SILICON VALLEY BANCSHARES AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accounting and reporting policies of Silicon Valley Bancshares and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and prevailing practices within the banking industry.  Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s 2001 interim Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the 2002 presentations. Such reclassifications had no effect on the results of operations or stockholders’ equity. The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Nature of Operations

 

Silicon Valley Bancshares is a bank holding company and a financial holding company whose principal subsidiary is Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”), a California-chartered bank with headquarters in Santa Clara, California. The Bank has 11 offices throughout California and operates regional offices across the country, including Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. The Bank serves emerging growth and middle-market companies in targeted niches, focusing on technology and life sciences, while also addressing other specific industries in which it can provide a higher level of service and better manage credit through specification and focus. Substantially all of the assets, liabilities, and earnings of the Company relate to its investment in the Bank.  Additionally, the Bank provides merger and acquisition services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Alliant Partners (“Alliant”.)

 

Consolidation

 

The interim Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Silicon Valley Bancshares and those of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. SVB Strategic Investors, LLC and Silicon Valley BancVentures, Inc., as general partners, are considered to have significant influence over the operating and financing policies of SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P. and Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P., respectively. Therefore, SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P. and Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P. are included in the Company’s interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Minority interest represents the minority participants’ share of the equity of SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P., and Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P.

 

Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

 

In the opinion of Management, the interim Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position at June 30, 2002, the interim results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001, and interim cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001. The December 31, 2001, Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements, and certain information and footnote disclosures normally presented in annual financial statements prepared in accordance

with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and prevailing practices within the banking industry have been omitted. The interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 19, 2002. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, may not necessarily be indicative of the Company’s operating results for the full year.

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and prevailing practices within the banking industry, requires Management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the results of operations for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to possible change in the near term relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. An estimate of possible changes or range of possible changes cannot be made.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents as reported in the interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes cash on hand, cash balances due from banks, federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreement to resell. The cash equivalents are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and present an insignificant risk of changes in value due to maturity dates of 90 days or less.

 

Federal Funds Sold and Securities Purchased Under Agreement to Resell

 

Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreement to resell as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets include interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions of $0 and $2.9 million at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.

 

Investment Securities

 

Investment securities are classified as either “available-for-sale,” “held-to-maturity,” “trading,” or “non-marketable” upon acquisition. Securities that are held to meet investment objectives such as interest rate risk and liquidity management, but which may be sold by the Company as needed to implement management strategies, are classified as available-for-sale and are accounted for at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, after applicable taxes, are excluded from earnings and are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity, until realized.

 

Securities acquired with the ability and positive intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are accounted for at historical cost, adjusted for the amortization of premiums or the accretion of discounts to maturity, where appropriate. Unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities become realized and are charged against earnings when it is determined that an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred. The Company has not classified any investments as held-to-maturity as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

 

8



 

The amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts are included in interest income over the contractual terms of the underlying investment securities using the interest method or the straight-line method, if not materially different. Gains and losses realized upon the sale of investment securities are computed on the specific identification method.

 

Securities acquired and held principally for the purpose of sale in the near term are classified as trading and are accounted for at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments on trading securities, as well as gains and losses realized upon the sale of investment securities, are included in noninterest income. The Company has not classified any investments as trading as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

 

Unrealized gains or losses on warrant securities, venture capital fund investments or other private equity investments are recorded upon the establishment of a readily determinable fair value of the underlying security. The Company records non-marketable warrant securities, venture capital fund investments and other private equity investments, on a cost basis less any identified impairment. The asset value of non-marketable equity securities is reduced when declines in value are considered to be other than temporary. Any estimated loss is recorded in noninterest income as a loss from equity securities along with income recognized on similar assets, if any.

 

Venture capital fund limited partner investment interests are reported under the cost method, as the Company’s interests are considered minor, in that we own less than 5%, and have no influence over the related venture capital fund’s operating and financial policies. The Company’s cost in these venture capital fund investments is reduced by distributions until fully recovered. Distributions in excess of the venture capital fund limited partner investment cost basis are recognized as investment gains in noninterest income.

 

Investments held by Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P. are recorded using investment accounting rules and consist of stock in private companies that are not traded in a public market and are subject to restrictions on resale. These investments are carried at estimated fair value determined by the general partner after giving consideration to operating results, financial conditions, recent sales, prices of issuers’ securities and other pertinent information. The general partner, Silicon Valley BancVentures, Inc. is controlled by Silicon Valley Bancshares. Any gains or losses resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of the investments are recorded as investment gains or losses on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuations, however, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P. may also have risk associated with its concentration of investments in certain geographic areas and certain industries.

 

The investments in limited partnerships, held by SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P., are recorded using investment accounting rules, calculated as the percentage of its interest in the total fair market value of the partnerships. These partnerships are venture capital partnerships that hold investments in publicly traded securities. These stocks may be subject to selling restrictions and limitations or held in escrow. These stocks were valued by the general partners of these partnerships and may be discounted from market prices. These venture capital partnerships also hold investments which are not currently traded in a pubic market and are subject to restrictions

on resale. These investments are carried by the venture capital partnerships at estimated fair value as determined by the general partner after giving consideration to operating results, financial conditions, recent sales, prices of issuers’ securities, and other pertinent information. Any gains or losses resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of the investments are recorded as investment gains or losses on the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The general partner of SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P., SVB Strategic Investors, LLC is controlled by Silicon Valley Bancshares. SVB Strategic Investors, LLC generally utilizes the valuations assigned to the venture capital fund investments by their general partners. Because of the uncertainty of valuations, however, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. The partnerships may also have risk associated with its concentration of investments in certain geographic areas and certain industries.

 

Silicon Valley BancVentures, Inc., Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P., SVB Strategic Investors, LLC, and SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P. are included in the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements. Silicon Valley BancVentures, Inc., and SVB Strategic Investors, LLC own interests of 10.7% and 11.0% in Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P. and SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P., respectively.  The portion of any gains or losses on these funds attributable to the limited partnership interests is eliminated from the Company’s results and financial positions through minority interest.

