Centrue Financial Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2009 Results

ST. LOUIS, MO--(Marketwire - August 10, 2009) - Centrue Financial Corporation (the "Company" or "Centrue") TRUE, parent company of Centrue Bank, reported a second quarter 2009 net loss of $16.2 million, or $(2.77) per common diluted share, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.44 per common diluted share, for the same period in 2008. For the first half of 2009, Centrue reported a net loss of $15.2 million, or $(2.66) per common diluted share, compared with net income of $5.2 million, or $0.83 per common diluted share, for the same period in 2008.

The results for the second quarter 2009 were adversely impacted by a $13.1 million provision for loan losses largely related to asset quality deterioration in the Company's land development, construction and commercial real estate portfolios and a non-cash charge of $8.5 million for impairment of goodwill in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Also contributing to the loss was a $4.7 million non-cash impairment charge related to securities largely reflective of continued deterioration of general economic conditions and extraordinary volatility in the securities markets. Excluding the one-time non-cash goodwill impairment charge, the second quarter 2009 net loss equaled $8.5 million, or $(1.48) per common diluted share.

"We continue to proactively work through an increasingly more challenging credit cycle," remarked President & CEO Thomas A. Daiber. "In order to further enhance identification, monitoring and resolution of problem credits, we hired two experienced commercial lenders during the quarter who bring considerable additional strength to our credit team. Despite our best efforts, however, nonperforming loans increased significantly from year-end as more of our borrowers were unable to meet their credit obligations in light of the still struggling economy. Consequently, we recognized loan loss provisions resulting in an increase in our allowance for possible loan losses to 2.82% of total loans. Nonperforming loans remain concentrated primarily in land development, construction, and commercial real estate, which are areas stressed with persistent downward pressure on valuations. Substantially increasing provision levels, while continuing to work with our borrowers, will help to mitigate exposure during this difficult economic period."

Commenting on the Company's goodwill write-off, Daiber went on to say, "After carefully considering numerous factors, including a valuation by an independent third party, unprecedented weakness in the financial markets, trading of the Company's common stock at a discount to tangible book value resulting in declining market capitalization, and similar action taken by other bank holding companies, we concluded that the goodwill impairment charge is a prudent course of action to take in this uncertain economic environment. While this non-cash accounting charge impacts reported earnings, it has no effect on the operation of our business, service to our customers, our strong liquidity position, cash flows, or regulatory capital ratios.

"The challenging economic and operating environment calls for difficult decisions and a specific action plan that puts Centrue on a solid foundation for the future. The Company's Board of Directors has determined it will suspend the cash dividends on common stock, defer cash dividends on preferred stocks, and defer interest payments on our trust preferred subordinated debentures. Though the Company has sufficient capital and liquidity to pay dividends on common stock, this action will allow further preservation of already strong capital and liquidity levels. By prudently managing our balance sheet, focusing on our core banking businesses and continuing to provide exceptional service to our customers, we will be in a stronger position to realize our long-term growth potential and build franchise value."

Second Quarter Results:

-- Capital ratios remain strong. Total risk-based capital ratio was 14.29%; tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 12.11%; and tangible common equity to tangible assets was 5.75%. -- Nonperforming loans increased to 7.10% of total loans as compared to 1.57% at March 31, 2009, 1.03% at December 31, 2008 and 1.97% at June 30, 2008. Accordingly, the allowance for loan loss increased to 2.82% of total loans as compared to 1.62% at March 31, 2009, 1.50% at December 31, 2008 and 1.15% at June 30, 2008. -- Pre-tax operating income for the quarter, excluding goodwill impairment, provision for loan loss, non-cash impairment charges on securities, and other nonrecurring items, decreased 12.8% from second quarter 2008 due to lower net interest income and higher noninterest expenses. -- Loans decreased $50.5 million, or 5.0%, from year-end 2008 and deposits decreased $15.1 million, or 1.4%, in the same timeframe. Liquidity improved as in-market deposits increased $37.4 million, or 4.0%, primarily as a result of an increase in certificates of deposit and money market accounts. Wholesale funding decreased $116.5 million, or 54.2%, as $52.5 million in maturing brokered certificates of deposit and $64.0 million in FHLB advances were not replaced. -- The net interest margin was 3.27%, decreasing 15 basis points from 3.42% recorded in the first quarter 2009 and 7 basis points from 3.34% recorded in the second quarter 2008.

Securities

Investment securities at June 30, 2009 decreased $26.8 million, or 10.6%, to $225.8 million from December 31, 2009. An unrealized loss of approximately $4.6 million associated with all available-for-sale securities has been recorded, on an after-tax basis, through stockholders' equity as a component of other comprehensive income.

At quarter-end, the Company held nine pooled trust preferred collateralized debt obligations ("CDOs") with a total book value of $19.5 million (after second quarter 2009 impairment). The investments in CDOs receive principal and interest payments from several pools of subordinated capital debentures. The Company concluded that three CDOs, which had an aggregate cost basis before impairment of $12.5 million, were other than temporarily impaired, resulting in a $4.5 million before-tax reduction in earnings. This determination, which was based on the Company's analysis in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, was due to a significant adverse change in estimated cash flows from these securities, which resulted from a significant amount of deferrals/defaults occurring in the second quarter of 2009, continued declines in value and downgrades of these securities by the rating agencies.

