DOWNEY ANNOUNCES FULL-YEAR 2007 RESULTS
Newport Beach, California - January 23, 2008 - Downey Financial Corp. (NYSE: DSL) reported a net loss for 2007 of $56.6 million or $2.03 per share on a diluted basis, compared to net income of $199.7 million or $7.16 per share in 2006.
The $439.8 million unfavorable change in pre-tax income/(loss) between years was due primarily to:
- A $283.5 million increase in provision for credit losses;
- A $94.8 million or 18.3% decline in net interest income due to a lower level of interest-earning assets and a lower effective interest rate spread;
- A $23.3 million or 53.4% decline in net gains on the sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities due to both a lower level of loans sold and gain per dollar of loan sold;
- A $17.8 million unfavorable change in income from real estate and joint ventures held for investment, as the current year included writedowns to reflect declines in the value of single family home lots in which the company is a joint venture partner and net gains from sales were below a year ago; and
- A $14.8 million increase in operating expense, of which $9.2 million related to higher costs related to the operation of real estate acquired in settlement of loans.
Rick McGill, President, commented, "We are clearly disappointed with our results. The continued weakening of the housing market and its uncertain future have unfavorably impacted our borrowers and the value of their loan collateral. As a result, single family loan delinquencies, as well as losses from foreclosures, rose significantly during 2007 and led to the large increase to the allowance for loan losses. While we expect the environment to remain challenging in 2008, we enter the year with a strong capital position and stable funding sources from our retail branch franchise. As always, we remain committed to our heritage of providing our customers with excellent service."
For the fourth quarter of 2007, a net loss of $108.8 million or $3.90 per diluted share was recorded, compared to net income of $52.1 million or $1.87 per share in the fourth quarter of 2006. The $274.4 million unfavorable change in pre-tax income/(loss) between fourth quarters primarily reflected:
- A $218.2 million increase in provision for credit losses;
- A $40.9 million decline in net interest income due to a lower level of interest-earning assets and a lower effective interest rate spread;
- A $8.4 million decline in net gains on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities due to both a lower level of loans sold and gain per dollar of loan sold; and
- A $5.3 million increase operating expense, of which $4.5 million related to higher costs associated with the operation of real estate acquired in settlement of loans.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income totaled $89.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2007, down $40.9 million or 31.4% from a year ago, reflecting a $2.773 billion or 17.1% decline in average interest-earning assets and a decline in the effective interest rate spread. The average effective interest rate spread was 2.67% in the current quarter, down 0.55% from a year ago and down 0.12% from the third quarter of 2007.
Compared to a year ago, the current quarter effective interest rate spread was unfavorably impacted by a lower proportion of loan prepayment fees to the amount of deferred loan origination costs written-off as a result of those payoffs, which declined to 48% in the current quarter from 98% a year ago. This decline was primarily the result of a higher proportion of loans being repaid that were no longer subject to prepayment fees primarily due to the increasing age of the loan portfolio. In addition, the current quarter effective interest rate spread was unfavorably impacted by a higher proportion of non-performing assets and a higher proportion of interest-earning assets comprised of investment securities and hybrid adjustable rate mortgage loans, both of which have lower yields than those of option ARM loans that comprised a larger proportion of interest-earning assets a year ago.
For 2007, net interest income totaled $423.8 million, down $94.8 million or 18.3% from a year ago.
Provision for Credit Losses
During the current quarter, the provision for credit losses totaled $218.4 million, up $218.2 million from a year ago. Of the current quarter provision for credit losses, $39.5 million is related to the creation of a specific allowance associated with certain troubled debt restructurings resulting from a borrower retention program which is discussed more fully below in the section entitled "Non-Performing Assets."
At December 31, 2007, the allowance for credit losses was $349 million, comprised of $348 million for loan losses and $1 million for unfunded loan commitments which is reported within accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The increase to the allowance this quarter reflected further increases in delinquent loans and declines in the value of underlying home collateral due to the continued weakening and uncertainty relative to the housing market. This has been particularly true in certain geographic areas such as the greater Sacramento, Stockton, Modesto and Monterey areas of Northern California, the Inland Empire and San Diego County. Net loan charge-offs totaled $12.2 million in the current quarter, compared to $0.3 million a year ago. The current quarter net charge-offs are primarily related to residential one-to-four unit loans, with the annualized net charge-off ratio associated with these loans increasing to 0.43% from 0.01% a year ago.
For 2007, the provision for credit losses totaled $310.1 million and net charge-offs were $22.3 million. This compares with a $26.6 million provision for credit losses and net charge-offs of $0.5 million a year ago.
Other Income
Other income totaled $8.2 million in the current quarter, down $10.0 million or 54.9% from a year ago. The primary factor contributing to the decline between fourth quarters was a $8.4 million decline in net gains on sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities, reflecting both a decline in loans sold and a lower gain per dollar of loan sold. Net gains in the current quarter totaled $0.1 million, including a $0.5 million loss due to the SFAS 133 impact of valuing derivatives associated with the sale of loans. Excluding the impact of SFAS 133, a gain was realized equal to 0.31% on secondary market sales of $176 million, compared with the year-ago gain of 1.23% on secondary market sales of $714 million.
