COEUR D' ALENE, Idaho, April 16, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jack W. Gustavel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Idaho Independent Bank ("IIB" or the "Bank") (OTCBB:IIBK), announced IIB's consolidated unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. Mr. Gustavel reported that IIB's net income for the quarter was $501,000, or $0.06 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $362,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, and a net loss of $486,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. "IIB has made real progress in improving asset quality, increasing earnings, and laying the groundwork for future growth," Mr. Gustavel said.
IIB's total assets as of March 31, 2013, increased $10.7 million, or 2.4%, to $462.2 million from $451.5 million at March 31, 2012. Deposits and repurchase agreements increased $14.4 million, or 3.8%, to $393.2 million from $378.8 million at March 31, 2012. Total loans decreased $11.8 million, or 5.0%, to $225.5 million over the same timeframe. To help explain the decrease in loan totals, Mr. Gustavel stated that new loan production was up but was more than offset by a planned reduction in concentrations and non-performing loans. IIB's reserve for loan losses totaled $6.0 million as of the end of the quarter, or 2.7% of total loans, excluding loans held-for-sale.
IIB's capital ratios continue to exceed thresholds required to be considered "Well-Capitalized" under regulatory guidelines. The Bank's Tier One Capital Ratio and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 11.40% and 16.56%, respectively, at March 31, 2013.
IIB plans to file its Consolidated Report of Condition and Income for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, (the "Call Report") with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation later in April. The Call Report will be available on the Federal Financial Institutions Examinations Council website at http://cdr.ffiec.gov/Public/.
