Credit Quality
Nonperforming loans (defined as nonaccrual loans and loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest) decreased $742,000, or 12.7%, to $5,093,000 at December 31, 2013 from $5,835,000 at December 31, 2012. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 1.00% at December 31, 2013, compared to 1.19% at December 31, 2012.
The overall level of nonperforming loans decreased $123,000 to $5,093,000 at December 31, 2013 from $5,216,000 at September 30, 2013. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company identified five loans totaling $631,000 as additional nonperforming loans. These additions were offset by reductions in nonperforming loans totaling $754,000 due primarily to collections received on certain loans and charge-offs. Of the five loans totaling $631,000 identified as nonaccrual loans and added to nonperforming loans, the largest loan of this group totaled $240,000. This loan is a commercial loan and it has a specific reserve of $150,000. The remaining four loans in this group of nonperforming loans totaled $391,000 and no specific reserves have been established for them.
Gross loan charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $349,000 and recoveries totaled $338,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $11,000 compared to gross loan charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2012 of $1,051,000 and recoveries of $82,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $969,000. Gross loan charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $1,840,000 and recoveries for the same year totaled $683,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $1,157,000, compared to gross charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $4,702,000 and recoveries of $404,000 resulting in net charge-offs of $4,298,000.
Nonperforming assets (nonperforming loans and other real estate owned (“OREO”)) totaled $8,547,000 at December 31, 2013, a decrease of $19,711,000, or 69.8%, from the December 31, 2012 balance of $28,258,000. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 0.93% at December 31, 2013 compared to 3.13% at December 31, 2012.
The Company’s OREO properties decreased $11,591,000 to $3,454,000 at December 31, 2013 from $15,045,000 at September 30, 2013. The decrease in OREO was due to the sale of thirteen properties totaling $11,281,000, and the write-down of certain other OREO properties totaling $937,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was partially offset by the addition of one OREO property in the amount of $627,000, which was originally purchased for expansion by the Company but subsequently concluded that it was no longer needed.
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, increased $35,000, or 0.5%, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Interest income decreased by $77,000, or 0.9%, for the three months ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to the decrease in yield on average loan balances.

Offsetting this decrease in interest income for the quarter was a decrease in interest expense of $112,000, or 22.2%, primarily due to a decrease in the rates paid on deposits. Overall, average earning assets increased $47,619,000 in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the fourth quarter of 2012.

Interest expense decreased $1,907,000, or 54.1%, due to a decrease in interest expense on subordinated debentures and a decrease in rates paid on deposits for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased 3 basis points to 3.77% from the net interest margin of 3.80% for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The primary reason for the decrease in noninterest income in 2013 compared to 2012 was due to a decrease in gains on the sale of available for sale securities of $1,329,000.
