JACKSON, Ohio, Jan. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Oak Hill
Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ:OAKF) today reported net earnings of
$9,582,000, or $1.74 per diluted share, as compared to the
$11,379,000, or $1.97 per diluted share, in net earnings for 2005.
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, Oak Hill Financial
recorded a net loss of $86,000, or $0.02 per share. The fourth
quarter 2006 results compare to the $3,579,000, or $0.63 per
diluted share, in net earnings that the company recorded for the
quarter ended December 31, 2005. The net earnings for the fourth
quarter and full-year 2005 include non- recurring tax savings of
$261,000 and $1.0 million, respectively. Also, the 2005 earnings
include $44,000 and $546,000 of merger-related charges for the
fourth quarter and full year, respectively, and $205,000 of gains
on the sales of branch locations for the full year, all resulting
primarily from the company's acquisition of Lawrence Financial
Holdings, Inc. on April 1, 2005. Excluding the non-recurring items,
the company's net income from continuing operations in 2005 was
$3,438,000 or $0.60 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter and
$10,923,000, or $1.89 per diluted share, for the full year. A
reconciliation of the company's non-GAAP results to GAAP results is
included in the tables that accompany this release. The company's
total assets at year-end 2006 were $1.28 billion, as compared to
the $1.24 billion in total assets recorded at December 31, 2005.
Net loans at December 31, 2006 were $1.02 billion, which was
essentially unchanged from December 31, 2005. Discussing Oak Hill
Financial's performance, President and CEO R. E. Coffman, Jr. cited
the previously announced increase in the provision for loan loss
expense as the principal cause of the company's fourth quarter
results. The increase in provision for loan loss expense, which Oak
Hill Financial announced on December 21, resulted from the sale or
charge-off of various non- performing and adversely classified
loans during the fourth quarter. "The actions we took during the
quarter to clean up the loan portfolio set the stage long-term for
continued improvement in asset quality and overall performance,"
said Coffman. "We believe that we have cleared the major hurdles in
the loan area, but we still have more work to do. While we don't
anticipate further large losses, we will continue to aggressively
pursue resolution of our remaining credit issues." Coffman
reiterated Oak Hill Financial's goal of reducing the non-
performing assets/total assets and nonperforming loans/total loans
ratios to below 1.00% by the end of 2007. "We have a strong plan in
place for workout of the remaining nonperforming loans and for the
sale of our other nonperforming assets. While these objectives will
likely take several months to achieve, we believe that we can hit
our targets on both ratios by year-end." Key Issue Review and
Outlook Net Interest Margin - Oak Hill Financial's net interest
margin for the fourth quarter was 3.27%, as compared to the 3.60%
posted in the fourth quarter of 2005 and the 3.34% recorded for the
third quarter of 2006. While the company has remained disciplined
in its loan and deposit pricing, aggressive competitor pricing and
a high volume of time deposits repricing upward during the fourth
quarter impacted the net interest margin. Margin pressure is
expected to continue in the first quarter, although the company has
fewer low-cost liabilities repricing in the next few months, which
should provide some support to the margin. Operating Expenses -
Non-interest expenses from continuing operations were 2.90% of
average assets for the fourth quarter of 2006, which compares to
2.60% for the fourth quarter of 2005 and 2.66% for the third
quarter of 2006. On a linked-quarter basis, operating expenses
increased 9.2%. During the fourth quarter, compensation and
benefits expense increased due primarily to discretionary bonus
compensation for staff employees and a reduction in deferred loan
origination costs, while depreciation and other occupancy expenses
increased as a result of the opening of new branch and
administrative facilities. Operating expenses for the year 2006
increased 8.4% over 2005, which resulted from increases in salaries
and wages, depreciation and other occupancy expenses, credit and
collections expense, and various other expense categories. The
company's efficiency ratio from operations for the fourth quarter
of 2006 was 69.5%, as compared to 58.7% in the prior year's quarter
and 61.9% in the third quarter of 2006. Non-Interest Income -
Non-interest income, including gain on sale of loans, was $3.0
million in the fourth quarter, as compared to $3.1 million in the
fourth quarter of 2005 and $3.3 million in the third quarter of
2006. The linked-quarter change resulted from decreases in
commissions income, gain on sale of loans and deposit service
charges. Non-interest income for the year 2006 was $13.1 million,
an increase of 12.8% over the $11.6 million in non- interest income
for 2005. The year-over-year increase was fueled by growth in
deposit service charges, investment and insurance commissions, ATM
fee income, income from bank-owned life insurance, and mortgage
origination income. Asset Quality - At December 31, 2006, the
nonperforming loans/total loans and nonperforming assets/total
assets ratios were 1.31% and 1.48%, respectively, as compared to
the 1.33% and 1.31%, respectively, recorded at September 30, 2006,
and the 2.35% and 2.01%, respectively posted at March 31, 2006,
which represented the peak reported levels for these ratios. The
fourth quarter change in the nonperforming assets ratio reflects a
$2.6 million increase in other real estate owned during the
quarter. The increase was primarily the result of the company
acquiring a $3.0 million commercial property that had previously
secured a nonperforming commercial real estate loan in that amount.
While the change in the nonperforming loans ratio during the
quarter was nominal, there was movement within the nonperforming
loans category as the $3.0 million commercial real estate loan
referenced above came off the nonperforming loan list and other
non-performing loans were sold or charged- off. These reductions in
nonperforming loans were offset by the addition of two commercial
real estate loans with a remaining balance of $5.0 million
following the charge-off of $2.0 million on these credits. The
company's provision for loan loss expense in the fourth quarter was
$4.0 million, which resulted from the sale or charge-off of various
non- performing and adversely classified loans. In addition to the
above charge- off, the sale of several other nonperforming and
adversely classified loans resulted in charge-offs totaling
$474,000. The remaining charge-offs taken in the fourth quarter
involved various commercial real estate, residential real estate,
and consumer loans, with the largest of these being a $400,000
charge- off on a $1.0 million commercial real estate loan that is
currently in foreclosure. Consistent with generally accepted
accounting principles and regulatory guidelines, the company uses
various formulas to determine its ALLL. The methodology takes into
consideration charge-offs as well as the rated quality of the
company's loans based on loan review grades and the types and
amounts of loans comprising the portfolio, while allowing some
discretion by management to make adjustments based on near-term
economic conditions. Using this methodology, most of the loans
involved in the fourth quarter charge-offs had previously been
allocated specific amounts for expected losses in the ALLL. As a
result, management's most recent analysis indicated that an
ALLL/total loans ratio of 1.25% was appropriate at December 31,
2006. Asset/Loan Growth - On a linked-quarter basis, Oak Hill
Financial's total assets increased at a 6.5% annualized rate during
the fourth quarter, while net loans grew at a 1.8% annual pace. The
linked-quarter loan growth was impacted by the sale and charge-off
of nonperforming and classified loans and continued soft loan
demand in the company's market areas. In addition, management has
maintained conservative underwriting standards and a disciplined
approach to loan pricing. On a linked-quarter basis, total deposits
decreased at an annualized rate of 8.5% as the company maintained a
conservative approach to pricing interest- bearing deposits and
substituted lower-cost borrowings for non-core deposits. Expansion
- During the fourth quarter, the company's Oak Hill Banks
subsidiary opened a full-service banking office in Kettering, Ohio,
a suburb of Dayton. The bank intends to establish a branch in
suburban Columbus to complement its existing branch and loan
production office in that area. Stock Buyback - On February 21,
2006, the company announced that its board of directors authorized
the repurchase of 278,000 shares, or approximately 5.0 percent, of
its outstanding common stock. During the fourth quarter, 63,700
shares were repurchased, which completed the 2006 buyback program.
