FORT WORTH, Texas, May 4, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OmniAmerican Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:OABC) (the "Company"), the holding company for OmniAmerican Bank, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.
Quarterly Highlights
- Quarterly net income of $803,000, an increase of $284,000, or 54.7%, over net income of $519,000 for the same period of 2011. Basic and fully diluted earnings per share increased $0.03 per share, or 60.0%, to $0.08 per share for the first quarter of 2012 from $0.05 per share for the first quarter of 2011. Information at and for the three months March 31, 2012 is unaudited.
- A decrease in noninterest expense of $779,000 was the primary contributor to the net income improvement for the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011. The decrease reflects our continuing commitment to prudent cost management. Additionally, other contributors were increases in net interest income of $369,000 and noninterest income of $335,000 which were partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in the provision for loan losses.
- Solid loan growth of 4.0% was achieved during the first quarter of 2012 as our focus on lending services and the addition of seasoned lenders to our staff enhanced our ability to produce high quality lending relationships.
- Total assets increased $29.4 million, or 2.2%, to $1.37 billion at March 31, 2012 from $1.34 billion at December 31, 2011, primarily due to a $27.5 million increase in loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts. The increase in loans was funded primarily through a $24.2 million increase in deposits.
- Total deposits increased $24.2 million, reflecting the success of the Bank's efforts to cross-sell products to our existing customers and encourage customers to consolidate their total banking relationships with us. Additionally, growth in commercial deposits resulted from growth in commercial lending relationships.
"I'm very pleased with the results we've seen from the implementation of the 2011 strategic initiatives, including our efforts to improve customer convenience and enhance our lending services. It's evident that progress has been made in establishing a total banking relationship with our customers. As the year progresses, we are continuing to enhance the customer experience through our 2012 strategic initiatives," said Tim Carter, president and CEO of OmniAmerican Bank.
Financial Condition as of March 31, 2012 Compared with December 31, 2011
Total assets increased $29.4 million, or 2.2%, to $1.37 billion at March 31, 2012 from $1.34 billion at December 31, 2011, primarily due to a $27.5 million increase in loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts, and a $10.2 million increase in bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by a $5.6 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $5.6 million, or 26.4%, to $15.6 million at March 31, 2012 from $21.2 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease is due primarily to $85.8 million in cash used to originate loans, $31.1 million used to purchase securities available for sale, and $10.0 million in cash used to purchase bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by $51.3 million in cash received from loan principal repayments, $31.0 million in proceeds from principal repayments and maturities of securities, $24.2 million in cash from the net increase in deposits, and $8.2 million in proceeds from the sales of loans in the three months ended March 31, 2012.
Securities classified as available for sale decreased $483,000, or less than 0.1%, to $529.5 million at March 31, 2012 from $529.9 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in securities classified as available for sale is primarily attributable to principal repayments and maturities of $31.0 million and amortization of the net premiums on investments of $1.2 million, partially offset by purchases of $31.1 million.
Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts, increased $27.5 million, or 4.0%, to $711.0 million at March 31, 2012 from $683.5 million at December 31, 2011. The increase in loans included an $18.4 million increase in automobile loans, a $5.8 million increase in real estate construction loans, and a $5.2 million increase in one- to four-family residential real estate loans, partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in commercial real estate loans and a $1.4 million decrease in home equity loans.
Bank-owned life insurance increased $10.2 million, or 48.6%, to $31.2 million at March 31, 2012 from $21.0 million at December 31, 2011, primarily due to the purchase of $10.0 million of life insurance policies on certain key employees.
Deposits increased $24.2 million, or 3.0%, to $831.8 million at March 31, 2012 from $807.6 million at December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to increases in interest-bearing demand deposits of $10.0 million, noninterest-bearing demand deposits of $8.5 million, money market deposits of $7.1 million, and savings deposits of $7.0 million. Certificates of deposits decreased $8.4 million primarily due to certificates of deposit that matured and were not renewed.
Stockholders' equity increased $1.6 million, or 0.8%, to $200.6 million at March 31, 2012 from $199.0 million at December 31, 2011. The increase in stockholders' equity was primarily due to net income of $803,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and an increase of $414,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income to $6.3 million at March 31, 2012 from $5.8 million at December 31, 2011.
Asset Quality as of March 31, 2012 Compared with December 31, 2011
Non-performing assets increased $864,000, or 5.2%, to $17.4 million, or 1.27% of total assets, as of March 31, 2012, from $16.5 million, or 1.24% of total assets, as of December 31, 2011, primarily due to a $607,000 increase in loans on nonaccrual status and a $197,000 net increase in other real estate owned. The net increase in other real estate owned resulted primarily from the loans reclassified to other real estate owned totaling $790,000, partially offset by write-downs of other real estate owned properties to the current fair values less costs to sell totaling $240,000 and sales of other real estate owned properties totaling $353,000.
Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Net income increased $284,000, or 54.7%, to $803,000, or $0.08 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $519,000, or $0.05 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.
Net interest income increased by $369,000, or 3.8%, to $10.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $9.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to a higher volume of interesting-earning assets and a decrease in funding costs. Total interest income increased $265,000, or 2.1%, primarily due to a 19.1% increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 70 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. Total interest expense decreased $104,000, or 3.3%, primarily due to a 33 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 25.5% increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities.
We recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 compared to a provision for loan losses of $400,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that reflects management's best estimate of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 is primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in net charge-offs, to $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $502,000 for the same period in 2011.
Noninterest income decreased by $335,000, or 10.8%, to $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to increases in commission income of $224,000 and gains on sales of loans of $146,000, partially offset by a decrease in other income of $109,000. The increase in commission income resulted primarily from an increase in the sales of investment products. The increase in gains on sales of loans resulted primarily from improvements in the pricing of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. The decrease in other income resulted primarily from a decrease in net income from the rental of the Company's headquarters building to third-party tenants due an increased vacancy rate and higher repairs and maintenance costs.
Noninterest expense decreased by $779,000, or 6.7%, to $10.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 from $11.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to a $316,000 decrease in depreciation of furniture, software, and equipment, a $163,000 decrease in net loss on the write-down of other real estate owned, and a $146,000 decrease in other operations expense, partially offset by a $148,000 increase in salaries and benefits expense. The decrease in depreciation of furniture, software and equipment was due primarily to certain assets being fully depreciated. The decrease in the net loss on the write-down of other real estate owned was primarily attributable to write-downs of properties to their current fair value less estimated costs to sell totaling $240,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a total of $403,000 in write-downs during the same period of 2011. The decrease in other operations expense was primarily attributable to our cost reductions efforts related to conferences attended by employees and insurance. The increase in salaries and benefits expense was due primarily to annual salary increases implemented at the beginning of 2012, expenses related to our equity incentive plan implemented in June 2011, and higher commissions expense reflecting an increase in one- to four-family residential real estate loan originations.
