DUNN, N.C., Aug. 1, 2014
DUNN, N.C., Aug. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Select Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company" NASDAQ: SLCT) reports net income for New Century Bancorp for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, of $613,000 and basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.09. For the same quarter in 2013, net income for New Century Bancorp was $1.26 million, and basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.18. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, net income for New Century was $885,000 compared to $2.1 million for the prior year period. Basic and fully diluted earnings per share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, were $0.13 and for the same period in 2013 were $0.30.
On July 25, 2014, New Century Bancorp acquired Select Bancorp, Inc. and assumed the name, Select Bancorp, Inc. on that date. The financial data reported here is solely the financial information of the entity formerly known as New Century Bancorp. Commencing in the third quarter of 2014, combined financial information of the former New Century and Select entities will be reported upon the July 25, 2014 closing of the merger.
Earnings for both the second quarter and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, for New Century Bancorp were impacted by expenses related to its acquisition of the former Greenville-based Select Bancorp, Inc. Total assets, deposits, and loans for New Century Bancorp as of June 30, 2014, were $508.3 million, $428.7 million, and $333.9 million, respectively.
After final approval by the shareholders of both companies and all federal and state regulatory agencies, the strategic merger, jointly announced on September 30, 2013, by New Century Bancorp and the former Greenville-based Select Bancorp, Inc. closed as of the close of business Friday, July 25, 2014.
"These positive earnings represent the final results we will report for the former New Century Bancorp," said William L. Hedgepeth II, president and CEO of Select Bancorp, Inc. and Select Bank & Trust Company. "The decision was made early in the merger process to take the name Select Bancorp, Inc. for our holding company and Select Bank & Trust Company for our community bank franchise following the merger.
"Second quarter 2014 was primarily focused on the many decisions that had to be made to merge the two companies and the two banks. During the same time period, the Company benefited from a loan loss recovery and saw noninterest expenses trend down on a linked quarter basis.
"Now, in third quarter, we are moving forward as one community bank, ready to serve our customers, to gain new customer relationships, and to offer great service and common sense banking."
Select Bancorp, Inc., headquartered in Dunn, North Carolina, is the holding company for Select Bank & Trust Company, a state chartered commercial bank insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Select Bank & Trust Company has 14 branch offices in the following North Carolina communities: Burlington, Clinton, Dunn, Elizabeth City, Fayetteville (2), Gibsonville, Goldsboro, Greenville (2), Lillington, Lumberton, Raleigh and Washington.
