Operating revenue up 12% over prior year. . Pacific Continental Bank recognized as SBA Lender of the Year in Oregon for the third consecutive year. . Funded the first education loan under a unique new Federal loan program. . Named one of the Top 100 businesses to work for in Oregon by the Oregon Business Magazine. . Susan Otcenas, Assistant Vice President & Loan Officer awarded the SBA Financial Services Advocate of the year award. . Financial profile remains strong with return on assets and return on equity of 1.96% and 18.33% respectively. Earnings in the first quarter of 2001 were $1,423, up $117, or 9%, over first quarter 2000 earnings of $1,306. The increase in earnings was primarily due to strong revenue growth, in particular, noninterest income, which was up $426 or 51% over last year. Diluted earnings per share were $0.31 and $0.28 in the first quarters of 2001 and 2000, respectively, an increase of 11%. Return on assets and return on equity in the first quarter of 2001 were 1.96% and 18.33%. That compares to 1.90% and 19.03% reported in first quarter of 2000. Period end assets at March 31, 2001, were $296,291, a 4% increase over one year ago. Average assets for the first quarter of 2001 were $294,528, up 7% over average assets in the same quarter one-year ago. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Interest Income Page 7 Net interest income is the primary source of the Company's revenue. Net interest income is the difference between interest income derived from earnings assets, principally loans, and the interest expense associated with interest bearing liabilities, principally deposits. The volume and mix of earnings assets and funding sources, market rates of interest, demand for loans, and the availability of deposits affect net interest income. Net interest income prior to the provision for loan loss, in the first quarter of 2001 increased $200, or 5%, over same period in 2000. This increase is primarily the result of growth of earning assets. Average earning assets in the current quarter increased 7% when compared to the first quarter of 2000. Net interest margin as a percentage of earning assets was 6.66% in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 6.75% in the same time period in 2000. On three occasions during the first quarter of 2001, the Federal Reserve lowered market interest rates, which resulted in a 1.50% drop in the prime lending rate. This resulted in an immediate decline in the yield on the Company's variable rate loan portfolio. Approximately 40% of the Company's loan portfolio consists of variable rate loans. The decline in yield on variable rate loans was mitigated at the end of February 2001 (the last prime rate drop) by the activation of interest rate floors on variable rate loans. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities did not fall as quickly as asset yields during the first two months of the quarter, resulting in interest margin compression. Net interest margin for March 2000 improved significantly over January and February. March 2001 net interest margin was 6.87% compared to 6.62% in February and 6.48% in January. This improving trend is expected to continue, as earning asset yields should stabilize while cost of funds continues to decline. A detailed comparison of interest income and interest expense between first quarter 2001 and first quarter 2000 shows that interest income grew by $257. Increased volume of earning assets improved interest income by $365, which was offset by lower yields on earning assets reducing interest income by $108. First quarter 2001interest expense increased $57 over the same quarter last year. Higher volumes of interest bearing deposits and borrowings increased interest expense by $107, which was offset by a $50 decline in interest expense due to lower rates on interest bearing liabilities. Provision for Loan Losses Below is a summary of the Company's allowance for loan losses for the first three months of 2001: 2000 ------------------- Balance, December 31, 2000 $2,149 Provision charged to income 245 Loans charged off 27 Recoveries credited to allowance 28 ------------------- Balance, March 31, 2001 $2,395 ------------------- First quarter 2001 provision for loan losses was $245, compared to $150 for the same quarter last year, reflecting the increase in nonperforming assets from December 31, 2000 shown in the table below. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2001 was 1.04% of period end loans compared to 0.88% at March 31, 2000. During the first quarter 2001, the Company had net loan recoveries of $1. Net charge offs in the first quarter last year were $654, which was primarily attributable to a single loan. In January 2001, the Company disposed of $385 of repossessed assets, which were on the books at December 31, 2000. This resulted in a $5 gain upon disposal. The Company experienced significant improvement in the level of nonperforming assets, showing a decline of $1,771 from March 31, 2000 to March 31, 2001. The increase in nonperforming assets from December 31, 2000 to March 31, 2001 did not materially impact first quarter earnings. Below is a summary of nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and other real estate owned for the periods covered in this report: Page 8 Mar. 