Westfield Financial, Inc. Reports Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2013 and Declares Quarterly Dividend
WESTFIELD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 24, 2013--Westfield Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) (NasdaqGS:WFD), the holding company for Westfield Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income of $1.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $974,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net income was $3.4 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $3.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the same period in 2012.
Selected financial highlights for the second quarter and year-to-date 2013 include:
- Total loans increased $10.3 million to $606.6 million for the second quarter 2013. This was primarily due to an increase in residential loans of $8.0 million, an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $2.3 million, and an increase in commercial real estate loans of $267,000.
- The net interest margin for year-to-date June 30, 2013 of 2.57% was equal to the first six months of 2012. For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the net interest margin decreased 4 bp to 2.55% as compared to 2.59% for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.
- Net interest and dividend income showed a slight increase of $163,000 for the year-to-date June 30, 2013 and a slight decrease of $33,000 to $7.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, both relative to comparable periods in 2012.
- The Company repurchased 1,157,582 shares of its common stock, which equates to 5.3% of the outstanding shares as of March 31, 2013, pursuant to its stock repurchase program for a total of $8.8 million. The shares were repurchased at an average price of $7.64 per share.
- A portion of the investment securities portfolio was reclassified from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity. At June 30, 2013 securities classified as held-to-maturity totaled $174.0 million or 29.4% of debt securities and mortgage-backed securities.
- The Bank prepaid repurchase agreements in the amount of $19.8 million and incurred a prepayment expense of $1.4 million for the second quarter 2013. The repurchase agreements had a weighted average cost of 2.78%. The prepayments of repurchase agreements resulted in a decrease in the cost of funds.
Income Statement Discussion and Analysis
Net interest and dividend income decreased $33,000 to $7.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $7.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The net interest margin decreased 4 bp to 2.55% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to 2.59% for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 4 basis points, which was partially offset by a decrease of 3 basis points in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest and dividend income increased $163,000 to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to $15.1 million for the same period in 2012. The increase in income was primarily due to a 28 bp decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities and an increase of $5.9 million in average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 20 bp decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets.
Net gains on sales of securities were $823,000 for the second quarter 2013, compared to $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The sales primarily represented sales of mortgage-backed securities that were expected to prepay rapidly and decrease the expected yield. Income resulting from a gain on death benefit from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) was $563,000. The Bank also incurred prepayment expense of $1.4 million for the second quarter 2013.
Noninterest income decreased $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The 2013 period included a loss of $2.8 million on prepayment of repurchase agreements compared to none in the 2012 period. In addition, net gains on sales of securities were $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2012.
Noninterest expense increased $274,000 to $6.8 million for the second quarter 2013, compared to $6.5 million for the first quarter 2013. Other expenses increased $167,000 primarily due to increases in advertising and marketing expense of $104,000 and charitable contributions of $93,000, primarily due to the timing of when the expenses are incurred.
Noninterest expense decreased $44,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. This was primarily the result of a decrease in salaries and benefits of $310,000 primarily due to the completion of vesting of certain stock-based compensation in the fourth quarter 2012.
Noninterest expense decreased $374,000 to $13.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $13.7 million for the same period in 2012. Salaries and benefits decreased $779,000 to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to the completion of vesting of certain stock-based compensation in the fourth quarter 2012. This was partially offset by an increase in other expenses of $199,000, driven by an increase of $145,000 in net ATM/Debit card expense resulting from changes in interchange fees and an increase of $71,000 in charitable contributions due to timing of when the expenses are incurred.
Income taxes were $297,000 for the second quarter 2013 and $566,000 for the first quarter 2013. This represents 15.8% and 24.1% of income before taxes, respectively. The decrease for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was primarily due to the non-taxable BOLI death benefit.
Balance Sheet Growth
Total assets were stable at $1.3 billion at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013. Securities decreased $24.7 million to $606.7 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $631.4 million at March 31, 2013. Cash flow from the securities portfolio was used for loan originations and share repurchases.
During the second quarter 2013, total loans increased $10.3 million to $606.6 million. This was primarily due to an increase in residential loans of $8.0 million to $231.9 million and an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $2.3 million to $128.5 million. In addition, commercial real estate loans increased $267,000 to $243.7 million at June 30, 2013.
Total deposits increased $10.5 million to $782.7 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $772.2 million at March 31, 2013. This was primarily due to increases in money market accounts of $16.3 million and noninterest-bearing checking accounts of $5.2 million. This was partially offset by decreases in term accounts of $5.8 million and regular savings accounts of $5.0 million.
Shareholders’ equity was $160.4 million and $179.0 million, which represented 12.4% and 13.7% of total assets at June 30, 2013, and March 31, 2013, respectively. The decrease in shareholders’ equity during the quarter reflects the repurchase of 1,157,582 shares of our common stock at a cost of $8.8 million pursuant to the Company’s stock repurchase program, a decrease in other comprehensive income of $9.2 million due to the change in fair value of securities and the payment of regular and special dividends amounting to $2.3 million. This was partially offset by net income of $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
On May 1, 2013 the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to 1,092,000 shares, or 5% of its outstanding common stock. This repurchase program was completed as of June 30, 2013.
Credit Quality
The allowance for loan losses was $7.5 million at June 30, 2013, and $7.6 million at March 31, 2013, representing 1.23% and 1.27% of total loans, respectively. This represents 228.4% and 255.8% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2013, and March 31, 2013, respectively.
An analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses is as follows:
