Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Results (Unaudited) and Increases Quarterly Cash Dividend to $0.25 per Share


Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPBI) (the "Company"), the holding company of Pacific Premier Bank (the "Bank"), reported net income for the fourth quarter of 2019 of $41.1 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared with net income of $41.4 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019 and net income of $39.6 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018.

For the three months ended December 31, 2019, the Company's return on average assets ("ROAA") was 1.42%, return on average equity ("ROAE") was 8.20%, and return on average tangible common equity ("ROATCE") was 15.89%, as compared to 1.44%, 8.32% and 16.27%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019 and 1.37%, 8.15% and 16.65%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2018. Total assets as of December 31, 2019 were $11.8 billion compared with $11.8 billion at September 30, 2019 and $11.5 billion at December 31, 2018. A reconciliation of the non?U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measure of ROATCE to the GAAP measure of common stockholders' equity is set forth at the end of this press release.

Steven R. Gardner, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "This was a record year for the Company with net income of $159.7 million and non-maturity deposit growth of $603.0 million. Our prudent balance sheet management strategies and continued success in core deposit growth helped to minimize the impact of the declining interest rate environment on our net interest margin, and coupled with our disciplined expense management, enabled us to generate solid profitability with an ROAA of 1.42% and an ROATCE of 15.89% for the fourth quarter of 2019.

"Prudent capital management remains a focus of the board and management. We recently authorized a new $100 million share repurchase program, and we are increasing our quarterly cash dividend by 13.6% to $0.25 per share. Our strong profitability enables us to return significant amounts of capital to shareholders, while maintaining sufficient capital to support our organic and acquisitive growth strategies.

"During 2019, following several years of strong growth, driven by a number of highly successful acquisitions, we were able to complete several key projects throughout the Company that helped us expand our product and service offerings, enhance efficiencies and strengthen our risk management framework. As of result of the investments we have made, we have a strong foundation in place to support a much larger organization. Our team of employees has never been stronger or more capable, and I am proud to be a part of such an incredibly talented group," said Mr. Gardner.

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income totaled $112.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, an increase of $584,000, or 1%, from the third quarter of 2019. The increase in net interest income reflected a lower cost of funds driven primarily by higher average balances of noninterest bearing deposits and, to a lesser extent, lower average balances of retail and brokered certificates of deposit, and lower rates paid on deposits, partially offset by the impact of lower average loan balances and yields.

Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 4.33% compared with 4.36% for the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was driven primarily by lower accretion income and lower loan-related fees of $5.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, compared to $6.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively. Our core net interest margin, which excludes the impact of accretion and other one-time adjustments, decreased 2 basis points to 4.10%, compared to 4.12% from the prior quarter. The decrease in the core net interest margin reflected lower loan yields, partially offset by a lower cost of funds.

We anticipate our core net interest margin will be in the range of 3.95% to 4.05% in the first quarter of 2020.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 decreased $4.6 million, or 4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower loan yields and a $208.7 million decrease in average loan balances, partially offset by a lower cost of funds.

Provision for Credit Losses

Provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $2.3 million, an increase of $735,000 from the third quarter of 2019 and an increase of $39,000 from the fourth quarter of 2018. Net charge-offs were $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2019 and $138,000 in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Provision for unfunded commitments for the fourth quarter of 2019 reflected a $666,000 reduction due primarily to lower loan commitments and loss rates as compared to a $197,000 provision for the third quarter of 2019, and similar to the provision for the fourth quarter of 2018 which reflected a $580,000 reduction for unfunded commitments.

Noninterest income

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $9.8 million, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 14%, from the third quarter of 2019. The fourth quarter of 2019 included decreases of $615,000 in net gain from sales of loans and $590,000 in net gain from the sales of investment securities. In addition, other income decreased $431,000 from the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to a $652,000 decrease in income on Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") related equity investments and an $183,000 increase in cost on debt extinguishment, partially offset by a $462,000 increase in swap fee income.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Bank sold $23.7 million of Small Business Administration ("SBA") and U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA") loans for a gain of $2.1 million, compared with $26.3 million of SBA loans sold at a gain of $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2019. The fourth quarter also included the sale of $8.4 million of other loans for a net loss of $418,000 compared with sales of $684,000 of other loans for a net gain of $8,000 during the third quarter of 2019.

