Riverside, Calif. – January 26, 2015 – Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Company”), NASDAQ GS: PROV, the holding company for Provident Savings Bank, F.S.B. (“Bank”), today announced second quarter earnings for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $2.33 million, or $0.25 per diluted share (on 9.24 million average diluted shares outstanding), compared to net income of $1.60 million, or $0.16 per diluted share (on 10.27 million average diluted shares outstanding), in the comparable period a year ago. The increase in net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was primarily

attributable to a $2.31 million, or 40 percent, increase in the gain on sale of loans; partly offset by a $1.04 million, or 12 percent, increase in salaries and employee benefits expense, a decrease of $544,000, or 61 percent, in the recovery from the allowance for loan losses and an increase of $498,000, or 41 percent, in the provision for income taxes, compared to the same period one year ago.
“We continue to see improved operating fundamentals. The balance of loans held for investment continues to grow, the net interest margin is expanding, the gain on sale of loans from mortgage banking has increased and operating expenses were stable for the first six months of this fiscal year compared to the same period last year,” said Craig G. Blunden, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We are pleased with our financial results but we are not satisfied. We will continue to refine our business model to capitalize on improving economic conditions.”
As of December 31, 2014, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with Tier 1 Leverage, Tier 1 Risk-Based and Total Risk-Based capital ratios of 10.70 percent, 15.15 percent and 16.26 percent, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, these ratios were 12.53 percent, 18.72 percent and 19.98 percent, respectively. The ratios declined primarily as a result of the $25.0 million cash dividend paid by the Bank to the Company in September 2014.
Return on average assets for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 increased to 0.84 percent from 0.56 percent for the same period of fiscal 2014 and return on average stockholders’ equity for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 increased to 6.42 percent from 4.13 percent for the comparable period of fiscal 2014.

On a sequential quarter basis, the second quarter of fiscal 2015 net income reflects a $62,000, or three percent, decrease from net income of $2.39 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease in net income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was primarily attributable to a decrease of $464,000 in the recovery from the allowance for loan losses and an increase of $369,000 in salaries and employee benefits expense, partly offset by an increase of $390,000 in the gain on sale of loans. Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 were unchanged at $0.25 per share as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 results. Return on average assets decreased slightly to 0.84 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from 0.86 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2015; and return on average stockholders’ equity for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was 6.42 percent, compared to 6.59 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
For the six months ended December 31, 2014, net income increased $1.60 million, or 51 percent, to $4.72 million from $3.12 million in the comparable period ended December 31, 2013; and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014 increased $0.20, or 67 percent, to $0.50 from $0.30 for the comparable six month period last year.
Net interest income increased $455,000, or six percent, to $8.11 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $7.66 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2014, attributable to a 27 basis point increase in the net interest margin, partly offset by a $39.7 million, or four percent decrease in average interest-earning assets, primarily due to the decline in interest-earning deposits. Non-interest income increased $2.36 million, or 33 percent, to $9.50 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $7.14 million in the

same quarter of fiscal 2014. Non-interest expense increased $1.04 million, or eight percent, to $13.91 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $12.87 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The increases in non-interest income and non-interest expense relate primarily to increased mortgage banking operations.
The average balance of loans outstanding, including loans held for sale, increased by $72.6 million, or eight percent, to $934.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $861.6 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily due to an increase in loans held for sale attributable to the improved mortgage banking activity and an increase in loans held for investment, primarily in multi-family and commercial real estate loans. The average yield on loans receivable decreased by 21 basis points to 4.01 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from an average yield of 4.22 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in the average loan yield was primarily attributable to payoffs of loans which had a higher yield than the average yield of loans held for investment, adjustable rate loans repricing to lower current market interest rates and a lower average yield on loans held for sale. The average balance of loans held for sale in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $143.5 million with an average yield of 3.93 percent as compared to $112.1 million with an average yield of 4.27 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2014. Loans originated and purchased for investment in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 totaled $50.4 million, consisting primarily of multi-family, commercial real estate and single-family loans. The outstanding balance of “preferred loans” (multi-family, commercial real estate, construction and commercial business loans) increased by $25.1 million, or six percent, to $426.1 million at December 31, 2014 from $401.0 million at June 30, 2014. The percentage of preferred loans to total loans held for

