For Immediate Release
PEOPLES BANCORP ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS RESULTS
Peoples Bancorp of North Carolina, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEBK), the parent company of Peoples Bank, reported net earnings of $1.4 million, or $0.25 basic and diluted net earnings per share, before adjustment for preferred stock dividends and accretion, for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $2.2 million or $0.39 basic and diluted net earnings per share, for the same period one year ago. After adjusting for $348,000 in dividends and accretion on preferred stock, net earnings available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.0 million, or $0.18 basic and diluted net earnings per common share. Net earnings from recurring operations for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $526,000, or $0.09 basic and diluted net earnings per share, before adjustment for preferred stock dividends and accretion, as compared to second quarter 2008 net earnings from recurring operations of $2.2 million, or $0.39 basic net earnings per share and $0.38 diluted net earnings per share. Tony W. Wolfe, President and Chief Executive Officer, attributed the decrease in second quarter earnings to an increase in provision for loan losses, a decrease in net interest income and an increase in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by an increase in non-interest income. Mr. Wolfe noted that the decline in earnings for the second quarter reflects the continuing impact of the current financial crisis in the increase in non-performing assets and net charge-offs when compared to the same quarter in 2008. Mr. Wolfe stated that the recessionary environment continues to have an adverse impact on real estate values, new home sales and construction, necessitating an increase in the provision for loan losses as the risk of loss in the loan portfolio increases.
Year-to-date net earnings as of June 30, 2009 was $2.0 million, or $0.36 basic and diluted net earnings per share, before adjustment for preferred stock dividends and accretion, as compared to $4.2 million, or $0.76 basic net earnings per share and $0.75 diluted net earnings per share, for the same period one year ago. After adjusting for $550,000 in dividends and accretion on preferred stock, net earnings available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.4 million, or $0.26 basic and diluted net earnings per common share. Net earnings from recurring operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.4 million, or $0.26 basic and diluted net earnings per share, before adjustment for preferred stock dividends and accretion, as compared to net earnings from recurring operations of $4.2 million, or $0.75 basic net earnings per share and $0.74 diluted net earnings per share, for the same period one year ago. The decrease in year-to-date earnings is primarily attributable to an increase in provision for loan losses, a decrease in net interest income and an increase in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by an increase in non-interest income as discussed below.
Shareholders’ equity increased to $98.5 million, or 9.69% of total assets, at June 30, 2009 as compared to $72.2 million, or 7.69% of total assets, at June 30, 2008, primarily due to the issuance on December 23, 2008 of $24.4 million in Series A preferred stock and a warrant for shares of common stock with a value of $704,000 associated with the Company’s participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”) under the Troubled Asset Relief Program. The CPP, created by the U.S. Treasury, is a voluntary program in which selected, healthy financial institutions are encouraged to participate. Approved use of the funds includes, among other things, providing credit to qualified borrowers, either as companies or

individuals. Such participation is intended to support the economic development of the community and thereby restore the health of the local and national economy.
Net interest income was $8.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2009 compared to $8.4 million for the same period one year ago. This decease in interest income is primarily due to a 175 basis point reduction in the Bank’s prime commercial lending rate from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009, which was partially offset by a decrease in the cost of funds and an increase in interest earning assets. Net income from derivative instruments was $877,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $899,000 for the same period in 2008. Net interest income after the provision for loan losses decreased 23% to $5.9 million during the second quarter of 2009, compared to $7.7 million for the same period one year ago. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $2.3 million as compared to $681,000 for the same period one year ago, primarily attributable to a $14.1 million increase in non-performing assets from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009, a $616,000 increase in net charge-offs during second quarter 2009 compared to second quarter 2008 and growth in the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs in second quarter 2009 included $322,000 on construction and acquisition and development loans, $403,000 on mortgage loans and $300,000 on non-real estate loans, which included $110,000 on commercial loans.
Recurring non-interest income increased 3% to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $2.8 million for the same period one year ago. The increase in recurring non-interest income is primarily due to a $129,000 increase in mortgage banking income resulting from increased mortgage loan demand. Net non-recurring gains of $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 included a $1.8 million gain on sale of securities, which was partially offset by the write-down of two investments totaling $397,000. Management determined the market value of these investments had decreased significantly and were not temporary impairments, therefore write-downs were appropriate during the second quarter of 2009. This $1.4 million net gain on the sale and write-down of securities for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was partially offset by a $24,000 loss on the disposition of assets. Net non-recurring gains of $22,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were due to gains on the disposition of assets.
