-- Allowance for loan losses decreased $1.9 million to $27.7 million, or

Southern Community Financial reported a net loss available to
common shareholders of $488 thousand for the first quarter 2011,
compared with a net loss of $11.5 million for the fourth quarter of
2010 and net loss of $5.2 million for the first quarter 2010. The
net loss per diluted common share in the first quarter 2011
decreased to $0.03, compared to $0.68 and $0.31 for the fourth
quarter 2010 and first quarter 2010, respectively.
"We are pleased to report a profit before preferred dividend for
the first quarter of 2011. We also are very encouraged by the 20%
reduction in our nonperforming loans during the first quarter of
2011 and by continued positive trends in our impaired loans," said
F. Scott Bauer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The first
quarter of 2011 marked the fourth consecutive quarter in which our
loan delinquencies have decreased. Impaired loans requiring
specific reserves dropped $14.5 million, or 52%, compared to the
fourth quarter of 2010. We are continuing to make progress in the
resolution of the formerly collateral dependent loans that were
added to nonaccrual status during the third quarter of 2010. Given
these developments, we are optimistic that our nonperforming loans
will continue to decrease in the second quarter of 2011,
particularly as we anticipate additional formerly collateral
dependent loans to be returned to accruing status. As a result, we
continue to expect opportunities for net interest margin
improvement in the second quarter of 2011.
While we are optimistic about the positive trends we are seeing
in our asset quality, we continue to anticipate shrinkage in our
overall loan portfolio and balance sheet as loan demand remains
weak due to the prolonged economic downturn. However, this
shrinkage will allow us to better manage our capital during the
current economic cycle.
Our employees continue to exceed my expectations for their
exemplary commitment to providing our customers with the highest
level of service possible. Southern Community remains well funded
with regulatory capital ratios in excess of the well-capitalized
requirements at the consolidated Company level and with a Tier 1
leverage ratio in excess of 8% and a total risk-based capital ratio
above 12% at the Bank level."
Asset Quality
Nonperforming loans decreased $18.0 million to $73.8 million, or
6.80% of total loans, at March 31, 2011 from $91.8 million, or
8.08% of total loans, at December 31, 2010. Included in the $18.0
million net reduction in nonperforming loans, there are $11.0
million in formerly collateral dependent loans that were restored
to an accruing status during first quarter of 2011 as a result of
consistent payment performance on these loans over a reasonable
period subsequent to the addition of principal curtailments to the
borrowers' scheduled loan payments. Loans delinquent 30-89 days
declined to $3.4 million at March 31, 2011 from $5.5 million at
December 31, 2010, and from $8.9 million at September 31, 2010.
Nonperforming assets decreased to $96.8 million, or 6.04% of total
assets, at March 31, 2011 from $109.1 million, or 6.60% of total
assets, at December 31, 2010.
The provision for loan losses of $4.1 million in the first
quarter of 2011 decreased $2.4 million from $6.5 million in the
fourth quarter 2010. The allowance for loan losses (ALLL) decreased
$1.9 million to $27.7 million, or 2.55% of total loans, from $29.6
million, or 2.60% of total loans, at December 31, 2010. Net
charge-offs decreased sequentially to $6.0 million, or 2.19% of
average loans on an annualized basis, from $12.0 million, or 4.10%
of average loans on an annualized basis, for the fourth quarter
2010. As the overall ALLL decreased sequentially during the first
quarter of 2011, the specific allowance for impaired loans
decreased by $2.3 million to $2.8 million on a linked quarter basis
as the volume of impaired loans requiring a specific allowance
decreased to $15.9 million at March 31, 2011 from $28.2 million at
December 31, 2010.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income of $12.8 million in the first quarter of
2011 increased $426 thousand, or 3%, compared to $12.4 million in
the fourth quarter of 2010 and the net interest margin increased 28
basis points to 3.42% compared with 3.14% in the fourth quarter of
2010. The sequential increase in net interest income and the net
interest margin resulted from the impact of $11.0 million in
formerly collateral dependent loans that were reinstated to accrual
status as well as the continued downward repricing of deposits.
These positive factors were partially offset by a $44.4 million
decrease in the average balance of earning assets, driven by a
$50.7 million decrease in average loan balances.
On a year-over-year basis, net interest income decreased $416
thousand, or 3%, and the net interest margin increased by one basis
point from 3.41% in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease in net
interest income year-over-year was due primarily to a $52.6 million
decrease in the average balance of earning assets partially offset
by the favorable impact of the cost of interest-bearing liabilities
repricing downward to a greater extent than the yield on earning
assets.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income decreased by $1.3 million, or 31%, to $2.9
million during the first quarter of 2011 compared with the fourth
quarter of 2010. The sequential decrease in non-interest income was
attributable primarily to a $526 thousand decrease in the fair
value of derivatives, a $451 thousand decrease in mortgage banking
income, a $129 thousand decrease in service charge income and a
$118 thousand decrease in investment brokerage fee income. These
sequential decreases in non-interest income were slightly offset by
a $116 thousand improvement in Small Business Investment Company
(SBIC) income.
Compared to the first quarter of 2010, non-interest income
decreased by $1.1 million, or 27%. The year-over-year decrease was
primarily related to a $574 thousand decrease in the fair value of
derivatives and a $410 thousand decrease in gains on investment
security sales.
Non-interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses of $11.5 million during the first quarter
of 2011 decreased $1.1 million, or 9%, on a linked quarter basis.
The sequential reduction in non-interest expenses was attributable
to a decrease in writedowns on foreclosed property of $1.3 million,
a $199 thousand decrease in other expenses related to foreclosed
real estate and a $357 thousand decrease in salaries and employee
benefits. Offsetting a portion of these sequential decreases, there
were sequential increases in other non-interest expense categories
of $711 thousand in total, the largest of which was a $598 thousand
increase in FDIC insurance premiums.
Compared to the first quarter of 2010, non-interest expenses
decreased $360 thousand, or 3%. This year-over-year decrease was
due primarily to a $723 thousand decrease in salaries and employee
benefits, and a $132 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment
expenses. These expense reductions more than offset a $456 thousand
increase in other non-interest expenses, the largest of which was a
$586 thousand increase in FDIC insurance premiums.
Balance Sheet
As of March 31, 2011, total assets amounted to $1.6 billion,
representing a decrease of $49.5 million, or 3%, compared to
December 31, 2010. Total assets decreased $103.3 million, or 6%, on
a year-over-year basis. The loan portfolio decreased by $46.6
million, or 4%, sequentially, and decreased by $125.0 million, or
10%, since March 31, 2010 due to decreased loan demand resulting
from the prolonged weak economic conditions. Total deposits of $1.3
billion at March 31, 2011 decreased $69.2 million, or 5%,
sequentially due to an $85.5 million decrease in interest bearing
deposits offset by a $16.3 million increase in demand deposits.
At March 31, 2011, stockholders' equity of $91.9 million
represented 5.73% of total assets. Stockholders' equity decreased
$487 thousand, or less than one percent, to $91.9 million from
$92.3 million at December 31, 2010. The regulatory capital ratios
at the Bank at March 31, 2011 were in excess of the levels required
under the Consent Order with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.10% and a
total risk-based capital ratio of 12.05%.
