The Bancorp, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results

July 22, 2010

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Bancorp, Inc. ("Bancorp") (NASDAQ: TBBK), a bank holding company, today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Financial Highlights

  • Period end loans at June 30, 2010 totaled $1.6 billion, an increase of $117 million or 8% over June 30, 2009 and $49 million, or 3% over March 31, 2010.
  • Transaction account balances increased $422 million or 32% at June 30, 2010 over June 30, 2009, growing to 92% of total deposit balances.
  • Core operating earnings, a non-GAAP measure, increased to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 from $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2009, an increase of 13%. A reconciliation of core operating earnings to GAAP net income is presented below.
  • Non-interest income, excluding securities gains, increased 48% or $1.5 million over second quarter 2009, reflecting significant increases in prepaid card and merchant acquiring fee income, which includes fees earned by processing merchant credit and debit card and ACH transactions.
  • Net interest income increased $720,000, or 4.5% over second quarter 2009.
  • Total assets grew from $1.732 billion to $2.123 billion or 23% between June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2010.

Betsy Z. Cohen, Bancorp’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “In the second quarter we began to see the results of our efforts to increase net loans. We added $89 million of new loans, and netted $49 million of new loans or 3% of outstanding loans, on a linked quarter basis. Our SBA (Small Business Administration) program approved its first franchisor and we expect that the program will add to further loan growth in the third quarter. Our health care deposit business also maintained its growth trajectory, with health care deposits growing 46% over deposits at June 30, 2009. This contributed to our decrease in deposit costs to 77 basis points in second quarter 2010, from 101 basis points in the same quarter of 2009.”

Financial Results

Bancorp reported net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2010 of $407,000 or diluted earnings per share of $0.02, based on 26,759,461 weighted average shares, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $125,000 or diluted earnings per share of $0.01, based on 15,351,843 weighted average shares, for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The following is a reconciliation of core operating earnings to net income available to common shareholders:

As a supplement to GAAP, Bancorp has provided this non-GAAP performance result. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful because it allows investors to assess its operating performance, specifically its overall earnings capacity. Other companies may calculate core earnings differently. Although this non-GAAP financial measure is intended to enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance, it should not be considered, and is not intended to be, a substitute for GAAP.
