(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments which are considered necessary to fairly present the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Certain items in prior periods were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc.'s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2012 Form 10-K”). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For further information with respect to significant accounting policies followed by the Company in preparation of its consolidated financial statements refer to the 2012 Form 10-K.

The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements include the accounts of ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc., whose business primarily consists of the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary, ViewPoint Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). Prior to its sale during the third quarter of 2012, the Bank's operations included its wholly owned subsidiary, ViewPoint Bankers Mortgage, Inc., doing business as ViewPoint Mortgage (“VPM”). The Bank's operations include the impact of the acquisition of Highlands Bancshares, Inc., which was completed on April 2, 2012. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 — EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, reduced for average unallocated ESOP shares and average unvested restricted stock awards. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (such as stock awards and options) were exercised or converted to common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the Company’s earnings. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period increased for the dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock awards. The dilutive effect of the unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock awards is calculated under the treasury stock method utilizing the average market value of the Company’s stock for the period. Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method described in ASC 260-10-45-60B. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per common share computation for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

877,500 and 80,000 stock options outstanding at March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, respectively, were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock and were, therefore, antidilutive.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment

In determining other-than-temporary impairment for debt securities, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The Company does not believe these unrealized losses to be other-than-temporary.

The allowance for loan losses and related provision expense are susceptible to change if the credit quality of our loan portfolio changes, which is evidenced by many factors, including but not limited to charge-offs and non-performing loan trends. Generally, one- to four-family residential real estate lending has a lower credit risk profile compared to consumer lending (such as automobile or personal line of credit loans). Commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending, however, have higher credit risk profiles than consumer and one- to four- family residential real estate loans due to these loans being larger in amount and non-homogeneous in structure and term. Changes in economic conditions, the mix and size of the loan portfolio and individual borrower conditions can dramatically impact our level of allowance for loan losses in relatively short periods of time.

Management evaluates current information and events regarding a borrower's ability to repay its obligations and considers a loan to be impaired when the ultimate collectability of amounts due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, is in doubt. If an impaired loan is collateral-dependent, the fair value of the collateral, less the estimated cost to sell, is used to determine the amount of impairment. If an impaired loan is not collateral-dependent, the impairment amount is determined using the negative difference, if any, between the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due. For impaired loans, the amount of the impairment can be adjusted, based on current data, until such time as the actual basis is established by acquisition of the collateral or until the basis is collected. Impairment losses are reflected in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts for accruing loans are applied to principal and interest under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash receipts on impaired loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are applied first to principal.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are estimated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. It is our estimate of credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of general and specific components. For the general component, we stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics and apply a loss ratio to these groups of loans to estimate the credit losses in the loan portfolio. We use both historical loss ratios and qualitative loss factors assigned to major loan collateral types to establish loss allocations. The historical loss ratio is generally defined as a percentage of net annual loan losses to average loans outstanding utilizing a 24 month rolling average. Qualitative loss factors are based on management's judgment of company-specific data and external economic indicators, which may not yet be reflected in the historical loss ratios, and how this information could impact the Company's specific loan portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee sets and adjusts qualitative loss factors by regularly reviewing changes in loan composition and the seasonality of specific portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee also considers credit quality and trends relating to delinquency, non-performing and/or classified loans and bankruptcy within the Company's loan portfolio when evaluating qualitative loss factors. Additionally, the Allowance for Loan Loss Committee adjusts qualitative factors to account for the potential impact of external economic factors, including the unemployment rate, housing price, vacancy rates and inventory levels specific to our primary market area.

For the specific component, the allowance for loan losses on individually analyzed impaired loans includes loans secured by mortgage and commercial and industrial loans where management has concerns about the borrower's ability to repay. Loss estimates include the negative difference, if any, between the current fair value of the collateral or the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due.

¹ Loans reported do not include PCI loans.

Loans that are past due 30 days or greater are considered delinquent. Interest income on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual

NOTE 4 — LOANS (Continued)

loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans. A loan is moved to nonaccrual status in accordance with the Company's policy, typically after 90 days of non-payment.

All interest accrued, but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status, is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cost recovery or cash-basis method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Loans past due over 90 days that were still accruing interest totaled $499 at March 31, 2013 and $593 at December 31, 2012, which consisted entirely of PCI loans. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, no PCI loans were considered non-performing loans. Purchased performing loans that were non-performing totaled $6,321 and $5,364 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Those loans included $3,020 and $3,159 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, of commercial lines of credit that did not qualify for PCI accounting due to their revolving nature. Non-performing (nonaccrual) loans were as follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Commercial real estate	$	12,696	$	13,609

A modified loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or collateral with similar credit risk characteristics. Modifications to loan terms may include a modification of the contractual interest rate to a below-market rate (even if the modified rate is higher than the original rate), forgiveness of accrued interest, forgiveness of a portion of principal, an extended repayment period or a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of assets other than cash to fully or partially satisfy a debt. The Company's policy is to place all TDRs on nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months. Loans qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement for a minimum of six months and the collection of principal and interest under the revised terms is deemed probable.

The outstanding balances of troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") are shown below:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012

For loans collateralized by real property and commercial and industrial loans, credit exposure is monitored by internally assigned grades used for classification of loans and other assets. A loan is considered “special mention” if it is a potential problem loan that is currently performing and does not meet the criteria for impairment, but where some concern exists. A loan is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” loans include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses of those classified as “substandard”, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” All other loans that do not fall into the above mentioned categories are considered “pass” loans. Updates to internally assigned grades are made monthly and/or upon significant developments.

For consumer loans, credit exposure is monitored by payment history of the loans. Non-performing consumer loans are on nonaccrual and are generally greater than 90 days past due.

NOTE 5 — FAIR VALUE

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, 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 standard 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 other 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: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant and unobservable in the market. These instruments are valued using the best information available, some of which is internally developed, and reflects a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the risk premiums that market participants would generally require and the assumptions they would use.

The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs.)

Prior to the Company's sale of VPM in the third quarter of 2012, interest income on certain mortgage loans held for sale was recognized based on contractual rates and reflected in interest income on mortgage loans held for sale in the consolidated income statement.

Other real estate owned	540		1,470		Third party appraisal	Discount of market value	0%-70% (17%)
						Estimated marketing costs	0%-7% (6%)

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral as determined by third party appraisals using recent comparative sales data. The fair value of the collateral is then adjusted for the Level 3 inputs described above. Impaired loans that are not collateral dependent are measured for impairmentby a discounted cash flow analysis using a net present value calculation utilizing data from the loan file before and after the modification.

Other real estate owned is measured at the lower of book or fair value less costs to sell. Other real estate owned that was valued using third party appraisals, listing agreements or sales contracts less actual costs to sell is classified as Level 2, while other real estate owned that was valued using third party appraisals, listing agreements or sales contracts less costs to sell and other Level 3 valuation inputs described in the above table is classified as Level 3.

