Rex L. Smith, III, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, stated,  "The results of the second quarter show the bank is ready for strong yet controlled growth.  With most of our previous asset quality issues now in resolution, we are focused on expanding our retail franchise and our lending base.  The time and expense previously used for problem remediation is now turning toward positive growth.   For example, in May, we announced the opening of a new branch office in Annapolis.  Additionally, we added three experienced senior lenders to the Maryland banking team.

"We also expanded our small business lending group in central Virginia and added an experienced banker from a larger organization to head up the group.  The results are already positive as our net loan growth in the non-covered portfolio was over $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with $4 million of growth for the first six months of 2012.  Our noninterest bearing deposits also increased by over $10 million as a consequence of our growth initiatives.

"Our strategic initiatives continue to reflect positive results as subsequent to the end of the second quarter we were given regulatory approval to repay, and repaid, $4.5 million in TARP funds to the U.S. Treasury.  The July 24 repayment of over 25% of the total amount of the original TARP investment has no effect on our common tangible book value and is the result of the Company's improved financial position."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2013. This compares with net income of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2012 and net income of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2013.  Net income available to common stockholders was $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with net income available to common stockholders of $934,000 in the second quarter of 2012 and net income available to common stockholders of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2013.  Earnings per common share, basic and fully diluted, were $0.06 per share for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $0.04 per share for the second quarter of 2012 and $0.05 per share for the first quarter of 2013.

The increase of $397,000 in net income year over year was driven by a decrease in noninterest expense of $1.2 million, or 11.6%.  A reduction of $391,000 in FDIC indemnification asset amortization was the largest decrease in noninterest expense when comparing the second quarter of 2013 to the same period in 2012.  Also decreasing year over year were other operating expenses, which declined $373,000, or 20.8%, salaries and employee benefits, which declined $276,000, or 6.6%, and FDIC assessment, which declined $273,000, or 55.0%.  Additionally, there was no provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2013, while there was a $500,000 provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2012.

Improvement in noninterest expense was offset by a decrease of $332,000 in net interest income after provision for loan losses and a decrease of $308,000 in noninterest income.  Loss on sale of other real estate owned ("OREO") reflected losses and write-downs of $418,000 on OREO properties in the second quarter of 2013 compared with losses and write-downs of $229,000 for the same period of 2012.  Management resolves problem credits with aggressive valuation and disposition, as can be evidenced when reviewing Asset Quality further in this press release.

The following table presents summary income statements for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Interest Income

Interest income was $12.5 million for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $325,000, or 2.7%, from the first quarter of 2013.  Interest and fees on loans (both covered and non-covered) increased $197,000 on a linked quarter basis.  This increase was the result of an increase of $2.7 million in the average balance of loans.  Likewise, after a declining trend in the yield on the average balance of loans, the rate earned on the non-covered loan portfolio has stabilized and was 5.24% in the second quarter of 2013 and 5.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Interest income on securities increased $123,000, on a linked quarter basis, as the yield on investment securities, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to 2.80% in the second quarter of 2013 compared with yield of 2.60% in the first quarter of 2013.

Interest income declined $1.6 million, or 11.5%, when comparing the second quarters of 2013 and 2012.  Interest income was $12.5 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2012.  Interest and fees on FDIC covered loans declined $1.6 million when comparing the second quarter of 2013 to the second quarter of 2012.  This was due to average balances on FDIC covered loans declining $10.8 million, when comparing the second quarter of 2013 to the same period in 2012, combined with a decline in the yield on FDIC covered loans from 18.77% to 13.40%.  Non-covered interest and fees on loans was $7.6 million in both the second quarters of 2013 and 2012.  Non-covered loan yield declined from 5.48% in the second quarter of 2012 to 5.24% in the second quarter of 2013.  This decline was mitigated by an increase in the average balance of non-covered loans, from $553.2 million for the second quarter of 2012 to $582.9 million for the same period in 2013.  Despite the lower rate environment and the fierce competition among financial institutions for lending activity, this rate and volume activity resulted in a slight increase of $48,000 in interest income on non-covered loans. Tax equivalent interest income on securities remained constant and was $2.2 million for the second quarter of both 2013 and 2012.   The yield on securities, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased from 3.16% in the second quarter of 2012 to 2.80% in the second quarter of 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, interest income of $24.7 million represented a decrease of $3.3 million, or 11.7%, from interest income of $27.9 million for the same period in 2012.  Interest and fees on FDIC covered loans decreased $2.9 million when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2013 to the same period in 2012.  Loans covered by the FDIC shared-loss agreements either make scheduled principal payments, payoff, mature or are charged-off and billed at a rate of 80% of loss to the FDIC.  Once these balances decline, amounts represented by the FDIC guarantee is reduced.  Interest and fees on non-covered loans was $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with $15.3 million for the same period in 2012.  The rate earned on these balances declined from 5.53% for the first six months of 2012 to 5.25% for the first six months of 2013.  This rate decline was mitigated, in large part, by an increase in the average balance of non-covered loans of $30.3 million, or 5.5%, when comparing the six month periods of 2013 and 2012.  Interest and dividends on securities decreased $257,000 when comparing the first six months of 2012 to the same period in 2013, and was $4.1 million for the first six months of 2013 compared with $4.4 million for the same period in 2012.  The yield on securities, on a tax equivalent basis, was 2.70% for the first six months of 2013, a decline from 3.11% for the first six months of 2012.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared with interest expense of $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2013, an improvement of $103,000, or 5.4%.  Average interest bearing deposits decreased $15.1 million during the second quarter.  Additionally, the cost of interest bearing liabilities declined from 0.83% in the first quarter of 2013 to 0.79% in the second quarter of 2013.  The average balance of noninterest bearing deposits increased 7.3%, or $5.5 million, on a linked quarter basis.

