Opus Bank Announces Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

  • Reduced nonperforming assets by $13.7 million, or 65%, from the prior quarter to 0.10% of total assets
  • Enterprise Value loans decreased 44% from the prior quarter to $35.9 million
  • Credit improvement resulted in a negative provision for loan losses of $7.7 million
  • Noninterest expense decreased 13% from the prior quarter following expense reduction initiative undertaken in the second quarter of 2019

IRVINE, Calif.--()--Opus Bank ("Opus") (Nasdaq: “OPB”) announced today net income of $22.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019, compared to net income of $8.7 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019. Net income during the third quarter of 2019 included gains of $220,000 on the sale of securities, loans and other assets, and additional income tax expense related to the previously announced expense reduction initiative undertaken in the second quarter of 2019 that increased our effective tax rate by approximately one percentage point. Together, these items negatively impacted earnings by $0.01 per diluted share for the third quarter.

Additionally, Opus announced today that its Board of Directors has approved the payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per common share payable on November 21, 2019 to common stockholders of record as of November 7, 2019, and a common-equivalent payment to its Series A Preferred stockholders.

Paul W. Taylor, President and Chief Executive Officer of Opus Bank, stated, "I am pleased to announce that Opus recorded quarterly earnings per share of $0.57, an increase from $0.23 in the second quarter. As a result of the progress we made in reducing the balances of Enterprise Value loans and nonperforming assets, we recorded a negative provision for loan losses of $7.7 million in the third quarter. Additionally, we significantly reduced overhead expenses after taking the painful but necessary actions in the second quarter to bring Opus more in line with peer efficiency levels. We also generated greater noninterest income from PENSCO and our Escrow and Exchange divisions in the third quarter. These accomplishments resulted in an ROAA of 1.13%, ROATCE of 12.9%, and efficiency ratio of 61.8% for the third quarter of 2019.”

Mr. Taylor continued, “Overall loan growth slowed in the third quarter, due to rate management and elevated payoffs. Yet, our Commercial Banking division originated $99.1 million of loans during the quarter and is continuing to gain traction, despite heavy competition from peers. The intentional runoff of Enterprise Value loans has clouded the progress we are making in remixing our loan portfolio toward a greater percentage of Commercial Business loans, but we expect this headwind will lessen in 2020. In spite of the challenging interest rate environment, I am confident that our profitability will continue to improve.”

Loans

Average loans increased $72.3 million, or 1.3%, from the prior quarter to $5.8 billion for the third quarter of 2019, and increased $725.9 million, or 14.3%, from $5.1 billion for the third quarter of 2018. The increase in loans during the third quarter of 2019 compared to the prior quarter was driven by new loan fundings of $406.1 million, partially offset by loan payoffs of $300.0 million.

New loan fundings in the third quarter of 2019 totaled $406.1 million, a decrease of $297.5 million, or 42%, from the second quarter of 2019 and a decrease of $29.6 million, or 7%, from the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in new loan fundings compared to the prior quarter was primarily driven by fewer multifamily loan originations. Our Commercial Banking division funded $99.1 million of new loans during the third quarter of 2019 and has originated $275.2 million of loans through the first nine months of 2019. Loan growth during the third quarter of 2019 was also impacted by elevated loan payoffs of $300.0 million, compared to payoffs of $192.8 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $197.4 million in the third quarter of 2018.

Investment Securities

The average balance of investment securities decreased $37.2 million, or 3.4%, during the third quarter of 2019 to $1.0 billion compared to the prior quarter, and increased $15.9 million, or 1.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in investment securities compared to the second quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by the sale of lower yielding securities and accelerated amortization from higher paydowns. Investment securities composed 14.8% of average interest earning assets during the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 15.3% during the second quarter of 2019.

Deposits and Borrowings

Average deposits increased $79.8 million, or 1.3%, during the third quarter of 2019 to $6.2 billion compared to the prior quarter, and increased $234.1 million, or 3.9%, compared to the third quarter of 2018. Deposit growth during the third quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by interest-bearing demand, money market, and savings deposits generated by our Retail Banking division, Commercial Banking division, and PENSCO. The average balance of certificates of deposit decreased $13.9 million, or 1.6%, from the prior quarter, and average noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased $9.6 million, or 1.3%, from the prior quarter. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits measured 12.2% of total deposits as of September 30, 2019, as compared to 11.9% of total deposits as of June 30, 2019.

Our loan to deposit ratio was 92.5% as of September 30, 2019, compared to 93.0% as of June 30, 2019 and 84.0% as of September 30, 2018.

The average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances decreased 38% during the third quarter of 2019 to $217.9 million, compared to $351.9 million in the second quarter of 2019, and increased from a zero balance in the third quarter of 2018.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income decreased 1.9% to $49.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $50.5 million for the second quarter of 2019, and increased 1.4% compared to $48.9 million for the third quarter of 2018. Interest income from loans increased 0.8% to $61.7 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $61.2 million for the second quarter of 2019, driven primarily by a net benefit from loan prepayments during the quarter and an increase in the average balance of loans, while interest income from investment securities and interest-earning cash decreased 14.6% to $8.4 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $9.8 million for the second quarter of 2019, driven primarily by lower average balances and higher premium amortization.