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

Estimated fair value is the carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents, bank-owned life insurance and accrued interest receivable and payable. For loans, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market offering rates, estimated life, and applicable credit risk. For deposits and FHLB advances, fair value is calculated using the March 31, 2013 FHLB advance curve to discount cash flows for the estimated life for deposits and according to the contractual repayment schedule for FHLB advances. Fair value of the repurchase agreement is based on discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar borrowings would be made with similar terms and remaining maturities. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock due to restrictions on its transferability. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is based on the current fees or costs that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements and are not considered significant to this presentation.

NOTE 8 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

On June 5, 2012, the Bank and VPM, our former mortgage banking subsidiary, entered into a definitive agreement with Highlands Residential Mortgage, Ltd. (“HRM”) to sell substantially all of the assets of VPM to HRM, subject to certain closing conditions. The transaction closed in the third quarter of 2012.

The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, primarily distinguished between banking and VPM, our former mortgage banking subsidiary. Loans, investments and deposits generate the revenues in the banking segment; secondary marketing sales generated the revenue in the VPM segment.

NOTE 9 — RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU requires companies to report information about significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes. If an entity is unable to identify the line item of net income affected by any significant amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income during a reporting period (including when all reclassifications for the period are not to net income in their entirety), a company must present information about items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income in the notes. Companies that qualify for and present information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the face of the statement where net income is presented must present parenthetically: 1). the effect of significant reclassification items on the respective line items of net income by component of other comprehensive income and 2.) the aggregate tax effect of all significant reclassifications on the line item for income tax benefit/expense in the statement where net income is presented.For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and has included the required disclosures in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income included in this Form 10-Q.

Overview

The Company, a Maryland corporation, is a full stock holding company for its wholly owned subsidiary, ViewPoint Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”). Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this document to the “Company” refer to ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc. and references to the “Bank” refer to ViewPoint Bank, N.A. References to “we,” “us,” and “our” means ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc. or ViewPoint Bank, N.A. , as the context requires. The Company is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB") and the Bank is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) with certain back-up oversight by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank is required to have certain reserves and stock set by the FRB and is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, which is one of the 12 regional banks in the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System.

Our principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and the business community and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in commercial real estate loans, secured and unsecured commercial and industrial loans, as well as permanent loans secured by first and second mortgages on owner-occupied, one- to four-family residences and consumer loans. Additionally, the Warehouse Purchase Program allows mortgage banking company customers to close one- to four-family real estate loans in their own name and manage its cash flow needs until the loans are sold to investors. We also offer brokerage services for the purchase and sale of non-deposit investment and insurance products through a third party brokerage arrangement. Our operating revenues are derived principally from interest earned on interest-earning assets including loans and investment securities and service charges and fees on deposits and other account services. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings, and payments received on loans and securities. We offer a variety of deposit accounts, generally including savings, money market, term certificate and demand accounts, that provide a wide range of interest rates and terms.

Performance Highlights

• Continued success in commercial loan growth strategy: Our commercial loan portfolio, consisting of commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, provided solid growth as we continue to shift our focus to commercial lending. The commercial loan portfolio totaled $1.20 billion at March 31, 2013, up $81.6 million, or 7.3%, from December 31, 2012.

• Net interest margin increased by 34 basis points compared to first quarter 2012: Due to changes in the earning asset mix and lower deposit and borrowing rates, the net interest margin increased by 34 basis points to 3.64% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to 3.30% for the same period in 2012.

• Net charge-offs decline: Net charge-offs totaled $292,000 for the first quarter of 2013, down from $1.8 million and $359,000, respectively, for the quarters ended December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012.

• Net income increased by $986,000, or 13.9%: Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $8.1 million, an increase of $986,000, or 13.9%, from net income of $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in net income was driven by an increase in net interest income and was partially offset by higher non-interest expense and lower non-interest income. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013, were $0.21, a $0.01 decrease from $0.22 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain of our accounting estimates are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting estimates include determining the allowance for loan losses and other-than-temporary impairments in our securities portfolio. Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Allowance for Loan Loss. The allowance for loan losses and related provision expense are susceptible to change if the credit quality of our loan portfolio changes, which is evidenced by many factors, including but not limited to charge-offs and non-performing loan trends. Generally, one- to four-family residential mortgage lending has a lower credit risk profile compared to consumer lending (such as automobile or personal line of credit loans). Commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending, however, have higher credit risk profiles than consumer and one- to four- family residential mortgage loans due to these loans being larger in amount and non-homogenous in structure and term. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, changes, in economic conditions, the mix and size of the loan portfolio and individual borrower conditions can dramatically impact our level of allowance for loan losses in relatively short periods of time. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents our best estimate of inherent credit losses in the loan portfolio as of March 31, 2013.

Management evaluates current information and events regarding a borrower's ability to repay its obligations and considers a loan to be impaired when the ultimate collectability of amounts due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, is in doubt. If an impaired loan is collateral-dependent, the fair value of the collateral, less the estimated cost to sell, is used to determine the amount of impairment. If an impaired loan is not collateral-dependent, the impairment amount is determined using the negative difference, if any, between the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due. For impaired loans, the amount of the impairment can be adjusted, based on current data, until such time as the actual basis is established by acquisition of the collateral or until the basis is collected. Impairment losses are reflected in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts for accruing loans are applied to principal and interest under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash receipts on impaired loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are applied first to principal.

Other-than-Temporary Impairments. The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on at least a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic, market, or security specific concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether

29

downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The Company conducts regular reviews of the bond agency ratings of securities and considers whether the securities were issued by or have principal and interest payments guaranteed by the federal government or its agencies. These reviews focus on the underlying rating of the issuer and also include the insurance rating of securities that have an insurance component. The ratings and financial condition of the issuers are monitored, as well as the financial condition and ratings of the insurers.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012

General. Total assets decreased by $289.4 million, or 7.9%, to $3.37 billion at March 31, 2013, from $3.66 billion at December 31, 2012, primarily due to a $303.2 million, or 28.6%, decrease in loans held for sale and a $26.6 million, or 4.6%, decline in consumer loans. The decline in loans held for sale and consumer loans was partially offset by an increase of $57.6 million, or 6.9%, in commercial real estate loans, as well as a $23.9 million, or 8.6%, increase in commercial and industrial loans.

Loans. Gross loans (including $757.5 million in mortgage loans held for sale at March 31, 2013) decreased by $248.3 million, or 9.0%, to $2.50 billion at March 31, 2013, from $2.75 billion at December 31, 2012.

The commercial real estate portfolio increased by $57.6 million, or 6.9%, to $897.5 million at March 31, 2013, from $839.9 million at December 31, 2012. Our commercial real estate portfolio consists almost exclusively of loans secured by existing, multi-tenanted commercial real estate. 93% of our commercial real estate loan balances are secured by properties located in Texas. Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans increased by $23.9 million, or 8.6%, to $302.5 million at March 31, 2013, from $278.5 million at December 31, 2012. In 2013, the Company will continue to emphasize growth in the C&I line of business, which is supported by the experienced lenders both from the Highlands acquisition and new hires added in 2012. Warehouse lines of credit decreased by $1.9 million, or 5.7%, from $32.7 million at December 31, 2012, to $30.9 million at March 31, 2013.

