HOMECORP, INC. REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND ANNUAL EARNINGS
Rockford, Illinois, January 22, 1997 - HomeCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:HMCI), the parent
company for HomeBanc, fsb today reported earnings for the quarter and the full
year ended December 31, 1996. Earnings for the fourth quarter were $348,609 or
$0.29 per share up 10.5% from $315,479 or $0.27 per share during the same period
last year. HomeCorp's earnings for the twelve month period were impacted by
Congressional legislation which included a special assessment on all
institutions insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's (FDIC)
Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). HomeCorp's special assessment
resulted in a net after tax reduction in the full year's earnings of $1,246,194.
Excluding this special assessment, HomeCorp's full year's earnings were
$1,605,025 or $1.36 per share, an increase of 33% from $1,207,482 or $1.03 per
share during the full year 1995. Including the special assessment, HomeCorp
reported earnings for the full year 1996 of $358,831 or $0.30 per share.
The Company's earnings for the fourth quarter and full year 1996 were favorably
impacted by gains in loan fees and service charges as well as income from real
estate development. Loan fees and service charges during the fourth quarter
increased 10% over the corresponding period last year, and increased 16.7% over
the prior year to $1.7 million for the full year 1996. Income from real estate
development totaled $486,629 during the fourth quarter of 1996 and $861,175
during the full year 1996 as a result of real estate closings. This is
consistent with the Company's ongoing plan to reduce its involvement in real
estate development activities.
Net interest income for the fourth quarter increased nearly 7% over the fourth
quarter of 1995. The Company's net interest income for the full year 1996 was
negatively impacted by the transfer of a significant earning asset to real
estate owned; earnings on real estate owned are reported as non-interest income.
Net interest income, exclusive of the transfer, would have increased 5.1% from
the year earlier. The Bank's net interest margin also increased to 3.15% during
the fourth quarter of 1996 from 2.92% during the same quarter last year.
The Bank's continued focus on growth in our core banking business has resulted
in a 3.5% increase in loan originations during 1996 when compared to 1995.
While the real estate loan originations remained relatively constant year to
year, steady growth continued in consumer and business loans. Core deposit
balances also increased approximately 4.5% over the prior year and the number of
account relationships increased nearly 7%.
Real estate owned declined slightly during the period. The Bank's provision for
loan losses during the fourth quarter was $170,000. The Bank's allowance for
loan losses totaled approximately $1.6 million at December 31, 1996,
representing .60% of total loans. The provision for loss on real estate and
other includes a $246,000 provision for costs associated with termination of the
Bank's position as a credit enhancer.
The Company had total assets of $335.8 million and total deposits of $311.8
million and net loans receivable of $259.1 million at December 31, 1996.
Stockholders' Equity at December 31, 1996 was $20.9 million representing a book
value of $18.48 per share.
The Bank's suit in the United States Court of Federal Claims against the United
States for breach of contract with regard to the utilization of the supervisory
goodwill as capital created when the Bank acquired failing institutions in the
1980's, continues to be stayed. HomeBanc, along with others, is awaiting notice
from the court of its order of priority for scheduling hearings of these claims.
HomeCorp, Inc. is the holding company for HomeBanc, fsb which operates ten
offices in Rockford, Loves Park, CherryVale, Freeport, and Dixon, Illinois.
HomeCorp's shares are traded on the NASDAQ/National Market System, using the
symbol HMCI.
