Frank M. Mastrangelo, Bancorp’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Fourth quarter results reflect both challenges and progress in transitioning the bank’s business. BSA related consulting expenses, investments in personnel, a volatile CMBS market, and an increase in our FDIC insurance assessment contributed to a loss for the quarter. In the fourth quarter, our FDIC insurance expense increased approximately $1 million over the prior quarter. While reductions in that expense are dependent upon future FDIC evaluations of the Bank, the BSA new hires and consulting expenses reflect our intense efforts toward satisfying all BSA regulatory requests. We believe we are making progress. Additionally, the fourth quarter was absent a previous contributor to earnings in gains on the sale of loans to secondary CMBS markets, due to volatility in these markets which the Bank had not previously experienced. The volatility has since subsided and we look forward to a return to the level of contribution in prior periods. For the year, gain on such sales still amounted to $12.5 million, net of the fourth quarter $926,000 loss. As a result of our greater emphasis on our targeted specialty lending, those segments have experienced substantial year over year growth as follows: SBA 43%, SBLOC (Security Backed Lines of Credit) 44% and Leasing 11%. Prior to year end and with the assistance of advisors, we sold a portion of the discontinued loan portfolio to an entity managed by an independent investor, which contributed $16 million to that entity. The loans had a principal balance of $267.6 million and had previously been marked to $213.5 million with an additional $3.9 million loss recognized upon the sale. The Bank retains a 49% interest in the purchaser and provided financing of two notes. The first was for $178.2 million of notes at 1.5% and the second was for $15.4 million of subordinate notes at 10% per year and both mature in December, 2024. We continue to work with intermediaries to sell our approximate $900 million discontinued loan portfolio so that sales proceeds may be reinvested in our continuing operations, including our targeted lending segments and investment securities.
Book value at December 31, 2014 amounted to $9.44 compared to $9.53 at December 31, 2013. The Bank remains well capitalized.”
