The Bank generates fee income from consumer and business products including fees from loans originated for sale and transaction fees earned from processing payment activity. BofI Holding,Our securities products and services are offered through Axos Clearing LLC, formerly known as COR Clearing, LLC (“Axos Clearing”), acquired on January 28, 2019 and Axos Invest, Inc. (formally known as WiseBanyan, Inc.)

Axos Invest is a Registered Investment Advisor under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, that is registered with the SEC. WiseBanyan Securities LLC, an introducing broker-dealer that is registered with the SEC and FINRA was acquired together with Axos Invest on February 26, 2019.

At June 30, 2016,2019, we had total assets of $7,601.4$11,220.2 million, loans of $6,409.1$9,420.2 million, mortgage-backed and other investment securities of $472.2$227.5 million, total deposits of $6,044.1$8,983.2 million and borrowings of $820.1$627.4 million. Because we do not incur the significantly higher fixed operating costs inherent in a branch-based distribution system, we are able to rapidly grow our deposits and assets by providing a better value to our customers and by expanding our low-cost distribution channels.
Our business strategy is to grow our loan and lease originations and our deposits to achieve increased economies of scale and reduce the cost of products and services to our customers by leveraging our distribution channels and technology. We have designed our online banking platform and our workflow processes to handle traditional banking functions with elimination of duplicate and unnecessary paperwork and human intervention. Our charter allows us to operate in all fifty states, and our online presence allows us increased flexibility to target a large number of loan and deposit customers based on demographics, geography and service needs. Our low-cost distribution channels provide opportunities to increase our core deposits and increase our loan originations by attracting new customers and developing new and innovative products and services. Our securities clearing and custody and digital wealth management platforms provide a comprehensive set of technology, clearing, cash management and lending services targeted at independent registered investment advisors and introducing broker-dealers, principals and clients of advisory firms and individuals not affiliated with an investment advisor. Our plan to integrate our clearing and wealth management platforms with our banking platform, will create an easy to use platform for customers banking and investing needs. Over time we expect our Securities Business to generate additional low-cost deposits, which would be available to fund the Banking Business.
Our long-term business plan includes the following principal objectives:
Maintain an annualized return on average common stockholders’ equity of 17.0% or better;
Annually increase average interest-earning assets by 12% or more; and
Maintain annualized efficiency ratio at the Bank to a level 40% or lower.
Segment Information
We operate through two operating segments: Banking Business and Securities Business.
The Banking Business includes a broad range of banking services including online banking, concierge banking, prepaid card services, and mortgage, vehicle and unsecured lending through online and telephonic distribution channels to serve the needs of consumers and small businesses nationally. In addition, the Banking Business focuses on providing deposit products nationwide to industry verticals (e.g., Title and Escrow), cash management products to a variety of businesses, and commercial & industrial and commercial real estate lending to clients. The Banking Business also includes a bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary service that provides specialized software and consulting services to Chapter 7 bankruptcy and non-Chapter 7 trustees and fiduciaries.
The Securities Business includes the Clearing Broker-Dealer, Registered Investment Advisor, and Introducing Broker-Dealer lines of businesses. These lines of business offer products independently to their own customers as well as to Banking Business clients. The products offered by the lines of business in the Securities Business primarily generate net interest and non-banking service fee income.
Segment results are determined based upon the management reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments. The process is designed around the organizational and management structure and, accordingly, the results derived are not necessarily comparable with similar information published by other financial institutions or in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss from operations. There are no material inter-segment sales or transfers. Certain corporate administration costs and income taxes have not been allocated to the reportable segments. Therefore, in order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, we include parent-only activities and intercompany eliminations.
BANKING BUSINESS
We distribute our deposit products through a wide range of retail distribution channels, and our deposits consist of demand, savings and time deposits accounts. We distribute our loan products through our retail, correspondent and wholesale channels, and the loans we retain are primarily first mortgages secured by single family real property and by multifamily real property as well as commercial & industrial loans to businesses. Our mortgage-backed securities consist primarily of mortgage pass-through securities issued by government-sponsored entities, and non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations, and pass-throughasset-backed mortgage-backed securities issued by private sponsors. We believe our flexibility to adjust our asset generation channels has been a competitive advantage allowing us to avoid markets and products where credit fundamentals are poor or risks and rewards are not sufficient to support our required return on equity.
Our retail distribution channels for our bank deposit and lending products include:
Multiple national online banking brands with tailored products targeted to specific consumer segments;
Affinity groups where we gain access to the affinity group’s members, and our exclusive relationships with financial advisory firms;
A business banking division focused on providing deposit products and loans to specific nationwide industry verticals (e.g., HomeownersHomeowners’ Associations) and small and medium size businesses;
A commission-based lending sales force that operates from home offices focusing primarily on the origination of single family and multifamily mortgage loans;
A commission-based lending sales force that operates from the corporateour San Diego office focusing on commercial and industrial loans to businesses;
A commission-based leasing sales force that operates from our UtahSalt Lake City office focusing on commercial and industrial leases to businesses;
A bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary services team that operates from our Kansas City office focusing on specialized software and consulting services that provide deposits; and
Inside sales teams that originate loans and deposits from self-generated internet leads, third-party purchase leads, and from our retention and cross-sell of our existing customer base.

Our commission-based sales force originates contracts for the retail purchase of such payments from leads generated by our dedicated research department through the use of proprietary research techniques. The Specialty Finance Division also utilizes direct mail and online marketing to generate leads. Since 2013, pools of structured settlement receivables have been originated for sale depending upon management’s assessment of interest rate risk, liquidity, and offers containing favorable terms.

Additionally, under
Other Consumer and Business Lending

One hundred percent of loans are manually underwritten by a seasoned underwriter with a telephone interview conducted in respect of every approved loan prior to funding. We source our unsecured loans through existing bank customers, lead aggregators and additional marketing efforts.
Through our strategic partnerships division, our Bank establishes contractual relationships with third-party service providers (“Program Managers”) possessing demonstrated expertise in managing programs involving marketing and processing financial products such as credit, debit, and prepaid cards, and small business and consumer loans. These relationships include our relationships with H&R Block, Netspend and BFS Capital, among others.

Our Bank has a limited guarantee from H&R Block that reduces our Bank’s credit exposure on these interest-free loans.
Our Bank also provides overdraft lines of credit for our qualifying deposit customers with checking accounts.
Portfolio Management
Our investment analysis capabilities are a core competency of our organization. We decide whether to hold originated assets for investment or to sell them in the capital markets based on our assessment of the yield and risk characteristics of these assets as compared to other available opportunities to deploy our capital. Because risk-adjusted returns available on acquisitions may exceed returns available through retaining assets from our origination channels, we have elected to purchase loans and securities (see discussion below) from time to time. Some of our loans and security acquisitions were purchased at discounts to par value, which enhance our effective yield through accretion into income in subsequent periods.

The ratio of the loan amount to the value of the property securing the loan is called the loan-to-value ratio (“LTV”). The following table shows the LTVs of our loan portfolio on weighted-average and median bases at June 30, 20162019. The LTVs were calculated by dividing (a) the loan principal balance less principal repayments by (b) the appraisal value of the property securing the loan.
| | | | | | Single family | | | | | | Single family | | | | |
| | Total Real Estate Mortgage Loans | | Mortgage | | Home Equity1 | Multifamily real estate secured | | Commercial real estate secured | Total Real Estate Mortgage Loans | | Mortgage | | Home Equity1 | | Multifamily real estate secured | | Commercial real estate secured |
| Weighted Average LTV | 57.24 | % | | 58.27 | % | | 46.44 | % | 54.84 | % | | 51.91 | % | 55.50 | % | | 57.23 | % | | 29.68 | % | | 52.59 | % | | 49.10 | % |

1 Amounts represent combined LTV calculated by adding the current balances of both the first and second liens of the borrower and dividing that sum by an independent estimated value of the property at the time of origination.
We believe ourOur effective weighted-average LTV of 59.08%55.77% for real estate mortgage loans originated during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016,2019 has resulted, and we believe will continue to result, in relatively low average loan defaults and favorable write-off experience.
Loan Underwriting Process and Criteria. We individually underwrite the loans that we originate and all loans that we purchase. For our brand partnership lending products, we construct or validate loan origination models to meet our minimum standards as further described below. Our loan underwriting policies and procedures are written and adopted by our board of directors and our credit committee. Credit extensions generated by the Bank conform to the intent and technical requirements of our lending policies and the applicable lending regulations of our federal regulators.
In the underwriting process we consider all relevant factors including the borrower’s credit score, credit history, documented income, existing and new debt obligations, the value of the collateral, and other internal and external factors. For all multifamily and commercial loans, we rely primarily on the cash flow from the underlying property as the expected source of repayment, but we also endeavor to obtain personal guarantees from all material owners or partners of the borrower. In evaluating a multifamily or commercial credit, we consider all relevant factors including the outside financial assets of the material owners or partners, payment history at the Bank or other financial institutions, and the management / ownership experience with similar properties or businesses. In evaluating the borrower’s qualifications, we consider primarily the borrower’s other financial resources, experience in owning or managing similar properties and payment history with us or other financial institutions. In evaluating the underlying property, we consider primarily the recurring net operating income of the property before debt service and depreciation, the ratio of net operating income to debt service and the ratio of the loan amount to the appraised value.
Lending Limits. As a savings association, we are generally subject to the same lending limit rules applicable to national banks. With limited exceptions, the maximum amount that we may lend to any borrower, including related entities of the borrower, at any one time may not exceed 15% of our unimpaired capital and surplus, plus an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral. See “Regulation of BofI FederalAxos Bank” for further information. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Bank’s loans-to-one-borrower limit was $105.1$148.5 million, based upon the 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus measurement. At June 30, 2016,2019, our largest loan and single lending relationship was $53.2$140.0 million.
Loan and Lease Quality and Credit Risk. Historically, our level of non-performing mortgage loans as a percentage of our loan and lease portfolio has been relatively low compared to the overall residential lending market. The economy and the mortgage and consumer credit markets have stabilized. Additionally, we have recently increased our efforts to make loans to businesses through lending programs that are not as seasoned as our mortgage lending. Therefore, we anticipate that our rate of non-performing loans and leases may increase in the future, and we have provided an allowance for estimated loan and lease losses.
Non-performing assets are defined as non-performing loans and leases, real estate acquired by foreclosure or deed-in-lieu thereof.thereof and repossessed vehicles. Generally, non-performing loans and leases are defined as nonaccrual loans and leases and loans and leases 90 days or more overdue. Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are defined as loans that we have agreed to modify by accepting below market terms either by granting interest rate concessions or by deferring principal or interest payments due to financial difficulty of the customer. Our policy with respect to non-performing assets is to place such assets on nonaccrual status when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest will be deducted from interest income. Our general policy is to not accrue interest on loans and leases past due 90 days or more, unless the individual borrower circumstances dictate otherwise.
See Management’s Discussion and Analysis — “Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Loss”and Lease Losses” for a history of non-performing assets and allowance for loan loss.and lease losses.
Investment Securities Portfolio. We classify each investment security according to our intent to hold the security to maturity, trade the security at fair value or make the security available-for-sale. We invest available funds in government and high-grade non-agency securities. Our investment policy, as established by our Board of Directors, is designed to maintain liquidity and generate a favorable return on investment without incurring undue interest rate risk, credit risk or portfolio asset concentration risk. Under our investment policy, we are currently authorized to invest in agency mortgage-backed obligations issued or fully guaranteed by the United States government, non-agency mortgage-backed obligations, specific federal agency obligations, municipal obligations, specific time deposits, negotiable certificates of deposit issued by commercial banks and other insured financial institutions, investment grade corporate debt securities and other specified investments. We also buy and sell securities to facilitate liquidity and to help manage our interest rate risk. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company elected to reclassify all of its held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale. See Note 4 – “Securities” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
The following table sets forth the dollar amount of our securities portfolio by intent at the end of each of the last five fiscal years:

1 Weighted-average yield is based on amortized cost of the securities. Residential mortgage-backed security yields and maturities include impact of expected prepayments and other timing factors such as interest rate forward curve. Yields presented in this table are adjusted for OTTI, which is non-accretable.

Our securities portfolio of $472.2$227.5 million at June 30, 20162019 is composed of approximately 14.6%4.2% U.S. agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) and other debt securities issued by the government-sponsored enterprises primarily, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (each, a “GSE” and, together, the “GSEs”), primarily Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae;; 0.8% U.S. Treasury securities; 0.6% Prime private-issue super senior, first-lien RMBS; 3.1% Alt-A, private-issue super senior, first-lien RMBS; 24.6%5.1% Pay-Option ARM, private-issue super senior first-lien RMBS; 15.0%9.3% Municipal securities and 42.1% other residential mortgage-backed,80.0% asset-backed and bank pooled trust preferred securities.whole business securities secured by consumer receivables. We had no commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), sub-prime RMBS, or sub-prime RMBSbank pooled trust preferred securities at June 30, 2016.2019.
We manage the credit risk of our non-agency RMBS by purchasing those securities which we believe have the most favorable blend of historic credit performance and remaining credit enhancements including subordination, over collateralization, excess spread and purchase discounts. Substantially all of our non-agency RMBS are super senior tranches protected against realized loss by subordinated tranches. The amount of structural subordination available to protect each of our securities (expressed as a percentage of the current face value) is known as credit enhancement. At June 30, 2016,2019, the weighted-average credit enhancement in our entire non-agency RMBS portfolio was 20.0%19.0%. The credit enhancement percentage and the ratings agency grade (e.g. “AA”) do not consider additional credit protection available to the Bank, if needed, from its purchase discount. All of the Bank’s non-agency RMBS purchases were at a discount to par and we do not solely rely upon nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSRO”) ratings when determining classification. This change in Bank policy was brought about by changes in regulatory stance regarding classification of securities as mandated by Congress under section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Act, which required any reference to, or reliance on, NRSROs to be removed when determining the creditworthiness of securities. We have experienced personnel monitor the performance and measure the security for impairment in accordance with regulatory guidance. As of June 30, 2016, 10.4%2019, 26.9% of our non-agency RMBS securities have been downgraded from investment grade at acquisition to below investment grade.

We believe our deposit franchise will continue to provide lower all-in funding costs (interest expense plus operating costs) with greater scalability than branch-intensive banking models because the traditional branch model with high fixed operating costs will experience continued declines in consumer traffic due to the decline in paper check deposits and due to growing consumer preferences to bank online.

SECURITIES BUSINESS
Our Securities Business consists of two sets of products and services, securities services provided to third-party securities firms and investment management provided to consumers.
Securities services. We offer fully disclosed clearing services through Axos Clearing to FINRA- and SEC-registered member firms for trade execution and clearance as well as back office services such as record keeping, trade reporting, accounting, general back-office support, securities and margin lending, reorganization assistance and custody of securities. At June 30, 2019, we provided services to 62 financial organizations, including correspondent broker-dealers and registered investment advisers.
We provide financing to our brokerage customers for their securities trading activities through margin loans that are collateralized by securities, cash, or other acceptable collateral. We earn a spread equal to the difference between the amount we pay to fund the margin loans and the amount of interest income we receive from our customers.
We conduct securities lending activities that include borrowing and lending securities with other broker-dealers. These activities involve borrowing securities to cover short sales and to complete transactions in which clients have failed to deliver securities by the required settlement date, and lending securities to other broker dealers for similar purposes. The net revenues for this business consist of the interest spreads generated on these activities.
We assist our brokerage customers in managing their cash balances and earn a fee through an insured bank deposit cash sweep program.
Investment management. Through our digital wealth management business, Axos Invest, we provide our retail customers with investment management services through a comprehensive and flexible technology platform. We expect to integrate our digital wealth management platform into our universal digital banking platform in the near future, creating a seamless user experience and a holistic personal financial management ecosystem. Our digital wealth management business generates fee income from clients paying for premium services and deposits from uninvested cash balances.
Borrowings. In addition to deposits, we have historically funded our asset growth through advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB”). Our bank can borrow up to 40% of its total assets from the FHLB, and borrowings are collateralized by mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities pledged to the FHLB. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Company had $727.0$458.5 million advances outstanding with another $1.3$2.0 billion available immediately, and an additional $13.0 million available with additional collateralwhich represents a fully collateralized position, for advances from the FHLB for terms up to ten years.
The Bank has federal funds lines of credit with two major banks totaling $35.0 million. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Bank had no outstanding balance on either line.
The Bank can also borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”), and borrowings aremay be collateralized by commercial, consumer and mortgage loans and mortgage-backedas well as securities pledged to the FRB. Based on loans and securities pledged at June 30, 2016,2019, we had a total borrowing capacity of approximately $42.2 million,$1.6 billion, none of which was outstanding. The Bank has additional unencumbered collateral that could be pledged to the FRB Discount Window to increase borrowing liquidity.
The CompanyAxos Clearing has sold securities under various agreements to repurchasea total of $155.0 million uncommitted secured lines of credit available for total proceeds of $35.0 million. The repurchase agreements have fixed interest rates between 3.75% and 4.75% and scheduled maturities between April 2017 and December 2017. Pursuant to these agreements, under certain conditions, the Company may be required to repay the $35.0 million and repurchase its securities before the scheduled maturity if the issuer requests repayment on scheduled quarterly call dates.borrowing as needed. As of June 30, 2016,2019, there was $106.8 million outstanding.

On December 16, 2004, we completed a transaction in which we formed a trust and issued $5.2$5.0 million of trust-preferred securities. The net proceeds from the offering were used to purchase approximately $5.2 million of junior subordinated debentures of our companyCompany with a stated maturity date of February 23, 2035. The debentures are the sole assets of the trust. The trust preferred securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. We have the right to redeem the debentures in whole (but not in part) on or after specific dates, at a redemption price specified in the indenture plus any accrued but unpaid interest through the redemption date. Interest accrues at the rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.4%, for a rate of 3.05%4.92% as of June 30, 2016,2019, and is paid quarterly.
In March 2016, we completed the sale of $51.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 6.25% Subordinated Notes due February 28, 2026 (the “Notes”). We received $51.0 million in gross proceeds as a part of this transaction, before the 3.15% underwriting discount and other offering expenses. The Notes mature on February 28, 2026 and accrue interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum, with interest payable quarterly. The Notes may be redeemed on or after March 31, 2021, which date may be extended at our discretion, at a redemption price equal to principal plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to certain conditions.
On January 28, 2019, we issued subordinated notes totaling $7.5 million, to the principal stockholders of COR Securities in an equal principal amount, with a maturity of 15 months, to serve as the sole source of payment of indemnification obligations of the principal stakeholders of COR Securities under the Merger Agreement. Interest accrues at a rate of 6.25% per annum. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, $0.1 million of subordinated loans were repaid.

