Old Point Releases Third Quarter 2012 Earnings, Posts Profit of $2.8 Million

· Net income increases
· Net charge-offs decrease
· Deposits increase $40.8 million

October 23, 2012 Hampton, VA                                                                   Old Point Financial Corporation (NASDAQ "OPOF") posted a profit of $2.8 million, or $0.56 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $368 thousand over the same period in 2011. The increase in net income was due to an increase in realized gains on available-for-sale securities, from $437 thousand in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $1.7 million in the same period in 2012. A $950 thousand reduction in the provision for loan losses when comparing the first nine months of 2011 and 2012 also contributed to the increase in net income. Decreases in loans and in nonperforming assets between the two periods allowed management to reduce the provision.

In the third quarter of 2012, net income increased to $1.1 million, as compared to $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2011. Although net income between the two quarters was similar, the composition of income and expenses shifted considerably in certain areas. Due to lower interest income on loans, net interest income after the provision for loan losses was down $979 thousand between the two quarters. In contrast, noninterest income was up $905 thousand as a result of higher realized gains on available-for-sale securities and higher income from bank-owned life insurance policies.

On September 30, 2012, nonperforming assets were 22.59% lower than nonperforming assets as of September 30, 2011. Nonperforming assets declined primarily due to a $4.2 million decline in foreclosed assets. Net loans charged off in the first nine months of 2012 were 50.64% lower than net charge-offs in the same period of 2011.

Assets as of September 30, 2012 were $887.9 million, an increase of $38.4 million, or 4.52%, compared to assets as of December 31, 2011. This growth in assets was driven by increased deposits; low-cost deposits in particular grew $28.0 million. As quality loan demand has decreased in recent years, Old Point is investing excess funds in securities that can be readily liquidated when loan demand recovers. Between December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012, securities available-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents increased $100.5 million.

 
 

 

The year-to-date net interest margin for 2012 was 3.47%, down 36 basis points from 3.83% for the same period in 2011. Until recently, Old Point’s net interest margin had improved as higher-cost time deposits repriced to the current, lower market rates. While the average rate on liabilities continued to decrease, the rate of change has slowed over the last year as most longer-term deposits had already repriced. In addition, the average rate on loans decreased between the third quarter of 2011 and the third quarter of 2012, as higher-yielding loans paid off or were renewed at current, lower rates. More significantly, the composition of earning assets has shifted: as average total loans have decreased from a lack of quality loan demand, a larger percent of earning assets have been invested in lower-yielding securities. Since investment securities typically yield less than loans, this shift to lower-yielding investments has had an impact on the Bank’s net interest margin in 2012.

In the third quarter and the first nine months of 2012, noninterest income was up $905 thousand and $2.3 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2011. All categories of noninterest income except service charges on deposit accounts increased in both the three and nine month comparisons between 2011 and 2012. The largest increases were in income from bank-owned life insurance and realized gains on the sale of investment securities. Income from bank-owned life insurance was significantly impacted by the receipt of $475 thousand in proceeds from the death benefit on an insured former officer. Gains on investment securities increased due to a restructuring of the investment portfolio. During 2012, Old Point sold government agency securities and reinvested the proceeds in mortgage-backed securities. In addition to providing an enhancement to noninterest income in the current year, these investment transactions improved the portfolio’s cash flows and yields, while only marginally increasing its duration.

Other service charges, commissions and fees also increased, growing $127 thousand and $246 thousand for the third quarter and first nine months 2012, respectively, over the same periods in 2011. Revenues from merchant processing services and investment brokerage services were the main cause of this increase. Old Point has been focusing on diversifying noninterest income in response to declining interest income and new regulatory restrictions on some sources of noninterest income.

 
 

 

In 2012, Old Point’s noninterest expense increased $214 thousand in the third quarter and $1.0 million year-to-date, as compared to the same periods in 2011. These increases were due to growth in salaries and benefits, which were affected by Old Point’s strategic initiatives. Management aims to expand the corporate banking line of business and focus on increasing loans and noninterest income. New positions were added to focus on small business lending, treasury services, and lending in areas other than commercial real estate.

The increase in salaries and benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was partially offset by decreases in expenses related to foreclosed assets. Compared to the same periods in 2011, foreclosure losses and expenses on a combined basis decreased $275 thousand in the third quarter of 2012 and $177 thousand in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. These expenses have declined as Old Point has worked successfully to sell these assets. Between September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2012, foreclosed assets decreased $4.2 million, or 38.01%, causing expenses to decline as well.

In the third quarter 2012, Old Point participated in a number of community initiatives and events, including Zoo Fest, Hampton Bay Days, and the Bra-ha-ha. In September, Old Point participated in the United Way Day of Caring with 6 teams of volunteers stretching from Norfolk to Williamsburg. Additionally, Old Point National Bank received numerous recognitions and awards, including Volunteer Hampton Roads' Velocity Award, Inside Business’s Best Places to Work in Hampton Roads, and the Daily Press’s CHOICE Awards Best Bank Winner. Also, to wrap up the third quarter, Martin Cross, Senior Vice President at Old Point, was named one of Inside Business’s Top Forty Under 40.
