Forward-looking Statements

When used in this report and in public stockholder communications, in other documents of Banc of California, Inc. (the Company, we, us and our) filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), or in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases “believe,” “will,” “should,” “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “plans,” “guidance” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. These statements may relate to our future financial performance, strategic plans or objectives, revenue, expense or earnings projections, or other financial items. By their nature, these statements are subject to numerous uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the statements.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected include, but are not limited to, the following:

i. a pending investigation by the SEC may result in adverse findings, reputational damage, the imposition of sanctions, increased costs and other negative consequences;

ii. management time and resources may be diverted to address the pending SEC investigation as well as any related litigation and litigation initiated by stockholders;

iii. the resignation of our former chief executive officer in the first quarter of 2017 might cause a loss of confidence among certain customers who may withdraw their deposits or terminate their business relationships with us, notwithstanding the hiring of our new chief executive officer;

iv. our performance may be adversely affected by the management transition resulting from the resignation of our former chief executive officer, notwithstanding the hiring of our new chief executive officer, and the resignation of our former interim chief financial officer in the second quarter of 2017;

v. risks that the Company’s merger and acquisition transactions may disrupt current plans and operations and lead to difficulties in customer and employee retention, risks that the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to these transactions could be significantly higher than anticipated and risks that the expected revenues, cost savings, synergies and other benefits of these transactions might not be realized to the extent anticipated, within the anticipated timetables, or at all;

vi. the recent disposition of the Banc Home Loans division that occurred during the first quarter of 2017 may adversely impact our revenues and profitability to the extent we are unable to replace its revenues or realize the expected cost savings of this transaction;

vii. risks that funds obtained from capital raising activities will not be utilized efficiently or effectively;

viii. a worsening of current economic conditions, as well as turmoil in the financial markets;

ix. the credit risks of lending activities, which may be affected by deterioration in real estate markets and the financial condition of borrowers, may lead to increased loan and lease delinquencies, losses and nonperforming assets in our loan and lease portfolio, and may result in our allowance for loan and lease losses not being adequate to cover actual losses and require us to materially increase our loan and lease loss reserves;

x. the quality and composition of our securities portfolio;

xi. changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, or in financial markets;

xii. continuation of or changes in the historically low short-term interest rate environment, changes in the levels of general interest rates, volatility in the interest rate environment, the relative differences between short- and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, and our net interest margin and funding sources;

xiii. fluctuations in the demand for loans and leases, the number of unsold homes and other properties and fluctuations in commercial and residential real estate values in our market area;

xiv. our ability to maintain a strong core deposit base or other low cost funding sources necessary to fund our activities;

xv. results of examinations of us by regulatory authorities and the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, limit our business activities, require us to change our business mix, increase our allowance for loan and lease losses, write-down asset values, or increase our capital levels, or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, any of which could adversely affect our liquidity and earnings;

xvi. legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including, without limitation, changes in tax laws and policies and changes in regulatory capital or other rules, as well as additional regulatory burdens that result from our growth to over $10 billion in total assets;

xvii. our ability to control operating costs and expenses;

3

xviii. staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our work force and potential associated charges;

xix. errors in estimates of the fair values of certain of our assets and liabilities, which may result in significant changes in valuation;

xx. the network and computer systems on which we depend could fail or experience a security breach;

xxi. our ability to attract and retain key members of our senior management team;

xxii. costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments;

xxiii. increased competitive pressures among financial services companies;

xxiv. changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits;

xxv. adverse changes in the securities markets;

xxvi. earthquake, fire or other natural disasters affecting the condition of real estate collateral;

xxvii. the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules or regulations or to respond to regulatory actions;

xxviii. the ability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us;

xxix. changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the financial institution regulatory agencies or the Financial Accounting Standards Board or their application to our business, including additional guidance and interpretation on accounting issues and details of the implementation of new accounting methods;

xxx. share price volatility and reputational risks, related to, among other things, speculative trading and certain traders shorting our common shares and attempting to generate negative publicity about us;

xxxi. war or terrorist activities; and

xxxii. other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services and the other risks described in this report and from time to time in other documents that we file with or furnish to the SEC, including, without limitation, the risks described under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and under “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017.

BANC OF CALIFORNIA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

June 30, 2017

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Banc of California, Inc. (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company, we, us and our) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Banc of California, National Association (the Bank), as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company include its then wholly owned subsidiaries.

Nature of Operations: Banc of California, Inc. is a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, headquartered in Santa Ana, California and incorporated under the laws of Maryland. Banc of California, Inc. is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB) and the Bank operates under a national bank charter issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), its primary regulator. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system, and maintains insurance on deposit accounts with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

As of June 30, 2017, the Bank had 35 banking offices, serving Orange, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Santa Barbara counties in California.

Significant Accounting Policies:The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are based upon U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. The Company has not made any significant changes in its critical accounting policies from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC. Refer to Accounting Pronouncements below for discussion of accounting pronouncements adopted in 2017.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X and other SEC rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by GAAP are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed by the Company with the SEC. The December 31, 2016 statement of financial condition presented herein has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC, but does not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. The results of operations for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Banc Home Loans division, which largely represented the Company's Mortgage Banking segment. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-20, the Company determined that the sale of the Banc Home Loans division and certain other mortgage banking related assets and liabilities that will be sold or settled separately within one year met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation and the related operating results and financial condition have been presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements (see Note 2 for additional information). Unless otherwise indicated, information included in these notes to the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) are presented on a consolidated operations basis, which includes results from both continuing and discontinued operations, for all periods presented.

In connection with the sale of its Mortgage Banking segment, the Company reassessed its reportable operating segments. Based on this internal evaluation, the Company determined that all three of its previously disclosed reportable segments, Commercial Banking, Mortgage Banking, and Corporate/Other, are no longer applicable. Accordingly, to better reflect how the Company is now managed and how information is internally reviewed, the Company determined that all services offered by the Company relate to Commercial Banking and, as a result, its only reportable segment is Commercial Banking.

10

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL), reserve for loss on repurchased loans, servicing rights, the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, derivative instruments, purchased credit impaired (PCI) loan discount accretion, and the fair value measurement of financial instruments are particularly subject to change and any such change could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Transfer of Securities Held-To-Maturity to Securities Available-For-Sale: During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company evaluated its securities held-to-maturity and determined that certain securities no longer adhere to the Company’s strategic focus and could be sold or reinvested to potentially improve the Company’s liquidity position or duration profile. Accordingly, the Company was no longer able to assert that it had the intent to hold these securities until maturity. As a result, the Company transferred all $740.9 million of its securities held-to-maturity to securities available-for-sale which resulted in a pre-tax increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $22.0 million. Due to the transfer, the Company’s ability to assert that it has the intent and ability to hold to maturity debt securities will be limited for the foreseeable future.

Incentive Compensation:At December 31, 2016 the Company accrued a liability for estimated discretionary incentive compensation payments to certain employees. The amount paid was less than the accrued liability. Consequently, the Company reversed the excess accrual and recorded a credit to salaries and employee benefits on the consolidated statements of operations of $7.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The reversal, based on new information driven by changes to certain facts and circumstances subsequent to December 31, 2016, was determined to be a change in estimate.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: During the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the following pronouncement applicable to the Company was adopted:

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718):Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This Update was issued as a part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, and intends to improve the accounting for share-based payment transactions. The ASU changes several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including accounting for excess tax benefits and deficiencies, income statement recognition, cash flow classification, forfeitures, and tax withholding requirements. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. See Note 11 for additional information.

NOTE 2 – SALES OF SUBSIDIARY AND BUSINESS UNITS

The Palisades Group Sale

On May 5, 2016, the Company completed the sale of all of its membership interests in The Palisades Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to an entity wholly owned by Stephen Kirch and Jack Macdowell, the then-acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of The Palisades Group, respectively. As part of the sale, The Palisades Group issued to the Company a 10 percent, $5.0 million note due May 5, 2018 (the Note). The Company recognized a gain on sale of subsidiary of $3.7 million on its Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

The following table summarizes the calculation of the gain on sale of The Palisades Group:

	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2016
	(In thousands)
Consideration received (paid)
Liabilities forgiven by The Palisades Group	$	1,862
Liabilities assumed by the Company	(1,078		)
The Note	2,370
Aggregate fair value of consideration received	3,154
Less: net assets sold (carrying amount of The Palisades Group)	(540		)
Gain on sale of The Palisades Group	$	3,694

The Company estimated various potential future cash flow projection scenarios for The Palisades Group and established probability thresholds for each scenario to arrive at a probability-weighted cash flow expectation, which was then discounted to yield a fair value of the Note at sale date of $2.4 million.

On September 28, 2016, the Note was paid in full in cash prior to maturity and the Company recognized an additional gain of $2.8 million, which was included in Other Income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Commercial Equipment Finance Business Sale

On October 27, 2016, the Company sold its Commercial Equipment Finance business unit from its Commercial Banking segment to Hanmi Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanmi Financial Corporation (Hanmi). As part of the transaction, Hanmi acquired $217.2 million of equipment leases diversified across the U.S. with concentrations in California, Georgia and Texas. An additional $25.4 million of equipment leases were transferred during December 2016. Hanmi retained most of the Company’s former Commercial Equipment Finance employees. The Company recorded a gain on sale of business unit of $2.6 million in its Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Banc Home Loans Sale

On March 30, 2017, the Company completed the sale of specific assets related to its Banc Home Loans division to Caliber Home Loans, Inc. (Caliber). The Banc Home Loans division largely represented the Company's Mortgage Banking segment, the activities of which related to originating, servicing, underwriting, funding and selling residential mortgage loans. Assets sold to Caliber included mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) on certain conventional agency residential mortgage loans. The Banc Home Loans division, along with certain other mortgage banking related assets and liabilities that will be sold or settled separately within one year, is classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statements of Operations. Certain components of the Company’s Mortgage Banking segment, including MSRs on certain conventional government single family residential (SFR) mortgage loans that were not sold as part of the Banc Home Loans sale and the repurchase reserves related to previously sold loans, have been classified as continuing operations in the financial statements as they will continue to be part of the Company’s ongoing operations.

The specific assets acquired by Caliber include, among other things, the leases relating to the Company’s dedicated mortgage loan origination offices and rights to certain portions of the Company’s unlocked pipeline of residential mortgage loan applications. Caliber has assumed certain obligations and liabilities of the Company under the acquired leases, and with respect to the employment of transferred employees. The Company received a $25.0 million cash premium payment, in addition to the net book value of certain assets acquired by Caliber, totaling $2.5 million, upon closing of the transaction. Additionally, the Company could receive an earn-out, payable quarterly, based on future performance over the 38 months following completion of the transaction. The Company did not recognize any earn-out during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

12

Caliber retains an option to buy out the future earn-out payable to the Company in exchange for cash consideration of $35.0 million, less the aggregate amount of all earn-out payments made prior to the date on which Caliber makes the payment of the buyout amount. Caliber also purchased the MSRs of $37.8 million on approximately $3.86 billion in unpaid balances of conventional agency mortgage loans, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The transaction resulted in a net gain of disposal of $13.5 million.

The Banc Home Loans division originated conforming SFR mortgage loans and sold these loans in the secondary market. The amount of net revenue on mortgage banking activities was a function of mortgage loans originated for sale and the fair values of these loans and related derivatives. Net revenue on mortgage banking activities included mark to market pricing adjustments on loan commitments and forward sales contracts, and initial capitalized value of MSRs.

The following table summarizes the calculation of the net gain on disposal of discontinued operations:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2017
	(In thousands)
Proceeds from the transaction	$	63,068
Compensation expense related to the transaction	(3,500		)
Other transaction costs	(3,703		)

As such, the Company is deemed to have regained control over those previously transferred assets and has re-recognized them with an offsetting liability recognized in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the Statements of Financial Condition of Discontinued Operations, as a secured borrowing. Because the Company intends to exercise its option to repurchase and sell them within one year, they have been classified as part of discontinued operations.

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value Hierarchy

ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The topic describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

• Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

Securities Available-for-Sale: The fair values of securities available-for-sale are generally determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, the Company primarily employs independent pricing services that utilize pricing models to calculate fair value. Such fair value measurements consider observable data such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and respective terms and conditions for debt instruments. The Company employs procedures to monitor the pricing service's assumptions and establishes processes to challenge the pricing service's valuations that appear unusual or unexpected. Level 2 securities include Small Business Administration (SBA) loan pool securities, U.S. government sponsored enterprise (GSE) and U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities, Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities, non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, and corporate debt securities. When a market is illiquid or there is a lack of transparency around the inputs to valuation, the securities are classified as Level 3 and reliance is placed upon internally developed models, and management judgment and evaluation for valuation. The Company had no securities available-for-sale classified as Level 3 at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

Loans Held-for-Sale, Carried at Fair Value: The fair value of loans held-for-sale is based on commitments outstanding from investors as well as what secondary market investors are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics, except for loans that are repurchased out of Ginnie Mae loan pools that become severely delinquent which are valued based on an internal model that estimates the expected loss the Company will incur on these loans. Therefore, loans held-for-sale subjected to recurring fair value adjustments are classified as Level 2 or, in the case of loans repurchased out of Ginnie Mae loan pools, Level 3. The fair value includes the servicing value of the loans as well as any accrued interest.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities:

Derivative Instruments Related to Mortgage Banking Activities: The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) with prospective residential mortgage borrowers. These commitments are carried at fair value based on the fair value of the underlying mortgage loans which are based on observable market data. The Company adjusts the outstanding IRLCs with prospective borrowers based on an expectation that it will be exercised and the loan will be funded. These commitments are classified as Level 2 in the fair value disclosures, as the valuations are based on market observable inputs. The Company hedges the risk of the overall change in the fair value of loan commitments to borrowers with forward loan sale commitments and trades in to-be-announced (TBA) mortgage-backed securities of GSEs. These forward settling contracts are classified as Level 2, as valuations are based on market observable inputs. Fair values of these derivatives are included assets and liabilities of discontinued operations.

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

15

Foreign Exchange Contracts: The Company offers short-term foreign exchange contracts to its customers to purchase and/or sell foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These products allow customers to hedge the foreign exchange rate risk of their deposits and loans denominated in foreign currencies. In conjunction with these products the Company also enters into offsetting contracts with institutional counterparties to hedge the Company’s foreign exchange rate risk. These back-to-back contracts allow the Company to offer its customers foreign exchange products while minimizing its exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. The fair value of these instruments is determined at each reporting period based on the change in the foreign exchange rate. Given the short-term nature of the contracts, the counterparties’ credit risks are considered nominal and resulted in no adjustments to the valuation of the short-term foreign exchange contracts. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value of these derivative contracts, the valuation of these contracts is classified as Level 2.

Mortgage Servicing Rights: The Company retains servicing on some of its mortgage loans sold for which the Company elected to follow the fair value measurement method for subsequent accounting. The value is based on a third party provider that calculates the present value of the expected net servicing income from the portfolio based on key factors that include interest rates, prepayment assumptions, discount rate and estimated cash flows. Because of the significance of unobservable inputs, these servicing rights are classified as Level 3.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017:

(2) The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out as of the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that causes the transfer

(3) Includes $37.8 million of MSRs sold as a part of discontinued operations for the six month ended June 30, 2017

(4) Includes loans repurchased from Ginnie Mae Loan Pools of discontinued operations, which is included in Assets of Discontinued Operations in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, of $66.7 million and $26.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and $58.3 million and $18.3 million, respectively, for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 in balance at beginning of period, and $52.1 million and $34.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 in balance at end of period

Loans repurchased from Ginnie Mae Loan pools had aggregate unpaid principal balances of $73.8 million and $58.3 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The following table presents, as of the dates indicated, quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements on a recurring basis, other than loans that become severely delinquent and are repurchased out of Ginnie Mae loan pools that were valued based on an estimate of the expected loss the Company will incur on these loans, which was included as Level 3 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	Fair Value		Valuation Technique(s)	Unobservable Input(s)	Range (Weighted Average)
	($ in thousands)
June 30, 2017
Mortgage servicing rights	$	42,109	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate	9.25% to 15.00% (10.98%)

Mortgage servicing rights (1)	$	76,121	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate	9.11% to 15.00% (10.18%)
				Prepayment rate	7.00% to 39.90% (11.84%)

(1) Includes $37.7 million of MSRs of discontinued operations

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s servicing rights include the discount rate and prepayment rate. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's loans repurchased from Ginnie Mae pools at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 included an expected loss rate of 1.55 percent. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results.

Fair Value Option

Loans Held-for-Sale, Carried at Fair Value: The Company elected to measure certain SFR mortgage loans held-for-sale under the fair value option. Electing to measure SFR mortgage loans held-for-sale at fair value reduces certain timing differences and better matches changes in the value of these assets with changes in the value of derivatives used as economic hedges for these assets.

The following table presents the fair value and aggregate principal balance of certain assets, on a consolidated operations basis, under the fair value option:

	June 30, 2017							December 31, 2016
	Fair Value		Unpaid Principal Balance		Difference			Fair Value		Unpaid Principal Balance		Difference
	(In thousands)
Loans held-for-sale, carried at fair value in continuing operations:
Total loans	$	21,468	$	21,748	$	(280	)	$	10,636	$	10,606	$	30
Nonaccrual loans	17,935		18,201		(266		)	—		—		—

Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing	—		—		—			—		—		—

The assets and liabilities accounted for under the fair value option are initially measured at fair value. Gains and losses from initial measurement and subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. The following table presents changes in fair value related to initial measurement and subsequent changes in fair value included in earnings for these assets and liabilities measured at fair value for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016

Net revenue on mortgage banking activities (discontinued operations)	2,459		14,941		2,373		14,976

Changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk were insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Interest income on loans held-for-sale under the fair value option is measured based on the contractual interest rate and reported in Loans and Leases, including Fees under Interest and Dividend Income and Income from Discontinued Operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Securities Held-to-Maturity: Investment securities that the Company has the ability and the intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. Investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. The fair values of securities held-to-maturity are generally determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, the Company employs independent pricing services that utilize pricing models to calculate fair value. Such fair value measurements consider observable data such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and respective terms and conditions for debt instruments (Level 2). The Company employs procedures to monitor the pricing service's assumptions and establishes processes to challenge the pricing service's valuations that appear unusual or unexpected. When a market is illiquid or there is a lack of transparency around the inputs to valuation, the securities are classified as Level 3 and reliance is placed upon internally developed models, and management judgment and evaluation for valuation. Only securities held-to-maturity with other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) are considered to be carried at fair value. The Company did not have any securities classified as held-to-maturity at June 30, 2017, and the Company did not have any OTTI on securities held-to-maturity at December 31, 2016.

