Assets grow to over $500 million GREENVILLE, S.C., Jan. 16
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Greenville First Bancshares, Inc.
(NASDAQ:GVBK), holding company for Greenville First Bank NA, today
announced that net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was
$3.9 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, a 55% increase when
compared to net income of $2.5 million, or $0.78 per diluted share,
for the previous year, 2005. Net income for the fourth quarter of
2006 was $1.1 million. Included in net income for the prior year
was a non-operating expense of $930,000, net of taxes, from an
impairment charge related to the write-down on our original
corporate office building. Excluding the impairment charge, net
operating earnings for 2005 was $3.4 million. Based on net income,
return on average assets for the year ended December 31, 2006 was
0.85%, compared to 0.70%, for 2005 (based on net operating
earnings, which excludes the impairment charge on real estate,
return on average assets was 0.96% for 2005). Based on net income,
return on average equity in 2006 was 11.94% compared to 8.44% in
2005 (based on net operating earnings, return on average equity was
11.56% in 2005). The company's efficiency ratio (noninterest
expense divided by the sum of net interest income and noninterest
income) was 49.2% for 2006, which compared favorably to 60.9% in
2005. The company's efficiency ratio for 2006 was unchanged from
the efficiency ratio for 2005 excluding the impairment charge on
real estate. "2006 has been a momentous year for the Greenville
First team. We achieved two significant milestones when we exceeded
$500 million in assets and $400 million in loans. We have again
achieved over $1 million in net income for the quarter during a
challenging interest rate environment," said Art Seaver, Chief
Executive Officer. "I am excited about our growth opportunities
given our move to a new corporate headquarters building and our
announced expansion into the Columbia market." Total assets grew to
$509.3 million as of December 31, 2006 compared to $405.3 million
at December 31, 2005, or an increase of 25.7%. Loans were $402.2
million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $63.7 million or 18.8%
when compared with $338.5 million at December 31, 2005. Deposits
grew $91.4 million to $345.5 million at December 31, 2006 compared
to $254.1 million at December 31, 2005. The closing stock price on
December 31, 2006 was $21.47 per share. EXPLANATION OF USE OF
CERTAIN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains financial information determined by
methods other than in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("GAAP"). The attached financial highlights provide
reconciliations between GAAP net income, operating earnings and
noninterest expenses and comparable non-GAAP measures which exclude
real estate impairment charges. The company's management believes
that such non-GAAP measures are useful because they enhance the
ability of investors and management to evaluate and compare the
company's operating results from period to period in a meaningful
manner. Non- GAAP measures should not be considered as an
alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under
GAAP, and investors should consider the company's real estate
impairment charge in 2005 when assessing the performance of the
company. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools,
and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a
substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under
GAAP. Certain statements in this news release contain
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, such as statements
relating to future plans and expectations, and are thus
prospective. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks,
uncertainties, and other factors, such as a downturn in the
economy, which could cause actual results to differ materially from
future plans and expectations expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the
assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to differ from
actual results. Therefore, we can give no assurance that the
results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be
realized. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should
not be construed as a representation by our company or any person
that future events, plans, or expectations contemplated by our
company will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise. SUMMARY
