Forward-Looking Statements

This report may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. Any statements about our management’s expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words or phrases. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included herewith are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein. The inclusion of forward-looking information in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs.

Factors that may affect our results are disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this report and in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (“Form 10-K”).  Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed include, but are not limited to, the following: the difficult market conditions and unfavorable economic conditions and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including the emergence of variant strains of the virus, particularly in the markets in which we operate and in which our loans are concentrated, including declines in housing markets, an increase in unemployment levels and slowdowns in economic growth; our expected future financial results; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio, such as possible additional loan losses and impairment of collectability of loans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and policies and programs implemented by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), including its automatic loan forbearance provisions and the effects on our loan portfolio from our Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) lending activities, specifically with our commercial real estate loans; our level of nonperforming assets and the costs associated with resolving problem loans; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market area;area, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in the markets in which we operate an in which our loans are concentrated; our ability to maintain an adequate level of allowance for loan losses; our ability to successfully manage liquidity risk; our ability to implement our growth strategy and manage costs effectively; the composition of our senior leadership team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to raise additional capital to implement our business plan; changes in market interest rates and impacts of such changes on our profits and business; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents; interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; our ability to maintain our reputation; increased competition in the financial services industry; regulatory guidance on commercial lending concentrations; our relationship with broker-dealers and digital financial service providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the costs and obligations associated with being a publicly traded company; the commencement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us or to which we may become subject; the extensive regulatory framework that applies to us; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes and economic stimulus programs; and other changes in banking, securities and tax laws and regulations, and their application by our regulators; the impact on our operations due to epidemic illnesses, natural or man-made disasters, such as wildfires, the effects of regional or national civil unrest, and political developments that may disrupt or increase volatility in securities or otherwise affect economic conditions; the impact of benchmark interest rate reform in the U.S. and implementation of alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”); fluctuations in the value of the securities held in our securities portfolio; governmental monetary and fiscal policies; material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting; and our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this report. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. Furthermore, many of these risks and uncertainties are currently amplified by and may continue to be amplified by or may, in the future, be amplified by, the COVID-19 pandemic, including the emergence of variant strains of the virus, the pace at which the COVID-19 vaccine can be distributed and administered to residents of the markets Coastal Financial Corporation (the “the Company”) serves and the United States generally, and the impact of varying governmental responses that affect our customers and the economies where they operate. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

COASTAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of operations - Coastal Financial Corporation (“Corporation” or “Company”) is a registered bank holding company whose wholly owned subsidiaries are Coastal Community Bank (“Bank”) and Arlington Olympic LLC (“LLC”). The Company is a Washington state corporation that was organized in 2003. The Bank was incorporated and commenced operations in 1997 and is a Washington state-chartered commercial bank that is a member bank of the Federal Reserve system. Arlington Olympic LLC was formed in 2019 and owns the Company’s Arlington branch site, which the Bank leases from the LLC.

We are headquartered in Everett, Washington, which by population is the largest city in, and the county seat of, Snohomish County.  The Company providesCompany’s business is conducted through 2 reportable segments:  The community bank and CCBX.  The primary focus of the community bank is on providing a fullwide range of banking products and services to consumers and small andto medium-sized businesses, professionals, and individuals throughoutin the greaterbroader Puget Sound arearegion in the state of Washington through its 14 branches in Snohomish, Island and King Counties, and through the Internet and its mobile banking application. The  Bank’s main office and the headquarters of the Bank and Company are located in Everett, Washington. The Bank’s deposits are insured to applicable legal limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). The Bank’s loans and deposits are largely within the greater Puget Sound area, with loans and deposits in our CCBX division expanding beyond the Puget Sound area, and the Bank’s primary funding source is deposits from customers. The CCBX divisionsegment provides bankingBanking as a serviceService (“BaaS”) that allows our broker-dealerbroker dealers and digital financial service partners to offer their customers banking services.  Through CCBX’s partners the Company is able to offer banking services and products across the nation.

The Bank’s CCDB division previously announced intent to collaborate with Google on a digital bank offering.  However Google recently announced its intent to exitdeposits are insured in whole or in part by the digital bank space, so CCDB has shifted focusFederal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The community bank’s loans and will continue to explore other opportunities for growth in thatdeposits are primarily within the greater Puget Sound area, while CCBX loans and deposits are dependent upon the partner’s market.  The Bank’s primary funding source is deposits from customers. The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal(the “Federal Reserve”) and the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions Division of Banks. The Federal Reserve also has regulatory and supervisory authority over the Company.

Financial statement presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim reporting requirements and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and therefore do not include all the information and notes included in the annual consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 12, 2021.14, 2022. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

Amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements and footnote tables are rounded and presented in thousands of dollars except per-share amounts, which are presented in dollars. In the narrative footnote discussion, amounts are rounded to thousands and presented in dollars.

In management’s opinion, all accounting adjustments necessary to accurately reflect the financial position and results of operations on the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been made. These adjustments include normal and recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair and accurate presentation.

Principles of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the LLC. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets, and fair value of financial instruments. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 for potential recognition or disclosure.    To the extent any events and conditions exist, disclosures are made regarding the nature of events and the estimated financial effects for those events and conditions. On October 4, 2021, the Company granted 100,000 share of performance-based restricted stock units to an employee pursuant to the Coastal Financial Corporation 2018 Omnibus Incentive plan.  A maximum of 100,000 shares vest on October 4, 2027, the quantity of which is dependent upon achievement of specified performance goals.  The Company is not aware of any other subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.


Reclassifications - Certain amounts reported in prior quarters' consolidated financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation with no effect on stockholders’ equity or net income.

Note 2 - Recent accounting standards

Recent Accounting Guidance

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, a restructuring of debt constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The CARES Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, specified that, to be eligible not to be considered a TDR, a loan modification must be (1) related to the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the federal national emergency or (B) January 1, 2022. Additionally, under guidance from the federal bank regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, other short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers that were current prior to any relief are not TDRs under ASC Subtopic 310-40. These modifications include short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or delays in payment that are insignificant. The federal banking agencies confirmed with the staff of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that such short-term modifications not to be considered TDRs.  See Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Report for disclosure of the impact to date.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

 

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim period within those annual periods. The Company’s implementation of ASU 2016-13 will be effective January 1, 2023.  The Company is actively assessing the data and the model needs and is evaluating the impact of adopting the amendment. The Company expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period, January 2023,  in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by what the guidance calls reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Also, entities can elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met, and can make a one-time election to sell and/or reclassify held-to-maturity debt securities that reference an interest rate affected by reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities upon issuance through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Management has evaluated the above securities and does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, represents an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”).  Unrealized losses have not been recognized into income because management does not intend to sell and does not expect it will be required to sell the investments. The decline in fair market value of these securities was generallyis largely due to changes in market conditions and interest rates, since purchase and was not relatedrather than credit quality. The fair value is expected to any known declinerecover as the underlying securities in the credit worthiness of the issuer.  Management does not intend to sell any impaired securities nor does evidence suggest that it is more likely than not that management will be required to sell any impaired securities.portfolio approach maturity date and market conditions improve.  Management believes there is a high probability of collecting all contractual amounts due, because the majority of the securities in the portfolio are backed by government agencies or government sponsored enterprises.  However, a recovery in value may not occur for some time, if at all, and may be delayed for greater than the one year time horizon or perhaps even until maturity.

Loan types include PPP loans, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and loans secured by liquid collateral such as cash deposits or marketable securities.

In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the recovery of the Company’s investment is dependent upon the borrower’s ability to collect amounts due from its customers.   The Company also originates

Construction, land and land development loans – The Company originates loans for the construction of 1-4 family, multifamily, and Commercial Real Estate (“CRE”) properties in the Company’s market area. Construction loans are considered to have higher risks due to construction completion and timing risk, the ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, government regulation of real property and the availability of long-term financing. Additionally, economic conditions may impact the Company’s ability to recover its investment in construction loans, as adverse economic conditions may negatively impact the real estate market, which could affect the borrower’s ability to complete and sell the project. Additionally, the fair value of the underlying collateral may fluctuate as market conditions change. The Company occasionally originates land loans for the purpose of facilitating the ultimate construction of a home or commercial building. The primary risks include the borrower’s ability to pay and the inability of the Company to recover its investment due to a material decline in the fair value of the underlying collateral.

Residential real estate loans – Residential real estate loans includeincludes various types of loans for which the Company holds real property as collateral. Included in this segment are multi-family loans, first and second lien single family loans, which arethe Company occasionally purchasedpurchases to diversify the Company’sits loan portfolio, and rental portfolios secured by one-to-four family homes.

The Company grants restructurings in response to borrower financial difficulty, and generally provides for a temporary modification of loan repayment terms. The restructured loans on accrual status represent the only impaired loans accruing interest. In order for a restructured loan to be considered for accrual status, the loan’s collateral coverage generally will be greater than or equal to


100% of the loan balance, the loan is current on payments, and the borrower must either prefund an interest reserve or demonstrate the ability to make payments from a verified source of cash flow for an extended period of time, usually at least six months in duration.

 

NaN loans were restructured in the three or nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020 that qualified as TDRs. The Company has 0 commitments to loan additional funds to borrowers whose loans were classified as TDRs at September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, as there were 0 outstanding TDRs at September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.


 

Pursuant to guidance from the federal bank regulatory agencies, the Company deferred or modified payments on existing loans to assist customers financially during the COVID-19 pandemic and economic shutdown.  As of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 all deferred and modified loans during the COVID-19 pandemic have either returned to active status or paid off.  In accordance with GAAP, the CARES Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, and interagency guidance issued on March 22, 2020 and April 7, 2020, these short-term modifications, made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to borrowers that were current prior to any relief, were not considered TDRs.  

Generally, the accrual of interest on community bank loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due or when they are 90 days past due as to either principal or interest, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection.  Installment/closed-end, and revolving/open-end consumer loans originated by CCBX lending partners will continue to accrue interest until 120 and 180 days past due, respectively. For these loans, an allowance is recorded through provision expense for probable incurred losses. Any principal and interest outstanding on revolving/open-end loans at greater than 180 days past due is charged off against the allowance.  Any accrued interest outstanding on installment/closed-end loans at 120 days past due is reversed against the accrued interest allowance.  These consumer loans are reported out as substandard, 90+ days past due and still accruing.

When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all accrued interest is reversed from current period earnings. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are generally applied as a reduction to the loan principal balance. If the likelihood of further loss is removed, the Company will recognize interest on a cash basis only. Loans may be returned to accruing status if the Company believes that all remaining principal and interest is fully collectible and there has been at least six months of sustained repayment performance since the loan was placed on nonaccrual.

Credit Quality and Credit Risk

Federal regulations require that the Company periodically evaluate the risks inherent in its loan portfolio. In addition, the Company’s regulatory agencies have authority to identify problem loans and, if appropriate, require them to be reclassified. There are three classifications for problem loans: Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss. Substandard loans have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful loans have the weaknesses of loans classified as Substandard, with additional characteristics that suggest the weaknesses make collection or recovery in full after liquidation of collateral questionable on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values. Revolving (open-ended loans, such as credit cards) and installment (closed end) consumer loans originated by CCBX partners continue to accrue interest until they are charged-off at 180 days past due for revolving loans (primarily credit cards) and 120 days past due for installment loans (primarily unsecured loans to consumers).  These consumer loans are reported out as 90+ days past due and still accruing, and are classified as substandard.  There is a high possibility of loss in loans classified as Doubtful. A loan classified as Loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continued classification of the credit as a loan is not warranted. If a loan or a portion thereof is classified as Loss, it must be charged-off, meaning the amount of the loss is charged against the allowance for loan losses, thereby reducing that reserve. The Company also classifies some loans as Watch or Other Loans Especially Mentioned (“OLEM”). Loans classified as Watch are performing assets and classified as pass credits but have elements of risk that require more monitoring than other performing loans and are reported in the OLEM column in the following table. Loans classified as OLEM are assets that continue to perform but have shown deterioration in credit quality and require close monitoring.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”)ALLL covers estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans that are determined to be impaired as well as estimated probable losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio. The ALLL for the community bank is prepared using the information provided by the Company’s credit review process and our historical loss data, together with data from peer institutions and economic information gathered from published sources.  Qualitative factors that are included in the analysis include industry data and data from peer institutions.

The loan portfolio is segmented into groups of loans with similar risk profiles. Each segment possesses varying degrees of risk based on the type of loan, the type of collateral, and the sensitivity of the borrower or industry to changes in external factors such as economic conditions. An estimated loss rate calculated from the Company’scommunity bank’s actual historical loss rates adjusted for current portfolio trends, economic conditions, and other relevant internal and external factors, is applied to each group’s aggregate loan balances.  The $267.3 million in PPP

CCBX loans ashave a higher level of September 30, 2021 are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and were not subject to the allowance analysis or assigned an allowance.  

The Company’s provision for creditexpected losses of $255,000 and $973,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,than our community bank loans which is primarily the result of growthreflected in the loan portfolio.  The $2.2 million and $5.7 million provision for credit losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, is related to the uncertainties in the economic outlook from the COVID-19 pandemic and growth in the loan portfolio. The Company is not required to implement the provisions of the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) accounting standard until January 1, 2023 and is continuing to accountfactors for the allowance for loan losses. Estimated loss rates for CCBX loans vary by partner, and might be based on actual partner experience, realized losses or losses for comparable products or industry averages. Many of the agreements with our CCBX partners provide for a credit enhancement which protects the Bank by absorbing incurred losses.  In accordance with accounting guidance, we estimate and record a provision for probable losses for these CCBX loans.  When the provision for loan losses is recorded, a recovery receivable is also recorded on the balance sheet through noninterest income (BaaS fees -credit enhancement).  Incurred losses are recorded in the allowance for loan losses, and as the credit enhancement recoveries are received from the CCBX partner, the recovery receivable is relieved.If a CCBX lending partner is unable to fulfill their contractual obligations under the incurred loss model.credit enhancement, then the Bank would be exposed to additional loan losses as a result of this counterparty risk and would have to absorb any loan losses associated with the CCBX partner that cannot fulfill its contractual obligations.


The following tables summarize the allocation of the ALLL, as well as the activity in the ALLL attributed to various segments in the loan portfolio, as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021:March 31, 2022:

Our CCBX partners originate deposits and these deposits were primarily noninterest bearing prior to the recent rate increase by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”). Many of these CCBX deposits became interest bearing during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and were reclassified to interest bearing deposits from noninterest bearing deposits, when the FOMC raised rates 0.25% in mid-March 2022.   The amount of deposits that move to interest bearing will increase as rates are raised by the FOMC thereafter.  Once the Fed Funds rate increases to 1.00%, most of the CCBX noninterest bearing deposits will be interest bearing.

Note 6 - Leases

The Company has committed to rent premises used in business operations under non-cancelable operating leases and determines if an arrangement meets the definition of a lease upon inception.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent a right to use an underlying asset for the contractual lease term. Operating lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.  An operating lease ROU asset and operating lease liability will be recognized for any new operating leases at the commencement of the new lease.


The Company’s leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, therefore the Company used its incremental collateralized borrowing rates commensurate with the underlying lease terms to determine the present value of operating lease liabilities. NaN leases renewed during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 1 lease renewed during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.  

The Company’s operating lease agreements contain both lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately.  The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees.

Operating leases with terms of 12 months or less are not included in ROU assets and operating lease liabilities recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease terms include options to extend when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options, determined on a lease-by-lease basis.  As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company does 0t have any leaseshas 1 sublease that havehas not yet commenced.  At September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, lease expiration dates ranged from threeten months to 23.422.9 years, with additional renewal options on certain leases typically ranging from 5 to 10 years. At September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 8.68.4 years.

Rental expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and amounted to $343,000$346,000 and $461,000,$341,000, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and 2020 and $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.2021.

The Company measures and discloses certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale). GAAP establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. Among other things, the accounting standard requires the reporting entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s estimates for market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. An active market is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and shall be used to measure fair value whenever available.

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices in less active markets for identical or similar instruments, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs from nonbinding single dealer quotes not corroborated by observable market data.

The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize at a future date. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. In addition, reasonable comparability between financial institutions may not be likely due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates that must be made given the absence of active secondary markets for certain financial instruments. This lack of uniform valuation methodologies also introduces a greater degree of subjectivity to these estimated fair values.

Items measured at fair value on a recurring basis – The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated:

The amounts disclosed above represent the fair values at the time the nonrecurring fair value measurements were made, and not necessarily the fair value as of the dates reported on.

Impaired loans - A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral or the discounted cash expected future cash flows. Subsequent changes in the value of impaired loans are included within the provision for loan losses in the same manner in which impairment initially was recognized or as a reduction in the provision that would otherwise be reported. Impaired loans are evaluated quarterly to determine if valuation adjustments should be recorded. The need for valuation adjustments arises when observable market prices or current appraised values of collateral indicate a shortfall in collateral value compared to current carrying values of the related loan. If the Company determines that the value of the impaired loan is less than the carrying value of the loan, the Company either establishes an impairment reserve as a specific component of the allowance for loan losses or charges off the impairment amount. These valuation adjustments are considered nonrecurring fair value adjustments.


Equity securities – The Company measures equity securities without readily determinable fair values at cost less impairment (if any), plus or minus observable price changes from an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, with price changes recognized in earnings.

Note 10 – Segment Reporting

As defined in ASC 280, Segment Reporting, an operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision makers to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. We evaluate performance based on an internal performance measurement accounting system, which provides line of business results.  This system uses various techniques to assign balance sheet and income statement amounts to the business segments, including allocations of income and expense.  A primary objective of this measurement system and related internal financial reporting practices are to produce consistent results that reflect the underlying financial impact of the segments on the Company and to provide a basis of support for strategic decision making.  The accounting policies applicable to our segments are those that apply to our preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on these criteria, we have identified 2 segments:  The community bank and CCBX.

Income and expenses that are specific to CCBX are recorded to the CCBX segment.  Additionally, certain indirect expenses are allocated to CCBX utilizing various metrics, such as number of employees, utilization of space, and allocations based on loan and deposit balances. Included in noninterest expense for the bank is administrative overhead/expenses from which both the community bank and CCBX benefit.

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

Overview

We are a bank holding company that operates through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Coastal Community Bank (the “Bank”(“Bank”) and Arlington Olympic LLC.  We are headquartered in Everett, Washington, which by population is the largest city in, and the county seat of, Snohomish County. Our business is conducted through two reportable segments:  The community bank and CCBX.  The primary focus of the Bankcommunity bank is on providing a fullwide range of banking products and services to consumers and small andto medium sized businesses professionals, and individuals throughoutin the greaterbroader Puget Sound region in the state of Washington.Washington and through the Internet and our mobile banking application. We currently operate 14 full-service banking locations, 12 of which are located in Snohomish County, where we are the largest community bank by deposit market share, and two of which are located in neighboring counties (one in King County and one in Island County).  The Bank through its CCBX divisionsegment provides banking as a service (“BaaS”) that allows our broker-dealer and digital financial service partners to offer their customers banking services.  CCDB, our digital banking division,The CCBX segment has 28 partners as of March 31, 2022, compared to 21 as of March 31, 2021. The Bank’s deposits are insured in whole or in part by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank is exploring additional opportunities insubject to regulation by the digital sectorFederal Reserve and the Washington State Department of banking.  Financial Institutions Division of Banks. The Federal Reserve also has supervisory authority over the Company.  

As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we had total assets of $2.45$2.83 billion, total gross loans receivable of $1.71$1.96 billion, total deposits of $2.22$2.58 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $161.1$207.9 million.

The following discussion and analysis presents our financial condition and results of operations on a consolidated basis. However, because we conduct all of our material business operations through the Bank, the discussion and analysis relate to activities primarily conducted by the Bank.

As a bank holding company that operates through one segment,  weWe generate most of our community bank revenue from interest on loans.loans and investments and CCBX revenue from interest on loans and BaaS fee income. Our primary source of funding for our loans is commercial and retail deposits from our customer relationships and from our CCBX division.partner deposit relationships. We place secondary reliance on wholesale funding, primarily borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).  We utilized the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”), which provided an additional source of low cost funding for the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans, with a contractual interest rate of 0.35% and collateralized by PPP loans.  All our PPPLF borrowings were paid in full as of June 30, 2021, and the PPPLF expired on July 31, 2021.  Less commonly used sources of funding include borrowings from the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve) discount window, draws on established federal funds lines from unaffiliated commercial banks, brokered funds, which allows us to obtain deposits from sources that do not have a relationship with the Bank and can be obtained through certificate of deposit listing services, andvia the internet or through other advertising methods, or a one-way buy through an insured cash sweep (“ICS”) account, which allowallows us to obtain funds from other institutions that have deposited funds through ICS. Our largest expenses are salaries and related employee benefits, software licenses, maintenance and subscription expenses, legal and professional fees, provision for loan losses, interest on deposits and borrowings, occupancy and data processing. Our principal lending products are commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, construction, land and land development loans, and to a lesser extent consumer loans.

Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act

Our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were also impacted by the coronavirus, and variants thereof, including the Delta and Omicron variants (“COVID-19”) pandemic. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES ActAct”) was enacted, providing wide ranging economic relief for individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Among other things, the statute created the PPP, which iswas a stimulus response to the potential economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The purpose of the PPP iswas to provide forgivable loans to smaller businesses, sole proprietorships, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals that useused the proceeds of the loans for payroll and certain other qualifying expenses. The Small Business Administration (“SBA”) manages the PPP. If a loan is fully forgiven, the SBA will repay the lending bank in full. If a loan is partially forgiven or not forgiven at all, a bank must look to the borrower for repayment of unforgiven principal and interest. If the borrower defaults, the loan is guaranteed by the SBA. We accepted and processed applications for the duration of the initial PPP loan program, which closed for new applicants on August 8, 2020.  The Consolidated Appropriations Act 2021, enacted on December 27, 2020, appropriated additional funding to the PPP and permitted certain PPP borrowers to make “second draw” loans. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, enacted on March 11, 2021, expanded the eligibility criteria for both first and second draw PPP loans and revised the exclusions from payroll costs for purposes of loan forgiveness. The PPP Extension Act of 2021, enacted on March 25, 2021, extended the PPP through May 31, 2021, at which time the program closed for new applications.

PPP lending resumed on January 19, 2021 (known as “round three” or the “third round” of the PPP), and we accepted and processed applications for the duration of the round three, which closed for applications on May 31, 2021.  In total, we funded $763.9 million in PPP loans, since the first round of PPP loans opened in March 2020 through the close of round three.  Total net deferred fees on these loans were $26.3 million.  As of September 30, 2021, $267.3March 31, 2022, $47.5 million in PPP loans remained with $9.4


$1.4 million in net deferred fees, which will be recognized in interest income in future periods. Legislation extended the initial payment deferral period on PPP loans originated in 2020, and PPP borrowers with two-year loans can work with their lender to extend their loan to a five-year maturity, which we anticipate could behas been a popular approach for customers with PPP loans that are not eligible for forgiveness.   There are $16.2were $2.9 million of these loans remaining as of September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.  PPP loans originated in 2021 are five-year loans, and $251.1$44.6 million


remains of these loans remained as of September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Loan payments will be deferred for borrowers who apply for loan forgiveness until SBA remits the borrower's loan forgiveness amount to the lender. If a borrower does not apply for loan forgiveness, payments are deferred 10 months after the end of the covered period for the borrower’s loan forgiveness (generally between eight and 24 weeks).

We are acceptingcontinue to accept applications from customers for loan forgiveness and we received $130.8 million in forgiveness or principal paydowns in the three months ended September 30, 2021.forgiveness.  To obtain loan forgiveness, a PPP borrower must submit a forgiveness application.  We expect PPP forgiveness payments to continue through the second quarter of 2022.

The Company's Preparations, Responses and Re-Opening to the COVID-19 Pandemic

As part of its ongoing risk preparation and mitigation efforts, we had developed a detailed plan and action measures related to a possible pandemic scenario. This pandemic plan was implemented on March 12, 2020 and continued through the third quarter of 2021. The Company carefully executed the plan with limited operational disruptions, with attention to ensure continued customer support, and with the utmost care to safeguard employees, customers and vendors. Management continues to monitor and, when appropriate, make changes to our planned response. As of September 30, 2021 our re-opening plan includes the following elements:

We are serving customers through drive throughs, call center, mobile banking, online banking and ATMs, and have opened branches for customers.

We continued participation in the SBA PPP with forgiveness or principal paydowns of $130.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and PPP loans outstanding were $267.3 million, as of September 30, 2021.

We actively engaged borrowers and other businesses in discussion to identify short-term cash flow and other financial needs, and restructured payments on existing loans to alleviate financial hardship consistent with regulatory guidance. As of September 30, 2021, all loans that were on deferred or modified payment status have successfully returned to active status or paid off.

We enhanced credit monitoring on loan segments that have been most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, monitoring and tracking loan payment deferrals and customer liquidity.

As of September 30, 2021, Washington state reopened under the Washington Ready plan. All industry sectors previously covered by the Roadmap to Recovery or the Safe Start plan, with the limited exceptions, were permitted to return to usual capacity and operations.

We updated and analyzed the Company's liquidity, funding and capital stress forecasts and risk assumptions.

On July 19, 2021, the Company started its re-opening process, which included some non-remote and hybrid workers returning to the office and in-person gatherings/trainings resuming.  Management recognizes this is an evolving situation and continues to monitor federal, state and local recommendations regarding the  COVID-19 pandemic and the variant strains of the virus.  Management will adjust its re-opening plans and implement precautions to safeguard our employees, customers and vendors based on the information available.  

PPP Overview

TheseThe PPP loans originated in the first and second rounds during 2020 and in the third round in 2021 have had a significant impact on our communities and financial statements forstatements.  As the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and willremaining $47.5 million in PPP loans continue to paydown they will have less impact our results in the future.  Throughout this discussion, we will address the impact of these loans, on the balance sheet and income statement.  Any estimated adjusted ratios that exclude the impact of this activity are non-U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)


measures.  For more information about non-GAAP financial measures, see the non-GAAP disclosure “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

LIBORThe Company's Preparations, Responses and Re-Opening to the COVID-19 Pandemic

As part of its ongoing risk preparation and mitigation efforts, we had developed a detailed plan and action measures related to a possible pandemic scenario. This pandemic plan was implemented on March 12, 2020 and continued through the first quarter of 2022. The Company carefully executed the plan with limited operational disruptions, with attention to ensure continued customer support, and with the utmost care to safeguard employees, customers and vendors. Management continues to monitor and, when appropriate, make changes to our planned response.