Loans held for sale decreased by $303.2 million, or 28.6%, to $757.5 million at March 31, 2013, from $1.06 billion at December 31, 2012, and consisted of Warehouse Purchase Program loans purchased for sale under our standard loan participation agreement. The Company purchases a 100% participation interest in the loans originated by our mortgage banking company customers, which are then held as one- to four- family mortgage loans held for sale on a short-term basis. The mortgage banking company has no obligation to offer and we have no obligation to purchase these participation interests. The mortgage banking company closes mortgage loans consistent with underwriting standards established by approved

investors and once the loan closes, the participation interest is delivered by the Company to the investor selected by the originator and approved by the Company. Loans funded by the Warehouse Purchase Program during the first quarter of 2013 consisted of 59% conforming, 38% government and 3% Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) loans, and the number of Warehouse Purchase Program clients totaled 47 at March 31, 2013, compared to 43 at December 31, 2012 and 38 at March 31, 2012. Compared to the first quarter of 2012, Warehouse Purchase Program balances increased by $44.3 million.

One- to four-family real estate loans decreased by $19.4 million, or 5.1%, to $358.8 million at March 31, 2013, from $378.3 million at December 31, 2012. The Company does not originate one- to four- family real estate loans, but does periodically purchase these loans from correspondents on both a servicing retained and servicing released basis.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are estimated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. It is our estimate of credit losses in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of general and specific components.

For the general component, we stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics and apply a loss ratio to these groups of loans to estimate the credit losses in the loan portfolio. We use both historical loss ratios and qualitative loss factors assigned to major loan collateral types to establish loss allocations. The historical loss ratio is generally defined as an average percentage of net annual loan losses to loans outstanding. Qualitative loss factors are based on management's judgment of company-specific data and external economic indicators which may not yet be reflective in the historical loss ratios and how this information could impact the Company's specific loan portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee sets and adjusts qualitative loss factors by reviewing changes in loan composition and the seasonality of specific portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee also considers credit quality and trends relating to delinquency, non-performing and/or classified loans and bankruptcy within the Company's loan portfolio when evaluating qualitative loss factors. Additionally, the Allowance for Loan Loss Committee adjusts qualitative factors periodically to account for the potential impact of external economic factors, including the unemployment rate, housing price, vacancy rates and inventory levels specific to our primary market area.

For the specific component, the allowance for loan losses on individually analyzed impaired loans includes commercial and industrial and one- to four-family and commercial real estate loans where management has concerns about the borrower's ability to repay. Loss estimates include the negative difference, if any, between the current fair value of the collateral or the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due.

Loans acquired from Highlands were initially recorded at fair value, which included an estimate of credit losses expected to be realized over the remaining lives of the loans, and therefore no corresponding allowance for loan losses was recorded for these loans at acquisition. Methods utilized to estimate the required allowance for loan losses for acquired loans not deemed credit−impaired at acquisition are similar to originated loans; however, the estimate of loss is based on the unpaid principal balance less the remaining purchase discount.

Purchased credit impaired (PCI) loans, which totaled $10.6 million and $12.8 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, are not considered nonperforming loans, and accordingly, are not included in the non-performing loans to total loans ratio as a numerator, but are included in total loans reflected in the denominator. The result is a downward trend in the ratio when compared to prior periods, assuming all other factors stay the same. Similarly, other asset quality ratios, such as the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio will reflect a downward trend, assuming all other factors stay the same, due to the impact of PCI loans on the denominator with no corresponding impact in the numerator.

Our non-performing loans, which consist of nonaccrual loans, include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest becomes doubtful or other factors involving the loan warrant placing the loan on nonaccrual status.

A modified loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or collateral with similar credit risk characteristics. Modifications to loan terms may include a modification of the contractual interest rate to a below-market rate (even if the modified rate is higher than the original rate), forgiveness of accrued interest, forgiveness of a portion of principal, an extended repayment period or a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of assets other than cash to fully or partially satisfy a debt. The Company's policy is to place all TDRs on nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months. Loans qualify for a return to accrual status once they have demonstrated performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement for a minimum of six months and the collection of principal and interest under the revised terms is deemed probable. At March 31, 2013, of our $18.7 million in TDRs, $4.6 million were accruing interest and

31

$14.1 million were classified as nonaccrual. Nonaccrual TDRs included $11.8 million attributable to seven commercial real estate loans, all of which were performing in accordance with their restructured terms at March 31, 2013.

Our non-performing loans to total loans ratio at March 31, 2013, was 1.59%, compared to 1.61% at December 31, 2012. Non-performing loans increased by $518,000 to $27.7 million at March 31, 2013, from $27.2 million at December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in C&I non-performing loans, which was driven by two C&I loans acquired from Highlands totaling $1.8 million that were moved to non-performing status during the first quarter of 2013 (neither loan is considered purchased credit impaired).

Our allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2013, was $18.6 million, or 1.07% of total loans, compared to $18.1 million, or 1.07% of total loans, at December 31, 2012. Our allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans ratio was 67.25% at March 31, 2013, compared to 66.36% as of December 31, 2012.

Other Loans of Concern. The Company has other potential problem loans that are currently performing and do not meet the criteria for impairment, but where some concern exists. These possible credit problems may result in the future inclusion of these items in the non-performing asset categories. These loans consist of residential and commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans that are classified as “special mention,” meaning that these loans have potential weaknesses that deserve management's close attention. These loans are not adversely classified according to regulatory classifications and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. These loans have been considered in management's determination of our allowance for loan losses. As of March 31, 2013, there was an aggregate of $20.8 million of these potential problem loans, no change from the $20.8 million at December 31, 2012. Of the $20.8 million, three commercial real estate loans totaling $14.6 million were not delinquent at March 31, 2013, but are being monitored due to circumstances such as low occupancy rate, low debt service coverage or prior payment history problems.

Classified Assets. Loans and other assets, such as securities and foreclosed assets that are considered by management to be of lesser quality, are classified as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss." An asset is considered "substandard" if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. "Substandard" assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as "doubtful" have all of the weaknesses of those classified "substandard," with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets classified as "loss" are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

We regularly review the assets in our portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification. The total amount of assets classified represented 10.2% of our equity capital and 1.6% of our total assets at March 31, 2013, compared to 11.1% of our equity capital and 1.6% of our total assets at December 31, 2012. The aggregate amount of classified assets at the dates indicated was as follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
	(Dollars in thousands)
Loss	$	—	$	—
Doubtful	5,558		5,334

Total classified loans	52,787		55,685
Foreclosed assets	1,505		1,901
Total classified assets	$	54,292	$	57,586

Securities. Our securities portfolio decreased by $2.2 million, or 0.33%, to $645.4 million at March 31, 2013, from $647.6 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease in our securities portfolio primarily resulted from paydowns and maturities totaling $157.4 million and sales of $10.6 million, which were partially offset by purchases totaling $167.3 million. The majority of these purchases were done for tax strategy purposes. The securities were sold as their increasing prepayment speeds were no longer consistent with portfolio requirements.

