TF Financial Corporation Reports First Quarter 2010 Results and Quarterly Dividend in live concerns

NEWTOWN, Pa., Apr 29, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- TF Financial Corporation /quotes/comstock/15*!thrd/quotes/nls/thrd (THRD 19.02, -0.24, -1.22%) today reported net income of $717,000 ($0.28 per diluted share) for the first quarter of 2010, compared with $1,020,000 ($0.41 per diluted share) for the first quarter of 2009. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors had declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share, payable May 14, 2010 to shareholders of record on May 10, 2010.
Results for the current quarter included:
--  Net income decreased by $303,000 or 29.7% compared with the first
      quarter of 2009. Diluted earnings per share were $0.28, a $0.13 or 31.7%
      decrease from the first quarter of 2009. Dividends paid per share were
      $0.20 during both the first quarter of 2010 and 2009.
  --  Pre-tax income was $895,000 during the quarter, down $470,000 from the
      first quarter of 2009, mainly the result of the $296,000 increase in the
      provision for loan losses during 2010 and non-recurring gain on sale of
      investments of $190,000 which occurred during the first quarter of 2009.
  --  Net interest income was $5,832,000 which was a $53,000 or 0.9% increase
      over the fourth quarter of 2009, and a $313,000 or 5.7% increase over
      the first quarter of 2009. Similarly, the Company's net interest margin
      expanded to 3.60% compared with 3.45% during the fourth quarter of 2009,
      and 3.28% during the first quarter of 2009. While the yields on the
      Company's interest-earning assets fell modestly since the first quarter
      of 2009, the cost of its interest bearing liabilities, mainly deposits,
      fell at a faster pace.
  --  The provision for loan losses was $961,000 during the quarter compared
      with $1,025,000 during the fourth quarter of 2009 and $665,000 during
      the first quarter of 2009. Because economic conditions in the
      Philadelphia region as they affect commercial real estate have remained
      soft, and certain of the Company's borrowers with delayed, unleased or
      unsold commercial real estate development projects have experienced
      financial difficulties, the Company has steadily increased its allowance
      for loan losses to $6,165,000 or 1.16% of loans at quarter end, a 39.3%
      increase over the $4,425,000 balance at March 31, 2009.
  --  Non-performing loans were $14,174,000 at quarter end compared with
      $8,285,000 at December 31, 2009. This increase was mainly caused by the
      delinquency of two loans with a combined balance of $5.9 million to a
      single borrower, secured by undeveloped commercial real estate.
      Foreclosed property at March 31, 2010 comprised three parcels of real
      estate with a combined carrying value of $1,150,000. Total
      non-performing assets were 2.14% of total assets compared with 1.34% at
      year end 2009.
  --  Loans outstanding were $531.1 million, a $4.8 million or 0.9% decrease
      during the quarter, reflecting repayments in the Company's construction
      loan portfolio and reduced consumer mortgage and home equity loan
      demand. Similarly, mortgage loans originated for sale were $6.1 million
      compared with $12.3 million during the first quarter of 2009.
  --  Deposit growth continued during the quarter. At quarter end, total
      deposits were $553.4 million, compared with $552.7 million at December
      31, 2009, and $504.5 million at March 31, 2009.




Commenting on the performance of the Company, President Kent C. Lufkin stated that, "We continue to see evidence that we are in a severe recessionary period. Many business and consumer customers are experiencing difficulty in this economy. As a result, we have seen an increase in our non-performing assets and criticized loans. We still have strong core earnings and have made substantial contributions to our loan loss reserve. We are working diligently to manage the problem loans within our portfolio. Those inevitable problems are counterbalanced by the overall excellent performance of our consumer loan portfolio, the continued growth and strength of our Retail Banking deposit gathering operation, the absence of problems in our investment portfolio, and the dedication and hard work of our seasoned, professional staff."
