TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Jan. 27, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:CCBG) today reported net income of $1.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.12 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2014, and net income of $2.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2013. For the full year 2014, the Company reported net income of $9.3 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6.0 million, or $0.35 per diluted share in 2013.

2014 HIGHLIGHTS

  • Margin expansion driven by four consecutive quarters of loan growth and increased deployment of liquidity into the investment portfolio.
  • Loan balances grew at an annual rate of 3% reflective of improved loan demand and calling efforts.
  • 38% reduction in nonperforming assets -- improvement in credit quality favorably impacted credit costs.
  • Core operating costs (excluding OREO) declined 5% year over year.
  • CCBG stock price of $15.54 at December 31, 2014, increased 15 percent from the prior quarter and 32 percent from the prior year.

"2014 was a great year for Capital City," said William G. Smith, Jr., Chairman, President and CEO. "We made meaningful progress across all aspects of our business – nonperforming assets declined 38%, loans grew 3.0% reflecting four consecutive quarters of growth, our margin stabilized, we reinstated the dividend and our stock price rose 32% year over year. These improvements have been accomplished through the hard work of our associates and by staying focus on those initiatives that add value to our shareowners. We leave 2014 with a great deal of momentum and look forward to both the challenges and opportunities of 2015."

Compared to the third quarter of 2014, performance reflects a $0.3 million decrease in noninterest income, an increase in the loan loss provision of $0.2 million, and higher income taxes of $0.1 million that were partially offset by higher net interest income of $0.1 million and lower noninterest expense of $0.3 million.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, the decrease in earnings was due to a $0.8 million reduction in noninterest income, a $0.2 million increase in the loan loss provision, and higher income taxes of $1.2 million, partially offset by lower noninterest expense of $1.3 million. 

For the full year 2014, the increase in earnings was attributable to lower noninterest expense of $7.0 million, a lower loan loss provision of $1.6 million, and lower income taxes of $0.3 million, partially offset by lower net interest income of $3.1 million and noninterest income of $2.6 million.

The Return on Average Assets was 0.30% and the Return on Average Equity was 2.66% for the fourth quarter of 2014. These metrics were 0.33% and 2.95% for the third quarter of 2014, and 0.43% and 4.33% for the fourth quarter of 2013, respectively. For the full year of 2014, the Return on Average Assets was 0.36% and the Return on Average Equity was 3.27% compared to 0.24% and 2.40%, respectively, for 2013.

Discussion of Operating Results

Tax equivalent net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $19.1 million compared to $19.0 million for the third quarter of 2014 and $19.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2013.  The fourth quarter of 2014 when compared to both prior periods reflects a positive shift in earning asset mix due to growth in the investment and loan portfolios and a slight reduction in interest expense. Unfavorable asset repricing continued to be experienced during the current quarter.  For the full year 2014, tax equivalent net interest income totaled $75.1 million compared to $78.3 million for 2013 with the decline attributable to an unfavorable shift in earning asset mix (relative to the comparable prior year period)) and unfavorable asset repricing, partially offset by a reduction in the cost of funds. 

Net interest income increased for the third straight quarter and was slightly higher than the fourth quarter of 2013. Historically low interest rates and increased competition for loans continue to put pressure on loan yields, partially offsetting the favorable impact attributable to growth in the loan and investment portfolios. 

The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 3.43%, an increase of one basis point over the third quarter of 2014 and a decline of two basis points from the fourth quarter of 2013.  Growth in our investment and loan portfolios helped to improve our margin from the third to fourth quarter, while the decrease in the margin from the comparable prior year quarter was attributable to unfavorable asset repricing, partially offset by a lower average cost of funds. For the full year 2014, the tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.36%, compared to 3.54% for 2013 with the decline primarily attributable to an unfavorable shift in the earning asset mix and asset repricing.

The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $0.6 million compared to $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2014 and $0.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. For the full year 2014, the loan loss provision totaled $1.9 million compared to $3.5 million for 2013. The increase in the provision over the third quarter of 2014 was due to a higher level of loan charge-offs. The lower level of provision for the full year 2014 reflects continued favorable problem loan migration and improvement in key credit metrics. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $2.2 million, or 0.61% (annualized) of average loans, compared to $1.9 million, or 0.52% (annualized), for the third quarter of 2014 and $2.3 million, or 0.65% (annualized), for the fourth quarter of 2013. For the full year 2014, net charge-offs totaled $7.5 million, or 0.53% of average loans, compared to $9.5 million, or 0.66%, for 2013. At December 31, 2014, the allowance for loan losses of $17.5 million was 1.22% of outstanding loans (net of overdrafts) and provided coverage of 105% of nonperforming loans compared to 1.34% and 81%, respectively, at September 30, 2014 and 1.65% and 62%, respectively, at December 31, 2013.

