First National Bank Alaska Announces Unaudited Results for Third Quarter 2013

First National Bank Alaska’s (OTCBB:FBAK) net income for third quarter 2013 was $8.3 million or $25.70 per share. This compares to $11.1 million or $34.23 per share for the same quarter in 2012. Year-to-date income of $24.5 million compares to prior period net income of $30.7 million. Lower yield on investment securities continue to compress interest margins. Current year loan loss provisions are not benefiting from as large recoveries as in prior year periods.

The year-to-date average yield on earning assets decreased 15 basis points to 3.40% from 3.55% for the same period in 2012.

September 30, 2013, total assets grew to $3.136 billion on strong deposit growth, an increase of $196.2 million.
