COVINA, Calif., Feb. 2, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- K-Fed Bancorp KFED (the Company), the parent company of Kaiser Federal Bank (the Bank), reported a net loss of $1.2 million or $0.09 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and net income of $204,000 or $0.02 per diluted share for the six months then ended. This compares to net income of $931,000 or $0.07 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 and $2.3 million or $0.18 per diluted share for the six months then ended. The net loss for the current quarter resulted from an increase in the provision for loan losses.
As a result of the prolonged distressed economic environment, elevated unemployment levels and a depressed real estate market, the loan portfolio continues to show increased delinquency. Delinquent loans 60 days or more totaled $16.1 million or 2.10% of total loans and non-performing assets totaled $22.9 million or 2.61% of total assets at December 31, 2009. Delinquent loans 60 days or more totaled $8.5 million or 1.13% of total loans and non-performing assets totaled $9.4 million or 1.05% of total assets at June 30, 2009. The Bank continues to work with responsible borrowers to stay in their homes and as a result has restructured $5.1 million in mortgage loans that are performing according to their revised contractual terms at December 31, 2009. This compares to $2.1 million in restructured loans at June 30, 2009. All restructured loans are reported as non-accrual loans at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.
Also included in non-accrual loans at December 31, 2009 were two multi-family loans totaling $2.8 million and one commercial real estate loan totaling $2.7 million. One of the multi-family loans totaling $1.8 million was over 90 days delinquent and in the process of foreclosure. The other multi-family loan totaling $1.0 million was less than 60 days delinquent and the borrower filed for bankruptcy. The commercial real estate loan was less than 60 days delinquent at December 31, 2009 but the borrower was experiencing cash flow issues. In January, the commercial real estate loan was paid current. There were no multi-family or commercial real estate loans on non-accrual at June 30, 2009.
Provision for loan losses increased to $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 from $1.0 million for the same quarter last year. Provision for loan losses increased to $6.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 from $1.3 million for the same period last year. The increase in the provision for loan losses reflects management’s continuing assessment of the credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, which is affected by various trends, including current economic conditions and expected credit losses.
Net interest margin increased to 3.23% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 from 2.56% for the same quarter last year. Net interest margin increased to 3.04% for the six months ended December 31, 2009 from 2.57% for the same period last year. The increase in the net interest margin reflects a significant reduction in the cost of funds as a result of the declining interest rate environment and repayment of $60.0 million in higher costing Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances during the past six months.
Total assets decreased to $877.5 million at December 31, 2009 from $895.1 million at June 30, 2009 while gross loans receivable increased to $768.7 million at December 31, 2009 from $751.5 million at June 30, 2009. The decrease in total assets was a result of the repayment of $60.0 million in FHLB advances that matured during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The repayment of FHLB advances was funded with available liquidity due to strong deposit growth.
Total deposits increased $58.0 million to $624.2 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $566.2 million at June 30, 2009. The change was comprised of $33.6 million in certificates of deposit, $13.1 million in checking and savings balances and $11.3 million in money market balances. The increase in certificate of deposit balances was a result of promotions for these types of accounts as well as an increase of $6.2 million in individual retirement account balances in the month of December. The increase in checking and savings balances was primarily a result of a third pay period experienced by a significant number of our customers on the last day of December. In addition, money market balances have steadily increased throughout the fiscal year.
Noninterest expense increased to $4.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $4.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Noninterest expense increased to $8.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $7.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. The increases were primarily a result of an increase in federal deposit insurance premiums of $148,000 and $313,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively.
Total equity, represents 10.51% of total assets and decreased to $92.2 million at December 31, 2009 from $92.6 million at June 30, 2009. Currently, the Bank meets all regulatory capital requirements established by the Office of Thrift Supervision in order to be classified as a “well-capitalized” bank.
