Second Quarter Financial Results           

Results of Operations

Net income before tax was $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 30%, or $0.9 million, from the second quarter of 2014.  Net income after-tax was $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2015, compared to $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2015 and $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2014. Fully diluted net income per share was $0.10 per share in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $0.10 per share and $0.13 per share in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2014, respectively. PCNR Earnings, which exclude credit related costs (provision, other real estate owned ("OREO") and loan collection expenses), nonrecurring income and expenses, and taxes, were $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2015, $1.4 million, or 56%, better than the $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2014, and $0.5 million, or 15%, better than the $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2015.  

Second quarter financial results, as compared to the same quarter last year, reflected continued improvements in the asset quality of the loan portfolio and a $0.8 million recovery of loan loss provision. Net interest income grew $1.1 million, or 7%, from the second quarter of 2014 on a $172.0 million increase in average loans. Noninterest income excluding securities gains and losses was unchanged from the second quarter of 2014 at $4.2 million. Noninterest expense fell by $1.4 million, or 7%, as compared to the same quarter last year, primarily related to reductions in branch operating costs, OREO and collection costs and nonrecurring expenses related to the sale of the US Treasury's position in the Company's common stock, offset by increases in commercial and mortgage personnel costs and mortgage commissions.

As compared to the first quarter, net interest income grew $0.1 million on an increase in average loans and securities of $47.4 million, offset by an 11 basis point decline in loan yields in the second quarter. Noninterest income grew $0.1 million from last quarter on increases in service charges and cardholder and merchant services revenue, offset by a decline in mortgage loan income. Noninterest expense fell by $0.2 million, or 1%, in the quarter, primarily related to the impact on personnel and occupancy costs of branch closures completed in the first quarter of 2015, offset by increased OREO costs and $0.1 million in costs related to the branch acquisition from CertusBank in the second quarter.

Loan and Deposits

Strong loan growth continued this quarter across all business lines, reflecting sustained loan demand in our metro markets, portfolio growth across all our businesses, and the impact of personnel additions and market expansion. Loans held for investment grew 4% in the second quarter, an annualized growth rate of 14% and our fifth consecutive quarter of double digit annualized growth. Loans held for investment grew by $49.9 million in the second quarter to $1.45 billion, compared to $1.40 billion at the end of the first quarter. Excluding our purchased residential mortgage loan pools, our total organic loan growth was even stronger at $61.7 million during the quarter, an annualized growth rate of 21%. Pass rated loans grew $61.9 million in the second quarter, an annualized growth rate of 19%, reflecting continued improvement in the asset quality of the loan portfolio. Loans held for investment to total deposits increased to 78% in the second quarter, improved from 72% a year ago.

Our loan growth performance was a result of the success of and continued investments in expanded commercial, real estate and residential mortgage lending capacity in our metro markets of Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham and Greensboro, the top three MSAs in terms of population in North Carolina. At the end of the second quarter, the loan portfolio in these metro markets made up 55% of our organic loan portfolio (which excludes our purchased residential mortgage loans), up from 49% a year ago. Key drivers of growth were the Charlotte and Raleigh metro areas with year over year loan portfolio increases of 47% and 46%, respectively. In the second quarter, we opened a commercial Loan Production Office ("LPO") in Charleston, SC, one of the largest and fastest growing markets in the state. We also added four new residential mortgage loan officers in Charlotte and Raleigh in the second quarter. We expect these new markets and new staff will sustain our accelerated pace of loan growth and enhance our mortgage loan income in the future.

Total deposits increased $48.2 million, or an 11% annualized rate, in the second quarter, including the $58.8 million impact of the branch purchase in June from CertusBank. Total deposits were $1.86 billion at the end of the quarter. Low cost core deposits, which exclude time deposits, grew $23.6 million during the second quarter, an annualized growth rate of 8%. Noninterest-bearing deposits grew $14.6 million, or 4%, in the second quarter, an annualized growth rate of 17%, as a result of new commercial relationships and the growth of our treasury products. 

Net Interest Income

Second quarter net interest income was $16.8 million, an increase of 7% as compared to $15.7 million in the second quarter of last year, as a result of a $145.1 million increase in average loans and securities and an increase in interest recoveries of $0.4 million. Net interest income was $0.1 million higher as compared to the first quarter of 2015, on an increase in average loans and securities of $47.4 million, offset by the impact of an 11 basis point decline in net loan yield in the second quarter driven by reduced new loan origination yields. Accretion, net of contractual interest collected, on purchased impaired loans was $0.6 million in the second quarter, compared to $0.7 million and $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2014, respectively. 

