Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all footnotes as would be necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). However, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
The results of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2022.

The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and to general practices within the banking industry.

Use of Estimates

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Earnings Per Share ("EPS")
Basic earnings per common share represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Basic EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. In determining the weighted average number of shares outstanding, vested restricted stock units are included. Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding including common stock that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for the effect of dilutive potential common shares, such as restricted stock awards and units, calculated using the treasury stock method.

Adoption of New Financial Accounting Standards
FASB ASU 2016-13
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance to replace the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, held to maturity debt securities, and reinsurance receivables. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor. The transition will be applied as follows:
-    For debt securities with other than temporary impairment ("OTTI"), the guidance will be applied prospectively.
-    Existing purchased credit impaired ("PCI") assets will be grandfathered and classified as purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD") assets at the date of adoption. The assets will be grossed up for the allowance for expected credit losses for all PCD assets at the date of adoption and will continue to recognize the noncredit discount in interest income based on the yield of such assets as of the adoption date. Subsequent changes in expected credit losses will be recorded through the allowance.
-    For all other assets within the scope of CECL, a cumulative-effect adjustment will be recognized in retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.

These amendments are effective for PBEs that are SEC filers for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. As an emerging growth company, the Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2023. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective.
11

Table of Contents
Through JuneSeptember 30, 2022, CECL implementation activities have generally focused on capturing and validating loan data, segmenting the loan portfolio, evaluating credit loss methodologies and models, as well as evaluating model results and sensitivities.sensitivities and completing a third party model validation. In determining an expected allowance under CECL, the Company has selected a credit loss model that utilizes an approach focused on a loan's probability of default and loss given default. As part of the process to test and refine our CECL model, the Company has completed quarterly model runs for analysis and backtesting purposes starting with the third quarter of 2018. This process has been on-going and will continue until our adoption date. Continuing implementation activities include the completion of a third party model validation, refining qualitative factor adjustments, finalizing policies and disclosures and evaluating, documenting and testing internal controls. We estimate that the adoption of the CECL standard would not currently result in a material change in our allowance for credit losses, which, if necessary, will be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, net of tax as of January 1, 2023. The ultimate impact will depend on the portfolio and forecasts when the standard is adopted.

At December 31, 2021, the Company held 88 residential MBS and CMOs of which 14 were in a loss position and 4four had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The Company held 54 commercial MBS and CMOs of which 20 were in a loss position and 2two had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The Company held 3three other ABS of which 2two were in a loss position and none had been in a loss position for twelve months or more.
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments were caused by interest rate changes. In addition, the contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or agencies sponsored by the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at a price less than amortized cost. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates but not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer in an amount greater than 10% of stockholders' equity, other than the U.S. government and its agencies.

The unrecognized losses on the Company’s held to maturity investments at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 were caused by interest rate changes. In addition, the contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by agencies sponsored by the U.S. government.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities are shown by contractual maturity. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities if borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. As such, mortgage backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and other asset backed securities are not included in the maturity categories above and instead are shown separately. No securities were pledged as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

The Company assigns a risk rating to all loans and periodically performs detailed reviews of all loans to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. During these internal reviews, management monitors and analyzes the financial condition of borrowers and guarantors, as well as the financial performance and/or other characteristics of loan collateral. These credit quality indicators are used to assign a risk rating to each individual loan. The risk ratings can be grouped into six major categories, defined as follows:

Pass assets are those which are performing according to contract and have no existing or known weaknesses deserving of management’s close attention. The basic underwriting criteria used to approve the loans are still valid, and all payments have essentially been made as planned.

Watch assets are expected to have an event occurring in the near future that will lead to a change in risk rating with the change being either favorable or unfavorable. These assets require heightened monitoring of the event by management.

Special mention assets have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Substandard assets are inadequately protected by the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged. These assets have well-defined weaknesses: the primary source of repayment is gone or severely impaired (i.e., bankruptcy or loss of employment) and/or there has been a deterioration in collateral value. In addition, there is the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss, either directly or indirectly (i.e., the cost of monitoring), if the deficiencies are not corrected. A deterioration in collateral value alone does not mandate that an asset be adversely classified if such factor does not indicate that the primary source of repayment is in jeopardy.

Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of those classified substandard with the added characteristic
17

Table of Contents
that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable based on current facts, conditions and values.

Loss assets are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value; but rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off a basically worthless asset (or portion thereof) even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

The following table summarizes the loan portfolio allocated by management’s internal risk ratings at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Troubled debt restructurings:
Single family residential1$405 $412 
Terms of the modification above included suspension of loan payments for six months and a similar extension of the loan term. The TDR above resulted in no increase to the allowance for loan losses and no charge-offs primarily due to collateral support provided by the secondary source of repayment. There were no new TDRs during the three or sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021.
The Company had no TDRs with a subsequent payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three or sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

Interest income on non-accrual loans is subsequently recognized on a cash basis as long as the remaining unpaid principal amount of the loans are deemed to be fully collectible. If there is doubt regarding the collectability of the loan, then any interest payments received are applied to principal. Interest income was recognized on a cash basis on non-accrual loans during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 totaling $27$45 thousand and $54$99 thousand, respectively, compared to $36$8 thousand and $99$107 thousand during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. Contractual interest not recorded on nonperforming loans during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 totaled $17$6 thousand and $24$30 thousand, respectively, compared to $1$5 thousand and $16$21 thousand for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, respectively.

Generally, nonaccrual loans are considered impaired because the repayment of the loan will not be made in accordance with the original contractual agreement.
5.     MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and conducting foreclosure proceedings. Loan servicing income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes servicing fees from investors and certain charges collected from borrowers. Mortgage loans serviced for others are not reported as assets. The principal balances of these loans are as follows:

6.     LEASES
The Company leases various office premises under long-term operating lease agreements. These leases expire between 2023 and 2030, with certain leases containing five year renewal options. The Company includes lease extension options in the lease term if it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option, when considering the economic incentive to do so. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date. Lease expense for operating leases and short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases and prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2022, were not recognized on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition.
Upon adoption of the new lease standard on January 1, 2022, the Company recorded operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to discount lease payments when the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The Company's incremental borrowing rate is based on the FHLB advance rate based on the lease term and other factors. In addition, the Company has elected to account for any non-lease components in its leases as part of the associated lease component. The Company also has elected to not recognize short-term leases with an original term of 12 months or less on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition.

9.     JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES
The Company formed 2two wholly-owned trust companies (the ‘‘Trusts’’) which issued guaranteed preferred beneficial interests (the "Trust Securities") in the Company’s junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (the "Notes"). The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Trusts and therefore, the Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements, but rather the junior subordinated debentures are shown as a liability. The Company’s investment in the common securities of the Trusts, totaling $1.9 million, is included in other assets in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The sole asset of the Trusts are the Notes that they hold.
The Trusts have invested the proceeds of such Trust Securities in the Notes. Each of the Notes has an interest rate equal to the corresponding Trust Securities distribution rate. The Company has the right to defer payment of interest on the Notes at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding five years provided that no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the relevant Notes. During any such extension period, distributions on the Trust Securities will also be deferred, and the Company’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock will be restricted.
The Company has entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Securities; (ii) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Securities called for redemption by the Trusts; and (iii) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Trusts. The Trust Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the Notes, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the Notes purchased by the Trusts, in whole or in part, on or after the redemption date. As specified in the indenture, if the Notes are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest.
The following table is a summary of the outstanding Trust Securities and Notes at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company entered into threefive new swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $300.0$600.0 million. The other 2two swaps were entered into in February and June 2021. The swaps provide a hedge against the interest rate risk associated with both fixed rate loans and hybrid adjustable loans in their fixed rate period. Additionally, during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the Company also held 2two separate, two-year interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $1.0 billion. These swaps, which were in equal notional amounts of $500.0 million, matured in June and August 2021, and provided a hedge against the interest rate risk related to certain hybrid multifamily loans which were in their fixed rate period.