32

Deposits. Total deposits increased by $35.3 million, or 1.6%, to $2.21 billion at March 31, 2013, from $2.18 billion at December 31, 2012.

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012		Dollar Change			Percent Change
	(Dollars in thousands)
Non-interest-bearing demand	$	392,759	$	357,800	$	34,959		9.8	%

Total deposits	$	2,213,090	$	2,177,806	$	35,284		1.6	%

The increase in deposits was primarily due to a $35.0 million increase in non-interest-bearing demand deposits compared to December 31, 2012, which was driven by higher balances in commercial and Warehouse Purchase Program products, and an $8.0 million increase in savings and money market deposits. These increases were partially offset by a $6.8 million decline in interest-bearing demand deposits. Time deposits remained relatively flat compared to December 31, 2012, decreasing by $843,000.

Borrowings. FHLB advances, net of a $2.9 million restructuring prepayment penalty, decreased by $328.0 million, or 36.8%, to $564.2 million at March 31, 2013, from $892.2 million at December 31, 2012. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances decreased due to a lower Warehouse Purchase Program balance at March 31, 2013, of which a portion was strategically funded with short term advances. At March 31, 2013, the Company was eligible to borrow an additional $1.03 billion from the FHLB, which includes $558.9 million of the blanket lien on Warehouse Purchase Program loans. The FHLB is currently reviewing the eligibility of inclusion of Warehouse Purchase Program loans under the blanket lien due the risk-weighting change from 50% to 100%. If the FHLB determines that Warehouse Purchase Program loans are ineligible for inclusion under the blanket lien, the Company's borrowing availability with FHLB at March 31, 2013, would have been $492.4 million. See "Capital Resources." Additionally, the Company has six available federal funds lines of credit with other financial institutions totaling $165.0 million and was eligible to borrow $95.2 million from the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. In addition to FHLB advances, at March 31, 2013, the Company had a $25.0 million outstanding repurchase agreement with Credit Suisse.

The below table shows FHLB advances by maturity and weighted average rate at March 31, 2013:

Retained earnings was increased by net income of $8.1 million recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The Company made two dividend payments during the fourth quarter of 2012, with the December 2012 dividend payment of $0.10 per common share representing the dividend payment that the Company would typically pay in the first quarter of 2013.

Comparison of Results of Operation for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012

General. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $8.1 million, an increase of $986,000, or 13.9%, from net income of $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in net income was driven by an increase in net interest income of $5.0 million, partially offset by a $2.4 million increase in non-interest expense and an $871,000 decrease in non-interest income. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013, were $0.21, a $0.01 decrease from $0.22 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Interest Income. Interest income increased by $4.0 million, or 13.8%, to $33.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $29.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The increase in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, was primarily due to a $6.1 million, or 24.9%, increase in interest income on loans. Accretion associated with the Highlands acquisition contributed $945,000 to the increase for the comparable periods. The average balance of commercial real estate loans increased by $256.4 million at March 31, 2013, compared to March 31, 2012, contributing a $3.3 million increase in interest income. The average balance of C&I loans for the three months ended March 31, 2013, increased by $214.0 million from the same period in 2012, contributing a $2.4 million increase in interest income. Additionally, the average balance of loans held for sale increased by $76.5 million for the comparable periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, leading to a $326,000 increase in interest income.

These increases were partially offset by a $2.1 million, or 41.7%, decline in interest on securities, which resulted primarily from the sale of securities and normal paydowns, as well as a reduction in the yield on securities. Overall, the yield on interest-earning assets increased by 14 basis points, to 4.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from 4.13% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as a result of the shift of funds from lower yielding securities to higher yielding loans.

34

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $992,000, or 16.9%, to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Repurchase agreement	201		203		(2		)	(1.0	)
	$	4,894	$	5,886	$	(992	)	(16.9	)%

The decrease was primarily caused by a $797,000, or 24.7%, decrease in the interest expense paid on deposits. The average rate paid on interest-bearing demand deposits declined by 54 basis points to 0.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from 0.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which primarily resulted in the $638,000 decrease in interest expense paid on interest-bearing demand deposits. Additionally, interest expense on time accounts decreased by $261,000, resulting from a $22.0 million decline in the average balance during the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, and a 17 basis point decline in the average rate for the comparable periods. Deposit costs have continued to decline due to rate reductions in Absolute Checking and other interest-bearing accounts.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $5.0 million, or 21.4%, to $28.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $23.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The net interest margin increased 34 basis points to 3.64% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from 3.30% for the same period last year. The net interest rate spread increased 34 basis points to 3.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from 3.11% for the same period last year. The increases in the net interest rate margin and spread were primarily attributable to changes in the earning asset mix, lower deposit and borrowing rates, and the impact of the Highlands acquisition. Net of the impact of the Highlands acquisition, the net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was 3.53%.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $883,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $12,000, or 1.3%, from $895,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Credit quality has improved due to continued improvement in economic conditions, enhancements in loan underwriting and oversight, as well as the addition of highly experienced commercial lending staff over the past year, both through the Highlands acquisition and new hires. Net charge-offs totaled $292,000 for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $359,000 for the first quarter of 2012.

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income decreased by $871,000, or 12.9%, to $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

35

The decrease in non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012, was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million gain on the sale of mortgage loans in the 2012 period, with no comparable gain in the 2013 period due to the sale of VPM in the third quarter of 2012. This decrease was partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in other non-interest income, related to a $784,000 increase in the value of an equity investment in a community development-oriented private equity fund used for Community Reinvestment Act purposes in 2013, with no comparable gain in the 2012 period. Loss on sale and disposition of assets improved $311,000, primarily due to gains recognized in the 2013 period related to the early pay-offs of purchased credit impaired loans. The $177,000 loss on sale of available for sale securities was related to securities sold during the 2013 period because their increasing prepayment speeds were no longer consistent with portfolio requirements.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $2.4 million, or 13.1%, to $20.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $18.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The increase in non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012, was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in salary and benefits expense. During 2012, we added experienced staff through the Highlands acquisition, as well as new hires. This increase was partially offset by salary and benefits savings resulting from the sale of VPM. Compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012, occupancy and equipment expense increased primarily due to the impact of the Highlands acquisition, while data processing and advertising expense increased as we continue to improve our franchise by investing in marketing, branding awareness and technology.

