Forward Looking Statements
 
“Safe Harbor” statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changes in economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas; fluctuations in loan demand, the number of unsold homes, other properties and real estate values; the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios; our ability to manage loan delinquency rates, which may be impacted by  deterioration in the housing and commercial real estate markets that may lead to increased losses and non-performing assets in our loan portfolios, and may result in our allowance for loan losses not being adequate to cover actual losses and may require us to materially increase our reserves; changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas; changes in the levels of general interest rates, and the relative differences between short and long term interest rates, deposit interest rates, net interest margin, and funding sources; deposit flows; fluctuations in the demand for loans, the number of unsold homes and other properties, and fluctuations in real estate values in our market areas; adverse changes in the securities markets, including the possibility that the Company will recognize additional credit losses from our mortgage backed securities as a result of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) charges; results of examinations by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the “DFI”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) or other regulatory authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require us to increase our reserve for loan losses, write-down assets, recognize additional OTTI charges on our investment securities, change our regulatory capital position or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, which could adversely affect our liquidity and earnings; the possibility that we will be unable to comply with the conditions imposed upon us by the Order to Cease and Desist issued by the DFI and the FDIC or our Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the DFI, which could result in the imposition of additional restrictions on our operations; our ability to control operating costs and expenses; the use of estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets, which estimates may prove to be incorrect and result in significant declines in valuation; difficulties in reducing risk associated with the loans on our balance sheet; staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our work force and potential associated charges; computer systems on which we depend could fail or experience a security breach; our ability to retain key members of our senior management team; costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments; increased competitive pressures among financial services companies; changes in consumer spending, borrowing, and savings habits; legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including changes in regulatory policies and principles, including the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules; the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules, or regulations or to respond to regulatory actions; adverse changes in the securities markets; the inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us; changes in accounting policies,  principles or guidance, as may be adopted by the financial institution regulatory agencies or the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or their application to our business or audit adjustments; the economic impact of any terrorist actions; other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products, and services. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We do not undertake and specifically disclaim any obligation to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. These risks could cause our actual results for 2009 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by, or on behalf of, us, and could negatively affect the Company’s operating and stock price performance.

IMPERIAL CAPITAL BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
 
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Imperial Capital Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results of operations and financial position of the Company, as of the dates and for the interim periods indicated.  The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Imperial Capital Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Imperial Capital Bank (the “Bank”) and Imperial Capital Real Estate Investment Trust (“Imperial Capital REIT”).

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current periods.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the remainder of the year.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The Bank is currently operating under a Cease and Desist Order (the “Order”) with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the California Department of Financial Institutions (“DFI”).  Among other things, the Order requires the Bank to take certain measures in the areas of management, capital, loan loss allowance determination, risk management, liquidity management, board oversight and monitoring of compliance, and restricts payment of dividends and the opening of branch or other Bank offices.  The Order further requires the Company to increase and hold the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio above nine percent and the Bank’s Total Risk-Based Capital ratio above thirteen percent by August 11, 2009 and for the life of the Order.  As of June 30, 2009, the Bank had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.2% and the Bank’s Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 6.8%.  The Bank also submitted to the regulators within the prescribed time periods a revised policy for determining the allowance for loan losses, plans for reducing commercial real estate loan concentrations and brokered deposits, a liquidity plan, strategic business plan and profitability plan. The Order will remain in effect until modified or terminated by the FDIC and the DFI.  With the exception of the capital requirements discussed above, the Company is in compliance with the remaining requirements set forth within the Order.

The Bank’s regulatory capital position has fallen below the level necessary to be considered “adequately capitalized” and was categorized as “under capitalized” as of June 30, 2009 under the applicable regulatory framework.  Under capitalized banks may not accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits or solicit deposits yielding more than 75 basis points over prevailing rates in either the Bank’s market area or the area where deposits are solicited.  As of June 30, 2009, the Company had brokered deposits of $677.6 million, of which $174.8 million mature within the next twelve months.

In addition, as a result of being undercapitalized the Bank is subject to certain regulatory restrictions.  These restrictions are generally consistent with the restrictions identified within the Order and include, among others, that the Bank generally may not make any capital distributions, must submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to the FDIC, may not increase its average total assets during a calendar quarter in excess of its average total assets during the preceding calendar quarter unless any increase in total assets is consistent with the capital restoration plan approved by the FDIC and the Bank’s ratio of tangible equity to total assets increases during the calendar quarter at a rate sufficient to enable the Bank to become adequately capitalized within a reasonable time, and may not acquire a business, establish or acquire a branch office or engage in a new line of business without regulatory approval. In addition, as part of the required capital restoration plan, the Company must guarantee that the Bank will return to adequately capitalized status and provide appropriate assurances of performance of that guarantee.  If a capital restoration plan is not approved by the FDIC or if the Bank fails to implement the plan in any material respect, the undercapitalized institution is treated as if it were “significantly undercapitalized”.  Broad authority is granted to bank regulatory agencies with respect to "significantly undercapitalized" banks, including forced mergers, growth restrictions, ordering new elections for directors, forcing divestiture by their holding companies, if any, requiring management changes, and prohibiting the payment of bonuses to senior management.

In addition, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB San Francisco”) notified the Company that it may not appoint any new director or senior executive officer or change the responsibilities of any current senior executive officers without notifying the FRB.  The Company also may not make indemnification and severance payments without complying with certain statutory restrictions, including prior written approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”) and concurrence from the FDIC.  Further, the Company is generally prohibited from receiving dividends from the Bank, making any dividend payments (including distributions on its trust preferred securities) and increasing or renewing any debt, without receiving prior approval from the FRB San Francisco.  These restrictions are also contained in a written agreement that the Company entered into with the FRB San Francisco and the DFI on July 28, 2009, as described in Note 11 – “Subsequent Event.”

The above factors, and, in particular, the Company’s ability to comply with the terms of the Order requiring increased capital requirements raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classifications of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Management’s strategic plan in connection with addressing the going concern matters discussed above, focuses on four primary objectives including: (1) improving the Bank’s asset quality, (2) reducing the Bank’s asset base and improving regulatory capital ratios, (3) continuing to control and reduce the Company’s expenses, and (4) reducing the Bank’s reliance on wholesale funding sources.

Management is also evaluating various strategic options and continues to act upon both tactical and strategic alternatives to raise capital and restructure our balance sheet.  While considerable risks to the Company’s future financial performance exist, management believes that the Company can effectively respond to these risks and carry on its operations, while it implements this strategic plan and evaluates opportunities with respect to capital resources.

If management is not successful in its efforts to raise sufficient additional capital and restructure the balance sheet, the Bank will not be fully compliant with the provisions of the Order. As a result, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and/or the DFI may take further enforcement or other actions and ultimately could place the Bank into FDIC receivership.  If a receivership were to occur, the Bank’s assets would likely be liquidated, including a sale to another institution, and it would be unlikely that any assets would be distributed to the Company’s common stock and trust preferred holders.

