LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PBB Bancorp (“PBCA”) (OTCQX: PBCA), the parent company of Premier Business Bank (“Premier”), announced a 21% increase in assets over the previous years’ same quarter. Reported total assets is another record high in the Bank’s history. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2017 reflected exceptional results: total assets of $529.4 million; net loans of $428.2 million; total deposits of $417.8 million; and total equity of $47.1 million.
Net income for the 3 month period ended March 31, 2017 was $1,348,000, or $0.27 per share, compared to $2,357,000, or $0.47 per share. Net income for the 3 month period in 2016 included a one-time after-tax net gain, associated with the merger of First Mountain Bank in January 2016, of $1.8 million in non-interest income less $325,000 in after-tax non-interest expenses. Today, net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 reflects $5.1 million, an increase of $1.4million, or 38%, compared to the same period last year. This was primarily due to the loan portfolio growth of $68.6 million, or 19%, compared to the same period ended last year. Non-interest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $730,000, adjusted for the merger related expenses, as compared to the same three month period last year. The increase was primarily a result of system and interior upgrades needed at the newly merged branches, along with our strategic core deposit branch expansion in Palos Verdes Estates. Total deposits as of March 31, 2017 were $417.8 million reflecting an increase of $86.0 million, or 26%, as compared to the same period ending last year. Strategic deposit growth was primarily in Money Market Demand Accounts of $74.7 million, and non-interest bearing Demand Deposits of $16.1 million.
“We are extremely pleased with our strong financial performance for the first quarter of 2017. A solid outcome reflecting the results of strategic positive growth in assets, loans, and deposits. As we move forward into the second quarter, we look to increase our core deposit footprint with planned expansion; all while continuing to leverage our diversified loan portfolio,” stated President and Chief Executive Officer, John R. Polen.