Impaired Loans and Leases: The fair value of impaired loans and leases with specific allocations of the ALLL based on collateral values is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Loans Held-for-Sale, Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value:The Company records non-conforming jumbo mortgage loans held-for-sale and certain non-residential mortgage loans held-of-sale at the lower of cost or fair value, on an aggregate basis. The Company obtains fair values from a third party independent valuation service provider. Loans held-for-sale accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value are considered to be recognized at fair value when they are recorded at below cost, on an aggregate basis, and are classified as Level 2.

SBA Servicing Assets: SBA servicing assets represent the value associated with servicing SBA loans that have been sold. The fair value for SBA servicing assets is determined through discounted cash flow analysis and utilizes discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. The fair market valuation is performed on a quarterly basis for SBA servicing assets. SBA servicing assets are accounted for at the lower of cost or market value and considered to be recognized at fair value when they are recorded at below cost and are classified as Level 3.

Other Real Estate Owned Assets: Other real estate owned assets (OREO) are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value at the time of foreclosure. The fair value of other real estate owned assets is generally based on recent real estate appraisals adjusted for estimated selling costs. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments may be significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Only OREO with a valuation allowance are considered to be carried at fair value. The Company recorded valuation allowance expense for OREO of $0 and $9 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $9 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 in All Other Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

22

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Time Deposits in Financial Institutions: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and time deposits in financial institutions approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments (Level 1).

Federal Home Loan Bank and Other Bank Stock: Federal Home Loan Bank and other bank stock is recorded at cost. Ownership of FHLB stock is restricted to member banks, and purchases and sales of these securities are at par value with the issuer (Level 2).

Securities Held-to-Maturity: Investment securities that the Company has the ability and the intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. Investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at cost. The fair values of securities held-to-maturity are generally determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, the Company employs independent pricing services that utilize pricing models to calculate fair value. Such fair value measurements consider observable data such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and respective terms and conditions for debt instruments (Level 2). The Company employs procedures to monitor the pricing service's assumptions and establishes processes to challenge the pricing service's valuations that appear unusual or unexpected. When a market is illiquid or there is a lack of transparency around the inputs to valuation, the securities are classified as Level 3 and reliance is placed upon internally developed models, and management judgment and evaluation for valuation.

Loans and Leases Receivable, Net of ALLL:The fair value of loans and leases receivable is estimated based on the discounted cash flow approach. The discount rate was derived from the associated yield curve plus spreads and reflects the rates offered by the Bank for loans with similar financial characteristics. Yield curves are constructed by product and payment types. These rates could be different from what other financial institutions could offer for these loans. Additionally, the fair value of our loans may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such loans and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize (Level 3). This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.

Accrued Interest Receivable:The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value (Level 1).

Deposits:The fair value of deposits is estimated based on discounted cash flows. The cash flows for non-maturity deposits, including savings accounts and money market checking, are estimated based on their historical decaying experiences. The discount rate used for fair valuation is based on interest rates currently being offered by the Bank on comparable deposits as to amount and term (Level 3).

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank, Securities Sold under Repurchase Agreements, and Other Borrowings: The fair values of advances from FHLB, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and other borrowings are estimated based on the discounted cash flows approach. The discount rate was derived from the current market rates for borrowings with similar remaining maturities (Level 2).

Long Term Debt:Fair value of long term debt is determined by observable data such as market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, credit information, and respective terms and conditions for debt instruments (Level 2).

Accrued Interest Payable: The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value (Level 1).

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company evaluated its securities held-to-maturity and determined that certain securities no longer adhere to the Company’s strategic focus and could be sold or reinvested to potentially improve the Company’s liquidity position or duration profile. Accordingly, the Company was no longer able to assert that it had the intent to hold these securities until maturity. As a result, the Company transferred all $740.9 million of its securities held-to-maturity to securities available-for-sale which resulted in a pre-tax increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $22.0 million. Due to the transfer, the Company’s ability to assert that it has the intent and ability to hold to maturity debt securities will be limited for the foreseeable future.

The following table presents amortized cost and fair value of the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio by expected maturity. In the case of mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, and SBA loan pool securities, expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers generally have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. For that reason, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, and SBA loan pool securities are not included in the maturity categories.

The Company did not record OTTI for investment securities for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 or 2016. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio consisted of 223 securities, 61 of which were in an unrealized loss position. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s securities available-for-sale portfolio consisted of 161 securities, 59 of which were in an unrealized loss position and securities held-to-maturity consisted of 87 securities, 15 of which were in an unrealized loss position.

The Company monitors its securities portfolio to ensure it has adequate credit support. As of June 30, 2017, the Company believed there was no OTTI and did not have the intent to sell these securities and, for securities with fair value below amortized cost at June 30, 2017, it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. The Company considers the lowest credit rating for identification of potential OTTI. As of June 30, 2017, all of the Company's investment securities in an unrealized loss position received an investment grade credit rating.

Non-Traditional Mortgage Loans

The Company’s NTM portfolio is comprised of three interest only products: Green Account Loans (Green Loans), fixed or adjustable rate hybrid interest only mortgage (Interest Only) loans and a small number of additional loans with the potential for negative amortization. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the NTM loans totaled $773.0 million, or 13.0 percent of total loans and leases, and $885.1 million, or 14.7 percent of total loans and leases, respectively. The total NTM portfolio decreased by $112.1 million, or 12.7 percent, during the six months endedJune 30, 2017.

The following table presents the composition of the NTM portfolio as of the dates indicated:

Green Loans

Green Loans are SFR first and second mortgage lines of credit with a linked checking account that allows all types of deposits and withdrawals to be performed. The loans are generally interest only with a 15-year balloon payment due at maturity. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Green Loans totaled $86.0 million and $91.0 million, respectively. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, none of the Green Loans were non-performing. As a result of their unique payment feature, Green Loans possess higher credit risk due to the potential for negative amortization; however, management believes the risk is mitigated through the Company’s loan terms and underwriting standards, including its policies on loan-to-value (LTV) ratios and the Company’s contractual ability to curtail loans when the value of the underlying collateral declines. The Company discontinued origination of the Green Loan products in 2011.

Interest Only Loans

Interest only loans are primarily SFR first mortgage loans with payment features that allow interest only payments in initial periods before converting to a fully amortizing loan. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, interest only loans totaled $683.2 million and $784.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $0 and $467 thousand of the interest only loans were non-performing, respectively.

Loans with the Potential for Negative Amortization

Negative amortization loans other than Green Loans totaled $3.8 million and $9.8 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company discontinued origination of negative amortization loans in 2007. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, none of the loans that had the potential for negative amortization were non-performing. These loans pose a potentially higher credit risk because of the lack of principal amortization and potential for negative amortization; however, management believes the risk is mitigated through the loan terms and underwriting standards, including the Company’s policies on LTV ratios.

27

Risk Management of Non-Traditional Mortgages

The Company has determined that significant performance indicators for NTMs are LTV ratios and Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) scores. Accordingly, the Company manages credit risk in the NTM portfolio through periodic review of the loan portfolio that includes refreshing FICO scores on the Green Loans and other home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), as needed in conjunction with portfolio management, and ordering third party automated valuation models (AVMs). The loan review is designed to provide a method of identifying borrowers who may be experiencing financial difficulty before they actually fail to make a loan payment. Upon receipt of the updated FICO scores, an exception report is run to identify loans with a decrease in FICO score of 10 percent or more and/or a resulting FICO score of 620 or less. The loans are then further analyzed to determine if the risk rating should be downgraded, which will increase the reserves the Company will establish for potential losses. A report of the periodic loan review is published and regularly monitored.

As these loans are revolving lines of credit, the Company, based on the loan agreement and loan covenants of the particular loan, as well as applicable rules and regulations, could suspend the borrowing privileges or reduce the credit limit at any time the Company reasonably believes that the borrower will be unable to fulfill their repayment obligations under the agreement or certain other conditions are met. In many cases, the decrease in FICO score is the first indication that the borrower may have difficulty in making their future payment obligations.

The Company proactively manages the NTM portfolio by performing detailed analyses on the portfolio. The Company’s Internal Asset Review Committee (IARC) conducts meetings on at least a quarterly basis to review the loans classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful and determines whether a suspension or reduction in credit limit is warranted. If a line has been suspended and the borrower would like to have their credit privileges reinstated, they would need to provide updated financials showing their ability to meet their payment obligations.

On the interest only loans, the Company projects future payment changes to determine if there will be a material increase in the required payment and then monitors the loans for possible delinquency. Individual loans are monitored for possible downgrading of risk rating.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The Company has established credit risk management processes that include regular management review of the loan and lease portfolio to identify problem loans and leases. During the ordinary course of business, management becomes aware of borrowers and lessees that may not be able to meet the contractual requirements of the loan and lease agreements. Such loans and leases are subject to increased monitoring. Consideration is given to placing the loan or lease on non-accrual status, assessing the need for additional ALLL, and partial or full charge-off. The Company maintains the ALLL at a level that is considered adequate to cover the estimated and known inherent risks in the loan and lease portfolio.

The Company also maintains a separate reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that is considered adequate to cover the estimated and known inherent risks. The probability of usage of the unfunded loan commitments and credit risk factors determined based on outstanding loan balance of the same customer or outstanding loans that share similar credit risk exposure are used to determine the adequacy of the reserve. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was $4.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

The credit risk monitoring system is designed to identify impaired and potential problem loans, and to permit periodic evaluation of impairment and the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses in a timely manner. In addition, the Board of Directors of the Bank has adopted a credit policy that includes a credit review and control system which it believes should be effective in ensuring that the Company maintains an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses. The Board of Directors also provides oversight and guidance for management’s allowance evaluation process. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company, as part of its continuous evaluation of the ALLL methodology and assumptions, determined it appropriate to change from a rolling 28-quarter look-back period to a pegged 36-quarter look-back period. The Company believes that an extended period of observed credit loss stability warranted the review of a longer historical period that captured a full credit cycle. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2017, the Company's look-back-period was extended to 37-quarters. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company further enhanced the methodology of measuring qualitative reserves and updated loan segmentation. These updates were designed to be more systematic, transparent, and repeatable. These updates did not have a material impact.

The determination of the amount of the ALLL and the provision for loan and lease losses is based on management’s current judgment about the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio and considers known relevant internal and external factors that affect collectability when determining the appropriate level for the ALLL. Additions to the ALLL are made by charges to the provision for loan and lease losses. Identified credit exposures that are determined to be uncollectible are charged off against the ALLL. Recoveries of previously charged off amounts, if any, are credited to the ALLL.

The following table presents a summary of activity in the ALLL for the periods indicated:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A modification of a loan constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) when the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. The concessions may be granted in various forms, including reduction in the stated interest rate, reduction in the amount of principal amortization, forgiveness of a portion of a loan balance or accrued interest, or extension of the maturity date. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy.

TDR loans consist of the following as of the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2017						December 31, 2016
	NTM Loans		Traditional Loans		Total		NTM Loans		Traditional Loans		Total

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans and leases into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company performs historical loss analysis that is combined with a comprehensive loan or lease to value analysis to analyze the associated risks in the current loan and lease portfolio. The Company analyzes loans and leases individually by classifying the loans and leases as to credit risk. This analysis includes all loans and leases delinquent over 60 days and non-homogeneous loans and leases such as commercial and commercial real estate loans and leases. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass: Loans and leases classified as pass are in compliance in all respects with the Bank’s credit policy and regulatory requirements, and do not exhibit any potential or defined weakness as defined under “Special Mention”, “Substandard” or “Doubtful”.

Special Mention: Loans and leases classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or lease or of the Company’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard: Loans and leases classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans and leases so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

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

Not-Rated: When accrual of income on a pool of PCI loans with common risk characteristics is appropriate in accordance with ASC 310-30, individual loans in those pools are not risk-rated. The credit criteria evaluated are FICO scores, LTV ratios, delinquency, and actual cash flows versus expected cash flows of the loan pools.

Loans and leases not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans and leases.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company transferred seasoned SFR mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance and aggregate carrying value of $168.3 million and $147.9 million, respectively, to loans held-for-sale in order to improve the credit quality of the loan portfolio and provide additional liquidity. The Company transferred these loans at lower of cost or fair value and recorded a fair value adjustment of $1.8 million against its ALLL. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of these loans was $146.1 million. This transfer included PCI loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance and aggregate carrying value of $147.5 million and $128.4 million, respectively, and recorded a fair value adjustment of $274 thousand. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of transferred PCI loans was $128.1 million.

NOTE 6 – SERVICING RIGHTS

The Company retains MSRs from certain of its sales of residential mortgage loans. MSRs on residential mortgage loans are reported at fair value. Income earned by the Company on its MSRs is derived primarily from contractually specified mortgage servicing fees and late fees, net of curtailment costs and third party subservicing costs. The Company retains servicing rights in connection with its SBA loan operations, which are measured using the amortization method.

On a consolidated operations basis, total income (loss) from servicing rights was $132 thousand and $(3.3) million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $4.4 million and $(8.6) million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company recognized losses on the fair value and runoff of servicing rights of $4.5 million and $8.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $6.4 million and $18.7 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company recognized servicing fees of $4.6 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $10.8 million and $10.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These amounts are reported in Loan Servicing Income (Loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into a flow-agreement establishing general terms for the purchase and sale to a third party MSR investor in connection with residential mortgage loan sales to GSEs. The flow-agreement allowed the Company to sell its MSRs to a third party MSR investor contemporaneous with the Company’s sales of its servicing retained residential mortgages to the GSEs. Accordingly, entering into the flow-agreement reduced the impact of volatility associated with the Company's MSRs by allowing the Company to sell its MSRs immediately, thus reducing the Company's exposure to market and other conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company suspended sales of MSRs under the flow-agreement. The Company does not expect to resume sales under the flow-agreement, as the Company has discontinued its Mortgage Banking segment operations.

The following table presents a composition of servicing rights, on a consolidated operations basis, as of the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(In thousands)
Mortgage servicing rights, at fair value	$	42,109	$	76,121
SBA servicing rights, at amortized cost	1,725		1,496
Total	$	43,834	$	77,617

Mortgage loans sold with servicing retained are not reported as assets and are subserviced by a third party vendor. The unpaid principal balance of these loans at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $4.40 billion and $7.58 billion, respectively. Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with serviced loans were $25.5 million and $34.2 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The reductions in these balances were principally driven by the sale of $37.8 million of MSRs during the three months ended March 31, 2017 recognized as discontinued operations.

NOTE 9 – FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS

At June 30, 2017, $200.0 million of the Bank's advances from the FHLB were fixed-rate and had interest rates ranging from 0.86 percent to 3.00 percent with a weighted average interest rate of 2.08 percent, and $670.0 million of the Bank’s advances from the FHLB were variable-rate and had a weighted average interest rate of 1.07 percent. At December 31, 2016, $150.0 million of the Bank’s advances from the FHLB were fixed-rate and had interest rates ranging from 0.69 percent to 1.61 percent with a weighted average interest rate of 1.02 percent, and $340.0 million of the Bank’s advances from the FHLB were variable-rate and had a weighted average interest rate of 0.52 percent.

Each advance is payable at its maturity date. Advances paid early are subject to a prepayment penalty. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank’s advances from the FHLB were collateralized by certain real estate loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $2.51 billion and $3.27 billion, respectively, and securities with carrying values of $422.8 million and $321.0 million, respectively. The Bank’s investment in capital stock of the FHLB of San Francisco totaled $36.6 million and $41.9 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Based on this collateral, the Bank's financing availability, and the Bank’s holdings of FHLB stock, the Bank was eligible to borrow an additional $1.36 billion at June 30, 2017.

The Bank maintained a line of credit of $187.3 million from the Federal Reserve Discount Window, to which the Bank pledged securities with a carrying value of $208.2 million with no outstanding borrowings at June 30, 2017. The Bank maintained available unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks totaling $210.0 million at June 30, 2017.

The Bank also maintained repurchase agreements and had an outstanding amount of $53.2 million with a weighted average interest rate of 2.12 percent at June 30, 2017. The interest rates are fixed for the term of the agreements, with interest rates ranging from 2.05 percent to 2.21 percent. All outstanding repurchase agreements are short-term in nature with original maturities of 30 days or less. The Company did not have any outstanding securities sold under agreements to repurchase at December 31, 2016. These transactions are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and recorded at the amounts at which the securities were sold. The Company may have to provide additional collateral for the repurchase agreements, as necessary. The underlying collateral pledged for the repurchase agreements consists of collateralized loan obligations with a fair value of $35.2 million and commercial mortgage-backed securities of $26.2 million at June 30, 2017. Availabilities and terms on repurchase agreements are subject to the counterparties' discretion and pledging additional investment securities.

On June 30, 2017, the Company voluntarily terminated a line of credit of $75.0 million that was maintained at the holding company level with an unaffiliated financial institution. The line had a maturity date of July 17, 2017 and a floating interest rate equal to a LIBOR rate plus 2.25 percent or a prime rate. The Company had $50.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the line, which were repaid in connection with the termination of the line. The proceeds of the line were used for working capital purposes.

NOTE 10 – LONG TERM DEBT

Senior Notes

On April 23, 2012, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $33.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.50 percent Senior Notes due April 15, 2020 (the Senior Notes I) in an underwritten public offering at a price to the public of $25.00 per Senior Note I. Net proceeds after discounts were approximately $31.7 million.

On December 6, 2012, the Company completed the issuance and sale of an additional $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes I in an underwritten public offering at a price to the public of $25.00 per Senior Note I, plus accrued interest from October 15, 2012. Net proceeds after discounts, including a full exercise of the $6.8 million underwriters’ overallotment option on December 7, 2012, were approximately $50.1 million.

On April 6, 2015, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.25 percent Senior Notes due April 15, 2025 (the Senior Notes II, together with the Senior Notes I, the Senior Notes). Net proceeds after discounts were approximately $172.8 million.

The Senior Notes were issued under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of April 23, 2012 (the Base Indenture), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 23, 2012 for the Senior Notes I, and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 6, 2015 for the Senior Notes II (the Supplemental Indentures and together with the Base Indenture, the Indenture), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

On April 15, 2016, the Company completed the redemption of all of its outstanding Senior Notes I at a redemption price of 100 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. In connection with this transaction, the Company recognized a debt redemption cost of $2.7 million in All Other Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Senior Notes II are the Company’s senior unsecured debt obligations and rank equally with all of the Company’s other present and future unsecured unsubordinated obligations. The Company makes interest payments on the Senior Notes II semi-annually in arrears.

The Senior Notes II will mature on April 15, 2025. The Company may, at its option, on or after January 15, 2025 (i.e., 90 days prior to the maturity date of the Senior Notes II), redeem the Senior Notes II in whole at any time or in part from time to time, in each case on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice. The Senior Notes II will be redeemable at a redemption price equal to 100 percent of the principal amount of the Senior Notes II to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

The Indenture contains several covenants which, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability and the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to dispose of or incur liens on the voting stock of certain subsidiaries and also contains customary events of default.

Tangible Equity Units – Amortizing Notes

On May 21, 2014, the Company issued and sold $69.0 million of 8.00 percent tangible equity units (TEUs) in an underwritten public offering. A total of 1,380,000 TEUs were issued, including 180,000 TEUs issued to the underwriter upon exercise of its overallotment option, with each TEU having a stated amount of $50.00. Each TEU was comprised of (i) a prepaid stock purchase contract (each a Purchase Contract) settled by delivery of a specified number of shares of Company Common Stock and (ii) a junior subordinated amortizing note due May 15, 2017 (each an Amortizing Note) that had an initial principal amount of $10.604556 per Amortizing Note, bore interest at a rate of 7.50 percent per annum and had a final installment payment date of May 15, 2017. The Company had the right to defer installment payments on the Amortizing Notes at any time and from time to time, subject to certain restrictions, so long as such deferral period did not extend beyond May 15, 2019; the Company did not exercise this right.

The Purchase Contracts and Amortizing Notes were accounted for separately. The Purchase Contract component of the TEUs was recorded in Additional Paid in Capital in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Amortizing Note component was recorded in Long Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The relative fair values of the Amortizing Notes and Purchase Contracts were estimated to be approximately $14.6 million and $54.4 million, respectively, at the date of issuance. Total issuance costs associated with the TEUs were $4.0 million (including the underwriter discount of $3.3 million), of which $857 thousand was allocated to the debt component and $3.2 million was allocated to the equity component of the TEUs. The portion of the issuance costs allocated to the debt component of the TEUs was amortized over the term of the Amortizing Notes. On May 15, 2017, the Company made the final installment payment on the Amortizing Notes and all Purchase Contracts that had not previously been settled were settled. See Note 15 for additional information.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, income tax (benefit) expense, on a consolidated operations basis, was $(14.9) million and $18.3 million, respectively, and the effective tax rate was 570.3 percent and 40.8 percent, respectively. For the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, income tax (benefit) expense, on a consolidated operations basis, was $(15.8) million and $31.5 million, respectively, and the effective tax rate was (115.9) percent and 40.6 percent, respectively. The Company recognized income tax benefits for the 2017 periods due mainly to the recognition of year-to-date tax credits from the investments in alternative energy partnerships of $15.7 million and $24.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017. The Company uses the flow-through income statement method to account for the investment tax credits earned on the solar investments. Under this method, the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense and the initial book-tax difference in the basis of the investments are recognized as additional tax expense in the year they are earned.

The Company accounts for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon temporary differences between the amounts for financial reporting purposes and tax basis of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management will continue to evaluate both positive and negative evidence on a quarterly basis, including the existence of any cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years, the amount of taxes paid in available carry-back years, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Based on this analysis, management determined that it was more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets would be realized; therefore, no valuation allowance was provided against the net deferred tax assets of $9.5 million and $10.0 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The decrease was mainly due to an increase of $12.8 million in deferred tax liabilities from the increase of unrealized gain on securities available-for-sale and a decrease of $7.2 million in deferred tax assets from reversal of bonus accrual, partially offset by an increase of $19.5 million in deferred tax assets from the sale of discontinued operations.

ASC 740-10-25 relates to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a threshold and a measurement process for recognizing in the financial statements a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties. In the event the Company is assessed interest and/or penalties by federal or state tax authorities, such amounts will be classified in the consolidated financial statements as income tax expense.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. Federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to the assessment of U.S. federal income tax for years before 2013.The statute of limitations for the assessment of California Franchise taxes has expired for tax years before 2012 (other state income and franchise tax statutes of limitations vary by state).

The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 during the three months ended March 31, 2017. As a result of the adoption, the Company recorded $1.1 million of income tax benefits for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 related to excess tax benefits from stock compensation. Prior to 2017, such excess tax benefits were generally recorded directly in stockholders’ equity. This new accounting standard may potentially increase the volatility in the Company’s effective tax rates.

NOTE 12 – RESERVE FOR LOSS ON REPURCHASED LOANS

The Company records provisions to the representation and warranty reserve representing its initial estimate of losses on mortgage repurchases or loss reimbursements. Provisions added to the reserve for loss on repurchased loans are initially recorded against net revenue on mortgage banking activities at the time of sale, and any subsequent change in the provision is then recorded under non-interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an increase or decrease to provision for loan repurchases.

Total provision for loan repurchases was $270 thousand and $851 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $787 thousand and $1.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Of these total provisions for loan repurchases, the Company recorded an initial provision for loan repurchases of $673 thousand and $992 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.7 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded subsequent reductions in the provision of $403 thousand and $141 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $728 thousand and $500 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In addition to the reserve for losses on repurchased loans at June 30, 2017, the Company may receive repurchase demands in future periods that could be material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company believes that all known or probable and estimable demands were adequately reserved for at June 30, 2017.

NOTE 13 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses derivative instruments and other risk management techniques to reduce its exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates in accordance with its risk management policies.

Derivative Instruments Related to Mortgage Banking Activities: In connection with mortgage banking activities, if interest rates increase, the value of the Company’s loan commitments to borrowers and mortgage loans held-for-sale are adversely impacted. The Company attempts to economically hedge the risk of the overall change in the fair value of loan commitments to borrowers and mortgage loans held-for-sale with forward loan sale contracts and TBA mortgage-backed securities trades. Forward contracts on loan sale commitments, TBA mortgage-based securities trades, and loan commitments to borrowers are non-designated derivative instruments and the gains and losses resulting from these derivative instruments are included in Net Revenue on Mortgage Banking Activities in the Statement of Operations of discontinued operations. The fair value of resulting derivative assets and liabilities are included in Other Assets and Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities, respectively, in the Statement of Financial Condition of discontinued operations.

The net losses relating to these derivative instruments used for mortgage banking activities, which were included in Net Revenue on Mortgage Banking Activities in the Statement of Operations of discontinued operations, were $12.0 million and $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $11.7 million and $11.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Interest Rate Swaps on Deposits and Other Borrowings: On September 30, 2013 and January 30, 2015, the Company entered into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest-rate swap contracts for the notional amounts of $50.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively, with maturity dates of September 27, 2018 and January 30, 2022, respectively. These swap contracts were entered into with institutional counterparties to hedge against variability in cash flows attributable to interest rate risk caused by changes in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate on the Company’s ongoing LIBOR based variable rate deposits and borrowings. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company terminated all of its interest rate swaps, which had an aggregate notional amount of $75.0 million.

49

Interest Rate Swaps and Caps on Loans:The Company offers interest rate swap and cap products to certain loan customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. The Company originates a variable rate loan and enters into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap with the customer. The Company also enters into an offsetting swap with a correspondent bank. These back-to-back agreements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to originate a variable rate loan, while providing a contract for fixed interest payments for the customer. The net cash flow for the Company is equal to the interest income received from a variable rate loan originated with the customer. These swaps and caps are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in Other Assets and Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The changes in fair value are recorded in Other Income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, changes in fair value recorded through Other Income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations were insignificant.

Foreign Exchange Contracts: The Company offers short-term foreign exchange contracts to its customers to purchase and/or sell foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These products allow customers to hedge the foreign exchange rate risk of their deposits and loans denominated in foreign currencies. In conjunction with these products the Company also enters into offsetting contracts with institutional counterparties to hedge the Company’s foreign exchange rate risk. These back-to-back contracts allow the Company to offer its customers foreign exchange products while minimizing its exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These foreign exchange contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in Other Assets and Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. At June 30, 2017, the Company had no outstanding foreign exchange contracts.

The following table presents the notional amount and fair value of derivative instruments included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of the dates indicated. Note 3 contains further disclosures pertaining to the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives.

(1) Derivative instruments related to mortgage banking activities (discontinued operations).

The Company has entered into agreements with counterparty financial institutions, which include master netting agreements that provide for the net settlement of all contracts with a single counterparty in the event of default. However, the Company elected to account for all derivatives with counterparty institutions on a gross basis. Due to clearinghouse rule changes, beginning January 1, 2017, variation margin payments are treated as settlements of derivative exposure rather than as collateral.

NOTE 14 – EMPLOYEE STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company issues stock-based compensation awards to its directors and employees from the Company's 2013 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (2013 Omnibus Plan).

As of June 30, 2017, based on the number of shares then registered for issuance under the 2013 Omnibus Plan, 1,178,138 shares were available for future awards.

The Company maintains the Banc of California Capital and Liquidity Enhancement Employee Compensation Trust (the SECT) to fund future employee stock compensation and benefit obligations of the Company. There has been no shares funded out of the SECT as of June 30, 2017. See Note 15 for additional information.

Stock Appreciation Rights

On August 21, 2012, the Company granted to Steven A. Sugarman, its then- (now former) chief executive officer a ten-year stock appreciation right (SAR) with respect to 500,000 shares (Initial SAR) of the Company’s common stock with a base price of $12.12 per share with one-third of the Initial SAR being vested on the grant date and the remaining amount vesting over a period of 2 years. The Initial SAR entitles Mr. Sugarman to dividend equivalent rights and originally contained an anti-dilution provision pursuant to which additional SARs (Additional SARs) were issued to Mr. Sugarman upon certain stock issuances by the Company, as described below. On March 24, 2016, concurrent with entering into a new employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Sugarman entered into a letter agreement that eliminated this anti-dilution provision of the Initial SAR. Under the terms of the March 24, 2016 letter agreement, in consideration of the removal of the anti-dilution provision of the Initial SAR, the Company granted Mr. Sugarman a onetime performance based restricted stock award with an aggregate grant date fair market value of $5.0 million, which would vest in full on March 24, 2017, but was also subject to restrictions on sale or transfer through March 24, 2021.

52

In connection with Mr. Sugarman’s resignation as the Company’s chief executive officer on January 23, 2017, all unvested equity awards (including any unvested SARs) immediately vested and became free of all restrictions. In addition, the SARs continued (and continue) to remain exercisable for their full terms, with dividend equivalent rights of the SARs also continuing in effect during their full terms.

As described more fully in the SAR agreement, the original anti-dilution provision of the Initial SAR did not apply to certain issuances of the Company’s common stock for compensatory purposes, but did apply to certain other issuances of the Company’s common stock, including the issuances of common stock to raise capital. Pursuant to this anti-dilution provision, the Company issued Additional SARs to the former chief executive officer with a base price determined as of each date of issuance, but otherwise with the same terms and conditions as the Initial SAR, except for an Additional SAR granted relating to a public offering of the Company’s TEUs on May 21, 2014 that has different terms (Additional TEU SAR).

Regarding the Additional TEU SAR, the TEU contained a prepaid stock purchase contract (Purchase Contract) that could be settled in shares of the Company’s voting common stock based on a maximum settlement rate (subject to adjustment) and a minimum settlement rate (subject to adjustment) as more fully described under Note 15. The Additional TEU SAR was calculated using the initial maximum settlement rate and, therefore, the number of shares underlying the Additional TEU SAR was subject to adjustment and forfeiture if the aggregate number of shares of stock issued in settlement of any single Purchase Contract was less than the initial maximum settlement rate. By its original terms, the Additional TEU SAR was to vest in full on May 15, 2017 or accelerate in vesting upon early settlement of a Purchase Contract at the holders' option, and until it vested, the Additional TEU SAR was to have no dividend equivalent rights and the shares underlying the Additional TEU SAR were subject to forfeiture.

NOTE 15 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Warrants

On November 1, 2010, the Company issued warrants to TCW Shared Opportunity Fund V, L.P. for up to 240,000 shares of non-voting common stock at an original exercise price of $11.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments to the number of shares underlying the warrants as well as certain adjustments to the warrant exercise price as applicable. These warrants were exercisable from the date of original issuance through November 1, 2015. On August 3, 2015, these warrants were exercised in full using a cashless (net) exercise, resulting in a net number of shares of non-voting common stock issued in the aggregate of 70,690, which were immediately thereafter exchanged for an aggregate of 70,690 shares of voting common stock. Based on automatic adjustments to the original $11.00 exercise price, the exercise price at the time of exercise was $9.13 per share.

On November 1, 2010, the Company also issued warrants to COR Advisors LLC, an entity controlled by Steven A. Sugarman, who became a director of the Company on that date and later became President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (and resigned from those and all other positions with the Company and the Bank on January 23, 2017), to purchase up to 1,395,000 shares of non-voting common stock at an exercise price of $11.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments to the number of shares underlying the warrants as well as certain adjustments to the warrant exercise price as applicable. Subsequent to their original issuance, warrants for the right to purchase 960,000 shares of non-voting common stock were transferred to Steven A. Sugarman and his spouse through a living trust, and warrants for the right to purchase 435,000 shares of non-voting common stock were transferred to Jeffrey T. Seabold, Executive Vice President and Management Vice-Chair. These warrants vested in tranches, with each tranche being exercisable for five years after the tranche's vesting date. With respect to the warrants transferred to Steven A. Sugarman, 50,000 shares vested on October 1, 2011 and the remainder vested in seven equal quarterly installments beginning January 1, 2012 and ending on July 1, 2013. With respect to the warrants transferred to Mr. Seabold, 95,000 shares vested on January 1, 2011; 130,000 shares vested on each of April 1 and July 1, 2011, and 80,000 shares vested on October 1, 2011.

On August 17, 2016, Steven A. Sugarman and his spouse through their living trust transferred warrants to purchase 480,000 shares to Steven A. Sugarman's brother, Jason Sugarman. The living trust transferred the warrants in consideration for certain consulting services Jason Sugarman previously rendered to COR Advisors LLC. The transferred warrants are last exercisable on September 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017 for 50,000, 130,000, 130,000, 130,000, and 40,000 shares respectively. On August 17, 2016, Jason Sugarman irrevocably elected to fully exercise each tranche of the transferred warrant. Under the irrevocable election, Jason Sugarman directed that each such exercise would occur on the last exercisable date for each tranche using a cashless (net) exercise method and also directed that each exercise be for either non-voting common stock, or, if allowed under the terms of the warrant, for voting common stock. At September 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, based on Jason Sugarman’s irrevocable election, warrants to purchase 50,000, 130,000, 130,000 and 130,000 shares, respectively, had been exercised, resulting in issuances of 25,051 and 64,962 shares of the Company's voting common stock and 75,875 and 77,376 shares of the Company's class B non-voting common stock, respectively.

Steven A. Sugarman and his spouse through the living trust continue to hold warrants to purchase 480,000 shares, which are last exercisable on September 30, 2017, December 31, 2017, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018 for 90,000, 130,000, 130,000 and 130,000 shares, respectively.

On December 8, 2015, March 9, 2016, June 17, 2016, and September 30, 2016, Mr. Seabold exercised his warrants with respect to 95,000, 130,000, 130,000, and 80,000 shares, respectively, using cashless (net) exercises, resulting in a net number of shares of non-voting common stock issued in the aggregate of 37,355, 53,711, 70,775, and 40,081, respectively. Based on automatic adjustments to the original $11.00 exercise price, the exercise price at the time of exercise was $9.04, $8.90, $8.84, and $8.80 per share, respectively. As a result of these exercises, Mr. Seabold no longer holds warrants to purchase shares of non-voting common stock.

Under the terms of the respective warrants, the warrants are exercisable for voting common stock in lieu of non-voting common stock following a transfer of the warrants under certain circumstances described in the terms of the warrants. Based on automatic adjustments to the original $11.00 exercise price, the Company has determined that the exercise price for the warrants was $8.61 per share as of June 30, 2017. The terms and issuance of the foregoing warrants were approved by the Company's stockholders at a special meeting held on October 25, 2010.

Common Stock

On March 8, 2016, the Company issued and sold 4,850,000 shares of its voting common stock in an underwritten public offering, for gross proceeds of approximately $66.5 million. On the same date, the Company issued an additional 727,500 shares of voting common stock upon the exercise in full by the underwriters of their 30-day over-allotment option, for additional gross proceeds of approximately $10.5 million.

On May 11, 2016, the Company issued and sold 5,250,000 shares of its voting common stock in an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $100.0 million.

Stock Employee Compensation Trust

On August 3, 2016, the Company and Evercore Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, established the SECT to fund future employee compensation and benefit obligations of the Company using the Company’s common stock. On August 3, 2016, pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and the SECT, the Company sold 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the SECT for an aggregate purchase price of $53.6 million, in exchange for a cash amount equal to the aggregate par value of the shares and a promissory note for the balance of the purchase price. The SECT will release the shares over the term of the SECT to satisfy certain compensatory and benefit obligations of the Company under certain stock and other employee benefit plans of the Company and its subsidiaries, as the promissory note is paid down through allocations of available shares as directed by the Company, dividends on the shares received by the SECT or other earnings of the SECT. As the shares are released from the SECT and allocated to the plans, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the fair value of the shares on the grant date. The unallocated shares of the Company's common stock held by the SECT are not included in calculating the Company's earnings per share. All shares held by the SECT were unallocated at June 30, 2017. The SECT provides for confidential pass-through voting and tendering structured such that the individuals with an economic interest in the shares of the Company’s common stock held by the SECT control the voting and tendering of such shares. The SECT will terminate on January 1, 2032 or any earlier date on which the promissory note is paid in full. The Board of Directors may also terminate the SECT at any earlier time, and the SECT will terminate automatically upon the Company giving the trustee notice of a change of control of the Company.

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with par value of $0.01. Preferred shares outstanding rank senior to common shares both as to dividends and liquidation preference but have no voting rights. All of the Company's outstanding shares of preferred stock have a $1,000 per share liquidation preference. The following table presents the Company's total authorized, issued and outstanding preferred stock as of dates indicated:

On February 8, 2016, the Company completed the issuance and sale, in an underwritten public offering, of 5,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40^th interest in a share of its 7.00 percent Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series E (with 125,000 shares of Series E Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock issued), with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share), for gross proceeds of $121.1 million.

On April 1, 2016, the Company completed the redemption of all 32,000 outstanding shares of the Company's Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and all 10,000 outstanding shares of the Company's Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B. The shares were redeemed at a redemption price equal to the liquidation amount of $1,000 per share plus the unpaid dividends for the current dividend period to, but excluding, the redemption date. Both the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B preferred Stock were issued as part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Small Business Lending Fund Program.

Tangible Equity Units

On May 21, 2014, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 1,380,000 of its tangible equity units (TEUs), which included 180,000 TEUs issued to the underwriter upon the full exercise of its over-allotment option, resulting in net proceeds of $65.0 million. Each TEU was comprised of a prepaid stock purchase contract (each, a Purchase Contract) and a junior subordinated amortizing note due May 15, 2017 issued by the Company (each, an Amortizing Note). The terms of the Purchase Contracts provided that unless settled early at the holder’s option as described below, on May 15, 2017, each Purchase Contract would automatically settle and the Company would deliver a number of shares of its voting common stock based on the then-applicable market value of the voting common stock, ranging from an initial minimum settlement rate of 4.4456 shares per Purchase Contract (subject to adjustment) if the applicable market value is equal to or greater than $11.247 per share to an initial maximum settlement rate of 5.1124 shares per Purchase Contract (subject to adjustment) if the applicable market value is less than or equal to $9.78 per share.

