PAOLA, Kan., May 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Team Financial, Inc.
(the "Company", Nasdaq: TFIN) today announced net income of
$1,168,000, or $.32 basic and $.32 diluted income per share, for
the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of 29.9%,
compared to $899,000 or $.22 basic and diluted income per share,
for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Net interest income for
the three months ended March 31, 2007 increased approximately
$491,000, or 8.6%, from the same period last year, primarily due to
the increase in loans offset by a decrease in net interest margin
of 3 basis points. Non-interest income decreased approximately
$44,000, or 2.5% from the same three month period last year,
primarily due to a decrease in gain on sales of mortgage loans and
a decrease in service charges. Non-interest expense increased
$110,000, or 1.8%, during the three months ended March 31, 2007
from the same period last year, primarily due to an increase
associated with the preparation for the April 16th opening of a new
branch in Falcon, Colorado and increased professional fees. Loans
receivable increased approximately $17.7 million, or 3.6%, to
$504.2 million at March 31, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006.
This increase was primarily a result of an increase in construction
and land development loans. The provision for loan losses was
$230,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to
$275,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The allowance
for loan losses as a percent of loans was 1.16% at March 31, 2007
and 1.17% at December 31, 2006, and non-performing loans were 1.15%
of total loans at March 31, 2007 and 2.06% of total loans at
December 31, 2006. The substantial decrease in non-performing loans
during the first quarter of 2007 was attributable to the pay-off of
a group of loans of approximately $2.2 million that were delinquent
as of December 31, 2006. "Our $17.7 million in loan growth coupled
with an improvement in our loan portfolio quality during the first
quarter show that our continued focus on controlled growth has been
successful, and our nearly 30% increase in earnings over the same
period last year is reflecting that. We plan to continue our growth
and our expansion into high-growth markets throughout 2007 with the
opening of new branches. In connection with this new growth, our
new location in Falcon, Colorado opened on April 16, 2007 and we
will also open new branches in Ottawa, Kansas and Lees Summit,
Missouri this summer," said Robert J. Weatherbie, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Team Financial, Inc. On February 6,
2007, a complaint was filed by International Insurance Brokers, LTD
in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma
against the Company and certain officers of the Company, claiming
breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, fraud and
misrepresentation and civil conspiracy in connection with the sale
of the insurance agency subsidiary that was sold to International
Insurance Brokers effective December 31, 2004. Damages sought by
the defendants include not less than $10 million in actual damages,
not less than $10 million for consequential, and not less than $10
million for punitive damages. The Company believes the claims are
totally without merit, and it is pursuing a vigorous defense and
will also pursue available counterclaims against the plaintiff.
