It is situated at the northern most point of the Madrie Plateau and is located at an altitude of 124 meters above sea level. , President and Chief Executive Officer, noted: "At over $860 million in total assets, Benjamin Franklin is now one of the largest public banks headquartered in the Boston Boston, town, England Boston, town (1991 pop. 26,495), E central England, on the Witham River. Boston's fame as a port dates from the 13th cent., when it was a Hanseatic port trading wool and wine. Having recovered from a decline in the 18th and 19th cent. west-suburban market. We have effectively deployed a significant portion of our new capital with the acquisition of Chart Bank, but still have the resources necessary to carry out our growth strategy, which is focused on building core deposits and lending relationships. " The acquisition of Chart Bank added $260.4 million to the Company's total assets. Of that amount, the largest components were loans ($185.0 million, net), securities ($39.9 million) and cash deployed by CSSI CSSI Critical Skills Shortage Initiative CSSI California Strategic Sourcing Initiative CSSI Computer Support Services, Inc. (Irving, TX, USA) CSSI Computer Security Subsystem Interpretation CSSI Computer Software & Services Industry , the Bank's ATM servicing subsidiary ($28.9 million). Funding liabilities added as a result of the acquisition included deposits totaling $216.9 million and borrowed funds of $25.5 million. The integration of former Chart customers into Benjamin Franklin's operations, including data processing data processing or information processing, operations (e.g., handling, merging, sorting, and computing) performed upon data in accordance with strictly defined procedures, such as recording and summarizing the financial transactions of a systems conversions, was accomplished during the second quarter. In addition to the loans added by the Chart acquisition, the Company's loan portfolio grew by $29.1 million in the second quarter, $21.5 million of that in commercial real estate loans. As of June 30, 2005, net loans represented 70.4% of total assets, and commercial loans in particular (including commercial real estate, construction and commercial business loans) represented 44.5% of total loans, compared to 30.9% at December December: see month. 31, 2004. The Company is committed to expanding its commercial lending business, and to that end has increased the size of its commercial lending staff to twelve at present, compared to four at year-end year-end also year·end n. The end of a year. adj. Occurring or done at the end of the year: a year-end audit. Noun 1. 2004. Commercial credit analysis and processing resources have also been increased to support this effort. With the addition of Chart Bank, the Company's deposits have grown to $628.8 million as of June 30, 2005, with 59.7% of that total in core deposit accounts. Borrowed funds have increased by $11.4 million during the quarter, over and above the $25.5 million in borrowed funds assumed in the Chart Bank acquisition. The Company's net interest margin ("NIM nim 1 tr. & intr.v. nimmed, nim·ming, nims Archaic To steal; pilfer. [Middle English nimen, to take, from Old English niman; see "), at 3.26% for the three months ended June 30, 2005, has benefited from the increase in higher-yielding commercial loans, as well as from the wider NIM provided by Chart's balance sheet, which was more heavily invested in commercial assets than that of Benjamin Franklin. Asset quality remains strong at the close of the second quarter, with non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets at .04% as of June 30, 2005. The allowance for loan losses stood at .91% of total loans at quarter end, representing 1,592.1% of non-performing loans A non-performing loan is a loan that is in default or close to being in default. Many loans become non-performing after being in default for 3 months, but this can depend on the contract terms. on that date. Non-interest income for the second quarter was significantly affected by the $1.0 million net loss recognized on bank-owned land. Two parcels of land that had been held as future branch sites were sold during the quarter for an aggregate gain of $380,000. A third parcel that had been held as a future branch site was written down by $1.4 million to estimated fair market value, once the decision was made to market the parcel for sale. Although the Company's current strategy contemplates the opening of several new branches over the next few years, in all likelihood future branch locations will be leased rather than owned. Non-interest income for the quarter also reflects the addition of deposit and loan fees associated with former Chart Bank accounts, as well as fee revenue generated by CSSI, the Bank's ATM servicing subsidiary. For the quarter, those ATM fees amounted to approximately ap·prox·i·mate adj. 1. Almost exact or correct: the approximate time of the accident. 2. $380,000. The Company's efficiency ratio for the quarter (excluding the Foundation contribution, amortization of the core deposit intangible, and the net loss recognized on bank-owned land) improved to 62.7% from 83.0% in the year earlier period. Although operating expenses Operating expenses The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted. have increased in order to support the Company's lending growth, the leverage to the Company's existing expense structure provided by the Chart Bank acquisition more than offset these expense increases. At its regularly scheduled meeting on July July: see month. 27, 2005, the Board of Directors intends to consider a policy of paying dividends on the Company's common stock. At this time, no decision has been made with respect to whether or when the payment of dividends may occur.
