Note 1—Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

Sterling Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a unitary thrift holding company that was incorporated in 1989 and the parent company of its wholly owned subsidiary, Sterling Bank and Trust, F.S.B. (the “Bank”). The Company’s business is conducted through the Bank, which was formed in 1984. The Bank originates residential and commercial real estate loans, construction loans, commercial lines of credit and other consumer loans and provides deposit products, consisting primarily of checking, savings and term certificate accounts. The Bank operates through a network of 28 branches of which 26 branches are located in San Francisco and Los Angeles, California with the remaining branches located in New York, New York and Southfield, Michigan.

The Company is headquartered in Southfield, Michigan, and its operations are in the financial services industry. Management evaluates the performance of the Company’s business based on one reportable segment, community banking.

The Company is subject to regulation, examination and supervision by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB” or “Federal Reserve”). The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank that is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) of the U.S. Department of Treasury and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to these periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2022 or for any future annual or interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in the future periods may be based upon amounts that could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The loan portfolio consists primarily of residential real estate loans, which are collateralized by real estate. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, residential real estate loans accounted for 85% and 83%, respectively, of total gross loans. In addition, most of these residential loans and other commercial loans have been made to individuals and businesses in the state of California, which are dependent on the area economy for their livelihoods and servicing of their loan obligation. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately 84% and 85%, respectively, of gross loans was originated with respect to properties or businesses located in the state of California.

In March 2020, the Bank permanently discontinued its Advantage Loan program. Loans originated under this program comprised a significant component of the Bank’s total loan originations. Advantage Loan Program loans (including residential real estate loans held for sale of $7,313 and $11,359 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, of which $3,999 and $8,671 were on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively) totaled $992,477 and $1,185,458, or 66% and 69% of gross residential loans, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in ASC 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings involving borrowings that are experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, creditors will evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Also, losses associated with troubled debt restructurings should be incorporated in a creditor’s estimate of its allowance for credit losses. Public business entities are required to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for loan financing receivables and net investment in leases. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“2016-13”), ASU 2022-02 is effective when the entity adopts the guidance in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU, along with its adoption of ASU 2016-13, as discussed below.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, which is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments on a more timely basis. The guidance will replace the current incurred loss accounting model with an expected loss approach and requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which clarifies the scope of the credit losses standard and addresses issues related to accrued interest receivable balances and recoveries, among other things. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. The amendments provide entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis, upon adoption of Topic 326. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates. This update deferred the effective dates of Topic 326 to January 1, 2023 for certain entities including smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC. The Company, as a smaller reporting company as of the relevant measuring period, qualified for this extension.

(dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

At this time, a cross-functional implementation team consisting of individuals from accounting, finance, servicing and information systems is working with the Bank’s loan system vendor and consultants, and an application to create credit loss estimation models and processes has been developed. The historical data set for model development has been finalized, and the credit loss estimation models have been developed and tested. Once the credit loss estimation models have been finalized, the Bank will run the new credit loss estimation models in parallel with the current allowance for loan losses model to understand the differences in the models and assess the impact of the change. The Company expects to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023, the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU No. 2016-13 is effective. The Company has not yet determined the magnitude of any such one-time cumulative adjustment or of the overall impact of ASU No. 2016-13 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2022, the debt securities portfolio consisted of 33 debt securities, with 27 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. For debt securities in an unrealized loss position, management has both the intent and ability to hold these investments until the recovery of the decline. The fair value is expected to increase as these securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, the unrealized losses in these securities are due to non-credit-related factors, including changes in interest rates and other market conditions; thus, the impairment was determined to be temporary. All interest and dividends are considered taxable.

Equity Securities

Equity securities consist of an investment in a qualified community reinvestment act investment fund, which is a publicly-traded mutual fund and an investment in the common equity of Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank, a thinly traded restricted stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities totaled $4,817 and $5,222, respectively, and are included in investment securities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In the tables above, the unpaid principal balance is not reduced for partial charge offs. Also, the recorded investment excludes accrued interest receivable on loans, which was not significant.

Also presented in the table above is the average recorded investment of the impaired loans and the related amount of interest recognized during the time within the period that the impaired loans were impaired. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, contractual interest is credited to interest income when received under the cash basis method. The average balances are calculated based on the month-end balances of the loans for the period reported.

The following table presents the recorded investment in nonaccrual and loans past due over 90 days still on accrual, excluding nonaccrual loans held for sale, by class of loans as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The terms of certain other loans have been modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 that did not meet the definition of a TDR. These other loans that were modified were not considered significant.

Foreclosure Proceedings

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the recorded investment of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totaled $11,315 and $2,780, respectively. Of the loans in formal foreclosure proceedings, $2,755 and $2,770 were included in loans held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and were carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. The balance of loans are classified as held for investment and receive an allocation of the allowance for loan losses consistent with a substandard loan loss allocation rate as these loans were classified as substandard at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Credit Quality

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and other consumer loans, and non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial lines of credit, construction and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed at least quarterly. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass: Loans are of satisfactory quality.

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

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

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

Note 5—Mortgage Servicing Rights, net

The Bank records servicing assets from the sale of residential real estate mortgage loans to the secondary market for which servicing has been retained. Residential real estate mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The principal balance of these loans at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021
Residential real estate mortgage loan portfolios serviced for:
FNMA	$	117,421	$	124,764
FHLB		36,815		40,209
Private investors		89,648		142,810
Total	$	243,884	$	307,783

Custodial escrow balances maintained with these serviced loans were $693 and $5,501 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These balances are included in noninterest-bearing deposits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Activity for mortgage servicing rights and the related valuation allowance are as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Mortgage servicing rights:
Beginning of period	$	3,088	$	5,855	$	3,332	$	7,853
Additions		2		25		11		99

Additions (recoveries)		(111)		(261)		(521)		(1,197)
Valuation allowance at end of period		89		968		89		968
Mortgage servicing rights, net	$	2,453	$	3,232	$	2,453	$	3,232

Servicing fee income (loss), net of amortization of servicing rights and changes in the valuation allowance, was $(177) and $(908) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $266 and $(1,338) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was $2,899 and $2,916 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is highly sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions. Changes in prepayment speed assumptions have the most significant impact on the estimate of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights. The fair value at June 30, 2022 was determined using discount rates ranging from 9.5% to 12.0%, prepayment speeds with a weighted average of 11.9% (depending on the stratification of the specific right), a weighted average life of the mortgage servicing right of 73 months and a weighted average default rate of 0.2%. The fair value at December 31, 2021 was determined using discount rates ranging from 9.5% to 12.0%, prepayment speeds with a weighted average of 17.6% (depending on the stratification of the specific right), a weighted average life of the mortgage servicing right of 52 months and a weighted average default rate of 0.2%.

Impairment is determined by stratifying the mortgage servicing rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of certain individual groupings exceeded their fair values, resulting in write-downs to fair value. Refer to Note 14—Fair Values of Financial Instruments.

Note 7—FHLB Borrowings

FHLB Advances

FHLB borrowings at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consist of the following:

	June 30,				December 31,
	2022		Interest Rates		2021		Interest Rates
Long-term fixed rate advances	$	50,000	1.96	%	$	150,000	0.43% - 1.96	%

At June 30, 2022, the Company has long-term fixed-rate advances of $50,000 with a maturity date of May 2029. The advances require monthly interest-only payments with the principal amount due on the maturity date and may contain a prepayment penalty if paid before maturity. The advances may be callable by the FHLB in May 2024. In May of 2022, the Bank utilized its excess liquidity to repay $100,000 in long-term fixed rate advances which the FHLB had called using the call provision. At June 30, 2022, the Bank had additional borrowing capacity of $389,260 from the FHLB.

FHLB Overdraft Line of Credit and Letters of Credit

The Bank has established a short-term overdraft line of credit agreement with the FHLB, which provides for maximum borrowings of $20,000. The overdraft line of credit was not used during the six months ended June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under this agreement. Borrowings accrue interest based on a variable rate based on the FHLB’s overnight cost of funds rate, which was 1.90% and 0.43% at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The agreement has a one-year term and terminates in October 2022.

In 2021, the Bank entered into irrevocable standby letters of credit arrangements with the FHLB totaling $11,500 to provide credit support for certain of its obligations related to its commitment to repurchase certain pools of Advantage Loan Program loans. An irrevocable standby letter of credit of $7,500 has a 16-month term and expires in July 2022. An irrevocable standby letter of credit originally of $4,000 has a 36-month term and expires in July 2024. This letter was reduced to $2,000 during the second quarter of 2022; thereby, the Bank has total available letters of credit of $9,500 and $11,500 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were no borrowings outstanding on these standby letters of credit during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The long-term fixed-rate advances and the overdraft line of credit are collateralized by certain investment securities and loans. Refer to Note 3—Investment Securities for further information on securities pledged as collateral and Note 4—Loans for further information on loans pledged as collateral.

Other Borrowings

The Bank had available unsecured credit lines with other banks totaling $80,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There were no borrowings under these unsecured credit lines during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The interest rate was 6.86% and 5.94% at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Note premium costs are amortized over the contractual term of the Notes into interest expense using the effective interest method. Interest expense on these Notes was $1,090 and $1,005 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $2,054 and $2,185 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Notes mature in April 2026.

The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount being redeemed plus accrued interest, in a principal amount with integral multiples of $1. There have been no redemptions of the Notes. The Notes are not subject to redemption by the noteholder.

The Notes are unsecured obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness, deposits and other liabilities of the Company’s current and future subsidiaries, including the Bank’s deposits as well as the Company’s subsidiaries’ liabilities to general creditors and liabilities arising during the ordinary course of business. The Notes may be included in Tier 2 capital for the Company under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations.

The Company currently may not issue new debt without the prior approval of the FRB.

Note 9 – Shareholders’ Equity

In April 2022, the Company issued and contributed 160,978 shares of common stock to fund the matching contribution made under the Bank’s defined contribution retirement plan. The contribution amount of $1,138 was valued using the closing market price of the stock on the date contributed or $7.07 per share.

In May 2021, the Company issued and sold 300,000 unregistered shares of common stock to its chief executive officer pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement entered into at the time of the chief executive officer’s employment for cash consideration of $1,350 or $4.50 per share, the fair market value on date of sale.

Note 10—Stock-based Compensation

The board of directors established the 2020 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which was approved by the shareholders in December 2020. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of up to 3,979,661 shares of common stock for stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units and performance shares for issuance to employees, consultants and the board of directors of the Company. The stock-based awards are issued at no less than the market price on the date the awards are granted.

Previously, the board of directors had established a 2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) which was approved by the shareholders. The 2017 Plan initially provided for the grant of up to 4,237,100 shares of common stock for stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards for issuance to employees, consultants and the board of directors of the Company. The stock-based awards were issued at no less than the market price on the date the awards were granted. Due to the adoption of the 2020 Plan, no further grants will be issued under the 2017 Plan.

Stock Options

Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Beginning with grants in 2020, stock option awards vest ratably over three years (one-third per year) after the date of grant, while stock option awards granted prior to 2020 generally vest in installments of 50% in each of the third and fourth year after the date of grant. All stock option awards have a maximum term of ten years. No stock option awards were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is as follows:

				Weighted
		Weighted		Average
		Average		Remaining	Aggregate
	Number	Exercise		Contractual	Intrinsic
	of Shares	Price		Term	Value

Exercisable at June 30, 2022	344,506	$	5.14	7.69	$	510

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $2 and $46 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $(11) and $103 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was $6 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of less than one year.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards are issued to independent directors and certain key employees. The restricted stock awards generally vest ratably over three years (one-third per year) after the date of grant. The value of a restricted stock award is based on the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant reduced by the present value of dividends per share expected to be paid during the period the shares are not vested. Upon a change in control, as defined in the 2017 Plan and the 2020 Plan, the outstanding restricted stock awards will immediately vest.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the board of directors approved the issuance of 230,427 shares of restricted stock, of which 45,000 shares were awarded to independent directors and 185,427 shares were awarded to key employees. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the board of directors approved the issuance of 227,702 shares of restricted stock, of which 45,000 shares were awarded to independent directors and 182,702 shares were awarded to key employees.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company withheld 29,728 shares and 8,536 shares, respectively, of common stock representing a portion of the restricted stock awards that vested during the period in order to satisfy certain related employee tax withholding liabilities of $196 and $46, respectively, associated with vesting. These withheld shares are treated the same as repurchased shares for accounting purposes.

Note 11—Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Bank is subject to the capital adequacy requirements of the OCC. The Company, as a thrift holding company, is subject to the capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications for depository institutions like the Bank, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators, in their discretion, can require the Company to lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank, after consultation with the OCC, determined that a risk-weighting of 100% should be applied to its Advantage Loan Program loans under the risk weighting requirements for first-lien residential mortgage exposures set forth under the Basel III capital rules. Previously, the Company and the Bank generally applied a 50% risk weight to the Advantage Loan Program loans. The table below presents the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital amounts and ratios applying the 100% risk weight as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 for the Company’s and Bank’s total adjusted capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 (core) capital to risk-weighted assets and CET1 to risk weighted assets.

