HOPE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.Hope Bancorp, Inc.

Hope Bancorp, Inc. (“Hope Bancorp” on a parent-only basis and the “Company” on a consolidated basis), headquartered in Los Angeles, California, is the holding company for Bank of Hope (the “Bank”). As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Bank operated branches in California, Washington, Texas, Illinois, Alabama, Virginia, New Jersey, and New York, loan production offices in Colorado, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Georgia, ~~New Jersey,~~ Southern California, and Northern California, and a representative office in Seoul, South Korea. The Company is a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware and a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.

2.Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), except for the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, ~~2019~~2020 which was from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hope Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiaries, principally Bank of Hope. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has made all adjustments, that in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019.~~2020. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be anticipated for the full year.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The global pandemic resulting from the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has substantially and negatively impacted the United States economy, disrupted global supply chains, considerably lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and materially increased unemployment levels. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of countless businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in most states and communities. Although some states have relaxed some of the business closures and other social distancing requirements, the recent rise in COVID-19 cases due to the COVID-19 Delta variant has resulted in states reinstating certain COVID related restrictions. The Company has, and could continue to, experience a material and adverse effect on its business as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting governmental actions to curtail its spread. It is at least reasonably possible that information which was available to the Company at the date of the financial statements will change in the near term due to the COVID-19 pandemic and that the effect of the change could be material to the financial statements. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s estimates and assumptions is highly uncertain.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read along with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, ~~Reference~~“Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial ~~Reporting.~~Reporting”. The amendments provide temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments primarily include relief related to contract modifications and hedging relationships, as well as providing a one-time election for the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. This ~~guidance is effective immediately and the amendments~~one time election may be ~~applied prospectively through~~made at any time after March 12, 2020, but no later than December 31, 2022. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating ASU 2020-04 to determine whether the Company will make this election and ~~determining~~is currently assessing the significance of the impact of modifying contracts in consideration of the election of this amendment.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “Codification Improvements to Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform”. ASU 2021-01 amends the scope of the recent reference rate reform guidance and clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. New optional expedients allow derivative instruments impacted by changes in the interest rate used for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment (i.e., discount transition) to qualify for certain optional relief. The new optional expedients for contract modifications and hedge accounting are expected to benefit companies, including those with certain centrally cleared derivatives affected by a discount rate transition in 2020. Amendments to the expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 captures the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition.

3. Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS does not reflect the possibility of dilution that could result from the issuance of additional shares of common stock upon exercise or conversion of outstanding equity awards or convertible notes and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, convertible notes, or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted to common stock that would then share in earnings. For the three months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, stock options and restricted share awards of ~~1,450,408~~544,925 and ~~982,625~~1,450,408 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded in computing diluted earnings per common share because they were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, stock options and restricted shares awards of ~~737,208~~775,710 and ~~959,319~~737,208 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded in computing diluted earnings per common share because they were anti-dilutive.

The Company previously issued $217.5 million in convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038. The convertible notes can be converted into the Company’s shares of common stock at an initial rate of 45.0760 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes (See footnote 10 “Subordinated Debentures and Convertible Notes” for additional information regarding convertible notes issued). With the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the if-converted method is required for calculating dilutive EPS for all convertible instruments since the treasury stock method is no longer available. Under the if-converted method, the denominator of the diluted EPS calculation is adjusted to reflect the full number of common shares issuable upon conversion, while the numerator is adjusted to add back after-tax interest expense for the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, shares related to the convertible notes issued were not included in the Company’s diluted EPS calculation. In accordance with the terms of the convertible notes and settlement options available to the Company, no shares would have been delivered to investors of the convertible notes ~~upon assumed conversion~~ based on the Company’s common stock price during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019.~~

~~In June 2019,~~as the conversion price exceeded the market price of the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock which was completed in March 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had repurchased 12,661,581 shares of common stock totaling $200.0 million as part of previously announced share repurchase programs. The Company’s Board of Directors had previously approved the repurchase of $150.0 million in shares of common stock in 2018, all of which were repurchased in the year ended December 31, 2018. The repurchased shares were recorded as treasury stock and reduced the total number of common shares outstanding.stock.

The following tables show the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019.~~2020.

* Investments in U.S. Government agency and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises

The Company had 1 CMO and 1 corporate security ~~and 3 municipal securities~~ that were in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer with fair values ~~totaling $3.5 million~~of $4 thousand and ~~$12.8~~$4.3 million, respectively as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. With the adoption of CECL, the length of time that the fair value of investment securities have been less than amortized cost is not considered when assessing for credit impairment.

OnWith the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, the ~~Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and implemented the~~ CECL methodology ~~for allowance for credit losses on its investment securities available for sale. The new CECL methodology replaces~~replaced the other-than-temporary impairment model that ~~previously~~previously existed. The Company did not have a day 1 allowance impact attributable to its investment securities portfolio and did not have an allowance for credit losses as of June 30, ~~2020~~.2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost of its investment securities available for sale. Accrued interest receivable for investment securities available for sale at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020, totaled ~~$4.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively.~~$4.7 million.

The Company evaluates securities in unrealized loss position for impairment related to credit losses on at least a quarterly basis. Securities in unrealized loss positions are first assessed as to whether we intend to sell, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If one of the criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through current earnings. For securities that do not meet these criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value resulted from credit losses or other factors. In evaluating whether a credit loss exists, the Company has set up an initial filter for impairment triggers. Once the quantitative filters have been triggered, the securities are placed on a watch list and an additional assessment is performed to identify whether a credit impairment exists. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security and the issuer, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost ~~basis of the security.~~basis. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. ~~Any impairment~~Unrealized losses that ~~has~~have not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. NaN allowance for credit losses for available for sale securities was recorded at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Approximately ~~95%~~91% of the Company’s investment portfolio at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 consisted of securities that were issued by U.S. Government agency and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises. Although a government guarantee exists on these investments, these entities are not legally backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government, and the current support they receive is subject to a cap as part of the agreement entered into in 2008. Nonetheless, at this time we do not foresee any set of circumstances in which the government would not fund its commitments on these investments as the issuers are an integral part of the U.S. housing market in providing liquidity and stability. Therefore, we concluded that a zero allowance approach for these investment securities is appropriate. The Company had also had 14 asset-backed security, 3 corporate ~~security~~securities, and 65 municipal ~~securities~~bonds in unrealized loss positions at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The Company performed an assessment of ~~these investments~~investment securities in unrealized loss positions for credit impairment and concluded that no0 allowance for credit losses was required at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Net loan fees related to SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans totaled $15.7 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $6.4 million at December 31, 2020 and included fees from the origination of SBA PPP loans net of deferred origination costs.

The loan portfolio consists of 4 segments: real estate, commercial business, residential mortgage, and consumer and other loans. Real estate loans are extended for the purchase and refinance of commercial real estate and are generally secured by first deeds of trust and are collateralized by residential or commercial properties. Commercial business loans are loans provided to businesses for various purposes such as for working capital, purchasing inventory, debt refinancing, business acquisitions, international trade finance activities, and other business related financing needs and also include warehouse lines of credit and SBA ~~Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)~~PPP loans. Residential mortgage loans are extended for personal, family, or household use and are secured by a mortgage or deed of trust. Consumer and other loans consist of home equity, credit card, and other personal loans.

~~On January 1,~~Loans receivable declined $138.9 million from December 31, 2020 ~~the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, or CECL, using the modified retrospective method for all~~to $13.42 billion as of ~~its loans measured at amortized cost. With the adoption of CECL, the Company reassessed its loan portfolio segments and classes of~~June 30, 2021. The decline in loans receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due a $283.0 million decline in warehouse lines of credit, $193.5 million in SBA PPP forgiveness, the return to the sale of SBA guaranteed loans totaling $30.0 million during the second quarter of 2021, and ~~made changes based on~~ the ~~new allowance for credit losses methodology. As a result,~~second quarter of 2021 sale of $119.3 million in hotel/motel loans, most of which were classified as criticized loans. These declines were partially offset by an increase in commercial real estate loans which saw an increase in 2021 loan originations and the ~~Company now discloses~~purchase of $98.3 million in residential mortgage loans ~~as a separate segment and class~~during the second quarter of receivable. Trade finance loans, which were previously disclosed as a distinct segment and class of receivable are now combined with commercial business loans.

Generally, loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal and/or interest payments become 90 days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by regulatory requirements. Loans to customers whose financial conditions have deteriorated are considered for nonaccrual status whether or not the loan is 90 days or more past due. Generally, payments received on nonaccrual loans are recorded as principal reductions. Loans are returned to accrual status only when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. The Company does not recognize interest income while loans are on nonaccrual status.

The tables below represent the recorded investment of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 or more days and still on accrual status by class of loans and broken out by loans with ana recorded ACL and those without a recorded ACL as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~total nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 or more days and still on accrual status by class of loans as of~~ December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, including, but not limited to, current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. Homogeneous loans (i.e., home mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, overdraft loans, express business loans, and automobile loans) are not risk rated and credit risk is analyzed largely by the number of days past due. This analysis is performed at least on a quarterly basis.

The definitions for risk ratings are as follows:

•Pass: Loans that meet a preponderance or more of the Company’s underwriting criteria and evidence an acceptable level of risk.

•Special Mention: Loans that have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

•Substandard: Loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans in this classification have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

•Doubtful: Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or repayment in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company completed the sale of $119.3 million in hotel/motel loans. The sale consisted of loans with elevated credit risk or were likely to exhibit credit issues in the future. Of the $119.3 million in commercial real estate loans sold, $68.4 million were rated special mention and $33.6 million were rated substandard prior to being sold. The loans were sold at a 9.9% discount to amortized cost. The Company charged off $11.8 million during the second quarter of 2021 as a result of the note sale, all of which was reserved for in prior quarters.

2223

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans receivable by class, credit quality indicator, and year of origination as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

On January 1, 2020 the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, or CECL which significantly changed the credit losses estimation model for loans and investments. The discussion below relates to the Company’s CECL allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) methodology. For a discussion of the Company’s former incurred loss allowance for loan losses methodology, please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

CECL. The Company calculates its ACL by estimating expected credit losses on a collective basis for loans that share similar risk characteristics. Loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated for credit losses on an individual basis. The Company uses a combination of a modeled and non-modeled approach that incorporates current and future economic conditions to estimate lifetime expected losses on a collective basis. The Company uses Probability of Default (“PD”), Loss Given Default (“LGD”), and Exposure at Default (“EAD”) methodologies with quantitative factors and qualitative considerations in calculation of the allowance for credit losses for collectively assessed loans. The Company uses a reasonable and supportable period of 2 years at which point loss assumptions revert back to historical loss information by means of 1 year reversion period.

The ACL for the Company’s construction, credit card, and certain consumer loans is calculated based on a non-modeled approach utilizing historical loss rates to estimate losses. A non-modeled approach was chosen for these loans as fewer data points exist which could result in high levels of estimated loss volatility under a modeled approach. In aggregate, non-modeled loans represented less than 3% of the Company’s total loan portfolio as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

~~With the adoption of CECL, the Company formed an~~The Company’s Economic Forecast Committee (“EFC”) ~~to review~~reviews economic forecast scenarios that are incorporated in the Company’s ACL. The EFC reviews multiple scenarios provided to the Company by an independent third party and chooses a single scenario that best aligns with management’s expectation of future economic conditions. The forecast scenario contains certain macroeconomic variables that are incorporated into the Company’s modeling process, including GDP, unemployment rates, interest rates, and ~~housing~~commercial real estate prices. As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company chose a forecast scenario that incorporates the effect of the ~~recent~~ COVID-19 pandemic and the expected economic recovery into estimates of future economic conditions. The ~~scenario assumes a large decline in GDP and~~forecast improved considerably compared to forecasts used during the first quarter of 2021 with an increase in unemployment for the first half of 2020 followed by a return to GDP growth in the second half of 2020, while unemployment remains slightly elevated through 2023. Subsequent to the completion of the ACL calculation as of June 30, 2020, the Company received updated macroeconomic forecast scenarios in July 2020, which reflects slightly lower projected GDP growth and a large increase in projected commercial real estate prices combined with a reduction in unemployment, particularly for periods in 2021 and 2022. The forecast improvement reflect the ~~third quarter~~current and projected effects of ~~2020 followed by slightly higher GDP growth in~~government stimulus packages, ongoing COVID-19 vaccinations, and the ~~subsequent quarters. Overall~~reopening of many businesses throughout the updated projections were not significantly changed from the projections incorporated into the Company’s ACL calculation. The updated July 2020 forecast scenario information was not reflected in the Company’s ACL as of June 30, 2020, but the Company expects such forecast and further updated forecasts to be reflected in future ACL calculations.United States.

