Preferred Bank (NASDAQ: PFBC), one of the larger
independent California banks, today reported results for the
quarter ended September 30, 2024. Preferred Bank (“the Bank”)
reported net income of $33.4 million or $2.46 per diluted share for
the third quarter of 2024. This represents a slight decrease in net
income of $209,000 from the prior quarter and down by $4.8 million
from the same quarter last year. The decrease in net income from
the prior year was due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.1
million due to higher deposit costs as well as an increase in
noninterest expense of $3.1 million. These were partially offset by
lower provision for credit losses and an increase in noninterest
income. The decrease from the prior quarter was due to an increase
in noninterest expense of $2.4 million, an increase in the
provision for credit losses of $700,000 partially offset by an
increase in net interest income of $2.7 million. Preferred Bank
continues to deliver top-of-peer group profitability metrics and
long term shareholder returns.
Highlights for the Quarter:
- Return on average
assets was 1.95%
- Return on beginning
equity of 18.37%
- Net interest margin
(NIM) expanded to 4.10%
- Total loans
increased by $143 million or 2.6% for the quarter
- Efficiency ratio was
30.6%
Li Yu, Chairman and CEO, commented, “I am pleased to report our
third quarter 2024 net income was $33.4 million or $2.46 a share.
Highlights of the quarter include the successful reduction of $21.2
million in non-performing loans, with no charge-offs. Interest
recovery related to this was $800,000. Criticized loans, however,
have increased but we believe it may be temporary in nature.
Separately, the OREO property is currently in escrow, scheduled to
close later this month. The valuation allowance we recorded of $1.7
million is included in the quarter’s non-interest expense.
Loan demand was strong this quarter. We had a net increase of
$143 million, or 2.6% on a linked quarter basis. The September’s
rate cut seems to have spurred borrower interest in general.
Deposits for the quarter had a very small decrease, as we have been
careful in monitoring our deposit costs.
At September 30, 2024, Preferred Bank’s loan portfolio was 26%
fixed rate loans and 74% floating rate loans with floor rates for
most of them. We believe it is well-balanced with the sensitivity
of our deposits. However, the time certificates of deposits do have
a cost adjustment pattern of slower reduction in the beginning but
increasing gradually.”
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin.
Net interest income before provision for credit losses was $68.8
million for the third quarter of 2024. This was a decrease from the
$73.0 million recorded in the same quarter last year and an
increase over the $66.1 million posted in the second quarter of
2024. A higher cost of deposits was to blame for the decrease in
net interest income versus the prior year and a curing of a
nonaccrual loan in the third quarter of 2024 was the reason for the
increase in net interest income over the second quarter of 2024. A
loan that was placed into nonaccrual status in the second quarter
of 2024 was paid down significantly and the interest was brought
current in the third quarter of 2024. This interest recovery of
$800,000 helped to increase the Bank’s net interest margin to 4.10%
for the quarter from 3.96% in the prior quarter. This compares to a
margin of 4.39% one year ago. Also very importantly, the Bank’s
total interest expense decreased for the first time since the first
quarter of 2022. This was the result of the Bank’s efforts to
replace higher cost brokered MMDA accounts with traditional
brokered CD’s which carry a lower coupon. This is why, during this
quarter, there is a fairly sizeable decrease in money market
accounts and a corresponding increase in certificates of
deposit.
Noninterest Income. For the third quarter of
2024, noninterest income was $3.5 million compared with $3.0
million for the same quarter last year and compared to $3.4 million
for the second quarter of 2024. The increase over the prior quarter
was primarily due to letter of credit (LC) fees which increased by
$210,000 and other income partially offset by a decrease in gains
on sales of SBA loans of $263,000. In comparing to the same quarter
last year; LC fee income was up by $547,000 partially offset by a
decrease in service charges of $192,000.
Noninterest Expense. Total
noninterest expense was $22.1 million for the third quarter of 2024
compared to $19.7 million for the second quarter of 2024 and
compared to the $19.0 million recorded in the same period last
year. The primary reason for the increase from the prior year and
over the prior quarter was the $1.7 million valuation allowance
recorded this quarter on the Bank’s other real estate owned (OREO)
property. In comparing to the prior quarter; personnel expense
increased by $581,000 and occupancy expense increased by $167,000.
This was partially offset by a decrease in promotion expense of
$162,000. In comparing to same quarter last year; personnel expense
was up by $517,000, occupancy expense was up by $320,000 and
professional services was up by $393,000. The increase in
professional services expense was due to increased legal costs
which were associated with a number of nonperforming loans. For the
quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Bank’s efficiency ratio was
30.6%, higher than the 28.3% posted last quarter and higher than
the 25.04% posted this quarter last year.
Income Taxes. The Bank recorded a provision for
income taxes of $13.6 million for the third quarter of 2024. This
represents an effective tax rate (“ETR”) of 29.0% which is
identical to the ETR for last quarter and up from the 28.5% ETR
recorded in the same period last year. The Bank’s ETR will
fluctuate slightly from quarter to quarter within a fairly small
range due to the timing of taxable events throughout the year.
Balance Sheet Summary
Total gross loans at September 30, 2024 were $5.57 billion, an
increase of $298.1 million from the total of $5.27 billion as of
December 31, 2023. Total deposits decreased during the quarter by
$11 million but still increased year-to-date to $5.87 billion, up
$158.4 million from the $5.71 billion as of December 31, 2023.
Total assets were $6.87 billion, an increase of $213.3 million over
the total of $6.66 billion as of December 31, 2023.
Asset Quality
Non-accrual loans as of September 30, 2024, was $19.4 million, a
decrease of $21.2 million from $40.6 million on June 30, 2024.
There were no charge-offs related to the reduction. Interest
recoveries were $800,000 for this quarter
The increase in total criticized loans of $161.2 for the quarter
was largely due to the downgrade of a relationship with seven real
estate related loans. These seven loans totaling $182.1 were
secured by retail or multifamily properties that have late payment
irregularities. At September 30, 2024, four of the seven loans
totaling $86.5 million have been brought current and are expected
to be out of criticized status in the fourth quarter. The three
loans that have not been brought to current have a combined
weighted average LTV of 64% and DCR of 0.98. All these loans have
adequate guarantor support. Combined amount outstanding for these
three loans is $95.6 million.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2024
was $3.2 million compared to $2.5 million last quarter and compared
to $3.5 million in the same quarter last year. The Bank’s allowance
coverage ratio increased to 1.36% of loans as compared to 1.34% in
the prior quarter.
Capitalization
As of September 30, 2024, the Bank’s leverage ratio was 11.28%,
the common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 11.66% and the total
capital ratio stood at 15.06%. As of December 31, 2023, the Bank’s
leverage ratio was 10.85%, the common equity tier 1 ratio was
