MIDDLEBORO, Mass., Oct. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Mayflower
Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ Global Market: MFLR), the holding company for
Mayflower Bank, today reported net income of $375,000 or $0.18
per share for the quarter ended September
30, 2012, compared to earnings of $293,000 or $0.14
per share for the quarter ended October
31, 2011. Diluted earnings per share were $0.18 and $0.14,
respectively.
For the six months ended September 30,
2012, net income was $764,000
or $0.37 per share, compared to
earnings of $652,000 or $0.31 per share for the six months ended
October 31, 2011. On a diluted
per share basis, earnings for the six months were $0.37 and $0.31,
respectively.
In February 2012, Mayflower
Bancorp, Inc. changed its fiscal year-end from April 30 to March 31. As such, financial
information provided herein is for the three and six month periods
ended September 30, 2012, as compared
to the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011.
Net interest income was $2,008,000
for the quarter ended September 30,
2012, compared to $2,095,000
for the quarter ended October 31,
2011. The net interest margin decreased, from 3.66% for the
quarter ended October 31, 2011 to
3.45% for the quarter ended September
30, 2012. Average interest-earning assets increased
from $229.0 million for the quarter
ended October 31, 2011 to
$232.6 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2012 and average
interest-bearing liabilities grew from $225.8 million at October
31, 2011 to $226.6 million at
September 30, 2012.
Non-interest income increased by $170,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the quarter
ended October 31, 2011. This
increase was primarily due to an increase of $159,000 in gain on sales of residential mortgage
loans. Additionally, loan origination and other loan fees
increased by $14,000, interchange
income increased by $7,000 and other
income increased by $10,000.
These increases were offset by a decrease of $16,000 in customer service fees due to reduced
overdraft charges, while gains realized upon the sale of investment
securities decreased by $4,000.
Total non-interest expense decreased by $26,000 or 1.3% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2012. This
decrease was primarily a result of a decrease of $10,000 in compensation and fringe benefit
expense, a decrease of $20,000 in
occupancy and equipment expense, and a decrease of $13,000 in losses and expenses in regard to other
real estate owned. These decreases were partially offset by
an increase of $1,000 in FDIC
assessment expense and an increase of $16,000 in other expenses.
The provision for loan losses was $20,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $50,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2011, a decrease of $30,000. In determining the appropriate
level for the allowance for loan losses, the Company considers past
loss experience, evaluations of underlying collateral, prevailing
economic conditions, the nature of the loan portfolio and levels of
non-performing and other classified loans. Management and the
Company's Board of Directors evaluate the loan loss reserve on a
regular basis, and consider the allowance as constituted to be
adequate at this time.
For the six months ended September 30,
2012, net interest income was $4.1
million, a decrease of $130,000 compared to the six months ended
October 31, 2011. This can be
attributed to a decrease in the Company's net interest margin,
which declined from 3.62% for the six months ended October 31, 2011 to 3.49% for six months ended
September 30, 2012. Average
interest earning assets for the six months ended September 30, 2012 were $234.0 million as compared to $232.8 million for the six months ended
October 31, 2011 and average interest
bearing liabilities were $228.6
million at September 30, 2012,
compared to $230.3 million at
October 31, 2011.
For the six months ended September 30,
2012, non interest income increased by $231,000, as compared to the six months ended
October 31, 2011, primarily due to an
increase of $243,000 in gains on
sales of residential first mortgages, as offset by a decrease of
$15,000 in gains on sales of
investments. Additionally, loan origination and other loan
fees increased by $9,000, debit card
interchange income increased by $11,000, and other income increased by
$15,000. These increases were
partially offset by a decrease of $32,000 in customer service fees.
Total operating expenses decreased by $6,000 to $3.9
million for the six months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease was
comprised of a decrease of $12,000 in
occupancy and equipment expense, a decrease of $14,000 in FDIC assessment expense, and a
decrease of $12,000 in losses and
expenses of other real estate owned. These decreases were
partially offset by an increase of $25,000 in salary and benefit expense and an
increase of $7,000 in other
expenses.
The provision for loan losses for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2012 was $30,000, compared to $107,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2011. The allowance for loan
loss as a percentage for net loans was 0.89% at September 30, 2012, compared to 0.91% at
March 31, 2012.
Since March 31, 2012, total assets
of the Company have decreased by $127,000, ending at $251.4
million as of September 30,
2012. During the period, total investment securities
decreased by $2.3 million while net
loans receivable decreased by $706,000. This reduction in loans
receivable was primarily due to a reduction of $1.7 million in home equity loans and lines of
credit, a decrease of $1.0 million in
commercial loans and mortgages, and a decrease of $173,000 in consumer loans. These decreases
were offset by an increase of $1.8
million in residential mortgage balances and an increase of
$324,000 in net construction loans
outstanding.
During the quarter ended September 30,
2012, total deposits decreased by $539,000. This decrease is comprised of a
reduction of $4.1 million in
certificate of deposit balances, as offset by an increase of
$3.5 million in aggregate checking
and savings account balances. Advances and borrowings
outstanding remained constant at $1.0
million.
As of September 30, 2012,
non-performing assets totaled $437,000, compared to $506,000 at March
31, 2012. The decrease from March 31, 2012 is the result of a decrease of
$189,000 in non-performing loans,
offset by an increase of $120,000 in
real estate acquired by foreclosure. The allowance for loan
losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 970.7% at
September 30, 2012, compared to
390.1% at March 31, 2012.
Total stockholders' equity stood at $22.5
million at September 30, 2012,
compared to $21.9 million at
March 31, 2012. Tier 1 capital
to average assets stood at 8.6% at September
30, 2012, compared to 8.4% at March
31, 2012. The increase in total equity is the result
of net income for the period of $764,000, stock-based compensation credits of
$74,000, and an increase of
$110,000 in the net unrealized gain
on securities available-for-sale. A $0.12 dividend per share totaling $248,000 and Company stock repurchases totaling
$65,000 partially offset these
increases in total equity.
In conjunction with these announcements, the Company also
reported that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.06 per share to be
payable on November 8, 2012, to
shareholders of record as of November 1,
2012.
