Loans and Leases

At June 30, 2020, the total loan and lease portfolio increased to $5.63 billion, 83.5% above its level a year ago and 47.5% above its level at March 31, 2020.  Compared to the first quarter of 2020, loans and leases held for investment increased $1.83 billion, or 65.0%, to $4.65 billion while loans held for sale decreased $19.5 million, or 2.0%, to $976.6 million. Loan and lease originations totaled $2.18 billion during the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $1.67 billion, or 334.5%, from the first quarter of 2020.  The total loan and lease portfolio at June 30, 2020, and March 31, 2020, of $5.63 billion and $3.81 billion, respectively, consisted of approximately 38.7% and 54.8% of unguaranteed loans and leases, respectively.

Average loans and leases were $5.13 billion during the second quarter of 2020 compared to $3.77 billion during the first quarter of 2020.

Loans and leases held for investment, loan and lease originations, and average loans and leases were significantly influenced by the addition of loans originated through the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”).  PPP loans comprised $1.74 billion of the total loans and leases originated during the second quarter of 2020 and are carried at historical cost classified as held for investment at June 30, 2020.  Additionally, the unguaranteed percentage of the total loan and lease portfolio of 38.7% at June 30, 2020, is significantly influenced by the addition of PPP loans carrying a 100% government guarantee.

Deposits

Total deposits increased by $1.23 billion to $5.87 billion at June 30, 2020 from $4.64 billion at March 31, 2020, to support the planned origination of PPP loans and following the defensive strategy to build liquidity during the first quarter of 2020 due to the uncertainty of the effects of COVID-19. Average total interest-bearing deposits for the second quarter of 2020 increased $1.27 billion, or 29.1%, to $5.63 billion, compared to $4.36 billion for the first quarter of 2020. The ratio of average total loans and leases to average interest-bearing deposits was 91.1% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 86.3% for the first quarter of 2020.

Borrowings

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company increased long term borrowings by $1.72 billion through the Federal Reserve’s Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”).  These PPPLF borrowings were used to help fund PPP loans and complement the defensive strategy to build liquidity which commenced in the first quarter of 2020 due to the uncertainty of the effects of COVID-19.  The PPPLF has a 100% advance rate equal to the principal amount of PPP loans pledged as security, carries an interest rate of 0.35% and loans financed under the PPPLF have a neutral impact on regulatory leverage capital ratios.  This increase in borrowings at favorable rates was offset by the repayment of $45.0 million of existing debt at the parent company during the quarter.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2020 rose to $40.9 million compared to $33.9 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $40.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increase from the prior year was driven by significant growth in the total loan and lease portfolios reflecting the Company's ongoing initiative to grow recurring revenue sources and strengthen its liquidity profile.  This increase over the prior year was further enhanced by the aforementioned origination of $1.74 billion in PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020.  The increase from the first quarter of 2020 arose from a higher average loan and lease portfolio balance offset with a 99-basis point decline in the net interest margin from 3.55% to 2.56%.  The decrease in interest earning asset yields outpaced the reduction in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities with the repricing of the loan portfolio on April 1, 2020, following 150 basis points of cuts to the federal funds rate during the first quarter of 2020. Increased liquidity levels for anticipated PPP lending and the resulting PPPLF also depressed the net interest margin during the second quarter of 2020.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2020 increased to $22.4 million compared to $14.7 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2020.  The increase from the prior year was largely driven by a $4.7 million increase in the net gains on sales of loans with the volume of guaranteed loans sold increasing to $155.0 million for the second quarter of 2020 from $71.9 million for the second quarter of 2019. Other noninterest income increased $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year primarily as the result of $2.5 million in revenue resulting from the sale of services from co-developed technology for processing PPP loans. The net loss on the loan servicing asset revaluation totaled $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease from $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2019. Additionally, management fee income earned by Canapi Advisors, the Company’s investment advisor subsidiary, increased by $1.1 million to $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $91 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. Offsetting the increases in noninterest income for the second quarter of 2020, the valuation adjustments related to loans measured at fair value decreased $3.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2019.

Noninterest income increased $16.7 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior quarter.  For the second quarter of 2020, fair value adjustments continued to be negatively impacted by uncertainty and changing conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  The negative valuation adjustment for loans measured at fair value was $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, or a decrease of $9.5 million compared to the prior quarter, while the net loss on the loan servicing asset revaluation was $1.6 million over the same period, or a decrease of $3.1 million compared to the prior quarter. The magnitude of COVID-19 related impacts on loan fair value adjustments in the second quarter was dampened by improving market conditions for unguaranteed loans. Additionally, other noninterest income increased $3.0 million from the prior quarter primarily due to the previously discussed $2.5 million in revenue from co-developed technology.

The average net gain on guaranteed loan sales was $66.8 thousand per million sold in the second quarter of 2020 versus $80.1 thousand per million in the second quarter of 2019 and $63.7 thousand per million in the first quarter of 2020.  The decrease in average loan sale pricing from 2019 was driven by the same factors observed in the prior quarter, including the mix of loans sold by the Company, weakening of market conditions for the purchase of guaranteed loans and less favorable fair value adjustments for exchange-traded interest rate futures contracts. The Company recorded $127 thousand in fair value net gains on exchange-traded interest rate futures contracts during the second quarter of 2020 compared to $3.2 million in fair value net losses during the first quarter of 2020.  The decrease in volatility of exchange-traded interest rate futures contracts was the product of the Company preemptively exiting many such contracts in the first quarter.  Excluding fair value gains and losses on exchange-traded interest rate futures contracts, the average net gain on guaranteed loan sales was $65.9 thousand and $93.7 thousand per million sold in the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $83.5 thousand per million sold in the first quarter of 2020.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2020 increased to $48.1 million compared to $39.6 million for the second quarter of 2019 and decreased from $49.5 million for the first quarter of 2020.

Salaries and employee benefits for the second quarter of 2020 increased to $30.8 million compared to $22.0 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $28.1 million for the first quarter of 2020.  The salaries and employee benefits increase over the second quarter of 2019 and first quarter of 2020 was attributable to the Company’s investment in its workforce to support growth and a variety of initiatives including $7.2 million in expense for a performance bonus pool that was available to all employees other than executive officers.  This expense was mitigated by $4.2 million of deferred salary expense for the origination of PPP loans during the second quarter of 2020.

Related to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, travel expense decreased to $364 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.  Similarly, advertising and marketing expense decreased to $624 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2020.

Asset Quality

Net charge-offs for loans carried at historical cost decreased to $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2020 and increased from $121 thousand in the second quarter of 2019.  Net charge-offs as a percentage of average held for investment loans and leases carried at historical cost, annualized, for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and March 31, 2020, were 0.21%, 0.04% and 0.58%, respectively.  The decline in net charge-offs as a percentage of average held for investment loans and leases was also impacted by the significant addition of PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020.

Unguaranteed nonperforming (nonaccrual) loans and leases, excluding $6.4 million and $8.2 million accounted for under the fair value option at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively, increased to $13.1 million, or 0.34% of loans and leases held for investment which are carried at historical cost, at June 30, 2020, compared to $9.6 million, or 0.48%, at March 31, 2020. 

The unguaranteed exposure of foreclosed assets decreased $279 thousand to $1.2 million at June 30, 2020, compared to March 31, 2020.  Foreclosed assets decreased $1.1 million to $5.7 million at June 30, 2020, from $6.7 million at March 31, 2020.

Provision for Loan and Lease Credit Losses

The provision for loan and lease credit losses for the second quarter of 2020 totaled $10.0 million compared to $11.8 million for the first quarter of 2020 and $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2019.  The Company adopted the new current expected credit losses (“CECL”) standard effective January 1, 2020, and accordingly determined to use forecasted levels of unemployment as a primary economic variable in forecasting future expected losses.  Based upon the severity of ongoing developments resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans and leases has continued to significantly increase.    

The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases totaled $44.1 million at June 30, 2020, compared to $35.9 million at March 31, 2020. The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases as a percentage of total loans and leases held for investment carried at historical cost was 1.16% and 1.81% at June 30, 2020, and March 31, 2020, respectively.  The decline in the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases as a percentage of total loans and leases held for investment carried at historical cost during the second quarter was due to the addition of 100% guaranteed PPP loans.

Income Tax

Income tax expense was $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to an income tax expense of $662 thousand in the second quarter of 2019 and an income tax benefit of $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase in the second quarter of 2020 over the second quarter of 2019 is primarily due to the absence of expected tax credits during 2020.  The increase in income tax expense in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2020 is due to a net pre-tax loss for the first quarter of 2020 combined with a tax benefit of $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2020 due to the enactment of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) on March 27, 2020, which allows the carryback of certain net operating losses to each of the five taxable years preceding the taxable year of such losses.

This press release presents the non-GAAP financial measures previously shown. The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measures are included where applicable in financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results. The Company believes that excluding the amounts associated with these adjustments to present the non-GAAP financial measures provides a meaningful base for period-to-period comparisons, which will assist regulators, investors, and analysts in analyzing the operating results or financial position of the Company. The non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to assess the performance of the Company’s business for presentations of Company performance to investors, and for other reasons as may be requested by investors and analysts. The Company further believes that presenting the non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors and analysts to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by shareholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
