LINWOOD, NJ — (MARKET WIRE) — 10/16/07 — Boardwalk Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: BORD), parent company of Boardwalk Bank, announced its operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007. Bancorp reported net income of $553,000 or $.13 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007, a 30% decline over the third quarter of 2006 net income of $790,000 or $.22 per diluted share. Third quarter 2007 earnings represent a decrease of $204,000 or 26.9% over the second quarter of 2007 when Bancorp reported net income of $757,000 or $.18 per diluted share. Net income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007 was negatively impacted by approximately $273,000, net of taxes, of expenses associated with the planned merger with Cape Savings Bank.
Net income for the first nine months of 2007 was $646,000 or $.15 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2,322,000, or $0.65 per diluted share, in the same period in 2006. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was negatively impacted by losses of $1,310,000, net of taxes, from a restructuring of assets in the first quarter of 2007 and the merger related expenses noted above.
Total loans increased by $1,181,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 to $301,791,000, an increase of $24,325,000 or 8.8% from December 31, 2006. At quarter end, Bancorp had $1,304,000 in non-performing assets compared to $480,000 on December 31, 2006.
At September 30, 2007, Bancorp’s total assets decreased to $445,343,000, a decrease of $7,937,000 or 1.8% from $453,280,000 at December 31, 2006. This decrease in total assets is primarily the result of the use of funds received from the first quarter asset restructuring to fund deposit outflows from certificate of deposit re-pricings and reductions in borrowings.
At September 30, 2007, Bancorp’s shareholders’ equity totaled $49,885,000 or 11.2% of period end assets.
Michael D. Devlin, President and CEO of Boardwalk Bancorp, stated:
“While there was a decline in earnings during the quarter, the bank’s performance net of merger related costs was very good. Much of the efforts of the bank’s personnel has been directed to the merger and we believe that we are on target for a closing in the first quarter of 2008.”