London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) Transition

On March 5, 2021, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, confirmed that the publication of most LIBOR term rates will end on June 30, 2023 (excluding 1-week U.S. LIBOR and 2-month U.S. LIBOR, the publication of which will end onended December 31, 2021).  Additionally, onOn April 6, 2021, New York Governor Cuomo signed into law legislation that provides for the substitution of an alternative reference rate, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, in any LIBOR-based contract governed by New York state law that does not include clear fallback language, once LIBOR is discontinued but no later than December 31, 2021.  The Federal Reserve and other federal banking agencies have continued to encourage banks to transition away from LIBOR as soon as practicable.  On March 15, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”), which was included as part of a larger Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022.  The LIBOR Act provides a nationwide process for replacing LIBOR in financial contracts that mature after the cessation of the overnight, one-, three-, six- and 12-month USD LIBOR tenors on June 30, 2023 and that do not provide for an effective means to replace LIBOR upon its cessation.   For contracts in which a party has the discretion to identify a replacement rate, the LIBOR Act also provides a safe harbor to parties if they choose the SOFR-based benchmark replacement rate to be identified by the Federal Reserve. For more information on the Company’s approach to LIBOR transition planning, please see the risk factors discussed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

As of March 31, 2022, we had $227.0 million in loans that are tied to LIBOR, and $185.4 million of those are SWAPs. We have $3.6 million in floating rate junior subordinated debentures to Coastal (WA) Statutory Trust I, which was formed for the issuance of trust preferred securities. These debentures are also tied to LIBOR.  The move to an alternate index may impact the rates we  receive on loans and rates we pay on our junior subordinated debentures.  We have identified the loans and debt instruments impacted, are reviewing LIBOR replacement options and are preparing for and evaluating the impact of the transition from LIBOR. We are no longer issuing any loans or debt tied to LIBOR.

The increase in net income over the comparable period in the prior year was primarily attributable to a $3.2$11.8 million increase in interest income and $19.0 million increase in noninterest income.  Interest income on non-PPP loans increased $3.0 million, or 23.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.  Additionally, a reductionThese were partially offset by an increase in the provision for loan losses of $1.9$12.6 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, comparedrelated to the three months ended September 30, 2020, also contributed to the increaseCCBX loan growth, and $18.1 million more in net income.noninterest expense.  The provision for loan losses was increased in 2020 due the change in economic outlook caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, however those losses have not materialized as anticipated, and therefore we recorded a lower provision for loan losses of $255,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Noninterest income increased $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period last year. The $4.2 million increase in noninterest income overand noninterest expense are largely related to CCBX.  In accordance with GAAP, we recognize the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to a $1.7 million increase in BaaS fees largely due to increased activity, which included $188,000 in interchange income from BaaS partners, compared to $4,000 asreimbursement of September 30, 2020, a $1.5 million increase in unrealized holding gainnon-credit fraud losses on an equity investment, recognized due to an observable price change in an equity security held, a $543,000 increase in loan referral fees, a $159,000 increase in gain on sale ofpartner’s customer loans and $132,000 increase in deposit service charges and fees, primarily in point of sale and ATM fees, which had decreased in 2020 because of stay-at-home orderscredit enhancements related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The increase in legal and professional expenses is associated with fraud recovery see the section titled CCBX division expenses and higher costs associated with legal and accounting work related to financial reporting.  The increase in FDIC assessments is largely the result of an increase in deposits combined with other factors that impact the FDIC assessment calculation compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020.– BaaS Reporting Information.”  

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, was $18.8$29.3 million, compared to $15.1$17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, an increase of $3.7$12.0 million, or 24.6%69.0%. Yield on loans receivable was 6.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared 4.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  The increase in net interest income consisted of a $3.2 million, or 19.6%, increase in interest income coupled with a $497,000, or 38.3%, decrease in interest expense.  The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to a $188.0 million, or 12.6%, increase in average loans outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year period, and contributed $3.1 million increase in interest income for the quarter ended September 30,March 31, 2021 compared to September 30, 2020.  Capital call lines increased $62.3 million, or 63.2%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year period.  These loans bear a lower rate of interest, but have less credit risk due to the way the loans are structured compared to other commercial loans.  

Additionally, yield on loans receivable increased 24 basis points to 4.57% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 from 4.33% for the three months ended September 30, 2020.  The increase in yield on loans receivable compared to September 30, 2020, was largely related to increased yield on loans from growth in higher yielding loans.  Average loans receivable resultingfor the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $1.77 billion, compared to $1.64 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  

Interest and fees on loans totaled $29.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $18.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  The $11.8 million increase in interest and fees on loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to March 31, 2021, was largely due to increased yield on loans from growth in higher yielding loans.  Net non-PPP loan growth andof $682.3 million, or 55.0%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, partially offset a decrease of $496.4 million in lower yielding PPP loans that were forgiven or repaid.  CCBX average loans receivable was $382.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $66.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $315.3 million, or 471.7%.  Average CCBX gross yield of 12.73% was earned on CCBX loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to 2.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  CCBX gross yield does not include the impact of BaaS loan expense.  BaaS loan expense represents the amount paid or payable to partners for credit enhancement and servicing CCBX loans.  As a result of the FOMC raising rates in mid-March 2022, interest rates were increased on $473.6 million in variable rate loans, the impact of this increase in interest rates will be fully seen in future quarters.

As of March 31, 2022 there were $47.5 million in PPP loans, compared $543.8 million as of March 31, 2021.  In the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022 a total of $130.8$64.3 million in PPP loans were forgiven or repaid.  Net deferred fees recognized on PPP loans have a 1.0% interest rate and $267.3contributed $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022 $1.4 million in net deferred fees on PPP loans remained as of September 30, 2021, comparedremains to $452.8 million as of September 30, 2020.be recognized in interest income in future periods along with interest earned on loans.  Net deferred fees on PPP loans are earned over the life of the loan, as a yield adjustment in interest income.  Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periods from the recognition of PPP deferred fees.  AsPPP loans in rounds 1 and 2 were originated in 2020, and were predominately two year loans, and only $2.9 million of Septemberthese loans remained at March 31, 2022.  PPP loans in round 3 were originated in 2021 and are all five-year loans, and $44.6 million of these loans remained at March 31, 2022.  

Interest income from interest earning deposits with other banks was $402,000 at March 31, 2022, an increase of $332,000 due to higher balances, compared to March 31, 2021.  The average balance of interest earning deposits with other banks for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $843.9 million, compared to $195.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  Additionally, the yield on these interest earning deposits with other banks increased four basis points, compared to March 31, 2021.  

Interest expense was $874,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a $169,000 decrease from the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Interest expense on borrowed funds was $321,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $383,000 for the quarter ended


March 31, 2021. The $62,000 decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds from the quarter ended March 31, 2021 is the result of a decrease in average PPPLF borrowings, which were paid off in full as of June 30, 2021, $9.4partially offset by a $ 15.0 million increase in net deferred fees on PPP loans remains to be recognized in interest income along with interest on loans.

Yield on loans receivable, excluding earned fees, approximated 3.74% forsubordinated debt, which increased during the quarter ended September 30, 2021 compared to 3.61% for2021.  Additionally, we paid off $25.0 million in FHLB borrowings late in the quarter ended September 30, 2020. A reconciliationMarch 31, 2022.  The borrowings were no longer needed, and there was no prepayment penalty for early repayment.  Interest expense on interest bearing deposits decreased $107,000 compared to March 31, 2021, because of management lowering interest rates in 2021 on interest bearing deposits resulting in lower interest rates on interest bearing deposits compared to March 31, 2021.  However, interest expense is expected to increase as a result of the FOMC increasing rates 0.25% in mid-March 2022.  In addition, as a result of the FOMC rate increase, $690.4 million in CCBX deposits that were not earning interest were reclassed to interest bearing deposits from noninterest bearing deposits.  This reclassification occurred mid-March 2022, therefore the impact of this non-GAAP measure is set forthchange will not be fully realized until next quarter.  We anticipate additional rate increases in the section titled “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Even though there are rate floors2022, which we expect will result in place for


$460.8 million, or 27.2%, in existing loans, the lower rates have a corresponding impacthigher interest expense on yield on loans receivable and subsequently the netinterest bearing deposits.  

Net interest margin in future periods.  We expect rates to remain at this level for the short term.  

The decrease in interest expensewas 4.45% for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2022, compared to 3.76% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  The increase in net interest margin compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was thelargely a result of  an increase in higher rate, non-PPP loans.  Non-PPP loans increased $682.3 million compared to March 31, 2021.  Also contributing to the increase in net interest margin compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $648.6 million increase in average interest earning deposits.  These interest earning deposits earned an average rate of 19 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Cost of funds was 0.14% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which is a 17decrease of 10 basis points from the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  Cost of deposits for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was 0.09%, which was an 8 basis point or 51.5%, decrease, in cost of funds, bringing it to 0.16% as of September 30,from 0.17% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to 0.33% at September 30, 2020.  The decrease is largely due to an increase in noninterest bearing deposits and a lower rate environment for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period.environment.  Deposit growth from CCBX in noninterest bearing and low interest bearing accounts contributed to the reduced cost of funds in conjunction with rate reductions on our community bank deposits.  Currently,The recent 25 basis point increase in rates by the majorityFOMC did not have a significant impact on the first quarter interest expense, but the impact of that change and the change on loan rates will likely be seen in future quarters.  Noninterest bearing deposits increased $69.4 million, or 9.0%, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021 due to an increase of $759.8 million in noninterest bearing deposits, partially offset by the aforementioned reclassification of $690.4 million of CCBX deposits are noninterest bearing however, as the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee raises interest rates, a majority of these accounts will bear interest and be reclassifieddeposits to interest bearing deposits once rates exceeddeposits.  

Total yield on loans receivable for the minimum interestquarter ended March 31, 2022 was 6.80%, compared to 4.51% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. This increase in yield on loans receivable is primarily attributed to an increase in higher rate set in their respective program agreements and begin to earn interest.CCBX consumer loans.  As of September 30, 2021, there was $607.2the quarter ended March 31, 2022 average CCBX loans increased $315.3 million, inor 471.7%, with an average CCBX depositsgross yield of 12.73%, compared to $51.6 million2.50% at September 30, 2020.

The average balanceMarch 31, 2021.  CCBX gross yield does not include the impact of interest-bearing depositsBaaS loan expense.  BaaS loan expense represents the amount paid or payable to partners for credit enhancement and servicing CCBX loans.  Average community bank loans increased $169.0$209.0 million, or 22.5%19.0%, excluding PPP loans, and PPP loans decreased $396.1 million, or 83.2%, compared to March 31, 2021.  Average yield on community bank loans for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022 was 5.16%. compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020, but the average rate paid on interest bearing deposits was 24 basis points less4.59% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020.  The increased balance compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily attributable to growth in core deposit accounts, which we define as deposits excluding all brokered and time deposits. Average noninterest bearing deposits (such as demand or checking accounts) grew $491.7 million, or 86.3%.  Average NOW (otherwise known as a negotiable order of withdrawal account or interest bearing checking accounts) and money market accounts grew $163.7 million, or 27.8%, and savings accounts increased $20.2 million, or 27.3% compared to September 30, 2020.  Average non-core deposits decreased $14.9 million with time deposits decreasing $17.4 million, or 26.4%, partially offset by an increase of BaaS-brokered deposits of $2.5 million, or 11.5%, compared to September 30, 2020.  As previously mentioned, the current low interest rate environment has impacted the rates that are paid on interest bearing accounts.  The average rate paid on NOW and money market accounts decreased 22 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.  The average rate paid on time deposits also decreased during this period.  For time deposits less than $100,000, the rate decreased 56 basis points and for time deposits over $100,000, the average rate decreased 66 basis points, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period.

A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is set forth in the quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to $418,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.  The decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds from the quarter ended September 30, 2020 is the resultsection titled “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of a decrease in average PPPLF borrowings, which were paid off in full as of June 30, 2021.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into a $25.0 million subordinated note purchase agreement with a current rate of 3.375%, some of the proceeds of which were used to repay an existing $10.0 million in subordinated debt at a higher 5.65% interest rate.  This increased interest expense on the subordinated debt due to the increased principal balance.Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”  

For the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, net interest margin (annualized net interest income divided by average total interest earning assets) and net interest spread (average yield on total interest earning assets minus average cost of total interest bearing liabilities) were 3.48%4.45% and 3.30%4.28%, respectively, compared to 3.62%3.76% and 3.41%3.59%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

The following table presents information regarding the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated for each major component of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and distinguishes between the changes attributable to changes in volume and changes attributable to changes in interest rates. The table illustrates the $2.2$9.3 million increase in loan interest income that is attributed to an increase in loan volume.  This increase is supplemented by a $926,000rates and $2.1 million increase in loan interest income from loans receivable duethat is attributed to higher interest rates; thisan increase is largely related to a reduction in the outstanding balance of 1.0% interest rate PPP loans as of September 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.loan volume.  For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated to volume.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is an expense we incur to maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level that management deems appropriate to absorb inherent losses on existing loans. For a description of the factors taken into account by our management in determining the allowance for loan losses see “—Financial Condition—Allowance for Loan Losses.”

