LA JOLLA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Silvergate Capital Corporation (“Silvergate” or “Company”) (NYSE:SI) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silvergate Bank (“Bank”), today announced financial results for the period ended December 31, 2019.
Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights
- Successfully completed the Company’s initial public offering of 824,605 shares of common stock sold by the Company and 2,508,728 shares sold by selling shareholders on November 12, 2019.

- Net income for the quarter was $3.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019, and net income of $8.0 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018
- Digital currency customers grew to 804 at December 31, 2019 compared to 756 at September 30, 2019, and 542 at December 31, 2018
- The Silvergate Exchange Network (“SEN”) handled 14,400 transactions in the fourth quarter as compared to 12,312 transactions in the third quarter of 2019 and 4,977 transactions in the fourth quarter of 2018
- The SEN handled $9.6 billion of U.S. dollar transfers in the fourth quarter as compared to $10.4 billion in the third quarter of 2019, and $3.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018
- Digital currency customer related fee income for the quarter was $1.4 million, compared to $1.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, and $0.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2018
- Book value per share was $12.38 at December 31, 2019, compared to $12.92 at September 30, 2019, and $10.73 at December 31, 2018
Full Year 2019 Financial Highlights
- Net income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $24.8 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, compared to net income of $22.3 million, or $1.31 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2018
- The SEN handled 46,063 transactions for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to 7,869 for the year ended December 31, 2018
- The SEN handled $32.7 billion of U.S. dollar transfers for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to $8.3 billion for the year ended December 31, 2018
- Digital currency customer related fee income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $4.9 million compared to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018
Alan Lane, president and chief executive officer of Silvergate, commented, “Our fourth quarter results were in line with our expectations and highlighted by the continued strong growth of the SEN which added 48 digital currency customers in the fourth quarter, bringing our total customers to 804 at the end of the year. The SEN’s strong adoption can also be seen in the network’s digital currency transactions which rose 17% sequentially from the third quarter. While the price of bitcoin was volatile in the fourth quarter, impacting digital fee income and U.S. dollar volumes, we remain confident in the growth outlook for the SEN given our strong customer pipeline and increased SEN transaction volumes combined with the many opportunities that we see to expand the SEN’s product offerings to further drive digital currency fee income growth. One such initiative, recently announced, is SEN Leverage which will allow our customers to obtain U.S. dollar loans collateralized by bitcoin. SEN Leverage further enhances the competitive advantage and network effect of our global payments platform and demonstrates Silvergate’s leadership in providing banking services for the digital currency industry.”

_______________________
(1) |
Data has been annualized. |
(2) |
Net interest margin is a ratio calculated as annualized net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the same period. |
(3) |
Cost of deposits and cost of funds increased beginning in the second quarter of 2019 due to the cost of a hedging strategy discussed in “Balance Sheet —Securities” in more detail below. |
(4) |
Efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expenses by net interest income plus noninterest income. |
(5) |
In March 2019, the Bank completed the sale of its San Marcos branch and business loan portfolio which generated a pre-tax gain on sale of $5.5 million, or $3.9 million after tax, which significantly positively impacted net income, diluted earnings per share, ROAA, ROAE and efficiency ratio during the first quarter of 2019. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further information and reconciliation of these metrics. |

Results of Operations, Quarter Ended December 31, 2019
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Analysis
Net interest income totaled $15.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $18.4 million for the third quarter of 2019, and $20.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, net interest income decreased $2.8 million due to an increase in interest expense as a result of premium expense associated with calling and reissuing brokered certificates of deposits at lower rates, and a decrease in interest earning assets driven primarily by a decrease in average balances of interest earning deposits in other banks and securities. In addition, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered the federal funds rate in both the third and fourth quarter of 2019, reducing the yields on Bank interest earning deposits and securities. This was partially offset by an increase in average loans, primarily due to an increase in mortgage warehouse loan balances.
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, net interest income decreased $5.2 million due to a $213.0 million decrease in average interest earning assets, a $302.4 million increase in average interest bearing liabilities, and a 205 basis point increase in the rates on interest bearing liabilities. Average interest earning assets decreased primarily due to a decrease in interest earning deposits offset by an increase in securities and loans. The decrease in interest earning deposits was primarily due to the investment of such funds in higher yielding securities and loans. The increase in securities resulted from purchases of fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities and adjustable rate residential mortgage-backed securities, while the increase in loans was primarily driven by an increase in mortgage refinancing, increased mortgage warehouse loan demand, and increased production of multi-family residential loans, offsetting a decrease in loans related to the sale of the business loan portfolio in the first quarter of 2019. Yields on earning assets benefited from the increase in securities relative to interest earning deposits in other banks and an increase in interest income primarily due to increased mortgage warehouse loan balances. The increase in rates on interest bearing deposits was primarily due to the issuance of callable brokered certificates of deposits, which were used to fund fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities, both associated with a hedging strategy which is discussed in further detail under “Balance Sheet—Securities.” Noninterest bearing deposits generated by the digital currency initiative are primarily invested in securities and interest earning deposits.
Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 2.97%, compared to 3.39% for the third quarter of 2019, and 3.59% for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in the net interest margin compared to the third quarter of 2019 was driven by an increase in interest expense due to premium expense associated with calling and reissuing brokered certificates of deposits at lower rates. The yield on interest earning assets declined 11 basis points due primarily to reductions in the federal funds rate during the third and fourth quarters of 2019, which was partially offset by increased balances of higher yielding mortgage warehouse loans. The net interest margin decrease from the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily due to increased interest expense from the new callable brokered certificates of deposits associated with the hedging strategy.

