SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico--(BUSINESS WIRE)--First BanCorp. (the “Corporation”) (NYSE: FBP), the bank holding company for FirstBank Puerto Rico (“FirstBank” or “the Bank”), today reported a net loss of $34.1 million for the second quarter of 2015, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to net income of $25.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015 and net income of $21.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014.
For the second quarter of 2015, the pre-tax loss was $43.9 million compared to pre-tax income of $33.7 million for the first quarter of 2015 and pre-tax income of $20.9 million for the second quarter of 2014. The pre-tax loss for the second quarter of 2015 includes:
- A $48.7 million pre-tax loss on a bulk sale of assets, mostly comprised of non-performing and adversely classified commercial loans, including transaction expenses.
- A $12.9 million other-than-temporary impairment on Puerto Rico Government securities.
- Pre-tax costs of $2.6 million related to the conversion of loan and deposit accounts acquired from Doral to the FirstBank systems completed in the second quarter.
Adjusted pre-tax income for the second quarter of 2015 was $20.2 million, excluding the aforementioned items, compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $22.3 million for the first quarter of 2015, excluding the $13.4 million pre-tax bargain purchase gain on assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Doral and the $2.1 million of pre-tax acquisition and conversion costs incurred in the first quarter.
Aurelio Alemán, President and Chief Executive Officer of First BanCorp., commented: “Throughout the quarter we updated the market on several important accomplishments: our consent order which had been in place with the FDIC for five years was lifted; and, we executed an accelerated de-risking transaction that improved our asset quality metrics to levels we have not seen since 2009. We also posted our results for the Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test which show that even in a severely adverse economic environment, which we are not currently in, our capital ratios exceed the well-capitalized thresholds throughout the nine-quarter horizon. In addition, during the quarter we successfully completed the integration and rebranding of the acquired Doral branches and mortgage portfolio.
We posted a net loss for the quarter of $34.1 million due largely to the bulk sale transaction. Our profitability was also impacted this quarter by an OTTI charge of $12.9 million that we took on our government securities. Our deposit base remains stable and our cost of deposits are at their lowest level in recent years, our loan originations improved and delinquencies are stable across all of our portfolios.
The Puerto Rico economic situation continues to face hurdles, we know how to operate in an adverse economy and have been doing so for years. We are prepared to manage through more challenging economic conditions and as our stress tests reflect we have the capital strength and market position to not only do so but to take advantage of opportunities that also appear in challenging times. The reality is that the franchise has never been stronger and poised to increase shareholder value. We encourage our government officials to work together with the private industry and provide more clarity to the market in order to remove uncertainty and avoid further economic deterioration.
That said, we have a plan and we are well-prepared to execute. The successful integration of our recent acquisition and de-risking will drive bottom line results in the quarters to come.”
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted non-interest income, adjusted non-interest expenses, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, adjusted net interest income and margin, certain capital ratios, and certain other financial measures that exclude the effect of the bulk sale of assets, the other-than-temporary impairment on Puerto Rico Government debt securities, and the bargain purchase gain and acquisition and conversion costs related to the Doral transaction, and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying tables (Exhibit A), which are an integral part of this press release.
RECENT EVENTS
Bulk Sale of Assets
As previously announced, during the second quarter of 2015 the Corporation completed the sale of commercial and construction loans with a book value of $147.5 million (principal balance of $196.5 million), comprised mostly of non-performing and adversely classified loans, as well as OREO with a book value of $2.9 million, in a cash transaction. The sale price of this bulk sale was $87.3 million. Approximately $15.3 million of reserves had been allocated to the loans. This transaction resulted in total charge-offs of $61.4 million and an incremental pre-tax loss of $48.7 million, including $0.9 million in professional service fees directly attributable to the bulk sale.
The inclusion of the $61.4 million of charge-offs from the bulk sale in the historical loss rates had an impact of approximately $15.5 million on the general reserve for loan losses determined for loans collectively evaluated for impairment.
