First Bancorp Reports Fourth Quarter and Annual Earnings
TROY, N.C., Feb. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- First Bancorp (Nasdaq: FBNC), the parent company of First Bank, announced today fourth quarter net income available to common shareholders of $4.3 million compared to $5.0 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2008. Earnings per diluted common share were $0.25 in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $0.30 in the fourth quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $56.3 million compared to $22.0 million reported for 2008. Earnings per diluted common share were $3.37 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $1.37 for 2008.
Several significant factors affect the comparability of the 2009 and 2008 results, including the following:
- In the second quarter of 2009, the Company realized a $67.9 million gain related to the acquisition of Cooperative Bank in Wilmington, North Carolina. This gain resulted from the difference between the purchase price and the acquisition-date fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities. The after-tax impact of this gain was $41.1 million, or $2.46 per diluted common share.
- The Company recorded acquisition related expenses related to Cooperative Bank totaling $1,343,000, consisting primarily of professional fees. The after-tax impact of these expenses was $813,000 (or $0.05 per diluted common share).
- The Company recorded approximately $1.0 million in preferred stock dividends in each quarter of 2009 related to the January 12, 2009 issuance of preferred stock to the U.S. Treasury. For the year ended December 31, 2009, total preferred stock dividends of $4.0 million reduced the Company's net income available to common shareholders.
- FDIC insurance expense amounted to $5.5 million in 2009 compared to $1.2 million in 2008. The after-tax impact of the increase in this expense was $2.6 million (or $0.16 per diluted common share).
Update on Cooperative Bank Acquisition
On June 19, 2009, First Bank acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Cooperative Bank, which had been closed earlier that day by regulatory authorities. Cooperative Bank operated through twenty-one branches in North Carolina and three branches in South Carolina. In connection with the acquisition, First Bank assumed assets with a book value of $958 million, including $829 million in loans and $706 million in deposits. The loans and foreclosed real estate purchased are covered by a loss share agreement between the FDIC and First Bank which affords First Bank significant loss protection. Under the loss share agreement, the FDIC covers 80% of loan and foreclosed real estate losses up to $303 million and 95% of losses that exceed that amount.
First Bank received a $123 million discount on the assets acquired and paid no deposit premium, which, after applying initial estimates of purchase accounting fair market value adjustments to the acquired assets and assumed deposits, resulted in an original gain of $53.8 million.
During the third and fourth quarters of 2009, the Company obtained third-party appraisals for the majority of Cooperative's collateral dependent problem loans. Overall, the appraised values were higher than the Company's original estimates made as of the acquisition date. In addition, subsequent to June 19, the Company received payoffs related to certain loans for which losses had been anticipated. Accordingly, as required by relevant accounting rules, the Company retrospectively adjusted the fair value of the loans acquired for these factors, which resulted in the acquisition gain that was recorded in the second quarter of 2009 increasing by $8.3 million for information determined in the third quarter of 2009 and by an additional $5.8 million for information determined in the fourth quarter of 2009. Thus, the originally stated second quarter of 2009 gain of $53.8 million has been increased to $67.9 million, all on a retroactive basis. The Company continues to obtain more information regarding the fair value of the assets acquired. Fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as information relative to closing date fair values becomes available, and thus the gain could be adjusted again (up or down) in the future during the one year period.
On October 9, 2009, First Bank successfully converted Cooperative's loan and deposit records to First Bank's computer system. Also on that day, five branches were consolidated in market areas in which First Bank branches were in close proximity with former Cooperative Bank branches. On December 11, 2009, two additional branches were consolidated with existing First Bank branches.
Balance Sheet and Capital
Total assets at December 31, 2009, including the impact of Cooperative, amounted to $3.5 billion, 28.9% higher than a year earlier. Total loans at December 31, 2009 amounted to $2.7 billion, a 20.0% increase from a year earlier, and total deposits amounted to $2.9 billion at December 31, 2009, a 41.4% increase from a year earlier.
Excluding the effects of the Cooperative acquisition, the Company experienced a general decline in loans and an increase in deposits during 2009. Excluding the impact of Cooperative, loans declined approximately 4% in 2009. The Company continues to originate and renew a significant amount of loans each month, but normal paydowns of loans have exceeded new loan growth. Excluding the impact of Cooperative, the Company experienced deposit growth of approximately 7% in 2009. Additionally, the Company has steadily lessened its reliance on brokered deposits and internet deposits since the Cooperative acquisition. Brokered deposits comprised just 2.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2009, with internet deposits comprising an additional 4.4%.