31, 2001 Dec. 31, 2000 Mar. 31, 2000 -------------- ------------- ------------- Nonaccrual loans and impaired loans $ 796 $ 490 $ 2,352 90 days past due and accruing interest 527 155 217 ------------- ------------- ------------- Total nonperforming loans 1,323 645 2,569 Repossessed assets 0 385 525 ------------- ------------- ------------- Total nonperforming assets 1,323 1,030 3,094 Nonperforming loans guaranteed by government (323) (160) (1,461) ------------- ------------- ------------- Total nonperforming assets, net of guaranteed $ 1,000 $ 870 $ 1,633 Noninterest Income Noninterest income increased $426 or 51% in the first quarter of 2001 when compared to the same period in 2000. All categories of noninterest income improved during the current quarter when compared to last year. The majority of growth in noninterest income was attributable to four categories. Merchant bankcard processing fees were up $134 or 35% due to increased volumes of clients and transactions. The merchant bankcard processing fees have shown 30% to 40% growth in each of the last four years. Loan servicing fees increased by $56 or 127% over last year. This improvement resulted from a $9,000 increase in the loan-servicing portfolio. In addition, last year's loan servicing fees were negatively impacted by a $52 write down of a servicing asset. Excluding last year's write down, loan-servicing fees were up only $4. Mortgage banking income and gains on sales of loans were up $150 or156%. Mortgage banking revenues increased $64 or 82% over last year due to a higher level of home sales and refinancing of existing mortgages, reflecting a more favorable interest rate environment. Gains on sales of loans increased $86 or 481%. During the first quarter 2001, the Company sold approximately $2,900 of loans guaranteed by the government, which resulted in gains of $104. No loans were sold during the first quarter of last year. Finally, gains on sales of securities increased by $61. Gains of $54 were recognized in the current quarter on the sale of a single security, which compares to a loss last year of $7. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense in the current quarter increased $271 or 14% over the same period in 2000. Two categories accounted for the majority of the increase in noninterest expense. Salaries and employee benefits were up $251 or 17% over 2000. Salaries increased by 14% due to new offices and staff increases in existing offices. Increased group insurance premiums accounted for $30 of the increase, while increased commissions on mortgage originations accounted for an additional $27. Bankcard processing expense increased $86 or 27% and was a direct result of increased volumes. Increases in these two categories were offset by a $41 decline in business development expense. During the first quarter of last year, the Company had approximately $35 in one time expenditures related to the promotion of a new online banking product. LIQUIDITY Liquidity is the term used to define the Company's ability to meet its financial commitments. The Company maintains sufficient liquidity to ensure funds are available for both lending needs and the withdrawal of deposit funds. The Company derives liquidity primarily through core deposit growth, the maturity of investment securities, and loan payments. Core deposits include demand, interest checking, money market, savings and local time deposits. Additional liquidity is provided through sales of loans, access to national CD markets, public deposits and both secured and unsecured borrowings. Because of seasonal construction and economic activity and client payment of various tax obligations, the Company traditionally experiences slower growth of core deposits during the first quarter of each year. During the current quarter, core deposits declined by approximately $5,000 from December 31, 2000. As a percentage of total deposits, core deposits were 94% at March 31, 2001 compared to 86% at March 31, 2000. Loan sales of approximately $2,900 reduced some of the seasonal funding pressure during the first quarter. At March 31, 2001, the Company had $52,500 available funding from overnight borrowing agreements with correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. In addition, $7,500 Page 9 was available from the State of Oregon certificate of deposit program. The Company's loan portfolio also contains $11,255 in marketable government guaranteed loans. CAPITAL RESOURCES Capital is the shareholder's investment in the Company. Capital grows through the retention of earnings and the issuance of new stock through the exercise of incentive options and decreases through the payment of dividends and share repurchase programs. Capital formation allows the Company to grow assets and provides flexibility in times of adversity. Banking regulations require the Company to maintain minimum levels of capital. The Company manages its capital to maintain a "well capitalized" designation (the FDIC's highest rating). At March 31, 2001, the Company's total capital to risk weighted assets was 13.59%, compared to 12.71% at March 31, 2000. Quarter end capital grew by $4,665 when compared to last year. Of the total increase in capital, 21% or $967 was attributable to an increase in the net unrealized value of the