Loans and Leases
At March 31, 2019, the total loan and lease portfolio of $2.77 billion increased 28.3% from its level at the end of the first quarter of 2018 and 9.6% from its level at December 31, 2018. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, loans and leases held for investment increased $158.7 million, or 8.6%, to $2.00 billion while loans held for sale increased $85.1 million, or 12.4%, to $772.5 million. Loan and lease originations totaled $390.9 million during the first quarter of 2019, a decrease of $108.1 million, or 21.7%, from the fourth quarter of 2018, largely due to seasonality in loan demand. The total loan and lease portfolio at March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, of $2.77 billion and $2.53 billion, respectively, was comprised of approximately 59.4% and 62.0% unguaranteed loans and leases, respectively.
Average loans and leases were $2.67 billion during the first quarter of 2019 compared to $2.40 billion during the fourth quarter of 2018.
Deposits
Total deposits increased by $378.8 million, or 12.0%, to $3.53 billion at March 31, 2019, from $3.15 billion at December 31, 2018, supporting the growing loan and lease portfolio and yielding a robust liquidity profile. Average total interest-bearing deposits for the first quarter of 2019 increased $355.2 million, or 12.1%, to $3.29 billion, compared to $2.94 billion for the fourth quarter of 2018. The ratio of average total loans and leases to average interest-bearing deposits was 81.1% for the first quarter of 2019, compared to 81.7% for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2019 rose to $30.6 million compared to $24.5 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $28.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase from the prior year was driven by the significant growth in the combined held for sale and held for investment loan and lease portfolios reflecting the Company’s ongoing initiative to grow recurring revenue sources along with higher investment security holdings as the Company deploys excess liquidity while improving the asset-liability repricing mix. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2018 arose from higher average balances in both loans and leases and investment securities. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2019 decreased nine basis points to 3.63% versus 3.72% in the fourth quarter of 2018 as the increasing rates for deposits due to competitive pressures outpaced the improving yield of the loan portfolio.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2019 decreased by $17.7 million, or 57.6%, compared to the first quarter of 2018, and by $5.0 million, or 27.9%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The Company’s transition to selling fewer loans was a key driver in lower noninterest income compared to the first quarter of 2018.
The Company’s net gains on sales of loans decreased to $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared to $24.4 million in the first quarter of 2018 and $5.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. The volume of guaranteed loan sales in the first quarter of 2019 declined to $62.9 million compared to $247.2 million in the first quarter of 2018 and $104.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. As mentioned above, the decline in loan sale volumes is consistent with the Company’s recent strategic shift to hold substantially more of its production on balance sheet intended to build its recurring revenue streams. The average net gain on guaranteed loan sales was $61.3 thousand per million sold in the first quarter of 2019, a decrease from $98.8 thousand in the first quarter of 2018 and an increase from $59.8 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2018. The decline in average net gain on guaranteed loan sales for the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018 was impacted by the mix of loans sold along with lower secondary market premiums combined with $1.7 million in fair value net losses in exchange-traded interest rate lock commitments. The increase in average net gain on guaranteed loans sales compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 was largely a product of greater selectivity over loans designated for sale combined with improving secondary market conditions. Excluding fair value fluctuations in exchange-traded interest rate lock commitments, the average net gain on guaranteed loan sales was $89.0 thousand and $98.5 thousand per million sold in the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $77.4 thousand per million sold in the fourth quarter of 2018.
The sale of the title insurance business in late 2018 also contributed to the decline in noninterest income compared to the first quarter 2018. These factors were partially offset by increases in loan servicing revenues, lower losses from the loan servicing asset revaluation and higher lease income. The reduction in noninterest income from the fourth quarter of 2018, other than reduced net gains on sales of loans, reflected increased losses in the loan servicing asset revaluation and flow through losses from equity method investments.
Loan servicing revenues of $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2019 increased by $512 thousand, or 7.4%, from the first quarter of 2018 and decreased by $342 thousand, or 4.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2018. The decline from the fourth quarter of 2018 was related to a decrease in the SBA 7(a) serviced portfolio balance due to amortization combined with fewer loans sold. The net loss resulting from the revaluation of the servicing asset totaled $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2019, a decrease of $2.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2018 and an increase of $1.6 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, largely because of variability in market conditions.
Lease income from solar panels contributed $2.3 million in noninterest income in the first quarter of 2019, compared to $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2018 and $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase from the first quarter of 2018 was related to growth in leased solar panels.
Other noninterest income of $556 thousand in the first quarter of 2019 decreased by $2.1 million, or 79.3%, from the fourth quarter of 2018 and was driven by a net change of $3.0 million non-cash loss on equity method investments.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2019 was $38.2 million, an increase from $38.1 million for the first quarter of 2018 and an increase from $32.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Salaries and employee benefits for the first quarter of 2019 increased to $21.9 million compared to $20.2 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $14.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase over the fourth quarter of 2018 was largely influenced by the Company’s $4.5 million reversal of accrued incentive compensation during the fourth quarter due to not meeting budgeted performance metrics for the year ending December 31, 2018. Influencing the increase to a smaller extent was the ongoing expansion of the Company’s workforce and infrastructure to support its initiatives.
Partially offsetting the increase in noninterest expense from the fourth quarter of 2018 were decreases in travel expense of $2.1 million attributable to lower levels of routine maintenance for corporate aircraft that was sold in the first quarter of 2019.
Asset Quality
Net charge-offs of $65 thousand in the first quarter of 2019 decreased compared to $1.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 and $532 thousand in the first quarter of 2018. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average held for investment loans and leases, annualized, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, was 0.01% compared to 0.28% for the fourth quarter of 2018 and 0.15% for the first quarter of 2018.
The unguaranteed exposure of nonperforming loans increased to $20.2 million, or 1.01% of total loans and leases held for investment, at March 31, 2019, compared to $14.5 million, or 0.79%, at December 31, 2018. Total nonperforming loans increased to $70.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 from $57.7 million at the end of the prior quarter. For the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the percentage of unguaranteed criticized loans and leases, comprised of risk grades 5 through 8, to unguaranteed held for investment loans and leases was 5.39% and 5.12%, respectively.
The unguaranteed exposure of foreclosed assets increased to $170 thousand at March 31, 2019, from $148 thousand at December 31, 2018. Foreclosed assets increased $280 thousand to $1.4 million at March 31, 2019, from $1.1 million at December 31, 2018.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses for the first quarter of 2019 totaled $2.7 million compared to $4.4 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $6.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in provision expense was largely the result of growth principally comprised of guaranteed loans combined with decreased levels of net charge-offs.
The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $35.1 million at March 31, 2019, compared to $32.4 million at December 31, 2018. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases held for investment was 1.75% and 1.76% at March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Income Tax
Income tax expense was $317 thousand in the first quarter of 2019 compared to $315 thousand in the first quarter of 2018 and a net income tax benefit of $3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. The Company’s effective tax rate is predominantly driven by the leasing of renewable energy assets which generate investment tax credits. As the lessor of these assets, the Company is accomplishing broader strategic initiatives in the renewable energy sector.

This press release presents the non-GAAP financial measures previously shown. The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measures are included where applicable in financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results. The Company believes that excluding the amounts associated with these adjustments to present the non-GAAP financial measures provides a meaningful base for period-to-period comparisons, which will assist regulators, investors, and analysts in analyzing the operating results or financial position of the Company. The non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to assess the performance of the Company’s business for presentations of Company performance to investors, and for other reasons as may be requested by investors and analysts. The Company further believes that presenting the non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors and analysts to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by shareholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
