Note 1.  Basis of Presentation
 
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Central Valley Community Bancorp and subsidiary have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). These interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Central Valley Community Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary Central Valley Community Bank (the Bank) (collectively, the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 20192020 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2020,2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the six-month interim periods ended June 30, 20202021 and 20192020 have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The preparation of these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     Management has determined that since all of the banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch of the Bank, all branches are located within the same economic environment, and management does not allocate resources based on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it is appropriate to aggregate the Bank branches and report them as a single operating segment. No customer accounts for more than 10 percent of revenues for the Company or the Bank.

Risks and Uncertainties

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 continues to aggressively spread globally and has spread to over 216 countries, including all 50 states in the United States. A prolonged COVID-19 outbreak, or any other epidemic that harms the global economy, U.S. economy, or the economies in which we operate, could adversely affect our operations. While the spread of COVID-19 has minimally affected our operations as of June 30, 2020, it has caused significant economic disruption throughout the United States as state and local governments issued “shelter at home” orders along with the closing of non-essential businesses. The potential financial impact is unknown at this time. However, if these actions are sustained, it may adversely affect several industries within our geographic footprint and impair the ability of our customers to fulfill their contractual obligations to the Company. This could cause the Company to experience a material adverse effect on our business operations, asset valuations, financial condition, and results of operations. Material adverse impacts may include all or a combination of valuation impairments on our intangible assets, investments, loans, or deferred tax assets.

Impact of New Financial Accounting Standards:

FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13 - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Subtopic 326): Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, commonly referred to as “CECL,” was issued June 2016. The provisions of the update eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold under current GAAP which requires reserves to be based on an incurred loss methodology. Under CECL, reserves required for financial assets measured at amortized cost will reflect an organization’s estimate of all expected credit losses over the contractual term of the financial asset and thereby require the use of reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate future credit losses. Because CECL encompasses all financial assets carried at amortized cost, the requirement that reserves be established based on an organization’s reasonable and supportable estimate of expected credit losses extends to held to maturity (“HTM”) debt securities. Under the provisions of the update, credit losses recognized on available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities will be presented as an allowance as opposed to a write-down. In addition, CECL will modify the accounting for purchased loans, with credit deterioration since origination, so that reserves are established at the date of acquisition for purchased loans. Under current GAAP a purchased loan’s contractual balance is adjusted to fair value through a credit discount and no reserve is recorded on the purchased loan upon acquisition. Since under CECL, reserves will be established for purchased loans at the time of acquisition, the accounting for purchased loans is made more comparable to the accounting for originated loans. Finally, increased disclosure requirements under CECL require organizations to present the currently required credit quality disclosures disaggregated by the year of origination or vintage. The FASB expects that the evaluation of underwriting standards and credit quality trends by financial statement users will be enhanced with the additional vintage disclosures. On August 15, 2019, the FASB issued a proposed Accounting Standards Update (ASU), “Financial
10

Table of Contents
Instruments -Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” that would provide private entities and certain small public companies additional time to implement the standards on CECL, leases, and hedging. The final ASU extends the effective date for SEC filers, such as the Company, that are classified as smaller reporting companies to January 1, 2023.

    The Company has formed an internal task force that is responsible for oversight of the Company’s implementation strategy for compliance with provisions of the new standard. The Company has also established a project management governance process to manage the implementation across affected disciplines. An external provider specializing in community bank loss driver and CECL reserving model design as well as other related consulting services has been retained, and we have begun to evaluate potential CECL modeling alternatives. As part of this process, the Company has determined potential loan pool segmentation and sub-segmentation under CECL, as well as begun to evaluate the key economic loss drivers for each segment. Further, the Company has begun developing internal controls around the CECL process, data, calculations and implementation. The Company presently plans to generate and evaluate model scenarios under CECL in tandem with its current reserving processes for interim and annual reporting periods during 20202022 due to the fact the Company elected to delay

implementation of the CECL process as allowed by FASB. While the Company is currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting this new guidance, management expects the impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the composition and quality of the Company’s loans as well as the economic conditions as of the date of adoption. The Company also anticipates significant changes to the processes and procedures for calculating the reserve for credit losses and continues to evaluate the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-13 - Fair Value Measurement (Subtopic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, was issued August 2018. The primary focus of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the effectiveness of the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The changes affect all companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. In general, the amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

    FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Subtopic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, was issued March 2020. This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is in the process of evaluating the provisions of this ASU and its effects on our consolidated financial statements. The Company believes the adoption of this guidance on activities subsequent to June 30, 2021 through December 31, 2022 will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

    In April 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (“the agencies”) issued a revised interagency statement encouraging financial institutions to work with customers affected by COVID-19 and providing additional information regarding loan modifications. The revised interagency statement clarifies the interaction between the interagency statement issued on March 22, 2020 and the temporary relief provided by Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. Section 4013 allows financial institutions to suspend the requirements to classify certain loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). The revised statement also provides supervisory interpretations on past due and nonaccrual regulatory reporting of loan modification programs and regulatory capital. This interagency guidance is expected to reduce the number of TDRs that will be reported in future periods; however, the amount is indeterminable and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.


Note 2.  Fair Value Measurements
 
Fair Value Hierarchy
 
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In accordance with applicable guidance, the Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value inThere are three levels based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptionsinputs that may be used to determinemeasure fair value.  Valuations within these levels are based upon:
11

Table of Contents
values:

Level 1 — Quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets that the Companyentity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 Quoted—Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets,assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptionsactive; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Model-based techniques Significant unobservable inputs that use at least one significant assumption not observable inreflect an entity’s own assumptions about the market.  These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use onin pricing thean asset or liability.  Valuation techniques include management judgment and estimation which may be significant.

Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, we report the transfer at the beginning of the reporting period. The estimated carrying and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):

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.
These estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market data and information about the financial instruments.  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.
    The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits in other banks, and Federal funds sold approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

(b) Investment Securities — Investment securities in Level 1 are mutual funds and fair values are based on quoted market prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Fair values for investment securities classified in Level 2 are based on quoted market prices for similar securities in active markets. For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators.

(c) Loans — Fair values of loans are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Purchased credit
11


impaired (PCI) loans are measured at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition. Carrying value is calculated as the present value of expected cash flows and approximates fair value and included in Level 3. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are initially valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses. For collateral dependent real estate loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. The estimated fair values of financial instruments disclosed above follow the guidance in ASU 2016-01 which prescribes an “exit price” approach in estimating and disclosing fair value of financial instruments incorporating discounts for credit, liquidity, and marketability factors.

(d) FHLB Stock — It is not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

(e) Deposits — Fair value of demand deposit, savings, and money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair value for fixed and variable rate certificates of deposit are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates offered at each reporting date by the Company for certificates with similar remaining maturities resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(f) Short-Term Borrowings — The fair values of the Company’s federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, are based on the market rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(g) Other BorrowingsSubordinated Debentures The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

The fair values of the Company’s Subordinated Debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 3 classification.

(h)(g) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable — The fair value of accrued interest receivable and payable is based on the fair value hierarchy of the related asset or liability.

Table of Contents
(i)(h) Off-Balance Sheet Instruments — Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not considered significant for financial reporting purposes.

    Securities in Level 1 are mutual funds and fair values are based on quoted market prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.  Fair values for available-for-sale debt securities in Level 2 are based on quoted market prices for similar securities in active markets. For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators.
    Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities or total earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, no transfers between levels occurred.
There were no Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at or during the six months ended June 30, 2020.2021. Also there were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2020.2021.

