Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Forward-Looking Statements. This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other portions of this report include forward-looking statements such as: statements of the Company’s goals, intentions, and expectations; estimates of risks and of future costs and benefits; assessments of loan quality, and probable loan losses, liquidity, and interest risk; and statements of the Company’s ability to achieve financial and other goals. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties because they are based upon: the amount and timing of future changes in interest rates, market behaviors, and other economic conditions; future laws and regulations; and a variety of other matters. Because of these uncertainties, the actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. In addition, the Company’s past growth and performance do not necessarily indicate its future results.
Harbor Bankshares Corporation’s earnings for the first quarter of 2006 totaled $447 thousand, reflecting an increase of $153 thousand or 52.0 percent when compared to the first quarter of 2005. For the first quarter of 2006, the annualized return on average assets (ROAA) and average stockholders equity (ROAE) were .70 percent and 10.64 percent respectively, compared to .50 percent and 7.29 percent respectively achieved during the first quarter of 2005.
For the first quarter of 2006, net interest income increased by $113 thousand or 4.2 percent. Interest and fees on loans increased by $610 thousand or 19.3 percent as a result of the growth in the portfolio and rate increases. Investment income decreased by $12 thousand or 5.5 percent. Interest on Federal Funds sold increased by $125 thousand or 480.7 percent. Interest expense increased by $603 thousand or 81.2 percent. Interest on time deposits increased by $228 thousand or 62.4 percent. Interest expense on saving accounts increased by $346 thousand or 131.5 percent. Although, deposits as of March 31, 2006 decreased when compared to December 31, 2005, higher interest rates led to an overall interest expense increase in deposits. The interest expense of borrowed funds for the quarter was $1 thousand. The interest expense for the junior subordinated debentures increased by $33 thousand or 34.0 percent due to higher interest rates, since the debentures are tied to floating rates.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the provision for loan losses was $55 thousand compared to $120 thousand for the same period of 2005. Charge-offs totaled $10 thousand reflecting a decrease of $3 thousand when compared to the $13 thousand charged-off during the same period for 2005. Recoveries for the period were $2 thousand, compared to $38 thousand recovered during the first quarter of 2005.
Future provisions for loan losses will continue to be based upon our assessment of the overall loan portfolio and its underlying collateral, the mix of loans within the portfolio, delinquency trends, economic conditions, current and prospective trends in real estate values, and other relevant factors under our allowance methodology.
Our allowance for loan loss methodology is a loan classification-based system. We base the required allowance on a percentage of the loan balance for each type of loan classification level. Allowance percentages are based on each individual lending program, its loss history and underwriting characteristics including loan value, credit score, debt coverage, collateral, and capacity to service debt.
This analysis is used to validate the loan loss reserve matrix as well as assist in establishing overall lending direction. In Management’s opinion, the allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2006 is adequate. There
