JOLIET, Ill., July 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Community Financial Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCFP) (“First Community” or the “Company”), the parent company of First Community Financial Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015.
Net income applicable to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $2.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared with $1.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Earnings in the second quarter of 2015 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income and a negative loan loss provision of $749,000, compared with a $667,000 loan loss provision in the second quarter of 2014, a $1.4 million improvement. The negative loan loss provision was primarily the result of continued improvement in asset quality and the loan loss history used in the calculation of the allowance for loan loss.
Net income applicable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $4.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with $1.7 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2015 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income and a negative loan loss provision of $749,000 compared with a $2.7 million loan loss provision for the six months ended June 30, 2014, a $3.4 million improvement.
The Company redeemed all of the $4.1 million of 8% Series A Convertible Subordinated Debt and $10 million of 9% Subordinated Debt on June 30, 2015. The Company used the proceeds from two new credit facilities to fund the redemption of the subordinated debt. The credit facilities include a $4.0 million revolving line of credit and a $10.1 million term loan. The revolving line matures in 2020 and the term loan matures in 2021. The credit facilities have an annual interest rate of 2.25% plus the LIBOR rate, which is currently 2.436%. Based on the current interest rate on the new credit facilities, the Company expects to realize a savings of $882,000 in annual interest expense.
On July 15, 2015, the Company announced that its common stock had been approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Trading commenced at market open on July 17, 2015.
Roy Thygesen, Chief Executive Officer commented, “We have accomplished several key goals in the first half of 2015. Asset quality improvement continued, profitability improved, and loan growth accelerated. As a result of our improved asset quality, a portion of our loan loss reserves have been released. During the second quarter, the Company revised its capital structure by replacing higher cost subordinated debt with a significantly less expensive senior credit facility. Increasing shareholder value remains our utmost focus. We believe these important steps taken during the first half of 2015 and our NASDAQ listing will move the organization forward in a meaningful way.”
Thygesen continued, “Although we continue to see some pricing pressure on the lending side, we do not compromise on credit quality to chase growth. Our strategy is to remain focused on delivering a level of service that our larger or smaller competitors cannot or choose not to provide. Despite the ongoing competitive environment, we remain very excited about our continued loan and core deposit growth trends.”

Income Statement Highlights
Net interest income was $7.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2014. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.23% in the first quarter of 2015, compared to 3.45% in the second quarter of 2014, while the net interest spread was 3.00% compared to 3.26% in the prior year’s second quarter.
Interest income on loans was $8.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to $8.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, reflecting contributions from $63.4 million in loan growth, partially offset by newer loans being booked at lower average yields due to the ongoing low interest rate environment and competitive market conditions.
Interest income on securities was $962,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to $737,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The increase in interest income on securities was the result of growth in the portfolio, along with improvement in the overall yield of the government sponsored enterprises and state and political subdivision portfolios.
Interest expense on deposits was $987,000 in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2014, which primarily reflected a decline in time deposits, which were replaced by growth in noninterest bearing deposits, along with an increase in lower cost NOW, money market and savings accounts.
Noninterest income was $521,000 in the second quarter of 2015, which included year-over-year growth in service charges on deposit accounts resulting from growth in noninterest bearing deposits that provide greater fee income and mortgage fee income of $153,000, which rose 84.34% compared with a year earlier. Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2014 was $845,000, which included other income of $483,000 related to proceeds received from a bank owned life insurance policy, in addition to $28,000 in gains on the sale of loans and $38,000 in gains on the sale of securities.
Noninterest expense was $5.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to $5.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Salaries and benefits were consistent year-over-year and lower occupancy expense reflected the purchase of the Channahon, Illinois branch in mid-2014. The second quarter of 2015 included a net loss on foreclosed assets of $20,000 as compared to $369,000 in the same period in 2014. These losses relate to the timing of appraisals and sales of foreclosed properties.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets were $994.5 million at June 30, 2015, up 7.85% from $922.1 million at June 30, 2014, and up 7.62% from $924.1 million at December 31, 2014.
Net loans (after allowance for loan losses) were $715.4 million at June 30, 2015, a 10.06% increase from $650.0 million at June 30, 2014, and a 5.9% increase from $675.3 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting balanced growth in all lending categories, other than consumer and other loans, and a lower allowance for loan losses. Commercial real estate loans increased $17.6 million to $363.6 million year-over-year. Commercial loans rose $20.8 million year-over-year, an increase of 12.46% to $187.8 million. Residential 1-4 family loans, which grew steadily throughout 2014, were $109.8 million at June 30, 2015, up 15.22% from $95.3 million at June 30, 2014, and up 8.93% from $100.8 million at December 31, 2014.
Year-over-year asset comparisons include growth of investment securities to $184.3 million at June 30, 2015, compared with $168.1 million at June 30, 2014 and $170.1 million at December 31, 2014. Strong gains in low-cost deposits facilitated some of the growth. Average duration of the Company’s investment portfolio remains modest at approximately 4.03 years.
Total deposits, which increased to $834.4 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared with $769.4 million at December 31, 2014, and $763.6 million at June 30, 2014, reflected the Company’s focus on growing core deposits from commercial business depositors. Approximately $29.9 million of the year-over-year growth, and $16.2 million in the second quarter came from commercial noninterest bearing demand deposits. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 57.9% year-over-year and 17.85% in the second quarter of 2015, savings deposits increased 23.45% year-over-year and were relatively flat in the second quarter, NOW accounts were relatively flat in both periods and money market accounts increased to $231.2 million at June 30, 2015 from $187.3 million at June 30, 2014 and $196.2 million at December 31, 2014. This growth has reduced First Community’s overall reliance on time deposits for funding its asset growth. Ongoing rebalancing of the Company’s deposit portfolio resulted in a decline in time deposits to $299.7 million at June 30, 2015 from $310.9 million at December 31, 2014 and $351.4 million at June 30, 2014.
Asset Quality and Performance Metrics
Total nonperforming assets declined by 31.45% to $8.5 million at June 30, 2015 from $12.4 million at June 30, 2014, and 10.53% from $9.5 million at December 31, 2014. The improvement reflected a decline in total nonperforming loans to $4.2 million from $8.5 million a year earlier, and from $7.0 million at December 31, 2014. Foreclosed assets were $4.2 million at June 30, 2015, which is up from $3.9 million at June 30, 2014 and an increase from $2.5 million at December 31, 2014 due to the addition of two new properties in the second quarter of 2015. Net charge-offs, which declined sharply beginning in the third quarter of 2014, were $609,000 in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2014.
The Company had a negative provision for loan losses of $749,000 in the second quarter of 2015 compared with a provision of $667,000 in the second quarter of 2014, reflecting significantly improved asset quality year over year. Even with this negative provision the Company’s allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans remains strong at 292.92% at June 30, 2015, compared to 198.73% at December 31, 2014 and 169.49% at June 30, 2014.
The Bank was well capitalized according to applicable regulatory standards at June 30, 2015, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.24%, Tier 1 risk based ratio of 11.20%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.39%, and a common equity Tier 1 ratio of 11.20%. First Community’s ratio of tangible common shareholder’s equity to tangible assets was 9.67% at June 30, 2015, compared to 9.96% at December 31, 2014 and 9.55% at June 30, 2014.
