2nd Quarter Earnings per Share up 7.0%; 35th Consecutive Quarter of Profit Improvement
(firmenpresse) - FORT WORTH, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 07/29/13 -- Trinity Bank N.A. (OTCBB: TYBT) today announced operating results for the second quarter and the six months ending June 30, 2013.
For the second quarter of 2013, Trinity Bank, N.A. reported Net Income after Taxes of $700,000, an increase of 8.7% over second quarter 2012 earnings of $644,000. Earnings per diluted common share for the second quarter 2013 amounted to $0.61, an increase of 7.0% over second quarter 2012 results of $.57 per diluted common share.
For the first six months of 2013, Net Income after Taxes was $1,384,000, an increase of 9.4% over the first half of 2012 results of $1,265,000. Earnings per diluted common share for the first half of 2013 were $1.21, an increase of 8.0% over the first half of 2012 results of $1.12 per diluted common share.
President Jeffrey M. Harp stated, "The 8.7% increase in Net Income from the 2Q 2012 represents the first time we have not produced a double digit increase. The culprit continues to be the manipulated interest rate environment and its effect on our investment portfolio."
"We have taken some gains on the sale of securities in the first half of 2013. We have used these gains to bolster our loan loss reserve, to accrue for some expenses we know we will incur over the last half of the year, and to offset some of the decline in investment income."
"On a more positive note, loans are up 9.7%, and the Net Interest Margin increased from 3.41% in 1Q 2013 to 3.63% in 2Q 2013. This is the first significant margin increase in several years. For 2Q 2013, Return on Assets of 1.56% and Return on Equity of 13.76% continue to compare very favorably with local, state, and national peer groups."
