PROVIDENT FINANCIAL HOLDINGS REPORTS
FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2011 EARNINGS


Net Income Increases 42% (Sequential Quarter)

Gain on Sale of Loans Increases 108% (Sequential Quarter)

Core Deposits (Transaction Accounts) Increase by 22%

Net Interest Margin Expands 26 Basis Points

Non-Performing Assets Stabilize at Lower Level

Riverside, Calif. – October 27, 2010 – Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Company”), NASDAQ GS: PROV, the holding company for Provident Savings Bank, F.S.B. (“Bank”), today announced first quarter earnings for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011.
            For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company reported net income of $4.53 million, or $0.40 per diluted share (on 11.36 million average shares outstanding), compared to a net loss of $(5.02) million, or $(0.82) per diluted share (on 6.11 million average shares outstanding), in the comparable period a year ago.  The first quarter of fiscal 2011 net income was primarily attributable to a substantial decrease in the provision for loan losses and an increase in non-interest income, partly offset by a decrease in net interest income (before provision for loan losses) and an increase in operating expenses as compared to the same period last year.

“We are very pleased with the improving fundamentals of our businesses and lower levels of non-performing assets.  However, we must remain cautious as it is too soon to suggest the end of the challenging economic environment,” said Craig G. Blunden, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  “The current mortgage banking environment is favorable and we continue to capture sizable mortgage banking loan origination volume.  In fact, the current quarter is the best in our 54-year history.”
      As of September 30, 2010 the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and was deemed “well-capitalized” with Tangible Capital, Core Capital, Total Risk-Based Capital and Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratios of 9.25 percent, 9.25 percent, 13.96 percent and 12.69 percent, respectively.  As of June 30, 2010 these ratios were 8.82 percent, 8.82 percent, 13.17 percent and 11.91 percent, respectively.  For each period, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the minimum required ratios to be deemed “well-capitalized” (5.00 percent for Core Capital, 10.00 percent for Total Risk-Based Capital and 6.00 percent for Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital).
Return on average assets for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 improved to 1.29 percent from negative (1.28) percent for the same period of fiscal 2010.  Return on average stockholders’ equity for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 improved to 13.93 percent from negative (17.68) percent for the comparable period of fiscal 2010.
On a sequential quarter basis, first quarter results reflect net income of $4.53 million, a 42 percent increase from $3.20 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.  The increase was primarily attributable to a $4.92 million increase in the gain on sale of loans, partly offset by an $877,000 increase in the provision for loan losses and an $846,000

increase in compensation expense.  Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 increased to $0.40 per share from $0.28 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.  Return on average assets increased to 1.29 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from 0.92 percent in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010; and return on average equity for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was 13.93 percent, compared to 10.16 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased $294,000, or three percent, to $9.81 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $10.11 million for the same period in fiscal 2010.  Non-interest income increased $3.33 million, or 48 percent, to $10.34 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $7.01 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2010.  Operating expense increased $2.66 million, or 31 percent, to $11.21 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $8.55 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2010.  The increase in both non-interest income and operating expenses relate to the increase in mortgage banking loan production.
The average balance of loans outstanding decreased by $119.4 million, or nine percent, to $1.17 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $1.28 billion in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The managed decline in the loan balance was consistent with the Company’s short-term strategy of curtailing loan portfolio growth to further its goals of maintaining prudent capital ratios, reducing its credit risk profile in response to unfavorable economic conditions and providing sufficient balance sheet capacity for its mortgage banking operations.  The average yield on loans receivable decreased by 31 basis points to 5.34 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from an average yield of 5.65 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The decrease in the average loan yield
 

Page 3 of 19
 
 
was primarily attributable to payoffs of loans which had a higher yield than the average yield of loans held for investment and adjustable rate loans re-pricing to lower interest rates.  Total loans originated for investment in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $579,000, consisting of multi-family and commercial real estate loans.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 total loans originated for investment were $105,000, which consisted of single-family loans.  The outstanding balance of “preferred loans” (multi-family, commercial real estate, construction and commercial business loans) decreased by $43.5 million, or nine percent, to $447.8 million at September 30, 2010 from $491.3 million at September 30, 2009.  Outstanding construction loans, net of undisbursed loan funds, declined $3.9 million, or 91 percent, to $400,000 at September 30, 2010 from $4.3 million at September 30, 2009.  The percentage of preferred loans to total loans held for investment at September 30, 2010 increased to 44 percent from 42 percent at September 30, 2009.  Loan principal payments received in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $28.1 million, compared to $33.3 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010. In addition, real estate acquired in the settlement of loans (real estate owned) in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 totaled $15.0 million, compared to $11.8 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.
The average balance of investment securities decreased by $69.1 million, or 67 percent, to $33.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $103.0 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The decrease was attributable primarily to the sale of investment securities in fiscal 2010 and principal paydowns of mortgage-backed securities.  The average yield decreased 141 basis points to 2.84 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from 4.25 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The decline in average yield was primarily attributable to the downward repricing of adjustable rate
 