For additional information regarding regulatory actions, refer to Note 11 – “Subsequent Event” contained within this Form 10-Q and Note 15 – “Regulatory Requirements” and Note 20 – “Subsequent Events” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the section captioned “Regulatory Action” in Item 1.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, total stock-based compensation expense included in our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was approximately $74,000 ($64,000, net of tax or $0.01 per diluted share) and $149,000 ($129,000, net of tax or $0.02 per diluted share), respectively.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, these amounts were $83,000 ($73,000, net of tax or $0.01 per diluted share) and $167,000 ($146,000, net of tax or $0.03 per diluted share), respectively.  Unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was approximately $268,000 and $627,000, respectively, at June 30, 2009 and 2008.  The weighted-average period over which the unrecognized expense was expected to be recognized was 1.0 years and 1.9 years at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.  No options were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

At June 30, 2009, the remaining contractual maturity and weighted average life of the mortgage-backed securities held-to-maturity was approximately 25.2 and 3.2 years, respectively. Additionally, the remaining contractual maturity and weighted average life of the collateralized mortgage obligations held-to-maturity was approximately 27.1 and 5.1 years, respectively, at June 30, 2009. The weighted average life of mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations differs from the contractual maturity due to anticipated principal prepayments.

A total of 82 securities and 101 securities had unrealized losses at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. These securities, with unrealized losses segregated by length of impairment, were as follows:

The Company adopted FSP SFAS No.115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments”, during the current period.  FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2 (i) change existing guidance for debt securities in determining when an impairment is other than temporary and (ii) replace the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired security until recovery with a requirement that management assert: (a) it does not have the intent to sell the security; and (b) it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. Under FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2, declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

In connection with the adoption of FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2, the Company recorded a $1.1 million cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings related to the non-credit related portion of an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) charge recorded in earnings during the year ended December 31, 2008 on an available-for-sale corporate sponsored CMO.  The corresponding entry to this adjustment was recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The Company recognized an $11.3 million OTTI during the three months ended June 30, 2009 on three held-to-maturity corporate sponsored CMOs, of which $2.6 million was identified as credit related and was recorded in earnings.  These OTTI charges were determined based on anticipated adverse changes to the projected cash flows for each of these securities caused by, among other things, an increase in projected collateral losses, a change in historical prepayment speeds, and a deterioration in the current level of subordination.  The Company also recognized a $1.0 million OTTI during the three months ended June 30, 2009 on an available-for-sale corporate bond.  The entire $1.0 million was identified as a credit related OTTI charge and, accordingly, was recognized in earnings.  This OTTI was primarily due to a downgrade in the credit rating of the bond to below investment grade and a substantial deterioration in the underlying collateral, which primarily consists of trust preferred securities issued by banks and insurance companies geographically dispersed across the United States.

As a part of the Company’s OTTI assessment, management considers information available about the performance of the underlying collateral, including credit enhancements, default rates, loss severities, delinquency rates, vintage, as well as rating agency reports and historical prepayment speeds.  As a result, significant judgment is used in the Company’s analysis to determine the expected cash flows for its impaired securities.  In determining the component of the OTTI related to credit losses, the Company compares the amortized cost basis of each other-than-temporarily impaired security to the present value of its expected cash flows, discounted using its effective interest rate implicit in the security at the date of acquisition.

The Company’s assessment that it has the ability to continue to hold impaired investment securities along with its evaluation of their future performance, as indicated by the criteria discussed above, provide the basis for it to conclude that the remainder of its impaired securities are not other-than-temporarily impaired.  In assessing whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell any impaired security before its anticipated recovery, which may be at their maturity, it considers the significance of each investment, the amount of impairment, as well as the Company’s liquidity position and the impact on the Company’s capital position.  As a result of its analyses, the Company determined at June 30, 2009 that the unrealized losses on its securities portfolio on which impairments have not been recognized are temporary.

Certain of the OTTI amounts were related to credit losses and recognized into earnings, with the remainder recognized into other comprehensive loss.  The table below presents the rollforward of other-than-temporary impairments where a portion related to other factors was recognized in other comprehensive loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company received gross proceeds of $69.1 million and $102.1 million, respectively, in connection with the sale of securities available-for-sale.  The gross realized gain on these sales was $2.8 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.  During the same periods last year, there were no securities sold prior to their maturity or call date and there were no realized gains or losses recognized on the sale of investment securities.

The valuation of the Company’s investment securities and the determination of any OTTI with respect to such securities is highly complex and involves a comprehensive process, including quantitative modeling and significant judgment.  See Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors – The valuation of the Company’s investment securities and the determination of any other-than-temporary impairment with respect to these securities is highly subjective and our regulators may not agree with our analyses.”
 
NOTE 4 – EARNINGS (LOSSES) PER SHARE
 
Basic Earnings (Losses) Per Share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted Earnings (Losses) Per Share (“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 which shared in the Company’s earnings.  Stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2009 and 2008 were 469,150 and 550,650, respectively.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, 469,150 of these options outstanding were excluded from the diluted EPS computation as their effect was anti-dilutive, compared to 533,650 and 514,050, respectively, for the same periods last year.

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUE
 
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008, for financial instruments.  Although the adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not materially impact its financial condition or results of operations, the Company is now required to provide additional disclosures as part of its financial statements.

The Company also adopted FASB Staff Position No. 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157," which deferred the application of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, until January 1, 2009.  Items impacted by this deferral included goodwill and other real estate and other assets owned (REO), all of which require fair value measurements as a part of any necessary impairment analysis.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Investment securities available-for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs with respect to valuing equity securities with quoted prices on an active market, Level 2 inputs for investment and debt securities, and Level 3 inputs related to the valuation of the Company’s residual interest in securitized loans.  The valuation for investment and debt securities utilizing Level 2 inputs were primarily determined by an independent pricing service using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities.

The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 157 were as follows:

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.  These instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 include certain impaired loans reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.  Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on limited observable market data and customized discounting criteria.  During the current period, certain impaired loans were remeasured and written down to their fair values through a specific valuation allowance allocation of the allowance for loan losses based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral.  Impaired loans with a carrying value of $108.2 million were written down by $24.1 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 to a total reported fair value of $84.1 million.  Impaired loans with a carrying value of $132.9 million were written down by $30.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 to a total reported fair value of $102.5 million.

Certain non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include REO, non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value in the second step of a goodwill impairment test, and intangible assets and other non-financial long-lived assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, certain other real estate owned, upon initial recognition, were remeasured and reported at fair value through a charge-off of $3.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively, to the allowance for loan losses based upon the fair value of the foreclosed asset less estimated selling costs.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, REO valued subsequent to its initial recognition, were remeasured and reported at fair value through a charge-off of $2.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively, to the provision for losses on REO.  The fair value of REO is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on limited observable market data and customized discounting criteria.  REO measured at fair value totaled $64.3 million at June 30, 2009.

Fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding credit risk, expectations of future economic conditions, normal cost of administration of these instruments and other risk characteristics, including interest rate risk and prepayment risk. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. The fair value estimates presented do not include the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.

During the current period, the Company adopted FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, which requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies, as well as in annual financial statements.  Although the adoption of FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1 did not materially impact its financial condition or results of operations, the Company is now required to provide additional disclosures as part of its financial statements.

We use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents — The carrying values reported in the balance sheet approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of the assets.

Investment Securities — Fair values are based on bid prices and quotations published and/or received from established securities dealers.  In those situations where quotations are not available, values are determined using present value of estimated future cash flows.

