CFS Bancorp, Inc. Announces Net Income for the First Quarter of 2011

MUNSTER, IN – April 28, 2011 – CFS Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), (NASDAQ: CITZ), the parent of Citizens Financial Bank (the Bank), today reported net income of $472,000, or $.04 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011, compared to net income of $698,000, or $.07 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2010.
 
Financial results for the quarter include:
 
u  
Total deposits grew $34.6 million, or 3.7%, since December 31, 2010, of which core deposits grew $37.2 million, or 6.9%;
u  
Net interest margin increased to 3.55% in the first quarter of 2011 from 3.49% in the fourth quarter of 2010 primarily due to strong core deposit growth and an eleven basis point decrease in the Company’s cost of interest-bearing liabilities;
u  
Non-performing assets increased to $83.2 million from $76.8 million at December 31, 2010; and
u  
The Bank’s risk-based capital ratio was 13.22% compared to 13.32% at December 31, 2010 and 12.63% at March 31, 2010.
 
Chairman’s Comments
 
“We started 2011 with our sixth consecutive quarter of positive earnings,” said Thomas F. Prisby, Chairman and CEO.  “Our net interest margin grew during the first quarter from the fourth quarter of 2010 as we utilized a portion of our liquidity to invest in securities as softer loan demand continues in our local communities.  Our business and retail banking teams continue to generate strong deposit growth with all of the growth being in low-cost core deposits which improves our net interest margin.”
 
“In April 2011, we sold a $2.8 million other real estate owned property for a pre-tax gain of $2.1 million.  We believe this to be the first of several positive non-performing asset reductions that we expect to occur,” continued Prisby.
 
Progress on Strategic Growth and Diversification Plan
 
The Company continues to focus its efforts on reducing the level of non-performing loans, seeking to either restructure specific non-performing credits or foreclose, obtain title, and transfer the loan to other real estate owned where we can take control of and liquidate the underlying collateral.  The

Company’s ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 8.24% compared to 7.44% at December 31, 2010 primarily due to three loan relationships totaling $5.1 million in the aggregate transferring to non-accrual status, coupled with a decrease of $8.4 million of total loans outstanding during the first quarter of 2011.
 
Subsequent to March 31, 2011, the Bank consummated an other real estate owned sale transaction that resulted in a decrease of $2.8 million in other real estate owned and recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $2.1 million, which represents a recovery of a previously recorded charge-off.  The gain will be recognized in the financial results of the second quarter of 2011.  In addition, we have sold one and currently have contracts on three separate other real estate owned properties which will reduce non-performing assets by an additional $450,000 during the second quarter of 2011.
 
The Company also remains strongly focused on its cost structure even though non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2011 increased to $10.0 million from $9.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and $9.5 million for the first quarter of 2010.  The increase was primarily related to write-downs and other expenses totaling $502,000 related to the transfer of three land parcels held for future expansion to other real estate owned.  These parcels were transferred pursuant to regulatory rules that require undeveloped property held for future expansion be transferred to other real estate owned three years from the property’s purchase date.  Medical expense also increased $242,000 during the first quarter of 2011 from the fourth quarter of 2010 due to higher medical claims during the quarter.
 
The Company continues to increase targeted growth segments in its loan portfolio, including commercial and industrial, commercial real estate – owner occupied, and multifamily, which comprised 51.1% of the commercial loan portfolio at March 31, 2011, up from 50.7%, 45.8%, and 39.1% at December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.  The Company’s focus on deepening relationships has emphasized core deposit and relationship-oriented time deposit growth which resulted in a $34.6 million increase, or 3.7%, in deposits since December 31, 2010.
 
Pre-tax, Pre-Provision Earnings from Core Operations 1
 
The Company’s pre-tax, pre-provision earnings from core operations totaled $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2010.  The pre-tax, pre-provision earnings from core operations was impacted during the first quarter of 2011 by lower net interest income and service charges and other fees coupled with an increase in compensation and employee benefits primarily due to the increase in medical expenses.

