HOPE BANCORP REPORTS 2020 SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
LOS ANGELES - July 30, 2020 - Hope Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HOPE), the holding company of Bank of Hope (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results for its three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, net income totaled $26.8 million, or $0.22 per diluted common share, compared with $26.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share for the 2020 first quarter. In the year-ago second quarter, net income totaled $42.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted common share.
“The second quarter of 2020 represented the most challenging operating environment in the history of our Bank, with the COVID-19 crisis exacerbated by the aggregate 150 basis point reduction in the Fed Funds rate in March and the mounting social justice movement across the nation,” said Kevin S. Kim, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hope Bancorp, Inc. “Notwithstanding these strong headwinds, I am proud of how the entire Bank of Hope team came together and has been managing through this difficult period. We delivered solid loan production, significant core deposit growth and positive deposit cost trends as well as meaningful cost reductions. We also supported many of our customers impacted by COVID-19 with modifications under the CARES Acts during the quarter and maintained relatively stable asset quality metrics. While our net interest margin was heavily impacted by the rate cuts as well as a buildup of our liquidity and resulting excess cash balances, we believe this quarter represents the trough. Going forward, we expect stable loan yields, continued reductions in our deposit costs and the deployment of excess cash balances will lead to an expansion of our net interest margin in the coming quarters.
“We are in the late stages of developing additional initiatives in light of the new normal designed to restructure our balance sheet and contain expenses to further optimize our operational performance. We believe the near-term implementation of these initiatives will lead to improved profitability as we progress through the year and beyond. With our robust capital and liquidity positions as well as the successes achieved to date with our deposit initiatives, we have great confidence in our ability to navigate through this new landscape and emerge as an even stronger regional bank to support the financial needs of our customers and communities and deliver greater value to our shareholders.”
Q2 2020 Highlights
•New loan originations totaled $832 million, including $480 million of PPP loans, which led to a 2.3% increase in loans receivable quarter-over-quarter, or 9% annualized.
•Total deposits increased 10.0% quarter-over-quarter, of which the vast majority of the growth was in noninterest bearing demand deposits.
•Continuation of favorable mix-shift to lower-cost core deposits contributed to a 47 basis point reduction quarter-over-quarter in total deposit costs.
•NIM compression of 52 basis points represents the trough, with expansion expected going forward from stable loan yields, continued reduction in deposit costs and deployment of excess cash.
•Strategic reductions in noninterest expenses contributed to an improved 1.60% ratio as a percentage of average assets, versus 1.87% in the preceding first quarter.
•Continued buildup of reserves with allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans receivable increasing to 1.26% at June 30, 2020 from 1.15% at March 31, 2020.

Operating Results for the 2020 Second Quarter
Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the 2020 second quarter totaled $109.8 million, compared with $119.3 million in the 2020 first quarter. The decrease primarily reflects a full quarter’s impact of the aggregate 150 basis point decrease in the Fed Funds rate in March 2020, along with a large payoff of an acquired loan that contributed $5.6 million in purchase accounting discount accretion in the first quarter of 2020. Net interest income before provision for credit losses amounted to $117.2 million in the year-ago second quarter.
The net interest margin for the 2020 second quarter decreased 52 basis points to 2.79% from 3.31% in the preceding first quarter and was primarily impacted by the Fed Funds rate reductions and a significant increase in lower-yielding cash balances as the Company temporarily increased its excess liquidity as a precautionary measure in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the large payoff mentioned above benefited the 2020 first quarter net interest margin by 16 basis points. The net interest margin for the 2019 second quarter was 3.31%.
The weighted average yield on loans for the 2020 second quarter decreased 83 basis points to 4.23% from 5.06% in the 2020 first quarter, reflecting the repricing of variable rate loans in the Company’s portfolio as a result of the 150 basis point reduction in the Fed Funds rate. In the year-ago second quarter, the weighted average yield on loans was 5.32%.

