MEDELLIN, Colombia, Aug. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, BANCOLOMBIA S.A. ("Bancolombia" or "the Bank") (NYSE: CIB; BVC: BCOLOMBIA, PFBCOLOM) announced its earnings results for the second quarter of 2012.

For the quarter ended on June 30, 2012 ("2Q12"), Bancolombia reported consolidated net income of COP 354 billion, or COP 416 per share - USD 0.93 per ADR, which represents a decrease of 8% as compared to the results for the quarter ended on June 30, 2011 ("2Q11") and a decrease of 20% as compared to the results for the quarter ended on March 31, 2012 ("1Q12").

Bancolombia ended 2Q12 with COP 87,215 billion in assets, 4% higher than those at the end of 1Q12 and 16% greater than at the end of 2Q11. At the same time, liabilities totaled COP 76,499 billion, increasing 4% as compared to the figure presented in 1Q12 and increased 14% as compared to 2Q11[1].

  • Net interest income increased 19% compared to 2Q11 and 3% compared to 1Q12. These increases are the result of loan growth coupled with an expansion of the net interest margin, which ended the period at 6.2%.
  • Net loans increased 17% compared to 2Q11. This variation confirms the sustained loan demand in Colombia, although it already reflects some moderation in growth due to more stringent standards for granting loans.
  • Past due loans as a percentage of total loans continues being low. 30 days (or more) past due loans as a percentage of total gross loans was 3.0%. Loan deterioration during 2Q12 was COP 383 billion, and net provision charges for past due loans and foreclosed assets totaled COP 310 billion, which represents 2.0% of gross loans when annualized.    
  • The balance sheet remains strong. Loan loss reserves represented 4.9% of total gross loans and 163% of past due loans at the end of 2Q12. The capital adequacy ratio ended the quarter at 14.9% (Tier 1 of 11.6%).
