Cathay General Bancorp (“Bancorp”) is the holding company for Cathay Bank (the “Bank” and, together, with Bancorp, the “Company”), ~~ten~~10 limited partnerships investing in affordable housing investments in which the Bank is the sole limited partner, and GBC Venture Capital, Inc. Bancorp also owns 100% of the common stock of five statutory business trusts created for the purpose of issuing capital securities. The Bank was founded in 1962 and offers a wide range of financial services. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Bank operates 2427 branches in Southern California, 1320 branches in Northern California, 109 branches in New York State, ~~four~~4 in Washington State, 2 in Illinois, ~~two~~2 in Texas, ~~one~~1 in Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, and New Jersey, ~~one~~1 in Hong Kong, and a representative office in Taipei, Beijing, and Shanghai. Deposit accounts at the Hong Kong branch are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”).

The Company’s subsidiary bank, Cathay Bank completed the purchase of HSBC Bank USA, National Association’s West Coast mass retail market consumer banking business and retail business banking business on February 7, 2022. As a result of the acquisition, Cathay Bank added 10 retail branches in California and additional loans with principal balance of $646.1 million and deposits with a balance of $575.2 million.

The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the February 7, 2022 acquisition date. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. We have included the financial results of the business combinations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income beginning on the acquisition date. The purchase accounting adjustments are preliminary and subject to finalization during the one-year measurement period from the date of the acquisition.

The fair value of the assets and the liabilities acquired as of February 7, 2022 are shown below:

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. For further information, refer to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 filed with the SEC on ~~March 1, 2021~~February 28, 2022 (the ~~"2020~~“2021 Form 10~~-K"~~-K”).

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company expects that the most significant ~~estimates~~estimate subject to change ~~are~~is the allowance for loan losses.

With the exception of the updated accounting policies listed below, the accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 ~~- “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” under Part II, Item~~ 8 ~~of our~~ ~~2020~~ ~~Form~~ ~~10K.~~

~~Prior to~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~available-for-sale ("AFS") debt securities were measured at fair value and declines in the fair value were reviewed to determine whether the impairment was other-than-temporary. If we did~~ ~~not~~ expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, then an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) was considered to have occurred. The cost basis of the security was written down to its estimated fair value and the amount of the write-down was recognized through a charge to earnings. If the amount of the amortized cost basis expected to be recovered increased in a future period, the cost basis of the security was ~~not~~ ~~increased but rather recognized prospectively through interest income.~~

~~Effective~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~upon the adoption of ASU~~ ~~2016~~-~~13,~~ debt securities AFS are measured at fair value and subject to impairment testing. When an AFS debt security is considered impaired, the Company must determine if the decline in fair value has resulted from a credit-related loss or other factors and then, (1~~) recognize an allowance for credit loss by a charge to earnings for the credit-related component (if any) of the decline in fair value, and (~~2) recognize in other comprehensive income (loss) any non-credit related components of the fair value change. If the amount of the amortized cost basis expected to be recovered increases in a future period, the valuation reserve would be reduced, but ~~not~~ ~~more than the amount of the current existing reserve for that security.~~

Interest income includes amortization of premiums and discounts as an adjustment of yield on a level-yield basis. Premiums on callable debt securities are amortized to their earliest call date. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

~~A debt security is placed on nonaccrual status at the time any principal or interest payments become delinquent by~~ 90 ~~days or greater. Interest accrued but~~ ~~not~~ ~~received for a security placed on non-accrual is reversed against interest income.~~ No ~~interest was reversed against interest income during the period.~~

For ~~AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company~~ ~~first~~ ~~assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than~~ ~~not~~ that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value with the credit component of the unrealized loss of the impaired AFS debt security recognized as an allowance for credit losses, and a corresponding provision for credit losses on the consolidated statement of income and the non-credit component is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes. For AFS debt securities that do ~~not~~ meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, the payment structure of the security, failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. Any fair value changes that has ~~not~~ ~~been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income.~~

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision for credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of an available-for-sale security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

The amortized cost of the Company’s AFS debt securities excludes accrued interest, which is included in “accrued interest receivable” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election ~~not~~ to measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables on AFS debt securities since the Company timely reverses any previously accrued interest when the debt security remains in default for an extended period. As each AFS debt security has a unique security structure, where the accrual status is clearly determined when certain criteria listed in the terms are met, the Company assesses the default status of each security as defined by the debt security’s specific security structure.

~~Trading securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included in income.~~

~~Loans receivable that~~comparability, the Company has ~~the intent and ability~~adjusted consolidated prior period amounts to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity are stated at their outstanding principal, reduced by an allowance for loan losses and net of deferred loan fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Nonrefundable fees and direct costs associated with the origination or purchase of loans are deferred and netted against outstanding loan balances. The deferred net loan fees and costs are recognized in interest income as an adjustment to yield over the loan term using the effective interest method or straight-line method. Discounts or premiums on purchased loans are accreted or amortized to interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method over the remaining period to contractual maturity. Interest on loans is calculated using the simple-interest method on daily balances of the principal amounts outstanding based on an actual or ~~360~~~~-day basis.~~

~~Generally, loans are placed on nonaccrual status when they become~~ 90 ~~days past due. Loans are considered past due when contractually required principal or interest payments have~~ ~~not~~ been made on the due dates. Loans are also placed on nonaccrual status when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that full collection of principal or interest becomes uncertain, regardless of the length of past due status. Once a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest accrual is discontinued, and all unpaid accrued interest is reversed against interest income. As a result, accrued interest receivable does ~~not~~ ~~carry a credit loss reserve. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are reflected as a reduction of principal and~~ ~~not~~ as interest income. A loan is returned to accrual status when the borrower has demonstrated a satisfactory payment trend subject to management’s assessment of the borrower’s ability to repay the loan.

Held for sale loans are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value. Gains and losses are recorded in non-interest income based on the difference between sales proceeds, net of sales commissions, and carrying value. When a determination is made at the time of commitment to originate or purchase loans as held-for-investment, it is the Company’s intent to hold these loans to maturity or for the “foreseeable future,” subject to periodic review under the Company’s management evaluation processes, including asset/liability management. When the Company subsequently changes its intent to hold certain loans, the loans are transferred from the loans held-for-investment portfolio at amortized costconform to the ~~loans held-for-sale portfolio at lower of aggregate cost or fair value and the existing ACL on the loans transferred is reversed.~~

~~Effective~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~and upon the adoption of ASU~~ ~~2016~~-~~13,~~ ~~the Company replaced the incurred loss accounting approach with the~~ current expected credit loss (“CECL”) approach for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and other commitments to extend credit. CECL requires the immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the estimated remaining life of the asset. The forward-looking concept of CECL requires loss estimates to consider historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts of future events and circumstances.

The ACL on loans held for investment is the combination of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded loan commitments. The allowance for loan losses is reported as a reduction of the amortized cost basis of loans, while the reserve for unfunded loan commitments is included within "other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). The amortized cost basis of loans does ~~not~~ include accrued interest receivable, which is included in "accrued interest receivable" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The "Provision for credit losses" on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Unaudited) is a combination of the provision for loan losses and the provision for unfunded loan commitments.

Under the Company's CECL approach, management estimates the ACL using relevant available information from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts that vary by loan portfolio. We use economic forecasts from Moody’s Analytics in this process. The economic forecast is updated monthly; therefore, the ~~one~~ ~~used for each quarter-end calculation is generally based on a~~ ~~one~~~~-month lag based on the timing of when the forecast is released. The Company does~~ ~~not~~ ~~consider a~~ ~~one~~-month lag to create a material difference but will consider any subsequent material changes to our estimated loss forecasts as deemed appropriate. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in gross domestic product (or “GDP”), unemployment rates, property values, or other relevant factors.

~~Under the CECL methodology, quantitative and qualitative loss factors are applied to our population of loans on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist. When loans do~~ ~~not~~ share similar risk characteristics, the Company would evaluate the loan for expected credit losses on an individual basis. The Company evaluates loans for expected credit losses on an individual basis if, based on current information and events, the loan does ~~not~~ ~~share similar credit risk characteristics with other loans. The Company~~ ~~may~~ ~~choose to measure expected credit losses on an individual loan basis by using~~ ~~one~~ ~~of the following methods: (~~1~~) the present value of the expected future cash flows of the loan discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, or (~~2~~) if the loan is collateral dependent, the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell. For loans that are~~ ~~not~~ ~~collateral-dependent, the Company will use the present value of future cash flows.~~

~~Under the Company’s CECL methodology,~~ ~~nine~~ ~~portfolio segments with similar risk characteristics are evaluated for expected loss. Six portfolios are modeled using econometric models and~~ ~~three~~ ~~smaller portfolios are evaluated using a simplified loss-rate method that calculates lifetime expected credit losses for the respective pools (simplified approach). The~~ ~~six~~ portfolios subject to econometric modeling include residential mortgages; commercial and industrial loans (“C&I”); construction loans; commercial real estate (“CRE”) for multifamily loans; CRE for owner-occupied loans; and other CRE loans. We estimate the probability of default during the reasonable and supportable forecast period using separate econometric regression models developed to correlate macroeconomic variables, (GDP, unemployment, CRE prices and residential mortgage prices) to historical credit performance for each of the ~~six~~ ~~loan portfolios from~~ ~~2007~~ ~~to the~~ ~~fourth~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2020.~~ ~~Loss given default rates would be computed based on the net charge-offs recognized divided by the expected exposure at default of defaulted loans starting with the~~ ~~fourth~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2007~~ ~~through the~~ ~~fourth~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2020.~~ The probability of default and the loss given default rates are applied to the expected amount at default at the loan level based on contractual scheduled payments and estimated prepayments. The amounts so calculated comprise the quantitative portion of the allowance for credit losses.

~~The Company’s CECL methodology utilizes an~~ ~~eight~~~~-quarter reasonable and supportable (“R&S”) forecast period, and a~~ ~~four~~-quarter reversion period. Management relies on multiple forecasts, blending them into a single loss estimate. Generally speaking, the blended scenario approach would include the Baseline, the Alternative Scenario 1 ~~– Upside –~~ ~~10th~~ ~~Percentile and the Alternative Scenario~~ 3 ~~– Downside –~~ ~~90th~~ ~~Percentile forecasts. After the R&S period, the Company will revert linearly for the~~ ~~four~~~~-quarter reversion period to the long-term loss rates for each of the~~ ~~six~~ ~~portfolios of loans.~~

The Company’s CECL methodology estimates expected credit losses over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless either of the following applies: (i) management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a troubled debt restructuring will be executed with an individual borrower or (ii) the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are ~~not~~ ~~unconditionally cancellable by the Company.~~

~~The simplified approach portfolios include Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, Home Equity Lines of Credit (“HELOCs”) and cash-secured loans, which are~~ ~~not~~ ~~modelled econometrically due to the low loss history for these~~ ~~three~~ ~~pools of loans. The forecasted loss rate is based on the forecasted GDP and unemployment rates during the~~ ~~first~~~~eight~~ ~~quarters of the portfolio’s contractual life, reversion loss rates for the next~~ ~~four~~ ~~quarters of the portfolio’s contractual life on a linear declining rate, and the long-term loss rate projected over the remainder of the portfolio’s contractual life.~~

Under the Company’s CECL methodology, the qualitative portion of the reserve on pooled loans represents management’s judgment of additional considerations to account for internal and external risk factors that are ~~not~~ ~~adequately measured in the quantitative reserve. The qualitative loss factors consider idiosyncratic risk factors, conditions that~~ ~~may~~ ~~not~~ be reflected in quantitatively derived results, or other relevant factors to seek to ensure the allowance for credit losses reflects our best estimate of current expected credit losses. The qualitative reserves include reserves for policy exceptions, experience of management and staff, level of competition in the lending environment, weak risk identification, lack of historical experience with residential mortgage loans made to non-U.S. residents, oil and gas, included as part of the C&I loan portfolio, and the higher risk characteristics of purchased syndicated loans. Current and forecasted economic trends and underlying market values for collateral dependent loans also are considered within the econometric models described above.

The Company's CECL methodology requires a significant amount of management judgment in determining the appropriate allowance for credit losses. Several of the steps in the methodology involve judgment and are subjective in nature including, among other things: segmenting the loan portfolio; determining the amount of loss history to consider; selecting predictive econometric regression models that use appropriate macroeconomic variables; determining the methodology to forecast prepayments; selecting the most appropriate economic forecast scenario; determining the length of the R&S forecast and reversion periods; estimating expected utilization rates on unfunded loan commitments; and assessing relevant and appropriate qualitative factors. In addition, the CECL methodology is dependent on economic forecasts that are inherently imprecise and will change from period to period. Although the allowance for credit losses is considered by management to be appropriate, there can be no ~~assurance that it will be sufficient to absorb future losses.~~

Management believes the allowance for credit losses is appropriate for the CECL in our loan portfolio and associated unfunded commitments, and the credit risk ratings and inherent loss rates currently assigned are reasonable and appropriate as of the reporting date.

