Zero Charge-Offs; Zero Non-Performing Assets
SANTA PAULA, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Santa Clara Valley Bank (SCVBank) (OTCBB:SCVE) today announced its
2008 second quarter financial results.
SCVBank reported that net income was $170,000 in the second
quarter of 2008, an increase of 97%, over the $86,000 of net income
reported in the first quarter of 2008. For the six months ending
6/30/08, SCVBank's net income was $256,000, or $0.23 per share, an
increase of 137% compared to $108,000, or $0.10 per share, for the
same period a year earlier. SCVBank's net interest income increased by
$233,000 or 10.7% over the same period in 2007. The Bank's net
interest margin remained strong at 4.54% for June.
In 2008, the Bank's assets grew to $108.3 million, up from $107.3
million at year-end 2007. Loans grew from $81.6 million at year-end to
$84.1 million, or 3.1% at June 30, 2008. The Bank holds $91.8 million
in deposits, up from $91.6 million at year-end. Non-interest bearing
deposits comprise 32% of total deposits.
The Bank's loan portfolio continues to perform well. SCVBank
continues to have no non-performing loans and delinquencies are
minimal. There were no loan charge-offs for the 6th consecutive
quarter. During the last twelve quarters, the Bank has charged-off
only $1,200. The Bank's liquidity remains solid, allowing for
increases in sound loans. SCVBank has been profitable since 2002.
"Our increasing net income is a testament to the strength and
conservative nature of SCVBank," stated Chairman Guy Cole. "The
Board's oversight and conservative nature continues to ensure our long
term success."
"The Bank is in a very strong capital position. We believe that
our stock repurchase program has contributed significantly to
maintaining the price of the Bank's common stock, while that of other
financial institutions has fallen dramatically," said CEO Hause.
"While we are proud of our credit quality at SCVBank, I want to
applaud our loan customers for continuing to honor their loan
obligations during these trying times. We appreciate their character
and integrity very much."
