Hope Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HOPE), the holding company of Bank of Hope (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results for its second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, net income increased 23% to $53.8 million, or $0.43 per diluted common share, from $43.7 million, or $0.35 per diluted common share, in the preceding first quarter and increased 101% from $26.8 million, or $0.22 per diluted common share, in the year-ago second quarter.

“Second quarter results underscore the sound management of our operations as the economy gradually recovers from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Kevin S. Kim, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hope Bancorp, Inc. “The composition of our deposits continued to improve with meaningful increases in our lower-cost deposit categories, and our cost of interest bearing deposits declined another 8 basis points quarter-over-quarter. Together with higher average yield on loans, this supported another quarter of net interest margin expansion. After five quarters of significant reserve build under the CECL methodology, we recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $7.0 million driven largely by the improved macroeconomic factors. We also sold $30 million of SBA 7(a) loans given the near record-high premiums available in the secondary markets, and recorded a gain on sale of $2.4 million. All of these factors contributed to a 23% quarter-over-quarter increase in net income of $53.8 million for the 2021 second quarter.

“Loan originations for the quarter were also strong at a record high $894 million and reflected a 61% increase from the preceding first quarter when excluding the second round of PPP originations. However, a considerable decrease in warehouse line utilizations reflecting industry trends, a strategic sale of $119 million of higher-risk hotel/motel loans, PPP loan forgiveness of $164 million, and residential mortgage and SBA 7(a) loan sales contributed to a 2% quarter-over-quarter decrease in loans receivable. While some of these headwinds to net loan growth are expected to persist near-term, we have a robust loan pipeline supported by strong macroeconomic forecasts, and we believe we are well positioned to deliver enhanced profitability for 2021,” said Kim.

Q2 2021 Highlights

• Net interest income before provision for credit losses increased 3% quarter-over-quarter to $126.6 million.
• Net interest margin expanded 5 basis points quarter-over-quarter, largely reflecting an increase in the average yield on loans and lower cost of deposits.
• Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 4% quarter-over-quarter and accounted for 38% of total deposits.
• Cost of interest bearing deposits decreased 8 basis points and total cost of deposits decreased 6 basis points quarter-over-quarter marking the seventh consecutive quarter of declining deposit costs.
• Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $7.0 million.
• Net income increased 23% quarter-over-quarter and totaled $53.8 million, or $0.43 per diluted common share.
• Pre-tax pre-provision income increased 6% quarter-over-quarter to $64.5 million.
• Return on average assets increased to 1.25% from 1.02% in Q1 2021, and return on average equity increased to 10.41% from 8.53%.
• Loan originations increased to a record high $894.1 million from $847.1 million in the first quarter of 2021.
• Loans receivable decreased 2% to $13.42 billion, reflecting decreases in warehouse line utilizations, the sales of $30.0 million of SBA loans, $42.6 million of residential mortgage loans and an aggregate $119.3 million of hotel/motel loans, along with payoffs and pay downs.

Operating Results for the 2021 Second Quarter

Net interest income before the negative provision for credit losses for the 2021 second quarter increased 3% to $126.6 million from $122.6 million in the 2021 first quarter and increased 15% from $109.8 million in the 2020 second quarter. The Company attributed the increase in net interest income primarily to meaningful reductions in interest expense due to lower trending cost of deposits and higher interest income on average loans.

The net interest margin for the 2021 second quarter increased 5 basis points to 3.11% from 3.06% in the preceding 2021 first quarter, reflecting the benefits of lower deposit costs and higher average yield on loans. The net interest margin in the prior-year second quarter was 2.79%.

The weighted average yield on loans for the 2021 second quarter increased 4 basis points to 3.98% from 3.94% in the 2021 first quarter, reflecting the accelerated recognition of net fees due to PPP loan forgiveness. For the 2020 second quarter, the weighted average yield on loans was 4.23%.

The weighted average cost of deposits for the 2021 second quarter decreased for the seventh consecutive quarter to 0.30%, representing a 6 basis point decrease from 0.36% for the 2021 first quarter and a 57 basis point decrease from 0.87% for the 2020 second quarter. The Company attributed the significant improvements in the weighted average cost of deposits to a continuing shift in its deposit mix to lower-cost core deposits and the ongoing downward repricing of interest bearing deposits. The cost of interest bearing deposits was 0.48%, 0.56% and 1.17% for the quarters ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

Noninterest income for the 2021 second quarter increased to $11.1 million from $8.8 million for the 2021 first quarter. In response to the significantly increased premiums available in the secondary market for SBA 7(a) loans, the Company sold $30.0 million of the guaranteed portfolio of its SBA 7(a) loans during the 2021 second quarter and recorded $2.4 million in net gains on sales of SBA loans, versus none in the preceding first quarter. This was partially offset by a reduction in net gains on sales of other loans, representing residential mortgage loans of $1.0 million for the 2021 second quarter, compared with $2.1 million in the preceding first quarter. Noninterest income in the year-ago second quarter totaled $11.2 million.

