Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. Announces  1st Quarter Earnings

Baltimore, Md. October 24, 2011 - Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. (OTC, Electronic Bulletin Board: PATD), the parent company of The Patapsco Bank, announces unaudited earnings available for common shareholders of $128,000 or $0.07 diluted income per share for its quarter ending September 30, 2011 as compared to unaudited earnings of $10,000 or $0.01 diluted earnings per share for same period of the prior year.
 
The improvement in earnings was the result of improvement in net interest income as the impact of a lower cost of funds more than offset the negative impact of the shift in earning assets from loans to investments.  In addition, income tax expense was zero in the current quarter as The Patapsco Bank fully reserved for its deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2011.  Accordingly, taxes on the current quarter’s earnings were offset by a reversal of the related portion of this reserve.  Credit costs, in the form of provisions for loan losses and collection and foreclosure costs on non-performing assets, continue to be higher than normal and are still being impacted by a weak economic environment.
 
 As of September 30, 2011, Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. reported assets of $256 million, deposits of $226 million and total stockholders’ equity of $14.6 million compared to $265 million, $231 million and $14.4 million at June 30, 2011, the Company’s previous fiscal year end.
 
In regards to credit quality, the Company’s non-performing assets were 4.62% of total assets at September 30, 2011 compared to 4.40% at June 30, 2011.  The Company has no loans or leases 90 days past due that are still accruing interest.  The Patapsco Bank remains well capitalized at all levels.
 
Attached hereto is a summary of the unaudited financial highlights for the periods.
 
The Patapsco Bank serves its community from its Baltimore County offices located in Dundalk, Glen Arm and Carney and its Baltimore City office located in Hampden.
