CFS Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: CITZ), the parent of Citizens Financial Bank, today reported net income of $1.3 million, or $.12 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012, an increase from net income of $394,000, or $.04 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2011. The Company's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $3.1 million, or $.29 per diluted share, an increase from net income of $2.1 million, or $.20 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Financial results for the quarter include:

  • Non-performing assets decreased $17.1 million, or 24.0%, to $54.0 million at September 30, 2012 from $71.1 million at June 30, 2012;
  • Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2012 totaled $863,000, stable with $856,000 for the second quarter of 2012 and a decrease from $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2011;
  • Loans receivable decreased $9.7 million to $703.9 million from June 30, 2012 primarily due to decreases in commercial real estate owner occupied and non-owner occupied loans, including $5.8 million of transfers to other real estate owned, which were partially offset by an increase in commercial and industrial loans;
  • Core deposits increased to 63.3% of total deposits compared to 62.5% and 60.5% of total deposits at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively;
  • Net interest margin increased to 3.47% during the third quarter of 2012 from 3.42% in the second quarter of 2012 and 3.39% in the third quarter of 2011;
  • The Company's common shareholders' equity to total assets ratio increased to 9.66% at September 30, 2012 compared to 9.24% at June 30, 2012 and 8.99% at December 31, 2011; and
  • The Bank's Tier 1 core capital ratio increased to 8.85% at September 30, 2012 compared to 8.56% at June 30, 2012 and 8.26% at December 31, 2011, and the total risk-based capital ratio increased to 13.82% from 13.35% at June 30, 2012 and 12.65% at December 31, 2011.

Chief Executive Officer's Comments

"I am pleased to report a significant 24% reduction in our level of non-performing assets as well as another quarter of profitability. Our diligent problem asset resolution efforts are producing the results we have anticipated," said Daryl D. Pomranke, Chief Executive Officer. "Our decision to continue resolving individual credits by working with our clients, utilizing A/B-Note structures as appropriate, and pursuing individual sales of other real estate owned, while taking longer to complete, has, we believe, produced better outcomes than pursuing a bulk sale strategy. We expect to make additional progress in reducing non-performing assets through the remainder of 2012 and into 2013."

"The execution of our strategies to reduce non-performing assets, diversify revenue sources, and reduce non-interest expense is yielding more positive outcomes. As a result, our third quarter and year-to-date pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, as adjusted, reflect solid increases over comparable prior periods. We continue to look to our strategies for opportunities for additional improvements," added Pomranke.

Update on Strategic Growth and Diversification Plan

We continue to focus on reducing the level of non-performing loans. Our ratio of non-performing loans to total loans decreased to 5.19% at September 30, 2012 from 7.27% at June 30, 2012, primarily due to transfers back to accrual status of $9.8 million of commercial real estate loans that were restructured and performing for at least six months, a $1.7 million paydown of a non-performing commercial participation loan, and $5.6 million of commercial real estate loans transferred to other real estate owned. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets decreased to 4.83% at September 30, 2012 compared to 6.28% at June 30, 2012. See the Asset Quality table in this press release for more detailed information.

We also remain focused on reducing non-interest expense. Despite an increase during the third quarter of 2012 to $9.0 million from $8.5 million for the second quarter of 2012, non-interest expense decreased from $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2011. Excluding credit related costs totaling $1.2 million, non-interest expense decreased to $7.7 million for the third quarter of 2012 from $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2012 and $8.5 million from the third quarter of 2011. These decreases were related to a significant decrease in compensation and employee benefit expense due to the previously announced VERO, the March 31, 2012 branch closings in Orland Park and Bolingbrook, Illinois, the outsourcing of certain support activities, and lower professional fees. The number of FTE employees has decreased to 259 at September 30, 2012 from 311 at September 30, 2011. See the "Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense" section in this press release for more detailed information.

We continue to target specific segments in our loan portfolio for growth, including commercial and industrial, owner occupied commercial real estate, and multifamily, which in the aggregate comprised 56.5% of the commercial loan portfolio at September 30, 2012, compared to 55.6% at June 30, 2012 and 52.2% at September 30, 2011. Our focus on deepening client relationships continues to emphasize core deposits. Total core deposits, which declined $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, increased as a percentage of total deposits to 63.3% at September 30, 2012 from 62.5% at June 30, 2012 and 60.5% at September 30, 2011 primarily due to continued shrinkage in certificates of deposit in this low interest rate environment.

Pre-tax, Pre-Provision Earnings, As Adjusted(1)

Pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, as adjusted, increased $847,000, or 31.5%, to $3.5 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2011. These increases were primarily due to a $261,000 increase in gains on sales of loans held for sale along with a $636,000 decrease in compensation and employee benefits expense.

The pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, as adjusted, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased $2.7 million, or 40.1%, to $9.4 million compared to $6.7 million for the 2011 period primarily due to increases in gains on sales of loans held for sale, income from bank-owned life insurance as a result of the death of an insured in the first quarter of 2012, and decreases in compensation and employee benefits, professional fees, and FDIC insurance premiums and regulatory assessments. These favorable variances were partially offset by an increase in marketing expenses and a slight decrease in net interest income.

The net interest margin increased five basis points to 3.47% for the third quarter of 2012 compared to 3.42% for the second quarter of 2012 and eight basis points from 3.39% for the third quarter of 2011. Net interest income was stable at $8.8 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $8.9 million for the second quarter of 2012 and the third quarter of 2011. The net interest margin benefited from loans comprising a larger proportion of interest-earning assets and decreases in non-performing assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the quarter. Higher levels of liquidity, modest loan demand, reduced but still elevated level of non-performing assets, the continued low interest rate environment, and narrowing of spreads on new investment security purchases will create pressure on the net interest margin for the foreseeable future. The third quarter 2012 decrease in yields on investment securities compared to the second quarter of 2012 was primarily related to prepayments and maturities of higher-yielding investment securities in the current lower interest rate environment with the proceeds reinvested at lower rates. The level of non-performing loans continues to negatively affect the yield on loans receivable. The net interest margin was positively affected by a seven basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from the second quarter of 2012 and a 21 basis point decrease compared to the third quarter of 2011.

Interest income totaled $10.2 million for the third quarter of 2012, a decrease of 2.7% from $10.5 million for the second quarter of 2012 and 4.7% from $10.8 million for the third quarter of 2011. The decreases are primarily related to the reinvestment of proceeds from sales and maturities of investment securities in lower yielding investments and maintaining higher levels of short-term liquid investments due to the lack of suitable higher yielding investment alternatives in the current low interest rate environment combined with modest loan demand.

Interest expense decreased 11.9% to $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2012 and 26.2% from $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2011. Our continuing success in increasing the proportion of low-cost core deposits to total deposits and continued disciplined pricing on new and renewing certificates of deposit contributed to the decrease in interest expense during the third quarter of 2012.

Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest income increased $389,000, or 14.7%, to $3.0 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2012 primarily due to a $339,000 increase in gains on sales of other real estate owned, a $127,000 increase in gains on the sale of loans held for sale, and an $84,000 increase in deposit related fees. These increases were partially offset by a $111,000 decrease in gains on sales of investment securities.

Non-interest income decreased $278,000, or 8.4%, from $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2011 primarily due to a $564,000 decrease in gains on the sale of investment securities and a $65,000 decrease in income from bank-owned life insurance due to lower portfolio yields. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $261,000 in gains on the sale of loans held for sale related to our expanded residential loan origination and mortgage banking activities and $159,000 in gains on the sale of other real estate owned. Excluding net gains and losses on sales of investment securities and other real estate owned, non-interest income increased $127,000 compared to the third quarter of 2011 primarily due to the increases in gains on the sale of loans held for sale partially offset by a decrease in income from bank-owned life insurance.

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2012 increased $427,000, or 5.0%, to $9.0 million compared to $8.5 million for the second quarter of 2012 primarily due to an increase of $758,000 of other real estate owned expense as a result of $1.0 million of net realizable value write-downs on seven properties. Excluding these credit related costs and loan collection expense, non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2012 decreased $382,000, or 4.7%, from the second quarter of 2012. This decrease is a result of a $285,000, or 6.4%, decrease in compensation and employee benefits due to slightly fewer FTEs during the quarter combined with a decrease in medical insurance expense.

Non-interest expense during the third quarter of 2012 decreased $217,000, or 2.4%, to $9.0 million from $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2011 due to lower compensation and employee benefits expense of $636,000 and professional fees of $132,000. These decreases were partially offset by a $460,000 increase in other real estate owned expense as a result of net realizable value write-downs, a $70,000 increase in marketing expenses, and a $53,000 increase in loan collection expense. Excluding credit related costs, non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2012 decreased $730,000, or 8.6%, from the third quarter of 2011.

Income Tax Expense

During the third quarter of 2012, we recorded income tax expense of $493,000, equal to an effective tax rate of 28.1%, compared to $541,000, or an effective tax rate of 28.5%, for the second quarter of 2012. During the third quarter of 2011, we recorded an income tax benefit of $84,000 due to the tax sheltering effect of the income from bank-owned life insurance and other tax credits.

Total non-performing loans decreased $15.3 million, or 29.5%, to $36.6 million at September 30, 2012 from $51.9 million at June 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to the transfer back to accrual status of two commercial real estate non-owner occupied and one commercial real estate owner occupied A-Note troubled debt restructurings totaling $9.8 million, a $1.7 million paydown of a non-accrual commercial participation loan, two commercial real estate loans transferred to other real estate owned totaling $5.6 million, and gross loan charge-offs totaling $1.0 million. Partially offsetting these decreases, commercial loans transferred to non-accrual status during the quarter totaled $3.1 million and retail loans transferred totaled $1.2 million. Of the total non-accrual loans at September 30, 2012, $3.9 million, or 10.5%, are current and performing in accordance with their loan agreements. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans decreased to 5.19% at September 30, 2012 from 7.27% and 8.18%, respectively, at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011.

