COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho, Nov. 8, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jack W. Gustavel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Idaho Independent Bank ("IIB" or the "Bank") (OTCBB:IIBK), announced IIB's consolidated unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2010.
Mr. Gustavel reported that IIB's net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, was $1.4 million, or a loss of $0.22 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. IIB's net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was $2.8 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.4 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, for the same nine-month period a year ago. Prior period results have been restated to reflect earlier revisions to amounts reported for 2009.
Chairman Gustavel stated, "We are continuing to execute on our strategy of reducing land, land development, and lot loans. The strategy is working because of our strong capital and the careful management of our balance sheet. IIB is well above the threshold required to be considered "Well-Capitalized" under regulatory guidelines. Our Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio improved to 16.65% at September 30, 2010, compared to 15.39% at December 31, 2009, and 15.02% at September 30, 2009. Our capital gives IIB the flexibility it needs to systematically work though problem credits and not be forced into ill-conceived, short-term solutions."
"We are also working very hard to be ready to take advantage of the many opportunities that will present themselves when the economy stabilizes and turns the corner. IIB's solid capital, adequate reserves, substantial liquidity, and great people are expected to provide the foundation for capitalizing on improving markets," Chairman Gustavel said.
IIB's total assets as of September 30, 2010, decreased $29.3 million, or 5.8%, to $479.3 million from $508.7 million at September 30, 2009. Total loans, including loans held-for-sale, at September 30, 2010, decreased $99.7 million, or 24.1%, to $313.8 million from $413.5 million at September 30, 2009. Total deposits and customer repurchase agreements decreased $24.7 million, or 5.8%, to $403.7 million at September 30, 2010, compared to $428.4 million at September 30, 2009.
As of September 30, 2010, IIB's allowance for loan losses account totaled $10.3 million, or 3.32% of total loans, excluding loans held-for-sale. Non-performing assets totaled $47.1 million, or 9.83% of total assets at September 30, 2010, compared to $22.8 million, or 4.48% of total assets at September 30, 2009, and $51.5 million, or 10.36% of total assets as of June 30, 2010. Non-performing assets at September 30, 2010, included $42.4 million in non-performing loans and $4.7 million in other real estate owned.
