January 20, 2016 4:15 PM

WYOMISSING, PA -- (Marketwired) -- 01/20/16 -- Customers Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE: CUBI)

Customers Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE: CUBI), the parent company of Customers Bank (collectively "Customers"), reported net income to common shareholders of $56.1 million for the full year of 2015 compared to net income to common shareholders of $43.2 million for 2014, an increase of $12.9 million, or 29.8%. Fully diluted earnings per share for the full year of 2015 was $1.96 compared to $1.55 fully diluted earnings per share for 2014, an increase of $0.41 per share, or 26.5%. Average fully diluted shares for 2015 were 28.7 million compared to average fully diluted shares for 2014 of 27.9 million.

Customers also reported net income to common shareholders of $16.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 ("Q4 2015") compared to net income to common shareholders of $13.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 ("Q4 2014"), an increase of $3.6 million, or 27.3%. Q4 2015 fully diluted earnings per share was $0.58 compared to $0.47 for Q4 2014, an increase of $0.11 per share, or 23.4%. Average fully diluted shares for Q4 2015 were 28.9 million compared to average fully diluted shares for Q4 2014 of 28.0 million.

"Customers is pleased to report record net income to common shareholders for 2015 of $1.96 fully diluted earnings per share. 2015 net income reached management's estimated earnings for 2015 despite the unfortunate $9.0 million fraud identified during the second quarter of the year reducing earnings by $0.21 a share," commented Jay Sidhu, Chairman and CEO of Customers. Continuing, Mr. Sidhu said, "In 2015 we strengthened our core business franchise as we added commercial loan and deposit generating teams to existing Pennsylvania, New York, and New England teams, laying the foundation for continued strong commercial and industrial loan growth in 2016 and beyond. We supported our loan and profitability growth by increasing holding company Tier 1 capital by $118 million, or 27%, in 2015 primarily through a $56 million net preferred stock offering and retaining all $56 million of 2015 net income. We invested in Customers' future by expanding our risk management, administrative, compliance and technical teams so that we can manage the risks and support an $8.0 billion and larger bank, developed and introduced the BankMobile platform as the digital delivery channel of the future for consumers, and announced an agreement to acquire Higher One's disbursement business. The Higher One disbursement business currently services approximately 2 million existing student deposit accounts and provides a platform to generate over 500,000 new deposit accounts annually. We are excited about our high technology platform for creating a successful mobile first digital bank for the future and the many opportunities that presents for our shareholders and customers. 2015 was an incredible year for Customers, and we have positioned ourselves well for an even better 2016 and beyond."

Other financial and business highlights for 2015 compared to 2014 include:

Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014:

Customers' Q4 2015 net income to common shareholders of $16.8 million increased $3.6 million, or 27.3%, from net income to common shareholders of $13.2 million in Q4 2014. The increase in Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014 net income to common shareholders resulted primarily from a $8.5 million increase in net interest income as loan and security average balances were nearly $1.3 billion greater in Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014 reflecting Customers continuing loan growth, and a $2.4 million payment received on a bank-owned life insurance policy, offset in part by the Q4 2015 $3.0 million provision to reserve the full balance of the fraudulent loan initially reported in the second quarter of 2015.

Other financial highlights of Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014 include:

Q4 2015 compared to Q3 2015:

Customers' Q4 2015 net income to common shareholders of $16.8 million increased $2.5 million, or 17.3%, from net income to common shareholders of $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2015 ("Q3 2015"). The increase in Q4 2015 compared to Q3 2015 net income to common shareholders resulted primarily from a $4.0 million increase in interest income as loan and investment security average balances were nearly $500 million greater in Q4 2015 compared to Q3 2015 as Customers grew loan balances during Q4 2015, and a $2.4 million payment received on a bank-owned life insurance policy, offset in part by the $3.0 million provision for loan losses related to the loan initially reported as a fraudulent loan in the second quarter of 2015.

Other financial highlights for Q4 2015 compared to Q3 2015 include:

"Achieving earnings of $0.58 in the fourth quarter of 2015 is a tremendous accomplishment for the entire Customers team," said Bob Wahlman, Chief Financial Officer of Customers Bancorp, Inc. "Our team's accomplishment reflects the successful execution of the strategies we have adopted to achieve our performance targets of a return on assets around 1.0% and return on common equity of 12.0%. At this point, we are close to achieving the annual return on common equity performance target. The strong fourth quarter also puts us in a strong position to achieve our stated net income to common shareholders guidance of $2.40 to $2.50 from our core banking operations in 2016. Acquisition of the Higher One disbursement business, excluding anticipated one-time charges related to the acquisition and integration, is expected to be non-dilutive to our 2016 earnings and accretive to our 2017 earnings."
