Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPBI) (the “Company” or “Pacific Premier”), the holding company of Pacific Premier Bank (the “Bank”), reported net loss of $135.4 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with net income of $46.0 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023, and net income of $73.7 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022.

For the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company’s return on average assets (“ROAA”) was (2.76)%, return on average equity (“ROAE”) was (19.01)%, and return on average tangible common equity (“ROATCE”) (1) was (28.01)%, compared to 0.88%, 6.43%, and 10.08%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2023, and 1.36%, 10.71%, and 16.99%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Excluding net loss of $254.1 million from an investment securities repositioning transaction and $2.1 million FDIC special assessment expense (1) , the Company’s adjusted net income was $48.4 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, ROAA was 0.99%, ROAE was 7.03%, and ROATCE was 11.19% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Total assets as of December 31, 2023 were $19.03 billion, compared to $20.28 billion at September 30, 2023, and $21.69 billion at December 31, 2022.

Steven R. Gardner, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President of the Company, commented, “Our team delivered another solid quarter to close out 2023, an extraordinary year for the banking industry. During the fourth quarter, we proactively repositioned our securities portfolio to enhance our future earnings profile and provide additional liquidity as we navigate a challenging operating environment. The repositioning produced immediate results, fueling a 16 basis point net interest margin expansion in the fourth quarter while our capital ratios remain among the strongest in the industry. We generated $0.51 per share in operating earnings when excluding the impact from the securities portfolio repositioning and the FDIC special assessment expense.

“Our financial performance continues to demonstrate the strength of our franchise and our disciplined commitment to prudent capital, liquidity, and credit risk management. Throughout the year, we leveraged our best-in-class service to deepen our relationships with existing clients and attract new clients to the Bank, generating meaningful growth in new deposit account openings while maintaining pricing discipline. The new account opening activity, coupled with our ability to opportunistically deploy liquidity generated from the securities portfolio repositioning, allowed us to reduce higher cost wholesale funding in the fourth quarter by $817 million and to tightly manage our overall cost of funds, which increased only two basis points to 1.69%.

“We enter 2024 on solid footing, with strong capital levels, ready access to significant liquidity, and favorable asset quality measures. Through our relationship-based business model, our bankers consistently communicate with our clients and monitor key trends within their individual businesses and industries. This access provides our organization with valuable information relative to market dynamics, including emerging trends in the commercial real estate markets, which we are closely monitoring. We are committed to responding quickly and proactively to any signs of stress within the loan portfolio. In short, we believe we are well-positioned heading into 2024 to continue to deliver value for our shareholders, clients, employees, and the communities we serve.”

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income totaled $146.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 1.8%, from the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in net interest income was primarily attributable to lower average interest-earning asset balances, partially offset by higher yields on interest-earning assets as well as lower average wholesale/brokered CD balances and lower average borrowings, both a direct result of our balance sheet repositioning.

The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 16 basis points to 3.28% from 3.12% in the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher loan yields as well as higher investment securities yields resulting from the sale of lower-yielding available-for-sale ("AFS") securities of $1.26 billion at fair value at a weighted average yield of 1.34% and redeploying part of the sale proceeds into higher-yielding AFS securities at a weighted average yield of 5.28% during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased $34.6 million, or 19.1%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a higher cost of funds as a result of the higher interest rate environment.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a $1.7 million provision expense, compared to a $3.9 million provision expense for the third quarter of 2023, and a $2.8 million provision expense for the fourth quarter of 2022. The provision for credit losses was impacted by changes to the overall size, composition, and asset quality trends of the loan portfolio, as well as changes in the economic forecasts.

The provision expense for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2023 was largely attributable to increases associated with economic forecasts, partially offset by the changes in loan composition. The provision recapture for unfunded commitments was attributable to lower unfunded commitments as well as changes in economic forecasts during the quarter.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest loss for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $234.2 million, compared to noninterest income of $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was related to the investment securities portfolio repositioning during the fourth quarter of 2023 whereby the Bank sold $1.26 billion of its AFS securities portfolio for a loss of $254.1 million. Excluding the loss from sales of AFS securities, noninterest income was $19.9 million, an increase of $1.3 million from the third quarter of 2023.

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased $254.7 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the $254.1 million net loss from sales of investment securities during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $102.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of $585,000 compared to the third quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of the $2.1 million FDIC special assessment. Excluding the special assessment, noninterest expense decreased $1.5 million from the prior quarter primarily due to a $2.2 million decrease in compensation and benefits, partially offset by a $341,000 increase in deposit expense.