~~Loans that do~~ ~~not~~ share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets are individually evaluated for impairment and excluded from loan pools used within the collective evaluation of estimated credit losses. We defined the following criteria for what constitutes a “default”, which results in a loan no ~~longer sharing similar risk characteristics with other loans, and therefore requires an individual evaluation for expected credit losses. The criteria for default~~ ~~may~~ ~~include any~~ ~~one~~ ~~of the following: on nonaccrual status, modified under a troubled debt restructuring, or payment delinquency of~~ 90 ~~days or more.~~

~~Prior to~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ a loan or lease was considered impaired when it was probable that we would be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan or lease agreement. The measurement of impairment ~~may~~ ~~be based on (~~1~~) the present value of the expected future cash flows of the impaired loan discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, (~~2~~) the observable market price of the impaired loan or (~~3) the fair value of the collateral of a collateral-dependent loan. The amount by which the recorded investment in the loan exceeds the measure of the impaired loan is recognized by recording a valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. When loans are placed on an impaired status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed against current income and subsequent payments received are generally ~~first~~ ~~applied toward the outstanding principal balance of the loan.~~

A TDR is a formal modification of the terms of a loan when the lender, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower. The concessions ~~may~~ be granted in various forms, including reduction in the stated interest rate, reduction in the loan balance or accrued interest, or extension of the maturity date. Although these loan modifications are considered TDRs, TDR loans that have, pursuant to the Bank’s policy, performed under the restructured terms and have demonstrated sustained performance under the modified terms for ~~six~~ ~~months are returned to accrual status. The sustained performance considered by management pursuant to its policy includes the~~ periods prior to the modification if the prior performance met or exceeded the modified terms. This would include cash paid by the borrower prior to the restructure to set up interest reserves. Loans classified as TDRs are reported as individually evaluated loans.

The allowance for credit loss on a TDR is measured using the same method as all other loans held for investment, except when the value of a concession cannot be measured using a method other than the discounted cash flow method. When the value of a concession is measured using the discounted cash flow method, the allowance for credit loss is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the original interest rate of the loan.

~~The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) as extended by the Consolidated Appropriation Act,~~ ~~2021~~ ~~(“CAA”) permits financial institutions to suspend requirements under GAAP for loan modifications to borrowers affected by COVID-~~19 ~~and is intended to provide interpretive guidance as to conditions that would constitute a short-term modification that would~~ ~~not~~ ~~meet the definition of a TDR. Such conditions include the following (i) the loan modification is made between~~ ~~March 1, 2020~~ ~~and the earlier of~~ ~~January 1, 2022~~ or 60 ~~days after the end of the coronavirus emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was~~ ~~not~~ ~~more than~~ 30 ~~days past due as of~~ ~~December 31, 2019.~~

~~Unfunded loan commitments are generally related to providing credit facilities to clients of the Bank and are~~ ~~not~~ ~~actively traded financial instruments. These unfunded commitments are disclosed as off-balance sheet financial instruments in Note~~ 9 ~~in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).~~

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company, using the same loss factors as used for the allowance for loan losses. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments uses the expected historical usage rate of the unfunded commitments during the contractual life of the commitments. The allowance for unfunded commitments is included in “other liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the allowance for unfunded commitments are included in the provision for loan losses.

In ~~June 2016,~~ ~~the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")~~ ~~2016~~-~~13,~~ ~~“Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic~~ ~~326~~): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This update requires an entity to use a broader range of R&S forecasts, in addition to historical experience and current conditions, to develop an expected credit loss estimate, referred to as the CECL model, for financial assets and net investments that are ~~not~~ accounted for at fair value through net income. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost.

~~The FASB issued additional ASUs containing clarifying guidance, transition relief provisions and minor updates to the original ASU. These include ASU~~ ~~2018~~-19 ~~(issued~~ ~~November 2018),~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2019~~-04 ~~(issued~~ ~~April 2019),~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2019~~-05 ~~(issued~~ ~~May 2019),~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2019~~-10 ~~(issued~~ ~~November 2019),~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2019~~-11 ~~(issued~~ ~~November 2019),~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2020~~-02 ~~(issued~~ ~~February 2020)~~ ~~and ASU~~ ~~2020~~-03 ~~(issued~~ ~~March 2020).~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~2016~~-13 ~~and subsequent ASUs are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after~~ ~~December 15, 2019.~~ ~~This amendment requires using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings, as of the beginning of the~~ ~~first~~ ~~reporting period in which the guidance is effective.~~

~~Effective~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~the Company adopted ASU~~ ~~2016~~-13 ~~and the related amendments to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic~~ ~~326,~~ Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, to replace the incurred loss accounting approach with a CECL approach for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and other commitments to extend credit. The new standard is generally intended to require earlier recognition of credit losses. While the standard changes the measurement of the allowance for credit losses, it does ~~not~~ ~~change the credit risk of our lending portfolios or the ultimate losses in those portfolios.~~

Under the CECL approach, the standard requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the estimated remaining life of the asset. The forward-looking concept of CECL requires loss estimates to consider historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The standard modifies the other-than-temporary impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities to require entities to record an allowance when recognizing credit losses for available-for-sale securities, rather than reducing the amortized cost of the securities by direct write-offs.

The Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective approach and recognized a cumulative effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by $3.1 million, net of taxes, and decrease the allowance for loan losses by $1.6 million and increase the reserve for unfunded loan commitments by $6.0 million without restating prior periods and applied the requirements of the new standard prospectively. There was no cumulative effect adjustment related to available-for-sale securities at adoption. The Company elected to account for accrued interest receivable separately from the amortized cost of loans and investment securities. Accrued interest receivable is included in "accrued interest receivables" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company elected the practical expedient to use the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date when determining the allowance for credit losses for a financial asset for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on the entity’s assessment as of the reporting date (collateral dependent financial asset). Additionally, the Company implemented new business processes, new internal controls, and modified existing and/or implemented new internal models and tools to facilitate the ongoing application of the new standard. See Note 8.~~Loans~~ ~~for further details.~~

~~The following table sets forth the cumulative effect of the changes to the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets at~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~for the adoption of ASC~~ ~~326:~~

In ~~July 2017,~~ ~~the FASB issued ASU~~ ~~2017~~-~~11,~~ ~~“Earnings per Share (Topic~~ ~~260~~~~), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic~~ ~~480~~~~) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic~~ ~~815~~~~).” There are~~ ~~two~~ parts to this update. Part I addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Part II addresses the difficulty in navigating Topic ~~480,~~ Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, because of the existence of extensive pending content in the FASB ASC. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after ~~December 15, 2020.~~ Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in part I of this update should be applied in either of the following ways: (i) retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the ~~first~~ fiscal year and interim periods in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective; or (ii) retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs ~~250~~-10-45-5 ~~through~~ 45-~~10.~~ ~~The amendments to Part II of this update do~~ ~~not~~ ~~require any transition guidance because those amendments do~~ ~~not~~ ~~have an accounting effect. Adoption of ASU~~ ~~2017~~-11 ~~did~~ ~~not~~ ~~have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.~~

In ~~December 2019,~~ ~~the FASB issued ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2019~~-~~12,~~ ~~“Income Taxes (Topic~~ ~~740~~~~); Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This ASU removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic~~ ~~740~~ in GAAP. It eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; exception to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also (i) improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance (ii) simplifies GAAP for franchise taxes that are partially based on income; transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; and separate financial statements of legal entities that are ~~not~~ ~~subject to tax; and (iii) establishes changes in tax laws in interim periods. This ASU is effective for public business entities, for fiscal years beginning after~~ ~~December 15, 2020~~ ~~with early adoption permitted for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have~~ ~~not~~ ~~yet been issued. Adoption of ASU~~ ~~2019~~-12 ~~did~~ ~~not~~ ~~have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.~~

In ~~January 2020,~~ ~~the FASB issued ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2020~~-~~01,~~ ~~“'Investments—Equity Securities (Topic~~ ~~321~~~~), Investments—Equity Method and Joint-Ventures (Topic~~ ~~323~~~~), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic~~ ~~815~~~~). Clarifying the Interactions between Topic~~ ~~321,~~ ~~Topic~~ ~~323,~~ ~~and Topic~~ ~~815.”~~ ~~This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after~~ ~~December 15, 2020.~~ ~~Early application is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have~~ ~~not~~ ~~yet been issued. An entity should apply ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2020~~-01 prospectively at the beginning of the interim period that includes the adoption date. This ASU among other things clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under Topic ~~323,~~ ~~Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic~~ ~~321~~ ~~immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The new ASU clarifies that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options a company should~~ ~~not~~ ~~consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option. Adoption of ASU~~ ~~2020~~-01 ~~did~~ ~~not~~ ~~have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.~~

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” ASU No. 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. This ASU provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The ASU is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. Therefore, it will be in effect for a limited time through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 as subsequent amendments, which expanded the scope of Topic 848 to include all affected derivatives and clarified certain optional expedients and exceptions regarding the hedge accounting for derivative contracts affected by the discounting transition. Based on our current assessment, we will plan to offer SOFR as the primary alternative reference rate but may consider alternate rates based on customer demands and/or the type of loan or financial instrument. The Company will also continue to assess impacts to our operations, financial models, data and technology as part of our transition plan. The Company adopted ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 on a prospective basis on January 1, 2021. At the time of adoption, the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company will continue to track the exposure as of each reporting period and to assess the impact as the reference rate transition occurs through the cessation of LIBOR.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method.” Under prior guidance, entities can apply the last-of-layer hedging method to hedge the exposure of a closed portfolio of prepayable financial assets to fair value changes due to changes in interest rates for a portion of the portfolio that is not expected to be affected by prepayments, defaults, and other events affecting the timing and amount of cash flows. ASU 2022-01 expands the last-of-layer method, which permits only one hedge layer, to allow multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio. To reflect that expansion, the last-of-layer method is renamed the portfolio layer method. ASU 2022-01 also (i) expands the scope of the portfolio layer method to include non-prepayable financial assets, (ii) specifies eligible hedging instruments in a single-layer hedge, (iii) provides additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of hedge basis adjustments under the portfolio layer method and (iv) specifies how hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for the assets included in the closed portfolio. ASU 2022-01 will be effective for us on January 1, 2023 though early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ~~this guidance~~ASU 2022-01 is not expected to have a ~~material~~significant impact on ~~the Company’s consolidated~~our financial statements.

In March 2022, ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, ASU 2022-02 requires entities to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measured at Amortized Cost. ASU 2022-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2023 though early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In June 2022, ASU 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions.” ASU 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. ASU 2022-03 also clarifies that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction and requires certain new disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 will be effective for us on January 1, 2024 though early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2022-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

The Company manages its cash and cash equivalents based upon the Company’s operating, investment, and financing activities. Cash and cash equivalents, including for purposes of reporting cash flows, consist of cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less.

The Company is required to maintain reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank. On December 7, 2020, the Federal Reserve ~~requirements are based on a percentage~~Bank announced they were reducing the reserve requirement ratio to zero percent across all deposit tiers as of ~~deposit liabilities. The~~March 26, 2020. There were 0 average reserve balances required ~~were 0 and $60 thousand for the~~as of ~~nine~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 ~~and~~or for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021. ~~respectively.~~ The average excess balance with Federal Reserve Bank was $1.4 billion as of June 30, 2022 and $1.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had ~~$31.9 million~~0 and ~~$34.7~~$24.3 million, respectively, on deposit in a cash margin account that serves as collateral for interest rate swaps. These amounts included ~~$8.0 million~~0 and ~~$11.9~~$5.9 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, on deposit in a cash margin account that serves as collateral for the Bancorp’s interest rate swaps. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company held ~~$1.0~~$34.9 million and ~~$9.3 million,~~$690 thousand, respectively, in a restricted escrow account with a major bank for its alternative energy investments.

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock and resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings. Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with anti-dilutive effect were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. The following table sets forth earnings per common share calculations:

Pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, the Company may grant incentive stock options (employees only), non-statutory stock options, common stock awards, restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights and cash awards to non-employee directors and eligible employees.

RSUs are generally granted at no cost to the recipient. RSUs generally vest ratably over three years or cliff vest after one or three years of continued employment from the date of the grant. While a portion of RSUs may be time-vesting awards, others may vest subject to the attainment of specified performance goals and are referred to as “performance-based RSUs.” All RSUs are subject to forfeiture until vested.

Performance-based RSUs are granted at the target amount of awards. Based on the Company’s attainment of specified performance goals and consideration of market conditions, the number of shares that vest can be adjusted to a minimum of ~~zero~~0 and to a maximum of 150% of the target. The amount of performance-based RSUs that are eligible to vest is determined at the end of each performance period and is then added together to determine the total number of performance shares that are eligible to vest. Performance-based RSUs generally cliff vest three years from the date of grant.

Compensation costs for the time-based awards are based on the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the grant date. Compensation costs associated with performance-based RSUs are based on grant date fair value, which considers both market and performance conditions. Compensation costs of both time-based and performance-based awards are recognized on a straight-line basis from the grant date until the vesting date of each grant.

