NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1—Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Silvergate Capital Corporation, a Maryland corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silvergate Bank (the “Bank”), collectively referred to as (the “Company” or “Silvergate”).

The Bank was incorporated in 1987 and commenced business in 1988 under the California Financial Code as an industrial bank. In February 2009 the Bank converted its charter to a California commercial bank, which gave it the added authority to accept demand deposits. At the same time, the Company also became a registered bank holding company under the federal Bank Holding Company Act. The Bank became a member of the Federal Reserve System in December 2012. The Bank is subject to regulation by the California Department of Business Oversight (“DBO”), and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”), and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to applicable legal limits.

On November 15, 2018, the Company and the Bank entered into a purchase and assumption agreement to sell the Bank’s retail branch located in San Marcos, California and business loan portfolio to HomeStreet Bank. The Company completed the sale in March 2019, which included the reduction of $115.4 million in loans and $74.5 million in deposits and resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $5.5 million.

Financial Statement Preparation and Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, in accordance with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented reflects all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair ~~presentation~~statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. These consolidated statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, included in the Company’s ~~prospectus~~Annual Report on Form 10-K dated ~~November 6, 2019 and filed with the SEC on November 8, 2019, relating to its initial public offering (“IPO”).~~March 10, 2020. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all other entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company include its wholly owned subsidiaries. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the financial services industry.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes. We evaluate estimates on an ongoing basis including the economic impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (or “COVID-19”). Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

~~Deferred Offering Costs~~

The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting, and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the equity financing, these costs are recorded in equity as a reduction from the proceeds of the offering. Should the equity financing for which those costs relate no longer be considered probable of being consummated, all deferred offering costs will be charged to operating expenses in the statement of operations. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company has recorded $2.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of deferred offering costs within other assets in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition. Subsequent to September 30, 2019, these costs were recorded in equity as a reduction to the gross proceeds in conjunction with the Company’s IPO on November 7, 2019. See “Note 15—Subsequent Events” for more information.

~~Adopted~~ ~~Accounting Pronouncements~~

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (or “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (or “ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance amended existing guidance that requires lessees recognize the following for all leases at the commencement date: (1) A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease equal to the present value of lease payments; and (2) A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s

right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term, based upon the amount of the lease liability. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In July 2018 the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topics 842) Targeted Improvements, that updated narrow aspects of ASU 2016-02, include an additional transition method for adoption that results in initial recognition of a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings in the year of adoption and a practical expedient for lessors. These amendments were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has operating leases for its headquarters and bank branches that fall under Topic 842. The Company elected certain practical expedients upon transition, including retaining the lease classification for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard, the transition method with the application date at the beginning of the adoption period, which was January 1, 2019, elected to separate non-lease components and not to recognize short term leases. The impact of the adoption was an increase in assets and liabilities of approximately $5.5 million on its consolidated statement of financial condition. See “Note 9—Commitments and Contingencies—Operating Leases” for more information.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This ASU requires that implementation costs incurred by customers in a cloud computing arrangement be deferred and recognized over the non-cancellable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any optional renewal periods (1) that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or (2) for which exercise of the renewal option is controlled by the cloud service provider, if those costs would have been capitalized in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance under ASC 350-40. For public business entities, amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for all entities. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company adopted the guidance prospectively as of January 1, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 the Company deferred approximately $1.6 million under the new guidance.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective

In June 2016, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standards Update (or “ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) to replace the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (or “CECL”) model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, held to maturity debt securities, and reinsurance receivables. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor. These amendments were initially effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 for SEC registrants and after December 15, 2020, for Public Business Entities, or PBEs. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses ~~(Topic326)~~(Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which finalized the delay of the effective date for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company, to apply the standards related to CECL, until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. For debt securities with other than temporary impairment (OTTI), the guidance will be applied prospectively and for existing purchased credit impaired (PCI) assets will be grandfathered and

classified as purchased credit deteriorated (PCD) assets at the date of adoption. The asset will be grossed up for the allowance for expected credit losses for all PCD assets at the date of adoption and will continue to recognize the noncredit discount in interest income based on the yield such assets as of the adoption date. Subsequent changes in expected credit losses will be recorded through the allowance. For all other assets with the scope of CECL, the cumulative effect adjustment will be recognized in retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. The Company formed a CECL implementation committee in 2018 which prepared a project plan to migrate towards the adoption date. As part of the project plan, the Company contracted a third-party vendor to assist in the application and analysis of ASU 2016-13 as well as a ~~third party~~third-party vendor to perform an independent model validation. As part of this process, the Company has determined preliminary loan pool segmentation under CECL, as well as evaluated the key economic loss drivers for each segment. The Company continues to work through the implementation plan and has made significant progress by performing data gap assessments, completed remediation efforts and established preliminary decisions regarding economic scenarios. The Company operationalized an initial CECL model during the second quarter of 2019 and ~~plans to run the~~is running this preliminary CECL model alongside the existing incurred loss ~~methodology~~methodology. The Company intends to continue to refine and run the model until the date of adoption. ~~The Company expects to continually address any gaps in interpretations, methodology, data and operational processes based upon reviews and tests.~~ The Company continues to evaluate the effects of ASU 2016-13 on its financial statements and disclosures and whether ~~or not~~ to early adopt the ~~guidance in 2021 or 2022.~~

guidance.

In ~~August 2018,~~March 2020, the FASB issued ASU ~~2018-13, Fair Value Measurement~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic ~~820)~~848): ~~Disclosure Framework-Changes~~Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (or “ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary, optional guidance to ease the ~~Disclosure Requirements~~potential burden in accounting for, ~~Fair Value Measurement.~~or recognizing the effects of, the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (or “LIBOR”) or other interbank offered rate (reference rates) on financial reporting, which currently is expected to be discontinued by the end of 2021. To help with the transition to new reference rates, the ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to affected contract modifications and hedge accounting relationships. The ~~updated~~ guidance ~~improves the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements.~~is applicable only to contracts or hedge accounting relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The ~~updated guidance if effective for fiscal years,~~expedients and ~~interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after~~exceptions in this update are available to all entities starting March 12, 2020 through December ~~15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures.~~31, 2022. The Company is ~~currently assessing~~evaluating the ~~timing and~~ impact ~~of adopting the updated provisions.~~that ASU 2020-04 will have on those financial assets where LIBOR is used as an index rate.

~~With the exception of~~Except for the updated standards discussed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance, or potential significance, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

As indicated in the tables above, as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company’s investment securities had gross unrealized losses totaling approximately ~~$5.5~~$16.5 million, compared to approximately ~~$2.8~~$7.7 million at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The Company analyzed all of its securities with an unrealized loss position. For each security, the Company analyzed the credit quality and performed a projected cash flow analysis. In analyzing the credit quality, management may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies or its sponsored entities, or non-governmental entities, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and if credit quality has deteriorated. In analyzing the issuer’s financial condition, management may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies or its sponsored entities, or non-governmental entities, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of review of the issuer’s financial condition. When performing a cash flow analysis the Company uses models that project prepayments, default rates, and loss severities on the collateral supporting the security, based on underlying loan level borrower and loan characteristics and interest rate assumptions. In addition, the Company has contracted with third party companies to perform independent cash flow analyses of its securities portfolio as needed. The unrealized losses on private-label collateralized mortgage obligations are due primarily to increased credit spreads as of June 30, 2020. The Company has an adequate amount of credit enhancement to cover any expected losses at this time. Based on these analyses and reviews conducted by the Company, and

assisted by independent third parties, the Company determined that none of its securities required an other-than-temporary impairment charge at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 or December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. Management continues to expect to recover the adjusted amortized cost basis of these bonds.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had 3133 securities whose estimated fair value declined ~~1.26%~~3.51% from the Company’s amortized cost; at December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company had 3233 securities whose estimated fair value declined ~~0.92%~~1.72% from the Company’s amortized cost. The increase in percentage of unrealized losses ~~relate principally~~is related to market liquidity concerns associated with COVID-19, which persisted though the ~~general change~~second quarter of 2020, and widened credit spreads on securities and changes in market interest rates since the purchase ~~dates and such~~dates. Unrecognized losses associated with liquidity concerns as a result of COVID-19 are not expected to remain constant in the future, however, unrecognized losses will continue to vary with general market interest rate ~~fluctuations in the future.~~fluctuations. Fair values are expected to recover as the securities approach their respective maturity dates and management believes it is not more likely than not it will be required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis.

For ~~both~~ the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 the Company received ~~$31.1~~$202.3 million in proceeds and recognized ~~$16,000 in losses~~a $3.5 million gain and $0.9 million loss on sales of ~~available for sale~~available-for-sale securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 the Company received $216.4 million in proceeds and recognized a $4.7 million gain and $0.9 million loss on sales of available-for-sale securities. There were no0 sales and calls of securities ~~during the~~ for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018.~~2019.

Note 3—Loans

The following disclosure reports the Company’s loan portfolio segments and classes. Segments are groupings of similar loans at a level in which the Company has adopted systematic methods of documentation for determining its allowance for loan and credit losses. Classes are a disaggregation of the portfolio segments. The Company’s loan portfolio segments are:

Real estate loans. Real estate includes loans for which the Company holds one-to-four family, multi-family, commercial and construction real property as collateral. Commercial real estate lending activity is typically restricted to owner-occupied

properties or to investor properties that are owned by customers with a current banking relationship. The primary risks of real estate mortgage loans include the borrower’s inability to pay, material decreases in the value of the real estate that is being held as collateral and significant increases in interest rates, which may make the real estate mortgage loan unprofitable. Real estate loans also may be adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy.

Commercial and industrial. Commercial and industrial loans consist of loans and lines of credit to small and medium-sized businesses in a wide variety of industries, including distributors, manufacturers, software developers, business services companies and independent finance companies. Commercial and industrial loans are generally collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, loan and lease receivables, and other commercial assets, and may be supported by other credit enhancements such as personal guarantees. Risk may arise from differences between expected and actual cash flows and/or liquidity levels of the borrowers, as well as the type of collateral securing these loans and the reliability of the conversion thereof to cash. Since the March 2019 sale of ~~our~~the business loan portfolio, commercial and industrial loans consist primarily of asset based loans. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company began offering a new pilot product called SEN Leverage, which will allow Silvergate customers to obtain U.S. dollar loans collateralized by bitcoin held at select digital currency exchanges or custodians that are also Silvergate customers. The Company plans to expand this offering in the latter part of 2020. The outstanding balance of SEN Leverage loans was $20.0 million as of June 30, 2020.

Consumer and other. Consumer loans consist of consumer loans and other loans secured by personal property.

Reverse mortgage. From 2012 to 2014, the Company purchased home equity conversion mortgage (“HECM”) loans (also known as reverse mortgage loans) which are a special type of home loan, for homeowners aged 62 years or older, that requires no monthly mortgage payments. Reverse mortgage loan insurance is provided by the U.S. Federal Housing Administration through the HECM program which protects lenders from losses due to non-repayment of the loans. In mid-2014, the ~~Bank~~Company ceased purchases of reverse mortgage loans and, began selling its remaining loans in the secondary market. ~~At September 30, 2019, the Bank owned $1.6 million of reverse mortgage loans.~~

Mortgage warehouse. The Company’s mortgage warehouse lending division provides short-term interim funding for single-family residential mortgage loans originated by mortgage bankers or other lenders pending the sale of such loans in the secondary market. The Company’s risk is mitigated by comprehensive policies, procedures, and controls governing this activity, partial loan funding by the originating lender, guaranties or additional monies pledged to the Company as security, and the short holding period of funded loans on the Company’s balance sheet. In addition, the loss rates of this portfolio have historically been minimal, and these loans are all subject to written purchase commitments from takeout investors or are hedged. The Company’s mortgage warehouse loans may either be held-for-investment or held-for-sale depending on the underlying contract. The Company sold approximately ~~$23.7~~$20.2 million and ~~$19.9~~$36.8 million of loans to participants during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. The Company sold approximately ~~$124.3~~$41.9 million and ~~$130.0~~$100.6 million of loans to participants during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, gross mortgage warehouse loans were approximately ~~$368.6~~$477.1 million and ~~$252.6~~$405.0 million, respectively.

A summary of loans as of the periods presented are as follows:

Loans held-for-sale included ~~$306.7~~$321.8 million and ~~$211.0~~$365.8 million of mortgage warehouse loans at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. At December 31, 2018, loans held-for-sale also included $125.2 million of business loans that were sold in March 2019, discussed in “Note 1—Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, approximately ~~$618.7~~$617.0 million and ~~$546.7~~$614.3 million, respectively, of the Company’s loan portfolio were collateralized by various forms of real estate. A significant percentage of such loans are collateralized by properties located in California ~~(66.6%~~(74.1% and ~~69.7%~~64.8% as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively), and Arizona ~~(8.4%~~(6.5% and ~~7.3%~~10.2% as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively)~~, and Florida (5.6% and 3.4% as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively)~~with no other state greater than 5%. The Company attempts to address and mitigate concentrations of credit risk by making loans that are diversified by collateral type, placing limits on the amounts of various categories of loans relative to total Company capital, and conducting quarterly reviews of its portfolio by collateral type, geography, and other characteristics. While management believes that the collateral presently securing its portfolio and the recorded allowance for loan losses are adequate to absorb potential losses, there can be no assurances that significant deterioration in the California ~~Florida~~ and Arizona real estate markets would not expose the Company to significantly greater credit risk.

Recorded investment in loans excludes accrued interest receivable, loan origination fees, net and unamortized premium or discount, net due to immateriality. Accrued interest on loans held-for-investment totaled approximately ~~$2.4~~$2.6 million and ~~$2.1~~$2.2 million and deferred fees totaled approximately ~~$3.0~~$3.1 million and ~~$2.5~~$2.7 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively.

Allowance for Loan Losses

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans held-for-investment at June 30, 2020 was 0.85%. The level of the allowance was based on modest increases in loan portfolio balances, Silvergate’s historically strong credit quality and minimal loan charge-offs, and the low to moderate loan-to-value margins in the Company's commercial, multi-family and one-to-four family real estate loans, as evidenced by weighted average loan-to-value ratios, based on last required appraisal value, in the low- to mid-50% range as of June 30, 2020. Although there is significant uncertainty in the current economic environment due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company believes the relatively low to moderate loan-to-value ratios provides a lower probability of loss in the event of defaults in the Company’s loan portfolio. The Company will continue to monitor trends in its portfolio segments for any known or probable adverse conditions with an emphasis on retail and hospitality loans within the commercial real estate loan portfolio.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company enhanced its qualitative adjustment framework within the calculation of the allowance for loan losses to ensure consistency in the calculation. The change provided a structured framework using Company and peer historical data covering a full credit cycle to determine the range of potential loss for each qualitative adjustment. The overall change was not material to the overall allowance, however within loan segments the allowance was reallocated based on the weighted qualitative adjustment specific for each loan segment.

The following tables present the allocation of the allowance for loan losses, as well as the activity in the allowance by loan class, and recorded investment in loans held-for-investment as of and for the periods presented:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A loan is identified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and, for economic or legal reasons related to these difficulties, the Company grants a concession to the borrower in the restructuring that it would not otherwise consider. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. The Company has granted a concession when, as a result of the restructuring, it does not expect to collect all amounts due or within the time periods originally due under the original contract, including one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a temporary forbearance with regard to the payment of principal or interest. All troubled debt restructurings are reviewed for potential impairment. Generally, a nonaccrual loan that is restructured remains on nonaccrual status for a minimum period of six months to demonstrate that the borrower can perform under the restructured terms. If the borrower’s performance under the new terms is not reasonably assured, the loan remains classified as a nonaccrual loan. Loans classified as TDRs are reported as impaired loans.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company had a recorded investment in TDR’s of ~~$1.8~~$1.6 million and ~~$0.5~~$1.8 million, respectively. The Company has not allocated any amount of specific allowance for those loans at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~has allocated a negligible amount of specific allowance for those loans at~~

December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The Company has not committed to lend additional amounts to these TDRs. NaN loans were modified as TDRs during the three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019 or during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.~~2020.

Modifications of loans classified as TDRs during the periods presented, are as follows:

	Number of Loans	Pre- Modifications Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post- Modifications Outstanding Recorded Investment		Number of Loans	Pre- Modifications Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post- Modifications Outstanding Recorded Investment

The TDR’s described above had no impact the allowance for loan losses and charge-offs during the ~~nine~~three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2019.

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms. There were no0 loans modified as TDRs for which there was a payment default within twelve months during the ~~nine~~three and six months ended

~~September~~ June 30, ~~2019~~2020 or ~~2018.~~2019. There was no0 provision for loan loss or charge-offs for TDR’s that subsequently defaulted during the three ~~or nine~~and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 or ~~2018.~~2019.

COVID-19 Related Modifications

In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (“the agencies”) issued an interagency statement on loan modifications for financial institutions working with customers affected by the Coronavirus. The interagency statement was effective immediately and impacted accounting for loan modifications. Under Accounting Standards Codification 310-40, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” a restructuring of debt constitutes a TDR if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Loans qualifying for these modifications will not be required to be reported as delinquent, nonaccrual, impaired or criticized solely as a result of a COVID-19 loan modification for the months of payment deferrals. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their modified contractual payments. A revised statement issued in April 2020, further clarified the interaction between the interagency statement and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) that was signed into law in March 2020. The Company elected to adopt these provisions of the CARES Act for the temporary modifications described above.

In April 2020, the Company implemented a short-term loan modification program for customers impacted financially by the COVID-19 pandemic to provide temporary relief to certain borrowers who meet the program’s qualifications. The program was offered to borrowers to modify their existing loans to temporarily defer principal and/or interest payments for a specified period of time, extend loan maturity dates and/or waive certain loan covenants. Deferred payments may be extended for continued hardship but are not to exceed a total of six months. The majority of short-term loan modifications for commercial real estate loan borrowers consist of deferred payments which may include principal, interest and escrow. Deferred interest is capitalized to the loan balance and deferred principal is added to the maturity or payoff date. For one-to-four family loans, the majority of short-term modifications consist of deferring full monthly payment of principal, interest and escrow, with deferred payments due at maturity or payoff of the loan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company modified 49 loans representing $136.8 million in loan balances, or 17%, of total gross loans held-for-investment as of June 30, 2020. All loans modified under these programs are maintained on full accrual status during the deferral period. No specific loan loss reserve allocation was deemed necessary for these modified loans. None of the modified loans met the criteria of a TDR under the CARES Act or the related interagency statement.

Loans modified that were not classified as TDRs during the period presented, are as follows:

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, collateral adequacy, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. This analysis typically includes larger, nonhomogeneous loans such as commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. This analysis is performed on an ongoing basis as new information is obtained. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:



Pass:		Loans in all classes that are not adversely rated, are contractually current as to principal and interest, and are otherwise in compliance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management believes that there is a low likelihood of loss related to those loans that are considered pass.

Special mention:		Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves 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 classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation 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 classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss:		Credits rated as loss are charged-off. Management has no expectation of the recovery of any payments in respect of credits rated as loss.

The following tables present by portfolio class the Company’s internal risk grading system as well as certain other information concerning the credit quality of the Company’s recorded investment in loans held-for-investment as of the periods presented. No assets were classified as loss or doubtful during the periods presented.

Note 6—Subordinated Debentures, Net

A trust formed by the Company issued $12.5 million of floating rate trust preferred securities in July 2001 as part of a pooled offering of such securities. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for its proceeds from the offering. The debentures and related accrued interest represent substantially all of the assets of the trust. The subordinated debentures bear interest at six-month LIBOR plus 375 basis points, which adjusts every six months in January and July of each year. Interest is payable semiannually. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the interest rate for the Company’s next scheduled payment was ~~5.94%~~5.51%, based on six-month LIBOR of ~~2.19%~~1.76%. On any January 25 or July 25 the Company may redeem the 2001 subordinated debentures at 100% of principal amount plus accrued interest. The 2001 subordinated debentures mature on July 25, 2031.

A second trust formed by the Company issued $3.0 million of trust preferred securities in January 2005 as part of a pooled offering of such securities. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for its proceeds from the offering. The debentures and related accrued interest represent substantially all of the assets of the trust. The subordinated debentures bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 185 basis points, which adjusts every three months. Interest is payable quarterly. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the interest rate for the Company’s next scheduled payment was ~~3.97%~~2.16%, based on three-month LIBOR of ~~2.12%~~0.31%. On the 15th day of any March, June, September, or December, the Company may redeem the 2005 subordinated debentures at 100% of principal amount plus accrued interest. The 2005 subordinated debentures mature on March 15, 2035.

The Company also retained a 3% minority interest in each of these trusts which is included in subordinated debentures. The balance of the equity in the trusts is comprised of mandatorily redeemable preferred securities. The subordinated debentures may be included in Tier I capital (with certain limitations applicable) under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations. The Company has the right to defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures from time to time for a period not to exceed five years.

Note 7—Derivative and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The Company utilizes interest rate derivatives as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the derivative does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual derivative agreements. In accordance with accounting guidance, changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are initially recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transactions. The initial fair value of hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness is recognized in the statement of financial condition under a systematic and rational method over the life of the hedging instrument and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. Any difference between the change in the fair value of the hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and the amounts recognized in earnings is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item, are recognized in current earnings as fair values change. The changes in fair value of the hedged item is recorded as a basis adjustment to the hedged assets or liabilities. The amount included as basis adjustments would be reclassified to current earnings on a straight-line basis over the original life of the hedged item should the hedges no longer be considered effective.

Interest rate swap. In 2020, the Company entered into 2 pay-fixed/receive floating rate interest rate swaps (the “Swap Agreements”) for a notional amount of $14.3 million that were designated as fair value hedges of certain available-for-sale securities. The Swap Agreements were determined to be fully effective during the periods presented and therefore no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. The Swap Agreements are based on three-month LIBOR and expire in 2030 and 2031. The Company expects the Swap Agreements to remain effective during the remaining term of the Swap Agreements.

Interest rate floor. In 2019, the Company entered into 20 interest rate floor agreements (the "Floor Agreements") for a total notional amount of $400.0 million to hedge cash flow receipts on cash and securities or loans, if needed. The original Floor Agreements expire on various dates in April 2024 and ~~June~~July 2029. The Company utilizes one-month LIBOR and three-month LIBOR interest rate floors as hedges against adverse changes in cash flows on the designated cash, securities or loans attributable to fluctuations in the ~~fed~~federal funds rate or three-month LIBOR below 2.50% or 2.25%, as applicable. The Floor

Agreements were determined to be fully effective during all periods presented and, as such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. The upfront fee paid to the counterparty in entering into these Floor Agreements was approximately $20.8 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company sold $200.0 million of its total $400.0 million notional amount of interest rate floors for $13.0 million, which resulted in a net gain of $8.4 million, to be recognized over the weighted average remaining term of 4.1 years. The remaining agreements are one-month LIBOR floors with a strike price of 2.25% and expire in July 2029.

