DENVER, CO--(Marketwire - Jul 21, 2011) - Guaranty Bancorp (
-- Quarterly net income increased to $1.4 million (excluding non-cash preferred stock dividends) -- All asset quality indicators improved, including a $25.6 million decrease in nonperforming assets -- Non-interest bearing deposits continue to grow and represent 31% of total deposits at June 30, 2011 -- Pass-rated loans increased by $7.7 million in the second quarter -- Strong regulatory risk-based capital ratios further improved during the quarter
Guaranty Bancorp (
Paul W. Taylor, Guaranty Bancorp's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "I am proud to announce our best quarter in the past three very difficult years. In addition to quarterly net income of $1.4 million, we improved all of our asset quality measures, further increased our already strong risk-based capital ratios, continued to grow the number of new deposit customers and generated new loan business in the communities we serve. We have very high expectations for the future performance of this organization. Although we are not yet where we want to be with respect to performance, thanks to the hard work by many dedicated employees, we continue to make significant progress toward our goals."
Mr. Taylor continued, "Although our total loans declined during the quarter due to planned reductions in problem loans, this has been our highest quarter of new loan bookings in several years. Specifically, we booked $71.4 million of new loans with over 40 different businesses during the quarter as well as extending $22.8 million of credit on existing loans. Included in these totals are $9.1 million of SBA loans for which we are a preferred lender. Further, our pipeline of potential new loans continues to grow. Finally, as announced yesterday, I am excited to have Michael Hobbs join us on July 27, 2011, as President of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Guaranty Bank and Trust Company. Mr. Hobbs will be a great addition to our team."
For the six-months ended June 30, 2011, net income was $1.9 million before preferred stock dividends compared to a net loss of $6.2 million before preferred stock dividends for the same period in 2010. After giving effect to the preferred stock dividends, the loss per basic and diluted common share for the first six months of 2011 was approximately $0.02 per share compared to a loss per basic and diluted common share of $0.17 for the same period in 2010. The improvement in net income is due mostly to a $9.4 million reduction in provision for loan losses and a $6.4 million reduction in noninterest expense primarily related to other real estate owned. These significant income improvements were partially offset by a $3.3 million decrease in net interest income for the year-to-date period in 2011 as compared to 2010 due mostly to lower earning assets in 2011 as well as a $0.5 million decrease in noninterest income due primarily to a net decrease in gains on the sale of assets.

Second quarter 2011 net interest income of $14.7 million remained level
compared to the first quarter 2011, and decreased by $1.4 million from the
second quarter 2010. The Company's net interest margin of 3.56% for the
second quarter 2011 reflected an increase of 14 basis points from the first
quarter 2011 and an increase of 9 basis points from the second quarter
2010.
Although net interest income remained relatively flat for the second quarter 2011 compared to the first quarter 2011, interest income decreased $0.7 million, offset by a $0.7 million decline in interest expense. The $0.7 million decrease in interest income in the second quarter 2011 as compared to the first quarter 2011 is primarily attributable to a $0.5 million decrease in interest income on loans as a result of a $72.4 million reduction in average balances quarter over quarter. The remaining decrease in interest income is a result of a reduction in our average security holdings during the quarter. Offsetting the decrease in interest income was a $0.7 million decline in interest expense. Specifically, time deposit interest expense decreased by $0.7 million due to a $104.3 million decrease in average time deposits, mostly higher cost, brokered time deposits. The Company anticipates further reductions in time deposit interest through the remainder of 2011 as a result of scheduled maturities of brokered deposits of $69.3 million with a weighted average cost of 3.43%, including $40.1 million in the early third quarter 2011.
Net interest income decreased by $1.4 million in the second quarter 2011, as compared to the same quarter in 2010, due primarily to an unfavorable $2.0 million volume variance, partially offset by a $0.6 million favorable rate variance. The unfavorable volume variance for the second quarter 2011 as compared to the same quarter in 2010 is due mostly to the $302.0 million decrease in average loan balances, offset by a $98.6 million increase in the average balance of all other earning assets, particularly taxable investments, and a $305.0 million decrease in average time deposits. The favorable rate variance for the second quarter 2011 as compared to the same quarter in 2010 is primarily due to a 52 basis point decrease in the cost of deposits partially offset by a 24 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets. Overall net interest margin improved by nine basis points to 3.56% in the second quarter 2011 as compared to 3.47% in the same quarter in 2010.
Net interest income for the first six months of 2011 decreased by $3.3 million from $32.8 million for the six months ended June 2010 to $29.5 million for the six months ended June 2011. The $3.3 million decline consists of a $3.5 million unfavorable volume variance, partially offset by a $0.2 million favorable rate variance. The unfavorable volume variance for the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is due mostly to a $302.7 million decline in average loan balances partially offset by a $107.9 million increase in the average balance of all other earning assets and a $283.2 million decrease in time deposits. The $0.2 million favorable rate variance for the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is due to the one basis point increase in net interest margin.