Management has determined that the remaining $11.5 million of CDOs is deemed to be only temporarily impaired at quarter-end. An unrealized loss of approximately $6.0 million associated with all CDOs has been recorded, on an after-tax basis, through stockholders' equity as a component of other comprehensive income.

The Company also recorded a $0.2 million impairment charge for one collateralized mortgage obligation security, with an aggregate cost of $1.9 million before charge. The deterioration in this security was largely the result of increased delinquencies on home mortgages within this pool, which implied the excess collateral might be fully depleted with some loss to the tranches.

Should the economic climate deteriorate from current levels, the securities underlying credits may experience repayment difficulty, and the level of deferrals and defaults could increase requiring additional impairment charges on securities in future quarters. The Company does not hold any securities containing sub-prime mortgages or any Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac equities.

Loans

During the first six months of 2009, gross loans decreased $50.5 million, or 5.0%, to $953.9 million through a combination of normal attrition, pay-downs, and loan charge-offs. Due to economic conditions, the number of loan applications are decreasing and many borrowers are trying to reduce the amount of debt they have outstanding in order to reduce their interest expense.

As of June 30, 2009, the Company had 17.6% of its total loan portfolio invested in land development and construction loans and 41.3% invested in commercial real estate (excluding land development and construction).

The Company does not have any material direct exposure to sub-prime loan products as it has focused its real estate lending activities on providing traditional loan products to relationship borrowers in locally known markets.

Deposits and Liquidity

The Company remains focused on growing deposits by leveraging opportunities to deepen existing customer relationships and develop new long-term relationships. During the first six months of 2009, total deposits decreased $15.1 million, or 1.4%, to $1.034 billion. In-market deposits increased $37.4 million, or 4.0%, primarily as result of an increase in certificates of deposit and money market accounts. Wholesale funding decreased $116.5 million, or 54.2%, as $52.5 million in maturing brokered certificates of deposit and $64.0 million in FHLB advances were not replaced. Non-interest bearing deposits were 11.2% of total deposits at June 30, 2009 as compared to 11.3% recorded at December 31, 2008.

Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan Loss

Total nonperforming assets were $81.3 million, or 6.19% of total assets, at June 30, 2009. This included $67.1 million of nonaccrual loans, $0.6 million in troubled debt restructures and $13.6 million of foreclosed assets and repossessed real estate. Nonperforming loans (nonaccrual, 90 days past due, and troubled debt restructures) increased $57.4 million, or 556.6%, from December 31, 2008 and $52.3 million or 337.8% from March 31, 2009. The level of nonperforming loans to end of period loans was 7.10% as of June 30, 2009 as compared to 1.03% as of December 31, 2008 and 1.57% as of March 31, 2009. As a result of the increase in nonperforming loans, the allowance to nonperforming loan coverage ratio decreased to 39.7% in the second quarter from 145.5% during the fourth quarter 2008 and 103.5% from the first quarter 2009.

The increase in nonperforming loans was concentrated in land development, construction and commercial real estate credits as a result of the deterioration of general economic conditions, the ongoing implementation of action plans on previously identified relationships, and the identification of several additional deteriorating relationships. The increase was concentrated in our commercial real estate portfolio and largely related to the following credits that are dependent on the housing industry:

-- The largest, a $13.4 million loan to a land development company that has been negatively affected by the real estate downturn. This loan is secured by 165 developed and partially developed residential lots, as well as two display homes. Lots continue to be sold, but at a substantially slower pace than originally anticipated. -- An $11.3 million loan relationship with a retailer and operator of recreational facilities has been negatively affected by the economy. Developed real estate and recreational facilities make up the bulk of the collateral value. -- A $10.9 million loan relationship with a land development company. The Bank and borrower are currently negotiating a consent foreclosure. The loans are secured by 169 acres of raw land held for commercial and residential development. -- A $5.0 million loan relationship with a residential building company. The loans are secured by two display homes, a spec home, a pre-sold home in the process of completion, and three partially complete spec homes. -- A $4.6 million loan relationship with a land development company. The loans are secured by a display home, a spec home, a senior lien on the residential lots, as well as junior liens on lots in another development and the guarantor's principal residence.

Nonaccrual real estate construction loans comprised 55.0% of total nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2009. Additionally, 91.1% of total nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2008 represented loans to 15 borrowers.

At June 30, 2009, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses to $26.9 million, an increase of $11.9 million from December 31, 2008 and $15.4 million from June 30, 2008. The allowance for loan losses represented 2.82% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2009, compared to 1.50% at December 31, 2008 and 1.15% at June 30, 2008. Net charge offs totaled $2.2 million during second quarter 2009, compared to $1.2 million in first quarter 2009 and $0.5 million in second quarter 2008.

The provision for loan losses for second quarter 2009 was $13.1 million, compared to $2.2 million and $0.9 million for first quarter 2009 and second quarter 2008, respectively. The second quarter 2009 provision for loan loss was driven by higher levels of nonperforming loans, declining real estate values on collateral for certain impaired credits where either new appraisals dictated further impairment charges of collateral-dependent loans or where other loans became totally collateral-dependent and were written down to the collateral value, and adverse risk rating changes.

Management continues to diligently monitor the loan portfolio, paying particular attention to borrowers with residential real estate exposure. While the majority of these relationships are performing, the economic outlook for this industry will likely remain extremely challenging throughout 2009 and into 2010. Should the economic climate continue to deteriorate from current levels, more borrowers may experience repayment difficulty, and the level of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies will rise requiring further increases in the provision for loan losses.

Goodwill Charge

U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires companies to perform an annual test for goodwill impairment. The Company performed its last annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2008. Results for that test indicated no impairment since the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value. Due primarily to the deterioration in the general economic environment, the resulting decline in the Company's share price and market capitalization in the second quarter, and in conjunction with the decline in earnings and increase in nonperforming loans, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $8.5 million for impairment of goodwill recorded at Centrue Bank, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."

This non-cash impairment charge has no effect on liquidity, cash flows, operations, tangible book value, or regulatory capital ratios at Centrue Bank or Centrue Financial Corporation. The impairment charge represents 35.0% of the $24.3 million in total goodwill (prior to impairment charge being taken) and the net goodwill after the impairment is now $15.9 million. The goodwill was primarily associated with the November 2006 merger of Centrue Financial Corporation and UnionBancorp, Inc.

Net Interest Margin

The net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.27% for the second quarter 2009, representing decreases of 15 basis points from 3.42% recorded in the first quarter 2009 and 7 basis points from 3.34% reported in the second quarter 2008. Over the past four quarters, declining loan yields outpaced the decline in funding costs, reducing both net interest spread and margin compared with the second quarter 2008. Due largely to continued competition in pricing loans and deposits, the protracted economic downturn, the increase of nonaccrual loans, and the Company's interest rate sensitivity, the margin will likely remain under pressure throughout 2009 and into 2010.

Additionally, downward pressure on the net interest margin and interest income lost due to non-accrual loans and loans charged-off led to a $0.3 million decline in tax-equivalent net interest income in the second quarter of 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008.

Noninterest Income and Expense

Total noninterest income for the second quarter of 2009 was $(0.9) million, a decline of $5.2 million, compared to $4.3 million reported in the same period in 2008. Excluding the $4.7 million impairment charge taken on securities, noninterest income decreased $0.5 million, or 11.6%. This decrease largely stems from reduced consumer spending and the impact on overdraft fees. Further, trust and brokerage fees declined resulting from the impact of selling the wealth management business lines in late 2008. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenue from the mortgage banking business as refinancing activity increased due to the favorable interest rate environment.

Total noninterest expense for the second quarter 2009 was $18.3 million, an increase of $9.1 million, compared to $9.2 million recorded during the same period in 2008. Results for the quarter included an $8.5 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge and a $0.6 million special FDIC insurance premium assessment imposed on all financial institutions in the second quarter 2009 in order to restore the Deposit Insurance Fund. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge and the FDIC special assessment, total noninterest expense for the second quarter 2009 remained relatively unchanged in comparison to the same period of 2008.

Cost savings were experienced in salaries and benefits due to staffing reductions and suspension of bonus and incentive compensation plans and occupancy and equipment expense due to the realization of cost savings from the sale of four branches in the first half of 2008. These savings were partially offset by increases in recurring FDIC premiums, legal fees in connection with the higher volume of nonperforming loans, and data processing and telephone costs.

In light of the pre-tax loss of $22.6 million, the Company recorded a second quarter 2009 income tax benefit of $6.3 million. It should be noted that $6.5 million of the goodwill impairment charge of $8.5 million was not deductible for income tax purposes.

Capital Management

In an effort to bolster the Company's capital and liquidity positions, the Board has elected to temporarily defer interest expense payments on all $20.2 million in outstanding junior subordinated debentures related to the Company's trust preferred securities. The terms of the junior subordinated debentures and the trust documents allow the Company to defer payments of interest for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods without default or penalty. The Company will also suspend regularly scheduled dividend payments on its common stock and defer regularly scheduled dividend payments on the $0.5 million in principal outstanding on Series A convertible preferred stock (aggregate liquidation preference of $2.8 million), the $0.3 million principal outstanding Series B mandatory redeemable preferred stock and $29.9 million in principal outstanding Series C fixed rate, cumulative perpetual preferred stock (aggregate liquidation preference of $32.7 million). By taking these actions, the Company expects to save approximately $2.8 million in annual cash payments. Though the Company currently has sufficient capital and liquidity to satisfy regulatory requirements, this action will allow further preservation of already strong positions.

As of June 30, 2009, the Company was considered "well-capitalized" for regulatory purposes. The following table presents the capital ratios for Centrue:
