Old Point Releases Second Quarter 2012 Earnings

· Year-to-date net income improves
· Annualized net charge-offs to total loans declines 58.71%
· Deposits increase $33.3 million

July 30, 2012 Hampton, VA                                                        Old Point Financial Corporation (NASDAQ "OPOF") posted a profit of $1.7 million, or $0.35 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $337 thousand over the same period in 2011.  The increase in net income was due to a reduction in the provision for loan losses, from $2.3 million to $1.2 million when comparing the first six months of 2011 and 2012. Decreases in loans and in nonperforming assets between the two periods allowed management to reduce the provision.  Sales of available-for-sale securities also contributed significantly to the increase in net income between the two periods.

Net income was $638 thousand, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2012, compared to net income of $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2011.  Net income for the second quarter 2012 declined $397 thousand over the second quarter 2011 due to a higher provision for loan losses, a decline in net interest income and higher noninterest expenses, which were partially mitigated by higher noninterest income.

On June 30, 2012, nonperforming assets were 17.75% lower than nonperforming assets as of June 30, 2011.  Nonperforming assets declined primarily due to a $3.6 million decline in foreclosed assets.  Net loans charged off in the first half of 2012 totaled $2.0 million, compared to $5.6 million in the first half of 2011.  Between June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012, average loans declined $74.0 million, allowing management to set aside less money through the provision for loan losses.

Assets as of June 30, 2012 were $872.3 million, an increase of $22.8 million, or 2.69%, compared to assets as of December 31, 2011. This growth in assets has been driven by increased deposits; low-cost deposits in particular grew $21.4 million. As quality loan demand has decreased in recent years, Old Point is investing excess funds in securities that can be readily liquidated when loan demand recovers. Between December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, net end-of-period loans decreased $43.0 million, while cash and cash equivalents and securities available-for-sale increased $70.3 million.

 
 

 
 
The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2012 was 3.48%, down 39 basis points from the second quarter of 2011. The year-to-date net interest margin for 2012 was 3.53%, down 28 basis points from 3.81% for the first half of 2011.  Until recently, Old Point’s net interest margin had improved as higher-cost time deposits repriced to the current, lower market rates. While the average rate on liabilities continued to decrease, the rate of change has slowed over the last year as most longer-term deposits had already repriced. In addition, the average rate on loans decreased between the second quarter of 2011 and the second quarter of 2012, as higher-yielding loans paid off or were renewed at current, lower rates. More significantly, the composition of earning assets has shifted: as average total loans have decreased from a lack of quality loan demand, a larger percent of earning assets have been invested in lower-yielding securities. Since investment securities typically yield less than loans, this shift to lower-yielding investments has had an impact on the Bank’s net interest margin in 2012.

In the second quarter and the first six months of 2012, noninterest income was up $931 thousand and $1.4 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2011.  These increases were mainly due to realized gains on the sale of investment securities.  During 2012, Old Point restructured the investment portfolio, selling government agency securities and reinvesting the proceeds in mortgage-backed securities. These investment transactions improved the portfolio’s cash flows and increased the yields, while only marginally increasing the duration of the portfolio.

Noninterest income improved in other areas as well, with the largest increases in income from fiduciary activities and in other service charges, commissions and fees. Income from fiduciary activities was up $33 thousand in the second quarter 2012 and $89 thousand for the first six months of 2012, as compared to the same periods in 2011.  During the past year, the Trust company opened new accounts and expanded service offerings to existing customers, including an improved 401(k) product. A portion of the increase in income from fiduciary activities was a one-time event, but management hopes to continue introducing new customers to the many services Trust offers. Other service charges, commissions and fees grew $59 thousand and $119 thousand for the second quarter and first six months 2012, respectively, over the same periods in 2011.  The increases in other service charges, commissions and fees were due to increased revenues from merchant processing services and investment brokerage services. Old Point has been focusing on diversifying noninterest income in response to declining interest income and new regulatory restrictions on some sources of noninterest income.

 
 

 
 
Old Point’s noninterest expense increased $448 thousand and $830 thousand between the second quarter and first six months, respectively, of 2011 and 2012. These increases were mainly due to growth in salaries and benefits, which was impacted by several management decisions made during the year. In 2012, Old Point made early retirement offers to eligible employees, which increased salaries and benefits expense in 2012 but will decrease it in future years. Salaries and benefits expense was also impacted by the filling of several higher-level positions in 2011 and 2012. These positions, which were in the private banking and commercial lending areas, were part of the Company’s strategic initiative to expand the corporate banking line of business and focus on increasing loans and noninterest income. Specifically, these positions focused on increasing small business lending, treasury services, and lending in areas other than commercial real estate.

Smaller increases in noninterest expense were also seen in the categories of data processing and losses on foreclosed assets for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the same periods in 2011. Data processing expenses increased as Old Point added new services at both the Bank and Trust, as discussed above. Losses on foreclosed assets increased as Old Point continues to work to reduce its nonperforming assets.

The increases in noninterest expense for the first half of 2012 were partially offset by decreases in FDIC insurance expense and foreclosed assets expense of $105 thousand and $81 thousand, respectively. FDIC insurance expense declined due to regulatory changes effective April 1, 2011 in the method for calculating this expense. Expenses for the maintenance of foreclosed assets have declined as Old Point has worked successfully to sell these assets. Between June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012, foreclosed assets decreased $3.6 million, or 33.02%, causing expenses to decline as well.

In the second quarter 2012, Old Point participated in a number of community initiatives and events, including the Dismal Swamp Stomp, 100 Black Men Gala, Virginia Beach SPCA’s Spring Gala, American Red Cross’ Dress Down Under, Foodbank of the Virginia Peninsula’s Tastefully Yours fundraiser and the Blackbeard Pirate Festival.
