JOLIET, IL, October 16, 2015 -- First Community Financial Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCFP) (“First Community”or the “Company”), the parent company of First Community Financial Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results as of and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015.
Net income applicable to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $2.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with $1.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Earnings in the third quarter of 2015 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income and a negative loan loss provision of $813,000, compared with no loan loss provision in the third quarter of 2014. The negative loan loss provision was primarily the result of continued improvement in asset quality and a favorable change in the loan loss history used in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.
Net income applicable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $6.9 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared with $3.5 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income and a negative loan loss provision of $1.6 million compared with a $2.7 million loan loss provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a $4.3 million improvement.

Third Quarter 2015 Highlights
Return on average assets (“ROAA”) improved to 1.17% in the third quarter of 2015 from 0.81% in the third quarter of 2014, while return on average equity (“ROAE”) rose sharply to 12.01% in the third quarter of 2015 compared with 7.81% in the third quarter of 2014.
Tangible book value per share rose to $5.88 at September 30, 2015, from $5.42 a year earlier, and was up from $5.52 at December 31, 2014.
Pre-tax pre-provision core income, a non-GAAP measure, rose to $3.4 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared with $2.9 million in the third quarter of 2014.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased to $8.0 million in the third quarter of 2015, up 9.49% compared with $7.3 million in the third quarter of 2014, reflecting higher interest income and lower year-over-year interest expense.
Total assets increased $105.5 million, or 11.50%, and reached a Company-record $1.0 billion at September 30, 2015 from $917.9 million at September 30, 2014.
Total loans increased 7.8%, or $54.0 million, to $743.1 million at September 30, 2015 from $689.1 million at September 30, 2014, with year-over-year growth in almost all loan categories led by commercial real estate, commercial, and residential 1-4 family.
Total deposits increased 11.7%, or $88.6 million, to $846.7 million at September 30, 2015 from $758.1 million at September 30, 2014. Core demand deposits comprised 64.2% of total deposits at the end of the third quarter of 2015 compared with 57.1% of total deposits at the end of the third quarter of 2014. Noninterest bearing deposit accounts, an important source of lower-cost funding to support loan activity, increased $34.5 million, or 24.7%, to $174.8 million at the end of the third quarter of 2015 from $140.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2014.
Asset quality measures improved dramatically, including a decline in the ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets to 0.71% at September 30, 2015 from 1.37% a year earlier. Nonperforming assets decreased $5.3 million, or 42.0%, from $12.6 million at September 30, 2014 to $7.3 million at September 30, 2015.

Roy Thygesen, CEO said, “Third quarter 2015 was monumental for three key reasons. As a result of continued operating improvement at the Bank, we have reached positive retained earnings again at our First Community Financial Bank subsidiary. The Bank is now able to provide cash dividends to the parent company, which will provide added financial flexibility to the Company and its shareholders. In addition, we transitioned to the NASDAQ Capital Market. Trading on NASDAQ is expected to increase both retail and institutional investor exposure to the Company, improve trading liquidity for shareholders, and, when appropriate, increase the Company's access to the public and private capital markets to support continued growth of the institution.”
“We are also proud to have reached our founders’ goal of eclipsing $1 billion in total assets, a key measure of our success. Our Bank continues to attract new clients, which is clearly evidenced by recent growth in net loans and core deposits. Checking account growth is a direct reflection of our continued focus on developing relationships, not transactional loan growth. We believe the Bank is playing a vital role as a leading financial services provider in our core markets, and our Company’s future is bright.”
Year to Date 2015 Highlights
ROAA improved to 0.94% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from 0.53% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, while ROAE rose sharply to 9.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with 5.04% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Pre-tax pre-provision core income, a non-GAAP measure, rose to $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with $8.3 million for the same period in 2014.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased to $22.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, up 6.1% compared with $21.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, reflecting higher interest income, which was the result of current year loan growth, and lower year-over-year interest expense. Interest expense was lower in 2015 due to lower parent company debt costs, in addition to improved deposit funding and a shift to noninterest bearing deposit accounts.
Total assets reached a Company-record $1.0 billion at September 30, 2015, an increase of $99.4 million, or 10.8%, from $924.1 million at December 31, 2014.

Total loans increased $53.9 million, or 7.8%, to $743.1 million at September 30, 2015 from $689.2 million at December 31, 2014.
Total deposits increased $77.3 million, or 10.0%, to $846.7 million at September 30, 2015 from $769.4 million at December 31, 2014. Core demand deposits comprised 64.2% of total deposits in the third quarter of 2015 compared with 59.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2014. Noninterest bearing deposit accounts, an important source of lower-cost funding to support loan activity, increased $16.5 million, or 10.4%, to $174.8 million in the third quarter of 2015 from $158.3 million at December 31, 2014.

Income Statement Highlights
Net interest income was $8.0 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2014, an increase of $0.7 million or 9.6%. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.31% in the third quarter of 2015, compared to 3.34% in the third quarter of 2014, while the net interest spread was 3.13% compared to 3.14% in the prior year’s third quarter.
Interest income on loans was $8.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $8.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, reflecting contributions from $67.8 million in loan growth, partially offset by newer loans booked at lower average yields due to the ongoing low interest rate environment and competitive market conditions. There were approximately $136.0 million in new loans and renewals during the first three quarters of 2015, at a weighted average rate of 4.13%.
Interest income on securities was $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $848,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The increase in interest income on securities was the result of growth in the portfolio, along with improvement in the overall yield of the government sponsored enterprises and state and political subdivision portfolios.
Interest expense on deposits was $973,000 in the third quarter of 2015, compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2014, which primarily reflected a decline in time deposits, that were replaced by growth in noninterest bearing deposits, along with an increase in lower cost NOW, money market and savings accounts. In addition, the reduced borrowing costs at the parent company helped to lower interest expense during the third quarter, after the refinancing of outstanding subordinated debt with a lower interest rate line of credit.
Noninterest income was $769,000 in the third quarter of 2015, a decrease of $197,000, or 20.4%, which included small decreases in service charges on deposit accounts and slightly lower mortgage fee income of $178,000. Year-to-date 2015 both service charges and mortgage income were up over the prior year despite lower results in the third quarter. Noninterest income in the third quarter of 2014 was $966,000, which included $407,000 in gains on the sale of securities, compared to $251,000 in gains on sales of securities in 2015, as a result of changes in the investment portfolio during 2014.
Noninterest expense was $5.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 compared to $5.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Salaries and benefits were consistent year-over-year and lower occupancy expense was reflected by the purchase of the Channahon, Illinois branch in mid-2014. The third quarter of 2015 included a net loss on foreclosed assets of $58,000 compared to $78,000 in the same period in 2014. Losses were related to changes in property values, as appraisals are updated annually.

Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets were $1.0 billion at September 30, 2015, up 11.5% or $105.5 million, from $917.9 million at September 30, 2014, and up 10.8%, or $99.4 million, from $924.1 million at December 31, 2014.
Net loans (after allowance for loan losses) were $731.3 million at September 30, 2015, an 8.3%, or $56.0 million, increase from $675.3 million at September 30, 2014, and a 8.3%, or a $56.0 million, increase from $675.3 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting balanced growth in all lending categories, other than consumer and other loans, and a lower allowance for loan losses. Commercial real estate loans increased $15.4 million, or 4.4%, to $368.9 million year-over-year. Commercial loans rose $4.0 million year-over-year, an increase of 2.3% to $180.7 million. Residential 1-4 family loans, which grew steadily throughout 2014, were $126.3 million at September 30, 2015

$25.6 million, or 25.4%, from $100.7 million at September 30, 2014, and up 25.3% from $100.8 million at December 31, 2014.
Year-over-year asset comparisons include growth of investment securities to $217.2 million at September 30, 2015, compared with $157.1 million at September 30, 2014 and $170.1 million at December 31, 2014. Strong gains in low-cost deposits facilitated some of the growth.
Total deposits, which increased $77.3 million from December 31, 2014, or 10.0%, to $846.7 million in the third quarter of 2015, compared with $769.4 million at December 31, 2014, and $758.1 million at September 30, 2014, reflected the Company’s focus on growing core deposits from commercial business depositors. Approximately $34.6 million of the year-over-year growth came from commercial noninterest bearing demand deposits by expanding and developing those relationships. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 24.7%, or $34.6 million, year-over-year despite being flat in the third quarter of 2015. Savings deposits increased 26.8%, or $7.4 million, year-over-year and 4.1%, or $1.4 million, in the third quarter. NOW accounts increased 35.1%, or $26.4 million, from September 30, 2014, and 6.7% in the third quarter. Money market accounts increased $42.2 million or 22.2% to $232.2 million at September 30, 2015 from $190.0 million at September 30, 2014 and increased $36.0 million or 18.3% from $196.2 million at December 31, 2014. This growth has reduced First Community’s overall reliance on time deposits for funding its asset growth. Ongoing rebalancing of the Company’s deposit portfolio resulted in a decline in time deposits to $302.9 million at September 30, 2015 from $310.9 million at December 31, 2014 and $324.9 million at September 30, 2014, a decrease of 6.8%, or $22.0 million, year-over-year.

Asset Quality
Total nonperforming assets declined by 42.0%, or $5.3 million, to $7.3 million at September 30, 2015 from $12.6 million at September 30, 2014, and 23.6% from $9.5 million at December 31, 2014. The improvement reflected a decline in total nonperforming loans to $3.2 million from $9.1 million a year earlier, and from $7.0 million at December 31, 2014. Foreclosed assets were $4.1 million at September 30, 2015, which were up from $3.5 million at September 30, 2014 and an increase from $2.5 million at December 31, 2014 due to the transfer of two properties in the second quarter of 2015 from nonperforming loans. The Company had net recoveries of $146,000 in the third quarter of 2015, compared to net charge-offs of $512,000 in the third quarter of 2014. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $588,000 as compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2014.
The Company had a negative provision for loan losses of $813,000 in the third quarter, and a negative provision for loan losses of $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared with no provision in the third quarter of 2014 and a provision of $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, reflecting significantly improved asset quality year over year. Even with this negative provision, the Company’s allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans remains strong at 370.52% at September 30, 2015, compared to 198.73% at December 31, 2014 and 153.02% at September 30, 2014.

Capital Ratios
The Company was “well capitalized” according to applicable regulatory standards at September 30, 2015, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.39%, Tier 1 risk based ratio of 11.57%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.71%, and a common equity Tier 1 ratio of 11.57%. First Community’s ratio of tangible common shareholder’s equity to tangible assets was 9.78% at September 30, 2015, compared to 9.96% at December 31, 2014 and 9.78% at September 30, 2014.
