-
Preferred stock dividends remained unchanged from the first quarter at $40,000 for second quarter 2013 and declined by $8,000 as compared with the second quarter 2012 dividend of $48,000.

Accruing loans receivable 30-to-89 days past due decreased $0.5 million to $4.3 million, or 1.02% of gross loans receivable at June 30, 2013, versus March 31, 2013 and increased $1.8 million versus June 30, 2012.
Richard J. Cantele, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our second quarter operating results reflect a consistent net interest rate margin and improvement in operating efficiency as compared to first quarter 2013. I'm pleased to report that our second quarter 2013 earnings per share of $0.65 represent a 3.2% increase over second quarter 2012 results.
The current interest rate environment continues to impart pressure on our net interest margin, and competition for quality loans remains vigorous. While the low overall interest rate environment has encouraged mortgage activity, the rise in interest rates late in the quarter has slowed the volume of refinancing activity. Our origination and sale of mortgages during second quarter 2013 totaled $5 million of fixed rate mortgage loans. This volume represented a decrease of $4 million from first quarter 2013, and represented a decrease of approximately $7 million over second quarter 2012.
Past due loans at June 30, 2013 decreased 2.7% from second quarter 2012. We continue to balance the active administration of our past due loans while supporting our small business and retail customers as they navigate through these ongoing challenging economic times. We achieved solid revenue growth of Salisbury's Trust and Wealth Advisory business for the second quarter 2013, which represented a 12% increase over second quarter 2012. We continue to consider our Trust and Wealth Advisory business to be an area of expertise which distinguishes Salisbury from its competition and we look to the continued growth of this business as a future source of non-interest revenue to enhance and diversify our revenue stream."
Net Interest Income
Tax equivalent net interest income for second quarter 2013 increased $39,000, or 0.8%, versus first quarter 2013, and decreased $40,000, or 0.8%, versus second quarter 2012. Average total interest bearing deposits increased $4.9 million as compared with first quarter 2013 and increased $10.8 million, or 2.8%, as compared with second quarter 2012. Average earning assets increased $4.7 million as compared with first quarter 2013 and increased $1.5 million, or 0.2%, as compared with second quarter 2012. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis remained unchanged from first quarter 2013 at 3.54% and increased 1 basis point versus second quarter 2012 from 3.53%.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income increased $25,000, or 1.5%, versus first quarter 2013 and decreased $240,000, or 12.7%, versus second quarter 2012. Trust and Wealth Advisory revenues increased $99,000 versus first quarter 2013 and increased $89,000 versus second quarter 2012. The year-over-year revenue increase results from growth in managed assets and higher fees collected in second quarter 2013. Service charges and fees increased $59,000 versus first quarter 2013 and $28,000 versus second quarter 2012. Income from sales and servicing of mortgage loans in the second quarter decreased by $144,000 as compared to the first quarter 2013 and decreased $97,000 as compared to the second quarter 2012 due to interest rate driven fluctuations in the volume of fixed rate residential mortgage loan sales and mortgage servicing valuations. Mortgage loan sales totaled $5.1 million for second quarter 2013, $8.7 million for first quarter 2013 and $12.2 million for second quarter 2012. Second quarter 2013, first quarter 2013 and second quarter 2012 included mortgage servicing valuation benefit (impairment) charges of $1,000, $33,000 and ($10,000), respectively. Non-interest income for the second quarter 2012 included securities gain of $267,000 as a result of the sale of $2.5 million of US Treasury bonds, which partially offset non-recurring pension curtailment and litigation expenses. Other income includes income from bank owned life insurance and rental income.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for second quarter 2013 decreased $95,000 versus first quarter 2013 and $415,000 versus second quarter 2012. Compensation and employee benefits increased $163,000 versus first quarter 2013, and decreased $107,000 versus second quarter 2012. Second quarter 2012 included pension plan curtailment expense of $341,000 from retiree lump-sum withdrawals. The current quarter includes benefit accrual adjustments and one-time expenses related to staffing changes. Premises and equipment remained unchanged versus first quarter 2013 and decreased $8,000 versus second quarter 2012.

