ST. LOUIS, October 29, 2012 — For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, Pulaski Financial Corp. (Nasdaq Global Select: PULB) today reported net income available to common shares of $2.5 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, representing a 53% increase over the $1.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share, reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

For the full fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported net income available to common shares of $8.1 million, or $0.74 per diluted common share, representing a 35% increase over the $6.0 million, or $0.55 per diluted common share, reported for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.

Increasing net income available to common shares for the quarter and the year ended September 30, 2012 was a benefit totaling $.03 per diluted common share resulting from the repurchase of a portion of the Company’s preferred stock at a discount from its par value.  During August 2012, the Company paid $6.6 million in cash to private investors to repurchase $7.1 million in par value of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock,  representing approximately 22% of the outstanding preferred shares.

Gary Douglass, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “We were very pleased with our operating results for both the September quarter and for our full fiscal year.  A 35% increase in year-over-year diluted earnings per share was made possible by a 53% year-over-year growth rate in the fourth quarter.  This acceleration in the rate of our profitability was achieved while asset quality continued to improve at a steady pace.  Non-performing assets declined 5% for the quarter and 15% for the year, with the September quarter representing the seventh consecutive quarterly decline in non-performing assets.”
 
Douglass continued, “Our capital management efforts also yielded positive results during the quarter, as we used cash from accumulated earnings and excess capital to repurchase 22% of our outstanding preferred securities at an average discount of 7% from their par value.  Additionally, to limit future shareholder dilution, we repurchased a previously outstanding common stock warrant held by the U.S. Treasury Department.  All in all, we believe much was accomplished in 2012.  We believe our accelerating rate of profitability, combined with fewer problem assets and a more sound capital structure, bode well for an even stronger 2013 fiscal year.”
 
 
 

 

Despite Industry Headwinds, Net Interest Income Remained Flat while Net Interest Margin Showed a Moderate Increase

Net interest income was $11.4 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 compared with $11.3 million for the same period a year ago.  For the twelve-month period, net interest income was $47.0 million in 2012 compared with $47.3 million in 2011.  The net interest margin was 3.75% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared with 3.67% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  The increase was primarily the result of a market-driven decrease in funding costs and a change in the mix of interest-earning assets as Fed funds were used to fund growth in higher yielding loans held for sale resulting from increased mortgage loan originations.  For the twelve month periods, the net interest margin was 3.86% in 2012 compared with 3.67% in 2011.  The net interest margin for the twelve months ended September 30, 2012 was bolstered by the record quarterly high level of 3.97% reached in the December 2011 quarter.

Mortgage Revenues Showed a Substantial Increase on Higher Loan Sales Volumes and Improved Profit Margins

Primarily as the result of increased mortgage revenues, non-interest income increased to $4.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with $3.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  Mortgage revenues were $2.8 million on loan sales of $343 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with $1.7 million on loan sales of $283 million in the September 2011 quarter.  For the full year, mortgage revenues increased 55% to $8.8 million on loan sales of $1.32 billion in 2012 compared with $5.7 million on loan sales of $1.59 billion in 2011.

Mortgage loans originated for sale totaled $381 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with $354 million for the September 2011.  As a result of the continued low level of market interest rates, the Company continued to see strong demand for mortgage refinancings during the September 2012 quarter, but also continued to experience strong demand for loans to finance the purchase of homes.  Mortgage loans originated to finance the purchase of homes represented 41% of total loans originated for sale during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with 50% during the September 2011 quarter.  For the full year, mortgage loans originated for sale totaled $1.40 billion in 2012 compared with $1.43 billion in 2011.

The net profit margin on loans sold improved to 0.81% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with 0.59% for the September 2011 quarter.  The increase was primarily the result of improved selling prices realized from the Company’s mortgage loan investors and the continued control of costs to originate such loans.  For the full year, the net profit margin on loans sold was 0.66% in 2012 compared with 0.36% in 2011.  Mortgage loans held for sale increased 21% to $180.6 million at September 30, 2012 compared with $148.8 million at June 30, 2012.

During the quarter, the Company executed global settlements with two of its largest mortgage loan investors to settle all past, present and potential future make-whole and repurchase claims against the Bank.  These combined settlements totaled $1.95 million and were charged against established reserves for such claims.

Douglass noted, “The continued strong demand for mortgage loan refinancings that was driven by the low level of market interest rates combined with our efforts to negotiate improved selling prices with our investors and control loan origination costs resulted in a sixth consecutive quarter of increased mortgage revenues.  We also again saw solid demand for loans originated to finance home purchases as we were able to capitalize on the strong customer and realtor relationships our loan officers have continued to maintain within our markets.  Finally, the strong loan demand resulted in a quarter-end balance of $181 million in our mortgage loans held for sale, which will once again give us significant momentum going into our first fiscal quarter of 2013 by generating net interest income while they are held in the warehouse and mortgage revenues when they are delivered to our investors.”

