Baltimore County Savings Bank
BCSB BANCORP, INC. REPORTS RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 2012
BCSB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BCSB), the holding company for Baltimore County Savings Bank (the “Bank”) reported net income of $639,000 or $0.21 per basic share and $.20 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2012, which represents the first quarter of its 2013 fiscal year. This compares to net income of $462,000 or $0.15 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2011.
During the three months ended December 31, 2012, earnings were favorably impacted primarily by higher net interest income and increased non-interest income as compared to the corresponding period during the prior fiscal year. Earnings were negatively affected by increased provision for loan losses as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2011.
The increase in net interest income during the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2011 was primarily due to declining cost of funds on the deposit portfolio, partially offset by lower interest income from the Company’s loan portfolio, which declined by approximately $26 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.
Non-interest income during the three months ended December 31, 2012 improved in comparison with the three months ended December 31, 2011 partly due to prepayment fees received as certain loans paid off prior to scheduled maturity. The Company also experienced increased commission income from sales of investment products during the current period.
The increase in loan loss provisions during the three months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the prior year was directly related to declines is estimated realizable values of certain problem loans, primarily investor rental properties. The Company also experienced $0.5 million of net charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to the transfer of a $1.5 million land acquisition and development loan to Foreclosed Real Estate, for which specific loan loss reserves had already been established. Specifically allocated loan loss reserves are charged-off as properties are foreclosed upon.
President and Chief Executive Officer Joseph J. Bouffard commented “Earnings continued to show improvement during the quarter ended December 31, 2012, as was also the case during our most recent fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Our interest rate spread has improved and operating expenses remain manageable. Notable declines in nonperforming loans and Troubled Debt Restructurings have been achieved as we push hard to resolve problem assets. We remain focused on the Company’s earnings and asset quality with the ultimate goal of improved shareholder value.”

Tangible book value provides a measure of tangible equity on a per share basis. It is determined by methods other than in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and, as such, is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes the presentation of Tangible book value per common share is meaningful supplemental information for shareholders. We calculate Tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as of period end.
