On May 31, 2012, the Corporation and its insurance subsidiary, Univest Insurance, Inc., completed the acquisition of the Javers Group, a full-service employee benefits agency that specializes in comprehensive human resource management, payroll and administrative services to businesses with 50 to 1,000 employees. The acquisition expands the Corporation's insurance and employee benefits business and further diversifies its solutions to include human resource consulting services and technology. The Corporation paid $3.2 million in cash at closing with additional contingent consideration to be paid in annual installments over the three-year period ended June 30, 2015 based on the achievement of certain levels of revenue. As of the acquisition date, the Corporation recorded the estimated fair value of the contingent payments of $842 thousand as additional goodwill and the liability is included in other liabilities. The potential cash payments that could result from the contingent consideration arrangement range from $0 thousand to a maximum of $1.7 million over the next three years. As a result of the Javers Group acquisition, the Corporation recorded goodwill of $3.1 million (inclusive of contingent consideration) and customer related intangibles of $989 thousand.
Details of the changes in the various components of net income and the balance sheet are further discussed in the sections that follow.
The Corporation earns its revenues primarily from the margins and fees it generates from loans and leases and depository services it provides as well as from trust fees and insurance and investment commissions. The Corporation seeks to achieve adequate and reliable earnings by growing its business while maintaining adequate levels of capital and liquidity and limiting its exposure to credit and interest rate risk to Board of Directors approved levels. As interest rates increase, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to decrease in value; conversely, as interest rates decline, fixed-rate assets that banks hold will tend to increase in value. The Corporation is in a more asset sensitive position; although interest rates are expected to remain low for the foreseeable future, it anticipates increasing interest rates over the longer term, which it expects would benefit its net interest margin.
The Corporation seeks to establish itself as the financial provider of choice in the markets it serves. It plans to achieve this goal by offering a broad range of high quality financial products and services and by increasing market awareness of its brand and the benefits that can be derived from its products. The Corporation operates in an attractive market for financial services but also is in intense competition with domestic and international banking organizations and other insurance and investment providers for the financial services business. The Corporation has taken initiatives to achieve its business objectives by acquiring banks and other financial service providers in strategic markets, through marketing, public relations and advertising, by establishing standards of service excellence for its customers, and by using technology to ensure that the needs of its customers are understood and satisfied.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on loans and leases, investments and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the principal source of the Corporation's revenue. Table 1 presents a summary of the Corporation's average balances, the tax-equivalent yields earned on average assets, and the cost of average liabilities, and shareholders' equity on a tax-equivalent basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. The tax-equivalent net interest margin is tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The tax-equivalent net interest spread represents the difference between the weighted average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of net interest free funding sources represents the effect on the net interest margin of net funding provided by noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders' equity. Table 2 analyzes the changes in the tax-equivalent net interest income for the periods broken down by their rate and volume components. Sensitivities associated with the mix of assets and liabilities are numerous and complex. The Investment Asset/Liability Management Committee works to maintain an adequate and stable net interest margin for the Corporation.
Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $654 thousand, or 3% compared to the same period in 2011. The tax-equivalent net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased 31 basis points to 3.84% from 4.15% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $2.1 million, or 3% compared to the same period in 2011. The tax-equivalent net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased 29 basis points to 3.92% from 4.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The declines in net interest income and the net interest margin were primarily due to the re-investment of maturing and called investment securities with lower yielding investments, as a result of the lower interest rate environment and lower rates on commercial loans (including real estate loans) due to re-pricing and competitive pressures. The decline in net interest income and net interest margin was partially offset by re-pricing of certificates of deposits and savings account products. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Corporation increased its investments in government agencies, treasuries and corporate bonds with longer duration maturities as interest rate protection in the prolonged low rate interest environment.
