For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, net income was a record $56.0 million, an increase of 38.9% over net income of $40.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Earnings attributable to BofI's common stockholders were $55.6 million or $3.85 per diluted share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, an increase of 41.0% from $39.5 million or $2.89 per diluted share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Record earnings for the quarter and for the year ended June 30, 2014 were primarily the result of growth in the Bank's loan portfolio.
"Our loan portfolio originations increased 146% and 118% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and the fiscal year, respectively, generating higher net interest income and resulting in our tenth consecutive quarter of record net income," stated Mr. Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Garrabrants continued, "Our portfolio loan growth is organic and reflects balanced growth in our single and multifamily mortgage and C&I lending products. We achieved our loan growth without reducing our credit standards while improving our net interest margin. Our diluted earnings per share increased 33.2% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 and our return on equity and efficiency ratio improved to 17.9% and 37.6%, respectively, reflecting positive operating leverage in our highly efficient business model. We also improved our loan quality as net charge offs to average loans decreased to 4 basis points for fiscal 2014, down from 14 basis points for fiscal 2013. Non-performing assets to total assets also decreased to 46 basis points at June 30, 2014, down from 66 basis points at June 30, 2013. Our bank is well positioned for continued growth as we recently opened another $50 million 'at-the-market' common stock public offering which we will deploy as necessary. The Bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 8.66% at June 30, 2014 up from 8.63% at June 30, 2013."
Other Highlights:
- Total assets reached $4,403.0 million, up $1,312.2 million or 42.5% compared to June 30, 2013
- Loan portfolio grew by $1,275.9 million or 56.5% compared to June 30, 2013
- Loan originations increased by $898.9 million, up 42.0% compared to the year ended June 30, 2013
- Deposits grew by $949.5 million, or 45.4% compared to June 30, 2013

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2014 Income Statement Summary
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, BofI earned $16.0 million or $1.09 per diluted share compared to $11.1 million, or $0.78 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Net interest income increased $12.5 million or 44.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to June 30, 2013. Average earning assets grew year over year by $1,143.2 million and our net interest margin was 4.02% compared to 3.89% for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Loan loss provision was $2.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $1.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily the result of growth in the loan portfolio.
For the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2014, non-interest income was $4.7 million compared to $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The reasons for the $3.2 million decrease were mortgage banking income which decreased $3.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of $1.0 million in banking service fees and other income, and a decrease in other gains on sales of $0.2 million, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in unrealized losses on securities.
Non-interest expense or operating costs increased $0.4 million to $15.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from $15.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in compensation expense of $0.7 million related to additional staffing added since June 30, 2013 and an increase in data processing and internet expenses of $0.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in other general and administrative expense of $1.0 million. The increases in staffing and data processing and internet expenses are primarily due to growth of the Bank's lending and deposit operations.
Balance Sheet Summary
BofI's total assets increased $1,312.2 million, or 42.5%, to $4,403.0 million, as of June 30, 2014, up from $3,090.8 million at June 30, 2013. The loan portfolio increased a net $1,275.9 million, primarily from portfolio loan originations of $2,298.0 million less principal repayments and other adjustments of $1,022.1 million. Loans held for sale increased $58.4 million. Total liabilities increased by $1,209.7 million or 42.9%, to $4,032.2 million at June 30, 2014, up from $2,822.5 million at June 30, 2013. The increase in total liabilities resulted primarily from growth in demand and savings deposits of $1,217.7 million and growth in FHLB borrowings of $319.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in time deposits of $268.2 million and a decrease of $65.0 million in securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Stockholders' equity increased by $102.5 million, or 38.2%, to $370.8 million at June 30, 2014, up from $268.3 million at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily the result of $56.0 million in net income, sale of common stock through an ATM offering of $41.6 million and vesting and issuance of RSU's and exercise of stock options of $4.9 million.
The Bank's Tier 1 capital was 8.66% at June 30, 2014 compared to 8.63% at June 30, 2013.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as core earnings.

Although BofI believes the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors' understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
