MOUNT AIRY, NC--(Marketwired - Apr 24, 2013) - Surrey Bancorp (the "Company") (
For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, net income totaled $651,776 or $0.16 per fully diluted common share, compared with $664,057 or $0.16 per fully diluted common share earned during the first quarter of 2012.
This slight decrease in earnings results from a reduction in net interest income. Net interest income decreased from $2,320,600 in the first quarter of 2012 to $2,259,785 in 2013. Asset yields decreased from 5.31% to 4.93% from 2012 to 2013 due to the change in earning asset mix from higher yielding loans to lower yielding deposits in other banks. Loan yields also decreased from 6.23% in the first quarter of 2012 to 5.93% in the first quarter of 2013. Loan yields fell due to the prolonged low rate environment and competition. A reduction in the cost of deposits from the first quarter of 2012 to 2013 was unable to offset the tightening asset yields. The cost of funds decreased from 0.95% in the first quarter of 2012 to 0.78% in the first quarter of 2013. The loan loss provision decreased from $67,218 in the first quarter of 2012 to $42,394 in the first quarter of 2013. This decrease was due to a reduction in specific reserves attributable to impaired loans.
The allowance for loan loss reserves was $3,342,034 or 1.84 percent of total loans as of March 31, 2013. Non-performing assets were 1.74 percent of total assets at March 31, 2013, compared to 2.04 percent on that date in 2012. At March 31, 2013, the allowance equals 77 percent of impaired and non-performing assets, net of government guarantees.
Noninterest income remained relatively unchanged decreasing from $659,837 in the first quarter 2012 to $658,376 in 2013. Noninterest expenses decreased slightly from $1,853,644 in the first quarter of 2012, to $1,841,826 in 2012.
Total assets as of March 31, 2013, were $241,131,017, an increase of 5.7 percent from $228,421,181 reported as of March 31, 2012. Total deposits were $194,175,405 at quarter-end 2013, a 3.7 percent increase from the $187,184,571 reported at the end of the first quarter of 2012. Net loans increased to $177,964,603 at the end of the first quarter of 2013, compared to $177,420,797, as of March 31, 2012.