Interest rate cap. In 2012, the Company entered into a $12.5 million and a $3.0 million notional forward interest rate cap agreement (the “Cap Agreements”) to hedge its variable rate subordinated debentures. The Cap Agreements expire July 25, 2022 and March 15, 2022, respectively. The Company utilizes interest rate caps as hedges against adverse changes in cash flows on the designated preferred trusts attributable to fluctuations in three-month LIBOR beyond 0.50% for the $3.0 million subordinated debenture and six-month LIBOR beyond 0.75% for the $12.5 million subordinated debenture. The ~~caps~~Cap Agreements were determined to be fully effective during all periods presented and, as such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. The upfront fee paid to the counterparty in entering into these Cap Agreements was approximately $2.5 million. The Company held approximately $0.4 million and $1.2 million of restricted cash at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which served as collateral for the expected payments under these Cap Agreements; such cash fluctuates based on the expected present value of the future payments and will be refunded to the counterparty upon termination or maturity of the Cap Agreements.

Note 9 —Commitments and Contingencies

Off-Balance Sheet Items

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various transactions, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company enters into these transactions to meet the financing needs of its customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and issue letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk exceeding the amounts recognized on the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amounts of these commitments. The same credit policies and procedures are used in making these commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company is not aware of any accounting loss to be incurred by funding these commitments, however, an allowance for off-balance sheet credit risk is recorded in other liabilities on the statements of financial condition. The allowance for these commitments amounted to approximately $0.1 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018.~~2019, respectively.

The Company’s commitments associated with outstanding letters of credit and commitments to extend credit expiring by period as of the date indicated are summarized below. Since commitments associated with letters of credit and commitments to extend credit may expire unused, the amounts shown do not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirements.


	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019

	(Dollars in thousands)				(Dollars in thousands)
Unfunded lines of credit	$	45,215	$	71,398	$	45,458	$	47,433
Letters of credit	257		10		540		655
Total credit extension commitments	$	45,472	$	71,408	$	45,998	$	48,088

Unfunded lines of credit represent unused credit facilities to the Company’s current borrowers that represent no change in credit risk that exist in the Company’s portfolio. Lines of credit generally have variable interest rates. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event of nonperformance by the customer in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the client from the underlying collateral, which can include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and/or marketable securities. The Company’s policies generally require that letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants like those contained in loan agreements and our credit risk associated with issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as the risk involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

The Company minimizes its exposure to loss under letters of credit and credit commitments by subjecting them to the same credit approval and monitoring procedures used for on-balance sheet instruments. The effect on the Company’s revenue, expenses, cash flows and liquidity of the unused portions of these letters of credit commitments cannot be precisely predicted because there is no guarantee that the lines of credit will be used.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract, for a specific purpose. Commitments generally have variable interest rates, fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts disclosed above do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Note 10—Stock-based Compensation

In June 2018, the Company adopted the 2018 Equity Compensation Plan, or 2018 Plan, that permits the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, to grant various forms of incentive awards. Under the 2018 Plan, the Compensation Committee has the power to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, or SARs, restricted stock and restricted stock units. The number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2018 Plan is 1,596,753.

In 2010, the Company adopted an equity compensation plan, or 2010 Plan, that provides for the grant of stock options to employees, directors, and other persons referred to in Rule 701 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. The number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2010 Plan is 730,784. The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for administrating the 2010 Plan and determining the terms of all awards under it, including their vesting, except that in the case of a change in control of the Company all options granted under the 2010 Plan shall become 100% vested. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, there are 0 shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan.

In accordance with authoritative guidance for stock-based compensation, compensation expense is recognized only for those shares expected to vest, based on the Company’s historical experience and future expectations. The Company has elected a policy of estimating expected forfeitures.

Total stock-based compensation ~~cost charged against income~~expense was ~~$17,000~~$0.2 million and ~~$17,000~~$30,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. Total stock-based compensation ~~cost charged against income~~expense was ~~$66,000~~$0.4 million and ~~$97,000~~$49,000 for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively.

Note 11—Regulatory Capital

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (Basel III rules) became effective for the Company on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under the Basel III rules, the Company must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. ~~The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019.~~ As of January 1, 2019, the capital conservation buffer had fully phased in to 2.50%. Management believes, as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. For the periods presented, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

Actual capital amounts and ratios for the Company (assuming minimum capital adequacy ratios were applicable to the Company) and the Bank as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, are presented in the following tables:

The Bank is restricted as to the amount of dividends that it can pay to the Company. Dividends declared in excess of the lesser of the Bank’s undivided profits or the Bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years less the amount of any distribution made to the Bank’s shareholders during the same period must be approved by the California DBO. Also, the Bank may not pay dividends that would result in capital levels being reduced below the minimum requirements shown above. In addition, under the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (BASEL III rules), a new “capital conservation buffer” is being phased in through 2019 with different and generally higher limits than the well capitalized limits noted above. This may further restrict dividend and executive bonus distributions, should the Company’s capital ratios fall below the minimums required.

Note 12—Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This standard’s fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 11—~~-Quoted~~Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 22—~~-Significant~~Significant observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 33—~~-Significant~~Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Financial Instruments Required To Be Carried At Fair Value

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:

~~Investments~~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) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2).

Derivatives. The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities are carried at fair value as required by GAAP. The estimated fair values of the derivative assets and liabilities are based on current market prices for similar instruments. Given the meaningful level of secondary market activity for derivative contracts, active pricing is available for similar assets and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2.

Impaired loans (collateral-dependent). The Company does not record impaired loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, fair value adjustments are recorded on these loans to reflect (1) partial write-downs, through charge-offs or specific allowances, that are based on the current appraised or market-quoted value of the underlying collateral or (2) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value. In some cases, the properties for which market quotes or appraised values

have been obtained are located in areas where comparable sales data is limited, outdated, or unavailable. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent impaired loans are obtained from real estate brokers or other third-party consultants. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, which generally include various Level 3 inputs. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available and such adjustments are typically ~~significant (Level 3).~~significant. Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic factors and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of these possible adjustments may vary. Impaired loans presented in the table below as of ~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018,~~the periods presented include impaired loans with specific allowances as well as impaired loans that have been partially charged-off.

Other real estate owned. Fair value estimates for foreclosed real estate are obtained from real estate brokers or other third-party consultants (Level 3). When a current appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value as a result of known changes in the market or the collateral and there is no observable market price, such valuation inputs result in a fair value measurement that is categorized as a ~~(Level 3)~~Level 3 measurement. To the extent a negotiated sales price or reduced listing price represents a significant discount to an observable market price, such valuation input would result in a fair value measurement that is also considered a ~~(Level 3)~~Level 3 measurement.

The following tables provide the hierarchy and fair value for each class of assets and liabilities measured at fair value at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018. There were no transfers of assets between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy for the periods presented.~~2019.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Financial Instruments Not Required To Be Carried At Fair Value

FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments. The Company’s estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial condition as of the dates presented:

~~Note 14—Shareholders’ Equity~~

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or Articles, authorize the Company to issue up to (i) 125,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), (ii) 25,000,000 shares of Class B Non-Voting Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B Non-Voting Common Stock”), and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share.

~~Preferred Stock~~

The Company, upon authorization of the board of directors, may issue shares of one or more series of preferred stock from time to time. The board of directors may, without any action by holders of Class A and Class B Common Stock or, except as may be otherwise provided in the terms of any series of preferred stock of which there are shares outstanding, holders of preferred stock adopt resolutions to designate and establish a new series of preferred stock. Upon establishing such a series of

preferred stock, the board will determine the number of shares of preferred stock of that series that may be issued and the rights and preferences of that series of preferred stock. The board of directors has not designated or established any series of preferred stock. The rights of any series of preferred stock may include, among others, general or special voting rights; preferential liquidation or preemptive rights; preferential cumulative or noncumulative dividend rights; redemption or put rights; and conversion or exchange rights.

~~Common Stock~~

~~Voting~~. Each holder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as otherwise required by law and subject to the rights and preferences of the holders of any outstanding shares of our preferred stock. The members of the Company’s board of directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast. The Company’s Articles expressly prohibit cumulative voting.

~~Class B Non-Voting Common Stock.~~ Class B Non-Voting Common Stock is non-voting while held by the initial holder with certain limited exceptions. Each share of Class B Non-Voting Common Stock will automatically convert into a share of Class A Common Stock upon certain sales or transfers by the initial holder of such shares including to an unaffiliated third-party and in a widely dispersed public offering. If Class B Non-Voting Common Stock is sold or transferred to an affiliate of the initial holder, the Class B Non-Voting Common Stock would not convert into Class A Common Stock.

On February 23, 2018, the Company completed a private placement of 9.5 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, generating gross proceeds of $114.0 million. Costs incurred with the private placement were $6.1 million. The private placement raised net proceeds of $107.9 million of common equity, $60.0 million of which was contributed as equity capital to the Bank during the first quarter of 2018. Proceeds from this placement also funded a stock repurchase of 997,506 shares of Class A and Class B common stock for $11.4 million, resulting in a net increase in shareholders’ equity of $96.5 million.

~~In March 2018, 1,165,000 shares of Class B common stock were sold by the Company’s shareholders and reissued as Class A common stock.~~

~~Note 15~~ ~~—Subsequent Events~~

~~IPO~~

The Company completed its IPO of 3,333,333 shares of its Class A common stock at a public offering price of $12.00 per share on November 7, 2019. The common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “SI.” The IPO generated aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $9.9 million before deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses, and estimated aggregate net proceeds to the Company of approximately $6.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses, which expenses are not yet finalized. Of the offered shares, 824,605 shares were offered by Silvergate and 2,508,728 shares were offered by selling shareholders. On November 15, 2019, the underwriters purchased an additional 499,999 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock from the Company’s selling shareholders in connection with the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional shares. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to support continued growth, including organic growth and for general corporate purposes, which could include repayment of long-term debt, future acquisitions and other growth initiatives.

~~Callable Brokered Certificates of Deposit~~

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had issued $325.0 million of callable brokered certificates of deposit related to the hedging strategy. The callable brokered certificates of deposit had an unamortized premium of $2.3 million and have an average life of 4.2 years as of September 30, 2019. These certificates of deposit are initially callable six months after issuance and monthly thereafter. The initial call dates for all callable brokered certificates of deposit are from October 2019 through January 2020. At September 30, 2019, the Company held a total of $196.0 million in callable certificates of deposit and $1.3 million of related unamortized premium, which was subsequently called after the end of third quarter.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the related notes and the Company’s ~~Registration Statement~~Annual Report on Form ~~S-1,~~10-K, which contains audited financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Results for the three and ~~nine month periods~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, ~~2019~~2020 or any future period.

Cautionary Note Regarding ~~Forward Looking~~Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “projection,” “forecast,” “goal,” “target,” “would,” “aim” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry and management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. The inclusion of these forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that such expectations, estimates and projections will be achieved. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this shareholder letter, and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether because of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict their occurrence. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each risk and uncertainty on our business or the extent to which any risk or uncertainty, or combination of risks and uncertainties, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (or “COVID-19”) outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and when and how the economy may be fully reopened. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations: the demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income; if the economy is unable to fully reopen as planned, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income; collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase; our allowance for loan losses may increase if borrowers experience financial difficulties, which will adversely affect our net income; the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us; as the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s (“Federal Reserve”) target federal funds rate to near 0%, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income; our cybersecurity risks are increased as the result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely; and FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs.

