Earnings Summary
The increase in net income available to common shareholders compared to the second quarter of 2013 resulted from a $7.2 million increase in net interest income, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in noninterest income and a $2.5 million increase in noninterest expense.
The increase in net income available to common shareholders compared to the first quarter of 2014 was impacted primarily by a $2.4 million increase in net interest income, largely offset by a $0.8 million decrease in noninterest income and a $1.0 million increase in noninterest expense.
Consolidated net income available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $15.8 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Net Interest Income and Margin (Fully Tax Equivalent Basis)
The information set forth below contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Net interest income and the net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis based on the federal statutory rate of 35% to consistently reflect income from taxable loans and securities and tax-exempt securities. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP measures.
For the second quarter of 2014, net interest income increased $7.5 million, or 40.8%, to $25.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2013. The increase in net interest income was primarily the result of our continued success in growing our loan portfolio and our low cost deposits, along with higher yields on our investment portfolio, partially offset by lower yields on our loan portfolio. The increase in interest income included a $3.9 million, or 27.8%, increase in interest income on loans and a $3.5 million, or 73.2%, increase in interest income on securities. Deposit growth of $548.0 million, or 30.3%, supported a 31.5% increase in the average balance of our loan portfolio and a 30.9% increase in the average balance of our investment securities portfolio.
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2014 increased $2.4 million compared to the first quarter of 2014, primarily driven by an increase in loan interest income of $1.3 million and an increase in investment interest income of $0.9 million from higher average balances and higher yields.
For the second quarter of 2014 our net interest margin increased to 4.03% from 3.78% versus the same period in the prior year. This increase was due largely to our decision in 2013 to invest a greater percentage of interest-earning assets in higher yielding municipal bonds and lower premium amortization on agency mortgage-backed securities resulting from slower prepayments, which were partially offset by an 18 basis point decline in the yield earned on our loan portfolio in response to competitive pressures in the current low rate environment. For the second quarter of 2014, our net interest margin decreased to 4.03% from 4.12% for the first quarter of 2014. This decrease was largely due to the impact of higher cash balances, partially offset by a 13 basis point increase in the yield earned on our loan portfolio and higher yields on agency mortgage-backed securities.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2014 was $6.4 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 15.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2013 and a decrease of $0.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2014. The decrease in noninterest income compared to the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in warrant income and $0.4 million lower gains on the sale of SBA loans due to our strategic decision to hold more SBA loans in our loan portfolio. These decreases were partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in client service fees, $1.4 million higher unrealized gains from our venture capital fund investments, and a gain of $0.5 million recorded on the transfer of the contract for the management of Square 1 Venture 1, L.P. to a third party.
The $0.8 million decrease in noninterest income compared to the first quarter of 2014 was due to $2.2 million lower warrant income and a $0.3 million decrease in foreign exchange fee income and $0.2 million decrease in letter of credit fee income due to the seasonal nature of these fees. These decreases in noninterest income were largely offset by $1.7 million higher other noninterest income and $0.2 million higher service charges and fees income. The increase in other noninterest income was primarily driven by $1.4 million higher unrealized gains from our venture capital fund investments and the $0.5 million gain recorded on the transfer of the contract for the management of Square 1 Venture 1, L.P. to a third party.
The $2.6 million and $2.2 million decrease in warrant income in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 and the first quarter of 2014, respectively, was due to changes in the fair value of our equity warrant assets and successful liquidity events, including IPOs, for the clients in which we had taken warrant positions. These variances demonstrate the volatility of this income which is created, in part, by the erratic nature of public equity markets and their receptivity to IPOs.
2
Equity securities received upon the exercise of warrants are either sold or are held as equity securities within our investment portfolio if subject to a lock-up period.
During the second quarter of 2014, we exited $0.8 million in warrants in one publicly traded company, we exercised warrants with a total value of $1.4 million and received equity securities in four publicly traded companies. At June 30, 2014, the fair value of equity securities included in investments obtained through the exercise of warrants and still held was $1.0 million. At June 30, 2014, the valuation of our remaining warrants held was $4.7 million, which included $0.8 million held in five publicly traded companies.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2014 increased $2.5 million, or 17.6%, compared to the second quarter of 2013, and increased $1.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2014. The increase compared to the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to $1.7 million higher personnel expenses in the second quarter of 2014, driven by an increase of 26 full-time equivalent employees and higher incentive compensation expense. The $1.0 million increase compared to the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to an increase in the provision for unfunded credit commitments and data processing fees in the second quarter of 2014 and the impact of lower professional fees in the first quarter of 2014.
Loans and Credit Quality
Average loans grew $268.6 million, or 31.5%, to $1.1 billion and period-end loans increased $245.9 million, or 27.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2013. Average loans grew $51.1 million, or 4.8%, while period-end loans increased $90.3 million, or 8.5%, compared to the first quarter of 2014. The increase in commercial loans occurred in all our major client industry segments. Period-end loans to venture firms increased $30.0 million, while total loans to venture-backed companies, including life sciences, technology and asset-based loans were up $52.5 million, or 5.8%, at June 30, 2014 compared to March 31, 2014.
At June 30, 2014, nonperforming loans totaled $12.3 million, or 1.07%, of total loans compared to $9.6 million, or 0.91%, of total loans for the first quarter of 2014 and $13.8 million, or 1.52%, of total loans for the second quarter of 2013. The increase in nonperforming loans compared to first quarter of 2014 reflects placing two loans on non-accrual status, both of which are fully reserved. The allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans at June 30, 2014 was 175.54%, compared to 198.65% at March 31, 2014, and 131.91% at June 30, 2013. Net loan charge-offs were $0.7 million, or 0.25%, of average loans (annualized) for the second quarter of 2014 compared to net loan charge-offs of $2.2 million, or 0.85%, of average loans (annualized) for the first quarter of 2014 and $2.3 million, or 1.09%, of average loans (annualized) for the second quarter of 2013.
Investments
Average investments grew $294.7 million, or 30.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2013 and grew $117.2 million, or 10.4%, compared to the first quarter of 2014 as a result of strong deposit growth. Our available-for-sale securities portfolio totaled $1.1 billion at June 30, 2014, an increase of $113.0 million, or 11.5%, compared to $980.7 million at March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily purchases of new investment securities, consisting mostly of agency and non-agency mortgage backed securities and other asset-backed securities. Our held to maturity securities portfolio had an amortized cost of $210.2 million at June 30, 2014, an increase of $40.7 million, or 24.0%, compared to $169.5 million at March 31, 2014.
Deposits and Client Investment Funds
Average on-balance sheet deposits grew $548.0 million, or 30.3%, to $2.4 billion, compared to the second quarter of 2013 and increased $208.5 million, or 9.7%, compared to the first quarter of 2014. Our June 30, 2014 period-end deposits increased $505.1 million, or 26.0%, to $2.4 billion from June 30, 2013, and increased $247.0 million, or 11.2%, from March 31, 2014. This increase was primarily due to growth of our client base and a continued strong funding environment for venture-backed firms. Our noninterest-bearing deposits increased $193.7 million, or 14.1%, and our interest-bearing deposits increased $53.3 million, or 6.4%, during the second quarter of 2014. Despite the increase in interest-bearing deposits, average cost of deposits of 0.02%, 0.02% and 0.04% for the second quarter of 2014, the first quarter of 2014 and the second quarter of 2013, respectively, yielded interest expense on deposits of $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the same periods, respectively.
Average off-balance sheet client investment funds grew $324.9 million, or 76.4%, to $750.0 million, compared to the second quarter of 2013, and grew $119.9 million, or 19.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2014. Our period-end client investment funds increased to $780.0 million for the second quarter of 2014 from $411.8 million for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of 89.4%, and from $643.5 million for the first quarter of 2014, an increase of 21.2%, as our clients took advantage of

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information set forth in this release contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures for us are “efficiency ratio,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets” and “net operating income.” Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of our business, these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
The information provided below reconciles each non-GAAP measure to its most comparable GAAP measure.