From the first business day following the issuance of the TEUs to but excluding the third business day immediately preceding May 15, 2017, a holder of a Purchase Contract could settle its Purchase Contract early, and the Company would deliver to the holder 4.4456 shares of voting common stock. On May 15, 2017, all Purchase Contracts that had not previously been settled early as described above were settled. The Company issued an aggregate of 6,134,988 shares of voting common stock pursuant to the Purchase Contracts. As of June 30, 2017, no Purchase Contracts remained outstanding.

Each Amortizing Note had an initial principal amount of $10.604556 per Amortizing Note, bore interest at a rate of 7.50 percent per annum and had a final installment payment date of May 15, 2017. On each August 15, November 15, February 15 and May 15, commencing on August 15, 2014, the Company paid holders of Amortizing Notes equal quarterly cash installments of $1.00 per Amortizing Note (or, in the case of the installment payment due on August 15, 2014, $0.933333 per Amortizing Note) (such installments, the installment payments), which installment payments in the aggregate were equivalent to a 8.00 percent cash distribution per year with respect to each $50.00 stated amount of TEUs. Each installment payment constituted a payment of interest (at a rate of 7.50 percent per annum) and a partial repayment of principal on each Amortizing Note. The Company had the right to defer installment payments at any time and from time to time, subject to certain restrictions, so long as such deferral period did not extend beyond May 15, 2019; the Company did not exercise this right.

On May 15, 2017, the Company made the final installment payment on the Amortizing Notes. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Amortizing Notes, net of unamortized discounts, totaled $0 and $2.7 million, respectively, net of unamortized discounts, and were included in Long Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In July 2013, the Federal banking regulators approved a final rule to implement the revised capital adequacy standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly called Basel III, and to address relevant provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act). The final rule strengthens the definition of regulatory capital, increases risk-based capital requirements, makes selected changes to the calculation of risk-weighted assets, and adjusts the prompt corrective action thresholds. The Company and the Bank became subject to the new rule on January 1, 2015 and certain provisions of the new rule will be phased in through 2019.

The final rule:

• Permits banking organizations that had less than $15 billion in total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009, to include in Tier 1 capital trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock that were issued and included in Tier 1 capital prior to May 19, 2010, subject to a limit of 25 percent of Tier 1 capital elements, excluding any non-qualifying capital instruments and after all regulatory capital deductions and adjustments have been applied to Tier 1 capital.

• Establishes new qualifying criteria for regulatory capital, including new limitations on the inclusion of deferred tax assets and mortgage servicing rights.

• Requires a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 percent.

• Increases the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio requirement from 4 percent to 6 percent.

• Retains the minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio requirement of 8 percent.

• Retains a minimum leverage ratio requirement of 4 percent.

• Changes the prompt corrective action standards so that in order to be considered well-capitalized, a depository institution must have a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.5 percent (new), a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 8 percent (increased from 6 percent), a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10 percent (unchanged), and a leverage ratio of 5 percent (unchanged).

• Retains the existing regulatory capital framework for one-to-four family residential mortgage exposures.

57

• Permits banking organizations that are not subject to the advanced approaches rule, such as the Company and the Bank, to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for most accumulated other comprehensive income, such that unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale will not affect regulatory capital amounts and ratios.

• Implements a new capital conservation buffer requirement for a banking organization to maintain a common equity capital ratio more than 2.5 percent above the minimum common equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total risk based capital ratios in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments. The capital conservation buffer requirement is being phased in, beginning on January 1, 2016 at 0.625 percent, with additional 0.625 percent increments annually, and will be fully phased in at 2.50 percent by January 1, 2019. A banking organization with a buffer of less than the required amount would be subject to increasingly stringent limitations on such distributions and payments as the buffer approaches zero. The new rule also generally prohibits a banking organization from making such distributions or payments during any quarter if its eligible retained income is negative and its capital conservation buffer ratio was 2.5 percent or less at the end of the previous quarter. The eligible retained income of a banking organization is defined as its net income for the four calendar quarters preceding the current calendar quarter, based on the organization’s quarterly regulatory reports, net of any distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income.

• Increases capital requirements for past-due loans, high volatility commercial real estate exposures, and certain short term commitments and securitization exposures.

• Expands the recognition of collateral and guarantors in determining risk-weighted assets.

• Removes references to credit ratings consistent with the Dodd Frank Act and establishes due diligence requirements for securitization exposures.

NOTE 17 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The Company holds ownership interests in alternative energy partnerships, qualified affordable housing partnerships, and the SECT. The Company evaluates its interests in these entities to determine whether they meet the definition of a variable interest entity (VIE) and whether the Company is required to consolidate these entities. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To determine whether or not a variable interest the Company holds could potentially be significant to the VIE, the Company considers both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of the Company's involvement with the VIE. The Company has determined that its interests in these entities meet the definition of a variable interest.

Unconsolidated VIEs

Alternative Energy Partnerships

The Company invests in certain alternative energy partnerships (limited liability companies) formed to provide sustainable energy projects that are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits (energy tax credits). These entities were formed to invest in newly installed residential rooftop solar leases and power purchase agreements. As a result of its investments, the Company has the right to certain investment tax credits and tax depreciation benefits (recognized on the flow through and income statement method in accordance with ASC 740), and to a lesser extent, cash flows generated from the installed solar systems leased to individual consumers for a fixed period of time.

While the Company's interest in the alternative energy partnerships meets the definition of a VIE in accordance with ASC 810, the Company has determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary because the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities including operational and credit risk management activities. As the Company is not the primary beneficiary, the Company did not consolidate the entities. The Company uses the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) method to account for its investments in energy tax credits as an equity investment under ASC 970-323-25-17. Under the HLBV method, an equity method investor determines its share of an investee's earnings by comparing its claim on the investee's book value at the beginning and end of the period, assuming the investee were to liquidate all assets at their U.S. GAAP amounts and distribute the resulting cash to creditors and investors under their respective priorities.

The Company funded $13 thousand and $30.9 million, respectively, into these partnerships and recognized a loss on investment of $9.8 million and $18.4 million, respectively, through its HLBV application during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. As a result, the balance of these investments was $37.6 million at June 30, 2017. The Company has funded $88.3 million of its $200.0 million aggregate funding commitments. From an income tax benefit perspective, the Company recognized investment tax credits of $15.7 million and $24.5 million, respectively, as well as income tax benefits relating to the recognition of its loss through its HLBV application during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

The following table represents the carrying value of the associated assets and liabilities and the associated maximum loss exposure for alternative energy partnerships as of the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(In thousands)
Cash	$	6,777	$	—
Equipment, net of depreciation	212,550		151,721
Other assets	1,165		351
Total unconsolidated assets	$	220,492	$	152,072
Total unconsolidated liabilities	$	2,843	$	—
Maximum loss exposure	$	149,324	$	68,298

The maximum loss exposure that would be absorbed by the Company in the event that all of the assets in alternative energy partnerships are deemed worthless is $149.3 million, consisting of the investment balance of $37.6 million and unfunded equity commitments of $111.7 million at June 30, 2017. The Company believes that the loss exposure on its investment is reduced considering its return on its investment is provided not only by the cash flows of the underlying customer leases and power purchase agreements, but also through the significant tax benefits, including federal tax credits generated from the investments. In addition, the arrangements include a transition manager to support any transition of the solar company sponsor whose role includes that of the servicer and operation and maintenance provider, in the event the sponsor would be required to be removed from its responsibilities (e.g., bankruptcy, breach of contract, etc.), thereby further limiting the Company’s exposure.

59

Qualified Affordable Housing Partnerships

The Company also invests in limited partnerships that operate qualified affordable housing projects. The returns on these investments are generated primarily through allocated Federal tax credits and other tax benefits. In addition, these investments contribute to the Company's compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act. These limited partnerships are considered to be VIEs, because either (i) they do not have sufficient equity investment at risk or (ii) the limited partners with equity at risk do not have substantive kick-out rights through voting rights or substantive participating rights over the general partner. As a limited partner, the Company is not the primary beneficiary because the general partner has the ability to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact their economic performance. Therefore, the Company does not consolidate these partnerships.

The Company funded $2.0 million into these partnerships and recognized proportional amortization expense of $604 thousand and $727 thousand, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. As a result, the balance of these investments was $4.5 million at June 30, 2017. The Company has funded $11.2 million of its $29.5 million aggregated funding commitments. The Company had an unfunded commitment of $18.4 million at June 30, 2017. From an income tax benefit perspective, the Company recognized investment tax credits of $432 thousand and $539 thousand, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The maximum loss exposure that would be absorbed by the Company in the event that all of the assets in this investment are deemed worthless is $4.5 million, which is the Company's recorded investment amount. The recorded investment amount is included in Other Assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and the proportional amortization expense is recorded in Income Tax (Benefit) Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As the investments in alternative energy partnerships and qualified affordable housing partnerships represent unconsolidated VIEs to the Company, the assets and liabilities of the investments themselves are not recorded on the Company's statements of financial condition.

Consolidated VIE

The Company maintains a SECT to fund future employee stock compensation and benefit obligations of the Company. The SECT holds and will release shares of the Company's common stock to be used to fund the Company's obligations during the term of the SECT under certain stock and other employee benefit plans of the Company. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company sold 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the SECT for an aggregate purchase price of $53.6 million, in exchange for a cash amount equal to the aggregate par value of the shares and a promissory note for the balance of the purchase price. The promissory note is paid down through allocations of available shares to the Company’s stock and other employee benefit plans as directed by the Company, dividends on the shares received by the SECT, other earnings of the SECT, or may be forgiven by the Company.

The Company evaluated its interest in the SECT and determined it is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. As such, the SECT is consolidated by the Company.

The entire amount of assets and liabilities of the SECT represents the transactions between the Company and the SECT. As a result, the note receivable on the Company and the note payable on the SECT are eliminated on a consolidated basis. All other transactions, such as note principal and dividend payments and receipts, are also eliminated on a consolidated basis, accordingly. See Note 15 for additional information.

NOTE 19 – LOAN COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Risk of credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows for the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Fixed Rate		Variable Rate
	(In thousands)
Commitments to extend credit (1)	$	10,437	$	221,391	$	74,777	$	201,321
Unused lines of credit	53,320		1,098,668		27,151		888,236
Letters of credit	1,886		8,414		1,784		8,655

(1) Includes $5.2 million and $65.1 million, respectively, of commitments to extend credit related to discontinued operations at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 30 days or less.

Other Commitments

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had jumbo SFR mortgage loan sale commitments of $103.5 million. Total forward commitments related to mortgage banking activities were $207.8 million at June 30, 2017. These commitments consisted of TBAs of $198.0 million and best efforts contracts of $9.8 million. Additionally, the Company had IRLCs of $24.4 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Bank entered into certain definitive agreements which grant the Bank the exclusive naming rights to the soccer stadium of The Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) as well as the right to be the official bank of LAFC. In exchange for the Bank’s rights as set forth in the agreements, the Bank agreed to pay LAFC $100.0 million over a period of 15 years, beginning in 2017 and ending in 2032. As of June 30, 2017, the Company paid $10.0 million of the commitment, which was recognized as a prepaid asset and included in Other Assets in Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See note 21 for additional information.

The Company had unfunded commitments of $18.4 million, $11.8 million, and $111.7 million for Affordable House Fund Investment, SBIC, and Other Investments including investments in alternative energy partnerships, at June 30, 2017, respectively.

NOTE 20 – RESTRUCTURING

In connection with the sale of its Banc Home Loans division, the Company restructured certain aspects of its infrastructure and back office operations by realigning back office staffing resulting in certain severance and other employee related costs including accelerated vesting of equity awards, and amending certain system contracts in order to improve the Company's efficiency.

General. The Bank has granted loans to certain executive officers and directors and their related interests. Excluding the loan amounts described in detail below, loans outstanding to executive officers and directors and their related interests amounted to $249 thousand at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, all of which were performing in accordance with their respective terms as of those dates. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms and conditions, including interest rates and collateral, as those of comparable transactions with non-insiders prevailing at the time, in accordance with the Bank’s underwriting guidelines, and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. The Bank has an Employee Loan Program (the Program) which is available to all employees and offers executive officers, directors and principal stockholders that meet the eligibility requirements the opportunity to participate on the same terms as employees generally, provided that any loan to an executive officer, director or principal stockholder must be approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors. The sole benefit provided under the Program is a reduction in loan fees.

Deposits from executive officers, directors, and their related interests amounted to $1.2 million and $2.4 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. There are certain deposits described below, which are not included in the foregoing amounts.

Sugarman; and (ii) Jason Sugarman’s father-in-law, who currently serves as Executive Chairman and a member of Holdco’s board of directors, which is appointed by Holdco’s general partner and primarily functions in an advisory capacity. The foregoing statements are based primarily on information provided to the Company by Holdco through its legal counsel.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were $8.4 million and no outstanding advances, respectively, by the Bank under the Stadco Loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the largest amount of principal outstanding under the Stadco Loan was $8.4 million. The Bank collected $102 thousand and $59 thousand, respectively, in unused loan fees during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016. Interest on the outstanding balance under the Stadco Loan accrues at LIBOR plus a margin. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, $76 thousand and $0 interest, respectively, was paid by Stadco to the Bank on the Stadco Loan.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were $2.0 million and no outstanding advances, respectively, by the Bank under Team Loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Team Loan was $2.0 million. The Bank collected $31 thousand and $18 thousand, respectively, in unused loan fees during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016. Interest on the outstanding balance under the Team Loan accrues at LIBOR plus a margin. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, $31 thousand and $0 interest, respectively, was paid by Team to the Bank on the Team Loan.

Following the closing of the Stadco Loan and the Term Loan, the Bank on August 22, 2016 reached agreement with the Team concerning, among other things, the Bank’s right to name the stadium to be operated by Stadco (the Stadium) as “Banc of California Stadium.” The August 22, 2016 agreement, which contemplated the negotiation and execution of more detailed definitive agreements between the Bank, on the one hand, and Stadco and the Team on the other hand (LAFC Transaction), also included a sponsorship relationship between the Bank and the Team with an initial term ending on the completion date of LAFC’s 15th full Major League Soccer (MLS) season, and the Bank having a right of first offer to extend the term for an additional 10 years (LAFC Term). On February 28, 2017, the Bank executed more detailed definitive agreements with LAFC and Stadco relating to the LAFC Transaction, which are subject to MLS rules and/or approval (the LAFC Agreements).

The LAFC Agreements provide that, during the LAFC Term, the Bank will have the exclusive right to name the Stadium and will be the exclusive provider of financial services to (and the exclusive financial services sponsor of) the Team and Stadco. In connection with its right to name the Stadium, the Bank will receive, among other rights, signage (including prominent exterior signage) and related branding rights throughout the exterior and interior of the Stadium facility (including exclusive branding rights within certain designated areas and venues within the facility), will receive the right to locate a Bank branch within the Stadium facility, will receive the exclusive right to install and operate ATMs in the Stadium facility, and will receive the exclusive right to process payments and provide other financial services (with certain exceptions) throughout the facility. In addition, the Bank will receive suite access for LAFC and certain other events held at the Stadium and will receive certain hospitality, event, media and other rights ancillary to its naming rights relating to the Stadium and its sponsorship rights relating to the Team. In conjunction with the LAFC Agreements, the Company expects to decrease its other planned marketing and sponsorship expenses.

In exchange for the Bank’s rights as set forth in the LAFC Agreements, the Bank (i) paid the Team $10.0 million on March 31, 2017 and (ii) has agreed to pay the following annual aggregate amounts: for the Team’s 2018 MLS season, $5.3 million; for 2019, $5.4 million; for 2020, $5.5 million; for 2021, $5.6 million; for 2022, $5.7 million; for 2023, $5.8 million; for 2024, $5.9 million; for 2025, $6.0 million; for 2026, $6.1 million; for 2027, $6.2 million; for 2028, $6.3 million; for 2029, $6.4 million; for 2030, $6.5 million; for 2031, $6.6 million; and for 2032, $6.7 million.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the various entities affiliated with LAFC held $67.9 million and $76.0 million, respectively, of deposits at the Bank.

Legal Fees and Other Matters. During July 2017, the Company and the Bank became aware that the former Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, Steven A. Sugarman, became of counsel to Michelman & Robinson, LLP, a law firm that previously provided legal services to the Bank. For legal services that were performed for the Bank over a period of more than four months, the Bank paid Michelman & Robinson, LLP approximately $330 thousand in fees during the three months ended March 31, 2017. No legal services were provided and $0 was paid to Michelman & Robinson, LLP during the three months ended June 30, 2017. The Bank does not intend to utilize the services of Michelman & Robinson, LLP in the future. Michelman & Robinson, LLP currently has three outstanding letters of credit with the Bank, none of which was drawn upon as of June 30, 2017, which were issued under a line of credit that was originally extended to Michelman & Robinson, LLP prior to 2008. Michelman & Robinson, LLP elected to pay in full all outstanding borrowings under the line of credit in June 2017 and, thereafter, the line of credit was terminated. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Bank reimbursed Michelman & Robinson, LLP $100 thousand in connection with a matter concerning funds wired by a third party to a deposit account Michelman & Robinson, LLP held at the Bank.

Consulting Agreement for the Bank. On August 4, 2016, the Bank entered into a Management Services Agreement with Carlos Salas, who was, at the time, the Chief Executive Officer of COR Clearing LLC (COR Clearing) and Chief Financial Officer of COR Securities Holding, Inc. (CORSHI). Steven A. Sugarman, the then- (now former) Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, is the Chief Executive Officer, as well as a controlling equity owner, of both COR Clearing and CORSHI. For management consulting and advisory services provided to the Bank through the termination of the management services agreement on November 30, 2016, Mr. Salas earned $108 thousand in fees. On December 1, 2016, Mr. Salas became a full-time employee of the Bank and tendered his resignation from his positions as Chief Executive Officer of COR Clearing and Chief Financial Officer of CORSHI effective upon the orderly transition of his duties, but in no case later than March 31, 2017. Mr. Salas earned $17 thousand as a full time employee of the Bank through the year ended December 31, 2016. Mr. Salas separated from the Bank on February 1, 2017.

