Irvine, Calif., October 24, 2023 -- Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPBI) (the “Company” or “Pacific Premier”), the holding company of Pacific Premier Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income of $46.0 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023, compared with net income of $57.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023, and net income of $73.4 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2022.
    
For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s return on average assets (“ROAA”) was 0.88%, return on average equity (“ROAE”) was 6.43%, and return on average tangible common equity (“ROATCE”)(1) was 10.08%, compared to 1.09%, 8.11%, and 12.66%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2023, and 1.35%, 10.57%, and 16.74%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2022. Total assets were $20.28 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $20.75 billion at June 30, 2023, and $21.62 billion at September 30, 2022.

Steven R. Gardner, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President of the Company, commented, “Our teams continue to deliver solid results in a challenging economic and interest rate environment. We maintained our disciplined focus on prudent and proactive risk, liquidity, and capital management during the quarter. Our relationship managers' extraordinary efforts to deepen existing client relationships and bring new clients into our franchise are producing tangible results. During the quarter, client deposit flows further stabilized in the face of significant pricing competition, and we were able to reduce higher cost brokered deposits by $490 million.

"Our asset quality remained solid during the quarter, as total delinquencies decreased to 0.08% of loans, and non-performing assets were just 0.13% of total assets. Our operating results were impacted by a shared national credit that resulted in two non-relationship loans to one borrower being placed on nonaccrual status during the quarter. This resulted in an interest accrual reversal of $1.7 million and a charge-off of $3.2 million. The borrower on this $13 million credit continues to make payments. Our total shared national credit portfolio, which is a line of business we acquired from Opus Bank in 2020 that we have since discontinued, is comprised of twenty-two loans totaling $201 million in outstanding balances, or 1.5% of total loans, at September 30th.

“During the past several quarters, we intentionally and proactively prioritized capital accumulation over balance sheet growth in light of the uncertain economic outlook, while at the same time continuing to provide best-in-class service to our clients and the communities we serve. As a result, we have created optionality for our organization to pursue organic and strategic growth opportunities that we believe will be accretive and aligned with our commitment to producing long-term value for our shareholders.

“I would like to thank all of the Pacific Premier employees for their outstanding efforts during the quarter, and our Board of Directors, shareholders, and stakeholders for continuing to support our organization through another dynamic period of time.”

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
 
Net interest income totaled $149.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of $10.5 million, or 6.6%, from the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in net interest income was primarily attributable to a higher cost of funds as a result of the current interest rate environment and lower average loans and investment securities balances, partially offset by higher interest-bearing cash balances.

The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2023 decreased 21 basis points to 3.12%, from 3.33% in the prior quarter. The lower net interest margin was due to a higher cost of funds and lower loan prepayment fees, partially offset by higher yields on interest-bearing cash balances and investment securities. The net interest margin was negatively impacted 4 basis points as a result of reversing $1.7 million of accrued interest for the shared national credit through September 30, 2023.

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $31.6 million, or 17.4%, compared to the third quarter of 2022. The decrease was attributable to a higher cost of funds and lower average loans and investment securities balances, partially offset by higher yields on average interest-earning assets.

Noninterest Income
 
Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2023 was $18.6 million, a decrease of $2.0 million from the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $1.8 million decrease in other income largely attributable to decreases in income on Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) and other equity investments.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $1.6 million compared to the third quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to an $800,000 decrease in other income primarily due to lower income on CRA and other equity investments and a $617,000 decrease in escrow and exchange fees attributable to lower commercial real estate transaction activity.

Noninterest Expense
 
Noninterest expense totaled $102.2 million for the third quarter of 2023, an increase of $1.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in deposit expense driven by higher deposit earnings credit rates, and a $644,000 increase in compensation and benefits.

Noninterest expense increased by $1.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $6.0 million increase in deposit expense driven by higher deposit earnings credit rates, partially offset by a $2.3 million decrease in compensation and benefits from reduced staffing levels.

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

Loans

Loans held for investment totaled $13.27 billion at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $340.2 million, or 2.5%, from June 30, 2023, and a decrease of $1.64 billion, or 11.0%, from September 30, 2022. The decrease from June 30, 2023 was primarily due to lower loan production and fundings, partially offset by slower loan prepayments. The decrease from September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by lower loan fundings.

During the third quarter of 2023, new loan commitments totaled $67.8 million, and loan fundings totaled $25.6 million, compared with $148.5 million in loan commitments and $71.6 million in new loan fundings for the second quarter of 2023, and $789.2 million in loan commitments and $450.7 million in new loan fundings for the third quarter of 2022. During the third quarter of 2023, new origination activity remained muted given the uncertain economic and interest rate compared to the production levels seen in the third quarter of 2022.
 
At September 30, 2023, the total loan-to-deposit ratio was 82.9%, compared to 82.3% and 84.0% at June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses
 
At September 30, 2023, our allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans held for investment was $188.1 million, a decrease of $4.2 million from June 30, 2023, and a decrease of $7.5 million from September 30, 2022. The decrease in the ACL from June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was commensurate with the relative decreases in loans held for investment balances.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company incurred $6.8 million of net charge-offs, compared to $3.7 million during the second quarter of 2023, and $1.1 million during the third quarter of 2022.

The following table provides the allocation of the ACL for loans held for investment as well as the activity in the ACL attributed to various segments in the loan portfolio as of and for the period indicated:

Investment Securities

At September 30, 2023, available-for-sale (“AFS”) and held-to-maturity (“HTM”) investment securities were $1.91 billion and $1.74 billion, respectively, compared to $2.01 billion and $1.74 billion, respectively, at June 30, 2023, and $2.66 billion and $1.39 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2022.