Noninterest Income The following table presents noninterest income as of the dates indicated: Quarter Ended Six Months Ended ------------------------------- ---------------------- June 30, March 31, June 30, June 30, June 30, 2011 2011 2010 2011 2010 --------- ---------- --------- ---------- ----------- (In thousands) Noninterest income: Customer service and other fees $ 2,386 $ 2,314 $ 2,254 $ 4,700 $ 4,468 Gain (loss) on sale of securities (312) 714 1 402 15 Gain on sale of loans - - 1,196 - 1,196 Other 262 252 274 514 468 --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total noninterest income $ 2,336 $ 3,280 $ 3,725 $ 5,616 $ 6,147 ========= ========== ========== ========== ==========
The $0.9 million decrease in noninterest income in the second quarter 2011
as compared to the first quarter 2011 reflects a $1.0 million swing in
gain/loss on sale of securities from the $0.7 million gain recognized in
the first quarter to the $0.3 million loss recognized in the second
quarter. The sale of securities was done primarily to reduce duration
within the investment portfolio. During the quarter, the average life of
our bond portfolio was reduced by approximately seven months. Excluding
the $1.2 million gain on sale of loans recognized in the second quarter
2010, noninterest income remained relatively flat in the second quarter
2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.
Excluding the $1.2 million gain on sale of loans recognized in June 2010, noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $0.7 million compared to the same period in 2010. This increase is the result of a $0.4 million increase in net gains on sale of securities. Additionally, customer service and other fees increased by $0.2 million year over year, primarily as a result of higher overdraft and interchange fee income.
Noninterest Expense The following table presents noninterest expense as of the dates indicated: Quarter Ended Six Months Ended -------------------------------- --------------------- June 30, March 31, June 30, June 30, June 30, 2011 2011 2010 2011 2010 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- (In thousands) Noninterest expense: Salaries and employee benefits $ 6,320 $ 6,615 $ 6,472 $ 12,935 $ 13,035 Occupancy expense 1,792 1,883 1,836 3,675 3,726 Furniture and equipment 913 894 967 1,807 1,943 Amortization of intangible assets 1,028 1,028 1,300 2,056 2,600 Other real estate owned 466 763 3,115 1,229 5,864 Insurance and assessment 966 1,225 1,825 2,191 3,637 Professional fees 914 908 739 1,822 1,616 Other general and administrative 2,275 2,160 2,165 4,435 4,124 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total noninterest expense $ 14,674 $ 15,476 $ 18,419 $ 30,150 $ 36,545 ========== ========== ========== ========== ==========
The $0.8 million decrease in noninterest expense in the second quarter 2011
as compared to the first quarter 2011 is due mostly to a $0.3 million
decrease in expenses related to other real estate owned, a decrease of $0.3
million in salaries and employee benefit expenses and a $0.3 million
reduction in insurance and assessment expense. The decrease in salaries
and employee benefit expenses is due to a $0.2 million decrease in payroll
taxes and a decrease in average full-time employees during the quarter.
The decrease in other real estate owned expense is primarily due to a
reduction in net write-downs on other real estate owned properties
resulting from valuation adjustments and sales. The decrease in insurance
and assessment expense is a result of the change in the FDIC insurance
assessment rules as of April 1, 2011 due to the implementation of new rules
mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
We expect to continue to realize the benefits of reduced insurance
assessment throughout the remainder of 2011.
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased by $6.4 million compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to a $4.6 million decrease in expenses associated with other real estate owned, a $1.4 million decrease in insurance and assessment expenses and a $0.5 million decrease in amortization of intangible assets. The decrease in other real estate owned expense for the year-to-date period in 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is mostly due to a reduction in net write-downs on other real estate owned properties resulting from valuation adjustments and sales. The decrease in insurance and assessment expense for the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is due primarily to a favorable change in our risk classification in the third quarter 2010 as well as the change in the FDIC insurance assessment rules on April 1, 2011 as discussed above.
Preferred Stock Dividend
Effective May 15, 2011, a non-cash preferred stock dividend was paid in the form of additional shares of Series A convertible preferred stock to holders of Series A convertible preferred stock in the amount of $1.5 million.
