First Community Financial Partners, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Strong Results Reflect Asset, Loan and Deposit Growth, and Improved Asset Quality
JOLIET, IL, April 22, 2015 -- First Community Financial Partners, Inc. (OTCQB:FCMP) (“First Community”or the “Company”), the parent company of First Community Financial Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2015.
Net income applicable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $1.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared with $361,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Earnings in the first quarter of 2015 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income, stable interest expense and no loan loss provision compared with a $2.0 million loan loss provision in the first quarter of 2014.
Roy C. Thygesen, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter earnings reflect the positive impact of First Community’s decisive actions taken in recent years to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet and capital position, cut expenses through bank charter consolidation, reduce non-performing loans, and prepare the Company for healthy growth. We are building the First Community franchise, expanding lending activities, and establishing commercial banking relationships, which have contributed to strong growth in low-cost core deposits. We are managing expenses prudently while continuing to invest in hiring experienced bankers and enhancing our operational and business capabilities.
“By establishing aggressive goals for quality growth, productivity and profitability, we believe our shareholder value appreciated considerably year-over-year. Our first quarter was a solid start to the year, and we anticipate that as we continue to execute our plan, we have a tremendous opportunity to continue building value for all our shareholders.”

Income Statement Highlights
Net interest income was $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2014. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.23% in the first quarter of 2015, compared to 3.29% in the first quarter of 2014, while the net interest spread was 3.00% compared to 3.10% in the prior year’s first quarter.
Interest income on loans was $7.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $7.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, reflecting contributions from $49.9 million in loan growth, partially offset by newer loans being booked at lower average yields due to the ongoing low interest rate environment and competitive market conditions.
“Our primary focus has been on credit quality, and strong borrowers are able to obtain attractive pricing,” noted Mr. Thygesen. “Our continued focus to grow commercial demand deposit accounts as part of our client banking relationships has facilitated interest expense management on the deposit side, helping mitigate some of the margin pressure in loan pricing.”
Interest income on securities was $951,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $675,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase in interest income on securities was the result of growth in the portfolio, along with improvement in the overall yield of the government sponsored enterprises and state and political subdivision portfolios.
Interest expense on deposits was $977,000 in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2014, which primarily reflected a decline in time deposits, that were replaced by growth in noninterest bearing deposits, along with an increase in lower cost NOW, money market and savings accounts.
Noninterest income was $445,000 in the first quarter of 2015, which included year-over-year growth in service charges on deposit accounts resulting from growth in noninterest bearing deposits that provide greater fee income, a $21,000 gain on securities sales, and mortgage fee income of $103,000, which rose 80.7% compared with a year earlier. Noninterest income in the first quarter of 2014 was $621,000, which included other income of $288,000 from an earnest deposit on loan sale that did not occur.
Noninterest expense was $5.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 compared to $4.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Salaries and benefits were consistent year-over-year and lower occupancy expense reflected the purchase of the Channahon, Illinois branch in mid-2014. Expenses in the first quarter of 2014 included a reversal of $210,000 related to a reserve for a problem letter of credit.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets were $959.1 million at March 31, 2015, up 10.2% from $870.1 million at March 31, 2014, and up 3.8% from $924.1 million at December 31, 2014.
Net loans (after allowance for loan losses) were $698.1 million at March 31, 2015, an 8.1% increase from $645.5 million at March 31, 2014, and a 3.4% increase from $675.3 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting balanced growth in all lending categories and a lower allowance for loan losses. Commercial real estate loans increased $19.4 million to $369.1 million year-over-year, and reflected a strong first quarter of 2015 in which the Company added $15.1 million in new commercial real estate loans. Construction and land development loans increased 27.0% year-over-year despite a decline of 0.8% in the first quarter of 2015 to $18.6 million, while commercial loans rose $11.1 million year-over-year, an increase of 2.8% to $176.3 million. Residential 1-4 family loans, which grew steadily throughout 2014, were $102.4 million at March 31, 2015, up 14.4% from $89.6 million at March 31, 2014, and up 1.6% from $100.8 million at December 31, 2014.
“The Company’s lending activity reflects our ongoing strategy to build a strong, diversified and risk-resistant loan portfolio across numerous sectors and within each category,” explained Mr. Thygesen. “Commercial real estate, our largest loan category, reflects contributions in a variety of sectors such as retail, industrial and warehouse, health care and office. Residential real estate lending, which completed its first full year of operation in 2014, further diversifies our loan mix and demonstrated significant traction throughout 2014 and in the first quarter of 2015.”
Year-over-year asset comparisons include growth of investment securities to $190.9 million at March 31, 2015, compared with $149.9 million at March 31, 2014 and $168.7 million at December 31, 2014. Strong gains in low-cost deposits facilitated some of the growth. Average duration of the Company’s investment portfolio remains modest at approximately four years.
Total deposits, which increased to $801.1 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared with $769.4 million at December 31, 2014, and $729.4 million at March 31, 2014, reflected the Company’s focus on growing core deposits from commercial business depositors. Approximately $48.5 million of the year-over-year growth, and $9.4 million in the first quarter has come from commercial noninterest bearing demand deposits. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 45.0% year-over-year and 5.9% in the first quarter of 2015, savings deposits increased 26.2% year-over-year and 9.6% in the first quarter, NOW accounts were relatively flat in both periods and money market accounts increased to $217.6 million at March 31, 2015 from $167.7 million at March 31, 2014 and $196.2 million at December 31, 2014. This growth has reduced First Community’s overall reliance on time deposits for funding its asset growth. Ongoing rebalancing of the Company’s deposit portfolio resulted in a decline in time deposits to $310.7 million at March 31, 2015 from $310.9 million at December 31, 2014 and $346.2 million at March 31, 2014.
Asset Quality and Performance Metrics
Total nonperforming assets declined by 54.9% to $8.8 million at March 31, 2015 from $19.5 million at March 31, 2014, and 7.4% from $9.5 million at December 31, 2014. The improvement reflected a decline in total nonperforming loans to $6.2 million from $15.3 million a year earlier, and from $7.0 million at December 31, 2014, while foreclosed assets were $2.6 million at March 31, 2015, down from $4.2 million at March 31, 2014 and up slightly from $2.5 million at December 31, 2014. Net charge-offs, which declined sharply beginning in the third quarter of 2014, were $127,000 in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2014.
The Company had no provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2015 compared with $2.0 million in the first quarter of 2014, reflecting significantly improved asset quality. The Company’s allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 221.83% at March 31, 2015, compared to 198.73% at December 31, 2014 and 107.12% at March 31, 2014.
The Bank was well capitalized according to applicable regulatory standards at March 31, 2015, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.70%, Tier 1 risk based ratio of 11.47%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 15.08%, and a common equity Tier 1 ratio of 11.47%. Measures of shareholder value, ROAA, ROAE, total shareholders’ equity and tangible book value per share all increased in the first quarter of 2015. First Community’s ratio of tangible common shareholder’s equity to tangible assets was 9.90% at March 31, 2015, compared to 9.96% at December 31, 2014 and 9.93% at March 31, 2014.
Mr. Thygesen concluded, “We are enthusiastic about First Community’s prospects and opportunities as we move forward in 2015 and beyond. Our primary goals for the year are to generate quality organic loan growth, build commercial client relationships that incorporate deposit and fee-based treasury services, and to maintain the asset quality that has enabled the Company to deliver accelerating earnings and increased shareholder value.”