Stock in Federal Home Loan Bank — The carrying value approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

 
-18-

 
Loans — The fair value is estimated using market quotes for similar assets or the present value of future cash flows, discounted using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same maturities and giving consideration to estimated prepayment risk and credit risk.

Accrued Interest Receivable — The carrying values reported in the balance sheet approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of the asset.

Deposit Accounts — The fair value of demand deposit, money market and passbook accounts is estimated to be the amount payable on demand due to the short-term nature of these deposits. The fair values for time certificates, both over and under $100,000, are estimated by discounting the expected cash flows at current market rates over expected maturities.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings  The fair value is estimated by discounting the expected cash flows at current market rates over contractual maturities.

Junior Subordinated Debentures The fair value is estimated using the present value of future cash flows, discounted using the current rate at which a similar debenture would be issued.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires an asset and liability approach for the financial accounting and reporting of income taxes.  Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements.  These balances are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the year(s) in which these temporary differences are expected to reverse.  The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted.

 
-19-

 
As of June 30, 2009, the Company established a valuation allowance on the entire balance of its net deferred tax asset due to uncertainty related to our ability to realize the Company’s remaining deferred tax assets.  Management will continue to evaluate the potential realizability of these deferred tax assets and will continue to maintain a valuation allowance to the extent it is determined that it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized.

NOTE 9 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB Statement No. 51.”  SFAS No. 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2009 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No.133."  SFAS No. 161 amends SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," to amend and expand the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 133 to provide greater transparency about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  To meet those objectives, SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2009 and did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.”  SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). The hierarchical guidance provided by SFAS No. 162 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. SFAS No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.”  FSP SFAS No. 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. The FSP also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP SFAS No. 157-4 became effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively.  The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 157-4 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1 amends SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements.  In addition, the FSP amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods.  The FSP became effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with earlier adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation because it is a disclosure standard.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.”  FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2 amends other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities to make guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities. The FSP does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities.  FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2 became effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with earlier adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Refer to Note 3 – “Investments” for further discussion regarding the impact of the adoption of FSP SFAS No. 115-2 and SFAS No. 124-2.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events.”  SFAS No. 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued.  SFAS No. 165 defines (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which a reporting entity’s management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and (iii) the disclosures an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS No. 165 became effective for the Company’s financial statements for periods ending after June 15, 2009. SFAS No. 165 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

 
-21-

 
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140”, which pertains to securitizations.  SFAS No. 166, which amends SFAS No. 140, will require more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where entities have continued exposure to the risks related to transferred assets.  SFAS No. 166 is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 166 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”, which pertains to special purpose entities.  SFAS No. 167 amends FIN 46(R) and replaces the quantitative- based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with a qualitative approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity.  SFAS No. 167 is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 167 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”, which pertains to the authority of United States generally accepted accounting standards.  With the issuance of SFAS No. 168, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  On the effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.  SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 168 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
 
NOTE 10 – BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, requires disclosure of segment information in a manner consistent with the “management approach”.  The management approach is based on the way the chief operating decision-maker organizes segments within a company for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

The main factors used to identify operating segments are the specific product and business lines of the various operating segments of the Company. Operating segments are organized separately by product and service offered. We have identified one operating segment that meets the criteria of being a reportable segment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 131. This reportable segment is the origination and purchase of loans, which by its legal form, is identified as operations of the Bank and Imperial Capital REIT. This segment derives the majority of its revenue by originating and purchasing loans. Other operating segments of the Company that did not meet the criteria of being a reportable segment in accordance with SFAS No. 131 have been aggregated and reported as “All Other”. Substantially all of the transactions from the Company’s operating segments occur in the United States.

 
-22-

 
Transactions between the reportable segment of the Company and its other operating segments are made at terms which approximate arm’s-length transactions and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. There is no significant difference between the measurement of the reportable segments profits and losses disclosed below and the measurement of profits and losses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Accounting allocations are made in the same manner for all operating segments.

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
On July 28, 2009, the Company entered into a written agreement (the “Agreement”) with the FRB San Francisco and the DFI.  The Agreement is designed to enhance the Company’s ability to act as a source of strength to the Bank and requires the Company to obtain regulatory approval before paying dividends, receiving dividends from the Bank, making payments on subordinated debentures or trust preferred securities, incurring debt or purchasing/redeeming Company stock. The Agreement requires the Company to submit to the FRB and the DFI a plan to maintain adequate capital on a consolidated basis and at the Bank.  The Agreement also provides that the Company may not appoint any new director or senior executive officer or change the responsibilities of any current senior executive officers without notifying the FRB and the DFI.  The Agreement further provides that the Company may not make certain indemnification and severance payments without complying with specified statutory restrictions, including prior written approval of the FRB and concurrence from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  The Company must furnish periodic progress reports to the FRB and the DFI regarding its compliance with the Agreement.  The Agreement will remain in effect until modified or terminated by the FRB and the DFI.  See Note 1 – “Basis of Presentation and Organization.”

Other than the requirement that the Company submit a capital plan and the making of the DFI as a party to the Agreement, the Company was previously subject to most of the restrictions set forth in the Agreement pursuant to a prior notification from the FRB.

The Company evaluated subsequent events through August 14, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were issued.

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

The following discussion and analysis is intended to identify the major factors that affected our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

Operating Strategy

Our financial performance continues to be negatively impacted by national economic conditions and the deterioration of real estate and credit related markets.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a net loss of $63.6 million, primarily related to a $39.6 million provision for loan losses that was recorded as a result of the elevated levels in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern, a $19.2 million provision for income taxes that was recorded to provide for a valuation allowance against our remaining net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2009, as it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized, and an increase in non-interest expense caused by additional costs associated with FDIC insurance and other real estate owned.

In response to these financial challenges and the increased regulatory supervision to which we are subject (see Note 1 – “Basis of Presentation and Organization” and Note 11 – “Subsequent Event” in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q), we have taken and are continuing to take a number of tactical actions aimed at preserving existing capital, reducing our lending exposures and associated capital requirements and increasing liquidity. The tactical actions taken include, but are not limited to the following: ceasing loan originations in order to focus on managing our problem assets, growing retail deposits, reducing brokered deposits, seeking commercial loan participation and sales arrangements with other lenders or private equity sources, and reducing personnel and other operating costs. Our goal is to return to profitability by reducing our size, stabilizing our losses, managing our problematic assets and reducing overall expenses.

We are currently focused on the following four primary objectives as a basis for long-term success of our franchise including improving our asset quality, reducing our asset base and improving our regulatory capital ratios, continuing our expense control, and reducing our reliance on wholesale funding sources.  With respect to these initiatives, since December 31, 2008, we have reduced our loan portfolio by $139.1 million, or 5.0%, as well as our Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances and other borrowings by $120.4 million, or 10.0%, and a decrease in deposits of $24.8 million, or 0.8%, which included a $62.3 million, or 8.4% decline in brokered deposits.  As of June 30, 2009, the Company had brokered deposits of $677.6 million, of which $174.8 million mature within the next twelve months.

