SANTA PAULA, Calif.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Santa Clara Valley Bank (SCVBank) (OTCBB: SCVE) today announced its 2011 third quarter results (unaudited, except where noted).

"We attribute this reduction in charge offs to the hard work of our loan staff to improve the overall quality of our loan portfolio."

SCVBank recorded a net profit of $140,000 for the third quarter of 2011 compared to a net profit of $60,000 for the third quarter of 2010. Net profit for the nine month period ending September 30, 2011 was $384,000 versus a net loss of $(346,000) for the same nine month period in 2010. This improvement in earnings was largely due to the reduction in the provision for loan loss expense. Due to improved credit conditions there was no loan loss provision taken in the first nine months of 2011, compared to a $900,000 provision taken in 2011 during the same period.

Net loan charge-offs for the first nine months of 2011 totaled $279,000 as compared to $1,585,000 for the same nine month period in 2010. Interim CEO and Chairman of the Board Ralph De Leon noted, aWe attribute this reduction in charge offs to the hard work of our loan staff to improve the overall quality of our loan portfolio.a

SCVBank continues to maintain a strong capital position with a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 11.00%, up from 9.09% a year ago. Total risk-based capital is 19.03%, up from 14.81% last September.

Liquidity continues to be very strong as cash and investments total $55,345,000, or 42.67% of total assets at quarter end.
