One-to-four-family originations of loans held for sale including loans brokered to other institutions decreased $30.1 million, or 15.4%, to $165.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $195.5 million for the preceding quarter, and $81.2 million for the same quarter one year ago.  The reduction in originations was a result of the seasonal summer slowdown in purchase transactions compared to the prior quarter.  The percentage of one-to-four-family mortgage loan originations for home purchases was 79.7% of third quarter volume versus 20.3% of third quarter volume for refinance activity.  This compares to 78.8% of second quarter volume to purchase a home versus 21.2% to refinance in the second quarter of 2015.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company sold $137.5 million of one-to-four-family mortgage loans compared to $185.5 million in sales for the preceding quarter, and sales of $74.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) at September 30, 2015 was $7.4million, or 1.5% of gross loans receivable, compared to $6.9 million, or 1.6% of gross loans receivable as of June 30, 2015, and $5.8 million, or 1.6% of gross loans receivable at September 30, 2014.  Non-performing loans, consisting of non-accrual loans, decreased to $841,000 at September 30, 2015, from $1.0 million at June 30, 2015, and increased from $409,000 at September 30, 2014.  Substandard loans decreased $1.1 million, or 28.2%, to $2.8 million at September 30, 2015, compared to $3.9 million at June 30, 2015, and increased from $1.3 million at September 30, 2014.  The increase from one year ago was primarily associated with the downgrade of one commercial business loan of $2.0 million as a result of the financial performance by the borrower.  There was no OREO at September 30, 2015, June 30, 2015, or September 30, 2014.  At September 30, 2015, the Company had $736,000 in restructured loans, of which one loan with a balance of $525,000 was placed on nonaccrual status in the third quarter of 2015, and the remaining $211,000 loans were performing in accordance with their modified terms, compared to restructured loans of $737,000 at June 30, 2015, and $791,000 at September 30, 2014.

Total deposits increased $29.4 million, or 6.2%, to $499.9 million at September 30, 2015, from $470.5 million at June 30, 2015, and increased $119.6 million, or 31.4%, from $380.3 million at September 30, 2014.  Relationship-based transactional deposits increased $2.7 million, or 2.7% to $103.2 million as of September 30, 2015, from $100.5 million at June 30, 2015, and increased from $75.7 million at September 30, 2014.  Money market and savings accounts increased $8.0 million, or 4.3%, to $196.1 million at September 30, 2015, from $188.1 million at June 30, 2015, and increased $52.7 million, or 36.8%, from $143.4 million at September 30, 2014.  Time deposits increased $18.6 million, primarily as a result of the summer 30-month CD special, or 10.2%, to $200.5 million at September 30, 2015, from $181.9 million at June 30, 2015, and increased $39.3 million, or 24.4%, from $161.2 million at the same period last year.  The announced proposed acquisition of four retail banking branches (two in Jefferson County and two in Clallam County) is expected to provide immediate core deposit liquidity and expand the Bank’s footprint into a contiguous market. The branch acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2016, and will provide liquidity to support lending growth.

Non-retail deposits, which include $30.5 million of brokered certificates of deposits, $21.0 million of online certificates of deposits, and $1.7 million of public funds, remained unchanged at $53.2 million at September 30, 2015, and June 30, 2015, and increased from $40.6 million at September 30, 2014.  Management utilizes the wholesale market deposits to mitigate interest rate risk exposure where appropriate.

Borrowings increased $39.0 million, or 192.4%, to $59.3 million as of September 30, 2015, from $20.3 million at June 30, 2015, and increased $36.7 million, or 162.8%, from $22.6 million at September 30, 2014.  The increase from the prior quarter was primarily to fund loan growth during the quarter.  Management anticipates borrowings will remain elevated through the acquisition of the branches scheduled to be consummated in the first quarter of 2016, then will be reduced once the branch acquisition is completed.

Total equity increased $2.3 million, or 3.4%, to $73.2 million at September 30, 2015, from $70.9 million at June 30, 2015, and increased $9.2 million, or 14.4%, from $64.0 million at September 30, 2014.  The increase in equity from the second quarter of 2015 was predominantly a result of net income of $2.0 million, and an increase of $258,000 in other comprehensive income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as the value of our investment securities portfolio increased, partially offset by dividends paid of $214,000.  Book value per common diluted shares outstanding was $24.54 as of September 30, 2015, compared to $23.80 as of June 30, 2015, and $21.90 as of September 30, 2014.

The Bank is well capitalized under the minimum capital requirements established by the FDIC with a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.9%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.4%, and a common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio of 12.6% at September 30, 2015, compared to 13.6%, 10.9%, and 12.3% at June 30, 2015, respectively.  The increase in capital ratios at the Bank occurred due to a $5.0 million downstream of capital from FS Bancorp, Inc. in anticipation of the four retail bank branch acquisition closing in the first quarter of 2016.

The Company exceeds all regulatory capital requirements with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.7%, Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 12.2%, and a CET1 capital ratio of 13.5% as of September 30, 2015, compared to 15.6%, 12.6%, and 14.3% at June 30, 2015, respectively.

Operating Results

Net interest income increased $1.3 million, or 22.0%, to $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  Net interest income increased $4.4 million, or 27.3%, to $20.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The net interest margin (“NIM”) decreased 31 basis points to 4.97% for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from 5.28% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, and decreased five basis points to 5.06% for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, from 5.11% for the same period of the prior year. The decreased NIM

FS Bancorp Q3 Bancorp

reflects an increase in lower yielding loans including the recently acquired one-to-four-family loans.  Our strategy to increase the loan portfolio through diversified lending channels has pressured the NIM as the increase in lower yielding real estate and commercial business loans has offset the increase in higher yielding consumer loan products.  The average cost of funds decreased five basis points to 0.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from 0.76% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, and was unchanged at 0.72% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as a result of minimal changes in interest rates year over year.  Management is focused on matching deposit duration with the duration of earning assets where appropriate.

The provision for loan losses was $600,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared to $450,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  The provision for loan losses was $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  The increase in the provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to loan growth of $96.5 million.  Non-performing loans were $841,000, or 0.2% of total loans at September 30, 2015, compared to $409,000 or 0.1% of total loans at September 30, 2014.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, net charge-offs totaled $139,000 compared to $186,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2014.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net charge-offs totaled $502,000 compared to $630,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Noninterest income increased $2.0 million or 83.6%, to $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  The increase during the period was primarily due to the increase in gain on sale of loans of $1.8 million which occurred due to personnel hired to expand our lending operations in the third quarter of 2014.  Noninterest income increased $6.8 million, or 99.1%, to $13.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  The increase during the period was primarily due to the $6.5 million increase in gain on sale of loans.

Noninterest expense increased $1.7 million, or 28.9%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  Changes in noninterest expense included a $738,000, or 20.7% increase in salaries and benefits associated with the continued investment in growing the lending and deposit franchise primarily as a result of the hiring of additional employees in mortgage-related lending, a $432,000, or 100.0% increase in acquisition costs related to our proposed branch acquisition, a $186,000, or 20.0% increase in operations, a $162,000, or 51.1% increase in professional and board fees, a $77,000, or 18.3% increase in occupancy expense, and a $63,000, or 19.9% increase in loan costs this quarter.  Noninterest expense increased $4.7 million, or 27.8%, to $21.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from $17.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily as a result of a $2.5 million, or 25.6% increase in salaries and benefits, an $806,000, or 33.5% increase in operations, a $432,000, or 100.0% increase in acquisition costs, a $349,000, or 38.0% increase in professional and board fees, a $214,000, or 23.3% increase in data processing, a $167,000, or 13.7% increase in occupancy expense, a $117,000, or 11.6% increase in loan costs, and an $87,000, or 23.5% increase in marketing and advertising expense.

Management anticipates acquisition costs to continue to occur through the first quarter of 2016.