The securities that were in an unrealized loss position at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, were evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis resulted from a credit loss or other factors. For a discussion of the factors and criteria the Company uses in analyzing securities for impairment related to credit losses, see Note 21 - ~~Basis of Presentation and~~ Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Allowance for Credit Losses on Available for Sale Securities to the Consolidated Financial Statements in ~~this~~the Company’s 2021 Form ~~10Q.~~10-K.

The Company concluded the unrealized losses were primarily attributed to yield curve movement, together with widened liquidity spreads and credit spreads. The issuers have not, to the Company’s knowledge, established any cause for default on these securities. The Company expects to recover the amortized cost basis of its securities and has no present intent to sell and will not be required to sell available-for-sale securities that have declined below their cost before their anticipated recovery. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, against these securities, and there was no0 provision for credit losses recognized for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, there was no0 credit loss recognized.

Securities available-for-sale having a carrying value of ~~$30.9~~$102.9 million and ~~$22.7~~$30.5 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, other borrowings, treasury tax and loan.

Most of the Company’s business activities are with customers located in the high-density Asian-populated areas of Southern and Northern California; New York City, New York; Dallas and Houston, Texas; Seattle, Washington; Boston, Massachusetts; Chicago, Illinois; Edison, New Jersey; Rockville, Maryland; and Las Vegas, Nevada. The Company also has loan customers in Hong Kong. The Company has no specific industry concentration, and generally its loans, when secured, are secured by real property or other collateral of the borrowers. The Company generally expects loans to be paid off from the operating profits of the borrowers, from refinancing by other lenders, or through sale by the borrowers of the secured collateral.

The types of loans in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were as follows:

As of ~~September~~June 30, 2022, recorded investment in non-accrual loans was $60.7 million. As of December 31, 2021, recorded investment in non-accrual loans ~~was $68.7 million. As of~~ ~~December 31, 2020,~~ ~~recorded investment in impaired loans~~ totaled ~~$95.4 million and was comprised of non-accrual loans of $67.7 million and accruing TDRs of $27.7~~$65.8 million. For non-accrual loans, the amounts previously charged off represent ~~10.6%~~2.6% and 10.7% of the contractual balances for non-accrual loans as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022 ~~For impaired loans, the amounts previously charged off represent 7.1% of the contractual balances for impaired loans as of~~and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

A TDR is a formal modification of the terms of a loan when the lender, for economic or legal reasons related to the ~~borrower's~~borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower. The concessions may be granted in various forms, including a change in the stated interest rate, a reduction in the loan balance or accrued interest, or an extension of the maturity date. Although these loan modifications are considered TDRs, TDR loans that have, pursuant to the ~~Bank's~~Bank’s policy, performed under the restructured terms and have demonstrated sustained performance under the modified terms for six months are returned to accrual status. The sustained performance considered by management pursuant to its policy includes the periods prior to the modification if the prior performance met or exceeded the modified terms. This would include cash paid by the borrower prior to the restructure to set up interest reserves. Loans classified as TDRs are reported as individually evaluated loans.

The Company establishes a specific reserve for individually evaluated loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with the loans included in the quantitative baseline. These individually evaluated loans are removed from the pooling approach discussed in ~~the “~~~~Basis of Presentation and~~ Note 1 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies~~” above,~~–to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K, for the quantitative baseline, and include non-accrual loans, TDRs, and other loans as deemed appropriate by management. In addition, the Company individually evaluates “reasonably expected” TDRs, which are identified by the Company as a commercial loan expected to be classified as a TDR. Individually evaluated loans also includes “reasonably expected” TDRs, identified by the Company as a consumer loan for which a borrower’s application of loan modification due to hardship has been received by the Company. Management judgment is utilized to make this determination.

Although the Company took steps to incorporate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economic conditions and other factors utilized to determine the expected loan losses, if the economic conditions or other factors worsen relative to the assumptions the Company utilized, the expected loan losses will increase accordingly in future periods.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, accruing TDRs were ~~$24.4~~$12.7 million and non-accrual TDRs were ~~$8.3~~$6.6 million compared to accruing TDRs of ~~$27.7~~$12.8 million and non-accrual TDRs of ~~$9.0~~$8.2 million as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The Company allocated ~~$181~~$33 thousand in reserves to accruing TDRs and ~~$24~~$794 thousand to non-accrual TDRs as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~$122~~seven thousand to accruing TDRs and ~~$24~~three thousand to non-accrual TDRs as of December 31, ~~2020.~~ 2021.

The following tables set forth TDRs that were modified during the three months and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, their specific reserves as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020,~~2021, and charge-offs for the three months and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020:~~2021:

Modifications of the loan terms in the ~~nine~~three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, were in the form of extensions of maturity dates, which ranged generally from three to twelve months from the modification date.

We expect that the TDRs on accruing status as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, which were all performing in accordance with their restructured terms, will continue to comply with the restructured terms because of the reduced principal or interest payments on these loans. The ongoing impact of the COVID pandemic or worsening economy, however, could increase the risk ofthat such TDRs ~~becoming~~become non-accrual due to the borrowers’ inability to continue to comply with their restructured terms.

A summary of TDRs by type of concession and by type of loan, as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, is set forth in the table below:

The Company considers a loan to be in payment default once it is 60 to 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. The Company did not have any loans that were modified as a TDR during the previous twelve months and which had subsequently defaulted as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Under the Company’s internal underwriting policy, 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 in order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no0 commitments to lend additional funds to those borrowers whose loans had been restructured, were considered individually evaluated, or were on non-accrual status.

The CARES Act, signed into law on March 27, 2020, and as extended by the CAA, permits financial institutions to suspend requirements under GAAP for loan modifications to borrowers affected by COVID-19 that would otherwise be characterized as TDRs and suspend any determination related thereto if (i) the loan modification is made between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the coronavirus emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. In addition, federal bank regulatory authorities have issued guidance to encourage financial institutions to make loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19 and have assured financial institutions that they will neither receive supervisory criticism for such prudent loan modifications, nor be required by examiners to automatically categorize COVID-19-related loan modifications as TDRs. The Company is applying this guidance to qualifying loan modifications.

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of our loan portfolio, the Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each loan. Loans are risk rated based on analysis of the current state of the borrower’s credit quality. The analysis of credit quality includes a review of sources of repayment, the borrower’s current financial and liquidity status and other relevant information. The risk rating categories can be generally described by the following grouping for non-homogeneous loans:

~~In connection with the adoption of ASU~~ ~~2016~~-~~13,~~ ~~the Company~~ no ~~longer provides information on impaired loans. The following table presents loan portfolio by risk rating as of~~ ~~December 31, 2020:~~

The following table summarizes the Company’s loan held for investment as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, presented by loan portfolio segments, internal risk ratings and vintage year. The vintage year is the year of origination, renewal or major modification:

Revolving loans that are converted to term loans presented in the table above are excluded from the term loans by vintage year columns.

The ~~following table sets forth~~Company has an allowance framework under ASU 2016-13 for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The measurement of the ~~balance~~allowance for credit losses is based on management’s best estimate of lifetime expected credit losses inherent in the Company’s relevant financial assets. The forward-looking concept of current expected credit loss (“CECL”) approach requires loss estimates to consider historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts of future events and circumstances.

The ACL on loans held for investment is the combination of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded loan commitments. The allowance for loan losses is reported as a reduction of the amortized cost basis of loans, while the reserve for unfunded loan commitments is included within "other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). The amortized cost basis of loans does not include accrued interest receivable, which is included in "accrued interest receivable" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The "Provision for credit losses" on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Unaudited) is a combination of the provision for loan losses and the provision for unfunded loan commitments.

Under the Company’s CECL approach, management estimates the ACL using relevant available information from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts that vary by ~~portfolio segment and~~loan portfolio. We use economic forecasts from Moody’s Analytics in this process. The economic forecast is updated monthly; therefore, the one used for each quarter-end calculation is generally based on ~~impairment~~a one-month lag based on the timing of when the forecast is released. The Company does not consider a one-month lag to create a material difference but considers any subsequent material changes to our estimated loss forecasts as deemed appropriate. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in gross domestic product (or “GDP”), unemployment rates, property values, or other relevant factors.

Under the CECL methodology, quantitative and qualitative loss factors are applied to our population of loans on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist. When loans do not share similar risk characteristics, the Company would evaluate the loan for expected credit losses on an individual basis. The Company evaluates loans for expected credit losses on an individual basis if, based on current information and events, the loan does not share similar credit risk characteristics with other loans. The Company may choose to measure expected credit losses on an individual loan basis by using one of the following methods: (1) the present value of the expected future cash flows of the loan discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate, or (2) if the loan is collateral dependent, the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell. For loans that are not collateral-dependent, the Company uses the present value of future cash flows.

Under the Company’s CECL methodology, nine portfolio segments with similar risk characteristics are evaluated for expected loss. Six portfolios are modeled using econometric models and three smaller portfolios are evaluated using a simplified loss-rate method that calculates lifetime expected credit losses for the respective pools (simplified approach). The six portfolios subject to econometric modeling include residential mortgages; commercial and industrial loans (“C&I”); construction loans; commercial real estate (“CRE”) for multifamily loans; CRE for owner-occupied loans; and other CRE loans. We estimate the probability of default during the reasonable and supportable forecast period using separate econometric regression models developed to correlate macroeconomic variables, (GDP, unemployment, CRE prices and residential mortgage prices) to historical credit performance for each of the six loan portfolios from the fourth quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2022. Loss given default rates are computed based on the charge-offs recognized divided by the exposure at default of defaulted loans starting with the fourth quarter of 2007 through the second quarter of 2022. The probability of default and the loss given default rates are applied to the expected amount at default at the loan level based on contractual scheduled payments and estimated prepayments. The amounts so calculated comprise the quantitative portion of the allowance for credit losses.

The Company’s CECL methodology utilizes an eight-quarter reasonable and supportable (“R&S”) forecast period, and a four-quarter reversion period. Management relies on multiple forecasts, blending them into a single loss estimate. Generally speaking, the blended scenario approach would include the Baseline, the Alternative Scenario 1 – Upside – 10th Percentile and the Alternative Scenario 3 – Downside – 90th Percentile forecasts. After the R&S period, the Company reverts linearly for the four-quarter reversion period to the long-term loss rates for each of the six portfolios of loans.

The simplified approach portfolios include Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, Home Equity Lines of Credit (“HELOCs”) and cash-secured loans, which are not modelled econometrically due to the low loss history for these three pools of loans. The forecasted loss rate is based on the forecasted GDP and unemployment rates during the firsteight quarters of the portfolio’s contractual life, reversion loss rates for the next four quarters of the portfolio’s contractual life on a linear declining rate, and the long-term loss rate projected over the remainder of the portfolio’s contractual life.

Under the Company’s CECL methodology, the qualitative portion of the reserve on pooled loans represents management’s judgment of additional considerations to account for internal and external risk factors that are not adequately measured in the quantitative reserve. The qualitative loss factors consider idiosyncratic risk factors, conditions that may not be reflected in quantitatively derived results, or other relevant factors to seek to ensure the allowance for credit losses reflects our best estimate of current expected credit losses. The qualitative reserves include reserves for policy exceptions, experience of management and staff, level of competition in the lending environment, weak risk identification, lack of historical experience with residential mortgage loans made to non-U.S. residents, oil & gas, included as part of the C&I loan portfolio, and the higher risk characteristics of purchased syndicated loans. Current and forecasted economic trends and underlying market values for collateral dependent loans also are considered within the econometric models described above.

The Company’s CECL methodology requires a significant amount of management judgment in determining the appropriate allowance for credit losses. Several of the steps in the methodology involve judgment and are subjective in nature including, among other things:

In addition, the CECL methodology is dependent on economic forecasts that are inherently imprecise and will change from period to period. Although the allowance for credit losses is considered by management to be appropriate, there can be no assurance that it will be sufficient to absorb future losses.

When a loan no longer ~~presented after~~shares similar risk characteristics with other loans, such as in the case of certain nonaccrual or TDR loans, the Company estimates the allowance for loan losses on an individual loan basis. The allowance for loan losses for individually evaluated loans is measured as the difference between the recorded value of the loans and their fair value. For loans evaluated individually, the Company uses ~~December 31, 2020,~~ one~~given~~ of three different asset valuation measurement methods: (1) the ~~adoption~~fair value of ~~ASU~~ collateral less costs to sell; (~~2016~~2-) the present value of expected future cash flows; and (~~13,~~3) the loan's observable market price. If an individually evaluated loan is determined to be collateral dependent, the Company applies the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell method. If an individually evaluated loan is determined not ~~which has a single impairment methodology.~~to be collateral dependent, the Company uses the present value of future cash flows or the observable market value of the loan.

Unfunded loan commitments are generally related to providing credit facilities to clients of the Bank and are not actively traded financial instruments. These unfunded commitments are disclosed as off-balance sheet financial instruments in Note 10 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company, using the same loss factors as used for the allowance for loan losses. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments uses a three-year historical usage rate of the unfunded commitments during the contractual life of the commitments. The allowance for unfunded commitments is included in “other liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the allowance for unfunded commitments are included in the provision for loan losses.