Additionally, in order to systematically quantify the credit risk impact of other trends and changes within the loan portfolio, the Company utilizes qualitative adjustments to the modeled and non-modeled estimated loss approaches. The parameters for making adjustments are established under a Credit Risk Matrix that provides different possible scenarios for each of the factors below. The Credit Risk Matrix and the possible scenarios enable the Bank to qualitatively adjust the Loss Migration Ratio by as much as 25 basis points for each loan type pool. This matrix considers the following seven factors, which are patterned after the guidelines provided under the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, updated to reflect the adoption of CECL:

•Changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge off, and recovery practices;

•Changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio;

•Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff;

•Changes in the trends of the volume and severity of past due loans, classified loans, nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings, and other loan modifications;

•Changes in the quality of the loan review system and the degree of oversight by the Directors;

•The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; and

•The effect of external factors, such as competition, legal requirements, and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated losses in the loan portfolio.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded additional ACL as part of its qualitative assessment to account for the additional risks associated with the increase in loan modifications related to the COVID-19 pandemic and to account for the Company’s concentration of hotel/motel loans which were particularly hard hit by the pandemic.

For loans which do not share similar risk characteristics such as nonaccrual and TDR loans above $500 thousand, the Company evaluates these loans on an individual basis in accordance with ASC 326. These nonaccrual and TDR loans are considered to have different risk profiles than performing loans and therefore are evaluated ~~separately from performing loan pools.~~separately. The Company decided to collectively assess TDRs and nonaccrual loans with balances below $500 thousand along with the performing and accrual loans in order to reduce the operational burden of individually assessing small TDR and nonaccrual loans with immaterial balances. For individually assessed loans, the ACL is measured using either 1) the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; 2) the loan’s observable market price; or 3) the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. For the collateral dependent loans, the Company obtains a new appraisal to determine the fair value of collateral. The appraisals are based on an “as-is” valuation. To ensure that appraised values remain current, the Company either obtains updated appraisals every twelve months from a qualified independent appraiser or an internal evaluation of the collateral is performed by qualified personnel. If the third party market data indicates that the value of the collateral property has declined since the most recent valuation date, management adjusts the value of the property downward to reflect current market conditions. If the fair value of the collateral is less than the amortized balance of the loan, the Company recognizes an ACL with a corresponding charge to the provision for credit losses.

The Company maintains a separate ACL for its off-balance sheet unfunded loan commitments. The Company uses a funding rate to allocate the allowance to undrawn exposures. This funding rate is used as a credit conversion factor to capture how much undrawn lines of credit can potentially become drawn at any point. ~~Funding~~The funding rate is determined based on a lookback period of 8

quarters. Credit loss is not estimated for off-balance sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

Under certain circumstances, the Company provides borrowers relief through loan modifications. These modifications are either temporary in nature (“temporary modifications”) or are more substantive. The temporary modifications generally consist of interest only payments for a three to six month period, whereby principal payments are deferred. At the end of the modification period, the remaining principal balance is re-amortized based on the original maturity date. ~~Loans subject to temporary modifications are generally downgraded to Special Mention or Substandard.~~ At the end of the modification period, the loan either 1) returns to the original contractual terms; 2) is further modified and accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring in accordance with ASC 310-10-35; or 3) is disposed of through foreclosure or liquidation.

TDR loans are individually evaluated in accordance with ASC 310 and ASC 326. The concessions may be granted in various forms, including reduction in the stated interest rate, reduction in the amount of principal amortization, forgiveness of a portion of a loan balance or accrued interest, or extension of the maturity date. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed on the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on their debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Bank’s internal underwriting policy. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, total TDR loans were ~~$58.7~~$88.5 million, compared to ~~$46.7~~$51.6 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

AsThe balance of loans with modified terms due to COVID-19 as of June 30, ~~2020, the Company had $3.12 billion loans with COVID-19 related loan modifications, most of which were modified during the second quarter of 2020.~~2021 totaled $318.7 million. The majority of these loans were modified in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act. The CARES Act provides banks the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDR for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19 if (i) the loan modification is made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of ~~December 31, 2020~~January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the coronavirus emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. As such, all modified loans that met the criteria outlined within Section 4013 of the CARES Act were not classified as TDR loans as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021 and December 31, 2020, unless the loans were TDR prior to the COVID-19 modification or borrowers were identified to be experiencing financial difficulty prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, real estate loans accounted for ~~more than 90%~~approximately 85% of the loans modified due to hardship from the COVID-19 pandemic. The modifications ~~mostly~~ consisted of full payment deferrals, interest only payments, and a hybrid of full payment deferrals for ~~three~~a period of time followed by interest only payments. The modifications were granted mostly for periods from 3 to 9 months (see “COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications” in the Financial Condition section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for more information).

TDR loans on accrual status are comprised of loans that were accruing at the time of restructuring and for which the Company anticipates full repayment of both principal and interest under the restructured terms. TDR loans that are on nonaccrual status can be returned to accrual status after a period of sustained performance, generally determined to be six months of timely payments as modified. Sustained performance includes the periods prior to the modification and if the prior performance met or exceeded the modified terms. TDR loans on accrual status at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were comprised of 3237 commercial real estate loans totaling ~~$31.2~~$42.6 million, 3622 commercial business loans totaling ~~$12.7~~$8.6 million, and 1815 consumer and other loans totaling ~~$156~~$191 thousand. TDR loans on accrual status at December 31, ~~2019~~2020 were comprised of 1533 commercial real estate loans totaling ~~$23.7~~$25.8 million, 2725 commercial business loans totaling ~~$11.8~~$11.4 million, and 1216 consumer and other loans totaling ~~$200~~$172 thousand. The Company expects that TDR loans on accrual status as of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, which were all performing in accordance with their restructured terms, to continue to comply with the restructured terms because of the reduced principal or interest payments on these loans. TDR loans that were restructured at market interest rates and had sustained performance as agreed under the modified loan terms may be reclassified as non-TDR after each year end but are reserved for under ASC 310-10.

The Company recorded an allowance totaling ~~$4.8~~$26.8 million and ~~$3.1~~$4.8 million for TDR loans as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

7. Leases

~~On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, using the modified retrospective approach under~~ ~~ASC 842~~ ~~and recorded $64.2 million in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets at adoption.~~ The Company’s operating leases are real estate leases which are comprised of bank branch locations, loan production offices, and office spaces with remaining lease terms ranging from 1 to 1110 years as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Certain lease arrangements contain extension options which are typically around 5 years. As these extension options are not generally considered reasonably certain of exercise, they are not included in the lease term.

At June 30, 2021, ROU assets and related liabilities were $47.8 million and $52.2 million, respectively. At December 31, 2020, ROU assets and related liabilities were ~~$55.3~~$47.7 million and ~~$57.7~~$52.0 million, respectively. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the short term operating lease liability totaled ~~$13.4~~$12.7 million and the long-term operating lease liability totaled ~~$44.2~~$39.5 million. The Company defines short-term operating lease liabilities as liabilities due in twelve months or less and long term lease liabilities are defined as liabilities that are due in more than twelve months at the end of each reporting period. The Company did not have any finance leases at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. During the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company extended 49 leases and entered into 0 new lease contracts. Lease ~~extensions were for~~extension terms ranged from three to five years ~~each~~ and the Company reassessed the ROU assets and lease liabilities related to these leases.

Operating lease ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. Operating lease expense, which is comprised of amortization of the ROU asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in occupancy expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s occupancy expense also includes variable lease costs which is comprised of the Company's share of actual costs for utilities, common area maintenance, property taxes, and insurance that are not included in lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. Variable lease costs can also include rent escalations based on changes to indices, such as the Consumer Price Index, where the Company estimates future rent increases and records the actual difference to variable costs.

The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to present value lease payments in order to recognize a ROU asset and the related lease liability. The Company calculates its incremental borrowing rate by adding a spread to the FHLB borrowing interest rate at a given period.

The table below summarizes the Company’s net lease cost:

The carrying value of Debentures at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~$103.6~~$104.8 million and ~~$103.0~~$104.2 million, respectively. At June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, acquired Debentures had remaining discounts of ~~$26.3~~$25.1 million and ~~$26.9~~$25.7 million, respectively. The carrying balance of Debentures is net of remaining discounts and includes common trust securities.

The Company’s investment in the common trust securities of the issuer trusts was $3.9 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 and is included in other assets. Although the subordinated debt issued by the trusts are not included as a component of stockholders’ equity in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, the debt is treated as capital for regulatory purposes. The Company’s trust preferred security debt issuances (less common trust securities) are includable in Tier 1 capital up to a maximum of 25% of capital on an aggregate basis as they were grandfathered in under BASEL III. Any amount that exceeds 25% qualifies as Tier 2 capital.

Convertible Notes

In 2018, the Company issued ~~$200~~$217.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. Subsequently on June 7, 2018, an additional $17.5 million in convertible notes were issued as part of the initial offering over-allotment option. In total, the Company issued $217.5 million in convertible notes in 2018. The convertible notes can be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial rate of 45.0760 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $22.18 per share of common stock which represents a premium of ~~22.5%~~22.50% to the closing stock price on the date of the pricing of the notes). Holders of the convertible notes have the option to convert all or a portion of the notes at any time on or after February 15, 2023. Prior to February 15, 2023, the convertible notes cannot be converted unless under certain specified scenarios. The convertible notes can be called by the Company, in part or in whole, on or after May 20, 2023 for 100% of the principal amount in cash. Holders of the convertible notes also have the option to put the notes back to the Company on May 15, 2023, May 15, 2028, or May 15, 2033 for 100% of the principal amount in cash. The convertible notes can be settled in cash, stock, or a combination of stock and cash at the option of the Company.

~~In accordance with accounting principles, the~~The convertible notes issued by the Company were initially separated into a debt component and an equity component which represents the stock conversion option. The present value of the convertible notes was calculated based on a discount rate of 4.25%, which represented the current offering rate for similar types of debt without conversion options. ~~The effective life of the convertible notes was estimated to be five years based on the first call and put date.~~ The difference between the principal amount of the notes and the present value was recorded as the convertible note discount and additional paid-in capital. The issuance costs related to the offering were also allocated into a debt component to be capitalized, and an equity component in the same percentage allocation of debt and equity of the convertible note.

On January 1, 2021, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 and under the modified retrospective approach. Subsequently, the Company accounts for its convertible notes as a single debt instrument. At the adoption of ASU 2020-06, portions previously allocated to equity and the remaining convertible notes discount were both reversed. The reversal of the equity portions of the convertible notes totaled $18.3 million, net of taxes which was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 resulted in a $10.7 million net adjustment to beginning retained earnings.

11. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company offers a loan hedging program to certain loan customers. Through this program, the Company originates a variable rate loan with the customer. The Company and the customer will then enter into a fixed interest rate swap. Lastly, an identical offsetting swap is entered into by the Company with a correspondent bank. These “back-to-back” swap arrangements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to book a variable rate loan, while providing the customer with a contract for fixed interest payments. In these arrangements, the Company’s net cash flow is equal to the interest income received from the variable rate loan originated with the customer. These customer swaps are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities. The changes in fair value is recognized in the income statement as other income and fees.

At June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, interest rate swaps related to the Company’s loan hedging program that were outstanding are presented in the following table:

~~The~~At June 30, 2021, the Company ~~has 1~~had risk participation ~~agreement~~agreements with an outside counterparty for an interest rate swap related to a loan in which it is a participant. The risk participation agreement provides credit protection to the financial institution should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract. Risk participation agreements are credit derivatives not designated as hedges. Credit derivatives are not speculative and are not used to manage interest rate risk in assets or liabilities. Changes in the fair value in credit derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. The fee received, less the estimate of the loss for credit exposure, was recognized in earnings at the time of the transaction. At June 30, 2021, the notional amount of the risk participation agreements sold was $111.4 million with a credit valuation adjustment of $64 thousand. At December 31, 2020, the notional amount of the risk participation agreement sold was ~~$63.2~~$112.8 million with a credit valuation adjustment of ~~$223~~$398 thousand.

