SHIPPENSBURG, Pa., Jan. 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq:ORRF), the parent company of Orrstown Bank (the "Bank"), announced earnings for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014. Net income was $19.1 million and $29.1 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2.9 million and $10.0 million for the same periods in 2013. Net income for the 2014 periods benefited from the $16.2 million recapture of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and higher levels of gains on sales of securities and sales of real estate owned, which, in the aggregate, were $248 thousand and $2.1 million higher for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014 than in the same periods in the prior year. In addition, results were positively impacted by a negative provision for loan losses of $1.0 million and $3.9 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to a negative provision of $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the corresponding periods in 2013.

Diluted earnings per share amounted to $2.36 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, as compared to $0.36 for the fourth quarter of 2013. The recapture of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance favorably impacted performance measurements. For the year ended December 31, 2014, diluted earnings per share were $3.59, compared to $1.24 for the same period in 2013. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 2.48% and 28.78%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to 0.84% and 11.30% for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Thomas R. Quinn, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The recapture of the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset in the fourth quarter of 2014 is a testimony to management's belief that we have turned the corner on challenges the Company has been working through for the past several years, and the negative influences it had on our results. We believe we have made substantial improvements in asset quality metrics, capital levels, and the sustainability of positive quarterly earnings. As a result, the valuation allowance was recaptured."

Quinn added, "We are focused on prudent growth and servicing the needs of current and prospective customers. This is demonstrated by loan growth of $24.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, or 14%, on an annualized basis. Our organization is poised for expansion with strong capital ratios, an abundance of liquidity and new technology initiatives that should serve our stakeholders well in 2015."

OPERATING RESULTS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $8.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, a 0.6% increase compared to the same period in 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, net interest income totaled $34.0 million, a 6.0% increase from the $32.1 million earned for the year ended December 31, 2013. As a result of the sustained improvement in the Company's asset quality and earnings performance, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2013 the Company invested its excess liquidity, previously kept in interest bearing bank balances, into higher yielding securities and the loan portfolio. In addition, lower average balances of nonaccrual loans allowed for greater recognition of interest income. Lastly, the Company has been able to effectively manage its cost of funds, which declined to 0.44% for the year ended December 31, 2014, an eight basis point improvement from 0.52% for the same period in 2013.

The combined effect of these factors resulted in an overall improvement in the Company's net interest margin. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis was 3.20% and 3.03% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis was 3.17% and 3.19% for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses, or a reversal of amounts previously provided, of $1.0 million and $3.9 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to a negative provision of $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the same periods in 2013.   The negative provision recorded in the 2014 periods is the result of several factors, including: 1) favorable recoveries of loan amounts previously charged off; 2) successful resolution of a loan in workout with a smaller charge-off than the reserve established for it; and 3) significant improvement in asset quality metrics. Both quantitative and qualitative factors are considered in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Recent favorable charge-off data, combined with relatively stable economic and market conditions, resulted in the determination that a negative provision could be recorded despite net charge-offs for the period, as allowance for loan losses coverage metrics remain strong. The negative provision for loan losses for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2013 was the result of payments the Company received on classified loans with partial charge-offs previously recorded. As these payments received during the periods in 2013 exceeded the carrying value of the related loans, the excess was included in recoveries of loan amounts previously charged off. As the allowance for loan losses was deemed adequate prior to those recoveries, the amount of the recoveries was recorded as a negative provision for loan losses.

