Baltimore County Savings Bank, FSB
BCSB BANCORP, INC. REPORTS RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 2010
BCSB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BCSB), the holding company for Baltimore County Savings Bank, FSB, (the “Bank”) reported net income of $45,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2010, which represents the first quarter of its 2011 fiscal year, as compared to net income of $670,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009. When consideration is given to dividends and discount accretion on preferred shares issued under the U.S. Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program, the Company reported a net loss available to common stockholders of $111,000 or ($0.04) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to net income available to common stockholders of $514,000 or $0.18 per basic and diluted common share for the three months ended December 31, 2009.
During the three months ended December 31, 2010, earnings were negatively impacted by increased loan loss provisions and a decline in net interest income as compared to the corresponding period during the prior fiscal year.
Additional loan loss provisions during the three months ended December 31, 2010 were necessary to address increases in troubled assets. Current economic conditions were primarily responsible for the increased loss reserves. Nonperforming assets were $13.2 million at December 31, 2010 versus $12.8 million at September 30, 2010. Most of the nonperforming assets consisted of commercial loans, which increased to $12.5 million at December 31, 2010 from $12.1 million at September 30, 2010.
The decrease in net interest income during the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2009 was primarily due to declines in average balances and yields related to the Company’s loans and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. These reductions in net interest income were partially offset by lower interest expense on deposits as cost of funds on the deposit portfolio has continued to decline.
President and Chief Executive Officer Joseph J. Bouffard commented “Although disappointed with recent quarterly operating results, we are encouraged by reporting a small profit despite notable increases in loan loss provisions. We are also pleased to have repaid TARP during the March 31, 2011 quarter without raising additional capital and diluting shareholder interests. Not many institutions have been permitted by their regulators to repay TARP in this manner. We believe this demonstrates our financial strength”.

(1) Nonperforming status denotes loans on which, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is questionable. Also included in this category at December 31, 2010 are $3.2 million in Troubled Debt Restructurings, all of which are not delinquent. Reporting guidance requires disclosure of these loans as non-performing even though they are current in terms of principal and interest payments.