As part of the overall liability management, the Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to help manage interest rate risk positions. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps do not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The exchange of cash flows is determined by reference to the notional amounts and the other terms of the interest rate swap agreements.

The Company had 1 existing interest rate swap agreement as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 with a notional amount of ~~$100~~$100.0 million designated as cash flow hedges of certain LIBOR-based debt. The swap was entered into during the second quarter of 2020 and was determined to be fully effective during the period presented. ~~Therefore, 0 amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income.~~ The aggregate fair value of the swap is recorded in derivative ~~assets~~liabilities with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income. The ~~amount included~~gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ~~would~~(“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into interest expense and interest income in the period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to interest rate swap derivatives will be reclassified to ~~current earnings over~~interest income and interest expense as interest payments are received or paid on the ~~original life of the hedged item should the hedge no longer be considered effective.~~Company’s derivatives. The Company expects the hedge to remain fully effective during the remaining term of the swap. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company reclassified $73 thousand and $139 thousand, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company reclassified $139 thousand from accumulated comprehensive income to interest income.

The Company enters into various stand-alone mortgage-banking derivatives in order to hedge the risk associated with the fluctuation of interest rates. Changes in fair value are recorded as mortgage banking revenue. Residential mortgage loans funded with interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors are considered derivatives. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had approximately ~~$131.1~~$26.2 million in interest rate lock commitments and total forward sales commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans. At December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had approximately ~~$10.5~~$43.8 million in interest rate lock commitments and total forward sales commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk that are used to meet the financing needs of customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, commercial letters of credit, and commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as the Company does for extending loan facilities to customers. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on the Company’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. The types of collateral that the Company may hold can vary and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing properties.

Commitments at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 are summarized as follows:


		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019			June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal claims. The Company has reviewed all legal claims against the Company with counsel and has taken into consideration the views of such counsel as to the potential outcome of the claims. Loss contingencies for all legal claims totaled ~~$1.2 million~~$25 thousand at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$440 thousand~~$1.3 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. It is reasonably possible that the Company may incur losses in addition to the amounts currently accrued. However, at this time, the Company is unable to estimate the range of additional losses that are reasonably possible because of a number of factors, including the fact that certain of these litigation matters are still in their early stages and involve claims that the Company believes has little to no merit. The Company has considered these and other possible loss contingencies and does not expect the amounts to be material to the consolidated financial statements.

13. Goodwill, Intangible Assets, and Servicing Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the sum of the estimated fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less the estimated fair value of the liabilities assumed. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. At December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company assessed the qualitative factors related to intangible assets and goodwill for the year to determine whether it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the Company was less than its carrying amount. As the Company operates as single business unit, goodwill impairment is assessed based on the Company as a whole. Based on the analysis of these factors, management determined that it was more-likely-than-not that intangible assets were not impaired and that the fair value of the Company exceeded the carrying value. Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes and is not tax deductible.

Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, economic forecasts for future economic performance has deteriorated substantially. In addition, U.S. equity markets experienced a significant decline since the first quarter of 2020. In line with these trends, the Company’s stock price also experienced a large reduction during the six months ended June 30, 2020 where it continued to trade below the Company’s tangible book value. These factors contributed to the Company performing an interim goodwill impairment analysis during the second quarter of 2020. The Company determined that a Step 1 goodwill impairment analysis was warranted. The Company performed a Step 1 fair value assessment and determined that goodwill was not impaired as ~~of June 30, 2020 as~~ the estimated fair value of the ~~reporting unit~~Company exceeded the book value. As the Company operates as single ~~reporting~~business unit, ~~the fair value of~~goodwill impairment was assessed based on the Company as a ~~whole~~whole. Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes and is not tax deductible.

The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was ~~estimated. Therefore, there~~$464.5 million. There was 0 impairment of goodwill recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

~~The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $464.5 million.~~

Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over their estimated lives ~~which range from~~ ~~seven~~ toor ten years. Amortization expense related to core deposit intangible assets totaled ~~$532~~$510 thousand and ~~$557~~$532 thousand for the three months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The amortization expense related to core deposit intangible assets totaled ~~$1.1~~$1.0 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The following table provides information regarding the core deposit intangibles at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019:~~2020:

Servicing assets are recognized when SBA and residential mortgage loans are sold with the servicing retained by the Company and the related income is recorded as a component of gains on sales of loans. Servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value based on the present value of the contractually specified servicing fee, net of servicing costs, over the estimated life of the loan, using a discount rate. The Company’s servicing costs approximates the industry average servicing costs of 40 basis points. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.

Management periodically evaluates servicing assets for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to the carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on loan type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company did not have a valuation allowance on it servicing assets.

The changes in servicing assets for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019~~2020 were as follows:

14. Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had an income tax provision totaling $17.8 million on pretax income of $71.5 million, representing an effective tax rate of 24.84%, compared with an income tax provision of $9.8 million on pretax income of $36.5 million, representing an effective tax rate of 26.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had an income tax provision totaling $31.7 million on pretax income of $129.2 million, representing an effective tax rate of 24.56%, compared with an income tax provision of $14.3 million on pretax income of $56.9 million, representing an effective tax rate of 25.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had an income tax provision totaling $16.2 million on pretax income of $68.9 million, representing an effective tax rate of 23.55%~~, compared with an income tax provision of $28.7 million on pretax income of $114.1 million, representing an effective tax rate of 25.14%~~ for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The Company reduced its projected annual pre-tax book income for 2020 taking into consideration the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which increased the tax effect of the Company’s affordable housing partnership investment tax credits, reducing the overallincrease in effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020 was primarily due to affordable housing partnership investment tax credits benefit having a lower effect on larger annual projected pre-tax book income.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as state income taxes. The Company had total unrecognized tax benefits of ~~$103 thousand~~$2.8 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$141 thousand at~~ December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, that relate to uncertainties associated with federal and state income tax matters. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company recorded approximately ~~$18~~$323 thousand and ~~$34~~$276 thousand, for accrued interest (0 portion was related to penalties) at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Management believes it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by ~~$103~~$902 thousand in the next twelve months due to a settlement with the state tax authorities.

The statute of limitations for the assessment of income taxes related to the consolidated federal income tax ~~returns~~return is closed for all tax years up to and including ~~2015.~~2016. The expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of income and franchise taxes related to the various state income and franchise tax returns varies by state. ~~New York State Department of Taxation and Finance recently concluded the 2016, 2017, and 2018 examination with no material adjustments.~~ The Company is currently under examination by the New York City Department of Finance for the 2016, 2017 and ~~2017 tax years and State of Ohio Department of Taxation for the 2015, 2016, 2017,~~ 2018 ~~and 2019~~ tax years. While the outcome of ~~these examinations~~the examination is unknown, the Company expects no material adjustments.

Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities (without regard to certain changes to deferred taxes). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the existence of any cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years, the amount of taxes paid in available carry-back years, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. This analysis is updated quarterly and adjusted as necessary. Based on the analysis, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not required as of June 30, ~~2020.~~

15. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date reflecting assumptions that a market participant would use when pricing an asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The fair value inputs of the instruments are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories pursuant to ASC 820:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. The quoted price shall not be adjusted for any blockage factor (i.e., size of the position relative to trading volume).

Level 2 - Pricing inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies, including the use of pricing matrices. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments. Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis are listed as follows:

Securities Available for Sale

The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

The fair values of the Company’s Level 3 securities available for sale were measured using an income approach valuation technique. The primary inputs and assumptions used in the fair value measurement was derived from the security’s underlying collateral, which included discount rate, prepayment speeds, payment delays, and an assessment of the risk of default of the underlying collateral, among other factors. Significant increases or decreases in any of the inputs or assumptions could result in a significant increase or decrease in the fair value measurement.

Equity Investments With Readily Determinable Fair Value

The fair value of the Company’s equity investments with readily determinable fair value is comprised of mutual funds. The fair value for these investments is obtained from unadjusted quoted prices in active markets on the date of measurement and is therefore classified as Level 1.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company offers interest rate swaps to certain loan customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. The Company originates a variable rate loan and enters into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap with the customer. The Company also enters into an offsetting swap with a correspondent bank. These back-to-back agreements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to originate a variable rate loan, while providing a contract for fixed interest payments for the customer. The net cash flow for the Company is equal to the interest income received from a variable rate loan originated with the customer. The fair value of these derivatives is based on a discounted cash flow approach. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value of these derivative contracts, the valuation of interest rate swaps is classified as Level 2.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

Mortgage banking derivative instruments consist of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale contracts that trade in liquid markets. The fair value is based on the prices available from third party investors. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value, the valuation of mortgage banking derivatives is classified as Level 2.

4345

Other Derivatives

Other derivatives consist of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges and ~~sold~~ risk participation agreements. The fair values of these other derivative financial instruments are based upon the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the instruments, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current credit worthiness of the counterparties. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are classified within Level 2. Credit derivatives such as risk participation agreements are valued based on credit worthiness of the underlying borrower which is a significant unobservable input and therefore is classified as Level 3.

Collateral Dependent Loans

The fair values of collateral dependent loans are generally measured for ACL using the practical expedients permitted by ASC 326-20-35-5 including collateral dependent loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation, less costs to sell of 8.5%. Appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and income approach. Adjustment may be made in the appraisal process by the independent appraiser to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans and the underlying collateral. For commercial and industrial and asset backed loans, independent valuations may include a 20-60% discount for eligible accounts receivable and a 50-70% discount for inventory. These result in a Level 3 classification.

OREO

OREO is fair valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon and the asset is transferred to OREO. The value is based primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell of up to 8.5% and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. OREO is reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted to lower of cost or market accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

Loans Held For Sale

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors, or based on recent comparable sales (Level 2 inputs), if available, and if not available, are based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk (Level 3 inputs) or may be assessed based upon the fair value of the collateral, which is obtained from recent real estate appraisals (Level 3 inputs). These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

The Company measures assets and liabilities for its fair value disclosures based on an exit price notion. Although the exit price notion represents the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, the actual price received for a sale of assets or paid to transfer liabilities could be different from exit price disclosed. The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

The carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, savings and other interest bearing demand deposits, equity investments without readily determinable fair values, customer’s and Bank’s liabilities on acceptances, noninterest bearing deposits, short-term debt, secured borrowings and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. The fair value of loans is determined through a discounted cash flow analysis which incorporates probability of default and loss given default rates on an individual loan basis. The discount rate is based on the LIBOR Swap Rate for fixed rate loans, while variable loans start with the corresponding index rate and an adjustment was made on certain loans which considered factors such as servicing costs, capital charges, duration, asset type incremental costs, and use of projected cash flows. Residential real estate loans fair values include Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac prepayment speed assumptions or a third party index based on historical prepayment speeds. Fair value of time deposits is based discounted cash flow analysis using recent issuance rates over the prior three months and a market rate analysis of recent offering rates for retail products. Wholesale time deposits fair values incorporate brokered time deposit offering rates. The fair value of the Company’s debt is based on current rates for similar financing. Fair value for the Company’s convertible notes is based on the actual last traded price of the notes. The fair value of commitments to fund loans represents fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar remaining maturities and is not presented herein. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material to the consolidated financial statements.

17. Stock-Based Compensation

~~On May 23,~~In 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2019 stock-based incentive plan (the “2019 Plan”), which provides for grants of stock options, SARs, restricted stock, performance shares, and performance units to non-employee directors, employees, and potentially consultants of the Company. Stock options may be either incentive stock options (“ISOs”), as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or nonqualified stock options (“NQSOs”). The 2019 Plan replaces the 2016 Plan and stipulates that no further awards shall be made under prior plans. Therefore, future awards will only be issued from the 2019 Plan.