TCW Affiliates. TCW Shared Opportunity Fund V, L.P. (SHOP V Fund), an affiliate of The TCW Group, Inc., initially became a holder of the Company’s voting common stock and non-voting common stock as a lead investor in the November 2010 recapitalization of the Company (the Recapitalization). In connection with its investment in the Recapitalization, SHOP V Fund also was issued by the Company an immediately exercisable five-year warrant (the SHOP V Fund Warrant) to purchase 240,000 shares of non-voting common stock or, to the extent provided therein, shares of voting common stock in lieu of non-voting common stock. SHOP V Fund was issued shares of non-voting common stock in the Recapitalization because at that time, a controlling interest in TCW Asset Management Company, the investment manager to SHOP V Fund, was held by a foreign banking organization, and in order to prevent SHOP V Fund from being considered a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, the number of shares of voting common stock it purchased in the Recapitalization had to be limited to 4.99 percent of the total number of shares of voting common stock outstanding immediately following the Recapitalization. For the same reason, the SHOP V Fund Warrant could be exercised by SHOP V Fund for voting common stock in lieu of non-voting common stock only to the extent SHOP V Fund's percentage ownership of the voting common stock at the time of exercise would be less than 4.99 percent as a result of dilution occurring from additional issuances of voting common stock subsequent to the Recapitalization.

In 2013, the foreign banking organization sold its controlling interest in TCW Asset Management Company, eliminating the need to limit SHOP V Fund's percentage ownership of the voting common stock to 4.99 percent. As a result, on May 29, 2013, the Company and SHOP V Fund entered into a Common Stock Share Exchange Agreement, dated May 29, 2013 (Exchange Agreement), pursuant to which SHOP V Fund could from time to time exchange its shares of non-voting common stock for shares of voting common stock issued by the Company on a share-for-share basis, provided that immediately following any such exchange, SHOP V Fund's percentage ownership of voting common stock did not exceed 9.99 percent. The shares of non-voting common stock that could be exchanged by SHOP V Fund pursuant to the Exchange Agreement included the shares of non-voting common stock it purchased in the Recapitalization, the additional shares of non-voting common stock SHOP V Fund acquired subsequent to the Recapitalization pursuant to the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan and any additional shares of non-voting common stock that SHOP V Fund acquired pursuant to its exercise of the SHOP V Fund Warrant.

On December 10, 2014, SHOP V Fund and two affiliated entities, Crescent Special Situations Fund Legacy V, L.P. (CSSF Legacy V) and Crescent Special Situations Fund Investor Group, L.P. (CSSF Investor Group), entered into a Contribution, Distribution and Sale Agreement pursuant to which SHOP V Fund agreed to transfer shares of non-voting common stock and portions of the SHOP V Fund Warrant to CSSF Legacy V and CSSF Investor Group. Also on December 10, 2014, SHOP V Fund, CSSF Legacy V, CSSF Investor Group and the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to which all of SHOP V Fund’s rights and obligations under the Exchange Agreement with respect to the shares of non-voting common stock transferred by it to CSSF Legacy V and CSSF Investor Group pursuant to the Contribution, Distribution and Sale Agreement were assigned to CSSF Legacy V and CSSF Investor Group, including the right of SHOP V Fund to exchange such shares for shares of voting common stock on a one-for-one basis.

72

Based on a Schedule 13G amendment filed with the SEC on February 12, 2015, The TCW Group's last public filing reporting ownership of the Company's securities, as of December 31, 2014, The TCW Group, Inc. and its affiliates held 1,318,462 shares of voting common stock (which included, for purposes of this calculation, the 240,000 shares of stock underlying the as yet unexercised SHOP V Fund Warrant). On June 3, 2013, January 5, 2015, January 20, 2015, and March 16, 2015, SHOP V Fund or CSSF Legacy V or CSSF Investor Group exchanged 550,000 shares, 522,564 shares, 86,620 shares, and 934 shares, respectively, of non-voting common stock for the same number of shares of voting common stock. In addition, on August 3, 2015, the SHOP V Fund Warrant, which was held in separate portions by CSSF Legacy V and CSSF Investor Group, was exercised in full using a cashless (net) exercise, resulting in a net number of shares of non-voting common stock issued in the aggregate of 70,690, which were immediately thereafter exchanged for an aggregate of 70,690 shares of voting common stock. Based on automatic adjustments to the original $11.00 exercise price of the SHOP V Fund Warrant, the exercise price at the time of exercise was $9.13 per share. As a result of these exchanges and exercises The TCW Group, Inc. and its affiliates no longer hold any shares of non-voting common stock or warrants to acquire stock. Based on TCW Group's prior report of owning 1,318,462 shares of the Company’s voting common stock, TCW Group, Inc. would have owned 3.5 percent of the Company’s outstanding voting common stock as of December 31, 2015.

Oaktree Affiliates. As reported in a Schedule 13G filed with the SEC on January 16, 2015, OCM BOCA Investor, LLC (OCM), an affiliate of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., owned 3,288,947 shares of the Company’s voting common stock as of November 7, 2014, which OCM reported represented 9.9 percent of the Company’s total shares outstanding as of the dates set forth in the Schedule 13G. For the details of the transaction in which OCM acquired these shares, see “Securities Purchase Agreement with Oaktree” below. However, as reported in a Schedule 13G amendment filed with the SEC on February 12, 2016 OCM and its affiliates owned 671,702 shares of the Company’s voting common stock as of December 31, 2015, which OCM reported represented less than 5 percent of the Company’s total shares outstanding.

Loans. Effective September 30, 2015, the Bank provided a $15.0 million committed revolving line of credit, which was increased to $20.0 million effective as of March 7, 2017, to Teleios LS Holdings DE, LLC and Teleios LS Holdings II DE, LLC (Teleios), which generate income through the purchase, monitoring, maintenance and maturity of life insurance policies. At the time the facility was executed, the Teleios entities were hedge funds in which Oaktree Capital Management L.P. or one of its affiliates was a controlling investor.

Advances under the Teleios line of credit are secured by life insurance policies purchased by Teleios that have a market value in excess of the balance of the advances under the line of credit. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, outstanding advances by the Bank under the Teleios line of credit were $20.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively. During the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, the largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Teleios line of credit were $20.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively. Interest on the outstanding balance under the Teleios line of credit accrues at the Prime Rate plus a margin. During the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, $0 and $2.0 million in principal, respectively, and $488 thousand and $462 thousand in interest, respectively, was paid by Teleios on the line of credit to the Bank.

Effective June 26, 2015, the Bank provided a $35.0 million committed revolving repurchase facility, which was increased to $40.0 million (the Sabal repurchase facility) effective June 11, 2017, to Sabal TL1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, with a maximum funding amount of $100.0 million in certain situations. At the time the facility was executed, Sabal TL1, LLC was controlled by an affiliate of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. Under the Sabal repurchase facility, commercial mortgage loans originated by Sabal are purchased from Sabal by the Bank, together with a simultaneous agreement by Sabal to repurchase the commercial mortgage loans from the Bank at a future date. The advances under the Sabal repurchase facility are secured by commercial mortgage loans that have a market value in excess of the balance of the advances under the facility. During the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, the largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Sabal repurchase facility was $94.7 million and $55.1 million, respectively. The amount outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $24.3 million and $22.6 million, respectively. Interest on the outstanding balance under the Sabal repurchase facility accrues at the six month LIBOR rate plus a margin. $371.0 million and $514.1 million in principal, respectively, and $758 thousand and $1.1 million in interest, respectively, was paid by Sabal on the facility to the Bank during the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016.

Securities Purchase Agreement with Oaktree. As noted above,as reported in a Schedule 13G filed with the SEC on January 16, 2015, OCM owned 3,288,947 shares of the Company’s voting common stock. OCM purchased these shares from the Company on November 7, 2014 at a price of $9.78 per share pursuant to a securities purchase agreement entered into on April 22, 2014 (and amended on October 28, 2014) in order for the Company to raise a portion of the capital to be used to finance the BPNA Branch Acquisition, which was completed on November 8, 2014. In consideration for its commitment under the securities purchase agreement, OCM was paid at closing an equity support payment from the Company of $1.6 million.

73

Management Services. Approximately nine months before OCM became a stockholder of the Company, certain affiliates of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (collectively, the Oaktree Funds) entered into a management agreement, effective January 30, 2014, as amended (the Management Agreement), with The Palisades Group, which was then a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Pursuant to the Management Agreement, The Palisades Group serves as the credit manager of pools of SFR mortgage loans held in securitization trusts or other vehicles beneficially owned by the Oaktree Funds. Under the Management Agreement, The Palisades Group is paid a monthly management fee primarily based on the amount of certain designated pool assets and may earn additional fees for advice related to financing opportunities. During the period from January 1, 2016 through May 5, 2016 (the date the Company sold its membership interests in The Palisades Group) and the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Oaktree Funds paid The Palisades Group $1.0 million, $5.1 million, and $5.3 million as management fees, respectively, which in some instances represents fees for partial year services. In addition to the Management Agreement, the Bank may from time to time in the future enter into lending transactions with portfolio companies of investment funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P.

St. Cloud Affiliates. On November 24, 2014, the Bank invested as a limited partner in an affiliate of St. Cloud Capital LLC (St. Cloud). Based on a Schedule 13G amendment filed with the SEC on February 14, 2012, St. Cloud's last public filing reporting ownership of the Company securities, St. Cloud reported holding 700,538 shares of the Company’s voting common stock (approximately 1.4 percent of the Company's outstanding voting common shares as of December 31, 2015). The affiliate is St. Cloud Capital Partners III SBIC, LP (the Partnership), which applied for a license granted by the U.S. Small Business Administration to operate as a debenture Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 expressly identifies an investment by a bank in an SBIC as a type of investment that is presumed by the regulatory agencies to promote economic development. The Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank approved the Bank’s investment. The Bank has agreed to invest a minimum of $5.0 million, but up to $7.5 million as long as the Bank’s limited partnership interest in the Partnership remains under 9.9 percent.

Other affiliated funds of St. Cloud have previously invested in CORSHI, of which Steven A. Sugarman (the former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank) is the Chief Executive Officer as well as a controlling stockholder (both directly and indirectly). St. Cloud Capital Partners III SBIC, LP has provided oral representations to the Bank that the Partnership will not make any investments in COR Securities Holdings, Inc.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, St. Cloud entities held $0 and $1 thousand, respectively, in deposits at the Bank.

Consulting Services to the Company. On May 15, 2014, the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company approved a strategic advisor agreement with Chrisman & Co. pursuant to which Chrisman & Co. would provide strategic advisory services for the Company. Timothy Chrisman, who retired from the Company’s Board on May 15, 2014 upon the expiration of the term of his directorship after the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, is the Chief Executive Officer and founding principal of Chrisman & Co. The term of the strategic advisor agreement was for a period of one year, which ended on May 15, 2015. For services performed during the term of the agreement, a fixed annual advisory fee of $200 thousand was paid to Chrisman & Co. during the year ended December 31, 2014 and no additional fees were paid during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Consulting Services to The Palisades Group. The Company completed the sale of its subsidiary, The Palisades Group, on May 5, 2016, which it originally acquired on September 10, 2013. The information included herein is based on information known to the Company as of May 5, 2016, the date the Company completed the sale of The Palisades Group. Effective as of July 1, 2013, prior to the Company’s acquisition of The Palisades Group, The Palisades Group entered into a consulting agreement with Jason Sugarman, the brother of the Company’s and the Bank’s then- (now former) Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Steven A. Sugarman. Jason Sugarman has historically provided advisory services to financial institutions and other institutional clients related to investments in residential mortgages, real estate and real estate related assets and The Palisades Group entered into the consulting agreement with Jason Sugarman to provide these types of services. The consulting agreement is for a term of five years, with a minimum payment of $30 thousand owed at the end of each quarter (or $600 thousand in aggregate quarterly payments over the five-year term of the agreement). These payments do not include any bonuses that may be earned under the agreement. Effective as of March 26, 2015, the bonus amount earned by Jason Sugarman for consulting services he provided during the year ended December 31, 2014 was credited in satisfaction and full discharge of all then currently accrued but unpaid quarterly payments as well as any future quarterly payments specified under the consulting agreement, but not against any future bonuses that he may earn under the consulting agreement. During the period from January 1, 2016 through May 5, 2016 (the date the Company sold its membership interests in The Palisades Group), no bonus amounts were earned by Jason Sugarman under the consulting agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 base and bonus amounts earned by Jason Sugarman under the consulting agreement totaled $30 thousand, $1.2 million, and $121 thousand, respectively.

74

The consulting agreement may be terminated at any time by either The Palisades Group or Jason Sugarman upon 30 days prior written notice. The consulting agreement with Jason Sugarman was reviewed as a related party transaction and approved by the then-acting Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and approved by the disinterested directors of the Board. As of May 5, 2016, the Company has no direct or indirect obligation under the consulting agreement, as the agreement was entered into between Jason Sugarman and The Palisades Group, and the Company completed the sale of The Palisades Group on that date.

Lease Payment Reimbursements for The Palisades Group. At the time it was acquired by the Company, The Palisades Group occupied premises in Santa Monica, California leased by COR Securities Holding, Inc. (CORSHI). Steven A. Sugarman, the then- (now former) Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, is the Chief Executive Officer, as well as a controlling stockholder (both directly and indirectly), of CORSHI. In light of the benefit received by The Palisades Group of its occupancy of the Santa Monica premises, the disinterested directors of the Company’s Board ratified reimbursement to CORSHI for rental payments made for the Santa Monica premises for the period from September 16, 2013 through June 27, 2014, the last date The Palisades Group occupied the premises. The Palisades Group negotiated with an unaffiliated third party a lease for new premises and occupied those premises on June 27, 2014.

The aggregate amount of rent payments reimbursed to CORSHI from September 16, 2013 through December 30, 2013 were $40 thousand. In addition, the Company reimbursed CORSHI for a $34 thousand security deposit and The Palisades Group, in turn, reimbursed the Company for this cost. For the period from January 1, 2014 through June 27, 2014, CORSHI granted The Palisades Group a rent abatement equal to the $34 thousand security deposit and, combined with additional payments, The Palisades Group paid leasing costs totaling $58 thousand to CORSHI for that same time period. The then-acting Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board monitored all the reimbursement costs and reviewed the aggregate reimbursement costs.

NOTE 22 – LITIGATION

From time to time we are involved as plaintiff or defendant in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. The Company was named as a defendant in several complaints filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California in January 2017 alleging violations of sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The complaints were brought as purported class actions on behalf of stockholders who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock between varying dates, inclusive of August 7, 2015 through January 23, 2017. In general, the complaints allege that the Company’s alleged concealment of its purported relationship with an individual who pled guilty to securities fraud in matters unrelated to the Company caused various statements made by the Company to be allegedly false and misleading.  These legal actions are at a very early stage. The Company intends to vigorously defend such actions.

NOTE 23 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated events from the date of the consolidated financial statements on June 30, 2017 through the issuance of these consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that no significant events were identified requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the major factors that influenced our results of operations and financial condition as of and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017. This analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and general practices within the banking industry. Within these financial statements, certain financial information contains approximate measurements of financial effects of transactions and impacts at the consolidated statements of financial condition dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods. As certain accounting policies require significant estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities, we have established critical accounting policies to facilitate making the judgment necessary to prepare financial statements. Our critical accounting policies are described in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” and in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Significant Accounting Policies” in this Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted: The following are recently issued accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company that have not yet been adopted:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The amendments in this Update require lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases, as well as define classification criteria for distinguishing between financing leases and operating leases. This Update requires lessees to recognize all leases on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as lease assets and lease liabilities based primarily on the present value of future lease payments. Lessor accounting is largely unchanged. A modified retrospective approach is required at adoption which requires all prior periods presented in the financial statements to be restated, with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. This guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding leasing arrangements. For public business entities, the amendments to this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” This Update amends the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and clarifies the collectability criteria, accounting policy elections, noncash consideration, satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, completed contracts, and disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2016-12 affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, which is effective for public business entities in annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." The amendments in this Update 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. For public business entities that are SEC filers, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements. The impact of this Update will depend upon the state of the economy and the nature of the Company's portfolio at the date of adoption.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01,“Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” The amendments in this Update provide guidance on evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Currently, Topic 805 does not specify the minimum inputs and processes required for a set to meet the definition of a business. This Update presents a more robust framework to use when an entity determines whether a set of assets and activities represents a business. Also, this Update sets forth more consistency in applying the guidance with a more operable definition of a business. Public business entities must prospectively apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

76

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,“Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The amendments in this Update eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test when it is required. Instead, an entity must perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. For an impairment charge, an entity must recognize impairment by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, but the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Furthermore, this Update requires an entity to disclose the amount of goodwill allocated to each reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount of net assets. A public business entity that is an SEC filer must adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05,“Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets.” The amendments in this Update clarify the scope and application of ASC 610-20 on the sale or transfer of nonfinancial assets, including real estate, and in substance nonfinancial assets to noncustomers, including partial sales. An entity should identify each distinct nonfinancial asset or in substance nonfinancial asset promised to a counterparty and derecognize each asset when a counterparty obtains control of it. An in substance nonfinancial asset is an asset within a contract or subsidiary in which substantially all of the fair value of the asset is concentrated in a nonfinancial asset. In addition, the amendment requires an entity to derecognize a distinct nonfinancial asset or in substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when the entity does not retain a controlling financial interest in the legal entity that holds the asset and an entity transfers control of the asset. Once control is transferred, any non-controlling interest received is required to be measured at fair value. The effective date of the new guidance is aligned with the requirements in the new revenue standard, which is effective for public business entities in annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08,“Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities." The amendments in this Update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount, which continue to be amortized to maturity. Public business entities must prospectively apply the amendments in this Update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09.“Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” The amendments in this Update provide guidance on when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award are to be accounted for as modifications. Under the new guidance, entities are not required to apply modification accounting to a share-based payment award when the award’s fair value, vesting conditions, and classification as an entity or a liability instrument remain the same after the change. The new guidance is effective for all entities beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within the fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Under Item 10(e) of SEC Regulation S-K, public companies disclosing financial measures in filings with the SEC that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the reasons why the company’s management believes that presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors regarding the company’s financial condition and results of operations and, to the extent material, a statement of the additional purposes, if any, for which the company’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measure.

Return on average tangible common equity and efficiency ratio, as adjusted, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible common equity per common share and tangible common equity per common share and per common share issuable under purchase contracts constitute supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are used by management in its analysis of the Company's performance.

Tangible common equity is calculated by subtracting preferred stock, goodwill, and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity. Tangible assets is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total assets. Banking regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution.

Adjusted efficiency ratio is calculated by subtracting loss on investments in alternative energy partnerships from noninterest expense and adding total pre-tax return, which includes the loss on investments in alternative energy partnerships, to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income (total revenue). Management believes the presentation of these financial measures adjusting the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results and operating performance of the Company.

