SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Bridge Capital Holdings BBNK, whose subsidiary is Bridge Bank, National Association, announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

The Company reported net income of $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $273,000, or 7%, from $4.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and representing an increase of $198,000, or 5%, from net income of $3.7 million for the same period one year ago.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company reported earnings per diluted share of $0.25, compared with $0.27 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and $0.24 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company's return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.86% and 8.28%, respectively, and compared to 0.94% and 9.00%, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 and 0.97% and 9.09%, respectively, for the same period in 2014.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company incurred merger related expenses associated with its pending acquisition by Western Alliance Bancorporation of $1.2 million. Excluding merger related expenses, adjusted net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $4.8 million and adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.31. The Company's adjusted returns on average assets and average equity for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 were 1.06% and 10.14%, respectively.

"Although the first quarter is typically a seasonally slow period for the Bank, we continued to experience very strong balance sheet growth driven by healthy economic activity in our core markets and our effective marketing and new business development efforts," said Daniel P. Myers, president and chief executive officer of Bridge Bank, N.A. and Bridge Capital Holdings. "Our commercial loan portfolio increased at a 29% annualized rate during the first quarter, and we had meaningful contributions from all of our regional offices and lending groups, including technology, corporate banking, and our energy and infrastructure group. We also had a strong improvement in our net interest margin after the unusually low margin that we experienced last quarter. The combination of our strong balance sheet growth and higher net interest margin generated significant improvement in our core earnings power, excluding merger-related expenses.

"We are working diligently towards the completion of our proposed merger with Western Alliance Bancorp. We believe that Western Alliance is an excellent merger partner that will provide additional resources to continue growing the Bridge Bank brand and enhancing our position as a premier business bank serving the innovation and technology sectors," said Mr. Myers.

First Quarter Highlights

Average loan balances increased by $105.7 million, or 9%, to $1.33 billion for the first quarter of 2015, compared to $1.22 billion for the quarter ending December 31, 2014.
  • Total assets grew to $1.88 billion at March 31, 2015, with loans comprising 75% of the average earning asset mix. Total deposits were $1.65 billion at March 31, 2015, which included demand deposits of $1.15 billion.
  • Allowance for credit losses represented 1.66% of total gross loans and 164.76% of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2015, compared to 1.70% of total gross loans and 284.03% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2014. There was no provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2015. Net recoveries were $260,000 for the period ended March 31, 2015, compared to net charge-offs of $134,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
  • Nonperforming assets increased by $5.8 million to $13.7 million, or 0.73% of total assets, at March 31, 2015, compared to $7.9 million, or 0.43% of total assets, at December 31, 2014.
  • Total revenue of $24.2 million for the first quarter of 2015 represented an increase of $2.5 million, or 11%, from the prior quarter. Net interest income of $20.9 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $18.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. Non-interest income of $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.
  • Net interest margin increased to 4.79% for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to 4.39% for the fourth quarter of 2014.
  • Capital ratios remained strong and continued to support the Company's growth. Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 12.78%, Tier I Capital Ratio was 11.58%, and Tier I Leverage Ratio was 11.14% at March 31, 2015.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income of $20.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 represented an increase of $2.0 million, or 11%, compared to $18.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and an increase of $2.9 million, or 16%, compared to $18.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase in net interest income from the prior quarter was primarily attributable to an increase in average earning assets as a result of loan growth, and a higher level of loan related fees. The increase in net interest income from the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to an increase in average earning assets as a result of loan growth, partially offset by a slightly lower level of loan related fees. Loan fee amortization for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $2.7 million, compared to $2.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Total loan yields for the quarters ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014 were 5.98%, 5.69%, and 6.38%, respectively. The weighted average contractual rate on loans, excluding fees, increased to 5.15% for the first quarter of 2015 compared to 4.97% the fourth quarter of 2014 and 5.34% for the same period one year ago. Loan fees comprised 83 basis points of the total loan yield for the first quarter of 2015, compared to 72 basis points and 104 basis points for the fourth and first quarters of 2014, respectively.

The Company's net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was 4.79%, compared to 4.39% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and 4.91% for the same period one year earlier. The increase in net interest margin compared to the prior quarter ended December 30, 2014 was primarily due to a higher level of loan related fees, combined with a more favorable balance sheet mix. The decrease in net interest margin compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to a lower level of loan related fees, offset in part by an increase in average earning assets.

The impact on the net interest margin from expansion of contractual rates experienced in the loan portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the prior quarter was 30 basis points. Compared to the same period one year earlier, the impact from compression of contractual rates experienced in the loan portfolio was 3 basis points.

The impact on the net interest margin from increased loan fees for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the prior quarter was 10 basis points. Compared to the same period one year earlier, the impact on the net interest margin from decreased loan fees was 14 basis points.

The Company's loan-to-deposit ratio, a measure of leverage, averaged 83.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to an average of 79.0% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and an average of 81.1% for the same period of 2014.

Non-Interest Income

The Company's non-interest income for the quarters ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014 was $3.3 million, $2.9 million, and $2.7 million, respectively.