 

Loans

 

Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income. Unearned income includes both deferred loan origination and commitment fees and costs. The net amount of unearned income is amortized into loan interest income over the contractual terms of the underlying loans and commitments using the interest method or the straight-line method, if not materially different.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The Company maintains a systematic process to evaluate individual loans for inherent risk of loan losses.  The process segregates risk of loan losses, primarily through an internal risk rating methodology. This evaluation includes, but is not limited to, such factors as payment status, the financial condition of the borrower, borrower compliance with loan covenants, underlying collateral values, potential loan concentrations, and general economic conditions.  The Company’s policy requires certain credit relationships, exceeding specific dollar values, be reviewed by a committee of senior management, at least quarterly. The Company’s review process evaluates the appropriateness of the risk rating and allowance for loan losses allocation, as well as, other account management functions.  In addition, Management receives and approves an analysis for all impaired loans, as defined by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114 “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.” The allowance for loan losses is allocated based on a formula allocation for similarly risk-rated loans, or for specific risk issues, which suggest a probable loss factor exceeding the formula allocation for a specific loan, or for individual impaired loans as determined in accordance with SFAS No. 114. At Management’s discretion, judgmental allowance for loan losses may be established for loss expectations for specific lending industry sectors, for national or international economic conditions affecting the

 

10



 

loan portfolio, or for policy or personnel changes.  The judgmental allowance is not assigned to individual loans and may fluctuate, period to period, based on Management’s perception of changing risks in the lending environment.

 

Additions to the allowance for loan losses are made by charges to the provision for loan losses.  It is the Company’s policy to charge off loans that, in the judgment of Management, are deemed to have a substantial risk of loss.  Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses.  Recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the allowance for loan losses.

 

Our allowance for loan loss is established for loan losses not yet recognized. The process of anticipating loan losses is imprecise. Our allowance for loan losses is Management’s best estimate using the historical loan losses experience and Management’s perception of variables potentially leading to deviation from the historical loss experience.

 

Nonaccrual Loans

 

The Company is required to measure impairment of a loan based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, the Company may measure impairment based on the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. A loan is considered impaired when, based upon currently known information, it is deemed probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the agreement.

 

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due as to principal or interest payments (unless the principal and interest are well-secured and in the process of collection), when the Company has determined, based upon currently known information, that the timely collection of principal or interest is doubtful, or when the loans otherwise become impaired under the provisions of SFAS No. 114.

 

When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest is reversed against interest income and the loan is accounted for on the cash or cost recovery method thereafter until qualifying for return to accrual status. Generally, a loan will be returned to accrual status when all delinquent principal and interest become current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement and full collection of the principal and interest appears probable.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB No. 25), and related interpretations, in accounting for its employee stock options rather than the alternative fair value accounting allowed by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” APB No. 25 provides that the compensation expense relative to the Company’s employee stock options is measured based on the intrinsic value of the stock option. SFAS No. 123 requires companies that continue to follow APB No. 25 to provide a pro forma disclosure of the impact of applying the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions

 

11



 

of SFAS No. 123 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation.”

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with the provisions of  SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities.” SFAS No. 133, as amended, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, and requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Additionally, the accounting for changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative instrument is designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, the nature of the hedging activity. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment, as well as the ineffective portion of a particular hedge, must be recognized currently in earnings. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not result in a cumulative-type adjustment to net income or other comprehensive income. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings in the current period, unless the derivative instrument meets the definition of the short-cut treatment, as defined by SFAS No. 133. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the effective portion of the derivative instrument are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). These amounts are reclassified from OCI and recognized in earnings when either the forecasted transaction occurs or it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur. The Company did not have any cash flow hedging instruments during the six months ended June 30, 2002.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies the criteria that intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting that any purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted for separately.  (See Note 2 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements – Business Combination)

 

The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  Under these provisions, the Company is required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the year of adoption.  In addition, to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite useful life, the Company is required to test the intangible asset for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 within the year of adoption.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually.

 

12



 

The Company’s only intangible asset is goodwill pertaining to the acquisition of Alliant, discussed in Note 2 – Business Combination. This acquisition was accounted for under SFAS No. 141.  In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142, the goodwill balance was determined to be unamortizable.  As of the filing date of this report, the Company had completed its initial test for goodwill impairment.  The impairment analysis performed in July 2002 concluded that the goodwill was not impaired.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2001, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 01-6, “Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities With Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others.”  SOP 01-6 reconciles the specialized accounting and financial reporting guidance in the existing Banks and Savings Institutions Guide, Audits of Credit Unions Guide, and Audits of Finance Companies Guide. The SOP eliminates differences in accounting and disclosure established by the respective guides and carries forward accounting guidance for transactions determined to be unique to certain financial institutions. The adoption of this pronouncement has not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

 

2.  Business Combination

 

On September 28, 2001, the Company completed its acquisition of Alliant. The acquisition will allow the Company to strengthen its investment banking platform for its clients. The Company agreed to purchase the assets of Alliant for a total of $100.0 million, due in several installments of cash and common stock. These installments are payable over four years between September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2005, subject to certain conditions being satisfied. In addition to the fixed purchase price, the sellers will receive certain contingent purchase price payments including 75% of the pre-tax income of Alliant for the twelve-month period ending September 28, 2002. Furthermore, the Company shall pay to the sellers an amount equal to fifteen times the amount by which Alliant’s cumulative after-tax net income from October 1, 2002 to September 30, 2005 exceeds $26,500,000, provided, however, that the aggregate amount of any deferred earnout payment payable shall not exceed $75,000,000. The Company shall also make retention payments aggregating $5,000,000 in equal annual installments on September 28, 2003, 2004 and 2005. The first payment of $30.0 million was paid in cash on September 28, 2001. The remaining $70.0 million was discounted at prevailing forward market interest rates ranging between 2.5% and 3.3% and recorded as debt on September 28, 2001. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the net estimated fair values at the date of acquisition of approximately $0.5 million. The excess of purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The business combination was recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 141. (See Notes 1 and 7 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements – Significant Accounting Policies and Borrowings)

The aggregate recorded investment in loans for which impairment has been determined in accordance with SFAS No. 114 totaled $19.2 million and $24.3 million at June 30, 2002, and June 30, 2001, respectively. Allocations of the allowance for loan losses specific to impaired loans totaled $7.4 million at June 30, 2002, and $9.6 million at June 30, 2001. Average impaired loans for the second quarter of 2002 and 2001 totaled $21.2 million and $24.7 million, respectively.