In total, investment securities were $3.65 billion at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $96.9 million from June 30, 2023, and a decrease of $394.1 million from September 30, 2022. The decrease in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter was primarily the result of $88.4 million in principal payments, amortization, and redemptions, and an increase of $21.9 million in AFS securities mark-to-market unrealized loss, partially offset by purchases of CRA related investment securities of $13.4 million.

The decrease in investment securities from September 30, 2022 was primarily the result of $370.3 million in principal payments, discounts from the AFS securities transferred to HTM, amortization, and redemptions, as well as $304.2 million in sales, partially offset by $245.7 million in purchases and a decrease of $27.7 million in AFS securities mark-to-market unrealized loss.

Deposits

At September 30, 2023, total deposits were $16.01 billion, a decrease of $532.4 million, or 3.2%, from June 30, 2023, and a decrease of $1.74 billion, or 9.8%, from September 30, 2022. The decrease from the prior quarter was largely driven by the reduction of $489.5 million in of brokered certificates of deposit.

At September 30, 2023, non-maturity deposits(1) totaled $13.25 billion, or 82.8% of total deposits, a decrease of $202.8 million, or 1.5%, from June 30, 2023, and a decrease of $2.62 billion, or 16.5%, from September 30, 2022. The decreases from prior quarters were largely driven by clients redeploying funds into higher yielding alternatives, prepaying or paying down loans, and, to a lesser extent, shifting depositor behavior following the industry-wide turmoil experienced in the first half of 2023.

At September 30, 2023, maturity deposits totaled $2.75 billion, a decrease of $329.6 million, or 10.7%, from June 30, 2023, and an increase of $881.7 million, or 47.1%, from September 30, 2022. The decrease in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to the reduction of $489.5 million in brokered certificates of deposit, partially offset by an increase of $159.8 million in retail certificates of deposit.

The weighted average cost of total deposits for the third quarter of 2023 was 1.50%, compared to 1.27% for the second quarter of 2023, and 0.22% for the third quarter of 2022. The increases in the weighted average cost of deposits for the third quarter of 2023, compared to the second quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, were principally driven by higher pricing across deposit categories. The weighted average cost of non-maturity deposits(1) for the third quarter of 2023 was 0.89%, compared to 0.71% for the second quarter of 2023, and 0.11% for the third quarter of 2022.

At September 30, 2023, the end-of-period weighted average rate of total deposits was 1.52%, compared to 1.40% at June 30, 2023, and 0.37% at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2023, the end-of-period weighted average rate of non-maturity deposits was 0.96%, compared to 0.78% at June 30, 2023, and 0.20% at September 30, 2022.

Borrowings

At September 30, 2023, total borrowings amounted to $1.13 billion, remaining flat from June 30, 2023, and reflecting an increase of $200.6 million from September 30, 2022. Total borrowings at September 30, 2023 were comprised of $800.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB”) term advances and $331.7 million of subordinated debt. The increase in borrowings at September 30, 2023 as compared to September 30, 2022 was due to a net $200.0 million increase in FHLB term advances.

As of September 30, 2023, our unused borrowing capacity was $8.20 billion, which consists of available lines of credit with FHLB and other correspondent banks as well as access through the Federal Reserve Bank's discount window and the Bank Term Funding Program, neither of which were utilized during the third quarter of 2023.

Capital Ratios

At September 30, 2023, our common stockholders' equity was $2.86 billion, or 14.08% of total assets, compared with $2.85 billion, or 13.73%, at June 30, 2023, and $2.74 billion, or 12.65%, at September 30, 2022, with a book value per share of $29.78, compared with $29.71 at June 30, 2023, and $28.79 at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2023, the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets(1) was 9.87%, compared with 9.59% at June 30, 2023, and 8.59% at September 30, 2022, and tangible book value per share(1) was $19.89, compared with $19.79 at June 30, 2023, and $18.68 at September 30, 2022.

The Company implemented the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model on January 1, 2020 and elected to phase in the full effect of CECL on regulatory capital over the five-year transition period. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company began phasing into regulatory capital the cumulative adjustments at the end of the second year of the transition period at 25% per year.

Dividend and Stock Repurchase Program

On October 23, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors declared a $0.33 per share dividend, payable on November 13, 2023 to stockholders of record as of November 3, 2023. In January 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program, which authorized the repurchase of up to 4,725,000 shares of its common stock. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock.

Subsequent Events

On October 6, 2023, in light of a stabilizing deposit base and as part of its balance sheet and liquidity management strategy, the Company deployed excess cash to pay down a $200.0 million higher cost FHLB term advance. Prior to the redemption, such FHLB term advance carried a fixed interest rate of 4.84% with a maturity date in May 2024. Total payment in aggregate was $199.4 million, including principal and accrued and unpaid interest expense, net of a prepayment credit of $793,000, which was recorded as a net gain on debt extinguishment. Management anticipates the deleverage strategy will positively impact the Company's cost of funds, net interest margin, and FHLB available borrowing capacity.

GAAP to NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

PACIFIC PREMIER BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Unaudited)
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 amortization of intangible assets expense from net income and excluding the average intangible assets 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 excludes 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.

Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. This figure represents the ratio of noninterest expense, less other real estate owned operations and amortization of intangible assets, where applicable, to the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and total noninterest income, less net gain (loss) from sales of investment securities and net gain from other real estate owned. 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.

Cost of non-maturity deposits is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. Cost of non-maturity deposits is calculated as the ratio of non-maturity deposit interest expense to average non-maturity deposits. We calculate non-maturity deposit interest expense by excluding interest expense for all certificates of deposit from total deposit expense, and we calculate average non-maturity deposits by excluding all certificates of deposit from total deposits. Management believes cost of non-maturity deposits is a useful measure to assess the Company's deposit base, including its potential volatility.
