SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heritage Commerce Corp (Nasdaq: HTBK), the holding company (the “Company”) for Heritage Bank of Commerce (the “Bank” or “HBC”), today reported record profits for both the fourth quarter of 2018 and the full year of 2018, boosted by positive operating leverage from the acquisitions made in the second quarter of 2018, lower federal income taxes, a strong net interest margin, and solid credit quality. Net income was $13.2 million, or $0.30 per average diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $1.3 million, or $0.03 per average diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2017, and $12.4 million, or $0.28 per average diluted common share for the third quarter of 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2018, net income was $35.3 million, or $0.84 per average diluted common share, compared to $23.8 million, or $0.62 per average diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2017.
The Company acquired Tri-Valley Bank (“Tri-Valley”) and United American Bank (“United American”) in the second quarter of 2018. Merger-related costs for the fourth quarter of 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2018 totaled $139,000 and $9.2 million, respectively, compared to $671,000 for both the fourth quarter of 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017. Earnings for both the fourth quarter of 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017 were also impacted by a $7.1 million income tax expense adjustment due to the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax assets (“DTA”). All results are unaudited.
“We generated excellent fourth quarter and full year 2018 financial results, fueled by an increase in net interest income of 25% for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, and 20% for the full year of 2018, compared to the full year of 2017. For the fourth quarter of 2018, we also experienced a strong net interest margin of 4.42%, a return on average tangible equity of 20.08%, and an improved efficiency ratio of 47.78%,” said Walter Kaczmarek, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The tax reform legislation enacted late last year has provided us with a lower corporate tax rate, which will continue to benefit us as we grow our franchise.”
“In 2018, total loans increased 19% and total deposits increased 6%, year-over-year,” added Mr. Kaczmarek. “Credit quality is sound with nonperforming assets declining substantially from the preceding quarter. A single large lending relationship paid down almost half of the outstanding loan balances which had been placed on nonaccrual, reducing the recorded investment of this lending relationship from $21.8 million at September 30, 2018 to $12.0 million at December 31, 2018. This lending relationship accounts for 81% of the nonperforming loans at December 31, 2018.”
2018 Highlights (as of, or for the periods ended December 31, 2018, compared to December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2018, except as noted):
Operating Results:
♦ Diluted earnings per share were $0.30 for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $0.03 for the fourth quarter of 2017, and $0.28 for the third quarter of 2018. Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.84 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $0.62 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2017.
♦ For the fourth quarter of 2018, the return on average tangible assets increased to 1.69%, and the return on average tangible equity increased to 20.08%, compared to 0.17% and 2.21%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2017, and 1.59% and 19.36%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2018. The return on average tangible assets was 1.19%, and the return on average tangible equity was 14.41%, for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 0.88% and 10.98%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2017.
♦ Net interest income, before provision for loan losses, increased 25% to $33.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $26.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, and increased 2% from $32.5 million for the third quarter of 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2018, net interest income increased 20% to $122.0 million, compared to $101.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.
• For the fourth quarter of 2018, the fully tax equivalent (“FTE”) net interest margin improved 55 basis points to 4.42% from 3.87% for the fourth quarter of 2017, and improved 6 basis points from 4.36% for the third quarter of 2018, primarily due to a higher average balance of loans, an increase in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions, and the impact of increases in the prime rate and the rate on overnight funds. The increase in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to the third quarter of 2018 also benefited from an increase in the average balance of securities.
• For the year ended December 31, 2018, the net interest margin increased 32 basis points to 4.31%, compared to 3.99% for the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to a higher average balance of loans and securities, an increase in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions, and the impact of increases in the prime rate and the rate on overnight funds.

- The average yield on the total loan portfolio increased to 5.87% for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 5.64% for the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to increases in the prime rate, and an increase in accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the acquisitions.
- The total purchase discount on loans from Focus Business Bank (“Focus”) loan portfolio was $5.4 million on the acquisition date of August 20, 2015, of which $657,000 remains outstanding as of December 31, 2018. The total purchase discount on loans from Tri-Valley loan portfolio was $2.6 million on the acquisition date of April 6, 2018, of which $2.2 million remains outstanding as of December 31, 2018. The total purchase discount on loans from United American loan portfolio was $4.7 million on the acquisition date of May 4, 2018, of which $3.6 million remains outstanding as of December 31, 2018.
♦ The cost of total deposits was 0.25% for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to 0.17% for the fourth quarter of 2017 and 0.23% for the third quarter of 2018. The total cost of deposits was 0.21% for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 0.17% for the year ended December 31, 2017.
♦ There was a $142,000 provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to a credit to the provision for loan losses of ($291,000) for the fourth quarter of 2017, and a credit to the provision for loan losses of ($425,000) for the third quarter of 2018. There was a $7.4 million provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to a provision for loan losses of $99,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to the year ended December 31, 2017, was primarily due to a single large lending relationship that was placed on nonaccrual during the second quarter of 2018.
