Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc.
Reports First Quarter 2016 Earnings
YORK, Pa. – Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc. (Codorus Valley, or the Corporation) (NASDAQ: CVLY), parent company of PeoplesBank, a Codorus Valley Company (PeoplesBank), today announced net income available to common shareholders (earnings) of $2.8 million or $0.35 per share basic and diluted, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, as compared to earnings of $2.4 million or $0.39 per share basic and diluted, for the first quarter of 2015. The decrease in earnings per share was primarily a result of the 1,746,850 common shares issued in the $34.5 million public offering completed in December 2015.
Larry J. Miller, Chairman, President and CEO, stated, “Our strong first quarter performance reflects the continued growth and profitability of our core commercial, retail and wealth management businesses. During the first quarter 2016, our loan and deposit portfolios each reflected increases of $27 million, accompanied by increases in the net interest margin, service fees on deposits and wealth management fees. We also continued the expansion of the PeoplesBank franchise by opening a limited service facility on the Masonic Village campus in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, representing our initial entry into this highly-attractive market. The opening of this facility has proven to be very successful based on the significant number of accounts and deposits generated in a short period of time.”
The Corporation’s net interest income for the first quarter of 2016 was $13.0 million, an increase of $1.3 million or 11% when compared to the net interest income of $11.7 million for the first quarter of 2015. The growth was driven by an increased volume of interest earning assets, primarily commercial loans. The Corporation realized a net interest margin of 3.95% for the first quarter of 2016, which was comparable to the net interest margin of 3.93% for the first quarter of 2015. PeoplesBank continues to have success in growing low cost core deposits, while maintaining reasonable loan yields in a highly competitive pricing environment.
The provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2016 was $800,000, a decrease of $200,000 as compared to a provision of $1.0 million for the first quarter of 2015. The decrease was positively impacted by a $313,000 reduction in net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. Due to continued collection and successful workout efforts, the Corporation’s nonperforming assets ratio was 0.56% as of March 31, 2016, reflecting a favorable year-over-year decrease when compared to a nonperforming asset ratio of 0.99% as of March 31, 2015.
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 was $2.4 million. While noninterest income was flat, there was an increase in wealth management income and service charges on deposit accounts, which was offset by a decrease in gains from sales of mortgage loans and securities.
Noninterest expense was $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2016, an increase of $869,000 as compared to noninterest expense of $9.6 million for the first quarter of 2015. Personnel costs, which include compensation and benefit expenses, accounted for $737,000 of the increase, and is due to a combination of normal business growth and 2016 including a full quarter impact of the Corporation’s January 2015 acquisition of Madison Bancorp, Inc. Marketing costs increased $250,000 due to planned initiatives related to the continued expansion of our franchise along with the initial expenses associated with the acquisition of the naming rights to PeoplesBank Park, the facility that houses the York, Pennsylvania based York Revolution independent league baseball team. Noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 2015 included $425,000 of nonrecurring costs associated the acquisition of Madison Bancorp, Inc.
