CEO COMMENTARY:
Robert Sarver, Chairman and CEO, commented, “We delivered excellent results this quarter marked by robust revenue growth coupled with flat expenses, solid deposit and loan increases and continued healthy credit quality.  Our net income of $80 million and $0.76 EPS for Q2 2017 set a compelling course for returns this year. Tangible book value per share1 for the company increased to $16.71 and return on assets rose to 1.71%.  As expected, expenses leveled during the quarter while revenues increased bringing the operating efficiency ratio1 to 41.2%.  We experienced solid growth as deposits grew $675 million to $16 billion and loans grew $327 million to nearly $14 billion. Our vigilant credit culture resulted in continued stable asset quality with non-performing assets to total assets of 0.32% and net recoveries of $1.2 million for the quarter.”

Income Statement
Net interest income was $192.7 million in the second quarter 2017, an increase of $13.4 million from $179.3 million in the first quarter 2017 and an increase of $29.1 million, or 17.8%, compared to the second quarter 2016. Net interest income in the second quarter 2017 includes $7.1 million of total accretion income from acquired loans, compared to $6.4 million in the first quarter 2017, and $8.2 million in the second quarter 2016.
The Company’s net interest margin in the second quarter 2017 was 4.61%, a decrease from 4.63% in the first quarter 2017, and from 4.63% in the second quarter 2016. The decrease in net interest margin from the first quarter 2017 is attributable an increase in the average cash balance, higher costs on interest-bearing deposits, as well as a decrease in yield from investment securities, which offset the higher yields on loans as a result of rising interest rates. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter 2016 primarily relates to a increases in the cost of interest-bearing deposits and interest expense resulting from the issuance of long-term subordinated debt in June 2016, partially offset by higher yields on loans and securities.
Operating non-interest income was $10.5 million for the second quarter 2017, compared to $9.9 million for the first quarter 2017, and $8.6 million for the second quarter 2016.1  
Net operating revenue was $203.2 million for the second quarter 2017, an increase of $14.0 million, compared to $189.2 million for the first quarter 2017, and an increase of $31.0 million, or 18.0%, compared to $172.2 million for the second quarter 2016.1  
Operating non-interest expense was $88.0 million for the second quarter 2017, compared to $88.3 million for the first quarter 2017, and $77.8 million for the second quarter 2016.1 Operating non-interest expense held relatively flat from the prior quarter. The increase in operating non-interest expense from the second quarter 2016 relates primarily to higher compensation costs resulting from an increase in the number of employees to support growth, as well as higher incentive compensation related to achievement of performance targets. The Company’s operating efficiency ratio1 on a tax equivalent basis was 41.2% for the second quarter 2017, compared to 44.4% for the first quarter 2017, and 43.0% for the second quarter 2016.
Net income was $80.0 million for the second quarter 2017, an increase of $6.6 million from $73.4 million for the first quarter 2017, and an increase of $18.4 million, or 29.8%, from $61.6 million for the second quarter 2016. Earnings per share was $0.76 for the second quarter 2017, compared to $0.70 for the first quarter 2017, and $0.60 for the second quarter 2016.
The Company views its operating pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") as a key metric for assessing the Company’s earnings power, which it defines as net operating revenue less operating non-interest expense. For the second quarter 2017, the Company’s operating PPNR was $115.2 million, up from $100.9 million in the first quarter 2017, and up 21.9% from $94.5 million in the second quarter 2016.1 The non-operating items1 for the second quarter 2017 consisted primarily of a net loss on sales / valuations of repossessed and other assets of $0.2 million.
The Company had 1,628 full-time equivalent employees and 46 offices at June 30, 2017, compared to 1,560 employees and 45 offices at March 31, 2017 and 1,514 employees and 48 offices at June 30, 2016.

