CHICO, Calif., Nov. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Community Valley Bancorp (OTC Bulletin Board: CVLL - News), parent company of Butte Community Bank (the "Bank") and Butte Community Insurance Agency, LLC (the "Agency"), today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009.
Keith Robbins, President and CEO of Community Valley Bancorp, announced a net loss of $3.6 million or ($.55) per diluted share for the third quarter of 2009. This represents a decrease of $4.9 million or ($.75) per diluted share from the third quarter of 2008. The primary reason for the loss was the additions made to the allowance for loan losses of $5.9 million during the third quarter of 2009 as compared to $750,000 in the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the net loss was $6.0 million or ($.91) per diluted share representing a decrease of $9.1 million or ($1.36) per diluted share. The same reason holds true for the loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 as the provision for loan losses was $13.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2008. The loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was also influenced by a decline in net interest income which was partially offset by increases in non-interest income and the recognition of income tax benefits in the current year.
The Company's balance sheet at September 30, 2009 reflected total assets of $553.7 million and total deposits of $490.3 million, representing decreases of 7.7% and 8.1% respectively, from the September 30, 2008 totals of $600.3 million and $533.4 million. Interest-bearing deposits, primarily higher cost certificate of deposits, decreased $43 million or 9.4%, from $459.9 million at September 30, 2008, to $416.9 million at September 30, 2009. Non-interest bearing demand deposits remained unchanged from September 30, 2008 at $73.4 million. Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, decreased by $44.9 million, or 9.0%, from $497.6 million at September 30, 2008, to $451.7 million at September 30, 2009.
Non-performing assets have increased substantially from the same period in the prior year and totaled $ 43.4 million at September 30, 2009 consisting of $29.9 million in non-performing loans and $13.5 million in Other Real Estate (ORE). These totals are up slightly from the June 30, 2009 amounts of $27.0 million in non-performing loans and $12.6 million in ORE. At September 30, 2008 non-performing assets included loans totaling $8.2 million and $1.5 million in ORE. The Company continues to diligently work through its non-performing assets, but the legal procedures to obtain control of collateral on non-performing loans is a lengthy process and with today's weak economic conditions, property liquidations remain slow. However, the Company has fourteen accepted offers for properties totaling $5.1 million which are in various stages of escrow that should close before December 31, 2009.
Charged-off loans net of recoveries, were $2.3 million, or 0.51% of outstanding loans, for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to net charge-offs of $418,000, or .08% for the three month period ended September 30, 2008. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 charged-off loans net of recoveries was $8.1 million as compared to $638,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans outstanding was 2.75% at September 30, 2009 compared to 1.29% at September 30, 2008.
Net interest income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009 decreased $1.4 million or 19.6% to $5.6 million as compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2008. Interest income from earning assets was $7.1 million for the third quarter which was $2.4 million or 25.3% less than the same period in 2008. The decrease in interest income was the result of lower interest rates on earning assets during the quarter and a higher level of non-earning assets. Interest expense was $1.4 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009 which was $1.0 million or 41.4% less than the same period in 2008. This decrease was also due to lower interest rates paid on deposits and other borrowings. As a result, the net interest margin for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009 declined 86 basis points to 4.40% as compared to 5.26% for the third quarter of 2008. This margin has improved 23 basis points from the 4.17% margin at June 30, 2009. That expansion is primarily attributed to lower funding costs, as we carefully managed our deposit pricing and replaced higher yielding certificate of deposits with lower cost funds as the third quarter net interest income reached a high for the year. This has been accomplished by attracting local deposits and not depending on brokered funding sources.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 decreased $4.1 million or 20.0% to $16.3 million as compared to $20.4 million for the same period in 2008. Interest income from earning assets was $21.7 million for the first nine months of 2009 which was $6.6 million or 23.4% less than the same period in 2008. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 interest expense was $5.4 million which was $2.6 million or 32.2% less than the same period in 2008. The decrease in interest income and expense reflects the declining interest rate environment as well as the impact from the higher level of non-earning assets. As a result, the net interest margin for the first nine months of the year ended September 30, 2009 declined 110 basis points to 4.11% as compared to 5.21% for the same period in 2008.
Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 decreased $390,000, or 15.4% to $2.1 million compared to $2.5 million in the same quarter of 2008. Non-interest income for the first nine months ended September 30, 2009 increased $2.9 million, or 43.8% to $9.6 million compared to $6.7 million in the same period in 2008. Increases in service charges and loan servicing fees were realized in both periods. However, the major transaction impacting the nine month period was the sale of the merchant processing portfolio in the first quarter of 2009, which produced a pretax gain of $2.6 million.
Non-interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 increased by $1.7 million, or 25.0% to $8.7 million compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2008. Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $23.5 million compared to $20.7 million in the same period in 2008, an increase of $2.9 million or 13.8%. The increase in both periods was attributable to expenses associated with loan foreclosures and subsequent write downs of OREO properties totaling $2.3 million and $3.6 million respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 compared to $31,000 and $39,000 for the same periods in 2008. There was also the negative impact from increases in FDIC insurance costs through increased premiums and the special assessment levied at the end of the third quarter. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, these expenses were $267,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, compared to a charge of $78,000 and $234,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 respectively.
The Company's annualized return on average assets (ROAA) was (2.53)% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 0.89% in 2008 and annualized return on average equity (ROAE) was (38.17)% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 12.73% in 2008. On a year to date basis ROAA was (1.36)% in 2009 compared to 0.74% in 2008 and ROAE was (20.08)% in 2009 compared to 9.21% in 2008.
As we have reiterated for the last several quarters, credit quality and the resolution of non-performing loans continue to be a priority for our Company. Our team of professional bankers continues to work diligently to solve credit problems and find solutions for our borrowers. From the end of 2008, we have seen an increase in foreclosed assets, which indicates the migration of some problem credits through the credit resolution process. We continue to focus on ensuring that our allowance for loan losses is adequate, and to that end, we are committed to maintaining a well-funded reserve as we navigate through this credit cycle.
Finally, we believe that the economic environment will remain challenging for the remainder of 2009 and into 2010. Our liquidity position, significant allowance for loan and lease losses, and experienced management team give us confidence that we will persevere through this current economic time and regain our position as a profitable Company.
