CEO COMMENTARY:

“Western Alliance continued to execute on its diversified national commercial business strategy, effectively deploying excess liquidity and generating record revenues, PPNR^1and earnings for the second quarter 2021,” said Kenneth A. Vecchione, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Balance sheet growth was driven by an increase in HFI loans of $2.0 billion (29.3% annualized), excluding PPP payoffs, supported by deposit growth of $3.5 billion (36.9% annualized), lifting total assets to $49.1 billion and PPNR^1by 37.1% in the quarter to $277.4 million. As we began to unlock the value from the AmeriHome acquisition, we achieved record net income of $223.8 million, earnings per share of $2.17 and return on tangible common equity of 28.1% for the second quarter 2021. Asset quality remained strong with nonperforming assets to total assets of 0.20% and negligible net charge-offs for the quarter.”

Acquisition of AmeriHome Mortgage Company:

On April 7, 2021, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Aris Mortgage Holding Company, LLC, the parent company of AmeriHome Mortgage Company, LLC ("AmeriHome"). The Company's results for the second quarter 2021 include the financial results of AmeriHome beginning on April 7, 2021. Pursuant to accounting guidance, acquired assets and liabilities are recorded at estimated fair value as of the acquisition date. The estimated fair value of certain net assets are preliminary and are subject to measurement period adjustments. Based on AmeriHome's closing balance sheet and a $275 million premium, cash consideration was approximately $1.22 billion.

Income Statement

Net interest income was $370.5 million in the second quarter 2021, an increase of $53.2 million from $317.3 million in the first quarter 2021, and an increase of $72.1 million, or 24.2%, compared to the second quarter 2020. Continued loan growth and interest income from AmeriHome's HFS loans drove the increase in net interest income from both the first quarter 2021 and the second quarter 2020.

The Company recorded a reversal of credit loss provisions totaling $14.5 million in the second quarter 2021, a decrease of $17.9 million from the $32.4 million reversal in the first quarter 2021, compared to a provision for credit losses of $92.0 million in the second quarter 2020. The reversal of provisions during the second quarter 2021 is due to continued improvement in economic forecasts relative to March 31, 2021 and concentration of loan growth in portfolio segments with lower expected loss rates.

The Company’s net interest margin in the second quarter 2021 was 3.51%, an increase from 3.37% in the first quarter 2021 and a decrease from 4.19% in the second quarter 2020. The increase in net interest margin from the prior period is largely a result of the deployment of excess liquidity. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter 2020 was driven by the lower rate environment, which lowered loan and investment security yields, but also decreased deposit costs.

Non-interest income was $136.0 million for the second quarter 2021, compared to $19.7 million for the first quarter 2021, and $21.3 million for the second quarter 2020. The increase in non-interest income from the first quarter 2021 and second quarter 2020 is primarily the result of mortgage banking related income from AmeriHome.

Net revenue was $506.5 million for the second quarter 2021, an increase of $169.5 million, or 50.3%, compared to $337.0 million for the first quarter 2021, and an increase of $186.8 million, or 58.4%, compared to $319.7 million for the second quarter 2020. The increase in net revenue from the first quarter 2021 and second quarter 2020 was driven by an increase in loan interest income generated from loan growth and the AmeriHome HFS loans, coupled with an increase in non-interest income from mortgage banking related income.

Non-interest expense of $244.8 million for the second quarter 2021, or $229.1 million adjusted¹ to exclude AmeriHome acquisition and restructure related expenses, compared to $135.0 million for the first quarter 2021, or $134.6 million adjusted¹, and $114.8 million for the second quarter 2020. The Company’s efficiency ratio¹, adjusted to exclude acquisition and restructure related expenses, was 44.5% for the second quarter 2021, compared to 39.0% in the first quarter 2021, and 35.1% for the second quarter 2020. The increase in adjusted non-interest expense¹ from the second quarter 2020 is attributable to growth from the AmeriHome acquisition, which increased compensation costs and also introduced additional non-interest expense items, such as net loan servicing and loan acquisition and origination expenses.

