COSTA MESA, Calif., May 5, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacific Mercantile Bancorp (Nasdaq:PMBC) today reported its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014. For the first quarter of 2014, the Company reported net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share. This compares with a net loss of $14.8 million, or $(0.79) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2013, and a net loss of $3.2 million, or $(0.21) per share, in the first quarter of 2013. The improvement in earnings as compared to the fourth quarter of 2013 is primarily attributable to a decrease in the provision for loan and lease losses, a decrease in the income tax provision, a decline in noninterest expense, and improvement in the contribution of discontinued operations.
Commenting on the results, Steve Buster, President & CEO of Pacific Mercantile Bancorp, said, "Our priority during the first quarter was to build liquidity that we can use to fund our growing pipeline of commercial lending opportunities. We have temporarily invested these funds into low yielding, short-term investments. We are targeting double-digit loan growth in 2014, primarily driven by growth in our commercial loan portfolio. As we redeploy our liquidity into higher yielding loans, we believe we should see a steady increase in our revenue and earnings. Also, we continue to attract experienced banking talent that furthers the development of our commercial lending platform. As we move forward in 2014, we believe we have the products, personnel, capital and liquidity needed to continue building our commercial customer base and to enhance the value of the Pacific Mercantile franchise."

Net Interest Income
Q1 2014 vs Q4 2013. Net interest income decreased $0.3 million, or 3.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of an increase in interest expense of $0.3 million, or 22.4%, due primarily to a combination of an increase in the rates of interest paid on time deposits and an increase in the volume of higher priced time deposits.
Our net interest margin declined to 3.26% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from 3.60% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 primarily attributable to a decrease in our average yield on interest earning assets to 3.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from 4.12% for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Also contributing to the decline is an increase in our cost of funds to 0.82% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from 0.78% for the three months ended December 31, 2013.
Q1 2014 vs Q1 2013. Net interest income increased $0.7 million, or 9.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily as a result of:
- An increase in interest income of $0.5 million, or 6.1%, primarily attributable to an increase in interest earned on loans as a result of a higher average loan balance during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013; and
- A decrease in interest expense of $0.1 million, or 9.1%, due primarily to a decrease in the volume of higher priced time deposits partially offset by an increase in the rates of interest paid on time deposits.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
Q1 2014 vs Q4 2013. The provision for loan and lease losses decreased $2.9 million, or 86.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of net recoveries of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 versus net charge-offs of $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013.
Q1 2014 vs Q1 2013. The provision for loan and lease losses decreased $0.7 million, or 60.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily as a result of net recoveries of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 versus net charge-offs of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Non-interest Income
Q1 2014 vs Q4 2013. Noninterest income decreased $0.7 million, or 36.4%, for the three months March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of:
- A $1.3 million, or 100.0%, decrease in gains on sale of other real estate owned ("OREO"); partially offset by
- A $0.6 million, or 1,459.1%, increase in net gain on sale of commercial small business administration loans.
Q1 2014 vs Q1 2013. Noninterest income increased by $0.9 million, or 274.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily as a result of a $0.7 million, or 100.0%, increase in net gain on sale of commercial small business administration loans.
Non-interest Expense
Q1 2014 vs Q4 2013. Noninterest expense decreased $0.1 million, or 0.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of:
- A decrease of $0.3 million in professional fees related to a decrease in accounting related expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2014;
- A decrease of $0.4 million in other operating expenses as a result of reduced expenditures for business development and loan related expenses; partially offset by
- An increase of $0.3 million in salaries and employee benefits related to the hiring of key employees during 2013;
- An increase of $0.2 million in carrying costs and other expenses incurred in connection with real properties acquired by or in lieu of loan foreclosures (commonly referred to as OREO) as a result of a write down taken on one OREO property during the first quarter of 2014.
Q1 2014 vs Q1 2013. Noninterest expense decreased $0.9 million, or 8.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, as a result of:
- A decrease of $1.3 million in OREO expenses attributable to the reduction in OREO properties during the previous 12-month period; and
- A decrease of $0.8 million in professional fees related to decreased legal expenses due to the resolution of certain lawsuits and other disputes and a decline in nonperforming loans; partially offset by
- An increase of $1.2 million in salaries and employee benefits related to the hiring of key employees during 2013, increases in health care insurance costs, and increases in workers' compensation premiums.
Income tax provision (benefit)
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we recorded an income tax provision of $0 and $7.1 million, respectively, and we recorded an income tax benefit of $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. We had no income tax provision for the first quarter of 2014 as a result of the utilization of the net operating loss ("NOL") credit against our taxable income in the current period. The income tax provision in the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily attributable to pre-tax losses we incurred during the quarter which resulted in an increase in the valuation allowance held against our deferred tax assets. The tax benefit in the first quarter of 2013 was primarily related to the release of the remainder of a valuation allowance, which we had established against our deferred tax asset by means of non-cash charges to the provision for income taxes prior to 2013.
Discontinued operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had net income related to our discontinued operations of $1.2 million as compared to net losses from discontinued operations of $5.0 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively. The net income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily relates to an increase in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights as of March 31, 2014. The net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was the result of reserves incurred with exiting a business, including severance and termination of existing contracts and leases. The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily relates to higher expenses than incoming revenues related to the mortgage banking division.
Balance Sheet Information
Loans
As indicated in the table below, at March 31, 2014 gross loans totaled approximately $778.6 million, which represented an increase of $1.8 million, or 0.2%, from the gross loans outstanding at December 31, 2013. The following table sets forth, in thousands of dollars, the composition, by loan category, of our loan portfolio at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

