LAKEVILLE, Conn., Feb. 10, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Salisbury Bancorp, Inc. ("Salisbury"), (Nasdaq: SAL ), the holding company for Salisbury Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"), announced results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2014.
During 2014 Salisbury completed strategic initiatives, which enhances its market position in each of the three states in which it operates:
- In May 2014, the Bank opened a new branch in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.
- In June 2014, the Bank completed its acquisition of a branch and the related deposits of another bank located in Sharon, Connecticut. Operations of the Bank's existing Sharon, Connecticut branch were consolidated into this new location.
- In December 2014, the Bank completed its acquisition of Riverside Bank of Poughkeepsie, New York, adding four new offices and a strong commercial loan focus to Salisbury's New York market presence.
During the fourth quarter Salisbury terminated its previously frozen defined benefit pension plan. Net one-time expenses related to the termination were approximately $208,000 (pre-tax).
Selected fourth quarter 2014 highlights
Net income available to common shareholders was $196,000, or $0.10 per common share, for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014 (fourth quarter 2014), compared with $728,000, or $0.43 per common share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014 (third quarter 2014), and $940,000, or $0.55 per common share, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 (fourth quarter 2013). Fourth quarter 2014 results include $1,153,000 (after tax) of non-recurring expense related to the strategic initiatives noted above and pension termination. Earnings per common share decreased $0.33, or 77%, versus third quarter 2014 and also declined by $0.45, or 82% as compared to fourth quarter 2013.
- Excluding one-time expenses of $1.1 million (net of taxes), earnings per share would have been $0.68 per share for the quarter, an increase of $0.16, or 30% as compared to third quarter 2014 adjusted for one-time expenses (net of taxes) of $164,000.
- Tax equivalent net interest income increased $963,000, or 19.0%, versus third quarter 2014 and increased $923,000, or 18.0%, versus fourth quarter 2013.
- Non-interest expense increased $1.9 million, or 37.6%, versus fourth quarter 2013 and increased $1.7 million, or 34.1%, versus third quarter 2014.
- Provision for loan losses was $165,000, versus $190,000 for fourth quarter 2013 and $318,000 for third quarter 2014.
- Net loan charge-offs were $190,000, versus $163,000 for fourth quarter 2013 and $36,000 for third quarter 2014.
Richard J. Cantele, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The fourth quarter saw the completion of two major initiatives – the acquisition of Riverside Bank and the termination of our previously frozen defined benefit pension plan. The Riverside transaction and integration of the two banks have been well received by our customers and the communities we serve. This is a testament to the efforts and dedication of both the Salisbury and Riverside teams and speaks well of the cultural fit of the two organizations. The termination of the pension plan is intended to reduce the Bank's future operating expenses and benefit exposure. Our results for the calendar quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 included a number of one-time expenses related to the initiatives undertaken in 2014. In addition to those completed during the fourth quarter, other initiatives completed earlier in 2014 include the opening of the Great Barrington, MA branch and the acquisition of a branch in Sharon, CT from another bank. These successfully completed initiatives will facilitate our future growth in serving our expanding customer base. We are excited about the expansion of our markets in 2014, including Great Barrington, Massachusetts, with our de novo branch, as well as the greater Poughkeepsie market with the completion of the Riverside acquisition, and we look forward to serving these communities with the same dedication that we've served the greater Salisbury community for over 165 years."

Net Interest Income
Tax equivalent net interest income increased $963,000, or 19.0%, versus third quarter 2014 and increased $923,000, or 18.0%, versus fourth quarter 2013. Average total interest bearing deposits increased $15.7 million versus third quarter 2014 and increased $4.4 million, or 1.11%, versus fourth quarter 2013. Average earning assets increased $55.1 million versus third quarter 2014 and increased $102.1 million, or 18.6%, versus fourth quarter 2013. The tax equivalent net interest margin increased 29 basis points versus third quarter 2014 and decreased three basis points versus fourth quarter 2013 to 3.68% for fourth quarter 2014.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for fourth quarter 2014 increased $26,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $9,000 versus fourth quarter 2013. Trust and Wealth Advisory revenues decreased $5,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $11,000 versus fourth quarter 2013. The quarter-over-quarter revenue decrease resulted from decreased estate administration fees slightly offset by higher market values. Service charges and fees increased $26,000 versus third quarter 2014, and increased $53,000 versus fourth quarter 2013 mainly due to restructuring of deposit fees and increased volume of debit card interchange fees in 2014. Income from mortgage lending decreased $5,000 and $80,000 versus third quarter 2014 and fourth quarter 2013, respectively, primarily due to fewer loans sold in 2014 than in 2013. Mortgage loan sales totaled $0.9 million for fourth quarter 2014, $1.4 million for third quarter 2014 and $2.4 million for fourth quarter 2013. In addition, fourth quarter 2014, third quarter 2014 and fourth quarter 2013 included mortgage servicing amortization expense of $83,000, $55,000 and $91,000, respectively.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for fourth quarter 2014 increased $1.7 million versus third quarter 2014 and increased $1.9 million versus fourth quarter 2013. Salaries and benefits increased $815,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $868,000 versus fourth quarter 2013 due to changes in staffing levels, merit increases, termination of the defined benefit pension plan, and payments related to the Riverside acquisition. Premises and equipment costs increased $260,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $379,000 versus fourth quarter 2013. The fourth quarter increase was primarily due to the increased number of leased properties and maintenance and repairs to buildings. The year-over-year increase is mainly due to the opening of the Great Barrington, Massachusetts branch, the acquisition and consolidation of the Sharon branch and related renovation expense. Data processing increased $144,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $194,000 versus fourth quarter 2013. Professional fees increased $434,000 versus third quarter 2014 and increased $346,000 versus fourth quarter 2013 due to consulting, legal and other professional services associated with the Riverside merger. Collections and OREO expense increased $83,000 versus third quarter 2014 due primarily to write-down of OREO properties, and decreased $55,000 versus fourth quarter 2013.
