Citizens Bancorp Announces Record Earnings
Nevada City, California, March 12, 2007. Citizens Bancorp (the "Company") (OTCBB: CZNB), the holding company of Citizens Bank of Northern California (the "Bank"), announced record earnings for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2006, net income was $3,034,000, a 23% increase compared to $2,470,000 in the same period in 2005. The Company earned $1.73 and $1.44 per diluted share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Earnings per share for 2005 have been adjusted to reflect the 5% stock dividend declared in 2006.
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, net income totaled $858,000, a 5% increase compared to $814,000 for the same period in 2005. Diluted earnings per share were $0.49 and $0.47 respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. President/Chief Executive Officer, Judy Hess said, "Loan growth remained strong throughout 2006, however, the cost of funding loans continued to rise. Accordingly, earnings for the fourth quarter, while higher than the previous period, were impacted by both narrowing interest margins and the personnel and occupancy costs associated with our new Truckee and Auburn branches. We anticipate that the addition of these two new branches will provide continued growth opportunities in 2007 and beyond."
Hess went on to explain, "The Company's net interest margin has declined over the past year primarily to increased funding costs." For the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 the Company's net interest margin of 5.62% had decreased by 0.65% from 6.27% for the same period in 2005. However, the Company's net interest margin of 5.62% remained above the average net interest margin of 5.04% for all commercial banks in California for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.
Total assets for the Company, as of December 31, 2006, were $280.4 million, an increase of $53.4 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 24%. Total loans for the Company, as of December 31, 2006, were $259.4 million, an increase of $52.7 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 26%. Total deposits for the Company, as of December 31, 2006 were $243.2 million, an increase of $53.6 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 28%.
President/Chief Executive Officer, Judy Hess said, "Based on the trend data as of June 30, 2006 published annually by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), we expect continued growth in the Nevada County market. We also expect our Truckee and Auburn branches to become significant contributors to our success. While the new branches grow, the impact of additional expenses related to the Truckee and Auburn offices are expected to pressure earnings in the short term."
Founded in February 1995, Citizens Bank, headquartered in Nevada City, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in 2003. In addition to the new Auburn branch in Placer County, the Bank has six other branches in communities throughout Nevada County, including Nevada City, two in Grass Valley, and one branch each in Penn Valley, Lake of the Pines, and Truckee. The opening of the Auburn branch represents the Bank's first physical entry into neighboring Placer County. The Bank offers community banking services, including a wide variety of deposit products, commercial, residential and consumer loans, and other traditional banking products and services, designed to meet the needs of small and middle market businesses and individuals.
