Pre-provision core earnings* increase 13.3% from one year ago
 
 
Second quarter net income of $712,000
 
 
Portfolio loans increase 4.4% from one year ago

LORAIN, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 2011--LNB Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNBB) today reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 of $712,000. For the first six months of 2011 net income totaled $1,842,000 compared to $2,574,000 for the same period one year ago.
 
“The Company’s second quarter performance highlights some very positive trends,” said Daniel E. Klimas, president and chief executive officer of LNB Bancorp, Inc. “It was encouraging to see a marked improvement in core earnings and a significant decline in non-performing loans compared to year-end 2010. In addition, our continued focus on growing customer relationships and operational efficiencies resulted in healthy increases in both commercial and consumer loans and lower operating expenses for the quarter.”
 
Pre-provision core earnings* equaled $4,118,000 for the second quarter compared to $3,635,000 for the second quarter one year ago, an increase of 13.3 percent. For the first six months of 2011 pre-provision core earnings* totaled $7,614,000 compared to $7,372,000 for the first six months of 2010, an increase of 3.3 percent.
 
Portfolio loans at the end of the second quarter of 2011 totaled $830,312,000, a 4.4 percent increase from $795,451,000 at the end of the second quarter a year ago. Commercial loans grew 4.6 percent and consumer loans 14.3 percent over this period.
 
Noninterest expense was $8,522,000 for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $9,189,000 for the first quarter of 2011 and $9,150,000 for the fourth quarter of 2010.
 
At June 30, 2011 the Company’s non-performing loans totaled $37,954,000, or 4.57 percent of total loans, an improvement from $41,831,000, or 5.15 percent, at December 31, 2010. An increase in loan loss provision impacted net income for the quarter, said Klimas. “The increase was driven by a continued decline in the appraised value of properties and by write downs and charge-offs which we anticipate will position the Company to better dispose of problem assets.”
 
Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $394,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to net income of $925,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. For the first quarter of 2011, net income available to common shareholders was $811,000, or $0.10 per diluted share.
 
 
 

 
 
Net income available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $1,205,000, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1,937,000, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago.
 
Key Performance Measures
 
Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis for the second quarter of 2011 was $9,969,000, compared to $9,826,000 for the second quarter a year ago. The second quarter 2011 net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis was 3.64 percent compared to 3.61 percent one year ago. For the first six months of 2011, net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis totaled $19,707,000 compared to $19,728,000 for the same period one year ago. The continued lower interest rate environment has reduced the yield on the Company’s investment portfolio, which has negatively affected the net interest margin. For the first six months of 2011, the net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis was 3.63 percent, compared to 3.65 percent one year ago.
 
The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 totaled $3,345,000 compared to $2,109,000 for the second quarter of 2010. The increase in the provision was largely the result of a continued decrease in commercial real estate valuations and continued write-downs of asset values. The provision for loan losses for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 totaled $5,445,000, compared to $4,218,000 for the same period of 2010.
 
Noninterest income in the second quarter totaled $2,804,000, compared to $2,896,000 for the second quarter of 2010. Gains on the sale of loans were up in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period one year ago. Trust income and service charges on deposits were down from a year ago, primarily due to the Company’s exit from the retail investment business a year ago and the service charges on deposits being negatively impacted by new federal regulations regarding certain bank overdraft fees and charges. Noninterest income in the six month period ended June 30, 2011 totaled $5,875,000, compared to $5,547,000 for the same period of 2010.
 
Noninterest expense was $8,522,000 for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $8,958,000 for the second quarter of 2010. The decrease was largely driven by reduced equipment expense, professional fees, FDIC assessments and loan and collection expense. Other real estate owned expenses increased, primarily as a result of further write-downs in valuations and costs related to the disposition of several properties. Noninterest expense was $17,711,000 for the first six months 2011, compared to $17,651,000 for the same period of 2010.
 
Portfolio loans at the end of the second quarter of 2011 totaled $830,312,000, a 4.4 percent increase from the $795,451,000 at the end of the second quarter a year ago. Total assets for the second quarter of 2011 ended at $1,157,344,000, up from $1,153,955,000 at the end of the second quarter of 2010. Total deposits were $982,037,000, up 0.84 percent from $973,890,000 at the end of the second quarter of 2010.
 
At June 30, 2011, the Company’s non-performing loans totaled $37,954,000, or 4.57 percent of total loans, an improvement from $41,831,000, or 5.15 percent, at December 31, 2010. The allowance for possible loan losses was $17,351,000 at June 30, 2011, compared to $16,136,000 at December 31, 2010, equaling 2.09 percent of total loans at June 30, 2011 compared to 1.99 percent at December 31, 2010.
 
 
 

 
 
The Company’s net charge-offs increased to $3,309,000 in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $1,857,000 a year ago and $921,000 for the first quarter of 2011. Net charge-offs to average loans for the quarter ending June 30, 2011 was 1.63 percent, compared to 0.94 percent one year ago and 2.48 percent at December 31, 2010.
 
* Pre-provision core earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company’s management believes is useful in analyzing the Company’s underlying performance trends, particularly in periods of economic stress. Pre-provision core earnings is defined as income before income tax expense, adjusted to exclude the impact of provision for loan losses. Pre-provision core earnings is reconciled to the related GAAP financial measure in the “Reconciliation” table included after the consolidated financial statements and supplemental financial information included in this press release.

asset price deterioration, which has had and may continue to have a negative effect on the valuation of certain asset categories represented on the Company's balance sheet;
 
 
general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally (especially in northeastern Ohio), becoming less favorable than expected resulting in, among other things, further deterioration in credit quality of assets;

persisting volatility and limited credit availability in the financial markets, particularly if limitations on the Company's ability to raise funding to the extent required by banking regulators or otherwise or if initiatives undertaken by the U.S. government do not have the intended effect on the financial markets;
