Earnings Summary

Second quarter 2012 compared with first quarter 2012

For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, net income decreased by $160,000 to $831,000 compared to net income of $991,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in net income resulted from lower interest income due to a lower rate environment, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in non-interest expense as we continue to expand geographically, offset by an increase in non-interest income.

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 decreased $155,000 to $12.8 million compared to $13.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 as the overall yield on loans decreased 22 basis points to 4.35%. In addition to adding new loans at lower rates to our portfolio, the continuous decline in the current rate environment has led our commercial and residential customers to refinance and modify their current loans. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 13 basis points to 3.93% from 4.06% for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The cost of deposits decreased 5 basis points to 0.65%, reflecting the already low level of deposit pricing.

Provision for loan losses was $520,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $330,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The increase in the provision was in part due to growth in our residential and commercial loan portfolios. The provision recorded was based upon management's analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2012.

Noninterest income increased $693,000 or 53% to $2.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 mainly due to a $333,000 increase in gain on sale of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans and an increase of $267,000 in other noninterest income.

Noninterest expense increased $532,000 or 4% to $13.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $12.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Increases occurred primarily in salaries and employee benefits, marketing and other operating expenses. We opened our 18th branch in Bloomfield, Connecticut during the quarter to support our continued growth and expansion.

Second quarter 2012 compared with second quarter 2011

For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, net income increased by $5.5 million to $831,000 compared to a net loss of $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. The increase in net income resulted from an increase in net interest income and noninterest income, a decrease in noninterest expense due to incurring $851,000 in the phasing out the Phantom Stock Plan and $6.9 million expense related to the funding of Farmington Bank Community Foundation, Inc. during the second quarter of 2011, offset by an increase in the provision for loan losses.

Net interest income increased $885,000 or 7% to $12.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $11.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, driven by growth in average interest-earning assets and lower funding costs. Total average interest-earning assets increased $104.4 million or 7%, to $1.5 billion reflecting growth in the loan portfolio. Loan yields were down 43 basis points to 4.35% and yields on investments decreased 23 basis points to 1.13% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2011. The yield on average interest-earning assets declined 15 basis points to 3.93% and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 13 basis points to 81 basis points. Net interest margin was 3.32% for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to 3.31% for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Provision for loan losses was $520,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $300,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. The increase in the provision was in part due to growth in our residential and commercial loan portfolios. The provision recorded was based upon management's analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2012.

Noninterest income increased $577,000 or 40% to $2.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  Gain on sale of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans increased $232,000 or 117% to $431,000 compared to $199,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Bank owned life insurance income increased $147,000 reflecting the purchase of additional insurance within the past twelve months and other noninterest income increased $136,000.

Noninterest expense decreased $6.8 million to $13.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 compared to $20.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. As part of our initial public offering in June 2011, we incurred a $6.9 million expense related to the funding of the Farmington Bank Community Foundation, Inc. Salaries and employee benefits increased $146,000 to $7.6 million compared to $7.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Excluding the $851,000 incurred to phase out the Phantom Stock Plan for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, salaries and employee benefits increased $997,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to supporting our branch openings, providing the resources to sustain our strategic growth and $297,000 related to our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).

Balance Sheet Activity

Total assets at June 30, 2012 remained flat at $1.7 billion compared to March 31, 2012. Our cash and cash equivalents decreased $94.6 million to $36.7 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $131.3 million at March 31, 2012 primarily as a result of an $89.6 million increase in net loans. Our Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston advances and repurchase liabilities increased $39.8 million, offset by a $30.8 million decrease in deposits.

Our investment portfolio totaled $133.4 million or 8% of total assets and $119.2 million or 7% of total assets at June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, respectively. Available-for-sale investment securities totaled $130.4 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $116.0 million at March 31, 2012, an increase of $14.4 million primarily due to increases in U.S. Treasury securities as a result of higher collateral requirements for our commercial repurchase agreements. The Company purchases short term U.S. Treasury securities in order to meet commercial repurchase agreement collateral requirements and to minimize interest rate risk during the sustained low interest rate environment.

Net loans increased $89.6 million or 7% at June 30, 2012 to $1.4 billion compared to $1.3 billion at March 31, 2012 due to our continued focus on commercial and residential lending, despite a $5.0 million decrease in resort loans as we are gradually exiting the resort financing market.

Prepaid expenses and other assets increased $2.2 million or 15% to $16.3 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $14.2 million at March 31, 2012 primarily due to an increase in an interest rate swap derivative receivable.

Deposits increased $20.8 million compared to March 31, 2012, excluding municipal deposits, with the majority coming from small business accounts, savings accounts and accounts related to the opening of our 18th branch in Bloomfield, Connecticut in May 2012. Municipal deposits were $97.5 million and $149.2 million at June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, respectively. 

Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston advances increased $28.0 million or 44% to $91.0 million at June 30, 2012 compared to $63.0 million at March 31, 2012. Our repurchase liabilities increased $11.8 million to $67.5 million at June 30, 2012 from $55.7 million at March 31, 2012 primarily due to fluctuations in cash flows in business checking customers using our repurchase agreement product where excess funds are swept daily into a collateralized account.

Asset Quality

The allowance for loan losses had a slight increase to $17.9 million at June 30, 2012 from $17.7 million at March 31, 2012. Impaired loans increased 1% to $39.5 million as of June 30, 2012 from $39.1 million as of March 31, 2012. Non-performing loans decreased $2.8 million to $13.5 million at June 30, 2012 from $16.3 million at March 31, 2012. At June 30, 2012, the allowance for loan losses represented 1.25% of total loans and 133.01% of non-performing loans, compared to 1.32% of total loans and 108.50% of non-performing loans at March 31, 2012. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended were $320,000 or 0.09%, compared to net charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 of $136,000 or 0.04% of average loans outstanding. Loan delinquencies 30 days and greater decreased $3.0 million at June 30, 2012 to $15.3 million compared to $18.3 million at March 31, 2012.  We take a proactive approach in working with customers to help ensure that they remain current on their loans. Past due loans are primarily in our residential portfolio which is due to weak economic conditions leading to stress on cash flows of our borrowers.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company remained well-capitalized with an estimated total capital to risk weighted asset ratio of 20.43% at June 30, 2012. 

At June 30, 2012, the Company continued to have adequate liquidity including significant unused borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank as well as access to funding through the repurchase agreement and brokered deposit markets.
