Consolidated net income available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2009 was $20.6 million, or $0.61 per diluted common share, compared to $7.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2009, and $25.9 million, or $0.77 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2008.
Highlights of our third quarter 2009 results included:
- Provision for loan losses of $8.0 million, a decrease of $13.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to: (i) an $11.4 million partial recovery of a single loan that was previously charged off in the first quarter of 2009, (ii) a reduction of required reserves for impaired loans, and (iii) an overall improvement in the credit quality of our loan portfolio.
- A decrease of $23.8 million and $39.3 million in our allowance for loan losses and nonperforming loans, respectively, primarily due to the finalization of the HRJ Capital ("HRJ") transaction, as well as the charge-offs of certain other impaired loans from our software and hardware client portfolios.
- An increase in net interest income (fully taxable equivalent basis) of $5.1 million, primarily due to growth in average investment securities balances of $681.9 million, or 37.2 percent, from purchases of agency-issued collateralized mortgage obligations and U.S. agency securities.
- A decrease of $9.2 million in noninterest expense, primarily due to lower Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") assessments in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2009.
- Growth in average deposit balances of $477.8 million, or 5.7 percent, to $8.9 billion, primarily due to the desire among some clients to benefit from the security provided by the FDIC insurance for noninterest-bearing accounts, as well as to the lack of attractive alternative investment opportunities due to the current low interest rate environment.
- A decrease in average loan balances of $235.5 million, or 4.9 percent, reflecting continued efforts by some clients to de-leverage their businesses.
Consolidated net income available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $16.6 million, or $0.50 per diluted common share, compared to $74.2 million, or $2.17 per diluted common share, for the comparable 2008 period.
"While the economy is still vulnerable, interest rates remain low, and we see many challenges ahead, we are doing the right things to deliver the best possible results, given the current environment," said Ken Wilcox, president and CEO of SVB Financial Group. "Credit quality is improving overall, and we were able to satisfactorily resolve a number of outstanding credit issues in the third quarter. We are also seeing signs of relative improvement among our client base, including improving technology sales pipelines among our technology clients, and stabilizing portfolio company valuations. It is too early to know whether we are at the beginning of a sustainable market recovery. Until that becomes clearer, we will continue to focus on leveraging our financial and market strength to further enhance our competitive position and our ability to deliver stable credit performance."

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was $97.4 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $92.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $95.2 million for the third quarter of 2008. The following table provides a summary of changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to both volume and rate changes from the second to the third quarter of 2009. Changes that are not solely due to either volume or rate are allocated in proportion to the percentage changes in average volume and average rate:

====== ====== ======
The change in net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, from the second to the third quarter of 2009, was primarily attributable to the following:
- An increase in interest income of $4.7 million from our interest-earning investment securities portfolio, primarily related to the growth in average balances of $681.9 million due to new investments. These investments were primarily for purchases of agency-issued collateralized mortgage obligations and U.S. agency securities, which were purchased with excess cash as a result of our continued growth in deposits.
- A decrease in interest expense of $0.9 million from our long-term debt, driven by a decrease in interest expense associated with interest rate swap agreements for our 5.70% senior and 6.05% subordinated notes, due to lower London Interbank Offered Rates ("LIBOR").
- A decrease in interest expense of $0.8 million from interest-bearing deposits due to our decision to lower certain deposit interest rates in the third quarter of 2009 to reflect current market interest rates.
- The above increases were partially offset by a decrease in interest income from our loan portfolio of $1.2 million driven principally by a decrease in average loan balances of $235.5 million, partially offset by an increase in recovered interest from previously charged-off loans. Our average prime-lending rate was 4.00 percent for both the second and third quarters of 2009.
Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 3.70 percent for the third quarter of 2009, compared to 3.71 percent for the second quarter of 2009 and 5.70 percent for the third quarter of 2008. The nominal decrease from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily a result of a decline in loan balances and an increase in deposits, which were invested in overnight cash with the Federal Reserve earning 25 basis points throughout the third quarter of 2009. The decline was partially offset by new investments in interest-earning securities.
Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 3.79 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to 5.85 percent for the comparable 2008 period. While net interest margin declined year-over-year, net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, increased to $281.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $273.9 million for the comparable 2008 period.
On an average basis, for the third quarter of 2009, 71.0 percent, or $3.3 billion, of our outstanding gross loans were variable-rate loans that adjust at prescribed measurement dates upon a change in our prime-lending rate or other variable indices. This compares to 71.0 percent, or $3.5 billion, for the second quarter of 2009 and 73.4 percent, or $3.7 billion, for the third quarter of 2008.
Investment Securities
Our investment securities portfolio consists of both a fixed income investment portfolio, which primarily represents interest-earning securities, and a non-marketable securities portfolio, which primarily represents investments managed as part of our funds management business. Total investment securities were $3.5 billion at September 30, 2009, compared to $2.6 billion at June 30, 2009 and $1.8 billion at September 30, 2008. The increase from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily due to purchases of agency-issued collateralized mortgage obligations and U.S. agency securities as part of our overall investment strategy to invest excess cash from our continued growth in deposits.
Average interest-earning investment securities were $2.5 billion for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $1.8 billion for the second quarter of 2009 and $1.4 billion for the third quarter of 2008.
Non-marketable securities were $507.9 million ($211.9 million net of noncontrolling interests) as of September 30, 2009, compared to $478.7 million ($193.6 million net of noncontrolling interests) as of June 30, 2009. The increase from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily attributable to additional capital calls for fund investments in the third quarter of 2009. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP non-marketable securities, net of noncontrolling interests, are provided below under the section "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Loans
Average loans, net of unearned income, were $4.5 billion for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $4.8 billion for the second quarter of 2009 and $4.9 billion for the third quarter of 2008. The decrease in average loan balances from the second to the third quarter of 2009 came primarily from decreases in loans to software and hardware clients, reflecting continued efforts by some clients to de-leverage their businesses. Period-end loans, net of unearned income, were $4.7 billion at September 30, 2009, compared to $4.8 billion at June 30, 2009 and $5.3 billion at September 30, 2008.
Our nonaccrual loans totaled $72.2 million at September 30, 2009, compared to $111.4 million at June 30, 2009 and $9.1 million at September 30, 2008. The allowance for loan losses related to nonaccrual loans was $23.4 million, $44.6 million and $5.9 million at September 30, 2009, June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008, respectively. The decrease in nonaccrual loans and related allowance for loan losses from the second to the third quarter of 2009 came primarily from the finalization of the HRJ transaction as well as the charge-offs of other impaired loans from our software and hardware client portfolios.
The following table provides a summary of our concentration of clients with loans individually greater than $20 million by industry sector at September 30, 2009, June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008:

Average deposits were $8.9 billion for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $8.4 billion for the second quarter of 2009 and $4.8 billion for the third quarter of 2008. The increase in average deposit balances from the second to the third quarter of 2009 came primarily from our noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which grew by $240.6 million to $5.4 billion, and our sweep deposits, which grew by $148.8 million to $1.9 billion.
Growth in average balances of noninterest-bearing deposits in the third quarter of 2009 was primarily due to the desire among some clients to benefit from the security provided by the FDIC insurance for noninterest-bearing accounts, as well as to the lack of attractive alternative investment opportunities due to the current low interest rate environment. Growth in average balances of our sweep deposits in the third quarter of 2009 was primarily due to increases in balances from our corporate technology clients.
Period-end deposits were $10.1 billion at September 30, 2009, compared to $9.0 billion at June 30, 2009 and $5.4 billion at September 30, 2008. The increase at September 30, 2009 compared to June 30, 2009 was primarily driven by a large deposit of approximately $0.9 billion related to client capital calls for investments on the last day of the third quarter of 2009, which was subsequently withdrawn.
Long-Term Debt
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted the FASB guidance on debt with conversion options (ASC 470-20 formerly known as FSP APB 14-1), which required a change in the accounting treatment for our convertible debt instruments. The standard requires that the proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt instruments be allocated between a liability and an equity component in a manner that reflects the entity's non-convertible debt borrowing rate when interest expense is recognized in subsequent periods. The resulting debt discount is amortized over the period the convertible debt is expected to be outstanding as additional non-cash interest expense. Historical financial statements for 2007 and 2008 are required to be adjusted retrospectively to conform to the standard's new accounting treatment for both our zero-coupon convertible subordinated notes, which matured on June 15, 2008 and our 3.875% convertible senior notes due April 15, 2011.
As a result of adopting these requirements, our net income available to common stockholders for both the second and third quarters of 2009 decreased by $0.3 million. Details of certain prior period revised items related to the adoption of this guidance are provided below under the section "Changes to Prior Period Balances."
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $34.3 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $28.3 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $40.4 million for the third quarter of 2008.
The increase in noninterest income from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily driven by the following factors:
* Net gains on investment securities of $3.9 million for the third
quarter of 2009, compared to net losses of $6.8 million for the second
quarter of 2009 and net losses of $0.9 million for the third quarter
of 2008. The net gains of $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2009
were primarily due to realized gains of $3.1 million from
distributions made to our managed funds of funds and unrealized gains
of $2.9 million from our managed co-investment funds as a result of
higher valuations. These gains were partially offset by impairment
losses of $2.2 million primarily from our private equity fund
investments, due principally to sustained valuation decreases in
underlying portfolio companies. The following table provides a
summary of net gains (losses) on investment securities for the
three months ended September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009:

As of September 30, 2009, we held investments, either directly or through

quarter of 2009, compared to net losses of $2.8 million for the second

(1) Represents the change in fair value of foreign exchange forward
contracts used to economically reduce our foreign exchange exposure
related to certain foreign currency denominated loans. Revaluations
of foreign currency denominated loans are recorded on the line item
"Other" as part of noninterest income, a component of consolidated
net income (loss).
(2) Represents net gains on covered call options by one of our
consolidated sponsored debt funds.
The decrease in net (losses) gains on derivative instruments from
the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily driven by the
following factors:
o Net losses of $0.1 million from foreign exchange forward
contracts hedging our foreign currency denominated loans in the
third quarter of 2009, compared to net losses of $4.5 million
in the second quarter of 2009. These losses were offset by
comparable net gains included in other noninterest income.
o Net losses on equity warrant assets of $1.3 million in the
third quarter of 2009, compared to net gains of $1.2 million in
the second quarter of 2009. The net losses on equity warrant
assets of $1.3 million was driven by $1.2 million from warrant
terminations, net losses of $0.5 million from the exercise of
certain warrant positions and $0.4 million from valuation
decreases in our private warrant portfolio. These losses were
partially offset by gains of $0.8 million from share price
increases of certain investments in our public company warrant
portfolio.
* A decrease in other noninterest income of $6.6 million, mainly
driven by net gains of $0.2 million from revaluation of our foreign
currency denominated loans and non-marketable investment securities
for the third quarter of 2009, compared to net gains of $5.7 million
for the second quarter of 2009. The net gains of $0.2 million for
the third quarter of 2009 were primarily due to revaluation gains
from one of our private equity fund investments.
Non-GAAP noninterest income, net of noncontrolling interests, was $29.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $34.4 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $39.4 million for the third quarter of 2008. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP noninterest income and non-GAAP net gains (losses) on investment securities, both of which exclude amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, are provided below under the section "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $79.8 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $89.0 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $80.4 million for the third quarter of 2008.

(1) Other noninterest expense includes professional services, premises
and equipment, net occupancy, business development and travel,
correspondent bank fees, and other noninterest expenses. For further
details of noninterest expense items, please refer to "Interim
Consolidated Statements of Income".
The decrease in noninterest expense from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily attributable to the following:
- A decrease of $6.0 million in FDIC assessments primarily attributable to a $5.0 million special assessment recorded in the second quarter of 2009, mandated for all banks by the FDIC, as well as from a decrease in fees from lower assessment rates calculated by the FDIC in the third quarter of 2009.
- A decrease of $3.3 million in other noninterest expense.
- A provision for unfunded credit commitments of $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to a (reduction of) provision of $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2009. Total unfunded credit commitments were $4.8 billion as of September 30, 2009, compared to $5.0 billion at June 30, 2009.
Non-GAAP noninterest expense, net of noncontrolling interests, was $76.9 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $86.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $77.6 million for the third quarter of 2008. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP noninterest expense, net of noncontrolling interests, are provided below under the section "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Income Tax Expense
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted new accounting standards (ASC 810-10-65, formerly known as SFAS No. 160), which requires us to clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the Company and the interests of the noncontrolling owners by presenting noncontrolling interests after net income (loss) in our interim consolidated statements of income. As a result, our effective tax rate is calculated by dividing income tax expense by the sum of income before income tax expense and the net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.
Our effective tax rate was 41.1 percent for the third quarter of 2009, compared to 38.8 percent for the second quarter of 2009 and 39.2 percent for the third quarter of 2008. The increase in the tax rate from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was primarily attributable to the lower tax impact of tax advantaged investments on our overall pre-tax income as well as the tax impact of higher non-deductible officers' compensation expense on overall pre-tax income.
Our effective tax rate was 44.2 percent for nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to 40.9 percent for the comparable 2008 period. The increase in the tax rate was primarily attributable to the tax impact of the $4.1 million non-tax deductible goodwill impairment associated with eProsper in the first quarter of 2009 as well as the tax impact of higher non-deductible officers' compensation expense on overall pre-tax income.

Our provision for loan losses was $8.0 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of $13.4 million from the second quarter of 2009. Our provision for loan losses of $8.0 million for the third quarter of 2009 is detailed as follows:
- Gross loan charge-offs of $46.6 million, primarily from our software, venture capital/private equity and hardware client portfolios. Gross loan charge-offs included $27.4 million of loans that were previously included as nonperforming loans, with specific reserves of $34.9 million. These charge-offs were the primary driver for the $39.3 million decrease in our nonperforming loans from the second to the third quarter of 2009.
- Loan recoveries of $14.8 million, primarily due to a partial recovery of $11.4 million from a loan within our hardware industry portfolio that was charged-off in the first quarter of 2009. The remaining recoveries of $3.4 million were primarily from our life sciences and software client portfolios.
- Our net loan charge-offs of $31.8 million, as a percentage of average total gross loans (annualized) was 2.75 percent for the third quarter of 2009, compared to our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total gross loans (annualized) of 1.85 percent for the third quarter of 2009. Net loan charge-offs of 2.75 percent for the third quarter of 2009 included the finalization of the HRJ transaction and the charge-offs of certain other impaired loans.
As shown in the table below, we believe our allowance for loan losses of 1.85 percent is indicative of ongoing levels of future charge-offs.

In July 2009, an independent asset management firm announced that it had closed its transaction with HRJ to assume the management of HRJ's private equity and real estate funds of funds. The finalization of this transaction in the third quarter of 2009 had a favorable impact on our overall allowance for loan losses.
Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to a net loss of $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2009 and a net loss of $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2008. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2009 was primarily a result of the following:
- Gains on investment securities (including carried interest) attributable to noncontrolling interests of $4.9 million, stemming mainly from gains of $2.5 million from our managed funds of funds and $2.3 million from our managed co-investment funds.
- Noninterest expense of $2.9 million, principally related to management fees paid by the noncontrolling interests to the general partner entities managed by SVB Capital.
Capital
Net income available to common stockholders was reduced by $3.6 million and $3.5 million for the third and second quarters of 2009, respectively, related to dividends and discount amortization in connection with our preferred stock issued under the Capital Purchase Program ("CPP") on December 12, 2008.
Accumulated other comprehensive income increased by $21.0 million to $25.5 million as of September 30, 2009, compared to $4.5 million as of June 30, 2009, primarily due to favorable increases in the fair value of our fixed income investment portfolio due to declining long-term interest rates and improvements in market liquidity.
Additional paid-in-capital increased by $5.9 million to $92.4 million as of September 30, 2009, compared to $86.5 as of June 30, 2009, primarily due to stock option exercises and share-based compensation expenses in the third quarter of 2009.
Outlook for the Year Ending December 31, 2009
Our outlook for the year ending December 31, 2009 is provided below on a GAAP basis, unless otherwise noted.

2009 and June 30, 2009, balance also includes $3.1 billion deposited

assets as they were noninterest-earning assets. These investments
primarily consisted of non-marketable securities.
(6) Balances for all periods presented reflect our adoption of ASC
470-20 (formerly known as FSP APB 14-1). Refer to "Long-Term Debt"
discussion for more details. Amounts for the quarter ended September
30, 2008 have been retrospectively adjusted.

