Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2014 Operating Results
Net Income and Profitability Ratios
Net income for 2014 was $8.9 million or $0.75 per fully diluted share, compared with net income of $9.8 million or $0.90 per fully diluted share for the full year of 2013. Net income in 2014 was impacted by $3.5 million in charges related to the merger. Excluding merger-related charges, net income before the provision for income taxes for the full year of 2014 was $18.8 million, an increase of 27% compared to net income before the provision for income taxes of $14.8 million for the full year of 2013.
Core net income (defined below) for the full year 2014 was $11.4 million or $0.98 per fully diluted share, an increase of 16.3% from core net income of $9.8 million or $0.91 per fully diluted share, for the full year 2013.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $1.3 million or $0.09 per fully diluted share, compared with net income of $2.8 million or $0.26 per fully diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2013. Merger-related expenses in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $2.4 million, compared to none in the year-ago quarter. Excluding merger-related charges, net income before the provision for income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $4.4 million, an increase of 19% compared to $3.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Core net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $2.7 million or $0.20 per fully diluted share, compared to core net income of $2.8 million or $0.26 per fully diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2013. Primarily due to record loan growth of $98.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company recognized a loan loss provision of $1.7 million, compared to a loan loss provision of $934 thousand in the year-ago quarter.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $1.3 million or $0.09 per fully diluted share, compared with net income of $2.5 million or $0.23 per fully diluted share in the third quarter of 2014. Fourth quarter 2014 merger-related expenses increased $1.8 million to $2.4 million, compared to $631 thousand in the third quarter of 2014. Core net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $2.7 million or $0.20 per fully diluted share, compared to $3.2 million in the prior quarter or $0.28 per fully diluted share. As noted above, in the fourth quarter of 2014 the Company recorded a loan loss provision of $1.7 million, compared to $35 thousand in the prior quarter.
The Company calculates core net income by adding back the tax-effected merger-related charges to GAAP earnings for the periods presented, because the Company believes the use of core net income, a non-GAAP measure, facilitates the assessment of its banking operations and peer comparability. A reconciliation to GAAP is included in tabular form at the end of this release.
“CUB had a tremendous fourth quarter with record loan growth of $98 million,” said David Rainer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CU Bancorp and California United Bank. “Due to this outstanding growth in loan originations, the Company made a corresponding loan loss provision of $1.7 million to augment the allowance for loan losses, which had a dampening effect on quarterly earnings. That said, the Company had revenue growth of $3.1 million over the previous quarter, a 21% increase.
“While we are very excited about the increase in loan originations during the quarter, we continue to focus on prudent underwriting—reflected in CUB’s exceptional asset quality—and pricing discipline.”
“The integration of California United Bank and 1st Enterprise continues on track and our target date for system convergence remains February 9,” said Brian Horton, President of CU Bancorp and California United Bank. “I am very pleased that despite the responsibilities of integration, we have continued to provide our customers with outstanding customer service and added new banking clients, as reflected in the fourth quarter’s strong loan growth.”

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income before the provision for loan losses totaled $53.3 million for the full year of 2014, an increase of $4.5 million or 9.2% from the previous year. The increase was due to higher average loan balances, the result of net organic loan growth.
Net interest margin for the full year of 2014 was 3.79%, compared to 3.96% in the previous year. In 2014 the discount earned on early payoffs was $445 thousand less than 2013; this was coupled with a decline in the core loan yield, as newer loans were originated at lower rates than paid off loans, the combination of which had a negative impact on the net interest margin in 2014.
Net interest income before the provision for loan losses totaled $15.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of $3.4 million or 27.5% from the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily driven by net organic loan growth and one month of combined operations after the merger.
The Company’s net interest income was positively impacted in both the fourth quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013 by the recognition of fair value discount earned on early payoffs of acquired loans. The Company recorded $384 thousand and $571 thousand in discount earned on early loan payoffs of acquired loans in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively, with a positive impact on the net interest margin of 9 basis points and 17 basis points, respectively. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company’s net interest income benefitted from the recovery of $227 thousand in interest on a non-accrual loan that was paid off, with a positive impact on the net interest margin of 5 basis points.
