First National Bank of Northern California Reports Second Quarter 2016 Earnings of $0.52 per Diluted Share
(firmenpresse) - SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/27/16 -- FNB Bancorp (OTCBB: FNBG), parent company of First National Bank of Northern California (the "Bank"), today announced net earnings available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2016 of $2,448,000 or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to net earnings available to common shareholders of $2,071,000 or $0.45 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2015.
The second quarter of 2016 operating results, when compared to the same period a year ago, were positively affected by the completion of the America California Bank ("ACB") acquisition that occurred in September 2015. The ACB acquisition provided an opportunity for the Company to increase our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in a cost effective manner. During the second quarter of 2016, our net interest income was $10.5 million, a decrease of $180,000 from the first quarter of 2016. This decrease was caused by a decline in average earning assets outstanding of $6.7 million during the quarter, and a drop in yield of 18 basis points.
"During the second quarter of 2016, the Company was able to control operational expenses that helped to offset the negative affect of declines in total assets at June 30, 2016 as compared to March 31, 2016. The Company experienced declines in both our loan and deposit totals during the quarter, and these portfolio reductions serve as evidence of the difficulty of holding our relatively high net interest margin while at the same time striving to grow our balance sheet in a low interest rate environment. Net interest margins declined during the second quarter of 2016, due primarily to higher yielding loan payoffs that were partially reinvested into new loans at lower yields, lower yielding investment securities and partially used to maintain liquidity. During the second quarter of 2016, we were able to increase our noninterest bearing DDA deposit balances by $1.6 million. Management understands the values of our core deposit base and we make every effort to develop and grow our core deposit banking relationships," stated CEO Tom McGraw.
"During the second quarter of 2016, our non-accrual loans increased above levels experienced at year-end. The increase in non-accrual loans was not related to any systemic problems identified within any segments or loan types within our loan portfolio but was isolated to a few individual customer relationships. The Bank has worked hard to adhere to prudent underwriting standards as we continue to search for quality deposit and loan relationships. The second quarter provision for loan losses was $75,000. Management believes the level of reserves are sufficient to absorb expected losses inherent in our loan portfolio at June 30, 2016," continued Tom McGraw.