Doral Bank Transaction
During the second quarter of 2015, the Corporation successfully completed the system conversion of loan and deposit accounts acquired from Doral to the FirstBank systems and recorded approximately $2.6 million of pre-tax conversion costs in the second quarter compared to $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2015. In addition, the Corporation incurred approximately $2.4 million in interim servicing costs in the second quarter compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015. As previously reported, the Corporation recorded in the first quarter of 2015 a $13.4 million pre-tax bargain purchase gain in connection with assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Doral.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment on Puerto Rico Government Obligations
During the second quarter of 2015, the Corporation recorded a $12.9 million other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on three Puerto Rico Government debt securities held by the Corporation as part of its available for sale securities portfolio, specifically bonds of the Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rico Public Buildings Authority. The credit-related impairment loss estimate is based on the probability of default and loss severity in the event of default in consideration of the debt securities credit ratings and the latest available information about the Puerto Rico Government’s financial condition, including the Puerto Rico Government’s intentions to restructure its outstanding bond obligations. Given the significant uncertainty of a debt restructuring process, the Corporation cannot be certain that future impairment charges will not be required on these securities. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation owns Puerto Rico Government debt securities in the aggregate amount of $52.7 million (net of the $12.9 million OTTI), carried on its books at a fair value of $34.6 million.
The following table shows a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures (“adjusted net charge-offs,” “adjusted provision for loan and lease losses,” “adjusted non-interest income,” “adjusted non-interest expenses,” and “adjusted pre-tax income”), which reflect the exclusion of the realized loss on the bulk sale of assets, the OTTI charge on Puerto Rico Government debt securities, system conversion costs related to the Doral transaction and the bargain purchase gain, to the corresponding measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

ADJUSTED PRE-TAX, PRE-PROVISION INCOME TRENDS
Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is useful in analyzing performance. This metric is earnings adjusted to exclude tax expense, the provision for loan and lease losses, securities gains or losses and impairments, fair value adjustments on derivatives and equity in earnings or loss of unconsolidated entity up until the second quarter of 2014 when the value of the investment became zero. In addition, from time to time, earnings are adjusted also for items judged by management to be outside of ordinary banking activities and/or for items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that management believes that a complete analysis of the Corporation’s performance requires consideration also of results that exclude such amounts (for additional information about this non-GAAP financial measure, see “Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income” in “Basis of Presentation”).
The following table reconciles income before income taxes to adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income for the last five quarters including adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income of $47.7 million in the second quarter of 2015, down $7.7 million from the prior quarter:

The decrease in adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income from the 2015 first quarter primarily reflected:
- A $9.4 million increase in adjusted non-interest expenses of $99.1 million for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to $89.6 million for the first quarter of 2015, primarily reflecting the impact of interim servicing costs and other recurring operating expenses related to the acquired Doral branches, and an increase in OREO losses, employees’ compensation, and professional service fees expenses. See Non-Interest Expenses section below for additional information.
Adjusted non-interest expenses exclude certain costs that were considered non-recurring such as expenses and losses directly attributable to the bulk sale of assets in the second quarter of 2015 and acquisition and conversion costs related to the Doral transaction. See Recent Events-Non-GAAP Reconciliation section above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the corresponding GAAP measure.
Partially offset by:
- A $0.8 million increase in adjusted non-interest income of $20.1 million for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to $19.3 million for the first quarter of 2015, mainly due to an increase in revenues from the mortgage banking business and the full quarter contribution of service charges on deposits and fees associated with deposits assumed from Doral. See Non-Interest Income section below for additional information.
Adjusted non-interest income excludes the loss on a commercial mortgage loan held for sale included in the bulk sale of assets completed in the second quarter of 2015, the bargain purchase gain on assets acquired and deposits assumed from Doral in the first quarter of 2015 and the OTTI charge on Puerto Rico Government debt securities. See Recent Events-Non-GAAP Reconciliation section above for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the corresponding GAAP measure.
