PART I

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Pacific Capital Bancorp (the “Company”) intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in these provisions. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, statements about anticipated future operating and financial performance, financial position and liquidity, business prospects, strategic alternatives, business strategies, regulatory and competitive outlook, investment and expenditure plans, capital and financing needs and availability, acquisition and divestiture opportunities, plans and objectives of management for future operations, and other similar forecasts and statements of expectation and statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Words such as “will likely result,” “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “hopes,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “projects,” “seeks,” “should,” “will,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the regulatory environment, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. The Company cautions the reader of these statements therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  ¡  

inability to continuously satisfy the higher minimum capital ratios that Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, N.A. (the “Bank” or “SBB&T”) is required to maintain pursuant to the Operating Agreement dated September 2, 2010 (the “Operating Agreement”) by and between the Bank and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”);

 

  ¡  

the effect of other requirements of the Operating Agreement and the requirements of the Consent Order issued by the OCC on May 11, 2010 (as modified, the “Consent Order”) and the Written Agreement dated May 11, 2010 (“Written Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the “Reserve Bank”), and any further regulatory actions;

 

  ¡  

inability to generate assets on acceptable terms or at all;

 

  ¡  

Management’s ability to effectively execute the Company’s business plan;

 

  ¡  

inability to raise additional capital, if and when necessary, on acceptable terms or at all;

 

  ¡  

inability to receive dividends from the Bank;

 

  ¡  

costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments, including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries, and the results of regulatory examinations or reviews;

 

  ¡  

changes in capital classification;

 

  ¡  

the impact of current economic conditions and the Company’s results of operations on its ability to borrow additional funds to meet its liquidity needs;

 

  ¡  

local, regional, national and international economic conditions and events and the impact they may have on the Company and its customers;

 

  ¡  

changes in the economy affecting real estate values;

 

  ¡  

inability to attract and retain deposits;

 

  ¡  

changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs;

  ¡

  ¡  

changes in the Company’s organization, management, compensation and benefit plans;

 

  ¡

  ¡

  ¡  

inability to maintain or increase market share and control expenses;

 

  ¡  

impact of reputational risk on such matters as business generation and retention, funding and liquidity;

 

  ¡  

rating agency downgrades;

 

  ¡  

continued volatility in the credit and equity markets and its effect on the general economy;

 

  ¡  

effect of changes in laws and regulations (including enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and other changes in laws concerning banking, taxes and securities) with which the Company and its subsidiaries must comply;

 

  ¡  

effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and other accounting standard setters;

 

  ¡  

other factors that are described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Form 10-K”); and

 

  ¡  

the Company’s success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Pacific Capital Bancorp is a bank holding company organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Company provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking services to households, professionals, and businesses through its wholly-owned subsidiary Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, National Association. These banking services include depository, lending and wealth management services. The Bank’s lending products include commercial and industrial (“commercial”), consumer, commercial and residential real estate loans and Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans. Depository services include checking, interest bearing checking (“NOW”), money market demand accounts (“MMDA”), savings, and Certificate of Deposit (“CD”) accounts, as well as safe deposit boxes, travelers’ checks, money orders, foreign exchange services, and cashier’s checks. The Bank also offers a wide range of wealth management services through a full service trust operation and two registered investment advisors that are wholly-owned subsidiaries, Morton Capital Management (“MCM”) and R.E. Wacker Associates (“REWA”).

SBB&T conducts its banking in the counties of Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and San Benito under the Santa Barbara Bank & Trust brand name. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company announced a change in the legal name of its wholly-owned nationally chartered banking subsidiary from Pacific Capital Bank, National Association to Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, National Association.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Pacific Capital Bancorp are unaudited and, in the opinion of Management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and conform to practices within the financial services industry. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011. The Consolidated Financial Statements refer to “Management” within the disclosures. The Company’s definition of Management is the executive management team of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Although Management believes these estimates to be reasonably accurate, actual amounts may differ. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary have been reflected in the financial statements during their preparation. Certain amounts in the 2010 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to be comparable with classifications used in the 2011 Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

On December 28, 2010, the Company effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split, reducing its authorized common shares from 5 billion to 50 million. Outstanding shares were reduced from 3.29 billion to 32.9 million. All outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase stock, and their respective exercise prices, were adjusted for this reverse stock split. All per share amounts for both the Predecessor Company and the Successor Company in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been restated to reflect this reverse stock split.

Recapitalization through the Investment Transaction and Purchase Accounting

On August 31, 2010, pursuant to the terms of an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”), dated as of April 29, 2010, by and among the Company, the Bank and SB Acquisition Company LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ford Financial Fund, L.P. (the “Investor”), the Company issued to the Investor (i) 2,250,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $20.00 per share and (ii) 455,000 newly created shares of its Series C Convertible Participating Voting Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $1,000 per share (the purchase and sale of these securities, the “Investment Transaction”). The aggregate consideration paid to the Company by the Investor for these securities was $500 million in cash.

As a result of the Investment Transaction, pursuant to which the Investor acquired and controlled 98.1% of the voting securities of the Company, the Company followed the acquisition or purchase method of accounting as required by the Business Combinations Topic of the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Under the rules of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin T. 5J, New Basis of Accounting Required in Certain Circumstances (“SEC SAB T. 5J”) or ASC 805-50-S99, the application of “push down” accounting is required.

As a result of the adjustments required by purchase accounting, the Company’s balance sheets and results of operations from periods through August 31, 2010 are labeled as “Predecessor Company” and are not comparable to balance sheets and results of operations from periods after the close of business on August 31, 2010 (the “Transaction Date”), which are labeled as “Successor Company.” Purchase accounting requires that the assets purchased, the liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests all be reported in the acquirer’s financial statements at their fair value, with any excess of purchase consideration over the net assets being reported as goodwill. Although the $500 million in cash from the Investor was received on August 31, 2010, the purchase accounting adjustments are reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements after the close of business on the Transaction Date. The purchase accounting transactions are reflected within the Successor Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Acquisition accounting requires that the valuation of assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests be recorded in the acquiree’s records as well. Accordingly, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and transactional records prior to the Investment Transaction reflect the historical accounting basis of assets and liabilities and are labeled “Predecessor Company,” while such records subsequent to the Investment Transaction are labeled “Successor Company” and reflect the push down basis of accounting for the new fair values in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. This change in accounting basis is represented in the Consolidated Financial Statements by a vertical black line which appears between the columns entitled “Successor Company” and “Predecessor Company” on the statements or in separate tables labeled “Successor Company” and “Predecessor Company,” and in the relevant notes of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The black line signifies that the amounts shown for the periods prior to and subsequent to the Investment Transaction may not be comparable.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

In addition to the new accounting basis established for assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests, purchase accounting requires the reclassification of any retained earnings from periods prior to the acquisition to be recognized as common share equity and the elimination of any accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) or loss and paid in capital within the Company’s Shareholders’ Equity section of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, retained earnings and OCI since the Transaction Date represent only the results of operations subsequent to the Transaction Date.

Consolidation of Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities

The Company has five wholly-owned subsidiaries: SBB&T, a banking subsidiary, and four unconsolidated subsidiaries used as business trusts in connection with issuance of trust preferred securities as described in Note 17, “Long Term Debt and Other Borrowings” of the 2010 Form 10-K.

SBB&T has three wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries:

 

  ¡  

MCM and REWA, registered investment advisors that provide investment advisory services to individuals, foundations, retirement plans and select institutional clients, and

 

  ¡  

PCB Service Corporation, utilized as a trustee of deeds of trust in which SBB&T is the beneficiary.

SBB&T also retains ownership in several low income housing tax credit partnerships (“LIHTCP”) that generate tax credits. These partnerships are not consolidated into these Consolidated Financial Statements. These investments historically have played a significant role in meeting SBB&T’s Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) requirements as well as providing tax credits to reduce the Company’s taxable income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the following accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company were issued or became effective:

In January 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-01, Receivables (Topic 310): Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20 (“ASU 2011-01”). The ASU 2011-01 is temporarily delayed and the effective date has not been finalized. The ASU 2011-01 disclosures for troubled debt restructurings are delayed until the FASB completes its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The ASU clarifies which loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructuring and is intended to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meet the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring, both for purposes of recording an impairment loss and for disclosure of troubled debt restructurings. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The guidance was effective for the Company on July 1, 2011 and applies retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after January 1, 2011. At the same time it adopts ASU 2011-02, the Company will be required to disclose the activity-based information about trouble debt restructuring (“TDRs”) that was previously deferred by ASU No. 2011-01. The adoption of the new guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS”), which updates Topic 820: Fair Value Measurements. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income which updates Topic 220: Comprehensive Income. The FASB’s objective in updating this area of the codification is to increase comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This update requires all non-owner changes in stockholder’s equity to be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. The provisions of this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which updates Topic 350: Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The provisions of ASU 2011-08 permit an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the entity must then perform a quantitative analysis in its test for impairment. The provisions of ASU 2011-08 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied to annual and interim goodwill impairment testing. Early adoption is permitted provided that the entity has not yet performed its annual impairment test for goodwill. The adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash Reserve Requirement

All depository institutions are required by law to maintain reserves against their transaction deposits. The reserves must be held in cash or with the Reserve Bank. The amount of the reserve may vary each day as banks are permitted to meet this requirement by maintaining the specified amount as an average balance over a two week period. In addition, the Bank must maintain sufficient balances to cover the checks written by bank customers that are clearing through the Reserve Bank because they have been deposited at other banks.

Trading Assets

The identification of a trading asset is determined at the time of purchase. Trading securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Trading assets are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their estimated fair value. The changes in the fair value of the trading securities are reported in noninterest income as they occur. All trading assets were transferred to the available for sale (“AFS”) portfolio at the Transaction Date.

Investment Securities

All investment securities are debt securities and are classified as AFS. The appropriate classification is determined at the time of purchase. Securities classified as AFS are reported as an asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their estimated fair value. As the fair value of AFS securities changes, the changes are reported (net of income tax, if applicable) as an element of OCI. When AFS securities, specifically identified, are sold, the unrealized gain or loss is reclassified from OCI to noninterest income.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

When the estimated fair value of a security is lower than the book value, a security is considered to be temporarily impaired. On a quarterly basis, Management evaluates any securities in a loss position to determine whether the impairment is other-than-temporary. If there is intent to sell the security or if the Company will be required to sell the security or if the Company believes it will not recover the entire cost basis of the security, the security is other-than-temporarily impaired and impairment is recognized. The amount of impairment resulting from credit loss is recognized in earnings and impairment related to all other factors, such as general market conditions, is recognized in OCI.

Interest income is recognized based on the coupon rate and is increased by the accretion of discounts earned or decreased by the amortization of premiums paid over the contractual life of the security using the effective interest method.

The Bank is a member of both the Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), and as a condition of membership in both organizations, it is required to purchase stock. In the case of the Reserve Bank, the amount of stock that is required to be held is based on the Bank’s capital. The required ownership of FHLB stock is based on the borrowing capacity used by the Bank. These investments are considered equity securities with no actively traded market. Therefore, the shares are considered restricted investment securities and reported in FHLB and other investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such investments are carried at cost, which is equal to the value at which they may be redeemed. The dividend income received from the stock is reported in interest income.

Loans Held for Sale

Periodically, the Company originates or identifies loans it expects to sell prior to maturity. When loans are originated or identified to be sold, they are recorded as held for sale and reported at the lower of cost or fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The loan’s cost basis includes unearned deferred fees and costs, and premiums and discounts. These loans are generally held between 30 to 90 days from their origination date. Due to the short period of time loans are held for sale, deferred fees or expenses are not amortized. If a loan has been reported as held for sale and is then determined that it is unlikely to be sold, the loan is reclassified to loans held for investment at the lower of cost or fair value. The majority of loans held for sale by the Company are residential real estate loans. Loans classified as held for sale are disclosed in Note 4, “Loans” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loans Held for Investment

Loans held for investment, except for Purchased Credit Impaired (“PCI”) Loan Pools described below, are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any unearned income, cumulative charge-offs, unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

Loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date are included in “Loans Held for Investment” within these Consolidated Financial Statements and are referred to within these Consolidated Financial Statements as “Loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date.” At September 30, 2011 and at December 31, 2010, a majority of the loans reported as Loans Held for Investment are PCI Loan Pools. The accounting for PCI Loan Pools is significantly different from the accounting for loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

The accounting policies for the loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date are covered within this section, while the accounting for PCI Loan Pools is described in the section below called “Accounting for PCI Loan Pools.”

Interest income on all loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date is accrued daily, except for loans in a nonaccrual status. Loan fees collected for the origination of loans less direct loan origination costs (net deferred loan fees) are amortized over the contractual life of the loan through interest income. If a loan has scheduled payments, the amortization of the net deferred loan fee is calculated using the effective interest method over the contractual life of the loan. If the loan does not have scheduled payments, such as a line of credit, the net deferred loan fee is recognized as interest income on a straight line basis over the contractual life of the loan commitment. Loan fees received for loan commitments are recognized as interest income over the term of the commitment. When loans are repaid, any remaining unamortized balances of unearned fees, deferred fees and costs and premiums and discounts paid on purchased loans are accounted for through interest income.

