Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ-CTBI) reports earnings for the second quarter 2014 of $12.2 million, or $0.70 per basic share, compared to $11.9 million, or $0.70 per basic share, earned during the second quarter 2013 and $10.1 million, or $0.59 per basic share, earned during the first quarter 2014.  The increased net income for the quarter was primarily due to decreases in our loan loss provision and noninterest expense with lower net other real estate owned expense and fewer operating losses.  Year-to-date earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $22.3 million, or $1.29 per basic share, compared to $23.8 million, or $1.39 per basic share earned during the first six months of 2013.  The variance from prior year is due to decreased net interest income and noninterest income, partially offset by decreases in our provision for loan losses and noninterest expense.

On June 2, 2014, CTBI distributed a 10% stock dividend to shareholders of record on May 15, 2014.  All share data has been restated accordingly.

2nd Quarter 2014 Highlights

v
CTBI’s basic earnings per share for the quarter was flat to prior year second quarter but increased $0.11 from first quarter 2014.  Year-to-date basic earnings per share decreased $0.10 from prior year.

v
Net interest income for the quarter decreased 1.5% from prior year second quarter but increased 0.2% from prior quarter as our net interest margin decreased 7 basis points and 5 basis points, respectively, for those time periods.  Average earning assets increased 0.6% from second quarter 2013 and 0.7% from prior quarter while our yield on average earning assets decreased 14 basis points and 6 basis points, respectively.  The yield on all earning asset portfolios declined quarter over quarter, while the cost of interest bearing funds remained stable.  Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 1.4% from prior year.

v
Nonperforming loans at $44.5 million increased $3.0 million from June 30, 2013 and $2.1 million from March 31, 2014, primarily due to one credit relationship which management has reviewed and considers to be well secured and in the process of collection.  Nonperforming assets at $77.6 million decreased $7.1 million from June 30, 2013 and $1.1 million from March 31, 2014.

v
Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 were $0.7 million, or 0.11% of average loans annualized, compared to $3.5 million, or 0.54%, experienced for the second quarter 2013 and $1.7 million, or 0.27%, for the first quarter 2014.  Year-to-date net charge-offs declined from 0.38% of average loans to 0.19%.

v
Our loan loss provision for the quarter decreased $2.9 million from prior year second quarter and $0.6 million from prior quarter.  Year-to-date provision decreased $3.1 million.  The decline in our loan loss provision was primarily due to the trend of decreasing net losses to average loans resulting in a 2 basis point reduction in our allowance for loan and lease losses.  The reduction in our allowance for loan and lease losses impacted our second quarter 2014 earnings per basic share by $0.02.
 
v
Noninterest income decreased 17.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 but increased 9.0% from prior quarter.  Noninterest income for the first six months of 2014 decreased 16.5% from prior year.  The decrease from prior year was primarily attributable to decreases in gains on sales of loans, deposit service charges, loan related fees resulting from the fluctuation in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights, and other noninterest income due to the prior year death benefits received in bank owned life insurance.

v
Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased 2.8% from prior year second quarter and 6.0% from prior quarter.  The quarterly improvement is due to decreases in net other real estate owned expense and operating losses.  Noninterest expense for the first six months of 2014 decreased 0.3% from prior year.  Noninterest expense for the year was positively impacted by the decrease in net other real estate owned expense as well as adjustments totaling $0.8 million to reduce the accrual for the Federal Reserve determination which was previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

v
Our loan portfolio increased $47.8 million from June 30, 2013 and $47.1 million during the quarter.

v
Our investment portfolio decreased $39.8 million from June 30, 2013 and $2.6 million during the quarter.

v
Deposits, including repurchase agreements, declined $21.7 million from June 30, 2013 and $36.7 million during the quarter.  During the second quarter 2014, substantially all decline was in interest bearing deposits.  Year over year interest bearing deposits, including repurchase agreements, declined $48.9 million while noninterest bearing deposits increased $27.1 million.

v
Our tangible common equity/tangible assets ratio increased to 10.26%.

Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income for the quarter decreased $0.5 million, or 1.5%, from prior year second quarter but increased $0.1 million, or 0.2% from prior quarter as our net interest margin decreased 7 basis points and 5 basis points, respectively, for those time periods.  The current low rate environment continues to have a negative impact on our net interest margin.  Average earning assets increased 0.6% from second quarter 2013 and 0.7% from prior quarter while our yield on average earning assets decreased 14 basis points and 6 basis points, respectively.  Loans represented 76.3% of our average earning assets for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to 75.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and 76.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  The cost of interest bearing funds decreased 6 basis points from prior year second quarter but remained flat to prior quarter.  Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased $1.0 million, or 1.4%, from prior year.

Noninterest Income
 
Noninterest income decreased $2.3 million, or 17.3%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 but increased $0.9 million, or 9.0%, from prior quarter.  The decrease from prior year second quarter included decreases in gains on sales of loans, deposit service charges, loan related fees, and bank owned life insurance income.  The decrease in gains on sales of loans from prior year was reflective of the decline in secondary market residential real estate mortgage activity, and the decrease in deposit service charges from prior year was a result of the change in our processing of overdrafts.  However, gains on sales of loans increased $0.1 million from the first quarter 2014, and deposit service charges increased $0.6 million from prior quarter with increases in overdraft revenue and Visa debit fee income.  Loan related fees were impacted by the fluctuation in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights, and the decrease in other noninterest income was due to the prior year death benefits received in bank owned life insurance of $0.9 million.
 
Noninterest income for the first six months of 2014 decreased $4.2 million, or 16.5%, from prior year.  Gains on sales of loans were $1.7 million below prior year, deposit service charges were $0.5 million below prior year, and loan related fees were $1.0 million below prior year due to a $0.8 million change in fair value adjustments in our mortgage servicing portfolio.

Noninterest Expense
 
Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased $0.7 million, or 2.8%, from prior year second quarter and $1.6 million, or 6.0%, from prior quarter.  The quarterly improvement is due to decreases in net other real estate owned expense and operating losses.  Noninterest expense for the first six months of 2014 decreased $0.2 million, or 0.3%, from prior year.  Noninterest expense for the year was positively impacted by a $0.8 million decrease in net other real estate owned expense as well as adjustments totaling $0.8 million to the accrual for the Federal Reserve determination, partially offset by increased personnel expense of $0.5 million, an increase in operating losses of $0.4 million, and increased data processing expense of $0.3 million.

Balance Sheet Review
 
CTBI’s total assets at $3.7 billion increased $14.4 million, or 0.4%, from June 30, 2013 but decreased $16.0 million, or an annualized 1.7%, during the quarter.  Loans outstanding at June 30, 2014 were $2.6 billion, increasing $47.8 million, or 1.8%, from June 30, 2013 and $47.1 million, or an annualized 7.3%, during the quarter.  We experienced growth during the quarter of $36.8 million in the commercial loan portfolio, $6.9 million in the residential loan portfolio, and $3.4 million in the consumer loan portfolio.  CTBI’s investment portfolio decreased $39.8 million, or 5.8%, from June 30, 2013 and $2.6 million, or an annualized 1.6%, during the quarter.  Deposits in other banks decreased $62.9 million during the quarter to fund loan growth.  Deposits, including repurchase agreements, at $3.1 billion decreased $21.7 million, or 0.7%, from June 30, 2013 and $36.7 million, or an annualized 4.7%, from prior quarter.
 
Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2014 was $433.9 million compared to $400.3 million at June 30, 2013 and $422.0 million at March 31, 2014.  CTBI’s annualized dividend yield to shareholders as of June 30, 2014 was 3.39%.
 
Asset Quality
 
CTBI’s total nonperforming loans were $44.5 million at June 30, 2014, a 7.1% increase from the $41.6 million at June 30, 2013 and a 5.0% increase from the $42.4 million at March 31, 2014.  Loans 90+ days past due increased $3.3 million for the quarter, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in nonaccrual loans.  The increase in loans 90+ days past due was primarily the result of one credit relationship totaling $2.6 million.  Loans in the 90+ days past due category are reviewed by management and are considered to be well secured and in the process of collection; therefore, these loans require no specific reserves to the allowance for loan and lease losses.  Loans 30-89 days past due at $21.5 million was an increase of $5.0 million from June 30, 2013 but a decrease of $2.1 million from March 31, 2014.  Our loan portfolio management processes focus on the immediate identification, management, and resolution of problem loans to maximize recovery and minimize loss.  Impaired loans, loans not expected to meet contractual principal and interest payments other than insignificant delays, at June 30, 2014 totaled $66.2 million, compared to $63.4 million at June 30, 2013 and $65.3 million at March 31, 2014.
 
We continue to experience improvement in other real estate owned.  Our level of foreclosed properties at $33.1 million at June 30, 2014 was a decrease from $43.1 million at June 30, 2013 and $36.3 million at March 31, 2014.  Sales of foreclosed properties for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 totaled $5.1 million while new foreclosed properties totaled $2.2 million.  At June 30, 2014, the book value of properties under contracts to sell was $2.6 million; however, the closings had not occurred at quarter-end.
 
Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 were $0.7 million, or 0.11% of average loans annualized, compared to $3.5 million, or 0.54%, experienced for the second quarter 2013 and $1.7 million, or 0.27%, for the first quarter 2014.  Of the total net charge-offs for the quarter, $0.1 million were in commercial loans, $0.2 million were in indirect auto loans, and $0.2 million were in residential real estate mortgage loans.  Year-to-date net charge-offs declined from 0.38% of average loans to 0.19%.  Allocations to loan loss reserves were $0.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  Loan loss provision for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased $3.1 million.  Our reserve coverage (allowance for loan and lease loss reserve to nonperforming loans) at June 30, 2014 was 75.5% compared to 80.8% at June 30, 2013 and 79.2% at March 31, 2014.  Our loan loss reserve as a percentage of total loans outstanding decreased to 1.28% from the 1.30% at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2014.  The decline in our loan loss provision was primarily due to the trend of decreasing net losses to average loans and a 2 basis point reduction in our allowance for loan and lease losses.  The reduction in our allowance for loan and lease losses impacted our earnings per basic share by $0.02.