Asset quality ratios have shown improvement since December 31, 2013, with classified loans, defined as loans rated substandard, doubtful or loss, totaling $28.2 million at December 31, 2014, or 4.0% of loans, compared to $56.8 million, or 8.5% of loans at December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans and restructured loans still accruing has increased from 82.8% at December 31, 2013 to 95.0% at December 31, 2014. The improvement in classified loans and coverage ratios is the direct result of the efforts of our Special Assets Group during 2014, and their ability to work out loans or obtain credit enhancements to mitigate the Bank's risk of loss.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income, excluding securities gains, totaled $4.3 million and $16.9 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $4.1 million and $17.5 million for the same periods in 2013. Several factors contributed to the lower noninterest income, excluding securities gains for the year ended December 31, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. During the past several quarters, there has been a reduction in the number of customers refinancing their residential mortgages and new home sale mortgage opportunities. These events have resulted in lower mortgage banking income, which totaled $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a 27.7% decline from 2013. The Company also experienced a decline in service charges on deposits and other services charges consistent with trends noted in prior quarters as a result of more conservative consumer spending behavior. Partially offsetting these unfavorable variances were the revenues generated by Orrstown Financial Advisors, which include trust and estate fees and brokerage income, and totaled $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $156 thousand from 2013.   Also, other income of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, represented a $434 thousand increase from the year ended December 31, 2013, and is due principally to higher levels of gains on sales of real estate of $447 thousand.   Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 benefited from higher levels of mortgage banking income of $573 thousand, compared to $469 thousand for the same period in 2013, and a non-recurring gain on the disposal of an insurance joint venture.

Securities gains totaled $267 thousand and $1.9 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $53 thousand and $332 thousand for the same periods in 2013. For both years, asset/liability management strategies and interest rate conditions resulted in gains on sales of securities, as market conditions presented opportunities to reduce interest rate risk while maintaining earnings from our securities portfolio.

Noninterest expenses

Noninterest expenses totaled $11.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $11.4 million for the corresponding prior year period, a decrease of 2.7%. Noninterest expenses amounted to $43.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $521 thousand, or 1.2%, from $43.2 million for the same period in 2013. The changes in certain components of noninterest expenses between 2013 and 2014 are described below.

As the Company began to introduce new product offerings, improve the effectiveness of alternate delivery channels and enter new markets, it experienced increased costs in certain categories.   Data processing charges totaled $470 thousand and $1.7 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $173 thousand and $542 thousand for the same periods in 2013. In December 2013, the Company outsourced its core processing system to a third party provider, to capitalize on additional products and services that the provider offers. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company opened its financial services facility office in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, resulting in full occupancy charges during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to only one quarter of expense in 2013.

Salaries and employee benefits totaled $6.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of 2.8% from $6.2 million for the same period in 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, salaries and benefits totaled $23.7 million, an increase of 3.1% from $23.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in salaries and employee benefits on a year to date basis is primarily the result of additions to staff that were hired in the latter part of 2013, allowing for enhanced risk management processes and practices, greater depth in the information technology and operations departments, and less reliance on outside consultants.

Advertising and bank promotions were used to advance the Company's growth initiatives and the introduction of new products and services, including the Bank's first ever advertising on television and increased direct mail efforts that were launched in the first quarter of 2014, and resulted in greater expense in the earlier parts of 2014 than experienced in the fourth quarter of 2014. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, advertising and bank promotions expense totaled $348 thousand and $1.2 million, compared to $535 thousand and $1.3 million for the same periods in 2013.

Real estate owned expenses totaled $39 thousand and $300 thousand for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $22 thousand and $137 thousand for the same periods in 2013. This unfavorable variance is principally related to obtaining updated appraisals on several properties, and the resulting $124 thousand in write downs that were required based on this updated information, combined with a higher number of properties included in other real estate owned in 2014. Collection and problem loan expense totaled $196 thousand and $729 thousand for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, increases of $87 thousand and $55 thousand from the same periods in 2013, as additional costs were needed to execute our remediation strategies and lower risk asset balances.

