CHARLESTON, W.Va., July 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- City Holding Company, "the Company" (NASDAQ:CHCO), a $2.5 billion bank holding company headquartered in Charleston, today announced net income for the second quarter of $13.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.77 compared to $12.3 million, or $0.71 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2005, an 8.5% increase. For the second quarter of 2006, the Company achieved a return on assets of 2.17%, a return on equity of 18.8%, a net interest margin of 4.58%, and an efficiency ratio of 44.1%. Key components of the increase in net income were increases in net interest income of $2.3 million and non-interest income (principally service charge revenue) of $1.4 million. These increases were partially offset by the provision for loan losses of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2006, as compared to no provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2005 and increased non-interest expenses of $0.8 million (principally salaries and benefits). The Company completed the acquisition of Classic Bancshares, Inc. on May 20, 2005. Charles Hageboeck, Chief Executive Officer and President, stated, "I am very pleased with City's continuing success during the second quarter of 2006. The Company achieved a significant increase in its earnings per share despite the impact of the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2006 (as compared to no such provision in the second quarter of 2005) and a decrease of over $300,000 in interest income associated with previously securitized loans (whose balances decreased 45%). As compared to the prior year ended June 30, 2005, our net interest margin was higher, efficiency ratio better, and profitability as measured by our return on assets was higher. Loans and deposits both grew meaningfully in an economic environment that has been somewhat challenging for banks. Asset quality, as measured by non-performing assets, remained stable and at very desirable levels as compared to many of our peers and our level of net charge-offs was well within acceptable limits. The bank is extremely well capitalized and highly liquid. In summary, the Company is performing well against all measures. The Company used some of its profits to repurchase approximately 271,000 shares of common stock during the second quarter. Based on our continued success in the second quarter of 2006, we believe that the Company remains well positioned to maintain our solid performance on behalf of our shareholders throughout the remainder of the year." For the six months ended June 30, 2006, City's net income grew 10.8% to $26.6 million compared to $24.0 million in the first half of 2005. Diluted earnings per share grew 6.4% to $1.49 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $1.40 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Net Interest Income The Company's tax equivalent net interest income increased $2.3 million, or 9.7%, from $23.9 million during the second quarter of 2005 to $26.2 million during the second quarter of 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to a widening of the Company's net interest margin from increasing rates, which increased net interest income by $2.1 million from the second quarter of 2005. The increase was due primarily to an increase of 89 basis points in the Company's traditional loan portfolio (residential real estate, home equity, commercial, and installment loans). As a result, interest income from the Company's traditional loan portfolio increased $3.7 million from the second quarter of 2005. Also contributing to increased interest income was growth in the Company's traditional loan portfolio due to internal growth and the acquisition of Classic Bancshares, Inc. during the second quarter of 2005. As a result of this growth of $185 million, or 12.89%, in the average balances of traditional loan products, interest income from these loans increased $2.7 million. These increases were partially offset by increased interest expense associated with higher rates paid on deposits and increased balances of deposits. Interest expense increased $2.7 million due to a 75 basis point increase in the rate paid on interest bearing deposits from the second quarter of 2005. Meanwhile, increased average balances of deposits of $190 million, or 13.2%, from the second quarter of 2005 was due to internal growth and the acquisition of Classic during the second quarter of 2005. Growth in average balances of deposits increased interest expense by $1.2 million. Interest income from previously securitized loans decreased $0.3 million from the second quarter of 2005. This decrease was related to a decrease in the average balance of the loans from $45.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, to $24.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. However, this reduction was partially mitigated as the yield on these loans rose from 25.0% from the second quarter of 2005 to 41.9% for the second quarter of 2006 (see Previously Securitized Loans section for further discussion). Credit Quality At June 30, 2006, the Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALLL") was $16.6 million or 1.00% of total loans outstanding and 445% of non-performing loans compared to $18.3 million or 1.14% of loans outstanding and 464% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2005, and $16.8 million or 1.04% of loans outstanding and 402% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2005. As a result of the Company's quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the ALLL, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2006 and no provision in the second quarter of 2005. The provision for loan losses also decreased