ELMIRA, N.Y., July 21, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chemung Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”) (Nasdaq:CHMG), the parent company of Chemung Canal Trust Company (the “Bank”), today reported net income for the second quarter of 2016 of $2.4 million, or $0.50 per share, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.55 per share, for the second quarter of 2015.
Ronald M. Bentley, Chemung Financial Corporation CEO, stated:
“We continue to grow our municipal deposit base, which was the primary contributor for the $67.6 million increase in deposits since December 31, 2015. Our deposit growth has allowed us to continue funding higher yielding commercial loans and indirect auto loans, and grow our net interest income. Finally, we created a new captive insurance subsidiary during the second quarter of 2016, which will allow us to strengthen our risk management program, along with providing a potential net tax benefit starting in 2017.”

1 Balance sheet comparisons are calculated for June 30, 2016 versus December 31, 2015. Income statement comparisons are calculated for the second quarter of 2016 versus prior-year second quarter.
2nd Quarter 2016 vs 1st Quarter 2016
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $13.0 million, consistent with the prior quarter. Interest and fees from loans and interest-bearing deposits both increased $0.1 million, while interest and dividend income from securities decreased $0.2 million when compared to the prior quarter. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.36%, compared with 3.47% for the prior quarter. Average interest-earning assets increased $45.7 million compared to the prior quarter. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased twelve basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was flat compared to the prior quarter. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased due to an increase of $55.3 million in the average interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions balance, compared to the prior quarter. These deposits earned the federal funds rate of approximately 50 basis points during the current quarter.
Non-Interest Income:
Non-interest income for the quarter was $5.2 million compared with $5.6 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 6.9%. The decrease was due primarily to the $0.9 million net gain on security transactions from the sale of $14.5 million in U.S. Treasuries during the prior quarter. Offsetting the net gain on security transactions were increases of $0.2 million in wealth management group fee income, $0.2 million in service charges on deposit accounts, and $0.1 million in other non-interest income. The increase in wealth management group fee income can be attributed to tax services performed during the quarter. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts can be attributed to seasonality.
Non-Interest Expense:
Non-interest expense for the quarter was $14.4 million compared with $14.0 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $0.4 million, or 2.6%. The increase was due primarily to increases of $0.2 million in professional services, $0.1 million in marketing and advertising expenses, and $0.1 million in loan expense. The increase in professional services can be attributed to start-up costs associated with the establishment of Chemung Risk Management, Inc. (the “Captive”), a captive insurance subsidiary, which was completed in May 2016. The increase in marketing and advertising expense was due to seasonality, as the Bank sponsors the majority of its events during the spring and summer. The increase in loan expense can be attributed to an increase in commercial loan volume.
2nd Quarter 2016 vs 2nd Quarter 2015
Net Interest Income:
Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $13.0 million compared with $12.6 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.4 million, or 2.5%. Interest and fees from loans increased $0.2 million, while interest and dividend income from securities increased $0.1 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.36%, compared with 3.50% for the same period in the prior year. Average interest-earning assets increased $110.5 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 14 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased one basis point compared to the same period in the prior year. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased due to an increase of $33.8 million in the average interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions balance, compared to the same period in the prior year. These deposits earned the federal funds rate of approximately 50 basis points during the current quarter.
Non-Interest Income:
Non-interest income for the quarter was $5.2 million compared with $5.3 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 2.1%. The decrease was due primarily to the $0.3 million net gain on security transactions from the sale of $48.3 million in U.S. government sponsored agencies and Treasury securities during 2015. Offsetting the net gain on security transactions were increases of $0.1 million in service charges on deposit accounts and interchange revenue from debit card transactions. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts can be attributed to seasonality. The increase in interchange revenue from debit card transactions can be attributed to an increase in debit card activity when compared to the same period in the prior year.
Non-Interest Expense:
Non-interest expense for the quarter was $14.4 million compared with $13.8 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.6 million, or 3.9%. The increase was due primarily to increases of $0.1 million in pension and employee benefits, $0.1 million in net occupancy expenses, $0.2 million in data processing, $0.2 million in professional services, and $0.1 million in other non-interest expense, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in other real estate owned expense. The increase in net occupancy expenses can be attributed to one-time depreciation expense related to the closure of the branch office at 202 East State Street in Ithaca, NY at the end of May 2016. The increase in professional services can be attributed to start-up costs associated with the establishment of the Captive, which was completed in May 2016. The decrease in other real estate owned can be attributed to the sale of properties in 2015.
Asset Quality
Non-performing loans totaled $12.4 million at June 30, 2016, or 1.03% of total loans, compared with $12.2 million at December 31, 2015, or 1.05% of total loans. The increase in non-performing loans at June 30, 2016 was primarily in the residential mortgage and consumer loan segments of the loan portfolio. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans and other real estate owned, were $12.8 million, or 0.76% of total assets, at June 30, 2016, compared with $13.8 million, or 0.85% of total assets, at December 31, 2015.
Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors including an analysis of historical loss factors, collateral evaluations, recent charge-off experience, credit quality of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and loan growth. Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2016 and 2015 were $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2016 were $0.2 million compared with $0.1 million for the same period in the prior year.
At June 30, 2016 the allowance for loan losses was $14.7 million, compared with $14.3 million at December 31, 2015. The allowance for loan losses was 118.0% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2016, compared with 116.6% at December 31, 2015. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.22% at June 30, 2016, level with December 31, 2015.
