SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heritage Commerce Corp (Nasdaq: HTBK), the holding company (the “Company”) for Heritage Bank of Commerce (the “Bank”), today announced fourth quarter 2020 net income of $11.6 million, or $0.19 per average diluted common share, compared to $5.7 million, or $0.10 per average diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2019, and $11.2 million, or $0.19 per average diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2020, net income was $35.3 million, or $0.59 per average diluted common share, compared to $40.5 million, or $0.84 per average diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2019. All results are unaudited.

“We generated solid earnings, for the full year of 2020, fueled by a year-over-year increase in net interest income, total deposits, and gains on sales of SBA loans,” said Mr. Keith Wilton, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our results in the midst of this challenging economic environment are a testament to our resilient bankers, our customers and our communities. Our participation in the initial rounds of the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), helped meet the financial needs of our customers who were significantly impacted by the pandemic and we are actively participating in this newest round of PPP funding.”

“Credit quality improved with nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) declining (20%) year-over-year and (23%) on a linked quarter basis, to $7.9 million at year end,” said Mr. Wilton. “In fact, we released $1.3 million of our provision for credit losses on loans largely due to recoveries of previously charged off accounts and the successful resolution of a nonperforming credit resulting in the release of specific reserves. This brings our allowance for credits losses on loans (“ACLL”) to total loans to 1.70%, and the ACLL to total loans, excluding PPP loans, to 1.91% at December 31, 2020. Further, capital and liquidity positions remain strong with a total risk-based capital ratio and leverage for the Company (consolidated) at 16.5% and 9.1% respectively, and 15.8% and 9.5% respectively, for the Bank, at December 31, 2020,” added Mr. Wilton.

“During the fourth quarter of 2020, we completed the final touches to our new San Jose corporate headquarters at 224 Airport Parkway and finalized the move of our San Mateo branch and administrative offices to newly renovated facilities,” commented Mr. Wilton. “These combined facilities represent over 50% of the Company’s office footprint and include modifications and upgrades to meet enhanced energy saving requirements, further representing our Company’s commitment to lowering our carbon footprint.”

“The past year presented many challenges to members of the communities we serve. During 2020, we were proud of our employees who volunteered their time to many local organizations that assist minority, disenfranchised and underrepresented groups in our community, and we congratulate them for their service. In addition, we are proud of our Company’s continued ability to provide grants and sponsorships to support these community groups,” said Mr. Wilton.

In response to two economic stimulus laws passed by Congress in the first half of the 2020, Heritage Bank of Commerce funded 1,105 PPP loans, with total principal balances of $333.4 million. Through 2020, PPP loan payoffs totaled $9.1 million while SBA loan forgiveness totaled $33.7 million and the Bank ended the fourth quarter of 2020 with $290.7 million in outstanding PPP loan balances. These loans generated $2.2 million in interest income and $3.9 million in net deferred fee revenue during 2020. At December 31, 2020, total loans included remaining deferred fees on PPP loans of ($6.8) million and deferred costs of $783,000.

On April 7, 2020, the U.S. banking agencies issued an Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus. The statement describes accounting for COVID-19-related loan modifications, including clarifying the interaction between current accounting rules and the temporary relief provided by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES Act”). The Bank made accommodations for initial payment deferrals for a number of customers of up to 90 days, generally, with the potential, upon application, of an additional 90 days of payment deferral (180 days maximum). The Bank also waived all normal applicable fees. As well, most of the deferrals we originally granted have returned to regular payments. The following table shows the deferments at December 31, 2020 by category:

   Underlying Collateral

Total $295 $2,257 $2,552
          
(1) Initial deferments were generally for 3 months         
(2) 2nd deferments were for an additional 3 months         

In addition to its portfolio of SBA PPP loans, the Bank also has a portfolio of SBA 7(a) loans totaling $48.9 million as of January 15, 2021. As part of the SBA’s Coronavirus debt relief efforts, beginning in April of 2020, the SBA commenced a six-month program to cover payments of principal, interest and any associated fees for these borrowers, which largely ended with the September payment. The following table reflects the status of these SBA 7(a) loans as of January 15, 2021:

SBA 7(a) LOANS    Number

New loans / No payment due  3,267 4
CARES Payments  2,062 9

Total Portfolio $48,888 266

The CARES Act was recently amended to include $3.5 billion of extended debt relief payments for SBA borrowers. The program will initially provide for 3 payments of principal and interest to a maximum of $9,000 per month under various criteria and then an additional 5 payments for borrowers considered “underserved” as defined in the amended legislation.

