S.Y. Bancorp Announces Third Quarter Earnings

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 21, 2009--S.Y. Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:SYBT), parent company of Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company, with offices in the Louisville metropolitan area, Indianapolis and Cincinnati, today reported financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009. Continuing trends seen earlier in the year, the Company's third quarter earnings reflected solid operating fundamentals, particularly ongoing loan growth and a strong pipeline of loans to close in coming months, as well as continued growth in deposits. Although earnings were lower for the current-year periods, primarily reflecting increased provisions for loan losses and net interest margin erosion, S.Y Bancorp has remained solidly profitable in 2009. A summary of results for the third quarter and nine-month period follows:

Quarter Ended September 30,		2009			2008		Change
Net income	$	4,399,000		$	5,443,000		-19	%
Net income per share, diluted	$	0.32		$	0.40		-20	%
Return on average equity		11.48	%		15.84	%
Return on average assets		0.99	%		1.31	%
Nine months Ended September 30,		2009			2008		Change
Net income	$	13,424,000		$	16,610,000		-19	%
Net income per share, diluted	$	0.98		$	1.22		-20	%
Return on average equity		12.04	%		16.50	%
Return on average assets		1.06	%		1.43	%

Commenting on the Company's results, David Heintzman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are gratified to see ongoing strength in our business during what clearly continues to be challenging times for the banking industry. Following a strong start to our lending activities earlier this year, we saw the pace accelerate in September after a summer lull, with a very encouraging increase in number of loan opportunities that we have been able to evaluate. Much of this recent activity involves middle-market business customers, reflecting in part the upheaval associated with recent merger activity among the larger regional banks in our markets, especially in Louisville, as well as the impact of our expansion efforts in Indianapolis and Cincinnati. We also continue to see solid deposit growth against a very competitive backdrop, some of which has accompanied the new lending relationships we have established. Additionally, the performance of our investment management and trust operations, which is tied closely to the stock market's performance, has begun to stabilize as the market continues to recover from the severe downturn of the past year. Lastly, our mortgage banking division continues to contribute higher levels of income compared with last year, as prevailing interest rates remain relatively low. These factors bode well for the Company's outlook.

"Looking at credit quality and the potential risk in our loan portfolio, our views are more cautious because of the continuing pressures exerted on borrowers by this recession," Heintzman added. "While we have been fortunate to avoid significant losses in our portfolio, we anticipate that prolonged economic stress could set the stage for further loan and collateral problems. There is no clear sign that declines in real estate values or occupancy rates have begun to level off, and business profits are generally lower. Moreover, the financial capacity of our borrowers and guarantors that traditionally has provided an extra layer of security for many loans, while somewhat stabilized, remains fragile. It is for these reasons that we remain diligent in our underwriting standards, credit administration, risk assessment process and collection efforts, and we continue to strengthen the level of our allowance for loan losses for what could still be a rough road ahead."

Concluding, Heintzman said, "We believe the market dislocation we are seeing now in Louisville and Cincinnati will continue to gain momentum as the financial difficulties and integration problems affecting many large regional banks begin to translate into service issues that further disenfranchise good customers, spreading first among commercial accounts and then eventually reaching the ranks of retail customers. As this process unfolds, we believe businesses both small and large will come to see the real value of a healthy, two-way banking relationship that can ride out the tough times. That's the philosophy that has worked for Stock Yards Bank & Trust for more than a century, one that we think helps us weather the current recession and positions us for continued growth as banking returns to being a relationship business."

In the third quarter of 2009, the Company's capital levels remained significantly in excess of what is required to be considered "well-capitalized" under regulatory standards – the highest capital rating for financial institutions. The Company's Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and total risk-based capital ratio at September 30, 2009, were 10.22%, 11.68% and 13.57%, respectively, all exceeding the required minimums of 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively, to be deemed a well-capitalized institution. The ratio of tangible common equity to total tangible assets (both non-GAAP measures – see reconciliation to closest GAAP measures later in this release) stood at 8.66% of total assets as of September 30, 2009, up from 8.36% at September 30, 2008, and 8.52% at June 30, 2009. The Company provides this ratio, in addition to those defined by banking regulators, because of its widespread use by investors as a means to evaluate capital adequacy, as it reflects the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions.

S.Y. Bancorp's total assets increased 7% to $1.764 billion at September 30, 2009, from $1.653 billion at September 30, 2008, and were up 1% from $1.747 billion at June 30, 2009. Similarly, the Company's loan portfolio rose 7% to $1.412 billion at September 30, 2009, from $1.317 billion at September 30, 2008, and was 1% higher versus $1.399 billion at June 30, 2009. Deposits increased 8% to $1.362 billion at September 30, 2009, compared with $1.266 billion a year ago, and were up 2% from $1.337 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2009.

