Fairlawn, Ohio — February 15, 2008 — Central Federal Corporation (Nasdaq: CFBK) announced record net income for the 4th quarter of 2007 of $297,000, or $.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $87,000, or $.02 per diluted share, in the 4th quarter of 2006. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 totaled $17,000, or $.00 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $37,000, or $.01 per diluted share, for 2006.
1
The net loss for 2007 was primarily due to the $511,000, or $.11 per diluted share, after-tax cost of an arbitration loss and lease termination expense. The arbitration loss, which represented $423,000 of the $511,000, resulted from an unfavorable decision in an arbitration brought by the former divisional President of Reserve Mortgage Services, Inc. (Reserve). Reserve had been acquired by the Company in October 2004 and was later merged into CFBank. The lease termination expense, which represented $88,000 of the $511,000, resulted from the move of CFBank’s mortgage banking operations to the Fairlawn office and negotiation of a settlement of the remaining future lease obligations at the former Reserve facility, which was owned by a company wholly owned by the former Reserve divisional President.
During 2007, CFBank continued successfully to execute its strategic plan focused on systematic growth. The result was an increase in total assets of $43.6 million, or 18.5%, during 2007 and included $47.5 million, or 37.6%, growth in commercial, commercial real estate and multi-family loans.
Mark S. Allio, Chairman, President and CEO stated, “Since the spring of 2005, CFBank has been executing a growth strategy which was crucial in our transition from a residentially focused savings and loan to a community bank which has added business banking, commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending to our savings and loan foundation. As of December 2007, we have an adequate earning asset base to produce a return which has stabilized capital and has provided us a platform to implement the next stage of profitable incremental growth while managing credit risk as well as non-interest expenses.
“Implementing a growth strategy during a period of an inverted yield curve is extremely difficult since the return on the incremental growth will not be accretive in the short term. We needed to grow the balance sheet and net interest income regardless of the slope of the yield curve. During the inverted yield curve period, we have maintained a shorter duration of our liabilities than our earning assets. As the yield curve returns to a positive slope, we will benefit from the liability repricing and a resultant increase in our net interest margin. We are also pleased with the performance and credit quality of our loan portfolio.
“The communities and customers we serve have welcomed our brand promise as a partner in their banking needs and not just a provider of commodity financial products. With community and customer support and referrals, our asset base has doubled. Both business and retail customers appreciate our broad experience, knowledgeable people, access to decision-makers, customized solutions and execution with a sense of urgency. We look forward to their continued support, which will result in growth of CFBank and increased value to our shareholders.”
Net interest income
The flat/inverted yield curve challenged growth in net interest income during 2007. Although loan growth positively affected gross interest income, which increased 28.3% in 2007, interest expense increased 42.2%, resulting in a 14.2% increase in net interest income in 2007 compared to 2006. Net interest margin declined from 3.39% for the year ended December 31, 2006 to 3.19% for 2007.
Gross interest income increased 21.4% in the 4th quarter of 2007 compared to the prior year quarter, and interest expense increased 23.1% during the same time frame, resulting in a 19.3% increase in net interest income for the 4th quarter of 2007 compared to the prior year quarter. Net interest margin increased from 3.20% in the 4th quarter of 2006 to 3.24% in the 4th quarter of 2007.
2
Reductions in the Federal Funds rate and an increase in the slope of the yield curve positively impacted net interest margin in the 4th quarter of 2007; however, management of the net interest margin in the current interest rate and competitive environment is a challenge, and continued pressure on margins is expected. CFBank continues to manage the net interest margin by matching asset and liability pricing closely to its business model.
Noninterest income
Noninterest income totaled $149,000 and $728,000 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2007, respectively, compared to $212,000 and $823,000 in the prior year periods. The decline in noninterest income in the current year was primarily due to lower mortgage loan production in 2007, which resulted in lower net gains on sales of loans.
Provision for loan losses
CFBank continues to provide reserves for loan losses in relation to its loan growth, portfolio composition, current economic conditions and ascertainable credit risk information available. Since commercial lending began in 2003, the Bank has provided a total of $2.8 million to build the allowance for loan losses as the commercial lending portfolio has grown. To date the Bank has not incurred a loss on a commercial loan asset. The provision totaled $104,000 and $539,000 in the three months and year ended December 31, 2007 compared to $118,000 and $820,000 for the same periods in 2006.