The 2019 Plan provides the Company flexibility to (i) attract and retain qualified non-employee directors, executives, other key employees, and potentially consultants with appropriate equity-based awards to; (ii) motivate high levels of performance; (iii) recognize employee and potentially consultants’ contributions to the Company’s success; and (iv) align the interests of the participants with those of the Company’s stockholders. The 2019 Plan initially had 4,400,000 shares that were available for grant to participants. The exercise price for shares under an ISO may not be less than 100% of fair market value on the date the award is granted under the Code. Similarly, under the terms of the 2019 Plan, the exercise price for SARs and NQSOs may not be less than 100% of fair market value on the date of grant. Performance units are awarded to participants at the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award (after the lapse of the restriction period and the attainment of the performance criteria). All options not exercised generally expire 10 years after the date of grant.

ISOs, SARs, and NQSOs have vesting periods of three to five years and have 10-year contractual terms. Restricted stock, performance shares, and performance units are granted with a restriction period of not less than one year from the grant date for performance-based awards and not more than three years from the grant date for time-based vesting of grants. Compensation expense for awards is recognized over the vesting period.

Under the 2019 Plan, ~~2,903,642~~2,322,103 shares were available for future grants as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

With the exception of the shares underlying stock options and restricted stock awards, the Board of Directors may choose to settle the awards by paying the equivalent cash value or by delivering the appropriate number of shares.

The following is a summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020:~~2021:

~~In 2017, the~~The Company ~~adopted~~maintains the Hope Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which allows eligible employees to purchase the Company’s common shares through payroll deductions which build up between the offering date and the purchase date. At the purchase date, the Company uses the accumulated funds to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock on behalf of the participating employees at a 10% discount to the closing price of the Company’s common shares. The closing price is the lower of either the closing price on the first day of the offering period or the closing price on the purchase date. The dollar amount of common shares purchased under the ESPP must not exceed 20% of the participating employee’s base salary, subject to a cap of $25 thousand in stock value based on the grant date. The ESPP is considered compensatory under GAAP and compensation expense for the ESPP is recognized as part of the Company’s stock-based compensation expense. The compensation expense for the ESPP during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ was ~~$26~~$37 thousand and ~~$29~~$26 thousand, respectively. The compensation expense for the ESPP during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ was ~~$97~~$259 thousand and ~~$125~~$97 thousand, respectively.

The total ~~amount~~amounts charged against income related to stock-based payment arrangements, including the ESPP, ~~was $1.8~~were $2.1 million and ~~$1.5~~$1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, $3.8~~$4.6 million and ~~$2.3~~$3.8 million, respectively, of stock-based payment arrangements were charged against income. The income tax benefit recognized was approximately ~~$485~~$514 thousand and ~~$378~~$485 thousand for the three months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, was approximately ~~$896 thousand~~$1.1 million and ~~$585~~$896 thousand, respectively.

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock option grants was ~~$167~~$21 thousand and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average vesting period of ~~1.17~~0.17 years. Unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock and performance units was ~~$13.2~~$13.5 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average vesting period of ~~1.91~~2.07 years.

18. Regulatory Matters

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s business, financial condition and results of operation, such as restrictions on growth or the payment of dividends or other capital distributions or management fees. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final regulations, which revised their risk-based and leverage capital requirements for banking organizations to meet requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and to implement the Basel III international agreements reached by the Basel Committee. The final rules became effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015 and were subject to a phase-in period through January 1, 2019. The final rules that had an impact on the Company and the Bank include:

•An increase in the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio from 4.00% to 6.00% of risk-weighted assets;

•A new category and a required 4.50% of risk-weighted assets ratio was established for “Common Equity Tier 1” as a subset of Tier 1 capital limited to common equity;

•A minimum non-risk-based leverage ratio was set at 4.00%, eliminating a 3.00% exception for higher rated banks;

•Changes in the permitted composition of Tier 1 capital to exclude trust preferred securities, mortgage servicing rights and certain deferred tax assets and include unrealized gains and losses on available for sale debt and equity securities;

•The risk-weights of certain assets for purposes of calculating the risk-based capital ratios are changed for high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans, certain past due non-residential mortgage loans and certain mortgage-backed and other securities exposures; and

•A ~~new additional~~ capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk weighted assets over each of the required capital ratios was added and must be met to avoid limitations on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends, repurchase shares, or pay discretionary bonuses. As of June 30, ~~2020, the capital conservation buffer for the Company stood at 2.50%, and~~2021, the capital ratios for the Company and the Bank were ~~sufficient to meet~~in excess of all regulatory minimum capital ratios with the ~~fully phased-in~~addition of the conservation buffer.

~~With the adoption of the~~ ~~CECL standard~~ onOn January 1, 2020, the Company ~~recorded~~adopted ASU 2016-13 and implemented the CECL methodology. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, federal regulatory agencies published a ~~Day~~final rule that provides the option to delay the cumulative effect of the day 1 ~~adjustment, net~~impact of ~~taxes to retained earnings totaling $18.8 million. In accordance~~CECL adoption on regulatory capital, along with 25% of the ~~revised~~change in the adjusted allowance for credit losses (as computed for regulatory ~~CECL transition guidance, the~~capital purposes which excludes PCD loans), for two years, followed by a three-year phase-in period. The Company has elected ~~to defer~~ the ~~impact of~~five-year transition period consistent with the ~~adoption of CECL for two years, at which time~~final rule issued by the ~~impact will be phased-in over a three year period.~~federal regulatory agencies.

As of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the most recent regulatory notification categorized the Bank as “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To generally be categorized as “well-capitalized”, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notification from regulators that management believes has changed the institution’s category.

19. Revenue Recognition

With the adoption of ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606), the Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as fees associated with mortgage servicing rights, financial guarantees, derivatives, and certain credit card fees are also out of scope of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as deposit related fees, wire transfer fees, and certain OREO related net gains or expenses. However, the recognition of these revenue streams for the Company did not change significantly upon adoption of Topic 606. Noninterest revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 are discussed below.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts and Wire Transfer Fees

Service charges on noninterest and interest bearing deposit accounts consist of monthly service charges, customer analysis charges, non-sufficient funds (“NSF”) charges, and other deposit account related charges. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis charges and monthly service charges is generally satisfied, and the related revenue is recognized over the period in which the service is provided. NSF charges, other deposit account related charges, and wire transfer fees are transaction based, and therefore the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point of the transaction, and related revenue recognized at that point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Service charges on deposit accounts and wire transfers are summarized below:

OREO Income (Expense)

OREO are often sold in transactions that, under ASC 606, may not be considered a contract with a customer because the sale of the asset may not be an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. However, sales of nonfinancial assets, including in-substance nonfinancial assets, should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 610-20, “Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets”, which requires the Company to apply certain measurement and recognition concepts of ASC 606. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the sale of a real estate property, along with any associated gain or loss, when control of the property transfers to the buyer. For sales of existing real estate properties, this generally will occur at the point of sale. When the Company finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Company must assess whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. Application of the new revenue recognition standard does not materially change the amount and the timing of the gain/loss on sale of OREO and other nonfinancial assets. Further, there were no open OREO/nonfinancial assets sale contracts at the adoption date that required an evaluation under Topic 606. ~~The~~For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a net ~~loss~~gains on sales of OREO in the amounts of $27 thousand and $13 thousand, respectively. For the three and six ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized net losses on sale of OREO in the amount of $20 thousand and $81 thousand, ~~for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020,~~ respectively. ~~For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a loss on sale of OREO in the amount of $16 thousand and $13 thousand, respectively.~~

20. Subsequent Events

On July 22, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new stock repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $50 million of its common stock. Stock repurchases through the new plan may be executed through various means, including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or by other means as determined by the Company and in accordance with SEC rules and regulations.

The Company has evaluated the effects of events that have occurred subsequent to June 30, 2021 through the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. Other than the event described above, there have been no material events that would require disclosure in the consolidated financial statements or in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

GENERAL

We offer a full range of commercial and retail banking loan and deposit products through our wholly-own subsidiary Bank of Hope. We have 5853 banking offices in California, New York/New Jersey, Illinois, Washington, Texas, Virginia, and Alabama. We have loan production offices located in Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Portland, Seattle, Fremont, and in Southern California. We offer our banking services through our network of banking offices and loan production offices to our customers who typically are small to medium-sized businesses in our market areas. We accept deposits and originate a variety of loans including real estate loans, commercial business loans, residential mortgage loans, SBA loans, and consumer loans.

Our principal business involves earning interest on loans and investment securities that are funded primarily by customer deposits, wholesale deposits, and other borrowings. Our operating income and net income are derived primarily from the difference between interest income received from interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities and, to a lesser extent, from fees received in connection with servicing loan and deposit accounts and income from the sale of loans. Our major expenses are the interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, provisions for ~~loan~~credit losses and general operating expenses, which primarily consist of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy costs, and other operating expenses. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control, such as changes in the national economy and in the related monetary policies of the FRB, inflation, unemployment, consumer spending and political changes and events. We cannot predict the impact that these factors and future changes in domestic and foreign economic and political conditions might have on our ~~performance.~~business, financial condition, and results of operations.

COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations and any further impact will depend on future developments that cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, the economic implications of the same, effectiveness of vaccines being distributed, and the continued actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially and negatively impacted the United States economy and disrupted global supply ~~chains, considerably lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and materially increased unemployment levels.~~chains. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in permanent and temporary closures of countless businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in most states and communities. AsAlthough the United States had seen a decline in new cases of COVID-19 as a result of the vaccination efforts underway, many parts of the world have seen a rise in new cases and new variants of the virus pose a potential risk to overall recovery from the pandemic.

The demand for our products and services has been and ~~likely will~~may continue to be ~~significantly~~ adversely impacted, which ~~could~~would continue to materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, the pandemic could result in the recognition of amplified credit losses in our loan portfolios and increases in our allowance for credit ~~losses, particularly if businesses are closed.~~losses. Similarly, because of ~~changing~~ economic volatility and uncertain market conditions, we may be required to recognize impairments on goodwill or impairment on other financial instruments we hold. Our business operations may also be further disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, because of challenges arising from circumstances related to working from home, illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic, and we have already temporarily closed certain of our branches. In response to the pandemic, we have also suspended residential property foreclosure sales, evictions, and involuntary automobile repossessions, and are offering payment deferrals and other expanded assistance for credit card, mortgage and small business lending customers, and future governmental actions may require these and other types of customer-related responses. In addition, we may take capital actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, that cannot be predicted, including the continued effectiveness of vaccines, the scope and duration of the pandemic, the impact of the COVID-19 Delta and other new variants, the economic implications of the same, and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.

On March 27, 2020, President Donald Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act in response to the global pandemic. The CARES Act provided approximately $2.2 trillion in emergency economic relief funds, expanded ~~the~~ SBA lending ~~through the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”),~~ and ~~provides~~provided temporary relief of certain modifications from TDR classification. In ~~response, we~~December 2020, the President signed the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 which included another $900 billion in stimulus relief for the COVID-19 pandemic to provide emergency economic relief funds, further expanded SBA lending with additional funds for SBA PPP, and provided an extension for the relief of certain modifications from TDR classification. We have ~~begun actively assisting~~assisted many of our customers in ~~taking advantage~~availing themselves of certain provisions of the ~~concessions offered through the~~ CARES Act ~~through this difficult time~~ by providing loan modifications to borrowers consisting of mostly ~~initial~~ payment deferrals ~~for up to three months and we funded $480.1 million in SBA PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020~~ (see “COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications” in the Financial Conditions section of the MD&A for more information). We also funded $480.1 million in SBA PPP loans in 2020 and funded $324.5 million in second round PPP loans during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, all of our regulatory capital ratios for Hope Bancorp and the ~~Holding Company and~~ Bank were in excess of the minimum requirements set by our regulators. While we currently believe that we have sufficient excess capital and liquidity to withstand the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, further economic deterioration or an extended recession could adversely impact our capital and liquidity positions.

Pandemic Response Plan

With the onset of the COVID-19 virus, we activated a Pandemic Response Plan in January 2020, in advance of the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the Pandemic Response Plan, a Pandemic Response Team and a Business Continuity Program Team were formed which closely monitor the COVID-19 situation, identifying issues and developing responses to reduce risks related to COVID-19 to our customers, employees, and communities. As part of our overall efforts to help contain the spread of the virus, we made a number of adjustments in our branch ~~operations:~~

•~~Nationwide, we reduced the operating hours;~~

•~~For some of~~operations and regularly communicate with our ~~branches with drive-thru service facilities, we limited in-branch services by appointment only;~~

•~~We have also temporarily closed a number of branches that are in close proximity~~staff to ~~another branch location;~~

•We implemented social distancing procedures limiting the number of customers in a branch at a given time; requiring the use of facial masks and hand sanitizers by all customers entering a branch, and added aisle lines to help guide customers in maintaining a minimum of 6 feet of separation;

•~~We limited operations to every other teller station as warranted to maintain the minimum 6-feet distance;~~

•~~We installed sneeze guards at all teller stations and customer service areas;~~

•~~We have provided our branch staff with facial masks, as well as face shields; and~~

•~~We implemented enhanced cleaning and disinfecting protocols at all of our branches.~~

~~We have also implemented a number of changes to our back-office operations including:~~

•~~Enabling the majority of our employees with remote work capabilities and implementing a remote rotation strategy with the general goal of having approximately 50%~~keep them apprised of the ~~department staff working onsite and the remainder working remotely;~~

•~~In-person meetings have been prohibited to the extent possible;~~

•~~In line with social distancing guidelines, employee workstations have been temporarily modified to allow for a minimum separation of approximately six feet between each employee;~~

•~~Common break areas have been closed; and~~

•~~We have implemented enhanced cleaning and disinfecting protocols for our non-branch locations.~~

latest information. The goal of the Pandemic Response Plan is to protect the health of our customers, employees, and communities while continuing to meet the needs of our customers. The Pandemic Response Team and Business Continuity Program Team will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and take additional actions in an effort to ensure the safe continued operations of the Bank.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net Interest Income

A principal component of our earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits, borrowed funds, and convertible notes. Net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets is referred to as the net interest margin. The net interest spread is the yield on average interest earning assets less the cost of average interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income is affected by changes in the balances of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and changes in the yields earned on interest earning assets and the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 with the Three Months Ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020

Net interest income before provision for credit losses was ~~$109.8~~$126.6 million for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~$117.2~~$109.8 million for the same period of ~~2019, a decrease~~2020, an increase of ~~$7.4~~$16.8 million, or ~~6.3%~~15.3%. The ~~decrease~~increase in net interest income was due to the reduction in interest ~~income on loans and investments securities~~expense for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 compared to the second quarter of ~~2019~~2020 offset partly by a decrease in ~~deposit~~ interest ~~expense.~~income.

6265

Interest income for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$145.1~~$140.2 million, a decrease of ~~$28.4~~$4.9 million, or ~~16.4%~~3.3%, compared to ~~$173.5~~$145.1 million for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributable to the decline in interest rates, which impacted our variable rate loans and the interest rates on new loan ~~originations. The FOMC reduced the federal funds target rate by 25 basis points each~~originations and a decline in ~~July, September, and October 2019. More recently, as~~discount accretion income on acquired loans. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact toon the U.S. economy, the FOMC lowered the target federal funds rate by a total of 1.50% in March 2020 to 0.00%-0.25%. The reduction in interest rates in March 2020 had a large impact on our loan yields and interest income as our variable rate loans repriced to lower interest rates and new loans were originated at lower rates. Interest income on our investment securities also declined due to the repricing of variable rate investments and the sale and pay-down of higher yielding securities in combination with the purchase of lower yielding securities which contributed to the decline in interest income.

Interest expense for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$35.2~~$13.6 million, a decrease of ~~$21.0~~$21.6 million, or ~~37.3%~~61.3%, compared to ~~$56.2~~$35.2 million for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in interest expense was due to the overall decline in our cost of deposits from the repricing of time deposits to lower rates as well as a reduction in rates on money market and NOW accounts. We reduced our ~~deposits~~deposit rates in conjunction with the reduction in rates ~~experienced~~ in ~~2019 and~~March 2020 to reduce our cost of deposits and to ~~help~~ offset ~~some of~~ the decline in loan yields. We expect interest expense to continue to decline for the next 1-2 quarters as higher cost time deposits continue to renew to lower rates. Interest expense on FHLB borrowings declined in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to the pay-down of FHLB borrowings during the third quarter of 2020. With the adoption of ASU 2020-06, interest expense on our convertible notes declined by $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 due to the reduction in non-cash interest expense as we no longer have a discount portion to amortize.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 with the Six Months Ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020

Net interest income before provision for credit losses was ~~$229.1~~$249.2 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~$236.8~~$229.1 million for the same period of ~~2019, a decrease~~2020, an increase of ~~$7.7~~$20.1 million, or ~~3.3%~~8.8%. The ~~decrease~~increase in net interest income was due to the reduction in interest ~~income on loan and investments securities~~expense for the for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the same period of ~~2019~~2020 offset partly by a decrease in ~~deposit~~ interest ~~expense.~~income.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$311.9~~$278.5 million, a decrease of ~~$34.7~~$33.4 million, or ~~10.0%~~10.7%, compared to ~~$346.6~~$311.9 million for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributable to the decline in interest rates, which impacted our variable rate loans and the interest rates on new loan originations.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$82.8~~$29.3 million, a decrease of ~~$26.9~~$53.5 million, or ~~24.5%~~64.6%, compared to ~~$109.8~~$82.8 million for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in interest expense was due to the repricing of time deposits to lower rates as well as a reduction in rates on money market and NOW accounts. We expect interest expense to continue to decline in the second half of ~~2020~~2021 as higher cost time deposits continue to renew to lower rates.

Net Interest Margin

Our net interest margin is impacted by the weighted average rates we earn on interest earning assets and pay on interest bearing liabilities and the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments. The net interest margin for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~2.79%~~3.11%, ~~a decrease~~an increase of 5232 basis points from ~~3.31%~~2.79% for the same period of ~~2019. The net~~2020. Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~3.04%~~3.09%, ~~a decrease~~an increase of 315 basis points from ~~3.35%~~3.04% for the for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The ~~decline~~increase in net interest margin for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 was due to decreases in cost of interest bearing deposits, FHLB advances, convertible notes and other borrowings and partially offset by an overall decline in yields on loans and securities available for sale as these earning assets were fully impacted by the decline in ~~loan yields as a result of the decrease in~~ interest rates ~~during the twelve months ended June 30, 2020. Net interest margin~~in March 2020 for ~~the~~ periods in ~~2020~~2021, while only partially impacted for periods in 2020. Cost of interest bearing deposits and other borrowings were also impacted by the ~~large increase~~rate cut in ~~interest bearing cash included~~March 2020 while the reduction in cost of FHLB ~~stock~~advances was mostly due to the pay-down of higher rate FHLB advances in the third quarter of 2020 and ~~other investments. Soon after~~ the ~~declaration~~reduction in the cost of convertible notes was due to the ~~COVID-19 pandemic, we increased our excess liquidity as a precautionary measure which also negatively impacted our net interest margin. This increase is temporary and we expect to reduce most~~adoption of ASU 2020-06 at the ~~excess liquidity we held as~~beginning of ~~June 30, 2020 during the second half of the year.~~2021.

The weighted average yield on loans decreased to 3.98% for the second quarter of 2021 from 4.23% for the second quarter of ~~2020 from 5.32% for the second quarter of 2019.~~2020. The weighted average yield on loans decreased to 3.96% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from 4.64% for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020 from 5.31% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.~~2020. The decrease in loan yields for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the same periods in ~~2019~~2020 was mostly due to the decrease in interest rates experienced in ~~2019 and~~ 2020 and a decline in accretion income on acquired loans. The decrease in interest rates led to a decline in rates on our variable rate loans for new loan originations, which resulted in an overall decline in loan yields. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, variable interest rate loans made up ~~38%~~40% of the loan portfolio and the remaining ~~62%~~60% of the loan portfolio consisted of loans with fixed interest rates. Fixed rate loans include hybrid loans that had fixed interest rates at the end of the period but will eventually change to a variable interest rate after a certain period of time. For the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the average weighted rate on new loan originations was ~~2.86%~~2.95% compared to ~~5.49%~~2.86% for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The ~~decline~~increase in the average weighted rate on new loan originations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 was ~~impacted by the~~due to higher levels of originations of SBA PPP loans for 2020 which all have an interest rate of 1.00%. Excluding SBA PPP loans, the average weighted rate on new loan originations for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was 3.40% compared to 3.77%. for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Discount accretion income on acquired loans was $2.6 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to $3.7 million and $14.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, ~~respectively, compared~~respectively. The decline in discount accretion income was primarily due to ~~$8.6 million and $16.6 million, for~~the payoff of loans during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019, respectively.~~

2020 which resulted in additional discount accretion income. There were no significant payoffs of acquired loans during the three or six months ended June 30, 2021.

The weighted average yield on securities available for sale for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~2.27%~~1.37% compared to ~~2.64%~~2.27% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The weighted average yield on securities available for sale for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~2.38%~~1.39% compared to ~~2.69%~~2.38% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The change in weighted average yield on securities available for sale for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the same periods of ~~2019~~2020 was due to the reduction in interest rates, which impacted our variable rate investments. The decline in yields was also due to fluctuations in the overall investment portfolio yield due to the purchase, sale, pay-downs, and calls/maturities of investment securities during the twelve months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

The weighted average yield on FHLB stock and other investments for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~0.30%~~0.35% compared to ~~2.59%~~0.30% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The weighted average yield on FHLB stock and other investments for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~0.66%~~0.38% compared to ~~2.63%~~0.66% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in weighted average yield on FHLB stock and other investments for the ~~three and~~ six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the same ~~periods~~period of ~~2019~~2020 was due to the decline in interest rates experienced in ~~2019 and~~ 2020. The decline in interest rates led to a decrease in interest earned on interest bearing cash balances at the Federal Reserve, which resulted in a decrease in yield on FHLB stock and other investments. ~~The dividend rate on FHLB stock was also reduced to 5.00% for 2020 compared to a 7.00% dividend rate for 2019.~~

The weighted average cost of deposits for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~0.87%~~0.30%, a decrease of 7557 basis points from ~~1.62%~~0.87% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The weighted average cost of deposits for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~1.09%~~0.33%, a decrease of 5176 basis points from ~~1.60%~~1.09% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The decline in interest rates experienced in ~~2019 and~~ 2020 resulted in a decrease in the weighted average cost of deposits for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the same periods of ~~2019.~~2020. Management reduced rates on most of its deposit products ~~during the second half of 2019 and more recently~~several times in ~~March~~ 2020 in light of the FOMC interest rate cuts and to offset ~~some of~~ the decline in loan yields.

The weighted average cost of FHLB advances for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~1.52%~~1.25%, a decrease of 4027 basis points from ~~1.92%~~1.52% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The weighted average cost of FHLB advances for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~1.65%~~1.23%, ~~an increase~~a decrease of 542 basis points from ~~1.60%~~1.65% for the same period of ~~2019.The~~2020. The decrease in cost of FHLB advances for the ~~second~~three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 was due to higher rate FHLB advances that were prepaid early before maturity during the third quarter of 2020 ~~compared to the second quarter of 2019 was due to the~~combined with an overall decline in FHLB borrowing rates as a result of the decline in interest rates. The increase in cost of FHLB advances for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period of 2019 was due to the accelerated amortization of $1.0 million in premiums for FHLB advances that were paid off during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The amortization of the remaining premiums had the effect of reducing interest expense on FHLB advances, which lowered the overall cost of FHLB advances for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Excluding the impact of the accelerated amortization of $1.0 million of premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2019, the cost of FHLB advances would have declined by 21 basis points compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

~~The carrying balance of our convertible notes are net of discount to be amortized and issuance costs to be capitalized.~~ The weighted average cost of our convertible notes was 2.43% and 2.44% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to 4.64% for ~~both~~the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The cost of our convertible notes for periods in 2021 consisted of the 2.00% coupon rate and non-cash interest expense from the capitalization of issuance cost. The cost of our convertible notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 ~~compared to 4.66%~~also included non-cash interest expense from the amortization of the convertible notes discount. On January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06, which eliminated the discount on our convertible notes and ~~4.69%~~reduced interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019, respectively. The cost of our convertible notes consists of~~2021 by approximately $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, compared to the ~~2.00% coupon rate, the non-cash conversion option rate,~~three and the issuance cost capitalization rate. In 2023, the cost of the convertible notes will decline as the non-cash conversion discount will be fully amortized and the issuance costs will be fully capitalized leaving the coupon rate as the only remaining cost.six months ended June 30, 2020.