- A $0.8 million increase in net interest income primarily reflecting the full quarter contribution of the residential mortgage loan portfolio acquired from Doral in late February 2015 and a decrease in interest expense achieved through the reduction in the average balance of brokered CDs and the benefit from the offsetting accounting for a reverse repurchase agreement entered into in the second quarter, partially offset by a higher premium amortization expense on U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and the decrease in interest income earned on the commercial and consumer loan portfolios. See Net Interest Income discussion below for additional information.
NET INTEREST INCOME
The following table reconciles net interest income in accordance with GAAP to net interest income excluding fair value adjustments (unrealized gains in the table) on derivatives (“valuations”) and the $2.5 million prepayment penalty collected on a commercial mortgage loan paid off in the fourth quarter of 2014, and net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis. Net interest income, excluding valuations and the aforementioned $2.5 million prepayment penalty, and net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis are non-GAAP measures. (See “Basis of Presentation – Net Interest Income, Excluding Valuations and Prepayment Penalty, and on a Tax-Equivalent Basis” below for additional information.) The table also reconciles net interest spread and net interest margin on a GAAP basis to these items excluding valuations and the prepayment penalty, and on a tax-equivalent basis.

Net interest income amounted to $126.5 million, an increase of $0.8 million when compared to the first quarter of 2015. The net interest margin remained unchanged at 4.18% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2015. The increase in net interest income was mainly due to:
- A $2.8 million increase in interest income on residential mortgage loans primarily reflecting the full quarter contribution of loans acquired from Doral in late February 2015. Interest income on this residential mortgage loan portfolio acquired from Doral amounted to $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared to $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2015, an increase of $3.0 million.
- A $1.7 million decrease in total interest expense primarily driven by: (i) a $1.0 million decrease in interest expense on repurchase agreements mainly reflecting the effect of the netting in accordance with GAAP of the $0.8 million interest income earned on a $200 million reverse repurchase agreement entered into in April 2015 as part of an agreement with an existing counterparty against interest expense on repurchase agreements with such counterparty, and the full quarter impact of the $400 million repurchase agreements restructured in the first quarter, and (ii) a $0.7 million decrease in interest expense on deposits (net of a $0.2 million increase associated with the full quarter impact of deposits acquired from Doral) mainly related to the $298.7 million decrease in the average balance of brokered CDs and lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits.
Partially offset by:
- A $1.6 million decrease in interest income on U.S. agency MBS mainly due to a higher premium amortization expense as prepayment speeds accelerated during the second quarter.
- A $1.5 million decrease in interest income on commercial and construction loans adversely impacted by a decrease of $0.6 million related to interest income recorded in the first quarter on loans sold as part of the bulk sale and approximately $0.9 million in interest payments received in the second quarter from the PREPA credit facility accounted for on a cost recovery basis.
- A $0.8 million decrease in interest income on consumer loans driven by a $43.8 million decrease in the average volume of loans, primarily auto loans.
PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
The provision for loan and lease losses for the second quarter of 2015 was $74.3 million, including the $46.9 million charge associated with the bulk sale transaction, compared to $33.0 million for the first quarter of 2015. Excluding the $46.9 million charge related to the bulk sale, the provision decreased by $5.7 million driven by the following variances:
- An $11.5 million decrease in the provision for consumer loans mainly due to lower historical loss rates that reflect, among other things, improvements in charge-off trends and declining loss severity rates on auto loans. Consumer loans net charge-offs decreased by $4.8 million in the second quarter, as compared to the first quarter of 2015, driven by loan loss recoveries of $2.7 million on the sale of certain auto and personal loans that had been fully charged-off in prior periods. The decrease in the provision also reflects the decline in the size of this portfolio.
Partially offset by:
- A $4.0 million increase in the provision for construction and commercial loans driven by a $15.5 million increase to the general reserves as a result of the incorporation of the $61.4 million of charge-offs from the bulk sale in the historical loss rates used to estimate inherent losses for non-impaired loans, partially offset by a decrease of approximately $8.0 million related to adjustments to general reserve factors applied to some asset classifications for improvements in loans’ migration experience and a $2.9 million increase in loan loss recoveries that was mainly associated with loans in the Florida region.
- A $1.9 million increase in the provision for residential mortgage loans driven by a reserve of $3.1 million established in the second quarter attributable to the purchased credit-impaired loans acquired from Doral in May 2014. The reserve is driven by a revision to the expected cash flows of the portfolio for the remaining term of the loan pool based on market conditions. This was partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in residential mortgage loans net charge-offs.
See Credit Quality discussion below for additional information regarding the allowance for loan and lease losses, including variances in charge-offs and loss recoveries.

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2015 amounted to $6.7 million, compared to $32.7 million for the first quarter of 2015. Excluding the $12.9 million OTTI charge on Puerto Rico Government debt securities in the second quarter of 2015, the $0.6 million pre-tax loss on a commercial mortgage loan held for sale included in the bulk sale of assets in the second quarter of 2015 and the $13.4 million pre-tax bargain purchase gain on the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Doral recorded in the first quarter of 2015, adjusted non-interest income increased by $0.8 million. The increase was primarily due to:
- A $1.1 million increase in revenues from the mortgage banking business driven by a higher volume of sales in the secondary market. Loans sold and securitized in the secondary market to U.S. government-sponsored entities amounted to $121.2 million with a related gain of $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $85.3 million with a related gain of $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2015. In addition, there was a $0.6 million increase in income from mortgage hedging activities related to gains/losses on to-be-announced (TBAs) MBS forward contracts.
- A $0.6 million increase in service charges on deposits and an increase of $0.3 million in other fees reflecting the full quarter contribution of deposits assumed from Doral late in February 2015.
Partially offset by:
- A $1.5 million decrease in income from insurance commissions, mainly reflecting seasonal contingent commissions received in the first quarter by the insurance agency based on the prior year’s production of insurance policies.

Non-interest expenses in the second quarter of 2015 amounted to $102.8 million, an increase of $11.1 million from $91.7 million for the first quarter of 2015. Excluding non-recurring acquisition and conversion costs related to the Doral transaction of $2.6 million and $2.1 million for the second quarter and first quarter of 2015, respectively, and $1.2 million of expenses and losses directly associated with the bulk sale transaction in the second quarter, non-interest expenses increased to $99.1 million for the second quarter of 2015 from $89.6 million in the first quarter. The main drivers of the increase were:
- A $2.6 million increase in adjusted professional service fees due to, among other things, a $1.2 million increase in interim servicing costs related to loans and deposits acquired from Doral, as the conversion to the FirstBank systems was completed two months into the second quarter. The Corporation incurred approximately $2.4 million in interim servicing costs in the second quarter compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015. Upon completion of the conversion, the ongoing costs related to the processing and maintenance of these accounts are lower. In addition, there was an increase of $1.3 million in consulting and legal expenses for special projects as well as strategic, stress testing and capital planning matters that are not expected to be incurred on an ongoing basis.
- A $2.2 million increase in adjusted employees’ compensation and benefit expenses mainly due to salary merit increases that became effective early in the second quarter that accounted for approximately $1.4 million of the increase, including $0.2 million of lump-sum payments, and the full quarter impact of personnel costs related to branches acquired from Doral that account for approximately $0.4 million of the increase. In addition, there was an increase of approximately $0.4 million for one additional business day in the second quarter, as compared to the first quarter of 2015.
- A $2.0 million increase in adjusted OREO losses driven by higher write-downs to commercial OREO properties. Write-downs on OREO properties amounted to $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily related to one commercial property in Puerto Rico, compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2015. In addition there was a $0.9 million decrease in realized gains at the time of disposition, as the previous quarter included a gain of $1.3 million on the sale of certain commercial OREO properties. These variances were partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in rental income on OREO properties.
- A $1.0 million increase in adjusted business promotion expenses, primarily attributable to the seasonality of marketing campaigns.
- A $0.8 million increase in adjusted occupancy and equipment costs primarily related to the full quarter impact of rental, depreciation and maintenance expenses associated with the acquired Doral branches that account for $0.6 million of the increase.
