NEWS RELEASE 

 

MVB Financial Third Quarter Results Show Strong Deposits and Loan Growth

 

FAIRMONT, W.Va., NOVEMBER 14, 2014 –  MVB Financial Corp., (OTC Markets Group OTCQB: MVBF) today announced quarterly results for the period ending September 30, 2014.  MVB Financial and its subsidiaries – MVB Bank, MVB Mortgage, and MVB Insurance (collectively "MVB") –  reported total net income of $537,000. 

Results for the third quarter 2014 include the impact of interest expense on subordinated debt as part of the capital raise which was concluded at the end of June. The interest expense was $524,000 for the quarter on a pretax basis. Net Income was lower by 44.6 percent, or $432,000, compared to the second quarter of 2014, reflecting continued softness in the mortgage operation during the quarter, consistent with industry conditions.

“Our third quarter results demonstrate continued balance sheet and asset growth as well as growth in our fee income producing insurance business,” said Larry F. Mazza, CEO of MVB Financial Corp.  “We are especially pleased with our strong gains in loans and core deposits resulting in MVB’s total assets reaching a new high of $1.1 billion.”

 

The following outlines highlights of the company’s linked quarter results for third quarter 2014:

·

Net loans increased 3.9 percent, or $28.6 million leading to an increase in total assets of 2.3 percent or $24.2 million.

·

Deposits increased 13.3 percent, or $99.3 million between the second and third quarters of 2014. 

·

The fee-based revenues from MVB Insurance grew 13 percent or $97,000 compared to second quarter 2014.

·

Noninterest income decreased by 6.1 percent or $448,000, reflecting a decline in the residential mortgage business.  

·

Net interest income declined 2.4 percent or $164,000 less than the prior quarter, reflecting the strong growth in core deposits during the quarter.  

 

Comparing results to the same quarter in the prior year 2013: 

·

Net loans increased 46.2 percent, reaching $757 million.

·

Total assets increased $234 million or 27.4 percent to reach $1.1 billion.

·

Total deposits grew $226 million to $846 million or a 36.5 percent increase.

·

Net interest income grew 31.2 percent, or $1.6 million to $6.7 million even though being negatively impacted by $524,000 due to interest expense paid on subordinated debt that did not exist during third quarter 2013.

·

Noninterest income was down 9.3 percent or $708,000.  Third quarter 2013 results included a onetime gain of $626,000 on the partial sale of a subsidiary.

·

Income before taxes was lower by $210,000 or 24.7 percent, compared to third quarter of 2013.  However, excluding the increase in interest expense from MVB’s recent successful capital raise, income before taxes would have reflected an increase of 36.1 percent, or $314,000,  compared to the same quarter a year ago.


 

 

Our strong year-over-year growth in core operating earnings reflects a continuation of the execution of our strategic plan through devoting resources to opportunities that leverage MVB’s proven expertise in lending and growing fee-based businesses,” Mazza said.  “We intend to continue to build upon our successful organic growth and deploy existing capital.
