Business unit managers that possess in-depth product knowledge and expertise in their respective lines of business systematically manage the business development efforts through the use of sales and relationship management technology tools.
Expansion through Acquisitions. Our acquisition strategy is twofold;twofold: first, we seek to acquire whole banks within and contiguous to the State of California to expand geographically and/or to consolidate in our existing markets,markets; and second, we seek to acquire lines of business that will complement our existing business banking strategy.

The deposit accounts are offered through our 1644 full depository branch network in California and Nevada, including our Irvine, California branch, which serves our nationwide through our HOA Banking unit.unit located in Dallas, Texas. The Company’s deposits consist of checking accounts, money market accounts, passbook savings, and certificates of deposit. TotalThe flow of deposits at December 31, 2015 were $2.2 billion, compared to $1.6 billion at December 31, 2014.

At December 31, 2018, we had $400 million$1.11 billion of certificate of deposit accounts maturing in one year or less.
We primarily rely on customer service, sales and marketing efforts, business development, cross-sellingcross selling of deposit products to loan customers, and long-standing relationships with customers to attract and retain local deposits. However, market interest rates and rates offered by competing financial institutions significantly affect the Company’s ability to attract and retain deposits. Additionally, from time to time, we will utilize both wholesale and brokered deposits to supplement our generation of deposits from businesses and consumers. At December 31, 2015,2018, we had $155$401.6 million in brokered deposits that were raised to help lengthen the overall maturity ofsupplement and diversify our liabilitiesdeposit funding and support our interest rate risk management strategies.The brokered deposits had a weighted average maturity of 155 months and an all inall-in cost of 66233 basis points.

Personnel
As of December 31, 2015,2018, we had 3321,016 full-time employees and three14 part-time employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit and we consider our relationship with our employees to be satisfactory.
Competition
We consider our Bank to be a community bank focused on the commercial banking business, with our primary market encompassing California. To a lesser extent, we also compete in several broader regional and national markets through our HOA Banking, SBA, Warehouse Lending, Franchise Lending and Income Property business units.CRE and multi-family lines of business.
The banking business is highly competitive with respect to virtually all products and services. The industry continues to consolidate, and unregulated competitors in the banking markets have focused products targeted at highly profitable customer segments. Many largely unregulated competitors are able to compete across geographic boundaries and provide customers increasing access to meaningful alternatives to nearly all significant banking services and products.
The banking business is dominated by a relatively small number of major banks with many offices operating over a wide geographical area. These banks have, among other advantages, the ability to finance wide-ranging and effective advertising campaigns, and to allocate their resources to regions of highest yield and demand. Many of the majornational or super-regional banks operating in our primary market area offer certain services that we do not offer directly but may offer indirectly through correspondent institutions. By virtue of their greater total capitalization, the majornational or super-regional banks also have substantiallysignificantly higher lending limits than those we do.us.
In addition to other local community banks, our competitors include commercial banks, savings banks, credit unions, and numerous non-banking institutions, such as finance companies, leasing companies, insurance companies, brokerage firms and investment banking firms. Increased competition has also developed from specialized finance and non-finance companies that offer wholesale finance, credit card, and other consumer finance services, including on-line banking services and personal financial software. Strong competition for deposit and loan products affects the rates of those products, as well as the terms on which they are offered to customers. Mergers between financial institutions have placed additional pressure on banks within the industry to streamline their operations, reduce expenses, and increase revenues to remain competitive.
Technological innovations have also resulted in increased competition in the financial services market. Such innovation has, for example, made it possible for non-depository institutions to offer customers automated transfer payment services that previously were considered traditional banking products. In addition, many customers now expect a choice of delivery systems and channels, including telephone, mobile phones, mail, home computer,computers, ATMs, self-service branches, and/or in-store branches. The sources of competition in such products include commercial banks, as well as credit unions, brokerage firms, money market and other mutual funds, asset management groups, finance and insurance companies, internet-only financial intermediaries and mortgage banking firms.
We work to anticipate and adapt to competitive conditions, whether it is by developing and marketing innovative products and services, adopting or developing new technologies that differentiate our products and services, or providing highly personalized banking services. We strive to distinguish ourselves from other community banks and financial services providers in our marketplace by providing a high level of service to enhance customer loyalty and to attract and retain business. However, no assurances can be given that our efforts to compete in our market areas will continue to be successful.
Supervision and Regulation
General. Bank holding companies, such as the Corporation, and banks, such as the Bank, are subject to extensive regulation and supervision by federal and state regulators. Various requirements and restrictions under state and federal law affect our operations, including reserves against deposits, ownership of deposit accounts, loans, investments, mergers and acquisitions, borrowings, dividends, locations of branch offices and capital requirements. The following is a summary of certain statutes and rules applicable to us. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statute and regulatory provision referred to below and is not intended to be an exhaustive description of all applicable statutes and regulations.
As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve. We are required to file with the Federal Reserve quarterly and annual reports and such additional information as the Federal Reserve may require pursuant to the BHCA. The Federal Reserve may conduct examinations of bank holding companies and their subsidiaries. The Corporation is also a bank holding company within the meaning of the California Financial Code (the “Financial Code”). As such, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to examination by, and may be required to file reports with, the DBO.
Under changes made by the Dodd-Frank Act, a bank holding company must act as a source of financial and managerial strength to each of its subsidiary banks and to commit resources to support each such subsidiary bank. In order to fulfill its obligations as a source of strength, the Federal Reserve may require a bank holding company to make capital injections into a troubled subsidiary bank. In addition, the Federal Reserve may charge the bank holding company with engaging in unsafe and unsound practices if the bank holding company fails to commit resources to a subsidiary bank or if it undertakes actions that the Federal Reserve believes might jeopardize the bank holding company’s ability to commit resources to such subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve also has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or to relinquish control of a nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal Reserve’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.
The CFPB is granted broad rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement powers under various federal consumer financial protection laws, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Truth in Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Fair Debt Collection Act, the Consumer Financial Privacy provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and certain other statutes. The CFPB has examination and primary enforcement authority with respect to depository institutions with $10 billion or more in assets, such as the Bank, which is our subsidiary depository institution. The CFPB has authority to prevent unfair, deceptive or abusive practices in connection with the offering of consumer financial products. The CFPB has issued regulatory guidance and has proposed, or will be proposing, regulations on issues that directly relate to our business. Although it is difficult to predict the full extent to which the CFPB’s final rules impact the operations and financial condition of the Bank, such rules may have a material impact on the Bank’s compliance costs, compliance risk and fee income.
As a California state-chartered commercial bank which is aand member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is subject to supervision, periodic examination and regulation by the DBO and the Federal Reserve. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the FDIC through the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”). Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, federal deposit insurance coverage was permanently increased to $250,000 per depositor for all insured depository institutions. As a result of this deposit insurance function, the FDIC also has certain supervisory authority and powers over the Bank as well as all other FDIC insured institutions. If, as a result of an examination of the Bank, the regulators should determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings, prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of the Bank’s operations are unsatisfactory or that the Bank or our management is violating or has violated any law or regulation, various remedies are available to the regulators. Such remedies include the power to enjoin unsafe or unsound practices, to require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in capital, to restrict growth, to assess civil monetary penalties, to remove officers and directors, and
ultimately, to request the FDIC to terminate the Bank’s deposit insurance. As a California-chartered commercial bank, the Bank is also subject to certain provisions of California law.
Legislative and regulatory initiatives, have been, and are likely to continue to be, introduced and implemented, which could substantially intensifynecessarily impact the regulation of the financial services industry.industry, are introduced from time-to-time. We cannot predict whether or when potential legislation or new regulations will be enacted, and if enacted, the effect that new legislation or any implemented regulations and supervisory policies would have on our financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, bank regulatory agencies can be more aggressive in responding to concerns and trends identified in examinations, which could result in an increased issuance of enforcement actions to financial institutions requiring action to address credit quality, liquidity and risk management and capital adequacy, as well as other safety and soundness concerns.
Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Act, which was signed into law onin July 21, 2010, implementsimplemented far-reaching changes across the financial regulatory landscape, including provisions that, among other things, repealed the federal prohibitions on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts, and increased the authority of the Federal Reserve to examine bank holding companies, such as the Corporation, and their non-bank subsidiaries.
Many aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act arecontinue to be subject to rulemaking and willhave yet to take full effect, over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on the Company, its customers or the financial industry generally. Provisions in the legislation that affect deposit insurance assessments, payment of interest on demand deposits and interchange fees could increase the costs associated with deposits as well as place limitations on certain revenues those deposits may generate.
In 2017, both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate introduced legislation that would repeal or modify provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and significantly impact financial services regulation. In May 2018, certain provisions of these bills were signed into law as part of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the “Economic Growth Act”) and repealed or modified significant portions of the Dodd-Frank Act. Specifically, the Economic Growth Act delayed implementation of rules related to the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, reformed and simplified certain Volcker Rule requirements, and raised the threshold for applying enhanced prudential standards to bank holding companies with total consolidated assets equal to or greater than $50 billion to those with total consolidated assets equal to or greater than $250 billion. While recent federal legislation, including the Economic Growth Act, has scaled back portions of the Dodd-Frank Act, uncertainty about the timing and scope of such changes, as well as the cost of complying with a new regulatory regime, remains.
Activities of Bank Holding Companies. The activities of bank holding companies are generally limited to the business of banking, managing or controlling banks, and other activities that the Federal Reserve has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Bank holding companies that qualify and register as “financial holding companies” are also able to engage in certain additional financial activities, such as merchant banking, and securities and insurance underwriting, subject to limitations set forth in federal law. We are not at this date a “financial holding company.”
The BHCA requires a bank holding company to obtain prior approval of the Federal Reserve before: (i) taking any action that causes a bank to become a controlled subsidiary of the bank holding company; (ii) acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of voting shares of any bank or bank holding company, if the acquisition results in the acquiring bank holding company having control of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities of such bank or bank holding company, unless such bank or bank holding company is majority-owned by the acquiring bank holding company before the acquisition; (iii) acquiring all or substantially all the assets of a bank; or (iv) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.
Permissible Activities of the Bank. Because California permits commercial banks chartered by the state to engage in any activity permissible for national banks, the Bank can form subsidiaries to engage in activates “closely related to banking” or “nonbanking” activities and expanded financial activities. However, to form a financial subsidiary, the Bank must be well capitalized and would be subject to the same capital deduction, risk management and affiliate transaction rules as applicable to national banks. Generally, a financial subsidiary is permitted to engage in activities that are “financial in nature” or incidental thereto, even though they are not permissible for the national bank to conduct directly within the bank. The definition of “financial in nature” includes, among other items, underwriting, dealing in or making a market in securities, including, for example, distributing shares of mutual funds. The subsidiary may not, however, engage as principal in underwriting insurance (other than credit life insurance), issue annuities or engage in real estate development, or investment or merchant banking.
Incentive Compensation. Federal banking agencies have issued guidance on incentive compensation policies intended to ensure that the incentive compensation policies of banking organizations do not undermine the safety and soundness of such organizations by encouraging excessive risk-taking. The guidance, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially affect the risk profile of an organization, is based upon the key principles that a banking organization’s incentive compensation arrangements should (i) provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond the organization’s ability to effectively identify and manage risks, (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors. In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act, the federal banking agencies prohibit incentive-based compensation arrangements that encourage inappropriate risk taking by covered financial institutions (generally institutions that have over $1 billion in assets) and are deemed to be excessive, or that may lead to material losses.
The Federal Reserve will review, as part of the regular, risk-focused examination process, the incentive compensation arrangements of banking organizations, such as the Company, that are not “large, complex banking organizations.” These reviews will be tailored to each organization based on the scope and complexity of the organization’s activities and the prevalence of incentive compensation arrangements. The findings of the supervisory initiatives will be included in reports of examination. Deficiencies will be incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the organization’s ability to make acquisitions and take other actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk-management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the organization’s safety and soundness and the organization is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies.
The scope and content of the U.S. banking regulators’ policies on executive compensation may continue to evolve in the near future. It cannot be determined at this time whether compliance with such policies will adversely affect the Company’s ability to hire, retain and motivate its key employees.
Capital Requirements. Bank holding companies and banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal agencies. These agencies may establish higher minimum requirements if, for example, a banking organization previously has received special attention or has a high susceptibility to interest rate risk. Risk-based capital requirements determine the adequacy of capital based on the risk inherent in various classes of assets and off-balance sheet items. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve must apply consolidated capital requirements to depository institution holding companies that are no less stringent than those currently applied to depository institutions. The Dodd-Frank Act additionally requires capital requirements to be countercyclical so that the required amount of capital increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction, consistent with safety and soundness.
Under federal regulations, bank holding companies and banks must meet certain risk-based capital requirements. Prior to the effectiveness of Basel III, on January 1, 2015, the risk-based capital requirements were as follows: a minimum ratio of 8% of total capital to risk-weighted assets, and a minimum ratio of 4% of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets. Under federal regulations in effect prior to the effectiveness of Basel III, “Tier 1 capital” is defined to include: common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, qualifying cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries (limited to a maximum of 25% of Tier 1 capital), and certain trust preferred securities.
Prior to January 1, 2015, federal banking regulators required banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio. For a banking organization rated in the highest of the five categories used by regulators to rate banking organizations, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets is 3%. For all banking organizations not rated in the highest category, the minimum leverage ratio must be at least 4%. To be deemed “well capitalized” under applicable federal regulations, banks must have a minimum leverage ratio of 5%.
Effective as of January 1, 2015, the Basel III final capital framework, among other things, (i) introduces as a new capital measure “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”), (ii) specifies that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii) defines CET1 narrowly by requiring that most adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of
capital and (iv) expands the scope of the adjustments as compared to existing regulations. WhenBeginning January 1, 2016, financial institutions are required to maintain a minimum capital conservation buffer to avoid restrictions on capital distributions such as dividends and equity repurchases and other payments such as discretionary bonuses to executive officers. The minimum capital conservation buffer is phased in over a four year transition period with minimum buffers of 0.625%, 1.25%, 1.875%, and 2.50% during 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.
As fully phased-in byon January 1, 2019, Basel III requiressubjects banks will be subject to the following risk-based capital requirements:
a minimum ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer”;
a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer, or 8.5%;
a minimum ratio of Total (Tier 1 plus Tier 2) capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer, or 10.5%; and
a minimum leverage ratio of 3%4%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to balance sheet exposures plus certain off-balance sheet exposures.
The Basel III final framework provides for a number of deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for example, the requirement that mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in non-consolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one such category exceeds 10% of CET1 or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1. Basel III also includes, as part of the definition of CET1 capital, a requirement that banking institutions include the amount of Additional Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”), which primarily consists of unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, which are not required to be treated as other-than-temporary impairment, net of tax) in calculating regulatory capital. Banking institutions had the option to opt out of including AOCI in CET1 capital if they elected to do so in their first regulatory report following January 1, 2015. As permitted by Basel III, the Company and the Bank have elected to exclude AOCI from CET1.
Basel III also includes the following significant provisions:
An additional countercyclical capital buffer to be imposed by applicable national banking regulators periodically at their discretion, with advance notice, that would be a CET1 add-on to the capital conservation buffer in the range of 0% and 2.5% when fully implemented;
Restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonuses applicable when capital ratios fall within the buffer zone;
Deduction from common equity of deferred tax assets that depend on future profitability to be realized; and
For capital instruments issued on or after January 13, 2013 (other than common equity), a loss-absorbency requirement that the instrument must be written off or converted to common equity if a triggering event occurs, either pursuant to applicable law or at the direction of the banking regulator. A triggering event is an event that would cause the banking organization to become nonviable without the write off or conversion, or without an injection of capital from the public sector.
Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer (or below the combined capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer, when the latter is applied) may face constraints on its ability to pay dividends, effect equity repurchases and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers, which constraints vary based on the amount of the shortfall. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016, at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019.
The Dodd-Frank Act excludes trust preferred securities issued after May 19, 2010, from being included in Tier 1 capital, unless the issuing company is a bank holding company with less than $500 million in total assets. Trust preferred securities issued prior to that date will continue to count as Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies with less than $15 billion in total assets, such as the Corporation. The trust preferred securities issued by our unconsolidated subsidiary capital trusttrusts qualify as Tier 1 capital up to a maximum limit of 25% of total Tier 1 capital. Any additional portion of our trust preferred securities would qualify as “Tier 2 capital.” As of December 31, 2015, the subsidiary trust had $10.3 million in trust preferred securities outstanding, of which $10.0 million qualifies as Tier 1 capital and $60 million in subordinated notes that qualifies as Tier 2 capital. Also,
In addition, goodwill and most intangible assets are deducted from Tier 1 capital. For purposes of applicable the total risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, Tier 2 capital (sometimes referred to as “supplementary capital”) is defined to include, subject to limitations: perpetual preferred stock not included in Tier 1 capital, intermediate-term preferred stock and any related surplus, certain hybrid capital instruments, perpetual debt and mandatory convertible debt securities, allowances for loan and lease losses, and intermediate-term subordinated debt instruments. The maximum amount of qualifying Tier 2 capital is 100% of qualifying Tier 1 capital. For purposes of determining total capital under federal guidelines, total capital equals Tier 1 capital, plus qualifying Tier 2 capital, minus investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, reciprocal holdings of bank holding company capital securities, and deferred tax assets and other deductions.
We had outstanding subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $110.3 million. Of this amount, $25.8 million is attributable to subordinated debentures issued to statutory trusts in connection with prior issuances of trust-preferred securities, $25.0 million of which qualifies as Tier 1 capital and $875,000 of which qualifies as Tier 2 capital, and $84.5 million is attributable to outstanding subordinated notes, all of which qualifies as Tier 2 capital.

Basel III changeschanged the manner of calculating risk weightedrisk-weighted assets. New methodologies for determining risk weightedrisk-weighted assets in the general capital rules are included, including revisions to recognition of credit risk mitigation, including a greater recognition of financial collateral and a wider range of eligible guarantors. They also include risk weighting of equity exposures and past due loans; and higher (greater than 100%) risk weighting for certain commercial real estate exposures that have higher credit risk profiles, including higher loan to value and equity components. In particular, loans categorized as “high-volatility commercial real estate” loans (“HVCRE loans”) are required to be assigned a 150% risk weighting, and require additional capital support. HVCRE loans are defined to include any credit facility that finances or has financed the acquisition, development or construction of real property, unless it finances: 1-4 family residential properties; certain community development investments; agricultural land used or usable for, and whose value is based on, agricultural use; or commercial real estate projects in which: (i) the loan to value is less than the applicable maximum supervisory loan to value ratio established by the bank regulatory agencies; (ii) the borrower has contributed cash or unencumbered readily marketable assets, or has paid development expenses out of pocket, equal to at least 15% of the appraised “as completed” value; (iii) the borrower contributes its 15% before the bank advances any funds; and (iv) the capital contributed by the borrower, and any funds internally generated by the project, is contractually required to remain in the project until the facility is converted to permanent financing, sold or paid in full.
In addition to the uniform risk-based capital guidelines and regulatory capital ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios. Future changes in regulations or practices could further reduce the amount of capital recognized for purposes of capital adequacy. Such a change could affect our ability to grow and could restrict the amount of profits, if any, available for the payment of dividends.
In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act requires the federal banking agencies to adopt capital requirements that address the risks that the activities of an institution poses to the institution and the public and private stakeholders, including risks arising from certain enumerated activities. The federal banking agencies will likely change existing capital guidelines or adopt new capital guidelines in the future pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act or other regulatory or supervisory changes. We will be assessing the impact on us of these new regulations, as they are proposed and implemented.
Basel III became applicable to the Corporation and the Bank on January 1, 2015. Overall, the Corporation believes that implementation of the Basel III Rule has not had and will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s or the Bank’s capital ratios, earnings, shareholder’s equity, or its ability to pay dividends, effect stock repurchases or pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers.
In September 2017, the federal bank regulators proposed to revise and simplify the capital treatment for certain deferred tax assets, mortgage servicing assets, investments in non-consolidated financial entities and minority interests for banking organizations, such as the Corporation and the Bank, that are not subject to the advanced approaches requirements. In November 2017, the federal banking regulators revised the Basel III Rules to extend the current transitional treatment of these items for non-advanced approaches banking organizations until the September 2017 proposal is finalized. The September 2017 proposal would also change the capital treatment of certain commercial real estate loans under the standardized approach, which we use to calculate our capital ratios.
In December 2017, the Basel Committee published standards that it described as the finalization of the Basel III post-crisis regulatory reforms (the standards are commonly referred to as “Basel IV”). Among other things, these standards revise the Basel Committee’s standardized approach for credit risk (including by recalibrating risk weights and introducing new capital requirements for certain “unconditionally cancellable commitments,” such as unused credit card lines of credit) and provides a new standardized approach for operational risk capital. Under the Basel framework, these standards will generally be effective on January 1, 2022, with an aggregate output floor phasing in through January 1, 2027. Under the current U.S. capital rules, operational risk capital requirements and a capital floor apply only to advanced approaches institutions, and not to the Corporation or the Bank. The impact of Basel IV on us will depend on the manner in which it is implemented by the federal bank regulators.
In 2018, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a variety of proposals and made statements
concerning regulatory capital standards. These proposals touched on such areas as commercial real estate exposure, credit loss allowances under generally accepted accounting principles, capital requirements for covered swap
entities, among others. Public statements by key agency officials have also suggested a revisiting of capital policy and supervisory approaches on a going-forward basis. We will be assessing the impact on us of these new regulations and supervisory approaches as they are proposed and implemented.
Prompt Corrective Action Regulations. The federal banking regulators are required to take “prompt corrective action” with respect to capital-deficient institutions. Federal banking regulations define, for each capital category, the levels at which institutions are “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” and “critically undercapitalized.” Under regulations effective through December 31, 2014,2018, the Bank was “well capitalized”,capitalized,” which means it had a total risk-basedcommon equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 10.0%6.5% or higher; a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.0%8.0% or higher; a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or higher; a leverage ratio of 5.0% or higher; and was not subject to any written agreement, order or directive requiring it to maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure.
As noted above, Basel III integrates the new capital requirements into the prompt corrective action category definitions. As of January 1, 2015, theThe following capital requirements applyhave applied to the Corporation for purposes of Section 38 of the FDIA.since January 1, 2015.
|
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Capital Category | Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital Ratio | | Leverage Ratio | | Tangible Equity to Assets | | Supplemental Leverage Ratio |
| Well Capitalized | 10% or greater | | 8% or greater | | 6.5% or greater | | 5% or greater | | n/a | | n/a |
| Adequately Capitalized | 8% or greater | | 6% or greater | | 4.5% or greater | | 4% or greater | | n/a | | 3% or greater |
| Undercapitalized | Less than 8% | | Less than 6% | | Less than 4.5% | | Less than 4% | | n/a | | Less than 3% |
| Significantly Undercapitalized | Less than 6% | | Less than 4% | | Less than 3% | | Less than 3% | | n/a | | n/a |
| Critically Undercapitalized | n/a | | n/a | | n/a | | n/a | | Less than 2% | | n/a |
As of December 31, 2015,2018, the Bank was “well capitalized” according to the guidelines as generally discussed below.above. As of December 31, 2015,2018, the Corporation had a consolidated ratio of 14.46%12.39% of total capital to risk-weighted assets, a consolidated ratio of 11.13% of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and a consolidated ratio of 10.30%10.88% of common equity Tier 1 capital, to risk-weighted assets and the Bank had a ratio of 13.45%12.28% of total capital to risk-weighted assets, a ratio of 11.87% of common equity Tier 1 capital and a ratio of 12.72%11.87% of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets.
An institution may be downgraded to, or deemed to be in, a capital category that is lower than indicated by its capital ratios if it is determined to be in an unsafe or unsound condition or if it receives an unsatisfactory examination rating with respect to certain matters. An institution’s capital category is determined solely for the purpose of applying prompt corrective action regulations, and the capital category may not constitute an accurate representation of the institution’s overall financial condition or prospects for other purposes.
In the event an institution becomes “undercapitalized,” it must submit a capital restoration plan. The capital restoration plan will not be accepted by the regulators unless each company having control of the undercapitalized institution guarantees the subsidiary’s compliance with the capital restoration plan up to a certain specified amount. Any such guarantee from a depository institution’s holding company is entitled to a priority of payment in bankruptcy. The aggregate liability of the holding company of an undercapitalized bank is limited to the lesser of 5% of the institution’s assets at the time it became undercapitalized or the amount necessary to cause the institution to be “adequately capitalized.” The bank regulators have greater power in situations where an institution becomes “significantly” or “critically” undercapitalized or fails to submit a capital restoration plan. In addition to requiring undercapitalized institutions to submit a capital restoration plan, bank regulations contain broad restrictions on certain activities of undercapitalized institutions including asset growth, acquisitions, branch
establishment and expansion into new lines of business. With certain exceptions, an insured depository institution is prohibited from making capital distributions, including dividends, and is prohibited from paying management fees to control persons if the institution would be undercapitalized after any such distribution or payment.
As an institution’s capital decreases, the regulators’ enforcement powers become more severe. A significantly undercapitalized institution is subject to mandated capital raising activities, restrictions on interest rates paid and transactions with affiliates, removal of management, and other restrictions. A regulator has limited discretion in dealing with a critically undercapitalized institution and is virtually required to appoint a receiver or conservator.
Banks with risk-based capital and leverage ratios below the required minimums may also be subject to certain administrative actions, including the termination of deposit insurance upon notice and hearing, or a temporary suspension of insurance without a hearing in the event the institution has no tangible capital.
In addition to the federal regulatory capital requirements described above, the DBO has authority to take possession of the business and properties of a bank in the event that the tangible stockholders’ equity of a bank is less than the greater of (i) 4% of the bank’s total assets or (ii) $1.0 million.
Dividends. It is the Federal Reserve’s policy that bank holding companies, such as the Corporation, should generally pay dividends on common stock only out of income available over the past year, and only if prospective earnings retention is consistent with the organization’s expected future needs and financial condition. It is also the Federal Reserve’s policy that bank holding companies should not maintain dividend levels that undermine their ability to be a source of strength to its banking subsidiaries. Additionally, in consideration of the current financial and economic environment, the Federal Reserve has indicated that bank holding companies should carefully review their dividend policy and has discouraged payment ratios that are at maximum allowable levels unless both asset quality and capital are very strong. Prior to 2019, we never declared or paid dividends on our common stock. On January 28, 2019 the Corporation’s board of directors declared a $0.22 per share dividend, payable on March 1, 2019 to shareholders of record on February 15, 2019. The Corporation anticipates that it will continue to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future, although there can be no assurance that payment of such dividends will continue or that they will not be reduced. The payment and amount of future dividends remain within the discretion of the Corporation’s board of directors and will depend on the Corporation’s operating results and financial condition, regulatory limitations, tax considerations, and other factors. Interest on deposits will be paid prior to payment of dividends on the Corporation’s common stock.
The Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Corporation is subject to restrictions set forth in the Financial Code. The Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its stockholders in excess of the lesser of a bank’s (1) retained earnings; or (2) net income for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made by the bank or by any majority-owned subsidiary of the bank to the stockholders of the bank during such period. However, a bank may, with the approval of the DBO, make a distribution to its stockholders in an amount not exceeding the greatest of (a) its retained earnings; (b) its net income for its last fiscal year; or (c) its net income for its current fiscal year. In the event that bank regulators determine that the stockholders'stockholders’ equity of a bank is inadequate or that the making of a distribution by the bank would be unsafe or unsound, the regulators may order the bank to refrain from making a proposed distribution. The payment of dividends could, depending on the financial condition of the Bank,a bank, be deemed to constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. Under these provisions,the foregoing provision of the Financial Code, the amount available for distribution from the Bank to the Corporation was approximately $58.8$245.7 million at December 31, 2015.2018.
Approval of the Federal Reserve is required for payment of any dividend by a state chartered bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve, such as the Bank, if the total of all dividends declared by the bank in any calendar year would exceed the total of its retained net income for that year combined with its retained net income for the preceding two years. In addition, a state member bank may not pay a dividend in an amount greater than its undivided profits without regulatory and stockholder approval. The Bank is also prohibited under federal law from paying any dividend that would cause it to become undercapitalized.
It is our policy to retain earnings, if any, to provide funds for use in our business. We have never declared or paid dividends on our common stock.
FDIC Insurance of Certain Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC. The Bank is an FDIC insured financial institution whereby the FDIC provides deposit insurance for a certain maximum dollar amount per customer. The Bank, as is the case withtrue for all FDIC insured banks, is subject to deposit insurance assessments as determined by the FDIC. The amount of
Under the FDIC’s risk-based deposit insurancepremium assessment system, the assessment rates for institutions with less than $10.0 billion in assets,an insured depository institution are determined by an assessment rate calculator, which includes the Bank, is based on itsa number of elements that measure the risk category, with certain adjustments for any unsecured debt or brokered deposits held by the insured bank. Institutions assigned to higher risk categories (that is, institutions that pose a higher risk of loss to the DIF) pay assessments at higher rates than institutions that pose a lower risk. An institution’s risk classification is assigned based on a combination of its financial ratios and supervisory ratings, reflecting, among other things, its capital levels and the level of supervisory concern that theeach institution poses to the regulators.Deposit Insurance Fund. As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, the calculated assessment rate is applied to average consolidated assets less the average tangible equity of the insured depository institution during the assessment period to determine the dollar amount of the quarterly assessment. Under the current system, premiums are assessed quarterly and could increase if, for example, criticized loans and leases and/or other higher risk assets increase or balance sheet liquidity decreases. In addition, the FDIC can impose special assessments in certain instances. Deposit insurance assessments fund the DIF.
The Dodd-Frank Act changes In 2010, the wayFDIC adopted its DIF restoration plan to ensure that deposit insurance premiums are calculated. The assessment base is no longer the institution’s deposit base, but rather its average consolidated total assets less its average tangible equity. The Dodd-Frank Act also increases the minimum designatedfund reserve ratio of the DIF from 1.15% toreaches 1.35% of the estimated amount of total insured deposits by September 30, 2020, eliminatesand the upper limit for the reserve ratio designated by the FDIC each year, and eliminates the requirement that the FDIC pay dividendsFDIC’s final rule with respect to depository

