Stonegate Bank (OTCBB: SGBK) reported net income of $2,800,000 or 34 cents per share for the fourth quarter of 2011, as compared to net income of $925,000 or 12 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2010, a 203% increase. The Bank earned $11,544,000 or $1.40 per share in fiscal year 2011 as compared to $3,520,000 or 45.6 cents a share in fiscal year 2010, a 228% increase.

Income and Expenses: Total interest income increased from $7.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 to $10.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. This $2.7 million increase is largely due to an increase of $179 million in total loans period to period. Total interest expense remained flat at $1.94 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to $1.90 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. This occurred even though total deposits increased $201 million period to period. Further, the Bank's cost of funds decreased 33 basis points period to period with 25% of new deposit generation non-interest bearing. This resulted in net interest income improving from $5.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 to $8.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. During 2011, the Bank recognized bargain purchase gains of $18.8 million on the acquisitions of Southwest Capital Bank, an open bank transaction, and First Commercial Bank of Tampa Bay, an FDIC assisted transaction. This gain largely represents the difference in the purchase or bid price and the fair market value of the assets acquired. Total non-interest income, excluding the bargain purchase gain, increased to $835,000 in the fourth quarter of 2011 from $300,000 in the fourth quarter of 2010. Most of this increase came from fees associated with interest rate swaps entered into with our customers, mortgage fee income and increased service charge income. Non-interest expense increased to $6.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 from $4.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The higher than normal expense is directly related to the Tampa Bay acquisition.

Margin and Cost of Funds: Total cost of funds declined from a 1.20% September 2011 month to date average to 1.11% December 2011 month to date average. Stonegate Bank's net interest margin increased from a September 2011 month to date average of 3.91 % to December 2011 month to date average of 4.06%.

Balance Sheet and Capital: Total assets grew from $638 million on December 31, 2010 to $855 million on December 31, 2011, a $217 million increase. Total loans increased $179 million from $421 million on December 31, 2010 to $600 million on December 31, 2011. Total deposits increased $201 million from $472 million on December 31, 2010 to $673 million on December 31, 2011. Slightly more than 15.0% of total deposits are non-interest bearing. Total capital grew from $95.7 million on December 31, 2010 to $118 million on December 31, 2011. This resulted in an undiluted book value of $14.32 per share on December 31, 2011.

The loan quality detail is presented by showing the legacy Stonegate portfolio as well as the Bank's second quarter FDIC acquisition of First Commercial Bank of Tampa Bay. This is presented in order to provide additional clarity on the legacy portfolio trends as well as the Bank's progress in reducing non-performing loans and REO on the recent acquisition. The Bank's legacy non-performing assets increased slightly from $5.6 million on September 30, 2011 to $5.8 million on December 31, 2011. Overall, legacy non-performing assets represent 1.06% of total legacy loans. Total non-performing loans decreased from $11.6 million at September 30, 2011 to $10.3 million at December 31, 2011. Approximately half of the $10.3 million in non-performing loans are in the acquired First Commercial Bank of Tampa Bay portfolio. It should be noted that the First Commercial Bank of Tampa Bay portfolio continues to improve as reflected by the decline in non-performing loans from $6.8 million on June 30, 2011 to $4.5 million at December 31, 2011. Total Bank wide non-performing loans represent 1.21% of assets and 1.72% of total loans on December 31, 2011.

Management believes all non-performing assets and REO are written down to fair market value. Real estate owned decreased from $6.6 million on September 30, 2011 to $5.9 million on December 31, 2011.

The Bank's loan loss reserve was $14.4 million on December 31, 2011. This reserve represents 139% of all non-performing loans and 2.4% of total loans. Total loans past due more than 30 days remained relatively the same at 685,000 on September 30, 2011 and $655,000 on December 31, 2011.

"Clearly 2011 was the best year for Stonegate since our inception in 2005," said Dave Seleski, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Not only did the Bank have record earnings but some very compelling growth numbers. The Bank's assets increased $217 million. We also increased our non-interest bearing deposits 62%. Consequently, our overall non-interest bearing deposits increased to 15% of total deposits. Finally, organic loan growth was robust at 9.0%. The Bank also made significant strides in improving our asset quality in Tampa. We are going to continue to focus on organic growth in 2012 while being opportunistic in terms of acquisitions."
