OAK HARBOR, Wash., July 28, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Washington Banking Company (Nasdaq:WBCO), the holding company for Whidbey Island Bank, today reported consistent profitability from an above average margin, strong operating efficiencies and growing synergies from its acquisitions. Bottom-line profits grew 30% to $4.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 50% to $7.0 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the first half of the year compared to the year ago periods.
As reported in the first quarter, Washington Banking repaid the entire investment, including warrants to purchase shares, made by the US Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program, which eliminated preferred dividend expense in the second quarter. Washington Banking earned $4.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the second quarter, when no preferred dividends were paid and $7.0 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the first half, which included $1.1 million in preferred dividends. Net income totaled $4.1 million in the preceding quarter and $3.5 million in the second quarter a year ago. Net income available to common shareholders totaled $3.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share in the 2011 first quarter, and $3.1 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share, in the second quarter a year ago.
"We are also celebrating our 50th Anniversary this year, and we have many people to thank for our success so far," said Jack Wagner, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are proud of our growth from a small branch in Coupeville, Washington, to a thirty branch franchise that is one of the most profitable and stable in the region. We could not have made the journey without our dedicated employees, loyal customers, supportive shareholders and great communities."

- Tangible book value per common share increased to $10.04 compared to $8.60 at June 30, 2010.

Acquisitions Update
"The integration of the two acquisitions we made last year has been quite smooth, and we are extremely pleased with the contribution to our profitability and our franchise value," said Rick Shields, Chief Financial Officer. "We continue to see solid retention of core deposit and reduction in time deposits in the acquired branches as planned. While loan demand remains soft, we believe that the relationships our lenders are building will produce strong results as the recovery begins to emerge.
"The resolution of the distressed portion of the covered loan portfolio continues to progress through a combination of customers refinancing loans with other institutions, regular payments, and the loan work out process," Shields continued. FDIC covered loan balances declined $41.8 million in the second quarter and $66.3 million from the end of 2010. Covered loans, which are loans that are subject to a loss share arrangement with the FDIC as a result of the two assisted transactions, are shown as a separate line item of the balance sheet and are not included in the net loan totals. Covered loans are also not included in any of the reported credit quality metrics, as they are accounted for separately per generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requirements. Both the FDIC indemnification asset and the covered loan portfolio will decline over time, as the loans mature, payoff, or are otherwise resolved.
Credit Quality
Nonperforming, non-covered loans (NPLs) declined by $1.6 million during the quarter and increased by $22.4 million from the year ago quarter, primarily from land development projects, construction and commercial real estate. "We continue to see the most stress in construction and land development projects, primarily in the northern most part of our Western Washington footprint," said Joe Niemer, Chief Credit Officer. NPL/Loans dropped to 3.37% at the end of the second quarter from 3.57% in the preceding quarter and grew from 0.67% a year ago. Nonperforming, non-covered assets/Total Assets were 1.83% compared to 2.04% in the preceding quarter and 0.66% a year ago. Non-covered other real estate owned (OREO) was $2.7 million, down 45% from the immediate prior quarter and down from $5.0 million a year ago.

