The Company's reported financial results increased linked quarter primarily as a result of the gain on sale related to the divestiture of BOS. Additional factors driving the year-over-year increase include impairment of goodwill related to the divestiture of Anchor Capital Advisors, LLC ("Anchor") and income tax expense related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, each during the fourth quarter of 2017.

"Our Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 financial results reflect the successful divestiture of two affiliates," said Anthony DeChellis, CEO of Boston Private. "These transactions enabled the return of capital to shareholders during 2018 in the form of the completion of our $20 million share repurchase program."
"At the same time, we have additional capital to be used for the expansion of our Wealth Management, Trust, and Commercial and Private Banking businesses. My review of Boston Private's market positioning is well underway, and I look forward to sharing details about our vision to improve the Company's scale, efficiency, and productivity early in the second quarter of 2019."
Divested Affiliates
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Company completed the sale of Anchor and BOS (together, "Divested Affiliates") during 2018. Financial results from Divested Affiliates remain consolidated in the Company's financial results through the closing dates of the divestitures. The Anchor divestiture announcement date was December 20, 2017, resulting in impairment of goodwill during fourth quarter 2017 results, and the closing date was April 13, 2018. The BOS announcement date was October 17, 2018, and the closing date was December 3, 2018.
For presentation purposes, Divested Affiliates' AUM are excluded from AUM amounts, but are included in the calculation of Core fees and income. The discussion below includes non-GAAP measures that exclude the contributions from these affiliates in order to enhance comparability of trends in the core business.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $60.0 million, an increase of 1% linked quarter and 5% year-over-year. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher yields on interest-earning assets and higher asset volumes, partially offset by higher funding costs. Core net interest income, non-FTE basis, which excludes interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans, increased 1% linked quarter and 4% year-over-year.
The Company’s Core net interest margin (FTE basis) increased 4 basis points on a linked quarter basis to 2.92%, primarily driven by linked quarter deposit inflows that funded repayment of borrowings, the positive impact of higher asset yields, and lower levels of cash and investments as a percentage of interest-earning assets. The year-over-year decline was primarily driven by a lower tax benefit on tax-exempt income as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

7 Excludes$18.1 million gain on sale in 4Q18 and $1.3 million loss on sale in 4Q17
Total core fees and income for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $28.7 million, a decline of 9% linked quarter and 29% year-over-year primarily driven by the divestitures of Anchor and BOS. Notable Items impacting Total other income include an $18.1 million gain on sale related to BOS in the fourth quarter of 2018 and a $1.3 million loss on sale related to Anchor in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Excluding Notable Items and Divested Affiliates, Total core fees and income decreased 4% year-over-year primarily driven by the absence of Investment management performance fees in the fourth quarter of 2018, partially offset by increased Wealth advisory fees. Performance fees in the fourth quarter of 2017 were $0.9 million.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the securities in a rabbi trust, related to the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan, declined in value, which was recorded as $0.8 million of negative revenue in Total other income (Noninterest Income). This had a net zero impact to overall earnings because it had an equal and offsetting reduction in Salaries and employee benefits expense (Operating Expenses).

Total assets under management / advisory, were $15.9 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018, a decrease of 10% linked quarter and 5% year-over-year.

Net flows in the Wealth Management & Trust segment during the fourth quarter of 2018 were negative $79 million driven by elevated current client outflows, partially offset by $194 million of new business and low client attrition.

Average total loans in the fourth quarter of 2018 increased 6% year-over-year primarily driven by increases in Residential loans in all geographic markets. Construction and land loans increased year-over-year and linked quarter primarily as a result of funding tax-exempt industrial revenue bonds associated with affordable housing projects.
Average total deposits increased 7% year-over-year, primarily driven by growth in money market accounts, demand deposit accounts and certificates of deposits, partially offset by net declines in savings and NOW accounts. The cost of total deposits, including DDA, was 0.77%, an increase of 9 basis points linked quarter and 40 basis points year-over-year.

The Company recorded a provision expense of $0.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to credits of $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2018 and the fourth quarter of 2017. The provision expense in the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily driven by loan growth and an increase in criticized loans, offset by net loan recoveries.
Total criticized loans as of December 31, 2018 was $146.6 million, an increase of 9% linked quarter and a decrease of 5% year-over-year. The $12.0 million linked quarter increase was driven by the downgrade of certain C&I and commercial real estate relationships in New England.
Total nonaccrual loans as of December 31, 2018 was $14.1 million, or 20 basis points of total loans, compared to $12.1 million, or 18 basis points as of September 30, 2018, and $14.3 million, or 22 basis points as of December 31, 2017.

