Sound Financial Bancorp, Inc. Earns $1.1 Million for the Second Quarter of 2013,
Posting Its Fourteenth Consecutive Quarter of Profitability
 
Seattle, Wash., July 30, 2013 -- Sound Financial Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: SFBC), the holding company (the "Company") for Sound Community Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2013, or $0.43 per diluted common share.  The increase was primarily a result of a $650,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses as a result of a significant reduction in nonperforming loans and higher net interest income.  By comparison, net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $593,000, or $0.20 per average diluted common share.
 
“We are pleased to report another strong quarter in terms of earnings as well as continued improvement on asset quality,” said, President and CEO, Laurie Stewart. “We are working diligently to increase revenues and improve efficiency.  We accomplished both of these goals this quarter and we are developing quality relationships in all of our markets to foster additional business every day.”

Operating Results
 
Net interest income increased by $332,000 or 8.3% to $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $4.0 million in the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher average loan balances and lower cost of funds.  Net interest income for the first quarter of 2013 was $4.1 million.
 
The net interest margin was 4.68% for the second quarter of 2013, compared to 5.24% for the second quarter of 2012, and 4.55% for the first quarter of 2013. The decline in the net interest margin in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to a year ago was primarily due to lower loan yields due to the continued low interest rate environment.
 
The provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2013 was $450,000, compared to $1.1 million for the second quarter a year ago and $250,000 for the first quarter of 2013.  The decline in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to a year ago was primarily due to lower charge-offs and lower average balances of nonperforming loans which was partially offset by higher average loan balances and changes in the asset mix of our loan portfolio.
 
Noninterest income increased by $572,000, or 72.8% to $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $786,000 in the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to an increase in mortgage servicing income and a $250,000 increase in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights.  Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2013 was $1.4 million. The gain on sale of loans declined during the second quarter as compared to the prior quarter due to reduced refinancing activity, which may continue, due to the increase in mortgage interest rates during the second quarter.
 
Total noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2013 was $3.6 million, up 26.2% compared to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2012 and down 11.1% compared to $4.0 million for the first quarter of 2013.  The increase in noninterest expense from a year ago was primarily due to increased compensation expenses paid to commission-based employees as a result of increased loan demand and operations expense related to losses and potential losses on loans serviced for Fannie Mae.
 
The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2013 was 59.74%, compared to 58.51% for the second quarter of 2012, and 61.49% for the first quarter of 2013.  The increase in the efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2013 compared to a year ago was primarily due to higher salary, benefits and loan expenses associated with higher loan demand.
 
Balance Sheet Review, Capital Management and Credit Quality
 
The Company's total assets increased 15.3% to $409.6 million at June 30, 2013, from $355.1 million a year ago, and increased 7.5% from $381.0 million at December 31, 2012.  This increase was primarily a result of higher loan balances which increased $52.6 million from a year ago and $32.0 million from the end of 2012, primarily due to a $15.5 million increase in commercial and multifamily loans in 2013.  In addition, construction and land loans increased $13.0 million year over year reflecting the improvement in the housing market in the communities we serve.
 
The investment securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled $17.0 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $9.0 million at June 30, 2012, and $22.9 million at December 31, 2012.  At June 30, 2013, the securities available-for-sale portfolio was comprised of $14.3 million agency mortgage-backed securities (all issued by U.S. Government sponsored entities) and $2.7 million in private-label mortgage-backed securities.
 
Loans, excluding loans held-for-sale, totaled $358.7 million at June 30, 2013, an increase of 17.1% from $306.4 million at June 30, 2012, and an increase of 9.8% from $326.7 million at December 31, 2012. The loan portfolio remains well-diversified with commercial real estate loans accounting for 41.5% of the portfolio, of which 25.4% were owner-occupied.  Residential real estate loans accounted for 28.2% of the portfolio. Home equity, manufactured and other consumer loans accounted for 16.4% of the portfolio. Construction and land accounted for 10.7% of the portfolio and commercial and industrial loans accounted for the remaining 3.3% of total loans at June 30, 2013.

Nonperforming assets ("NPAs"), which include non-accrual loans, accruing loans 90 days and more delinquent, and foreclosed assets, totaled $3.2 million, or 0.78% of total assets, at June 30, 2013, compared to $9.5 million, or 2.71% of total assets, a year ago.

The decrease in the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2013, compared to June 30, 2012, was primarily due to improved credit metrics of our loan portfolio, as well as a decrease in net charge-offs.  Net charge-offs totaled $379,000 for the second quarter of 2013, compared to net charge-offs of $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2012, and net charge-offs of $452,000 for the first quarter of 2013.
 
Deposits totaled $319.5 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $313.7 million at June 30, 2012, and $312.1 million at December 31, 2012.  Borrowings from the FHLB of Seattle increased to $40.5 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $8.2 million at June 30, 2012 and $21.9 million at December 31, 2012.
 
The total cost of deposits decreased 7 basis points to 0.62% during the second quarter of 2013, from 0.69% during the second quarter of 2012, and decreased 2 basis points from 0.64% during the first quarter of 2013.  The total cost of borrowings decreased 218 basis points to 0.59% during the second quarter of 2013, from 2.77% during the second quarter of 2012, and decreased 34 basis points from 0.93% during the first quarter of 2013.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Sound Financial Bancorp, Inc. believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding Umpqua’s financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the GAAP results as reported.
 
Management believes tangible common equity and the tangible common equity ratio are meaningful measures of capital adequacy.  Tangible common equity is calculated as total shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, net (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, net (excluding mortgage servicing rights). The tangible common equity ratio is calculated as tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by tangible assets.
 
The following table provides reconciliations of ending shareholders’ equity (GAAP) to ending tangible common equity (non-GAAP), and ending assets (GAAP) to ending tangible assets (non-GAAP).
