Baylake Corp. Reports Third Quarter Earnings of $0.16 per share.
Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin – (PR Newswire) – October 19, 2011
Baylake Corp. (OTC BB: BYLK) today announced results for the third quarter of 2011.
·
Third quarter 2011 earnings improvement of $1.8 million versus the third quarter of 2010.
·
Net income of $1.3 million or $0.16 per share for the three months ending September 30, 2011.
·
Total loans grew $17.8 million during the quarter ending September 30, 2011, compared to the linked quarter ending June 30, 2011.
·
Baylake’s Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) declined from $15.5 million at September 30, 2010 to $10.7 million at September 30, 2011, a reduction of $4.8 million or 31.0%.
·
Stockholders’ equity increased $3.8 million to $83.6 million, up from $79.8 million at September 30, 2010.
·
Book value per common share rose to $10.56 at September 30, 2011 from $10.08 per common share at September 30, 2010.
Baylake reported a 2011 third quarter net profit of $1.3 million, or $0.16 per fully-diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $0.5 million or ($0.06) per fully-diluted common share for the third quarter of 2010. This represents an increase in net income of $1.8 million, or $0.22 per fully-diluted common share. The improved operating results were driven by a $3.4 million decrease in the provision for loan losses, from $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 to $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2011. The increase in net income was negatively impacted by an increase in income tax expense of $1.3 million from the third quarter of 2010 to the third quarter of 2011.
“The third quarter net income of $1.3 million marks the third consecutive quarter of earnings improvement,” said Robert J. Cera, Baylake Corp. President and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain focused on improving overall quality within the bank’s loan portfolio and remain optimistic that earnings will continue to benefit from future reductions in the provision for loan losses.”
Net interest income declined $0.1 million, or 1.2%, compared to the same quarter a year ago, from $8.2 million during the third quarter of 2010 to $8.1 million for the third quarter of 2011. The reduction in net interest income was primarily a result of reduced loan and investment security yields during the third quarter of 2011. Interest expense as a percent of average interest bearing deposits decreased 27 basis points, from 1.20% at September 30, 2010 to 0.93% at September 30, 2011.
Non-interest expense decreased $1.0 million, from $8.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to $7.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. The decrease in non-interest expense is primarily attributable to a decrease in OREO expense of $0.8 million. During the same period, non-interest income decreased $1.2 million, from $3.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to
$2.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was primarily the result of a net decrease of $0.7 million in gains from the sale of securities.
“We are pleased to report a significant decrease in credit costs during the quarter, which reflects our focus on reducing OREO levels despite the challenges that remain in the real estate markets and overall economy,” said Cera. “We are also encouraged by the positive trend reflected in the net charge-offs to average loan ratio, which declined to 0.64% at September 30, 2011 from 1.73% a year earlier.”
Non-performing assets increased $0.6 million from $34.4 million at September 30, 2010 to $35.0 million at September 30, 2011. As a percent of total loans, non-performing loans increased from 3.0% at September 30, 2010 to 3.8% at September 30, 2011. At September 30, 2011, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans equaled 2.0%, compared to 2.1% as of September 30, 2010. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of non-performing loans at September 30, 2011 was 53%, compared to 70% at September 30, 2010.
Total deposits increased $12.9 million, or 1.5%, from $845.4 million at September 30, 2010 to $858.3 million at September 30, 2011. Total loans increased $1.2 million, from $637.7 million at September 30, 2010 to $638.9 million at September 30, 2011.
Baylake’s total assets and shareholders’ equity were $1.1 billion and $83.6 million, respectively, at September 30, 2011, compared to $1.1 billion and $79.8 million at September 30, 2010. Baylake’s total risk-based capital ratio increased to 13.4% at September 30, 2011 from 12.9% at September 30, 2010. At September 30, 2011, both Baylake Corp. and Baylake Bank exceeded “well capitalized” thresholds established under applicable bank and bank holding company regulatory guidelines.
Baylake believes that it has more than adequate resources available to meet its short-term liquidity needs. As of September 30, 2011, Baylake Bank had $30.0 million in established lines of credit with nonaffiliated banks, none of which had been drawn upon as of that date. Additionally, Baylake Bank is approved to access, subject to pledging appropriate collateral, the Federal Reserve Discount Window for short term borrowing as necessary.

Through Baylake Bank, Baylake Corp. provides a variety of banking and financial services from 27 financial centers located throughout Northeast and Central Wisconsin, in Brown, Door, Green Lake, Kewaunee, Manitowoc, Outagamie, Waupaca, and Waushara Counties.
