GLENVILLE, N.Y., Oct. 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TrustCo Bank Corp NY (TrustCo) (Nasdaq:TRST) today announced that third quarter of 2015 net income was $10.6 million compared to $10.7 million for the third quarter of 2014. Despite added operating costs during the third quarter in response to recent regulatory concerns, net income for the quarter was virtually unchanged.

TrustCo saw continued strong loan growth in the third quarter of 2015. Loan portfolio expansion was funded by utilization of a portion of the cash flow from the Bank’s investment portfolio. The rate of growth in average core deposits exceeded the growth rate of total deposit and cash management accounts, which are significantly more costly than core deposits. The continued shift toward loans helped offset the margin impact from continued comparatively low yields on cash and investments. TrustCo’s strong liquidity position continues to allow the Company to take advantage of opportunities when interest rate conditions change.

Robert J. McCormick, President and Chief Executive Officer noted, “We are pleased with the continued improvement in our asset quality during both the third quarter and over the last year. Our long-term focus on traditional lending criteria and conservative balance sheet management has enabled us to maintain strong liquidity and capital and allowed us to continue to grow our business and take advantage of changes in market and competitive conditions.”

Mr. McCormick also noted, “We consider our third quarter 2015 results to be solid as we were able to report roughly flat net income despite increased operating costs in response to regulatory concerns. As we noted in our second quarter earnings press release and related SEC filings, we anticipated higher expenses to fulfill operating and regulatory requirements. We have taken aggressive action to meet these requirements, resulting in added costs in the third quarter. While some of these costs will be recurring, others will diminish over time. In terms of our core business, we continue to make solid progress, adding customer relationships which ultimately position our business well for the future. Our highly liquid balance sheet continues to allow us to fund our loan growth without having to overpay for deposits. We look forward to the balance of 2015 and 2016 with optimism. We will continue taking advantage of opportunities as they are presented.”

For the third quarter of 2015, return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.88% and 10.35%, respectively, compared to 0.92% and 10.96% for the third quarter of 2014. Reported diluted earnings per share were $0.111 for the third quarter of 2015, compared to $0.113 for the third quarter of 2014.

For the first nine months of 2015, core diluted net income per share was $0.336, compared to $0.326 for the first nine months of 2014. GAAP diluted net income per share was $0.337 for the first nine months of 2015, compared to $0.354 for the first nine months of 2014. Return on average assets and equity were 0.91% and 10.64% for the first nine months of 2015, compared to 0.98% and 11.84% for the first nine months of 2014, all on a GAAP basis. Non-GAAP measures are defined on pages 13 and 14.

Average loans were up $218.1 million or 7.2% in the third quarter of 2015, over the same period in 2014. Average deposits were up $144.7 million or 3.6% for the third quarter of 2015 over the same period a year earlier. Most of the increase in deposits came from core deposit accounts. Average core deposits increased $103.3 million from the third quarter of 2014 to the third quarter of 2015. Core deposits typically represent longer term customer relationships and are generally lower cost than time deposits. Mr. McCormick noted that, “The year-over-year growth of our loans and core deposit base reflect the long term strategic focus of the Company.

“While some banks have backed away from branches, a customer friendly branch franchise continues to be the key to our long term plans. We continue to make significant progress expanding loans and deposits throughout our entire branch network. We expect that trend to continue as the newer branches continue to mature.

At September 30, 2015, our average branch size was $28.1 million. On a same store basis, our average deposits per branch grew by $751 thousand from September 30, 2014 to September 30, 2015. We have always designed our branches to be smaller and more cost effective than those built by many of our competitors. We use open floor plans that help maximize the value of our branches. We remain mindful that fully achieving our goals for newer branches will take time and continued work. We believe success in growing customer relationships provides basic building blocks that will help drive profit growth for the coming years.”

Asset quality and the allowance for loan losses coverage of nonperforming loans (NPLs) improved from both September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015 to September 30, 2015. NPLs declined to $31.9 million at September 30, 2015, compared to $37.1 million at September 30, 2014 and $32.5 million at June 30, 2015. NPLs were equal to 0.97% of total loans at September 30, 2015, compared to 1.20% a year earlier and 1.00% at June 30, 2015. The coverage ratio, or allowance for loan losses to NPLs, was 141.4% at September 30, 2015, compared to 140.3% at June 30, 2015 and 125.3% at September 30, 2014. Nonperforming assets (NPAs) declined to $37.8 million at September 30, 2015 from $38.6 million at June 30, 2015 and $43.6 million at September 30, 2014. Overall, virtually every asset quality indicator improved during the third quarter of 2015 relative to the second quarter of 2015 and the third quarter of 2014. The ratio of loan loss allowance to total loans was 1.38% as of September 30, 2015, compared to 1.41% at June 30, 2015 and to 1.51% at September 30, 2014 and reflects both the improvement in asset quality and economic conditions in our lending areas. The allowance for loan losses was $45.1 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $45.6 million at June 30, 2015 and $46.5 million at September 30, 2014.

The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2015 was 3.08% compared to 3.07% in the second quarter of 2015 and 3.16% in the third quarter of 2014.

At September 30, 2015 the tangible equity ratio was 8.71% compared to 8.48% at June 30, 2015 and 8.49% at September 30, 2014. The equity to asset ratio was 8.72% at September 30, 2015, compared to 8.49% at June 30, 2015 and 8.50% at September 30, 2014. Tangible book value per share at September 30, 2015 was $4.33 compared to $4.10 a year earlier and GAAP book value per share was $4.33 and $4.11, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

Tangible book value per share and tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible equity and tangible assets by excluding the balance of intangible assets from shareholders’ equity and total assets, respectively. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which we calculate by dividing shareholders’ equity by common shares outstanding. We calculate tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end by dividing tangible equity by tangible assets at period end. We believe that this is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios.

The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure of expense control relative to revenue from net interest income and fee income. We calculate the efficiency ratio by dividing total noninterest expenses as determined under GAAP, but excluding other real estate expense, net, by net interest income (fully taxable equivalent) and total noninterest income as determined under GAAP, but excluding net gains on the sale of a building, nonperforming loans and securities from this calculation. We believe that this provides a reasonable measure of primary banking expenses relative to primary banking revenue.

Core net income (“core earnings”) and core net income (“core earnings”) per share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate core earnings by excluding the net after-tax gain on the sale of the proposed Florida operations building, the net after-tax gain on a significant sale of an ORE property and net after-tax gains on the sale of non-performing loans from net income and from net income per share. We believe that this provides a reasonable measure of core net income (earnings).

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our financial position, results and ratios. Our management internally assesses our performance based, in part, on these measures. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures of tangible common equity, tangible book value per share, efficiency ratio, net income and net income per share to the underlying GAAP numbers is set forth below.