    At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses. For collateral dependent real estate loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. The fair value of impaired loans is based on the fair value of the collateral. Impaired loans were determined to be collateral dependent and categorized as Level 3 due to ongoing real estate market conditions resulting in inactive market data, which in turn required the use of unobservable inputs and assumptions in fair value measurements. Impaired loans evaluated under the discounted cash flow method are excluded from the table above. The discounted cash flow methods as prescribed by ASC Topic 310 is not a fair value measurement since the discount rate utilized is the loan’s effective interest rate which is not a market rate. There were no changes in valuation techniques used during the six months ended ended June 30, 2020.2021.
    Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value is compared with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.
Impaired As of June 30, 2021, there were no loans that are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for the collateral dependent loans had a principal balance of $190,000 with a valuation allowance of $24,000 at June 30, 2020, and a resulting fair value of $166,000. The valuation allowance represents specific allocations for the allowance for credit losses for impaired loans.
    There were 0 charge-offs related to loans carried at fair value during the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019.2020. Activity related to changes in the allowance for loan losses related to impaired loans for the three months ended June 30, 20202021 and 20192020 was not considered significant for disclosure purposes.

is attributable to a shortage in the present value of expected future cash flows relative to the amortized cost should be recorded as a current period charge to earnings.  The discount rate in this analysis is the original yield expected at time of purchase.
     As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Company performed an analysis of the investment portfolio to determine whether any of the investments held in the portfolio had an other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). The Company evaluated all individual available-for-sale investment securities with an unrealized loss at June 30, 20202021 and identified those that had an unrealized loss for at least a consecutive 12 month period, which had an unrealized loss at June 30, 20202021 greater than 10% of the recorded book value on that date, or which had an unrealized loss of more than $10,000.$75,000.  The Company also analyzed any securities that may have been downgraded by credit rating agencies. 
    For those investment securities that met the evaluation criteria, management obtained and reviewed the most recently published national credit ratings for those investment securities.  For those bonds that were obligations of states and political subdivisions with an investment grade rating by the rating agencies, the Company also evaluated the financial condition of the municipality and any applicable municipal bond insurance provider and concluded thereThere were 0 OTTI losses recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020.2021.

The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized costs of the investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell, those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be the maturity date, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.

The contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed or supported by an agency or sponsored entity of the U.S. Government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability to hold and does not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.
 
Private Label Mortgage and Asset Backed Securities
 
    At June 30, 2020,2021, the Company had a total of 2349 Private Label Mortgage and Asset Backed Securities (PLMABS). NaN18 of the PLMABS securities were in a loss position for less than 12 months and NaN2 have been in loss for more than 12 months at June 30, 2020.2021. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell, those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be the maturity date, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021. The Company continues to monitor these securities for indications that declines in value, if any, may be other-than-temporary.

Allowance for Credit Losses

    The allowance for credit losses (the “Allowance”) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. The Allowance is established through a provision for credit losses which is charged to expense. Additions to the Allowance are expected to maintain the adequacy of the total Allowance after credit losses and loan growth. Credit exposures determined to be uncollectible are charged against the Allowance. Cash received on previously charged-off credits is recorded as a recovery to the Allowance. The overall Allowance consists of 2 primary components, specific reserves related to impaired loans and general reserves for probable incurred losses related to loans that are not impaired.
    For all portfolio segments, the determination of the general reserve for loans that are not impaired is based on estimates made by management, including but not limited to, consideration of historical losses by portfolio segment (and in certain cases peer data) over the most recent 2050 quarters, and qualitative factors including economic trends in the Company’s service areas, industry experience and trends, geographic concentrations, estimated collateral values, the Company’s underwriting policies, the character of the loan portfolio, and probable losses inherent in the portfolio taken as a whole.
    The following table shows the summary of activities for the Allowance as of and for the three months ended June 30, 20202021 and 20192020 by portfolio segment (in thousands):

Note 5. Goodwill

Business combinations involving the Company’s acquisition of the equity interests or net assets of another enterprise give rise to goodwill.  Total goodwill at June 30, 2021, was $53,777,000 consisting of $8,934,000, $14,643,000, $6,340,000, $10,394,000, and $13,466,000 representing the excess of the cost of Bank of Madera County, Service 1st Bancorp, Visalia Community Bank, Sierra Vista Bank, and Folsom Lake Bank, respectively, over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transactions accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting.  The value of goodwill is ultimately derived from the Company’s ability to generate net earnings after the acquisitions and is not deductible for tax purposes. A significant decline in net earnings, among other factors, could be indicative of a decline in the fair value of goodwill and result in impairment.  For that reason, goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment. The Company’s annual goodwill test is completed as of September 30 each year.
Goodwill is also tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company below its carrying amount. No such events or circumstances arose during the first six months of 2021.

Note 6.7.  Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk - In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for loans.
    Commitments to extend credit amounting to $315,695,000$316,702,000 and $291,182,000$326,179,000 were outstanding at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract unless waived by the Bank. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.
     Included in commitments to extend credit are undisbursed lines of credit totaling $314,105,000$306,144,000 and $289,465,000$314,774,000 at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.  Undisbursed lines of credit include credits whereby customers can repay principal and request principal advances during the term of the loan at their discretion and most expire between one and 12 months.
     Included in undisbursed lines of credit are commitments for the undisbursed portions of construction loans totaling $72,368,000$52,007,000 and $74,019,000$79,669,000 as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. These commitments are agreements to lend to customers, subject to meeting certain construction progress requirements established in the contracts. The underlying construction loans have fixed expiration dates.
     Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees amounting to $1,590,000$10,558,000 and $1,717,000$11,405,000 were outstanding at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support private financial arrangements. Most standby letters of credit and guarantees carry a one year term or less. The fair value of the liability related to these standby letters of credit, which represents the fees received for their issuance, was not significant at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.  The Company recognizes these fees as revenue over the term of the commitment or when the commitment is used.

Note 7.8. Earnings Per Share
 
Basic earnings per share (EPS), which excludes dilution, is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options or restricted stock awards, result in the

Stock Option Plan

    The Company bases the fair value of the options granted on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model that uses assumptions based on expected option life and the level of estimated forfeitures, expected stock volatility, risk free interest rate, and dividend yield.  The expected term and level of estimated forfeitures of the Company’s options are based on the Company’s own historical experience.  Stock volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock.  The risk-free rate is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve for the periods within the contractual life of the options in effect at the time of grant.  The compensation cost for options granted is based on the weighted average grant date fair value per share.
     NaN options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock were granted during the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019.2020.

OVERVIEW

Central Valley Community Bancorp (Company)
 
We are a central California-based bank holding company for a one-bank subsidiary, Central Valley Community Bank (Bank).  We provide traditional commercial banking services to small and medium-sized businesses and individuals in the communities along the Highway 99 corridor in the Fresno, El Dorado, Madera, Merced, Placer, Sacramento, Stanislaus, San Joaquin, and Tulare Counties of central California. As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to supervision, examination and regulation by the Federal Reserve Bank.
 
Central Valley Community Bank (Bank)
 
The Bank commenced operations in January 1980 as a state-chartered bank.  As a state-chartered bank, the Bank is subject to primary supervision, examination and regulation by the California Department of Business Oversight (DBO)Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI).  The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to the applicable limits thereof, and the Bank is subject to supervision, examination and regulations of the FDIC.
    The Bank is a member of the FDIC, which currently insures customer deposits in each member bank to a maximum of $250,000 per depositor.  For this insurance, the Bank is subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC, and, as is the case with all insured banks, may be required to pay a quarterly statutory assessment.
    The Bank operates 20 full-service branches which serve the communities of Cameron Park, Clovis, Exeter, Folsom, Fresno, Gold River, Kerman, Lodi, Madera, Merced, Modesto, Oakhurst, Prather, Roseville, Sacramento, Stockton, and Visalia, California.  Additionally the Bank operates Real Estate, Agribusiness and SBA departments that originate loans in California. According to the June 30, 20192020 FDIC data, the Bank’s branches in Fresno, Madera, San Joaquin, and Tulare Counties had a 3.31%3.40% combined deposit market share of all insured depositories. Our total market share in the other counties we operate in (El Dorado, Merced, Placer, Sacramento, and Stanislaus Counties), was less than 1.00% in 2019.2020.