Noninterest expense increased by $3.6 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 primarily due to a $4.4 million increase in deposit expense, driven by higher deposit earnings credit rates, and a $2.8 million increase in FDIC insurance premiums, partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease in compensation and benefits, a $512,000 decrease in legal and professional services, and a $458,000 decrease in premises and occupancy.

Income Tax

For the fourth quarter of 2023, our income tax benefit totaled $56.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 29.4%, compared to income tax expense of $16.0 million and an effective tax rate of 25.8% for the third quarter of 2023, and income tax expense of $26.2 million and an effective tax rate of 26.2% for the fourth quarter of 2022. The income tax benefit was primarily attributable to the pretax loss recorded for the fourth quarter, driven by the balance sheet repositioning related to the Bank’s investment securities portfolio.

For the full year 2023, our income tax expense totaled $3.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 9.4%, compared to income tax expense of $100.6 million and an effective tax rate of 26.18% for the full year 2022. The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the decrease in pretax income.

BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS

Loans

Loans held for investment totaled $13.29 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $18.9 million, or 0.1%, from September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $1.39 billion, or (9.5)%, from December 31, 2022. The increase from September 30, 2023 was driven primarily by increased net draws on existing lines of credits, partially offset by higher loan prepayments and maturities.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, new loan commitments totaled $128.1 million, and new loan fundings totaled $103.7 million, compared with $67.8 million in loan commitments and $25.6 million in new loan fundings for the third quarter of 2023, and $239.8 million in loan commitments and $149.1 million in new loan fundings for the fourth quarter of 2022.

At December 31, 2023, the total loan-to-deposit ratio was 88.6%, compared with 82.9% and 84.6% at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses

At December 31, 2023, our allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans held for investment was $192.5 million, an increase of $4.4 million from September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $3.2 million from December 31, 2022. The change in ACL from September 30, 2023 was largely impacted by changes in economic forecasts and, to a lesser extent, loan composition.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company incurred $3.9 million of net charge-offs, compared with $6.8 million of net charge-offs during the third quarter of 2023, and $3.8 million of net charge-offs during the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively.

The following table provides the allocation of the ACL for loans held for investment, as well as the activity in the ACL attributed to various segments in the loan portfolio as of and for the period indicated:

At December 31, 2022, 26% of loans held for investment include a fair value net discount of $54.8 million, or 0.37% of loans held for investment.

Investment Securities

At December 31, 2023, AFS and held-to-maturity ("HTM") investment securities were $1.14 billion and $1.73 billion, respectively, compared to $1.91 billion and $1.74 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2023, and $2.60 billion and $1.39 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2022.

In total, investment securities were $2.87 billion at December 31, 2023, a decrease of $782.9 million from $3.65 billion at September 30, 2023 and a decrease of $1.12 billion from $3.99 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter was primarily attributable to sales of $1.26 billion of AFS securities, as well as principal payments, amortization, and redemptions of $64.3 million, partially offset by purchases of $539.1 million, predominantly short-term U.S. Treasury securities.

The decrease in investment securities from December 31, 2022 was primarily attributable to sales of $1.57 billion of AFS securities, as well as principal payments, amortization, and redemptions of $349.5 million, partially offset by purchases of $784.9 million.

Deposits

At December 31, 2023, total deposits were $15.00 billion, a decrease of $1.01 billion, or 6.3%, from September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $2.36 billion, or 13.6%, from December 31, 2022. The decrease from the prior quarter included the reduction of $617.0 million in brokered certificates of deposit. The remainder of the deposit decrease from the prior quarter of $394.8 million was driven by a decrease of $849.5 million in noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by increases of $301.2 million in interest-bearing checking and $158.6 million in retail certificates of deposit.

At December 31, 2023, non-maturity deposits (1) totaled $12.70 billion, or 84.7% of total deposits, a decrease of $553.5 million, or 4.2%, from September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $2.15 billion, or 14.5%, from December 31, 2022. The decrease compared to the prior quarter was partially attributable to seasonal outflows for client tax payments. Additionally, the linked-quarter and year-ago quarter decreases were impacted by clients redeploying funds into higher yielding alternatives, prepaying or paying down loans, and shifting depositor behavior following the industry-wide turmoil experienced in the first half of 2023.

At December 31, 2023, maturity deposits totaled $2.29 billion, a decrease of $458.4 million, or 16.6%, from September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $208.4 million, or 8.3%, from December 31, 2022. The decrease in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to the reduction of $617.0 million in brokered certificates of deposit, partially offset by an increase of $158.6 million in retail certificates of deposit.

