TrustCo Announces Third Quarter Net Income Up 10%


GLENVILLE, N.Y., Oct. 21, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TrustCo Bank Corp NY (TrustCo) (Nasdaq:TRST) today announced net income for the third quarter of 2011 of $9.2 million, up 10.4% over the prior-year period and equal to diluted earnings per share of $0.100, as compared to net income of $8.4 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.109 for the third quarter of 2010. Third quarter 2011 per share results include the effect of the common stock offering completed on July 6, 2011. The Company also noted that third quarter 2010 results included one-time tax items that provided a net benefit of $836 thousand. On a pre-tax basis, earnings were up 25.0% from $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $14.4 million in the third quarter of 2011. The third quarter of 2011 also saw continued core balance sheet growth. Robert J. McCormick, President and Chief Executive Officer noted, "We are pleased that the third quarter resulted in solid earnings gains, continued core loan and deposit growth and a decline of approximately $1.3 million in nonperforming assets versus the second quarter, and we look forward to the remainder of 2011 and 2012 with optimism as our internal trends remain positive. The banking industry still faces challenges, but the progress we have made this year has helped to position TrustCo for continued growth and profitability." Return on average equity and return on average assets were 10.91% and 0.88%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2011, compared to 12.81% and 0.86% for the third quarter of 2010. Increased capital from the common stock offering led to a lower return on average equity for the third quarter of 2011. The efficiency ratio improved to 46.51% for the third quarter of 2011, compared to 49.06% for the third quarter of 2010, due to a combination of revenue growth and tight control of core operating expenses.

For the first nine months of 2011 net income was $24.4 million and resulted in diluted earnings per share of $0.296, as compared to the first nine months of 2010 net income of $22.4 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.292. Net income was up 8.7% from the first nine months of 2010 to the first nine months of 2011, and income before taxes was up 12.7%. Return on average equity and return on average assets were 11.38% and 0.80%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2011 and 11.83% and 0.80% for the comparable period in 2010. 

On July 6, 2011 the Company completed an offering of 15.6 million common shares, raising net proceeds of $67.6 million. The additional capital significantly improved the Company's capital position, with the tangible equity ratio rising from 6.59% at June 30, 2011 to 8.04% at September 30, 2011. Tangible book value per share also increased, from $3.47 per share to $3.62 per share over that period. Mr. McCormick noted that "Our strengthened capital position prepares us for continued balance sheet growth in the future." 

Mr. McCormick also noted "We continue to see some signs of economic improvement in the markets in which we operate, although some core problems remain, particularly high levels of unemployment. We believe our long-term focus on traditional lending criteria and conservative balance sheet management has helped us avoid most aspects of the problems that have afflicted many banks in recent years, which has enabled us to maintain a strong balance sheet and continued profitability. As a result, we have been able to focus on conducting business, which has put us in a position to take advantage of the significant upheaval that customers of other banks have seen. We are particularly encouraged by the continued growth of our core loan and deposit portfolios." 

TrustCo continued to report solid growth in loans and deposits on a year-over-year basis. For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, average loans were up $112.8 million or 4.8% compared to the same period in 2010, while average deposits rose $228.8 million or 6.6% over the same period. The branch network remained at 135 during the third quarter of 2011. Mr. McCormick noted that, "We are pleased with the progress that we have made in growing loans and deposits through our recently completed branch expansion program but are mindful that fully achieving our goals will take time and continued hard work. We believe our success in growing customer relationships provides the basic building blocks that will help drive profit growth over the coming years."

Nonperforming loans were $47.0 million as of September 30, 2011, compared to $49.5 million at June 30, 2011 and $48.8 million as of December 31, 2010, and remain at what TrustCo considers to be manageable levels. Nonperforming assets declined to $53.1 million at the end of the third quarter, compared to $54.4 million at the end of the second quarter and from $56.2 million at the end of 2010. At September 30, 2011, nonperforming loans were equal to 1.89% of total loans, compared to 2.04% at the end of the second quarter. Nonperforming assets to total assets fell to 1.27% at September 30, 2011, compared to 1.34% at June 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans and as a multiple of net charge-offs remains strong. Reserves to total loans continued to improve, increasing from 1.78% at December 31, 2010 to 1.88% at June 30, 2011 and to 1.93% at September 30, 2011, and covered annualized third quarter net charge-offs by 4.1 times, compared to 3.8 times for the second quarter of 2011. The coverage ratio, or allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans  improved to 101.7% at September 30, 2011, compared to 92.0% at June 30, 2011.

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2011 was 3.38%, down from 3.47% in the second quarter of 2011 and down 4 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2010. 

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2011 was 35.9%, compared to 27.4% in the third quarter of 2010. As noted in previous disclosures, third quarter 2010 income tax expense was affected by one time items that reduced the effective tax rate and are not expected to be repeated in 2011. This benefit increased net income in both the three and nine-month periods of 2010, thus reducing the increase in net income from the 2010 periods to the 2011 periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

Tangible book value per share and tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible equity and tangible assets by excluding the balance of intangible assets from shareholders' equity and total assets, respectively. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which we calculate by dividing shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. We calculate tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end by dividing tangible equity by tangible assets at period end. We believe that this is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios. 

The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure of expense control relative to recurring revenue. We calculate the efficiency ratio by dividing total noninterest expenses as determined under GAAP, but excluding other real estate expense, net, which we refer to below as recurring expense, by net interest income (fully taxable equivalent) and total noninterest income as determined under GAAP, but excluding net gains on securities from this calculation, which we refer to below as recurring revenue. We believe that this provides one reasonable measure of core expenses relative to core revenue. 

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our financial position, results and ratios. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures of tangible common equity, tangible book value per share and efficiency ratio to the underlying GAAP numbers is set forth below.