Interest expense increased 0.1% to $20.5 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $20.4 million for the second quarter of 2019, and increased 62% compared to $12.6 million for the third quarter of 2018. Interest expense on deposits increased 5.3% from the prior quarter to $17.2 million, driven by higher average balances and cost of deposits, partially offset by an $849,000 decrease in interest expense on FHLB advances during the third quarter of 2019 due to lower average balances.

Net Interest Margin

The current interest rate environment, including the Federal Reserve's rate cuts in the third quarter of 2019 and the flattening yield curve, continue to negatively impact our net interest margin (NIM). Taxable equivalent NIM decreased six basis points to 2.82% in the third quarter of 2019 from 2.88% in the second quarter of 2019, and decreased 16 basis points from 2.98% in the third quarter of 2018. The linked-quarter change was primarily driven by a seven basis point decrease in the yield on interest earning assets to 3.97%, primarily resulting from a 26 basis point decrease in the yield on investment securities to 2.84%. Our cost of funds was unchanged from the prior quarter at 1.23%. While our cost of deposits increased three basis points during the third quarter of 2019 to 1.09%, primarily due to higher rates paid on money market and time deposits, our cost of borrowings decreased due to lower average balances of FHLB advances.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased 9% to $13.1 million in the third quarter of 2019 from $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2019, and increased 14% from $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in noninterest income compared to the prior quarter was primarily driven by a 6% increase in trust administrative fees from PENSCO, our alternative asset IRA custodian subsidiary, to $7.2 million, and an 8% increase in escrow and exchange fees to $1.6 million. Noninterest income for third quarter of 2019 included $220,000 in gains on the sale of securities, loans, and other assets, compared to a loss of $50,000 for the second quarter of 2019.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense decreased 13% to $40.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $46.3 million in the second quarter of 2019, and decreased 8% compared to $43.7 million in the third quarter of 2018. During the second quarter of 2019, we executed a cost reduction initiative and incurred other strategic action related expenses totaling $4.9 million. On an adjusted basis, after giving effect to the expenses described above, noninterest expense decreased 4% compared to the second quarter of 2019. During the third quarter of 2019, the FDIC issued small bank assessment credits based on the reserve ratio of the Deposit Insurance Fund exceeding 1.38%, which resulted in a $397,000 decrease in our deposit insurance and regulatory assessments expense compared to the second quarter of 2019. Our efficiency ratio for the third quarter of 2019 was 61.8%, or 61.6% on an adjusted basis, compared to 71.3% for the second quarter of 2019, or 63.5% on an adjusted basis.

Income Tax Expense

We recorded an income tax expense of $8.3 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to an income tax expense of $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 and a negative income tax expense of $972,000 in the third quarter of 2018. Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2019 was 27.3%, compared to 32.7% for the second quarter of 2019 and (11.5)% for the third quarter of 2018. The previously announced expense reduction initiative in the second quarter of 2019 increased our effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2019 by approximately one percentage point due to annual compensation that exceeded the deductible threshold under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m).

Asset Quality

Total nonperforming assets decreased 65% to $7.4 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $21.2 million as of June 30, 2019, and decreased 84% compared to $45.1 million as of September 30, 2018. Our ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets decreased to 0.10% as of September 30, 2019, compared to 0.27% and 0.61% as of June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. Total criticized loans decreased $36.6 million, or 27%, to $101.4 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $137.9 million as of June 30, 2019. Classified loans decreased $40.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, while special mention loans increased $3.5 million from the prior quarter. Total Enterprise Value loans decreased $28.6 million, or 44%, during the third quarter of 2019 compared to the prior quarter and totaled $35.9 million as of September 30, 2019.

Our allowance for loan losses was $45.2 million, or 0.78% of loans, as of September 30, 2019, compared to $57.7 million, or 1.00% of loans, as of June 30, 2019, and $59.0 million, or 1.14% of loans, as of September 30, 2018. Net charge-offs during the third quarter of 2019 were $4.9 million, or 0.33% of average loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $4.0 million, or 0.28% of average loans annualized, for the second quarter of 2019, and $8.4 million, or 0.66% of average loans annualized, for the third quarter of 2018. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total nonaccrual loans was 609% as of September 30, 2019, compared to 273% as of June 30, 2019 and 131% as of September 30, 2018.

We recorded a negative provision for loan losses of $7.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to a provision expense of $3.3 million and $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 and third quarter of 2018, respectively. The negative provision expense during the third quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by planned loan exits and the release of specific reserves related to Enterprise Value loan relationships resolved during the quarter, partially offset by net charge-offs and new loan production.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). We believe that the presentation of certain non-GAAP financial measures assists investors in evaluating our financial results. These non-GAAP measures include our net income, earnings per diluted share, return on average assets, return on average stockholders' equity, return on average tangible common equity, efficiency ratio, tangible book value per common share, and tangible common equity ratio. These non-GAAP measures should be taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and should not be considered a substitute of the GAAP measures. The following tables present a reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios:

(1) The tax effect of adjustments was computed using the combined federal and state marginal tax rate of 26.1%, 25.5%, 16.1%, 25.4% and 22.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, and September 30, 2018 and the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, adjusted for the tax effect of nondeductible strategic action expenses.

(2) The efficiency ratio equals noninterest expense adjusted to exclude the amortization of other intangible assets divided by the sum of tax-equivalent net interest income and noninterest income adjusted to exclude the gains and losses on the sale of investment securities, loans, and other repossessed assets.