Income Tax Expense. For the three months ended March 31 2013, we recognized income tax expense of $4.6 million on our pre-tax income, which was an effective tax rate of 36.2%, compared to income tax expense of $3.8 million, which was an effective tax rate of 35.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to various individually immaterial adjustments to income tax expense recorded during the period.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and those due to changes in interest rates. The change in interest attributable to rate has been determined by applying the change in rate between periods to average balances outstanding in the earlier period. The change in interest due to volume has been determined by applying the rate from the earlier period to the change in average balances outstanding between periods. Changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Liquidity

Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide funding for loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. The Company relies on a number of different sources in order to meet its potential liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts and cash flows from loan payments and the securities portfolio.

Planning for the Company's normal business liquidity needs, both expected and unexpected, is done on a daily and short-term basis through the cash management function. On a longer-term basis it is accomplished through the budget and strategic planning functions, with support from internal asset/liability management software model projections.

The Liquidity Committee monitors liquidity positions and projections, and adds liquidity contingency planning to the process by focusing on possible scenarios that would stress liquidity beyond the Bank's normal business liquidity needs. These scenarios may include macro economic and bank specific situations focusing on high probability-high impact, high probability-

38

low impact, low probability-high impact, and low probability-low impact stressors.

Management recognizes that the events and their severity of liquidity stress leading up to and occurring during a liquidity stress event cannot be precisely defined or listed. Nevertheless, management believes that liquidity stress events can be categorized into sources and uses of liquidity, and levels of severity, with responses that apply to various situations.

In addition to the primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had an additional borrowing capacity of $1.03 billion with the FHLB, which includes $558.9 million of the blanket lien on Warehouse Purchase Program loans. The FHLB is currently reviewing the eligibility of inclusion of Warehouse Purchase Program loans under the blanket lien due the risk-weighting change from 50% to 100%. Also, at March 31, 2013, the Company had $165.0 million in federal funds lines of credit available with other financial institutions. The Company may also use the discount window at the Federal Reserve Bank as a source of short-term funding. Federal Reserve Bank borrowing capacity varies based upon securities pledged to the discount window line. As of March 31, 2013, securities pledged had a collateral value of $95.2 million.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had classified 48.9% of its securities portfolio as available for sale (including pledged securities), providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that because active markets exist and our securities portfolio is of high quality, our available for sale securities are marketable. Participations in loans we originate, including portions of commercial real estate loans, are sold to create another source of liquidity and to manage borrower concentration risk as well as interest rate risk.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Short term excess liquidity is generally placed in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank and correspondent banks. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities.

The Company on a stand-alone level is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its shareholders. The Company's primary source of funds consists of the net proceeds retained by the Company from our initial public offering in 2006 and our “second-step” offering in July 2010. We also have the ability to receive dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. At March 31, 2013, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $47.5 million.

The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its expenses, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. Total approved loan commitments (including Warehouse Purchase Program commitments, unused lines of credit and letters of credit) amounted to $907.9 million and $500.2 million at March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively. It is management's policy to offer deposit rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2013 totaled $315.5 million with a weighted average rate of 1.22%.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $16.2 million, or 23.6%, to $52.5 million as of March 31, 2013, from $68.7 million as of December 31, 2012. Cash used in investing activities of $40.5 million and cash used in financing activities of $292.5 million offset cash provided by operating activities of $316.8 million. Primary sources of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale of $3.73 billion (related to our Warehouse Purchase Program), maturities, prepayments and calls of available-for-sale securities of $126.3 million and proceeds from FHLB advances of $230.0 million. Primary uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2013, included loans originated or purchased for sale of $3.43 billion (related to our Warehouse Purchase Program), purchases of available-for-sale securities of $165.9 million and repayments on FHLB advances of $558.0 million.

Capital Resources

The Bank and the Company are subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by the OCC and the FRB. Consistent with our goal to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank and the Company to maintain “well-capitalized” status under the capital categories of the OCC and the FRB. Based on capital levels at March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the Bank and the Company were considered to be well-capitalized.

At March 31, 2013, the Bank's equity totaled $429.4 million. The Company's consolidated equity totaled $531.0 million, or 15.7% of total assets, at March 31, 2013. The March 2013 information reflects a risk weighting change from 50% to 100% on our Warehouse Purchase Program loans. In April 2013, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council issued Supplemental Instructions for the March 31, 2013 Call Report, which clarified the regulators' position on the risk-weighting of these types of loans.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Asset/Liability Management

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. However, market rates change over time. Like other financial institutions, our results of operations are impacted by changes in market interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities. The risk associated with changes in market 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 market interest rates and comply with applicable regulations, we calculate and monitor our interest rate risk. In doing so, we analyze and manage assets and liabilities based on their interest rates and contractual cash flows, timing of maturities, prepayment potential, repricing opportunities, and sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates.

The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the extent that its interest bearing liabilities, primarily deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings, reprice more rapidly or slowly, or at different rates (basis risk) than its interest earning assets, primarily loans and investment securities.

The Bank calculates interest rate risk by entering relevant contractual and projected information into the asset/liability management software simulation model. Data required by the model includes balance, rate, pay down schedule, and maturity. For items that contractually reprice, the repricing index, spread, and frequency are entered, including any initial, periodic, and lifetime interest rate caps and floors.

The Bank has adopted an asset and liability management policy. This policy sets the foundation for monitoring and managing the potential for adverse effects of material prolonged increases or decreases in interest rates on our results of operations. The Board of Directors sets the asset and liability policy for the Bank, which is implemented by the Asset/Liability Management Committee.

The purpose of the Asset/Liability Management Committee is to monitor, communicate, coordinate, and direct asset/liability management consistent with our business plan and board-approved policies. The committee directs and monitors the volume and mix of assets and funding sources, taking into account relative costs and spreads, interest rate sensitivity and liquidity needs. The objectives are to manage assets and funding sources to produce results that are consistent with liquidity, capital adequacy, interest rate risk, growth, and profitability goals.

The Committee meets on a bimonthly basis to, among other things, protect capital through earnings stability over the interest rate cycle; maintain our well-capitalized status; and provide a reasonable return on investment. The Committee recommends appropriate strategy changes based on this review. The Committee is responsible for reviewing and reporting the effects of policy implementation and strategies to the Board of Directors at least quarterly. In addition, two outside members of the Board of Directors are on the Asset/Liability Management Committee. Senior managers oversee the process on a daily basis.

A key element of the Bank’s asset/liability management strategy is to protect earnings by managing the inherent maturity and repricing mismatches between its interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The Bank generally manages such earnings exposure through the addition of loans, investment securities and deposits with risk mitigating characteristics and by entering into appropriate term FHLB advance agreements.

As part of its efforts to monitor and manage interest rate risk, the Bank uses the economic value of equity (“EVE”) methodology adopted by the OCC as part of its capital regulations. In essence, the EVE approach calculates the difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and liabilities. In addition to monitoring selected measures of EVE, management also calculates and monitors potential effects on net interest income resulting from increases or decreases in market interest rates. This approach uses the earnings at risk (“EAR”) methodology adopted by the OCC as part of its capital regulations. EAR calculates estimated net interest income using a flat balance sheet approach over a twelve month time horizon. The EAR process is used in conjunction with EVE measures to identify interest rate risk on both a global and account level basis. Management and the Board of Directors review EVE and EAR measurements at least quarterly to determine whether the Bank's interest rate exposure is within the limits established by the Board of Directors.

