LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Hope Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HOPE), the holding company of Bank of Hope (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results for its third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, net income increased 3% to $55.5 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share, from $53.8 million, or $0.43 per diluted common share, in the preceding second quarter and increased 82% from $30.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted common share, in the year-ago third quarter.

“We continued to deliver improved operational performance and profitability in the third quarter of 2021, but more importantly, we took strategic actions to de-risk the loan portfolio which led to significant improvements in asset quality and positioned the Company for a return to organic loan growth in the quarters ahead,” said Kevin S. Kim, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hope Bancorp, Inc. “Business development was the strongest it has ever been topping a record $1.0 billion in new loan production and included record high SBA origination volumes of $115.0 million. While SBA PPP loan forgiveness and strategic loan sales of higher-risk credits mitigated loan growth again this quarter, we believe these headwinds are now largely behind us and have renewed our focus on growth and expansion. Deposits at quarter-end totaled a record high $15.1 billion driven primarily by growth in noninterest bearing demand deposits, which led to an eighth consecutive quarter of declining deposit costs. Benefiting from the strategic actions taken during the quarter, we posted meaningful improvements in our credit quality with nonaccrual loans decreasing 51% and criticized assets declining 19% quarter-over-quarter.

“With the significant improvements in asset quality this quarter, together with our track record of robust loan production and positive core deposit growth, we believe we are well positioned to drive even stronger performance in the years ahead,” said Kim.

Q3 2021 Highlights

• Loan originations increased 13% quarter-over-quarter to a record high $1.01 billion from $894.1 million in the second quarter of 2021.
• Loans receivable remained at $13.42 billion, as record originations were offset by loan sales, SBA PPP loan forgiveness, other payoffs and pay downs and decreases in mortgage warehouse line utilizations.
• Excluding SBA PPP loan forgiveness and strategic loan sales and transfers to held-for-sale of potentially problematic loans, loans receivable would have increased 3% quarter-over-quarter or 12% on an annualized basis.
• Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 7% quarter-over-quarter and accounted for a record 40% of total deposits, contributing to record high deposits of $15.06 billion.
• Cost of interest bearing deposits decreased 6 basis points and total cost of deposits decreased 4 basis points quarter-over-quarter marking the eighth consecutive quarter of declining deposit costs.
• Interest income increased 2% quarter-over-quarter while interest expense declined 8%, resulting in a 3% increase in pre-provision net interest income.
• Net interest margin declined 4 basis points quarter-over-quarter, as the benefit of lower cost of deposits was more than offset by the impact of excess liquidity on the balance sheet.
• The Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $10.0 million.
• Net income increased 3% quarter-over-quarter and totaled $55.5 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share.
• Pre-provision net revenue⁽¹⁾ (“PPNR”) increased 1% quarter-over-quarter and totaled $65.4 million.
• Net charge offs of $42.7 million reflects strategic actions to eliminate potentially problematic assets and resulted in significantly improved asset quality metrics.
• Nonaccrual loans decreased 51% quarter-over-quarter and total criticized loans decreased 19%.
• Return on average assets remained unchanged at 1.25%, while return on average equity increased to 10.61% from 10.41% in the second quarter of 2021.
• Announced new $50 million share buyback program on July 26, 2021 and repurchased 3,487,426 shares as of September 30, 2021, totaling $47.2 million.

Operating Results for the 2021 Third Quarter

Net interest income before the provision (credit) for credit losses for the 2021 third quarter increased 3% to $130.3 million from $126.6 million in the 2021 second quarter and increased 11% from $117.6 million in the 2020 third quarter. The Company attributed the increase to higher interest income on investment securities and loans, as well as lower interest expense on deposits.

The net interest margin for the 2021 third quarter decreased 4 basis points to 3.07% from 3.11% in the preceding 2021 second quarter. The Company noted that excess liquidity on the balance sheet adversely impacted net interest margin by 8 basis points, which more than offset the benefits of lower deposit costs. The net interest margin in the prior-year third quarter was 2.91%.

The weighted average yield on loans for the 2021 third quarter was relatively stable quarter-over-quarter, decreasing 1 basis point to 3.97% from 3.98% in the 2021 second quarter, but declined by 23 basis points from 4.20% in the year-ago third quarter.

The weighted average cost of deposits for the 2021 third quarter decreased for the eighth consecutive quarter to 0.26%, representing a 4 basis point decrease from 0.30% for the 2021 second quarter and a 38 basis point decrease from 0.64% for the 2020 third quarter. The Company attributed the 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 0.42%, 0.48% and 0.92% for the quarters ended September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

Noninterest income for the 2021 third quarter decreased to $10.6 million from $11.1 million for the 2021 second quarter. During the 2021 third quarter, the Company sold $40.2 million in retail mortgage loans and $31.3 million of the guaranteed portion of SBA 7(a) loans, compared with $42.6 million and $30.0 million, respectively, in the preceding second quarter. Noninterest income in the year-ago third quarter totaled $17.5 million, during which quarter the Company recognized $7.5 million in net gains on sales of securities available for sale.

Noninterest expense for the 2021 third quarter increased to $75.5 million from $73.1 million in the preceding second quarter and $73.4 million in the year-ago third quarter.