Based on the current FDIC insurance assessment methodology, and including our participation in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program, our FDIC insurance premium expense was $1.4$3.0 million for 2015, $1.02018, $2.2 million for 20142017 and $749,000$1.5 million in 2013.2016.
Transactions with Related Parties. Depository institutions are subject to the restrictions contained in the Federal Reserve Act (the “FRA”) with respect to loans to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders. Under the FRA, loans to directors, executive officers and stockholders who own more than 10% of a depository institution and certain affiliated entities of any of the foregoing, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated entities, the institution’s loans-to-one-borrower limit as discussed in the above section. Federal regulations also prohibitsprohibit loans above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency to directors, executive officers, and stockholders who own more than 10% of an institution, and their respective affiliates, unless such loans are approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the institution. Any “interested” director may not participate in the voting. The prescribedproscribed loan amount, which includes all other outstanding loans to such person, as to which such prior board of director approval is required, is the greater of $25,000 or 5% of capital and surplus up to $500,000. The Federal Reserve also requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to non-executive employees of the bank and must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. There are additional limits on the amount a bank can loan to an executive officer.
Transactions between a bank and its “affiliates” are quantitatively and qualitatively restricted under Sections 23A and 23B of the FRA. Section 23A restricts the aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the financial institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the institution’s capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates are generally prohibited. Section 23B generally provides that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. The Federal Reserve has promulgated Regulation W, which codifies prior interpretations under Sections 23A and 23B of the FRA and provides interpretive guidance with respect to affiliate transactions. Affiliates of a bank include, among other entities, a bank’s holding company and companies that are under common control with the bank. We areThe Corporation is considered to be an affiliate of the Bank.
The Dodd-Frank Act generally enhancesenhanced the restrictions on transactions with affiliates under Section 23A and 23B of the FRA, including an expansion of the definition of “covered transactions” and an increase in the amount of time for which collateral requirements regarding covered credit transactions must be satisfied. Insider transaction limitations are expanded through the strengthening of loan restrictions to insiders and
the expansion of the types of transactions subject to the various limits, including derivatives transactions, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending or borrowing transactions. Restrictions are also placed on certain asset sales to and from an insider to an institution, including requirements that such sales be on market terms and, in certain circumstances, approved by the institution'sinstitution’s board of directors.
Safety and Soundness Standards. The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines designed to assist the federal banking agencies in identifying and addressing potential safety and soundness concerns before capital becomes impaired. The guidelines set forth operational and managerial standards relating toto: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) asset growth; (v) earnings; and (vi) compensation, fees and benefits.
In addition, the federal banking agencies have also adopted safety and soundness guidelines with respect to asset quality and for evaluating and monitoring earnings to ensure that earnings are sufficient for the maintenance of adequate capital and reserves. These guidelines provide six standards for establishing and maintaining a system
to identify problem assets and prevent those assets from deteriorating. Under these standards, an insured depository institution shouldshould: (i) conduct periodic asset quality reviews to identify problem assets; (ii) estimate the inherent losses in problem assets and establish reserves that are sufficient to absorb estimated losses; (iii) compare problem asset totals to capital; (iv) take appropriate corrective action to resolve problem assets; (v) consider the size and potential risks of material asset concentrations; and (vi) provide periodic asset quality reports with adequate information for management and the board of directors to assess the level of asset risk.
Loans-to-OneLoans to One Borrower. Under California law, our ability to make aggregate secured and unsecured loans-to-one-borrower is limited to 25% and 15%, respectively, of unimpaired capital and surplus. At December 31, 2015,2018, the Bank’s limit on aggregate secured loans-to-one-borrower was $94.1$526.0 million and unsecured loans-to-one borrower was $56.5$315.0 million. The Bank has established internal loan limits, which are lower than the legal lending limits for a California bank.
Community Reinvestment Act and the Fair Lending Laws. The Bank is subject to certain fair lending requirements and reporting obligations involving home mortgage lending operations and CRACommunity Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) activities. The CRA generally requires the federal banking regulators to evaluate the record of a financial institution in meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. In addition to substantial penalties and corrective measures that may be required for a violation of certain fair lending laws, the federal banking agencies may take compliance with such laws and CRA into account when regulating and supervising other activities. A bank’s compliance with its CRA obligations is based on a performance-based evaluation system, which bases CRA ratings on an institution’s lending, service and investment performance, resulting in a rating by the appropriate bank regulator of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs to improve” or “substantial noncompliance.” Based on its last CRA examination, the Bank received a “satisfactory” rating.
Bank Secrecy Act and Money Laundering Control Act. In 1970, Congress passed the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act, otherwise known as the Bank Secrecy Act (the “BSA”), which established requirements for recordkeeping and reporting by banks and other financial institutions. The BSA was designed to help identify the source, volume and movement of currency and other monetary instruments into and out of the U.S. in order to help detect and prevent money laundering connected with drug trafficking, terrorism and other criminal activities. The primary tool used to implement BSA requirements is the filing of Suspicious Activity Reports. Today, the BSA requires that all banking institutions develop and provide for the continued administration of a program reasonably designed to assure and monitor compliance with certain recordkeeping and reporting requirements regarding both domestic and international currency transactions. These programs must, at a minimum, provide for a system of internal controls to assure ongoing compliance, provide for independent testing of such systems and compliance, designate individuals responsible for such compliance and provide appropriate personnel training.
USA Patriot Act. Under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, commonly referred to as the "USAUSA Patriot Act"Act or the "PatriotPatriot Act," financial institutions are subject to prohibitions against specified financial transactions and account relationships, as well as enhanced due diligence standards intended to detect, and prevent, the use of the United States financial system for money laundering and terrorist financing activities. The Patriot Act requires financial institutions, including banks, to establish anti-money laundering programs, including employee training and independent audit requirements, meet minimum standards specified by the act, follow minimum standards for customer identification and maintenance of customer identification records, and regularly compare customer lists against lists of suspected terrorists, terrorist organizations and money launderers. The costs or other effects of the compliance burdens imposed by the Patriot Act or future anti-terrorist, homeland security or anti-money laundering legislation or regulation cannot be predicted with certainty.
Consumer Laws and Regulations. The Bank is also subject to certain consumer laws and regulations that are designed to protect consumers in transactions with banks. These laws include, among others,others: Truth in Lending Act; Truth in Savings Act; Electronic Funds Transfer Act; Expedited Funds Availability Act; Equal Credit Opportunity Act; Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act; Fair Housing Act; Fair Credit Reporting Act; Fair Debt
Collection Act; Home Mortgage Disclosure Act; Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act; laws regarding unfair and deceptive acts and practices; and usury laws. These laws and regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions must deal with customers when taking deposits or making loans to such customers. The Bank must comply with the applicable provisions of these consumer protection laws and regulations as part of their ongoing customer relations. Many states and local jurisdictions have consumer protection laws analogous, and in addition, to those listed above. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could give rise to regulatory sanctions, customer rescission rights, action by state and local attorneys general, and civil or criminal liability.
Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB has broad authority to regulate and supervise the retail consumer financial products and services activities of banks and various non-bank providers. The CFPB has authority to promulgate regulations, issue orders, guidance and policy statements, conduct examinations and bring enforcement actions with regard to consumer financial products and services. In general, however, banks withWith assets ofexceeding $10.0 billion or less, such asat December 31, 2018, the Bank will continueis subject to be examinedexamination for consumer compliance by their primary federal banking regulator.the CFPB. The creation of the CFPB by the Dodd-Frank Act has leadled to, and is likely to continue to lead to, enhanced and strengthened enforcement of consumer financial protection laws.
In addition, federal law currently contains extensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a financial institution must provide to its customers, at the inception of the customer relationship and annually thereafter, the institution’s policies and procedures regarding the handling of customers’ nonpublic personal financial information. These provisions also provide that, except for certain limited exceptions, a financial institution may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless the institution discloses to the customer that such information may be so provided and the customer is given the opportunity to opt out of such disclosure.
Federal and State Taxation
The Corporation and the Bank report their income on a consolidated basis using the accrual method of accounting, and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions. The Company has not been audited by the IRS.Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). For its 2015, 20142018, the Company was subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 21.00% and 2013California state income tax rate of 10.84%. For its 2017 and 2016 tax years, the Company was subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 35.00% and California state income tax rate of 10.84%.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act includes a number of provisions that impact us, including the following:
Tax Rate. The Tax Act replaces the graduated corporate income tax rates applicable under prior law, which imposed a maximum corporate income tax rate of 35%, with a reduced 21% flat corporate income tax rate. Although the reduced corporate income tax rate generally should be favorable to us, resulting in increased earnings and capital, it decreased the value of our existing deferred tax assets. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires that the impact of the provisions of the Tax Act be accounted for in the period of enactment. Accordingly, the total incremental income tax expense recorded by the Corporation related to the Tax Act was $3.4 million.
FDIC Insurance Premiums. The Tax Act prohibits taxpayers with consolidated assets over $50 billion from deducting any FDIC insurance premiums and prohibits taxpayers with consolidated assets between $10 and $50 billion from deducting the portion of their FDIC premiums equal to the ratio, expressed as a percentage, that (i) the taxpayer’s total consolidated assets over $10 billion, as of the close of the taxable year, bears to (ii) $40 billion. As such, a portion of the Bank’s FDIC insurance premiums were deemed not deductible for the year ended December 31, 2018 as we completed the acquisition of Grandpoint with $3.05 billion in total assets during 2018 and our total consolidated assets reached $11.49 billion at December 31, 2018.
Employee Compensation. A “publicly held corporation” is not permitted to deduct compensation in excess of $1 million per year paid to certain employees. The Tax Act eliminates certain exceptions to the $1 million limit applicable under prior law related to performance-based compensation (for example, equity grants and cash bonuses paid only on the attainment of performance goals). As a result, our ability to deduct certain compensation paid to our most highly compensated employees is now limited.
Business Asset Expensing. The Tax Act allows taxpayers to immediately expense the entire cost (instead of only 50%, as under prior law) of certain depreciable tangible property and real property improvements acquired and placed in service after September 27, 2017 and before January 1, 2023 (with an additional year for certain property). This 100% “bonus” depreciation is phased out proportionately for property placed in service on or after January 1, 2023 and before January 1, 2027 (with an additional year for certain property).
Interest Expense. The Tax Act limits a taxpayer’s annual deduction of business interest expense to the sum of (i) business interest income, and (ii) 30% of “adjusted taxable income,” defined as a business’s taxable income without taking into account business interest income or expense, net operating losses, and, for 2018 through 2021, depreciation, amortization and depletion. Because we generate significant amounts of net interest income, we do not expect to be impacted by this limitation.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Ownership of our common stock involves certain risks. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. You should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as all other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially, adversely affected.
Risks Related to Our Business
The economic environment could pose significant challenges for the Company and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
From December 2007 through June 2009,Our financial condition and results of operations are dependent on the U.S. economy, wasgenerally, and markets we serve, specifically. We primarily serve markets in recessionCalifornia, though certain of our products and economic recovery has been slower than expected.services are offered nationwide. Although the U.S. economy continues to slowly improve, declinesa gradual expansion following the severe recession that ended in real estate values2009, the duration and financialmagnitude of the continued expansion is uncertain. Financial stress on borrowers as a result of an uncertain future economic environment could have an adverse effect on the Company’s borrowers and their ability to repay their loans, to us, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. A weakening of these conditions in the markets in which we operate would likely have an adverse effect on us and others in the financial institutions industry. For example, deterioration in economic conditions in our markets could drive losses beyond that which is provided for in our ALLL.allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”). We may also face the following risks in connection with these events:
Economic conditions that negatively affect real estate values and the job market may result, in the deterioration of the credit quality of our loan portfolio, and such deterioration in credit quality could have a negative impact on our business.
A decrease in the demand for loans and other products and services offered by us.
A decrease in deposit balances, including low-cost and non-interest bearing deposits, due to overall reductions in the accounts of customers.
A decrease in the value of our loans or other assets secured by commercial or residential real estate.
A decrease in net interest income derived from our lending and deposit gathering activities.
Sustained weakness or continuing weakness in our markets may affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates on loans and other credit facilities.
The processes we use to estimate ALLL and reserves may no longer be reliable because they rely on complex judgments, including forecasts of economic conditions, which may no longer be capable of accurate estimation.
Our ability to assess the creditworthiness of our customers may be impaired if the models and approaches we use to select, manage, and underwrite its customers become less predictive of future charge-offs.
We expect to face increased regulation of its industry, and compliance with such regulation may increase our costs, limit our ability to pursue business opportunities and increase compliance challenges.
As these conditions or similar ones exist or worsen, we could experience adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is subject to various lending and other economic risks that could adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.
There was significant disruption and volatility in the financial and capital markets in 2008 and 2009. The financial markets and the financial services industry in particular suffered unprecedented disruption, causing a number of institutions to fail or require government intervention to avoid failure. These conditions were largely the result of the erosion of the U.S. and global credit markets, including a significant and rapid deterioration in the mortgage lending and related real estate markets. While economic conditions have improved, the sustainability of the economic recovery is uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the economic conditions that adversely affectedimpact the financial services industry, and the capital, credit and real estate markets generally, will continue to improvenot deteriorate in the near or long term, in which case, we could experience losses and write-downs of assets, and could face capital and liquidity constraints or other business challenges. If economic conditions were to deteriorate, particularly within our geographic region,regions, it could result in the following additional consequences, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition:
Loan delinquencies may increase causing increases in our provision and allowance for loan losses.
Our abilitylosses and ALLL and decreases to assess the creditworthiness of our customers may be impaired if the models and approaches we use to select, manage, and underwrite our customers become less predictive of future charge-offs.capital.
Collateral for loans, especially real estate, may continue to decline in value, in turn reducing a client’scustomer’s borrowing power, and reducing the value of assets and collateral associated with our loans held for investment.
Consumer confidence levels may decline and cause adverse changes in payment patterns, resulting in increased delinquencies and default rates on loans and other credit facilities and decreased demand for our products and services.
Performance of the underlying loans in mortgage backed securities may deteriorate to potentially cause OTTI markdowns to our investment portfolio.
Adverse economic conditions in California may cause us to suffer higher default rates on our loans and reduce the value of the assets we hold as collateral.
Our business activities and credit exposure are concentrated in California. Difficult economic conditions, including state and local government deficits, in California may cause us to incur losses associated with higher default rates and decreased collateral values in our loan portfolio. In addition, demand for our products and services may decline. Declines in the California real estate market could hurt our business, because the majority of our loans are secured by real estate located within California. As of December 31, 2018, approximately 59% of the aggregate outstanding principal of our loans was secured by real estate were located in California. If real estate values were to decline in California, the collateral for our loans would provide less security. As a result, our ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling the underlying real estate would be diminished, and we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans.
Changes in U.S trade policies and other factors beyond the Company’s control may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Following the U.S. presidential election in 2016, there have been changes to U.S. trade policies, legislation, treaties and tariffs, including trade policies and tariffs affecting China and retaliatory tariffs by China. Tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or other trade restrictions on products and materials that our customers import or export, including among others, agricultural and technological products, could cause the prices of our customers’ products to increase which could reduce demand for such products, or reduce our customer margins, and adversely impact their revenues, financial results and ability to service debt; this, in turn, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, to the extent changes in the political environment have a negative impact on us or on the markets in which we operate, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely impacted in the future. A trade war or other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements or policies has the potential to negatively impact our and our customers’ costs, demand for our customers’ products, and the U.S. economy or certain sectors thereof and, thus, adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may suffer losses in our loan portfolio in excess of our allowance for loan losses.
Our total nonperforming assets amounted to $5.1$5.0 million, or 0.18%0.04% of our total assets, at December 31, 2015, up2018, an increase from $2.5$3.6 million or 0.12%0.04% at December 31, 2014.2017. We had $1.3$1.0 million of net loan charge-offs for 2015,
up2018, unchanged from $684,000$1.0 million in 2014.2017. Our provision for loan losses was $6.4$8.2 million in 2015, up2018, a decrease from $4.7$8.6 million in 2014.2017. If increases in our nonperforming assets occur in the future, our net loan charge-offs and/or provision for loan losses may also increase which may have an adverse effect upon our future results of operations.operations and capital.
We seek to mitigate the risks inherent in our loan portfolio by adhering to specific underwriting practices. These practices generally include analysis of a borrower’s prior credit history, financial statements, tax returns and cash flow projections, valuation of collateral based on reports of independent appraisers and liquid asset verifications. Although we believe that our underwriting criteria are appropriate for the various kinds of loans we make, we may incur losses on loans that meet our underwriting criteria, and these losses may exceed the amounts set aside as reserves in our ALLL. We create anOur allowance for estimated loanprobable incurred losses in our accounting records,is based on analysis of the following:
Historical experience with our loans;
Industry historical losses as reported by the FDIC;
Evaluation of economic conditions;
Regular reviews of the quality, mix and size of the overall loan portfolio;
Regular reviews of delinquencies;
The quality of the collateral underlying our loans; and
The effect of external factors, such as competition, legal developments and regulatory requirements.
Although we maintain an ALLL at a level that we believe is adequate to absorb probable incurred losses inherent in our loan portfolio, changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including thea sharp decline in real estate values and changes in interest rates, which are beyond our control, may cause our actual loan losses to exceed our current allowance estimates. If the actual loan losses exceed the amount reserved, it will adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, the Federal Reserve and the DBO, as part of their supervisory function, periodically review our ALLL. Either agency may require us to increase our provision for loan losses or to recognize further loan losses, based on their judgments, which may be different from those of our management. Any increase in the allowanceALLL required by them could also adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Risks related to specific segments of our loan portfolio may result in losses that could affect our results of operations and financial condition.
General economic conditions and local economic conditions, changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies, and increases in interest rates and tax rates affect our entire loan portfolio. LendingIn addition, lending risks vary by the type of loan extended.
In our C&I and SBA lending activities, collectability of loans may be adversely affected by risks generally related to small and middle market businesses, such as:
Changes or weaknesses in specific industry segments, including weakness affecting the business’ customer base;
Changes in consumer behavior;
Changes inbehavior and a business’ personnel;
Increases in supplier costs and operating costs that cannot be passed along to customers;
Increases in operating expenses (including energy costs); and
Changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies;competition.
Increases in interest rates, tax rates; and
In our investor real estate and construction loans, payment performance and the liquidation values of collateral properties may be adversely affected by risks generally incidental to interests in real property (for investor real estate and CRE construction loans) or risks generally related to consumers (for single family residence construction loans), such as:
Declines in real estate values;
Declines invalues, rental rates;
Declines inrates and occupancy rates;
Increases in other operating expenses (including energy costs);
Demand for the type of property or high-end home in question; and
The availability of property financing;
Changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies, including rent control ordinances, environmental legislation and taxation;
Increases in interest rates, real estate and personal property tax rates; andfinancing.
In our HOA and consumer loans, collectability of the loans may be adversely affected by risks generally related to consumers, such as:
Changes in consumer behavior and changes or weakness in employment and wage income;
Changes in consumer behavior;
Declines in real estate values;
Declines invalues or rental rates;
Increases in association operating expenses (including energy costs);expenses; and
The availability of property financing;
Changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies, including rent control ordinances, environmental legislation and taxation;
Increases in interest rates, real estate and personal property tax rates; andfinancing.
In our constructionagribusiness and farmland loans, collectability andof the liquidation values of collateral propertiesloans may be adversely affected by risks generally related to consumers (for SFR construction loans) or incidental to interests in real property (for CRE construction loans),agriculture production and farmlands, such as:
DeclinesThe cyclical nature of the agriculture industry;
Fluctuating commodity prices;
Changing climatic conditions, including drought conditions, which adversely impact agricultural customers’ operating costs, crop yields and crop quality and could impact such customers’ ability to repay loans;
The imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs or other trade restrictions on agricultural products and materials that our clients import or export; and
Increases in operating expenses and changes in real estate values;
Declines in rental rates;

