Minerva, Ohio— July 30, 2012 (OTCBB: CBKM) Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Consumers) today reported fourth fiscal quarter 2012 earnings per share of $0.29 compared to $0.27 for the same period ended June 30, 2011. Net income for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012 was $600 thousand, an increase of $41 thousand, or 7.3%, from the same period last year.

 

For the twelve months ended June 30, 2012, net income was $2.8 million compared to $2.2 million for the same period last year. Fiscal year-to-date net income per share increased by 22.7% to $1.35 compared to $1.10 for the same period last year. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012 were 0.87% and 10.29%, respectively, compared to 0.80% and 9.21%, respectively, for the same period last year.

 

Ralph J. Lober, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The current quarter and 2012 fiscal results continue to reflect strong growth throughout our market area. While a 14.6% increase in deposits drove asset growth, significant increases in consumer and commercial lending allowed the bank to deploy those funds into higher yielding asset classes. This growth resulted in a 23.0% increase in year-to-date earnings, a 9.8% increase in book value, and a 7.3% increase in shareholder dividends. We are also encouraged by continued improvement in both the net charge-off and nonperforming asset ratios. These results have allowed management to focus on strengthening Consumers’ market position and reputation across Carroll, Columbiana and Stark counties as well as extend our footprint to the Canton market where our staff at the new full service Jackson-Belden branch will begin serving customers on July 31.”

 

Net interest income for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012 increased by $115 thousand from the same period last year, with interest income increasing by $29 thousand and interest expense decreasing by $86 thousand. The net interest margin was 3.95% for the current quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to 4.03% for the previous quarter ended March 31, 2012 and 4.15% for the same period last year. The Corporation’s yield on average interest-earning assets was 4.38% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a decline from 4.75% for the same period last year. The Corporation’s cost of funds decreased to 0.57% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 0.82% for the same period last year.

 

Other income was $650 thousand for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 compared with $421 thousand for the same period last year. Other income in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 was negatively impacted by a $170 thousand impairment charge on the Bank’s only trust preferred holding. This trust preferred holding had an adjusted amortized cost of $202 thousand as of June 30, 2012 and 2011. Other expenses increased $258 thousand, or 10.7%, for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012 from the same period last year. This increase was mainly the result of an increase in salary and benefits as a result of staff additions in the lending area, normal merit increases that occurred in fiscal year 2011 and an increase in employee incentives.

 

 
 

Assets at June 30, 2012 totaled $334.8 million, an increase of $34.6 million from June 30, 2011. From June 30, 2011, total securities increased by $13.5 million, gross loans increased $19.9 million and deposits increased $36.2 million.

 

Non-performing assets were $1.9 million at June 30, 2012, compared with $2.0 million at March 31, 2012 and $1.8 million at June 30, 2011. Non-performing assets to total assets improved to 0.58% at June 30, 2012 from 0.61% at June 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans increased to 120.55% at June 30, 2012 from 118.90% at June 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans at June 30, 2012 and 2011 was 1.18% and net charge-offs to total loans were 0.04% for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2012 compared with 0.34% for the same period last year.
