EX-99 3 ex-99.txt PRESS RELEASE News Release ------------ October 24, 2003 Contact: Dennis R. Stewart, EVP/CFO FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (215) 579-4000 TF Financial Corporation Announces Third Quarter Results And Quarterly Dividend Newtown, Pennsylvania: TF Financial Corporation (Nasdaq National Market - THRD) today reported a net loss of $8,565,000 ($3.07 per diluted share) for the third quarter of 2003 and a year to date net loss of $7,350,000 ($2.69 per diluted share.) These amounts include the $9,334,000 ($3.35 per diluted share) net cost of the Corporation's debt refinancing transaction completed during September 2003. Excluding this transaction, the Corporation's earnings were $769,000 ($0.28 per diluted share) for the third quarter of 2003 compared with $1,375,000 ($0.51 per diluted share) during the third quarter of 2002. Excluding the debt refinancing transaction, year-to-date earnings for 2003 were $1,984,000 ($0.72 per diluted share) compared with $3,655,000 ($1.34 per diluted share) during the first nine months of 2002. The Corporation also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share, payable November 14, 2003 to shareholders of record on November 5. On September 12, 2003 the Corporation announced that it had completed a series of transactions that resulted in the refinancing or repayment of $187.4 million of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings whose interest cost to the Corporation had been 5.46%. $80 million of these borrowings were refinanced at 3.23%; the remaining $107.4 million were repaid. The refinancing and early repayment costs charged by the Federal Home Loan Bank were $13,765,000. In addition, a portion of the funds used to repay these borrowings came from the sale of $79.7 million of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities, which had been yielding 1.93%, at a loss of $377,000. The combined effect of these transactions was a cost of $14,142,000 or $9,334,000 after tax. Although stockholders' equity decreased to $54,174,000 at September 30, 2003, the Corporation's equity to assets ratio increased to 8.96% compared to 8.72% at December 31, 2002 because of a reduction in the Corporation's total assets to $604.7 million from $721.0 million at December 31, 2002. Excluding the effect of the debt refinancing transaction, the Corporation's pre-tax income during the third quarter of 2003 was $1,015,000 compared with $1,813,000 during the third quarter of 2002. The decrease is largely attributable to a $295,000 decrease in net interest income and the absence of any gains on the sale of securities in the third quarter of 2003 compared with the $419,000 of gains on the sale of securities that occurred in 2002. Other significant, non-recurring expense items during the third quarter of 2003 include $71,000 of compensation and benefits paid to the former president of the Corporation, who retired on July 1, 2003, and $62,000 of additional expense due to revisions in the useful lives of certain depreciable and amortizable assets. Non-recurring income during the third quarter of 2003 was composed of a $110,000 gain on the sale of real estate. While decreasing compared to the third quarter of 2002, net interest income increased by $488,000 compared to the second quarter of 2003 as a result of the Corporation's increased loan originations and substantial reduction in interest-bearing cash balances during both the second and third quarters of 2003. The Corporation's loans receivable were $400,766,000 at September 30, 2003 compared to $359,208,000 at June 30, 2003 and $370,092,000 at December 31, 2002. Similarly, the Corporation's cash and cash equivalents were $6,106,000 at September 30, 2003 compared to $37,589,000 at June 30, 2003 and $100,580,000 at December 31, 2002. Taking the debt refinancing transaction into account, there is expected to be a further increase in the Corporation's net interest income in the fourth quarter of 2003.
