Continued Franchise Development
Strong Loan Originations
Loan originations were $7.3 billion for the quarter, compared to $5.6 billion for the same quarter a year ago, an increase of 29.9%, primarily due to increases in business lending, multifamily and construction loans.
Loans, excluding loans held for sale, totaled $65.2 billion at March 31, 2018, up 20.9% compared to a year ago. The increase was primarily due to growth in single family, multifamily and business loans.
Deposit Growth
Total deposits increased to $71.3 billion, up 16.4% compared to a year ago.
At March 31, 2018, checking accounts totaled 62.2% of deposits.
The average rate paid on deposits was 0.30% during the quarter, compared to 0.28% for the prior quarter.
Investments
Total investment securities at March 31, 2018 were $16.5 billion, down 11.0% for the quarter and up 3.6% compared to a year ago.
High-quality liquid assets, including eligible cash, totaled $11.1 billion at March 31, 2018, and represented 12.8% of average total assets.
During the first quarter, the Bank performed a repositioning of its investment portfolio and sold certain intermediate and long-term, fixed-rate investment securities totaling $2.2 billion, and recognized a gain on sale of $10.7 million.
Mortgage Banking Activity
During the first quarter, the Bank sold $161.4 million of loans and recorded a gain on sale of $689,000, compared to loan sales of $645.8 million and a gain of $3.4 million during the first quarter of last year.
Loans serviced for investors at quarter-end totaled $12.2 billion, up 3.0% from a year ago.
Continued Expansion of Wealth Management
Wealth management revenues totaled $99.5 million for the quarter, up 27.6% compared to last year’s first quarter. Such revenues represented 13.8% of the Bank’s total revenues for the quarter.
Total wealth management assets were $113.0 billion at March 31, 2018, up 5.6% for the quarter and up 25.4% compared to a year ago. The growth in wealth management assets for the quarter was due to client inflows. The year-over-year growth was due to both net new assets from existing and new clients, and market appreciation.
Wealth management assets included investment management assets of $55.1 billion, brokerage assets and money market mutual funds of $48.3 billion, and trust and custody assets of $9.6 billion.
Income Statement and Key Ratios
Strong Revenue Growth
Total revenues were $720.9 million for the quarter, up 19.9% compared to the first quarter a year ago.
Strong Net Interest Income Growth
Net interest income was $587.8 million for the quarter, up 17.6% compared to the first quarter a year ago. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from growth in average earning assets.
Net Interest Margin
The net interest margin was 2.97% for the first quarter. Such net interest margin reflects the new computation of tax-equivalent yields, which were slightly reduced following the enactment of tax reform legislation (the “Tax Reform Act”) in December 2017.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $133.1 million for the quarter, up 31.2% compared to the first quarter a year ago. The increase was primarily from growth in wealth management revenues and gain on sale of investments related to the previously discussed repositioning of the Bank’s investment portfolio.
Noninterest Expense and Efficiency Ratio
Noninterest expense was $461.6 million for the quarter, up 21.9% compared to the first quarter a year ago. The efficiency ratio was 64.0% for the quarter, compared to 63.0% for the first quarter a year ago. The increases were primarily due to increased salaries and benefits, information systems and other costs from the continued investments in the expansion of the franchise.
Income Taxes
Beginning in 2018, the Tax Reform Act reduced the federal tax rate for corporations from 35% to 21% and changes or limits certain tax deductions.
The Bank’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2018 was 19.2%, which reflects the new federal tax rate, along with changes in tax deductions.

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements in this press release that are not historical facts are hereby identified as “forward-looking statements” for the purpose of the safe harbor provided by Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimates,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words or phrases. Accordingly, these statements are only predictions and involve estimates, known and unknown risks, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: significant competition to attract and retain banking and wealth management customers, from both traditional and non-traditional financial services and technology companies; our ability to recruit and retain key managers, employees and board members; the possibility of earthquakes, fires and other natural disasters affecting the markets in which we operate; interest rate risk and credit risk; our ability to maintain and follow high underwriting standards; economic and market conditions affecting the valuation of our investment securities portfolio, which could result in other-than-temporary impairment if the general economy deteriorates, credit ratings decline, the financial condition of issuers deteriorates, interest rates increase or the liquidity for securities is limited; real estate prices generally and in our markets; our geographic and product concentrations; demand for our products and services; the regulatory environment in which we operate, our regulatory compliance and future regulatory requirements; the impact of tax reform legislation; the phase-in of the final capital rules regarding the Basel III framework, changes to the definitions and components of regulatory capital and a new approach for risk-weighted assets; legislative and regulatory actions affecting us and the financial services industry, such as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, including increased compliance costs, limitations on activities and requirements to hold additional capital; our ability to avoid litigation and its associated costs and liabilities; the impact of new accounting standards; future Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) special assessments or changes to regular assessments; fraud, cybersecurity and privacy risks; and custom technology preferences of our customers and our ability to successfully execute on initiatives relating to enhancements of our technology infrastructure, including client-facing systems and applications.