Unfunded Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit

Letters and lines of credit are commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit to the Company’s customers. These commitments meet the financing needs of the Company’s customers in the normal course of business and are commitments with “off-balance sheet” risk since the Company has committed to issuing funds to or on behalf of customers, but there is no current loan outstanding. Included in unfunded loan commitments are secured and unsecured lines of credit.

Lines of credit are obligations to lend money to a borrower. Credit risk arises when the borrowers’ current financial condition may indicate less ability to pay than when the commitment was originally made. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party in borrowing arrangements. In the case of standby letters of credit, the risk arises from the possibility of the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of a contract. In such a situation, the third party might draw on the standby letter of credit to pay for completion of the contract and the Company would have to look to its customer to repay these funds to the Company with interest. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it would for a loan to that customer.

The Company has exposure to losses from unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. Since the funds have not been disbursed on these commitments, they are not reported as loans outstanding. Losses related to these commitments are not included in the allowance for loan and lease losses reported in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of these Consolidated Financial Statements. Instead, they are accounted for as a separate loss contingency or reserve within other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The reserve for unfunded commitments is an estimate of losses inherent in loan commitments which have not funded. The determination of the reserve for unfunded commitments applies the same historical loss rates and qualitative factors to the unfunded commitments using the same credit risk characteristics in calculating the allowance for loan and lease losses and then applies estimates regarding usage of the unfunded commitments.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

Prior to the funding of a loan, the Company may provide an interest rate lock commitment for mortgage loans that will be originated with the intent to sell. The Company may also enter into mandatory delivery contracts, which are loan sale agreements in which the Company has committed to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to a third party investor at a specified price on or before a specified date. These interest rate lock commitments and mandatory delivery contracts qualify as derivatives under GAAP. The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments is based on the change in interest rates between the date the interest rate lock commitment is executed and the date the loan is funded. The fair value of the mandatory delivery contracts is calculated by comparing the price on the contract accepted date to the price on the actual sale date. The fair value of these derivatives is reported as other assets or other liabilities and changes in the fair values are reflected through noninterest income in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting for PCI Loan Pools

Loans acquired in a transfer, including business combinations, where there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the acquirer will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments, are accounted for using the guidance for PCI Loan Pools, which is contained in the ASC 310-30, Receivables, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (“ASC 310-30”). In addition, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) reached an understanding with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that permits an acquirer to elect to account for acquired loans that are not impaired by means of expected cash flows rather than contractual cash flows. This understanding is documented in a letter from the AICPA to the SEC dated December 18, 2009. The Company has elected an accounting policy to apply expected cash flows accounting guidance to all loans subject to the business combination and push-down accounting requirements for loan portfolios acquired in a business combination and will herein be referred to as “PCI Term Pools.”

Some loans that otherwise meet the definition of credit impaired, such as revolving lines of credit, are specifically excluded from the scope of the accounting guidance in ASC 310-30 and are accounted for using ASC 310-20, Receivables, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (“ASC 310-20”). However, Management considers these revolving lines of credit to also be credit impaired and has pooled these revolving lines of credit purchased through the Investment Transaction and herein will refer to these loans as “PCI Revolving Pools.”

PCI Term Pools

PCI Term Pools are initially recorded at fair value, and any related allowance for loan and lease losses from before the acquisition cannot be carried over. Fair value is determined by estimating the principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected after discounting at the prevailing market rate of interest. The difference between contractual cash flows and expected cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, represents the nonaccretable difference. The difference between undiscounted expected cash flows and discounted expected cash flows represents the accretable yield. The Company’s estimated expected cash flows on PCI Loan Pools take into consideration estimated prepayments based on the characteristics of the loans contained in each loan pool and expected charge-offs and recoveries of the PCI Loan Pools. The accretable yield is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the pool of loans using the effective yield method or cost recovery method if cash flows are not estimable.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

Management has elected to have PCI Loan Pools aggregated into several pools based on common risk characteristics as allowed under ASC 310-30. Each pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows. Both the accretion of interest income and the comparison of actual cash flows to expected cash flows are completed at the pool level rather than by individual loans. The Company has aggregated all of the loans acquired at the Transaction Date into the pools. Loans may not be removed from a pool, added to a pool, or moved from one pool to another. All activity such as payments, charge-offs, recoveries, and prepayments received are applied to the loan pool in which the loan was placed at the Transaction Date. Payments which are in excess of expectations in one pool may not be applied to other pools to avoid the recognition of impairment for deficient payments within another pool. Only the disposal of a loan, which may include sales of loans to third parties, payoff or prepayment by the borrower, foreclosure of the collateral, or charge-off will result in the removal of a loan from a loan pool. When a loan is removed from a pool, it is removed at its carrying amount.

The Company periodically compares actual cash flows to expected cash flows for PCI Term Pools to determine whether such cash flows are substantially the same as was expected at the time the loans expected cash flows were last estimated. Differences in actual cash flows from that previously expected may result in a revision to the Company’s estimate for expected cash flows. If upon reevaluation of expected cash flows the Company determines they will be less than previously estimated, an allowance for loan losses is established through a charge to the provision for loan losses and an impairment is recorded. If reevaluation of expected cash flows indicates there is a significant and probable increase over that previously expected, the Company would decrease any previously established allowance, and then record an increase to interest income through the adjustment of the discount rate used to calculate the accretable yield.

Because PCI Term Pools are written down at acquisition to an amount estimated to be collectible and aggregated into pools, the classification and disclosures are at pool levels regardless of the underlying individual loan performance. PCI Term Pools are not reported as delinquent, nonaccrual, impaired or TDRs even though some of the underlying loans may be contractually past due, on nonaccrual, impaired or TDRs as the pool is evaluated as a single unit of account.

PCI Revolving Pools

As mentioned above, acquired loans which are revolving are excluded from ASC 310-30. The accounting for purchase discounts on pooled revolving lines of credit is required in accordance with ASC 310-20. Individual revolving lines of credit that had been originated prior to the Investment Transaction were placed in pools with similar risk characteristics. PCI Revolving Pools were recorded at fair value at the Transaction Date, similar to PCI Term Pools, based on expected cash flows, which included estimated losses inherent in the pool at the Transaction Date. A new carrying amount is established for PCI Revolving Pools based on its fair value, which represents its net realizable value. The difference between the former carrying value and the net realizable value is the purchase discount.

Because of the uncertainty in the underlying cash flows associated with the PCI Revolving Pools at the Transaction Date, Management has determined that the purchase discount should not be accreted until it is significantly probable that the net realizable value exceeds the net carrying amount. Therefore, the Company has only recorded interest income on these pools at the contractual rate to the extent considered collectible. Management periodically reassesses the net realizable value of each PCI Revolving Pool and records interest income relating to the purchase discount in accordance with ASC 310-20. Such amounts are recognized in income on a straight line basis over the period the revolving line of credit is active, assuming that borrowings are outstanding for the maximum term provided in the loan contract. In the event that credit losses are higher than expectations, the Company records an allowance to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the amounts expected to be collected.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

Unlike PCI Term Pools, accounting guidance requires that disclosures be made on the underlying loans in PCI Revolving Pools even though such loans were written down to fair value on the Transaction Date. As a result, the underlying loans in PCI Revolving Pools are reported as contractually delinquent, nonaccrual, impaired, or TDRs to the extent applicable.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Credit risk is inherent in the business of extending loans and leases to borrowers. Normally, this credit risk is addressed through a valuation allowance termed Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”). The ALLL represents a creditor’s estimate of loan losses inherent within the loan portfolio at each balance sheet date. Netted against the outstanding loan balance, this allowance reduces the carrying amount to the creditor’s estimate of what will be collected from borrowers. The ALLL is established through charges to current period earnings by recording a provision for loan losses. When losses become specifically identifiable and quantifiable, the carrying amount is reduced through recording a charge-off against the ALLL. Should payments be received on charged-off loans, the payment is credited to the allowance as a recovery.

Charge-offs of loans are generally processed by policy as well as by regulatory guidance. Secured consumer loans, including residential real estate loans, that are 120 days past due are written down to the fair value of the collateral. Unsecured consumer loans are charged-off once the loan is 120 days past due. Decisions on when to charge-off commercial loans and loans secured by commercial real estate are made on an individual basis rather than length of delinquency, though it is a factor in the decision. The financial resources of the borrower and/or guarantor and the nature and value of any collateral are other factors considered. It is also more common among these business loans to charge-off or write down portions of the balance than with consumer loans other than real estate.

The purchase accounting guidance for business combinations significantly impacted the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses as of the Transaction Date. The revaluation of assets required by this accounting guidance resulted in all loans being reported at their fair value as of the Transaction Date. The fair value is presumed to take into account the contractual payments on loans that are not expected to be received, and consequently no allowance for loan and lease losses was carried over for the Company’s loans as of the Transaction Date. Subsequent to the Transaction Date, the ALLL is comprised of the Company’s estimate of losses inherent in successor loans originated and purchased since the Transaction Date; the differential between current expected cash flows and prior expected cash flows for PCI Term Pools when current expected cash flows are less than prior expected cash flows; and the amount of credit losses inherent in PCI Revolving Pools in excess of the net realizable value.

Credit risk ratings of large problem loans in the commercial loan portfolio (loans secured by multifamily real estate, loans secured by commercial real estate, loans secured by the construction of multifamily or commercial real estate, commercial and industrial/commercial loans, and other) are reviewed, at a minimum, quarterly. A credit risk rating for a commercial loan may be assessed and generally require a credit risk rating change when the following events occur:

 

  ¡  

new credit requests,

 

  ¡  

loan renewals,

Credit risk ratings in the consumer loan portfolio (term and revolving loans secured by residential real estate for 1 to 4 families, secured consumer loans, and unsecured lines of credit for consumer loans) are assessed and generally require a credit risk rating change when the following events occur:

 

  ¡  

new credit requests,

 

  ¡  

deterioration of credit score,

 

  ¡  

loan renewals,

 

  ¡  

appearance on delinquency reports,

 

  ¡  

identified facts demonstrate change in risk of nonpayment,

 

  ¡  

historical payment experience, and

 

  ¡  

contact with borrower provides new credit information.

The change in a borrower’s credit risk rating is not limited to the listing above. Quarterly, the Company’s credit administration department obtains a credit score refreshment report which assesses consumer loan borrower’s credit scores to identify borrowers which could have a deterioration of credit score which would trigger a credit risk rating change for a borrower.

Once a credit risk rating is assessed for a loan, its classification is determined based on the expectation of repayment. Nonclassified loans generally include those loans that are expected to be repaid in accordance with contractual loan terms. Classified loans are those loans that are classified as substandard or doubtful consistent with regulatory guidelines.

Loans Classified as Substandard

A substandard loan is a loan which is inadequately protected by a current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged, if any. The extension of credit has a well defined weakness and/or the Company identifies a distinct possibility that a loss will be incurred if the deficiency identified is not corrected. When a loan is classified as substandard it does not necessarily imply there is a loss exposure in a specific loan, but a loss potential does exist.

 

22


Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

 

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

Loans Classified as Doubtful

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

After reviewing the credit risk ratings in the loan portfolio, the second step is to develop an estimate of the loss inherent in individual loans or groups of similar loans. The estimation of probable losses takes into consideration the loan credit risk ratings and other factors such as:

 

  ¡  

loan balances,

 

  ¡  

loan pool segmentation,

 

  ¡  

historical loss analysis,

 

  ¡  

identification, review, and valuation of impaired loans,

 

  ¡  

changes in the economy impacting lending activities,

 

  ¡  

changes in the concentrations of various loan types,

 

  ¡  

changes in the growth rate or volume of lending activities,

 

  ¡  

changes in the trends for delinquent and problem loans,

 

  ¡  

changes in the control environment or procedures,

 

  ¡  

changes in the management and staffing effectiveness,

 

  ¡  

changes in the loan review effectiveness,

 

  ¡  

changes in the underlying collateral values of loans,

 

  ¡  

changes in the competition/regulatory/legal issues,

 

  ¡  

unanticipated events, and

 

  ¡  

changes and additional valuation for structured financing and syndicated national credits.

The amount of the allowance recorded at the end of the prior reporting period is then compared with the new estimate of inherent loss. If additional allowance is required to cover the revised estimate, the additional amount is provided through a charge to provision for loan losses. If the recorded allowance is higher than the revised estimate, the allowance is reduced by a negative provision for loan losses.