Adverse economic conditions in California may cause us to suffer higher default rates on our loans and reduce the value of the assets we hold as collateral.
Our business activities and credit exposure are concentrated in California. Difficult economic conditions, including state and local government deficits, in California may cause us to incur losses associated with higher default rates and decreased collateral values in our loan portfolio. In addition, demand for our products and services may decline. Declines in the California real estate market could hurt our business, because the vast majority of our loans are secured by real estate located within California. As of December 31, 2015, approximately 54% of our loans secured by real estate were located in California. If real estate values were to decline, especially in California, the collateral for our loans provide less security. As a result, our ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling the underlying real estate would be diminished, and we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans.values.
Our level of credit risk could increase due to our focus on commercial lending and the concentration on small and middle market business customers, withwho can have heightened vulnerability to economic conditions.
As of December 31, 2015,2018, our commercial real estate loans amounted to $869 million,$3.7 billion, or 38.4%42.2% of our total loan portfolio, and our commercial business loans amounted to $1.14$4.1 billion, or 50.3%46.8% of our total loan portfolio. At such date, our largest outstanding commercial business loan was $32.1$53.2 million, our largest multiple
borrower relationship was $30.7$131 million and our largest outstanding commercial real estateCRE loan was $26.5$94.1 million. Commercial real estateCRE and commercial business loans generally are considered riskier than single-family residential loans because they have larger balances to a single borrower or group of related borrowers. Commercial real estateCRE and commercial business loans involve risks because the borrowers’ ability to repay the loans typically depends primarily on the successful operation of the businesses or the properties securing the loans. Most of the Company’s commercial business loans are made to small business or middle market customers who may have a heightened vulnerability to economic conditions. Moreover, a portion of these loans have been made or acquired by us in recent years and the borrowers may not have experienced a complete business or economic cycle. Furthermore, the deterioration of our borrowers’ businesses may hinder their ability to repay their loans with us, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Nonperforming assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Nonperforming assets adversely affect our net income in various ways. We generally do not record interest income on nonperforming loans or OREO,other real estate owned (“OREO”), which adversely affects our income. When we take collateral in foreclosures and similar proceedings, we are required to mark the related asset to the then fair market value of the collateral, which may ultimately result in a loss. An increase in the level of nonperforming assets increases our risk profile and may impact the capital levels our regulators believe are appropriate in light of the ensuing risk profile. While we reduce problem assets through loan sales, workouts, restructurings and otherwise, decreases in the value of the underlying collateral, or in these borrowers’ performance or financial condition, whether or not due to economic and market conditions beyond our control, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the resolution of nonperforming assets requires significant commitments of time from management and our directors, which can be detrimental to the performance of their other responsibilities. There can be no assurance that we will not experience future increases in nonperforming assets.
WeChanges in accounting policies, standards, and interpretations could materially affect how the Company reports its financial condition and results of operations.
From time to time, the FASB and the SEC change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. These changes can materially impact how the Company records and reports its financial condition and results of operations.
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU introduces a new revenue model based on current expected credit losses (“CECL”) rather than incurred losses. The CECL model will apply to most debt instruments, including loan receivables and loan commitments.
Under the CECL model, the Company would recognize an impairment allowance equal to its current estimate of expected life of loan losses for financial instruments as of the end of the reporting period. Measuring expected life of loan losses will likely be a significant challenge for all entities, including the Company. Additionally, the allowance for credit loss(“ACL”) measured under a CECL model could differ materially from the allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) measured under the Company’s incurred loss model. To initially apply the CECL amendments, for most debt instruments, the Company would record a cumulative-effect adjustment to its statement of financial condition as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (a modified retrospective approach). The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and are required to be adopted through a modified retrospective approach, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the ASU is effective. The implementation of CECL may require us to increase our loan loss allowance, decreasing our reported income, and may introduce additional volatility into our reported earnings.
On December 21, 2018, federal bank regulatory agencies approved a final rule, effective as of April 1, 2019, modifying their regulatory capital rules and providing an option to phase in over a three-year period the initial regulatory capital effects of the CECL methodology. The Company is currently evaluating the magnitude of the one-time cumulative adjustment to its allowance and of the ongoing impact of the CECL model on its loan loss allowance and results of operations, together with the final rule that becomes effective as of April 1, 2019, to determine if the phase-in option will be unable to successfully competeelected.
Changes in monetary policy may have a material effect on our industry.results of operations.
We face direct competition from a significant number of financial institutions, many with a state-wide or regional presence, andChanges in some cases, a national presence,monetary policy, including changes in both originatinginterest rates, could influence not only the interest we receive on loans and attractingsecurities and the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, but also our ability to originate loans and deposits. Competition in originating loans comes primarily from other banks and finance companies that make loans in our primary market areas. We also face substantial competition in attracting deposits from other banking institutions, money market and mutual funds, credit unions and other investment vehicles. In addition banks with larger capitalizations and non-bank financial institutions that are not governed by bank regulatory restrictions have larger lending limits and are better able to serveHistorically, there has been an inverse correlation between the needs of larger customers. Many of these financial institutions are also significantly larger and have greater financial resources than we have, and have established customer bases and name recognition. We competedemand for loans principally on the basisand interest rates. Loan origination volume usually declines during periods of rising or high interest rates and loan fees,increases during periods of declining or low interest rates. Changes in interest rates also have a significant impact on the typescarrying value of loans we offer and the quality of service that we provide to our borrowers. Our ability to attract and retain deposits requires that we provide customers with competitive investment opportunities with respect to rate of return, liquidity, risk and other factors. To effectively compete, we may have to pay higher rates of interest to attract deposits, resulting in reduced profitability. In addition, we rely upon local promotional activities, personal relationships established by our officers, directors and employees and specialized services tailored to meet the individual needscertain of our customersassets, including loans, real estate and investment securities, on our balance sheet. We may incur debt in orderthe future and that debt may also be sensitive to compete. If we are not able to effectively competeinterest rates.
Further, federal monetary policy significantly affects credit conditions for us, as well as for our borrowers, particularly as implemented by the Federal Reserve, primarily through open market operations in U.S. government securities, the discount rate for bank borrowings and reserve requirements. A material change in any of these conditions could have a material impact on us or our market area,borrowers, and therefore on our profitability may be negatively affected.results of operations.
Interest rate fluctuations,changes, increases or decreases, which are out of our control, could harm profitability.
Our profitability depends to a large extent upon net interest income, which is the difference between interest income and dividends we earn on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments, and interest expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. Any change in general market interest rates, whether as a result of changes in the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve or otherwise, may have a significant effect on net interest income. The
In response to improving economic conditions, the Federal Reserve Board’s Open Market Committee has slowly increased its federal funds rate target from a range of 0.00% - 0.25%, that was in effect for several years, to the current target range of 2.25% - 2.50%, that was in effect at December 31, 2018. Moreover, since December 2015, the Federal Reserve has removed reserves from the banking system, which also puts upward pressure on market rates of interest. In addition, the prohibition restricting depository institutions from paying interest on demand deposits, such as checking accounts, was repealed as part of the Dodd-Frank Act.
Our assets and liabilities may react differently to changes in overall interest rates or conditions. In general, higher interest rates are associated with a lower volume of loan originations while lower
interest rates are usually associated with higher loan originations. Further, if interest rates decline, our loans may be refinanced at lower rates or paid off and our investments may be prepaid earlier than expected. If that occurs, we may have to redeploy the loan or investment proceeds into lower yielding assets, which might also decrease our income. Also, as many of our loans currently have interest rate floors, a rise in rates may increase the cost of our deposits while the rates on the loans remain at their floors, which could decrease our net interest margin.income. Accordingly, changes in levels of market interest rates could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, loan origination volumes, net interest margin, asset qualityresults of operations and profitability.
The Company’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates is low in a rising interest rate environment based on the current profile of the Company’s loan origination volume.
Changes in the fair valueportfolio and low-cost and no-cost deposits. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of our securities may reduce our stockholders’ equityFinancial Condition and net income.
Results of Operations-Management of Market Risk.” At December 31, 2015, $280.32018, we had $526.1 million of our securities were classified as available-for-sale. At such date,in interest-bearing demand deposits. In addition, at December 31, 2018, we had $3.23 billion in money market and savings deposits. If the aggregate net unrealized gaininterest rates on our available-for-sale securities was $562,000. Weloans increase or decrease stockholders’ equity bycomparably faster than the amount of change from the unrealized gain or loss (the difference between the estimated fair value and the amortized cost) of our available-for-sale securities portfolio, net of the related tax, under the category of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss. Therefore, a decline in the estimated fair value of this portfolio will result in a decline in reported stockholders’ equity, as well as book value per common share and tangible book value per common share. This decrease will occur even though the securities are not sold. In the case of debt securities, if these securities are never sold and there are no credit impairments, the decrease will be recovered over the life of the securities. In the case of equity securities which have no stated maturity, the declines in fair value may or may not be recovered over time.
For the year ended December 31, 2015 there were OTTI charges or recoveries to reportinterest rate on our securities portfolio. We continueinterest- bearing demand deposits and money market and savings deposits, our core deposit balances may decrease as customers use those funds to monitor the fair value of our entire securities portfolio as part of our ongoing OTTI evaluation process. No assurance can be given thatrepay higher cost loans. In addition, if we will not need to recognize OTTI charges relatedoffer additional interest-bearing demand deposit products or higher interest rates on our current interest-bearing demand, money market or savings deposit accounts in order to securities in the future. At December 31, 2015,maintain current customers or attract new customers, our interest expense will increase, perhaps materially. Furthermore, if we had stock holdings in the FHLB of San Francisco totaling $11.4 million, and other stock holdings of $10.9 millionfail to offer competitive rates sufficient to retain these accounts, our core deposits may be reduced, which included stock from FRB, a CRA investment, and TIB. The stock held by us is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our stock holdings. There can be no assurance that future negative changes to the financial condition of the issuers may would
require us to recognize an impairment charge with respectseek alternative funding sources or risk slowing our future asset growth. In these circumstances, our net interest income may decrease, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
As interest rates rise, our existing borrowers who have adjustable rate loans may see their loan payments increase and, as a result, may experience difficulty repaying those loans, which in turn could lead to such stock holdings.higher losses for us. Increasing delinquencies, non-accrual loans and defaults lead to higher loan loss provisions, and potentially greater eventual losses that would lower our current profitability and capital ratios.
Conditions in the financial markets may limit our access to additional funding to meet our liquidity needs.
Liquidity is essential to our business, as we must maintain sufficient funds to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers. An inability to raise funds through deposits, repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased, FHLB advances, the sale or pledging as collateral of loans and other assets could have a substantial negative effect on our liquidity. Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance our activities, or on terms attractive to us, could be impaired by factors that affect us specifically or the financial services industry in general. Factors that could negatively affect our access to liquidity sources include a reduction in our credit ratings, if any, an increase in costs of capital in financial capital markets, negative operating results, a decrease in the level of our business activity due to a market downturn, a decrease in depositor or investor confidence or adverse regulatory action against us. Our ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as severe disruption of the financial markets or negative news and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry as a whole.
Our ability to obtain funding from the FHLB or through its overnight federal funds lines with other banks could be negatively affected if we experienced a substantial deterioration in the Company’s financial condition or if such funding became restricted due to deterioration in the financial markets. While the Company has a contingency funds management plan to address such a situation if it were to occur (such plan includes deposit promotions, the sale of securities and the curtailment of loan growth, if necessary), a significant decrease in our ability to borrow funds could adversely affect our liquidity.
As a commercial banking institution, we compete with our market peers in, among other things, attracting, maintaining and increasing customer deposits. We are currently part of a highly competitive local deposit market, in which our competitors are offering ever increasing deposit rates in order to attract new deposits. Given our large proportion of non-maturity deposits, we could experience significant and acute deposit outflows if our offered deposit rates do not remain competitive in our primary market. Such outflows could adversely affect our liquidity.
Further, depending on these competitive factors and the interest rate environment, lower cost deposits may need to be replaced with higher cost funding, resulting in a decrease in net interest income and net income. While these events could have a material impact on our results, we expect, in the ordinary course of business, that these deposits will fluctuate and believes the Company is capable of mitigating this risk, as well as the risk of losing one of these depositors, through additional liquidity, and business generation in the future. However, should a significant number of these customers leave the Bank, it could have a material adverse impact on the Bank and the Company.
The primary source of the Company’s liquidity from which, among other things, dividends may be paid is the receipt of dividends from the Bank.
We recently initiated the paying of a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock. Our ability to pay cash dividends to our shareholders is dependent upon receiving dividends from the Bank. The Bank’s ability to pay dividends to us is subject to restrictions set forth in the Financial Code. The Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its stockholders in excess of the lesser of (1) a bank’s retained earnings and (2) a bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made by the bank or by any majority-owned subsidiary of the bank to the shareholders of the bank during such period. However, a
bank may, with the approval of the DBO, make a distribution to its stockholders in an amount not exceeding the greatest of (a) its retained earnings; (b) its net income for its last fiscal year; or (c) its net income for its current fiscal year. In the event that banking regulators determine that the stockholders’ equity of a bank is inadequate or that the making of a distribution by the bank would be unsafe or unsound, the regulators may order the bank to refrain from making a proposed distribution.
Approval of the Federal Reserve is required for payment of any dividend by a state chartered bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System, such as the Bank, if the total of all dividends declared by the Bank in any calendar year would exceed the total of its retained net income for that year combined with its retained net income for the preceding two years. In addition, a state member bank may not pay a dividend in an amount greater than its undivided profits without regulatory and stockholder approval. The Bank is also prohibited under federal law from paying any dividend that would cause it to become undercapitalized.
We may reduce or discontinue the payment of dividends on common stock.
Our shareholders are only entitled to receive such dividends as our Board may declare out of funds legally available for such payments. Although we have only recently begun to declare cash dividends on our common stock, we are not required to do so and may reduce or eliminate our common stock dividend in the future. Our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders is subject to the restrictions set forth in Delaware law, by the Federal Reserve, and by certain covenants contained in our subordinated debentures. Notification to the Federal Reserve is also required prior to our declaring and paying a cash dividend to our shareholders during any period in which our quarterly and/or cumulative twelve-month net earnings are insufficient to fund the dividend amount, among other requirements. We may not pay a dividend if the Federal Reserve objects or until such time as we receive approval from the Federal Reserve or we no longer need to provide notice under applicable regulations. In addition, we may be restricted by applicable law or regulation or actions taken by our regulators, now or in the future, from paying dividends to our shareholders. We cannot provide assurance that we will continue paying dividends on our common stock at current levels or at all. A reduction or discontinuance of dividends on our common stock could have a material adverse effect on our business, including the market price of our common stock.
The soundnessfinancial condition of other financial institutions could negatively affect us.
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or other relationships. We have exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including commercial banks, brokers and dealers, investment banks and other institutional clients.customers. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of a default by a counterparty or client.customer. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the credit or derivative
exposure due to us. Any such losses could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to extensive regulation which could adversely affect our business.
Our operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on part or all of our operations. Because our business is highly regulated, the laws, rules and regulations applicable to us are subject to regular modification and change. There are currently proposed laws, rules and regulations that, if adopted, would impact our operations. These proposed laws, rules and regulations, or any other laws, rules or regulations, may be adopted in the future, which could (1) make compliance much more difficult or expensive, (2) restrict our ability to originate, broker or sell loans or accept certain deposits, (3) further limit or restrict the amount of commissions, interest or other charges earned on loans originated or sold by us, or (4) otherwise adversely affect our business or prospects for business.
Moreover, banking regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws or regulations by financial institutions and holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. The exercise of regulatory authority may have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, in order to conduct certain activities, including acquisitions, we are required to obtain regulatory approval. There can be no assurance that any required approvals can be obtained, or obtained without conditions or on a timeframe acceptable to us.
The Dodd-Frank Act continues to materially affect our operations.
On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Act, which imposes significant regulatory and compliance changes. The key provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act that have affected or are anticipated to affect our operations include:
Changes to regulatory capital requirements and how we plan capital and liquidity levels;
Creation of new government regulatory agencies, including the CFPB, which possesses broad rule-making and enforcement authorities;
Restrictions that will impact the nature of our incentive compensation programs for executive officers;
Changes in insured depository institution regulations and assessments;
Mortgage loan origination and risk retention; and
Potential new and different litigation and regulatory enforcement risks.
While several provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act became effective immediately upon its enactment and others have come into effect over the last few years, many provisions still require regulations to be promulgated by various federal agencies in order to be implemented. Some of these regulations have been proposed by the applicable federal agencies but not yet finalized. Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented by the various regulatory agencies and through regulations, the full extent of the impact such requirements will have on our operations is unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may impact the profitability of our business activities, require changes to certain of our business practices, impose upon us more stringent capital, liquidity and leverage requirements or otherwise adversely affect our business. These changes may also require us to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make any changes necessary to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements. Failure to comply with the new requirements or with any future changes in laws or regulations may negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.
Changes in laws, government regulation and monetary policy may have a material effect on our results of operations.
Financial institutions have been the subject of substantial legislative and regulatory changes and may be the subject of further legislation or regulation in the future, none of which is within our control. Significant new laws or regulations or changes in, or repeals of, existing laws or regulations may cause our results of operations to differ materially. In addition, the cost and burden of compliance with applicable laws and regulations have significantly increased and could adversely affect our ability to operate profitably. Further, federal monetary policy significantly affects credit conditions for us, as well as for our borrowers, particularly as implemented by the Federal Reserve, primarily through open market operations in U.S. government securities, the discount rate for bank borrowings and reserve requirements. A material change in any of these conditions could have a material impact on us or our borrowers, and therefore on our results of operations.
We expect to face continued increased regulation and supervision of our industry as a result of the past financial crisis. The effects on us of recently enacted and proposed legislation and regulatory programs cannot reliably be determined at this time.
The repeal of federal prohibitions on payment of interest on demand deposits could increase our interest expense.
All federal prohibitions on the ability of financial institutions to pay interest on demand deposit accounts were repealed as part of the Dodd-Frank Act. As a result, financial institutions can offer interest on demand deposits to compete for clients. Our interest expense will increase and our net interest margin will decrease if the Bank begins offering interest on demand deposits to attract additional customers or maintain current customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Federal and state banking agencies periodically conduct examinations of our business, including compliance with laws and regulations, and our failure to comply with any supervisory actions to which we are or become subject as a result of such examinations may adversely affect us.
Federal and state banking agencies, including the Federal Reserve, the DBO and the FDIC, periodically conduct examinations of our business, including compliance with laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a federal banking agency were to determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of any of our operations had become unsatisfactory, or that the Company or its management was in violation of any law or regulation, it may take a number of different remedial actions as it deems appropriate. These actions include the power to enjoin "unsafe or unsound" practices, to require affirmative actions to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in our capital, to restrict our growth, to assess civil monetary penalties against our officers or directors, to remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate our deposit insurance. If we become subject to such regulatory actions, our business, results of operations and reputation may be negatively impacted.
We may in the future engage in additional FDIC-assisted transactions, which could present additional risk to our business.
We completed acquisitions of assets and assumption of deposits and liabilities of CNB on February 11, 2011 and of PDNB on April 27, 2012 from the FDIC. We acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of CNB and PDNB without entering into a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC. In the current economic environment, and subject to any requisite regulatory consent, we may potentially be presented with additional opportunities to acquire the assets and liabilities of other failed banks in FDIC-assisted transactions. The CNB acquisition, the PDNB acquisition and any future acquisitions involve risks similar to acquiring existing banks even though the FDIC might provide assistance to mitigate certain risks such as sharing in exposure to loan losses and providing
indemnification against certain liabilities of the failed institution. However, because FDIC-assisted transactions are structured in a manner that would not allow us the time normally associated with preparing for and evaluating an acquisition, including preparing for integration of an acquired institution, we may face additional risks if we engage in FDIC-assisted transactions. The risks related to the CNB acquisition, the PDNB acquisition and other future FDIC-assisted transactions include, among other things, the loss of customers, strain on management resources related to collection and management of problem loans and problems related to integration of personnel and operating systems. We may not be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with the CNB acquisition, the PDNB acquisition or other future FDIC-assisted transactions. Our inability to overcome these risks could have an adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business strategy and maintain our market value and profitability.
Moreover, even if we were inclined to participate in additional FDIC-assisted transactions, there are no assurances that the FDIC would allow us to participate or what the terms of such transaction might be or whether we would be successful in acquiring the bank or assets that we are seeking. We may be required to raise additional capital as a condition to, or as a result of, participation in FDIC-assisted transactions. Any such transactions and related issuances of stock may have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and share ownership.
Furthermore, to the extent we are allowed to, and choose to, participate in additional FDIC-assisted transactions, we may face competition from other financial institutions with respect to the proposed FDIC-assisted transactions. To the extent that our competitors are selected to participate in FDIC-assisted transactions, our ability to identify and attract acquisition candidates and/or make acquisitions on favorable terms may be adversely affected.
Our HOA business is substantially dependent upon its relationship with Associa, which is the entity that owns and controls the HOA management companies that manage the HOAs from which we receive a majority of our HOA deposits.
On March 15, 2013, we acquired FAB, which is exclusively focused on providing deposit and other services to HOAs and HOA management companies nationwide. A majority of our HOA customers are also customers of the HOA management companies controlled by Associations, Inc. (“Associa”). At December 31, 2015, approximately 60% of the HOA transaction deposits we held were derived from our relationship with Associa. We will continue to rely on the relationship with Associa to solicit HOA deposits as deemed necessary. If Associa or its HOA management companies lose some or all of their HOA customers, fall into financial or legal difficulty or elect to reduce the amount of HOA customers that it directs to us, it could have a material and adverse effect upon our business, including the decline or total loss of all of the deposits from the HOA management companies and the HOAs. We cannot assure you that we would be able to replace the relationship with Associa and its HOA management companies if any of these events occurred, which could have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In connection with the closing of the FAB acquisition, we appointed John Carona to the boards of directors of the Company and the Bank. Mr. Carona is the founder, chief executive officer and a director of Associa.
Potential acquisitions may disrupt our business and dilute stockholder value.
We evaluate merger and acquisition opportunities and conduct due diligence activities related to possible transactions with other financial institutions on an ongoing basis. As a result, merger or acquisition discussions and, in some cases, negotiations may take place and future mergers or acquisitions involving cash, debt or equity securities may occur at any time. Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values, and, therefore, some dilution of our stock’s tangible book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with any future transaction. Furthermore, failure to realize the expected revenue increases, cost savings, increases in geographic or product presence, and/or other projected benefits from recent or future acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We may seek merger or acquisition partners that are culturally similar and have experienced management and possess either significant market presence or have potential for improved profitability through financial management, economies of scale or expanded services. We do not currently have any specific plans, arrangements or understandings regarding such expansion. We cannot say with any certainty that we will be able to consummate, or if consummated, successfully integrate future acquisitions or that we will not incur disruptions or unexpected expenses in integrating such acquisitions. In attempting to make such future acquisitions, we anticipate competing with other financial institutions, many of which have greater financial and operational resources. Acquiring other banks, businesses, or branches involves various risks commonly associated with acquisitions, including, among other things:
Potential exposure to unknown or contingent liabilities of the target company;
Exposure to potential asset quality issues of the target company;
Difficulty and expense of integrating the operations and personnel of the target company;
Potential disruption to our business;
Potential diversion of management’s time and attention;
The possible loss of key employees and customers of the target company;
Difficulty in estimating the value of the target company; and
Potential changes in banking or tax laws or regulations that may affect the target company.
Our controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented.
Management regularly reviews and updates our internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Environmental liabilities with respect to properties on which we take title may have a material effect on our results of operations.
We could be subject to environmental liabilities on real estate properties we foreclose and take title in the normal course of our business. In connection with environmental contamination, we may be held liable to governmental entities or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties, or we may be required to investigate or clean-up hazardous or toxic substances at a property. The investigation or remediation costs associated with such activities could be substantial. Furthermore, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination even if we were the former owner of a contaminated site. The incurrence of a significant environmental liability could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Confidential customer information transmitted through the Bank’s online banking service is vulnerable to security breaches and computer viruses, which could expose the Bank to litigation and adversely affect its reputation and ability to generate deposits.
The Bank provides its customers the ability to bank online. The secure transmission of confidential information over the Internet is a critical element of online banking. The Bank’s network could be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses, phishing schemes and other security problems. The Bank may be required to spend significant capital and other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches and computer viruses, or to alleviate problems caused by security breaches or viruses. To the extent that the Bank’s activities or the activities of its customers involve the storage and transmission of confidential information, security breaches and viruses could expose the Bank to claims, litigation and other possible liabilities. Any inability to prevent security breaches or computer viruses could also cause existing customers to lose confidence in the Bank’s systems and could adversely affect its reputation and ability to generate deposits.
We are dependent on our key personnel.
Our future operating results depend in large part on the continued services of our key personnel, including Steven R. Gardner, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, who developed and implemented our business strategy. The loss of Mr. Gardner could have a negative impact on the success of our business strategy. In addition, we rely upon the services of EddieEdward Wilcox, our Senior Executive Vice President and Chief BankingOperating Officer of the Bank, and Ronald Nicolas, Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and the Bank, and our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on any employee other than Mr. Gardner. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary for the development of our business. The unexpected loss of services of our key personnel could have a material adverse impact on our business because of their skills, knowledge of our market, years of industry experience and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel. In addition, recent regulatory proposals and guidance relating to compensation may negatively impact our ability to retain and attract skilled personnel.
Security breaches and other disruptions, whether in our systems or those of our contracted partners, could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer.
In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including our proprietary business information and personally identifiable information of our customers and employees in our data centers and on our networks. The secure maintenance and transmission of this information is critical to our operations. Although we devote significant resources to maintain and regularly update our systems and processes that are designed to protect the security of our computer systems, software, networks and other technology assets, as well as the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information belonging to us and our customers, there is no assurance that all of our security measures will provide absolute security.
Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Like many financial institutions, we can be subject to attempts to infiltrate the security of our websites or other systems which can involve sophisticated and targeted attacks intended to obtain unauthorized access to confidential information, destroy data, disrupt service, sabotage systems or cause other damage, including through the introduction of computer viruses or malware, cyberattacks and other means. We can be targeted by individuals and groups using malicious code and viruses, and can be exposed to distributed denial-of-service attacks with the objective of disrupting on-line banking services.
Despite efforts to ensure the security and integrity of our systems, it is possible that we may not be able to anticipate, detect or recognize threats to our systems or to implement effective preventive measures against all security breaches of these types inside or outside our business, especially because the techniques used frequently are not recognized until launched, and because cyberattacks can originate from a wide variety of sources, including individuals or groups who are or may be involved in organized crime, hostile foreign governments or linked to terrorist organizations. These risks may increase in the future as our web-based product offerings grow or we expand internal usage of web-based applications.
In addition, we outsource a significant portion of our data processing to certain third-party providers. If any of these third-party providers encounters difficulties, or if we have difficulty communicating with them, our ability to adequately process and account for transactions could be affected, and our business operations could be adversely affected. Threats to information security also exist in the processing of customer information through various other vendors and their personnel. We do not have direct control over the systems of these vendors and third-party providers and, were they to suffer a breach, our sensitive data, including customer information, could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen
A successful penetration or circumvention of the security of our systems or the systems of another market participant, our vendors or third party providers, which we refer to generally as a data breach, could cause serious negative consequences, including significant disruption of our operations, misappropriation of
confidential information, or damage to computers or systems, and may result in violations of applicable privacy and other laws, financial loss, loss of confidence, customer dissatisfaction, significant litigation exposure and harm to our reputation, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects.
Any such data breach could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, including regulatory mandates specific to the financial services industry, and regulatory penalties, disrupt our operations and the services we provide to customers, damage our reputation, and cause a loss of confidence in our products and services, which could adversely affect our business, revenues and competitive position.
We devote significant resources to protecting our and our customers’ information. To the extent that the expenses associated with these and future protective measures increase, our non-interest expenses may increase overall, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, we maintain cyber risk insurance coverage in amounts that we believe are reasonable based upon the scope of our activities. However, this insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover all of our losses from future data breaches of our systems or the systems of another market participant or our vendors or third party providers. If our cyber risk insurance is insufficient with respect to covering all of the losses resulting from any such future data breach, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our controls, processes and procedures may fail or be circumvented.
Management regularly reviews and updates our internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls, processes and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls, processes and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls, processes and procedures could necessitate changes in those controls, processes and procedures, which may increase our compliance costs, divert management attention from our business or subject us to regulatory actions and increased regulatory scrutiny. Any of these could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition.
A natural disaster or recurring energy shortage, especially in California, could harm our business.
We are based in Irvine, California and, at December 31, 2018, approximately 54%59% of the aggregate outstanding principal of our loans was secured by real estate were located in California at December 31, 2015.California. In addition, the computer systems that operate our Internet websites and some of their back-up systems are located in Irvine and San Diego, California. Historically, California has been vulnerable to natural disasters. Therefore, we are susceptible to the risks of natural disasters, such as earthquakes, wildfires, floods and mudslides. Natural disasters could harm our operations directly through interference with communications, including the interruption or loss of our information technology structure and websites, which wouldcould prevent us from gathering deposits, originating loans and processing and controlling our flow of business, as well as through the destruction of facilities and our operational, financial and management information systems. A natural disaster or recurring power outages may also impair the value of our largest class of assets, our loan portfolio, which is comprised substantially of real estate loans. Uninsured or underinsured disasters may reduce borrowers’ ability to repay mortgage loans. Disasters may also reduce the value of the real estate securing our loans, impairing our ability to recover on defaulted loans through foreclosure and making it more likely that we would suffer losses on defaulted loans. California has also experienced energy shortages, which, if they recur, could impair the value of the real estate in those areas affected. Although we have implemented several back-up systems and protections (and maintain business interruption insurance), these measures may not protect us fully from the effects of a natural disaster. The occurrence of natural disasters or energy shortages in California could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Environmental liabilities with respect to properties on which we take title may have a material effect on our results of operations.
Although we perform limited environmental due diligence in conjunction with originating loans secured by properties we believe have environmental risk, we could be subject to environmental liabilities on real estate properties we foreclose upon and take title to in the normal course of our business. In connection with environmental contamination, we may be held liable to governmental entities or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties, or we may be required to investigate or clean-up hazardous or toxic substances at a property. The investigation or remediation costs associated with such activities could be substantial. Furthermore, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination even if we were the former owner of a contaminated site. The incurrence of a significant environmental liability could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These risks are present even though we perform environmental due diligence on our collateral properties. Such diligence may not reflect all current risks or threats, and unforeseen or unpredictable future events may cause a change in the environmental risk profile of a property after a loan has been made.
We may be unable to successfully compete with financial services companies and other companies that offer banking services.
We face direct competition from a significant number of financial institutions, many with a state-wide or regional presence, and in some cases, a national presence, in both originating loans and attracting deposits. Competition in originating loans comes primarily from other banks and finance companies, and more recently, financial technology (or “fintech”) companies, that make loans in our primary market areas. In addition banks with larger capitalizations and non-bank financial institutions that are not governed by bank regulatory restrictions have larger lending limits and are better able to serve the needs of larger customers. Many of these financial institutions are also significantly larger than us, have greater financial resources than we have, have established customer bases and name recognition. We compete for loans principally on the basis of interest rates and loan fees, the types of loans we offer and the quality of service that we provide to our borrowers. We also face substantial competition in attracting deposits from other banking institutions, money market and mutual funds, credit unions and other investment vehicles. Our ability to attract and retain deposits requires that we provide customers with competitive investment opportunities with respect to rate of return, liquidity, risk and other factors. To effectively compete, we may have to pay higher rates of interest to attract deposits, resulting in reduced profitability. In addition, we rely upon local promotional activities, personal relationships established by our officers, directors and employees and specialized services tailored to meet the individual needs of our customers in order to compete. If we are not able to effectively compete in our market area, our profitability may be negatively affected.
Our ability to attract and maintain customer and investor relationships depends largely on our reputation.
Damage to our reputation could undermine the confidence of our current and potential customers and investors in our ability to provide high-quality financial services. Such damage could also impair the confidence of our counterparties and vendors and ultimately affect our ability to effect transactions. Maintenance of our reputation depends not only on our success in maintaining our service-focused culture and controlling and mitigating the various risks described in this report, but also on our success in identifying and appropriately addressing issues that may arise in areas such as potential conflicts of interest, anti-money laundering, customer personal information and privacy issues, customer and other third-party fraud, record-keeping, technology-related issues including but not limited to cyber fraud, regulatory investigations and any litigation that may arise from the failure or perceived failure to comply with legal and regulatory requirements. Maintaining our reputation also depends on our ability to successfully prevent third parties from infringing on our brands and associated trademarks and our other intellectual property. Defense of our reputation, trademarks and other intellectual property, including through litigation, could result in costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
We are subject to extensive regulation, which could adversely affect our business.
Our operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on part or all of our operations. Federal and state banking regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws or regulations by financial institutions and bank holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. The exercise of regulatory authority may have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, in order to conduct certain activities, including acquisitions, we are required to obtain regulatory approval. There can be no assurance that any required approvals can be obtained, or obtained without conditions or on a timeframe acceptable to us.
Because our business is highly regulated, the laws, rules and regulations applicable to us are subject to regular modification and change. Regulations affecting banks and other financial institutions, such as the Dodd-Frank Act, are continuously reviewed and change frequently. For instance, the Dodd-Frank Act has changed the bank regulatory framework, created an independent consumer protection bureau that has assumed the consumer protection responsibilities of the various federal banking agencies, and established more stringent capital standards for banks and bank holding companies. The ultimate effect of such changes cannot be predicted. Because our business is highly regulated, compliance with such regulations and laws may increase our costs and limit our ability to pursue business opportunities. There can be no assurance that laws, rules and regulations will not be proposed or adopted in the future, which could (i) make compliance much more difficult or expensive, (ii) restrict our ability to originate, modify, broker or sell loans or accept certain deposits, (iii) restrict our ability to foreclose on property securing loans, (iv) further limit or restrict the amount of commissions, interest or other charges earned on loans originated or sold by us, or (v) otherwise materially and adversely affect our business or prospects for business. These risks could affect our deposit funding and the performance and value of our loan and investment securities portfolios, which could negatively affect our financial performance and financial condition.
While recent federal legislation has scaled back portions of the Dodd-Frank Act and the current administration in the United States may further roll back or modify certain of the regulations adopted since the financial crisis, including those adopted under the Dodd-Frank Act, uncertainty about the timing and scope of any such changes as well as the cost of complying with a new regulatory regime, may negatively impact our business, at least in the short-term, even if the long-term impact of any such changes are positive for our business.
We are subject to heightened regulatory requirements as our total assets exceed $10 billion.
With the acquisition of Grandpoint on July 1, 2018, our total assets exceeded $10 billion during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The Dodd-Frank Act and its implementing regulations impose various additional requirements on bank holding companies with $10 billion or more in total assets, including a more frequent and enhanced regulatory examination regime. In addition, banks, including ours, with $10 billion or more in total assets are primarily examined by the CFPB with respect to various federal consumer financial protection laws and regulations, with the Federal Reserve maintaining supervision over some consumer related regulations. Previously, the Federal Reserve has been primarily responsible for examining our Bank’s compliance with consumer protection laws. As a relatively new agency with evolving regulations and practices, there is some uncertainty as to how the CFPB examination and regulatory authority might impact our business.
One key Dodd-Frank Act requirement applicable to banks with $10 billion or more in total assets has been compulsory stress testing (Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test or “DFAST”). The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law on May 24, 2018, increased the asset threshold at which company-run stress tests are required from $10 billion to $250 billion. The elimination of DFAST has not eliminated the expectation of the regulatory agencies that we will conduct enhanced capital stress testing. However, standards establishing the framework surrounding such expectations have not been announced. The
unknown nature and extent of future stress testing requirements creates uncertainty with respect to the impact of those requirements on our business.
Compliance with stress testing requirements may necessitate that we hire additional compliance or other personnel, design and implement additional internal controls, or incur other significant expenses, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations
Federal and state regulatory agencies periodically conduct examinations of our business, including compliance with laws and regulations, and our failure to comply with any supervisory actions to which we are or become subject as a result of such examinations may adversely affect us.
Federal and state regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve, the DBO and the FDIC, periodically conduct examinations of our business, including compliance with laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a regulatory agency were to determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of any of our operations had become unsatisfactory, or that the Company or its management was in violation of any law or regulation, it may take a number of different remedial actions as it deems appropriate. These actions include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices, to require affirmative actions to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in our capital, to restrict our growth, to assess civil monetary penalties against our officers or directors, to remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate our deposit insurance. If we become subject to such regulatory actions, our business, results of operations and reputation may be negatively impacted.
Changes in the value of goodwill and intangible assets could reduce our earnings.
When the Company acquires a business, a substantial portion of the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. The amount of the purchase price, which is allocated to goodwill and other intangible assets is determined by the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $909.3 million of goodwill and intangible assets, which includes goodwill of approximately $808.7 million resulting from the acquisitions the Company has consummated since 2011. The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which, in general, requires that goodwill not be amortized, but rather that it is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. In testing for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment of goodwill and intangible assets which considers the impact that various relevant economic, industry, market and company specific factors may have on the value of the Company. The Company’s qualitative assessment considers known positive and negative as well as any mitigating events and circumstances associated with each relevant factor that may be deemed to have an impact on the value of the Company. Should the Company’s qualitative assessment indicate the value of goodwill and intangible assets could be impaired, a quantitative assessment is then performed to determine if there is impairment. This assessment involves determining the fair value of the reporting unit (which in our case is the Company) and comparing that determination of fair value to the carrying value of the Company in order to quantify the amount of possible impairment. The estimation of fair values involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity in the assumptions used. Changes in the local and national economy, the federal and state legislative and regulatory environments for financial institutions, the stock market, interest rates and other external factors (such as natural disasters or significant world events) may occur from time to time, often with great unpredictability, and may materially impact the fair value of publicly traded financial institutions and result in an impairment charge at a future date. If we were to conclude that a future write-down of our goodwill or intangible assets is necessary, we would record the appropriate charge, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Recent and potential future acquisitions may disrupt our business.
We have consummated ten acquisitions since 2010. Most recently, on July 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Grandpoint, the holding company of Grandpoint Bank, a California state-chartered bank with $3.2 billion in total assets. The success of the Grandpoint acquisition or any future acquisition we may consummate will depend on, among other things, our ability to realize the anticipated revenue enhancements and efficiencies and to combine the businesses of Pacific Premier with Grandpoint or the target institution, as the case may be, in a manner that does not materially disrupt the existing customer relationships of Grandpoint or the target institution, as the case may be, or result in decreased revenues resulting from any loss of customers, and that permits growth opportunities to occur. If we are not able to successfully achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the subject acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.
It is possible that the ongoing Grandpoint integration process or the integration process associated with any future acquisition could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions. Integration efforts could also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on the combined company.
Potential future acquisitions may dilute stockholder value.
We continue to evaluate merger and acquisition opportunities and conduct due diligence activities related to possible transactions with other financial institutions on an ongoing basis. As a result, merger or acquisition discussions and, in some cases, negotiations may take place and future mergers or acquisitions involving cash, debt or equity securities may occur at any time. Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values, and, therefore, some dilution of our stock’s tangible book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with any future transaction. Furthermore, failure to realize the expected revenue increases, cost savings, increases in geographic or product presence, and/or other projected benefits from recent or future acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We cannot say with any certainty that we will be able to consummate, or if consummated, successfully integrate future acquisitions or that we will not incur disruptions or unexpected expenses in integrating such acquisitions. In attempting to make such future acquisitions, we anticipate competing with other financial institutions, many of which have greater financial and operational resources. Acquiring other banks, businesses, or branches involves various risks commonly associated with acquisitions, including, among other things:
Potential exposure to unknown or contingent liabilities of the target company;
Exposure to potential asset quality issues of the target company;
Potential disruption to our business;
Potential diversion of management’s time and attention;
The possible loss of key employees and customers of the target company;
Difficulty in estimating the value of the target company; and
Potential changes in banking or tax laws or regulations that may affect the target company.
The tax reform legislation enacted in late 2017 could negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In late 2017, the U.S. Congress passed significant legislation reforming the Internal Revenue Code known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, we completed the process of determining the accounting for the income tax effect of the Tax Act under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, as disclosed in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and subsequent filings made by us with the SEC. Although the Company has generally benefited from the legislation’s reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate, a tax rate reduction has broader implications for the Company’s operations as the new rates could cause positive or negative impacts on loan demand and on the Company’s pricing models, municipal bonds, tax credits and CRA investments and capital market transactions. Additionally, the interest deduction limitation implemented by the new tax law could make some businesses and industries less inclined to borrow, potentially reducing demand for the Company’s commercial loan products.
Technical corrections or other forthcoming guidance could change how we interpret provisions of the Tax Act, which may impact our effective tax rate and could affect our deferred tax assets, tax positions and/or our tax liabilities. The ultimate overall impact of any tax reform on our business, customers and shareholders is uncertain and could be adverse.
Changes in the fair value of our investment securities may reduce our stockholders’ equity and net income.
At December 31, 2018, $1.10 billion of our securities were classified as available-for-sale. At such date, the aggregate net unrealized loss on our available-for-sale securities was $7.9 million. We increase or decrease stockholders’ equity by the amount of change from the unrealized gain or loss (the difference between the estimated fair value and the amortized cost) of our available-for-sale securities portfolio, net of the related tax, under the category of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss. Therefore, a decline in the estimated fair value of this portfolio will result in a decline in reported stockholders’ equity, as well as book value per common share and tangible book value per common share. This decrease will occur even though the securities are not sold. In the case of debt securities, if these securities are never sold and there are no credit impairments, the decrease will be recovered over the life of the securities. In the case of equity securities, which have no stated maturity, the declines in fair value may or may not be recovered over time.
At December 31, 2018, we had stock holdings in the FHLB of San Francisco totaling $19.6 million, $51.5 million in FRB stock, and $37.7 million in other stock, all carried at cost. The stock held by us is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. For the year ended December 31, 2018, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our stock holdings. There can be no assurance that future negative changes to the financial condition of the issuers may require us to recognize an impairment charge with respect to such stock holdings.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
The price of our common stock, like many of our peers, has fluctuated significantly over the recent past and may fluctuate significantly and thisin the future, which may make it difficult for you to resell your shares of common stock at times or at prices you find attractive.
Stock price volatility may make it difficult for holders of our common stock to resell their common stock when desired and at desirable prices. Our stock price can fluctuate significantly in response to a variety of factors including, among other things:
Inaccurate management decisions regarding the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired which could materially affect our financial condition;
Natural disasters, fires, and severe weather;
Internal controls may fail;
Reliance on other companies to provide key components of our business processes;
Meeting capital adequacy standards and the need to raise additional capital in the future if needed, including through future sales of our common stock;
Actual or anticipated variations in quarterly results of operations;
Recommendations by securities analysts;
Failure of securities analysts to cover, or continue to cover, us;
Operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;
News reports relating to trends, concerns and other issues in the financial services industry, including the failures of other financial institutions in the current economic downturn;
Perceptions in the marketplace regarding us and/or our competitors;
Departure of our management team or other key personnel;
Cyber security breaches of the company or contracted partners;
New technology used, or services offered, by competitors;
Significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving us or our competitors;
Failure to integrate acquisitions or realize anticipated benefits from acquisitions;
Existing or increased regulatory and compliance requirements, changes or proposed changes in laws or regulations, or differing interpretations thereof affecting our business, or enforcement of these laws and regulations;
Litigation and governmental investigations;
Changes in government regulations; and
Geopolitical conditions such as acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts.
General market fluctuations, industry factors and general economic and political conditions and events, such as economic slowdowns or recessions, interest rate changes or credit loss trends, could also cause our stock price to decrease regardless of operating results as evidenced by the current volatility and disruption of capital and credit markets.
A limited trading market has historically existed for our common stock, which could lead to significant price volatility.
Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the trading symbol “PPBI,” but there has historically been a relatively low trading volume in our common stock. Although we recently issued additional shares of our common stock in our acquisition of Security California Bancorp that closed in January 2016, we may continue to experience a limited trading market for our common stock, which may cause fluctuations in the market value of our common stock to be exaggerated, leading to price volatility in excess of that which would occur in a more active trading market of our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the common stock. In addition, even if a more active market in our common stock develops, we cannot assure you that such a market will continue.
We have retained earnings, if any, to provide funds for use in our business.
It is our policy to retain earnings, if any, to provide funds for use in our business. We have never declared or paid dividends on our common stock. In addition, in order to pay cash dividends over time to our stockholders, we would most likely need to obtain funds from the Bank. The Bank’s ability, in turn, to pay dividends to us is subject to restrictions set forth in the Financial Code. The Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its stockholders in excess of the lesser of (1) a bank’s retained earnings; or (2) a bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made by the bank or by any majority-owned subsidiary of the bank to the stockholders of the bank during such period. However, a bank may, with the approval of the DBO, make a distribution to its stockholders in an amount not exceeding the greatest of (a) its retained earnings; (b) its net income for its last fiscal year; or (c) its net income for its current fiscal year. In the event that banking regulators determine that the stockholders’ equity of a bank is inadequate or that the making of a distribution by the bank would be unsafe or unsound, the regulators may order the bank to refrain from making a proposed distribution.
Approval of the Federal Reserve is required for payment of any dividend by a state chartered bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve Board System, such as the Bank, if the total of all dividends declared by the bank in any calendar year would exceed the total of its retained net income for that year combined with its retained net income for the preceding two years. In addition, a state member bank may not pay a dividend in an amount greater than its undivided profits without regulatory and stockholder approval. The Bank is also prohibited under federal law from paying any dividend that would cause it to become undercapitalized.

