Hanmi Reports 2023 Second Quarter Results

LOS ANGELES, July 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hanmi Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: HAFC, or “Hanmi”), the parent company of Hanmi Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2023.

Net income for the second quarter of 2023 was $20.6 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared with $22.0 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the second quarter of 2023 were 1.12% and 11.14%, respectively.

Net income for the first half of 2023 was $42.6 million, or $1.39 per diluted share, compared with $45.7 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, for the first half of 2022. For the first six months of 2023, return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.17% and 11.66%, respectively.

CEO Commentary

“Hanmi delivered solid results for the second quarter, reflecting our team’s steady execution of our relationship banking strategy during this period of rising interest rates and uncertain economic conditions,” said Bonnie Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hanmi Financial Corporation. “These results were supported by healthy deposit growth, disciplined expense management and strong credit administration.

“We grew deposits by 1.9% with solid contributions from both new and existing customers, a testament to the success of our relationship banking model. Importantly, our Corporate Korea initiative contributed significantly to new deposit growth in the quarter. Hanmi is uniquely positioned to capture greater market penetration as Korean corporations continue to expand their U.S. operations.

“As expected, our loan production year-to-date has been impacted by lower demand due to escalating interest rates. That said, we are encouraged that our loan pipeline began to grow as we entered the third quarter. Even so, we will continue to take a selective and disciplined approach to lending in the current environment with a focus on attractively priced loans and high-quality borrowers who also have a deposit relationship with Hanmi.

“We are well-positioned to navigate the remainder of the year with a strong base of loyal customers, a growing pipeline of new opportunities, a healthy balance sheet and liquidity position, excellent credit quality and an outstanding and dedicated team.”

Second Quarter 2023 Highlights:

Second quarter net income was $20.6 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, down 6.2% from $22.0 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023 and reflects lower revenues, higher noninterest expenses and no significant credit loss expenses.

Results of Operations
Net interest income for the second quarter decreased $2.5 million to $55.4 million from $57.9 million for the first quarter of 2023, down 4.2%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by an increase in interest-earning asset yields. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 52 basis points to 3.25% for the second quarter of 2023 from 2.73% for the first quarter of 2023. The increase was due to higher market interest rates and a shift in the composition of the portfolio to higher rate deposits. Average interest-bearing deposits were $3.97 billion for the second quarter compared with $3.79 billion for the first quarter. Average loans were $5.94 billion for the second quarter, consistent with the first quarter of 2023. The yield on average loans for the second quarter increased 13 basis points to 5.64% from 5.51% for the first quarter. Second quarter loan prepayment fees were $0.2 million compared with $0.4 million for the first quarter. Net interest margin (taxable-equivalent) for the second quarter was 3.11% compared with 3.28% for the first quarter.

Credit loss expense for the second quarter was negative $0.1 million and included a $0.5 million provision for loan losses and a $0.6 million recovery for off-balance sheet items. For the first quarter, credit loss expense was $2.1 million and included a $2.2 million provision for loan losses and a $0.1 million recovery for off-balance sheet items.

Noninterest income for the second quarter decreased $0.4 million to $7.9 million from $8.3 million for the first quarter. The decrease reflected $0.7 million lower gain on sale income of SBA loans, partially offset by a $0.2 million net increase in service charges and fee income. The volume of SBA loans sold in the second quarter declined to $19.9 million from $29.7 million for the first quarter due to the higher interest rate environment while trade premiums decreased to 7.75% for the second quarter from 7.85% for the first quarter.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter increased $1.5 million to $34.3 million from $32.8 million for the first quarter. The increase was primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in other operating expenses that included a $0.7 million increase in FDIC insurance assessment rates and reflected the absence of a $0.4 million first quarter recovery of a servicing asset valuation allowance and a $0.2 million recovery of other real estate owned and repossessed personal property expenses. All other expense categories were relatively consistent with the first quarter. The efficiency ratio for the second quarter increased to 54.11%, from 49.54% for the prior quarter due to the lower revenue and higher expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets Ratio

Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure in the analysis of Hanmi’s capital strength. Tangible common equity represents stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Hanmi. This financial measure is not a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures.

The following table reconciles this non-GAAP financial measure to the GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated:
