NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

        First Choice Bancorp, headquartered in Cerritos, California, is a California corporation that was incorporated on September 1, 2017 and is the registered bank holding company for First Choice Bank. Incorporated in March 2005 and commencing commercial bank operations in August 2005, First Choice Bank is a California-chartered member bank. First Choice Bank has a wholly-owned subsidiary, PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, that was part of the acquisition of Pacific Commerce Bank. PCB Real Estate Holding, LLC is used for holding other real estate owned and other assets acquired by foreclosure. References herein to “First Choice Bancorp,” “Bancorp” or the “holding company,” refer to First Choice Bancorp on a stand-alone basis. The words “we," "us," "our," or the "Company" refer to First Choice Bancorp, First Choice Bank and PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC collectively and on a consolidated basis. References to the “Bank” refer to First Choice Bank and PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC on a consolidated basis.

        Headquartered in Cerritos, California, the Bank is a community-based financial institution that serves commercial and consumer clients in diverse communities. The Bank specializes in loans to small- to medium-sized businesses and private banking clients, commercial and industrial loans, and commercial real estate loans with a specialization in providing financial solutions for the hospitality industry. The Bank is a Preferred Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Lender. The Bank conducts business through nine full-service branches and two loan production offices located in Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego Counties. Effective May 17, 2019, the Little Tokyo branch was closed and consolidated with the 6th and Figueroa branch located in downtown Los Angeles and the San Diego branch operations were consolidated into the Carlsbad branch. The San Diego location remains as a loan production office.

        As a California-chartered member bank, the Bank is primarily regulated by the California Department of Business Oversight (the “DBO”) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Bank’s deposits are insured up to the maximum legal limit by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”).

First Choice Bancorp's stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “FCBP.”

Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Choice Bancorp, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Choice Bank, and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for the interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These unaudited interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

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

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and

10

expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change are the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of acquired loans, the valuation of goodwill and separately identifiable intangible assets associated with mergers and acquisitions, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Accounting Policies

The Company's accounting policies are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. They were disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under the section entitled "Summary of Critical Accounting Policies" in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the audited consolidated financial statements included therewith. Updates to our significant accounting policies are described below.

Guidance On Non-TDR Loan Modifications Due To COVID-19

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law. Section 4013 of the CARES Act, entitled "Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings," provides banks with the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") for the period beginning March 1, 2020 and ending on the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the date that is 60 days following the termination of the federal emergency declaration relating to the Coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic.

On April 7, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued a revised statement, entitled "Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working With Customers Affected by the Coronavirus ("Revised Statement"). The Revised Statement clarifies the accounting treatment of loan modifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (“ASC Subtopic 310-40”). To be an eligible loan under section 4013, a loan modification must be (1) related to COVID-19; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (B) December 31, 2020 (applicable period). Financial institutions that account for loans under Section 4013 are not required to apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 to these loans for the term of the loan modification and will not have to report these loans as TDRs in regulatory reports.

In addition, our banking regulators and other financial regulators issued a joint interagency statement titled the “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” on March 22, 2020 and revised April 7, 2020, that encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the interagency statement, loan modifications that do not meet the conditions of Section 4013 of the CARES Act may still qualify as a modification that does not need to be accounted for as a TDR. Specifically, the agencies confirmed with the staff of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that short-term modifications made in good faith in response to the pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs under GAAP. This includes short-term (e.g. six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or delays in payments that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. Appropriate allowances for loan and lease losses are expected to be maintained. With regard to loans not otherwise reportable as past due, financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to the pandemic as past due because of the deferral. The interagency statement also states that during short-term pandemic-related loan modifications, these loans generally should not be reported as nonaccrual.

For loan modifications that do not qualify for treatment under Section 4013 or ASC Subtopic 310-40, as clarified by the Revised Statement, financial institutions will be required to comply with existing accounting policies to determine whether the modification should be accounted for as a TDR.

The Company's initial loan deferral program provided a deferral of principal and/or interest-only payments for periods not exceeding 90-days for all loans that qualify under Section 4013 of the CARES Act. Loans qualifying for deferral

11

under this program continue to accrue interest during the deferral period and are not reported as past due loans or TDRs for the term of the deferral period. At the end of the deferral period, borrowers will be required to resume making regularly scheduled loan payments and the loans will be re-amortized over the remaining term. All payments received will be applied first to interest payments that were deferred during the deferral period, and then to interest and principal as provided under the terms of the loan. The Company may grant an extension of an additional 90-day deferments. The accrued interest will be reviewed to determine if a reserve for uncollectible interest is required.

 Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The primary objective of ASU 2018-13 was to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2018-15"). ASU 2018-15 aligned the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that was a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). ASU 2018-15 was effective on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the years of adoption although early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), also known as "CECL". This guidance will replace the incurred loss impairment methodology used to estimate the allowance for credit losses in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects future expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forecasts in the credit loss estimates. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, private companies and other non-SEC filers. The Company is considered a smaller reporting company. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. The Company is considering early adoption of ASU 2016-13 in 2021. Management has a cross functional committee in place to oversee the project, has selected a software to implement the new guidance using peer historical loss data, has engaged an existing third-party service provider to assist in implementation and has subscribed to a third-party application vendor for economic forecasts. The Company has completed data gap analyses, developed initial modeling assumptions, and run a high level sensitivity analysis. The Company expects to run parallel calculations, testing, and further sensitivity analysis in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test. Step 2 currently measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2017-04 for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company, as well as private companies and other non-SEC filers. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instrument (ASU 2019-05) which grants entities with transition relief upon the adoption of ASU

12

2016-13 by providing an option to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-05 to the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) which clarifies certain aspects of Topic 326 guidance issued in ASU 2016-13 including guidance providing transition relief for TDRs. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-11 to the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12) which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations, and interim calculations, and add guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years after December, 31, 2020. The Company plans to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (ASU 2020-04), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments are effective for contract modifications as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to the consolidated financial statements.

Effective April 27, 2020, the SEC amended the definitions of “accelerated” and “large accelerated filer” to exclude from those definitions registrants that are eligible to be treated as a smaller reporting company and that had annual revenues of less than $100 million in the most recent fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. Prior to these changes, the Company met the definition of an “accelerated filer" because the Company's public float was greater than $75 million but less than $700 million at the end of the Company’s most recent second quarter. The Company does not anticipate that it will qualify as an “accelerated filer” with respect to its annual report on form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2020 under these amended definitions. Whether an issuer qualifies as an “accelerated” or “large accelerated filer” or a “smaller reporting company” is determinative of whether the issuer is required to have their management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial report attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor, as required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Unlike “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filers, smaller reporting companies are not required to have independent auditor attestations of internal control over financial reporting, but remain obligated, among other things, to establish and maintain internal controls over financial reporting as required by SOX Section 404(a) and have management assess the effectiveness of these controls. In addition, smaller reporting companies also have additional time to file quarterly and annual financial statements.

Nevertheless, because the Bank’s total assets exceed $1.0 billion, the Bank is separately required by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") to have its management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Bank’s regulatory financial reporting attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor. Accordingly, the SEC’s amended definitions of “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filer do not materially impact the Company's annual reporting and audit requirements other than providing the Company with additional time to prepare and file its periodic reports required to be filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

NOTE 2. INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment securities have been classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheets according to management’s intent to either hold them to maturity or make them available for sale. The carrying amount of securities held-to-maturity and securities available-for-sale and their approximate fair values at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of all investment securities held-to-maturity and available-for-sale at June 30, 2020, by contractual maturities are shown below. Contractual maturities may differ from expected maturities because the obligors and/or issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

	Held to Maturity				Available for Sale
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value

	$	1,691	$	1,809	$	35,874	$	36,783

(1) Mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and SBA pools do not have a single stated maturity date and, therefore, have been included in the "Due after ten years" category.

        At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer in an amount greater than 10% of our shareholders’ equity. There were no purchases, sales and maturities or calls of any investment securities available-for-sale or held-to-maturity during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. There were $13.0

14

million in purchases of investment securities available-for-sale and $3.4 million in calls of U.S. Government and agency securities held-to-maturity during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no sales and maturities of any investment securities available-for-sale or held-to-maturity during the six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no purchases, sales and maturities or calls of any investment securities available-for-sale or held-to-maturity during the six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2020 securities held-to-maturity with a carrying amount of $1.7 million were pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank as discussed in Note 8 – Borrowing Arrangements.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, are summarized as follows:

	Less Than Twelve Months				Over Twelve Months				Total
	Unrealized Losses		Fair Value		Unrealized Losses		Fair Value		Unrealized Losses		Fair Value
June 30, 2020	(dollars in thousands)

        At June 30, 2020, the Company had two investment securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position with total unrealized losses of $73 thousand. Such unrealized losses on these investment securities have not been recognized into income. The Company does not believe these unrealized losses are other-than-temporary because the issuers’ bonds are above investment grade, the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates, and management does not intend to sell these securities nor is it more likely than not that management would be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.

Equity Securities with a Readily Determinable Fair Value

        At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, equity securities with a readily determinable fair value of $2.8 million and $2.7 million were represented by a mutual fund investment consisting of high-quality debt securities and other debt instruments supporting domestic affordable housing and community development. The Company recognized net gains of $12 thousand, $42 thousand and $38 thousand related to changes in fair value during the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, all of which related to equity securities held during those periods. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized net gains of $54 thousand and $74 thousand related to changes in fair value.

Restricted Stock Investments

The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own FHLB stock of the greater of 1% of FHLB membership asset value or 2.7% of outstanding FHLB advances. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank owned $6.1 million of FHLB stock which is carried at cost. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no required purchases of FHLB stock. The Company evaluated the carrying value of our FHLB stock investment at June 30,

15

2020 and determined that it was not impaired. This evaluation considered the long-term nature of the investment, the current financial and liquidity position of the FHLB, repurchase activity of excess stock by the FHLB at its carrying value, the return on the investment from recurring and special dividends, and our intent and ability to hold this investment for a period of time sufficient to recover our recorded investment.

        As a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, the Bank owned $6.9 million of Federal Reserve stock, which is carried at cost, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There were no required purchases of Federal Reserve stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company purchased $13 thousand of Federal Reserve stock during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Bank purchased $60 thousand and $72 thousand of Federal Reserve stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company evaluated the carrying value of our Federal Reserve stock investment at June 30, 2020 and determined that it was not impaired. This evaluation considered the long-term nature of the investment, the current financial and liquidity position of the Federal Reserve, repurchase activity of excess stock by the Federal Reserve at its carrying value, the return on the investment from recurring dividends, and our intent and ability to hold this investment for a period of time sufficient to recover our recorded investment.

Other Equity Securities Without A Readily Determinable Fair Value

        The Company also has equity securities in the form of capital stock invested in two different banker’s bank stocks (collectively "Other Bank Stocks") which totaled $1.0 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and are reported in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company evaluated the carrying value of these equity securities and determined that they were not impaired, and no loss related to changes in the fair value of these equity securities was recognized.

The Company has an investment in Class A common stock of Clearinghouse Community Development Financial Institution ("CDFI") totaling $500 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Clearinghouse CDFI is a for-profit institution that is committed to provide economic opportunities and to improve the quality of life for low-income individuals and to improve the communities through innovative and affordable financing. The purpose of this investment, first and foremost, aligns with our mission statement as a community bank to help the underserved people in our communities, as well as to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, and to receive Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") lending credits. This equity security is recorded at cost and is included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not purchase additional securities. At June 30, 2020, the Company evaluated the carrying value of this equity security and determined that it was not impaired, and no loss was recognized related to changes in the fair value.

Qualified Affordable Housing Project Investments

The Company also has commitments and investments in a partnership that sponsors affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code in 2019. This investment is recorded net of accumulated amortization, using the proportional amortization method. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is being amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received, and the amortization is being recognized as part of the income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income. Total estimated tax credits allocated and proportional amortization expense recognized were $26 thousand and $12 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Total estimated tax credits allocated and proportional amortization expense recognized were $44 thousand and $33 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net LIHTC investment totaled $555 thousand and $236 thousand. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made capital contributions of $325 thousand and $351 thousand. There were no capital contribution during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2020, the Company evaluated the carrying value of these securities and determined they were not impaired, and no loss was recognized related to changes in the fair value.

NOTE 3. LOANS

The Company's loan portfolio consists primarily of loans to borrowers within our principal market area of Los Angeles County, Orange County and San Diego County, California. Although the Company seeks to avoid concentrations of loans to a single industry or based upon a single class of collateral, real estate and real estate associated businesses, such as

16

hospitality businesses, are among the principal industries in the Company's market area and, as a result, the Company's loan and collateral portfolios are, to some degree, concentrated in those industries. The Company also originates SBA loans either for sale to institutional investors or to hold in the loan portfolio. Loans identified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their net carrying value or market value and separately designated as such in the condensed consolidated financial statements. A portion of the Company's revenues are from origination and servicing of loans guaranteed by the SBA under its various programs and sale of the guaranteed portions of the loans. Funding for these loans depends on annual appropriations by the U.S. Congress.

Beginning in April of 2020, the Company participated in the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), administrated by the SBA, in assisting its borrowers with additional liquidity. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and carry a fixed rate of 1.00% with a two-year contractual maturity (loans originated before June 5, 2020) or five years (loans originated on or after June 5, 2020), if not forgiven. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. The Company was paid a processing fee from the SBA ranging from 1% to 5% based on the size of the loan. At June 30, 2020, PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $11.5 million, totaled $389.2 million and the weighted average rate for the processing fee was 3.16%. The unearned fees are being accreted to interest income based on the two-year contractual maturity. The Company anticipates that the SBA may forgive a significant number of PPP loans in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, at which point the recognition of fee income will be accelerated into interest income. On April 14, 2020, the Company was approved by the Federal Reserve to access its SBA Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF"). The PPPLF enables the Company to borrow funds through the Federal Reserve Discount Window to fund PPP loans. At June 30, 2020, the Company pledged $173.7 million of PPP loans as eligible collateral under the PPPLF borrowing arrangement. See Note 8 –Borrowing Arrangements for additional information regarding the PPPLF.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had pledged $1.23 billion of loans with the FHLB under a blanket lien, of which $834.4 million was considered as eligible collateral under this secured borrowing arrangement, and loans with an unpaid principal balance of $212.8 million were pledged as collateral under a secured borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve. See Note 8 –Borrowing Arrangements for additional information regarding the FHLB and Federal Reserve secured lines of credit.

        The loans held for investment portfolio includes originated and acquired loans. The acquired loans includes: (i) loans that were not credit impaired on the date of acquisition ("Non-PCI"); and (ii) purchased credit impaired ("PCI") loans, which are defined as loans with evidence of credit deterioration since their originations and for which it is probable that collection of all contractually required payments are unlikely as of the acquisition date. The following table presents loans held for investment, net, by loan class at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

The Company categorizes loans by risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, collateral adequacy, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis typically includes larger, non-homogeneous loans such as commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. This analysis is performed on an ongoing basis as new information is obtained. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass - Loans classified as pass represent assets with a level of credit quality which contain no well-defined deficiency or weakness.

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 institution’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 debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

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

Loss - Loans classified loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total recorded investment for loans identified as a TDR was approximately $469 thousand and $479 thousand. There were no specific reserves allocated for these loans and the Company had not committed to lend any additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as TDRs at June 30, 2020.

Loan modifications resulting in TDR status generally included one or a combination of the following concessions: extensions of the maturity date, principal payment deferments or signed forbearance agreements with a payment plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were no new loan modifications resulting in TDRs. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were no new loan modifications resulting in TDRs.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand, $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modification.

COVID-Related Loan Deferments

At June 30, 2020, the Company had 520 loans totaling $626 million, which included $11 million of loans held for sale, with a 90-day principal and/or interest deferral for COVID-related reasons. No deferred payment loans which met the

23

requirement under Section 4013 of the CARES Act were reported as past due loans or troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") as of June 30, 2020. The Company currently expects that the majority of these loans will resume payments in the third quarter of 2020. Total accrued interest receivable related to these loans on deferment was $10 million with a reserve of $138 thousand at June 30, 2020. Borrowers are contractually required to resume making full payments after the deferral period ends. The Company may grant additional 90-day deferments.

Loans Held for Sale

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, loans held for sale consisted of SBA 7(a) loans and totaled $20.3 million and $7.7 million. The Company accounts for loans held for sale at the lower of carrying value or fair value. The fair value of loans held for sale totaled $21.9 million and $8.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

At June 30, 2020, loans held for sale with a net carrying value of $11.0 million were modified for a 90-day principal and interest deferment under the Section 4013 of the CARES Act.

NOTE 4. OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED AND OTHER FORECLOSED ASSETS

Other real estate owned and other assets ("OREO") acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure are recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure. On an ongoing basis, properties are appraised as required by market conditions and applicable regulations. At June 30, 2020, other real estate owned and other foreclosed assets totaled $602 thousand, and resulted in net a gain on transfer of loan collateral to foreclosed assets of $153 thousand included in other income in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no provisions and reserves for OREO recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

NOTE 5. TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

        The Company sells loans in the secondary market and, for certain loans, retains the servicing responsibility. The loans serviced for others are accounted for as sales and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Loans serviced for others totaled $263.5 million and $278.6 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. This includes SBA loans serviced for others of $195.5 million at June 30, 2020 and $214.8 million at December 31, 2019 for which there is a related servicing asset of $2.5 million and $3.2 million. In addition, the loan servicing portfolio includes construction and land development loans, commercial real estate loans and commercial & industrial loans participated with various other institutions of $68.0 million and $63.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for which there is no related servicing asset.

        Consideration for each SBA loan sale includes the cash received and a related servicing asset. The Company receives servicing fees ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% for the services provided over the life of the loan. The servicing asset is based on the estimated fair value of these future cash flows to be collected. The risk inherent in the SBA servicing asset primarily relates to accelerated prepayment of loans in excess of what was originally modeled driven by changes in interest rates and a reduction in the estimated future cash flows.

        The servicing asset activity includes additions from loan sales with servicing retained and reductions from amortization as the serviced loans are repaid and servicing fees are earned. The SBA servicing asset activity is summarized for the periods indicated:

The fair value of the servicing asset for SBA loans is measured quarterly and was $2.8 million and $3.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The significant assumptions used in the valuation of the SBA servicing asset at June 30, 2020 included discount rates, ranging from 6.1% to 44.7%, and a weighted average prepayment speed assumption of 21.4%.

The following table summarizes the estimated change in the value of servicing assets as of June 30, 2020 given hypothetical shifts in prepayments speeds and yield assumptions: 

	Change in Assumption	Change in Estimated Fair Value
		(dollars in thousands)
Prepayment speeds	+10%	$	(163)
Prepayment speeds	+20%	(310)
Discount rate	+1%	(66)
Discount rate	+2%	(129)

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 , there were no SBA loans sold. SBA loans sold totaled $16.4 million resulting in total gains on sale of SBA loans of $1.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, SBA loans sold totaled $3.4 million and $35.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total gains on sales of SBA loans were $377 thousand and $2.2 million.

Net servicing (costs) fees, a component of noninterest income, represent contractually specified servicing fees reported net of the servicing asset amortization. Net servicing (costs) fees totaled $(9) thousand and $287 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 including contractually specified servicing fees of $463 thousand and $493 thousand, offset by the amortization indicated in the table above. Net servicing fees totaled $215 thousand and $521 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, including contractually specified servicing fees of $969 thousand and $938 thousand, offset by the amortization indicated in the table above.

NOTE 6. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

        In connection with the acquisition of Pacific Commerce Bancorp ("PCB"), the Company recognized goodwill of $73.4 million and a core deposit intangible ("CDI") of $6.9 million on July 31, 2018. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting volatility in our stock price during the first six months of 2020, the Company evaluated goodwill for impairment at June 30, 2020 and tested for impairment by comparing an estimated fair value of the Company to our book value. The fair value was estimated using the following two tests: (i) recent acquisition price-to-tangible book multiples were applied to the Company's tangible book value to compute the estimated fair value; and (ii) an “average price to last twelve month earnings” market multiple was applied to: (i) the actual twelve months of earnings and (ii) forecasted fiscal year 2020 earnings. Both tests resulted in the estimated fair value exceeding book value, and therefore, the Company did not recognize any impairment of goodwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized the CDI amortization indicated in the table below.

NOTE 7. DEPOSITS

The ten largest depositor relationships accounted for approximately 30% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 and 28% at December 31, 2019.

Brokered non-maturity deposits totaled $25.0 million and $48.1 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Brokered time deposits totaled $115.5 million and $50.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Time deposits that exceeded the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000 amounted to $37.9 million and $61.7 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company participates in a state public deposits program that allows it to receive deposits from the state or from political subdivisions within the state in amounts that would not be covered by the FDIC. This program provides a stable source of funding to the Company. Total collateralized deposits, including the deposits of State of California and other public agencies, were $60.4 million at June 30, 2020 and were collateralized by letters of credit issued by the FHLB under the Bank's secured line of credit with the FHLB. See Note 8 –Borrowing Arrangements for additional information regarding the FHLB secured line of credit.

NOTE 8. BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

Federal Home Loan Bank Secured Line of Credit

        At June 30, 2020, the Bank had a secured line of credit of $424.3 million from the FHLB, of which $203.3 million was available. This secured borrowing arrangement is collateralized under the blanket lien and is subject to the Bank providing adequate collateral and continued compliance with the Advances and Security Agreement and other eligibility requirements established by the FHLB. At June 30, 2020, the Bank had pledged $1.23 billion of loans under a blanket lien, of which $834.4 million was considered as eligible collateral under this borrowing agreement.

At June 30, 2020, the Bank also participated in the FHLB San Francisco's new Recovery Advance loan program for $10 million at zero percent interest at June 30, 2020 with maturity dates in November 2020 and May 2021. The following table shows the interest rates and maturity dates of FHLB advances at periods indicated:

	June 30, 2020					December 31, 2019

26

        In addition, at June 30, 2020, the Bank used $71.0 million of its secured FHLB borrowing capacity by having the FHLB issue letters of credit to meet collateral requirements for deposits from the State of California and other public agencies.

The average outstanding balance of total FHLB borrowings was $145.4 million and $75.9 million with an average interest rate of 0.54% and 2.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The average balance of total FHLB borrowings was $117.6 million and $55.6 million with an average interest rate of 0.98% and 2.53% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Federal Reserve Bank Secured Line of Credit

        At June 30, 2020, the Bank had a secured line of credit of $127.0 million from the Federal Reserve Bank. During the third quarter of 2019, the Bank expanded the existing secured borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve through the Borrower-in-Custody ("BIC") program. At June 30, 2020, the Bank had pledged qualifying loans with an unpaid principal balance of $212.8 million and securities held-to-maturity with a carrying value of $1.7 million as collateral for this line. Borrowings under this BIC program are overnight advances with interest chargeable at Federal Reserve discount window ("Primary Credit") borrowing rate. There were no borrowings under this credit facility at or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and there were no borrowings at December 31, 2019.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility

On April 14, 2020, the Bank was approved by the Federal Reserve to access its SBA Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF") through the discount window. The PPPLF enables the Company to fund PPP loans without taking on additional liquidity or funding risks by providing non-recourse loans collateralized by the PPP loans. Borrowings under the PPPLF have a fixed-rate of 0.35%, with a term that matches the underlying loans pledged of two years. The Bank pledged $173.7 million of PPP loans as eligible collateral under the PPPLF borrowing arrangement at June 30, 2020. The average outstanding borrowings were $128.0 million and $63.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Federal Funds Unsecured Lines of Credit

        The Bank has established unsecured overnight borrowing arrangements for an aggregate amount of $125.0 million, subject to availability, with five of its correspondent banks. In general, interest rates on these lines approximate the federal funds target rate. There were no borrowings under these credit facilities at or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and there were no borrowings at December 31, 2019. The average outstanding borrowings were $1.5 million and $1.3 million with an average interest rate of 2.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Senior Secured Notes

        The holding company has a senior secured revolving line of credit for $25 million, which matures on March 22, 2022. At June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance under this secured line of credit totaled $6.5 million with a floating interest rate equal to Wall Street Journal Prime, or 3.25%. At December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance totaled $9.6 million with an interest rate of 5.00%. The average outstanding borrowings under this facility totaled $6.8 million and $12.4 million with an average interest rate of 3.39% and 5.89% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The average outstanding borrowings under this facility totaled $7.4 million and $12.2 million with an average interest rate of 4.03% and 5.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. At June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants on the facility and the remaining available credit was $18.5 million. One of our executives is also a member of the lending bank's board of directors.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES

        The Company accounts for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon temporary differences between the amounts for financial reporting purposes and tax basis of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets

27

decreased by approximately $334 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of changes to temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. This analysis is updated quarterly and adjusted as necessary. Based on this analysis, management has determined that a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not required at June 30, 2020.

        For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, income tax expense was $2.4 million and $3.2 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 29.8% and 31.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, income tax expense was $4.3 million and $6.4 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 29.3% and 31.8%. Our effective tax

rate is close to the statutory rate of 29.6% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and higher than the statutory rate during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 due to the tax effect of stock-based compensation.

  The Company is subject to federal income and California franchise tax. At June 30, 2020, the federal statute of limitations for the assessment of income tax is closed for all tax years up to and including 2015. The California statute of limitations for the assessment of franchise tax is closed for all years up to and including 2014. The Company is currently not under examination in any taxing jurisdiction.

        The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $113 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, primarily comprised of unrecognized tax benefits from tax positions taken in prior years. The total amount of tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective tax rate was $0 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. We expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to decrease by $113 thousand within the next six months due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes.

        The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense, and had accrued $23 thousand and $19 thousand of interest at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. No amounts for penalties were accrued at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

On June 29, 2020, the Assembly Bill No. 85 (AB 85) was signed into law by California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise additional income tax revenue to assist in balancing the California budget caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The most significant provision of this bill is the suspension of the net operating losses (NOL) deduction for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 and before January 1, 2023. The existing 20-year carry forward period for NOLs (10 years for losses incurred in the tax year 2000 through 2007) would be extended for up to three years if losses are not used due to the NOL suspension.

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act. Among other provisions, the CARES Act makes several modifications to federal net operating losses, including requiring a taxpayer with a net operating loss (“NOL”) arising in a taxable year beginning in 2018, 2019, or 2020 to carry that loss back to each of the five preceding years unless the taxpayer elects to waive or reduce the carryback. The Company did not generate NOLs in 2018 and 2019.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial commitments to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial commitments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk not recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. 

The Company's exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as the Company does for loans reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

28

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding financial commitments whose contractual amounts represent credit risk:

	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
	(dollars in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	386,509	$	376,879
Standby letters of credit	6,905		7,616
Commitments to contribute capital to low income housing projects	1,387		1,738
Commitments to contribute capital to other CRA equity investments	185		236
Total	$	394,986	$	386,469

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. The majority of the commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are secured by real estate. The provision for unfunded loan commitments was $300 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no provisions for unfunded loan commitments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The reserve for unfunded commitments was $1.5 million and $1.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The reserve for unfunded commitments is included in "other liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company committed to invest in a partnership that sponsors affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of this investment is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of additional affordable housing projects, and to assist in achieving goals associated with the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"). Capital contributions are called for up to an amount specified in the partnership agreement. In addition, the Company invested in other CRA investments such as the Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") program. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had unfunded commitments to contribute capital to LIHTC investments and other CRA investments totaling $1.6 million and $2.0 million.

In the normal course of business, the Company is named or threatened to be named as a defendant in various lawsuits. The Company is from time to time engaged in various litigation matters including the defense of claims of improper or fraudulent loan practices or lending violations, and other matters, and the Company has a number of unresolved claims pending. In addition, as part of the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to litigation involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the collection of delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral, and foreclosure interests that are incidental to our regular business activities. While the ultimate liability with respect to these other litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that damages, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not likely to be material to the condensed consolidated balance sheets or condensed consolidated statements of income.

NOTE 11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide loans to certain executive officers and directors and the companies with which they are associated. There were no related party loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Deposits from certain officers and directors and the companies with which they are associated totaled $28.2 million and $35.0 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The holding company has a $25.0 million senior secured facility and a $20.0 million federal funds unsecured line of credit (refer to Note 8 - Borrowing Arrangements) with a correspondent bank in which one of the Company's executives is also a member of the correspondent bank’s Board of Directors. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance of the senior secured facility was $6.5 million and $9.6 million. There were no borrowings under the unsecured line of credit at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company maintains a correspondent deposit relationship with the correspondent bank, and had deposits of $2.5 million and $1.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company has invested in stock of the correspondent bank which totaled $102 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31,

29

2019. In addition, the Company has loan participation agreements where the Company may participate out a portion of loans to the correspondent bank. The total participated loan balance was $22.9 million and $16.3 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

NOTE 12. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company's 2013 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”) was approved by shareholders in May 2013. Under the terms of the 2013 Plan, officers and key employees may be granted both nonqualified and incentive stock options and directors and other consultants, who are not also an officer or employee, may only be granted nonqualified stock options. The 2013 Plan also permits the grant of stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted shares, deferred shares, performance shares and performance unit awards. The 2013 Plan provides that the total number of awards of common stock that may be issued over the term of the plan shall not exceed 1,590,620 shares, of which a maximum of 300,000 shares may be granted as incentive stock options. An increase of 200,000 shares available for issuance under the 2013 Plan was approved by the Company's shareholders in June 2020. Stock options, SARs, performance share and unit awards are granted at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options generally vest over a period of three to five years. The 2013 Plan provides for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control, as defined in the 2013 Plan. Stock options expire no later than ten years from the grant. The 2013 Plan expires in 2023.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $518 thousand and $567 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million and $969 thousand.

NOTE 13. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed on a basic and diluted basis. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Basic shares outstanding exclude unvested shares of restricted stock and stock options. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shares in our earnings. The Company's unvested grants of restricted stock contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, which are required to be treated as participating securities and included in the computation of earnings per share.

The following is a reconciliation of net income and shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

NOTE 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the asset or obligation could be exchanged (using an exit price notion) in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market value exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates are based on financial instruments both on and off the balance sheet without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial

instruments. Additionally, tax consequences related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant

effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates. The methods and assumptions used to

estimate the fair value of certain financial instruments are described below:

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values

because of the liquidity of these instruments.

Interest Bearing Deposits at Other Banks. The carrying amount is assumed to be the fair value given the short-term

nature of these deposits.

Loans. The fair value of loans, which is based on an exit price notion, is generally determined using an income based approach based on discounted cash flow analysis. This approach utilizes the contractual maturity of the loans and

market indications of interest rates, prepayment speeds, defaults and credit risk in determining fair value. For impaired loans,

an asset-based approach is applied to determine the estimated fair values of the underlying collateral. This approach utilizes

32

the estimated net sales proceeds to determine the fair value of the loans when deemed appropriate. The implied sales

proceeds value provides a better indication of value than using an income-based approach as these loans are not performing

or exhibit strong signs indicative of non-performance.

Securities. The fair values of securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.

Equity Securities and Other Bank Stock. The fair value of equity securities is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value. If quoted prices are not available to determine fair value, the Company estimates the fair values by using independent pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Restricted Stock Investments. Investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve stocks are recorded at cost and measured for impairment. Ownership of FHLB and Federal Reserve stocks are restricted to member banks and the securities do not have a readily determinable market value. Purchases and sales of these securities are at par value with the issuer. The fair value of investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve stock and other bank stock is equal to the carrying amount.

Servicing Asset. The fair value of servicing assets is based, in part, by third-party valuations that project estimated

future cash inflows that include servicing fees and outflows that include market rates for costs of servicing.

Deposits. The fair values disclosed for demand deposits, including interest and non-interest demand accounts,

savings, and certain types of money market accounts are, by definition based on carrying value. Fair value for fixed-rate

certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered

on certificates to a schedule of aggregate expected monthly maturities on time deposits. Early withdrawal of fixed-rate

certificates of deposit is not expected to be significant.

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings. The fair values of the Company’s overnight borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank approximates their carrying value as the advances were recently borrowed at market rate. The fair value of fixed-rated term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow through the remaining maturity dates based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility. The fair value of PPPLF is estimated using a discounted cash flow based on the remaining contractual term and current borrowing rates for similar terms.

Senior Secured Notes. The fair value of the senior secured notes approximates carrying value as the note was recently borrowed at a variable market rate.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable. The fair value of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates their carrying amounts.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material.

The following table provides the fair value hierarchy level and estimated fair value of significant financial instruments at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

		June 30, 2020				December 31, 2019

Nonrecurring fair value measurements

These fair value measurements typically result from the application of specific accounting pronouncements under GAAP. The fair value measurements are considered nonrecurring fair value measurements under FASB ASC 820-10.

34

The following table provides the hierarchy and fair value for each major category of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
June 30, 2020:	(dollars in thousands)
Impaired loans	$	—	$	—	$	2,428	$	2,428
Other real estate owned and others (OREO)	—		—		602		602
December 31, 2019:
Impaired loans	$	—	$	—	$	3,558	$	3,558
Other real estate owned and others (OREO)	—		—		—		—

The majority of the impaired loans are considered collateral-dependent loans or are supported by a SBA guaranty. The collateral-dependent impaired loans were written down to the fair value of their underlying collateral less costs to sell of $2.4 million and $3.6 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, by establishing specific reserves or by recording charge-offs when the carrying value exceeded the fair value of the underlying collateral of impaired loans. The Company generally utilized selling costs of 10% of appraised values for nonrecurring fair value measurements related to collateral-dependent impaired loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The fair value adjustments (which include charge-offs, net of recoveries and changes in specific reserves) resulted in gains of $59 thousand and $118 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no collateral-dependent impaired loans measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. In addition, there were no fair value adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Other real estate owned and other foreclosed assets (OREO) are recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs through a charge-off to the allowance for loan and lease losses or gain on transfer of OREO included in other income in the condensed consolidated statements of income based upon the fair value of the foreclosed property at acquisition. The fair value of an OREO is based on third party information and appraisals including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are regularly 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. When the carrying amount exceeds the fair value less estimated selling costs, and impairment loss is recognized through a valuation allowance, and the property is reported as nonrecurring Level 3.

NOTE 15. REVENUE RECOGNITION

        The portion of our noninterest income which is in scope of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, includes fees from deposit customers for transaction-based fees, account maintenance charges, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees include items such as ATM and ACH fees, overdraft and stop payment charges, and are recognized at the time such transactions are executed and service has been fulfilled. Account maintenance charges, which are primarily monthly fees, are earned over the course of the month, which represents the period through which the Company satisfies its performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the time the overdraft occurs. Service charges are typically withdrawn from the customer’s account balance. 

        The following is a summary of our noninterest income in-scope and not in-scope of Topic 606:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended June 30,
	June 30, 2020		June 30, 2019		2020		2019
	(dollars in thousands)
Noninterest income, in-scope:

NOTE 16.  EQUITY

Dividends

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total quarterly cash dividends declared were $0.25 and $0.20 per share and total cash dividends paid were $2.9 million and $2.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total quarterly cash dividends declared were $0.50 and $0.40 per share and total cash dividends paid were $5.8 million and $4.7 million.

Stock Repurchase Plan

        On December 3, 2018, the Company announced a stock repurchase plan, providing for the repurchase of up to 1.2 million shares, or approximately 10%, of our then outstanding shares (the "repurchase plan"). The repurchase plan permits shares to be repurchased in open market or private transactions, through block trades, and pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18. The repurchase plan may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of tentative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors management deems appropriate. These factors may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases. The repurchase plan does not obligate us to purchase any particular number of shares.