Dividend Declared

On July 22, 2020,21, 2021, the Board of Directors declared an $0.11a $0.12 per share cash dividend payable on August 21, 202020, 2021 to shareholders of record as of August 7, 2020.6, 2021.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the local economy in the San Joaquin Valley and greater Sacramento area. Federal, State and local shelter-in-place recommendations were enacted in our markets in March 2020, causing many businesses to close and workers to be furloughed or lose jobs. Essential purpose entities such as medical professionals, food and agricultural businesses, and transportation and logistical businesses were exempted from the closures; however, unemployment rates are increasing in our local market area as compared to the prior quarter end.
    The Company is closely monitoring the effects of the pandemic on our loan and deposit customers. Our management team is focused on assessing the risks in our loan portfolio and working with our customers to minimize our losses. While some industry segments are being more impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic than others, we believe that our credit risk related to the loans outstanding to customers in the higher risk categories is well managed. This is primarily due to the existence of SBA and other loan guarantee programs, personal guarantees, and adequate collateralization.
    Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve have taken several actions designed to cushion the economic fallout. Most notably, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law at the end of March 2020 as a $2 trillion legislative package. The goal of the CARES Act is to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors. The package also includes extensive emergency funding for hospitals and providers. In addition to the general impact of COVID-19, certain provisions of the CARES Act as well as other recent legislative and regulatory relief efforts are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s operations. Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides that a qualified loan modification is exempt by law from classification as a Troubled Debt Restructuring pursuant to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Pursuant to these new capabilities, we have implemented a loan program to allow customers who may be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic to defer loan principal and interest payments for up to 90 days.
    The CARES Act established a $349 billion loan program administered through the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”), referred to as the paycheck protection programPaycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). Under the PPP, small businesses, sole proprietorships, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals may apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. After the initial $349 billion in funds for the PPP was exhausted, an additional $310 billion in funding for PPP loans was authorized. As a preferred SBA lender, we are participating in the PPP to help provide loans to our business customers to provide them with additional working

capital. The Company has worked diligently with the SBA to qualify clients to receive PPP loans. PPP borrowers who can demonstrate that the funding received has been used for certain purposes such as to cover payroll and rent costs and meet certain other requirements, can qualify for partial or full federal relief on loan principal and interest. At present, the qualifying process for PPP borrowers to receive approval for loan forgiveness has yet to be finalized by the SBA.
32


Nonqualifying borrowers or borrowers who have not applied for forgiveness, who received loans under the CARES Act, are contractually obligated to begin making monthly repayments on principal and interest six months after their loans have funded.
On January 13, 2021, the SBA reopened the PPP for second draw loans to small businesses and non-profit organizations that did receive a loan through the initial PPP phase. At least $25 billion has been set aside for second draw PPP loans to eligible borrowers with a maximum of 10 employees or for loans of $250,000 or less to eligible borrowers in low or moderate income neighborhoods. Generally speaking, businesses with more than 300 employees and/or less than a 25% reduction in gross receipts between comparable quarters in 2019 and 2020 are not eligible for second draw loans. Further, maximum loan amounts have been increased for accommodation and food service businesses. As of June 30, 2021 we have received approximately 512 applications totaling $78 million.
The federal bank regulatory agencies, along with their state counterparts, have issued guidance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and have taken a number of unprecedented steps to help banks navigate the pandemic and mitigate its impact. These include, without limitation: requiring banks to focus on business continuity and pandemic planning; adding pandemic scenarios to stress testing; encouraging bank use of capital buffers and reserves in lending programs; permitting certain regulatory reporting extensions; reducing margin requirements on swaps; permitting certain otherwise prohibited investments in investment funds; issuing guidance to encourage banks to work with customers affected by the pandemic and encourage loan workouts; and providing credit under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) for certain pandemic related loans, investments and public service. Moreover, because of the need for social distancing measures, the agencies revamped the manner in which they conducted periodic examinations of their regular institutions, including making greater use of off-site reviews. The Federal Reserve also issued guidance encouraging banking institutions to utilize its discount window for loans and intraday credit extended by its Reserve Banks to help households and businesses impacted by the pandemic and announced numerous funding facilities. The FDIC has also acted to mitigate the deposit insurance assessment effects of participating in the PPP and the Federal Reserve’s PPP Liquidity Facility and Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility.
    We have also taken measures to protect the health and safety of our employees by implementing remote work arrangements to the full extent possible, and by adjusting banking center hours and operational measures to promote social distancing. Management is closely monitoring credit metrics and performing stress testing on the Bank’s loan portfolio.metrics. Additional resources have been shifted to credit administration to closely analyze higher risk segments within the loan portfolio, monitor and track loan payment deferrals and customer liquidity, and provide timely reporting to management and the board of directors. The management team continues to analyze economic conditions in our geographic markets and perform stress testing of our investment portfolio as well as our loan portfolio. Based on the Company’s capital levels, conservative underwriting policies, low loan-to-deposit ratio, loan concentration diversification, and suburban geographical marketplace, management expects to be able to manage the economic risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and remain adequately capitalized.

Risks and Uncertainties
The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic indicating that almost all public commerce and related business activities must be, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The spread of the outbreak has caused significant disruptions in the U.S. economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Company operates. While there has been no material impact to the Company’s employees to date, COVID-19 could also potentially create widespread business continuity issues for the Company.
        The Company’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. If the global response to contain COVID-19 escalates further or is unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While it is not possible to know the full universe or extent that the impact of COVID-19, and resulting measures to curtail its spread, will have on the Company’s operations, the Company is disclosing potentially material items of which it is aware.

Financial position and results of operations

The Company’s interest income could be reduced due to COVID-19. In keeping with guidance from regulators, the Company is actively working with COVID-19 affected borrowers to defer their payments, interest, and fees. While interest and fees will still accrue to income through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Company is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.

Capital and liquidity

While the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19, its reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiary bank to service its debt. If the Company’s capital deteriorates such that its subsidiary bank is unable to pay dividends to it for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to service its debt.
35

Table of Contents
    The Company maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity. Wholesale funding markets have remained open to us, but rates for short term funding have recently been volatile. If funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s net interest margin. If an extended recession caused large numbers of the Company’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Company might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding.

Asset valuation

Currently, the Company does not expect COVID-19 to affect its ability to account timely for the assets on its balance sheet; however, this could change in future periods. While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, the Company does not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.
    COVID-19 could cause a further and sustained decline in the Company’s stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Company concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill is impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital.
        It is possible that Management considered the lingering effects of COVID-19 could cause the occurrence of what management would deemrelated economic downturn to be such a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause usand therefore performed qualitative assessments at the end of the first, second and fourth quarters of 2020. Given the continued economic impact of the pandemic, management determined it appropriate to perform an intangible asseta quantitative test as of September 30, 2020. Management engaged a third party valuation specialist to assist with the performance of the quantitative goodwill impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period.

Processes, controls and business continuity plan

Development of Revenue Streams
 
Over the past several years, we have focused on not only improving net income, but improving the consistency of our revenue streams in order to create more predictable future earnings and reduce the effect of changes in our operating environment on our net income.  Specifically, we have focused on net interest income through a variety of processes, including increases in average interest earning assets, and minimizing the effects of the recent interest rate changes on our net interest margin.  The Company’s net interest margin (fully tax equivalent basis) decreased to 4.11%3.67% for the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to 4.56%4.11% for the same period in 2019.2020.  The decrease in net interest margin in the period-over-period comparison resulted primarily from the decrease in the effective yield on average investment securities (including interest-earning deposits in other banks and Federal funds sold), and a decrease in the yield on the Company’s loan portfolio. Interest-bearing liabilities continue to benefit from low interest rates. In comparing the two periods ending June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, the effective yield on total earning assets decreased 5349 basis points, while the cost of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 1112 basis points and the cost of total deposits decreased to 0.11%0.06% compared to 0.13%0.11%.  Net interest income before the reversal of provision for credit losses for the six-month period ended June 30, 20202021 was $31,603,000$35,636,000 compared to $31,781,000$31,603,000 for the same period in 2019.2020.
    Our non-interest income generally consists of service charges and fees on deposit accounts, fee income from loan placements and other services, appreciation in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance, net gains from sales of investment securities, FHLB dividends, and other income. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1,014,0002021 decreased $4,512,000 or 13.39%52.54%, to $8,588,000$4,076,000 compared to $7,574,000$8,588,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020.  The increasedecrease resulted primarily from increasesdecreases in net realized gains on sales and calls of investment securities, loan placement fees, andservice charge income, gain related to the collection of life insurance proceeds;proceeds, and FHLB dividends; offset by decreasesincreases in service charge income, interchangeloan placement fees, and FHLB dividends,interchange fees, compared to the comparable 20192020 period. Further detail of non-interest income is provided below.
 