The combination of lower loans and higher deposits has significantly enhanced the Company's liquidity during 2009 and lessened its reliance on borrowings. At December 31, 2009, the Company's cash balances exceeded $350 million, a 56% increase from a year earlier, while borrowings declined by approximately $190 million during the year.
The Company remains well-capitalized by all regulatory standards with a Tier I Leverage Ratio of 9.30%, a Tier I Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 13.90% and a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 15.15%. The Company's tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 5.94% at December 31, 2009. The Company continues to have $65 million in outstanding preferred stock that was issued to the US Treasury in January 2009. The Company has no immediate plans to redeem this stock in light of the challenging economic conditions.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2009 amounted to $31.0 million, a 37.9% increase over the fourth quarter of 2008. Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to $86.9 million, a 13.3% increase from 2008.
The increases in net interest income were primarily due to 1) the higher average balances of loans and deposits previously discussed, and 2) a higher net interest margin.
The Company's net interest margin (tax-equivalent net interest income divided by average earnings assets) in the fourth quarter of 2009 was 3.92%, a five basis point increase from the 3.87% margin realized in the third quarter of 2009, and a 22 basis point increase from the 3.70% margin realized in the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company's net interest margin for 2009 was 3.81% compared to 3.74% for 2008. During 2009, there were no changes in the interest rates set by the Federal Reserve, and the Company was able to reprice at lower rates maturing time deposits that had been originated in periods of higher interest rates.
Provision for Loan Losses and Asset Quality
The current economic environment has resulted in an increase in the Company's loan losses and nonperforming assets, which has led to significantly higher provisions for loan losses. The Company's provision for loan losses amounted to $6.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $20.2 million compared to $10.0 million recorded in 2008.
The increases in the provisions for loan losses are solely attributable to the Company's "non-covered" loan portfolio, which excludes loans assumed from Cooperative that are subject to the loss share agreement with the FDIC. The Company does not expect to record any significant loan loss provisions in the foreseeable future related to the loan portfolio acquired from Cooperative because these loans were written down to estimated fair market value in connection with the recording of the acquisition.
The Company's non-covered nonperforming assets at December 31, 2009 amounted to $92 million at December 31, 2009 compared to $66 million at September 30, 2009 and $35 million at December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2009, the ratio of non-covered nonperforming assets to total non-covered assets was 3.10% compared to 2.21% at September 30, 2009, and 1.29% at December 31, 2008.
Within non-covered nonperforming assets, troubled debt restructurings increased from $7 million at September 30, 2009 to $21 million at December 31, 2009. This increase was a result of the Company working with borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by modifying certain loan terms and was also impacted by the Company's analysis of the Federal Reserve's October 2009 guidance related to real estate loan workouts, which provided clarification of situations involving borrowers that should be reported as troubled debt restructurings. At December 31, 2009, all of the Company's troubled debt restructurings were performing in accordance with their restructured terms, with none of them being past due.
The Company's ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average non-covered loans was 0.69% for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to 0.38% in the fourth quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company's ratio of net charge-offs to average non-covered loans was 0.56% compared to 0.24% for 2008.
The Company's nonperforming assets that are covered by FDIC loss share agreements have increased from $91 million at June 30, 2009 to $165 million at December 31, 2009. The Company continues to submit claims to the FDIC on a regular basis and has received total cash reimbursements from the FDIC of approximately $40 million pursuant to the loss-share agreements since the Cooperative acquisition.
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income was $6.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, a 26.1% increase from the $5.0 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008, with the increase being attributable to a larger customer base as a result of the Cooperative acquisition and an increase in fees received from presold mortgages. Mortgage refinance activity has increased due to a favorable interest environment.
Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to $89.5 million compared to $21.1 million for 2008. The primary reason for the increase was the $67.9 million gain realized from the Cooperative acquisition that occurred in June 2009, as discussed above.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses amounted to $22.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, a 39.7% increase over the $16.1 million recorded in the same period of 2008. Noninterest expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 amounted to $78.6 million, a 25.4% increase from the $62.7 million recorded in 2008.
Incremental operating expenses associated with the Cooperative acquisition were the primary reason for the increases in 2009. Additionally, FDIC insurance expense amounted to $1.0 million and $5.5 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009, compared to $0.3 million and $1.2 million for the comparable periods of 2008, respectively. Included in the $5.5 million in FDIC insurance expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 is $1.6 million related to a special assessment that was levied by the FDIC on all banks in the second quarter of 2009.
In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded acquisition related expenses related to Cooperative Bank of $261,000 consisting primarily of professional fees. The Company recorded $1.3 million in acquisition related expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The Company's effective tax rate was approximately 36%-38% for all periods presented.
