Territorial Bancorp Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2010 Results


HONOLULU, Nov. 4, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Territorial Bancorp Inc. (Nasdaq:TBNK) (the "Company"), the holding company parent of Territorial Savings Bank, reported net income rose by 329.9% to $3.1 million, or $0.28 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $729,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors today approved a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.07 per share. The dividend is expected to be paid on December 2, 2010 to stockholders of record as of November 18, 2010.

Allan Kitagawa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said "We are pleased with our results for the third quarter of 2010. We continue our focus on growing our deposit base and loan portfolio." 

For the three months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, net interest income was $11.7 million and $10.4 million, respectively. Net interest income rose by $1.3 million, or 12.8%, primarily as a result of a $1.2 million, or 25.2% decrease in interest expense. The decrease in interest expense occurred as the Company reduced the interest rates paid on deposits. The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $118,000 compared to $10,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company earned $1.0 million in non-interest income compared to a loss of $1.4 million of non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  This growth in non-interest income occurred as a result of there being no other-than-temporary impairment loss on securities for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to an impairment loss on securities of $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009. This was partially offset by a $105,000 reduction in service fees on loan and deposit accounts and a $100,000 reduction in gain on sale of loans for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same quarter last year.  Non-interest expense totaled $7.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Salaries and employee benefits expense and other general and administrative expenses rose by $189,000 and $140,000, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period last year. A significant portion of this increase is related to our conversion to a publicly-held company. The increase in these expenses was offset by the absence in the quarter ended September 30, 2010 of a $507,000 loss on extinguishment of debt related to the payoff of subordinated debentures that occurred in the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Total assets at September 30, 2010 increased by $51.7 million, or 3.7% to $1.441 billion compared to $1.389 billion at December 31, 2009.  Cash and cash equivalents increased to $174.8 million at September 30, 2010 from $136.0 million at December 31, 2009, primarily due to an increase in deposits. Loans receivable, net of allowances for loan losses, increased to $637.8 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $597.7 million at December 31, 2009.  Deposits increased to $1.079 billion at September 30, 2010 from $1.015 billion at December 31, 2009. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased to $105.2 million at September 30, 2010 from $130.2 million at December 31, 2009 as the Company paid off $25.0 million of borrowings which matured in the first quarter of 2010. Total stockholders' equity increased to $225.8 million at September 30, 2010 from $219.7 million at December 31, 2009. 

 Asset quality remained strong. Total delinquent loans ninety days or more past due and not accruing interest was $291,000 at September 30, 2010, compared to $272,000 at December 31, 2009.  Non-performing assets at September 30, 2010 totaled $509,000, or 0.04% of total assets, compared to $679,000, or 0.05% of total assets, at December 31, 2009.  The allowance for loan losses was $1.6 million at September 30, 2010 and $1.7 million December 31, 2009. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.25% at September 30, 2010 and 0.28% at December 31, 2009.
