INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01 – Other Events
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”), parent company of Orrstown Bank has completed the sale of sixty-five commercial real estate loans with a carrying balance of $28.6 million to a group of independent investors. This sale will result in an additional after-tax charge to earnings of $5.8 million that will be reflected in the earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Problem asset remediation is the Company’s highest priority and the sale of these distressed commercial loans allowed the Company to reduce its ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets by over 300 basis points. The sale of these classified loans is a major step in allowing the Company to strengthen its balance sheet as it lowers its classified assets and returns its asset quality ratios to more historical levels.
This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results and trends could differ materially from those set forth in such statements due to various risks, uncertainties and other factors. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and experience to differ from those projected include, but are not limited to, the following: ineffectiveness of the Company’s business strategy due to changes in current or future market conditions; the effects of competition, including industry consolidation and development of competing financial products and services; changes in laws and regulations, including the recent Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; interest rate movements; changes in credit quality; volatilities in the securities markets; and deteriorating economic conditions, and other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The statements are valid only as of the date hereof and Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. disclaims any obligation to update this information.