Offsetting the above variances in noninterest expense, were lower expenses related to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance, and taxes, other than income. FDIC insurance expenses totaled $395 thousand and $1.6 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, a 38.2% and 37.1% reduction from the amounts incurred in the same periods in 2013 primarily because of a lower assessment rate as the Company's risk profile improved. Taxes, other than income, included in other operating expenses decreased from $229 thousand and $939 thousand for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2013, to $119 thousand and $562 thousand for the same periods in 2014, due to a lower assessment rate and method of calculation for state bank shares tax.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit totaled $16.2 million and $16.1 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2014, compared to income tax expense of $15 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and income tax benefit of $206 thousand for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company recaptured its entire valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, which had previously been established at September 30, 2012. It was determined that with significant improvements in asset quality, strengthened capital ratios, and nine quarters of profitability, combined with improving market and economic conditions, that the net deferred tax asset was more likely than not to be recovered, and maintaining a valuation allowance was no longer required. Income taxes for 2013 pertained to state income tax expense (benefit).

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Assets at December 31, 2014 totaled $1.19 billion, a $12.6 million increase from $1.18 billion at December 31, 2013.   Gross loans, excluding those held for sale, totaled $704.9 million at December 31, 2014, a $33.9 million, or 5.1%, increase from $671.0 million at December 31, 2013, and a $24.5 million increase from September 30, 2014. Growth was achieved in the loan portfolio despite the active loan collection efforts, in which the Company collected approximately $21.8 million in pay downs/payoffs, charge-offs, loan sales or foreclosure on nonaccrual loans during the year ended December 31, 2014. The growth experienced in the loan portfolio was experienced in the Company's primary market and supplemented with opportunities in its Lancaster, Pennsylvania office, which opened in November 2013.

Total deposits were $949.7 million at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $50.7 million, or 5.1%, from $1.0 billion at December 31, 2013. Despite an overall decrease in deposits, transaction account balances increased by 3.5% and totaled $706.5 million at December 31, 2014. The Company experienced a 23.4% decrease in time deposits, which declined from $318.1 million at December 31, 2013 to $243.6 million at December 31, 2014. The Company elected to fund its loan growth through sales and pay downs on securities available for sale, rather than maintain its balances in time deposits and, in particular, brokered time deposits. Additional funding came from an increase in short-term borrowings, which totaled $86.7 million at December 31, 2014.

Shareholders' Equity

Shareholders' equity totaled $127.3 million at December 31, 2014, an increase of $35.8 million, or 39.2%, since December 31, 2013. This increase was primarily the result of net income of $29.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, combined with a $6.4 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The Company's regulatory capital ratios at December 31, 2014 continued to improve and exceed all regulatory minimums required to be considered well capitalized. At December 31, 2014, the Company's regulatory capital ratios consisted of a Tier-1 leverage ratio of 9.5%, a Tier-1 risk-based capital ratio of 15.5%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of 16.8%, which represent increases from 8.1%, 13.7% and 15.0%, respectively, at December 31, 2013.

Asset Quality

Risk assets, defined as nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and real estate owned totaled $16.5 million at December 31, 2014, which was a decrease of $9.9 million, or 37.4%, from $26.3 million at December 31, 2013. The decrease in nonaccrual loans from December 31, 2013 during 2014 was principally due to successful remediation efforts resulting in principal pay downs totaling $14.0 million, sales of nonaccrual loans of $2.0 million, and charge-offs of $3.1 million, offset by loans moved to nonaccrual status of $16.9 million.   Restructured loans still accruing were $1.1 million at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $4.9 million from the prior year end, which was primarily the result of the sale of a note receivable on a restructured loan, as well as other remediation efforts. Risk assets of $16.5 million at December 31, 2014 increased $979 thousand from $15.5 million at September 30, 2014, principally due to one new relationship deemed impaired and moved to nonaccrual status, totaling $2.5 million.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $14.7 million at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $6.2 million from $21.0 million at December 31, 2013, principally due to net charge-offs of $2.3 million recorded during 2014, combined with a negative provision for loan losses of $3.9 million. Despite the reduction in the allowance for loan losses balance, allowance coverage metrics remain strong, with the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio at 2.09% at December 31, 2014, and the allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans coverage ratio at 102.2%. The Company's ratio of classified loans to Tier 1 capital and the allowance for loan losses totaled 23.2%, the lowest this key ratio has been since 2010.
