Unity Bancorp Reports 29.2% increase in Fourth Quarter Earnings
Clinton, NJ - Unity Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTY), parent company of Unity Bank, reported net income of $1.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, a 29.2% increase compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Return on average assets and average common equity for the fourth quarter of 2005 were 1.16% and 17.62%, respectively, as compared to 1.08% and 15.53%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2004.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, net income was $6.2 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, a 16.5% increase from net income of $5.3 million, or $0.83 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. Return on average assets and average common equity for the year ended December 31, 2005, were 1.10% and 16.29%, respectively, as compared to 1.10% and 16.32%, respectively, from the prior year period.
“The year was marked by strong loan and deposit growth and stable margins, which resulted in our fourth year of record earnings,” said Unity President and Chief Executive Officer, James A. Hughes. “We are extremely pleased with operating results and continue to remain optimistic about future earnings growth.”
Net interest income was $6.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2005, a 17.8% increase compared to a year ago. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an increase in interest-earning assets partially offset by a slight decrease in net interest margin. Net interest margin was 4.20% for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to 4.26% for the fourth quarter of 2004. Year over year,
net interest income increased $3.1 million or 16.1 percent to $22.2 million due to an increase in interest-earning assets and a relatively stable net interest margin at 4.17 percent compared to 4.18 percent the prior year.
The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $525 thousand, compared to $350 thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. The increase in the provision was primarily due to the increase in the loan portfolio. Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 were $191 thousand, compared to net-charge offs of $220 thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. For the year-ended December 31, 2005, the provision for loan losses increased $675 thousand to $1.9 million compared to $1.2 million in 2004. This increase was due to higher levels of non-performing loans and higher net charge-offs compared to the prior year.
Total non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $2.1 million, up 10.9% from the same period a year ago. Service charges on deposits for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased 28.6% compared to the fourth quarter of 2004 due to an increase in the volume of overdraft charges. Service and loan fees for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased 17.4% from a year ago due to an increase in loan servicing income and loan fees. Gains on sales of SBA loans amounted to $878 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $862 thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Other income for the fourth quarter of 2005 decreased due primarily to lower loan referral fees. For the year-ended December 31, 2005, non-interest income increased $561 thousand or 7.4 percent to $8.2 million due primarily to increased service and loan fees, Mortgage loan gains and service charges on deposits, offset in part by lower gains on sales of SBA loans.
Total non-interest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2005 were $4.8 million, an increase of 7.9% from the prior year’s comparable quarter. The increase from the prior year’s comparable quarter was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits, processing and communications, furniture and equipment, occupancy expense, professional fees and other expenses. Compensation and benefits increased 17.5%, due to increased head count, merit increases and rising health insurance costs. Processing and communications increased 6.2% due to increased transactional volume. Furniture and equipment and occupancy costs increased 13.2% and 18.6% respectively, due to the addition of a new branch and the refurbishment of the branch network. Other expense increased 40.1% due to increased insurance and training and recruiting expenses. Loan servicing costs declined 86.7% due to the collection of expenses on delinquent loans. Advertising decreased 51.3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2004 due to a large marketing campaign in the fourth quarter of 2004. For the year-ended December 31, 2005, non-interest expense increased $1.4 million or 8.4 percent to $18.7 million due primarily to increased compensation and benefits, furniture and fixtures, occupancy and processing and communications, offset in part by lower loan servicing fees and professional fees.
Total assets at December 31, 2005 were $614.2 million, a 19.2% increase from a year ago. The increase in assets from the prior year was primarily due to growth in the Company’s loan portfolio and federal funds sold. Total loans at December 31, 2005 were $448.6 million, a 20.1% increase from December 31, 2004. The growth in the loan portfolio occurred in all areas of lending. Commercial loans increased $52.8 million, or 25.4%, SBA loans increased $15.5 million, or 24.6%, residential mortgage loans increased $1.8 million, or 3.0% and consumer loans increased $4.9 million, or 11.5%. Included in loan balances are approximately $16.0 million in total loans acquired as part of the fourth quarter acquisition of the Phillipsburg branch.
“During the quarter we successfully integrated the acquisition of our Phillipsburg, New Jersey location, which was purchased from interState Net Bank. The acquisition added approximately $16 million in loans and $21 million in related deposits.” said Mr. Hughes.
At December 31, 2005, the allowance for loan losses was $6.9 million, or 1.54% of total loans, compared to 1.57% a year ago. Non-performing assets at December 31, 2005 were $4.5 million, up $100 thousand from a year ago. There were no loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing as of December 31, 2005.
Total deposits at December 31, 2005 were $521.9 million, a 20.3% increase from December 31, 2004. This increase was primarily the result of growth in savings accounts and time deposits, partially offset by the decline in interest bearing checking accounts and demand deposits. Savings accounts increased $62.4 million, or 78.4% from December 31, 2004 due to a high yield savings product. Time deposits increased $55.2 million, or 52.1%, from December 31, 2004. Included in the increase in deposits are approximately $21 million in deposits related to the fourth quarter acquisition of the Phillipsburg branch.
Total shareholders’ equity was $40.9 million at December 31, 2005, a 14.1% increase from the prior year. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to retained profits partially offset by the payment of cash dividends and a decline in other comprehensive income.
As of December 31, 2005, the Company’s Tier I leverage ratio was 8.48%, Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 10.26%, and total risk-based capital ratio was 11.51%. All regulatory capital ratios exceed the well-capitalized federal capital adequacy requirements as of December 31, 2005.
