/EIN News/ -- LOS ANGELES, April 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hanmi Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: HAFC, or “Hanmi”), the parent company of Hanmi Bank (the “Bank”), today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2024.
Net income for the first quarter of 2024 was $15.2 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared with $18.6 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023. The return on average assets for the first quarter was 0.81% and the return on average equity was 7.90%, compared with a return on average assets of 0.99% and the return on average equity of 9.70% for the fourth quarter of 2023.
CEO Commentary
“Our first quarter performance highlights the continued execution of our strategy of diversifying our loan portfolio and deposit franchise,” said Bonnie Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hanmi. “Our relationship banking model enabled us to attract new customers, expanding our market share and driving a 6% annualized increase in deposits and a nearly 4% net increase in our C&I portfolio in the first quarter. We remained disciplined and selective in our underwriting practices, which have resulted in excellent asset quality.”
“The Hanmi franchise is robust and well positioned to successfully navigate a dynamic economic environment. Our balance sheet is solid with ample liquidity, and we have strong credit quality and excellent capital ratios. Furthermore, we have a healthy loan pipeline, stable core deposits, and well-managed expenses. Looking ahead, we will continue to optimize our branch network through a consolidation of existing offices and by entering new markets this year. I am grateful to our team of highly skilled bankers who continually build enduring banking relationships with our customers and create value for our shareholders.”
First Quarter 2024 Highlights:
- First quarter net income was $15.2 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared with $18.6 million, or $0.61 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2023. The decline in net income reflects the change to a credit loss expense for the first quarter from a recovery during the fourth quarter of 2023, lower net interest income, and higher noninterest expense, partially offset by higher noninterest income.
- Loans receivable were $6.18 billion at March 31, 2024, essentially unchanged from the end of the fourth quarter of 2023; loan production for the first quarter was $234.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of 8.02%.
- Deposits were $6.38 billion at March 31, 2024, up 1.5% from the end of the fourth quarter of 2023; noninterest-bearing demand deposits were 30.3% of total deposits at the end of the first quarter.
- Net interest income for the first quarter was $50.7 million, down $2.4 million, or 4.7%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, and net interest margin (taxable equivalent) was 2.78% for the first quarter, down 14 basis points; the average yield on loans increased 12 basis points while the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 33 basis points.
- Noninterest income for the first quarter was $7.7 million, up $1.1 million, or 15.8%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting a $0.4 million gain on the sale of residential mortgage loans, a $0.3 million valuation adjustment to bank-owned life insurance in the fourth quarter of 2023, and higher trade finance and remittance fees of $0.2 million.
- Noninterest expenses were $36.4 million for the first quarter, up $1.2 million, or 3.5%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting an increase in salaries and benefits, partially offset by declines in nearly all other expense categories.
- Asset quality remained favorable with criticized loans declining 11.1% from the year-end 2023 to $86.0 million, or 1.4% of loans. Nonperforming assets declined 9.3% to $14.1 million, or 0.19% of total assets, and net charge offs were low at $1.6 million, or 0.10% of average loans (annualized).

Results of Operations
Net interest income for the first quarter decreased $2.4 million to $50.7 million from $53.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, down 4.7%. 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 33 basis points to 4.16% for the first quarter of 2024, from 3.83% for the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits was due to higher market interest rates and higher average balances. Average interest-bearing deposits were $4.41 billion for the first quarter, up 5.6% from $4.17 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. The yield on average loans for the first quarter increased 12 basis points to 6.00%, from 5.88% for the fourth quarter of 2023. Average loans were $6.14 billion for the first quarter, up 1.1% from $6.07 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023. First quarter loan prepayment fees were $0.2 million, compared to $0.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Net interest margin (taxable-equivalent) for the first quarter was 2.78%, compared with 2.92% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter increased by $1.2 million to $36.4 million from $35.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

All other categories of noninterest expense combined, except for data processing, decreased $0.3 million in the first quarter from the fourth quarter of 2023. Data processing increased by less than $0.1 million. The efficiency ratio for the first quarter was 62.42%, compared with 58.86% for the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to the lower revenue and higher expenses.

Asset Quality
Loans 30 to 89 days past due and still accruing were 0.26% of loans at the end of the first quarter of 2024, compared with 0.17% at the end of the prior quarter.
Criticized loans totaled $86.0 million at the end of the first quarter, down from $96.7 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2023. Special mention loans were $62.3 million at the end of the first quarter, down from $65.3 million at December 31, 2023. Reductions in special mention loans included upgrades to pass of $1.5 million, paydowns and payoffs of $1.4 million and downgrades of $0.8 million. The quarter-over-quarter change also included increases from downgrades of $0.7 million of pass loans.
Classified loans were $23.7 million at March 31, 2024, down from $31.4 million at the end of the prior quarter. The $7.7 million decrease was primarily driven by payoffs of $7.3 million, charge-offs of $1.9 million, and paydowns and amortization of $2.1 million. New downgrades to classified loans of $3.6 million partially offset the decrease.
Nonperforming loans were $14.0 million at March 31, 2024, down from $15.5 million at the end of the prior quarter. As a percentage of the loan portfolio, nonperforming loans improved to 0.23% at quarter-end, from 0.25% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2023.
Nonperforming assets were $14.1 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024, down from $15.6 million at the end of the prior quarter. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets also improved to 0.19% at quarter-end, from 0.21% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2023.
Gross charge-offs for the first quarter of 2024 were $2.1 million, compared with $1.8 million for the preceding quarter. Recoveries of previously charged-off loans for the first quarter of 2024 were $0.5 million, compared with $6.8 million of recoveries for the prior quarter, which included a $6.0 million recovery from a 2019 troubled loan relationship. As a result, there were net charge-offs of $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to net recoveries of $5.0 million for the prior quarter.
The allowance for credit losses was $68.3 million at March 31, 2024, compared with $69.5 million at December 31, 2023. Specific allowances for loans increased $1.9 million while the allowance for quantitative and qualitative considerations decreased $3.1 million. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to loans was 1.11% at the end of the first quarter, compared with 1.12% at December 31, 2023.

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”). This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Hanmi’s capital strength. Tangible common equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. 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 disclosure should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
The following table reconciles this non-GAAP performance measure to the GAAP performance measure for the periods indicated:
