Ronald M. Bentley, President and CEO stated, "By channeling deposits from the branch offices acquired in late 2013 into loans, the loan portfolio increased $118.3 million, or 11.9%, from the beginning of the year. The growth was driven by commercial loans in the Capital Region, along with an increase in indirect consumer loans, and contributed to the increase in net interest margin to 3.56% for the third quarter of 2014 from 3.51% for the preceding quarter. We expect to continue realizing benefits from the branch offices acquired in late 2013. We are also excited for the opening of our new Capital Bank headquarters and Wealth Management Group office in downtown Albany, scheduled for January 2015."

Summary:

Chemung Financial Corporation reported net income of $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2014, an increase of $0.1 million, or 4.2%, compared with $2.2 million for the same period in the prior year. Earnings per share for the third quarter of 2014 totaled $0.48, compared with $0.47 for the same period in the prior year. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the third quarter of 2014 were 0.60% and 6.30%, respectively, compared with 0.67% and 6.45%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Core net income (see the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations) for the third quarter of 2014 was $2.3 million, or $0.48 per share, compared with $2.3 million, or $0.50 per share, for the same period in the prior year. The core net income for the current quarter was the same as reported net income. Core net income for the third quarter of 2013 excluded the pre-tax acquisition expenses of $0.2 million. Net interest income and non-interest income increased $0.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively, along with a reduction of $0.5 million in the provision for loan losses. These items were partially offset by an increase of $1.9 million in non-interest expense. The increase in non-interest expense was due primarily to increases of $0.6 million in salaries and wages, $0.4 million in occupancy expense and $0.3 million in data processing expense. A portion of the increase in non-interest expense was due to operating expenses directly related to the branch offices acquired in late 2013, along with annual merit increases in salaries and wages and upgrades for ATMs and software. Core return on average assets and core return on average equity for the third quarter of 2014 were 0.60% and 6.30%, respectively, compared with 0.71% and 6.85%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Net income of $2.3 million for the current quarter ended September 30, 2014 represents an increase of $0.4 million, or 17.6%, from net income of $1.9 million for the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2014. The increase in earnings was due primarily to an increase of $0.4 million in net interest income and a reduction of $0.5 million in the provision for loan losses. These items were partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in non-interest income related to a net gain on securities transactions in the preceding quarter, and an increase of $0.2 million in income taxes. Earnings per share for the current quarter totaled $0.48 compared with $0.41 for the preceding quarter. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the current quarter were 0.60% and 6.30%, respectively, compared with 0.51% and 5.44%, respectively, for the preceding quarter.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $6.3 million, a decrease of $0.9 million, or 13.6%, compared with $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $1.34, compared with $1.56 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were 0.56% and 5.89%, respectively, compared with 0.76% and 7.25%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Core net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $6.0 million, or $1.29 per share, compared with $7.4 million, or $1.58 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The current year core net income excluded pre-tax items of $0.5 million in net gain on securities transactions and $0.1 million in acquisition expenses. The core net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 excluded the pre-tax acquisition expenses of $0.2 million. The decrease in core net income was due primarily to increases of $5.6 million in non-interest expense and $0.6 million in provision for loan losses. These items were partially offset by increases of $2.0 million in net interest income and $2.0 million in non-interest income, and a reduction of $0.8 million in income taxes. The increase in non-interest expense was due primarily to increases of $1.5 million in salaries and wages, $1.2 million in occupancy expense, $1.0 million in data processing expense, $0.5 million in furniture and equipment expense and $0.3 million in amortization of intangible assets. A portion of the increase in non-interest expense was due to operating expenses directly related to the branch offices acquired in late 2013, along with annual merit increases in salaries and wages and upgrades for ATMs and software. Core return on average assets and core return on average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were 0.54% and 5.66%, respectively, compared with 0.77% and 7.38%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2014 totaled $12.4 million compared with $11.5 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.9 million, or 7.9%. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.56% for the third quarter of 2014 compared with 3.90% for the same period in the prior year. The decline in net interest margin was due in part to a 41 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a ten basis point decline in the cost of funds and an increase of $214.2 million in average interest-earning assets. The Corporation anticipated a decline in the yield on interest-earning assets due in part to its investment of cash from the acquired branch offices into investment securities.

Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $12.4 million compared with $12.1 million for the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $0.3 million, or 2.9%. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.56% for the current quarter compared with 3.51% for the preceding quarter. The increase in net interest margin was due primarily to a five basis point increase in the yield on interest-earnings assets and an increase of $4.0 million in average interest-earning assets.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 totaled $36.5 million compared with $34.6 million for the prior year, an increase of $1.9 million, or 5.7%. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.55% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared with 3.99% for the same period in the prior year. The increase in net interest income was due to an increase of $218.5 million in average interest-earning assets and a 12 basis point decline in the cost of funds, partially offset by a 52 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets. The decline in net interest margin was due primarily to yields on interest-earning assets decreasing at a faster rate than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in yield on interest-earning assets was attributable to lower loan yields as loans continue to reprice at current market rates. The Corporation anticipated a decline in the yield on interest-earning assets due in part to its investment of cash from the acquired branch offices into investment securities.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2014 was $5.0 million compared with $5.4 million for the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2014 and $4.4 million for the third quarter in the prior year. The decrease from the preceding quarter was due primarily to a decrease of $0.5 million in net gain on securities transactions. The increase from the year-ago quarter was due primarily to increases of $0.2 million in check-card fee income, $0.2 million in service charges on deposit accounts and $0.1 million in Wealth Management Group fee income.

Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $15.4 million compared with $12.8 million for the prior year, an increase of $2.6 million, or 19.5%. The increase was due primarily to a $0.5 million net gain on securities transactions, increases of $0.7 million in check-card fee income, $0.6 million in service charges on deposit accounts, $0.4 million in Wealth Management Group fee income and a gain of $0.5 million from the liquidation of the Corporation's investment in a pool of trust preferred securities.

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2014 was $13.5 million compared with $11.8 million for the prior year, an increase of $1.7 million, or 14.4%. The increase was due primarily to increases of $0.6 million in salaries and wages, $0.4 million in occupancy expense, $0.3 million in data processing expense and $0.2 million in furniture and equipment expense. The majority of the increase in non-interest expense was due to operating expenses directly related to the branches acquired in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Non-interest expense for the current quarter was $13.5 million compared with $13.6 million for the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.5%.

Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $40.4 million compared with $34.9 million for the prior year, an increase of $5.5 million, or 15.8%. The increase was due primarily to increases of $1.5 million in salaries and wages, $1.2 million in occupancy expense, $0.9 million in data processing expense, $0.5 million in furniture and equipment expense, $0.3 million in amortization of intangible assets and $0.7 million in other non-interest expense related to various items. A portion of the increase in non-interest expense was due to operating expenses directly related to the branch offices acquired in late 2013, along with annual merit increases in salaries and wages and upgrades for ATMs and software.

Asset Quality:

Non-performing loans totaled $7.2 million at September 30, 2014, or 0.65% of total loans, compared with $7.6 million, or 0.79%, at September 30, 2013. The decrease in non-performing loans at September 30, 2014 was primarily in the commercial loan and residential mortgage segments of the loan portfolio. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans and other real estate owned, was 0.68% of total assets, or $10.3 million at September 30, 2014, compared with 0.61%, or $8.2 million, at September 30, 2013. The increase in non-performing assets was due primarily to the transfer of one acquired purchase-credit-impaired commercial loan to other real estate owned. The Corporation's peer group average for the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 1.27% at June 30, 2014 (the most recent period available).

Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors including an analysis of historical loss factors, collateral evaluations, recent charge-off experience, credit quality of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and loan growth. Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2014 was $0.6 million compared with $1.1 million for the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2014, and $0.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the provision for loan losses from the preceding quarter was due primarily to a reduction in the provision for loan losses related to organic loan growth. Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $1.1 million compared with $0.6 million for the preceding quarter and $0.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The net charge-offs for the current quarter were due primarily to a $0.9 million charge-off of an acquired purchase-credit-impaired loan that was transferred to other real estate owned. The net charge-offs for the preceding quarter were due primarily to a $0.3 million charge-off of an acquired purchase-credit-impaired loan that was transferred to other real estate owned and a $0.3 million originated commercial loan.

The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $2.3 million compared with $1.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in the provision for loans losses was due to an increase in net charge-offs and growth in the loan portfolio. Net charges-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were $2.0 million compared with $0.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in net charge-offs from the prior year was due primarily to the charge-off of three commercial loans, the majority attributable to two acquired purchase-credit-impaired loans.

At September 30, 2014 the allowance for loan losses was $13.2 million, compared with $11.9 million at September 30, 2013. The allowance for loan losses was 182.42% of non-performing loans at September 30, 2014, compared with 155.12% at September 30, 2013. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.18% at September 30, 2014, compared with 1.23% at September 30, 2013.

Assets totaled $1.522 billion at September 30, 2014 compared with $1.341 billion at September 30, 2013, an increase of $180.8 million, or 13.5%. The growth was due primarily to increases of $146.5 million, or 15.1%, in total portfolio loans and $25.3 million in investment securities.

The increase in portfolio loans was due to strong growth of $82.5 million in commercial loans and $38.9 million in consumer loans.

Deposits totaled $1.311 billion at September 30, 2014 compared with $1.090 billion at September 30, 2013, an increase of $220.5 million, or 20.2%. The increase was primarily attributable to $177.7 million from the branch acquisition and $42.8 million in organic deposit growth, due in part to the seasonal inflow of municipal deposits. At September 30, 2014, demand deposit accounts, excluding money market accounts, comprised 39.0% of total deposits compared with 36.1% at September 30, 2013.

Deposits totaled $1.311 billion at September 30, 2014 compared with $1.266 billion at December 31, 2014, an increase of $44.7 million, or 3.5%.  The increase was primarily attributable to increases of $30.6 million in money market accounts, due in part to the seasonal inflow of municipal deposits, $21.7 million in non-interest-bearing demand deposits, $24.1 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $1.6 million in savings accounts.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

The table below shows computations of core net income, tangible equity and tangible assets and certain related ratios, all of which are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio has become a focus of some investors and management believes this ratio may assist in analyzing the Corporation's capital position, absent the effects of intangible assets. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the non-GAAP measures presented in the following table may not be comparable to those reported by other companies.