The weighted average cost of other borrowings (subordinated debentures) for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~4.77%~~3.84%, a decrease of ~~216~~93 basis points from ~~6.93%~~4.77% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. The weighted average cost of other borrowings for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~5.32%~~3.87%, a decrease of ~~174~~145 basis points from ~~7.06%~~5.32% for the same period of ~~2019.~~2020. Subordinated debentures have variable interest rates that are tied to the three month LIBOR rate. The decline in the three month LIBOR rate ~~during~~for the ~~twelve~~three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 resulted in a decline in the weighted average cost of other borrowings.

Changes in net interest income are a function of changes in interest rates and volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table sets forth information regarding the changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. The total change for each category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities is segmented into the change attributable to variations in volume (changes in volume multiplied by the old rate) and the change attributable to variations in interest rates (changes in rates multiplied by the old volume). Nonaccrual loans are included in average loans used to compute this table.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses reflects our judgment of the current period cost associated with credit risk inherent in our loan portfolio. The provision for credit losses for each period is dependent upon many factors, including loan growth, net charge offs, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquencies, assessments by management, third parties’ and regulators’ examination of the loan portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral on problem loans, the general economic conditions in our market areas, and future projections of the economy. Specifically, the provision for credit losses represents the amount charged against current period earnings to achieve an allowance for credit losses that, in our judgment, is adequate to absorb probable lifetime losses inherent in our loan portfolio. Periodic fluctuations in the provision for credit losses result from management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; however, actual credit losses may vary in material respects from current estimates. If the allowance for credit losses is inadequate, we may be required to record additional provision, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The negative provision for credit losses for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was $7.0 million, a decrease of $24.5 million from $17.5 million ~~an increase~~ of ~~$16.3 million from $1.2 million~~provision for credit losses for the same period ~~last~~of the prior year. The negative provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was $3.7 million, a decrease of $49.2 million from $45.5 million ~~an increase~~ of ~~$41.3 million from $4.2 million~~provision for credit losses for the same period ~~last~~of the prior year. The ~~increase~~overall decrease in provision for credit losses for periods in ~~2020~~2021 compared to periods in ~~2019~~2020 was due to the ~~implementation of CECL which now estimates credit losses on the life of loans.~~economic recovery and improved economic forecasts for periods in 2021 compared to periods in 2020. In ~~addition,~~2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded additional reserves to reflect the economic decline that ~~continues to impact~~impacted the global economy, including additional risks associated with the large amount of loans that were modified ~~during the second quarter of 2020~~ as a result of the hardships experienced by borrowers due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The balance of loans modified due to COVID-19 was approximately 24.2% of the total portfolio as of June 30, 2020, but has declined significantly to approximately 2.4% of the total loan portfolio as of June 30, 2021. The decline in COVID-19 modified loans and overall reduction of credit risk in our loan portfolio also contributed to the decline in provision for credit losses for periods in 2021 compared to periods in 2020.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income is primarily comprised of service fees on deposit accounts, international service fees (fees received on trade finance letters of credit), loan servicing fees, wire transfer fees, swap fee income, net gains on sales of loans, net gains on sales and calls of securities available for sale, and other income which includes earnings on bank owned life insurance, ~~swap fee income,~~ changes in the fair value of our equity investments with readily determinable fair value, and other miscellaneous income. Noninterest income for the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$11.2~~$11.1 million compared to ~~$12.3~~$11.2 million for the second quarter of ~~2019,~~2020, a decrease of ~~$1.0 million,~~$164 thousand or ~~8.5%~~1.5%.

The decrease in service fees on deposit accounts for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 was due to a decrease in customer analysis fees and non-sufficient funds fees collected on deposit accounts. ~~As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic~~Customer analysis fees declined by $724 thousand and ~~the stay at home orders issued by many states, deposit activity~~$1.9 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020 was greatly reduced~~2021 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020 due to our risk management decision to discontinue our relationships with customers in the check cashing industry.

Loan servicing fees, net represents income earned from servicing SBA and residential mortgage loans that were previously sold. We retain servicing on ~~most~~many of the loans that we choose to sell. The decrease in loan servicing fees, net for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020 was due to an increase in payoff of serviced loans for 2021 compared to 2020 while the increase in loan servicing fees, net for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 was due to a reduction in payoffs of serviced loans. ~~Payoffs~~The payoff of serviced loans ~~were higher during the six months ended June 30, 2019, which resulted~~results in the full amortization of the remaining servicing asset, which is recorded as a reduction to loan servicing fee ~~income, net.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, we stopped the practice of regularly selling the guaranteed portion of SBA loans due to the reduction in premium rates paid in the secondary market. However, recently premiums paid for SBA guaranteed loans has increased significantly due to the low interest rate environment and increased liquidity held by banks and other financial institutions. As a result, we decided to return to the practice of regularly selling SBA guaranteed loans. During the second quarter of 2021, we sold $30.0 million in SBA guaranteed loans and recorded $2.4 million in net gains on sales of SBA loans. The SBA loans that we sold were all seasoned loans that were originated in 2018 and 2019. We chose to focus on selling seasoned loans first as these loans have higher prepayment risk compared to newly originated loans. We did not have any net gains on sales of SBA loans in 2020.

Net gains on sales of other loans represents net gains from the sale of residential mortgage loans. Residential mortgage loans sold during the second quarter of ~~2020~~2021 totaled ~~$67.4~~$42.6 million compared to ~~$76.2~~$67.4 million sold during the second quarter of ~~2019.~~2020.

The ~~increase~~decrease in net gains on sales of other loans for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 was due to ~~discount accretion income recognized on~~a decrease in residential mortgage loans sold ~~during the six months ended June 30, 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, we sold $38.9 million~~for periods in residential mortgage loans previously classified as held for investment in a bulk sale transaction. Most of the loans sold were acquired loans with remaining discounts, which increased the gain on sale income recognized.

~~Other income and fees increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020~~2021 compared to ~~the same~~ periods ~~of 2019 due to various fees and incomes earned through normal operations.~~ in 2020.

Other income and fees include income from bank owned life insurance, recoveries on acquired loans that were fully charged-off at acquisition, debit card/credit card fee income, fair value changes on our derivatives and equity investments, and other miscellaneous income. Other income and fees decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 due largely to the decline in recoveries on acquired loans that were fully charged-off at acquisition and declines in the fair value of our mortgage derivatives.

The decrease in payroll origination costs was primarily due to the decline in ~~salaries due~~origination costs related to SBA PPP ~~deferred~~loans. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we began utilizing a third party loan on-boarding platform for SBA PPP loans which resulted in a quicker and more efficient underwriting process thereby reducing overall loan origination costs ~~was offset partially by an overall increase in salaries~~compared to the three and six months June 30, 2020. The number of full-time equivalent employees decreased from 1,474 at June 30, 2020 to 1,438 at June 30, 2021.

The decline in advertising and marketing expense reflects reductions in public sponsorship fees as we are no longer the sponsor of the Ladies Professional Golf Association Founders Cup.

Data process and communications expense decreased $313 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 and decreased $638 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Professional fees experienced a decrease of $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 and had a decrease of $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in professional fees for periods in 2020 compared to periods in 2019 was due to decreases in fees related to ~~the implementation of CECL, IT related professional~~litigation fees ~~and internal audit service fees.~~paid to attorneys.

We make investments in affordable housing partnerships and receive Community Reinvestment Act credits and tax credits, which ~~reduce~~reduces our overall effective tax ~~provision~~ rate. Investments in affordable housing partnership expenses are recorded based on benefit schedules of individual investment projects under the equity method of accounting. The benefit schedules show tax loss/deductions investors can take each year. We amortize the initial cost of the investments in affordable housing partnership by tax loss/deductions. This amortization expense is more than offset by both tax credits received, which reduces our tax provision ~~expense. Investments~~expense dollar for dollar, and the tax benefits related to any tax losses generated through the affordable housing project’s expenditures. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, total tax credits related to our investment in affordable housing partnerships was approximately $2.6 million and $5.2 million, respectively. The balance of investments in affordable housing partnerships decreased from ~~$86.7 million at June 30, 2019 to~~ $77.2 million at June 30, ~~2020.~~2020 to $63.8 million at June 30, 2021.

The decrease in FDIC assessment fees ~~have remained largely unchanged.~~for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was due to a decline in assessment fees adjustments related to the balance of brokered deposits. The decline in brokered deposit balances at June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020 resulted in a decline in FDIC assessment adjustments to account for the reduction of risk that results from a lower percentage of brokered deposits.

Credit related expense decreased ~~$188 thousand~~$1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 due largely to a ~~reduction~~decrease in ~~forced insurance expenses.~~expenses related to loan collections.

We recorded a one-time $2.1 million impairment during the second quarter of 2021 related to the disposition of a licensed compliance related software platform. Management decided to utilize a different platform and therefore the remaining carrying balance for the unused software was fully written off.

Other noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2020 remained largely unchanged~~2021 decreased by $861 thousand and $270 thousand, respectively, compared to ~~expenses for~~ the ~~same periods of the prior year.~~three and six months ended June 30, 2020 due to decreases in various expense items.

Income tax provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ was ~~$16.2~~$31.7 million and ~~$28.7~~$16.2 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 24.56% and ~~2019 was~~ 23.55% ~~and 25.14%~~, respectively. The Company reduced its projected annual pre-tax book income for 2020 taking into consideration the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which increased the tax effect of the Company’s affordable housing partnership investment tax credits, reducing the overallincrease in effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020 was primarily due to affordable housing partnership investment tax credits benefit having a lower effect on larger annual projected pre-tax book income.

Financial Condition

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, our total assets were ~~$17.17~~$17.47 billion, an increase of ~~$1.50 billion,~~$363.0 million, or ~~9.6%~~2.1%, from ~~$15.67~~$17.11 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The increase in total assets was due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents ~~loans~~partially offset by a decline in loan receivable ~~and investment securities~~ during the six months ended June 30, 2020. We temporarily increased our cash and cash equivalents from $698.6 million at December 31, 2019 to $1.47 billion at June 30, 2020 as a precautionary measure in anticipation of potential cash outflows from deposit and line of credit draw-downs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Actual outflows of cash were minimal during the second quarter of 2020 and therefore we plan to reduce our excess liquidity in the second half of 2020.2021.

Equity Investments

Total equity investments include equity investments with readily determinable fair values and equity investment without readily determinable fair values. Equity investments at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 totaled ~~$49.9~~$59.0 million, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$779~~$667 thousand, or ~~1.6%~~1.1%, from ~~$49.1~~$59.7 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Equity investments with readily determinable fair values at December 31, 2019 totaled $22.1~~and $27.6 million, ~~also~~respectively, consisting of mutual funds. Changes to the fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values is recorded in other noninterest income.

We also had ~~$27.2~~$31.8 million and ~~$27.0~~$32.1 million in equity investments without readily determinable fair values as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

There were no impairments or observable price changes for equity investments without readily determinable fair values during the ~~three~~six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019.~~2020.

Investment Securities Portfolio

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we had ~~$1.89~~$2.27 billion in available for sale securities compared to ~~$1.72~~$2.29 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The net unrealized gain on the available for sale securities at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$54.3~~$19.6 million compared to a net unrealized gain on securities of ~~$12.1~~$46.2 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The change in unrealized gain on investment securities from December 31, ~~2019~~2020 to June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was due to ~~a decline~~an increase in treasury rates.

During the six months ended June 30, ~~2020, $356.4~~2021, $422.7 million in investment securities were purchased and ~~$222.5~~$397.1 million in investment securities were paid down. ~~There~~For the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no investment securities that matured, were called or ~~sold during the six months ended June 30, 2020.~~sold.

We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 and implemented the CECL methodology for our investment securities available for sale. At the time of adoption, we did not record a day 1 CECL adjustment on our investment securities available for sale as we determined that a credit impairment did not exist. Subsequently, we performed an analysis on our investment portfolio in unrealized loss positions as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and ~~found~~determined that an allowance for credit losses was not required. The majority of our investment portfolio consists of securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, which we determined to have zero loss expectation. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we also had four asset-back securities, three corporate securities, and five municipal ~~securities~~bonds not issued by U.S. Government agencies or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises that were in unrealized loss ~~positions.~~position. Based on our analysis of these ~~investments,~~investment securities, we concluded a credit loss did not exist due to the strength of the issuer, high bond ratings, ~~and/or~~and because we still expect full payment of principal and interest.