Professional fees decreased $71,000 versus first quarter 2013, and increased $6,000 versus second quarter 2012. First quarter 2013 included legal expenses and an executive search. Collections and OREO decreased $80,000 versus first quarter 2013, and decreased $281,000 versus second quarter 2012 due primarily to decreased litigation and OREO expense. Salisbury had $435,000 in foreclosed property at June 30, 2013. FDIC insurance decreased $11,000 versus first quarter 2013 and decreased $5,000 versus second quarter 2012. Remaining operating expenses decreased $44,000 versus first quarter 2013 and increased $36,000 versus second quarter 2012 due primarily to reductions in other administrative and operational expenses.
The effective income tax rates for second quarter 2013, first quarter 2013 and second quarter 2012 were 20%, 17% and 19%, respectively.
Loans
Net loans receivable increased $10.5 million during second quarter 2013 to $416.7 million at June 30, 2013, versus $406.3 million at March 31, 2013, and increased $39.5 million versus $377.2 million at June 30, 2012.
Asset Quality
Non-performing assets increased $0.3 million during second quarter 2013 to $9.6 million, or 1.6% of assets, at June 30, 2013, versus $9.3 million, or 1.5% of assets, at March 31, 2013, and increased $1.2 million versus $8.4 million, or 1.4% of assets, at June 30, 2012.
The $0.3 million increase in non-performing assets in second quarter 2013 resulted primarily from loans aggregating $1.2 million placed on non-accrual status and a $1.1 million increase in accruing loans 90+ days past due, offset in part by $0.2 million of loans returned to accrual status, $1.3 million in loan repayments and payoffs, $0.2 million in loan charge-offs and $0.3 million in OREO was sold.
Total impaired and potential problem loans decreased $1.2 million during second quarter 2013 to $26.2 million, or 6.2% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2013, versus $27.4 million, or 6.7% of gross loans receivable, at March 31, 2013, and decreased $1.6 million versus $27.8 million, or 7.3% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2012.
Accruing loans past due 30-to-89 days decreased $0.5 million due to resolution of troubled debt loans during second quarter 2013 to $4.3 million, or 1.02% of gross loans receivable, at June 30, 2013, and compares favorably to the prior quarter total of $4.7 million, or 1.15% of gross loans receivable, at March 31, 2013. Accruing loans past due 30-to-89 days increased $1.8 million as compared to June 30, 2012.
Provision for loan losses was $240,000 versus $396,000 first quarter 2013 and $180,000 for second quarter 2012. Net loan charge-offs were $294,000, $70,000 and $138,000, for the respective quarters. Reserve coverage, as measured by the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans, remained stable at 1.10% at June 30, 2013 versus 1.14% at March 31, 2013 and 1.11% at June 30, 2012.
Salisbury endeavors to work constructively to resolve its non-performing loan issues with customers. Substantially all non-performing loans are collateralized with real estate and the repayment of such loans is largely dependent on the return of such loans to performing status or the liquidation of the underlying real estate collateral.
Capital
Both Salisbury and the Bank's regulatory capital ratios remain in compliance with regulatory "well capitalized" requirements. At June 30, 2013 Salisbury's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.23% and 16.48%, respectively, and the Bank's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 8.48% and 13.72%, respectively, versus regulatory "well capitalized" minimums of 5.00% and 10.00%, respectively.
At June 30, 2013, Salisbury's assets totaled $601 million. Book value and tangible book value per common share were $32.45 and $26.30, respectively. Tangible book value excludes goodwill and core deposit intangibles.
In August 2011, Salisbury received $16 million of capital from the U.S. Treasury's Small Business Lending Fund (the "SBLF") program and repaid the $8.8 million of capital received in 2009 from the U.S. Treasury's Capital Purchase Program. The SBLF program was established to encourage lending to small businesses by providing Tier 1 capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion. To date Salisbury has used this capital to increase its portfolio of qualified small business loans by $32.2 million and to augment its regulatory capital ratios.