The following tables set forth activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the three months and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~ 2021.~~Allocation of a portion of the allowance to~~ ~~one~~ ~~category of loans does~~ ~~not~~ ~~preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.~~

~~The U. S. economy has gradually recovered from the COVID-~~19 ~~pandemic with improving gross national product and a declining unemployment rate in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2021.~~ ~~This contributed to a positive economic outlook and forecasts that resulted in a decrease to the allowance for credit losses.~~

~~Despite the gradual recovery in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2021,the~~ ~~ongoing COVID-~~19 ~~pandemic has caused significant disruption in the United States and international economies and financial markets. Although banks have generally been permitted to continue operating, the COVID-~~19 pandemic has caused disruptions to our business and could cause material disruptions to our business and operations in the future. The Company has continued its efforts to support its customers affected by the pandemic and to maintain asset quality and balance sheet strength, including the following:

From time to time, Bancorp and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business or otherwise are incidental to various aspects of its operations. Based upon information available to the Company and its review of any such litigation with counsel, management presently believes that the liability relating to such litigation, if any, would not be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity taken as a whole. The outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters is inherently uncertain, however, and it is possible that one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity taken as a whole.

Although the Company establishes accruals for legal proceedings when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company does not have accruals for all legal proceedings where there is a risk of loss. In addition, amounts accrued may not represent the ultimate loss to the Company from the legal proceedings in question. Thus, ultimate losses may be higher or lower, and possibly significantly so, than the amounts accrued for legal loss contingencies.

In the normal course of business, the Company from time to time becomes a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of loans, or through commercial or standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. These instruments represent varying degrees of exposure to risk in excess of the amounts included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contractual or notional amount of these instruments indicates a level of activity associated with a particular class of financial instrument and is not a reflection of the level of expected losses, if any.

The Company’s unfunded commitments related to investments in qualified affordable housing and alternative energy partnerships were ~~$119.0~~$140.8 million and ~~$103.1~~$107.7 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

The Company determines if a contract arrangement is a lease at inception and primarily enters into operating lease contracts for its branch locations, office space and certain equipment. As part of its property lease agreements, the Company ~~may~~ seek to include options to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. The Right-of-Use (“ROU”) lease asset also includes any lease payments made and lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does ~~not~~ ~~possess any leases that have variable lease payments or residual value guarantees as of~~ ~~September 30, 2021.~~

~~ASU~~ ~~2016~~-~~02,~~ ~~“Leases (Topic~~ ~~842~~~~),” as amended by ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2018~~-~~01,~~ ~~“Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic~~ ~~842”;~~ ~~ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2018~~-~~10,~~ ~~“Codification Improvements to Topic~~ ~~842,~~ ~~Leases”; and ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2018~~-~~11,~~ ~~“Targeted Improvements,” establishes a ROU model that requires a lessee to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than~~ 12 ~~months. The standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We have elected the “package of practical expedients,” which permits us~~ ~~not~~ to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We also elected all of the new standard’s available transition practical expedients, including the short-term lease recognition exemption that includes ~~not~~ ~~recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases, and the practical expedient to~~ ~~not~~ ~~separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases.The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of its lease liabilities.~~

~~The following table presents the operating lease amounts reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and other supplemental information as of~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ ~~December 31, 2020:~~

~~Operating lease expense was $3.2 million and $3.1 million for the~~ ~~three~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ ~~2020,~~ ~~respectively, and includes short-term leases that were immaterial. Operating lease expense was $9.5 million and $8.8 million for the~~ ~~nine~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ ~~September 30, 2020,~~ ~~respectively, and includes short-term leases that were immaterial. Operating cash flows from operating leases were $2.5 million and $2.2 million for the~~ ~~three~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ ~~2020,~~ ~~respectively. Operating cash flows from operating leases were $7.4 million and $6.8 million for the~~ ~~nine~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ ~~2020,~~ ~~respectively. In the~~ ~~nine~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ the Company recognized an ROU asset impairment of $187 thousand related to an early termination of a lease agreement. This amount was included in other expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

~~The following table presents a maturity analysis of the Company’s operating lease liabilities as of~~ ~~September 30, 2021,~~ ~~and~~ ~~December 31, 2020,~~ ~~respectively.~~

Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) – There were 0 over-night borrowings from the FHLB as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Advances from the FHLB were $95.0 million at a weighted average rate of 1.92% as of June 30, 2022, and $20.0 million at a weighted average rate of 2.89% as of ~~September 30, 2021,~~ ~~and $150.0 million at a weighted average rate of 2.15% as of~~ December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, FHLB advances of $20.0 million will mature in May ~~2023.~~2023 and $75.0 million will mature in July 2022.

Junior Subordinated Notes – The Company established three special purpose trusts in 2003 and two in 2007 for the purpose of issuing Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in their Subordinated Debentures to outside investors (“Capital Securities”). The proceeds from the issuance of the Capital Securities as well as our purchase of the common stock of the special purpose trusts were invested in Junior Subordinated Notes of the Company (“Junior Subordinated Notes”). The trusts exist for the purpose of issuing the Capital Securities and investing in Junior Subordinated Notes. Subject to some limitations, payment of distributions out of the monies held by the trusts and payments on liquidation of the trusts, or the redemption of the Capital Securities, are guaranteed by the Company to the extent the trusts have funds on hand at such time. The obligations of the Company under the guarantees and the Junior Subordinated Notes are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all indebtedness of the Company and are structurally subordinated to all liabilities and obligations of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company has the right to defer payments of interest on the Junior Subordinated Notes at any time or from time to time for a period of up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods with respect to each deferral period. Under the terms of the Junior Subordinated Notes, the Company may not, with certain exceptions, declare or pay any dividends or distributions on its capital stock or purchase or acquire any of its capital stock if it has deferred payment of interest on any Junior Subordinated Notes.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, Junior Subordinated Notes totaled $119.1 million with a weighted average interest rate of ~~2.36%~~4.12%, compared to $119.1 million with a weighted average rate of ~~2.40%~~2.38% at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The Junior Subordinated Notes have a stated maturity term of 30 years.

The effective tax rate for the first ~~nine~~six months of ~~2021~~2022 was ~~21.3%~~22.4% compared to ~~8.6%~~22.3% for the first ~~nine~~six months of ~~2020.~~2021. The effective tax rate includes the impact of low-income housing and alternative energy investment tax credits.

The Company’s tax returns are open for audit by the Internal Revenue Service back to 2018 and by the California Franchise Tax Board back to 2017.

It is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits could change significantly over the next twelve months. The Company does not expect that any such changes would have a material impact on its annual effective tax rate.

The Company uses fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, primarily securities available-for-sale and derivatives. For assets measured at the lower of cost or fair value, the fair value measurement criteria may or may not be met during a reporting period and such measurements are therefore considered “nonrecurring” for purposes of disclosing our fair value measurements. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to adjust carrying values for individually evaluated loans and other real estate owned and also to record impairment on certain assets, such as goodwill, CDI, and other long-lived assets.

The Company used valuation methodologies to measure assets at fair value under ASC Topic 820 and ASC Topic 825, as amended by ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2018-03, to estimate the fair value of financial instruments not recorded at fair value. The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities is classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether inputs to the valuation methodology used are observable or unobservable, and the significance of those inputs in the fair value measurement. The Company’s assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurements.

The Company uses the following methodologies to measure the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis:

Securities Available-for-Sale and Equity Securities - For certain actively traded agency preferred stocks, mutual funds, U.S. Treasury securities, and other equity securities, the Company measures the fair value based on quoted market prices in active exchange markets at the reporting date, a Level 1 measurement. The Company also measures securities by using quoted market prices for similar securities or dealer quotes, a Level 2 measurement. This category generally includes U.S. Government agency securities, U.S. Government sponsored entities, state and municipal securities, mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), collateralized mortgage obligations and corporate bonds.

Warrants - The Company measures the fair value of warrants based on unobservable inputs based on assumptions and management judgment, a Level 3 measurement.

Interest Rate Swaps – The Company measures the fair value of interest rate swaps using third party models with observable market data, a Level 2 measurement.

Currency Option Contracts and Foreign Exchange Contracts - The Company measures the fair value of currency option contracts and foreign exchange contracts based on observable market rates on a recurring basis, a Level 2 measurement.

The following tables present financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

Financial assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis:

Certain assets or liabilities are required to be measured at estimated fair value on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to initial recognition. Generally, these adjustments are the result of lower-of-cost-or-fair value or other impairment write-downs of individual assets. In determining the estimated fair values during the period, the Company determined that substantially all the changes in estimated fair value were due to declines in market conditions versus instrument specific credit risk. For the periods ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there were no material adjustments to fair value for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP.

For financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that were still reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the following tables set forth the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment, the carrying value of the related individual assets as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, and the total losses for the periods indicated:

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral-dependent individually evaluated loans are primarily based on the appraised value of collateral adjusted by estimated sales cost and commissions. The Company generally obtains new appraisal reports every twelve months as appropriate. As the Company’s primary objective in the event of default would be to monetize the collateral to settle the outstanding balance of the loan, less marketable collateral would receive a larger discount. In the current year, the Company used borrower specific collateral discounts with various discount levels.

The fair value of individually evaluated loans is calculated based on the net realizable fair value of the collateral or the observable market price of the most recent sale or quoted price from loans held for sale. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral dependent individually evaluated loans are recorded based on the current appraised value of the collateral, a Level 2 measurement, or management’s judgment and estimation of value using discounted future cash flows or old appraisals which are then adjusted based on recent market trends, a Level 3 measurement.

The significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) used in the fair value measurement of other real estate owned (“OREO”) are primarily based on the appraised value of OREO adjusted by estimated sales cost and commissions. The Company applies estimated sales cost and commissions ranging from 3% to 6% of the collateral value of individually evaluated loans, quoted price, or loan sale price of loans held for sale, and appraised value of OREO.

The significant unobservable inputs in the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the fair value of warrants are their expected life ranging from one to five years, risk-free interest rate from ~~0.18%~~0.41% to ~~1.16%~~3.27%, and stock volatility from ~~14.86%~~9.03% to ~~20.34%~~20.82%.

Fair value is estimated in accordance with ASC Topic 825. Fair value estimates are made at specific points in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Bank’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Bank’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

The following table sets forth the carrying and notional amounts and estimated fair value of financial instruments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020:~~2021:

Total goodwill was $375.7 million as of June 30, 2022 compared with $372.2 million as of ~~both~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~ ~~and~~ December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The increase of $3.5 million is a result of the acquisition of HSBC’s West Coast mass retail market consumer banking business and retail business banking business on February 7, 2022. The Company’s policy is to assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or between annual assessments if a triggering event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. ~~The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment testing as of~~ ~~December 31, 2020~~ ~~and determined there was 0 goodwill impairment.~~

It is our policy not to speculate on the future direction of interest rates. However, from time to time, we may enter into financial derivatives in order to seek mitigation of exposure to interest rate risks related to our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We believe that these transactions, when properly structured and managed, may provide a hedge against inherent interest rate risk in our assets or liabilities and against risk in specific transactions. In such instances, we may enter into interest rate swap contracts or other types of financial derivatives. Prior to considering any hedging activities, we seek to analyze the costs and benefits of the hedge in comparison to other viable alternative strategies. All hedges must be approved by the Bank’s Investment Committee.

The Company follows ASC Topic 815 that establishes accounting and reporting standards for financial derivatives, including certain financial derivatives embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. It requires the recognition of all financial derivatives as assets or liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and measurement of those financial derivatives at fair value. The accounting treatment of changes in fair value is dependent upon whether or not a financial derivative is designated as a hedge and, if so, the type of hedge. Fair value is determined using third-party models with observable market data. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and are reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reflected in current earnings, together with changes in the fair value of the related hedged item if there is a highly effective correlation between changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and changes in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability that is intended to be hedged. If there is not a highly effective correlation between changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap and changes in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability that is intended to be hedged, then only the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company offers various interest rate derivative contracts to its customers. When derivative transactions are executed with its customers, the derivative contracts are offset by paired trades with third-party financial institutions including with central counterparties (“CCP”). Certain derivative contracts entered with CCPs are settled-to-market daily to the extent the CCP’s rulebooks legally characterize the variation margin as settlement. Derivative contracts are intended to allow borrowers to lock in attractive intermediate and long-term fixed rate financing while not increasing the interest rate risk to the Company. These transactions are generally not linked to specific Company assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets or to forecasted transactions in a hedging relationship and, therefore, are economic hedges. The contracts are marked to market at each reporting period. The changes in fair values of the derivative contracts traded with third-party financial institutions are expected to be largely comparable to the changes in fair values of the derivative transactions executed with customers throughout the terms of these contracts, except for the credit valuation adjustment component. The Company records credit valuation adjustments on derivatives to properly reflect the variances of credit worthiness between the Company and the counterparties, considering the effects of enforceable master netting agreements and collateral arrangements.

