ELMIRA, NY--(Marketwire - Jul 18, 2012) - Elmira Savings Bank (
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2012 totaled $1,358,000 or $.42 per diluted share compared to $1,308,000 or $.43 per diluted share for the same period in 2011. This represents a 4% or $50,000 increase in net income.
The decline in diluted earnings per share despite increases in net income is attributable to an increase in potentially dilutive shares resulting from the higher average market price of the Bank's common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same periods in 2011. The average share price for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $19.09 and $18.23 versus the average share price for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 of $15.18 and $15.50. This represents a $3.91 or 26% increase in the average share price for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and a $2.73 or 18% increase in the average share price for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same periods in 2011.
Net interest income was $7.5 million for the first six months of 2012 compared to $7.9 million for the same period last year. Noninterest income was $2.8 million compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2011. Operating expenses were $6.4 million for the first six months of 2012 compared to $6.1 million for the same period in 2011.
Total assets increased by $31.0 million from $499.7 million at June 30, 2011 to $530.7 million as of June 30, 2012. Total deposits were $365.6 million as of June 30, 2011 compared to $398.0 million as of June 30, 2012. This represents a $32.4 million or 9% increase. Total loans increased by $45.7 million or 14% from $320.1 million as of June 30, 2011 to $365.9 million as of June 30, 2012.
"During the first half of 2012, our mortgage and consumer loan production remained strong and above our expectations. This activity has allowed us to grow our loan portfolio, recognize increased levels of revenue from our secondary market activities, and avoid participating in the historically low yield investment market," said Michael P. Hosey, President and CEO. Hosey continued, "We continue to protect our net interest margin, monitor asset quality, and evaluate our capital needs and alternatives."
