LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wilshire Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:WIBC), the holding company ("the Company") for Wilshire State Bank ("the Bank"), today reported net income available to common shareholders of $5.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. This compares to a net loss available to common shareholders of $40.3 million, or ($1.37) per diluted common share, for the same period of the prior year, and net income available to common shareholders of $10.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in earnings per share from the third quarter of 2011 is attributable to a higher effective tax rate recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Jae Whan (J.W.) Yoo, President and CEO of Wilshire Bancorp, said, "We are pleased to deliver another quarter of solid profitability, which was driven by improved efficiencies and lower credit costs. Compared to the third quarter of 2011, our pre-tax income increased 8%, which reflects the increasing strength in our core operations. We continue to make steady progress on improving our asset quality, which resulted in a 22% decline in non-accrual loans and a 68% decline in charge-offs compared to the prior quarter.
"Our focus for 2012 is to prudently increase our marketing efforts to resume the growth of our franchise. We are adding to our business development staff and re-engaging our markets with more active lending efforts, including re-opening three loan production offices in Georgia, Washington, and Northern California. We are optimistic that our increased loan production will generate higher levels of interest income and gains on sales of loans this year, which should enable us to further increase our level of profitability as we move through 2012," said Mr. Yoo.

STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income before provision for loan losses totaled $25.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, a decrease of 4% from $26.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, and a decrease of 1% from $25.5 million in the third quarter of 2011.
Net interest margin was 4.17% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to 3.72% in the fourth quarter of 2010 and 4.23% in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2011 was primarily due to the reduction in investment yields as a result of newly purchased investments at lower yields in combination with increased prepayment speeds on MBS securities.
Loan yields increased to 5.58% for the fourth quarter of 2011 from 5.54% for the third quarter of 2011 mainly due to the reduction in interest income reversals from non-accrual loans. Total non-accrual loan interest reversals declined to $430 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to $812 thousand during the previous quarter. The total cost of deposits continued to decrease and was 0.80% for the fourth quarter of 2011, down from 0.83% for the third quarter of 2011 and down from 1.04% for the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease from both periods was primarily due to an increase in non-interest bearing deposits.
Net interest margin for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 was 4.34%, an increase of 58 basis points compared to 3.76% for the same period in 2010. Loan yield for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 was 5.54%, down from 5.61% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010. Total cost of interest bearing deposits was 1.07% for 2011 compared to 1.56% for 2010. The increase in net interest margin for the full year was largely the result of a reduction in cost of deposits and borrowings.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income was $5.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, compared to $7.7 million for the previous quarter and $6.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010. The decline in non-interest income from the prior quarter is primarily due to lower gains on sales of loans. The Company decided to retain all but a few of its SBA loans during the fourth quarter of 2011 and recognize interest income, which resulted in the lower gains on sales of loans. The $733 thousand in gains on sales of loans recognized in the fourth quarter of 2011 was attributable to gains on sales of commercial real estate ("CRE") loans totaling $643 thousand and gains from mortgage and SBA loans totaling $70 thousand and $20 thousand, respectively.
Other non-interest income was $2.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, compared to $2.7 million in the previous quarter and $972 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease in other non-interest income from the previous quarter was primarily attributable to a reduction in miscellaneous income while the increase in other non-interest income from the fourth quarter of 2010 was a result of an increase in loan related servicing fees.
Non-Interest Expense
Total non-interest expense was $16.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with $18.5 million for the prior quarter and $19.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease in total non-interest expense compared to both prior periods was primarily due to lower other non-interest expenses, as discussed below.
Total salaries and employee benefits were $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with $6.8 million in the prior quarter and $7.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The increase from the prior quarter is primarily due to the winter incentive bonus that was awarded to employees during the fourth quarter of 2011.
Other non-interest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 totaled $6.5 million, compared with $9.0 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $9.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease in other non-interest expenses from the prior quarter and previous year was primarily attributable to lower expenses related to other real estate owned ("OREO") and lower legal fees.
The Company's operating efficiency ratio improved to 52.4% for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from 55.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 and 60.8% for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.
Tax Provision
For the fourth quarter of 2011 the Company recorded income tax provisions totaling $6.5 million on pretax income of $13.2 million representing a tax rate of 49.1%, compared to income tax provision of $1.1 million on pretax income of $12.2 million, representing an effective tax rate of 9.1% for the previous quarter. The quarter-to-quarter increase in tax provision was the result of discrete reversal of deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryback due to higher than expected income, in addition to changes in other comprehensive income from unrealized gains on investment securities. The Company does not expect these non-recurring tax adjustments to impact tax provision in future quarters.
BALANCE SHEET
Total gross loans were $1.99 billion at December 31, 2011, compared to $2.00 billion at September 30, 2011. The $11.5 million decline in gross loans during the fourth quarter of 2011 was mostly due to the decrease in covered loans which declined $11.4 million compared to a decline of $117 thousand in non-covered legacy loans.
As previously disclosed, upon acquiring certain assets and liabilities of the former Mirae Bank, the Company entered into a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC whereby the FDIC has agreed to share in losses on assets covered under the agreement. The assets covered by the loss sharing agreement include loans and foreclosed loan collateral existing on June 26, 2009 and acquired from Mirae Bank. As a result, loans acquired through the acquisition of Mirae Bank are identified as "covered" loans, and those that were originated at Wilshire are "non-covered" loans or "legacy Wilshire" loans. The following table shows "covered" and "non-covered" gross loans by loan type:

Loan originations for the fourth quarter of 2011 totaled $109.6 million. This compares to total loan originations of $97.5 million for the third quarter of 2011 and $169.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The increase in loan originations from the prior quarter was attributable to a greater emphasis on commercial and industrial and SBA loan production, in addition to higher loan demand.
The following table shows quarterly loan originations by loan type:

Total cash and cash equivalents increased 30% to $325.3 million at December 31, 2011, from $249.9 million at September 30, 2011 and increased 64% from $198.5 million at December 31, 2010. The increase was due to an inflow of deposits during the fourth quarter of 2011 which resulted in the placement of funds into short-term instruments on a temporary basis.
Total OREO was $8.2 million at December 31, 2011, compared with $9.3 million at September 30, 2011 and $15.0 million at December 31, 2010. Outflow from OREO in the fourth quarter of 2011 consisted of 10 sold properties totaling approximately $3.1 million. Inflow to OREO in the fourth quarter of 2011 consisted of 10 properties totaling approximately $3.5 million. The remaining decline in OREO during the fourth quarter was a result of write-downs in value of approximately $1.5 million.
Total deposits were $2.20 billion at December 31, 2011, an increase of 2% from $2.15 billion at September 30, 2011. The increase in total deposits was primarily driven by a 9% increase in non-interest bearing demand deposits, which represented 23.2% of total deposits at December 31, 2011 compared to 21.8% at September 31, 2011. During 2011, total deposits decreased from $2.46 billion at December 31, 2010 to $2.20 billion at December 31, 2011. The decrease of $258.6 million was the result of management's planned action to reduce high cost deposits during the first half of 2011.
During the fourth quarter of 2011, all of the Company's net deferred tax assets decreased to zero as the Company moved the realizable net operating loss carrybacks from 2008 and 2009 to tax receivables. This transaction was a result of the Company's request of tax refunds from the Internal Revenue Service. Now that the Company expects tax refunds in the amount of the deferred tax assets previously recorded, the amount has been transferred to income tax receivables included in other assets.
CREDIT QUALITY
The Company's credit quality metrics continued to improve during the fourth quarter of 2011, highlighted by a 22% decrease in non-accrual loans and a 68% decrease in charge-offs compared to the prior quarter. As a result of the improved credit quality metrics, the Company's provision for loan losses declined to $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, down from $2.5 million for the prior quarter and $83.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.
Despite the reduced provision for loan losses, the Company's coverage ratios remained relatively stable from the end of the prior quarter. The allowance for loan losses totaled $103.0 million, or 5.19% of gross loans at December 31, 2011, compared to $105.3 million, or 5.27% of gross loans, at September 30, 2011. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets was 198% at December 31, 2011, compared with 160% at September 30, 2011. Allowance coverage of legacy Wilshire loans was 5.66% at December 31, 2011, compared with 5.78% at September 30, 2011.
Note Sales
The Company sold $21.3 million in held-for-sale CRE loans (excluding SBA or residential mortgage loans) during the fourth quarter of 2011. All of the loans were sold on an individual basis and had an average discount to their principal balance of 32.8%. Loans held-for-sale sold during the quarter were all non-accrual loans at the end of the third quarter of 2011. All of loans held-for-sale sold were previously marked down to their fair values during previous quarters. During the fourth quarter, the Bank was able to record a net gain on sale of loans totaling $733 thousand even with only $20 thousand in gains from SBA loan sales.
Non-Accrual Loans
At December 31, 2011, total non-covered non-accrual loans declined to $29.8 million, or 1.63% of gross non-covered loans, compared to $39.5 million, or 2.18% of non-covered loans, at September 30, 2011.

The decrease in non-accrual loans is attributable to the sale of $21.3 million of non-accrual loans in addition to a decline in inflows into non-accrual status. Total allowance as a percentage of legacy non-accrual loans increased from 266% at the end of the third quarter of 2011 to 345% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2011.
The inflow into total (covered and non-covered) non-accrual loans was $17.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, a slight increase from inflow of $17.1 million in the third quarter of 2011. Total outflow from total non-accrual loans was $30.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with $38.6 million in the third quarter of 2011.
Impaired Loans
Loans are classified as impaired when based on current information, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan. Non-covered impaired loans at December 31, 2011 totaled $54.7 million, compared with $65.7 million at September 30, 2011. The decrease in impaired loans during the fourth quarter of 2011 is largely attributable to note sales. Total inflows into impaired loans were $19.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $18.2 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Troubled Debt Restructured Loans
At December 31, 2011, total non-covered troubled debt restructured loans or "TDR loans", were $14.7 million, compared to $13.1 million at September 30, 2011. The increase from the prior quarter was due to a modest increase in the number of requests for loan modifications, combined with a lower level of TDR note sales.

At December 31, 2011, total non-covered loan delinquencies were $14.7 million, compared with $7.3 million at September 30, 2011. The increase in delinquencies was primarily attributable to one CRE participation loan totaling $8.3million.

The increase in non-covered classified loans was primarily due to the downgrading of several loans from special mention to substandard during the fourth quarter of 2011. The downgrades were primarily due to decreases in cash flows at the underlying businesses.
The Company's ratio of legacy classified assets to Tier 1 capital plus reserves percentage was 32.2% at December 31, 2011. The requirement for the legacy classified assets to Tier 1 capital plus reserves ratio for the Bank stated in the memorandum of understanding ("MOU") with its regulators is a maximum of 50.0%, with which the Bank is in compliance.
