"The positive growth trend in revenue, loans, deposits and asset quality for the second quarter illustrates the tremendous hard work and dedication of our team, and the loyal support of our communities, customers and shareholders. All aspects of our 2016 strategic initiatives are moving ahead and we expect continued success through the remainder of 2016. While we are pleased with results thus far, we continue to monitor the agricultural risk throughout the San Joaquin Valley due to continued water restrictions," stated James M. Ford, President and CEO of Central Valley Community Bancorp and Central Valley Community Bank.
"With the April 2016 merger announcement with Sierra Vista Bank, the Company is poised to reach new financial heights in our 36-year history. This Greater Sacramento expansion includes a team of professional bankers and three full service branches located in Folsom, Fair Oaks and Cameron Park. Integration work related to the acquisition is progressing well and upon customary closing conditions the transaction and systems conversions are anticipated to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2016," continued Ford.
"This milestone and all others before can be tracked back to our founding in 1979, which was led by Wanda L. Rogers who served as the first Chairman of our Board, and in recent years remained on the Board with emeritus status until her recent passing on May 26, 2016. On behalf of our entire Company, we share a deep appreciation for Wanda''s community bank vision, her leadership, and the incredible life she led," concluded Ford.
Net income for the period increased 70.65% in 2016 compared to 2015, primarily driven by a decrease in provision for credit losses, as well as an increase in net interest income, offset by an increase in non-interest expenses, a decrease in non-interest income, and an increase in provision for income taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a reverse provision for credit losses of $4,850,000, compared to a $500,000 provision during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Net interest income before the provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $21,811,000, compared to $19,785,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $2,026,000 or 10.24%. Net interest income during the first six months of 2016 and 2015 benefited by approximately $491,000 and $225,000, respectively, in nonrecurring income from prepayment penalties and payoff of loans previously on nonaccrual status. Excluding these benefits, net interest income for the first six months ended June 30, 2016 increased by $1,760,000 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company''s shareholders'' equity increased $17,352,000, or 12.45%. The increase in shareholders'' equity was driven by the retention of earnings, net of dividends paid, and an increase in unrealized gains on available-for-sale (AFS) securities recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The increase in the unrealized gains on AFS securities was partially a result of the reclassification in the first quarter of 2016 of the held-to-maturity (HTM) securities to available-for-sale designation, with $2,425,000 of the $8,937,000 AOCI increase related to the HTM securities transfer.
Annualized return on average equity (ROE) for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was 12.92%, compared to 8.29% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Notwithstanding an increase in shareholders'' equity, this increase in ROE was achieved due to an increase in net income. The Company declared and paid $0.12 per share in cash dividends to holders of common stock during the six months of 2016 compared to $0.06 during the six months of 2015. Annualized return on average assets (ROA) was 1.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 0.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company''s total assets increased 1.10%, and total liabilities decreased 0.29%, compared to those at December 31, 2015.
Non-performing assets decreased by $663,000, or 27.48%, to $1,750,000 at June 30, 2016, compared to $2,413,000 at December 31, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a reverse provision for credit losses of $4,850,000, as compared to a $500,000 provision during the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $5,112,000 in net loan recoveries, compared to $94,000 in net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The net (recovery) charge-off ratio, which reflects annualized net (recoveries) charge-offs to average loans, was (1.68)% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 0.03% for the same period in 2015.
At June 30, 2016, the allowance for credit losses stood at $9,872,000, compared to $9,610,000 at December 31, 2015, a net increase of $262,000 reflecting the reverse provision of $4,850,000 and the net recoveries during the period. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.56% at June 30, 2016, and 1.61% at December 31, 2015. Total loans included loans acquired in the acquisition of Visalia Community Bank in 2013 ("VCB loans") that were recorded at fair value in connection with the acquisition. The value of the VCB loans totaled $58,198,000 at June 30, 2016 and $62,395,000 at December 31, 2015. Excluding these VCB loans from the calculation, the allowance for credit losses to total gross loans was 1.72% and 1.79% as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and general reserves associated with non-impaired loans to total non-impaired loans was 1.68% and 1.79%, respectively. The Company believes the allowance for credit losses is adequate to provide for probable incurred credit losses within the loan portfolio at June 30, 2016.
In connection with the partial charge-off of a single commercial and agricultural relationship in the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company is actively working to collect all balances legally owed to the Company. The Company continues to track and identify any expenses, net of recoveries, associated with the collection efforts of this commercial and agricultural relationship. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, collection expenses related to this relationship totaled $114,000 as compared to $212,000 for the same period of 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company received approximately $3,809,000 in loan recoveries towards the charge-off from the continued liquidation of certain assets serving as collateral for various impaired credits. Collection activity on this relationship is now substantially complete. The additional amounts due to the Company from this relationship, are not considered material and therefore the Company will return to its historical practice of detailing recoveries through the table that reconciles the change in non-accrual loans and no longer call out the remaining collection expenses and recoveries.
Total non-performing assets were $1,750,000, or 0.14% of total assets as of June 30, 2016, compared to $2,413,000, or 0.19% of total assets as of December 31, 2015. The following provides a reconciliation of the change in nonaccrual loans for 2016.
The Company''s net interest margin (fully tax equivalent basis) was 4.08% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 4.01% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net interest margin in the period-to-period comparison resulted from an increase in the effective yield on average investment securities, an increase in the yield on the Company''s loan portfolio, and a decrease in the Company''s cost of funds. Net interest income during the first six months of 2016 and 2015 benefited by approximately $491,000 and $225,000, respectively, in nonrecurring income from prepayment penalties and payoff of loans previously on nonaccrual status.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company was required to reclassify investment securities totaling $23.1 million from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale designation as a result of the sale of certain investment securities classified as held-to-maturity. The unrealized gain on those securities approximates $4,120,000 as of June 30, 2016.
The effective yield on average investment securities, including interest earning deposits in other banks and Federal funds sold, increased to 2.85% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 2.72% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Total average loans, which generally yield higher rates than investment securities, increased $27,781,000, from $580,088,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 to $607,869,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Average interest-bearing deposits increased $21,931,000, or 3.27%, and average non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $32,612,000, or 8.78%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Net income for the immediately trailing quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $3,403,000, or $0.31 per diluted common share. The increase in net income during the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 is primarily due to a decrease in provision for credit losses and an increase in net interest income, partially offset by an increase in provision for income taxes and a decrease in non-interest income. The Company recorded a $4,600,000 reverse provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2016 compared to provision for credit losses of $500,000 during the same period of 2015.
Annualized return on average equity (ROE) for the second quarter of 2016 was 16.24%, compared to 9.15% for the same period of 2015.

Annualized return on average assets (ROA) was 1.91% for the second quarter of 2016 compared to 1.02% for the same period in 2015. This increase is due to an increase in net income, notwithstanding an increase in average assets.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company recorded $4,336,000 in net loan recoveries compared to $185,000 in net charge-offs for the same period in 2015.
