FIRST CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS QUARTERLY EARNINGS
Corydon, Indiana—July 22, 2011. First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP - news), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $941,000 or $0.34 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to $988,000 or $0.35 per diluted share for the same period in 2010.
The decrease in earnings is primarily due to a decrease in noninterest income partially offset by a decrease in noninterest expense.
Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $11,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Interest income decreased $433,000 when comparing the two periods as the average tax-equivalent yield of interest-earning assets decreased from 5.37% during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 to 5.05% for the same period in 2011 and the average balance of interest-earning assets decreased from $425.8 million in 2010 to $419.3 million in 2011. Interest expense decreased $427,000 as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.53% to 1.13% when comparing the same two periods while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from $374.7 million in 2010 to $354.8 million in 2011, primarily due to decreases in the average balance of time accounts and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. As a result, the interest-rate spread increased from 3.84% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 to 3.92% for the same period in 2011. The provision for loan losses increased from $420,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 to $425,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. The Bank continued to provide reserves during the quarter to offset current period charge-offs and to provide for inherent loss exposure due to weakened general economic conditions such as depreciating collateral values, job losses and continued pressures on household budgets in the Bank’s market area.
Noninterest income decreased $48,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. Gains on the sales of mortgage loans decreased $62,000 when comparing the two periods and the Bank recognized a loss of $19,000 on the sale of available for sale securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Noninterest expenses decreased $24,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. Other operating expenses decreased $149,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. This was partially offset by an increase in compensation and benefits of $137,000 when comparing the same two periods. The decrease in other operating expenses was primarily due to reductions in the costs associated with the maintenance and sale of foreclosed properties and a decrease in FDIC deposit insurance premiums. The increase in compensation and benefits is primarily due to normal salary increases and an increase in the cost of health insurance.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $1.8 million or $0.66 per diluted share compared to net income of $2.0 million or $0.71 per diluted share for the same period in 2010. During the six months ended June 20, 2010, the Company received a pre-tax refund of disputed ATM charges of $278,000 which were paid in 2009. If this refund, net of tax, is excluded from earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2010, net income for the period would have been $1.8 million ($0.65 per share diluted).
Net interest income after provision for loan loss increased $26,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Interest income decreased $813,000 when comparing the two periods, due to a decrease in the average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets from 5.31% for 2010 to 5.08% for 2011. Interest expense decreased $884,000 as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.57% to 1.17% when comparing the same two periods. The provision for loan losses increased from $880,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $925,000 for the same period in 2011.
Noninterest income increased $52,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to a $93,000 increase in service charges on deposits.
Noninterest expenses increased $338,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010, primarily due to an increase in data processing expenses of $337,000 primarily due to the receipt of the previously mentioned $278,000 refund of disputed ATM charges in the first quarter of 2010.
Total assets as of June 30, 2011 were $445.0 million compared to $452.4 million at December 31, 2010. Securities available for sale increased $10.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, while cash and cash equivalents and net loans receivable decreased $7.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively. Deposits decreased $8.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Nonperforming assets (consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due and foreclosed real estate) totaled $8.8 million and $8.5 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