Income tax expense was $52.4 million for the second quarter 2021, compared to $41.9 million for the first quarter 2021, and $19.6 million for the second quarter 2020.

Net income was $223.8 million for the second quarter 2021, an increase of $31.3 million from $192.5 million for the first quarter 2021, and an increase of $130.5 million from $93.3 million for the second quarter 2020. Earnings per share was $2.17, or $2.29 per share after adjusting for acquisition and restructure expenses, for the second quarter 2021, compared to $1.90 for the first quarter 2021, and $0.93 for the second quarter 2020. As discussed above, the increase in net income and earnings per share for the second quarter 2021 compared to the same quarter last year was driven by a release in the provision for credit losses coupled with new activity related to the AmeriHome acquisition.

The Company views its pre-provision net revenue¹ ("PPNR") as a key metric for assessing the Company’s earnings power, which it defines as net revenue less non-interest expense, adjusted for acquisition and restructure expenses. For the second quarter 2021, the Company’s PPNR¹ was $277.4 million, up $75.0 million from $202.4 million in the first quarter 2021, and up $72.5 million from $204.9 million in the second quarter 2020. The increase in PPNR from the first quarter 2021 and second quarter 2020 was driven by the AmeriHome acquisition completed on April 7, 2021, as the increase to net revenue was larger than the increase in adjusted non-interest expense¹.

The Company had 3,075 full-time equivalent employees and 53 offices at June 30, 2021, compared to 1,947 employees and 49 offices at March 31, 2021, and 1,851 employees and 47 offices at June 30, 2020. The increase in employees from March 31, 2021 primarily relates to the addition of AmeriHome employees.

Balance Sheet

Gross HFI loans totaled $30.0 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.3 billion from $28.7 billion at March 31, 2021, and an increase of $5.0 billion from $25.0 billion at June 30, 2020. The increase in HFI loans from the prior quarter is primarily attributable to an increase of $2.0 billion in residential real estate loans, offset in part by a decrease of $786 million in commercial and industrial loans. From June 30, 2020, the largest increases in the loan balance were driven by residential real estate loans of $2.7 billion, commercial and industrial loans of $1.5 billion (includes $865 million of PPP loans), construction and land development loans of $659 million, and CRE non-owner occupied loans of $351 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in CRE owner occupied loans of $229 million. The Company's allowance for credit losses on HFI loans consists of an allowance for funded HFI loans and an allowance for unfunded loan commitments. At June 30, 2021, the allowance for loan losses to funded HFI loans was 0.78%, compared to 0.86% at March 31, 2021, and 1.24% at June 30, 2020. The allowance for credit losses, which includes the allowance for unfunded loan commitments, to funded HFI loans was 0.88% at June 30, 2021, compared to 0.97% at March 31, 2021, and 1.39% at June 30, 2020.

Deposits totaled $41.9 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $3.5 billion from $38.4 billion at March 31, 2021, and an increase of $14.4 billion from $27.5 billion at June 30, 2020. By deposit type, the increases from the prior quarter include $2.6 billion from non-interest bearing demand deposits, $534 million from savings and money market accounts, $294 million from interest bearing demand deposits, and $137 million from certificates of deposit. From June 30, 2020, deposits increased across most deposit types, with increases in non-interest bearing demand deposits of $7.9 billion, savings and money market accounts of $6.0 billion, and interest-bearing demand deposits of $680 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in certificates of deposit of $160 million. Non-interest bearing deposits were $20.1 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $17.5 billion at March 31, 2021, and $12.2 billion at June 30, 2020.

The table below shows the Company's deposit types as a percentage of total deposits:

	Jun 30, 2021		Mar 31, 2021		Jun 30, 2020
Non-interest bearing	48.0	%	45.7	%	44.4	%
Savings and money market	37.7		39.8		35.7
Interest-bearing demand	10.0		10.1		12.7
Certificates of deposit	4.3		4.4		7.2

The Company’s ratio of loans to deposits was 71.6% at June 30, 2021, compared to 74.8% at March 31, 2021, and 90.8% at June 30, 2020.