Washington Banking booked a $3.0 million provision for loan losses on non-covered loans, which exceeded net charge-offs by $169,000 in the second quarter and brought the allowance for loan losses to $19.4 million up from $17.0 million in the second quarter a year ago. Total net charge-offs were $2.8 million in the second quarter, or 1.37% of average loans on an annualized basis, and $2.6 million, or 1.26% of average loans in the linked quarter, compared to $2.0 million, or 0.99% of average loans, in the second quarter a year ago. The reserve for loan losses increased to 2.34% of non-covered loans from 2.33% at the end of March 2011 and 2.04% a year ago.
Balance Sheet
Total assets were $1.68 billion at the end of the first and second quarters of 2011, compared to $1.60 billion in the year ago quarter. Total non-covered loans were $830.0 million compared to $826.7 million at March 31, 2011, and down from $832.7 million at the end of June 30, 2010. The non-covered loan portfolio is well diversified with commercial and industrial loans making up 19% and residential mortgages accounting for 5% of the portfolio. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans represent approximately 24% of the portfolio and non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans account for approximately 20% of loans. Indirect consumer loans account for 10% of the portfolio and other consumer loans account for 10%. Construction and land development loans for residential properties represent 8% and commercial construction and land development loans represent 4% of the portfolio.
Net covered loans totaled $298.5 million and covered OREO totaled $32.7 million at June 30, 2011, compared to $340.3 million and $28.8 million, respectively, at the end of the first quarter.
Total deposits declined slightly from the preceding quarter and grew 7% year-over-year to $1.48 billion at June 30, 2011, compared to $1.38 billion a year ago. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased 20% year-over-year, representing 13% of total deposits. Year-over-year, money market accounts increased 30% and now comprise 24% of total deposits; time deposits declined 13% to $610 million and account for 41% of total deposits. Core deposits, excluding time deposits over $100,000, represent 59% of all deposits. "We continue to have no brokered certificates of deposits other than the CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) program, which provides additional sources of insurance for local customers," said Shields. "Because we only take CDARS from customers in our existing footprint, we consider them as part of our core deposit base."
Shareholders' equity decreased 2% to $161.3 million compared to $164.7 million a year ago, reflecting the Jan. 12, 2011 redemption of the 26,380 preferred shares, as well as the redemption of the associated stock warrants, issued to the US Treasury in January 2009. Tangible book value per common share was $10.04 at June 30, 2011, compared to $8.60 a year ago.
Operating Results
Revenue for the second quarter was $22.4 million, compared to $23.3 million in the preceding quarter and $19.7 million in the second quarter a year ago. For the first six months of 2011, revenue grew 40% to $45.6 million from $32.5 million in the first half a year ago. In the second quarter, net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, increased 1% to $19.5 million from the linked quarter of $19.3 million and grew 26% from $15.5 million a year ago. Interest income from covered loans contributed $8.4 million to second quarter revenues and $16.7 million to year to date revenues.
The accelerated collection on the covered asset portfolio generated a $500,000 gain on disposition of those assets, which was more than offset by a $1.7 million change in the FDIC indemnification asset in the second quarter of 2011. In the prior quarter, noninterest income was augmented by $2.3 million in the gain on disposition of covered assets and $1.3 million related to the change in the FDIC indemnification asset. Noninterest income in the second quarter was also boosted by $700,000 gain reflected in other income generated from the sale of the merchant card processing portfolio to a new provider. "We were able to negotiate a more competitive product from the new provider that will enhance service to customers and provided a nice benefit to us in the quarter," said Wagner.
Washington Banking's net interest margin declined 3 basis points from the preceding quarter to 5.39% and expanded 86 basis points from 4.53% in the year ago quarter. For the first half of 2011 the net interest margin was 5.41%, compared to 4.56% in the first half a year ago. "Our margin benefits from the contribution of the acquired loan portfolio, which had an average yield of 10.02% during the first half of 2011, but can be somewhat variable from one quarter to the next," Shields noted.
Operating expenses declined 3% from the preceding quarter, primarily due to the declines in covered OREO expenses and consulting fees, but increased 15% from the year ago quarter reflecting the additional personnel costs that resulted from the acquisitions. Operating expenses were $13.7 million in the second quarter, compared to $14.1 million in the preceding quarter and $11.9 million in the second quarter a year ago. Year to date operating expenses increased 41% to $27.7 million from $19.7 million in the first half of 2010, reflecting franchise growth and $1.8 million in covered and noncovered OREO collection expenses, which were up from $664,000 a year ago.

| (1) Revenues is the fully tax-equivalent net interest income before provision for loan losses plus noninterest income. | ||||||||
| (2) Fully tax-equivalent is a non-GAAP performance measurement that management believes provides investors with a more accurate picture of the net interest margin, revenues and efficiency ratio for comparative purposes. The calculation involves grossing up interest income on tax-exempt loans and investments by an amount that makes it comparable to taxable income. | ||||||||

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) this press release presents certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company's financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the GAAP results as reported.
Operating earnings are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that operating earnings are an important indication of our ability to generate earnings through the Company's fundamental banking business. Since operating earnings exclude the effects of certain items that are unusual and/or difficult to predict, management believes that operating earnings provide useful supplemental information to both management and investors in evaluating the Company's financial results.
Operating earnings should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities, or other income or cash flow statement data calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Company calculates operating earnings may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
The following table provides the reconciliation of the Company's GAAP earnings to operating earnings (non-GAAP) for the periods presented:

Tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book value per common share are not measures that are calculated in accordance with GAAP. However, management uses these non-GAAP measures in their analysis of the Company's performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are an important indication of the Company's ability to grow both organically and through business combinations, and, with respect to tangible common equity, the Company's ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies.
Neither tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book value per common share should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for common shareholders' equity or book value per common share or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Company calculates tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book value per share may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. The following table provides the reconciliation of the Company's shareholders' equity (GAAP) to tangible common equity (non-GAAP) and total assets (GAAP) to tangible assets (non-GAAP) for the periods presented:
