PEOPLES FEDERAL BANCSHARES, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL THIRD QUARTER AND YEAR TO DATE RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011
Brighton, Massachusetts, July 28, 2011. Peoples Federal Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: PEOP), the holding company for Peoples Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), announced fiscal third quarter and year to date earnings for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $711,000 or $0.11 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to net income of $779,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. For the nine months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $2.5 million or $0.38 per share, basic and diluted, as compared to net income of $2.5 million for the same period last year. The Company’s mutual-to-stock conversion occurred on July 6, 2010, and therefore, earnings per share are not presented for periods where the shares were not outstanding for the entire period.
Net interest and dividend income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 totaled $4.0 million as compared to $3.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Noninterest income totaled $445,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $430,000 for the same period last year. Noninterest expense totaled $3.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits, and increases in other operating expenses in the 2011 period.
Net interest and dividend income for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $12.2 million as compared to $11.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010. Noninterest income totaled $1.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $1.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010, which included a $210,000 gain on the sales of available-for-sale securities. Noninterest expense totaled $9.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $8.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits, increased professional fees associated with the operation as a public company and increases in other operating expenses in the 2011 period.
Since September 30, 2010, the Company's balance sheet has decreased by $8.0 million or 1.47%, to $537.9 million although net loans increased 6.4%. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $47.3 million to $66.6 million at June 30, 2011 from $113.9 million at September 30, 2010. Loans, net increased by $24.2 million or 6.41% during the period. The loan increase was primarily due to lending in the residential and commercial real estate loan categories. As of June 30, 2011, the decrease in cash and cash equivalents was mainly due to the funding of loan originations, the purchase of securities and bank-owned life insurance and the repayment of long-term FHLB borrowings during the period. Deposits decreased by $750,000 to $390.1 million at June 30, 2011 from $390.8 million at September 30, 2010.
Non performing assets totaled $2.2 million or 0.41% of total assets at June 30, 2011, as compared to $3.0 million or 0.54% of total assets at September 30, 2010. Classified assets increased during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 to $12.9 million as compared to $6.7 million as of September 30, 2010. The increase in classified assets is primarily due to one lending relationship, totaling $4.9 million, collateralized by a construction loan and further collateralized by other residential properties, being classified substandard during the period. The Company provided an additional $340,000 to the provision for loan losses during the nine months ended June 30, 2011, due to a $24.2 million increase in net loans as well as the increased amount of classified loans.
Maurice H. Sullivan, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented that, “Peoples Federal Bancshares, Inc. recently completed its first year as a public company and during this past year our stockholders have provided tremendous support for the Company. The Company is committed to managing the organization with an emphasis on judicious loan growth. As of June 30, 2011, we have achieved loan growth while maintaining good quality as evidenced by the low non performing assets. In addition, during the quarter recently ended, our full service branch location in West Newton, Massachusetts began operation. This new branch is our first location in Middlesex County, Massachusetts and we look forward to expanding our franchise and serving customers in that portion of the greater Boston area.”
