SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BANCORP REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2024 - Form 425
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BANCORP REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2024
San Diego, Calif., July 29, 2024 - Southern California Bancorp ("us," "we," "our," or the "Company") (NASDAQ: BCAL), the holding company for Bank of Southern California, N.A. (the "Bank") announces its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of 2024.
The Company reported net income of $190 thousand for the second quarter of 2024, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.26 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2024, and $6.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2023.
"Our second quarter of 2024 financial results were impacted by the sale of other real estate owned ("OREO") properties that sold for $8.3 million, net of selling costs and taxes, resulting in an additional $4.8 million charge to OREO expense in the second quarter," said David Rainer, Chairman and CEO of the Company and the Bank. "However, we did see improvement in several important financial metrics during the second quarter, including our net interest margin, which increased to 3.94% from 3.80% in the first quarter, as the yield on total interest-earning assets of 5.97% increased 18 basis points and the yield on average total loans increased by 19 basis points to 6.21%. I'm also pleased to report that in the second quarter our cost of funds increased only modestly by 4 basis points to 2.21%, after increasing by 22 and 33 basis points in the prior two quarters, respectively.
"As we announced earlier this month, on July 17, 2024, at their respective shareholder meetings, shareholders of Southern California Bancorp and California BanCorp approved the merger of the two companies, and we expect the transaction to close on July 31, 2024. We are excited about the future and building what we believe will be the premier commercial banking franchise headquartered in the state of California."

Second Quarter Operating Results
Net Income
Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $190 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with net income of $4.9 million, or $0.26 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2024. Our second quarter results were negatively impacted by $3.4 million of after-tax loss on the sale of other real estate owned, or $0.18 per diluted share, and $412 thousand of after-tax merger expenses, or $0.02 per diluted share. Excluding merger related expenses in connection with the planned merger with California BanCorp and California Bank of Commerce, the Company would have reported net income (non-GAAP1) of $602 thousand, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Pre-tax, pre-provision income (non-GAAP1) for the second quarter was $3.2 million, a decrease of $3.8 million or 54.2% from the prior quarter.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $21.0 million, compared with $20.5 million in the prior quarter. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a $585 thousand increase in total interest and dividend income, offset by a $72 thousand increase in total interest expense in the second quarter of 2024 as compared to the prior quarter. During the second quarter of 2024, loan interest income increased $473 thousand, total debt securities income increased $16 thousand, and interest and dividend income from other financial institutions decreased $96 thousand. The increase in interest income was due to a number of factors, including a higher average yield across most interest-earning asset categories and changes in the interest-earning asset mix, partially offset by lower average balances of loans and debt securities. Additionally, the previous quarter included the reversal of a nonaccrual loan's interest income of $168 thousand for which there was no similar activity in the current quarter. Average total interest-earning assets decreased $26.1 million, the result of a $26.4 million decrease in average total loans, a $6.6 million decrease in average deposits in other financial institutions, and a $3.0 million decrease in average total debt securities, partially offset by a $9.3 million increase in average Fed funds sold/resale agreements and a $679 thousand increase in average restricted stock investments and other bank stock. The increase in interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to a $393 thousand increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits, the result of a $10.3 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, coupled with a 9 basis point increase in average interest-bearing deposit costs, partially offset by a $321 thousand decrease in interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings, the result of a $23.2 million decrease in average FHLB borrowings in the second quarter of 2024.
Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2024 was 3.94%, compared with 3.80% in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily related to an 18 basis point increase in the total interest-earning assets yield, partially offset by a 4 basis point increase in the cost of funds. The yield on total average earning assets in the second quarter of 2024 was 5.97%, compared with 5.79% in the prior quarter. The yield on average total loans in the second quarter of 2024 was 6.21%, an increase of 19 basis points from 6.02% in the prior quarter. The yield on average total loans in the prior quarter included the reversal of nonaccrual loan interest, which decreased the overall loan yield by 4 basis points in the first quarter of 2024. There was no significant reversal of interest income in the second quarter of 2024.