Our net interest margin was 3.43% for the second quarter of 2015, up 3 basis points from the second quarter of 2014, and down 11 basis points from the first quarter. The increase in net interest margin as compared to the second quarter of 2014 was the result of an improved asset mix as we grew average loans by $172.0 million (14%) and reduced lower yielding cash and securities balances by $65.9 million, offset by a 10 basis point decline in net loan yield year over year. The decrease in the net interest margin in the second quarter over the first quarter was split between an 11 basis point decline in net loan yield and a 19 basis point decline in securities yield as a result of accelerated prepayments in the mortgage backed securities portfolio, offset by an improved asset mix as we grew average loans by $32.0 million. The deposit portfolio continues to perform to our expectations, including the addition of the $58.8 million deposit portfolio acquired from CertusBank at the end of June. The cost of interest-bearing deposits was 48 basis points during both the second quarters of 2014 and 2015, and during the first quarter of 2015. The cost of all deposit funding was unchanged over the previous quarter at 39 basis points, but down 1 basis point from the second quarter of 2014.

Asset Quality and Provision for Loan Losses

Nonperforming assets, including nonaccruing loans, loans over 90 days delinquent and still accruing not accounted for under purchased impaired loan accounting, and OREO and repossessed loan collateral continued to decline during the second quarter. These assets fell to $39.5 million, or 1.7% of total assets, at the end of the second quarter, compared to $53.6 million, or 2.7% of total assets, at the end of the second quarter a year ago. OREO and repossessed loan collateral fell during the second quarter to $20.0 million, and have been reduced by $1.9 million, or 9%, compared to the same quarter last year. For the second quarter, we had OREO write-downs, net of gains on the sale of OREO, of $399 thousand.

The allowance for loan losses was $18.0 million, or 1.24% of loans held for investment, at the end of the second quarter, compared to $19.0 million, or 1.36% at the end of the previous quarter. Recovery of provision for loan losses was $0.8 million in the second quarter compared to a recovery of provision of $1.1 million and $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2014, respectively.

The Company had net charge-offs in the second quarter of $0.2 million. Second quarter annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.07%, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.06% last quarter and 0.08% for all of 2014. 

Noninterest Income

For the second quarter, PCNR noninterest income was $4.2 million, unchanged from the comparable quarter in 2014, and an increase of $0.1 million from the first quarter. Total noninterest income was $4.2 million in the second quarter, a decrease of $0.7 million as compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of last year as a result of $0.7 million of securities gains in that quarter, and an increase of $0.1 million as compared to $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2015.

Mortgage loan income increased by 20% in the second quarter from the prior year, to $0.3 million, driven by a 67% increase in mortgage loan origination and a 72% increase in loans originated for sale to investors, offset by a reduction in the average gain on sale. Production from our retail non-branch channel was $25.5 million in the quarter, an 82% increase from the previous quarter. During the quarter, we originated $70.6 million of mortgage loans, including $28.7 million of loans for sale to investors, an increase of 72% from the second quarter of last year and an increase of 21% from the first quarter.

Second quarter total service charges were $0.1 million lower than the prior year on reduced overdraft and NSF activity in the deposit portfolio, partially related to the impact of branches closed in the first quarter of 2015. Cardholder and merchant services income was flat to the prior year.

Trust and investment services income in the second quarter grew 1% from the comparable quarter last year, principally as a result of increased assets under management.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense fell by $1.4 million, or 7%, as compared to the same quarter last year, primarily related to reductions in branch operating costs, OREO and collection costs and nonrecurring expenses related to the sale of the US Treasury's position in the Company's common stock, offset by increases in personnel costs from origination personnel in the commercial and commissions in the mortgage areas. As compared to the first quarter, noninterest expense fell $0.2 million, or 1%, in the quarter, primarily related to the impact on personnel and occupancy costs of branch closures completed in the first quarter of 2015, offset by increased OREO costs and $0.1 million in costs related to the branch acquisition from CertusBank in the second quarter.

PCNR noninterest expense, which excludes credit related expenses (OREO and loan collection expenses) and nonrecurring expenses, was $17.0 million, a decrease of $0.3 million from the second quarter of 2014 primarily as a result of the branch closures just noted. PCNR noninterest expense fell by $0.3 million in the second quarter from the prior quarter, also primarily as a result of the branch closures, offset by investments in origination personnel. PCNR noninterest expense to average assets fell to 3.03% in the second quarter from 3.15% and 3.47% in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2014, respectively. Average full time equivalent employees were 553, 3% lower than in the first quarter and 1% lower than a year ago.
