ANN ARBOR, Mich. and NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pelican Financial, Inc. (AMEX:PFI), the holding company for Pelican National Bank, posted a net loss for the second quarter and first half of 2005, Charles C. Huffman, Chairman and CEO, reported today. Pelican National Bank, headquartered in Naples, Fla., is a full-service community bank serving the consumer and commercial segments from six branch offices in Naples, Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and San Carlos, Florida. Operating Results The Corporation posted a net loss of $218,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2005, compared with a net loss of $71,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2004. For the first half of 2005, the net loss was $544,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared with a year-earlier net loss of $232,000, or $0.05 per share. Net interest income was off for both periods, chiefly reflecting modest loan growth and increased cost of funds, with the latter partially attributable to the planned withdrawal of approximately $50 million in noninterest-bearing deposits by former sister company Washtenaw Mortgage Company, last year. Noninterest income was up in both reporting periods, most notably from higher bank service charges and fees. This positive trend reflects growth in customers and the successful expansion of the branch network. The balance sheet saw continued growth. Compared with December 31, 2004, total assets rose 3% to $204,772,000; loans outstanding, net of allowance, grew 2% to $113,567,000; and deposits rose 7% to $150,146,000. Mr. Huffman said, "We are building our business and franchise by recruiting new customers, increasing core deposits, and ramping-up commercial lending. However, higher operating costs, increased cost of funds, and razor- thin margins are hampering profitability. We are also still experiencing loan refinancing run-off, which tends to camouflage our true loan growth. We remain optimistic about the markets that we are in and about our future in those markets."
