PrivateBancorp Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2014 Earnings
Earnings per share of $0.47 for the fourth quarter 2014, up 9 percent from the fourth quarter 2013
Earnings per share of $1.94 for the full year 2014, up 24 percent from the prior year

CHICAGO, January 16, 2015 - PrivateBancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVTB) today reported net income of $37.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $33.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2013, and $40.5 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $153.1 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, compared to $122.9 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2013.

“Our 2014 results reflect the consistent execution and improving financial performance we expect from the bank we are building,” said Larry D. Richman, President and Chief Executive Officer, PrivateBancorp, Inc. “We grew loans, deposits and fee income as we built new client relationships and expanded services to existing clients. Operating profit increased 12 percent as we drove earning assets, increased revenue and improved asset quality year over year, while at the same time making important investments in our business. As a result, net income was up 25 percent compared to 2013, our sixth consecutive year of improving our bottom line results and strengthening our balance sheet.

“We are proud of our 2014 results. As we look into 2015, we believe we are well positioned with momentum to continue to build new relationships and serve our existing clients as they increase investment in their own businesses, to leverage the strengths of our experienced banking teams and to continue to create value for our shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter 2014 Highlights

Total loans increased to $11.9 billion at December 31, 2014, up 12 percent from a year ago and 3 percent from September 30, 2014. Average loans grew $1.3 billion from the fourth quarter 2013 and $382.6 million from the third quarter 2014.

Total deposits grew to $13.1 billion at December 31, 2014, up 9 percent from December 31, 2013, and 2 percent from September 30, 2014. Average deposits grew $1.2 billion from the fourth quarter 2013 and $789.5 million from the third quarter 2014.

Net interest margin was 3.07 percent, compared to 3.18 percent for the fourth quarter 2013 and 3.23 percent for the third quarter 2014. Excess liquidity and the net impact of the redemption of the trust preferred securities in the fourth quarter reduced net interest margin by a total of nine basis points compared to the third quarter. A lower level of loan fees and the impact of pricing compression on loan yields drove the remainder of the decline.

Provision for loan and covered loan losses was $4.1 million, compared to $4.5 million for the fourth quarter 2013 and $3.9 million for the third quarter 2014.

Net revenue was $148.2 million, consistent with the third quarter 2014 and up 9 percent from the fourth quarter 2013, reflecting continued growth in earning assets offset by the net impact of the trust preferred securities redemption.

Operating profit was $65.2 million, compared to $60.2 million for the fourth quarter 2013 and $70.4 million from the third quarter 2014. Compared to the third quarter 2014, a $2.0 million higher provision for growth in unfunded commitments and a one-time charge of $1.6 million related to an office relocation contributed to increased expenses in the current quarter.

Return on average common equity was 10.0 percent and return on average assets was 0.95 percent for the fourth quarter 2014. For the full year 2014, return on average common equity was 10.9 percent, up from 9.8 percent for 2013, and return on average assets was 1.04 percent, up from 0.90 percent for the prior year.

As of December 31, 2014, approximately $36 million in loans and $122 million in deposits related to retail and small business clients of the Norcross, Ga., branch were considered held-for-sale. The pending branch sale is expected to close early in the first quarter 2015 with an estimated gain on sale of approximately $0.03 to $0.04.

Operating Performance

Net interest income was $116.9 million for the fourth quarter 2014, an increase of 8 percent compared to the fourth quarter 2013, primarily due to growth in average loan balances of 12 percent. Compared to the third quarter 2014, net interest income was relatively unchanged, as average loan growth and interest savings of $1.7 million from the redemption of trust preferred securities in the fourth quarter were offset by $2.4 million in accelerated issuance costs recognized in conjunction with the redemption. The third quarter 2014 also included a one-time success fee, which contributed $900,000 to net interest income.

Net interest margin was 3.07 percent for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to 3.23 percent for the third quarter 2014 and 3.18 percent for the fourth quarter 2013. Excess liquidity negatively impacted net interest margin by seven basis points for the fourth quarter 2014. The interest savings from redemption of the trust preferred securities and the related accelerated issuance costs also reduced the fourth quarter 2014 margin by a net of two basis points. In addition, a decline in loan fees on a sequential basis, partially attributable to the one-time success fee in the previous quarter, impacted net interest margin. Competitive pricing pressures, primarily related to renewals, continue to pressure loan yields. Interest-bearing deposit costs remained steady from the third quarter 2014.

