EX-99.1 2 ex99-1.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 Exhibit 99.1 PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Robert W. White, Chairman, President and CEO or Jack Sandoski, Senior Vice President and CFO (215) 886-8280 ABINGTON COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES INCREASE IN NET INCOME FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2006 Jenkintown, PA (July 28, 2006) - Abington Community Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: ABBC), the "mid-tier" holding company for Abington Bank (the "Bank"), reported net income of $1.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, representing an increase of 2.0% over the comparable 2005 period. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.12 for the quarter compared to $0.11 for the second quarter of 2005. Additionally, the Company reported net income of $3.5 million for the first six months of 2006, representing an increase of 11.8% over the comparable 2005 period. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.23 for the first six months of 2006 from $0.20 for the first six months of 2005. Mr. Robert W. White, Chairman, President and CEO of the Company, stated, "We are proud to report increased net income despite the flat yield curve that has placed ongoing pressure on our interest rate spread and net interest margin. We have been able to sustain our growth with new loan originations in excess of $125 million for the first six months of 2006, and we plan to further continue our growth with the opening of new branches in Concordville and Lansdale, Pennsylvania in the fall of 2006 and in Springhouse and Chalfont, Pennsylvania in the beginning of 2007." Mr. White continued that, "We remain committed to providing enhanced returns and long-term value to our stockholders. During the first six months of 2006 we increased our quarterly cash dividend to $0.06 from $0.05, and we purchased approximately 577,000 shares of Company stock in our stock repurchase program. At the beginning of July, we were added to the Russell 3000 Index as part of their annual reconstitution. We believe that the addition of Abington Community Bancorp to this index representing the 3,000 U.S. public companies with the highest market capitalization is indicative of our success serving our community and our shareholders." Net interest income was $5.8 million and $11.3 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, representing increases of 10.3% and 11.1%, respectively, over the comparable 2005 periods. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 1 increased $2.5 million or 26.3% over the comparable 2005 period. Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased $4.9 million or 26.5% over the comparable 2005 period. For both the three-month and six-month periods, the increase in interest income was primarily a result of growth in the average balance of our loan portfolio combined with an increase in the average yield on those assets. The average balance of our loan portfolio increased $112.9 million or 25.4% to $558.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 from $445.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The average yield on our loan portfolio increased 58 basis points to 6.77% from 6.19% over the same period. Similarly, the average balance of our loan portfolio increased $117.7 million or 27.3% to $548.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from $430.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The average yield on our loan portfolio increased 51 basis points to 6.63% from 6.12% over the same six-month period. Our increase in interest income for both the three-month and six-month periods was partially offset by an increase in our interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased $2.0 million or 45.2% over the comparable 2005 period. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased $3.8 million or 45.2% over the comparable 2005 period. For both the three- and six-month periods, the increase in interest expense was primarily the result of increases in the average balances of deposits and FHLB advances as well as increases in the average rates paid on deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings. The majority of the increase in interest expense during these periods, however, was due to the increase in interest expense on deposits. During the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005, our average deposit balance grew by $83.9 million or 21.1%, primarily due to growth in higher-rate certificates of deposit. During the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005, our average deposit balance grew by $82.1 million or 21.1%, again, primarily due to growth in higher-rate certificates of deposit. As a result of this growth, as well as the rising interest rate environment, the average rate we paid on our deposits increased 99 basis points to 3.20% for the second quarter of 2006 from 2.21% for the second quarter of 2005. Similarly, the average rate we paid on our deposits increased 89 basis points to 3.03% for the first six months of 2006 from 2.14% for the first six months of 2005. Our average interest rate spread for the second quarter of 2006 decreased to 2.23% from 2.33% for the second quarter of 2005. Our average interest rate spread for the first six months of 2006 decreased to 2.22% from 2.31% for the first six months of 2005. We made an $8,000 provision to the allowance for loan losses during the second quarter of 2006 with no such provision during the second quarter of 2005. No provision was made during the first quarter of either year. The provision for loan losses is charged to expense as necessary to bring our allowance for loan losses to a sufficient level to cover known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The provision taken during the 2006 quarter was primarily the result of growth in the loan portfolio while the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio remains strong. At June 30, 2006, non-performing loans amounted to 0.05% of loans receivable and our allowance for loan losses amounted to 473.5% of non-performing loans. Our total non-interest income amounted to $751,000 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $762,000 for the second quarter of 2005. The slight decrease was due primarily to a $28,000 decrease in gain on derivative instruments, net, as our final swap agreement expired in December 2 2005, partially offset by a $23,000 increase in other non-interest income, primarily due to an increase in appraisal income. Our total non-interest income amounted to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase of $104,000 was due primarily to a $169,000 increase in income on bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") and a $24,000 increase in other non-interest income, partially offset by decreases in service charge income and in gain on derivative instruments, net, of $37,000 and $43,000, respectively. Our total non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2006 amounted to $4.0 million, representing an increase of $456,000 or 12.8% from the second quarter of 2005. The overall increase was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, depreciation, data processing, advertising and other non-interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in professional services expense. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $249,000 or 13.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to additional expenses of $186,000 in the aggregate relating to the Company's 2005 Stock Option Plan ("SOP") and 2005 Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP"). The remainder of the increase in salaries and employee benefits expense was due to growth in the total number of employees, normal merit increases in salaries, and higher health and insurance benefit costs. The increase in depreciation expense of $47,000 was a result of our increase in facilities, primarily due to the Bank's new branch in Warrington, Pennsylvania which opened in April 2006. The increase in data processing expense of $64,000 was due to an increase in the volume of our deposit transactions, in part because of the new Warrington branch. The increase in advertising expense of $29,000 was a result of increased advertising to promote our deposit products. Additional expenses of approximately $77,000 were recognized in other non-interest expense for SOP and RRP awards to directors, but were somewhat offset by decreases in various other categories of other non-interest expense. The decrease in professional services expense of $33,000 was primarily the result of our change in independent auditors. Our total non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 amounted to $7.8 million, representing an increase of $762,000 or 10.8% from the six months ended June 30, 2005. As was the case for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the overall increase for the six-month period was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, depreciation, data processing, advertising and other non-interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in professional services expense. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $566,000 or 15.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to additional expenses of $368,000 in the aggregate relating to the SOP and RRP, with the remainder of the increase due, again, to growth in the total number of employees, normal merit increases in salaries, and higher health and insurance benefit costs. Increases in depreciation of $72,000, data processing of $35,000 and advertising of $29,000 for the six-month period resulted from the same factors that created the increases for the three-month period. Additional expenses of approximately $154,000 were recognized in other non-interest expense for SOP and RRP awards to directors, but were somewhat offset by decreases in various other categories of other non-interest expense. The decrease in professional services expense of $63,000 was primarily the result of our change in independent auditors. 3 Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2006 amounted to $731,000 compared to $704,000 for the second quarter of 2005. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 amounted to $1.4 million compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Our effective tax rate increased to 29.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, from 28.9% for quarter ended June 30, 2005, however, our effective tax rate decreased to 29.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from 29.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The Company's total assets increased $50.2 million, or 5.9%, to $894.3 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $844.1 million at December 31, 2005. The primary reason for the increase in total assets during the first six months of 2006 was a $50.8 million or 9.6% increase in net loans receivable. The largest loan growth occurred in one- to four-family residential loans, which increased $33.7 million or 10.4% and construction loans, which increased $15.1 million or 11.4%. Additionally, multi-family residential and commercial loans increased $8.4 million or 11.0%. Also contributing to the overall increase in assets during the first six months of 2006 was an increase in property and equipment, net, of $1.6 million or 25.1%, primarily as a result of increased investment in our new branches. The first of these branches opened in April 2006 in Warrington, Pennsylvania, with additional branches expected to open later this year and early next year. These increases were somewhat offset by a decrease in investment and mortgage-backed securities of $5.8 million in the aggregate, which occurred as a portion of our maturities and repayments were reinvested into new loans. Our total deposits increased $40.8 million or 8.1% to $542.0 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $501.2 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to an increase in certificate accounts of $56.6 million that was partially offset by a decrease in savings and money market accounts of $14.7 million. The shift towards higher-rate certificates of deposit is a result of the increased rates available on those products relative to other deposit products or other investments in the current interest rate environment. The Company continues to remain focused on maintaining and growing its base of core deposits over the long term. Our other borrowed money increased $6.9 million to $23.0 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $16.1 million at December 31, 2006. This increase reflects an increase in the amount of securities repurchase agreements entered into with certain commercial checking account customers. Our stockholders' equity decreased $6.8 million to $110.4 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $117.2 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to the purchase of approximately 577,000 shares of the Company's common stock for an aggregate of $8.2 million as part of the Company's stock repurchase program announced in January 2006. The payment of the Company's quarterly cash dividends of $0.05 and $0.06 per share in March and June, respectively, reduced retained earnings by $1.7 million, however the addition of our net income for the first six months of 2006, resulted in a net increase to retained earnings of $1.8 million.