Cost of funds for the second quarter of 2024 was 2.21%, an increase of 4 basis points from 2.17% in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily driven by a 9 basis point increase in the cost of average interest-bearing deposits, an increase in average interest-bearing deposits, and a decrease in average noninterest-bearing deposits. Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased $3.3 million to $658.0 million and represented 34.1% of total average deposits for the second quarter of 2024, compared with $661.3 million and 34.3%, respectively, in the prior quarter; average interest-bearing deposits increased $10.3 million to $1.27 billion during the second quarter of 2024. The total cost of deposits in the second quarter of 2024 was 2.12%, an increase of 7 basis points from 2.05% in the prior quarter. The cost of total interest-bearing deposits increased due primarily to repricing deposits in the higher interest rate environment and peer bank deposit competition.
| 2 |
Average total borrowings decreased $23.2 million to $45.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to a decrease of $23.2 million in average FHLB borrowings during the second quarter of 2024. The average cost of total borrowings was 5.84% for the second quarter of 2024, up from 5.75% in the prior quarter.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to a reversal of credit losses of $331 thousand in the prior quarter. The increase was largely related to a charge-off on a loan for a property with the same guarantor as the OREO sold in the second quarter and the downgrade of a construction loan to substandard. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2024 included a $97 thousand reversal of credit provision for unfunded loan commitments primarily due to lower unfunded loan commitments. Total unfunded loan commitments decreased $16.9 million to $371.5 million at June 30, 2024, from $388.4 million at March 31, 2024. The provision for credit losses for the loans held for investment in the second quarter of 2024 was $3.0 million, an increase of $3.3 million from a reversal of credit losses for the loans held for investment of $314 thousand in the prior quarter. The increase was driven primarily by increases in net charge-offs, and substandard accruing loans, coupled with changes in the portfolio mix, and a change in the reasonable and supportable forecast, primarily related to the economic outlook for California, partially offset by decreases in special mention loans and loans held for investment. The Company's management continues to monitor macroeconomic variables related to increasing interest rates, inflation and the concerns of an economic downturn, and believes it has appropriately provisioned for the current environment.
Noninterest Income
The Company recorded noninterest income of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $244 thousand compared to $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2024. There was no gain on SBA 7A loan sales in the second quarter of 2024, compared to a gain on sale of $415 thousand on $6.3 million in SBA 7A loan sales in the prior quarter. Noninterest income was also negatively impacted by a $78 thousand decrease in servicing and related income on loans, which was primarily related to accelerated amortization of servicing assets. Other charges and fees increased $223 thousand in the second quarter of 2024 due primarily to higher income from equity investments.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $19.0 million, an increase of $4.0 million from total noninterest expense of $15.0 million in the prior quarter. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company sold other real estate owned and recognized a $4.8 million loss. There was no comparable transaction in the first quarter of 2024.
Salaries and employee benefits decreased $834 thousand during the quarter to $8.8 million. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was primarily the result of lower incentive accruals and payroll taxes, which are generally higher in the first quarter each year, offset by slightly higher compensation and stock-based compensation. Merger and related expenses in connection with the planned merger with California BanCorp and California Bank of Commerce decreased $58 thousand to $491 thousand.
Efficiency ratio (non-GAAP1) for the second quarter of 2024 was 85.7%, compared to 68.4% in the prior quarter. Excluding the loss on sale of OREO, the efficiency ratio (non-GAAP1) for the second quarter of 2024 would have been 64.1%. Excluding the merger and related expenses of $491 thousand, the efficiency ratio (non-GAAP1) for the second quarter of 2024 would have been 83.5%.
Income Tax
In the second quarter of 2024, the Company's income tax expense was $88 thousand, compared with $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024. The effective rate was 31.7% for the second quarter of 2024 and 32.0% for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to the impact of the vesting and exercise of equity awards combined with changes in the Company's stock price over time, and other deferred tax related adjustments.

Assets
Total assets at June 30, 2024 were $2.29 billion, an increase of $4.0 million or 0.2% from March 31, 2024. The increase in total assets from the prior quarter was primarily related to an $18.2 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, offset by a $13.1 million decrease in other real estate owned ("OREO"), net, a $1.5 million decrease in total loans, including loans held for sale, and a $3.3 million decrease in debt securities available-for-sale.

Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and Liquidity
The Company was able to repay a portion of its higher cost FHLB borrowings with the liquidity primarily derived from the increase in total deposits during the second quarter of 2024. At June 30, 2024, the Company had overnight FHLB borrowings of $25.0 million, a $2.0 million decrease from March 31, 2024.