This disclosure should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

The following tables provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.

Highlights

• During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Banc Home Loans division, which largely reflected the Company's Mortgage Banking segment. The Company determined that the sale of our Mortgage Banking segment met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation. This transaction advanced our strategy to focus our business on core commercial banking opportunities in our California markets.

• Income from continuing operations was $15.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 23.4 percent, from $19.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, income from continuing operations was $24.5 million, a decrease of $12.6 million, or 33.9 percent, from $37.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Net income was $12.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $14.3 million, or 53.8 percent, from $26.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, net income was $29.5 million, a decrease of $16.8 million, or 36.3 percent, from $46.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

• Return on average assets, on a consolidated operations basis, was 0.46 percent and 1.06 percent, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and 0.54 percent and 0.98 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Return on average tangible common equity, on a consolidated operations basis, was 4.51 percent and 15.65 percent, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and 6.11 percent and 15.13 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

• Net interest income, on a consolidated operations basis, was $78.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 3.4 percent, from $81.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, net interest income was $162.0 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 7.0 percent, from $151.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to a higher interest income from increased average interest-earning assets, partially offset by a higher interest expense from increased interest-bearing liabilities and a lower average yield on loans and leases. Net interest margin was 3.09 percent and 3.39 percent, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and 3.14 percent and 3.39 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

• Provision for loan and lease losses was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $734 thousand, or 41.5 percent, from $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Provision for loan and lease losses was $5.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $3.0 million, or 143.3 percent, from $2.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016.

• Noninterest income from continuing operations was $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $17.2 million, or 75.1 percent, from $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest income from continuing operations was $20.6 million, a decrease of $23.5 million, or 53.3 percent, from $44.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in noninterest income was mainly due to a gain on sale of subsidiary during the 2016 periods and the decreases in net gain on sale of securities available-for-sale, loan brokerage income and other income, partially offset by increases in customer services fees and loan servicing income. Noninterest income from discontinued operations was $14.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $28.6 million, or 67.0 percent, from $42.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest income from discontinued operations was $58.9 million, a decrease of $14.6 million, or 19.8 percent, from $73.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in net revenue from discontinued operations, partially offset by an increase in loan servicing income (loss) and a net gain on disposal of discontinued operations in 2017 periods.

• Noninterest expense from continuing operations was $76.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $11.3 million, or 17.3 percent, from $65.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest expense from continuing operations was $166.2 million, an increase of $42.0 million, or 33.8 percent, from $124.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to the special investigation, pending SEC investigation and restructurings, as well as a recognition of loss on investments in alternative energy partnerships, during the 2017 periods. Noninterest expense from discontinued operations was $21.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $13.1 million, or 37.5 percent, from $35.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest expense from discontinued operations was $56.6 million, a decrease of $8.4 million, or 12.9 percent, from $65.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to decreases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing and advertising, partially offset by increases in professional fees and outside services fees and a restructuring expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

• Income tax (benefit) expense from consolidated operations was $(14.9) million and $18.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and $(15.8) million and $31.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Income tax benefits in 2017 periods were mainly due to the recognition of tax credits from the investments in alternative energy partnerships of $15.7 million and $24.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

• Efficiency ratio as adjusted to include the pre-tax effect of investments in alternative energy partnerships was 80.51 percent and 79.51 percent, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, compared to 68.24 percent and 70.32 percent, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2016. The changes in the 2017 periods were mainly due to the higher increase in noninterest expense than the increase in total revenue.

• Total assets were $10.37 billion at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $664.1 million, or 6.0 percent, from $11.03 billion at December 31, 2016. Average total assets were $10.70 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $635.8 million, or 6.3 percent, from $10.06 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, average total assets were $10.94 billion, an increase of $1.49 billion, or 15.8 percent, from $9.45 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

• Loans and leases receivable, net of ALLL were $5.91 billion at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $80.4 million, or 1.3 percent, from $5.99 billion at December 31, 2016. Loans held-for-sale, on a consolidated operations basis, were $439.6 million at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $265.0 million, or 37.6 percent, from $704.7 million at December 31, 2016. Average total loans and leases were $6.64 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $23.7 million, or 0.4 percent, from $6.66 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, average total loans and leases were $6.71 billion, an increase of $382.6 million, or 6.0 percent, from $6.33 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

• Total deposits were $8.04 billion at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $1.10 billion, or 12.0 percent, from $9.14 billion at December 31, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to a planned reduction of brokered deposits and outflows from the Company's private banking, institutional banking and commercial banking business units. Average total deposits were $8.24 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $1.34 billion, or 19.4 percent, from $6.90 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, average total deposits were $8.57 billion, an increase of $1.84 billion, or 27.3 percent, from $6.73 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net interest income was $78.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 3.4 percent, from $81.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in net interest income from the prior period was largely due to higher interest expense on higher average balances of interest-bearing liabilities and lower average yield on total loans and leases and other interest-earning assets, partially offset by higher interest income from higher average balances of interest-earning assets and higher average yield on securities.

Interest income on total loans and leases was $72.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 1.7 percent, from $73.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in interest income on loans and leases was due to a $23.7 million decrease in average total loans and leases and a 7 basis points (bps) decrease in average yield. The decrease in average balance was due mainly to sales of the Company's lease financing portfolio and seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools during the second half of 2016. The decrease in average yield was mainly due to the sale of the Company's lease financing portfolio, which earned a higher yield than other loan portfolios, and a decrease in the proportion of seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools to total loans and leases, due to sales in 2016, where discounts on these pools generate additional interest income. The discount accretion totaled $2.2 million and $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Interest income on securities was $25.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $5.6 million, or 28.9 percent, from $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in interest income on securities was due to a $308.0 million increase in average balance and a 45 bps increase in average yield. The increase in average balance was mainly due to purchases of securities to deploy the proceeds from the preferred stock and common stock offerings in 2016 and the deposit balance increase during the period. The increase in average yield was due to higher interest rates on newly purchased investment securities.

Dividends and interest income on other interest-earning assets was $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $279 thousand, or 18.6 percent, from $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in dividends and interest income on other interest-earning assets was due to a $257.3 million increase in average balance, partially offset by a 95 bps decrease in average yield. The increase in average balance was mainly due to the excess cash from the common stock offerings during the second quarter of 2016 and deposit increase. The decrease in average yield was mainly due to an increase in interest-earning deposits in financial institutions, which earn lower yields than other interest-earning assets, and increases in dividend income from FHLB and FRB stock.

87

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was $14.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $6.6 million, or 78.2 percent, from $8.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits resulted from a $1.29 billion increase in average balance and a 27 bps increase in average cost. The increase in average balance was mainly due to strong deposit growth across the Company's business units as well as an increased average balance per account. The Company also strategically added brokered certificates of deposit in order to maintain a sufficient level of deposit funding.

Interest expense on FHLB advances was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $808 thousand, or 41.1 percent, from $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was due mainly to a 64 bps increase in average cost, partially offset by a $673.0 million decrease in average balance. The increase in average cost was due to a rising interest rate environment.

Interest expense on securities sold under repurchase agreements was $180 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $209 thousand, or 53.7 percent, from $389 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The Company utilized a decreased amount of repurchase agreements during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Interest expense on long term debt and other interest-bearing liabilities was $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $181 thousand, or 6.3 percent, from $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to a higher utilization of a line of credit with an unaffiliated third party financial institution that was voluntarily terminated by the Company on June 30, 2017, partially offset by a maturity of amortizing debt during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Six Months EndedJune 30, 2017 Compared to Six Months EndedJune 30, 2016

Net interest income was $162.0 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $10.6 million, or 7.0 percent, from $151.5 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The growth in net interest income from the prior period was largely due to higher interest income from higher average balances of interest-earning assets partially offset by higher interest expense on higher average balances of interest-bearing liabilities and lower average yield on total loans and leases.

Interest income on total loans and leases was $145.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $4.3 million, or 3.1 percent, from $140.9 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase in interest income on loans and leases was due to a $382.6 million increase in average total loans and leases, partially offset by a 12 bps decrease in average yield. The increase in average balance was due mainly to an increase in loan and lease originations, partially offset by sales of the Company's lease financing portfolio during the first quarter of 2017 and seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools during the second half of 2016. The decrease in average yield was mainly due to the sale of the Company's lease financing portfolio, which earned a higher yield than other loan portfolios, and a decrease in the proportion of seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools to total loans and leases, due to sales in 2016, where discounts on these pools generate additional interest income. The discount accretion totaled $4.2 million and $21.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Interest income on securities was $52.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $16.8 million, or 47.4 percent, from $35.4 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase in interest income on securities was due to a $776.9 million increase in average balance and a 35 bps increase in average yield. The increase in average balance was mainly due to purchases of securities to deploy the proceeds from the preferred stock and common stock offerings in 2016 and the deposit balance increase during the period. The increase in average yield was due to higher interest rates on newly purchased investment securities.

Dividends and interest income on other interest-earning assets was $3.9 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $1.3 million, or 51.9 percent, from $2.6 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase in dividends and interest income on other interest-earning assets was due to a $268.8 million increase in average balance, partially offset by a 60 bps decrease in average yield. The increase in average balance was mainly due to the excess cash from the common stock offerings during the second quarter of 2016 and deposit increase. The decrease in average yield was mainly due to an increase in interest-earning deposits in financial institutions, which earn lower yields than other interest-earning assets.

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was $28.9 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $12.4 million, or 75.2 percent, from $16.5 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits resulted from a $1.84 billion increase in average balance and a 19 bps increase in average cost. The increase in average balance was mainly due to strong deposit growth across the Company's business units as well as an increased average balance per account. The Company also strategically added brokered certificates of deposit in order to maintain a sufficient level of deposit funding.

Interest expense on FHLB advances was $4.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $969 thousand, or 30.0 percent, from $3.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase was due mainly to a 44 bps increase in average cost, partially offset by a $407.6 million decrease in average balance. The increase in average cost was due to a rising interest rate environment.

Interest expense on securities sold under repurchase agreements was $186 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, a decrease of $363 thousand, or 66.1 percent, from $549 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The Company utilized a decreased amount of repurchase agreements during the six months endedJune 30, 2017.

Interest expense on long term debt and other interest-bearing liabilities was $6.0 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 15.9 percent, from $7.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The decrease was due mainly to the redemption of the Senior Notes I during the second quarter of 2016, maturity of amortizing debt during the second quarter of 2017, partially offset by a higher utilization of line of credit with an unaffiliated third party financial institution.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

Provisions for loan and lease losses are charged to operations at a level required to reflect inherent credit losses in the loan and lease portfolio. The Company recorded provisions for loan and lease losses of $2.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and $5.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016. The increase was mainly due to increases in commercial and industrial loans, construction loans and multi-family loans, partially offset by decreases in SFR mortgage loans and lease financing.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the PCI loans and the loan pools for potential impairment. The provision for losses on PCI loans is the result of changes in expected cash flows, both in amount and timing, due to loan payments and the Company’s revised loss forecasts. The revisions to the loss forecasts were based on the results of management’s review of the credit quality of the outstanding loans/loan pools and the analysis of the loan performance data since the acquisition of these loans. On a quarterly basis, the Company also evaluates whether a reforecast of cash flow projections is necessary. Due to the uncertainty in the future performance of the PCI loans, additional impairments may be recognized in the future.

At December 31, 2016 the Company accrued a liability for estimated discretionary incentive compensation payments to certain employees. The amount paid was less than the accrued liability. Consequently, the Company reversed the excess accrual and recorded a credit to salaries and employee benefits on the consolidated statements of operations of $7.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

The Company uses the flow-through income statement method to account for the investment tax credits earned on the solar investments. Under this method, the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense and the initial book-tax difference in the basis of the investments are recognized as additional tax expense in the year they are earned.

Discontinued Operations

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of the Banc Home Loans division, which largely represented the Company's Mortgage Banking segment. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-20, the Company determined that the sale of the Banc Home Loans division and certain other mortgage banking related assets and liabilities that will be sold or settled separately within one year met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation and its operating results and financial condition have been presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. Certain components of the Company’s Mortgage Banking segment including MSRs on certain conventional government SFR mortgage loans that were not sold as part of the Banc Home Loans sale, and the repurchase reserves related to previously sold loans, have been classified as continuing operations in the financial statements as they will continue to be part of the Company’s ongoing operations.

The Banc Home Loans division originated conforming SFR mortgage loans and sold these loans in the secondary market. The amount of net revenue on mortgage banking activities was a function of mortgage loans originated for sale and the fair values of these loans and related derivatives. Net revenue on mortgage banking activities included mark to market pricing adjustments on loan commitments and forward sales contracts, and initial capitalized value of MSRs.

Interest Income

Interest income of discontinued operations was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $915 thousand, or 24.7 percent, from $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, interest income of discontinued operations was $6.1 million, a decrease of $827 thousand, or 12.0 percent, from $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in average balance of loans held-for-sale of discontinued operations.

94

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income of discontinued operations was $14.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $28.6 million, or 67.0 percent, from $42.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest income of discontinued operations was $58.9 million, a decrease of $14.6 million, or 19.8 percent, from $73.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in net revenue from discontinued operations, partially offset by an increase in loan servicing income (loss) and a net gain on disposal of discontinued operations in 2017 periods.

Net gain on disposal of discontinued operations was $236 thousand and $13.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Loan servicing income (loss) was $0 and $1.6 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $(1.4) million and $(4.5) million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to high losses recognized on the fair value and runoff of servicing rights during the 2016 periods.

Net revenue on mortgage banking activities was $13.6 million and $43.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $43.8 million and $77.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Bank originated $575.5 million and $1.51 billion, respectively, and sold $814.1 million and $1.75 billion, respectively, of conforming SFR mortgage loans in the secondary market. The net gain and margin were $11.4 million and 1.98 percent, respectively, and loan origination fees were $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the net gain and margin were $37.6 million and 2.5 percent, respectively, and loan origination fees were $5.4 million. Included in the net gain is the initial capitalized value of our MSRs, which totaled $3.8 million and $11.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Bank originated $1.28 billion and $2.30 billion, respectively, and sold $1.30 billion and $2.27 billion, respectively, of conforming SFR mortgage loans in the secondary market. The net gain and margin were $38.9 million and 3.05 percent, respectively, and loan origination fees were $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the net gain and margin were $68.6 million and 2.98 percent, respectively, and loan origination fees were $8.9 million. Included in the net gain is the initial capitalized value of our MSRs, which totaled $12.4 million and $20.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense of discontinued operations was $21.9 million and $56.6 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $35.0 million and $65.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to decreases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing and advertising, partially offset by increases in professional fees and outside services fees and a restructuring expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Restructuring expense was $297 thousand and $3.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. In connection with the sale of Banc Home Loans division, the Company restructured certain aspects of its infrastructure and back office operations by realigning back office staffing and amending certain system contracts in order to improve the Company's efficiency.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Investment Securities

Investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale in accordance with GAAP. Investment securities that the Company has the ability and the intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. All other securities are classified as available-for-sale. Investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at their estimated fair values with the changes in fair values recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, as a component of stockholders’ equity. At June 30, 2017, all of the Company’s investment securities were classified as available-for-sale.

The primary goal of our investment securities portfolio is to provide a relatively stable source of interest income while satisfactorily managing risk, including credit risk, reinvestment risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. Certain investment securities provide a source of liquidity as collateral for FHLB advances, repurchase agreements, certain public funds deposits, and for Federal Reserve Discount Window availability.

The following table presents the amortized cost and fair value of the investment securities portfolio as of the dates indicated:

	June 30, 2017							December 31, 2016

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company evaluated its securities held-to-maturity and determined that certain securities no longer adhere to the Company’s strategic focus and could be sold or reinvested to potentially improve the Company’s liquidity position or duration profile. Accordingly, the Company was no longer able to assert that it had the intent to hold these securities until maturity. As a result, the Company transferred all $740.9 million of its securities held-to-maturity to securities available-for-sale which resulted in a pre-tax increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $22.0 million. Due to the transfer, the Company’s ability to assert that it has the intent and ability to hold to maturity debt securities will be limited for the foreseeable future.

Securities available-for-sale were $2.92 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $533.6 million, or 22.4 percent, from $2.38 billion at December 31, 2016. The increase was mainly due to purchases of $666.8 million and transfers from securities held-to-maturity of $740.9 million, partially offset by sales of $806.3 million, calls and pay-offs of $75.8 million and principal payments of $23.0 million. Securities available-for-sale had a net unrealized gain of $15.2 million at June 30, 2017, compared to a net unrealized loss of $15.5 million at December 31, 2016. The Company continued to reposition its securities available-for-sale portfolio to navigate a volatile rate environment, reduce the overall duration of its securities portfolio and enhance the consistency and predictability of its earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

96

Collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) totaled $1.84 billion and $1.73 billion, respectively, in amortized cost basis at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. CLOs are floating rate debt securities backed by pools of senior secured commercial loans to a diverse group of companies across a broad spectrum of industries. Underlying loans are generally secured by a company’s assets such as inventory, equipment, property, and/or real estate. CLOs are structured to diversify exposure to a broad sector of industries. The payments on these commercial loans support interest and principal on the CLOs across classes that range from AAA rated to equity tranches.

The Company believes that its CLO portfolio, consisting entirely of variable rate securities, supports the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy by lowering the extension risk and duration risk inherent to certain fixed rate investment securities. At June 30, 2017, the Company owned AAA and AA rated CLOs and did not own CLOs rated below AA. As all CLOs are also rated above investment grade credit ratings and were diversified across issuers, the Company believes that these CLOs enhance the Company's liquidity position. The Company also maintains pre-purchase due diligence and ongoing review processes by a dedicated credit administration team. The ongoing review process includes monitoring of performance factors including external credit ratings, collateralization levels, collateral concentration levels and other performance factors. The Company only acquires CLOs that are Volcker Rule compliant.

The Company did not record OTTI for investment securities for the three months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. The Company monitors its securities portfolio to ensure it has adequate credit support. As of June 30, 2017, the Company believed there was no OTTI and did not have the intent to sell these securities and, for securities with fair value below amortized cost at June 30, 2017, it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. The Company considers the lowest credit rating for identification of potential OTTI. As of June 30, 2017, all of the Company's investment securities in an unrealized loss position received an investment grade credit rating.

Loans Held-for-Sale

Total loans held-for-sale on a consolidated operations basis were $439.6 million and $704.7 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Loans held-for-sale consisted of two components; loans held-for-sale carried at fair value and loans held-for-sale carried at lower of cost or fair value.

