Heritage Commerce Corp Reports Earnings of $5.7 Million for the Fourth Quarter of 2019 and

Record Earnings of $40.5  Million for the Full Year of 2019;

Merger with Presidio Bank Completed

 

San Jose, CA — January 23, 2020 —  Heritage Commerce Corp (Nasdaq: HTBK), the holding company (the “Company”) for Heritage Bank of Commerce (the “Bank”), today announced fourth quarter 2019 net income of  $5.7 million, or $0.10 per average diluted common share,  compared to $13.2 million, or $0.30 per average diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2018, and $11.3 million, or $0.26 per average diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2019.   For the year ended December  31, 2019,  the Company reported record net income of $40.5 million, or $0.84 per average diluted common share, compared to $35.3 million, or $0.84 per average diluted common share, for the year ended December  31, 2018.  All results are unaudited.

Earnings for the third and fourth quarters of 2019, and for the year ended December 31, 2019 were reduced by pre-tax merger-related costs of $661,000, $9.9 million, and $11.1 million, respectively, related to the merger with Presidio Bank (“Presidio”) which was completed on October 11, 2019 (the “Presidio merger  date”).  Pre-tax earnings for the fourth quarter of 2019 were further reduced by an additional $2.0 million of provision for loan losses for certain non-impaired loans acquired at a premium from Presidio.  Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2018 were reduced by pre-tax merger-related costs of $139,000 and $9.2 million, respectively, for the acquisitions of Tri-Valley Bank (“Tri-Valley”) and United American Bank (“United American”) which were completed on April 6, 2018 and May 4, 2018, respectively.  The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2019 was 28.1%, compared to an effective tax rate of 27.4% for the year ended December 31, 2018.

“The fourth quarter of 2019 saw a significant accomplishment for Heritage Bank of Commerce with the completion of the Presidio Bank merger thereby creating the San Francisco Bay Area’s premier community business bank with a strong depth of banking talent and an extensive and diverse customer base.” said Keith A. Wilton, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Credit quality remains strong and the Bank continued to generate solid earnings for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2019, though these were partially reduced by anticipated merger-related costs from the Presidio merger.”

 

“We ended 2019 with over $4.1 billion in total assets, $2.5 billion in total loans and $3.4 billion in total deposits, with noninterest-bearing deposits increasing 42% from a year ago to 42% of total deposits,” added Mr. Wilton.  “Net interest income was up 19% for the fourth quarter of 2019, over a year ago, and increased 8% for the full year.  Also, in spite of the linked quarter margin compression, and the lower interest rate environment in general, our net interest margin remained strong at 4.15% for the fourth quarter and 4.28% for the full year.  Credit quality continues to improve, with nonperforming assets declining 34% from a year ago to $9.8 million, or 0.24% of total assets.  In the fourth quarter of 2019 we booked an elevated provision for loan losses of $3.2 million, of which $2.0 million was a provision for certain non-impaired loans acquired at a premium from Presidio.”

“We remain focused on the long-term success of our Company and will continue to invest in the future of our franchise.  To that end, we are planning our systems conversion and integration of Presidio during the first quarter of 2020, for which we will incur anticipated additional merger-related costs,” said Mr. Wilton.  “I would also like to thank our many dedicated legacy employees and new employees from Presidio Bank for all that they do to create value, each and every day, for our customers, communities and shareholders.”

Net interest income, before provision for loan losses, increased 19% to $39.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $33.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, and increased 28%  from $30.6 million for the third quarter of 2019.  Net interest income increased 8% to $131.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $122.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in the return on average tangible assets and average tangible equity for the fourth quarter of 2019 and the year ended 2019 was primarily due to higher merger-related costs.

 

·

The fully tax equivalent (“FTE”) net interest margin contracted 27 basis points to 4.15% for the fourth quarter of 2019, from 4.42% for the fourth quarter of 2018,  primarily due to a decline in the average yield of loans, investment securities, and overnight funds, a decrease in the average balance of Bay View Funding’s factored receivables, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of loans, and an increase in the accretion of the loan discount into loan interest income from  a merger during the fourth quarter of 2019.  The net interest margin contracted nine basis points for the fourth quarter of 2019 from 4.24% for the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to a decline in the average yield of loans and overnight funds, partially offset by a higher average balance of loans, and an increase in the accretion of the loan discount into loan interest income from  a merger during the fourth quarter of 2019.

 

·

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the net interest margin contracted three basis points to 4.28%, compared to 4.31% for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to a higher cost of deposits, a decrease in the average balance of Bay View Funding’s factored receivables,  partially offset by an increase in the average balance of loans and securities, and an increase in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from a merger during the year ended December 31, 2019.

The average yield on the total loan portfolio decreased to 5.76% for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to 6.01% for the fourth quarter of 2018, primarily due to decreases in the prime rate on loans during the latter part of 2019, and a decrease in the average balance of Bay View Funding’s factored receivables, partially offset by an increase in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the acquisitions.

The average yield on the total loan portfolio decreased to 5.86% for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 5.87% for the year ended December 31, 2018,  primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of Bay View Funding’s factored receivables, partially offset by the impact of the increasing prime rate on loans over the course of 2018 (prior to the prime rate decreasing in the latter part of 2019), and an increase in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the acquisitions.

