· | Net interest income increased $570,000 to $6.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 from $5.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The growth in average loan and securities balances led to an increase in net interest income when comparing the quarters. |
· | Net interest rate spread decreased 1 basis point to 3.38% as compared to 3.39% when comparing the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Net interest margin also decreased 1 basis point to 3.45% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 3.46% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. |
· | The provision for loan losses amounted to $374,000 and $411,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The level of provision has decreased as the result of declines in delinquencies and loans adversely classified, which have been partially offset by growth in commercial real estate and commercial loans. Allowance for loan losses to total loans receivable remained unchanged at 1.81% as of September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015. |
· | Net charge-offs amounted to $50,000 and $110,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, a decrease of $60,000. |
· | Nonperforming assets were 0.66% and 0.75% of total assets and nonperforming loans were 0.92% and 1.06% of net loans at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. |
· | Noninterest income decreased $23,000, or 1.6%, to $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $1.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to a decrease in loan fees which are included in other operating income, partially offset by an increase in debit card fees resulting from continued growth in the number of checking accounts with debit cards. |
· | Noninterest expense increased $243,000, or 5.7%, to $4.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $4.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The increase in noninterest expense is primarily the result of an increase in expenses related to foreclosed real estate (primarily real estate taxes) as well as write-downs of several of the properties within foreclosed real estate based on pending sales or a decrease in the list price. Salaries and employee benefits expense and occupancy expense also increased and were primarily due to the opening of a new branch in Kingston during the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Partially offsetting the aforementioned increases were decreases in computer software, supplies and support. During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, a one-time fee was paid to one of the Company’s vendors related to the renegotiation of the contract for support services. |
· | The provision for income taxes directly reflects the expected tax associated with the pre-tax income generated for the given year and certain regulatory requirements. The effective tax rate was 23.2% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to 27.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The effective tax rate has continued to decline as a result of income derived from tax exempt bonds and loans as well as continued loan growth within the Company’s real estate investment trust subsidiary. Also contributing to the lower effective income tax rate is the tax benefits derived from the Company’s pooled captive insurance company, as premium income received by the pooled captive insurance company is exempt from income taxes. The premiums paid to the pooled captive insurance company by the Company and its banking subsidiaries are tax deductible. |
· | Total assets of the Company were $767.7 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $738.6 million at June 30, 2015, an increase of $29.1 million, or 3.9%. |
· | Securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity amounted to $270.3 million, or 35.2% of assets, at September 30, 2015 compared to $255.0 million, or 34.5% of assets, at June 30, 2015, an increase of $15.3 million, or 6.0%. |
· | Net loans receivable increased $17.0 million, or 3.8%, to $460.5 million at September 30, 2015 from $443.5 million at June 30, 2015. The loan growth experienced during the quarter consisted primarily of $11.7 million in commercial real estate loans, $2.3 million in residential real estate loans, $943,000 in residential construction loans, $87,000 in multi-family mortgage loans, $370,000 in home equity loans, and $4.5 million in commercial loans, and was partially offset by a $2.7 million decrease in commercial construction loans, and a $324,000 increase in the allowance for loan losses. |
· | Total deposits increased $41.6 million, or 6.7% to $664.3 million at September 30, 2015 from $622.7 million at June 30, 2015. This increase was primarily the result of an increase of $37.3 million in balances at Greene County Commercial Bank due primarily to the collection of annual taxes by several local school districts. |
· | The Company had $8.2 million of overnight borrowings, and $18.8 million of term borrowings, with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York at September 30, 2015 compared to $22.9 million of overnight borrowings and $18.8 million of term borrowings at June 30, 2015. |
· | Shareholders’ equity increased to $68.8 million at September 30, 2015 from $66.9 million at June 30, 2015, as net income of $2.2 million and a $40,000 decrease in other accumulated comprehensive loss was partially offset by dividends declared and paid of $355,000. Other changes in equity, totaling a $26,000 increase, were the result of options exercised with the Company’s 2008 Stock Option Plan. |