Page 4 of 19
 
 
mortgage-backed securities, principal paydowns of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities and the sale of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities.
In July 2010, the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) – San Francisco announced a partial redemption of excess capital stock held by member banks.  As a result, a total of $1.2 million of excess capital stock was redeemed in August 2010.  Also in July 2010, the FHLB – San Francisco declared a cash dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2010; the $36,000 cash dividend was received by the Bank in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
The average balance of excess liquidity, primarily cash with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, increased to $100.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $84.2 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The Bank maintained higher levels of cash and cash equivalents in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 in response to the uncertain operating environment.  The average yield earned on interest-earning deposits was 0.25% in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, much lower than the yield that could have been earned if the excess liquidity were deployed in loans or investment securities.
Average deposits decreased to $937.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $977.5 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The average cost of deposits decreased by 73 basis points to 1.20 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from 1.93 percent in the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher costing time deposits repricing to lower interest rates and a reduction in rates paid on core deposits.  Transaction account balances (core deposits) increased by $82.4 million, or 22 percent, to $458.8 million at September 30, 2010 from $376.4 million at September 30, 2009, primarily attributable to an increase in interest-bearing checking and savings account

balances.  Time deposits decreased by $82.1 million, or 15 percent, to $473.4 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $555.5 million at September 30, 2009.
The average balance of borrowings, which consisted of FHLB – San Francisco advances, decreased $145.1 million, or 32 percent, to $309.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 while the average cost of advances increased 25 basis points to 4.19 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to an average balance of $454.3 million and an average cost of 3.94 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.  The decrease in borrowings was attributable to prepayments and scheduled maturities, one of the results of the Bank’s efforts to deleverage its balance sheet during fiscal 2010.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, $15.0 million of advances were prepaid requiring an $87,000 prepayment fee.
The net interest margin during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 improved 26 basis points to 2.95 percent from 2.69 percent during the same quarter last year.  The increase in the net interest margin was primarily attributable to the decrease in deposit costs, particularly time deposit costs, partly offset by a lower average yield on loans and investment securities, a higher level of excess liquidity invested at a nominal yield and a higher average cost of borrowings.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $877,000, compared to the $17.21 million provision for loan losses recorded during the same period of fiscal 2010 and no provision recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 (sequential quarter).  Improving asset quality trends during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 resulted in a lower balance of non-performing loans and 30 to 89 day delinquent loans.

Non-performing assets, with underlying collateral primarily located in Southern California, decreased to $72.7 million, or 5.23 percent of total assets, at September 30, 2010, compared to $98.2 million, or 6.64 percent of total assets, at September 30, 2009 and $73.5 million, or 5.25 percent of total assets, at June 30, 2010 (sequential quarter).  Non-performing loans at September 30, 2010 were primarily comprised of 155 single-family loans ($47.9 million); six multi-family loans ($6.1 million); five commercial real estate loans ($1.4 million); one construction loan ($250,000); and two commercial business loans ($180,000).  Real estate owned was comprised of 56 single-family properties ($15.1 million), one multi-family property ($986,000), one commercial real estate property ($377,000), one developed lot ($399,000) and 25 undeveloped lots acquired in the settlement of loans ($78,000).  Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 were $5.29 million or 1.82 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable, compared to $4.64 million or 1.44 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 and $7.35 million or 2.49 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (sequential quarter).
Classified assets at September 30, 2010 were $94.1 million, comprised of $18.9 million in the special mention category, $58.3 million in the substandard category and $16.9 million in real estate owned.  Classified assets at September 30, 2009 were $121.7 million, comprised of $22.1 million in the special mention category, $86.9 million in the substandard category and $12.7 million in real estate owned.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, 21 loans for $9.4 million were re-underwritten and modified from their original terms, and were identified as restructured
 

