Bay National Corporation (NASDAQ:BAYN), the bank holding company for Bay National Bank, today reported a fourth quarter net loss of $11,695,000 or ($5.43) per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $1,023,000 or $0.48 per diluted share reported for the quarter ending December 31, 2008. The primary contributors to the net loss for the quarter were the provision for credit losses taken during the quarter and a write-down in the carrying value of a deferred tax asset.
“The ‘elephant in the room’ is concern over the extent of future loan losses,” commented Hugh W. Mohler, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Therefore, we took an aggressive stance by increasing our loan loss reserve by $5,272,000 and charging off $1,444,000 (net of recoveries) in the fourth quarter of 2009. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2009 were principally in the real estate sector, including consumer residential construction, commercial real estate and other commercial categories.”