SECURITY
BofI Federal Bank recognizesWe recognize that information is a critical asset. How information is managed, controlled and protected has a significant impact on the delivery of services. Information assets, including those held in trust, must be protected from unauthorized use, disclosure, theft, loss, destruction and alteration.
BofI Federal Bank employsWe employ an information security program to achieve itsour security objectives. The program is designed to identify, measure, manage and control the risks to system and data availability, integrity, and confidentiality, and to ensure accountability for system actions.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
We register our various Internet URL addresses with service companies, and work actively with bank regulators to identify potential naming conflicts with competing financial institutions. Policing unauthorized use of proprietary information is difficult and litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights. We own certain Internet domain names. Domain names in the United States and in foreign countries are regulated, and the laws and regulations governing the Internet are continually evolving. Additionally, the relationship between regulations governing domain names and laws protecting intellectual property rights is not entirely clear. As a result, in the future, we may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that infringe or otherwise decrease the value of our trademark and other intellectual property rights.
EMPLOYEES
At June 30, 2016,2019, we had 6471007 full-time equivalent employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or isare subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppage and consider our relations with our employees to be satisfactory.
COMPETITION
The market for banking and financial services is intensely competitive, and we expect competition to continue to intensify in the future. The Bank attracts deposits through its branchlessonline acquisition channels. Competition for those deposits comes from a wide variety of other banks, savings institutions, and credit unions. The Bank competes for these deposits by offering superior service and a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates.
In real estate lending, we compete against traditional real estate lenders, including large and small savings banks, commercial banks, mortgage bankers and mortgage brokers. Many of our current and potential competitors have greater brand recognition, longer operating histories, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources and are capable of providing strong price and customer service competition. In order to compete profitably, we may need to reduce the rates we offer on loans and leases and investments and increase the rates we offer on deposits, which may adversely affect our overall financial condition and earnings. We may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors.
REGULATION
GENERAL
BofI Holding,Axos Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) is regulated as a savings and loan holding company by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). The Company is required to file reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the Federal Reserve. The Bank, as a federal savings bank, is subject to regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) as its primary regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) as its deposit insurer. The Bank must file reports with the OCC and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition. Pursuant to theThe Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), enacted on July 21, 2010, the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) was abolished as of July 21, 2011 (the “Transfer Date”), and its rights and duties transferred to the Federal Reserve as to savings and loan holding companies, and to the OCC as to savings banks. Therefore, as of the Transfer Date the Company became subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve rather than the OTS, and the Bank became subject to regulation by the OCC rather than the OTS. The Dodd-Frank Act also created a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) as an independent bureau of the Federal Reserve to begin operations on the Transfer Date. The CFPBthat has broad authority to issue regulations implementing numerous consumer laws, to which we are subject.
The regulation of savings and loan holding companies and savings associations is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and not for the benefit of our stockholders. The following information describes aspects of the material laws and regulations applicable to the Company and the Bank. The information below does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, new and amended legislation, rules and regulations governing the Company and the Bank are introduced from time to time by the U.S. government and its various agencies. Any such legislation, regulatory changes or amendments could adversely affect the Company or the Bank, and no assurance can be given as to whether, or in what form, any such changes may occur.
REGULATION OF BOFIFINANCIAL HOLDING INC.COMPANY.
General. BofI Holding, Inc. (the “Company”)The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the Home Owner’sOwners’ Loan Act (“HOLA”)., and is treated as a “financial holding company” under Federal Reserve rules. Accordingly, the Company is registered as a savings and loan holding company with the Federal Reserve and is subject to the Federal Reserve’s regulations, examinations, supervision and reporting requirements. In addition, the Federal Reserve has enforcement authority over the Company and its subsidiaries. Among other things, this authority permits the Federal Reserve to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings institution.
As noted above, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve assumed responsibility for the primary supervision and regulation of all savings and loan holding companies, including the Company, on July 21, 2011. Rules published by the Federal Reserve in 2011 provide for the transfer from the OTS to the Federal Reserve of the regulations necessary for the Federal Reserve to administer the statutes governing savings and loan holding companies, and implemented Regulation LL, which includes comprehensive new regulations governing the activities and operations of savings and loan holding companies and acquisitions of savings associations. The Federal Reserve’s regulations supersede OTS regulations for purposes of Federal Reserve supervision and regulation of savings and loan holding companies.
Capital.Savings and loan holding companies, such as the Company, were historically not subject to specific regulatory capital requirements. However, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, savings and loan holding companies are now subject to the same capital and activity requirements as those applicable to bank holding companies. Moreover, the Dodd-Frank Act required that the Federal Reserve promulgate consolidated capital requirements for depository institution holding companies that are not less stringent, both quantitatively and in terms of components of capital, than those applicable to institutions themselves.
In July 2013, the Company’s primary federal regulator, the Federal Reserve, and the Bank’s primary federal regulator, the OCC, published final rules (the “New Capital Rules”) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. The rules implement the Basel Committee’s December 2010 capital framework known as “Basel III” for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The New Capital Rules substantially revise the capital requirements applicable to depository institutions and their holding companies, including the
Company and the Bank, and are discussed in more detail below under “Regulation of BofI FederalAxos Bank – Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Action”.
Source of Strength. The Dodd-Frank Act extends the Federal Reserve “source of strength” doctrine to savings and loan holding companies. Such policy requires holding companies to act as a source of financial strength to their subsidiary depository institutions by providing capital, liquidity and other support in times of an institution’s financial distress. The regulatory agencies have yet to issue joint regulations implementing this policy.
Change in Control. The federal banking laws require that appropriate regulatory approvals must be obtained before an individual or company may take actions to “control” a bank or savings association. The definition of control found in the HOLA is similar to that found in the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (“BHCA”) for bank holding companies. Both statutes apply a similar three-prong test for determining when a company controls a bank or savings association. Specifically, a company has control over either a bank or savings association if the company:
directly or indirectly or acting in concert with one or more persons, owns, controls, or has the power to vote 25% or more of the voting securities of a company;
controls in any manner the election of a majority of the directors (or any individual who performs similar functions in respect of any company, including a trustee under a trust) of the board; or
directly or indirectly exercises a controlling influence over the management or policies of the bank.
Regulation LL, which was implemented in 2011 by the Federal Reserve, includes a specific definition of “control” similar to the statutory definition, with certain additional provisions. Additionally, Regulation LL modifies the regulations previously used by the OTS for purposes of determining when a company or natural person acquires control of a savings association or savings and loan holding company under the HOLA or the Change in Bank Control Act (“CBCA”). In light of the similarity between the statutes governing bank holding companies and savings and loan holding companies, the Federal Reserve has indicated that it intends to useuses its established rules and processes with respect to control determinations under HOLA and the CBCA to ensure consistency between equivalent statutes administered by the same agency. Overall, the indication of control used by the Federal Reserve under the BHCA to determine whether a company has a controlling influence over the management or policies of a banking organization (which for Federal Reserve purposes, will now include savings associations and savings and loan holding companies) are similar to the control factors found in the former OTS regulations. However, the OTS rules weighed these factors somewhat differently and used a different review process designed to be more mechanical.
Furthermore, the Federal Reserve may not approve any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than one state, subject to two exceptions; (i) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies and (ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such acquisition. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions.
In August 2018 the Company received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and became a savings and loan holding company that is treated as a financial holding company under the rules and regulations of the Federal Reserve. Financial holding companies are generally permitted to affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are "financial in nature." Such activities include, among other things, securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking activities; and activities that the Federal Reserve has determined to be closely related to banking. No regulatory approval is required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve.
REGULATION OF BOFI FEDERAL BANKBANKING BUSINESS
General. As a federally-chartered savings and loan association whose deposit accounts are insured by FDIC, BofI FederalAxos Bank is subject to extensive regulation by the FDIC and as of the Transfer Date, the OCC. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the examination, regulation and supervision of savings associations, such as BofI FederalAxos Bank, were transferred from the OTS to the OCC, the federal regulator of national banks under the National Bank Act. The following discussion summarizes some of the principal areas of regulation applicable to the Bank and its operations.
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The FDIC administers a deposit insurance fund (the “DIF”) that insures depositors in certain types of accounts up to a prescribed amount for the loss of any such depositor’s respective deposits due to the failure of an FDIC member depository institution. As the administrator of the DIF, the FDIC assesses its member depository institutions and determines the appropriate DIF premiums to be paid by each such institution. The FDIC is authorized to examine its member institutions and to require that they file periodic reports of their condition and operations. The FDIC may also prohibit any member institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the DIF. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings associations, after giving the primary federal regulator now the OCC, the opportunity to take such action. The FDIC may terminate an institution’s access to the DIF if it determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. We do not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of our access to the DIF.
BofI FederalAxos Bank is a member depository institution of the FDIC and its deposits are insured by the DIF up to the applicable limits, which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U. S.U.S. Government. Effective with the passing of the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010, the basic deposit insurance limit was permanently raised to $250,000, instead of the $100,000 limit previously in effect.
Beginning in late 2008, the economic environment caused higher levels of bank failures, which dramatically increased FDIC resolution costs and led to a significant reduction in the DIF. As a result, the FDIC has significantly increased the initial base assessment rates paid by member institutions for access to the DIF. The base assessment rate was increased by seven basis points (seven cents for every $100 of deposits) for the first quarter of 2009. Effective April 1, 2009, initial base assessment rates were changed to range from 12 basis points to 45 basis points across all risk categories with possible adjustments to these rates based on certain debt-related components. These increases in the base assessment rate have increased our deposit insurance costs and negatively impacted our earnings. In addition, in May 2009, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on all member institutions due to recent bank and savings association failures. The emergency assessment amounted to five basis points on each institution’s assets minus Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009, subject to a maximum equal to 10 basis points times the institution’s assessment base. Management cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.
Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Action. The prompt corrective action regulation of the OCC requires mandatory actions and authorizes other discretionary actions to be taken by the OCC against a savings association that falls within undercapitalized capital categories specified in OCC regulations.
The New Capital Rules narrow the definition of regulatory capital and establish higher minimum risk-based capital ratios that when fully phased in, will requireas of January 1, 2019, requires banking organizations to maintain a minimum “common equity Tier 1” (or “CET1”) ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% (increased from 4.0%), a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0%, and a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% (calculated as Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets). The effective date of these requirements for the Company and the Bank was January 1, 2015.
A capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above each of these levels (to be phased(phased in over three years which beganstarting in 2016, beginning at 0.625% and increasing by that amount on each subsequent January 1, until it reachesreached 2.5% on January 1, 2019) will beis required for banking institutions to avoid restrictions on their ability to make capital distributions, including the payment of dividends.
The New Capital Rules provide for a number of new deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for example, the requirement that deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in non-consolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent any one such category exceeds 10% of CET1 or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1. Implementation of the deductions and other adjustments to CET1 began on January 1, 2015 and will bewere phased in over three years for the Bank.
The implementation of certain regulations and standards relating to regulatory capital could disproportionately affect our regulatory capital position relative to that of our competitors, including those that may not be subject to the same regulatory requirements as the Bank. Various aspects of Basel III will be subject to multi-year transition periods ending December 31, 2018 and Basel III generally continuescontinue to be subject to further evaluation and interpretation by the U.S. banking regulators. As of June 30, 2016,2019, the Company and the Bank remain well-capitalized under the currently enacted capital adequacy requirements of Basel III, and would remain well-capitalized when including implementation of the deductions and other adjustments to CET1 on a fully phased-in basis.
In general, the prompt corrective action regulation prohibits an FDIC member institution from declaring any dividends, making any other capital distribution, or paying a management fee to a controlling person if, following the distribution or payment, the institution would be within any of the three undercapitalized categories. In addition, adequately capitalized institutions may accept brokered deposits only with a waiver from the FDIC, but are subject to restrictions on the interest rates that can be paid on such deposits. Undercapitalized institutions may not accept, renew or roll-over brokered deposits.
If the OCC determines that an institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition, or if the institution is deemed to be engaging in an unsafe and unsound practice, the OCC may, if the institution is well-capitalized, reclassify it as adequately capitalized. If the institution is adequately capitalized, but not well-capitalized, the OCC may require it to comply with restrictions applicable to undercapitalized institutions. If the institution is undercapitalized, the OCC may require it to comply with restrictions applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions. Finally, pursuant to an interagency agreement, the FDIC can examine any institution that has a substandard regulatory examination score or is considered undercapitalized without the express permission of the institution’s primary regulator.
Capital regulations applicable to savings associations such as the Bank also require savings associations of meetingto meet the additional capital standard of tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% of total adjusted assets.
The Bank’s capital requirements are viewed as minimum standards and most financial institutions are expected to maintain capital levels well above the minimum. In addition, OCC regulations provide that minimum capital levels greater than those provided in the regulations may be established by the OCC for individual savings associations upon a determination that the
savings association’s capital is or may become inadequate in view of its circumstances. BofI FederalAxos Bank is not subject to any such individual minimum regulatory capital requirement and the Bank’s regulatory capital exceeded all minimum regulatory capital requirements as of June 30, 2016.2019. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
Stress Testing. Enhanced prudential standards for larger institutions mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act were implemented by FRB regulation, which require additional risk management policies and practices and annual stress testing designed to determine whether capital planning, assessment of capital adequacy and risk management practices of regulated bank and savings and loan holding companies adequately protect them in the event of an economic downturn. The original FRB rules implemented stress tests to be conducted by the FRB and company-run stress tests for institutions with total consolidated assets of $10 billion or more. Our total assets exceeded $10 billion beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2019.
However, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (the “Economic Growth Act”) enacted in May 2018 scaled back certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, including the requirement to conduct an annual stress test that projects performance under various economic scenarios. The annual stress test requirement no longer applies to the Company, as a savings and loan holding company with less than $100 billion in total consolidated assets. Under the Economic Growth Act, the Bank will also become exempt from Dodd-Frank Act stress testing effective November 25, 2019; however, the FRB has extended the deadline for all regulatory requirements related to company-run stress testing for institutions with average total assets of less than $100 billion until such effective date, thereby effectively exempting the Bank from stress-testing requirements as of the enactment of the Economic Growth Act.
Notwithstanding the Economic Growth Act’s amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act stress testing requirements, the federal banking agencies have indicated through interagency guidance that the capital planning and risk management practices of financial institutions with total assets less than $100 billion would continue to be reviewed through the regular supervisory process. We will continue to monitor our capital consistent with the safety and soundness expectations of the FRB and will continue to use customized stress testing as part of our capital planning process
Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking regulatory agencies have prescribed, by regulation, guidelines for all insured depository institutions relating to: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure; (v) asset growth; (vi) asset quality; (vii) earnings; and (viii) compensation, fees and benefits. The guidelines set forth safety and soundness standards that the federal banking regulatory agencies use to identify and address problems at FDIC member institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the OCC determines that the Bank fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the OCC may require us to submit to it an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard. OCC regulations establish deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans in response to any such determination. We are not aware of any conditions relating to these safety and soundness standards that would require us to submit a plan of compliance to the OCC.
Loans-to-One-Borrower Limitations. Savings associations generally are subject to the lending limits applicable to national banks. With limited exceptions, the maximum amount that a savings association or a national bank may lend to any borrower, including related entities of the borrower, at one time may not exceed 15% of the unimpaired capital and surplus of the institution, plus an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral. Savings associations are additionally authorized to make loans to one borrower by order of its regulator, in an amount not to exceed the lesser of $30.0 million or 30% of unimpaired capital and surplus for the purpose of developing residential housing, if the following specified conditions are met:
The savings association is in compliance with its fully phased-in capital requirements;
The loans comply with applicable loan-to-value requirements; and
The aggregate amount of loans made under this authority does not exceed 150% of unimpaired capital and surplus.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Savings associations must meet a qualified thrift lender, or “QTL,” test. This test may be met either by maintaining a specified level of portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments as specified by the HOLA, or by meeting the definition of a “domestic building and loan association” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the “Code”. Qualified thrift investments are primarily residential mortgage loans and related investments, including mortgage related securities. Portfolio assets generally mean total assets less specified liquid assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and the value of property used in the conduct of the Bank’s business. The required percentage of qualified thrift investments under the HOLA is 65% of “portfolio assets” (defined as total assets less: (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business). An association must be in compliance with the QTL test or the definition of domestic building and loan association on a monthly basis in nine out of every 12 months. Savings associations that fail to meet the QTL test will generally be prohibited from engaging in any activity not permitted for both a
national bank and a savings association. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Bank was in compliance with its QTL requirement and met the definition of a domestic building and loan association.
Liquidity Standard. Savings associations are required to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations. As of June 30, 2016, BofI Federal2019, Axos Bank was in compliance with the applicable liquidity standard.
Volcker Rule. Effective April 15, 2014, the federal banking agencies have adopted regulations with a conformance period for certain features lastingthat lasted until July 21, 2017, to implement the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act known as the Volcker Rule. Under the regulations, FDIC-insured depository institutions, their holding companies, subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “banking entities”), are generally prohibited, subject to certain exemptions, from proprietary trading of securities and other financial instruments and from acquiring or retaining an ownership interest in a “covered fund.” The term “covered fund” can include, in addition to many private equity and hedge funds and other entities, certain collateralized mortgage obligations, collateralized debt obligations and collateralized loan obligations, and other items, but does not include wholly owned subsidiaries, certain joint ventures, or loan securitizations generally if the underlying assets are solely loans.
Trading in certain government obligations is not prohibited by the Volcker Rule, including obligations of or guaranteed by the United States or an agency or government-sponsored entity of the United States, obligations of a State of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, and municipal securities. Proprietary trading generally does not include transactions under repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions and purchases and sales for the purpose of liquidity management if the liquidity management plan meets specified criteria; nor does it generally include transactions undertaken in a fiduciary capacity. In addition, activities eligible for exemption include, among others, certain brokerage, underwriting and marketing activities, and risk-mitigating hedging activities with respect to specific risks and subject to specified conditions. As of June 30, 2019, Axos Bank was in compliance with the Volcker Rule.
Transactions with Related Parties. The authority of the Bank to engage in transactions with “affiliates” (i.e., any company that controls or is under common control with it, including the Company and any non-depository institution subsidiaries) is limited by federal law. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate is limited to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of a savings institution’s capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in federal law. The purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Transactions with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances that are at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies, and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally prohibits loans by public companies to their executive officers and directors. However, there is a specific exception for loans by financial institutions, such as the Bank, to its executive officers and directors that are made in compliance with federal banking laws. Under such laws, our authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors, and 10% or more shareholders (“insiders”), as well as entities such person’spersons control, is limited. The law limits both the individual and aggregate amount of loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on its capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. Such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and cannot involve more than the normal risk of repayment. There is an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees.
Capital Distribution Limitations. Regulations applicable to the Bank impose limitations upon all capital distributions by savings associations, like cash dividends, payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to stockholders of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against capital. Under these regulations, a savings association may, in circumstances described in those regulations:
Be required to file an application and await approval from the OCC before it makes a capital distribution;
Be required to file a notice 30 days before the capital distribution; or
Be permitted to make the capital distribution without notice or application to the OCC.
Community Reinvestment Act and the Fair Lending Laws. Savings associations have a responsibility under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations of the OCC to help meet the credit needs of their communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. In addition, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act prohibit lenders from discriminating in their lending practices on the basis of characteristics specified in those statutes. An institution’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act could, at a minimum, result in regulatory restrictions on its activities and the denial of applications. In addition, an institution’s failure to comply with the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act could result in the OCC, other federal regulatory agencies or the Department of Justice, taking enforcement
actions against the institution. In the most recent Community Reinvestment Act Report, issued May 2019, the Bank received a ‘Satisfactory’ rating covering calendar years 2016, 2017, and 2018. To the best of our knowledge, BofI FederalAxos Bank is incontinues to maintain full compliance with each of the Community Reinvestment Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act and we do not anticipate the Bank becoming the subject of any enforcement actions.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Among other benefits, each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. Each FHLB is financed primarily from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. Each FHLB makes available loans or advances to its members in compliance with the policies and procedures established by the board of directors of the individual FHLB. As an FHLB member, the Bank is required to own capital stock in a Federal Home Loan Bank in specified amounts based on either its aggregate outstanding principal amount of its residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each calendar year or its outstanding advances from the FHLB.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, negotiable order of withdrawal (“NOW”), and Super NOW checking accounts) and non-personal time deposits. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Bank was in compliance with these requirements.
Activities of Subsidiaries. A savings association seeking to establish a new subsidiary, acquire control of an existing company or conduct a new activity through a subsidiary must provide 30 days prior notice to the FDIC and the OCC and conduct any activities of the subsidiary in compliance with regulations and orders of the OCC. The OCC has the power to require a savings association to divest any subsidiary or terminate any activity conducted by a subsidiary that the OCC determines to pose a serious threat to the financial safety, soundness or stability of the savings association or to be otherwise inconsistent with sound banking practices.
Consumer Laws and Regulations. The Dodd-Frank Act established the CFPB in order to regulate any person who offers or provides personal, family or household financial products or services. The CFPB is an independent “watchdog” within the Federal Reserve System to enforce and create “Federal consumer financial laws.” Banks as well as nonbanks are subject to any rule, regulation or guideline created by the CFPB. Congress established the CFPB to create one agency in charge of protecting consumers by overseeing the application and implementation of “Federal consumer financial laws,” which includes (i) rules, orders and guidelines of the CFPB, (ii) all consumer financial protection functions, powers and duties transferred from other federal agencies, such as the Federal Reserve, the OCC, the FDIC, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and (iii) a long list of consumer financial protection laws enumerated in the Dodd-Frank Act, such as the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, the Consumer Leasing Act of 1976, the Alternative Mortgage Transaction Parity Act of 1982, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Truth in Lending Act and the Truth in Savings Act, among many others. The CFPB has broad examination and enforcement authority, including the power to issue subpoenas and cease and desist orders, commence civil actions, hold investigations and hearings and seek civil penalties, as well as the authority to regulate disclosures, mandate registration of any covered person and to regulate what it considers unfair, deceptive, abusive practices.
Depository institutions with $10 billion or less in assets, such as the Bank, will continue to be examined for compliance with the consumer protection laws and regulations by their primary bank regulators (the OCC for the Bank), rather than the CFPB. Such laws and regulations and the other consumer protection laws and regulations to which the Bank has been subject have historically mandated certain disclosure requirements and regulated the manner in which financial institutions must deal with customers when taking deposits from, making loans to, or engaging in other types of transactions with, such customers. The effect of the CFPB on the development and promulgation of consumer protection rules and guidelines and the enforcement of federal “consumer financial laws” on the Bank, if any, cannot be determined with certainty at this time.
Depository institutions with more than $10 billion in assets and their affiliates are subject to direct supervision by the CFPB, including any applicable examination, enforcement and reporting requirements the CFPB may establish. As of June 30, 2016,2019, we had $7.6$11.2 billion in total assets. Ifassets, placing the Bank continues to grow and has assets in excess of $10 billion in the future, the Bank and its operations will become subject tounder the direct supervision and oversight of the CFPB. The laws and regulations of the CFPB and other consumer protection laws and regulations to which the Bank is subject mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which we must deal with customers when taking deposits from, making loans to, or engaging in other types of transactions with, our customers.
In addition, if our total assets equal or exceed $10 billion, we will become subject to certain enhanced prudential standards established by FRB regulations promulgated underA section of the Dodd-Frank Act, commonly referred to as the Durbin amendment, reduced the level of interchange fees that could be charged by institutions with greater than $10 billion in total assets. The exemption for larger institutions, including additional risk management policiessmall issuers ceases to apply as of July 1st of the year following the calendar year in which the issuer has total consolidated assets of $10 billion or more at year-end. Since we have grown to hold total assets in excess of $10 billion beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2019, the Durbin amendment may reduce the amount of interchange fees that we can charge and practices and annual stress tests using various scenarios established by the FRB, designed to determine whethercould adversely affect our capital planning, assessment of capital adequacy and risk management practices adequately protect the Company in the event of an economic downturn.fee-sharing prepaid card partnerships, such as with H&R Block.
Privacy Standards. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) modernized the financial services industry by establishing a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service providers. The Bank is subject to OCC regulations implementing the privacy protection provisions of the GLBA. These regulations require the Bank to disclose its privacy policy, including informing consumers of its information sharing practices and informing consumers of their rights to opt out of certain practices.
Anti-Money Laundering and Customer Identification. The U.S. government enacted the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA(the “USA PATRIOT Act”) on October 26, 2001 in response to the terrorist events of September 11, 2001. The USA PATRIOT Act gives the federal government broad powers to address terrorist threats through enhanced domestic security measures, expanded surveillance powers, increased information sharing, and broadened anti-money laundering requirements. In February 2010, Congress re-enacted certain expiring provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act.
