SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 18, 2019 / Seacoast Commerce Banc Holdings (OTC Pink: SCBH) ("Company"), the holding company of Seacoast Commerce Bank ("Bank"), today reported unaudited consolidated net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019, of $3.6 million versus 2018 second quarter unaudited consolidated net income of $3.3 million, an 8.5% increase. On a diluted per share basis, net income rose 7.0% to $0.36 per share, versus $0.34 per share in 2018. Additionally, the Company reported second quarter return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE) and return on average assets (ROAA) of 16.41% and 1.30% respectively, compared to 17.84% and 1.34% for the second quarter of 2018.

Richard M. Sanborn, President & Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The second quarter of 2019 was a continuation of our company's consistent operating results, with exceptional growth in all our business lines. SBA loan production was up 28.6% and commercial lending up 19.8%. Even more impressive was our deposit growth with overall deposits up $234 million, or 30.1%, driven by our 1031 exchange division, which had growth of $163.4 million. While 1031 growth was tremendous, it was driven by several large quarter-end exchanges that we expect to run off in the third quarter, tempering our expected third quarter deposit growth. Also of importance in the second quarter was the announcement of our plan to open a full-service branch in Las Vegas, Nevada. Over the years, we have had many requests from existing clients and prospects who have business operations in Nevada, requesting we open a branch there. Given the commitments we have already received, we see tremendous opportunity in Las Vegas and look forward to opening a branch there soon. Going forward, we remain optimistic as we continue with our expansion plans."

Allan W. Arendsee, Chairman of the Board, stated, "The Board of Directors is very pleased with the second quarter's financial performance and our expectations for the second-half of the year remain optimistic. The management team is executing on our business plan while continuing to look for additional opportunities where we can add to shareholder value. While growth often requires resources, our team has continued to produce exceptional returns even while using resources to grow. Our continued strong financial results also allowed us to return more capital back to our shareholders, which we accomplished with the announcement of a 10% dividend increase. As always, the Board of Directors believes that the right plan is in place to continue providing shareholders with an exceptional return on their investment over the long-term."
