See Phase 1.2, 3 studies, Sponsorship. .--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 26, 1996--1ST BANCORP today announced record earnings for the second quarter of fiscal year 1996 due to the previously announced sale of two branch offices. Net income was $4,582,000 during the three months ended December December: see month.  31, 1995 as compared with $922,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1994. 1ST BANCORP's six month earnings increased to $5,070,000 during the six months ended December 31, 1995 as compared with $1,115,000 for the same period of 1994.

"We are very pleased to report $7.18 earnings per share for the quarter and $7.94 for the six months ended December 31, 1995," stated C. James James, person in the Bible

 gain on the sale of the branches was $7,274,000. Because the deposits assumed by the new owner exceeded the assets transferred, the sale of securities was necessary in order to fund the branch sales. During December 1995, $26.0 million investment securities were sold at a loss of $235,000 and $12.9 million investment securities were sold at a gain of $112,000.

"This branch sale gain also availed the Corporation the opportunity to restructure and absorb substantial start up costs associated with the expansion of the mortgage loan offices during the quarter ended December 31, 1995," added Chairman McCormick. This accounted for the majority of the $226,000 increase in total non-interest expenses from $1,970,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1994 to $2,196,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1995.

Net interest income decreased to $1,601,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 1995 from $1,770,000 during the same quarter last year. Similarly, net interest income decreased to $3,269,000 during the first six months of fiscal 1996 as compared to $3,431,000 during the same time period of fiscal 1995. Decreased net interest income was realized primarily because of a narrowed interest rate margin. The interest rate margin dropped to 2.24% for the three and six month periods in fiscal 1996 as compared to 2.59% and 2.61% for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1994. Shrinking margins have been seen throughout the industry. However, this was exacerbated by the accumulation of cash throughout the quarter necessary to fund the branch sales on December 15, 1995. These funds were invested at overnight funds rates and therefore decreased the yield which could have been realized through alternative investments.

At December 31, 1995 assets were $248.5 million as compared to $312.8 million at June June: see month.  30, 1995. Stockholders' equity Stockholders' Equity

 rose to $21.4 million at December 31, 1995 as compared to $16.3 million at fiscal 1995 year end.
