ABINGTON BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES RECORD NET INCOME FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER OF 2007

Jenkintown, PA (January 31, 2008) – Abington Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ABBC), the parent holding company for Abington Bank (the “Bank”), reported record net income of $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007, representing an increase of $544,000 or 34.5% over the comparable 2006 period. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.09 for the 2007 quarter compared to $0.07 for the fourth quarter of 2006. Additionally, the Company reported net income of $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, representing an increase of $264,000 or 3.9% over 2006. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.30 for 2007 from $0.28 for 2006. Earnings per share for the prior periods have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the second-step conversion and reorganization of the Company, which occurred on June 27, 2007.

Mr. Robert W. White, Chairman, President and CEO of the Company, stated, “Amid the turmoil in the financial markets, we are extremely pleased to report record earnings for 2007. Following our second-step conversion in June, we have continued our strategy of consistent, conservative loan underwriting and prudent investing. We have no exposure to subprime credit in our loan or investment portfolios, and our operations have not been directly affected by the fallout in the subprime credit markets. For 140 years, we have lent money in a responsible manner that has contributed to our growth and benefited the communities that we serve.”

Net interest income was $7.2 million and $25.7 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2007, respectively, representing increases of 29.2% and 14.2%, respectively, over the comparable 2006 periods. Our net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2007 increased 31 basis points to 2.89% from 2.58% for the fourth quarter of 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2007 our net interest margin increased five basis points to 2.73% from 2.68% for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our average interest rate spread for the three months and year ended December 31, 2007 decreased to 1.99% and 1.94%, respectively, from 2.00% and 2.13%, respectively, for the comparable 2006 periods. Over consecutive quarters, however, our average interest rate spread of 1.99% for the fourth quarter of 2007 was an increase of seven basis points over the third quarter of 2007 and 14 basis points over the second quarter of 2007.
 

 
Interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2007 increased $1.8 million or 13.4% over the comparable 2006 period to $15.0 million. Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2007 increased $7.0 million or 14.0% over 2006 to $56.8 million. For both the three months and year, the increase in interest income was primarily a result of growth in the average balance of our interest-earning assets. The most significant impact was due to increases in the average balances of loans receivable and other interest-earning assets, although the average balance of our investment securities also increased. The average balance of our loan portfolio increased $76.1 million or 12.6% to $677.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 from $601.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. The average balance of our other interest-earning assets increased $45.2 million or 159.2% over the same period, primarily as a result of an increase in our interest-bearing deposits in other banks. The average balance of our loan portfolio increased $75.6 million or 13.2% to $646.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $570.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The average balance of our other interest-earning assets increased $35.3 million or 136.9% over the same period.  For the year ended December 31, 2007, an increase in the average yield on our interest-earning assets of nine basis points also contributed to the increase in interest income over the prior year.

Our increases in interest income for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2007 were offset to varying degrees by increases in our interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2007 increased $136,000 or 1.8% over the comparable 2006 period. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 increased $3.8 million or 13.9% over the comparable 2006 period. For the three-month period, the increase in interest expense was the result of an increase in interest expense on deposits, partially offset by decreases in interest expense on advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and other borrowings. During the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006, our average deposit balance grew by $39.1 million or 7.4%, primarily due to growth in higher-rate certificates of deposit. This was partially offset by a decrease of 25 basis points in the average rate we paid on our certificates of deposit and an overall decrease of 10 basis points in the average rate we paid on total deposits. During the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006, our interest expense on advances from the FHLB decreased $73,000 or 3.0%, primarily due to a $7.8 million decrease in the average balance of those borrowings. Over the same period, our interest expense on other borrowings decreased $29,000 or 13.5%, primarily due to a decrease of 61 basis points in the average rate paid on those borrowings. Year-over-year, the increase in interest expense was primarily the result of an increase in interest expense on deposits, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on advances from the FHLB. During the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006, our average deposit balance grew by $63.5 million or 12.8%, again, primarily due to growth in higher-rate certificates of deposit.  The average rate we paid on our certificates of deposits increased 33 basis points and the average rate we paid on our total deposits increased 42 basis points in 2007 compared to 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006, our interest expense on advances from the FHLB decreased $752,000 or 7.8%, primarily due to an $18.4 million decrease in the average balance of those borrowings.

We recorded a $184,000 provision for loan losses during the fourth quarter of 2007, and our provision for loan losses amounted to $457,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. During the fourth quarter of 2006, we recorded a provision of $58,000 to the allowance for loan losses, resulting in a provision of $186,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006. 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. Our loan portfolio at December 31, 2007 included an aggregate of $1.4 million of non-accrual commercial real estate and construction loans to one borrower. At September 30, 2007 our loan portfolio included an aggregate of $5.0 million of non-accrual commercial real estate and construction loans to two borrowers. In December 2007, an agreement was reached for the sale of the underlying collateral property on two of these loans with an aggregate value of approximately $1.8 million. The payment from this sale, which was received in January 2008, included the full amount of the loans, as well as all past due interest and fees. Three more of these loans with an aggregate balance of $1.8 million were settled in October and December when we acquired the underlying collateral properties through foreclosure. These properties are classified as Real Estate Owned (“REO”) and are recorded at their fair value of $1.6 million on the December 31, 2007 balance sheet. A loss of approximately $197,000 was recognized through the allowance for loan losses in conjunction with the acquisitions. No reserve is recorded at December 31, 2007 on the remaining $1.4 million of non-accrual loans or the $1.6 million of REO. At December 31, 2007, non-performing loans amounted to 0.23% of loans receivable and our allowance for loan losses amounted to 116.8% of non-performing loans. At December 31, 2006, non-performing loans of approximately $2.3 million amounted to 0.42% of loans receivable and our allowance for loan losses amounted to 62.7% of non-performing loans. The Company did not have any REO at December 31, 2006.

