KS Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCBB: KSBI), parent company of KS Bank, Inc., today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009. In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors voted to suspend payment of the Company’s quarterly cash dividend.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 was $100,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to earnings of $374,000, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008. Comparing the first quarter of 2008 to the first quarter 2009, the reduction in earning is primarily reflective of an increase of $430,000 to the allowance for loan losses during the first quarter of 2009 compared to $35,000 in 2008.

Total noninterest income increased by $144,000 for the first quarter 2009 to $602,000 compared to $458,000 for the same period in 2008. This increase is a result of $104,000 in gains on sales of investments and an increase in fees from presold mortgages. The Company’s noninterest expense remained relativity flat at $2.4 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008.

The Company’s consolidated total assets decreased $1.6 million to $323.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to $324.8 million at December 31, 2008. This decrease in the Company’s total assets resulted primarily from the decrease of $1.7 million in net loans to $242.7 million at March 31, 2009 compared to $244.3 at December 31, 2008. Total deposits were $240.8 million at March 31, 2009 compared to $242.4 million at December 31, 2008

Nonperforming assets, which includes nonaccrual loans, and other real estate owned totaled $8.6 million at March 31, 2009, versus $8.5 million at December 31, 2008. As it was in the fourth quarter of 2008, nonperforming loans and charge-offs are primarily related to our residential construction and development portfolio, which has been and continues to be negatively affected by the slowing housing market.

Commenting on the first quarter 2009 results, Harold Keen, President and CEO, stated, “The current recession and economic pressures on the housing and real estate market continues to impact property values and credit quality; as a result, we continue to adjust our provision for loan losses accordingly. Our staff is proactively monitoring delinquencies and we continue to work with customers to effectively resolve problem credits and provide relief until market conditions improve.”

“While disappointing, the suspension of our quarterly dividend is a prudent step in preserving capital during this continuing economic downturn. While no assurances can be given regarding the resumption of dividend payments, the Board of Directors will continue to monitor business conditions, the Company’s profitability and capital levels, as well as, asset quality in considering whether to resume cash dividend payments. KS Bank continues to be well-capitalized according to regulatory guidelines and we continue to be focused on our core business.”

“In addition, we are pleased to announce that this month marks our 85th year of service to our customers. During this timeframe, the Bank has grown from a one branch Savings and Loan to full service community bank with nine branches. We are looking forward to continuing our service to the communities in which we are located.”
