K-FED BANCORP ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS
Covina, CA – January 27, 2009. K-FED Bancorp (NASDAQ: KFED) (the Company), the parent company of Kaiser Federal Bank (the Bank), reported net income of $931,000 or $0.07 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 and $2.3 million or $0.18 per diluted share for the six months then ended. This compares to net income of $406,000 or $0.03 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 and $1.4 million or $0.10 per diluted share for the six months then ended. Net income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2007 includes $1.3 million in stock offering costs resulting from the cancellation of the stock offering in November 2007 due to unfavorable market conditions. The recognition of these expenses resulted in a decline of $0.05 in basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2007.
Asset quality continues to remain strong despite the current economic crisis and continued deterioration in the housing market. Loans delinquent 60 days or more totaled $4.9 million or 0.65% of total loans and non-performing assets totaled $5.8 million or 0.69% of total assets at December 31, 2008. Net charge-offs totaled $330,000 or 0.18% of average loans and $645,000 or 0.17% of average loans for the three and six months ended December 31, 2008. While these amounts and related ratios have been increasing, they continue to be well below industry averages. We have also taken a very proactive approach in monitoring our loan portfolio in order to identify potential problem loans and we evaluate our allowance for loan losses on an ongoing basis to ensure its adequacy. Accordingly, our provision for loan losses has increased to $984,000 and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 from $184,000 and $352,000 for the comparable periods of the prior year.
We attribute our strong asset quality to our conservative and disciplined lending practices as well as our uncompromising emphasis on credit quality. In this regard, the Bank has remained true to the traditional residential loan products that require qualified borrowers with a minimum of 20% equity in the underlying properties. Further, we have not originated or purchased construction and development loans, teaser option-ARM loans, negative amortizing loans or high loan to value loans.
Total assets decreased to $834.8 million at December 31, 2008 from $849.0 million at June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily a result of a pay down of $28.0 million of higher costing Federal Home Loan Bank advances with available liquidity and additional deposits of $12.9 million. Net interest margin increased to 2.56% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 as compared to 2.45% for the same period last year. The 11 basis point increase was a result of the declining interest rate environment that began in late 2007.
Total equity increased to $91.7 million at December 31, 2008 from $90.7 million at June 30, 2008, which is 10.99% of total assets. Currently, the Bank meets all regulatory capital requirements established by the Office of Thrift Supervision in order to be classified as a “well-capitalized” bank.
After careful consideration the Company has elected not to apply for funds available through the Capital Purchase Program, which is part of the United States Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program. Given that we are a well-capitalized, profitable bank with strong credit quality we believe that participation would not be in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders.
This release contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words like “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” and “intend” or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could” or “may.” Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include, changes in the interest rate environment, changes in general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes that adversely affect the business of K-Fed Bancorp and Kaiser Federal Bank, and changes in the securities markets. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements contained in this release to reflect future events or developments.