Loans held-for-sale carried at fair value are mainly conforming SFR mortgage loans originated through the Company's mortgage banking activities. Loans held-for-sale carried at fair value on a consolidated operations basis were $181.6 million and $417.0 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The $235.3 million, or 56.4 percent, decrease was mainly due to originations of $1.52 billion and repurchases of $66.8 million, partially offset by sales of $1.77 billion. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Banc Home Loans division, which reflected the Company's Mortgage Banking segment, and determined that the sale of Mortgage Banking segment met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation. Loans held-for-sale carried at fair value related to the Banc Home Loans division were transferred to Assets of Discontinued Operations on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Such loans totaled $160.2 million and $406.3 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Loans held-for-sale carried at the lower of cost or fair value are mainly non-conforming jumbo mortgage loans. Loans held-for-sale carried at lower of cost or fair value on a consolidated operations basis was $258.0 million and $287.7 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company also sells seasoned SFR mortgage loans opportunistically and to appropriately match asset and liability maturities.

The $29.7 million, or 10.3 percent, decrease was due mainly to sales of $626.4 million and paydowns and amortization of $21.8 million, partially offset by originations of $71.5 million and loans transferred from loans and leases receivable of $547.1 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company transferred seasoned SFR mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal and aggregate carrying value of $168.3 million and $147.9 million, respectively, to loans held-for-sale in order to improve the credit quality of the loan portfolio and provide additional liquidity. The Company transferred these loans at lower of cost or fair value and recorded a fair value adjustment of $1.8 million against its ALLL. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of these loans was $146.1 million. The Company expects to sell these loans at a gain, which should sufficiently offset the recorded fair value adjustment.

Seasoned SFR Mortgage Loan Acquisitions

The Company did not purchase any seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools during the six months ended June 30, 2017. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company completed a seasoned SFR mortgage loan pool acquisition with unpaid principal balances and fair values of $103.8 million and $91.0 million, respectively, at their acquisition date. The Company determined that loans in this seasoned SFR mortgage loan acquisition reflect credit quality deterioration since origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected. The Company acquired these loans at a discount to both current property value and note balance at acquisition.

The total unpaid principal balance and carrying value of the seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools were $177.1 million and $155.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016. The total unpaid principal balance and carrying value of PCI loans included in these pools were $153.9 million and $133.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016.

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, approximately 3.37 percent and 4.42 percent of unpaid principal balance of the seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools were delinquent 60 or more days, respectively, and 3.47 percent and 2.39 percent were in bankruptcy or foreclosure, respectively.

As part of the acquisition program, the Company may sell from time to time seasoned SFR mortgage loans that do not meet the Company’s investment standards. The Company also sells seasoned SFR mortgage loans opportunistically and to appropriately match asset and liability maturities. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company transferred seasoned SFR mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance and aggregate carrying value of $168.3 million and $147.9 million, respectively, to loans held-for-sale in order to improve the credit quality of the loan portfolio and provide additional liquidity. The Company transferred these loans at lower of cost or fair value and recorded a fair value adjustment of $1.8 million against its ALLL. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of these loans was $146.1 million. This transfer included PCI loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance and aggregate carrying value of $147.5 million and $128.4 million, respectively, and recorded a fair value adjustment of $274 thousand. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of transferred PCI loans was $128.1 million. The Company expects to sell these loans at a gain, which should sufficiently offset the recorded fair value adjustment.

100

Non-Traditional Mortgage Portfolio

The Company’s NTM portfolio is comprised of three interest only products: Green Loans, Interest Only loans and a small number of additional loans with the potential for negative amortization. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the NTM portfolio totaled $773.0 million, or 13.0 percent of the total gross loan portfolio, and $885.1 million, or 14.7 percent of the total gross loan portfolio, respectively. The total NTM portfolio decreased by $112.1 million, or 12.7 percent during the period. The decrease was primarily due to paydowns and amortization of $92.7 million and loans transferred to held-for-sale of $96.7 million, partially offset by originations of $88.4 million of Interest Only loans.

The initial credit guidelines for the NTM portfolio were established based on the borrower's FICO score, LTV ratio, property type, occupancy type, loan amount, and geography. Additionally, from an ongoing credit risk management perspective, the Company has determined that the most significant performance indicators for NTMs are LTV ratios and FICO scores. The Company reviews the NTM loan portfolio periodically, which includes refreshing FICO scores on the Green Loans and HELOCs and ordering third party AVM to confirm collateral values.

Green Loans

The Company discontinued the origination of Green Loan products in 2011. Green Loans are SFR first and second mortgage lines of credit with a linked checking account that allows all types of deposits and withdrawals to be performed. The loans are generally interest only with a 15-year balloon payment due at maturity. The Company initiated the Green Loan products in 2005 and proactively refined underwriting and credit management practices and credit guidelines in response to changing economic environments, competitive conditions and portfolio performance. The Company continues to manage credit risk, to the extent possible, throughout the borrower’s credit cycle.

Green Loans totaled $86.0 million at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $5.0 million, or 5.5 percent from $91.0 million at December 31, 2016, primarily due to reductions in principal balances and payoffs. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, none of the Company’s Green Loans were non-performing. As a result of their unique payment feature, Green Loans possess higher credit risk due to the potential of negative amortization; however, management believes the risk is mitigated through the Company’s loan terms and underwriting standards, including its policies on loan-to-value ratios and the Company’s contractual ability to curtail loans when the value of underlying collateral declines.

The Green Loans are similar to HELOCs in that they are collateralized primarily by the equity in the borrower's home. However, some Green Loans are subject to differences from HELOCs relating to certain characteristics including one-action laws. Similar to Green Loans, HELOCs allow the borrower to draw down on the credit line based on an established loan amount for a period of time, typically 10 years, requiring an interest only payment with an option to pay principal at any time. A typical HELOC provides that at the end of the term the borrower can continue to make monthly principal and interest payments based on the loan balance until the maturity date. The Green Loan is an interest only loan with a maturity of 15 years, at which time the loan comes due and payable with a balloon payment at maturity. The unique payment structure also differs from a traditional HELOC in that payments are made through the direct linkage of a personal checking account to the loan through a nightly sweep of funds into the Green Loan Account. This reduces any outstanding balance on the loan by the total amount deposited into the checking account. As a result, every time a deposit is made, effectively a payment to the Green Loan is made. HELOCs typically do not cause the loan to be paid down by a borrower’s depositing of funds into their checking account at the same bank.

Credit guidelines for Green Loans were established based on borrower FICO scores, property type, occupancy type, loan amount, and geography. Property types include single family residences and second trust deeds where the Company owned the first liens, owner occupied as well as non-owner occupied properties. The Company utilized its underwriting guidelines for first liens to underwrite the Green Loan secured by second trust deeds as if the combined loans were a single Green Loan. For all Green Loans, the loan income was underwritten using either full income documentation or alternative income documentation.

Interest Only Loans

Interest only loans are primarily SFR mortgage loans with payment features that allow interest only payment in initial periods before converting to a fully amortizing loan. Interest only loans totaled $683.2 million at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $101.1 million, or 12.9 percent, from $784.4 million at December 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to paydowns and amortization of $92.7 million and loans transferred to held-for-sale of $96.7 million, partially offset by originations of $88.4 million. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $0 thousand and $467 thousand of the interest only loans were non-performing, respectively.

101

Loans with the Potential for Negative Amortization

Negative amortization loans other than Green Loans totaled $3.8 million at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $6.0 million, or 61.5 percent, from $9.8 million as of December 31, 2016. The Company discontinued origination of negative amortization loans in 2007. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, none of the loans that had the potential for negative amortization were non-performing. These loans pose a potentially higher credit risk because of the lack of principal amortization and potential for negative amortization; however, management believes the risk is mitigated through the loan terms and underwriting standards, including the Company’s policies on loan-to-value ratios.

NTM Loan Credit Risk Management

The Company performs detailed reviews of collateral values on loans collateralized by residential real property including its NTM portfolio based on appraisals or estimates from third party AVMs to analyze property value trends periodically. AVMs are used to identify loans that have experienced potential collateral deterioration. Once a loan has been identified that may have experienced collateral deterioration, the Company will obtain updated drive by or full appraisals in order to confirm the valuation. This information is used to update key monitoring metrics such as LTV ratios. Additionally, FICO scores are obtained in conjunction with the collateral analysis. In addition to LTV ratios and FICO scores, the Company evaluates the portfolio on a specific loan basis through delinquency and portfolio charge-offs to determine whether any risk mitigation or portfolio management actions are warranted. The borrowers may be contacted as necessary to discuss material changes in loan performance or credit metrics.

The Company’s risk management policy and credit monitoring includes reviewing delinquency, FICO scores, and collateral values on the NTM loan portfolio. The Company also continuously monitors market conditions for our geographic lending areas. The Company has determined that the most significant performance indicators for NTM are LTV ratios and FICO scores. The loan review provides an effective method of identifying borrowers who may be experiencing financial difficulty before they fail to make a loan payment. Upon receipt of the updated FICO scores, an exception report is run to identify loans with a decrease in FICO score of 10 percent or more and a resulting FICO score of 620 or less. The loans are then further analyzed to determine if the risk rating should be downgraded, which may require an increase in the ALLL the Company needs to establish for potential losses. A report is prepared and regularly monitored.

On the interest only loans, the Company projects future payment changes to determine if there will be an increase in payment of 3.50 percent or greater and then monitors the loans for possible delinquencies. The individual loans are monitored for possible downgrading of risk rating, and trends within the portfolio are identified that could affect other interest only loans scheduled for payment changes in the near future.

As these loans are revolving lines of credit, the Company, based on the loan agreement and loan covenants of the particular loan, as well as applicable rules and regulations, could suspend the borrowing privileges or reduce the credit limit at any time the Company reasonably believes that the borrower will be unable to fulfill their repayment obligations under the agreement or certain other conditions are met. In many cases, the decrease in FICO score is the first red flag that the borrower may have difficulty in making their future payment obligations.

As a result, the Company proactively manages the portfolio by performing a detailed analysis with emphasis on the non-traditional mortgage portfolio. The Company’s Internal Asset Review Committee (IARC) conducts regular meetings to review the loans classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful and determines whether suspension or reduction in credit limit is warranted. If the line has been suspended and the borrower would like to have their credit privileges reinstated, they would need to provide updated financials showing their ability to meet their payment obligations. From the most recent review completed during the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the Company made no curtailment in available commitments on Green Loans.

Consumer and NTM loans may entail greater risk than do traditional SFR mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles and recreational vehicles. In these cases, any repossessed collateral for a consumer and NTM loan are more dependent on the borrower‘s continued financial stability and, thus, are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness, or personal bankruptcy.

(1) Excluded from non-performing loans

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due, unless management believes the loan is adequately collateralized and in the process of collection. Past due loans may or may not be adequately collateralized, but collection efforts are continuously pursued. Loans may be restructured by management when a borrower experiences changes to their financial condition, causing an inability to meet the original repayment terms, and where we believe the borrower will eventually overcome those circumstances and repay the loan in full.

Additional income of approximately $124 thousand and $226 thousand would have been recorded during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, respectively, had these loans been paid in accordance with their original terms throughout the periods indicated.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

TDRs of loans are defined by ASC 310-40, “Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors” and ASC 470-60, “Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors” and evaluated for impairment in accordance with ASC 310-10-35. The concessions may be granted in various forms, including reduction in the stated interest rate, reduction in the amount of principal amortization, forgiveness of a portion of a loan balance or accrued interest, or extension of the maturity date. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy.

TDR loans consist of the following as of the dates indicated:

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The Company maintains an ALLL to absorb probable incurred losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. The ALLL is based on ongoing assessment of the estimated probable losses presently inherent in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the ALLL, management considers the types of loans and leases and the amount of loans and leases in the portfolio, peer group information, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. This methodology takes into account many factors, including the Company’s own historical and peer loss trends, loan and lease-level credit quality ratings, loan and lease specific attributes along with a review of various credit metrics and trends. The process involves subjective as well as complex judgments. In addition, the Company uses adjustments for numerous factors including those found in the federal banking agencies' joint Interagency Policy Statement on ALLL, which include current economic conditions, loan and lease seasoning, underwriting experience, and collateral value changes among others. The Company evaluates all impaired loans and leases individually using guidance from ASC 310 primarily through the evaluation of cash flows or collateral values. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company, as part of its continuous evaluation of the ALLL methodology and assumptions, determined it appropriate to change from a rolling 28-quarter look-back period to a pegged 36-quarter look-back period. The Company believes that an extended period of observed credit loss stability warranted the review of a longer historical period that captured a full credit cycle. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2017, the Company's look-back-period was extended to 37-quarters. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company further enhanced the methodology of measuring qualitative reserves and updated loan segmentation. These updates were designed to be more systematic, transparent, and repeatable. These updates did not have a material impact.

The Company has acquired PCI loans through business acquisitions and purchases of seasoned SFR mortgage loan pools. The Company recognizes a provision for loan and lease losses when there is further credit deterioration in these loans resulting in a decrease in the cash flows expected to be collected. On a quarterly basis, the Company re-forecasts its expected cash flows for the PCI loans. The provision for PCI loans reflects a decrease in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated. The impairment reserve for PCI loans was $24 thousand and $104 thousand at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Provision for loan and lease losses was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $734 thousand, or 41.5 percent, from $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Provision for loan and lease losses was $5.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, an increase of $3.0 million, or 143.3 percent, from $2.1 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2016. The increase was mainly due to increases in commercial and industrial loans, construction loans and multi-family loans, partially offset by decreases in SFR mortgage loans and lease financing.

Servicing Rights

Total mortgage and SBA servicing rights were $43.8 million and $77.6 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair value of the MSRs amounted to $42.1 million and $76.1 million and the amortized cost of the SBA servicing rights was $1.7 million and $1.5 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company retains servicing rights from certain of its sales of SFR mortgage loans and SBA loans.

The aggregate principal balance of the loans underlying our total MSRs and SBA servicing rights was $4.40 billion and $87.4 million, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and $7.58 billion and $74.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016. The recorded amount of the MSR and SBA servicing rights as a percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the loans we are servicing was 0.96 percent and 1.97 percent, respectively, at June 30, 2017 as compared to 1.00 percent and 2.02 percent, respectively, at December 31, 2016.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into a flow-agreement establishing general terms for the purchase and sale to a third party MSR investor in connection with residential mortgage loan sales to GSEs. The flow-agreement allowed the Company to sell its MSRs to a third party MSR investor contemporaneous with the Company’s sales of its servicing retained residential mortgages to the GSEs. Accordingly, entering into the flow-agreement reduced the impact of volatility associated with the Company's MSRs by allowing the Company to sell its MSRs immediately, thus reducing the Company's exposure to market and other conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company suspended sales of MSRs under the flow-agreement. The Company does not expect to resume sales under the flow-agreement as it has discontinued its Mortgage Banking segment operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company sold $37.8 million of MSRs recognized as a part of discontinued operations.

Alternative Energy Partnerships

The Company invests in certain alternative energy partnerships (limited liability companies) formed to provide sustainable energy projects that are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits (energy tax credits) and other tax benefits. The investment helps promote the development of renewable energy sources and help lower the cost of housing for residents by lowering homeowners’ monthly utility costs.

As the Company’s respective investments in these entities are more than minor, the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the investee’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance. As a result, the Company is required to apply the equity method of accounting, which generally prescribes applying the percentage ownership interest to the investee’s GAAP net income in order to determine the investor’s earnings or losses in a given period. However, because the liquidation rights, tax credit allocations and other benefits to investors can change upon the occurrence of specified events, application of the equity method based on the underlying ownership percentages would not accurately represent the Company’s investment. As a result, the Company applies the HLBV method of the equity method of accounting.

The HLBV method is a balance sheet approach where a calculation is prepared at each balance sheet date to estimate the amount that the Company would receive if the equity investment entity were to liquidate all of its assets (as valued in accordance with GAAP) and distribute that cash to the investors based on the contractually defined liquidation priorities. The difference between the calculated liquidation distribution amounts at the beginning and the end of the reporting period, after adjusting for capital contributions and distributions, is the Company’s share of the earnings or losses from the equity investment for the period.

The following table presents the activity related to the Company’s investment in alternative energy partnerships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017:

	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2017			June 30, 2017
	(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	47,633		$	25,639
New funding	13			30,940
Cash distribution from investments	(280		)	(531		)
Loss on investments using HLBV method	(9,761		)	(18,443		)
Balance at end of period	$	37,605		$	37,605
Unfunded equity commitments	$	111,719		$	111,719

The Company’s investments in alternative energy partnerships are primarily returned through the realization of energy tax credits and other tax benefits rather than through distributions or through the sale of the investment. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized energy tax credits of $15.7 million and $24.5 million, respectively, offset by $2.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively, of deferred tax expenses in connection with new equipment being placed into service as well as income tax benefits of $3.9 million and $7.5 million, respectively, (based on a current effective tax rate of 39.89 percent and 40.43 percent, respectively which excludes the foregoing energy tax credits and related deferred tax expense) related to the recognition of its loss through its HLBV application.

The HLBV loss for the period is largely driven by accelerated tax depreciation on equipment and the recognition of energy tax credits which reduces the amount distributable by the investee in a hypothetical liquidation under the contractual liquidation provisions.

Total deposits	$	8,044,911	$	9,142,150	$	(1,097,239	)	(12.0	)%

Total deposits were $8.04 billion at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $1.10 billion, or 12.0 percent, from $9.14 billion at December 31, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to a planned reduction of brokered deposits and outflows from the Company's private banking, institutional banking and commercial banking business units. Brokered deposits were$1.44 billion at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $811.9 million, or 36.1 percent, from $2.25 billion at December 31, 2016.

Borrowings

The Company utilizes FHLB advances and securities sold under repurchase agreements to leverage its capital base, to provide funds for its lending activities, as a source of liquidity, and to enhance its interest rate risk management. The Company also maintains additional borrowing availabilities from FRB discount window and unsecured federal funds lines of credit.

FHLB advances totaled $870.0 million and $490.0 million, respectively, and securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $53.2 million and $0, respectively, at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. On June 30, 2017, the Company voluntarily terminated a line of credit of $75.0 million that it maintained at the holding company level with an unaffiliated financial institution. The line had a maturity date of July 17, 2017. The Company had $50 million of borrowings outstanding under the line, which were repaid in connection with the termination of the line. For additional information, see Note 9 to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments

The Company maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that is considered adequate to cover the estimated and known inherent risks. The probability of usage of the unfunded loan commitments and credit risk factors are determined based on the outstanding loan balance of the same customer or outstanding loans that share similar credit risk exposure. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was $4.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The increase was mainly due to an increase in unfunded loan commitments.