Noninterest expense for the 2021 second quarter increased to $73.1 million from $70.4 million in the preceding first quarter and $67.0 million in the year-ago second quarter.

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the 2021 second quarter increased to $42.3 million from $41.2 million in the preceding first quarter, largely reflecting annual merit increases effective at the beginning of the second quarter.

Professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased $1.5 million quarter-over-quarter reflecting higher litigation expenses related to existing cases. The Company recorded a one-time $2.1 million impairment during the 2021 second quarter related to the disposition of a licensed software platform. These factors which contributed to higher noninterest expense for the 2021 second quarter were partially offset by a $2.2 million reduction in credit related expenses quarter-over-quarter.

The Company’s efficiency ratio for the 2021 second quarter improved to 53.12% from 53.61% for the preceding first quarter and from 55.37% for the year-ago second quarter. Noninterest expense as a percentage of average assets increased to 1.70% for the 2021 second quarter from 1.65% for the 2021 first quarter and from 1.60% for the 2020 second quarter.

The effective tax rate for the 2021 second quarter increased to 24.8% from 24.2% in the preceding quarter, reflecting the Company’s updated projection for increased annual pretax income than previously budgeted. In the year-ago quarter, the effective tax rate was 26.8%.

Balance Sheet Summary

New loan originations funded during the 2021 second quarter increased to $894.1 million from $847.1 million in the preceding first quarter and $832.0 million in the 2020 second quarter. Following are the components of new loan production for the quarters ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020:

During the 2021 second quarter, the Company acquired $95.6 million of 30-year fixed rate residential mortgage loans. In addition to the sale of $42.6 million in residential mortgage loans and $30.0 million of SBA 7(a) loans during the 2021 second quarter, the Company completed an aggregate $119.3 million in sales of loans from its hotel/motel portfolio that were viewed to be higher risk requiring a longer recovery period from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Altogether with aggregate payoffs and pay downs, first round PPP loan forgiveness of $164.5 million and a $231.0 million quarter-over-quarter decrease in warehouse line utilizations, loans receivable at June 30, 2021 decreased 2% to $13.42 billion from $13.70 billion at March 31, 2021.

Allowance for Credit Losses

For the 2021 second quarter, the Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $7.0 million compared with provision for credit losses of $3.3 million in the preceding first quarter and $17.5 million for the 2020 second quarter. The allowance release in the 2021 second quarter largely reflects improved macroeconomic forecasts, together with the reduction in its loan portfolio and the $119.3 million in sales from the hotel/motel portfolio.

Following is the allowance for credit losses and allowance coverage ratios as of June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020:

Excludes delinquent SBA loans that are guaranteed and currently in liquidation totaling $23.6 million, $25.0 million and $30.3 million, at June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

The increase in delinquent loans 90 days or more on accrual status as of June 30, 2021 largely reflects one loan which matured during the 2021 second quarter. This loan was renewed early in the third quarter of 2021 and is currently performing. The increase in accruing troubled debt restructured loans largely reflects maturity concessions for two credit relationships.

Following are the components of criticized loan balances as of June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020:

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	6/30/2021				3/31/2021				6/30/2020

Doubtful/loss		—				—				11
Total criticized loans	$	675,514			$	660,022			$	427,517

The modest increase in special mention loans quarter-over-quarter primarily reflects the addition of two large credit relationships. The first is a hotel/motel relationship that was downgraded from the COVID-watch grade to Special Mention following the expiration of the modification. The second is a construction loan that is taking longer to stabilize following the completion of the project due to the pandemic-related environment.

Following are net charge offs and net charge offs to average loans receivable on an annualized basis for the three months ended June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020:

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	For the Three Months Ended
	6/30/2021				3/31/2021				6/30/2020
Net charge offs	$	11,491			$	2,098			$	652
Net charge offs/average loans receivable (annualized)		0.35	%			0.06	%			0.02	%

Net charge offs for the 2021 second quarter includes charge offs of $11.8 million, all of which was previously reserved, from the sale of $119.3 million in hotel/motel loans during the 2021 second quarter.
