EPS Grows 3 Percent From the First Quarter of 2006 Assets Exceed $15 Billion for the First Time
LOS ANGELES, April 18, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- City National Corporation (NYSE:CYN), the parent company of wholly owned City National Bank and Business Bank of Nevada, today reported first-quarter 2007 net income of $56.5 million, or $1.15 per share. In the first quarter of 2006, the company earned $1.12 per share on net income of $57.2 million.
City National's first-quarter 2007 financial results reflect its February 28, 2007 acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada.
FIRST-QUARTER 2007 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
* City National's first-quarter average loan balances reached $10.6 billion, up 10 percent from the previous year, primarily due to organic growth but also to the acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada. * Average deposits grew to $11.9 billion, a 3 percent increase from the first quarter of 2006, also due in part to the acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada. * Noninterest income totaled $66 million, up 20 percent from the first quarter of last year due to fee revenue generated by wealth management, international banking and cash management services as well as the May 31, 2006 acquisition of Independence Investments LLC. This acquisition was one of the contributors that helped lift noninterest income to 31 percent of City National's total revenue. * Assets under direct management amounted to $27.3 billion, a 42 percent increase from the first quarter of 2006. Assets under management or administration grew 20 percent to $48.6 billion. * Credit quality remained strong in the first quarter of 2007. The company required no provision for credit losses and remained adequately reserved at 1.51 percent of total loans. * City National's first-quarter return on average equity was 15.10 percent and its return on average assets was 1.55 percent.
"Year-over-year loan growth, continuing very good credit quality, sustained double-digit increases in noninterest income and sound expense management contributed to a solid first quarter for City National in a challenging and competitive interest-rate environment," said President and Chief Executive Officer Russell Goldsmith. "The fundamental strength of City National was recognized by Moody's Investors Service, which upgraded the bank's credit rating early this year to Aa3. We were able to achieve these results while at the same time broadening our capabilities and expanding into Nevada with the acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada.
"In the first quarter, City National also reached an agreement to acquire Lydian Wealth Management, an outstanding investment advisory firm for the ultra-affluent market. Through these and other initiatives, City National continued to enhance its capabilities and opportunities as the premier private and business bank in California and beyond."

ASSETS
Total assets at March 31, 2007 were $15.3 billion, 4 percent higher than the previous year.
REVENUE
Revenue grew 3 percent, reaching a total of $213.3 million in the first quarter of 2007.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income totaled $151.3 million in the first quarter of 2007, down 3 percent from the same period last year.
First-quarter average loan balances grew 10 percent to $10.6 billion from the same period of 2006. Commercial real estate and construction loans together increased 12 percent from the first quarter of last year, while both commercial and single-family residential loans grew 9 percent.
City National's prime lending rate was 8.25 percent on March 31, 2007, unchanged from December 31, 2006 and up 50 basis points from the first quarter of last year.
For the three months ended March 31, ------------------------- % Dollars in millions 2007 2006 Change ------------------- ----------- ----------- ------ Average Loans $10,554.9 $ 9,625.0 10 Average Total Securities 2,971.4 3,970.5 (25) Average Earning Assets 13,660.7 13,699.0 (0) Average Deposits 11,916.3 11,587.6 3 Average Core Deposits 10,044.8 10,334.0 (3) Fully Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income 151.3 156.1 (3) Net Interest Margin 4.49% 4.62% (3)
First-quarter average deposits totaled $11.9 billion, 3 percent higher than the same period of 2006 but 1 percent lower than the fourth quarter due to seasonal variations.
Average noninterest-bearing deposits fell 5 percent from the first quarter of 2006, as some of City National's clients shifted funds from core deposit accounts into higher-yielding money market and wealth management instruments. Average noninterest-bearing deposits declined 4 percent from the fourth quarter of last year.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased 11 percent from the first quarter of 2006 and 1 percent from the fourth quarter of last year.
First-quarter title and escrow balances averaged $1.2 billion, virtually unchanged from the first and fourth quarters of last year.
City National's average net interest margin in the first quarter of 2007 was 4.49 percent, compared with 4.51 percent in the fourth quarter of last year. This modest change was attributable primarily to seasonally lower average demand deposits.
