Old Point Releases First Quarter 2014 Results

·	Net loans increase $8.9 million

·	Interest margin improves to 3.43%

·	Annualized net charge-offs decrease to 0.19% of total loans

Interest income declined $163 thousand when comparing the quarter ended March 31, 2014 to the same period in 2013.  However, interest expense declined by $224 thousand in the same periods, resulting in an increase to net interest income of $61 thousand.   Higher-cost funds, such as time deposits, were allowed to mature without being renewed.  As a result, the net interest margin increased from 3.19% during the first quarter of 2013 to 3.23% for all of 2013 and 3.43% for the first quarter of 2014.

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2014 was up when compared to the first quarter of 2013, primarily in the areas of income from fiduciary activities and other service charges, commissions and fees. Accounts managed by Old Point Trust are assessed fees based on the market value of the account's assets. Improvements in the equities markets led to higher asset values and thus higher fee income. The increase in other service charges, commissions and fees was mainly due to income from Penact and securities brokerage sales. In the fourth quarter of 2013, Old Point Trust acquired Penact, a company that provides administrative and valuation services for retirement plans.

Noninterest expense increased only 0.46% when comparing the first quarters of 2014 and 2013, with the largest increases in ATM and check losses and capital stock tax.  The increase in ATM and check losses in the first quarter of 2014 was partially due to a fraud loss.  Fraud losses in banks have become more prevalent during the past few years.  Old Point is proactive in its efforts to educate its customers regarding the fact that there are many ways that dishonest individuals may attempt to compromise sensitive personal information.  For the bank and trust subsidiaries, capital stock tax is paid to the state of Virginia instead of state income tax, and is based on the subsidiaries' capital less certain allowances.  One such allowance is based on holdings of U.S. Government agency securities.  As the composition of the bank subsidiary's securities portfolio has changed between 2012, 2013, and 2014, the level of U.S. Government agency securities decreased significantly and provided a smaller deduction for the purposes of calculating the capital stock tax. The increase in capital stock tax expense was more than offset by benefit to the interest margin and the reduction in income tax expense.

Certain categories of noninterest expense did decrease when comparing the first quarters of 2014 and 2013. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $68 thousand, partially due to reduction in staffing levels and due to vacancies in several mid-level positions.   Losses on sales and write-downs of other real estate owned also declined, as property values begin to recover from the recession.

Assets as of March 31, 2014 were $870.1 million, an increase of $5.8 million or 0.67% when compared to December 31, 2013.  Loan demand continued to improve in the first quarter of 2014, with loans increasing $8.9 million between December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014.  This loan growth was funded by reductions in the investment securities portfolio and cash and cash equivalents.  As loans generally bear higher rates of interest than securities, the shift in the mix of earning assets should provide additional increases to the net interest margin in subsequent quarters.
