CEO Comments
“As we recently celebrated the one-year anniversary
of integrating Hometown Bank, the merits of the acquisition are
evident in our financial performance in several key areas.
Deposit growth, asset quality and a strong equity position
highlight our balance sheet. A more robust footprint in our
markets along with efficiencies gained from the acquisition have
led to a steady increase in earnings and earnings per share.
Liquidity and earnings ratios both improved during the quarter
despite continued competitive and interest rate pressures.
Even with these many positive results, our share price is not fully
reflecting what we feel is its intrinsic value. As such, we
began repurchasing our shares during the second quarter under an
existing stock repurchase plan. We enter the second half of
2019 in a strong position to grow by focusing on being a trusted
business partner to our valued customers while continuing to return
value to our shareholders.”
- Shaun A. Burke, President and Chief Executive Officer

The following were items impacting the second
quarter operating results as compared to the same quarter in 2018
and the financial condition results compared to December 31,
2018:
Interest income – Total interest income
increased $921,000 (9%) during the quarter. The increase is
primarily driven by higher interest rates on earning assets when
compared to the prior year quarter. The average balance of
interest-earning assets decreased $0.7 million (< 1%), while the
yield on average interest earning assets increased 42 basis points
to 5.03%. Compared to the second quarter of 2018, the average
loan balance portfolio decreased $28.9 million, with loan yields
increasing by 49 basis points to 5.43%. Loan accretion
of $452,000 was recognized on loans acquired from Hometown compared
to $455,000 in the same quarter in 2018.
Interest expense - Total interest expense
increased $1,042,000 (43%) during the quarter primarily driven by
higher interest rates on all deposit accounts. The liquidity
challenges among institutions in our markets have created
significant competitive pressures on deposit rates. The
average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased $9.1
million (1%), while the average cost of interest-bearing
liabilities increased 55 basis points to 1.79%.
To fund its asset growth and maintain prudent liquidity
levels going forward, the Company will continue to utilize a
cost-effective mix of retail and commercial core deposits along
with non-core, wholesale
funding.
See the Analysis of Net Interest Income and
Margin table below for the first quarter.
Asset Quality, Provision for Loan Loss Expense and
Allowance for Loan Losses – The Company’s nonperforming
assets decreased to $12.5 million as of June 30, 2019, compared to
$14.2 million as of December 31, 2018.
Based on its reserve analysis and methodology, the Company
recorded a provision for loan loss expenses during the quarter of
$100,000 compared to $500,000 recorded during the prior year
quarter. At June 30, 2019, the allowance for loan losses of
$7.7 million was 1.01% of gross loans outstanding (excluding
mortgage loans held for sale), compared to 1.02% reserved as of
December 31, 2018.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
acquisition accounting, the loans acquired through the acquisition
of Hometown were recorded at fair value; therefore, there was no
allowance associated with Hometown’s loans at acquisition.
Management continues to evaluate the allowance needed on the
acquired Hometown loans factoring in the net remaining discount of
$1.6 million at June 30, 2019.
Management believes the allowance for loan losses is at a
sufficient level to provide for loan losses in the Bank’s existing
loan portfolio.
Non-interest Income – Non-interest income
decreased $21,000 (1%) during the quarter compared to the same
quarter in 2018. This was primarily due to a reduction in
service charge income of $133,000 (24%), and a decline in both
income from the sale of mortgage loans of $55,000 (9%) and realized
gains on foreclosed assets of $36,000 (47%) when compared to
2018. Offsetting these items were increased gains realized
from the sale of available-for-sale securities of $89,000 (860%)
and an increase of $79,000 (17%) from interchange and related debit
card income when compared to the same period in 2018.
Non-interest Expense – Non-interest expenses
decreased $3,397,000 (33%) compared to the same period in
2018. This was primarily due to merger expenses decreasing
from the prior year quarter by $3,170,000 (99%).
Other decreases noted were in salaries and employee benefits of
$149,000 (4%) and data processing expenses of $44,000 (10%),
respectively, both due to efficiencies gained following the
merger. Core deposit intangible expense decreased $101,000
(46%) compared to 2018. The primary increase in this category
was in occupancy expenses of $69,000 (7%) due to additional
leasehold improvement expenses and facility upgrades incurred after
the Hometown acquisition.
Capital – At June 30, 2019, stockholders’
equity increased to $83.7 million compared to $80.5 million at
December 31, 2018. On a per common share basis, tangible book
value increased to $17.91 at June 30, 2019 as compared to $17.18 as
of December 31, 2018.
From a regulatory capital standpoint, all capital ratios for the
Bank remain strong and above regulatory requirements.
Non-Generally Accepted Accounting
Principle (GAAP) Financial Measures
In addition to the GAAP financial results presented in this
press release, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures
discussed below. These non-GAAP measures are provided to
enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current
financial performance. Additionally, Company management
believes that this presentation enables meaningful comparison of
financial performance in various periods. However, the
non-GAAP financial results presented should not be considered a
substitute for results that are presented in a manner consistent
with GAAP. A limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures
presented is that the adjustments concern gains, losses or expenses
that the Company does expect to continue to recognize; the
adjustments of these items should not be construed as an inference
that these gains or expenses are unusual, infrequent or
non-recurring. Therefore, Company management believes that
both GAAP measures of its financial performance and the respective
non-GAAP measures should be considered together.
Operating Income
Operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts
net income for the following non-operating items:
- Gains (losses) on sales of investment securities
- Gains (losses) on foreclosed assets held for sale
- Provision for loan loss expense
- Provision for income taxes
- Merger costs