All outstanding swaps are designated as fair value hedges and involve the payment of a fixed rate amount to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving a variable rate payment over the life of the swaps without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. Any gain or loss on the derivatives, as well as any offsetting loss or gain on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income on loans.

The following table presents the effect of the Company’s interest rate swaps on the unaudited consolidated statements of income for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021:

12.     STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company’s stock based compensation consists of restricted stock awards ("RSAs") and restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted under the Luther Burbank Corporation Omnibus Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan ("Omnibus Plan"). In connection with its initial public offering ("IPO") in December 2017, the Company granted RSUs in exchange for unvested phantom stock awards related to a then discontinued employee benefit plan that awarded phantom stock to certain key executives and nonemployee directors. The RSUs were granted on a per share basis, with the same vesting schedule and deferral elections that existed for the original phantom stock awards. Post IPO, the Company typically grants RSAs to nonemployee directors and certain employees on an annual basis. RSA grants vest after one year for nonemployee directors and ratably over three to four years for employees.

All RSAs and RSUs are granted at the fair value of the common stock at the time of the award. RSAs and RSUs are considered fixed awards as the number of shares and fair value are known at the date of grant and the fair value at the grant date is amortized over the vesting and/or service period. Non-cash stock compensation expense recognized for RSAs for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 totaled $616$756 thousand and $1.3$2.1 million, respectively, compared with $651$645 thousand and $1.2$1.9 million for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, respectivelyrespectively. The fair value of RSAs andand/or RSUs that vested during the sixthree and nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 totaled $90 thousand and 2021 totaled $2.6$2.7 million, andrespectively, compared to $2.4 million respectively.for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. No RSAs or RSUs vested during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 or 2021.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $3.6$3.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of unrecognized compensation expense related to 411,592415,337 and 489,703 unvested RSAs, respectively,

Under its Omnibus Plan, the Company reserved 3,360,000 shares of common stock for new awards. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 1,692,5081,681,135 and 1,861,344 shares, respectively, of common stock reserved and available for grant through restricted stock or other awards under the Omnibus Plan. RSU awards were initially issued to replace unvested phantom stock awards under the Luther Burbank Corporation Phantom Stock Plan and were excluded from the shares reserved and available for grant under the Omnibus Plan. As of January 1, 2021, all RSUs were fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture.
13.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. Valuations within these levels are based upon:
Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets.
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use on pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include management judgment and estimation which may be significant.
Because broadly traded markets do not exist for most of the Company’s financial instruments, the fair value calculations attempt to incorporate the effect of current market conditions at a specific time. These determinations are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company.
Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period. Management evaluates
28

Table of Contents
the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of
28

Table of Contents
the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities, or total earnings.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:
For cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits and short-term borrowings, the carrying amount was estimated to be fair value. The fair value of accrued interest receivable/payable balances were determined using inputs and fair value measurements commensurate with the asset or liability from which the accrued interest is generated.
Fair values for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities, which include primarily debt securities issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies, were based on quoted market prices for similar securities.
Fair values for equity securities, which consist of investments in a qualified community reinvestment fund, were based on quoted market prices.
Loans were valued using the exit price notion. The fair value was estimated using market quotes for similar assets or the present value of future cash flows, discounted using a market rate for similar products and giving consideration to estimated prepayment risk and credit risk. The fair value of loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification.
Impaired loans were measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, the Company may measure impairment based on a loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral (net of estimated costs to sell) if the loan is collateral dependent. The fair value of impaired loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification.
It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a valuation model that utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed, and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income and that can be validated against available market data.
The fair values of derivatives were based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date.
Fair values for fixed-rate time deposits were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates offered at each reporting date by the Company for time deposits with similar remaining maturities. For deposits with no contractual maturity, the fair value was assumed to equal the carrying value.
The fair value of FHLB advances was estimated based on discounting the future cash flows using the market rate currently offered for similar terms.
The fair value of subordinated debentures was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker.
For senior debt, the fair value was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker.

Non-recurring Basis
The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value which was below cost at the reporting date.
At both JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and the Company held no other real estate owned.
14.     VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES ("VIE")
The Company is involved with VIEs through its loan securitization activities. The Company evaluated its association with VIEs for consolidation purposes. Specifically, a VIE is to be consolidated by its primary
31

Table of Contents
beneficiary, the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE, and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. A variable interest is a contractual, ownership or other interest whose value fluctuates with the changes in the value of the VIE's assets and liabilities. The assessment includes an evaluation of the Company's continuing involvement with the VIE and the nature and significance of its variable interests.

Table of Contents
Multifamily loan securitization
With respect to the securitization transaction with Freddie Mac which settled September 27, 2017, the Company's variable interests reside with a reimbursement agreement entered into with Freddie Mac that obligates the Company to reimburse Freddie Mac for defaulted contractual principal and interest payments identified after the ultimate resolution of any defaulted loans. Such reimbursement obligations are not to exceed 10% of the original principal amount of the loans comprising the securitization pool. As part of the securitization transaction, the Company released all servicing obligations and rights to Freddie Mac who was designated as the Master Servicer. As Master Servicer, Freddie Mac appointed the Company with sub-servicing obligations, which include obligations to collect and remit payments of principal and interest, manage payments of taxes and insurance, and otherwise administer the underlying loans. The servicing of defaulted loans and foreclosed loans was assigned to a separate third party entity, independent of the Company and Freddie Mac. Freddie Mac, in its capacity as Master Servicer, can terminate the Company in its role as sub-servicer and direct such responsibilities accordingly. In evaluating the variable interests and continuing involvement in the VIE, the Company determined that it does not have the power to make significant decisions or direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE's assets and liabilities. As sub-servicer of the loans, the Company does not have the authority to make significant decisions that influence the value of the VIE's net assets and therefore, is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Hence, the Company determined that the VIE associated with the multifamily securitization should not be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The Company believes its maximum exposure to loss as a result of involvement with the VIE associated with the securitization under the reimbursement agreement executed with Freddie Mac is 10% of the original principal amount of the loans comprising the securitization pool, or $62.6 million. The reserve for estimated losses with respect to the reimbursement obligation totaled $542$471 thousand and $727 thousand as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, based upon an analysis of quantitative and qualitative data of the underlying loans included in the securitization pool. No disbursements have been made in connection with the reimbursement obligation.
15.     LOAN SALE AND SECURITIZATION ACTIVITIES
The Company periodically sells loans as part of its business operations and overall management of liquidity, assets and liabilities, and financial performance. The transfer of loans is executed in securitization or sale transactions. With respect to sale transactions, the Company's continuing involvement may or may not include ongoing servicing responsibilities and general representations and warranties. With respect to securitization sales, the Company executed its first and only transaction to date on September 27, 2017 with Freddie Mac. The transaction involved the sale of $626.0 million in originated multifamily loans through a Freddie Mac sponsored transaction. The Company's continuing involvement includes sub-servicing responsibilities, general representations and warranties, and a limited reimbursement obligation.
As sub-servicer for Freddie Mac, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum net worth in accordance with GAAP of not less than $2.0 million. If the Bank's capital were to fall below this threshold, Freddie Mac would have the authority to terminate and assume the Bank’s sub-servicing duties. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Bank’s net worth was $814.9$820.4 million which equates to its Tier 1 capital of $832.9$848.9 million plus goodwill of $3.3 million and accumulated other comprehensive loss related to net unrealized losses on available for sale securities of $21.3$31.8 million.
General representations and warranties associated with loan sales and the securitization transaction require the Company to uphold various assertions that pertain to the underlying loans at the time of the transaction, including, but not limited to, compliance with relevant laws and regulations, absence of fraud, enforcement of liens, no environmental damages, and maintenance of relevant environmental insurance. Such representations and warranties are limited to those that do not meet the quality represented at the transaction date and do not pertain to a decline in value or future payment defaults. In circumstances