Under the Basel III capital rules, both the Company and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer (“CCB”) consisting of at least 2.5% above the minimum risk-based capital ratios, or 7.0% for common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio, 8.5% for Tier 1 capital ratio and 10.5% for total capital ratio, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers and similar employees.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company and the Bank had met all regulatory capital requirements to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios exceeded the requirements to be considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The following tables present the Company’s consolidated and the Bank’s actual and minimum required capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans:

In order to provide a comparable trend analysis for the Bank’s and the Company’s risk based capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans, the tables below present the regulatory capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight at December 31 for each of the past five years. At each of the year-end dates reported, the Company and the Bank had met all minimum regulatory capital requirements and applicable capital cushions to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank would have been considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The CCB requirement was phased in beginning on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and increased by 0.625% on each subsequent January 1, until the buffer was implemented in full at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the CCB at December 31, 2018 was 1.875% and the CCB at December 31, 2017 was 1.25%.

Dividend Restrictions

As noted above, banking regulations require the Bank to maintain certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by the holding company to its shareholders. The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank, and banking regulations limit the dividends that may be paid. Approval by regulatory authorities is required if (i) the total capital distributions for the applicable calendar year exceed the sum of the Bank’s net income for that year to date plus the Bank’s retained net income for the preceding two years or (ii) the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the distribution.

The Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) test requires that a minimum of 65% of assets be maintained in qualified thrift investments, including mortgage loans, housing- and real estate-related finance and other specified areas. If the QTL test is not met, limits are placed on growth, branching, new investments, FHLB advances and dividends, or the Bank must convert to a commercial bank charter. Management believes that the QTL test has been met. Also, pursuant to the terms of the subordinated note agreements, the Company may pay dividends if it is well capitalized as defined by regulatory guidelines.

The Bank is currently required to obtain the prior approval of the OCC in order to pay dividends to the Company due to the existence of a formal agreement with the OCC. Refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies. In addition, the Company currently is required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB in order to pay dividends to the Company’s shareholders.

Note 12—Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share further includes any common shares available to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards if such inclusions would be dilutive. In periods of a net loss, basic and diluted share information are the same. The Company determines the potentially dilutive common shares using the treasury stock method. The following table presents the computation of income (loss) per share, basic and diluted:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021

Note 13—Employee Benefit Plans

In May 2022, the Bank surrendered a large split-dollar life program and a few smaller bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) policies related to former executives and a controlling shareholder with a cash surrender value of $24.9 million. The $13.1 million increase in value over the duration of the ownership of the policies has moved from non-taxable income to taxable income, resulting in a $3.6 million increase in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additional taxes of $1.3 million relating to this surrender are included in other expense within non-interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

In connection with the surrender, the Bank also cancelled certain deferred compensation and the split dollar life insurance agreement with its controlling shareholder which resulted in the reversal of the related liabilities of $4.5 million which are included as a reduction in salaries and employee benefits expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 14—Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments include assets carried at fair value, as well as certain assets and liabilities carried at cost or amortized cost but disclosed at fair value in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Fair value is defined as the exit price, the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date under current market conditions. The inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value are prioritized into a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

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

The following methods and significant assumptions are used to estimate fair value:

Investment Securities

The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar investment securities (Level 2). For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar investment securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to LIBOR curves that are updated to incorporate loss severities, volatility, credit spread and optionality. During times when trading is more liquid, broker quotes are used (if available) to validate the analysis. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as defaults and deferrals on individual investment securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Fair value is determined based on outstanding commitments from investors or quoted prices for loans with similar characteristics (Level 2).

Impaired Loans

The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach, such as comparable sales or the income approach, or a combination of both. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are performed by certified general appraisers whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by management. Once received, an appraisal compliance review is completed in accordance with regulatory guidelines.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is initially determined at the individual grouping level based on an internal valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. On a quarterly basis, mortgage servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon third-party valuations obtained. As disclosed in Note 5—Mortgage Servicing Rights, net, the valuation model utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income (Level 3).

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The table below presents the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized by the level of inputs used in the valuation of each asset at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The table below presents a reconciliation for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Fair Value Measurements Using Significant
	Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Unrealized losses on Level 3 investments for collateralized debt obligations was $5 and $8 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. In addition to the amounts included in income as presented in the table above, interest income recorded on collateralized debt obligations was $3 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The fair value of the collateralized debt obligations is obtained from third-party pricing information. It is determined by calculating discounted cash flows using LIBOR curves plus spreads that adjust for credit risk and illiquidity. The Company also performs an internal analysis that considers the structure and term of the collateralized debt obligations and the financial condition of the underlying issuers to corroborate the information used from the independent third party.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

From time to time, the Bank may be required to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the related carrying value:

As discussed above, the fair values of collateral-dependent impaired loans carried at fair value are determined by third-party appraisals. Management adjusts these appraised values based on the age of the appraisal and the type of the property. The following tables present quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Amounts received under such subleases totaled $97 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and $112 and $192 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The sublease agreements ended on March 31, 2022.

Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Unfunded Commitments to Extend Credit

A commitment to extend credit, such as a loan commitment, credit line and overdraft protection, is a legally binding agreement to lend funds to a customer, usually at a stated interest rate and for a specific purpose. Such commitments have fixed expiration dates and generally require a fee. The extension of a commitment gives rise to credit risk. The actual liquidity requirements or credit risk that the Bank will experience is expected to be lower than the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit because a significant portion of those commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Certain commitments are subject to loan agreements containing covenants regarding the financial performance of the customer that must be met before the Bank is required to fund the commitment. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does in making loans.

The commitments outstanding to make loans include primarily residential real estate loans that are made for a period of 90 days or less. At June 30, 2022, outstanding commitments to make loans consisted of variable rate loans of $2,802 at varying interest rates ranging from 3.125% to 4.375% at June 30, 2022 with maturities of 30 years.

Unused Lines of Credit

The Bank also issues unused lines of credit to meet customer financing needs. At June 30, 2022, the unused lines of credit include residential second mortgages of $10,618 and construction loans of $16,682 totaling $27,300. These unused lines of credit are associated with variable rate commitments at interest rates ranging from 4.0% to 6.95% with maturities ranging from one month to 23 years.

Standby Letters of Credit

Standby letters of credit are issued on behalf of customers in connection with construction contracts between the customers and third parties. Under standby letters of credit, the Bank assures that the third parties will receive specified funds if customers fail to meet their contractual obligations. The credit risk to the Bank arises from its obligation to make payment in the event of a customer’s contractual default. The maximum amount of potential future payments guaranteed by the Bank is limited to the contractual amount of these letters. Collateral may be obtained at exercise of the commitment. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

The following is a summary of the total amount of unfunded commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021
Commitments to make loans	$	2,802	$	23,610
Unused lines of credit		27,300		45,805
Standby letters of credit		24		24

Legal Proceedings

The Company and its subsidiaries may be subject to legal actions and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings, except as described below, that are considered other than routine legal proceedings. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition or resolution of its routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are immaterial to its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The Bank is currently under formal investigation by the OCC generally relating to its former residential loan product marketed as the Advantage Loan Program and related matters (the “OCC Investigation”) and continues to be subject to a publicly available formal agreement with the OCC, dated June 18, 2019 (the “OCC Agreement”), relating primarily to certain aspects of its Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”) compliance program as well as the Bank’s credit administration. The OCC Agreement generally requires that the Bank enhance its policies and procedures to ensure compliance with BSA/AML laws and regulations and ensure effective controls over residential loan underwriting.

(dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

The Bank is fully cooperating with the OCC Investigation and has implemented the items necessary to achieve compliance with the obligations in the OCC Agreement. A finding by the OCC that the Bank failed to comply with the OCC Agreement or adverse findings in the OCC Investigation could result in additional regulatory scrutiny, constraints on the Bank’s business, or other formal enforcement action, including the assessment of fines and penalties. Any of those events could have a material adverse effect on our future operations, financial condition, growth, or other aspects of our business.

The Bank also has received grand jury subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) beginning in 2020 requesting the production of documents and information in connection with an investigation that appears to be focused on the Bank’s Advantage Loan Program and related issues, including residential lending practices and public disclosures about that program contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC. The Bank is fully cooperating with this ongoing investigation. Adverse findings in the DOJ investigation could result in material losses due to damages, restitution, penalties, costs, and/or expenses imposed on the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations, financial condition, growth, or other aspects of the business.

The Company is currently under a formal investigation by the SEC. This investigation appears to be focused on accounting, financial reporting and disclosure matters, as well as the Company’s internal controls, related to the Advantage Loan Program. The Company has received document and information requests from the SEC and is fully cooperating with this investigation. Adverse findings in the SEC investigation could result in material losses due to penalties, disgorgement, costs and/or expenses imposed on the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations, financial condition, growth or other aspects of its business.

The Bank has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in its efforts to comply with the OCC Agreement and respond to the government investigations, which are reflected in the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Adverse findings in any of the aforementioned government investigations could also have collateral consequences for the Company and the Bank, such as creating breaches of representation in certain third-party agreements and loss of eligibility to participate in certain government programs and programs of government sponsored entities.

In 2019, the Company commenced an internal review of the Advantage Loan Program and related matters (the “Internal Review”). The primary focus of the Internal Review, which has been led by outside legal counsel at the direction of a special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”), has involved the origination of residential real estate loans under the Advantage Loan Program and related matters. Results from the Special Committee’s Internal Review have indicated that certain employees engaged in misconduct in connection with the origination of a significant number of such loans, including with respect to verification of income, the amount of income reported for borrowers, reliance on third parties, and related documentation. As a result, the Company permanently discontinued the Advantage Loan Program. While the Internal Review is substantially complete, the Company expects the Internal Review to remain open during the pendency of the government investigations discussed herein, and it is possible additional work will be required in connection with the Internal Review.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has a liability for contingent losses of $15,000 for the outcome of the pending investigations. There can be no assurance (i) that the Company will not incur material losses due to damages, penalties, costs and/or expenses as a result of such investigations, (ii) that the accrual for contingent losses will be sufficient to cover such losses, or (iii) that such losses will not materially exceed such accrual and have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

In addition, on July 28, 2020, the Company received a demand letter from two law firms representing a purported shareholder of the Company (the “Shareholder Demand”) alleging that members of the Company’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties of oversight and disclosure based on allegations concerning the Bank’s residential lending practices and disclosures concerning those practices that were made in the Company’s registration statement and prospectus for its initial public offering, in subsequent press releases, in periodic and other filings with the SEC and during earnings calls. The Shareholder Demand requested that the board of directors take action to (1) recover damages the Company has purportedly sustained as a result of alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by certain of its officers and directors; (2) recover for the benefit of the Company the amounts by which certain of its officers and directors purportedly were unjustly enriched; and (3) correct alleged deficiencies in the Company’s internal controls. Following receipt of the Shareholder Demand, the Company’s board of directors established a demand review committee consisting of independent directors, none of whom were named in the Shareholder Demand.

On January 21, 2022, the Company and the purported shareholder entered into an agreement in the form of a definitive stipulation of settlement (the “Settlement”). Pursuant to the Settlement, the Company agreed to adopt and implement substantial corporate governance reforms, many of which have been implemented, and pay attorneys’ fees and expenses in exchange for the release of all defendants from all alleged claims therein. The Settlement provides customary releases of certain individuals and entities, including the current board of directors and certain former board members, and reserves for the Company’s board of directors the exclusive right to continue to evaluate and pursue claims against non-released individuals based on their conduct concerning, related to, or arising from the matters raised in the Shareholder Demand. The Settlement remains subject to final court approval and other customary conditions. Reimbursement of the plaintiff attorneys’ fees and expenses of $650 due under the Settlement will be paid by the Company’s insurance carriers under applicable insurance policies. A loss recovery receivable of $650 was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021, in the amount of the liability for the total of the attorneys’ fees and expenses also recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021. On April 25, 2022, the court granted preliminary approval of the Settlement, and a final approval hearing is currently scheduled to be held before the court on September 29, 2022.

Mortgage Repurchase Liability

During the period 2015 through 2019, the Company sold portfolio loans originated under the Advantage Loan Program to private investors in the secondary market. The Company also sells conventional residential real estate loans (which excludes Advantage Loan Program loans) in the secondary market primarily to Fannie Mae on an ongoing basis. In connection with these loans sold, the Company makes customary representations and warranties about various characteristics of each loan. The Company may be required pursuant to the terms of the applicable mortgage loan purchase and sale agreements to repurchase any previously sold loan or indemnify (make whole) the investor for which the representation or warranty of the Company proves to be inaccurate, incomplete or misleading. In the event of a repurchase, the Company is typically required to pay the unpaid principal balance, the proportionate premium received when selling the loan and certain expenses. As a result, the Company may incur a loss with respect to each repurchased loan.

