+ Intracoastal Bank declares fourth quarter results
Intracoastal Bank announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ending Dec. 31, 2010.
Net income for 2010 amounted to a record $1,196,243. Fourth quarter 2010 net income was $175,011, compared with $248,441 for third quarter 2010. The principal driver of the reduction in 2010 fourth-quarter earnings was a significantly higher provision for loan losses as a result of the bank’s fourth-quarter loan growth.
Total assets at Dec. 31, 2010, were $113.1 million, up $6.1 million, or 5.7%, from $107 million at Sept. 30, 2010. Compared to Dec. 31, 2009, total assets increased $27.6 million, or 32.3%.
For the quarter ending Dec. 31, 2010, Intracoastal’s total loans were $63.6 million, which represented an increase of $19.2 million, or 43.2%, from the same quarter a year ago and were up $5.7 million, or 9.8%, from the third quarter of 2010.
Period-end deposits for the fourth quarter were $99.7 million, up $7.2 million, or 7.8%, from the prior quarter, and were up 38.7%, from Dec. 31, 2009.
Commenting on the company’s results, Intracoastal Banks President and CEO Bruce E.
