Millersburg, Ohio – October 23, 2017 – CSB Bancorp, Inc. (OTC Pink: CSBB) today announced third quarter 2017 net income of $1,866,000, or $.68 per basic and diluted share, as compared to $1,694,000, or $.61 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2016. For the nine month period ended June 30, 2017 net income totaled $5,322,000, compared to $4,785,000 for the same period last year an increase of 11%.
Annualized returns on average common equity (“ROE”) and average assets (“ROA”) for the quarter were 10.62% and 1.05%, respectively, compared with 10.29% and 1.03% for the third quarter of 2016.
Eddie Steiner, President and CEO stated, “Loan and deposit balances continued to grow at a fairly steady pace through the third quarter. Net interest margin, compared to the same quarter in the prior year, improved for the seventh consecutive quarter.”
Revenue, on a fully-taxable equivalent basis, totaled $7.4 million during the quarter, a 10% increase from the prior-year third quarter. Net interest income increased $707 thousand, or 13%, in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016. Loan interest income including fees increased $865 thousand during third quarter 2017 as compared to the same quarter in 2016. This increase was driven partially by an increase in average loan volume of $48 million across all categories of loans as well as in increase of 25 basis points in loan yield. The net interest margin of 3.77% compared favorably to 3.61% for third quarter 2016.
Noninterest income declined by $41 thousand, or 4%, in the third quarter of 2017 compared to 2016. The decrease reflects a $91 thousand drop in trust and brokerage fees a result of broker and administrative changes within the unit. The decrease in other income was partially offset by growth in cash surrender value of life insurance, debit card fee income, and gain on sale of loans.
Noninterest expense amounted to $4.3 million during the quarter, an increase of $292 thousand, or 7%, from third quarter 2016. Salary and employee benefits rose $212 thousand, or 9%, on a quarter over prior year quarter with increases in salary, healthcare, and employment taxes. The Company’s third quarter efficiency ratio was 57.9% as compared to 59.2% for the same quarter in the prior year.
Federal income tax provision totaled $826 thousand in third quarter 2017, compared to $740 thousand for the same quarter in 2016 reflecting an increased effective tax rate in 2017 from an increase in taxable income.
Average total assets during the quarter amounted to $702 million, an increase of $48 million, or 7%, above the same quarter of the prior year. Average loan balances of $505 million increased $48 million, or 11%, from the prior year third quarter while average securities balances of $132 million decreased $13 million, or 9%, as compared to third quarter 2016.
Average commercial loan balances for the quarter, including commercial real estate, increased $28 million, or 9%, from prior year levels. Average residential mortgage balances increased $15 million, or 16%, over the prior year’s quarter. Average home equity balances increased $1 million, or 3%, and average consumer credit balances increased $4 million, or 28%, versus the same quarter of the prior year.
Delinquent loan balances as of September 30, 2017 amounted to 1.22% of total loans as compared to 0.82% at September 30, 2016. Nonperforming assets totaled $4.9 million, or 0.97%, of total loans plus other real estate, an increase of $2 million over September 30, 2016. The increase in nonperforming loans year over year is primarily due to two lending relationships comprised of several loans. The allowance for loan losses amounted to 1.07% of total loans on September 30, 2017 as compared to 1.08% at September 30, 2016.
Net loan losses recognized during third quarter 2017 were $1.1 million, or 0.89% annualized, compared to third quarter 2016 net loan losses of $318 thousand.
Average deposit balances for third quarter 2017 totaled $559 million, an increase of $39 million, or 8%, from the prior year’s third quarter. Within the deposit category, average noninterest-bearing account balances for the third quarter increased by $39 million, or 8%, above the same period in the prior year. Average interest-bearing checking, money market, and traditional savings balances increased $11 million, or 7%, from year ago levels, while average time deposit balances decreased $4 million, or 4%, from third quarter 2016. In addition to the changes in average deposit balances, the average balance of securities sold under repurchase agreement during the third quarter of 2017 decreased by $4 million, or 8%, compared to the average for the same period in the prior year. Repurchase agreements, while considered short-term borrowings, are primarily tied to overnight customer sweep accounts.

The tangible equity to assets ratio amounted to 9.2% on September 30, 2017 and 9.3% on September 30, 2016.
