Glen Burnie Bancorp Announces Second Quarter 2018 Results


GLEN BURNIE, Md., July 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glen Burnie Bancorp (“Bancorp”) (NASDAQ:GLBZ), the bank holding company for The Bank of Glen Burnie (“Bank”), announced today net income of $0.48 million, or $0.17 per basic and diluted common share for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to net income of $0.34 million, or $0.12 per basic and diluted common share for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.

Bancorp reported net income of $0.73 million, or $0.26 per basic and diluted common share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, compared to $0.65 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted common share for the same period in 2017.  Net loans grew by $18.7 million, or 7.0% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period of 2017.  At June 30, 2018, Bancorp had total assets of $401.5 million.  Bancorp, the oldest independent commercial bank in Anne Arundel County, will pay its 104th consecutive quarterly dividend on August 3, 2018.

"Our transformative journey which began in 2017, continued into the second quarter of 2018 as we executed our strategic plan and delivered increased shareholder value.  We achieved strong financial and operating performance across the Company, positioning us well for sustained growth and creating increased franchise value throughout this year and beyond,” said John D. Long, President and CEO.  “Our experienced leadership team, upgraded leverageable infrastructure, diversified business model, positive interest rate risk management, strong indirect lending capabilities, strong asset quality, and attractive deposit mix bode well for the Company’s future.  Net interest income continued to rise during the second quarter, driving a consistent core earnings expansion.  Net interest income grew by $160,000 or 5.5%, this quarter compared to the same quarter last year, as the balance of our net loan portfolio grew at an annualized rate of 7.0%, when compared to the same period last year.  The overall credit environment remained favorable, although the charge off of a single impaired loan led to an increase in our historical loss rate and loan loss provision for the residential real estate loan segment.  Headquartered in the dynamic Northern Anne Arundel County market, we believe the Bank is well-positioned and we remain deeply committed to serving the financial needs of the community through the development of new loan and deposit products.”

Highlights for the First Six Months of 2018

Bancorp continued to grow organically in the second quarter of 2018 driven primarily by favorable net loan growth and supported by an improving 0.53% cost of funds, as compared to 0.55% for the same period in 2017.  Bancorp has strong liquidity and capital positions that provide ample capacity for future growth, along with the Bank’s total regulatory capital to risk weighted assets of 12.78% at June 30, 2018, as compared to 14.65% for the same period of 2017.

Return on average assets for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was 0.49%, as compared to 0.35% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.  Return on average equity for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was 5.80%, as compared to 4.01% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017. 

The book value per share of Bancorp’s common stock was $11.95 at June 30, 2018, as compared to $12.45 per share at June 30, 2017.

At June 30, 2018, the Bank remained above all “well-capitalized” regulatory requirement levels.  The Bank’s tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was approximately 11.94% at June 30, 2018, as compared to 13.60% at June 30, 2017.  Liquidity remained strong due to managed cash and cash equivalents, borrowing lines with the FHLB of Atlanta, the Federal Reserve and correspondent banks, and the size and composition of the bond portfolio.

Balance Sheet Review

Total assets were $401.5 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $5.3 million or 1.34%, from $396.2 million at June 30, 2017.  Investment securities were $87.3 million at June 30, 2018, a decrease of $3.3 million or 3.66%, from $90.6 million at June 30, 2017.  Loans, net of deferred fees and costs, were $289.4 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $18.4 million or 6.78%, from $271.0 million at June 30, 2017.  Other assets increased $1.9 million and bank owned life insurance decreased $1.6 million from June 30, 2017 to June 30, 2018 primarily due to the redemption of BOLI policies.

Total deposits were $341.8 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $6.3 million or 1.88%, from $335.5 million at June 30, 2017.  Noninterest-bearing deposits were $108.4 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $2.8 million or 2.67%, from $105.6 million at June 30, 2017.  Interest-bearing deposits were $233.4 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $3.5 million or 1.52%, from $229.9 million at June 30, 2017.  Total borrowings were $25.0 million at June 30, 2018, unchanged from $25.0 million at June 30, 2017.

Stockholders’ equity was $33.5 million at June 30, 2018, a decrease of $1.0 million from $34.5 million at June 30, 2017.  The decrease was driven primarily by $1.1 million increase in net unrealized losses associated with the available for sale bond portfolio and interest rate swap contracts.

Nonperforming assets, which consist of nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings, accruing loans past due 90 days or more, and other real estate owned, represented 1.05% of total assets at June 30, 2018, as compared to 0.99% for the same period of 2017.

Review of Financial Results

For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $0.48 million, as compared to net income of $0.34 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.

Net interest income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 totaled $3.1 million, as compared to $2.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.  Average earning loan balances increased to $281.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $269.5 million for the same period of 2017.

Net interest margin for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was 3.21%, as compared to 3.09% for the same period of 2017.  Higher yields on interest-earning assets supported by lower funding costs were the primary drivers of year-over-year results, as the yield on interest-earning assets increased 0.11% from 3.62% to 3.73% and the cost of funds decreased 0.01% from 0.55% to 0.54% for the three-month periods ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The provision for loan losses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $5,000, as compared to $30,000 for the same period of 2017.  The decrease for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was primarily the result of the positive resolution of a single problem loan, offset by the negative effect on the loss history rate used to establish the required reserves for residential real estate loans of a single loan charge off.  As a result, the allowance for loan losses was $2.3 million at June 30, 2018, representing 0.79% of total loans, as compared to $2.6 million, or 0.96% of total loans at June 30, 2017.

Noninterest income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $0.39 million, as compared to $0.29 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.  The results for the second quarter of 2018 include a $100,540 gain on redemption of BOLI policy.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, noninterest expense was $3.01 million, as compared to $2.81 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017.  The primary contributors to the $0.20 million increase, when compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 were increases in salary and employee benefits, legal, accounting and other professional fees and loan collection costs.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $0.73 million, as compared to net income of $0.65 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.

Net interest income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 totaled $6.0 million, as compared to $5.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.  Average earning loan balances increased to $278 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $269 million for the same period of 2017.

Net interest margin for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was 3.22%, as compared to 3.08% for the same period of 2017.  Higher yields on interest-earning assets supported by lower funding costs were the primary drivers of year-over-year results, as the yield on interest-earning assets increased 0.11% from 3.61% to 3.72% and the cost of funds decreased 0.02% from 0.55% to 0.53% for the six-month periods ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The provision for loan losses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $0.36 million, as compared to $0.17 million for the same period of 2017.  The increase for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was primarily the negative effect of a single charge off on the loss history rate used to establish the required reserves for residential real estate loans.  As a result, the allowance for loan losses was $2.3 million at June 30, 2018, representing 0.79% of total loans, as compared to $2.6 million, or 0.96% of total loans for the same period of 2017.

Noninterest income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $0.87 million, as compared to $0.57 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.  The results for the first half of 2018 include gains on redemptions of BOLI policies of $306,877.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, noninterest expense was $5.85 million, as compared to $5.38 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017.  The primary contributors to the $0.47 million increase, when compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 were increases in salary and employee benefits, accounting and other professional fees and loan collection costs, partially offset by decreases in data processing and item processing services and advertising and marketing related expenses.