42

The Bank's asset/liability management strategy sets acceptable limits for the percentage change in EVE and EAR given changes in interest rates. For an instantaneous, parallel, and sustained interest rate increase or decrease of 100 basis points, the Bank's policy indicates that the EVE ratio should not fall below 7.00%, and for increases of 200, 300 and 400 basis points, the EVE ratio should not fall below 6.00%, 5.25% and 5.00%, respectively. For an instantaneous, parallel, and sustained interest rate increase or decrease of 100 basis points, the Bank's policy indicates that EAR should not decrease by more than 7%, and for increases of 200, 300, and 400 basis points, EAR should not decrease by more than 10%, 13%, and 15%, respectively.

As illustrated in the tables below, the Bank was within policy limits for all scenarios tested. The tables presented below, as of March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, are internal analyses of our interest rate risk as measured by changes in EVE and EAR for instantaneous, parallel, and sustained shifts for all market rates and yield curves, in 100 basis point increments, up 400 basis points and down 100 basis points.

As illustrated in the tables below, our EVE would be positively impacted by a parallel, instantaneous, and sustained increase in market rates. Such an increase in rates would positively impact EVE as a result of the duration of assets, including loans and investments, being shorter than the duration of liabilities, primarily deposit accounts and FHLB borrowings. As interest rates rise, the market value of FHLB borrowings and deposits decline more due to longer maturities and fixed rates. As illustrated in the table below at March 31, 2013, our EAR would be positively impacted by a parallel, instantaneous, and sustained increase in market rates of 200, 300, or 400 basis points. As market interest rates rise and variable loan rates move above their floors, the interest rate repricing of variable rate and maturing loans and securities increases net interest income.

The Bank's EVE was $544.6 million million, or 15.93%, of the market value of portfolio assets as of March 31, 2013, a $28.7 million increase from $515.9 million, or 13.94%, of the market value of portfolio assets as of December 31, 2012. Based upon the assumptions utilized, an immediate 200 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a $22.1 million million increase in our EVE at March 31, 2013, compared to a $25.7 million million increase at December 31, 2012, and would result in a 120 basis point increase in our EVE ratio to 17.13% at March 31, 2013, as compared to a 113 basis point increase to 15.07% at December 31, 2012. An immediate 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in a $30.3 million decrease in our EVE at March 31, 2013, compared to $22.9 million decrease at December 31, 2012, and would result in a 107 basis point decrease in our EVE ratio to 14.86% at March 31, 2013, as compared to a 79 basis point decrease in our EVE ratio to 13.15% at December 31, 2012.

A research study of the Bank’s non-maturity deposit accounts has been completed. In this study, decay rates, repricing betas, and customer behavior were analyzed over time on an individual account level basis. The results were aggregated by product, with recommendations which were subsequently implemented. The updated account assumptions resulted in an increase to the overall projected duration of the non-maturity deposit account portfolio.

The Bank's EAR for the twelve months beginning March 31, 2013 is measured at $119.1 million, compared to $128.9 million for the twelve months beginning December 31, 2012. Based on the assumptions utilized, an immediate 200 basis point increase in market rates would result in a $3.4 million, or 2.82%, increase in net interest income for the twelve months beginning March 31, 2013, compared to a $990,000, or 0.77%, decrease for the twelve months beginning December 31, 2012. An immediate 100 basis point decrease in market rates would result in a $1.8 million decrease in net interest income for the twelve months beginning March 31, 2013, compared to a $1.4 million decrease for the twelve months beginning December 31, 2012.

We have implemented a strategic plan to mitigate interest rate risk. This plan includes the ongoing review of our mix of fixed rate versus variable rate loans, investments, deposits, and borrowings. When available and appropriate, high quality adjustable rate assets are purchased or originated. These assets generally may reduce our sensitivity to upward interest rate shocks. On the liability side of the balance sheet, borrowings are added as appropriate. These borrowings will be of a size and term so as to mitigate the impact of duration mismatches, reducing our sensitivity to upward interest rate shocks. These strategies are implemented as needed and as opportunities arise to mitigate interest rate risk without materially sacrificing earnings.

In managing our mix of assets and liabilities, while considering the relationship between long and short term interest rates, market conditions, and consumer preferences, we may place somewhat greater emphasis on maintaining or increasing the Bank’s net interest margin than on strictly matching the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities.

Management also believes that at times the increased net income which may result from a mismatch in the actual maturity, repricing, or duration of its asset and liability portfolios can provide sufficient returns to justify the increased exposure to sudden and unexpected increases or decreases in interest rates which may result from such a mismatch. Management believes that the Bank’s level of interest rate risk is acceptable under this approach.

In evaluating the Bank’s exposure to market interest rate movements, certain shortcomings inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table must be considered. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricing characteristics, their interest rate drivers may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates (basis risk). 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 interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgages, have features which restrict changes in interest rates over the life of the asset (time to initial interest rate reset; interest rate reset frequency; initial, periodic, and lifetime caps and floors). Further, in the event of a significant change in market interest rates, loan and securities prepayment and time deposit early withdrawal levels may deviate significantly from those assumed in the table above. Assets with prepayment options and liabilities with early withdrawal options are being monitored. Current market rates and customer behavior are being considered in the management of interest rate risk. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. The Bank considers all of these factors in monitoring its exposure to interest rate risk. Of note, the current historically low interest rate environment has resulted in asymmetrical interest rate risk. The interest rates on certain repricing assets and liabilities cannot be fully shocked downward.

The Board of Directors and management believe that the Bank’s ability to successfully manage and mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk is strengthened by several key factors. For example, the Bank manages its balance sheet duration and overall interest rate risk by placing a preference on originating and retaining adjustable rate loans. In addition, the Bank borrows at various maturities from the FHLB to mitigate mismatches between the asset and liability portfolios. Furthermore, the

44

investment securities portfolio is used as a primary interest rate risk management tool through the duration and repricing targeting of purchases and sales.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of March 31, 2013. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. There has been no change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

While the Company believes the present design of its disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goals, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error 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 in controls or procedures can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual actions of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure 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 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.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

On June 5, 2012, the Bank and VPM, our former mortgage banking subsidiary, entered into a definitive agreement with Highlands Residential Mortgage, Ltd. (“HRM”) to sell substantially all of the assets of VPM to HRM, subject to certain closing conditions. The transaction closed in the third quarter of 2012.