The weighted average cost of total deposits for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 1.56%, compared with 1.50% for the third quarter of 2023 and 0.58% for the fourth quarter of 2022. The increases in the weighted average cost of deposits for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2023 and fourth quarter of 2022 were principally driven by higher pricing across most deposit categories. The weighted average cost of non-maturity deposits (1) for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 1.02%, compared to 0.89% for the third quarter of 2023, and 0.31% for the fourth quarter of 2022.

At December 31, 2023, the end-of-period weighted average rate of total deposits was 1.55%, compared to 1.52% at September 30, 2023 and 0.79% at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2023, the end-of-period weighted average rate of non-maturity deposits was 1.04%, compared to 0.96% at September 30, 2023 and 0.43% at December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2023, the Company’s FDIC-insured deposits as a percentage of total deposits was 60%. Insured and collateralized deposits comprised 66% of total deposits at December 31, 2023, which includes federally-insured deposits, $732.6 million of collateralized municipal and tribal deposits, and $70.0 million of privately insured deposits.

Borrowings

At December 31, 2023, total borrowings amounted to $931.8 million, a decrease of $199.8 million from September 30, 2023 and a decrease of $399.4 million from December 31, 2022. Total borrowings at December 31, 2023 included $600.0 million of FHLB term advances and $331.8 million of subordinated debt. The decrease in borrowings at December 31, 2023 as compared to September 30, 2023 was primarily due to an early redemption of a $200.0 million in FHLB term advance during the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in borrowings at December 31, 2023 as compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease of $400.0 million in FHLB term advances.

As of December 31, 2023, our unused borrowing capacity was $8.68 billion, which consists of available lines of credit with FHLB and other correspondent banks as well as access through the Federal Reserve Bank's discount window and the Bank Term Funding Program, neither of which were utilized during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Capital Ratios

At December 31, 2023, our common stockholder's equity was $2.88 billion, or 15.15% of total assets, compared with $2.86 billion, or 14.08% of total assets, at September 30, 2023, and $2.80 billion, or 12.90% of total assets, at December 31, 2022, with a book value per share of $30.07, compared with $29.78 at September 30, 2023 and $29.45 at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2023, the ratio of tangible common equity to total assets (1) was 10.72%, compared with 9.87% at September 30, 2023 and 8.88% at December 31, 2022, and tangible book value per share (1) was $20.22, compared with $19.89 at September 30, 2023 and $19.38 at December 31, 2022. The increase in tangible book value per share at December 31, 2023 from September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by other comprehensive income from the realized loss, net of tax, resulting from the sale of AFS securities in the fourth quarter of 2023, partially offset by the net loss and the dividends paid during the quarter. The increase in tangible book value per share at December 31, 2023 from December 31, 2022 was primarily driven by other comprehensive income and, to the lesser extent, net income, partially offset by the dividends paid in 2023.

The Company implemented the CECL model on January 1, 2020 and elected to phase in the full effect of CECL on regulatory capital over the five-year transition period. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company began phasing into regulatory capital the cumulative adjustments at the end of the second year of the transition period at 25% per year. At December 31, 2023, the Company and Bank were in compliance with the capital conservation buffer requirement and exceeded the minimum Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and total capital ratios, inclusive of the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer of 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively, and the Bank qualified as “well-capitalized” for purposes of the federal bank regulatory prompt corrective action regulations.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations; adverse developments in the banking industry highlighted by high-profile bank failures and the potential impact of such developments on customer confidence, liquidity, and regulatory responses to these developments; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary, and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; interest rate, liquidity, economic, market, credit, operational, and inflation risks associated with our business, including the speed and predictability of changes in these risks; our ability to attract and retain deposits and access to other sources of liquidity, particularly in a rising or high interest rate environment, and the quality and composition of our deposits; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our current and future geographic markets, including the tight labor market, ineffective management of the U.S. Federal budget or debt, or turbulence or uncertainty in domestic or foreign financial markets; the effect of acquisitions we have made or may make, including, without limitation, the failure to achieve the expected revenue growth and/or expense savings from such acquisitions, and/or the failure to effectively integrate an acquisition target into our operations; the timely development of competitive new products and services and the acceptance of these products and services by new and existing customers; possible impairment charges to goodwill, including any impairment that may result from increased volatility in our stock price; the impact of changes in financial services policies, laws, and regulations, including those concerning taxes, banking, securities, and insurance, and the application thereof by regulatory bodies; compliance risks, including the costs of monitoring, testing, and maintaining compliance with complex laws and regulations; the effectiveness of our risk management framework and quantitative models; the transition away from USD LIBOR and related uncertainty as well as the risk and costs related to our adoption of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”); the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices or accounting standards, as may be adopted from time-to-time by bank regulatory agencies, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other accounting standards setters; possible credit-related impairments of securities held by us; changes in the level of our nonperforming assets and charge-offs; the impact of governmental efforts to restructure the U.S. financial regulatory system; the impact of recent or future changes in the FDIC insurance assessment rate or the rules and regulations related to the calculation of the FDIC insurance assessment amount, including any special assessments; changes in consumer spending, borrowing, and savings habits; the effects of our lack of a diversified loan portfolio, including the risks of geographic and industry concentrations; the possibility that we may reduce or discontinue the payments of dividends on our common stock; the possibility that we may discontinue, reduce or otherwise limit the level of repurchases of our common stock we may make from time to time pursuant to our stock repurchase program; changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers; changes in the competitive environment among financial and bank holding companies and other financial service providers; geopolitical conditions, including acts or threats of terrorism, actions taken by the United States or other governments in response to acts or threats of terrorism, and/or military conflicts, including the war between Russia and Ukraine and the war in the Middle East, which could impact business and economic conditions in the United States and abroad; public health crises and pandemics, including with respect to COVID-19, and their effects on the economic and business environments in which we operate, including on our credit quality and business operations, as well as the impact on general economic and financial market conditions; cybersecurity threats and incidents, and related potential costs and risks, including reputation, financial and litigation risks; climate change, including the enhanced regulatory, compliance, credit, and reputational risks and costs; natural disasters, earthquakes, fires, and severe weather; unanticipated regulatory or legal proceedings; and our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and available at the SEC’s Internet site ( http://www.sec.gov ).

