HERITAGE OAKS BANCORP EARNS $1.6 MILLION IN FOURTH QUARTER,
WITH LOAN PORTFOLIO INCREASING 21%
Paso Robles, CA - January 22, 2007 — Heritage Oaks Bancorp (Nasdaq: HEOP), the parent company of Heritage Oaks Bank, today reported preliminary fourth quarter profits highlighting outstanding loan growth on a year over year basis. Net income for the year was $6.7 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, even with earnings in 2005. For the fourth quarter of 2006, net income was $1.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to $1.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2005.
“The past year was marked by tremendous loan growth for Heritage Oaks Bank,” said Lawrence P. Ward, President and CEO. “Throughout 2006, we invested significant time and resources putting the infrastructure in place to support a strategy of aggressive growth in future years. At a considerable up-front expense, we put a branding initiative in place providing the foundation for our growth strategy. We also worked with consultants to develop and enhance our branching strategy as well as our compensation programs. We believe these initiatives will cease being expense items early this year and will begin to contribute to future profitability, build our franchise value and enhance shareholder value.
“The California Central Coast economy continues to flourish, and demand for commercial loans remains strong,” continued Ward. “We have sustained our loan growth momentum while maintaining exceptional credit quality. We will continue to focus on our customers’ needs in order to expand our existing relationships while looking to add new, profitable customers. Not unlike most banks in 2006, we found deposit growth to be very challenging. However ,a number of bank mergers have left the Central Coast with few true community banks and we believe this presents an excellent opportunity for us in 2007.”
2006 Highlights:
· | Net income was $6.7 million, or $1.01 per diluted share. |
· | Revenues increased 6% to $32.0 million. |
· | Return on average equity was 14.10 % and return on average assets was 1.32%. |
· | Net interest margin was 5.94%. |
· | Net loans increased 21% to $439 million. |
· | Asset quality remained strong, non-performing assets were just 0.01% of total assets. |
· | Initiated regular quarterly cash dividends. |
In 2006, Heritage Oaks’ board of directors initiated a regular quarterly cash dividend program and also paid a special cash dividend of $0.25 per share in May. The board also authorized a repurchase plan of up to 100,000 shares of common stock. “We have already repurchased 40,000 shares, and will continue to look for ways to manage our capital while benefiting shareholders,” Ward added.
Operating Results
Total revenues, consisting of net interest income before the provision for loan losses and non-interest income, increased 6% to $32.0 million in 2006 compared to $30.2 million a year ago. Fourth quarter revenues grew 4% to $8.3 million from $8.0 million in the same quarter of 2005. Net interest income increased 8% to $27.1 million in 2006 compared to $25.2 million in 2005. In the fourth quarter, net interest income increased 2% to $7.0 million, from $6.8 million a year ago. “Our healthy net interest income reflects the strong loan growth we have generated over the past year and continues to produce a very healthy net interest margin given the negative impact of the continued high costs associated with borrowed funds needed to support the loan growth,” said Ward. Interest and fees on loans increased 24% from the fourth quarter as well as for the 12 months last year while interest expense increased by 91% and 86% for that same 3 month and 12 month time frame.
Non-interest income increased 6% to $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The Company received a recovery from a 2001 operational loss in the amount of approximately $200,000. This recovery is included in other non-interest income during the fourth quarter of 2006. For 2006, non-interest income was $5.0 million, unchanged from last year.

“In the fourth quarter, our net interest margin came under pressure as deposit costs, as well as costs associated with borrowing from the FHLB and the issuance of $8 million in additional Trust Preferred Securities, increased faster than loan yields,” said Ward. “We expect to see some continued pressure on the net interest margin in future quarters given the current interest rate and yield curve environment.” Net interest margin for the year was 5.94%, compared to 5.78% in 2005. Fourth quarter margin was 5.77%, compared to 6.06% in the fourth quarter a year ago.
Heritage Oaks’ non-interest expense increased in 2006 primarily as a result of increased expenses related to the branding project, consulting fees associated with revisions to the compensation programs, SOX 404 compliance implementation, a branch expansion study, the addition of an EVP / Human Resources and EVP Client Delivery, and the addition of a full service branch office within the bank’s existing footprint in Templeton, California. In addition, two long running legal issues were resolved during the fourth quarter of 2006, resulting in settlement and associated legal costs of approximately $100,000, which are included in other operating expense. Total non-interest expense increased 12% to $21.0 million from $18.8 million in 2005. In the fourth quarter, non-interest expenses were $5.5 million compared to $4.9 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. “We have invested significant resources in these new initiatives in 2006 and are already seeing improvements in our service delivery. 2006 was an unusual year with respect to our operating expenses, and we are expecting our expenses to return to more normal levels this year,” said Ward.
As a result of the increase in expenses, the efficiency ratio increased to 65.5% in 2006 compared to 62.0% in 2005. For the fourth quarter the efficiency ratio was 67.1% compared to 60.6% for the fourth quarter of 2005. The efficiency ratio measures operating expenses as a percent of revenues.
Heritage Oaks generated a return on average equity of 14.1% in 2006 and 13.6% in the fourth quarter, compared to 16.1% and 16.4% during the same periods of 2005. The decline was a result of higher capital balances and earnings even with those reported the prior year. Return on average assets was 1.32% in 2006 compared to 1.38% in 2005, and was 1.24% in the fourth quarter of 2006 from 1.47% in the fourth quarter a year ago.
Balance Sheet
Net loans increased 21% to $439 million at December 31, 2006, compared to $363 million a year earlier. “Loan production for the quarter was strong and the major components of the loan portfolio showed significant growth over the prior year’s balances,” said Ward. “Compared to a year ago, we increased commercial, financial and agricultural loans 42%, real estate construction and land loans 37% and other real estate loans 13%. In addition, our credit quality has remained exceptional.”
Total assets increased 11% to $542 million as of December 31, 2006, compared to $489 million a year earlier. Total deposits were $421 million, compared to $418 million at December 31, 2005. “Our focus and our biggest challenge in 2007 continues to be attracting low cost deposits to fund our loans. Our core deposit base remains very strong as we still have 36% of our deposits in non-interest bearing accounts and an additional 35% of deposits in savings, money market and NOW accounts. Not unlike most banks in 2006 we experienced disintermediation of low or no-cost deposits into higher yielding certificate of deposits. Still, over 71% of our deposits are no or low-cost, providing us with a very efficient funding source to support our loan growth,” said Ward.
Asset quality remains exceptional with non-performing assets at $55,000, or 0.01% of total assets at December 31, 2006. The allowance for loan losses was $4.1 million, or 0.92% of net loans held for investment at year-end compared to $3.9 million or 1.05% of net loans outstanding at the end of 2005. The bank recovered $100,000 from a previously charged off loan and took an additional $120,000 provision in the fourth quarter of 2006. Net charged off loans were $400,000 in 2006.
Book value per share was $7.76 at December 31, 2006, compared to $7.20 per share a year earlier. Tangible book per share was $6.81 at December 31, 2006, compared to $6.18 a year earlier. Shareholders’ equity increased 10% to $49.2 million compared to $44.8 million a year ago.