REGULATION OF SECURITIES BUSINESS
In early 2019, we acquired COR Clearing, LLC (now Axos Clearing LLC), a correspondent clearing firm for broker-dealers, and the WiseBanyan entities, an introducing broker and a registered investment adviser. The correspondent clearing firm and introducing broker are broker-dealers registered with the SEC and members of FINRA and various other self-regulatory organizations. Axos Clearing also uses various clearing organizations, including the Depository Trust Company, the National Securities Clearing Corporation, and the Options Clearing Corporation.
Broker-dealers are subject to extensive laws, rules and regulations covering all aspects of the securities business, including sales and trading practices, public offerings, publication of research reports, use and safekeeping of clients’ funds and securities, capital adequacy, recordkeeping and reporting, the conduct of directors, officers, and employees, qualification and licensing of supervisory and sales personnel, marketing practices, supervisory and organizational procedures intended to ensure compliance with securities laws and to prevent improper trading on material nonpublic information, limitations on extensions of credit in securities transactions, clearance and settlement procedures, and rules designed to promote high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade. Broker-dealers are also regulated by state securities administrators in those jurisdictions where they do business. Regulators may conduct periodic examinations and review reports of our operations, performance, and financial condition. Our margin lending is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board’s restrictions on lending in connection with client purchases and short sales of securities, and FINRA rules also require our broker-dealers to impose maintenance requirements based on the value of securities contained in margin accounts. The rules of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, which are enforced by the SEC and FINRA, apply to the municipal securities activities of Axos Clearing.
Violations of laws, rules and regulations governing a broker-dealer’s actions could result in censure, penalties and fines, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, the restriction, suspension, or expulsion from the securities industry of such broker-dealer, its registered representatives, officers or employees, or other similar adverse consequences.
Significant new rules and regulations continue to arise as a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, including the implementation of a more stringent fiduciary standard for broker-dealers and increased regulation of investment advisors. Compliance with these provisions could result in increased costs. Moreover, to the extent the Dodd-Frank Act affects the operations, financial condition, liquidity, and capital requirements of financial institutions with whom we do business, those institutions may seek to pass on increased costs, reduce their capacity to transact, or otherwise present inefficiencies in their interactions with us.
Limitation on Businesses. The businesses that our broker-dealers may conduct are limited by its agreements with, and its oversight by, FINRA, other regulatory authorities and federal and state law. Participation in new business lines, including trading of new products or participation on new exchanges or in new countries often requires governmental and/or exchange approvals, which may take significant time and resources. In addition, our broker-dealers are operating subsidiaries of Axos, which means its activities are further limited by those that are permissible for subsidiaries of financial holding companies, and as a result, may be prevented from entering new businesses that may be profitable in a timely manner, if at all.
Net Capital Requirements. The SEC, FINRA and various other regulatory authorities have stringent rules and regulations with respect to the maintenance of specific levels of net capital by regulated entities. Rule 15c3-1 of the Exchange Act (the “Net Capital Rule”) requires that a broker-dealer maintain minimum net capital. Generally, a broker-dealer’s net capital is net worth plus qualified subordinated debt less deductions for non-allowable (or non-liquid) assets and other adjustments and operational charges. At June 30, 2019, our broker-dealers were in compliance with applicable net capital requirements.
The SEC, CFTC, FINRA and other regulatory organizations impose rules that require notification when net capital falls below certain predefined thresholds. These rules also dictate the ratio of debt-to-equity in the regulatory capital composition of a broker-dealer, and constrain the ability of a broker-dealer to expand its business under certain circumstances. If a broker-dealer fails to maintain the required net capital, it may be subject to penalties and other regulatory sanctions, including suspension or revocation of registration by the SEC or applicable regulatory authorities, and suspension or expulsion by these regulators could ultimately lead to the broker-dealer’s liquidation. Additionally, the Net Capital Rule and certain FINRA rules impose requirements that may have the effect of prohibiting a broker-dealer from distributing or withdrawing capital and requiring prior notice to, and approval from, the SEC and FINRA for certain capital withdrawals.
Compliance with the net capital requirements may limit our operations, requiring the intensive use of capital. Such rules require that a certain percentage of our assets be maintained in relatively liquid form and therefore act to restrict our ability to withdraw capital from our broker-dealer entities, which in turn may limit our ability to pay dividends, repay debt or redeem or purchase shares of our outstanding common stock. Any change in such rules or the imposition of new rules affecting the scope, coverage, calculation or amount of capital requirements, or a significant operating loss or any unusually large charge against capital, could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends, repay debt, meet our debt covenant requirements or to expand or maintain our operations. In addition, such rules may require us to make substantial capital contributions into one or more of the our broker-dealers in order for such subsidiaries to comply with such rules, either in the form of cash or subordinated loans made in accordance with the requirements of all applicable net capital rules.
Customer Protection Rule.Our broker-dealers that hold customers’ funds and securities are subject to the SEC’s customer protection rule (Rule 15c3-3 under the Exchange Act), which generally provides that such broker-dealers maintain physical possession or control of all fully-paid securities and excess margin securities carried for the account of customers and maintain certain reserves of cash or qualified securities.
Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”). Our broker-dealers are subject to the Securities Investor Protection Act and belong to SIPC, whose primary function is to provide financial protection for the customers of failing brokerage firms. SIPC provides protection for customers up to $500,000, of which a maximum of $250,000 may be in cash.
Anti-Money Laundering. Our broker-dealers must also comply with the USA PATRIOT Act and other rules and regulations, including FINRA requirements, designed to fight international money laundering and to block terrorist access to the U.S. financial system. We are required to have systems and procedures to ensure compliance with such laws and regulations.
Investment Advisor. As an investment advisor registered with the SEC, our subsidiary Axos Invest, Inc. (doing business as “WiseBanyan”) is subject to the requirements of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (together, the “Advisers Act”), including examination by the SEC’s staff. Such requirements relate to, among other things, fiduciary duties to clients, performance fees, maintaining an effective compliance program, solicitation arrangements, conflicts of interest, advertising, limitations on agency and principal transactions between the advisor and advisory clients, recordkeeping and reporting requirements, disclosure requirements, and general anti-fraud provisions. The SEC is authorized to institute proceedings and impose sanctions for violations of the Advisers Act, ranging from fines and censure to termination of an investment advisor’s registration. Investment advisors also are subject to certain state securities laws and regulations. Failure to comply with the Advisers Act or other federal and state securities laws and regulations could result in investigations, sanctions, profit disgorgement, fines or other similar consequences against us.
Volcker Rule. Provisions of the Volcker Rule and the final rules implementing the Volcker Rule also restrict certain activities provided by the our broker-dealers, including proprietary trading and sponsoring or investing in “covered funds.”
Our broker-dealers are broker-dealers registered with the SEC, FINRA, all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. Much of the regulation of broker-dealers, however, has been delegated to self-regulatory organizations, principally FINRA, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board and national securities exchanges. These self-regulatory organizations adopt rules (which are subject to approval by the SEC) for governing its members and the industry. Broker-dealers are also subject to federal securities laws and SEC rules, as well as the laws and rules of the states in which a broker-dealer conducts business. Our broker-dealers are members of, and are primarily subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by FINRA.
The regulations to which broker-dealers are subject cover all aspects of the securities business, including, but not limited to, sales and trade practices, net capital requirements, record keeping and reporting procedures, relationships and conflicts with customers, the handling of cash and margin accounts, experience and training requirements for certain employees, the conduct of investment banking and research activities and the conduct of registered persons, directors, officers and employees. Broker-dealers are also subject to the privacy and anti-money laundering laws and regulations discussed herein. Additional legislation, changes in rules promulgated by the SEC, securities exchanges, or self-regulatory organizations or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules often directly affect the method of operation and profitability of broker-dealers. The SEC, securities exchanges, self-regulatory organizations and states may conduct administrative and enforcement proceedings that can result in censure, fine, suspension or expulsion of broker-dealers, their registered persons, officers or employees. The principal purpose of regulation and discipline of broker-dealers is the protection of customers and the securities markets rather than protection of creditors and stockholders of broker-dealers.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Risks Relating to Our Industry
Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our performance.
Our results of operations depend to a great extent on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest rates earned on interest-earning assets such as loans and leases and investment securities, and the interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. We are exposed to interest rate risk because our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do not react uniformly or concurrently to changes in interest rates, as the two have different time periods for adjustment and can be tied to different measures of rates. Interest rates are sensitive to factors that are beyond our control, including general economic conditions and the policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies, including the FRB. The monetary policies of the FRB, implemented through open market operations and regulation of the discount rate and reserve requirements, affect prevailing interest rates. Loan and lease originations and repayment rates tend to increase with declining interest rates and decrease with rising interest rates. On the deposit side, increasing interest rates generally lead to interest rate increases on our deposit accounts. PreviouslyIn the monetary policy of the FRB has been to reduce market interest rates to historical lows, but recentlypast few years prevailing interest rates have beguncontinued to increase, andhowever the financial markets are anticipating a further increaseFRB recently cut rates in interest rates by the FRB.July 2019. We manage the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities; howeverliabilities. However a decrease in interest rates could cause borrowers to refinance higher rate loans at lower rates and under those circumstances, we would not be able to reinvest those prepayments in assets earning interest rates as high as the rates on those prepaid loans. Meanwhile, large, and relativelyunanticipated, or rapid increase in market interest rates would likely have an adverse impact on our net interest income and a decrease in our refinancing business and related fee income, and could cause an increase in delinquencies and non-performing loans and leases in our adjustable-rate loans. In addition, changes in interest ratesrate volatility can affect the value of our loans and leases, investments and other interest-rate sensitive assets and our ability to realize gains on the sale or resolution of these assets.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage our interest rate risk.
A significant economic downturn could result in increases in our level of non-performing loans and leases and/or reduce demand for our products and services, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our business and results of operations are affected by the financial markets and general economic conditions, including factors such as the level and volatility of interest rates, inflation, home prices, unemployment and under-employment levels, bankruptcies, household income and consumer spending. While the national economy and most regions have improved since the financial crisis of 2008 and subsequent economic recession, we continue to operate in a challenging andan uncertain economic environment.environment due to a variety of reasons, including but not limited to trade wars, geopolitical tensions, concerns about stability of the European Union (“EU”), including Britain’s anticipated exit from the EU, volatile oil prices and emerging market crises. The risks associated with our business become more acute in periods of a slowing economy or slow growth. A return or continuation of recessionary conditions or negative events in the housing markets, including significant and continuing home price declines and increased delinquencies and foreclosures, would adversely affect our mortgage and construction loans and result in increased asset write-downs. In addition, poor economic conditions, including continued high unemployment in the United States, have contributed to increased volatility in the financial and capital markets and diminished expectations for the U.S. economy. While we are continuing to take steps to decrease and limit our exposure to problem loans, we nonetheless retain direct exposure to the residential and commercial real estate markets. Declines in real estate values, an economic downturn or continued highan increase in unemployment levels may result in higher than expected loan and lease delinquencies and a decline in demand for our products and services. These negative events may cause us to incur losses and may adversely affect our capital, financial condition and results of operations.
The soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us.
Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty and other relationships. We have exposure to many different counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and dealers, other commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds, and other financial institutions. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, could lead to market-wide liquidity problems and losses or defaults by us or by other institutions and organizations. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be liquidated or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the financial instrument exposure due to us. There is no assurance that any such losses would not materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
Changes in laws, regulation or oversight or increased enforcement activities by regulatory agencies may increase our costs and adversely affect our business and operations.
We operate in a highly regulated industry and are subject to oversight, regulation and examination by federal and/or state governmental authorities under various laws, regulations and policies, which impose requirements or restrictions on our operations, capitalization, payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions, investments, loans and interest rates charged and interest rates paid on deposits. We must also comply with federal anti-money laundering, bank secrecy, tax withholding and reporting, and various consumer protection statutes and regulations. A considerable amount of management time and resources is devoted to oversight of, and development and implementation of controls and procedures relating to, compliance with these laws, regulations and policies.
The laws, regulation and supervisory policies applicable to us are subject to regular modification and change. New or amended laws, rules and regulations could impact our operations, increase our capital requirements or substantially restrict our growth and adversely affect our ability to operate profitably by making compliance much more difficult or expensive, restricting our ability to originate or sell loans, or further restricting the amount of interest or other charges or fees earned on loans or other products. In addition, further regulation could increase the assessment rate we are required to pay to the FDIC, adversely affecting our earnings. Furthermore, recent changes to Regulation Z promulgated by the CFPB may make it more difficult for us to underwrite consumer mortgages and compete with large national mortgage service providers. It is very difficult to predict future changes in regulation or the competitive impact that any such changes would have on our business. The Dodd-Frank Act, enacted in 2010, instituted major changes to the banking and financial institutions regulatory regimes. Other changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations, or policies, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways including subjecting us to additional costs, limiting the types of financial services and products we may offer, and increasing the ability of non-banks to offer competing financial services and products.
In addition, the federal Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act, and similar laws and regulations require financial institutions, among other duties, to institute and maintain effective anti-money laundering programs and to file suspicious activity and currency transaction reports as appropriate. FinCEN is authorized to impose significant civil money penalties for violations of those requirements and has engaged in coordinated enforcement efforts with the individual federal banking regulators, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration and IRS. There is also increased scrutiny of compliance with the rules enforced by the OFAC. Federal and state bank regulators also have focused on compliance with Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering regulations. If our policies, procedures and systems are deemed deficient, we would be subject to liability, including fines and regulatory actions such as restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and the necessity to obtain regulatory approval to proceed with acquisitions and other strategic transactions, which would negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Failure to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could also have serious adverse reputational consequences for us.
Our failure to comply with current, or adapt to new or changing, laws, regulations or policies could result in enforcement actions and sanctions against us by regulatory agencies, civil money penalties and/or reputationalreputation damage, along with corrective action plans required by regulatory agencies, any of which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and the value of our common stock.
Our recent acquisitions of broker-dealer and investment advisory businesses subjects us to new regulatory risks.
In early 2019, we acquired COR Clearing, a correspondent clearing firm for broker-dealers, and the WiseBanyan entities, an introducing broker and a registered investment adviser. The correspondent clearing firm and introducing broker are broker-dealers registered with the SEC and members of FINRA and various other self-regulatory organizations, which subjects us for the first time to regulation by the SEC and FINRA, and potential new risks and uncertainties relating to compliance and potential violations of laws, rules and regulations. Such violations could result in censure, penalties and fines, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, the restriction, suspension, or expulsion from the securities industry of the company or its officers or employees, or
other similar adverse consequences, any of which could cause us to incur losses and adversely affect our capital, financial condition and results of operations. See “Business-Regulation--Regulation of Broker-Dealer and Investment Advisory Businesses.”
Recent changes to our size and structure will subject us to additional regulation, increased supervision and increased costs.
In August 2018, the Company became a savings and loan holding company that is treated as a financial holding company by the Federal Reserve Board. As such, the Company is required to act as a financial “source of strength” for the Bank. The term “source of financial strength” is defined in the relevant statute as the ability of a company to provide financial assistance to such insured depository institution in the event of the financial distress of such insured depository institution. Given the power provided to the federal banking agencies in this provision, it is possible that the Company could be required to serve as a source of financial strength for the Bank when we might not otherwise voluntarily choose to do so. In such event, if the Company did not hold or was unable to raise necessary capital, we could become subject to negative or burdensome regulatory conditions that could negatively impact our growth, financial condition and results of operations.
The Dodd-Frank Act imposes additional regulatory requirements on financial institutions with $10 billion or more in total assets. The Company has grown to hold total assets in excess of $10 billion beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2019. As a result, we are now subject to the following additional requirements:
supervision, examination and enforcement by the CFPB with respect to consumer financial protection laws;
a modified methodology for calculating FDIC insurance assessments and potentially higher assessment rates as a result of institutions with $10 billion or more in assets being required to bear a greater portion of the cost of raising the reserve ratio to 1.35% as required by the Dodd-Frank Act;
heightened compliance standards under the Volcker Rule; and
enhanced supervision as a larger financial institution.
The imposition of these regulatory requirements and increased supervision may require additional commitment of financial resources to regulatory compliance and may increase our cost of operations.
In addition, under the Durbin Amendment to the Dodd-Frank Act, institutions with $10 billion or more in assets are subject to a cap on the interchange fees that may be charged in certain electronic debit and prepaid card transactions. The maximum permissible interchange fee for electronic debit transactions is the sum of 21 cents per transaction and five basis points multiplied by the value of the transaction. In addition, an issuer may charge up to one cent on each transaction as a fraud prevention adjustment if the issuer meets certain fraud prevention standards. Assuming the Company exceeds $10 billion in assets on December 31, 2019, the Durbin amendment will reduce the amount of interchange fees that we can charge and could adversely affect our fee-sharing prepaid card partnerships, such as with H&R Block starting in July 2020.
Policies and regulations enacted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau may negatively impact our residential mortgage loan business and compliance risk.
Our consumer business, including our mortgage and deposit businesses, may be adversely affected by the policies enacted or regulations adopted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”)CFPB which under the Dodd-Frank Act has broad rulemakingrule-making authority over consumer financial products and services. The CFPB is in the process of reshaping consumer financial protection laws through rulemakingrule-making and enforcement against unfair, deceptive and abusive acts or practices. The CFPB has broad rulemakingrule-making authority to administer and carry out the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to financial institutions that offer covered financial products and services to consumers. The CFPB has also been directed to write rules identifying practices or acts that are unfair, deceptive or abusive in connection with any transaction with a consumer for a consumer financial product or service, or the offering of a consumer financial product or service. The prohibition on “abusive” acts or practices is being clarified each year by CFPB enforcement actions and opinions from courts and administrative proceedings. The CFPB has issuedIn January 2014, a series of final rules issued by the CFPB to implement provisions in the Dodd-Frank Act related to mortgage origination and servicing that maywent into effect and caused an increase in the cost of originating and servicing residential mortgage loans, which went into effect in January 2014.loans. While it is difficult to quantify the increaseany future increases in our regulatory compliance burden, the costs associated with regulatory compliance, including the need to hire additional compliance personnel, may continue to increase.
Changes in United States trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs, may adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
In the past two years there has been substantial debate and controversy concerning changes to United States trade policies, legislation, treaties and tariffs, including trade policies and tariffs affecting other countries, including China, the European Union, Canada and Mexico and retaliatory tariffs by such countries. Tariffs and retaliatory tariffs have been imposed have been imposed by the United States and other countries, and additional tariffs and retaliation tariffs have been proposed. If
prices of consumer goods or key industrial products increase materially as a result of tariffs, the ability of individual households to service debt may be negatively impacted. This could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Replacement of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate may have an impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), a regulator of financial services firms in the United Kingdom, announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. The FCA and the submitting LIBOR banks have indicated they will support the LIBOR indices through 2021 to allow for an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate. In the United States, efforts to identify a set of alternative U.S. dollar reference interest rates include proposals by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board. Other financial services regulators and industry groups are evaluating the possible phase-out of LIBOR and the development of alternate reference rate indices or reference rates. Many of our assets and liabilities are indexed to LIBOR. We are evaluating the potential impact of the possible replacement of the LIBOR benchmark interest rate, but are not able to predict whether LIBOR will cease to be available after 2021, whether the alternative rates the Federal Reserve Board proposes to publish will become market benchmarks in place of LIBOR, or what the impact of such a transition will have on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.The market transition away from LIBOR to an alternative reference rate is complex and could have a range of adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In particular any such transition could:
adversely affect the interest rates paid or received on, the revenue and expenses associate with, and the value of our floating-rate obligations, loans, deposits, derivatives, and other financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates, or other securities or financial arrangements given LIBOR’s role in determining market interest rates globally;
prompt inquiries or other actions from regulators in respect of our preparation and readiness for the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate;
result in disputes, litigation or other actions with counterparties regarding the interpretation and enforceability of certain fallback language in LIBOR-based securities; and
require the transition to or development of appropriate systems and analytics to effectively transition our risk management processes from LIBOR-based products to those based on the applicable alternative pricing benchmark.
Risks Relating to Mortgage Loans and Mortgage-Backed Securities
Declining real estate values, particularly in California, could reduce the value of our loan and lease portfolio and impair our profitability and financial condition.
The majority of the loans in our portfolio are secured by real estate. At June 30, 2016,2019, approximately 68.0%72.2% of our mortgage portfolio was secured by real estate located in California. In recent years, there has been significant volatility in real estate values in California and in some cases the collateral for our real estate loans has become less valuable. If real estate values decrease or more of our borrowers experience financial difficulties, we will experience increased charge-offs, as the proceeds resulting from foreclosure may be significantly lower than the amounts outstanding on such loans. In addition, declining real estate values frequently accompany periods of economic downturn or recession and increasing unemployment, all of which can lead to lower demand for mortgage loans of the types we originate. A decline of real estate values or decline of the credit position of our borrowers in California would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Many of our mortgage loans are unseasoned and defaults on such loans would harm our business.
At June 30, 2016,2019, our multifamily residential loans were $1,373.2$1,948.5 million or 27.0%29.7% of our mortgage loans and our commercial real estate loans were $121.7$326.2 million, or 2.4%5.0% of our mortgage loans. The payment on such loans is typically dependent on the cash flows generated by the projects, which are affected by the supply and demand for multifamily residential units and commercial property within the relative market. If the market for multifamily residential units and commercial property experiences a decline in demand, multifamily and commercial borrowers may suffer losses on their projects and be unable to repay their loans. If residential housing values were to decline and nationwide unemployment were to increase, we are likely to experience increases in the level of our non-performing loans and foreclosed and repossessed vehicles in future periods.
We could recognize other-than-temporary impairment on securities held in our available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios, if economic and market conditions worsen.portfolio.
Our held-to-maturity securities had gross unrecognized losses of $10.0 million at June 30, 2016. We analyze securities held in our portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. The process for determining whether impairment is other-than-temporary requirescan involve difficult, subjective judgments about the future financial performance of the issuer, market conditions, and the value of any collateral underlying the security in order to assess the probability of receiving all contractual principal and interest payments on the security. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers and the performance of the underlying collateral, we may be required to recognize other-than-temporary impairment in future periods reducing future earnings.earnings and capital levels.
A decrease in the mortgage buying activity of Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae or a failure by Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae and Freddie Mac to satisfy their obligations with respect to their RMBS could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
During the last three fiscal years we have sold over $1,131.2approximatly $1,321.7 million of residential mortgage loans to Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae and, as of June 30, 2016,2019, approximately 14.6%4.2% of our securities portfolio consisted of RMBS issued or guaranteed by these GSEs. Since 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have been in conservatorship, with its primary regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, acting as conservator. The United States government is contemplatingmay enact structural changes to one or more of the GSEs, including privatization, consolidation and/or a reduction in the ability of GSEs to purchase mortgage loans or guarantee mortgage obligations. We cannot predict if, when or how the conservatorships will end, or what associated changes (if any) may be made to the structure, mandate or overall business practices of either of the GSEs. Accordingly, there continues to be uncertainty regarding the future of the GSEs, including whether they will continue to exist in their current form and whether they will continue to meet their obligations with respect to their RMBS. A substantial reduction in mortgage purchasing activity by the GSEs could result in a material decrease in the availability of residential mortgage loans and the number of qualified borrowers, which in turn may lead to increased volatility in the residential housing market, including a decrease in demand for residential housing and a corresponding drop in the value of real property that secures current residential mortgage loans, as well as a significant increase in interest rates. In a rising or higher interest rate environment, our originations of mortgage loans may decrease, which would result in a decrease in mortgage loan revenues and a corresponding decrease in non-interest income. Any decision to change the structure, mandate or overall business practices of the GSEs and/or the relationship among the GSEs, the government and the private mortgage loan markets, or any failure by the GSEs to satisfy their obligations with respect to their RMBS, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Tax Reform Act of 2017 resulted in certain changes that may affect our business.
The Tax Reform Act of 2017, enacted in December 2017, reduced the ceiling on the mortgage interest deduction from $1,000,000 to $750,000 for indebtedness incurred in acquiring, constructing, or improving a residence. For mortgage indebtedness incurred before December 15, 2017, the Tax Reform Act permits homeowners to maintain the current $1,000,000 ceiling. The Tax Reform Act also prohibits the deduction of interest on home equity indebtedness, and limits annual itemized deductions for state and local taxes (including state and local income, property, and sales taxes) to $10,000. The Bank originates and holds a large amount of mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities. The reduction or elimination of these tax benefits and other changes in federal income tax policies could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Bank’s loan products and the pricing and liquidity of the mortgage securities which the Bank holds. The reduction in the mortgage interest deduction and limitation of itemized deductions for property taxes, particularly in higher priced states in which we operate, such as California, could adversely affect the ability of some potential borrowers to obtain credit, otherwise reduce the demand for home purchases and construction, and increase delinquencies or defaults on our mortgage assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Risks Relating to the Company
If our allowance for loan and lease losses, particularly in growing areas of lending such as commercial and industrial (“C&I”) is not sufficient to cover actual loan and lease losses, our earnings, capital adequacy and overall financial condition may suffer materially.
Our loans are generally secured by single family, multifamily and commercial real estate properties, each initially having a fair market value generally greater than the amount of the loan secured. Although our loans and leases are typically secured, the risk of default, generally due to a borrower’s inability to make scheduled payments on his or her loan, is an inherent risk of the banking business. In determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses, we make various assumptions and judgments about the collectibilitycollectability of our loan and lease portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers, the value of the real estate serving as collateral for the repayment of our loans and our loss history. Defaults by borrowers could result in losses that exceed our loan and lease loss reserves. We have originated or purchased many of our loans and leases recently, so we do not have sufficient repayment experience to be certain whether the established allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate. We may have to establish a larger allowance for loan and lease losses in the future if, in our judgment, it becomes necessary. Any increase in our allowance for loan and lease losses willwould increase our expenses and consequently may adversely affect our profitability, capital adequacy and overall financial condition.