investment at December 31, 2014 increased to 53 percent from 51 percent at June 30, 2014. Loan principal payments received in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 were $43.0 million, compared to $34.7 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014.
The average balance of investment securities decreased by $1.9 million, or 10 percent, to $16.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $18.2 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease was attributable to principal payments received on mortgage-backed securities during the last 12 months, partly offset by an $800,000 investment in short-term time deposits at four minority-owned financial institutions in June 2014 and a $250,000 investment in the common stock of a community development financial institution in July 2014 to help fulfill the Company’s Community Reinvestment Act obligation. The average yield on investment securities decreased 13 basis points to 1.76 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from 1.89 percent for the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The decline in the average yield was primarily attributable to the downward repricing of adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities and the placement of the short-term time deposits referred to above at an average yield of 0.50 percent.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) – San Francisco announced a $132,000 cash dividend, which the Bank received in November 2014. This compares to the same quarter last year when the Bank received a $204,000 cash dividend.
The average balance of the Company’s interest-earning deposits, primarily cash with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, decreased $105.4 million, or 47 percent, to $119.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $224.9 million in the same

quarter of fiscal 2014. The Bank maintains high levels of cash and cash equivalents in response to the uncertain interest rate environment and uses its available liquidity to fund its mortgage banking operations, to fund new loans held for investment, and to pay off borrowings as they mature. The average yield earned on interest-earning deposits was 0.25 percent in both the second quarters of fiscal 2015 and 2014 and lower than the yield that could have been earned if the excess liquidity was deployed in loans or investment securities.
Average deposits decreased $17.1 million, or two percent, to $908.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $925.2 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The average cost of deposits decreased by eight basis points to 0.53 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from 0.61 percent in the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher cost time deposits repricing to lower current market interest rates and a lower percentage of time deposits to the total deposit balance. Transaction account balances or “core deposits” increased $20.5 million, or four percent, to $547.5 million at December 31, 2014 from $527.0 million at June 30, 2014, while time deposits decreased $12.9 million, or three percent, to $358.0 million at December 31, 2014 from $370.9 million at June 30, 2014, consistent with the Bank’s strategy to decrease the percentage of time deposits in its deposit base and to increase the percentage of lower cost checking and savings accounts.
The average balance of borrowings, which consisted of FHLB – San Francisco advances, decreased $14.4 million, or 26 percent, to $41.4 million and the average cost of advances increased 10 basis points to 3.22 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to an average balance of $55.8 million and an average cost of 3.12 percent in
Page 6 of 21

the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in borrowings was primarily attributable to scheduled maturities.
The net interest margin during the second quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 27 basis points to 3.01 percent from 2.74 percent in the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to the deployment of excess liquidity into higher yielding interest-earning assets, primarily to fund increases in loans held for sale and loans held for investment. The average yield of interest-earning assets increased 18 basis points primarily due to the higher average yield of FHLB – San Francisco stock and the lower level of excess liquidity invested at a nominal yield, partly offset by the lower average yields of loans receivable and investment securities. The decline in the average cost of liabilities was primarily due to the downward repricing of time deposits to current market interest rates, partly offset by the increase in the average cost of borrowings as lower costing FHLB advances were repaid at maturity.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company recorded a recovery from the allowance for loan losses of $354,000, compared to the recovery of $898,000 recorded during the same period of fiscal 2014 and the $818,000 recovery recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (sequential quarter).
Non-performing assets, with underlying collateral primarily located in Southern California, decreased to $14.6 million, or 1.32 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2014, compared to $18.4 million, or 1.66 percent of total assets, at June 30, 2014. Non-performing loans at December 31, 2014 decreased $4.8 million or 30 percent since June 30, 2014 to $11.2 million and were primarily comprised of 30 single-family loans ($7.4 million); four multi-family loans ($2.2 million); four commercial real estate loans ($1.5

million); and two commercial business loans ($98,000). Real estate owned acquired in the settlement of loans at December 31, 2014 increased $1.0 million, or 40 percent, to $3.5 million (six properties) from $2.5 million (four properties) at June 30, 2014. The real estate owned at December 31, 2014 was comprised of four single-family properties ($1.3 million), one multi-family property ($193,000) and one commercial real estate property ($2.0 million).
Net recoveries for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 were $(159,000) or (0.07) percent (annualized) of average loans receivable, compared to net charge-offs of $166,000 or 0.08 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 and net charge-offs of $38,000 or 0.02 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (sequential quarter).
Classified assets at December 31, 2014 were $34.0 million, comprised of $8.3 million of loans in the special mention category, $22.2 million of loans in the substandard category and $3.5 million in real estate owned. Classified assets at June 30, 2014 were $37.9 million, comprised of $9.4 million of loans in the special mention category, $26.0 million of loans in the substandard category and $2.5 million in real estate owned.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, no loans were restructured from their original terms or newly classified as a restructured loan. As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding balance of restructured loans was $6.0 million: one loan was classified as special mention ($687,000, on accrual status); and 15 loans were classified as substandard ($5.3 million, all of which were on non-accrual status). As of December 31, 2014, $5.3 million, or 89 percent, of restructured loans were current with respect to their modified payment terms.

