Banc of California Reports 2013 Third Quarter
 
Financial Results
 
Irvine, Calif. (November 8, 2013) Banc of California, Inc. (NASDAQ: BANC) (the “Company”), the holding company for Banc of California, National Association (the “Bank”), today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. For the quarter, the Company reported net loss attributable to common shareholders of $9.5 million or $0.53 per diluted common share. This compares with net income available to common shareholders of $4.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted common share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013, and net income available to common shareholders of $9.2 million, or $0.79 per diluted common share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 the Company reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $4.5 million, or $0.32 per diluted common share for the first nine months of 2013. This compares with net income available to common shareholders of $8.1 million or $0.70 per diluted common share for the first nine months of 2012.
 
The Company’s consolidated assets totaled $3.72 billion at September 30, 2013, an increase of $1.18 billion compared with $2.54 billion at June 30, 2013, and an increase of $2.05 billion compared with $1.67 billion at September 30, 2012. Loans and leases of $2.58 billion at September 30, 2013 increased $.98 billion compared with $1.60 billion at June 30, 2013, and increased $1.37 billion compared with $1.20 billion at September 30, 2012. The increases in total assets and loans and leases receivable were primarily a result of organic loan growth, loans acquired in the acquisitions of The Private Bank of California, Beach Business Bank and Gateway Bancorp, purchases of seasoned SFR residential mortgage loans, and growth in deposits to support the previously announced deposit branch sale which closed October 4, 2013. Total deposits of $3.26 billion at September 30, 2013 represented an increase of $1.15 billion compared with $2.11 billion at June 30, 2013 and an increase of $1.93 billion compared with $1.33 billion at September 30, 2012.
 
Steven Sugarman, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated “I am inspired by the commitment, dedication, and expertise of our team. Since the beginning of the third quarter, we have completed the acquisitions of The Private Bank of California, The Palisades Group and CS Financial; consolidated our banking subsidiaries under a single national bank charter; and converted to a new core operating system. The Banc of California now exceeds $3.5 billion in assets and boasts a single, consolidated full service banking platform able to meet the needs of California’s small businesses, entrepreneurs and homeowners.”
 
The Company and the Bank also announced today the appointment of Mr. Sugarman as President of the Company and President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank. Mr. Sugarman will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company and Chairman of the Bank.

Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Banc of California, Inc.’s. capital strength. Tangible equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total stockholders' equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from total stockholders' equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Banc of California, Inc. This disclosure should not be viewed as a substitution for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
 
The following table reconciles this non-GAAP performance measure to the GAAP performance measure for the periods indicated:
