FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PEEKSKILL FINANCIAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER NET INCOME,
DECLARES CASH DIVIDEND AND ANNOUNCES 100,000 SHARE REPURCHASE
Peekskill, New York - Peekskill Financial Corporation ("Company"), the holding
company for First Federal Savings Bank ("Bank"), today announced net income of
$395,000, or $0.20 per basic share, for the quarter ended March 31, 1999,
compared to net income of $437,000, or $0.16 per basic share, for the same
period last year. For the nine months ended March 31, 1999, net income totaled
$1.3 million, or $0.56 per basic share, compared to $1.4 million, or $0.51 per
basic share, for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. Diluted earnings per
share amounts were $0.19 and $0.16 for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and
1998, respectively, and $0.54 and $0.49 for the nine-month periods ended March
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company also announced that the Board of
Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.09 per share, payable
June 11, 1999 to holders of record as of May 21, 1999.
In addition, the Company announced its intention to repurchase 100,000 of its
outstanding shares of common stock in the open market over a twelve-month
period. These shares will be purchased at prevailing market prices from time to
time depending upon market conditions.
Net interest income decreased $114,000 in the current quarter compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 and decreased $92,000 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1999 compared to the same period last year. Interest and dividend
income increased $106,000 to $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1998, reflecting a $14.5 million
increase in average interest-earning assets partially offset by a 27 basis point
decrease in the average yield. Interest expense increased $220,000 to $1.8
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same quarter last
year. This increase was due primarily to a $23.9 million increase in average
interest-bearing liabilities partially offset by an 8 basis point decrease in
the average cost. Interest and dividend income increased $677,000 to $10.1
million for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same period a
year ago. The increase was caused primarily by a $17.8 million increase in
average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a 15 basis point decrease
in the average yield. Interest expense increased $769,000 to $5.2 million for
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 compared to the nine months ended March 31,
1998, primarily due to a $23.9 million increase in average interest-bearing
liabilities.
<PAGE>
During the current nine-month period, the Company recognized interest income on
certain participation loans ("TASCO Loans"), which had been placed on
non-accrual status during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. As a servicer of
these loans, the FDIC is disputing its obligation to pass-through certain
principal and interest payments on the loans whether or not such amounts are
collected from the borrowers. The FDIC suspended payments beginning in 1996, but
resumed making certain payments in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 and has
continued to make current payments. As a result, interest payments of $34,000
(including $11,000 in the current quarter) received in the current nine-month
period were recognized as income on a cash basis. However, the dispute over the
suspended payments has not been resolved, and the TASCO Loans of $841,000 at
March 31, 1999 and $876,000 at June 30, 1998 are included in the Company's total
non-performing loans.
In addition to the TASCO Loans, the Bank had three loans, with principal
balances totaling $382,000 on non-accrual status at March 31, 1999 and two
loans, with principal balances totaling $245,000 on non-accrual status at June
30, 1998. One-to-four family mortgage loans past due more than 90 days but still
accruing interest totaled $324,000 at March 31, 1999 compared to $370,000 at
June 30, 1998. The Bank had no real estate owned at March 31, 1999 and one
property classified as real estate owned with a carrying value of $94,000 at
June 30, 1998.
The provision for loan losses was $15,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1999
and 1998, and $45,000 for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
The overall allowance for loan losses was $727,000 or 47.0% of non-performing
loans at March 31, 1999, compared to $682,000 or 45.7% of non-performing loans
at June 30, 1998. There were no loan charge-offs or recoveries in the nine-month
periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Management continues to evaluate the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on local economic and real
estate market conditions, loan portfolio growth and the level of non-performing
loans.
Non-interest expense decreased $20,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999
compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was caused primarily by an
$82,000 decrease in compensation and benefits expense, partially offset by a
$12,000 increase in computer service fees and a $38,000 increase in professional
fees. For the nine months ended March 31, 1999, non-interest expense totaled
$2.7 million, an increase of $87,000 compared to the same period last year. The
increase was caused primarily by a $19,000 increase in occupancy costs, a
$31,000 increase in computer service fees, a $34,000 increase in professional
fees and a $68,000 increase in other operating expenses, partially offset by a
$77,000 decrease in compensation and benefits expense. The decreases in
compensation and benefits expense for the three and nine month periods ended
March 31, 1999 compared to the year ago periods was caused primarily by a
$64,000 charge to earnings last year for the full vesting of certain shares,
under the Company's RRP, due to the death of a Director.
Income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 decreased $45,000
compared to the same period last year and decreased $54,000 for the nine-month
period ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same period a year ago, primarily
due to decreases in pre-tax income.
<PAGE>
Total assets at March 31, 1999 were $201.2 million compared to $200.3 million at
June 30, 1998. The increase of $851,000 is comprised of a $7.9 million increase
in net loans, substantially offset by a $6.5 million decrease in total
securities and an $832,000 decrease in cash and cash equivalents. Changes in the
Company's funding sources during the current nine-month period included a $10.0
million increase in borrowings under securities repurchase agreements and a $5.4
million increase in depositor accounts, partially offset by a $14.7 million
decrease in stockholders' equity. The decrease in stockholders' equity primarily
reflects treasury stock purchases of $15.8 million (including $13.5 million in
the current quarter upon completion of the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer)
and dividends paid of $622,000, partially offset by net income of $1.3 million.
The Company's stock is traded on the NASDAQ National Market System under the
symbol PEEK .