In addition, we continue to increase our emphasis on non-residential lending, particularly in C&I lending, and these types of loans and leases are expected to comprise a larger portion of our originations and loan and lease portfolio in future periods. To the extent that we fail to adequately address the risks associated with C&I lending, we may experience increases in levels of non-performing loans and leases and be forced to take additional loan and lease loss reserves, which would adversely affect our net
interest income and capital levels and reduce our profitability. For further information about our C&I lending business, please refer to “Business – Asset Origination and Fee Income Businesses – Commercial Real Estate Secured and Commercial Lending.”
Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies.
The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations. Such methods, estimates, and judgments, include methodologies to value our securities, evaluate securities for other-than-temporary impairment and estimate our allowance for loan and lease losses. These methods, estimates, and judgments are, by their nature, subject to substantial risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, and factors may arise over time that lead us to change our methods, estimates, and judgments. Changes in those methods, estimates, and judgments could significantly affect our results of operations. These changes can be hard to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. As an example, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued accounting guidance, effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, related to the impairment of financial instruments, particularly the allowance for loan losses. This guidance changes existing impairment recognition to a model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses, which is intended to result in more timely recognition of credit losses. When adopted, this new standard may increase our allowance for credit losses, which could materially affect our financial condition and future results of operations. The extent of the increase, if any, will ultimately depend upon the nature and characteristics of our loan portfolio at the adoption date, as well as the macroeconomic assumptions and forecasts used at that date. Therefore, the potential financial impact is currently unknown.
Changes in the value of goodwill and other intangible assets could reduce our earnings.
The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which, in general, requires that goodwill not be amortized, but rather that it be tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level using the two step approach. Testing for impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets is performed annually and involves the identification of reporting units and the estimation of fair values. The estimation of fair values involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity in the assumptions used. Changes in the local and national economy, the federal and state legislative and regulatory environments for financial institutions, the stock market, interest rates and other external factors (such as natural disasters or significant world events) may occur from time to time, often with great unpredictability, and may materially impact the fair value of publicly traded financial institutions and could result in an impairment charge at a future date.
Our risk management processes and procedures may not be effective in mitigating our risks.
We have established processes and procedures intended to identify, measure, monitor and control material risks to which we are subject, including, for example, credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, strategic risk and operational risk. If the models that we use to manage these risks are ineffective at predicting future losses or are otherwise inadequate, we may failincur unexpected losses or otherwise be adversely affected. In addition, the information we use in managing our credit and other risk may be inaccurate or incomplete as a result of error or fraud, both of which may be difficult to realize anydetect and avoid. There may also be risks that exist, or that develop in the future, benefitsthat we have not appropriately anticipated, identified or mitigated, including when processes are changed or new products and services are introduced. If our risk management framework does not effectively identify and control our risks, we could suffer unexpected losses or be adversely affected, and that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition
Our acquisition of a broker-dealer business subject us to a variety of risks associated with the securities industry.
On January 28, 2019, we acquired COR Clearing, a leading full-service correspondent clearing firm for independent broker-dealers. In addition, in February 2019 we acquired an introducing broker as part of our relationship with H&R Block, Inc.
On August 31, 2015, we acquired approximately $419 million in deposits from H&R Block Bankacquisition of the WiseBanyan entities. Our acquisition of these broker-dealer firms and its parent company, H&R Block, Inc. (“H&R Block”),entry into this business subjects us to a number of risks and entered into a Program Management Agreement (“PMA”) andchallenges, including risks related agreements under which we agreed to provide H&R Block-branded financial services products and services. The success of our relationship with H&R Block depends upon, among other things, our ability to operateintegrate the PMAacquired operations and H&R Block’s desirethe associated internal controls and regulatory functions into our current operations, our ability to offerretain key personnel of the acquired operations, our ability to limit the outflow of acquired deposits and successfully retain and manage acquired assets, our ability to retain existing correspondents who may choose to perform their own clearing services, move their clearing business to one of our competitors or exit the business, our ability to attract new customers and generate new assets in areas not previously served, and the possible assumption of risks and liabilities related to litigation or regulatory proceedings involving the acquired operations.
In addition, entry into the broker-dealer business may subject us to new risks related to the movement of equity prices. For example, if securities prices decline rapidly the value of our collateral could fall below the amount of the indebtedness secured by these securities, and in rapidly appreciating markets, credit risk may increase due to short positions. The securities lending and securities trading and execution businesses also subject us to credit risk if a counterparty fails to perform or if collateral
securing its obligations is insufficient. In securities transactions generally, we will be subject to credit risk during the period between the execution of a trade and the settlement by the customer. Significant failures by our customers, including correspondents, or clients to honor their obligations, or increases in their rates of default, together with insufficient collateral and reserves, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial services productscondition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, in March 2019, we suffered a $15.3 million bad debt expense due to customers aftera default by a correspondent customer arising from unauthorized securities trades by an employee of the closing date. customer.
Our objectives with regardbroker-dealer business also subjects us to managingnew risks and uncertainties that are common in the securities industry, including intense competition, extensive governmental regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission and FINRA and potentially new areas and types of litigation including lawsuits based on allegations concerning our obligations under the PMAcorrespondents. The SEC, FINRA and other SROs and state securities commissions, among other regulatory bodies, can censure, fine, issue cease-and-desist orders or suspend or expel a broker-dealer or any of its officers or employees. Clearing securities firms are subject to riskssubstantially more regulatory control and examination than introducing brokers that operationalrely on others to perform clearing functions. Similarly, the attorneys general of each state could bring legal action to ensure compliance with state securities laws, and regulatory agencies in foreign countries have similar authority. Our ability to comply with multiple laws and regulations pertaining to the securities industry depends in large part on our ability to establish and maintain an effective compliance function. The failure to establish and enforce reasonable compliance procedures, may change. Undereven if unintentional, could subject us to significant losses or disciplinary or other actions.
Our broker-dealer business is also subject to the termsnet capital requirements of the PMA thereSEC, FINRA and various self-regulatory organizations. These requirements typically specify the minimum level of net capital a broker-dealer must maintain and also mandate that a significant part of its assets be kept in relatively liquid form. Failure to maintain the required net capital may subject a firm to limitation of its activities, including suspension or revocation of its registration by the SEC and suspension or expulsion by FINRA and other regulatory bodies, and ultimately may require its liquidation.
Our entry into the investment advisory business subjects us to a variety of risks associated with investment performance and advisory services.
On February 26, 2019, we acquired WiseBanyan, Inc., a registered investment adviser (“RIA”) that provides personal financial and investment management services through a proprietary technology platform. Our investment advisory business is registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). Federally registered investment advisers are no minimum transaction levelsregulated and subject to examination by the SEC. The Advisers Act imposes numerous obligations on RIAs, including fiduciary duties, disclosure obligations, recordkeeping and reporting requirements, marketing restrictions and general anti-fraud prohibitions. Our failure to comply with the Advisers Act and associated rules and regulations of the SEC could subject us to enforcement proceedings and sanctions for violations, including censure or termination of SEC registration, litigation and reputational harm. In addition, our investment advisory business is subject to notice filings and the anti-fraud rules of state securities regulators.
Our investment advisory business is also subject to various data privacy and cybersecurity laws designed to protect client and employee personally identifiable information. These laws and regulations are increasing in complexity and number which has resulted in greater compliance risk and cost for the business. The unauthorized access, use, theft or destruction of client or employee personal, financial or other data could expose us to potential financial penalties and legal liability.
Additionally, poor investment returns and declines in client assets in our investment advisory business, due to either general market conditions or under-performance (relative to our competitors or to benchmarks) by investment products, may affect our ability to retain existing assets, prevent clients from transferring their assets out of products or their accounts, or inhibit our ability to attract new clients or additional assets from existing clients. Any such poor performance could adversely affect our investment advisory business and the advisory fees that we earn on client assets.
Our acquisitions involve integration and other risks.
In addition to the acquisitions discussed above, from time to time we undertake acquisitions of assets, deposits, lines of business and other companies consistent with our operating and growth strategies. Acquisitions generally involve a number of transactionsrisks and challenges, including our ability to integrate the acquired operations and the associated internal controls and regulatory functions into our current operations, our ability to retain key personnel of the acquired operations, our ability to limit the outflow of acquired deposits and successfully retain and manage acquired assets, our ability to attract new customers and generate new assets in areas not previously served, and the possible assumption of risks and liabilities related to litigation or regulatory proceedings involving the acquired operations. Additionally, no assurance can be given that are processed maythe operation of acquisitions would not adversely affect our existing profitability, that we would be more or less than expected due to business changes by H&R Block, regulatory changes or changes due to competition for H&R Block’s products. If we are not able to successfully achieve our objectives or if H&R Block limits, eliminates or fails to realize the expected volumes for one or more of the financial services products describedresults in the PMA,future similar to those achieved by the futureacquired operations, that we would be able to compete effectively in the markets served by the acquired operations, or that we would be
able to manage any growth resulting from the transaction effectively. We also face the risk that the anticipated benefits of our relationship with H&R Blockany acquisition may not be realized fully or at all.all, or within the time period expected.
In addition, the relationship with H&R Block requires substantial resources and effort from our management. The maintenance of integrated processes and other disruptions resulting from the relationship may disrupt our ongoing businesses or cause inconsistencies in our standards, controls, procedures or policies. In addition, difficulties in maintaining the integrated functions could harm our reputation with customers. For further information about the transaction with H&R Block, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –H&R Block Bank Deposit Acquisition.”
As a public company, we face the risk of shareholder lawsuits and other related or unrelated litigation, particularly if we experience declines in the price of our common stock. We have been named as a party to purported class action and derivative lawsuits, and we may be named in additional litigation, all of which could require significant management time and attention and result in significant legal expenses.
As described in detail below in “Item 3 – Legal Proceedings,” putative class action lawsuits have been filed in the United States District Court, Southern District of California, alleging, among other things, that our Company, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer violated the federal securities laws by failing to disclose the wrongful conduct that is alleged by a former employee in a complaint, and that as a result the Company’s statements regarding its internal controls, and portions of its financial statements, were false and misleading. Derivative lawsuits have also been filed against our management arising from the same events, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, mismanagement, abuse of control and unjust enrichment. Regardless of the merits, the expense of defending such litigation may have a substantial impact if our insurance carriers fail to cover the full cost of the litigation, and the time required to defend the actions could divert management’s attention from the day-to-day operations of our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. An unfavorable outcome in such litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The Company and its management deny any wrongdoing and are vigorously defending the referenced lawsuits.
We may seek additional capital but it may not be available when it is needed and limit our ability to execute our strategic plan. In addition, raising additional equity capital would dilute existing shareholders’ equity interests and may cause our stock price to decline.
We are required by regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support our operations. In addition, we may elect to raise additional capital to support the growth of our business or to finance acquisitions, if any, or we may elect to raise additional capital for other reasons. We may seek to do so through the issuance of, among other things, our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock, which could dilute existing shareholders’ interests in the Company.
Our ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, many of which are outside our control, and on our financial performance. Accordingly, we cannot provide assurance on our ability to raise additional capital if needed or if it can be raised on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed or on terms acceptable to us, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, raising equity capital will have a dilutive effect on the equity interests of our existing shareholders and may cause our stock price to decline.
Access to adequate funding cannot be assured.
We have significant sources of liquidity as a result of our federal thrift structure, including consumer deposits, brokered deposits, the FHLB, repurchase lending facilities, and the FRB discount window. We rely primarily upon consumer deposits and FHLB advances. Our ability to attract deposits could be negatively impacted by a public perception of our financial prospects or by increased deposit rates available at troubled institutions suffering from shortfalls in liquidity. The FHLB is subject to regulation and other factors beyond our control. These factors may adversely affect the availability and pricing of advances to members such as the Bank. Selected sources of liquidity may become unavailable to the Bank if it were to no longer be considered “well-capitalized.”
Our inability to manage our growth or deploy assets profitably could harm our business and decrease our overall profitability, which may cause our stock price to decline.
Our assets and deposit base have grown substantially in recent years, and we anticipate that we will continue to grow over time, perhaps significantly. To manage the expected growth of our operations and personnel, we will be required to manage multiple aspects of the business simultaneously, including among other things: (i) improve existing and implement new transaction processing, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls; (ii) maintain effective credit scoring and underwriting guidelines; (iii) maintain sufficient levels of regulatory capital; and (iv) expand our employee base and train and manage this growing employee base. In addition, acquiring other banks, asset pools or deposits may involve risks such as exposure to potential asset quality issues, disruption to our normal business activities and diversion of management’s time and attention due to integration and conversion efforts. If we are unable to manage growth effectively or execute integration efforts properly, we may not be able to achieve the anticipated benefits of growth and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, we may not be able to sustain past levels of profitability as we grow, and our past levels of profitability should not be considered a guarantee or indicator of future success. If we are not able to maintain our levels of profitability by deploying growth in our deposits in profitable assets or investments, our net interest margin and overall level of profitability will decrease and our stock price may decline.
We face strong competition for customers and may not succeed in implementing our business strategy.
Our business strategy depends on our ability to remain competitive. There is strong competition for customers from existing banks and other types of financial institutions, including those that use the Internet as a medium for banking transactions or as an advertising platform. Technology has also lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for non-banks offer products and services traditionally provided by banks. Our competitors include large, publicly-traded, Internet-based banks, as well as smaller Internet-based banks; “brick and mortar” banks, including those that have implemented websites to facilitate online banking; and traditional banking institutions such as thrifts, finance companies, credit unions and mortgage banks. Some of these competitors have been in business for a long time and have broader name recognition and ana more established customer base. Most of our competitors are larger and have greater financial and personnel resources. In order to compete profitably, we may need to reduce the rates we offer on loans and leases and investments and increase the rates we offer on deposits, which actions may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
To remain competitive, we believe we must successfully implement our business strategy. Our success depends on, among other things:
Having a large and increasing number of customers who use our bank for their banking needs;
Our ability to attract, hire and retain key personnel as our business grows;
Our ability to secure additional capital as needed;
The relevance of our products and services to customer needs and demands and the rate at which we and our competitors introduce or modify new products and services;
Our ability to offer products and services with fewer employees than competitors;
The satisfaction of our customers with our customer service;
Ease of use of our websites;websites and smartphone applications;
Our ability to provide a secure and stable technology platform for financial services that provides us with reliable and effective operational, financial and information systems.systems; and
Integration of our broker-dealer and registered investment-advisory businesses.
If we are unable to implement our business strategy, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our business depends on a strong brand, and failing to maintain and enhance our brand wouldcould hurt our ability to maintain or expand our customer base.
The brand identities that we have developed will significantly contribute to the success of our business. On October 1, 2018, we changed the name of the Bank and the branding of most of our banking products to “Axos Bank”. Maintaining and enhancing the “BofI Federal“Axos Bank” brands (including our other trade styles and trade names such as apartmentbank.com)names) is critical to expanding our customer base. We believe that the importance of brand recognition will increase due to the relatively low barriers to entry for our “brick and mortar” competitors in the internet-based banking market. Our brands could be negatively impacted by a number of factors, including data privacy and security issues, service outages, and product malfunctions. If our name change is not widely accepted by customers or proves to be less popular than anticipated, if we fail to maintain and enhance our “BofI Federal Bank” brands generally, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort,these efforts, our business, financial condition and results of operations willmay be materially adversely affected. MaintainingIn addition, maintaining and enhancing our brand will depend largely on our ability to continue to provide high-quality products and services, which we may not do successfully.
Our reputation and business could be damaged by negative publicity.
Reputational risk, including as a result of negative publicity, is inherent in our business. Negative publicity can result from actual or alleged conduct in a number of areas, including legal and regulatory compliance, lending practices, corporate governance, litigation, inadequate protection of customer data, illegal or unauthorized acts taken by third parties that supply products or services to us, and ethical behavior of our employees. Damage to our reputation could adversely impact our ability to attract new, and maintain existing, loan and deposit customers, employees and business relationships, and, particularly with respect to our broker-dealer and registered investment advisor businesses, could result in the imposition of new regulatory requirements, operational restrictions, enhanced supervision and/or civil money penalties. Such damage could also adversely
affect our ability to raise additional capital. Any such damage to our reputation could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
A natural disaster, especially in California, could harm our business.
We areOur Bank’s based in San Diego, California, and approximately 68.0%72.2% of our mortgage loan portfolio was secured by real estate located in California at June 30, 2016.2019. In addition, some of our computer systems that operate our internet websites and their back-up systems are located in San Diego, California. Historically, California has been vulnerable to natural disasters. Therefore, we are susceptible to the risks of natural disasters, such as earthquakes, wildfires, floods and mudslides. Natural disasters could harm our operations directly through interference with communications, including the interruption or loss of our websites, which would prevent us from gathering deposits, originating loans and leases and processing and controlling our flow of business, as well as through the destruction of facilities and our operational, financial and management information systems. A natural disaster or recurring power outages may also impair the value of our largest class of assets, our loan and lease portfolio, which is comprised substantially of real estate loans. Uninsured or under-insured disasters may reduce borrowers’ ability to repay mortgage loans. Disasters may also reduce the value of the real estate securing our loans, impairing our ability to recover on defaulted loans through foreclosure and making it more likely that we would suffer losses on defaulted loans. Although we have implemented several back-up systems and protections (and maintain standard business interruption insurance), these measures may not protect us fully from the effects of a natural disaster. The occurrence of natural disasters in California could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Our success depends in large part on the continuing efforts of a few individuals. If we are unable to retain these key personnel or attract, hire and retain others to oversee and manage our company, our business could suffer.
Our success depends substantially on the skill and abilities of our senior management team, including our Chief Executive Officer and President, Gregory Garrabrants, our Chief Financial Officer, Andrew J. Micheletti, and other employees that perform multiple functions that might otherwise be performed by separate individuals at larger banks. The loss of the services of any of these individuals or other key employees, whether through termination of employment, disability or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, our ability to grow and manage our growth depends on our ability to continue to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate highly skilled executive, technical, managerial, sales, marketing, customer service and professional personnel. The implementation of our business plan and our future success will depend on such qualified personnel. Competition for such employees is intense, and there is a risk that we will not be able to successfully attract, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel. If we fail to attract and retain the necessary personnel, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We are exposed to risk of environmental liability with respect to properties to which we take title.
In the course of our business, we may foreclose and take title to real estate, including commercial real estate, and could be subject to environmental liabilities with respect to those properties. We may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties in connection with environmental contamination or may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at a property. The costs associated with investigation or remediation activities could be substantial. In addition, if we are the owner or former owner of a contaminated site, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property. If we become subject to significant environmental liabilities, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Technology Risks in our Online Business
We depend on third-party service providers for our core banking technology, and interruptions in or terminations of their services could materially impair the quality of our services.
We rely substantially upon third-party service providers for our core banking technology and to protect us from bank system failures or disruptions. This reliance may mean that we will not be able to resolve operational problems internally or on a timely basis, which could lead to customer dissatisfaction or long-term disruption of our operations. Our operations also depend upon our ability to replace a third-party service provider if it experiences difficulties that interrupt operations or if an essential third-party service terminates. If these service arrangements are terminated for any reason without an immediately available substitute arrangement, our operations may be severely interrupted or delayed. If such interruption or delay were to continue for a substantial period of time, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Privacy concerns relating to our technology could damage our reputation and deter current and potential customers from using our products and services.
Generally speaking, concerns have been expressed about whether internet-based products and services compromise the privacy of users and others. Concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure or security of personal information of our customers or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and results of operations. While we strive to comply with all applicable data protection laws and regulations, as well as our own posted privacy policies, any failure or perceived failure to comply may result in proceedings or actions against us by government entities or others, or could cause us to lose customers, which could potentially have an adverse effect on our business.
Misconduct by employees could also result in fraudulent, improper or unauthorized activities on behalf of clients or improper use of confidential personal information. The Company may not be able to prevent employee errors or misconduct, and the precautions the Company takes to detect this type of activity might not be effective in all cases. Employee errors or misconduct could subject the Company to civil claims for negligence or regulatory enforcement actions, including fines and restrictions on our business.
In addition, as nearly all of our products and services are internet-based, the amount of data we store for our customers on our servers (including personal information) has been increasing and will continue to increase. Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the release of our customers’ data could seriously limit the adoption of our products and services, as well as harm our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business. We may also need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches. System enhancements and updates may also create risks associated with implementing new systems and integrating them with existing ones. Due to the complexity and interconnectedness of information technology systems, the process of enhancing our layers of defense can itself create a risk of systems disruptions and security issues. In addition, addressing certain information security vulnerabilities, such as hardware-based vulnerabilities, may affect the performance of our information technology systems. The ability of our hardware and software providers to deliver patches and updates to mitigate vulnerabilities in a timely manner can introduce additional risks, particularly when a vulnerability is being actively exploited by threat actors.
The risk that these types of events could seriously harm our business is likely to increase as we add more customers and expand the number of internet-based products and services we offer.
We have risks of systems failure and security risks, including “hacking” and “identity theft.”disruptions to operations.
The computer systems and network infrastructure utilized by us and others could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. This is true of both our internally developed systems and the systems of our third-party service providers. Our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect computer equipment against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunication failure or similar catastrophic events.
Any damage or failure that causes an interruption in our operations or security breaches such as hacking or identity theft could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
If our security measures are breached, or if our services are subject to attacks that degrade or deny the ability of customers to access our products and services, our products and services may be perceived as not being secure, customers may curtail or stop using our products and services, and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure.
Our products and services involve the storage and transmission of customers’ proprietary information, and security breaches could expose us to a risk of loss of this information, litigation, and potential liability. Our security measures may be breached due to the actions of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, nation-states, activists and other outside parties, employee error, failure to follow security procedures, malfeasance, or otherwise and, as a result, an unauthorized party may obtain access to our data or our customers’ data. In addition, to access our products and services, our customers use personal computers, smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices that are beyond our control environment. Additionally, outside parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or customers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our customers’ data. Other types of attacks may include computer viruses, malicious or destructive code, denial-of-service attacks, ransomware or ransom demands to not expose security vulnerabilities in the Company’s systems or the systems of third parties. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services that could potentially have an adverse effect on our business. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of our security occurs, including hacking or identity theft, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed and, as a result, we could lose customers, suffer employee productivity losses, incur technology replacement and incident response costs, be subject to additional regulatory scrutiny, could subject us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business depends on continued and unimpeded access to the internet by us and our customers. Internet access providers may be able to block, degrade, or charge for access to our website, which could lead to additional expenses and the loss of customers.
Our products and services depend on the ability of our customers to access the internet and our website. Currently, this access is provided by companies that have significant market power in the broadband and internet access marketplace, including incumbent telephone companies, cable companies and mobile communications companies. Some of these providers have the ability to take measures that could degrade, disrupt, or increase the cost of customer access to our products and services by restricting or prohibiting the use of their infrastructure to access our website or by charging fees to us or our customers to provide access to our website. Such interference could result in a loss of existing customers and/or increased costs and could impair our ability to attract new customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Litigation.On October 15, 2015, the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer were named defendants in a putative class action lawsuit styled Golden v. BofI Holding, Inc., et al,, and brought in United States District Court for the Southern District of California (the “Golden Case”). On November 3, 2015, the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer were named defendants in a second putative class action lawsuit styled Hazan v. BofI Holding, Inc., et
al,, and also brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California (the “Hazan Case”). On February 1, 2016, the Golden Case and the Hazan Case were consolidated as In re BofI Holding, Inc. Securities Litigation,, Case #: 3:15-cv-02324-GPC-KSC (the “Class Action”), and the Houston Municipal Employees Pension System was appointed lead plaintiff. The Class Action complaint was amended by a certain Consolidated Amended Class Complaint filed on April 11, 2016. The Class Action plaintiff seeks monetary damagesplaintiffs allege that the Company and other relief on behalf of a putative class that has not been certified by the Court.
The complaints filed in the Golden Case and the Hazan Case both allege that thenamed defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by failing to disclose the wrongful conduct that iswas alleged in a complaint that was filed in connection with a wrongful termination of employment lawsuit filed on October 13, 2015 (the “Employment Matter”), and that as a result the Company’s statements regarding its internal controls, as well as portions of its financial statements, were false and misleading. On March 21, 2018, the Court entered a final order dismissing the Class Action with prejudice. Subsequently, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal and opening brief and the Company has filed its answering brief.
On April 3, 2017, the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer were named defendants in a putative class action lawsuit styled Mandalevy v. BofI Holding, Inc., et al, and brought in United States District Court for the Southern District of California (the “Mandalevy Case”).

