FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
OCEANFIRST FINANCIAL CORP.
ANNOUNCES RECORD NET INCOME,
14.3% ANNUAL EARNINGS PER SHARE
GROWTH
TOMS RIVER, NEW JERSEY, January 20, 2011…OceanFirst Financial Corp. (NASDAQ:“OCFC”), the holding company for OceanFirst Bank (the “Bank”), today announced a record $20.4 million of net income for the year 2010. Income available to common stockholders increased to $5.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $5.2 million for the prior linked quarter, and $1.9 million for the corresponding prior year period. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was $0.32, an increase of $0.03 from the prior linked quarter. For the year, diluted earnings per share increased 14.3%, to $1.12, from $0.98 in 2009. Additional highlights for the quarter and year just concluded:
| | • | | Earnings per share has grown in each of the last four quarters. Return on average stockholders’ equity was 11.54% for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. |
| | • | | Driven by 10.9% year over year balance sheet growth, total revenue for 2010 (i.e., net interest income and total other income) also was a record $92.4 million. |
| | • | | Year-end deposits grew 22.0% to $1,664.0 million with core deposits (i.e., all deposits except time deposits) comprising yet another record 82.9% of total deposits. |
The Company also announced that the Board of Directors declared its fifty-sixth consecutive quarterly cash dividend on common stock. The dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was declared in the amount of $0.12 per share to be paid on February 11, 2011 to shareholders of record on January 31, 2011.
Chairman and CEO John R. Garbarino observed “Our record setting bottom line was driven by strong core deposit growth and healthy margins throughout the year. Diligently managing our capital in recent periods with these record earnings, prudent dividend payouts and strong, double digit returns on equity has significantly enhanced the value proposition for our shareholders.”
Results of Operations
Net income available to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $5.8 million or $0.32 per diluted share, as compared to net income available to common stockholders of $1.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net income available to common stockholders was $20.4 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, as compared to net income available to common stockholders of $12.5 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. For both the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, diluted earnings per share reflects the higher number of average diluted shares outstanding from the issuance of additional common shares in November 2009. For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 diluted earnings per share includes $922,000, or $0.05 per share, relating to a reduction in the state tax valuation allowance.
Net interest income for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 increased to $18.9 million and $77.1 million, respectively, as compared to $16.9 million and $65.5 million, respectively, in the same prior year periods, reflecting greater interest-earning assets and, for the year ended December 31, 2010, a higher net interest margin. The net interest margin increased to 3.69% for the year ended December 31, 2010 from 3.63% in the same prior year period partly due to the low interest rate environment. For the quarter ended December 31, 2010 the net interest margin decreased to 3.52% as compared to 3.73% in the prior linked quarter and 3.76% in the same prior year period. The decrease in net interest margin from the prior linked quarter and prior year was due to the investment of strong deposit flows into interest-earning deposits and investment securities at a modest net interest spread. Additionally, high loan refinance volume caused yields on loans and mortgage-backed securities to reset downward. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 4.62% and 4.86%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 5.19% and 5.31%, respectively, in the same prior year periods. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.23% and 1.30%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 1.63% and 1.89%, respectively, in the same prior year periods. Average interest-earning assets increased by $341.1 million and $283.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the same prior year periods. The increase in average interest-earning assets was primarily due to the increase in average mortgage-backed securities, which increased $221.3 million, or 198.8%, and $244.6 million, or 266.9%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the same prior year periods. The increase was also due, to a lesser extent, to an
increase in average investment securities, which increased $34.7 million and $9.7 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the same prior year periods.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the provision for loan losses decreased to $2.0 million as compared to $2.2 million for the corresponding prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the provision for loan losses increased to $8.0 million, as compared to $5.7 million for the corresponding prior year period. The increased provision for the year ended December 31, 2010 is primarily due to higher levels of non-performing loans and partially due to higher loan balances.
Other income increased to $4.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $3.7 million in the same prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2010, other income decreased to $15.3 million as compared to $15.6 million in the same prior year period. Loan servicing income (loss) increased to income of $292,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from a loss of $18,000 in the same prior year period due to an impairment to the loan servicing asset of $263,000 recognized in the first quarter of 2009. Fees and service charges increased to $3.1 million and $11.2 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $2.7 million and $10.5 million for the corresponding prior year periods. The increase was due to higher fees from merchant services, commercial checking accounts and trust services. Additionally, loan prepayment income increased by $209,000 and $104,000 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the same prior year periods. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the increase in fees and service charges was partly offset by a reduction in private mortgage insurance fee income of $146,000 related to several rescission claims. The net gain on sales of loans increased to $1.4 million for the quarter
ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $772,000 for the corresponding prior year period due to an increase in the volume of loans sold and a strong gain on sale margin. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the net gain on the sale of loans sold decreased to $3.7 million, as compared to $3.9 million for the corresponding prior year period due to a decline in the volume of loans sold. The net loss from other real estate operations was $292,000 and $701,000, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to losses of $74,000 and $2,000, respectively, in the same prior year periods due to current period write-downs in the value of properties previously acquired. Other income decreased $371,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the same prior year period due to the prior year recovery of $367,000 on borrower escrow funds at Columbia Home Loans, LLC (“Columbia”), the Company’s mortgage banking subsidiary, which was shuttered in the fourth quarter of 2007.
Operating expenses increased to $13.9 million, or 5.8%, and $53.6 million, or 6.1%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $13.2 million and $50.5 million, respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods. These increases were primarily due to compensation and employee benefits costs, which increased due to higher incentive compensation, salary and stock plan expense. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the increase was also due to the reduction in mortgage loan closings from prior year levels. Fewer loan closings in the current year decreased deferred loan expense which is reflected as an increase to compensation expense. Occupancy expense decreased by $490,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the corresponding prior year period due to a $556,000 charge in the second quarter of 2009 relating to the termination of all remaining lease obligations of Columbia. Federal deposit insurance expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 decreased by $394,000 from the corresponding prior year period primarily due to a special
assessment of $869,000 in the second quarter of 2009, partly offset by additional insurance on higher deposit balances. Federal deposit insurance increased by $136,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the same prior year quarter due to higher deposit balances. Merger related expenses for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $703,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, which related to the Company’s announced, but subsequently terminated, merger with Central Jersey Bancorp. General and administrative expense increased for the year ended December 31, 2010, over the corresponding prior year period partly due to higher loan related expenses.
The provision for income taxes was $1.7 million and $10.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $1.7 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for the same prior year periods. The effective tax rate decreased to 22.7% and 33.8%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 32.4% and 36.9%, respectively, in the same prior year periods. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due to the fourth quarter 2010 reduction in the state tax valuation allowance of $922,000.
Dividends on preferred stock and warrant accretion totaled $1.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to no amounts in the current year periods. The preferred stock was redeemed on December 30, 2009.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased by $221.3 million, or 10.9%, to $2,251.3 million at December 31, 2010, from $2,030.0 million at December 31, 2009. Loans receivable, net increased by $31.5 million, or 1.9%, to $1,660.8 million at December 31, 2010, from $1,629.3 million at December 31, 2009, primarily due to increased commercial and commercial real estate lending. Investment
securities available for sale increased by 146.6%, to $91.9 million at December 31, 2010, as compared to $37.3 million at December 31, 2009, due to purchases of government agency and municipal securities as the Company invested the funds received from strong deposit flows. Mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased by 59.7%, to $341.2 million at December 31, 2010 as compared to $213.6 million at December 31, 2009, due to purchases of $193.0 million in mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations issued by U.S. government sponsored enterprises.
The increase in assets was funded by increased deposits, which grew by 22.0% to $1,664.0 million at December 31, 2010 from $1,364.2 million at December 31, 2009. The growth was concentrated in core deposits, which increased $326.8 million. Time deposits decreased $27.0 million as the Bank continued to moderate its pricing for this product. Also, as a result of the increase in deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased to $265.0 million at December 31, 2010 from $333.0 million at December 31, 2009. Stockholders’ equity increased 9.7%, to $201.3 million at December 31, 2010, as compared to $183.5 million at December 31, 2009 due to net income and a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive loss partly offset by the cash dividend on common stock.
Asset Quality
The Company’s non-performing loans totaled $37.5 million at December 31, 2010, an increase from $28.3 million at December 31, 2009, with the largest increase of $7.4 million attributable to one-to-four family mortgage loans. The overall increase is reflective of the weak economic environment. Non-performing loans at December 31, 2010 include $664,000 of loans repurchased due to early payment default that were written down to market value on the date of
repurchase and $2.2 million of loans previously held for sale that were also written down to market value. Net loan charge-offs decreased to $893,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $1.2 million for the corresponding prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net loan charge-offs increased to $3.0 million, as compared to $2.6 million for the corresponding prior year period. For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 net charge-offs included $11,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, of loans originated by Columbia.
The reserve for repurchased loans, which is included in other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition, was $809,000 at December 31, 2010, as compared to $819,000 at December 31, 2009. There was no provision for repurchased loans and one charge-off of $10,000 during the year ended December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, there was one outstanding loan repurchase request on a loan with a total principal balance of $122,000 which the Company is contesting.