- A $0.8 million aggregate increase in communications and other operating expenses in the table above, including increases of $0.3 million in the core deposit intangible amortization and $0.3 million in communications, supplies, and processing expenses that reflect the full quarter impact of the acquired Doral branches.
See Recent Events-Non-GAAP Reconciliation section above for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted professional service fees, adjusted employees’ compensation and benefit expenses, adjusted OREO losses, adjusted business promotion expenses and adjusted occupancy and equipment costs, to the corresponding GAAP measures.
INCOME TAXES
The Corporation recorded an income tax benefit for the second quarter of 2015 of $9.8 million compared to an income tax expense of $8.0 million for the first quarter of 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation had a net deferred tax asset of $310.4 million (net of a valuation allowance of $204.9 million, including a valuation allowance of $179.7 million against the deferred tax assets of the Corporation’s banking subsidiary, FirstBank).

Credit quality metrics variances:
- Total non-performing assets decreased by $109.9 million to $644.4 million as of June 30, 2015, compared to $754.3 million as of March 31, 2015. Total non-performing loans, including non-performing loans held for sale, decreased by $106.5 million, or 17%, from the first quarter of 2015. The decrease in non-performing assets was primarily attributable to the bulk sale of assets that included $91.9 million of non-performing commercial and construction loans and $2.9 million of OREO. Excluding the impact of the bulk sale, non-performing assets decreased by $15.2 million primarily due to certain commercial loans brought current, charge-offs and cash collections.
- Inflows to non-performing loans held for investment were $44.9 million, a decrease of $73.8 million, or 62%, compared to inflows of $118.7 million in the first quarter of 2015 that included the $75.0 million credit facility of PREPA. Excluding the aforementioned $75.0 million credit facility to PREPA, total inflows in the second quarter remained relatively flat compared to the first quarter of 2015.
- Adversely classified commercial and construction loans held for investment decreased by $93.3 million to $411.0 million, or 19% from the first quarter of 2015, driven by the bulk sale of assets that included $146.6 million of adversely classified loans, partially offset by the migration of approximately $44.4 million of syndicated commercial loan participations to adverse classification categories.
- The OREO balance decreased by $0.5 million, driven by sales of $9.1 million and valuation adjustments of $6.6 million, partially offset by additions of $15.2 million in the second quarter of 2015.
- Total Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) held for investment were $634.8 million as of June 30, 2015, down $70.4 million, or 10% from March 31, 2015, driven by the bulk sale of assets that included $89.4 million of TDRs. Approximately $400.8 million of total TDRs held for investment were in accrual status as of June 30, 2015.

- The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans held for investment was 2.40% as of June 30, 2015, a slight increase from the 2.38% as of March 31, 2015. The ratio of the allowance to non-performing loans held for investment was 47.79% as of June 30, 2015 compared to 40.11% as of March 31, 2015. The increase in the ratio is driven by the reduction in non-performing loans as a result of the bulk sale of assets completed during the second quarter.
The following table sets forth information concerning the composition of the Corporation’s allowance for loan and lease losses as of June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015 by loan category and by whether the allowance and related provisions were calculated individually for impairment purposes or through a general valuation allowance:

The ratios above are based on annualized net charge-offs and are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent periods.
Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2015 were $78.8 million, or an annualized 3.35% of average loans, including $61.4 million of charge-offs related to the bulk sale of assets. Excluding the impact of charge-offs related to the bulk sale, total net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2015 were $17.4 million, or an annualized 0.75% of average loans, compared to $29.3 million, or an annualized 1.25%, in the first quarter of 2015. The decrease was mainly related to:
- A $4.8 million decrease in consumer loan net charge-offs, including the effect of $2.7 million of loss recoveries on the sale of certain loans that had been fully charged-off in prior periods.
- A $5.2 million decrease in commercial and construction loan net charge-offs, primarily related to the commercial and industrial loan portfolio in Puerto Rico. In addition, the decrease reflects a $1.6 million increase in loan loss recoveries in the Florida region.
- A $1.8 million decrease in residential mortgage loan net charge-offs.
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets were approximately $12.6 billion as of June 30, 2015, down $569.1 million from March 31, 2015.
The decrease was mainly due to:
- A $269.4 million decrease in total loans driven by the $147.5 million of loans included in the bulk sale of assets, an additional $84.6 million decrease in commercial and construction loans that included $20.0 million sold in a participation and certain large repayments in Puerto Rico, and a $38.0 million decrease in consumer loans.
Total loan originations, including refinancings, renewals, and draws from existing revolving and non-revolving commitments, amounted to approximately $767.0 million, compared to $688.9 million in the first quarter of 2015. The increase was mainly due to a $44.8 million increase in residential mortgage loan originations, primarily refinancing and conforming loan originations, and a $58.2 million increase in commercial loan originations in Florida. These figures exclude the credit card utilization activity.
- A $302.0 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents primarily due to funds used for the $200 million reverse repurchase agreement entered into in April 2015 under a master netting arrangement. As mentioned above, this agreement qualifies for offsetting accounting, thus, the reverse repurchase agreement was netted against repurchase agreements in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The remainder of the variance is primarily linked to the decrease in brokered CDs.
- An $8.6 million decrease in investment securities driven by a $15.5 million decrease in the fair value of U.S. agency MBS, a $6.9 million decrease in the fair value of Puerto Rico Government debt securities, the redemption of a $12.0 million U.S. agency debt obligation prior to maturity, and MBS prepayments of approximately $68 million, partially offset by purchases of approximately $97 million (average yield of 2.09%) of U.S. agency securities.
Total liabilities were approximately $10.9 billion as of June 30, 2015, down $531.6 million from March 31, 2015.
The decrease was mainly due to:
- A $138.5 million decrease in deposits, excluding government deposits and brokered CDs, primarily in the Florida region that accounted for $103.9 million of the decrease.
- A $241.7 million decrease in brokered CDs.
- The netting of the $200 million reverse repurchase agreement against a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, as described above.
Partially offset by:
- A $43.7 million increase in government deposits, primarily transactional accounts of municipalities in Puerto Rico.
Total stockholders’ equity amounted to $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2015, a decrease of $37.5 million from March 31, 2015, mainly driven by:
- The net loss of $34.1 million reported in the second quarter.
- A decrease of $10.2 million in other comprehensive income mainly attributable to the $15.5 million decrease in the fair value of U.S. agency MBS.
Partially offset by:
- The exchange of $5.3 million of trust preferred securities for shares of the Corporation’s common stock. During the second quarter of 2015, the Corporation exchanged trust preferred securities with a liquidation value of $5.3 million for 852,831 shares of the Corporation’s common stock.
On January 1, 2015, the Basel III rules became effective, subject to on-going, multi-year transition provisions primarily related to regulatory deductions and adjustments impacting common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital. The Corporation’s common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios under the Basel III rules as of June 30, 2015 (including the 2015 phase-in of regulatory capital transition provisions) were 16.37%, 16.37%, 19.44% and 11.94%, respectively, compared to common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 16.15%, 16.15%, 19.20%, and 12.16%, respectively, as of the end of the first quarter of 2015.
Meanwhile, the common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios as of June 30, 2015 of our banking subsidiary, FirstBank Puerto Rico, were 15.81%, 17.85%, 19.13%, and 13.03%, respectively, compared to common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 15.62%, 17.61%, 18.89% and 13.28%, respectively, as of the end of the prior quarter.
Tangible Common Equity
The Corporation’s tangible common equity ratio increased to 12.61% as of June 30, 2015 from 12.33% as of March 31, 2015.

Exposure to Puerto Rico Government
As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation had $340.0 million of credit facilities, excluding investment securities, granted to the Puerto Rico Government, its municipalities and public corporations, of which $326.7 million was outstanding (book value of $325.8 million), compared to $321.7 million outstanding as of March 31, 2015. Approximately $204.3 million of the granted credit facilities outstanding consisted of loans to municipalities in Puerto Rico for which, in most cases, the good faith, credit and unlimited taxing power of the applicable municipality have been pledged to their repayment. Approximately $23.3 million consisted of loans to units of the central government, and approximately $99.0 million ($98.1 million book value) consisted of loans to public corporations, including the direct exposure to PREPA with a book value of $74.1 million as of June 30, 2015. In addition, the Corporation had $131.0 million outstanding in financings to the hotel industry in Puerto Rico guaranteed by the Puerto Rico Tourism Development Fund as of June 30, 2015, down $1.5 million, compared to $132.5 million outstanding as of March 31, 2015.

