Idaho First Bank Reports Quarterly Results

MCCALL, ID--(Marketwired - Apr 11, 2013) - Today Idaho First Bank (OTCQB: IDFB) reported financial results for the first quarter of 2013. The Bank reported net income of $106,000 for the first quarter of 2013, compared to net income of $23,000 in the same quarter last year. The quarterly net income for the quarter was close to the record quarterly income of $118,000 reported in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Compared to the prior year, the Bank achieved a 10% increase in net interest income. This was driven by average loan growth of 5% and an improving net interest margin. Mortgage banking income also contributed to the improved results. Mortgage banking income was almost three times the amount received last year.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Bank received additional capital of $1.3 million as part of a private placement offering began in 2012. Mr. Mark Miller, Chairman of the Board, stated, "The Board and Senior Management had significant participation in the offering and their investment represented 65% of the new capital."

Nonperforming assets were $1.3 million at March 31, 2013, a decrease of 51% from the prior year. The allowance for loan losses was 1.37% of loans at March 31 and 133% of nonperforming loans. Mr. Lovell commented, "We are cautiously optimistic about the improving trends in our portfolio. We continue to closely monitor the performance of our loan portfolio and aggressively take action as problems arise."

Stockholders' equity was $6.4 million at March 31, 2013, or 8% of assets. Book value was 57 cents per share, two cents less than a year ago. There was slight dilution from the new offering at 42 cents per share.
