EX-99 3 ex99080803pressrelease.txt TEXT OF AUG 08, 2003 PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 ------------ NEWS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: BRIEN M. CHASE, CFO AUGUST 8, 2003 (304) 525-1600 PREMIER FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2003 NET LOSS PREMIER FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC. (PREMIER), HUNTINGTON, WEST VIRGINIA (NASDAQ/NMS-PFBI), a $663 million community bank holding company with seven bank subsidiaries announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2003. As previously announced on July 31, 2003, Premier recorded a $12.1 million provision for loan losses at its subsidiary Farmers Deposit Bank (the "Bank") in the month of June as a result of the findings from the investigation prompted by conduct of the Bank's former president. As a result, on a consolidated basis Premier realized a net loss of $7,896,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2003. The loss for the second quarter compares to a $1,380,000 loss reported for the second quarter of 2002 which was also the result of additional loan loss provisions and OREO writedowns. On a per share basis, Premier's loss for the second quarter of 2003 was $1.51 per share, compared to a loss of 26 cents per share for the same quarter last year. In addition to the provision for loan losses, $558,000 of expense accruals and interest income reversals were recorded as a result of the investigation. Excluding the transactions related to the Bank investigation (the "Transactions"), Premier would have realized a net profit for the quarter ending June 30, 2003 of approximately $458,000. Premier's year-to-date results were also negatively impacted by the Bank's investigation findings. Year-to-date results total a net loss of $7,543,000 or $1.44 per share. Excluding the Transactions, year-to-date net income would have been $811,000. Premier's second quarter loss was largely due to its increased provisions for loan losses. Excluding the $12.1 million provision resulting from the Bank investigation, Premier's provision for loan losses totaled $1.3 million for the quarter. While management has not yet exhausted all efforts and means available to collect these loans, the additional provisions were made in accordance with Premier's policies regarding the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Any collections on these loans would be presented in future financial statements as recoveries of the amounts charged against the allowance. As a result, the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2003 was 4.36% of total loans compared to 2.61% of total loans at year-end 2002 and 2.02% of total loans at June 30, 2002. Net interest income for the quarter ending June 30, 2003 totaled $5.503 million, an 8.0% decrease from the $5.981 million earned in the first quarter of 2003, and a 10.5% decrease from the $6.150 million of net interest income earned in the second quarter of 2002. The decrease was due in part to over $303,000 of interest income reversals related to the Bank investigation. The remaining decrease is largely due to a lower volume of loans outstanding at Premier's other bank subsidiaries. The resulting decline in loan interest income more than offset the lower interest costs resulting from the decline in market interest rates over the past year and the repayment of certain borrowed funds. Net overhead for the quarter ending June 30, 2003 totaled $4.185 million, which included $255,000 of expenses resulting from the Bank investigation. This compares to $4.291 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $5.016 million in the second quarter of 2002. Premier has reduced its overhead expenses by reducing staff costs and increasing its volume of originating secondary market mortgages. Net overhead in the second quarter of 2002 also included $932,000 of writedowns, expenses and sales of OREO compared to $190,000 in the second quarter of this year. Total assets as of June 30, 2003 of $663 million were 2.2% less than the $678 million of total assets at year-end, largely due to the impact of the large provision for loan losses, the planned pay down of $4.7 million of borrowed funds, the non-renewal of some high rate certificates of deposit and a $3.5 million decline in non-interest bearing deposits. Shareholders' equity of $52.1 million equaled 7.9% of total assets at June 30, 2003. This compares to shareholders' equity of $59.4 million or 8.8% of total assets at December 31, 2002. Following is summary information including financial highlights for Premier as of and for the periods ending June 30, 2003.