The net interest margin in the fourth quarter of 2014 was 3.78%, compared to 3.69% in the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily driven by average loans being a higher percentage of earning assets in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2014 increased $3.0 million or 23.2% from the third quarter of 2014. This was primarily the result of an increase of $284 million in the Company’s average earning assets, due to one month of combined operations after the merger with 1st Enterprise. The Company recorded $384 thousand and $403 thousand in discount earned on early loan payoffs of acquired loans in the fourth and third quarter of 2014, respectively.
The net interest margin in the fourth quarter of 2014 was 3.78%, compared to 3.70% in the third quarter of 2014. The increase was primarily driven by the recovery of $227 thousand in interest on a non-accrual loan that was paid off, as well as an increase of 4 basis points in the core loan yield to 4.95%, primarily due to the fair value discount amortization on the 1st Enterprise loan portfolio.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $21.7 million of discount remaining on acquired accruing loans, including $16.3 million related to the 1st Enterprise merger.
The Company’s cost of funds was 0.13% in the fourth quarter of 2014, a decrease from 0.16% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 0.14% for the third quarter of 2014.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income was $7.7 million in 2014, an increase of $1.2 million or 18.3% from $6.5 million in the prior year. The increase included an improvement in deposit account service charge income of $367 thousand, $134 thousand in higher gain on sale of SBA loans, and an increase of $784 thousand in other non-interest income. Included in other non-interest income in 2014 were increases of $339 thousand in transaction referral fees, $132 thousand in letters of credit fees, and a $225 thousand settlement in the second quarter related to an other real estate owned property sold in 2013.
Non-interest income was $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of $201 thousand or 10.4% from $1.9 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The overall increase was primarily due to an increase of $225 thousand in deposit account service charge income as a result of the merger and a $208 thousand increase in transaction referral income. These increases were partially offset by a lower gain on sale of SBA loans and a net loss on sale of securities.
Non-interest income in the fourth quarter of 2014 increased $128 thousand or 6.4% over the third quarter of 2014. The overall increase was primarily due to an increase of $222 thousand in deposit account service charge income as a result of the merger, partially offset by a decrease of $46 thousand in gain on sale of SBA loans and a $47 thousand loss on sale of securities.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense incurred in 2014 was $43.4 million, an increase of $5.7 million, or 15.3% from $37.6 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to $3.5 million in charges associated with the merger on November 30, 2014, and one month of salaries and benefits, and other operating expenses included in 2014. In addition, an increase of $611 thousand in stock-based compensation in 2014 was due to the annual granting of stock-based compensation late in the third quarter of 2013, which resulted in reduced non-interest expense in that year.
Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $14.1 million, an increase of $4.5 million, or 46.6% compared to non-interest expense of $9.6 million for the same period of the prior year. In addition to $2.4 million in merger-related charges, the increase included one month of additional expenses associated with 1st Enterprise operations, and an increase of $223 thousand in bonus expense concomitant with record loan production. In addition, in the fourth quarter the Company recorded $125 thousand for one month of core deposit intangible amortization related to the merger.
Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 increased $4.1 million or 40.6% over the third quarter of 2014. The increase was due to merger-related charges of $2.4 million, a $1.8 million increase from $631 thousand of merger-related charges in the third quarter and as noted above, one month of additional expenses associated with 1st Enterprise operations, as well as an increase of $598 thousand in bonus expense on record loan production. In addition, in the fourth quarter the Company recorded $125 thousand for one month of core deposit intangible amortization related to the merger.
“Merger-related charges are running at the expected rate and the Company doesn’t anticipate any increase in the estimated expenses of $7.9 million, including those previously recognized by 1st Enterprise prior to the merger,” said David Rainer.
At March 31, 2014, the quarter prior to announcement of the merger, 1st Enterprise had 82 active full-time equivalent employees and CUB had 181 active full-time equivalent employees, for a total of 263. As of December 31, 2014, the combined entity had reduced its active full-time equivalent employees by 13 to 250.
Income Tax
The Company had both tax deductible and non-tax deductible merger expenses in 2014. Additionally, various merger expenses are not all subject to the same percentage of tax deductibility. The Company’s merger-related expenses in the second and third quarter of 2014 were not tax deductible; merger expenses in the fourth quarter of 2014 provided the Company with
some merger-related tax deductions. Due to the preceding, tax rates for third and fourth quarter of 2014 were 46% and 36%, respectively. For the full year of 2014 the Company’s effective tax rate was 42%.
