Operating Results

 

Interest income increased $1.1 million, from $1.6 million during the second quarter of 2012 to $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2013. Interest income increased $1.4 million, from $3.9 million during the first half of 2012 to $5.3 million for the first half of 2013. A substantial increase in the average balance of loans held for investment was the primary factor driving these increases in interest income.

 

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2013 was $467,000, compared to $385,000 for the second quarter of 2012. Interest expense for the first half of 2013 period was $899,000, compared to $764,000 for the first half of 2012. These increased expenses were due primarily to a significant increase in total deposits.

 

Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2013, compared to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2012. This increase was primarily the result of a $92.3 million increase in average earning assets and a 21 basis point increase in the related yield. The impact of an $84.6 million increase in average interest bearing liabilities was partially offset by a 29 basis point decrease in cost of funds. Net interest margin was 3.49% and 3.04% for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $4.2 million for the first half of 2013, compared to $3.4 million for the first half of 2012. This increase was primarily the result of a $75.3 million increase in average earning assets partially offset by a 44 basis point decrease in the related yield. The impact of a $65.9 million increase in average interest bearing liabilities was partially offset by a 24 basis point decrease in cost of funds. Net interest margin was 3.87% and 4.15% for the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Noninterest income was relatively flat at $65,000 for the second quarter of 2013, compared to $71,000 for the second quarter of 2012. Noninterest income decreased from $183,000 in the first half of 2012 period, compared to $133,000 in the first half of 2013. This decrease was primarily the result of a $42,000 gain on the sale of available for sale securities in the 2012 period. The Company did not sell any available for sale securities during the first half of 2013.

 

 
 

Noninterest expense increased from $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2012 to $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2013. Noninterest expense increased from $3.5 million for the first half of 2012 to $3.9 million for the first half of 2013. These increases were primarily due to the hiring of two new Senior Vice Presidents and loan administrative fees relating to the Bank’s new guaranteed student loan program.

 

Balance Sheet and Asset Quality

 

The company's total assets were $229.5 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $178.7 million at December 31, 2012.

Total deposits were $205.4 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $154.4 million at December 31, 2012.
