North Valley Bancorp Reports Results for the Quarter
and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
November 15, 2010 – REDDING, CA - North Valley Bancorp (NASDAQ:NOVB), a bank holding company with approximately $895 million in assets, today reported results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010. North Valley Bancorp (“the Company”) is the parent company for North Valley Bank (“NVB”).
“In the third quarter, we recognized significant non-cash charges totaling $23.1 million, due to a valuation allowance reducing the carrying amount of our deferred tax assets and recognition for accounting purposes of the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature associated with the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock to common stock. The mandatory conversion of preferred stock on July 21, 2010 derived from our successful capital raise during the second quarter of 2010”, stated Michael J. Cushman, CEO. “Recognition of the beneficial conversion feature did not impact our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and we continue to reduce nonperforming assets during the third quarter despite the challenges of the weak economy and housing market. Our primary goal continues to be the reduction of nonperforming assets and during the third quarter we aggressively marked down OREO properties in an effort to sell them quickly. Also, during the third quarter, we announced the formation of our Government Guaranteed Lending Group and the hiring of a new Market Leader for the Sacramento, Yolo and Sonoma counties.”
The Company reported a net operating loss for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010 of $7,633,000 compared to operating net income of $684,000 for the same period in 2009. The Company reported a net operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 of $8,517,000 compared to a net operating loss of $6,512,000 for the same period in 2009. A primary reason for the loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was a $4,500,000 valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance is recorded as a provision for income tax in the current year and offsets previously recorded tax benefits for 2010. The Company’s operating loss before provision for income tax was $5,426,000 and $7,800,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. A val uation allowance for deferred tax assets is established when it is determined that more likely than not, all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
As previously reported, on April 22, 2010, the Company completed a $40 million capital raise by which the Company issued 40,000 shares of Series A Mandatorily Convertible Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $37.5 million. On July 16, 2010, the Company obtained shareholder approval to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share, and mandatory conversion occurred on July 21, 2010. The market value of the Company’s common stock on April 22, 2010, the commitment date for the preferred stock issuance, was $2.20 per share. Under applicable accounting rules, the conversion feature of the preferred stock had an intrinsic value on April 22, 2010 of $0.70 per share, or $18,667,000, based on the difference between the conversion price of $1.50 per share a nd the market value of the Company’s common stock at the commitment date. The Company recognized this difference of $18,667,000 as a beneficial conversion discount on the preferred stock as of the July 21, 2010 conversion date. After combining this implied dividend on the preferred stock with operating results for the quarter, the Company reported a loss available to common shareholders of $26,300,000, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010, and a loss available to common shareholders of $27,184,000, or $1.89 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The accounting entries required to reflect an implied dividend on preferred stock during the third quarter did not change the amount of total shareholders’ equity of the Company nor change the Company’s capital ratios at September 30, 2010. However, as indicated, this accounting treatment did significantly reduce net income available to common shareholders and the earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
At September 30, 2010, the Company’s Total Risk-based Capital was $112,135,000, and its risk-based capital ratios were: Total Risk-based Capital ratio – 16.99%; Tier 1 risk-based Capital ratio – 15.20%; and Tier 1 Leverage ratio – 11.01%. The Bank’s Total Risk-based Capital at September 30, 2010 was $112,636,000, and its risk-based capital ratios were: Total Risk-based Capital ratio – 17.09%; Tier 1 risk-based Capital ratio – 15.82%; and Tier 1 Leverage ratio – 11.46%.
The Company recorded provisions for loan and lease losses of $4,600,000 and $8,200,000 for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to provisions for loan and lease losses of $1,500,000 and $17,500,000 for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009. The allowance for loan and lease losses at September 30, 2010 was $15,249,000, or 2.84% of total loans, compared to $18,539,000, or 3.08% of total loans at December 31, 2009 and $19,423,000, or 3.09% of total loans at September 30, 2009.
At September 30, 2010, total assets were $894,993,000, a decrease of $18,910,000, or 2.1%, from $913,903,000 at September 30, 2009.

