, /PRNewswire/ -- $87 million $140 million $0.41 $0.67 Net income Operating net income 1 Earnings per diluted common share Operating earnings per diluted common share 1 CEO Commentary "Our consistent, repeatable performance in 2024 carried through to the first quarter of 2025," said Clint Stein, President and CEO. "Although the global environment is rife with uncertainty, our operations remain steadfast. Our consistent approach to banking is a key contributor to Columbia's success through business and credit cycles, and our teams' dedication to fostering strong customer relationships serves as the cornerstone of our ability to thrive during historically volatile periods. Customer deposits increased notably during the first quarter, despite anticipated seasonal balance declines, highlighting the success of small business campaigns and our bankers' ability to win new relationships as we deploy our Business Bank of Choice strategy through our eight-state western footprint. Our announced acquisition of Pacific Premier Bancorp accelerates our expansion in Southern California by approximately a decade, advancing our opportunities and enhancing long-term shareholder value." –Clint Stein, President and CEO of Columbia Banking System, Inc. 1Q25 HIGHLIGHTS (COMPARED TO 4Q24) Net Interest Income and NIM •   Net interest income decreased by $12 million from the prior quarter, largely due to lower accretion income from the investment securities portfolio. •   Net interest margin was 3.60%, down 4 basis points from the prior quarter, as lower earning asset yields were not fully offset by lower funding costs. Lower accretion income contributed to a decline in the yield on investment securities. Non-Interest Income and Expense •   Non-interest income increased by $17 million due to the quarterly fluctuation in cumulative fair value accounting and hedges, which drove $15 million of the change. Income was also higher due to a loss on loan sales in the fourth quarter that did not repeat. •   Non-interest expense increased by $74 million primarily due to a legal settlement and severance expense, as well as seasonally higher payroll taxes. Credit Quality •   Net charge-offs were 0.32% of average loans and leases (annualized), compared to 0.27% in the prior quarter. The increase reflects the partial charge-off of a loan with a previously established reserve. •   Provision expense of $27 million compares to $28 million in the prior quarter. •   Non-performing assets to total assets was 0.35%, compared to 0.33% as of December 31, 2024. Capital •   Estimated total risk-based capital ratio of 12.8% and estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 10.6%. •   Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per common share on February 14, 2025, which was paid March 17, 2025. Notable Items •   Executed a successful small business and retail campaign using bundled solutions for customers without promotional pricing. The first quarter's campaign brought $425 million in new deposits to the bank. •   Opened our first branch location in Colorado, supporting our commercial, wealth, trust, retail business, and healthcare banking teams already serving customers in the market. •   We will host a conference call on April 23, 2025 to discuss our financial results and announced acquisition of Pacific Premier Bancorp, replacing the call previously scheduled for April 24, 2025. 1Q25 KEY FINANCIAL DATA PERFORMANCE METRICS 1Q25 4Q24 1Q24 Return on average assets 0.68 % 1.10 % 0.96 % Return on average common equity 6.73 % 10.91 % 10.01 % Return on average tangible common equity 1 9.45 % 15.41 % 14.82 % Operating return on average assets 1 1.10 % 1.15 % 1.04 % Operating return on average common equity 1 10.87 % 11.40 % 10.89 % Operating return on average tangible common equity 1 15.26 % 16.11 % 16.12 % Net interest margin 3.60 % 3.64 % 3.52 % Efficiency ratio 69.06 % 54.61 % 60.57 % Operating efficiency ratio, as adjusted 1 55.11 % 52.51 % 56.97 % INCOME STATEMENT ($ in 000s, excl. per share data) 1Q25 4Q24 1Q24 Net interest income $424,995 $437,373 $423,362 Provision for credit losses $27,403 $28,199 $17,136 Non-interest income $66,377 $49,747 $50,357 Non-interest expense $340,122 $266,576 $287,516 Pre-provision net revenue 1 $151,250 $220,544 $186,203 Operating pre-provision net revenue 1 $211,833 $229,178 $200,683 Earnings per common share - diluted $0.41 $0.68 $0.59 Operating earnings per common share - diluted 1 $0.67 $0.71 $0.65 Dividends paid per share $0.36 $0.36 $0.36 BALANCE SHEET 1Q25 4Q24 1Q24 Total assets        $51.5B        $51.6B        $52.2B Loans and leases        $37.6B        $37.7B        $37.6B Deposits        $42.2B        $41.7B        $41.7B Book value per common share $24.93 $24.43 $23.68 Tangible book value per share 1 $17.86 $17.20 $16.03 Organizational UpdateColumbia Banking System, Inc. ("Columbia," the "Company," "we," or "our"), the parent company of Umpqua Bank, and Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. ("Pacific Premier") (Nasdaq: PPBI), the parent company of Pacific Premier Bank, National Association, jointly announced in a separate press release on April 23, 2025 that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement, pursuant to which Columbia will acquire Pacific Premier in an all-stock transaction. The combined company will have approximately $70 billion in assets and will be a market leader in the largest banking markets within the Western U.S. The acquisition, which is anticipated to close in the second half of 2025, is projected to deliver mid-teens earnings-per-share accretion and enhance scale in key market areas, including Southern California. Columbia and Pacific Premier will hold a joint conference call to discuss this announcement, and details are available in the "Earnings Presentation and Conference Call" section of this press release. During the first quarter, Columbia opened a branch location in Denver, Colorado. Our first retail office in Colorado supports our commercial, wealth, trust, retail business, and healthcare banking teams already serving customers in the market. We continue to make progress on our plans to open additional branches in the coming months in support of our customers and bankers. Net Interest IncomeNet interest income was $425 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $12 million from the prior quarter. The decrease reflects lower interest income that was only partially offset by lower funding costs, due in part to the reductions in the federal funds rate that occurred in November and December. Lower accretion income, primarily related to investment securities income, accounted for the majority of the decline in net interest income. Columbia's net interest margin was 3.60% for the first quarter of 2025, down 4 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2024. Lower earning asset yields were only partially offset by lower funding costs. Lower accretion income contributed to a decline in the yield on investment securities. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 14 basis points from the prior quarter to 2.52% for the first quarter of 2025, which compares to 2.51% for the month of March and 2.50% as of March 31, 2025. Columbia's cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 18 basis points from the prior quarter to 2.80% for the first quarter of 2025, which compares to 2.76% for the month of March and 2.74% as of March 31, 2025. Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional net interest margin change details and interest rate sensitivity information as well as to our non-GAAP disclosures in this press release for the impact of purchase accounting accretion and amortization on individual line items. Non-interest IncomeNon-interest income was $66 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $17 million from the prior quarter. The increase was driven by quarterly changes in fair value adjustments and mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") hedging activity, due to interest rate fluctuations during the quarter, collectively resulting in a net fair value gain of $9 million in the first quarter compared to a net fair value loss of $6 million in the fourth quarter, as detailed in our non-GAAP disclosures. Excluding these items, non-interest income was up $2 million2 between periods, due primarily to a $2 million loss on the sale of loans in the fourth quarter that did not repeat in the first quarter. Other changes include a slower level of customer activity that is typical for the first quarter. Non-interest Expense Non-interest expense was $340 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $74 million from the prior quarter. The quarter included a $55 million accrual related to a legal settlement, as previously disclosed, and $15 million in severance expense. Excluding the legal settlement, exit and disposal costs, and merger and restructuring expense, which includes the severance expense, non-interest expense was $270 million2, up $7 million from the prior quarter, due primarily to higher payroll taxes and elevated legal expense separate from the legal settlement. Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional expense details. Balance SheetTotal consolidated assets were $51.5 billion as of March 31, 2025, down slightly from $51.6 billion as of December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents were $2.1 billion as of March 31, 2025, up from $1.9 billion as of December 31, 2024. Including secured off-balance sheet lines of credit, total available liquidity was $19.0 billion as of March 31, 2025, representing 37% of total assets, 45% of total deposits, and 131% of uninsured deposits. Available-for-sale securities, which are held on balance sheet at fair value, were $8.2 billion as of March 31, 2025, a decrease of $46 million relative to December 31, 2024, as paydowns slightly offset an increase in the fair value of the portfolio. Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our securities portfolio and liquidity position. Gross loans and leases were $37.6 billion as of March 31, 2025, a decrease of $65 million relative to December 31, 2024. "Loan payoffs and a slower pace of origination volume contributed to a slight portfolio contraction in the quarter," commented Tory Nixon, President of Umpqua Bank. "Our teams remain focused on relationship-driven loan volume, which expands our deposit and core fee income generation opportunities as we deliver needs-based solutions to our customers and prospects." Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our loan portfolio, which include underwriting characteristics, the composition of our commercial portfolios, and disclosure related to our office portfolio. Total deposits were $42.2 billion as of March 31, 2025, an increase of $497 million relative to December 31, 2024, as customer deposits increased $440 million during the quarter. "We experienced strong customer deposit growth in March, following anticipated seasonal balance declines earlier in the quarter," stated Mr. Nixon. "Our small business campaigns continue to bring new business to the bank, complementing our success with middle-market and corporate customers." Customer deposit growth was used to help pay down $550 million in FHLB Advances during the first quarter. Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to deposit characteristics and flows. Credit QualityThe allowance for credit losses was $439 million, or 1.17% of loans and leases, as of March 31, 2025, compared to $441 million, or 1.17% of loans and leases, as of December 31, 2024. The provision for credit losses was $27 million for the first quarter of 2025, and reflects credit migration trends, charge-off activity, and changes in the economic forecasts used in credit models. Net charge-offs were 0.32% of average loans and leases (annualized) for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 0.27% for the fourth quarter of 2025. Net charge-offs in the FinPac portfolio were $17 million in the first quarter, down from $19 million in the fourth quarter as improvement continues within the transportation sector of the portfolio. Net charge-offs excluding the FinPac portfolio were $13 million in the first quarter, compared to $6 million in the fourth quarter. The increase reflects the partial charge-off of a loan with a previously established reserve. Non-performing assets were $178 million, or 0.35% of total assets, as of March 31, 2025, compared to $170 million, or 0.33% of total assets, as of December 31, 2024. Please refer to the Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to the allowance for credit losses and other credit trends. CapitalColumbia's book value per common share was $24.93 as of March 31, 2025, compared to $24.43 as of December 31, 2024. The increase primarily reflects a change in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ("AOCI") to $(358) million at March 31, 2025, compared to $(462) million at the prior quarter-end. The change in AOCI is due primarily to a decrease in the tax-effected net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities to $337 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to $434 million as of December 31, 2024. Tangible book value per common share3 was $17.86 as of March 31, 2025, compared to $17.20 as of December 31, 2024. Columbia's estimated total risk-based capital ratio was 12.8%, and its estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 10.6% as of March 31, 2025, compared to 12.8% and 10.5%, respectively, as of December 31, 2024. Columbia remains above current "well-capitalized" regulatory minimums. The regulatory capital ratios as of March 31, 2025 are estimates, pending completion and filing of Columbia's regulatory reports.  Earnings Presentation and Conference Call InformationColumbia's Q1 2025 Earnings Presentation provides additional disclosure.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresIn addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends, and our financial position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes, and operating pre-provision net revenue and operating return on tangible common equity are also used as part of our incentive compensation program for our executive officers. We, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitution for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Although there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements or historical performance: changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions, and in conditions impacting the banking industry specifically; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal, monetary and trade policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board or the effects of any declines in housing and commercial real estate prices, high or increasing unemployment rates, continued or renewed inflation, the impact of proposed or imposed tariffs by the U.S. government or retaliatory tariffs proposed or imposed by U.S. trading partners that could have an adverse impact on customers or any recession or slowdown in economic growth particularly in the western United States; volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; the impact of bank failures or adverse developments at other banks on general investor sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks; changes in interest rates that could significantly reduce net interest income and negatively affect asset yields and valuations and funding sources, including impacts on prepayment speeds; competitive pressures among financial institutions and nontraditional providers of financial services, including on product pricing and services; concentrations within Columbia's or Pacific Premier's loan portfolio (including commercial real estate loans), large loans to certain borrowers, and large deposits from certain clients; the success, impact, and timing of Columbia's and Pacific Premier's respective business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services and Columbia's and Pacific Premier's ability to successfully implement efficiency and operational excellence initiatives; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations; changes in laws or regulations; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the merger agreement to which Columbia and Pacific Premier are parties; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Columbia or Pacific Premier; delays in completing the Transaction; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Transaction); the failure to obtain shareholder or stockholder approvals, as applicable, or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the closing of the Transaction on a timely basis or at all; changes in Columbia's or Pacific Premier's share price before closing, including as a result of the financial performance of the other party prior to closing, or more generally due to broader stock market movements, and the performance of financial companies and peer group companies; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the Transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where Columbia and Pacific Premier do business; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed Transaction that may impact the parties' ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic Transactions; the possibility that the Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; diversion of management's attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; the ability to complete the Transaction and integration of Columbia and Pacific Premier promptly and successfully; the dilution caused by Columbia's issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the Transaction; and other factors that may affect the future results of Columbia and Pacific Premier.  Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in Columbia's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") (available here) and available on Columbia's investor relations website, www.columbiabankingsystem.com, under the heading "SEC Filings," and in other documents Columbia files with the SEC, and in Pacific Premier's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which is on file with the SEC (available here) and available on Pacific Premier's website, www.investors.ppbi.com, under the heading "SEC Filings" and in other documents Pacific Premier files with the SEC.
