ALASKA PACIFIC BANCSHARES, INC. REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER RESULTS FOR 2009
JUNEAU, Alaska, November 13, 2009 -- Alaska Pacific Bancshares, Inc. (OTCBB: AKPB) (“Company”), the parent company of Alaska Pacific Bank (“Bank”), today announced its third quarter results for the period ended September 30, 2009. Net loss not including preferred stock dividend and discount accretion for the third quarter of 2009 was $465,000. After preferred stock dividend and discount accretion of $75,000, net loss available to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2009 was $540,000, or $(0.83) per diluted share. This compares to a net loss for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008 of $672,000, or $(1.03) per diluted share. The losses in the quarters ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were primarily attributable to a provision for loan losses of $903,000 and $1.4 million respectively.
“The loss for third quarter follows profitable first and second quarters, which were more in line with the day to day operations of the Bank,” stated Craig E. Dahl, President & CEO. “The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2009 reflects further write-downs associated with two of the out-of-market loans that have been identified and discussed in previous periods. We also had two loans to retail businesses in Juneau that had been classified for an extended period finally resulting in the closure of both businesses. Each of the out-of-market participation loans has been, and is being, addressed methodically by the group of participating banks which must work through the legal process of collection or foreclosure, if that is the ultimate solution. While we are optimistic that there may be recoveries from these loans in future periods, we need to recognize current market conditions and follow the prescribed ac counting treatment as information becomes available. We still have very low delinquencies in our core business market area of Southeast Alaska, and continue to be confident in the overall core business of the Bank.”
Mortgage banking income decreased $140,000 (63.4%) for the third quarter of 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and increased $35,000 (76.1%) from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The increase in mortgage banking income during the third quarter of 2009 compared to 2008 was associated with low interest rate refinancing. Other noninterest income for the third quarter of 2009 decreased $1,000 (0.3%) from June 30, 2009 and increased $43,000 (16.0%) from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The increase in other noninterest income over the comparable period in the prior year was primarily attributable to document preparation fee income and service charges on demand deposit accounts.
Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2009 decreased $12,000 (0.5%) from June 30, 2009 and increased $34,000 (1.5%) from the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The increase in expense in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008 is primarily related to an increase in FDIC assessments. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009 our FDIC assessment was $159,000 compared to $7,000 for the comparable period in 2008.

Our provision for loan losses increased $813,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and decreased $523,000 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2009 was $1.5 million, representing 0.9% of total loans outstanding and 19.8% of non-performing assets. Total non-accrual loans were $6.3 million at September 30, 2009 compared with $7.2 million at June 30, 2009 and $7.1 million at September 30, 2008. In addition, the Bank’s other real estate owned and repossessed assets were $1.3 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $69,000 at June 30, 2009 and $362,000 at September 30, 2008. There was a $2.3 million net loan chargeoff for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared to a $20,000 net loan recovery for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and $244,000 net loan chargeoff for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Interest income decreased $617,000 (20.1%) to $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008, reflecting a 7.5% decrease in average loans in addition to a declining yield on loans and other earning assets. The net interest margin on average earning assets for the third quarter of 2009 was 4.74% in 2009 compared with 4.81% in the third quarter of 2008.
Loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $161.8 million at September 30, 2009, a decrease of $5.9 million, or 3.5% from June 30, 2009, and a decrease of $12.6 million, or 7.2% from September 30, 2008. Deposits at September 30, 2009, were $152.4 million, a $360,000 (0.2%) decrease from June 30, 2009, and a $25 million (14.1%) decrease from September 30, 2008. The decrease in deposits as of the third quarter 2009 compared to the balance as of third quarter 2008 is primarily related to a decline in certificates of deposit (“CDs”) due to a decline in deposits from a public entity under a CD program for qualified Alaskan financial institutions. There were no CDs under this program at September 30, 2009 and $15 million at September 30, 2008.
