FNB Bancorp (NASDAQ: FNBG), parent company of First National Bank of Northern California (the “Bank”), today announced net earnings available to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2018 of $4,188,000 or $0.54 per diluted share, compared to net earnings available to common shareholders of $3,089,000 or $0.41 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2017. First quarter results include the first full quarter of federal income tax rates of 21% following the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“H.R.1”) in December 2017 which reduced the federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning January 1, 2018. First quarter results also reflect the sale of our OREO property located in South San Francisco, CA at a pretax gain of $392,000.

 

On December 11, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (“Merger Agreement”) with TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK) pursuant to which the Company would merge with and into TriCo Bancshares and the Bank would merge with and into Tri Counties Bank, the California state banking subsidiary of TriCo Bancshares. Consummation of the mergers is subject to the receipt of approvals by the shareholders of each of the Company and TriCo Bancshares, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other closing conditions which are customary for such transactions. TriCo Bancshares has filed a Form S-4 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission containing a joint proxy statement/prospectus which the Company and TriCo Bancshares are providing to their shareholders of record on April 9, 2018 for the special meetings of their respective shareholders to be held on May 29, 2018 seeking approvals of the Merger Agreement and the mergers.

 

“During the first quarter of 2018, the Company was able to grow our net loan portfolio by $1.3 million. Growth in our non-interest bearing DDA liabilities totaled $20.2 million. Cash outflows from higher cost deposit liabilities were offset by an increase in our FHLB borrowings outstanding of $25 million. Our personnel worked diligently during the first quarter to maintain our profitability while continuing to provide for our customers’ financial needs, providing them with what they need when they need it”, stated CEO Tom McGraw.

 

“During the first quarter of 2018, we were able to sell our South San Francisco, CA OREO commercial real estate property for a pretax gain of $392,000. The purchase and sale agreement for this property sale requires that the Company continue our efforts to obtain a formally agreed upon toxic soil and water remediation plan with the local water board. We have set aside $725,000 to cover the expected future remediation and monitoring costs based on advice we have received from our soil and water engineering consultant, which could vary in the future”, continued Tom McGraw.