We anticipate our noninterest income will range from $6.5 million to $7.0 million for the first quarter of 2020, based upon the current SBA loan sales volume and gain rates as well as normal, recurring business activities, which exclude gain on sales of investment securities.

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased $2.8 million, or 41%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to a net gain from sales of investment securities of $3.7 million, partially offset by a $772,000 decrease in debit card interchange fee income, primarily the result of the Bank becoming a non-exempt institution, effective July 1, 2019, under the Durbin Amendment that regulates debit card interchange fee income, and a $231,000 decrease in net gain from sales of loans.

The decrease in net gain from sales of loans for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to the realization of a $418,000 loss on the sales of other loans in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared with a net gain of $320,000 in the fourth quarter of 2018, partially offset by a higher average premium realized on total SBA loan sales in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $66.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, an increase of $880,000, or 1%, compared with the third quarter of 2019. The increase was driven primarily by a $1.1 million increase in deposit expense attributable largely to higher deposit balances, an $866,000 increase in compensation as a result of higher incentive expense and a $520,000 increase in premise and occupancy expense. These increases were partially offset by an $881,000 decrease in other expense, primarily related to charitable contributions, and a $756,000 decline in FDIC insurance premiums due to small institution assessment credits.

The Company anticipates that total operating expense will range between $65.0 million and $66.0 million for the first quarter of 2020.

Noninterest expense decreased by $1.0 million, or 2%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in merger-related expense and a $1.5 million decline in FDIC insurance premiums, partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in compensation.

Income Tax

For the fourth quarter of 2019, our effective tax rate was 24.2% compared with 27.2% for the third quarter of 2019 and 27.9% for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in the effective tax rate from the prior quarter was due to tax benefits associated with the settlement of stock-based compensation in the fourth quarter of 2019, favorable return to provision adjustments associated with the filing of the 2018 federal and state tax returns in October 2019, and a true-up of the state tax rate.

The Company anticipates the full year 2020 effective tax rate to be in the range of 26.0% to 28.0%.

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

Loans

Loans held for investment totaled $8.7 billion at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $35.2 million, or 0.4%, from September 30, 2019, and a decrease of $114.5 million, or 1.3%, from December 31, 2018. The decreases were driven primarily by higher loan prepayments and payoffs, as well as higher loan sales and lower loan purchases, partially offset by higher line utilization and fundings. Loan sales during the fourth quarter of 2019 included $23.7 million of SBA/USDA loans and $8.4 million of other loans, compared with $26.3 million of SBA loans and $684,000 of other loans sold in the third quarter of 2019.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Bank generated $556.3 million of new loan commitments and $419.9 million of new loan fundings, compared with $536.9 million in new loan commitments and $356.6 million in new loan fundings in the third quarter of 2019, and $730.0 million of new loan commitments and $531.5 million in new loan fundings in the fourth quarter of 2018.

At December 31, 2019, our loans held for investment to deposit ratio was 98.0%, compared with 98.9% and 102.1% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The total end of period weighted average interest rate on loans, excluding fees and discounts, at December 31, 2019 was 4.91%, compared with 5.00% at September 30, 2019 and 5.13% at December 31, 2018. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreases reflect the impact of lower rates on new originations as well as the unfavorable repricing of loans as a result of the Federal Reserve Bank's interest rate decreases.

Investment Securities

Investment securities available-for-sale totaled $1.4 billion at December 31, 2019, an increase of $111.7 million, or 8.9%, from September 30, 2019, and an increase of $265.2 million, or 24.0%, from December 31, 2018. The increase in the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared to the third quarter of 2019 was primarily the result of purchases of $284.0 million, partially offset by sales of $129.6 million, total principal payments, amortization and redemptions of $32.9 million and a mark-to-market fair value adjustment decrease of $12.3 million. The increase compared to the same period last year was primarily the result of $889.5 million in purchases and a $38.1 million in mark-to-market fair value adjustment, partially offset by $543.2 million in sales and $126.6 million in principal payments, amortization and redemptions due to higher purchases and expansion of the investment portfolio.