        On March 17, 2020, the Company suspended the stock repurchase plan to allow the Company to preserve capital and provide additional liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic to meet the credit needs of the Company’s customers, as well as support small businesses and the local economies served by the Company through the Bank's lending and other important services. There were no repurchases of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 12,824 shares of the Company's common stock repurchased at an average price of $21.30 per share and a total cost of $272 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company repurchased 38,411 and 328,770 shares of the Company's common stock at an average price of $22.34 and $21.54 and a total cost of $858 thousand and $7.1 million. Since the plan was announced, the Company has repurchased a total of 504,511 shares at an average price of $21.70 per share. The remaining number of shares authorized to be repurchased under this plan is 695,489 shares at June 30, 2020.

NOTE 17.  REGULATORY CAPITAL

First Choice Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. 

36

At June 30, 2020, the Company qualified for treatment under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (Regulation Y, Appendix C) and, therefore, is not subject to consolidated capital rules at the bank holding company level. The Bank has also opted into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio ("CBLR") framework, beginning with the Call Report filed for the first quarter of 2020. At June 30, 2020, the Bank's CBLR ratio was 10.31% which exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under the CBLR framework and the Bank was considered to be ‘‘well-capitalized.’’

        Banks and their bank holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a leverage ratio (equal to tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets) of greater than 9%, are eligible to opt into the CBLR framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9% will be considered to have satisfied the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules (generally applicable rule) and, if applicable, will be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Accordingly, a qualifying community banking organization that exceeds the 9% CBLR will be considered to have met: (i) the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements of the generally applicable capital rules; (ii) the capital ratio requirements in order to be considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework; and (iii) any other applicable capital or leverage requirements. A qualifying community banking organization that elects to be under the CBLR framework generally would be exempt from the current capital framework, including risk-based capital requirements and capital conservation buffer requirements. A banking organization meets the definition of a “qualifying community banking organization” if the organization has:

•A leverage ratio of greater than 9%;

•Total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion;

•Total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than sold credit derivatives and unconditionally cancellable commitments) of 25% or less of total consolidated assets; and

•Total trading assets plus trading liabilities of 5% or less of total consolidated assets.

Even though a banking organization meets the above-stated criteria, federal banking regulators have reserved the authority to disallow the use of the CBLR framework by a depository institution or depository institution holding company, based on the risk profile of the banking organization.

On April 6, 2020, the federal banking regulators, implementing the applicable provisions of the CARES Act, issued interim rules which modified the CBLR framework so that: (i) beginning in the second quarter 2020 and until the end of the year, a banking organization that has a leverage ratio of 8% or greater and meets certain other criteria may elect to use the CBLR framework; and (ii) community banking organizations will have until January 1, 2022, before the CBLR requirement is reestablished at greater than 9%. Under the interim rules, the minimum CBLR will be 8% beginning in the second quarter and for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The interim rules also maintain a two-quarter grace period for a qualifying community banking organization whose leverage ratio falls no more than 1% below the applicable community bank leverage ratio. Assets originated under the PPP which are also pledged under the PPPLF are deducted from average total consolidated assets for purposes of the CBLR. However, such assets are included in total consolidated assets for purposes of determining the eligibility to elect the CBLR framework.

NOTE 18.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 6, 2020, the Company declared a $0.25 cash dividend payable on September 3, 2020 to shareholders of

record as of August 20, 2020.

Recent Developments

Key Events Related to COVID-19 During Second Quarter of 2020:

•On May 7, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom began modifying the "stay at home" order and released updated industry guidance including retail, manufacturing and logistics to begin reopening with modifications that reduce risk and establish a safer environment for workers and customers.

•On June 30, 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order extending authorization for local governments to halt evictions for renters impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, through September 30.

The ongoing COVID-19 national health emergency has caused serious disruptions in the U.S. economy and financial markets, and has had an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Entire industries within our loan portfolio, such as hospitality and restaurants, have been impacted due to quarantines and travel restrictions and other industries we serve are likely to experience similar disruptions and economic hardships as the COVID-19 pandemic persists.

The CARES Act provides for economic relief including, but not limited to, the following:

•Section 4013 of the CARES Act, entitled "Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings," provides banks with the option to suspend the accounting requirements within ASC 310-40 for loan modifications related

39

to COVID-19 that would otherwise qualify as TDRs. Modifications of loans eligible under Section 4013 must be (1) related to COVID-19; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (B) December 31, 2020.

•The initial $349 billion Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") was supplemented in late April 2020 with additional funding of $310 billion. On June 5, 2020, the PPP Flexibility Act (the "new Act") was signed into law, and made significant changes to the PPP to provide additional relief for small businesses. The new Act increased flexibility for small businesses that have been unable to rehire employees due to lack of employee availability, or have been unable to operate as normal due to COVID-19 related restrictions. It extended the period that businesses have to use PPP funds to qualify for loan forgiveness to 24 weeks, up from 8 weeks under the original rules. The new Act also relaxed the requirements that loan recipients must adhere to in order to qualify for loan forgiveness. In addition, the new Act extended the payment deferral period for PPP loans until the date when the amount of loan forgiveness is determined and remitted to the lender. For PPP recipients who do not apply for forgiveness, the loan deferral period is 10 months after the applicable forgiveness period ends.

•On April 9, 2020, the Federal Reserves also announced the Main Street Lending Program, in which the Federal Reserve will purchase 95% of loans made to small and medium-sized business and non-profits. These Main Street loans are full-recourse loans and are not forgivable. Under section 4003(d)(3) of the CARES Act, the principal amount of a Main Street loan cannot be reduced through loan forgiveness.

•Foreclosure moratorium for a 60-day period beginning March 18, 2020, foreclosures and related sales or evictions on federally-backed mortgage loans are prohibited.

•Temporary moratorium on eviction filings for renters in multifamily properties with federal backed multifamily mortgage loans or certain housing programs.

•On July 4, 2020 the deadline for PPP loan applications was extended to August 8, 2020. We do not plan to originate any additional PPP loans for the remainder of 2020.

After the CARES Act was signed into law, the banking agencies issued a Revised Statement to encourage banks to work prudently with borrowers that may be unable to meet their contractual obligations because of the effects of COVID-19. The requirements of the Revised Statement differ slightly from the CARES Act Section 4013, and may be applied if a loan modification is not eligible under Section 4013 or the bank elects not to account for loan modifications under section 4013. The criteria under the Revised Statement are: the borrower must be current at the time that the modification program is implemented, the modification is short term (e.g., six months), and management shall use judgement to determine if the modification is related to COVID-19. We have implemented a loan deferral program meeting the eligibility requirements of Section 4013 of the CARES Act. See "Payment Deferral Program" below.

COVID-19 Updates for the Second Quarter of 2020:

Continued Support for Employees, Clients, and Communities.

•All branches re-opened in July

•Several safety measures have been implemented at all open locations for the health and safety of employees and clients. Implemented measures include: germ guards, social distancing markers, PPE (masks, gloves and hand sanitizer), daily enhanced cleaning with CDC recommended disinfectants, limited same time client entry and reduced lobby hours

•No employee lay-offs, furloughs, or reduced hours

•$60,000 in donations to over 30 non-profits organizations within our footprint where communities served are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and the economic distress of this pandemic

•Approved as an “Eligible Lender” for the Main Street Lending Program

Payment Deferral Program. At June 30, 2020, the Company had 520 loans totaling $626 million with a 90-day principal and/or interest deferral for COVID-related reasons. No deferred payment loans which met the requirement under Section

40

4013 of the CARES Act were reported as past due loans or troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs"). The Company currently expects that the majority of these loans have or will resume payments in the third quarter of 2020. Total accrued interest receivable related to these loans on deferment was $10 million with a reserve of $138 thousand at June 30, 2020. Borrowers are contractually required to resume making full payments after the deferral period ends. We may grant additional 90-day deferments. As of July 16, 2020, 232 loans with a net carrying value of $397 million at June 30, 2020, or 63% of total loan balance, resumed making payments or paid off, and only four loans totaling $11 million were granted an additional 90-day deferment. The remainder is expected to resume payments as scheduled. The following table shows the composition of the payment deferral program at June 30, 2020:

Paycheck Protection Program. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company participated in the Paycheck Protection Program, administrated by the SBA, in assisting its borrowers with additional liquidity. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and carry a fixed rate of 1.00% with a two-year contractual maturity, if not forgiven. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. The Company was paid a processing fee ranging from 1% to 5% based on the size of the loan. At June 30, 2020, PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $11.5 million, totaled $389.2 million and the weighted average rate for the processing fee was 3.16%. The unearned fees have been received from the SBA and are being accreted to interest income based on the two-year contractual maturity. The Company anticipates that the SBA may forgive a significant number of PPP loans in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, at which point the recognition of fee income will be accelerated. No PPP loans were forgiven as of June 30, 2020 pending the issuance of regulatory guidelines. The following table shows the total outstanding principal balance by tiers at June 30, 2020:

Balance Tier	# of Loans	Gross Balance		Weighted average fee		Net Fees		Net Balance

PPP Liquidity Facility. On April 14, 2020, the Company was approved by the Federal Reserve to access its SBA Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF"). The PPPLF enables the Company to fund PPP loans without taking on additional liquidity or funding risks by providing non-recourse loans collateralized by the PPP loans. Borrowings under the PPPLF have a fixed-rate of 0.35%, with a term that matches the underlying loans pledged of two years. At June 30, 2020, the Company borrowed $179.1 million under the PPPLF with a fixed-rate of 0.35% and pledged PPP loans as collateral to secure the borrowings.

Impacts from COVID-19:

The ongoing COVID-19 global and national health emergency has caused significant disruption in the international and United States economies and financial markets and has had an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the state government of California has taken preventative or protective actions which have resulted in significant adverse effects for many different types of businesses, including, among others, those in the travel, hospitality and food and beverage industries, and have resulted in a significant number of layoffs and furloughs of employees nationwide and in the regions in which we operate. Because we have not recently experienced a comparable crisis which resulted in, among other things, the complete cessation of operations for entire industries in our portfolio, our ability to be predictive is uncertain. In addition, the magnitude, duration and speed of the global pandemic is uncertain. As a consequence, we cannot estimate the impact on our business, financial condition or near- or longer-term financial or operational results with reasonable certainty. In light of this uncertainty and the resulting imprecision in our estimation, we are disclosing potentially material items of which we are aware at July 16, 2020.

Net interest income and net interest margin. The Federal Reserve’s 150 basis point reduction in interest rates in March 2020 negatively impacted our net interest income and net interest margin during the second quarter of 2020, and will put further pressure on the net interest margin for the remainder of 2020. We have proactively worked to lower interest expense by lowering deposit rates and taking advantage of lower interest rate borrowing facilities. Participation in the PPP had a significant impact on our asset mix and net interest income in the second quarter of 2020 and will continue to impact both asset mix and net interest income for the remainder of 2020. These loans contributed $1.9 million to interest income for the second quarter of 2020. The weighted average loan yield for PPP loans was 2.64%, which lowered the total loan yield by 46 basis points for the second quarter of 2020. We anticipate the accelerated unearned fee income as PPP loans payoff or are forgiven will partially offset the decrease in interest income due to the lower interest rates.

Provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses in the first and second quarter of 2020 was negatively impacted by an increase in qualitative factors related to COVID-19 and macro-economic conditions, in addition to loan growth. While the economy gradually reopened during the second quarter of 2020, the Governor of California has since implemented further restrictions and the timing of an economic recovery remains uncertain. The assumptions underlying the COVID-19 related qualitative factors included (a) uncertain and volatile macroeconomic conditions caused by the pandemic; (b) the high unemployment rate; and (c) the loan deferment program. Approximately $1.4 million of the second quarter provision was driven by an increase in these qualitative factors. In addition, a reserve of $138 thousand for accrued interest receivable related to loans on deferment was recognized in the second quarter of 2020. No provision for loan losses on PPP loans was recognized in the second quarter of 2020 as the SBA guarantees 100% of loans funded under the programs.

Loans to the hospitality industry. At June 30, 2020, our total loan commitments to the hospitality industry was $235 million, of which $212 million was outstanding, representing 11.4% of total loans including loans held for sale, and loans held for investment net of discount and deferred fees. The total outstanding balance consisted of $93 million CRE, $11 million C&I, $48 million Construction and Land and $60 million SBA, of which $32 million were SBA PPP. At June 30, 2020, non-accrual loans totaled $85 thousand. As of June 30, 2020, the total balance of loans on deferment was $100 million. As of July 16, 2020, a balance of $86 million of loans on deferment resumed regular payment, and there were no loans to the hospitality industry granted an additional 90-day deferment. The remainder is expected to resume payments as scheduled.

Loans to the restaurant industry. At June 30, 2020, our total loan commitments to the restaurant industry was $95 million, of which $92 million was outstanding, representing 5.0% of total loans including loans held for sale, and loans held for investment net of discount and deferred fees. The total outstanding balance consisted of $7 million CRE, $16 million C&I, $69 million SBA, of which $51 million were SBA PPP. At June 30, 2020, non-accrual loans totaled $2 million, and no loans were downgraded during the 2nd quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the total balance of restaurant loans on deferment was $34 million. As of July 16 2020, a balance of $17 million of loans on deferment resumed regular payment, and one SBA 504 loan of $8 million was granted an additional 90-day deferral. The remainder is expected to resume payments as scheduled.

Capital and liquidity. The Bank opted into the CBLR framework in the first quarter of 2020 and, because the Bank's CBLR was 10.31% as of June 30, 2020, we exceeded the reduced regulatory minimum required of 8%, and were considered "well-capitalized" at June 30, 2020. The Bank's primary and secondary liquidity sources were over $900 million at June 30, 2020.

Highlights for the Second Quarter of 2020:

•Net income of $5.7 million, up 26.0% over Q1'20

•Diluted earnings per common share of $0.49, up 25.6% over Q1'20

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

  The following tables present a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures for: (1) efficiency ratio, (2) pre-tax pre-provision income; (3) average tangible common equity, (4) return on average tangible common equity, (5) tangible common equity, (6) tangible assets, (7) tangible common equity to tangible asset ratio, and (8) tangible book value per share. We believe the presentation of certain non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to assess our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations and to assist investors in evaluating our financial results relative to our peers. These non-GAAP financial measures complement our GAAP reporting and are presented below to provide investors and others with information that we use to manage the business each period. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and should not be considered a substitute of the GAAP measures.

Results of Operations

In addition to net income, the primary factors we use to evaluate and manage our results of operations include net interest income, provision for loan losses, noninterest income and noninterest expense.

Net Interest Income

        Net interest income is affected by changes in both interest rates and the volume of average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following tables summarize the distribution of average assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity, as well as interest income and yields earned on average interest-earning assets and interest expense and rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated:

Rate/Volume Analysis

        The volume and interest rate variance tables below set forth the dollar difference in interest earned for each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated, and the amount of such change attributable to changes in average balances (volume) or in average interest rates (rate). Volume variances are equal to the increase or decrease in the average balance multiplied by the prior period rate, and rate variances are equal to the increase or decrease in the average rate multiplied by the prior period average balance. Variances attributable to both rate and volume changes are allocated proportionately based on the amounts of the individual rate and volume changes.

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to First Quarter of 2020

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2020 totaled $20.3 million, an increase of $1.1 million from the first quarter of 2020 due to slightly higher interest income of $100 thousand, coupled with lower interest expense of $1.0 million. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to interest income and fees recognized for PPP loans and reductions in the costs of interest-bearing deposits and borrowings. The decrease in loan yields and cost of funds for the second quarter of 2020 reflected the full quarter impact of the 150 basis point reduction in the target Federal Funds rate at the end of March 2020. Average loans increased by $333.5 million, of which $287.3 million was from PPP loans, net of earned fees, funded in the second quarter of 2020. PPP loans carry a fixed rate of 1.0% with a two-year contractual maturity, and the weighted average rate for the processing fee is 3.16%. These loans contributed $1.9 million to interest income for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in interest expense for the second quarter of 2020 was due primarily to lower market interest rates and the Company's proactive strategy to lower the cost of interest-bearing customer deposits, replace high rate brokered deposits and take advantage of the lower cost of borrowings and wholesale funding facilities. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits

decreased $930 thousand, coupled with a decrease of $101 thousand on total borrowings. Interest expense on the PPP Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF") was $112 thousand for the second quarter of 2020.

Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2020 decreased 66 basis points to 4.12% from 4.78% for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in the net interest margin was due primarily to a 101 basis point decrease in loan yields (including fees and discounts), partially offset by a change in the interest-earning asset mix, and a 38 basis point decrease in funding costs. The decrease in the interest-earning assets yield and loan yield were driven by the lower market interest rates and the lower-yielding PPP loans. The yield on loans decreased to 4.94% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 5.95% for the first quarter of 2020. The weighted average loan yield for PPP loans was 2.64%, which lowered the total loan yield by 46 basis points for the second quarter of 2020.

The cost of funds decreased to 0.34% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 0.72% for the first quarter of 2020, due primarily to lower market interest rates and a change in the funding mix with a higher percentage of average noninterest-bearing demand deposits, and a higher percentage of average total borrowings. Average borrowings increased $53.3 million to $145.4 million, coupled with an increase of $128.0 million from the PPPLF with an average rate of 0.35% to support the PPP loans funded. The average cost of borrowings decreased 110 basis points to 0.54% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 1.64% for the first quarter of 2020. Average senior secured notes decreased $1.3 million to $6.8 million and the average cost of such borrowings decreased 117 basis points to 3.39%. Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $151.4 million to $783.3 million and represented 50.7% of total average deposits for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $631.8 million, or 47.0% of total average deposits, for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in average noninterest-bearing demand deposits was primarily due to new accounts opened for PPP loans with an average balance of $116 million for the second quarter of 2020. The total cost of deposits decreased 32 basis points to 0.31% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 0.63% for the first quarter of 2020.

The discount accretion from loans acquired in a business combination of $421 thousand contributed 9 basis points to the net interest margin in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $624 thousand and 16 basis points in the first quarter of 2020.

