Announces Positive 2010 Results
   
Net Income and Performance Indices Rise
  For Immediate Release
BIRMINGHAM, Mich., Feb. 9, 2011 — Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc. (BBBI.OB), the holding company for Bank of Birmingham, today reported substantial improvement in earnings and performance indices for 2010.
The announcement was made by Robert E. Farr, President & Chief Executive Officer.
2010 The Corporation reported net income of $238,000, and $0.13 per diluted common share, a sharp turnaround from the year-earlier net loss of $1,988,000, or $1.10 per diluted common share. The positive earnings represent the Corporation’s first full year of profitability and the third consecutive quarter of net income.
The positive earnings results reflect double-digit increases in both net interest income and noninterest income, plus a reduction in non-interest expense. Net interest income rose 63.6% to $4,412,000, from $2,697,000 for 2009. The improvement was aided by a fractional reduction in interest expense, reflecting successful growth in local deposits, versus wholesale deposits which traditionally carry higher interest burdens. Non-interest income increased 47.3% to $126,000, from $85,000 at the close of 2009. The improvement in net interest income reflects a 26% jump in total loans, plus a 23% rise in net interest margin. Net interest margin stood at a healthy 4.3% at the close of the year.
Q4-2010 Net income rose to $121,000, or $0.07 per diluted common share, from a net loss of $1,045,000, or $0.58 per diluted common share, for Q4-2009. Included in the Q4-2009 net loss is a onetime charge of $609,330 for the consolidation of the Bloomfield branch office into the headquarters on Woodward in Birmingham.
Key balance-sheet entries were likewise positive. At the close of the quarter, total assets were up 19.1% to $110,335,000, as the Corporation continued its focus on quality organic loan growth in core market areas. Deposits jumped 19.4% to $97,250,000. Total loans increased 26% to $100,379,000. The 2010 loan total includes SBA lending. The Corporation expanded the portfolio of products available to customers by providing SBA lending to commercial customers. Additionally, the Corporation started a residential mortgage lending operation, which also represents a new, growing commercial-lending market for the Bank.
Mr. Farr noted that the Bank has a laser focus on credit quality. Non-performing assets totaled $298,000 at 2010, representing only 0.30% of total loans outstanding. The Bank is well provisioned with the allowance for loan losses at 1.44% and 1.47% at the close of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Most importantly, the Bank remained well capitalized and maintains an 8.2% Tier 1 capital ratio.

Mr. Farr said the Bank is generally optimistic about 2011.
“The auto industry has re-awakened and domestic production is increasing. We are well positioned in the heart of a dynamic market. Oakland County is consistently ranked among the nation’s most affluent counties. We have a strong team, which is now concentrated in one location. This will generate new synergy. We are well capitalized, including the $3.4 million in TARP dollars that will help us to continue to grow our balance sheet. We have pristine asset quality. We expect our SBA lending to increase substantially. In fact, we expect to record a first-half 2011 gain on the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans sold in the fourth quarter of 2010. We also expect our new residential mortgage operations to contribute to profitability in 2011.”