♦ Total noninterest income decreased to $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily due to a lower gain on sales of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, a lower increase in cash surrender value of life insurance, and lower servicing income, partially offset by higher service charges and fees on deposit accounts. Noninterest income increased from $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2018, primarily due to higher termination fees at Bay View Funding and asset-based lending fees included in other noninterest income during the fourth quarter of 2018.
- For the year ended December 31, 2018, noninterest income remained relatively flat at $9.6 million, compared to the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company received $1.3 million in proceeds from a legal settlement during the second quarter of 2018, of which $377,000 was recorded in other noninterest income, and $922,000 was credited to professional fees for recaptured legal fees previously paid by the Company. The proceeds from a legal settlement during the second quarter of 2018, higher service charges and fees on deposit accounts and gain on sales of securities, were offset by a lower increase in cash surrender value of life insurance proceeds, servicing income, and gain on sale of SBA loans for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to the year ended December 31, 2017.
♦ Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $16.9 million, compared to $15.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2017 and $17.7 million the third quarter of 2018. Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $75.5 million, compared to $60.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase in noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to the year ended December 31, 2017, was primarily due to costs related to the merger transactions and higher salaries and employee benefits as a result of annual salary increases, and additional employees and operating costs of the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions, partially offset by lower professional fees. The decrease in noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to the third quarter of 2018, was primarily due to lower employee benefits expense.
- Professional fees decreased to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to the recovery of $922,000 of professional fees from a legal settlement in the second quarter of 2018.
- Full time equivalent employees were 302 at December 31, 2018, 278 at December 31, 2017, and 296 at September 30, 2018.
♦ The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2018 was 47.78%, compared to 52.82% for the fourth quarter of 2017, and 51.15% for the third quarter of 2018. The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 57.39%, compared to 54.65% for the year ended December 31, 2017.
♦ The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2017, which among other items reduced the federal corporate tax rate to 21% from 35%, effective January 1, 2018. The enactment of the Tax Act caused our net DTA to be revalued at the new lower tax rate with resulting tax effects accounted for in the reporting period of enactment. The Company performed an analysis and determined the value of the net DTA was reduced by $7.1 million, which was recognized as a one-time, non-cash, incremental income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2017.
- The income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $5.1 million, compared to income tax expense of $12.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, and an income tax expense of $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased to 28.0%, compared to 91.0% for the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily due to a lower federal corporate tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2018 and the $7.1 million DTA adjustment in the fourth quarter of 2017. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2018 was 28.7%.
- Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $13.3 million, compared to $26.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 27.4%, compared to 52.6% for the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to a lower federal corporate tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the $7.1 million DTA adjustment in the fourth quarter of 2017.
- The difference in the effective tax rate for the periods reported compared to the combined Federal and state statutory tax rate of 29.6% for the fourth quarter of 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2018, and 42% for the fourth quarter of 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017, is primarily the result of the Company’s investment in life insurance policies whose earnings are not subject to taxes, tax credits related to investments in low income housing limited partnerships (net of low income housing investment losses), and tax-exempt interest income earned on municipal bonds.
Balance Sheet Review, Capital Management and Credit Quality:
♦ Total assets increased 9% to $3.10 billion at December 31, 2018, compared to $2.84 billion at December 31, 2017, primarily due to the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions. As of December 31, 2018, Tri-Valley added $112.1 million in loans and $82.6 million in deposits. As of December 31, 2018, United American added $199.1 million in loans and $217.6 million in deposits. Total assets decreased 3% from $3.19 billion at September 30, 2018.
♦ Securities available-for-sale, at fair value, totaled $459.0 million at December 31, 2018, compared to $391.9 million at December 31, 2017, and $319.1 million at September 30, 2018. At December 31, 2018, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio was comprised of $302.9 million agency mortgage-backed securities (all issued by U.S. Government sponsored entities), $148.7 million U.S. Treasury, and $7.4 million U.S. Government sponsored entities debt securities. The pre-tax unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale at December 31, 2018 was ($7.7) million, compared to a pre-tax unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale of ($1.5) million at December 31, 2017, and a pre-tax unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale of ($12.7) million at September 30, 2018. All other factors remaining the same, when market interest rates are rising, the Company will experience a lower unrealized gain (or a higher unrealized loss) on the securities portfolio. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company purchased $147.6 million of US Treasury securities available-for-sale, with a weighted average book yield of 2.82%, and a weighted average duration of 2.25 years.
♦ At December 31, 2018, securities held-to-maturity, at amortized cost, totaled $377.2 million, compared to $398.3 million at December 31, 2017, and $375.7 million at September 30, 2018. At December 31, 2018, the Company’s securities held-to-maturity portfolio was comprised of $291.2 million agency mortgage-backed securities, and $86.0 million tax-exempt municipal bonds. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company purchased $14.6 million of agency mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity, with a weighted average book yield of 3.74%, and a weighted average duration of 6.58 years.

The Company had a $6.7 million specific loan loss reserve allocated for this lending relationship at December 31, 2018, compared to a $7.0 million specific loan loss reserve at September 30, 2018.