Page 7 of 19
 
loans.  As of September 30, 2010, the outstanding balance of restructured loans was $47.3 million:  42 loans are classified as pass, are not included in the classified asset totals described earlier and remain on accrual status ($18.2 million); five loans are classified as special mention and remain on accrual status ($3.6 million); 64 loans are classified as substandard ($25.5 million, with 63 of the 64 loans or $25.0 million on non-accrual status); and two loans are classified as loss, fully reserved and on non-accrual status.  As of September 30, 2010, 81 percent, or $38.5 million of the restructured loans are current with respect to their payment status.
The allowance for loan losses was $39.1 million at September 30, 2010, or 3.88 percent of gross loans held for investment, compared to $58.0 million, or 4.97 percent of gross loans held for investment at September 30, 2009.  The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2010 includes $14.9 million of specific loan loss reserves and $24.2 million of general loan loss reserves, compared to $28.9 million of specific loan loss reserves and $29.1 million of general loan loss reserves at September 30, 2009.  Management believes that, based on currently available information, the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb potential losses inherent in loans held for investment.
Non-interest income increased to $10.34 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $7.01 million in the same period of fiscal 2010, primarily the result of a $6.31 million increase in the gain on sale of loans, partly offset by a $1.95 million gain on sale of investment securities which was realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and not replicated in the same quarter of fiscal 2011.
The gain on sale of loans increased to $9.45 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 from $3.14 million in the comparable quarter last year, reflecting a
 

Page 8 of 19
 
 
higher average loan sale margin and a higher loan sale volume.  The average loan sale margin for mortgage banking was 142 basis points for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, compared to 59 basis points in the comparable quarter last year.  The gain on sale of loans includes a favorable fair-value adjustment on loans held for sale and derivative financial instruments (commitments to extend credit, commitments to sell loans, commitments to sell mortgage-backed securities, and put option contracts) that amounted to a gain of $3.36 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to an unfavorable fair-value adjustment, a loss of $(891,000), in the same period last year.  The gain on sale of loans for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was partially reduced by a $536,000 recourse provision on loans sold that are subject to repurchase, compared to a $1.19 million recourse provision in the comparable quarter last year.  As of September 30, 2010, the recourse reserve for loans sold that are subject to repurchase was $6.5 million, compared to $4.5 million at September 30, 2009 and $6.3 million at June 30, 2010 (sequential quarter).  The mortgage banking environment has shown improvement as a result of relatively low mortgage interest rates but remains volatile.
The volume of loans originated for sale was $649.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, an increase of 32 percent from $491.6 million for the same period last year.  The loan origination volumes were the result of favorable liquidity in the secondary mortgage markets particularly in FHA/VA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loan products and relatively low mortgage interest rates.  Total loans sold for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 were $590.8 million, an increase of 16 percent from $508.8 million for the same quarter last year.  Total loan originations (including loans originated for
 

Page 9 of 19
 
 
investment and loans originated for sale) were $650.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, an increase of 32 percent from $491.7 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2010.
The sale and operations of real estate owned acquired in the settlement of loans resulted in a net loss of $(368,000) in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, as compared to a net gain of $438,000 in the comparable period last year.  Twenty-seven real estate owned properties were sold in the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to 48 real estate owned properties sold in the same quarter last year.  During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, 34 real estate owned properties were acquired in the settlement of loans, compared to 32 real estate owned properties acquired in the settlement of loans in the comparable period last year.  As of September 30, 2010, the real estate owned balance was $16.9 million (84 properties), compared to $14.7 million (77 properties) at June 30, 2010 and $12.7 million (64 properties) at September 30, 2009.
Operating expense increased to $11.21 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $8.55 million in the same quarter last year, primarily as a result of an increase in compensation expense related to higher mortgage banking loan production.
The Company’s efficiency ratio increased to 56 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from 50 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.  The increase was the result of a decrease in net interest income (before provision for loan losses) and an increase in non-interest expense, partly offset by an increase in non-interest income.
The Company’s tax provision was $3.53 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 in comparison to a tax benefit of $(3.63) million in the same quarter last year.  The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was 43.8 percent as compared to 42.0 percent in the same quarter last year.  The increase in the effective
 

Page 10 of 19
 
 
income tax rate was primarily the result of a higher percentage of permanent tax differences relative to income or loss before taxes.  The Company believes that the tax provision recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 reflects its current income tax obligations.
The Bank currently operates 14 retail/business banking offices in Riverside County and San Bernardino County (Inland Empire).  Provident Bank Mortgage operates wholesale loan production offices in Pleasanton and Rancho Cucamonga, California and retail loan production offices in City of Industry, Escondido, Glendora, Rancho Cucamonga and Riverside (3), California.
