Coast Financial (NASDAQ:CFHI)
Historical Stock Chart
From May 2019 to May 2024
BRADENTON, Fla., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Coast Financial Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CFHI), parent company of Coast Bank of Florida today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2007.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 the company recorded a loss of $14.2 million, or $2.18 per share, as compared to a loss of $1.5 million, or $0.22 per share, reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the company has recorded a loss of $35.3 million, or $5.43 per share.
According to Coast Bank Acting President and Chief Executive Officer, Anne V. Lee, the losses posted in the quarter are reflective of the many critical issues facing the bank at this time. "As a result of the worsening downturn in the investor real estate market, where Coast Bank has significant exposure, non-performing assets continue to rise, severely depressing earnings." Lee continued, "These increases in non-performing assets necessitate additional increases in the Provision for Loan Losses, further increasing the quarterly loss."
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, Coast Bank increased the provision for loan losses by $9.5 million.
Lee continued, "These factors, coupled with the constraints and significant expense of operating under a regulatory Cease and Desist order; the legal and professional fees associated with protecting the bank's interest in properties associated with affected loans; the costs related to the prospective future acquisition and the challenges of the current interest rate environment create a scenario where it is increasingly difficult for Coast Bank to realize a near-term profit."
Income Statement Review
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 net interest income before the provision for loan loss decreased 60.46% to $1.7 million, as compared to $4.3 million reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Revenues (net interest income before the provision for loan losses plus other operating income) decreased 57.14% to $2.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from the $4.9 million reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Among the factors contributing to the reduction in income is the continuing increase in non-performing assets, primarily in the construction-to-permanent real estate portfolio, including affected loans and similar loans, where the financing by the borrowers was primarily for investment purposes.
Net interest margin compressed in the quarter. For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 net interest margin was 0.98%, as compared to the 2.85% net interest margin reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Non-interest expenses decreased in the quarter. For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 non-interest expenses totaled $6.8 million; a decrease of less than one percent when compared to the $6.9 million reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Balance Sheet Review
Deposits increased 4.6%, or $27.7 million to $632.3 million, from $604.6 million reported at December 31, 2006. At September 30, 2007, non-interest bearing demand deposits, savings, NOW and money-market deposits totaled $97.7 million, a decrease of 41.9% when compared to the $168.2 million outstanding at December 31, 2006. During the reporting period, time deposits increased $98.2 million, or 22.5%, to $534.6 million from the $436.4 million outstanding at December 31, 2006.
Total loans decreased for the reporting period. As of September 30, 2007 net loans totaled $530.1 million, representing a decrease of $32.5 million, or 5.8%, compared to $562.6 million at December 31, 2006.
Total assets also decreased. As of September 30, 2007 assets totaled $664.5 million. This total is a decrease of $55.2 million, or 7.7%, compared to $719.7 million at December 31, 2006.
Total Shareholder Equity stood at $22.3 million as of September 30, 2007, a decrease of $34.9 million compared to $57.2 million reported at December 31, 2006.
Credit Quality Review
Non-performing assets increased during the past three months. Lee stated, "The bank continues to experience increases in non-performing assets related to the affected loans resulting from the CCI bankruptcy, as well as other construction-to-permanent loans initiated by individuals for investment purposes." As of September 30, 2007 non-performing assets totaled $77.8 million, an increase of $76.8 million compared to $1.0 million reported at December 31, 2006.
Impact of Non-Performing Assets on Proposed Purchase Price
Under the terms of the agreement with First Banks, CFHI shareholders can receive up to $3.40 in cash for their shares upon closing of the transaction. The per-share price may be adjusted if, on the Determination Date each of the following conditions exist:
-- the Company's allowance for loan and lease losses plus its tangible
equity is less than 75% of the Company's non-performing loans and
leases plus other real estate owned (the Deficiency), and
-- The Deficiency is greater than $1 million.
If each of the above conditions exists, then the aggregate cash consideration to be paid by First Banks will be reduced to the nearest $500,000 increment, rounded upward or downward, to the full amount of the Deficiency and the price per common share will be reduced accordingly. If the deficiency exceeds $10 million, then CFHI or First Banks, respectively, will have the right to terminate the merger agreement. Based on this formula and depending on the amount of the deficiency, the price paid per share could be reduced to $1.86 prior to triggering such termination rights. As of September 30, 2007, the deficiency was approximately $1,286,000 which would result in a payment of approximately $3.17 per share. In view of the current and anticipated performance of CFHI, it is likely that the deficiency will continue to increase in size and the amount paid per share will be further reduced.
