Carolina Alliance Reports Its Fourth Quarter Results
GlobeNewswire - Mon Mar 16, 7:00AM CDT
Carolina Alliance Bank (OTCBB:CRLN) (OTCQB:CRLN) today reported to its shareholders its fourth quarter 2014 financial results. Net income available to common shareholders of $6.1 million, or $1.48 per diluted common share, was reported for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted common share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. This $5.0 million increase in earnings was largely attributable to the increase in earning assets from the merger with Forest Commercial Bank ("Forest Commercial" and the impact of merger-related accounting, particularly the non-operating after-tax bargain purchase gain of $3.7 million related to mark-to-market adjustments to the Forest Commercial balance sheet as of the merger date of April 5, 2014. Partially offsetting these increases were increased operating expenses from the addition of the Forest Commercial operations and non-operating after-tax expenses of approximately $0.7 million for merger costs and start-up costs associated with the bank's branches in Seneca and Anderson, South Carolina, both of which opened for business in 2014. Net income available to common shareholders of $0.4 million, or $0.09 per diluted common share, was reported for the three months ended December 31, 2014, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $0.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted common share, for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in net income for the quarter was the result of the increase in earning assets from the merger with Forest Commercial, offset by increased operating expenses from the addition of the Forest Commercial operations and merger-related adjustments that decreased the year-to-date bargain purchase gain.