Noninterest income was $30.4 million for the fourth quarter 2014, up $3.7 million compared to the fourth quarter 2013 and down slightly compared to the third quarter 2014. Treasury management fees grew to $7.3 million in the fourth quarter 2014, up 15 percent from the fourth quarter 2013 and 5 percent from the third quarter 2014, largely due to new accounts, as well as higher volume from existing relationships. Syndication fees were $3.9 million, up $1.8 million compared to the fourth quarter 2013 and down $2.9 million compared to the third quarter 2014, as the fourth quarter has traditionally tended to be slower than the third quarter.

Capital markets revenue for the fourth quarter 2014 was comparable to the fourth quarter 2013 and up $2.5 million from the third quarter 2014. Excluding the impact of the credit valuation adjustment, capital markets revenue was $5.9 million for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $5.1 million for the fourth quarter 2013 and $2.8 million for the third quarter 2014, as the current quarter benefited from higher swap volume, which included several large transactions. Mortgage banking revenue of $3.1 million was up from $1.9 million for the fourth quarter 2013, reflecting a higher volume of mortgage loans sold during the current quarter.

Asset management revenue was $4.2 million in the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $4.6 million for the fourth quarter 2013 and $4.2 million for the third quarter 2014. The fourth quarter 2013 included fees generated by the investment management subsidiary sold at the end of 2013. Assets under management and administration were $6.6 billion as of December 31, 2014, compared to $5.7 billion a year ago and $6.5 billion at September 30, 2014.

Expenses

Noninterest expense was $83.0 million for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $75.8 million for the fourth quarter 2013 and $77.8 million for the third quarter 2014. The efficiency ratio was 56.0 percent for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to 55.7 percent for the fourth quarter 2013 and 52.5 percent for the third quarter 2014. Noninterest expense and the efficiency ratio were impacted by a higher provision for unfunded commitments and expense related to an office relocation in the fourth quarter 2014.

Other expenses increased $3.2 million compared to the fourth quarter 2013 and $3.7 million compared to the third quarter 2014. Growth in commercial and construction-related loan commitments primarily drove higher provision for unfunded commitments, which was up $1.5 million from the fourth quarter 2013 and $2.0 million from the third quarter 2014. Also included in other expenses for the fourth quarter 2014 was $1.6 million of office relocation costs related to the right-sizing of the Kansas City office space. Going forward, annual occupancy costs in this market are anticipated to be approximately $420,000 lower over the seven years remaining under the original lease.

Additional hires through the year and increased incentive compensation accruals tied to improved performance contributed to an increase in salary and employee benefits expense of 10 percent compared to the fourth quarter 2013. Net foreclosed property expense declined 60 percent compared to the fourth quarter 2013, primarily reflecting a lower amount of writedowns on foreclosed property (OREO).

Credit Quality

Nonperforming assets declined to 0.54 percent of total assets at December 31, 2014, compared to 0.87 percent at December 31, 2013, and 0.60 percent at September 30, 2014. At December 31, 2014, nonperforming loans were $67.5 million, down 28 percent from December 31, 2013, and 8 percent from September 30, 2014. OREO of $17.4 million at December 31, 2014, declined 39 percent from December 31, 2013, and was down slightly from September 30, 2014.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.28 percent at December 31, 2014, compared to 1.30 percent at September 30, 2014. The provision for loan losses was $4.0 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $3.7 million for the third quarter 2014. Net charge-offs were $1.6 million, compared to $88,000 for the third quarter 2014. General allocated reserves increased 4 percent on a sequential basis, primarily reflecting loan growth.

Credit quality results exclude $34.1 million of covered residential mortgage loans and related assets acquired through an FDIC-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss-sharing agreement.

Balance Sheet

Total assets were $15.6 billion at December 31, 2014, up compared to $14.1 billion at December 31, 2013, and $15.2 billion at September 30, 2014. Total loans of $11.9 billion were $1.2 billion, or 12 percent, higher than December 31, 2013, and grew $344.6 million, or 3 percent, from the previous quarter end. On a sequential basis, growth in commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans primarily drove the increase. During the fourth quarter 2014, $29.0 million of nonresidential mortgage loans were transferred to loans from covered assets due to the expiration of the related loss-sharing agreement. At December 31, 2014, $36.6 million of commercial credits funded in the fourth quarter were considered held-for-sale, as they are expected to be syndicated in the first quarter.

The Company's investment securities portfolio was $2.8 billion at December 31, 2014, up 10 percent from December 31, 2013, and 6 percent from September 30, 2014. Cash and cash equivalents were $424.6 million at December 31, 2014, compared to $440.1 million at December 31, 2013, and $597.3 million at September 30, 2014.

