Banner Corporation Earns $46.6 Million, or $2.40 Per Diluted Share for 2013, Including $11.6 Million,
or $0.60 Per Diluted Share, in Fourth Quarter 2013;
Highlighted by Strong Loan and Core Deposit Growth
Walla Walla, WA - January 22, 2014 - Banner Corporation (NASDAQ GSM: BANR), the parent company of Banner Bank and Islanders Bank, today reported net income available to common shareholders in the fourth quarter of 2013 of $11.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to $11.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter and $13.3 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the full year 2013, Banner reported net income available to common shareholders of $46.6 million, or $2.40 per diluted share, compared to $59.1 million, or $3.16 per diluted share in 2012. Banner’s results for 2012 were significantly augmented by a $24.8 million net tax benefit as a result of the reversal of its deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which was partially offset by a $16.5 million net loss for fair value adjustments.
“We are pleased with Banner’s 2013 performance and operating results, which reflect our positive momentum and the hard work of our employees, as we continue to successfully execute on our growth strategies and focus on priorities to deliver sustainable profitability to our shareholders,” said Mark J. Grescovich, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Indeed, Banner’s 2013 results clearly demonstrate that our strategic plan is effective, and we continue to make strides in building shareholder value. As expected, our fourth quarter results also reflect the difficult operating environment presented by continued very low interest rates and slow economic growth, which pressured net interest margin and reduced mortgage banking revenues. Nevertheless, our strong balance sheet and improved operations have positioned us well to meet this difficult environment. In the fourth quarter, our client acquisition strategies again resulted in significant core deposit and loan growth and, coupled with further improvements in asset quality, confirm that our value proposition and strategic execution are being well-received. Banner’s solid financial metrics and market share gains, for both the fourth quarter and the full year 2013, provide strong evidence that our super community bank business model is effectively building franchise and shareholder value.”

*Earnings information excluding gain on sale of securities, fair value and other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) adjustments and, in the current quarter and year, a termination fee related to a cancelled bank acquisition transaction (alternately referred to as other operating income from core operations or revenues from core operations) and the ratio of tangible common equity (which excludes other intangible assets) to tangible assets represent non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Banner's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented.
Income Statement Review
Fourth quarter net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, was $41.6 million, compared to $41.9 million in the preceding quarter and $41.5 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year ended December 31, 2013, net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, was $166.7 million compared to $167.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2012. Growth in average earning assets for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended December 31, 2013, generally offset the negative effect on net interest income due to the decreases in net interest margin compared to the same periods a year earlier.
“Further pressure on asset yields led to margin compression during the fourth quarter. However, our margin remains strong as a result of continuing reductions in our cost of funds and changes in our asset and liability mix,” said Grescovich. Banner's net interest margin was 4.01% for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to 4.09% for both the preceding quarter and in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the net interest margin was 4.11% compared to 4.17% for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Earning asset yields decreased 10 basis points compared to the preceding quarter and decreased 19 basis points from the fourth quarter a year ago. Loan yields decreased by 14 basis points compared to the preceding quarter and were 34 basis points lower than the fourth quarter a year ago. Deposit costs decreased by two basis points in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the preceding quarter and 11 basis points compared to the fourth quarter a year ago. Total cost of funds decreased two basis points in the fourth quarter compared to the preceding quarter and 12 basis points compared to the fourth quarter a year ago.
Banner’s mortgage banking activities declined during the quarter, as higher mortgage rates resulted in a reduction in refinance activity and home purchases from the robust pace of the previous few quarters. Mortgage banking operations contributed $2.2 million to fourth quarter revenues compared to $2.6 million in the preceding quarter and $4.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. In the fourth quarter of 2013, mortgage banking revenues were augmented by $300,000 as a result of reversal of the remaining valuation allowance for previously recorded impairment charges related to mortgage servicing rights. Similar partial reversals of $600,000 and $400,000 were recognized in the second and third quarters of 2013. In 2013, revenues from mortgage banking operations were $11.2 million compared to $13.8 million in 2012.
