Hawthorn Bancshares Announces Second Quarter Earnings
Jefferson City, Mo. — August 14, 2014 — Hawthorn Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ: HWBK), today reported consolidated financial results for the Company for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Net income for the current quarter was $2.1 million, compared to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2013. The Company earned $0.40 per diluted common share for the three months ended June 30, 2014, versus $0.29 for the second quarter of 2013 after deducting accrued dividends and normal and accelerated discount accretion on preferred stock totaling $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a result of the Company’s May 2013 full repayment of its preferred stock, there was no deduction from net income for accrued dividends and discount accretion for the current quarter.
For the current quarter, the annualized return on average common equity was 10.83% and the annualized return on average assets was 0.72% compared with 8.13% and 0.62%, respectively, for the same period in 2013.
On a year to date basis, the Company generated net income of $4.1 million for 2014, compared to $1.7 million for 2013. Income available to common shareholders was $4.1 million for 2014 compared to $1.1 million for 2013. On a diluted earnings per common share basis, the Company generated $0.78 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $0.20 per common share for the same period in 2013.
Commenting on earnings performance, Chairman David T. Turner said, “Hawthorn’s positive earnings performance trend is continuing as evidenced by second quarter results. Loan demand is increasing and net interest income levels remain strong. Due to improving credit quality, no loan loss provision was made for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Non-interest income was lower for second quarter 2014 compared to second quarter 2013 due to reduced residential real estate mortgage activity and investment security gains realized in the prior year quarter; but the variance was partially offset by favorable changes in other real estate and repossessed asset expenses.”
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 remained unchanged from the same period in 2013 at $9.8 million despite slightly lower earning assets due to maintaining a strong net interest margin at 3.70% for the quarter compared to 3.66% for second quarter 2013.
Non-Interest Income and Expense
Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $2.2 million compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease was attributed to lower gain on sale of mortgage loans driven by lower real estate refinancing activity primarily the result of higher interest rates experienced during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 2013 and investment security gains of $0.3 million realized in 2013. Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $8.8 million compared to $9.3 million for second quarter 2013. The favorable variance was largely attributed to lower losses recognized on other real estate and foreclosed assets for second quarter 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.
Allowance for Loan Losses
1
The Company’s level of non-performing loans was 4.36% of total loans at June 30, 2014, up slightly from 4.21% at year-end 2013. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized net charge-offs of $0.7 million compared to $0.2 million for the second quarter of 2013. The Company provided $1.0 million to the allowance for loan losses for the second quarter of 2013, but no provision was made for second quarter 2014 after management concluded that the reserve level was commensurate with risks in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2014 was $12.2 million, or 1.42% of outstanding loans and 32.53% of non-performing loans. At December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses was $13.7 million, or 1.63% of outstanding loans and 38.84% of non-performing loans. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2014.
Financial Condition
Comparing June 30, 2014 balances with December 31, 2013, total assets increased $30.4 million to $1.171 billion. The largest driver in asset growth was loans, net of allowance for loan losses, increasing 2.4% to $845.3 million driven by increasing loan demand. Investment securities also accounted for a portion of the asset growth with investment securities increasing 4.6% to $219.6 million. Cash and due from banks also increased 20.4% to $34.2 million. Total deposits increased 3.3% to $988.5 million. During the same period, stockholders’ equity increased 6.9% to $79.5 million or 6.8% of total assets. The total risk based capital ratio of 15.55% and the leverage ratio of 9.00% at June 30, 2014, respectively, far exceed minimum regulatory requirements of 8.00% and 3.00%, respectively.
