LOS ANGELES, Oct. 17, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Preferred Bank (Nasdaq:PFBC), an independent commercial bank focusing on the Chinese-American and diversified Southern California mainstream market, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Preferred Bank ("the Bank") reported net income of $2.8 million or $0.21 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2012. This compares to net income of $6.0 million or $0.46 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2011 and compares to a net loss of $5.6 million or $0.43 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2012. Net income for the third quarter of 2011 was aided by the $4.5 million partial reversal of the Bank's valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset ("DTA"). The loss for the second quarter of 2012 was mainly due to a provision for loan losses of $14.5 million which was the result of two loan relationships which were significantly written down in that quarter.
- Highlights from the third quarter of 2012 include:
- Loan growth of $66.5 million or 6.6%
- Deposits continue to grow; an increase of $56.0 million most of which was DDA
- Continued decline in NPA's
Li Yu, Chairman and CEO commented, "we are very pleased to report third quarter net income of $2.8 million or $0.21 per diluted share. This quarter, we experienced exceptional loan growth. Total loans increased $66.5 million or 6.6% on a sequential quarter basis. This growth is the result of the staffing hires we have made over the past several quarters and the hard work of all our business development team. As of this release, the loan pipeline remains healthy however we do not expect the same level of growth in the fourth quarter as that achieved in the third quarter. This is primarily due to the holiday season as fewer transactions occur during that time."
"The growth of our deposits continues to match that of our loan growth as deposits grew by $56.0 million or 5.4%. We continue to hold a high level of excess liquidity which continues to negatively impact our net interest margin and to a lesser extent, our capital ratios. This high level of cash on the balance sheet was planned however, in light of the pending expiration of the Transaction Account Guarantee program ("TAG"). The TAG Program was originally created as part of the FDIC's Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program in late 2008 as their response to the developing banking crisis and contains, among other things unlimited FDIC insurance on all DDA deposit accounts, regardless of account balance. The TAG Program was subsequently extended via the Dodd-Frank Legislation but is due to expire on December 31, 2012. If the program is not extended by Congress, industry analysts estimate that as much as $1.6 trillion of deposits could flow from community banks to money center banks. We certainly hope that Congress moves to extend this program in some form prior to the end of the year."
"Our net interest margin remains relatively unchanged from previous quarters. Again, this is due to the high levels of cash on the balance sheet (which count in the denominator of the NIM calculation) as well as the fact that a large portion of the third quarter loan growth occurred in September."
"This quarter, we achieved only a small reduction in nonperforming assets ("NPA's") of $5.0 million (Excluding a reduction in performing TDR's of $2.5 million). At present we have in escrow several OREO properties which are scheduled to close before the end of the year. If these closings occur, we will have a very meaningful NPA reduction in the fourth quarter. We are optimistic for further improvement in earnings and NPA trends in the ensuing quarters."
Operating Results
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin. Net interest income before provision for loan and lease losses increased to $13.3 million from the $11.2 million recorded in the third quarter of 2011 and an increase from $13.2 million for the second quarter of 2012. The Bank's taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.88% for the third quarter of 2012, a 14 basis point increase over the 3.74% achieved in the third quarter of 2011 and an 11 basis point decrease from the 3.99% recorded in the second quarter of 2012. The slight decline in margin in the third quarter compared to the second quarter was due to a higher level of interest recoveries on previously charged off loans in the second quarter over the third quarter. Excluding these items, the net interest margin would have been 3.88% in the third quarter and 3.90% in the second quarter resulting in a sequential quarterly decrease in the net interest margin of only 2 basis points.
Noninterest Income. For the third quarter of 2012, noninterest income was $667,000 compared with $588,000 for the same quarter last year and compared to $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2012. The second quarter of 2012 included a gain on sale of investment securities of $488,000 and a gain on the sale of a nonperforming note of $336,000. Service charges on deposits and trade finance income both increased slightly in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period last year.
Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense was $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2012, compared to $8.2 million for the same period last year and $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2012. Salaries and benefits expense increased by $437,000 over the third quarter of 2011 and by $712,000 compared to the second quarter of 2012. The increase over last year and over last quarter was due to higher bonus expense and to a lesser extent a higher staffing level. Occupancy expense was $743,000 compared to the $784,000 recorded in the same period in 2011 and $742,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2012. Professional services expense was $1.0 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $645,000 for the third quarter of 2011 and the $630,000 posted in the second quarter of 2012. The increase was due primarily to an increase in legal fees over the other two comparable periods. OREO-related expenses totaled $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2012 (consisting of $1.5 million in valuation charges/loss on sale) and this represented an increase from the $2.3 million recorded in the second quarter of 2012. Other expenses were $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, a decrease of $780,000 from the same period in 2011 and a decrease of $124,000 over the second quarter of 2012. The variance compared to the same period of last year was primarily due to a net loss of $656,00 recognized from the loan sales.

About Preferred Bank
Preferred Bank is one of the largest independent commercial banks in California focusing on the Chinese-American market. The bank is chartered by the State of California, and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Company conducts its banking business from its main office in Los Angeles, California, and through nine full-service branch banking offices in Alhambra, Century City, City of Industry, Torrance, Arcadia, Irvine, Diamond Bar, Anaheim and Pico Rivera, California. Preferred Bank offers a broad range of deposit and loan products and services to both commercial and consumer customers. The bank provides personalized deposit services as well as real estate finance, commercial loans and trade finance to small and mid-sized businesses, entrepreneurs, real estate developers, professionals and high net worth individuals. Preferred Bank continues to benefit from the significant migration to Southern California of ethnic Chinese from China and other areas of East Asia. While its business is not solely dependent on the Chinese-American market, it represents an important element of the bank's operating strategy, especially for its branch network and deposit products and services. Preferred Bank believes it is well positioned to compete effectively with the smaller Chinese-American community banks, the larger commercial banks and other major banks operating in Southern California by offering a high degree of personal service and responsiveness, experienced multi-lingual staff and substantial lending limits.