For PCI Loan Pools, which represent 89.5% of the carrying value of the Company’s loans held for investment at September 30, 2011, there is no ALLL unless further deterioration of credit quality has occurred since the Transaction Date. These loans were recorded at fair value as of the Transaction Date based on the acquirer’s estimate of collections to be received. In addition, each quarter, Management must make a determination whether the estimate of expected cash flows from these loans needs to be revised. This determination is based on actual cash flows received and any information available about the borrowers and their financial condition that would lead Management to conclude that expected cash flows will be substantially different from what was estimated at the end of the last accounting period. Of the factors noted above for PCI Loan Pools, those that relate specifically to the borrower, to the economy, and to credit deterioration seen for similar borrowers or similar businesses or industries will be most relevant.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

As is indicated in the section above for PCI Loan Pools, the Company has aggregated all of these loans into pools with similar risk characteristics that have become the individual units of accounting. The estimates of expected cash flows are therefore calculated at the pool level. An unfavorable change in the estimate of expected cash flows due to credit may require the recognition of impairment by establishing an ALLL on a pool by pool basis. A favorable change in the estimate of expected cash flows – where it is significantly probable that the net realizable value exceeds the net carrying amount – would result in reversing any allowance previously established because of an unfavorable change, but no negative provision is recorded if the favorable change exceeds any previously recorded allowance. Instead, the excess expected cash flows are accreted into income over the remaining estimated terms of the loans in the pool.

Further information on the allowance for loan loss is provided in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

ALLL Model Methodology

The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors when determining the level of estimated ALLL. Quantitative factors are based primarily on historical credit losses for each portfolio of similar loans over a time horizon or “look-back” period. The Company uses historical credit losses over the past six quarters as a basis for its quantitative factors.

Qualitative factors are used to adjust historical loss rates based on the Company’s estimate of the losses inherent in the outstanding loan portfolio that are not fully captured by the quantitative factors alone. Qualitative factors taken into consideration in calculations of the ALLL include: concentrations of types of loans, loan growth, control environment, delinquency and classified loan trends, Management and staffing experience and turnover, economic conditions, results of independent loan review, underlying collateral values, competition, regulatory, legal issues, structured finance and syndicated national credits, and other factors. These qualitative factors are applied as adjustments to the historical loss rates when Management believes they are necessary to better reflect current conditions.

Nonaccrual Loans, Impaired Loans, and Restructures of Troubled Debt

As discussed above in the PCI Loan Pools section, the accounting for purchased credit impaired loans has implications for classification and reporting disclosures of loans classified as nonaccrual, impaired, or TDRs. Because the Company’s loans were written down to fair value and pooled as of the Transaction Date, the carrying amount of these loans in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements is based upon amounts estimated to be collected. Term Pools are not classified as nonaccrual, impaired or TDRs even though some of the underlying loans may be contractually past due or nonperforming unlike the underlying loans in the PCI Revolving Pools which are required to be accounted for as delinquent, nonaccrual, impaired, or TDR. Quarterly, the individual pools are assessed for the overall collectability of the expected cash flows on a pool by pool basis.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

For all loans originated since the Transaction Date, when an individual borrower discontinues making payments as contractually required by the note, the Company must determine whether it is appropriate to continue to accrue interest. Generally, the Company places loans in a nonaccrual status and ceases recognizing interest income when the loan has become delinquent by more than 90 days and/or when Management determines that the repayment of principal and collection of interest is unlikely. The Company may decide that it is appropriate to continue to accrue interest on certain loans more than 90 days delinquent if they are well secured by collateral and collection is in process.

When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any accrued but uncollected interest for the loan is reversed out of interest income in the period in which the status is changed. Subsequent payments received from the customer are applied to principal and no further interest income is recognized until the principal has been paid in full or until circumstances have changed such that payments are again consistently received as contractually required. In the case of commercial customers, the pattern of payment must also be accompanied by a positive change in the financial condition of the borrower.

A loan is identified as impaired when it is probable that interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. However, there are some loans that are termed impaired because of doubt regarding collectability of interest and principal according to the contractual terms, but are both fully secured by collateral and are current in their interest and principal payments. Once a loan is identified as impaired, the amount of any impairment is determined based on the extent to which the Company’s recorded investment in the loan exceeds the loan’s estimated fair value. The Company determines an impaired loan’s fair value based on either the present value of the expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the collateral securing the loan. When using the fair value of the collateral securing an impaired loan as the basis for measuring impairment, the Company takes into consideration estimated costs to sell the collateral when determining it’s fair value. A valuation allowance is established for an impaired loan through a charge to earnings when the fair value of the loan is less than the Company’s recorded investment in the loan. An impaired loan may be placed back on accrual if the loan is no longer considered to be impaired. For additional information in obtaining the fair value of a loan, refer to Note 2, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

A loan may be restructured when the Company determines that a borrower’s financial condition has deteriorated, but still has the ability to repay at least some portion of the loan. A loan is considered to be a TDR when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, and the original terms have been modified in favor of the borrower such that either principal or interest has been forgiven, contractual payments are deferred, or the interest rate is reduced. A loan may also be considered a TDR when the loan of a financially troubled borrower is renewed with the same terms as were offered when the borrower was not troubled because it is normally expected that interest rates will be higher to cover the increased credit risk from a troubled borrower.

Additional information regarding loans classified nonaccrual, impaired, and TDRs is disclosed in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is expensed over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company depreciates assets utilizing a combination of accelerated methods of depreciation and straight line depreciation. The estimated useful lives of premises and equipment are as follows:

 

Buildings

     40 years   

Building improvements

     3 – 40 years   

Furniture and equipment

     5 – 7 years   

Electronic equipment and software

     3 – 10 years   

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Management annually reviews Premises and Equipment in order to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that the value of an asset is not recoverable.

Leases

The Company leases a majority of its branches and support offices. Most of these leases are operating leases for which a monthly rental expense is recognized. However, when the terms of the lease are such that the Company is leasing the building for most of its useful economic life or the present value of the sum of lease payments represents most of the fair value of the building, the transaction is accounted for as a capital lease. In a capital lease, the building is recognized as an asset of the Company and the net present value of the contracted lease payments is recognized as a long term liability. The long term liability recognized as part of a capital lease is accounted for using the interest method, and is included in other borrowings of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company’s capital leases were recorded at fair value in conjunction with the Investment Transaction, and within the one year measurement period as permitted by GAAP. The amortization charge relating to assets recorded under capital leases is included with depreciation expense.

Some of the Company’s leases have cost-of-living adjustments based on the consumer price index. Some of the leases have fixed increases provided for in the terms or increases based on the index but have a minimum increase irrespective of the change in index. In these cases, the total fixed or minimum lease expense is recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. As part of the purchase accounting due to the Investment Transaction, the Company evaluated all of its leases. A liability was recorded as of the Transaction Date because the contractual operating lease payments were above the current market rates for several leased properties in aggregate. The contractual obligations for operating and capital leases are disclosed in Note 9, “Premises and Equipment” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are generally acquired through an acquisition. If the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer’s intent to do so, the acquired intangible asset will be a separately recognized asset. Such intangible assets are subject to amortization over their useful lives unless they have an indefinite life. Among these identifiable intangible assets are core deposit intangibles, customer relationship intangible (“CRI”), and trade name intangible. The Company amortizes core deposit intangibles and core relationship intangibles over their estimated useful lives.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the assets received and liabilities assumed is an unidentifiable intangible asset and is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill must be reviewed for impairment whenever there is evidence to suggest that the reason an acquirer paid more than the estimated value of the net assets no longer is present but not less frequently than once per year. This evidence may be in the form of a triggering event or a series of events or developments.

Testing goodwill for impairment consists of a two part test to determine the fair value of goodwill. In Step 1, the fair value of the reporting unit is determined and compared to its carrying value including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is more than its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the company must proceed with Step 2. In Step 2, the implied fair value of goodwill is estimated. The implied fair value of goodwill is the excess of fair value of the reporting unit over the fair values of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit as they would be determined in an acquisition. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is more than its implied fair value, it is impaired and an impairment charge must be recognized.

All of the goodwill recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2011, is the result of the purchase accounting for the Investment Transaction. Additional information regarding goodwill and the computation of goodwill is disclosed in Note 2, “Business Combination—Investment Transaction” and Note 10, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

Bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) involves the purchase of life insurance by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and is a joint or sole beneficiary of the policies. This life insurance investment is carried as an asset at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. In cases where the Company is a joint beneficiary of the policies, the Company has recorded a liability for the portion of the cash surrender value owned by the other party. Income from the increase in cash surrender value of the policies is reflected in noninterest income. The cash surrender value approximates fair value.

Other Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired through foreclosure on a loan or by the surrender of real estate in lieu of foreclosure is called Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”). OREO is recorded in the Company’s financial records at the lower of its carrying value or fair value of the OREO, less estimated costs to sell. If the outstanding balance of the loan is greater than the fair value of the OREO at the time of foreclosure, the excess of the loan balance over the fair value is charged-off against the ALLL before recording the asset as an OREO. OREOs are recorded as other assets within these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Once the collateral is foreclosed on and the property becomes an OREO, Management periodically obtains appraisals to determine if further valuation adjustments are required. Valuation adjustments are also required when the listing price to sell an OREO has had to be reduced below the current carrying value. If there is a decrease in the fair value of the property from the last valuation, the decrease in value is charged against noninterest income. During the time the property is held, all related operating and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Increases in the values of properties are not recognized until sale. All income produced from OREOs, such as from renting the property, is included in noninterest income.

Mortgage and Other Loan Servicing Rights

Included in other assets are mortgage and other loan servicing rights associated with the sale of loans for which the servicing of the loan is retained. The Company receives a fee for servicing these loans. The right to receive this fee for performing servicing is of value to the Company and could be sold should the Company choose to do so. Companies engaged in selling loans and retaining servicing rights for a fee are required to recognize servicing rights as an asset or liability. The rights are recorded at the net present value of the fees that will be collected, less estimated servicing costs, which approximates the fair value. Loan servicing rights are amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated future net servicing income. Estimates of the lives of the loans are based on several industry standard sources and take into consideration prepayment rates expected in the current market interest rate environment.

Each quarter Management evaluates servicing rights for impairment. Impairment occurs when the fair value of loan servicing rights is less than amortized cost. The rates at which consumers prepay their loans are impacted by changes in interest rates—prepayments generally increase as interest rates fall, and generally decrease as interest rates rise so the value of the servicing right changes with changes in interest rates. When prepayments increase, the Company will collect less servicing fees, and the value of the servicing rights declines. A valuation of the servicing assets is performed at each reporting period and reductions to the servicing assets’ carrying value are made when the carrying balance is higher than the fair value of the servicing asset utilizing the lower of cost or fair value valuation methodology.

Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase

The Company enters into repurchase agreements whereby it sells securities or loans to another institution and agrees to repurchase them at a later date for an amount in excess of the sale price. While in form these are agreements to sell and repurchase, in substance they are secured borrowings in which the excess of the repurchase price over the sale price represents interest expense. This expense is accrued over the term of the borrowing. For security or collateral, the Company must pledge assets with a higher fair value than the amount borrowed. Information about the amounts held and the interest rates may be found in Note 16, “Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase and Federal Funds Purchased” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements. There was a purchase accounting premium recorded as a result of the Investment Transaction for these repurchase agreements based on current market rates for similar instruments.

Other Borrowings

Management utilizes a variety of sources to raise borrowed funds at competitive rates, including FHLB borrowings and subordinated debt. FHLB borrowings typically carry rates approximating the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for the equivalent term because they are secured with investments or high quality loans. Interest is accrued on a monthly basis based on the outstanding borrowings interest rate and is included in interest expense.

In past quarters, a majority of the long term and short term debt of the Company were advances with the FHLB. Long term funding through the FHLB is collateralized by pledging qualifying loans and/or securities. Virtually all of the FHLB advances were repaid by the Company in early September 2010 from the proceeds received in the Investment Transaction and deposits maintained at the Reserve Bank. Purchase accounting adjustments were made based on current market rates for similar instruments. Refer to Note 10, “Other Borrowings” of these Consolidated Financial Statements for the current period activity within long term debt and other borrowings.

Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The Company has exposure to losses from unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. Since the funds have not been disbursed on these commitments, they are not reported as loans outstanding. Estimated losses related to these commitments are not included in the ALLL reported in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of these Consolidated Financial Statements. Instead, they are accounted for as a separate loss contingency or reserve as a liability within other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets also referred to as a “Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Commitments”. Losses are experienced when the Company is contractually obligated to make a payment under these instruments and must seek repayment from a party that may not be as financially sound in the current period as it was when the commitment was originally made.

As with its outstanding loans, the Company applies the same historical loss rates and qualitative factors to its off-balance sheet obligations in determining an estimate of losses inherent in these contractual obligations. The estimate for loan losses on off-balance sheet instruments is included within other liabilities and the charge to income that establishes this liability is reported within other noninterest expense.

The estimate for loan losses on off-balance sheet instruments is included as a contingent liability under the provisions of ASC 450, Loss Contingencies. It is included within other liabilities and the charges to income that establish this liability are reported within other noninterest expense. Additional disclosure regarding the Company’s reserve for off-balance sheet commitments is located in Note 4, “Loans” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Derivative Financial Instruments

GAAP requires that all derivatives be recorded at their fair value on the balance sheet. Certain derivative transactions that meet specified criteria qualify for hedge accounting under GAAP. The Company does not hold any derivatives that meet the criteria for hedge accounting and, gains or losses associated with changes in fair value are immediately recognized in noninterest income.

