LOS ANGELES, Oct. 19, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BBCN Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:BBCN), the holding company of BBCN Bank (the "Bank"), today reported strong financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Net income for the 2015 third quarter totaled a record $25.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted common share, reflecting a 9% increase over $22.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, for the preceding 2015 second quarter and a 17% increase over $21.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted common share, for the year-ago third quarter.

"We are very pleased to report record financial results for our 2015 third quarter, highlighted by the highest levels of new loan volumes and earnings in our history," said Kevin S. Kim, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BBCN Bancorp, Inc. "During the quarter, we experienced robust loan demand and posted $432 million in new loan originations, which represents a 13% increase over the prior-year third quarter. The quarter's results also benefited by continued progress with credit recoveries, which offset our provision requirements for the strong loan growth during the quarter. Notwithstanding the continuing investments to strengthen our overall infrastructure and transform BBCN into a more diversified financial institution, disciplined cost management also contributed to record earnings for the quarter.

"With a growing pipeline of loans, we have strong momentum heading into the final quarter of 2015. As we approach the fourth anniversary of BBCN's creation, we look forward to expanding our presence in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area with a second branch on track to open later this year. Supported by strong and consistent financial performance and steady execution of our strategic initiatives, we believe BBCN is well positioned to enhance the value proposition to our customers, employees and shareholders as the premier Korean-American bank in the United States," said Kim.

Operating Results for the 2015 Third Quarter

The comparability of BBCN's operating results with past performance is impacted by acquisition accounting adjustments related to past acquisitions. The Company provides the following supplemental information to facilitate a better understanding of financial performance. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2015, June 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014 include the following pre-tax acquisition accounting adjustments related to past acquisitions:

Total $ 4,307 $ 4,311 $ 6,199

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin. Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the 2015 third quarter totaled $68.8 million, up 2% over $67.4 million in the preceding 2015 second quarter, and up 1% over $67.9 million in the year-ago third quarter. Largely reflecting the steady organic growth in loans receivable, the Company posted higher interest income on earning assets versus the comparable periods, which more than offset the diminishing acquisition accounting adjustments and impact of declining yields on interest earning assets.

The net interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest earning assets) and the impact of acquisition accounting adjustments are summarized in the following table:

  Three Months Ended
  9/30/2015 6/30/2015 change 9/30/2014 change
Net interest margin, excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments 3.60% 3.63% (0.03)% 3.73% (0.13)%
Acquisition accounting adjustments 0.27 0.28 (0.01) 0.42 (0.15)
Net interest margin 3.87% 3.91% (0.04)% 4.15% (0.28)%

The net interest margin for the 2015 third quarter declined 4 basis points from the preceding second quarter to 3.87%, or 3 basis points on a core basis when excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments. Compared with the prior-year third quarter, net interest margin decreased 28 basis points, or 13 basis points excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments, largely reflecting the industry-wide declines in the weighted average yield on loans.

The weighted average yield on loans and the impact of acquisition accounting adjustments are summarized in the following table:

  Three Months Ended
  9/30/2015 6/30/2015 change 9/30/2014 change
Weighted average yield on loans, excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments 4.62% 4.64% (0.02)% 4.78% (0.16)%
Acquisition accounting adjustments 0.32 0.34 (0.02) 0.51 (0.19)
Weighted average yield on loans 4.94% 4.98% (0.04)% 5.29% (0.35)%

The weighted average yield on loans for the 2015 third quarter declined 4 basis points to 4.94% from the preceding 2015 second quarter, or 2 basis points excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments. The weighted average yield on new loans originated during the 2015 third quarter declined to 4.23% from 4.29% in the preceding second quarter, reflecting what continues to be a fiercely competitive market for both fixed and variable rate loans.

Compared with the prior-year period, the weighted average yield on loans decreased 35 basis points, or 16 basis points on a core basis excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments.

