Net Interest Income
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, total interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $1.1 million, or 20.7 percent, to $6.3 million, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Interest income rose in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2015 primarily due to a $109.1 million increase in the average balance of our loans and a $13.0 million increase in the average balance of our investment securities. Total interest expense increased by $380,000, or 28.6 percent, to $1.7 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2015.
Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis was $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, increasing $695,000, or 18.0 percent, from $3.9 million for the comparable three month period in fiscal 2015. The change for the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily was the result of an increase in the average balance of interest earning assets, which increased $90.8 million. The net interest spread on an annualized tax-equivalent basis was at 2.55 percent and 2.43 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company’s net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased to 2.65 percent as compared to 2.58 percent for the same three month period in fiscal 2015.

“Our net interest margins remained stable despite the large liquidity pool carried during the period. We expect to continue to see growth in funding offset with the deployment of that cash into our loan portfolio in the coming quarters. During the second quarter of fiscal 2016 we added $74.7 million in gross loans to the balance sheet, maintaining pace with funding, “commented Mr. Weagley.
The 28.6 percent increase in interest expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the second fiscal quarter in 2015, primarily reflects higher volumes of borrowings. The increased borrowings for the period are tied primarily to an interest rate swap that was executed to improve interest rate risk. The average cost of funds was 1.09 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to 1.04 percent for the same three month period in fiscal 2015 and, on a linked sequential quarter basis, increased four basis points compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2016.
For the six months ended March 31, 2016, total interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $2.0 million, or 20.0 percent, to $12.0 million, compared to $10.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 2015. Total interest expense increased by $604,000, or 23.4 percent, to $3.2 million, for the six months ended March 31, 2016, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2015. Interest income rose for the six months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2015 primarily due to a $69.8 million increase in average loan balances. Compared to the same period in fiscal 2015, for the six months ended March 31, 2016, average interest earning assets increased $86.0 million, and the net interest spread and net interest margin increased on an annualized tax-equivalent basis by 14 basis points and nine basis points, respectively.

Other Income
Other income decreased $244,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the same period in fiscal 2015. The decrease during the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was primarily due to a decrease of $205,000 in net gains on sales of investment securities compared to the same period in fiscal 2015. Excluding net securities gains and losses, a non-GAAP measure, the Company recorded other income of $440,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $479,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $39,000, or 8.1 percent. The decrease in other income in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2015 (excluding securities gains) resulted primarily from a decrease in service charges of $37,000, a decrease in rental income of $14,000 and a decrease in earnings on bank-owned insurance of $4,000, partially offset by an increase of $16,000 in net gain on sale of loans.
For the six months ended March 31, 2016, total other income decreased $197,000 compared to the same period in fiscal 2015, primarily as a result of a $100,000 decrease in net gains on sales of investment securities, a $96,000 decrease in service charges and a $28,000 decrease in rental income, partially offset by an increase of $31,000 in net gain on sale of loans. Excluding net securities gains and losses, a non-GAAP measure, the Company recorded other income of $867,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $964,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 2015, a decrease of $97,000, or 10.1 percent.

Loans
Total net loans were $515.1 million at March 31, 2016 compared to $391.3 million at September 30, 2015, for a net increase of $123.8 million. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $4.9 million and $4.7 million at March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, respectively. Average loans during the second quarter of fiscal 2016 totaled $494.0 million as compared to $384.9 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2015, representing a 28.3 percent increase.

At the end of second quarter of fiscal 2016, the loan portfolio remained weighted toward the core residential portfolio, with single-family residential real estate loans accounting for 41.3 percent of the loan portfolio, construction and development loans for 3.6 percent, commercial loans accounting for 44.0 percent, and consumer loans representing 11.1 percent of the loan portfolio at such date. Total gross loans increased $124.6 million, to $518.8 million at March 31, 2016 compared to $394.2 million at September 30, 2015. The $124.6 million increase in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2016 compared to September 30, 2015, primarily reflected an increase of $119.8 million in commercial loans and a $10.7 million increase in construction and development loans. These increases were partially offset by a $751,000 decrease in residential mortgage loans and a $5.2 million reduction in consumer loans at March 31, 2016 as compared to September 30, 2015.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company originated total new loan volume of $74.7 million, which was offset in part by payoffs, prepayments and maturities totaling $20.5 million. The payoffs were primarily contained to the consumer and residential portfolios. “Our current pipeline of loans has remained strong, buttressed by our continued business development activity, and overall growth in the portfolio has gained traction, supported by slowing payoff activity. We anticipate continued growth as we move forward in the 2016 fiscal year,” commented Anthony C. Weagley.

Asset Quality
Non-accrual loans were $853,000 at March 31, 2016, as compared to $1.4 million at September 30, 2015 and $1.8 million at March 31, 2015. Other real estate owned, (“OREO”) was $700,000 at March 31, 2016, as compared with $1.2 million at September 30, 2015 and $1.4 million at March 31, 2015, respectively. Total performing troubled debt restructured loans were $1.6 million at March 31, 2016, $1.1 million at September 30, 2015 and $109,000 at March 31, 2015, respectively. The increase in performing troubled debt restructured loans at March 31, 2016 compared to September 30, 2015 was due to two commercial loans to one borrower, with an outstanding balance of approximately $493,000, being returned to accruing status during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease in OREO at March 31, 2016 compared to September 30, 2015, was attributable to three single residential loans sold during the first six months of fiscal 2016. The $468,000 decrease in OREO at March 31, 2016 compared to September 30, 2015, was due to $493,000 of sale proceeds, at a net gain of $45,000, as well as a $20,000 reduction in the fair value of the remaining property, which are reflected in other REO expense during the first six months of fiscal 2016.
At March 31, 2016, non-performing assets totaled $1.6 million, or 0.20 percent of total assets, as compared with $2.6 million, or 0.39 percent, at September 30, 2015 and $3.3 million, or 0.52 percent, at March 31, 2015. The decrease from March 31, 2015 reflects the Company’s continued diligence to satisfactorily work out certain problem assets. The portfolio of remaining non-accrual loans at March 31, 2016 was comprised of seven residential real estate loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $624,000, six consumer loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $217,000 and one construction and development loan with an outstanding balance of $12,000.
The following table presents the components of non-performing assets and other asset quality data for the periods indicated.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reported amounts are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information provided in this press release is utilized by market analysts and others to evaluate a company's financial condition and, therefore, that such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures presented by other companies.
The Company’s other income is presented in the table below including and excluding net investment securities gains. The Company’s management believes that many investors desire to evaluate other income without regard to such gains.

Net interest margin, which is non-interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets, is presented on a fully tax equivalent (“TE”) basis as we believe this non-GAAP measure is the preferred industry measurement for this item. The TE basis adjusts GAAP interest income and yields for the tax benefit of income on certain tax-exempt investments using the federal statutory rate of 34% for each period presented.