Average securities for the first quarter of 2007 totaled nearly $3 billion, a 25 percent decline from the same period last year. The company used investment proceeds to fund loan growth, reduce federal funds purchased and to provide cash for its acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada. At March 31, 2007, the average duration of total available-for-sale securities was 3.4 years. It was 3.2 years at the end of the first quarter of 2006.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income reached $66 million in the first quarter of 2007, up 20 percent from the previous year, or 9 percent excluding the impact of City National's second-quarter 2006 acquisition of Independence Investments and the fourth-quarter disposition of an investment affiliate. The increase in the first quarter of this year reflects the continued growth of City National's wealth management, international banking and cash management services fees.
At March 31, 2007, noninterest income accounted for 31 percent of City National's total revenue, up from 26 percent at March 31, 2006.
Wealth Management
Trust and investment fees grew 39 percent from the first quarter of 2006, while fees for brokerage and mutual fund services increased 18 percent. Assets under management went up 42 percent from the first quarter of 2006, due to the acquisition of Independence Investments, new business, strong investment performance and higher market values. Increases in market values are reflected in fee income primarily on a trailing-quarter basis.
At or for the three months ended March 31, ---------------------- % Dollars in millions 2007 2006 Change -------------------------------- ---------------------- ------ Trust and Investment Fee Revenue $ 30.3 $ 21.8 39 Brokerage and Mutual Fund Fees 13.8 11.7 18 Assets Under Management (a) 27,290.5 19,246.3 42 Total Assets Under Management or Administration (a) 48,648.7 40,435.8 20 (a) Excludes $9.3 billion and $9.4 billion of assets under management for an asset manager in which City National held minority ownership interests as of March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006, respectively.
Other Noninterest Income
International banking services fees grew 8 percent from the first quarter of 2006, reflecting increased demand for both foreign exchange services and letters of credit. Service charges for deposit accounts rose 5 percent from the first quarter of last year, due largely to the sale of additional services to new and existing clients.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
While City National's first-quarter noninterest expense grew 7 percent from the same period last year, it grew less than 2 percent excluding the acquisitions of both Business Bank of Nevada and Independence Investments.
City National's first-quarter efficiency ratio was 57.18, compared with 54.80 for the same period a year ago. This year-over-year increase was due primarily to pressure on core deposits, modest revenue growth and the continued expansion of City National's fee-based businesses, including the addition of Independence Investments.
CREDIT QUALITY
Asset quality remained strong. Net loan recoveries in the first quarter amounted to $1.2 million and nonaccrual loans totaled $23.4 million, or 22 basis points of total loans. In the fourth quarter of last year, nonaccruals amounted to $20.9 million, or 20 basis points of total loans.
City National made no provision for credit losses in the first quarter. The company's loan-loss allowance methodology takes into account several quantitative and qualitative factors, including asset quality, credit risk, loan growth and economic conditions. At March 31, 2007, the allowance for loan and lease losses was $161 million, or 1.51 percent of total loans.
INCOME TAXES
City National's effective tax rate for the first quarter was 36.8 percent. The first-quarter 2006 rate was 37.8 percent. The effective rate for the fourth quarter of last year was 33.5 percent, which included a tax-free gain.
2007 OUTLOOK
Based on current economic conditions and business indicators, management continues to expect earnings per share growth of between 3 percent and 5 percent in 2007.
The company's recently completed acquisition of Business Bank of Nevada is expected to be neutral to earnings per share this year. City National's pending acquisition of Lydian Wealth Management is scheduled to close during the second quarter of 2007. It is expected to be $0.01 dilutive to earnings per share this year and accretive thereafter.
CAPITAL LEVELS
City National remains well-capitalized. Total risk-based capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios at March 31, 2007 were 13.07 percent and 10.57 percent, respectively, compared with the minimum regulatory standards of 10 percent and 6 percent for "well-capitalized" institutions. City National's Tier 1 leverage ratio at March 31, 2007 was 8.55 percent, well above the regulatory minimum ratio of 5 percent.
At December 31, 2006 the total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios were 13.60 percent, 11.09 percent and 8.81 percent, respectively.
The period-end ratio of shareholders' equity to total assets at March 31, 2007 was 10.42 percent, compared with 10.04 percent at the same time in 2006 and 10.02 percent at December 31, 2006.
In the first quarter, Moody's Investors Service upgraded City National Bank's credit rating to Aa3.
City National adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), as of January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the company recognized a $28 million increase in the reserve for contingent tax liabilities, which was accounted for as a reduction to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings.
STOCK REPURCHASE
In the first quarter of 2007, City National repurchased 263,000 shares at an average cost of $72.11. The company is currently authorized to buy back an additional 794,700 shares.