Non-interest Expense Was Higher on Increased Real Estate Foreclosure Expense

Total non-interest expense was $9.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared with $8.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  The increase was primarily the result of higher levels of real estate foreclosure expense associated with the write downs of two large commercial properties in the September 2012 quarter due to declines in their estimated fair values.  Also contributing to the higher level of total non-interest expense in the September 2012 quarter were increased compensation and occupancy expenses resulting from the increased mortgage loan origination activity and additional mortgage loan origination offices.  For the twelve-month period, non-interest expense decreased slightly to $34.2 million in 2012 compared with $34.3 million in 2011.

Asset Quality Continued to Improve

Non-performing assets decreased to $61.4 million, or 4.56% of total assets, at September 30, 2012 from $64.4 million, or 4.78% of total assets, at June 30, 2012 and $72.1 million, or 5.51% of total assets, at September 30, 2011.  The Company reported its seventh consecutive quarterly decline in total non-performing assets.  In addition, the level of internal adversely classified assets decreased approximately 1% from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012, resulting in the fourth consecutive quarterly decline in this category.  Equally important, total loans that were 31 to 89 days past due on payments remained below 1% of total loans at September 30, 2012.

The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $2.95 million compared with $3.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 totaled $3.8 million compared with $3.0 million for the September 2011 quarter.  During the September 2012 quarter, the Company adopted recent industry-wide guidance issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC “) that clarified the accounting treatment for mortgage and consumer loans where the borrower’s obligation has been discharged in bankruptcy and the borrower has not reaffirmed the debt.  The guidance clarifies that such loans should be classified as non-accrual and should be charged down to the underlying collateral value less costs to sell even if the borrower is current on all payments.  Following previous regulatory guidance, the Company had historically restored such loans to accrual status if the borrower had made six consecutive timely payments and certain other criteria were met.  This clarification resulted in charge-offs totaling $697,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2012 and a $713,000 increase in non-accrual loans.  While the impact of the OCC clarification accelerated charge-offs of such loans into the current quarter, the allowance for loan losses contained full coverage for these charge-offs resulting in no corresponding increase in the provision for loan losses.

For the full year, the provision for loan losses was $14.5 million versus net charge-offs of $23.0 million in 2012 compared with a provision for loan losses of $14.8 million and net charge-offs of $16.1 million in 2011.  The significantly higher level of net charge-offs during the 2012 fiscal year was primarily the result of the Company’s required change from the Office of Thrift Supervision’s Thrift Financial Reports to the OCC’s Call Reports effective March 31, 2012.  The Company modified its loan charge-off policy to comply with the OCC’s guidance and, accordingly, recorded $5.9 million of charge-offs during the March 2012 quarter related to loans for which it had established specific reserves in previous periods.  Because these losses had been recognized in previous periods, this change in accounting policy had no impact on the Company’s provision for loan losses or capital position in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

 
 
 

 
 
Conclusion / Outlook

Douglass stated, “Based on the momentum generated in fiscal 2012, we believe we will be well positioned in fiscal 2013 to generate another year of meaningful earnings growth.  We expect this earnings growth to be achieved through a targeted focus in several areas.  As everyone is aware, the banking industry faces a number of headwinds including a flat yield curve, soft loan demand and intense downward pressure on asset yields.  One of our principal objectives for fiscal 2013 is to minimize the potential negative impact that these environmental factors could have on the level of our net interest income.  To accomplish this objective, we are focused on growing our average warehouse balances of mortgage loans held for sale as well as our commercial loan portfolio to help offset anticipated declines in yields on our earnings assets.  In addition, we expect to continue to drive down overall funding costs by further optimizing the mix of our funding base between deposits and wholesale borrowings.”

Douglass concluded, “As to credit costs, we expect that we will benefit in fiscal 2013 from a degree of credit cost normalization as asset quality continues to improve.  Along these lines, we expect to see an acceleration in the pace of declines in non-performing asset levels.  We are also intensely focused on increasing mortgage revenues by adding residential mortgage loan production capacity in the form of additional loan production offices in surrounding Midwest markets and hiring of additional loan officers.  We already experienced a reasonable amount of success in this area in the latter portion of 2012, which should assist us in meeting our fiscal 2013 mortgage revenue growth objectives. Finally, subject to earnings and excess capital availability, we expect to continue our active capital management strategy by repurchasing additional preferred shares in fiscal 2013.”
