First Community Bancshares, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2010 Results, Quarterly Dividend, and Restatement of Allowance for Loan Losses for Prior Periods


BLUEFIELD, Va., July 27, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Community Bancshares, Inc. (Nasdaq:FCBC) (www.fcbinc.com) (the "Company") today reported net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, of $5.13 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share.

Commenting on second quarter results, Chief Executive Officer John M. Mendez stated, "We are pleased to see the continuation of solid earnings and credit measures through the second quarter of 2010. Compared to the same quarter in 2009, earnings available to common stockholders improved by 181% in the second quarter of 2010 and earnings per share increased by 107% in the second quarter of 2010 from $0.14 to $0.29 per common share. Core earnings also improved by 4% in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period on the prior year. Second quarter earnings closely parallel the first quarter of this year and appear to reflect stabilization of operations in the current economy and credit cycle."

Mendez continued, "We are also encouraged by the continued strong performance of our loan portfolio in the face of a difficult credit environment, high unemployment and a sluggish economic recovery. For the second quarter of 2010, total delinquencies within our loan portfolio were 1.70% which is a substantial decrease from total delinquencies of 2.35% in the first quarter of this year and non-accrual loans were essentially unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2010. Although higher than historic levels through March 31, 2010, the most recent date for which data is available, our asset quality metrics compare favorably to our peers during this credit cycle."

Additionally, the board of directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend to common stockholders of ten cents ($0.10) per common share. The quarterly dividend is payable to common stockholders of record on August 13, 2010, and is expected to be paid on or about August 27, 2010. The current dividend reflects the Company's practice of paying dividends based on a review of the results of the previous quarter.

As a result of a routine internal audit, the Company determined there was a computational error in the model that the Company uses to calculate the quantitative basis for its allowance for loan losses. In connection with its determination of the appropriate loan loss reserve at December 31, 2008, the Company made certain modifications to its loan loss reserve model with respect to a $130.76 million pool of loans. However, in calculating the loan loss reserves for this pool of loans, the historical quarterly net charge-off rates were not annualized as was the case with all other quarterly loss rates in the model. Based on the Company's modeling using the corrected computations, the Company, in consultation with the audit committee of the Board of Directors, determined that the amount of the allowance for loan losses should be increased by an aggregate of $2.55 million for the period beginning December 31, 2008 and ending March 31, 2010. 

The Company will be filing amendments to its Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009, September 30, 2009, and March 31, 2010, to correct for these computational errors and make other required disclosures. The financial tables included in this press release present the "As Reported" and "As Revised" amounts for the periods indicated to reflect the correction of these computational errors.

Second Quarter 2010 Highlights –

  • The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 110 basis points, an increase from 97 basis points in the first quarter of 2010.
  • Total loan delinquencies of 30 days or more, including non-accrual loans, as a percent of total loans were 1.70%, a decrease from 2.35% in the first quarter of 2010.
  • Net interest margin for the second quarter was 3.92%, up 30 basis points from the comparable quarter of 2009.
  • Net interest income increased $2.22 million, or 13.61%, from the second quarter of 2009.
  • Tangible book value per common share increased to $9.95, up $0.88 from the quarter ended December 31, 2009.
  • The Company remains "well-capitalized" with a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.6%, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.3%, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.7% at June 30, 2010.

Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest margin for the second quarter of 2010 was 3.92%. Net interest income was $18.54 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $2.22 million, or 13.61%, from the second quarter of 2009. Interest income was $26.16 million for the second quarter of 2010, a slight decrease of $34 thousand, or 0.13%, from the second quarter of 2009. The yield on loans decreased to 6.04% for the second quarter of 2010 from 6.19% in the same period in the prior year, while average loans increased $127.94 million to $1.40 billion for the second quarter 2010. The increase in the average loans is primarily due to the acquisition of TriStone Community Bank in July 2009. The Company continued to maintain a high level of liquidity with average cash balances of $72.78 million in the second quarter of 2010. 

Second quarter 2010 interest expense was $7.61 million, a decrease of $2.26 million, or 22.85%, from the second quarter of 2009. Second quarter 2010 deposit costs decreased $1.97 million compared to the second quarter of 2009, which was primarily due to a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits of 65 basis points to 1.43% for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in the prior year. Compared to the second quarter of 2009, interest costs on borrowings decreased $285 thousand to $2.51 million for the second quarter of 2010, while the average balance decreased $19.63 million for the comparable periods due to the redemption and restructuring of various wholesale borrowings. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 58 basis points during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $51.44 million, or 2.99% for the second quarter of 2010 compared with the second quarter of 2009, which included a decrease of $12.30 million in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings.

Noninterest Income

During the second quarter of 2010, wealth management revenues decreased $121 thousand, or 10.68%, to $1.01 million from the second quarter of 2009, which was primarily due to the settlement of several large estates in the prior year. The Wealth Management Division reported $806 million in assets under management at June 30, 2010. Service charges on deposit accounts were $3.35 million for the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $144 thousand, or 4.12%, from the second quarter of 2009. Insurance commissions were $1.39 million for the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $250 thousand, or 15.25%.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2010 increased $557 thousand, or 3.47%, compared to the second quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to salaries and employee benefits which increased $1.08 million, or 14.61%, in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in the prior year.  The branches of TriStone Community Bank, which the company acquired in July 2009, accounted for an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $359 thousand during the comparable periods. Excluding these branches, the remainder of the Company presented an overall increase in salaries and benefits of $723 thousand in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of the prior year.  Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") deposit insurance premiums decreased $577 thousand, or 44.83% in the second quarter of 2010, compared to the second quarter of 2009 when the FDIC levied a special assessment. The efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2010 was 58.26% compared to 58.15% in the second quarter of 2009.  

Credit Quality

The Company's loan quality measures at June 30, 2010, continue to compare favorably to the Company's peer group of bank holding companies with total assets between $1 and $3 billion, as reported by the Federal Reserve. Total loan delinquencies of 30 days or more, including non-accrual loans, as a percent of total loans were 1.70% at June 30, 2010, a decrease from 2.35% at March 31, 2010, and 2.32% at December 31, 2009. The ratio of allowance for loan losses as a percent of loans held for investment was 1.79% at June 30, 2010, compared to 1.76% at March 31, 2010, and 1.74% at December 31, 2009.

Total non-performing assets, which include other real estate owned, were 1.10% of total assets at June 30, 2010, 0.97% at both March 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009. Non-performing loans as a percentage of loans held for investment remained stable at 1.26% for the periods ended June 30, 2010, March 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009.

Balance Sheet

Consolidated assets were $2.25 billion at June 30, 2010. At June 30, 2010, total stockholders' equity was $267.93 million, resulting in a book value per common share outstanding of $15.05, compared to total stockholders' equity of $252.27 million and a book value per common share of $14.20 at December 31, 2009. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company paid a $0.10 per share dividend on common shares. 2010 marks the Company's 25th consecutive year of dividends to shareholders.

Non-GAAP Presentations

The Company prepares its financial statements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or "GAAP". However, this press release also refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe, when considered together with GAAP financial measures, provide investors with important information regarding our operational performance. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Core earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that reflects net income excluding non-recurring income and expense items, taxes, loan loss provisions, losses on other real estate owned, as well as gains, losses, and impairment losses on securities from net income. These excluded items are difficult to predict and we believe that core earnings provides the Company and investors with a valuable tool to evaluate the company's financial results.

The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that is computed by dividing core non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and core non-interest income. We believe that this measure provides investors with important information about our operating efficiency. Comparison of out adjusted efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible because other companies may calculate the adjusted efficiency ratio differently.