Balance Sheet
Assets
Total assets at December 31, 2014, were $2.3 billion, a year-over-year increase of $857 million from December 31, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the addition of $782 million in assets from the 1st Enterprise merger, as well as $52 million in goodwill recorded for the transaction.
Loans
Total loans were $1.6 billion at December 31, 2014, an increase of $646 million from $979 million at the end of the prior quarter. This also represents an increase of $692 million from December 31, 2013. The increase in loans in both periods was largely the result of the merger with 1st Enterprise on November 30, 2014, coupled with organic loan growth.
During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company had approximately $98.5 million of net organic loan production. Pay downs in the acquired loan portfolios (excluding 1st Enterprise) were approximately $9 million in the same quarter.
Due to the similarity of the 1st Enterprise and CUB loan portfolios prior to the merger, there was little change in the makeup of the Company’s loan portfolio. At December 31, 2014, commercial and industrial loans, and owner occupied real estate loans combined were $868 million or 53.4% of total loans, compared to $496 million or 50.7% at September 30, 2014.
Deposits
Total deposits at December 31, 2014 were $1.9 billion, an increase of $685 million from $1.3 billion at the end of the prior quarter. This also represents an increase of $715 million from December 31, 2013. The increase in total deposits in both periods was primarily the result of the merger with 1st Enterprise.
Non-interest bearing deposits at December 31, 2014 were $1.0 billion or 53% of total deposits, compared to $698 million or 55% of total deposits at September 30, 2014.
Cost of deposits for the quarter was 0.11%, the same as the prior quarter.
Asset Quality
Total non-performing assets were $4.8 million, or 0.21% of total assets at December 31, 2014, compared with $4.4 million, or 0.30% of total assets, at September 30, 2014. The decline in non-performing assets to total assets ratio was due to the low level of non-performing assets in the 1st Enterprise loan portfolio added from the merger.
Total nonaccrual loans were $3.9 million, or 0.24% of total loans, at December 31, 2014, compared with $4.4 million, or 0.44% of total loans, at September 30, 2014. The decline reflects a nonaccrual loan of $850 thousand, which was acquired in the Premier Commercial Bank portfolio in 2012, that is now other real estate owned; the property is a single-family residence in the state of Washington.
Net charge-offs for 2014 were $231 thousand or 0.02% of average loans.
The Company recorded a loan loss provision of $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. The loan loss provision reflects strong loan origination and modest net charge-offs recorded in 2014, and an overall improving credit quality environment.
The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans (excluding acquired loans that have been marked to fair value and their related allowance) was 1.39% at December 31, 2014, compared with 1.43% at September 30, 2014, and 1.50% at December 31, 2013.
Capital
CU Bancorp remained well capitalized at December 31, 2014 with total risk weighted assets of $1,992,043,000. All of the Company’s capital ratios are above minimum regulatory standards for “well capitalized” institutions.
| | | | | | | | |
December 31, 2014 | | Minimum Capital to Be Considered “Well-Capitalized” | | | CU Bancorp | |
Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | | 10 | % | | | 11.59 | % |
Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | | 6 | % | | | 10.93 | % |
Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio | | | 5 | % | | | 12.89 | % |
At December 31, 2014, tangible common equity was $189.7 million with common shares issued and outstanding of 16,683,856 as of the same date, resulting in tangible book value per common share of $11.37. This compares to tangible common equity of $134.2 million with a tangible book value per common share of $11.95 at September 30, 2014. The increase in tangible common equity and decrease in tangible book value per common share from the prior quarter primarily reflects the merger with 1st Enterprise on November 30, 2014. The Company estimates it will earn back the tangible book value per share in three-and-a-half years.

GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
TCE Calculation and Reconciliation to Total Shareholders’ Equity
(Unaudited)
The Company utilizes the term Tangible Common Equity (TCE), a non-GAAP financial measure. CU Bancorp’s management believes TCE is useful because it is a measure utilized by both regulators and market analysts in evaluating a consolidated bank holding company’s financial condition and capital strength. TCE represents common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and certain intangible assets. A reconciliation of CU Bancorp’s total shareholders’ equity to TCE is provided in the table below for the periods indicated:

The Company utilizes the term Core Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure. CU Bancorp’s management believes Core Net Income is useful because it is a measure utilized by market analysts to understand the effects of merger-related expenses and provides an alternative view of the Company’s performance over time and in comparison to the Company’s competitors. Core net income should not be viewed as a substitute for net income.