Deposits

At December 31, 2019, deposits totaled $8.9 billion, an increase of $39.2 million, or 0.4%, from September 30, 2019 and an increase of $240.2 million, or 2.8%, from December 31, 2018. Non-maturity deposits totaled $7.9 billion, an increase of $335.3 million, or 4.5%, from September 30, 2019 and an increase of $603.0 million, or 8.3%, from December 31, 2018. During the fourth quarter of 2019, deposit increases included $234.1 million in noninterest-bearing deposits, $56.6 million in interest checking and $44.5 million in money market/savings deposits, partially offset by decreases of $250.1 million in brokered certificates of deposits and $46.0 million in retail certificates of deposits as compared to the third quarter of 2019.

The weighted average cost of deposits for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 0.58%, compared with 0.71% for the third quarter of 2019 and 0.55% for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in the weighted average cost of deposits for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2019 was driven primarily by lower volume and rates paid on retail and brokered certificates of deposit as well as higher average noninterest-bearing and money market deposit balances and pricing actions taken by the Bank across all interest-bearing deposit products. The cost of deposits was 0.53% at December 31, 2019.

Borrowings

At December 31, 2019, total borrowings amounted to $732.2 million, a decrease of $90.2 million, or 11%, from September 30, 2019 and a decrease of $45.8 million, or 6%, from December 31, 2018. Total borrowings for the quarter included $517.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("FHLB") advances and $215.1 million of subordinated debt. At December 31, 2019, total borrowings represented 6.2% of total assets, compared to 7.0% and 6.8% as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The decrease in borrowings at December 31, 2019 as compared to September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was primarily due to decreases in FHLB advances and the redemption of junior subordinated debt securities.

In May 2019, the Company issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") due May 15, 2029. On October 7, 2019, the Company used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to redeem all $3.1 million outstanding principal amount of floating rate junior subordinated debt securities associated with Mission Community Capital Trust I, a statutory business trust created under the laws of the State of Delaware, acquired as part of the Heritage Oaks Bancorp acquisition. The junior subordinated debt securities carried an interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.95% per annum, for an effective rate of 5.25% per annum, and were scheduled to mature on October 7, 2033. The junior subordinated debt securities were called at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest, for an aggregate amount of $3.1 million.

Capital Ratios

At December 31, 2019, our ratio of tangible common equity to total assets was 10.30%, compared with 10.01% in the prior quarter and 10.02% at December 31, 2018, with tangible book value per share of $18.84, compared with $18.41 at September 30, 2019 and $16.97 at December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2019, the Company had a tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 10.54%, common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 11.35%, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 11.42% and total risk-based capital ratio of 13.81%.

At December 31, 2019, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 12.39%, common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 13.43%, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 13.43% and total risk-based capital of 13.83%. These capital ratios exceeded the "well capitalized" standards defined by the federal banking regulators of 5.00% for tier 1 leverage ratio, 6.5% for common equity tier 1 capital ratio, 8.00% for tier 1 capital ratio and 10.00% for total capital ratio and exceeded the minimum common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital ratio inclusive of the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer of 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively.

GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

The Company uses certain 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. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these adjusted measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled adjusted measures reported by other companies.

For periods presented below, return on average tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate this figure by excluding CDI amortization expense from net income and excluding the average CDI and average goodwill from the average stockholders' equity during the periods indicated. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business.

Tangible book value per share and tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio") are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per share, which we calculate by dividing common stockholders' equity by shares outstanding. We calculate the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common stockholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. We believe that this information is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our capital position and ratios.

Core net interest income and core net interest margin are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate core net interest income by excluding scheduled accretion income, accelerated accretion income, CD mark-to-market amortization and nonrecurring nonaccrual interest paid from net interest income. The core net interest margin is calculated as the ratio of core net interest income to average interest-earning assets. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business.
