(AMEX: PAB) reported net income of $2.48 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2005, a 16.6% increase compared to the $2.13 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, reported for the same period in 2004. The results for the first quarter also represent a 12.1% increase over the $2.21 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, reported for the fourth quarter of 2004. In other news, the Company announced the April 2005 opening of a loan production office in Atlanta, Cobb County, Georgia. "We are excited about our continued expansion in the Atlanta metro region, and we are optimistic that this new location will afford us another opportunity to serve our existing customers and to establish new relationships," stated President and CEO, M. Burke Welsh, Jr. The Company reported total assets of $907.1 million as of March 31, 2005, a 4.4% increase from December 31, 2004. The Company also reported $679.6 million in total loans and $701.0 million in total deposits as of the end of the first quarter 2005. Total loans increased $33.5 million, or 5.2%, during the quarter. Total deposits increased $43.5 million, or 6.6%, during the quarter. Since March 31, 2004, total loans have increased 23.8%, or $130.5 million, and total deposits have increased 25.9%, or $144.1 million. The net earnings for the quarter resulted in a return on average assets ("ROA") of 1.13% and a return on average equity ("ROE") of 12.16%. The Company reported an ROA and ROE of 1.17% and 10.99%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2004. The Company also reported a 4.19% net interest margin for the first quarter of 2005 compared to a 4.34% net interest margin for the same period in 2004. The 15 basis point decrease in the net interest margin was due to an increase in the Company's incremental cost of funds and a tighter net interest spread on the assets added during the quarter. The Company's average yield on earning assets for the quarter was 6.09%, a 29 basis point improvement compared to an average yield on earning assets of 5.80% during the first quarter of 2004. In contrast, the Company's average rate paid for interest-bearing deposits and other borrowings was 2.26% for the quarter, a 49 basis point increase compared to an average rate of 1.77% paid for funds during the same period last year. The Company reported total nonperforming assets of $6.5 million, or 0.72% of total assets, as of March 31, 2005, an 86% increase compared to the $3.5 million in nonperforming assets held at the end of the fourth quarter 2004. While the majority of the nonperforming assets reported as of the previous year end were resolved during the period, a $5.7 million loan relationship was placed on nonaccrual status during the quarter resulting in the increase. The Company reported $340,000 in net recoveries of prior loan losses during the quarter, resulting in an annualized -0.21% ratio of net losses to average loans, compared to a 0.30% net loss ratio from the same period in 2004.
