MACKINAC FINANCIAL CORPORATION

REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2012 RESULTS

Manistique, Michigan) – Mackinac Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: MFNC), the bank holding company for mBank (the “Bank”), today announced first quarter 2012 income of $.498 million or $.15 per share compared to net income of $.256 million, or $.07 per share for the first quarter of 2011. The Corporation’s primary asset, mBank, recorded net income of $.800 million for the first quarter of 2012. The first quarter results include a provision for loan losses of $.495 million and negligible ORE writedowns and losses. Operating results for the same period in 2011 include no provision for loan losses, and $.467 million of ORE writedowns and losses.

Total shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2012 totaled $56.095 million, compared to $54.097 million on March 31, 2011, an increase of $1.998 million, or 3.69%. Book value of common shareholders’ equity was $13.19 per share at March 31, 2012 compared to $12.67 per share at March 31, 2011.

Weighted average shares outstanding totaled 3,419,736 for both periods. The common stock warrants outstanding of 379,310 shares were slightly dilutive, at approximately $.01 per share, for the 2012 first quarter, as the market value of our stock remained above the $4.35 strike price.

Some highlights for the first quarter include:

 

   

Strong loan production, with loan balances increasing by $13.156 million. A good backlog of over $20 million of new loans has been adjudicated and is ready to close in the next 60 days. Some of these loans are SBA transactions which will lead to improved noninterest income levels for the next couple quarters.

 

   

Improved net interest margin at 4.17% compared to 3.92% for the first quarter of 2011.

 

   

Core deposit growth of $6.462 million.

 

   

Secondary mortgage loan income of $.262 million, compared to $.079 million in the first quarter of 2011.

 

   

Improved credit quality with a Texas Ratio of 16.84% compared to 24.96% one year ago.

Loans and Non-performing Assets

Total loans at March 31, 2012 were $414.402 million, a 10.62% increase from the $374.609 million at March 31, 2011 and up $13.156 million from year-end 2011 total loans of $401.246 million. Commenting on loan growth, Kelly W. George, President and CEO of mBank stated, “We are seeing good loan opportunities in all of our markets, but are especially pleased with the resurgence of good commercial lending opportunities in Southeast Michigan, which bodes well for our organization and is a good economic indicator for the State of Michigan. We are also highly encouraged with the 1-4 family mortgage lending momentum continuing from late last year during a traditionally slow time of the year in our Northern markets. This should bode well for increased lending activities as we enter our peak mortgage lending periods within the late second and third quarters.”

Nonperforming loans totaled $6.857 million, 1.65% of total loans at March 31, 2012 compared to $9.964 million, or 2.66% of total loans at March 31, 2011 and down $1.136 million from December 31, 2011. Nonperforming assets were reduced by $4.694 million from a year ago and stood at 2.04% of total assets. Total loan delinquencies resided at 1.17% or $4.8 million, almost solely made up of non-accrual commercial loans. George, commenting on credit quality, stated, “We believe that we will have further reductions of our nonperforming assets as the economy continues to improve and ORE properties become more marketable. Our nonperforming assets are manageable and our associated costs are now more in line with a normal business climate.”

Margin Analysis

Net interest margin in the first quarter of 2012 increased to $4.763 million, 4.17%, compared to $4.141 million, or 3.92%, in the first quarter of 2011. The interest margin increase was largely due to decreased funding costs. George stated, “We expect some margin pressure as we progress through the year due to increased competition on pricing for new loans and renewals. More banks are now on the offense and we expect pricing to be very competitive.”

Deposits

Total deposits of $412.088 million at March 31, 2012 increased by 2.82% from deposits of $400.783 million on March 31, 2011. Total deposits on March 31, 2012 deposits were up $7.299 million from year-end 2011 deposits of $404.789 million. The overall increase in deposits for the first three months of 2012 is comprised of an increase in noncore deposits of $.837 million and increased core deposits of $6.462 million. George, commenting on core deposits, stated, “We are now into the third full year of a low interest rate environment. Our liabilities have all repriced and we believe we are at the low point of this economic cycle. Our strategy going forward will focus on deposit retention and further reduction of interest rate risk.”

Noninterest Income/Expense

Noninterest income, at $.606 million in the first quarter of 2012, increased $.029 million from the first quarter 2011 level of $.577 million with the largest drivers of this income coming from the secondary market mortgage area, which totaled $.298 million in the first quarter.

Noninterest expense, at $3.834 million in the first quarter of 2012, decreased $.225 million, or 5.54% from the first quarter of 2011. The Corporation continues to look for ways to control costs and remains below peer levels in terms of salary and benefits as a percentage of total assets residing at 1.58%.

Assets and Capital

Total assets of the Corporation at March 31, 2012 were $506.496 million, up 2.78 % from the $492.790 million reported at March 31, 2011 and up 1.64% from the $498.311 million of total assets at year-end 2011. Common Shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2011 totaled $45.119 million, or $13.19 per share, compared to $43.340 million, or $12.67 per share on March 31, 2011. The Corporation and the Bank are both “well-capitalized” with Tier 1 Capital at the Corporation of 9.95% and 9.24% at the Bank.

Paul D. Tobias, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, concluded, “We are pleased with our first quarter operating results. Our loan production is picking up and our pipeline is strong, which will lead to increased net interest income in future periods. Our credit quality continues to improve and we expect increased noninterest revenue, mainly from SBA/USDA loan sales later this year.”

“Looking forward, we expect to complete our recently announced investment from the Steinhardt family and our common stock rights offering later in the second quarter. This will provide the funding necessary to eliminate our TARP preferred stock and the associated 379,310 common stock warrants which are substantially ‘in the money.’ This redemption and the access to the capital and the funding that accompanies an association with the Steinhardt’s will be significant catalysts in the execution of our long-term strategic plan for franchise growth and increasing shareholder value.”
