Increased Earnings for Capital Bank Corporation
RALEIGH, N.C. - July 20, 2005 - Capital Bank Corporation (Nasdaq: CBKN), the
parent company of Capital Bank, today reported that its second quarter 2005 net
income increased approximately 80% to $1,603,000 compared to $891,000 for the
second quarter of 2004. Fully diluted earnings per share were $.23 for the
second quarter of 2005 versus $.13 for the second quarter of 2004. For the six
months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, fully diluted earnings per share were $.46
and $.33, respectively.
"We are pleased with the profit results and asset growth for the second quarter
of 2005. The earnings are a testament to our company-wide focus on maintaining a
sound credit culture and core deposit growth," stated B. Grant Yarber, President
and Chief Executive Officer. "By remaining committed to improving our deposit
mix while engaging in high quality lending, our margin continues to increase.
Meanwhile, continued overall improvement in the loan portfolio has resulted in
lower reserve levels."
Net interest income increased by approximately $929,000 during the second
quarter of 2005 compared to 2004. Net interest income totaled approximately
$7,160,000 during the second quarter, representing a net interest margin of
3.55% on a tax equivalent basis. The Company's net interest margin, on a tax
equivalent basis, remained relatively constant during the second quarter despite
market pressures leading to margin compression. The Company continues to
concentrate on increasing its margin through core deposit growth and competitive
loan pricing.
The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $(156,000)
compared to $297,000 for the second quarter of 2004. Annualized net charge-offs
for the second quarter of 2005 were 0.09% of average loans compared to 0.06% and
0.06% for the first quarter of 2005 and second quarter of 2004, respectively.
The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at June 30, 2005
was 1.55%. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005
and June 30, 2004 were $(406,000) and $413,000, respectively.
The Company's non-interest income for the second quarter of 2005 increased
slightly during the second quarter compared to the second quarter 2004.
Non-interest income was $1,579,000 for the second quarter of 2005 compared to
$1,544,000 in the second quarter of 2004. For the six months ended June 30,
2005, non-interest income was $2,919,000 compared to $3,145,000 for the first
six months of 2004. Mortgage banking revenue for the second quarter of 2005
increased to its highest level since 2003.
Non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2005 was $6,489,000 compared to
$6,150,000 in the first quarter of 2005. Increases were primarily attributable
to additional personnel expense and severance payments.
Total deposits increased by $27.8 million during the second quarter reaching
$690.0 million at June 30, 2005. Demand account balances increased $17.0 million
while savings and money market accounts
6
increased $15.0 million. Consistent with our effort to continue improvement in
the net interest margin, certain time deposits maturing during the quarter were
not retained as they matured. Total consolidated assets on June 30, 2005 were
$917.4 million compared to $882.3 million at the end of 2004.
Loans outstanding during the quarter increased by $844,000 from March 31, 2005
balances. Loan demand continues to be strong, and loan balances are anticipated
to rise during the second half of 2005. The Company continues to be well
capitalized under regulatory capital guidelines.