Asset Quality
 
For all banks and bank holding companies, asset quality has a significant impact on the overall financial condition and results of operations.  Asset quality is measured in terms of percentage of total loans and total assets and is a key element in estimating the future earnings of a company.  Total nonperforming assets were $2,406,000$2,035,000 and $1,693,000$3,278,000 at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.  Nonperforming assets totaled 0.21%0.19% of gross loans as of June 30, 20202021 and 0.18%0.30% of gross loans as of December 31, 2019.2020. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.13%0.09% as of June 30, 20202021 and 0.11%0.16% as of December 31, 2019.2020. The nonperforming assets at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 consisted of nonaccrual loans of $2,406,000$2,035,000 and $1,693,000,$3,278,000, respectively. The Company had no other real estate owned (OREO) or repossessed assets at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020. Management maintains certain loans that have been brought current by the borrower (less than 30 days delinquent) on nonaccrual status until such time as management has determined that the loans are likely to remain current in future periods. 
    The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of outstanding loan balance was 1.24%0.98% as of June 30, 20202021 and 0.97%1.17% as of December 31, 2019.2020. The ratio of net charge-off (recovery) to average loans was (0.09)(0.15)% as of June 30, 20202021 and 0.11%(0.05)% as of December 31, 2019.2020.

Asset Growth
 
As revenues from both net interest income and non-interest income are a function of asset size, the growth in assets has a direct impact in increasing net income and therefore ROE and ROA.  The majority of our assets are loans and investment securities, and the majority of our liabilities are deposits, and therefore the ability to generate deposits as a funding source for loans and investments is fundamental to our asset growth.  Total assets increased by $316,976,000$276,454,000 or 19.85%13.79% during the six months ended June 30, 20202021 to $1,913,731,000$2,280,550,000 compared to $1,596,755,000$2,004,096,000 as of December 31, 2019,2020, primarily due to the Company’s participation in the PPP.  Total gross loans increaseddecreased by 19.35%2.94% or $182,511,000$32,402,000 to $1,125,891,000$1,069,945,000 as of June 30, 20202021 compared to $943,380,000$1,102,347,000 as of December 31, 2019.  Total2020.  The gross loan decrease consisted of a decrease of $83,414,000 in the PPP loans, offset by an increase of $51,012,000 in non-PPP loan growth.Total deposits increased 23.72%14.88% to $1,649,557,000$1,979,094,000 as

The Company’s deposit balances for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased through organic growth and PPP loan proceeds retained in customer deposit accounts. Our loan-to-deposit ratio at June 30, 20202021 was 68.25%54.06% compared to 70.76%63.99% at December 31, 2019.2020.  The loan-to-deposit ratio of our peers was 82.00%80.00% at December 31, 2019.2020.  Further discussion of loans and deposits is below.
 
Capital Adequacy
 
Capital serves as a source of funds and helps protect depositors and shareholders against potential losses.  The Company has historically maintained substantial levels of capital.  The assessment of capital adequacy is dependent on several factors including asset quality, earnings trends, liquidity and economic conditions.  Maintenance of adequate capital levels is integral to providing stability to the Company.  The Company needs to maintain substantial levels of regulatory capital to give it flexibility in the changing regulatory environment and to respond to changes in the market and economic conditions including acquisition opportunities.
    The Company and the Bank are each subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may cause certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on our 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 and qualitative measures. These measures were established by bank regulatory agencies to ensure capital adequacy. As of August 30, 2018, bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion and banks like Central Valley Community Bank became subject to new capital requirements, and certain provisions of the new rules were phased in through 2019 under the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III. As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Bank met or exceeded all regulatory capital requirements inclusive of the capital buffer. The Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the regulatory guidelines for a well-capitalized financial institution under the Basel III regulatory requirements at June 30, 2020.2021. The Company’s regulatory capital ratios are presented in the table in the “Capital” section below.

Operating Efficiency
 
Operating efficiency is the measure of how efficiently earnings before provision for credit losses and taxes are generated as a percentage of revenue.  When measuring operating efficiency, a lower ratio is more favorable.  The Company’s efficiency ratio (operating expenses, excluding amortization of intangibles and foreclosed property expense, divided by net interest income before provision for credit losses (computed on a tax equivalent basis) plus non-interest income, excluding gains and losses from sales of securities and OREO, and gains related to the collection of life insurance proceeds) was 55.96% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 65.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 63.78% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020.  The increaseimprovement in the efficiency ratio was due to the growth in non-interest income along with the decrease in non-interest expense outpacing the growth in non-interest income.expense. Further discussion of the change in net interest income and increasedecrease in operating expenses is below.
    The Company’s net interest income before provision for credit losses on a non tax-equivalent basis plus non-interest income, net of investment securities related gains, decreased 1.02%increased 13.36% to $35,740,000$40,516,000 for the first six months of 20202021 compared to $36,107,000$35,740,000 for the same period in 2019,2020, while operating expenses, net of losses on sale of assets, and amortization of core deposit intangibles, increased 0.87%decreased 2.41% to $23,230,000$22,671,000 from $23,030,000$23,230,000 for the same period in 2019.2020.
 
Liquidity
 
Liquidity management involves the Bank’s ability to meet cash flow requirements arising from fluctuations in deposit levels and demands of daily operations, which include providing for customers’ credit needs, funding of securities purchases, and ongoing repayment of borrowings.  Our liquidity is actively managed on a daily basis and reviewed periodically by our management and Directors’ Asset/Liability Committee.  This process is intended to ensure the maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet our funding needs, including adequate cash flow for off-balance sheet commitments.  Our primary sources of liquidity are derived from financing activities which include the acceptance of customer and, to a lesser extent, broker deposits, Federal funds facilities and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB”).  We have available unsecured lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling approximately $110,000,000 and secured borrowing lines of approximately $255,973,000$245,311,000 with the FHLB.  These funding sources are augmented by collection of principal and interest on loans, the routine maturities and pay

    The decreaseincrease in net income for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 compared to the same period in 20192020 was primarily driven by a decreasean increase in net interest income, an increasea decrease in non-interest expense, a reversal of provision for credit losses, and an increase in the provision for credit losses,loan placement fees, partially offset by an increasea decrease in net realized gains on sales and calls of investment securities, an increase in loan placement fees,provision for income taxes, and a decrease in provision for income taxes.service charge income. During the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, the Company recorded a $4,375,000$3,300,000 reversal of provision for credit losses, compared to a $275,000$4,375,000 provision during the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020. The reversal of provision was recorded in anticipationto the allowance for credit losses resulted from our assessment of the potential effectsoverall adequacy of the COVID-19 pandemic on our loan portfolio. Weallowance for credit losses considering a number of factors as discussed in the “Allowance for Credit Losses” section. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company adjusted the economic risk factor methodology to incorporate the current economic implications from the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Interest Income and Expense
 
Net interest income is the most significant component of our income from operations.  Net interest income (the “interest rate spread”) is the difference between the gross interest and fees earned on the loan and investment portfolios and the interest paid on deposits and other borrowings.  Net interest income depends on the volume of and interest rate earned on interest earning assets and the volume of and interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
    The following table sets forth a summary of average balances with corresponding interest income and interest expense as well as average yield and cost information for the periods presented.  Average balances are derived from daily balances, and nonaccrual loans are not included as interest earning assets for purposes of this table.