Dividends
It is our policy to retain earnings, if any, to provide funds for use in our business.In January 2019, we announced the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend. We have neverhad not previously declared or paid dividends on our common stock. On January 28, 2019, the Corporation��s board of directors declared a $0.22 per share cash dividend, payable on March 1, 2019 to shareholders of record on February 15, 2019. The Corporation anticipates continuing a regular quarterly cash dividend thereafter targeting a 35% initial payout ratio. However, we have no obligation to pay dividends and we may change our dividend policy at any time without notice to our shareholders. Any future determination to pay dividends to holders of our common stock will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, banking regulations, contractual restrictions and any other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.
Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock is dependent on the Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Corporation. Various statutory provisions restrict the amount of dividends that the Bank can pay without regulatory approval. For information on the statutory and regulatory limitations on the ability of the Corporation to pay dividends to its stockholders and on the Bank to pay dividends to the Corporation, see “Item 1. Business-Supervision and Regulation—Dividends” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity.”
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On October 26, 2018, the Corporation’s board of directors approved its third stock repurchase program. Under the third stock repurchase program, the Corporation is authorized to repurchase up to $100 million of its common stock. The program may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company did not repurchase any shares under the recently approved stock repurchase program. The stock repurchase program is intended to replace and supersede the Company’s prior stock repurchase program, which was approved in June 2012 and authorized the repurchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. An aggregate of 237,455 shares were repurchased under that program.
The following table provides information with respect to purchases made by or on behalf of us or any “affiliated purchaser” (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act) of our common stock during the fourth quarter of 2018.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'SMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is intended to provide a better understanding of the significant changes in trends relating to the Company’s financial condition, results of operation, liquidity and capital resources. This section should be read in conjunction with the disclosures regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” set forth in “Item I. Business-Forward Looking Statements”, as well as the discussion set forth in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” including the notes to consolidated financial statements.
Acquisition of Grandpoint
Effective July 1, 2018, we completed our acquisition of Grandpoint pursuant to an agreement and plan of reorganization dated as of February 9, 2018 by and between the Corporation and Grandpoint. Prior to the acquisition, Grandpoint was headquartered in Los Angeles, California and operated 14 regional offices in Southern California. As a result of the acquisition, the Bank acquired approximately$3.05 billion in total assets, $2.40 billion in gross loans and $2.51 billion in total deposits as of the date of the acquisition.
In connection with the consummation of the acquisition, the Corporation issued approximately 15,758,089 shares of its common stock valued at $38.15 per share, which was the closing price for the Corporation’s common stock on June 29, 2018, which was the last trading day prior to the consummation of the merger. The value of the total transaction consideration was approximately $601.2 million after approximately $28.1 million in aggregate cash consideration payable to holders of Grandpoint share-based compensation awards by Grandpoint.
Goodwill in the amount of $313.0 million was recognized in the Grandpoint acquisition. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits rising from net assets acquired that are not individually identified and separately recognized and is attributable to synergies expected to be derived from the combination of the two entities. Goodwill recognized in this transaction is not deductible for income tax purposes.
Grandpoint acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined based on the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Such fair values are preliminary estimates and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of acquisition as additional information relative to the closing date fair values becomes available and such information is considered final, whichever is earlier. Fair value adjustments will be finalized no later than July 2019.
Summary
Our principal business is attracting deposits from small and middle market businesses and consumers and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, primarily in commercial business loans and various types of commercial real estate loans. The Company expects to fund substantially all of the loans that it originates or purchases through deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings and internally generated funds. Deposit flows and cost of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest primarily on competing investments, account maturities and the levels of savings in the Company’s market area. The Company generates the majority of its revenues from interest income on loans that it originates and purchases, income from investment in securities and service charges on customer accounts. The Company’s revenues are partially offset by interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings, the provision for loan losses and noninterest expenses, such as operating expenses. The Company’s operating expenses primarily consist of employee compensation and benefit expenses, premises and occupancy expenses, data processing and communication
expenses and other general expenses. The Company'sCompany’s results of operations are also affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition, government policies and other actions of regulatory agencies.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have established various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements in Item 8 hereof. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in the Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers these to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions management uses are based on historical experience and other factors, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at consolidated statements of financial condition dates and the Company’s results of operations for future reporting periods.
Allowance for Loan Losses
We consider the determination of ALLL to be among our critical accounting policies, that requirerequiring judicious estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements that isand being particularly susceptible to significant change. The Company maintains an ALLL at a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for known or inherent risksprobable incurred losses in the portfolio at the consolidated statements of financial condition date. The Company has implemented and adheres to an internal assetloan review system and loss allowance methodology designed to provide for the detection of problem assetsloans and maintenance of an adequate allowance to cover loan losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of ALLL is based on an evaluation of the composition of the portfolio, actual loss experience, industry charge-off experience on income property loans, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors in the areaareas in which the Company’s lending and real estate activities are based. These factors may affect the borrowers’ ability to pay and the value of the underlying collateral. The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to loans held for investment according to loan program type and loan credit classification. The loss factors are evaluated on a quarterly basis and established based primarily upon the Bank’s historical loss experience and, to a lesser extent, the industry charge-off experience and are evaluated on a quarterly basis.experience. Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s ALLL. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management. In the opinion of management, and in accordance with the credit loss allowance methodology, the present allowance is considered adequate to absorb estimable and probable credit losses. Additions and reductions to the allowance are reflected in current operations. Charge-offs to the allowance are made when specific assetsloans (or portions thereof) are considered uncollectible or are transferred to OREO and the fair value of the property is less than the loan’s recorded investment. Recoveries are credited to the allowance.
Although management uses the best information available to make these estimates, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond the Company’s control. For further information on the ALLL, see Notes 1 and 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 hereof.
Business Combinations
We account for acquisitions under the acquisition method. All identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets and other identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Identifiable intangible assets include core deposit intangibles, which have a definite life. Core deposit intangibles ("CDI"(“CDI”) are subsequently amortized over the estimated life up to 10 years and are tested for impairment quarterly.annually. Goodwill generated from business combinations is deemed to have an indefinite life and is not subject to amortization, and instead is tested for impairment at least annually.
As part of the estimation of fair value, we review each loan or loan pool acquired to determine whether there is evidence of deterioration in credit quality since inception and if it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual loan agreements. We consider expected prepayments and estimated cash flows including principal and interest payments at the date of acquisition. If a loan is determined to be a purchased credit impaired ("PCI"(“PCI”) loan, the amount in excess of the estimated future cash flows is not accreted into earnings.earnings (non-accretable difference). The amount in excess of the estimated future cash flows over the book value of the loan is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield). The Company records these loans on the acquisition date at their net realizable value. Thus, an allowance for estimated future losses is not established on the acquisition date. Losses or a reduction in cash flow, which arise subsequent to the date of acquisition are reflected as a charge through the provision for loan losses. An increase in the expected cash flows adjusts the level of the accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the remaining life of the loan.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns using the asset liability method. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates are considered. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are to be recognized for temporary differences that will result in deductible amounts in future years and for tax carryforwards if, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. See also Note 14 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 hereof.
35Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial instruments and to determine fair value disclosures. Investment securities available-for-sale are financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, we may be required to record at fair value other financial assets on a non-recurring basis, such as impaired loans and OREO. These non-recurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01 and measures the fair value of financial instruments reported at amortized cost on the consolidated statement of financial condition using the exit price notion. Further, we include in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities, the valuation methodologies used and its impact to earnings. Additionally, for financial instruments not recorded at fair value we disclose the estimate of their fair value.
Operating Results
Overview. The comparability of financial information is affected by our acquisitions. On January 26, 2015,July 1, 2018, the Company completed anthe acquisition of Independence Bank (“IDPK”) and Infinity Franchise Capital, LLC (“IFC”) was acquired on January 30, 2014.Grandpoint.
Non-GAAP Measurements
The Company uses certain non‑-GAAPnon-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that may be presented by other companies. The non-GAAP measures used in this Form 10-K include the following:
Adjusted net income: Earnings are adjusted to exclude the tax effected impact of merger and litigation expenses.
Adjusted net income for return on adjusted tangible common equity: Earnings are adjusted to exclude the tax effected impact of core deposit amortization and merger and litigation expenses.
Tangible common equity: Total stockholders'stockholders’ equity is reduced by the amount of intangible assets.assets, including goodwill.
Adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average tangible equity, tangible
Tangible common equity amounts and ratios, tangible assets and tangible book value per share: Given that the use of these measures is prevalent among banking regulators, investors and analysts, we disclose them in addition to return on average assets, return on average equity, equity-to-assets ratio, total assets and book value per share, respectively.