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the 2021 third quarter increased to $47.0 million from $42.3 million in the preceding second quarter, reflecting a number of factors. The Company increased its bonus reserve for the year to reflect the higher-than-expected financial performance. In addition, employee base salaries increased meaningfully quarter-over-quarter, predominantly reflecting new frontline hires, including a new multi-family lending team recruited from a large money center bank, as well as wage increases necessary to retain existing employees. The Company’s self-funded group insurance expense for the 2021 third quarter was also significantly higher quarter-over-quarter.

In addition, credit related expenses for the 2021 third quarter increased by $1.2 million quarter-over-quarter, but this fluctuation was within normal levels. Altogether, these increases in noninterest expense were partially offset by a $2.0 million quarter-over-quarter decrease in professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2021, reflecting a favorable outcome and closure of a litigation case.

The Company’s efficiency ratio for the 2021 third quarter was fairly stable at 53.58%, compared with 53.12% for the preceding second quarter and 54.31% for the year-ago third quarter. Noninterest expense as a percentage of average assets remained at 1.70% for the 2021 third quarter but improved from 1.73% in the year-ago third quarter.

The effective tax rate for the 2021 third quarter increased to 26.4% from 24.8% in the preceding quarter. The quarter-over-quarter increase reflects an increase in the Company’s projected annual pretax income compared with previous estimates, combined with the benefit of affordable housing partnership investment tax credits having a smaller effect on the larger annual pretax income. In the year-ago quarter, the effective tax rate was 23.3%.

Balance Sheet Summary

New loan originations funded during the 2021 third quarter increased to a record high $1.01 billion from $894.1 million in the preceding second quarter and $782.4 million in the 2020 third quarter. Following are the components of new loan production for the quarters ended September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020:

During the 2021 third quarter, the Company also acquired $113.9 million of 30-year adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans. New loan production and loan purchases during the 2021 third quarter were offset by a number of factors. In addition to the sale of $40.2 million in residential mortgage loans and $31.3 million of SBA 7(a) loans during the 2021 third quarter, the Company completed loan sales of $29.6 million and transferred $131.2 million to loans held-for-sale, de-risking the loan portfolio of potentially problematic assets. Altogether with aggregate payoffs and pay downs, which included SBA PPP loan forgiveness of $235.6 million and a $61.4 million quarter-over-quarter decrease in warehouse line utilizations, loans receivable at September 30, 2021 was flat at $13.42 billion versus $13.42 billion at June 30, 2021. Excluding SBA PPP loan forgiveness and loan sales and transfers of potentially problematic assets to held-for-sale, loans receivable at September 30, 2021 would have increased by approximately $401.7 million, or 3.0% quarter-over-quarter. Loans receivable a year ago at September 30, 2020 totaled $13.12 billion.

During the 2021 third quarter, the Company deployed a portion of its excess cash balances and purchased $571.3 million of investment securities. Securities available for sale totaled $2.67 billion at September 30, 2021, up 17% from $2.27 billion at June 30, 2021.

Total deposits at September 30, 2021 increased 2% to $15.06 billion from $14.73 billion at June 30, 2021 and increased 8% from $14.01 billion at September 30, 2020. Quarter-over-quarter, noninterest bearing demand deposits as of September 30, 2021 increased 7% and money market and other interest bearing demand deposit balances increased 1%, while time deposits decreased 4%.

Allowance for Credit Losses

In the 2021 third quarter, the Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $10.0 million, compared with a negative provision for credit losses of $7.0 million in the preceding second quarter. In the year-ago third quarter, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $22.0 million. The allowance release in the 2021 third quarter reflects improvements in macroeconomic forecasts and the Company’s asset quality.

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

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	9/30/2021				6/30/2021				9/30/2020

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	9/30/2021				6/30/2021				9/30/2020

Total nonperforming assets	$	113,669			$	183,746			$	124,581

(1)	Excludes delinquent SBA loans that are guaranteed and currently in liquidation totaling $20.6 million, $23.6 million and $26.2 million, at September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

The significant reductions in nonperforming loans quarter-over-quarter were due to a number of factors, including strategic loan sales and transfers to held-for sale of potentially problematic loans. The loans transferred to held-for-sale are expected to be sold during the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, one large relationship that was moved to nonaccrual status in the first quarter of 2021 was charged off, and another large relationship on nonaccrual status was paid off in full.

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

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	For the Three Months Ended
	9/30/2021				6/30/2021				9/30/2020
Net charge offs	$	42,678			$	11,491			$	3,922
Net charge offs/average loans receivable (annualized)		1.28	%			0.35	%			0.12	%

Net charge offs for the 2021 third quarter increased significantly from prior periods. This reflects decisive actions by the Company to eliminate potentially problematic assets from its loan portfolio and included charge offs related to the one large relationship that was moved to nonaccrual status in the first quarter of 2021, along with loan sales and transfers to held-for-sale.

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

(dollars in thousands) (unaudited)	9/30/2021				6/30/2021				9/30/2020
Special mention	$	306,766			$	294,559			$	153,388
Substandard		243,684				380,955				311,902
Doubtful/loss		—				—				6,640
Total criticized loans	$	550,450			$	675,514			$	471,930

The significant reductions in total criticized loans quarter-over-quarter was due primarily to the strategic loan sales and transfers to held-for-sale, along with charge offs. As previously noted, loan sales totaled $29.6 million and transfers to held-for-sale amounted to $131.2 million, most of which were classified as substandard.