The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022, was $255,000,$12.9 million, compared to $2.2 million$357,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The allowanceincrease in the Company’s provision for loan losses asduring the quarter ended March 31, 2022, is


largely related to the provision for CCBX partner loans.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a percentage of loans was 1.19% at September 30, 2021, compared to 1.13% at September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, there was $267.3$12.6 million in PPP loans included in our portfolio.  These loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA, and therefore we have not allocated any portion of our allowance to these 100% guaranteed loans.  The allowance for loan losses to loans receivable, excluding the guaranteed PPP loans, is 1.40%.  A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is set forth in the section titled “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”  The provision for loan losses was increased in 2020 due to the change in economic outlook caused by the COVID-19 pandemic along with loan growth.recorded for CCBX partner loans based on management’s analysis.   The factors used in management’s analysis of the allowancefor community bank loan losses indicated that a provision for loan losses resulted in a provisionloss of $255,000$344,000 was needed for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The expected COVID-19 pandemic related loan losses have not materialized as originally anticipated in 2020, as evidenced by the low level of charge-offs and nonperforming loans.March 31, 2022.  The economic environment is continuously changing and has shown some signs of improvement, with United States implementing stimulus packages, ongoing vaccination of its population and increased re-opening of business activities. We areeconomic activities, tempered by increased inflation, global unrest, the war in Ukraine and a rise in new COVID-19 variants that have resulted in some economic uncertainty.  The Company is not required to implement the provisions of the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) accounting standard until January 1, 2023 and therefore we are continuingcontinues to account for the allowance for loancredit losses under the incurred loss model. Credit quality has remained stable through September 30, 2021,Gross loans totaled $1.96 billion at March 31, 2022 and included $47.5 million in PPP loans, which are 100% guaranteed, and are excluded from the provision for loan losses calculation.  The allowance for loan losses as demonstrateda percentage of loans was 1.97% at March 31, 2022, compared to 1.11% at March 31, 2021.  Excluding PPP loans, which are 100% guaranteed by the low levelSBA, the adjusted allowance for loan losses as a percentage of charge-offsloans was approximately 2.02% at March 31, 2022.  A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is set forth in the section titled “GAAP Reconciliation and nonperforming loan balance.  Nonperforming loans decreased $3.7 million, to $740,000, asManagement Explanation of September 30, 2021, compared to $4.5 million as of September 30, 2020.  Included in nonperforming loansNon-GAAP Financial Measures.”  

Net charge-offs for the three monthsquarter ended September 30, 2021 is $123,000 in CCBX partner loans that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing.  Nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.03% at September 30, 2021 compared to 0.26% at September 30, 2020.  For a description of the Company’s nonperforming assets see “—Financial Condition—Nonperforming Assets.”


Pursuant to guidance from the federal bank regulatory agencies, the Company deferred and/or modified payments on loans to assist customers financially during the COVID-19 pandemic and economic shutdown There was a total of $246.4March 31, 2022 totaled $2.8 million, or 2500.64% of total average loans, which were deferred and/or for which payments were modified under this guidance. As of September 30, 2021, all of these  loans have successfully returned to active status or paid off.  The purpose of this deferral and modification program was to provide cash flow relief for small business customers as they navigate through the uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The Company’s deferral program has been successful as evidenced by customers’ ability to migrate from deferral to active status and resume making payments as planned.

Net recoveries for the three months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $1,000, as compared to net charge-offs of $1,000$9,000, or <0.01% of total average loans, for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Net charge-offs were up in 2022 compared to 2021 due to CCBX partner loans.  For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $2.8 million of net charge-offs were for CCBX, and for the three months ended September 30, 2020.  NetMarch 31, 2021, $9,000 of net charge-offs were for both quarterlythe community bank.

Noninterest Income

Our primary sources of recurring noninterest income are BaaS fees, deposit service charges and fees, loan referral fees, gain on sales of loans and mortgage broker fees. Additionally, the unrealized holding gain on equity securities was a contributing source of noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2021.  Noninterest income does not include loan origination fees, which are generally recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield using the interest or similar method.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, noninterest income totaled $6.122.0 million, an increase of $4.2$19.0 million, or 215.8%636.8%, compared to $1.9$3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

Deposit Service Charges and Fees. Deposit service charges and fees include service charges on accounts, point-of-sale fees, merchant services fees and overdraft fees. Together they constitute the largest component of our noninterest income, outside of BaaS fee income. Deposit service charges were $956,000$884,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, an increase of $132,000,$21,000, or 16.0%2.4%, from $824,000$863,000 over the same period in the prior year. The increase in deposit service charges and fees was primarily the result of a $93,000$38,000 increase in point of sale fees and $17,000$10,000 increase in service charges on business accounts partially offset by a decrease of $14,000 in merchant services fee income and $13,000 decrease in non-sufficient funds (“NSF”) and overdraft fees in the quarter ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, during whichMarch 31, 2021.   The decrease in NSF and overdraft fees is the economy was impacted by initialresult of the spreadBank reducing NSF and overdraft fees from $35 per item to $15 per item (with a maximum daily fee of COVID-19 pandemic.$175) in December 2021.  NSF and overdraft fees are not a significant source of revenue for us and therefore this change will not have a material impact on noninterest income.

Loan Referral Fees. We earn loan referral fees when we originate a variable rate loan and the borrower enters into an interest rate swap agreement with a third party to fix the interest rate for an extended period, usually 20 or 25 years. We recognize the loan referral fee for arranging the interest rate swap. By facilitating interest rate swaps to our clients, we are able to provide them with a long-term, fixed interest rate without assuming the interest rate risk. We had $723,000$602,000 in income from loan referral fees for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $180,000$597,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021, an increase of $5,000, or 0.8%. Interest rate volatility, swap rates, and the timing of loan closings all impact the demand for long-term fixed rate swaps. The recognition of loan referral fees fluctuates in response to these market conditions and as a result we may recognize more or less, or may not recognize any, loan referral fees in some periods.

Gain on Sales of Loans, net. Gain on sales of loans occurs when we sell in the secondary market the guaranteed portion (generally 75% of the principal balance) of the SBA and U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) loans that we originate. This activity fluctuates based on SBA and USDA loan activity.  Gain onThere was no income from the sale of loans totaled $206,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to $47,000$130,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as a result ofMarch 31, 2021 during which time more SBA and USDA loans were being originated and sold to the secondary market.  

Mortgage Broker Fees. We earn mortgage broker fees for residential real estate loans that we broker through mortgage lenders. Mortgage broker fees increased $62,000decreased $139,000, or 53.1%, in the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 to $187,000,$123,000, compared to $125,000$262,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 as a result of decreased demand resulting from higher demand.interest rates.

Other. This category includes a variety of other income-producing activities, credit card fee income, wire transfer fees, interest earned on bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”), annuity broker fees, and SBA and USDA servicing fees. Other noninterest income increased $112,000$81,000, or 44.0%, in the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 primarily due to an increase in earnings on BOLI and increased credit card fee income.


Noninterest Expense

The largest componentcomponents of noninterest expense isare BaaS expense and salaries and employee benefits.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022 income tax expense totaled $1.91.7 million, compared to $1.1$1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.  The $788,000$95,000 increase in income tax expense is the result of higher net income.   Additionally, we are now subject toincome, combined with the addition of various state taxes that are being assessed as a result of hiring staff in multiple states, remote employees and CCBX activities and employees expanding into other states, which has increased the overall tax rate used in calculating the provision for income taxes in the current and future periods. Our effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 were 21.1% and 2020 were 21.9% and 20.9%20.7%, respectively.


Comparison

Segment Information

For financial reporting purposes our Company has two reportable segments:  The community bank and CCBX, which has been determined based upon the Company's relationship with the end customer.  This determination also gave consideration to the structure and management of Operating Resultsour various products.  The community bank segment includes the operations of Coastal Community Bank, excluding CCBX BaaS operations.  The community bank segment derives its revenue primarily from interest on loans and investments as well as noninterest income typical for the Nine monthsbanking industry.  The CCBX segment includes BaaS operations.  The CCBX segment derives its revenue from BaaS partnerships that allow our broker-dealer and digital financial partners to offer their customers banking services.

Reported segments and the financial information of the reported segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. Additionally, because of the interrelationships of the various segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities. Changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and procedures may result in future changes to previously reported segment financial data. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in “Note 1 – Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Income and expenses that are specific to CCBX are recorded to the CCBX segment.  Additionally, certain indirect expenses are allocated to CCBX utilizing various metrics, such as number of employees, utilization of space, and allocations based on loan and deposit balances. Included in noninterest expense for the community bank is administrative overhead of $5.4 million and $4.4 million for the quarters ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively.  Both the community bank and September 30, 2020the CCBX segment benefit from these administrative services.

ResultsCommunity bank total assets as of OperationsMarch 31, 2022 increased $14.2 million, or 0.62%, to $2.30 billion, compared to $2.28 billion as of December 31, 2021.  Loans receivable net of deferred fees for the community bank segment increased $52.8 million, or 3.8%, to $1.45 billion as of March 31, 2022, compared to $1.40 billion as of December 31, 2021.  The increase in community bank loans receivable is the result of non-PPP gross loan growth of $115.1 million partially offset by $64.3 million in PPP loan forgiveness and paydowns during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.  Total community bank deposits increased $29.5 million, or 1.8%, to $1.68 billion, as of March 31, 2022, compared to $1.65 billion as of December 31, 2021.  The increase in deposits is largely due to initiatives to expand and grow banking relationships with new and existing customers.  

Net Income

Netinterest incomefor the nine months ended September 30, 2021,community bank was $19.7$17.4 millionor $1.58 per dilutedshare,comparedto $10.5 million,or $0.86 per dilutedshare,for the nine monthsquarter ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2022, an increase of $468,000, or 2.8%, compared to $16.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  The increasein net incomeover the comparableperiodin the prioryear was attributableto a $14.3 million increase in net interest income is largely relateddue to PPP andincreased yield on loans resulting from non-PPP loan growth.  A reductiongrowth and a decrease in the provisionlower yielding PPP loans.  Provision for loan losses of $4.7was $344,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $320,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  Net charge-offs to average loans for the community bank segment have remained consistently low and was <0.01% for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, and 2021.  Noninterest income for the community bank was $1.8 million, for the nine monthsquarter ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, a decrease of $232,000, or 11.4%, compared to $2.0 million for the nine monthsquarter ended September 30, 2020, also contributed to the increase in net income.  The provision for loan losses increased in 2020March 31, 2021, due to the change in economic outlook caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, however losses have not materialized as anticipated,reduced mortgage broker fees and therefore a provision of $973,000 was recorded, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 there was $7.8 million increase in noninterest income, including $3.0 million increase in BaaS fees as a result of growth in CCBX, $1.5 million on an unrealized holding gain on equity securities as a result of an observable price change, and $1.3 millionno gain on sale of loans during the Freeland branchthree months ended March 31, 2022.  Noninterest expenses for the community bank increased $2.4 million, or 21.8%, to $13.6 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Noninterest$11.1 million as of March 31, 2021.  The increase in noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $14.6 million higher compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarilyis largely due to $9.7 million higherincreased salaries and employee benefits as a result of growth, in CCBX and growth initiatives, an increase of $1.0 million in legal, accounting and professional fees related to CCBX, financial reporting, and compliance consulting, $925,000 more inhigher software licenses maintenance and subscriptions,subscription costs related to new reporting software that helps to automate and $714,000create efficiencies in reporting, and other expense increases related to growth.

CCBX total assets as of March 31, 2022 increased $184.1 million, or 52.1%, to $537.1 million, compared to $353.0 million as of December 31, 2021.  Total CCBX loans receivable increased $168.7 million, or 48.7%, to $515.4 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to $346.7 million as of December 31, 2021.  The increase in BaaS expense.  

Net InterestIncomeloans receivable is the result of increased activity with CCBX partners.  CCBX allowance for loan losses increased to $18.1 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to $8.3 million as of December 31, 2021 as a result of loan growth and portfolio mix.  Total CCBX deposits increased $183.2 million, or 25.6%, to $899.5 million, compared to $716.3 million as of December 31, 2021 as a result of growth within the CCBX relationships.  This does not include an additional $276.4 million in CCBX deposits that are transferred off the balance sheet as of March 31, 2022.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021,CCBX was $54.7 million, compared to $40.5$11.9 million for the nine monthsquarter ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2022, an increase of $14.3$11.5 million, or 35.3%.2,952.4%, compared to $389,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.  The increase in net interest income consisted of ais due to loan growth from new and existing CCBX relationships.  Provision for loan losses was $12.6 million or 28.0%,for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $37,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, as a result of loan growth from adding new partners.  Noninterest income for CCBX was $20.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, an increase in interest income coupled with a $1.7of $19.2 million, or 37.5%2,028.9%, decrease in interest expense.  

The increase in interest income was primarily attributablecompared to a $425.1 million, or 33.6%, increase in average loans outstanding$948,000 for the nine months


quarter ended September 30,March 31, 2021, compared to the prior year period, partially offset by a 14 basis point decrease in yield on loans receivable from 4.65% for the nine months September 30, 2020 to 4.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  The decrease in yield on loans receivable, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was largely due to an average balanceincrease of $435.4$1.3 million increase in PPP loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  PPP loans have a 1.0% interest rate and an approximate yield of 3.97% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, after including the amortization of deferred fees and costs.  Capital call lines increased $117.7 million, or 268.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  These loans bear a lower rate of interest,total BaaS fee program income, which contributed to the lower yield on loans receivable, but have less credit risk due to the way the loans are structured compared to other commercial loans.  Also contributing to the decline in yield on loans receivable is the current low interest rate environment which results in lower rates on our variable rate, new and renewing loans.  