For 2015, including non-recurring merger-related expenses of $4.8 million associated with the acquisitions of Security and IDPK, the Company recorded net income of $25.5 million, or $1.19 per diluted share. For 2014, including non-recurring merger-related expenses of $864,000 associated with the acquisition of IDPK and $626,000 associated with the acquisition of Infinity, and a non-recurring $1.7 million litigation expense, the Company recorded net income of $16.6 million or $0.96 per diluted share. For 2013, including non-recurring merger-related expenses of $5.0 million associated with the acquisition of SDTB, $1.7 million associated with the acquisition of FAB and $203,000 associated with the acquisition of Infinity, the Company recorded net income of $9.0 million or $0.54 per share on a diluted basis.
Excluding the non-recurring merger-related expenses and litigation expense detailed above, the Company reported adjusted net income for 2015 of $28.9 million or $1.35 per share on a diluted basis, compared
with adjusted net income for 2014 of $18.5 million or $1.07 per share on a diluted basis and adjusted net income for 2013 of $13.3 million or $0.80 per share on a diluted basis.
The Company’s pre-tax income totaled $40.7 million in 2015, compared with pre-tax income of $27.3 million in 2014. The $13.4 million increase in the Company’s pre-tax income for 2015 compared to 2014 was principally due to higher net interest income of $32.7 million which was primarily related to an increase in interest earning assets from both organic growth and acquisitions. Non-interest income increased by $1.1 million, primarily from $1.7 million increase in net gains from the sales of loans. The aggregate increase in net interest income and non-interest income exceeded the $18.6 million increase in non-interest expense and the $1.7 million increase in provision for loan losses. The Company had higher operating expenses in 2015 primarily from compensation and benefits of $9.8 million, predominately due to an increase in staff from our acquisition activity and to a lesser extent to support organic growth, and an increase in merger related expenses of $3.3 million. In addition, our provision expense increased by $1.7 million, primarily related to our growth in the loan portfolio.
The Company’s pre-tax income totaled $27.3 million in 2014, compared with a pre-tax income of $14.6 million in 2013. The $12.8 million increase in the Company’s pre-tax income for 2014, compared to 2013 was primarily due to higher net interest income of $15.2 million which was primarily related to an increase in interest earning assets from organic growth as well as acquisitive growth. Non-interest income was higher in 2014 primarily from an increase in net gains from the sales of loans of $3.1 million, an increase in loan servicing fees of $565,000 and settlement proceeds of $1.1 million related to properties received from our FDIC-assisted acquisitions. Additionally, lower non-recurring merger-related expenses of $5.4 million associated with our acquisition activities contributed to the growth in pre-tax income. These increases to the Company's pre-tax income for 2014 were partially offset by higher operating expenses primarily from compensation and benefits of $5.7 million, primarily related to an increase in staff from our acquisition activity and internal growth, an established litigation expense of $1.7 million within our other expense category and higher deposit expenses of $1.1 million related to an increase in deposit balances. In addition, our provision expense increased by $2.8 million in 2014, primarily related to our growth in the loan portfolio.
For 2015, our return on average assets was 0.97% and our return on average equity was 9.31%. These returns were higher than our 2014 returns of 0.91% on average assets and 8.76% on average equity and higher than our 2013 returns of 0.62% on average assets and 5.61% on average equity.
Excluding non-recurring merger-related expenses and litigation expense detailed above, the Company’s 2015 adjusted return on average assets was 1.10% and adjusted return on average tangible common equity was 13.64%. These returns compare with an adjusted return on average assets of 1.01% and an adjusted return on average tangible common equity of 11.89% for 2014 and an adjusted return on average assets of 0.92% and an adjusted return on average tangible common equity of 9.63% for 2013. |

Net Interest Income. Our primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans, investment securities, and interest earning balances with financial institutions (“interest-earning assets”) and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings (“interest-bearing liabilities”). Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets. Net interest income is affected by changes in both interest rates and the volume and mix of interest earninginterest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
For 2015,2018, net interest income totaled $106$392.7 million, an increase of $32.7$145.2 million or 44.4% over 2014.59% from 2017. The increase reflected an increase in average interest-earning assets of $747 million$3.25 billion, primarily due to the acquisition of Grandpoint on July 1, 2018 and an increasePLZZ on November 1, 2017, which at acquisition added $2.40 billion and $1.06 billion of loans, respectively, and organic loan growth from new loan originations of $1.62 billion in the average yield of 9 bps,2018, partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing liabilities of $475 million$1.81 billion and 8 bps increase in the average costloan paydowns of interest-bearing liabilities. The net$1.28 billion. Net interest margin expanded by 4 bps as a result ofincreased 1 basis point to 4.44% from 2017, primarily due to the yield on earninginterest-earning assets’ increasing 23 basis points and a higher level of increases in the balances of interest-earning assets increasingrelative to interest-bearing liabilities, offset by more than thea 41 basis point increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, as well as the $231 million increase in non-interest bearing deposits. The increase in interest-earning assets was primarily related to our organic loan growth and our acquisition of Independence Bank in early 2015. The increase in interest-bearing liabilities was also due primarily to our acquisition of Independence Bank, as well as the impact of
having the $60 million of subordinated debt issued in August of 2014 at a fixed rate of 5.75% outstanding for full year.liabilities.
For 2014,2017, net interest income totaled $73.6$247.5 million, an increase of $15.2$94.4 million or 26.0% over 2013.62% from 2016. The increase reflected an increase in average interest-earning assets of $349.2 million$2.17 billion, primarily due to the acquisitions of HEOP and netPLZZ in the second and fourth quarter of 2017, respectively. Net interest margin of 3 bpsdecreased 5 basis points to 4.23%. The4.43% from 2016, primarily due to yield on interest-earning assets decreasing 4 basis points and a slight increase in average interest-earning assets was primarily related to our organic loan growth and a full year’s impact from our acquisitionscost of SDTB and FAB in 2013, as well as our acquisition of Infinity in early 2014. The increase in net interest margin is mainly attributable to an increase in yield on average interest-earning assets of 9 bps, primarily from deploying liquidity received in our acquisitions during 2013 to create a higher mix of loans, partially offset by a lower yield on loans of 28 bps. The lower loan yield primarily related to interest rates on loan originations during 2013 and 2014 that produced yields lower than the average yield on our existing loan portfolio. Also contributing to the increase in the net interest margin was a $97 million increase in average non interest bearing deposits in 2014, compared to 2013. An increase in borrowing costs of 22 bps resulted in increased interest-bearing liability costs of 8 bps in 2014. The increase in borrowing costs was the result of issuance of $60 million in subordinated debt, with an interest rate of 5.75%, in August of 2014 funds.
The following table presents for the periods indicated the average dollar amounts from selected balance sheet categories calculated from daily average balances and the total dollar amount, including adjustments to yields and costs, of:
Interest income earned from average interest-earning assets and the resultant yields; and
Interest expense incurred from average interest-bearing liabilities and resultant costs, expressed as rates.
The table also sets forth our net interest income, net interest rate spread and net interest rate margin for the periods indicated. The net interest rate spread represents the difference between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest rate margin reflects the ratio of net interest income as a percentage of interest-earning assets for the year.

Changes in our net interest income are a function of changes in both volumes and mix as well as rates of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table presents the impact the volume and rate changes have had on our net interest income for the years indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, we have provided information on changes to our net interest income with respect to:
Changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by the prior period rate);
Changes in interest rates (changes in interest rates multiplied by the prior period volume); and
The change or the combined impact of volume and rate changes allocated proportionately to changes in volume and changes in interest rates.

The increase in securities since year-end 2014in 2018 was primarily due to purchases of $100 million and securities acquired through the acquisition of IDPKGrandpoint, which increased securities by $393.1 million as well as purchases of $53.8$491.3 million, partially offset by sales/callssales of $27.6$393.1 million and calls, principal pay downs and amortization/accretion of $33.8$140.0 million. In general, the purchase of investment securities primarily related to investing excess liquidity from our banking operations, while the sales were made to help fund loan production, which improved our interest-earning asset mix by deploying investment securities dollars into higher yielding loans.

Delinquent Loans. When a borrower fails to make required payments on a loan and does not cure the delinquency within 30 days, we normally initiate formal collection activities including, for loans secured by real estate, recording a notice of default and, after providing the required notices to the borrower, commencing foreclosure proceedings. If the loan is not reinstated within the time permitted by law, we may sell the property at a foreclosure sale. At these foreclosure sales, we generally acquire title to the property. At December 31, 2015,2018, loans delinquent 60 or more days as a percentage of total gross loans held for investment was 117 basis point, uppoints, unchanged from less than 17 basis pointpoints at year-end 2014.2017.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of loans on which we have ceased accruing interest (nonaccrual loans), troubled debt restructured loans, OREO and OREO.other repossessed assets owned. Nonaccrual loans consisted of all loans 90 days or more past due and on loans where, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to the collection of principal and interest. A “restructured loan” is one where the terms of the loan were renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of deterioration in the financial position of the borrower. We did not have anyhad no troubled debt restructured loans during the periods presented.at December 31, 2018 and one troubled debt restructured loan with a recorded balance of $97,000 at December 31, 2017. At December 31, 2015,2018, we had $5.13$5.0 million of nonperforming assets, which consisted of $3.97$4.9 million of net nonperforming loans, $147,000 of OREO, and $1.16 million$13,000 of OREO.other repossessed assets owned. At December 31, 2014,2017, we had $2.48$3.6 million of nonperforming assets, which consisted of $1.44$3.3 million of nonperforming loans and $1.0 million$326,000 of OREO. The increase in nonperforming loans in 2018 as compared to 2017 was primarily due to an SBA loan of $997,000 from PLZZ acquisition in 2017 that became nonaccrual in 2018. It is our policy to take appropriate, timely and aggressive action when necessary to resolve nonperforming assets. When resolving problem loans, it is our policy to determine collectability under various circumstances, which are intended to result in our maximum financial benefit. We accomplish this by
working with the borrower to bring the loan current, selling the loan to a third party, or by foreclosing and selling the asset.
At December 31, 2015,2018, OREO consisted of one land property, compared to one commercial non-ownerowner occupied property and one land property compared to one land property and three single family properties at December 31, 2014.2017. Properties acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure are recorded at fair value less cost to sell. The Company generally obtains an appraisal and/or a market evaluation on all OREO prior to obtaining possession. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management as needed due to changing market conditions or factors specifically attributable to the property’s condition. If the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value, less estimated cost to sell, the asset is written down and a charge to operations is recorded.
We recognized loan interest income on nonperforming loans of $467,000 in 2015, $192,000 in 2014 and $225,000 in 2013. If these loans had paid in accordance with their original loan terms, we would have recorded additional loan interest income of $279,000 in 2015, $151,000 in 2014 and $311,000 in 2013.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan lossALLL is established as management'smanagement’s estimate of probable incurred losses inherent in the loan receivable portfolio. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance quarterly to maintain the allowance at levels sufficient to provide for these inherent losses. The ALLL is based upon the total loans evaluated individually and collectively, and is reported as a reduction of loans held for investment. The allowance is increased by a provision for loancredit losses, which is charged to expense and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded in current earnings.
We separate our assets, largely loans, by type, and we use various assetloan classifications to segregate the assetsloans into various risk grade categories. We use the various assetloan classifications as a means of measuring risk for determining the valuation allowance for groups and individual assets at a point in time. Currently, we designate our
assets into a category of “Pass,” “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” “Doubtful” or “Loss.” A brief description of these classifications follows:
Pass classifications represent assetsloans with a level of credit quality, which contain no well-defined deficiency or weakness.
Special Mention assetsloans do not currently expose the Bank to a sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the adverse categories, but possess correctable deficiency or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention.
Substandard assetsloans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. These assetsloans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful creditsloans have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard credits,loans, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss assets are those that are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted. Amounts classified as loss are promptly charged off.
Our determination as to the classification of assetsloans and the amount of valuation allowances necessary are subject to review by bank regulatory agencies, which can order a change in a classification or an increase to the allowance. While we believe that an adequate allowance for estimated loan losses has been established, there can be no assurance that our regulators, in reviewing assets including the loan portfolio, will not request us to materially increase our allowance for estimated loan losses, thereby negatively affecting our financial condition and earnings at that time. In addition, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further increases to the level of allowances for estimated loan losses may become necessary.
At December 31, 2015,2018, we had $19.4$61.5 million of assetsloans classified as substandard, compared to $16.6$48.3 million at December 31, 2014. During 2015, one loan amounting2017, with the increase primarily attributable to $1.5 million wasacquired classified as Doubtful. In 2014, thereloans of $26.7 million. There were no loans classified as Doubtful.doubtful as of year-end 2018 or 2017.

In determining the ALLL, we evaluate loan credit losses on an individual basis in accordance with the FASB ASCAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and on a collective basis based on FASB ASC 450, Accounting for Contingencies. For loans evaluated on an individual basis, we analyze the borrower’s creditworthiness, cash flows and financial status, and the condition and estimated value of the collateral. Loans evaluated individually that are deemed to be impaired are separated from our collective credit loss analysis.
Unless an individual borrower relationship warrants a separate analysis, the majority of our loans are evaluated for credit losses on a collective basis through a quantitative analysis to arrive at base loss factors that aremay be adjusted through a qualitative analysis for internalinternally- and external identifiedexternally-identified risks. The adjusted factor is applied against the loan risk category outstanding to determine the appropriate allowance. Our base loss factors are calculated using actual trailing twelve-month and annualized actual trailing six-month, twenty-four month, thirty-six month and eighty-four month charge-off data for all loan types except (1) Zero Factor loans, which includes loans fully secured by cash deposits, the guaranteed portion of SBA loans and FHA/VA guaranteed 1st TD loans, and (2) Overdraft Deposit Accounts, to which a base factor of 5% is applied. ThenPotential qualitative adjustments for the following internal and external risk factors are added to the base factors:include:
Internal Factors
Changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-offs, and recovery practices;
Changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and the terms of loans,, as well as new types of lending;
Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff that may have an impact on our loan portfolio;
Changes in the volume and severity of past due andadversely classified loans, and in the volume of non-accruals, troubled debt restructurings, and other loan modifications;or graded loans;
Changes in the quality of our loan review system and the degree of oversight by our board of directors;management oversight; and
The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations.
External Factors
Changes in national, state andor local economic and business conditions and developments that affectaffecting the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments (includes trends in real estate values, economic activity and the interest rate environment);
Changes in the value of the underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; and
The effect of external factors, such as competition, legal developments and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in our current loan portfolio.
The factor adjustments for each of the nine above-described risk factors are determined by the Chief Credit Officer and approved by the Credit and Portfolio Review Committee ("CPR") on a quarterly basis.
The ALLL factors are reviewed for reasonableness against the 10-year average, 15-year average, and trailing twelve month total charge-off data for all FDIC insured commercial banks and savings institutions based in California. Given the above evaluations, the amount of the ALLL is based upon the total loans evaluated individually and collectively.
Loans acquired through bank acquisition are recorded at fair value at acquisition date without a carryover of the related ALLL. LoansPurchased credit impaired loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality are loans that have evidence of credit deterioration since origination and as to which it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all of principal and interest payments according to the contractual terms. These loans are accounted for under ASC Subtopic 310-30 Receivables — Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.Quality.
As of December 31, 2015,2018, the ALLL totaled $17.3$36.1 million, an increase of $5.1$7.1 million from December 31, 2014 and $9.1 million from December 31, 2013.2017. At December 31, 2015,2018, the ALLL as a percent of nonperforming loans was 436.20%743%, compared with 844.88%881% at December 31, 2014 and 364.3% at December 31, 2013. 2017.
At December 31, 2015,2018, the ALLL as a percent of gross loans held for investment was 0.77%0.41%, an increasea decrease from 0.75%0.47% at December 31, 2014,2017. The decrease in the 2018 ratio was primarily attributable to the loans acquired from Grandpoint, recorded at fair value with no ALLL carried over. Loans acquired from acquisitions were recorded with an average fair value discount of 0.69% and an increase from 0.66%0.47% at December 31, 2013. The increase in the 2015 ratio was
primarily related to growth in our loan portfolio, as well as changes in the composition of the portfolio, including the growth in construction loans.2018 and 2017, respectively. At December 31, 2015,2018, management deems the ALLL to be sufficient to provide for inherentprobable incurred losses within the loan portfolio.

