FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WESTERN BANCORP ANNOUNCES 1997 EARNINGS
February 2, 1998
Newport Beach, California . . . Western Bancorp ("Western") today announced that
its consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $3,162,000,
or $0.29 per diluted share. This compares with earnings of $8,989,000, or $1.09
per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 1996. On an operating basis,
before the amortization of goodwill of $2,538,000 in 1997 and $1,004,000 in
1996, and after-tax merger costs of $11,881,000 in 1997 and before an after-tax
gain on sale of loans of $46,000 in 1997 and $389,000 in 1996, net income for
the twelve month periods would have been $17,473,000 and $9,604,000 in 1997 and
1996, respectively, or $1.63 and $1.16 per diluted share, respectively, a growth
of approximately 41%.
Western had a consolidated net loss of $4,366,000, or $0.41 per diluted share,
for the three months ended December 31, 1997. This compares with earnings of
$3,391,000, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31,
1996. On an operating basis, before the amortization of goodwill in 1997 and
1996 and before after tax merger costs of $8,744,000 in 1997, net income for the
three month period would have been $5,011,000 and $4,025,000 in 1997 and 1996,
respectively, or $0.46 and $0.38 per diluted share, respectively, a growth of
approximately 21%.
<PAGE>
Earnings for 1997 and the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 include the earnings of
Western Bank, which was acquired on September 30, 1996. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase and, therefore, the earnings of Western Bank have
been included in operating results since October 1, 1996.
Before the amortization of goodwill and merger costs in 1997 and before the
after-tax gain on sale of loans in 1997 and 1996, return on average assets
increased to 1.32% in 1997 versus 0.98% for 1996. Return on average equity
increased from 10.5% to 13.1% for 1997 versus 1996. Before goodwill
amortization and merger costs, the efficiency ratio in the fourth quarter of
1997 was 55.5% versus 77.4% for the same period in 1996. The efficiency ratio
for 1997 versus 1996 declined to 60.2% from 77.0%.
Western remains well capitalized with a leverage ratio of approximately 7.3%,
Tier 1 capital of approximately 9.8% and total capital to risk weighted assets
of approximately 11.0%
On January 27, 1998, Western Bancorp consummated the acquisition of Santa Monica
Bank through the merger of Santa Monica Bank with and into Western Bank, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Western Bancorp. The name of Western Bank has been
changed to Santa Monica Bank. The acquisition will be accounted for as a
purchase. As a result of this acquisition, approximately 4,972,000 shares of
Western Bancorp Common Stock were issued to certain holders of common stock of
Santa Monica Bank and to certain private investors. Western Bancorp's two
banking subsidiaries, Santa Monica Bank and Southern California Bank, together
had over $2 billion in assets on a pro-forma basis, as of December 31, 1997.
Western Bancorp's book value per common share outstanding was $17.89 on a
pro-forma basis as of December 31, 1997.
Mr. Matthew P. Wagner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Western Bancorp,
stated "Western Bancorp continues to make substantial progress on its goal of
becoming one of the top performing community banks in the country. There has
been a long list of accomplishments since we announced our third quarter
results. We have completed two mergers and our integration plans are proceeding
smoothly. As our results indicate, even though we still have much work to do to
meet our financial goals, quarter after quarter we are accomplishing significant
operating improvements. It should be noted that without merger costs, operating
expenses decreased from $15,784,000 in the fourth quarter of 1996 to $12,202,000
in the fourth quarter of 1997, an annualized expense run rate reduction of over
$14,000,000."
