MUSKEGON, Mich., Aug. 5, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Community Shores Bank Corporation CSHB ("Community Shores"), Muskegon's only locally headquartered independent community banking organization, today reported a second quarter net loss of $1.19 million, or ($0.81) per diluted share, an 11.0 percent improvement compared with the second quarter 2009 net loss of $1.34 million, or ($0.91) per diluted share. For the six-month period year-to-date, the Company recorded a net loss of $1.63 million, or ($1.11) per diluted share, compared to a loss of $1.61 million, or ($1.09) per diluted share, for the first six months of 2009. Results for the June 2010 quarter and 2010 year-to-date period were impacted by increased provisioning for anticipated loan and lease losses, as well as higher expenses associated with problem credits. Both the current and year-ago results were affected by the deferred tax valuation allowance established in the year-ago second quarter, which essentially limited Community Shores' ability to utilize deferred tax benefits until a trend of profitability has been reestablished.
Heather D. Brolick, president and chief executive officer of Community Shores Bank Corporation, commented, "We have become inured to the protracted weakness in our markets. Recovery in both real estate and employment has taken longer than we ever anticipated, and even though there are signs of stabilization in both areas, we are managing to a lower set of expectations for the foreseeable future. We are slowly working to resolve our problem assets through a combination of aggressive charge-offs and an increasing rate of foreclosed asset dispositions.
"Year-to-date we sold nine foreclosed real properties for total proceeds of $770,000. We believe our loans and foreclosed real properties have been marked down aggressively and carried at values that are realistic. As an example, the total loss that we recognized on the nine properties we sold was in the neighborhood of $20,000. We are hopeful that values have finally stabilized in our markets and that greater sales activity will bear this out.
"Although new additions to nonaccrual status were the lowest in two years, we have not relaxed our vigilance. We have maintained a tight rein on controllable operating expenses, and have been reasonably successful offsetting the growing impact of credit-related and regulatory expenses. Our quarterly revenue has also been stable despite the heavy burden of nonaccrual loans. However, the duration and intensity of this credit cycle has gradually eroded our capital base to the point where our Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio is now 3 bp below the well-capitalized level at quarter end. Our goal of shrinking our balance sheet to restore our well-capitalized status during the third quarter is already proving to be successful, as our Total Risk-Based Ratio was 10.02 percent as of July 31, 2010. Community Shores remains well capitalized with respect to Tier I Capital," added Ms. Brolick.
Operating Results
Net interest income for the first half of 2010 was $3.48 million or $251,000 more than that recorded for the same period in 2009. The corresponding net interest margin was 3.10 percent, a 29 basis point improvement year over year. Net interest income for the 2010 second quarter was $1.76 million, up $122,000, or 7.4 percent, over the year-ago quarter. This improvement reflected a 19 basis point expansion of the net interest margin to 3.04 percent. Average earning assets were roughly unchanged; however, there was a significant decrease in the Company's average cost of funds. "Looking forward, we anticipate continued margin improvement as a result of higher rate time deposits maturing and being replaced at current market rates. In the second half of the year, nearly $19 million is maturing at an average rate of 4.68 percent. Current rates are more than 200 basis points less," added Brolick. "These should have a measurably favorable impact on our 2011 net interest margin."
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2010 was $366,000, down 42.9 percent from the $640,000 recorded for the second quarter of 2009. Excluding the loss on disposal of foreclosed real estate-owned ("OREO") of $13,000 and $11,000 for the 2010 and 2009 second quarters, respectively, and excluding the June 2009 gain on securities sales of $144,000, noninterest income from operations was $378,000 for the June 2010 quarter compared to $507,000 for the year-ago quarter. Lower levels of service fee and mortgage banking income contributed to the year-over-year decline.
