For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, net income was a record $152.4
million, an increase of 13.1% over net income of $134.7 million for the
twelve months ended June 30, 2017. Earnings attributable to BofI’s
common stockholders were $152.1 million or $2.36 per diluted share for
the twelve months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of 13.1% from $134.4
million or $2.07 per diluted share for the twelve months ended June 30,
2017. Record earnings for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 were the
result of growth in the Bank’s loan and lease portfolio, growth in fee
income and a reduced income tax rate. Operating expenses increased due
to higher levels of loan originations and deposit activities and due to
non-operating expenses including re-branding and purchase accounting
amortization.
“We generated strong loan growth in the fourth quarter, led by robust
loan originations in jumbo single family mortgage, multifamily, and C&I
lending,” stated Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer
of BofI. “Our multi-year investments to diversify of our lending are
paying off, as reflected in ending loan balances increasing $368 million
in the fourth quarter and $1.06 billion in fiscal 2018. Demand for loans
remains strong, as evidenced by our $1.2 billion loan pipeline at
June 30, 2018.”
“Non-interest expense for the quarter was elevated due to expenses
related to Epiq, expenses related to RSUs, deal-related expenses, and
investments in rebranding, technology, and personnel,” said Andy
Micheletti, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of
BofI. “Our efficiency ratio for fiscal 2018 was 39.58%.”
He continued, “Credit quality remains healthy. Non-performing loans to
total loans was 37 basis points at June 30, 2018, down from 38 basis
points at June 30, 2017. Excluding charge-offs related to the H&R Block
tax product loans, our net annualized charge-off ratio was 2 basis
points in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 2 basis point for fiscal year
2018.”
Other Highlights:
-
Total assets reached $9,539.5 million, up $1,037.8 million or 12.2%
compared to June 30, 2017
-
Loan and lease portfolio grew by $1,057.8 million or 14.3% compared to
June 30, 2017
-

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2018 Income Statement Summary
During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, BofI earned $37.1 million or
$0.58 per diluted share compared to $32.5 million, or $0.50 per diluted
share for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Net interest income increased
$8.5 million or 10.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to
June 30, 2017, primarily due to the $1,101.4 million growth in
average-earning assets.
The loan and lease loss provision was $3.9 million for the quarter ended
June 30, 2018 compared to $0.2 million for the quarter ended June 30,
2017. The increase was primarily due to growth in the loan and lease
portfolio during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and higher loss
recoveries in the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
For the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2018, non-interest income was
$17.0 million compared to $13.5 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2017. The increase year over year was the result of an increase
banking service fees and other income of $3.0 million, primarily due to
bankruptcy trustee services, and an increase in gain on sale – other of
$2.4 million, due to increased sales of structured settlements and
lottery receivables, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking
income of $1.0 million and a decrease in realized gain on sales of
securities of $1.0 million.
Non-interest expense or operating costs increased $13.7 million to $49.7
million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 from $36.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was mainly a result of an
increase in compensation expense of $7.5 million related to staffing
added since June 30, 2017, an increase in advertising and promotional of
$1.7 million, an increase in other general and administrative expenses
of $1.4 million, an increase in data processing and internet expense of
$1.3 million and an increase in depreciation and amortization of $1.1
million. The increases in staffing, data processing and internet, and
depreciation expense were incurred primarily to support growth of the
Bank’s operations as well as the addition of Epiq operations. The
increase in advertising and promotional expense were primarily related
to increased deposit marketing and lead generation costs.
Our effective tax rate was 26.43% for the three months ended June 30,
2018 compared to 41.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The
decrease in our effective income tax rate for the three months ended
June 30, 2018 was primarily due to the tax benefit associated with the
federal rate reduction under the Tax Cuts and Job Acts of 2017 and tax
credits received during fiscal 2018.

million, as of June 30, 2018, up from $8,501.7 million at June 30, 2017.

stock repurchases, $1.1 million unrealized gain in other comprehensive
