WASHINGTON, April 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Capital Bank of Washington (NCB) reported net income of $676,000, or $2.37 per common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to net income of $629,000 or $2.18 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. This 7.5% increase in net income is due primarily to continued growth in the Bank's loan portfolio, funded primarily with strong core deposits. Non-performing loans to total loans decreased from 0.19% to 0.09% over the last year.
Total assets increased year-over-year to $480,708,000 at March 31, 2019 compared to $432,403,000 at March 31, 2018. Total loans of $340,745,000 at March 31, 2019 have increased from $279,364,000 the year before as the Bank continued to emphasize commercial, commercial real estate and construction lending programs. Total deposits also increased to $406,665,000 at March 31, 2019 compared to $380,227,000 the year before. The Bank's net interest margin for the quarter increased to 3.62% at March 31, 2019 up from 3.42% a year ago because of continued loan growth and a change in the mix of earning assets toward higher yielding commercial loans.
Total shareholders' equity increased to $45,412,000 at March 31, 2019 from $42,733,000 a year ago. The increase resulted from retained earnings for the past twelve months along with an increase in the market value of the Bank's investment portfolio due to recent declines in longer-term interest rates. For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the return on average assets and return on average equity was 0.57% and 6.09%, respectively.
Richard B. (Randy) Anderson, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer said, "The first quarter of 2019 was characterized by balanced growth in both loans and deposits and a more favorable economic climate than originally forecast. This growth translated into improved earnings and we believe we are off to a good start in meeting our goals and objectives for the year."
