Heritage Southeast Bancorporation, Inc. (OTCQX: HSBI) ("HSBI") today reported net income of $2.7 million or $0.37 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2019. In September 2019, HSBI completed the previously announced merger with two other Georgia based financial institutions (Heritage Bancorporation, Inc., Hinesville and Providence Bank, Alpharetta). The financial information only includes the results from these acquired entities from the acquisition date. For the year ended December 31, 2019, net income was $989,000, which was negatively impacted by merger related costs primarily recognized in the third quarter.
Commenting on the announcement, Leonard Moreland, Chief Executive Officer of HSBI, said, "We are pleased with our first full quarter results under the newly formed entity. The team performed well in the period and we believe there is significant opportunity for organic growth within our footprint. The company is positioned to take advantage of these opportunities with the goal of continuing to increase market share and strengthen the communities we serve. We now look forward to 2020, the consolidation of our core systems, recognizing additional backroom efficiencies and enhancing the customer experience."