Total liabilities were $14.1 billion at December 31, 2014, up compared to $12.8 billion at December 31, 2013, and $13.8 billion compared to September 30, 2014. Total deposits were $13.1 billion at December 31, 2014, an increase of 9 percent from December 31, 2013, and 2 percent from September 30, 2014. Higher noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits drove much of the growth. The deposit balances of our commercial clients may fluctuate depending on their cash management and liquidity needs. Noninterest bearing demand deposits comprised 27 percent of total deposits at December 31, 2014, up slightly from December 31, 2013, and September 30, 2014. At December 31, 2014, the loan-to-deposit ratio was 91 percent, compared to 89 percent as of December 31, 2013, and 90 percent as of September 30, 2014.

Capital

As of December 31, 2014, the total risk-based capital ratio was 12.51 percent, the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 10.49 percent, and the leverage ratio was 9.96 percent. The Tier 1 common capital ratio was 9.33 percent (excluding the effect of the final Basel III capital rules that go into effect January 2015) and the tangible common equity ratio was 8.91 percent at the end of the fourth quarter 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements made in this press release that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Our ability to predict results or the actual effects of future plans, strategies or events is inherently uncertain. Factors which could cause actual results to differ from those reflected in forward-looking statements include:

continued uncertainty regarding U.S. and global economic outlook that may impact market conditions or affect demand for certain banking products and services;
unanticipated developments in pending or prospective loan transactions or greater-than-expected paydowns or payoffs of existing loans;
unanticipated changes in interest rates;
competitive pressures in the financial services industry that may affect the pricing of the Company’s loan and deposit products as well as its services;
unforeseen credit quality problems or changing economic conditions that could result in charge-offs greater than we have anticipated in our allowance for loan losses or changes in value of our investments;
lack of sufficient or cost-effective sources of liquidity or funding as and when needed;

4


loss of key personnel or an inability to recruit and retain appropriate talent;
greater-than-anticipated costs to support the growth of our business, including investments in technology, process improvements or other infrastructure enhancements, or to address compliance or regulatory burdens;
failures or disruptions to our data processing or other information or operational systems, including the potential impact of disruptions or breaches at our third-party service providers; or
unforeseen delays in completion of the sale of our Norcross, Georgia branch, changes in the amounts of deposits or loans to be sold at closing or greater-than-anticipated costs associated with the sale, any of which could affect the amount of the gain on sale of the branch.

These factors should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on our forward-looking statements. Readers should also consider the risks, assumptions and uncertainties set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, as well as those set forth in our subsequent periodic and current reports filed with the SEC. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we assume no obligation to update any of these statements in light of new information, future events or otherwise unless required under the federal securities laws.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains both financial measures based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) and non-U.S. GAAP based financial measures. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry. If non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found in this press release. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-U.S. GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

Refer to Glossary of Terms for definition.
(2) 
Participating stockholders are those that hold certain share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. Such shares or units are considered participating securities (i.e., the Company’s deferred stock units and certain restricted stock units and nonvested restricted stock awards).
(3) 
Earnings allocated to common stockholders for basic and diluted earnings per share may differ under the two-class method as a result of adding common stock equivalents for options to dilutive shares outstanding, which alters the ratio used to allocate earnings to common stockholders and participating securities for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share.

NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release contains both U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP based financial measures. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures include net interest income, net interest margin, net revenue, operating profit, and efficiency ratio all on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, return on average tangible common equity, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. We believe that presenting these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures will provide information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance, our business, and performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of others in the banking industry.

We use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating various performance measures by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments assuming a 35% tax rate. Management believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it enhances comparability to net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources, and accordingly believes that providing this measure may be useful for peer comparison purposes.

In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, we also consider various measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including return on average tangible common equity, Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible book value. These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators for both absolute and comparative purposes. All of these measures exclude the ending balances of goodwill and other intangibles while certain of these ratios exclude preferred capital components. Because U.S. GAAP does not include capital ratio measures, we believe there are no comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures to these ratios. We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are relevant because they provide information that is helpful in assessing the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows readers to compare certain aspects of our capitalization to other similar companies. However, because there are no standardized definitions for these ratios, our calculations may not be comparable with other companies, and this may affect the usefulness of these measures to investors. The Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets ratio contained herein is calculated without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules that are effective on January 1, 2015.

Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under U.S. GAAP. As a result, we encourage readers to consider our Consolidated Financial Statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Glossary of Terms

Assets under management and administration (“AUMA”) - Assets held in trust where we serve as trustee or in accounts where we make investment decisions on behalf of clients. AUMA also includes non-managed assets we hold in custody for clients or for which we receive fees for advisory or brokerage services. We do not include these assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Book value - Total common equity divided by outstanding shares of common stock at end of period.

Common equity - Total equity less preferred stock.

