DALLAS, April 29, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (Bank) today reported net income of $12.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Total assets at March 31, 2014 were $30.6 billion, compared with $30.2 billion at December 31, 2013. The $0.4 billion increase in total assets for the first quarter was attributable primarily to a $1.1 billion increase in the Bank's short-term liquidity portfolio, offset by a $0.7 billion decline in its advances.
Advances totaled $15.3 billion at March 31, 2014, compared with $16.0 billion at December 31, 2013. The Bank's lending activities generally remained subdued during the quarter due largely to high deposit levels and weak demand for loans at member institutions.
The Bank's long-term held-to-maturity securities portfolio, which is comprised substantially of U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), totaled $5.1 billion and $5.2 billion at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The unpaid principal balance of the Bank's investments in non-agency (private-label) residential MBS (RMBS), all of which are classified as held-to-maturity, totaled $203.5 million at March 31, 2014, compared with $211.0 million at December 31, 2013. The Bank's long-term available-for-sale securities portfolio, which is comprised entirely of U.S. agency and other highly rated debentures, totaled $5.5 billion at both March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The Bank's short-term liquidity portfolio (comprised of non-interest bearing excess cash balances, overnight federal funds sold, overnight reverse repurchase agreements and U.S. Treasury Bills) totaled $4.4 billion at March 31, 2014, compared with $3.3 billion at December 31, 2013.
The Bank's retained earnings increased to $667.4 million at March 31, 2014, from $655.5 million at December 31, 2013. On March 31, 2014, a dividend of $1.0 million was paid to the Bank's shareholders. Accumulated other comprehensive loss attributable to the non-credit portion of previous other-than-temporary impairment losses on the Bank's non-agency RMBS holdings declined from $33.2 million at December 31, 2013 to $31.3 million at March 31, 2014. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) attributable to net unrealized gains (losses) on the Bank's available-for-sale securities portfolio totaled $24.4 million and ($0.9 million) as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Additional selected financial data as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 is set forth below. Further discussion and analysis regarding the Bank's results will be included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