where the Company breaches its representations and warranties, the Company would generally be required to cure such instances through a repurchase or substitution of the subject loan(s).
With respect to the securitization transaction, the Company also has continuing involvement through a reimbursement agreement executed with Freddie Mac. To the extent the ultimate resolution of defaulted loans results in contractual principal and interest payments that are deficient, the Company is obligated to

reimburse Freddie Mac for such amounts, not to exceed 10% of the original principal amount of the loans comprising the securitization pool at the closing date of September 27, 2017.

16.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments represent commitments to originate fixed and variable rate loans and loans in process, and involve, to varying degrees, credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments to originate loans and lines of credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. As it relates to interest rate risk, the Company's exposure is generally limited to increases in interest rates that may result during the short period of time between the commitment and funding of fixed rate credit facilities and adjustable rate credit facilities with initial fixed rate periods. The limited timing risk associated with these credit facilities are considered within the Company's asset liability management process.
Commitments to fund loans and lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have expiration dates or other termination clauses. In addition, external market forces may impact the probability of commitments being exercised; therefore, total commitments outstanding do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
At JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had outstanding commitments of approximately $162.7$77.7 million and $132.8 million, respectively, for loans and lines of credit. Unfunded commitment reserves totaled $118$113 thousand and $153 thousand at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

or cash flows. In the ordinary course of operations, the Company may be party to various legal proceedings.

Correspondent Banking Agreements

The Company maintains funds on deposit with other federally insured financial institutions under correspondent banking agreements. Insured portions of these balances are limited to $250 thousand per institution based on FDIC insurance limits. At both JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $24.7 million and $25.5 million, respectively, in uninsured available cash balances. The Company also has established federal funds lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $50.0 million at both JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, none of which were advanced at those dates. The Company periodically monitors the financial condition and capital adequacy of these correspondent banks.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is a discussion of our financial condition at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022 and the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2022 (our “Annual Report”) and with the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 (this “Report”). Because we conduct all of our material business operations through our bank subsidiary, Luther Burbank Savings (the "Bank"), the discussion and analysis relates to activities primarily conducted by the Bank.
Overview
We are a bank holding company headquartered in Santa Rosa, California, and the parent company of Luther Burbank Savings, a California-chartered commercial bank headquartered in Gardena, California with $7.5$7.9 billion in assets at JuneSeptember 30, 2022. Our principal business is providing high-value, relationship-based banking products and services to our customers, which include real estate investors, professionals, entrepreneurs, depositors and commercial businesses. We generate most of our revenue from interest on loans and investments. Our primary source of funding for our loans is retail deposits and we place secondary reliance on wholesale funding, primarily borrowings from the FHLBFederal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and brokered deposits. Our largest expenses are interest on deposits and borrowings along with salaries and related employee benefits. Our principal lending products are real estate secured loans, consisting primarily of multifamily residential properties and jumbo single family residential properties on the West Coast.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with general practices within the financial services industry. Application of these principles requires management to make complex and subjective estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under current circumstances. These assumptions form the basis for our judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from independent, objective sources. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. Use of alternative assumptions may have resulted in significantly different estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Our most significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in our Annual Report. We have identified the following accounting policies and estimates that, due to the difficult, subjective or complex judgments and assumptions inherent in those policies and estimates and the potential sensitivity of our financial statements to those judgments and assumptions, are critical to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. We believe that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements are reasonable and appropriate.

Pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act"), as an emerging growth company, we can
36

Table of Contents
elect to opt out of the extended transition period for adopting any new or revised accounting standards. We have
36

Table of Contents
elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we may adopt the standard for the private company.

We have elected to take advantage of the scaled disclosures and other relief under the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of some or all of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements that will be available to us under the JOBS Act, so long as we qualify as an emerging growth company. Our eligibility as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act is expected to expire on December 31, 2022, which is the last day of the fiscal year following the five year anniversary from the date of our initial public offering.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is provided for probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the statement of financial condition date. The allowance is increased by a provision charged to expense and can be reduced by loan principal charge-offs, net of recoveries. The allowance can also be reduced by recapturing provisions when management determines that the allowance for loan losses is more than adequate to absorb the probable incurred credit losses in the portfolio. The allowance is based on management’s assessment of various factors including, but not limited to, the nature of the loan portfolio, previous loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the estimated value of underlying collateral, information that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, current economic conditions and the results of our ongoing reviews of the portfolio. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management.
While we use available information, including independent appraisals for collateral, to estimate the extent of probable incurred loan losses within the loan portfolio, inherent uncertainties in the estimation process make it reasonably possible that ultimate losses may vary significantly from our original estimates. In addition, we utilize a number of economic variables in estimating the allowance, with the most significant drivers being unemployment levels and housing prices. Material changes in these economic variables may result in incremental changes in the estimated level of our allowance. Generally, loans are partially or fully charged off when it is determined that the unpaid principal balance exceeds the current fair value of the collateral with no other likely source of repayment. The Company currently utilizes the incurred loss methodology to determine its allowance for loan losses. The Company expects to adopt the current expected credit loss ("CECL") allowance methodology on January 1, 2023. We estimate that the adoption of the CECL standard would not currently result in a material change in our allowance for credit losses, which, if necessary, will be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, net of tax as of January 1, 2023. The ultimate impact will depend on the portfolio and forecasts when the standard is adopted.
Fair Value Measurement

We use estimates of fair value in applying various accounting standards for our unaudited consolidated financial statements. Fair value is defined as the exit price at which an asset may be sold or a liability may be transferred in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. When available, fair value is measured by looking at observable market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market. When these are not available, other inputs are used to model fair value such as prices of similar instruments, yield curves, prepayment speeds and credit spreads. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices, different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The values presented may not represent future fair values and may not be realizable.

Changes in the fair value of debt securities available for sale are recorded in our consolidated statements of financial condition and comprehensive income (loss) while changes in the fair value of equity securities, loans held for sale and derivatives are recorded in the consolidated statements of financial condition and in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

Investment Securities Impairment

We assess on a quarterly basis whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security in which we have an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis. In any instance, we
37

Table of Contents
would consider many factors, including the severity and duration of the impairment, the portion of any unrealized
37

Table of Contents
loss attributable to a decline in the credit quality of the issuer, our intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value, recent events specific to the issuer or industry, and, for debt securities, external credit ratings and recent downgrades. Securities with respect to which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other-than-temporary are written down to fair value.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial measures discussed in Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation contain financial measures that are not measures recognized under GAAP and therefore, are considered non‐GAAP financial measures, including pre-tax, pre-provision net earnings, efficiency ratio, tangible assets, tangible stockholders' equity and tangible book value per share.

Our management uses these non‐GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance, financial condition and the efficiency of its operations. We believe that these non‐GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods and other companies, as well as demonstrate the effects of significant changes in the current period. We also believe that investors find these non‐GAAP financial measures useful as they assist investors in understanding our underlying operating performance and the analysis of ongoing operating trends. However, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. You should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use. Other banking companies may use names similar to those we use for the non-GAAP financial measures we disclose, but may calculate them differently. You should understand how we and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons.

The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and March 31,June 30, 2022

Overview

For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our net income was $22.6$21.0 million as compared to $22.9$22.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease of $1.6 million, or 6.9%, was attributable to an increase in

three months ended March 31, 2022. Thenoninterest expense of $2.1 million and a decrease in net interest income of $373 thousand, or 1.6%, was attributable to an increase$2.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $5.0 million, partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $2.4 million and a decrease in noninterest expense of $2.2$2.0 million. Pre-tax, pre-provision net earnings increaseddecreased by $4.9$4.1 million, or 16.7%12.0%, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 as compared to the linked quarter.
Net Interest Income

Net interest income increaseddecreased by $2.4$2.0 million, or 5.4%4.2%, to $47.5$45.5 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $45.0$47.5 million for the prior quarter due to higher loan interest income, partially offset by higher interest expense on our deposit portfolio and FHLB advances. The increase in loanadvances, partially offset by higher interest income was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans, lower accelerated loan cost amortization on paid off single family residential loans and higher income earned on our interest rate swaps. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to higher interest rates on deposits and an increase in the average balance and cost of FHLB advances. As compared to the linked quarter, the average balance and yield on our loan portfolio increased by $202.9 million and 9 basis points, respectively, while the average balance and cost of interest bearing deposits and FHLB advances increased by $56.8 million and 5 basis points, respectively, and $102.6 million and 3 basis points, respectively.investments.

Our net interest margin was 2.62%2.42% during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 compared to 2.54%2.62% during the prior quarter. Our net interest margin reflects the net impact of an increase in the yield oncost of interest earning assets partlybearing liabilities, partially offset by an increase in the yield on interest earning assets. Due to the liability sensitivity of our balance sheet, our interest-bearing liabilities generally reprice more quickly than our interest-earning assets, which will result in lower net interest income during periods of rising interest rates. During the third quarter, the cost of our interest bearing liabilities. Duringliabilities increased by 49 basis points primarily due to an increase in the second quarter,cost of our deposits and FHLB advances, while the yield on our interest earning assets increased by 1525 basis points primarily due to thean increase in our loan yield, while the cost of our interest bearing liabilities increased by 7 basis points primarily due to the increase in deposit costs.and investment yields. Our net interest spread in the secondthird quarter was 2.54%2.30%, increasingdecreasing by 824 basis points as compared to the linked quarter.

Interest rates and operating interest differential. Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in average interest rates. The following table shows the effect that these factors had on the interest earned from our interest-earning assets and interest incurred on our interest-bearing liabilities during the periods indicated. The effect of changes in volume is determined by multiplying the change in volume by the prior period’s average rate. The effect of rate changes is calculated by multiplying the change in average rate by the prior period’s volume. The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the changes in each.

Total interest income increased by $4.0$7.1 million, or 7.1%11.8%, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 as compared to the prior quarter. This increase was primarily due to a $3.3$5.5 million improvement in interest income earned on loans caused byresulting from a $202.9$254.8 million and 920 basis point increase in the average balance and yield on our loans, respectively. The increase in loan volumes resulted from strong loan originations and the slowing of loan prepayment speeds, while loan yield wasincreases were primarily due to lower accelerated loan cost amortization on paid off single family residential ("SFR") loans and higher income earned on anour interest rate swap hedging fixedswaps and the origination of loans at higher current rates relative to the existing coupon on our loan portfolio. Additionally, interest income on investments increased $1.3 million primarily due an increase in the average yield on investments of 67 basis points due to rising interest rates. At September 30, 2022, 43% of our investments were in their floating rate SFR loans.

period and had a weighted average repricing frequency of 2.9 months.
The volume of new loan originations totaled $733.0$530.1 million and $568.9$733.0 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and March 31,June 30, 2022, respectively. The weighted average rate on new loans for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was 3.55%4.65% as compared to 3.14%3.55% for the linked quarter. The increase in the average coupon on originations was primarily due to the rising interest rate environment. Loan prepayment speeds were 24.0%15.4% and 26.2%24.0% during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and March 31,June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in prepayment speeds was due to a slowing of SFR prepayments due to rising market interest rates. This decline was partially offset by income property loan ("IPL") prepayment speedsrates, which remained elevated relative to historical levels. Approximately 45% of our prepaid IPL loans during the current quarter were in-house refinances that were in the pipeline at March 31, 2022 and rate locked at low interest rates. These in-house refinances were the primary driver of the higher IPL prepayment speedsimpacted refinancing activity during the current quarter. The weighted average rate on loan payoffs/curtailments during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was 3.86%3.91% as compared to 3.70%3.86% for the prior quarter.
Total interest expense increased $1.5$9.1 million, or 14.0%72.5%, to $12.5$21.6 million, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $11.0$12.5 million for the prior quarter. Interest expense on deposits increased $893 thousand,$7.2 million, to $6.9$14.1 million, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $6.0$6.9 million for the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to a 550 basis point increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits predominantly due to an increaserate increases in rates offered on our deposit products driven by rising market interest rates.both retail and brokered deposits. Additionally, interest expense on FHLB advances increased $531 thousand$1.7 million compared to the prior quarter due to an increase in the average balance and cost of advances of $102.6$207.6 million and 330 basis points, respectively. We generally use both deposits and FHLB advances to fund net loan growth. We also use long-term FHLB advances as a hedge of interest rate risk, as we can strategically control the duration of those funds. A discussion of instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk can be found under Part II - Item 7A. ‘‘Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.’’

Provision for Loan Losses

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022, the Company recorded loan loss provisions of $500 thousand and $2.5 million, comparedrespectively. The current quarter provision was primarily related to a reversal of loan loss provisions of $2.5 million duringgrowth while the three months ended March 31, 2022. The currentprior quarter provision was related to loan growth and an increase in classified loan balances while the prior quarter reversal related to the remaining portion of qualitative reserves established early in the pandemic that were deemed unnecessary.balances. Our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.54%0.53% at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 compared to 0.52%0.54% and 0.56% at March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The allowance for loan losses and the provisions for loan losses recognized were determined based on the incurred loss methodology. The Company expects to adopt the CECL allowance methodology on January 1, 2023.
Nonperforming assets totaled $5.0$3.8 million, or 0.07%0.05% of total assets, at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 compared to $2.3 million, or 0.03% of total assets, at December 31, 2021.

Classified loans, which includes loans graded Substandard and of greater risk, totaled $22.5$20.7 million and $12.1 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in criticized and classified loan balances was primarily attributed to isolated credit related downgrades of several multifamily residentialloans and are not thought to represent any particular declining credit trends in our loan portfolio. As compared to the linked quarter, classified loans decreased by $1.8 million, declining as a result of the payoff of two adversely graded loans during the six months ended June 30, 2022.current quarter.

