DENVER, Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CoBiz Financial Inc. (Nasdaq: COBZ), a financial services company with $2.5 billion in assets, announced a net loss of $4.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, as compared to a net loss of $8.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2008. The net loss available to common shareholders was $0.15 per diluted common share versus a net loss of $0.38 per diluted common share in the prior year quarter.
For the year ended December 31, 2009, the net loss from core operations was $41.8 million, or $1.56 per diluted common share, excluding noncash charges from goodwill impairment (see the accompanying reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP). Including these charges, the net loss was $83.0 million, or $2.98 per diluted share. For the year ended December 31, 2008, net income was $1.3 million or $0.05 per diluted common share.
Financial Performance - Fourth Quarter 2009
-- The net loss available to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $0.15 per diluted common share, a 35% improvement from the net loss from core operations (excluding goodwill charges) of $0.23 per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2009 (linked-quarter). (See the accompanying reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP). The current quarter results were also a 47% improvement over the net loss reported in the fourth quarter of 2008. -- Provision for loan and credit losses (Provision) decreased for the second consecutive quarter. The Provision for the fourth quarter decreased by $3.7 million from the third quarter of 2009 to $16.5 million from $20.2 million. The fourth quarter 2009 Provision was $6.8 million less than the fourth quarter of 2008 Provision of $23.4 million. -- During the fourth quarter, the Company charged-off, net of recoveries, $22.9 million. The resulting allowance for loan and credit losses (Allowance) was 4.23% of total loans. For the full year, net charge-offs were $73.5 million. For the year, the loan and credit loss provision was $105.7 million or 143.7% of year-to-date net charge-offs. -- Nonperforming assets ended the quarter at $104.5 million, or 4.24% of total assets, up from $98.2 million or 3.87% of total assets at September 30, 2009. -- The net interest margin decreased slightly to 4.36% for the fourth quarter of 2009, from 4.40% in the third quarter of 2009. The net interest margin increased 21 basis points (0.21%) from 4.15% in the fourth quarter of 2008. -- Loans outstanding as of December 31, 2009, decreased by $97.3 million on a linked-quarter basis to $1.78 billion. As a result, net interest income decreased by $0.6 million, from the third quarter 2009. However, for the full year, net interest income increased by $8.0 million, or 8.4% to $103.4 million over 2008 due to a strong net interest margin. -- Deposits and customer repurchase agreements (Customer Repo's) increased by $49.5 million on a linked-quarter basis. Deposits and Customer Repo's excluding wholesale brokered sources (Customer Funding) increased by $74.6 million on a linked-quarter basis, or 14.6% annualized. Year-over-year, Customer Funding increased by $392.4 million or 23.0%. -- Total noninterest-bearing demand accounts represented 27.6% of total deposits as of December 31, 2009, compared to 27.1% as of the prior quarter. -- The Company recognized a $1.6 million, pre-tax loss on securities, other assets and OREO as compared to $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2009. For the full year, the Company recognized $5.6 million of losses on securities, other assets and OREO.
"2009 was a tough year and one I wasn't sorry to see come to an end," said Chairman and CEO Steve Bangert. "However, I think it's important to take what we learned over the past year and make our Company stronger. Any company can do well in good times; it is a company's response to difficulty that differentiates it from its competitors.
"I am very proud of how our management team and employees responded to this demanding environment. During the past year, we addressed some of the larger challenges facing our company, clearing the way for positive momentum in the coming year. Within the past 18 months, we successfully raised capital on three separate occasions. We faced our credit issues head-on, provisioning $105.7 million and building our Allowance coverage to one of the highest in our peer group. We made significant investments in a newly formed Special Assets group, and have decreased our Land and Construction concentrations. More importantly, at a time when earnings were under extreme pressure, we continued to invest in the franchise by recruiting three key positions: Director of Wealth Management, as well as Colorado and Arizona Bank Market Presidents, which will allow us to focus on growing market share.
"While 2010 will not be without challenges, I am hopeful for the promises it holds and the potential opportunities. We exit 2009 with a stronger capital base, record liquidity and a deeper management team. As a result of our challenges, we have become more efficient, disciplined and focused, and are well prepared to continue building the franchise."
Loans
Total loans ended the period just over $1.78 billion, a decrease of $97.3 million from September 30, 2009. Although we continue to actively market new relationships, we have seen a significant decrease in quality loan demand in our markets. Total credit extended this quarter increased from the prior quarter to $154.8 million, from $126.6 million. However, credit extensions were offset by a higher level of maturities and pay-downs, including gross charge-offs of $23.7 million during the fourth quarter.
Year-to-date, loans have decreased by $248.6 million, or 12.2%. Credit extended in 2009 totaled $624.6 million, including $237.8 million of loans to new credit relationships. Loan advances during the year were offset by greater levels of loan maturities and pay-downs, including gross charge-offs of $76.6 million for the year.