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to Second Quarter of 2019

        Net interest income increased $1.5 million to $20.3 million for the second quarter of 2020 when compared to the same quarter of 2019 primarily due to a slight decrease of interest income of $375 thousand, offset by lower interest expense of $1.8 million. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to interest income and fees recognized for organic loan growth and PPP loans funded in the second quarter of 2020, and reductions in the costs of interest-bearing deposits and borrowings. The decrease in loan yields and cost of funds for the second quarter of 2020 primarily related to the 150 basis point reduction in the target Federal Funds rate at the end of March 2020. Average loans increased by $404.0 million, of which $287.3 million was from PPP loans, net of earned fees, funded in the second quarter of 2020, contributing an increase in interest income of $5.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of $221 thousand in discount accretion on loans acquired in a business combination, and lower market interest rates in the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in interest expense for the second quarter of 2020 was due primarily to lower market interest rates and our proactive strategy to lower the cost of interest-bearing customer deposits, coupled with a decrease in borrowing costs from higher average borrowings to support organic loan growth and PPP loan fundings. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased $1.5 million, coupled

50

with a decrease of $412 thousand on borrowings and senior secured notes, partially offset by an increase of $112 thousand on PPPLF.

        Our net interest margin decreased 102 basis points to 4.12% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 5.14% for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease in the net interest margin was due primarily to a 148 basis point decrease in loan yields (including fees and discounts), partially offset by a change in the interest-earning asset mix and a 69 basis point decrease in funding costs. The net interest margin compression was driven by lower market interest rates resulting from the Federal Reserve's 225 basis point reduction in the target Federal Funds rate after the second quarter of 2019. The average effective federal funds target rate was 0.06% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 2.40% for the same quarter of 2019. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased 163 basis points to 4.43% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 6.06% for the same quarter of 2019 due mostly to lower loan yields. Our loan yield decreased 148 basis points to 4.94% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 6.42% for the same quarter of 2019, was driven by lower market interest rates, lower-yielding PPP loans, and lower discount accretion from loans acquired in a business combination.

        The discount accretion related to loans acquired in a business combination, including the interest income recognized on the payoff of PCI loans, of $421 thousand contributed 9 basis points to the net interest margin in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $642 thousand and 18 basis points in the same quarter of 2019.

        Our average cost of funds decreased 69 basis points to 0.34% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 1.03% for the same quarter of 2019 due to a lower market interest rates and a change in the funding mix with a higher percentage of average noninterest-bearing demand deposits, and a higher percentage of average total borrowings. Average noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $783.3 million and represented 50.7% of average total deposits for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $534.2 million and 43.6% of average total deposits for the same quarter of 2019. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $1.04 billion during the second quarter of 2020 compared to $780.0 million for the same quarter of 2019. Our cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 115 basis points to 0.59% compared to 1.74% for the same quarter of 2019. The average borrowings increased $68.0 million to $145.4 million, coupled with an increase of $128.0 million in average PPPLF. The average cost of borrowings decreased 197 basis points to 0.54%, partially offset by 35 basis points increase from the PPPLF. Average senior secured notes balance decreased $5.6 million to $6.8 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $12.4 million for the same quarter of 2019 and the average cost of such borrowings decreased 250 basis points to 3.39%.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Net interest income increased $1.4 million to $39.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to a slight decrease of interest income of $470 thousand, offset by a lower interest expense of $1.9 million. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to a number of factors (i) higher average loans and other interest earning assets offset by lower market interest rates, (ii) higher noninterest-bearing demand deposits in relationship to total deposits, and (iii) lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities. Average loans increased by $263.8 million contributing an increase in interest income of $7.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in discount accretion on loans acquired in a business combination, and lower market interest rates in the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. PPP loans averaged $143.6 million and contributed $1.9 million to interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was due primarily to lower market interest rates, coupled with a decrease in funding costs, partially offset by higher average borrowings to support organic loan growth and PPP loan fundings. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased $1.7 million, coupled with a decrease of $348 thousand on borrowings and senior secured notes, offset by an increase of $112 thousand on PPPLF.

        Our net interest margin decreased 90 basis points to 4.42% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 5.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the net interest margin was due primarily to a 128 basis point decrease in interest-earnings asset yields, of which loan yields (including fees and discounts) decreased 113 basis points, partially offset by a change in the interest-earning asset mix, and a 43 basis points decrease in funding costs. The net interest margin compression was driven by lower market interest rates resulting from the reduction in the target Federal Funds rate. The average effective federal funds target rate was 0.64% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 2.40% for the same 2019 period. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 4.88% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 6.16% for the same 2019 period resulting from lower market interest rates. Our loan yield decreased to 5.39%

51

for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 6.52% for the same 2019 period, driven by lower market interest rates, lower-yielding PPP loans, and lower discount accretion from loans acquired in a business combination.

        The discount accretion related to loans acquired in a business combination, including the interest income recognized on the payoff of PCI loans, of $1.0 million contributed 12 basis points to the net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1.6 million and 22 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

        Our average cost of funds decreased 43 basis points to 0.51% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.94% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to a lower market interest rates and a change in the funding mix with a higher percentage of average noninterest-bearing demand deposits, and a higher percentage of average total borrowings. Average noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $707.5 million and represented 49.0% of average total deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $548.0 million and 44.9% of average total deposits for the same 2019 period. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $927.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $742.4 million for the same 2019 period. Our cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 75 basis points to 0.89% compared to 1.64% for the same 2019 period. Our average borrowings increased $62.1 million to $119.0 million, coupled with an increase of $63.8 million from the average PPPLF. The average cost of borrowings decreased 156 basis points to 0.97%. Average senior secured notes balance decreased $4.8 million to $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $12.2 million for the same 2019 period.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2020 was $2.1 million, compared to $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2020 and $550 thousand for the second quarter of 2019. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $4.8 million, an increase of $3.9 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 over the comparable periods in the prior year was primarily related to an increase in qualitative loss factors related to COVID-19 and loan growth. Approximately $1.4 million and $3.3 million of provision for the second quarter of 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven mostly by an increase in qualitative factors relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and macro-economic conditions. The assumptions underlying the COVID-19 related qualitative factors included (a) uncertain and volatile macroeconomic conditions caused by the pandemic; (b) the high unemployment rate; and (c) the loan deferment program. Loans held for investment, excluding PPP loans, increased to $1.44 billion at June 30, 2020 as compared to $1.37 billion at June 30, 2019. No provision for loan losses on PPP loans was recognized in the second quarter of 2020 as the SBA guarantees 100% of loans funded under the program.

Noninterest Income

        The following table shows the components of noninterest income for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended June 30,
	June 30, 2020		March 31, 2020		June 30, 2019		2020		2019
	(dollars in thousands)
Gain on sale of loans	$	—	$	377	$	1,271	$	377	$	2,199
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts	447		555		564		1,002		1,104
Net servicing (costs) fees	(9)		224		287		215		521

Total noninterest income	$	1,055	$	1,415	$	2,322	$	2,470	$	4,444

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to First Quarter of 2020

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2020 was $1.1 million, a decrease of $360 thousand from $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2020 due primarily to lower gains on loan sales of $377 thousand and lower net servicing fees of $233

52

thousand, partially offset by higher other income of $358 thousand. There were no loans sold during the second quarter of 2020, compared to $3.4 million in loans sold and a gain on sale of $377 thousand in the first quarter of 2020.

The $233 thousand decrease in net servicing fees was due primarily to higher amortization from early loan pay-offs which totaled $277 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $69 thousand for the first quarter of 2020. Other income was $617 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $259 thousand for the first quarter of 2020. Gains, included in other income, on transfer of loan collateral to foreclosed assets of $153 thousand were recognized for the second quarter of 2020. There was no similar income in the first quarter of 2020. Other income for the second quarter of 2020 also included a Bank Enterprise Award of $233 thousand from the U.S.Treasury’s Community Development Financial Institutions Fund to recognize the Bank for providing small business loans or commercial real estate development loans to businesses located in distressed communities. There was no similar income in the first quarter of 2020.

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to Second Quarter of 2019

        Noninterest income decreased $1.3 million to $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $2.3 million for the same quarter of 2019 due primarily to lower gain on sale of loans and lower net servicing fees, partially offset by higher other income. The $1.3 million decrease in gain on sale of loans for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter of 2019 is due to a lower volume of loans sold. There were no loans sold during the second quarter of 2020, compared to $16.4 million in loans sold, resulting in a gain of $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2019.

        Net servicing fees decreased $296 thousand due to slightly lower contractual servicing fees and higher amortization expense of the related servicing asset in the second quarter of 2020. Our SBA loan servicing portfolio averaged $201.5 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $210.6 million for the same quarter of 2019. During the second quarter of 2020 and 2019, contractually-specified servicing fees were $463 thousand and $493 thousand, offset by the amortization of the servicing asset of $472 thousand and $206 thousand. The increase in amortization of the servicing asset was due to a higher level of early loan pay-offs in the current quarter as compared to the same quarter of 2019. Amortization expense related to early loan pay-offs totaled $277 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $69 thousand for the same quarter of 2019.

        Other income was $617 thousand for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $200 thousand for the same quarter of 2019. The increase of $417 thousand primarily related to gains on transfer of loan collateral to foreclosed assets of $153 thousand and a CDFI Bank Enterprise Award ("BEA") of $233 thousand recognized in the second quarter of 2020. There was no similar income in the second quarter of 2019.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Noninterest income decreased $2.0 million to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $4.4 million for the same period of 2019 due primarily to lower gain on sale of loans and lower net servicing fees, partially offset by higher other income. The $1.8 million decrease in gain on sale of loans for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period of 2019 is due to a lower volume of loans sold. Loans sold during the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $3.4 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $377 thousand, compared to $35.0 million in loans sold, resulting in a gain on sale of $2.2 million.

        Net servicing fees decreased due to a slightly higher contractual servicing fees, offset by higher amortization expense of the related servicing asset in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our SBA loan servicing portfolio averaged $208.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $204.2 million for the same period of 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, contractually-specified servicing fees were $969 thousand and $938 thousand, offset by the amortization of the servicing asset of $754 thousand and $417 thousand. The increase in amortization of the servicing asset was due to the higher portfolio of serviced loans, coupled with a higher level of early loan pay-offs in the current period. Amortization expense related to early loan pay-offs totaled $346 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $161 thousand for the same period of 2019.

Other income was $876 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $620 thousand for the same period of 2019. The increase of $256 thousand primarily related to gains on transfer of loan collateral to foreclosed assets of

53

$153 thousand and higher rental income of $165 thousand for a sublease in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period of 2019.

Noninterest Expense

The following table shows the components of noninterest expense for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended									Six Months Ended June 30,

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to First Quarter of 2020

Noninterest expense decreased $419 thousand to $11.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 from $11.5 million for the first quarter of 2020. This decrease was due primarily to lower salaries and employee benefit expenses, lower loan related expenses and lower customer service related expenses, offset partially by higher data processing, FDIC assessment fees and other expenses.

The $844 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits was due to lower incentive accruals resulting from a decrease in organic loan production in the second quarter of 2020, higher deferred loan origination cost for the PPP loans, and lower payroll taxes and employee benefits resulting from a seasonally higher first quarter. The $49 thousand decrease in loan related expenses was due primarily to a recovery of expenses in the second quarter of 2020. The $44 thousand decrease in customer service related expenses was due primarily to lower average demand deposits for certain deposit accounts during the second quarter of 2020.

The $137 thousand increase in FDIC assessment fees was due to Small Bank Assessment Credits received in the first quarter of 2020 for which there are no further credits. The increase in other expenses related primarily to a $300 thousand increase in the provision for unfunded loan commitments resulting from an increase in unfunded loan commitments and historical loss rates.

The efficiency ratio remained favorable at 52.0% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 56.0% in the first quarter of 2020. The lower efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2020 was driven by higher revenue including the benefits of the PPP loan volume.

Second Quarter of 2020 Compared to Second Quarter of 2019

        Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2020 increased $495 thousand from $10.6 million for the same quarter of 2019. The increase was due to higher occupancy and equipment expense, data processing expense, loan related expense, partially offset by lower salaries and employee benefits expense.

54

The $471 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits was due mostly to an increase in deferred loan origination costs for the PPP loans originated during the second quarter of 2020.

The $121 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment expense was due to higher depreciation expense for fixed assets and accrued expenses for asset retirement obligations in the second quarter of 2020. The $235 thousand increase in data processing expenses was due to increases in transaction volumes from organic growth and enhancing automation such as online account opening solutions, coupled with higher software amortization of new and upgraded technology. The $155 thousand increase in loan related expenses was due primarily to expense incurred for the roll-out of PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020.

The efficiency ratio remained stable at 52.0% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 50.1% in the second quarter of 2019. The higher efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2020 was driven by higher noninterest expense.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1.3 million to $22.6 million from $21.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was due to higher salaries and employee benefits, data processing, loan related expense, and other expenses, partially offset by lower occupancy and equipment expense.

The $536 thousand increase in salaries and employee benefits was due mostly to annual merit increases, higher overtime expense for the roll-out of PPP loans, higher incentives, partially offset by increased deferred loan origination costs for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The $438 thousand increase in data processing expenses was due to increases in transaction volumes from organic growth and enhancing automation such as online account opening solutions, coupled with higher software amortization of new and upgraded technology. The $216 thousand increase in loan related expense was due to expense incurred for the roll-out of PPP loans. The $386 thousand increase in other expense related primarily to a $300 thousand increase in the provision for unfunded loan commitments resulting from an increase in unfunded loan commitments and historical loss rates.

Occupancy and equipment expense decreased by $245 thousand due primarily to a $400 thousand impairment charge in the six months ended June 30, 2019 for the anticipated relocation and consolidation of branches in 2019. There was no impairment charge in 2020, partially offset by $84 thousand accrued expenses for asset retirement obligations recognized in 2020.

The efficiency ratio remained stable at 53.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 50.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The higher efficiency ratio in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was driven by higher noninterest expense and lower revenues.

Income Taxes

        Income tax expense was $2.4 million, $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019. The effective tax rates were 29.8%, 28.6% and 31.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, income tax expense was $4.3 million and $6.4 million and the effective tax rates were 29.3% and 31.8%. The difference in our effective tax rate compared to the statutory rate of 29.5% for the respective reporting periods was primarily attributable to the impact of the vesting and exercise of equity awards combined with changes in the Company's stock price over time.

Financial Condition

        Total assets increased $447.9 million during the second quarter of 2020 to $2.22 billion at June 30, 2020 from $1.78 billion at March 31, 2020. This increase is due mostly to a $44.3 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, a $6.7 million increase in loans held for sale, a $393.6 million increase in loans held for investment, including PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $389.2 million, an $8.1 million increase in accrued interest receivable primarily related to loans on a deferred payment program, a $602 thousand increase in net foreclosed assets, partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in investment

55

securities, $1.6 million increase in the allowance for loan losses and $1.8 million decrease in other assets. Total liabilities increased $444.3 million during the second quarter of 2020 to $1.96 billion at June 30, 2020 from $1.51 billion at March 31, 2020. This increase is due mostly to a $254.0 million increase in total deposits, a $10.0 million increase in borrowings, a $179.1 million increase in PPPLF, a $3.3 million increase in other liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in senior secured notes of $2.1 million.

Since December 31, 2019, total assets have increased $533.3 million due mostly to a $456.9 million increase in loans held for investment, including PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $389.2 million, to $1.83 billion at June 30, 2020, or an annualized growth rate of 10% without PPP loans. In addition, cash and cash equivalents increased $56.0 million, investment securities increased $6.8 million, loans held for sale increased $12.7 million, accrued interest receivable increased$8.4 million primarily related to loans on a deferred payment program, premises and equipment increased $1.0 million and net foreclosed assets increased $602 thousand, partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in allowance for loan losses, a $686 thousand decrease in servicing asset, and a $3.5 million decrease in other assets. Total liabilities at June 30, 2020 were $1.96 billion, an increase of $528.1 million, from $1.43 billion at December 31, 2019. Total deposits increased $291.3 million, borrowings increased $60.0 million, PPPLF increased $179.1 million, and other liabilities increased $806 thousand, partially offset by a decrease in senior secured notes of $3.1 million

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at the Federal Reserve and other banks, with original maturities of less than 90 days. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $217.8 million at June 30, 2020, an increase of $44.3 million from March 31, 2020 and $56.0 million from December 31, 2019. The increase in cash and cash equivalents during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to an increase in deposits and PPPLF to fund the PPP loans and maintain appropriate on balance sheet liquidity.

        At June 30, 2020, no issuer represented 10% or more of our shareholders’ equity. At June 30, 2020, securities held-to-maturity with a carrying amount of $1.7 million were pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank as collateral for a secured line of credit. There were no borrowings under this line of credit at June 30, 2020.

Loans

        Loans are the single largest contributor to our net income. It is our goal to continue to grow the balance sheet through the origination of loans, and to a lesser extent, through loan purchases. This effort will serve to maximize our yield on earning assets. We continue to manage our loan portfolio in accordance with what we believe are conservative and disciplined loan underwriting policies. Every effort is made to minimize credit risk, while tailoring loans to meet the needs of our target market. Our lending strategy emphasizes quality loan growth, product diversification, and competitive and profitable pricing.

 (1) SBA loans include PPP loans with total gross outstanding principal of $400.7 million at June 30, 2020.

(2) Loans held for investment, net of discounts includes the net carrying value of PCI loans of $1.0 million, $1.1 million and $1.1 million at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(3) Net deferred origination fees include $11.5 million for PPP loans at June 30, 2020.

(4) Allowance for loan losses includes $138 thousand of reserves for accrued interest receivable related to loans on a deferred payment program at June 30, 2020.

At June 30, 2020, loans held for investment totaled $1.83 billion, an increase of $393.6 million and $456.9 million from March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. During the second quarter of 2020 as compared to March 31, 2020, construction and land development loans decreased $15.4 million, commercial real estate loans ("CRE") increased $40.2 million, commercial and industrial ("C&I") loans decreased $14.7 million, SBA loans increased $399.4 million, and residential loans decreased $3.8 million. The diversification decreased in all categories, except for SBA loans at June 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019. The overall increase in loans held for investment at June 30, 2020 as compared to March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 primarily relates to PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $389.2 at June 30, 2020. The most significant categories in the loan portfolio are SBA, CRE (non-owner occupied) and commercial and industrial loans which represent 31.8%, 27.3% and 18.2% of total loans held for investment, net of discounts at June 30, 2020.

Being a preferred SBA lender, we participated in the PPP and funded a total of 1,886 loans with total gross loan outstanding balances of $400.7 million, or $389.2 million, net of unearned fees of $11.5 million at June 30, 2020. Borrowers who use the funds from their PPP loans to maintain payroll and pay for certain eligible non-payroll expenses may have up to 100% of their loans forgiven by the SBA. We expect a substantial majority of our PPP borrowers will apply for and receive approval for loan forgiveness in the second half of 2020. This expectation is subject to change due to borrower behavior, changing SBA requirements and processes relating to loan forgiveness and other relevant factors. Excluding the PPP loans, our SBA portfolio represents 12.9% of total loans held for investment, net of discounts at June 30, 2020.

Per the regulatory definition of commercial real estate, at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our concentration of such loans represented 307%, 316% and 314% of our total risk-based capital and were below our internal policy limit of 350% of our total risk-based capital. In addition, at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total loans secured by commercial real estate under construction and land development represented 94%, 102% and 125% of our total risk-based capital and were likewise below our internal policy of 150% of our total risk-based capital. Historically, we have managed loan concentrations by selling participations in, or whole loan sales of, certain loans, primarily commercial real estate and construction and land development loan production.

We have total loans to the hospitality industry (including construction, CRE, C&I and SBA loans) of $213.4 million, $181.6 million and $158.9 million at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Some of the members of our

58

Board of Directors are active in the hospitality sector, and therefore, are able to provide insights into the operations of the hotel properties. There are no loans to any of our board members or to members of their immediate families, but often to other hotel owners referred to us by these directors. We carefully manage our concentration and the levels of hospitality loans are measured against our total risk-based capital and reported to our Board of Directors regularly. Our internal guidance is to limit CRE and construction hospitality industry commitments to 150% and 75% of total risk-based capital, respectively. At June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total commitments to fund CRE loans to the hospitality industry represented 62%, 57% and 57% of our total risk-based capital. Total commitments to fund construction loans to the hospitality industry were 28% of our total risk-based capital at June 30, 2020, and 36% of our total risk-based capital at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Please refer to the Recent Developments COVID-19 Updates section for pandemic impacts relating to hospitality loans.

        We offer small business loans through the SBA 7(a) and 504 loan programs. The SBA 7(a) program provides up to a 75% guaranty for loans greater than $150,000, an 85% guaranty for loans $150,000 or less, and, in certain circumstances, up to a 90% guaranty. The maximum SBA 7(a) loan amount is $5 million, with the exception of CARES Act SBA PPP loans, which are limited to $10 million, and have a 100% guarantee. The guaranty is conditional and covers a portion of the risk of payment default by the borrower, but not the risk of improper closing and servicing by the lender. The SBA 504 program consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where we have the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property. Generally, we have a less than 50% loan to value ratio on SBA 504 program loans at origination.

Potential Problem Loans

Loans are considered delinquent when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more; delinquent loans may remain on accrual status between 30 days and 89 days past due. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans. Typically, the accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or when, in the opinion of management, there is a reasonable doubt as to collectability in the normal course of business. When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income.

Loan delinquencies (30-89 days past due) totaled $353 thousand, $2.3 million and $1.8 million at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Deferred payment loans which met the requirement under Section 4013 of the CARES Act are not considered past due or TDRs and are accruing interest as of June 30, 2020.

The following tables present the recorded investment balances of substandard loans, excluding PCI loans, by loan class at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	June 30, 2020

(1)At December 31, 2019, substandard loans included $11.3 million of impaired loans. There were no loans classified as special mention, doubtful or loss at December 31, 2019.

60

        Since year end, the decrease in the substandard loans was due to $821 thousand from upgrades, $756 thousand in charge-offs and $10.2 million in payoffs, and paydowns, offset by two loans from one relationship totaling $225 thousand being downgraded to substandard.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets, excluding PCI loans, are defined as nonperforming loans (accruing loans past due 90 days or more, non-accrual loans and non-accrual TDRs) plus other real estate owned and other assets acquired through foreclosure (“Foreclosed assets”). The balances of nonperforming loans reflect our net investment in these assets. The table below reflects the composition of non-performing assets at the periods indicated:

 (1) There were no purchased credit impaired loans on nonaccrual at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Since year end, the decrease in nonperforming loans was due mostly to $756 thousand in charge-offs, $2.6 million in payoffs and paydowns, offset by two loans from one relationship totaling $225 thousand being downgraded to substandard. There was one loan over 90 days past due that was still accruing interest at June 30, 2020. There were no loans over 90 days past due that were still accruing interest at March 31,2020 and December 31, 2019.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total recorded investment for loans identified as a TDR was approximately $469 thousand and $479 thousand. There were no specific reserves allocated for these loans and we have not committed to lend any additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as TDRs at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no new loan modifications resulting in TDRs. Loan modifications resulting in TDR status generally included one or a combination of the following concessions: extensions of the maturity date, principal payment deferments or signed forbearance agreements with a payment plan.

61

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand, $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modification.

COVID Related Loan Deferments

At June 30, 2020, the Company had 520 loans totaling $626 million, which included $11 million of loans held for sale, with a 90-day principal and/or interest deferral for COVID-related reasons. No deferred payment loans which met the requirement under Section 4013 of the CARES Act were reported as past due loans or troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") as of June 30, 2020. The Company currently expects that the majority of these loans will resume payments in the third quarter of 2020. Total accrued interest receivable related to these loans on deferment was $10 million with an aforementioned reserve of $138 thousand at June 30, 2020. Borrowers are contractually required to resume making full payments after the deferral period ends. We may grant additional 90-day deferments. As of July 16, 2020, 232 loans with a net carrying value of $397 million at June 30, 2020, or 63% of total loan balance, resumed making payments or paid off, and only four loans totaling $11 million were granted an additional 90-day deferment. The remainder is expected to resume payments as scheduled. Please refer to the Recent Developments COVID-19 Updates section for pandemic impacts relating to Payment Deferral Program.

Allowance for Loan losses

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the un-collectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off. Amounts are charged-off when available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof, are uncollectible. This methodology for determining charge-offs is consistently applied to each loan portfolio segment.

The Company determines a separate allowance for each loan portfolio segment. The allowance consists of specific and general reserves. Specific reserves relate to loans that are individually classified as impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting all amounts when due. Measurement of impairment is based on the expected future cash flows of an impaired loan, which are to be discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or measured by reference to an observable market value, if one exists, or the fair value of the collateral for a collateral-dependent loan. We select the measurement method on a loan-by-loan basis except that collateral-dependent loans for which foreclosure is probable are measured at the fair value of the collateral, less estimated selling costs.

General reserves cover non-impaired loans and are based on historical loss rates for each portfolio segment adjusted for the effects of qualitative or environmental factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses as of the evaluation date to differ from the portfolio segment’s historical loss experience. Qualitative factors include consideration of the following: changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in economic conditions; changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio; changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; changes in the volume and severity of past due, nonaccrual and other adversely graded loans; changes in the loan review system; changes in the value of the underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; concentrations of credit; and the effect of other external factors such as competition, COVID-19 pandemic and legal and regulatory requirements.

Portfolio segments identified by the Company include construction and land development, residential and commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, SBA loans, and consumer loans. Relevant risk characteristics for these portfolio segments generally include debt service coverage, loan-to-value ratios, collateral type, borrower financial performance, credit scores, and debt-to-income ratios for consumer loans.

62

In addition, the evaluation of the appropriate allowance for loan losses on non-PCI loans in the various loan segments considers discounts recorded as a part of the initial determination of the fair value of the loans. For these loans, no allowance for loan losses is recorded at the acquisition date. Interest and credit discounts are components of the initial fair value. Additional credit deterioration on acquired non-PCI loans, in excess of the remaining discounts are being recognized in the allowance through the provision for loan losses.

The evaluation of the appropriate allowance for loan losses for purchased credit-impaired loans in the various loan segments considers the expected cash flows to be collected from the borrower. These loans are initially recorded at fair value and, therefore, no allowance for loan losses is recorded at the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the expected cash flows of purchased loans are subject to evaluation. Decreases in expected cash flows are recognized by recording an allowance for loan losses with the related provision for loan losses. If the expected cash flows on the purchased loans increase, a previously recorded impairment allowance can be reversed. Increases in expected cash flows of purchased loans, when there are no reversals of previous impairment allowances, are recognized over the remaining life of the loans.

At June 30, 2020, we evaluated and considered the impacts relating to COVID-19 and macro-economic conditions on our qualitative factors. The assumptions underlying these qualitative factors included (a) uncertain and volatile macro-economic conditions caused by the pandemic; (b) the high unemployment rate; and (c) the loan deferment program. No

provision for loan losses on PPP loans was recognized in the second quarter of 2020 as the SBA guarantees 100% of loans

funded under the program.

At June 30, 2020, the allowance for loan losses, including $138 thousand for accrued interest receivable related to loans on deferment, was $17.8 million, or 0.97% of loans held for investment, compared to $13.5 million, or 0.98% of loans held for investment at December 31, 2019. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans held for investment without PPP loans was 1.24% at June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020, the net carrying value of acquired loans totaled $187.3 million and included a remaining net discount of $4.8 million. The discount is available to absorb losses on the acquired loans and represented 2.6% of the net carrying value of acquired loans and 0.26% of total gross loans held for investment.

Given the growth and the composition of our loan portfolio, as well as the unamortized discount on loans acquired, the ALLL was considered adequate to cover probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We will continue to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses for specific loans and the loan portfolio as a whole during the pandemic. Should any of the factors considered by management in evaluating the appropriate level of the ALLL change, our estimate of probable incurred loan losses could also change, which could affect the level of future provisions for loan losses. The table below presents a summary of activity in our allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated:

Loan Held for Sale

Loans held for sale typically consist of the guaranteed portion of SBA 7a loans that are originated and intended for sale in the secondary market and may also include commercial real estate loans and SBA 504 loans. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated market value. At June 30, 2020, loans held for sale were $20.3 million, an

increase of $6.7 million from $13.6 million at March 31, 2020 and an increase of $12.7 million from $7.7 million at December 31, 2019. The change in loans held for sale was due to the origination of $6.7 million in loans held for sale and there were no SBA loan sales during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The change in loans held for sale was due to the origination of the $15.1 million in loans held for sale, offset by the sale of loans with a carrying value of $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020.  In addition, there were no loans held for investment transferred to loans held for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $933 thousand of loans held for investment were transferred to loans held for sale during the six months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, loans held for sale consisted entirely of SBA 7a loans and the fair value of loans held for sale totaled $21.9 million and $8.4 million.

Servicing Asset and Loan Servicing Portfolio

        Loans serviced for others totaled $263.5 million and $278.6 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The loan servicing portfolio includes SBA loans serviced for others of $195.5 million and $214.8 million for which there is a related servicing asset of $2.5 million and $3.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The fair value of the servicing asset for SBA loans is measured quarterly and was $2.8 million and $3.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The significant assumptions used in the valuation of the SBA servicing asset at June 30, 2020 included discount rates, ranging from 6.1% to 44.7%, and a weighted average prepayment speed assumption of 21.4%.

        In addition, the loan servicing portfolio includes construction and land development loans, commercial real estate loans and commercial & industrial loans participated out to other institutions of $68.0 million and $63.8 million for which there is no related servicing asset at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

64

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

        As a result of the PCB acquisition completed on July 31, 2018, we recorded goodwill and a core deposit intangible ("CDI"), which total $73.4 million and $5.3 million at June 30, 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting volatility in our stock price during the first six months of 2020, the Company evaluated goodwill for impairment at June 30, 2020 and tested for impairment by comparing an estimated fair value of the Company to our book value. The fair value was estimated using the following two tests: (i) the recent deal price multiples were applied to tangible book value to compute the estimated fair value; and (ii) an “average price last twelve-month earnings” market transaction multiple was applied to the actual and forecasted 2020 earnings. Both tests resulted in the estimated fair value exceeding book value, and therefore, the Company did not recognize any impairment of goodwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we recognized CDI amortization of $193 thousand, $193 thousand and $197 thousand. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we recognized CDI amortization of $386 thousand and $393 thousand.

(1) Included brokered deposits of $3 thousand, $18.0 million and $33.0 million at June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(2) Included brokered deposits of $25.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $15.1 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

        During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, total deposits increased $254.0 million from the prior quarter and $291.3 million from year end to $1.60 billion at June 30, 2020 due to new noninterest-bearing deposit accounts opened for PPP loans, and strong core deposit growth. Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $789.8 million, an increase of $162.0 million and $163.2 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Approximately $82.9 million of the increase was due to new deposit accounts for PPP loans at June 30, 2020. The remaining increase was due to core deposit growth. Interest-bearing nonmaturity deposits increased $95.3 million and $106.4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to an increase in core deposits from the FDIC Insurance Program through Demand Deposit Marketplace ("DDM") and other financial institutions.

During three months ended June 30, 2020, time deposits had a slight decrease of $3.4 million due primarily to a decrease in customer time deposits, offset by higher brokered time deposits. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, time deposits had an increase of $21.8 million due primarily to an increase in brokered time deposits, partially offset by a decrease of retail time deposits related to maturities that were not renewed at our current offer rates. At June 30, 2020, brokered time deposits totaled $115.5 million, of which $78.6 million are callable in six months, compared to $95.6 million at March 31, 2020 and $50.4 million at December 31, 2019. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $789.8 million and represented 49.2% of total deposits at June 30, 2020, compared to $627.8 million and 46.5% of total deposits at March 31, 2020 and $626.6 million and 47.7% of total deposits at December 31, 2019.

65

Wholesale time deposits includes brokered time deposits and collateralized time deposits from the State of California. At June 30, 2020 brokered time deposits had a weighted average remaining maturity of 2.7 years. Collateralized time deposits from the State of California totaled $10.0 million at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020 and $25.1 million at December 31, 2019. These deposits are collateralized by letters of credit issued by the FHLB under the Bank's secured line of credit with the FHLB. Please refer to Note 7 - Deposits and Note 8 - Borrowing Arrangements to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Our ten largest depositor relationships accounted for approximately 30% and 28% of total deposits at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Federal Home Loan Bank Secured Line of Credit

        At June 30, 2020, the Bank had a secured line of credit of $424.3 million from the FHLB, of which $203.3 million was available. This secured borrowing arrangement is collateralized under a blanket lien and is subject to the Bank providing adequate collateral and continued compliance with the Advances and Security Agreement and other eligibility requirements established by the FHLB. At June 30, 2020, the Bank had pledged $1.23 billion of loans under a blanket lien, of which $834.4 million was considered as eligible collateral under this borrowing agreement. At June 30, 2020, the Bank also participated in the FHLB San Francisco's new Recovery Advance loan program for $10 million at zero percent interest at June 30, 2020 with maturity dates in November 2020 and May 2021.

In addition, at June 30, 2020, the Bank used $71.0 million of its secured FHLB borrowing capacity by having the FHLB issue letters of credit to meet collateral requirements for deposits from the State of California and other public agencies.

The average outstanding balance of total FHLB borrowings was $145.4 million and $75.9 million with an average interest rate of 0.54% and 2.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The average balance of total FHLB borrowings was $117.6 million and $55.6 million with an average interest rate of 0.98% and 2.53% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Federal Reserve Bank Secured Line of Credit

        At June 30, 2020, the Bank had a secured line of credit of $127.0 million from the Federal Reserve Bank. During the third quarter of 2019, the Bank expanded the existing secured borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve through the Borrower-in-Custody ("BIC") program. At June 30, 2020, the Bank had pledged qualifying loans with an unpaid principal balance of $212.8 million and securities held-to-maturity with a carrying value of $1.7 million as collateral for this line. Borrowings under this BIC program are overnight advances with interest chargeable at Federal Reserve discount window ("Primary Credit") borrowing rate. There were no borrowings under this credit facility at or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and there were no borrowings at December 31, 2019.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility

On April 14, 2020, the Bank was approved by the Federal Reserve to access its SBA Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF") through the discount window. The PPPLF enables the Company to fund PPP loans without taking on additional liquidity or funding risks by providing non-recourse loans collateralized by the PPP loans. Borrowings under the PPPLF have a fixed-rate of 0.35%, with a term that matches the underlying loans pledged of two years. The Bank pledged $173.7 million of PPP loans as eligible collateral under the PPPLF borrowing arrangement at June 30, 2020. The average outstanding borrowings were $128.0 million and $63.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Federal Funds Unsecured Lines of Credit

        The Bank has established unsecured overnight borrowing arrangements for an aggregate amount of $125.0 million, subject to availability, with five of its correspondent banks. In general, interest rates on these lines approximate the federal funds target rate. There were no borrowings under these credit facilities at or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and there were no borrowings at December 31, 2019. The average outstanding borrowings were $1.5 million and $1.3 million with an average interest rate of 2.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Senior Secured Notes

        The holding company has a senior secured revolving line of credit for $25 million, which matures on March 22, 2022. At June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance under this secured line of credit totaled $6.5 million with a floating interest rate equal to Wall Street Journal Prime, or 3.25%. At December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance totaled $9.6 million with

67

an interest rate of 5.00%. The average outstanding borrowings under this facility totaled $6.8 million and $12.4 million with an average interest rate of 3.39% and 5.89% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The average outstanding borrowings under this facility totaled $7.4 million and $12.2 million with an average interest rate of 4.03% and 5.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. At June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants on the facility and the remaining available credit was $18.5 million. One of our executives is also a member of the lending bank's board of directors.