Balance Sheet Activity
Assets totaled $1.683 billion at June 30, 2016 compared with $1.620 billion at December 31, 2015, an increase of $63.5 million, or 3.9%. The growth was due primarily to increases of $81.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $32.5 million in the loan portfolio, partially offset by a $44.5 million decrease in securities available for sale.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents can be attributed to the sale of available for sale securities and an increase in deposits, offset by an increase in total loans and the pay down of FHLB overnight advances.
The increase in total loans can be attributed to increases of $46.1 million in commercial mortgages and $0.4 million in residential mortgages, offset by decreases in indirect consumer of $6.3 million, other consumer of $4.8 million, and commercial and agriculture of $2.9 million.
The decrease in securities available for sale can be mostly attributed to the sale of $14.5 million in U.S. Treasuries and $35.2 million in maturities of agencies and pay-downs on mortgage-backed securities.
Deposits totaled $1.468 billion at June 30, 2016 compared with $1.400 billion at December 31, 2015, an increase of $67.6 million, or 4.8%. The growth was mostly attributable to increases of $64.4 million in money market accounts, $8.3 million in savings deposits, and $6.6 million in non-interest bearing demand deposits. Partially offsetting the increases noted above were decreases of $7.4 million in time deposits and $4.3 million in interest-bearing demand deposits. The changes in money market accounts and demand deposits can be attributed to the seasonal inflow of deposits from municipal clients.
Total equity was $144.2 million at June 30, 2016 compared with $137.2 million at December 31, 2015, an increase of $6.9 million, or 5.0%. The increase was primarily due to earnings of $5.1 million, a reduction of $0.8 million in treasury stock, and a decrease of $3.4 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss, offset by $2.4 million in dividends declared during the year.
The total equity to total assets ratio was 8.56% at June 30, 2016 compared with 8.47% at December 31, 2015. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 7.17% at June 30, 2016 compared with 6.99% at December 31, 2015. Book value per share increased to $30.27 at June 30, 2016 from $28.96 at December 31, 2015. As of June 30, 2016, the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under regulatory capital guidelines and the Corporation met capital requirements under regulatory guidelines.
Other Items
The market value of total assets under management or administration in our Wealth Management Group was $1.689 billion at June 30, 2016, including $305.4 million of assets under management or administration for the Corporation, compared with $1.856 billion at December 31, 2015, including $304.1 million of assets held under management or administration for the Corporation, a decrease of $166.7 million, or 9.0%. The decrease can be attributed to the loss of one large non-profit customer during the first quarter of 2016, along with a decline in the market value of assets.
As previously disclosed on June 2, 2016, the Corporation received approval from the State of Nevada for the creation of a new captive insurance subsidiary, the Captive, on May 31, 2016. The purpose of the Captive is to insure gaps in commercial coverage and uninsured exposures in the Corporation’s current insurance coverages and allow the Corporation to strengthen its overall risk management program. The Corporation recognized approximately $170 thousand in one-time expenses associated with the feasibility and implementation of the Captive during the first half of 2016 and will have annual costs of approximately $90 thousand associated with the on-going operations of the Captive. Beginning in fiscal year 2017, the Corporation expects to receive a potential net benefit of approximately $370 thousand associated with the insurance premium exclusion, for income tax purposes, provided to captive insurance companies. This net benefit will be reduced by claims submitted to the Captive.

Chemung Financial Corporation
GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)
The Corporation prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP; these financial statements appear on pages 5-6. That presentation provides the reader with an understanding of the Corporation’s results that can be tracked consistently from period-to-period and enables a comparison of the Corporation’s performance with other companies’ GAAP financial statements.
In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of its competitors. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
The SEC has adopted Regulation G, which applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” Under Regulation G, companies making public disclosures containing non-GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure and a statement of the Corporation’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure as part of its financial disclosures. The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” certain commonly used financial measures that are not based on GAAP. When these exempted measures are included in public disclosures, supplemental information is not required. The following measures used in this Report, which are commonly utilized by financial institutions, have not been specifically exempted by the SEC and may constitute "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the SEC's new rules, although we are unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.
Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income, Net Interest Margin, and Efficiency Ratio
Net interest income is commonly presented on a tax-equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component of the institution's net interest income, which is presented on a before-tax basis, is exempt from taxation (e.g., is received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added to the actual before-tax net interest income total. This adjustment is considered helpful in comparing one financial institution's net interest income to that of other institutions or in analyzing any institution’s net interest income trend line over time, to correct any analytical distortion that might otherwise arise from the fact that financial institutions vary widely in the proportions of their portfolios that are invested in tax-exempt securities, and that even a single institution may significantly alter over time the proportion of its own portfolio that is invested in tax-exempt obligations. Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, fully taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, as opposed to actual net interest income, again to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution and to better demonstrate a single institution’s performance over time. The Corporation follows these practices.
The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measures which represents the Corporation’s ability to turn resources into revenue and is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (fully taxable equivalent net interest income and non-interest income), adjusted for one-time occurrences and amortization. This measure is meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Tangible book value per share represents the Corporation’s equity divided by common shares at period-end. These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Adjustments for Certain Items of Income or Expense
In addition to disclosures of certain GAAP financial measures, including net income, EPS, ROA, and ROE, we may also provide comparative disclosures that adjust these GAAP financial measures for a particular period by removing from the calculation thereof the impact of certain transactions or other material items of income or expense occurring during the period, including certain nonrecurring items. The Corporation believes that the resulting non-GAAP financial measures may improve an understanding of its results of operations by separating out any such transactions or items that may have had a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Corporation’s financial results during the particular period in question. In the Corporation’s presentation of any such non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures not specifically discussed in the preceding paragraphs, the Corporation supplies the supplemental financial information and explanations required under Regulation G.
