Dennis Woods, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "We are pleased to report another solid quarter of earnings, building upon what has so far been a successful 2017. Excluding Non-Core items such as the Fair Value Adjustment for Trust Preferred Securities ("TRUPS") and the gain on sale of Other Real Estate Owned (OREO), net income would be $7,215,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of approximately 25.07% compared to net income of $5,769,000 for same period in 2016. Neither of these items are part of Core Income and specifically the TRUPS Fair Value Adjustment is dependent upon market rates, which can 'add to' or 'subtract from' Core Income and mask Core Income change." A reconciliation of Core Income, as a non-GAAP measure, to Net Income appears at the end of this Press Release.
Results of Operations
Annualized return on average equity (ROAE) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 9.42%, compared to 8.38% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Annualized return on average assets (ROAA) was 1.17% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 1.04% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. ROAE for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was 10.77% compared to 8.53% for the same period in 2016. ROAA was 1.33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to 1.07% for the same period in 2016. The average cost of deposits was 0.20% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, up from 0.18% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
Net interest income after the provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $23,081,000, an increase of $2,393,000, or 11.57%, from the net interest income of $20,688,000 for the same period ended September 30, 2016. The Company's net interest margin increased from 4.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to 4.24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The 14 basis point increase in net interest margin in the period-to-period comparison was the result of higher yields on both the loan portfolio and overnight deposits, partially offset by declining yields on the investment portfolio. The yield on loans increased from 5.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to 5.39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The 19 basis point increase in loan yields is primarily the result of growth of the higher-yielding student loan portfolio and increases on rates throughout the loan portfolio reflecting the increase in the prime rate. The increase in net interest income on a year-over-year comparison is the result of loan growth. Net interest income after the provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 totaled $8,150,000, an increase of $750,000 from the net interest income of $7,400,000 for the same period ended September 30, 2016.
Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 totaled $3,151,000, reflecting a decrease of $622,000 from $3,773,000 in non-interest income reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Customer service fees, which represent the largest portion of the Company's non-interest income, totaled $2,897,000 and $2,867,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. On a year-over-year comparative basis, non-interest income decreased primarily due to the change in fair value option of financial liability caused by fluctuations in the LIBOR yield curve. The Company recorded a $688,000 loss on the fair value option of financial liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a $48,000 gain for the same period ended September 30, 2016.
Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 totaled $1,176,000, reflecting an increase of $390,000 from $786,000 in non-interest income reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. This increase was primarily due to a $88,000 loss recorded on the fair value option of financial liability for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to a $423,000 loss for the same period ended 2016. The change in the fair value of financial liability was primarily caused by fluctuations in the LIBOR yield curve. Customer service fees totaled $959,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $924,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, non-interest expense totaled $14,543,000, a decrease of $445,000 compared to $14,988,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. On a year-over-year comparative basis, non-interest expense decreased primarily due to decreases of $473,000 in the net cost on operation and sale of OREO, $319,000 in regulatory assessments, and $204,000 in professional fees, partially offset by an increase of $557,000 in salaries and employee benefit expenses. Professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, included a $125,000 legal settlement. Salaries and employee benefit expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflect increases in salaries, higher group insurance expenses, and increases in incentives and bonuses.
Non-interest expense totaled $4,745,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $119,000 as compared to $4,864,000 reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. On a quarter-over-quarter comparative basis, non-interest expense decreased primarily due to decreases in regulatory assessments, professional fees, and net cost on operation and sale of OREO.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets increased $55,535,000, or 7.05%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, due primarily to increases of $46,860,000 in overnight funds and $12,767,000 in gross loan balances. The increase in loan balances is primarily attributed to the student loan portfolio, which consists entirely of loans to medical and pharmacy students.
Total deposits increased $48,669,000, or 7.19%, to $725,298,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The overall increase was led by an increase of $53,180,000 in noninterest bearing deposits and an increase of $32,474,000 in NOW, money market, and savings accounts. These increases were offset by a decrease of $36,985,000 in time deposits. Interest bearing deposits and savings accounts increased 10.44% to $343,415,000 at September 30, 2017, compared to $310,941,000 at December 31, 2016. Noninterest bearing deposits increased 20.24% to $315,877,000 at September 30, 2017, compared to $262,697,000 at December 31, 2016. As a result of the increases in demand deposits, NOW, money market, and saving accounts, net core deposits increased $85,654,000.
