Westbury Bancorp, Inc. Reports Net Income for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2016
West Bend, WI, January 24, 2017 (GlobeNewswire)- Westbury Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBB), the holding company (the “Company”) for Westbury Bank (the “Bank”), today announced net income of $747,000, or $0.20 per common share for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.27 per common share for the three months ended December 31, 2015.
Greg Remus, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our earnings for the quarter are down as we have incurred the expenses required to open and staff our loan production office in the Madison market, which is new to Westbury. Our Madison team added $13.3 million in high quality commercial business and real estate loans to our portfolio in the month of December. We believe we will see additional growth and related revenue from this new business enhance our earnings in the quarters ahead."
Kirk Emerich, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, added, "We are pleased that our earnings and our stock repurchase program have combined to continue to improve our ratio of price to tangible book value. Our team is focused, as always, on continued improvement in our performance and the creation of shareholder value."
Highlights for the quarter include:
• | During the three months ended December 31, 2016, our net loan portfolio increased by $9.5 million, or 7.1% annualized growth. The loan portfolio growth consisted primarily of increases in both non-owner and owner-occupied commercial real estate loans, commercial business loans and construction and land development loans. Loan growth was the primary driver of an increase in total interest and dividend income of $329,000, or 5.9%, to $5.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016 compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Our yield on loans decreased to 4.07% for the three months ended December 31, 2016 from 4.13% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in yield on loans is the result of the growth in the loan portfolio in the current low rate environment. |
• | During the three months ended December 31, 2016, our deposits increased by $37.9 million, or 25.6% annualized growth. Deposit growth and the use of long-term FHLB advances were the primary causes of the increase in total interest expense of $127,000, or 21.5%, to $717,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 compared to $590,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Our cost of deposits and interest-bearing liabilities increased to 0.46% for the three months ended December 31, 2016 from 0.41% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. The increase in cost is the result of a change in the composition of our interest bearing deposits, with the average balance of higher cost certificates of deposit increasing by $26.7 million in the current year quarter over the prior year quarter and the average balance of lower cost checking, savings and money market accounts increasing by only $17.3 million between these same periods. Additionally, the average balance of non-interest bearing demand deposits increased by $8.9 million between these same periods which |

helped hold the increase in our overall cost of deposits and interest-bearing liabilities to only 5 basis points.
• | Net interest income increased $202,000, or 4.0%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016 compared to $5.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Our net interest margin was 3.30% for the three months ended December 31, 2016 compared to 3.42% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. |
• | Non-performing assets were $703,000, or 0.10% of total assets, at December 31, 2016, compared to $661,000, or 0.09% of total assets, at September 30, 2016 and $718,000, or 0.11% of total assets, at December 31, 2015. |
• | Classified assets increased to $3.5 million, or 0.47% of total assets, at December 31, 2016, compared to $2.0 million, or 0.28% of total assets, at September 30, 2016 and $2.4 million, or 0.36% of total assets, at December 31, 2015. The increase in the balance across these periods was the result of the classification of one commercial loan relationship during the quarter ending December 31, 2016. This relationship is performing as agreed at December 31, 2016. |
• | Loans past due 30-89 days increased $475,000, or 66.4%, to $1.2 million at December 31, 2016 from $715,000 at September 30, 2016. The increase was concentrated in the single family loan portfolio. |
• | Annualized net recoveries were 0.01% of average loans for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.05% of average loans for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and annualized net charge-offs of 0.00% of average loans for the three months ended December 31, 2015. |
• | Due to the increase in non-performing loans partially offset by the decrease in net charge-offs during the current year quarter, the ratio of our allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans decreased to 775.39% at December 31, 2016 compared to 933.10% at September 30, 2016. |
• | Non-interest income was $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Non-interest income represented 24.26% of total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to 25.03% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. |
• | Non-interest expense was $5.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. This increase resulted from (1) an increase in the accrual for ESOP expense as we made an additional principal payment on our ESOP loan at the end of the ESOP plan year on December 31, 2016 and (2) expenses related to the opening of our Madison loan production office. Non-interest expense to average total assets was 3.12% for the three months ended December 31, 2016, compared to 3.06% for the three months ended December 31, 2015. |
• | During the quarter, we continued our stock repurchase programs. For the three months ended December 31, 2016, we purchased 29,200 shares at an average price of $21.16 per share. |
