Unity Bancorp Reports Quarterly Net Income Increased 59% and Six Month Net Income Increased 55%

July 20, 2015 11:00 AM

CLINTON, N.J., July 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Unity Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTY), parent company of Unity Bank, reported increased second quarter and year-to-date earnings. Major contributing factors included strong loan growth, increased deposits and improved credit quality. Both commercial and consumer lending were up; with over ten percent growth in residential mortgages year-to-date.

"Our growth is a reflection of our investment in our communities and employees," reported James A. Hughes, President and CEO. "Our customers tell us what they need, and we deliver. When our communities grow, we grow. It's a win-win."

Net income was $2.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a 58.9% increase compared to net income of $1.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Return on average assets and average common equity for the quarter were 1.01% and 13.35%, respectively, compared to 0.68% and 10.31% for the same period a year ago.

Highlights include:

"I am extremely pleased with the operating results of the Bank," said James A. Hughes, President and CEO. "The record earnings are the direct result of an organization that focuses on sales and service. With a vast array of products that are tailored to our customers' needs, we are experiencing very strong loan and deposit growth. I am proud to see the continued improvement in the bank's progress, as it is a direct reflection of a great team of employees that are providing the highest level of service to our valued customers."

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net income totaled $4.4 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, compared to $2.8 million or $0.37 per diluted share in the prior year's period. Return on average assets and average common equity for the six month periods were 0.92% and 12.23%, respectively, compared to 0.64% and 9.70% for the same period a year ago.

Net Interest Income

Our core source of earnings, net interest income, increased $1.1 million to $8.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to the prior year's period. This increase was the result of the strong loan growth in residential mortgage, commercial and consumer loans. Quarterly average residential mortgage loans have increased $58.8 million, average commercial loans increased $52.0 million and consumer loans increased $19.6 million compared to the comparable quarter in 2014. Partially offsetting this increase was the lower level of interest income due to our smaller investment portfolio and the slight increase in deposit interest expense.

The net interest margin increased 21 basis points to 3.70% for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to 3.49% for the prior year's quarter. The expansion in the net interest margin was due to strong loan growth, lower security balances and the repayment of $10 million in high rate borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses

There was no provision for loan losses posted in the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to $550 thousand for the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the provision for loan losses was $200 thousand compared to $1.2 million for the same period last year. The decrease was the result of lower levels of net charge-offs facilitated by recoveries and reduced nonperforming assets.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased $253 thousand to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, noninterest income increased $368 thousand to $3.5 million, compared to the same period a year ago. Quarterly and year-to-date noninterest income increased due to higher gains on the sale of mortgage loans and increased service and loan fee income.

During the quarter, $49.8 million in residential mortgage loans were originated, of which $24.0 million were sold at a gain of $687 thousand, compared to $36.3 million originated and $11.1 million sold at a gain of $188 thousand during the prior year's quarter. For the six month period, $86.9 million in residential mortgage loans were originated, of which $42.2 million were sold at a gain of $1.0 million, compared to $58.5 million originated and $28.6 million sold at a gain of $553 thousand in the first half of 2014. All residential mortgage loans originated in 2015 that are held in portfolio for investment are adjustable rate mortgages or 15 year or less fixed rate mortgages.

Service and loan fee income increased $181 thousand and $182 thousand respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 due to increased loan processing and payoff charges.

In addition to the noninterest income increases noted above, other notable items included: 1) there were no SBA loan sales this quarter and 2) gains on the sale of securities were significantly less at $28 thousand this quarter compared to $268 thousand in the prior year's quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $508 thousand to $6.7 million for the quarter and increased $751 thousand to $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The majority of the increase in each period was due to higher compensation and benefits expenses. Compensation and benefits expenses have increased over the past twelve months due to increased head count in loan origination and support staff; as well as higher mortgage commission expense due to the larger volume of mortgages originated.

Other expense increases included: higher software maintenance expense, advertising, marketing agreements and seasonal events expense as well as director fees. OREO expenses for the quarterly and six month periods decreased due to lower property tax, maintenance, utility and legal costs to hold these properties.

Financial Condition

At June 30, 2015, total assets were $1.02 billion, an increase of $15.5 million from year-end 2014:
