PacWest Bancorp Announces Results for the First Quarter 2016


Highlights

  • Net Earnings of $90.5 Million, or $0.74 Per Diluted Share
  • New Loan and Lease Production of $842.1 Million for the Quarter
  • Core Deposits Increased $399 Million during the Quarter and Represented 71% of Total Deposits
  • Core Tax Equivalent Net Interest Margin of 5.10%

LOS ANGELES, April 14, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PacWest Bancorp (Nasdaq:PACW) today announced net earnings for the first quarter of 2016 of $90.5 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2015 of $71.8 million, or $0.60 per diluted share. The $0.14 increase in diluted earnings per share was due mostly to higher accretion on acquired loans and leases ($0.06 per share), higher noninterest income from higher gain on securities and lower dividends and gains on equity investments ($0.02 per share), and lower acquisition, integration and reorganization costs ($0.09 per share), and a higher provision for credit losses ($0.03 per share) as compared to the fourth quarter of 2015.

Matt Wagner, President and CEO, commented, “We continued to deliver outstanding performance in the first quarter and demonstrate our earning power despite competitive and market challenges. Our strong first quarter results produced a return on assets of 1.72%, a return on tangible equity of 16.45% and a quarter over quarter 23% increase in diluted earnings per share. We are also pleased with the continued transformation of our deposit portfolio as core deposits were 71% of total deposits compared to 52% a year ago. With flat net loan growth for the first quarter due to the sale of Pacific Western Equipment Finance unit leases, we expect mid to upper single digit loan growth for the year.”

Patrick Rusnak, Executive Vice President and CFO stated, “Our first quarter core tax equivalent net interest margin (NIM) remained steady at 5.10% and the NIM excluding all purchase accounting items increased 5 basis points to 4.93%. The first quarter NIM was helped by the combination of the 25 basis point rate hike in December and higher-yielding assets were a higher percentage of average interest-earning assets.”

Mr. Rusnak continued, “We continue to control operating expenses as shown by our efficiency ratio, which declined to 38.5% in the first quarter. We are pleased with our solid start to 2016 and believe our talented teams will continue to deliver strong results.”

Mr. Wagner continued, “Now that we have completed the integration of the Square 1 Bank employees and business units, we are focused on two important corporate initiatives for 2016. We will be converting our core processing systems beginning in the second quarter. Also, later this year, we will submit our first DFAST capital stress test to our regulators.”

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased by $15.4 million to $244.6 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $229.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 due to higher accretion on acquired loans and a higher average loan and lease balance offset by a lower average investment securities balance. Total accretion on acquired loans was $27.9 million in the first quarter of 2016 (77 basis points on the loan and lease yield) compared to $16.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 (46 basis points on the loan and lease yield). The increase in accretion was due primarily to higher accelerated accretion from payoffs on acquired loans, including $12.1 million from the payoff of a nonaccrual purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loan. The loan and lease yield for the first quarter of 2016 was 6.57% compared to 6.21% for the fourth quarter of 2015. The increase in the loan and lease yield was due to the higher accretion on acquired loans offset by the yield on new originations being lower than the current portfolio yield. Excluding accelerated accretion, the core loan and lease yield was 6.03% in the first quarter compared to 6.05% in the fourth quarter.

The tax equivalent net interest margin (“NIM”) for the first quarter of 2016 was 5.53% compared to 5.22% for the fourth quarter of 2015. The increase in the NIM was due to higher accretion on acquired loans and a higher percentage of average higher-yielding assets in the mix. Accretion on acquired loans contributed 62 basis points to the NIM in the first quarter of 2016 and 36 basis points to the NIM in the fourth quarter of 2015. Excluding accelerated accretion, the core NIM was 5.10% for both the first and fourth quarters.    

The cost of total deposits decreased to 0.23% in the first quarter of 2016 from 0.24% in the fourth quarter of 2015 due to the increased average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits and a lower level of higher-cost time deposits.

