Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Announces Second Quarter 2011 Operating Highlights
ATLANTA, July 28, 2011 - Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (the Bank) today released unaudited financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. The Bank will announce full unaudited financial results in its Form 10-Q filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is expected to be filed on or about August 10, 2011.
The Bank reported net income of approximately $38 million for the second quarter 2011, a decrease of approximately $37 million from net income of approximately $75 million for second quarter 2010. During the second quarter of 2010, the Bank reduced its provision for credit losses on a receivable due from an insolvent derivative counterparty by $49 million, which resulted in an increase in income for that period. The receivable was subsequently sold by the Bank during 2010; the receivable and related provision were reduced to zero. As of June 30 2011, the Bank had total assets of approximately $116.8 billion, a decrease of $15 billion, or 11.4 percent, from December 31, 2010.
The Bank's retained earnings balance was approximately $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately $60 million, or 5.32 percent, from December 31, 2010. Capital stock decreased from approximately $7.2 billion at December 31, 2010 to approximately $6.3 billion at June 30, 2011.
The Bank's second quarter 2011 performance resulted in an annualized return on equity (ROE) of 2.01 percent as compared to 3.64 percent for second quarter 2010. The ROE spread to average three-month LIBOR decreased to 1.75 percent for the second quarter 2011 compared to 3.20 percent for the second quarter 2010.
"Despite the current economic and regulatory environment, the Bank achieved a positive net income in the second quarter," said President and CEO Wesley McMullan. "We are focused on creating valuable partnerships with shareholders to deliver competitively-priced products that serve their current and future lending needs, as well as helping them to mitigate balance sheet risks."
