Unity Bancorp Reports 26.5% increase in First Quarter Earnings

 

Clinton, NJ - Unity Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTY), parent company of Unity Bank, reported net income of $1.7 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2006; a 26.5% increase compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Return on average assets and average common equity for the first quarter of 2006 were 1.08% and 16.26%, respectively, as compared to 1.03% and 14.63%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2005.

 

“We are extremely pleased with operating results for the first quarter of 2006 and continue to remain optimistic about earnings for 2006,” said Unity President and Chief Executive Officer, James A. Hughes. “Earnings for the quarter were driven by strong loan and deposit growth.”

 

Net interest income was $6.1 million for the first quarter of 2006; a 15.0% increase compared to a year ago. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an increase in interest-earning assets, partially offset by a decrease in net interest margin. Net interest margin was 4.12% for the first quarter of 2006, compared to 4.30% for the first quarter of 2005. The Federal Reserve Bank has raised rates 15 times or 375 basis points since 2004. These increases have resulted in a flat yield curve and a challenging interest-rate environment. Despite this environment, the Company was able to grow net interest income, due to strong growth in interest earning assets, partially offset by a slight decrease in net interest margin. The effect of the flat yield curve may cause the net interest margin to further contract in 2006.

 



 

The provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2006 was $300 thousand, compared to $300 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 were $72 thousand, compared to net-charge offs of $214 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

 

Total non-interest income for the first quarter of 2006 was $2.0 million, up 11.8% from the same period a year ago. Service charges on deposits for the first quarter of 2006 were flat compared to the first quarter of 2005. Service and loan fees for the first quarter of 2006 decreased 26.3% from a year ago, due to a decrease in prepayment fees on commercial loans and loan processing fees. Gains on sales of SBA loans amounted to $782 thousand for the first quarter of 2006, compared to $460 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Other income for the first quarter of 2006 increased 63.6%, due primarily to an increase in loan referral fees.

 

Total non-interest expenses for the first quarter of 2006 were $5.3 million, an increase of 13.1% from the prior year’s comparable quarter. The increase from the prior year’s comparable quarter was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits, processing and communications, furniture and equipment, occupancy expense, professional fees and other expenses. Compensation and benefits increased 13.7%, due to increased head count, merit increases and rising health insurance costs. Processing and communications increased 13.1%, due to increased transactional volume. Furniture and equipment and occupancy costs increased 19.5% and 9.3% respectively, due to the addition of a new branch in the fourth quarter of 2005 and the refurbishment of the existing branch network. Loan servicing costs decreased 42.9%, due to the collection of expenses on delinquent loans.

 

Total assets at March 31, 2006 were $628.1 million, a 19.4% increase from a year ago. The increase in assets from the prior year was primarily due to growth in the Company’s loan portfolio. Total loans at March 31, 2006 were $468.0 million, a 22.8% increase from March 31, 2005. The growth in the loan portfolio occurred primarily in Commercial and SBA lending. Commercial loans increased $64.6 million, or 30.1%; SBA loans increased $19.4 million, or 30.9%; residential mortgage loans were flat from the prior year; and consumer loans increased $2.3 million, or 5.3%. During the quarter, the Company sold approximately $5.0 million of commercial Motel/Hotel loans with a gain of approximately $82 thousand.

 

At March 31, 2006, the allowance for loan losses was $7.1 million, or 1.52% of total loans, compared to 1.56% a year ago. Non-performing assets at March 31, 2006 were $3.8 million, or 0.81% of total loans and OREO, as compared to 0.83% of total loans and OREO from a year ago. There were $326 thousand of loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing as of March 31, 2006, compared to $313 thousand at March 31, 2005.

 

Total deposits at March 31, 2006, were $534.4 million; a 19.3% increase from March 31, 2005. This increase was primarily the result of growth in savings accounts, demand and time deposits, partially offset by the decline in interest bearing checking accounts. Demand deposit accounts increased $3.4 million, or 4.4% from March 31, 2005. Savings accounts increased $66.0 million, or 58.5% from March 31, 2005, due to a high-yield savings product. Time deposits increased $57.9 million, or 56.1%, from March 31, 2005.

 



 

“Unity currently has 14 branches and two branches in development; Washington and Middlesex in New Jersey. We are committed to moving forward with our targeted branch expansion plans along the I-78 corridor and are actively looking for branch sites in the Lehigh Valley area in Pennsylvania,” said Mr. Hughes. “In addition we will be analyzing the profitability of our current branch network.”

 

Total shareholders’ equity was $42.5 million at March 31, 2006; a 16.7% increase from the prior year. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to retained profits, partially offset by the payment of cash dividends and a decline in other comprehensive income.

 

As of March 31, 2006, the Company’s Tier I leverage ratio was 8.26%, Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 9.93%, and total risk-based capital ratio was 11.18%. All regulatory capital ratios exceeded the well-capitalized, federal capital adequacy requirements as of March 31, 2006.