For 2007, other income totaled $46.5 million, down $46.7 million or 50.1% from a year ago.
Operating Expense
Operating expense totaled $67.3 million in the current quarter, up $5.3 million or 8.5% from a year ago. The increase primarily reflected an increase of $4.5 million in net operations of real estate acquired in the settlement of loans due to a higher number of foreclosed properties. In addition to one property comprising 113 single family lots, the inventory of single family homes available for sale totaled 326 at year end, up from 33 a year ago. General and administrative expense increased $0.8 million or 1.2%. All major categories of general and administrative expense were above year-ago levels except for salaries and related costs, down $1.6 million or 3.9% and advertising expense, down $0.5 million.
For 2007, operating expense totaled $258.0 million, up $14.8 million or 6.1% from a year ago.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was a benefit of 42.18% in the current quarter and 42.14% for the current year, compared to an expense of 39.49% in the prior fourth quarter and 41.62% in the prior year.
Assets, Loan Originations and Deposits
At December 31, 2007, assets totaled $13.409 billion, down $2.798 billion or 17.3% from a year ago. During the current quarter, assets declined $1.009 billion due primarily to declines of $592 million in securities available for sale and $569 million in loans held for investment, as loan payoffs exceeded originations. Included within loans held for investment at quarter end were $7.531 billion of single family adjustable rate mortgages subject to negative amortization, down $725 million from September 30, 2007. These loans comprised 69% of the single family residential loan portfolio held for investment at quarter end, compared to 85% a year ago. The amount of negative amortization included in loan balances declined $9 million during the current quarter to $379 million or 5.03% of loans subject to negative amortization. During the current quarter, approximately 24% of loan interest income represented negative amortization, down from 26% in the third quarter of 2007 and 29% in the year-ago fourth quarter.
Loan originations (including purchases) totaled $618 million in the current quarter, down $722 million or 53.9% from $1.340 billion a year ago. Loans originated for sale declined $587 million or 75.3% to $192 million, while single family residential loans originated for portfolio declined $160 million or 28.9% to $394 million. In addition to single family residential loans, $32 million of other loans were originated in the current quarter, up from $7 million a year ago. For 2007, loan originations totaled $3.782 billion, down 51.7% from $7.829 billion in the same period a year ago.
Not included in the above originations are loans in which we modify the terms of the note for borrowers. During the current quarter, we modified $322 million of loans associated with the portfolio retention program, wherein the borrower was current with their loan payments and the new interest rate was no less than that afforded new borrowers, and $9 million of loans at below market interest rates in loan workout situations. For 2007, we modified $421 million associated with the portfolio retention program and $12 million in loan workout situations. Most of the modifications related to option ARM loans were modified into hybrid ARMs where the interest rate is fixed for the first five years or ARMs with interest rates that adjust annually. Both of these products do not permit negative amortization.
Deposits totaled $10.496 billion at quarter end, down $1.289 billion or 10.9% from a year ago. Although deposits declined during the year, the number of checking accounts increased 5.7%. At quarter end, the number of branches totaled 172 (168 in California and four in Arizona). At quarter end, the average deposit size of our 82 traditional branches was $102 million, while the average deposit size of our 90 in-store branches was $24 million. During the year, borrowings declined by $1.413 billion and at year end represented 10.4% of total assets.
Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets increased during the quarter by $618 million to $1.042 billion and represented 7.77% of total assets, compared with 0.68% at year-end 2006. Of the increase, $321 million or about half represented loans modified as part of a borrower retention program initiated at the beginning of the third quarter of 2007 to provide borrowers who are current with their loan payments a cost effective means to change from an option ARM to a less costly financing alternative. Those loans are considered troubled debt restructurings and have been placed on non-accrual status even though the interest rate following modification was no less than that afforded new borrowers. The reason for this is because the modified interest rate was lower than the interest rate on the original loan and the loan was not re-underwritten to prove that the new interest rate was, in fact, a market interest rate for a borrower with similar credit quality. Interest income will be recorded as these borrowers make their loan payments. If these borrowers perform pursuant to the modified terms for six months, the loans will be placed back on accrual status and, while still reported as troubled debt restructurings, they will no longer be classified as non-performing assets because the borrower will have demonstrated an ability to perform in accordance with the loan modification and the interest rate was no less than those afforded new borrowers at the time of modification.
To the extent borrowers whose loans were modified pursuant to the borrower retention program are current with their loan payments, it is relevant to distinguish those from total non-performing assets because, unlike other loans classified as non-performing assets, these loans are paying interest at interest rates no less than those afforded new borrowers. At year-end 2007, approximately 95% of such borrowers had made all loan payments due. Accordingly, when those performing troubled debt restructurings are excluded from the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets, the adjusted ratio drops to 4.78% compared to the actual ratio of 7.77%.
Regulatory Capital Ratios
At December 31, 2007, Downey Financial Corp.’s primary subsidiary, Downey Savings and Loan Association, F.A., had core and tangible capital ratios of 10.18% and a risk-based capital ratio of 19.01%. These capital levels were well above the "well capitalized" standards of 5% and 10%, respectively, as defined by regulation.