The decrease in non-performing assets in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to the sale of $13.1 million of other real estate owned related to the three-property multifamily OREO in Santa Monica, California, that was downgraded in the third quarter of 2023, partially charged off in the fourth quarter of 2023, foreclosed on in the first quarter of 2024 and sold in the second quarter of 2024. This decrease also included a partial charge-off of $1.5 million for a substandard nonaccrual three-year bridge loan collateralized by an 8-unit multifamily apartment building located in Los Angeles, California. The property has one 10% owner and guarantor in common with the three-property multifamily OREO discussed above. Based on the Company's internal analysis, which included a review of an updated appraisal, the estimated net collateral value was $4.7 million, which was $1.5 million lower than the subject loan's net carrying value resulting in a partial charge-off in the second quarter of 2024. A court appointed receiver was put in place at the end of March 2024 and the Company foreclosed on the collateral property in July of 2024.
Total non-performing loans decreased to $4.7 million, or 0.25% of total loans held for investment at June 30, 2024, compared with $6.2 million, or 0.33% of total loans at March 31, 2024. The decrease from March 31, 2024, was due primarily to the aforementioned partial charge-off of $1.5 million for the substandard nonaccrual three-year bridge multifamily loan in the second quarter of 2024.
Special mention loans decreased by $11.7 million during the second quarter of 2024 to $27.9 million at June 30, 2024, due mostly to a $10.4 million decrease in special mention construction and land development loans, a $3.9 million decrease in special mention 1-4 family residential loans, partially offset by a $437 thousand increase in special mention commercial real estate loans, and $2.2 million increase in special mention commercial and industrial loans. Substandard loans increased by $11.8 million during the second quarter of 2024 to $23.1 million at June 30, 2024, due primarily to one construction loan and one 1-4 family residential loan from one relationship totaling $13.3 million that were downgraded to substandard accruing during the second quarter of 2024, partially offset by a partial charge-off of the nonaccrual multifamily loan of $1.5 million.
The Company had no loans over 90 days past due that were accruing interest at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024.
There were no loan delinquencies (30-89 days past due, excluding nonaccrual loans) at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024.
The allowance for credit losses, which is comprised of the allowance for loan losses ("ALL") and reserve for unfunded loan commitments, totaled $24.6 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $23.2 million at March 31, 2024. The $1.4 million increase in the allowance included a $3.0 million provision for credit losses for the loan portfolio, offset by a $1.5 million partial loan charge-off discussed above, and a $97 thousand reversal of credit provision for unfunded loan commitments for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
The ALL was $23.8 million, or 1.27% of total loans held for investment at June 30, 2024, compared with $22.3 million, or 1.18% at March 31, 2024.
Capital
Tangible book value (non-GAAP1) per common share at June 30, 2024, was $13.71, compared with $13.69 at March 31, 2024. In the second quarter of 2024, tangible book value was primarily impacted by net income, stock-based compensation expense, and an increase in net of tax unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. Other comprehensive losses related to unrealized losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale debt securities increased by $348 thousand to $6.5 million at June 30, 2024, from $6.1 million at March 31, 2024. The increase in the unrealized losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale debt securities was primarily attributable to factors other than credit related, including increases in market interest rates driven by the Federal Reserve's policy to fight inflation, and general volatility in credit market conditions. Tangible common equity (non-GAAP1) as a percent of total tangible assets (non-GAAP1) at June 30, 2024, increased to 11.28% from 11.27% in the prior quarter, and unrealized losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale debt securities as a percent of tangible common equity (non-GAAP1) at June 30, 2024 increased to 2.6% from 2.4% in the prior quarter.
The Bank's leverage capital ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 12.16% and 14.34%, respectively, at June 30, 2024. The Bank elected the three-year phase-in period under the regulatory capital rules, which allow a phase-in of the Day 1 Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") transition adjustment to the regulatory capital at 25% per year over a three-year transition period.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation
(Unaudited)
The following tables present a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures for: (1) adjusted net income, (2) efficiency ratio, (3) adjusted efficiency ratio, (4) pre-tax pre-provision income, (5) adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income, (6) average tangible common equity, (7) adjusted return on average assets, (8) adjusted return on average equity, (9) return on average tangible common equity, (10) adjusted return on average tangible common equity, (11) tangible common equity, (12) tangible assets, (13) tangible common equity to tangible asset ratio, and (14) tangible book value per share. We believe the presentation of certain non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to assess our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations and to assist investors in evaluating our financial results relative to our peers. These non-GAAP financial measures complement our GAAP reporting and are presented below to provide investors and others with information that we use to manage the business each period. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and should not be considered a substitute of the GAAP measures.