Deposit fees and other service charges were $6.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $7.0 million in the preceding quarter, and increased 4% compared to $6.4 million the fourth quarter a year ago. For year ended December 31, 2013, deposit fees increased 5% to $26.6 million compared to $25.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increases in deposit fees and service charges continue to reflect additional client acquisition and growth in the number of deposit accounts as a result of successful marketing initiatives.
Revenues in the current quarter were augmented by nearly $3.0 million as a result of a termination fee received related to the cancellation of the proposed acquisition of Home Federal Bank. Banner incurred approximately $550,000 of costs related to this cancelled transaction, which are also reflected in the current quarter and full year operating results. Revenues from core operations* (revenues excluding gain on the sale of securities, fair value adjustments and the termination fee) were $51.6 million in the fourth quarter compared to $52.4 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $54.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Banner's revenues from core operations* were $208.0 million compared to $211.4 million in 2012, with the reduction primarily the result of decreased mortgage banking revenues.
Banner's fourth quarter 2013 results included a $324,000 net loss for fair value adjustments as a result of changes in the valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value. In the preceding quarter, Banner recorded a net loss of $352,000 for fair value

adjustments compared to a net gain of $386,000 in the fourth quarter a year ago. In 2013, Banner's results included a net charge of $2.3 million for fair value adjustments compared to a net charge of $16.5 million in 2012. The net charge in the prior year primarily reflected a change of $23.1 million in the estimated fair value of Banner's junior subordinated debentures, which was partially offset by increases in the estimated value of similar trust preferred securities owned by the Company. Banner’s results for the year ended December 2013 also included a $1.0 million gain on the sale of securities and an OTTI recovery of $409,000, which resulted from the reversal of the same-sized OTTI charge in 2012.
Total other operating income, including the gain on sale of securities, changes in the valuation of financial instruments and the termination fee, was $12.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $10.1 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $13.3 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year ended December 31, 2013, other operating income increased to $43.3 million compared to $26.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, principally due to inclusion of the termination fee and the reduction in the net charge for fair value adjustments. Other operating income from core operations* (excluding gain on the sale of securities, fair value adjustments and the termination fee) was $9.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $10.5 million for the preceding quarter and $12.9 million for the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year 2013, other operating income from core operations* was $41.2 million compared to $43.8 million in 2012, with the decrease principally resulting from the decline in mortgage banking revenues.
Banner’s total other operating expenses (non-interest expenses) were $36.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $34.5 million in both the preceding quarter and the fourth quarter of 2012. Operating expenses for the current quarter included approximately $550,000 related to the termination of the proposed acquisition of Home Federal Bank. For fiscal 2013, total other operating expenses declined slightly to $141.0 million compared to $141.5 million in 2012, as increased compensation and payment and card processing expenses were generally offset by reduced deposit insurance charges and expenses related to real estate owned, as well as gains on the sale of real estate owned.
For the fourth quarter of 2013, Banner recorded $5.7 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of approximately 33.05%, which reflects normal marginal tax rates reduced by the impact of tax-exempt income and certain tax credits. Banner's provision for income taxes for 2013 was $22.5 million compared to a net tax benefit of $24.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, as a result of the elimination of Banner's deferred tax asset valuation allowance which more than offset the accrual of tax expense on 2012's pre-tax income.
Credit Quality
"Banner's credit quality metrics remained strong in the current quarter and reflect our focused attention on maintaining a moderate risk profile. Non-performing loan balances, real estate owned and other repossessed assets all declined modestly compared to the prior quarter and are significantly below the year ago levels," said Grescovich. “Further, our reserve levels remain substantial, providing additional benefit in the current quarter's and year's earnings as no provision for loan losses was required during 2013.” Banner's allowance for loan losses was 2.19% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2013. Net charge offs were $2.5 million in 2013, a $15.9 million or 86% decline as compared to 2012. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2013 were $1.7 million, or 0.05% of average loans outstanding compared to $196,000, or 0.01% of average loans outstanding in the third quarter of 2013 and $2.3 million, or 0.07% of average loans outstanding in the fourth quarter a year ago. As a result, Banner did not record a provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2013 or for the year 2013. In 2012, Banner recorded a $1.0 million provision in the fourth quarter and a $13.0 million provision for the full year. The allowance for loan losses was $75.0 million at December 31, 2013, representing 303% of non-performing loans. Non-performing loans decreased slightly to $24.8 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $24.9 million at September 30, 2013, and decreased 28% when compared to $34.4 million a year earlier.