Average total securities and interest-earning deposits for the first six months of 20202021 increased $59,421,000$363,326,000 or 11.98%65.41% to $555,497,000$918,823,000 compared to $496,076,000$555,497,000 for the same period in 2019.2020.  Income from investments represents 22.12%24.92% of net interest income for the first six months of 20202021 compared to 23.79%22.12% for the same period in 2019.2020.
    In an effort to increase yields, without accepting unreasonable risk, a significant portion of the investment purchases have been inportfolio is mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).  At June 30, 2020,2021, we held $254,338,000$407,823,000 or 46.71%42.82% of the total fair value of the investment portfolio in CMOs with an average yield of 2.57%1.57% as compared to $356,097,000$299,806,000 and $419,754,000$254,338,000 with average yields of 3.06%2.15% and 3.12%2.57% at December 31, 20192020 and June 30, 2019,2020, respectively.  We invest in CMOs and MBS as part of our overall strategy to increase our net interest margin.  CMOs and MBS by their nature react to changes in interest rates.  In a normal declining rate environment, prepayments from CMOs and MBS would be expected to increase and the expected life of the investment would be expected to shorten.  Conversely, if interest rates increase, prepayments normally would be expected to decline and the average life of the CMOs and MBS would be expected to extend.  However, in the current economic environment, prepayments may not behave according to historical norms.  Premium amortization and discount accretion of these investments affects our net interest income.  Management monitors the prepayment speed of these investments and adjusts premium amortization and discount accretion based on several factors.  These factors include the type of investment, the investment structure, interest rates, interest rates on new mortgage

loans, expectation of interest rate changes, current economic conditions, the level of principal remaining on the bond,

the bond coupon rate, the bond origination date, and volume of available bonds in market.  The calculation of premium amortization and discount accretion represents management’s reasonable estimate of principal pay downs inherent in the total investment portfolio.
    The net-of-tax unrealized gain on the investment portfolio was $7,423,000$12,874,000 at June 30, 20202021 and is reflected in the Company’s equity.  At June 30, 2020,2021, the average life of the investment portfolio was 4.565.22 years and the fair value of the portfolio reflected a net pre-tax unrealized gain of $10,538,000.$18,278,000.  Management reviews fair value declines on individual investment securities to determine whether they represent an other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for more detail. For the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, no OTTI was recorded.  Additional deterioration in the market values of our investment securities, if any, may require the Company to recognize OTTI losses in future periods.
    A component of the Company’s strategic plan has been to use its investment portfolio to offset, in part, its interest rate risk relating to variable rate loans.  At June 30, 2020,2021, we estimate an immediate rate increase of 200 basis points would result in an estimated decrease in the market value of the investment portfolio by approximately $48,000,000$106,000,000 or 8.82%10.25%.  Conversely, with an immediate rate decrease of 200 basis points, the estimated increase in the market value of the investment portfolio would be $56,000,000$107,000,000 or 10.29%10.35%.  Our modeling environment assumes management would take no action during an immediate shock of 200 basis points.  However, the Company uses those increments to measure its interest rate risk in accordance with regulatory requirements and risk tolerance policy limits established by the Board of Directors to measure the possible future risk in the investment portfolio. 
    Management’s review of all investments before purchase includes an analysis of how the security will perform under several interest rate scenarios to monitor whether investments are consistent with our investment policy.  The policy addresses issues of average life, duration, concentration guidelines, prohibited investments, impairment, and prohibited practices.

Provision for Credit Losses
 
We provide for probable incurred credit losses through a charge to operating income based upon the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, historical losses, and nonperforming assets, economic and environmental conditions and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve recognition in estimating credit losses. Credit risk is inherent in the business of making loans. The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses on loans through charges to earnings, which are presented in the statements of income as the provision for credit losses on loans. Specifically identifiable and quantifiable known losses are promptly charged off against the allowance. Loans are charged off when they are considered uncollectible or when continuance as an active earning bank asset is not warranted.
    The establishment of an adequate credit allowance is based on both an accurateallowance model that utilizes qualitative and quantitative factors, historical losses, loan level risk rating systemratings and loan portfolio management tools.  The Board of Directors havehas established initial responsibility for the accuracy of credit risk gradesratings with the individual lending officer.  Then thecredit officer and oversight from Credit Review Officer (CRO) will review loans to ensureAdministration who ensures the accuracy of the risk grade and is empowered to change any risk grade, as appropriate. The CRO is not involved in loan originations.ratings. Quarterly, the lendingcredit officers must certify the current risk graderatings of the loans in their portfolio. The CROCredit Administration reviews these certifications. At least quarterly the CROcertifications and reports his activities to the Board of Directors Audit Committee; and atCommittee. At least annually the loan portfolio, including risk ratings, is reviewed by a third party credit reviewer. The regulatoryRegulatory agencies will also review the loan portfolio on a periodic basis..basis. See “Allowance for Credit Losses” for more information on the Company’s Allowance for Loan Loss.
    Quarterly, the Chief Credit Officer (CCO) reviews the specific reserve calculations for all impaired credits.  Additionally, the CCO is responsible to ensure that the general reserves on non-impaired loans are properly set each quarter.  This process includes the utilization of loan delinquency reports, classified asset reports, collateral analysis and portfolio concentration reports to assist in accurately assessing credit risk and establishing appropriate reserves. 
    The allowance for credit losses is reviewed at least quarterly by the Board of Directors Audit Committee and by the Board of Directors.  General reserves are allocated to loan portfolio categories using percentages which are based on both historical risk elements such as delinquencies and losses and predictive risk elements such as economic, competitive and environmental factors.  We have adopted the specific reserve approach to allocate reserves to each impaired credit for the purpose of estimating potential loss exposure.  Although the allowance for credit losses is allocated to various portfolio categories, it is general in nature and available for the loan portfolio in its entirety.  Changes in the allowance for credit losses may be required based on the results of independent loan portfolio examinations, regulatory agency examinations, or our own internal review process.  Additions are also required when, in management’s judgment, the allowance does not properly reflect the portfolio’s probable loss exposure. Management believes that all adjustments, if any, to the allowance for credit losses are supported by the timely and consistent application of methodologies and processes resulting in detailed documentation of the allowance calculation and other portfolio trending analysis.

    Loans are charged to the allowance for credit losses when the loans are deemed uncollectible.  It is the policy of management to make additions to the allowance so that it remains adequate to cover all probable incurred credit losses that exist in the portfolio at that time. We assign qualitative and environmental factors (Q factors) to each loan category. Q factors include reserves held for the effects of lending policies, economic trends, and portfolio trends along with other dynamics which may cause additional stress to the portfolio.
    Managing high-risk credits includes developing a business strategy with the customer to mitigate our potential losses. Management continues to monitor these credits with a view to identifying as early as possible when, and to what extent, additional provisions may be necessary. Management believes that the level of allowance for loan losses allocated to commercial and real estate loans has been adjusted accordingly.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, the Company recorded a $4,375,000$3,300,000 reversal of provision for credit losses, compared to a $275,000$4,375,000 provision during the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020. The reversal of provision to the allowance for credit losses resulted from our assessment of the overall adequacy of the allowance for credit losses considering a number of factors as discussed in the “Allowance for Credit Losses” section. During the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, the Company adjusted the economic risk factor methodology to incorporate the current economic implications from the COVID-19 pandemic.
    The Company had net recoveries totaling $432,000$824,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, and $26,000$432,000 for the same period in 2019.2020.
    Nonperforming loans, consisting entirely of nonaccrual loans, were $2,406,000$2,035,000 and $1,693,000$3,278,000 at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, and $2,442,000$2,406,000 at June 30, 2019.2020.  Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.19% at June 30, 2021 compared to 0.30% at December 31, 2020 and 0.21% at June 30, 2020 compared to 0.18% at December 31, 2019 and 0.25% at June 30, 2019.2020.  The Company had no other real estate owned (OREO) at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020. The Company held no repossessed assets at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.
    The annualized net charge-off (recovery) ratio, which reflects net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans was (0.09)(0.15)% for the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, and (0.01)(0.09)% for the same period in 2019.2020.
    Economic pressures may negatively impact the financial condition of borrowers to whom the Company has extended credit and as a result when negative economic conditions are anticipated, we may be required to make significant provisions to the allowance for credit losses. The Bank conducts banking operationoperations principally in California’s Central Valley. The Central Valley is largely dependent on agriculture. The agricultural economy in the Central Valley is therefore important to our business, financial performance and results of operation and cash flows.operations. We are also dependent in a large part upon the business activity, population growth, income levels and real estate activity in this market area. A downturn in agriculture and the agricultural related businesses could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operationoperations and financial condition. The agricultural industry has been affected by declines in prices and the changes in yields foron various crops and other agricultural commodities. Similarly, weaker prices could reduce the cash flows generated by farms and the value of agricultural land in our local markets and thereby increase the risk of default by our borrowers or reduce the foreclosure value of agricultural land and equipment that serve as collateral of our loans. Further declines in commodity prices or collateral values may increase the
44


