Earnings Summary
The $0.8 million increase in net income available to common shareholders compared to the third quarter of 2014 was due primarily to a $2.8 million increase in net interest income and a $0.6 million increase in noninterest income, partially offset by a $1.5 million increase in the provision for loan losses and a $0.7 million increase in noninterest expense.
The $12.0 million increase in net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, resulted from a $27.4 million increase in net interest income, partially offset by a $10.6 million increase in noninterest expense and a $5.6 million increase in income tax expense.
Net Interest Income and Margin (Fully Tax Equivalent Basis)
The information set forth below contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Net interest income and the net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis based on the federal statutory rate of 35% to consistently reflect income from taxable loans and securities and tax-exempt securities. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP measures.
Net interest income for the quarter increased $2.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily driven by an increase in loan interest income of $2.0 million from higher average balances and a higher yield from loan fees. Net interest income increased 35.9% to $107.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, which included a 28.4% increase in interest income on loans and a 51.8% increase in interest income on securities.
For the fourth quarter of 2014, our net interest margin increased to 4.12% from 4.00% for the third quarter of 2014. This increase was largely due to the impact of lower cash balances and an increase in the yield earned on our loan portfolio primarily driven by higher loan prepayment fees, which can vary based on the level of prepayments. Loan fees were $3.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to loan fees of $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2014.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, our net interest margin increased to 4.06% compared to 3.91% for the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase was primarily due to lower premium amortization on agency mortgage-backed securities resulting from slower prepayments, continued purchases of higher yielding municipal securities, and lower cost of funds resulting from the trust preferred securities conversion and lower rates paid on deposits.
Provision for Loan Losses
The $1.5 million increase in the provision for loan losses compared to the third quarter of 2014 was primarily due to higher net charge-offs. Net loan charge-offs were $3.9 million, or 1.18%, of average loans (annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to net loan charge-offs of $1.2 million, or 0.40%, of average loans (annualized) for the third quarter of 2014.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $6.2 million, an increase of $0.6 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. Core banking noninterest income represents recurring income from traditional banking services provided to our customers (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section). Core banking noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $4.5 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 3.8%, compared to the third quarter of 2014. The increase in core banking noninterest income was primarily driven by higher foreign exchange fee income, which fluctuates based on our customers' needs for foreign currency-based transactions. The remainder of the increase in noninterest income compared to the third quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in the gain on sale of loans and a $0.2 million decrease in losses on securities driven by third quarter losses from the sale of equity securities obtained through the exercise of warrants.
Noninterest income was $25.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, and was flat compared to noninterest income of $25.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, as $1.9 million higher foreign exchange fee income and a $1.7 million decrease in investment impairment was offset by a $1.9 million decrease in net gain on securities and a $2.2 million decrease in success fees. Success fees are typically volatile and are contingent upon customer success events, such as an acquisition.
Warrant income was $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to warrant income of $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2014. Warrant income was $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2014, the valuation of our remaining warrants held was $4.3 million held in 461 companies, which included $0.2 million held in six publicly traded companies.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 increased $0.7 million, or 4.1%, compared to the third quarter of 2014. The increase primarily resulted from $0.8 million higher personnel expenses. Higher personnel expenses were driven by an increase of 5 full-time equivalent employees from the third quarter of 2014 and higher incentive compensation expense.
Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 increased $10.6 million, or 19.01%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase was largely due to $7.9 million higher personnel expenses driven by an increase of 28 full-time equivalent employees, $0.8 million increase in the provision for unfunded credit commitments, and $0.2 million from amortization of intangibles obtained as part of our acquisition of Sand Hill Finance LLC in December 2013.
Income Tax Provision
Income tax expense increased $0.4 million, or 10.3%, for the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily due to a $1.2 million, or 9.4%, increase in pre-tax income and an income tax true up recorded in the fourth quarter of 2014 related to an increase in our annual effective tax rate to 31.4% from 30.8%.
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 increased $5.6 million, or 55.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to a $17.4 million, or 53.7%, increase in pre-tax income. Our effective tax rate increased to 31.4% for the year ended December 31, 2014 from 31.0% for the year ended December 31, 2013, as a result of the tax impact of the one-time gain recorded on the transfer of the contract for the management of Square 1 Venture 1, L.P. to a third party and an increase in the portion of taxable income.