Borrowings were $595 million at June 30, 2021, $5 million at March 31, 2021, and $10 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in borrowings from June 30, 2020 is due to the assumption of borrowings related to the acquisition of AmeriHome, coupled with the issuance of $242 million in credit linked notes during the second quarter 2021.

Qualifying debt totaled $1.1 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $544 million at March 31, 2021, and $618 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in qualifying debt from March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020 is primarily related to the issuance of $600 million in subordinated debt in June 2021.

Stockholders’ equity was $4.0 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $3.7 billion at March 31, 2021, and $3.1 billion at June 30, 2020. The increase in stockholders' equity from March 31, 2021 is attributable to net income and net proceeds of $70.0 million from the sale of the Company's common stock under its ATM program, partially offset by dividends to shareholders. During the quarter, the Company sold 0.7 million shares of its common stock for a purchase price of $100.59 per share, with aggregate net proceeds totaling $70.0 million. In addition, a cash dividend of $0.25 per share was paid to shareholders on May 28, 2021, totaling $25.9 million. The increase in stockholders' equity from June 30, 2020 is primarily a function of net income and sales of common stock in a direct stock offering and under the Company's ATM program, partially offset by share repurchases and dividends to shareholders. The Company sold 2.3 million shares of its common stock in a registered direct offering during the first quarter 2021, for aggregate net proceeds of $209.2 million.

At June 30, 2021, tangible common equity, net of tax, was 7.1% of tangible assets¹ and total capital was 12.8% of risk-weighted assets. The Company’s tangible book value per share¹ was $32.86 at June 30, 2021, up 18.0% from June 30, 2020.

Total assets increased 13.1% to $49.1 billion at June 30, 2021, from $43.4 billion at March 31, 2021, and increased 53.8% from $31.9 billion at June 30, 2020. The increase in total assets from the prior quarter and prior year was driven by the acquisition of net assets in the AmeriHome acquisition as well as continued organic loan and deposit growth.

Asset Quality

Recovery of credit provisions totaled $(14.5) million for the second quarter 2021, compared to $(32.4) million for the first quarter 2021, and a provision for credit losses of $92.0 million for the second quarter 2020. Net loan charge-offs in the second quarter 2021 were $0.1 million, or approximately 0.00% of average loans (annualized), compared to $1.4 million, or 0.02%, in the first quarter 2021, and $5.5 million, or 0.09%, in the second quarter 2020.

Nonaccrual loans decreased $17.3 million to $96.3 million during the quarter and decreased $43.4 million from June 30, 2020. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest were zero at June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2020. Loans past due 30-89 days and still accruing interest totaled $9.8 million at June 30, 2021, an increase from $7.3 million at March 31, 2021, and from $9.3 million at June 30, 2020.

Repossessed assets totaled $3.9 million at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $0.3 million from $4.2 million at March 31, 2021, and a decrease of $5.5 million from $9.4 million at June 30, 2020. Classified assets totaled $238.5 million at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $42.4 million from $280.9 million at March 31, 2021, and a decrease of $60.0 million from $298.5 million at June 30, 2020.

The ratio of classified assets to Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for credit losses, a common regulatory measure of asset quality, was 6.4% at June 30, 2021, compared to 7.5% at March 31, 2021, and 9.5% at June 30, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Footnotes
(1)	We believe this non-GAAP measurement is a key indicator of the earnings power of the Company.
(2)	We believe this non-GAAP ratio provides a useful metric to measure the efficiency of the Company.
(3)	We believe this non-GAAP metric provides an important metric with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength. In addition, we believe that use of tangible equity and tangible assets improves the comparability to other institutions that have not engaged in acquisitions that resulted in recorded goodwill and other intangibles.
