First BanCorp. Announces Partial Reversal of Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance and Revises Earnings for the Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2014
Business Wire - Thu Mar 12, 5:17PM CDT
First BanCorp. (the "Corporation" (NYSE:FBP), the bank holding company for FirstBank Puerto Rico ("FirstBank" or "the Bank", today announced the reversal of a significant portion of the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets of its subsidiary bank, FirstBank. The reversal results in the recognition of a one-time income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2014 of approximately $302.9 million, or $1.42 per diluted share. The Corporation's February 2015 earnings release noted the continuing evaluation of FirstBank's deferred tax asset valuation allowance. The Corporation has now concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, it is more likely than not that FirstBank will generate sufficient taxable income within the applicable net operating loss carry-forward periods to realize a significant portion of its deferred tax assets. This conclusion, and the resulting partial reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, is based upon consideration of a number of factors, including FirstBank's (i) completion of a sixth consecutive quarter of profitability and (ii) forecast of future profitability, under several potential scenarios where the Corporation has assigned more weight to its continued profitability than potential future growth which it is planning to achieve. As a result of the partial reversal, the Corporation's deferred tax asset amounted to $313.0 million as of December 31, 2014, net of a valuation allowance of $204.6 million. As more objective information on the Bank's planned growth and/or increased profitability becomes available, additional reversals of valuation allowance may be necessary. The ability to recognize the remaining deferred tax assets that continue to be subject to a valuation allowance will be evaluated on a quarterly basis to determine if there are any significant events that would affect FirstBank's ability to utilize these deferred tax assets.
