In the third quarter, the Company announced a series of actions directed at strengthening its balance sheet, reducing risk and streamlining operations. On September 17th, the Company announced the divestiture of Gibraltar Private Bank for $93 million in cash, along with the sale of its wealth advisory affiliate RINET Company. In addition, on October 6th BPFH announced an agreement in which management at Westfield will complete the purchase of the firm in 2009, rather than in 2014, which will provide $59 million in initial proceeds and the retention of a 12.5% share in Westfield's revenues for eight years. The Westfield transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter. As a result of these transactions, each of these affiliates is included in discontinued operations.
Chairman and CEO Timothy L. Vaill said, "We believe that we are a stronger business today thanks to the steps we took during the quarter to improve our balance sheet and establish the groundwork for sustainable long-term growth as the economy recovers. Our actions during the quarter added almost $100 million in cash to our balance sheet, strengthened our capital position, improved our overall credit metrics, reduced credit risk and improved liquidity. For the quarter, while we continued to build provision for loan losses, we were able to essentially break even. We remain very cautious about continuing economic trends, particularly in the Northern California market, and their impact on our portfolios."
Key Financials (Note: All comparisons relate only to continuing operations).
-- Net Interest Income for the third quarter was $39.7 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 1%, from $39.3 million on a linked quarter basis. Net Interest Income was up 4% from $38.0 million compared to the same period in 2008.
-- Revenue for the third quarter was $66.2 million, with substantially the same revenue on a linked quarter basis and for the same period in 2008.
-- Expenses for the third quarter were $55.9 million, down $1.7 million or 3%, from $57.7 million on a linked quarter basis. Expenses were up 1% from $55.1 million compared to the same period in 2008.
-- Tangible Common Equity/Tangible Assets ("TCE/TA") was 6.31%, up 87 basis points from 5.44% on a linked quarter basis. TCE/TA was up 57 basis points from 5.74% compared to the same period in 2008.
-- Total Balance Sheet Assets for the third quarter were $5.9 billion, down $1.4 billion, or 19%, from $7.3 billion on a linked quarter basis. The decrease is primarily due to the discontinued operations of the divested companies. Total Balance Sheet Assets were down 17% from $7.0 billion compared to the same period in 2008.
-- Provision for Loan Losses for the third quarter was $9.1 million, up $0.4 million or 4%, from $8.7 million on a linked quarter basis. Provision for Loan Losses was down 93% from $135.1 million compared to the same period in 2008.
-- Allowance for Loan Losses as a percentage of Total Loans was essentially flat, at 1.69% from 1.68% on a linked quarter basis.
"As a result of affiliate divestitures during the third quarter, we significantly improved our credit position and increased our overall financial strength," said David J. Kaye, Chief Financial Officer. "Through the sale of Gibraltar, we reduced classified loans by $86 million, or 37%, and non-performing assets by $30 million, or 21%. Further, our strong capital base positions us well to deal with continued economic challenges and invest for future growth."
Total Deposits increased 2% during the third quarter to $4.1 billion and were up 18% on a year-over-year basis. Total Loans increased 2% during the third quarter to $4.3 billion and were up 7% on a year-over-year basis.
Non-Performing Loans as a percentage of Total Loans were 2.31%, up from 1.97% in the second quarter of 2009. Net Charge-offs for the third quarter were $7.1 million, which represented approximately 16 basis points of Total Loans, compared to $5.3 million of net charge-offs during the second quarter 2009, or 13 basis points of Total Loans. Past Due Loans (30-89 days) as a percentage of Total Loans declined 44 basis points on a linked quarter basis to 0.26%.
The Wealth Advisory and Investment Management businesses experienced an increase in assets under management (adjusted for affiliate sales) and an increase in fee income during the third quarter. Total Assets Under Management/Advisory ("AUM") increased 8%, or $1.4 billion, to $18.1 billion in the third quarter. Total AUM was down 6% on a year-over-year basis. Total fee income was up 7%, or $1.4 million, to $22.7 million in the third quarter 2009. Total fee income was down 13%, or $3.5 million on a year-over-year basis.
The Company experienced third quarter AUM outflows of $107 million, as compared to $14 million of inflows in the prior quarter. AUM flows were down $165 million compared to the same period in 2008.
Vaill concluded, "As we continue to manage proactively through a difficult market, the actions we have taken have put us in a stronger financial position and have created more flexibility to allocate resources going forward. We are focused on our core wealth management strategy, helping our affiliates increase current market share and expand their reach among new and existing customers who need reliable, personalized advice and strategic financial counsel as much as ever."
Dividend Payments Concurrent with the release of the third quarter 2009 earnings, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a cash dividend to shareholders of $0.01 per share. The record date for this dividend is November 2, 2009 and the payment date is November 16, 2009.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company calculates its cash earnings by adjusting net income to exclude net amortization of intangibles, impairment, and the impact of certain non-cash share based compensation plans. The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the TCE/TA ratio, to provide information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with peers across the financial sector. (A detailed reconciliation table is attached.)

(1) During the second quarter of 2009 the Company completed the sale
of its affiliates Boston Private Value Investors and Sand Hill
Advisors. In the third quarter of 2009 the Company completed the
sale of its affiliates RINET and Gibraltar. Accordingly, prior
period and current financial information related to the divested
companies are included with discontinued operations.
