MOUNT AIRY, NC--(Marketwired - July 27, 2015) - Surrey Bancorp (the "Company") (
For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, net income totaled $739,936 or $0.18 per fully diluted share, compared to $767,779 or $0.18 per fully diluted common share earned during the second quarter of 2014.
Earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2015, are approximately 3.6 percent lower than for the same period in 2014. The decrease in earnings results from a decrease in gains on the sale of government guaranteed loans. A gain of $127,362 was recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2014. No such gains occurred in the second quarter of 2015. Net interest income increased from $2,335,307 in the second quarter of 2014 to $2,437,301 in 2015. Most of this increase is due to loan growth. Average loans outstanding increased 4.3 percent from the second quarter of 2014 to the second quarter of 2015, or approximately $7,851,000. The net interest margin increased slightly from 4.09 percent to 4.10 percent from 2014 to 2015 due to lower deposit costs. Asset yields dropped from 4.69 percent in 2014 to 4.59 percent in 2015 but the reduction was offset by a reduction in the cost of funds. The cost of funds decreased from 0.66 percent in the second quarter of 2014 to 0.54 percent in the second quarter of 2015. The provision for loan loss reserves increased from $55,787 in the second quarter of 2014 to a provision of $70,298 in 2015. The increase in the provision is partially due to an increase in the historical loss component of the allowance for loan losses. The "lookback" period for calculating the historical component was lengthened. Noninterest income collectively increased 3.4 percent excluding the gains on the sale of government guaranteed loans in 2014. Increased revenue from fees on loans delivered to correspondents provided most of the increase. Noninterest expenses increased from $1,797,745 in the second quarter of 2014 to $1,837,382 in 2015, a 2.2% increase. Salary and employee benefits and professional fees accounted for the increase.
Loan loss reserves were $3,686,569 or 1.91 percent of total loans as of June 30, 2015. Non-performing assets were 0.78 percent of total assets at June 30, 2014, compared to 1.28 percent on that date in 2014. At June 30, 2015, the allowance for loan loss reserves equals 102 percent of impaired and non-performing assets, net of government guarantees.
Total assets were $253,079,571 as of June 30, 2015, an increase of 1.2 percent from $250,056,330 reported as of June 30, 2014. Total deposits were $207,433,069 at quarter-end 2015, a 2.0 percent increase from the $203,356,899 reported at the end of the second quarter of 2014. Net loans increased to $189,881,404, or 5.0 percent, compared to $180,910,373, at June 30, 2014.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was $1,468,370 or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to $1,444,179 or $0.35 per diluted share, for the same period in 2014.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report refers to the overhead efficiency ratio, which is computed by dividing non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe provides investors with important information regarding our operational efficiency. Comparison of our efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible, because other companies may calculate the efficiency ratio differently. Such information is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and should not be construed as such. Management believes such financial information is meaningful to the reader in understanding operating performance, but cautions that such information not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP. Surrey Bancorp, in referring to its net income, is referring to income under GAAP.