In 2019, in connection with the above mentioned investigations stemming from the Advantage Loan Program, the Bank recorded a mortgage repurchase liability of $7,823, primarily related to probable losses on the previously sold Advantage Loan Program portfolio. The Company determined that these losses became probable in the latter part of the fourth quarter of 2019, taking into account the results of the Internal Review. In 2020, based on further analysis, the Company increased the mortgage repurchase liability by $2,527.

To avoid the uncertainty of audits and inquiries by third-party investors in the Advantage Loan Program, beginning at the end of the second quarter of 2020, the Company commenced making offers to each of those investors to repurchase 100% of the previously sold Advantage Loan Program loans. Since this time, certain third-party investors have accepted this offer. In May 2022, the Company repurchased a pool of Advantage Loan Program loans with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $30,380, which was not subject to an existing written agreement to repurchase. In connection with this repurchase, the Company recognized a loss of $695 related to a fair value discount in other non-interest expense and a disposition of $376 of mortgage servicing rights, and charged a loss of $622 against the mortgage repurchase liability. Through June 30, 2022, the Company has repurchased pools of Advantage Loan Program loans previously sold with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $273,847. Pursuant to the existing agreements with such investors, the Company also agreed to repurchase additional pools of Advantage Loan Program loans at the predetermined repurchase prices stated in the agreements. The Company may be required to repurchase the additional pools of Advantage Loan Program loans within the time ranges specified in the following table, with the final decision to effect any such repurchase and the specific date of repurchase within each range to be determined by the applicable investor. Losses expected to be incurred upon the repurchase of such loans are reflected in the mortgage repurchase liability.

		Outstanding

Present – July 22, 2023		23,071
July 25, 2022 – July 25, 2023		14,475
	$	60,802

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank’s mortgage repurchase liability was $1,807 and $2,954, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid principal balance of residential real estate loans sold that were subject to potential repurchase obligations for breach of representations and warranties totaled $177,704 and $237,049 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, including Advantage Loan Program loans totaling $89,648 and $142,810 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The mortgage repurchase liability reflects management’s estimate of losses based on a combination of factors. The Company’s estimation process requires management to make subjective and complex judgements about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future repurchase demand expectations, economic factors and findings from the Internal Review. The actual repurchase losses could vary significantly from the recorded mortgage repurchase liability, depending on the outcome of various factors, including those previously discussed.

Activity in the mortgage repurchase liability was as follows:

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and they are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.

New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of any particular risk, uncertainty or other factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

The following overview should be read in conjunction with our MD&A in its entirety.

Company Overview

We are a unitary thrift holding company headquartered in Southfield, Michigan and our primary business is the operation of our wholly owned subsidiary, Sterling Bank. Through Sterling Bank, we offer a range of loan products to the residential and commercial markets, as well as retail banking services.

Internal Review, Investigations and Regulatory Matters Related to the Advantage Loan Program

The primary focus of the Internal Review, which has been led by outside legal counsel under the direction of the Special Committee, has involved the origination of residential real estate loans under the Advantage Loan Program and related matters. The Internal Review has indicated that certain employees engaged in misconduct in connection with the origination of a significant number of such loans, including with respect to verification of income and employment, the amount of income reported for borrowers, reliance on third parties, and related documentation. As a result, the Company permanently discontinued the Advantage Loan Program, and a significant number of officers and employees have been terminated or resigned, including the top loan producers within the Advantage Loan Program. While the Internal Review is substantially complete, the Company expects it to remain open during the pendency of the government investigations discussed below, and it is possible additional work will be required in connection with the Internal Review.

The Bank is currently under formal investigation by the OCC, is responding to grand jury subpoenas from the DOJ and is responding to a formal investigation by the SEC, all of which are related to the Advantage Loan Program and, with respect to the DOJ and the SEC, the related disclosures of that program in the Company’s federal securities law filings. The Bank also continues to be subject to the OCC Agreement, which relates primarily to certain aspects of the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance program as well as its credit administration. While the OCC Agreement remains in effect, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions on expansion activities, such as growth through acquisition or branching to supplement organic growth of the Bank.

39

The Company incurred significant legal, consulting and other third-party expenses during the second quarter of 2022, as it has over the past two years, in connection with the Internal Review; the OCC, DOJ and SEC investigations; compliance with the OCC Agreement; defending litigation related to the Advantage Loan Program and reimbursing current and former officers and directors for their out-of-pocket legal costs in connection with the government investigations. For additional information regarding these matters, see “Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings” and “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Overview of Quarterly Performance

The Company experienced a net loss of $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to net income of $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Our net interest margin continued to improve, though our loan portfolio continued to decline which reduced our net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2021. Also contributing to the net loss for the second quarter of 2022 compared to net income for the second quarter of 2021 are continued elevated professional fees attributable to the ongoing government investigations and regulatory compliance improvements. Our recovery for loan losses for the second quarter of 2022 was lower than the recovery for loan losses for the second quarter of 2021 as our asset quality remained stable during the second quarter of 2022 with nonperforming assets of $55.0 million at June 30, 2022, although our loan portfolio continued to decline. Although our income before income taxes declined in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, our income tax expense increased largely due to the tax impact on the gain associated with the surrender of a large split-dollar life program and a few smaller BOLI policies related to certain former executives and a controlling shareholder with a cash surrender value of $24.9 million during the second quarter of 2022.

We continued to experience significant repayments in our loan portfolio in excess of our loan originations contributing to our excess liquidity and used a portion of that liquidity to allow higher cost deposits to mature without renewal. This resulted in the continued overall decline of our consolidated balance sheet, with total assets declining from $2.9 billion at December 31, 2021 to $2.5 billion at June 30, 2022. We also used some of the excess liquidity to increase our investment securities and pay down our FHLB advances.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we continued to focus on strengthening our net interest margin while completing several undertakings. During the second quarter of 2022, we outsourced our residential loan origination function to Promontory MortgagePath (“MortgagePath”), which provides community banks with an outsourced residential lending service for mortgage loan production. The transition was fully implemented and launched at the end of May 2022. MortgagePath employs staff primarily dedicated to the origination of the Bank’s loan products, which are underwritten pursuant to the Bank’s lending policies. The Bank maintains the final credit decision. In connection with the transition, during the second quarter of 2022, we achieved a reduction in force of 35 full-time equivalent positions in our in-house mortgage origination area.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Bank repurchased a pool of Advantage Loan Program loans with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $30.4 million. In connection with this repurchase, the Company recognized a loss of $0.7 million related to a fair value discount in other non-interest expense and a disposition of $0.4 million of mortgage servicing rights, and charged a loss of $0.6 million against the mortgage repurchase liability.

Our regulatory capital ratios remained well above the levels required to be considered well capitalized for regulatory purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

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

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no significant changes to our accounting policies that we believe are critical to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations, which critical accounting policies are disclosed in our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K.

Financial Condition

The Company’s total assets were $2.5 billion at June 30, 2022 compared to $2.9 billion at December 31, 2021. Total loans, net of allowance for loan losses, decreased to $1.7 billion compared to $2.0 billion at December 31, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company originated loans held for investment, consisting of residential real estate loans of $53.9 million and commercial real estate loans of $28.7 million, residential real estate loans held for sale of $1.8 million, and commercial and industrial loans of $1.1 million. The Company also repurchased Advantage Loan Program loans with an aggregate principal balance of $30.4 million. The investment securities portfolio increased $68.4 million, or 22%, to $382.3 million at June 30, 2022 from $313.9 million at December 31, 2021, which is attributable to purchases of additional investments totaling $108.3 million, partially offset by maturing investments, totaling $21.9 million. The significant loan repayments experienced during the six months ended June 30, 2022 continued the trend over the past several years in our Advantage Loan Program portfolio and were the primary driver of the continued reduction of the consolidated balance sheet. Most of the excess liquidity from the loan repayments was used to fund maturing time deposits that generally carried higher interest rates. Total deposits decreased $257.5 million, or 11%, to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2022. FHLB borrowings decreased from $150.0 million at December 31, 2021 to $50.0 million at June 30, 2022, which is attributable to repayment of $100.0 million in FHLB advances during the second quarter of 2022.

At June 30, 2022, we have adjustable-rate loans totaling $1.1 billion, or 63%, in our loan portfolio, that are LIBOR-indexed currently and will reprice to an interest rate based on LIBOR, until LIBOR is no longer available as a reference rate. At June 30, 2022, $160.6 million, or 10%, of our adjustable interest rate loans were at their interest rate floor. See Part I, Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk relating to the discontinuance of LIBOR and the expected conversion of our LIBOR based loans to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”)-based rates.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans that are 90 or more days past due and still accruing interest, troubled debt restructurings and nonaccrual loans held for sale. For nonaccrual loans, interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed and charged against income at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual 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.

Troubled debt restructurings are modified loans in which a borrower demonstrated financial difficulties and for which a concession has been granted. However, not all troubled debt restructurings are placed on nonaccrual status. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had troubled debt restructurings totaling $8.4 million and $18.4 million, respectively. Troubled debt restructurings on nonaccrual status at such dates totaled $5.8 million and $15.8 million, respectively, and are included in the nonaccrual loan categories in the following table. See Note 4—Loans—Troubled Debt Restructurings to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about our troubled debt restructurings.

If nonaccrual loans held for sale are included, the ratio of total nonaccrual loans to total gross loans would be 2.93% and 3.88% at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

(3) Other troubled debt restructurings exclude those loans presented above as nonaccrual or past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.

As of June 30, 2022, nonperforming assets totaled $55.0 million, reflecting a decrease of $28.3 million from $83.3 million as of December 31, 2021. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decline in nonaccrual loans. Our ratio of nonaccrual loans to total loans decreased from 3.11% at December 31, 2021 to 2.72% at June 30, 2022. This decrease is primarily due to nonaccrual loans being paid in full, and to a lesser extent loans returning to accrual status. When including nonaccrual loans held for sale the ratio of nonaccrual loans to total gross loans decreased from 3.88% at December 31, 2021 to 2.93% at June 30, 2022. This is primarily due to the sale of the commercial real estate loan portfolio held for sale during the first quarter of 2022.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $48.3 million at June 30, 2022, reflecting a decrease of $14.3 million, from a balance of $62.6 million at December 31, 2021. Nonaccrual residential real estate loans totaled $42.6 million at June 30, 2022, reflecting a decrease of $3.1 million from $45.7 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in nonaccrual residential real estate loans occurred primarily as a result of loans totaling $9.9 million that were paid in full and loans totaling $6.9 million that returned to accrual status, which was partially offset by loans totaling $10.9 million that were added to nonaccrual status. The remaining nonaccrual commercial real estate loan at December 31, 2021, was subsequently paid in full during the first quarter of 2022. Nonaccrual construction loans totaled $5.8 million at June 30, 2022, reflecting a decrease of $6.7 million from $12.5 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in nonaccrual construction loans occurred primarily as a result of two construction loans totaling $6.6 million that were paid in full.

Nonaccrual loans held for sale totaled $4.0 million at June 30, 2022, reflecting a decrease of $14.0 million, from $18.0 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in nonaccrual loans held for sale primarily is due to the sale of commercial real estate loans totaling $9.4 million and residential real estate loans totaling $4.8 million that were paid in full. The commercial real estate loans were sold as part of the larger sale of commercial real estate loans to a third-party purchaser in February 2022 for cash proceeds of $49.6 million. These loans were secured primarily by single-room occupancy (SRO) properties.

Total loans 90 days or more past due, including nonaccrual loans, decreased $14.3 million, or 23%, from $62.7 million at December 31, 2021 to $48.4 million at June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to loans that were paid in full totaling $17.2 million and loans moved from delinquent status to current totaling $6.9 million, which was partially offset by the addition of delinquent loans totaling $10.9 million during the current period.

Classified Loans. We categorize loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. The four risk categories utilized are Pass, Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful. Loans in the Pass category are considered to be of satisfactory quality, while the remaining three categories indicate varying levels of credit risk. See Note 4—Loans—Credit Quality to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about our risk categories.

Loans classified as Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful were as follows at the dates indicated:

Classified assets to total loans		6	%		45	%		6	%		6	%		89	%		8	%

Total Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful loans were $109.1 million, or 6% of total gross loans, at June 30, 2022, compared to $175.2 million, or 8% of total gross loans, at December 31, 2021. All of the three loan classifications, noted above, decreased from December 31, 2021.

44

The increase of $5.9 million in Special Mention loans held for investment was primarily attributable to loans that were downgraded totaling $18.4 million, loans that were upgraded from Substandard totaling $5.7 million, and the issuance of bridge loans to pay in full a construction loan totaling $5.9 million which is partially offset by the upgrade of loans totaling $9.6 million and loans that were paid in full totaling $14.3 million. The decrease of $11.8 million in Substandard loans held for investment was primarily attributable to loans that were paid in full totaling $16.1 million and loans that were upgraded totaling $12.7 million, which were partially offset by loans upgraded from Doubtful totaling $5.9 million and loans downgraded totaling $10.8 million.

The large decrease in classified loans held for sale is primarily due to the sale of substantially all of our commercial real estate portfolio held for sale during the first quarter of 2022. The sale of this pool of loans contributed to the overall improvement of our credit metrics.

Impaired Loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral or operations of collateral. See Note 4—Loans to our condensed consolidated financial statements for tables presenting additional data regarding the allowance for loan losses and impaired loans.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had impaired loans with a total recorded investment of $8.4 million and $19.9 million, respectively. Total impaired loans decreased $11.5 million, or 58%, from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022, primarily attributable to construction loans that were paid in full totaling $6.6 million and a commercial real estate loan that was paid in full totaling $4.4 million.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at levels considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet reporting dates. The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s assessment of various quantitative and qualitative factors affecting the loan portfolio, including portfolio composition, net charge-offs, delinquent and nonaccrual loans, foreclosures, Bank-specific factors (e.g., staff experience, underwriting guidelines etc.), national and local business conditions, historical loss experience, an overall evaluation of the quality of the underlying collateral and other external factors. Certain qualitative components within our allowance for loan losses methodology took on increased significance in prior periods, and to a lesser extent in the most recent period, as a result of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. These qualitative components include unemployment, commercial property vacancy rates, uncertainty in property values and deterioration in the overall macro-economic environment.

Our total allowance for loan losses decreased by $4.8 million, or 8%, from $56.5 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to our overall reduction in our loan portfolio that has resulted from the decline in our loan production as a result of the discontinuation of the Advantage Loan Program and the absence of new loan products, as well as improvement in the credit quality of our loan portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Net recoveries during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Net recoveries during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

The following table sets forth the allowance for loan losses allocated by loan category at the dates indicated. The allowance for loan losses allocated to each category is not necessarily indicative of future losses in any particular category and does not restrict the use of the allowance for loan losses to absorb losses in other categories.

(1) Nonaccrual loans exclude nonaccrual loans held for sale but include troubled debt restructurings on nonaccrual status.

(2) Nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings exclude nonaccrual loans and troubled debt restructurings in loans held for sale.

Our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of our loan portfolio was 2.91% and 2.81% as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. In addition, our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was 107% and 90% as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. This increase is primarily attributable to our significant decline in nonaccrual loans. See “Results of Operations—Provision (Recovery) for Loan Losses” for additional information about our provision (recovery) for loan losses.

Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary and our results of operations could be adversely affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in determining the allowance for loan losses. Furthermore, while we believe we have established our allowance for loan losses in conformity with U.S. GAAP, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing our loan portfolio, will not require us to increase our allowance for loan losses. In addition, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that increases will not be necessary should the quality of any loans deteriorate. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Investment Securities Portfolio

The following table sets forth the amortized cost and estimated fair value of our available for sale debt securities portfolio at the dates indicated.

	At June 30,				At December 31,
	2022				2021
	Amortized		Fair		Amortized		Fair
	Cost		Value		Cost		Value

U.S. Treasury and Agency securities	$	186,002	$	181,188	$	122,291	$	122,168

Total	$	396,306	$	377,492	$	309,903	$	308,657

We increased the size of our available for sale debt securities portfolio (on an amortized-cost basis) by $86.4 million, or 28%, from December 31, 2021 to $396.3 million at June 30, 2022, with the purchase of $108.3 million in investment securities, primarily treasury securities, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The purchase of investment securities is consistent with the utilization of our excess liquidity.

We review the debt securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to determine the cause, magnitude and duration of declines in the fair value of each security. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment, we consider many factors including: (1) the length of time and extent that 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 we have the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recorded through income as an impairment. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: (1) other-than-temporary impairment related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income and (2) other-than-temporary impairment related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). The credit loss is measured as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis. The assessment of whether any other-than-temporary decline exists may involve a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time. We evaluate debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation.

At June 30, 2022, gross unrealized losses on debt securities totaled $19.1 million. We do not consider the debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2022, since (i) the decline in fair value of the debt securities is attributable to changes in market value due to the current rising interest rate environment, not credit quality, (ii) we do not have the intent to sell the debt securities and (iii) it is likely that we will not be required to sell the debt securities before their anticipated recovery.

Our equity securities consist of an investment in a qualified community reinvestment act investment fund, which is a publicly-traded mutual fund, and an investment in the common equity of Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank, a thinly traded restricted stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities totaled $4.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively.

Deposits

Deposits are the primary source of funding for the Company. We regularly review the need to adjust our deposit offering rates on various deposit products in order to maintain a stable liquidity profile and a competitive cost of funds.

48

Total deposits were $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2022, a decrease of $257.5 million, or 11%, compared to $2.3 billion at December 31, 2021. Our time deposits decreased by $222.2 million, or 25%, due to our strategy to reduce time deposits by repricing time deposits at less attractive rates. Our money market, savings and NOW accounts decreased by $53.9 million, or 4%, and our noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $18.6 million, or 29% from December 31, 2021. Time deposits included brokered deposits of $20.1 million at December 31, 2021. We had no brokered deposits at June 30, 2022. We continue to focus on core deposits, which we define as all deposits except for time deposits greater than $0.25 million and brokered deposits. Core deposits totaled $1.8 billion, or 91% of total deposits, at June 30, 2022 compared to $2.0 billion, or 88% of total deposits, at December 31, 2021.

Borrowings

In addition to deposits, we generally use short-term borrowings, such as FHLB advances and an FHLB overdraft credit line, as sources of funds to meet the daily liquidity needs of our customers. Any short-term FHLB advances would consist primarily of advances of funds for one- or two-week periods.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, outstanding FHLB borrowings totaled $50.0 million and $150.0 million, respectively, and there were no amounts outstanding on lines of credit with other banks. In May 2022 the Company repaid $100 million in borrowings with the FHLB as a result of a call provision that allowed the Federal Home Loan Bank to require payment. In addition, $65.0 million in principal amount of our Subordinated Notes, due April 15, 2026, remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2022, we had the ability to borrow an additional $409.3 million from the FHLB, which included an available line of credit of $20.0 million. In addition, we have standby letters of credit, totaling $9.5 million, which provide credit support for certain of our obligations related to our commitments to repurchase certain pools of Advantage Loan Program loans. We also had available credit lines with other banks totaling $80.0 million.

Shareholders’ Equity

Total shareholders’ equity was $335.3 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $343.6 million at December 31, 2021. The decline in shareholders’ equity is primarily due to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $12.7 million due to increased unrealized losses on our investment securities portfolio. These unrealized losses on our investment portfolio are primarily attributable to changes in market value due to the current rising interest rate environment but will not necessarily impact our eventual realized returns since the Bank has both the intent and ability to hold these investment securities until maturity or the price recovers. This decrease is partially offset by net income of $3.1 million. Shareholders’ equity also reflects the issuance of 160,978 common shares for $1.1 million that were issued to fund our matching contribution to the defined contribution retirement plan.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

General. The Company experienced a net loss of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $5.7 million compared to net income of $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Net income was $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $2.7 million compared to net income of $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Average Balance Sheet and Related Yields and Rates. The following table presents average balance sheet information, interest income, interest expense and the corresponding average yields earned and rates paid for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The average balances are daily averages and, for loans, include both performing and nonperforming balances. Interest income on loans includes the effects of discount accretion and net deferred loan origination costs accounted for as yield adjustments.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends primarily upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the corresponding interest rates earned or paid. Our net interest income is significantly impacted by changes in interest rates and market yield curves and their related impact on cash flows.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Net interest income was $19.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $4.1 million, or 17%, from $23.6 million for the same period in 2021.

Interest income was $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $7.8 million, or 25%, from the same period in 2021. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to a decline in the average balance of the loan portfolio of $554.9 million, or 23%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in our average balance of loans is primarily due to our loan repayments continuing to outpace our loan production in regard to residential real estate loans and our decision to stop actively originating construction loans combined with our successful efforts to obtain repayment of our construction loans. The decrease in interest income on loans was offset by an increase in interest income on investment securities of $1.0 million as the average yield on our investment portfolio increased when compared to the same period in 2021.

The decline in interest income also reflects a decline in the average yield on our loan portfolio. Our average yield on our loans decreased 52 basis points, to 4.51% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 5.03% compared to the same period of the prior year. The average yield on our residential real estate and other consumer loans decreased 39 basis points from the three months ended June 30, 2021. Throughout 2021, the one-year LIBOR index remained at historically low levels with it beginning to rise in the first quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2022. The interest rates on our residential loan portfolio continued to reprice downward during 2021, which included new production originating at much lower rates than the loans that paid off.

51

The average balance of our investment securities and other interest-earning assets, which generally are lower-yielding and more liquid than our loans, was $803.1 million for three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2021. These assets had an average yield of 107 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of 85 basis points from the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest expense was $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 52%, from the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in interest expense reflects a decline in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities of 30 basis points, to 0.62% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 0.92% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. A large part of the decrease in the average cost of interest bearing liabilities is due to a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits, which decreased $661.0 million, or 24%, in the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $2.7 billion in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease is primarily driven by a decrease in the average balance of time deposits which makes up $604.9 million of this decrease and also carries higher cost. Additionally, the average balance of FHLB borrowings decreased $207.6 million from June 30, 2021 and is the result of the repayment of $157.0 million in borrowings during the fourth quarter of 2021 and $100.0 million during the second quarter of 2022.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Net interest income was $40.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $6.1 million, or 13%, from $46.8 million for the same period in 2021.

Interest income was $47.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $14.8 million, or 24%, from the same period in 2021. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to a decline in the average balance of the loan portfolio of $509.5 million, or 21%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in our average balance of loans is primarily due to our loan repayments continuing to outpace our loan production in regard to residential real estate loans and our decision to stop actively originating construction loans combined with our successful efforts to obtain repayment of our construction loans.

The decline in interest income also reflects a decline in the average yield on our loan portfolio. Our average yield on our loans decreased 40 basis points, to 4.65% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 5.05% in the same period of the prior year. The average yield on our residential real estate and other consumer loans decreased 45 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2021. Throughout 2021, the one-year LIBOR index remained at historically low levels with it starting to rise in the first quarter of 2022 and continuing through the second quarter of 2022. The interest rates on our residential loan portfolio continued to reprice downward as a result, which included new production originating at much lower rates than the loans that paid off. The average yield on our commercial real estate and construction loan portfolios increased during the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to collection of approximately $1.5 million of interest on nonperforming commercial real estate and construction loans during the first quarter of 2022.

The average balance of our investment securities and other interest-earning assets, which generally are lower-yielding and more liquid than our loans, was $803.0 million for six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021. These assets had an average yield of 0.80% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of 59 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest expense was $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $8.7 million, or 55%, from the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in interest expense was due in part to a decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits which decreased $742.9 million, or 26%, in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease is primarily driven by a decrease in the average balance of time deposits which makes up $679.1 million of this decrease and also carry a higher cost, thereby contributing the lower average cost of interest-bearing deposits. Additionally, the average balance of FHLB borrowings decreased $187.9 million from June 30, 2021 and is the result of the repayment of $157.0 million in borrowings during the fourth quarter of 2021 and $100.0 million during the second quarter of 2022.

52

Net Interest Margin and Interest Rate Spread. Net interest margin was 2.95% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, up 25 basis points from 2.70% for the same period in 2021. The interest rate spread was 2.85% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, up 26 basis points from 2.59% for the same period in 2021.

Net interest margin was 2.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, up 42 basis points from 2.57% for the same period in 2021. The interest rate spread was 2.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, up 44 basis points from 2.45% for the same period in 2021.

Our net interest margin and interest rate spread were positively impacted for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 by a reduction in the cost of our total interest-bearing liabilities.

Provision (Recovery) for Loan Losses. Our recovery for loan losses was $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a recovery for loan losses of $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Our recovery for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to a decrease in our total loan portfolio of $96.5 million during the quarter while credit quality remained stable throughout the quarter.

Our recovery for loan losses was $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a recovery for loan losses of $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Our recovery for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to improvement in the credit quality of our loan portfolio during the six-month period, which includes the effects of a $12.1 million decrease of Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful loans and the sale of the pool of SRO loans in the first quarter of 2022, as well as a decrease in our total loan portfolio of $234.7 million from December 31, 2021. See “—Asset Quality” and “—Allowance for Loan Losses” for further discussion regarding our classified loans and the credit quality of our loan portfolio.

Our total allowance for loan losses decreased to $51.8 million, or 2.91% of total loans, at June 30, 2022 compared to $56.5 million, or 2.81% of total loans, at December 31, 2021.

