Financial Performance
Western Alliance Bancorporation reported a net loss of $23.9 million in the third quarter 2009, including a reserve build of $20.0 million, net losses on the sale of assets of $7.3 million, and net gains from securities activities of $5.0 million. The net loss on asset sales includes $3.4 million in write downs on four bank-owned premises. These bank-owned premises are being consolidated into other branch facilities as part of the Company's efficiency improvement plan. The net gain from securities was primarily from sales of some adjustable rate preferred stock, which had been previously impaired.
Total loans declined $61 million to $3.97 billion at September 30, 2009 from $4.03 billion on June 30, 2009 and increased $21 million from $3.95 billion at September 30, 2008.
Customer funds increased $344 million to $5.00 billion at September 30, 2009 from June 30, 2009, comprised of a $380 million increase in deposits and a $36 million decrease in customer repurchase agreements. From September 30, 2008, customer funds increased $1.25 billion, comprised of a $1.28 billion increase in deposits and a $31 million decrease in customer repurchase agreements. Non-interest bearing title company deposits declined $33 million to $105 million during the 12 months ended September 30, 2009 and decreased $3 million from June 30, 2009.
Robert Sarver, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Western Alliance, remarked, "We continue to see the impact of the recession in our particularly hard hit markets on our performance. While non-performing assets continue to rise due to falling collateral values, we have increased our reserve build by $20 million, are consolidating bank branches where appropriate, and begun to execute strategic cost reduction programs. We are in process of merging four of our 41 offices into nearby facilities, as well as centralizing other operations. These efficiency improvements should be visible in the first quarter of 2010.
"These actions, coupled with the franchise value we are creating from our continued exceptional growth in deposits, which are up over $1 billion year to date, should better position the company for strong performance once economic conditions improve."
Income Statement
Net interest income decreased 1.8 percent to $49.0 million in the third quarter 2009 from $49.9 million in the third quarter 2008. The net interest margin in the third quarter 2009 was 3.69 percent compared to 4.17 percent in the second quarter 2009 and 4.36 percent in the third quarter 2008. The decrease in the interest margin was largely due to increases in our record liquidity position. The effect of our short term investments, primarily balances on deposit at the Federal Reserve, has reduced our margin by approximately 42 basis points.
The provision for loan losses was $50.8 million for the third quarter 2009 compared to $37.6 million for the second quarter 2009 and $14.7 million for the third quarter 2008. Nonaccrual loans and repossessed assets were $239.1 million or 4.10 percent of total assets at September 30, 2009, compared with $158.5 million or 2.78 percent of total assets at June 30, 2009 and $40.6 million or 0.78 percent of total assets at September 30, 2008. Net loan charge-offs in the third quarter 2009 were $30.7 million or 3.05 percent of average loans (annualized), compared to net charge-offs of $30.6 million or 3.00 percent of average loans (annualized) for the second quarter 2009 and $16.3 million or 1.65 percent of average loans (annualized) for the third quarter 2008. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing totaled $2.5 million at quarter end, down from $36.1 million at June 30, 2009 and up from $0.7 million at September 30, 2008. Loans past due 30-89 days totaled $44.0 million at quarter end, down from $75.5 million at June 30, 2009 and up from $35.0 million at September 30, 2008.
Non-interest income, excluding increases in fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value and net losses on the sale of repossessed assets, was $8.1 million for the third quarter 2009, up 9.8 percent from $7.4 million for the same period in 2008. For the second quarter 2009, non-interest income was $7.2 million.
Net revenue (sum of net interest income and non-interest income, excluding securities impairment charges, net mark-to-market gains and net gains/losses on the sale of repossessed assets) was $57.1 million for the third quarter 2009, down 0.3 percent from $57.3 million for the third quarter 2008. For the second quarter 2009, net revenue was $58.0 million.
Non-interest expense (excluding goodwill impairment charges) was $44.8 million for the third quarter 2009, up $4.2 from $40.6 million for the same period in 2008. For the second quarter 2009, non-interest expense was $48.6 million. The Company had 1,023 full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2009, compared to 1,076 at June 30, 2009 and 1,017 one year ago.
The net loss increased $9.8 million to $23.9 million for the third quarter 2009 compared to a $14.1 million net loss for the second quarter 2009. Diluted loss per share was $0.37 compared with a $0.31 diluted loss per share for the second quarter 2009. Average diluted shares increased 34.7 percent to 71.7 million for the third quarter 2009 compared to 53.3 million for the second quarter primarily due to the common equity offering completed in May 2009.
Balance Sheet
Gross loans totaled $3.97 billion at September 30, 2009, a decrease of 1.5 percent from June 30, 2009 and an increase of 0.5 percent from $3.95 billion at September 30, 2008.