The following table presents a summary of activity in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Reserve for Loss on Repurchased Loans

Reserve for loss on repurchased loans was $8.0 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. This reserve relates to the Company's mortgage banking activities. When the Company sells residential mortgage loans into the secondary mortgage market, the Company makes customary representations and warranties to the purchasers about various characteristics of each loan, such as the manner of origination, the nature and extent of underwriting standards applied and the types of documentation being provided. Typically, these representations and warranties are in place for the life of the loan. If a defect in the origination process is identified, the Company may be required to either repurchase the loan or indemnify the purchaser for losses it sustains on the loan. If there are no such defects, generally the Company has no liability to the purchaser for losses it may incur on such loan. In addition, the Company has the option to buy out severely delinquent loans at par from Ginnie Mae pools for which the Company is the servicer and issuer of the pool. The Company maintains a reserve for losses on repurchased loans to account for the expected losses related to loans the Company might be required to repurchase (or the indemnity payments the Company may have to make to purchasers). The reserve takes into account both the estimate of expected losses on loans sold during the current accounting period, as well as adjustments to the previous estimates of expected losses on loans sold. In each case, these estimates are based on the most recent data available, including data from third parties, regarding demand for loan repurchases, actual loan repurchases, and actual credit losses on repurchased loans, among other factors.

Provisions added to the reserve for loss on repurchased loans are initially recorded against net revenue on mortgage banking activities at the time of sale, and any subsequent increase or decrease in the provision is then recorded under non-interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an increase or decrease to provision for loan repurchases.

The following table presents a summary of activity in the reserve for losses on repurchased loans for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2017			2016			2017			2016
	(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	8,118		$	9,781		$	7,974		$	9,700

Balance at end of period	$	8,028		$	10,438		$	8,028		$	10,438

In addition to the reserve for losses on repurchased loans at June 30, 2017, the Company may receive repurchase demands in future periods that could be material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company believes that all known or probable and estimable demands were adequately reserved at June 30, 2017.

Liquidity Management

The Company is required to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure a safe and sound operation. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, the Company has maintained liquid assets above levels believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows, and dividend payments. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to ensure that adequate liquidity is maintained.

Banc of California, N.A.

The Bank's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents and securities available-for-sale, is a product of its operating, investing, and financing activities. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, payments and maturities of outstanding loans and investment securities; and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and investment securities, and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. In addition, the Bank invests excess funds in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Bank also generates cash through borrowings. The Bank mainly utilizes FHLB advances and securities sold under repurchase agreements to leverage its capital base, to provide funds for its lending activities, as a source of liquidity, and to enhance its interest rate risk management. The Bank also has the ability to obtain brokered deposits and collect deposits through the wholesale and treasury operations. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Any excess liquidity is typically invested in federal funds or investment securities. On a longer-term basis, the Bank maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products. The Bank uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing loan and other commitments, and to pay maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals.

Banc of California, Inc.

The primary sources of funds for Banc of California, Inc., on a stand-alone holding company basis, are dividends and intercompany tax payments from the Bank, outside borrowing, and its ability to raise capital and issue debt securities. Dividends from the Bank are largely dependent upon the Bank's earnings and are subject to restrictions under certain regulations that limit its ability to transfer funds to the holding company. OCC regulations impose various restrictions on the ability of a bank to make capital distributions, which include dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, and certain other items. Generally, a well-capitalized bank may make capital distributions during any calendar year equal to up to 100 percent of net income for the year-to-date plus retained net income for the two preceding years without prior OCC approval. On this basis, at June 30, 2017, the Bank had $240.9 million available to pay dividends to the holding company. At June 30, 2017, Banc of California, Inc. had $59.8 million in cash, all of which was on deposit at the Bank.

On a consolidated basis, the Company maintained $511.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, which was 4.9 percent of total assets at June 30, 2017. The Company also maintained $1.1 million of unpledged securities available-for-sale issued by U.S. Treasury and direct government obligations at June 30, 2017, which the Company considers in its assessment of cash and cash equivalents as they are highly liquid. These securities and cash and cash equivalents together represented 4.9 percent of total assets as of June 30, 2017. The Company maintained unpledged securities available-for-sale of $2.15 billion at June 30, 2017.

At June 30, 2017, the Bank had available unused secured borrowing capacities of $1.36 billion from FHLB and $187.3 million from Federal Reserve Discount Window, as well as $210.0 million from unused unsecured federal funds lines of credit at the Bank. The Bank also maintained repurchase agreements and $53.2 million of outstanding securities sold under agreements to repurchase at June 30, 2017. Availabilities and terms on repurchase agreements are subject to the counterparties' discretion and pledging additional investment securities.

On June 30, 2017, the Company voluntarily terminated a line of credit of $75.0 million with an unaffiliated financial institution, which was maintained by Banc of California, Inc. The line originally had a maturity date of July 17, 2017.

The Company believes that its liquidity sources are stable and are adequate to meet its day-to-day cash flow requirements. As of June 30, 2017, the Company believes that there are no events, uncertainties, material commitments, or capital expenditures that were reasonably likely to have a material effect on its liquidity position.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Bank entered into certain definitive agreements which grant the Bank the exclusive naming rights to the soccer stadium of LAFC as well as the right to be the official bank of LAFC. In exchange for the Bank’s rights as set forth in the agreements, the Bank agreed to pay LAFC $100.0 million over a period of 15 years, beginning in 2017 and ending in 2032. As of June 30, 2017, the Company paid $10.0 million of the commitment.

The Company had unfunded commitments of $18.4 million, $11.8 million, and $111.7 million for Affordable House Fund Investment, SBIC, and Other Investments including investments in alternative energy partnerships at June 30, 2017, respectively.

112

Capital

In order to maintain adequate level of capital, the Company continuously assesses projected sources and uses of capital to support projected asset growth, operating needs and credit risk. The Company considers, among other things, earnings generated from operations and access to capital from financial markets through issuing additional preferred and common stock to meet the Company's capital requirements for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company performs capital stress tests on an annual basis to assess the impact of adverse changes in the economy on the Company's capital base.

Regulatory Capital

The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulatory capital adequacy guidelines that are established by the Federal banking regulators. In July 2013, the Federal banking regulators approved a final rule to implement the revised capital adequacy standards of the Basel III and to address relevant provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rule strengthens the definition of regulatory capital, increases risk-based capital requirements, makes selected changes to the calculation of risk-weighted assets, and adjusts the prompt corrective action thresholds. The Company and the Bank became subject to the new rule on January 1, 2015 and certain provisions of the new rule will be phased in through 2019. For additional information on BASEL III capital rules, see Note 16 to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following table presents the regulatory capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as of dates indicated:

	Banc of California, Inc.		Banc of California, NA		Minimum Regulatory Requirements		Well Capitalized Requirements (Bank)
June 30, 2017
Total risk-based capital ratio	14.39	%	16.13	%	8.00	%	10.00	%
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio	13.72	%	15.45	%	6.00	%	8.00	%
Common equity tier 1 capital ratio	9.83	%	15.45	%	4.50	%	6.50	%
Tier 1 leverage ratio	8.93	%	10.05	%	4.00	%	5.00	%
December 31, 2016
Total risk-based capital ratio	13.70	%	14.73	%	8.00	%	10.00	%
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio	13.22	%	14.12	%	6.00	%	8.00	%
Common equity tier 1 capital ratio	9.44	%	14.12	%	4.50	%	6.50	%
Tier 1 leverage ratio	8.17	%	8.71	%	4.00	%	5.00	%

In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act requires publicly-traded bank holding companies with assets of $10 billion or more to perform capital stress testing and establish a risk committee responsible for enterprise-wide risk management practices, comprised of independent directors, including one risk management expert. These provisions become applicable if the average of the total consolidated assets of the bank holding company, as reported in its quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements for Bank Holding Companies, for the four most recent consecutive quarters exceed $10 billion. The Dodd-Frank Act Stress Tests (DFAST) stress tests are designed to determine whether the capital planning of the Company, assessment of its capital adequacy and risk management practices adequately protect it and its affiliates in the event of an economic downturn. The Company must establish adequate internal controls, documentation, policies and procedures to ensure the annual stress test adequately meets these objectives. The board of directors of the Company will be required to review the Company’s policies and procedures at least annually. The Company will be required to report the results of its annual stress tests to the Federal Reserve, and it will be required to consider the results of the Company’s stress tests as part of its capital planning and risk management practices. If a bank holding company fails DFAST when it is a mandatorily compliant, then such failure could result in, for example, restrictions on the Company’s growth, its ability to both pay dividends and repurchase shares.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our Risk When Interest Rates Change. The rates of interest we earn on assets and pay on liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Market interest rates change over time. Accordingly, our results of operations, like those of other financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities. The risk associated with changes in interest rates and our ability to adapt to these changes is known as interest rate risk and is our most significant market risk.

How We Measure Our Risk of Interest Rate Changes. As part of our attempt to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates and comply with applicable regulations, we monitor our interest rate risk. In monitoring interest rate risk we continually analyze and manage assets and liabilities based on their payment streams and interest rates, the timing of their maturities and/or prepayments, and their sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates.

In order to manage the potential for adverse effects of material and prolonged increases in interest rates on our results of operations, we adopted asset and liability management policies to better align the maturities and repricing terms of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. These policies are implemented by the asset and liability management committee. The asset and liability management committee is chaired by the treasurer and is comprised of members of our senior management. Asset and liability management policies establish guidelines for the volume and mix of assets and funding sources taking into account relative costs and spreads, interest rate sensitivity and liquidity needs, while the asset liability management committee monitors adherence to these guidelines. The objectives are to manage assets and funding sources to produce results that are consistent with liquidity, capital adequacy, growth, risk, and profitability goals. The asset and liability management committee meets periodically to review, among other things, economic conditions and interest rate outlook, current and projected liquidity needs and capital position, anticipated changes in the volume and mix of assets and liabilities and interest rate risk exposure limits versus current projections pursuant to our net present value of equity analysis. At each meeting, the asset and liability management committee recommends appropriate strategy changes based on this review. The treasurer or his/her designee is responsible for reviewing and reporting on the effects of the policy implementations and strategies to the board of directors on a regular basis.

In order to manage our assets and liabilities and achieve the desired liquidity, credit quality, interest rate risk, profitability and capital targets, we evaluate various strategies including:

• Originating and purchasing adjustable-rate mortgage loans,

• Originating shorter-term consumer loans,

• Managing the duration of investment securities,

• Managing our deposits to establish stable deposit relationships,

• Using FHLB advances and/or certain derivatives such as swaps to align maturities and repricing terms, and

• Managing the percentage of fixed-rate loans in our portfolio.

At times, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the asset and liability management committee may determine to change the Company’s interest rate risk position within the asset liability tolerance set by the Bank’s policies.

As part of its procedures, the asset and liability management committee regularly reviews interest rate risk by forecasting the impact of alternative interest rate environments on net interest income and market value of portfolio equity, which is defined as the net present value of an institution’s existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, and evaluating such impacts against the maximum potential changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio equity that are authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company.

114

Interest Rate Sensitivity of Economic Value of Equity and Net Interest Income

The following table presents the projected change in the Bank’s economic value of equity and net interest income at June 30, 2017 that would occur upon an immediate change in interest rates based on independent analysis, but without giving effect to any steps that management might take to counteract that change.

	June 30, 2017
Change in Interest Rates in Basis Points (bp) (1)	Economic Value of Equity							Net Interest Income
	Amount		Amount Change			Percentage Change		Amount		Amount Change			Percentage Change
	($ in thousands)
+200 bp	$	1,193,792	$	(100,022	)	(7.7	)%	$	301,461	$	764		0.3	%
+100 bp	1,256,226		(37,588		)	(2.9	)%	301,417		720			0.2	%
0 bp	1,293,814							300,697
-100 bp	1,300,392		6,578			0.5	%	297,818		(2,879		)	(1.0	)%

(1) Assumes an instantaneous uniform change in interest rates at all maturities

As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgage loans, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, if interest rates change, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates of deposit could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.

At June 30, 2017, the Company did not maintain any securities for trading purposes or engage in trading activities. The Company does use derivative instruments to hedge its mortgage banking risks. In addition, interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting the Company. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities and operations.

115

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Following this evaluation, due to the identification of a material weakness in the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as previously reported in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which is still in the process of being remediated, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2017. The material weakness was due to an inadequate tone at the top regarding the importance of internal control over financial reporting. This resulted in a failure to appropriately prioritize the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which has not been sufficient to address new and evolving sources of potential misstatement largely driven by the increased complexity and growth in the size and scale of our business.

Notwithstanding the identified material weakness as of June 30, 2017, related to the Company’s control environment, the Company believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have initiated various governance enhancements during the first and second quarters of 2017 as further described below. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as disclosed in our financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company completed the sale of its Banc Home Loans division, which largely represented the Company's Mortgage Banking segment. In connection with the sale, the Company restructured certain aspects of its infrastructure and back office operations to improve efficiency. These combined initiatives were determined to have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. We will continue to monitor internal control over financial reporting throughout the process.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

The Company's Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness

As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, management identified a material weakness in the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as it relates to our control environment due to an inadequate tone at the top regarding the importance of internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company’s tone at the top did not appropriately prioritize the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which has not been sufficient to address new and evolving sources of potential misstatement largely driven by the increased complexity and growth in the size and scale of the business.

116

The Company is in the process of remediating the inadequate tone at the top regarding the importance of internal control over financial reporting, and, in connection with the remediation, the Company has initiated or will initiate the following steps:

• We appointed Robert D. Sznewajs, the then-(now former) Chair of our Joint Audit Committee of the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank (the Board), to the position of Chair of the Board - thereby separating the role of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. This appointment followed the resignation of Steven A. Sugarman from the Board and his position of President and Chief Executive Officer.

• We appointed Douglas H. Bowers as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, and as a director of the Bank, effective May 8, 2017. We also appointed Mr. Bowers as a director of the Company; Mr. Bowers' term as a director of the Company commenced on June 9, 2017 at the conclusion of the Company's 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The terms of Mr. Bowers’ employment agreement with the Company require him to resign as a director of the Company and the Bank in the event of the termination of his employment. Mr. Bowers' appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer replaced the interim CEO and interim President appointments within the “Office of the CEO/President.”

• We eliminated the lead independent director and Board vice chair roles and appointed new independent Board members, Richard Lashley and W. Kirk Wycoff, to fill the vacancies created by the resignation of Mr. Sugarman and the retirement of Chad T. Brownstein as the former Vice Chair of the Board. We appointed Mr. Lashley as Chair of our Joint Audit Committee of the Board immediately following the conclusion of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, thereby allowing our Board Chair Robert Sznewajs more time to focus on the critical role of independent Board Chair.

• We also appointed two additional independent directors, Mary A. Curran and Bonnie G. Hill, whose terms commenced on June 9, 2017 at the conclusion of the Company's 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ms. Curran and Dr. Hill add diversity to the Board and broaden the Board’s expertise in risk management and corporate governance.

• We improved our Disclosure Controls and Procedures by implementing a new Disclosure Controls and Procedure Policy which expands internal approval requirements for public statements, and we revised the Company’s Disclosure Committee charter. In addition, we enhanced resources related to the Company’s Sarbanes-Oxley program by terminating the Director of Financial Controls and engaging a new Sarbanes-Oxley outsourcing vendor. Our Principal Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, who began during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, will oversee the program going forward, which will be subject to monitoring activities performed by the Company’s Internal Audit division.

• We enhanced the efficiency and transparency of our Board committees by eliminating the Executive and Strategic Committees of the Board, and separating the Compensation and Nominating/Governance Committees into two committees, with one committee focused on compensation-related matters and the other on nominating and corporate governance-related matters.

• We approved new policies to tighten controls on Outside Business Activities and to add rigor to the review of Related Party Transactions.

• We revised our Public Communications Policy to enhance the level of diligence and review in connection with our public disclosures and external communications.

• We enhanced our Recoupment policy to enable the Board to recover or cancel cash incentive compensation and equity awards from executive officers.

• We amended the Company’s bylaws to facilitate the submission by stockholders of director nominations and other proposals for future annual meetings, and to conform the majority voting standard for electing directors more closely to the advisory motion approved by stockholders at the 2016 Annual Meeting.

On June 12, 2017, following approval by the Company's stockholders at our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 9, 2017, we amended the Company's charter to:

• declassify the Company’s Board of Directors and provide for the annual election of all directors, to be phased-in over a three-year period,

• allow for removal of directors with or without cause by majority vote of the stockholders,

• authorize amendment of the Company’s bylaws by majority vote of the stockholders, provided that a two-thirds vote (which is a reduced supermajority requirement) is required to amend the bylaw provision regarding the calling of special meetings of stockholders, and

• remove all supermajority stockholder voting requirements to amend certain provisions of the Company’s charter.

117

• We have further enhanced our risk assessment and monitoring activities by implementing new training activities, improving our certification and sub-certification quarterly processes, and plan to further enhance our risk assessment and monitoring activities by hiring additional capable resources and enhancing our Risk and Fraud Risk assessment processes to ensure appropriate resources and controls are in place to mitigate risks commensurate with the risk assessment.

• We plan to continue to strengthen our governance and controls by further developing consistent, standardized and repeatable desktop procedures for all significant financial controls and processes.

The Company believes the foregoing remedial actions continue to strengthen the Company's internal control over financial reporting and will remediate the material weaknesses identified. However, as of June 30, 2017, these remediation measures were still ongoing and had not been in operation long enough to measure their operating effectiveness in order to conclude that the identified material weakness was fully remediated. The Company will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these remediation activities and expects to make further changes to improve its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are involved as plaintiff or defendant in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. On January 23, 2017, the first of three putative class action lawsuits, Garcia v. Banc of California, et al., Case No. 8:17-cv-00118, was filed against Banc of California, James J. McKinney, Ronald J. Nicolas, Jr., and Steven A. Sugarman in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Thereafter, two related putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California: (1) Malak v. Banc of California, et al., Case No. 8:17-cv-00138 (January 26, 2017), asserting claims against Banc of California, James J. McKinney, and Steven A. Sugarman, and (2) Cardona v. Banc of California, et al., Case No. 2:17-cv-00621 (January 26, 2017), asserting claims against Banc of California, James J. McKinney, Ronald J. Nicolas, Jr., and Steven A. Sugarman. The lawsuits allege that the defendants violated sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In general, they assert that the purported concealment of the defendants’ alleged relationship with Jason Galanis caused various statements made by the defendants to be allegedly false and misleading. The lawsuits purport to be brought on behalf of stockholders who purchased stock in the Company between varying dates, inclusive of August 7, 2015 through January 23, 2017. The lawsuits seek class certification, an award of unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, an award of reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, and other further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. The lawsuits are at a very early stage. Based on a review of the allegations, we believe that they are without merit and intend to vigorously contest them.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors that appeared under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and under “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017.

The Company has a practice of buying back stock for tax purposes pertaining to employee benefit plans, and does not count these purchases toward the allotment of the shares. The Company did not purchase any shares during the three months ended June 30, 2017 related to tax liability sales for employee stock benefit plans.
