Terme Bancorp Reports $10.5 Million in Net Income During First Quarter of 2014

SUMMIT, IL / ACCESSWIRE / June 2, 2014 / Terme Bancorp (OTC:TMEB), a holding company specializing in money services and consumer behavior initiatives, today announced the filing of its Quarterly Report for Q1 2014.

During the first quarter, Terme Bancorp reported $10.5 million in Net Income generated from the  purchase of financial services provider, SMC Financial Holdings, Inc. The quarterly report's financial footnotes explain how Terme realized this income through the forgiveness of debt owed to the seller of the company.

All mortgage banking and title company assets acquired in the transactions have been sold or eliminated while elected electronic assets, databases, and personnel have been assimilated into the operations of Terme Mortgage, Inc.

"As a result of Terme's acquisition of SMC Financial, we were able to report significant net income of over $10 million during the first quarter which the Company will use to reduce its deferred tax assets and related reserves. These actions, along with Terme's projected growth in our multiple areas of business should lead to steadily increasing revenues and shareholder value throughout the rest of  2014," commented CEO of Terme Bancorp, John G. Yedinak.