In May 2014, Bancorp entered into interest rate swap contracts in the notional amount of $119.1 million for a period of ten years. The objective of these interest rate swap contracts, which were designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges, was to hedge the quarterly interest payments on Bancorp’s $119.1 million of Junior Subordinated Debentures that had been issued to five trusts, throughout the ten-year period beginning in June 2014 and ending in June 2024, from the risk of variability of these payments resulting from changes in the three-month LIBOR interest rate. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020,~~2021, the ineffective portion of these interest rate swaps was not significant. The notional amount and net unrealized loss of the Company’s cash flow derivative financial instruments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were as follows:

~~As of~~ ~~September 30, 2021,~~ ~~the Bank’s outstanding interest rate swap contracts had a notional amount of $779.4 million for various terms from~~ ~~three~~ to ~~ten~~ ~~years.~~ The Bank entered into ~~these~~ interest rate swap contracts that are matched to fixed-rate CRE loans in the Bank’s loan portfolio. These contracts have been designated as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of the underlying CRE loans due to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank’s outstanding interest rate swap contracts had a notional amount of $901.4 million for various terms from three to ten years. The swap contracts are structured so that the notional amounts reduce over time to match the contractual amortization of the underlying loan and allow prepayments with the same pre-payment penalty amounts as the related loan. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, the ineffective portion of these interest rate swaps was not significant. ~~The notional amount and net unrealized loss of the Company’s fair value derivative financial instruments as of~~ ~~September 30, 2021,~~ ~~and~~ ~~December 31, 2020,~~ ~~were as follows:~~

The Company has designated as a partial-term hedging election ~~$404.7~~$670.8 million notional as last-of-layer hedge on pools of loans with a notational value of ~~$816.7 million~~$1.3 billion as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The loans are not expected to be affected by prepayment, defaults, or other factors affecting the timing and amount of cash flows under the last-of-layer method. The Company has entered into these pay-fixed and receive 1-Month LIBOR interest rate swaps to convert the last-of-layer ~~$404.7~~$670.8 million portion of ~~$816.7 million~~$1.3 billion fixed rate loan pools in order to reduce the Company’s exposure to higher interest rates for the last-of-layer tranches. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the last-of-layer loan tranche had a fair value basis adjustment of ~~$943 thousand.~~$20.0 million. The interest rate swap converts this last-of-layer tranche into a floating rate instrument. The Company’s risk management objective with respect to this last-of-layer interest rate swap is to reduce interest rate exposure as to the last-of-layer tranche.

Interest rate swap contracts involve the risk of dealing with institutional derivative counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. Institutional counterparties must have a strong credit profile and be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps is limited to the net favorable value and interest payments of all swaps by each counterparty. Credit exposure may be reduced by the amount of collateral pledged by the counterparty. Bancorp’s interest rate swaps have been assigned by the counterparties to a derivative clearing organization and daily margin is indirectly maintained with the derivative clearing organization. ~~Cash~~There was 0 cash collateral deposit posted ~~as collateral~~ by Bancorp related to derivative contracts ~~totaled $24.3 million~~ as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$11.9~~$5.9 million as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

~~From time to time,~~The notional amount and net unrealized loss of the Company’s fair value derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, were as follows:

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts with various counterparties to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for foreign exchange certificates of deposit or foreign exchange contracts entered into with our clients. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of these contracts as well as the related foreign exchange certificates of deposit and foreign exchange contracts are recognized immediately in net income as a component of non-interest income. Period end gross positive fair values are recorded in other assets and gross negative fair values are recorded in other liabilities.

The notional amount and fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were as follows:

Certain financial instruments, including resell and repurchase agreements, securities lending arrangements and derivatives, may be eligible for offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and/or subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. The Company’s securities sold with agreements to repurchase and derivative transactions with upstream financial institution counterparties are generally executed under International Swaps and Derivative Association master agreements that include “right of set-off” provisions. In such cases, there is generally a legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there may be an intention to settle such amounts on a net basis. Nonetheless, the Company does not generally offset such financial instruments for financial reporting purposes.

Financial instruments that are eligible for offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, are set forth in the following table:

The major revenue streams by fee type that are within the scope of ASC 606 presented in the above table isare described in additional detail below:

Fees and service charges on deposit accounts include charges for analysis, overdraft, cash checking, ATM, and safe deposit activities executed by our deposit clients, as well as interchange income earned through card payment networks for the acceptance of card-based transactions. Fees earned from our deposit clients are governed by contracts that provide for overall custody and access to deposited funds and other related services and can be terminated at will by either party. Fees received from deposit clients for the various deposit activities are recognized as revenue by the Company once the performance obligations are met.

The Company employs financial consultants to provide investment planning services for customers including wealth management services, asset allocation strategies, portfolio analysis and monitoring, investment strategies, and risk management strategies. The fees the Company earns are variable and are generally received monthly by the Company. The Company recognizes revenue for the services performed at quarter end based on actual transaction details received from the broker dealer the Company engages.

The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations as the Company’s contracts with customers generally have a term that is less than one year are open-ended with a cancellation period that is less than one year or allow the Company to recognize revenue in the amount to which the Company has the right to invoice.

In addition, given the short-term nature of the contracts, the Company also applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-32-18 and does not adjust the consideration from customers for the effects of a significant financing component, if at contract inception the period between when the entity transfers the goods or services and when the customer pays for that good or service is one year or less.

On ~~April 1, 2021,~~ ~~the Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program to buy back up to $75.0 million of the Company’s common stock. The~~ ~~$75.0~~ ~~million share repurchase program was completed and terminated on~~ ~~August 5, 2021~~ ~~with the repurchase of 1,832,481 shares for a total of $74.9 million, at an average cost of $40.93 per share in the~~ ~~nine~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021.~~

On ~~September 2, 2021,~~May 26, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program to buy back up to $125.0 million of the Company’s common stock. ~~During the quarter ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021,~~ ~~the~~The Company repurchased ~~942,613~~749,998 shares ~~of common stock~~ for ~~a total of $37.1~~$30.6 million, at an average cost of ~~$39.40~~$40.78 per ~~share.~~share during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The Company has evaluated the effect of events that have occurred subsequent to ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, through the date of issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and, based on such evaluation, the Company believes that there have been no material events during such period that would require recognition in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosure in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion is based on the assumption that the reader has access to and has read the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical accounting policies involve significant judgments, assumptions and uncertainties and are essential to understanding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Management of the Company considers the following to be critical accounting policies:

Accounting for the allowance for loan losses involves significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on, among other things, the carrying value of net loans. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances as described in “Allowance for Credit Losses” under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in the ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K. For more information, please also see Note 23 to the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly heightened the level of challenges, risks and uncertainties facing our Company and its operations.~~

Additional potential impacts arising from, and our anticipated responses to, the COVID-19 pandemic are set forth below. See also the COVID-related risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of the 2020 Form 10-K.

~~The below table details our exposure to borrowers in industries generally considered to be the most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic:~~

While we have not experienced disproportionate impacts among our business segments as of September 30, 2021, borrowers in the industries detailed in the table above (and potentially other industries) could have greater sensitivity to the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic with potentially longer recovery periods than other business lines.

We began receiving requests from our borrowers for loan deferrals in March 2020 following the onset of the pandemic. Modifications include the deferral of principal payments or the deferral of principal and interest payments for terms generally 90 - 180 days. Requests are evaluated individually, and approved modifications are based on the unique circumstances of each borrower. We are committed to working with our clients to allow time to work through the challenges of this pandemic. At this time, it is uncertain what future impact loan modifications related to COVID-19 difficulties will have on our financial condition, results of operations and reserve for loan losses.

As of September 30, 2021, there were seven COVID-19 residential mortgage loan modifications outstanding, or $5.1 million, with a weighted average loan to value ratio of 58.6% that represented 0.1% of the total residential mortgage loan portfolio and three, or $2.8 million, in commercial loan balances that represented 0.1% of total commercial loans.

As of September 30, 2021, there were six CRE loan modifications outstanding of $44.8 million, with a weighted average loan to value ratio of 40.1% that represent 0.6% of the total CRE loan portfolio. All of these $44.8 million of real estate loan modifications are paying interests.

The CARES Act, as extended by the CAA, permits financial institutions to suspend requirements under GAAP for loan modifications to borrowers affected by COVID-19 and is intended to provide interpretive guidance as to conditions that would constitute a short-term modification that would not meet the definition of a TDR. This includes the following (i) the loan modification is made between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of January 1, 2022, or 60 days after the end of the coronavirus emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. The Company is applying this guidance to qualifying loan modifications and anticipates that it will continue to experience an increase in short-term modifications.

As part of the CARES Act, the SBA has been authorized to guarantee loans under the PPP through September 30, 2021 for small businesses who meet the necessary eligibility requirements in order to keep their workers on the payroll. One of the notable features of the PPP is that borrowers are eligible for loan forgiveness if borrowers, among other conditions, maintain their staff and payroll and if loan amounts are used to cover payroll, mortgage interest, rents and utilities payments. These loans have a two-to-five-year term and earn interest at a rate of 1%. We began accepting applications on April 3, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, our outstanding PPP loans had a current balance of $169.4 million and $264.4 million of PPP loans had been forgiven by the U.S. Treasury. PPP loans are guaranteed by the SBA and therefore we believe PPP loans generally do not represent a material credit risk.

Net income for the quarter ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, was ~~$72.4~~$89.0 million, an increase of ~~$15.6~~$11.8 million, or ~~27.5%~~15.3%, compared to net income of ~~$56.8~~$77.2 million for the same quarter a year ago. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, was ~~$0.93~~$1.18 per share compared to ~~$0.71~~$0.97 per share for the same quarter a year ago.

Return on average stockholders’ equity was ~~11.61%~~14.62% and return on average assets was ~~1.45%~~1.69% for the quarter ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to a return on average stockholders’ equity of ~~9.53%~~12.53% and a return on average assets of ~~1.18%~~1.60% for the same quarter a year ago.

Net interest income before provision for credit losses increased ~~$15.0~~$27.2 million, or ~~10.9%~~18.4%, to ~~$152.5~~$175.1 million during the ~~third~~second quarter of ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~$137.5~~$148.0 million during the same quarter a year ago. The increase was due primarily to an increase in interest income from loans and securities and a decrease in interest expense from deposits.

The net interest margin was ~~3.22%~~3.52% for the ~~third~~second quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~3.02% for the third quarter of 2020 and~~ 3.24% for the second quarter of ~~2021.~~2021 and 3.26% for the first quarter of 2022.

For the ~~third~~second quarter of 2022, the yield on average interest-earning assets was 3.81%, the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities was 0.41%, and the cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.37%. In comparison, for the second quarter of 2021, the yield on average interest-earning assets was ~~3.56%~~3.62%, the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities was ~~0.48%~~0.53%, and the cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.44%. In comparison, for the third quarter of 2020, the yield on average interest-earning assets was 3.78%, the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities was 1.04%, and the cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.99%0.48%. The ~~decrease~~increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets resulted mainly from ~~lower lending~~higher interest rates. The decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities was a result of the renewal of maturing higher rate certificates of deposit at lower rates and the continuing run off of brokered CD’s during the quarter. The net interest spread, defined as the difference between the yield on average interest-earning assets and the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities, was ~~3.08%~~3.40% for the quarter ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022 compared to ~~2.74%~~3.09% for the same quarter a year ago.

The following table sets forth information concerning average interest-earning assets, average interest-bearing liabilities, and the average yields and rates paid on those assets and liabilities for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020.~~2021.

As permitted under the CARES Act and as extended by the CAA, the Company adopted the CECL methodology for estimated credit losses effective as of January 1, 2021. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to a reversal for credit losses of $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 and a $12.5 million provision for loan losses in the third quarter of 2020. The third quarter provision for credit losses were primarily driven by the net charge-offs during the period and growth of loans. As of September 30, 2021, the allowance for loan losses increased by $689 thousand to $131.9 million, or 0.83% of gross loans, compared to $131.3 million, or 0.84% of gross loans, as of June 30, 2021. The change in the allowance for loan losses included a $3 million provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2021, and $2.3 million in net charge-offs. In the third quarter of 2020, a provision for loan losses of $12.5 million was recorded under the incurred loss method, which includes management’s projection of the potential impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic at that time. The Company will continue to monitor the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on credit risks and losses, as well as on customer deposits and other liabilities and assets.

~~The following table sets forth the charge-offs and recoveries for the periods indicated:~~

Non-interest income, which includes revenues from depository service fees, letters of credit commissions, securities gains (losses), wire transfer fees, and other sources of fee income, was $12.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $2.2 million, or 22.0%, compared to $10.0 million for the third quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in net loss from equity securities, a $1.0 million increase in wealth management fees and commissions offset, in part by, a $1.4 million decrease in gain on low-income housing investments, when compared to the same quarter a year ago.

Non-interest expense decreased $3.8 million, or 5.0%, to $72.2 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $76.0 million in the same quarter a year ago. The decrease in non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to $3.8 million in higher amortization expense of investments in low-income housing and alternative energy partnerships in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2021. The efficiency ratio was 43.85% in the third quarter of 2021 compared to 51.53% for the same quarter a year ago.

