State Bancorp, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Earnings and Declares Cash Dividend of $0.15


JERICHO, N.Y., Oct. 24, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- State Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:STBC), parent company of State Bank of Long Island, today reported net income for the third quarter of 2007 of $3.1 million versus $2.4 million a year ago, representing an increase of 29.3%. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.22 in the third quarter of 2007 and $0.20 in the comparable 2006 period. The increase in third quarter net income in 2007 is primarily attributable to a $1.6 million reduction in operating expenses. Third quarter net income was impacted negatively by a reduction in net interest income resulting from a lower net interest margin in 2007 versus 2006. However, net interest margin improved by seven basis points to 3.89% in the third quarter of 2007 when compared to the second quarter of 2007. Year-to-date 2007 net income was $5.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to $8.1 million or $0.71 per diluted share in 2006.

Commenting on the third quarter results, President and CEO, Thomas M. O'Brien stated, "As noted in previous quarters, 2007 remains a transitional time for the Company as we reorganize our management team and implement strategies for future growth and development. This is evidenced by our year to date increase in operating expenses related to our previously disclosed Voluntary Exit Window Program. However, our third quarter performance reflects the initial results of initiatives recently implemented in order to achieve greater efficiency and profitability for the Company. Most unfortunately, the purported shareholder derivative action that commenced in July required the Company to incur an initial legal expense of $500 thousand in the third quarter. This additional expense somewhat masks a consistent improvement in our core operating efficiency. We will continue to strengthen our balance sheet and capital position by focusing on our core competencies of delivering high quality banking products and personalized service to small and middle-market businesses, professional service firms, and commercial real estate owners, developers and operators.

"The banking industry remains challenged by economic pressures from the yield curve and most recently, the current subprime mortgage crisis. To date, the impact of this crisis on the Company's loan portfolio has been minimal since, by policy, we do not engage in subprime lending. The softening of the local real estate market and the associated downward trend in the local economy have thus far impacted the Company's loan portfolio to a limited extent. The Company's securities portfolio contains no subprime structured debt, exotic structures or other hard to value instruments. At September 30, 2007, the market value of the securities portfolio represented 99.8% of book value thereby exhibiting virtually no depreciation. Additionally the Company's liquidity remains strong as a result of our stable deposit base, ample borrowing capacity secured by liquid assets and other funding sources.

"We remain fully focused on our strategy of delivering high quality service to our customers, building long term sustainable earnings, and creating value for our shareholders. Management continues to conduct an orderly review of each business unit and administrative support department to make certain that we are making the best use of our expense budget."

Earnings Summary for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2007

Net interest income decreased by $336 thousand (down 2.2%) to $14.9 million in the third quarter of 2007 versus 2006 as the result of a 16 basis point decline in the Company's net interest margin to 3.89% in 2007. Partially offsetting the narrower margin was a 2% increase in average interest-earning assets, primarily loans and leases. Growth in commercial loans, commercial mortgages, and leases resulted in a 5% increase in average loans and leases outstanding to $1.0 billion during the third quarter of 2007 versus 2006. The average investment portfolio declined by 2% to $517 million in the third quarter, principally due to a decline in government agency securities. Funding the overall growth in average interest-earning assets were increases in other temporary borrowings and stockholders equity of $142 million and $47 million, respectively. Other temporary borrowings consisted primarily of Federal Home Loan Bank overnight and short-term advances which are fully secured by marketable collateral. Average total deposits decreased by $108 million (8%) during the third quarter of 2007 primarily due to reductions in savings deposits and retail CDs. Average core deposit balances (demand, savings, money fund and super NOW deposits) declined by $50 million during the third quarter of 2007 to $885 million at an average cost of 1.91%.

The Company's fully taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest margin narrowed to 3.89% in the third quarter of 2007 from 4.05% a year ago. This decline resulted from a 34 basis point increase in the Company's cost of funds, principally due to competitive liability pricing pressure combined with a shift in the funding mix from core deposits to borrowings and CDs. This higher cost of funds was offset somewhat by an 18 basis point increase in the Company's earning asset yield to a weighted average rate of 7.13% in the third quarter of 2007. The higher asset yield resulted primarily from the impact of higher rates in 2007 and growth in loans and leases from the comparable 2006 period. However, net interest margin compared to the second quarter of 2007 improved by seven basis points principally as the result of higher asset yields in the Company's investment portfolio.

The provision for loan and lease losses decreased by $136 thousand or 17.2% during the third quarter of 2007 versus 2006.

Non-interest income decreased by $105 thousand or 7.4% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the 2006 period. The reduction was due to a 20.4% decrease in service charges on deposits, primarily attributable to reductions in deposit-related fees and overdraft charges resulting from a lower level of overdrafts in the third quarter of 2007.

Total operating expenses decreased by $1.6 million or 13.2% to $10.8 million during the third quarter of 2007 when compared to last year. The primary reasons for this decrease were reductions in legal expenses and salaries and other employee benefits of $850 thousand and $663 thousand, respectively. The reduction in legal expenses is primarily related to the settlement of the Island Mortgage Network ("IMN") litigation in January 2007. The financial impact of the settlement was recorded by the Company during the fourth quarter of 2006. No IMN-related legal expenses were recorded in the third quarter of 2007. Expenses associated with an appeal of the January 2006 IMN trial verdict are included in the results for 2006 and account for the decrease in legal expenses in the third quarter year-to-year comparison. As reported in the Company's Form 8-K filing with the SEC on July 24, 2007, the Company is a nominal defendant in a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit brought against certain directors and current and former executive officers. Third quarter 2007 legal expenses include $500 thousand in outside counsel fees relating to this matter. Salaries and other employee benefits decreased by 9.5% in the 2007 third quarter compared to the comparable 2006 period, reflecting in part expense reductions attributable to the previously announced Voluntary Exit Window program, which was completed in the second quarter of 2007. The reduction in salaries and other employee benefits was also impacted by a reserve reduction of $500 thousand in accrued 2007 executive incentive compensation expense, reflecting an anticipated reduction in awards for the 2007 calendar year. Occupancy expenses increased by 12.8% due to higher rental, utility, maintenance and building depreciation costs. Marketing and advertising expenses decreased by 15.8% primarily resulting from a reduction in TV/radio advertising. Credit and collection costs increased by 61.6% due to higher costs associated with loan collection efforts and increased credit report expenses. Other operating expenses increased by 1.9% to $1.5 million during the third quarter of 2007, due in part to the recording in 2006 of a real estate tax refund resulting from a successful certiorari proceeding.

Income tax expense increased by $646 thousand in the third quarter of 2007 versus the comparable period a year ago. The Company's effective tax rate was 35.1% in the third quarter of 2007 and 30.0% in 2006.

Earnings Summary for the Nine months Ended September 30, 2007

Net income for the first nine months of 2007 was $5.8 million versus $8.1 million in 2006. A 4.1% reduction in net interest income, lower non-interest income and increases in the provision for loan and lease losses and total operating expenses were the primary factors causing the decline in 2007 year-to-date net income.

The $1.9 million reduction in net interest income was due to a 29 basis point decline in the Company's net interest margin to 3.80% in 2007. The provision for loan and lease losses increased by $659 thousand in 2007 versus the comparable 2006 period as the result of higher net charge-offs and an increase in non-performing assets in 2007. Non-interest income decreased by 5.2% to $4.1 million, principally due to reductions in deposit service charges and other operating income. Total operating expenses grew by $382 thousand in the first nine months of 2007 compared with 2006. The growth was mainly due to increases in salaries and other employee benefits expenses of $3.7 million, other operating expenses of $439 thousand and occupancy expenses of $340 thousand. The increase in salaries and other employee benefits expenses is primarily attributable to the $3.1 million second quarter charge for the 2007 Voluntary Exit Window program. Substantially offsetting these increases was a reduction of $4.2 million in legal expenses, principally in connection with the IMN litigation. The Company's effective tax rate was 33.0% and 31.1% in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