The effective income tax rates for fourth quarter 2014, third quarter 2014 and fourth quarter 2013 were 15.41%, 12.82% and 17.92%, respectively.
Balance Sheet Summary:
Total assets for the period ending December 31, 2014 were $855 million compared with $638 million at September 30, 2014 and $587 million at December 31, 2013. Investments of $95 million include $11.9 million acquired from Riverside. Gross loans receivable at December 31, 2014 totaling $679 million include $204.8 million of loans acquired from the Riverside Bank transaction. The allowance for loan and lease losses of $5.4 million excludes the credit mark of $8.4 million related to the acquired Riverside loans as well as the historical Riverside allowance of $2.7 million which was eliminated as required in the purchase accounting process.
Goodwill increased by $2.7 million to $12.5 million at December 31, 2014 as a result of closing the Riverside acquisition. This increase reflects $5.4 million related to loans, offset by decreases due to deferred tax assets of $1.3 million and $1.4 million related to various other assets and liabilities. Intangible assets increased, as a result of the creation of $2.2 million in core deposit intangible assets related to the acquisition of Riverside, from $872,000 at September 30, 2014 to $3.0 million at December 31, 2014.
Total Deposits increased by $193 million to $715 million during the quarter. This increase includes $204.4 million of deposits acquired in the Riverside transaction.
Shareholders' equity of $102 million reflects the increase of $27 million related to the Riverside transaction.
Loans
Net loans receivable increased $211.4 million during fourth quarter 2014 to $673.3 million at December 31, 2014, compared with $461.9 million at September 30, 2014, and increased $235.1 million for full year 2014, compared with $438.2 million at December 31, 2013. December's totals include Riverside loans of $196.6 million which reflect a credit mark of $8.4 million and an interest rate mark of $175,000.
Asset Quality
Non-performing assets increased $1.9 million during fourth quarter 2014 to $10.9 million, or 1.27% of assets at December 31, 2014, from $8.9 million, or 1.4% of assets at September 30, 2014, and increased $3.3 million in 2013 from $7.5 million, or 1.29% of assets at December 31, 2013.
Fourth quarter 2014 non-performing assets activity included: $2.6 million of loans placed on non-accrual status; $325,000 of loan charge-offs; $65,000 of loan repayments; $313,000 of loans paid off; $337,000 reinstated to accrual; and, $354,000 in inter-month tax advances and change in 90 day past due status.
Non-performing assets include OREO of $1.0 million at December 31, 2014, compared with $333,000 at September 30, 2014, and $377,000 at December 31, 2013.
Total impaired and potential problem loans increased $5.4 million during fourth quarter 2014 to $32.0 million, or 4.7% of gross loans receivable at December 31, 2014, from $26.6 million, or 5.7% of gross loans receivable at September 30, 2014, and increased $7.2 million for year-to-date 2014 from $24.8 million, or 5.6% of gross loans receivable at December 31, 2013.
Loans past due 30 days or more increased $2.9 million during fourth quarter 2014 to $12.1 million, or 1.8% of gross loans receivable at December 31, 2014, from $9.3 million, or 2.0% of gross loans receivable at September 30, 2014, and increased $1.1 million in 2014 from $11.0 million, or 2.5% of gross loans receivable at December 31, 2013.
The provision for loan losses for fourth quarter 2014 was $165,000 versus $318,000 for third quarter 2014 and $190,000 for fourth quarter 2013. Net loan charge-offs were $190,000, $36,000 and $163,000, for the respective periods. Reserve coverage, as measured by the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans, declined to 0.79%, versus 1.15% for third quarter 2014 and 1.06% for fourth quarter 2013. Loans acquired from the Riverside transaction have been recorded at fair value which includes a reduction for estimated credit losses and without a carryover of Riverside's historical allowance for loan losses. This will result in a lower allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases than we historically have had.
Salisbury has cooperative relationships with the vast majority of its non-performing loan customers. Substantially all non-performing loans are collateralized with real estate and the repayment of such loans is largely dependent on the return of such loans to performing status or the liquidation of the underlying real estate collateral.
Capital
Book value and tangible book value per common share decreased $3.20 and $2.66, respectively, during fourth quarter 2014, to $31.34 and $25.84, respectively. Tangible book value excludes goodwill and core deposit intangibles.
Shareholders' equity increased $26.3 million in fourth quarter 2014 to $101.8 million at December 31, 2014. Contributing to the increase in shareholders' equity for fourth quarter 2014 was net income of $0.2 million, a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $0.8 million, $27.3 million attributable to the Riverside merger and common and preferred stock dividends paid of $0.5 million.
Both Salisbury and the Bank's regulatory capital ratios remain in compliance with regulatory "well capitalized" requirements. At December 31, 2014 the Bank's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.95% and 12.77%, respectively, compared with regulatory "well capitalized" minimums of 5.00% and 10.00%, respectively. Salisbury's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 12.31% and 14.29%, respectively.
In August 2011, Salisbury received $16 million of capital from the U.S. Treasury's Small Business Lending Fund (the "SBLF") program. The SBLF program was established to encourage lending to small businesses by providing Tier 1 capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion. To date Salisbury has used this capital to increase its portfolio of qualified small business loans by $44.9 million and to augment its regulatory capital ratios.
Wealth Assets Under Management
Assets Under Management declined $31.2 million in the fourth quarter primarily as a result of one-time events related to the termination of the defined benefit pension plan and the revision of the basis of Life Insurance Trusts. These reductions have no revenue related impact. To a lesser extent there was also a net decline in Wealth Assets under management as a result of normal operations.
