FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

SALISBURY BANCORP, INC. REPORTS RESULTS FOR SECOND QUARTER 2014; DECLARES 28 CENT DIVIDEND

 

Lakeville, Conn., July 25, 2014 /GlobeNewswire …..Salisbury Bancorp, Inc. (“Salisbury”) NASDAQ Capital Market: “SAL”, the holding company for Salisbury Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”), announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

During the second quarter of 2014, Salisbury made significant progress in implementing strategic initiatives to enhance its market presence in each of the three states in which it operates:

·In May 2014, the Bank opened a new branch in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.
·In June 2014, the Bank closed on the previously announced acquisition of a branch and the related deposits of another bank located in Sharon, Connecticut. Operations of our existing Sharon, Connecticut branch were consolidated into this new location.
·During the second quarter of 2014, the Bank filed applications with state and federal bank regulators in connection with its previously announced plans to acquire Riverside Bank of Poughkeepsie, New York. Such acquisition is expected to be completed by year-end 2014, following receipt of shareholder and regulatory approvals.

Selected second quarter 2014 highlights

Net income available to common shareholders was $926,000, or $0.54 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 (second quarter 2014), versus $505,000, or $0.29 per common share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 (first quarter 2014), and $1,103,000, or $0.65 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 (second quarter 2013).

·Earnings per common share of $0.54 increased $0.25, or 86.2%, as compared to $0.29 for the first quarter 2014, and decreased $0.11, or 16.9%, as compared to second quarter 2013.
·Earnings per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, excluding non-recurring expenses related to strategic initiatives of $83,000, (after tax) or $0.05 per share, would have been $0.59 per share for the quarter.
·Excluding such non-recurring second quarter expenses of $83,000 and similar first quarter non-recurring expenses of $287,000 (after taxes) substantially related to professional fees which were incurred in conjunction with strategic initiatives during the first and second quarter 2014 respectively (non-GAAP):
Second quarter earnings per common share would have been $0.59, representing an increase of $0.13 versus first quarter 2014, and a decrease of $0.06, versus second quarter 2013.
Second quarter 2014 net income available to common shareholders would have increased $217,000, or 27%, versus an adjusted first quarter 2014 and would have decreased $94,000, or 9%, versus second quarter 2013
Second quarter 2014 non-interest expense would have increased $168,000, or 3%, versus an adjusted first quarter 2014 and would have increased $368,000, or 8%, versus second quarter 2013.

·Net loans receivable increased $10.1 million, or 2%, during the second calendar quarter of 2014 to $456.6 million, which reflected an increase of $39.9 million, or 10%, from the end of the second quarter of 2013.
·Provision for loan losses for the second quarter was $314,000 versus $337,000 for the first quarter 2014 and $240,000 for second quarter 2013. Net loan charge-offs were $106,000, versus $127,000 for first quarter 2014 and $294,000 for second quarter 2013.
·Tax equivalent net interest and dividend income increased $123,000, or 2.4%, versus first quarter 2014, and increased $285,000, or 5.8%, versus second quarter 2013.

Richard J. Cantele, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to have completed both our Sharon, Connecticut branch acquisition and the opening of our Great Barrington, Massachusetts branch during the second quarter. These initiatives are consistent with our previously announced strategic objectives and reflect our continued focus on the creation of long term value for our shareholders. We are also working to consummate our previously announced proposed acquisition of Riverside Bank, based in Poughkeepsie, New York. We expect to complete this transaction prior to year end following receipt of regulatory and shareholder approvals.”

Net Interest Income

Tax equivalent net interest and dividend income for second quarter 2014 increased $123,000, or 2.4%, versus first quarter 2014, and increased $285,000, or 5.8%, versus second quarter 2013. Average total interest bearing deposits increased $3.6 million as compared with first quarter 2014 and decreased $1.9 million as compared with second quarter 2013. Average earning assets increased $9.1 million as compared with first quarter 2014 and decreased $1.2 million as compared with second quarter 2013. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased from 3.72% at first quarter 2014 to 3.74% and increased 20 basis points versus second quarter 2013 from 3.54%.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income increased $244,000, or 17.0%, versus first quarter 2014 and increased $32,000, or 2.0%, versus second quarter 2013. Trust and Wealth Advisory revenues increased $160,000 versus first quarter 2014 and increased $115,000 versus second quarter 2013. The quarter-over-quarter increase is due to tax preparation fees collected annually in the second quarter and increased estate fees. The year-over-year revenue increase results from growth in managed assets and higher fees collected in second quarter 2014. Service charges and fees increased $84,000 versus first quarter 2014 and $51,000 versus second quarter 2013 due to higher volume of interchange fees and a change in checking service charge fees. Income from sales and servicing of mortgage loans in the second quarter increased by $4,000 as compared to the first quarter 2014 and decreased $118,000 as compared to the second quarter 2013 due to fluctuations in the volume of fixed rate residential mortgage loan sales and mortgage servicing valuations. Mortgage loan sales totaled $1.6 million for second quarter 2014, $0.5 million for first quarter 2014 and $5.1 million for second quarter 2013. Second quarter 2014, first quarter 2014 and second quarter 2013 included amortization on mortgage servicing rights of $86,000, $79,000 and $93,000, respectively. Other income includes income from bank owned life insurance and rental income.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for second quarter 2014 decreased $42,000 versus first quarter 2014 and increased $458,000 versus second quarter 2013. Compensation and employee benefits increased $105,000 versus first quarter 2014, and increased $92,000 versus second quarter 2013. The current quarter includes annual incentive payments and one-time expenses related to staffing changes. Premises and equipment increased $28,000 versus first quarter 2014 and increased $118,000 versus second quarter 2013. The year-over-year increase is mainly due to the opening of the Great Barrington, Massachusetts branch, the acquisition and consolidation of the Sharon branch and building repairs. Data processing increased $36,000 versus first quarter 2014 and $68,000 versus second quarter 2013 mainly due to the Sharon, Connecticut branch acquisition. Professional fees decreased $194,000 versus first quarter 2014, and increased $116,000 versus second quarter 2013. First and second quarter 2014 included legal and consulting expenses related to strategic initiatives. Collections and OREO expense decreased $50,000 versus first quarter 2014, and increased $10,000 versus second quarter 2013 due primarily to decreased litigation and OREO expense. Salisbury had $377,000 in foreclosed property at June 30, 2014. FDIC insurance increased $26,000 versus first quarter 2014 and increased $10,000 versus second quarter 2013. Remaining operating expenses increased $7,000 versus first quarter 2014 and increased $44,000 versus second quarter 2013 due primarily to increases in other administrative and operational expenses.

The effective income tax rates for second quarter 2014, first quarter 2014 and second quarter 2013 were 19.9%, 28.0% and 20.2%, respectively.

Loans

Net loans receivable increased $10.1 million during second quarter 2014 to $456.6 million at June 30, 2014, versus $446.5 million at March 31, 2014, and increased $39.9 million versus $416.7 million at June 30, 2013.

Asset Quality

Non-performing assets increased $0.2 million during second quarter 2014 to $8.8 million, or 1.4% of assets, at June 30, 2014, versus $8.5 million, or 1.4% of assets, at March 31, 2014, and decreased $0.9 million versus $9.6 million, or 1.6% of assets, at June 30, 2013.

The $0.2 million increase in non-performing assets in second quarter 2014 resulted primarily from loans aggregating $0.8 million placed on non-accrual status and $0.1 million in tax advances offset in part by $0.6 million in loan repayments and payoffs, and $0.1 million in loan charge-offs.

Total impaired and potential problem loans increased $0.4 million during second quarter 2014 to $25.0 million, or 5.4% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2014, versus $24.6 million, or 5.5% of gross loans receivable, at March 31, 2014, and decreased $1.2 million versus $26.2 million, or 6.2% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2013.

Accruing loans past due 30-to-89 days decreased $1.7 million during second quarter 2014 to $2.3 million, or 0.50% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2014, and compares favorably to the prior quarter total of $4.0 million, or 0.89% of gross loans receivable, at March 31, 2014. Accruing loans past due 30-to-89 days decreased $2.0 million as compared to June 30, 2013.

Provision for loan losses was $314,000 versus $337,000 first quarter 2014 and $240,000 for second quarter 2013. Net loan charge-offs were $106,000, $127,000 and $294,000, for the respective quarters. Reserve coverage, as measured by the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans, increased slightly to 1.11% at June 30, 2014 versus 1.09% at March 31, 2014 and 1.10% at June 30, 2013.

Salisbury endeavors to work constructively to resolve its non-performing loan issues with customers. Substantially all non-performing loans are collateralized with real estate and the repayment of such loans is largely dependent on the return of such loans to performing status or the liquidation of the underlying real estate collateral.

Capital

Both Salisbury and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios remain in compliance with regulatory “well capitalized” requirements. At June 30, 2014 Salisbury’s Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.50% and 16.11%, respectively, and the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 8.74% and 13.53%, respectively, versus regulatory “well capitalized” minimums of 5.00% and 10.00%, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, Salisbury’s assets totaled $621 million. Book value and tangible book value per common share were $34.44 and $28.15, respectively. Tangible book value excludes goodwill and core deposit intangibles.

In August 2011, Salisbury received $16 million of capital from the U.S. Treasury’s Small Business Lending Fund (the “SBLF”) program and repaid the $8.8 million of capital received in 2009 from the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program. The SBLF program was established to encourage lending to small businesses by providing Tier 1 capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion. To date Salisbury has used this capital to increase its portfolio of qualified small business loans by $42.0 million and to augment its regulatory capital ratios.
