FIRST CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS QUARTERLY RECORD EARNINGS
Corydon, Indiana—October 30, 2013. First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP - news), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the “Bank”), today reported record net income of $1.4 million or $0.51 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $719,000 or $0.26 per diluted share for the same period in 2012.
The increase in net income is primarily due to increases in net interest income after provision for loan losses and noninterest income and a decrease in noninterest expense. Earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 were negatively impacted by the Bank’s voluntary early retirement program which resulted in a pre-tax charge to earnings of $693,000. Had that nonrecurring expense not occurred, the Company would have recognized net income of $1.1 million or $0.41 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $344,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Interest income decreased $73,000 when comparing the two periods as the average tax-equivalent yield of interest-earning assets decreased from 4.59% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 to 4.50% for the same period in 2013. Interest expense decreased $167,000 as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.67% to 0.48% when comparing the same two periods. As a result, the interest-rate spread increased from 3.92% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 to 4.02% for the same period in 2013. The provision for loan losses decreased from $350,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 to $100,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 primarily due to a decrease in net charge-offs from $191,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 to $32,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.
Noninterest income increased $85,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012. Service charges on deposit accounts and commission income increased by $67,000 and $39,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods.
Noninterest expenses decreased $713,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Compensation and benefits expense decreased $714,000 when comparing the two periods primarily due to the absence in 2013 of the $693,000 pre-tax charge related to the aforementioned voluntary early retirement program which took effect on September 30, 2012. Occupancy and equipment expenses also decreased by $40,000 for 2013 when comparing the two periods, while data processing expenses increased by $37,000 primarily due to an increase in ATM processing.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $3.8 million or $1.38 per diluted share compared to net income of $2.7 million or $0.96 per diluted share for the same period in 2012. Excluding the aforementioned charge to earnings for the voluntary early retirement program, the Company would have reported net income of $3.1 million or $1.11 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $832,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Interest income decreased $340,000 when comparing the two periods, due to a decrease in the average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets from 4.65% for 2012 to 4.46% for 2013. This was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets from $416.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $425.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Interest expense decreased $622,000 as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 0.75% to 0.50% when comparing the same two periods while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $341.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $345.2 million for the same period in 2013. The provision for loan losses decreased from $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $575,000 for the same period in 2013 as net charge offs decreased from $716,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $408,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Noninterest income increased $260,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to increases in commission income and service charges on deposit accounts of $154,000 and $140,000, respectively.
Noninterest expenses decreased $778,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012, primarily due to a decrease in compensation and benefit expenses of $939,000 due to the absence of the pre-tax charge incurred in 2012 attributable to the voluntary early retirement program mentioned previously. This was partially offset by increases in data processing expenses and professional fees of $91,000 and $72,000, respectively.
Total assets as of September 30, 2013 were $447.7 million compared to $459.1 million at December 31, 2012. Net loans receivable increased $8.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, while securities available for sale and cash and cash equivalents decreased $10.7 million and $6.4 million, respectively. Deposits and borrowed funds, consisting of retail repurchase agreements and Federal Home Loan Bank advances, decreased $7.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Nonperforming assets (consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due, troubled debt restructurings on accrual status, and foreclosed real estate) totaled $7.0 million and $8.4 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
At September 30, 2013, the Bank was considered well-capitalized under applicable federal regulatory capital guidelines.
