Bancorp Rhode Island, Inc. (NASDAQ: BARI), the parent company of Bank Rhode Island, today reported net income of $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of 51.7 percent compared to net income of $1.5 million for the first quarter 2009. The Company’s diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.48 for the first quarter 2010, an increase of 118.2 percent compared to diluted EPS of $0.22, after preferred stock dividends and discount accretion, for the first quarter 2009.

Net interest income for the first quarter 2010 was $13.1 million, compared to $11.1 million in the first quarter 2009, and $13.0 million in the fourth quarter 2009. The increase in net interest income was driven by improvement in net interest margin. Net interest margin for the first quarter 2010 rose to 3.52 percent, an increase of 44 basis points from the first quarter 2009, and an increase of 10 basis points from fourth quarter 2009.

At March 31, 2010, the Company’s tier 1 capital ratio was approximately 7.7 percent and its total risk-based capital ratio was approximately 12.0 percent.

“While many expect 2010 to remain a challenging year, we got off to a great start and are pleased with our strong financial results in the first quarter,” commented President and CEO, Merrill W. Sherman. “At BancorpRI, our capital strength, credit quality and earnings capacity enhance our competitive position and enable us to capitalize on marketplace opportunities to grow our franchise.”

Noninterest income was $2.3 million for the first quarter 2010, compared to $2.4 million in both the first quarter 2009 and the fourth quarter 2009. Noninterest income for the first quarter 2010 reflects a charge of $571,000 incurred as the result of an investment security deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, offset by a $475,000 gain on the sale of mortgage-backed securities.

Noninterest expense was $10.5 million in the first quarter 2010, compared to $9.6 million in the first quarter 2009, and $9.9 million in the fourth quarter 2009. The expense increase from first quarter 2009 was primarily driven by increases in compensation and expenses related to loan workout and other real estate owned.

The provision for loan and lease losses remained unchanged at $1.6 million for the first quarter 2010, compared to the first quarter 2009. Net charge-offs were $1.5 million for the first quarter 2010, compared to $851,000 in the first quarter 2009. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of total loans and leases was 1.48 percent at March 31, 2010, down slightly from 1.49 percent at December 31, 2009.

As of March 31, 2010, the Company’s commercial loan and lease portfolio totaled $752.2 million, an increase of $19.8 million or 2.7 percent from year-end 2009, and up $65.5 million or 9.5 percent from March 31, 2009. Consumer loans were $201.4 million as of March 31, 2010, down slightly from $206.2 million at year-end 2009. Residential mortgage loans were $170.2 million, a decrease of $3.1 million or 1.8 percent from December 31, 2009.

Total deposits were $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2010, up $8.8 million or 0.8 percent from year-end 2009. The increase from year-end 2009 reflects an increase of $17.8 million in core deposits (demand deposits, NOW, money markets and savings accounts) offset by a decrease of $9.0 million in certificates of deposit. The increase in core deposits from year-end 2009 was primarily driven by money market and savings accounts. Core deposits at March 31, 2010, represented 65.8 percent of total deposits compared to 64.8 percent at year-end 2009.

“Our commercial loan portfolio has grown for the past 13 quarters. The growth reflects the ongoing execution of our strategic plan to shift our balance sheet to a more commercial profile,” said Sherman. She added, “Our ability to grow the commercial loan portfolio through a difficult economic environment is a testament to our team’s proactive management of credit quality and also contributes to our success in expanding our checking and savings deposits.”

Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2010, totaled $16.4 million, or 1.03 percent of total assets, down from $20.0 million, or 1.26 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2009, and down from $17.4 million, or 1.13 percent of total assets, at March 31, 2009.

Total assets at March 31, 2010, were $1.6 billion, a slight decrease of $3.2 million or 0.2 percent from year-end 2009. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in available for sale securities and the residential mortgage portfolio offset by the growth in the commercial loan and lease portfolio.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.17 per share. The dividend will be paid on June 9, 2010, to shareholders of record on May 19, 2010.
