FOR RELEASE: November 14, 2012
SUBJECT: OHIO LEGACY CORP REPORTS THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
NORTH CANTON, OHIO—Ohio Legacy Corp (the “Company”), parent company of Premier Bank & Trust (the “Bank”), reported net income of $137,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a loss of $280,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported a loss of $45,000 compared to a loss of $988,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
Rick L. Hull, President & CEO, stated, “Our third quarter results mark a continuation of our positive trajectory, and we are pleased with our momentum. Lending and fee generation have sustained growth throughout the year, and we are excited about our market position in both wealth management services and commercial lending. Portfolio loan balances increased to $137.5 million at September 30, 2012 from $110.8 million at year-end 2011, an increase of 24.1%. Loans held for sale increased to $10.4 million at September 30, 2012 from $896,000 at year-end 2011. Total deposits increased 12.7%, or $13.2 million, to $117.2 million at September 30, 2012 compared to $104.0 million at year-end 2011.
Asset management revenue increased to $680,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $541,000 for the same period in 2011. Assets under management at September 30, 2012 totaled $118 million with an additional $58 million in assets serviced through its brokerage division. A full service branch office in St. Clairsville, Ohio, opened in February 2012 expanding services previously offered at the St. Clairsville Wealth Office.
Mr. Hull said, “Our net interest margin increased to 3.88% for the third quarter of 2012 compared to 2.95% for the September 2011 quarter immediately preceding the sale. Although service charges and other deposit-related fees were down about $250,000 for the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 as a result of the deposit sale, overhead expense savings more than covered this decline. Total noninterest expenses were down $1,170,000 for the nine months of 2012 with a sizable amount of these savings related to the Wooster banking offices sold during the fourth quarter of 2011.”
Ohio Legacy Corp is a bank holding company with total assets of $172 million with Premier Bank & Trust offices in North Canton and St. Clairsville, Ohio. Ohio Legacy Corp stock trades on the OTC Markets (OTCMarkets.com) under the symbol OLCB.
