FIRST QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

Dunmore, PA — Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc., (OTC Bulletin Board: FDBC), parent company of The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank, announced net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 of $825,000 compared to $1,089,000 for the first quarter of 2008.  Earnings per share on a fully diluted basis for the quarter totaled $0.40 compared to $0.52 for the prior year period.

 

Net interest income increased $278,000 to $4,825,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 from $4,547,000 recorded during the first quarter of 2008.  The lower rates on interest-bearing deposits produced cost savings, which coupled with the interest income generated by the commercial loan growth offset the lower yields on earning assets, resulting in additional net interest income earned for the first quarter of 2009.  These factors improved net interest margin to 3.73% for the first quarter of 2009, compared to 3.37% for same 2008 period.

 

A provision for loan loss of $425,000 was recorded during the first quarter of 2009 with no provision required for the 2008 period.  The allowance for loan losses was 1.20% of total loans at March 31, 2009, up from 1.10% at March 31, 2008.

 

Total other income recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was $1,313,000, compared to $1,296,000 for the same quarter in 2008.  Robust mortgage banking activities produced gains that offset a non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charge and lower deposit fee levels during the quarter.

 

Total other operating expenses increased $269,000 from $4,393,000 to $4,662,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively.  The operating expense increase resulted primarily from salary and employee benefits and occupancy expenses incurred during in the first quarter of 2009 as compared to 2008.

 

“Performance in the first quarter was encouraging with gross margins strong and loan growth continuing,” stated Steven C. Ackmann, President and CEO.  “Our profits were negatively impacted by further write-downs that occurred in the investment portfolio.  With the lack of active markets for many of these securities, we are forced to rely upon valuation models, which are leading us and many others in the industry to take charges on securities.”

 



 

The Company’s assets totaled $566,786,000 at March 31, 2009 down from $575,719,000 at December 31, 2008.

 

Fidelity D & D Bancorp, Inc. serves Lackawanna and Luzerne Counties through The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank’s twelve community banking offices.  The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to the full extent permitted by law.