 
-25-

 
We are also evaluating various strategic options and are seeking the assistance of investment banking services to evaluate and potentially pursue the prospects of private equity investment or other capital raising alternatives. While we continue to act upon both tactical and strategic alternatives to raise capital and restructure our balance sheet, as has been widely publicized, access to capital markets is extremely limited in the current economic environment, and we can give no assurances that in the current financial environment our efforts will be successful and will result in sufficient capital preservation or infusion. Our ability to decrease our levels of non-performing assets is also dependent upon market conditions as many of our borrowers rely on an active real estate market as a source of repayment, particularly our construction loan borrowers, and the sale of loans in this market is difficult. If the real estate market does not improve, our level of non-performing assets may continue to increase.

For further discussion, refer to the section captioned “Operating Strategy” within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates

The accounting and reporting policies followed by us conform, in all material respects, to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and to general practices within the financial services industry.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. While we base our estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates.

We consider accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on our financial statements.  Accounting policies related to the allowance for loan losses and investments accounted for under Statement of Position 03-3 are considered to be critical, as these policies involve considerable subjective judgment and estimation by management.  We also consider our accounting polices related to REO to be critical due to the potential significance of these activities and the estimates involved.

For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to Note 1 – “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the sections captioned “Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates” and “Allowance for Loan Losses and Non-performing Assets” in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  There have been no significant changes in the Company's application of accounting policies since December 31, 2008.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2008
 
Executive Summary
 
Consolidated net loss was $63.6 million, or $11.72 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to net income of $2.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share for the same period last year.  The decline in net income during the current period was primarily caused by a $33.4 million increase in provision for loan losses recorded in connection with the increase in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern and a $19.2 million provision for income taxes that was recorded to provide for a valuation allowance against our remaining net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2009 due to uncertainty regarding the realizability of these assets.  Our quarterly results were also negatively impacted by an increase of $9.0 million in non-interest expense caused by an increase in our accrual for FDIC quarterly insurance premiums and a special FDIC insurance assessment that will be paid during the third quarter of this year.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased 26.0% to $18.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $24.8 million for the same period last year.  The decrease was primarily due to a decline in interest earned on our loan portfolio.  This decline was partially offset by an increase in interest earned on our cash and investment portfolio.

The provision for loan losses was $39.6 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  The provision for loan losses recorded during the quarter was primarily due to the increase in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern.  Non-performing loans as of June 30, 2009 were $265.5 million, compared to $154.9 million at December 31, 2008.  The increase in non-performing loans was caused by net increases of $62.9 million in multi-family loans, $28.1 million in commercial real estate loans, $24.3 million in commercial and multi-family construction loans, $8.2 million in land development related loans and $7.1 million in other loans, partially offset by a decrease of $20.0 million in residential and condominium conversion construction loans primarily due to charge-offs and migration to other real estate owned status.  Other loans of concern consist of performing loans which have known information that has caused management to be concerned about the borrower’s ability to comply with present loan repayment terms.  Other loans of concern as of June 30, 2009 were $260.5 million, compared to $114.6 million at December 31, 2008.  The increase was primarily caused by the net addition of $48.6 million of multi-family real estate loans, $69.5 million of commercial real estate loans and $27.3 million of construction and land development related loans.

The (loss) return on average assets was (5.74%) for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 0.25% for the same period last year.  The (loss) return on average shareholders’ equity was (154.92%) for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 4.16% for the same period last year.

Loan originations were $424,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $87.1 million for the same period last year.  All loans originated during the current quarter were small balance multi-family real estate loans.  Loan originations for the same period last year consisted of $31.7 million of commercial real estate loans, $46.1 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, and $9.2 million of entertainment finance loans.  The decrease in loan production during the current period related to the Bank’s strategic objective to reduce our asset base and focus on managing our problem assets.  In addition, the Bank is currently restricted in its ability to grow as a result of its “undercapitalized” status.  See Note 1 – “Basis of Presentation and Organization” in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

Total interest income decreased $6.5 million to $56.8 million for the current quarter as compared to $63.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributable to a 100 basis point and 257 basis point decline in the average yield earned on total loans receivable and cash and investment securities, respectively, an increase in the average balance of non-performing loans and a $365.5 million decrease in the average balance of our total loans receivable, partially offset by a $910.1 million increase in the average balance of our cash and investment securities.

The average balance of cash and investment securities was $1.7 billion during the quarter compared to $740.5 million during the same period last year.  The average balance of investment securities held-to-maturity was $889.0 million and $567.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Investments held-to-maturity were primarily impacted by the purchase of approximately $861.8 million of corporate sponsored collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) during the second and third quarters of 2008.  At the time of acquisition, these securities were AAA-rated.  As of June 30, 2009, approximately 93.0% of the securities had been downgraded by the investment rating agencies to a level below investment grade.  Despite these downgrades, we have currently experienced no disruption in our expected cash flows on these securities; however, based on our current OTTI assessments, we are projecting a disruption of future cash flows on only three of these securities, which have an aggregate face amount of $39.8 million as of June 30, 2009.  The average balance of investment securities available-for-sale was $437.0 million and $168.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  As discussed below in the “Financial Condition” section, this increase primarily consisted of the acquisition of U.S. Treasury and GNMA securities during the current period.  The average balance of cash and cash equivalents was primarily impacted by the increased liquidity maintained on our balance sheet compared to the same period last year, which increased to $324.0 million at June 30, 2009 compared to $3.7 million for the same period last year.  The average yield earned on cash and investment securities decreased to 4.73% during the current quarter as compared to 7.30% for the same period last year.  This decrease was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of lower yielding cash and cash equivalents and U.S. Treasury and GNMA available-for-sale securities acquired during the current year.

The average aggregate balance of our loan portfolio was $2.7 billion and $3.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Commercial real estate loans had an average aggregate balance of $557.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to $600.5 million during the same period last year.  Construction and land loans had an average aggregate balance of $377.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to $436.9 million during the same period last year.  Multi-family real estate loans had an average aggregate balance of $1.7 billion during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1.9 billion during the same period last year.  Single-family residential loans had an average aggregate balance of $10.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to $11.9 million during the same period last year.  The average aggregate balance of entertainment finance loans was $46.2 million and $66.1 million during the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The declines in the average loan balances were due to loan paydowns, charge-offs incurred on non-performing loans, the transfer of loans to other real estate owned and substantially reduced origination levels.

The average yield earned on total loans decreased to 5.53% during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 6.53% during the same period last year.  The decrease in yield was primarily due to adjustable rate loans repricing to lower current market interest rates and an increase in the average balance of non-performing loans.  The accrual of interest has been suspended on all of our non-performing loans.  A significant portion of our loan portfolio is comprised of adjustable rate loans indexed to either six month LIBOR or the Prime Rate, most with interest rate floors and caps below and above which the loan’s contractual interest rate may not adjust.  Approximately 51.5% of our loan portfolio was adjustable at June 30, 2009, and approximately 36.0% of the loan portfolio was comprised of hybrid loans, which after an initial fixed rate period of three or five years, will convert to an adjustable interest rate for the remaining term of the loan.  As of June 30, 2009, our hybrid loans had a weighted average of 2.3 years remaining until conversion to an adjustable rate loan.  Our adjustable rate loans generally reprice on a quarterly or semi-annual basis with increases generally limited to maximum adjustments of 2% per year up to 5% for the life of the loan.  At June 30, 2009, approximately $2.3 billion, or 87.7%, of our adjustable and hybrid loan portfolio contained interest rate floors, below which the loans’ contractual interest rate may not adjust.  The inability of our loans to adjust downward can contribute to increased income in periods of declining interest rates, and also assists us in our efforts to limit the risks to earnings resulting from changes in interest rates, subject to the risk that borrowers may refinance these loans during periods of declining interest rates.  At June 30, 2009, the weighted average floor interest rate of these loans was 6.57%.  At that date, approximately $831.5 million, or 31.2%, of these loans were at the floor interest rate.  At June 30, 2009, 53.5% of the adjustable rate loans outstanding had a lifetime interest rate cap. The weighted-average lifetime interest rate cap on our adjustable rate loan portfolio was 11.75% at that date.  At June 30, 2009, none of these loans were at their cap rate.

