LCNB Corp. ("LCNB") (NASDAQ: LCNB) today announced net income of
$5,193,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.40)
and $14,845,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per share of
$1.24) for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018,
respectively. This compares to net income of $3,617,000 (total
basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.37 and $0.36,
respectively) and $12,972,000 (total basic and diluted earnings per
share of $1.30 and $1.29, respectively) for the same three and
twelve month periods in 2017. Items significantly affecting net
income during the 2018 period were:
- a merger with Columbus First Bancorp,
Inc. ("Columbus First") on May 31, 2018,
- expenses relating to the merger with
Columbus First, which totaled $164,000 and $2,123,000 for the three
and twelve month periods, respectively,
- a net loss of $461,000 on the sale of
fixed assets primarily due to the sale of two buildings, and
- a reduction in LCNB's federal tax rate
from 34% to 21% as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was
signed into law on December 22, 2017.
Commenting on the financial results, LCNB Chief Executive
Officer Steve Foster said, "We are pleased to report our financial
results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018.
Net income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018
was greater than the comparable periods in 2017, despite
merger-related expenses recognized for the acquisition of Columbus
First. The merger with Columbus First, combined with organic
growth, had a positive effect on net interest income, which was
$7.3 million greater in 2018 than in 2017. Return on average assets
equaled 1.27% and 1.00% for the three and twelve month periods in
2018. Eliminating merger-related expenses from the income statement
produces pro-forma net income of $5,341,000 and $16,598,000 for the
three and twelve month periods in 2018, respectively. Pro-forma
return on average asset ratios for the three and twelve month
periods were 1.30% and 1.11%, respectively."
Net interest income for the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2018 was, respectively, $2,853,000 and $7,305,000
greater than the comparable periods in 2017, primarily due to
growth in LCNB's average loan portfolio, partially offset by a
decrease in average investment securities and increases in average
deposits and long-term borrowings. Also offsetting the growth in
the loan portfolio was a market-driven increase in average rates
paid on deposits. Loans, deposits, and long-term borrowings
obtained through the merger with Columbus First were a significant
component of LCNB's loan portfolio growth and the increases in
deposits and long-term borrowings.
The provision for loan losses for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2018 was $708,000 greater than the comparable period
in 2017. Non-accrual loans and loans past due 90 days or more and
still accruing interest increased $140,000, from $2,965,000 or
0.35% of total loans at December 31, 2017 to $3,105,000 or 0.26% of
total loans at December 31, 2018.
Non-interest income for the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2018 was, respectively, $123,000 and $592,000 greater
than the comparable periods in 2017 primarily due to increases in
fiduciary income and service charges and fees on deposit accounts,
partially offset by a decrease in net gains (losses) from sales of
securities.
Non-interest expense for the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2018 was, respectively, $1,313,000 and $6,639,000
greater than the comparable periods in 2017 primarily due to
increases in salaries and employee benefits and merger-related
expenses. Also contributing to the increase during the twelve month
period were losses incurred from the sale of two of LCNB's office
buildings. Merger-related expenses increased due to costs connected
to the acquisition of Columbus First.
The merger with Columbus First was accounted for using the
acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired,
liabilities assumed, and consideration paid were recorded at their
estimated fair values as of the merger date. Any changes in the
estimated fair values based on new information about facts that
existed at the merger date will be recognized in the period the
adjustment is identified.