Stockholders'Stockholders’ Equity
At December 31, 2015,2018, our stockholders’ equity amounted to $299 million,$1.97 billion, compared with $200 million$1.24 billion at December 31, 2014.2017. The increase of $99.4$727.7 million or 49.8%59% is primarily due to net income in 20152018 of $25.5$123.3 million and an increase of $74.0$610.3 million additional paid-in capital, primarily as a result of the issuance of common stock inas part of the IDPKGrandpoint acquisition.
Liquidity
Our primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans, deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We seek to maintain a level of liquid assets to ensure a safe and sound operation. Our liquid assets are comprised of cash and unpledged investments. As part of our daily monitoring, we calculate a liquidity ratio by dividing the sum of cash balances plus unpledged securities by the sum of deposits that mature in one year or less plus transaction accounts and FHLB advances. At December 31, 2015,2018, our liquidity ratio was 13.36%12.38%, compared with 14.93%11.59% at December 31, 2014.2017.
We believe our level of liquid assets is sufficient to meet current anticipated funding needs. At December 31, 2015,2018, liquid assets of the Company represented approximately 11.8%9.8% of total assets, compared to 10.9%9.2% at December 31, 2014.2017. At December 31, 2015,2018, the Company had seveneight unsecured lines of credit with other correspondent banks to purchase federal funds totaling $120$168.0 million, one reverse repo line with a correspondent bank of $50.0 million and access through the Federal Reserve Bank discount window to borrow $3.3 million, as business needs dictate. We also have a line of credit with the FHLB allowing us to borrow up to 45% of the Bank’s total assets. At December 31, 2015,2018, we had a borrowing capacity of $533 million,$2.84 billion, based on collateral pledged at the FHLB, with $148$667.5 million outstanding in FHLB borrowing. The FHLB advance line is collateralized by eligible loans and FHLB stock.loans. At December 31, 2015,2018, we had approximately $620 million$3.30 billion of collateral pledged to secure FHLB borrowings.
At December 31, 2015,2018, the Company’s loan to deposit and borrowing ratio was 91.9%93.7%, compared with 89.6%92.5% at December 31, 2014.2017. The increase in the ratio from year-end 2014 to 2015 was primarily associated with our loans increasing at a faster rate relative to our deposits and borrowings during the period. Certificates of deposit, which are scheduled to mature in one year or less from December 31, 2015,2018, totaled $400 million.$1.11 billion. We expect to retain a substantial portion of the maturing certificates of deposit at maturity.
The CompanyBank has a policy in place that permits the purchase of brokered funds, in an amount not to exceed 20%15% of total deposits, or 12% of total assets, as a secondary source for funding. At December 31, 2015,2018, the Company had $155$401.6 million, or 5.6%3.5% of total assets, in brokered time deposits. At December 31, 2014,2017, the Company had $77$370.1 million, or 3.8%4.6% of total assets, in brokered time deposits.
The Corporation is a corporate entity separate and apart from the Bank that must provide for its own liquidity. The Corporation’s primary sources of liquidity are dividends from the Bank. There are statutory and regulatory provisions that limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Corporation. Management believes that such restrictions will not have a material impact on the ability of the Corporation to meet its ongoing cash obligations. The Corporation acquired a line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank in June of 2017, with availability of $15.0 million. The line, which matures in June 2019, was added to provide an additional source of liquidity at the Corporation level and has no outstanding balance at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
The Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its stockholders in excess of the lesser of a (i) bank’s retained earnings; or (ii) bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made by the bank or by any majority-owned subsidiary of the bank to the stockholders of the bank during such period. However, a bank may, with the approval of the DBO, make a distribution to its stockholders in an amount not exceeding the greatest of (x) its retained earnings; (y) its net income for its last fiscal year; or (z) its net income for its current fiscal year. In the event that the DBO determines that the stockholders’ equity of a bank is inadequate or that the making of a distribution by the bank would be unsafe or unsound, the DBO may order the bank to refrain from making a proposed distribution. Under these provisions, the amount available for distribution from the Bank to the Corporation was approximately $58.8$245.7 million at December 31, 2015.2018.
Prior to 2019, the Corporation never declared or paid dividends on its common stock. On January 28, 2019, the Corporation’s board of directors declared a $0.22 per share dividend, payable on March 1, 2019 to
shareholders of record on February 15, 2019. The Corporation anticipates that it will continue to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future, although there can be no assurance that payment of such dividends will continue or that they will not be reduced. The payment and amount of future dividends remain within the discretion of the Corporation’s board of directors and will depend on the Corporation’s operating results and financial condition, regulatory limitations, tax considerations, and other factors. Interest on deposits will be paid prior to payment of dividends on the Corporation’s common stock.
Capital Resources
The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can trigger certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
At December 31, 2015, the Bank’s leverage capital amounted to $304 million and risk-based capital amounted to $322 million. At December 31, 2014,2018, the Bank’s leverage capital was $222$1.19 billion and risk-weighted capital was $1.23 billion. At December 31, 2017, the Bank’s leverage capital was $805.1 million and risk-basedrisk-weighted capital was $234$835.9 million. Pursuant to regulatory guidelines under prompt corrective action rules, a bank must have total risk-basedrisk-weighted capital of 10.00% or greater, Tier 1 risk-basedrisk-weighted capital of 8.00% or greater, common equity tier 1
capital ratio of 6.5% and Tier I capital to adjusted tangible assets of 5.00% or greater to be considered ‘‘well“well capitalized.’’” At December 31, 2015,2018, the Bank’s total risk-basedrisk-weighted capital ratio was 13.07%12.28%, Tier 1 risk-basedrisk-weighted capital ratio was 12.35%11.87%, common equity Tier 1 risk-basedrisk-weighted capital ratio was 12.35%,11.87% and Tier I capital to adjusted tangible assets capital ratio was 11.41%11.06%. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 hereof for a discussion of the Bank’s and Company’sCorporation’s capital ratios.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
Our consolidated financial statements and related data presented in this annual reportAnnual Report on Form 10-K have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollar amounts (except with respect to securities classified as available for sale which are carried at market value) without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same magnitude as the price of goods and services.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 hereof for a listing of recently issued accounting pronouncements and the impact of them on the Company.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Asset/Liability Management and Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss in value or reduced earnings from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. OurThe Bank’s market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk in our lending and deposit taking activities. Interest rate risk primarily occurs to the degree that ourthe Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities reprice or mature on a different basis and frequency than ourits interest-earning assets. Since ourThe Bank’s earnings depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and dividends earned on interest-earning assets and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, our principal objectives areliabilities. Therefore, the Bank actively monitors and manages its portfolios to actively monitorlimit the adverse effects on net interest income and manage the effects of adverseeconomic value due to changes in interest rates on net interest income.rates.
OurThe Asset/Liability Committee is responsible for implementing the Bank’s interest rate risk management policy which sets forth limits established by the board of directors that sets forth limits of acceptable changes in net interest income (“NII”) and economic value of equity (“EVE”) fromdue to specified changes in interest rates. OurThe Asset/Liability Committee reviews, among other items, economic conditions, the interest rate outlook, the demand for loans, the availability of deposits and borrowings, and ourthe Bank’s current operating results, liquidity, capital and interest rate exposure. Based on these reviews, ourthe Asset/Liability Committee formulates a strategy that is intendedstrategies to implement the objectives set forth in ourthe business plan without exceedingwhile complying with the net interest income and EVEeconomic value limits set forth in our guidelines approved by ourthe Bank’s board of directors.
Interest Rate Risk Management. The principal objective of the Company’s interest rate risk management function is to evaluatemaintain an interest rate risk profile close to the desired risk profile in light of the interest rate outlook. The Bank measures the interest rate risk included in certainthe major balance sheet accounts, determineportfolios and compares the level of appropriatecurrent risk profile to the desired risk profile and manageto policy limits set by the risk consistent with prudent asset and liability concentration guidelines approved by our board of directors. We monitor asset and liability maturities and repricing characteristics on a regular basis and review various simulations and analysis to determineManagement then implements strategies consistent with the potential impact of various business strategies in controllingdesired risk profile. Currently, the Company’s interest rate risk and the potential impact of those strategies upon future earnings under various interest rate scenarios. OurBank’s primary strategy in managing interest rate risk is to emphasize the originationfocus originations for investment ofon adjustable rate loans or loans with relatively short maturities. Interest rates on adjustable rate loans are primarilymainly tied to 3-month or 6-month LIBOR index, 12-month moving average of yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjustedthe Prime rate. Likewise, the Bank seeks to a constant maturity of one year ("MTA") index and the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (“Prime”) index. Also as part of this strategy, we seek to lengthen our deposit maturities when deposit rates are considered in the lower end of the interest rate cycle and shorten our deposit maturities when deposit rates are considered in the higher end of the interest rate cycle.raise non-maturity deposits. Management often implements these strategies through pricing actions. Finally, we structure ourmanagement structures its security portfolio and borrowings to mitigateoffset some of the interest rate sensitivity created by the re-pricing characteristics of customer loans and deposits.
Management monitors asset and liability maturities and repricing characteristics on a regular basis and evaluates its interest rate risk as such riskit relates to its operational strategies. The Company’sManagement analyzes potential strategies for their impact on the interest rate risk profile. Each quarter the Corporation’s board of directors reviews on a quarterly basis the Company’sBank’s asset/liability position, including simulations ofshowing the effectimpact on the Bank’s capitaleconomic value of equity in various interest rate scenarios. The extent ofInterest rate moves, up or down, may subject the movement of interest rates, higher or lower, is an uncertainty that could have a negative impact on the earnings of the Company. If interest rates rise we may be subjectBank to interest rate spread compression, which would adversely impact ourimpacts its net interest income. This is primarily due to the lag in repricing of the indices, to which our adjustable rate loans and mortgage-backed securities are tied, as well as their repricing frequencies. Furthermore, large rate moves show the repricing frequencies andimpact of interest rate caps and floors on these adjustable rate loans and mortgage-backed securities.transactions. This is partly offset by lags in repricing for deposit products. The extent of the interest rate spread compression depends among other things, uponon the frequencydirection and severity of such interest rate fluctuations.moves and features in the Bank’s product portfolios.
The Company’s interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the use of both a simulation model that quantifies the estimated impact to earnings (Earnings(“Earnings at Risk)Risk”) for a twelve and twenty-four month period, and a model that estimates the change in the Company’s EVE under alternative interest rate scenarios, primarily non-parallelinstantaneous parallel interest rate shifts over a twelve month period in 100 basis point increments. The simulation model estimates the impact on earningsNII from changing interest rates on interest earningsearning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities. The EVE model computes the net present value of capitalequity by discounting all expected cash flows fromon assets and liabilities under each rate scenario. AnFor each scenario, the EVE is the present value of all assets less the present value of all liabilities. The EVE ratio is defined as the EVE divided by the market value of assets within the same scenario. The sensitivity measure is the largest decline in the EVE ratio, measured in basis points, caused by an increase or decrease in rates, and the higher an institution’s sensitivity measure, the greater exposure it has to interest rate risk.
The following table shows the projected net interest income and net interest margin of the Company at December 31, 2015,2018, assuming non-parallelinstantaneous parallel interest rate shifts over a twelve month period of 100, 200, and 300 basis points:in the first period: |

Based on the modeling of the impact on earnings and EVE from changes in interest rates, the Company'sCompany’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates is moderate.low for rising rates. Both the Earnings at Risk and the EVE increase as rates rise. It is important to note that the above tables are a summary offorecasts based on several forecastsassumptions and that actual results may vary. The forecasts are based on estimates of historical behavior and assumptions of Managementby management that may change over time and may turn out to be different and may change over time.different. Factors affecting these estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to (1) competitor behavior, (2) economic conditions both locally and nationally, (3) actions taken by the Federal Reserve, (4) customer behavior and (5) Management’s responses. Changes that vary significantly from the assumptions and estimates may have significant effects on the Company’s earnings and EVE.
Selected Assets and Liabilities which are Interest Rate Sensitive. The following table provides information regarding the Company’s primary categories of assets and liabilities that are sensitive to changes in interest rates for the year ended December 31, 2015. The information presented reflects the expected cash flows of the primary categories by year, including the related weighted average interest rate. The cash flows for loans are based on maturity and re-pricing date. The loans and MBSs that have adjustable rate features are presented in accordance with their next interest-repricing date. Cash flow information on interest-bearing liabilities, such as NOW accounts and money market accounts is also adjusted for expected decay rates, which are based on historical information. All certificates of deposit and borrowings are presented by maturity date. The weighted average interest rates for the various assets and liabilities presented are based on the actual rates that existed at December 31, 2015. The degree of market risk inherent in loans with prepayment features may not be completely reflected in the disclosures. Although we have taken into consideration historical prepayment trends adjusted for current market conditions to determine expected maturity categories, changes in prepayment behavior can be triggered by changes in many variables, including market rates of interest. Unexpected changes in these variables may increase or decrease the rate of prepayments from those anticipated. As such, the potential loss from such market rate changes may be significantly larger.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because management's assessment and our audit were conducted to also meet the reporting requirement of Section 112 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), management's assessment and our audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting included controls over the preparation of financial statements in accordance with instructions to the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Form FFIEC 041). A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and thethat receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)./s/ Crowe LLP
We have also audited, in accordance withserved as the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statements of financial condition of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2015, and our report dated March 4, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation—The preparation of Financial Statements - In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities asand disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the datesfinancial statements, as well as the reported amounts of the consolidated statements of financial conditionrevenues and the results of operations forexpenses during the reporting periods.period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significantEstimates may change relate to the determinationas new information is obtained.
The following discussion provides a summary of the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of stock-based compensation awards, the fair values of financial instruments and the status of contingencies.Company’s significant accounting policies:
Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash balances due from banks and fedfederal funds sold. Interest bearing deposits with financial institutions represent mostlyprimarily cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. At December 31, 2015, $71.9 million was allocated to2018, there were no cash reserves required by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”) for depository institutions based on the amount of deposits held. The Company maintains amounts due from banks that exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Securities—The Company has established written guidelines and objectives for its investing activities. At the time of purchase, management designates the security as either held to maturity, available for saleavailable-for-sale or held for
trading based on the Company’s investment objectives, operational needs and intent. The investments are monitored to ensure that those activities are consistent with the established guidelines and objectives.
Securities Held to MaturityHeld-to-Maturity—Investments in debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost and adjusted for unamortizedperiodic principal payments and the amortization of premiums and unearnedaccretion of discounts, that
which are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period of time to investment’s maturity. If the cost basis of these securities is determined to be other than temporarily impaired, the amount of the impairment is charged to operations.
Securities Available for SaleAvailable-for-Sale—Investments in debt securities that management has no immediate plan to sell, but which may be sold in the future, are valuedcarried at fair value. Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the remaining period to the call date for premiums or contractual maturity for discounts and, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, the estimated average life, which can fluctuate based on the anticipated prepayments on the underlying collateral of the securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, are excluded from earnings and reported asrecorded in a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income. If the cost basis of the security is deemed other than temporarily impaired the amount of the impairment is charged to operations. Realized gains and losses on the sales of securities are determined on the specific identification method, recorded on a trade date basis based on the amortized cost basis of the specific security and are included in noninterest income as net gain (loss) on investment securities.
Securities Held for Trading—Securities held for trading are carried at fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are reflected in earnings. The Company had no investment securities classified as held for trading at December 31, 2015 or 2014.
Impairment of Investments—DeclinesQuarterly, the Company evaluates investment securities in thean unrealized loss position for OTTI. In determining whether a security’s decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, the Company considers a number of individual held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are other-than-temporary impairments ("OTTI") result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. In estimating OTTI losses, management considers:factors including: (i) the length of time and the extent to which the marketfair value of the investment has been less than its amortized cost; (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain itshold the investment in a security for a period of time sufficient to allow for anyan anticipated recovery in marketfair value; (iv) downgrades in credit ratings; and (iv)(v) general market conditions which reflect prospects for the economy as a whole, including interest rates and sector credit spreads. If it is determined that an OTTI exists, and either the Company intends to sell the securityinvestment or it is likely the securityCompany will be required to sell the investment before its anticipated recovery, the total amount of the OTTI, will bewhich is measured as the amount by which the investment’s amortized cost exceeds its fair value, is recognized in current period earnings. If the Company has the intent and ability to retainhold the security,investment and it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the investment prior to an anticipated recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company will determine the amount of the impairment related to credit loss and the amount related to other factors. The portion related to the credit loss will be recognizedrecords in current period earnings and the portion of OTTI deemed to be credit related, while the remaining portion of OTTI deemed to other factors will be includednon-credit related is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Credit related losses are determined through a discounted cash flow analysis, which incorporates assumptions concerning the estimated timing and amounts of expected cash flows. Non-credit related OTTI losses result from other factors such as change in interest rates and general market conditions. The related write-downs are included in operations as realized lossespresentation of OTTI in the categoryconsolidated financial statements is on a gross basis with a reduction in the gross amount for the portion of other-than-temporary impairmentthe loss on investment securities, net. deemed non-credit related and is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Stock—The Bank is a member of the FHLB system.Federal Home Loan Bank System. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reportedrecorded as a component of interest income.
Federal Reserve Bank Stock—The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the “FRB”). FRB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are recorded as a component of interest income.
Loans Held for Sale— Small Business Administration ("SBA") loansLoans that the Company has the intent to sell prior to maturity have been designated as held for sale at origination and are recorded at lower of cost or fair market value. Gains or losses are recognized upon the sale of the loans on a specific identification basis.
Loan Servicing AssetAssets—Servicing assets are related to SBA loans sold and are recognized at the time of sale when servicing is retained with the income statement effect recorded in gains on sales of SBA loans. Servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value based on the present value of the contractually specified servicing fee, net of estimated servicing costs, over the estimated life of the loan, using a discount rate. The Company’s servicing costs approximates the industry average servicing costs of approximately 40 basis points. The servicing assets are subsequently amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans. The Company periodically evaluates servicing assets for impairment based upon the fair value of the assets as compared to their carrying amount.
The Company typically sells the guaranteed portion of SBA loans and retains the unguaranteed portion (“retained interest”). A portion of the premium on sale of SBA loans is recognized as gain on sale of loans at the time of the sale by allocating the carrying amount between the asset sold and the retained interest, based on their relative fair values. The remaining portion of the premium is recorded as a discount on the retained interest and is amortized over the remaining life of the loan as an adjustment to yield. The retained interest, net of any discount, are included in loans held for investment—net of allowance for loan losses in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.
Servicing assets are recognized when SBA loans are sold with servicing retained with the income statement effect recorded in gains on sales of SBA loans. Servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value based on the present value of the contractually specified servicing fee, net of servicing costs, over the estimated life of the
loan, using a discount rate. The Company’s servicing costs approximates the industry average servicing costs of 40 basis points. The servicing assets are subsequently amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans. The Company periodically evaluates servicing assets for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount.
Loans Held for Investment—Loans held for investment are loans the Company has the ability and intent to hold until their maturity. The loans are carried at amortized cost, net of discounts and premiums on purchased loans, deferred loan origination fees and costs and ALLL. Net deferred loan origination fees and costs on loans are amortized or accreted using the interest method over the expected life of the loans. Amortization of deferred loan fees and costs are discontinued for loans placed on nonaccrual. Any remaining deferred fees or costs and prepayment fees associated with loans that payoff prior to contractual maturity are included in loan interest income in the period of payoff. Loan commitment fees received to originate or purchase a loan are deferred and, if the commitment is exercised, recognized over the life of the loan using the interest method as an adjustment of yield or, if the commitment expires unexercised, recognized as income upon expiration of the commitment. Loans held for investment are not adjusted to the lower of cost or estimated market value because it is management's intention, and the Company has the ability, to hold these loans to maturity.
Interest on loans is credited to income as earned. Interest receivablerecognized using the interest method and is only accrued only if deemed collectible. Loans onfor which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest is past due 90 days based on contractual terms of the loan or when, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to collection of principal and or interest. When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Interest income generally is not recognized on impairednonaccrual loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. Interest payments received on suchnonaccrual loans are applied as a reduction to the loan principal balance. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to all principal and interest.
A loan is considered to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (principal and interest) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company reviews loans for impairment when the loan is classified as substandard or worse, delinquent 90 days, determined by management to be collateral dependent, or when the borrower files bankruptcy or is granted concession which qualifies as a troubled debt restructure.restructuring. Measurement of impairment is based on the loan’s expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, measured by reference to an observable market value, if one exists, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is deemed collateral dependent. The Company selects the measurement method on a loan-by-loan basis except those loans deemed collateral dependent. All loansLoans for which impairment has been determined are generally charged-off at such time the loan is classified as a loss.
Allowance for Loan Losses—The Company maintains an ALLL at a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for known or inherent risksprobable incurred losses in the portfolio atas of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition date.condition. The Company has implemented and adheres to an internal assetloan review system and loss allowance methodology designed to provide for the detection of problem assetsloans and an adequateappropriate level of allowance to cover loan losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the loan loss allowanceALLL is based on an evaluation of the composition
of the portfolio, actual loss experience, industry charge-off experience on income property loans, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors in the area in which the Company’s lending and real estate activities are based. These factors may affect the borrowers’borrower’s ability to pay andas well as the value of the underlying collateral.collateral securing loans. The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to loans held for investment according to loan program type and loan credit classification. The loss factors are established based primarily upon the Bank’s historical loss experience and the industry charge-off experience, and are evaluated on a quarterly basis.
At December 31, 2018, the following portfolio segments have been identified. Segments are groupings of similar loans at a level, for which the Company has adopted systematic methods of documentation for determining its allowance for loan losses:
Commercial and industrial (including Franchise) - Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans are secured by business assets including inventory, receivables and machinery and equipment to businesses located generally in our primary market area. Loan types includes revolving lines or credit, term loans, seasonal loans and loans secured by liquid collateral such as cash deposits or marketable securities. Homeowners’ Association (“HOA”) credit facilities are included in C&I loans. We also issue letters of credit on behalf of our customers. Risk arises primarily due to the difference between expected and actual cash flows of the borrowers. In addition, the recoverability of the Company’s investment in these loans is also dependent on other factors primarily dictated by the type of collateral securing these loans. The fair value of the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate as market conditions change. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the recovery of the Company’s investment is dependent upon the borrower’s ability to collect amounts due from its customers.
Commercial real estate (including owner-occupied and nonowner occupied) - Commercial real estate (“CRE”) includes various type of loans which the Company holds real property as collateral. CRE lending activity is typically restricted to owner-occupied or nonowner-occupied. The primary risks of real estate loans include the borrower’s inability to pay, material decreases in the value of the real estate that is being held as collateral and significant increases in interest rates, which may make the real estate loan unprofitable to the borrower. Real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy.
SBA - We are approved to originate loans under the SBA’s Preferred Lenders Program (“PLP”). The PLP lending status affords us a higher level of delegated credit autonomy, translating to a significantly shorter turnaround time from application to funding, which is critical to our marketing efforts. We originate loans nationwide under the SBA’s 7(a), SBAExpress, International Trade and 504(a) loan programs, in conformity with SBA underwriting and documentation standards. SBA loans are similar to commercial business loans, but have additional credit enhancement provided by the U.S. Small Business Administration, for up to 85.00% of the loan amount for loans up to $150,000 and 75.00% of the loan amount for loans of more than $150,000. The Company originates SBA loans with the intent to sell the guaranteed portion into the secondary market on a quarterly basis.
Agribusiness and farmland - We originate loans to the agricultural community to fund seasonal production and longer term investments in land, buildings, equipment, crops and livestock. Agribusiness loans are for the purpose of financing agricultural production to finance crops and livestock. Farmland loans include all land known to be used or usable for agricultural purposes, such as crop and livestock production and is secured by the land and improvements thereon.
Multi-family - Loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate properties generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one-to-four family loans. Because payments on loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate properties are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of these loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy.
One-to-four family - Although we do not originate, through our bank acquisitions, we have acquired first lien single family loans, we occasionally purchase such loans to diversify our portfolio. The primary risks of one-to-four family loans include the borrower’s inability to pay, material decreases in the value of the real estate that is being held as collateral and significant increases in interest rates, which may make loans unprofitable.
Construction and land - We originate loans for the construction of one-to-four family and multi-family residences and CRE properties in our market area. We concentrate our efforts on single homes and small infill projects in established neighborhoods where there is not abundant land available for development. Construction loans are considered to have higher risks due to construction completion and timing risk, and the ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, government regulation of real property and the availability of long-term financing. Additionally, economic conditions may impact the Company’s ability to recover its investment in construction loans, as adverse economic conditions may negatively impact the real estate market, which could affect the borrower’s ability to complete and sell the project. Additionally, the fair value of the underlying collateral may fluctuate as market conditions change. We occasionally originate land loans located predominantly in California for the purpose of facilitating the ultimate construction of a home or commercial building. The primary risks include the borrower’s inability to pay and the inability of the Company to recover its investment due to a decline in the fair value of the underlying collateral.
Consumer loans - In addition to consumer loans acquired through our various bank acquisitions, we originate a limited number of consumer loans, generally for banking customers only, which consist primarily of home equity lines of credit, savings account secured loans and auto loans. Repayment of these loans is dependent on the borrower’s ability to pay and the fair value of the underlying collateral.
Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s ALLL.ALLL and loan review process. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management.
In the opinion of management, and in accordance with the credit loss allowance methodology, the present allowance is considered adequate to absorb estimable and probable incurred credit losses.losses as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. Additions and reductions to the allowance are reflected in current operations. Charge-offs torecorded against the allowance, for all loan segments, are made
when specific assetsloans are considered uncollectible or are transferred to other real estate owned and the fair value of the property is less than the loan’sCompany’s recorded investment.investment in the loan. Recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance.
Although management uses the best information available to make these estimates, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may beextend beyond the Company’s control.
Certain Acquired LoansPurchased Credit Impaired Loans. —As part of business acquisitions, the Bank acquires certain loans that have shown evidence of credit deterioration since origination.origination, referred to as purchased credit impaired loans. These acquired loans are recorded at the allocated fair value, such that thereno ALLL for purchase credit impaired (“PCI”) is no carryover of the seller’s allowanceestablished upon their acquisition. The Company has elected to account for loan losses. Such acquiredsuch loans are accounted for individually. The BankCompany estimates the amount and timing of expected cash flows for each purchased loan, and the expected cash flows in excess of the allocated fair value is recorded as interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield).and is referred to as the accretable yield. The excess of the loan’s contractual principal and interest over expected cash flows is not recorded (non-accretable difference).and is referred to as the non-accretable difference. Over the life of the loan, expected cash flows continue to be estimated. IfSubsequent decreases in expected future cash flows beyond the present value of expected cash flows is less thanas of the carrying amount,acquisition date are accounted for through a loss is recorded throughcharge to the allowanceprovision for loan losses. If subsequent reforecasts indicate there has been a probable and significant increase in the present valuelevel of expected future cash flows, is greater than the carrying amount, it is recognizedCompany first reduces any previously established

