Oneida Financial Q4 profit rises 8 percent

ONEIDA — Oneida Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: ONFC), parent company of The Oneida Savings Bank, reported that its fourth-quarter profit rose nearly 8 percent, primarily on the strength of revenue growth at its insurance and financial-services units.

Oneida Financial generated net income of just under $1.8 million in the quarter, up from $1.66 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

The banking company’s non-interest income totaled $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, up 7 percent from $6.6 million in the year-ago period. Growth was led by a 13.3 percent increase in commissions and fees on the sale of non-bank products at its insurance and financial-services subsidiaries, Bailey & Haskell Associates, Inc. and Benefit Consulting Group, Inc.

Net interest income edged up by $51,000 to $4.9 million in the fourth quarter compared to the year-prior period.

Oneida Financial’s net interest margin dipped to 3.36 percent in the latest quarter from 3.40 percent in the fourth quarter of 2011, as its yield on interest-earning assets slipped.

For all of 2012, Oneida Financial produced net income of $5.76 million, or 84 cents a share, up from $5.73 million, or 82 cents, in 2011.

The company finished 2012 with $681 million in total assets, up from $664 million a year earlier.

The Oneida Savings Bank, established in 1866, has 11 branch offices in Madison and Oneida counties. Oneida Financial also owns the State Bank of Chittenango.