6.  Goodwill

 

The goodwill balance at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $98.6 million and $96.4 million, respectively.  The increase of $2.3 million related to certain contingent purchase price payments, which included 75% of the pre-tax income of Alliant for the six months ending June 30, 2002, pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreement detailed in Note 2 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements – Business Combination.

 

7.  Borrowings

 

As of June 30, 2002, the Company had $41.7 million and $26.1 million in short-term borrowings and long-term debt, respectively. These borrowings were recorded in relation to the acquisition of Alliant and are payable to the former owners, who are now employed by the Company. The short-term note payable, due September 28, 2002, has a face value of $42.0 million. The long-term note payable, due in three equal annual installments commencing September 28, 2003, has a face value of $28.0 million. These notes were discounted over their respective terms, based on market interest rates as of September 28, 2001.  (See Note 2 to the interim Consolidated Financial Statements – Business Combination)

 

8.  Derivative Financial Instrument

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk from client loans, interest-bearing client deposits, investments, and debt. On June 3, 2002, the Company entered into a derivative agreement with a notional amount of $40.0 million. The agreement hedges against the risk of changes in fair value associated with the Company’s $40.0 million, fixed rate, Trust Preferred Securities (see Item 8. - Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2002). Changes in the fair value of the derivative agreement and the Trust Preferred Securities are primarily dependent on changes in market interest rates.  The derivative instrument has a fair value of $0.1 million which was recorded in other assets at June 30, 2002.  Furthermore, the Company recorded an addition of $0.1 million to the Trust Preferred Securities, to reflect the increase in fair value of these instruments during the period the derivative contract was in force. The terms of the agreement provide for quarterly receipt of 8.25% fixed-rate and payment of London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (LIBOR) plus a spread, based on the $40.0 million notional amount.  The derivative agreement mirrors the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities and therefore is callable by the counter-party anytime after June 15, 2003.  The Company assumes no ineffectiveness as the interest rate swap agreement meets the short-cut method requirements under SFAS 133 for fair value hedges of debt instruments. As a result, changes in the fair value of the derivative agreement are offset by changes in the fair value of the Trust Preferred Securities, and no net gain or loss is recognized in earnings.

 

9.  Segment Reporting

 

Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company operated as one segment.  On January 1, 2002, the Bank reorganized into five lines of banking and financial services: Commercial Banking,  Merchant Banking, Private Banking, Mergers and Acquisitions Services, and Business Services. The Commercial Bank is the principal operating segment of the Company and represents more than

 

16



 

90% of the Company’s revenue. The remaining segments do not meet segment reporting criteria, therefore, separate reporting of financial segment information is not considered necessary. 2001 segment data has been reflected below based on the reorganized structure of the Company.

 

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic units that offer different services to different clients. They are managed separately because each segment appeals to different markets and, accordingly, requires different strategies.

 

Since the Company derives a significant portion of its revenue from net interest income, the Company’s segments are reported below using net interest income. The Company also evaluates performance based on noninterest income and noninterest expense goals, which are also presented as measures of segment profit and loss.  The Company does not allocate income taxes to the segments.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Results of Operations

 

Throughout the following management discussion and analysis when we refer to “Silicon Valley Bancshares,” or “we” or similar words, we intend to include Silicon Valley Bancshares and its subsidiaries collectively, including Silicon Valley Bank. When we refer to “Silicon,” we are referring only to Silicon Valley Bancshares.

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our interim consolidated financial statements and supplementary data as presented in Part I - - Item 1 of this report.

 

This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our senior management have in the past and might in the future make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media, and others. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Broadly speaking, forward-looking statements include:

                  projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital expenditures, capital structure or other financial items;

                  descriptions of strategic initiatives, plans or objectives of our management for future operations, including pending acquisitions;

                  descriptions of products, services, and  industry sectors;

                  forecasts of future economic performance; and

                  descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing.

 

In this report, we make forward-looking statements discussing our management’s expectations about:

                  future earnings

                  future stock repurchases

                  future credit losses and nonperforming assets;

                  the future value of equity securities, including direct equity investments and those in our venture capital portfolios;

                  future changes  in short-term interest rates and their impact on our earnings;

                  future investments by venture capital funds in our clients;

                  future levels of noninterest expense;

                  future performance of our private label investment products; and

                  future investment banking revenues.

 

You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “becoming,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” or the negative of such terms, or comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, and we have based these expectations on our beliefs, as well as our assumptions, such expectations may prove to be incorrect. Our actual results of operations and financial performance could differ significantly from those expressed in or implied by our management’s forward-looking statements.

 

20



 

For information with respect to factors that could cause actual results to differ from the expectations stated in the forward-looking statements, see the text under the caption “Risk Factors” included in Item 7, page 42, of our annual report on Form 10-K dated March 19, 2002. We urge investors to consider all of these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this discussion and analysis.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our critical accounting policies relate to our marketable and non-marketable warrant, equity and venture capital fund investment securities and our allowance for loan losses.  These policies are included in Item 7 of our Report on Form 10-K dated March 19, 2002.

