FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
| • | Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 totaled $1.6 million, compared to a net income of $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2012 and a net income of $4.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. |
| • | The Company reported net loss attributable to common shareholders of $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $189,000 for the first quarter of 2012, and net income attributable to common shareholders of $2.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. |
| • | Net interest income for the second quarter of 2012 was $54.1 million, an increase of $2.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2012, and an increase of $8.6 million when compared to the second quarter of 2011. Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2012 increased 6 basis points to 2.91%, compared to 2.85% for the first quarter of 2012. The improvement in net interest income of $2.0 million was driven by a $0.8 million increase in loans interest income as the Company continues to grow the U.S. commercial loan portfolio. The $0.8 million increase in interest income growth was complemented by a $1.2 million interest expense decrease, mainly from interest expense on deposits as the Company lowered the average deposit rate by 15 basis points. |
| • | Provision for loan and lease losses for the second quarter of 2012 was $5.2 million, a decrease of $110.0 million over the first quarter 2012 provision, and a decrease of $8.1 million from the provision recorded in the second quarter of 2011. The $5.2 million provision for loan and lease losses in the second quarter of 2012 resulted mainly from commercial real estate ($3.8 million) and the residential mortgage portfolios ($2.5 million), particularly related to Puerto Rico loan exposures. |
| • | Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2012 of $21.3 million reflects an increase of $4.7 million and a decrease of $17.5 million compared to non-interest income of $16.6 million for the first quarter of 2012 and $38.8 million for the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The increase in non-interest income when compared to the first quarter of 2012 results from the $6.4 million positive variance in other-than-temporary impairment on certain securities that were sold during the second quarter of 2012. |
| • | Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 of $71.0 million increased $7.5 million and $7.4 million from the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The expense increase in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2012 was mainly driven by nonrecurring personnel and professional services expenses of $3.3 million. |
| • | Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2012 was $0.8 million, a $113.4 million variance when compared with an income tax benefit of $112.6 million in the first quarter of 2012. The income tax benefit of the first quarter 2012 resulted from a new Closing Agreement with the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in which the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico recognized a prepayment of income taxes of approximately $225.7 million from Doral related to the past overpayment of taxes. |
| • | Doral’s loan production for the second quarter of 2012 was $523.4 million, an increase of $41.6 and $58.7 million, compared to $481.8 million and $464.7 million for the first quarter of 2012 and second quarter of 2011, respectively. The U.S. commercial loan production totaled $300.9 million or 57.5% of the total loan production for the second quarter of 2012. |
| • | Doral reported total assets as of June 30, 2012 of $8.3 billion compared to $8.0 billion as of December 31, 2011. The increase of $370.3 million is mainly due to an increase in net loans of $195.3 million and to the establishment of the prepaid tax asset and release of the related deferred tax asset reserve pursuant to the first quarter of 2012 agreement with the government of Puerto Rico. |
| • | Total deposits of $4.5 billion as of June 30, 2012, increased $143.2 million, or 3.3%, from deposits of $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2011. The Company’s brokered deposits decreased $60.1 million while retail deposits increased $203.2 million. |
2
| • | Non-performing loans (“NPLs”), excluding FHA/VA loans guaranteed by the U.S. government, as of June 30, 2012 were $705.4 million, an increase of $135.8 million from December 31, 2011 and a decrease of $8.3 million from March 31, 2012. The higher level of NPLs as of June 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 resulted largely from the classification of certain residential mortgage TDR loans as NPLs as Doral adopted a more conservative stance reflecting the uncertain economic and regulatory environment. |
| • | The Company’s capital ratios continue to exceed the well-capitalized standards established by the federal banking agencies with ratios of Tier 1 Leverage of 9.92%, Tier 1 Risk-based Capital of 12.94% and Total Risk-based Capital of 14.21%. The Leverage, Tier 1 and Total Risk-based Capital Ratios exceeded the well-capitalized standards by $407.5 million, $440.7 million and $267.0 million, respectively. The increase in the capital ratios results in large part from the effects of Doral’s new Closing Agreement with the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico which resulted in a realized gain and reduced amount of disqualified deferred tax assets. |