Yield on loans receivable, excluding earned fees, approximated 3.57% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 4.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is set forth in the section titled “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Although there are rate floors in place for $460.8 million, or 27.2%, in existing loans, the lower rates have a corresponding impact on yield on loans receivable and subsequently the net interest margin in future periods.  We expect rates to remain at this level in the near future.  

The decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was the result of a 25 basis point, or 55.6%, decrease in cost of funds, bringing it to 0.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 0.45% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  In addition to the aforementioned low interest rate environment, which resulted in a lower interest rate paid on interest-bearing deposit accounts, we gained new customerincreased relationships by originating PPP loans to noncustomers and they continue to move their banking/deposit relationships over to the Bank.  Additionally, as of September 30, 2021, there were a total of $607.2 million in CCBX deposits compared to $51.6 million at September 30, 2020. These increases in noninterest bearing and low interest rate interest bearing deposits helped contribute to the improved cost of funds for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year period.   Currently, the majority of CCBX deposits are noninterest bearing; however, if the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee raises interest rates, a majority of these accounts will bear interest and be reclassified to interest bearing deposits once rates exceed their minimum interest rate set in their respective program agreements and begin to earn interest, which will increase interest expense and cost of funds.  


The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $196.5 million, or 28.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, but the average rate paid on interest bearing deposits was 26 basis points less for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  The increased balance compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is primarily attributable to growth in core deposit accounts, which we define as deposits excluding all brokered and time deposits. Noninterest bearing deposits (such as demand or checking accounts) grew $385.0 million, or 78.8%.  Average NOW (which are interest bearing checking accounts) and money market accounts grew $195.4 million, or 36.8%, and savings accounts increased $25.3 million, or 38.8% compared to September 30, 2020.  Average non-core deposits decreased $24.2 million with time deposits decreasing $25.5 million, or 32.6%, partially offset by $1.3 million increase in average BaaS-brokered deposits, compared to September 30, 2020.  As previously mentioned, the current low interest rate environment has impacted the rates that are paid on interest bearing accounts.  The average rate paid on BaaS-brokered deposits decreased 24 basis points to 0.35%, and NOW and money market accounts decreased 39 basis points to 0.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  The average rate paid on time deposits also decreased during this period.  For time deposits less than $100,000, the rate decreased 52 basis points to 0.61% and for time deposits over $100,000, the average rate decreased 73 basis points to 0.72%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period.  

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net interestmargin(annualizednet interestincomedividedby averagetotalinterest earningassets) and net interestspread(averageyieldon totalinterest earningassetsminusaveragecost of totalinterest bearingliabilities)were 3.64% and 3.46%, respectively,comparedto 3.81% and 3.51%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  


The followingtablepresentsan analysis of the average balances of net interestincome,net interestspreadand net interestmarginfor the periodsindicated.Loan feesincludedin interestincometotaled$11.8 million and $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. A total of $9.7 million in PPP loan net fees were recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Yield on loans receivable was 4.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 4.65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the amount of interestincomenot recognizedon nonaccrualloans was not material.

Provisionfor LoanLosses

The provisionfor loan lossesis an expense weincurto maintainan allowancefor loan lossesat a levelthatmanagement deems appropriate to absorb inherentlosseson existingloans. For a descriptionof the factors taken into accountby our managementin determiningthe allowancefor loan lossessee “—Financial Condition—Allowance for Loan Losses.”

The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $973,000, compared to $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.19% at September 30, 2021, compared to 1.13% at September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, there was $267.3 million in PPP loans included in our portfolio.  These loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA, and therefore we have not allocated any portion of our allowance to these 100% guaranteed loans.  The allowance for loan losses to loans receivable, excluding the guaranteed PPP loans, is 1.40%.  A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is set forth in the section titled “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”  The provision for loan losses was increased in 2020 due to the change in economic outlook caused by the COVID-19 pandemic along with loan growth.  The factors used in management’s analysis of the provision for loan losses resulted in a provision of $973,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  The expected loan losses have not materialized as originally anticipated in 2020, as evidenced by the low level of charge-offs and nonperforming loans.  The economic environment is continuously changing and has shown signs of improvement, with United States implementing substantial economic stimulus legislation, ongoing vaccination of its population and increased re-opening of business activities. We are not required to implement the provisions of CECL accounting standard until January 1, 2023, and therefore we are continuing to account for the allowance for loan losses under the incurred loss model.  Credit quality has remained stable through September 30, 2021, as demonstrated by the low level of charge-offs and nonperforming loan balance.  Nonperforming loans decreased $3.7 million, to $740,000, as of September 30, 2021, compared to $4.5 million as of September 30, 2020.  Included in nonperforming loans for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is $123,000 in CCBX partner loans that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing.  Nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.03% at September 30, 2021 compared to 0.26% at September 30, 2020.  For a description of the Company’s nonperforming assets see “—Financial Condition—Nonperforming Assets.”

Pursuant to guidance from the federal bank regulatory agencies, the Company deferred and/or modified payments on loans to assist customers financially during the COVID-19 pandemic and economic shutdown.  There was a total of $246.4 million, or 250 loans,


granted deferred and/or modified payments under this guidance. As of September 30, 2021, all of these loans have successfully returned to active status or paid off.  The purpose of this deferral and modification program was to provide cash flow relief for small business customers as they navigate through the uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The Company’s deferral program has been successful, as evidenced by customers’ ability to migrate from deferral to active status and resume making payments as planned.

Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaled$13,000, a non-material percentage of the value of total averageloans, as comparedto $131,000, or 0.01% (annualized) of totalaverageloans, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Gain on Sales of Loans, net. Gain on sales of loans occurs when we sell in the secondary market the guaranteed portion (generally 75% of the principal balance) of the SBA and USDA loans that we originate. This activity fluctuates based on SBA and USDA loan activity.  Gain on sale of loans was $367,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and $47,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Salariesand Employee Benefits.Salariesand employeebenefitsare the largestcomponentof noninterest expense and includepayrollexpense, incentivecompensationcosts,benefitplans, healthinsuranceand payroll taxes.Salariesand employeebenefitswere $26.6 millionfor the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $9.7 million, or 57.4%, comparedto $16.9 millionfor the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to hiring staff for our CCBX  and CCDB divisions and additional staff for our ongoing banking related growth initiatives. Bonus and incentive expense was $1.9 million higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due in part to incentives paid to employees that have been involved in the production and support of PPP loans.  The increase in expense would have been greater if not for an increase in deferred loan costs recorded as salary offsets, largely from originating PPP loans, which was $354,000 higher and lowered expense by that same amount, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to the nine monthsquarter ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.  For more information on the accounting for BaaS income and expenses see the section titled As our CCBX activities grow, we expect to continue to add employees to support these lines of business.  Asof September 30, 2021, wehad 342.7 full-timeequivalentemployees,comparedto 234.2 at September 30, 2020, a 46.3% increase.

This categoryincludesbuilding,leasehold,furniture,fixturesand equipmentdepreciationtotaling$1.2 million and $965,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $206,000.  As we continue to grow, we expect occupancy expenses to increase in future periods.  

Data Processing.Data processingcostswere $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Data processing costsincludeallof our customertransaction processing and data storage,computerprocessing,and network costs.  Data processing costs grow as we add new products, customers and branches.  Additionally, CCBX data processing expenses are included in this category and are expected to increase incrementally as the CCBX transactions increase.

Legal and Professional Fees. Legal and professional costs were $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Legal and professional costs fluctuate with the development of contracts for CCBX customers and are also impacted by our reporting cycle and timing of legal and professional services. Contributing to the increase in legal and professional expenses is consulting expenses related to monitoring for Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering, CCBX operations and higher costs related to legal and accounting work related to financial reporting.

Software Licenses, Maintenance and Subscriptions. Software licenses, maintenance and subscriptions includes expenses related to obtaining and maintaining software required for various functions throughout the Company.   Software licenses, maintenance and subscriptions were $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $919,000 for the prior year period.  


Software that aids in the reporting of CCBX and helps to automate and create other efficiencies in reporting contributed to the increase.  These expenses are expected to increase as we invest more in automated processing and as we grow product lines and our CCBX and CCDB divisions.

Excise Taxes. Excise taxes were $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $756,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Excise taxes are based on gross income of $71.4 million and $51.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.  Gross income is reduced by certain allowed deductions to arrive at the taxable base; however, as gross income increases, so does the excise tax expense.  

BaaS expense. Our CCBX division provides BaaS offerings that enable our broker dealer and digital financial service providers to offer their customers banking services.  Included in BaaS expense is partner loan expense and partner fraud expense.  BaaS loan expense represents the amount paid to partners for originating and servicing loans.  BaaS fraud expense represents non-credit fraud losses on partner’s customer loan and deposit accounts.  Any credit enhancement provided by the partner is reimbursed and included in noninterest income.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, BaaS expense was $905,000 compared to $191,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Reporting Information.”.

Marketing. Marketing costs were $344,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $280,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Marketing costs were lower in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as a result of reduced marketing during the COVID-19 pandemic, however, as we continue to expand our CCBX and CCDB divisions, offer new products and services and grow our brand, we expect marketing costs to increase.

Business Development. Business development costs were $322,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $245,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  Business development costs include sponsorships and other activities to cultivate business and community development.  These expenses are increasing to a more typical level as business activities resume, but were reduced as a result of restrictions on in person meetings and business related activities in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Other. This category includes dues and memberships, office supplies, mail services, telephone, examination fees, internal loan expenses, services charges from banks, operational losses, directors and officer’s insurance, donations, provision for unfunded commitments, and miscellaneous other expenses. Other noninterest expenses were $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was largely due to a $127,000 increase in provision for unfunded commitments, $85,000 increase in FRB and other bank service charges and overall growth for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period last year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, incometax expense totaled$5.7 million, comparedto $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Additionally, we are now subject to various state taxes that are being assessed as a result of hiring staff in multiple states, remote employees and CCBX activities expanding into other states, which has increased the overall rate used in calculating the provision for income taxes in the current and future periods.


Our effectivetax ratesfor the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 22.5% compared to 20.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.


Financial Condition

The Company’sOur total assets increased $685.4$198.2 million, or 38.8%7.5%, to $2.45$2.83 billion at September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 from $1.77$2.64 billion at December 31, 2020.2021.  The increase is primarily the result of $493.9$211.3 million increase in interest earning deposits with other banks including the Federal Reserve, combined with $158.5 million growth in loans receivable during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.  As of September 30, 2021, $267.3March 31, 2022 $47.5 million in PPP loans remain on the balance sheet, a decrease of $98.5$64.3 million from $365.8$111.8 million at December 31, 2020.  These PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and have a rate of 1.0%, and an approximate yield of 3.97% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  

Loan Portfolio

We accepted and processed requests for PPP loans from the beginning of the program in March 2020 for the duration of round one1 and two2 of the PPP, and throughout round three,3, which closed for applications on May 31, 2021.  As a preferred SBA lender, we worked diligently with the SBA to offer assistance to small businesses as provided in the CARES Act, as amended by subsequent legislation, which significantly impacted our loan totals.  These SBA loans are discussed further in this section under “Commercial and Industrial Loans”.  

Our primary source of income is derived through interest earned on loans. A substantial portion of our loan portfolio consists of commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans in the Puget Sound region.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. Commercialand industrialloans decreased$2.3 $24.7 million,or 0.4%5.9%, to $536.9$394.3 millionas of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, from $539.2$419.1 millionas of December 31, 2020.2021. The decrease in commercial and industrial loans receivable over December 31, 2021 was due to $64.3 million in forgiveness and repaid PPP loans, partially offset by an increase of $15.8 million increase in capital call lines, and $23.8 million increase in other commercial and industrial loans.  Included in the commercial and industrial loan balance is $218.7 million and $202.9 million in capital call lines resulting from relationships with our CCBX customers as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.  Also included in commercial and industrial loans is $47.5 million and $111.8 million in PPP loans as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.  

Commercial and industrial loans are underwritten after evaluating and understanding the borrower’s ability to operate profitably and effectively. These loans are primarily made based on the borrower’s ability to service the debt from income. CommercialMost commercial and industrial loans are typically secured by the assets being financed or other business assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory or equipment, and we generally obtain personal guarantees on these loans.

Included in this balance is $161.5 Commercial and industrial loans includes $35.2 million and $20.2 million in capital call lines resulting from relationships with our CCBX customersloans to financial institutions and $4.5 million and $4.8 million in unsecured loans, as of September 30, 2021.   Capital call lines bear a lower rate of interest, but have less credit risk due to the way the loans are structured compared to other commercial loans.March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

In the first two rounds

The purpose of the PPP was to provide forgivable loans to smaller businesses, sole proprietorships, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals that use the proceeds of the loans for payroll and certain other qualifying expenses. The Small Business


Administration (“SBA”) manages the PPP. If a loan is fully forgiven, the SBA will repay the lending bank in full. If a loan is partially forgiven or not forgiven at all, a bank must look to the borrower for repayment of unforgiven principal and interest. If the borrower defaults, the loan is guaranteed by the SBA. We accepted and processed applications for the duration of the initial PPP loan program, inwhich closed for new applicants on August 8, 2020.  The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, enacted on December 27, 2020, our work withappropriated additional funding to the SBAPPP and permitted certain PPP borrowers to help small businesses as provided inmake “second draw” loans. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, enacted on March 11, 2021, expanded the CARESeligibility criteria for both first and second draw PPP loans and revised the exclusions from payroll costs for purposes of loan forgiveness. The PPP Extension Act and subsequent legislation resulted in aof 2021, enacted on March 25, 2021, extended the PPP through May 31, 2021, at which time the program closed for new applications.

