Codorus Valley Bancorp, Inc.

Reports Second Quarter 2017 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 $3.7 million or $0.43 per share basic and diluted, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, as compared to earnings of $3.0 million or $0.36 per share basic and diluted, for the second quarter of 2016. For the first six months of 2017, earnings were $7.1 million or $0.84 per share basic and $0.83 per share diluted, compared to $5.8 million or $0.69 per share basic and diluted, for the first six months of 2016.

 

“Our associates work diligently every day to meet the needs of our clients and carry out the initiatives established in our strategic plan, and their efforts are reflected in our solid second quarter performance.  Our earnings per diluted share grew 20% for the first six months of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016. This was a result of strong deposit and loan growth which lead to an increase in our net income,” commented Larry J. Miller, Chairman, President and CEO.  “Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on the transformation of our digital offerings as we make banking even more convenient for our clients.  With that, we will be unveiling a new PeoplesBank website later this summer with added features and functionality.  This is just part of our commitment to providing the solutions our clients need and want to manage their finances, both in-person and online.”

 

The Corporation’s net interest income for the second quarter of 2017 was $14.6 million, an increase of $1.4 million or 11 percent when compared to the net interest income of $13.2 million for the second quarter of 2016. The growth was driven by an increased volume of interest earning assets, primarily commercial loans. For the first six months of 2017, net interest income was $28.7 million, reflecting an increase of $2.5 million or 10 percent compared to $26.2 million for the first six months of 2016. The Corporation’s net interest margin was 3.78 percent for the first half of 2017, a decrease from the net interest margin of 3.95 percent for the same period in 2016.

 
 

 

The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2017 was $825,000 compared to $800,000 for the same period in 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the provision for loan losses was $1.5 million compared to $1.6 million for the first six months of 2016. The Corporation’s nonperforming assets ratio was 0.54 percent as of June 30, 2017, a slight increase from 0.46 percent as of June 30, 2016.

 

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2017, excluding gains on sales of investment securities, was $2.8 million, an increase of 14 percent compared to noninterest income of $2.4 million for the second quarter 2016. For the first six months of 2017, noninterest income, excluding gains on sales of investment securities, was $5.5 million an increase of 18 percent compared to $4.6 million for the first six months of 2016. The increase in noninterest income, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was attributed primarily to increases in service charges on deposit accounts, trust and investment services, and gains on sales of loans. Gain on sales of investment securities increased $63,000 during the second quarter of 2017 in comparison to 2016 and declined $131,000 for the first six months of 2017 in comparison to 2016.

 

Noninterest expense was $11.2 million for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of $754 thousand as compared to noninterest expense of $10.4 million for the second quarter of 2016. For the first six months of 2017, noninterest expenses totaled $22.2 million, an increase of 7 percent compared to $20.9 million for the first six months of 2016. Higher personnel expenses, charitable donations and external data processing costs accounted for the majority of the increase. The aforementioned higher costs were partially offset by a decline in foreclosed real estate expenses and marketing costs.
