LOS ANGELES, Jan. 25, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wilshire Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:WIBC) (the “Company”), the holding company for Wilshire Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $13.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. This compares to net income of $16.1 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share, for the same period of the prior year, and net income of $13.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2015. Excluding $994,000 in non-deductible merger-related costs related to the BBCN Bancorp Inc. (“BBCN”) merger of equals, net income was $14.9 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2015.*
Jae Whan (J.W.) Yoo, President and CEO of Wilshire Bancorp, said, “We finished 2015 with excellent momentum, generating more than $500 million in loan originations, a historical high. During the fourth quarter, we received strong contributions from most of our major lending areas including commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, and Small Business Administration (“SBA”). With our strong loan production in the second half of the year, we were able to increase our total loan portfolio by 16% in 2015, while experiencing positive trends in asset quality.
“We were also able to effectively redeploy a significant portion of our excess liquidity during the fourth quarter by funding our strong loan production, investing in our securities portfolio, and allowing certain higher cost deposits to run-off. As a result, our net interest margin increased seven basis points during the fourth quarter to 3.56%.
“We are very excited about our pending merger of equals with BBCN Bancorp and we look forward to the opportunity to better serve our markets as part of the premier Korean-American bank in the United States,” said Mr. Yoo.

STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income before provision for losses on loans and loan commitments totaled $39.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, an increase of 5.2% from $37.5 million for both the fourth quarter of 2014 and the third quarter of 2015. Relative to the fourth quarter of 2014 and third quarter of 2015, net interest income was positively impacted by an increase in average total loans and investments securities.
Net interest margin was 3.56% for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to 3.49% for the third quarter of 2015, and 4.00% for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in net interest margin from the third to fourth quarter of 2015 was attributable to an increase in average loans and the deployment of lower yielding excess cash.
Loan yields were 4.80% for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to 4.76% for the third quarter of 2015, and 5.09% for the fourth quarter of 2014.
The total cost of deposits was 0.61% for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to 0.62% for the third quarter of 2015, and 0.58% for the fourth quarter of 2014. Compared to the third quarter of 2015, the decrease in the cost of deposits for the fourth quarter of 2015 was primarily due to the run-off of higher cost other time deposits.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income was $9.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $9.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $9.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Company recognized $2.9 million in net gain on sales of loans during the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. Net gain on sale of loans in the fourth quarter of 2015 consisted of $2.0 million in gains on sales of SBA loans, $898,000 in net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans, and $62,000 in gains from the sale of non-performing loans. The decline in net gain on sale of loans for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to the previous quarter, was primarily due to a decline in sale of residential mortgage loans, while the decline from the fourth quarter of 2014 was due to a reduction in SBA loan sales in addition to a decline in average premium rates.
Other non-interest income totaled $3.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $3.3 million for both the third quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in other non-interest income from the third to fourth quarter of 2015 was primarily due to an increase in loan servicing and other miscellaneous loan related income.
Non-Interest Expense
Total non-interest expense was $26.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with $25.8 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $23.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in non-interest expense from the prior quarter was primarily due to $994,000 in merger-related costs related to the planned merger of equals with BBCN, consisting mostly of financial advisor fees and legal expenses. Merger-related costs also contributed to an approximate 1.60% increase in tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2015, as these expenses were not tax deductible.
Total salaries and employee benefits expense was $13.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $13.6 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $12.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in salaries and employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the fourth quarter of 2014 was due to an overall increase in total employees, primarily to support the expansion of the residential mortgage lending business.
The Company’s operating efficiency ratio was 54.3% for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with 54.8% for the third quarter of 2015, and 49.5% for the fourth quarter of 2014.
BALANCE SHEET
During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company was able to reduce its cash and cash equivalents balance from $488.3 million at September 30, 2015, to $118.2 million at December 31, 2015. Excess cash was deployed in the fourth quarter of 2015 through the purchase of investment securities and funding loan growth. Higher cost time deposits and brokered money market accounts were also run-off during the fourth quarter of 2015, which helped to reduce cash equivalents to levels at year end.
Total loans receivable (net of deferred fees and costs) were $3.82 billion at December 31, 2015, compared to $3.63 billion at September 30, 2015. The increase in loans during the fourth quarter of 2015 was primarily attributable to growth in the real estate secured portfolio.

Originations for the fourth quarter of 2015 totaled $502.9 million, compared to $416.2 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $327.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in loan origination for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to the previous quarter, was due to an increase in real estate secured and SBA loan originations.
Total SBA loans held-for-sale at the end of the fourth quarter of 2015 were $5.5 million, compared to $2.2 million at the end of the previous quarter. The decision to retain or sell SBA loans is made on a quarter-to-quarter basis, depending on prevailing pricing in the secondary market and the Company’s liquidity needs. Residential mortgage loans held-for-sale at the end of the fourth quarter of 2015 were $19.7 million, compared to $9.6 million at the end of the third quarter of 2015.
Total deposits were $3.84 billion at December 31, 2015, compared with $3.94 billion at September 30, 2015. The decrease in total deposits was attributable to the strategic run-off of higher cost time deposits and a reduction in brokered money market deposits.

As a result, the Company determined that no provision for losses on loans and loan commitments was required for the fourth quarter of 2015 in spite of the loan growth experienced during the quarter.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $52.4 million, or 1.37% of gross loans (excluding loans held-for-sale), at December 31, 2015, compared to $50.1 million, or 1.38% of gross loans (excluding loans held-for-sale), at September 30, 2015.
