Pinnacle Bancshares Announces Results for Third Quarter

JASPER, Ala.--()--Robert B. Nolen, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc. (OTCBB:PCLB), today announced Pinnacle’s third quarter results of operations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, net income was $493,000, compared with net income of $494,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, net income was $1,507,000, compared with net income of $1,458,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, were $0.41 and $1.25 per share, respectively, compared to $0.41 and $1.21 per share, respectively, for the same periods last year.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, return on average assets was 0.88%, and 0.90%, respectively, compared to .89% and 0.91%, respectively, in the comparable 2013 periods.

Net interest margin was 3.31% and 3.33% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared to 3.42% and 3.51% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, Pinnacle’s net interest margin declined primarily due to lower loan volumes. Lower provision for loan losses and operating expenses helped offset the decline in net interest income.

Mr. Nolen commented: “Our strategy is to continue to provide high quality products and services to, and relationship banking with, our customers who live and conduct businesses in our market area. We focus on loan quality and closely monitor our expenses. Although loan growth continues to be challenged, our core deposits, asset quality and regulatory capital ratios remain strong. We conservatively manage our investments, which we expect will provide significant flexibility if and when loan volumes begin to increase in an improving economy.”

At September 30, 2014, the Company’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.93%, compared to 1.56% at December 31, 2013. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans was .72% as of September 30, 2014 as compared to .65% as of December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans increased during the first half of the year mainly due to the declines in outstanding loans as well as net recoveries of approximately $171,000.

Net charge-offs (recoveries) were ($52,000) and ($172,000) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared to $177,000 and $630,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans increased during the first half of the year mainly due to the declines in outstanding loans as well as net recoveries mentioned above. Asset quality remains strong as evidence of low volumes of past due loans and minimal amounts of other real estate owned.

Pinnacle was classified as “well capitalized” at the end of the third quarter of 2014. At September 30, 2014, total risk-based capital was 19.72% for the subsidiary bank. Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios for the subsidiary bank were 18.47% and 10.93%, respectively. All capital ratios are significantly higher than the requirements for a well capitalized institution.

Despite recent improvements, Mr. Nolen cautioned investors that economic conditions and financial stresses, including minimal full-time job growth, have had and could continue to have an adverse affect on Pinnacle’s borrowers and their customers, which could adversely affect Pinnacle’s financial condition and results of operations.

Any deterioration in local economic conditions in Pinnacle’s markets could drive losses beyond those which are provided for in the allowance for loan losses and result in a number of adverse consequences, including increases in loan delinquencies; increases in nonperforming assets; decreases in demand for Pinnacle’s products and services, which could affect Pinnacle’s liquidity position; and decreases in the value of the collateral securing Pinnacle’s loans, which could reduce customers’ borrowing power.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or expected.