In 2007, the Bank provided a larger loan loss provision on loans with less than satisfactory risk ratings based on review of current facts and judgment regarding changes in the risk characterization of these loans. As the portfolio has become more seasoned, significant credit problems have not appeared in loans with satisfactory risk ratings, which resulted in lower allocations to the allowance on these loans and a lower provision for loan losses in 2007.
CFBank continued to experience low levels of nonperforming loans and net loan charge-offs. Nonperforming loans totaled $391,000, or 0.17% of total loans, at December 31, 2007 compared to $297,000, or 0.16% of total loans, at December 31, 2006. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the Bank had net charge-offs totaling $3,000, or 0.01% on an annualized basis of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $41,000, or 0.09% on an annualized basis of average loans, during the prior year quarter. Net recoveries totaled $36,000, or 0.02% of average loans, in 2007 compared to net charge-offs of $206,000, or 0.13%, in 2006.
The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.15% at December 31, 2007 and 1.13% at December 31, 2006.
Management continues to diligently monitor credit quality in the existing portfolio and analyzes potential loan opportunities carefully in order to manage credit risk while implementing our growth strategy. We believe the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2007; however, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on factors such as changes in client business performance, economic conditions, and sudden changes in real estate values.
Noninterest expense
Noninterest expense totaled $1.7 million and $8.0 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2007. Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 included the $774,000 pre-tax arbitration loss and lease termination expenses described previously. Salaries and employee benefits expense included a $641,000 arbitration loss paid to the former divisional President of Reserve. Occupancy and equipment expense included a $100,000 lease termination expense, and other expense included $33,000 lease termination expense.
3
Noninterest expense in the 4th quarter of 2007 totaled $1,721,000 and decreased $14,000, or 0.8%, compared to $1,735,000 in the prior year quarter. Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2007, not including the arbitration loss and lease termination expense, totaled $7.2 million and increased $374,000, or 5.5%, from the prior year. The increase in noninterest expense in the current year was due to costs associated with additional operational resources necessary to further implement our strategic growth plan. Management leveraged growth during calendar year 2006 and was able to grow assets by 36.4%, or $63.0 million, with no increase in noninterest expense during that year. Additional expenses were incurred in the current year for the opening of CFBank’s office in Worthington, Ohio in the summer of 2007, replacing the office at Easton Town Center in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio franchise tax increased $122,000 in 2007 due to additional capital from the Company’s 2006 stock offering. Noninterest expenses in the current year were also incurred for marketing, advertising and additional human resources necessary to support growth.
Balance sheet activity
Assets totaled $279.6 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $43.6 million, or 18.5%, from $236.0 million at December 31, 2006. The growth was primarily due to growth in the loan portfolio and was funded with deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances.
Net loans totaled $230.5 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $45.8 million, or 24.8%, from $184.7 million at December 31, 2006. Commercial, commercial real estate and multi-family loans totaled $173.9 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $47.5 million, or 37.6%, from $126.4 million at December 31, 2006. Mortgage loans totaled $31.0 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $865,000 from $30.1 million at December 31, 2006. Most of CFBank’s mortgage loan production was originated for sale. Consumer loans decreased $2.1 million and totaled $28.2 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $30.3 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to repayments on home equity lines of credit and auto loans.
Deposits totaled $194.3 million at December 31, 2007 and increased $26.7 million, or 15.9%, from $167.6 million at December 31, 2006. Certificate of deposit accounts increased $16.7 million and included a $16.2 million increase in brokered certificate of deposit accounts. Additionally, money market accounts increased $6.4 million, interest bearing checking accounts increased $4.2 million and noninterest bearing deposits increased $1.0 million. Traditional savings account balances decreased by $1.6 million.
FHLB advances totaled $49.5 million at December 31, 2007 and increased $17.0 million, or 52.3%, compared to $32.5 million at December 31, 2006. A $2.2 million economic development advance from the FHLB was drawn during the March 2007 quarter to fund construction of CFBank’s new Columbus regional office in Worthington, which opened in June 2007. The remaining increase in FHLB advances was used to fund loan growth.
Shareholders’ equity totaled $27.4 million at December 31, 2007 and decreased $1.7 million, or 5.8%, compared to $29.1 million at December 31, 2006 as a result of the net loss for the year, an $830,000 treasury stock repurchase and $1.2 million in dividends to shareholders.
