Territorial Bancorp Inc. reported unaudited consolidated earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2016. For the quarter, the company reported total interest income of $16.481 million against $16.223 million a year ago. The $258,000 growth in interest income was primarily due to a $966,000 increase in interest earned on loans which resulted primarily from the $147.34 million increase in loans receivable. The increase in interest income on loans was offset by a $734,000 decline in interest income from investment securities due to an $85.40 million decrease in investment securities portfolio that occurred as repayments and sales exceeded securities purchased. Net interest income was $14.428 million against $14.408 million a year ago. Income before income taxes was $7.221 million against $6.162 million a year ago. Net income was $4.362 million or $0.46 per diluted share against $3.699 million or $0.40 per diluted share a year ago. Return on average assets was 0.93% against 0.81% a year ago. Return on average equity was 7.52% against 6.71% a year ago. Book value per share was $23.50 against $22.74 a year ago.
For the year, the company reported total interest income of $66.073 million against $63.092 million a year ago. Net interest income was $58.229 million against $56.577 million a year ago. Income before income taxes was $27.134 million against $24.534 million a year ago. Net income was $16.347 million or $1.76 per diluted share against $14.748 million or $1.59 per diluted share a year ago. The growth in net income can be attributed primarily to higher net interest income and lower noninterest expense which was partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income and an increase in income taxes. Interest income on loans grew by $5.27 million, or 11.47%, to $51.17 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily because of a $147.34 million increase in the loan portfolio. This increase was offset by a reduction of $2.51 million in interest earned on investment securities which occurred due to an $85.40 million reduction in investment securities as security repayments and sales exceeded purchases.