Total interest expense decreased by $86,000 to $38.5 million during the current quarter, compared to $38.6 million for the same period last year.  The slight decrease in interest expense was primarily attributable to a 69 basis point decline in our average cost of funds, which was primarily caused by deposits repricing to lower current market interest rates, partially offset by a $654.2 million increase in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities.

Our average cost of funds decreased to 3.65% during the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 4.34% for the same period last year.  As discussed above, the decrease in the average funding costs was primarily due to deposits repricing to lower current market interest rates.  The average rate paid on deposit accounts was 3.27% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 4.27% for the same period last year.  The average balance of deposit accounts increased to $3.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $2.3 billion for the same period last year.  The average rate paid on FHLB advances and other borrowings was 4.43% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to 4.19% for the same period last year.  FHLB advances and other borrowings averaged $1.1 billion during the current quarter, compared to $1.2 billion for the same period last year.

Net interest margin decreased to 1.69% for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2.61% for the same period last year.  This decrease was primarily caused by a 145 basis point decline in the yield earned on interest earning assets and a $544.6 million increase in the average balance of interest earning assets.

Provision for Loan Losses

Management believes the allowance for loan losses accounting policy is critical to the portrayal and understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. As such, selection and application of this “critical accounting policy” involves judgments, estimates, and uncertainties that are susceptible to change. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood.

Management periodically assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses by reference to many quantitative and qualitative factors that may be weighted differently at various times depending on prevailing conditions. These factors include, among other elements:

 
the risk characteristics of various classifications of loans;

 
general portfolio trends relative to asset and portfolio size;

 
asset categories;

 
potential credit and geographic concentrations;

 
delinquency trends within the loan portfolio;

 
changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, classified loans and other loans of concern;
 
 
-31-

 
 
historical loss experience and risks associated with changes in economic, social and business conditions; and

 
the underwriting standards in effect when the loan was made.

Accordingly, the calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is not based solely on the level of nonperforming assets.  The quantitative factors, included above, are utilized by our management to identify two different risk groups (1) individual loans (loans with specifically identifiable risks); and (2) homogeneous loans (groups of loan with similar characteristics).  We base the allocation for individual loans on the estimated collateral value if the loan is collateral dependent, as well as the risk rating grades assigned to each of these loans as a result of our loan management and review processes.  Loans evaluated individually (primarily loans considered impaired or substandard) are allocated reserves based on the estimated collateral values.  Homogenous groups of loans are allocated reserves based on the loss ratio assigned to the pool based on its collateral type and risk grade.  The loss ratio is determined based on historical loss experience, augmented by the experience of management with similar assets and our independent loan review process.

The loan review process begins at the loan’s origination where we obtain information about the borrower and the real estate collateral, such as personal financial statements, FICO scores, property rent rolls, property operating statements, appraisals, market assessments, and other pertinent data.  Throughout the loan life, we obtain updated information such as rent rolls, property cash flow statements, personal financial statements, and for certain loans, updated property inspection reports.  This information, at the individual borrower and loan level, provides input into our risk profile of our borrowers, and serves as the primary basis for each loan’s risk grade.

Loss ratios for all categories of loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis and are primarily determined based on historical loss experience.  Loss ratios associated with historical loss experience are determined based on a rolling migration analysis of each loan category within our portfolio.  This migration analysis estimates loss factors based on the performance of each loan category over a five year time period.  These loss factors are then adjusted for other identifiable risks specifically related to each loan category or risk grade.  We utilize market and other economic data, which we accumulate on a quarterly basis, to evaluate and identify the economic and real estate related trends within each regional market that we operate.  In addition to the information gathered from this data, we also typically consider other risk factors, such as specific risks within a loan category, peer analysis reports, and any other relevant trends or data, in determining any necessary adjustments to our historical loss factors.  To the extent that known risks or trends exist, the loss ratios are adjusted accordingly, and incorporated into our assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses.

The qualitative factors, included above, are also utilized to identify other risks inherent in the portfolio and to determine whether the estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio might differ from historical loss trends or the loss ratios discussed above.  We estimate a range of exposure for each applicable qualitative factor and evaluate the current condition and trend of each factor.  Based on this evaluation, we assign a positive, negative or neutral grade to each factor to determine whether the portion of the qualitative reserve is in the high, middle or low end of the range for each factor.  Because of the subjective nature of these factors and the judgments required to determine the estimated ranges, the actual losses incurred can vary significantly from the estimated amounts.

Management believes that our allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2009 was adequate to absorb the known and inherent risks of loss in the loan portfolio at that date. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators, as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional reserves based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

The provision for loan losses was $39.6 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  The provision for loan losses recorded during the quarter was primarily due to the increase in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern.  The provision for loan losses was recorded based on an analysis of the factors referred to above.  Non-performing loans as of June 30, 2009 were $265.5 million, compared to $154.9 million at December 31, 2008.  The increase in non-performing loans was caused by net increases of $62.9 million in multi-family loans, $28.1 million in commercial real estate loans, $24.3 million in commercial and multi-family construction loans, $8.2 million in land development related loans and $7.1 million in other loans, partially offset by decreases of $20.0 million in residential and condominium conversion construction loans primarily due to charge-offs and migration to other real estate owned status.  Other loans of concern as of June 30, 2009 were $260.5 million, compared to $114.6 million at December 31, 2008.  The increase during the current period was primarily caused by the net addition of $48.6 million of multi-family real estate loans, $69.5 million of commercial real estate loans and $27.3 million of construction and land related loans.  As a percentage of our total loan portfolio, the amount of non-performing loans was 9.98% and 5.53% at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

With the housing and secondary mortgage markets continuing to deteriorate and showing limited signs of stabilizing, we continue to aggressively monitor our real estate loan portfolio, including our construction and land loan portfolio.  Our construction and land loan portfolio at June 30, 2009 totaled $357.9 million, of which $156.1 million were residential and condominium conversion construction loans and $34.1 million were land development loans, representing 5.9% and 1.3%, respectively, of our total loan portfolio.  Within these portfolios, approximately 50.3%, 30.4%, 5.7% and 5.4% of the underlying collateral was located in California, New York, Pennsylvania and Arizona, respectively.  At June 30, 2009, we had $50.9 million and $22.5 million of non-performing lending relationships within our residential and condominium conversion construction loans and land development loans, respectively.  Of these non-performing construction and land development loans, 10 relationships, with an aggregate balance of $54.6 million, were located in California (primarily in Los Angeles, Orange County and the Inland Empire).

 
-33-

 
The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of our total loans was 2.81% at June 30, 2009 compared to 1.81% at December 31, 2008.  We believe that these reserves levels were adequate to support known and inherent losses in our loan portfolio and for specific reserves as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  The allowance for loan losses is impacted by inherent risk in the loan portfolio, including the level of our non-performing loans and other loans of concern, as well as specific reserves and charge-off activity.
 
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we had net loan charge-offs of $27.7 million as compared to $3.4 million during the same period last year.  The current period charge-offs consisted of $15.5 million charge-offs related to construction and land development loans and $10.6 million of multi-family real estate loans.  The charge-offs taken have reduced the balances on the loans to the estimated value of the underlying real estate collateral based upon recent appraisals.  See also – “Credit Risk”.

Non-Interest Income (Loss)

Non-interest loss was ($659,000) during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to ($1.1 million) for the same period last year.  During the quarter, we recognized a $2.6 million impairment charge on our corporate sponsored CMOs held-to-maturity, as well as a $1.0 million impairment booked on a corporate bond available-for-sale. This loss was partially offset by a $2.8 million gain on the sale of government sponsored CMOs available-for-sale.  Non-interest income typically consists of late fees and other miscellaneous fees earned on customer accounts.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $22.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $13.5 million for the same period last year.  The increase in non-interest expense primarily related to a $7.6 million increase in other general and administrative costs primarily related to an increase in our accrual for FDIC quarterly insurance premiums due to an increase in general assessment rates for all institutions and a special FDIC insurance assessment imposed on all institutions that will be paid during the third quarter of this year, and a $3.3 million increase in expenses associated with real estate owned and other foreclosed assets.  The FDIC special assessment is five basis points based on the institution’s total assets less Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009, not to exceed ten basis points times the institution’s deposit assessment base. Additional special assessments of up to the same amount may be imposed based on assets as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 and, if assessed, would be paid during the subsequent quarter.  Due to a combination of generally increased assessment rates, the Bank’s “undercapitalized” status and the possibility of additional special assessments, we expect that our expense for FDIC insurance premiums and assessments will continue to rise in future periods.  The increase in expenses associated with real estate owned and other foreclosed assets primarily related to a $2.7 million provision recorded during the quarter in connection with a decline in the estimated fair value of these properties, as well as an increase of $1.2 million in costs incurred related to other real estate owned.  This increase was partially offset by a $1.7 million decline in compensation and benefits, which was primarily related to a workforce reduction.  Our efficiency ratio (defined as general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue) was 103.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, as compared to 53.7% for the same period last year.  The increase in our efficiency ratio was primarily caused by the $5.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses and the $6.4 million decrease in net interest income.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes was $19.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  During the current period, the Company established a valuation allowance on the remaining net deferred tax asset due to uncertainty related to our ability to realize these assets.  In connection with management’s assessment of its deferred tax asset, it was determined that it was more likely than not that these assets will not be realized.
 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2008
 
Executive Summary
 
Consolidated net loss was $81.4 million, or $14.99 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to net income of $3.0 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the same period last year.  The decline in net income during the current period was primarily caused by a $48.3 million increase in provision for loan losses recorded in connection with the increase in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern and a $17.2 million increase in provision for income taxes that was recorded to provide for a valuation allowance against our remaining net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2009 due to uncertainty regarding the realizability of these assets.  Our quarterly results were also negatively impacted by an increase of $12.2 million in non-interest expense caused by an increase in our accrual for FDIC quarterly insurance premiums and a special FDIC insurance assessment that will be paid during the third quarter of this year.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased 16.9% to $37.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $44.9 million for the same period last year.  This decrease was primarily due to a decline in interest earned on our loan portfolio and an increase in interest expense incurred on our deposits and FHLB and other borrowings, partially offset by an increase in interest income earned on our cash and investment securities.

The provision for loan losses was $58.8 million and $10.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  As discussed in detail above, the increase in provision for loan losses during the current six month period was primarily due to the increase in our non-performing loans and other loans of concern.

The (loss) return on average assets was (3.62%) for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 0.17% for the same period last year.  The (loss) return on average shareholders’ equity was (92.76%) for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 2.69% for the same period last year.

Loan originations were $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $175.5 million for the same period last year.  All of the loans originated during the current six month period were small balance multi-family real estate loans.  Loan originations for the same period last year consisted of $74.4 million of commercial real estate loans, $65.1 million of small balance multi-family real estate loans, and $34.9 million of entertainment finance loans.

Total interest income decreased $3.8 million to $118.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $122.5 million for the same period last year. The decrease in interest income was primarily attributable to a $368.8 million and 98 basis point decline in the average balance and yield earned on total loans receivable, a 189 basis point decline on cash and investment securities and an increase in the average balance of non-performing loans, partially offset by a $1.2 billion increase in the average balance on cash and investment securities.

The average balance of cash and investment securities increased to $1.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $540.0 million during the same period last year.  The average balance of our investment securities held-to-maturity was $908.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to $363.3 million for the same period last year.  As discussed within the comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, this increase was primarily related to the purchase of approximately $861.6 million of corporate sponsored CMOs during the second and third quarters of 2008.  The average balance of cash and cash equivalents was $451.6 million and $5.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  This increase was primarily related to the additional liquidity maintained on our balance sheet compared to the same period last year.  The average balance of investment securities available-for-sale was $346.7 million and $170.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  As discussed below in the “Financial Condition” section, this increase primarily consisted of the acquisition of U.S. Treasury and GNMA securities during the current period.  The average yield earned on our cash and investment securities decreased to 4.70% during the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to 6.59% for the same period last year.  The average yield earned during the six months ended June 30, 2009 on our investment securities held-to-maturity was 7.63%, as compared to 6.94% for the same period last year, however this increase was offset by an increase in the average balance of lower yielding cash and cash equivalents and U.S. Treasury and GNMA available-for-sale securities acquired during the current year as compared to the same period last year.

The average aggregate balance of our loan portfolio was $2.7 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  Commercial real estate loans had an average aggregate balance of $560.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $609.5 million during the same period last year.  Construction and land loans had an average aggregate balance of $386.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $428.5 million during the same period last year.  Multi-family real estate loans had an average aggregate balance of $1.7 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $2.0 billion during the same period last year.  Single-family residential loans had an average aggregate balance of $10.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $13.1 million during the same period last year.  The average aggregate balance of entertainment finance loans was $49.1 million and $68.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The declines in the average loan balances were due to loan paydowns, charge-offs incurred on non-performing loans, the transfer of loans to other real estate owned and substantially reduced origination levels.

The average yield earned on total loans decreased to 5.79% during the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 6.77% during the same period last year.  The decrease in yield was primarily due to adjustable rate loans repricing to lower current market interest rates and an increase in the average balance of non-performing loans.  The accrual of interest has been suspended on all of our non-performing loans.

Total interest expense increased by $3.8 million to $81.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $77.6 million for the same period last year.  The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to an $895.3 million increase in the average balances of deposits.  This increase was partially offset by a 76 basis points decline in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities, primarily caused by deposits repricing to lower current market interest rates.

Our average cost of funds decreased to 3.81% during the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 4.57% for the same period last year.  As discussed above, the decrease in the average funding costs was primarily due to deposits repricing to lower current market interest rates.  The average rate paid on deposit accounts was 3.48% during the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to 4.55% for the same period last year.  The average balance of deposit accounts increased by $895.3 million to $3.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $2.2 billion for the same period last year.  The average rate paid on FHLB advances and other borrowings was 4.43% during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to 4.30% for the same period last year.  FHLB advances and other borrowings averaged $1.1 billion during both six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Net interest margin decreased to 1.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2.47% for the same period last year.