In total, of $452.8we funded $763.9 million in PPP loans, since the first round of PPP loans opened in March 2020 through the close of round three on May 31, 2021.  Total net deferred fees on these loans were $26.3 million.  As of March 31, 2022, $47.5 million in PPP loans remained with a total of $12.9$1.4 million in net deferred fees.  PPP loans have a maximum maturity of five years, bear a 1.0% interest rate and may be forgiven by the SBA if certain criteria are met.  The deferred fees, are orwhich will be recognized in interest income overin future periods. Legislation extended the life of the loans; however, ifinitial payment deferral period on PPP loans originated in 2020, and PPP borrowers with two-year loans can work with their lender to extend their loan to a five-year maturity, which we anticipate could be a popular approach for customers with PPP loans that are forgiven or paid off, remaining deferred fees will be recognized in the period the forgiveness or payoff occurs.  As of September 30, 2021, $16.2not eligible for forgiveness.   There are only $2.9 million of these loans remain.

The third roundremaining as of the PPP loan program opened for applications on January 19, 2021 and closed on MayMarch 31, 2021.  In this latest round of2022.  PPP loans we funded $311.0 millionoriginated in PPP2021 are five-year loans, and net deferred fees on$44.6 million of these loans totaled $13.3 million.  Round three PPP loans have a maturityremained as of five years.March 31, 2022. Loan payments will be deferred for borrowers who apply for loan forgiveness until SBA remits the borrower's loan forgiveness amount to the lender. If a borrower does not apply for loan forgiveness, payments are deferred 10 months after the end of the covered period for the borrower’s loan forgiveness. As of September 30, 2021, $251.1 million in these loans remain.forgiveness (generally between eight and 24 weeks).

We are acceptingcontinue to accept applications from customers for loan forgiveness.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we received $409.6 million in forgiveness payments or principal paydowns.  In order toTo obtain loan forgiveness, a PPP borrower must submit a forgiveness application.  We expect thatPPP forgiveness payments to continue through the pacesecond quarter of forgiveness of2022, and that PPP loans will remain fairly steady throughout 2021, and start declining in 2022 as the covered periods will have passed and payments will start up gradually for loans originated earlier in the program.  Legislation extended the initial payment deferral period on PPP loans, and PPP borrowers with two-year loans can work with their lender to extend to a five year maturity, which we anticipate could be a popular approach for customers whose PPP loans are not eligible for forgiveness or who have only received partial forgiveness. Forgiveness of principal, early paydowns and payoffs on PPP loans will increase interest income earned in those periodssubstantially paid down from the recognition of deferred PPP loan fees.$47.5 million outstanding at March 31, 2022.

Unfunded loan commitments for construction, land and land development loans collateralized by owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied real estate, as well as multi-family residential loans. The real estate securing our existing commercial real estate loans includes a wide variety of property types, such as manufacturing and processing facilities, business parks, warehouses, retail centers, convenience stores, hotels and motels, office buildings, mixed-use residential and commercial, and other properties. We originate both fixed- and adjustable-rate loans with terms up to 20 years. Fixed-rate loans typically amortize over a 10-to-25 year period with balloon payments duewere $116.8 million at the end of five to ten years. Adjustable-rate loans are generally based on the prime rate and adjust with the prime rate or are based on term equivalent FHLB rates. At September 30, 2021, approximately 30.8% of the commercial real estate loan portfolio


consisted of fixed rate loans. Commercial real estate loans represented 48.7% of our loan portfolio at September 30, 2021 and are historically our largest source of revenue. As of September 30, 2021, we held $35.9 million in purchased commercial real estate loans,March 31, 2022, compared to $29.6$134.3 million at December 31, 2020.2021.  Although we have seen a strong commercial and residential real estate market in the Puget Sound region thus far in 2021, the economic environment is continuously changing and is impacted by increased inflation, global unrest, the war in Ukraine and a rise in new COVID-19 variants that have resulted in some economic uncertainty.  

Construction, land and land development loans are comprised of loans to fund construction, land acquisition and land development construction. The additionproperties securing these loans are primarily located in the Puget Sound region and are comprised of the $267.3both residential and commercial properties, including owner occupied properties and investor properties.

We originate one-to-four family residential real estate adjustable-rate mortgage (“ARM”), loans for our portfolio and operate as a mortgage broker for mortgage lenders we have agreements with for customers who want a 15-year to 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage loan. As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the balance of our ARM portfolio loans was $22.1$23.7 million, compared to $20.5$22.2 million at December 31, 2020.2021.  Our ARM loans typically do not meet the guidelines for sale in the secondary market due to characteristics of the property, the loan terms or exceptions from agency underwriting guidelines, which enables us to earn a higher interest rate.We also purchase residential mortgages originated by other financial institutions to hold for investment with the intent to diversify our residential mortgage loan portfolio, meet certain regulatory requirements and increase our interest income.  We last purchased residential mortgage loans in 2018.  As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, we held $13.5$11.2 million in purchased residential real estate mortgage loans, compared to $16.8$11.9 million at December 31, 2020.2021.  These loans purchased typically have a fixed rate with a term of 15 to 30 years and are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate. We have a defined set of credit guidelines that we use when evaluating these loans. Although purchased loans were originated and underwritten by another institution, our mortgage, credit, and compliance departments conduct an independent review of each underlying loan that includes re-underwriting each of these loans to our credit and compliance standards. We also make one-to-four family loans to investors to finance their rental properties and to business owners to secure their business loans.  Asof September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, residentialrealestateloans made to investorsand businessowners totaled$102.0 million, compared to $84.3 million as $129.2 million. As of December 31, 2020. Residential2021, residential real estate loans also includes $14.0made to investors and business owners totaled $114.0 million.


As of March 31, 2022, there were $84.2 million in CCBX home equity loans at September 30, 2021,included in residential real estate, compared to none$36.9 million at December 31, 2020.2021, as a result of increased activity.

Like our commercial real estate loans, our residential real estate loans are secured by real estate, the value of which may fluctuate significantly over a short period of time as a result of market conditions in the area in which the real estate is located. Adverse developments affecting real estate values in our market areas could therefore increase the credit risk associated with these loans, impair the value of property pledged as collateral on loans, and affect our ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure without a loss or additional losses.

Allowance for Loan Losses

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

In connection with our allowance for loan loss review, we consider risk elements applicable to particular loan types or categories in assessing the quality of individual loans. Some of the risk elements we consider include:

 

for commercial and industrial loans, the debt service coverage ratio (income from the business in excess of operating expenses compared to loan repayment requirements), the operating results of the commercial, professional or agricultural enterprise, the borrower’s business, professional and financial ability and expertise, the specific risks and volatility of income and operating results typical for businesses in that category and the value, nature and marketability of collateral;

 

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

 

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

 

for construction, land and land development loans, the perceived market feasibility of the project including the ability to sell developed lots or improvements constructed for resale or the ability to lease property constructed for lease, the quality and nature of contracts for presale or prelease, if any, experience and ability of the developer and loan-to-value ratio.

Asof September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the allowancefor loan lossestotaled$20.2 million,or 1.19% of totalloans. Asof December 31, 2020, the allowancefor loan losses totaled$19.3 $38.8 million,or 1.25%1.97% of totalloans. As of December 31, 2021, the allowance for loan losses totaled $28.6 million, or 1.64% of total loans. The increase in the Company’s provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021, is largely related to the provision for CCBX partner loans.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a $12.6 million provision for loan losses was recorded for CCBX partner loans based on management’s analysis.  The factors used in management’s analysis for community bank loan losses indicated that a provision for loan losses of $344,000 was needed for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.  The economic environment is continuously changing and has shown some signs of improvement, with ongoing vaccination of its population and increased re-opening of economic activities, tempered by increased inflation, global unrest, the war in Ukraine and a rise in new COVID-19 variants that have resulted in some economic uncertainty.  CCBX loans have a higher level of expected losses than our community bank loans, which is reflected in the factors for the allowance for loan losses.  Many agreements with our CCBX partners provide for a credit enhancement which protects the Bank by absorbing incurred losses.  In accordance with accounting guidance, we estimate and record a provision for probable losses for these CCBX loans.  When the provision for loan losses and provision for unfunded commitments is recorded, a recovery receivable is also recorded on the balance sheet through noninterest income (BaaS fees -credit enhancement).  Incurred losses are recorded in the allowance for loan losses, and as the credit enhancement recoveries are received from the CCBX partner, the recovery receivable is relieved.  Although many agreements with our CCBX partners provide for credit enhancements that provide protection to the Bank from credit and fraud losses by absorbing incurred credit and fraud losses, if our partner is unable to fulfill their contracted obligations then the bank would be exposed to additional loan losses, as a result of this counterparty risk. The Company is not required to implement the provisions of the CECL accounting standard until January 1, 2023 and continues to account for the allowance for credit losses under the incurred loss model.

The allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans ratio increased substantially as of March 31, 2022, compared to March 31, 2021 as a result of a decrease of $477,000 in nonaccrual community bank loans, combined with an increase of $19.2 million in the allowance for loan losses.  The increase in the allowance for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, is largely related to the increase in the allowance for CCBX partner loans.  CCBX partner agreements provide for a credit enhancement that covers the $2.8 million in net-charge-offs on CCBX loans for the three months ended March 31, 2022.  At March 31, 2022, there was a balance of $18.1 million in the allowance for loan losses for CCBX partner loans, compared to $102,000 at March 31, 2021.  

Although we believe that we have established our allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP and that the allowance for loan losses was adequateto providefor knownand inherentlossesin the portfolioat alltimes shownabove, futureprovisionsfor loan losseswill be subjectto ongoing evaluationsof the risksin our loan portfolio.  As a resultThe expected COVID-19 loan losses have not materialized as originally anticipated in 2020, as evidenced by the low level of the COVID-19 pandemiccharge-offs and the subsequent impact to the economy, we increased our provision during the year ended December 31, 2020.  The provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was based primarily on non-PPP loan growth during the quarter.   The economic outlook has improved with additional substantial economic stimulus legislation, increased vaccine adoption, and the re-opening of activities previously restricted.  However,nonperforming loans, however if the COVID-19 pandemic including the emergence of variant strains of the virus, worsens or continues indefinitely, preventing businesses and consumers from conducting business in the ordinary course, the Washington state and the Puget Soundregion may experiencea continuedmore severe economicdownturn, and our assetqualitycould deteriorate, which may require material additional provisions for loan losses.  We remain focused on working with our borrowers and the communities we serve to help them through the COVID-19 pandemic.


Securities

We use our securities portfolio primarily as a source of liquidity and collateral that can be readily sold or pledged for public deposits or other business purposes. At September 30, 2021, 92.8%March 31, 2022, 98.8% of our investment portfolio consisted primarily of U.S. Treasury securities. The remainder of our securities portfolio was invested in municipal bonds, U.S. Agency collateralized mortgage obligations and U.S. Agency residential mortgage-backed securities. Because we target a loan-to-deposit ratio in the range of 90% to 100%, we prioritize liquidity over the earnings of our securities portfolio. At September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our loan-to-deposit ratio was 76.7%76.2% due to our significant growth in deposits.  Our securities portfolio represented less than 2%5% of assets. To the extent our securities represent more than 5% of assets, absent an immediate need for liquidity, we anticipate investing excess funds to provide a higher return.

As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the amortized cost of our investment securities totaled $34.9$136.5 million, an increase of $11.7$99.9 million, or 50.5%272.8%, compared to $23.2$36.6 million as of December 31, 2020.2021. The increase in the securities portfolio was due to the purchase of tenfive Treasury securities for $57.5$135.0 million during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021, which was neededMarch 31, 2022, to invest excess funds, replace maturing securities and pledgedpledge to secure public deposits and for other purposes as required or permitted by law, partially offset by $35.0 million in U.S. Treasury maturities and other principal paydowns.  This investment of excess cash into two-year Treasury securities yields 2.15%, compared to 0.38%, in overnight cash at the Federal Reserve.  The Treasury securities will increase income compared to current overnight  rates and will be used as a pledge to secure public deposits.

Our investment portfolio consists of securities classified as available for sale and, to a lesser amount, held to maturity. The carrying values of our investment securities classified as available for sale are adjusted for unrealized gain or loss, and any gain or loss is reported on an after-tax basis as a component of other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.  As of March 31, 2022, our available for sale portfolio has an unrealized loss of $348,000, compared to an unrealized gain of $5,000 as of December 31, 2021.

