Business Wire
American Riviera Bank (OTCBB: ARBV) announced today unaudited
net income of $391,000 ($0.15 per share) for the quarter ended June
30, 2013 and $730,163 ($0.29 per share) for the six months ended
June 30, 2013. Pre-tax income for the quarter increased 68% to
$649,000 at June 30, 2013 compared to the $386,000 reported for the
quarter ended June 30, 2012. Pre-tax income for the first six
months of 2013 was $1,211,334, an 83% improvement from the $660,928

The Bank has experienced strong growth in loans, reporting $138
million in average loans for the second quarter of 2013, which
represents a 22% increase from the second quarter of 2012. Although
there has been some pressure on net interest margin due to
competition for quality loans in our community, net interest margin
remains well above peer average at 4.68% year to date, and 4.64% in
the most recent quarter, due to the funding advantage provided by
an increase in non-interest bearing deposits.
American Riviera Bank has also experienced consistent growth in
deposits, reporting $145 million in total deposits at June 30,
2013. The Bank grew non-interest bearing checking accounts to $40
million at quarter end, a 48% increase compared to the same
reporting period last year.
Jeff DeVine, President and Chief Executive
Officer, stated, “The Bank is pleased to be experiencing consistent
growth from our existing Santa Barbara branch as well as our new
Montecito branch. The new clients and increased deposits have
enabled us to grow loans and meet significant local loan demand. We
are excited to serve an expanding number of clients throughout the
community and look forward to helping each client achieve their
goals.”
The Bank has $180 million in total assets, and maintains a
strong capital position with Tier 1 Capital to total average assets
of 14% as of June 30, 2013, well above the regulatory guideline of
5% for well capitalized institutions. The book value of one share
of American Riviera Bank stock is $9.53 at June 30, 2013, an
increase from $8.99 at June 30, 2012.