If one or more of the factors affecting our forward-looking information and statements proves incorrect, then our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking information and statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports and registration statements filed by us with the SEC. For information on the factors that could cause actual results to differ from the expectations stated in the forward- looking statements, see “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Form 10-K in addition to Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports as filed with the SEC.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this report, and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether because of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the current coronavirus disease COVID-19 as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world, and the duration and severity of its effects are currently unknown. In an emergency measure aimed at blunting the economic impact of COVID-19, the Federal Reserve lowered the target for the federal funds rate to a range of between zero to 0.25% on March 16, 2020. The following is a summary of some of the actions that we have taken in response to COVID-19 as well as the current and potential effects of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Employees

The majority of our employees continue to work remotely which has had minimal to no impact to maintaining our operations. The Company has adopted preventative measures to protect employees including social distancing policies for those few employees still working in the office, reduced branch hours, restricting non-essential business travel, enhanced cleaning services and continually provides guidelines to employees to promote healthy habits and ways to stay connected while working remotely.

Loan Portfolio

In April 2020, we implemented a short-term loan modification program for customers impacted financially by the COVID-19 pandemic to provide temporary relief to certain borrowers who meet the program’s qualifications. The program was offered to borrowers to modify their existing loans to temporarily defer principal and/or interest payments for a specified period of time, extend loan maturity dates and/or waive certain loan covenants. Deferred payments may be extended for continued hardship but are not to exceed a total of six months. The majority of short-term loan modifications for commercial real estate loan borrowers consist of deferred payments which may include principal, interest and escrow. Deferred interest is capitalized to the loan balance and deferred principal is added to the maturity or payoff date. For one-to-four family loans, the majority of short-term modifications consist of deferring full monthly payment of principal, interest and escrow, with deferred payments due at maturity or payoff of the loan. Loans qualifying for these modifications will not be required to be reported as delinquent, nonaccrual, impaired or criticized solely as a result of a COVID-19 loan modification for the months of payment deferrals. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their modified contractual payments.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we modified 49 loans representing $136.8 million in loan balances, or 17%, of total gross loans held-for-investment as of June 30, 2020. The two sectors within our commercial real estate loan portfolio that are expected to be most heavily impacted by COVID-19, retail and hospitality, made up $91.7 million of these modifications. All loans modified under these programs are maintained on full accrual status during the deferral period. Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) addressed COVID-19 related modifications and specified that such modifications made on loans that were current as of December 31, 2019 are not troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). In accordance with interagency guidance issued in April 2020, these short-term modifications made to a borrower affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental shutdown orders, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers and extensions of repayment terms, do not need to be identified as TDRs if the loans were current at the time a modification plan was implemented. The Company elected to adopt these provisions of the CARES Act for the temporary modifications described above. None of the modified loans met the criteria of a TDR under the CARES Act or the related interagency statement. The Company has worked closely with its borrowers throughout the pandemic and borrowers representing 27% of loan balances who initially were granted loan deferrals have resumed payments on their borrowings as of July 15, 2020.

Loans modified due to COVID-19 during the period presented are as follows:

	Number of Loans	Loan Balance At Period End		Percentage of Loan Portfolio Balance

Total Commercial	28	123,500		39%

Total COVID-19 related modifications	49	$	136,843	17%

At June 30, 2020, our gross loans held-for-investment portfolio was $797.2 million, with its largest segments consisting of commercial real estate and one-to-four-family real estate loans. Within the commercial real estate loan portfolio, we had $82.7 million of retail loans and $46.2 million of hospitality loans at such date. Although there is significant uncertainty in the current economic environment due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our relatively low to moderate loan-to-value ratios provide a lower probability of loss in the event of defaults in our loan portfolio. We will continue to monitor trends in our loan portfolio segments for any known or probable adverse conditions with an emphasis on our retail and hospitality loans within our commercial real estate loan portfolio.

Additional information at June 30, 2020 related to our loan segments, including the weighted average loan-to-values, is set forth below. Weighted average loan-to-value ratios are based on current loan balance and appraisal data performed either at origination date of the loan or based on a more current updated appraisal.

Overview

Silvergate Capital Corporation is the holding company for our wholly-owned subsidiary, Silvergate Bank, which we believe is the leading provider of innovative financial infrastructure solutions and services to participants in the nascent and expanding digital currency industry. Instrumental to our leadership position and growth strategy is the Silvergate Exchange Network ~~or SEN,~~(“SEN”) our proprietary, virtually instantaneous payment network for participants in the digital currency industry which serves as a platform for the development of additional products and services. The SEN has a powerful network effect that makes it more valuable as participants and utilization increase. The SEN has enabled us to focus on significantly growing our noninterest bearing deposit product for digital currency industry participants, which has provided the majority of our funding over the last two years. This unique source of funding is a distinctive advantage over most traditional financial institutions and allows us to generate revenue from a conservative portfolio of investments in cash, short term securities and certain types of loans that we believe generate attractive risk-adjusted returns. In addition, use of the SEN has resulted in an increase in noninterest income that we believe will become a valuable source of additional revenue as we develop and deploy fee-based solutions in connection with our digital currency initiative. We are also evaluating additional products or product enhancements specifically targeted at providing further financial infrastructure solutions to our customers and strengthening SEN network effects.

The Company is a Maryland corporation that is the parent company of Silvergate Bank. The Company’s assets consist primarily of its investment in the Bank and its primary activities are conducted through the Bank. The Company is a registered bank holding company that is subject to supervision by the Federal Reserve. The Bank is subject to supervision by the California Department of Business Oversight, Division of Financial Institutions ~~or DBO~~(“DBO”) and, as a Federal Reserve member

bank since 2012, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, or FRB. The Bank’s deposits are insured up to legal limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC.

The Bank provides financial services that include commercial banking, commercial and residential real estate lending, mortgage warehouse lending and commercial business lending. Our client base is diverse and consists of business and individual clients in California and other states and includes digital currency-related customers in the United States and internationally. Following the Bank’s conversion to a commercial bank we began introducing an expanded array of relationship-oriented business products and services, which in the past five years has been augmented by our digital currency initiative. While our commercial real estate lending activities are concentrated in California, we have a broader, nationwide

focus on deposit and cash management services for digital currency-related businesses, as well as mortgage warehouse and correspondent residential lending. ~~Our goal is~~ Beginning in July 2020, we ceased issuing purchases commitments for residential real estate loans through our correspondent lending unit, but will continue to ~~establish profitable long-term banking relationships.~~service existing loans currently on our balance sheet.

In March 2019, the Company and the Bank completed the sale of the Bank’s retail branch located in San Marcos, California and business loan portfolio to HomeStreet Bank. This transaction generated a pre-tax gain on sale of $5.5 million and reduced total loans by $115.4 million and total deposits by $74.5 million. Further, on June 28, 2019, the Company consolidated its La Mesa Business Banking Center into its La Jolla headquarters branch office, resulting in the Company having only one branch location.

Digital Currency Initiative

We leverage the SEN and our management team’s expertise in the digital currency industry to develop, implement and maintain critical financial infrastructure solutions and services for many of the largest U.S. digital currency exchanges and global investors, as well as other digital currency infrastructure providers that utilize the Company as a foundational layer for their products. The SEN is a central element of the operations of our digital currency related customers, which enables us to grow with our existing customers and to attract new customers who can benefit from our innovative solutions and services. We believe that our ~~management team’s~~ vision and ~~our~~ advanced approach to compliance complement the SEN and empower us to extend our leadership position in the industry by developing additional infrastructure solutions and services that will facilitate growth in our business.

We began exploring the digital currency industry in 2013 based on market dynamics which we believed were highly attractive:


•	Significant and Growing Industry: Digital currency presented a revolutionary model for executing financial transactions with substantial potential for growth.


•	Infrastructure Needs: In order to become widely adopted, digital currency would need to rely on many traditional elements of financial services, including those services that support funds transfers, customer account controls and other security measures.


•	Regulatory Complexity as a Barrier to Entry: Providing infrastructure solutions and services to the digital currency industry would require specialized compliance capabilities and a management team with a deep understanding of both the digital currency and the financial services industries.

These insights have been proven correct and we believe they remain true today. In fact, we believe that the market opportunity for digital currencies, the need for infrastructure solutions and services and the regulatory complexity have all expanded significantly since 2013. Our ability to address these market dynamics over the past six years has provided us with a first-mover advantage within the digital currency industry that is the cornerstone of our leadership position today.

Digital Currency Customers

Our customer base has grown rapidly, as many customers proactively approach us due to our reputation as the leading provider of innovative financial infrastructure solutions and services to participants in the digital currency industry, which includes our unique technology solutions. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~250~~over 200 prospective digital currency ~~customers~~customer leads in various stages of our customer onboarding process and pipeline, which includes extensive regulatory compliance diligence and integrating of the customer’s technology stack for those new digital currency customers interested in using our API.

The following ~~chart~~list sets forth summary information regarding the types of market participants who are our primary customers:


•	Digital Currency Exchanges: Exchanges through which digital currencies are bought and sold; includes over-the-counter, or OTC, trading desks.


•	Institutional Investors: Hedge funds, venture capital funds, private equity funds, family offices and traditional asset managers, which are investing in digital currencies as an asset class.


•	Other Customers: Companies developing new protocols, platforms and applications; mining operations; and providers of other services.

Our customers include some of the largest U.S. exchanges and global investors in the digital currency industry. These market participants generally hold either or both of two distinct types of funds: (i) those funds that market participants use for digital currency investment activities, which we refer to as investor funds, and (ii) those funds that market participants use for business operations, which we refer to as operating funds.

Our customer ecosystem also includes software developers, digital currency miners, custodians and general industry participants that need our solutions and services.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is based upon our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances, results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. ~~There~~Other than uncertainty related to COVID-19, there have been no significant changes during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s ~~prospectus dated November 6, 2019 and~~Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on ~~November 8, 2019, relating to its initial public offering (“IPO”).~~March 10, 2020.

Accounting policies, as described in detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, included in the Company’s ~~prospectus dated November 6, 2019 and filed with the SEC~~Annual Report on ~~November 8, 2019,~~Form 10-K, are an integral part of our financial statements. A thorough understanding of these accounting policies is essential when reviewing our reported results of operations and our financial position. We believe that ~~the~~those critical accounting policies and estimates ~~discussed below~~ require us to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Changes in these estimates, which are likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we could have reasonably used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $21.2 million, an increase of $6.9 million or 48.5% from net income of $14.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $9.8 million or 19.1% in interest income and ~~a $7.1~~$0.3 million increase in noninterest income, ~~partially offset by a $3.2 million or 134.0% increase in interest expense, a $4.5 million or 13.0% increase in noninterest expense and a $2.8 million increase in income tax expense,~~ all as described below.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Analysis (Taxable Equivalent Basis)

We analyze our ability to maximize income generated from interest earning assets and control the interest expenses of our liabilities, measured as net interest income, through our net interest margin and net interest spread. Net interest income is the difference between the interest and fees earned on interest earning assets, such as loans, interest earning deposits in other banks and securities, and the interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings, which are used to fund those assets. Net interest margin is a ratio calculated as net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the same period. Net interest spread is the difference between average interest rates earned on interest earning assets and average interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.