Credit Quality and Performance

At December 31, 2020, NPAs declined by $1.9 million, or (20%), to $7.9 million, compared to $9.8 million at December 31, 2019, and decreased by $2.4 million, or (23%) from $10.3 million at September 30, 2020. Classified assets increased to $34.0 million, or 0.73% of total assets, at December 31, 2020, compared to $32.6 million, or 0.79% of total assets, at December 31, 2019, and $33.0 million, or 0.72% of total assets, at September 30, 2020.

The Company continues to monitor portfolio loans made to commercial customers with businesses in higher risk sectors due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the percentage of loans identified as higher risk to total loans increased slightly compared to the third quarter of 2020. The following table provides a breakdown of such loans as a percentage of total loans for the periods indicated:

The increase in higher risk sector loans in the last three quarters of 2020, compared to the first quarter of 2020, was primarily due to the addition of PPP loans during the second quarter of 2020.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company’s and the Bank’s consolidated capital ratios exceeded regulatory guidelines for a well-capitalized financial institution, and the Basel III minimum regulatory requirements at December 31, 2020.

Our liquidity position refers to our ability to maintain cash flows sufficient to fund operations, meet all of our obligations and commitments, and accommodate unexpected sudden changes in balances of loans and deposits in a timely manner. At various times the Company requires funds to meet short term cash requirements brought about by loan growth or deposit outflows, the purchase of assets, or liability repayments. An integral part of the Company’s ability to manage its liquidity position appropriately is the Company’s large base of core deposits, which are generated by offering traditional banking services in its service area and which have historically been a stable source of funds. To manage liquidity needs properly, cash inflows must be timed to coincide with anticipated outflows or sufficient liquidity resources must be available to meet varying demands. At December 31, 2020, the Company had a strong liquidity position with $1.13 billion in cash and cash equivalents, and $781.6 million in available borrowing capacity from sources including the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”), Federal funds facilities with several financial institutions, and a line of credit with a correspondent bank. The Company also had $498.5 million (at fair market value) in unpledged securities available at December 31, 2020. The loan to deposit ratio was 66.91% at December 31, 2020, compared to 74.20% at December 31, 2019, and decreased from 69.32% at September 30, 2020.

(as of, or for the periods ended December 31, 2020, compared to December 31, 2019, and September 30, 2020, except as noted):

Operating Results:

  • Diluted earnings per share were $0.19 for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $0.10 for the fourth quarter of 2019, and $0.19 for the third quarter of 2020. Diluted earnings per share were $0.59 for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $0.84 for the year ended December 31, 2019.
  • The following table indicates the ratios for the return on average tangible assets and the return on average tangible equity for the periods indicated:

Return on average tangible equity 11.75% 11.41% 5.96% 9.04% 13.09%
  • Net interest income, before provision for credit losses on loans, decreased (13%) to $34.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $39.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to decreases in the prime rate, and yield on investment securities and overnight funds. Net interest income remained flat for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $34.2 million for the third quarter of 2020. Net interest income increased 8% to $141.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $131.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans resulting from the Presidio Bank (“Presidio”) merger, additional interest and fee income from PPP loans, and an increase in the accretion of the loan discount into loan interest income from our merger with Presidio, partially offset by decreases in the prime rate, and decreases in the yield on investment securities and overnight funds.

    • The fully tax equivalent (“FTE”) net interest margin contracted 100 basis points to 3.15% for the fourth quarter of 2020, from 4.15% for the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to a decline in the average yield on loans, investment securities, and overnight funds, partially offset by a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The FTE net interest margin contracted 9 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2020 from 3.24% for the third quarter of 2020, primarily due to a decline in the average yield on investment securities, and overnight funds, partially offset by an increase in the average yield on loans and a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

    • For the year ended December 31, 2020, the FTE net interest margin contracted 78 basis points to 3.50%, compared to 4.28% for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to a decline in the average yield on loans, investment securities, and overnight funds, partially offset by a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

  • The following tables present the average balance of loans outstanding, interest income, and the average yield for the periods indicated:

    • The average yield on the total loan portfolio decreased to 4.93% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 5.76% for the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to a decline in the average yield in the prime rate, new average balances of lower yielding PPP loans, and a decrease in the accretion of the loan purchase discount into loan interest income from the acquisitions.

