Pacific Mercantile Bancorp Reports Third Quarter Operating Results

Third Quarter Summary

• Net income of $1.63 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share

• Total new loan commitments of $121.0 million and loan fundings of $94.5 million

• Total loans increased $74.1 million, or 6.8%, from June 30, 2019, and $70.0 million, or 6.4% from December 31, 2018

• Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $47.5 million, or 12.6%, from June 30, 2019, and $85.2 million, or25.0%, from December 31, 2018

• Provision for loan and lease losses of $2.1 million primarily as a result of net charge-offs of $1.5 million, and increase in classified loans

COSTA MESA, Calif., October 28, 2019 (Globenewswire) - Pacific Mercantile Bancorp (Nasdaq: PMBC), the holding company of Pacific Mercantile Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly owned banking subsidiary, today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

For the third quarter of 2019, the Company reported net income of $1.63 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share. This compares to net income of $2.73 million, or $0.12 per fully diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019, and net income of $3.90 million, or $0.17 per fully diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in net income, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, is primarily attributable to an increase in our provision for loan and lease losses as a result of net charge-offs of $1.5 million, and increases in classified loans and in the loan portfolio generally, which was partially offset by increased net interest income during the quarter. The decrease in net income, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, is primarily attributable to the provision for loan and lease losses for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as well as a tax expense of $658 thousand for that period compared to a tax benefit of $98 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Brad R. Dinsmore, President & CEO of Pacific Mercantile Bancorp, said, “In the short time since I have been at Pacific Mercantile Bancorp, it’s become very clear that we have a strong foundation in place to generate profitable growth in the future. The combination of our team of experienced business bankers, our leading-edge treasury management offerings, and the insight provided by Horizon Analytics® has proven to be a compelling value proposition that enables Pacific Mercantile to successfully attract high quality operating companies. This is reflected in the strong quarter we had in core deposit gathering, as our noninterest-bearing deposits increased by more than 12%.

“My goal as President and CEO is to more effectively leverage our strong foundation to accelerate growth and profitability. We are in the process of implementing a number of initiatives to better align our resources to allow our relationship bankers to spend more time with existing clients and new prospects. We believe these initiatives will improve the productivity of our bankers and enhance our operating leverage. The markets we serve in Southern California present excellent opportunities for us to continue building our roster of commercial clients. Going forward, we believe that we can increase our balance sheet growth while maintaining disciplined expense control, which should have a positive impact on our level of profitability and create additional franchise value,” said Mr. Dinsmore.

Net Interest Income

Q32019 vs Q22019. Net interest income increased$524 thousand, or 4.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 primarily as a result of:

• An increase in interest income of $301 thousand, or 1.8%, primarily attributable to an increase in interest earned on loans as a result of higher average balances primarily related to the loan portfolio purchase made during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019; and

• A decrease in interest expense of $223 thousand, or 5.3%, primarily attributable to a decreased average borrowings balance and decreasing interest rates on deposits during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Our net interest margin increased to 3.62% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to 3.58% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to loan growth, which resulted in an increase to loan interest income even though the yield on loans decreased. Also contributing to the increase in net interest margin was a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities resulting from a decrease in prevailing interest rates on checking, money market, and savings accounts, partially offset by increases in interest rates on certificates of deposit.

Q32019 vs Q32018. Net interest income increased$1.05 million, or 9.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily as a result of:

• An increase in interest income of $1.55 million, or 10.2%, primarily attributable to an increase in interest earned on loans and short-term investments as a result of higher average balances and an increase in the average yield on earning assets as a result of the rising interest rate environment during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018; partially offset by

• An increase in interest expense of $495 thousand, or 14.0%, primarily attributable to an increase in the volume of and rates of interest paid on our non-maturing interest bearing deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, which was primarily the result of higher deposits due to new client acquisition, and our decision to increase the rate of interest paid on our non-maturing interest bearing deposits resulting from the rising interest rate environment, which was somewhat offset by a change in our mix of deposits from higher cost certificates of deposit to non-maturing interest and non-interest bearing deposits.

