The fourth quarter of 2020 did not include a provision for credit losses.
David Brager, Chief Executive Officer of Citizens Business Bank, commented “The worldwide pandemic, stay-at-home orders, business shut-downs, and a near zero interest rate environment all combined to create a very challenging environment for financial institutions to operate and succeed in. I am proud to say that Citizens Business Bank not only remained open to service our customers and communities, but also excelled in many areas. This is due in large part to the dedication and focus of our associates throughout the Bank, and the long standing relationships that we have developed with our customers.”

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, commonly referred to as CECL which replaced the “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model over the life of the loan, effective on January 1, 2020. A $23.5 million provision for credit losses was recorded in the first half of 2020, due to the economic disruption and forecasted impact resulting from COVID-19. No provision for credit losses was recorded in either the third or fourth quarter of 2020. During the fourth quarter of 2020, we experienced minimal credit charge-offs of $182,000 and total recoveries of $5,000, resulting in net charge-offs of $177,000. The Company’s economic forecast of macro-economic variables was generally consistent with the forecast at the end of the third quarter, with modest forecast changes, both positive and negative, for certain economic variables. No loan loss provision was recorded for the fourth quarter of 2019.
Noninterest income was $12.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $13.2 million for the third quarter of 2020 and $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The fourth quarter of 2020 included $1.6 million in death benefits that exceeded the asset value of certain BOLI policies and a $365,000 net gain on the sale of two OREOs, partially offset by a $715,000 decrease in swap fee income quarter-over-quarter. The third quarter of 2020 included a $1.7 million net gain on the sale of one of our bank owned buildings, related to a banking center that was closed in September.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, noninterest income was $49.9 million, compared to $59.0 million for 2019. Noninterest income for 2019 included a $5.7 million net gain from the legal settlement of an eminent domain condemnation of one of our banking center buildings and $4.8 million in net gains on the sale of bank owned buildings, compared with a $1.7 million net gain on the sale of one of our owned buildings in 2020. Income from our BOLI policies increased year-over-year by $2.3 million, primarily from death benefits that exceeded cash surrender values. Noninterest income decreases in 2020 of $3.4 million in service charges on deposit accounts and $1.3 million in fees on bankcard services, were partially offset by higher swap fee income in 2020 of $3.2 million.
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $48.3 million, compared to $49.6 million for the third quarter of 2020 and $49.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The $1.3 million quarter-over-quarter decrease included a $1.9 million decline in salaries and employee benefits, primarily due to $1.1 million in additional bonus expense for “Thank You Awards” paid to qualified Bank employees during the third quarter of 2020. The third quarter of 2020 also reflected a $700,000 write-down of one OREO property. Professional services increased $798,000 quarter-over-quarter. Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased by $2.0 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, due primarily to a decrease in employee benefit expense. An increase of $900,000 in regulatory assessment expense in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to the prior year quarter, resulted from the final application of assessment credits provided by the FDIC at the end of the second quarter of 2020. As a percentage of average assets, noninterest expense was 1.37% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 1.44% for the third quarter of 2020 and 1.71% for the fourth quarter of 2019.
Noninterest expense of $192.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $5.8 million lower than the prior year. There were no merger related expenses related to the Community Bank acquisition for 2020, compared to $6.4 million for 2019. The year-over-year decrease also included a $1.4 million decrease in CDI amortization and a $1.4 million decrease in marketing and promotion expense. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in professional services expense and a $1.2 million increase in OREO expense primarily due to a $700,000 write-down of one OREO property. As a percentage of average assets, noninterest expense was 1.49% for 2020, compared to 1.76% for 2019.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income, before provision for credit losses, was $105.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $103.3 million for the third quarter of 2020 and $107.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Our net interest margin (tax equivalent) was 3.33% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 3.34% for the third quarter of 2020 and 4.24% for the fourth quarter of 2019. Total average earning asset yields (tax equivalent) were 3.41% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 3.45% for the third quarter of 2020 and 4.44% for the fourth quarter of 2019. The decrease in earning asset yield from the prior quarter was due to a combination of an 18 basis point decrease in investment yields and a change in asset mix with loan balances declining to 65.6% of earning assets on average for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 67.1% for the third quarter of 2020. Partially offsetting the impact of the change in asset mix was a 9 basis point increase in average loan yields, which benefited from higher prepayment penalty fees of $1.0 million. In addition, interest and fee income from Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans increased from approximately $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2020, to $10.5 million in the fourth quarter. The decrease in earning asset yield compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 was primarily due to a 59 basis point decrease in loan yields from 5.15% in the year ago quarter to 4.56% for the fourth quarter of 2020, a 62 basis point decline in investment yields, as well as a change in asset mix resulting from a $1.24 billion increase in average balances at the Federal Reserve. Discount accretion on acquired loans decreased $2.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. The significant decline in interest rates since the start of the pandemic has had a negative impact on loan yields, which after excluding discount accretion, nonaccrual interest income, and the impact from PPP loans, declined by 38 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. The significant decline in interest rates also impacted the tax equivalent yield on investments, which decreased by 62 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2019. Average earning assets increased from the third quarter of 2020 by $229.8 million to $12.73 billion for the fourth quarter of 2020. Of that increase in earning assets, $208.6 million represented an increase in average investment securities, while average loans declined by $35.0 million. Average earning assets increased by $2.64 billion from the fourth quarter of 2019. Loans on average grew by $851.1 million, including PPP loan balances that were about $1.0 billion, on average, during the fourth quarter of 2020. Investments increased by $505.3 million, while balances at the Federal Reserve grew on average by $1.24 billion compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.
Total cost of funds declined to 0.09% for the fourth quarter of 2020 from 0.11% for the third quarter of 2020 and 0.22% in the year ago quarter. On average, noninterest-bearing deposits were 61.34% of total deposits during the current quarter. Noninterest-bearing deposits grew on average by $201.1 million, or 2.99%, from the third quarter of 2020. Interest-bearing deposits and customer repurchase agreements grew on average by $174.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2020. The cost of interest-bearing deposits and customer repurchase agreements declined from 0.27% for the prior quarter to 0.22% for the fourth quarter of 2020. In comparison to the fourth quarter of 2019, our overall cost of funds decreased by 13 basis points, as average noninterest-bearing deposits grew by $1.63 billion, compared to $858.9 million in growth in interest-bearing deposits, and the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased by 29 basis points.
