The complete, corrected release follows: RBB Bancorp Reports Third Quarter Earnings for 2018Conference Call and Webcast Scheduled for Tuesday, October 23, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time/2:00 p.m. Eastern Time- Net income was $8.3 million, or $0.48 diluted earnings per share- Total loans, including loans held for sale of $378.9 million, increased by $194.3 million, or 49.2% annualized growth, from the end of the prior quarter- Total deposits increased by $140.6 million, or 39.1% annualized growth, from the end of the prior quarter- RBB's acquisition of First American International Corp. ("FAIC") was completed on October 15, 2018LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- RBB Bancorp (NASDAQ:RBB) and its subsidiaries, Royal Business Bank ("the Bank") and RBB Asset Management Company ("RAM"), collectively referred to herein as "the Company", announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The Company reported net income of $8.3 million, or $0.48 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to net income of $9.4 million, or $0.54 diluted earnings per share, and $6.6 million, or $0.42 diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. "We had a very strong quarter of business development activity, generating exceptional loan growth driven by continued momentum in mortgage and commercial real estate originations and a return to our previous level of SBA loan production," said Mr. Alan Thian, Chairman, President and CEO. "We recorded a lower gain on loan sales than expected as the usual buyers for our residential mortgage loan production had less capacity for purchases in the third quarter. We anticipate selling more of our loans held-for-sale into traditional secondary market channels, which we currently believe should result in higher gain-on-sale income during the fourth quarter. Our loan pipeline remains strong, although we expect our loan growth to be more heavily weighted towards our commercial and commercial real estate portfolios as we resume selling more of our residential mortgage production. "On October 15, 2018, we closed the acquisition of First American International Corp. adding over $800 million in assets and eight branches in the New York market. We are pleased to have FAIC directors Raymond Yu and Alfonso Lau join our Board. We look forward to capitalizing on the synergies projected for this transaction and enhancing the value of our franchise as we grow our presence in the New York area," said Mr. Thian. Key Performance Ratios Net income of $8.3 million for the third quarter of 2018 produced an annualized return on average assets of 1.73%, an annualized return on average tangible common equity of 12.70%, and an annualized return on average equity of 11.34%. This compares to an annualized return on average assets of 2.18%, an annualized return on average tangible common equity of 15.13%, and an annualized return on average equity of 13.45% for the second quarter of 2018. The efficiency ratio for the third quarter of 2018 was 41.76%, compared to 39.72% for the prior quarter. Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income, before provision for loan losses, was $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2018, compared to $17.8 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to a $163.6 million increase in average earning assets, partially offset by a decrease of 26 basis points in the net interest margin. Accretion of purchase discounts contributed $208,000 to net interest income in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $921,000 in the second quarter of 2018. The decrease in accretion income was due to decreased loan payoff activity in our purchased loan pools. Compared to the third quarter of 2017, net interest income, before provision for loan losses, increased from $14.7 million. The increase was primarily attributable to a $305.8 million increase in average earning assets, combined with a 20 basis point increase in the net interest margin. Net interest margin was 4.11% for the third quarter of 2018, a decrease from 4.37% in the second quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to a 7 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets resulting from lower loan discount accretion and lower yields on loans, together with a higher cost of deposits. Loan discount accretion contributed 5 basis points to the net interest margin in the third quarter of 2018, compared to 23 basis points in the second quarter of 2018. Noninterest Income Noninterest income was $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2018, a decrease of $688,000 from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2018. In the third quarter, gain on loan sales decreased by $960,000. The Company sold $15.1 million in mortgage loans for a net gain of $308,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to $52.9 million in mortgage loan sales for a net gain of $1.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in mortgage loan sales is believed to be temporary as we currently expect to sell a greater volume of mortgages in the fourth quarter. The Company originated $113.1 million in mortgage loans for sale for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared with $105.8 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The Company sold $23.8 million in SBA loans for a net gain of $817,000 during the third quarter of 2018, compared to $18.2 million in SBA loans sold for a net gain of $885,000 during the second quarter of 2018. SBA loan originations for the third quarter were $20.0 million, compared to $11.1 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase in SBA loan originations was attributable to the hiring of new SBA business development officers. Compared to the third quarter of 2017, noninterest income decreased by $1.7 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.5 million decline in gain on loan sales, and a decline of $177,000 in loan servicing fees. The decrease in loan servicing fees is due to the prepayment of SBA loans. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2018 was $8.7 million, compared to $8.2 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to a $207,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense and an $180,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expenses. Compared to the third quarter of 2017, noninterest expense increased from $7.2 million to $8.7 million. The $1.5 million increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $738,000, occupancy and equipment expenses of $309,000, and other expenses of $169,000. The increase in salary expense is attributable to additional staff for expansion. The increase in occupancy expense is mainly due to rent at our Irvine location and temporary space for units pending the completion of our new headquarters office. The increase in other expenses is attributable to merger expenses of $348,000 and provision for unfunded commitments of $66,000. Income Taxes The effective tax rate was 19.7% (including the impact of a deduction for stock options exercised in the amount of $991,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2018, 19.5% (including the impact of a deduction for stock options exercised in the amount of $1.1 million) for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and 37.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Loan Portfolio Loans held for investment, net of deferred fees and discounts, totaled $1.4 billion as of September 30, 2018, an increase of $97.1 million, or 30.0% annualized growth, from $1.3 billion at June 30, 2018, and an increase of $184.7 million, or 15.4%, from $1.2 billion at September 30, 2017. The increase in loans held for investment from the end of the prior quarter was primarily attributable to growth in the commercial real estate and residential real estate portfolios. Mortgage loans held for sale were $378.9 million as of September 30, 2018, an increase of $97.2 million from $281.8 million at June 30, 2018. Deposits Deposits were $1.6 billion at September 30, 2018, an increase of $140.6 million, or 39.1% annualized growth, from $1.4 billion at June 30, 2018, and an increase of $246.7 million, or 18.7%, from $1.3 billion at September 30, 2017. The increase in total deposits from the end of the prior quarter was attributable to growth in interest-bearing non-maturity deposits and certificates of deposit (including $107.9 million in brokered CDs), partially offset by decreases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Excluding brokered deposits, total deposits increased $32.6 million from June 30, 2018, or 9.1% annualized growth. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased to $287.3 million as of September 30, 2018, compared to $306.4 million at June 30, 2018. The decrease is due to one large customer moving noninterest-bearing deposits to money market deposits. Compared to September 30, 2017 noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $300,000 from $287.6 million. Asset Quality Nonperforming assets totaled $6.9 million, or 0.32% of total assets at September 30, 2018, an increase from $6.8 million, or 0.38%, of total assets at June 30, 2018. Nonperforming assets consist of Other Real Estate Owned (foreclosed properties), loans modified under troubled debt restructurings (TDR), non-accrual loans, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Loans held-for-investment 30 to 89 days past due increased to $1.4 million at September 30, 2018, from $1.1 million at June 30, 2018. There was one charge-off for $175,000 during the third quarter of 2018. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2018, which was primarily attributable to the growth in total average loans during the quarter. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $700,000 during the second quarter of 2018 and $700,000 during the third quarter of 2017. The allowance for loan losses totaled $16.2 million, or 1.17% of total loans held for investment, at September 30, 2018, compared with $14.7 million, or 1.14%, of total loans at June 30, 2018.