Non-interest income of $45 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2022 reflected an increase of $0.3 million from the same period in 2021. Non-interest income of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 reflected an increase of $1.3 million from the same period in 2021. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to an increase in net servicing income (loss) in both the three and six month periods. Losses on mortgage servicing rights due to the repurchase of Advantage Loan Program loans were much higher in the 2021 periods because a greater volume of loan repurchases were completed then compared to 2022. The three and six month periods ending June 30, 2022 include $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in recoveries on mortgage servicing rights valuations which were not present in 2021. See Note 5—Mortgage Servicing Rights, net to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about our mortgage servicing rights. This increase in net servicing income (loss) is offset by higher unrealized losses on equity securities experienced during 2022 related to changes in fair value due to the current rising interest rate environment.

Non-interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were $19.5 million and $38.9 million, respectively, compared to $19.9 million and $41.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased for the three and six month periods when compared to the same periods in the prior year. This decrease was primarily attributable to the cancellation of certain deferred compensation and split dollar life insurance agreement with its controlling shareholder which resulted in the reversal of the related liabilities of $4.5 millon upon surrender of a large split-dollar life program and certain BOLI policies during the second quarter of 2022. This reversal of expense was partially offset by continued hiring of employees in key positions, salary adjustments given to employees to maintain compensation at competitive levels, and enhancements made to existing employee benefit plans. Salaries and employee benefits expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 also reflects $0.4 million in separation costs related to the reduction in our mortgage origination staff as well as approximately one month of savings due to the staff reduction.

Professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased $1.3 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, which included a $2.3 million insurance reimbursement received in the second quarter of 2021. Absent the reimbursement, professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2022 would have reflected a slight decline from the prior year period. Professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2022 declined by $2.2 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, which decline would have been greater but for the insurance reimbursement. Professional fees for the first three months of 2022 declined as many of these projects required by the OCC Agreement and the BSA/AML compliance programs have been completed. However, the ongoing impact of these declines were mostly offset during the three months ended June 30, 2022 due to the ongoing costs related to the government investigations with respect to the Advantage Loan Program, including increased direct and third-party legal expenses.

Other non-interest expense increased during the three month and six month periods largely due to additional tax of $1.3 million incurred during the second quarter of 2022 related to certain BOLI policies surrendered.

54

Income Tax Expense. We recorded an income tax expense of $3.3 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to an income tax expense of $1.7 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. During the second quarter of 2022, the Bank surrendered a large split-dollar life program and a few smaller BOLI policies related to former executives and a controlling shareholder with a cash surrender value of $24.9 million. The $13.1 million increase in value over the duration of the ownership of the policies moved from non-taxable income to taxable income, resulting in a $3.6 million increase in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, other than temporary differences originating in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 were the non-taxable cancellation of the split-dollar life insurance agreement and the non-deductible additional tax related to the surrender of the bank-owned life insurance policies, which together resulted in an income tax benefit of approximately $0.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations when they come due. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and FHLB borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We have substantial cash requirements going forward, as discussed below, which we plan to fund through our total available liquidity, cash flows from operations and additional liquidity measures, if determined to be necessary.

We regularly review the need to adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of: (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest earning deposits and securities and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Excess liquid assets are generally invested in interest-earning deposits and short-term securities.

Our most liquid assets are cash and due from banks, interest-bearing time deposits with other banks and debt securities classified as available for sale. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash and due from banks totaled $285.2 million and $411.7 million, respectively; interest-bearing time deposits with other banks totaled $1.2 million; debt securities available for sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $377.5 million and $308.7 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, outstanding FHLB borrowings totaled $50.0 million and $150.0 million, respectively. In May 2022, the Bank utilized its excess liquidity to repay $100.0 million in long-term fixed rate advances which the FHLB had called using the call provision. There were no amounts outstanding on lines of credit with other banks.

At June 30, 2022, we had the ability to borrow an additional $409.3 million from the FHLB, which included an available line of credit of $20 million. In addition, we obtained standby letters of credit totaling $9.5 million, which provides credit support for certain of our obligations related to our commitment to repurchase certain pools of Advantage Loan Program loans. We also had available credit lines with other banks totaling $80 million.

Although we substantially reduced our excess liquidity during 2021 through 2022, we believe that our existing liquidity combined with our borrowing capacity with the FHLB and our bank lines of credit, as well as the ability to obtain additional funds through brokered deposits, would allow us to manage any unexpected increase in loan demand or any unforeseen financial demand or commitment.

To avoid the uncertainty of audits and inquiries by third-party investors in the Advantage Loan Program loans, beginning at the end of the second quarter of 2020, the Company commenced making offers to each of those investors to repurchase 100% of the previously sold Advantage Loan Program loans. Through June 30, 2022, the Company has repurchased pools of Advantage Loan Program loans previously sold with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $273.8 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Bank repurchased $30.4 million of Advantage Loan Program loans, for which the Bank was not previously subject to an agreement to repurchase. In addition, pursuant to existing agreements with such investors, the Company also agreed to repurchase additional pools through July 2023. The aggregate unpaid principal balance of the loans in these pools was $60.8 million at June 30, 2022. Should additional secondary market investors accept our offers to repurchase Advantage Loan Program loans with respect to a substantial portion of such outstanding loans, the cash required to fund these repurchases will reduce our liquidity. At June 30, 2022, the unpaid principal balance of the previously sold Advantage Loan Program loans that would be subject to repurchase by us if 100% of our offers were accepted totaled $89.6 million, which includes loans that we have committed to repurchase.

We are a party to financial instruments in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit that are not reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. At June 30, 2022, we had $30.1 million in loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding and $24 thousand in standby letters of credit. At December 31, 2021, we had $69.4 million in loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding and $24 thousand in standby letters of credit.

As of June 30, 2022, time deposits due within one year were $485.2 million, or 24% of total deposits. Total time deposits at June 30, 2022 were $669.6 million, or 33% of total deposits. As of December 31, 2021, time deposits due within one year were $646.6 million, or 29% of total deposits. Total time deposits at December 31, 2021 were $891.8 million, or 39% of total deposits.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and to a lesser extent, the purchase of investment securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we originated $85.5 million of loans and purchased $108.3 million of investment securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we originated $92.6 million of loans and did not purchase any investment securities. Cash flows provided by loan payoffs totaled $324.3 million and $429.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts. We experienced a net decrease in total deposits of $257.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $2.3 billion at December 31, 2021. We generate deposits from local businesses and individuals through customer referrals and other relationships and through our retail presence. We utilize borrowings and brokered deposits to supplement funding needs and manage our liquidity position.

The Company is a separate and distinct legal entity from the Bank, and, on a parent company-only basis, the Company’s primary source of funding is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the dividends that may be paid by the Bank. Approval by regulatory authorities is required if the total capital distributions for the applicable calendar year exceed the sum of the Bank’s net income for that year to date plus the Bank’s retained net income for the preceding two years, or the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the distribution. Banking regulations also limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends under other circumstances, including if the Bank is subject to a formal agreement with the OCC or other supervisory enforcement action. At June 30, 2022, the Bank is required to obtain the prior approval of the OCC in order to pay any dividends to the Company due to the existence of the OCC Agreement. The Company has the legal ability to access the debt and equity capital markets for funding, although the Company currently is required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB in order to issue debt.

In recent years, the Company’s primary funding needs on a parent company-only basis have consisted of dividends to shareholders, interest expense on subordinated notes and stock repurchases. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $65.0 million in principal amount of subordinated notes outstanding that are due April 15, 2026 but may be redeemed by us, in whole or in part, on or after April 14, 2021. There have been no redemptions on the subordinated notes. Interest expense on the subordinated notes was $2.1 million and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The subordinated notes had an interest rate of 7% per annum, payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 in arrears, through April 2021, after which the subordinated notes converted to a variable interest rate of the three-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 5.82% (6.86% at June 30, 2022). In 2017, the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) Financial Conduct Authority announced that it would no longer compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021, and the administrator of LIBOR has proposed to extend publication of the most commonly used U.S. dollar LIBOR settings to June 30, 2023. Pursuant to recent federal and New York State legislation, upon the cessation of the publication of the three-month LIBOR rate, the subordinated notes will bear interest at a rate based on the SOFR.

The Company’s ability to pay cash dividends is restricted by the terms of the subordinated notes as well as applicable provisions of Michigan law and the rules and regulations of the OCC and the FRB. Under the terms of the subordinated notes, as long as the subordinated notes are outstanding, the Company is permitted to pay dividends, if prior to such dividends, the Bank is considered well capitalized under applicable regulatory capital requirements. In addition, under Michigan law, the Company is prohibited from paying cash dividends if, after giving effect to the dividend, (i) it would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) its total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders with preferential rights on dissolution that are superior to those receiving the dividend, and we are currently required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB in order to pay any dividends to our shareholders.

The Company and the Bank are required to meet several regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve and the OCC, respectively. We manage our capital to comply with our internal planning targets and regulatory capital standards administered by the Federal Reserve and the OCC. We review capital levels on a quarterly basis including our needs for additional capital and ability to pay cash dividends.

These capital requirements are the result of a final rule implementing recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. In addition to establishing the minimum regulatory capital requirements, the regulations have established a CCB consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. The CCB is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a (i) CET1 to risk-weighted assets, (ii) Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets or (iii) total capital to risk-weighted assets above the respective minimum but below the minimum plus the CCB will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers based on the amount of the shortfall.

The Bank, after consultation with the OCC, determined that a risk-weighting of 100% should be applied to its Advantage Loan Program loans under the risk weighting requirements for first-lien residential mortgage exposures set forth under the Basel III capital rules. Previously, the Company and the Bank generally applied a 50% risk weight to the Advantage Loan Program loans. The table below presents the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital amounts and ratios applying the 100% risk weight as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 for the Company’s and Bank’s total adjusted capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 (core) capital to risk-weighted assets and CET1 to risk weighted assets.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company and the Bank had met all regulatory capital requirements to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios exceeded the requirements to be considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The following tables present the Company’s consolidated and the Bank’s actual and minimum required capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans:

In order to provide a comparable trend analysis for the Bank’s and the Company’s risk based capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans, the tables below present the regulatory capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight at December 31 for each of the past five years. At each of the year-end dates reported, the Company and the Bank had met all minimum regulatory capital requirements and applicable capital cushions to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank would have been considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The CCB requirement was phased in beginning on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and increased by 0.625% on each subsequent January 1, until the buffer was implemented in full at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the CCB at December 31, 2018 was 1.875% and the CCB at December 31, 2017 was 1.25%.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

See Note 2–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements” for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance and related impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

General. The principal objective of our asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk within the balance sheet and pursue a controlled assumption of interest rate risk while maximizing net income and preserving adequate levels of liquidity and capital. The Asset Liability Committee of our board of directors (“ALCO”) has oversight of our asset and liability management function, which is implemented and managed by our Management Asset Liability Committee. Our Management Asset Liability Committee meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to product offering rate changes, local and national market conditions and market interest rates. That group also reviews our liquidity, capital, deposit mix, loan mix and investment positions.

We manage our exposure to interest rates primarily by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. Our management of interest rate risk is overseen by our board of directors ALCO, and implemented by our management ALCO based on a risk management infrastructure approved by our board of directors that outlines reporting and measurement requirements. In particular, this infrastructure sets limits, calculated quarterly, for various interest rate-related metrics, our economic value of equity (“EVE”) and net interest income simulations involving parallel shifts in interest rate curves. Steepening and flattening yield curves and various prepayment and deposit duration assumptions are prepared at least annually. Our interest rate management policies also require periodic review and documentation of all key assumptions used, such as identifying appropriate interest rate scenarios, setting loan prepayment rates and deposit durations based on historical analysis.

We do not typically enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of managing interest rate risk, but we may do so in the future. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

Net Interest Income Simulation. We use an interest rate risk simulation model to test the interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and the balance sheet. Instantaneous parallel rate shift scenarios are modeled and utilized to evaluate risk and establish exposure limits for acceptable changes in net interest income. These scenarios, known as rate shocks, simulate an instantaneous

59

change in interest rates and use various assumptions, including, but not limited to, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, and reinvestment and replacement of asset and liability cash flows.

The following table presents the estimated changes in net interest income of the Bank, calculated on a bank-only basis, which would result from changes in market interest rates over a 12-month period beginning June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The table below demonstrates that we are asset sensitive at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with the asset sensitivity of our balance sheet slightly decreasing from December 31, 2021 and significantly decreasing from March 31, 2022, reflecting changes to the balance sheet mix as cash balances declined and adjustable rate loans resetting in the next twelve months decreased due to payoffs.

0		93,157				84,214
–100		87,975	(6)	%		79,552	(6)	%

Economic Value of Equity Simulation. We also analyze our sensitivity to changes in interest rates through an EVE model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology. We estimate what our EVE would be as of a specific date. We then calculate what EVE would be as of the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate EVE under the assumptions that interest rates increase 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates, and under the assumption that interest rates decrease 100 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the impacts of immediate and permanent parallel hypothetical changes in market interest rates on EVE of the Bank, calculated on a bank-only basis. The sensitivity of our balance sheet increased from December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022 in the up-rate scenarios primarily as a result of yield curve effects on our deposit liabilities’ fair value as well as overall changes in the balance sheet mix to longer-duration assets. Since EVE is a long-term measurement of value, the change in EVE is not indicative of the short term (12-months) effects on earnings

As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing tables. Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations. Actual results may be significantly different than our projections due to several factors, including the timing and frequency of rate changes, market conditions and the shape of the yield curve. The computations of interest rate risk shown above do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates, and actual results may also differ due to any actions taken in response to the changing rates. Accordingly, the data presented in the tables in this section should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results in the event of changes in interest rates and the resulting EVE and net interest income estimates are not intended to represent and should not be construed to represent our estimate of the underlying EVE or forecast of net interest income.

60

Furthermore, the EVE presented in the foregoing table is not intended to present the fair market value of the Company, nor does it represent amounts that would be available for distribution to shareholders in the event of the liquidation of the Company.

In 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it would no longer compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The administrator of LIBOR has proposed to extend publication of the most commonly used U.S. dollar LIBOR settings to June 30, 2023 and to cease publishing other LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021. We have significant exposure to financial instruments with attributes that are either directly or indirectly dependent on LIBOR to establish their interest rate and/or value, the majority of which mature after December 31, 2021. Based on our transition progress to date, we have ceased originating LIBOR-based products since March 8, 2021 and began originating U.S. Treasury rate based loans after March 8, 2021. Our adjustable-rate loan products have an index-based reset feature which will continue. Pursuant to recent federal and New York State legislation, we have determined that our LIBOR-based loans and outstanding subordinated notes will convert to SOFR-based rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of the CEO and the CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2022. Based on these evaluations, the CEO and the CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is required to evaluate, with the participation of our CEO and our CFO, any changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during each fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not aware of any material developments to our pending legal proceedings as disclosed in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, nor are we involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. We believe that such routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are immaterial to our financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as described below, there are no material changes from the risk factors as disclosed in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

As a business operating in the financial services industry, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected in numerous and complex ways by weak economic conditions and fiscal and monetary policies and regulations of the federal government and the FRB.

Our business and operations, which primarily consist of lending money to customers in the form of loans, borrowing money from customers in the form of deposits and investing in securities, are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. If the U.S. economy weakens, our growth and profitability from our lending, deposit and investment operations could be constrained. Uncertainty about the federal fiscal policymaking process, the medium- and long-term fiscal outlook of the federal government and future tax rates is a concern for businesses, consumers and investors in the United States. In addition, economic conditions in foreign countries could affect the stability of global financial markets, which could hinder U.S. economic growth. Weak economic conditions are characterized by deflation or elevated inflation, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets, a lack of liquidity and/or depressed or inflated prices in the secondary market for mortgage loans, increased delinquencies on mortgage, consumer and commercial loans, residential and commercial real estate price declines and lower home sales and commercial activity. The current economic environment is also characterized by interest rates at historically low levels, which impacts our ability to attract deposits and to generate attractive net income through our investment portfolio, as well as elevated inflation, supply chain disruptions, a sensitive and evolving labor market and market volatility resulting from the recent military invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces, including the economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other nations on Russia, Belarus and certain Russian organizations and individuals. All of these factors are detrimental to our business, and the interplay between these factors can be complex and unpredictable. Our business is also significantly affected by monetary and related policies of the U.S. federal government and its agencies. Changes in any of these policies are influenced by macroeconomic conditions and other factors that are beyond our control. Adverse economic conditions and government policy responses to such conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Notably, our net income and growth are affected by the policies of the FRB. An important function of the FRB is to regulate the money supply and credit conditions. Among the instruments used by the FRB to implement these objectives are open market purchases and sales of U.S. government securities, adjustments of the federal discount rate and changes in banks’ reserve requirements against bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall economic growth and the distribution of credit, bank loans, investments and deposits. Their use also affects interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits. The monetary policies and regulations of the FRB have had a significant effect on the operating results of banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. The FRB has announced it will be reducing the pace of its open market purchases as well as monitoring interest rates in light of elevated inflation, labor market conditions and public health considerations, among other things. The effects of such policies upon our business, financial condition and results of operations cannot be predicted.

In addition, the tightening of the FRB’s monetary policies, including repeated, aggressive increases in the target range for the federal funds rate and the conclusion of the FRB’s tapering of asset purchases, together with ongoing economic and geopolitical instability, increases the risk of an economic recession. Although forecasts have varied, many economists are projecting that U.S. economic growth will slow and inflation will remain elevated in the coming quarters, potentially resulting in a contraction of U.S. gross domestic output by 2023 if not earlier. Any such economic downturn may adversely affect our asset quality, deposit levels, loan demand and results of operations.

As a result of the economic and geopolitical factors discussed above, financial institutions also face heightened credit risk, among other forms of risk. Of note, because we have a significant amount of real estate loans, decreases in real estate values could adversely affect the value of property used as collateral, which, in turn, can adversely affect the value of our loan and investment portfolios. The OCC recently reported that although residential real estate values have continued to rise in many markets, the rate of appreciation has slowed in recent quarters. Adverse economic developments, specifically including inflation-related impacts, may have a negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans or to finance future home purchases. Moreover, while commercial real estate values have stabilized as demand has returned to pre-pandemic levels in several markets, the outlook for commercial real estate remains dependent on the broader economic environment and, specifically, how major subsectors respond to a rising interest rate environment and higher prices for commodities, goods and services. In each case, credit performance over the medium- and long-term is susceptible to economic and market forces and therefore forecasts remain uncertain. Instability and uncertainty in the commercial and residential real estate markets, as well as in the broader commercial and retail credit markets, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Increasing interest rates could reduce our net interest income and otherwise negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Since March of 2022, the FOMC has raised the target range for the federal funds rate on three separate occasions, resulting in an increase in the target range from 0.00% - 0.25% that prevailed in early March of 2022 to 1.50% - 1.75% at the June 2022 FOMC meeting. At the July 2022 FOMC meeting, the target rate was increased again to 2.25% - 2.50%. The FOMC—citing specifically the hardships caused by the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, continued global supply chain disruptions and imbalances, and increased inflationary pressure—has signaled that it anticipates additional increases in the target range will be appropriate. Increases to prevailing interest rates could influence not only the interest we receive on loans and investments and the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, but such changes could also affect (i) our ability to originate loans and obtain deposits; (ii) the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities; and (iii) the average duration of our mortgage portfolio and other interest-earning assets. In particular, accelerated interest rate increases may cause our liabilities to reprice to market rates much faster and more extensively than our assets. Such changes may adversely affect our net interest income, net interest spread and net interest margin, and may cause us to change our operating leverage model or portfolio mix to compensate.

We have operational risk associated with third-party vendors and other financial institutions.

We rely upon certain third-party vendors to provide products and services necessary to maintain our day-to-day operations, including, notably, MortgagePath, to whom we have outsourced our residential loan origination function. Accordingly, our operations are exposed to the risk that these vendors might not perform in accordance with applicable contractual arrangements or service level agreements. The failure of an external vendor to perform in accordance with applicable contractual arrangements or service level agreements could be disruptive to our operations and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations and/or damage our reputation. Further, third-party vendor risk management continues to be a point of regulatory emphasis. A failure to follow applicable regulatory guidance in this area could expose us to regulatory sanctions.

The commercial soundness of many financial institutions may be closely interrelated as a result of credit, trading, execution of transactions or other relationships between the institutions. As a result, concerns about, or a default or threatened default by, one institution could lead to significant market-wide liquidity and credit problems, losses or defaults by other institutions. This risk is sometimes referred to as “systemic risk” and may adversely affect financial intermediaries, such as clearing agencies, clearing houses, banks, securities firms and exchanges with which we interact on a daily basis, and, therefore, could adversely affect us.

Any of these operational or other risks could result in our diminished ability to operate one or more of our businesses, financial loss, potential liability to customers, inability to secure insurance, reputational damage and regulatory intervention and could materially adversely affect us.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to these periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2022 or for any future annual or interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.

Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in the future periods may be based upon amounts that could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The loan portfolio consists primarily of residential real estate loans, which are collateralized by real estate. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, residential real estate loans accounted for 85% and 83%, respectively, of total gross loans. In addition, most of these residential loans and other commercial loans have been made to individuals and businesses in the state of California, which are dependent on the area economy for their livelihoods and servicing of their loan obligation. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately 84% and 85%, respectively, of gross loans was originated with respect to properties or businesses located in the state of California.

In March 2020, the Bank permanently discontinued its Advantage Loan program. Loans originated under this program comprised a significant component of the Bank’s total loan originations. Advantage Loan Program loans (including residential real estate loans held for sale of $7,313 and $11,359 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, of which $3,999 and $8,671 were on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively) totaled $992,477 and $1,185,458, or 66% and 69% of gross residential loans, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in ASC 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings involving borrowings that are experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, creditors will evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Also, losses associated with troubled debt restructurings should be incorporated in a creditor’s estimate of its allowance for credit losses. Public business entities are required to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for loan financing receivables and net investment in leases. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“2016-13”), ASU 2022-02 is effective when the entity adopts the guidance in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU, along with its adoption of ASU 2016-13, as discussed below.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, which is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments on a more timely basis. The guidance will replace the current incurred loss accounting model with an expected loss approach and requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which clarifies the scope of the credit losses standard and addresses issues related to accrued interest receivable balances and recoveries, among other things. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. The amendments provide entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis, upon adoption of Topic 326. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates. This update deferred the effective dates of Topic 326 to January 1, 2023 for certain entities including smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC. The Company, as a smaller reporting company as of the relevant measuring period, qualified for this extension.

At this time, a cross-functional implementation team consisting of individuals from accounting, finance, servicing and information systems is working with the Bank’s loan system vendor and consultants, and an application to create credit loss estimation models and processes has been developed. The historical data set for model development has been finalized, and the credit loss estimation models have been developed and tested. Once the credit loss estimation models have been finalized, the Bank will run the new credit loss estimation models in parallel with the current allowance for loan losses model to understand the differences in the models and assess the impact of the change. The Company expects to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023, the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU No. 2016-13 is effective. The Company has not yet determined the magnitude of any such one-time cumulative adjustment or of the overall impact of ASU No. 2016-13 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Securities with a fair value of $118,773 were pledged as collateral on FHLB borrowings at June 30, 2022.

All of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities, and a majority of the Company’s collateralized mortgage obligations are issued and/or guaranteed by a U.S. government agency (Government National Mortgage Association) or a U.S. government-sponsored enterprise (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) or Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”)). The fair value of the private-label collateralized mortgage obligations was $457 and $529 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

No securities of any single issuer, other than debt securities issued by the U.S. government, government agency and government-sponsored enterprises, were in excess of 10% of total shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The amortized cost and fair value of U.S. Treasury and Agency securities at June 30, 2022 are shown by contractual maturity in the table below. Mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and collateralized debt obligations are disclosed separately, as the expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities if borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Total	$	144,097	$	(1,607)	$	11,345	$	(359)	$	155,442	$	(1,966)

As of June 30, 2022, the debt securities portfolio consisted of 33 debt securities, with 27 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. For debt securities in an unrealized loss position, management has both the intent and ability to hold these investments until the recovery of the decline. The fair value is expected to increase as these securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, the unrealized losses in these securities are due to non-credit-related factors, including changes in interest rates and other market conditions; thus, the impairment was determined to be temporary. All interest and dividends are considered taxable.

Equity Securities

Equity securities consist of an investment in a qualified community reinvestment act investment fund, which is a publicly-traded mutual fund and an investment in the common equity of Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank, a thinly traded restricted stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities totaled $4,817 and $5,222, respectively, and are included in investment securities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are stated at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported in income. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities with readily determinable fair values were $4,571 and $4,976, respectively. The following is a summary of unrealized and realized gains and losses recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net gains (losses) recorded during the period on equity securities	$	(170)	$	15	$	(406)	$	(75)
Less: net gains (losses) recorded during the period on equity securities sold during the period		—		—		—		—
Unrealized gains (losses) recorded during the period on equity securities held at the reporting date	$	(170)	$	15	$	(406)	$	(75)

The Company has elected to account for its investment in a thinly traded restricted stock using the measurement alternative for equity securities without readily determinable fair values, resulting in the investment carried at cost based on no evidence of impairment or observable trading activity during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The investment was reported at $246 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

In the tables above, the unpaid principal balance is not reduced for partial charge offs. Also, the recorded investment excludes accrued interest receivable on loans, which was not significant.

Also presented in the table above is the average recorded investment of the impaired loans and the related amount of interest recognized during the time within the period that the impaired loans were impaired. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, contractual interest is credited to interest income when received under the cash basis method. The average balances are calculated based on the month-end balances of the loans for the period reported.