incidence of default by our borrowers. Moreover, weaker prices might threaten farming operations in the Central Valley, reducing market demand for agricultural lending. In particular, farm income has seen recent declines, and in line with the downturn in farm income, farmland prices are coming under pressure.
    We have been and will continue to be proactive in looking for signs of deterioration within the loan portfolio in an effort to manage credit quality and work with borrowers where possible to mitigate losses. As of June 30, 2020,2021, there were $38.7$32.9 million in classified loans of which $7.1$1.2 million related to agricultural real estate, $12.3$12.1 million to commercial and industrial loans, $6.5$3.0 million to agricultural production, $5.6$7.0 million to real estate owner occupied, $2.3$9.6 million in commercial real estate, $3.7 million to real estate construction and other land loans, and $1.2 million to consumer equity loans and lines of credit.estate. This compares to $33.8$36.1 million in classified loans of which $7.3$1.2 million related to agricultural real estate, $13.2$10.4 million to commercial and industrial loans, $4.3$3.3 million to agricultural production, $4.7$7.3 million to real estate owner occupied, $1.1$9.6 million to commercial real estate, $1.5$1.0 million to consumer equity and lines of credit, and $1.6$3.2 million to real estate construction and other land loans as of December 31, 2019.2020.
    As of June 30, 2020,2021, we believe, based on all current and available information, the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb probable incurred losses within the loan portfolio.  However, no assurance can be given that we may not sustain charge-offs which are in excess of the allowance in any given period.  Refer to the “Allowance for Credit Losses” section for further information.

Fair Value
 
The Company measures the fair values of its financial instruments utilizing a hierarchical framework associated with the level of observable pricing scenarios utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value.  The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally correlates to the level of the observable pricing scenario.  Financial instruments with readily available actively quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of observable pricing and a lesser degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value.  Conversely, financial instruments rarely traded or not quoted will generally have little or no observable pricing and a higher degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value.  Observable pricing scenarios are impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established and the characteristics specific to the transaction. See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for additional information about the level of pricing transparency associated with financial instruments carried at fair value.

    The Board and management have had periodic discussions about our strategy for risk management in dealing with potential losses should interest rates begin to rise. We have been managing the portfolio with an objective of optimizing risk and return in various interest rate scenarios. We do not attempt to predict future interest rates, but we analyze the cash flows of our investment portfolio in different interest rate scenarios in connection with the rest of our balance sheet to design an investment portfolio that optimizes performance. 
    The Company periodically evaluates each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports, observation of market conditions, and interest rate fluctuations.  The portion of the impairment that is attributable to a shortage in the present value of expected future cash flows relative to the amortized cost should be recorded as a current period charge to earnings.  The discount rate in this analysis is the original yield expected at time of purchase.
    Management evaluated all available-for-sale investment securities with an unrealized loss at June 30, 20202021 and identified those that had an unrealized loss for at least a consecutive 12 month period, which had an unrealized loss at June 30, 20202021 greater than 10% of the recorded book value on that date, or which had an unrealized loss of more than $10,000.$75,000.  Management also analyzed any securities that may have been downgraded by credit rating agencies. 
     For those securities that met the evaluation criteria, management obtained and reviewed the most recently published national credit ratings for those securities.  For those securities that were obligations of states and political subdivisions with an investment grade rating by the rating agencies, the Company also evaluated the financial condition of the municipality and any applicable municipal bond insurance provider and concluded thereThere were no OTTI losses recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized costs of the investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell, those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be the maturity date, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.
    At June 30, 2020,2021, the Company held 74one U.S. Government agency security which was in a gain position.
    At June 30, 2021, the Company held 122 obligations of states and political subdivision securities of which 1216 were in a loss position for less than 12 months. At June 30, 2020, the Company held four corporate debt securities of which two were in a loss position for less than twelve months. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in obligations of states and political subdivision securities and corporate debt securities were caused by interest rate changes. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.
    At June 30, 2020,2021, the Company held 113115 U.S. Government sponsored entity and agency securities collateralized by residential mortgage obligations of which seveneight were in a loss position for less than 12 months and 1911 have been in a loss position for more than 12 months. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in U.S. Government sponsored entities and agencies collateralized by residential mortgage obligations were caused by interest rate changes. The contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed by an agency or sponsored entity of the U.S. Government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability to hold and does not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.

Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be the maturity date, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021. The Company continues to monitor these securities for indications that declines in value, if any, may be other-than-temporary.
At June 30, 2021, the Company held 14 corporate debt securities of which five were in a loss position for less than 12 months. The unrealized loss on the Company’s investments in corporate debt security was caused by interest rate changes. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2021.

    As of June 30, 2020,2021, in management’s judgment, a concentration of loans existed in commercial loans and loans collateralized by real estate, representing approximately 96.5% of total loans.  This level of concentration of commercial loans and loans collateralized by real estate is consistent with 95.5%96.7% of total loans at December 31, 2019.2020.  Although management believes the loans within this concentration have no more than the normal risk of collectibility, a substantial decline in the performance of the economy in general or a decline in real estate values in our primary market areas, in particular, could have an adverse impact on collectibility, increase the level of real estate-related non-performing loans, or have other adverse effects which alone or in the aggregate could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.  The Company does not engage in any sub-prime mortgage lending activities.
    At June 30, 2020,2021, loans acquired in the Folsom Lake Bank (FLB), Sierra Vista Bank (SVB) and Visalia Community Bank (VCB) acquisitions had a balance of $141,925,000,$109,932,000, of which $2,889,000$2,374,000 were commercial loans, $122,062,000$98,912,000 were real estate loans, and $16,974,000$8,646,000 were consumer loans. At December 31, 2019,2020, loans acquired in the FLB, SVB and VCB acquisitions had a balance of $152,735,000,$127,186,000, of which $4,009,000$2,529,000 were commercial loans, $130,656,000$110,616,000 were real estate loans, and $18,070,000$14,041,000 were consumer loans.
    We believe that our commercial real estate loan underwriting policies and practices result in prudent extensions of credit, but recognize that our lending activities result in relatively high reported commercial real estate lending levels.  Commercial real estate loans include certain loans which represent low to moderate risk and certain loans with higher risks. Contributing to the commercial and industrial loan growth was the issuance of PPP loans. As of June 30, 2020,2021, gross loans included $211,575,000$109,502,000 in PPP loans which are fully guaranteed by the SBA.
    The Board of Directors review and approve concentration limits and exceptions to limitations of concentration are reported to the Board of Directors at least quarterly.

Nonperforming Assets
 
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans, other real estate owned (OREO), and repossessed assets.  Nonperforming loans are those loans which have (i) been placed on nonaccrual status; (ii) been classified as doubtful under our asset classification system; or (iii) become contractually past due 90 days or more with respect to principal or interest and have not been restructured or otherwise placed on nonaccrual status.  A loan is classified as nonaccrual when (i) it is maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower; (ii) payment in full of principal or interest under the original contractual terms is not expected; or (iii) principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.
    At June 30, 2020,2021, total nonperforming assets totaled $2,406,000,$2,035,000, or 0.13%0.09% of total assets, compared to $1,693,000,$3,278,000, or 0.11%0.16% of total assets at December 31, 2019.2020.  Total nonperforming assets at June 30, 2020,2021, included nonaccrual loans totaling $2,406,000,$2,035,000, no OREO, and no other repossessed assets. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 20192020 consisted of $1,693,000$3,278,000 in nonaccrual loans, no OREO, and no other repossessed assets. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no loan considered to be a troubled debt restructuring (“TDRs”) included in nonaccrual loans totaling $0 compared to one TDR totaling $322,000 at December 31, 2019.loans.
    A summary of nonperforming loans at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 is set forth below.  The Company had no loans past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest at June 30, 20202021 or at December 31, 2019.2020.  Management can give no assurance that nonaccrual and other nonperforming loans will not increase in the future.

    We measure our impaired loans by using the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent and the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original contractual interest rate if the loan is not collateral dependent.  As of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, we had impaired loans totaling $14,187,000$8,539,000 and $3,734,000,$11,186,000, respectively.  For collateral dependent loans secured by real estate, we obtain external valuations which are updated at least annually to determine the fair value of the collateral, and we record an immediatea charge-off for the difference between the book value of the loan and the appraised value less selling costs value of the collateral.collateral, unless there is an extenuating circumstance that may positively affect the amount collected. We perform quarterly internal reviews on substandard loans. We place loans on nonaccrual status and classify them as impaired when it becomes probable that we will not receive interest and principal under the original contractual terms, or when loans are delinquent 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.  Management maintains certain loans that have been brought current by the borrower (less than 30 days delinquent) on nonaccrual status until such time as management has determined that the loans are likely to remain current in future periods.

    OREO represents real property taken either through foreclosure or through a deed in lieu thereof from the borrower.  OREO is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell and thereafter carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less selling costs. We had no OREO properties at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020. The Company held no repossessed assets at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses
 
We have established a methodology for determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses made up of general and specific allocations.  The methodology is set forth in a formal policy and takes into consideration the need for an overall allowance for credit losses as well as specific allowances that are tied to individual loans.  The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of probable incurred credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance consists of two primary components, specific reserves related to impaired loans and general reserves for probable incurred losses related to loans that are not impaired.
    For all portfolio segments, the determination of the general reserve for loans that are not impaired is based on estimates made by management, including but not limited to, consideration of historical losses by portfolio segment (and in certain cases peer loss data) over the most recent 2050 quarters, and qualitative factors including economic trends in the Company’s service areas, industry experience and trends, geographic concentrations, estimated collateral values, the Company’s underwriting policies, the character of the loan portfolio, and probable losses incurred in the portfolio taken as a whole. Management has determined that the most recent 2050 quarters was an appropriate look back period based on several factors including the current global economic uncertainty and various national and local economic indicators, and a time period sufficient to capture enough data due to the size of the portfolio to produce statistically accurate historical loss calculations. We believe this period is an appropriate look back period.
    In originating loans, we recognize that losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan, general economic conditions and, in the case of a secured loan, the quality of the collateral securing the loan.  The allowance is increased by provisions charged against earnings and recoveries, and reduced by net loan charge-offs.  Loans are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible, or partially charged off when portions of a loan are deemed to be uncollectible.  Recoveries are generally recorded only when cash payments are received.
    The allowance for credit losses is maintained to cover probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio.  The responsibility for the review of our assets and the determination of the adequacy lies with management and our Audit Committee.  They delegate the authority to the Chief Credit Officer (CCO) to determine the loss reserve ratio for each type of asset and to review, at least quarterly, the adequacy of the allowance based on an evaluation of the portfolio, past experience, prevailing market conditions, amount of government guarantees, concentration in loan types and other relevant factors.
    The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the probable incurred credit losses in our loan and lease portfolio.  The allowance is based on principles of accounting: (i) losses accrued for on loans when they are probable of occurring and can be reasonably estimated and (ii) losses accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.
    Management adheres to an internal asset review system and loss allowance methodology designed to provide for timely recognition of problem assets and adequate valuation allowances to cover probable incurred losses.  The Bank’s asset

monitoring process includes the use of asset classifications to segregate the assets, largely loans, and real estate, into various risk categories.  The Bank uses the various asset classifications as a means of measuring risk and determining the adequacy of valuation allowances by using a nine-grade system to classify assets.  In general, all credit facilities exceeding 90 days of delinquency require classification and are placed on nonaccrual.

Managing credits identified through the risk evaluation methodology includes developing a business strategy with the customer to mitigate our losses.  Our management continues to monitor these credits with a view to identifying as early as possible when, and to what extent, additional provisions may be necessary.  Risks and uncertainties exist in all lending transactions and our management and Board of Directors’ Loan Committee have established reserve levels based on economic uncertainties and other risks that exist as of each reporting period.
The allowance for credit losses is reviewed at least quarterly by the Bank’s and our Board of Directors’ Audit Committee.  Reserves are allocated to loan portfolio segments using percentages which are based on both historical risk elements such as delinquencies and losses and predictive risk elements such as economic, competitive and environmental factors.  We have adopted the specific reserve approach to allocate reserves to each impaired asset for the purpose of estimating potential loss exposure. At the onset of COVID we established a dedicated qualitative factor to address the lagging effect on our quantitative data. We have begun reducing that factor’s impact on the ALLL given the passage of time. We adjusted the economic risk factor methodology to incorporate the currentimproving economic implicationsconditions and risingdecreasing unemployment rate from the COVID-19 pandemic.rate. Although the allowance for credit losses is allocated to various portfolio categories, it is general in nature and available for the loan portfolio in its entirety.  Additions may be required based on the results of independent loan portfolio examinations, regulatory agency examinations, or our own internal review process.  Additions are also required when, in management’s judgment, the reserve does not properly reflect the potential loss exposure.
    As of June 30, 2020,2021, the balance in the allowance for credit losses (ALLL) was $13,937,000$10,439,000 compared to $9,130,000$12,915,000 as of December 31, 2019.2020.  The increasedecrease is attributed to the additionalreversal of provision of $4,375,000$3,300,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2020.2021.  The balance of undisbursed commitments to extend credit on construction and other loans and letters of credit was $315,695,000$316,702,000 as of June 30, 2020,2021, compared to $291,182,000$326,179,000 as of December 31, 2019.2020.  At June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the balance of a contingent allocation for probable loan loss experience on unfunded obligations was $175,000 and $250,000, respectively.$250,000. The contingent allocation for probable loan loss experience on unfunded obligations is calculated by management using appropriate, systematic, and consistently applied processes.  While related to credit losses, this allocation is not a part of the ALLL and is considered separately as a liability for accounting and regulatory reporting purposes.
    As of June 30, 2020,2021, the ALLL was 1.24%0.98% of total gross loans compared to 0.97%1.17% as of December 31, 2019.2020.  Total loans include FLB, SVB and VCB loans that were recorded at fair value in connection with the acquisitions, with values of $141,925,000$109,932,000 at June 30, 20202021 and $152,735,000$127,186,000 at December 31, 2019.2020. Excluding these FLB, SVB and VCB loans from the calculation, the ALLL to total gross loans was 1.42%1.09% and 1.15%1.32% at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively and general reserves associated with non-impaired loans to total non-impaired loans was 1.41%1.13% and 1.16%1.41%, respectively. As of June 30, 2020,2021, gross loans included $211,575,000$109,502,000 related to PPP loans which are fully guaranteed by the SBA. Excluding PPP loans and the acquired loans from the calculation, the allowance for credit losses to total gross loans was 1.80%1.23% and 1.15%1.65% as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. The Company believes the allowance for credit losses is adequate to provide for probable incurred credit losses within the loan portfolio at June 30, 2020.2021. The loan portfolios acquired in the mergers were booked at fair value with no associated allocation in the ALLL.  The size of the fair value discount remains adequate for all non-impaired acquired loans; therefore, there is no associated allocation in the ALLL for those loans.
    The Company’s loan portfolio balances for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 increased through organic growth and through participation in the PPP loan program.growth.  Management believes that the change in the allowance for credit losses to total loans ratio is directionally consistent with the composition of loans and the level of nonperforming and classified loans, partially offsetand by the general economic conditions experienced in the central California communities serviced by the Company, andpartially offset by recent improvements in real estate collateral values.
    Assumptions regarding the collateral value of various under-performing loans may affect the level and allocation of the allowance for credit losses in future periods.  The allowance may also be affected by trends in the amount of charge-offs

experienced or expected trends within different loan portfolios. However, the total reserve rates on non-impaired loans include qualitative factors which are systematically derived and consistently applied to reflect conservatively estimated losses from loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements. Based on the above considerations and given recent changes in historical