Provision for Loan Losses

The consolidated provision for loan losses was $58.8 million and $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The provision for loan losses was recorded based on an analysis of the factors referred to above in the discussion regarding the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, we had net loan charge-offs of $34.5 million and $7.1 million, respectively. The current period charge-off primarily consists of $21.7 million of construction and land related loans and $11.4 million of multi-family residential loans.  See management’s discussion of the provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 for additional discussion regarding the provision for loan losses incurred during the current period and the corresponding methodology.

Non-Interest Income (Loss)

Non-interest loss was ($46,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to ($881,000) for the same period last year.  As discussed above, non-interest income primarily consisted of a $3.6 million other-than-temporary impairment charge recognized during the current quarter and a $1.1 million fee incurred in connection with the early settlement of our $30.0 million other borrowing during the first quarter of this year.  These losses were partially offset by $4.2 million of gains recognized during the first and second quarters in connection with the sale of investment securities available-for-sale.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $40.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $28.4 million for the same period last year.  The increase in non-interest expense primarily related to a $9.5 million increase in other general and administrative costs primarily related to an increase in our accrual for FDIC quarterly insurance premiums and a special FDIC insurance assessment that will be paid during the third quarter of this year, and a $5.6 million increase in expenses associated with real estate owned and other foreclosed assets.  This increase primarily related to a $5.2 million provision recorded during the year in connection with a decline in the estimated fair value of these properties, as well as an increase of $1.8 million in costs incurred related to other real estate owned.  This increase was partially offset by a $2.5 million decline in compensation and benefits, which was primarily related to a workforce reduction.  Our efficiency ratio was 87.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to 59.5% for the same period last year.  The increase in our efficiency ratio was primarily caused by the $6.5 million increase in general and administrative expenses and the $7.6 million decrease in net interest income.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes was $19.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.  During the current period, the Company established a valuation allowance on the remaining net deferred tax asset due to uncertainty related to our ability to realize these assets.  In connection with management’s assessment of its deferred tax asset, it was determined that it was more likely than not that these assets will not be realized.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
Total assets decreased $232.0 million to $4.2 billion at June 30, 2009, compared to $4.4 billion at December 31, 2008.  The decrease in total assets was primarily due to a decline in our cash and cash equivalents caused by the reduction in our FHLB advances and other borrowings.  FHLB advances and other borrowings declined by $120.4 million during the current period.  The decline in assets was further impacted by a $139.0 million decrease in loans caused primarily by loan paydowns received, charge-offs incurred on non-performing loans and the transfer of loans to other real estate owned during the current year-to-date period.  Investment securities held-to-maturity also declined by $91.9 million caused by the normal amortization of these securities and the impact of an OTTI charge incurred during the quarter.  The decrease in total assets was partially offset by a $158.2 million increase in investment securities available-for-sale and a $26.3 million increase in our other real estate owned.  Additionally, brokered deposits decreased to $677.6 million at June 30, 2009, compared to $739.9 million at December 31, 2008.  We expect these deposits to decline further as they continue to mature in the future.  Approximately $174.8 million of our brokered deposits mature within the next twelve months.  Management believes that a significant portion of non-brokered time deposits will remain with us upon maturity based on our historical experience regarding retention of deposits.  At June 30, 2009, gross loans totaled $2.7 billion, including approximately $2.6 billion of real estate loans, $40.5 million of entertainment finance loans, and $9.4 million of other loans.

The Company recognized an $11.3 million OTTI during the three months ended June 30, 2009 on three held-to-maturity corporate sponsored CMOs, of which $2.6 million was identified as credit related and was recorded in earnings.  These OTTI charges were determined based on anticipated adverse changes to the projected cash flows for each of these securities caused by, among other things, an increase in projected collateral losses, a change in historical prepayment speeds, and a deterioration in the current level of subordination.  The Company also recognized a $1.0 million OTTI during the three months ended June 30, 2009 on an available-for-sale corporate bond.  The entire $1.0 million was identified as a credit related OTTI charge and, accordingly, was recognized in earnings.  This OTTI was primarily due to a downgrade in the credit rating of the bond to below investment grade and a substantial deterioration in the underlying collateral, which primarily consists of trust preferred securities issued by banks and insurance companies geographically dispersed across the United States.  As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, investment securities held-to-maturity had gross unrealized losses of $168.7 million and $235.8 million, respectively.  Management does not have the intent to sell the securities classified as held-to-maturity nor is it more likely than not that the Company will have to sell these securities before the recovery of their cost basis or, in the case of securities accounted for under SOP 03-3, the contractually required payments less the nonaccretable difference.  Furthermore, management also does not have the intent to sell the securities classified as available-for-sale nor is it more likely than not that the Company will have to sell these securities before the recovery of their cost basis. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as these securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline.  Management does not believe any of our securities, with the exception of the nonaccretable difference identified at acquisition with respect to the investments accounted for under SOP 03-3, are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, management believes the investment impairments are temporary.

Liquidity

Liquidity refers to our ability to maintain cash flows adequate to fund operations and meet obligations and other commitments on a timely basis, including the payment of maturing deposits and the origination or purchase of new loans.  We maintain a cash and investment securities portfolio designed to satisfy operating liquidity requirements while preserving capital and maximizing yield.  As of June 30, 2009, we held $273.7 million of cash and cash equivalents (consisting primarily of short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less) and $305.0 million of investment securities classified as available-for-sale.

Short-term fixed income investments classified as cash equivalents consisted of interest bearing deposits at financial institutions, overnight repurchase agreement investments, government money market funds and short-term government agency securities, while investment securities available-for-sale consisted primarily of fixed income instruments, which were rated “AAA”, or equivalent by nationally recognized rating agencies.

In March 2009, our credit facility with the FHLB of San Francisco was suspended until further notice.  As a result, the Bank is prohibited from receiving any additional FHLB advances until this suspension is lifted.  Additionally, in March 2009, the Bank’s $30.0 million repurchase agreement borrowing was called by the lender prior to its maturity.  The Bank incurred a $1.1 million fee in 2009 in connection with the early settlement of this borrowing.  As of June 30, 2009, we had a borrowing capacity under the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco credit facility of $19.3 million.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, our $68.0 million of uncommitted, unsecured lines of credit with three unaffiliated financial institutions were cancelled. As a result of the Bank’s “undercapitalized” status, the Bank may not accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits and the Bank may not solicit deposits yielding more than 75 basis points over prevailing rates in either the Bank’s market area or the area where deposits are solicited.  We do, however, believe although these credit facilities are not presently available to us and we cannot add or renew brokered deposits and we are restricted in the rates we can offer on deposits, that our current liquidity position, on-going cashflow from operations, and retail deposits will meet our anticipated funding needs.

Capital Resources

The Bank had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2009 of 4.24%, 5.52% and 6.78%, respectively, which represents $10.5 million, $51.8 million and ($41.5) million, respectively, of capital in excess (deficit) of the amount required to be “adequately capitalized” for regulatory purposes.  These ratios were 6.04%, 8.04% and 9.30% as of December 31, 2008, respectively.

