KOSCIUSKO, Miss., Jan. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- First M&F Corp. (NASDAQ:FMFC) today reported 2011 net income of $4.373 million as compared to a net income of $4.011 million for 2010, a nine percent increase.  Earnings allocated to common shareholders were $2.584 million, or $0.28 basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to earnings of $15.071 million, or $1.66 basic and diluted earnings per share for 2010.  Earnings attributable to common shareholders for 2010 includes a $12.867 million gain on exchange of preferred stock recorded in the third quarter of 2010.  Excluding the gain on exchange, 2010 common earnings were $2.301 million, or $.25 basic and diluted earnings per share. 

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was $.530 million allocated to common shareholders, or $.05 basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to $.267 million, or $.03 basic and diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2010.

For the fourth quarter of 2011 the annualized return on assets was 0.25%, while return on common equity was 2.27%. Comparatively, the return on assets for the fourth quarter of 2010 was 0.16%, with a return on common equity of 1.16%. The return on assets for 2011 was 0.27%, while the return on common equity was 2.81%.

"Our credit trends continue to improve, bolstered by eight quarters of post-recession earnings," said Hugh S. Potts, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  "Our nonaccrual loans to total loans improved in 2011 to 1.68% from 3.11% in 2010.  While our net income overall was up nine percent, cash earnings applicable to common stock, excluding the 2010 gain on exchange of preferred stock, were up thirteen percent year over year," continued Mr. Potts. 

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter was up slightly compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, with the net interest margin increasing to 3.64% in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to 3.57% in the fourth quarter of 2010. The significant contributor to the increase in net interest income continues to be the improvement in net interest spreads stemming from lower deposit costs. The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2011 was 3.72% as compared to 3.75% for the second quarter of 2011 and 3.59% for the first quarter of 2011 as the cost of funds trended downward all year. Loan yields decreased to 5.74% in the fourth quarter of 2011 from 5.89% in the fourth quarter of 2010. Loan yields fell slightly from the third quarter of 2011 to the fourth quarter. Average total loans were $1.014 billion for the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to $1.035 billion for the third quarter of 2011 and $1.048 million during the fourth quarter of 2010. Loans held for investment fell by $18.626 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and by $29.629 million in the third quarter as loan demand continued to be weak.  Deposit costs fell in the fourth quarter of 2011 from the third quarter of 2011 and from the fourth quarter of 2010, as deposits were re-priced downward throughout 2011 in the current stable low-rate environment, continuing a trend beginning in the fourth quarter of 2007.  Deposit costs were 1.01% in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to 1.49% in the fourth quarter of 2010. Deposits fell by $12.396 million during the fourth quarter of 2011. Management continues to emphasize and focus on core deposit growth by developing and promoting relationship-driven deposit gathering while de-emphasizing non-core deposit funding. Loans held for investment as a percentage of assets were 63.55% at December 31, 2011 as compared to 66.10% at December 31, 2010 and 63.96% at September 30, 2011.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income, excluding securities transactions and other-than-temporary impairment on securities, for the fourth quarter of 2011 was up by 20.96% compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, with deposit-related income up by 3.73% and mortgage income up 40.77% on higher volumes.  Other income was bolstered by a net gain on the sale of branch properties closed under Project McKinley, a cost savings and efficiency initiative in the fourth quarter.  Insurance agency commissions fell by 7.64% in a soft insurance market.  

Non-interest income, excluding securities transactions and other-than-temporary impairment on securities, was up 4.11% for 2011 versus 2010.  Over half of non-interest income is from deposit sources, which was virtually flat year over year. Deposit revenues continue to be supported by debit card fee income, which increased by 17.86% in 2011 over 2010, and overdraft fee income, which, however, decreased by 5.61% for the year. Commission revenues from traditional insurance products were down 4.54% year over year.

Non-interest income includes non-cash other-than-temporary impairment charges of $.631 million in 2011 on pooled trust preferred securities held in the investment portfolio.  These charges reflect credit losses expected due to deferrals and defaults by issuing institutions and cash flow analyses.

Non-interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses were up by 3.07% in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.  Salaries and benefits for the quarter were up slightly compared to the year-ago quarter due to severance costs related to Project McKinley.  Most of the increase in other expenses was due to volume-related mortgage expenses.

Non-interest expenses increased by 7.05% for 2011 as compared to 2010.  Most of the increase was due to higher foreclosed property expenses in 2011 as non-performing assets shifted more from non-accrual loans to Other Real Estate.  The number of full-time equivalent employees at the end of 2011 was 460 as compared to 496 at the end of the third quarter of 2011 and 499 at the end of 2010.

Credit Quality

Annualized net loan charge-offs as a percent of average loans for the fourth quarter of 2011 were 1.37% as compared to 2.41% for the same period in 2010. Non-accrual and 90-day past due loans as a percent of total loans were 1.74% at the end of 2011 as compared to 3.20% at the end of 2010. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans for 2011 were 1.05% as compared to 1.65% for 2010. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.50% at December 31, 2011 as compared to 1.51% at December 31, 2010. The provision for loan losses increased slightly in 2011 from $9.220 million in 2010 to $9.720 million in 2011. 

Mr. Potts commented, "Credit metrics improved across the board during 2011 and the fourth quarter as non-performing assets shifted from non-accrual to Other Real Estate.  The rate of increase in new credit issues has dropped dramatically as old issues are resolved."

Balance Sheet

Total assets fell by 2.26% in 2011, to $1.568 billion from $1.604 billion.  Total equity grew to $111.041 million, a 3.71% increase from 2010. Total loans held for investment were $.996 billion compared to $1.060 billion at the end of 2010. Deposits were $1.371 billion compared to $1.375 billion at the end of 2010.  Book value per common share increased to $10.21 per share at the end of 2011, a 2.51% increase from 2010. "While loan demand has been tepid at best and loan volumes have fallen, newer channels of growth are beginning to gain traction," said Mr. Potts.  Mr. Potts continued, "Present demands are such that an aggressive growth strategy looks more likely in 2013 and 2014, although we do expect some growth this year."

Growth and Branch Rationalization

In the first quarter of 2010 the Company closed two branches in Shelby County, Tennessee and one branch in Shelby County, Alabama.  Under Project McKinley, the Company closed five branches, two in metro-Jackson, MS, one in Oxford MS, one in Tupelo, MS and one in its Shelby County, Alabama market in the fourth quarter of 2011. These closures were designed to improve the Company's efficiencies and cost structure without exiting any markets. 

Conclusion

"We are convinced," stated Mr. Potts, "that we are on the right track.  We have addressed organizational structure, overhead, net interest margin, credit concentrations, classified and non-performing assets while still remaining profitable.  We expect 2012 to reflect a continuation of these trends while the Company strives to accelerate progress."