slightly from $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2006 primarily due to recent improvements within the Company's home equity and consumer portfolios. Changes in the amount of the provision and related allowance are based upon City's detailed methodology and are directionally consistent with changes in quality of the Company's loan portfolio. The Company had net charge-offs of $0.9 million for the second quarter of 2006, with depository accounts representing $0.6 million of this total. While charge-offs on depository accounts are appropriately taken against the ALLL, the revenue associated with depository accounts is reflected in service charges and has been steadily growing as the core base of checking accounts has grown. Net charge-offs on real estate loans and installment loans were $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, while commercial loans experienced no net charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Due to a number of strategic initiatives to strengthen the loan portfolio implemented by management in recent years, including tightening credit standards, changing the overall mix of the portfolio to include a higher proportion of real estate secured loans, and identifying and charging off or resolving problem loans, the quality of the Company's loan portfolio remains solid. At June 30, 2006, non-performing assets as a percentage of loans and other real estate owned were 0.25%. Average non-performing assets as a percentage of loans and other real estate owned for the Company's peer group (bank holding companies with total assets between $1 and $5 billion) for the most recently reported quarter ended March 31, 2006, were 0.71%. Another contributing factor that has enabled the Company to maintain its allowance at lower levels than peers is the composition of the Company's loan portfolio, which is weighted more heavily toward residential mortgage loans and less toward non-real estate secured commercial loans than its peers. As a result, the Company's ALLL as a percentage of loans outstanding is 1.00% at June 30, 2006, compared to the average of the Company's peer group of 1.20% for the most recently reported quarter. The Company believes its methodology for determining the adequacy of its ALLL adequately provides for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and produces a provision for loan losses that is directionally consistent with changes in asset quality and loss experience. Non-interest Income Net of investment securities gains, non-interest income increased $1.4 million, or 11.4%, to $13.5 million in the second quarter of 2006 as compared to $12.1 million in the second quarter of 2005. The largest source of non-interest income is service charges from depository accounts, which increased $1.2 million, or 12.6%, from $9.7 million during the second quarter of 2005 to $10.9 million during the second quarter of 2006. This increase is due to an increase in the utilization of services by the Company's expanding customer base. On a year-to-date basis, non-interest income increased $2.3 million, or 9.8%, exclusive of security gains primarily due to increases in service charges. Non-interest Expenses Non-interest expenses increased $0.8 million from $16.8 million in the second quarter of 2005 to $17.6 million in the second quarter of 2006. The increase in non-interest expenses for the quarter and year to date was primarily attributable to increased compensation expenses and other miscellaneous non-interest expenses related to the Company's acquisition of Classic Bancshares, Inc. during the second quarter of 2005. The Company's efficiency ratio improved from 46.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 to 44.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, reflecting ongoing strength in managing expenses while increasing revenues. The average efficiency ratio for the Company's peer group for the most recently reported quarter ended March 31, 2006, was 61.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the efficiency ratio improved to 44.69% from 47.12% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Balance Sheet Trends As compared to December 31, 2005, loans have increased $46.1 million at June 30, 2006. The primary reasons for this growth are increases in targeted areas of commercial loans of $38.9 million, home equity loans of $11.6 million and residential real estate loans of $8.6 million. These increases were partially offset by decreases in previously securitized loans of $8.0 million (see discussion below) and installment loans of $5.0 million. The Company was successful in increasing residential real estate loans and home equity loans despite continued difficulties imposed by the flat yield curve that has resulted in borrowers refinancing into fixed rate mortgages. Total average depository balances increased $63.0 million, or 13.3% on an annualized basis, from the quarter ended December 31, 2005 to the quarter ended June 30, 2006. This growth was primarily in time deposits, which have increased $56.1 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2005. Previously Securitized Loans Between 1997 and 1999, the Company originated and securitized $760 million in 125% loan to value junior-lien underlying mortgages in six separate pools. The Company had a retained interest in the residual cash flows associated with these underlying mortgages after satisfying priority claims. Principal amounts owed to investors in the securitizations were evidenced by notes that were subject to redemption under certain circumstances. When the notes were redeemed during 2003 and 2004, the Company became the beneficial owner of the mortgage loans and recorded the loans as "Previously Securitized Loans" within the loan