BCSB Bancorp, Inc. Reports Earnings for the Quarter and Year Ended September 30, 2012

BALTIMORE, Oct. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BCSB Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: BCSB), the holding company for Baltimore County Savings Bank, reported net income of $1.8 million for the year ended September 30, 2012, as compared to net income of $116,000 for the year ended September 30, 2011. For comparison purposes, when consideration is given to dividends and discount accretion on preferred shares issued under the U.S. Treasury's TARP Capital Purchase Program, the Company reported net income available to common stockholders of $1.8 million or $0.58 per basic common share and $0.56 per diluted common share for the year ended September 30, 2012, compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $457,000 or ($0.15) per basic and diluted common share for the year ended September 30, 2011. The Company repaid TARP on January 26, 2011 and was required to accelerate accretion of the remaining discount on the preferred stock, thereby reducing net income available to common shareholders by approximately $310,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011. No preferred stock dividends have been paid and no discount accretion has been recorded during the twelve months ended September 30, 2012. The Company was able to repay TARP without raising additional capital, which would have been dilutive to shareholders.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $396,000, or $0.13 per basic common share and $0.12 per diluted common share, as compared to a net loss of $461,000 or ($0.15) per basic and diluted common share for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

During the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2012, earnings were favorably impacted by increases in net interest income, increases in non-interest income and reductions in loan loss provisions as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Non-interest expenses also decreased during the twelve months ended September 30, 2012 as compared with the same period in 2011 primarily due to successfully implemented expense reduction initiatives. The Company recorded Other Than Temporary Impairment ("OTTI") charges of $120,000 and $370,000 during the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and charges of $200,000 and $300,000 during the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. These charges relate to certain private label collateralized mortgage obligations in the Company's mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Non-interest expenses increased slightly during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared with the same period in the prior year primarily due to $150,000 in provision for losses on premises during the current year. This provision resulted from the consolidation of two branch facilities expected to be completed by calendar year end.

President and Chief Executive Officer Joseph J. Bouffard commented, "We are pleased to report earnings of $1.8 million during our 2012 fiscal year despite ongoing economic challenges. During the year, notable progress has been made toward achieving several important goals. As a result, certain key components of operating results have improved, including increases in net interest income and non-interest income, along with decreases in operating expenses and loan loss provisions. There have also been encouraging trends related to asset quality, with reductions in charge-offs, nonaccrual loans and loan loss provisions. We remain focused on strengthening the Company and enhancing shareholder value."

(1)Tangible book value provides a measure of tangible equity on a per share basis. It is determined by methods other than in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and, as such, is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes the presentation of Tangible book value per common share is meaningful supplemental information for shareholders. We calculate Tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as of period end.