Investments in Affordable Housing Partnerships

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we had ~~$77.2~~$63.8 million in investments in affordable housing partnerships compared to ~~$82.6~~$69.5 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The decrease in investments in affordable housing partnerships was due to recorded losses and premium amortizations recorded during the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. Commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships totaled ~~$20.1~~$10.7 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~$28.5~~$15.1 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The decline in commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships during the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was due to cash contributions, which reduced the remaining commitment balances.

Allowance for Credit Losses

On January 1, 2020 the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, or CECL, which significantly changed the credit losses estimation model for ~~loan~~loans and investments. On March 27, 2020, President Donald Trump signed into law the CARES Act in response to the global pandemic. The CARES Act includes a provision that temporarily delays the required implementation date of ASU 2016-13. However, we chose not to elect to delay the adoption of ASU 2016-13 and implemented the CECL methodology as of January 1, 2020. On January 1, 2020, we recorded a $26.2 million day 1 CECL adjustment as a result of adopting the new standard.

The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was ~~$161.8~~$189.5 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses of ~~$94.1~~$206.7 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The ACL was ~~1.26%~~1.41% and 1.52% of loans receivable at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~0.77% of loans receivable at~~ December 31, ~~2019.~~2020, respectively. The ACL to loans receivable ratio does not include non-credit related discount on acquired loans. Total discount on acquired loans at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 totaled ~~$32.5~~$17.5 million and ~~$45.9~~$23.3 million, respectively. ACL on individually evaluated loans increased to ~~$8.9~~$30.6 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 from ~~$3.4~~$7.3 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~

2020. The increase in ACL for individually evaluated loans was primarily due to one large commercial real estate loan which had an ACL of $21.6 million as of June 30, 2021.

ACL coverage ratio for all loan ~~types increased except for commercial business loans~~segments declined as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to December 31, ~~2019.~~2020 except for consumer and other loans. The ~~increase~~decrease in ACL coverage ratio for ~~most~~these loan types was due to ~~the adoption of CECL as we now estimate~~ a ~~lifetime of expected losses compared to losses at a point in time under the previous incurred model. The ACL as of June 30, 2020 also reflects an increase in estimated losses due to the effects of~~much stronger economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting risks associated with a deteriorated economy and an increase in COVID-19 related modifications. Commercial business loans on the other hand experienced a decline in ACL coverage ratio from December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020. The decline in the forecast scenario selected for the ACL ~~coverage ratio for commercial business loans is due to the overall shorter life for~~calculation. The improved forecast had a large positive impact on these loans which resulted in a ~~less estimated losses under~~reduction in required ACL.

The coverage ratio for real estate-commercial loans changed from 1.89% at December 31, 2020 to 1.80% at June 30, 2021 due to improvements in projected forecasts and also due to the ~~CECL model. In addition,~~sale of $119.3 million of hotel/motel loans. Although the ACL for real estate-commercial loans was also impacted by improvements in the projected forecasts, the improvements were partially offset by additional ACL required due to declines in credit quality, particularly the increase in real estate-commercial nonaccrual loans and criticized loans during the first half of 2021. ACL on commercial business loans experienced a decrease ACL coverage at June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020, also due to improved economic forecasts. Most of the consumer and other loans ACL is allocated to our credit card portfolio and the allocated ACL did not significantly change from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021.

Commercial business loans at June 30, ~~2020~~2021, includes ~~$473.9~~$568.8 million in SBA PPP loans which have no associated ACL as the loans are fully guaranteed by the government. ~~Commercial business~~The ACL coverage ratio excluding SBA PPP loans ~~also include $544.1 million in warehouse lines of credit, which experienced large growth of 43.6% during the six months ended~~at June 30, ~~2020.

The ~~increase~~decrease in total ACL as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~March~~December 31, 2020 ~~reflects additional~~due to improving economic forecasts was partially offset by the increase in reserves for individually evaluated loans which increased from $7.3 million at December 31, 2020 to account for the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and to account for the risk associated with the large amount of COVID-19 modifications during the second quarter of 2020. All loans types aside from commercial business and consumer and other loans had an$30.6 million at June 30, 2021. The increase in ACL ~~and~~for individually evaluated loans was due to the increase in ACL ~~coverage ratios. During~~of a large real estate loan in 2021. The change of this loan from being collectively evaluated to individually evaluated resulted in additional ACL of approximately $21.6 million. The allowance requirement for loans evaluated on a collective basis declined to $158.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $199.4 million at December 31, 2020 due to the ~~second quarter of 2020, we received updated financial statements for many of~~projected improvement in economic recovery estimated by the forecast scenario utilized in our commercial business borrowers which indicated they were in a much stronger position coming into the pandemic that previously assumed which resulted a reduction in ACL. The decline in consumer and other ACL was largely driven by credit card loans as we experienced an 18.1% decline in credit balances from payments received during the quarter, which reduced utilization rates and required ACL.allowance calculation.

* Annualized

We believe the ACL as of June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was adequate to absorb lifetime losses in the loan portfolio. However, no assurance can be given that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. IfAmong other things, if the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are worse than we currently expect, or if the effects are prolonged, actual losses could exceed the estimated amounts, which could have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications

During the first quarter of 2020, we received a large number of modification requests from borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Subsequently many of those requests for modifications were granted during the second quarter of ~~2020.~~2020 in accordance with the guidelines of the CARES Act. Many of these modifications had deferral periods that expired in 2020 but some customers were granted a second modification. As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, loans that were modified due to hardship caused by the COVID-19 pandemic totaled ~~$3.12 billion,~~$318.7 million, which represented approximately ~~24.2%~~2.4% of our total loan portfolio, asa decline from 10.2% total modifications at December 31, 2020 and 6.9% total modifications at March 31, 2021. Generally, we have not provided additional modifications under the CARES Act since the end of ~~June 30,~~ 2020. ~~To assist~~Based on our ~~customers during this difficult time,~~COVID-19 modifications expiration schedule, we ~~provided various types of~~expect active modifications to ~~fit~~decrease to less than 1 percent of total loans by the ~~needs~~third quarter of each borrower. Most of the COVID-19 related modifications consisted of three month full payment deferrals, which represented $2.72 billion, or 87.2% of the $3.12 billion in total modifications. We also had full payment deferral modifications ranging from one to nine months in addition to principal only, interest only, and fixed monthly payment modifications. 2021.

Commercial real estate loans secured by hotel/motel and retail properties ~~as these industries were hardest hit by the pandemic.~~

represent over half of our remaining COVID-19 modifications representing 36% and 23% of total COVID-19 modifications, respectively. Our hotel/motel loan portfolio consists mostly of limited services facilities, which were less impacted by the pandemic compared to destination hotel properties. Although occupancy trends have stabilized for many of our hotel/motel operators, we expect that many of our hotel/motel borrowers will require a second round of modifications once the initial modification term ends. The majority of our hotel/motel loans are secured with personal guarantees.

Modified loans secured by retail properties consist mostly of strip mall type properties anchored by grocery markets with tenants of these properties made up of largely service oriented businesses. Many of these businesses are now operating again ~~although at a limited level due~~without as many restrictions that were initially put into place to ~~social distancing requirement as a result~~prevent the spread the COVID-19 virus. The balance of ~~the pandemic. Based on discussions with many of our~~remaining COVID-19 modifications for loans secured by hotel/motel and retail ~~borrowers, we expect that many of the retail borrowers who received modifications during~~properties has declined significantly in recent quarters and is expected to decline further in the second ~~quarter~~half of ~~2020 may not require a subsequent modification as they are seeing a relative return to stability.~~2021.

Of the COVID-19 related modifications presented above, approximately 98% were modified under the terms of Section 4013 of the CARES Act. The remaining loan modifications were loans that did not qualify under the requirements as specified in Section 4013 of the CARES Act. In accordance with the CARES Act and interagency guidance, qualifying modifications ~~provides~~provide banks the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. As of June 30, ~~2020, all~~2021, loans modified under Section 4013 of the CARES Act and interagency guidance were not included as ~~TDRs.~~TDRs unless the loans were previously classified as TDR prior to the modification. When a loan is no longer modified under the CARES Act, the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP no longer apply.

At June 30, 2021, we had $47.1 million in loan accrued interest receivables compared to $54.6 million at December 31, 2020. Total accrued interest receivables related to loans modified due to COVID-19 totaled $7.1 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $25.4 million at December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021, we had $751 thousand in recorded ACL for accrued interest receivables that relate to COVID-19 loan deferrals. The ACL on accrued interest receivables was calculated by applying the same loss rate on COVID-19 modified loans from our CECL calculation to the related accrued interest balances by loan type as of June 30, 2021.

OREO

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, OREO, net totaled ~~$21.0~~$16.6 million, a decrease of ~~$3.1~~$3.5 million compared to ~~$24.1~~$20.1 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Deposits, Other Borrowings, and Convertible Notes

Deposits

Deposits are our primary source of funds used in lending and investment activities. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, deposits increased ~~$1.60 billion,~~$392.3 million, or ~~12.7%~~2.7%, to ~~$14.12~~$14.73 billion from ~~$12.53~~$14.33 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The increase in deposits was primarily due to ~~an increase~~increases in demand ~~deposit~~deposits and money market and NOW ~~account balances~~accounts offset partially by a ~~decline~~decrease in time ~~deposit balances.~~deposits. Demand deposits increased ~~$927.7~~$823.9 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 due to an increase in retail deposits. ~~In addition, approximately $326.0 million demand deposits balances at June 30, 2020, represent SBA PPP loans that we originated which were deposited into demand deposit accounts.~~

At June 30, ~~2020, 28.6%~~2021, 38.3% of total deposits were noninterest bearing demand deposits, ~~35.1%~~20.4% were time deposits, and ~~36.3%~~41.3% were interest bearing demand and savings deposits. At December 31, ~~2019, 24.8%~~2020, 33.6% of total deposits were noninterest bearing demand deposits, ~~41.2%~~27.8% were time deposits, and ~~34.0%~~38.6% were interest bearing demand and savings deposits.

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we had ~~$1.87 billion~~$378.5 million in brokered deposits and $300.0 million in California State Treasurer deposits compared to ~~$1.48~~$1.14 billion in brokered deposits and $300.0 million in California State Treasurer deposits at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The California State Treasurer time deposits at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 had original maturities ~~ranging from~~of three ~~to six~~ months, had a weighted average interest rate of ~~0.61%~~0.10%, and were collateralized with securities with atotal fair value of ~~$333.2~~$350.7 million.

We increased our brokered deposit balances during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to enhance our overall liquidity in consideration of the recent COVID-19 pandemic. However, since the declaration of the pandemic, we have not experienced any meaningful deposit run-off or line of credit draw-downs.2020.

FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings

We utilize FHLB advances as a secondary source of funds in addition to deposits, which we consider our primary source of funding. FHLB advances are typically secured by pledged loans and/or securities with a market value at least equal to the outstanding advances plus our investment in FHLB stock. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, FHLB advances totaled ~~$500.0~~$200.0 million and had an average weighted remaining maturity of ~~1.3 year~~0.8 years compared to ~~$625.0~~$250.0 million in FHLB advances with an average weighted remaining maturity of ~~1.2~~0.8 years at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

We did not have federal funds purchased at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Trust Preferred Securities accrue and pay distributions periodically at specified annual rates as provided in the related indentures for the securities. The trusts used the net proceeds from their respective offerings to purchase a like amount of subordinated debentures (the “Debentures”) issued by us. The Debentures are the sole assets of the trusts. Our obligations under the Debentures and related documents, taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by us of the obligations of the trusts. Subordinated debentures totaled ~~$103.6~~$104.8 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$103.0~~$104.2 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The Trust Preferred Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturity of the Debentures, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indentures. We have the right to redeem the Debentures in whole (but not in part) on or after specific dates, at a redemption price specified in the indentures plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date.

