SACRAMENTO, CA--(Marketwire - Jul 19, 2012) - American River Bankshares (
"While we're pleased with our increase in earnings and core deposits, reversing the trend in decreasing loans outstanding is our top priority," said David Taber, President and CEO of American River Bankshares. "We've made a number of organizational changes to make sure we have the right people in position, including making strategic new hires, to build a quality loan pipeline."

Northern California Economic Update
Management at American River Bank prepares a quarterly industry and economic report for internal use that analyzes the past five rolling quarters within the three markets in which the Company does business -- Sacramento, Sonoma and Amador Counties. In general, the data included in the report shows that economic indicators within these markets trended upwards through the end of 2011, moving the economy off of its low of the past few years. This trend dipped slightly in the first quarter of 2012, as noted in commercial real estate and employment, and showed mixed results in the second quarter. Activity in the residential market also showed an upward trend in the second quarter of 2012. Continued positive trends and ongoing tangible signs of sustained growth are required before management can determine the viability of the economic recovery in each of these regions.
Commercial Real Estate. In Sacramento County, office vacancy is 17.8%, equal to one year ago, but up slightly from 17.6% at December 31, 2012; retail vacancy is 9.9%, an improvement from 10.5% one year ago and slightly better than 10.0% at the end of 2011; and industrial vacancy is 11.9%, up from 11.4% one year ago but an improvement from 12.4% at December 31, 2012. In Sonoma County, office vacancies are 23.5%, up from 22.5% from one year ago; retail vacancies are 5.5% and have improved quarterly from 7.7% one year ago; and industrial vacancies are 15.0%, and have increased each quarter since 12.2% one year ago. In Sacramento, absorption of commercial real estate was mixed, showing positive for retail and industrial and a small negative for office; overall, absorption was a plus 841,000 square feet for quarter ending March 31, 2012. Sonoma County, after four consecutive quarters of positive absorption, has had negative absorption in each of the past two quarters. In all of our markets, commercial lease rates, after declining through the end of 2011, showed slight increases in the second quarter of 2012.
Residential Real Estate. Residential real estate data is focused on California and the markets we serve, and is easiest measured by tracking foreclosure activity (number of filings and the number of closed foreclosures) and in home sales (median prices and asking prices). Positive trends continue in residential foreclosure activity, noted in reductions in the number of Default and Sales notices. Statewide, for the second quarter of 2012 (annualized), the number of default is less than half of the number filed in 2009, is 30% lower than 2010, and is 15% lower than 2011. Notice of sale filings are down by similar percentages. After steady drops in asking prices and median sales prices through March 31, 2012, these numbers increased in all three of our markets. Although not large (by dollars), the aggregate median sales prices increased 18% in our markets, and asking prices increased by 11%. Also, in Sacramento as of the end of June, the number of homes listed for sale represents less than one month of inventory.
Employment. After an increase in unemployment to 11.5% in California in the first quarter of 2012, it dropped to 10.4% at June 30, 2012; state unemployment remains above the national average. At the end of May 2012, and compared to one year ago, all three of our markets improved; Sacramento unemployment rate was reported to be 10.4%, Sonoma was reported to be 8.3% and Amador was reported to be 11.8%. In addition, job growth in California has been positive for each of the past four quarters, averaging 56,750 new jobs each quarter.
Asset Quality and Balance Sheet Review
American River Bankshares' assets increased to $589.7 million at June 30, 2012, compared to $581.5 million at December 31, 2011, and $569.7 million at June 30, 2011.
Net loans totaled $277.6 million at June 30, 2012, down from $293.7 million at December 31, 2011 and down from $316.9 million at June 30, 2011, with a significant portion of the decline from one year ago related to a decrease in nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans decreased $11.6 million (52.0%) from $22.2 million at June 30, 2011 to $10.7 million at June 30, 2012. Nonperforming loans decreased $2.7 million (20.5%) from $13.4 million at December 31, 2011. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans and leases were 3.76% at June 30, 2012 compared to 4.46% at December 31, 2011 and 6.84% one year ago. The decrease in nonperforming loans was predominately the result of charge offs, payoffs and transfers to other real estate owned ("OREO").
The loan portfolio at June 30, 2012 included: real estate loans of $232.0 million (80% of the portfolio), commercial loans of $37.2 million (14% of the portfolio) and other loans, which consist mainly of leases and consumer loans of $14.8 million (6% of the portfolio). The real estate loan portfolio at June 30, 2012 includes: owner-occupied commercial real estate loans of $100.1 million (43% of the real estate portfolio), investor commercial real estate loans of $92.7 million (40% of the real estate portfolio), construction and land development loans of $10.2 million (4% of the real estate portfolio) and other loans, which consist of residential and multi-family real estate loans of $29.0 million (13% of the real estate loan portfolio).
NPAs include nonperforming loans and leases, other real estate owned, and repossessed assets. Nonperforming loans include all such loans and leases that are either placed on nonaccrual status or are 90 days past due as to principal or interest but still accrue interest because such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. NPAs declined to $21.0 million at June 30, 2012 from $21.7 million at year end 2011 and from $25.5 million at June 30, 2011. The NPAs to total assets ratio stood at 3.57% at the end of June of this year, down from 3.73% six months earlier and 4.47% one year ago.
Loans measured for impairment decreased to $29.6 million at the end of June 2012, compared to $30.1 million at December 31, 2011, and $38.1 million a year ago. Much of this decrease relates to resolution of these loans though pay off, charge-off, sale or transfer to OREO. The provision for loan and lease losses for the second quarter of 2012 was $375,000 compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2011. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2012 totaled $439,000 compared to $1.2 million in the second quarter of June 30, 2011.
The Company evaluates nonperforming loans, measures for impairment and assigns specific reserves when necessary. At June 30, 2012, specific reserves of $583,000 were recorded on nonperforming loans of $3.6 million that were considered impaired compared to $1.1 million on nonperforming loans of $7.8 million at December 31, 2011 and $560,000 on nonperforming loans of $4.9 million at June 30, 2011. In addition, there were 10 loans totaling $2.8 million, which are included in the $10.5 million of non-performing loans and leases, which have been modified and are considered troubled debt restructures at June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2011 there were sixteen loans totaling $7.8 million, which had been modified and were considered troubled debt restructures, which were also included in the nonperforming loan totals. All of the loans and leases considered troubled debt restructures have been evaluated for impairment.
At June 30, 2012, the Company had twenty OREO properties totaling $10.4 million. This compares to one mobile home and 21 properties totaling $8.2 million at December 31, 2011 and sixteen properties totaling $3.2 million at June 30, 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company sold two properties and a mobile home for a $39,000 net loss and added a single property with a fair value of $212,000.
The Company adjusted the balances on seven properties that had been obtained in prior quarters by $285,000 for which updated appraised values were received in the current quarter. Of this adjustment, $216,000 was charged to OREO expense, $45,000 was an adjustment to receivables, and $24,000 was charged to the allowance for loan and lease loss. At June 30, 2012 the OREO valuation allowance totaled $70,000. This compares to a valuation allowance of $56,000 at December 31, 2011 and $68,000 at June 30, 2011.
Investment securities, which includes stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("FHLB Stock"), totaled $228.1 million at June 30, 2012, up $12.3 million or 6% from $215.8 million at December 31, 2011 and up $54.2 million or 31% from $173.9 million at June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2012, the investment portfolio was comprised of 85% in mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, 13% in obligations of states and political subdivisions and 2% in FHLB stock and corporate bonds.
At June 30, 2012, total deposits were $475.6 million, compared to $462.3 million at December 31, 2011 and $455.3 million one year ago. Core deposits grew 6% to $373.6 million at June 30, 2012 from $353.0 million at June 30, 2011 and 2% from $364.6 million at December 31, 2011. The Company considers all deposits except time deposits as core deposits.
At June 30, 2012, noninterest-bearing demand deposits accounted for 29% of total deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts were 11%, savings deposits were 11%, money market balances accounted for 28% and time certificates were 21% of total deposits. At June 30, 2011, noninterest-bearing demand deposits accounted for 28% of total deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts were 10%, savings deposits were 10%, money market balances accounted for 30% and time certificates were 22% of total deposits.