The increases in non-interest income of $420,000 and $525,000 million during the first quarter of 2015 compared to the fourth quarter of 2014 and the first quarter of 2014, respectively, was primarily attributed to an increase in gains on sales of securities. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded gains on sales of securities of $306,000, compared to gains on sales of securities of $5,000 for the period ended December 31, 2014. There were no gains on sales of securities for the period ended March 31, 2014. The company recognized international fee income during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 of $841,000, compared to $789,000 in the prior quarter, and $761,000 during the same period last year. Service charges on deposits were $1.0 million during the first quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014, compared to $916,000 during the same period one year earlier. Visa interchange/fee income increased to $401,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, from $386,000 for the prior quarter, and $299,000 for the same period one year earlier. Additionally, $195,000 in gains on sale of SBA loans was recognized during the first quarter of 2015, compared to $165,000 during the prior quarter and $213,000 for the same period during the prior year. Finally, the Company recognized $189,000 in SBA loan servicing income during the current quarter, compared to $176,000 during the prior quarter and $142,000 for the same period in 2014.

Net interest income and non-interest income comprised total revenue of $24.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $21.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and $20.8 million for the same period one year earlier.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $17.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, and included $1.2 million of merger related expense, compared to $14.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, and $14.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Overall, the trend in non-interest expense (excluding merger related costs) continues to reflect the Company's investments in new initiatives and personnel to support growth.

Salary and benefits expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $10.6 million, compared to $9.5 million and $9.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively. The increase in salary and benefits expense for the first quarter of 2015 compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to lower incentive compensation accruals during the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in salary and benefits expense from the current quarter compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to an increase in headcount to support growth and new initiatives, combined with annual salary increases necessary to remain competitive in the Company's core markets. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company employed 262 and 260 full-time equivalents (FTE), respectively, compared to 235 FTE at March 31, 2014.

Marketing expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $567,000, compared to $670,000 and $619,000 for the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively. Over the past several years, the Company increased marketing investments to raise the level of its brand visibility, and the rising trend of these expenses has leveled off in the current quarter. To leverage the increased brand visibility, the Company will continue to fund marketing and sales initiatives to accelerate demand for its customized banking solutions.

"Other real estate owned" and loan-related charges were $384,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $309,000 and $194,000 for the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively. The increase in charges from prior quarter and prior year is primarily related to the ongoing resolution of the increased non-performing credit portfolio during the current quarter.

Regulatory assessments related to FDIC insurance for deposit balances totaled $333,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $250,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 and $351,000 for the same period one year ago. Regulatory assessments fluctuate depending on asset size and other factors, including credit quality.

The Company's efficiency ratio, the ratio of non-interest expense to revenues, was 71.61%, 66.66%, and 67.64% for the quarters ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company's adjusted efficiency ratio, net of merger related expenses, was 66.69%.

Balance Sheet

Bridge Capital Holdings reported total assets at March 31, 2015 of $1.88 billion, compared to $1.81 billion at December 31, 2014 and $1.62 billion on the same date one year ago. The increase in total assets of $68.1 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2014 was driven by increases in the loan portfolio and federal funds sold. The increase in total assets of $265.8 million, or 16%, from March 31, 2014 was driven by increases in the loan portfolio and investment securities.

The Company reported total gross loans outstanding at March 31, 2015 of $1.36 billion, which represented an increase of $46.8 million, or 4%, over $1.31 billion at December 31, 2014, and an increase of $213.4 million, or 19%, over $1.14 billion at March 31, 2014. The increase in total gross loans from December 31, 2014 was primarily in the commercial loan portfolio, slightly offset by reductions in factoring and asset-based loans. The increase in loans from March 31, 2014 was broad-based throughout the portfolio, with the most significant growth reflected in the commercial lending portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in factoring and asset-based loans.

The Company's total deposits were $1.66 billion as of March 31, 2015, which represented an increase of $106.3 million, or 7%, compared to $1.55 billion at December 31, 2014 and an increase of $239.9 million, or 17%, compared to $1.42 billion at March 31, 2014. The increase in deposits from December 31, 2014 was generally reflected in all product types with a modest reduction in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts. The increase in deposits from March 31, 2014 was also broad-based with a slight reduction in time deposits.

Demand deposits represented 69.3% of total deposits at March 31, 2015, compared to 68.9% at December 31, 2014 and 69.9% for the same period one year ago. Core deposits represented 97.8%, 97.9%, and 97.0% of total deposits at March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively.

Credit Quality

Nonperforming assets were $13.7 million, or 0.73% of total assets, as of March 31, 2015, compared to $7.9 million, or 0.43% of total assets, as of December 31, 2014, and $11.9 million, or 0.73% of total assets, at March 31, 2014. The nonperforming assets at March 31, 2015 consisted of loans on nonaccrual or 90 days or more past due totaling $13.7 million and OREO valued at $22,000.

Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2015 were comprised of loans with legal contractual balances totaling approximately $16.3 million reduced by $422,000 received in non-accrual interest and by impairment charges of $2.2 million which have been charged against the allowance for credit losses.

Nonperforming loans were $13.7 million, or 1.01% of total gross loans, as of March 31, 2015, compared to $7.9 million, or 0.60% of total gross loans, as of December 31, 2014, and $11.8 million, or 1.03% of total gross loans, at March 31, 2014. The increase in nonperforming loans was primarily attributable to one client relationship with both commercial and asset-based credits outstanding.

The carrying value of OREO was $22,000 as of March 31, 2015, compared to $23,000 as of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014.

GAAP RECONCILATIONS
 

For periods presented below, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. We calculate these figures by excluding merger related expenses in period results. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from these financial measures provides useful information to an understanding of the operating results of our core business. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these adjusted measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled adjusted measures reported by other companies.
