AURORA, IL / ACCESSWIRE / October 18, 2017 / Old Second Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company" or "Old Second") (NASDAQ: OSBC), parent company of Old Second National Bank (the "Bank"), today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2017. The Company's net income was $8.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017, as compared to $5.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2017, and $3.5 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2016.

Operating Results

  • Third quarter 2017 net income was $8.1 million, reflecting an increase of $2.9 million, or 57.0%, from the second quarter of 2017, and an increase of $4.6 million, or 130.8%, from the third quarter of 2016. A nonrecurring income tax benefit of $1.6 million was recorded in the third quarter of 2017, stemming from the State of Illinois tax rate increase effective July 1, 2017, which increased the Company's deferred tax asset. Excluding this nonrecurring item, third quarter earnings were $6.5 million, or $0.22 per share on a fully diluted basis.
  • Net interest and dividend income was $19.3 million for the third quarter of 2017, reflecting an increase of $622,000, or 3.3%, from the $18.7 million recorded in the second quarter of 2017, and an increase of $3.9 million, or 25.6%, over the third quarter of 2016. Net interest income continued to be favorably impacted in the third quarter of 2017 due to the Company's fourth quarter 2016 acquisition of $221.0 million of loans from the purchase of the Chicago branch of Talmer Bank and Trust. Purchase accounting accretion income realized in the third quarter of 2017 totaled $265,000, as compared to $495,000 in the second quarter of 2017 and $0 in the third quarter of 2016.
  • A provision for loan losses expense of $300,000 and $750,000 was recorded in the third quarter of 2017 and the second quarter 2017, respectively. No provision for loan losses was recorded in the third quarter of 2016.
  • Noninterest income was $7.8 million for the third quarter of 2017, which reflects growth of $526,000, or 7.2%, as compared to the second quarter of 2017, and an increase of $1.2 million, or 18.9%, over the third quarter of 2016. Growth was primarily driven by commercial swap fee income and decreases in security losses.
  • Noninterest expense of $16.9 million in the third quarter of 2017 reflected a decrease of $1.1 million, or 5.9%, as compared to the second quarter of 2017, but an increase of $336,000, or 2.0%, from the third quarter of 2016. The variance in the current year linked quarter expense reflects certain one-time costs incurred in the second quarter of 2017, and the year over year variance is primarily due to an increased employee headcount associated with the Talmer branch acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2016.
  • On October 17, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.01 per share payable on November 6, 2017, to stockholders of record as of October 27, 2017.

Non-GAAP Presentations:

Management has historically disclosed certain non-GAAP ratios to evaluate and measure the Company's performance, including a net interest margin calculation. The net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income on a tax equivalent basis by average earning assets for the period. Management believes this measure provides investors with information regarding balance sheet profitability.