* Certain amounts have been revised to reflect the correction of
immaterial errors associated with previously recognized gains and
losses on foreign exchange contracts, which is included under other
noninterest income. Refer to "Changes to Prior Period Balances"
section below for more details. Amounts for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 have been revised.
(1) Includes average interest-bearing deposits in other financial
institutions of $179.0 million and $90.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, balance also includes $2.9 billion
deposited at the Federal Reserve Bank, earning interest at the
Federal Funds target rate.
(2) Yields on interest-earning investment securities do not give effect
to changes in fair value that are reflected in other comprehensive
income.
(3) Interest income on non-taxable investment securities is presented on
a fully taxable equivalent basis using the federal statutory tax
rate of 35.0 percent for all periods presented.
(4) Nonaccrual loans are reflected in the average balances of loans.
(5) Average investment securities of $481.1 million and $369.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively,
were classified as other assets as they were noninterest-earning
assets. These investments primarily consisted of non-marketable
securities.
(6) Balances for all periods presented reflect our adoption of ASC
470-20 (formerly known as FSP APB 14-1). Refer to "Long-Term Debt"
discussion for more details. Amounts for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 have been retrospectively adjusted.
(7) Our 2009 adoption of new accounting standards (ASC 810-10-65,
formerly known as SFAS No. 160) required us to reclassify our
presentation of noncontrolling interests.

institutions.
Average client investment funds decreased by $329.0 million to $16.1 billion for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $16.5 billion for the second quarter of 2009, primarily due to a larger number of clients opting to be covered by FDIC insurance on deposits held in noninterest-bearing deposit accounts rather than invest in other options available in the current low interest rate environment.
Period-end total client investment funds were $16.4 billion at September 30, 2009, compared to $16.0 billion at June 30, 2009 and $21.5 billion at September 30, 2008.
Changes to Prior Period Balances
During the second quarter of 2009, we determined that we had incorrectly recognized certain gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts in prior periods. The cumulative pre-tax effect of the error was $6.2 million, or $3.8 million after-tax and is considered to be immaterial to the prior periods. As such, the affected prior period results have been revised. The table below highlights certain revised prior period items related to this revision and to the adoption of ASC 470-20 (formerly known as FSP APB 14-1):

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we use certain non-GAAP measures (non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP noninterest income, non-GAAP net (losses) gains on investment securities, non-GAAP noninterest expense, and non-GAAP financial ratios) of financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirement.
In particular, in this press release, we use certain non-GAAP measures that exclude from net income and certain other financial line items in certain periods:
- Income and expense attributable to noncontrolling interests - As part of our funds management business, we recognize the entire income or loss from certain funds where we own less than 100 percent. We are required under GAAP to consolidate 100 percent of the results of the funds that we are deemed to control or in which we have a majority ownership. Similarly, we are required under GAAP to consolidate the results of eProsper, of which we own 65 percent. The relevant amounts attributable to investors other than us are reflected under "Net (Income) Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests." Our net income available to common stockholders reported in that section includes only the portion of income or loss related to our ownership interest.
- Non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge of $4.1 million resulting from changes in our outlook for future financial performance of eProsper.
- Non-tax deductible noninterest expense of $3.9 million related to the conversion premium value of certain of our zero-coupon convertible subordinated notes that were converted prior to their maturity.
In addition, in this press release, we use certain non-GAAP financial ratios that are not required by GAAP or exclude certain financial items from their calculations that are otherwise required under GAAP:
- Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio - This ratio is not required by GAAP or applicable bank regulatory requirements, and is used by management to evaluate the adequacy of the Company's capital levels. Our ratio is calculated by dividing total SVBFG stockholder's equity, by total assets, after reducing both amounts by acquired intangibles and goodwill. The manner in which this ratio is calculated varies among companies. Accordingly, our ratio is not necessarily comparable to similar measures of other companies.
- Non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio - This ratio excludes certain financial items that are otherwise required under GAAP. It is calculated by dividing noninterest expense (excluding goodwill and the Coco Loss for applicable periods) by total taxable equivalent income, after reducing both amounts by taxable equivalent losses (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests for applicable periods.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures (as applicable), provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by: (i) excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, where indicated, or certain items that do not occur in every reporting period, or (ii) providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirement. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate a comparison of our performance to prior periods. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net income or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the financial table below, we have provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure.