Trust Assets and Investment and Advisory Fees

The Company has a trust department and two registered investment advisory subsidiaries, MCM and REWA, each of which have fiduciary responsibility for the assets that they manage on behalf of customers. These assets are not owned by the Company and are not reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fees for most trust services are based on the market value of customer assets, and the fees are accrued monthly. All of the activity for the trust department and investment and advisory services are reported in the wealth management segment.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company grants nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, and performance stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to directors and employees as a form of compensation. All stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with GAAP which requires compensation expense for the issuance of stock-based compensation be recognized over the vesting period of the share-based award or when it is probable that the performance stock grants performance measures will be met.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

 

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

The amount of compensation expense to be recognized for options is based on the fair value of the options, utilizing the Black-Scholes-Merton technique, at the date of the grant. The fair value for the options is estimated based on the length of their term, the volatility of the stock price in past periods, and other factors. Details regarding the accounting for stock-based compensation expense are disclosed in Note 21, “Shareholders’ Equity” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

A valuation model is not used for pricing restricted stock because the value is based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The total value of the restricted stock is the number of shares granted multiplied by the stock price.

The amount of compensation expense to be recognized for performance stock grants is based on the probability of meeting specific performance goals. These estimates are reassessed at each reporting period, and if the probability has changed, the amount of expense is adjusted based on the most recent assessment of probability. For restricted stock, the employee receives any dividends paid on the stock from the time of the grant, but receives the restricted stock only when the vesting period has elapsed. For RSUs, since the shares are not issued and outstanding until vesting, the employee does not receive dividends on the stock until vested, at which time the shares are issued.

Discontinued Operations – RAL and RT Programs

The RAL (“Refund Anticipation Loan”) and RT (“Refund Transfer”) programs were sold in January 2010, requiring that the assets and liabilities of these programs be reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Assets from discontinued operations” and as “Liabilities from discontinued operations,” and that the results of operations from these programs be reported in a single line net of tax in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Expense from discontinued operations, net.” An abbreviated statement of operations for the programs is provided in Note 26, “Discontinued Operations—RAL and RT Programs” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Because the sale of the programs occurred before the start of the 2010 tax season, there were only staff and operating expenses in 2010.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method, which recognizes a liability or asset representing the tax effects of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized in these Consolidated Financial Statements. Due to tax regulations, several items of income and expense are recognized in different periods for tax return purposes than for financial reporting purposes. These items represent “temporary differences.” The Company is required to provide in its Consolidated Financial Statements for the eventual liability or deduction in its tax return for these temporary differences until the item of income or expense has been recognized for both financial reporting and for taxes. The provision is recorded in the form of deferred tax expense or benefit as the temporary differences arise, with the accumulated amount recognized as a deferred tax liability or asset. Deferred tax assets represent future deductions in the Company’s income tax return, while deferred tax liabilities represent future payments to tax authorities. When realization of the benefit of a deferred tax asset is uncertain, the Company is required to recognize a valuation allowance so as not to overstate the realizability. The valuation allowance recorded by the Company in 2009 and maintained through the current period due to a lack of assurance of future taxable income against which to apply the benefit is discussed in Note 9, “Deferred Tax Assets and Tax Provision” of these Consolidated Financial Statements and in Note 13, “Deferred Tax Assets and Tax Provision” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES– CONTINUED

 

In August 2011, in connection with the Investment Transaction, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $5.2 million related to an indefinite life trade name intangible. This deferred tax liability will remain on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as long as the Bank exists.

Earnings Per Share

The computation of basic earnings per share for all periods presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each year retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effective December 28, 2010.

Diluted earnings per share include the effect of common stock equivalents for the Company, which consist of shares issuable on the exercise of outstanding options and restricted stock awards and common stock warrants.

The number of options assumed to be exercised is computed using the “treasury stock method.” This method assumes that all options with an exercise price lower than the average stock price for the period have been exercised at the average market price for the period and that the proceeds from the assumed exercise have been used for market repurchases of shares at the average market price. Normally, the Company would receive a tax benefit for the difference between the market price and the exercise price of nonqualified options when options are exercised. The treasury stock method also assumes that the tax benefit from the assumed exercise of options is used to retire shares thereby lowering the number of shares assumed to be exercised. Options that have an exercise price higher than the average market price are excluded from the computation because they are anti-dilutive. When the Company’s net income available to common shareholders is in a loss position, the diluted earnings per share calculation utilizes only the average shares outstanding, because assuming the exercise of stock options or warrants would lower the loss per share.

Once stock options are exercised, restricted stock vests, or once a performance measurement has been met, the shares are included in the actual weighted average shares outstanding rather than as common stock equivalents.

Statement of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, “cash and cash equivalents” includes cash and due from banks, Federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell are one-day transactions, with the Company’s funds being returned to it the next business day.

Segments

GAAP requires that the Company disclose certain information related to the performance of various segments of its business. Segments are defined based on how the chief operating decision maker of the Company views the Company’s operations. Management has determined that the Company has two reportable operating segments: (1) Commercial & Community Banking and (2) Wealth Management. The All Other segment is not considered an operating segment, but includes all corporate administrative support departments such as human resources, legal, finance and accounting, treasury, information technology, internal audit, risk management, facilities management, marketing, and the holding company. In the first quarter of 2010, the RAL and RT Programs were sold and were reported as discontinued operations. Up until the sale of the RAL and RT Programs, they were a separate operating segment but, due to the sale, this segment was removed from this disclosure. The factors used in determining these reportable segments are explained in Note 27, “Segments” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 2. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

Level 1:

  

Observable quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2:

  

Observable quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3:

  

Model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which an asset (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The assets and liabilities which are fair valued on a recurring basis are described below and contained in the following tables. In addition, the Company may be required to record other assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments involve the lower of carrying value or fair value accounting and write downs resulting from impairment of assets. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments that are recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis.

Investment Securities

Investment securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical assets, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company’s securities are quoted using observable market information for similar assets which requires the Company to report and use Level 2 pricing for them. When observable market information is not available for securities or there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs, such securities would be classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company does not have any securities within the Level 1 or Level 3 hierarchy.

Derivatives

The Company’s swap derivatives are not listed on an exchange and are instead executed over the counter (“OTC”). Because there are no quoted market prices for such instruments, the Company values these OTC derivatives primarily based on the broker pricing indications, which involve proprietary models based upon financial principles and assumptions regarding past, present, and future market conditions. As a result, the swap values are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

As discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of these Consolidated Financial Statements, prior to the funding of a mortgage loan, the Company may provide an interest rate lock commitment and mandatory delivery contracts for mortgage loans originated for sale that qualify as derivatives under GAAP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

 

NOTE 2. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – CONTINUED

 

The value of the interest rate lock commitments is based on the change in interest rates between the date the interest rate lock commitment is executed and the date the loan is funded. The interest rates used to fair value these derivatives are of similar assets in observable markets. The value of the mandatory delivery contract is calculated by comparing the price on the contract accepted date to the price on the actual sale date on similar assets that are currently being sold. As a result, these derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Foreclosed Collateral

Foreclosed collateral is carried at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Fair value is determined by the lower of suggested market prices obtained from independent certified appraisers, the current listing price, or the net present value of expected cash flows of the asset received. When the fair value of the collateral is based on a current appraised value or the appraised value, the asset is classified as nonrecurring Level 2. When a net present value technique using the cash flows of the asset received is used, the asset is classified as nonrecurring Level 3.

Mortgage and Other Loan Servicing Rights

Servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. Servicing rights are subject to quarterly impairment testing. When the fair value of the servicing rights is lower than their carrying value, an impairment is recorded by establishing or increasing the amount of a valuation allowance so that the net carrying amount is equal to the fair value. The Company uses independent third parties to value the servicing rights. The valuation model takes into consideration discounted cash flows using current interest rates and prepayment speeds for each type of the underlying asset being serviced. The Company only uses discounted cash flows to obtain the fair value for servicing rights and therefore are all classified as nonrecurring Level 3.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company is required to periodically measure certain financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The financial assets identified in the table below are fair value measurements that resulted from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting which were written-down to the fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The amounts disclosed in the table below represent the fair value as of the date of the most recent fair value adjustment. A summary of the assets that had nonrecurring fair value measurements to the carrying value during the period are summarized in the table below.

There were no nonrecurring fair value measurements recorded for the Successor Company for the one month period ended September 30, 2010. There were also no nonrecurring fair value measurements in the Predecessor Company as all assets and liabilities were fair valued at the Transaction Date as disclosed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements and in the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. There were no transfers in or out of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets during the periods presented within this note of these Consolidated Financial Statements by reason of a change in the methodology for establishing the fair value.

A summary of the valuation methodology used to disclose the fair value of the financial instruments in the table above is as follows:

Cash and Due from Banks and Interest Bearing Demand Deposits in Other Financial Institutions

The carrying values of cash and interest bearing demand deposits in other financial institutions are the fair value.

Loans Held for Investment, net

The carrying value of the loans held for investment at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, was significantly impacted by the write down to fair value at the Transaction Date due to the application of purchase accounting related to the Investment Transaction. At the Transaction Date, the loans purchased were reported at fair value based on the contractual cash flows expected to be collected. The fair value presented above is calculated based on the present value of expected principal and interest cash flows. The carrying value of the loans originated and purchased subsequent to the Investment Transaction is net of the ALLL and the purchase accounting adjustments which represents Management’s evaluation of expected credit losses inherent in those loan portfolios. These methods are based on the entrance price concept versus the exit price concept described in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements.

The methods used to estimate the fair value of loans are sensitive to the assumptions and estimates used. While Management has attempted to use assumptions and estimates that best reflect the Company’s loan portfolio and current market conditions, a greater degree of subjectivity is inherent in these values than in those determined in active markets. Accordingly, readers are cautioned in using this information for purposes of evaluating the financial condition and/or value of the Company in and of itself or in comparison with any other company.

NOTE 2. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – CONTINUED

 

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, money market accounts, and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the interest and principal payments using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Other Borrowings

The fair value of subordinated debt and trust preferred securities is estimated by discounting the interest and principal payments using current market rates for comparable securities. For treasury tax and loan (“TT&L”) obligations, the carrying amount is the fair value.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase

The fair value of repurchase agreements is determined by reference to rates in the wholesale repurchase market. The rates paid to the Company’s customers are slightly lower than rates in the wholesale market and, consequently, the fair value will generally be less than the carrying amount. The fair value of the long term repurchase agreements is determined in the same manner as the other borrowings, above.

Disclosed Fair Value of Financial Instruments is not Equivalent to Franchise Value

The financial instruments disclosed in this note include such items as securities, loans, deposits, debt, and other instruments. Disclosure of fair values is not required for certain assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments such as obligations for pension and other postretirement benefits, premises and equipment, prepaid expenses, and income tax assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value of amounts presented in this note does not purport to represent, and should not be considered representative of, the underlying “market” or franchise value of the Company. Further, due to a variety of alternative valuation techniques and approaches permitted by the fair value measurement accounting standards as well as the significant assumptions that are required to be made in the process of valuation, the determinations or estimations of fair value for many of the financial instruments disclosed in this note could and do differ between various market participants. A direct comparison of the Company’s fair value information with that of other financial institutions may not be appropriate.

As of September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, 239 and 526 AFS securities were in an unrealized loss position. The $5.7 million and $33.7 million of unrealized losses for the AFS portfolio as of September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively, are a result of changes in market interest rates. The fair value is based on current market prices obtained from independent sources for each security held. If a security is in an unrealized loss position, Management is required to determine whether or not the security is temporarily or permanently impaired. The issuers of these securities have not to the Company’s knowledge, established any cause for default on these securities and the most recent ratings on all securities have an investment grade rating, except for one security. At September 30, 2011, Management does not intend to sell any of the securities in a loss position nor are there any conditions present at September 30, 2011, that would require Management to sell them. As such, Management does not believe that there are any securities that are other-than-temporarily impaired as of September 30, 2011.

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers or issuers have the right to call or prepay investment securities. Changes in interest rates may also impact borrowers or issuers of investment securities and cause them to prepay investment securities earlier than the contractual term.

Successor Company

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company purchased $19.1 million of residential 1 to 4 family and multifamily loans. Additionally, the Company purchased $26.0 million of residential 1 to 4 family loans during June 2011. These loans were purchased at a premium which will be amortized into interest income over the remaining lives of the loans using the level yield method. The loans purchased are performing and are not considered credit impaired.

In March 2011, the Company purchased $188.4 million of multifamily and commercial real estate loans. The loans were purchased at a discount which will be accreted into interest income over the life of the loans using a level yield method. The purchased loans are not credit impaired based on the due diligence performed prior to the purchase. When reviewing and selecting these loans for purchase, the Company required that the loans have no delinquencies during the prior 36 months, i.e. all contractual payments had been made on time. In addition, a majority of the loans purchased were seasoned loans which had been originated prior to 2005, and the collateral securing the loans purchased were considered to be of lower risk, based on the Company’s prior experience with these types of credits. Finally, all these loans were assigned an internal risk rating of “Pass.”

