K-FED BANCORP ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
Covina, CA – April 28, 2009. K-Fed Bancorp (NASDAQ: KFED) (the “Company”), the parent company of Kaiser Federal Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income of $1.2 million or $0.09 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and $3.5 million or $0.27 per diluted share for the nine months then ended. This compares to net income of $1.3 million or $0.10 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and $2.7 million or $0.20 per diluted share for the nine months then ended. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 included $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 nine months ended March 31, 2008.
While the banking sector continues to experience challenges as evidenced by the continued deterioration of the housing market, increasing delinquencies and foreclosures, and a significant increase in unemployment both nationally and in California, the Company continues to be profitable with assets, loans and deposits at record levels. Total assets increased to $881.2 million at March 31, 2009 from $849.0 million at June 30, 2008. Total loans increased to $756.4 million at March 31, 2009 from $745.4 million at June 30, 2008. The Bank continues to originate predominately multi-family loans to replace its declining one-to-four family loan portfolio as we rebalance our loan portfolio. While the loan portfolio continues to perform well overall, as evidenced by non-accrual and delinquency ratios that are significantly below industry averages, our multi-family and commercial real estate loan portfolios in particular have experienced very low levels of non-accrual and charge-offs. Total deposits increased to $554.3 million at March 31, 2009 as compared to $495.1 million at June 30, 2008 as depositors look for the safety of banks with strong capital positions. We were able to maintain our strong asset growth during the year while paying down $28.0 million of higher costing Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances with available liquidity produced by the increase in deposits.
As expected, based on the weakened economy and continued decline in the housing market, our one-to-four family mortgage loan portfolio has shown increased delinquency. Delinquent loans 60 days or more totaled $5.7 million or 0.75% of total loans and non-performing assets totaled $6.9 million or 0.78% of total assets at March 31, 2009. Delinquent loans 60 days or more totaled $1.9 million or 0.26% of total loans and non-performing assets totaled $2.9 million or 0.35% of total assets at June 30, 2008. Consistent with the increase in delinquent and non-performing assets, net charge-offs increased to $289,000 or 0.15% and $933,000 or 0.17% of average loans for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009, respectively, from net charge-offs of $24,000 or 0.01% and $300,000 or 0.06% of average loans for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008, respectively.
We take a 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 $660,000 and $2.0 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009 from $200,000 and $551,000 for the comparable periods of the prior year. The provision reflects management’s continuing assessment of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, which is affected by various trends, including current economic conditions.
Net interest margin increased to 2.83% and 2.65% for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2009, respectively from 2.51% and 2.44% for the same periods last year. The increasing margin reflects a significant reduction in our cost of funds as a result of the declining interest rate environment and pay down of FHLB advances as well as modest growth in our loan portfolio.
Total equity increased to $92.0 million at March 31, 2009 from $90.7 million at June 30, 2008, which is 10.44% 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.