The loan to deposit ratio at September 30, 2010 was 70.0% as compared to 78.7% at September 30, 2009, and 76.5% at December 31, 2009. Total deposits decreased $33,342,000, or 4.2%, to $765,653,000 at September 30, 2010 compared to $798,995,000 at September 30, 2009. When compared to December 31, 2009, total assets increased $10,631,000 from $884,362,000, driven by an increase in shareholders equity due to the net $37,500,000 capital raise completed in April 2010, loans decreased by $66,121,000 from $602,417,000 and deposits decreased by $22,156,000 from $787,80 9,000. Available-for-sale investment securities increased $95,652,000 from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010 as a result of the increase in equity and decrease in loans.

Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 5.53% at September 30, 2010, compared to 8.66% at September 30, 2009, and 7.74% at December 31, 2009.
Nonperforming assets (nonperforming loans and OREO) totaled $48,493,000 at September 30, 2010, a decrease of $13,894,000 from the September 30, 2009 balance of $62,387,000, and a $10,482,000 decrease from the December 31, 2009 balance of $58,975,000. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 5.42% at September 30, 2010 compared to 6.83% at September 30, 2009 and 6.67% at December 31, 2009.
Gross loan and lease charge-offs for the third quarter of 2010 were $5,705,000 and recoveries totaled $203,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $5,502,000 compared to gross loan and lease charge-offs for the third quarter of 2009 of $5,290,000 and recoveries of $1,094,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $4,196,000. Gross charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $11,740,000 and recoveries totaled $480,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $11,260,000, compared to gross charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 of $10,774,000 and recoveries of $1,370,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $9,404,000.
The overall level of nonperforming loans decreased $8,767,000 to $29,643,000 at September 30, 2010 from $38,410,000 at June 30, 2010. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company added eight loans with aggregate amounts outstanding of $6,049,000 to nonperforming loans. These additions were offset by reductions in nonperforming loans totaling $14,816,000 due primarily to transfers to OREO of twelve properties totaling $8,420,000, and secondarily due to charge-offs and collections received on certain loans. Of the eight loans totaling $6,049,000 identified as nonaccrual loans and added to nonperforming loans during the third quarter of 2010, one relationship represents $4,824,000 of that balance. This relationship consists of two mixed-use land development loans located in Placer County. No specific reserve has been established for thes e loans. The remaining six loans in this group that were placed on nonaccrual during the third quarter of 2010 total $1,225,000 and specific reserves of $118,000 have been established.
The Company’s OREO properties increased $2,424,000 to $18,850,000 at September 30, 2010 from $16,426,000 at June 30, 2010. The increase in OREO was due to the transfer of twelve properties totaling $8,420,000, which was partially offset by the sale of six properties for a total of $2,947,000. The Company recorded a gain on sale for those six properties totaling $33,000, and recorded a write-down of certain other OREO properties during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 of $3,082,000.
Operating Results
Net interest income, which represents the Company’s largest component of revenues and is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings, decreased $80,000, or 1.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Interest income decreased by $1,123,000, primarily due to the lower yield on earning assets. The Company had foregone interest income of $553,000 related to loans currently on nonaccrual status for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $557,000 for the same period in 2009. Offsetting this was a decrease in interest expense of $1,043,000, or 32.3%, due to a decrease in the rates paid on deposits. Average loans decreased $87,132,000 in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009, while the yi eld on the loan portfolio increased 9 basis points to 5.94% for the third quarter of 2010.

Net interest income decreased $1,369,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Interest income decreased by $4,071,000, primarily due to a decrease in income on loans of $4,654,000 as a result of both the lower yield on average loans and the decrease in the average balance of loans. Interest expense decreased $2,702,000 due primarily to a decrease of 53 basis points on rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.

Noninterest expense increased $2,780,000 to $11,779,000 for the third quarter of 2010 from $8,999,000 for the third quarter of 2009. Comparing the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2009, salaries and employee benefits decreased $202,000 and occupancy and equipment expense decreased $163,000.

FDIC insurance premiums and state assessments were $438,000, for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $503,000 for the same period in 2009.

Due to the Company’s previous losses, it was determined to be more likely than not that a portion of its deferred tax asset will not be realized, and at September 30, 2010, the Company established a valuation allowance of $4,500,000 to reduce the carrying amount of its deferred tax assets to $9,807,000. The valuation allowance was booked as a provision for income tax in the current year and offsets previously recorded tax benefits for 2010, resulting in a provision for income taxes of $2,207,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, and a tax provision of $717,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 of $629,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 47.9%, and recorded a benefit for income taxes for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 of $6,673,000, resulting in an effective tax benefit rate of 50.6%.
