MARIETTA, Ohio, July 29 OH-PeoplesBancorp-ern
MARIETTA, Ohio, July 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Peoples Bancorp Inc. ("Peoples") (Nasdaq: PEBO) today announced second quarter 2008 net income of $2.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to $5.3 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007. On a year-to-date basis, net income totaled $7.6 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.73, versus $11.0 million and $1.04, respectively, for the same period in 2007.
Peoples' second quarter 2008 earnings included $4.5 million of additional provision for loan losses ($2.9 million or $0.28 per diluted share after-tax) related to a single $12.6 million commercial real estate loan identified as impaired in connection with management's quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the second quarter. Management determined that the value of the collateral, which is located in west central Florida, had decreased substantially, causing the loan to be under-collateralized. Accordingly, this loan was placed on non-accrual status and charged down to the estimated realizable fair value of the collateral of $6.5 million, less estimated costs to sell of $0.3 million, at June 30, 2008.
"Although out-of-market loans are not a big part of our portfolio, our second quarter results, like those of many other financial companies, were impacted by sluggish economic conditions and the deteriorating housing market, specifically in Florida," said Mark F. Bradley, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our remaining exposure to Florida real estate is less than $3 million and these unrelated loan relationships are performing in accordance with their original terms. While nonperforming assets and the loan loss provision have increased, our capital levels remain well above the amounts needed to be considered well-capitalized and serve as a source of strength as we work through the isolated issues in the loan portfolio."
Bradley continued, "Despite lower earnings, we still achieved success in key areas, including deposit growth, increased net interest income, net interest margin expansion and lower operating expenses which led to improved operating efficiency. We will continue to work through the recent loan challenges while focusing on strategies for long-term revenue growth, with an eye on efficiency in these challenging economic times."
During the second quarter of 2008, Peoples sold preferred stocks issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") with a recorded value of $2.7 million, at a net pre-tax loss of $191,000, which was partially offset by a $138,000 pre-tax gain from the sale of mortgage-backed securities with a recorded value of $18.7 million. These securities were sold as part of the ongoing management of Peoples' credit and interest rate risk exposures in its investment portfolio. At June 30, 2008, Peoples held in its investment portfolio FNMA preferred stocks with a market value of $1.9 million, resulting in a $260,000 other-than-temporary impairment charge in the second quarter of 2008. In July, Peoples sold these remaining preferred stocks, which completely eliminated all holding of preferred stocks issued by FNMA and FHLMC. As a result of the July sales, Peoples will recognize a pre-tax loss of $594,000 ($386,000 after-tax) in the third quarter of 2008.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, net interest income was $14.9 million, up 12% over the prior year second quarter, with the net interest margin expanding 30 basis points to 3.61%. On a linked quarter basis, net interest income increased 4% and net interest margin expanded 10 basis points. Through six months of 2008, net interest income has grown 9% compared to the same period last year and net interest margin was 3.56% versus 3.32%. These improvements were largely attributable to the reduction in short-term market rates and widening of credit spreads, as well as Peoples' growth of lower cost retail deposits. As a result, Peoples' second quarter cost of funds dropped 38 basis points to 3.13%, from 3.52% for the linked quarter and fell 88 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2007, while asset yields declined 25 and 50 basis points over the same periods, respectively. On a year-to-date basis, the average cost of funds decreased 69 basis points and the average yield on assets was down 39 basis points.
Second quarter 2008 net interest income and margin included $226,000 additional income, or five basis points, from the net impact of loan prepayment fees and reduction in interest income for non-accrual loans. In comparison, second quarter 2007 net interest income and margin were reduced by $309,000 or seven basis points due to loan and investment interest reductions. The net impact in first quarter 2008 was additional income of $126,000, or three additional basis points of net interest margin.
"Second quarter net interest income and margin exceeded expectations, as asset yields dropped less than anticipated due to wider credit spreads," said Edward G. Sloane, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. "While the lower cost of funds negated the drop in asset yields thus far in 2008, we expect net interest margin to be pressured in the near term by assets repricing downward and limited additional opportunities to lower funding costs. Given the uncertainty regarding the timing and magnitude of future interest rate changes, we continue to focus on positioning our balance sheet to optimize Peoples' net interest income stream, while also minimizing the impact of future rate changes on our earnings."
Non-interest income was at a consistent level compared to the prior year, totaling $7.9 million and $16.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, as higher trust and investment income and electronic banking revenues were offset by lower insurance commissions and deposit account service charges. On a linked-quarter basis, non-interest income was down 4% in the second quarter of 2008, due to the recognition of annual performance-based insurance commissions in the first quarter. Excluding the impact of this seasonal fluctuation, non-interest income grew 6% in comparison to the first quarter of 2008.
Peoples' trust and investment revenues experienced 9% growth year-over-year for both the second quarter and on a year-to-date basis, attributable to increased assets under management from new business, which more than offset the decline in asset values caused by the recent downturn in the financial markets. At June 30, 2008, total managed assets were $987.6 million, up 1% compared to a year ago. Increases in debit card activity have produced double-digit growth in electronic banking revenues, with second quarter 2008 revenues up 13% versus a year ago and 10% from the first quarter of 2008. Insurance sales commissions (excluding performance-based commissions) were up 5% from the linked quarter, despite a softer insurance market that is producing tighter pricing margins within the insurance industry.
Total non-interest expense was $13.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, down 1% from the same period a year ago, due mostly to a modest decrease in professional fees. Second quarter 2008 salary and benefit costs, Peoples' largest non-interest expense, were comparable to last year's amount, as higher sales-based compensation and increased base salaries from annual merit adjustments were offset by lower incentive expense tied to corporate results. Compared to the first quarter of 2008, total non-interest expense decreased 5% in the second quarter, due to lower incentive and stock-based compensation expenses and reduced professional fees. Through six months of 2008, non-interest expense totaled $26.8 million versus $26.5 million for the first half of 2007, with the increase largely the result of higher sales-based compensation expense and employee medical benefit costs.
"Operating expenses are in line with expectations, while total non-interest income levels were relatively flat," said Sloane. "We improved our efficiency ratio in the first half of 2008 by expanding net interest margin and controlling operating costs."
At June 30, 2008, portfolio loan balances were down $10.9 million for the quarter and $16.1 million since year-end 2007, totaling $1.10 billion. These declines were due to commercial loan payoffs outpacing new production, coupled with the charge-down of the previously-mentioned impaired commercial loan. Peoples' serviced real estate loan portfolio continues to increase steadily, reaching $182.3 million at June 30, 2008, versus $176.7 million at December 31, 2007.
In the second quarter of 2008, the provision for loan losses was $6.8 million compared to $1.4 million last quarter and $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2007. On a year-to-date basis, Peoples' provision for loan losses totaled $8.2 million versus $1.5 million a year ago. The provision for loan losses continues to be based on management's quarterly evaluation of the loan portfolio and is directionally consistent with changes in Peoples' overall loan quality.
Non-performing loans totaled $21.2 million, or 1.92% of total loans, up from $17.5 million, or 1.57%, at March 31, 2008, and $9.4 million, or 0.83% at December 31, 2007. The increased amount of non-performing loans during the first half of 2008 was due to the previously-mentioned impaired loan being placed on non-accrual status during the second quarter and a $7.0 million, unrelated commercial loan being placed on non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2008. No specific reserves were made for these loans at June 30, 2008, since they have been charged down to the estimated realizable fair value of the underlying collateral. As a result, the allowance for loan losses was $15.2 million, or 71.8% of non-performing loans, versus $16.0 million, or 91.2%, at March 31, 2008, and $15.7 million, or 168.0%, at year-end 2007. Management believes the allowance for loan losses was adequate at June 30, 2008, based on all information currently available.
Second quarter of 2008 net loan charge-offs were $7.5 million compared to $1.2 million last quarter and $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2007, with the increase due to the $6.4 million charge-down on the impaired commercial loan. Through six months of 2008, net loan charge-offs totaled $8.7 million versus $1.3 million a year ago. A portion of the change was attributable to a recovery that occurred during the first quarter of 2007 on a group of commercial loans charged-off in 2002, which reduced first quarter 2007 net charge-offs by $609,000.
"We believe the nature of the increase in non-performing loans in the current credit environment is manageable because of our limited out-of-market lending activities and sound underwriting practices," said Sloane. "The two large commercial loans placed on non-accrual status in 2008 were appropriately considered in establishing the level of allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2008 and in prior periods. We will continue to monitor and evaluate these two relationships closely through our review process."
Peoples' total out-of-market loans comprised $108.2 million at June 30, 2008, or approximately 10% of total outstanding loan balances, with $68.8 million of these loans located in Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. Of the remaining $39.4 million of loans, the largest concentrations are in Arizona and Florida, with outstanding balances of $10.1 million and $8.5 million, respectively at June 30, 2008. In all other states, the aggregate outstanding balance in the state was less than $5 million at June 30, 2008. Except for the previously-mentioned impaired loan, these loans are performing in accordance with their original terms.
Retail deposit balances, which exclude brokered deposits, grew $32.0 million during the second quarter of 2008, attributable to higher money market and non-interest-bearing balances. For the quarter, money market balances grew $15.8 million, due to Peoples offering more competitive rates. Retail certificates of deposit and savings balances increased $8.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, while interest-bearing demand deposits fell $9.6 million, due in part to seasonal changes in governmental deposit balances. Non-interest-bearing deposits grew $15.8 million during the second quarter of 2008, due almost entirely to higher commercial balances at June 30, 2008. Since year-end 2007, total retail balances have increased $114.5 million, or 10%, due mostly to higher interest-bearing retail balances from Peoples attracting approximately $60 million of funds from customers outside its primary market area instead of using higher-costing brokered deposits. The retail deposit growth during 2008 has allowed Peoples to reduce higher rate brokered certificates of deposit balances by $19.8 million and contributed to the $71.2 million, or 15%, overall reduction in borrowed funds since year-end 2007.
In the second quarter of 2008, Peoples increased its dividend 4.5% to $0.23 per share, from the $0.22 per share declared for both the first quarter of 2008 and second quarter of 2007. Through six months of 2008, Peoples' dividend payout ratio was 61.5% of net income versus 42.3% for the same period last year.
