, compared with second quarter 1994 net income of $8.2 million, or 18 cents per share.

The improved quarterly results reflected an 11 percent increase in average loans and leases, higher net interest income and the absence of any credit loss provision. In the prior year period, the company recorded a $3.0 million credit loss provision.

For the six months ended June 30, 1995, net income rose to $22.2 million, or 48 cents per share, which includes the benefit of a zero credit loss provision.

For the prior year six-month period, the company reported net income of $16.9 million, or 37 cents per share, which included a $6.0 million credit loss provision offset by gains on sales of assets and ORE of $1.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

For the six months of 1995, return on average assets improved to 1.65 percent from 1.20 percent, while the return on average equity rose to 13.12 percent from 11.15 percent in the prior year period.

"City National's continued earnings growth is further demonstration of our commitment to re-establishing the bank as a vital and major presence in its market. This accomplishment is particularly noteworthy in view of the competitive Southern California Southern California, also colloquially known as SoCal, is the southern portion of the U.S. state of California.

Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis rose to $41.0 million in the second quarter of 1995, compared with $35.7 million in the prior year's quarter.

Second quarter 1995 average loan balances increased 11 percent over the prior year period, due mainly to a $287.4 million increase in average residential first mortgage loan balances, and $33.8 million in construction lending.

The second quarter net interest margin rose to 6.39 percent from 5.52 percent a year earlier, while the six-month net interest margin was 6.38 percent, compared with 5.28 percent in the 1994 period.

For the second consecutive quarter, loan loss recoveries exceeded loan charge offs. Loan loss recoveries in the second quarter were $6.3 million, compared with loan charge offs of $5.7 million. The company recorded a zero credit loss provision for the quarter, as a result of net recoveries, decreases in nonaccrual loans, and a greater concentration in the loan portfolio of residential first mortgages (which generally contain lower loss exposure).

The 1994 second quarter's provision and net charge offs were $3.0 million and $9.1 million, respectively. The zero provision for credit losses in the 1995 six-month period reflected loan loss recoveries of $12.3 million, which were partially offset by loan charge offs of $8.6 million. In the corresponding period of the prior year, the credit loss provision was $6.0 million, with loan charge offs of $26.3 million offset by loan recoveries of $15.2 million.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 1995, excluding gains and losses on the sales of securities was $8.5 million, down from $8.9 million in the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 1995, noninterest income totaled $16.7 million, a decrease from last year's total of $17.9 million. These decreases were primarily due to the reduction in service fee income on deposit accounts of $0.5 million between the respective second quarters and $1.4 million between the six-month periods.

The company sold securities during the second quarter for a gain of $0.3 million. Including a similar gain from securities sales in the first quarter, the total six-month gain was $0.6 million.

Noninterest expense, excluding ORE results, was $30.2 million in the second quarter of 1995 compared with $29.4 million in the 1994 period.

For the six months of 1995, noninterest expense excluding ORE results was $59.8 million compared with $60.0 million in the 1994 period.

ORE expense for the second quarter of 1995 was $0.1 million compared with income of $.8 million in the year-earlier period. For the six months of 1995, ORE activity generated expense of $0.2 million, compared with income in the prior year of $5.3 million, a significant portion of which was related to the company's completion of its Accelerated Asset Disposition Act of disposing; transferring to the care or possession of another.
