PEOPLES FEDERAL BANCSHARES, INC. ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER AND YEAR TO DATE RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011
Brighton, Massachusetts, May 2, 2011. Peoples Federal Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: PEOP), the holding company for Peoples Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), announced second quarter and year to date earnings for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company reported net income of $824,000 or $0.12 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to net income of $861,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. For the six months ended March 31, 2011, the Company reported net income of $1.8 million or $0.27 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to net income of $1.7 million for the same period last year. The Company’s mutual-to-stock conversion occurred on July 6, 2010, therefore, earnings per share are not presented for periods where the shares were not outstanding for the entire period.
Net interest and dividend income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 totaled $4.1 million as compared to $4.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Noninterest income totaled $437,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $371,000 for the same period last year. Noninterest expense totaled $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits, increased professional fees associated with the operation as a public company and increases in other operating expenses in the 2011 period.
Net interest and dividend income for the six months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $8.2 million as compared to $7.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010. Noninterest income totaled $976,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $1.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010, which included a $210,000 gain on the sales of available-for-sale securities. Noninterest expense totaled $6.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $5.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits, increased professional fees associated with the operation as a public company and increases in other operating expenses in the 2011 period.
Since September 30, 2010, the Company's balance sheet has decreased by $17.4 million or 3.2%, to $528.6 million although net loans increased 4.2%. The increase in loans was primarily due to lending in the residential and commercial real estate loan categories. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $47.6 million to $66.2 million at March 31, 2011 from $113.9 million at September 30, 2010. This decrease was the result of investing a portion of the stock offering proceeds in available-for-sale securities as well as the increase in net loans. FHLB borrowings decreased by $10.0 million, or 30.3%, from September 30, 2010. Deposits decreased by $8.7 million to $382.2 million at March 31, 2011 from $390.8 million at September 30, 2010.
Non performing assets totaled $2.0 million or 0.38% of total assets at March 31, 2011, as compared to $3.0 million or 0.55% of total assets at September 30, 2010. Classified assets increased during the six months ended March 31, 2011 to $11.6 million as compared to $6.2 million as of September 30, 2010. The increase in classified assets is primarily due to one lending relationship, totaling $4.9 million, collateralized by a construction loan and further collateralized by other residential properties being classified substandard during the quarter. The Company did provide an additional $220,000 to the provision for loan losses during the six months ended March 31, 2011, reflecting a $16.0 million increase in net loans.
Maurice H. Sullivan, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented that “Peoples Federal Bancshares, Inc. has continued to focus on building a strong banking franchise that competes for both deposit and lending relationships in the greater Boston market that we serve. To that end, we expect to open a full service branch
location in West Newton, Massachusetts in the upcoming months. This new branch will be our first location in Middlesex County, Massachusetts and we look forward to expanding our franchise and serving customers in that portion of the greater Boston area.”
