Frederick County Bancorp, Inc. Reports Results for the Third Quarter 2018

Frederick County Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCPink Marketplace: FCBI), the parent company for Frederick County Bank (“FCB”), announced today that, for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded net income of $536 thousand and diluted earnings per share of $0.34, as compared to net income of $708 thousand and diluted earnings per share of $0.46 recorded for the third quarter of 2017. The Company earned $2.2 million with diluted earnings per share of $1.43 for the nine months ended on September 30, 2018, as compared to $1.7 million in earnings and diluted earnings per share of $1.10 for the same period in 2017.

The decrease in quarterly earnings was due primarily to a decrease in total noninterest income of $300 thousand in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017. This was due to a decrease of $301 thousand in the gain on sale of loans in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017. In addition, there was an increase in total noninterest expense of $362 thousand which was due primarily to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $246 thousand in the third quarter of 2018 compared the same period in 2017 and an increase in other operating expenses of $88 thousand in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.

The increase in year-to-date earnings was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $663 thousand in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017, respectively. In addition, a negative provision for loan losses of $512 thousand was recognized in 2018 compared to a provision of $364 thousand in 2017. Securities gains of $1 thousand were recognized in 2018 compared to $165 thousand in 2017. An increase in total noninterest expense of $815 thousand was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits of $310 thousand and a provision for foreclosed properties of $346 thousand, included in other operating expenses, in the first nine months of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017.

The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans stood at 1.01% and 1.28% as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and at 1.01% as of December 31, 2017. Total nonperforming assets stood at $3.7 million and $6.8 million at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and at $5.4 million at December 31, 2017. The corresponding nonperforming assets to total assets ratios were 0.87% and 1.72% as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and 1.32% at December 31, 2017.

The Company also reported that, as of September 30, 2018, assets stood at $423.3 million, with total deposits of $357.7 million and gross loans of $329.6 million, representing increases of 4.1%, 7.3%, and 4.1%, respectively, compared to September 30, 2017. Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2018 was $34.6 million, an increase of $2.0 million from December 31, 2017. The increase primarily resulted from retained earnings of $2.2 million, offset by dividends of $394 thousand, an increase in additional paid-in capital of $542 thousand, which was from the exercise of stock options, and a decline in the fair value of available-for-sale securities of $378 thousand from December 31, 2017. On a per share basis, book value increased by $0.74 for 2018 to $22.59 per share at September 30, 2018 from $21.85 per share at December 31, 2017. The dividends declared per share increased to $0.26 per share for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $0.14 for the same period in 2017. A quarterly cash dividend was declared on the Company’s common stock of $0.08 per share on September 28, 2018, while a $0.08 per share dividend was declared on October 2, 2017.
