Nara Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: NARA), the holding company of Nara Bank (the "Bank"), reported net income available to common stockholders of $5.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2011, compared to net loss available to common stockholders of ($17.0) million, or ($0.45) per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2010, and net income available to common stockholders of $5.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share, for the first quarter 2011.
Alvin Kang, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We executed well on a number of key initiatives during the second quarter, which resulted in solid financial results. Our continued emphasis on building our commercial lending presence helped drive our highest level of loan production in six quarters, while also generating strong growth in core deposits from new commercial relationships. Our strong capital position also enabled us to accelerate our disposition of problem assets, which substantially improved our asset quality metrics. Non-performing assets to total assets declined to 1.87% from 2.70% at the prior quarter-end. We believe we can continue generating prudent balance sheet growth and making further improvement in our asset quality, which should enable us to continue being solidly profitable."

Operating Results for Second Quarter 2011
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin. Second quarter 2011 net interest income before provision for loan losses was $29.3 million, an increase of 9% from second quarter 2010. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an improvement in the net interest margin.
Second quarter 2011 net interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets) increased 30 basis points to 4.16% from 3.86% for second quarter 2010. The improvement in the net interest margin was primarily due to lower rates paid on time deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits. The cost of time deposits decreased to 1.20% for second quarter 2011 from 1.49% for second quarter 2010. The cost of interest-bearing demand deposits also decreased to 0.87% for second quarter 2011 from 1.08% for second quarter 2010.
The weighted average yield on the loan portfolio for second quarter 2011 decreased 10 basis points to 6.07% from 6.17% for the same period last year. At June 30, 2011, fixed rate loans were 45% of the loan portfolio, compared to 51% at June 30, 2010, reflecting the emphasis on variable rate C&I lending. The weighted average yield on the variable rate and fixed rate loan portfolios (excluding loan discount accretion) at June 30, 2011 was 4.91% and 7.06%, respectively, compared to 4.76% and 7.19% at June 30, 2010.
The weighted average yield on securities available-for-sale for second quarter 2011 increased 65 basis points to 3.16% from 2.51% for the same period 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to a higher level of premium amortization for FNMA and FHLMC mortgage related securities in second quarter 2010. The higher level of premium amortization was due to accelerated prepayments resulting from the buyouts of seriously delinquent mortgage loans from the special purpose entities of FNMA and FHLMC.
The weighted average cost of deposits for second quarter 2011 decreased 26 basis points to 0.93% from 1.19% for the same period last year, driven primarily by the decrease in the cost of time deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits and the increase in the average balance of non-interest bearing demand deposits.
The weighted average cost of FHLB advances for second quarter 2011 decreased 19 basis points to 3.23% for second quarter 2011, compared to 3.42% for second quarter 2010, as maturing advances with higher rates were paid in full or refinanced at lower rates.
Following are the weighted average rate data on a spot rate basis at June 30, 2011 and 2010:
 |  | June 30, | ||
 |  | 2011 |  | 2010 |
Weighted average loan portfolio yield (excluding discounts) | Â | 5.89% | Â | 5.99% |
Weighted average available-for-sale securities portfolio yield | Â | 3.29% | Â | 2.93% |
Weighted average cost of deposits | Â | 0.89% | Â | 1.07% |
Weighted average cost of total interest-bearing deposits | Â | 1.11% | Â | 1.28% |
Weighted average cost of FHLB advances | Â | 3.19% | Â | 3.42% |
Net interest margin | Â | 4.05% | Â | 3.83% |
Second quarter 2011 net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $448 thousand, or 2%, from first quarter 2011. The increase was attributable to an improvement in the net interest margin, which increased 3 basis points. This was offset by a slight decrease of $6.5 million in average net interest earning assets from first quarter 2011. The increase in net interest margin resulted primarily from an increase in yield on securities available-for-sale and a reduction in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.
Non-interest Income. Second quarter 2011 non-interest income was $7.7 million, an increase of $4.2 million, or 122%, compared to second quarter 2010. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $4.0 million in net gains on sales of SBA loans. Net gains on sale of SBA loans were $4.4 million for second quarter 2011, an increase of $4.0 million from $329 thousand for the same quarter of 2010. The increase reflected higher levels of SBA loan production and sales. Of the net gains of $4.4 million, $1.5 million was due to recognition of deferred gains from sales of $15.3 million in SBA loans during first quarter 2011, and $2.9 million was from sales of $31.7 million in SBA loans during second quarter of 2011.
Non-interest income increased $3.2 million, or 70%, from first quarter 2011. The increase was primarily due to the increase of $3.2 million in the net gains on sale of SBA loans.
Non-interest Expense. Second quarter 2011 non-interest expense was $16.9 million, an increase of $919 thousand, or 6%, from $16.0 million for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits expense, partially offset by a decrease in credit related expense.
Salaries and benefits expense increased $1.6 million, or 28%, to $7.6 million for second quarter 2011, compared to $6.0 million for the same quarter of 2010. The increase is due to an increase in the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees, which increased to 369 at June 30, 2011 from 347 at June 30, 2010, an increase of $546 thousand in vacation and bonus accrual, an increase of $146 thousand in group insurance expense due to the increase in premium costs, and an increase of $141 thousand in 401(k) plan contributions, as the Company reinstated the company matching program effective January 1, 2011. The year-over-year increase in FTE employees was due to a number of factors including the opening of two new branches in our Eastern Region, the addition of business development and servicing staff, and increasing our staffing in Information Technology and Risk Management.
Credit related expense decreased $738 thousand, or 42%, to $1.0 million for second quarter 2011, compared to $1.7 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to higher OREO valuation allowances in second quarter 2010.
Income Taxes. The effective income tax provision (benefit) rate was 37%, (43%) and 41% for second quarter 2011 and 2010 and first quarter 2011, respectively. The lower provision rate for the second quarter 2011 and higher benefit rate for the second quarter of 2010 was due to the impact of tax credits.
Balance Sheet Summary
Gross loans receivable increased $48.3 million to $2.20 billion at June 30, 2011 from $2.15 million at March 31, 2011. New loan production was $116.1 million during second quarter 2011, compared to $88.1 million during first quarter 2011, and $102.4 million during second quarter 2010. Total loan pay-offs, pay-downs, amortization and other adjustments totaled $67.8 million during second quarter 2011, compared to $81.7 million during first quarter 2011 and $139.0 million during second quarter 2010.
Total deposits increased $56.1 million to $2.23 billion at June 30, 2011 from $2.18 billion at March 31, 2011. The increase was driven by $30 million growth in non-interest bearing demand deposits and $22 million growth in money market accounts.
Credit Quality
The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $10.0 million in second quarter 2011, compared to $42.3 million for the same period of the prior year and $5.3 million in first quarter 2011. The larger provision for loan losses for second quarter 2011 compared to first quarter 2011 reflects an increase in problem loans sold at a discount in order to more quickly resolve problem loans.
During the second quarter 2011, the Company completed or entered into loan sale contracts totaling $25.6 million, compared to $2.7 million during the first quarter 2011. Loans totaling $10.5 million, against which the Company had a $2.8 million reserve, were sold in private transactions at a discount of 27% or $2.9 million. The remaining $15.1 million of loans, against which the Company had a $1.4 million reserve, were sold in a pool transaction at a discount of 52%, or $7.9 million. The larger discount on the loan pool sale was primarily due to diverse location, loan types and loan size. The Company determined that the sale of problem loans was a better alternative than holding such loans, which would have required a long workout period.
Total Watchlist loans, defined as Special Mention and Classified loans, were $137.1 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease from $168.5 million at March 31, 2011. Watchlist loans decreased $31.4 million primarily due to the sale of 21 loans totaling $23.9 million. Classified loans decreased to $121.7 million at June 30, 2011 from $147.2 million at March 31, 2011. Classified loans decreased $25.5 million primarily due to the sale of 16 loans totaling $18.2 million.