(1) |
Loans include nonaccrual loans and loans held-for-sale, net of deferred fees and before allowance for loan losses. |
(2) |
Interest income includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs. |
(3) |
Net interest spread is the difference between interest rates earned on interest earning assets and interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. |
(4) |
Net interest margin is a ratio calculated as annualized net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the same period. |
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company recorded no provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to reversals of the provision for loan losses of $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2019, and $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The reversal in the third quarter of 2019 was due to improvements in qualitative factors related to the loan portfolio and the continued low charge-off rates. The reversal in the fourth quarter of 2018 was primarily due to reclassifying $125.2 million in loans held-for-investment as loans held-for-sale in connection with the Company’s November 2018 agreement to sell the Bank’s business loan portfolio.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $3.1 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 20.4%, from the third quarter of 2019. The primary driver of this increase was a $0.7 million gain on sale of securities which is discussed in further detail under “Balance Sheet—Securities.”
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased by $1.1 million, or 57.2%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. This increase was driven by a $0.7 million, or 90.6%, increase in deposit related fees, along with the $0.7 million gain on sale of securities, partially offset by a decrease in service fees related to off-balance sheet deposits. Deposit related fees increased primarily due to increases in cash management, foreign exchange, and SEN related fees associated with our digital currency initiative.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, and $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Our effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 29.5%, compared to 28.3% for the third quarter of 2019, and 24.1% fourth quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 was impacted by higher blended state taxes and lower excess benefit from stock-based compensation compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.
Results of Operations, Year Ended December 31, 2019
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $24.8 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, compared to $22.3 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, for 2018.
Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $71.0 million, compared to $69.6 million for the same period in 2018. Our increased net interest income was primarily due to an $8.3 million increase in interest income partially offset by a $6.9 million increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income was due to both an increase in average earning assets and higher yields on those assets, driven in part by an increase in higher yielding securities and a reduction in lower yielding interest earning deposits, which offset higher rates on interest bearing deposits as a result of the new callable brokered certificates of deposits associated with the Company’s hedging strategy.
Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $15.8 million, compared to $7.6 million for 2018. The increase in total noninterest income was primarily due to the increase in fee income from our digital currency customers and a $5.5 million gain on a branch sale that occurred in the first quarter of 2019. Digital currency customer related fee income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $4.9 million as compared to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Noninterest expense was $52.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $48.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits and communications and data processing expenses relating to our organic growth, as we have expanded operational infrastructure and implemented our plan to build an efficient, technology-driven global payments platform with significant capacity for growth.
Income tax expense was $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to income tax expense of $8.1 million for 2018. Our effective tax rate for 2019 and 2018 was 28.3% and 26.5%, respectively.
Balance Sheet
Deposits
At December 31, 2019, deposits totaled $1.8 billion, a decrease of $33.4 million, or 1.8%, from September 30, 2019, and an increase of $31.6 million, or 1.8%, from December 31, 2018. Noninterest bearing deposits totaled $1.3 billion (representing approximately 74.0% of total deposits) at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $50.8 million from the prior quarter end and a $238.1 million decrease compared to December 31, 2018. The decrease in total deposits from the prior quarter reflects changes in deposit levels of our digital currency customers. The increase in total deposits from December 31, 2018 reflects an increase of $325.0 million in callable brokered certificates of deposit associated with our hedging strategy, offset by decreases from our digital currency customers and a $74.5 million decrease from the sale of our San Marcos branch in the first quarter of 2019.
The weighted average cost of deposits for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 0.84%, compared to 0.50% for the third quarter of 2019, and 0.08% for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase in the weighted average cost of deposits compared to the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018 was driven by the addition of new callable brokered certificates of deposit associated with a hedging strategy and the accelerated premium expense associated with the call and reissuance of brokered certificates of deposit in the fourth quarter of 2019, as discussed under “Balance Sheet—Securities.”
