Metairie, Louisiana – November 6, 2014 – State Investors Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SIBC), the holding company of State-Investors Bank, reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, of $344,000 an increase of $217,000 as compared to net income of $127,000 reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.15 and $0.14, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.05 for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 amounted to $836,000 an increase of $507,000 from $329,000 in net income reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.36 and $0.35, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.13 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
The increase in net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 resulted primarily from a $481,000, or 19.5%, increase in total interest income, partially offset by an increase of $135,000, or 8.4%, in total non-interest expense, an increase of $105,000, or 115.4%, in the provision for income taxes, an increase of $15,000, or 2.3%, in total interest expense, and a decrease of $9,000, or 14.1%, in total non-interest income. Net interest income increased $466,000 or 25.6%, due to the $481,000 increase in total interest income as a result of an overall increase in interest earning assets. The decrease in non-interest income was due to an $11,000 decrease in service charges, fees and other income. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $56,000, or 6.5%, as well as an increase of $42,000, or 210.0%, in taxes and licenses, an increase of $20,000, or 13.9%, in data processing expense, an increase of $20,000, or 133.3%, in bank service charge expense, an increase of $13,000, or 10.5%, in occupancy expense, an increase of $5,000, or 9.8%, in security expense, and an increase of $3,000, or 23.1%, in advertising expense, partially offset by decreases of $12,000, or 5.6% in other non-interest expense, $6,000, or 14.0% in deposit insurance premiums, $4,000 or 4.1%, in professional fees, and $2,000, or 8.0% in office supplies and postage expense.
The increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, was primarily due to an increase of $1.0 million, or 14.0%, in interest income, an increase of $21,000, or 16.0%, in non-interest income, and a decrease of $6,000, or 3.9%, in the provision for loan losses. This was partially offset by an increase of $325,000, or 132.7%, in the provision for income taxes, an increase in other non-interest expense of $217,000, or 4.4%, and an increase in total interest expense of $23,000, or 1.2%. Net interest income increased $1.0 million, or 18.4%, due to the $1.1 million increase in total interest income as a result of an overall increase in interest earning assets. The increase in non-interest income is due to a $40,000 loss realized on other real estate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to a $4,000 loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $130,000, or 5.0%, as well as increases of $37,000, or 102.8%, in bank service fees expense, $31,000, or 36.5%, in deposit insurance premiums, $18,000, or 4.8%, in occupancy expense, $11,000, or 6.0%, in taxes and licenses, $6,000, or 2.0%, in professional fees, $4,000, or 0.9%, in data processing expense, and $3,000, or 0.5%, in other non-interest expense, partially offset by decreases of $16,000, or 31.4%, in advertising expense, $5,000 or 2.9% in security expense, and $2,000, or 2.6%, in office supplies and postage expense.
At September 30, 2014, the Company reported total assets of $268.9 million, an increase of $10.2 million, or 3.9%, compared to total assets of $258.7 million at December 31, 2013. The increase primarily reflects increases in net loans receivable of $13.9 million, or 7.0%, and an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank Stock of $382,000, or 15.4%, partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million, or 41.1%, and in investment securities of $564,000, or 1.5%. The increase in net loans receivable was partially funded by advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas which amounted to $66.5 million at September 30, 2014, compared to $56.0 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of $10.5 million, or 18.7%. Deposits decreased $1.2 million, or 0.7%, at September 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013. At September 30, 2014, the Company reported $974,000 of non-performing assets, or 0.4%, of total assets at such date, compared to $2.7 million of non-performing assets, or 1.03%, of total assets at December 31, 2013.

Total shareholders’ equity decreased $39,000, or 0.1%, to $41.5 million at September 30, 2014, from $41.6 million at December 31, 2013, primarily due to the purchase of 82,215 shares under the Company’s stock repurchase program, partially offset by net income of $836,000, and an increase in unrealized gain on securities available for sale of $77,000, net of the deferred tax effect, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