Balance Sheet
Gross loans totaled $13.99 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $327 million from $13.66 billion at March 31, 2017, and an increase of $1.11 billion from $12.88 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase from both the prior quarter and from June 30, 2016 is due to organic loan growth. At June 30, 2017, the allowance for credit losses was 1.08% of total organic loans, compared to 1.08% at March 31, 2017, and 1.15% at June 30, 2016.
Consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), the allowance for credit losses is not carried over in an acquisition because acquired loans are recorded at fair value, which discounts the loans based on expected future cash flows. Credit discounts on acquired loans are included as a reduction to gross loans. These discounts totaled $37.8 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $45.1 million at March 31, 2017 and $61.7 million at June 30, 2016.
Deposits totaled $16.03 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $675 million from $15.36 billion at March 31, 2017, and an increase of $1.83 billion from $14.20 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase from both the prior quarter and from June 30, 2016 is the result of organic deposit growth. Non-interest bearing deposits were $6.86 billion at June 30, 2017, compared to $6.11 billion at March 31, 2017, and $5.28 billion at June 30, 2016. Non-interest bearing deposits comprised 42.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2017, compared to 39.8% at March 31, 2017, and 37.1% at June 30, 2016. The proportion of savings and money market balances to total deposits decreased to 38.1% from 40.7% at March 31, 2017, and from 42.3% at June 30, 2016. Certificates of deposit as a percentage of total deposits were 9.9% at June 30, 2017, compared to 10.0% at March 31, 2017, and 11.6% at June 30, 2016. The Company’s ratio of loans to deposits was 87.3% at June 30, 2017, compared to 89.0% at March 31, 2017, and 90.7% at June 30, 2016.
Qualifying debt totaled $375 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $367 million at March 31, 2017, and $382 million at June 30, 2016.
Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2017 was $2.06 billion, compared to $1.97 billion at March 31, 2017, and $1.80 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase from the prior year relates primarily to net income for the respective period, which was partially offset by valuation declines on available-for-sale investment securities.
At June 30, 2017, tangible common equity, net of tax, was 9.5% of tangible assets1 and total capital was 13.3% of risk-weighted assets. The Company’s tangible book value per share1 was $16.71 at June 30, 2017, up 17.3% from June 30, 2016.
Total assets increased to $18.84 billion at June 30, 2017, from $18.12 billion at March 31, 2017, and increased 12.6% from $16.73 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase in total assets from the prior year relates primarily to organic loan growth and an increase in investment securities resulting from increased deposits.
Asset Quality
The provision for credit losses was $3.0 million for the second quarter 2017, compared to $4.3 million for the first quarter 2017, and $2.5 million for the second quarter 2016. Net loan (recoveries) charge-offs in the second quarter 2017 were $(1.2) million, or (0.03)% of average loans (annualized), compared to $1.3 million in net charge-offs, or 0.04%, in the first quarter 2017 and $(0.4) million in net recoveries, or (0.01)%, in the second quarter 2016.
Nonaccrual loans decreased $4.4 million to $30.1 million during the quarter. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest totaled $4.0 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $3.7 million at March 31, 2017, and $7.0 million at June 30, 2016. Loans past due 30-89 days and still accruing interest totaled $4.1 million at quarter end, a decrease from $10.8 million at March 31, 2017, and an increase from $3.5 million at June 30, 2016.
Repossessed assets totaled $31.0 million at quarter end, a decrease of $14.2 million from $45.2 million at March 31, 2017, and a decrease of $18.9 million from $49.8 million at June 30, 2016. Adversely graded loans and non-performing assets totaled $367.8 million at quarter end, a decrease of $20.4 million from $388.2 million at March 31, 2017, and an increase of $4.2 million from $363.6 million at June 30, 2016.
As the Company’s asset quality and capital remain strong, the ratio of classified assets to Tier I capital plus the allowance for credit losses, a common regulatory measure of asset quality, was 12.7% at June 30, 2017, compared to 12.6% at March 31, 2017, and 13.3% at June 30, 2016.1

