CHARLESTON, W.Va., Jan. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- City Holding Company, "the Company" (NASDAQ: CHCO), a $2.8 billion bank holding company headquartered in Charleston, today announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company's earnings increased $1.7 million from the year ended December 31, 2010 to $40.7 million while loans and deposits continued to grow as evidenced by a $108 million (5.8%) increase in the Company's loan portfolio from December 31, 2010 and an $87 million (7.2%) increase in its average non-time deposits from 2010 to 2011.

The Company reported net income per diluted share for 2011 of $2.67 compared to $2.47 per diluted share 2010.  Net income for 2011 was $40.7 million compared to $39.0 million for 2010.  For 2011, the Company achieved a return on assets of 1.51%, a return on tangible equity of 15.7%, a net interest margin of 3.89%, and an efficiency ratio of 55.9%. 

For the fourth quarter of 2011 the Company reported net income of $9.7 million, or $0.65 per diluted share compared to $9.9 million, or $0.64 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2010.  For the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company achieved a return on assets of 1.43%, a return on tangible equity of 14.9%, a net interest margin of 3.90%, and an efficiency ratio of 51.2%.

City's CEO Charles Hageboeck stated that, "Although City and the financial industry in general faced many challenges during the year including a sustained low interest rate environment, an unsettled economy, and regulatory changes on how service fees are collected, City was able to improve our financial results from 2010 and continues to compare very favorably to our peers.  Our net interest income decreased only $2.2 million from 2010 despite the impact of lower interest income from our interest rate floors ($3.4 million) and lower interest income from our previously securitized loans ($0.9 million).  We were able to partially offset these losses by increasing our loan balances $108 million from December 31, 2010, along with solid growth in non-time deposits.  As a result of our loan growth, our net interest income grew in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, and our net interest margin remained relatively stable at 3.90% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to 3.92% in the fourth quarter of 2010.  While we are particularly pleased with our commercial loan growth in the fourth quarter of 2011, we expect this growth to level off during through the first quarter of 2012."

"Our asset quality remains strong with stable and relatively low levels of past due loans.  Non-performing loans were down at December 31, 2011 as compared to the prior quarter. The Company experienced elevated losses on commercial real estate loans in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to prior quarters primarily due to the charge-off associated with one particular loan, which was previously considered and reserved for in our allowance for loan losses.  Provision expense is somewhat higher, due in part, to the significant loan growth experienced in the fourth quarter."

"As anticipated, our service fee revenues declined from 2010 due to compliance with Regulation E, less consumer spending, and the implementation of "real time" authorization of all electronic transactions during the second quarter of 2010. Additionally in anticipation of further guidance from our primary regulator, the Company ceased processing check transactions in high to low order during the fourth quarter of 2011. This decrease in service charge revenues of $1.9 million, or 4.7%, from 2010 was partially offset by stronger trust and investment management fee income (12.3% increase over 2010) and insurance commissions (8.3% increase over 2010).  The Company also experienced less credit-related net investment impairment losses in 2011 ($4.8 million decline over 2010)."

"Expenses were up $2.4 million in 2011 as compared to 2010. During 2011, the Company expensed $3.0 million associated with a class action lawsuit pertaining to processing order for overdrafts associated with electronic presentments.  FDIC insurance expense decreased $1.2 million as a result of a change in FDIC assessment methodology which favored strongly core funded banks such as City. Overall, the Company remained very disciplined about managing its expenses."

"City announced in November 2011 the execution of a definitive agreement to acquire Virginia Savings Bancorp, Inc. of Front Royal, Virginia. The proposed merger is expected to close in the first half of 2012; however it is subject to all required regulatory approvals, and satisfaction of various covenants, representations, and warranties.  This transaction would expand City's presence from the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia into northwestern Virginia."

"We also announced in December 2011 an increase in our quarterly dividend to 35 cents per share.  2011 was a successful year for City in many respects and we look forward to maintaining our status as one of the most profitable and well capitalized publicly traded banks in the U.S."

Net Interest Income

The Company's tax equivalent net interest income decreased $2.2 million, or 2.3%, from $95.3 million in 2010 to $93.1 million in 2011. This decline is due to a decrease in interest income associated with the gain from the sale of interest rate floors as well as a decrease in interest income from the Company's previously securitized loans (PSLs).  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized $1.1 million of interest income compared to $4.5 million of interest income recognized in the year ended December 31, 2010 from the interest rate floors.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized $3.1 million of interest income compared to $4.0 million of interest income recognized in the year ended December 31, 2010 from the PSLs.  These decreases were partially offset by the decrease in interest expense exceeding the decline in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2011 by $1.7 million and the receipt of $0.4 million of previously deferred interest income from a trust preferred security.  The decline in interest expense is largely due to the average interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities declining from 1.41% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 1.05% for the year ended December 31, 2011 and an increase of $79 million in the average balance of loans for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.  The Company's reported net interest margin decreased from 4.06% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 3.89% for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The Company's tax equivalent net interest income decreased $0.3 million, or 1.4%, from $23.8 million during the third quarter of 2011 to $23.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2011.  This decrease is primarily attributable to the receipt during the third quarter of $0.4 million of taxable security interest income from the call of a trust preferred security that had previously deferred interest payments.  As a result of this decrease, the Company's reported net interest margin decreased from 3.93% in the third quarter of 2011 to 3.90% in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Credit Quality