charge-off rates included in the ALLL modeling and the changes in other factors, management determined that the ALLL was appropriate as of June 30, 2020.2021. However, no assurance can be given that the Company may not sustain charge-offs which are in excess of the allowance in any given period.
    The following table illustrates and sets forth additional analysis which portrays the trends that are occurring in the loan portfolio.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
Business combinations involving the Company’s acquisition of the equity interests or net assets of another enterprise give rise to goodwill.  Total goodwill at June 30, 2020,2021, was $53,777,000 consisting of $8,934,000, $14,643,000, $6,340,000, $10,394,000, and $13,466,000 representing the excess of the cost of Bank of Madera County, Service 1st 1st Bancorp, Visalia Community Bank, Sierra Vista Bank, and Folsom Lake Bank, respectively, over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transactions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.  The value of goodwill is ultimately derived from the Company’s ability to generate net earnings after the acquisitions and is not deductible for tax purposes. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to adjustment during the first twelve months after the acquisition date if additional information becomes available to indicate a more accurate or appropriate value for an asset or liability.  A significant decline in net earnings, among other factors, could be indicative of a decline in the fair value of goodwill and result in impairment.  For that reason, goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment.
        Management performed a qualitative assessment in the third quarter of 2019 to determine if a goodwill impairment test was required. Based upon review of qualitative factors as allowed per ASC 350, it was determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Company was higher than the carrying value and therefore a quantitative goodwill impairment test was not required. Subsequent to this qualitative assessment duringDuring March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic emerged and began impacting the state and local economies in our market due to local shelter-in-place orders and restrictions on businesses which caused many nonessential businesses to close and workers to be temporarily unemployed. COVID-19 could cause a further and sustained decline in the Company’s stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Company concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill is impaired, a non-cash charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital. Management considered the COVID-19 related economic downturn to be such a triggering event and therefore performed qualitative assessments at the end of the first, second and fourth quarters of 2020. Given the continued economic impact of the pandemic, management determined it appropriate to perform a quantitative test as of September 30, 2020. Management engaged a third party valuation specialist to assist with the performance of the quantitative goodwill impairment test in the third quarter of 2020. Significant assumptions inherent in the valuation methodologies for goodwill that were employed and included, but were not limited to, prospective financial information, growth rates, terminal value, discount rates, and comparable multiples from publicly traded companies in our industry. Based on this quantitative test, it was determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value as of September 30, 2020.
Goodwill is assessed for impairment between annual tests if a triggering event occurs or circumstances change that may cause the fair value of a reporting unit to decline below its carrying amount. Management considers the entire Company to be one reporting unit. Management consideredNo such events or circumstances arose during the COVID-19 relatedfirst six months of 2021. Changes in the economic downturn to be such a triggering event and therefore performed the same qualitative assessment at the endenvironment, operations of the first quarter of 2020. Based upon this assessment it was determined that it was more likely than not thatreporting unit or other adverse events could result in future impairment charges which could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of the Company was more than its carrying value and therefore no quantitative impairment test was required. Given the continued economic impact of the pandemic, management again determined it appropriate to perform a qualitative assessment as of June 30, 2020. Based on management’s qualitative assessment, it was determined that there was no change to the conclusion reached at the end of the first quarter and therefore management believes it is more likely than not the fair value of the Company has not decreased below the carrying value.Company’s operating results.
    The intangible assets represent the estimated fair value of the core deposit relationships acquired in the 2017 acquisition of Folsom Lake Bank of $1,879,000, the 2016 acquisition of Sierra Vista Bank of $508,000, and the 2013 acquisition of Visalia Community Bank of $1,365,000.  Core deposit intangibles are being amortized using the straight-line method (which approximates the effective interest method) over estimated lives of five to 10 years from the date of acquisition.  The carrying value of intangible assets at June 30, 20202021 was $1,530,000,$835,000, net of $2,222,000$2,744,000 in accumulated amortization expense.  The carrying value at December 31, 20192020 was $1,878,000,$1,183,000, net of $1,874,000$2,569,000 accumulated amortization expense.  We evaluate the remaining useful lives quarterly to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining periods of amortization.  Based on the evaluation, no changes to the remaining useful lives was required in the first six months of 2020.2021.  Amortization expense recognized was $347,000 and $347,000 for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and June 30, 2019,2020, respectively.

Capital
 
Capital serves as a source of funds and helps protect depositors and shareholders against potential losses.  Historically, the primary source of capital for the Company has been through retained earnings. 
The Company has historically maintained substantial levels of capital.  The assessment of capital adequacy is dependent on several factors including asset quality, earnings trends, liquidity and economic conditions.  Maintenance of adequate capital levels is integral to providing stability to the Company.  The Company needs to maintain substantial levels of regulatory capital to give it maximum flexibility in the changing regulatory environment and to respond to changes in the market and economic conditions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our results of operations are highly dependent upon our ability to manage interest rate risk. We consider interest rate risk to be a significant market risk that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Interest rate risk is measured and assessed on a quarterly basis. In our opinion, there has not been a material change in our interest rate risk exposure since the information disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report. The evaluation was based in part upon reports provided by a number of executives.  Based upon, and as of the date of the evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits
63

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

    There was no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 20202021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
    In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factors represent material updates and additions to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10- K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20192020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, to the extent that any of the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitutes forward-looking statements, the risk factor set forth below also is a cautionary statement identifying important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.
The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic may have a material adverse affect on our business and financial performance and financial condition.

The economic impact of the novel COVID-19 outbreak could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States as many state and local governments have ordered non-essential businesses to close and residents to shelter in place at home. This has resulted in an unprecedented slow-down in economic activity and a related increase in unemployment. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, more than 22 million people have filed claims for unemployment, and stock markets have declined in value and, in particular, bank stocks have significantly declined in value. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Federal Reserve Board has reduced the benchmark fed funds rate to a target range of 0% to 0.25%, and the yields on 10 and 30-year treasury notes have declined to historic lows. Various state governments and federal agencies are requiring lenders to provide forbearance and other relief to borrowers (e.g., waiving late payment and other fees). The federal banking agencies have encouraged financial institutions to prudently work with affected borrowers and recently passed legislation has provided relief from reporting loan classifications due to modifications related to the COVID-19 outbreak. Certain industries have been particularly hard-hit, including the travel and hospitality industry, the restaurant industry and the retail industry. Finally, the spread of the coronavirus has caused us to modify our business practices, including employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences. We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and when and how the economy may be reopened.
        As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations:

demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income;
if the economy is unable to substantially reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income;
collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase;
64

Table of Contents
our allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties beyond forbearance periods, which will adversely affect our net income;
the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;
as the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income;
a material decrease in net income or a net loss over several quarters could result in a decrease in the rate of our quarterly cash dividend;
a prolonged weakness in economic conditions resulting in a reduction of future projected earnings could result in our recording a valuation allowance against our current outstanding deferred tax assets;
we rely on third party vendors for certain services and the unavailability of a critical service due to the COVID-19 outbreak could have an adverse effect on us; and
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs.

        Moreover, our future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of our executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with us for many years. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm our ability to operate our business or execute our business strategy. We may not be successful in finding and integrating suitable successors in the event of key employee loss or unavailability.
        Any one or a combination of the factors identified above could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and prospects.

As a participating lender in the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), the Company and the Bank are subject to additional risks of litigation from the Bank’s customers or other parties regarding the Bank’s processing of loans for the PPP and risks that the SBA may not fund some or all PPP loan guaranties.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which included a loan program administered through the SBA referred to as the PPP. Under the PPP, small businesses and other entities and individuals can apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. The Bank is participating as a lender in the PPP. The PPP opened on April 3, 2020; however, because of the short timeframe between the passing of the CARES Act and the opening of the PPP, there was some ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP, which exposes the Company to risks relating to noncompliance with the PPP.
Since the opening of the PPP, several other larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that such banks used in processing applications for the PPP and claims related to agent fees. The Company and the Bank may be exposed to the risk of similar litigation, from both customers and non-customers that approached the Bank regarding PPP loans, regarding its process and procedures used in processing applications for the PPP, or litigation from agents with respect to agent fees. If any such litigation is filed against the Company or the Bank and is not resolved in a manner favorable to the Company or the Bank, it may result in significant financial liability or adversely affect the Company’s reputation. In addition, litigation can be costly, regardless of outcome. Any financial liability, litigation costs or reputational damage caused by PPP related litigation could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Bank also has credit risk on PPP loans if a determination is made by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded, or serviced by the Bank, such as an issue with the eligibility of a borrower to receive a PPP loan, which may or may not be related to the ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there was a deficiency in the manner in which the PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by the Company, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from the Company.
