For the three months ended June 30, 2014:
Net income decreased $617,000 to $353,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared to net income of $970,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Net interest income remained flat at $3.0 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. A decrease of $33,000 in interest income from the prior year period was offset by a $64,000 decrease in interest expense. The decrease in interest income was the result of a decrease in the average interest rate earned on loans from 4.83% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to 4.59% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and a $10.6 million decrease in the average balance of loans, offset by an increase in the average rate earned on investments from 1.18% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to 1.59% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of a decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposits from 0.62% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to 0.53% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Changes in interest rates are reflective of decreases in overall market rates.
The provision for loan losses was $160,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to a recovery of loan losses of $651,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, representing an increase of $811,000. The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily due to a $651,000 recovery in the prior year quarter on a multi-family loan which had previously been charged off and was subsequently paid off during the prior year period. Reflective of continued improvement in our asset quality, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans decreased from 4.95% at March 31, 2014 to 3.97% at June 30, 2014, and nonperforming loans as a percentage of total assets decreased from 2.48% at March 31, 2014 to 1.99% at June 30, 2014.
Other income decreased $359,000, or 32.5%, to $747,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in other income was primarily due to a $137,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans, a $81,000 decrease in gain on sale of investments and a $82,000 decrease in gain on sale of other real estate owned.
Noninterest expense decreased $137,000, or 4.1%, from $3.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to $3.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a $172,000 decrease in compensation and employee benefits resulting from the recognition in the prior year quarter of a $199,000 IRS assessment for prior years’ payroll taxes.
For the year ended June 30, 2014:
Net income decreased $287,000 to $2.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to net income of $2.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2013.
Net interest income decreased $234,000, or 1.9%, to $12.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $12.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. A decrease of $929,000 in interest income was partially offset by a $695,000 decrease in interest expense. The decrease in interest income was the result of a decrease in the average interest rate earned on loans from 4.88% for the year ended June 30, 2013 to 4.73% for the year ended June 30, 2014, an $18.5 million decrease in the average balance of loans and a decrease in the average rate earned on investments from 1.59% for the year ended June 30, 2013 to 1.53% for the year ended June 30, 2014, partially offset by a $28.0 million increase in the average balance of investments. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of a decrease in the average interest rate paid on deposits from 0.73% for the year ended June 30, 2013 to 0.56% for the year ended June 30, 2014. Changes in interest rates are reflective of decreases in overall market rates during the year ended June 30, 2014.
The net recovery of loan losses was $132,000 for the year ended June 30, 2014 compared to a net recovery of loan losses of $66,000 for the year ended June 30, 2013. The recovery of loan losses during the year ended June 30, 2014 was due to a $379,000 commercial loan recovery and a $124,000 recovery from two one- to four-family loans. The recovery of loan losses during the year ended June 30, 2013 was due to a $651,000 recovery on a multi-family loan. Reflective of continued improvement in our asset quality, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans decreased from 4.87% at June 30, 2013 to 3.97% at June 30, 2014, and nonperforming loans as a percentage of total assets decreased from 2.60% at June 30, 2013 to 1.99% at June 30, 2014.
Other income decreased $792,000, or 17.6%, to $3.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2014 from $4.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in other income was primarily due to a $664,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans and a $634,000 decrease in gain on sale of investments, partially offset by a $208,000 increase in other income. The decrease in gain on sale of investments is due to the sale of mortgage-backed securities and other available for sale securities in the prior year with no such sales in the current year. The decrease in gain on sale of loans is the result of a higher level of refinancing activity in the prior year and the Bank’s decision to retain fifteen year fixed-rate loans in its loan portfolio during the current year. The increase in other income is primarily due to an increase in the value of mortgage servicing rights during the current year as a result of a decline in prepayment of mortgages.
Noninterest expense decreased $403,000, or 3.0%, from $13.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2013 to $13.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $206,000 in compensation and employee benefits, $147,000 in deposit insurance premium and $100,000 in premises and occupancy expense, partially offset by an increase of $114,000 in professional fees. The decrease in compensation and employee benefits expense was primarily due to the recognition in the prior year of a $199,000 IRS assessment for prior years’ payroll taxes. The decrease in deposit insurance premium is reflective of an overall decrease in average deposits in the current year compared to the prior year. The decrease in premises and occupancy expense was primarily the result of non-recurring expenses for data processing upgrades in the prior year. The increase in professional fees is primarily the result of utilizing outside resources for internal audit and planning in the current fiscal year.
Total assets were $530.5 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $512.6 million at June 30, 2013. A $16.8 million increase in investment securities and a $8.2 million increase in cash and cash equivalents were partially offset by a $10.2 million decrease in loans. The increase in investment securities and cash and cash equivalents was the result of the payoff of loans with a portion of the proceeds being redeployed into purchases of mortgage-backed securities and other available for sale securities. The decrease in loans was primarily the result of an increase in net payoffs in one- to four-family real estate and commercial real estate loans during the current year.
Total liabilities increased $18.4 million from $439.1 million at June 30, 2013 to $457.5 million at June 30, 2014 due to an increase of the same amount in deposits during the current year, primarily as a result of an increase in municipal deposits.
Total stockholders’ equity was $72.9 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $73.5 million at June 30, 2013. Net income of $2.3 million, a $1.0 million decrease in unrealized loss on investments and $390,000 in amortization of ESOP shares are offset by treasury stock repurchases of $2.2 million, cash dividends of $1.1 million and purchases for stock plans of $1.1 million. At June 30, 2014, the Bank was considered “well-capitalized” under applicable regulatory requirements.