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2021 was 19.05% compared to 3.7% for the third quarter of 2020. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company made a new alternative energy investment which resulted in a lower full year effective tax rate for 2020 resulting from tax credits generated from the new alternative energy investment. The effective tax rate includes the impact of alternative energy investments and low-income housing tax credits.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $223.0 million, an increase of $65.0 million, or 41.1%, compared to net income of $158.0 million for the same period a year ago. Diluted earnings per share was $2.82 compared to $1.98 per share for the same period a year ago. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was 3.22% compared to 3.12% for the same period a year ago.

Return on average stockholders’ equity was 12.11% and return on average assets was 1.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a return on average stockholders’ equity of 8.99% and a return on average assets of 1.13% for the same period a year ago. The efficiency ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was 44.71% compared to 46.98% for the same period a year ago.

The following table sets forth information concerning average interest-earning assets, average interest-bearing liabilities, and the average yields and rates paid on those assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020. Average outstanding amounts included in the table are daily averages.

~~The following table summarizes the changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume and changes in interest rates:~~

As permitted under the Coronavirus, Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and as extended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, the Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) methodology for estimated credit losses effective as of January 1, 2021. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to a provision for credit losses of $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and a reversal for credit losses of $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. In 2022, the first and second quarter provision for credit losses were primarily driven by the growth in loans during the period. As of June 30, 2022, the allowance for loan losses increased by $12.6 million to $148.8 million, or 0.84% of gross loans, compared to $136.2 million, or 0.83% of gross loans, as of December 31, 2021. The change in the allowance for loan losses during the second quarter of 2022 consisted of a $2.8 million provision for loan losses, and $218 thousand in net charge-offs. The Company will continue to monitor the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on credit risks and losses, as well as on customer deposits and other liabilities and assets.

The following table sets forth the charge-offs and recoveries for the periods indicated:

Non-interest income, which includes revenues from depository service fees, letters of credit commissions, ~~equity~~ securities gains (losses), wire transfer fees, and other sources of fee income, was ~~$34.8~~$14.6 million for the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2021,~~second quarter of 2022, an increase of ~~$3.4~~$2.0 million, or ~~10.8%~~15.9%, compared to ~~$31.4~~$12.6 million for the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2020.~~second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to ~~a $3.1~~an increase of $0.9 million ~~increase~~ in ~~wealth management~~loan fees, ~~and commissions, a $1.9 million increase in derivative fees, offset, in part, by a $2.0 million increase in net losses from equity securities~~ when compared to the same ~~period~~quarter a year ago.

The efficiency ratio was 39.1% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 43.4% for the same quarter a year ago.

The effective tax rate for the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2021~~second quarter of 2022 was ~~21.3%~~21.4% compared to ~~8.6%~~22.7% for the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2020.~~second quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate ~~was lower in 2020 due to~~includes the impact of ~~higher tax credits from~~ alternative energy ~~investment~~investments and low-income housing tax credits.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $164.0 million, an increase of $13.4 million, or 8.9%, compared to net income of $150.6 million for the same period a year ago.

The following table sets forth information concerning average interest-earning assets, average interest-bearing liabilities, and the average yields and rates paid on those assets and liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021. Average outstanding amounts included in the table are daily averages.

The following table summarizes the changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume and changes in interest rates for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Total assets were ~~$19.9~~$21.2 billion as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022 an increase of ~~$817.3~~$348.8 million or ~~4.3%,~~1.7% from ~~$19.0~~$20.9 billion as of December 31, ~~2020, primarily due to an increase in short-term investments and commercial mortgage loans.~~2021.

Prior to January 1, 2021, debt securities available-for-sale were measured at fair value and declines in the fair value were reviewed to determine whether the impairment was other-than-temporary. If we did not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, then an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) was considered to have occurred. The cost basis of the security was written down to its estimated fair value and the amount of the write-down was recognized through a charge to earnings. If the amount of the amortized cost basis expected to be recovered increased in a future period, the cost basis of the security was not increased but rather recognized prospectively through interest income.

Effective January 1, 2021, upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, debt securities available-for-sale are measured at fair value and subject to impairment testing. When an available-for-sale debt security is considered impaired, the Company must determine if the decline in fair value has resulted from a credit-related loss or other factors and then, (1) recognize an allowance for credit losses by a charge to earnings for the credit-related component (if any) of the decline in fair value, and (2) recognize in other comprehensive income (loss) any non-credit related components of the fair value change. If the amount of the amortized cost basis expected to be recovered increases in a future period, the valuation reserve would be reduced, but not more than the amount of the current existing reserve for that security.

For available-for-sale ~~("AFS"~~(“AFS”) debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value. For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors with the credit component of the unrealized loss of the impaired AFS debt security recognized as an allowance for credit losses, and a corresponding provision for credit losses on the consolidated statement of income. ~~For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors.~~

In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, the payment structure of the security, failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. Any fair value changes that have not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of an AFS debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision for credit loss expense.

The amortized cost of the Company’s AFS debt securities excludes accrued interest, which is included in “accrued interest income” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election not to measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables on AFS debt securities since the Company timely reverses any previously accrued interest when the debt security remains in default for an extended period. As each AFS debt security has a unique security structure, where the accrual status is clearly determined when certain criteria listed in the terms are met, the Company assesses the default status of each security as defined by the debt security’s specific security structure. At June 30, 2022, no AFS debt securities were in default.

In the current period, management evaluated the securities in an unrealized loss position and determined that their unrealized losses were a result of the level of market interest rates relative to the types of securities and pricing changes caused by shifting supply and demand dynamics and not a result of downgraded credit ratings or other indicators of deterioration of the underlying issuers' ability to repay. Accordingly, we determined the unrealized losses were not credit-related and recognized the unrealized losses in "other comprehensive income" in stockholders' equity. Although we periodically sell securities for portfolio management purposes, we do not foresee having to sell any impaired securities strictly for liquidity needs and believe that it is more likely than not we would not be required to sell any impaired securities before recovery of their amortized cost.

Securities available-for-sale represented ~~5.4%~~5.8% of total assets as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to 5.4% of total assets as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Securities available-for-sale were ~~$1.1~~$1.2 billion as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~$1.0~~$1.1 billion as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Securities available-for-sale having a carrying value of ~~$30.1~~$102.9 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~$22.7~~$30.5 million as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were pledged to secure public deposits, other borrowings and treasury tax and loan.

The Company recognized a net ~~gain of $3 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021, due to the increase in fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values compared to a net~~ loss of ~~$1.6~~$1.0 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020. The Company recognized a net loss of $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021,~~2022, due to the decrease in fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values compared to a net loss of ~~$1.9~~$0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company recognized a net gain of $5.0 million for the six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~2022 due to the increase in fair value of equity investments readily determinable fair values compared to a net loss of $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Equity securities were ~~$20.1~~$26.8 million and ~~$23.7~~$22.3 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

Gross loans were ~~$16.0~~$17.8 billion at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, an increase of ~~$332.4 million,~~$1.4 billion, or ~~2.1%~~8.6%, from ~~$15.6~~$16.3 billion at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The increase was primarily due to increases of ~~$280.5~~$212.1 million, or ~~3.71%~~7.1%, in commercial loans, an increase of $863.4 million, or 20.7% in residential mortgage loans, which included $592.9 million acquired from the acquisition of certain HSBC West Coast branches, and an increase of $419.7 million, or 5.2 % in commercial mortgage loans, ~~and~~offset, in part, by a ~~$106.4~~decrease of $42.5 million, ~~increase,~~ or ~~4.1%~~10.1%, in ~~commercial~~home equity loans. For the second quarter of 2022, total loans, increased by $389.5 million or 9.5% annualized.

The loan balances and composition at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to December 31, ~~2020~~2021 are set forth below:

Non-performing assets include loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, non-accrual loans, and OREO. ~~The Company’s~~Our policy is to place loans on non-accrual status if interest and/or principal is past due 90 days or more, or in cases where management deems the full collection of principal and interest unlikely. After a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed and charged against current income and subsequent payments received are generally first applied towards the outstanding principal balance of the loan. Depending on the circumstances, management may elect to continue the accrual of interest on certain past due loans if partial payment is received and/or the loan is well collateralized and in the process of collection. The loan is generally returned to accrual status when the borrower has brought the past due principal and interest payments current and, in the opinion of management, the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments of principal and interest as scheduled.

Management reviews the loan portfolio regularly to seek to identify problem loans. ~~From time to time during~~During the ordinary course of business, management may become aware of borrowers that may not be able to meet the contractual requirements of their loan agreements. Such loans generally are placed under closer supervision with consideration given to placing the loans on non-accrual status, the need for an additional allowance for loan losses, and (if appropriate) partial or full charge-off.

The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was ~~0.4% at September~~0.3% as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~0.4% at~~0.3% as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Total non-performing assets ~~increased $0.7~~decreased $5.2 million, or ~~0.9%~~7.3%, to ~~$78.3~~$66.5 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~$77.6~~$71.7 million at December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to a decrease of $5.2 million, or 7.9%, in non-accrual loans, and a decrease of $301 thousand in other real estate owned, offset in part, by an increase of ~~$1.0 million,~~$298 thousand or ~~1.5%,~~20.7% in ~~non-accruing loans.~~accruing loans past due 90 days or more.

As a percentage of gross loans, excluding loans held for sale, plus OREO, our non-performing assets were ~~0.49%~~0.37% as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~0.50%~~0.44% as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The non-performing loan portfolio coverage ratio, defined as the allowance for credit losses to non-performing loans, ~~decreased~~increased to ~~191.8%~~248.3% as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, from ~~237.3%~~212.9% as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The allowance for the collateral-dependent loans is calculated based on the difference between the outstanding loan balance and the value of the collateral as determined by recent appraisals, sales contracts, or other available market price information, less cost to sell. The allowance for collateral-dependent loans varies from loan to loan based on the collateral coverage of the loan at the time of designation as non-performing. We continue to monitor the collateral coverage of these loans, based on recent appraisals, on a quarterly basis and adjust the allowance accordingly. ~~Non-accrual loans also include those TDRs that do not qualify for accrual status.~~

The following tables set forth the type of properties securing the non-accrual portfolio loans and the type of businesses the borrowers engaged in as of the dates indicated:

~~Impaired Loans~~(1) Real estate includes commercial mortgage loans, real estate construction loans, residential mortgage loans and equity lines.

Prior to January 1, 2021, a loan was considered to be impaired when it was probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement based on current circumstances

(1) Real estate includes commercial mortgage loans, real estate construction loans, residential mortgage loans and events. The assessment for impairment occurs when and while such loans are on non-accrual as a result of delinquency status of over 90 days or our receipt of information otherwise indicating that full collection of principal is doubtful, or when the loan has been restructured in a TDRs. Those loans with a balance less than our defined selection criteria, generally a loan amount less than $500 thousand, are treated as a homogeneous portfolio. If loans meeting the defined criteria are not collateral dependent, we measure the impairment based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. If loans meeting the defined criteria are collateral dependent, we measure the impairment by using the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral. We generally obtain an appraisal to determine the amount of impairment at the date that the loan becomes impaired. The appraisals are generally based on “as is” or bulk sale valuations. To ensure that appraised values remain current, we generally obtain an updated appraisal every twelve months from qualified independent appraisers. If the fair value of the collateral, less cost to sell, is less than the recorded amount of the loan, we then recognize impairment by creating or adjusting an existing valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. If an impaired loan is expected to be collected through liquidation of the collateral, the amount of impairment, excluding disposal costs (which generally range between 3% to 6% of the fair value, depending on the size of the impaired loan), is charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Non-accrual impaired loans, including TDRs, are not returned to accrual status unless the unpaid interest has been brought current and full repayment of the recorded balance is expected or if the borrower has made six consecutive monthly payments of the scheduled amounts due, and TDRs are reviewed for continued impairment until they are no longer reported as TDRs.equity lines.

As of ~~September~~June 30, 2022, recorded investment in non-accrual loans was $60.7 million. As of December 31, 2021, recorded investment in non-accrual loans ~~was $68.7 million. As of December 31, 2020, recorded investment in impaired loans~~ totaled ~~$95.4 million and was comprised of non-accrual loans of $67.7 million and accruing TDRs of $27.7~~$65.8 million. For non-accrual loans, the amounts previously charged off represent ~~10.6%~~2.6% of the contractual balances for non-accrual loans as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021. For impaired loans, the amounts previously charged off represent 7.1%~~2022 and 10.7% as of December 31, ~~2020, of the contractual balances for impaired loans.~~2021. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021, $51.6~~2022, $32.7 million, or ~~75.1%~~53.9%, of the ~~$68.7~~$60.7 million of non-accrual loans were secured by real estate compared to ~~$44.6~~$49.3 million, or ~~65.9%~~74.9%, of the ~~$67.7~~$65.8 million of non-accrual loans that were secured by real estate as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The Bank generally seeks to obtain current appraisals, sales contracts, or other available market price information intended to provide updated factors in evaluating potential loss.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021, $6.5~~2022, $7.0 million of the ~~$131.9~~$148.8 million allowance for loan losses was allocated for non-accrual loans and ~~$125.4 million was allocated to the general allowance. As of December 31, 2020, $6.4 million of the $166.5 million allowance for loan losses was allocated for impaired loans and $160.1~~$141.8 million was allocated to the general allowance.

The allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was ~~180.7%~~238.5% as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~229.2%~~202.4% as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to ~~an increase~~a decrease in the non-accrual loans.

In connection with the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the Company no longer provides information on impaired loans. The following table presents impaired loans and the related allowance as of December 31, 2020:

In accordance with customary banking practice, ~~we originate~~ construction loans and land development loans generally are originated where interest on the loan is disbursed from pre-established interest reserves included in the total original loan commitment. Our construction loans and land development loans generally include optional renewal terms after the maturity of the initial loan term. New appraisals are obtained prior to extension or renewal of these loans in part to determine the appropriate interest reserve to be established for the new loan term. Loans with interest reserves are generally underwritten to the same criteria, including loan to value and, if applicable, pro forma debt service coverage ratios, as loans without interest reserves. Construction loans with interest reserves are monitored on a periodic basis to gauge progress towards completion. Interest reserves are frozen if it is determined that additional draws would result in a loan to value ratio that exceeds policy maximums based on collateral property type. Our policy limits in this regard are consistent with supervisory limits and range from 50% in the case of land to 85% in the case of one to four family residential construction projects.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, construction loans of ~~$583.4~~$514.2 million were disbursed with pre-established interest reserves of ~~$48.0~~$52.2 million, compared to ~~$643.5~~$520.5 million with pre-established interest reserves of ~~$71.0~~$51.1 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The balance for construction loans with interest reserves that have been extended was ~~$50.2~~$10.3 million with pre-established interest reserves of ~~$1.9~~$0.3 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to ~~$127.0~~$20.4 million with pre-established interest reserves of ~~$4.4~~$0.4 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The~~2021. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the balance for land loans with interest reserves that have been extended was ~~$942 thousand at September 30, 2021~~$0.9 million with pre-established interest reserves of $58 ~~thousand, compared to $942 thousand in land loans with pre-established interest reserves of $58 thousand at December 31, 2020.~~thousand.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Bank had no loans on non-accrual status with available interest reserves. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there ~~was $4.1 million and $4.3 million of~~were zero non-accrual non-residential construction loans, residential construction loans, and land loans that were originated with pre-established interest ~~reserves, respectively.~~reserves. While we typically expect loans with interest reserves to be repaid in full according to the original contractual terms, some loans may require one or more extensions beyond the original maturity before full repayment. Typically, these extensions are required due to construction delays, delays in the sale or lease of the property, or some combination of these two factors.

Most of the Company’s business activities are with customers located in the high-density Asian-populated areas of Southern and Northern California; New York City, New York; Dallas and Houston, Texas; Seattle, Washington; Boston, Massachusetts; Chicago, Illinois; Edison, New Jersey; Rockville, Maryland; and Las Vegas, Nevada. The Company also has loan customers in Hong Kong. The Company has no specific industry concentration, and generally ~~its~~our loans ~~when secured,~~ are collateralized with real property or other pledged collateral of the borrowers. The Company generally expects loans to be paid off from the operating profits of the borrowers, refinancing by another lender, or through sale by the borrowers of the collateral. There were no loan concentrations to multiple borrowers in similar activities that exceeded 10% of total loans as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, or as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The federal banking regulatory agencies issued final guidance on December 6, 2006, regarding risk management practices for financial institutions with high or increasing concentrations of ~~CRE~~commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans on their balance sheets. The regulatory guidance reiterates the need for sound internal risk management practices for those institutions that have experienced rapid growth in CRE lending, have notable exposure to specific types of CRE, or are approaching or exceeding the supervisory criteria used to evaluate the CRE concentration risk, but the guidance is not to be construed as a limit for CRE exposure. The supervisory criteria are: (1) total reported loans for construction, land development, and other land represent 100% of the institution’s total risk-based capital, and (2) both total CRE loans represent 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital and the institution’s CRE loan portfolio has increased 50% or more within the last thirty-six months. ~~Total~~The Bank’s loans for construction, land development, and other land represented ~~34%~~31% of the Bank’s total risk-based capital as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~35% as of~~ December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Total CRE loans represented ~~276%~~291.5% of total risk-based capital as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~273%~~285% as of December 31, ~~2020 and~~2021 which were ~~below~~within the Bank’s internal limit ~~for CRE loans~~ of 400%, of total ~~capital at both dates.~~capital.

The Bank maintains the allowance for credit losses at a level that the ~~Bank~~Bank’s management considers appropriate to ~~absorb~~cover the estimated and known risks in the loan portfolio and off-balance sheet unfunded credit commitments. Allowance for credit losses is comprised of the allowance for loan losses and ~~the reserve~~ for off-balance sheet unfunded credit commitments. With this risk management objective, the Bank’s management has an established monitoring system that ~~it believes~~ is designed to identify individually evaluated and potential problem loans, and to permit periodic evaluation of impairment and the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses in a timely manner.

In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors has established a written credit policy that includes a credit review and control system that ~~the Board of Directors~~it believes should be effective in ensuring that the Bank maintains an appropriate allowance for credit losses. The Board of Directors provides oversight for the allowance evaluation process, including quarterly evaluations, and determines whether the allowance is appropriate to absorb losses in the credit portfolio. The determination of the amount of the allowance for credit losses and the provision for credit losses are based on management’s current judgment about the credit quality of the loan portfolio and take into consideration known relevant internal and external factors that affect collectability when determining the appropriate level for the allowance for credit losses. The nature of the process by which the Bank determines the appropriate allowance for credit losses requires the exercise of considerable judgment. Additions or reductions to the allowance for credit losses are made by charges or credits to the provision for credit losses. While management utilizes its business judgment based on the information available, the ultimate appropriateness of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the Bank’s control, including but not limited to the performance of the Bank’s loan portfolio, the economy and market conditions, changes in interest rates, and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications. Identified credit exposures that are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Recoveries of previously charged off amounts, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses. A weakening of the economy or other factors that adversely affect asset quality could result in an increase in the number of delinquencies, bankruptcies, or defaults, and a higher level of non-performing assets, net charge-offs, and provision for credit ~~losses in future periods.~~losses.

The allowance for loan losses was ~~$131.9~~$148.7 million and the allowance for off-balance sheet unfunded credit commitments was ~~$8.1~~$6.1 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, which represented the amount believed by management to be appropriate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including unfunded credit commitments. The allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses represented ~~0.83%~~0.87% of period-end gross loans and ~~180.7%~~248.3% of non-performing loans at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The comparable ratios were ~~1.06%~~0.88% of period-end gross loans and ~~229.18%~~212.9% of non-performing loans at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Our accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition. We identify critical policies and estimates as those that require management to make particularly difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because of the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. We have identified the policy and estimates ~~relate~~related to the allowance for credit losses on loans as a critical accounting policy.

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in Item ~~7. Management’s~~7 -Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K. For more information, please also see Note 23 to the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

The allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment is the combination of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded loan commitments. The allowance for loan losses is reported as a reduction of the amortized cost basis of loans, while the reserve for unfunded loan commitments is included within "Other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amortized cost basis of loans does not include interest receivable, which is included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The "Provision for credit losses" on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income is a combination of the provision for loan losses and the provision for unfunded loan commitments.

Under the CECL methodology, expected credit losses reflect losses over the remaining contractual life of an asset, considering the effect of prepayments and available information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about relevant historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future events and circumstances. Thus, the CECL methodology incorporates a broad range of information in developing credit loss estimates. For further information regarding the calculation of the allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment using the CECL methodology, ~~effective January 1, 2021,~~ see ~~Notes 2 and 3~~Note 9 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in "Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements."

In calculating our allowance for credit losses in the ~~third~~second quarter of ~~2021,~~2022, management included an additional reserve adjustment to reflect the ~~change in Moody��s~~time gap between the preparation of the June 2022 Moody’s forecast of future GDP, unemployment rates, CRE and home price indexes ~~resulted in a small increase in~~and the ~~allowance~~higher likelihood of an economic slowdown resulting for ~~credit losses.~~the impact of higher interest rates. Our methodology and framework along with the 8-quarter reasonable and supportable forecast period and the 4-quarter reversion period have remained consistent since the implementation of CECL on January 1, 2021. Certain management assumptions are reassessed every quarter based on current expectations for credit losses, while other assumptions are assessed and updated on at least an annual basis.

The use of different economic forecasts, whether based on different scenarios, the use of multiple or single scenarios, or updated economic forecasts and scenarios, can change the outcome of the calculations. In addition to the economic forecasts, there are numerous components and assumptions that are integral to the overall estimation of allowance for credit losses.

The determination of the allowance for credit losses is complex and dependent on numerous models, assumptions, and judgments made by management. Management's current expectation for credit losses as quantified in the allowance for credit losses, considers the impact of assumptions and is reflective of historical credit experience, economic forecasts viewed to be reasonable and supportable, current loan composition, and relative credit risks known as of the balance sheet date.

The Company’s CECL methodology utilizes an eight-quarter reasonable and supportable (“R&S”) forecast period, and a four-quarter reversion period. Management relies on multiple forecasts, blending them into a single loss estimate. Generally speaking, the blended scenario approach would include the Baseline, the Alternative Scenario 1 – Upside – 10th Percentile and the Alternative Scenario 3 – Downside – 90th Percentile forecasts. After the R&S period, the Company will revert straight-line for the four-quarter reversion period to the long-term loss rates for each of the six portfolios of loans. The contractual term excludes renewals and modifications but includes pre-approved extensions and prepayment assumptions where applicable.

Our allowance for credit losses is sensitive to a number of inputs, including macroeconomic forecast assumptions and credit rating migrations during the period. Our macroeconomic forecasts used in determining the June 30, 2022, allowance for credit losses consisted of three scenarios. The baseline scenario reflects ongoing GDP growth and falling unemployment in 2022, generally in line with market expectations, and consistent with waning COVID transmission and improved supply chains. The upside scenario reflects a faster recovery in consumer spending and stronger productivity growth in 2022 relative to the baseline scenario. The downside scenario contemplates a short recession due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine worsens significantly, worsening supply-chain disruptions, resurgent COVID infections that results in negative GDP growth, and rising unemployment beginning in the third quarter of 2022. We placed the most weight on our baseline scenario, with the remaining weighting split equally between the upside and downside scenarios.

Keeping all other factors constant, we estimate that if we had applied 100% weighting to the downside scenario, the allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2022, would have been approximately $32.0 million higher. This estimate is intended to reflect the sensitivity of the allowance for credit losses to changes in our scenario weights and is not intended to be indicative of future changes in the allowance for credit losses.

Management believes the allowance for credit losses is appropriate for the current expected credit losses in our loan portfolio and associated unfunded commitments, and the credit risk ratings and inherent loss rates currently assigned are reasonable and appropriate as of the reporting date. It is possible that others, given the same information, may at any point in time reach different conclusions that could result in a significant impact to the Company's financial statements.

The decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the allowance of $24.3 million from the adoption of ASU 2016-13. The $24.3 million decrease in allowance was primarily due to a change in methodology from the incurred loss model in 2020 to CECL based modeling in 2021. Under the CECL based modeling, the allowance is determined using actual loss experience, average life of loans, loan-to-collateral value among other factors, as compared to only historical loss experience used in incurred loss model.

The allowance allocated to commercial mortgage loans increased ~~$11.8~~$7.5 million, or ~~24.0%~~12.3%, to ~~$61.0~~$68.6 million at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, from ~~$49.2~~$61.1 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

During the second quarter of 2022, our deposits increased by $227.0 million, or 5.0% annualized.

The following table sets forth the maturity distribution of time deposits at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021:~~2022:

Borrowings include ~~federal~~securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal funds purchased, funds obtained as advances from the FHLB of San Francisco, and borrowings from other financial institutions.

Borrowings from the FHLB – There were no over-night borrowings from the FHLB as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. Advances from the FHLB were ~~$20.0~~$95.0 million at an average rate of 1.92% as of June 30, 2022, compared to $20 million at an average rate of 2.89% as of ~~September 30, 2021, compared to $150.0 million at an average rate of 2.15% as of~~ December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, final maturity for the FHLB advances ofis $20.0 million ~~will mature~~ in May ~~2023.~~2023 and $75.0 million in July 2022.

Junior Subordinated Notes – At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, Junior Subordinated Notes totaled $119.1 million with a weighted average interest rate of ~~2.36%~~4.1%, compared to $119.1 million with a weighted average rate of ~~2.40%~~2.38% at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The Junior Subordinated Notes have a stated maturity term of 30 years. The trusts are not consolidated with the Company in accordance with an accounting pronouncement that took effect in December 2003.

For additional information, see Note 11 to the Company’s unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the Company’s contractual obligations to make future payments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Payments for deposits and borrowings do not include interest. Payments related to leases are based on actual payments specified in the underlying contracts.

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions, which, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We ~~typically~~ enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Loan Commitments - We enter into contractual commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specified rates and for specific purposes. Substantially all of our commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of loan funding. We ~~seek to~~ minimize our exposure to loss under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. Management assesses the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit in determining the level of the allowance for credit losses.