Shareholders' equity increased to $92.3 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $91.2 million at June 30, 2011 but decreased from $94.1 million at December 31, 2011. The increase from June 30, 2011 was driven by an increase in the unrealized gain on securities of $2.0 million and net income of $3.6 million that was partially offset by $4.2 million in reduction of common stock primarily due to shares of common stock repurchased under the Company's 2012 Stock Repurchase Program (the "Repurchase Program"). The decrease in equity from December 31, 2011 was also related to the repurchases made under the Repurchase Program. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company repurchased 430,360 shares of its common stock under the Repurchase Program bringing the year to date total to 575,389 shares of common stock repurchased.
Net Interest Income
Second quarter 2012 net interest income was down 15% to $4.8 million from $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, net interest income decreased 10% to $9.9 million from $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The net interest margin as a percentage of average earning assets was 3.93% in the second quarter of 2012, compared to 4.01% in the prior quarter and 4.58% in the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the net interest margin was 3.97% compared to 4.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Interest income for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 16% to $5.3 million from $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, interest income decreased 12% to $10.8 million from $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 29% to $482,000 from $678,000 for the second quarter of 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased 30% to $984,000 from $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
The average yield on earning assets declined from 5.13% in the second quarter of 2011 to 4.31% for the second quarter of 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, declined to 4.36% from 4.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Much of the decline in yields can be attributed to the overall lower interest rate environment, a decrease in average loans and an increase in average balances of lower yielding investment securities. Although the foregone interest on nonaccrual loans decreased in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011, it continues to have an impact on the net interest margin. During the second quarter of 2012, foregone interest income on nonaccrual loans was approximately $200,000, compared to foregone interest of $465,000 during the second quarter of 2011. The foregone interest had a 16 basis point negative impact on the yield on earning assets during the second quarter of 2012 compared to a 37 basis point negative impact during the second quarter of 2011.
The average balance of earning assets increased slightly from $502.5 million in the second quarter of 2011 to $503.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased 0.6% to $506.9 million from $503.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. While the increase in average earning assets was minimal, there was a significant change in the mix of the assets as principal reductions from loan paydowns were invested into lower yielding investment securities. This mix change contributed to the decrease in the yield on earning assets mentioned above.
When compared to the second quarter of 2011, average loan balances were down 12% to $287.9 million for the second quarter of 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 also decreased 12% to $292.5 million. Although the Company has continued to generate new loans, the production of new loans has not kept pace with loan payoffs. Compared to the second quarter of 2011, average investment securities were up 24% to $215.9 million during the second quarter of 2012.
The Company experienced a 2% increase in average deposits from $459.1 million during the second quarter of 2011 to $468.4 million during the second quarter of 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, increased 1% to $467.1 from $462.6 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Average borrowings decreased slightly from $14.5 million during the second quarter of 2011 to $14.0 million during the second quarter of 2012 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, decreased slightly to $14.8 million from $14.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Noninterest Income and Expense
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2012 was up 53% to $694,000 from $454,000 in the second quarter of 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was up 56% to $1.4 million from $887,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in noninterest income on a quarter over quarter basis was primarily related to an increase in income from OREO properties, which was $229,000 as compared to none in the second quarter of 2011. On a year to date basis, the increase relates to increased OREO income and gains on sale of investment securities. Income from OREO properties was $392,000 in 2012 compared to none in 2011 and gains on sale of securities were $75,000 in 2012 and $27,000 in 2011. The increase in OREO property income was from rents received from foreclosed office buildings.
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2012 was down 4.0% to $4.1 million from $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2011 and was $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. While the total expense did not change significantly from period to period, OREO related expense decreased approximately 8% or $40,000 from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012 but increased 19% or $133,000 for the first six months in 2012 compared to the first six months in 2011. The Company experienced decreases in FDIC insurance expense of 72% or $101,000 from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2012 and 48% or $257,000 for the first six months in 2011 to the first six months in 2012.
The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2012 increased to 71.3% from 66.8% for the second quarter of 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, increased to 70.8% from 68.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The primary reason for the increase in the efficiency ratio is driven by the reduction of net interest income.
