ASHEVILLE, N.C., May 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ASB Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ GM: ASBB), the holding company for Asheville Savings Bank, S.S.B. (the "Bank"), announced today its operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015. The Company reported net income of $622,000, or $0.16 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 compared to $404,000, or $0.09 per diluted common share, for the same quarter of 2014.
Suzanne DeFerie, President and CEO, noted, "Our latest quarterly financial results show increased net interest income over the previous four quarters with a continued improvement in our net interest margin to 3.01% compared to 2.94% in the previous quarter and 2.90% in the comparable quarter of 2014. We grew loans by $19.9 million during the first quarter and increased interest income from loans by 12.2% compared to the first quarter of 2014.

We continue our focus on building relationships with clients while we explore ways in which we can more quickly and profitably leverage our capital."

Income Statement Analysis
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $439,000, or 9.0%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Interest income on loans increased $599,000, primarily resulting from an $80.5 million increase in the average loan balances, partially offset by a 21 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans. Interest on securities decreased $168,000, attributable to a $34.0 million decrease in the average balance in mortgage-backed and other investment securities and a 9 basis point reduction in the average yield earned on the investment portfolio. Interest expense decreased $26,000, or 2.9%, to $861,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $887,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, due to a 3 basis point reduction in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by an increase of $7.0 million in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. The lower cost of interest-bearing deposits was primarily attributable to a lower average balance of certificates of deposit, as well as an average rate reduction of 2 basis points on certificates of deposit, and reductions in average rates paid on NOW and savings accounts, which were partially offset by increases in the average balances of NOW, money market and savings accounts as the Company continued its focus on core deposit growth.
DeFerie commented, "We believe an important measure of our performance is the improvement demonstrated in increasing interest income through loan growth, lowering interest expense through disciplined deposit pricing and core deposit growth, resulting in net interest margin improvement."
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $154,000, or 10.6%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Factors that contributed to the increase in noninterest income during the 2015 period included increases of $135,000 in mortgage banking income, $46,000 in income from debit card services and $21,000 in income from an investment in a Small Business Investment Company, which were partially offset by $58,000 in lower securities gains. The increase in mortgage banking income was attributable to higher volumes of residential mortgage loans originated and sold. Increased transaction volume also drove the rise in income from debit card services.
Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expenses decreased $88,000, or 1.5%, to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The lower 2015 noninterest expenses primarily reflected decreases of $84,000 in foreclosed property expenses, $71,000 in data processing expenses and $19,000 in occupancy expenses, which were partially offset by increases of $46,000 in compensation expenses and $48,000 in various other expenses. The decrease in foreclosed property expenses included a reduction of $19,000 in valuation write-downs of foreclosed properties. Increased pension plan expense was the primary factor contributing to higher compensation expenses.
Balance Sheet Review
Assets. Total assets increased $14.4 million, or 1.9%, to $774.4 million at March 31, 2015 from $760.0 million at December 31, 2014. Cash and cash equivalents increased $3.2 million, or 5.6%, to $60.1 million at March 31, 2015 from $56.9 million at December 31, 2014 in anticipation of loan growth. Investment securities decreased $12.3 million, or 8.5%, to $133.1 million at March 31, 2015 from $145.4 million at December 31, 2014, primarily due to the sale of investment securities to fund anticipated loan growth. Loans receivable, net of deferred fees, increased $19.9 million, or 3.8%, to $541.7 million at March 31, 2015 from $521.8 million at December 31, 2014 as new loan originations exceeded loan repayments, prepayments and foreclosures.
Liabilities. Total deposits increased $8.9 million, or 1.5%, to $612.3 million at March 31, 2015 from $603.4 million at December 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company continued its focus on core deposit growth, from which it excludes certificates of deposit. Core deposits increased $9.2 million, or 2.0%, to $458.5 million at March 31, 2015 from $449.3 million at December 31, 2014.