YTD 2019 vs YTD 2018. Net interest income increased$691 thousand, or 1.9%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of:

• An increase in interest income of $3.25 million, or 7.0%, primarily attributable to an increase in interest earned on loans and short-term investments as a result of higher average balances and an increase in the average yields during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which was primarily the result of the rising interest rate environment, which was partially offset by a decrease of $1.58 million in interest recoveries on loans that had been on nonaccrual status but were paid in full during the nine months ended September 30, 2018; partially offset by

• An increase in interest expense of $2.56 million, or 26.1%, primarily attributable to an increase in the rates of interest paid on our deposits and other borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which was the result of our decision to increase the rate of interest paid on our non-maturity interest bearing deposits and our certificates of deposit in a rising interest rate environment, in addition to increased deposits due to new client acquisition and strong organic growth.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

Q32019 vs Q22019. We recorded a $2.1 million provision for loan and lease losses during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of net charge-offs, an increase in classified loans, and growth in our loan portfolio during the quarter. We recorded no provision for loan and lease losses during the three months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of a nominal increase in our loan portfolio during the quarter. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we had net charge-offs of $1.5 million, compared to net charge-offs of $40 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Q32019 vs Q32018. We recorded a $2.1 million provision for loan and lease losses during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of net charge-offs, an increase in classified loans, and growth in our loan portfolio during the quarter. We recorded no provision for loan and lease losses during the three months ended September 30, 2018 due primarily to reserves for new loan growth being offset by a decline in the level of classified assets.

YTD 2019 vs YTD 2018. We recorded a $5.4 million provision for loan and lease losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of total net charge-offs of 6.8 million, an increase in classified loans, and growth in our loan portfolio during the year. We recorded no provision for loan and lease losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily as a result of reserves for new loan growth being offset by a decline in the level of classified assets.

Noninterest Income

Q32019 vs Q22019. Noninterest income decreased$44 thousand, or 3.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily resulting from less gain on SBA loan sales.

Q32019 vs Q32018. Noninterest income increased by $227 thousand, or 20.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of an increase of $265 thousand in gain on sale of SBA loans and an increase of $82 thousand in service fees, partially offset by a decrease of $113 thousand of other non-interest income during the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018.

YTD 2019 vs YTD 2018. Noninterest income increased$913 thousand, or 27.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of:

• An increase of $866 thousand in gain on sale of SBA loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018; and

• An increase of $127 thousand in deposit related fees, credit card fees and loan service fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018; partially offset by

• A gain of $48 thousand on the sale of securities available for sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that did not occur in the same period in 2019.

Noninterest Expense

Q32019 vs Q22019. Noninterest expense decreased$10 thousand, or 0.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of:

• A decrease of $72 thousand in our professional fees primarily related to legal fee recoveries during the third quarter of 2019; and

• A decrease of $217 thousand in our FDIC expense during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 as the result of a lower rate and rebate; offset by

• An increase of $333 thousand in salaries and employee benefits primarily related to the acceleration of equity awards of a former executive.

Q32019 vs Q32018. Noninterest expense increased$695 thousand, or 7.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of:

• An increase of $463 thousand in our professional fees primarily related to higher legal fees during the third quarter of 2019 compared to the recovery of legal fees attributable to the payoff of a loan relationship during the third quarter of 2018 that was previously on nonaccrual status; and

• An increase of $162 thousand in our data processing fees primarily related to a higher credit card and deposit volume in the third quarter of 2019; and

• An increase of $261 thousand in salaries and employee benefits primarily related to the acceleration of equity awards of a former executive; partially offset by

• A decrease of $213 thousand in our FDIC insurance expenses as the result of a lower rate and rebate; and

• A decrease in various expense accounts related to the normal course of operating, including expenses related to loan production and business development during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

YTD 2019 vs YTD 2018. Noninterest expense increased$554 thousand, or 2.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of:

• An increase of $1.06 million in our professional fees primarily related to higher legal fees in 2019 and the recovery of legal fees attributable to the payoff of a loan relationship in 2018 that was previously on nonaccrual status; and