The holders of record of our Series A preferred stock, which was issued in 2003 and 2004, are entitled to receive annual dividends at the rate of six percent (6%) of the stated value per share, which stated value is $10,000 per share. Dividends on the Series A preferred stock accrue and are payable quarterly. Dividends on the preferred stock must be paid prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any distribution on any outstanding shares of junior stock, including our common stock.
Other than dividends to be paid on our preferred stock, we currently intend to retain any earnings to finance the growth and development of our business. Our board of directors has never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and does not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Our ability to pay dividends, should our board of directors elect to do so, depends largely upon the ability of the Bank to declare and pay dividends to us. Future dividends will depend primarily upon our earnings, financial condition and need for funds, as well as government policies and regulations applicable to us and our bank that limit the amount that may be paid as dividends without prior approval.

Adjusted earnings, previously referred to as “core earnings,” for the fiscal years ended 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $118.9 million, $82.9 million, and $56.9 million, respectively.

The first product is Emerald Prepaid MasterCard® services, which is under Schedule A of the PMA. Our Bank is responsiblereceived cash for the primary oversight and controldeposit balances transferred less a premium of the prepaid card programs of a wholly owned subsidiary of H&R Block. Under the PMA and related Agreements, our Bank holds the prepaid card customer deposits for those cards issued under the prepaid programs$13.5 million, recorded in non-interest bearing accounts and earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block’s subsidiary for each automated clearing house (“ACH”) transaction processed through the prepaid card customer accounts. A portion of H&R Block’s customers use the Emerald Card as an option to receive federal and state income tax refunds. The prepaid customer deposits are included in non-interest bearing deposit liabilities on our balance sheet and the ACH fee income is included in our income statement under the line banking service fees and other income.
The second product is Refund Transfer, which is under Schedule B of the PMA. Our Bank is responsible for the primary oversight and control of the refund transfer program of a wholly owned subsidiary of H&R Block. Under the PMA and related Agreements, our Bank opens a temporary bank account for each H&R Block customer who is receiving an income tax refund and elects to defer payment of his or her tax preparations fees. After the Internal Revenue Service and any state income tax authorities transfer the refund into the customer’s account, the net funds are transferred to the customer and the temporary deposit account is closed. Our Bank earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block for each of the H&R Block customers electing a Refund Transfer. The fees are earned primarily in the quarter ended March 31st and are included in our income statement under the line banking service fees and other income.
The third product is Emerald Advance, which is under Schedule C of the PMA. Our Bank is responsible for the underwriting guidelines and credit policies for unsecured consumer lines of credit offered to H&R Block customers. Under the PMA and related Agreements, our Bank offers and funds unsecured lines of credit to consumers primarily through the H&R Block tax preparation offices and earns interest income and fee income. Our Bank retains 10% of the Emerald Advance and sells the remainder to H&R Block. The lines of credit are included in loans and leases on our balance sheet and the interest income and fee income are included in our income statement under the line loans and leases interest and dividend income.
The H&R Block-branded financial services products introduce seasonality into the unaudited condensed consolidated quarterly income statements through the banking and service fees category of non-interest income and the other general and administrative category of non-interest expense,intangibles, commensurate with the peak income and expense in these categories typically occurring during our third fiscal quarter ended March 31.
Pacific Western Equipment Finance Asset Acquisition
On March 31, 2016, the Bank entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Pacific Western Bank to acquire approximately $140 million of equipment leases from Pacific Western Equipment Finance and assumed certain insignificant operations and related liabilities. The purchase price and total consideration paid for the assets consisted of the fair market value of the assumed liabilities plus a leasedeposits purchased.
Bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary services business of Epiq Systems, Inc. On April 4, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of the bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary services business of Epiq Systems, Inc. (“Epiq”). The assets acquired by the Company include comprehensive software solutions, trustee customer relationships, trade name, accounts receivable and fixed assets. The business provides specialized software and consulting services to Chapter 7 bankruptcy and non-Chapter 7 trustees and fiduciaries in all fifty states. This business is expected to generate fee income from bank partners and bankruptcy cases, as well as opportunities to source low cost deposits. No deposits were acquired as part of the transaction.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the aggregate purchase price premiumincluded the payment of approximately 2.5%.$70.0 million in cash. The Company acquired assets with approximate fair values of $32.7 million of intangible assets, including customer relationships, developed technologies, a covenant not to compete and the trade name, and $1.6 million of accounts receivable and fixed assets, resulting in $35.7 million of goodwill. Transaction-related expenses were de minimis.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various factors and circumstances. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.
Securities. Currently, weWe classify securities as either trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are those securities for which we have elected fair value accounting. Trading securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period. Securities available-for-sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effects, excluded from operations and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The fair values of securities traded in active markets are obtained from market quotes. If quoted prices in active markets are not available, we determine the fair values by utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities. For securities other than non-agency RMBS, we use observable market participant inputs and categorize these securities as Level II in determining fair value. For non-agency RMBS securities, we use a level III fair value model approach. To determine the performance of the underlying mortgage loan pools, we consider where appropriate borrower prepayments, defaults, and loss severities based on a number of macroeconomic factors, including housing price changes, unemployment rates, interest rates and borrower attributes such as credit score and loan documentation at the time of origination. We input for each security our projections of monthly default rates, loss severity rates and voluntary prepayment rates for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows. The projections of default rates are derived by the Company from the historic default rate observed in the pool of loans collateralizing the security, increased by (or decreased by) the forecasted increase or decrease in the national unemployment rate as well as the forecasted increase or decrease in the national home price appreciation (HPA) index. The projections of loss severity rates are derived by the Company from the historic loss severity rate observed in the pool of loans, increased by (or decreased by) the forecasted decrease or increase in the HPA index. To determine the discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for these non-agency RMBS securities, we separate the securities by the borrower characteristics in the underlying pool. For example, non-agency RMBS “Prime” securities generally have borrowers with higher FICO scores and better documentation of income. “Alt-A” securities generally have borrowers with lower FICO and less documentation of income. “Pay-option ARMs” are Alt-A securities with borrowers that tend to pay the least amount of principal (or increase their loan balance through negative amortization). Separate discount rates are calculated for Prime, Alt-A and Pay-option ARM non-agency RMBS securities using market-participant assumptions for risk, capital and return on equity.
Securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and recorded at amortized cost. Amortization of purchase premiums and accretion of discounts on securities are recorded as yield adjustments on such securities using the effective interest method. The specific identification method is used for purposes of determining cost in computing realized gains and losses on investment securities sold.
At each reporting date, we monitor our available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company measures its debt securities in an unrealized loss position at the end of the reporting period for other-than-temporary impairment by comparing the present value of the cash flows currently expected to be collected from the security with its amortized cost basis. If the calculated present value is lower than the amortized cost, the difference is the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of its debt securities. The excess of the present value over the fair value of the security (if any) is the noncredit component of the impairment, only if the Company does not intend to sell the security and will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The credit component of the other-than-temporary-impairment is recorded as a loss in earnings and the noncredit component is recorded as a charge to other comprehensive income, net of the related income tax benefit.
For non-agency RMBS we determine the cash flow expected to be collected and calculate the present value for purposes of testing for other-than-temporary impairment, by utilizing the same industry-standard tool and the same cash flows as those calculated for fair values (discussed above). We compute cash flows based upon the underlying mortgage loan pools and our estimates of prepayments, defaults, and loss severities. We input our projections for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows. The discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for purposes of testing for the credit component of the other-than-temporary impairment are different from those used to calculate fair value and are either the implicit rate calculated in each of our securities at acquisition or the last accounting yield (ASC Topic 325-40-35). We calculate the implicit rate at acquisition based on the contractual terms of the security, considering scheduled payments (and minimum payments in the case of pay-option ARMs) without prepayment assumptions. We use this discount rate in the industry-standard model to calculate the present value of the cash flows for purposes of measuring the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of our debt securities.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level estimated to provide for probable incurred losses in the loan and lease portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based
on reviews of individual loans and leases and pools of loans, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan and lease losses, which is reduced by charge-offs and recoveries of loans previously charged-off. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, may be uncollectible or impaired.
The allowance for loan and lease losslosses includes specificgeneral reserves and generalmay include specific reserves. Specific reserves aremay be provided for impaired loans. All other impaired loans are written down through charge-offs to their realizable value and no specific or general reserve is provided. A loan is measured for impairment generally two different ways. If the loan is primarily dependent upon the borrowersborrower’s ability to make payments, then impairment is calculated by comparing the present value of the expected future payments discounted at the effective loan rate to the carrying value of the loan. If the loan is collateral dependent, the net proceeds from the sale of the collateral is compared to the carrying value of the loan. If the calculated amount is less than the carrying value of the loan, the loan has impairment.
A general reserve is included in the allowance for loan and lease losslosses and is determined by adding the results of a quantitative and a qualitative analysis to all other loans not measured for impairment at the reporting date. The quantitative analysis determines the Bank’s actual annual historic charge-off rates and applies the average historic rates to the outstanding loan balances in each loan class. The qualitative analysis considers one or more of the following factors: changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in economic conditions, changes in the content of the portfolio, changes in lending management, changes in the volume of delinquency rates, changes to the scope of the loan review system, changes in the underlying collateral of the loans, changes in credit concentrations and any changes in the requirements to the credit loss calculations. A loss rate is estimated and applied to those loans affected by the qualitative factors. The following portfolio segments have been identified: single family secured mortgage, home equity secured mortgage, single family warehouse and other, multifamily secured mortgage, commercial real estate mortgage, recreational vehicles and auto secured, factoring, C&I and other.
Business Combinations. Mergers and acquisitions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations” using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets and liabilities acquired and assumed are generally recorded at their fair values as of the date of the transaction. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Significant estimates and judgments are involved in the fair valuation and purchase price allocation process.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets that have finite lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives and subject to periodic impairment testing. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are amortized to expense using accelerated or straight-line methods over their respective estimated useful lives.
Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which is conducted at least annually. The Company performs impairment testing during the third quarter of each year or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired. Based on the results, the Company determined that the estimated fair value exceeded its carrying value and concluded that the goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets were fully recognized.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as non-GAAP securities adjusted earnings. Non-GAAP securities adjusted earnings, exclude realizedadjusted earnings per common share, and unrealized gains and losses associated with our securities portfolios, net of tax. Excluding these gains and losses provides investors with an understanding of the Bank’s core lending and mortgage banking business performance.tangible book value per common share. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their use of such measures. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considerconsidered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
We define net income without the after-tax impact of non-recurring acquisition-related costs, and excess FDIC expense, and other costs (unusual or non-recurring charges), (“adjusted earnings”), a non-GAAP financial measure. Excess FDIC expense is defined as the higher insurance costs associated with increased levels of short-term brokered deposits in anticipation of the acquisition of deposits from Nationwide Bank. Other costs are due to a $15.3 million bad debt expense related to a correspondent customer of our clearing broker-dealer. Adjusted earnings per diluted common share (“adjusted EPS”), a non-GAAP financial
measure, is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted earnings by the average number of diluted common shares outstanding during the period. We believe the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS provide useful information about the Bank’s operating performance. Excluding the non-recurring acquisition related costs, excessive FDIC expense, and other costs provides investors with an understanding of Axos’ core business.

We define book value adjusted for goodwill and other intangible assets as tangible book value (“tangible book value”), a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible book value is calculated using common stockholders’ equity minus mortgage servicing rights, goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated by dividing tangible book value by the common shares outstanding at the end of the period. We believe tangible book value per common share is useful in evaluating the Company’s capital strength, financial condition, and ability to manage potential losses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our results of operations depend on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Our net interest income has increased as a result of the growth in our interest earning assets and is subject to competitive factors in the branchlessonline banking market.and other markets. Our net interest income is reduced by our estimate of loss provisions for our loan and lease portfolio. We also earn non-interest income primarily from mortgage banking activities, banking products and service activity, our Securities Business, prepaid card fee income, prepayment fee income from multifamily borrowers who repay their loans before maturity and from gains on sales of other loans and investment securities. Losses on investment securities reduce non-interest income. The largest component of non-interest expense is salary and benefits, which is a function of the number of personnel, which increased from 467801 full time employees at June 30, 20152018 to 6471007 full-time equivalent employees at June 30, 2016.2019. We are subject to federal and state income taxes, and our effective tax rates were 41.78%27.10%, 41.30%36.42% and 40.64%42.10% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016, 2015,2019, 2018, and 2014,2017, respectively. Other factors that affect our results of operations include expenses relating to professional services, occupancy, data processing, advertising, depreciation, occupancy, professional services, and other miscellaneous expenses.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income totaled $261.0$408.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20162019 compared to $198.9$368.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015.2018. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate); and (ii) effects on interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume); and (iii) changes in rate/volume (change in rate multiplied by. The change in volume):interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated proportionally to both, based on their relative absolute values.

Our relationship with H&R Block began in fiscal 2016 and introduced seasonality into banking and service fees category of non-interest income, with an increase during our second quarter and the peak income in this category typically occurring during our third fiscal quarter ended March 31. Therefore, banking and services fees for the three months ended March 31, are not indicative of results to be expected for other quarters during the fiscal year. Historically, the primary non-interest income generating H&R Block products and services that lead to the increased banking and service fees are Emerald Prepaid Mastercard® (“EPC”) and Refund Transfer (“RT”).
Non-interest income totaled $66.3$82.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20162019 compared to non-interest income of $30.6$70.9 million for fiscal 2015.2018. The increase was primarily the result of an increase of $29.3$11.7 million in broker-dealer fee income from our new securities segment, an increase of $6.1 million in banking and service fees due to trustee and fiduciary services, increased levels of prepayment penalty fee income of $2.0 million, an increase in realized gain on sale of securities of $0.7 million, a $0.4 million increase in gain on sale-other, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking income of $8.5 million, and an increase in net unrealized loss on securities of $0.7 million. Banking and service fees includes H&R Block-branded product fees, deposit fees, fee income from prepaid card sponsors, and certain C&I loan fees. The primary non-interest income-generating H&R Block products and services that led to the increased banking and service fees are EPC and RT. For the fiscal year ended June 30,
2019, EPC decreased $0.2 million to $7.8 million from $8.0 million for fiscal 2018. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, RT decreased $0.2 million to $12.3 million from $12.5 million for fiscal 2018.
Included in gain on sale – other are sales of unsecured and secured consumer and business loans originated through introductions from our third-party partner relationships, for example H&R Block-branded Emerald Advance, and sales of structured settlement annuity and state lottery receivables. We engage in the wholesale and retail purchase of state lottery prize and structured settlement annuity payments. These payments are high credit quality deferred payment receivables having a state lottery commission or investment grade (top two tiers) insurance company payor. The Bank originates contracts for the retail purchase of such payments and classifies these under the heading of Factoring in the loan portfolio. Factoring yields are typically higher than mortgage loan rates. Typically, the gain received upon sale of these payment streams is greater than the gain received from an equivalent amount of mortgage loan sales. Since 2013, pools of structured settlement receivables are originated for sale from time to time depending upon management’s assessment of interest rate risk, liquidity, and offers containing favorable terms and if originated for sale would be classified on our balance sheet as loans held for sale.