Loans and Credit Quality
Average loans grew $93.7 million while period-end loans increased $75.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. The increase in commercial loans occurred in all our major client industry segments, except technology which decreased $2.9 million when compared to the third quarter of 2014. Period-end loans to venture firms increased $9.8 million, or 6.1%, while total loans to venture-backed companies, including life sciences, technology and asset-based loans were up $56.2 million, or 5.5%, at December 31, 2014 compared to September 30, 2014.
At December 31, 2014, nonperforming loans totaled $17.2 million, or 1.28%, of total loans compared to $11.8 million, or 0.93%, of total loans at September 30, 2014 and $14.5 million, or 1.34%, of total loans at December 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans at December 31, 2014, was 132.87%, compared to 193.38% at September 30, 2014, and 127.05% at December 31, 2013.
Period-end loans to venture firms increased $25.7 million, or 17.9%, while total loans to venture-backed companies, including life sciences, technology and asset-based loans were up $204.6 million, or 23.3%, at December 31, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013. Net loan charge-offs were $8.1 million, or 0.68%, of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $8.8 million, or 0.95%, for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Investments
Average investments grew 11.4% compared to the third quarter of 2014 as a result of strong deposit growth. Our available-for-sale securities portfolio totaled $1.3 billion at December 31, 2014, an increase of $107.6 million, or 9.1%, compared to $1.2 billion at September 30, 2014. Our held to maturity securities portfolio had an amortized cost of $300.4 million at December 31, 2014, an increase of $22.3 million, or 8.0%, compared to $278.1 million at September 30, 2014.
Average investments grew 36.7% for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. Our available-for-sale securities portfolio increased $370.3 million, or 40.1%, compared to $924.2 million at December 31, 2013. Our held to maturity securities portfolio increased $146.2 million, or 94.8%, compared to $154.3 million at December 31, 2013.
Deposits and Client Investment Funds
Our December 31, 2014 period-end deposits increased $108.1 million, or 4.1%, from September 30, 2014 and increased $669.8 million, or 31.8%, to $2.8 billion from December 31, 2013. These increases were primarily due to growth of our client base and a continued strong funding environment for venture-backed firms. Our period-end noninterest-bearing deposits increased $138.3 million, or 8.1%, while our interest-bearing deposits decreased $30.2 million, or 3.2%, from September 30, 2014. Our period-end noninterest-bearing deposits increased $471.0 million, or 34.1%, and our interest-bearing deposits increased $198.8 million, or 27.4%, from December 31, 2013.
Average on-balance sheet deposits increased $167.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. Despite the increase in deposits, the average cost of deposits of 0.02% and 0.02% for the fourth quarter of 2014 and the third quarter of 2014,
respectively, yielded interest expense on deposits of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Average on-balance sheet deposits increased $566.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013.
Our period-end client investment funds increased to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2014 from $957.6 million at September 30, 2014, an increase of 50.0%, and from $557.9 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of 157.5%, as our clients took advantage of alternative cash investment vehicles offered by Square 1 Asset Management, our registered investment adviser subsidiary. Average off-balance sheet client investment funds grew $276.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. Average off-balance sheet client investment funds grew $436.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information set forth in this release contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures for us are “efficiency ratio,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets,” “net operating income,” "net interest income," and "core banking noninterest income." Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of our business, these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
Efficiency ratio represents noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and other income, excluding gains or losses on the impairment and sale of securities. This measure is used by management to evaluate our operational efficiency.
Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure. This ratio is used by management to evaluate the adequacy of our capital levels. Tangible common equity is computed as total shareholders’ equity, excluding preferred stock, less intangible assets. Tangible assets are calculated as total assets less intangible assets other than loan servicing intangible assets. We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholders’ equity to assets.
Our discussions of net interest income and the net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis based on the federal statutory rate of 35% to consistently reflect income from taxable loans and securities and tax-exempt securities.We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net interest income.
Core banking noninterest income represents recurring income from traditional banking services provided to our customers and excludes line items where results are typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control.We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is noninterest income.
The information provided below reconciles each non-GAAP measure to its most comparable GAAP measure.
