Net Interest Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2014, total interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis decreased $547,000 or 10.2 percent, to $4.8 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013. Total interest expense decreased by $318,000, or 20.7 percent, to $1.2 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period last year. Interest income declined in the quarter ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period last year due to a $31.5 million decline in average loan balance and a $23.5 million decline in average investment balance due to maturities and sales of investment securities.
Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, decreasing $229,000, or 6.0 percent, from $3.9 million for the comparable period in 2013. Compared to 2013, for the three months ended September 30, 2014, average interest earning assets decreased $73.3 million while net interest spread was at 2.55 percent and 2.37 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively. For the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company's net interest margin increased to 2.70 percent as compared to 2.53 percent for the same three month period in 2013.
The 20.7 percent and 27.0 percent decrease in interest expense for both the quarter and the twelve months period, respectively, reflects a favorable shift in the deposit mix and the impact of the sustained low levels in short-term interest rates, offsetting higher volumes of interest bearing deposits. The average cost of funds declined 10 basis points to 1.06 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 from 1.16 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 and was equal to the third quarter of 2014.
For the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis amounted to $15.2 million, compared to $15.4 million for the same period in 2013. For the twelve month period ended September 30, 2014, interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis decreased by $2.2 million while interest expense decreased by $1.9 million from the same period last year. Compared to the same period in 2013, for the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, average interest earning assets decreased $83.1 million while net interest spread and margin increased by 34 basis points and 31 basis points, respectively.

Other Income
Other income decreased $39,000 for the fourth quarter of 2014 compared with the same period in 2013. During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company recorded no net gains or losses on sales of investment securities compared to net losses on sales of investment securities of $24,000 for the same period last year. Excluding net securities gains and losses, a non-GAAP measure, the Company recorded other income of $446,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to other income of $509,000 for the fourth quarter of 2013 and $675,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Decreases in other income in the fourth quarter of 2014 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2013 (excluding securities gains) were primarily from a decrease of $31,000 in service charges on deposit accounts, a decrease in bank owned life insurance income of $12,000, and a decrease of $21,000 in net gain on sale of loans.
For the twelve months ended September 30, 2014, total other income decreased $705,000 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of a $396,000 reduction in net securities gains, a decrease of $102,000 in service charges on deposit accounts and a decrease of $617,000 relating to income on bank owned life insurance, offset in part by an increase of $446,000 in net gain on sale of loans. The decrease in service charges for the twelve months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to a decrease of $42,000 in other loan fee income, a $17,000 decrease in demand deposit fee income and a decrease of $38,000 other fees. Excluding net securities gains and losses, a non-GAAP measure, the Company recorded other income of $2.1 million for the twelve months ended September 30, 2014 compared to other income, excluding net securities gains and losses, of $2.4 million for the comparable period in 2013, representing a decrease of $309,000 or 13.0 percent.

Other Expense
Total other expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 amounted to $3.6 million, which was approximately $610,000 or 14.6 percent lower than other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014, primarily related to a decrease in other real estate owned expense, which decreased $544,000. Other real estate owned expense decreased due to a $500,000 insurance reimbursement of a fire claim for a property located in Melrose Park, Pennsylvania. This property subsequently was sold in October 2014 resulting in a gain of $13,000. Provision expense for the fourth quarter amounted to $183,000 versus a provision of approximately $10.0 million for the comparable quarter in 2013. Other decreases contributing to the decrease in operating overhead included reductions in salaries and employee benefits expenses of $477,000 offset in part with $145,000 in severance payments related to a workforce reduction and occupancy expense of $156,000. These reductions were partially offset by increases in professional fees of $104,000 and other operating expenses of $344,000.

Loans
Total loans were $388.6 million at September 30, 2014. Mr. Weagley commented: "In joining Malvern, I'm extremely optimistic on our ability to grow loans and diversify our portfolio growth and our ability to initiate strategies to change the mix and broaden our client base. Outstanding loan balances decreased during the fourth quarter driven by higher loan pay downs and maturities during the quarter which dampened the effects of gross new loan origination volume. The current activity coupled with the lending opportunities, will continue to increase the loan portfolio footings in future periods."
The Company's total loans in the fourth quarter of 2014 decreased $6.7 million, to $388.6 million at September 30, 2014, from $395.2 million at June 30, 2014. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $4.6 million and $5.1 million at September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively. The Company had approximately $18.4 million in new loan originations and advances during the fourth quarter. This new loan activity and advances were offset by prepayments, scheduled payments, maturities and payoffs of $24.6 million. Average loans during the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $395.1 million as compared to $426.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2013, representing a 7.4 percent decrease.
At the end of the fourth quarter of 2014, the loan portfolio remained well weighted toward the core residential portfolio, with single-family residential real estate accounting for 59.5 percent of the loan portfolio. At September 30, 2014, commercial loans accounted for 20.1 percent of the loan portfolio, of which commercial real estate loans representing 18.4 percent and consumer and other loans representing 18.6 percent of the loan portfolio at such date. Construction and development loans accounted for only 1.8 percent of the loan portfolio at September 30, 2014. The decreased loan balance in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2014 compared to September 30, 2013, amounted to $8.6 million in residential mortgage loans, $2.1 million in construction loans and $5.4 million in consumer and other loans. At September 30, 2013, net loans totaled $401.9 million.

Included in the overall undisbursed commitments are the Company's "Approved, Accepted but Unfunded" pipeline, which includes approximately $3.5 million in construction and $1.1 million in commercial real estate loans and $6.4 million in residential mortgage loans expected to fund over the next 90 days.
Asset Quality

The decrease from September 30, 2013 reflects the Company's continued diligence to satisfactorily work out certain problem loans. The portfolio of remaining non-accrual loans at September 30, 2014 was comprised of 10 residential real estate loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $1.2 million, nine consumer loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $577,000, and one construction and development loan relationship with an outstanding balance of $78,000, which had originally been included in our October 2013 bulk loan sale. The Company had been required to repurchase this loan in November 2013, and it was placed on non-accrual status during the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Additionally, there are two commercial loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of $504,000 that were placed on non-accrual status at September 30, 2014.