The weighted average cost of deposits for the 2020 second quarter decreased 47 basis points to 0.87% from 1.34% for the 2020 first quarter and decreased 75 basis points from 1.62% for the year-ago second quarter. The significant improvements in the weighted average cost of deposits reflects the Company’s ongoing success with its initiative to enhance its deposit mix to favor lower-cost core deposits.
Noninterest income totaled $11.2 million for the 2020 second quarter, compared with $13.3 million for the preceding first quarter and $12.3 million for the 2019 second quarter. The Company noted a 38% reduction in service fees on deposit accounts as transaction volumes decreased significantly in the midst of the COVID-19 related lockdowns. In addition, the net gains on sales of other loans in the preceding first quarter included gains from a bulk sale of residential mortgage loans, together with sales of new residential mortgage originations.
Noninterest expense for the 2020 second quarter declined 7% to $67.0 million from $72.1 million in the preceding first quarter, with reductions in compensation expense and professional fees being the largest factors driving the improvement. In the year-ago second quarter, noninterest expense totaled $71.4 million. Noninterest expense as a percentage of average assets for the 2020 second quarter improved to 1.60% from 1.87% for the 2020 first quarter and 1.88% for the 2019 second quarter.
Salaries and employee benefits expense for the 2020 second quarter decreased 9% to $38.9 million from $42.5 million for the 2020 first quarter. The Company noted that PPP loan origination costs of $5.2 million was a material factor in the reduced compensation expense for the current quarter. In the 2019 second quarter, salaries and employee benefits expense totaled $39.3 million.
The effective tax rate for the 2020 second quarter was 26.8%, compared with 19.9% for the preceding first quarter, reflecting the Company’s projections for increased pretax income in the second half of 2020 than previously budgeted. In the year-ago second quarter, the effective tax rate was 25.0%.
Balance Sheet Summary
New loan originations funded during the 2020 second quarter totaled $832.0 million and included SBA PPP loan originations of $480.1 million, traditional SBA loan production of $5.9 million and residential mortgage loan originations of $72.3 million. This compares with 2020 first quarter originations of $624.5 million, including traditional SBA loan production of $49.8 million and residential mortgage loan originations of $37.4 million. In the year-ago second quarter, new loan originations funded totaled $503.9 million, including SBA loan production of $37.2 million and residential mortgage loan originations of $74.0 million.
At June 30, 2020, loans receivable increased 2.3% to $12.87 billion from $12.58 billion at March 31, 2020 and increased 7.5% from $11.98 billion at June 30, 2019.
Total deposits at June 30, 2020 increased by $1.29 billion, or 10.0% quarter-over-quarter, to $14.12 billion from $12.84 billion at March 31, 2020, with $1.03 billion of the increase in noninterest bearing demand deposits, of which approximately $326 million is identified as being related to PPP loans that the Company originated.

The increases in total deposits versus the comparable periods reflect a continuation of a positive shift in the mix of deposits favoring core deposits over the last year.
Following is the deposit composition as of June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019:

Allowance for Credit Losses
The 2020 second quarter provision for credit losses under the CECL methodology was $17.5 million, compared with $28.0 million for the preceding first quarter. This compares with a provision for loan losses under the prior incurred loss methodology of $1.2 million for the 2019 second quarter.
The provision for credit losses for the 2020 second quarter reflects updated macroeconomic variables incorporating the Moody’s Analytics Baseline scenario published June 2020, enhanced qualitative factors in the Company’s ACL methodology, relatively stable asset quality metrics and minimal credit losses, as well as an additional Management overlay to accounts related to COVID-19 modifications.
The ACL as of June 30, 2020 increased to $161.8 million from $144.9 million at March 31, 2020 and from $94.1 million at June 30, 2019. As a percentage of loans receivable (excluding loans held for sale), the ACL rose to 1.26% at June 30, 2020 from 1.15% at March 31, 2020 and from 0.79% at June 30, 2019. The coverage ratio of the ACL to nonperforming loans was 118.82%, 124.06% and 88.73% at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

During the 2020 second quarter, net charge offs were minimal at $652,000, or 0.02% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis. This compares with net charge offs of $3.4 million, or 0.11% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis for the 2020 first quarter and net charge offs for the 2019 second quarter of $1.4 million, or 0.05% of average loans receivable on an annualized basis.
Individually evaluated loans (previously referred to as impaired loans prior to the adoption of CECL) totaled $116.1 million at June 30, 2020. This compares with individually evaluated loans of $118.7 million at March 31, 2020 and impaired loans of $106.0 million at June 30, 2019. The Company attributed $22.2 million of the increase in individually evaluated loans in the 2020 first quarter to the reclassification of PCD (formerly purchased credit-impaired loans) due to the implementation of the new CECL accounting standards.
Capital
At June 30, 2020, the Company and the Bank continued to exceed all regulatory capital requirements to be classified as a “well-capitalized” financial institution. Following are capital ratios for the Company as of June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019:

Hope Bancorp, Inc. (unaudited) | 6/30/2020 |  | 3/31/2020 |  | 6/30/2019 |  | Minimum Guideline for “Well-Capitalized” Bank

Total Risk-Based Ratio | 13.23% |  | 13.06% |  | 13.42% |  | 10.00%

As previously announced, the Company has elected to defer the impact of the adoption of CECL for two years, at which time the impact will be phased-in over a three year period. Therefore, the Day 1 CECL adjustment has not had an impact to the Company’s regulatory capital ratios as of June 30, 2020.
