Center Bancorp, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2010 Earnings
Union, NJ — (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 07/28/2010 — Center Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNBC) (the “Corporation”, or “Center”), parent company of Union Center National Bank, today reported operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. Net income amounted to $2.0 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, as compared with earnings of $1.2 million, or $0.08 per fully diluted common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Net income for the current quarter included investment securities impairment charges of $706,000, and a one-time charge of $437,000 incurred from a lease/sale transaction on the Corporation’s former operations facility.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, net income amounted to $2.3 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted common share, as compared to $1.7 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted common share, for the same period in 2009.
“The Corporation’s performance for the second quarter of 2010 reflected sustained progress on many levels with solid results that are beginning to reflect Center’s real core value. We achieved earnings growth in the quarter and continued to experience loan demand and deposit growth. Our cost effective funding base of non interest-bearing demand deposits again contributed to a strong net interest margin despite the current market and economic conditions. We also see encouraging signs of a continued improvement in credit quality. The actions we have taken to strengthen the balance sheet over the recent past quarters are beginning to have an impact in positioning the Corporation for improved earnings performance going forward” said Anthony C Weagley, Center’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Weagley further noted, “We are pleased with the growth achieved for the quarter and are optimistic that the Corporation will continue to strengthen its balance sheet. Our current loan demand remains strong and will support our strategic goal of increasing the earning asset mix. Notwithstanding the slowdown in the general markets, we believe that current economic conditions offer a unique window of opportunity for Center to expand its franchise as the market and businesses begin to recover from the recession and seek a strong community bank with the capacity and commitment to meet their needs.”
Results for the quarter include:
| | · | Impairment charges totaling $706,000 were recorded on two issues within the investment securities portfolio, further reducing the remaining exposure related to these bonds. |
| | · | A loss on fixed assets totaling $437,000 was recorded relative to entering into a direct financing lease on the Corporation’s former operations facility. Earnings on the lease arrangement and occupancy expense savings are expected to bring the Corporation to breakeven on the loss related to the transaction within a year. |
| | · | Net interest income increased to $8.7 million, compared to $8.5 million for the first quarter 2010 and $6.6 million for the second quarter 2009. Net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased 2 basis points to 3.37% compared to 3.35% for the first quarter of 2010, and expanded 64 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2009, primarily the result of lower rates on deposits and borrowings. |
| | · | At June 30, 2010, total loans amounted to $722.5 million, an increase of $8.6 million as compared to March 31, 2010. The net growth occurred primarily in the commercial loan portfolio, which is the Corporation’s current strategic focus. Commercial real estate loan growth was nominal during the second quarter 2010 and was more than offset by runoff in the residential real estate portfolio. Total loans at June 30, 2010 increased $28.3 million, or 4.1%, as compared to June 30, 2009. |
| | · | Overall credit quality in the loan portfolio improved during the quarter. Non-performing assets, consisting of non-accrual loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more and other real estate owned, amounted to 0.79% of total assets at June 30, 2010, compared to 0.96% at March 31, 2010 and 0.94% at December 31, 2009. At June 30, 2010, the allowance for loan losses amounted to approximately $8.6 million, or 1.19% of total loans. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total non-performing loans was 112.4% at June 30, 2010 compared to 71.7% at March 31, 2010 and 77.2% at December 31, 2009. |
| | · | Deposits increased to $802.5 million at June 30, 2010 from $792.5 million at March 31, 2010 and decreased $152.7 million from the balance reported at June 30, 2009. The growth in the current quarter was primarily in interest-bearing checking deposits, while the decline from a year ago was largely in time deposits. |
| | · | Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 8.57% at June 30, 2010, compared to 7.52% at June 30, 2009, and 7.73% at December 31, 2009, exceeding regulatory guidelines. |
| | · | Book value per common share was $6.71 at June 30, 2010, compared to $6.32 at December 31, 2009 and $6.14 at June 30, 2009. Tangible book value per common share was $5.54 at June 30, 2010, compared to $5.15 at December 31, 2009 and $4.83 at June 30, 2009. |

Earnings Summary for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2010
For the three months ended June 30, 2010, total interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased $0.3 million or 2.4%, to $12.5 million, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. Total interest expense decreased by $2.2 million, or 37.0%, to $3.8 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period last year. Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, increasing $1.9 million, or 28.6%, from $6.8 million for the comparable period in 2009.
The decrease in interest expense reflects the impact of the sustained low levels in short-term interest rates and lower volume of time deposits. The combined positive effect was a decrease in the average cost of funds, which declined 84 basis points to 1.67% from 2.51% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and on a linked sequential quarter decreased 12 basis points as compared to the first quarter of 2010.
For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Corporation’s net interest spread increased 51 basis points to 3.18% as compared to 2.67% for the comparable three month period in 2009, and the Corporation’s net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of interest-earning assets) widened by 64 basis points from 2.73% to 3.37%, in all cases on an annualized basis.

Troubled debt restructured loans, which are performing loans, increased $4.9 million from March 31, 2010 to $9.4 million at June 30, 2010, due to the addition of four restructurings, offset in part by the removal of three restructured loans that reverted to their original contract terms.

A discussion of the significant components of non-accrual loans at June 30, 2010 is outlined below. This grouping of loans accounts for approximately 82% of total non-accrual loans.
- A $3.0 million loan secured by a commercial property located in Essex County, New Jersey. This non-accrual loan represents an expired participation with Highlands State Bank.
- A $2.0 million loan secured by a commercial property located in Monmouth County, New Jersey. At present, the borrower has changed listing brokers to one that specializes in this type of property. Aggressive marketing is anticipated, and the Corporation expects to be repaid in full from the ultimate sale of the property.
- A $1.0 million loan for a construction project secured by a commercial property in Union County, New Jersey. The borrower has entered into a contract of sale with a closing expected during the third quarter of 2010. From a combination of the net sales proceeds and a restructuring agreement entered into with the borrower, guarantors and affiliated entities, the Corporation expects to be repaid as a result.

The Corporation’s core deposit gathering efforts remain strong. |
| | · | Borrowings totaled $248.9 million at June 30, 2010, decreasing $25.5 million from December 31, 2009, primarily due to repayment of a Federal Home Loan Bank advance and a structured repurchase agreement. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Reported amounts are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Corporation's management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information is utilized by market analysts and others to evaluate a company's financial condition and, therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.
“Return on average tangible stockholders’ equity” is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as net income as a percentage of tangible stockholders’ equity. Tangible stockholders’ equity is defined as common stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. The return on average tangible stockholders’ equity measure may be important to investors that are interested in analyzing our return on equity excluding the effect of changes in intangible assets on equity.
The following presents a reconciliation of average tangible stockholders’ equity and a reconciliation of return on average tangible stockholders’ equity for the periods presented.

“Tangible book value per common share” is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents tangible stockholders’ equity (or tangible book value) calculated on a per common share basis. The disclosure of tangible book value per common share may be helpful to those investors who seek to evaluate the Corporation’s book value per common share without giving effect to goodwill and other intangible assets.
The following presents a reconciliation of book value per common share to tangible book value per common share as of the dates presented.

"Tangible common stockholders' equity/tangible assets" is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as tangible common stockholders' equity as a percentage of total assets minus goodwill and other intangible assets. This measure may be important to investors that are interested in analyzing the financial condition of the Corporation without consideration of intangible assets, inasmuch as tangible common stockholders' equity and tangible assets both exclude goodwill and other intangible assets.
The following presents a reconciliation of total assets to tangible assets and a reconciliation of total stockholders' equity/total assets to tangible common stockholders' equity/tangible assets as of the dates presented.
