For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, net income was a record $89.6 million, an increase of 53.7% over net income of $58.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Earnings attributable to BofI’s common stockholders were $89.3 million or $1.39 per diluted share for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of 53.9% from $58.1 million or $0.95 per diluted share for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Record earnings for the quarter and for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 were primarily the result of growth in both the Bank’s loan and lease portfolio and its fee income businesses.

“We achieved record quarterly earnings and earnings per share as a result of robust fee income growth, balanced loan growth and solid net interest margins” stated Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Strong growth in fee income from our H&R Block partnership was a catalyst for our best in class return on assets and return on equity. We continue to generate healthy growth in our single family, C&I and warehouse lending businesses while maintaining a strong core net interest margin and sound credit quality. We closed the acquisition of certain assets and operations of Pacific Western Equipment Finance at the end of the third quarter. The addition of an experienced equipment leasing team with a nationwide footprint further diversifies our commercial lending capabilities. With a strong balance sheet, excellent credit quality and capital flexibility, we will continue to invest in new growth initiatives and ongoing infrastructure enhancements that will further improve our customer service and user experience” Mr. Garrabrants concluded.

This quarter ended March 31, 2016 was the Bank’s first income tax preparation season since it entered into its August 2015 long-term agreement with H&R Block, Inc. to offer co-branded financial products to H&R Block customers. The seasonal impact of income tax refunds received by H&R Block customers this quarter caused an expected increase in the Bank’s fee income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and an





expected temporary increase in assets and deposits included in the balance sheet of the Bank at March 31, 2016. Excluding the H&R Block temporary seasonal growth, consolidated assets and consolidated deposits at March 31, 2016 would have been $7.2 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively.

“The net interest margin would have been 4.02% when excluding the average balances associated with lower yielding excess cash and the average balances and yield earned on the H&R Block related loan products during the quarter, which is consistent with our strong net interest margins reported in previous quarters,” stated Andy Micheletti, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, who continued. “BofI also had strong balance sheet growth even after excluding the seasonal assets and deposits from the H&R Block agreement. Asset growth excluding the seasonal growth this quarter was 29.4% year over year and 29.5% annualized compared to the last quarter ended December 31, 2015. Similarly, deposit growth this quarter was 25.9% year over year and 23.2% annualized growth compared to the last quarter ended December 31, 2015 after excluding seasonal deposit growth.”

“Also this quarter, management and the Board took additional steps to position our business for the future,” added Mr. Micheletti. “In January, we completed our first rating process and our Bank and holding company each received investment grade debt ratings from Kroll Bond Rating Agency. The debt ratings and the overall strength of BofI’s financial position allowed us to conduct a public offering at the holding company of investment-grade 6.25% subordinated notes totaling $51 million of face amount completed in March. With significant volatility in public equity markets in the first three months of 2016, management elected to issue debt for its capital raising activities rather than issuing common equity as in the past. The proceeds of the notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, possible future acquisitions and growth opportunities, possible common stock share repurchases, and to provide new capital to the Bank to support its future growth. Also in March, the Board authorized a program to repurchase up to $100 million of BOFI common stock at our discretion based on our assessment of the stock trading price, general market conditions and other considerations.”

Other Highlights:
Total assets reached $7,705.6 million, up $2,177.1 million or 39.4% compared to March 31, 2015
Loan portfolio grew by $1,393.4 million or 30.0% compared to March 31, 2015
Loan originations and purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $1,248.5 million, up 17.97% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2015
Deposits grew by $1,679.3 million, or 38.4% compared to March 31, 2015
Asset quality remains strong with total non-performing assets of 0.31% of total assets and non-performing loans and leases equal to 0.39% of total loans and leases at March 31, 2016
Return on average common stockholders’ equity was 22.59% compared to 17.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2015
Tangible book value increased to $10.23 per share, up $2.21 per share compared to March 31, 2015
Third Quarter Fiscal 2016 Income Statement Summary
During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, BofI earned $35.9 million or $0.56 per diluted share compared to $21.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Net interest income increased $18.9 million or 37.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to March 31, 2015, due to the $1.9 billion growth in average-earning assets.
The loan and lease loss provision was $2.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Non-performing loans as percentage of total loans was 39 basis points at March 31, 2016 compared to 72 basis points at March 31, 2015 and, for fiscal 2016 year to date, the Bank has experienced a net recovery of $0.8 million. As a result of the decreasing charge-off history, the additional loss provisions added for loan originations and for the equipment lease purchase this quarter have been partially reduced by lower loss rates and lower outstanding balances associated with certain older vintage loans causing a decline in the provision year over year.
For the third quarter ended March 31, 2016, non-interest income was $23.3 million compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase year over year was the result of an increase in banking service fees and other income of $16.3 million, primarily due to seasonal H&R Block-branded products and service fee income.





Non-interest expense or operating costs increased $9.1 million to $29.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 from $20.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was mainly a result of an increase in salaries and related expense of $5.8 million related to staffing added since March 31, 2015, an increase in data processing and internet expense of $1.5 million and an increase of $1.4 million in other general and administrative costs, partially to support seasonal H&R Block-branded products and services. The increases in staffing primarily support loan, deposit, data processing and software initiatives.
Balance Sheet Summary
BofI’s total assets increased $1,881.9 million, or 32.3%, to $7,705.6 million, as of March 31, 2016, up from $5,823.7 million at June 30, 2015. The loan portfolio increased $1,106.1 million on a net basis, primarily from portfolio loan originations and purchases of $2,814.1 million less principal repayments and other adjustments of $1,708.0 million. Loans held for sale decreased $0.7 million. Investment securities increased $100.8 million primarily due to securities purchases. Total liabilities increased by $1,762.1 million, or 33.3%, to $7,052.3 million at March 31, 2016, up from $5,290.2 million at June 30, 2015. The increase in total liabilities resulted primarily from growth in deposits of $1,596.1 million. Stockholders’ equity increased by $119.8 million, or 22.4%, to $653.3 million at March 31, 2016 from $533.5 million at June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily the result of $89.6 million in net income and sale of common stock of $21.1 million, net of commissions and fees.
The Bank’s Tier 1 core capital to adjusted average assets ratio was 8.62% at March 31, 2016.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings. Adjusted earnings, previously labeled as “core earnings,” exclude realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with our securities portfolios. Excluding these gains and losses provides investors with an understanding of BofI’s core lending and mortgage banking business. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their use of such measures. Although BofI believes the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors’ understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures. Below is a reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted earnings:
