BOSTON--()--Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPFH) (the "Company" or "BPFH") today reported first quarter 2013 GAAP Net Income Attributable to the Company of $13.2 million, compared to $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. BPFH reported first quarter diluted earnings per share of $0.15 compared to $0.15 in the fourth quarter of 2012.

On a year-over-year basis, GAAP Net Income Attributable to the Company increased 39% from $9.5 million in the first quarter of 2012. Diluted earnings per share increased 36% from $0.11 in the same period.

"Our Wealth Management businesses performed well in the quarter," said Clayton G. Deutsch, CEO and President. "Core Fees and Income increased 3% on a linked quarter basis and Assets Under Management increased 7% in the same period. Our Wealth Management firms continue to exhibit positive operating leverage. The Private Banking side of our business witnessed a decline in Net Interest Income which was driven by a reduction in earning assets and Net Interest Margin compression. Having said this, our Private Bank is continuing to build profit contribution across all three of our major private banking markets."

Core Fees Increase 3% Linked Quarter

Core Fees and Income (Investment Management and Trust Fees, Private Bank Investment Management and Trust Fees, Wealth Advisory Fees, Other Banking Fee Income and Gain on Sale of Loans) for the first quarter increased 3% to $29.9 million from $29.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Core Fees and Income increased 14% from $26.3 million on a year-over-year basis.

Total Assets Under Management/Advisory ("AUM") increased to $21.9 billion, up 7% from $20.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2012. AUM also increased 7% from $20.4 billion in the first quarter of 2012. The Company experienced first quarter 2013 AUM net inflows of $181 million, as compared to AUM net inflows of $298 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. AUM net inflows for the first quarter of 2012 were $84 million.

Net Interest Income Declines

Net Interest Income in the first quarter was $44.3 million, down 3% from $45.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 due to lower asset yields. On a year-over-year basis, Net Interest Income declined 1% from $44.8 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Net Interest Margin was 3.13% in the first quarter, down six basis points from 3.19% in the fourth quarter. On a year-over-year basis, Net Interest Margin decreased 14 basis points from 3.27% in the first quarter of 2012.

Total Expenses Decrease Linked Quarter

Total Expenses for the first quarter of 2013 were $56.6 million, a 10% decrease from $62.7 million (including restructuring costs of $1.6 million) in the fourth quarter of 2012. On a year-over-year basis, Total Expenses increased 2% from $55.6 million (including restructuring costs of $0.1 million) in the first quarter of 2012.

"Total Expenses in the quarter were impacted by seasonal compensation expenses such as increased 401(k) employee contribution matches and FICA, as well as a retirement benefit valuation update of $1.5 million," said David J. Kaye, Chief Financial Officer. "We expect to see additional savings related to our $10 million cost reduction program reflected in the second quarter 2013 run rate."

Provision

The Company recorded no Provision for Loan Losses in the first quarter, compared to a fourth quarter credit of ($5.0) million. The lack of provision was driven by a reduction in Classified Loans and continued improvement in credit quality. In the first quarter of 2012, there was a provision of $4.0 million.

Criticized Loans decreased 5% to $223.5 million on a linked quarter basis, and decreased 27% year-over-year.

Within loans held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet, $273.6 million and $276.7 million of the balance at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, relate to the Pacific Northwest transaction. All of the deposits held for sale at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 relate to the Pacific Northwest transaction. All other assets and liabilities that will be included in the Pacific Northwest transaction have been classified as other assets held for sale or other liabilities held for sale and are included within other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Adjustments to Net Income Attributable to the Company to arrive at Net Income Attributable to the Common Shareholders, as presented in these tables, include decrease/ (increase) in Noncontrolling Interests Redemption Value and Dividends on Participating Securities.
 

(4)

When the Company has positive Net Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Common Shareholders, the Company adds additional shares to Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding to arrive at Diluted Weighted Average Shares Outstanding for the Diluted Earnings Per Share calculation to reflect the assumed exercise, conversion, or contingent issuance of dilutive securities. If the additional shares would result in anti-dilution they would be excluded from the Diluted Earning Per Share calculation. The potential dilutive shares relate to: unexercised stock options, unvested non-participating restricted stock, unexercised stock warrants, and unconverted Convertible Trust Preferred securities. The amount of shares that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was less than 0.1 million. The amount of shares that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was 0.3 million. The amount of shares that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 1.4 million. See Part II. Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 16: Earnings Per Share" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for additional information.