Balance Sheet June 30, December 31, June 30, 2011 2010 % Change 2010 % Change ----------- ------------ -------- ----------- -------- (Dollars in thousands) Total assets $ 1,747,060 $ 1,870,052 (6.6)% $ 1,983,798 (11.9)% Average assets, quarter-to- date 1,767,540 1,940,513 (8.9)% 1,999,527 (11.6)% Loans, net of unearned discount 1,091,132 1,204,580 (9.4)% 1,374,208 (20.6)% Total deposits 1,346,183 1,462,351 (7.9)% 1,544,271 (12.8)% Equity ratio - GAAP 9.49% 8.57% 10.7 % 9.53% (0.4)% Tangible equity ratio 8.86% 7.88% 12.4 % 8.76% 1.1 %
At June 30, 2011, the Company had total assets of $1.7 billion, which
represented a $123.0 million decline as compared to December 31, 2010 and a
$236.7 million decline as compared to June 30, 2010. The decline in assets
from December 31, 2010 is primarily due to a $113.4 million decrease in
loans, net of unearned discount. The loan decline was due mostly to a $91.7
million decrease in commercial loans and a $19.7 million decrease in real
estate loans.
In the second quarter 2011, our classified loans declined by $25.5 million with another decrease of $17.2 million in loans internally classified as special mention or watch. In addition to this $42.7 million decline in classified and watch rated loans, other real estate owned decreased by $5.3 million in the second quarter 2011. These declines were the result of the successful execution of our strategic plan to reduce problem assets by our special assets group.
Pass-rated loans consist of all loans not otherwise adversely classified or included on our internal watch list. As described above, loans that are adversely classified or on our internal watch list decreased by $42.7 million in the second quarter. While total loans declined by $35.0 million in the second quarter 2011, our pass-rated loans increased by $7.7 million during the second quarter. In addition, our pipeline of new loan opportunities continues to grow each month.
The following table sets forth the amounts of our loans outstanding (excluding loans held for sale) at the dates indicated: June 30, March 31, December 31, June 30, 2011 2011 2010 2010 ----------- ----------- ------------ ----------- (In thousands) Loans on real estate: Residential and commercial $ 675,283 $ 659,018 $ 680,895 $ 754,019 Construction 45,421 50,539 57,351 83,389 Equity lines of credit 48,129 49,399 50,289 51,221 Commercial loans 258,990 305,627 350,725 411,605 Agricultural loans 14,193 12,582 14,413 17,968 Lease financing 3,143 3,143 3,143 4,014 Installment loans to individuals 25,912 26,942 28,582 31,936 Overdrafts 869 835 565 668 SBA and other 20,736 19,543 20,443 21,607 ----------- ----------- ------------ ----------- 1,092,676 1,127,628 1,206,406 1,376,427 Unearned discount (1,544) (1,545) (1,826) (2,219) ----------- ----------- ------------ ----------- Loans, net of unearned discount $ 1,091,132 $ 1,126,083 $ 1,204,580 $ 1,374,208 =========== =========== ============ ===========
Since June 30, 2010, the ratio of construction, land and land development
loans to capital has fallen by 28 percentage points to 73% at June 30,
2011. Similarly, the ratio of commercial real estate loans to capital has
fallen by 56 percentage points to 259% at June 30, 2011. These ratios are
below the regulatory commercial real estate concentration guidelines of
100% for land and construction loans and 300% for all investor real estate
loans, respectively.
The following table sets forth the amounts of our deposits outstanding at the dates indicated: June 30, March 31, December 31, June 30, 2011 2011 2010 2010 ----------- ----------- ------------- ----------- (In thousands) Noninterest-bearing deposits $ 419,731 $ 419,335 $ 374,500 $ 338,169 Interest-bearing demand 183,287 184,305 178,042 171,721 Money market 343,920 357,922 357,036 323,331 Savings 86,139 84,501 79,100 75,338 Time 313,106 392,257 473,673 635,712 ----------- ----------- ------------- ----------- Total deposits $ 1,346,183 $ 1,438,320 $ 1,462,351 $ 1,544,271 =========== =========== ============= ===========
Noninterest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits increased to
31.2% at June 30, 2011, as compared to 25.6% at December 31, 2010 and 21.9%
at June 30, 2010.
Non-maturity deposits at June 30, 2011 increased by $44.4 million as compared to December 31, 2010 and increased by $124.5 million as compared to June 30, 2010. The increase in non-maturity deposits is primarily attributable to the continued success of our strategic deposit gathering campaign. In addition to the $44.4 million increase in balances of non-maturity deposits in 2011, the total number of customer accounts increased by over 1% during the same period.
Time deposits continue to decrease primarily as a result of management's efforts to reduce the overall level of higher cost time deposits, particularly brokered and internet deposits. Total brokered deposits at June 30, 2011 were $80.2 million as compared to $179.9 million at December 31, 2010 and $255.5 million at June 30, 2010. Brokered deposits represent 5.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2011 as compared to 12.2% at December 31, 2010 and 16.3% at June 30, 2010. In addition to this $175.3 million decline in brokered deposits over the past twelve months, we also experienced a $70.3 million decline in internet time deposits over the same time period. The remaining decline in time deposits is primarily related to the non-renewal of other higher cost certificates of deposits. Management monitors time deposit maturities and renewals on a daily basis and will raise rates on local time deposits if necessary to grow such deposits.