Year over year, interest expense declined $796,000, from $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2013. This expense decline of 30.8% resulted from decreases in cost as well as a decline in the level of interest bearing deposits.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined from 1.13% in the second quarter of 2012 to 0.79% in the second quarter of 2013.  The cost of deposits declined similarly from 1.03% in the second quarter of 2012 to 0.75% for the second quarter of 2013.  The cost of FHLB and other borrowings also exhibited improvement, from 3.33% in the second quarter of 2012 to 1.41% in the second quarter of 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 total interest expense declined $1.6 million, or 30.5%, and was $3.7 million compared with $5.3 million for the same period in 2012.  The cost of interest bearing deposits decreased from $4.6 million to $3.3 million when comparing the first six months of 2012 and 2013, respectively.  The rate paid on average total interest bearing deposits declined from 1.06% to 0.77%.  The cost of FHLB and other borrowings declined for the first six months of 2013 to 1.43% compared with 3.42% for the same period in 2012.  The cost of total interest bearing liabilities decreased from 1.16% for the first six months of 2012 to 0.81% for the same period in 2013.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $10.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared with $10.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.  This represents an increase of $428,000, or 4.2%.  On a tax equivalent basis, net interest income was $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $10.3 million for the first quarter of 2013. Additionally, an increase in the yield on earning assets of 11 basis points, coupled with a four basis point decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, improved the interest spread and net interest margin on a linked quarter basis.  The tax equivalent net interest margin increased from 4.17% in the first quarter of 2013 to 4.32% in the second quarter of 2013. The interest spread increased from 4.10% to 4.25% on a linked quarter basis. 

Year over year, net interest income decreased $832,000, or 7.2%, from $11.5 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2013.  This was primarily the result of a decrease in the Company's interest spread, from 4.71% in the second quarter of 2012 to 4.25% in the second quarter of 2013.  While the cost of interest bearing liabilities declined 34 basis points, year over year, from 1.13% to 0.79%, the yield on earning assets declined by a larger degree, from 5.84% to 5.04%, or 80 basis points.  This decreased the Company's net interest margin from 4.78% in the second quarter of 2012 to 4.32% for the same period in 2013. 

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net interest income of $21.0 million decreased $1.7 million, or 7.3%, from net interest income of $22.6 million for the first six months of 2012.  The Company's net interest spread declined from 4.65% for the first six months of 2012 to 4.18% for the same period in 2013.  While the cost of interest bearing liabilities declined from 1.16% to 0.81% during the comparison period, the yield on earning assets declined by 82 basis points, from 5.81% for the first six months of 2012 to 4.99% for the same period in 2013. The result of this activity was a net interest margin of 4.25% for the first six months of 2013 compared with 4.71% for the first six months in 2012.

The following tables compare the Company's net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2013 and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Provision for Loan Losses

No provision for loan losses was recorded for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2013.  The Company records a separate provision for loan losses for its non-covered loan portfolio and its FDIC covered loan portfolio.    There was no provision for loan losses on the non-covered loan portfolio for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013.  This was the result of increased coverage levels for the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans and the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans.  A decrease in the level of nonperforming assets to loans and other real estate and the level of net charge-offs for the periods has resulted in the increased coverage levels.  These items will be presented in greater detail in the Asset Quality section of this press release.  There was no provision for loan losses on the FDIC covered loan portfolio during 2013.

The provision for loan losses on non-covered loans was $500,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.  The provision for loan losses on non-covered loans was $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The provision for loan losses on the FDIC covered loan portfolio was a $250,000 credit for each of the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013.  Improvement in expected losses on the Company's FDIC covered portfolio resulted in the $250,000 provision benefit during the first quarter of 2012.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $971,000 for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $730,000 for the first quarter of 2013.  This is a linked quarter increase of $241,000, or 33.0%.  A decrease of $212,000 in loss on OREO positively influenced noninterest income.  The loss on OREO was $418,000 for the second quarter of 2013 compared with a loss of $630,000 for the first quarter of 2013.  Other noninterest income improved on a linked quarter basis, from $419,000 in the first quarter of 2013 to $558,000 in the second quarter of 2013.  Service charges on deposit accounts also improved performance on a linked quarter basis and increased $38,000, or 5.7%, from $663,000 in the first quarter of 2013 to $701,000 in the second quarter of 2013.  Offsetting these increases was a decline of $148,000, or 53.2%, in gains on sales of securities, which was $130,000 in the second quarter of 2013, down from $278,000 in the first quarter of 2013.