Segment Highlights
The Company's reportable segments are aggregated primarily based on geographic location, services offered, and markets served. The Company's regional segments, which include Arizona, Nevada, Southern California, and Northern California, provide full service banking and related services to their respective markets. The operations from the regional segments correspond to the following banking divisions: Alliance Bank of Arizona, Bank of Nevada and First Independent Bank, Torrey Pines Bank, and Bridge Bank.
The Company's National Business Lines ("NBL") segment provides specialized banking services to niche markets. The Company's NBL reportable segments include Homeowner Associations ("HOA") Services, Hotel Franchise Finance ("HFF"), Public & Nonprofit Finance, Technology & Innovation, and Other NBLs. These NBLs are managed centrally and are broader in geographic scope than our other segments, though still predominately located within our core market areas. The HOA Services NBL corresponds to the Alliance Association Bank division. The HFF NBL includes the hotel franchise loan portfolio purchased from GE Capital on April 20, 2016. The operations of Public and Nonprofit Finance are combined into one reportable segment. The Technology & Innovation NBL includes the operations of Equity Fund Resources, the Life Sciences Group, the Renewable Resource Group, and Technology Finance. The Other NBLs segment consists of the operations of Corporate Finance, Mortgage Warehouse Lending, and Resort Finance.
The Corporate & Other segment consists of corporate-related items, income and expense items not allocated to our other reportable segments, and inter-segment eliminations.
Key management metrics for evaluating the performance of the Company's Arizona, Nevada, Southern California, Northern California, and NBL segments include loan and deposit growth, asset quality, and pre-tax income.
The regional segments reported gross loan balances of $7.83 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $84 million during the quarter, and an increase of $265 million during the last twelve months. All regional segments, with the exception of Nevada, had loan growth during the quarter, with Arizona contributing the largest growth of $50 million, followed by Northern California and Southern California with growth of $42 million and $32 million, respectively. The growth in loans during the last twelve months was primarily driven by an increase of $192 million in Arizona. Total deposits for the regional segments were $12.50 billion, an increase of $494 million during the quarter, and an increase of $1.16 billion during the last twelve months. Arizona and Northern California generated increased deposits during the quarter of $524 million and $87 million, respectively, which was partially offset by a decrease of $146 million in Southern California. During the last twelve months, with the exception of Southern California, each regional segment generated increased deposits, with Arizona and Nevada contributing increases of $977 million and $302 million, respectively.
Pre-tax income for the regional segments was $84.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $12.3 million from the three months ended March 31, 2017, and an increase of $10.9 million from the three months ended June 30, 2016. All regional segments except Northern California, had an increase in pre-tax income from the prior quarter. Arizona and Nevada generated the largest increases in pre-tax income with increases of $5.8 million and $5.0 million, respectively, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017. With the exception of Northern California, which had a decrease in pre-tax income of $1.2 million, each regional segment had increases in pre-tax income from the three months ended June 30, 2016, with Arizona and Nevada contributing the largest increases of $6.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the regional segments reported total pre-tax income of $157.1 million, an increase of $17.2 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. All regional segments with the exception of Northern California had increases in pre-tax income with Arizona and Nevada contributing the largest increases of $11.8 million and $5.4 million, respectively.
The NBL segments reported gross loan balances of $6.15 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $245 million during the quarter, and an increase of $868 million during the last twelve months. The increase in loans for the NBL segments compared to the prior quarter relates primarily to the Other NBLs segment, which increased loans by $218 million. The increase in loans for the NBL segments over the last twelve months relates primarily to the Other NBLs and Technology & Innovation segments, which increased loans by $675 million, and $101 million, respectively. Total deposits for the NBL segments were $3.46 billion, an increase of $204 million during the quarter, and an increase of $785 million during the last twelve months. During the quarter, the Technology & Innovation and HOA Services segments increased deposits by $130 million and $74 million, respectively. The increase of $785 million during the last twelve months is the result of growth in the HOA Services and Technology & Innovation segments of $476 million and $309 million, respectively.
Pre-tax income for the NBL segments was $42.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $5.1 million from the three months ended March 31, 2017, and an increase of $7.6 million from the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in pre-tax income from the prior quarter relates primarily to the Other NBLs and Technology & Innovation segments as both segments had an increase in pre-tax income of $2.3 million. This increase was offset by a decrease in pre-tax income from the HFF segment of $2.0 million. The increase in pre-tax income compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 was driven by an increase of $2.4 million in both the Public & Nonprofit Finance and Technology & Innovation segments as well as an increase in pre-tax income from the HOA Services segment of $2.3 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in pre-tax income for the HFF segment of $1.0 million. Pre-tax income for the NBL segments for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $80.1 million, an increase of $18.6 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The largest increases in pre-tax income compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 were in the HFF, HOA Services, and Public & Nonprofit Finance segments, which increased $9.6 million, $4.8 million, and $2.6 million, respectively.

(1) Yields on loans and securities have been adjusted to a tax-equivalent basis. The taxable-equivalent adjustment was $10.4 million and $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively.
(2) Included in the yield computation are net loan fees of $10.0 million and accretion on acquired loans of $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $6.6 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, respectively.
(3) Includes non-accrual loans.
(4) Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by total average earning assets.

Under the current guidelines of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, common equity Tier 1 capital consists of common stock, retained earnings, and minority interests in certain subsidiaries, less most other intangible assets.
(7)
Common equity Tier 1 is often expressed as a percentage of risk-weighted assets. Under the risk-based capital framework, a bank's balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of the risk categories defined under new capital guidelines. The aggregated dollar amount in each category is then multiplied by the risk weighting assigned to that category. The resulting weighted values from each category are added together and this sum is the risk-weighted assets total that, as adjusted, comprises the denominator (risk-weighted assets) to determine the common equity Tier 1 ratio. Common equity Tier 1 is divided by the risk-weighted assets to determine the common equity Tier 1 ratio. We believe this non-GAAP ratio provides an important metric with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength.
(8)
We believe this non-GAAP ratio provides an important regulatory metric to analyze asset quality.