Shareholders’ Equity

        Total shareholders’ equity increased $5.1 million to $266.9 million at June 30, 2020 from $261.8 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in shareholders' equity is primarily due to $10.3 million in net earnings, $1.0 million of share-based compensation, $85 thousand of stock options exercised and $645 thousand related to changes in the fair

value of investment securities, available-for-sale and the resulting impact on accumulated other comprehensive income,

partially offset by $5.8 million in cash dividends, and $1.0 million in stock repurchases during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to raise funds on a timely basis at an acceptable cost in order to meet cash needs. Adequate liquidity is necessary to handle fluctuations in deposit levels, to provide for client credit needs, and to take advantage of investment opportunities as they are presented in the market place. Although we believe that we currently have the ability to generate sufficient liquidity from our operating activities to meet our funding requirements, we may, in the future, need to acquire additional liquidity to fund our activities.

Holding Company Liquidity

        As a bank holding company, we currently have no significant assets other than our equity interest in the Bank. Our primary sources of liquidity at the holding company are dividends from the Bank, cash on hand at the holding company, which was approximately $447 thousand at June 30, 2020, a $25.0 million secured line of credit of which $18.5 million was available at June 30, 2020, and our ability to raise capital, issue subordinated debt, and secure other outside borrowings. The holding company's ability to declare and pay cash dividends to shareholders and repurchase our common stock depends upon cash on hand, availability on our senior secured revolving line of credit and dividends from the Bank. Dividends from the Bank to the holding company depend upon the Bank's earnings, financial position, regulatory standing, ability to meet current and anticipated regulatory capital requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. The Bank paid $10 million in dividends to the holding company during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Please refer to the section "— Regulatory Capital" for a discussion of dividend limitations at both the holding company and the Bank.

Consolidated Company Liquidity

Our liquidity ratio is defined as liquid assets (cash and due from banks, fed funds sold and repos, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, other investments with a remaining maturity of one year or less, available-for-sale and equity securities, unpledged held-to-maturity securities and fully funded loans held for sale) divided by total assets. At June 30, 2020, our liquidity ratio was 12.4%.

Our objective is to ensure adequate liquidity at all times by maintaining liquid assets, gathering deposits and

arranging for secondary sources of funding. Having too little liquidity can present difficulties in meeting commitments to

fund loans or honor deposit withdrawals. Having too much liquidity can result in lower income because highly liquid assets

are short-term in nature and generally yield less than long-term assets. A proper balance is the goal of management and the

Board of Directors, as administered by various policies and guidelines. Our policy targets a minimum daily liquidity ratio of 11.0%.

Additional sources of liquidity available to us at June 30, 2020 included $203.3 million in remaining secured borrowing capacity with the FHLB, $127.0 million in secured borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank through the Borrower-in-Custody Program ("BIC"), unsecured lines of credit with correspondent banks with a remaining borrowing

68

capacity of $125.0 million, and $221.5 million in PPPLF borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank through the Discount Window.

Since March 31, 2020, there was an increase in deposit balances due to the influx of funds from government stimulus, the PPP and other government actions. The Bank anticipates that these deposit balances will decline over time as the funds are used for intended business purposes; however, this deposit outflow should be partially offset as the associated PPP loans are forgiven and loan reimbursement is received.

        We believe that we will be able to meet our contractual obligations as they come due through the maintenance of adequate liquidity levels. We expect to maintain adequate liquidity levels through profitability, loan payoffs, securities repayments and maturities, and continued deposit gathering activities. We also have in place various borrowing mechanisms for both short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Stock Repurchase Plan

On December 3, 2018, we announced a stock repurchase plan, providing for the repurchase of up to 1.2 million shares, or approximately 10%, of our then outstanding shares (the "repurchase plan"). The repurchase plan permits shares to be repurchased in open market or private transactions, through block trades, and pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18. The repurchase plan may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of tentative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors management deems appropriate. These factors may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases. The repurchase plan does not obligate us to purchase any particular number of shares.

The Company suspended the stock repurchase program on March 17, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, there were no repurchases of common stock, compared to 38,411 shares of common stock repurchased at an average price of $22.34 and a total cost of $858 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2020. Since the plan was announced, we have repurchased a total of 504,511 shares at an average price of $21.70 per share. The remaining number of shares authorized to be repurchased under this program was 695,489 shares at June 30, 2020. Suspending the stock repurchase program allows the Company to preserve capital and provide liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic to meet the credit needs of the Company’s customers, as well as support small businesses and the local economies served by the Company through the Bank's lending and other important services.

Contractual Obligations

        The following table summarizes aggregated information about our outstanding contractual obligations and other long-term liabilities, excluding interest payments, at June 30, 2020.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded in our consolidated financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit,

69

interest rate and liquidity risk. These transactions generally take the form of loan commitments, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit.

At June 30, 2020, we had unused loan commitments of $386.5 million, standby letters of credit of $6.9 million and commitments to contribute capital to a low-income housing tax credit project partnership and other CRA equity investments of $1.4 million and $185 thousand. At December 31, 2019, we had unused loan commitments of $376.9 million, standby letters of credit of $7.6 million and commitments to contribute capital to a low-income housing tax credit project partnership and other CRA investments of $1.7 million and $236 thousand.

Regulatory Capital

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. 

At June 30, 2020, we qualify for treatment under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (Regulation Y, Appendix C) and, therefore, are not subject to consolidated capital rules at the bank holding company level. The Bank also opted into the CBLR framework beginning with the Call Report filed for the first quarter of 2020. At June 30, 2020, the Bank's CBLR ratio was 10.31% which exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under the CBLR framework and, accordingly, the Bank was considered to be ‘‘well-capitalized.’’

        Banks and their bank holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a leverage ratio (equal to tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets) of greater than 9%, will be eligible to opt into the CBLR framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9% will be considered to have satisfied the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules (generally applicable rule) and, if applicable, will be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Accordingly, a qualifying community banking organization that exceeds the 9% CBLR will be considered to have met: (i) the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements of the generally applicable capital rules; (ii) the capital ratio requirements in order to be considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework; and (iii) any other applicable capital or leverage requirements. A qualifying community banking organization that elects to be under the CBLR framework generally would be exempt from the current capital framework, including risk-based capital requirements and capital conservation buffer requirements. A banking organization meets the definition of a “qualifying community banking organization” if the organization has:

•A leverage ratio of greater than 9%;

•Total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion;

•Total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than sold credit derivatives and unconditionally cancelable commitments) of 25% or less of total consolidated assets; and

•Total trading assets plus trading liabilities of 5% or less of total consolidated assets.

Even though a banking organization meets the above-stated criteria, federal banking regulators have reserved the authority to disallow the use of the CBLR framework by a depository institution or depository institution holding company, based on the risk profile of the banking organization.

On April 6, 2020, the federal banking regulators, implementing the applicable provisions of the CARES Act, issued interim rules which modified the CBLR framework so that: (i) beginning in the second quarter 2020 and until the end of the year, a banking organization that has a leverage ratio of 8% or greater and meets certain other criteria may elect to use the CBLR framework; and (ii) community banking organizations will have until January 1, 2022, before the CBLR requirement is reestablished at greater than 9%. Under the interim rules, the minimum CBLR will be 8% beginning in the second quarter and for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The interim rules also maintain

70

a two-quarter grace period for a qualifying community banking organization whose leverage ratio falls no more than 1% below the applicable community bank leverage ratio. Assets originated under the PPP which are also pledged under the PPPLF are deducted from average total consolidated assets for purposes of the CBLR. However, such assets are included in total consolidated assets for purposes of determining the eligibility to elect the CBLR framework.

Dividends 

        Our general dividend policy is to pay cash dividends within the range of typical peer payout ratios, provided that such payments do not adversely affect our consolidated financial condition and are not overly restrictive to our growth capacity. While we have paid a consistent level of quarterly cash dividends since the first quarter of 2017, no assurance can be given that our financial performance in any given year will justify the continued payment of a certain level of cash dividend, or any cash dividend at all. During three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we declared cash dividends of $0.25 per share and $0.20 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we declared cash dividends of $0.50 per share and $0.40 per share.

The ability of the holding company and the Bank to pay dividends is limited by federal and state laws, regulations and policies of their respective banking regulators. California law allows a California corporation, such as the holding company, to pay dividends if retained earnings equal at least the amount of the proposed dividend. If a California corporation does not have sufficient retained earnings available for the proposed dividend, it may still pay a dividend to its shareholders if, immediately after the dividend, the value of its assets would equal or exceed the sum of its total liabilities. Policies of the Federal Reserve, our primary federal regulator, also limit the amount of dividends that bank holding companies may pay to income available over the past year, and only if prospective earnings retention is consistent with the institution's expected future needs and financial condition and consistent with the Federal Reserve's principle that bank holding companies should serve as a source of strength to their banking subsidiaries.

The holding company's primary source of funds is dividends from the Bank, as well as availability under our $25 million secured line of credit. Under the California Financial Code, the Bank is permitted to pay a dividend in the following circumstances: (i) without the consent of either the California Department of Business Oversight ("DBO") or the Bank's shareholders, in an amount not exceeding the lesser of (a) the retained earnings of the Bank; or (b) the net income of the Bank for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made during the prior period; (ii) with the prior approval of the DBO, in an amount not exceeding the greatest of: (x) the retained earnings of the Bank; (y) the net income of the Bank for its last fiscal year; or (z) the net income for the Bank for its current fiscal year; and (iii) with the prior approval of the DBO and the Bank's shareholders in connection with a reduction of its contributed capital. Further, as a Federal Reserve member bank, the Bank is prohibited from declaring or paying a dividend if the dividend would exceed the Bank's undivided profits as reportable on its Reports of Condition and Income in the absence of prior regulatory and shareholder approvals.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk, which is the risk of loss of net interest income or net interest margin resulting from changes in market interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk

        Interest rate risk results from the following risks:

•Repricing risk - timing differences in the repricing and maturity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities;

• Option risk - changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity;

•  Yield curve risk - changes in the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion; and

71

• Basis risk - changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Prime Rate and London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR").

        On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, publicly announced

that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. The announcement indicates that the

continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot be guaranteed after 2021. The market transition away from LIBOR to an

alternative reference rates is complex and could have a range of adverse effects on our business, consolidated financial

condition, and consolidated results of operations. For more information, refer to Part I, Item 1A - "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Although the manner and impact of the transition from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate, as well as the effect

of these developments on our funding costs, loan and investment and trading securities portfolios, asset-liability management,

and business, is uncertain, because the Bank does not have a material amount of LIBOR-based products and the Bank’s credit

documentation provides for the flexibility to move to alternative reference rates, our Management does not believe that the

discontinuation of LIBOR will have any material adverse impact on the Company.

        Since our earnings are primarily dependent on our ability to generate net interest income, we actively monitor and manage the effects of adverse changes in interest rates on our net interest income. Management of our interest rate risk is overseen by our Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”). ALCO ensures that we are following the appropriate and current regulatory guidance in the formulation and implementation of our interest rate risk program. Our Board of Directors review the results of our interest rate risk modeling quarterly to ensure that we have appropriately measured our interest rate risk, mitigated our exposures appropriately and any residual risk is acceptable. In addition, our Board of Directors reviews the interest rate risk policy, including pre-established risk management limits, at least annually.

        Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.

        Our consolidated balance sheet is considered “asset sensitive” when an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to expand our net interest margin, as rates earned on our interest-earning assets reprice higher at a pace faster than rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities. Conversely, our consolidated balance sheet is considered “liability sensitive” when an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to compress our net interest margin, as rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities reprice higher at a pace faster than rates earned on our interest-earning assets. At June 30, 2020, we were "asset sensitive".

        In order to model and evaluate interest rate risk, we use two approaches: Net Interest Income at Risk ("NII at Risk"), and Economic Value of Equity ("EVE"). Under NII at Risk, the impact on net interest income, measured over a 12-month time horizon, from changes in interest rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities is modeled utilizing various assumptions for assets, liabilities, and derivatives. EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. EVE is a period end measurement.

        The following table presents the projected changes in NII at Risk and EVE that would occur upon an immediate change in interest rates based on independent analysis, but without giving effect to any steps that management might take to counteract that change as of June 30, 2020:

72

	NII at Risk				EVE
	Adjusted Net Interest Income		Percentage Change from Base Case		Market Value		Percentage Change from Base Case

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and

procedures at June 30, 2020 and have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure

that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These

disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information

required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit is accumulated and communicated to management, including

the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required

disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 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

        In the normal course of business, we are named or threatened to be named as a defendant in various lawsuits. Management, following consultation with legal counsel, does not expect the ultimate disposition of any or a combination of these matters to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. However, given the nature, scope and complexity of the extensive legal and regulatory landscape applicable to our business (including laws and regulations governing consumer protection, fair lending, fair labor, privacy, information security and anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism laws), we, like all banking organizations, are subject to heightened legal and regulatory compliance and litigation risks.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We have described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”) the primary risks related to our business and securities and periodically update those risks. These risk factors were supplemented and updated in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 (the “2020 First Quarter Form 10-Q”) primarily to account for the risks relating to the novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. Provided below is an update to our risk factors as previously disclosed in the 2019 Form 10-K and as supplemented by the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2020 First Quarter Form 10-Q.

73

The novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic is adversely affecting us and our customers, employees and third-party service providers, and the adverse impacts on our business, financial position, operations and prospects have been and are expected to continue to be significant.

The spread of COVID-19 has created a global public health crisis that has resulted in unprecedented uncertainty, volatility and disruption in financial markets and in governmental, commercial and consumer activity in the United States and globally. Governmental responses to the pandemic have included orders closing businesses not deemed essential and directing individuals to restrict their movements, observe social distancing and shelter in place. These actions, together with responses to the pandemic by businesses and individuals, have resulted in rapid decreases in commercial and consumer activity, temporary closures of many businesses that have led to loss of revenues and a rapid increase in unemployment, material decreases in oil and gas prices and in business valuations, disrupted global supply chains, market downturns and volatility, changes in consumer behavior related to pandemic fears, related emergency response legislation and an expectation that Federal Reserve policy will maintain a low interest rate environment for the foreseeable future. These changes have a significant adverse effect on the markets in which we conduct our business and the demand for our products and services.

Business customers of the Bank are experiencing varying degrees of financial distress, which is expected to increase over the coming months as the pandemic and economic shutdown continues. Although certain federal and state relief programs may be available to assist borrowers, not all borrowers will qualify or, even if they do qualify, there may not be sufficient funds in the program that will be available to such borrowers at the time they do qualify.

For example, the Small Business Administration’s (the “SBA”) Procedural Notice 5000-20020, Implementation of Section 1112 of the CARES Act, Subsidy for Certain Loan Payments, directs the SBA to pay 6 months of principal, interest, and any associated fees that borrowers owe for all current 7(a), 504, and Microloans in regular servicing status as well as new 7(a), 504, and Microloans disbursed prior to September 27, 2020. There is no similar program for non-SBA loans. During this six-month period ended June 30, 2020, our lending officers have reached out to borrowers who qualify for this subsidy in order to gauge the impact of the COVID pandemic on their businesses, even while payments are being made by the SBA. Although as of June 30, 2020, none of these borrowers reported closing their doors permanently or intending to do so and none have filed for bankruptcy protection, many have been operating on a limited basis compared to their operations before the crisis started.

If the COVID-19 pandemic persists and/or government relief programs become unavailable or are ineffective in curtailing the economic and business impact of the pandemic, the ability of our borrowers to timely pay interest and principal on their loans and the value of the collateral securing their obligations may be materially impacted. This, in turn, could influence the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and increase our allowance for credit losses, particularly as businesses remain closed and as more customers are expected to draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. These developments as a consequence of the pandemic could materially impact our business and the businesses of our customers and could have a material adverse effect on our financial results for 2020.

In order to protect the health of our customers and employees, and to comply with applicable government directives, we have modified our business practices, including restricting employee travel, directing employees to work from home insofar as is possible, cancelling in-person meetings and implementing our business continuity plans and protocols to the extent necessary. We may take further such actions that we determine are in the best interest of our employees, customers and communities or as may be required by government order. These actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and similar actions by our vendors and business partners, have not materially impaired our ability to support our employees, conduct our business and serve our customers, but there is no assurance that these actions will be sufficient to successfully mitigate the risks presented by COVID-19 or that our ability to operate will not be materially affected going forward. For instance, our business operations may be disrupted if key personnel or significant portions of our employees are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. Similarly, if any of our vendors or business partners become unable to continue to provide their products and services, which we rely upon to maintain our day-to-day operations, our ability to serve our customers could be impacted.

COVID-19 does not yet appear to be contained and could affect significantly more households and businesses. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is not possible to accurately predict the extent, severity or duration of these conditions or when normal economic and operating conditions will resume. For this reason, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic affects our business, operations and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios and credit ratings, is highly uncertain and unpredictable and depends on, among other things, new information

74

that may emerge concerning the scope, duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other parties in response to the pandemic. If the pandemic is prolonged, the adverse impact on the markets in which we operate and on our business, operations and financial condition is likely to deepen.

Material risks relating to our business that are enhanced due to the COVID-19 pandemic are addressed at Item 1A Risk Factors in the 2019 Form 10-K under the headings:

•Difficult economic and market conditions may adversely affect our industry.

•Disruptions in the real estate market could materially and adversely affect our business.

•We could be liable for breaches of security in our online banking services. Fear of security breaches (including cybersecurity breaches) could limit the growth of our technology-driven products and services.

•Deteriorating credit quality has adversely impacted us in the past and may adversely impact us in the future.

•Our allowance for loan loss may not be adequate to cover actual losses.

•We have a concentration in loans secured by commercial real estate which could make us vulnerable to changes in the commercial real estate market.

•The repayment of our income property loans, consisting of non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans, may be dependent on factors outside our control or the control of our borrowers.

•Real estate construction loans are based upon estimates of costs and values associated with the completed project. These estimates may be inaccurate, and we may be exposed to significant losses on loans for these projects.

•We are or may become involved from time to time in information-gathering requests, investigations and litigation, regulatory or other enforcement proceedings by various governmental regulatory agencies and law enforcement authorities, as well as self-regulatory agencies which may lead to adverse consequences.

•We compete against larger banks and other institutions.

•Our accounting policies and processes are critical to how we report our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations. They require Management to make estimates about matters that are uncertain.