We held a $2.2 million equity interest in a financial technology company as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which consists of 1.6 million shares of common stock and 873,853 preferred shares.  We elected to account for the investments under ASC 321 Investments – Equity Securities without Readily Determinable Value.  The investment is held at cost minus impairment if any, plus or minus observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issue.  This method should be applied until the investment does not qualify for the measurement election (e.g., if the investment has a readily determinable fair value). We will reassess at each reporting period whether the equity investment without a readily determinable fair value qualifies to be measured at cost minus impairment; there was no change to the value or valuation technique this quarter.  Additionally, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we held $100,000 in corporate equity securities in another technology company which was recorded in other investments on the balance sheet. The equity interest consists of 9,000 shares of stock.   We also held equity indirectly in two other technology companies for $350,000 with the potential for an additional $150,000 in equity investments.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we entered agreements for capital commitments of up to $1.1 million in three separate investment funds designed to help accelerate technology adoption at banks.  As of December 31, 2021, we held $160,000 in


investment funds.  During the three months ended March 31, 2022 we contributed $250,000, bringing our investment funds total to $410,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and our total capital commitment to $1.3 million.

Deposits

We offera varietyof depositproductsthathave a wide range of interestratesand terms,includingdemand, money market, savings, BaaS-brokered deposits and time accounts as well as reciprocalreciprocal deposits. Reciprocal deposits enable us to provide an FDIC insured deposit option to customers that have balances in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.  This service trades our customers’ funds as certificates of deposit or interest bearing demand deposits in increments under the FDIC insured amount to other participating financial institutions and in exchange we receive time deposit or interest bearing demand investments from participating financial institutions in a reciprocal agreement.  We relyprimarilyon competitivepricingpolicies,convenient locations,electronicdeliverychannels (Internet(internet and mobile),and personalizedserviceto attract new deposits and retainexistingdeposits. Additionally, we offer deposit products through our CCBX segment.  Although the CCBX products are similar to the community bank offerings, the CCBX deposit products allow us to offer a broader range of partner specific products, which are often designed to reach specific under-served or under-banked populations served by our CCBX partners.  

Total deposits as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 were $2.22$2.58 billion, an increase of $802.2$212.7 million, or 56.4%9.0%, compared to $1.42$2.36 billion as of December 31, 2020.  The overall increase in total deposits was achieved despite a decrease of $25.4 million in total deposits compared to December 31, 2020, due to the sale of our Freeland branch.2021. The increase in deposits was largely in core deposits, which increased $820.3$211.4 million to $2.15$2.46 billion from $1.33$2.25 billion at December 31, 2020.2021.   The $820.3$211.4 million increase in core deposits is also largely from growth in the CCBX division,segment, which accounted for $543.6$178.8 million of the increase, combined with the initiatives to expand and grow banking relationships with new customers, which accounted for $276.7$32.6 million of the increase.  We define core deposits as all deposits except time deposits and brokered deposits. Additionally, as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 we have access to $331.1$276.4 million in CCBX customer deposits that are currently being transferred from the Bank’s balance sheet to other financial institutions on a daily


basis.  TheDepending on the circumstances of how the Bank could retainretains these deposits for liquidity and funding purposes if needed.  If a portion ofits relationship with the customer, these retained deposits are retained, they wouldcould be classified as brokered deposits, however if the entire available balance is retained, they would be non-brokered deposits.

We focus on growing core deposits and our branch managers, treasury service personnel and lenders work together to grow deposits from existing and new customers.

Included in total deposits is $607.2$899.5 million in deposits derived from CCBX deposit relationships,deposits, an increase of $538.5$183.2 million, or 784.0%25.6%, compared to $68.7$716.3 million as of December 31, 2020.2021.  CCBX customer deposit relationships include deposits with CCBX end customers, operating and non-operating deposit accounts.  The deposits from our CCBX division are predominately classified as noninterest bearing, or NOW and money market accounts, but a portion of such CCBX deposits may be classified as brokered deposits as a result of the relevant relationship agreement.  Currently,During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the majority of CCBX deposits arewere reclassified from noninterest bearing however, as the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee raises interest rates, a majority of these accounts will bear interest and be reclassified to interest bearing deposits once rates exceedbearing.  This is because the current rate exceeds the minimum interest rate set in their respective program agreements, as a result of the program agreement and begin to earn interest.recent  0.25% increase in interest rates by the FOMC.  

Total noninterest bearing deposits as of September 30,March 31, 2022 were $838.0 million, a decrease of $517.9 million, or 38.2%, compared to $1.36 billion as of December 31, 2021. The $517.9 million decrease is primarily the result of reclassifying $690.4 million in CCBX noninterest bearing deposits to interest bearing as a result of the recent 0.25% increase in interest rates by the FOMC, partially offset by growth in CCBX noninterest deposits of $167.1 million and growth in community bank noninterest deposits of $5.5 million.  Noninterest bearing deposits represent 32.5% and 57.4% of total deposits for March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Total interest bearing account balances, excluding time deposits, as of March 31, 2022 were $1.30$1.70 billion, an increase of $704.2$733.6 million, or 118.9%76.1%, compared to $592.3$964.4 million as of December 31, 2020.2021.  The $704.2$733.6 million increase is primarily the result of reclassifying $690.4 million in CCBX noninterest bearing deposits to interest bearing as a result of the recent 0.25% increase in interest rates by the FOMC, combined with CCBX growth in the CCBX division, which accounted for $543.8 million of the increase, and expanding and growing banking relationships with new customers, which accounted for $160.4 million of the increase, including deposit relationships from PPP loans made to noncustomers, who moved their banking relationship to the Bank.  Noninterestinterest bearing deposits represent 58.3%of $16.1 million and 41.7%community bank growth in interest bearing deposits of total deposits for September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Total interest bearingaccountbalances, excluding time deposits,as of September 30, 2021 were $880.4 million,an increaseof $111.0 million,or 14.4%, from$769.4 millionas of December 31, 2020.$27.1 million.  Included in interest bearing account balances is $28.4$75.1 million in BaaS-brokered deposits, an decreaseincrease of $5.1$4.4 million from December 31, 2020.2021. Also included in interest bearing deposits is $5.7$8.8 million in reciprocal deposits.  

Total timedepositbalancesas of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 were $46.7$40.4 million,a decreaseof $12.9$3.1 million,or 21.7%7.1%, from$59.6 $43.5 millionas of December 31, 2020.2021. The decrease is due to the strong increase in core deposits, and our focus on core deposits and letting higher rate deposits run off as they mature.  We have seen competitors increase rates on time deposits, and we have not globally matched their rates in response as we have been able to grow and retain less costly core deposits.

Average deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 were $1.98$2.45 billion, an increase of 50.0%58.6% compared to $1.32$1.55 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Average depositsfor the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $1.77 billion, an increaseof 49.1% compared to $1.18 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The increase in average deposits for both these periods was primarily due to an increase in core deposits, both in noninterest bearing deposits and in low interest rate interest bearing deposits.  Included in this increase is deposit relationships gained from PPP loans made to noncustomers that moved their banking/deposit relationship to the Bank.  Also included in this increase is growth in CCBX and community


bank deposits.  We expect deposits to grow with continued growth in our primary market areas, the increase in commercial lending relationships for which we also seek deposit balances and the results of business development efforts by branch managers, treasury service personnel and lenders.

The average rate paid on total deposits was 0.10%0.09% for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to 0.27%0.17% for the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.  The average rate paid on NOW and money market accounts decreased 2216 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.  The average rate paid on time deposits of less than $100,000 and more than $100,000 decreased 5642 basis points and 66 basis points, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.  The average rate paid on time deposits greater than $100,000 increased 1.41%, due to the recognition of additional interest expense of $130,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 to correct interest on CDs from a previous period.  The average rate paid on savings and BaaS brokered deposits was fairly flat for the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.  The overall lower average rate paid on interest bearing  accounts in the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 is due to the current low interest rate environment resulting from the decreased Fed Funds rate.  Any further changes toThe impact of the rate 0.25% interest rate increase by the FOMC in mid-March 2022 will not be fully realized in our interest expense until second quarter 2022.  Increased Fed Funds rate along with competition are expected to continue to impact future cost of deposits and our pricing strategies.

The averageratepaid on totaldepositswas 0.14% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 0.40% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  The average rate paid on BaaS-brokered deposits decreased 24 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year period, and NOW and money market accounts decreased 39 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year period.  The average rate paid on time deposits of less than $100,000 and more than $100,000 decreased 52 basis points and 73 basis points, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.  The lower average rate paid on interest bearing  accounts in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is due to the current low interest rate environment resulting from the decreased Fed Funds rate. Any further changes to the Fed Funds raterates along with competition are expected to continue to impact future cost of deposits and our pricing strategies.

Uninsured Deposits

The FDIC insures our deposits up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank for each account ownership category.  Deposits that exceed insurance limits are uninsured. At March 31, 2022, deposits totaled $2.58 billion, of which total estimated uninsured deposits were $850.1 million. At March 31, 2021, deposits totaled $1.67 billion, of which total estimated uninsured deposits were $724.9 million.

Borrowings

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

Federal Reserve Bank Line of Credit. The Federal Reserve allows us to borrow against our line of credit through a borrower in custody agreement utilizing the discount window, which is collateralized by certain loans. As of September 30,March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, total borrowing capacity of $21.7$23.6 million  and $21.3$20.8 million, respectively, was available under this arrangement.  As of September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and December 31, 2020, Federal Reserve advances totaled zero.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility. To bolster the effectiveness of the SBA’s PPP loan program, the Federal Reserve supplied liquidity to participating financial institutions through term financing backed by PPP loans to small businesses. The PPP provided loans to small businesses so that they can keep their employees on the payroll and pay for other allowed expenses. If the borrowers meet certain criteria, the loan may be forgiven.  The PPPLF extended credit to eligible financial institutions that originate PPP loans, taking the loans as collateral at face value. The interest rate was 0.35% and as PPP loans were paid down, the borrowing line also had to be paid down.  The borrowing was paid in full in June 2021 and as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, no PPPLF advances were outstanding, compared to $153.7$158.5 million as of DecemberMarch 31, 2020.2021.  PPPLF advances were a new borrowing arrangement beginning in 2020 that had favorable capital treatment and was specific to the PPP loan program.  The last day to take new advances on the PPPLF was July 31, 2021.

Junior Subordinated Debentures. In 2004, we issued $3.6 million in junior subordinated debentures to Coastal (WA) Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”), of which we own all of the outstanding common securities. The Trust used the proceeds from the issuance of its underlying common securities and preferred securities to purchase the debentures issued by the Company. These debentures are the Trust’s only assets and the interest payments from the debentures finance the distributions paid on the preferred securities. The debentures bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the 3-month LIBOR plus 2.10%. The effective rate as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021 was 2.22%2.93% and 2.32%2.30%, respectively. We generally have the right to defer payment of interest on the debentures 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 debentures. During any such extension period, distributions on the Trust’s preferred securities will also be deferred, and our ability to pay dividends on our common stock will be restricted. The Trust’s preferred securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the debentures, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture, subject to Federal Reserve approval. If the debentures are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest. We unconditionally guarantee payment of accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust securities subject to certain exceptions, the redemption price with respect to any Trust securities called for redemption and amounts due if the Trust is liquidated or terminated.


Subordinated Debt. In August 2021, the Company issued a subordinated note in the amount of $25.0 million.  The note matures on September 1, 2031, and bears interest at the rate of 3.375% per year for five years and, thereafter, reprices quarterly beginning September 1, 2026, at a rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus 2.76%.  The five-year 3.375% interest period ends on September 1, 2026.  We may redeem the subordinated note, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, in principal redemption multiples of $1,000, after August 18, 2026, subject to any required regulatory approvals.  Proceeds were used to repay $10.0 million in existing 5.65% interest subordinated debt on August 9, 2021 and $11.5 million was contributed to the Bank as capital during the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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, and operational, legal and reputational risks also could affect the Bank’s liquidity risk profile and are considered in the assessment of liquidity management.  Deposits obtained through our CCBX segment are a significant source of liquidity for us.  If a relationship with a large CCBX partner terminates, the exit of those deposits could have an adverse impact on liquidity. Partner program agreements govern the relationship and are valid for a given period of time.  Prior to exiting, the partner would need to provide us adequate notice as stipulated in the agreement that they were not going to renew the program agreement and intend to move the deposits.  The movement to an alternate BaaS provider is cumbersome and would be over a period of time, which would allow us the opportunity to put alternate liquidity in place; those options are more fully discussed below.  As of March 31, 2022, we have two partners with deposits that are in excess of 10% of total deposits and represent 26% of total deposits.


We continuallymonitorour liquiditypositionto ensurethatour assetsand liabilitiesare managedin a manner to meetallreasonablyforeseeableshort-term,long-termand strategicliquiditydemands.Managementhas establisheda comprehensiveprocessfor identifying,measuring,monitoringand controllingliquidityrisk.

Unlike many industrial companies, substantially all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. However, other operating expenses do reflect general levels of inflation.riskmanagementprocess.

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, 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, commercial, and BaaS deposits, advances from the FHLB and proceeds from the sale of loans. Less commonly used sources of funding include borrowings from the Federal Reserve discount window, draws on established federal funds lines from unaffiliated commercial banks, funds from online rate services, brokered deposits, a one-way buy through an ICS account, and the issuance of debt or equity securities. We also participated in the PPPLF, which provided an additional source of low cost funding, at a 0.35% interest rate, and favorable capital treatment for the PPP loans.  Under the terms of the facility, the borrowings are paid down as the loans are forgiven or paid down by the customer.  In June 2021, we repaid all borrowings under the PPPLF in full, resulting in a zero balance as of September 30, 2021.  The last day to take advances on the PPPLF was JulyMarch 31, 2021.2022.  We believe we have ample liquidity resources to fund future growth and meet other cash needs as necessary and are closely monitoring liquidity in this uncertain economic environment.