GAAP to NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

(Unaudited)

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. 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.

For periods presented below, return on average assets excluding net loss from investment securities repositioning and FDIC special assessment is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP based amounts. We calculate this figure by excluding the net loss from investment securities repositioning during the fourth quarter of 2023, the FDIC special assessment, and the related tax impact from net income. Management believes that the exclusion of such nonrecurring items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business and a better comparison of financial performance.

Adjusted by statutory tax rate

For periods presented below, return on average tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate this figure by excluding amortization of intangible assets expense from net income and excluding the average intangible assets and average goodwill from the average stockholders' equity during the periods indicated. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business. The adjusted net income, adjusted return on average equity, and adjusted return on average tangible common equity further exclude the nonrecurring items to provide a better comparison to the financial results of prior periods.

The adjusted basic earnings per common share and adjusted diluted earnings per common share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. We calculate the adjusted basic earnings per common share by dividing net income allocable to common shareholders, excluding the net loss from investment securities repositioning during the fourth quarter of 2023, the FDIC special assessment, and the related tax impact, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period, excluding outstanding participating securities. The adjusted diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income allocable to common shareholders, excluding the net loss from investment securities repositioning, FDIC special assessment, and the related tax impact, by the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding over the reporting period, adjusted to include the effect of potentially dilutive common shares based on adjusted net income, but excludes awards considered participating securities. The computation of diluted earnings per common share excludes the impact of the assumed exercise or issuance of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business and a better comparison of financial performance.

Pre-provision net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate the pre-provision net revenue by excluding income tax and provision for credit losses from net income. The adjusted pre-provision net income further excludes the nonrecurring items to provide a better comparison of financial performance. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business and a better comparison to the financial results of prior periods.

Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. This figure represents the ratio of noninterest expense, less amortization of intangible assets and other real estate owned operations, where applicable, to the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and total noninterest income less (loss) gain from investment securities, (loss) gain from other real estate owned, and gain from debt extinguishment. The adjusted efficiency ratio further excludes the FDIC special assessment to provide a better comparison to the financial results of prior periods. Management believes that the exclusion of such items from this financial measure provides useful information to gain an understanding of the operating results of our core business.

Tangible book value per share and tangible common equity to tangible assets (the “tangible common equity ratio”) are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per share, which we calculate by dividing common stockholders' equity by shares outstanding. We calculate the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common stockholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. We believe that this information is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our capital position and ratios.

Cost of non-maturity deposits is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. Cost of non-maturity deposits is calculated as the ratio of non-maturity deposit interest expense to average non-maturity deposits. We calculate non-maturity deposit interest expense by excluding interest expense for all certificates of deposit from total deposit expense, and we calculate average non-maturity deposits by excluding all certificates of deposit from total deposits. Management believes cost of non-maturity deposits is a useful measure to assess the Company's deposit base, including its potential volatility.