The Company, the Bank’s holding company, had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2009 of 3.26%, 4.26% and 6.91%, respectively.  These ratios were 5.63%, 7.50% and 9.41% as of December 31, 2008, respectively.

Based on the Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio, the Bank was undercapitalized at June 30, 2009. As a result of not being “adequately capitalized,” the Bank’s borrowing costs and terms from the Federal Reserve Bank, the FHLB of San Francisco (which has suspended the Bank’s credit facility) and other financial institutions, as well as the Bank’s premiums to the Deposit Insurance Fund, may increase further.

At June 30, 2009, shareholders' equity totaled $97.7 million, or 2.3% of total assets.  Our book value per share of common stock was $19.25 as of June 30, 2009, as compared to $37.76 as of December 31, 2008, and $44.88 as of June 30, 2008.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our estimated sensitivity to interest rate risk, as measured by the estimated interest earnings sensitivity profile and the interest sensitivity gap analysis, has not materially changed from the information disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)) was carried out as of June 30, 2009 under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company’s senior management.  In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet, and management believes that they meet, reasonable assurance standards.  Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Executive Committee of the Board of Directors  and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2009, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:  During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, no change occurred in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

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

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
We are party to certain legal proceedings incidental to our business.  Management believes that the outcome of such currently pending proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I. Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The valuation of the Company’s investment securities and the determination of any other-than-temporary impairment with respect to these securities is highly subjective and our regulators may not agree with our analyses.

At June 30, 2009, we maintained a $744.3 million investment portfolio of corporate sponsored collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) that are classified as held-to-maturity.  These CMOs are secured by Alt A first lien residential mortgage loans geographically dispersed across the United States.  At June 30, 2009 the fair value of these securities was $585.4 million.  Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses.  The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.  During the three months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recognized an $11.3 million other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on three held-to-maturity corporate sponsored CMOs, of which $2.6 million was identified as credit related and was recorded in earnings.  These OTTI charges were determined based on anticipated adverse changes to the projected cash flows for each of these securities caused by, among other things, an increase in projected collateral losses, a change in historical prepayment speeds, and a deterioration in the current level of subordination.

We closely monitor these and our other investment securities for changes in credit risk. The valuation of our investment securities and the determination of any OTTI with respect to such securities is highly complex and involves a comprehensive process, including quantitative modeling and significant judgment.   The valuation of our investment securities will also continue to be influenced by external market and other factors, including implementation of Securities and Exchange Commission and Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance on fair value accounting, and default rates of specific CMOs, rating agency actions, and the prices at which observable market transactions occur.  The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to valuation changes in our CMO securities by selling them.  Accordingly, if market conditions deteriorate further and we determine our holdings of these or other investment securities have additional OTTI, our future earnings, shareholders' equity, regulatory capital and continuing operations could be materially adversely affected.

In addition, as with other areas involving the highly subjective determination of amounts by management, there remains the possibility that the Company’s and the Bank’s regulators will disagree with management’s valuation and OTTI analyses with respect to our investment securities and require further write-downs in the values of these securities and the recognition of additional OTTI charges.  This could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and capital.

Certain regulatory actions were recently taken against us, and additional restrictions apply to us as a result of the Bank’s “undercapitalized” status.

On February 17, 2009, the Bank entered into a stipulation and consent to the issuance of a February 17, 2009 order to cease and desist (the “Order”) by the FDIC and the DFI.  Under the terms of the Order, a formal corrective action, the Bank has agreed to take certain measures in the areas of management, capital, loan loss allowance determination, risk management, liquidity management, board oversight and monitoring of compliance, and restricts payment of dividends and the opening of branch or other Bank offices. Specifically, the Order required that the Bank submit to the regulators a detailed capital plan to address how the Bank would remain “adequately capitalized” and by August 11, 2009 increase its Tier 1 leverage ratio above 9% and total risk-based capital ratio above 13%; the Bank did not meet those increased capital requirement by that date.  The Bank also was required to submit to the regulators a revised policy for determining the allowance for loan losses, plans for reducing commercial real estate loan concentrations and brokered deposits, a liquidity plan, strategic business plan and profitability plan. The Bank must furnish periodic progress reports to the FDIC and DFI regarding its compliance with the order.

In addition, the FRB San Francisco has notified ICB that it may not appoint any new director or senior executive officer or change the responsibilities of any current senior executive officers without notifying the FRB San Francisco.  Further, ICB may not make indemnification and severance payments without complying with certain statutory restrictions, including prior written approval of the Federal Reserve Board and concurrence from the FDIC.  ICB is also generally prohibited from receiving dividends from the Bank, making any dividend payments to shareholders or distributions on its trust preferred securities), and increasing or renewing any debt, without receiving the prior approval from the FRB San Francisco.  These restrictions are also contained in a written agreement that the Company entered into with the FRB San Francisco and the DFI on July 28, 2009, which also requires the Company to submit to the FRB San Francisco and the DFI a plan to maintain adequate capital on a consolidated basis and at the Bank level.

The Bank’s regulatory capital position has fallen below the level necessary to be considered “well capitalized” and was categorized as “undercapitalized” as of June 30, 2009.   “Undercapitalized” banks may not accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits or solicit deposits yielding more than 75 basis points over prevailing rates in either the Bank’s market area or the area where deposits are solicited.  The Bank’s “undercapitalized” status subjects it to additional regulatory restrictions that are generally consistent with the restrictions identified within the Order and include, among others, that the Bank generally may not make any capital distributions, must submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to the FDIC, may not increase its average total assets during a calendar quarter in excess of its average total assets during the preceding calendar quarter unless any increase in total assets is consistent with the capital restoration plan approved by the FDIC and the Bank’s ratio of tangible equity to total assets increases during the calendar quarter at a rate sufficient to enable the Bank to become adequately capitalized within a reasonable time, and may not acquire a business, establish or acquire a branch office or engage in a new line of business without regulatory approval. In addition, as part of the required capital restoration plan, the Company must guarantee that the Bank will return to adequately capitalized status and provide appropriate assurances of performance of that guarantee.

Our failure to comply with the Order, FRB San Francisco notification or the written agreement with the FRB San Francisco and the DFI may result in additional regulatory action, including the assessment of civil money penalties against the Company and Bank and their respective officers and directors or enforcement of the Order or that agreement through court proceedings.

Our deposit insurance premiums and assessments have increased substantially, and are more likely than not to remain at or above this level, which will increase our non-interest expenses and adversely affect our operating results.
    
Our FDIC deposit insurance assessments increased significantly in 2009 due to higher assessment rates. In addition, in May 2009, the FDIC approved a rule providing for a special assessment on all insured depository institutions of five basis points based on the institution’s total assets less Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009, not to exceed ten basis points times the institution’s deposit assessment base.  Two additional special assessments, each of the same amount, may be imposed on all institutions for the third and fourth quarters of 2009.

We expect that our FDIC insurance-related expenses will continue to remain high, which will increase significantly our non-interest expenses and adversely affect our operating results.

Concerns of customers over deposit insurance may cause a decrease in deposits.
 
With recent increased concerns about bank failures, customers increasingly are concerned about the extent to which their deposits are insured by the FDIC. Customers may withdraw deposits in an effort to ensure that the amount they have on deposit with their bank is fully insured. Decreases in deposits may adversely our liquidity, funding costs, financial condition and operating results.
