Second Quarter 2024 Highlights:
- Second quarter net income was $14.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared with $15.2 million, or $0.50 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2024. The decline in net income reflects lower net interest income, and a higher credit loss expense, partially offset by lower noninterest expenses.
- Loans receivable were $6.18 billion at June 30, 2024, essentially unchanged from the end of the first quarter of 2024; loan production for the second quarter was $273.9 million with a weighted average interest rate of 8.31%.
- Deposits were $6.33 billion at June 30, 2024, down 0.7% from the end of the first quarter of 2024; noninterest-bearing demand deposits were 31.0% of total deposits at the end of the second quarter.
- Net interest income for the second quarter was $48.6 million, down 4.0% from the first quarter of 2024, and net interest margin (taxable equivalent) was 2.69% for the second quarter, down 9 basis points; the average yield on loans decreased 1 basis point, while the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 11 basis points.
- Noninterest income for the second quarter was $8.1 million, up $0.4 million, or 4.2%, from the first quarter of 2024.
- Noninterest expenses were $35.3 million for the second quarter, down 3.2% from the first quarter of 2024, primarily reflecting a decrease in salaries and benefits.
- Asset quality remained favorable with criticized loans declining 17.6% from the first quarter of 2024, to $70.9 million, or 1.1% of loans. Nonperforming assets rose 7 basis points, to 0.26% of total assets, and net charge offs continued to be low at $1.8 million, or 0.12% of average loans (annualized).

Results of Operations
Net interest income for the second quarter decreased to $48.6 million from $50.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, down 4.0%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 11 basis points to 4.27% for the second quarter of 2024, from 4.16% for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits was due to higher market interest rates. Average interest-bearing deposits were $4.38 billion for the second quarter, down 0.6% from $4.41 billion for the first quarter of 2024. The yield on average loans for the second quarter decreased to 5.99% from 6.00% for the first quarter of 2024. Average loans were $6.09 billion for the second quarter, down 0.8% from $6.14 billion for the first quarter of 2024. Second quarter loan prepayment fees were $0.1 million, compared with $0.2 million for the first quarter of 2024. Net interest margin (taxable-equivalent) for the second quarter was 2.69%, compared with 2.78% for the first quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter decreased to $35.3 million from $36.4 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decline was primarily due to a $1.2 million decrease in salaries and benefits arising from $0.6 million in seasonally lower employer taxes and benefits and a $0.6 million decrease in capitalized labor costs associated with the Company’s investment in a new loan origination system. All other categories of recurring noninterest expense combined, except for data processing, which increased by $0.1 million, decreased $0.5 million for the second quarter from the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, Hanmi recorded $0.3 million in nonrecurring branch consolidation expenses in the second quarter due to the consolidation of three branches; two branches in Texas and one branch in California. The efficiency ratio for the second quarter was 62.2%, compared with 62.4% for the first quarter of 2024.

Asset Quality
Loans 30 to 89 days past due and still accruing were 0.22% of loans at the end of the second quarter of 2024, compared with 0.26% at the end of the prior quarter.
Criticized loans totaled $70.9 million at the end of the second quarter, down from $86.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2024. Special mention loans were $36.9 million at the end of the second quarter, down from $62.3 million at March 31, 2024. Reductions in special mention loans included upgrades to pass of $17.9 million, paydowns and payoffs of $2.3 million and a downgrade of one loan relationship with total loans of $7.2 million. The upgrades to pass in the second quarter were mainly attributable to upgrades of $13.6 million on two commercial and industrial loans, and a $4.3 million upgrade on a commercial real estate loan. The quarter-over-quarter change also included increases from downgrades of $2.0 million of pass loans.
Classified loans were $33.9 million at June 30, 2024, up from $23.7 million at the end of the prior quarter. The $10.2 million increase was primarily driven by new loan downgrades to classified of $14.0 million, offset by charge-offs of $1.8 million, payoffs of $1.0 million, and paydowns and amortization of $1.0 million. The loan downgrades in the second quarter were primarily attributable to the previously mentioned $7.2 million in criticized loan downgrades.
Nonperforming loans were $19.2 million at June 30, 2024, up from $14.0 million at the end of the prior quarter. As a percentage of the loan portfolio, nonperforming loans were 0.31% at June 30, 2024, and 0.23% at the end of the first quarter.
Nonperforming assets were $20.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024, up from $14.1 million at the end of the prior quarter. The increase included a $0.7 million addition of a closed branch property. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets were 0.26% at June 30, 2024, and 0.19% at the end of the first quarter.
Gross charge-offs for the second quarter of 2024 were $2.3 million, compared with $2.1 million for the preceding quarter. Recoveries of previously charged-off loans were $0.5 million in the second and first quarters of 2024. As a result, net charge-offs were $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared with net charge-offs of $1.6 million for the prior quarter.
The allowance for credit losses was $67.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared with $68.3 million at March 31, 2024. Specific allowances for loans increased $1.6 million, while the allowance for quantitative and qualitative considerations decreased $2.2 million. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to loans was 1.10% at June 30, 2024, compared with 1.11% at March 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets Ratio
Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Hanmi’s capital strength. Tangible common equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Hanmi. This disclosure should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
The following table reconciles this non-GAAP performance measure to the GAAP performance measure for the periods indicated:
