"The first half of 2018 has provided the Bank with unprecedented growth in the loan portfolio, and the increase in net income is outperforming 2017. Net Income has increased 136% compared to the first half of 2017", stated Anker Fanoe, President and Chief Executive Officer. He continued, "We have been strategically investing in our people and processes this year, focusing on enhancing customer engagement. Thus far, the outcomes have exceeded our expectations. The momentum we are seeing is reflected in the positive growth of the Bank."
Total assets were $267.7 million, as of June 30, 2018. This represents a net growth of $6.5 million over the same period last year. Asset quality continues to improve and as of June 30, 2018, non-performing assets accounted for less than 1% of the Bank's total assets.
Loans Outstanding at June 30, 2018, totaled $228.3 million, an increase of $45.8 million or 25% over June 30, 2017. Nonaccrual loan balances totaled $556 thousand versus $3.5 million reported at June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2018, the Bank's Allowance for Loan Losses (ALLL) was $4.3 million or 2% of loans outstanding. The ALLL increased 25% between this year and last year due to recoveries received on previously charged off loans. There have not been any loans charged off in 2018.
As of June 30, 2018, Total Deposits finished at $219.7 million, down from $230.8 million, as of the same period last year. This represents a 5% decrease and is consistent with deposit activity associated with seasonal cycle of the Bank's agricultural depositors. Historically, deposits have flowed out of the Bank in the early part of the year, and inflow back into the Bank in the second half of the year as payments are received.
Shareholder's Equity continues to be strong and the Bank's capital ratios well exceed regulatory capital ratio minimums. In accordance with regulatory guidelines, the Bank is considered to be well-capitalized. As of June 30, 2018, Total Capital was $31.5 million, versus $29.3 million reported for June 2017, an increase of $2.1 million. The Bank has the necessary capital to continue the support of the Bank's strategic loan growth.
Capital Ratios, as reported in the June 30, 2018 Call Report:
Leverage Ratio 11.74%
Tier 1 Capital Ratio 13.65%
Total Capital Ratio 14.91%
At June 30, 2018, Net Interest Income was $5.3 million for the first half of 2018, representing an increase of 16% increase year over year. This increase can be attributed to the significant loan growth the Bank has experienced within the past year. In the first half of 2018, Non-Interest Income totaled $277.5 thousand, outpacing the same time frame last year by 8%. Operating Expenses increased a negligible 1% over the same period last year.
