First BanCorp., the bank holding company for FirstBank Puerto Rico, reported Wednesday net income of $15.9 million for the third quarter of 2013, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $122.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2013 and net income of $19.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012.
While it will be business-as-usual for the government and most private sector businesses, Puerto Rico banks will offer special hours today in observance of the Columbus Day holiday.
Five nonprofits — Casa de la Bondad, Centro de Enseñanza de la Familia, Enactus, JCI (Junior Chamber International) and Proyecto PECES — will benefit from the use of a building that FirstBank recently donated to the town of Humacao through its community reinvestment unit.