The following table presents the recorded investment in nonaccrual and loans past due over 90 days still on accrual, excluding nonaccrual loans held for sale, by class of loans as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The Company considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for loan losses. For residential real estate and other consumer loans, the Company also evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which is presented above, and by payment activity. The Company reviews the status of nonperforming loans, which include loans 90 days past due and still accruing, and nonaccrual loans.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has a recorded investment in troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) of $8,427 and $18,416, respectively. The Company has not allocated a specific allowance for loan losses for these loans at of June 30, 2022 and has $39 of specific allowance for loan loss for these loans at of December 31, 2021. There are no commitments to lend additional amounts.

There were no loans modified as TDRs during the three or six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

There were no TDRs for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three or six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. At June 30, 2022, there was one loan totaling $5,781 in default. At December 31, 2021, five loans totaling $15,752 were in default.

The terms of certain other loans have been modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 that did not meet the definition of a TDR. These other loans that were modified were not considered significant.

Foreclosure Proceedings

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the recorded investment of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totaled $11,315 and $2,780, respectively. Of the loans in formal foreclosure proceedings, $2,755 and $2,770 were included in loans held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and were carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. The balance of loans are classified as held for investment and receive an allocation of the allowance for loan losses consistent with a substandard loan loss allocation rate as these loans were classified as substandard at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Credit Quality

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and other consumer loans, and non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial lines of credit, construction and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed at least quarterly. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass: Loans are of satisfactory quality.

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

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

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

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the risk rating of loans by class of loans was as follows:

Note 5—Mortgage Servicing Rights, net

The Bank records servicing assets from the sale of residential real estate mortgage loans to the secondary market for which servicing has been retained. Residential real estate mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The principal balance of these loans at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021

Private investors		89,648		142,810
Total	$	243,884	$	307,783

Custodial escrow balances maintained with these serviced loans were $693 and $5,501 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These balances are included in noninterest-bearing deposits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Activity for mortgage servicing rights and the related valuation allowance are as follows:

Servicing fee income (loss), net of amortization of servicing rights and changes in the valuation allowance, was $(177) and $(908) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $266 and $(1,338) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was $2,899 and $2,916 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is highly sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions. Changes in prepayment speed assumptions have the most significant impact on the estimate of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights. The fair value at June 30, 2022 was determined using discount rates ranging from 9.5% to 12.0%, prepayment speeds with a weighted average of 11.9% (depending on the stratification of the specific right), a weighted average life of the mortgage servicing right of 73 months and a weighted average default rate of 0.2%. The fair value at December 31, 2021 was determined using discount rates ranging from 9.5% to 12.0%, prepayment speeds with a weighted average of 17.6% (depending on the stratification of the specific right), a weighted average life of the mortgage servicing right of 52 months and a weighted average default rate of 0.2%.

Impairment is determined by stratifying the mortgage servicing rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of certain individual groupings exceeded their fair values, resulting in write-downs to fair value. Refer to Note 14—Fair Values of Financial Instruments.

Note 7—FHLB Borrowings

FHLB Advances

FHLB borrowings at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consist of the following:

	June 30,				December 31,
	2022		Interest Rates		2021		Interest Rates
Long-term fixed rate advances	$	50,000	1.96	%	$	150,000	0.43% - 1.96	%

At June 30, 2022, the Company has long-term fixed-rate advances of $50,000 with a maturity date of May 2029. The advances require monthly interest-only payments with the principal amount due on the maturity date and may contain a prepayment penalty if paid before maturity. The advances may be callable by the FHLB in May 2024. In May of 2022, the Bank utilized its excess liquidity to repay $100,000 in long-term fixed rate advances which the FHLB had called using the call provision. At June 30, 2022, the Bank had additional borrowing capacity of $389,260 from the FHLB.

FHLB Overdraft Line of Credit and Letters of Credit

The Bank has established a short-term overdraft line of credit agreement with the FHLB, which provides for maximum borrowings of $20,000. The overdraft line of credit was not used during the six months ended June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under this agreement. Borrowings accrue interest based on a variable rate based on the FHLB’s overnight cost of funds rate, which was 1.90% and 0.43% at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The agreement has a one-year term and terminates in October 2022.

In 2021, the Bank entered into irrevocable standby letters of credit arrangements with the FHLB totaling $11,500 to provide credit support for certain of its obligations related to its commitment to repurchase certain pools of Advantage Loan Program loans. An irrevocable standby letter of credit of $7,500 has a 16-month term and expires in July 2022. An irrevocable standby letter of credit originally of $4,000 has a 36-month term and expires in July 2024. This letter was reduced to $2,000 during the second quarter of 2022; thereby, the Bank has total available letters of credit of $9,500 and $11,500 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were no borrowings outstanding on these standby letters of credit during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The long-term fixed-rate advances and the overdraft line of credit are collateralized by certain investment securities and loans. Refer to Note 3—Investment Securities for further information on securities pledged as collateral and Note 4—Loans for further information on loans pledged as collateral.

Other Borrowings

The Bank had available unsecured credit lines with other banks totaling $80,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There were no borrowings under these unsecured credit lines during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Stock-based Compensation

Note 10—Stock-based Compensation

The board of directors established the 2020 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which was approved by the shareholders in December 2020. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of up to 3,979,661 shares of common stock for stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units and performance shares for issuance to employees, consultants and the board of directors of the Company. The stock-based awards are issued at no less than the market price on the date the awards are granted.

Previously, the board of directors had established a 2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) which was approved by the shareholders. The 2017 Plan initially provided for the grant of up to 4,237,100 shares of common stock for stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards for issuance to employees, consultants and the board of directors of the Company. The stock-based awards were issued at no less than the market price on the date the awards were granted. Due to the adoption of the 2020 Plan, no further grants will be issued under the 2017 Plan.

Stock Options

Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Beginning with grants in 2020, stock option awards vest ratably over three years (one-third per year) after the date of grant, while stock option awards granted prior to 2020 generally vest in installments of 50% in each of the third and fourth year after the date of grant. All stock option awards have a maximum term of ten years. No stock option awards were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is as follows:

				Weighted
		Weighted		Average
		Average		Remaining	Aggregate
	Number	Exercise		Contractual	Intrinsic

Exercisable at June 30, 2022	344,506	$	5.14	7.69	$	510

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $2 and $46 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $(11) and $103 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was $6 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of less than one year.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards are issued to independent directors and certain key employees. The restricted stock awards generally vest ratably over three years (one-third per year) after the date of grant. The value of a restricted stock award is based on the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant reduced by the present value of dividends per share expected to be paid during the period the shares are not vested. Upon a change in control, as defined in the 2017 Plan and the 2020 Plan, the outstanding restricted stock awards will immediately vest.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the board of directors approved the issuance of 230,427 shares of restricted stock, of which 45,000 shares were awarded to independent directors and 185,427 shares were awarded to key employees. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the board of directors approved the issuance of 227,702 shares of restricted stock, of which 45,000 shares were awarded to independent directors and 182,702 shares were awarded to key employees.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company withheld 29,728 shares and 8,536 shares, respectively, of common stock representing a portion of the restricted stock awards that vested during the period in order to satisfy certain related employee tax withholding liabilities of $196 and $46, respectively, associated with vesting. These withheld shares are treated the same as repurchased shares for accounting purposes.

A summary of the restricted stock awards activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is as follows:

		Weighted Average
	Number	Grant Date
	of Shares	Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1, 2022	293,637	$	5.81
Granted	230,427		6.57
Vested	(101,342)		6.23
Forfeited	(4,397)		6.94
Nonvested at June 30, 2022	418,325	$	6.12

The fair value of the award is recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense associated with restricted stock awards of $237 and $147 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $396 and $195 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was $2,183 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested stock granted which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.36 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $655 and $173, respectively.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

Regulatory Capital Requirements

Note 11—Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Bank is subject to the capital adequacy requirements of the OCC. The Company, as a thrift holding company, is subject to the capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications for depository institutions like the Bank, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators, in their discretion, can require the Company to lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank, after consultation with the OCC, determined that a risk-weighting of 100% should be applied to its Advantage Loan Program loans under the risk weighting requirements for first-lien residential mortgage exposures set forth under the Basel III capital rules. Previously, the Company and the Bank generally applied a 50% risk weight to the Advantage Loan Program loans. The table below presents the Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital amounts and ratios applying the 100% risk weight as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 for the Company’s and Bank’s total adjusted capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 (core) capital to risk-weighted assets and CET1 to risk weighted assets.

Under the Basel III capital rules, both the Company and the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer (“CCB”) consisting of at least 2.5% above the minimum risk-based capital ratios, or 7.0% for common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio, 8.5% for Tier 1 capital ratio and 10.5% for total capital ratio, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers and similar employees.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company and the Bank had met all regulatory capital requirements to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios exceeded the requirements to be considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The following tables present the Company’s consolidated and the Bank’s actual and minimum required capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans:

In order to provide a comparable trend analysis for the Bank’s and the Company’s risk based capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight to Advantage Loan Program loans, the tables below present the regulatory capital ratios applying the 100% risk weight at December 31 for each of the past five years. At each of the year-end dates reported, the Company and the Bank had met all minimum regulatory capital requirements and applicable capital cushions to which they are subject and held capital in excess of the CCB, and the Bank would have been considered well capitalized for all regulatory purposes. The CCB requirement was phased in beginning on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and increased by 0.625% on each subsequent January 1, until the buffer was implemented in full at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the CCB at December 31, 2018 was 1.875% and the CCB at December 31, 2017 was 1.25%.

Dividend Restrictions

As noted above, banking regulations require the Bank to maintain certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by the holding company to its shareholders. The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank, and banking regulations limit the dividends that may be paid. Approval by regulatory authorities is required if (i) the total capital distributions for the applicable calendar year exceed the sum of the Bank’s net income for that year to date plus the Bank’s retained net income for the preceding two years or (ii) the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the distribution.

The Qualified Thrift Lender (“QTL”) test requires that a minimum of 65% of assets be maintained in qualified thrift investments, including mortgage loans, housing- and real estate-related finance and other specified areas. If the QTL test is not met, limits are placed on growth, branching, new investments, FHLB advances and dividends, or the Bank must convert to a commercial bank charter. Management believes that the QTL test has been met. Also, pursuant to the terms of the subordinated note agreements, the Company may pay dividends if it is well capitalized as defined by regulatory guidelines.

The Bank is currently required to obtain the prior approval of the OCC in order to pay dividends to the Company due to the existence of a formal agreement with the OCC. Refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies. In addition, the Company currently is required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB in order to pay dividends to the Company’s shareholders.

Income (Loss) Per Share

Note 12—Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share further includes any common shares available to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards if such inclusions would be dilutive. In periods of a net loss, basic and diluted share information are the same. The Company determines the potentially dilutive common shares using the treasury stock method. The following table presents the computation of income (loss) per share, basic and diluted:

Note 13—Employee Benefit Plans

In May 2022, the Bank surrendered a large split-dollar life program and a few smaller bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) policies related to former executives and a controlling shareholder with a cash surrender value of $24.9 million. The $13.1 million increase in value over the duration of the ownership of the policies has moved from non-taxable income to taxable income, resulting in a $3.6 million increase in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additional taxes of $1.3 million relating to this surrender are included in other expense within non-interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

In connection with the surrender, the Bank also cancelled certain deferred compensation and the split dollar life insurance agreement with its controlling shareholder which resulted in the reversal of the related liabilities of $4.5 million which are included as a reduction in salaries and employee benefits expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Note 14—Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments include assets carried at fair value, as well as certain assets and liabilities carried at cost or amortized cost but disclosed at fair value in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Fair value is defined as the exit price, the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date under current market conditions. The inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value are prioritized into a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

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

The following methods and significant assumptions are used to estimate fair value:

Investment Securities

The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar investment securities (Level 2). For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar investment securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to LIBOR curves that are updated to incorporate loss severities, volatility, credit spread and optionality. During times when trading is more liquid, broker quotes are used (if available) to validate the analysis. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as defaults and deferrals on individual investment securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Fair value is determined based on outstanding commitments from investors or quoted prices for loans with similar characteristics (Level 2).

Impaired Loans

The fair value of collateral-dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach, such as comparable sales or the income approach, or a combination of both. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are performed by certified general appraisers whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by management. Once received, an appraisal compliance review is completed in accordance with regulatory guidelines.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is initially determined at the individual grouping level based on an internal valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. On a quarterly basis, mortgage servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon third-party valuations obtained. As disclosed in Note 5—Mortgage Servicing Rights, net, the valuation model utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income (Level 3).