•We may be unable to, or choose not to, pay dividends on or repurchase our common stock.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

        The following table presents information relating to the repurchase of shares of common stock during the periods indicated:

Period	(a)  Total number of shares (or units) purchased (1)	(b)  Average price paid per share (or unit)		(c)  Total number of shares (or units) purchased as part of publicly announced plans or programs	(d) Maximum number of shares (or units) that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs (2) (3)
Apr 1 - 30, 2020	1,561	$	12.41	—	695,489
May 1 - 31, 2020	174	$	14.10	—	695,489
Jun 1 - 30, 2020	50	$	15.57	—	695,489
Total	1,785	$	12.66	—

(1) The total number of shares repurchased during the periods indicated include shares purchased as part of a publicly announced stock purchase plan and shares withheld for income tax purposes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock awards. The shares were purchased or otherwise valued at the closing price of our common stock on the dates of purchase and/or withholding.

(2) An authorized stock repurchase plan providing for the repurchase of up to 1.2 million shares of our outstanding common stock, or approximately 10% of our then outstanding shares, was publicly announced on December 3, 2018. The repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any particular number of shares.

(3) On March 17, 2020, the Company issued a press release announcing the suspension of the stock repurchase program in light of news reports indicating that members of Congress had voiced concerns about the practice of banks repurchasing shares during an

75

economic crisis. Suspending the stock repurchase program will allow the Company to preserve capital and provide liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic to meet the credit needs of the Company’s customers, as well as support small businesses and the local economies served by the Company through the Bank's lending and other important services.

Nature of Operations

        First Choice Bancorp, headquartered in Cerritos, California, is a California corporation that was incorporated on September 1, 2017 and is the registered bank holding company for First Choice Bank. Incorporated in March 2005 and commencing commercial bank operations in August 2005, First Choice Bank is a California-chartered member bank. First Choice Bank has a wholly-owned subsidiary, PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, that was part of the acquisition of Pacific Commerce Bank. PCB Real Estate Holding, LLC is used for holding other real estate owned and other assets acquired by foreclosure. References herein to “First Choice Bancorp,” “Bancorp” or the “holding company,” refer to First Choice Bancorp on a stand-alone basis. The words “we," "us," "our," or the "Company" refer to First Choice Bancorp, First Choice Bank and PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC collectively and on a consolidated basis. References to the “Bank” refer to First Choice Bank and PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC on a consolidated basis.

        Headquartered in Cerritos, California, the Bank is a community-based financial institution that serves commercial and consumer clients in diverse communities. The Bank specializes in loans to small- to medium-sized businesses and private banking clients, commercial and industrial loans, and commercial real estate loans with a specialization in providing financial solutions for the hospitality industry. The Bank is a Preferred Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Lender. The Bank conducts business through nine full-service branches and two loan production offices located in Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego Counties. Effective May 17, 2019, the Little Tokyo branch was closed and consolidated with the 6th and Figueroa branch located in downtown Los Angeles and the San Diego branch operations were consolidated into the Carlsbad branch. The San Diego location remains as a loan production office.

        As a California-chartered member bank, the Bank is primarily regulated by the California Department of Business Oversight (the “DBO”) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Bank’s deposits are insured up to the maximum legal limit by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”).

First Choice Bancorp's stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “FCBP.”

Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Choice Bancorp, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Choice Bank, and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for the interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These unaudited interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

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

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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 period. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change are the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of acquired loans, the valuation of goodwill and separately identifiable intangible assets associated with mergers and acquisitions, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Accounting Policies

The Company's accounting policies are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. They were disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under the section entitled "Summary of Critical Accounting Policies" in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the audited consolidated financial statements included therewith. Updates to our significant accounting policies are described below.

Guidance On Non-TDR Loan Modifications Due To COVID-19

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law. Section 4013 of the CARES Act, entitled "Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings," provides banks with the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") for the period beginning March 1, 2020 and ending on the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the date that is 60 days following the termination of the federal emergency declaration relating to the Coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic.

On April 7, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued a revised statement, entitled "Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working With Customers Affected by the Coronavirus ("Revised Statement"). The Revised Statement clarifies the accounting treatment of loan modifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (“ASC Subtopic 310-40”). To be an eligible loan under section 4013, a loan modification must be (1) related to COVID-19; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (B) December 31, 2020 (applicable period). Financial institutions that account for loans under Section 4013 are not required to apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 to these loans for the term of the loan modification and will not have to report these loans as TDRs in regulatory reports.

In addition, our banking regulators and other financial regulators issued a joint interagency statement titled the “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” on March 22, 2020 and revised April 7, 2020, that encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the interagency statement, loan modifications that do not meet the conditions of Section 4013 of the CARES Act may still qualify as a modification that does not need to be accounted for as a TDR. Specifically, the agencies confirmed with the staff of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that short-term modifications made in good faith in response to the pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs under GAAP. This includes short-term (e.g. six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or delays in payments that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. Appropriate allowances for loan and lease losses are expected to be maintained. With regard to loans not otherwise reportable as past due, financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to the pandemic as past due because of the deferral. The interagency statement also states that during short-term pandemic-related loan modifications, these loans generally should not be reported as nonaccrual.

For loan modifications that do not qualify for treatment under Section 4013 or ASC Subtopic 310-40, as clarified by the Revised Statement, financial institutions will be required to comply with existing accounting policies to determine whether the modification should be accounted for as a TDR.

The Company's initial loan deferral program provided a deferral of principal and/or interest-only payments for periods not exceeding 90-days for all loans that qualify under Section 4013 of the CARES Act. Loans qualifying for deferral

under this program continue to accrue interest during the deferral period and are not reported as past due loans or TDRs for the term of the deferral period. At the end of the deferral period, borrowers will be required to resume making regularly scheduled loan payments and the loans will be re-amortized over the remaining term. All payments received will be applied first to interest payments that were deferred during the deferral period, and then to interest and principal as provided under the terms of the loan. The Company may grant an extension of an additional 90-day deferments. The accrued interest will be reviewed to determine if a reserve for uncollectible interest is required.

 Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The primary objective of ASU 2018-13 was to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2018-15"). ASU 2018-15 aligned the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that was a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). ASU 2018-15 was effective on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the years of adoption although early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), also known as "CECL". This guidance will replace the incurred loss impairment methodology used to estimate the allowance for credit losses in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects future expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forecasts in the credit loss estimates. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, private companies and other non-SEC filers. The Company is considered a smaller reporting company. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. The Company is considering early adoption of ASU 2016-13 in 2021. Management has a cross functional committee in place to oversee the project, has selected a software to implement the new guidance using peer historical loss data, has engaged an existing third-party service provider to assist in implementation and has subscribed to a third-party application vendor for economic forecasts. The Company has completed data gap analyses, developed initial modeling assumptions, and run a high level sensitivity analysis. The Company expects to run parallel calculations, testing, and further sensitivity analysis in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test. Step 2 currently measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2017-04 for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company, as well as private companies and other non-SEC filers. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instrument (ASU 2019-05) which grants entities with transition relief upon the adoption of ASU

2016-13 by providing an option to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-05 to the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) which clarifies certain aspects of Topic 326 guidance issued in ASU 2016-13 including guidance providing transition relief for TDRs. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-11 to the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12) which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations, and interim calculations, and add guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years after December, 31, 2020. The Company plans to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (ASU 2020-04), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments are effective for contract modifications as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to the consolidated financial statements.

Effective April 27, 2020, the SEC amended the definitions of “accelerated” and “large accelerated filer” to exclude from those definitions registrants that are eligible to be treated as a smaller reporting company and that had annual revenues of less than $100 million in the most recent fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. Prior to these changes, the Company met the definition of an “accelerated filer" because the Company's public float was greater than $75 million but less than $700 million at the end of the Company’s most recent second quarter. The Company does not anticipate that it will qualify as an “accelerated filer” with respect to its annual report on form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2020 under these amended definitions. Whether an issuer qualifies as an “accelerated” or “large accelerated filer” or a “smaller reporting company” is determinative of whether the issuer is required to have their management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial report attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor, as required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Unlike “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filers, smaller reporting companies are not required to have independent auditor attestations of internal control over financial reporting, but remain obligated, among other things, to establish and maintain internal controls over financial reporting as required by SOX Section 404(a) and have management assess the effectiveness of these controls. In addition, smaller reporting companies also have additional time to file quarterly and annual financial statements.

Nevertheless, because the Bank’s total assets exceed $1.0 billion, the Bank is separately required by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") to have its management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Bank’s regulatory financial reporting attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor. Accordingly, the SEC’s amended definitions of “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filer do not materially impact the Company's annual reporting and audit requirements other than providing the Company with additional time to prepare and file its periodic reports required to be filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.

Investment securities have been classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheets according to management’s intent to either hold them to maturity or make them available for sale. The carrying amount of securities held-to-maturity and securities available-for-sale and their approximate fair values at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of all investment securities held-to-maturity and available-for-sale at June 30, 2020, by contractual maturities are shown below. Contractual maturities may differ from expected maturities because the obligors and/or issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

	Held to Maturity				Available for Sale
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value

(1) Mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and SBA pools do not have a single stated maturity date and, therefore, have been included in the "Due after ten years" category.

        At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer in an amount greater than 10% of our shareholders’ equity.

        At June 30, 2020, the Company had two investment securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position with total unrealized losses of $73 thousand. Such unrealized losses on these investment securities have not been recognized into income. The Company does not believe these unrealized losses are other-than-temporary because the issuers’ bonds are above investment grade, the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates, and management does not intend to sell these securities nor is it more likely than not that management would be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.

Equity Securities with a Readily Determinable Fair Value

        At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, equity securities with a readily determinable fair value of $2.8 million and $2.7 million were represented by a mutual fund investment consisting of high-quality debt securities and other debt instruments supporting domestic affordable housing and community development. The Company recognized net gains of $12 thousand, $42 thousand and $38 thousand related to changes in fair value during the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, all of which related to equity securities held during those periods. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized net gains of $54 thousand and $74 thousand related to changes in fair value.

Restricted Stock Investments

The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own FHLB stock of the greater of 1% of FHLB membership asset value or 2.7% of outstanding FHLB advances. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank owned $6.1 million of FHLB stock which is carried at cost. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no required purchases of FHLB stock. The Company evaluated the carrying value of our FHLB stock investment at June 30,

2020 and determined that it was not impaired. This evaluation considered the long-term nature of the investment, the current financial and liquidity position of the FHLB, repurchase activity of excess stock by the FHLB at its carrying value, the return on the investment from recurring and special dividends, and our intent and ability to hold this investment for a period of time sufficient to recover our recorded investment.

        As a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, the Bank owned $6.9 million of Federal Reserve stock, which is carried at cost, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There were no required purchases of Federal Reserve stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company purchased $13 thousand of Federal Reserve stock during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Bank purchased $60 thousand and $72 thousand of Federal Reserve stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company evaluated the carrying value of our Federal Reserve stock investment at June 30, 2020 and determined that it was not impaired. This evaluation considered the long-term nature of the investment, the current financial and liquidity position of the Federal Reserve, repurchase activity of excess stock by the Federal Reserve at its carrying value, the return on the investment from recurring dividends, and our intent and ability to hold this investment for a period of time sufficient to recover our recorded investment.

Other Equity Securities Without A Readily Determinable Fair Value

        The Company also has equity securities in the form of capital stock invested in two different banker’s bank stocks (collectively "Other Bank Stocks") which totaled $1.0 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and are reported in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company evaluated the carrying value of these equity securities and determined that they were not impaired, and no loss related to changes in the fair value of these equity securities was recognized.

The Company has an investment in Class A common stock of Clearinghouse Community Development Financial Institution ("CDFI") totaling $500 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Clearinghouse CDFI is a for-profit institution that is committed to provide economic opportunities and to improve the quality of life for low-income individuals and to improve the communities through innovative and affordable financing. The purpose of this investment, first and foremost, aligns with our mission statement as a community bank to help the underserved people in our communities, as well as to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, and to receive Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") lending credits. This equity security is recorded at cost and is included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not purchase additional securities.

This investment is recorded net of accumulated amortization, using the proportional amortization method. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is being amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received, and the amortization is being recognized as part of the income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income. Total estimated tax credits allocated and proportional amortization expense recognized were $26 thousand and $12 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Total estimated tax credits allocated and proportional amortization expense recognized were $44 thousand and $33 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net LIHTC investment totaled $555 thousand and $236 thousand. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made capital contributions of $325 thousand and $351 thousand. There were no capital contribution during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Receivables [Abstract]

LOANS

LOANS

The Company's loan portfolio consists primarily of loans to borrowers within our principal market area of Los Angeles County, Orange County and San Diego County, California. Although the Company seeks to avoid concentrations of loans to a single industry or based upon a single class of collateral, real estate and real estate associated businesses, such as

hospitality businesses, are among the principal industries in the Company's market area and, as a result, the Company's loan and collateral portfolios are, to some degree, concentrated in those industries. The Company also originates SBA loans either for sale to institutional investors or to hold in the loan portfolio. Loans identified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their net carrying value or market value and separately designated as such in the condensed consolidated financial statements. A portion of the Company's revenues are from origination and servicing of loans guaranteed by the SBA under its various programs and sale of the guaranteed portions of the loans. Funding for these loans depends on annual appropriations by the U.S. Congress.

Beginning in April of 2020, the Company participated in the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), administrated by the SBA, in assisting its borrowers with additional liquidity. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and carry a fixed rate of 1.00% with a two-year contractual maturity (loans originated before June 5, 2020) or five years (loans originated on or after June 5, 2020), if not forgiven. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. The Company was paid a processing fee from the SBA ranging from 1% to 5% based on the size of the loan. At June 30, 2020, PPP loans, net of unearned fees of $11.5 million, totaled $389.2 million and the weighted average rate for the processing fee was 3.16%. The unearned fees are being accreted to interest income based on the two-year contractual maturity. The Company anticipates that the SBA may forgive a significant number of PPP loans in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, at which point the recognition of fee income will be accelerated into interest income. On April 14, 2020, the Company was approved by the Federal Reserve to access its SBA Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF"). The PPPLF enables the Company to borrow funds through the Federal Reserve Discount Window to fund PPP loans. At June 30, 2020, the Company pledged $173.7 million of PPP loans as eligible collateral under the PPPLF borrowing arrangement. See Note 8 –Borrowing Arrangements for additional information regarding the PPPLF.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had pledged $1.23 billion of loans with the FHLB under a blanket lien, of which $834.4 million was considered as eligible collateral under this secured borrowing arrangement, and loans with an unpaid principal balance of $212.8 million were pledged as collateral under a secured borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve. See Note 8 –Borrowing Arrangements for additional information regarding the FHLB and Federal Reserve secured lines of credit.

        The loans held for investment portfolio includes originated and acquired loans. The acquired loans includes: (i) loans that were not credit impaired on the date of acquisition ("Non-PCI"); and (ii) purchased credit impaired ("PCI") loans, which are defined as loans with evidence of credit deterioration since their originations and for which it is probable that collection of all contractually required payments are unlikely as of the acquisition date.

The Company categorizes loans by risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, collateral adequacy, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis typically includes larger, non-homogeneous loans such as commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. This analysis is performed on an ongoing basis as new information is obtained. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass - Loans classified as pass represent assets with a level of credit quality which contain no well-defined deficiency or weakness.

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 institution’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 debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

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

Loss - Loans classified loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

The following tables present loans held for investment, net of discounts by loan class and risk category, excluding PCI loans, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

There were no specific reserves allocated for these loans and the Company had not committed to lend any additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as TDRs at June 30, 2020.

Loan modifications resulting in TDR status generally included one or a combination of the following concessions: extensions of the maturity date, principal payment deferments or signed forbearance agreements with a payment plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were no new loan modifications resulting in TDRs. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were no new loan modifications resulting in TDRs.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand, $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there was one loan in each period totaling $85 thousand and $95 thousand modified as a TDR for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modification.

COVID-Related Loan Deferments

At June 30, 2020, the Company had 520 loans totaling $626 million, which included $11 million of loans held for sale, with a 90-day principal and/or interest deferral for COVID-related reasons. No deferred payment loans which met the

requirement under Section 4013 of the CARES Act were reported as past due loans or troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") as of June 30, 2020. The Company currently expects that the majority of these loans will resume payments in the third quarter of 2020. Total accrued interest receivable related to these loans on deferment was $10 million with a reserve of $138 thousand at June 30, 2020. Borrowers are contractually required to resume making full payments after the deferral period ends. The Company may grant additional 90-day deferments.

Loans Held for Sale

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, loans held for sale consisted of SBA 7(a) loans and totaled $20.3 million and $7.7 million.

TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

        The Company sells loans in the secondary market and, for certain loans, retains the servicing responsibility. The loans serviced for others are accounted for as sales and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Loans serviced for others totaled $263.5 million and $278.6 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. This includes SBA loans serviced for others of $195.5 million at June 30, 2020 and $214.8 million at December 31, 2019 for which there is a related servicing asset of $2.5 million and $3.2 million. In addition, the loan servicing portfolio includes construction and land development loans, commercial real estate loans and commercial & industrial loans participated with various other institutions of $68.0 million and $63.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for which there is no related servicing asset.

        Consideration for each SBA loan sale includes the cash received and a related servicing asset. The Company receives servicing fees ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% for the services provided over the life of the loan. The servicing asset is based on the estimated fair value of these future cash flows to be collected. The risk inherent in the SBA servicing asset primarily relates to accelerated prepayment of loans in excess of what was originally modeled driven by changes in interest rates and a reduction in the estimated future cash flows.

        The servicing asset activity includes additions from loan sales with servicing retained and reductions from amortization as the serviced loans are repaid and servicing fees are earned. The SBA servicing asset activity is summarized for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Balance, end of period	$	2,516	$	3,482	$	2,516	$	3,482

The fair value of the servicing asset for SBA loans is measured quarterly and was $2.8 million and $3.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The significant assumptions used in the valuation of the SBA servicing asset at June 30, 2020 included discount rates, ranging from 6.1% to 44.7%, and a weighted average prepayment speed assumption of 21.4%.