Non-interest expense increased 12% to $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $7.1 million for the same period last year. The increase in non-interest expense included: (1) an increase of $225,000 or 6% in salaries and benefits expense primarily due to a $103,000 decrease in the allocation of the costs to originate loans associated with FAS 91 in second quarter 2009 compared to the same period last year due to lower loan volume in 2009, (2) an increase of $97,000 or 8% in occupancy expense due to an increase in furniture and equipment expense, and (3) an increase of $520,000 or 25% in non-interest expenses other than salary, benefits and occupancy expenses. The increase in non-interest expenses other than salary, benefits and occupancy expenses is primarily attributable to an increase of $192,000 in debit card expense and an increase of $383,000 in FDIC insurance expense due to an increase in 2009 FDIC insurance assessment rates and a $196,000 accrual for the FDIC insurance special assessment booked in second quarter 2009.
Year-to-date net interest income as of June 30, 2009 decreased 1% to $16.1 million compared to $16.2 million for the same period one year ago. This decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in the Bank’s prime commercial lending rate. The decrease in loan interest income resulting from a decline in prime rate was partially offset by an increase in income from derivative instruments. Net income from derivative instruments was $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2008. Net interest income after the provision for loan losses decreased 21% to $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $15.2 million for the same period one year ago. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $4.0 million as compared to $1.1 million for the same period one year ago, primarily attributable to an increase in non-performing assets, a $1.2 million increase in net charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year and growth in the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs during the six months
PEOPLES BANCORP ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS RESULTS – PAGE THREE
ended June 30, 2009 included $618,000 on construction and acquisition and development loans, $485,000 on mortgage loans and $650,000 on non-real estate loans, which included $321,000 on commercial loans.
Recurring non-interest income increased 3% to $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $5.4 million for the same period one year ago. The increase in recurring non-interest income is primarily due to a $143,000 increase in mortgage banking income resulting from increased mortgage loan demand. Net non-recurring gains of $912,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included a $1.8 million gain on sale of securities, which was partially offset by write-downs of two securities totaling $645,000. This $1.2 million net gain on the sale and write-down of securities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was partially offset by a $239,000 loss on the disposition of assets. Net non-recurring gains of $41,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were due to gains on the disposition of assets.
Non-interest expense increased 9% to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $14.0 million for the same period last year. The increase in non-interest expense included: (1) an increase of $90,000 or 1% in salaries and benefits expense due to normal salary increases, (2) an increase of $209,000 or 9% in occupancy expense due to an increase in furniture and equipment expense, and (3) a net increase of $955,000 or 23% in non-interest expenses other than salary, benefits and occupancy expenses. The increase in non-interest expenses other than salary, benefits and occupancy expenses is primarily attributable to an increase of $337,000 in debit card expense and an increase of $787,000 in FDIC insurance expense due an increase in 2009 FDIC insurance assessment rates combined with a $453,000 FDIC insurance special assessment payable September 30, 2009 that was accrued as of June 30, 2009.
Total assets as of June 30, 2009 amounted to $1.0 billion, an increase of 8% compared to total assets of $938.5 million at June 30, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in investment securities available for sale combined with an increase in loans. Available for sale securities increased 53% to $180.5 million as of June 30, 2009 compared to $118.0 million as of June 30, 2008 primarily due to $50.9 million in securities purchased in a leverage transaction used to offset to cost of the Company’s CPP dividend. Loans increased 3% to $778.2 million as of June 30, 2009 compared to $756.2 million as of June 30, 2008.
Non-performing assets increased 62% to $25.4 million or 2.50% of total assets at June 30, 2009, compared to $15.5 million or 1.54% of total assets at March 31, 2009 primarily due to a $9.5 million increase in non-performing loans combined with a $261,000 increase in Other Real Estate Owned. Non-performing assets amounted to $11.3 million or 1.20% of total assets at June 30, 2008. Non-performing loans include $5.0 million in construction and acquisition and development loans, $16.9 million in commercial and residential mortgage loans and $1.6 million in other loans at June 30, 2009 as compared to $2.5 million in construction and acquisition and development loans, $10.0 million in commercial and residential mortgage loans and $1.2 million in other loans as of March 31, 2009. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2009 amounted to $13.3 million or 1.71% of total loans compared to $9.6 million or 1.27% of total loans at June 30, 2008.
Deposits amounted to $767.4 million as of June 30, 2009, representing an increase of 6% over deposits of $722.6 million at June 30, 2008. Core deposits, which include non-interest bearing demand deposits, NOW, MMDA, savings and non-brokered certificates of deposits of denominations less than $100,000, increased $29.7 million to $528.8 million at June 30, 2009 as compared to $499.1 million at June 30, 2008. Certificates of deposit in amounts greater than $100,000 or more totaled $236.9 million at June 30, 2009 as compared to $223.5 million at June 30, 2008.
Securities sold under agreement to repurchase increased $9.1 million to $36.8 million at June 30, 2009 as compared to $27.6 million at June 30, 2008 as concerted efforts to promote cash management services have increased customer usage of this product. Short-term Federal Reserve Bank borrowings amounted to $7.5 million as of June 30, 2009.
