“The earnings momentum that started at the beginning of 2010 continued as we booked our seventh consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in earnings during the third quarter of 2011,” said Daniel P. Reininga, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our effective noninterest expense management and continued strong asset quality enabled Lake Shore to realize positive earnings improvement, as well as substantive growth of shareholders’ equity during the third quarter. We remain focused on managing our business to build value in our franchise.”
Third quarter 2011 net interest income was $3.8 million, an increase of 14.5%, or $486,000, compared to third quarter 2010. Interest income grew by 5.4% in the third quarter 2011, to $5.2 million, reflective of a $16.8 million increase in average loan balances, primarily commercial loans, and a $12.9 million increase in average investment securities compared to the prior year quarter. Interest expense for the third quarter 2011 decreased by $220,000 or 13.7%, compared to third quarter 2010, as a result of a 16 basis-point decline in the average rate paid on deposits, partially offset by a $19.1 million increase in average deposit balances.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $11.3 million, an increase of $1.1 million or 10.9% compared to the prior year period. Interest income grew by 4.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2011, to $15.6 million, reflective of an $11.4 million increase in average loan balances and a $26.2 million increase in average balances of investment securities compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 decreased by $440,000, or 9.3%, compared to the same period in 2010, as a result of an 18 basis-point decline in the average rate paid on deposits, partially offset by a $36.2 million increase in average deposit balances.
Net interest margin for third quarter 2011 was 3.36%, up 30 basis points compared to 3.06% for the third quarter 2010, reflecting an $18.9 million increase in interest earning assets and a 27 basis-point decline in the rates paid. Net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was 3.33%, a 9 basis-point improvement over the prior year period due to a $34.3 million increase in interest earning assets and a 28 basis-point decline in the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.
Non-interest income for third quarter 2011 decreased $1.1 million or, 67.6%, to $528,000 compared to the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2010 non-interest income included a $1.1 million gain on the sale of investments. Exclusive of the investment sale gain in 2010, non-interest income declined $46,000 in the third quarter 2011, primarily due to the implementation of federal regulations in the third quarter 2010 which required disclosure of overdraft fees and enabled customers to “opt out” of these types of fees. On a year-to-date basis, non-interest income declined by $1.1 million to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011; primarily related to the one-time gain in sale of securities from the investment portfolio in third quarter 2010.
Third quarter 2011 non-interest expense of $2.8 million decreased $58,000, or 2.0%, compared to third quarter 2010, reflecting lower salary expenses and FDIC insurance premiums and was partially offset by increased advertising costs and occupancy expenses. FDIC insurance premiums decreased by $116,000, compared to the prior year quarter, as a result of changes in how assessments are calculated under the Dodd-Frank Act.
Non-interest expense for the first nine months of 2011 was $8.6 million, a decrease of $86,000, compared to the same period in 2010. Decreases to salary and benefit expenses of $213,000 and a $109,000 reduction in FDIC insurance premiums were partially offset by increased occupancy and equipment and professional service expense.
The Bank’s provision for loan losses for third quarter 2011was $10,000 compared to $1.7 million for the prior year quarter and $265,000 for the second quarter 2011. The $1.7 million provision for third quarter 2010 was primarily related to the charge-off of three commercial loans to a single commercial loan customer. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the provision for loan losses was $295,000 compared with $2.0 million for the prior year period primarily due to the same charge-off described above.
The Bank’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of non-performing loans was 49.45% at September 30, 2011, an increase from 40.71% at December 31, 2010. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.89% as of September 30, 2011, a decrease of 2 basis points in comparison to September 30, 2010, and was unchanged compared to December 31, 2010. The Bank’s ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans remains significantly below industry averages, reflecting its overall favorable asset quality.
Total assets grew $14.8 million to $493.8 million as of September 30, 2011, an annualized growth rate of 4.1% from December 31, 2010. Growth reflected a $12.8 million increase in net loans receivable and a $7.9 million increase in investment securities. This growth was partially offset by reduced balances in cash and cash equivalents. Total deposits grew $8 million to $383.8 million as of September 30, 2011 from December 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase in non-interest bearing deposits. Stockholders’ equity grew $7.8 million to $63.0 million as of September 30, 2011 from December 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase in net unrealized gains on the available for sale securities portfolio and net income for 2011.
