  Share This Story

WILMINGTON, Del., July 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- First Bank of Delaware ("the Company") (OTC Bulletin Board: FBOD), today reported second quarter 2010 earnings of $459,000 or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to $237,000 or $0.02 per diluted share for the comparable prior year period. The increase in earnings reflected the growth of our commercial loan portfolio and increases in other interest-earning assets which lead to a $1.3 million increase in our net interest income between the periods. Non-interest income declined $917,000 between the periods as we reduced our involvement with third party credit card programs. Earnings per diluted share for the six month period ended June 30, 2010 were $798,000 or $0.07 per share based on average shares outstanding of 11,447,000, compared to $701,000 or $0.06 per share for the comparable prior year period based on average shares outstanding of 11,412,000. The increased earnings of $97,000 are primarily the result of increases in net interest income, which more than offset the decrease in non-interest income. At June 30, 2010, total shareholders' equity was $42,340,000, our leverage ratio was 23.66%, our total risk-based capital ratio was 35.69%, and our book value per share was $3.71.

Total assets at June 30, 2010 were $177.4 million, representing an increase of $37.0 million or 26.4% over December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily the result of increases in loans receivable of $26.3 million, fed funds sold of $8.2 million and investments of $2.5 million.

Loans receivable at June 30, 2010 totaled $112.3 million, an increase of $26.3 million or 30.1% from December 31, 2009. The increase resulted from several new commercial lending relationships that were added in the first six months of 2010. The increase in commercial loans was spread among various types of relationships including commercial and industrial, construction and commercial real estate. The Company has increased its number of loan officers and loan production capabilities in 2010. We look to continue growth in our commercial loan production over the next few quarters.

Total deposits increased $36.8 million or 38.9% to $131.5 million at June 30, 2010 from $94.7 million at December 31, 2009. Our commercial customers have established higher deposit balances with us and we have expanded our electronic payment offerings which have lead to additional deposit growth and fee income.

At June 30, 2010, our non-performing assets were $3.2 million, a $400K decrease from $3.6 million at December 31, 2009. Non-performing assets represented 1.79% of total assets at June 30, 2010. Non-performing assets as of June 30, 2010 consist of two OREO properties totaling $1.0 million, two commercial relationships that are in non-accrual status but continue to make payments, totaling $1.8 million, and short-term installment loans totaling $355K.

The Company recently launched its own suite of products, including the Simply Credit line of credit and Simply Debit prepaid card products. The Company will launch its secured credit card in August. These products should provide additional growth opportunities for the Company.

The Company's CEO and President, Alonzo J. Primus, commented, "Our earnings have increased from prior year on both a quarter and year to date basis. Our growth in interest income has allowed us to offset lower non-interest income from credit card products as we have reduced our third party relationships. We continue to focus on growing our commercial banking area, expanding our electronic payment offerings, growing fee income products and offering our own suite of consumer loan and card products. The addition of several new lenders lead to loan growth of 30.1%." Mr. Primus added: "We continue to attract high quality customers as a result of our high capital levels, strong loan portfolio and high amounts of liquidity. We are maintaining pricing and underwriting discipline in growing our loan portfolio and are diversifying the types of loans that we make. This has allowed us to expand our commercial customer base in the Delaware market and in the contiguous counties of Pennsylvania. We believe our opportunities for future loan growth remain strong."