As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation had $326.9 million of public sector deposits in Puerto Rico, compared to $283.0 million as of March 31, 2015. Approximately 54% is from municipalities in Puerto Rico and 46% is from public corporations and the central government and agencies.

Safe Harbor
This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” concerning the Corporation’s future economic performance. The words or phrases “expect,” “anticipate,” “look forward,” “should,” “believes” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance are meant to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor created by such sections. The Corporation wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such “forward-looking statements,” which speak only as of the date made, and to advise readers that various factors, including, but not limited to, the following could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by such forward-looking statements: uncertainty about whether the Corporation will be able to continue to fully comply with the written agreement dated June 3, 2010 that the Corporation entered into with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “New York Fed”) that, among other things, requires the Corporation to serve as a source of strength to FirstBank and that, except with the consent generally of the New York Fed and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), prohibits the Corporation from paying dividends to stockholders or receiving dividends from FirstBank, making payments on trust preferred securities or subordinated debt and incurring, increasing or guaranteeing debt or repurchasing any capital securities; uncertainty as to the availability of certain funding sources, such as brokered CDs; the Corporation’s reliance on brokered CDs to fund operations and provide liquidity; the risk of not being able to fulfill the Corporation’s cash obligations or resume paying dividends to the Corporation’s stockholders in the future due to the Corporation’s need to receive approval from the New York Fed and the Federal Reserve Board to receive dividends from FirstBank or FirstBank’s failure to generate sufficient cash flow to make a dividend payment to the Corporation; the strength or weakness of the real estate markets and of the consumer and commercial sectors and their impact on the credit quality of the Corporation’s loans and other assets, which has contributed and may continue to contribute to, among other things, high levels of non-performing assets, charge-offs and provisions for loan and lease losses and may subject the Corporation to further risk from loan defaults and foreclosures; the ability of FirstBank to realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets subject to the remaining valuation allowance; additional adverse changes in general economic conditions in Puerto Rico, the U.S., and the U.S. Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands, including the interest rate environment, market liquidity, housing absorption rates, real estate prices, and disruptions in the U.S. capital markets, which has reduced interest margins and affected funding sources, and has affected demand for all of the Corporation’s products and services and reduced the Corporation’s revenues and earnings, and the value of the Corporation’s assets; a credit default by the Puerto Rico government or any of its public corporations or other instrumentalities, and recent and any future downgrades of the long-term and short-term debt ratings of the Puerto Rico government, which could exacerbate Puerto Rico’s adverse economic conditions; an adverse change in the Corporation’s ability to attract new clients and retain existing ones; a decrease in demand for the Corporation’s products and services and lower revenues and earnings because of the continued recession in Puerto Rico, the current fiscal problems of the Puerto Rico government and recent credit downgrades of the Puerto Rico government’s debt; the risk that any portion of the unrealized losses in the Corporation’s investment portfolio is determined to be other-than-temporary, including additional impairments on the Puerto Rico government’s obligations; uncertainty about regulatory and legislative changes for financial services companies in Puerto Rico, the U.S., the U.S. Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands, which could affect the Corporation’s financial condition or performance and could cause the Corporation’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from prior results and anticipated or projected results; changes in the fiscal and monetary policies and regulations of the U.S. federal government and the Puerto Rico and other governments, including those determined by the Federal Reserve Board, the New York Fed, the FDIC, government-sponsored housing agencies, and regulators in Puerto Rico and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands; the risk of possible failure or circumvention of controls and procedures and the risk that the Corporation’s risk management policies may not be adequate; the risk that the FDIC may increase the deposit insurance premium and/or require special assessments to replenish its insurance fund, causing an additional increase in the Corporation’s non-interest expenses; the impact on the Corporation’s results of operations and financial condition of acquisitions and dispositions, including the recent acquisition of loans and branches of Doral Bank as well as the assumption of deposits at the branches; a need to recognize impairments on financial instruments, goodwill, or other intangible assets relating to acquisitions; the risk that downgrades in the credit ratings of the Corporation’s long-term senior debt will adversely affect the Corporation’s ability to access necessary external funds; the impact of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act on the Corporation’s businesses, business practices, and cost of operations; and general competitive factors and industry consolidation. The Corporation does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any “forward-looking statements” to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by the federal securities laws.
