Miami Lakes, Fla. — October 21, 2015 — BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company reported net income of $102.3 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, compared to $53.6 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and $0.43 per diluted share for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015. Excluding the impact of a discrete income tax benefit and related professional fees, net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was $53.8 million, or $0.50 per diluted share.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company reported net income of $195.4 million, or $1.83 per diluted share. The Company reported net income of $157.4 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Earnings per diluted share was $1.37 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, excluding the impact of the discrete income tax benefit and related professional fees.

John Kanas, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “As we have been predicting, increased net interest income driven by strong loan growth led to solid quarterly earnings. Net interest income increased by $15.7 million compared to the third quarter of the prior year and by $8.0 million compared to the immediately preceding quarter.”
 
Performance Highlights

Earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 benefited from a discrete income tax benefit of $49.3 million. The Company recorded $1.3 million in accounting and advisory fees related to this tax benefit during the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
New loans and leases, including equipment under operating lease, grew by $1.2 billion during the third quarter of 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, new loans and leases increased by $3.3 billion.
Total deposits increased by $651 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 to $15.9 billion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, total deposits increased by $2.4 billion.
Net interest income increased by $15.7 million to $189.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 from $173.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Interest income increased by $22.7 million primarily as a result of an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding. Interest expense increased by $7.0 million due primarily to an increase in average interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income grew by $8.0 million compared to the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015.
The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.88% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 compared to 4.58% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 and 3.95% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015. The net interest margin continues to be impacted by the origination of new loans at current market yields lower than those on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition (as defined below).
Book value and tangible book value per common share grew to $21.35 and $20.59, respectively, at September 30, 2015.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
 
For the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $17.8 million and $5.4 million, respectively. Of these amounts, provisions of $16.7 million and $6.3 million, respectively, related to new loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $34.4 million and $21.0 million, respectively. Of these amounts, provisions of $33.7 million and $20.2 million, respectively, related to new loans.

The provision for loan losses for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was impacted by continued growth in the new loan portfolio and increases in specific reserves for loans individually determined to be impaired. A specific reserve of approximately $6.3 million was recognized in the quarter ended September 30, 2015 related to one commercial relationship.

The ratio of non-performing, non-covered loans to total non-covered loans was 0.66% and 0.29% at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The ratio of total non-performing loans to total loans was 0.67% at September 30, 2015 and 0.31% at December 31, 2014. The substantial majority of the increase in these ratios from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015 was attributable to one commercial relationship. At September 30, 2015, non-performing assets totaled $116.6 million, including $12.6 million of other real estate owned (“OREO”) and other foreclosed assets, compared to $52.8 million, including $13.8 million of OREO, at December 31, 2014. Non-covered, non-performing assets totaled $99.2 million, or 0.44% of total assets, at September 30, 2015. The ratio of the allowance for non-covered loan and lease losses to non-performing, non-covered loans was 120.03% and 281.54% at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average non-covered loans was 0.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to 0.08% for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Deposits
 
At September 30, 2015, deposits totaled $15.9 billion compared to $13.5 billion at December 31, 2014.  Deposits in New York totaled $3.0 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The average cost of total deposits was 0.61% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to 0.60% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015 and 0.63% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Excluding the impact of hedge accounting and accretion of fair value adjustments, the average cost of total deposits was 0.58% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The average cost of interest bearing deposits was 0.74% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 and for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015 compared to 0.78% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The average cost of deposits was 0.60% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to 0.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Net interest income
 
Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 increased to $189.0 million from $173.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Net interest income was $542.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to $505.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The most significant factor contributing to the increase in interest income was an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding, partially offset by a decline in the yield on loans. Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in average interest bearing liabilities, offset in part by a decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities.
 
The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.88% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 compared to 4.58% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 and 3.95% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2015. Net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015,

compared to 4.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Significant factors impacting this expected trend in net interest margin for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included:
 
The tax-equivalent yield on loans declined to 5.27% and 5.42% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 6.46% and 6.65% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily because new loans, originated at yields lower than those on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition, comprised a greater percentage of total loans.
The tax-equivalent yield on new loans was 3.48% and 3.49% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 3.58% for both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
The tax-equivalent yield on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition increased to 30.75% and 28.69% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 from 28.68% and 27.07% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. An increase in the yield due to improvements in expected cash flows was partially offset by decreases in proceeds from the sale of residential loans from a pool of ACI loans with a zero carrying value.
The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities decreased to 2.65% and 2.54% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 from 2.72% and 2.79% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
The average rate on interest bearing liabilities declined to 0.83% and 0.82%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 from 0.89% and 0.88% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to lower rates on time deposits and FHLB advances.
The Company’s net interest margin continues to be impacted by reclassifications from non-accretable difference to accretable yield on ACI loans.  Non-accretable difference at acquisition represented the difference between the total contractual payments due and the cash flows expected to be received on these loans.  The accretable yield on ACI loans represented the amount by which undiscounted expected future cash flows exceeded the recorded investment in the loans.  As the Company’s expected cash flows from ACI loans have increased since the FSB Acquisition, the Company has reclassified amounts from non-accretable difference to accretable yield.
Changes in accretable yield on ACI loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 were as follows (in thousands):