Ongoing loan growth helped offset a decline in net interest margin for the third quarter of 2009 and, as a result, net interest income – the Company's largest source of revenue – increased $252,000 or 2% in the third quarter of 2009 compared with the year-earlier period. In the third quarter of 2009, net interest margin fell 21 basis points year over year to 3.57% from 3.78% in the third quarter of 2008, and was down nine basis points from the second quarter of 2009. The decline in net interest margin from the third quarter of 2008 reflects lower prevailing interest rates over the past year and the impact of maintaining a significantly higher liquidity position in 2009, which management considers prudent given the current operating environment, as well as higher interest expense in the current year related to the Company's December 2008 issuance of trust preferred securities. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter of 2009 largely was due to the effects of maintaining a higher liquidity position, which were partially offset by lower rates on time deposits. For the first nine months of 2009, net interest income increased $1,001,000 or 2% compared with the prior-year period. Net interest margin for the first nine months of 2009 was down 27 basis points to 3.67% from 3.94% a year ago.

Non-performing loans increased to $8,704,000 at September 30, 2009, or 0.62% of total period-end loans outstanding, from $3,940,000 at September 30, 2008, or 0.30% of loans outstanding at the end of the prior-year quarter, reflecting worsening economic pressures over the past year. On a linked-quarter basis, non-performing loans declined slightly from $8,820,000 at June 30, 2009, or 0.63% of period-end loans. Non-performing assets, which include non-performing loans, other real estate owned and repossessed assets, reflected similar trends, increasing to $10,641,000, or 0.60% of total assets at September 30, 2009, versus $7,122,000, or 0.43% of total assets at the end of the year-earlier quarter, and $10,440,000, or 0.60% of total assets at June 30, 2009. At current levels, the relative amount of non-performing loans and non-performing assets is at or slightly above the historic range for these metrics during the past five years, yet remains substantially below industry averages. Net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2009 totaled $713,000, or 0.05% of average loans compared with $571,000, or 0.04% of average loans in the year-earlier quarter, down from $1,331,000, or 0.10% of average loans in the second quarter of 2009.

The Company increased its loan loss provision for the third quarter of 2009 to $3,475,000 from $900,000 in the year-earlier period and from $2,200,000 in the second quarter of 2009. Management's actions to increase the allowance for loan losses in 2009 reflect a concern that, with each passing quarter, a prolonged recession will likely begin to take a greater toll on the Company's loan portfolio and underlying collateral values, extending its impact further to lending relationships that have to date been unaffected. The increased provision reflects an allowance methodology that is driven by risk ratings; most notably, recent downgrades of three larger relationships indicated the need to increase the allowance for loan losses. These loans are still performing, and management does not consider them impaired. Since the Company has no visibility on how long the effects of the current recession will continue or when business conditions will begin to improve, S.Y. Bancorp intends to continue with its historically conservative stance toward credit quality, remaining cautious in assessing the potential risk in the loan portfolio. The Company's allowance for loan losses was 1.40% of total loans at September 30, 2009, up from 1.12% at September 30, 2008, and 1.22% at June 30, 2009.

Because of a relatively low level of foreclosed assets, the Company thus far has been able to approach collateral sales in an orderly fashion to minimize losses. Should market conditions worsen and foreclosed assets increase significantly, this flexibility may be reduced, and management may be forced to liquidate problem loans more rapidly, thus increasing the possibility of larger losses.

Non-interest income increased $1,596,000 or 24% in the third quarter compared with the same quarter last year, largely reflecting losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities in the third quarter last year that did not recur this year, increased gains on the sale of mortgage loans, and higher other non-interest income mainly related to realized and unrealized gains of an investment in a domestic private equity fund recorded using the equity method of accounting. These were offset partially by a continued decline in investment management and trust services income, which represents the largest component of non-interest income. Even though the decline began to show signs of moderation in the third quarter, investment management and trust services income fell $152,000 or 5% since these fees largely track the securities market and the stock market remains below last year's level. Non-interest income increased $1,087,000 or 5% in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the year-earlier period, reflecting an increase in other non-interest income, including gains on sales of mortgage loans, which more than offset a decline in investment management and trust services.

Non-interest expense increased $1,077,000 or 9% in the third quarter of 2009 versus the same period last year. Higher non-interest expense for the quarter was due primarily to an increase of $689,000 or 10% in salaries and employee benefits expense, reflecting the creation of several new management-level positions during the past year and higher health insurance expense. Higher FDIC insurance premiums also contributed to increased non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2009. Non-interest expense rose $2,974,000 or 8% in the first nine months of 2009 compared with the year-earlier period largely due to an increase of $1,698,000 of FDIC insurance expense, including the second quarter 2009 special assessment, and higher salaries and employee benefits expense. The Company's third quarter efficiency ratio was 56.26% compared with 56.10% in the third quarter of 2008 and 58.93% for the first nine months of 2009 compared with 56.27% in the year-earlier period.

In August, S.Y. Bancorp's Board of Directors declared its regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share. The latest dividend was distributed on October 1, 2009, to stockholders of record as of September 14, 2009.