13 Current quarter information is presented based on estimated data.
Tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2018 increased 7% linked quarter and 15% year-over-year to $8.18. The increase of Tangible book value per share from December 31, 2017 to December 31, 2018 was primarily driven by the divestitures of Anchor and BOS and increased retained earnings, partially offset by common share repurchases and lower Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

For calculation of income for EPS, fourth quarter 2018 Net income attributable to the common shareholders benefited by $2.7 million, or $0.03 per share, related to the changes in value of Redeemable noncontrolling interests ("RNCI").

Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc.
Selected Financial Data (Unaudited)

FOOTNOTES:
(1)
On December 20, 2017, Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) announced an agreement, effective December 19, 2017, to sell all of its current equity interest in Anchor Capital Advisors LLC, an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Anchor”), to the management team of Anchor for an upfront cash payment and a non-voting, revenue share participation interest in Anchor.  On April 13, 2018, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Anchor. Anchor’s results remain consolidated in the Company’s results during current and prior periods through the closing date. For presentation purposes, Anchor’s AUM are excluded from current and prior period AUM amounts, but are included in the calculation of Core Fees and Income. The Company classified the assets and liabilities of Anchor as held for sale at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which are included with Other assets and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. For regulatory purposes, the goodwill and intangible assets of Anchor will be included in consolidated calculations.

On December 3, 2018, the Company completed the closing of the sale of all of its equity interest in Bingham, Osborn & Scarborough, LLC (“BOS”) to the management team of BOS for an upfront cash payment and a non-voting, limited-duration revenue share participation in BOS. For presentation purposes, BOS' AUM are excluded from current and prior period AUM amounts, but are included in the calculation of Core Fees and Income. For regulatory purposes, the goodwill and intangible assets of BOS will be included in consolidated calculations.

See footnotes 6 and 8, below.

(2)
Total revenue is the sum of Net interest income, Total core fees and income, and Total other income.

(3)
Net income from discontinued operations consists of contingent payments net of expenses related to our divested affiliate, Westfield Capital Management Company, LLC. The Company received its final contingent payment in the first quarter of 2018 related to this affiliate and a tax benefit related to deferred taxes in the fourth quarter of 2018 when annual tax returns were filed.

(4)
Adjustments to Net income attributable to the Company to arrive at Net income attributable to the common shareholders, treasury stock method, as presented in these tables, include decrease/ (increase) in Noncontrolling interests redemption value and dividends paid on preferred stock, if any, including deemed dividends on redemption of the 6.95% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series D (“the Series D preferred stock”). On June 15, 2018, the Company redeemed all $50 million of the outstanding Series D preferred stock. 

(5)
When the Company has positive Net income from continuing operations attributable to the common shareholders, the Company adds additional shares to basic Weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at Weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the Diluted earnings per share calculation. These additional shares reflect the assumed exercise, conversion, or contingent issuance of dilutive securities. If the additional shares would result in anti-dilution they would be excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. The potential dilutive shares relate to: unexercised stock options, unvested restricted stock and unexercised stock warrants. See Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 16: Earnings Per Share” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for additional information.

(6)
The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as: Tangible book value per share and the Tangible common equity (“TCE”) to Tangible assets (“TA”) ratio to provide information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with peers across the financial sector.

Reconciliations from the Company’s GAAP Total equity to Total assets ratio to the Non-GAAP TCE to TA ratio, and from GAAP Book value to Non-GAAP Tangible book value are presented below:

The Company calculates Tangible assets by adjusting Total assets to exclude Goodwill and intangible assets.

The Company calculates Tangible common equity by adjusting Total equity to exclude non-convertible Series D preferred stock and exclude Goodwill and intangible assets, net. On June 15, 2018, the Company redeemed all $50 million of the outstanding Series D preferred stock.

Accruing classified loans include loans that are classified as substandard but are still accruing interest income. Boston Private Bank & Trust Company may classify a loan as substandard where known information about possible credit problems of the related borrowers causes management to have doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present repayment terms and which may result in disclosure of such loans as nonaccrual at some time in the future.
    
(15)
The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as: Net interest income excluding interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans and Net interest margin excluding interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans, also referred to as Core net interest margin, to provide information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with peers across the financial sector.