Commercial checking and money market accounts increased $5.7 million, or 4.7%, to $127.3 million at March 31, 2015 from $121.6 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting expanded sources of lower cost funding. The Company's initiatives to obtain new commercial deposit relationships in conjunction with making new commercial loans significantly contributed to this increase and reflects a commitment to establishing diversified relationships with business clients.
Over the same period, certificates of deposit decreased $272,000, or 0.2%, to $153.8 million at March 31, 2015 from $154.1 million at December 31, 2014 as the Company continued its focus on core deposit growth. Accounts payable and other liabilities increased $3.5 million, or 30.3%, to $15.1 million at March 31, 2015 from $11.6 million at December 31, 2014. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities at March 31, 2015 was primarily attributable to securities purchased in the process of settlement at the end of the first quarter.
Asset Quality
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses in the amount of $194,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to a recovery of loan losses of $(68,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Charge-offs were $252,000 for the first three months of 2015 compared to $94,000 for the first three months of 2014. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the quarter was primarily due to growth in loan volume, while the increase in charge-offs was related to two large loans charged off during the first quarter of 2015.
Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets totaled $12.4 million, or 1.61% of total assets, at March 31, 2015, compared to $11.5 million, or 1.51% of total assets, at December 31, 2014. Nonperforming assets included $3.0 million in nonperforming loans and $9.4 million in foreclosed real estate at March 31, 2015 compared to $2.7 million and $8.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2014.
Nonperforming loans increased $371,000 to $3.0 million, or 0.56% of total loans, at March 31, 2015 from $2.7 million, or 0.52% of total loans, at December 31, 2014. Of the $371,000 increase in nonperforming loans for the quarter, $337,000 related to additional nonperforming mortgage loans. Collateral on nonperforming loans in the amount of $745,000 was moved into foreclosed real estate, while performing troubled debt restructurings decreased $41,000, or 0.9%, when comparing the same periods. Total performing troubled debt restructurings and nonperforming assets increased $899,000, or 5.5%, to $17.2 million, or 2.22% of total assets, at March 31, 2015 compared to $16.3 million, or 2.15% of total assets, at December 31, 2014.
At March 31, 2015, nonperforming loans included six residential mortgage loans that totaled $1.6 million, two commercial mortgage loans that totaled $863,000, five revolving home equity loans that totaled $367,000 and four commercial and industrial loans that totaled $274,000. As of March 31, 2015, the nonperforming loans had specific reserves totaling $174,000.
Foreclosed real estate at March 31, 2015 included ten properties with a total recorded amount of $9.4 million compared to ten properties with a total recorded amount of $8.8 million at December 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, one new property in the amount of $745,000 was added to foreclosed real estate, while one property in the amount of $89,000 was sold. In addition, the Bank sold one of its 15 units in a mixed-use condominium complex for net proceeds of $89,000 during the first quarter of 2015. The Bank recorded no capital additions and no loss provisions during the first three months of 2015.
The Bank's largest foreclosed property resulted from a loan relationship that had an original purpose of constructing a mixed-use retail, commercial office, and residential condominium project located in western North Carolina. As a result of this foreclosure, the Bank acquired 44 of the 48 condominium units in the building. Following an additional write-down of approximately $630,000 on the loans secured by this collateral in the fourth quarter of 2012, the Bank recorded this foreclosed property in the amount of $9.8 million. During 2013, the Bank recorded additional write-downs totaling $1.6 million, which resulted in an adjusted recorded amount of $8.2 million at December 31, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Bank recorded an additional write-down of $133,000 on the property and sold 28 residential condominium units and one office unit. During the first quarter of 2015, the Bank sold one office unit. At March 31, 2015, the adjusted recorded amount was $4.4 million for the remaining eight retail units and six office units.
Outlook
DeFerie concluded, "We are pleased with the progress we have made to improve the Company's balance sheet. The ongoing strength of our loan portfolio, asset quality management and improvement in operating efficiencies should have an increasingly positive impact on future earnings and the Company's ability to deliver increasing value to shareholders."
