GLEN ALLEN, Va., Oct. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Bankers Trust Corporation (the "Company") (NYSE Amex: BTC), the holding company for Essex Bank (the "Bank"), today reported third quarter 2011 net income of $1.4 million. This compares with a net loss of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 and net income of $521,000 in the second quarter of 2011.  Net income available to common stockholders was $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared with a net loss available to common stockholders of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2010 and net income available to common stockholders of $247,000 in the second quarter of 2011.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $748,000 and a net loss available to common stockholders of $70,000.  Net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 was $23.7 million and net loss available to common stockholders was $24.5 million.

Rex L. Smith, III, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, stated: "The earnings for the quarter show marked improvement for the Company in numerous areas. Most important is the decrease in the level of nonperforming loans and the continued resolution of nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned. When I assumed the role as CEO last March, my goal was to rapidly remediate operational and credit problems, gain efficiencies through consolidation, and begin down a path to increase earnings through core banking operations. Through intense focus on our strategic objectives, the results are beginning to prove that we are well on the way to meeting that vision."

Mr. Smith added, "We will continue to improve our profitability by reducing our cost of funds, finding quality loans in market niches that are being ignored, and increasing our fee based lines of business, all of which are evident in the results of this quarter. Despite the slow economy, I believe each quarter going forward will show improvement in the level of nonperforming loans, the net interest margin and overall earnings. We are working closely with our regulators to show that the Company has successfully completed the first phase of its long term strategy to become a premier provider of financial products in our marketplace for many years to come. We look forward to what the future holds for our Company and for our shareholders."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income available to common stockholders was $1.2 million, or $0.05 per common share on a diluted basis, for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared with a net loss available to common stockholders of $1.6 million, or $0.07 per common share on a diluted basis, for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. Net income was driven by a decrease in noninterest expenses of $1.7 million, an increase in noninterest income of $865,000 and an increase in net interest income of $629,000. Additionally, there was no provision for loan losses in the third quarter of 2011, compared with $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2010.

The following table presents summary income statements for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Interest Income

Interest income was $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2011, a decrease of $220,000, or 1.5%, from interest income of $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2011.  Interest and fees on covered loans was the primary contributor to this decrease, down $171,000 on a linked quarter basis to $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2011.  Covered FDIC loans are a self-liquidating business line and will consistently exhibit declining balances as the carrying value of these loans is reduced.  The carrying value of FDIC covered loans was $104.3 million at June 30, 2011 and $100.0 million at September 30, 2011.  

Interest income declined $881,000, or 5.8%, when comparing the third quarter of 2010 and 2011.  Interest income was $15.2 million in the third quarter of 2010 and declined to $14.3 million in the third quarter of 2011.  Interest and fees on non-covered loans declined $921,000 when comparing the third quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2010.  This was due to both rate and volume decreases.  Total securities income decreased $944,000 when comparing the third quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2010.  This also was the result of rate and volume decreases.  Offsetting these decreases was improved performance on the FDIC covered loan portfolio, which increased $975,000, from $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Interest income was $42.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $3.2 million from interest income of $45.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Average earning assets declined from $1.041 billion for the first nine months of 2010 to $935.9 million for the first nine months in 2011.  

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $3.0 million for the third quarter of 2011, a decrease of $105,000 from interest expense of $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2011.  Average interest bearing liabilities declined $8.6 million, or 1.0%, during the quarter.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined from 1.37% in the second quarter of 2011 to 1.34% in the third quarter of 2011.

Interest expense declined $1.5 million from $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2011. The 33.7% decrease resulted from decreases in both the amount of interest bearing liabilities and their cost, as time deposits renewed at lower rates. First, the average balance of interest bearing liabilities declined $123.4 million, or 12.2% from the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2011.  Second, the cost of interest bearing liabilities declined from 1.77% for the third quarter of 2010 to 1.34% in the third quarter of 2011.