• An increase of $174 thousand in occupancy and equipment expense related to building and equipment maintenance; and

• An increase $434 thousand in data processing fees primarily related to a higher credit card and deposit volume; partially offset by

• A decrease of $638 thousand in salaries and employee benefits primarily related to a decrease in employee benefits and incentive compensation partially offset by the acceleration of equity awards of a former executive; and

• A decrease of $405 thousand in our FDIC insurance expenses as the result of a lower rate and rebate; and

• A decrease in various expense accounts related to the normal course of operating, including expenses related to loan production and business development.

Income tax provision (benefit)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had an income tax expense of $658 thousand and $2.2 million, respectively. The income tax expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 is a result of our operating income. Accounting rules specify that management must evaluate the deferred tax asset on a recurring basis to determine whether enough positive evidence exists to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax asset will be available to offset or reduce future taxes. The tax code allows net operating losses incurred prior to December 31, 2017 to be carried forward for 20 years from the date of the loss, and based on its evaluation, management believes that the Company will be able to realize the deferred tax asset within the period that our net operating losses may be carried forward. Due to the hierarchy of evidence that the accounting rules specify, management determined that there continued to be enough positive evidence to support no valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset at September 30, 2019. The value of our deferred tax asset at September 30, 2019 was computed based on an estimate of taxable income for the full year of 2019.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we had an income tax benefit of $98 thousand and $11.2 million, respectively, as a result of the release of our full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax asset. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, management computed the value of our deferred tax asset based upon an estimate of taxable income for the full year 2018. During that period, it was determined that the valuation allowance that was previously established on the balance of our deferred tax asset was no longer required and the entire $11.1 million allowance was released. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, our taxable income was higher than previously estimated, resulting in further taxable benefit for the third quarter.

Balance Sheet Information

Loans

As indicated in the table below, at September 30, 2019, gross loans totaled approximately $1.16 billion, which represented an increase of $74.1 million, or 6.8%, compared to gross loans outstanding at June 30, 2019. The following table sets forth the composition, by loan category, of our loan portfolio at September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018.

Residential mortgage loans - single family	18,720		1.6	%	21,294		2.0	%	21,176		1.9	%
Construction and land development loans	6,110		0.5	%	12,230		1.1	%	38,496		3.5	%
Consumer loans	91,198		7.9	%	91,442		8.4	%	54,514		5.0	%
Gross loans	$	1,160,570	100.0	%	$	1,086,452	100.0	%	$	1,093,886	100.0	%

The increase of $74.1 million in gross loans during the third quarter of 2019 was primarily a result of total new organic loan fundings of $94.5 million, along with multi-family mortgage loan portfolio purchases totaling $81.0 million, partially offset by loan payments and payoffs of $99.8 million, and charge offs of $1.6 million. The commercial real estate loan portfolio acquisition, which approximately doubled the size of the Bank's existing multi-family mortgage portfolio, was made in light of the Bank's excess liquidity, and favorable performance of this asset class, including high asset quality and attractive yield, but does not reflect a change in the bank’s overall market strategy of banking operating companies.

During the third quarter of 2019, we secured new client relationships with commercial loan commitments of $34.3 million, of which $20.6 million were funded at September 30, 2019. Our total commercial loan commitments decreased to $725.4 million at September 30, 2019 from $729.9 million at June 30, 2019, while the utilization rate of commercial loan commitments decreased to 59.7% at September 30, 2019 from 60.1% at June 30, 2019.

Deposits

	September 30, 2019		June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Type of Deposit	($ in thousands)
Noninterest-bearing checking accounts	$	425,596	$	378,063	$	340,406
Interest-bearing checking accounts	106,325		112,626		64,144

Totals	$	1,213,096	$	1,199,630	$	1,136,002

The increase in total deposits of $77.1 million, or 6.8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from December 31, 2018 is primarily attributable to our strategy to focus on operating companies and help them succeed. Deposit growth was driven by an increase of $127.4 million, or 31.5%, in total checking accounts, partially offset by a decrease of $50.3 million, or 6.9%, in higher costing money market, savings, and certificates of deposit accounts.