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 subordinated note and junior subordinated debentures. The Company’s main source of cash flow has been through equity and debt offerings. The Company has consistently retained a portion of the funds from equity and debt offerings so that is has sufficient funds for its operating and debt costs for the next few years. The Company currently holds $7.1$11.2 million in cash, and uses approximately $1.3 million for debt servicing and operating purposes each year, leaving about $4.5$7.1 million for other purposes after deducting $2.6 million to cover operating purposes for the next two years.years and $1.5 million for existing equity fund commitments.  In addition, the Bank can declare and pay dividends to the Company to meet the Company’s debt and operating expenses. There are statutory and regulatory limitations that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. We believe  that these limitations will not impact the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company to meet ongoing operating needs.  

Additionally, the Bank, as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, has access to $331.1$276.4 million in CCBX customer deposits that are currently being transferred from the Bank’s balance sheet to other financial institutions on a daily basis.  The Bank could retain these deposits for liquidity and funding purposes if needed.   We believe that these limitations will not impact the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to


the Company to meetongoing operating needs. For contingencypurposes,the Company maintains a minimum levelof cash to fund one year’sprojected operatingcash flow needs and the Bank established a minimum liquidity ratioof 5% of assets.Both of these minimum liquidity levelsare on-balancesheetsources.Per policyand the Bank’s liquidity contingencyplan, in event of a liquidity emergency the Bank the Bankcan utilize can utilizewholesalefunds in an amountup to 30% of assets.Since the Bank uses only a smallportionof itsborrowing or wholesale funding capacity, the Bank the Bankhas accessto funds if needed in a liquidity emergency.  

Capital Adequacy

Capital management consists of providing equity and other instruments that qualify as regulatory capital to support current and future operations. Banking regulators view capital levels as important indicators of an institution’s financial soundness. As a general matter, FDIC-insured depository institutions and their holding companies are required to maintain minimum capital levels relative to the amount and types of assets they hold. We are subject to regulatory capital requirements at the bank level. The Company will become subject to regulatory capital requirements if its consolidated assets exceed $3.0 billion or it otherwise becomes ineligible to operate under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement. Currently, the Federal Reserve assesses the capital position of the Company by reviewing its debt-to-equity ratio and assessing the Company's capacity to serve as a source of strength to the Bank.  

 


As of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2020,2021, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable regulatory capital requirements, and the Bank was classified as “well capitalized” for purposes of the Federal Reserve’s prompt corrective action regulations. As we deploy our capital and continue to grow our operations, our regulatory capital levels may decrease depending on our level of earnings. However, we expect to monitor and control our growth in order to remain in compliance with all regulatory capital standards applicable to us.  In addition, the Company maintains an effective registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission that would allow the Company to raise additional capital in an amount up to $150$115.5 million. The Company raised $34.5 million in December 2021 and currently has no immediate plans for raising additional capital under the registration statement.


The following table presents the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios as of the dates presented, as well as the regulatory capital ratios that are required by Federal Reserve regulations to maintain “well-capitalized” status and the regulatory capital ratios that would be required for the Company if we did not operate under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement:

For(1) Represents the undefined maturity of non-maturing deposits, including noninterest bearing demand deposits, interest bearing demand deposits, money market accounts, savings accounts and brokered deposits, which can generally be withdrawn on demand.

We maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents and investment securities to meet short-term cash requirements and the levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, investing and financing activities during any given period.  Cash on hand, 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, commercial, and BaaS deposits, advances from the FHLB and proceeds from the sale of loans. Less commonly used sources of funding include borrowings from the Federal Reserve discount window, draws on established federal funds lines from unaffiliated commercial banks, funds from online rate services, brokered funds, a discussionone-way buy through an ICS account, and the issuance of our borrowings,see “—FinancialCondition—Borrowings” in this section.


We believethatwe willbe able to meetour contractualobligationsas they come due. Adequate cash levelsare expectedthrough profitability,repaymentsfromloans and securities,depositgatheringactivity,accessto borrowing sourcesand periodicloan sales.

Off-BalanceSheet Itemsdebt or equity securities.

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

Our commitments associated with outstanding commitments to extend credit and standby and commercial letters of credit are summarized below. Since commitments associated with commitments to extend credit and letters of credit may expire unused, the amounts shown do not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirements.

As of March 31, 2022 we held $218.7 million in capital call lines, included in commercial and industrial loans, provided to venture capital firms through one of our BaaS clients.  These loans are secured by the capital call rights and are individually underwritten to the Bank’s credit standards and the underwriting is reviewed by the Bank on every line.  

As of March 31, 2022 we had $1.54 billion in commitments to extend credit, compared to $909.6 million as of December 31, 2021.  The $625.5 million increase is largely attributed to an increase of $360.4 million in consumer and other loan commitments, related to CCBX consumer loans, $137.6 million increase in commercial and industrial capital call line commitments, and $133.7 million increase in residential real estate commitments, related to CCBX loans.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn upon, the total commitment amounts disclosed above do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if considered necessary by us, upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.  As of March 31, 2022, $522.1 million in commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancelable, compared to $162.3 million at December 31, 2021.

Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event of nonperformance by the customer, we have rights to the underlying collateral, which can include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and/or marketable securities. Our credit risk associated with issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as the risk involved in extending loan facilities to our customers.


Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies are integral to understanding our results of operations. Our accounting policies are described in greater detail in “Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” of our Form 10-K. We have procedures and processes in place to facilitate making these judgments. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes concerning our critical accounting policies as described in our Form 10-K.

Selected Financial Data

The following table shows the Company’s key performance ratios for the periods indicated.  The table also includes ratios that were adjusted by removing the impact of the PPP loans on loans receivable related measures.  The adjusted ratios are non-GAAP measures.  For more information about non-GAAP financial measures, see “GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section that follows.

CCBX – BaaS Reporting Information

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, $13.1 million was recorded in BaaS fees - credit enhancements related to the provision for loan losses and reserve for unfunded commitments for CCBX partner loans.  Agreements with our CCBX partners provide for a credit enhancement provided by the partner which protects the Bank by absorbing incurred losses.  In accordance with accounting guidance, we estimate and record a provision for probable losses for these CCBX loans.  When the provision for loan losses and provision for unfunded commitments is recorded, a recovery receivable is also recorded on the balance sheet through noninterest income (BaaS fees -credit enhancement) in recognition of the CCBX partner legal commitment to cover losses.  Incurred losses are recorded in the allowance for loan losses, and as the credit enhancement recoveries are received from the CCBX partner, the recovery receivable is relieved.  Agreements with our CCBX partners also provide protection to the Bank from fraud by absorbing incurred fraud losses.  Fraud losses are recorded when incurred as losses in noninterest expense, and the recovery received from the CCBX partner is recorded in noninterest income, resulting in a net impact of zero to the income statement.  Many CCBX partners also pledge a cash reserve account at the Bank which the Bank can collect from when losses occur that is then replenished by the partner on a regular interval.  Although many agreements with our CCBX partners provide for credit enhancements that provide protection to the Bank


from credit and fraud losses by absorbing incurred credit and fraud losses, if our partner is unable to fulfill their contracted obligations beyond their cash reserve account then the bank would be exposed to additional loan losses, as a result of this counterparty risk.  

For CCBX partner loans the Bank records contractual interest earned from the borrower on loans in interest income, adjusted for origination costs which are paid or payable to the CCBX partner.  BaaS loan expense represents the amount paid or payable to partners for credit enhancement and servicing CCBX loans.  To determine net revenue (Net BaaS loan  income) earned from CCBX loan relationships, one takes BaaS loan interest income and deducts BaaS loan expense to arrive at Net BaaS loan income which can be compared to interest income on the Company’s community bank loans.

The following table illustrates how CCBX partner loan income and expenses are recorded in the financial statements:

GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these adjusted measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled adjusted measures reported by other companies.  We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in evaluating our performance and in demonstrating resources available with and without provision for loan losses and income taxes.


 

The following non-GAAP measures aremeasure is presented to illustrate the impact of provision forBaaS loan losses and provision for income taxesexpense on net loan income and returnyield on average assets.CCBX loans.

 

Pre-tax, pre-provision netNet BaaS loan income divided by average CCBX loans is a non-GAAP measure that excludesincludes the impact of provision forBaaS loan lossesexpense on net BaaS loan income and provision for income taxes from net income.the gross yield on CCBX loans. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income.  

Pre-tax, pre-provision return(gross) yield on average assets is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of provision for loan losses and provision for income taxes from return on average assets.  The most directly comparable GAAP measure is return on average assets.CCBX loans.

The following non-GAAP financial measures are presented to illustrate and identify the impact of PPP loans on loans receivable related measures.  By removing these significant items and showing what the results would have been without them, we are providing investors with the information to better compare results with periods that did not have these significant items.  We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our results of operation. These measures include the following:

AllowanceAdjusted allowance for loan losses to loans receivable, excluding PPP loans is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of PPP loans on balance sheet. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is allowance for loan losses to loans receivable.

Yield on loans receivable, excluding PPP loans is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of PPP loans on balance sheet and income statement. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is yield on loans.

Yield on loans receivable, excluding earned fees on all loans and interest on PPP loans is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of all earned fees and PPP loans on balance sheet and income statement. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is yield on loans.

Adjusted Tier 1 leverage capital ratio, excluding PPP loans is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of PPP loans on balance sheet. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is Tier 1 leverage capital ratio.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Our asset liability and funds management policy provides management with the guidelines for effective funds management, and we have established a measurement system for monitoring our net interest rate sensitivity position. We have historically managed our sensitivity position within our established guidelines.

Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, other than those which have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential for economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a decrease in current fair market values. Our objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income. The Federal Open Market Committee raised interest rates 0.25% in mid-March 2022, with additional increases expected in the future.  The impact of this and any future increases will impact financial results.

We manage our exposure to interest rates by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not enter into instruments such as leveraged derivatives, financial options, financial future contracts or forward delivery contracts for the purpose of reducing interest rate risk. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed by the Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”), of the Bank and reviewed by the Asset Liability and Investment Committee of our board of directors in accordance with policies approved by our board of directors. ALCO formulates strategies based on appropriate levels of interest rate risk. In determining the appropriate level of interest rate risk, ALCO considers the impact on earnings and capital on the current outlook on interest rates, potential changes in interest rates, regional economies, liquidity, business strategies and other factors. ALCO meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses, purchase and sale activities, commitments to originate loans and the maturities of investments and borrowings. Additionally, ALCO reviews liquidity, cash flows, maturities of deposits and consumer and commercial deposit activity. Management employs various methodologies to manage interest rate risk including an analysis of relationships between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and interest rate simulations using a model. The Asset Liability and Investment Committee of our board of directors meets regularly to review the Bank’s interest rate risk profile, liquidity position, including contingent liquidity, and investment portfolio.

We use interest rate risk simulation models to test interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and fair value of equity, and the impact of changes in interest rates on other financial metrics. Contractual maturities and re-pricing opportunities of loans are incorporated in the model, as are prepayment assumptions, maturity data and call options within the investment portfolio. Average life of non-maturity deposit accounts are based on historical decay rates and assumptions and are incorporated into the model. The assumptions used are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. 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.  To help ensure the accuracy of the model, we perform a quarterly back test against our actual results.

On a quarterly basis, we run multiple simulations under two different premises of which one is a static balance sheet and the other is a dynamic growth balance sheet. The static balance sheet approach produces results that show the interest risk currently inherent in our balance sheet at that point in time. The dynamic balance sheet includes our projected growth levels going forward and produces results that shows how net income, net interest income, and interest risk change based on our projected growth. These simulations test the impact on net interest income and fair value of equity from changes in market interest rates under various scenarios. Under the static and dynamic approaches, rates are shocked instantaneously and ramped over a 12-month horizon assuming parallel yield curve shifts. Parallel shock scenarios assume instantaneous parallel movements in the yield curve compared to a flat yield curve scenario. Non-parallel simulations are also conducted and involve analysis of interest income and expense under various changes in the shape of the yield curve including a forward curve, flat curve, steepening curve, and an inverted curve. Our internal policy regarding internal rate risk simulations currently specifies that for instantaneous parallel shifts of the yield curve, estimated net income at risk for the subsequent one- and two-year period should not decline by more than 10% for a 100 basis point shift, 15% for a 200 basis point shift, 20% for a 300 basis point shift, and 25% for a 400 basis point shift.

The results illustrate that the Bank is asset sensitive and generally performs better in an increasing interest rate environment. The results are primarily due to behavior of demand, money market and savings deposits during such rate fluctuations. We have found that, historically, interest rates on these deposits change more slowly than changes in the discount and federal funds rates. This assumption is incorporated into the simulation model. The assumptions incorporated into the model are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. 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, the shape of the interest yield curve, and the application and timing of various strategies.

The -100, -200, and -300 basis point change in market interest rates no longer reflects viable interest rate changes as interest rates would have to go negative since the Fed Funds rate target range is set at 0.00%0.25% to 0.25%0.50%.  Until rates increase, these rate shock scenarios may not reflect what may happen to net interest income if interest rates were to go negative.