 

Earnings Summary

 

We reported net income of $15.0 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2002, compared with net income of $24.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2001.  Net income totaled $28.3 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2002, versus $57.5 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, for the respective 2001 period.  The annualized return on average assets (ROA) was 1.6% in the second quarter of 2002 compared with 2.2% in the second quarter of 2001. The annualized return on average equity (ROE) for the second quarter of 2002 was 9.3%, compared with 14.6% in the second quarter of 2001.  For the first six months of 2002, ROA was 1.5% and ROE was 8.9% versus 2.4% and 17.8%, respectively, for the comparable prior year period.

 

The decrease in net income for the second quarter of 2002, as compared with the second quarter of 2001, primarily resulted from a decline in net interest income, and an increase in noninterest expense, partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses.  The decrease in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2001, resulted primarily from a decline in both net interest income and noninterest income, which was partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses. The decrease in net interest income was caused by a 200 basis points decline in the prime rate from 6.75% at June 30, 2001, to 4.75% at June 30, 2002.  Moreover, we experienced a decrease in our clients’ deposits, which lowered our investable funds.  The major components of net income and changes in these components are summarized in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and are discussed in more detail below.

Net Interest Income and Margin

 

Net interest income is defined as the difference between interest earned on loans, investment securities, federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreement to resell, and interest paid on funding sources, primarily deposits. Net interest income is our principal source of recurring revenue. Net interest margin is defined as the amount of net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average yield earned on interest-earning assets is the amount of taxable-equivalent interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average rate paid on funding sources is defined as interest expense as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.

 

The following table sets forth average assets, liabilities, minority interest, stockholders’ equity, interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, interest expense, average yields and rates, and the composition of our net interest margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earnings assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “volume change.” Net interest income is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “rate change.” The following table sets forth changes in interest income and interest expense for each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The table also reflects the amount of simultaneous change attributable to both volumes and rates for the periods indicated.  For this table, changes that are not solely due to either volume or rate are allocated in proportion to the percentage changes in average volume and average rate.  Changes relating to investments in non-taxable municipal securities are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis using the federal statutory rate of 35% in 2002 and 2001.

Net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, totaled $50.0 million for the second quarter of 2002, a decrease of $21.7 million, or 30.2%, from the $71.7 million total for the second quarter of 2001.  The decrease in net interest income was the result of a $26.4 million, or 32.6%, decrease in interest income, offset by a $4.8 million, or 50.7%, decrease in interest expense over the comparable prior year period.

 

The $26.4 million decrease in interest income for the second quarter of 2002, as compared to the second quarter of 2001, was the result of a $4.6 million unfavorable volume variance and a $21.8 million unfavorable rate variance. The $4.6 million unfavorable volume variance resulted from a $603.6 million, or 14.9%, decrease in average interest-earning assets over the comparable prior year period. The decrease in average interest-earning assets was primarily centered in highly-liquid federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreement to resell, which decreased $477.7 million, and investment securities which decreased $187.6 million.

Average loans increased $61.7 million, or 3.7%, in the 2002 second quarter as compared to the 2001 second quarter, resulting in a $1.8 million favorable volume variance. We grew our loan portfolio to a record level, in part, by refocusing on attracting middle-market and mature technology and life sciences clients, which are currently under-served by competitors exiting these industry sectors. The loans that contributed to growth in our loan portfolio were not concentrated in any client, industry sector or geographic region. Additionally, new loans continue to be subject to our sound underwriting practices.  We expect further growth in our loan balances to increase our net interest margin since it will shift liquid interest-earning assets from our investment portfolio, which currently yields 3.6%, to loans with yields ranging between approximately 4.9% to 9.8%.

 

Average investment securities for the second quarter of 2002 decreased $187.6 million, or 10.4%, as compared to the 2001 second quarter, resulting in a $2.8 million unfavorable volume variance. The decrease in average investment securities was primarily centered in non-taxable obligations of states and political subdivisions, which declined $166.0 million. These decreases resulted from a corresponding decrease in our clients’ deposits.  Our clients continue to experience reduced liquidity due to the current slowdown in the capital markets and lower levels of venture capital fund investment.

 

Average federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreement to resell in the second quarter of 2002 decreased $477.7 million or 79.6% over the comparable prior year period, resulting in an $3.6 million unfavorable volume variance.  We experienced this decline in investable funds due to lower average client deposit balances.

 

Unfavorable rate variances associated with each component of interest-earning assets combined to decrease interest income by $21.8 million in the second quarter of 2002, as compared to the comparable prior year period.  Short-term market interest rates decreased rapidly throughout 2001. Thus, we earned lower yields in the second quarter of 2002 on federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, and our investment securities, a significant portion of which were short-term in nature.  The decrease in short-term market interest rates resulted in a combined $10.0 million unfavorable rate variance as compared with the second quarter of 2001. In the second quarter of 2002, we incurred a $11.8 million unfavorable rate variance associated with our loan portfolio.  The average yield on loans in second quarter 2002 decreased 280 basis points to 9.2% from 12.0% in the respective prior year second quarter. Our investment and loan portfolios are extremely asset sensitive, thus, we expect that any increase in short-term interest rates will be incremental to our earnings.

 

The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 170 basis points in the second quarter of 2002 from the comparable prior year period. This decrease primarily resulted from a 200 basis points decline in the prime rate from June 30, 2001 to June 30, 2002, thus, we earned lower yields on each component of our interest-earning assets in the second quarter of 2002.

 

Total interest expense in the 2002 second quarter decreased $4.8 million from the second quarter of 2001. This decrease was due to a favorable volume variance of $1.2 million and a favorable rate variance of $3.6 million. The favorable rate variance primarily resulted from a reduction in the average rate paid on our time deposit product, from 3.3% in the second quarter 2001 to 1.2% in the second quarter of 2002.