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The table below presents the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized by the level of inputs used in the valuation of each asset at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The fair value of the collateralized debt obligations is obtained from third-party pricing information. It is determined by calculating discounted cash flows using LIBOR curves plus spreads that adjust for credit risk and illiquidity. The Company also performs an internal analysis that considers the structure and term of the collateralized debt obligations and the financial condition of the underlying issuers to corroborate the information used from the independent third party.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

From time to time, the Bank may be required to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the related carrying value:

As discussed above, the fair values of collateral-dependent impaired loans carried at fair value are determined by third-party appraisals. Management adjusts these appraised values based on the age of the appraisal and the type of the property. The following tables present quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Unfunded Commitments to Extend Credit

A commitment to extend credit, such as a loan commitment, credit line and overdraft protection, is a legally binding agreement to lend funds to a customer, usually at a stated interest rate and for a specific purpose. Such commitments have fixed expiration dates and generally require a fee. The extension of a commitment gives rise to credit risk. The actual liquidity requirements or credit risk that the Bank will experience is expected to be lower than the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit because a significant portion of those commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Certain commitments are subject to loan agreements containing covenants regarding the financial performance of the customer that must be met before the Bank is required to fund the commitment. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does in making loans.

The commitments outstanding to make loans include primarily residential real estate loans that are made for a period of 90 days or less. At June 30, 2022, outstanding commitments to make loans consisted of variable rate loans of $2,802 at varying interest rates ranging from 3.125% to 4.375% at June 30, 2022 with maturities of 30 years.

Unused Lines of Credit

The Bank also issues unused lines of credit to meet customer financing needs. At June 30, 2022, the unused lines of credit include residential second mortgages of $10,618 and construction loans of $16,682 totaling $27,300. These unused lines of credit are associated with variable rate commitments at interest rates ranging from 4.0% to 6.95% with maturities ranging from one month to 23 years.

Standby Letters of Credit

Standby letters of credit are issued on behalf of customers in connection with construction contracts between the customers and third parties. Under standby letters of credit, the Bank assures that the third parties will receive specified funds if customers fail to meet their contractual obligations. The credit risk to the Bank arises from its obligation to make payment in the event of a customer’s contractual default. The maximum amount of potential future payments guaranteed by the Bank is limited to the contractual amount of these letters. Collateral may be obtained at exercise of the commitment. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

The following is a summary of the total amount of unfunded commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021
Commitments to make loans	$	2,802	$	23,610
Unused lines of credit		27,300		45,805

Legal Proceedings

The Company and its subsidiaries may be subject to legal actions and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings, except as described below, that are considered other than routine legal proceedings. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition or resolution of its routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are immaterial to its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The Bank is currently under formal investigation by the OCC generally relating to its former residential loan product marketed as the Advantage Loan Program and related matters (the “OCC Investigation”) and continues to be subject to a publicly available formal agreement with the OCC, dated June 18, 2019 (the “OCC Agreement”), relating primarily to certain aspects of its Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”) compliance program as well as the Bank’s credit administration. The OCC Agreement generally requires that the Bank enhance its policies and procedures to ensure compliance with BSA/AML laws and regulations and ensure effective controls over residential loan underwriting.

The Bank is fully cooperating with the OCC Investigation and has implemented the items necessary to achieve compliance with the obligations in the OCC Agreement. A finding by the OCC that the Bank failed to comply with the OCC Agreement or adverse findings in the OCC Investigation could result in additional regulatory scrutiny, constraints on the Bank’s business, or other formal enforcement action, including the assessment of fines and penalties. Any of those events could have a material adverse effect on our future operations, financial condition, growth, or other aspects of our business.

The Bank also has received grand jury subpoenas from the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) beginning in 2020 requesting the production of documents and information in connection with an investigation that appears to be focused on the Bank’s Advantage Loan Program and related issues, including residential lending practices and public disclosures about that program contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC. The Bank is fully cooperating with this ongoing investigation. Adverse findings in the DOJ investigation could result in material losses due to damages, restitution, penalties, costs, and/or expenses imposed on the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations, financial condition, growth, or other aspects of the business.

The Company is currently under a formal investigation by the SEC. This investigation appears to be focused on accounting, financial reporting and disclosure matters, as well as the Company’s internal controls, related to the Advantage Loan Program. The Company has received document and information requests from the SEC and is fully cooperating with this investigation. Adverse findings in the SEC investigation could result in material losses due to penalties, disgorgement, costs and/or expenses imposed on the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations, financial condition, growth or other aspects of its business.

The Bank has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in its efforts to comply with the OCC Agreement and respond to the government investigations, which are reflected in the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Adverse findings in any of the aforementioned government investigations could also have collateral consequences for the Company and the Bank, such as creating breaches of representation in certain third-party agreements and loss of eligibility to participate in certain government programs and programs of government sponsored entities.

In 2019, the Company commenced an internal review of the Advantage Loan Program and related matters (the “Internal Review”). The primary focus of the Internal Review, which has been led by outside legal counsel at the direction of a special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”), has involved the origination of residential real estate loans under the Advantage Loan Program and related matters. Results from the Special Committee’s Internal Review have indicated that certain employees engaged in misconduct in connection with the origination of a significant number of such loans, including with respect to verification of income, the amount of income reported for borrowers, reliance on third parties, and related documentation. As a result, the Company permanently discontinued the Advantage Loan Program. While the Internal Review is substantially complete, the Company expects the Internal Review to remain open during the pendency of the government investigations discussed herein, and it is possible additional work will be required in connection with the Internal Review.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has a liability for contingent losses of $15,000 for the outcome of the pending investigations. There can be no assurance (i) that the Company will not incur material losses due to damages, penalties, costs and/or expenses as a result of such investigations, (ii) that the accrual for contingent losses will be sufficient to cover such losses, or (iii) that such losses will not materially exceed such accrual and have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

In addition, on July 28, 2020, the Company received a demand letter from two law firms representing a purported shareholder of the Company (the “Shareholder Demand”) alleging that members of the Company’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties of oversight and disclosure based on allegations concerning the Bank’s residential lending practices and disclosures concerning those practices that were made in the Company’s registration statement and prospectus for its initial public offering, in subsequent press releases, in periodic and other filings with the SEC and during earnings calls. The Shareholder Demand requested that the board of directors take action to (1) recover damages the Company has purportedly sustained as a result of alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by certain of its officers and directors; (2) recover for the benefit of the Company the amounts by which certain of its officers and directors purportedly were unjustly enriched; and (3) correct alleged deficiencies in the Company’s internal controls. Following receipt of the Shareholder Demand, the Company’s board of directors established a demand review committee consisting of independent directors, none of whom were named in the Shareholder Demand.

On January 21, 2022, the Company and the purported shareholder entered into an agreement in the form of a definitive stipulation of settlement (the “Settlement”). Pursuant to the Settlement, the Company agreed to adopt and implement substantial corporate governance reforms, many of which have been implemented, and pay attorneys’ fees and expenses in exchange for the release of all defendants from all alleged claims therein. The Settlement provides customary releases of certain individuals and entities, including the current board of directors and certain former board members, and reserves for the Company’s board of directors the exclusive right to continue to evaluate and pursue claims against non-released individuals based on their conduct concerning, related to, or arising from the matters raised in the Shareholder Demand. The Settlement remains subject to final court approval and other customary conditions. Reimbursement of the plaintiff attorneys’ fees and expenses of $650 due under the Settlement will be paid by the Company’s insurance carriers under applicable insurance policies. A loss recovery receivable of $650 was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021, in the amount of the liability for the total of the attorneys’ fees and expenses also recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021. On April 25, 2022, the court granted preliminary approval of the Settlement, and a final approval hearing is currently scheduled to be held before the court on September 29, 2022.

Mortgage Repurchase Liability

During the period 2015 through 2019, the Company sold portfolio loans originated under the Advantage Loan Program to private investors in the secondary market. The Company also sells conventional residential real estate loans (which excludes Advantage Loan Program loans) in the secondary market primarily to Fannie Mae on an ongoing basis. In connection with these loans sold, the Company makes customary representations and warranties about various characteristics of each loan. The Company may be required pursuant to the terms of the applicable mortgage loan purchase and sale agreements to repurchase any previously sold loan or indemnify (make whole) the investor for which the representation or warranty of the Company proves to be inaccurate, incomplete or misleading. In the event of a repurchase, the Company is typically required to pay the unpaid principal balance, the proportionate premium received when selling the loan and certain expenses. As a result, the Company may incur a loss with respect to each repurchased loan.

In 2019, in connection with the above mentioned investigations stemming from the Advantage Loan Program, the Bank recorded a mortgage repurchase liability of $7,823, primarily related to probable losses on the previously sold Advantage Loan Program portfolio. The Company determined that these losses became probable in the latter part of the fourth quarter of 2019, taking into account the results of the Internal Review. In 2020, based on further analysis, the Company increased the mortgage repurchase liability by $2,527.

To avoid the uncertainty of audits and inquiries by third-party investors in the Advantage Loan Program, beginning at the end of the second quarter of 2020, the Company commenced making offers to each of those investors to repurchase 100% of the previously sold Advantage Loan Program loans. Since this time, certain third-party investors have accepted this offer. In May 2022, the Company repurchased a pool of Advantage Loan Program loans with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $30,380, which was not subject to an existing written agreement to repurchase. In connection with this repurchase, the Company recognized a loss of $695 related to a fair value discount in other non-interest expense and a disposition of $376 of mortgage servicing rights, and charged a loss of $622 against the mortgage repurchase liability. Through June 30, 2022, the Company has repurchased pools of Advantage Loan Program loans previously sold with a total outstanding unpaid principal balance of $273,847. Pursuant to the existing agreements with such investors, the Company also agreed to repurchase additional pools of Advantage Loan Program loans at the predetermined repurchase prices stated in the agreements. The Company may be required to repurchase the additional pools of Advantage Loan Program loans within the time ranges specified in the following table, with the final decision to effect any such repurchase and the specific date of repurchase within each range to be determined by the applicable investor. Losses expected to be incurred upon the repurchase of such loans are reflected in the mortgage repurchase liability.

Present – July 22, 2023		23,071
July 25, 2022 – July 25, 2023		14,475
	$	60,802

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Bank’s mortgage repurchase liability was $1,807 and $2,954, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid principal balance of residential real estate loans sold that were subject to potential repurchase obligations for breach of representations and warranties totaled $177,704 and $237,049 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, including Advantage Loan Program loans totaling $89,648 and $142,810 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The mortgage repurchase liability reflects management’s estimate of losses based on a combination of factors. The Company’s estimation process requires management to make subjective and complex judgements about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future repurchase demand expectations, economic factors and findings from the Internal Review. The actual repurchase losses could vary significantly from the recorded mortgage repurchase liability, depending on the outcome of various factors, including those previously discussed.

Activity in the mortgage repurchase liability was as follows:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in the future periods may be based upon amounts that could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk

The loan portfolio consists primarily of residential real estate loans, which are collateralized by real estate. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, residential real estate loans accounted for 85% and 83%, respectively, of total gross loans. In addition, most of these residential loans and other commercial loans have been made to individuals and businesses in the state of California, which are dependent on the area economy for their livelihoods and servicing of their loan obligation. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximately 84% and 85%, respectively, of gross loans was originated with respect to properties or businesses located in the state of California.

In March 2020, the Bank permanently discontinued its Advantage Loan program. Loans originated under this program comprised a significant component of the Bank’s total loan originations. Advantage Loan Program loans (including residential real estate loans held for sale of $7,313 and $11,359 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, of which $3,999 and $8,671 were on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively) totaled $992,477 and $1,185,458, or 66% and 69% of gross residential loans, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Refer to Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in ASC 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings involving borrowings that are experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, creditors will evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Also, losses associated with troubled debt restructurings should be incorporated in a creditor’s estimate of its allowance for credit losses. Public business entities are required to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for loan financing receivables and net investment in leases. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“2016-13”), ASU 2022-02 is effective when the entity adopts the guidance in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU, along with its adoption of ASU 2016-13, as discussed below.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, which is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments on a more timely basis. The guidance will replace the current incurred loss accounting model with an expected loss approach and requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which clarifies the scope of the credit losses standard and addresses issues related to accrued interest receivable balances and recoveries, among other things. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. The amendments provide entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis, upon adoption of Topic 326. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates. This update deferred the effective dates of Topic 326 to January 1, 2023 for certain entities including smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC. The Company, as a smaller reporting company as of the relevant measuring period, qualified for this extension.

At this time, a cross-functional implementation team consisting of individuals from accounting, finance, servicing and information systems is working with the Bank’s loan system vendor and consultants, and an application to create credit loss estimation models and processes has been developed. The historical data set for model development has been finalized, and the credit loss estimation models have been developed and tested. Once the credit loss estimation models have been finalized, the Bank will run the new credit loss estimation models in parallel with the current allowance for loan losses model to understand the differences in the models and assess the impact of the change. The Company expects to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023, the beginning of the first reporting period in which ASU No. 2016-13 is effective. The Company has not yet determined the magnitude of any such one-time cumulative adjustment or of the overall impact of ASU No. 2016-13 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