Basis of Presentation
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are set forth when management believes they will be helpful to an understanding of the Corporation’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the attached tables to this earnings release.
Tangible Common Equity Ratio and Tangible Book Value per Common Share
The tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures generally used by the financial community to evaluate capital adequacy. Tangible common equity is total equity less preferred equity, goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible. Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and other intangibles, such as the purchased credit card relationship intangible. Management and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible assets, or the related measures should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders’ equity, total assets, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Corporation calculates its tangible common equity, tangible assets, and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income
Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP performance metric that management believes is useful in analyzing underlying performance trends, particularly in times of economic stress. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, as defined by management, represents net income (loss) excluding income tax expense (benefit), the provision for loan and lease losses, gains on sale and OTTI of investment securities, fair value adjustments on derivatives, equity in earnings or loss of unconsolidated entity up until the second quarter of 2014 when the value of the investment became zero as well as certain items identified as unusual, non-recurring or non-operating.
In addition, from time to time, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income will reflect the omission of revenue or expense items that management judges to be outside of ordinary banking activities or of items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that management believes that a complete analysis of the Corporation’s performance requires consideration also of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income that excludes such amounts.
Net Interest Income, Excluding Valuations and Prepayment Penalty, and on a Tax-Equivalent Basis
Net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin are reported excluding the changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and a $2.5 million prepayment penalty collected on a commercial mortgage loan paid off in the fourth quarter of 2014, and on a tax-equivalent basis. The presentation of net interest income excluding valuations and the $2.5 million prepayment penalty provides additional information about the Corporation’s net interest income and facilitates comparability and analysis. The changes in the fair value of derivative instruments have no effect on interest due or interest earned on interest-bearing liabilities or interest-earning assets, respectively. The tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a marginal income tax rate. Income from tax-exempt earning assets is increased by an amount equivalent to the taxes that would have been paid if this income had been taxable at statutory rates. Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis. This adjustment puts all earning assets, most notably tax-exempt securities and certain loans, on a common basis that facilitates comparison of results to results of peers.
Financial measures adjusted to exclude the effect of the bulk sale of assets, the OTTI charge on Puerto Rico Government debt securities, the bargain purchase gain and certain non-recurring expenses related to the acquisition of loans and assumption of deposits from Doral.
To supplement the Corporation’s financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Corporation provides additional measures of adjusted net charge-offs, adjusted non-interest expenses, adjusted non-interest income, and adjusted pre-tax income. Adjusted non-interest expenses exclude certain acquisition and conversion costs incurred in the Doral transaction that are considered non-recurring in nature and expenses and losses directly associated with the bulk sale of assets. Adjusted non-interest income excludes the $12.9 million OTTI charge on Puerto Rico Government debt securities recorded in the second quarter of 2015, the $0.6 million loss on a commercial mortgage loan held for sale included as part of the bulk sale of assets in the second quarter, and the $13.4 million bargain purchase gain on assets acquired and deposits assumed from Doral in the first quarter of 2015. Adjusted pre-tax income excludes the effect of all the aforementioned non-recurring items. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of analysts and investors to analyze trends in the Corporation’s business and to better understand the performance of the Corporation. In addition, the Corporation may utilize these non-GAAP financial measures as a guide in its budgeting and long-term planning process. Any analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. See Recent Events-Non-GAAP Reconciliation section above for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