portfolio. At June 30, 2006, the Company reported "Previously Securitized Loans" of $22.3 million compared to $41.7 million and $30.3 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005, respectively, representing a decrease of 46.6% and 26.5%, respectively. Because the carrying value of the previously securitized loans incorporates discounts for expected prepayment and default rates, the carrying value of the loans is generally less than the contractual outstanding balance of the loans. As of June 30, 2006, the contractual outstanding balances of the mortgages securitized were $40.0 million while the carrying value of these assets was $22.3 million. The difference between the carrying value and the contractual outstanding balance of previously securitized loans is accreted into interest income over the life of the loans. An impairment charge on previously securitized loans would be provided through the Company's provision and allowance for loan losses if the discounted present value of estimated future cash flows declines below the recorded value of previously securitized loans. The Company estimates the net carrying value of previously securitized loan balances and related interest income to decrease as shown below: 12/31 Balance Annualized Interest Effective (in millions)* Income (in Annualized Yield* millions)* 2005 $ 30.3 $ 11.4 27 % 2006 18.4 9.5 42 % 2007 13.7 6.8 42 % 2008 10.4 5.1 42 % 2009 7.9 3.9 42 % * - 2005 amounts are based on actual results. 2006 amounts are based on actual results through 6/30/06 and estimated amounts for the remainder of the year. 2007, 2008 and 2009 amounts are based on estimated amounts. Note: The amounts reflected in the table above require management to make significant assumptions based on estimated future default, prepayment, and discount rates. Actual performance could be different from that assumed, which could result in the actual results being materially different from the amounts estimated above. The yield on the previously securitized loans was 41.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to 39.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, and 25.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The yield on the previously securitized loans has increased due to improved cash flows from net default rates being less than previously estimated. The lower net default rates resulted from the Company's assumption of the servicing of all of the pool balances during the second quarter of 2005. This favorably impacted the yield realized on the previously securitized loans by eliminating the servicing fees previously being paid to the external servicing agent and increased internal collection efforts that have resulted in enhanced levels of recoveries on previously charged-off loans. Subsequent to our assumption of the servicing of these loans, the Company has averaged net recoveries of approximately $485,000 per month. The Company does not believe that continued net recoveries at this rate can be sustained indefinitely. As a result of these net recoveries which are accreted into income over the remaining expected life of the loans, together with the improvements associated with lower servicing costs, the Company now projects that the yield on these loans will be in the range of 41-43%. Capitalization and Liquidity One of the Company's strengths is that it is highly profitable while maintaining strong liquidity and capital. With respect to liquidity, the Company's loan to deposit ratio was 84.1% and the loan to asset ratio was 65.8% at June 30, 2006. The Company maintained investment securities totaling 22.5% of assets as of this date. Further, the Company's deposit mix is weighted heavily toward checking and saving accounts that fund 43.3% of assets at June 30, 2006. Time deposits fund 34.9% of assets at June 30, 2006, but very few of these deposits are in accounts that have balances of more than $150,000, reflecting the core retail orientation of the Company. The Company is also strongly capitalized. Capitalization (as measured by average equity to average assets) was 11.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 as a result of the Company's strong earnings. With respect to regulatory capital, at June 30, 2006, the Company's Leverage Ratio is 10.34%, the Tier I Capital ratio is 14.58%, and the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio is 15.53%. These regulatory capital ratios are significantly above levels required to be considered "well capitalized," which is the highest possible regulatory designation. The Company's tangible equity ratio was 9.1% at June 30, 2006 compared with a tangible equity ratio of 8.9% at June 30, 2005. During the second quarter of 2006, the Company repurchased 271,481 common shares at a weighted average price of $35.72 as part of a 1 million share repurchase plan authorized by the Board of Directors in June 2005. Between December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2006, the Company repurchased a total of 572,053 shares representing 3.2% of total shares outstanding. Due to the Company's strong earnings, the Company was able to both repurchase these shares and increase its tangible equity ratio. As a result of repurchases completed in the second quarter of 2006, the Company's average outstanding shares decreased 109,000 shares during the quarter, providing the Company's shareholders increased earnings capacity as shares repurchased improve earnings per share on the remaining shares outstanding. The Company has 222,847 shares remaining under the plan approved by the Board of Directors in June 2005. City Holding Company is the parent company of City National Bank of West Virginia. City National operates 67 branches across West Virginia, Eastern Kentucky and Southern Ohio.
