Westbury Bancorp, Inc. Reports Net Income for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2016

West Bend, WI, July 29, 2016 (GlobeNewswire)- Westbury Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBB), the holding company (the “Company”) for Westbury Bank (the “Bank”), today announced net income of $906,000, or $0.25 per common share, and $2.8 million, or $0.76 per common share, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to net income of $110,000, or $0.03 per common share, and $1.0 million, or $0.25 per common share, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
Greg Remus, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our loan growth has continued this quarter. Additionally, we are pleased that we were able to add two experienced lenders to our team during the quarter in the Madison market, which is new to Westbury. We believe these lenders will add high quality commercial business and real estate loans, in a new market, to our portfolio in the quarters ahead. We are also pleased that our improved earnings and our stock repurchase program have combined to continue to improve our ratio of price to tangible book value and return on equity. Our team is focused on ongoing improvement in our performance and the creation of shareholder value."
Kirk Emerich, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, "We are pleased to add to our solid performance for 2016. The hard work of our banking team has resulted in asset growth and improvements to net interest income and noninterest expense while maintaining noninterest income as a healthy percentage of total revenue."
Highlights for the nine months include:

During the nine months ended June 30, 2016, our net loan portfolio increased by $25.9 million, or 7.0% annualized growth. The portfolio growth consisted primarily of multifamily and commercial real estate loans. As a result of this loan growth, we experienced an increase in total interest and dividend income of $1.8 million, or 11.6%, to $17.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $15.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2016, our deposits increased by $32.5 million, or 8.2% annualized growth. Deposit growth and the use of long-term FHLB advances were the primary causes of an increase in total interest expense of $501,000, or 35.6%, to $1.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $1.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.
Net interest income increased $1.3 million, or 9.2%, to $15.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $13.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015. Our net interest margin was 3.38% for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 3.41% for the nine months ended June 30, 2015. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 5 basis points, primarily due to our loan growth, while our average cost of funds increased by 7 basis points. Our net interest margin declined as a result of the decrease in the ratio of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities to
