MANHATTAN BANCORP REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR QUARTER AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010

 

LOS ANGELES, CA — January 31, 2011 — Manhattan Bancorp (“Company”) (OTCBB: MNHN), the holding company of Bank of Manhattan, N. A. (“Bank”), and MBFS Holdings, Inc., which owns a majority interest in Manhattan Capital Markets LLC, announced today its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, reflecting sound growth, an improving deposit mix, increasing net interest margin and continued excellent asset quality in 2010.

 

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE YEAR

(as of, or for the periods ended December 31, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009)

 

·                  Total assets ended the year at $152.9 million.

·                  Total deposits increased 10.2%, to $122 million, while demand deposits and money market accounts increased 64.1%, to $84.6 million.

·                  Total loans outstanding increased 15.8% to $92.7 million

·                  Credit quality remained strong with no past due loans, no non-performing loans and no Other Real Estate Owned.

·                  The Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses represented 2.02% of total outstanding loans as of December 31, 2010 compared with 1.50% of total outstanding loans as of December 31, 2009.

·                  Annual net interest margin expanded to 4.43% for 2010 compared to 4.00% for 2009.

·                  Capital ratios exceed the levels required to be considered “well-capitalized” under generally applicable regulatory guidelines (the highest level determined by the regulatory agencies), with a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 25.3%, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 24.0% and Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 18.1%.

 

President & Chief Executive Officer Terry L. Robinson, who assumed the lead position at Manhattan Bancorp and Bank of Manhattan effective January 1, 2011, stated “We are beginning the year with a proven team of professional bankers that have the ability to enable small businesses and professionals based in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County to experience the benefits of banking with a financially sound community bank committed to delivering superior service.”

 

“While the Company reported losses again in 2010, our loan quality and capital remain strong and we are confident we have the infrastructure and leadership in place to report improving trends in operating results going forward.  Our rather unique company structure that affiliates a community bank containing a significant retail mortgage division with a broker-dealer has taken more time to assemble than originally anticipated, but we believe the Company is now positioned to  benefit from the synergies we envisioned,” stated Board Chairman Grant Couch.

 

At December 31, 2010, the Company’s shareholder equity, including minority interest, was $24.3 million. The allowance for loan losses was $1,877,133 as of December 31, 2010, compared to $1,202,494 as of December 31, 2009. The Bank continues to take a very proactive approach in the recognition of any potential losses within the loan portfolio. The Company reported a net loss of $1,316,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 and $4,610,000 for the year 2010.

 



 

The Bank, which opened for business on August 15, 2007, is a full service bank headquartered in the South Bay area of Los Angeles, California.  The Bank’s primary focus is relationship banking and residential mortgages to entrepreneurs, family-owned and closely-held middle market businesses, real estate investors and professional service firms. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, MBFS Holdings, Inc., also owns a majority interest in Manhattan Capital Markets LLC.  Manhattan Capital Markets LLC is a holding company for multiple wholly-owned subsidiaries, including BOM Capital LLC, a full service mortgage-centric broker/dealer.