Covered assets - Assets acquired through an FDIC-assisted transaction that are subject to a loss share agreement and are presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Credit quality indicators - We have adopted an internal risk rating policy in which each loan is rated for credit quality with a numerical rating of 1 through 8. Loans rated 5 and better (1-5 ratings, inclusive) are credits that exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, and leverage. We attempt to mitigate risk by loan structure, collateral, monitoring, and other credit risk management controls. Credits rated 6 are performing in accordance with contractual terms but are considered "special mention" as these credits demonstrate potential weakness that if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in the Company’s credit position and/or the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity or other credit concerns. Loans rated 7 may be classified as either accruing ("potential problem") or nonaccrual ("nonperforming"). Potential problem loans, like special mention, are loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern (greater than that of special mention loans) about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. These loans continue to accrue interest but the ultimate collection of these loans in full is questionable due to the same conditions that characterize a 6-rated credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or the value of the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not resolved. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans and require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans risk rated 7 or 8 and have all the weaknesses inherent in a 7-rated potential problem loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently-existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Special mention, potential problem and nonperforming loans are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis, while all other rated credits over a certain dollar threshold, depending on loan type, are reviewed annually or more frequently as the circumstances warrant.

Credit valuation adjustment ("CVA") - An adjustment may need to be incorporated into the valuation of derivative instruments for nonperformance risk to include the counterparty’s credit risk and the Company’s own credit risk. This adjustment is referred to as the CVA. The CVA represents the credit component of fair value with regard to both client-based trades and the related matched trades with interbank dealer counterparties.

Efficiency ratio - Total non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis and non-interest income. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Fee revenue as percent of total revenue ratio - Total non-interest income less net securities gains (losses) divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income less net securities gains (losses).

U.S. GAAP - Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Net interest margin - Expressed as a percentage, net interest margin is a ratio computed as annualized taxable-equivalent net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. The annualization of net interest income for the quarterly yield takes into consideration the interest payment convention at the product level. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

25


Glossary of Terms (continued)

Net interest spread - The difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets on a taxable-equivalent basis and the average rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities.

Net overhead ratio - Total non-interest expense less non-interest income divided by average total assets.

Net revenue - The sum of taxable equivalent net interest income and non-interest income. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Non-U.S. GAAP - Certain financial measures within this document that are not formally defined by U.S. GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations. A reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures may be found on the previous pages.

Operating profit - The sum of U.S. GAAP income before income taxes, provision for loan and covered loan losses and taxable-equivalent adjustment. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Return on average tangible common equity - Annualized net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for tax-affected amortization of intangibles, divided by average tangible common equity. Average tangible common equity equals average total equity less average goodwill, average intangible assets, and average preferred stock. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Risk-weighted assets - Computed by the assignment of specific risk-weights (determined in accordance with the applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and does not give effect to the final Basel III capital rules that are effective on January 1, 2015) to assets and off-balance sheet instruments.

Tangible book value - Total common equity less goodwill and other intangibles divided by outstanding shares of common stock at end of period. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio - Tangible common equity divided by tangible assets, where tangible common equity equals total equity less preferred stock, goodwill and other intangible assets and tangible assets equals total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets. This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure.

Taxable-equivalent net interest income - The interest income earned on certain assets is completely or partially exempt from Federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of yields and margins for all interest-earning assets, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields and net interest margins by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on other taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under U.S. GAAP on the Consolidated Income Statement.

Tier 1 common capital - Tier 1 risk-based capital, less preferred equity, less trust preferred securities, and less noncontrolling interests, currently defined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules that are effective on January 1, 2015.

Tier 1 equity to risk-weighted assets ratio - Tier 1 common capital divided by period-end risk-weighted assets without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules that are effective on January 1, 2015.

Tier 1 leverage ratio - Tier 1 risk-based capital divided by adjusted average total assets.

Tier 1 risk-based capital - Total equity, plus trust preferred securities, plus certain noncontrolling interests that are held by others; less goodwill and certain other intangible assets, less equity investments in nonfinancial companies, less ineligible servicing assets, less disallowed deferred tax assets and less net unrealized holding gains (losses) on available-for-sale equity securities, available-for-sale debt securities, and cash flow hedge derivatives.

Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio - Tier 1 risk-based capital divided by period-end risk-weighted assets.

Total risk-based capital - Tier 1 risk-based capital plus qualifying subordinated debt, other noncontrolling interests not qualified as Tier 1, eligible gains on available-for-sale equity securities and the allowance for loan and lease losses, subject to certain limitations.

Total risk-based capital ratio - Total risk-based capital divided by period-end risk-weighted assets.