| Totals | $ 849,046 | $ 780,225 | $ 68,821 |
The increase in higher priced time deposits was primarily the result of our decision to increase the rate on certificates of deposit in order to increase our deposit base and improve our loan-to-deposit ratio. Due primarily to that decision and the resulting increase in higher priced time deposits, lower priced core deposits decreased to 46%, and higher priced time deposits increased to 54%, of total deposits at March 31, 2014, as compared to 51% and 49%, respectively, at December 31, 2013.

Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2014 remained relatively flat from December 31, 2013. Non-performing loans declined to $8.0 million from $11.5 million at December 31, 2013 primarily attributable to the foreclosure of a $1.8 million commercial loan and the resulting transfer to OREO and loan payoffs of $1.9 million.

Capital Resources
At March 31, 2014, we had total capital on a consolidated basis of approximately $138.6 million, and Pacific Mercantile Bank (the "Bank"), our wholly owned banking subsidiary, had total capital of approximately $118.2 million. The ratio of the Bank's total capital-to-risk weighted assets, which is the principal federal bank regulatory measure of the financial strength of banking institutions, was 15.2% and, as a result, the Bank continued to be classified, under federal bank regulatory guidelines, as a "well-capitalized" banking institution, which is the highest of the capital standards established by federal banking regulatory authorities.
The following table sets forth the capital and capital ratios of the Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank (on a stand-alone basis) at March 31, 2014, as compared to the regulatory requirements that must be met for a banking institution to be rated as a well-capitalized institution.

Forward-Looking Information
This news release contains statements regarding our expectations, beliefs and views about our future financial performance and our business, trends and expectations regarding the markets in which we operate, and our future plans. Those statements, which include the quotation from management, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Often, they include words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "project," or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may". Forward-looking statements are based on current information available to us and our assumptions about future events over which we do not have control. Moreover, our business and our markets are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual financial performance in the future, and the future performance of our markets (which can affect both our financial performance and the market prices of our shares), to differ, possibly materially, from our expectations as set forth in the forward-looking statements contained in this news release.
In addition to the risk of incurring loan losses, which is an inherent risk of the banking business, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the risk that the economic recovery in the United States, which is still relatively fragile, will be adversely affected by domestic or international economic conditions, which could cause us to incur additional loan losses and adversely affect our results of operations in the future; uncertainties and risks with respect to the effects that our compliance with the written agreement (the "FRBSF Agreement") with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the "FRBSF") will have on our business and results of operations because, among other things, that Agreement imposes restrictions on our operations and our ability to grow our banking franchise, and the risk of potential future supervisory action against us or the Bank by the FRBSF or if we are unable to meet the requirements of the FRBSF Agreement; the risk that our results of operations in the future will continue to be adversely affected by our exit from the wholesale residential mortgage lending business and the risk that our commercial banking business will not generate the additional revenues needed to fully offset the decline in our mortgage banking revenues within the next two to three years; the risk that our interest margins and, therefore, our net interest income will be adversely affected by changes in prevailing interest rates; the risk that we will not succeed in further reducing our remaining nonperforming assets, in which event we would face the prospect of further loan charge-offs and write-downs of other real estate owned and would continue to incur expenses associated with the management and disposition of those assets; the risk that we will not be able to manage our interest rate risks effectively, in which event our operating results could be harmed; the prospect that government regulation of banking and other financial services organizations will increase, causing our costs of doing business to increase and restricting our ability to take advantage of business and growth opportunities. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business is subject are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 which is on file with the SEC. Additional information will be set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2014 that we intend to file with the SEC on May 9, 2014, and readers of this report are urged to review the additional information that will be contained in that report and in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q that we file with the SEC.
Due to these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business is subject, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, which speak only as of its date, or to make predictions about our future financial performance based solely on our historical financial performance. We disclaim any obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