REO and repossessed assets decreased 16% to $4.2 million at December 30, 2013, compared to $4.9 million at September 30, 2013, and decreased 74% when compared to $15.9 million a year ago.
Banner's non-performing assets were 0.66% of total assets at December 31, 2013, compared to 0.70% at September 30, 2013 and 1.18% a year ago. Non-performing assets decreased 3% to $28.9 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $29.8 million at September 30, 2013 and decreased 42% compared to $50.2 million a year ago.
Balance Sheet Review
“We had an outstanding quarter for loan growth, particularly with respect to targeted loan categories, and core deposits growth,” said Grescovich. “Total loans outstanding increased 4% compared to the prior quarter end and increased 6% compared to a year

ago. Further, we remain encouraged by the potential for growth in our loan origination pipelines. Non-certificate core deposits increased by 4% during the quarter and increased by nearly 9% compared to a year ago. As a result, these core deposits represented 76% of total deposits at the end of the year, compared to 71% of total deposits a year earlier. ”
Net loans were $3.34 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to $3.20 billion at September 30, 2013, and $3.16 billion a year ago. Commercial real estate and multifamily real estate loans increased 6% to $1.33 billion at December 31, 2013 compared to $1.26 billion at September 30, 2013 and increased 10% compared to $1.21 billion a year ago. Commercial and agricultural business loans increased 6% to $910.5 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $858.8 million three months earlier and increased 7% compared to $848.1 million a year ago. Total construction and development loans increased 2% to $340.2 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $333.6 million at September 30, 2013, and increased 12% compared to $304.6 million a year earlier.
The total of securities and interest-bearing deposits was $702.9 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $744.5 million at September 30, 2013, and $745.5 million a year ago. The average effective duration of Banner's securities portfolio was approximately 3.4 years at December 31, 2013.
Total deposits increased modestly to $3.62 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to $3.54 billion at September 30, 2013 and $3.56 billion a year ago. However, non-interest-bearing account balances increased 6% to $1.12 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to $1.05 billion at September 30, 2013, and increased 14% compared to $981.2 million a year ago. Interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts increased 3% to $1.63 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to $1.58 billion at September 30, 2013 and increased 5% compared to $1.55 billion a year ago. Certificates of deposit declined to $872.7 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $900.0 million at September 30, 2013 and $1.03 billion a year earlier.
“We continue to focus on enhancing our deposit franchise, which involves lowering our funding costs, adding new client relationships, and improving our core funding position,” said Grescovich. “As a result, Banner's cost of deposits declined another two basis points to 0.24% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared to 0.26% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, and declined 11 basis points from 0.35% for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.”
Total assets increased 2% to $4.39 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to $4.28 billion at September 30, 2013 and increased 3% compared to $4.27 billion a year ago. At December 31, 2013, total common stockholders' equity was $539.0 million, or $27.63 per share, compared to $506.9 million, or $26.10 per share, a year ago. Banner had 19.5 million shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2013 compared to 19.4 million shares one year earlier. At year end, tangible common stockholders' equity, which excludes other intangible assets, was $536.5 million, or 12.23% of tangible assets, compared to $527.1 million, or 12.32% of tangible assets, at September 30, 2013, and $502.7 million, or 11.80% of tangible assets, a year ago. Banner's tangible book value per share increased to $27.50 at year end, compared to $25.88 per share a year ago.
Banner Corporation and its subsidiary banks continue to maintain capital levels significantly in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” under applicable regulatory standards. Banner Corporation's Tier 1 leverage capital to average assets ratio was 13.64% and its total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 16.99% at December 31, 2013.
