WAUKEGAN, Ill., July 26, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northern States Financial Corporation (OTC PINK:NSFC) (the “Company”), the holding company of NorStates Bank (the “Bank”), an FDIC insured financial institution, today reported second quarter 2016 net income of $354,000 as compared with $321,000 for the first quarter 2016. Per share book value at June 30, 2016 was $0.65.
Pretax income for the second quarter of 2016 was $554,000 as compared with pretax income of $407,000 for the same quarter of 2015, an increase of 36%. Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2016 was $200,000 as compared with $15,000 for the same quarter of 2015 due to the effect of the Company’s application of deferred tax assets in the second quarter of 2015.
Total assets of the Company were $499 million at June 30, 2016, an increase of $14 million from December 31, 2015. Loans increased $27 million, or 11.34% between December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2016 while deposits increased $14 million, or 3.54%, between those dates.
The Bank’s second quarter net interest margin increased to 3.12%, compared with 3.03% during the first quarter of 2016, while the cost of funds remained unchanged at 0.12% between the periods. The Bank’s leverage capital ratio at June 30, 2016 was 10.20%.
With regard to asset quality, the Company’s non-performing assets (“NPAs”) at June 30, 2016 decreased $4.8 million, or 19.28%, from December 31, 2015, due primarily to a reduction in loans on nonaccrual status. At June 30, 2016, the ratio of nonperforming loans to total assets was 1.78% and the allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans was 2.05%.
“We are pleased with our progress regarding profitability and credit quality,” stated Scott Yelvington, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Bank. “Our focus will remain on the reduction of NPAs and the profitable deployment of liquidity. We are also continuing our efforts to streamline operations to reduce costs.”
