The increase in earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 was primarily the result of increased net interest income and non-interest income. Loan portfolio growth increased the average balance of interest-earning assets for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 by $599.7 million compared to the same quarter in 2010. As a result, net interest income increased by approximately $5.0 million or 35.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2010. Non-interest income was $3.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $1.1 million compared to $1.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. The increase was the result of growth in the mortgage banking business units resulting in higher gains on sales of loans. The Bank's increased gross income was partially reduced by higher operating expenses. Core earnings, excluding the after-tax impact of gains and losses associated with our securities portfolio, increased to $6,828,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to $4,917,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.

Net income was $13,193,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2011, an increase of 35.2% over $9,759,000 earned for the six months ended December 31, 2010. Earnings attributable to BofI's common stockholders were $12,687,000 or $1.14 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2011, an increase of 28.1% from $9,605,000 or $0.89 per diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2010. The reasons for increased earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 are similar to those identified this quarter, specifically, increased net interest income from loan growth and increased non-interest income from growth in the volume of loans sold through the mortgage banking business.




“Our strong performance this quarter was again driven by robust single and multifamily loan originations that have allowed us to both meet our portfolio growth objectives and increase our non-interest income from loan sales,” said Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer. “For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, our loan portfolio has grown at an annual rate of 52.2%. Our total loan originations for the portfolio and for sale this quarter were $360.0 million, up 63.0% from the $220.8 million originated in the quarter ended December 31, 2010.”

“One of our distinguishing strengths as a banking franchise has been our asset quality and I am particularly proud to report that our non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets improved to 64 basis points at December 31, 2011, down from 80 basis points at September 30, 2011 and down from 125 basis points at December 31, 2010.”

Mr. Garrabrants concluded, “Since June 30, 2011, we raised approximately $34 million in equity capital. In the most recent quarter we raised gross proceeds of $13.8 million through the issuance of 862,500 shares of common at $16.00 per share, a discount of only 2.7% to the closing market price before announcement. The Bank continues to execute its business plan, tapping the capital markets only when we can do so on terms favorable to our current shareholders.”

Other Highlights:
Loan portfolio grew by $523.3 million or 52.2% compared to December 31, 2010
Deposits grew by $436.9, or 39.1% compared to December 31, 2010
Asset quality remains strong with total non-performing assets of 0.64% of total assets and with non-performing loans of 0.76% of total loans at December 31, 2011
Tangible book value increased to $14.80 per share, up $1.85 compared to December 31, 2010
Total assets reached $2,223.8 million up 33.9% compared to December 31, 2010

Second Quarter 2012 Income Statement Summary
During the quarter ended December 31, 2011, BofI earned $6,660,000 or $0.54 per diluted share compared to $4,927,000, or $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2010. Net interest income increased $4,963,000 or 35.1% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010. Average earning assets grew year over year by $599.7 million or 39.4% and our net interest margin was 3.60% compared to 3.72% for the quarters ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Loan loss provisions were $1,600,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

For the second quarter ended December 31, 2011, non-interest income was $2,986,000 compared to $1,927,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to gain on sale of non-agency mortgage loans which was $1.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. There were no non-agency mortgage loan sales during the quarter ended December 31, 2010.

Non-interest expense or operating costs increased $2,964,000, to $9,204,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from $6,240,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. The increase was mainly a result of an increase in compensation expense of $1,391,000 related to additional staffing added during the year, an increase in data processing expense of $353,000 and an increase in other operating expense categories due to costs associated with an increase account volume and additional employees.




Balance Sheet Summary

The loan portfolio increased a net $201.4 million, primarily from portfolio loan originations of $384.8 million less principal repayments of $98.1 million.