The increase in total deposits from June 30, 2019 to September 30, 2019 is primarily attributable to an increase of $41.2 million in total checking accounts, partially offset by a decrease of $31.3 million in money market and savings deposits. The increase to core deposits is the result of new client acquisition, which has resulted in relationships with growing operating companies that are attracting capital investment to fund that growth. Lower priced core deposits remained at 78.4% of total deposits, and higher priced certificates of deposit held constant at 21.6% of total deposits at September 30, 2019 and at June 30, 2019, respectively.

_________________

Non-performing assets at September 30, 2019increased$11.9 million from June 30, 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in non-performing loans. The increase in our non-performing loans during the three months ended September 30, 2019 resulted from the addition of $13.9 million of commercial and consumer loans, which was primarily centered in two commercial loan relationships, partially offset by principal payments of $382 thousand, charge-offs of $1.5 million, and the transfer to other assets of $80 thousand, during the same period.

Our classified assets increased by $26.8 million from $5.2 million at June 30, 2019 to $32.0 million at September 30, 2019, and increased by $18.5 million from $13.6 million at September 30, 2018. The increase this quarter is primarily related to additions of $28.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019, partially offset by principal payments of $420 thousand, charge-offs of $1.5 million, and the transfer to other assets of $80 thousand, during the same period. The additions to classified loans during the three months ended September 30, 2019 represented the migration of loans to classified rating from loans that were previously rated as Special Mention, or "Watch" within our Pass category in the previous quarter.

At September 30, 2019, the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) totaled $12.1 million, which was approximately $612 thousandmore than at June 30, 2019 and $1.4 millionless than at September 30, 2018. The ALLL activity during the three months ended September 30, 2019 included net charge-offs of $1.5 million. There was a $2.1 million provision for loan and lease losses during the period, primarily attributable to the net charge-offs during the quarter, along with the increase in classified loans and growth in the total loan portfolio, partially offset by a favorable change in the composition of loan categories during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The ratio of the ALLL-to-total loans outstanding as of September 30, 2019 was 1.04% as compared to 1.06% and 1.25% as of June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

Capital Resources

At September 30, 2019, the Bank had total regulatory capital of $168.8 million. The ratio of the Bank’s total capital-to-risk weighted assets, which is a principal federal bank regulatory measure of the financial strength of banking institutions, was 13.2% which exceeds the minimum for a bank to be classified under federal bank regulatory guidelines as a “well-capitalized” banking institution, which is the highest of the capital standards established by federal banking regulatory authorities.

In addition to the risk of incurring loan losses and provision for loan losses, which is an inherent risk of the banking business, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the risk that the credit quality of our borrowers declines; potential declines in the value of the collateral for secured loans; the risk that steps we have taken to strengthen our overall credit administration are not effective; the risk of a downturn in the United States economy, and domestic or international economic conditions, which could cause us to incur additional loan losses and adversely affect our results of operations in the future; the risk that our interest margins and, therefore, our net interest income will be adversely affected by changes in prevailing interest rates; the risk of increases in our nonperforming assets, in which event we would face the prospect of further loan charge-offs and write-downs of assets; the risk that we will not be able to manage our interest rate risks effectively, in which event our

operating results could be harmed; the prospect of changes in government regulation of banking and other financial services organizations, which could impact our costs of doing business and restrict our ability to take advantage of business and growth opportunities; the risk that our efforts to develop a robust commercial banking platform may not succeed; and the risk that we may be unable to realize our expected level of increasing deposit inflows. Readers of this news release are encouraged to review the additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business is subject that is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Additional information will be set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2019, which we expect to file with the SEC during the fourth quarter of 2019, and readers of this release are urged to review the additional information that will be contained in that report.

Due to these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business is subject, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, which speak only as of its date, or to make predictions about our future financial performance based solely on our historical financial performance. We disclaim any obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