Interest expense declined $5.1 million from $14.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $9.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  This decline of 35.4% was driven by a decline in average interest bearing liabilities, from $1.018 billion for the first nine months of 2010 to $901.4 million for the same period in 2011.  As previously mentioned, time deposits renewed at lower rates, and thus contributed to the decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities from 1.90% for the first nine months of 2010 to 1.39% for the first nine months in 2011.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $11.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared with $11.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  This represents a decrease of $115,000 or 1.0%.  On a tax equivalent basis, net interest income was $11.4 million for the third quarter of 2011 compared with tax equivalent net interest income of $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2011.  The tax equivalent net interest margin decreased from 5.01% in the second quarter of 2011 to 4.91% in the third quarter of 2011. This was due to a decline in net interest spread, from 4.97% to 4.85%, on a linked quarter basis.

Net interest income increased $629,000 from $10.7 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $11.3 million in the third quarter of 2011.  This represents an increase of 5.9% and was primarily the result of an increase in the Company's interest spread, from 4.26% in the third quarter of 2010 to 4.85% in the third quarter of 2011.  This increased the Company's net interest margin from 4.30% in the third quarter of 2010 to 4.91% for the same period in 2011.  A decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, from 1.77% for the third quarter of 2010 to 1.34% for the third quarter of 2011, coupled with an increase of 16 basis points, from 6.03% to 6.19%, in the yield on earning assets were the drivers of this increase.

Net interest income was $32.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared with $30.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The increase in net interest income was primarily the result of decreases of $116.4 million, or 11.4%, in the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities coupled with lower rates, which has reduced interest expense 35.4%, from $14.5 million in the first nine months of 2010 to $9.4 million for the first nine months of 2011.  The tax equivalent net interest margin increased to 4.73% in the first nine months of 2011 from 4.12% in the first nine months of 2010.  

The following table compares the Company's net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and June 30, 2011, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.  

Provision for Loan Losses

There was no provision for loan losses for non-covered loans for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  There was also no provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2011, but there was a provision for loan losses of $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The allowance for loan losses equaled 43.6% of non-covered nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2011, compared with 44.5% of non-covered nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2011. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total non-covered loans was 3.12% at September 30, 2011, compared with 3.35% at June 30, 2011 and 6.27% at September 30, 2010. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses to total non-covered loans from September 2010 to September 2011 is primarily the result of earlier recognition and resolution of problem credits and aggressive charge-offs, in addition to work-outs of nonperforming loans. Net charged-off loans have sequentially decreased over the previous four quarters.  Net charged-off loans have declined from $8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2011 and $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2011 and were $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2011.

The provision for loan losses on non-covered loans was $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $27.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Charged-off loans were $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.  Loan recoveries were $548,000 for the first nine months of 2011 compared with $786,000 for the same period in 2010.

The following table reconciles the activity in the Company's non-covered allowance for loan losses, by quarter, for the past six quarters.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was negative $662,000 for the third quarter of 2011 compared with negative $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2011.  Noninterest income in both periods is negative due to two factors -- FDIC indemnification asset amortization and loss on OREO.  The largest component of noninterest income was FDIC indemnification asset amortization, which reduces noninterest income, and was $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2011. By amortizing the FDIC indemnification asset, the Company is reducing the asset and recognizing interest income from borrowers of loans covered by FDIC shared loss agreements.  Loss on OREO was $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $249,000 in the second quarter of 2011. Management proactively assesses other real estate owned and as a result wrote down values by $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Noninterest income was positively affected by $1.7 million in gain on sale of securities recognized in the third quarter of 2011 and $176,000 in the second quarter of 2011.  Also positively affecting noninterest income on a linked quarter basis was an increase in other noninterest income of $338,000, from $662,000 in the second quarter of 2011 to $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2011.  Service charges on deposit accounts were $643,000 and $637,000, respectively, in the third quarter and second quarter of 2011.

Noninterest income increased $865,000, from negative $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, to negative $662,000 for the third quarter of 2011.  Gains on sale of securities were the largest contributor to this increase and were $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared with $296,000 of losses in the third quarter of 2010. Other income increased by $868,000 from the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2011.  These increases were reduced by an increase of $901,000 in loss on OREO, from $770,000 in the third quarter of 2010 to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2011, and by an increase of $1.1 million in FDIC indemnification asset amortization, from $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2011.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, noninterest income equaled negative $3.5 million, compared with negative $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This change was due primarily to accelerated FDIC indemnification asset amortization of $5.8 million, from $2.0 million for the first nine months of 2010 to $7.8 million for the same period in 2011.  The increase in FDIC indemnification asset amortization has resulted in the increased yield realized in interest and fees on FDIC covered loans over the same time frame, as projected losses carried within the FDIC indemnification asset have been realized instead, through payment performance of the associated borrowers.  Other noninterest income declined in the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared with the same period in 2010.  Other noninterest income was $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  This decrease reflects fewer reimbursable loss events in FDIC covered loans.

