Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPFH) (the “Company” or “BPFH”) today reported first quarter 2016 GAAP Net Income Attributable to the Company of $18.0 million, compared to $15.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. First quarter 2016 diluted earnings per share were $0.21, compared to $0.17 in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $0.21 in the first quarter of 2015.

"We are pleased that our Company overall delivered growth in revenue and earnings," said Clayton G. Deutsch, CEO. "Our Private Bank produced solid performance, achieving growth goals while maintaining strong asset quality. At the same time, we continue to address challenges confronting our fee-based businesses. We remain focused on client acquisition, deepening relationships with our existing clients, and driving profitability gains in all of our businesses."

Core Fees and Income

Core Fees and Income increased 2% linked quarter to $37.7 million reflecting higher Other Banking Fee Income. Year-over-year, Core Fees and Income are down 6% due primarily to lower levels of AUM.

AUM decreased to $26.8 billion in the first quarter, down 3% from $27.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2015, reflecting negative net flows partly offset by positive market action. AUM decreased 11% year-over-year due to negative net flows and negative market action. The Company experienced first quarter 2016 AUM net outflows of $761 million, compared to net outflows of $543 million and $382 million in the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2015, respectively.

Net Interest Income

Net Interest Income for the first quarter was $49.9 million, up 4% from $48.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. On a year-over-year basis, Net Interest Income increased 8% from $46.1 million. The current quarter includes $1.1 million of interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans while the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2015 includes interest recoveries of $0.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Excluding interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans, Net Interest Income increased 1% linked quarter and 9% year-over-year.

Net Interest Margin was 2.96% for the first quarter, up eight basis points from 2.88% for the fourth quarter of 2015. Net Interest Margin was down four basis points from 3.00% for the first quarter of 2015. Excluding interest recovered on previous nonaccrual loans, Net Interest Margin was up 4 basis points linked quarter and up 1 basis point year-over-year to 2.90%.

Total Operating Expenses

Total Operating Expenses for the first quarter of 2016 were $66.7 million, down 1% from $67.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. On a year-over-year basis, Total Operating Expenses increased 5% from $63.4 million, primarily due to higher marketing, occupancy and restructuring expense. Restructuring Expense in the first quarter of 2016 was $1.1 million while the fourth quarter of 2015 included Restructuring Expense of $2.0 million.

Provision and Asset Quality

The Company recorded a provision credit of $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2016, compared to a provision credit of $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 and $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2015. The provision credit was driven by net recoveries of $1.1 million and a decline in commercial loans.

Criticized Loans increased 8% on a linked quarter basis and 2% year-over-year to $166.9 million. Nonaccrual Loans (“Nonaccruals”) decreased 8% to $24.4 million on a linked quarter basis. On a year-over-year basis, Nonaccruals decreased 24% from $32.1 million. As a percentage of Total Loans, Nonaccruals were 43 basis points at March 31, 2016, down 3 basis points from December 31, 2015, and down 18 basis points from March 31, 2015.

FOOTNOTES:
(1)	Net income from discontinued operations consists of contingent payments or expenses related to our divested affiliates, including Westfield Capital Management Company, LLC.

(2)	Adjustments to net income attributable to the Company to arrive at net income attributable to the common shareholders, as presented in these tables, include decrease/ (increase) in noncontrolling interests redemption value and dividends paid on preferred stock.

(3)	When the Company has positive net income from continuing operations attributable to the common shareholders, the Company adds additional shares to basic weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per share calculation. These additional shares reflect the assumed exercise, conversion, or contingent issuance of dilutive securities. If the additional shares would result in anti-dilution they would be excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. The potential dilutive shares relate to: unexercised stock options, unvested restricted stock, and unexercised stock warrants. See Part II. Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 16: Earnings Per Share" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for additional information.

(4)	The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as: Tangible Book Value Per Share and the Tangible Common Equity ("TCE") to Tangible Assets ("TA") ratio to provide information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with peers across the financial sector.

	Reconciliations from the Company's GAAP Total Equity to Total Assets ratio to the Non-GAAP TCE to TA ratio, and from GAAP Book Value to Non-GAAP Tangible Book Value are presented below:

	The Company calculates Tangible Assets by adjusting Total Assets to exclude Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

	The Company calculates Tangible Common Equity by adjusting Total Equity to exclude non-convertible Series D Preferred stock and exclude Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net.