Non-interest income
 
Non-interest income totaled $31.2 million and $73.0 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $14.5 million and $65.1 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
 
The consolidated statement of income line items Provision for (recovery of) loan losses for covered loans; Income from resolution of covered assets, net; Gain on sale of covered loans, net; and Loss (gain) related to covered OREO relate to transactions in the covered assets. The line item Net loss on FDIC indemnification represents the mitigating impact of FDIC indemnification on gains and losses arising from these transactions in the covered assets. The impact on pre-tax earnings of these transactions, net of FDIC indemnification, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $4.1 million and $13.2 million, respectively, compared to $2.3 million and $24.5 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
  
The variance in the impact on pre-tax earnings of these transactions in covered assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related primarily to sales of covered loans. The Company recognized net gains on the sale of covered loans of $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and a related net loss on FDIC indemnification of $(21.5) million, resulting in a pre-tax impact of $5.2 million. For the nine months ended

September 30, 2014, the Company recognized net gains on the sale of covered loans of $22.6 million, and a related net loss on FDIC indemnification of $(7.4) million, resulting in a pre-tax impact of $15.2 million. The gain recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related primarily to the sale of covered commercial loans prior to the termination of the Commercial Shared Loss Agreement with the FDIC. The net loss on FDIC indemnification related to covered loan sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 did not bear the 80% relationship to the net gain on sale that might generally be expected primarily because indemnification is determined based on the unpaid principal balance of the loans sold rather than carrying value and because proceeds in excess of the unpaid principal balance are not subject to sharing with the FDIC.

Increases in income from lease financing for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 corresponded to growth in the portfolio of equipment under operating lease.

Non-interest expense
 
Non-interest expense totaled $132.3 million and $369.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $108.9 million and $318.0 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The most significant component of the increase in non-interest expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was the increase in amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset.
  
Amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset was $28.4 million and $76.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $17.9 million and $48.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The amortization rate increased to 13.49% and 11.52%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 from 6.72% and 5.88%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. As the expected cash flows from ACI loans have increased, expected cash flows from the FDIC indemnification asset have decreased, resulting in continued increases in the amortization rate.

Professional fees for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 includes $1.3 million in accounting and advisory fees related to a discrete income tax benefit.
 
Provision for income taxes
 
The effective income tax rate was (46.1)% and 7.6%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to 27.0% and 32.1%, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The effective income tax rate for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 reflects a discrete income tax benefit of $49.3 million. The tax benefit, predicated on guidance issued by the IRS in 2015, relates to the Company's ability to claim additional tax basis in certain assets acquired in the FSB Acquisition. In addition, $5.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of reserves for uncertain tax liabilities were released in the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, due to the lapse of the statute of limitations related thereto.

Kanas, in 2009.  On May 21, 2009, BankUnited acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the non-brokered deposits and substantially all other liabilities of BankUnited, FSB from the FDIC, in a transaction referred to as the FSB Acquisition.  Concurrently with the FSB Acquisition, BankUnited entered into two loss sharing agreements, or the Loss Sharing Agreements, which covered certain legacy assets, including the entire legacy loan portfolio and OREO, and certain purchased investment securities.  Assets covered by the Loss Sharing Agreements are referred to as “covered assets” (or, in certain cases, “covered loans”). The Loss Sharing Agreements do not apply to subsequently purchased or originated loans (“new loans”) or other assets. Effective May 22, 2014 and consistent with the terms of the Loss Sharing Agreements, loss share coverage was terminated for those commercial loans and OREO and certain investment securities that were previously covered under the Loss Sharing Agreements.  Pursuant to the terms of the Loss Sharing Agreements, the covered assets are subject to a stated loss threshold whereby the FDIC will reimburse BankUnited for 80% of losses, including certain interest and expenses, up to the $4.0 billion stated threshold and 95% of losses in excess of the $4.0 billion stated threshold.  The Company’s current estimate of cumulative losses on the covered assets is approximately $3.9 billion.  The Company has received $2.6 billion from the FDIC in reimbursements under the Loss Sharing Agreements for claims filed for incurred losses as of September 30, 2015.
