Private Bancorp of America, Inc. Announces Continued Strong Growth

LA JOLLA, Calif., Oct. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Private Bancorp of America, Inc. (OTCQX:PBAM)

Private Bancorp of America (“Bancorp”), parent company of San Diego Private Bank (“Bank”), announced quarterly earnings of $1,164,308 in the third quarter of 2017, compared to $1,024,774 in the second quarter 2017 and $1,076,420 for the third quarter 2016.  Net Interest Income continues to increase, $5,742,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $4,792,000 for the same period in 2016.  Net Interest Income grew to $16,425,000 for the nine months ending September 2017 compared to $14,027,000 for the same period in 2016 (up 17.1%), reflecting the growth in earning assets.  The major factor contributing to the increase in year-over-year expenses for the nine months is the cost associated with opening the new Beverly Hills location, roughly $557,000 year to date. The decrease in Other Income reflects a reduction of SBA Loan sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

The balance sheet reflects continued record organic growth.  Total assets at September 30, 2017 were $590 million compared to $498 million at September 30, 2016 (18.6% increase year over year) and $545 million at December 31, 2016 (8.1% increase for the nine months).  Net Loans increased 14% year over year at September 30, 2017 to $446 million, and increased 3% for the nine months from December 31, 2016.  Total Deposits increased during the quarter to $448 million at September 30, 2017, up over 19%.

“We are very proud of team members who have worked diligently to both expand our product offerings in our traditional footprint and successfully open our new Beverly Hills location.  We believe that the enhanced geographic platform, compliance and product investments we have made will continue to serve our customers and our shareholders well,” said Thomas V. Wornham, President and CEO.  “Our Beverly Hills investment is already paying off; we opened in July and the team is producing outstanding results.  Our credit quality remains strong as do all of our key leverage, capital and asset quality ratios.”

Bancorp Chairman Selwyn Isakow commented, “We are pleased with the growth of the Bank and the positive revenue trends we see in the Bancorp.  We are delighted to have successfully opened Beverly Hills as a part of our Southern California Coastal strategy.   Our Directors, Management and Employees remain committed to providing creative solutions for our clients while providing superior service to the individuals, families and companies we serve.”