There were no loan purchases during the one month ended September 30, 2010.

Predecessor Company

There were no loan purchases during the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010.

NOTE 4. LOANS - CONTINUED

 

Due to the new accounting standard adopted for the transfer of financial assets on January 1, 2010, the sale of these loans were not recognized until 90 days after the date of transfer. Prior to recognizing the sale of these loans, the Company reported them as loans held for sale with an offsetting liability reported as a secured borrowing. The majority of the gains on the sale of the SBA loans were not recognized until 90 days after the date of the transfer. SBA loans have a government-guaranteed portion, and it is this portion that the Company sells into the secondary market, on a servicing retained basis. If the transfer of the guaranteed portion of an SBA loan results in a premium, the “seller” is obligated by the SBA to refund the premium to the “purchaser” if the loan is repaid within 90 days of the transfer. Due to these conditions, the Company was precluded from recognizing gains on the sale of SBA loans until 90 days after the date of transfer, when the conditions concerning the possible refund of any premium paid by the “purchaser” were removed.

Pledged Loans

At September 30, 2011, loans with principal balances totaling $38.9 million were pledged to FHLB as collateral for the Bank’s letters of credit. These amounts pledged do not represent the amount of outstanding borrowings that are required to be supported by collateral. The Bank maintains an excess of collateral at these institutions so that it may borrow without having to first transfer collateral to them.

Unfunded Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit

As of September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, the contractual commitments are as follows:

Included in unfunded loan commitments are secured and unsecured lines and letters of credit and loans and approved application for loans which have not been funded. These commitments meet the financing needs of the Company’s customers in the normal course of business and are commitments with “off-balance sheet” risk since the Company has committed to issuing funds to or on behalf of customers, but there is no current loan outstanding.

NOTE 4. LOANS - CONTINUED

 

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party in borrowing arrangements. At September 30, 2011, the maximum undiscounted future payments that the Company could be required to make were $66.8 million. Approximately 52.7% of these arrangements mature within one year. The Company generally has recourse to recover from the customer any amounts paid under these guarantees. Most of the guarantees are fully collateralized by the same types of assets used as loan collateral, however several are unsecured.

The reserve for the unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit was $19.1 million and $19.0 million at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively. The reserve for off-balance sheet commitments is attributable to the estimated credit losses inherent in the Company’s unfunded loan commitments. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the accounting for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit.

 

NOTE 5. PURCHASED CREDIT IMPAIRED POOLS

As discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has classified all of the loans acquired on the Transaction Date as purchased credit impaired loans and pooled the purchased loans into pools of loans which have similar risk characteristics. Purchased credit impaired loans which have revolving lines of credit are referred to as PCI Revolving Pools while the remainder of the loans purchased are referred to as PCI Term Pools.

NOTE 6. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES – CONTINUED

 

As disclosed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Investment Transaction significantly impacted the Company’s ALLL. As a result of the Investment Transaction and the application of the accounting guidance for business combinations, the ALLL for the loans purchased was eliminated, and the PCI Loan Pools were recorded at their fair value at the Transaction Date. Consequently, no ALLL was provided for PCI Loan Pools at the Transaction Date and as of September 30, 2011.

Management anticipates that the actual cash flows for each individual loan within the PCI Loan Pools will differ each quarter from the estimate calculated at the Transaction Date. Management expects that cash flows from some of the loans within the pools may exceed previous expectations, while some may be less than that previously expected. However, from the Transaction Date forward, the pooled loans are accounted for as if they are single assets, and only if the cash flows for the entire pool are less than what was previously expected, is an allowance established for the pool through a provision for loan losses. Periodically, the Company is required to analyze each loan pool’s actual cash flows and compare them to that which was previously expected. As of September 30, 2011, cash flows from PCI Loan Pools were within Management’s previous expectations.

The following table disaggregates the ALLL by impairment methodology and provides the Company’s recorded investment in the related loans at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010.

Nonperforming Loans

Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days which are accruing interest, and TDRs. The reporting for nonperforming loans was significantly impacted by the Investment Transaction as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 5, “Purchased Credit Impaired Pools” of these Consolidated Financial Statements, because all loans were written down to their fair value at the Transaction Date, and the majority of the Company’s loans as of the Transaction Date are accounted for as purchased credit impaired loans under ASC 310-30. The value of the Company’s OREO assets was also impacted by the Investment Transaction, having been written down to fair value as of the Transaction Date. For more information related to OREO, refer to Note 8, “OREO” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company closely monitors and assesses credit quality and credit risk in the loan portfolio on an ongoing basis. Loan credit risk ratings and classifications of loans are reviewed and updated periodically. Large classified loans credit risk ratings are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis as disclosed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements. At September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, all of the PCI Term and Revolving Pools were considered to be nonclassified and are not included in the tables above. PCI Loan Pools are categorized based on the overall performance on a pool by pool basis. The underlying individual loans, within each pool, may be categorized based on individual loan performance.

Aging of Past Due Loans

A majority of the loans held by the Company at September 30, 2011, have been pooled into PCI Term Pools and are not considered to be nonaccrual when reporting on a pooled basis in accordance with ASC 310-30. The following tables provide the aging of past due loans on an individual loan basis at the net carrying amount at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010. The difference between the unpaid principal balance and the carrying amount was allocated on a weighted average basis.

NOTE 6. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES – CONTINUED

 

Impaired Loans

Successor Company

Loans that had been identified as impaired loans prior to the Investment Transaction are no longer considered impaired because the impairment has already been recognized when the loans were fair valued based on their expected cash flows on the Transaction Date. There were no impaired loans at either September 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010. There was no average investment in impaired loans for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011.

Predecessor Company

The average investment in impaired loans for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010 was $454.3 million and $375.1 million, respectively. Interest recognized and interest income recognized using a cash basis of accounting was not material during the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

As discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the aggregation of loans into pools at the Transaction Date with the application of ASC 310-30 causes TDRs in the PCI Term Pools to no longer be recognized as TDRs.

Successor Company

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, commercial loans of $139,000 and consumer loans of $345,000 and $676,000 of residential – 1 to 4 family loans were modified as TDRs. There were no defaulted payments on TDRs that were modified during 2011. At September 30, 2011, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose terms have been modified as TDRs.

Goodwill

Goodwill was preliminarily recorded as a result of the Investment Transaction as disclosed in Note 2, “Business Combination – Investment Transaction” of the 2010 Form 10-K’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill has been allocated by reporting segment and at September 30, 2011, the Commercial & Community Banking segment had $21.6 million of goodwill and the Wealth Management segment had $4.9 million of goodwill. The Company completed the annual goodwill impairment testing during the third quarter of 2011 and no impairment was recognized. The following adjustments have been made to goodwill since December 31, 2010:

 

 (dollars in thousands)

The deferred tax liability adjustment of $5.2 million relates to an indefinite life deferred tax liability for the indefinite life trade name intangible for SBB&T. The capital lease liability adjustment relates to an updated fair value for the Company’s capital leases as of the Transaction Date of $4.3 million. The loan valuation adjustment of $2.4 million relates to updates to the fair value of the PCI loans as of the Transaction Date. The earnout liability adjustment of $2.1 million is from an increase in the fair value of the Earnout Agreements based on updated information received after the Transaction Date. The transaction costs adjustment to goodwill of $577,000 is from the accrued purchaser’s transaction costs which were not realized and therefore were reversed.

Intangible Assets

The Company has five types of identifiable intangible assets: core deposit intangibles, customer relationship intangibles, trade name intangibles, non-compete intangibles, and mortgage and other loan servicing rights. All intangible assets are amortized over their estimated lives with exception of the SBB&T trade name intangible which has an indefinite life. The core deposit, the customer relationship, the trade name, and the non-compete intangibles are created when a company acquires another company. The loan servicing rights are created when loans are sold but the right to service the loans is retained by the seller. Additional information regarding the Company’s intangible assets is disclosed in Note 10, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” and Note 12, “Mortgage and Other Loan Servicing Rights” of the 2010 Form 10-K.

NOTE 9. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND TAX PROVISION

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences related to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, for tax credits carryforwards, and for other tax attributes. The net deferred tax asset, net of valuation allowance, was $1.8 million at September 30, 2011, and was zero at December 31, 2010. The Company has also recorded a deferred tax liability of $5.2 million at September 30, 2011, related to the indefinite lived trade name intangible. Management evaluates the Company’s deferred tax assets for recoverability using a consistent approach which considers the relative impact of negative and positive evidence, including the Company’s historical profitability and projections of future taxable income. The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and record a charge to income if Management determines, based on available evidence at the time the determination is made, that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

During the first nine months of 2011, the Company was able to release a portion of the state deferred tax valuation allowance due to a change in judgment about the realizability of the deferred tax asset based on existing California State law. There was also an adjustment to the federal deferred tax asset and valuation allowance as the Company was able to utilize a portion of its federal net operating loss (“NOL”) and tax credit carryforwards to offset its current estimated federal taxable income.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had generated three years of cumulative pretax losses. For purposes of establishing a deferred tax valuation allowance, this cumulative pretax loss position is considered significant, objective evidence that the Company may not be able to realize some portion of the deferred tax assets in the future. The Company’s cumulative pretax loss position was caused by the large amount of loan losses resulting from the weak housing and credit market conditions. As a consequence, as described above, the Company has maintained a valuation allowance sufficient to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets to that amount more likely than not to be realized.

NOTE 9. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND TAX PROVISION – CONTINUED

 

Estimates of the annual effective tax rate at the end of interim periods to be utilized in determining the provision for income tax expense, are, of necessity, based on evaluations of possible future events and transactions and may be subject to subsequent refinement or revision. Since the Company believes a reliable estimate of the annual effective tax rate cannot be made, the actual effective tax rate for the year to date has been used as the best estimate of the annual effective tax rate.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a $309,000 income tax benefit was recognized. The tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is primarily attributable to a current state alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) offset by a favorable settlement of the California examination of the Company’s 2002-2006 claim for refund. Although its AMT liability generated an AMT credit carryforward, the Company did not recognize a net benefit for this AMT credit carryforward, since it has a valuation allowance fully offsetting its deferred tax assets.

Federal and state tax laws impose limitations on the realization of tax benefits when a company undergoes an ownership change. Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 382 subjects the amount of pre-change tax benefits (such as net operating losses, tax credit carryforwards, and built-in losses) that a company can realize to an annual limitation. As a result of the Investment Transaction, the Company experienced an ownership change as defined in IRC Section 382. The ownership change will limit the Company’s ability to realize the tax benefits of its net operating losses, tax credit carryforwards, and built-in losses that existed at the time of the ownership change.

The Company adopted the accounting guidance for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes on January 1, 2007. This guidance provides the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions and for the recognition and measurement related to the accounting for income taxes. At September 30, 2011, and at December 31, 2010, Management concluded that there were no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, the Company did not recognize any adjustment in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits that impacted the beginning retained earnings.

Contractual Commitments for Unfunded Loans and Letter of Credits

For a summary and information regarding the contractual commitments for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit as of September 30, 2011, refer to Note 4, “Loans” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Legal Matters

On October 29, 2009, a shareholder derivative suit was filed by James Clem on behalf of Pacific Capital Bancorp against former Chief Executive Officer George Leis, former Chief Financial Officer Stephen Masterson, former Chief Credit Officer David Porter, all members of the Board of Directors of the Company, and Sandler O’Neill Partners L.P., and against the Company as a nominal defendant. The lawsuit is entitled James Clem v. George S. Leis, et al. The complaint was filed in the Superior Court in Santa Barbara, Case No. CIVRS1340306, and alleged breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment by the defendants. The complaint alleged that the Company and the officer defendants made knowingly false statements of confidence regarding the adequacy of loan loss reserves taken in the first quarter of 2009, which plaintiff Clem contended were proven false when the Company announced second quarter results, which included an additional $117 million reserve.

On November 30, 2009, Marianne Monty filed a similar shareholder derivative suit against the same defendants except Mr. Porter, who was not included. The lawsuit is entitled Marianne Monty v. George S. Leis, et al. This complaint was also filed in the Superior Court in Santa Barbara, Case No. CIVRS1340825. On January 5, 2010, the Court entered an order consolidating this case and the Clem case. The Court subsequently appointed Ms. Monty as lead plaintiff of the consolidated case. Ms. Monty filed a consolidated complaint, expanding her allegations of wrongdoing to include direct claims based on the Company’s approval of a proposed Investment Transaction with the Investor. Ms. Monty filed a motion for preliminary injunction, seeking to enjoin the closing of the Investment Transaction until a shareholder vote could be held. The Court denied the motion, and Ms. Monty appealed from that denial. The Investment Transaction closed on August 31, 2010. The Court of Appeal heard oral argument on Ms. Monty’s appeal on February 9, 2011, and issued its decision on March 30, 2011, affirming the trial court’s denial of the preliminary injunction. Ms. Monty filed a petition for rehearing with the Court of Appeal, and the Company filed an opposition to that petition. The Court of Appeal denied the petition for rehearing, and the plaintiff then filed a petition for review with the California Supreme Court. By order dated June 15, 2011, the California Supreme Court denied the petition for review. The Company’s demurrer to the consolidated complaint was overruled at the trial court, and the defendants filed answers to the consolidated complaint. Management believes the likely outcome of this lawsuit would not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is involved in various lawsuits of a routine nature that are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Expenses are being incurred in connection with defending the Company, but in the opinion of Management, based in part on consultation with legal counsel, the resolution of these lawsuits will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTE 15. SEGMENTS

The segments are aligned based on how the Company’s Board of Directors has set performance goals for the CEO and his management team. The Company has two operating business segments: Commercial & Community Banking and Wealth Management. The All Other segment is not considered an operating segment, but includes all corporate administrative support departments such as human resources, legal, finance and accounting, treasury, information technology, internal audit, risk management, facilities management, marketing, executive management and the holding company. The operations and expenses reported in the All Other segment cannot specifically be allocated to the operating segments based on the services provided. The administrative departments which specifically support the operating segments have been identified and reported within the operating segment.

A summary of the operating segments products and services and customers are below:

Commercial & Community Banking

The Commercial & Community Banking reportable segment is the aggregation of customer sales and service activities typically found in a bank. This reportable segment includes all lending and deposit products of the Bank. Customers include small business and middle market companies as well as individuals in the communities which the Bank serves.

Included in the Commercial & Community Banking segment are the associated administrative departments to support their products and activities such as loan servicing, credit administration, special assets department, research, wire room, delinquency management unit, central vault operations, retail and commercial lending administration departments.

Wealth Management

The Wealth Management reportable segment includes the trust and investment advisory services division and the two registered investment advisors, MCM and REWA which are subsidiaries of the Bank. The Wealth Management segment provides investment reviews, analysis and customized portfolio management for separately managed accounts, full service brokerage, trust and fiduciary services, equity and fixed income management and real estate and specialty asset management.

All Other

This reportable segment consists of administrative support areas of the Company and is not considered an operating segment of the Company. The income generated by the All Other segment is from SBB&T’s investment securities portfolio which is managed by the treasury department.

Indirect Credit/(Charge) for Funds

Included in “Indirect credit/(charge) for funds” is an allocation of net interest income between segments with the All Other segment being used for the funding center. The indirect credit/(charge) for funds is calculated by analyzing average earning assets and average interest bearing liabilities plus average noninterest bearing deposits. If a segment’s average earning assets are greater, the net average assets are multiplied by the net cost of funds to calculate the indirect charge for funds as the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund the assets of the segment. If a segment has more interest bearing liabilities than assets, then the net average interest bearing liabilities are multiplied by the net cost of funds and the segment receives an indirect credit for funds.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED

 

NOTE 16. REGULATORY MATTERS - CONTINUED

 

On May 11, 2010, the Company entered into the Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank. The Written Agreement restricts the payment of dividends by the Company, as well as the taking of dividends or any other payment representing a reduction in capital from the Bank, without the prior approval of the Reserve Bank. The Written Agreement further requires that the Company and its nonbank subsidiaries not incur, increase, or guarantee any debt, repurchase or redeem any shares of its stock, or pay any interest or principal on subordinated debt or trust preferred securities, in each case without the prior approval of the Reserve Bank. The Written Agreement also requires the Company to develop a capital plan for the Company, which shall address, among other things, the Company’s current and future capital requirements, including compliance with the minimum capital ratios, the adequacy of the capital, the source and timing of additional funds, and procedures to notify the Reserve Bank no more than thirty days after the end of any quarter in which the Company’s consolidated capital ratios or the Bank’s capital ratios fall below the required minimums.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Pacific Capital Bancorp (“the Company”) provides a wide range of banking, investment and trust services to its clients through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, National Association (“the Bank” or “SBB&T”) and its subsidiaries. For over 50 years, the Bank has served clients through relationship banking. The Bank combines the breadth of financial products typically associated with a larger financial institution with the type of individual client service that is found in a community bank. The Bank provides full service banking, including all aspects of checking and savings, private and commercial lending, investment advisory services, trust, and other banking products and services. Products and services are offered through retail branch offices, commercial and wealth management centers and other distribution channels to consumers and businesses operating throughout the Central Coast of California, in eight contiguous counties including Santa Barbara, Ventura, Monterey, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, San Benito, San Luis Obispo and Los Angeles. The Company is headquartered in Santa Barbara, California.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2010 Form 10-K and the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q, herein referred to as “the Consolidated Financial Statements” included and incorporated by reference herein. “Bancorp” will be used in this discussion when referring only to the holding company as distinct from the consolidated “Company” and “the Bank” or “SBB&T” will be used when referring to Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, N.A.

As a result of the adjustments required by purchase accounting as of the close of business on August 31, 2010 (the “Transaction Date”), the Company’s balance sheets and results of operations from periods prior to the Transaction Date are labeled as “Predecessor Company” and are not comparable to balance sheets and results of operations from periods subsequent to the Transaction Date, which are labeled as “Successor Company.” The lack of comparability arises from the assets and liabilities having new accounting bases as a result of recording them at their fair values as of the Transaction Date rather than at their historical cost basis recorded in the predecessor period. As a result of the change in accounting bases, items of income and expense such as the rate of interest income and expense as well as depreciation, amortization, and rental expense have also changed. In general, these changes in income and expense relate to the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts to arrive at contractual amounts due. To call attention to this lack of comparability and as required by the accounting and reporting guidance, the Company has placed a heavy black line between the Successor Company and Predecessor Company columns in the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the tables in the notes to the statements and in this discussion. The Successor Company period started on September 1, 2010, and includes the Company’s financial information and activity on and after September 1, 2010. The Predecessor Company contains all of the Company’s financial information and activity up until the close of business on August 31, 2010.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Successor Company

Net income applicable to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $20.5 million, or $0.62 per diluted share and $58.2 million, or $1.77 per diluted share, respectively. The financial highlights for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, were as follows:

 

  ¡  

Delivered the fourth consecutive quarter of strong profitable results, bringing the total net income to $84.0 million, or $2.62 per a diluted share, following the successful recapitalization on August 31, 2010;

 

  ¡  

Improved net interest margins to 4.08% for the third quarter of 2011, and 4.17% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011;

 

73


Table of Contents
  ¡  

Grew regulatory capital ratios to 12.1% and 20.0% for Tier 1 Leverage and Total Risk-Based Capital ratios, respectively and;

 

  ¡  

Achieved a return on average assets of 1.39% and a return on average equity of 11.14% for the third quarter of 2011.

Predecessor Company

Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the two and eight months ended August 31 2010, was $27.9 million or $55.17 per diluted share and $171.8 million or $359.82 per diluted share, respectively. The net loss from continuing operations for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010, was $26.1 million or $51.63 per diluted share and $171.6 million or $359.38, respectively. The differences between the net loss applicable to common shareholders and the net loss from continuing operations is attributable to the operating results from the discontinued operations and the accrual of dividends on outstanding shares of preferred stock.

The financial highlights for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010, were as follows:

 

  ¡  

Maintained a large liquidity balance to mitigate liquidity risk due to uncertainty related to the Company’s performance;

 

  ¡  

Incurred costs associated with executing the Investment Transaction, including investment banker, attorney, and consultant fees;

 

  ¡  

Sold the RAL and RT Programs in January 2010, for a net gain of $8.2 million. As a result, the RAL and RT Programs were reported as discontinued operations; and

 

  ¡  

Increased provision expense recognized as a result of credit quality issues within the loan portfolio.

The impact to the Company from these items will be discussed in more detail throughout the analysis sections of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) section of this Form 10-Q.

Successor Company

Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $66.0 million, and $204.5 million, respectively. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2011, was impacted by lower accretion related to PCI Loan Pools compared to the previous two quarters, and by lower average loan balances. The Company also records recoveries on PCI Loans that were fully charged-off prior to the Transaction Date on a cost recovery basis as a component of interest income. Recoveries on fully charged-off PCI Loans totaled $2.9 million and $9.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.

Interest income from investment securities was $7.2 million and $20.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company purchased $423.9 million of investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, increasing the average balance.

Purchase accounting adjustments made at the Transaction Date have had a negative impact on the amount of interest income recognized on the investment securities portfolio. As a result of a low interest rate environment at the Transaction Date versus the original purchase date of securities in the investment portfolio, the Company was required by purchase accounting to record a premium on the investment securities portfolio, which has resulted in amortization, reducing interest income over the terms of the various securities.

 

75


Table of Contents

Predecessor Company

Interest income was $44.4 million, and $189.7 million for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010, respectively. Interest income was impacted by loan sales, nonaccrual loan activity, and charge-offs during these periods. The Company also restricted lending activity up until the Transaction Date to maintain the Company’s capital ratios, which resulted in a decline in loan balances as maturing loans, and normal portfolio attrition, were not matched by new originations. Interest income from trading and AFS securities decreased as a result of sales, calls and maturities of securities, as well as the impact of a declining rate environment on certain adjustable rate securities. Contributing further to the overall decline in interest income was due to the Company retaining additional cash to maintain liquidity.

INTEREST EXPENSE

The Company incurs interest expense from interest payments made to depositors and for other borrowings. Interest expense from deposits all pertain to the Commercial & Community Banking operating segment, while interest expense from borrowings or debt almost all pertain to the Company’s Treasury Department related activity and therefore are included in the All Other segment. Wealth Management incurs interest expense only for the capital lease on the building occupied by the Company’s Trust Department. For more information regarding leases, refer to the section titled “Leases” in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statements for an explanation of the accounting for a capital lease.

Each of the categories of interest expense was significantly impacted by the application of purchase accounting adjustments. At the Transaction Date, market interest rates had declined from what they were when a large proportion of the Company’s fixed rate time CDs and repurchase agreements were issued. The decline in interest rates caused the carrying value of these liabilities to decrease and premiums were recognized for these liabilities to report them at their fair value. These premiums are being amortized over the terms of the related liabilities, reducing interest expense.

The Investment Transaction provided excess liquidity which was used to reduce outstanding debt. The remaining borrowings from the FHLB were either prepaid in September 2011, or matured in the fourth quarter of 2010. At September 30, 2011, there are no borrowings outstanding with the FHLB. The Company also repurchased $68 million of its subordinated debt at the Transaction Date contributing further to the year over year decline in interest expense. The remaining subordinated debt and the Company’s trust preferred securities had a fair value less than their face values resulting in accretable discounts, which has increased interest expense since the Transaction Date. The securities sold under agreements to repurchase had a fair value in excess of their principal amount resulting in a premium; the amortization of which reduced interest expense to less than the amount paid to creditors.

Successor Company

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $10.2 million and $34.2 million, respectively. Interest expense declined during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 due to the maturity of broker deposits and the replacement of lower rate customer deposits. Contributing further to the decline in interest expense was the maturity of $18.0 million in subordinated debt during the third quarter of 2011. The one month period ended September 30, 2010, had increased interest expense primarily from broker deposits and higher average borrowings from long term debt.

Predecessor Company

Interest expense for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010, of $19.4 million and $80.3 million was impacted by higher rate and average balances for deposits which is mostly due to increased reliance on broker deposits to maintain liquidity and significantly higher average balances for long term debt.

NET INTEREST MARGIN

An important measure of a financial institution’s earning capacity is its net interest margin. This measure is computed by dividing the difference between interest income and interest expense, or net interest income, by average earning assets. As a financial intermediary, a bank earns money by borrowing from depositors and debt-holders and lending some of those funds to loan customers and by purchasing investments. By combining the average interest rate earned on assets with the average interest cost to hold those assets, the net interest margin measures both the institution’s ability to earn its desired rates on its assets and its efficiency in obtaining the funding that supports those assets. The net interest margin differs from the net interest spread which is the difference between the average rate earned and the average rate paid, because a portion of the earning assets are funded by noninterest bearing liabilities.

 

77


Table of Contents

The net interest margin is improved by higher rates earned on assets, lower rates paid on liabilities, funding a larger proportion of earning assets with noninterest bearing liabilities, and by lowering the amount of nonearning assets that must be funded. Interest rates earned on assets and paid on liabilities tend to move in tandem with each other as the market interest rate environment changes, but it is generally harder to improve the net interest margin in a low interest rate environment because there is a rate beyond which deposit rates cannot be lowered and still retain customers while asset yields may continue to fall. Conversely, as market interest rates rise, deposit rates will generally not rise as fast or as much and the net interest margin may thereby improve.

The following tables set forth the average balances and interest income and interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the one month ended September 30, 2010, and the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

Quarterly, the Company determines the amount of ALLL that is adequate to provide for losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolios. The provision for loan losses is determined by the net change in the ALLL from one period to another for loans originated and purchased after the Transaction Date. For PCI Loan Pools, the provision for loan losses is impacted when Management’s estimates of future cash flows are lower than what had previously been expected (i.e. there were less cash flows in a pool and higher net charge-offs within a pool than what had been previously expected causing the need for additional provision for loan losses). For a detailed discussion of the Company’s ALLL, refer to the “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” section of this Form 10-Q within Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” and, the Note 8, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” section of the Company’s 2010 Form 10-K. All of the activity within the provision for loan losses relates to the Commercial & Community Banking operating segment.

Successor Company

Provision for loan losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $787,000 and $4.3 million, respectively. The majority of the provision for loan losses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, pertains to the Company’s estimate of losses inherent in loans originated and purchased after the Transaction Date. For information regarding the ALLL methodology, refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result of the Investment Transaction and the application of the accounting guidance for business combinations, the ALLL for the credit impaired loans that were purchased was eliminated and the purchased credit impaired loans were recorded at their fair value at the Transaction Date as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company periodically re-forecasts expected cash flows on PCI Term Pools, and compares those revised estimates to that which was previously expected. To the extent that the Company’s revised estimate for cash flows is lower than previously expected, the Company will establish an allowance for PCI Term Pools through a provision for loan losses. If the Company’s revised estimate for cash flows is significantly higher than that which was previously expected, the Company will reverse any allowance previously established for PCI Term Pools with any remaining cash flows recorded to interest income through an increase in the accretable yield.

For PCI Revolving Pools, the Company periodically evaluates credit performance to determine if there has been further deterioration in the credit quality of those pools, as described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. To the extent that the credit performance is worse than previously expected, the Company will establish an allowance for PCI Revolving Pools through a provision for loan losses. If credit performance is significantly better than expected, the Company will begin to accrete the purchase discount for PCI Revolving Pools into interest income.

Predecessor Company

Provision for loan losses for the two and eight months ended August 31, 2010, was $15.0 million and $171.6 million, respectively. The increased provision for loan losses in 2010 was reflective of the increased level of net charge-offs and nonaccrual loans experienced during that period, as economic conditions were particularly adverse in the State of California.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income primarily consists of fee income received from the operations of the Bank and gains or losses from sales of assets. Fee income is generated by servicing deposit relationships, trust and investment advisory fees, and fees and commissions earned on certain transactions from Bank operations. A significant portion of noninterest income is generated from service charges on deposit accounts and trust and advisory fees. These service charges and fees relate to the Commercial & Community Banking segment while the trust and investment advisory fees are from the Wealth Management segment.

The following table presents a summary of noninterest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, one month ended September 30, 2010, and two and eight months ended August 31, 2010.

Successor Company

Noninterest income was $13.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Trust and investment advisory fees are generated from the Wealth Management segment, primarily from the management of customer’s assets. As the value and balance of managed assets increase, fees increase accordingly. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, trust and investment advisory fees were $5.3 million. Other service charges and fees include charges for a wide range of services provided to customers such as Automated Teller Machines (“ATMs”), safe deposit boxes, bank card fees, and wire transfer fees. These fees were $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, the largest contributors of noninterest income were the same as noted above for the three month period.

Predecessor Company

For the eight months ended August 31, 2010, noninterest income was $35.8 million. Noninterest income increased primarily from the gain on sale of securities of $5.7 million. This gain was mostly attributable to a $4.5 million gain on the sale of $48.6 million of MBS and municipal securities and the call of $143.2 million of U.S. Agency and municipal securities from the AFS portfolio during the first quarter of 2010.

Successor Company

Salaries and benefits were not impacted by the purchase accounting adjustments from the Investment Transaction. Salaries and employee benefits were $25.9 million, $71.9 million and $7.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and one month ended September 30, 2010. Salaries and employee benefits have increased as additional personnel were hired to support the enhancement of the Company’s operating platform.

Net occupancy expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was impacted by purchase accounting. The purchase accounting valuations decreased future lease expense and increased depreciation expense for owned buildings. The Company is contractually required to pay for leased premises at a higher than current market rate as these leases were entered into during a stronger economic period with higher demand for commercial space. The revaluation of the leases resulted in the recognition of a liability for unfavorable lease payments. This amount is amortized as a reduction of lease expense over the lives of the contractual lease terms. The fair value of the Company’s owned properties was higher than the amortized cost at the Transaction Date due to the buildings being acquired several years ago when commercial properties had lower property values. The higher basis on the buildings has increased depreciation expense.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Successor Company

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents was $305.6 million at September 30, 2011, compared to $495.9 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $190.2 million. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is primarily attributable to the purchase of $224.8 million of loans and the purchase of $423.9 million of AFS investment securities and a decrease in deposits of $319.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. These purchases were offset by $293.6 million from the sale, call and maturity of AFS investment securities, principal paydowns of loans, and by a payment from the IRS of $50.1 million for a tax receivable related to the re-filing of previous year’s tax returns.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Successor Company

The Company’s investment security portfolio is utilized as collateral for borrowings, required collateral for public agencies and trust customers deposits, CRA support, and to manage liquidity and interest rate risk.

Investment securities were $1.45 billion at September 30, 2011, compared to $1.28 billion at December 31, 2010, an increase of $169.1 million. This increase was mostly due to purchases of $352.5 million of CMOs and $71.4 million of mortgage backed securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. These purchases were offset by principal paydowns of $128.7 million and calls and maturities of U.S. Agency Securities of $150.0 million. The investment security portfolios are managed to maximize funding and liquidity needs and are included as assets of the All Other segment.

For additional information on impairment of investment securities, credit ratings of investment securities, and the Company’s investment in the stock issued by the FHLB of San Francisco, refer to Note 3, “Investment Securities” of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

As described in the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has elected an accounting policy to apply expected cash flows accounting guidance in ASC 310-30 for term loans subject to the business combination and push-down accounting requirements for loan portfolios acquired in a business combination referred to as PCI Term Pools. Some loans that otherwise meet the definition of credit impaired, such as revolving lines of credit, are specifically excluded from the PCI Term Pools as per the accounting guidance in ASC 310-30 and are referred to as PCI Revolving Pools. The PCI Term and Revolving loans purchased through the Investment Transaction, have been pooled based on similar risk characteristics, and are accounted for as a single asset.

 

88


Table of Contents

At September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, a majority of the loans included in “Loans Held for Investment” are PCI Term and PCI Revolving Pools. The accounting for PCI Term and PCI Revolving Pools is significantly different from the accounting for loans originated and purchased since the Transaction Date. For a discussion of the accounting for PCI Term and PCI Revolving Pools, refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” Note 4, “Loans” and, Note 5, “Purchased Credit Impaired Pools” of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

The Company establishes an estimated allowance for inherent loan losses and records the change in this estimate through charges to current period earnings.

Successor Company

The ALLL of $4.3 million and $520,000 at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively, is for the loans originated and purchased since the Transaction Date. The increase of ALLL of $3.8 million since December 31, 2010, is attributed to the estimated credit losses inherent in the purchases and originations since the Transaction Date.

The loans originated and purchased at September 30, 2011, have a carrying balance of $381.2 million and a ratio of ALLL compared to the newly originated and purchased loans of 1.1%. At December 31, 2010, the loans originated since the Transaction Date had a carrying balance of $14.7 million and a ratio of ALLL compared to the newly originated loans of 3.5%.

ALLL Model Methodology

The methodology used to calculate the ALLL is described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loan Losses

Successor Company

Net charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, were $485,000. The net charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, by loan type is disclosed in Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Charge-off activity for PCI Loan Pools is primarily accounted for within the nonaccretable discount for the PCI Term Pools and purchase discount for PCI Revolving Pools.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonaccrual and Restructured Loans

Successor Company

When a borrower discontinues making payments as contractually required by the note, the Company must determine whether it is appropriate to continue to accrue interest. Generally, the Company places loans in a nonaccrual status and ceases recognizing interest income when the loan has become delinquent by more than 90 days and/or when Management determines that the repayment of principal and collection of interest is unlikely. The Company may decide that it is appropriate to continue to accrue interest on certain loans more than 90 days delinquent if they are well secured by collateral and collection is in process. If certain conditions are met, loans that are contractually past due more than 90 days may still accrue interest. Those conditions are that they are well-secured by collateral or guarantors and that the creditor is actively seeking collection. While still accruing interest, these loans are normally regarded as nonperforming.

 

89


Table of Contents

When a loan is placed in a nonaccrual status, any accrued but uncollected interest for the loan is reversed out of interest income in the period in which the status is changed. Subsequent payments received from the customer are applied to principal and no further interest income is recognized until the principal has been made current or until circumstances have changed such that payments are again consistently received as contractually required. In the case of commercial customers, the pattern of payment must also be accompanied by a positive change in the financial condition of the borrower.

A loan may be restructured when the Company determines that a borrower’s financial condition has deteriorated, but still has the ability to repay the loan. A loan is considered to be TDR when the original terms have been modified in favor of the borrower such that either principal or interest has been forgiven, contractual payments are deferred, or the interest rate is reduced. Once a loan has been restructured for a customer, the Company considers the loan to be nonaccrual for a minimum of six months. Once the borrower has made their payments as contractually required for six months, the loan is reviewed and a determination is made whether the loan can begin to accrue interest. Loans in the PCI Term Pools that had been classified as TDRs prior to the Transaction Date are no longer considered TDRs following the application of purchase accounting. Refer to Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statements, for more information on the treatment of TDRs.

Note 6, “Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” of the Consolidated Financial Statements provides an aging table of past due loans on an individual basis based on their contractual obligation. If a loan is in a PCI Term Pool and contractually past due, the loan is reported in the aging table as a past due loan but, still accruing. The aging table provides the net carrying value of all loans in a current, 30-89 days past due, 90 days or more past due still accruing, and loans on nonaccrual status. Nonaccrual loans, including TDRs, were $26.8 million at September 30, 2011, compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2010.

The reporting for nonperforming loans was significantly impacted by the classification of all purchased loans as either PCI Term Pools or PCI Revolving Pools. The accounting for PCI Term Pools and PCI Revolving Pools is described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Consolidated Financial Statements. All loans were written down to their fair value which is based on the expected cash flows for both interest and principal, net charge-offs and prepayments expected to be received. Therefore no loans recorded as of the Transaction Date that are classified as nonaccrual except for loans which are in the PCI Revolving Pools and any loans originated or purchased since the Transaction Date which met the criteria as a nonperforming loan. At September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, there were no loans which had been originated or purchased since the Transaction Date which are considered to be nonperforming.

Other Real Estate Owned

OREO is originally recorded in the Company’s financial records at the lower of its carrying value or fair value of the property, less estimated costs to sell. If the outstanding balance of the loan is greater than the fair value of the OREO at the time of foreclosure, the difference is charged-off against the ALLL.

Once the collateral is foreclosed on and the property becomes an OREO, Management periodically obtains valuations to determine if further valuation adjustments are required. If there is a decrease in the fair value of the property on the valuation date, the decrease in value is charged to noninterest income as a valuation adjustment. During the time the property is held, all related operating and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. All income produced from OREOs is included in noninterest income.

Table of Contents

At September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, the balance of OREO was $48.4 million and $40.8 million, respectively. The increase of $7.6 million was due to the addition of $46.8 million of new OREOs, offset by sales of $34.3 million and an increase in the valuation allowance of $4.9 million.

OTHER ASSETS

Included within other assets are BOLI, LIHTCPs, Receivables, and FHLB stock.

Successor Company

Other assets were $225.3 million at September 30, 2011, compared to $284.3 million at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $ 59.0 million or 20.7%. This decrease is attributed primarily to the payments of $50.1 million from the IRS which was applied against the corporate tax receivable, the sale of $19.5 million in LIHTCP, offset by increased OREO of $7.6 million. The increase in OREO was due to $46.8 million in new OREO properties, offset by sales of $34.3 million and valuation allowances of $4.9 million since December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, the corporate tax receivable was $56.8 million, the amount estimated to be recovered through carryback of NOLs.

As of September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, both the Company and SBB&T met the minimum levels for the three regulatory ratios to be considered “well capitalized.”

On September 2, 2010, the Bank entered into the Operating Agreement with the OCC, pursuant to which, among other things, the Bank agreed to maintain total capital at least equal to 12% of risk-weighted assets and Tier 1 capital at least equal to 8% of adjusted total assets and to not pay any dividend or reduce its capital without the prior non-objection of the OCC and unless at least three years have elapsed since the effective date of the Operating Agreement. The Bank was in compliance with these minimum capital ratios at September 30, 2011, with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.9% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 18.1%.

Additional Capital

In order to ensure adequate levels of capital, the Company conducts an ongoing assessment of projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and the level of risk. As part of this ongoing assessment, the Board of Directors reviews the various components of capital, the costs, benefits and impact of raising additional capital and the availability of alternative sources of capital. Based on the Board of Directors analysis of the Company’s capital needs (including any capital needs arising out of its financial condition and results of operations or from any acquisitions it may make) and the input of the regulators, the Company could decide or be required by its regulators to raise additional capital.