 In aggregate, the original total net purchase discount on loans from the Focus Business Bank, Tri-Valley Bank, United American Bank, and Presidio loan portfolio was $25.2 million. In aggregate, the remaining net purchase discount on total loans acquired was $12.1 million at December 31, 2020.
   
The average cost of total deposits was 0.14% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 0.26% for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 0.16% for the third quarter of 2020. The average cost of total deposits was 0.17% for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to 0.29% for the year ended December 31, 2019.
  
There was a credit of $1.3 million to the provision for credit losses on loans for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to a $3.2 million provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2019, and a $197,000 provision for credit losses on loans for the third quarter of 2020. There was a $13.2 million provision for credit losses on loans for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to an $846,000 provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2019. 
  
 The increase in the provision for credit losses on loans for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to the year ended December 31, 2019, was driven primarily by a significantly deteriorated economic outlook resulting from the Coronavirus pandemic. The three loan classes where the largest increases in reserves were recorded under the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") loss rate methodology were investor-owned CRE, land and construction, and commercial and industrial (“C&I”). Ongoing impacts of the CECL methodology will be dependent upon changes in economic conditions and forecasts, originated and acquired loan portfolio composition, portfolio duration, and other factors.
   
Total noninterest income was $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower service charges and fees on deposit accounts. Total noninterest income decreased to $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 from $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2020, primarily due to a realized gain on warrants exercised during the third quarter of 2020.
  
 For the year ended December 31, 2020, total noninterest income was $9.9 million, compared to $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to lower service charges and fees on deposit accounts, partially offset by an increase in the cash surrender value of life insurance, a gain realized on a warrant exercised, and a gain on the disposition of foreclosed assets during the first quarter of 2020.
   
Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased to $21.6 million, compared to $30.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower merger-related costs. Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 modestly increased compared to $21.2 million for the third quarter of 2020.
  
 Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased to $89.5 million, compared to $84.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits as a result of annual salary increases, and additional employees and operating costs added as a result of the Presidio merger, partially offset by lower merger-related costs.
   
 The following table reflects pre-tax merger-related costs resulting from the merger with Presidio for the periods indicated:

 Full time equivalent employees were 330 at December 31, 2020, 357 at December 31, 2019, and 342 at September 30, 2020.
  • The efficiency ratio was 59.45% for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to 73.58% for the fourth quarter of 2019, and 57.58% for the third quarter of 2020. The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2020 was 58.96%, compared to 59.76% for the year ended December 31, 2019.

  • Income tax expense was $4.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, and $4.2 million for the third quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 27.6%, compared to 26.9% for the fourth quarter of 2019, and 27.3% for the third quarter of 2020. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $13.8 million, compared to $15.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The effective tax rate was 28.1% for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

    • The difference in the effective tax rate for the periods reported compared to the combined Federal and state statutory tax rate of 29.6% is primarily the result of the Company’s investment in life insurance policies whose earnings are not subject to taxes, tax credits related to investments in low income housing limited partnerships (net of low income housing investment losses), and tax-exempt interest income earned on municipal bonds.

Balance Sheet Review, Capital Management and Credit Quality:

  • Total assets increased 13% to $4.63 billion at December 31, 2020, compared to $4.11 billion at December 31, 2019. Total assets increased 1% from $4.61 billion at September 30, 2020.

  • Securities available-for-sale, at fair value, totaled $235.8 million at December 31, 2020, compared to $404.8 million at December 31, 2019, and $294.4 million at September 30, 2020. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio was comprised of $175.3 million of agency mortgage-backed securities (all issued by U.S. Government sponsored entities), and $60.5 million of U.S. Treasury securities.

D.C. Solar Litigation

 In December 2020, Solar Eclipse Investment Fund III, et al v. Heritage Bank of Commerce, et al., was filed against Heritage, and others, in the Solano County Superior Court (“Solar Eclipse”). Also in December 2020, Solarmore Management Services, Inc. v. Jeff Carpoff et al., (“Solarmore”) filed an amended complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California against Heritage and others. Both of these cases relate to our former deposit relationships with D.C. Solar and their affiliates (collectively “D.C. Solar”) and its sponsored investment funds. These actions seek unspecified damages and are in an early phase. We believe these actions are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend them.

 In re Double Jump, Inc. is pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court of Nevada and was filed by D.C. Solar and some of its affiliated entities. One of the chapter 7 trustees has indicated that it may bring an adversary action against Heritage related to our former deposit relationships with D.C. Solar and its sponsored investment funds. The parties have agreed to attend a pre-filing mediation.
