PCLB Pinnacle Bancshares Inc (PK)

Robert B. Nolen, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc. (OTCBB:PCLB), today announced Pinnacle’s results of operations for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013:

• For the three months ended December 31, 2013, Pinnacle reported net income of $484,000, compared to $506,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.
• Net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $1,746,000, compared with $1,803,000 in the same period last year.
• For the year ended December 31, 2013, net income was $1,942,000, compared with net income of $1,955,000 in the prior year.
• Net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2013, was $6,944,000, compared with $7,374,000 in the prior year.
• For the three months ended December 31, 2013, basic and diluted earnings were each $0.40 per share. For the same period in 2012, basic and diluted earnings were each $0.42 per share.
• Basic and diluted earnings were each $1.61 per share for the year ended December 31, 2013. For 2012, basic and diluted earnings were each $1.59 per share.

Mr. Nolen commented: “Our strategy is to continue to provide high quality products and services to, and practice relationship banking with, our customers who live and conduct business in our market area. We focus on loan quality which should enhance our performance in a challenging environment. Although loan growth has continued to be limited, our core deposits and asset quality ratios have remained strong, and we have conservatively managed our investment portfolio, which we expect will provide significant flexibility if loan volumes begin to increase.”

The Company’s net interest margin was 3.40% and 3.48% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2013, respectively, compared to 3.82% and 3.92% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.

Other income increased approximately $86,000 to $1,532,000 during 2013 from other income of $1,446,000 in 2012. Other expenses recorded during 2013 were $5,997,000 as compared to other expenses of $6,096,000 recorded in 2012.

At December 31, 2013, Pinnacle’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.56%, compared to 2.07% at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of nonperforming loans was 239.47%, compared to 1018.00% at December 31, 2012. Based on current real estate valuations, Pinnacle believes its allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $730,000 in 2013, compared to $393,000 in the prior year. Nonperforming assets were $1,165,000 at December 31, 2013, compared to $548,000 at December 31, 2012. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans was 1.25% at December 31, 2013, compared to .56% at December 31, 2012. While these asset quality ratios are higher in 2013 as compared to 2012, they are well below the Company’s peer group ratios and indicate that the Company is in sound financial position.

Despite recent improvements, Mr. Nolen cautioned investors that economic conditions and financial stresses including job losses, 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.

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.
