FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ITLA CAPITAL CORPORATION REPORTS
EARNINGS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2006
La Jolla, California (October 17, 2006) --- ITLA Capital Corporation (NASDAQ-ITLA) today reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, primarily resulting from the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Imperial Capital Bank (the Bank), of $6.8 million or $1.20 per diluted share compared to $6.3 million or $1.06 per diluted share for the same period last year. President and Chief Executive Officer George W. Haligowski stated: "I'm proud to report our third quarter results, which continues our string of record quarterly profitability despite a challenging and competitive market environment. We've been able to sustain this financial performance by consistently growing our internal loan originations and increasing our loan footings by over $200 million since the beginning of the fiscal year."
Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased 1.9 percent to $24.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $23.8 million for the same period last year. The increase was primarily caused by additional interest income earned due to the growth in the average balance of our loan portfolio and variable rate loans repricing to higher current market interest rates, partially offset by additional interest expense incurred due to the growth in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities, deposits and other interest bearing liabilities repricing to higher current market interest rates, and the addition of new borrowings at higher current market interest rates.
The provision for loan losses remained unchanged, totaling $1.5 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. These provisions for loan losses were recorded to provide reserves adequate to support the known and inherent risk of loss in our loan portfolio and for specific reserves as of September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
General and administrative expenses decreased to $11.5 million during the current quarter, compared to $12.0 million for the same period last year. Our efficiency ratio (defined as general and administrative expenses as percentage of net revenue) was 46.1 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to 49.2 percent for the same period last year.
Loan originations were $265.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $253.8 million for the same period last year. During the current quarter, the Bank originated $201.2 million of commercial real estate loans, $54.3 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, and $9.7 million of entertainment finance loans. Loan originations for the same period last year consisted of $153.4 million of commercial real estate loans, $83.0 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, and $17.4 million of entertainment finance loans. In addition, the Bank's wholesale loan operations acquired $120.9 million of multi-family real estate loans during the quarter ended September 30, 2006, and a $128.5 million single-family residential loan portfolio during the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Haligowski commented that: "We continue to establish ourselves as a national real estate lender. During the quarter, our offices located outside of California represented almost 40% of our commercial real estate production and 70% of our multi-family production. These contributions are having a substantial impact on our financial performance and the geographical diversification of our loan portfolio."

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased to $19.9 million or $3.49 per diluted share, compared to $17.8 million or $2.96 per diluted share for the same period last year. Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased 5.1 percent to $71.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $67.7 million for the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to the growth in the average balance of our loan portfolio, and variable rate loans repricing to higher current market interest rates, partially offset by additional interest expense incurred due to the growth in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities, deposits and other interest bearing liabilities repricing to higher current market interest rates, and the addition of new borrowings at higher current market interest rates.
The provision for loan losses was $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. These provisions for loan losses were recorded to provide reserves adequate to support known and inherent losses in our loan portfolio and for specific reserves as of September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
General and administrative expenses increased to $35.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $34.3 million for the same period last year. The Company's efficiency ratio was 48.4 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 49.9 percent for the same period last year.
Loan originations were $701.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $639.1 million for the same period last year. During the current nine month period, the Bank originated $489.7 million of commercial real estate loans, $170.8 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, and $40.7 million of entertainment finance loans. Loan originations for the same period last year consisted of $339.8 million of commercial real estate loans, $232.5 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, $64.4 million of entertainment finance loans, and $2.4 million of franchise loans. In addition, the Bank's wholesale loan operations acquired $347.3 million and $493.1 million of commercial and multi-family real estate loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As discussed above, the Bank's wholesale loan operations also acquired a $128.5 million single-family residential loan portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
Total assets increased $225.1 million to $3.3 billion at September 30, 2006, compared to $3.1 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase in total assets was primarily due to a $201.0 million increase in our loan portfolio and a $47.7 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by a $30.2 million decline in investment securities held-to-maturity.
Non-performing assets remained substantially unchanged at $28.4 million or 0.87 percent of total assets as of September 30, 2006, as compared to $28.2 million or 0.92 percent as of December 31, 2005, respectively. The allowance for loan loss coverage ratio (defined as the allowance for loan losses divided by non-accrual loans) at September 30, 2006 was 224.9 percent as compared to 180.6 percent at December 31, 2005.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of our total loans was 1.7 percent at September 30, 2006, and December 31, 2005. During the quarter ended September 30, 2006, we had net charge-offs of $1.0 million, compared to net charge-offs of $241,000 for the same period last year.
At September 30, 2006, shareholders' equity totaled $215.6 million or 6.6 percent of total assets. During the current quarter, we repurchased 34,175 shares at an average price of $51.21 per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we repurchased 189,731 shares at an average price of $48.00 per share. Since beginning share repurchases in April 1997, a total of 3.5 million shares have been repurchased, returning approximately $99.0 million of capital to our shareholders at an average price of $28.35 per share. The Company's book value per share of common stock was $40.96 as of September 30, 2006, an increase of 8.2 percent and 11.0 percent, respectively, from $37.85 per share as of December 31, 2005 and $36.91 per share as of September 30, 2005.
The Bank had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios at September 30, 2006 of 9.1 percent, 10.9 percent and 12.1 percent, respectively, which represents $128.2 million, $127.8 million and $55.8 million, respectively, of capital in excess of the amount required to be "well capitalized" for regulatory purposes. In addition, the Company, the Bank's holding company, had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios at September 30, 2006 of 9.0 percent, 10.7 percent and 12.5 percent, respectively, which represents $125.4 million, $125.1 million and $65.9 million, respectively, of capital in excess of the amount required to be "well capitalized".
Haligowski concluded: "As we enter the fourth quarter, I'm encouraged by the contributions and diversification provided by our national expansion, which continue to improve each quarter. I believe these offices provide us the flexibility to respond to economic changes and have strategically positioned us for future growth."
