Friendly Hills Bank (the "bank") (OTCBB: FHLB) reported results for
the second quarter of 2013.
For the six month period ending June 30, 2013, the bank reported
a profit of $258,000 or $0.16 per diluted share of common stock.
This figure includes a $68,000 increase in the value of interest
rate caps, a $181,000 gain on securities sold, and a $99,000
provision for loan losses. The bank reported a profit of $172,000
or $0.11 per diluted share of common stock for the six months ended
June 30, 2012. This figure includes a $20,000 increase in the value
of interest rate caps.
As of June 30, 2013, the bank reported total assets of $99.7
million, a 1% increase from $98.9 million as of June 30, 2012. The
bank's loan portfolio, net of unearned income, increased 2% from
$57.3 million as of June 30, 2012, to $58.6 million as of June 30,
2013. The portfolio remains diversified with $26.1 million or 43%
in Commercial & Industrial Loans to local businesses (including
$16.3 million in Owner Occupied Commercial Real Estate Loans),
$14.7 million or 25% in Residential Real Estate Loans to investors
and $13.1 million or 22% in Commercial Real Estate Loans to
investors. The bank has an additional $16.3 million in unfunded
loan commitments.
The bank's overall deposit base has increased 1% in the twelve
months ended June 30, 2013, from $77.1 million as of June 30, 2012,
to $78.0 million as of June 30, 2013. Non-interest bearing deposits
continue to form a substantial part of the deposit base (42%),
growing from $29.7 million to $33.0 million as of June 30, 2013.
During the same time period interest-bearing deposits decreased 5%
from $47.4 million to $45.0 million on June 30, 2013. The bank has
no deposits which were sourced through brokers or other wholesale
funding sources.
At June 30, 2013, shareholders' equity was $12.6 million and the
bank's total risk-based capital ratio was 19%, significantly
exceeding the "well-capitalized" level of 10% prescribed under
current regulatory requirements. The bank also continues to
maintain substantial liquidity positions, retaining significant
balances of liquidity as well as available collateralized
borrowings and other potential sources of liquidity.
"The continued narrowing of interest rate margins has had a
significant impact on the Company's primary revenue driver which is
Net Interest Income," commented Jeffrey K. Ball, Chief Executive
Officer. "While we have partially offset this trend with growth in
the loan portfolio, Net Interest Income before Provision for Credit
Losses has dropped 11% over the first six months of this year in
comparison to the same period last year. We have offset this
decline in revenue over the first six months of the year by
reducing our Operating Expenses by 7% compared to the same time
period a year ago. We continue to source quality loan opportunities
while maintaining our strong underwriting standards with sufficient
capital and liquidity to support our focus on long-term shareholder
value."
The bank also announced that its Chief Executive Officer,
Jeffrey K. Ball, has been elected Chairman of the California
Bankers Association and began serving a one year term in May. The
California Bankers Association is one of the largest state trade
associations in the country and represents over 200 institutions of
all sizes doing business in the State of California.
