CHICAGO, Jan. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- PrivateBancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVTB) today reported net income of $59.5 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to $52.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2015, and $48.9 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company had net income of $208.4 million, or $2.57 per diluted share, compared to $185.3 million, or $2.32 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Highlights
Operating Performance
Net interest income grew to $155.4 million in the fourth quarter 2016, increasing 14 percent from the fourth quarter 2015 and 7 percent from the third quarter 2016, primarily driven by growth in average loans of 13 percent compared to fourth quarter 2015 and 4 percent compared to the third quarter 2016.
Net interest margin was 3.23 percent in the fourth quarter 2016, declining two basis points from a year ago and increasing five basis points from the third quarter 2016. For the full year 2016, net interest margin increased by four basis points from the prior year. Loan yields increased eight basis points from the third quarter 2016, attributable to higher loan fees tied to early loan repayments and continued upwards movement in LIBOR. The level of loan fees tends to be uneven quarter-to-quarter, dependent on when loans pay off during their term as well as whether early termination fees exist. Approximately 70 percent of the loan portfolio at year end was tied to one-month LIBOR, which was 77 basis points at December 31, 2016, compared to 43 basis points a year ago and 53 basis points at September 30, 2016, with most of the fourth quarter 2016 increase occurring in December. The interest rate moves during December 2016 are expected to be more impactful to loan yields during the first quarter 2017, as a meaningful portion of our variable loan portfolio reprices toward the beginning of the month. Excluding the contribution from loan fees, hedging, and the movement in LIBOR, loan yields were stable in the current environment. Deposit costs increased by one basis point from the third quarter 2016 and 10 basis points year-over year, but the impact on margin was mitigated by growth in average noninterest-bearing funds in a higher rate environment. As of year-end 2016, we had $1.7 billion of deposits indexed to the Fed funds effective or target rate, and the full effect of the December 2016 increase in the Fed funds effective rate will be reflected in first quarter 2017 deposit costs. Further interest rate increases, or changing expectations about future short-term interest rate movements, may impact market pricing and competitive dynamics for deposits generally, which may impact overall funding costs in future periods.
Noninterest income was $39.4 million in the fourth quarter 2016, increasing $6.8 million from the fourth quarter 2015 and $1.8 million from the third quarter 2016. Other income included gains related to loan sales of $1.5 million for the fourth quarter 2016 and $1.3 million for the third quarter 2016.
Capital markets revenue of $8.8 million for the fourth quarter 2016 reflected a positive credit valuation adjustment (CVA) of $3.1 million, compared to $1.0 million for the fourth quarter 2015 and $910,000 for the third quarter 2016. Excluding the CVA impact for all periods, capital markets revenue was $5.7 million in the fourth quarter 2016, compared to $5.3 million for the fourth quarter 2015 and $4.5 million for the third quarter 2016. Results for the fourth quarter 2016 reflected higher interest rate derivative activity from the comparative periods. Meaningful interest rate movements in fourth quarter 2016 and changing expectations about the timing and extent of future interest rate movements create potential for increased opportunities in the interest rate derivatives business in 2017.
The continued onboarding of new commercial clients benefited treasury management fees, which increased 12 percent from the fourth quarter 2015 and 3 percent from the third quarter 2016. Syndication fees were $5.1 million for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to $4.8 million for the fourth quarter 2015 and $4.7 million for the third quarter 2016. Syndication fees vary from quarter to quarter depending on the level and mix of loans originated and distributed.
Asset management revenue was $5.3 million in the fourth quarter 2016, increasing 20 percent from the fourth quarter 2015 and declining 6 percent from the third quarter 2016. Assets under management and administration were $9.7 billion at December 31, 2016, compared to $7.3 billion a year ago and $10.0 billion at September 30, 2016. Managed assets remained relatively consistent on a linked quarter basis. Custody assets declined by $351.5 million from September 30, 2016, reflecting a continuation of expected outflows from a large corporate trust account added during the first quarter 2016.
