Pelican Financial, Inc. Reports Q2 Net Loss Sixth Branch Opened ANN ARBOR, Mich. and NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 4 /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 2004, 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, Fort Myers Beach, and San Carlos. Pelican Financial, Inc. has completed its previously announced spin-off of Washtenaw Mortgage Company into a separate, publicly held corporation, The Washtenaw Group, Inc., trading under the symbol TWH. The spin-off was effective at the close of business December 31, 2003. Operating Results The Corporation posted a net loss of $71,000, or $0.02 per share, for the second quarter, comparable to the year-earlier net loss of $153,000, from continuing operations, or $0.03 per share. For the first half, the net loss was $232,000, or $0.05 per share, versus net income of $115,000, from continuing operations, or $0.02 per share, for the first half of 2003. Net interest income and noninterest income were off in both reporting periods. In the main, the reductions resulted from margin compression from the low interest-rate environment, lower bank service charges and fees, reduced gains from loan sales, and higher expenses from branch-expansion activities. A sixth branch was opened last month in Cape Coral. The balance sheet saw improvement. Compared with December 30, 2003, total assets rose 17% to $258,780,000; loans outstanding, net of loan-loss allowance, of $105,180,000 were off 4%, due to loan-refinancing run-off; and deposits jumped 20% to $230,518,000. Mr. Huffman said, "Our team is doing a good job, despite the lukewarm operating results. We are building name recognition and franchise value. We are earning business and marketshare and building core deposits. We are adding quality loans and generating substantial loan production. Unfortunately, much of the new-loan generation has been offset by loan refinancing run-off. We have successfully opened three new branches in the past year and half and we just opened our sixth branch office. We are optimistic about the markets that we are in and about our future in those markets. "We are excited about PNB's new president, Howard B. Montgomery, who joined us earlier this week. Mr. Montgomery has two decades of banking experience and is a former member of the Federal Reserve Bank's 5th District Operations Advisory Committee." Mr. Montgomery replaces Michael N. Clemens who retires September 30, 2004. Safe Harbor.