Positively affecting noninterest income over the nine month comparison periods were gains/(losses) on sales of securities, which increased by $3.0 million, from a loss of $394,000 in the first nine months of 2010 to gains realized of $2.6 million for the same period in 2011.  Additionally, there was a reduction in losses on OREO properties of $1.8 million, from $4.3 million for the first nine months of 2010 to $2.5 million for the same period in 2011.  

Noninterest Expense

On a linked quarter basis, noninterest expenses totaled $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $9.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $652,000, or 7.0%. All expense categories declined, on a linked quarter basis, with the exception of legal fees and data processing expense, which increased $206,000 and $2,000, respectively, in the third quarter of 2011 compared with the second quarter of 2011. Legal fees were $241,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared with $35,000 in the second quarter of 2011. The increase reflects a $155,000 one time settlement relating to a put-back requirement in a note sale agreement from early 2008. Data processing expenses were $478,000 in the third quarter of 2011 and $476,000 in the second quarter of 2011.

Other operating expenses decreased $351,000, or 16.9%, from $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2011 to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Of this decrease, $183,000 was related to the issuance of annual stock retainers for Directors fully recognized in the second quarter of 2011. Additionally, direct expenses on other real estate owned decreased $104,000 on a linked quarter basis.

FDIC assessment expense was $580,000 in the third quarter of 2011 compared with $761,000 in the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $181,000, or 23.8%.  A change in the methodology used to calculate this assessment lowered the expense in the third quarter of 2011 compared with the second quarter of 2011.  Professional fees were $68,000 and decreased 65.7%, or $130,000, in the third quarter of 2011 compared with $198,000 in the second quarter of 2011.  

Salaries and employee benefits were $4.1 million, a decline of $121,000, or 2.9%, in the third quarter of 2011, compared with $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2011.  Occupancy expenses were $687,000 in the third quarter of 2011, a decline of $46,000, or 6.3%, from the second quarter of 2011 total of $733,000.  Equipment expense declined $31,000, or 9.7%, and were $289,000 in the third quarter of 2011 compared with $320,000 in the second quarter of 2011.

Noninterest expenses declined $1.7 million when comparing the third quarter of 2011 to the same period in 2010.  Salaries and employee benefits were the largest category decrease and were $5.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $4.1 million in the third quarter of 2011, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 22.9%.  Also seeing significant declines were professional fees and data processing expenses. Professional fees declined 84.0%, or $357,000, when comparing the third quarter 2011 total of $68,000 to the third quarter 2010 total of $425,000.  Data processing expenses declined $257,000, or 35.0%, from $735,000 in the third quarter of 2010 to $478,000 in the third quarter of 2011. Partially offsetting these declines were increases of $124,000 in legal fees and $109,000 in other operating expenses when comparing the third quarter of 2011 to the same period in 2010.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, noninterest expense declined $9.2 million when compared with the same period in 2010.  Excluding goodwill impairment charges of $5.7 million in 2010, noninterest expenses would have declined $3.5 million, or 11.3%.  Noninterest expenses, excluding goodwill, were $30.7 million for the first nine months of 2010 and declined to $27.2 million for the first nine months in 2011.  The two major drivers of this decrease were salaries and employee benefits, which declined $2.8 million over the nine months comparison periods, and professional fees, which decreased $1.0 million.  Salaries and employee benefits were $15.2 million for the first nine months of 2010 and $12.4 million for the first nine months of 2011, a decrease of 18.2%.  Professional fees were $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2010 and $457,000 for the first nine months of 2011, a decrease of 69.6%.  Additionally, data processing expenses declined $406,000 when comparing the first nine months of 2010 to the same period in 2011.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, income tax benefits were $178,000 compared with income tax benefit of $10.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Time deposits declined $50.6 million during the first nine months of 2011 as management kept rates low among all regions as loan demand remained weak and covered loans continued to decline in volume. The Company is attempting to restructure the deposit mix away from higher priced deposits and more into lower cost transactional accounts. Money market deposit accounts were $117.9 million at September 30, 2011, a decline of $9.7 million, or 7.6% from money market deposit account balances of $127.6 million at December 31, 2010.