 

26



 

The average cost of funds paid in the second quarter of 2002 was 0.5%, down from 0.9% paid in the second quarter of 2001. The decrease in the average cost of funds was largely due to a decrease of 210 basis points in the average rate paid on our time deposit product, and a 30 basis points decrease on the average rate paid on our NOW deposit product.

 

Net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, totaled $100.1 million for the first half of 2002, a decrease of $54.5 million, or 35.3%, from the $154.6 million total for the first half of 2001.  The decrease in net interest income was the result of a $66.7 million, or 37.7%, decrease in interest income, offset by a $12.1 million, or 54.7%, decrease in interest expense over the comparable prior year period.

 

The $66.7 million decrease in interest income for the first half of 2002, as compared to the first half of 2001, was the result of a $13.9 million unfavorable volume variance and a $52.7 million unfavorable rate variance. The $13.9 million unfavorable volume variance resulted from a $848.4 million, or 19.4%, decrease in average interest-earning assets over the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in average interest-earning assets was primarily centered in highly-liquid federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreement to resell, which decreased $755.8 million.

 

The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 180 basis points in the first half of 2002 from the comparable prior year period. This decrease primarily resulted from a 200 basis points decline in the prime rate from 6.75% at June 30, 2001 to 4.75% at June 30, 2002, thus, we earned lower yields on each component of our interest-earning assets in the first half of 2002.

 

Total interest expense in the first half of 2002 decreased $12.1 million from the first half of 2001. This decrease was due to a favorable volume variance of $2.9 million and a favorable rate variance of $9.2 million. The favorable rate variance largely resulted from a reduction in the average rate paid on our time deposit product, from 3.6% in the first half of 2001 to 1.3% in the first half of 2002.

 

The average cost of funds paid in the first half of 2002 was 0.6%, down from 1.0% paid in the first half of 2001. The decrease in the average cost of funds was largely due to a decrease of 230 basis points in the average rate paid on our time deposit product, and a 30 basis points decrease on the average rate paid on our bonus money market deposit product.

 

Provision For Loan Losses

 

The provision for loan losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the existing allowance for loan losses in relation to total loans, and on our periodic assessment of the inherent and identified risk dynamics of the loan portfolio resulting from reviews of selected individual loans and loan commitments.

 

Our provision for loan losses totaled ($3.2) million for the second quarter of 2002, a $9.1 million, or 154.1%, decrease compared to the $5.9 million provision for the second quarter of 2001.  We benefited from $7.8 million in net recoveries, due in large part to recoveries from entertainment loan litigation settlements, during the second quarter of 2002.  The net recovery resulted in a ($3.2) million provision for loan losses for the 2002 second quarter.  The provision for loan losses decreased $10.6 million, or 98.0%, to a total of $0.2 million for the first six

months of 2002, versus $10.8 million for the comparable 2001 period.  See “Financial Condition - Credit Quality and the Allowance for Loan Losses” for additional related discussion.

Noninterest income increased $0.6 million to a total of $18.9 million in the second quarter of 2002, versus $18.2 million in the prior year second quarter. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $3.7 million in corporate finance fees, which was partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in client investment fees and a $0.8 million increase in investment losses. Noninterest income totaled $35.8 million for the first six months of 2002, a decrease of $6.3 million, or 15.1%, from $42.1 million in the comparable 2001 period.  This decrease was primarily due to decreases of $5.7 million in disposition of client warrants, $4.6 million in client investment fees, and $3.0 million increase in investment losses.  These decreases were partially offset by a $6.4 million increase in corporate finance fees generated by Alliant.

 

Client investment fees totaled $7.8 million and $16.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $9.2 million and $21.0 million in the similar prior year period. We offer private label investment and sweep products to clients on which we earn fees ranging from 11 to 107 basis points on the average balance of these products. At June 30, 2002, $8.7 billion in client funds were invested in private label investments and sweep products, including $6.9 billion in the mutual fund products compared to $9.4 billion and $7.2 billion for the comparative prior year periods, respectively. The decrease in client investment fees was a combination of a shift in investment mix and a decline in client balances. In June 1999, we began offering private label investment products in response to high levels of liquidity in our client base. The increase in client liquidity was precipitated by a strong inflow of investment capital into the venture capital community. Beginning in 2002, we commenced a short-term initiative to transfer the private label investment operations from Silicon Valley Bank into a wholly-owned, registered, broker-dealer subsidiary. Upon completion, this action will allow us to provide a more expansive and competitive array of investment products and service to our clients. Initiatives to build the infrastructure to support the broker-dealer entity are underway and expected to be completed this

 

28



 

year.  We believe these initiatives will provide us additional future opportunities to compete for additional client funds and grow the private label investment product balances.

 

Corporate finance fees generated by Alliant, totaled $4.4 million and $7.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.  SVB Securities, Inc., generated $0.7 million and $0.9 million in the comparable prior year periods.  The increase in corporate finance fees was primarily due to the acquisition of Alliant on September 28, 2001, which allowed us to generate increased mergers and acquisitions deal flow.  Alliant’s revenues are typically a function of the valuation of their clients’ mergers and acquisitions transactions.  Global political and economic events have depressed valuations of high technology and life sciences corporations.  Consequently, Alliant has not achieved its initial revenue goals.  However, Alliant has met its targets for mergers and acquisitions transaction volumes.  We are witnessing a rebound in Alliant’s business as evidenced by an increase in revenues from $3.0 million in the 2002 first quarter to $4.4 million in the 2002 second quarter.  Based on current engagement pipeline we expect Alliant to experience continued revenue growth.

 

Letter of credit fees, foreign exchange fees, and other trade finance income totaled $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $0.7 million, or 22.7%, from the $2.9 million earned in the second quarter of 2001.  For the first six months of 2002, letter of credit fees, foreign exchange fees, and other trade finance income totaled $7.4 million, relatively unchanged from the comparable prior year period.  The increase in the second quarter of 2002 as compared to the 2001 second quarter reflects an increase in the volume of client foreign exchange transactions during the second quarter of 2002 versus the comparable prior year period.

 

Deposit service charges totaled $2.3 million for the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $0.4 million from the comparable period in 2001.  For the first six months of 2002 and 2001, deposit service charges totaled $4.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively.  Clients compensate us for depository services either through earnings credits computed on their demand deposit balances, or via explicit payments recognized by us as deposit service charges income. Clients earned lower credits in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the respective prior year periods due to lower average client deposit balances and lower market interest rates. As such, our clients had fewer credits to offset explicit deposit service charges.  Thus, we earned higher explicit deposit service charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.

 

Due to reduced client initial public offering and merger and acquisition activities, the income from disposition of client warrants totaled $0.7 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $2.4 million and $6.5 million for the respective 2001 periods.  We have historically obtained rights to acquire stock, in the form of warrants, in certain clients, primarily as part of negotiated credit facilities. The receipt of warrants does not change the loan pricing, covenants or other collateral control techniques we employ to mitigate the risk of a loan becoming nonperforming. The collateral requirements on loans with warrants are similar to lending arrangements where warrants are not obtained. The timing and amount of income from the disposition of client warrants typically depends upon factors beyond our control, including the general condition of the public equity markets as well as the merger and acquisition environment. We therefore cannot predict the timing and amount of warrant related income with any degree of accuracy and it is likely to vary materially from period to period.

 

29



 

We incurred $2.0 million and $4.6 million in losses on investment securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, primarily related to the write-down of certain venture capital fund and direct equity investments. Excluding the impact of minority interest, the net write-downs of our equity securities totaled $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2002 and $2.4 million in the first half of 2002.  Based on current market conditions and our analysis of our equity portfolio, which includes private equity and venture capital fund investments, we expect the level of investment securities’ losses to decrease in the remaining quarters of 2002.

 

Other noninterest income largely consists of service-based fee income, which decreased $0.2 million, or 7.5%, to $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2002 from $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2001.  For the six months ended June 30, 2002, other noninterest income decreased $1.1 million, or 22.4%, to $3.9 million from $5.0 million in the comparable prior year period.  This decrease in other noninterest income was primarily due to the elimination of supply chain service operations in late 2001.  Income from supply chain services was $0.9 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

 

Noninterest Expense

 

Noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2002 totaled $49.0 million, a $4.3 million, or 9.7%, increase from the $44.7 million incurred in the comparable prior year period. Noninterest expense totaled $92.3 million for the first six months of 2002, an increase of $1.5 million, or 1.7%, from the $90.8 million incurred in the comparable prior year period.  We closely monitor our level of noninterest expense using a variety of financial ratios, including the efficiency ratio. The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing the amount of adjusted noninterest expense by adjusted revenues.  Noninterest expense is adjusted to exclude costs associated with amortization of investments in tax credit funds, minority interest, and retention and warrant incentive plans.  Revenues are adjusted to exclude income associated with minority interest, the disposition of client warrants, and gains or losses related to investment securities.  This ratio reflects the level of operating expense required to generate $1 of operating revenue. Our efficiency ratio was 68.8% for the second quarter of 2002, compared to 49.5% for the second quarter of 2001.  Our efficiency ratio for the first six months of 2002 was 65.4%, compared to 46.5% for the comparable 2001 period. The following table presents the detail of noninterest expense and the incremental contribution of each expense line item to our efficiency ratio:

Compensation and benefits expenses totaled $28.8 million in the second quarter of 2002, a $6.8  million, or 30.8%, increase from the $22.0 million incurred in the second quarter of 2001.  For the first six months of 2002, compensation and benefits expenses totaled $53.7 million, an increase of $8.9 million, or 19.8%, compared to $44.9 million for the comparable 2001 period.  We experienced an increase in compensation and benefits for the following four reasons.  First, we completed a strategic realignment of some of our business activities in the second quarter of 2002, which resulted in severance expense of $1.1 million.  Second, we accrued $3.2 million in incentive compensation related to our target earnings levels being achieved.  Third, we incurred expense of $0.7 million related to Alliant incentive compensation.  Under the provisions of the Alliant purchase agreement, Alliant employees are compensated with a fixed percentage of Alliant gross revenues.  Finally, average FTE personnel was 988 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 965 for the respective prior year periods. The increase in FTE personnel was primarily due to conversion of certain consultants to permanent employees status and our efforts to build an infrastructure sufficient to support our business activities and regulatory requirements. We are continuing our specific measures to control the number of FTE personnel during 2002 due to the current economic slowdown in our marketplace.

 

Occupancy, furniture, and equipment expenses totaled $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $1.4 million, or 20.5%, compared to $6.6 million incurred in the second quarter of 2001.  Occupancy, furniture, and equipment expenses totaled $14.6 million and $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  In the 2002 second quarter we recorded a $2.0 million write-off of future lease payments on excess premises, which resulted from the aforementioned strategic business activity realignment. This increase was also related to incremental costs associated with the addition of regional offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, which were opened in the latter half of 2001.

 

Professional services expenses, which consist of costs associated with corporate legal services, litigation settlements, accounting and auditing services, consulting, and our board of directors, totaled $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2002, a $1.7 million, or 28.6% decrease from the $6.1 million incurred in the second quarter of 2001.  For the first six months of 2002, professional services expenses totaled $7.4 million a decrease of $4.3 million, or 36.5%, compared to $11.7 for the comparable 2001 period.  The decrease in professional services primarily related to a reduction in the number of business initiatives supported by consultants.  Professional fees included $0.8 million related to entertainment loan recoveries litigation in the 2002 second quarter.

 

Business development and travel expenses totaled $1.9 million and $4.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 20.1%, and $1.3 million, or 24.8%, compared to $2.4 million and $5.4 million in the comparable 2001 periods. The decrease in business development and travel expenses was largely attributable to our efforts to control noninterest expense.

 

Trust preferred securities distributions totaled $0.7 million and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, and resulted from the issuance of $40.0 million in cumulative trust preferred securities during the second quarter of 1998. The trust preferred securities pay a fixed rate quarterly distribution of 8.25% and have a maximum maturity of 30 years. On June 3, 2002, the Company entered into a derivative agreement with a notional amount

 

32



 

of $40.0 million. The agreement hedges against the risk of changes in fair value associated with the Company’s $40.0 million, fixed rate, Trust Preferred Securities.   The terms of the agreement provide for quarterly receipt of 8.25% fixed-rate and payment of London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (LIBOR) plus a spread, based on the $40.0 million notional amount.  The derivative agreement provided a $0.1 million decrease in trust preferred security distributions expense in the 2002 second quarter.  We expect this hedge to provide a greater reduction of the cost of our trust preferred securities in the 2002 third quarter.

 

Advertising and promotion expenses totaled $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 92.0%, and $1.2 million, or 65.2%, compared to $0.8 million and $1.8 million in the comparable 2001 periods.  Additionally, postage and supplies expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 6.2% from the prior year second quarter. These decreases were largely attributable to our efforts to control noninterest expense.

 

Other noninterest expense totaled $2.7 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $0.01 million, or 0.5%, and a decrease of $1.2 million, or 17.1%, compared to $2.8 million and $7.0 million for the respective 2001 period. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to an operational loss of $2.2 million incurred in the first quarter of 2001, which was recovered in the 2001 third quarter.

 

Minority Interest

 

The minority interest share of losses related to SVB Strategic Investors Fund, L.P. and Silicon Valley BancVentures, L.P. totaled $1.4 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $0.7 million or 95.9%, and $2.0 million, or 166.2%, compared to $0.7 million and $1.2 million for the respective 2001 periods. The increase in minority interest losses was primarily due to write-downs of investment securities held by these limited partnerships.

 

Income Taxes

 

Our effective tax rate was 36.3% for the second quarter and first half of 2002, compared to 36.9%  and 38.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.  The change in rate was primarily due to an increase in items giving rise to permanent tax benefits.

 

Financial Condition

 

Our total assets were $3.8 billion at June 30, 2002, a decrease of $340.3 million, or 8.2%, compared to $4.2 billion at December 31, 2001. This decrease was primarily concentrated in investment securities, which decreased by $372.5 million, or 20.3%.  This decrease was partially offset by a $101.8 million increase in loans, net of unearned income.

 

Federal Funds Sold and Securities Purchased Under Agreement to Resell

 

Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreement to resell totaled $154.9 million at June 30, 2002, a decrease of $57.3 million, or 27.0%, compared to the $212.2 million

 

33



 

outstanding at the prior year end. This decrease was attributable to reduced investable funds as a result of a decline in our clients’ deposit balances.

Investment securities totaled $1.5 billion at June 30, 2002, a decrease of $372.5 million, or 20.3%, from December 31, 2001. This decrease resulted from a decline in our deposits during the first six months of 2002 and primarily consisted of U.S. agency securities.

 

Based on June 30, 2002 market valuations, we had potential pre-tax warrant gains totaling $2.1 million related to 18 companies. We are restricted from exercising many of these warrants until later in 2002. As of June 30, 2002, we held 1,770 warrants in 1,316 companies, and had made investments in 242 venture capital funds, and direct equity investments in 44 companies, many of which are private. Thus, for those companies for which a readily determinable market value cannot be obtained, we value those equity instruments at cost less any identified impairment. Additionally, we are typically contractually precluded from taking steps to secure the current unrealized gains associated with many of these equity instruments. Hence, the amount of income we realize from these equity instruments in future periods may vary materially from the current unrealized amount due to fluctuations in the market prices of the underlying common stock of these companies.

 

Loans

 

Loans, net of unearned income, at June 30, 2002, totaled $1.9 billion, an increase of $101.8 million compared to the balance at December 31, 2001. We continue to increase the number of client lending relationships in most of our technology and life sciences niche practices as well as in specialized lending products. The loans that contributed to growth in our loan portfolio were not concentrated in any client, industry sector or geographic region. Additionally, new loans continue to be subject to our sound underwriting practices.

 

Credit Quality and the Allowance for Loan Losses

 

For a description of the accounting policies related to the allowance for loan losses, see Item 7. - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -Critical Accounting Policies and Item 8. - Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Significant Accounting Policies - Loans - Allowance for Loan Losses, filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2002.

 

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Our allowance for loan loss is established for loan losses not yet recognized. At June 30, 2002, we consider our allowance for loan losses our best estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio using the historical loan loss experience and our perception of variables potentially leading to deviation from the historical loss experience.

 

The allowance for loan losses totaled $76.0 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $3.6 million, or 5.0% compared to $72.4 million at December 31, 2001.

We incurred $8.2 million and $14.8 million in gross charge-offs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively.  We realized $16.0 million and $18.2 million in gross recoveries during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively. Gross charge-offs for the 2002 second quarter included two commercial credits totaling $2.3 million in our communications and electronics practice.  Our recoveries in the 2002 second quarter primarily related to entertainment loans.  We have settled law suits for the collection of four of the five entertainment loans, which were charged-off in 2000 and 2001.  The most recent entertainment loan recovery was completed subsequent to June 30, 2002.

 

We believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate but not excessive as of June 30, 2002. However, future changes in circumstances, economic conditions or other factors could cause us to increase or decrease the allowance for loan losses as deemed necessary. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to make adjustments to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

 

Nonperforming assets consist of well-secured loans that are past due 90 days or more but are still accruing interest and loans on nonaccrual status. The table below sets forth certain relationships between nonperforming assets and the allowance for loan losses:

Nonperforming loans totaled $19.4 million, or 1.0% of total gross loans, at June 30, 2002, an increase of $1.1 million, or 6.2%, from the prior year-end total of $18.3 million, or 1.0% of total gross loans.

