Today Idaho First Bank (OTCQB: IDFB) (OTCBB: IDFB) reported financial results for 2011. Continuing the improving quarterly trends, the Bank reported net income of $71,000 for the fourth quarter. The net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 compares favorably to the net loss of $391,000 in the fourth quarter of 2010. The quarterly income was attributable to increased net interest income from loan growth, reduced provision for credit losses and a record quarter for the Bank's mortgage operation. "The Board is proud of the hard work of staff and management in reaching our second consecutive quarter of profitability," stated Mark Miller, Chairman of the Board of Directors.

For the full year of 2011, the Bank reported a loss of $143,000, significantly lower than the loss of $1,978,000 for 2010. Continuing improvement in credit portfolio performance trends resulted in a decline in the provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses for 2011 was $250,000 compared to $1,550,000 in 2010. Other major contributors to the improving operating results were a 21% growth in loans outstanding, 30% increase in mortgage banking income and a 13% reduction in non-interest expenses.

"We are pleased to see that our focus on credit management, improving mortgage income, and close management of our non-interest expenses are resulting in profitable operations. By focusing on these areas and continuing to work closely with our clients, we believe the Bank will be able to sustain profitability," stated Greg Lovell, President of the Bank.

Nonperforming assets declined 34% from $2.9 million at December 31, 2010, to $1.9 million at December 31, 2011. Nonperforming loans decreased from 3.52% to 1.63% of total loans while coverage of our non-performing loans by the allowance climbed from 55% to 100%. Mr. Lovell commented, "We are gratified by the significant drop in nonperforming assets. We feel that the Bank has survived the worst of the economic crisis and that nonperforming assets can continue to improve." He cautioned however, "The on-going economic condition of our primary market continues under stress and could adversely affect future performance."

Stockholders' equity was $4.7 million at December 31, 2011, or 6% of assets. Book value per share was 59 cents per share.