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $13.1 million, a $0.3 million, or 2.2%, decrease from the third quarter of 2014 and a decrease of $0.8 million, or 5.6%, from the fourth quarter of 2013. The decrease in noninterest income from the third quarter of 2014 reflects lower deposit fees of $0.2 million, wealth management fees of $0.1 million, mortgage banking fees of $0.1 million, and data processing fees of $0.1 million that were partially offset by higher other income of $0.2 million. Deposit fees declined due to a lower level of overdraft fees. Lower trade activity by our retail brokerage clients drove the reduction in wealth management fees. The decrease in mortgage banking fees was generally attributable to a seasonal slowdown in home purchase activity in our markets. The reduction in data processing fees is related to the loss of a government processing contract during 2014. Higher bank owned life insurance income and working capital finance fees drove the increase in other income. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, the decrease was attributable to a $0.4 million reduction in deposit fees, a $0.4 million decline in data processing fees, and lower wealth management fees of $0.2 million, partially offset by higher mortgage banking fees of $0.2 million.  Lower overdraft fees and to a lesser extent a higher level of charged off checking accounts drove the decline in deposit fees. The decrease in data processing fees was primarily due to a lower level of fees from a government processing contract that ended early in the second quarter of 2014. Wealth management fees declined due to a lower level of new retail investment product sales which were very strong in the fourth quarter of 2013. A higher level of new loan production as well as a higher margin realized on sold loans drove the increase in mortgage banking fees.

For the full year 2014, noninterest income totaled $52.5 million, a $2.6 million, or 4.7%, decrease from 2013 reflective of lower deposit fees of $0.9 million, data processing fees of $1.1 million, wealth management fees of $0.4 million and mortgage banking fees of $0.5 million, partially offset by higher bank card fees of $0.1 million and other income of $0.2 million. The decrease in deposit fees was due to a lower level of overdraft fees generally reflective of improved financial management by our clients. A lower level of refinancing activity drove the reduction in mortgage banking fees. The decline in wealth management fees was attributable to lower fees from our retail brokerage business generally reflective of lower client trading activity. Data processing fees declined due to the aforementioned government processing contract that ended during the second quarter of 2014. Higher card spend drove the increase in bank card fees. A higher level of bank owned life insurance income and miscellaneous recoveries drove the increase in other income.                   

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $28.3 million, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 1.0%, from the third quarter of 2014 reflective of lower OREO expense of $0.4 million, occupancy expense of $0.2 million and other expense of $0.2 million, partially offset by a higher compensation expense of $0.5 million. The decline in OREO expense was primarily attributable lower property carrying costs. Lower maintenance and repair costs for our premises and lower utility costs drove the reduction in occupancy expense. The reduction in other expense was primarily attributable to a decline in legal fees and advertising costs. The higher level of compensation expense was primarily attributable to an increase in stock compensation expense reflective of a higher level of performance for our stock incentive plans. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, noninterest expense decreased by $1.3 million, or 4.5%, attributable to lower compensation expense of $0.7 million and other expense of $0.8 million, partially offset by higher OREO expense of $0.1 million and occupancy expense of $0.1 million. The decline in compensation expense was due to lower pension expense that was partially offset by higher stock compensation expense. The decrease in other expense reflects lower FDIC insurance fees of $0.3 million, legal fees of $0.3 million, professional fees of $0.1 million, and printing/supplies of $0.1 million. A reduction in gains from the sale of properties drove the increase in OREO expense. Higher building maintenance costs and property taxes drove the increase in occupancy expense.

For the full year 2014, noninterest expense totaled $114.4 million, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 5.8%, from 2013 attributable to lower compensation expense of $3.9 million, OREO expense of $1.4 million, other expense of $2.0 million and intangible expense of $0.2 million, partially offset by higher occupancy expense of $0.5 million. The reduction in compensation expense was attributable to lower pension plan expense partially offset by higher incentive expense for both cash and stock plans. The lower level of pension expense was attributable to the utilization of a higher discount rate (attributable to higher long-term rates at the end of 2013) for determining pension plan liabilities. Improved company performance drove the higher level of incentive plan expense. Lower property carrying costs as well as a reduction in property valuation adjustments were the primary reasons for the reduction in OREO expense. The reduction in other expense was primarily attributable to lower FDIC insurance fees reflective of a favorable premium adjustment and reductions in both legal and professional fees. The decline in intangible amortization expense reflects the full amortization of our remaining intangible in early 2014. The increase in occupancy expense was due to higher maintenance contract costs reflective of security and technology upgrades. Higher building maintenance costs, partially attributable to non-recurring expenditures, also contributed to the increase, but to a lesser extent. 

We realized income tax expense of $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2014 and $5,000 for the fourth quarter of 2013. The resolution of certain tax contingencies favorably impacted income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2013. For the full year 2014, we realized income tax expense of $1.7 million compared to income tax expense of $1.9 million for 2013. Income taxes for 2014 were favorably impacted by a $2.2 million state tax benefit realized in the first quarter of 2014 attributable to an adjustment in our reserve for uncertain tax positions associated with prior year matters.      

Discussion of Financial Condition

Average earning assets were $2.213 billion for the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of $3.4 million, or 0.2%, over the third quarter of 2014 and $6.5 million, or 0.3%, over the fourth quarter of 2013.  The change in earning assets from both periods reflects a higher level of total deposits.  Additionally, growth in both the loan and investment portfolios led to a more favorable earning asset mix.

We maintained an average net overnight funds (deposits with banks plus fed funds sold less fed funds purchased) sold position of $288.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to an average net overnight funds sold position of $317.6 million in the third quarter of 2014 and an average overnight funds sold position of $411.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.  The decrease relative to prior periods reflects growth in both the loan and investment portfolios.

Although we have experienced loan growth in 2014, we continue to work on lowering the level of overnight funds by adding to our investment portfolio with short-duration, high quality securities and reducing deposit balances. We offer to our clients a fully-insured money market account which is provided by a third party and can serve as an alternative investment for some of our higher balance depositors while at the same time allowing us to maintain the account relationship. Until such time that attractive investment alternatives arise, we will continue to execute these strategies as well as seek other initiatives in an effort to better deploy our overnight fund balances.  

When compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, average loans have increased by $11.8 million, or 0.8% and period end loans have increased in each of the last four quarters, which resulted in an annual growth rate of 3.0%. The improvement in loans continues to be driven primarily by the consumer portfolio while the commercial real estate portfolio declined. 

Without compromising our credit standards or taking on inordinate interest rate risk, we have modified several lending programs in our business (commercial real estate and consumer portfolios) to try to mitigate the significant impact that consumer and business deleveraging is having on our portfolio. These programs, coupled with economic improvements in our anchor markets, have helped to increase overall production.

Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and OREO) totaled $52.4 million at year-end 2014, a decrease of $12.8 million from the third quarter of 2014 and $32.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2013. Nonaccrual loans totaled $16.8 million at year-end 2014, a decrease of $6.7 million from the third quarter of 2014 and $20.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2013. Nonaccrual loan additions totaled $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and $22.5 million for the full year 2014, which compares to $14.5 million and $44.1 million respectively, for the same periods of 2013. The balance of OREO totaled $35.7 million at year-end 2014, representing decreases of $6.0 million from the third quarter of 2014 and $12.4 million from year-end 2013. For the fourth quarter of 2014, we added properties totaling $3.2 million, sold properties totaling $7.9 million, recorded valuation adjustments totaling $0.9 million, and realized miscellaneous adjustments of $0.4 million. For the full year 2014, we added properties totaling $15.3 million, sold properties totaling $23.8 million, recorded valuation adjustments totaling $3.1 million, and realized miscellaneous adjustments of $0.7 million. Nonperforming assets represented 2.00% of total assets at December 31, 2014 compared to 2.61% at September 30, 2014 and 3.26% at December 31, 2013.

Average total deposits were $2.077 billion for the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of $14.5 million, or 0.7%, over the third quarter of 2014 and $26.5 million, or 1.3%, over the fourth quarter of 2013.  The higher level of deposits when compared to both periods reflects higher noninterest bearing deposits and savings accounts, partially offset by declines in money markets and certificates of deposit. The seasonal inflow of public funds started in the fourth quarter of 2014 and will continue through the first quarter of 2015. Deposit levels remain strong and our mix of deposits continues to improve as higher cost certificates of deposit are replaced with lower rate non-maturity deposits and noninterest bearing demand accounts.  Prudent pricing discipline will continue to be the key to managing our mix of deposits.  Therefore, we do not attempt to compete with higher rate paying competitors for deposits. 

When compared to the third quarter of 2014, average borrowings increased by $4.0 million attributable to higher repurchase agreement balances. When compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, average borrowings declined by $20.2 million, primarily as a result of lower repurchase agreement balances and FHLB advance payoffs/amortization.

Equity capital was $272.5 million as of December 31, 2014, compared to $283.3 million as of September 30, 2014 and $276.4 million as of December 31, 2013. Our leverage ratio was 10.99%, 10.97%, and 10.46%, respectively, for these periods. Further, our risk-adjusted capital ratio of 17.76% at December 31, 2014 compares to 18.08% at September 30, 2014 and 17.94% at December 31, 2013, and significantly exceeds the 10.0% threshold to be designated as "well-capitalized" under the risk-based regulatory guidelines. At December 31, 2014, our tangible common equity ratio was 7.38%, compared to 8.22% at September 30, 2014 and 7.58% at December 31, 2013. The decline in equity and certain capital ratios in the fourth quarter of 2014 were due to an unfavorable adjustment in the pension component of our other comprehensive income. The unfavorable adjustment reflects (1) a decrease in the plan discount rate (attributable to lower long-term rates at the end of 2014), which drives an increase in pension liabilities, and (2) the incorporation of recent changes to the mortality tables used to calculate pension liabilities. In the first quarter of 2014, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,500,000 shares of our outstanding common stock. During 2014, we repurchased 19,600 shares of our common stock at an average price of $13.69 per share.
