YONKERS, N.Y., April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Hudson Valley Holding Corp. (NYSE: HVB) reported first quarter 2014 earnings, benefitting from continued loan growth, credit quality improvement, and low funding costs.

The parent company of Hudson Valley Bank earned $1.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2014, which includes a previously disclosed $1.9 million pre-tax charge ($1.1 million after tax) for prepaying all $16.4 million of the Company's outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and a $0.2 million tax charge related to New York State Corporate Tax Reform enacted on March 31, 2014. Excluding the after-tax impact of these charges, net income was $2.9 million, or $0.14 per share, in the first quarter of 2014.

In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company reported a loss of $8.5 million, or ($0.43) per share, reflecting a goodwill-impairment charge related to its investment management subsidiary and an other-than-temporary impairment charge on the Company's collateralized debt obligation securities portfolio. Excluding the after-tax impact of these charges, net income was $3.3 million, or $0.16 per share in the linked quarter. In the first quarter of 2013, the Company earned $3.7 million, or $0.18 per share.

"We continued to take significant steps designed to deploy liquidity and diversify our product offering and customer base," President and Chief Executive Officer Stephen R. Brown said. "Recent management changes have been made to ensure that our collective focus remains squarely on these efforts, and by the end of the first quarter our new equipment finance business was launched. Additionally, our asset based lending team has already closed transactions totaling $21.8 million in commitments since we brought the team on board in late 2013. Our relationships with current depositors and customers remain exceptionally strong, and replicating that success with new customers within our well-defined market niches will continue to be our emphasis in 2014."

Balance Sheet
Loans totaled $1.66 billion at March 31, 2014, increasing 1.7 percent during the first quarter and 17.2 percent from March 31, 2013.

Commercial and industrial loans of $284.0 million represented 17.1 percent of total loans at March 31, 2014, compared to 15.9 percent at the end of the linked quarter and 17.7 percent at the end of the year-ago quarter.

Loans secured by 1-4 family residential mortgages of $314.7 million at March 31, 2014, represented 19.0 percent of total loans, compared to 19.6 percent at the end of the linked quarter and 13.3 percent at the end of the year-ago quarter.

The Company maintained very high levels of core deposits, which represented 97 percent of total deposits at the end of the first quarter of 2014. Core deposits, which exclude time deposits greater than $100,000, totaled $2.5 billion at March 31, 2014, compared to $2.5 billion at December 31, 2013 and $2.4 billion at March 31, 2013.

Portfolio Credit Quality
Overall portfolio trends continue to reflect a gradually improving credit environment.

Nonperforming assets (NPAs), which include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans delinquent over 90 days and other real estate owned (OREO), were $21.0 million at March 31, 2014, compared to $23.5 million at December 31, 2013 and $32.1 million at March 31, 2013. NPAs totaled 0.72 percent of total assets at March 31, 2014, compared to 0.78 percent at December 31, 2013 and 1.14 percent at March 31, 2013.

Net recoveries were $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2014, compared to net charge-offs of $0.5 million and $1.3 million in the linked and year-ago quarters, respectively. As a percentage of average loans, annualized charge-offs were 0.13 percent in the linked quarter and 0.36 percent in the year-ago quarter. The Company does not expect ongoing net recoveries in future quarters.

The Company's allowance for loan losses was $26.9 million at March 31, 2014 compared to $26.0 million at December 31, 2013 and $26.1 million at March 31, 2013. The allowance measured 1.62 percent, 1.59 percent and 1.84 percent of total loans at each of those dates, respectively.

Classified assets at March 31, 2014 represented 18.0 percent of Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses, compared to 20.7 percent at December 31, 2013 and 35.4 percent at March 31, 2013.

The Company's provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2014 was $0.1 million, compared to $0.6 million in the linked quarter and $0.8 million in the year-ago quarter, reflecting changes in credit mix and net recoveries recorded during the first quarter of 2014.

Revenues and Margin
The Company's net interest margin was 3.14 percent in the first quarter of 2014, compared to 2.95 percent in the linked quarter and 3.18 percent in the year-ago quarter.

Net interest income was $21.7 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $20.6 million in the linked quarter and $21.2 million in the year-ago quarter.

The yield on interest-earning assets averaged 3.30 percent in the first quarter of 2014, compared to 3.14 percent in the linked quarter and 3.40 percent in the year-ago quarter. Lower asset yields continued to be partially offset by the Company's historically low average cost of deposits of 0.17 percent in the first quarter of 2014, compared to 0.18 percent in linked quarter and 0.20 percent in the year-ago quarter.

Non interest income was $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2014, including a $1.9 million prepayment penalty on FHLB borrowings. Non interest income was $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, including a $1.2 million securities other-than-temporary impairment loss. Non interest income for the first quarter of 2014 was positively affected by higher service charges and stable investment advisory fees. Non interest income was $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2013.

Non Interest Expense
Total non interest expense in the first three months of 2014 was $21.8 million. In the linked quarter, non-interest expense was $39.1 million, including an $18.7 goodwill impairment, and $19.6 million in the first quarter of 2013. Expense savings achieved in 2013 through the elimination of non-profitable operations, have been reinvested into new strategic initiatives designed to diversify our product offering and customer base. These initiatives are already producing value as a result of the activity of the new hires in our ABL and equipment financing units. As such, salaries and employee benefits expense increased to $13.0 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $11.5 million and $11.3 million in the linked and year-ago quarters, respectively.

The following table details the Company's net income and diluted earnings per common share, and the effects of the charges during the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013.

Quarterly Cash Dividend and Capital Management
The Company's board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share, payable on May 16, 2014, to all common stock shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 9, 2014.

At March 31, 2014, the Company maintained a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.5 percent, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 16.2 percent, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.7 percent. Its Hudson Valley Bank subsidiary at March 31, 2014 maintained a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.2 percent, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 15.9 percent, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.5 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures and Reconciliation to GAAP
In addition to evaluating the Company's results of operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), management routinely supplements this evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the tangible equity ratio and tangible book value per share. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Hudson Valley Holding Corp.'s underlying operating performance and trends, and facilitates comparisons with the performance of other banks. Further, the tangible equity ratio and tangible book value per share are used by management to analyze the relative strength of Hudson Valley Holding Corp.'s capital position.

In addition, Hudson Valley Holding Corp. in this press release discloses, net income exclusive of the prepayment penalty on FHLB borrowings and the tax charge related to New York State Corporate Tax Reform in the first quarter of 2014, and the goodwill impairment and other-than-temporary impairment charges in the fourth quarter of 2013, and non interest income exclusive of the FHLB prepayment penalty in the first quarter of 2014 and other-than-temporary impairment charges in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company believes that these presentations of net income are important to investors because it provides a more appropriate comparison to the prior quarter and prior year results.

In light of diversity in presentation among financial institutions, the methodologies used by Hudson Valley Holding Corp. for determining the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above may differ from those used by other financial institutions.

    (1) Excludes unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale. Management believes that this presentation more closely
     reflects actual performance, as it is more consistent with the Company's stated asset/liability management strategies, which have
     not resulted in significant realization of temporary market gains or losses on securities available for sale which were primarily
     related to changes in interest rates. Effects of these adjustments are presented in the table below.

    (2)  Includes loans classified as non-accrual.

    (3) The data contained in the table has been adjusted to a tax equivalent basis, based on the Company's federal statutory rate of 35
     percent. Management believes that this presentation provides comparability of net interest income and net interest margin arising
     from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice and SEC rules. Effects of these adjustments are
     presented in the table below.

     financial measures. Management
     believes that this alternate
     presentation more closely reflects
     actual performance, as it is more
     consistent with the Company's stated
     asset/liability management
     strategies which have not resulted
     in significant realization of
     temporary market gains or losses on
     securities available for sale which
     were primarily related to changes in
     interest rates. As noted in the
     Company's 2014 Proxy Statement, net
     income as a percentage of adjusted
     average stockholders' equity is one
     of several factors utilized by
     management to determine total
     compensation.


    (2) Tangible equity ratio and
     tangible book value for share are
     non-GAAP financial measurements.
     Management believes these non-GAAP
     financial measures provide
     information useful to investors in
     understanding the Company's
     underlying operating performance and
     trends, and facilitates comparisons
     with the performance of other banks
     and are used by management to
     analyze the relative strength of the
     Company's capital position.