Standby Letters of Credit - Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by us to secure the obligations of a customer to a third party. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of an agreement with the third party, we would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, we would be entitled to seek reimbursement from the customer. Our policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements.

Total equity was ~~$2.46~~$2.43 billion as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021, an increase~~2022, a decrease of ~~$45.1~~$14.7 million, from ~~$2.42~~$2.45 billion as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to net income of ~~$223.0~~$164.0 million, stock-based compensation of ~~$4.1~~$3.4 million, ~~and~~ proceeds from dividend reinvestment of ~~$2.6~~$1.9 million and stock issued to directors of $0.8 million, offset ~~in part,~~ by, other comprehensive loss of $68.3 million, purchases of treasury stock of ~~$100.7~~$63.5 million, common stock cash dividends of ~~$73.3~~$51.0 million and ~~a decrease in other comprehensive income~~shares withheld related to net share settlement of ~~$5.7~~RSUs of $2.0 million.

Holders of common stock are entitled to dividends as and when declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Although we have historically paid cash dividends on our common stock, we are not required to do so. We increased the common stock dividend from $0.24 per share in the fourth quarter of 2017, to $0.31 per share in the fourth quarter of 2018, to $0.34 per share in the fourth quarter of 2021. The amount of future dividends, if any, will depend on our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors, and will be determined by our Board of Directors. The terms of our Junior Subordinated Notes also limit our ability to pay dividends. ~~We increased the~~If we are not current in our payment of dividends on our Junior Subordinated Notes, we may not pay dividends on our common ~~stock dividend from $0.21 per share in the fourth quarter of 2016, to $0.24 per share in the fourth quarter of 2017, and to $0.31 per share in the fourth quarter of 2018.~~stock.

It is our policy not to speculate on the future direction of interest rates. However, from time to time, we may enter into financial derivatives in order to seek mitigation of exposure to interest rate risks related to our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We believe that these transactions, when properly structured and managed, may provide a hedge against inherent interest rate risk in our assets or liabilities and against risk in specific transactions. In such instances, we may enter into interest rate swap contracts or other types of financial derivatives. Prior to considering any hedging activities, we seek to analyze the costs and benefits of the hedge in comparison to other viable alternative strategies. All hedges must be approved by the Bank’s Investment Committee.

The Company follows ASC Topic 815 that establishes accounting and reporting standards for financial derivatives, including certain financial derivatives embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. It requires the recognition of all financial derivatives as assets or liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and measurement of those financial derivatives at fair value. The accounting treatment of changes in fair value is dependent upon whether or not a financial derivative is designated as a hedge and, if so, the type of hedge. Fair value is determined using third-party models with observable market data. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and are reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reflected in current earnings, together with changes in the fair value of the related hedged item if there is a highly effective correlation between changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and changes in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability that is intended to be hedged. If there is not a highly effective correlation between changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap and changes in the fair value of the underlying asset or liability that is intended to be hedged, then only the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company offers various interest rate derivative contracts to its customers. When derivative transactions are executed with its customers, the derivative contracts are offset by paired trades with third-party financial institutions including with ~~CCP.~~central counterparties (“CCP”). Certain derivative contracts entered with CCPs are settled-to-market daily to the extent the CCP’s rulebooks legally characterize the variation margin as settlement. Derivative contracts are intended to allow borrowers to lock in attractive intermediate and long-term fixed rate financing while not increasing the interest rate risk to the Company. These transactions are generally not linked to specific Company assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets or to forecasted transactions in a hedging relationship and, therefore, are economic hedges. The contracts are marked to market at each reporting period. The changes in fair values of the derivative contracts traded with third-party financial institutions are expected to be largely comparable to the changes in fair values of the derivative transactions executed with customers throughout the terms of these contracts, except for the credit valuation adjustment component. The Company records credit valuation adjustments on derivatives to properly reflect the variances of credit worthiness between the Company and the counterparties, considering the effects of enforceable master netting agreements and collateral arrangements.

In May 2014, Bancorp entered into interest rate swap contracts in the notional amount of $119.1 million for a period of ten years. The objective of these interest rate swap contracts, which were designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges, was to hedge the quarterly interest payments on Bancorp’s $119.1 million of Junior Subordinated Debentures that had been issued to five trusts, throughout the ten-year period beginning in June 2014 and ending in June 2024, from the risk of variability of these payments resulting from changes in the three-month LIBOR interest rate. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020,~~2021, the ineffective portion of these interest rate swaps was not significant.

The notional amount and net unrealized loss of the Company’s cash flow derivative financial instruments as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were as follows:

~~As of September 30, 2021, the Bank’s outstanding interest rate swap contracts had a notional amount of $779.4 million for various terms from three to ten years.~~ The Bank entered into ~~these~~ interest rate swap contracts that are matched to fixed-rate ~~CRE~~commercial real estate loans in the Bank’s loan portfolio. These contracts have been designated as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of the underlying ~~CRE~~commercial real estate loans due to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank’s outstanding interest rate swap contracts had a notional amount of $901.4 million for various terms from three to ten years. The swap contracts are structured so that the notional amounts reduce over time to match the contractual amortization of the underlying loan and allow prepayments with the same pre-payment penalty amounts as the related loan. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020,~~2021, the ineffective portion of these interest rate swaps was not significant. ~~The notional amount and net unrealized loss of the Company’s fair value derivative financial instruments as of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, were as follows:~~

The Company has designated as a partial-term hedging election ~~$404.7~~$670.8 million notional as last-of-layer hedge on pools of loans with a notational value of ~~$816.7 million~~$1.3 billion as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. The loans are not expected to be affected by prepayment, defaults, or other factors affecting the timing and amount of cash flows under the last-of-layer method. The Company has entered into these pay-fixed and receive 1-Month LIBOR interest rate swaps to convert the last-of-layer ~~$404.7~~$670.8 million portion of ~~$816.7 million~~$1.3 billion fixed rate loan pools in order to reduce the Company’s exposure to higher interest rates for the last-of-layer tranches. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the last-of-layer loan tranche had a fair value basis adjustment of ~~$943 thousand.~~$20.0 million. The interest rate swap converts this last-of-layer tranche into a floating rate instrument. The Company’s risk management objective with respect to this last-of-layer interest rate swap is to reduce interest rate exposure as to the last-of-layer tranche.

Interest rate swap contracts involve the risk of dealing with institutional derivative counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. Institutional counterparties must have a strong credit profile and be approved by our Board of Directors. The Company’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps is limited to the net favorable value and interest payments of all swaps by each counterparty. Credit exposure may be reduced by the amount of collateral pledged by the counterparty. Bancorp’s interest rate swaps have been assigned by the counterparties to a derivative clearing organization and daily margin is indirectly maintained with the derivative clearing organization. ~~Cash~~There was no cash collateral deposit posted ~~as collateral~~ by Bancorp related to derivative contracts ~~totaled $24.3 million~~ as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$11.9~~$5.9 million as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

From time to time, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts with various counterparties to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for foreign exchange certificates of deposit or foreign exchange contracts entered into with our clients. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of these contracts as well as the related foreign exchange certificates of deposit and foreign exchange contracts are recognized immediately in net income as a component of non-interest income. Period end gross positive fair values are recorded in other assets and gross negative fair values are recorded in other liabilities.

Liquidity is our ability to maintain sufficient cash flow to meet maturing financial obligations and customer credit needs, and to take advantage of investment opportunities as they are presented in the marketplace. Our principal sources of liquidity are growth in deposits, proceeds from the maturity or sale of securities and other financial instruments, repayments from securities and loans, ~~federal~~Federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and advances from the FHLB. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, our average monthly liquidity ratio (defined as net cash plus short-term and marketable securities to net deposits and short-term liabilities) was ~~18.1%~~13.6% compared to ~~14.7%~~17.3% as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The Bank is a shareholder of the FHLB, which enables the Bank to have access to lower-cost FHLB financing when necessary. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Bank had an approved credit line with the FHLB of San Francisco totaling ~~$4.8~~$5.2 billion. Total advances from the FHLB of San Francisco were ~~$20.0~~$95.0 million and standby ~~letter~~letters of ~~credits~~credit issued by the FHLB on the Company’s behalf were ~~$675.4~~$700.8 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. These borrowings bear fixed rates and are secured by the Bank’s loans. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Bank pledged ~~$820~~$694.3 thousand of its commercial loans and ~~$1.9~~$1.7 million of securities to the Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window under the Borrower-in-Custody program. The Bank had borrowing capacity of ~~$2.6~~$2.1 million from the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Liquidity can also be provided through the sale of liquid assets, which consist of federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and securities available-for-sale. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, investment securities totaled ~~$1.1~~$1.2 billion, with ~~$30.9~~$102.9 million pledged as collateral for borrowings and other commitments. The remaining ~~$1.0 billion~~balance was available as additional liquidity or to be pledged as collateral for additional borrowings.

Approximately ~~96%~~97.5% of our time deposits mature within one year or less as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Management anticipates that there may be some outflow of these deposits upon maturity due to the keen competition in the Bank’s marketplace. However, based on our historical runoff experience, we expect the outflow will not be significant and can be replenished through our normal growth in deposits. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, management believes all the above-mentioned sources will provide adequate liquidity during the next twelve months for the Bank to meet its operating needs. Deposits and other sources of liquidity, however, may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 ~~pandemic.~~pandemic and its related economic impacts.

The business activities of Bancorp consist primarily of the operation of the Bank and limited activities in other investments. The Bank paid dividends to Bancorp totaling ~~$155~~$130.0 million and ~~$96.0~~$90.0 million during the ~~first nine months~~second quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

We use a net interest income simulation model to measure the extent of the differences in the behavior of the lending and funding rates to changing interest rates, to project future earnings or market values under alternative interest rate scenarios. Interest rate risk arises primarily through the Company’s traditional business activities of extending loans and accepting deposits. Many factors, including but not limited to economic, market and financial conditions, movements in interest rates, and consumer preferences, affect the spread between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities. The net interest income simulation model is designed to measure the volatility of net interest income and net portfolio value, defined as net present value of assets and liabilities, under immediate rising or falling interest rate scenarios in 100 basis point increments.

Although the modeling can be helpful in managing interest rate risk, it does require significant assumptions for the projection of loan prepayment rates on mortgage related assets, loan volumes and pricing, and deposit and borrowing volume and pricing, that might prove inaccurate. Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income, or precisely predict the effect of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, the differences between actual experience and the assumed volume, changes in market conditions, and management strategies, among other factors. The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity and seeks to reduce the risk of a significant decrease in net interest income caused by a change in interest rates.

We have established a tolerance level in our policy to define and limit net interest income volatility to a change of plus or minus 5% when the hypothetical rate change is plus or minus 200 basis points. When the net interest rate simulation projects that our tolerance level will be met, or exceeded, we seek corrective action after considering, among other things, market conditions, customer reaction, and the estimated impact on profitability. The Company’s simulation model also projects the net economic value of our portfolio of assets and liabilities. We have established a tolerance level in our policy to limit the loss in the net economic value of our portfolio of assets and liabilities to zero when the hypothetical rate change is plus or minus 200 basis points.

The table below shows the estimated impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and market value of equity as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2021:~~2022:

	Net Interest		Market Value		Net Interest		Market Value
	Income		of Equity		Income		of Equity
Change in Interest Rate (Basis Points)	Volatility ⁽¹⁾		Volatility ⁽²⁾		Volatility ⁽¹⁾		Volatility ⁽²⁾
+200		18.2		14.5		13.7		8.4
+100		8.6		7.0		6.9		4.4
-100		-0.8		-3.7		-10.2		1.9
-200		-0.9		-1.7		-19.3		1.7

The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the ~~third~~second quarter of ~~2021~~2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

From time to time, Bancorp and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business or otherwise are incidental to various aspects of its operations. Based upon information available to the Company and its review of any such litigation with counsel, management presently believes that the liability relating to such litigation, if any, would not be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity taken as a whole. The outcome of litigation and other legal and regulatory matters is inherently uncertain, however, and it is possible that one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity taken as a whole.

The Company is not aware of any material change to the risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price. The risk factors disclosed in the ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those not presently known to the Company or that the Company presently believes not to be material, could also materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations and stock price.

For a discussion of limitations on the payment of dividends, see “Dividend Policy” and “Liquidity” under Part I—Item 2— “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

●	Special Mention – Borrower is fundamentally sound, and loan is currently protected but adverse trends are apparent that, if not corrected, may affect ability to repay. Primary source of loan repayment remains viable but there is increasing reliance on collateral or guarantor support.


●	Substandard – These loans are inadequately protected by current sound net worth, paying capacity, or collateral. Well-defined weaknesses exist that could jeopardize repayment of debt. Loss may not be imminent, but if weaknesses are not corrected, there is a good possibility of some loss.


●	Doubtful – The possibility of loss is extremely high, but due to identifiable and important pending events (which may strengthen the loan), a loss classification is deferred until the situation is better defined.


●	Loss – These loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that to continue to carry the loan as an active asset is no longer warranted.