Total interest income increased by $3.6$12.6 million, or 3.2%7.4%, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 as compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to growth in the average balance of loans of $195.2 million during the period, as well as an 8 basis point increase in loan yields. The average balance of loans benefited from strong loan origination volumes and a $2.3 million improvement in interest income earned on loans resulting predominantly fromgradual slowing of prepayment speeds as compared to the same period last year, while loan yields improved as a $7.1result of a $10.7 million improvement in the earnings on our swaps, partially offset by the prepayment of higher yielding loans, which, prior to this quarter, were generally being replaced by loans at lower interest rates. Additionally, interest income on investments increased $1.1$3.0 million primarily due to a 3058 basis increase in yield compared to the same period last year due to rising market interest rates. As discussed above, at September 30, 2022, 43% of our investments were in their floating rate period and had a weighted average repricing frequency of 2.9 months.
The volume of new loans originated totaled $1.3$1.8 billion and $1.1$1.6 billion for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on new loans for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was 3.37%3.74% as compared to 3.34% for the same period last year. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we purchased a pool of single family loans, which was a strategic response to continued elevated loan prepayments. This purchase is excluded from the total volume of new loans originated discussed above. Loan prepayment speeds were 25.1%22.0% and 26.5%27.1% during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in prepayment speeds was due to rising market interest rates, which impacted refinancing activity during the current year to date period. The weighted average rate on loan payoffs/curtailments during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was 3.78%3.81% as compared to 4.00%3.95% for the same period last year.
Total interest expense decreased $9.3 million,$688 thousand, or 28.4%1.5%, to $23.5$45.0 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $32.8$45.7 million for the same period last year. Interest expense on deposits decreased $8.4$1.9 million primarily due to the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreasing 346 basis points. The decrease in our cost of interest-bearing deposits during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period last year was predominantly due to the maturity of time deposits during the secondlatter half of 2021 that repriced to lower interest rates at that time and, to a lesser extent, a $731.9$598.6 million decrease in the average balance of time deposits, which, prior to this quarter, were generally replaced with other lower cost deposit products.

Provision for Loan Losses

For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we recorded no$500 thousand in loan loss provisions on a net basis, as compared to recording a reversal of loan loss provisions of $5.0$9.0 million for the same period last year. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, loan loss provisions recorded in the second quarterand third quarters were primarily due to loan growth and an increaseincremental changes in classified loan balances. These loan loss provisions were entirelypartially offset by a reversal of loan loss provisions recorded in the first quarter related to the remaining portion of qualitative reserves for uncertain economic risks established early in the pandemic that were deemed unnecessary. The loan loss provisions reversedrecaptured during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 were predominantly due to the reversal of a portion of our pandemic related qualitative reserves, as well as an improvement in the level of our criticized loans during that period.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income decreased by $399$561 thousand, or 48.7%44.9%, to $420$689 thousand for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $819 thousand$1.3 million for the same period last year.

This decrease was partially offset bydeposit gathering efforts and a $649$810 thousand increase in other expenses primarily related to an increase in down payment assistance costs associated with our program to support home ownership for low-to-moderate income borrowers, as well asborrowers. These increased costs were partially offset by a $456 thousand$2.5 million decline in compensation costs primarily due to a decline in the required accrual for post-employment related retirement benefits resulting from an increase in marketinginterest rates and an increase in capitalized salaries related to increased loan production volumes, partially offset by increases in general compensation costs attributedcompared to deposit gathering efforts.the same period last year.
Income Tax Expense

For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $18.6$27.4 million as compared to $16.5$26.7 million for the same period last year with effective tax rates of 29.0%29.2% and 29.4%29.3%, respectively. Compared to the same period last year, the increase in income tax expense was primarily due to our higher pre-tax earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Financial Condition - As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021

Total assets at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 were $7.5$7.9 billion, an increase of $350.6$741.6 million, or 4.9%10.3%, from December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $340.4$557.0 million increase in loans and a $44.6$118.2 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $51.9 million decline in cash and cash equivalents as compared to December 31, 2021.

The increase in total liabilities was primarily attributable to a $203.3$450.0 million increase in FHLB advances and growth of $130.5$256.1 million in our deposits.
Loan Portfolio Composition

Our loan portfolio is our largest class of earning assets and typically provides higher yields than other types of earning assets. Associated with the higher yields is an inherent amount of credit risk which we attempt to mitigate with strong underwriting. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our total loans amounted to $6.6$6.9 billion and $6.3 billion, respectively. The following table presents the balance and associated percentage of each major product type within our portfolio as of the dates indicated.

The relative composition of the loan portfolio has not changed significantly over the past several years. Our primary focus remains multifamily real estate lending, which constituted 66% and 67% of our portfolio at both JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.2021, respectively. Single family residential lending is our secondary lending emphasis and represented 31% and 30% of our portfolio at both JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.2021, respectively.

We recognize that our multifamily and single family residential loan products represent concentrations within our balance sheet. Multifamily loan balances as a percentage of risk-based capital were 560%562% and 551% as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Our single family loans as a percentage of risk-based capital were 255%269% and 246% as of the same dates. Additionally, our loans are geographically concentrated with borrowers and collateral properties on the West Coast. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022, 62%61%, 27% and 9% of our real estate loans were collateralized by properties in southern California counties, northern California counties and Washington, respectively, compared to 63%, 26% and 9%, respectively, at December 31, 2021.

Our lending strategy has been to focus on products and markets where we have significant expertise. Given our concentrations, we have established strong risk management practices including risk-based lending standards, self-established product and geographical limits, annual cash flow evaluations of income property loans and semi-annual stress testing.

Multifamily residential loans. We provide multifamily residential loans for the purchase or refinance of apartment buildings of five units or more, with the financed properties serving as collateral for the loan. Our multifamily lending is built around three core principles: market selection, deal selection and sponsor selection. We focus on markets with a high barrier to entry for new development, where there is a limited supply of new housing and where there is a high variance between the cost to rent and the cost to own. We typically lend on stabilized and seasoned assets and focus on older, smaller properties with rents at or below market levels, catering to low and middle income renters. Our customers are generally experienced real estate professionals who desire regular income/cash flow streams and are focused on building wealth steadily over time. We have instituted strong lending policies to mitigate credit and concentration risk. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our multifamily real estate portfolio had an average loan balance of $1.7 million, an average unit count of 13.813.7 units, a weighted average loan to value of 57.1%57.0% and a weighted average debt service coverage ratio of 1.5 times, as compared to an average loan balance of $1.6 million, an average unit count of 14.0 units, a weighted average loan to value of 56.9% and a weighted average debt service coverage ratio of 1.5 times at December 31, 2021.

Single family residential loans. We provide permanent financing on single family residential properties primarily located in our market areas, which are both owner-occupied and investor owned. We conduct this business primarily through a network of third party mortgage brokers with the intention of retaining these loans in our portfolio. The majority of our originations are for purchase transactions, but we also provide loans to refinance single family properties. Our underwriting criteria focuses on debt ratios, credit scores, liquidity of the borrower and the borrower’s cash reserves. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our single family residential real estate portfolio had an average loan balance of $882$903 thousand, a weighted average loan to value of 63.3%63.8% and a weighted average credit score at origination/refreshed of 761.759. At December 31, 2021, our single family residential real estate portfolio had an average loan balance of $859 thousand, a weighted average loan to value of 62.5% and a weighted average credit score at origination/refreshed of 759.

Our fixed interest rate loans generally consist of 30 and 40-year loans that are primarily secured by single family residential properties, often in conjunction with our efforts to provide affordable housing financing to low-to-moderate income individuals. Our floating and adjustable rate loans are largely hybrid interest rate programs that provide an initial fixed term of three to ten years and then convert to quarterly or semi-annual repricing adjustments thereafter. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $5.1$4.9 billion and $4.8 billion, respectively, of our floating or hybrid adjustable rate loans were at their floor rates. The weighted average minimum interest rate on loans at their floor rates was 3.64%3.67% and 3.75% at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Hybrid adjustable rate loans still within their initial fixed term totaled $5.5$5.6 billion and $5.1 billion at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These loans had a weighted average term to first repricing date of 3.8 years and 3.6 years at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Asset Quality
Our primary objective is to maintain a high level of asset quality in our loan portfolio. We believe our underwriting practices and policies, established by experienced professionals, appropriately govern the risk profile for our loan portfolio. These policies are continually evaluated and updated as necessary. All loans are assessed and assigned a risk classification at origination based on underlying characteristics of the transaction such as collateral type, collateral cash flow, collateral coverage and borrower strength. We believe that we have a comprehensive methodology to proactively monitor our credit quality after origination. Particular emphasis is placed on our commercial portfolio where risk assessments are re-evaluated as a result of reviewing commercial property

operating statements and borrower financials on at least an annual basis. Single family residential loans are subject to an annual regrading based upon a credit score refresh, among other factors. On an ongoing basis, we also monitor payment performance, delinquencies, and tax and property insurance compliance, as well as any other pertinent information that may be available to determine the collectability of a loan. We believe our practices facilitate the early detection and remediation of problems within our loan portfolio. Assigned risk ratings, as well as the evaluation of other credit metrics, are an integral part of management assessing the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses. We periodically employ the use of an outside independent consulting firm to evaluate our underwriting and risk assessment processes. Like other financial institutions, we are subject to the risk that our loan portfolio will be exposed to increasing pressures from deteriorating borrower credit due to general economic conditions.
Nonperforming assets. Our nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and foreclosed real estate, if any. It is our policy to place a loan on non-accrual status in the event that the borrower is 90 days or more delinquent, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection, or earlier if the timely collection of contractual payments appears doubtful. Cash payments subsequently received on non-accrual loans are recognized as income only where the future collection of the remaining principal is considered by management to be probable. Loans are restored to accrual status only when the loan is less than 90 days delinquent and not in foreclosure, and the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments of principal and interest.
Troubled debt restructurings. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered TDRs. Concessions could include reductions of interest rates, extension of the maturity date at a rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk, reduction of accrued interest, principal forgiveness, forbearance, or other material modifications. The assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing or will likely experience financial difficulty and whether a concession has been granted is highly subjective in nature, and management’s judgment is required when determining whether a modification is classified as a TDR.

Allowance for loan losses. Our allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management believes is adequate to account for probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio as of the reporting date. We determine the allowance based on a quarterly evaluation of risk. That evaluation gives consideration to the nature of the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, current economic and environmental conditions and risk assessments assigned to each loan as a result of our ongoing reviews of the loan portfolio. This process involves a considerable degree of judgment and subjectivity. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management.
Our allowance is established through charges to the provision for loan losses. Loans, or portions of loans, deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. Recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to our allowance for loan losses. The allowance is decreased by the reversal of prior provisions when the total allowance balance is deemed excessive for the risks inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses balance is neither indicative of the specific amounts of future charge-offs that may occur, nor is it an indicator of any future loss trends.

Investment Portfolio

Our investment portfolio is generally comprised of government agency securities which are high-quality liquid investments under Basel III. The portfolio is primarily maintained to serve as a contingent, on-balance sheet source of liquidity and as such, is kept unencumbered. We manage our investment portfolio according to written investment policies approved by our board of directors. Our investment strategy aims to maximize earnings while maintaining liquidity in securities with minimal credit risk and interest rate risk which is reflective in the yields obtained on those securities. Most of our securities are classified as available for sale, although we occasionally purchase long-term

Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets

Prepaid expenses and other assets totaled $121.3 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $56.3 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $65.1 million, or 115.6%. This increase was primarily due to a $24.3 million increase in the fair value of our swaps due to rising interest rates, an additional $17.6 million investment in CRA qualified activities, a $13.0 million increase in deferred tax assets related to the decline in the fair value of available for sale investment securities and the recording of right-of-use assets related to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard on January 1, 2022, currently totaling $12.8 million. The new lease standard requires lessees to record a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all long-term lease obligations.

Deposits

Representing 82.6%80.0% of our total liabilities as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, deposits are our primary source of funding for our business operations. We have historically maintained and grown our deposit customer base in various rate environments based on our strong customer relationships, evidenced in part by increased deposits over recent years, as well as our reputation as a safe, sound, secure and "well-capitalized" institution and our commitment to excellent customer service. We are focused on growing our deposits by deepening our relationships with our existing loan and deposit customers and looking to expand our traditional product footprint with newer emphasis placed on specialty/business affiliations and transaction accounts. When competitively priced and/or for asset liability management purposes, we will supplement our deposits with wholesale deposits.

Total deposits increased by $130.5$256.1 million, or 2.4%4.6%, to $5.7$5.8 billion at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 from $5.5 billion at December 31, 2021. Brokered anddeposits increased $314.7 million, while retail deposits increased $97.3declined $58.6 million, and $33.2 million, respectively, during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022. The increase in brokered deposits was generally utilized to support loan growth. AsDuring the current quarter, as a result of June 30, 2022,the rising interest rate environment, we saw a change in customer preferences related to term deposits. Consequently, the proportion of non-maturity deposits within the portfolio increaseddecreased to 60.5%54.9% compared to 57.8% at December 31, 2021, while our portfolio of time deposits decreasedincreased to 39.5%45.1% from 42.2%, respectively. The change in the composition of our deposit portfolio was attributed to a combination of consumer preferences to maintain flexibility in the current changing interest rate environment, as well as our strategic goal of increasing transaction accounts. at December 31, 2021. Our cost of interest bearing deposits was 0.50%1.00% and 0.45%0.50% during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, respectively, and 0.48%0.66% and 0.82%0.72% during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The decrease during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 compared to the same period last year was predominantly due to the maturity of time deposits during the second half of 2021 that repriced to lower interest rates at that time and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in the average balance of time deposits, which were generally replaced with other lower cost deposit products.

Our loan to deposit ratio was 117%118% and 114% at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. It is common for us to operate with a loan to deposit ratio exceeding those commonly seen at other banks. Our higher than average ratio is attributed to our use of FHLB borrowings to supplement loan growth and to strategically manage our interest rate risk, as well as our preference to maintain a large proportion of our assets in real estate loans which generally provide a better yield than high-quality liquid investments.

FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings

In addition to deposits, we utilize collateralized FHLB borrowings to fund our asset growth. FHLB advances can, at times, have attractive rates and we have commonly used them to strategically extend the duration of our liabilities as part of our interest rate risk management.management efforts to reduce the liability sensitive position of our balance sheet. Total FHLB advances totaled $954.9 million$1.2 billion and $751.6 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of the same dates, the Bank had a FHLB letter of credit outstanding totaling $62.6 million. The increase in FHLB advances was primarily utilized to fund loan growth during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Historically, we have utilized other instruments such as trust preferred securities and senior debt at the bank holding company level as a source of capital for our Bank to support asset growth. We have established two trusts (the "Trusts") of which we own all the common securities, that have issued trust preferred securities, ("Trust Securities"), to investors in private placement transactions. The proceeds of the securities qualify as Tier 1 capital under the applicable regulations for community banks with total assets less than $15 billion. In accordance with GAAP, the

We have the right to defer payment of interest on the Notes at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding five years provided that no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the relevant Note. During any such extension period, distributions on the Trust Securities will also be deferred, and our ability to pay dividends on our common stock will be restricted.

We have entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Securities; (ii) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Securities called for redemption by the Trusts; and (iii) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Trusts. The Trust Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the Notes, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. We have the right to redeem the Notes purchased by the Trusts, in whole or in part, on or after the redemption date. As specified in the indenture, if the Notes are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest.

In 2014, we issued senior debt totaling $95.0 million to qualified institutional investors. These senior notes are unsecured, carry a fixed interest coupon of 6.5%, pay interest only on a quarterly basis and mature on September 30, 2024. The senior debt is redeemable at any time prior to August 31, 2024, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the calculated rate for a U. S. Treasury security having a comparable remaining maturity, plus 30 basis points, plus in each case, accrued and unpaid interest. On or after September 1, 2024, the senior debt may be redeemed at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity totaled $671.6$676.7 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2022, an increase of $2.5$7.5 million, or 0.4%1.1%, compared to December 31, 2021. The increase in stockholders' equity was primarily due to net income of $45.5$66.5 million, partially offset by a decline in the fair value of available for sale investment securities, net of tax, of $21.4$31.9 million, dividends paid of $12.4$18.5 million and stock repurchases of $9.7 million during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 732 thousand of its shares at an average

The plan was completed during the current quarter.second quarter of 2022. Throughout the term of the plan, the Company repurchased a total of 1.6 million shares at an average price of $12.17.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions that are not included in our consolidated statements of financial condition in accordance with GAAP. These transactions include commitments to extend credit in the ordinary course of business including commitments to fund new loans and undisbursed funds, as well as certain guarantees and derivative transactions.

Loan commitments represent contractual cash requirements to a borrower although, a portion of these commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts, shown below, do not necessarily represent future cash obligations. The following is a summary of our off-balance sheet arrangements outstanding as of the dates presented.

In connection with our Freddie Mac multifamily loan securitization, we entered into a reimbursement agreement pursuant to which we may be required to reimburse Freddie Mac for the first losses in the underlying loan portfolio, not to exceed 10% of the unpaid principal amount at settlement, or approximately $62.6 million. A $62.6 million letter of credit with the FHLB is pledged as collateral in connection with this reimbursement agreement. We have recorded a reserve for estimated losses with respect to the reimbursement obligation of $542$471 thousand and $727 thousand at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses in the consolidated statements of financial condition.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company entered into three new interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $300 million. The swaps provide a hedge against the interest rate risk associated with hybrid adjustable loans in their fixed rate period. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company held swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $950 million.$1.3 billion. Our swaps involve the payment of a fixed rate amount to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving a variable rate payment over the life of the swaps without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. As of September 30, 2022, these swaps carried a weighted average fixed rate payment of 1.54%, while receiving a federal funds weighted average rate of 3.08%. The net hedging impact associated with our swaps is reported in interest income on loans.

We guarantee distributions and payments for redemption or liquidation of the Trust Securities issued by the Trusts to the extent of funds held by the Trusts. Although this guarantee is not separately recorded, the obligation underlying the guarantee is fully reflected on our consolidated statements of financial condition as junior subordinated debentures held by the Trusts. The junior subordinated debentures currently qualify as Tier 1 capital under the Federal Reserve capital adequacy guidelines. With the exception of our obligations in connection with its Trust Securities and the other items detailed above, we have no other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources, that are material to investors.

Contractual Obligations

We believe that we will be able to meet our contractual obligations as they come due. Adequate cash levels are expected through profitability, repayments from loans and securities, deposit gathering activity, access to borrowing sources and periodic loan sales.
Liquidity Management and Capital Adequacy

Liquidity Management

Liquidity refers to our capacity to meet our cash obligations at a reasonable cost. Our cash obligations require us to have cash flow that is adequate to fund loan growth and maintain on-balance sheet liquidity while meeting present and future obligations of deposit withdrawals, borrowing maturities and other contractual cash obligations. In managing our cash flows, management regularly confronts situations that can give rise to increased liquidity risk. These include funding mismatches, market constraints in accessing sources of funds and the ability to convert assets into cash. Changes in economic conditions or exposure to credit, market, operational, legal and reputational risks also could affect the Company’s liquidity risk profile and are considered in the assessment of liquidity management.

We continually monitor our liquidity position to ensure that our assets and liabilities are managed in a manner to meet all reasonably foreseeable short-term, long-term and strategic liquidity demands. Management has established a comprehensive management process for identifying, measuring, monitoring and controlling liquidity risk. Because of its critical importance to the viability of the Company, liquidity risk management is fully integrated into our risk management processes. Critical elements of our liquidity risk management include: effective corporate governance consisting of oversight by the board of directors and active involvement by management; appropriate strategies, policies, procedures, and limits used to manage and mitigate liquidity risk; comprehensive liquidity risk measurement and monitoring systems including stress tests that are commensurate with the complexity of our business activities; active management of intraday liquidity and collateral; an appropriately diverse mix of existing and potential future funding sources; adequate levels of highly liquid marketable securities free of legal, regulatory, or operational impediments, that can be used to meet liquidity needs in stressful situations; comprehensive contingency funding plans that sufficiently address potential adverse liquidity events and emergency cash flow requirements; and internal controls and internal audit processes sufficient to determine the adequacy of the Company’s liquidity risk management process.

Our liquidity position is supported by management of our liquid assets and liabilities and access to alternative sources of funds. Our liquidity requirements are met primarily through our deposits, FHLB advances and the principal and interest payments we receive on loans and investment securities. Cash on hand, unrestricted cash at third party banks, investments available for sale and maturing or prepaying balances in our investment and loan portfolios are our most liquid assets. Other sources of liquidity that are routinely available to us include funds from retail and wholesale deposits, advances from the FHLB and proceeds from the sale of loans. Less commonly used

sources of funding include borrowings from the FRB discount window, draws on established federal funds lines from unaffiliated commercial banks and the issuance of debt or equity securities. We believe we have ample liquidity

resources to fund future growth and meet other cash needs as necessary.

Our total deposits at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $5.7$5.8 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively. Based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, our $954.9 million$1.2 billion of FHLB advances outstanding and our $62.6 million FHLB letter of credit outstanding, we had $897.8$787.2 million of additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB at JuneSeptember 30, 2022. Based on the values of other loans pledged as collateral, we had $202.9$186.0 million of borrowing capacity with the FRB at JuneSeptember 30, 2022. There were no outstanding advances with the FRB at JuneSeptember 30, 2022. In addition to the liquidity provided by the FHLB and FRB described above, we have established federal funds lines of credit with unaffiliated banks totaling $50.0 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2022, none of which were advanced at that date. In the ordinary course of business, we maintain correspondent bank accounts with unaffiliated banks which are used for normal business activity including ordering cash for our branch network, the purchase of investment securities and the receipt of principal and interest on those investments. Available cash balances at correspondent banks, including amounts at the FRB, totaled $86.5$256.7 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2022.