In addition, on October 6, 2009 the Company announced an agreement
whereby the management of Westfield Capital Management ("WCM")
will complete the purchase of the firm in 2009, instead of in 2014
as previously contemplated. As a result, prior period and current
financial information related to WCM is included with discontinued
operations.
Prior period AUM, for comparative purposes, was adjusted to exclude
the assets managed from the divested companies and WCM operations.
(2) The Company calculates tangible assets by adjusting total assets to
exclude goodwill and intangible assets.
The Company calculates tangible common equity by adjusting total
equity to exclude: the equity from the TARP funding of $154
million, and goodwill and intangible assets and includes the
difference between redemption value and value per ARB 51 for
redeemable non-controlling interests.
The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the
Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets ratio, to provide
information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends
of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with
peers across the financial sector.
A reconciliation from the Company's GAAP Total Equity to Total
Assets ratio to the Non-GAAP Tangible Common Equity to Tangible
Assets ratio is presented below:
Sept 30, Sept 30, June 30,
2009 2008 2009
Total Balance Sheet Assets $ 5,869,590 $ 7,033,574 $ 7,265,738
LESS: Goodwill and intangible assets, Net (149,134 ) (155,751 ) (151,158 )
Tangible Assets (non-GAAP) 5,720,456 6,877,823 7,114,580
Total Equity 619,176 506,357 648,035
LESS: Goodwill and intangible assets, Net (149,134 ) (155,751 ) (151,158 )
TARP Funding (154,000 ) - (154,000 )
ADD: Difference between redemption value of non-controlling interests
and
value under ARB 51
44,963 44,416 44,181
Total adjusting items (258,171 ) (111,335 ) (260,977 )
Tangible Common Equity (non-GAAP) 361,005 395,022 387,058
Total Equity/Total Assets 10.55 % 7.20 % 8.92 %
Tangible Common Equity/Tangible Assets (non-GAAP) 6.31 % 5.74 % 5.44 %
(3) The Company calculates its cash earnings/(loss) by adjusting net
income/(loss) to exclude the amortization of the purchased
intangibles (net of tax), the tax benefit on the portion of the
purchase price allocated to goodwill, which is deductible over a
15 year life, non-cash valuation adjustments, and certain non-cash
share based compensation plans (net of tax). The benefit on the
portion of the purchase price allocated to goodwill deferred under
GAAP accounting but are included in cash earnings since the tax
savings (lower tax payment) will be retained unless the acquired
company is sold. The computation of cash earnings per share
includes the effect of dividends paid or accrued on Preferred
Securities but excludes the accretion of the beneficial conversion
feature, the change in redemption values related to the redeemable
noncontrolling interests and the accretion of the Preferred Series
C Discount. The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures,
such as Cash Earnings/(Loss), to provide information for investors
to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business
activities.
(4) Accretion of the beneficial conversion feature and dividends on
the preferred securities that the Company issued during the third
quarter of 2008. In accordance with EITF 98-5 Accounting for
Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or
Contingently Adjustable Conversions, the beneficial conversion
feature is accounted for as a preferred stock dividend and reduces
the income available to common shareholders.
(5) Accretion of the preferred discount and dividends on the preferred
securities that the Company issued during the fourth quarter of 2008.
(6) The diluted EPS computation for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2009 and for the three months ended June
30, 2009 does not assume:
exercise or contingent issuance of
options or other dilutive securities; conversion of the
convertible trust preferred securities or the Class B preferred
securities; nor the exercise of the warrants because the results
would have been antidilutive. As a result of the antidilution, the
potential common shares excluded from the diluted EPS computation
are as follows:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended
Sept 30, 2009 Sept 30, 2008 June 30, 2009 Sept 30, 2009 Sept 30, 2008
Potential common shares from the convertible trust preferred 3,228,687 3,228,687 3,228,687 3,228,687 3,201,079
securities
Potential common shares from the exercise or contingent issuance 463,721 932,774 981,098 699,035 876,680
of
the options or other dilutive securities
Potential common shares from the conversion of the Class A - 4,346,022 - - 1,464,594
preferred
stock
Potential common shares from the conversion of the Class B 7,261,091 4,972,269 7,261,091 7,261,091 1,675,636
preferred
stock
Potential common shares from the exercise of the warrants - 984,110 - - 331,642
In addition, if the effect of the conversion of the trust
preferred securities would have been dilutive, interest expense,
net of tax, related to the convertible trust preferred securities
of $0.7 million for the three month periods and $2.2 million for
the nine month periods ended Sept 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively,
would be added back to net income for diluted EPS computations for
the periods presented.
(7) The concentration of the Private Banking loan data and credit
quality is based on the location of the lender.
(8) Classified loans include loans classified as either substandard or
doubtful.
(9) Gross impairment expense for the three and nine months ended Sept
30, 2008 was $84.7 million and $122.7 million, respectively.
(10) Includes the non-strategic loans held for sale of $12.8 million
and $17.5 million at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009,
respectively.
(11) Includes the non-strategic loans held for sale of $13.8 million
and $18.6 million at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009,
respectively.
