SILICON VALLEY BANCSHARES ANNOUNCES
------------------------------------
SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
----------------------
SANTA CLARA, CA -- Silicon Valley Bancshares (the "Company"), parent company of
Silicon Valley Bank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $33.7 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2000, a $24.8 million, or 276.8%, increase
from the $9.0 million earned in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in net
income for the second quarter of 2000, versus the comparable prior year period,
was attributable to increases in net interest income and noninterest income,
partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense.
Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.70 in the second quarter of 2000,
a 233.3% increase from the $0.21 per diluted share earned in the comparable 1999
period. For the first six months of 2000, net income amounted to $88.4 million,
or $1.85 per diluted share, an increase of 426.4% and 362.5%, respectively,
versus $16.8 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the first six months of
1999.
The Company's "operating" earnings per share, on a fully diluted
basis, totaled $0.59 and $1.11 for the three and six-month periods ended June
30, 2000, respectively. The Company defines operating earnings as net income,
excluding, on an after-tax basis, income from the disposition of client
warrants, investment gains or losses, retention and warrant incentive plan
expense, and provision for loan losses in excess of 1% of average loans on an
annualized basis.
<PAGE>
Shares and per share amounts for all periods presented have been
adjusted to give retroactive recognition to a two-for-one stock split
distributed on May 15, 2000.
"Our second quarter results are a continuation of the strong
performance we reported for the first quarter of this year," said John C. Dean,
President and Chief Executive Officer. "We had continued strong growth in our
core operating earnings, and gains from our warrant and equity investment
portfolios, though down from the record levels realized in the first quarter of
2000, remained at significant levels, totaling $19.0 million."
Total assets were $5.4 billion at June 30, 2000, an increase of $1.3
billion, or 32.1%, compared to $4.1 billion at June 30, 1999. Total deposits
increased $1.1 billion, or 27.8%, to $4.8 billion at June 30, 2000, from $3.8
billion at June 30, 1999. Loans, net of unearned income, were $1.6 billion at
June 30, 2000, relatively unchanged from the same period in 1999. Off-balance
sheet client funds totaled $10.2 billion at June 30, 2000, compared with $2.2
billion a year ago.
Net interest income totaled $81.9 million for the second quarter of
2000, a $35.1 million, or 75.1%, increase compared to the $46.8 million total
for the prior year second quarter. The increase in net interest income was the
result of a $1.0 billion, or 27.0%, increase in average interest-earning assets
over the same quarter last year, combined with an increase in the Company's net
interest margin. The net interest margin was 7.0% for the second quarter of
2000, compared to 5.0% for the prior year second quarter.
Noninterest income increased $28.1 million, or 435.7%, to a total of
$34.6 million in the second quarter of 2000 versus $6.5 million in the prior
year second quarter. The increase in noninterest income was largely due to
increases in income from the disposition of client warrants, client investment
fees and gains on venture capital fund investments. Income from the disposition
of client warrants totaled $16.8 million in the second quarter of 2000 and
resulted from the sale of warrants in 38 companies. Client investment fees
increased $8.0 million to a total of $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2000,
versus $0.2 million in the 1999 second quarter.
Based on June 30, 2000 market valuations, the Company had potential
pre-tax warrant gains totaling $37.8 million related to 46 companies. The
Company is restricted from exercising many of these warrants until the third and
fourth quarters of 2000. As of June 30, 2000, the Company held 1,082 warrants in
848 companies, and had made investments in 175 venture capital funds and direct
equity investments in 40 companies. Many of these companies are non-public.
Thus, for those companies for which a readily
2
<PAGE>
determinable market value cannot be obtained, the Company values those equity
instruments at cost less any identified impairment. Additionally, the Company is
typically precluded from using any type of derivative instrument to secure the
current unrealized gains associated with many of these equity instruments.
Hence, the amount of income realized by the Company from these equity
instruments in future periods may vary materially from the current unrealized
amount due to fluctuations in the market prices of the underlying common stock
of these companies. Furthermore, the Company may reinvest some or all of the
income realized from the disposition of these equity instruments in pursuing its
business strategies.
Noninterest expense totaled $49.0 million in the second quarter of
2000, a $21.2 million, or 76.3%, increase over the $27.8 million incurred in the
comparable 1999 period. The increase in noninterest expense was substantially
due to increases in full-time equivalent employees as well as increases in
performance-based compensation associated with the Company's retention, warrant
and incentive compensation plans. The increases in the remaining noninterest
expense items, when compared to the same period last year, were largely
attributable to overall growth in the Company's business as well as several
ongoing business initiatives.
For the second quarter of 2000, return on average assets (ROA) was
2.7%, versus 0.9% for the second quarter of 1999. Return on average equity (ROE)
was 33.1% in the second quarter of 2000, compared to 16.0% in the 1999 second
quarter. For the first six months of 2000, ROA was 3.6% and ROE was 44.2%,
versus 0.9% and 15.3%, respectively, for the first six months of 1999.
The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing the amount of
noninterest expense, excluding costs associated with retention and warrant
incentive plans and other real estate owned, by adjusted revenues, defined as
the total of net interest income and noninterest income, excluding income from
the disposition of client warrants and gains or losses related to sales of
investment securities. The Company's efficiency ratio was 47.2% in the second
quarter of 2000, down from 52.9% in the 1999 second quarter. The Company's
efficiency ratio for the first six months of 2000 was 46.3%, compared to 53.7%
for the first six months of 1999.
Nonperforming loans totaled $26.9 million, or 1.7% of total loans, at
June 30, 2000, compared to $47.4 million, or 3.0% of total loans, a year
earlier. Total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2000 decreased $1.9 million , or
6.6%, from the $28.8 million total at March 31, 2000.
Nonperforming loans at the end of the 2000 second quarter included two
commercial credits totaling $14.8 million. The first credit, totaling $7.9
million, is in
3
<PAGE>
the Company's Entertainment niche and was disclosed as having a higher than
normal risk of becoming a nonperforming in the Company's 2000 first quarter Form
10-Q. The second credit, totaling $6.9 million, is in the Company's Healthcare
Services niche and has been nonperforming since the 2000 first quarter.
Management believes these credits are adequately secured with collateral and
reserves, and that any future charge-offs associated with these loans will not
have a material impact on the future net income of the Company.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $73.8 million, or 4.6% of
total loans and 274.6% of nonperforming loans, at June 30, 2000, compared to
$71.8 million, or 4.4% of total loans and 252.3% of nonperforming loans, at
December 31, 1999. The Company incurred $10.2 million in net charge-offs
during the second quarter of 2000. Gross charge-offs for the 2000 second
quarter totaled $11.3 million.
Stockholders' equity totaled $436.2 million at June 30, 2000, an
increase of $209.2 million, or 92.2%, compared to $227.0 million a year prior.
Total stockholders' equity plus the allowance for loan losses amounted to $510.0
million at June 30, 2000, an increase of $226.7 million, or 80.0%, compared to
$283.3 million a year earlier.
