Capital Bank (OTCBB:CBJC) today announced results of operations for the
third quarter of 2009 marked by exceptionally strong deposit and loan
growth. Deposits surged 255% or $27 million to $37.7 million compared to
the same period last year while loans swelled 199% or $28.2 million to
over $42.3 million during the same period. Assets climbed to $48.7
million compared to 2008 third quarter end totals of $23.4 million.
While the Bank reported a year to date net loss $1,506,000, the Bank
continues to be on plan from a bottom line perspective since opening for
business eighteen months ago on March 26, 2008. The operating loss is
solely attributable to planned initial operating costs as no loan losses
were incurred.
J.M. "Mike" Justice Jr., President & Chief Executive Officer stated, "We
continue to be pleased with our success in executing our business plan
to date. Loan and deposit growth is strong and accelerating driving our
Bank closer to profitability each day, with prospects of exceeding plan
in the near future. While many banks are burdened with managing toxic
assets, we continue to maintain outstanding asset quality, which allows
us to remain focused on achieving our business plan and growing our
Bank." The Bank has never engaged in sub-prime lending, holds no
foreclosed property, has not one single past due or non-performing loan
and maintains prudent loan loss reserves equal to 1.25% of outstanding
loans. Total capital is exceptionally strong with total estimated risk
based capital of over 25%, two and a half times the regulatory standard
of 10% to be considered well capitalized. Mr. Justice stated, "The
strength of our balance sheet and growing market share has been noted by
the capital markets and we are pleased with our stocks recent
performance."
John R. McGill, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer
stated, "The ongoing recognition of our Bank in the markets we serve has
contributed significantly to our success in growing our balance sheet
and our march towards profitability. At the beginning of this year we
opened our SBA Loan Department with the addition of Senior Vice
President Hector Hernandez, supported by Senior Vice President, Teri
Hudson. Within the first 6 months of operations our SBA Department has
become the 9th largest of 51 active SBA lenders in Orange
County based on dollar volume of loans funded, a remarkable achievement
in our view. We are confident that this team will continue to contribute
significantly to the ongoing growth and success of our bank."