Other Real Estate Owned—Owned. The Company obtains an appraisal and/or market valuation on all other real estate owned at the time of possession. Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are recorded at fair value, less cost to sell, with any excess loan balance over the fair value of the property charged against the allowance for estimated loan losses.ALLL. The Company obtains an appraisal and/or market valuation on all other real estate owned at the time of possession. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management. Any subsequent declines in fair value losses are recorded as a charge to other real estate owned operationscurrent period earnings with a corresponding write-down to the asset. All legal fees and direct costs, including foreclosure and other related costs are expensed as incurred. Revenue and expenses from continued operations are included in other real estate owned operations in the consolidated statement of income.
Premises and Equipment—Equipment. Premises and equipment are statedcarried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from forty years for buildings, seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment, and three years for computer and telecommunication equipment. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the related leases.
The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets, such as premises and equipment, to ensure the carrying value has not been impaired. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase—Repurchase. The Company enters into sales of securities under agreement to repurchase. These agreements are treated as financing arrangements and, accordingly, the obligations to repurchase the securities sold are reflected as liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The securities collateralizing these agreements are delivered to several major national brokerage firms who arranged the transactions. The securities are reflected as assets in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The brokerage firms may loan such securities to other parties in the normal course of their operations and agree to return the identical security to the Company at the maturity of the agreements.
Bank Owned Life Insurance—Insurance. Bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) is accounted for using the cash surrender value method and is recorded at its realizable value. The changeChanges in the net assetcash surrender value is included in other assets and otherof BOLI are recorded as a component of noninterest income.
Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible—Intangible. Goodwill is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful lifelives are not amortized, but
tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate the necessity for such impairment tests to be performed. The Company has selected December 31 as the date to perform thetypically performs its annual impairment test.testing in the fourth quarter. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on ourrecorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.sheets.
Core deposit intangible assets arising from whole bank acquisitions are amortized on either an accelerated basis, reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset is consumed or otherwise used up, or on a straight-line amortization method over their estimated useful lives, which rangeranges from 6 to 1011.5 years.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments. Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Subordinated Debentures—Debentures. Long-term borrowings are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, which are recognized in interest expense using the interest method. Debt issuance costs are recognized in interest expense using the interest method over the life of the instrument.
Stock-Based Compensation. The Company issues various forms of stock-based compensation awards annually to officers and directors of the Company, including stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. The related compensation costs are recognized in the income statement based on the grant-date fair value over the period they are expected to vest, net of estimates for forfeitures. Estimates for forfeitures are based on the Company’s historical experience for each award type. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options. The Black-Scholes model uses certain assumptions to determine grant-date fair value such as: expected volatility, expected term of the option, expected risk-free rate of interest and expected dividend yield on the Company’s common stock. The market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant-date is used for restricted stock awards in determining the grant-date fair value for those awards.
Restricted stock units are granted to officers of the Company. Restricted stock units are stock-based compensation awards that when ultimately settled, result in the payment of cash or the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to the holder of the award. As with other stock-based compensation awards, compensation cost for restricted stock units is recognized over the period in which the awards are expected to vest. Certain of the Company’s restricted stock units contain vesting conditions which are based on pre-determined performance targets. The level at which the associated performance targets are achieved can impact the ultimate settlement of the award with the grantee and thus the level of compensation expense ultimately recognized. Certain of these awards contain a market condition whereby the vesting of the award is based on the Company’s performance, such as total shareholder return, relative to its peers over a specified period of time. The grant date fair value of market based restricted stock units is determined through the use of an independent third party which employs the use of a Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo simulation estimates grant date fair value using input assumptions similar to those used in the Black-Scholes model, however, it also incorporates into the grant date fair value calculation the probability that the performance targets will be achieved. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units that do not contain a market condition for vesting is based on the price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.
Income Taxes—Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns using the asset liability method. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates are considered. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are to be recognized for temporary differences that will result in deductible amounts in future years and for tax carryforwards if, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, there was2018, no valuation allowance was deemed necessary against the Company’s deferred tax asset.assets. At December 31, 2017, a valuation allowance of $380,000 was recorded against the capital loss carryover deferred tax asset, as the Company does not believe it will generate sufficient capital gain before the capital loss carryover expires.
A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company recognizes interest and / or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
Earnings per Share. Earnings per share of common stock is calculated on both a basic and diluted basis based on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding, excluding common shares in treasury. Basic earnings per share excludes potential dilution and is computed by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common
stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of common stock that then would share in earnings.
Comprehensive Income—Income. Comprehensive income is reported in addition to net income for all periods presented. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of other comprehensive income (loss) that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Unrealized gains and losses on the Company'sCompany’s available-for-sale investment securities are required to be included in other comprehensive income or loss. Total comprehensive income (loss) and the components of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the employees’ requisite service period (generally the vesting period). A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options and the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant is used for restricted stock awards.financial statements.
UseFair Value of EstimatesFinancial Instruments. —The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for loan losses, the fair value of stock-based compensation awards, the fairFair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value is an exit price, representing the statusamount that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of contingenciessignificant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Fair value measures are particularly subjectclassified according to change.a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which is based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value. U.S. GAAP requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect these estimates.
Reclassifications. Some items in prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 20152018
In June 2015,February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"(“ASU” or “Update”) No. 2015-10,2018-02, Technical CorrectionsIncome Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Improvements, Jobs Act of 2017 was signed into law, which among other things reduced the maximum federal corporate tax rate from 35% to clarify21%. This Update addresses concerns about the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), correct unintended applicationguidance in current U.S. GAAP that requires deferred tax liabilities and assets to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates with the effect included in income from continuing operations in the reporting period that includes the enactment date. That guidance is applicable even in situations in which the related income tax effects of items in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) were originally recognized in other comprehensive income (rather than in income from continuing operations). As a result of the adjustment of deferred taxes being required to be included in income from continuing operations, the tax effects of items within accumulated other comprehensive income (referred to as stranded tax effects for purposes of this Update) did not reflect the appropriate tax rate. This Update allows for an election to reclassify between retained earnings and make minor improvements toAOCI the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create significant administrative cost to most entities.impact of the federal income tax rate change. The amendments were effective upon issuance (June 12, 2015) for amendments that do not have transition guidance. Amendments thatin this Update are subject to transition guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments of this Update is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt in the first quarter of 2018. Accordingly, the Company recorded an increase to AOCI and a decrease to retained earnings of approximately $82,000 for stranded tax effects on available for sale investment securities in the first quarter of 2018.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business-inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a
“set”) that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. In addition, all the inputs and processes that a seller uses in operating a set are not required if market participants can acquire the set and continue to produce outputs. The amendments in this Update provide a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. If the screen is not met, the amendments in this Update (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The amendments provide a framework to assist entities in evaluating whether both an input and a substantive process are present. The framework includes two sets of criteria to consider that depend on whether a set has outputs. Although outputs are not required for a set to be a business, outputs generally are a key element of a business; therefore, the Company has developed more stringent criteria for sets without outputs. Lastly, the amendments in this Update narrow the definition of the term output so that the term is consistent with how outputs are described in Topic 606. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This Update requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015.2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This Update provides guidance on eight specific cash flow classification issues, which include: 1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; 2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or debt with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate; 3) contingent consideration payments made soon after a business combination; 4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; 5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; 6) distributions received from equity method investments; 7) beneficial interest in securitization transactions; and 8) separately identifiable cash flows and the application of the predominance principle. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an
interim period; however, an entity is required to adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company doesamendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The adoption of this standard did not expect these amendments to have a material effect on itsthe Company’s operating results or financial statements.condition.
In January 2014,2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, ASU 2018-04, Investments-Debt Securities (Topic 320) and Regulated Operations (Topic 980): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 2014-04, 117 and SEC Release No.33-9273 (SEC Update), ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesReceivables-Troubled Debt Restructuring By Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): “Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure." The objective of this guidance is to clarify when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. ASU No. 2014-04 states that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title. Changes made to the residential real estate property upon completioncurrent measurement model primarily affect the accounting for equity securities with readily determinable fair values, where changes in fair value are included in earnings instead of other comprehensive income. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities is largely unchanged. This Update also changes the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments including a foreclosure or (2)requirement that public business entities use exit price when measuring the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completionfair value of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-04 requires interim and annualfinancial instruments measured at amortized cost for disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. ASU No. 2014-04purposes. This Update is effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition. In accordance with the guidance, the Company measures the fair value of financial instruments reported at amortized cost on the statement of financial condition using the exit price notion. For further details, refer to footnote Fair Value of Financial Instruments within these consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606), ASU 2015-14 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of Effective Date, ASU 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), ASU 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-11 Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives ad Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting, ASU 2016-12 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients and ASU 2016-20 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606. With this ASU, the FASB amended existing guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, superseding and replacing nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, establishing a new control-based revenue recognition model, changing the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, providing new and more detailed guidance on specific topics and expanding and improving disclosures about revenue. In addition, this guidance specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer. The amendments are effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. 2017.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2014-042014-09 and its related amendments effective January 1, 2015. 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective transition method and determined the adoption was insignificant to the financial statements. Since the impact upon adoption of ASU 2014-09 and its related amendments was insignificant to the financial statements, a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings was not deemed necessary.
The adoption had no impact onCompany’s review of its various revenue streams indicated that approximately 99% of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-01, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323):"Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects." This Update permits reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial costrevenue is out of the investment in proportion to the tax creditsscope of ASU 2014-09 and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense. As the Company accounts for such investments using the cost method, the update had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860):"Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures." This Update aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as repurchase financings with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. Going forward, these transactions would all be accounted for as secured borrowings. The guidance eliminates sale accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and supersedes the guidance under which a transfer of a financial asset and a contemporaneous repurchase financing could be accounted for on a combined basis as a forward agreement, which has resulted in outcomes referred to as off-balance-sheet accounting. The Update requires a new disclosure for transactions economically similar to repurchase agreements in which the transferor retains substantiallyits related amendments, including all of the exposureCompany’s net interest income and a significant portion of non-interest income. For those revenue streams that are within the scope of ASU 2014-09 and its related amendments, the Company reviewed the associated customer contracts and agreements to determine the economic return onappropriate accounting for revenues under those contracts. The Company’s review did not identify any significant changes in the transferred financial assets throughouttiming of revenue recognition under those contracts within the termscope of ASU 2014-09 and its related amendments. Significant revenue streams that are within scope primarily relate to service charges and fees associated customer deposit accounts, as well as fees for various other services the Company provides its customers. As a result of the transaction. The Update also requires expanded disclosures about the nature of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The Update is effective for interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. All of the Company's repurchase agreements are typical in nature (i.e., not repurchase-to-maturity transactions or repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing) and are accounted for as secured borrowings. The Company adopted the provisionsimplementation of ASU No. 2014-11 effective January 1, 2015. The adoption had no impact on2014-09 and its related amendments, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.Company conducts a detailed review of its revenue streams at least annually, or more frequently if deemed necessary.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): “Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure”. This Update addresses classification of government-guaranteed mortgage loans, including those where guarantees are offered by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”). Although current accounting guidance stipulates proper measurement and classification in situations where a creditor obtains from a debtor, assets in satisfaction of a receivable (such as through foreclosure), current guidance does not specify how to measure and classify foreclosed mortgage loans that are government-guaranteed. Under the provisions of this
Update, a creditor would derecognize a mortgage loan that has been foreclosed upon, and recognize a separate receivable if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure, (2) At the time of fore0closure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim, (3) At the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. This Update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 for public business entities and after December 15, 2015 for non public business entities. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2014-14 effective January 1, 2015. The adoption had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective
On February 25,In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement.
The following disclosure requirements for public companies were removed from Topic 820:
The amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The policy for timing of transfers between levels.
The valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements.
The following disclosure requirements for public companies were modified in Topic 820:
The amendments clarify that the measurement of uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date.
The following disclosure requirements for public companies were added to Topic 820:
The changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period
The range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements
The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. In addition, an entity may early adopt any of the removed or modified disclosures immediately and delay adoption of the new disclosures until the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2018-13 on its financial statements and disclosures.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchase Callable Debt Securities. This Update amends guidance on the amortization period of premiums on certain purchased callable debt securities. The amendments shorten the amortization period of premiums on purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date. This Update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The effective date of ASU 2017-08 is for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting StandardsASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This Update replaces the incurred loss impairment model in current U.S. GAAP with a model that reflects current expected credit losses (“CECL”). The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Update requires that all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date be measured based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Update also requires enhanced disclosure, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures that provide additional information about significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. For public business entities, the Update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2016-13 on its financial statements and disclosures. The Company has formed a working group and a committee made up of members of finance, credit and risk management that are in the process of compiling and analyzing key data elements and implementing a software model that will meet the requirements of the new guidance. The Company has contracted with an industry expert to: (1) develop a new expected loss model with supportable assumptions, (2) identify data, reporting, and disclosure gaps, (3) provide quantitative modeling, and (4) assess, develop and document updates to accounting policies, new processes and controls. The magnitude of the adjustment and the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements cannot yet be reasonably estimated.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. The new standardThis Update is being issued to increase the transparency and comparability around lease obligations. Previously unrecorded off-balance sheet obligations will now be brought more prominently to light by presenting lease liabilities onrecorded in the face of the balance sheet,consolidated financial statements, accompanied by enhanced qualitative and quantitative disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. ThisThe Update is generally
effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2016-02 on its financial statements and disclosures.
On January 5, 2016,In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01,2018-10, Financial Instruments-Overall: RecognitionCodification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. Changes madeASU 2018-10 provides improvements related to ASU 2016-02 to increase stakeholders’ awareness of the amendments to Topic 842 and to expedite the improvements. The amendments affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional transition method, under which an entity initially applies the accounting guidance for leases under Topic 842 at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the current measurement model primarily affectopening balance of retained earnings in the accounting for equity securitiesperiod of adoption. Additionally, ASU 2018-11 allows an entity electing this additional transition method to continue to present comparative period financial statements in accordance with readily determinable fair values, where changesTopic 840 (current U.S. GAAP). ASU 2018-11 also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. The amendments in fair value will impact earnings instead of other comprehensive income. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities is largely unchanged. The Update also changes the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments including a requirement that public business entities use exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for disclosure purposes. This Update is generallythese updates become effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, includingannual periods as well as interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2016-01 on its financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). As a result of the deferral, the guidance in ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company for reportingannual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. 2018.
The Update modifiesCompany has elected to apply the transition provisions of Topic 842 using the modified retrospective transition method, electing to adopt the “package” of practical expedients in its transition to Topic 842, as specified in ASC 842-10-65. The results of this policy election are that the Company will reflect the provisions of Topic 842 in its consolidated financial statements for the first time as of and for the period ended March 31, 2019 (the period of adoption). The Company will measure and record liabilities to make lease payments as well as right of use assets in the period of adoption for leases that existed as of the transition date, and will continue to present all comparative periods under Topic 840. Under this elected transition method, the Company is not required to reassess the following as part of its Transition to Topic 842: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, (2) lease classifications for any existing or expired leases, and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases. Additionally, the Company has elected to apply the use of hindsight in its assessment of the term for its leases upon transition, which allows for consideration of the Company’s option to extend or terminate a lease.
The Company is currently in the process of finalizing its transition accounting under Topic 842 and anticipates in the first quarter of 2019 it will record a liability to make future lease payments of approximately $43 million and right of use assets of approximately $41 million, the difference being the net of accounting adjustments previously recorded under Topic 840 and Topic 805, as required by transition guidance companies use to recognize revenue from contracts with customers for transfers of goods or services and transfers of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The guidance also requires new qualitative and quantitative disclosures, including information about contract balances and performance obligations.in ASC 842-10-65. The Company does not expect these amendmentscurrently anticipate a cumulative effect adjustment to have a material effect onthe opening balance of retained earnings will be required as part of its financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputationtransition to Topic 842. The Company’s evaluation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The Update changes the balance sheet presentation for debt issuance costs.

The Company’s review indicates that all of its leases are classified as an asset. The Update is effectiveoperating leases or short-term leases. In accordance with the provisions of Topic 842, liabilities to make future lease payments and right of use assets will only be recorded for us in first quarter 2016 with retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40):Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This Update provides guidance about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The amendments require management to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principlesleases that are not considered short-term (leases with an original term of greater than 12 months). The Company will record expense for its leases on a straight-line basis in accordance with the requirements under Topic 842 for operating leases. The Company does not currently believe expense recognition for its operating leases (including short-term leases) under Topic 842 will differ significantly from that recorded under current lease accounting guidance. Right of use assets for operating leases will be amortized over the lease term and liabilities to make future lease payments will be accounted for using the interest method, both in U.S. auditing standards. This Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after Decemberaccordance with Topic 842.
15, 2016. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
2. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Other Regulatory Matters
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain capital in order to meet certain capital ratios to be considered adequately capitalized or well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. As of the most recent formal notification from the Federal Reserve, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized.” There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categorization.
NewFinal comprehensive regulatory capital rules for U.S. banking organizations pursuant to the capital framework of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, generally referred to as “Basel III”, became effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015, subject to phase-in periods for certain of their components and other provisions.provisions, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. The most significant of the provisions of the NewFinal Capital Rules, which applied to the Company and the Bank were as follows: the phase-out of trust preferred securities from Tier 1 capital, the higher risk-weighting of high volatility and past due real estate loans and the capital treatment of deferred tax assets and liabilities above certain thresholds. Under the Basel III rules, the Company must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer increased by 0.625% each year from 0.00% for 2015 to 2.50% in 2019. The capital conservation buffer for 2019 is 2.50% and for 2018 is 1.875%. The net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities is not included in computing regulatory capital.
As defined in applicable regulations and set forth in the table below, which excludes the capital conservation buffer, at December 31, 2015,2018 and 2017, the Company and the Bank continue to exceed the “well capitalized” standards:
standards as well as exceed the Basel III minimum capital ratios of the conservation buffer for each of the risk-based capital ratios:

Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale are recognized in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. At December 31, 2015,2018, the Company had accumulated other comprehensive loss of $7.9 million, or $5.6 million net of tax, compared to accumulated other comprehensive income of $646,000 or $415,000 net of tax, at December 31, 2017.
At December 31, 2018, mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) with an estimated par value of $61.0$20.3 million and a fair value of $62.5$20.9 million were pledged as collateral for the Bank’s three inverse putableHOA reverse repurchase agreements, which totaled $28.5$75,000. The average balance of repurchase agreement facilities was $15.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2018.
At December 31, 2018 and Homeowner's Association ("HOA") reverse repurchase agreements which totaled $19.6 million.2017, there were not holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. Government and its agencies, in an amount greater than 10% of shareholders’ equity.
The Company reviews individual securities classified as available-for-sale to determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. temporary, meaning: (i) those declines were due to interest rate changes and not to a deterioration in the creditworthiness of the issuers of those investment securities, and (ii) we have the ability to hold those securities until there is a recovery in their values or until their maturity.
If it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to contractual terms of the debt security not impaired at acquisition, an OTTIother-than-temporary impairment shall be considered to have occurred. If an OTTI occurs, the cost basis of the security will be written down to its fair value as the new cost basis and the write down accounted for as a realized loss. We reviewed all securities in a loss position as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and concluded their lossesThere were a result of the level of market interest rates and not a result of credit deterioration or the underlying issuers ability to repay. Therefore there were no securities with OTTI as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. The Company did not realize any OTTI recoveries or losses in 2015. The2018 and 2017. As of December 2016, the Company realized OTTI losses net of $29,000 in 2014 and $4,000 in 2013.

The Company originates SBA loans with the intent to sell the guaranteed portion of the loan prior to maturity and, therefore, designates them as held for sale. From time to time, the Company may purchase or sell other types of loans in order to manage concentrations, maximize interest income, change risk profiles, improve returns and generate liquidity.
Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. The unpaid principal balance of loans and participations serviced for others were $188 million at December 31, 2015 and $95.2 million at December 31, 2014.
Under applicable laws and regulations, the Bank may not make secured loans to one borrower in excess of 25% of unimpaired capital plus surplus and likewise in excess of 15% for unsecured loans. These loans-to-one-borrower limitations result in a dollar limitation of $94.1 million for secured loans and $56.5 million for unsecured loans at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015, the Bank’s largest aggregate outstanding balance of loans-to-one borrower was $30.3 million of secured credit.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s loan portfolio was collateralized by various forms of real estate and business assets located principally in California.California, as well as in certain markets in the states of Arizona, Nevada, and Washington where we also have depository offices. The Company’s loan portfolio contains concentrations of credit in commercial non-owner occupied real estate, multi-family real estate and commercial owner occupied business loans. The Company maintains policies approved by the Boardboard of Directorsdirectors that address these concentrations and continues to diversify its loan portfolio through loan originations and purchases and sales of loans to meet approved
concentration levels. While management believes that the collateral presently securing these loans is adequate, there can be no assurances that further significant deterioration in the California real estate market and economy would not expose the Company to significantly greater credit risk.
Loans Serviced for Others
The Company generally retains the servicing rights of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans sold, for which the Company records a servicing asset at fair value and subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or market value. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the servicing asset total $8.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively, and was included in other assets. Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to the carrying amount. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance, to the extent the fair value is less than the carrying amount. At December 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company determined that no valuation allowance was necessary.
Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. The unpaid principal balance of loans and participations serviced for others were $635.3 million December 31, 2018 and $634.5 million at December 31, 2017.