Overall, Commercial and Industrial (C&I) loans comprised $559.6 million, or 31.4% of the total portfolio as of December 31, 2009 compared to $649.0 million, or 31.9%, a year earlier. Commercial Real Estate accounted for 52.5% of total loans, with owner/occupied properties comprising a significant portion of this category. Land acquisition and development loans (A&D) decreased to $152.7 million or 8.6% of the total portfolio at the end of fourth quarter from $221.9 million, or 10.9%, a year ago. Construction loans, excluding A&D, accounted for $144.5 million or 8.1% of the portfolio at December 31, 2009, as compared to $192.1 million, or 9.5%, a year ago.
Investment Securities
The Company had investment securities with a carrying value totaling $529.5 million at December 31, 2009, an increase of $45.6 million from the prior quarter. The portfolio consists primarily of mortgage-backed securities, the overwhelming majority of which are backed by U.S. government agencies. These securities had a net book value of $386.4 million and a market value of $400.8 million at quarter end. The remaining MBS are non-agency, private-label securities with a net book value of $5.3 million and a market value of $2.4 million. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $56.7 million in agency debentures, of which $31.7 million were purchased during the fourth quarter. The fair value of the agency securities was $56.5 million at year-end. Investments also include $35.0 million of single-issuer trust preferred securities backed by 13 different financial institutions and $31.7 million of corporate debt securities issued primarily by six S&P 500 companies. All trust preferred securities in the Company's portfolio continue to pay dividends. The fair value of these securities was $67.4 million at December 31, 2009. The portfolio does not contain any collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) or securities backed by sub-prime mortgage loans.
The Company recognized a $0.1 million Other Than Temporary Impairment (OTTI) valuation loss during the fourth quarter of 2009. The valuation loss related to one private label mortgage-backed security (MBS), which was previously deemed to have an OTTI.
Deposits and Customer Repo Balances
Deposit and Customer Repo balances ended the period at $2.1 billion, an increase of $336.1 million from the same period in 2008, or 19.0%. On a linked-quarter basis, Deposit and Customer Repo balances increased by $49.5 million. Customer Funding (excluding brokered deposits from non-relationship sources) increased $74.6 million on a linked-quarter basis and $392.4 million from the prior year period. The strong growth in core deposits is the result of a consistent, focused marketing effort by our business development officers, as well as our current customers maintaining more liquidity on their balance sheets. While loan growth continues to be a challenge, the Bank is making considerable progress in building market share by attracting and building depository relationships.
Total noninterest-bearing demand accounts represented 27.6% of total deposits as of December 31, 2009, relatively level with the prior-year period.
The decrease in loan demand, coupled with strong deposit generation has contributed to a better liquidity position. As of December 31, 2009, total loans to Customer Funding decreased to 85.0% from 119.1% at the prior year end.
Allowance for Loan and Credit Losses and Credit Quality
Nonperforming assets (NPAs) increased by $6.3 million during the quarter to $104.5 million at December 31, 2009. Total nonperforming loans (NPLs) increased to $79.2 million as of December 31, 2009, from $75.7 million at September 30, 2009. NPLs to total loans increased to 4.44% at the end of the current quarter, from 4.03% as of the end of the prior linked-quarter. Other real estate owned acquired through foreclosure, and other foreclosed assets (OREO) was $25.3 million at year end 2009.
Of the total, 53% of NPAs, or $55.0 million, are within the Colorado portfolio and 47%, or $49.5 million, are in Arizona. Land A&D and Construction loans continue to exhibit the greatest weakness with 22.3% and 6.7%, respectively, of total loans in their category on nonaccrual status. Nonaccruing C&I and Real Estate loans remained manageable at 2.4% and 2.3%, respectively. Of the $25.3 million of OREO, $15.2 million, or 60%, was located in Colorado and $10.1 million, or 40%, was located in Arizona.
The fourth quarter loan and credit loss provision of $16.5 million represents a decrease of 18.1% or $3.7 million from the third quarter and 29.5% or $6.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company charged-off (net of recoveries) $22.9 million in loans during the fourth quarter of 2009 and $73.5 million for the full year of 2009. Overall, the Company provided $32.2 million more in provision for loan and credit losses than it has charged-off during the year. As a result, the Allowance increased to $75.3 million as of December 31, 2009, from $43.1 million as of December 31, 2008. The Company's Allowance to total loans held for investment increased to 4.23% as of December 31, 2009, from 2.12% as of December 31, 2008. The Allowance was over 97% of NPLs at December 31, 2009.
While the Land A&D portfolio represents only 8.6% of total loans, the Company estimates that approximately 61% of its current year Provision, and 59% of its gross charge-offs in 2009 related to Land A&D.