Year over year, noninterest income decreased $308,000, from $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $971,000 in the second quarter of 2013.  Loss on OREO was the largest contributor to this decrease as losses on the sale and write-down of OREO increased to $418,000 in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $229,000 in the second quarter of 2012.  Gains/(loss) on sale of securities reflected gains of $130,000 in the second quarter of 2013 compared with gains of $290,000 for the same period in 2012.  Offsetting these year-over-year decreases to noninterest income were increases of $27,000 in service charges on deposit accounts and $14,000 in other noninterest income.

Noninterest income declined $403,000 when comparing the sixth months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.  Noninterest income of $1.7 million for the first two quarters of 2013 compared with $2.1 million for the same period in 2012.  Loss on OREO increased $642,000 and reflected a loss of $1.0 million for the first six months of 2013 compared with a loss of $406,000 for the same period in 2012.  Other noninterest income decreased $68,000 when compared to the first six months of 2012.  Offsetting these decreases was an increase in gains on sales of securities of $234,000, as such gains were $174,000 for the first six months of 2012 compared with $408,000 for the same period in 2013.  Service charges on deposit accounts increased $73,000 when comparing the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Noninterest expenses declined $1.2 million, or 11.6%, when comparing the second quarter of 2013 to the same period in 2012.  FDIC indemnification asset amortization decreased $391,000, year over year, from $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2012 to $1.6 million for the same period in 2013.  Other operating expenses declined $373,000, from $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2013.  Salaries and employee benefits decreased $276,000, from $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2013.  FDIC assessment declined $273,000, from $496,000 in the second quarter of 2012 to $223,000 in the second quarter of 2013.

At June 30, 2013, the Company had total assets of $1.1 billion, a decrease of $28.7 million, or 2.5%, from total assets of $1.2 billion at December 31, 2012.  Total loans were $667.2 million at June 30, 2013, increasing $7.1 million from $660.1 million at December 31, 2012 and $25.4 million, or 4.0%, since June 30, 2012.   The carrying value of FDIC covered loans declined $5.2 million, or 6.1%, from December 31, 2012 and were $79.5 million at June 30, 2013. Non-covered loans equaled $587.8 million at June 30, 2013, increasing $12.3 million since December 31, 2012.   During the second quarter of 2013, total non-covered loans increased by $7.9 million.

The following table shows the composition of the Company's non-covered loan portfolio at June 30, 2013, March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The Company's securities portfolio, excluding equity securities, decreased $37.5 million, or 10.7%, from $351.4 million at December 31, 2012 to $313.9 million at June 30, 2013. Realized gains of $408,000 occurred during the first two quarters of 2013 through sales and call activity.  The Company took a short-term position in a $40 million U.S. Treasury issue at December 31, 2012 to fully invest short-term excess cash balances on deposit by local municipal governments.  The issue matured in the first quarter of 2013 and is the primary factor for the decrease in securities balances from December 31, 2012.  The maturity of these funds was not reinvested but was offset by a decline in public funds.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $25.3 million at June 30, 2013, up slightly from $24.1 million at December 31, 2012.  There was $1.0 million in Federal funds purchased at June 30, 2013 compared with $5.4 million at December 31, 2012. 

The following table shows the composition of the Company's securities portfolio, excluding equity securities, at June 30, 2013, March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Interest bearing deposits at June 30, 2013 were $864.2 million, a decrease of $32.1 million from December 31, 2012. The only category experiencing growth during 2013 is savings deposits, which increased 7.8%, or $6.1 million, during the first six months of 2013.  Time deposits $100,000 and over decreased $21.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as management did not renew a $20 million public funds certificate of deposit.  NOW accounts decreased $7.2 million, or 5.0%, during 2013, and were impacted by seasonality and anticipated outflows of public funds accumulated in the fourth quarter of 2012.  NOW accounts have since regained some of this decrease, as balances increased by $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2013.  Time deposits less than $100,000 decreased $7.5 million during the first six months of 2013 as management continues to attempt to lower interest expense by repricing certificates of deposit at lower rates.  MMDA accounts declined $2.2 million during the first two quarters of 2013. 

The following table compares the mix of interest bearing deposits for June 30, 2013, March 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.

The Company had Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances of $49.5 million at June 30, 2013 compared with $49.8 million at December 31, 2012.  The blended rate on the average balance of these borrowings was 1.43% during the first six months of 2013.

Stockholders' equity was $112.8 million at June 30, 2013 and $115.3 million at December 31, 2012. The equity-to-asset ratios were 10.0% at June 30, 2013 and 10.0% at December 31, 2012.

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 reconciles these non-GAAP measures from their respective GAAP basis measures.
