Oak Ridge Financial Services Announces Second Quarter 2009 Earnings
Friday, August 14, 2009 1:54 PM


(Source: Business Wire)trackingOak Ridge Financial Services, Inc. (Nasdaq:BKOR), parent company of Oak Ridge Financial Services, Inc., headquartered in Oak Ridge, North Carolina, announced unaudited net income for the three months ended June 30, 2009, before adjusting for the effective dividend on preferred stock, of $242,000 compared to net income of $384,000 for the prior year period. After adjusting for $164,000 in dividends and accretion on preferred stock, net income available for common shareholders for the current period was $78,000 or $0.04 per diluted share compared with $0.21 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Earnings in the current period were negatively impacted by higher loan loss provisions and other real estate owned write downs in response to current economic conditions, an increase in noninterest operating expenses, and a slight decrease in noninterest income, but were positively impacted by an increased net interest margin caused primarily by the Company's liability rates decreasing faster than yields on earning assets.

Oak Ridge Financial Services President, Ron Black, in commenting on the results, noted, "Given the difficult economic environment, we are pleased with our profitability in the second quarter of 2009. During the first six months of 2009 our primary focus was servicing our loan portfolio, and we were very pleased with the results in this area, as evidenced by a decline in other real estate owned at June 30, 2009 from December 31, 2008, and stabilization in the level of nonperforming loans from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009. As a true community bank our primary purpose continues to be helping our clients succeed in this difficult economic environment."

Mr. Black further commented "Our primary areas of focus for the rest of 2009 will be continuing to service our loan and other real estate owned portfolios and growing net interest income and noninterest income by providing extraordinary service to existing and prospective clients. We plan to continue to support our local economy by taking deposits, making loans, and providing financial advice for our clients in these difficult times. The community was incredibly supportive of our Bank in the first six months of 2009 and we had increases in loans and deposits. Lastly, at June 30, 2009 we were well-capitalized with ample capital for future growth. "