The allowance for loan losses was $8.7 million at December 31, 2014, or 1.08 percent of gross loans held for investment, compared to $9.7 million at June 30, 2014, or 1.25 percent of gross loans held for investment. Management believes that, based on currently available information, the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb potential losses inherent in loans held for investment at December 31, 2014.
Non-interest income increased by $2.36 million, or 33 percent, to $9.50 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $7.14 million in the same period of fiscal 2014, primarily as a result of a $2.31 million increase in the gain on sale of loans. On a sequential quarter basis, non-interest income increased $387,000, or four percent, primarily as a result of a $390,000, or five percent, increase in the gain on sale of loans.
The gain on sale of loans increased to $8.04 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 from $5.73 million in the comparable quarter last year, reflecting the impact of a higher average loan sale margin and a higher loan sale volume. The average loan sale margin for mortgage banking was 140 basis points for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, up four basis points from 136 basis points in the comparable quarter last year; however, the average loan sale margin decreased 12 basis points during the current quarter from 152 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (sequential quarter). Total loan sale volume, which includes the net change in commitments to extend credit on loans to be held for sale, was $567.6 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2014, up $151.7 million, or 36 percent, from $415.9 million in the comparable quarter last year. The gain on sale of loans includes a favorable fair-value adjustment on loans held for sale and derivative financial instruments (commitments to extend credit, commitments to sell loans, commitments to sell mortgage-backed

securities, and option contracts) that amounted to a net gain of $1.60 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to an unfavorable fair-value adjustment that amounted to a net loss of $(2.19 million) in the same period last year.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, a total of $565.7 million of loans were originated and purchased for sale, 25 percent higher than the $453.0 million for the same period last year, and 10 percent higher than the $513.8 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (sequential quarter). The loan origination volume has increased from the previous year because mortgage interest rates have recently declined spurring an increase in refinance activity. Total loans sold during the quarter ended December 31, 2014 were $519.9 million, four percent higher than the $500.8 million sold during the same quarter last year, and six percent higher than the $490.4 million sold during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (sequential quarter). Total loan originations (including loans originated and purchased for investment and loans originated and purchased for sale) were $616.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, an increase of 24 percent from $496.1 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2014, and 11 percent higher than the $556.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (sequential quarter).
The sale and operations of real estate owned acquired in the settlement of loans resulted in a net loss of $(51,000) in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to a net loss of $(82,000) in the comparable period last year. Two real estate owned properties were sold in the quarter ended December 31, 2014 compared to four real estate owned properties sold in the same quarter last year. Four real estate owned properties were acquired in the settlement of loans during the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to three real estate owned properties acquired in the settlement of loans in the comparable
Page 10 of 21

period last year. As of December 31, 2014, the real estate owned balance was $3.5 million (six properties), compared to $2.5 million (four properties) at June 30, 2014.
Non-interest expenses increased $1.04 million, or eight percent, to $13.91 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from $12.87 million in the same quarter last year, primarily as a result of the increase in salaries and employee benefits expense. The increase in salaries and employee benefits expense was primarily related to the increase in mortgage banking loan production resulting in higher variable compensation expense.
The Company’s efficiency ratio improved to 79 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 from 87 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The improvement was primarily the result of the increase in non-interest income, partly offset by the increase in non-interest expense.
The Company’s provision for income taxes was $1.72 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2015, an increase of $498,000 or 41 percent, from $1.22 million in the same quarter last year, as a result of the increase in income before taxes. The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was 42.5 percent as compared to 43.3 percent in the same quarter last year. The Company believes that the tax provision recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 reflects its current income tax obligations.
The Company repurchased 156,916 shares of its common stock during the quarter ended December 31, 2014 at an average cost of $15.20 per share. As of December 31, 2014, a total of 69,093 shares or 15 percent of the shares authorized in the October 2014 stock repurchase plan have been purchased, leaving 384,119 shares available for future
Page 11 of 21

purchases. Additionally, the May 2014 stock repurchase plan was completed with the final 87,823 shares purchased during the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
The Bank currently operates 15 retail/business banking offices in Riverside County and San Bernardino County (Inland Empire). Provident Bank Mortgage operates two wholesale loan production offices and 14 retail loan production offices located throughout California.
