The National Capital Bank of Washington Reports Second Quarter Results

WASHINGTON, July 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Capital Bank of Washington (NCB) reported net income of $646,000, or $2.26 per common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net income of $533,000 or $1.84 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.  For the six months ended June 30, 2019, NCB reported net income of $1,322,000, or $4.64 per share, compared to $1,160,000, or $4.01 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This 14.0% increase in year-to-date net income is due primarily to continued growth in the Bank's loan portfolio and an improved asset mix.  Credit quality continued to be strong as non-performing loans to total loans decreased from 0.15% to 0.08% over the last year.

Total assets increased to $485,477,000 at June 30, 2019 compared to $466,589,000 at December 31, 2018 and $436,806,000 at June 30, 2018.  Total loans of $351,716,000 at June 30, 2019 increased $20.9 million or 6.3% year-to-date and were up over $54 million from $297,505,000 the year before as the Bank continued to expand its commercial and commercial real estate lending activities.  Total deposits of $408,355,000 at June 30, 2019 were up 3.1% year-to-date and were up 6.6% compared to $383,125,000 the year before.  The Bank's net interest margin continued to improve to 3.64% at June 30, 2018 up from 3.55% at year-end 2018 and 3.54% a year ago because of growth and a change in the mix of the loan portfolio while maintaining a relatively low cost of deposits in an increasingly competitive rate environment. 

Total shareholders' equity increased to $47,361,000 at June 30, 2019 from $43,738,000 at year-end 2018 and $41,857,000 a year ago.  Both the year-to-date increase and the year-over-year increase resulted from retained earnings along with an increase in the market value of the Bank's investment portfolio due to declines in longer-term interest rates. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 the return on average assets and return on average equity was 0.55% and 5.85%, respectively. 

Richard B. (Randy) Anderson, Jr. President and Chief Executive Officer said, "Second quarter results reflect continued progress in executing our strategic plan of improved profitability, steady balance sheet growth and enhanced product and service offerings through better technology and an emphasis on delivering a quality banking experience." Anderson continued, "In June, we were excited to partner with the Fox Hill senior living community to establish a restricted-access branch on their Bethesda, Maryland campus. We have been well received by Fox Hill's owners and residents and anticipate the office will be an asset in achieving deposit growth goals."