Company's securities portfolio. The Company projects that earnings retention and existing capital will be sufficient to fund anticipated asset growth, while maintaining a well- capitalized designation from the FDIC. Item 3. Market Risk and Balance Sheet Management The Company's results of operations are largely dependent upon its ability to manage market risks. Changes in interest rates can have significant effects on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Other types of market risk such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk do not arise in the normal course of the Company's business activities. The Company does not use derivatives such as forward and futures contracts, options, or interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk. Interest rate risk generally arises when the maturity or repricing structure of the Company's assets and liabilities differ significantly. Asset and liability management, which among other things, addresses such risk, is the process of developing, testing and implementing strategies that seek to maximize net interest income while maintaining sufficient liquidity. This process includes monitoring contractual maturity and prepayment expectations together with expected repricing of assets and liabilities under different interest rate scenarios. Generally the Company seeks a structure that insulates net interest income from large deviations attributable to changes in market rates by balancing the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities. Interest rate risk is managed through the monitoring of the Company's balance sheet by subjecting various asset and liability categories to interest rate shocks and gradual interest rate movements over a one year period of time. Interest rate shocks use an instantaneous adjustment in market rates of large magnitudes on a static balance sheet to determine the effect such a change in interest rates would have on the Company's net interest income and capital for the succeeding twelve-month period. Such an extreme change in interest rates and the assumption that management would take no steps to restructure the balance sheet does limit the usefulness of this type of analysis. This type of analysis tends to provide a best case or worst case scenario. A more reasonable approach utilizes gradual interest rate movements over a one-year period of time to determine the effect on the Company's net interest income. The Company utilizes the services of The Federal Home Loan Bank's asset/liability modeling software to determine the effect of a simultaneous shift in interest rates. Interest rate shock scenarios are modeled in 1 percent increments (plus or minus) in the federal funds rate. The more realistic forecast assumes a gradual interest rate movement of plus or minus 2.40 percent change in the federal funds rate over a one-year period of time with rates moving up or down 0.60 percent each quarter. The model used is based on the concept that all rates do not move by the same amount. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar repricing characteristics, they may not react correspondingly to changes in market interest rates. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment of loans and early withdrawal of time deposits would likely deviate from those previously assumed. Increases in market rates may also affect the ability of certain borrowers to make scheduled principal payments. Page 10 The model attempts to account for such limitations by imposing weights on the differences between repricing assets and repricing liabilities within each time segment. These weights are based on the ratio between the amount of rate change of each category of asset or liability, and the amount of change in the federal funds rate. Certain non-maturing liabilities such as checking accounts and money market deposit accounts are allocated among the various repricing time segments to meet local competitive conditions and management's strategies The Company strives to manage the balance sheet so that net interest income is not negatively impacted more than 15 percent given a change in interest rates of plus or minus 2 percent. Current evaluations show the Bank is within its established guidelines and there no material changes from the Company's position at December 31, 2000. The current quarter's analysis shows the Company has become more liability sensitive over the past six months, reflecting management's strategy to shorten the maturity structure of its liabilities in anticipation of falling market interest rates. This strategy was implemented to protect the Company's net interest margin in light of the large portion of variable rate loans in its portfolio. The following table shows the estimated impact of the various interest rate scenarios used in the software modeling based on data provided by the Company to the Federal Home Loan Bank at March 31, 2001. The table shows estimates of changes in net interest income. For illustrative purposes the base figure of $17,751 used in the interest rate shock analysis is the annualized actual net interest income for the first three months of 2001. Due to the various assumptions used for this modeling, no assurance can be given that projections will reflect actual results.
