Minerva, Ohio — January 28, 2014 (OTCBB: CBKM) Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Consumers) today reported net income of $755 thousand for the second fiscal quarter of 2014, an increase of $8 thousand, or 1.1%, from the same period last year and an increase of $134 thousand, or 21.6%, from the previous quarter of September 30, 2013. Earnings per share for the second fiscal quarter of 2014 were $0.28 compared to $0.36 for the same period ended December 31, 2012. Earnings per share declined for the second fiscal quarter of 2014 as a result of the additional 655,668 outstanding shares issued for the rights offering that was completed in July 2013.

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, net income was $1.4 million in both periods. Fiscal year-to-date net income per share was $0.52 compared to $0.66 for the same period last year.

 

Return on average assets and return on average equity for the six months ended December 31, 2013 were 0.76% and 7.36%, respectively, compared to 0.79% and 9.46%, respectively, for the same period last year. The return on average equity declined from the same period last year due to an $8.5 million increase in average equity mainly as a result of the $9.2 million in net proceeds from the rights offering that was completed in July 2013.

 

Assets at December 31, 2013 totaled $364.2 million, an increase of $20.7 million from June 30, 2013. Securities increased by $19.3 million, with this growth being funded by a $5.5 million increase in deposits and by a $9.7 million increase in shareholders’ equity. The growth in shareholders’ equity was primarily the result of the funds received from the rights offering that was completed in July 2013.

 

Ralph J. Lober, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our continued emphasis on non-interest income has resulted in steady increases in several other income categories. This, along with increases in both the net interest margin and net interest income from the previous quarter, contributed to strong second quarter results. Our sales and marketing efforts and our focus on developing complete customer relationships continue to drive asset growth.”

 

Net interest income for the second fiscal quarter of 2014 increased by $112 thousand from the same period last year, with interest income increasing by $41 thousand and interest expense decreasing by $71 thousand. The net interest margin was 3.85% for the current quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared to 3.79% for the previous quarter ended September 30, 2013 and 3.94% for the same period last year. The Corporation’s yield on average interest-earning assets was 4.14% for the three months ended December 31, 2013, a decline from 4.33% for the same period last year. The Corporation’s cost of funds decreased to 0.39% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from 0.52% for the same period last year.

 

Other income increased by $59, or 8.7%, to $737 thousand for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014 compared with $678 thousand for the same period last year. This was primarily the result of an increase of $19 thousand from the debit card interchange income and a $30 thousand increase from gain on sale of securities.

 

 
 

 

Other expenses increased $196 thousand, or 7.2%, for the second fiscal quarter of 2014 from the same period last year. The increase in other expenses is primarily the result of higher salaries and employee benefit expenses and consulting fees.

 

Non-performing loans were $2.4 million at December 31, 2013, compared with $1.1 million at June 30, 2013 and $1.7 million at December 31, 2012. Non-performing loans increased as a result of placing on non-accrual a $1.4 million commercial real estate credit that is well secured by two farms and multiple homes. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 103.20% at December 31, 2013 compared with 223.06% at June 30, 2013 and 135.88% at December 31, 2012. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans at December 31, 2013 was 1.13% and annualized net charge-offs to total loans were 0.16% for the six month period ended December 31, 2013 compared with 0.05% for the same period last year.
