NBT Bancorp Inc. Announces Third Quarter Earnings of $0.46 per Share; Declares Cash Dividend
NORWICH, NY, Oct 27, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) -- NBT Bancorp Inc. (NBT) (NASDAQ: NBTB) reported today net income per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2008 of $0.46 per share, which is the same per share earnings as the third quarter last year. Similarly, net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $15.1 million, the same as net income for the third quarter last year. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.13% and 14.58%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared with 1.17% and 15.41%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
Net income per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $1.34 per share, up $0.12, or 9.8%, from $1.22 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.11% and 14.26%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared with 1.08% and 13.77%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $43.5 million, up $2.1 million, or 5.1%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily the result of increases in net interest income and noninterest income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense.
NBT President and CEO Martin Dietrich said: "Given the current economic conditions and the credit crisis throughout our financial system, many challenges face the banking industry today. Despite these challenges, we are extremely pleased with our earnings through the first nine months of 2008. While many banks are currently distracted by major credit problems, we have maintained focus on our diligent underwriting practices and are proud of our disciplined credit culture. We continue to maintain our capital above the minimum levels required to be 'well capitalized' by our regulators. Our efforts to stimulate our noninterest income growth through various fee income initiatives and other areas of noninterest income continue to produce outstanding results. Noninterest income is up 19.1% year to date as of September 30, 2008, as compared with the same period last year. In addition, we continue to grow our net interest income in this rate environment by strategically managing earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Our net interest margin was 3.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, up from 3.61% for the same period in 2007. We will continue to navigate through these difficult economic times focused on positioning our company for continued future success."
Loan and Lease Quality and Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
Nonperforming loans at September 30, 2008 were $24.7 million or 0.69% of total loans and leases compared with $30.6 million or 0.88% at December 31, 2007, and $30.7 million or 0.90% at September 30, 2007. The decrease in nonperforming loans at September 30, 2008 from December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007 was primarily the result of net charge-offs during the nine month period ending September 30, 2008 related to two large commercial loans, both of which had been previously identified and one of the two reserved for in 2007. The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $55.8 million at September 30, 2008, as compared with $54.2 million at December 31, 2007, and $54.8 million at September 30, 2007.
The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $7.2 million during the third quarter of 2008 compared with $4.8 million for the three months ending September 30, 2007. The increase in the provision for loan and lease losses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2007 was due primarily to an additional charge off in the third quarter of 2008 related to the aforementioned large commercial loan which had not previously been reserved for. Net charge-offs totaled $5.9 million for the three month period ending September 30, 2008, down from $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The decrease in net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2007 was due primarily to agricultural loan credit charge-offs in the third quarter of 2007, which did not repeat in the third quarter of 2008. Net charge-offs to average loans and leases for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were 0.65%, compared with 0.82% for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The Company's allowance for loan and lease losses was 1.55% of loans and leases at September 30, 2008, compared with 1.57% at December 31, 2008 and 1.60% at September 30, 2007.

The increase in net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was due primarily to additional charge-offs in 2008 related to two large commercial loans, which had been previously identified and reserved for in 2007 and an additional charge-off related to one of the aforementioned large commercial loans in the third quarter, which had not previously been reserved for. Net charge-offs to average loans and leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were 0.67%, compared with 0.49% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

In addition, the Company experienced a 3.1% growth in average earning assets for the three months ending September 30, 2008 as compared to the three months ending September 30, 2007, due primarily to an increase in average loans and leases. Although the yield on interest earning assets decreased 47 basis points, the yield on interest bearing liabilities declined 98 basis points, which contributed to the increase in the net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period for 2007.

The yield on short term borrowings declined 282 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2007 as a result of the 275 basis point drop in the Fed Funds Target Rate from 4.75% at September 30, 2007 to 2.00% at September 30, 2008.

The yield on money market deposit accounts declined from 3.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to 1.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, while the yield on time deposits decreased 75 basis points for the same period. The yield on short term borrowings declined 223 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as a result of the aforementioned 275 basis point drop in the Fed Funds Target Rate.

Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $19.0 million, up $2.5 million or 14.7% from $16.5 million for the same period in 2007. The increase in noninterest income was due primarily to an increase in fees from service charges on deposit accounts and ATM and debit cards, which collectively increased $1.4 million as the benefits of various initiatives continued to enhance fee income. In addition, broker/dealer and insurance revenue increased approximately $1.3 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 due primarily to revenue generated by Mang Insurance Agency, LLC, which was acquired during the third quarter of 2008. Other noninterest income decreased $0.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2008, compared with the same period in 2007.

This increase stems primarily from an increase in customer accounts resulting from successful business development.

Net securities gains for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were approximately $1.5 million for both periods.
Noninterest Expense and Income Tax Expense
Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $37.1 million, up from $31.2 million for the same period in 2007. Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.0 million, or 6.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the same period in 2007. This increase was due primarily to increases in full time equivalent employees during 2008 largely due to new branch activity as well as the aforementioned acquisition. Occupancy, equipment and data processing and communications charges were $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008, up $0.9 million, or 12.2%, from $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase was due primarily to an increase in expenses related to the five new branches the Company has opened within the past year. The Company recorded an impairment on lease residual assets totaling $2.0 million as a result of a growth in losses incurred from the sales of certain returned leased vehicles. Other operating expenses were $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008, up $1.9 million from $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase resulted primarily from the aforementioned losses incurred from sales of certain returned lease vehicles totaling approximately $0.9 million during the third quarter of 2008 due to reduced values of the vehicles. In addition, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance premiums increased approximately $0.5 million for the three month period ending September 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007. Income tax expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 was $6.7 million, up from $6.6 million for the same period in 2007.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $5.7 million, or 12.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the same period in 2007. This increase was due primarily to increases in full time equivalent employees during 2008 largely due to new branch activity as well as the aforementioned acquisition, and reduced levels of incentive compensation in 2007. Occupancy, equipment and data processing and communications charges were $25.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, up $2.6 million, or 11.8%, from $22.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This increase was due primarily to an increase in expenses related to the aforementioned branch openings. Professional fees and outside services increased $2.0 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, compared with the same period in 2007, due primarily to fees and costs related to the aforementioned noninterest income initiatives.
