- Total assets increased $39.7 million, or 3.4%, to $1.21 billion at March 31, 2016, rising from $1.17 billion at December 31, 2015, and up $165.4 million, or 15.9%, compared with $1.04 billion at March 31, 2015. The growth in assets was due primarily to higher loans compared with prior quarters.
- Loans held for investment increased $111.7 million, or 13.2%, to a record $957.5 million at March 31, 2016, compared with $845.8 million at December 31, 2015, and were up $241.2 million from $716.3 million at March 31, 2015, for a year-over-year growth rate of 33.7%. First quarter loan growth benefited from increased demand for Commercial & Industrial loans, and Commercial Real Estate loans. Mortgage loans held-for-sale were $4.6 million compared with $19.4 million at December 31, 2015, and $33.5 million at March 31, 2015. The decrease in mortgage loans held-for-sale was due partially to an increase in bulk sale of mortgage loans compared with prior quarters.
- Cash surrender value of company owned life insurance rose to $25.9 million at March 31, 2016, up from $25.7 million at December 31, 2015, and $20.2 million at March 31, 2015.
- Deposits totaled $966.5 million at March 31, 2016, compared with $969.6 million at December 31, 2015. Deposits grew $150.6 million, or 18.5%, compared with $815.9 million at March 31, 2015.

- For the first quarter of 2016, net income available to common stockholders totaled $1.41 million compared with $1.42 million in the first quarter of 2015. The decrease was attributable primarily to $801 thousand (approximately $0.05 per diluted share on a tax equivalent basis) in legal and accounting fees related to the proposed acquisition by Pinnacle Financial Partners and a higher provision for loan losses that reflected the growth in loan volume, offset partially by growth in loan volume that benefited net interest income, and higher loan sales, including SBA loans that boosted non-interest income. Diluted net income per share was $0.14 in the first quarter of 2016, compared with $0.15 per share the first quarter of 2015. Average diluted shares outstanding rose 9.6% to 10.3 million at March 31, 2016, compared with 9.4 million at March 31, 2015 attributable to Avenue Financial’s initial public stock offering in February 2015.
- Net interest income increased 3.1% to $9.01 million for the first quarter of 2016, compared with $8.74 million for the first quarter of 2015 and was attributable primarily to growth in loans, offset partially by higher deposit costs.
- Growth in average non-interest bearing demand deposits since last year contributed to the 8 basis point increase in the tax equivalent net interest margin that rose to 3.28% in the first quarter of 2016 from 3.20% in the first quarter of 2015. Net interest margin was down 2 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2015, primarily due to higher cost of CDs that were rolled over after the recent rate increase.
- Non-interest income rose 52.0% to a record $1.91 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared with $1.26 million in the first quarter of 2015. The growth in non-interest income benefited from an 11.8% increase in customer service fees to $751 thousand, a 29.4% increase in cash surrender value of life insurance to $185 thousand, and a 46.3% increase in mortgage banking fees to $300 thousand. Net gains on mortgage loan sales increased to $256 thousand compared with $236 thousand in the first quarter of 2015. Net gains on SBA loan sales rose to $189 thousand in the first quarter of 2016, compared with no gains in the first quarter of 2015. Net gain on sale of securities totaled $228 thousand in the first quarter of 2016 with no comparable securities gains in the first quarter of 2015. The proceeds from the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2016 were used to fund, in part, the growth in new loans generated during the quarter.
- The provision for loan losses rose to $774 thousand in the first quarter of 2016, compared with $154 thousand for the first quarter of 2015. The increase in the provision for loan losses reflected the record loan growth in the first quarter of 2016.
- Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2016 increased $968 thousand, or 13.8%, to $8.01 million from $7.04 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, and increased $1.6 million from the first quarter of 2015. Approximately $801 thousand of legal and accounting fees in the first quarter of 2016 were related to the pending acquisition of Avenue Financial by Pinnacle Financial Partners. In addition, the increase in salaries and employee benefits was due to increased headcount added late in the fourth quarter of 2015 and early in the first quarter of 2016.

- Asset quality improved in the first quarter compared with the first quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2015 as measured by reductions in non-performing assets to total assets and other real estate owned. Total non-performing assets declined 36.3% to $673 thousand and total other real estate owned declined 52.8% to $240 thousand at March 31, 2016, compared with December 31, 2015. Nonaccruing loans declined 21.3% to $433 thousand compared with $550 thousand the prior quarter. Our ratio of non-performing assets (nonaccruing loans plus other real estate owned and loans 90 days past due and still accruing) to total assets decreased to 0.06% at March 31, 2016, compared with 0.09% at December 31, 2015, and 0.35% at March 31, 2015 due primarily to a decrease in other real estate owned and growth in total assets.
- Net loan recoveries for the first quarter of 2016 were $54 thousand compared with net loan recoveries of $23 thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, and net loan charge-offs of $2 thousand, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. There were no past due loans still accruing greater than 90 days at March 31, 2016.
- The allowance for loan losses was $10.89 million, or 1.14% of loans, at March 31, 2016, compared with $10.06 million, or 1.19% of loans, at December 31, 2015, and $8.67 million, or 1.21% of loans, at March 31, 2015. The decrease in the allowance percentage to loans since last year was due primarily to the general improvement in the underlying credit quality of the loan portfolio and qualitative factor adjustments reflecting the improved economy.