The provision for loan losses was stable at $1.16 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $1.15 million for the second quarter of 2012 and decreased significantly from $2.67 million for the third quarter of 2011.

The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans increased to 1.76% at September 30, 2012 compared to 1.69% at June 30, 2012 primarily due to a slight increase in the allowance for loan losses and a decrease in total loans. When it is determined that a non-performing collateral-dependent loan has a collateral shortfall, management immediately charges-off the collateral shortfall. As a result, we are not required to maintain an allowance for loan losses on these loans as the loan balance has already been written down to its net realizable value (fair value less estimated costs to sell the collateral). As such, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans has continued to be negatively affected by cumulative partial charge-offs of $12.3 million recorded through September 30, 2012 on $24.8 million (net of charge-offs) of non-performing collateral dependent loans. At September 30, 2012, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans, excluding the $24.8 million of non-performing collateral dependent loans with partial charge-offs, improved to 105.3% from 62.8% at June 30, 2012.

During the third quarter of 2012, we transferred three loan relationships to other real estate owned totaling $5.8 million and sold 15 other real estate owned properties aggregating $6.5 million resulting in net gain on sale of $425,000. We continue to explore ways to reduce our overall exposure in our non-performing assets through various alternatives, including using A/B-Note structures and the potential sale of certain of these assets. We currently have contracts for the sale of certain other real estate owned properties which will reduce non-performing assets by $1.2 million with no anticipated loss on sale, presuming the transactions close as scheduled and pursuant to the contract terms.

Total loans receivable decreased $9.7 million at September 30, 2012 from June 30, 2012 primarily due to repayments totaling $21.1 million, sales of one-to-four family loans totaling $17.5 million, transfers to other real estate owned totaling $5.8 million, and gross charge-offs of $1.3 million. Partially offsetting these decreases, loan fundings during the three months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $37.3 million, a 19.2% increase from $31.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

At September 30, 2012, our total commercial loans outstanding that were originated prior to January 1, 2008 (Pre-1/1/08) decreased to $172.3 million, or 36.4% of total commercial loans outstanding compared to $187.9 million, or 38.9%, at June 30, 2012 and $202.6 million, or 42.8%, at December 31, 2011. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for a more detailed discussion of our Pre-1/1/08 commercial portfolio.

During the third quarter of 2012, we sold $17.5 million of conforming one-to-four family fixed-rate mortgage loans into the secondary market and recorded a gain on sale of $327,000 compared to loan sales and gains on sale of $3.2 million and $66,000, respectively, in the third quarter of 2011.

During the first quarter of 2012, we implemented our High Performance Checking (HPC) deposit acquisition marketing program that targets both retail and business clients. The program is designed to attract a younger demographic and enhance growth in core deposits and related fee income as well as to provide additional cross-selling opportunities. In addition, core deposits during 2012 benefited from clients moving maturing certificates of deposit into money market and savings accounts due to the current low interest rate environment.

Borrowed funds decreased slightly during the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to decreased borrowings from repurchase agreements, which will fluctuate depending on our client's liquidity levels.

Shareholders' Equity

Shareholders' equity at September 30, 2012 increased to $108.1 million, or 9.66% of assets, from $104.6 million, or 9.24% of assets, at June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to net income of $1.3 million for the quarter and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, of $2.4 million during the quarter. Shareholders' equity also increased from $103.2 million, or 8.99% of assets, at December 31, 2011 due to net income of $3.1 million and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

At September 30, 2012, the Bank's Tier 1 core capital ratio increased to 8.85% from 8.56% at June 30, 2012 and the total risk-based capital ratio increased to 13.82% from 13.35% at June 30, 2012. Both the Tier 1 core capital ratio and the total risk-based capital ratio exceeded "minimum" and "well capitalized" regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012.

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and general practice within the banking industry. We use certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our financial performance and have provided the non-GAAP financial measures of pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, as adjusted, and pre-tax, pre-provision earnings, as adjusted, to average assets. In these non-GAAP financial measures, the provision for loan losses, other real estate owned related income and expense, loan collection expense, and certain other items, such as gains and losses on sales of investment securities and other real estate owned and severance and retirement compensation expenses, are excluded. We believe that these measures are useful because they provide a more comparable basis for evaluating financial performance excluding certain credit-related costs and other non-recurring items period to period and allows management and others to assess our ability to generate pre-tax earnings to cover our provision for loan losses and other credit-related costs. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to enhance investors' understanding of our business performance, these operating measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP.