Expenses
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter 2016 increased $12.8 million from the fourth quarter 2015 and $3.9 million from the third quarter 2016. The efficiency ratio was 48.9 percent for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to 48.7 percent for the fourth quarter 2015 and 49.9 percent for the third quarter 2016.
Higher incentive compensation accruals tied to improved performance primarily drove an increase in salaries and benefits expense of 4 percent from the third quarter 2016. Compared to the fourth quarter 2015, salaries and benefits expense increased 11 percent, primarily reflecting annual salary adjustments made during the first quarter and additional hires over the last year, as well as higher incentives tied to company performance. First quarter 2017 salaries and benefits expense will include seasonally higher payroll taxes and employee benefits.
Other expenses includes the provision for unfunded commitments, which was $1.5 million for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to $1.9 million for the third quarter 2016 and a release of reserves for unfunded commitments of $3.5 million for the fourth quarter 2015.
Credit Quality
The allowance for loan losses was $185.8 million, or 1.23 percent of total loans, at December 31, 2016, compared to $180.3 million, or 1.23 percent of total loans, at September 30, 2016. The provision for loan losses was $6.1 million for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to $2.9 million for the fourth quarter 2015 and $15.9 million for the third quarter 2016. Provision for loan loss for the third quarter 2016 included $5.6 million related to a single lending relationship. The increase in the general reserve from September 30, 2016 reflected strong loan growth and some level of credit migration. Specific reserve levels were relatively consistent on a linked quarter basis. The provision for loan loss will fluctuate from period to period depending on the level of loan growth and unevenness in credit quality due to the size of individual credits. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans were 0.02 percent for the fourth quarter 2016, compared to 0.15 percent for the fourth quarter 2015 and 0.12 percent for the third quarter 2016.
Nonperforming assets were 0.47 percent of total assets at December 31, 2016, compared to 0.52 percent at September 30, 2016. At December 31, 2016, nonperforming loans were $83.7 million, or 0.56 percent of total loans, declining from $87.4 million, or 0.60 percent of total loans, at September 30, 2016. OREO declined $1.8 million from September 30, 2016 to $10.2 million at December 31, 2016.
Balance Sheet
Total assets were $20.1 billion at December 31, 2016, compared to $17.3 billion at December 31, 2015, and $19.1 billion at September 30, 2016. Total loans of $15.1 billion increased 13 percent from December 31, 2015, and 3 percent from September 30, 2016. Loan growth for the fourth quarter 2016 reflected loans to new clients of $652.3 million, partially offset by payoffs being higher than the five-quarter average and lower draws on revolving loans. At December 31, 2016, commercial loans represented 64 percent of total loans, and commercial real estate and construction loans represented 30 percent of total loans, relatively consistent with the prior comparative periods.
Total liabilities were $18.1 billion at December 31, 2016, compared to $15.6 billion at December 31, 2015, and $17.2 billion at September 30, 2016. Total deposits were $16.1 billion at December 31, 2016, increasing 12 percent from December 31, 2015, and 4 percent from September 30, 2016. Similar to prior years, deposit flows were stronger in the second half of 2016 compared to the first half. Deposit growth included an increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits of $840.9 million from a year ago and $339.1 million from September 30, 2016. During 2016, deposit funding was supplemented with short-term borrowings, which increased by $1.2 billion from December 31, 2015 and $311.0 million from September 30, 2016.
Net accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax declined $32.3 million from September 30, 2016, largely driven by a change in the value of the available-for-sale securities portfolio as a result of the increase in interest rates during the fourth quarter 2016.
Capital
As of December 31, 2016, the total risk-based capital ratio was 12.49 percent, the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 10.73 percent, and the leverage ratio was 10.28 percent. The common equity Tier 1 ratio was 9.83 percent and the tangible common equity ratio was 9.14 percent at the end of the year end 2016.