The Company’s ability to raise additional capital if and when needed will depend on conditions in the capital markets, which are outside the Company’s control, and on the Company’s financial performance. Accordingly, the Company cannot be certain of its ability to raise additional capital on acceptable terms. If the Company cannot raise additional capital if and when necessary, its results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected, and it may be subject to further supervisory action. In addition, if the Company were to raise additional capital through the issuance of additional shares, its stock price could be adversely affected, depending on the terms of any shares it were to issue and the percentage ownership of existing shareholders would be reduced.

Dividends from the Bank

The principal source of funds from which Bancorp services its debt and pays its obligations and dividends is the receipt of dividends from the Bank. The availability of dividends from the Bank is limited by various statutes and regulations. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Bank may not pay a dividend or make a capital distribution to Bancorp without prior approval from the OCC or until September 2, 2013. The Written Agreement also restricts the taking of dividends or any other payment representing a reduction in capital from the Bank, without the prior approval of the Reserve Bank. At September 30, 2011, Bancorp held $73.2 million in cash, which is sufficient to service its debts for the foreseeable future.

Deferral of Interest on Trust Preferred Securities

In the second quarter of 2009, the Company elected to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on its outstanding $69.4 million of junior subordinated notes relating to its trust preferred securities. During the deferral period, interest continues to accrue on the junior subordinated notes at the stated coupon rate, including the deferred interest, and the Company may not, among other things and with limited exceptions, pay cash dividends on or repurchase its common stock or preferred stock nor make any payment on outstanding debt obligations that rank equally with or are junior to the junior subordinated notes. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has accrued but not paid $5.1 million of interest expense for the junior subordinated notes.

As a result of the Company’s deferral of interest on the junior subordinated notes, it is likely that the Company will not be able to raise funds through the offering of debt securities until the Company becomes current on these obligations or these obligations are restructured. This deferral may also adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain debt financing on commercially reasonable terms. As a result, the Company will likely have greater difficulty in obtaining financing and, thus, will have fewer sources to enhance its capital and liquidity position. In addition, if the Company defers interest payments on the junior subordinated notes for more than 20 consecutive quarters, the Company would be in default under the governing agreements for such notes and the amount due under such agreements would be immediately due and payable. Under the terms of the Written Agreement, the Company must obtain permission from the Reserve Bank to bring interest current on these notes.

Dividends on Common Stock

In the second quarter of 2009, the Board of Directors elected to suspend the payment of cash dividends on its common stock to preserve capital and liquidity. As a result of the Written Agreement, Reserve Bank approval will be required before the Company can resume paying cash dividends on its common stock.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity risk is the risk of an institution being unable to meet obligations when they come due and includes an inability to manage unplanned decreases or changes in funding sources. Liquidity risks can be segmented into two categories, either exogenous or endogenous risks. Exogenous risks are systemic in nature and typically outside the control of an organization and affect all market participants to varying extents (e.g. the disruptions in the overall asset securitization market). Endogenous risks are localized to a specific organization and are usually within its control (e.g. poor liquidity management or headline risk).

The Company believes that maintaining a strong liquidity position, including in stressed conditions, is imperative for it to operate in a safe and sound manner. The Company’s principal goal regarding liquidity will be to have access to cash at all times, even during a period of severe liquidity stress, to maintain a conservative and diversified funding base to the extent possible, and to hold high credit quality investment securities that can be quickly turned into cash. A key component of the Company’s liquidity risk management framework is the development of a sound and accurate process to identify and measure liquidity risk.

The Company believes that it is important to have in place comprehensive liquidity and funding policies that are intended to maintain significant flexibility to address specific liquidity events and to address broader industry or market liquidity events. The Company has policies in place regarding liquidity to ensure that the Company is following sound liquidity risk management principles. In putting together these policies, the Company has considered recent guidance provided by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).

The Company measures liquidity risk through the use of projected cash flow models that identify potential future net funding shortfalls by estimating expected cash inflows and outflows arising from assets, liabilities, derivatives, operations, and off-balance sheet arrangements over a variety of time horizons, under normal conditions and a range of stress scenarios, including scenarios of severe stress. This liquidity cash flow model allows the Company to effectively manage the timing of incoming cash flows with outgoing cash flows, and to identify and remediate potential future net funding shortfalls below the Board of Director’s approved risk tolerances.

The Company’s policy is to hold enough cash on hand to meet its daily cash needs and to withstand estimated daily cash outflows under a severe stress scenario. In addition, the Company’s policy is to meet long term cash flow needs through its available funding capacity and liquid investment securities and to withstand future cash outflows under a severe stress scenario.

Given the importance of being able to rapidly respond to negative liquidity events, the Company maintains a formal contingency funding plan (“CFP”) that clearly sets out the strategies to be taken if certain negative liquidity events were to occur. The Company’s CFP identifies negative liquidity triggering events; establishes clear lines of responsibility for action; describes the specific procedures or actions to be taken, in priority order, for the initial response; and documents the communication and escalation procedures if initial responses do not resolve the problem. The Company believes that it is currently maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet its cash needs and to withstand a severe stressed liquidity event.

Current Liquidity Status

At September 30, 2011, the Bank had a total facility and unused borrowing capacity of $1.46 billion at the FHLB. The Bank had unused borrowing capacity with the Reserve Bank of $319.9 million at September 30, 2011.

Maturity of Liabilities

At September 30, 2011, the Bank had a total of $182.6 million of brokered CDs and $25.9 million of Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARs”) CDs. The brokered CDs, excluding CDARS, have maturities from October 2011 through January 2014, with no more than $46.7 million maturing in any one month and no more than $46.7 million maturing in any one quarter.

Of the $1.46 billion in retail or non-brokered CDs at September 30, 2011, approximately $308.9 million will mature in the fourth quarter 2011, $208.2 million in the first quarter of 2012, $179.9 million in the second quarter of 2012, and $166.2 million in the third quarter of 2012. During the period between October 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, $149.5 million of CDs are expected to mature; and during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, $208.6 million are expected to mature. The remaining approximately $240.6 million have maturities extending out as far as 2019. The Bank expects that most maturing retail CDs will roll over into new certificates.

Liquidity Ratio

A prevailing liquidity ratio used in the banking industry is the net non-core funding dependence ratio and the short term non-core funding ratio as defined by regulatory practice. This ratio measures the proportion of long term assets such as loans and securities with remaining maturities of over one year that are funded by non-core funding sources and short term non-core funding sources. The Company’s net non-core funding dependency ratio was 9.61% at September 30, 2011.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of the change in the value of financial instruments due to movements in market factors. The preponderance of market risk that the Company assumes is from interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings or capital arising from movements in interest rates. The economic perspective for market risk focuses on the value of assets or liabilities in today’s interest rate environment and the sensitivity of those values to changes in interest rates.

Interest rate risk arises from differences between the timing of rate changes and the timing of cash flows (repricing risk); from changing rate relationships between different yield curves affecting assets or liabilities (basis risk); from changing rate relationships across the spectrum of maturities (yield curve risk); and from interest-related options embedded in assets or liabilities (option risk). The evaluation of interest rate risk also considers the potential effect on fee income that is sensitive to changes in interest rates.

For financial instruments that are recorded at fair value, their positions are marked-to-market and changes in the market value of the financial instrument are immediately identified through either earnings or other comprehensive income, both of which impact capital. As with most commercial banks, the Company records most of its financial instruments at historical cost. A separate approach is used to identify market risks for all financial instruments. The Company uses Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”) shock simulation model to identify the impact of market risk to capital and forecasted Net Interest Income (“NII”) shock simulation to identify the impact of interest rate risk to earnings.

 

95


Table of Contents

EVE shock simulations model the effects of an instantaneous, sustained and identical change in all market interest rates (in increments of +/- 100 basis points) on assets and liabilities, and measures the resulting increase or decrease to the Company’s equity position. EVE is the discounted value of future cash flows of all interest rate sensitive assets minus the discounted value of all interest rate sensitive liabilities, plus the book value of tangible noninterest rate sensitive assets minus tangible noninterest rate sensitive liabilities.

NII shock simulations model the impact of an instantaneous, sustained and identical change in all market interest rates (in increments of +/- 100 basis points) on future NII. NII simulates the effects that repricing has on both interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Shock analysis is objective and facilitates comparability. It is not entirely realistic in that it assumes an instantaneous and equal impact on all market rates and not all market rates respond in a parallel fashion to rising or falling interest rates. This causes asymmetry in the magnitude of changes in net interest income and net economic value resulting from the hypothetical increases and decreases in interest rates. Also, the current low rate environment with implied zero rate floors prevents a true parallel shift for downward rate shocks.

The Company measures its market risk exposure by performing +/- 200 basis point EVE shock simulations and measures the increase or decrease to the Company’s EVE position. The Company’s Board of Directors (“BOD”) has set a 15% limit for the change in equity in such simulation. The Company measures interest rate risk by performing +/- 200 basis point NII shock simulation and measures the increase or decrease in NII against the projected NII assuming flat rates over the next twelve months. The BOD has set a 10% limit for the change in net interest income in such simulation. At September 30, 2011, and June 30, 2011, the Company met the BOD approved limits for both EVE and NII.

Financial instruments respond differently from each other in a rising or falling interest rate environment. The response of each instrument depends on its structure including the contractual term, repricing features, amortization or bullet features, expected prepayments or runoff rates, rate indices, caps, floors, etc. The mismatch of these types of features between interest rate sensitive assets versus interest rate sensitive liabilities may significantly impact market risk exposure.

The Company manages its interest rate exposure by monitoring potential asset and liability mismatches and, when necessary, reduces them. This may include changing the mix of repricing features as financial instruments come due, product pricing and buying or selling financial instruments with offsetting features.

The Company can also manage its financial instrument exposure by entering into derivative contracts such as futures, forwards, swaps, or option contracts. Accordingly, the Company’s evaluation of market risk considers both derivative positions along with the non-derivative positions intended to be hedged. While derivative instruments are effective hedging tools, the Company generally has been successful at maintaining its interest rate risk profile within policy limits strictly from proactive asset/liability strategies without the use of derivatives.

Successor Company

At September 30, 2011, and June 30, 2011, the Company’s modeled EVE was $688 million and $635 million, respectively. Assuming an instantaneous 200 basis points (“bps”) increase in interest rates, the Company’s projected EVE would increase by approximately $13 million or 1.9% from the $688 million base amount at September 30, 2011, and decrease $9 million or 1.5% from the $635 million base amount at June 30, 2011. Assuming an instantaneous 200 bps decrease in interest rates, the Company’s projected EVE would increase by $31 million or 4.4% at September 30, 2011, and decrease by $6 million or 1.1% at June 30, 2011. These changes are within the Company’s policy limit of a 15% decline in EVE. Note the current low rate environment prevents a true parallel shock analysis in a downward interest rate environment, which is distorting the EVE results.

Successor Company

At September 30, 2011, the Company’s modeled projection for net interest income over the next twelve months was $213 million. Assuming an instantaneous 200 bps increase in interest rates, the Company’s projected NII would increase by approximately $17 million or 7.7% from the $213 million base amount. Assuming an instantaneous 200 bps decrease in interest rates, including a rate floor at zero percent, the Company’s projected NII would decrease by $4 million or 1.9%. These changes are within the Company’s policy limit of a 10% decline in NII.

At June 30, 2011, the Company’s modeled projection for net interest income over the next twelve months was $206 million. Assuming an instantaneous 200 bps increase in interest rates, the Company’s projected NII would increase by approximately $14 million or 6.6% from the $206 million base amount. Assuming an instantaneous 200 bps decrease in interest rates, including a rate floor at zero percent, the Company’s projected NII would decrease by $1 million or 0.4%. These changes are within the Company’s policy limit of a 10% decline in NII.

 

98


Table of Contents

The above factors impacted overall sensitivity of the Company’s EVE and NII to changes in interest rates by increasing the proportion of assets and liabilities that are either insensitive to rate changes or by lengthening the average maturity so that the effect of rate changes would be delayed.

The model utilizes certain assumptions that address optionality. These assumptions include the following:

 

  ¡  

Customers have the option to prepay their loans or withdraw their non-maturing deposits;

 

  ¡  

Issuers have the option to prepay or call their debt, on some of the securities held by the Company;

 

  ¡  

The Company has the option to prepay or call certain types of its debt;

 

  ¡  

The Company has the option to re-price its administered deposits; and

 

  ¡  

Loans include features such as interest rate resets, imbedded caps and floors, and other aspects of loan terms and conditions.

There are various limitations inherent in modeling both EVE and NII sensitivity analyses. Certain assumptions may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to market changes. Similarly, prepayment estimates and similar assumptions are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in interest rates may also affect the Company’s operating environment and operating strategies as well as those of the Company’s competitors. In addition, certain adjustable rate assets have contractual limits on the magnitude of rate changes over specified periods of time. Accordingly, the Company’s NII sensitivity analyses may provide a strong indication of the Company’s interest rate risk exposure. However, actual performance may differ from modeled results. There are no material positions, instruments or transactions that are not included in the modeling nor do any included instruments have special features that are not included.