The tax equivalent NIM and loan and lease yield are impacted by volatility in accelerated accretion of acquisition discounts due to the prepayment of acquired loans and leases. The effects of this item are shown in the following table for the periods indicated:

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased by $6.5 million to $34.5 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $28.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 due mostly to higher gains on sales of securities of $8.1 million and lower FDIC loss sharing expense of $1.9 million, offset by lower dividends and gains on equity investments of $4.6 million. The gain on securities resulted from the sale of $335 million of securities in the first quarter due to ongoing portfolio management activities. The lower FDIC loss sharing expense is due to a fewer number and decreased balance of covered assets combined with fewer asset resolutions this quarter compared to the previous quarter. Dividends and gains from equity investments decreased as this item fluctuates from period to period based upon dividends received and number of sales of equity investments. Other income in the first quarter included a loan syndication fee ($0.9 million), a death benefit received on a BOLI policy ($0.6 million) and a loss on the sale of the Pacific Western Equipment Finance (“PWEF”) leasing unit ($0.7 million); there are no similar items in the other periods presented.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense decreased by $11.6 million to $110.7 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $122.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. The decrease was due mostly to lower acquisition, integration and reorganization costs of $17.4 million offset by lower foreclosed assets income and higher compensation expense. Foreclosed assets income is lower by $2.6 million due to lower gains on foreclosed asset sales compared to the prior quarter. Compensation expense increased $2.1 million due to higher payroll taxes from the timing of the annual employment tax cycle and higher stock-based compensation due to awards granted in the first quarter offset partially by lower commission and incentive expense.

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

Loans and Leases

Average total loans and leases for the first quarter of 2016 increased by $440 million compared to the fourth quarter while period-end total loans and leases increased by $5.3 million in the first quarter to $14.5 billion at March 31, 2016. The loan and lease production of $842 million was largely offset by repayment activity and the sale of the PWEF leases.

Credit Exposure Affected by Low Oil Prices

At March 31, 2016, PacWest had 19 outstanding loan and lease relationships totaling $127.7 million to borrowers involved in the oil and gas services industry, down from $137.3 million at December 31, 2015. The collateral for this credit exposure includes primarily equipment, such as drilling equipment and transportation vehicles. The reserves related to this credit exposure total approximately 15%. At March 31, 2016, three relationships totaling $45.5 million were on nonaccrual status and were classified, down from $47.1 million at December 31, 2015. The largest of these relationships had an aggregate outstanding balance of $39.9 million at March 31, 2016.

In addition to deposit products, we also offer alternative non-depository cash investment options for select clients, including investments managed by Square 1 Asset Management, Inc. (“S1AM”) our registered investment advisor subsidiary and third-party sweep products. Total client investment funds at March 31, 2016 were $1.6 billion, of which $1.3 billion was managed by S1AM. Approximately $184 million of client investment funds were shifted into on-balance sheet deposit products during the first quarter of 2016.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

A provision for credit losses of $20.1 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $13.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. The first quarter provision related almost entirely to Non-PCI loans and leases and increased due in part to additions to our oil and gas portfolio reserves. The allowance for Non-PCI credit losses to Non-PCI loans and leases coverage ratio increased to 0.96% at March 31, 2016 from 0.85% at December 31, 2015.

(1) Allowance attributed to $5.5 billion and $6.0 billion of acquired Non-PCI loans at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, based on the allowance calculation that includes an amount for credit deterioration on acquired loans and leases since their acquisition dates. 
(2) Unamortized net discount relates to $5.5 billion and $6.0 billion of acquired Non-PCI loans at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and is assigned specifically to those loans only.  Such discount represents the acquisition date fair value adjustment based on market, liquidity, interest rate risk and credit risk and is being accreted to interest income over the remaining life of the respective loans using the interest method.  Use of the interest method results in steadily declining amounts being taken into income in each reporting period.  The remaining discount of $78.8 million at March 31, 2016, is expected to be substantially accreted to income by the end of 2018.  
  

Non-PCI loans and leases at March 31, 2016 included $8.9 billion of originated loans and leases that were not obtained through acquisitions. The related allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $90.5 million, or 1.02% of the outstanding balance.