The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, primarily distinguished between banking and VPM, our former mortgage banking subsidiary. Loans, investments and deposits generate the revenues in the banking segment; secondary marketing sales generated the revenue in the VPM segment. Segment performance is evaluated using segment profit (loss). Information reported internally for performance assessment for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was as follows:

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU requires companies to report information about significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes. If an entity is unable to identify the line item of net income affected by any significant amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income during a reporting period (including when all reclassifications for the period are not to net income in their entirety), a company must present information about items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income in the notes. Companies that qualify for and present information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the face of the statement where net income is presented must present parenthetically: 1). the effect of significant reclassification items on the respective line items of net income by component of other comprehensive income and 2.) the aggregate tax effect of all significant reclassifications on the line item for income tax benefit/expense in the statement where net income is presented.For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and has included the required disclosures in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income included in this Form 10-Q.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment

In determining other-than-temporary impairment for debt securities, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The Company does not believe these unrealized losses to be other-than-temporary.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

NOTE 2 — EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, reduced for average unallocated ESOP shares and average unvested restricted stock awards. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (such as stock awards and options) were exercised or converted to common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the Company’s earnings. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period increased for the dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock awards. The dilutive effect of the unexercised stock options and unvested restricted stock awards is calculated under the treasury stock method utilizing the average market value of the Company’s stock for the period. Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method described in ASC 260-10-45-60B. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per common share computation for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2013			2012
Basic earnings per share:
Numerator:
Net income	$	8,058		$	7,072
Distributed and undistributed earnings to participating securities	(64		)	(15		)

Average unvested restricted stock awards	(300,185		)	(68,803		)
Average shares for basic earnings per share	37,529,793			31,545,748
Basic earnings per common share	$	0.21		$	0.22
Diluted earnings per share:
Numerator:
Income available to common shareholders	$	7,994		$	7,057
Denominator:
Average shares for basic earnings per share	37,529,793			31,545,748
Dilutive effect of share-based compensation plan	151,609			120,607
Average shares for diluted earnings per share	37,681,402			31,666,355
Diluted earnings per common share	$	0.21		0.22

877,500 and 80,000 stock options outstanding at March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, respectively, were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock and were, therefore, antidilutive.

The allowance for loan losses and related provision expense are susceptible to change if the credit quality of our loan portfolio changes, which is evidenced by many factors, including but not limited to charge-offs and non-performing loan trends. Generally, one- to four-family residential real estate lending has a lower credit risk profile compared to consumer lending (such as automobile or personal line of credit loans). Commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending, however, have higher credit risk profiles than consumer and one- to four- family residential real estate loans due to these loans being larger in amount and non-homogeneous in structure and term. Changes in economic conditions, the mix and size of the loan portfolio and individual borrower conditions can dramatically impact our level of allowance for loan losses in relatively short periods of time.

Management evaluates current information and events regarding a borrower's ability to repay its obligations and considers a loan to be impaired when the ultimate collectability of amounts due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, is in doubt. If an impaired loan is collateral-dependent, the fair value of the collateral, less the estimated cost to sell, is used to determine the amount of impairment. If an impaired loan is not collateral-dependent, the impairment amount is determined using the negative difference, if any, between the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due. For impaired loans, the amount of the impairment can be adjusted, based on current data, until such time as the actual basis is established by acquisition of the collateral or until the basis is collected. Impairment losses are reflected in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts for accruing loans are applied to principal and interest under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash receipts on impaired loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are applied first to principal.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are estimated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. It is our estimate of credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of general and specific components. For the general component, we stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics and apply a loss ratio to these groups of loans to estimate the credit losses in the loan portfolio. We use both historical loss ratios and qualitative loss factors assigned to major loan collateral types to establish loss allocations. The historical loss ratio is generally defined as a percentage of net annual loan losses to average loans outstanding utilizing a 24 month rolling average. Qualitative loss factors are based on management's judgment of company-specific data and external economic indicators, which may not yet be reflected in the historical loss ratios, and how this information could impact the Company's specific loan portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee sets and adjusts qualitative loss factors by regularly reviewing changes in loan composition and the seasonality of specific portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee also considers credit quality and trends relating to delinquency, non-performing and/or classified loans and bankruptcy within the Company's loan portfolio when evaluating qualitative loss factors. Additionally, the Allowance for Loan Loss Committee adjusts qualitative factors to account for the potential impact of external economic factors, including the unemployment rate, housing price, vacancy rates and inventory levels specific to our primary market area.

For the specific component, the allowance for loan losses on individually analyzed impaired loans includes loans secured by mortgage and commercial and industrial loans where management has concerns about the borrower's ability to repay. Loss estimates include the negative difference, if any, between the current fair value of the collateral or the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due.

¹ Loans reported do not include PCI loans.

Loans that are past due 30 days or greater are considered delinquent. Interest income on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans. A loan is moved to nonaccrual status in accordance with the Company's policy, typically after 90 days of non-payment.

All interest accrued, but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status, is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cost recovery or cash-basis method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Loans past due over 90 days that were still accruing interest totaled $499 at March 31, 2013 and $593 at December 31, 2012, which consisted entirely of PCI loans. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, no PCI loans were considered non-performing loans. Purchased performing loans that were non-performing totaled $6,321 and $5,364 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Those loans included $3,020 and $3,159 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, of commercial lines of credit that did not qualify for PCI accounting due to their revolving nature. Non-performing (nonaccrual) loans were as follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Commercial real estate	$	12,696	$	13,609

A modified loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or collateral with similar credit risk characteristics. Modifications to loan terms may include a modification of the contractual interest rate to a below-market rate (even if the modified rate is higher than the original rate), forgiveness of accrued interest, forgiveness of a portion of principal, an extended repayment period or a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of assets other than cash to fully or partially satisfy a debt. The Company's policy is to place all TDRs on nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months. Loans qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement for a minimum of six months and the collection of principal and interest under the revised terms is deemed probable.

For loans collateralized by real property and commercial and industrial loans, credit exposure is monitored by internally assigned grades used for classification of loans and other assets. A loan is considered “special mention” if it is a potential problem loan that is currently performing and does not meet the criteria for impairment, but where some concern exists. A loan is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” loans include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses of those classified as “substandard”, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” All other loans that do not fall into the above mentioned categories are considered “pass” loans. Updates to internally assigned grades are made monthly and/or upon significant developments.

For consumer loans, credit exposure is monitored by payment history of the loans. Non-performing consumer loans are on nonaccrual and are generally greater than 90 days past due.

The recorded investment in loans by credit quality indicators at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, was as follows.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE

FAIR VALUE

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, 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 standard 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 other 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: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant and unobservable in the market. These instruments are valued using the best information available, some of which is internally developed, and reflects a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the risk premiums that market participants would generally require and the assumptions they would use.

The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs.)

Prior to the Company's sale of VPM in the third quarter of 2012, interest income on certain mortgage loans held for sale was recognized based on contractual rates and reflected in interest income on mortgage loans held for sale in the consolidated income statement. A net gain of $371 resulting from changes in fair value of these loans was recorded in mortgage income during the three months endedMarch 31, 2012, offset by economic hedging losses in the amount of $211.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

March 31, 2013	Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are summarized below. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

			Fair Value Measurements Using
	March 31, 2013			Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Assets:
Impaired loans	$	14,064	$	—	$	14,064
Other real estate owned	1,886		416		1,470

Unobservable inputs used in nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are summarized below:

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
	Fair Value						Range (Average)
	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input
Impaired loans	$	11,235	$	10,986	Third party appraisal	Discount of market value	0%-20% (7%)
						Estimated marketing costs	0%-7% (6%)
						Estimated legal expenses	$0-$7 ($2)
	3,059		3,078		Discounted cash flow analysis	Interest rate	2.4%-5.4% (3.8%)
						Loan term (in months)	10-251 (107)
Other real estate owned	540		1,470		Third party appraisal	Discount of market value	0%-70% (17%)
						Estimated marketing costs	0%-7% (6%)

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral as determined by third party appraisals using recent comparative sales data. The fair value of the collateral is then adjusted for the Level 3 inputs described above. Impaired loans that are not collateral dependent are measured for impairmentby a discounted cash flow analysis using a net present value calculation utilizing data from the loan file before and after the modification.

Other real estate owned is measured at the lower of book or fair value less costs to sell. Other real estate owned that was valued using third party appraisals, listing agreements or sales contracts less actual costs to sell is classified as Level 2, while other real estate owned that was valued using third party appraisals, listing agreements or sales contracts less costs to sell and other Level 3 valuation inputs described in the above table is classified as Level 3.

The Credit Administration department evaluates the valuations on impaired loans and other real estate owned at least monthly. These valuations are reviewed at least monthly by the Allowance for Loan Loss Committee and are considered in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Unobservable inputs are monitored and adjusted if market conditions change.

Activity for other real estate owned for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related valuation allowances was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2013			2012

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

Estimated fair value is the carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents, bank-owned life insurance and accrued interest receivable and payable. For loans, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market offering rates, estimated life, and applicable credit risk. For deposits and FHLB advances, fair value is calculated using the March 31, 2013 FHLB advance curve to discount cash flows for the estimated life for deposits and according to the contractual repayment schedule for FHLB advances. Fair value of the repurchase agreement is based on discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar borrowings would be made with similar terms and remaining maturities. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock due to restrictions on its transferability. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is based on the current fees or costs that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements and are not considered significant to this presentation.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2013

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

BASIS OF FINACIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments which are considered necessary to fairly present the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Certain items in prior periods were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in ViewPoint Financial Group, Inc.'s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2012 Form 10-K”). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2013

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Use of Estimates

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For further information with respect to significant accounting policies followed by the Company in preparation of its consolidated financial statements refer to the 2012 Form 10-K.

Gross and Net Revenue Recognition

Gains and losses on the sale of securities classified as available for sale are recorded on the settlement date using the specific-identification method.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment

Other-than-Temporary Impairment

In determining other-than-temporary impairment for debt securities, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The Company does not believe these unrealized losses to be other-than-temporary.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses and related provision expense are susceptible to change if the credit quality of our loan portfolio changes, which is evidenced by many factors, including but not limited to charge-offs and non-performing loan trends. Generally, one- to four-family residential real estate lending has a lower credit risk profile compared to consumer lending (such as automobile or personal line of credit loans). Commercial real estate and commercial and industrial lending, however, have higher credit risk profiles than consumer and one- to four- family residential real estate loans due to these loans being larger in amount and non-homogeneous in structure and term. Changes in economic conditions, the mix and size of the loan portfolio and individual borrower conditions can dramatically impact our level of allowance for loan losses in relatively short periods of time.

Management evaluates current information and events regarding a borrower's ability to repay its obligations and considers a loan to be impaired when the ultimate collectability of amounts due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, is in doubt. If an impaired loan is collateral-dependent, the fair value of the collateral, less the estimated cost to sell, is used to determine the amount of impairment. If an impaired loan is not collateral-dependent, the impairment amount is determined using the negative difference, if any, between the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due. For impaired loans, the amount of the impairment can be adjusted, based on current data, until such time as the actual basis is established by acquisition of the collateral or until the basis is collected. Impairment losses are reflected in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts for accruing loans are applied to principal and interest under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash receipts on impaired loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are applied first to principal.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are estimated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. It is our estimate of credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of general and specific components. For the general component, we stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss potential characteristics and apply a loss ratio to these groups of loans to estimate the credit losses in the loan portfolio. We use both historical loss ratios and qualitative loss factors assigned to major loan collateral types to establish loss allocations. The historical loss ratio is generally defined as a percentage of net annual loan losses to average loans outstanding utilizing a 24 month rolling average. Qualitative loss factors are based on management's judgment of company-specific data and external economic indicators, which may not yet be reflected in the historical loss ratios, and how this information could impact the Company's specific loan portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee sets and adjusts qualitative loss factors by regularly reviewing changes in loan composition and the seasonality of specific portfolios. The Allowance for Loan Loss Committee also considers credit quality and trends relating to delinquency, non-performing and/or classified loans and bankruptcy within the Company's loan portfolio when evaluating qualitative loss factors. Additionally, the Allowance for Loan Loss Committee adjusts qualitative factors to account for the potential impact of external economic factors, including the unemployment rate, housing price, vacancy rates and inventory levels specific to our primary market area.

For the specific component, the allowance for loan losses on individually analyzed impaired loans includes loans secured by mortgage and commercial and industrial loans where management has concerns about the borrower's ability to repay. Loss estimates include the negative difference, if any, between the current fair value of the collateral or the estimated discounted cash flows and the loan amount due.

A modified loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made by the Company that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or collateral with similar credit risk characteristics. Modifications to loan terms may include a modification of the contractual interest rate to a below-market rate (even if the modified rate is higher than the original rate), forgiveness of accrued interest, forgiveness of a portion of principal, an extended repayment period or a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of assets other than cash to fully or partially satisfy a debt. The Company's policy is to place all TDRs on nonaccrual for a minimum period of six months. Loans qualify for return to accrual status once they have demonstrated performance with the restructured terms of the loan agreement for a minimum of six months and the collection of principal and interest under the revised terms is deemed probable.

Loans

For loans collateralized by real property and commercial and industrial loans, credit exposure is monitored by internally assigned grades used for classification of loans and other assets. A loan is considered “special mention” if it is a potential problem loan that is currently performing and does not meet the criteria for impairment, but where some concern exists. A loan is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” loans include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses of those classified as “substandard”, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” All other loans that do not fall into the above mentioned categories are considered “pass” loans. Updates to internally assigned grades are made monthly and/or upon significant developments.

Loans that are past due 30 days or greater are considered delinquent. Interest income on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans. A loan is moved to nonaccrual status in accordance with the Company's policy, typically after 90 days of non-payment.

All interest accrued, but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status, is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cost recovery or cash-basis method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
