MBT Financial Corp. Announces

Third Quarter 2016 Profit and Dividend

 

MONROE, Mich., October 27, 2016 – MBT Financial Corp., (Nasdaq: MBTF), the parent company of Monroe Bank & Trust, reported a preliminary net profit of $3,687,000 ($0.16 per share, basic and diluted), in the third quarter of 2016, compared to a profit of $3,006,000 ($0.13 per share, basic and diluted), in the third quarter of 2015. Year to date profit is $10,923,000 ($0.48 per share, basic and diluted) compared to $8,068,000 ($0.35 per share, basic and diluted) in the first three quarters of 2015.

 

The Company also announced that it will pay a dividend of $0.04 per share on November 17, 2016 to shareholders of record as of November 10, 2016. The Company did not pay a dividend in the same period in 2015.

 

Earnings for the Company improved this quarter due to increases in net interest income and non-interest income and decreases in the provision for loan losses and non-interest expenses compared to the third quarter of 2015. The net interest margin was unchanged at 3.11% in the third quarter of 2016 compared to the third quarter of 2015, however the average amount of interest earning assets increased $43.7 million, and as a result, the net interest income increased $291,000, or 3.2% in the third quarter of 2016 compared to the third quarter of 2015.

 

The provision for loan losses decreased $500,000 compared to the third quarter of 2015 from a negative expense of $200,000 in the third quarter of 2015 to a negative expense of $700,000 recorded this quarter. Classified assets decreased 16.6% during the third quarter and the analysis of the risk in the loan portfolio indicated a need to reduce the Allowance for Loan Losses again this quarter. Total Loans increased $17.2 million during the third quarter, but the continued improvement in asset quality and historical loss ratios enabled the Company to reduce the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses from 1.55% of loans at the end of the second quarter to 1.43% as of the end of the third quarter of 2016.

 

Non-interest income, excluding Other Real Estate and securities gains and losses was unchanged at $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2016 and 2015. Securities gains increased from $16,000 in the third quarter of 2015 to $87,000 in the third quarter of 2016 and total non-interest income increased $61,000 or 1.5% compared to last year.

 

Total non-interest expenses decreased $192,000, or 2.1% in the third quarter of 2016 compared to the third quarter of 2015. Salaries and benefits decreased $180,000 or 3.2% as a result of the efficiency initiative that reduced our staffing in the fourth quarter of 2015. The FDIC deposit insurance assessment decreased $33,000 and other insurance decreased $85,000 due to the improved financial condition of the bank.

 

Total assets of the company increased $713,000, or 0.1% compared to December 31, 2015. Capital increased $321,000 during the first nine months of 2016 even though the payment of the special and regular dividends exceeded the net income for the period because the AOCI increased $4.1 million due to the increase in the value of AFS securities. The ratio of equity to assets increased from 10.98% at the end of 2015 to 10.99% at September 30, 2016. The Bank’s Tier 1 Leverage ratio decreased from 10.91% as of December 31, 2015 to 10.52% as of September 30, 2016.

 

H. Douglas Chaffin, President and CEO, commented, “Our results this quarter are a product of our continued focus on growth and cost control, along with improvements in the local economy and our portfolio.  We have been effective at growing the loan book and net interest income, while controlling non-interest expense.  We plan to continue growing loans and fee income, as we also improve our operational efficiency. We will also continue to actively manage our capital, along with looking for the right opportunities to fund growth, throughout our existing branch network and strategic acquisitions.  We remain confident in our ability to maintain our position as the premier independent provider of financial services in the communities we serve, despite challenges in our current environment.”