 

In addition to the loans disclosed in the foregoing analysis, we have identified six loans totaling $15.9 million, that, on the basis of information known to us, were judged to have a higher than normal risk of becoming nonperforming.  One of the six loans has an $8 million outstanding to a well-publicized, public, California-based software company. The borrower has publicly announced that it may have overstated revenues by as much as $100 million over the past three years.  We believe this announcement in conjunction with other potentially suspicious activities

may jeopardize full repayment of our loan.  We are not aware of any other loans where known information about possible problems of the borrower casts serious doubts about the ability of the borrower to comply with the loan repayment terms.

 

Deposits

 

Total deposits were $3.0 billion at June 30, 2002, a decrease of $387.8 million, or 11.5%, from the prior year-end total of $3.4 billion. A significant portion of the decrease in deposits during the first six months of 2002 was concentrated in our noninterest-bearing demand deposits and time deposits, which decreased $204.7 million and $105.6 million, respectively.  This overall decrease was explained by a slowdown in the capital markets and venture capital fundings which has reduced our clients’ liquidity levels.

 

Market Risk Management

 

Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk impacting us. Our monitoring activities related to managing interest rate risk include both interest rate sensitivity “gap” analysis and the use of a simulation model to measure the impact of market interest rate changes on the net present value of estimated cash flows from our assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items, defined as our market value of portfolio equity (MVPE). See our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K for disclosure of the quantitative and qualitative information regarding the interest rate risk inherent in interest rate risk sensitive instruments as of December 31, 2001. There have been no changes in the assumptions used by us in monitoring interest rate risk as of June 30, 2002. Other types of market risk affecting us in the normal course of our business activities include foreign currency exchange risk and equity price risk. The impact on us resulting from these latter two market risks is not considered significant and no separate quantitative information concerning market rate and price exposure is presented herein. We do not maintain a portfolio of trading securities and do not intend to engage in such activities in the immediate future.

 

Liquidity

 

Another important objective of asset/liability management is to manage liquidity. The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that funds are available in a timely manner to meet loan demand and depositors’ needs, and to service other liabilities as they come due, without causing an undue amount of cost or risk, and without causing a disruption to normal operating conditions.

 

We regularly assess the amount and likelihood of projected funding requirements through a review of factors such as historical deposit volatility and funding patterns, present and forecasted market and economic conditions, individual client funding needs, and existing and planned business activities. Our asset/liability committee (ALCO) provides oversight to the liquidity management process and recommends policy guidelines, subject to board of directors approval, and courses of action to address our actual and projected liquidity needs.

 

The ability to attract a stable, low-cost base of deposits is our primary source of liquidity. Other sources of liquidity available to us include short-term borrowings, which consist of federal funds purchased, security repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowing arrangements. Our liquidity requirements can also be met through the use of our portfolio of liquid assets. Our definition of liquid assets includes cash and cash equivalents in excess of the minimum levels

 

36



 

necessary to carry out normal business operations, federal funds sold, securities purchased under resale agreements, investment securities maturing within six months, investment securities eligible and available for pledging purposes with a maturity in excess of six months, and anticipated near term cash flows from investments.

 

Our policy guidelines provide that liquid assets as a percentage of total deposits should not fall below 20.0%. At June 30, 2002, the Bank’s ratio of liquid assets to total deposits was 40.9%. This ratio is well in excess of our minimum policy guidelines and was lower than the comparable ratio of 48.3% as of December 31, 2001. In addition to monitoring the level of liquid assets relative to total deposits, we also utilize other policy measures in liquidity management activities. As of June 30, 2002, we were in compliance with all of these policy measures.

 

On a stand-alone basis, Silicon’s primary source of liquidity is dividends from Silicon Valley Bank.  The ability of Silicon Valley Bank to pay dividends is subject to certain regulations.

 

Capital Resources

 

Our management seeks to maintain adequate capital to support anticipated asset growth and credit risks, and to ensure that Silicon and Silicon Valley Bank are in compliance with all regulatory capital guidelines. Our primary sources of new capital include the issuance of trust preferred securities and common stock, as well as retained earnings.

 

As of June 30, 2002, we repurchased 272,500 shares of common stock totaling $8.3 million in conjunction with the $50.0 million share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors on March 21, 2002. We intend to continue to repurchase shares under the program, from time to time, under conditions which allow such repurchases to be accretive to earnings while maintaining capital ratios that exceed the guidelines for a well capitalized financial institution.

 

During 2001, we completed the share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors on April 5, 2001, which resulted in the repurchase of 4.5 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $99.9 million.

 

Stockholders’ equity totaled $658.8 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $31.3 million, or 5.0%, from the $627.5 million balance at December 31, 2001. This increase was primarily due to net income of $28.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002.  We have not paid a cash dividend on our common stock since 1992, and we do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures as of June 30, 2002.

 

Both Silicon and Silicon Valley Bank are subject to capital adequacy guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve Board. Under these capital guidelines, the minimum total risk-based capital ratio and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio requirements are 10.0% and 6.0%, respectively, of risk-weighted assets and certain off-balance sheet items for a well capitalized depository institution.

 

The Federal Reserve Board has also established minimum capital leverage ratio guidelines for state member banks. The ratio is determined using Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets. The guidelines require a minimum of 5.0% for a well capitalized depository institution.

Both Silicon Valley Bancshares and Silicon Valley Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of regulatory guidelines for a well capitalized depository institution as of June 30, 2002, and December 31, 2001. Capital ratios for Silicon Valley Bancshares are set forth below:

The increase in the total risk-based capital ratio and the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio from December 31, 2001 to June 30, 2002 was primarily attributable to an increase in Tier 1 capital of $25.2 million. This increase was primarily due to net income of $28.3 million earned in the first six months of 2002.