The Company is a corporation separate and apart from our Bank and, therefore, must provide for its own liquidity, including liquidity required to meet its debt service requirements on its senior notes and junior subordinated debentures. The Company’s main source of cash flow is dividends declared and paid to it by the Bank. There are statutory and regulatory limitations that affect the ability of our Bank to pay dividends to the Company. We believe that these limitations will not impact our ability to meet our ongoing short-term cash obligations. For contingency purposes, the Company typically maintains a minimum level of cash to fund one year’s projected operating cash flow needs.

Capital Adequacy

We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking regulators. Our capital management consists of providing equity to support our current operations and future growth. Failure to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements may result in mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all applicable regulatory capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, and the Bank qualified as ‘‘well-capitalized’’ for purposes of the FDIC’s prompt corrective action regulations. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the capital conservation buffer was 2.50%.

The vast majority of our multifamily residential loans and single family residential loans are currently eligible for 50% risk-weighting for purposes of calculating our regulatory capital levels. Risk-weighting requirements of multifamily residential loans and single family residential loans are contingent upon meeting specific criteria, which, if not adequately met, would increase the required risk-weighting percentage for these loans. Commercial real estate lending collateralized by real estate other than multifamily residential properties are generally risk weighted at 100%. Our leverage ratio is not impacted by the composition of our assets.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods or services.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the exposure to unanticipated changes in net interest earnings or loss due to changes in the market value of assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. As a financial institution, our primary market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from volatility in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (repricing risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and LIBOR (basis risk).
We manage market risk though our Asset Liability Council ("ALCO") which is comprised of senior management who are responsible for ensuring that board approved strategies, policy limits, and procedures for managing interest rate risk are appropriately executed within the designated lines of authority and responsibility. The ALCO meets monthly
60

Table of Contents
to review, among other things, the composition of our assets and liabilities, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, our actual and forecasted liquidity position, investment activity and our interest rate hedging transactions. The chairperson of the ALCO reports regularly to our board of directors. Our board reviews all policies impacting asset and liability management and establishes risk tolerance limits for business operations on at least an annual basis.
Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints. In recognition of this, we actively manage our assets and liabilities to maximize our net interest income and return on equity, while managing our risk exposure and maintaining adequate liquidity and capital positions.
Given the nature of our loan and deposit activities, we are liability sensitive to volatility in interest rates. A liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on our interest-earning assets, thus compressing our net interest margin. Conversely, an asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on our interest-earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, thus expanding net interest margin.
We use two primary modeling techniques to assess our exposure to interest rates that simulate the earnings and valuation effects of variations in interest rates: Net Interest Income at Risk ("NII at Risk") and the Economic Value of Equity ("EVE"). These models require that we use numerous assumptions, including asset and liability pricing and repricing, future growth, prepayment rates, non-maturity deposit sensitivity and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely predict the fluctuations in market interest rates or precisely measure the impact of future changes in interest rates. Actual results will differ from the model’s simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and the application and timing of various management strategies.
Stress testing the balance sheet and net interest income using instantaneous parallel shock movements in the yield curve of -100 to +400 basis points is a regulatory and banking industry practice. However, these stress tests may not represent a realistic forecast of future interest rate movements in the yield curve. Because of the lower level of market interest rates, we have not run these models with a yield curve shock beyond -100 basis points. As market interest rates increase, we anticipate running these models with the yield curve shock beyond -100 basis points in future quarters.
Instantaneous parallel interest rate shock modeling is not a predictor of actual future performance of earnings. It is a financial metric used to manage interest rate risk, implement hedging transactions if the metric rises above policy limits for interest rate risk, and track the movement of the Company's interest rate risk position over a historical time frame for comparison purposes.
Our earnings are a function of collecting both a credit risk premium on our loans and an interest rate risk premium on our balance sheet position. The purpose of these premiums being to diversify our earnings position with both credit risk and interest rate risk, which generally tend to be negatively correlated historically for the Company. During weak economic times, our loan losses have been higher than normal, but the Federal Reserve will generally reduce short-term interest rates in an attempt to stimulate the economy and add liquidity. As a result, our interest rate spread will generally increase during those periods. During strong economic times, when the Federal Reserve raises short-term interest rates to dampen economic activity, the Company’s interest rate spread decreases. These periods have historically been indicative of inflation and real property value increases. As such, the decrease in net interest income is typically somewhat offset by declining loan losses in our loan portfolio. There is no guarantee, however, that the past countercyclical nature of our loan losses and our net interest spread declines will continue in the future.
On a quarterly basis, we measure and report NII at Risk to isolate the change in income related solely to interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table illustrates the results of our NII at Risk analysis to determine the extent to which our net interest income over the following 12 months would change if prevailing interest rates increased or decreased by the specified amounts at JuneSeptember 30, 2022. It models instantaneous parallel shifts in market interest rates, implied by the forward yield curve over the next one year period.

The NII at Risk reported at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 reflects that our earnings were in a liability sensitive position in which an increase in interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our NII at Risk increased in connection with upward interest rate shocks as compared to December 31, 2021 primarily due to loan growth and the steepening yield curve, partially offset by an increase in the level of our hedged positions.
EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. The EVE results included in the table below reflect the analysis reviewed monthly by management. It models instantaneous parallel shifts in market interest rates, implied by the forward yield curve. The EVE model calculates the market value of capital by taking the present value of all asset cash flows less the present value of all liability cash flows.

The EVE reported at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 reflects that our market value of capital was in a liability sensitive position in which an increase in interest rates is expected to generate lower market values of capital. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our EVE at risk increased as compared to December 31, 2021 primarily due to loan growth and the steepening yield curve, partially offset by an increase in the level of our hedged positions.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the NII at Risk and EVE analyses presented above. Both the NII at Risk and EVE simulations include assumptions regarding balances, asset prepayment speeds, deposit repricing and runoff and interest rate relationships among balances that we believe to be reasonable for the various interest rate environments. Differences in actual occurrences from these assumptions, as well as nonparallel changes in the yield curve, may change our market risk exposure. Simulated results are not intended to be used as a forecast of the actual effect of changes in market interest rates on our results, but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate interest rate risk strategies.
Hedge Positions
In managing our market risk, our board of directors has authorized the ALCO to utilize long-term borrowings and derivatives, including interest rate caps and swaps, to mitigate interest rate risk in accordance with regulations and our internal policy. We use or expect to use borrowings, interest rate caps and swaps as macro hedges against interest rate sensitivity in our loan portfolio, other interest-earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities. Positions for hedging purposes are undertaken as mitigation to exposure primarily from mismatches between the repricing of assets and liabilities.

We are currently utilizing FHLB advances and interest rate swaps to hedge our liability sensitive interest rate risk position. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company maintained fiveseven interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $950.0 million$1.3 billion to primarily hedge the interest rate risk associated with both fixed rate loans and hybrid adjustable

loans in their fixed rate period. All of our swaps are designated as fair value hedges and involve the payment of a fixed rate amount to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving a variable rate payment over the life of the swaps without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. The gain or loss on derivatives, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income for loans in our unaudited consolidated statements of income. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company recognized an increase in interest income of $463 thousand$2.9 million and $385 thousand,$3.3 million, respectively, in connection with interest rate swaps compared to a reduction of $3.3 millioninterest income of $721 thousand and $6.7$7.5 million, respectively, during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. The prior year reduction in interest income primarily related to two separate, two-year interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $1.0 billion, which matured during the year ended December 31, 2021.