During the first nine months of 2011, NOW accounts increased $4.3 million, or 4.0%, from $106.2 million at December 31, 2010 to $110.5 million at September 30, 2011.  Additionally, savings accounts increased $4.2 million, or 6.6%, during the first nine months of 2011.   The Company's total loan-to-deposit ratio was 66.1% at September 30, 2011 compared with 66.7% at December 31, 2010.

Asset Quality – non-covered assets

Nonaccrual loans were $36.2 million at September 30, 2011, compared with $37.7 million at June 30, 2011. This $1.5 million decrease was comprised of $7.3 million in additions to nonaccrual loans and $8.8 million of loans removed from nonaccrual status. Total nonperforming assets decreased $5.0 million from $50.1 million at June 30, 2011 to $45.1 million at September 30, 2011. Total charge-offs for the third quarter of 2011 were $1.4 million and recoveries were $327,000.  Non-covered other real estate owned decreased $3.5 million, from $12.4 million at June 30, 2011 to $8.9 million at September 30, 2011. The change in non-covered other real estate owned during the third quarter of 2011 was reflected in additions of $673,000 and reductions by sales of $2.4 million, write-downs of $1.1 million and transfers of $700,000.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net charge-offs were $11.3 million compared to $10.4 million for the same period in 2010.  Total charge-offs were $11.8 million for the first nine months of 2011 and $11.2 million for the same period in 2010.  Recoveries for the nine month comparison period were $548,000 in 2011 and $786,000 in 2010. Management's aggressive strategy to work nonperforming loans and other real estate owned is evidenced in the volume of charge-offs as well as the level of the loan loss reserve.

Nonperforming assets to loans and other real estate declined from 9.76% at June 30, 2011 to 8.78% at September 30, 2011. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming assets was 34.94% at September 30, 2011, compared with 33.52% at June 30, 2011 and 72.09% at September 30, 2010.

This release contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements with respect to the Company's operations, growth strategy and goals. Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, without limitation, the effects of and changes in the following: the quality or composition of the Company's loan or investment portfolios, including collateral values and the repayment abilities of borrowers and issuers; assumptions that underlie the Company's allowance for loan losses; general economic and market conditions, either nationally or in the Company's  market areas; the ability of the Company to comply with regulatory actions, and the costs associated with doing so; the interest rate environment; competitive pressures among banks and financial institutions or from companies outside the banking industry; real estate values; the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; the demand, development and acceptance of new products and services; the Company's compliance with, and the timing of future reimbursements from the FDIC to the Company under, the shared loss agreements; assumptions and estimates that underlie the accounting for loan pools under the shared loss agreements; consumer profiles and spending and savings habits; the securities and credit markets; costs associated with the integration of banking and other internal operations; management's evaluation of goodwill and other assets on a periodic basis, and any resulting impairment charges, under applicable accounting standards; the soundness of other financial institutions with which the Company does business; inflation; technology; and legislative and regulatory requirements. Many of these factors and additional risks and uncertainties are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and other reports filed from time to time by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The information below presents certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Common tangible book value equals total stockholders' equity less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, and common tangible book value per share is computed by dividing common tangible book value by the number of common shares outstanding. Common tangible assets equal total assets less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.

Management believes that common tangible book value and the ratio of common tangible book value to common tangible assets are meaningful because they are some of the measures that the Company and investors use to assess capital adequacy. Management believes that presenting the change in common tangible book value per share, the change in stock price to common tangible book value per share, and the change in the ratio of common tangible book value to common tangible assets provide meaningful period-to-period comparisons of these measures.

These measures are a supplement to GAAP used to prepare the Company's financial statements and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP measures. In addition, the Company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following table reconcile these non-GAAP measures from their respective GAAP basis measures.