 

·

The total net purchase discount on loans from the Focus Business Bank (“Focus”) loan portfolio was $5.4 million on the acquisition date of August 20, 2015, of which $418,000 remains outstanding as of December 31, 2019.  The total net purchase discount on loans from the Tri-Valley loan portfolio was $2.6 million on the acquisition date of April 6, 2018, of which $1.6 million remains outstanding as of December  31, 2019.    The total net purchase discount on loans from the United American loan portfolio was $4.7 million on the acquisition date of May 4, 2018, of which $2.7 million remains outstanding as of December 31, 2019.    The total net purchase discount on loans from Presidio loan portfolio was $12.5 million on the Presidio merger date, of which $11.6 million remains outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

 

¨

The cost of total deposits was 0.26% for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to 0.25% for the fourth quarter of 2018 and 0.31% for the third quarter of 2019.  The cost of total deposits was 0.29% for the year ended December 31, 2019,  compared to 0.21% for the year ended December  31, 2018.  

 

¨

There was a $3.2 million provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to a $142,000 provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2018, and a $576,000 credit to the provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2019.  The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2019 included $2.0 million related to certain non-impaired loans acquired at a premium from Presidio.  This premium was due to higher interest rates on the loans versus market interest rates at the time of the merger.  Due to the net premium on these loans, a provision for loan losses was required and it was not due to credit deterioration since the Presidio merger date.  There was an  $846,000 provision for loan losses for the year ended December  31, 2019, compared to a $7.4 million provision for loan losses for the year ended December  31, 2018.  The higher provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2018 included a $7.0 million specific reserve for a lending relationship that was placed on nonaccrual during the second quarter of 2018.

 

¨

Total noninterest income was $2.4 million for the fourth quarters of 2019 and 2018.  An increase in the gain on sales of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, and an increase in the cash surrender value of life insurance, was offset by a loss on sale of securities for the fourth quarter of 2019.  Total noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 decreased from $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to a loss on sale of securities, partially offset by an increase in the gain on sale of SBA loans, an increase in the cash surrender value of life insurance, and higher service charges and fees on deposits accounts.

 

·

For the year ended December 31, 2019,  total noninterest income increased to $10.2 million, compared to $9.6 million for the  year ended December  31, 2018. The increase in noninterest income for the year ended December  31,  2019, was primarily due to higher service charges and fees on deposit accounts,  and an increase in the cash surrender value of life insurance, partially offset by an increase in the gain on sale of securities, and proceeds from a legal settlement in the year ended December  31, 2018. 

 

·

The Company received $1.3 million in proceeds from a legal settlement during the second quarter of 2018, of which $377,000 was recorded in other noninterest income, and $922,000 was credited to professional fees for recaptured legal fees previously paid by the Company.

 

¨

Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased to  $30.6 million, compared to $16.9 million for the  fourth quarter of 2018, and $17.9 million for the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to higher merger-related costs.  Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2019 included total merger-related costs of $9.9 million for the Presidio merger, of which $6.6 million was included in salaries and employee benefits, and $3.3 million was included in other noninterest expense.  Total

4

merger-related costs were  $139,000 for the fourth quarter of 2018 for the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions.  Total merger-related costs were $661,000 for the third quarter of 2019 for the Presidio merger. 

·

Total noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 increased to $84.9 million, compared to $75.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to higher merger-related costs, and a full year of additional operating costs of Tri-Valley and United American, in addition to the operating costs of Presidio for the fourth quarter of 2019.  Total noninterest expense for the year ended December 31,  2019 included total merger-related costs of $11.1 million for the Presidio merger of which $6.6 million was included in salaries and employee benefits, and $4.5 million was included in other noninterest expense.  Total merger-related costs were $9.2 million for the year ended December 31,  2018 for the Tri-Valley and United American acquisitions, of which $3.6 million was included in salaries and employee benefits and $5.6 million was included in other noninterest expense. Professional fees for the year ended December 31,  2018 included a recovery of $922,000 from a legal settlement. 

·

Full time equivalent employees were 357 at December  31, 2019,  302 at December  31, 2018, and 308 at September 30, 2019.

 

¨

The efficiency ratio was 73.58% for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to 47.78% for the fourth quarter of 2018, and 53.87% for the third quarter of 2019.  The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2019 was 59.76%, compared to 57.39% for the year ended December  31, 2018.   The increase in the efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2019 was primarily due to higher merger-related costs.

 

¨

Income tax expense was $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, and $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2019.  Income tax expense for the year ended December  31, 2019 was $15.9 million, compared to $13.3 million for the year ended December  31, 2018.  The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 26.9%, compared to 28.0% for the fourth quarter of 2018, and 29.1% for the third quarter of 2019.    The effective tax rate for the  year ended December  31, 2019 was 28.1%, compared to 27.4% for the  year ended December  31, 2018.    

 

·

The difference in the effective tax rate for the periods reported compared to the combined Federal and state statutory tax rate of 29.6% is primarily the result of the Company’s investment in life insurance policies whose earnings are not subject to taxes, tax credits related to investments in low income housing limited partnerships (net of low income housing investment losses), and tax-exempt interest income earned on municipal bonds.

¨

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).  Under the new guidance, the Company recognizes the following for all leases, at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. While the new standard impacts lessors, the Company is impacted as a lessee of the offices and real estate used for operations.  The Company's lease agreements include options to renew at the Company's discretion. The extensions are not reasonably certain to be exercised, therefore they are not considered in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. Total assets and total liabilities were  $12.2 million on its consolidated statement of financial condition at December 31, 2019, as a result of recognizing right-of-use assets, included in other assets, and lease liabilities, included in other liabilities, related to non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office space.
