Tennessee Commerce Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNCC) today reported
record assets, loans and deposits for the first quarter ended
March�31,�2008. Net income was $1.37 million, or $0.28 per diluted
share, for the first quarter of 2008, compared with $1.4 million,
or $0.29 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2007.
�Tennessee Commerce reported strong loan growth across all major
customer segments during the first quarter,� stated Mike Sapp,
President of Tennessee Commerce Bancorp. �We continue to benefit
from our focus on the business customer and our diversification
across markets. We added almost $70 million in net new loans and
sold an additional $7.6 million in loans during the first quarter.
Our net loans grew almost 47% to $853.9 million since the first
quarter of 2007. �We are very positive about continued growth
opportunities in the business banking market. We plan to add new
loan production offices in key markets that will leverage our
expanded infrastructure. Our strategy is to concentrate on markets
that fit our business model and where we can hire seasoned banking
professionals that share our cultural and professional values. �We
launched a loan production office in Minneapolis during the first
quarter and plan to open a loan production office in Atlanta next
quarter. Additionally, we expanded the staff in our loan production
office in Birmingham during the first quarter as a result of their
continued success serving customers in northern Alabama. We are
excited about these new markets and expect them to contribute to
Tennessee Commerce reaching $1 billion in assets by mid-year,�
continued Mr. Sapp. First Quarter Highlights Total assets rose
44.1% to $964.4 million Net loans increased 46.4% to a record
$853.9 million Asset quality remained strong with a 1.28% loan loss
reserve to loans Total deposits increased 42.7% to a record $861.5
million Operating efficiency ratio was 51.9%, one of the best in
the industry Net interest income increased 33.6% to $7.5 million
Net interest margin was 3.30% Gain on sale of loans was $566,000
�We increased our investment in key personnel and premises since
last year to support our continued growth,� continued Mr. Sapp. �We
are enthusiastic about expansion opportunities in select markets
and the ability to attract seasoned personnel to our lending team
in these markets. We believe our focus on expanding through select
loan production offices will also benefit our operating efficiency
compared with an expensive branch network.� First Quarter Results
Interest income rose 34.8% to $17.5 million, up from $13.0 million
in the first quarter of 2007. The growth in interest income was due
to a 47.4% increase in average loans to $825.6 million for the
first quarter of 2008. Net interest income rose 33.6% to $7.5
million in the first quarter of 2008 compared with $5.6�million in
the first quarter of 2007. The growth in net interest income was
due to an increase in loans offset somewhat by a decline in net
interest margin. Net interest margin was 3.30% in the first quarter
of 2008 compared with 3.62% in the first quarter of 2007. The 32
basis point decline in net margin was negatively affected by the
200 basis point decrease in the Fed funds rate during the first
quarter of 2008. �We expect our net margin to improve in the second
quarter as higher-cost CDs mature,� continued Mr.�Sapp.
�Approximately 22% of our fixed rate CDs will reprice half-way
through the second quarter at substantially lower rates. In
addition, another 22% will reprice during the third quarter,
providing us with additional opportunities to build our net
margin.� Tennessee Commerce�s provision for loan losses was $1.6
million in the first quarter of 2008, up from $1.5 million in the
first quarter of last year. The increase was due primarily to
growth in loans, offset by an improved ratio of charge-offs and
improved ratio of non-performing loans to total loans. The
allowance for loan losses was 1.28% of loans for the first quarter
of 2008 compared with 1.31% in the year prior period. �Our credit
quality remained solid in the first quarter,� stated Mr. Sapp. �We
believe our strong local economy and diversification across a range
of business accounts has benefited our loan quality. We have no
sub-prime loans, and real estate loans represented only 37.3% of
our total loan portfolio. We believe our reserves are adequate
based on these factors.� Non-interest income declined to $527,000
compared with $822,000 in the first quarter of 2007 primarily due
to reduced loan sales in 2008 compared with the first quarter of
2007. Gain on sale of loans declined 30.7% to $566,000 compared
with $817,000 in the first quarter of 2007. The principle balance
on loans sold in the first quarter of 2008 was $7.6�million
compared with $31 million in the first quarter of 2007. The 2007
loan sales included approximately $25 million of loan
participations. There were no comparable loan participations in the
first quarter of 2008 due to timing differences and the bank�s
increased lending capacity compared with the prior year. Demand for
loan sales remains strong with the Company�s correspondent banks.
Non-interest expenses rose to $4.1 million compared with $2.6
million in the first quarter of 2007. The majority of the increase
was due to higher salaries as new personnel were added to support
the Company�s continued growth in lending and support positions.
Professional fees also increased in the first quarter of 2008 as a
result of increased compliance and audit costs related to the
Company�s being subject to the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
for the first time. �We continued to add new personnel during the
first quarter, both in lending and support positions,� continued
Mr. Sapp. �We believe these additions are an important part of
sustaining our growth in the future. Our business banking model
remains very efficient and contributed to our excellent efficiency
ratio of 51.9% in the first quarter. Our asset to employee ratio
was $15.1 million at the quarter�s end, over four times higher that
the average for other Tennessee banks.� Net income was $1.38
million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared with $1.4 million, or
$0.29 per diluted share, in the first quarter of last year. The
decrease in net income was due to reduced margins, lower loan sales
and higher non-interest expenses compared with the first quarter of
2007. About Tennessee Commerce Bancorp, Inc. Tennessee Commerce