The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement or it is determined that the likelihood of the Company receiving all scheduled payments, including interest, when due is remote. The Company has no commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans have been impaired.
The Company reviews loans for impairment when the loan is classified as substandard or worse, delinquent 90 days, determined by management to be collateral dependent, or when the borrower files bankruptcy or is granted a troubled debt restructure. Measurement of impairment is based on the loan’s expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, measured by reference to an observable market value, if one exists, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is deemed collateral dependent. Loans are generally charged-off at the time that the loan is classified as a loss. Valuation allowances are determined on a loan-by-loan basis or by aggregating loans with similar risk characteristics.
We sometimes modify or restructure loans when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties by making a concession to the borrower in the form of changes in the amortization terms, reductions in the interest rates, the acceptance of interest only payments and, in limited cases, concessions to the outstanding loan balances. These loans are classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and considered impaired loans. TDRs are loans modified for the purpose of alleviating temporary impairments to the borrower’s financial condition or cash flows. A workout plan between us and the borrower is designed to provide a bridge for borrower cash flow shortfalls in the near term. A TDR loan may be returned to accrual status when the loan is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual restructured terms for a time frame of at least six months, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual restructured principal and interest in no longer in doubt. These loans, while no longer considered a TDR, are still considered impaired loans. TheAt December 31, 2018, the Company had no troubled debt restructuresrecorded investment in a TDR compared to $97,000 at December 31, 2015.2017.
When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all accrued interest is reversed from current period earnings. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are generally applied as a reduction to the loan principal balance. If the likelihood of further loss is remote, the Company will recognize interest on a cash basis only. Loans may be returned to accruing status if the Company believes that all remaining principal and interest is fully collectible and there has been at least six months of sustained repayment performance since the loan was placed on nonaccrual.
The Company does not accrue interest on loans 90 days or more past due or when, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to the collection of interest. The Company had impaired loans on nonaccrual status of $4.0$4.9 million, $1.4$3.3 million and $2.3$1.1 million at December 31, 2015, 20142018, 2017 and 2013,2016, respectively. If such loans had been performing in accordance with their original terms, the Company would have recorded additional loan interest income of $279,000 in 2015, $151,000 in 2014, and $311,000 in 2013. The Company did not record income from the receipt of cash payments related to nonaccruing loans during the years ended December 31, 2015, 20142018, 2017 and 2013.2016. The Company had no$213,000 of loans 90 daydays or more past due and still accruing at December 31, 20152018, all of which were PCI loans. Income recognition for PCI loans is accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30 Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The Company had $1.8 million in loans 90 days or 2014.more past due and still accruing at December 31, 2017.
Credit Quality and Credit Risk
The Company’s credit quality is maintained and credit risk managed in two distinct areas. The first is the loan origination process, wherein the Bank underwrites credit quality and chooses which risks it is willing to accept. The second is in the ongoing oversight of the loan portfolio, where existing credit risk is measured and monitored, and where performance issues are dealt with in a timely and comprehensive fashion.
The Company maintains a comprehensive credit policy, which sets forth minimum and maximum tolerances for key elements of loan risk. The policy identifies and sets forth specific guidelines for analyzing each of the loan products the Company offers from both an individual and portfolio wide basis. The credit policy is reviewed no less than annually by the Board of Directors. SeasonedBank Board. The Bank’s seasoned underwriters and portfolio managers ensure all key risk factors are analyzed with most loan underwriting including a comprehensive global cash flow analysis. The credit approval
process mandates multiple-signature approval by either the management or Board credit committee for every loan which requires any subjective credit analysis.
Credit risk is monitored and managed within the loan portfolio by the Company’s Portfolio Management departmentportfolio managers based on a comprehensive credit and investmentportfolio review policy. This policy requires a program of financial data collection and analysis, comprehensive loan reviews, property and/or business inspections and monitoring of portfolio concentrations and trends. The Portfolio Management departmentportfolio managers also monitorsmonitor asset-based lines of credit, loan covenants and other conditions associated with the Company’s business loans as a means to help ensure that the protections built into the loan approvals serve as the early warning and risk mitigation mechanisms.identify potential credit risk. Individual loans, excluding the homogeneous loan portfolio, are reviewed at least biennially, orevery two years, and in most cases, more frequently, if deemed necessary, and includesoften including the assignment of a risk grade.
Risk grades are based on a six-grade Pass scale, P1 - P5 and Watch; along with Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss classifications, as such classifications are defined by the federal banking regulatory agencies. The assignment of risk grades allows the Company to, among other things, identify the risk associated with each credit in the portfolio, and to provide a basis for estimating creditprobable incurred losses inherent in the portfolio. Risk grades are reviewed regularly by the Company’s Credit and InvestmentPortfolio Review committee, and are scrutinizedreviewed annually by annualan independent loan reviews performed by a third-party, as well as by regulatory agencies during scheduled examinations.
The following provides brief definitions for risk grades assigned to loans in the portfolio:
Pass classifications represent assets with a level of credit quality, which contain no well-defined deficiency or weakness.
Special Mention assets do not currently expose the Bank to a sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the adverse categories, but possess correctable deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention.
Substandard assets are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. These assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful credits have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard credits, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss assets are those that are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted. Amounts classified as loss are promptly charged off.
The Portfolio Management departmentportfolio managers also managesmanage loan performance risks, handling collections, workouts, bankruptcies and foreclosures. TheseLoan performance risks are controlledmitigated by moving quicklyour portfolio managers acting promptly and assertively to address problem credits when problemsthey are identified. Collection efforts are immediatecommenced immediately upon non-payment, and the portfolio managers seek to promptly determine right away the appropriate steps to minimize the Company’s risk of loss. When foreclosure will maximize the Company’s recovery for a non-performing loan, the portfolio managers will prosecutetake appropriate action to initiate the foreclosure process, including any associated judicial legal actions. When appropriate, the Company’s in-house counsel or outside legal advisors are consulted to ensure that legal risks are appropriately addressed in handling loan performance issues.process.
When a loan is graded as watchspecial mention or worse,substandard or doubtful, the Company obtains an updated valuation of the underlying collateral. If the credit in question is also identified as impaired, a valuation allowance, if necessary, is established against such loan or a loss is recognized by a charge to the ALLLallowance for loan losses if management believes that the full amount of the Company’s recorded investment in the loan is no longer collectable. The Company typically continues to obtain or confirm updated valuations of underlying collateral for watch, special mention and classified loans on an annual or biennialbiannual basis in order to have the most current indication of fair value. Once a loan is identified as impaired, an analysis of the underlying collateral is performed at least quarterly, and corresponding changes in any related valuation allowance are made or balances deemed to be fully uncollectable are charged-off.
The following tables stratify the loan portfolio by the Company’s internal risk grading system as well as certain other information concerning the credit quality of the loan portfolio, including loans held for sale, as of the periods indicated:

Among other changes, the Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. The Company performed an initial assessment and reasonably estimated the effects of the Tax Act on its deferred tax amounts to be approximately $5.6 million, which was recorded as a charge to income tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2017, in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”). As required by SAB 118, the Company continued to reassess and refine the effects of the Tax Act on its deferred tax amounts during 2018. As a result, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, there was no2018. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has completed the accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Act.
The Company accounts for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon temporary differences between the amounts for financial reporting purposes and tax basis of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the existence of any cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. This analysis is updated quarterly and adjusted as necessary. Based on the analysis, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not required as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2018. As of December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $380,000 against the Company’scapital loss carryover deferred tax asset.asset, as the Company does not believe it will generate sufficient capital gain before the capital loss carryover expires.

17. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of originating loans or providing funds under existing lines or letters of credit. These commitments are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and may require payment of a fee. Since many commitments are expected to expire, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.
The Company'sCompany’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. The Company controls credit risk of its commitments to fund loans through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company evaluates each customer for creditworthiness.
The Company receives collateral to support commitments when deemed necessary. The most significant categories of collateral include real estate properties underlying mortgage loans, liens on personal property and cash on deposit with the Bank.
The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to provide for commitments related to loans associated with undisbursed loan funds and unused lines of credit. The allowance for these commitments was $603,000$4.6 million at December 31, 20152018 and $397,000$1.9 million at December 31, 2014.2017. The change in the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments during the year ended December 31, 2018 was attributable to $2.6 million in fair value adjustments associated unfunded loan commitments and unused lines of credit assumed through the acquisitions of Grandpoint and HEOP. These fair value adjustments were made within the one-year measurement period associated with each acquisition and are attributed to the fair value of unfunded loan commitments and unused lines of credit assumed at the acquisition date.
The Company’s commitments to extend credit at December 31, 20152018 were $415 million$1.8 billion and $355.0 million$1.2 billion at December 31, 2014.2017. The 20152018 balance is primarily composed of $200 million$1.1 billion of undisbursed commitments for C&I loans.
18. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of an asset or liability is the exchange price that would be received to sell that asset or paid to transfer that liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability. In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach, and/or the cost approach. Such valuation techniques are consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC Topic 825 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including both those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, and for estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities not recorded at fair value, are discussed below.
In accordance with accounting guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, volatilities, etc.) or model-based valuation techniques where all significant assumptions are observable, either directly or indirectly, in the market.
Level 3 - Valuation is generated from model-based techniques where one or more significant inputs are not observable, either directly or indirectly, in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques may include use of matrix pricing, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair values presented. Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent limitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction at December 31, 20152018 and December 31, 2014.2017.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management maximizes the use of observable inputs and attempts to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value measurements. Estimated fair values are disclosed for financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. These estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market data and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument for sale at one time, nor do they attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business related to the instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains
and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates.
The following is a description of both the general and specific valuation methodologies used for certain instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of these instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Cash and due from banksInvestment securities. – The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair value due to the liquidity of these instruments.
Securities Available for Sale – AFSInvestment securities are generally valued based upon quotes obtained from an independent third-party pricing service, which uses evaluated pricing applications and model processes. Observable market inputs, such as, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data are considered as part of the evaluation. The inputs are related directly to the security being evaluated, or indirectly to a similarly situated security. Market assumptions and market data are utilized in the valuation models. The Company reviews the market prices provided by the third-party pricing service for reasonableness based on the Company’s understanding of the market place and credit issues related to the securities. The Company has not made any adjustments to the market quotes provided by them and, accordingly, the Company categorized its investment portfolio within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
FHLB, FRB,Impaired Loans and Other StockReal Estate Owned. – The carrying value approximatesA loan is considered impaired when it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral or the discounted expected future cash flows. The Company measures impairment on all non-accrual loans for which it has reduced the principal balance to the value of the underlying collateral less the anticipated selling cost. As such, the Company records impaired loans as Level 3. At December 31, 2018, substantially all the Company’s impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of their underlying collateral based upon the redemption provisionsmost recent appraisal available to management and has recorded a specific reserve on one loan in the amount of the stock.$584,000 with a principal balance of $1.0 million.
Loans Held for Investment – The fair value of loans, other than loans on nonaccrual status, was estimated by discounting the remaining contractual cash flows using the estimated current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit risk characteristics and for the same remaining maturities, reduced by deferred net loan origination fees and the allocable portion of the allowance for loan losses. Accordingly, in determining the estimated current rate for discounting purposes, no adjustment has been made for any change in borrowers’ credit risks since the origination of such loans. Rather, the allocable portion of the allowance for loan losses is considered to provide for such changes in estimating fair value. As a result, this fair value is not necessarily the value which would be derived using an exit price. These loans are included within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loans Held for Sale –The fair values of LHFS are based on quoted market prices, where available, or are determined by discounting estimated cash flows using interest rates approximating the Corporation’s current origination rates for similar loans adjusted to reflect the inherent credit risk. The borrower-specific credit risk is embedded within the quoted market prices or is implied by considering loan performance when selecting comparables.
Impaired loans and OREO– Impaired loans and OREO assets are recorded at the fair value less estimated costs to sell at the time of foreclosure. The fair value of impaired loans and OREO assets are generallyother real estate owned were determined using Level 3 assumptions, and represents impaired loan and other real estate owned balances for which a specific reserve has been established or on which a write down has been taken. Generally, the Company obtains third party appraisals (or property valuations) and/or collateral audits in conjunction with internal analysis based on recenthistorical experience on its impaired loans and other real estate appraisals adjustedowned to determine fair value. In determining the net realizable value of the underlying collateral for estimatedimpaired loans, the Company will then discount the valuation to cover both market price fluctuations and selling costs. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales andcosts the income approach. Adjustments are routinely madeCompany expected would be incurred in the appraisal process byevent of foreclosure. In addition to the appraisers to adjust for differences betweendiscounts taken, the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and resultCompany’s calculation of net realizable value considered any other senior liens in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.
Deposit Accounts and Short-term Borrowings — The amounts payable to depositors for demand, savings, and money market accounts, and short-term borrowings are considered to approximate fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities using a discounted cash flow calculation. Interest-bearing deposits and borrowings are included within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Term FHLB Advances and Other Long-term Borrowings— The fair value of long term borrowings is determined using rates currently available for similar borrowings with similar credit risk and for the remaining maturities and are classified as Level 2.
Subordinated Debentures – The fair value of subordinated debentures is estimated by discounting the balance by the current three-month LIBOR rate plus the current market spread. The fair value is determined basedplace on the maturity date as the Company does not currently have intentions to call the debenture and is classified as Level 2.
Estimated fair values are disclosed for financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. These estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market data and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument for sale at one time, nor do they attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business related to the instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates.underlying collateral.
The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.the dates indicated, representing an exit price.

(1) The estimated fair value of loans held for investment, net for December 31, 2017 is not based on an exit price assumption. |
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral or the discounted expected future cash flows. The Company measures impairment on all non-accrual loans for which it has reduced the principal balance to the value of the underlying collateral less the anticipated selling cost. As such, the Company records impaired loans as non-recurring Level 3 when the fair value of the underlying collateral is based on an observable market price or current appraised value. When current market prices are not available or the Company determines that the fair value of the underlying collateral is further impaired below appraised values, the Company records impaired loans as Level 3. At December 31, 2015,2018, substantially all the Company’s impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of their underlying collateral based upon the most recent appraisal available to management.
The measures of fair value on a non-recurring basis are immaterial at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The following fair value hierarchy tables present information about the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

19. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share of common stock is calculated on both a basic and diluted basis based on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding, excluding common shares in treasury. Basic earnings per share excludes potential dilution and is computed by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company has no outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends that would be considered participating securities for the basic calculation. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of common stock that then would share in earnings.earnings and excludes common shares in treasury. Stock options exercisable for shares of common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if they are anti-dilutive due to their exercise price exceeding the average market price during the period.
The impact of stock options, which are anti-dilutive are excluded from the computations of diluted earnings per share. The dilutive impact of these securities could be included in future computations of diluted earnings per share if the market price of the common stock increases. There are no anti-dilutive stock options at December 31, 2018. The weighted average number of stock options excluded was for 17,524 for December 31, 2017 and 82,760 for December 31, 2016.

20. Derivative Instruments
From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with certain borrowers to assist them in mitigating their interest rate risk exposure associated with the loans they have with the Company. At the same time, the Company enters into identical interest rate swap agreements with another financial institution to mitigate the Company’s interest rate risk exposure associated with the swap agreements it enters into with its borrowers. At December 31, 2018, the Company had swaps with matched terms with an aggregate notional amount
of $57.5 million and a fair value of $1.7 million. The fair values of these swaps are recorded as components of other assets and other liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of these swaps, which occur due to changes in interest rates, are recorded in the Company’s income statement as a component of noninterest income. Since the terms of the swap agreements between the Company and its borrowers have been matched with the terms of swap agreements with another financial institution, the adjustments for the change in their fair value offset each other and net to zero in non-interest income.
Although changes in the fair value of swap agreements between the Company and borrowers and the Company and other financial institutions offset each other, changes in the credit risk of these counterparties may result in a difference in the fair value of these swap agreements. Offsetting swap agreements the Company has with other financial institutions are collateralized with cash, and swap agreements with borrowers are secured by the collateral arrangements for the underlying loans these borrowers have with the Company. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, there were no losses recorded on swap agreements, attributable to the change in credit risk associated with a counterparty. All interest rate swap agreements entered into by the Company as of December 31, 2018 are not designated as hedging instruments.
The following tables summarize the Company’s derivative instruments, included in “other assets” and “other liabilities” in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company’s derivative instruments were acquired as part of the 2017 HEOP acquisition, and the Company did not have any at December 31, 2016:

21. Balance Sheet Offsetting
Derivative financial instruments may be eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheets, such as those subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or a similar agreement. Under these agreements, the Company has the right to net settle multiple contracts with the same counterparty. The Company offers an interest rate swap product to qualified customers, which are then paired with derivative contracts the Company enters into with a counterparty bank. While derivative contracts entered into with counterparty banks may be subject to enforceable master netting agreements, derivative contracts with customers may not be subject to enforceable master netting arrangements.
Financial instruments that are eligible for offset in the consolidated statements of financial condition as of December 31, 2018 are presented in the table below:

22. Revenue Recognition
The Company earns revenue from a variety of sources. The Company’s principal source of revenue is interest income on loans, investment securities and other interest earning assets, while the remainder of the Company’s revenue is earned from a variety of fees, service charges, gains and losses, and other income, all of which are classified as noninterest income. Revenue from interest on loans and investment securities is accounted for on an accrual basis using the interest method, while revenue from other sources is accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP as well as ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue streams within the scope of and accounted for under ASC 606 include: service charges and fees on deposit accounts, debit card interchange fees, fees from other services the Company provides its customers and gains and losses from the sale of other real estate owned and property, premises and equipment. ASC 606 requires revenue to be recognized when the Company satisfies the related performance obligations by transferring to the customer a good or service. The recognition of revenue under ASC 606 requires the Company to first identify the contract with the customer, identify the associated performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and finally recognize revenue when the performance obligations have been satisfied and the good or service has been transferred. The majority of the Company’s contracts with customers associated with revenue streams that are within the scope of ASC 606 are considered short-term in nature and can be canceled at any time by the customer or the Company without penalty, such as a deposit account agreement. These revenue streams are included in non-interest income.
The following table provides a summary of the Company’s revenue streams, including those that are within the scope of ASC 606 and those that are accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP:

(1) Revenues from contracts with customers accounted for under ASC 606.
(2) Revenues not within the scope of ASC 606 and accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP requirements.
The following provides information concerning the major components of the Company’s revenue:
Interest Income. Interest income is comprised of interest on loans, investment securities and other interest-earning assets. Interest is recognized using the interest method, which reflects the contractual yield on loans and coupon yield for investment securities. These yields are adjusted for purchase discounts, premiums and net deferred loan origination fees for newly originated loans.
Loan Servicing Fees. Loan servicing fees generally consist of fees related to servicing of loans for others, as well as the net impact of related serving asset amortization. ASC 606 stipulates that income streams generated through the transfer and servicing of financial instruments shall be accounted for under ASC 860 - Transfers and Servicing and is therefore excluded from the scope of ASC 606.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts and Other Service Fee Income. Service charges on deposit accounts and other service fee income consists of periodic service charges on deposit accounts and transaction based fees such as those related to overdrafts, ATM charges and wire transfer fees. The majority of these revenues are accounted for under ASC 606. Performance obligations for periodic service charges on deposit accounts are typically short-term in nature and are generally satisfied on a monthly basis, while performance obligations for other transaction based fees are typically satisfied at a point in time (which may consist of only a few moments to perform the service or transaction) with no further obligations on behalf of the Company to the customer. Periodic service charges are generally collected monthly directly from the customer’s deposit account, and at the end of a
statement cycle, while transaction based service charges are typically collected at the time of or soon after the service is performed.
Debit Card Interchange Income. Debit card interchange fee income consists of transaction processing fees associated with customer debit card transactions processed through a payment network and are accounted for under ASC 606. These fees are earned each time a request for payment is originated by a customer debit cardholder at a merchant. In these transactions, the Company transfers funds from the debit cardholder’s account to a merchant through a payment network at the request of the debit cardholder by way of the debit card transaction. The related performance obligations are generally satisfied when the transfer of funds is complete, which is generally a point in time when the debit card transaction is processed. Debit card interchange fees are typically received and recorded as revenue on a daily basis.
Earnings on Bank Owned Life Insurance. Earnings on BOLI relate to the periodic increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI policies on certain key employees of the Company for which the Company is the owner and beneficiary of the related policies. This revenue stream is excluded from the scope of ASC 606, and is accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP provisions (ASC 325-30).
Gains and (Losses) from Sales of Loans and Investment Securities. ASC 606 stipulates that gains and (losses) from the periodic sale of loans and investment securities are excluded from ASC 606 and are accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP provisions.
Other Income. Other income generally consists of recoveries on acquired loans, which were fully charged off and had no book value prior to their acquisition, as well as other miscellaneous loan fees, and rental income from various subleases. These revenue streams are excluded from the scope of ASC 606 and are accounted for under other applicable U.S. GAAP provisions. Other income also consists of other miscellaneous fees, which are accounted for under ASC 606; however, much like service charges on deposit accounts, these fees have performance obligations that are very short-term in nature and are typically satisfied at a point in time. Revenue is typically recorded at the time these fees are collected, which is generally upon the completion the related transaction or service provided.
Other revenue streams that may be applicable to the Company include gains and losses from the sale of non-financial assets such as other real estate owned and property premises and equipment. The Company accounts for these revenue streams in accordance with ASC 610-20, which requires the Company to look to guidance in ASC 606 in the application of certain measurement and recognition concepts. The Company records gains and losses on the sale of non-financial assets when control of the asset has been surrendered to the buyer, which generally occurs at a specific point in time.
Practical Expedient. The Company also employs a practical expedient with respect to contract acquisition costs, which are generally capitalized and amortized into expense. These costs relate to expenses incurred directly attributable to the efforts to obtain a contract. The practical expedient allows the Company to immediately recognize contract acquisition costs in current period earnings when these costs would have been amortized over a period of one year or less.
At December 31, 2018 the Company did not have any material contract assets or liabilities in its consolidated financial statements related to revenue streams within the scope of ASC 606, and there were no material changes in those balances during the reporting period.

The Company accounted for these transactions under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires purchased assets and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition.
The Company determinedloan portfolios of Grandpoint, PLZZ, HEOP and SCAF were recorded at fair value at the date of each acquisition. The valuation of loan portfolios of Grandpoint, PLZZ, HEOP and SCAF’s were performed as of the acquisition dates to assess their fair values. The loan portfolios were split into two groups: loan with credit deterioration and loans without credit deterioration, and then segmented further by loan type. The fair value was calculated on an individual loan basis using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate utilized was based on a weighted average cost of capital, considering the cost of equity and cost of debt. Also factored into the fair value of the core deposit intangible, securitiesestimates were loss rates, recovery period and deposits with the assistance of third-party valuations. The fair value of other real estate owned (“OREO”) wasprepayment rates based on recent appraisals of the properties.industry standards.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, there was no carryover of the allowance for loan losses that had been previously recorded by FAB, SDTB, IFCGrandpoint, PLZZ, HEOP and IDPKSCAF.
The Company also determined the fair value of the core deposit intangible, securities and deposits with the assistance of third-party valuations and determined the fair value of OREO from recent appraisals of the properties less estimated costs to sell. Since the fair value of intangible assets is calculated as if they were stand-alone assets, the presumption is that a hypothetical buyer of the intangible asset would be able to take advantage of potential after tax benefits resulting from the asset purchase.
The core deposit intangible on non-maturing deposit represents future benefits arising from savings on source of funding and was determined by evaluating the underlying characteristics of the deposit relationships, including customer attrition, deposit interest rates, service charge income, overhead expense and costs of alternative funding. The value of the after tax savings on cost of fund is the present value over a estimated fifty-year horizon, using the discount rate applicable to the asset.
In determining the fair value of certificates of deposit, a discounted cash flow analysis was used, which involved present valuing the contractual payments over the remaining life of the certificates of deposit at market-based interest rates