Non-interest expense totaled $251.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $77.3 million compared to fiscal 2018. Salaries and related costs increased $26.5 million, or 26.2%, in fiscal 2019 due to increased staffing levels to support growth in staffing for lending, information technology infrastructure development, regulatory compliance, trustee and fiduciary services and additions from our Securities Business. Our staff increased to 1007 from 801 or 25.72% between fiscal 2019 and 2018 and increased to 801 from 681 or 17.62% between fiscal 2018 and 2017.
Data processing and internet expense increased $6.8 million, primarily due to the additions from our Securities Business and enhancements to customer interfaces and the Bank’s core processing system.
Advertising and promotion expense decreased $0.8 million, primarily due to decreased mortgage lead generation and deposit marketing costs partially offset by increased rebranding costs.
Depreciation and amortization, increased $7.9 million primarily due to the amortization of intangibles from recent acquisitions, depreciation on lending and deposit platform enhancements and infrastructure development, and additions from our Securities Business.
Occupancy and equipment expense increased $2.5 million, in order to support increased deposit and loan production and additions from our Securities Business.
Professional services, which include accounting and legal fees, increased $6.6 million in fiscal 2019 compared to 2018. The increase in professional services was primarily due to increased compliance, audit, legal and consulting expenses, and additions from our Securities Business.
The change in our cost of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and OCC standard regulatory charges increased by $4.1 million in fiscal 2019 compared to fiscal 2018. As a result of the overall growth of the Bank’s average liabilities. As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premiums to the FDIC.
Broker-dealer clearing charges were $2.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. These expenses are related to the cost associated with introducing broker-dealer customer trades in our Securities Business.
General and administrative expenses increased by $20.2 million in fiscal 2019 compared to 2018. The increases were primarily due to a $15.3 million increase in our Securities Business bad debt reserve in order to cover potential losses resulting
from unauthorized securities trades at a correspondent customer, costs to support loan and deposit production and increased insurance costs.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $57.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 compared to $87.3 million for fiscal 2018. Our effective tax rates were 27.10% and 36.42% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
As a result of legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) that was enacted on December 22, 2017, during the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company revised its estimated annual effective rate to reflect a change in the federal statutory rate from 35.0% to 21.0%. The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code that affect the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, including reducing the U.S. federal corporate statutory tax rate to 21.0% beginning January 1, 2018, which results in a blended federal corporate statutory tax rate of 28.1% for the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 that is based on the applicable tax rates before and after the Tax Act and the number of days in the fiscal year.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company revalued the deferred tax balance to reflect the new corporate tax rate, which resulted in a decrease in net deferred tax assets of $9,189. As a result, income tax expense reported for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was adjusted to reflect the effects of the change in the tax law and the application of the newly enacted rates to existing deferred balances.
Additionally, the Company received tax credits for the year ended June 30, 2019, which reduced the effective tax rate by approximately 1.55% compared to June 30, 2018.
SEGMENT RESULTS
The Company determines reportable segments based on the services offered, the significance of the services offered, the significance of those services to the Company’s financial condition and operating results and management’s regular review of the operating results of those services. The Company operates through two operating segments: Banking Business and Securities Business. In order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, the Company includes parent-only activities and intercompany eliminations.

Banking Business
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, we had pre-tax income of $255.5 million compared to pre-tax income of $263.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the decrease in pre-tax income was primarily related to increased operating costs.
We consider the ratios shown in the table below to be key indicators of the performance of our Banking Business segment:
|
| | | | | |
| | Fiscal Year Ended |
| | June 30, 2019 | | June 30, 2018 |
| Efficiency ratio | 40.51 | % | | 34.55 | % |
| Return on average assets | 1.83 | % | | 1.82 | % |
| Interest rate spread | 3.72 | % | | 3.83 | % |
| Net interest margin | 4.14 | % | | 4.14 | % |
Our Banking segment’s net interest margin exceeds our consolidated net interest margin. Our consolidated net interest margin includes certain items that are not reflected in the calculation of our net interest margin within our Banking Business and reduce our consolidated net interest margin, such as the borrowing costs at our Holding Company and the yields and costs associated with certain items within interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in our Securities Business, including items related to securities financing operations that particularly decrease net interest margin.
The following table presents our Banking segment’s information regarding (i) average balances; (ii) the total amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the weighted average yields on such assets; (iii) the total amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the weighted average rates paid on such liabilities; (iv) net interest income; (v) interest rate spread; and (vi) net interest margin for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

The Banking segment’s net interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 totaled $404.5 million, an increase of 8.8%, compared to net interest income of $371.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The growth of net interest income is primarily due to increased average earnings assets from net loan and lease portfolio growth and increased average yields earned on interest-earning assets, partially offset by volume increases in time deposits and increased rates on interest bearing demand and savings deposits and FHLB advances.
The Banking segment’s non-interest income increased $0.1 million from $70.8 million to $70.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The increase in non-interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, was primarily the result of an increase of $4.6 million in banking and service fees primarily due to fee income from our trustee and fiduciary services, an increase of $2.0 million in prepayment penalty fee income, an increase in realized gain on sale of securities of $0.9 million, a $0.4 million increase in gain on sale-other, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking income of $7.2 million, and an increase in net unrealized loss on securities of $0.7 million. Banking and service fees includes H&R Block-branded product fees, deposit fees, fee income from prepaid card sponsors, and certain C&I loan fees. The primary non-interest income-generating H&R Block products and services that led to the increased banking and service fees are EPC and RT. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, EPC decreased $0.2 million to $7.8 million from $8.0 million for fiscal 2018. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, RT decreased $0.2 million to $12.3 million from $12.5 million for fiscal 2018.
Non-interest expense totaled $192.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $39.7 million compared to fiscal 2018. Salaries and related costs increased $14.8 million, or 18.2%, in fiscal 2019 due to increased staffing levels to support growth in staffing for lending, information technology infrastructure development, regulatory compliance, and the trustee and fiduciary services, a $6.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization for amortization of fiduciary services intangibles and systems enhancements, a $4.6 million increase in data processing and internet expense for loan and deposit systems enhancements, a $4.0 million increase in FDIC and OCC standard regulatory charges due to growth of the Bank’s average liabilities and an increase in short-term brokered deposits as we positioned the Bank for the acquisition of the Nationwide Bank deposits, a $3.8 million increase in other and general expense, a $3.4 million increase in professional services, and a $2.1 million increase in occupancy expense.

Interest Income. Interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 totaled $475.1 million, an increase of $87.8 million, or 22.7%, compared to $387.3 million in interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to growth in volume of interest-earning assets from loan originations, primarily from commercial & industrial lending as well as accretion from origination fees from Refund Advance loans. Fundings of Refund Advance loans increased from $0.3 billion to $1.1 billion for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2018, respectively. Average interest-earning assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 increased by $1,044.5 million compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to loan and lease originations for investment which increased $1,740.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2018. Yields on loans and leases increased by 40 basis points to 5.66% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to increased yields in the single family, commercial & industrial and H&R Block-branded loan products. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the growth in average balances contributed additional interest income of $52.2 million, which was supplemented by a $35.6 million increase in interest income due to the increase in average rate. The average yield earned on our interest-earning assets increased to 5.30% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, up from 4.89% for the same period in 2017 primarily due to the increase in rate from loans and leases. As a result of the Federal Reserve decisions to increase the Fed Funds rate over the last year we have marked up our adjustable loans and have increased the market rates on new loans. A contributing factor to the increase of loans and leases income is the amortization of origination fees for H&R Block-branded products.
Interest Expense. Interest expense totaled $106.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $32.5 million, or 43.9% compared to $74.1 million in interest expense during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to increased rates on deposits and advances, as a result of the Federal Reserve decisions to increase the Fed Funds rate over the last year. The average rate paid on all of our interest-bearing liabilities increased to 1.51% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 from 1.15% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to increased rates on deposits and advances from FHLB. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 increased $603.5 million compared to fiscal 2017. The average rate on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits increased to 1.15% from 0.75% due to increases in prevailing deposit rates across the industry. The rates on advances from the FHLB also increased to 1.76% from 1.55% due primarily to the Fed rate increases. The average rate on time deposits increased to 2.61% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 from 2.33% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, due to Fed rate increases. Average FHLB advances for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 increased $497.1 million, or 62.2% compared to fiscal 2017. The average non-interest-bearing demand deposits were $1,052.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, representing an increase of $278.5 million.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. Provision for loan and lease losses was $25.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 and $11.1 million for fiscal 2017. The increase in the loan and lease loss provision was primarily due to the increase
in Refund Advance loan fundings from $0.3 billion to $1.1 billion during fiscal 2017 and 2018, respectively, combined with overall loan portfolio growth. The provisions are made to maintain our allowance for loan and lease losses at levels which management believes to be adequate. The assessment of the adequacy of our allowance for loan and lease losses is based upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans, loss history and changes in the volume and mix of loans and collateral values.
See “Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” for discussion of our allowance for loan and lease losses and the related loss provisions.

Our relationship with H&R Block began in fiscal 2016 and introduced seasonality into banking and service fees category of non-interest income, with an increase during our second quarter and the peak income in this category typically occurring during our third fiscal quarter ended March 31. Therefore, banking and services fees for the three months ended March 31, are not indicative of results to be expected for other quarters during the fiscal year. Historically, the primary non-interest income generating H&R Block products and services that lead to the increased banking and service fees are Emerald Prepaid Mastercard® (“EPC”) and Refund Transfer (“RT”).
Non-interest income totaled $70.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 compared to non-interest income of $68.1 million for fiscal 2017. The increase was primarily the result of an increase of $5.7 million in banking and service fees due to H&R Block-branded products and service fee income, a $9.7$1.2 million increase in gain on sale-other primarily from sales of structured settlements and lottery receivables, and a decrease in net unrealized loss on securities of $1.8$1.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking income of $4.2 million, primarily due to a decreasedrealized gain onfrom sale of Agency mortgage originations and a decrease insecurities of $3.9 million, decreased levels of prepayment penalty fee income of $1.8$0.7 million, and a decrease in mortgage banking income of $0.5 million. Banking and service fees and other income includes H&R Block-branded product fees, deposit fees, and certain C&I loan fees as well as fee income from prepaid card sponsors.sponsors, and certain C&I loan fees. The primary non-interest income-generating H&R Block products and services that led to the increased banking and service fees are EPC and RT. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, EPC increased $0.2 million to $8.0 million from $7.8 million for fiscal 2017. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, RT decreased $0.3 million to $12.5 million from $12.8 million for fiscal 2017.
Included in gain on sale – other are sales of unsecured and secured consumer and business loans originated through introductions from our third-party partner relationships, for example H&R Block-branded Emerald Advance, and sales of structured settlement annuity and state lottery receivables. We engage in the wholesale and retail purchase of state lottery prize and structured settlement annuity payments. These payments are high credit quality deferred payment receivables having a state lottery commission or investment grade (top two tiers) insurance company payor. The Bank originates contracts for the retail purchase of such payments and classifies these under the heading of Factoring in the loan portfolio. Factoring yields are typically higher than mortgage loan rates. Typically, the gain received upon sale of these payment streams is greater than the gain received from an equivalent amount of mortgage loan sales. Since 2013, pools of structured settlement receivables have been originated for sale depending upon management’s assessment of interest rate risk, liquidity, and offers containing favorable terms and are classified on our balance sheet as loans held for sale. Increased originations and favorable terms during fiscal 2018 resulted in an increase in gain on sale from structured settlement annuity and state lottery receivables.

As a result of the adoption, the Company recorded $2.4 million of income tax benefits for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 totaled $244.4 million, an2018, respectively, related to excess tax benefits from stock compensation. Prior to 2018, such excess tax benefits were generally recorded directly in stockholders’ equity. This new accounting standard may potentially increase of $71.5 million, or 41.4%, compared to $172.9 million in interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to growth of interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 increased by $1,601.1 million compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to the origination of loans for investment, which increased $973.9 million during the year ended June 30, 2015 compared to 2014. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the growth in average balances contributed additional interest income of $78.7 million, which was partially offset by a net $5.7 million decrease in interest income due to the decrease in average rate. The average yield earned on our interest-earning assets decreased to 4.82% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, down from 4.98% for the same period in 2014.

Interest expense totaled $45.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $9.6 million, compared to $35.8 million in interest expense during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 increased $1,328.8 million compared to the same period in 2014, due primarily to increased demand and savings accounts and advances from the FHLB. The average interest-bearing balances of demand and savings increased $1,339.4 million and the average interest-bearing balances of advances from the FHLB increased $124.5 million. The average rate paid on all of our interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.03% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 from 1.17% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The maturity of higher-rate term deposits, the reductions in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and the addition of lower rate demand and savings deposits were the primary reasons for the decrease in average rate paid year over year. Additionally, during fiscal 2015, we increased our non-interest paying deposit accounts.
Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses was $11.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 and $5.4 million for fiscal 2014.

Non-interest income totaled $30.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 compared to non-interest income of $22.5 million for fiscal 2014. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in mortgage banking income of $5.1 million, a $2.3 million increase in banking service fees and a $2.0 million increase in prepayment penalty fee income all partially offset by a decrease of $0.9 million from other gains on sales and an increase of $0.8 million in securities losses. The increase in mortgage banking of $5.1 million income was primarily due to an increased volume of Agency mortgage originations resulting from declines in the 30-year mortgage rates and increased refinance activity.
Included in gain on sale – other are sales of structured settlement annuity receivables. We engage in the wholesale and retail purchase of state lottery prize and structured settlement annuity payments. These payments are high credit quality deferred payment receivables having a state lottery commission or investment grade (top two tiers) insurance company payor. The Bank originates contracts for the retail purchase of such payments and classifies these under the heading of Factoring in the loan portfolio. Factoring yields are typically higher than mortgage loan rates. Typically, the gain received upon sale of these payment streams is greater than the gain received from an equivalent amount of mortgage loan sales. Since 2013, pools of structured settlement receivables have been originated for sale depending upon management’s assessment of interest rate risk, liquidity, and offers containing favorable terms and are classified on our balance sheet as loans held for sale.

The $676,000$216,000 in non-performing other loans represents 17thirteen loans ranging in amount from $8,000$10,000 to $168,000$28,000 at June 30, 2016.2019, compared to $111,000 at June 30, 2018 which includes seven loans ranging in amount from $9,000 to $23,000.
We have experienced growth in our non-performing single family mortgage loans over the last five years; however, we believe that the write-downs taken as of June 30, 20162019 on these non-performing loans and the low average LTVs on the balance of our single family mortgage real estate loans in our portfolio make our future risk of loss better than other banks with significant exposure to real estate loans. If average nationwide residential housing values decline or if nationwide unemployment increases, we are likely to experience growth in the level of our non-performing loans and leases, foreclosed real estate and repossessed vehicles in future periods.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses in an amount that we believe is sufficient to provide adequate protection against probable incurred losses in our loan and lease portfolio. We evaluate quarterly the adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of individual loans and leases, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and leases and other pertinent factors. The evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan and lease losses, which is charged against current period operating results. The allowance is decreased by the amount of charge-offs of loans and leases deemed uncollectible and increased by recoveries of loans and leases previously charged off.
The allowance for loan and lease losses includes specificgeneral reserves and generalmay include specific reserves. Specific reserves aremay be provided for impaired loans considered TDRs. All other impaired loans and leases are written down through charge-offs to their realizable value and no specificvalue. A loan or general reserve is provided. A loanlease is measured for impairment generally two different ways. If the loan or lease is primarily dependent upon the borrower to make payments, then impairment is calculated by comparing the present value of the expected future payments discounted at the effective loaninterest rate to the carrying value of the loan.loan or lease. If the loan or lease is collateral dependent, the net proceeds from the sale of the collateral is compared to the carrying value of the loan.loan or lease. If the calculated amount is less than the carrying value of the loan or lease, the loan or lease has impairment.
A general reserve is included in the allowance for loan and lease losses and is determined by adding the results of a quantitative and a qualitative analysis to all other loans and leases not measured for impairment at the reporting date. The quantitative analysis determines the Bank’s actual annual historic charge-off rates and applies the average historic rates to the outstanding loan and lease balances in each pool, the product of which is the general reserve amount. The qualitative analysis considers one or more of the following factors: changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in economic conditions, changes in the content of the portfolio, changes in lending management, changes in the volume of delinquency rates, changes to the scope of the loan and lease review system, changes in the underlying collateral of the loans and leases, changes in credit concentrations and any changes in the requirements to the credit loss calculations. A loss rate is estimated and applied to those loans and leases affected by the qualitative factors.
The assessment of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is based upon a range of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans and leases, change in volume and mix of loans and leases, collateral values and charge-off history.
The Company provides general loan loss reserves for its RVauto and autoRV loans based upon the borrower credit score at the time of origination and the Company’s loss experience to date. The Company obtains updated credit scores for its auto and recreational vehicleRV borrowers approximately every six months. The updated credit score will result in a higher or lower general loan loss allowance depending on the change in borrowers’ FICO scores and the resulting shift in loan balances among the five FICO bands from which the Company measures and calculates its reserves. For the general loss reserve, the Company does not use individually updated credit scores or valuations for the real estate collateralizing its real estate loans, but does recalculate the LTV based upon principal payments made during each quarter.loans.
The allowance for loan and lease losses for the RVauto and autoRV loan portfolio at June 30, 20162019 was determined by classifying each outstanding loan according to the original FICO score and providing loss rates. The Company had $73,398$290,779 (dollars in thousands) of RVauto and autoRV loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: FICO greater than or equal to 770: $26,367;$129,836; 715 – 769: $26,731;$106,966; 700 – 714: $8,404;$29,491; 660 – 699: $9,887$22,169 and less than 660: $2,009.$2,317.
The Company provides general loan loss reserves for mortgage loans based upon the size and class of the mortgage loan and the loan-to-value ratio (“LTV”) at date of origination. The allowance for each class is determined by dividingstratifying the outstanding unpaid balance for each loan by the LTV and applying a loss rate. At June 30, 2016,2019, the LTV groupings for each significant mortgage class were as follows (dollars in thousands):
The Company had $3,649,910$4,232,817 of single family mortgage portfolio loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: LTV less than or equal to 60%: $1,934,078;$2,453,398; 61% – 70%: $1,364,246;$1,339,076; 71% – 80%: $351,384;$439,268; and greater than 80%: $202.$1,075.
The Company had $1,370,998$1,946,405 of multifamily mortgage portfolio loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: LTV less than or equal to 55%: $626,504;$999,879; 56% – 65%: $439,626;$613,655; 66% – 75%: $290,844;$322,364; 76% – 80%: $14,024$9,307 and greater than 80%: $0.$1,200. During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company divided the LTV analysis into two classes, separating the purchased loans from the loans underwritten directly by the Company.
Based on historical performance, the Company concluded that multifamily loans originated by the Bank require lower estimated loss rates than multifamily loans purchased. In fiscal years 2002 through 2004 the Company originated $137 million of primarily 30-year multifamily mortgage loans using the same basic underwriting criteria and accounting for 20%, 25% and 19% of the total average balance of the loan portfolio for fiscal year 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company intentionally slowed its multifamily and single family origination volume in 2005 through 2009 based upon the overall loosening of credit standards by competitors and the economic downturn. Since 2009, the economy has stabilized and competitive underwriting standards have strengthened allowing the Company to resume its originations. Since 2011,2014, our weighted average of multifamily loans is equal to 27.4%21.6% of the total loan portfolio. For these reasons, the Company believes that its historical underwriting experience originating multifamily loans allows the Company to use its historical loss rate as a reasonable indicator of risk. The historic loss or quantitative component of the Company’s general loan loss allowance is supplemented with a qualitative factor including a volume-based adjustment. At June 30, 20162019 and June 30, 2015,2018, all of the qualitative components of the general loan loss allowance for multifamily loans accounted for 97%100% and 74%100% of the total multifamily allowance, respectively.
The Bank originates and purchases mortgage loans with terms that may include repayments that are less than the repayments for fully amortizing loans, including interest only loans, option adjustable-rate mortgages, and other loan types that permit payments that may be smaller than interest accruals. The Bank’s lending guidelines for interest only loans are adjusted for the increased credit risk associated with these loans by requiring borrowers with such loans to borrow at LTVs that are lower than standard amortizing ARM loans and by calculating debt to income ratios for qualifying borrowers based upon a fully amortizing payment, not the interest only payment. The Company’s Credit Committee monitors and performs reviews of interest only loans. Adverse trends reflected in the Company’s delinquency statistics, grading and classification of interest only loans would be reported to management and the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2016,2019, the Company had $838.2 million$1.3 billion of interest only loans and $3.0$1.6 million of option ARM mortgage loans. Through June 30, 2016,2019, the net amount of deferred interest on these loan types was not material to the financial position or operating results of the Company.
The Company had $121,492$326,154 of commercial real estate loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: LTV less than or equal to 50%: $47,699;$168,706; 51% – 60%: $28,929;$75,861; 61% – 70%: $40,593;$59,442; 71% – 80%: $4,271$22,145 and greater than 80%: $0.
The Company’s commercial secured portfolio consists of business loans well-collateralized by real estate. The Company’s other portfolio consists of receivables factoring for businesses and consumers. The Company allocates its allowance for loan and lease losses for these asset types based on qualitative factors which consider the value of the collateral and the financial position of the issuer of the receivables.
We believe the weighted average LTV percentage at June 30, 20162019 of 57.24%55.50% for our entire real estate loan portfolio is lower and more conservative than most banks which has resulted, and is expected to continue to result in the future, in lower average mortgage loan charge-offs when compared to the real estate loan portfolios of other comparable banks.
Seasonal fluctuations in the Other loan classification and its associated allowance for loan and lease losses primarily relate to tax season H&R Block-related loan products. These products are generally short term in nature, in that they are intended to be repaid within a few weeks or months of origination; if they are not repaid timely, they are generally charged off in their entirety at 120 days delinquent, consistent with regulatory guidance for unsecured consumer loan products. The Company provides general loan loss reserves for its H&R Block-related loans based upon prior years’ loss experience with consideration for current year loan performance. The increase in provision for loan and lease losses in the Other loan classification from $17.1 million to $17.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 and 2019, the increase in charge-offs from $14.6 million to $16.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 and 2019 and the increase in allowance transfers to held-for-sale from $2.3 million to $2.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 and 2019 were primarily due to the increase in Refund Advance loan fundings from $1.1 billion to $1.2 billion during the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, respectively, as well as the Company’s continued funding of Emerald Advance loans. During fiscal 2019 the Company was the sole provider of the Refund Advance product. The increase in provision for loan and lease losses in the Other loan classification from $5.3 million to $17.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 and 2018, respectively, and the increase in charge-offs from $3.5 to $14.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 and 2018 were primarily due to the increase in Refund Advance loan fundings from $0.3 billion to $1.1 billion during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, respectively, as well as the Company’s continued funding of Emerald Advance loans. The increase in provision for loan and lease losses in the Other loan classification from $2.8 million to $5.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively, and the increase in charge-offs from $0 to $3.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 and 2017 were primarily due to the Company’s participation in the Refund Advance loan program during which $0.3 billion of loans were purchased during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, as well as its continued funding of Emerald Advance loans. There is no long-term impact on the loan and lease portfolio credit quality, because substantially all of the tax season H&R Block-related loan products are either collected, charged-off or sold by the end of the Company’s fiscal year. While they do incur higher proportional default and charge-off rates than the remainder of the Company’s loan and lease portfolio, these asset quality attributes are within expectations of the design of the products.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity. OurFor Axos Bank, our sources of liquidity include deposits, borrowings, payments and maturities of outstanding loans, sales of loans, maturities or gains on sales of investment securities and other short-term investments. While scheduled loan payments and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We generally invest excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets. We use cash generated through retail deposits, our largest funding source, to offset the cash utilized in lending and investing activities. Our short-term interest-earning investment securities are also used to provide liquidity for lending and other operational requirements. As an additional source of funds, we have two credit agreements. BofI FederalAxos Bank can borrow up to 40% of its total assets from the FHLB. Borrowings are collateralized by pledging certain mortgage loans and investment securities to the FHLB. Based on loans and securities pledged at June 30, 2016,2019, we had a total borrowing availability of approximately $1.3$2.0 billion and an additional $13.0 million available with additional collateral.immediately, which represents a fully collateralized position, for advances from the FHLB for terms up to ten years. The Bank can also borrow from the discount window at the FRB. FRB borrowings are collateralized by commercial loans, consumer loans and mortgage-backed securities pledged to the FRB. Based on loans and securities pledged at June 30, 2016,2019, we had a total borrowing capacity of approximately $42.2 million,$1.6 billion, all of which was available for use. At June 30, 2016,2019, we also had $35.0 million in unsecured fedfederal funds purchase lines of credit with two major banks under which there were no borrowings outstanding.
In the past, we have used long-term borrowings to fund our loans and to minimize our interest rate risk. Our future borrowings will depend on the growth of our lending operations and our exposure to interest rate risk. We expect to continue to use deposits and advances from the FHLB as the primary sources of funding our future asset growth.
Axos Clearing has a total of $155.0 million uncommitted secured lines of credit available for borrowing as needed. As of June 30, 2019, there was $106.8 million outstanding. These credit facilities bear interest at rates based on the Federal Funds rate and are due upon demand. The weighted average interest rate on the borrowings at June 30, 2019 was 3.84%.
OnAxos Clearing has a $35.0 million committed unsecured line of credit available for limited purpose borrowing. As of June 30, 2019, there was none outstanding. This credit facility bears interest at rates based on the Federal Funds rate and are due upon demand. The unsecured line of credit requires Axos Clearing operate in accordance with specific covenants surrounding capital and debt ratios. Axos Clearing was in compliance of all covenants as of June 30, 2019.
In December 16, 2004, we completed a transaction in which we formed a trust and issued $5.0 million of trust-preferred securities.