As of September 30, 2007, the Company's allowance for loan and lease losses amounted to $15 million or 1.45% of period-end loans and leases outstanding. The allowance as a percentage of loans and leases outstanding was 1.66% at June 30, 2007, 1.67% at December 31, 2006 and 1.78% at September 30, 2006. The reduction in the allowance as a percentage of the total loan and lease portfolio at September 30, 2007 compared with prior periods is primarily due to charge-offs of classified watch list loans and loans that were transferred to loans held for sale in the third quarter of 2007. The allowance as a percentage of non-accrual loans and leases amounted to 191% at September 30, 2007 versus 192% at June 30, 2007 and 754% at December 31, 2006 and 549% at September 30, 2006. The decline in the reserve coverage ratio at September 30, 2007 from September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006 is due to an increase in non-performing assets resulting primarily from the addition of one commercial loan relationship to non-accrual status in the first quarter of 2007.

Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006 were $2.4 million and $275 thousand, respectively. As a percentage of average total loans and leases outstanding, these charge-off totals represented 0.96% and 0.11% in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2007 include write-downs of classified watch list loans and loans that were transferred to loans held for sale. Based upon historical trends, inherent risk in the loan and lease portfolio, and the downward pressures the local economy is currently experiencing, the Company expects to record loan and lease charge-offs in future periods, which management believes has been adequately reserved for in the allowance for loan and lease losses reported at September 30, 2007.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets are defined by the Company as non-accrual loans and leases and other real estate owned ("OREO"). Non-accrual loans and leases totaled $8 million (0.8% of loans and leases outstanding) at September 30, 2007, versus $2 million (0.2% of loans and leases outstanding) at December 31, 2006 and $3 million (0.3% of loans and leases outstanding) at September 30, 2006. The increase in non-accrual loans and leases at September 30, 2007 versus year-end 2006 and September 30, 2006 resulted from the addition of one commercial loan relationship to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2007. While this long-term relationship had been on the Bank's internal watch list for deteriorating credit conditions, the borrower abruptly ceased operations at the end of the first quarter of 2007 and subsequently filed for bankruptcy. The Bank is pursuing its secured claims through the bankruptcy court and expects to recover all remaining balance sheet receivables. The Company held no OREO at September 30, 2007, December 31, 2006 or September 30, 2006.

Capital

Total stockholders' equity was $113 million at September 30, 2007 and $65 million at September 30, 2006. The increase in stockholders' equity is primarily due to the Company's sale of 2.25 million shares of its common stock in December 2006, which increased capital by $36 million. The Company currently has outstanding $20 million in trust preferred securities that qualify as Tier I capital. During the first nine months of 2007, the weighted average rate on the Company's trust preferred securities was 8.53% versus 8.13% a year ago. The Company also has $10 million of 8.25% subordinated notes outstanding which qualify as Tier II capital.

The Company's capital ratios exceed all regulatory requirements at September 30, 2007. State Bank of Long Island's Tier I leverage, Tier I risk-weighted and total risk-weighted capital ratios were 7.88%, 10.83% and 12.06%, respectively, at September 30, 2007. Each of these ratios is in excess of the regulatory guidelines for a "well capitalized" institution, the highest regulatory capital category.

During the first three quarters of 2007, the Company declared two cash dividends on its common stock of $0.15 per share. The Company also announced in June a change to its cash dividend schedule to a quarterly declaration during the first month of each calendar quarter. Since the Company recorded a net loss in 2005 following the issuance of the IMN jury verdict, the quarterly cash dividend had been on an irregular schedule due to advance approvals required from the New York State Banking Department, the Bank's primary regulator, for the Bank to pay cash dividends to the Company. Based on the new dividend schedule, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per share at its October 23, 2007 meeting. The cash dividend will be paid on December 10, 2007 to stockholders of record on November 16, 2007.

The Company did not repurchase any of its common stock during the first nine months of 2007. Under the Board of Directors' existing authorization, an additional 512,348 shares may be repurchased from time to time as conditions warrant. The Company does not presently anticipate repurchasing any of its shares in the immediate future.