The weighted average cost of deposits and the impact of acquisition accounting adjustments are summarized in the following table:

  Three Months Ended
  9/30/2015 6/30/2015 change 9/30/2014 change
Weighted average cost of deposits, excluding the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments 0.57% 0.56% 0.01% 0.55% 0.02%
Acquisition accounting adjustments (0.01) 0.01 (0.01) 0.01
Weighted average cost of deposits 0.57% 0.55% 0.02% 0.54% 0.03%

The weighted average cost of deposits for the 2015 third quarter increased 2 basis points from the preceding second quarter, or 1 basis point on a core basis excluding the effect of amortization of premium on time deposits assumed in acquisitions. Compared with the prior-year third quarter, the weighted average cost of deposits increased 3 basis points, or 2 basis points excluding the effect of premium amortization on time deposits assumed in acquisitions.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the 2015 third quarter totaled $13.2 million, an increase of 25% over $10.6 million in the preceding 2015 second quarter and an increase of 16% over $11.4 million in the 2014 third quarter. Aside from normal fluctuations in service fees on deposit accounts and gains on sales of loans and OREO, the Company posted other income and fees of $6.3 million in the 2015 third quarter, which included a higher than normal level of OREO-related rental income of $1.7 million. Other income and fees for both the preceding 2015 second quarter and 2014 third quarter totaled $4.3 million.

Noninterest Expense.  Total noninterest expense for the 2015 third quarter was relatively flat at $38.8 million, compared with $38.7 million in the preceding second quarter, and decreased 2% from $39.4 million in the prior-year third quarter. Salaries and employee benefits expense totaled $21.5 million for the 2015 third quarter, compared with $20.9 million for the preceding second quarter and $19.3 million for the third quarter a year ago. The total number of FTEs as of September 30, 2015 was 941, compared with 927 as of June 30, 2015 and 911 as of September 30, 2014.

Income Tax Provision. The effective tax rate for the 2015 third quarter was 41.1%, compared with 40.0% for the preceding 2015 second quarter and 39.8% for the 2014 third quarter.

Balance Sheet Summary

Loans receivable totaled $5.97 billion at September 30, 2015, reflecting a 3% increase over $5.82 billion at June 30, 2015, and a 10% increase over $5.43 billion at September 30, 2014.

Total new loan originations during the 2015 third quarter amounted to $431.9 million, including SBA loan originations of $54.5 million. Sales of SBA loans to the secondary market and gains derived from those sales are based substantially on the production of SBA 7(a) loans, which amounted to $46.1 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared with $58.3 million for the preceding 2015 second quarter. During the 2015 third quarter, the Company sold $42.4 million of its SBA loans held for sale.

Aggregate pay offs and pay downs for the 2015 third quarter amounted to $267.1 million, compared with $216.5 million for the preceding 2015 second quarter and $312.0 million for the year-ago third quarter.

Total deposits increased 5% to $6.03 billion at September 30, 2015 from $5.76 billion at June 30, 2015, largely reflecting increases in money market accounts and time deposits, offset by lower balances in noninterest bearing demand deposits. While noninterest bearing deposits at the close of the third quarter declined 3% from June 30, 2015 and accounted for 27% of total deposits, the average balance of noninterest bearing deposits for the 2015 third quarter was modestly higher than the preceding second quarter. Compared with September 30, 2014, total deposits increased 9% over $5.51 billion.

Credit Quality

The provision for loan losses for the 2015 third quarter was $600,000, compared with $1.0 million for the preceding 2015 second quarter and $4.3 million for the prior-year third quarter.

For a more detailed understanding of the changes in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses ("ALLL"), the composition of the ALLL has been segmented for disclosure purposes between loans accounted for under the amortized cost method (referred to as "Legacy Loans") and loans acquired through the Center Financial, Pacific International and Foster transactions (referred to as "Acquired Loans"). The Acquired Loans are further segregated between performing and credit impaired loans.

The composition of the ALLL as of September 30, 2015, June 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014 is as follows:

(dollars in thousands) 9/30/2015 6/30/2015 9/30/2014
Legacy Loans (1) $ 57,200 $ 55,563 $ 60,073
Acquired Loans - Performing (2) 1,418 1,908 1,973
Acquired Loans - Credit Impaired (2) 12,492 12,647 6,186
Total ALLL $ 71,110 $ 70,118 $ 68,232
       
Loans Receivable $ 5,972,724 $ 5,815,824 $ 5,432,844
ALLL coverage ratio 1.19% 1.21% 1.26%
 
(1)   Legacy Loans include loans originated by the Bank's predecessor bank, loans originated by BBCN and loans that were acquired and that have been refinanced as new loans.
(2) Acquired Loans were marked to fair value at acquisition date, and the allowance for loan losses reflect provisions for credit deterioration since the acquisition date.

For the 2015 third quarter, the Company recorded net recoveries of $392,000, or 0.03% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis. This compares with net charge offs of $476,000 for the 2015 second quarter, or 0.03% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis, and $2.9 million, or 0.21% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis, for the year-ago third quarter.
