Declares dividend of 1 cent per share payable June 15, 2009
HARLEYSVILLE, Pa., April 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harleysville
National Corporation (NASDAQ:HNBC) reported today net income of
$4.6 million or $.11 per diluted share for the first quarter of
2009, compared to $7.3 million, or $.23 per diluted share for the
first quarter of 2008. First quarter results include a non-cash
other-than-temporary impairment charge of $1.3 million on
collateralized debt obligation investments in pooled trust
preferred securities, as well as other investments. First quarter
results also include $1.0 million in severance expenses associated
with re-staffing the company. These costs were offset by a $2.0
million gain on the sale of investment securities, as well as a
$1.7 million gain from the sale of Harleysville National Bank's
merchant credit card business. Paul D. Geraghty, President and CEO,
Harleysville National Corporation, said, "Leading economists
continue to forecast a deteriorating economy at least through the
end of 2009 and possibly into 2010. This means that prudent banks
like Harleysville must take steps to conserve capital, cut costs,
and carefully manage credit exposures now and into the future. We
believe that the actions we took in the first quarter will position
us for long-term strength and stability. At the same time, our
profitable results and continued organic loan and deposit growth
indicate the strength of our underlying franchise as we manage
through economic instability and legacy credit costs." Provision
for Loan Losses During the first quarter of 2009, provision for
loan losses was $7.1 million, compared to $2.0 million in the first
quarter of 2008. The increase in provision for loan losses reflects
an increase in nonperforming assets to $89.5 million at March 31,
2009, up from $78.5 million at the end of 2008 and $27.1 million
from a year ago. Geraghty continued, "We have taken a number of
steps to protect the interest of shareholders and to proactively
reduce exposure to troubled borrowers, while continuing to support
our customers and communities. We have enhanced our credit review
process with additional staff and have also bolstered resources in
our loan workout group. During the first quarter we also
proactively reduced exposures to several troubled borrowers without
the need to write down any of the underlying loans - a significant
accomplishment in this economy. We are carefully monitoring our
positions in the loan portfolio to ensure that we are well-equipped
to deal with any deteriorating credit situations. We continue to
actively lend to creditworthy commercial and retail customers."
During the fourth quarter of 2008, the company reported that its
Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets fell below the
well-capitalized level to adequately capitalized. As of March 31,
2009, this ratio increased to 9.39% from 8.88% at December 31,
2008. Second Quarter Dividend The Board of Directors of
Harleysville National Corporation declared a regular cash dividend
of $.01 per share on 42,715,408 shares of outstanding common stock
as of April 22, 2009. The dividend is payable June 15, 2009, to
shareholders of record on May 30, 2009. Geraghty continued, "As we
continue to manage through legacy credit issues and build loan loss
reserves, conservation of capital is of the top priority of any
prudent financial institution in the current economic environment.
This necessitated this quarter's dividend action which, while
painful for our shareholders, enables us to conserve approximately
$3.9 million of capital per quarter for reinvestment in balance
sheet strength. We understand the importance of dividends to our
shareholders and, after careful consideration, feel this reduction
is the right thing to do to safeguard their long-term investment in
Harleysville National Corporation." In addition, the Board of
Directors has determined that it will withdraw its
previously-submitted application under the U.S. Treasury
Department's Capital Purchase Program, ("CPP") as part of the
Troubled Asset Relief Program ("TARP"). Geraghty, on behalf of the
Corporation, said, "Harleysville continues its efforts to return to
'Well-Capitalized' under regulatory guidelines, but at this time we
believe that the TARP program is not the best course of action for
us. We are exploring alternative sources of capital." Key Financial
Metrics The following is an overview of the key financial metrics
for the quarter: -- Total assets were $5.6 billion at March 31,
2009, an increase of 45.0% or $1.8 billion over $3.9 billion at

billion at the acquisition date of December 5, 2008. -- Loans
increased $1.1 billion and deposits grew $1.2 billion from March
31, 2008. Adjusted for the Willow Financial acquisition, organic
loan growth was approximately $81.3 million or 3.3%, and deposits
grew by $240.4 million or 8.1%. -- Net interest income on a tax
equivalent basis in the first quarter of 2009 increased $11.6
million or 44.5% from the same period in 2008 mainly as a result of
the Willow Financial acquisition. The net interest margin for the
first quarter of 2009 was 3.02% compared to 2.91% for the same
period in 2008. -- Nonperforming assets were $89.5 million at March
31, 2009. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets
increased to 1.58% from 1.43% at December 31, 2008, and 0.69% at
March 31, 2008. Net charge-offs were $4.0 million compared to
$798,000 in the first quarter of 2008. -- Quarterly noninterest
income was up $5.3 million from the first quarter of 2008. Gains on
sales of investment securities and loans increased by $3.3 million
over last year's quarter. Service charges on deposits increased
$1.1 million, or 34.7% mainly from Willow Financial deposit
accounts. In addition, first quarter noninterest income includes
$1.7 million gain on the sale of the Bank's merchant credit card
business. A non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge of $1.3
million on collateralized debt obligation investments in pooled
trust preferred securities as well as other investments was also
recorded during the first quarter of 2009. -- Quarterly noninterest
expenses were up $14.9 million over the same period in the prior
year, driven by the acquisition of Willow Financial. In addition,
FDIC insurance assessments increased by $2.6 million and severance
costs were $1.0 million. Other expenses were $3.5 million higher
during the first quarter of 2009 mostly due to Willow Financial
including increased professional, consulting and data processing
expenses. Harleysville National Corporation, with assets of $5.6