Convertible Notes

In 2018, we issued $217.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. The convertible notes were issued as part of our plan to repurchase common stock. The convertible notes pay interest on a semi-annual basis to holders of the notes. The convertible notes can be called by us, in whole or in part, at any time after five years for the original issued amount in cash. Holders of the notes can put the notes for cash on the fifth, tenth, and fifteenth year of the notes. The net carrying balance of convertible notes at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$202.0~~$215.7 million, net of ~~$15.5~~$1.8 million in ~~discounts, which represents the conversion option discount and capitalized~~uncapitalized issuance costs. At December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the net carrying balance of convertible notes was ~~$199.5~~$204.6 million, net of ~~$18.0~~$12.9 million in discounts and issuance costs. The increase in convertible notes from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021 was due to the early adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. With the adoption of the ASU 2020-06, the convertible notes are accounted for entire as debt and no longer has a discount or equity portion. (See footnote 10 “Subordinated Debentures and Convertible Notes” for additional information regarding convertible notes issued)

Off-Balance-Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations

We routinely engage in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected, in whole or in part, in the consolidated financial statements. These activities are part of our normal course of business and include traditional off-balance-sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate swap contracts, and long-term debt.

Traditional off-balance-sheet credit-related financial instruments are primarily commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These activities could require us to make cash payments to third parties if certain specified future events occur. The contractual amounts represent the extent of our exposure in these off-balance-sheet activities. These activities are necessary to meet the financing needs of our customers.

We enter into interest rate swap contracts under which we are required to either receive cash from or pay cash to counterparties depending on changes in interest rates. We utilize interest rate swap contracts, interest rate floors, and interest rate caps to help manage the risk of changing interest rates. We also sell interest rate swaps to certain adjustable rate commercial loan customers to fix the interest rate on their floating rate loans. When the fixed rate swap is originated with the customer, an identical offsetting swap is also entered into by us with a correspondent bank.

~~During the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a~~We have an outstanding risk participation agreement aswhich is a part of a syndicated loan transaction that we participated in as a means to earn additional fee income. Risk participation agreements are credit derivatives not designated as hedges in which we share in the risk related to the interest rate swap on participated loans. Credit derivatives are not speculative and are not used to manage interest rate risk in assets or liabilities.

We enter into various stand-alone mortgage-banking derivatives in order to hedge the risk associated with the fluctuation of interest rates. The first type of derivative, an interest rate lock commitment, is a commitment to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding. To mitigate interest rate risk on these rate lock commitments we also enter into forward commitments, or commitments to deliver residential mortgage loans on a future date, also considered derivatives. Net change in the fair value of derivatives represents income recorded from changes in fair value for these mortgage derivatives instruments.

We do not anticipate that our current off-balance-sheet activities will have a material impact on our future results of operations or our financial condition. Further information regarding our financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk can be found in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital

Historically, our primary source of capital has been the retention of earnings, net of interest payments on Debentures and convertible notes and dividend payments to stockholders. We seek to maintain capital at a level sufficient to assure our stockholders, customers, and regulators that we and the Bank are financially sound. For this purpose, we perform ongoing assessments of capital related risks, components of capital, as well as projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and levels of risks.

Total stockholders’ equity was ~~$2.03~~$2.09 billion at June 30, ~~2020 compared to $2.04~~2021 and $2.05 billion at December 31, ~~2019. For~~2020. During the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, shareholders’ equity ~~was~~ increased by ~~$52.7~~$39.1 million ~~from~~due to increases in net income earned ~~$29.0~~of $97.5 million and from ~~other the increase~~$10.7 million adjustment to beginning retained earnings upon early adoption of ASU 2020-06 offset partially by decreases in other comprehensive income of $17.7 million, dividends paid of $34.6 million and ~~increased $2.7~~additional paid-in capital of $16.8 million. The $16.8 million ~~due~~adjustment to additional paid-in capital during the six months ended June 30, 2021 included $1.5 million in stock based compensation ~~adjustments. These increases were~~and was fully offset by ~~$36.2~~a $18.3 million ~~in share repurchases, $34.7 million in cash dividends paid, and a~~ decrease to reverse the equity portion of ~~$18.8 million due to the Day 1 impact from~~our convertible notes, net of taxes upon the adoption of ~~CECL, net~~ASU 2020-06.

On July 22, 2021, our Board of ~~taxes. We elected~~Directors approved a new stock repurchase plan that authorizes management to ~~defer~~repurchase up to $50 million of common stock. Stock repurchases through the ~~$18.8 million Day 1 CECL impact to regulatory capital for two years~~new plan may be executed through various means, including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or by other means as determined by management and in accordance with ~~the revised regulatory CECL transition guidance.~~

SEC rules and regulations.

The federal banking agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.00%, a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.00%, and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 common equity capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.50%, to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal banking agencies require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to average total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 4.00% to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. Federal banking agencies also require a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% in addition to the ratios required to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. Failure to maintain this capital conservation buffer results in limits or prohibitions on capital distributions and discretionary compensation payments. Capital requirements apply to us and the Bank separately. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios.

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, our common equity Tier 1 capital was ~~$1.54~~$1.64 billion compared to ~~$1.55~~$1.57 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Our Tier 1 capital, defined as stockholders’ equity less intangible assets and includes our trust preferred securities, was ~~$1.64~~$1.74 billion at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$1.65~~$1.67 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was ~~11.50%~~11.44%. The total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was ~~13.23%~~13.16% and the Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was ~~12.24%~~12.14%. The Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~10.08%~~10.43%.

At June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the most recent regulatory notification generally categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the general regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action. To be generally categorized as “well-capitalized” the Bank must maintain minimum common equity Tier 1 capital, total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios as set forth in the table below.

Liquidity Management

Liquidity risk is the risk of reduction in our earnings or capital that would result if we were not able to meet our obligations when they come due without incurring unacceptable losses. Liquidity risk includes the risk of unplanned decreases or changes in funding sources and changes in market conditions that affect our ability to liquidate assets quickly and with minimum loss of value. Factors considered in liquidity risk management are the stability of the deposit base; the marketability, maturity, and pledging of our investments; the availability of alternative sources of funds; and our demand for credit. The objective of our liquidity management is to have funds available to meet cash flow requirements arising from fluctuations in deposit levels and the demands of daily operations, which include funding of securities purchases, providing for customers’ credit needs, and ongoing repayment of borrowings.

Our primary sources of liquidity are derived from financing activities, which include customer and broker deposits, federal funds facilities, and borrowings from the FHLB and the FRB Discount Window. These funding sources are augmented by payments of principal and interest on loans and securities, proceeds from sale of loans, and the liquidation or sale of securities from our available for sale portfolio. Primary uses of funds include withdrawal of and interest payments on deposits, originations of loans, purchases of investment securities, and payment of operating expenses.

At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, our total borrowing capacity from the FHLB was ~~$4.01~~$4.30 billion of which ~~$3.46~~$4.08 billion was unused and available to borrow. At June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, our total borrowing capacity from the FRB Discount Window was ~~$726.6~~$616.4 million, all of which was unused and available to borrow. In addition to these lines, our liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing cash deposits and time deposits with other banks, liquid investment securities available for sale, and equity investments were ~~$2.91~~$2.68 billion at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~$1.95~~$2.23 billion at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Cash and cash equivalents were ~~$1.47 billion~~$837.0 million at June 30, ~~2020~~2021 compared to ~~$698.6~~$350.6 million at December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. We believe our liquidity sources are sufficient to meet all reasonably foreseeable short-term and intermediate-term needs.

As a result of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, we are reviewing our liquidity position on a ~~daily~~more frequent basis. The pandemic has not ~~yet~~to date materially impacted our liquidity position. We have not experienced any meaningful deposit run off and our sources of funds remain fully available for use.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The objective of our asset and liability management activities is to maximize our earnings while maintaining adequate liquidity and an exposure to interest rate risk deemed by management to be acceptable by adjusting the type and mix of assets and liabilities to seek to effectively address changing conditions and risks. Through overall management of our balance sheet and by seeking to manage various risks, we seek to optimize our financial returns within safe and sound parameters. Our operating strategies for attaining this objective include managing net interest margin through appropriate risk/return pricing of assets and liabilities and emphasizing growth in retail deposits, as a percentage of interest bearing liabilities, to reduce our cost of funds. We also seek to improve earnings by controlling noninterest expense and enhancing noninterest income. We also use various methods to protect against our exposure to interest rate fluctuations with the objective of reducing the effects fluctuations might have on associated cash flows or values. Finally, we perform internal analysis to measure, evaluate, and monitor risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk impacting us. Interest rate risk occurs when interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities do not reprice simultaneously and in equal volumes. A key objective of asset and liability management is to manage interest rate risk associated with changing asset and liability cash flows, values of our assets and liabilities, and market interest rate movements. The management of interest rate risk is governed by policies reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors. Our Board delegates responsibility for interest rate risk management to the Asset and Liability Board Committee (“ALCO”) and to the Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALM”), which is composed of the Bank’s senior executives and other designated officers.

The fundamental objective of our ALM is to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations while maintaining adequate levels of liquidity and capital. Our ALM meets regularly to monitor interest rate risk, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of our assets and liabilities, and our investment activities. It also directs changes in the composition of our assets and liabilities. Our strategy has been to reduce the sensitivity of our earnings to interest rate fluctuations by more closely matching the effective maturities or repricing characteristics of our assets and liabilities. Certain assets and liabilities, however, may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Furthermore, interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate prior to changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. We consider the anticipated effects of these factors when implementing our interest rate risk management objectives.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We monitor interest rate risk through the use of a simulation model that provides us with the ability to simulate our net interest income. In order to measure, at June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the sensitivity of our forecasted net interest income to changing interest rates, both rising and falling interest rate scenarios were projected and compared to base market interest rate forecasts. One application of our simulation model measures the impact of market interest rate changes on the net present value of estimated cash flows from our assets and liabilities, defined as our market value of equity. This analysis assesses the changes in market values of interest rate sensitive financial instruments that would occur in response to immediate and parallel changes in market interest rates.

The impacts on our net interest income and market value of equity exposed to immediate and parallel hypothetical changes in market interest rates as projected by the model we use for this purpose are illustrated in the following table:


		June 30, 2020									December 31, 2019												June 30, 2021							December 31, 2020
Simulated Rate Changes	Simulated Rate Changes	Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity		Market Value Of Equity Volatility				Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity			Market Value Of Equity Volatility		Simulated Rate Changes		Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity					Market Value Of Equity Volatility			Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity				Market Value Of Equity Volatility

LIBOR Transition

On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after December 31, 2021. As a result, it is expected that after 2021, LIBOR rates will no longer be available or will no longer be viewed as an acceptable benchmark rate. The Company has financial instruments that are indexed to LIBOR including investment securities available for sale, loans, derivatives, subordinated debentures, and other financial contracts that mature after December 31, 2021. At this time, the Company cannot predict the overall effect of the modification or discontinuation of LIBOR. The Company has formed a committee to oversee the transition process and assess the impact and associated risks from this transition and explore potential alternatives that can be used for its financial instruments that are indexed to LIBOR.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 and in January 2021 issued ASU 2021-01 which ~~provides~~provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The ASU is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period and the committee overseeing our transition process is evaluating the optional guidance.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal claims. Management has reviewed all legal claims against the Company with counsel and has taken into consideration the views of such counsel as to the potential outcome of the claims in determining our accrued loss contingency. Accrued loss contingencies for all legal claims totaled approximately ~~$1.2 million~~$25 thousand at June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. It is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses in addition to the amounts currently accrued. However, at this time, the Company is unable to estimate the range of additional losses that are reasonably possible because of a number of factors, including the fact that certain of these litigation matters are still in their early stages and involve claims for which, at this point, management believes have little to no merit. Management has considered these and other possible loss contingencies and does not expect the amounts to be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

~~For information regarding factors that could affect our business, results~~

Management is not aware of ~~operations, financial condition and liquidity, see~~any material changes to the risk factors discussed in Part I,1, Item 1A, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019, as well as~~2020. In addition to the ~~update of those risk factors by the addition of~~other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part ~~II,~~1, Item 1A, of the ~~Quarterly~~Annual Report on Form ~~10-Q~~10-K for the ~~quarter~~year ended ~~March~~December 31, ~~2020.~~2020, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management, or that management presently believes not to be material, may also result in material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