Changes in market interest rates and the interest rates we earn on interest earning assets or pay on interest bearing liabilities, as well as in the volume and types of interest earning assets, interest bearing and noninterest bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity, are usually the largest drivers of periodic changes in net interest income, net interest margin and net interest spread. Fluctuations in market interest rates are driven by many factors, including governmental monetary policies, inflation, deflation, macroeconomic developments, changes in unemployment, the money supply, political and international conditions and conditions in domestic and foreign financial markets. Periodic changes in the volume and types of loans in our loan portfolio are affected by, among other factors, economic and competitive conditions in the Southern California region, developments affecting the real estate, technology, hospitality, tourism and financial services sectors within our target markets and throughout the Southern California region, the volume and availability of residential loan pools and non-qualified residential loans and mortgage banker relationships. Our ability to respond to changes in these factors by using effective asset-liability management techniques is critical to maintaining the stability of our net interest income and net interest margin as our primary sources of earnings.

The following tables show the average outstanding balance of each principal category of our assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity, together with the average yields on our assets and the average costs of our liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and cost are calculated by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of the associated assets or liabilities for the same period.

Tax-exempt income from securities is calculated on a taxable equivalent basis. Net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin are presented on a taxable equivalent basis to consistently reflect income from taxable securities and tax-exempt securities based on the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0%.

(1)	Interest income on tax-exempt securities is presented on a taxable equivalent basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% for all periods presented.

Net interest income ~~increased $0.5~~on a taxable equivalent basis decreased $1.1 million to ~~$18.4~~$16.5 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$18.0~~$17.6 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, due to ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$2.7~~$1.0 million in interest income ~~partially offset by~~and an increase of ~~$2.2~~$0.1 million in interest expense.

Average total interest earning assets increased ~~$217.1~~$130.6 million or ~~11.2%~~6.6%, ~~from $1.9 billion~~ for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018~~2020 as compared to ~~$2.2 billion for~~ the ~~three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was~~same period in 2019 primarily due to ~~an increase~~increases in ~~average balance of~~ securities and loans ~~partly~~ offset by ~~a decrease~~decreases in interest earning deposits in other banks. The increase in securities was driven by the purchase of fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities and adjustable rate residential mortgage-backed securities, while the increase in loans was primarily driven by an increase in mortgage warehouse loans, partly offset by a decrease in commercial loans related to the sale of the San Marcos branch in the first quarter of 2019. Yields on earning assets benefited from the increase in securities relative to interest earnings deposits in other banks, and from an overall increase in higher yielding loans. Interest earning deposits in other banks decreased $305.2 million from $770.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to $465.2 million three months ended September 30, 2019. The movement in these asset classes was primarily due to the implementation of the Bank’s hedging strategy beginning in March 2019. For a further discussion of our hedging strategy, see “—Financial Condition—Securities.” The average annualized yield on total interest earning assets ~~increased~~decreased from ~~3.82%~~3.94% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018~~2019 to ~~3.93%~~3.51% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2020 primarily due to lower yields on interest earning deposits in other banks, securities and loans. The lower yields were due to declines in federal funds rate and London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), which was partially offset by the impact of interest rate floors which were put in place during 2019.

Average interest bearing liabilities ~~increased $241.3~~decreased $62.3 million or ~~94.1%~~18.0% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 as compared to the same period in ~~2018~~2019 primarily due to calling the ~~implementation~~remaining balance of ~~the Bank’s hedging strategy. The increase in interest bearing deposits was primarily due to the issuance of callable~~ brokered certificates of ~~deposits, which were~~deposit used ~~to fund the fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities, both associated with~~in our hedging ~~strategy.~~strategy, as discussed further below. The average annualized rate on total interest bearing liabilities increased to ~~2.35%~~2.78% for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~1.14%~~2.20% for the same period in ~~2018~~2019, primarily due to ~~interest on callable~~the impact of calling the remaining outstanding balance of brokered certificates of deposits, ~~associated with our hedging strategy.~~and the acceleration of the related $1.2 million in premium expense.

For the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the net interest spread was ~~1.58%~~0.73% and the net interest margin was ~~3.39%~~3.14% compared to ~~2.68%~~1.74% and ~~3.67%~~3.56%, respectively, for the comparable period in ~~2018.~~2019. The ~~decrease in the net interest spread and~~ net interest margin indecrease from the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of lower federal funds rates and LIBOR on our interest earning assets and $1.2 million of premium expense associated with calling our brokered certificates of deposit, partially mitigated by decreased Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and other borrowing expense and the effects associated with the hedging strategy, which included the impacts of reducing the balance of the callable brokered certificates of ~~deposits associated~~deposit, along with ~~our hedging strategy.~~the benefit derived from the interest rate floors.

Net interest income ~~increased $6.6~~on a taxable equivalent basis decreased $4.9 million to ~~$55.3~~$32.0 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$48.8~~$36.9 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, due to ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$9.8~~$1.0 million in interest income ~~partially offset by~~and an increase of ~~$3.2~~$3.9 million in interest expense.

This increase was~~same period in 2019 primarily due to ~~the inflow of noninterest bearing deposits related to our digital currency initiative which were invested~~increases in securities and loans offset by decreases in interest earning ~~deposits.~~

deposits in other banks. The average balance of securities increased from ~~$248.6~~$480.5 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018~~2019 to

~~$633.7~~ $915.4 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 while the average balance of interest bearing deposits in other banks decreased from ~~$770.4~~$582.4 million to ~~$465.2~~$201.3 million over the same time period. The movement in these asset classes was primarily due to the implementation of the ~~Bank’s~~Company’s hedging strategy, ~~during~~intended to protect earnings in a declining interest rate environment that was implemented starting in March 2019. The total balances of the ~~first nine months~~original hedging strategy included the purchase of ~~2019.~~$400.0 million in notional amount of interest rate floors, $350.4 million in fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities and issuing $325.0 million of callable brokered certificates of deposit. The average annualized yield on total interest earning assets ~~increased~~decreased from 4.05% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to 3.61% for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018 to 4.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019~~2020 primarily due to lower yields on interest ~~on callable brokered certificates~~earning deposits ~~associated with our hedging strategy.~~in other banks and securities as well as loans. The lower yields were due to declines in federal funds rate and LIBOR which was partially offset by the interest rate floors. In February 2020, the Company sold $200.0 million of its total $400.0 million notional amount of interest rate floors, which resulted in a net gain of $8.4 million, to be recognized over the weighted average remaining term of 4.1 years. The sale of the floors secured the benefit of lower interest rates at the time of the sale.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased ~~$66.6~~$113.9 million or ~~22.7%~~39.2% for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 as compared to the same period in ~~2018~~2019 primarily due to an increase in interest bearing deposits between periods, and an increase in FHLB advances and other borrowings. The average annualized rate on total interest bearing liabilities increased to ~~2.08%~~3.25% for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~1.09%~~1.84% for the same period in ~~2018~~.

~~For the nine months ended September 30,~~ 2019, the net interest spread was 1.93% and the net interest margin was 3.64% compared to 2.52% and 3.45%, respectively, for the comparable period in 2018. The decrease in the net interest spread in the nine months ended September 30, 2019~~was~~ primarily due to the callable brokered certificates of deposits associated with our hedging ~~strategy~~strategy. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company called the remaining balance of the callable brokered certificates of deposit, which resulted in the recognition of $3.4 million of premium amortization in interest expense. The accelerated impact of premium expense on brokered certificates of deposit was partially offset by lower rates which resulted from calling and reissuing in prior periods.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the net interest spread was 0.36% and the net interest margin was 3.00% compared to 2.21% and 3.78%, respectively, for the comparable period in 2019. The decrease in the net interest spread and net interest margin in the six months ended June 30, 2020.was primarily due to the impact of lower federal funds rates and LIBOR on our interest earning assets, $3.4 million of premium expense associated with calling our brokered certificates of deposit, partially mitigated by decreased FHLB advances and other borrowings expense and the combined effects associated with the hedging strategy, which included the impacts of calling and reissuing a portion of the brokered callable certificates of deposit, along with the benefit derived from the interest rate floors.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is a charge ~~or reversal~~ to income to bring our allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. For a description of the factors considered by our management in determining the allowance for loan losses see “—Financial Condition—Allowance for Loan Losses”.

We recorded a ~~reversal of $0.9 million and no~~ provision for loan losses of $0.2 million for each of the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018, respectively.~~2019. We recorded ~~a reversal of $0.4 million and~~ a provision for loan losses ~~$0.1~~of $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. The allowance for loan losses to total gross loans held-for-investment was ~~0.89%~~0.85% at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~1.21%~~1.02% at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018.~~2019. The ~~reversal~~provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was based on modest increases in loans held-for-investment, our historically strong credit quality and minimal loan charge-offs, and the low to moderate loan-to-value margins in our commercial, multi-family and one-to-four family real estate held-for-investment loan portfolios, as evidenced by weighted average loan-to-value ratios in the low- to mid-50% range. Although there is significant uncertainty in the current economic environment due to ~~improvements in qualitative factors related~~the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe the relatively low to moderate loan-to-value ratios, along with only modest exposure to the retail and hospitality sectors, provides lower probability of loss in the event of defaults in our loan portfolio. The Company will continue to monitor trends in its portfolio ~~and the continued low charge-off rates.~~segments for any known or probable adverse conditions.

Income Tax Expense

The amount of income tax expense we incur is influenced by the amounts of our pre-tax income, and other nondeductible expenses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at current income tax rates in effect for the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, such as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Income tax expense was ~~$2.6~~$1.8 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$2.5~~$1.7 million for the three ~~nine~~ months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018.~~2019.

Income tax expense was ~~$8.3~~$3.6 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$5.5~~$5.7 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018.

Securities

We use our securities portfolio to provide a source of liquidity, provide an appropriate return on funds invested, manage interest rate risk, meet collateral requirements and meet regulatory capital ~~requirements and as part of our recently implemented hedging strategy.~~requirements.

Management classifies investment securities as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale based on our intentions and the Company’s ability to hold such securities until maturity. In determining such classifications, securities that management has the positive intent and the Company has the ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost. All other securities are designated as available-for-sale and carried at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in shareholders’ equity on an after-tax basis. For the years presented, ~~substantially~~ all securities were classified as available-for-sale.

Our securities available-for-sale increased ~~$552.7~~$53.3 million, or ~~154.8%~~5.9%, from ~~$357.2~~$897.8 million at December 31, ~~2018~~2019 to ~~$909.9~~$951.1 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. To supplement interest income earned on our loan portfolio, we invest in high quality mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, municipal bonds and asset backed securities. Our securities portfolio has grown substantially due to the implementation of a hedging strategy and utilizing cash to purchase high quality available-for-sale securities. ~~In March 2019,~~During the ~~Bank implemented a hedging strategy that includes purchases~~six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company sold $216.4 million of interest rate floors and commercial mortgage-backed securities, primarily funded by callable brokered certificates of deposit. We entered into repurchase agreements to temporarily fund the purchase of securities while waiting for executed callable brokered certificates of deposit to settle. This hedging strategy is intended to reduce the Bank’s exposure to a decline in earnings in a declining interest rate environment with a minimal impact on current earnings. At September 30, 2019, we purchased $400.0 million in notional amount of interest rate floors, $350.4 million in fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities and ~~issued $325.0~~realized a gain on sale of $3.8 million. These securities were originally purchased as part of the hedging strategy in 2019. The proceeds from these sales were reinvested in $249.6 million of ~~callable brokered certificates of deposit related to this hedging strategy. The callable brokered certificates of deposit had an unamortized premium of $2.3 million and~~highly rated fixed-rate tax-exempt municipal bonds at higher tax-equivalent yields than the commercial mortgage-backed securities that were sold. All municipal bonds purchased are general obligation, revenue or essential purpose bonds that have ~~an average life of 4.2 year as of September 30, 2019. These certificates of deposit are initially callable six months after issuance and monthly thereafter. The initial~~ call dates ~~for all callable brokered certificates of deposit are from October 2019 through January 2020. At September 30, 2019, we held~~or maturities in less than 11 years. The municipal bonds that were purchased have similar average lives as the commercial mortgage-backed securities that were sold. Such fixed rate investments help mitigate a ~~total of $196.0 million~~decline in ~~callable certificates of deposit~~interest income in a declining rate environment and ~~$1.3~~provide higher returns compared to lower yielding cash and cash alternatives. The Company also purchased $15.8 million of ~~related unamortized premium,~~highly rated fixed-rate taxable municipal bonds and entered into a series of interest rate swaps, which ~~was subsequently called after~~are accounted for as fair value hedges, to convert the ~~end of the third quarter.~~bonds from fixed to floating rate yields. In addition, wethe Company purchased ~~$214.8~~$13.2 million ~~in adjustable rate residential~~of fixed-rate commercial mortgage-backed securities ~~during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and sold $30.0 million of residential and commercial government agency collateralized mortgage obligations.~~

Loan Portfolio

Our primary source of income is derived from interest earned on loans. Our loan portfolio consists primarily of loans secured by real estate and mortgage warehouse ~~loans, as well as commercial and industrial~~ loans. Our loan customers primarily consist of small- to medium-sized businesses, professionals, real estate investors, small residential builders and individuals. Our owner-occupied and investment commercial real estate loans, multi-family loans and commercial and industrial loans provide us with higher risk-adjusted returns, relatively shorter maturities and more sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations, and are complemented by our relatively lower risk residential real estate loans to individuals. Our commercial real estate, multi-family real estate, construction and commercial and industrial lending activities are ~~principally~~primarily directed to our market area of Southern California. Our one-to-four family residential loans and warehouse loans are sourced throughout the United States.

In the first quarter of 2020, we began offering a new pilot product called SEN Leverage, which will allow Silvergate customers to obtain U.S. dollar loans collateralized by bitcoin held at select digital currency exchanges or custodians that are also Silvergate customers. We plan to expand this offering in the latter part of 2020. The outstanding balance of SEN Leverage loans was $20.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and is included in the commercial and industrial loan segment.

The following table summarizes our loan portfolio by loan segment as of the dates indicated:

Nonperforming Assets

Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether such loans are actually past due. In general, we place loans on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due. We also place loans on nonaccrual status if they are less than 90 days past due if the collection of principal or interest is in doubt. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed from income.

Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments received exceed principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are, in management’s opinion, reasonably assured. Any loan which the Bank deems to be uncollectible, in whole or in part, is charged off to the extent of the anticipated loss. Loans that are past due for 180 days or more are charged off unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection.

We believe our disciplined lending approach and focused management of nonperforming assets has resulted in sound asset quality and timely resolution of problem assets. We have several procedures in place to assist us in maintaining the overall quality of our loan portfolio. We have established underwriting guidelines to be followed by our ~~bankers,~~loan officers, and we also monitor our delinquency levels for any negative or adverse trends. There can be no assurance, however, that our loan portfolio will not become subject to increasing pressures from deteriorating borrower credit due to general economic conditions.

Nonperforming loans decreased to ~~$6.7~~$4.5 million, or ~~0.96%~~0.57% of total loans, at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$8.3~~$5.9 million, or ~~1.39%~~0.88% of total loans, at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The decrease in nonperforming loans during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 was due to principal repayments on nonperforming commercial and industrial loans ~~offset partially by an increase in~~and payoffs on one-to-four family ~~nonaccrual~~real estate loans.

Other real estate owned ~~increased to $81,000~~was $51,000 as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$31,000~~$0.1 million at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Total nonperforming assets were ~~$6.8~~$4.6 million and ~~$8.3~~$6.0 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively, or ~~0.32%~~0.20% and ~~0.42%~~0.28%, respectively, of total assets.

Loans Grading

From a credit risk standpoint, we grade watchlist and problem loans into one of five categories: pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. The classifications of loans reflect a judgment about the risks of default and loss associated with the loan. We review the ratings on credits regularly. Ratings are adjusted regularly to reflect the degree of risk and loss that our management believes to be appropriate for each credit. Our methodology is structured so that specific reserve allocations are increased in accordance with deterioration in credit quality (and a corresponding increase in risk and loss) or decreased in accordance with improvement in credit quality (and a corresponding decrease in risk and loss). The Bank uses the following definitions for watch list risk ratings:


•	Pass. Loans in all classes that are not adversely rated, are contractually current as to principal and interest, and are otherwise in compliance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management believes that there is a low likelihood of loss related to those loans that are considered pass.


•	Special Mention. A special mention loan has potential weaknesses deserving of management’s close attention. If uncorrected, such weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in our credit position at some future date.


•	Substandard. A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current financial condition and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.


•	Doubtful. A doubtful loan has all weaknesses inherent in one classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.


•	Loss. Credits rated as loss are charged-off. We have no expectation of the recovery of any payments in respect of credits rated as loss.

The following table presents the loan balances by segment as well as risk rating. No assets were classified as loss during the periods presented.

Loan Reviews and Problem Loan ~~Management.~~Management

Our credit administration staff conducts meetings at least ~~eight~~four times a year to review asset quality and loan delinquencies. The Bank’s Lending and Collection Policy requires that we perform annual reviews of every loan of ~~$250,000~~$500,000 or more not rated special mention or adversely classified. Individual loan reviews encompass a loan’s payment status and history,

current and projected paying capacity of the borrower and/or guarantor(s), current condition and estimated value of any collateral, sufficiency of credit and collateral documentation, and compliance with Bank and regulatory lending standards. Loan reviewers assign an overall loan risk rating from one of the Bank’s loan rating categories and prepare a written report summarizing the ~~review, with any work papers related to the review retained.~~review.

Once a loan is identified as a problem loan or a loan requiring a workout, the Bank makes an evaluation and develops a plan for handling the loan. In developing such a plan, management reviews all relevant information from the loan file and any loan review reports. We have a conversation with the borrower and update current and projected financial information (including borrower global cash flows when possible) and collateral valuation estimates. Following analysis of all available relevant information, management adopts an action plan from the following alternatives: (a) continuation of loan collection efforts on their existing terms, (b) a restructure of the loan’s terms, (c) a sale of the loan, (d) a charge off or partial charge off, (e) foreclosure on pledged collateral, or (f) acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.

Impaired Loans and TDRs. Impaired loans also include certain loans that have been modified as ~~troubled debt restructurings, or~~ TDRs. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company held seven loans amounting to $1.6 million, which were TDRs, compared to nine loans amounting to $1.8 million ~~which were TDRs compared to seven loans amounting to $0.5 million~~ at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

A loan is identified as a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and, for economic or legal reasons related to these difficulties, the Company grants a concession to the borrower in the restructuring that it would not otherwise consider. The Company has granted a concession when, as a result of the restructuring, it does not expect to collect all amounts due or within the time periods originally due under the original contract, including one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a temporary forbearance with regard to the payment of principal or interest. All TDRs are reviewed for potential impairment. Generally, a nonaccrual loan that is restructured remains on nonaccrual status for a minimum period of six months to demonstrate that the borrower can perform under the restructured terms. If the borrower’s performance under the new terms is not reasonably assured, the loan remains classified as a nonaccrual loan. Loans classified as TDRs are reported as impaired loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses that represents management’s best estimate of the loan losses and risks inherent in our loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance for loan losses should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs in future periods will necessarily occur in those amounts, or at all. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we estimate losses on specific loans, or groups of loans, where the probable loss can be identified and reasonably determined. The balance of the allowance for loan losses is based on internally assigned risk classifications of loans, historical loan loss rates, changes in the nature of our loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, current economic factors and the estimated impact of current economic conditions on certain historical loan loss rates.

In reviewing our loan portfolio, we consider risk elements attributable to particular loan types or categories in assessing the quality of individual loans. Some of the risk elements we consider include:

For residential mortgage loans, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, including a consideration of the debt-to-income ratio and employment and income stability, the loan-to-value ratio, and the age, condition and marketability of the collateral;

For commercial and multi-family mortgage loans, the debt service coverage ratio, operating results of the owner in the case of owner-occupied properties, the loan-to-value ratio, the age and condition of the collateral and the volatility of income, property value and future operating results typical of properties of that type;

For construction loans, the perceived feasibility of the project including the ability to sell improvements constructed for resale, the quality and nature of contracts for presale, if any, experience and ability of the builder, loan-to-cost ratio and loan-to-value ratio;

For commercial and industrial loans, the debt service coverage ratio (income from the business exceeding operating expenses compared to loan repayment requirements), the operating results of the commercial or professional enterprise, the borrower’s business, professional and financial ability and expertise, the specific risks and volatility of income and operating results typical for businesses in that category and the value, nature and marketability of ~~collateral;~~collateral, risks related to new product offerings such as loans secured by bitcoin and the volatility of this particular collateral type; and

For mortgage warehouse loans held-for-investment, despite our negligible loss history, we provide a loss allowance factor subject to quarterly adjustment. Mortgage warehouse loans held-for-sale are not subject to any loan loss ~~allowance.~~

allowance and are recorded at lower of cost or fair market value.

Our allowance for loan losses at ~~September~~June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 ~~and September 30, 2018~~ was ~~$6.2~~$6.8 million and ~~$8.4~~$7.0 million, respectively, or ~~0.89%~~0.85% and ~~1.21%~~1.02% of loans for each respective period-end. The decrease in the ratio allowance for loan losses to gross loans held-for-investment from June 30, 2019 was due to the change in mix in our loan portfolio.

We had ~~$93,000~~$17,000 in charge-offs and no recoveries for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019 compared to charge-offs of $6,000~~2020 and ~~$81,000 of recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.~~2019.

Although we believe that we have established our allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP and that the allowance for loan losses was adequate to provide for known and inherent losses in the portfolio at all times shown above, future provisions for loan losses will be subject to ongoing evaluations of the risks in our loan portfolio.

The following table shows the allocation of the allowance for loan losses among loan categories and certain other information as of the dates indicated. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any loan category.

Deposits

Deposits are the major source of funding for the Company. We offer a variety of deposit products including interest and noninterest bearing demand accounts, money market and savings accounts and certificates of deposit, all of which we market at competitive pricing. We generate deposits from our customers on a relationship basis and through the efforts of our commercial lending ~~officers and our business banking~~ officers. Deposits ~~remained flat~~decreased to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2020 compared to $1.8 billion ~~at September 30, 2019 compared to~~ December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. Noninterest bearing deposits totaled ~~$1.4~~$1.6 billion (representing approximately ~~75.5%~~93.6% of total deposits) at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, compared to ~~$1.6~~$1.3 billion (representing approximately ~~88.7%~~74.0% of total deposits) at December 31, ~~2018. Total~~2019. At June 30, 2020, deposits ~~increased slightly due~~by foreign depositors amounted to ~~the issuance~~$650.4 million or 32.5% of ~~$325.0~~total deposits. The decrease in total deposits from December 31, 2019 was driven by a $322.4 million decrease in our callable brokered certificates of deposit ~~associated with~~which were called during the ~~implementation of a hedging strategy,~~six months ended June 30, 2020, offset by ~~the sale of the San Marcos branch, which reduced total deposits by $74.5 million. The decrease in noninterest bearing deposits reflect changes~~an increase in deposit levels offrom our digital currency customers. ~~While deposits may fluctuate in the ordinary course of business, we continue to add new digital currency customers each quarter.~~

The following table presents a breakdown of our digital currency customer base and the deposits held by such customers at the dates noted below:

~~The funding related to the success of the digital currency initiative has substantially reduced our cost of funds and allowed us to focus on retaining lower cost deposits.~~ Our cost of total deposits and our cost of funds was ~~0.29%~~0.62% and ~~0.41%~~0.68%, respectively, for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 as compared to ~~0.11%~~0.18% and ~~0.18%~~0.30%, respectively, for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2018.~~2019. The increase in the weighted average cost of deposits compared to the prior period was driven by the addition of new callable brokered certificates of deposit associated with a hedging strategy and the acceleration of $3.4 million premium amortization expense recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 from calling the brokered certificates of deposits, as discussed in ~~“Financial Condition—Securities”~~“—Results of Operations—Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Analysis” above. ~~For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the hedging strategy increased the cost of deposits by 22 basis points due to the funding of the strategy with callable brokered certificates of deposit.~~

Borrowings

We primarily utilize short-term and long-term borrowings to supplement deposits to fund our lending and investment activities, each of which is discussed below.

FHLB Advances. The FHLB allows us to borrow up to 35% of the Bank’s assets on a blanket floating lien status collateralized by certain securities and loans. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, approximately ~~$695.7 million~~$1.0 billion in real estate loans were pledged as collateral for our FHLB borrowings. We utilize these borrowings to meet liquidity needs and to fund certain fixed rate loans in our ~~portfolio as needed. As of September~~portfolio. At June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$529.4~~$360.0 million in outstanding FHLB advances and had an additional $193.3 million in available borrowing capacity from the FHLB. ~~Our use of FHLB advances has been significantly reduced due to the inflow of noninterest bearing deposits. At September 30, 2019, we had $20.0 million in outstanding FHLB advances.~~

The following table sets forth certain information on our FHLB borrowings during the periods presented:

FHLB ADVANCES

Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The FRB has an available borrower in custody arrangement that allows us to borrow on a collateralized basis. The Company’s borrowing capacity under the Federal Reserve’s discount window program

was ~~$7.4~~$4.5 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. Certain commercial loans are pledged under this arrangement. We maintain this borrowing arrangement to meet liquidity needs pursuant to our contingency funding plan. No advances were outstanding under this facility as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

The Company has also issued subordinated debentures ~~obtained a term loan, entered into repurchase agreements~~ and ~~purchased~~has access to borrow federal ~~funds.~~funds or lines of credit with correspondent banks. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, these borrowings amounted to ~~$19.8~~$15.8 million.

~~Notes Payable.~~ On January 29, 2016, the Company obtained a term loan from a commercial bank with a single principal advance of $8.0 million due to mature on January 29, 2021. Loan interest and principal is payable quarterly commencing April 2016 and accrues interest at an annual rate equal to 2.60% plus the greater of zero percent and the one-month LIBOR rate. As of September 30, 2019, the one-month LIBOR rate was 2.02%. The proceeds were used to redeem preferred stock and can be prepaid at any time. The outstanding principal at September 30, 2019 was $4.0 million. Annual principal payments on outstanding borrowings are $1.1 million in 2019, $1.1 million in 2020 and $2.6 million in 2021.

Subordinated Debentures. A trust formed by the Company issued $12.5 million of floating rate trust preferred securities in July 2001 as part of a pooled offering of such securities. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for its proceeds from the offering. The debentures and related accrued interest represent substantially all the assets of the trust. The subordinated debentures bear interest at six-month LIBOR plus 375 basis points, which adjusts every six months in January and July of each year. Interest is payable semiannually. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the interest rate for the Company’s next scheduled payment was ~~5.94%~~5.51%, based on six-month LIBOR of ~~2.19%~~1.76%. On any January 25 or July 25 the Company may redeem the 2001 subordinated debentures at 100% of principal amount plus accrued interest. The 2001 subordinated debentures mature on July 25, 2031.

A second trust formed by the Company issued $3.0 million of trust preferred securities in January 2005 as part of a pooled offering of such securities. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for its proceeds from the offering. The debentures and related accrued interest represent substantially all the assets of the trust. The subordinated debentures bear interest at three-month LIBOR plus 185 basis points, which adjusts every three months. Interest is payable quarterly. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the interest rate for the Company’s next scheduled payment was ~~3.97%~~2.16%, based on three-month LIBOR of ~~2.12%~~0.31%. On the 15th day of any March, June, September, or December, the Company may redeem the 2005 subordinated debentures at 100% of principal amount plus accrued interest. The 2005 subordinated debentures mature on March 15, 2035.

Other Borrowings. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had no outstanding balance of ~~repurchase agreements or~~ federal funds purchased and had available lines of credit of ~~$32.0~~$68.0 million with other correspondent banks.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Liquidity is defined as the Bank’s capacity to meet its cash and collateral obligations at a reasonable cost. Maintaining an adequate level of liquidity depends on the Bank’s ability to meet both expected and unexpected cash flows and collateral needs efficiently without adversely affecting either daily operations or the financial condition of the Bank. Liquidity risk is the risk that we will be unable to meet our obligations as they become due because of an inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding. The Bank’s obligations, and the funding sources used to meet them, depend significantly on our business mix, balance sheet structure and the cash flow profiles of our on- and off-balance sheet obligations. In managing our cash flows, management regularly confronts situations that can give rise to increased liquidity risk. These include funding mismatches, market constraints on the ability to convert assets into cash or in accessing sources of funds (i.e., market liquidity) and contingent liquidity events. Changes in economic conditions or exposure to credit, market, operation, legal and reputational risks also could affect the Bank’s liquidity risk profile and are considered in the assessment of liquidity and asset/liability management.

We maintain high levels of liquidity for our customers who operate in the digital currency industry, as these deposits are subject to potentially dramatic fluctuations due to certain factors that may be outside of our control. As a result, our investment portfolio is comprised primarily of mortgage-backed securities backed by government-sponsored entities, collateralized mortgage obligations, municipal bonds, and asset-backed securities.

Management has established a comprehensive management process for identifying, measuring, monitoring and controlling liquidity risk. Because of its critical importance to the viability of the Bank, liquidity risk management is fully integrated into our risk management processes. Critical elements of our liquidity risk management include: effective corporate governance consisting of oversight by the board of directors and active involvement by management; appropriate strategies, policies, procedures, and limits used to manage and mitigate liquidity risk; comprehensive liquidity risk measurement and monitoring systems (including assessments of the current and prospective cash flows or sources and uses of funds) that are commensurate with the complexity and business activities of the Bank; active management of intraday liquidity and collateral; an appropriately diverse mix of existing and potential future funding sources; adequate levels of highly liquid marketable securities free of legal, regulatory or operational impediments, that can be used to meet liquidity needs in stressful situations;

comprehensive contingency funding plans that sufficiently address potential adverse liquidity events and emergency cash flow requirements; and internal controls and internal audit processes sufficient to determine the adequacy of the institution’s liquidity risk management process.

The movement of funds on our balance sheet among different SEN deposit customers does not reduce the Bank’s deposits and thus does not present liquidity issues or require any borrowing by the Company or the Bank. In addition, to the extent that SEN participants fully withdraw funds from the Bank, no material liquidity issues or borrowing needs would be presented since the majority of SEN deposit funds are held in cash or other ~~short duration~~ liquid ~~assets.~~assets, such as available-for-sale securities.

We expect funds to be available from basic banking activity sources, including the core deposit base, the repayment and maturity of loans and investment security cash flows. Other potential funding sources include borrowings from the FHLB, the FRB, other lines of credit and ~~if necessary,~~ brokered certificates of deposit. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$20.0~~$360.0 million in outstanding FHLB advances. We did not have any borrowings outstanding with the FRB at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019 and our borrowing capacity is limited only by eligible collateral.~~2020. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$529.4~~an additional $193.3 million of available borrowing capacity from the FHLB, ~~$7.4~~$4.5 million of available borrowing capacity from the FRB and available lines of credit of ~~$32.0~~$68.0 million with other correspondent banks. Cash and cash equivalents at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 were ~~$160.3~~$199.4 million. Accordingly, our liquidity resources were at sufficient levels to fund loans and meet other cash needs as necessary.

Capital Resources

Shareholders’ equity increased ~~$39.4~~$37.1 million to ~~$230.6~~$268.1 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$191.2~~$231.0 million at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to net income for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, which amounted to ~~$21.2~~$9.9 million and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of ~~$18.2~~$26.9 million. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive income was primarily due to unrealized gains ~~in the securities~~on derivatives purchased in connection with ~~the Bank’s~~our hedging ~~strategy.~~strategy and unrealized gains on our available-for-sale securities portfolio.

The ~~Company and the~~ Bank ~~are~~is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the ~~Company and the~~ Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of ~~their~~its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the ~~Company and the~~ Bank to maintain minimum ratios of common equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and total capital as a percentage of assets and off-balance sheet exposures, adjusted for risk weights ranging from 0% to 1,250%. The ~~Company and the~~ Bank ~~are~~is also required to maintain capital at a minimum level based on quarterly average assets, which is known as the leverage ratio.

In July 2013, federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule that revised their risk-based capital requirements and the method for calculating risk-weighted assets to make them consistent with certain standards that were developed by Basel III and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rule currently applies to all depository institutions and bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies with total consolidated assets of more than $3 billion. ~~While the~~The Company ~~was~~has total consolidated assets of less than $3 billion and is currently exempt from the consolidated capital ~~requirements at September 30, 2019, it is not eligible for the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement due to the issuance of common stock in its recent initial public offering.~~requirements.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019, the Company and~~2020, the Bank ~~were~~was in compliance with all applicable regulatory capital requirements to which ~~they were~~it was subject, and ~~the Bank~~ was classified as “well capitalized” for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations. As we deploy our capital and continue to grow our operations, our regulatory capital levels may decrease depending on our level of earnings. However, we intend to monitor and control our growth to remain in compliance with all regulatory capital standards applicable to us.

The following table presents the regulatory capital ratios for the Company (assuming minimum capital adequacy ratios were applicable to the Company) and the Bank as of the dates indicated:

Off-Balance Sheet Items

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in our consolidated statements of financial condition. We enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and issue letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk exceeding the amounts recognized in our consolidated statements of financial condition. Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amounts of these commitments. The same credit policies and procedures are used in making these commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments. We are not aware of any accounting loss to be incurred by funding these commitments; however, we maintain an allowance for off-balance sheet credit risk which is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. For details of our commitments to extend credit, and commercial and standby letters of credit, please refer to “Note 9—Commitments and Contingencies—Off-Balance Sheet Items” of the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional financial measures discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as being “non-GAAP financial measures.” We identify certain financial measures as non-GAAP financial measures if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, that are not included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our statements of operations, financial condition or

cash flows. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and other statistical measures or ratios that are calculated using exclusively financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain non-GAAP financial measures for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2020 and 2019 in order to present our results of operations for that period on a basis consistent with our historical operations. On November 15, 2018, the Company and the Bank entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with HomeStreet Bank to sell the Bank’s retail branch located in San Marcos, California and business loan portfolio to HomeStreet Bank. This transaction, which was completed in March 2019, generated a pre-tax gain on sale of $5.5 million. There ~~was~~were no ~~impact to~~non-GAAP adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 or for the three months ~~September~~ended June 30, 2019.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. However, non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations, are not necessarily comparable to GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting non-GAAP measures with similar names. You should understand how such other companies calculate their financial measures that may be similar or have names that are similar to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures. Our management uses the non-GAAP financial measures set forth below in its analysis of our performance.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Our Asset Liability Management Policy sets forth guidelines for effective funds management and establishes an approach for measuring and monitoring our net interest rate sensitivity.

Interest rate risk is the probability of an increase or decline in the value of an asset or liability due to fluctuations in interest rates. These fluctuations have an impact on both the level of interest income and interest expense as well as the market value of all interest earning assets and ~~interest bearing liabilities (excluding those with short-term maturities).~~liabilities. The objective is to measure

the impact that different interest rate scenarios

have on net interest income and ensure that the results are within policy limits while maximizing income. The results can be reflected as ~~a loss~~an increase or decrease of future net interest income or ~~a loss~~an increase or decrease of current fair market value.

Exposure to interest rates is managed by structuring the balance sheet in a ‘business as usual’ or ‘base case’ scenario. We do not enter into instruments such as leveraged derivatives, financial options or financial future contracts for the purpose of reducing interest rate risk. We hedge interest rate risk by utilizing interest rate floors and interest rate caps. The interest rate floors hedge our cash and securities and the interest rate caps hedge our subordinated debentures. Based on the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

Exposure to interest rate risk is managed by the Bank’s Asset Liability Management Committee, ~~or ALCO,~~ in accordance with policies approved by the board of directors. The committee formulates strategies based on appropriate levels of interest rate risk. In determining the appropriate level of interest rate risk, the committee considers the impact on earnings and capital under the current interest rate outlook, potential changes in interest rates, regional economies, liquidity, business strategies and other factors. The committee meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses, purchase and sale activities, commitments to originate loans, and the maturities of investments and borrowings. Additionally, the committee reviews liquidity, cash flow flexibility, maturities of deposits, and consumer and commercial deposit activity. Management employs methodologies to manage interest rate risk that include an analysis of relationships between interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as well as utilizing an interest rate simulation model where ~~the rates are shocked.~~various rate scenarios can be analyzed.

The following table indicates that, for periods less than one year, rate-sensitive assets exceed rate-sensitive liabilities, resulting in an asset-sensitive position. For a bank with an asset-sensitive position, or positive gap, rising interest rates would generally be expected to have a positive effect on net interest income, and falling interest rates would generally be expected to have the opposite effect. Due to our ~~significant~~ asset sensitive position, we have ~~hedged~~implemented a hedging strategy to reduce our interest rate risk exposure in a ~~decreasing~~declining rate ~~environment by implementing our hedging strategy. For a discussion of our hedging strategy, see “—Financial Condition—Securities.”~~environment.

We use quarterly Interest Rate Risk, or IRR, simulations to assess the impact of changing interest rates on our net interest income and net income under a variety of scenarios and time horizons. These simulations utilize both instantaneous and parallel changes in the level of interest rates, as well as non-parallel changes such as changing slopes and twists of the yield curve. Static simulation models are based on current exposures and assume a constant balance sheet with no new growth. Dynamic simulation models are also utilized that rely on detailed assumptions regarding changes in existing lines of business, new business, and changes in management and client behavior.

We also use economic value-based methodologies to measure the degree to which the economic values of the Bank’s positions change under different interest rate scenarios. The economic-value approach focuses on a longer-term time horizon and captures all future cash flows expected from existing assets and liabilities. The economic value model utilizes a static approach in that the analysis does not incorporate new business; rather, the analysis shows a snapshot in time of the risk inherent in the balance sheet.

Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our net interest income, such as asset prepayments, non-maturity deposit price sensitivity and decay rates, and key rate drivers. Because of the inherent use of these estimates and assumptions in the model, our actual results may, and most likely will, differ from our static IRR results. In addition, static IRR results do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates or client behavior. For example, as part of our asset/liability management strategy, management can increase asset duration and decrease liability duration to reduce asset sensitivity, or to decrease asset duration and increase liability duration in order to increase asset sensitivity.

The following table summarizes the results of our IRR analysis in simulating the change in net interest income and fair value of equity over a 12-month horizon as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019:~~2020:

Utilizing an economic value of equity, or EVE, approach, we analyze the risk to capital from the effects of various interest rate scenarios through a long-term discounted cash flow model. This measures the difference between the economic value of our assets and the economic value of our liabilities, which is a proxy for our liquidation value. While this provides some value as a risk measurement tool, management believes IRR is more appropriate in accordance with the going concern principle.

The following table illustrates the results of our EVE analysis as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures ~~(as~~as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

~~None.~~We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings. We are from time to time subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims and litigation may include, among other things, allegations of violation of banking and other applicable regulations, competition law, labor laws and consumer protection laws, as well as claims or litigation relating to intellectual property, securities, breach of contract and tort. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously against any pending or future claims and litigation.

In the current opinion of management, the likelihood is remote that the impact of such proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, one or more unfavorable outcomes in any claim or litigation against us could have a material adverse effect for the period in which they are resolved. In addition, regardless of their merits or their ultimate outcomes, such matters are costly, divert management’s attention and may materially adversely affect our reputation, even if resolved in our favor.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~In addition~~The section titled Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Form 10-K includes a discussion of the many risks and uncertainties we face, any one or more of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition (including capital and liquidity), or prospects or the value of or return on an investment in the Company. The information presented below provides an update to, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors and other information ~~set forth~~contained in our 2019 Form 10-K.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to periods of significant volatility in financial, commodities and other markets and could harm our business and results of operations.

In December 2019, COVID-19 was first reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Since then, COVID-19 infections have spread to additional countries including the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding this ~~report, you should carefully consider~~pandemic, it is difficult to predict the impact of the pandemic on our business, and there is no guarantee that our efforts to address or mitigate the adverse impacts of the coronavirus pandemic will be effective. The impact to date has included periods of significant volatility in financial, commodities and other ~~factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of~~markets. This volatility has had and, if it continues, could continue to have an adverse impact on our ~~registration statement~~customers and on ~~Form S-1 filed with the SEC on October 28, 2019 (333-228446) and declared effective by the SEC on November 6, 2019 (the “Registration Statement”), which could materially affect~~ our business, financial condition ~~and/~~and results of operations as well as our growth strategy.

Our business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of our customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. The spread of COVID-19 has caused and could continue to cause severe disruptions in the U.S. economy at large, and has resulted and may continue to result in disruptions to our customers’ businesses, and a decrease in consumer confidence and business generally. In addition, recent actions by U.S. federal, state and local governments to address the pandemic, including travel bans, stay-at-home orders and school, business and entertainment venue closures, has had and may continue to have a significant adverse effect on our customers and the markets in which we conduct our business. The extent of impacts resulting from the coronavirus pandemic and other events beyond our control will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus pandemic and actions taken to contain the coronavirus or ~~operating results. There~~its impact, among others.

Disruptions to our customers could result in increased risk of delinquencies, defaults, foreclosures and losses on our loans. The escalation of the pandemic may also negatively impact regional economic conditions for a period of time, resulting in declines in local loan demand, liquidity of loan guarantors, loan collateral (particularly in real estate), loan originations and deposit availability. If the global response to contain COVID-19 escalates or is unsuccessful, we could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak and the governmental responses may disrupt banking and other financial activity in the areas in which we operate and could potentially create widespread business continuity issues for us.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the U.S. federal, state and local governmental responses may result in a disruption in the services we provide. We rely on our third-party vendors to conduct business and to process, record, and monitor transactions. If any of these vendors are unable to continue to provide us with these services or experience interruptions in their ability to provide us with these services, it could negatively impact our ability to serve our customers. Furthermore, the coronavirus pandemic could negatively impact the ability of our employees and customers to engage in banking and other financial transactions in the geographic areas in which we operate and could create widespread business continuity issues

for us. We also could be adversely affected if key personnel or a significant number of employees were ~~no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed~~to become unavailable due to infection, quarantine or other effects and restrictions of a COVID-19 outbreak in our ~~Registration Statement.~~market areas. Although we have business continuity plans and other safeguards in place, there is no assurance that such plans and safeguards will be effective. If we are unable to promptly recover from such business disruptions, our business and financial conditions and results of operations would be adversely affected. We also may incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Interest rate volatility stemming from COVID-19 could negatively affect our net interest income, lending activities, deposits and profitability.

Our net interest income, lending activities, deposits and profitability could be negatively affected by volatility in interest rates caused by uncertainties stemming from COVID-19. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to a range from 0 to 0.25 percent, citing concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on markets and stress in the energy sector. A prolonged period of extremely volatile and unstable market conditions may increase our funding costs and negatively affect market risk mitigation strategies. Higher income volatility from changes in interest rates and spreads to benchmark indices could cause a loss of future net interest income and a decrease in current fair market values of our assets. Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our net income, operating results, or financial condition.

We are subject to increasing credit risk as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could adversely impact our profitability.

Our business depends on our ability to successfully measure and manage credit risk. As a commercial lender, we are exposed to the risk that the principal of, or interest on, a loan will not be paid timely or at all or that the value of any collateral supporting a loan will be insufficient to cover our outstanding exposure. In addition, we are exposed to risks with respect to the risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions and risks inherent in dealing with individual loans and borrowers. As the overall economic climate in the U.S., generally, and in our market areas specifically, experiences material disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our borrowers may experience difficulties in repaying their loans and governmental actions may provide payment relief to borrowers affected by COVID-19 and preclude our ability to initiate foreclosure proceedings in certain circumstances and, as a result, the collateral we hold may decrease in value or become illiquid, and the level of our nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise and require significant additional provisions for credit losses. Additional factors related to the credit quality of certain commercial real estate and multi-family residential loans include the duration of state and local moratoriums on evictions for non-payment of rent or other fees. The payment on these loans that are secured by income producing properties are typically dependent on the successful operation of the related real estate property and may subject us to risks from adverse conditions in the real estate market or the general economy.

We are actively working to support our borrowers to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on them and on our loan portfolio, including through loan modifications that defer payments for those who experienced a hardship as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although recent regulatory guidance provides that such loan modifications are exempt from the calculation and reporting of TDRs and loan delinquencies, we cannot predict whether such loan modifications may ultimately have an adverse impact on our profitability in future periods. Our inability to successfully manage the increased credit risk ~~factors identified~~caused by the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Unpredictable future developments related to or resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Because there have been no comparable recent global pandemics that resulted in a similar global impact, we do not yet know the full extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effects on our business, operations, or the global economy as a whole. Any future development will be highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, the effectiveness of our work from home arrangements, third party providers’ ability to support our operation, and any actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic. We are ~~in addition~~continuing to ~~those contained in~~monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and related risks, although the rapid development and fluidity of the situation precludes any ~~other cautionary statements, written or oral, which may be~~specific prediction as to its ultimate impact on us. However, if the pandemic continues to spread or otherwise ~~addressed~~results in ~~connection with~~ a ~~forward‑looking statement~~continuation or ~~contained~~worsening of the current economic and commercial environments, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios could be materially adversely affected and many of the risks described in ~~any of~~ our ~~subsequent filings with the SEC.~~2019 Form 10-K will be heightened.