Shareholders' equity at September 30, 2017 was $101,108,000, up $4,454,000 from shareholders' equity of $96,654,000 at December 31, 2016.
The Board of Directors of United Security Bancshares declared cash dividends on common stock on April 25, 2017 and June 27, 2017, for $0.05 per share, and on September 26, 2017, for $0.07 per share. The dividends were payable May 17, 2017, to shareholders of record as of May 8, 2017, and were payable on July 21, 2017, to shareholders of record as of July 7, 2017. The current dividend is payable October 19, 2017, to shareholders of record as of October 10, 2017.

Credit Quality
The Company recorded a recovery of provision for credit losses of $24,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a recovery of provision of $7,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net loan recoveries totaled $280,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to net charge-offs of $788,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The Company recorded a provision for credit loss of $7,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, compared to a provision for credit losses of $4,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Net loan recoveries totaled $145,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, as compared to net loan recoveries of $6,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
The Company has maintained an adequate allowance for loan losses which totaled 1.57% of total loans at September 30, 2017, compared to 1.56% of total loans at December 31, 2016. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, the judgment of the Company's management is a significant factor and management considers the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2017 to be adequate.
Non-performing assets, comprised of nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructures (TDR), other real estate owned through foreclosure (OREO), and loans more than 90 days past due and still accruing interest, decreased approximately $965,000 between December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2017 to $17,916,000. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets decreased from 2.40% at December 31, 2016 to 2.12% at September 30, 2017. The decrease in nonperforming assets is mainly attributed to decreases in nonaccrual loans, impaired loans and OREO. Nonaccrual loans decreased $2,119,000 between December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2017 to $5,145,000. Impaired loans totaled $15,338,000 at September 30, 2017, a decrease of $841,000 from the balance of $16,179,000 at December 31, 2016.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release and the accompanying financial tables contain a non-GAAP financial measure (Net Income before Non-Core) within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation G. In the accompanying financial tables, the Company has provided a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The Company's management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information about the Company's results of operations and/or financial position to both investors and management. The Company provides this non-GAAP financial measure to investors to assist them in performing their analysis of its historical operating results. The non-GAAP financial measure shows the Company's operating results before consideration of certain adjustments and, consequently, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company may calculate this non-GAAP financial measure differently than other companies.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Company intends such statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on management's knowledge and belief as of today and include information concerning the Company's possible or assumed future financial condition, and its results of operations, business and earnings outlook. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. A number of factors, some of which are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict, could cause future results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. These factors include (1) changes in interest rates, (2) significant changes in banking laws or regulations, (3) increased competition in the company's market, (4) other-than-expected credit losses, (5) earthquake or other natural disasters impacting the condition of real estate collateral, (6) the effect of acquisitions and integration of acquired businesses, (7) the impact of proposed and/or recently adopted changes in laws, and regulations on the Company and its business; (8) changing bank regulatory conditions, policies, whether arising as new legislation or regulatory initiatives or changes in our regulatory classifications, that could lead to restrictions on activities of banks generally or as to the Bank, including specifically the formal order between the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the Company and the Bank, (9) failure to comply with the written regulatory agreement under which the Company is subject and (10) unknown economic impacts caused by the State of California's budget issues, including the effect on Federal spending due to sequestration required by the Budget Control Act of 2011. Management cannot predict at this time the severity or duration of the effects of the recent business slowdown on the Company's specific business activities and profitability. Weaker or a further decline in capital and consumer spending, and related recessionary trends could adversely affect the Company's performance in a number of ways including decreased demand for our products and services and increased credit losses. Likewise, changes in interest rates, among other things, could slow the rate of growth or put pressure on current deposit levels and affect the ability of borrowers to repay loans. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the statements are made, or to update earnings guidance including the factors that influence earnings.