Total delinquent loans, 30 to 89 days past due, were $3.3 million at June 30, 2011, compared to $8.4 million at March 31, 2011. The decrease in early delinquencies was the result of $3.4 million in loans becoming current during the second quarter 2011.
Non-performing loans (loans past due 90 days or more and non-accrual loans) at June 30, 2011 were $35.4 million, or 1.62% of total loans, compared to $47.0 million, or 2.19% of total loans, at March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of 11 non-performing loans totaling $11.0 million. Non-Performing loans including accruing TDR were $51.2 million, or 2.34% of total loans, compared to $76.4 million, or 3.57% of total loans, at March 31, 2011.
Non-performing assets at June 30, 2011 were $55.6 million, or 1.87% of total assets, compared to $79.1 million, or 2.70% of total assets, at March 31, 2011. The $23.5 million decrease in non-performing assets was due to an $11.6 million net reduction in non-accrual loans ($11.0 million of which was attributable to the loan sales) and a $13.6 million net reduction in accruing TDRs ($7.2 million of which was attributable to the loan sales). These reductions were offset by a slight increase in OREO assets. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets was 107% at June 30, 2011, compared to 80% at March 31, 2011.
Net loan charge-offs during the second quarter 2011 were $13.7 million, or 2.50% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $4.2 million, or 0.78%, during the first quarter 2011. Charge-offs of $10.4 million resulted from the discounts on loans sold. Excluding the loan sales, the net charge-offs would have been $3.3 million with an average individual loan net charge-off of $73 thousand during the quarter. CRE and C&I loan charge-offs were 89.4% and 10.8%, respectively, of total charge-offs.
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2011 was $59.7 million, or 2.73% of gross loans receivable (excluding the guaranteed portion of delinquent SBA loans and loans held for sale), compared to $63.3 million, or 2.96%, at March 31, 2011. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans increased to 169% at June 30, 2011, compared to 135% at March 31, 2011.
Impaired loans (defined as loans for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible according to contractual terms) at June 30, 2011 were $76.2 million, a net decrease of $33.4 million from $109.6 million at March 31, 2011. This net decrease in impaired loans is primarily due to the sale of 16 impaired loans, totaling $18.2 million, and the return of eight loans totaling $10.0 million to non-impaired status. The return to non-impaired status was based on the review of current financial information and payment performance.
Specific reserves for impaired loans were $13.2 million, or 17.32% of the aggregate impaired loan amount at June 30, 2011, compared to $18.5 million, or 16.87%, at March 31, 2011. Excluding specific reserves for impaired loans, the allowance coverage on the remaining loan portfolio was 2.20% at June 30, 2011, compared to 2.21% at March 31, 2011.
Capital
At June 30, 2011, the Company continued to be in excess of the regulatory capital requirements to be classified as a "well-capitalized" institution. The Leverage Ratio was 13.32% at June 30, 2011, compared to 12.92% at March 31, 2011. The Tier 1 Risk-based Ratio was 16.42% at June 30, 2011, compared to 16.47% at March 31, 2011. The Total Risk-based Ratio was 17.69% at June 30, 2011, compared to 17.74% at March 31, 2011.
At June 30, 2011, tangible common equity represented 10.21% of tangible assets, compared to 10.08% of tangible assets at March 31, 2011. Tangible common equity per share was $7.94 at June 30, 2011, compared to $7.75 at March 31, 2011.
Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents common equity less goodwill and net other intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net other intangible assets. Management reviews tangible common equity to tangible assets in evaluating the Company's capital levels and has included this ratio in response to market participant interest in tangible common equity as a measure of capital. See the accompanying financial information for a reconciliation of the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets with stockholders' equity and total assets.