The debentures are the sole assets of the trust. The trust preferred securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. We have the right to redeem the debentures in whole (but not in part) on or after specific dates, at a redemption price specified in the indenture plus any accrued but unpaid interest through the redemption date. Interest accrues at the rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.4%, for a rate of 3.05%4.92% as of June 30, 2016,2019, with interest paid quarterly starting in February 2005. We entered into this transaction to provide additional regulatory capital to our bankBank to support its growth.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments. At June 30, 2016,2019, we had commitments to originate loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $337.5$752.8 million, commitments to sell loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance at the time of sale of $136.4$94.2 million, and no commitments to purchase loans, investment securities or any other unused lines of credit. See Item 3. Legal Proceedings for further information on pending litigation in which we are involved.
Contractual Obligations. The Company enters into contractual obligations in the normal course of business primarily as a source of funds for its asset growth and to meet required capital needs. Our time deposits due within one year of June 30, 20162019 totaled $497.8 million.$1.3 billion. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we may be required to seek other sources of funds, including other time deposits and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on deposits and borrowings than we currently pay on time deposits maturing within one year. We believe, however, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our time deposits will remain with us. We believe we have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting interest rates offered.

Capital Requirements. Our Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital adequacy requirements promulgated by federal bank regulatory agencies. Failure by our Company or Bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements for our Company and the OCC has similar requirements for our Bank. The following tables present regulatory capital information for our Company and Bank. Information presented for June 30, 2016,2019, reflects the Basel III capital requirements that became effective January 1, 2015 for both our Company and Bank. Under these capital requirements and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, our Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our Company and Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our Company’s and Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation require our Company and Bank to maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios. Federal bank regulators require our Company and Bank maintain minimum ratios of core capital to adjusted average assets of 4.0%, common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%, tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0% and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. To be “well capitalized,” our Company and Bank must maintain minimum leverage, common equity tier 1 risk-based, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0%, 6.5%, 8.0% and 10.0%, respectively. At June 30, 2016,2019, our Company and Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject to and were “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since June 30, 20162019 that would materially adversely change the Company’s and Bank’s capital classifications. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support our Company’s and Bank’s further growth and to maintain their “well capitalized” status.

Beginning January 1, 2016, Basel III implements a requirement for all banking organizations to maintain a capital conservation buffer above the minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid certain limitations on capital distributions, stock repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer will beis exclusively composed of common equity tier 1 capital, and it applies to each of the three risk-based capital ratios but not the leverage ratio. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Company and Bank are in compliance with the capital conservation buffer requirement, which will increaseincreases the three risk-based capital ratios by 0.625% each year through 2019, at which point, the common equity tier 1 risk based, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios will be 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively.

Under this rule, the Company has elected to operate under the alternate method and is required to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit balances arising from client transactions, as defined. On June 30, 2016,2019 Under the alternate method, the Company and Bankmay not repay subordinated debt, pay cash distributions, or make any unsecured advances or loans to its parent or employees if such payment would exceed theresult in net capital of less than 5% of aggregate debit balances or less than 120% of its minimum dollar requirement.
In connection with the approval of the acquisition of the H&R Block Bank deposits on September 1, 2015, the Bank executed a letter agreement with the OCC to maintain its Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at a minimum of 8.50% for the quarters ended in June, September and December and a minimum of 8.00% for the quarter ended in March, subject to certain adjustments.

At June 30, 2019, the Company had a deposit requirement of $198.3 million and maintained a deposit of $204.7 million.
Certain broker-dealers have chosen to maintain brokerage customer accounts at the Axos Clearing. To allow these broker-dealers to classify their assets held by the Company as allowable assets in their computation of net capital, the Company computes a separate reserve requirement for Proprietary Accounts of Brokers (PAB). At June 30, 2019, the Company had a deposit requirement of $3.4 million and maintained a deposit of $1.7 million. On July 1, 2019, Axos Clearing made a deposit to satisfy the deposit requirement.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is defined as the sensitivity of income and capital to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and other relevant market rates or prices. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in interest rates can have a variety of effects on our business. In particular, changes in interest rates affect our net interest income, net interest margin, net income, the value of our securities portfolio, the volume of loans originated, and the amount of gain or loss on the sale of our loans.
We are exposed to different types of interest rate risk. These risks include lag, repricing, basis, prepayment and lifetime cap risk, each of which is described in further detail below:
Lag/Repricing Risk. Lag risk results from the inherent timing difference between the repricing of our adjustable rate assets and our liabilities. Repricing risk is caused by the mismatch of repricing methods between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Lag/repricing risk can produce short-term volatility in our net interest income during periods of interest rate movements even though the effect of this lag generally balances out over time. One example of lag risk is the repricing of assets indexed to the monthly treasury average (“MTA”). The MTA index is based on a moving average of rates outstanding during the previous 12 months. A sharp movement in interest rates in a month will not be fully reflected in the index for 12 months resulting in a lag in the repricing of our loans and securities based on this index. We expect more of our interest-earning liabilities will mature or reprice within one year than will our interest-bearing assets, resulting in a one year negative interest rate sensitivity gap (the difference between our interest rate sensitive assets maturing or repricing within one year and our interest rate sensitive liabilities maturing or repricing within one year, expressed as a percentage of total interest-earning assets). In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would generally be expected, absent the effects of other factors, to experience a greater increase in its yield on assets relative to its cost on liabilities, and thus an increase in its net interest income.
Basis Risk. Basis risk occurs when assets and liabilities have similar repricing timing but repricing is based on different market interest rate indices. Our adjustable rate loans that reprice are directly tied to indices based upon U.S. Treasury rates, LIBOR, Eleventh District Cost of Funds and the Prime rate. Our deposit rates are not directly tied to these same indices. Therefore, if deposit interest rates rise faster than the adjustable rate loan indices and there are no other changes in our asset/liability mix, our net interest income will likely decline due to basis risk.
Prepayment Risk. Prepayment risk results from the right of customers to pay their loans prior to maturity. Generally, loan prepayments increase in falling interest rate environments and decrease in rising interest rate environments. In addition, prepayment risk results from the right of customers to withdraw their time deposits before maturity. Generally, early withdrawals of time deposits increase during rising interest rate environments and decrease in falling interest rate environments. When estimating the future performance of our assets and liabilities, we make assumptions as to when and how much of our loans and deposits will be prepaid. If the assumptions prove to be incorrect, the asset or liability may perform differently than expected. In the last three fiscal years, the Bank has experienced high rates of loan prepayments due to historically low interest rates and a low LTV loan portfolio.
Lifetime Cap Risk. Our adjustable rate loans have lifetime interest rate caps. In periods of rising interest rates, it is possible for the fully indexed interest rate (index rate plus the margin) to exceed the lifetime interest rate cap. This feature prevents the loan from repricing to a level that exceeds the cap’s specified interest rate, thus adversely affecting net interest income in periods of relatively high interest rates. On a weighted average basis, our adjustable rate loans at June 30, 20162019 had lifetime rate caps that were 503610 basis points greater than their current stated note rates. If market rates rise by more than the interest rate cap, we will not be able to increase these loan rates above the interest rate cap.
The principal objective of our asset/liability management is to manage the sensitivity of Market Value of Equity (“MVE”) to changing interest rates. Asset/liability management is governed by policies reviewed and approved annually by our board of directors. Our board of directors has delegated the responsibility to oversee the administration of these policies to the Bank’s asset/liability committee (“ALCO”). The interest rate risk strategy currently deployed by ALCO is to primarily use “natural” balance sheet hedging. ALCO makes precise adjustments to the overall MVE sensitivity by recommending investment and borrowing strategies. The management team then executes the recommended strategy by increasing or decreasing the duration of the investments and borrowings, resulting in the appropriate level of market risk the board wants to maintain. Other examples of ALCO policies designed to reduce our interest rate risk include limiting the premiums paid to purchase mortgage loans or mortgage-backed
securities. This policy addresses mortgage prepayment risk by capping the yield loss from an unexpected high level of mortgage loan prepayments. At least once a quarter, ALCO members report to our board of directors the status of our interest rate risk profile.
We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate sensitivity gap, provides an indication of the extent to which an institution’s interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.
In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would be in a better position than an institution with a negative gap to invest in higher yielding assets or to have its asset yields adjusted upward, which would result in the yield on its assets to increase at a faster pace than the cost of its interest-bearing liabilities.
During a period of falling interest rates, however, an institution with a positive gap would tend to have its assets mature at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which would tend to reduce the growth in its net interest income.

Although “gap” analysis is a useful measurement device available to management in determining the existence of interest rate exposure, its static focus as of a particular date makes it necessary to utilize other techniques in measuring exposure to changes in interest rates. For example, gap analysis is limited in its ability to predict trends in future earnings and makes no assumptions
about changes in prepayment tendencies, deposit or loan maturity preferences or repricing time lags that may occur in response to a change in the interest rate environment.

We attempt to measure the effect market interest rate changes will have on the net present value of assets and liabilities, which is defined as MVE. We analyze the MVE sensitivity to an immediate parallel and sustained shift in interest rates derived from the current treasuryU.S. Treasury and LIBOR yield curves. For rising interest rate scenarios, the base market interest rate forecast was increased by 100, 200 and 300 basis points. For the falling interest rate scenarios, we used a 100 basis points decrease due to limitations inherent in the current rate environment.

The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of interest rates, asset prepayments, runoffs in deposits and changes in repricing levels of deposits to general market rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Furthermore, these computationsthe results included in the tables above do not take into account any actions that we may undertake in response to future changes in interest rates. Those actions include, but are not limited to, making changes in loan and deposit interest rates and changes in our asset and liability mix.
Securities Business
Our securities business is exposed to market risk primarily due to its role as a financial intermediary in customer transactions, which may include purchases and sales of securities, securities lending activities, and in our trading activities, which are used to support sales, underwriting and other customer activities. We are subject to the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations in interest rates, market prices, investor expectations and changes in credit ratings of the issuer.
Our securities business is exposed to interest rate risk as a result of maintaining inventories of interest rate sensitive financial instruments and other interest earning assets including customer and correspondent margin loans and securities borrowing activities. Our exposure to interest rate risk is also from our funding sources including customer and correspondent cash balances, bank borrowings and securities lending activities. Interest rates on customer and correspondent balances and securities produce a positive spread with rates generally fluctuating in parallel.
With respect to securities held, our interest rate risk is managed by setting and monitoring limits on the size and duration of positions and on the length of time securities can be held. Much of the interest rates on customer and correspondent margin loans are indexed and can vary daily. Our funding sources are generally short term with interest rates that can vary daily.
At June 30, 2019, Axos Clearing held municipal obligations, these positions were classified as held for sale securities and had maturities greater than 10 years.
Our securities business is engaged in various brokerage and trading activities that expose us to credit risk arising from potential non-performance from counterparties, customers or issuers of securities. This risk is managed by setting and monitoring position limits for each counterparty, conducting periodic credit reviews of counterparties, reviewing concentrations of securities and conducting business through central clearing organizations.
Collateral underlying margin loans to customers and correspondents and with respect to securities lending activities is marked to market daily and additional collateral is required as necessary.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, under supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016,2019, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(1) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of; our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions of our assets;
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016.2019. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Control—Integrated Framework (2013 version). The Company has excluded the acquisitions of COR Clearing, Inc. and WiseBanyan, Inc. representing approximately: (i) less than 6% total assets; (ii) 2% of net interest income; (iii) 14% of non-interest income; and (iv) less than 1% of net income for the year ended June 30, 2019, from the scope of management’s report on internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 20162019 is effective.
BDO USA, LLP has audited the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016,2019, as stated in their report dated August 24, 2016.27, 2019.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the Company completed acquisitions of Axos Securities Business, which are being integrated into the Company’s operations. As part of the integration activities, management applied controls and procedures to the Axos Securities Business and enhanced Company-wide controls to reflect the risks inherent in the Axos Securities Business. There have beenwere no other changes in ourthe Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the the quarter ending ended June 30, 20162019 (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited BofI Holding,Axos Financial, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016,2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on the COSO criteria)criteria. BofI Holding, Inc.’s
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes and our report dated August 27, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Item 9A, Management’s Report on Internal Control Overover Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As indicated in the accompanying Item 9A, Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of the 2019 acquisitions, which are included in the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These acquisitions combined constituted approximately 5.75% of total assets as of June 30, 2019, and approximately 1.85% of revenues for the year then ended. Management did not assess the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting of the 2019 acquisitions because of the timing of these acquisitions. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Company also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of the 2019 acquisitions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, BofI Holding, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of BofI Holding, Inc. as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2016 and our report dated August 24, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Allowance for loan and lease losses
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company has a gross loan and lease portfolio of $9.4 billion and related allowance for loan and lease losses of $57.1 million as of June 30, 2019. The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is a material and complex estimate requiring significant management’s judgment in the evaluation of the credit quality and the estimation of inherent losses within the loan and lease portfolio. The allowance for loan and lease losses includes a general reserve which is determined based on the results of a quantitative and a qualitative analysis of all loans not measured for impairment at the reporting date.
In calculating the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company considers relevant credit quality indicators for each loan and lease segment, stratifies loans and leases by risk rating, and estimates losses for each loan and lease type based upon their nature and risk profile. This process requires significant management judgment in the review of the loan and lease portfolio and assignment of risk ratings based upon the characteristics of loans and leases. In addition, estimation of losses inherent within the portfolio requires significant management judgment, particularly where the Company has not incurred sufficient historical losses and has utilized observable peer data in forming its estimate. Auditing these complex judgments and assumptions involves especially challenging auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit evidence and effort required to address these matters, including
the extent of specialized skill or knowledge needed.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
Testing the design and operating effectiveness of controls relating to management’s review of loans and leases, assignment of risk ratings, consistency of application of accounting policies and appropriateness of utilization of observable peer data when there are limited incurred historical losses.
Evaluating the reasonableness of assumptions and sources of data used by management in forming the qualitative loss factors by performing retrospective review of historic loan and lease loss experience and analyzing historical data used in developing the assumptions, including assessment of whether there were additional qualitative considerations relevant to the portfolio.
Evaluating the appropriateness of inputs and factors that the Company used in forming the qualitative loss factors and assessing whether such inputs and factors were relevant, reliable, and reasonable for the purpose used.
Testing the appropriateness of the Company’s loan rating policy and the consistency of its application.
Testing the mathematical accuracy and computation of the allowance for loan and lease losses by re-performing or independently calculating significant elements of the allowance based on relevant source documents.
Accounting for Acquisitions
As described in Notes 2 and 9 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company had two significant acquisitions during the year ended June 30, 2019: (i) the acquisition of approximately $2.4 billion in deposits and a bank branch from Nationwide Bank, and (ii) the acquisition of Cor Securities Holdings, Inc. for a purchase price of approximately $88.4 million. As a result of these acquisitions, management was required to evaluate whether the assets and liabilities acquired constituted a business and determine estimated fair values of the assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
The Company’s determination of fair values of certain identifiable tangible and intangible assets and the determination of whether the acquired assets and liabilities constitute a business is complex and included the following areas of management’s judgments: (i) application of accounting guidance related to business combinations, (ii) significant unobservable inputs and assumptions utilized by management in determining the fair values of certain identifiable tangible and intangible assets, and (iii) changes in certain assumptions could have a significant impact on the fair values of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired. Auditing these elements involved especially challenging auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit effort required to address these matters, including the extent of specialized skill or knowledge needed.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
Assessing management’s application of accounting guidance related to business combinations and management’s determination of whether a transaction was an acquisition of a business as defined within the ASC 805 framework.
Assessing the reasonableness of significant underlying assumptions through (i) evaluating historical performance of the target entity, (ii) assessing performance against market trends, industry metrics, and guideline companies, and (iii) performing sensitivity analysis and evaluating potential effect of changes in certain assumptions.
Utilizing BDO valuation specialist to assist in assessing complex assumptions incorporated into the various valuation models, including performing sensitivity analysis around the discounted cash flow or net asset value assumptions and terminal value assumptions.

1- Common stock amounts have been retroactively restated for all prior periods presented to reflect the four-for-one forward split of the Company’s common stock effected in the form of a stock dividend that was distributed on November 17, 2015. The par value of common stock remains unchanged at $0.01 per share after the aforementioned forward stock split. As a result, the stated capital attributable to common stock increased proportionately and the additional paid-in capital decreased by the amount by which the stated capital increased.AXOS FINANCIAL, INC.

