Los Angeles, California . . . PacWest Bancorp (Nasdaq: PACW) today announced net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2018 of $115.0 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, compared to net earnings for the third quarter of 2018 of $116.3 million, or $0.94 per diluted share.  Net earnings for the full year 2018 were $465.3 million, or $3.72 per diluted share, compared to net earnings for the full year 2017 of $357.8 million, or $2.91 per diluted share.

 

Matt Wagner, President and CEO, commented, “We finished the year with strong growth in both loans and deposits and continued improvement in our credit quality metrics. Our fourth quarter results produced a return on assets of 1.84% and a return on tangible equity of 21.23%.”

 

Mr. Wagner continued, “Our net earnings for the full year 2018 increased 30% over the prior year to $465.3 million. The increase was driven largely by the benefits of tax reform and lower credit costs, while revenue growth significantly outpaced noninterest expense growth.  Our tax equivalent net interest margin remained above 5% for the full year 2018 and continued cost controls resulted in our efficiency ratio being unchanged from the prior year at 41%.”

 

Mr. Wagner continued, “We are pleased with the fourth quarter’s organic loan and core deposit growth and will work to carry that momentum into 2019. We will also retire the division names and branding of CapitalSource and Square 1 Bank and replace them with the National Lending and Venture Banking groups under one brand as Pacific Western Bank.”

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income increased by $1.4 million to $261.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $260.3 million for the third quarter of 2018 due to a higher yield on average loans and leases and a higher balance of average loans and leases, offset partially by higher deposit costs.  The tax equivalent yield on average loans and leases was 6.27% for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to 6.20% for the third quarter of 2018. The increase in the yield on average loans and leases was due principally to higher coupon interest.

 

The tax equivalent NIM was 4.91% in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to 4.99% for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in the NIM was due mainly to higher deposit and borrowing costs, partially offset by a higher yield on average loans and leases and a higher yield on investment securities.

 

The cost of average total deposits increased to 0.62% for the fourth quarter of 2018 from 0.46% for the third quarter of 2018 due to higher rates paid on deposits in conjunction with increased market interest rates.

 

Provision for Credit Losses

 

The provision for credit losses increased by $0.5 million to $12.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $11.5 million for the third quarter of 2018.

Noninterest Income

 

Noninterest income decreased by $3.4 million to $33.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $36.9 million for the third quarter of 2018 due mainly to a $4.2 million decrease in dividends and gains on equity investments, a $1.6 million decrease in warrant income, and a $1.3 million decrease in other commissions and fees, offset partially by a $3.4 million increase in other income.  Dividends and gains on equity investments decreased mainly due to lower realized gains on investments sold and decreased fair values of investments still held. Warrant income decreased due to lower realized gains on exercised warrants as the third quarter included a $3.1 million gain on a warrant in a company that completed an IPO. Other commissions and fees decreased mostly due to lower prepayment and other loan-related fees.  Other income increased primarily due to higher miscellaneous income from borrower settlements and higher BOLI income from a death benefit received.

Noninterest Expense

 

Noninterest expense increased by $1.1 million to $129.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $128.1 million for the third quarter of 2018 attributable primarily to a $3.7 million increase in other expense, offset partially by a $3.0 million decrease in compensation expense. Other expense increased due to the $2.1 million write-off of the Square 1 trademark asset as a result of our plan to retire the Square 1 Bank name and increased employee expense due to executive relocation costs.  Compensation expense decreased due mostly to lower stock compensation expense, lower bonus expense, and lower commissions expense as a result of the decreased warrant income.

Income Taxes

 

The overall effective income tax rate was 25.3% for the fourth quarter of 2018 and 26.2% for the third quarter of 2018.  The decrease in the fourth quarter effective tax rate was due primarily to a change in the state apportionment method applied by the state of Maryland.  The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2018 was 26.5% while the full year 2019 is estimated to be in the range of 27-28%.

 

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

 

Loans and Leases

 

Loans and leases held for investment, net of deferred fees, increased by $727.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 to $18.0 billion at December 31, 2018.  The net increase was driven mainly by production of $1.6 billion and disbursements of $1.2 billion, offset partially by payoffs of $1.1 billion and paydowns of $920.6 million.  For the year ended December 31, 2018 loans and leases held for investment, net of deferred fees, increased by $985.0 million or 5.8%.

The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans and leases held for investment decreased to 0.94% at December 31, 2018 from 1.03% at September 30, 2018 as certain specific reserves in place at September 30, 2018 were charged off during the fourth quarter, lowering the specific reserves on impaired loans at December 31, 2018 compared to September 30, 2018.

 

Gross charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $25.3 million and included $23.4 million for venture capital loans, of which $20.0 million related to two loans, and $1.7 million for other commercial loans.  Gross charge-offs for the third quarter of 2018 were $3.3 million and included $1.1 million for venture capital loans, $0.7 million for real estate mortgage loans, and $0.7 million for asset-based loans. Recoveries for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $5.4 million and included $3.1 million for venture capital loans and $1.7 million for other commercial loans.   Recoveries for the third quarter of 2018 were $1.6 million and included $1.0 million for venture capital loans.

 

For the full year 2018, net charge-offs were $43.8 million and included $24.2 million for venture capital loans, a decrease from the full year 2017 net charge-offs of $68.7 million that included $36.0 million for venture capital loans.  This resulted in a decrease in net charge-offs to average loans for the venture capital portfolio from 1.77% in 2017 to 1.17% in 2018.

 

For the fourth quarter of 2018 and third quarter of 2018, annualized net charge-offs to average loans and leases were 0.46% and 0.04%.  For the full years 2018 and 2017, net charge-offs to average loans and leases were 0.26% and 0.43%.

(1) Nonaccrual loans include guaranteed amounts of $11.2 million at December 31, 2018 and $13.5 million at September 30, 2018.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2018, nonaccrual loans decreased by $33.6 million and classified loans decreased by $23.3 million.  These decreases were primarily due to the foreclosure and sale during the quarter of a $12.2 million commercial real estate loan (which was our only exposure to traditional malls) and the charge-off of two venture capital loans carried at $22.5 million that were classified and on nonaccrual status at September 30, 2018.

Special mention loans and leases decreased by $98.7 million in the fourth quarter due primarily to the payoff of two loans totaling $50 million and a $36 million loan being upgraded to pass status.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

 

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial disclosures for: (1) return on average tangible equity, (2) tangible common equity ratio, and (3) tangible book value per share. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance.  In particular, the use of return on average tangible equity, tangible common equity ratio, and tangible book value per share is prevalent among banking regulators, investors and analysts.  Accordingly, we disclose the non-GAAP measures in addition to the related GAAP measures of: (1) return on average equity, (2) equity to assets ratio, and (3) book value per share.

 

The tables below present the reconciliations of these GAAP financial measures to the related non-GAAP financial measures:
