Stewardship Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:SSFN), parent company of
Atlantic Stewardship Bank, announced net income for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2018 of $2.3 million, or $0.27 per share,
and $4.1 million, or $0.47 per share, respectively. For the
equivalent prior year periods, net income was $1.3 million, or
$0.16 per share, and $2.3 million, or $0.32 per share,
respectively.
Paul Van Ostenbridge, Stewardship Financial
Corporation’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We
are pleased to, once again, report a successful quarter for the
Corporation. While the environment for loans and deposits
continues to be very competitive, we are focused on quality loan
and deposit growth with an emphasis on expanding existing
relationships and developing new ones.”
Operating ResultsThe
Corporation reported net interest income of $7.0 million and $13.8
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018,
respectively, reflecting increases over $6.5 million and $12.7
million realized in the comparable prior year periods. "Net
interest income benefited from a steady increase in assets and, to
a lesser extent, a net interest margin that has been stable to
slightly widening over the past several quarters," Van Ostenbridge
stated.
The Corporation recorded reversal of the
allowance for loan losses resulting in negative provisions for loan
losses for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 of
$780,000 and $1.1 million, respectively. For the three and
six months ended June 30, 2017, positive provision for loan losses
of $260,000 and $560,000, respectively, were reported. While
growth in the loan portfolio generally requires the establishment
of additional reserves, the negative loan loss provisions reflect
net recoveries of previously charged off loan balances of $688,000
and $706,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018,
respectively. The negative provisions for loan losses also
reflect the continued improvement in the economic conditions and
overall real estate climate in the primary business markets in
which the Corporation operates.
For the three and six months ended June 30,
2018, noninterest income was $859,000 and $1.6 million,
respectively, compared to $813,000 and $1.6 million in the
corresponding prior year periods. In connection with the
establishment of a Small Business Administration ("SBA") department
in late 2017, noninterest income for both the three and six months
ended June 30, 2018 included $59,000 of gains from the sale of the
guaranteed portion of newly originated SBA loans. The three
and six months ended June 30, 2018 reflected $29,000 and $103,000,
respectively, of negative mark to market adjustments of a CRA
investment which is classified as an equity security. Such
security has been owned for years for CRA purposes, but under newly
enacted accounting rules, equity securities now require a quarterly
mark to market through the income statement.
Noninterest expenses for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2018 were $5.5 million and $10.9 million,
respectively, compared to $5.1 million and $10.2 million in the
comparable prior year periods. The largest increase in
expenses in 2018 occurred in salaries and employee benefits, which
includes the costs associated with the establishment of the
previously mentioned SBA Lending Department - fully staffed with
experienced employees, as well as normal salary increases.
"As we remain focused on growing the balance sheet, the Corporation
will continue to appropriately manage our expenses,” noted Van
Ostenbridge.
Results for the current year periods included
the impact of a reduction in the Federal corporate income tax rate
from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 as a result of the
enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”). For the
current three and six month periods the effective tax rate was
26.8% and 26.6%, respectively, compared to an effective tax rate of
36.7% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
Balance Sheet / Financial
ConditionTotal assets at June 30, 2018 were $941.7
million, showing an increase of $12.9 million from the $928.8
million of assets at December 31, 2017. Net loans increased
$10.8 million representing new originations that were partially
offset by several larger loan payoffs during the first six months
of 2018 as well as normal principal amortization.
Total deposits were $792.1 million at June 30,
2018, indicating net growth of $28.0 million since December 31,
2017. The growth in deposits primarily consisted of a $15.5
million increase in noninterest-bearing accounts and a $12.5
million increase in interest-bearing accounts.
All regulatory capital levels at June 30, 2018
remain above the levels considered to be "well capitalized" under
the applicable regulations. The Corporation’s Tier 1 leverage
ratio and total risk based capital ratio at June 30, 2018 were
9.15% and 14.28%, respectively.