Our total non-interest income amounted to $997,000 for the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to $715,000 for the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase of $282,000 was due primarily to an increase in income on bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) of $287,000 partially offset by a decrease in service charge income of $7,000. The increase in income on BOLI resulted primarily from the purchase of $20.0 million of additional BOLI during the third quarter of 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2007, our total non-interest income amounted to $3.2 million compared to $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase of $301,000 resulted from a $429,000 increase in income on BOLI that was partially offset by an $86,000 decrease in service charge income and a $39,000 decrease in other non-interest income. As was the case for the three-month periods, the increase in income on BOLI for 2007 when compared to 2006 resulted primarily from the purchase of additional BOLI during the third quarter of 2007. The decrease in service charge income in 2007 compared to 2006 resulted primarily from a $141,000 decrease in overdraft fees, partially offset by a $68,000 increase in debit card income. The decrease in other non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006 resulted primarily from a $36,000 decrease in appraisal income.

Our total non-interest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2007 amounted to $5.1 million, representing an increase of $1.0 million from the fourth quarter of 2006. The largest increases were in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, and professional services. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $466,000 quarter-over-quarter due primarily to growth in the total number of employees, normal merit increases in salaries, and higher health and insurance benefit costs. Also contributing to the increase in salaries and employee benefits expense was a $139,000 or 86.1% increase in the expense for our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). This increase was due primarily to the purchase of additional shares of Company stock by our ESOP in conjunction with the second-step conversion and reorganization completed in June 2007. Occupancy expense increased by $182,000 quarter-over-quarter. The increase primarily was the result of our new branches in Lansdale, Chalfont, Whitemarsh and Springhouse, Pennsylvania, all of which opened during 2007. Our professional services expense increased $196,000, quarter-over-quarter, due primarily to increased legal and audit expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, our total non-interest expenses amounted to $18.7 million, representing an increase of $2.9 million or 18.7% from the year ended December 31, 2006. As was the case for the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the largest increases were in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, and professional services. The causes for the increases in these expenses year-over-year mirrored the causes for the increases for the quarter-over-quarter. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $1.4 million for 2007 compared to 2006 due primarily to growth in the total number of employees, normal merit increases in salaries, and higher health and insurance benefit costs, as well as a $406,000 or 72.1% increase in the expense for our ESOP. Occupancy expense increased by $453,000 for 2007 compared to 2006 as a result of our new branches. Our professional services expense increased $447,000 over the same period due primarily to increased legal and audit expenses. For 2007 compared to 2006, other non-interest expenses also increased. Our other non-interest expenses increased by $254,000 or 13.0% year-over-year due largely to increases in expenses for office supplies, copying, and postage as a result of our new branch offices.

Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2007 amounted to $797,000 compared to $593,000 for the fourth quarter of 2006. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 amounted to $2.7 million compared to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our effective tax rate was unchanged at 27.3% for the fourth quarter of 2007 and 2006, however, our effective tax rate improved to 27.8% for the year ended December 31, 2007 from 28.4% for the year ended December 31, 2006. The improvement resulted primarily from an increase in our tax-exempt income from municipal securities and BOLI as a percent of our total pretax income.

The Company’s total assets increased $154.5 million, or 16.7%, to $1.1 billion at December 31, 2007 compared to $925.2 million at December 31, 2006. The increase in total assets was due primarily to $134.7 million in net proceeds received from the Company’s second-step conversion and stock offering completed on June 27, 2007. Our cash and cash equivalents increased $23.5 million to $68.1 million at December 31, 2007 from $44.6 million at December 31, 2006, primarily due to an increase in our interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Additionally, our total investment and mortgage-backed securities increased by an aggregate of $31.1 million as purchases of $99.7 million and unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $3.5 million exceeded the aggregate amount of calls, maturities and repayments of $71.9 million during 2007. Our net loans receivable increased $77.0 million or 12.7% during 2007. The largest loan growth occurred in one- to four-family residential loans, which increased $48.4 million or 12.9%, construction loans, which increased $33.7 million or 25.0%, and commercial business loans, which increased $18.0 million or 157.3%.  Consumer non-real estate loans also increased $3.5 million or 79.9%. These increases were partially offset by a $15.3 million decrease in multi-family residential and commercial real estate loans and an $862,000 decrease in home equity lines of credit. Also contributing to the overall increase in assets during 2007 was the purchase of $20.0 million of BOLI during the third quarter, which increased our total BOLI to $37.3 million at December 31, 2007.

Our total deposits increased $22.6 million or 3.9% to $609.6 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $587.0 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to growth in certificate accounts of $25.7 million. Increases in savings and money market accounts of $2.0 million and interest-bearing checking accounts of $3.1 million during 2007 were offset by a decrease of $8.2 million in non-interest-bearing checking accounts. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased $6.7 million or 3.4% to $189.6 million at December 31, 2007 from $196.3 million at December 31, 2006.

Our stockholders’ equity increased $135.8 million to $249.9 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $114.1 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was due primarily to the $134.7 million in net proceeds received from the Company’s second-step conversion and stock offering, which occurred in June 2007. In conjunction with this offering, our ESOP purchased approximately 1.0 million additional shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate of $10.4 million. Our retained earnings increased $3.1 million during 2007 as our net income of $7.1 million was partially offset by a reduction of $4.0 million resulting from the payment of our quarterly dividends. Our accumulated other comprehensive loss improved $2.4 million due primarily to unrealized gains on available for sale securities.