The net interest margin increased six basis points to 3.55% for the first quarter of 2011 from 3.49% for the fourth quarter of 2010 and decreased 35 basis points from 3.90% for the first quarter of 2010.  Net interest income was stable at $8.9 million for the first quarter of 2011 compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and decreased compared to $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2010.  The net interest margin continued to be negatively impacted by the Bank’s higher levels of liquidity due to strong deposit growth and modest loan demand, which results in a smaller loan portfolio.  The yield on investment securities declined due to reinvesting maturing investment securities in lower yielding investments as market interest rates remained low.  In addition, the higher level of the Bank’s non-performing assets continues to negatively affect the yield on loans receivable.  The Bank’s net interest margin was positively affected by an eleven basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from the fourth quarter of 2010 and a 24 basis point decrease compared to the first quarter of 2010.
 
Interest income decreased 3.4% to $11.0 million for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $11.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 8.3% from $12.0 million for the first quarter of 2010.  The decreases are primarily due to the size of the Bank’s average loan portfolio, which was 4.4% smaller in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010, coupled with increases in the level of non-performing assets during the first quarter of 2011.  In addition, the Bank is currently holding higher levels of short-term liquid investments due to the lack of higher yielding suitable investment alternatives in the current interest rate environment.
 
Interest expense decreased 12.1% to $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 16.2% from $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2010.  The Company’s continued disciplined pricing on new deposits, repricing of renewals of existing certificates of deposit at lower interest rates, and a 68.0% reduction in the average balances of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances contributed to the decrease in interest expense during the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010.

Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense
 
Non-interest income increased $144,000, or 6.2%, to $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2011 from the fourth quarter of 2010 due to $286,000 of higher net gains on the sale of investment securities coupled with a decrease of $163,000 in the net loss on the sale of other assets.  These increases in income were partially offset by a decrease in service charges and other fee income as a result of regulatory changes in 2010 that affect deposit account overdraft activity resulting in clients conscientiously reducing their usage of overdraft services.  In addition, net gains on the sale of loans receivable decreased due to lower origination volumes.
 
Non-interest income of $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2011 was relatively stable compared to the first quarter of 2010 with service charges and other fee income decreasing $144,000, which was partially offset by a slight increase in gains on the sale of investment securities during the first quarter of 2011.
 
Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2011 increased 7.5% to $10.0 million compared to $9.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily due to an increase of $462,000 in compensation and employee benefits expense due to increased medical expenses and payroll taxes.  Other real estate owned expense also increased $465,000 primarily due to three land parcels held for future branch expansion being written down and transferred to other real estate owned at their fair market values less costs to sell.  The undeveloped parcels were transferred in accordance with regulatory rules.  Two of the three properties required write-downs based on current appraisals.  In addition, the Company wrote-off $106,000 of construction-in-progress costs as one of the parcels will not be utilized for a future branch site.
 
Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2011 increased 5.3% to $10.0 million compared to $9.5 million for the first quarter of 2010 primarily due to an increase of $386,000 in compensation and incentive expense related to an increase in the number of full-time equivalent employees and the end of the salary freeze during the third quarter of 2010, a $172,000 increase in medical expense, and an increase in other non-interest expense totaling $148,000 primarily due to the above mentioned write-off of construction-in-progress.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional fees totaling $205,000, or 34.6%, primarily due to the absence of legal fees paid in connection with the annual meeting proxy contest during the first quarter of 2011.
 
Income Tax Expense
 
During the current quarter, the Company’s income tax benefit totaled $34,000, equal to an effective tax benefit rate of 7.8% due to the impact of income from bank owned life insurance and the impact of tax credits.  The income tax expense and tax rate were $232,000 and 20.2% for the fourth quarter of 2010.

Total non-performing loans increased 9.5% to $59.7 million at March 31, 2011, compared to $54.5 million at December 31, 2010.  The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans increased to 8.24% during the quarter compared to December 31, 2010.  The increase in non-performing loans was primarily due to three loan relationships totaling $4.9 million in the aggregate being transferred to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2011.  Other real estate owned increased $1.2 million primarily due to the transfer of future office branch parcels at fair value.
 