The provision for loan and lease losses for the 2010 second quarter was $833,000 compared to $529,000 and $130,000, respectively, for the linked and year-ago quarters. Year-to-date, Community Shores added $1.36 million to its loan and lease loss reserves compared to $478,000 for the first half of 2009. The allowance for loan losses now stands at $3.14 million, or 1.74 percent of total loans, compared to $2.56 million, or 1.31 percent of total loans as of June 30, 2009.
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.49 million compared to $2.33 million for the second quarter of 2009. The Company's operating expenses continue to be under control and well-managed, partially offsetting the additional costs associated with problem asset administration and FDIC premiums. Controllable overhead expenses, namely salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment, advertising, data processing and professional fees, declined by $97,000 from the year-ago quarter, primarily from a $76,000 decline in salaries and benefits and a $24,000 decline in furniture and equipment expenses. Expenses associated with the resolution and administration of problem assets (including repossession and collection expenses, and write-downs on foreclosed property) and quarterly FDIC insurance premiums were $694,000 for the second quarter of 2010. Excluding the one-time special FDIC assessment of $114,000 in the 2009 second quarter, normalized credit and regulatory costs were $328,000 for the year-ago quarter, less than half the current quarterly expense.
Balance Sheet
Total assets as of June 30, 2010 were $261.4 million, an increase of $8.1 million or 3.2 percent, from March 31, 2010 and $13.0 million, or 5.3 percent, greater than the year-ago quarter-end. Community Shores has steadily increased its balance sheet liquidity over the past twelve months to better respond to the challenging banking environment. Cash and cash equivalents and securities increased $29.3 million to $63.7 million since June 30, 2009, while total loans (held for investment) have decreased by $13.5 million, or 7.0 percent, to $178.8 million over the same period. The two largest loan categories, commercial ("C&I") loans with 37 percent of outstandings and commercial real estate ("CRE") loans with 40 percent, also accounted for the majority of the year-over-year loan decline; C&I loans declined by $9.1 million, or 12.2 percent, while CRE loans declined by $3.5 million, or 4.7 percent. Total deposits were $229.2 million at June 30, 2010, up $17.5 million, or 8.3 percent, compared to $211.7 million as of June 30, 2009. Year-over-year deposit growth was primarily derived from an $8.8 million, or 16.4 percent, increase in transaction accounts, to $62.5 million, and a $10.0 million, or 14.0 percent, increase in local time deposits, to $81.1 million. Brokered deposits were $56.1 million, down $3.0 million or 5.1 percent from the year-ago quarter.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets, consisting of nonperforming loans (nonaccrual loans plus loans > 90 days past due and still accruing), OREO, and other repossessed assets, were $14.8 million, or 5.67 percent of total assets, as of June 30, 2010, down approximately $1.0 million from a first quarter 2010 peak of $15.8 million, or 6.25 percent of assets. Nonperforming loan balances have reduced by 12.7 percent from year-end 2009 levels, with much of the decline resulting from the migration to OREO as the Company progresses through the resolution process. Since year-end 2009, Community Shores has added $2.4 million of nonperforming assets, sold $1.0 million and charged-off or written-down $2.4 million. Net charge-offs for the 2010 second quarter were $1.0 million, or 2.2 percent of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $994,000 (2.2 percent annualized) in the linked-quarter. Year-to-date, the Bank has charged-off $2.0 million (2.2 percent annualized) compared to net charge-offs of $2.3 million (2.3 percent annualized) for the first six months of 2009.
Capital
Consolidated shareholders' equity as of June 30, 2010 stood at $8.4 million, a decline of $4.6 million, or 35.4 percent, since June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2010, the Bank remains "well-capitalized" with respect to Tier 1 Capital at 8.72 percent of total risk-weighted assets, and is adequately capitalized with respect to Total Risk-Based Capital at 9.97 percent.
Ms. Brolick concluded, "We continue to make progress, albeit slower than we anticipated. This is a marathon and we are positioned for the longer haul. We believe there is an important role for community banking in our marketplace, and Community Shores exemplifies that commitment to the Greater Muskegon economy and to the banking needs of its residents."