The following table summarizes the estimated change in the value of servicing assets as of June 30, 2020 given hypothetical shifts in prepayments speeds and yield assumptions: 

	Change in Assumption	Change in Estimated Fair Value
		(dollars in thousands)
Prepayment speeds	+10%	$	(163)
Prepayment speeds	+20%	(310)
Discount rate	+1%	(66)
Discount rate	+2%	(129)

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 , there were no SBA loans sold. SBA loans sold totaled $16.4 million resulting in total gains on sale of SBA loans of $1.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, SBA loans sold totaled $3.4 million and $35.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total gains on sales of SBA loans were $377 thousand and $2.2 million.

Net servicing (costs) fees, a component of noninterest income, represent contractually specified servicing fees reported net of the servicing asset amortization. Net servicing (costs) fees totaled $(9) thousand and $287 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 including contractually specified servicing fees of $463 thousand and $493 thousand, offset by the amortization indicated in the table above. Net servicing fees totaled $215 thousand and $521 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, including contractually specified servicing fees of $969 thousand and $938 thousand, offset by the amortization indicated in the table above.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

        In connection with the acquisition of Pacific Commerce Bancorp ("PCB"), the Company recognized goodwill of $73.4 million and a core deposit intangible ("CDI") of $6.9 million on July 31, 2018. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting volatility in our stock price during the first six months of 2020, the Company evaluated goodwill for impairment at June 30, 2020 and tested for impairment by comparing an estimated fair value of the Company to our book value. The fair value was estimated using the following two tests: (i) recent acquisition price-to-tangible book multiples were applied to the Company's tangible book value to compute the estimated fair value; and (ii) an “average price to last twelve month earnings” market multiple was applied to: (i) the actual twelve months of earnings and (ii) forecasted fiscal year 2020 earnings. Both tests resulted in the estimated fair value exceeding book value, and therefore, the Company did not recognize any impairment of goodwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized the CDI amortization indicated in the table below.

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

        The Company accounts for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon temporary differences between the amounts for financial reporting purposes and tax basis of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets

decreased by approximately $334 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of changes to temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. This analysis is updated quarterly and adjusted as necessary. Based on this analysis, management has determined that a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not required at June 30, 2020.

        For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, income tax expense was $2.4 million and $3.2 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 29.8% and 31.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, income tax expense was $4.3 million and $6.4 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 29.3% and 31.8%. Our effective tax

rate is close to the statutory rate of 29.6% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and higher than the statutory rate during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 due to the tax effect of stock-based compensation.

  The Company is subject to federal income and California franchise tax. At June 30, 2020, the federal statute of limitations for the assessment of income tax is closed for all tax years up to and including 2015. The California statute of limitations for the assessment of franchise tax is closed for all years up to and including 2014. The Company is currently not under examination in any taxing jurisdiction.

        The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $113 thousand at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, primarily comprised of unrecognized tax benefits from tax positions taken in prior years. The total amount of tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective tax rate was $0 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. We expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to decrease by $113 thousand within the next six months due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes.

        The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense, and had accrued $23 thousand and $19 thousand of interest at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. No amounts for penalties were accrued at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

On June 29, 2020, the Assembly Bill No. 85 (AB 85) was signed into law by California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise additional income tax revenue to assist in balancing the California budget caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The most significant provision of this bill is the suspension of the net operating losses (NOL) deduction for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 and before January 1, 2023. The existing 20-year carry forward period for NOLs (10 years for losses incurred in the tax year 2000 through 2007) would be extended for up to three years if losses are not used due to the NOL suspension.

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act. Among other provisions, the CARES Act makes several modifications to federal net operating losses, including requiring a taxpayer with a net operating loss (“NOL”) arising in a taxable year beginning in 2018, 2019, or 2020 to carry that loss back to each of the five preceding years unless the taxpayer elects to waive or reduce the carryback. The Company did not generate NOLs in 2018 and 2019.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial commitments to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial commitments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk not recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. 

The Company's exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as the Company does for loans reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding financial commitments whose contractual amounts represent credit risk:

	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
	(dollars in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	386,509	$	376,879
Standby letters of credit	6,905		7,616
Commitments to contribute capital to low income housing projects	1,387		1,738
Commitments to contribute capital to other CRA equity investments	185		236
Total	$	394,986	$	386,469

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. The majority of the commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are secured by real estate. The provision for unfunded loan commitments was $300 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no provisions for unfunded loan commitments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The reserve for unfunded commitments was $1.5 million and $1.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The reserve for unfunded commitments is included in "other liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company committed to invest in a partnership that sponsors affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of this investment is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of additional affordable housing projects, and to assist in achieving goals associated with the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"). Capital contributions are called for up to an amount specified in the partnership agreement. In addition, the Company invested in other CRA investments such as the Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") program. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had unfunded commitments to contribute capital to LIHTC investments and other CRA investments totaling $1.6 million and $2.0 million.

In the normal course of business, the Company is named or threatened to be named as a defendant in various lawsuits. The Company is from time to time engaged in various litigation matters including the defense of claims of improper or fraudulent loan practices or lending violations, and other matters, and the Company has a number of unresolved claims pending. In addition, as part of the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to litigation involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the collection of delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral, and foreclosure interests that are incidental to our regular business activities. While the ultimate liability with respect to these other litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, the Company believes that damages, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not likely to be material to the condensed consolidated balance sheets or condensed consolidated statements of income.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed on a basic and diluted basis. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Basic shares outstanding exclude unvested shares of restricted stock and stock options. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shares in our earnings. The Company's unvested grants of restricted stock contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, which are required to be treated as participating securities and included in the computation of earnings per share.

The following is a reconciliation of net income and shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the asset or obligation could be exchanged (using an exit price notion) in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market value exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates are based on financial instruments both on and off the balance sheet without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial

instruments. Additionally, tax consequences related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant

effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates. The methods and assumptions used to

estimate the fair value of certain financial instruments are described below:

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values

because of the liquidity of these instruments.

Interest Bearing Deposits at Other Banks. The carrying amount is assumed to be the fair value given the short-term

nature of these deposits.

Loans. The fair value of loans, which is based on an exit price notion, is generally determined using an income based approach based on discounted cash flow analysis. This approach utilizes the contractual maturity of the loans and

market indications of interest rates, prepayment speeds, defaults and credit risk in determining fair value. For impaired loans,

an asset-based approach is applied to determine the estimated fair values of the underlying collateral. This approach utilizes

the estimated net sales proceeds to determine the fair value of the loans when deemed appropriate. The implied sales

proceeds value provides a better indication of value than using an income-based approach as these loans are not performing

or exhibit strong signs indicative of non-performance.

Securities. The fair values of securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.

Equity Securities and Other Bank Stock. The fair value of equity securities is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value. If quoted prices are not available to determine fair value, the Company estimates the fair values by using independent pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Restricted Stock Investments. Investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve stocks are recorded at cost and measured for impairment. Ownership of FHLB and Federal Reserve stocks are restricted to member banks and the securities do not have a readily determinable market value. Purchases and sales of these securities are at par value with the issuer. The fair value of investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve stock and other bank stock is equal to the carrying amount.

Servicing Asset. The fair value of servicing assets is based, in part, by third-party valuations that project estimated

future cash inflows that include servicing fees and outflows that include market rates for costs of servicing.

Deposits. The fair values disclosed for demand deposits, including interest and non-interest demand accounts,

savings, and certain types of money market accounts are, by definition based on carrying value. Fair value for fixed-rate

certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered

on certificates to a schedule of aggregate expected monthly maturities on time deposits. Early withdrawal of fixed-rate

certificates of deposit is not expected to be significant.

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings. The fair values of the Company’s overnight borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank approximates their carrying value as the advances were recently borrowed at market rate. The fair value of fixed-rated term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow through the remaining maturity dates based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility. The fair value of PPPLF is estimated using a discounted cash flow based on the remaining contractual term and current borrowing rates for similar terms.

Senior Secured Notes. The fair value of the senior secured notes approximates carrying value as the note was recently borrowed at a variable market rate.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable. The fair value of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates their carrying amounts.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material.

The following table provides the fair value hierarchy level and estimated fair value of significant financial instruments at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Transaction-based fees include items such as ATM and ACH fees, overdraft and stop payment charges, and are recognized at the time such transactions are executed and service has been fulfilled. Account maintenance charges, which are primarily monthly fees, are earned over the course of the month, which represents the period through which the Company satisfies its performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the time the overdraft occurs. Service charges are typically withdrawn from the customer’s account balance.

Stock Repurchase Plan

        On December 3, 2018, the Company announced a stock repurchase plan, providing for the repurchase of up to 1.2 million shares, or approximately 10%, of our then outstanding shares (the "repurchase plan"). The repurchase plan permits shares to be repurchased in open market or private transactions, through block trades, and pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18. The repurchase plan may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of tentative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors management deems appropriate. These factors may also affect the timing and amount of share repurchases. The repurchase plan does not obligate us to purchase any particular number of shares.

        On March 17, 2020, the Company suspended the stock repurchase plan to allow the Company to preserve capital and provide additional liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic to meet the credit needs of the Company’s customers, as well as support small businesses and the local economies served by the Company through the Bank's lending and other important services. There were no repurchases of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 12,824 shares of the Company's common stock repurchased at an average price of $21.30 per share and a total cost of $272 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company repurchased 38,411 and 328,770 shares of the Company's common stock at an average price of $22.34 and $21.54 and a total cost of $858 thousand and $7.1 million. Since the plan was announced, the Company has repurchased a total of 504,511 shares at an average price of $21.70 per share. The remaining number of shares authorized to be repurchased under this plan is 695,489 shares at June 30, 2020.

Regulatory Capital

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2020

Banking and Thrift, Other Disclosures [Abstract]

REGULATORY CAPITAL

REGULATORY CAPITALFirst Choice Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. 

At June 30, 2020, the Company qualified for treatment under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (Regulation Y, Appendix C) and, therefore, is not subject to consolidated capital rules at the bank holding company level. The Bank has also opted into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio ("CBLR") framework, beginning with the Call Report filed for the first quarter of 2020. At June 30, 2020, the Bank's CBLR ratio was 10.31% which exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under the CBLR framework and the Bank was considered to be ‘‘well-capitalized.’’

        Banks and their bank holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a leverage ratio (equal to tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets) of greater than 9%, are eligible to opt into the CBLR framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9% will be considered to have satisfied the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules (generally applicable rule) and, if applicable, will be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Accordingly, a qualifying community banking organization that exceeds the 9% CBLR will be considered to have met: (i) the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements of the generally applicable capital rules; (ii) the capital ratio requirements in order to be considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework; and (iii) any other applicable capital or leverage requirements. A qualifying community banking organization that elects to be under the CBLR framework generally would be exempt from the current capital framework, including risk-based capital requirements and capital conservation buffer requirements. A banking organization meets the definition of a “qualifying community banking organization” if the organization has:

•A leverage ratio of greater than 9%;

•Total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion;

•Total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than sold credit derivatives and unconditionally cancellable commitments) of 25% or less of total consolidated assets; and

•Total trading assets plus trading liabilities of 5% or less of total consolidated assets.

Even though a banking organization meets the above-stated criteria, federal banking regulators have reserved the authority to disallow the use of the CBLR framework by a depository institution or depository institution holding company, based on the risk profile of the banking organization.

On April 6, 2020, the federal banking regulators, implementing the applicable provisions of the CARES Act, issued interim rules which modified the CBLR framework so that: (i) beginning in the second quarter 2020 and until the end of the year, a banking organization that has a leverage ratio of 8% or greater and meets certain other criteria may elect to use the CBLR framework; and (ii) community banking organizations will have until January 1, 2022, before the CBLR requirement is reestablished at greater than 9%. Under the interim rules, the minimum CBLR will be 8% beginning in the second quarter and for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The interim rules also maintain a two-quarter grace period for a qualifying community banking organization whose leverage ratio falls no more than 1% below the applicable community bank leverage ratio. Assets originated under the PPP which are also pledged under the PPPLF are deducted from average total consolidated assets for purposes of the CBLR. However, such assets are included in total consolidated assets for purposes of determining the eligibility to elect the CBLR framework.

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Choice Bancorp, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Choice Bank, and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, PCB Real Estate Holdings, LLC, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for the interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These unaudited interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

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

Accounting Policies

The Company's accounting policies are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. They were disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under the section entitled "Summary of Critical Accounting Policies" in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the audited consolidated financial statements included therewith. Updates to our significant accounting policies are described below.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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 period. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change are the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of acquired loans, the valuation of goodwill and separately identifiable intangible assets associated with mergers and acquisitions, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Guidance On Non-TDR Loan Modifications Due to COVID-19

Guidance On Non-TDR Loan Modifications Due To COVID-19

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law. Section 4013 of the CARES Act, entitled "Temporary Relief From Troubled Debt Restructurings," provides banks with the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") for the period beginning March 1, 2020 and ending on the earlier of December 31, 2020 and the date that is 60 days following the termination of the federal emergency declaration relating to the Coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic.

On April 7, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued a revised statement, entitled "Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working With Customers Affected by the Coronavirus ("Revised Statement"). The Revised Statement clarifies the accounting treatment of loan modifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (“ASC Subtopic 310-40”). To be an eligible loan under section 4013, a loan modification must be (1) related to COVID-19; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (B) December 31, 2020 (applicable period). Financial institutions that account for loans under Section 4013 are not required to apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 to these loans for the term of the loan modification and will not have to report these loans as TDRs in regulatory reports.

In addition, our banking regulators and other financial regulators issued a joint interagency statement titled the “Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus” on March 22, 2020 and revised April 7, 2020, that encourages financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the interagency statement, loan modifications that do not meet the conditions of Section 4013 of the CARES Act may still qualify as a modification that does not need to be accounted for as a TDR. Specifically, the agencies confirmed with the staff of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that short-term modifications made in good faith in response to the pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs under GAAP. This includes short-term (e.g. six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or delays in payments that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. Appropriate allowances for loan and lease losses are expected to be maintained. With regard to loans not otherwise reportable as past due, financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to the pandemic as past due because of the deferral. The interagency statement also states that during short-term pandemic-related loan modifications, these loans generally should not be reported as nonaccrual.

For loan modifications that do not qualify for treatment under Section 4013 or ASC Subtopic 310-40, as clarified by the Revised Statement, financial institutions will be required to comply with existing accounting policies to determine whether the modification should be accounted for as a TDR.

The Company's initial loan deferral program provided a deferral of principal and/or interest-only payments for periods not exceeding 90-days for all loans that qualify under Section 4013 of the CARES Act. Loans qualifying for deferral

under this program continue to accrue interest during the deferral period and are not reported as past due loans or TDRs for the term of the deferral period. At the end of the deferral period, borrowers will be required to resume making regularly scheduled loan payments and the loans will be re-amortized over the remaining term. All payments received will be applied first to interest payments that were deferred during the deferral period, and then to interest and principal as provided under the terms of the loan. The Company may grant an extension of an additional 90-day deferments. The accrued interest will be reviewed to determine if a reserve for uncollectible interest is required.

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020 and Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The primary objective of ASU 2018-13 was to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2018-15"). ASU 2018-15 aligned the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that was a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). ASU 2018-15 was effective on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the years of adoption although early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), also known as "CECL". This guidance will replace the incurred loss impairment methodology used to estimate the allowance for credit losses in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects future expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forecasts in the credit loss estimates. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies, private companies and other non-SEC filers. The Company is considered a smaller reporting company. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. The Company is considering early adoption of ASU 2016-13 in 2021. Management has a cross functional committee in place to oversee the project, has selected a software to implement the new guidance using peer historical loss data, has engaged an existing third-party service provider to assist in implementation and has subscribed to a third-party application vendor for economic forecasts. The Company has completed data gap analyses, developed initial modeling assumptions, and run a high level sensitivity analysis. The Company expects to run parallel calculations, testing, and further sensitivity analysis in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test. Step 2 currently measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Instead, under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. On October 16, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2017-04 for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company, as well as private companies and other non-SEC filers. Therefore, this ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instrument (ASU 2019-05) which grants entities with transition relief upon the adoption of ASU

2016-13 by providing an option to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-05 to the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) which clarifies certain aspects of Topic 326 guidance issued in ASU 2016-13 including guidance providing transition relief for TDRs. This ASU will be effective upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company plans to adopt this guidance with ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326). The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2019-11 to the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12) which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations, and interim calculations, and add guidance to reduce the complexity of applying Topic 740. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years after December, 31, 2020. The Company plans to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (ASU 2020-04), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments are effective for contract modifications as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to the consolidated financial statements.

Effective April 27, 2020, the SEC amended the definitions of “accelerated” and “large accelerated filer” to exclude from those definitions registrants that are eligible to be treated as a smaller reporting company and that had annual revenues of less than $100 million in the most recent fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. Prior to these changes, the Company met the definition of an “accelerated filer" because the Company's public float was greater than $75 million but less than $700 million at the end of the Company’s most recent second quarter. The Company does not anticipate that it will qualify as an “accelerated filer” with respect to its annual report on form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2020 under these amended definitions. Whether an issuer qualifies as an “accelerated” or “large accelerated filer” or a “smaller reporting company” is determinative of whether the issuer is required to have their management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial report attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor, as required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Unlike “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filers, smaller reporting companies are not required to have independent auditor attestations of internal control over financial reporting, but remain obligated, among other things, to establish and maintain internal controls over financial reporting as required by SOX Section 404(a) and have management assess the effectiveness of these controls. In addition, smaller reporting companies also have additional time to file quarterly and annual financial statements.

Nevertheless, because the Bank’s total assets exceed $1.0 billion, the Bank is separately required by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") to have its management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Bank’s regulatory financial reporting attested to, and reported on, by an independent auditor. Accordingly, the SEC’s amended definitions of “large accelerated” and “accelerated” filer do not materially impact the Company's annual reporting and audit requirements other than providing the Company with additional time to prepare and file its periodic reports required to be filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.
