North State Bancorp Reports Third Quarter 2010 Earnings
Company reports 109% increase in quarterly profits.
RALEIGH, N.C., Nov. 15, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- North State Bancorp (OTC Bulletin Board: NSBC the "Company"), the holding company for North State Bank, reported net income for third quarter 2010 of $339,000 compared to $161,000 for the third quarter 2009, an increase of $178,000 of 110.6%. Net income results for the third quarter of 2010 include gains on security sales which were $108,000 or $66,000 net of taxes for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. The year-to-year increase in earnings for third quarter 2010 also is principally a result of significantly higher non-interest income (an increase of $1.4 million) and higher net interest margins (an increase of $691,000). Diluted earnings per share were $.05 for the third quarter 2010 compared to $.02 for third quarter 2009. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, net income was $1.2 million, a decrease of $324,000 or 21.8% from net income of $1.5 million reported for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009. Diluted earnings per share were $.16 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $.20 for the same period in 2009.
Total assets for the Company as of September 30, 2010 were $633.4 million compared to $710.8 million as of September 30, 2009, a decrease of $77.4 million. Total deposits and total loans as of September 30, 2010 were $559.5 million and $501.6 million, respectively, compared to total deposits and total loans as of September 30, 2009 of $633.6 million and $534.1 million, respectively. The reduction in total assets and total deposits is the result of the Company's intentional and continuing efforts to reduce non-core fundings, which decreased $99.4 million in a year-to-year comparison from September 30, 2009, to September 30, 2010. Core deposits, which primarily include demand deposit, money market and time deposit accounts for our customers, increased by $25.3 million over the same period. The reduction in total loans is a result of both the Company's intense focus on only banking customers who seek a mutually beneficial banking relationship, as well as the impact of the recession on overall loan demand.
Larry D. Barbour, president and CEO stated, "We are pleased to report these positive earnings in a difficult economy. The growth in earnings for the third quarter of 2010 is a direct result of deliberate changes in our balance sheet, principally the reduction in non-core fundings, the addition of Affiliated Mortgage which we acquired in February of 2010, changes within our Wealth Management division and our prudent control over non-interest expenses. North State Bank remains committed to expanding relationships with current customers, as well as pursuing new customers who seek a mutually beneficial banking relationship.
"Our success in growing core deposits has been due in large part to the success of CommunityPLUS, a division of North State Bank specifically focused on serving the needs of community association management firms. Since forming this division, deposits held in these accounts have increased dramatically – from $112.0 million at December 31, 2008 to $180.4 million or 61.1% as of September 30, 2010."
Founded in 2000, North State Bank is a full-service community bank, serving Wake and New Hanover Counties through seven full-service offices.
North State Bancorp is listed on the OTC electronic bulletin board under the symbol "NSBC."
This news release contains forward-looking statements. The actual results might differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements for various reasons, including changes in real estate values and the real estate market, economic conditions, regulatory changes, changes in interest rates, substantial changes in financial markets, our ability to manage growth and loss of deposits and loan demand to other savings and financial institutions.

(1)Excludes nonaccrual loans (2)We define core earnings as operating income before securities gains (losses), loan loss reserves, OREO (other real estate owned) write-downs and taxes. Core earnings is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Core earnings do not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net income, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our definition of core earnings might not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies. We believe that the presentation of core earnings is useful to investors because it provides important information of our operating performance exclusive of non-recurring expenses of loan loss reserves and OREO write-downs as well as taxes. |
