Mr. Reininga assumed the position of President and Chief Executive Officer on January 28, 2011. He replaced David C. Mancuso who announced his intention to retire in July 2010, ending his 45-year career with the Company.
“The Company has benefited greatly from Dave’s leadership as President and CEO over the last 17 years, a period which included some very challenging times for the banking industry,” said Mr. Reininga. “We look forward to continuing to utilize his experience and perspective as he remains a member of our Board of Directors.”
The Company had net interest income of $3.5 million for fourth quarter 2010, an increase of $260,000, or 8.1% compared to fourth quarter 2009. The improvement in net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was driven primarily by reduced interest expense which was $200,000 below the prior year period. Fourth quarter 2010 interest expense on deposits was $121,000 below the prior year quarter reflecting lower rates paid on deposits, despite a significant increase in average deposits throughout the year. Fourth quarter 2010 interest on long-term borrowings was down $76,000 compared to fourth quarter 2009, reflecting both lower rates and lower average borrowings.
Net interest income for 2010 was $13.6 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 15.7%, compared to 2009. The primary reason for the improvement in net interest income was lower interest expense of $6.3 million, which was $1.6 million, or 20.3%, below 2009 interest expense. Interest expense on deposits in 2010 was $4.8 million, or 21.0%, below 2009. Interest expense on long-term borrowings for 2010, was $1.4 million, down 18.1% from 2009.
The fourth quarter 2010 provision for loan losses was $140,000, an increase of $130,000 compared with the comparable period in 2009, primarily related to growth in the Bank’s commercial loan portfolio and an increase in nonperforming loans. For 2010, the provision for loan losses was $2.1 million compared to a 2009 provision of $265,000. The increased provision for 2010 primarily reflected a $1.7 million charge-off related to a single commercial loan customer which occurred in the third quarter.
Non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $695,000, an increase of $58,000, or 9.1%, compared to fourth quarter 2009. The current quarter included a gain on the maturity of an investment security of $142,000, representing a recovery of a previously recognized impairment loss. Bank service charges and fees for the fourth quarter were $456,000, a reduction of $89,000, or 16.3%, compared to fourth quarter 2009 primarily due to the implementation of new federal regulations which require banks to expand disclosures of overdraft fees and allows customers to “opt out” of these types of fees. 2010 non-interest income was $3.5 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 43%, compared to 2009, and driven primarily by gains from the sale of investments of $1.1 million.

Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $2.8 million, an increase of $149,000, or 5.6%, compared with the prior year quarter. Non-interest expense for 2010 was $11.5 million, an increase of $498,000, or 4.5%, compared with the prior year. The higher operating expenses in the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 were primarily related to staffing and benefits increases and higher occupancy and equipment expenses which resulted from the Bank’s de novo branch opening in Depew, New York during the second quarter of 2010.
Net income before income taxes for the fourth quarter 2010 was $1.2 million, an increase of 3.3% compared to the 2009 fourth quarter. Net income before income taxes for 2010 was $3.4 million, an increase of $537,000, or 18.6% compared to the prior year.
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 decreased by $345,000 in comparison to the year ended December 31, 2009. During the 3rd quarter of 2010, the Company recognized a $399,000 tax benefit as a result of a recent change in New York State bank franchise tax law. The change conforms the loan loss deduction allowed under New York State bank franchise tax law to that allowed for Federal income tax purposes.
The Bank’s 2010 fourth quarter net interest margin was 3.11%, a 12-basis point decline compared to fourth quarter 2009, and a 5-basis point improvement compared to the third quarter of 2010. The Bank’s yield on interest earning assets for fourth quarter 2010 was 4.52%, a decline of 50-basis points compared to the prior year quarter, and reflective of general market conditions. The fourth quarter 2010 rate on interest bearing liabilities was 1.63%, a 46-basis point decline compared to fourth quarter 2009, and reflective of the Bank’s continued disciplined deposit pricing. For 2010, the Bank’s net interest margin was 3.21%, an 18-basis point improvement compared to 2009, primarily due to a 65-basis point decline in the rate on interest bearing liabilities offset by a decline in the Bank’s yield on interest earning assets.
The Bank’s ratio of nonperforming loans to total net loans at December 31, 2010 was 0.89%, an increase of 24 basis points compared to December 31, 2009, and a 2-basis point decline compared to a ratio of 0.91% at September 30, 2010. The Bank’s nonperforming loans ratio remains significantly below industry averages indicating generally stable and favorable asset quality. The allowance for loan losses on December 31, 2010 was 40.71% of non-performing loans, compared to 93.26% on December 31, 2009, and 35.18% of non-performing loans on September 30, 2010.
The Bank’s total assets grew by 12.5% to $479.0 million at December 30, 2010, compared to $425.7 million at December 31, 2009. The $53.4 million increase in total assets in 2010 was primarily a result of growth in securities available for sale, which increased by $35.5 million, and higher balances in cash and cash equivalents which increased by $11.5 million. Average interest earnings assets for 2010 were $424.2 million, an increase of 9.3% compared to 2009.
Deposits grew by $57.4 million to $375.8 million at December 31, 2010, an increase of 18% during 2010, primarily as a result of the Bank’s successful de novo branch opening in the second quarter of 2010 and deposit growth within the Bank’s remaining Erie County, NY branches.