The Company's ratio of non-performing assets to total loans and other real estate owned decreased from 1.60% at September 30, 2011 to 1.52% at December 31, 2011.  Past due loans increased from $10.6 million at September 30, 2011 to $13.3 million or 0.67% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2011.  At December 31, 2011, past due residential real estate loans were $5.4 million or 0.84% of residential real estate loans outstanding; past due home equity loans were $2.2 million or 0.52% of home equity loans outstanding; and past due commercial real estate loans were $3.4 million or 0.47% of commercial real estate loans outstanding.

At December 31, 2011, the Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALLL") was $19.4 million or 0.98% of total loans outstanding and 88% of non-performing loans compared to $19.8 million or 1.03% of loans outstanding and 87% of non-performing loans at September 30, 2011, and $18.2 million or 0.98% of loans outstanding and 156% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2010. 

As a result of the Company's quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the ALLL, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $2.3 million and $7.1 million of the comparable periods in 2010. During the fourth quarter of 2011 the Company's loan portfolio increased $47.3 million from the third quarter of 2011 which resulted in a $0.4 million addition to the ALLL.  The provision for loan losses recorded during 2011 reflects difficulties encountered by certain commercial borrowers of the Company during the year, the downgrade of their related credits and management's assessment of the impact of these difficulties on the ultimate collectability of the loans. In addition, the Company received life insurance proceeds as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy carried by one of the Company's commercial borrowers during the third quarter of 2011.  The Company had previously placed several loans to this customer on non-accrual status and recorded charge-offs related to these credits.  The life insurance proceeds satisfied the customer's remaining outstanding balances and also enabled the Company to recover $1.9 million of the previously recorded charge-offs.  Changes in the amount of the provision and related allowance are based on the Company's detailed systematic methodology and are directionally consistent with changes in the composition and quality of the Company's loan portfolio. The Company believes its methodology for determining the adequacy of its ALLL adequately provides for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and produces a provision and allowance for loan losses that is directionally consistent with changes in asset quality and loss experience. 

Investment Securities Gains/(Losses)

During 2011, the Company realized investment gains of $3.1 million from the sale of U.S. government agencies, mortgage backed securities and certain single issuer trust preferred securities with remaining book values of $6.0 million, $232.8 million and $66.1 million, respectively.  In addition, the Company received full repayment in 2011 on its investment in a single issuer bank trust preferred security, along with accrued interest that had previously been deferred, that the Company had previously recognized a credit-related net impairment charge of $0.6 million during 2010.  As a result of this repayment, the Company recognized an investment gain of $0.6 million in 2011. 

These gains were partially offset by $1.3 million of credit-related net investment impairment losses that were recorded by the Company in 2011, including $0.9 million in the fourth quarter.  The charges deemed to be other than temporary were related to pooled bank trust preferreds ($0.4 million credit-related net impairment losses for the full year) with remaining book value of $3.4 million at December 31, 2011 and community bank and bank holding company equity positions ($0.9 million credit-related net impairment losses in the fourth quarter and $0.9 million for the full year) with remaining book value of $3.9 million at December 31, 2011.  The credit-related net impairment charges related to the pooled bank trust preferred securities are based on the Company's quarterly reviews of its investment securities for indications of losses considered to be other than temporary.  Based on management's assessment of the securities the Company owns, the seniority position of the securities within the pools, the level of defaults and deferred payments within the pools, and a review of the financial strength of the banks within the respective pools, management concluded that credit-related impairment charges of $0.4 million on the pooled bank trust preferred securities were appropriate for the year ended December 31, 2011.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company also recognized $0.9 million of credit-related impairment charges on the Company's equity positions in First National Corporation of Strasburg, Virginia ($0.6 million) and Eagle Financial Services, Inc. of Berrysville, Virginia ($0.3 million) due to the length of time and the extent to which the market values of these securities have been below the Company's cost basis in these positions.

Non-interest Income

Exclusive of net investment securities gains and losses, non-interest income decreased $1.2 million to $52.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $53.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.  Service charges from depository accounts decreased $1.9 million, or 4.7%, to $38.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to the changes from complying with Regulation E, a general decline in consumer spending, and implementation of "real time" authorization of all electronic transactions in the second quarter of 2010.  Additionally in anticipation of further guidance from its primary regulator, the Company ceased processing check transactions in high to low order during the fourth quarter of 2011.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase in insurance commission revenues of $0.5 million, or 8.3%, from $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and an increase in trust and investment management fee income of $0.3 million to $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. 

Exclusive of other than temporary investment impairment losses and investment losses, total non-interest income decreased $0.1 million to $13.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.  A decrease in service charges from depository accounts of $0.3 million was essentially offset by an increase in trust and investment management fee income of $0.2 million.

Non-interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses increased $2.4 million from $78.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $81.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to increased legal and professional fees ($3.2 million) and salaries and employee benefits ($2.5 million).  Based on the Company's routine review of facts and circumstances related to pending litigation, the Company recorded a $3.0 million litigation reserve accrual during the second quarter of 2011.  These increases were partially offset by declines in advertising expense, repossessed asset losses, and FDIC insurance expense.  Advertising expenses declined $1.7 million as the Company increased its communications with its customer base in 2010 regarding the passage of Regulation E, while repossessed asset losses decreased $1.2 million due to the write down of a foreclosed property located in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia in 2010.  In addition, FDIC insurance expense decreased $1.2 million due to a change in the assessment base methodology.

Total non-interest expenses increased $0.3 million, from $18.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 to $18.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2011.  Salaries and employee benefit expense increased $1.4 million, primarily associated with increases in accruals for incentive compensation.  In addition, other expenses increased $0.5 million from the fourth quarter of 2010.  These increases were partially offset by decreases in FDIC insurance expense ($0.7 million), advertising expense ($0.5 million), and repossessed asset losses ($0.2 million).

Balance Sheet Trends

Loans have increased $108 million (5.8%), from December 31, 2010, to $1.97 billion at December 31, 2011, due to increases in commercial real estate loans of $70.4 million (11%), residential real estate loans of $28.2 million (5%), and home equity loans of $16.8 million (4%).

Total average depository balances decreased $12.3 million, or 0.6%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2011 to the quarter ended December 31, 2011.  This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in time deposits ($26.9 million) that was partially offset by increases in savings deposits ($6.1 million), interest-bearing demand deposits ($4.7 million) and noninterest-bearing deposits ($3.7 million). As compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2010, total non-time deposit average balances have increased $103.4 million, or 8.5%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2011.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's effective income tax rate for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011 was 33.2% and 33.6%, respectively, compared to 29.8% and 32.1% for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010, respectively.

Capitalization and Liquidity

One of the Company's strengths is that it is highly profitable while maintaining strong liquidity and capital.  With respect to liquidity, the Company's loan to deposit ratio was 88.8% and the loan to asset ratio was 71.0% at December 31, 2011.  The Company maintained investment securities totaling 14.3% of assets as of this date.  Further, the Company's deposit mix is weighted heavily toward checking and saving accounts that fund 48.1% of assets at December 31, 2011.  Time deposits fund 31.9% of assets at December 31, 2011, but very few of these deposits are in accounts that have balances of more than $250,000, reflecting the core retail orientation of the Company.

The Company is also strongly capitalized. The Company's tangible equity ratio was 9.4% at December 31, 2011 compared to 10.0% at December 31, 2010.  At December 31, 2011, City National Bank's Leverage Ratio is 9.32%, its Tier I Capital ratio is 12.03%, and its Total Risk-Based Capital ratio is 12.99%.  These regulatory capital ratios are significantly above levels required to be considered "well capitalized," which is the highest possible regulatory designation. 

On December 14, 2011, the Board approved a quarterly cash dividend of 35 cents per share payable January 31, 2012, to shareholders of record as of January 13, 2012.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company repurchased 755,501 common shares at a weighted average price of $31.49.  On July 27, 2011, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized the Company to buy back up to 1,000,000 shares of its common shares (approximately 7% of outstanding shares) in open market transactions at prices that are accretive to the earnings per share of continuing shareholders.  No time limit was placed on the duration of the share repurchase program.  As part of this authorization, the Company rescinded the previous share repurchase program plan approved in October 2009.  At December 31, 2011, the Company could repurchase approximately 692,000 shares under the current plan.

City Holding Company is the parent company of City National Bank of West Virginia.  City National operates 68 branches across West Virginia, Eastern Kentucky and Southern Ohio.

On November 14, 2011, the Company announced that it had executed a definitive agreement to acquire Virginia Savings Bancorp, Inc. of Front Royal, Virginia and its principal banking subsidiary, Virginia Savings Bank.  The proposed merger is expected to close in the first half of 2012; however it is subject to all required regulatory approvals, and satisfaction of various covenants, representations, and warranties.  This transaction would expand City's presence from the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia into northwestern Virginia.
