Macatawa Bank Corporation Revises 2nd Quarter Results
HOLLAND, Mich., Aug. 10, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Macatawa Bank Corporation (Nasdaq:MCBC) today announced that it has filed its Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For the second quarter of 2009, the Company revised its results compared to those announced in a press release on July 20, 2009. This revision arises from additional provisions for loan losses due to real estate appraisals of collateral for certain loans received by the Company between the July 20, 2009 release and the date of filing the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. As required by accounting principles, the Company has recorded this charge against earnings and revised the financial statements included with the press release of July 20, 2009.
The Company reported a net loss of $30.4 million in the Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2009 as compared to a loss of $18.6 in its press release of July 20, 2009. For the first six months of 2009, the Company reported a net loss of $34.5 million in the Form 10-Q as compared to a net loss of $22.7 million in its press release of July 20, 2009.
Ronald L. Haan, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Macatawa Bank Corporation stated, "Subsequent to issuing our press release on July 20, 2009, we received additional appraisals and other information that required us to make adjustments to the provision for loan losses. Accounting principles require that values of certain assets be marked to an exit price as if it was sold on the date of the report. In the current rapidly changing real estate market, valuation estimates are difficult, yet continue to reflect declines in value. The additional provisions for loan losses are unrealized losses that are management's best estimate of the inherent probable losses in the portfolio. Actual losses will ultimately be determined by future events that will likely be linked to the future condition of the general economy and real estate markets."
Shareholders' equity at quarter end, June 30, 2009 was $116.6 million. The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Macatawa Bank, continue to maintain capital levels in excess of regulatory minimums for well capitalized bank holding companies and banks.
Following are revised key asset quality measures as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as reported in the Form 10-Q filed today as compared to the measures announced in the press release dated July 20, 2009.