In addition, at March 31, 2011, the Bank had 20 loans totaling $7.2 million that were modified and meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring.  These loans were performing in accordance with their modified terms and accruing interest.  The modifications included short-term extensions of maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better match the timing of cash flows due under the modified terms with the cash flows from the borrowers’ operations.
 
Net charge-offs during the current quarter totaled $987,000 and included $703,000 related to one commercial construction and land development participation loan and $204,000 related to two separate multifamily loans.  The increase in the provision for loan losses in the current quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 was the result of these charge-offs.
 
The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was relatively stable at 2.36% at March 31, 2011 compared to 2.34% at December 31, 2010.  When management determines a non-performing collateral dependent loan has a collateral shortfall, management will immediately charge off the collateral shortfall.  As a result, the Company is not required to maintain an allowance for loan losses on these loans as the loan balance has already been written down to its net realizable value (fair value less estimated costs to sell the collateral).  As such, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans have been affected by cumulative partial charge-offs of $6.9 million recorded through March 31, 2011 on $10.9 million of collateral dependent non-performing loans and specific impairment reserves totaling $8.3 million on other non-collateral dependent non-performing loans at March 31, 2011.

Total loan fundings during the period ended March 31, 2011 were $6.9 million, which were offset by loan payoffs and repayments of $12.5 million, transfers to other real estate owned totaling $560,000, and gross charge-offs of $1.0 million.  The Company’s business banking pipeline is improving and management is anticipating loan growth as well as additional line usage on the Company’s business banking revolving facilities (lines of credit) in the second quarter of 2011.
 
Through the execution of our Strategic Growth and Diversification Plan, we continue to diversify our loan portfolio and reduce loans not meeting our current defined risk tolerance.  The Company has increased its targeted growth segments of the loan portfolio, including commercial and industrial,

commercial real estate – owner occupied, and multifamily, to comprise 51.1% of the commercial loan portfolio at March 31, 2011.
 
Participations purchased decreased 5.0% compared to December 31, 2010 and 57.0% compared to March 31, 2010.  The decrease in the first quarter of 2011 was primarily due to a $703,000 charge-off on a collateral-dependent construction and land development participation purchased.
 
During the first quarter of 2011, the Bank sold $1.2 million of conforming one-to-four family mortgage loans and recorded a gain on sale of $32,000.

The Bank continues to have success growing deposits through many channels including enhancing its brand recognition within its communities, offering attractive deposit products, bringing in new client relationships by meeting all of their banking needs, and holding its experienced sales team accountable for growing deposits and relationships.  During the first quarter 2011, the Company increased its core deposits by $37.2 million which included an increase of $10.8 million in non-interest bearing checking deposits.  Increasing core deposits is reflective of our success in deepening our client relationships, one of our core Strategic Plan objectives.
 
While the Company maintains strong relationships with its municipal clients, and municipal deposits continue to comprise an important funding source, the current recession’s impact on municipalities and other government-related entities has resulted in municipal deposit levels that fluctuate depending on the needs of the municipalities.

The Company's accounting and reporting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and general practice within the banking industry.  Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's financial performance and has provided the non-GAAP financial measures of pre-tax, pre-provision earnings from core operations and pre-tax, pre-provision earnings from core operations to average assets.  In these non-GAAP financial measures, the provision for loan losses, other real estate owned related expense, loan collection expense, and certain other items, such as gains and losses on sales of investment securities and other assets, severance and early retirement expense, and FDIC special insurance premium assessment are excluded from the determination of core operating results.  Management believes that these measures are useful because they provide a more comparable basis for evaluating financial performance from core operations period to period and allows us and others to assess the Company's ability to generate earnings to cover credit costs.  Although these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to enhance investors understanding of the Company's business performance, these operating measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP.