Shareholders' Equity and Regulatory Capital
Over the last 18 months, the Company successfully raised capital on three separate occasions:
-- In the third quarter of 2008, the Company raised $20.4 million through a private offering of subordinated debt that qualified as Tier 2 capital; -- In the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company qualified for a $64.5 million investment from the U.S. Treasury Department as part of the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008; and -- During the third quarter of 2009, the Company completed a successful common equity placement of $55.8 million, net of expenses.
As of December 31, 2009, total Shareholders' Equity was $230.5 million. The Company's total tangible shareholders' equity was $225.5 million. The tangible shareholders' equity to tangible assets ratio was 9.2% and the tangible common equity ratio was 6.7% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to 7.6% and 5.3%, respectively, at December 31, 2008 (see the accompanying Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP).
As of December 31, 2009, the Company was significantly in excess of what is considered "Well-Capitalized" with an expected Tier 1 Capital ratio of 13.81%, and Total Capital ratio of 16.13%. Under the risk-based capital guidelines, the Allowance qualifies as Tier 2 equity up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Consequently, due to the level of the Company's provisioning for loan losses, approximately $49.4 million of Allowance was disallowed at December 31, 2009, under the risk-based capital rules, which equated to 2.44% of risk-weighted assets.
The Company is planning to file a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register up to $100 million in securities. The Company anticipates that the registration statement would be filed within the next several weeks. While the Company has no immediate plans to raise capital under the shelf registration statement, it provides the Company with the financial flexibility to do so at the appropriate time.
This announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. It is the Company's intention to file a shelf registration statement, however there can be no assurance that the Company will actually make such a filing or that the Securities and Exchange Commission will declare the registration statement effective.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the fourth quarter of 2009 decreased by $0.7 million, or 2.6%, to $25.2 million from the same period in 2008. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the third quarter of 2009 was $25.8 million. The net interest margin (NIM) expanded by 21 basis points to 4.36% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2008 and remained relatively consistent with the 4.40% NIM reported in the third quarter of 2009. Increased levels of nonaccrual loans continue to have an adverse effect on our reported NIM.
Average earning assets decreased by $32.8 million on a linked-quarter basis as a result of $92.0 million decrease in loans, net of an increase in the average allowance for loan losses of $8.4 million. Investment securities increased $45.1 million on linked-quarter basis. Customer funding increased $175.4 million on a linked-quarter basis and $352.4 million from the fourth quarter of 2008. Yields on average earning assets decreased by 14 basis points on a linked quarterly basis and 49 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2008 while rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities increased nominally by 4 basis points on a linked-quarterly basis and decreased by 60 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2008.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased by $0.5 million on a linked-quarter basis to $6.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. Noninterest income was $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. As a percentage of total operating revenue, noninterest income was 20.6% for the fourth quarter of 2009 vs. 21.6% for the prior-year quarter.
The noninterest income decline of $0.5 million in the fourth quarter is attributable to a decrease in investment banking and insurance income. In general, all of our business segments continue to be negatively impacted by market conditions in 2009. Although our Investment Banking segment continues to have a diversified backlog of engaged transactions, restricted credit markets and substantial uncertainty over sellers' future performance and cash-flow, had an adverse impact on the number of deals closed as well as on the number of deals actively engaged during 2009. Our Insurance Segment's revenues were adversely affected by a continued soft premium market for property and casualty insurance. Similarly, the decline in the broader equity market negatively impacted Investment Advisory earnings.
Operating Expenses
Noninterest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $23.8 million as compared to $36.0 million for the third quarter of 2009. The third quarter of 2009 included a noncash goodwill impairment charge of $12.5 million. Noninterest expenses in the fourth quarter of 2008 were $23.6 million.
Salaries and employee benefit expenses decreased by $0.3 million on a linked-quarter basis to $13.0 million. During 2009 the Company was able to attract a number of talented employees and costs have risen accordingly, increasing in fourth quarter by $1.0 million as compared to $12.0 million in the prior-year quarter. Overall, the company's full-time equivalents increased by 9.4 to 544.7 from December 31, 2008. The majority of the new hires came in the third and fourth quarters of 2009.
Other operating expenses were stable on a linked-quarter basis showing a slight decrease of $0.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2009, largely the result of lower loan workout costs relative to the third quarter costs.
Net loss on securities, other assets and OREO increased to $1.6 million as compared to third quarter losses of $0.9 million and was primarily attributed to sales and valuation activity in the OREO portfolio.
Excluding the third quarter noncash goodwill impairment charge, the Company's fourth quarter expenses increased by $0.3 million on a linked-quarter basis. The Company's efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2009 was 68.3% as compared to 65.1% for 2008, an unfavorable change relating to higher loan workout costs and significant increases in FDIC insurance premiums offset by cost-cutting initiatives and decreases in incentive compensation across all levels of the organization.
