HAMMOND, LA--(Marketwire - January 27, 2010) - FPB Financial Corp. (
Net income available to common shareholders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009 increased to $410,000 ($1.12 per diluted common share) compared to a loss of $1.6 million ($4.47 per diluted common share) in the 2008 period. Net income available to common shareholders for the year increased to $1.9 million ($5.27 per diluted common share) as compared to a loss of $658,000 ($1.86 per diluted common share) in 2008. If a pre-tax 2009 third quarter gain on sale of real estate of $514,000 was eliminated, net income available to common shareholders for 2009 would be revised to $1.6 million.
Earnings for the quarter were positively affected by an increase in non-interest income, an improved net-interest margin which resulted in a quarterly increase of $285,000 in net interest income and a $249,000 decrease in non-interest expense. Net income was adversely affected by a $30,000 increase in provision for loan losses compared to the 2008 quarterly period.
Non-interest income increased by $1.9 million in the December 2009 quarter, primarily due to no investment impairment charges this period and a reduced loss on investment trading accounts. Also having a positive effect on non-interest income was a net gain of $98,000 or 117.1% in mortgage banking revenue, and an $18,000 or 7.5% increase in deposit service charges as compared to the fourth quarter of 2008.
Net interest income increased by $285,000 or 17.5% for the quarter, primarily due to a $301,000 or 30.9% decrease in interest expense for the three month period.
Non-interest expense decreased 13.3% or $249,000 for the quarter, primarily due to decreased expense in technology and information processing, compensation and employee benefits and other expenses.
Net loan charge-offs increased 22.5% to $120,000 while provisions for loan losses increased 13.0% to $260,000 for the quarterly period as compared to 2008. Non-performing assets increased $297,000 or 21.6% to $1.7 million. Allowance for loan losses increased $460,000 or 26.6% to $2.2 million. Troubled debt restructured that is performing at December 31, 2009 totaled $2.4 million. The Company had no troubled debt restructured at December 31, 2008.
Total assets at year-end decreased 6.5% to $165.1 million as compared to December 31, 2008, primarily due to a $10.8 million decline in investment and mortgage-backed securities. Total deposits declined $12.9 million, primarily through a reduction in time deposit accounts. Non-maturity transaction/saving deposit accounts increased $6.3 million or 8.8%.
Total stockholders' equity increased $4.2 million or 36.7% to $15.7 million at December 31, 2009, when compared to December 31, 2008, primarily due the January 23, 2009 issuance of $3.2 million of Series A and $162,000 of Series B Perpetual Preferred Stock to the U.S. Treasury from the Treasury's Capital Purchase Program (CPP). The Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock outstanding was reduced in December 2009 by $1.0 million from $3.2 million to a December 31, 2009 total of $2.2 million. Total tangible common equity increased $2.0 million or 17.3% to $13.5 million, primarily due to an increase in retained earnings of $1.6 million.
Our subsidiary, Florida Parishes Bank, is considered "well capitalized" by all applicable federal banking regulations and definitions as of December 31, 2009.