Borrowings were $163.2 million at June 30, 2011 as compared to $163.2 million at December 31, 2010 and $164.3 million at June 30, 2010. The entire balance of borrowings at each balance sheet date consists of term advances with the Federal Home Loan Bank.
Regulatory Capital Ratios
All of the regulatory capital ratios are above the highest regulatory capital threshold of "well-capitalized" at June 30, 2011. The Company's and the subsidiary bank's actual capital ratios for June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are presented in the table below:
Minimum Requirement Ratio at Ratio at Minimum for "Well June 30, December 31, Capital Capitalized" 2011 2010 Requirement Institution --------- ------------ ------------ ------------ Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio: Consolidated 16.22% 14.99% 8.00% N/A Guaranty Bank and Trust Company 15.39% 14.07% 8.00% 10.00% Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio: Consolidated 9.00% 8.57% 4.00% N/A Guaranty Bank and Trust Company 14.12% 12.80% 4.00% 6.00% Leverage Ratio: Consolidated 6.71% 6.25% 4.00% N/A Guaranty Bank and Trust Company 10.53% 9.33% 4.00% 5.00%
Generally, the allowance for loan losses is included in total capital for
regulatory purposes; however, it is limited to 1.25% of total risk-weighted
assets. At June 30, 2011, approximately $22.4 million of the subsidiary
bank's allowance for loan losses was disallowed from being included in
total risk-based capital under the regulatory capital rules, or
approximately 1.71% of the subsidiary bank's risk-weighted assets. In
addition, approximately $1.3 million of deferred tax assets were disallowed
for purposes of computing Consolidated Tier 1 capital.

During the second quarter 2011, all categories of classified and watch list
loans declined by an aggregate of $42.7 million. In particular, during the
second quarter 2011 nonaccrual loans decreased by $20.5 million, other
classified loans decreased by $5.0 million and loans classified as special
mention or watch decreased by $17.2 million. Nonaccrual loans decreased
due to the $9.0 million of
charge-offs, with the remainder due mostly to loan payoffs, net of new
additions.
The types of loans included in the accruing loans past due 30-89 days as of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011 are as follows: ----------------------------------- Accruing loans past due 30-89 days ----------------------------------- June 30, 2011 March 31, 2011 ----------------- ----------------- Loan Loan Balance Percent Balance Percent -------- ------- -------- ------- (Dollars in thousands) Residential Construction, Land and Land Development $ 70 1.5% $ 3,302 22.6% Other Residential Loans 3,042 64.1% 1,220 8.4% Commercial and Industrial Loans 1,398 29.4% 5,810 39.8% Commercial Real Estate 195 4.1% 1,305 8.9% Other 45 0.9% 2,956 20.3% -------- ------- -------- ------- Total $ 4,750 100.0% $ 14,593 100.0% ======== ======= ======== =======
Net charge-offs in the second quarter 2011 were $9.0 million as compared to
$2.2 million in the first quarter 2011 and $13.5 million in the second
quarter 2010. Approximately $7.9 million of the charge-offs in the second
quarter were related to three loans, with an outstanding balance of $22.2
million prior to the charge-offs. Most of the charge-offs in the second
quarter were specifically allocated for as of March 31, 2011.
In addition to the $4.2 million of allowance specifically allocated to impaired loans, the Company has partially charged-off $15.8 million related to impaired loans on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2011. These partial charge-offs reduced the specific component of our allowance for loan losses. The general component of the allowance for loan losses remained relatively flat at $34.7 million at June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011. The general component represented 3.18% of loans, net of unearned discount, at June 30, 2011 as compared to 3.09% of loans, net of unearned discount, at the end of the previous quarter. The consistency in the overall level of the general component of the allowance for loan losses during the second quarter primarily reflects the fact charge-offs as a percentage of gross loans did not change significantly from the overall charge-off percentage over the past two years.
The Company recorded a provision for loan losses in the second quarter 2011 of $1.0 million, as compared to $2.0 million in the first quarter 2011 and $8.4 million in the second quarter 2010. The decrease in the provision for loan losses quarter over quarter reflects the continued shrinkage of our loan portfolio combined with the fact that the majority of charge-offs taken in the second quarter were specifically reserved for as of March 31, 2011. Further, additions to specific reserves requiring additional provision were minimal during the second quarter.
Shares Outstanding
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had 53,232,485 shares of common stock outstanding, including 1,518,625 shares of unvested stock awards, but excluding 156,567 shares of common stock to be issued under its deferred compensation plan. In addition, the Company had 69,013 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock outstanding, with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share.