AXOS FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARYSUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 20162019, 20152018 AND 20142017
(Dollars in thousands, except per share and stated value amounts)
1. ORGANIZATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BofI Holding,Axos Financial, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, BofI Federalsubsidiaries, Axos Bank (collectively,(the “Bank”) and Axos Nevada Holding, LLC (the “Axos Nevada Holding” and collectively, the “Company”). Axos Nevada Holding wholly owns its subsidiary Axos Securities, LLC, which wholly owns subsidiaries Axos Clearing LLC (“Axos Clearing”), a clearing broker dealer, WiseBanyan, Inc., a registered investment advisor, and WiseBanyan Securities, LLC, an introducing broker dealer. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications were made to previously reported amounts in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto to make them consistent with the current period presentation.
BofI Holding,Axos Financial, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 6, 1999 for the purpose of organizing and launching an Internet-based savings bank. BofI FederalAxos Bank (the “Bank”), which opened for business over the Internet on July 4, 2000, is subject to regulation and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), its primary regulator. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures the Bank’s deposit accounts up to the maximum allowable amount.
On November 17, 2015, the Company completed a four-for-one forward stock split in the form of a stock dividend. References made to outstanding shares or per share amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this four-for-one stock split. In November, the number of authorized shares of common stock available for issuance was increased from 50,000,000 to 150,000,000 as approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders.
Use of Estimates. In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the assessment for other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities and the fair value of certain financial instruments.
Business. The Bank provides consumer and business banking products through the branchlessonline distribution channels and affinity partners. The Bank’s deposit products are demand accounts, savings accounts and time deposits marketed to consumers and businesses located in all 50fifty states. The Bank’s primary lending products are residential single family and multifamily mortgage loans. The Bank’s business is primarily concentrated in the stateState of California and is subject to the general economic conditions of that state.
Cash and cash equivalents.Cash Equivalents. The Bank’s cash, due from banks, money market mutual funds and federal funds sold, all of which have original maturities within 90 days, consist of cash and cash equivalents. Net cash flows are reported for customer deposit transactions.
Restrictions on Cash segregated for regulatory purposes. Federal Reserve Board regulations require depository institutions to maintain certain minimum reserve balances. Included inwithin this are cash were balances required by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco of $35,159the Bank. In addition this line item includes qualified deposits in special reserve bank accounts for the exclusive benefit of Axos Clearing customers in accordance with Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Rate”) and $6,880 at June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.other regulations.
Interest Rate Risk. The Bank’s assets and liabilities are generally monetary in nature and interest rate changes have an effect on the Bank’s performance. The Bank decreases the effect of interest rate changes on its performance by striving to match maturities and interest sensitivity between loans and deposits. A significant change in interest rates could have a material effect on the Bank’s results of operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk.Risk. The Bank’s loan portfolio was collateralized by various forms of real estate with approximately 68.0%72.2% of the mortgage portfolio located in California at June 30, 2016.2019. The Bank’s loan portfolio contains concentrations of credit in multifamily, single family, commercial, and home equity loans. The Bank believes its underwriting standards combined with its low LTV requirements substantially mitigate the risk of loss which may result from these concentrations.
Brand Partnership Products.Through its strategic partnerships division, the Bank has agreements with third-party service providers (“Program Managers”) possessing demonstrated expertise in managing programs involving marketing and processing financial products such as credit, debit, and prepaid cards, and small business and consumer loans. These relationships include the Company’s relationships with H&R Block, Inc., Netspend and BFS Capital, among others. As delineated by the related contracts, a Program Manager provides program management services in its areas of expertise subject to the Bank’s continuing control and active supervision of the subject program. Underwriting standards and credit decisioning remain with the Bank in all cases. Each of these relationships is designed to allow the Bank to leverage the Program Manager’s knowledge and experience to distribute
program-related financial products to a broad and increasing base of customers. With respect to credit products, the Bank generally originates the resulting receivable for sale, but may, in its discretion, retain such receivable. The Bank performs extensive due diligence with respect to each Program Manager and program, and maintains a regimen of comprehensive risk management and strict compliance oversight with respect to all programs.
Through our agreement with H&R Block, Inc. (“H&R Block”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries the Bank provides H&R Block-branded financial products and services. The products and services that represent the primary focus and the majority of transactional volume that the Bank processes are described in detail below.
The first product is Emerald Prepaid Mastercard® services. The Bank entered into agreements to offer this product in August 2015. Under the agreements, the Bank is responsible for the primary oversight and control of the prepaid card programs of a wholly-owned subsidiary of H&R Block. The Bank holds the prepaid card customer deposits for those cards issued under the prepaid programs in non-interest bearing accounts and earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block’s subsidiary for each automated clearing house (“ACH”) transaction processed through the prepaid card customer accounts. A portion of H&R Block’s customers use the Emerald Card as an option to receive federal and state income tax refunds. The prepaid customer deposits are included in non-interest bearing deposit liabilities on the balance sheet of the Company and the ACH fee income is included in the income statement under the line banking and service fees.
The second product is Refund Transfer. The Bank entered into agreements to offer this product in August 2015. The Bank is responsible for the primary oversight and control of the refund transfer program of a wholly-owned subsidiary of H&R Block. The Bank opens a temporary bank account for each H&R Block customer who is receiving an income tax refund and elects to defer payment of his or her tax preparation fees. After the Internal Revenue Service and any state income tax authorities transfer the refund into the customer’s account, the net funds are transferred to the customer and the temporary deposit account is closed. The Bank earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block for each of the H&R Block customers electing a Refund Transfer. The fees are earned primarily in the quarters ending March 31st and are included in the income statement under the line banking and service fees.
The third product is Emerald Advance. The Bank entered into agreements to offer this product in August 2015. Under the agreements the Bank is responsible for the underwriting guidelines and credit policies for unsecured consumer lines of credit offered to H&R Block customers. The Bank offers and funds unsecured lines of credit to consumers primarily through the H&R Block tax preparation offices and earns interest income and fee income. The Bank retains 10% of the Emerald Advance and sells the remainder to H&R Block. Emerald Advance is a seasonal product and the was no remaining balance as of June 30, 2019. The lines of credit are included in loans and leases on the balance sheet of the Company and the interest income and fee income are included in the income statement under the line loans and leases interest and dividend income.
The fourth product is an interest-free Refund Advance loan. The Bank exclusively originated and funded all of H&R Block’s interest-free Refund Advance loans to tax preparation clients for the 2019 and 2018 tax seasons. The Bank performed the credit underwriting, loan origination, and funding associated with the interest-free Refund Advance loans in the current tax season and received fees from H&R Block for operating the program. No fee is charged to the tax preparation client. Repayment of the Refund Advance loan is deducted from the client’s tax refund proceeds; if an insufficient refund to repay the Refund Advance loan is received, there is no recourse to the client, no negative credit reporting occurs in respect of the client and no collection efforts are made against the client. This agreement is an expansion of the services Axos provided to H&R Block in the 2017 tax season when the Bank participated through purchases of the loans with other providers in the Refund Advance loan program. During the 2017 tax season, the Bank purchased the Refund Advance loans from a third-party bank at a discount and recorded the accretion of the loan discount as interest income, reported on the income statement under the interest and dividend income line item. During the 2018 tax season, the Bank recorded the fees received from H&R Block as interest income on loans, reported on the income statement under the interest and dividend income line item.
The H&R Block-branded financial services products introduce seasonality into the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q in the unaudited condensed consolidated income statements through the banking and service fees category of non-interest income and the other general and administrative category of non-interest expense, with the peak income and expense in these categories typically occurring during the Company’s third fiscal quarter ended March 31.
Securities. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has both the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax. Securities available-for-sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effects, excluded from operations and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The fair values of securities traded in active markets are obtained from market quotes. If quoted prices in active markets are not available, we determine the fair values by utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities. For securities other than non-agency RMBS, we use observable market participant inputs and categorize these securities as Level II in determining fair value. Trading securities refer to certain types of assets that banks hold for resale at a profit or when the Company elects to account for certain securities at fair value. Increases or decreases in the fair value of trading securities are recognized in earnings as they occur. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, netDuring the quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company elected to reclassify all of tax.its held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale. See Note 4 – “Securities” for further information.
Gains and losses on securities sales are based on a comparison of sales proceeds and the amortized cost of the security sold using the specific identification method. Purchases and sales are recognized on the trade date. Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums or discounts. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized or accreted using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. The Company’s portfolios of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities are reviewed quarterly for other-than-temporary impairment. In performing this review, management considers (1) the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) the impact of changes in market interest rates on the market value of the security and (4) how to record an impairment by assessing whether the Company intends to sell it or is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position before the Company recovers the security’s amortized cost. If either of these criteria for (4) is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in earnings. Alternatively, if neither of the criteria for (4) is notare met, the amount of impairment recognized in earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis.
Loans and Leases. Loans and leases that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan and lease origination fees and costs, and an allowance for loan and lease losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Premiums and discounts on loans purchased as well as loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method.
The Company provides equipment financing to its customers through a variety of lease arrangements. The most common arrangement is a direct financing (capital) lease. For direct financing leases, lease receivables are recorded on the balance sheet but the leased property is not, although the Company generally retains legal title to the leased property until the end of each lease. Direct financing leases are stated at the net amount of minimum lease payments receivable, plus any unguaranteed residual value, less the amount of unearned income and net acquisition discount at the reporting date. Direct lease origination costs are amortized over the life of the lease portfolio. Leases acquired in an acquisition are initially measured and recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date. Purchase discounts or premiums on acquired leases are recognized as an adjustment to interest income over the contractual life of the leases using the effective interest method or taken into income when the related leases are paid off. All equipment financing leases are subject to our allowance for loans and leases.
Recognition of interest income on all portfolio segments is generally discontinued at the time the loan or lease is 90 days delinquent unless the loan and lease is well secured and in process of collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not received for loans and leases placed on nonaccrual, is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans and leases are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Seasonal fluctuations in the Other loan classification and its associated allowance for loan and lease losses primarily relate to tax season H&R Block-related loan products. These products are generally short term in nature, in that they are intended to be repaid within a few weeks or months of origination; if they are not repaid timely, they are generally charged off in their entirety at 120 days delinquent, consistent with regulatory guidance for unsecured consumer loan products. The Company provides general loan loss reserves for its H&R Block-related loans based upon prior years’ loss experience with consideration for current year loan performance. While they do incur higher proportional default and charge-off rates than the remainder of the Company’s loan and lease portfolio, these asset quality attributes are within expectations of the design of the products.
Loans Held for Sale. U.S. government agency (“agency”) loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair value. Net unrealized gains and losses are recognized through mortgage banking income in the income statement. The Bank sells its mortgage loans with either servicing released or servicing retained depending upon market pricing. Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded as mortgage banking income or other gains on sale, based on the difference between sales proceeds and carrying value. Non-agency loans held for sale as of June 30, 2016 wereare carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The Company has elected the fair value option for Agency loans held for sale. These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loan and in accordance with the Company’s policy on loans held for investment.
Loans that were originated with the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future (loans held in portfolio)for investment) but which have been subsequently designated as being held for sale for risk management or liquidity needs are carried at the lower of cost or fair value calculated using pools of loans with similar characteristics.
There may be times when loans have been classified as held for sale and cannot be sold. Loans transferred to a long-term investment classification from held-for-sale are transferred at the lower of cost or marketfair value on the transfer date. Any difference between the carrying amount of the loan and its outstanding principal balance is recognized as an adjustment to yield by the interest method. A loan cannot be classified as a long-term investment unless the Bank has both the ability and the intent to hold the loan for the foreseeable future or until maturity.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level estimated to provide for probable incurred losses in the loan and lease portfolio.portfolio held for investment. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on reviews of individual loans and leases and pools of loans, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan and lease losses, which is charged against current period operating results, and recoveries of loans and leases previously charged-off. The allowance is decreased by the amount of charge-offs of loans deemed uncollectible. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. The allowance is decreased by the amount of charge-offs of loansand leases deemed uncollectible. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans and leases but the entire allowance is available for any loan or lease that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.
The allowance for loan and lease losslosses includes specificgeneral reserves and generalmay include specific reserves. Specific reserves may be provided for impaired loans and leases considered Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”). All other impaired loans and leases are written down through charge-offs to the fair value of collateral, less estimated selling cost, and no specific or general reserve is provided. A loan or lease is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan or lease agreement. Loans and leases for which terms have been modified resulting in a concession and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties are considered TDRs and classified as impaired. A loan or lease is measured for impairment generally two different ways. If the loan or lease is primarily dependent upon the borrower to make payments, then impairment is calculated by comparing the present value of the expected future payments discounted at the effective loan rate to the carrying value of the loan. If the loan or lease is collateral dependent, the net proceeds from the sale of the collateral is compared to the carrying value of the loan.loan or lease. If the calculated amount is less than the carrying value of the loan or lease, the loan or lease has impairment.
A general reserve is included in the allowance for loan and lease losslosses and is determined by adding the results of a quantitative and a qualitative analysis to all other loans and leases not measured for impairment at the reporting date. The quantitative analysis determines the Bank’s actual annual historic charge-off rates for the previous three fiscal years and applies the average historic rates to the outstanding loan and lease balances in each pool, the product of which is the general reserve amount. The qualitative analysis considers one or more of the following factors: changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in economic conditions, changes in the content of the portfolio, changes in lending management, changes in the volume of delinquency rates, changes to the scope of the loan and lease review system, changes in the underlying collateral of the loans and leases, changes in credit concentrations and any changes in the requirements to the credit loss calculations. A loss rate is estimated and applied to those loans and leases affected by the qualitative factors. The following portfolio segments have been identified: single family secured mortgage, home equity secured mortgage, single family warehouse and other, multi-family secured mortgage, commercial real estate and land secured mortgage, auto secured and recreational vehicles, factoring, commercial and industrial (“C&I”) and consumer and other.
General loan and lease loss reserves are calculated by grouping each mortgage loan or lease by collateral type and by grouping the LTV ratios of each loan within the collateral type. An estimated allowance rate for each LTV group within each type of loan and lease is multiplied by the total principal amount in the group to calculate the required general reserve attributable to that group. Management uses an allowance rate that provides a larger loss allowance for loans with greater LTV ratios. General loan loss reserves for C&I loans are determined through a loan level grading system to base its projected loss rates. A matrix was created with a base loss rate with additional potential industry and volume risk adjustments, to calculate a loss rating for each deal.
Given the lack of historical loss experience for this segment at the Company, an allowance loss range is based upon historical peer loss rates. General loan loss reserves for consumer loans are calculated by grouping each loan by credit score (e.g., FICO) at origination and applying an estimated allowance rate to each group. In addition to credit score grading, general loan loss reserves are increased for all consumer loans determined to be 90 days or more past due. Specific reserves or direct charge-offs are calculated when an internal asset review of a loan or lease identifies a significant adverse change in the financial position of the borrower or the value of the collateral. The specific reserve or direct charge-off is based on discounted cash flows, observable market prices or the estimated value of underlying collateral.
Specific loan or lease charge-offs on impaired loans or leases are recorded as a write-off and a decrease to the allowance in the period the impairment is identified. A loan or lease is classified as a TDR when management determines that an existing borrower is in financial distress and the borrower’s loan or lease terms are modified to provide the borrower a financial concession (e.g., lower payment) that would not otherwise be provided by another lender based upon borrower’s current financial condition. TDRs are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a TDR is considered to be a collateral dependent loan or lease, the loan or lease is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell. For TDRs that subsequently default, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan and lease losses.
If the present value of estimated cash flows under the modified terms of a TDR discounted at the original loan or lease effective rate is less than the book value of the loan or lease before the TDR, the excess is specifically allocated to the loan or lease in the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Mortgage Servicing Rights. Rights.Mortgage servicing assets are recognized when rights are acquired through sale of loans. The Company measures its servicing asset using the fair value method. Under the fair value method, the servicing rights are recorded as separateincluded in other assets on ourthe consolidated balance sheets whensheet at fair value. The changes in fair value are reported in earnings in the Company retainsperiod in which the right to service loans that we have sold.changes occur and the adjustments are included in Non-Interest Income - Mortgage banking income in the consolidated statements of income.
Mortgage Banking Derivatives.Derivatives. Commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of these mortgage loans are accounted for as free standing derivatives. Fair values of these mortgage derivatives are estimated based on changes in mortgage interest rates from the date the interest on the loan is locked. The Company enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans when interest rate locks are entered into, in order to hedge the change in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans. Changes in the fair values of these derivatives are included in mortgage banking income.
Furniture, Equipment and Software. Fixed asset purchases in excess of five hundred dollars are capitalized and recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the assets’ useful lives or the lease term. Furniture, equipment and software are included in the other assets line on the consolidated balance sheet.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. The Company records a valuation allowance when management believes it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. An income tax position will be recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that it will be sustained upon IRS examination, based upon its technical merits. Once that status is met, the amount recorded will be the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in the income tax expense. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 effective July 1, 2017. As a result of the adoption, the Company recorded $2.0 million and $2.4 million of income tax benefits for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively, related to excess tax benefits from stock compensation. Prior to 2018, such excess tax benefits were generally recorded directly in stockholders’ equity. This accounting standard may potentially increase the volatility in the Company’s effective tax rates.
Securities Borrowed and Securities Loaned. Securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions are reported as collateralized financings and recorded at the amount of cash collateral advanced or received. Securities borrowed transactions require the Company to deposit cash with the lender. With respect to securities loaned, the Company receives collateral in the form of cash in an amount in excess of the fair value of securities loaned. The Company monitors the fair value of securities borrowed and loaned on a daily basis, with additional collateral obtained or refunded, as necessary.
Customer, Broker-Dealer and Clearing Receivables and Payables. Customer, broker-dealer and clearing receivables include receivables of the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries, which represent amounts due on cash and margin transactions
and are generally collateralized by securities owned by clients. These receivables, primarily consisting of floating-rate loans collateralized by customer-owned securities, are charged interest at rates similar to other such loans made throughout the industry. The receivables are reported at their outstanding principal balance net of allowance for doubtful accounts. When a receivable is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is generally measured based on the fair value of the securities acting as collateral, which is measured based on current prices from independent sources, such as listed market prices or broker-dealer price quotations. Securities owned by customers, including those that collateralize margin or other similar transactions, are not reflected in the balance sheet. Also included in these accounts are receivables and payables from brokers and dealers and clearing organizations as well as securities failed to deliver and receive.
Business Combinations. Mergers and acquisitions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations” using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets and liabilities acquired and assumed are generally recorded at their fair values as of the date of the transaction. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Significant estimates and judgments are involved in the fair valuation and purchase price allocation process.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets that have finite lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives and subject to periodic impairment testing. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are amortized to expense using accelerated or straight-line methods over their respective estimated useful lives.
Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which is conducted at least annually. The Company performs impairment testing during the third quarter of each year or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired.
The Company performs 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, after assessing updated qualitative factors, the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it does not have to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit under the first step of the goodwill impairment test and determining the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit under the second step of the goodwill impairment test are judgmental and often involve the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Similarly, estimates and assumptions are used in determining the fair value of other intangible assets. Estimates of fair value are primarily determined using discounted cash flows, market comparisons and recent transactions. These approaches use significant estimates and assumptions including projected future cash flows, discount rates reflecting the market rate of return, projected growth rates and determination and evaluation of appropriate market comparables. Future events could cause the Company to conclude that goodwill or other intangibles have become impaired, which would result in recording an impairment loss. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Earnings per Common Share. Earnings per common share (“EPS”) are presented under two formats: basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common stock (net income after deducting dividends on preferred stock) by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year and the unvested average of participating restricted stock unit shares.units (“RSU”). Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the sum of net income attributable to common stock and dividends on diluted preferred stock by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year and the impact of dilutive potential common shares, such as nonparticipating RSUs, stock options and convertible preferred stock.
The Company accounts for unvested stock-based compensation awards containing non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (collectively, “dividends”) as participating securities and includes the awards in the EPS calculation using the two-class method. The Company has granted restricted stock units under the 2004 Plan to certain directors and employees, which entitle the recipients to receive non-forfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. These unvested awards meet the definition of participating securities. Under the two class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to each class of common stock and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Under the 2014 Plan, restricted stock units have no shareholder rights, meaning they are not entitled to dividends and are considered nonparticipating. These nonparticipating restricted stock units are not included in the basic earnings per common share calculation and are included in the diluted earnings per common share calculation using the treasury stock method.
Stock-Based Compensation. Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock unit awards issued to employees, based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black-ScholesBlack–Scholes model is utilized to estimate fair value of the stock options, while market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant is used for restricted stock awards.unit awards, except for the Chief Executive Officer’s restricted stock unit awards under an employment agreement effective July 1, 2017. For
the Chief Executive Officer’s restricted stock unit awards under an employment agreement effective July 1, 2017, a Monte Carlo simulation is utilized to estimate the value of path-dependent options in order to determine the fair value of the restricted stock unit award. Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with only a service condition that have a graded vesting schedule, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. For awards that contain a market condition and have a graded vesting schedule compensation cost is recognized using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period for the awards.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock
Stock of Regulatory Agencies. The Bank is a member of the FHLBFederal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system. Members are required to own a certain amount of FHLB stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts.factors. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Axos Securities is a member of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), a financial services company providing clearing and settlement services to the financial markets. Members are required to own a certain amount of DTCC stock based on the clearing levels and other factors. DTCC stock is carried at fair value, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.
Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance. The Bank has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other amounts due that are probable at settlement. Cash surrender value of life insurance is included in the other assets line on the consolidated balance sheet.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments. Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. The allowance for loan commitments is included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities and adjustments to the allowance run through provision for loan and lease loses.
Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, which are also recognized as separate components of equity.
Loss Contingencies. Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are now such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Dividend Restriction. Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the holding company. As of June 30, 2016,2019, there aare no dividend restrictions on the Bank noror the Company.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 2.3. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Operating SegmentsRevenue Recognition. While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be one reportable operating segment.
H&R Block Bank Deposit Acquisition and Program Management Agreement. On August 31, 2015, the Bank completed the acquisition of approximately $419 million in deposits consisting of checking, individual retirement savings, and CD accounts from H&R Block Bank and its parent company, H&R Block, Inc. (“H&R Block”). Additionally, the Bank and Emerald Financial Services, LLC (“EFS”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of H&R Block, entered into the Program Management Agreement (“PMA”), dated August 31, 2015; the Bank and H&R Block, EFS, HRB Participant I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of H&R Block, entered into the Emerald Receivables Participation Agreement, dated August 31, 2015; and the Bank and H&R Block entered into the Guaranty Agreement (together, the “PMA and related Agreements”), dated August 31, 2015. Through the PMA and related Agreements the Bank will provide H&R Block-branded financial services products and services. The three products and services that represent the primary focus and the majority of transactional volume that the Bank will process are described below.
The first product is Emerald Prepaid MasterCard® services, which is under Schedule A of the PMA. The Bank is responsible for the primary oversight and control of the prepaid card programs of a wholly owned subsidiary of H&R Block. Under the PMA and related Agreements, the Bank holds the prepaid card customer deposits for those cards issued under the prepaid programs in non-interest bearing accounts and earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block’s subsidiary for each automated clearing house (“ACH”) transaction processed through the prepaid card customer accounts. A portion of H&R Block’s customers use the Emerald Card as an option to receive federal and state income tax refunds. The prepaid customer deposits are included in non-interest bearing deposit liabilities on the balance sheet ofJuly 1, 2018, the Company and the ACH fee income is included in the income statement under the line banking service fees and other income.
The second product is Refund Transfer, which is under Schedule B of the PMA. The Bank is responsible for the primary oversight and control of the refund transfer program of a wholly owned subsidiary of H&R Block. Under the PMA and related Agreements, the Bank opens a temporary bank account for each H&R Block customer who is receiving an income tax refund and elects to defer payment of his or her tax preparations fees. After the Internal Revenue Service and any state income tax authorities transfer the refund into the customer’s account, the net funds are transferred to the customer and the temporary deposit account is closed. The Bank earns a fixed fee paid by H&R Block for each of the H&R Block customers electing a Refund Transfer. The fees are earned primarily in the quarter ended March 31st and are included in the income statement under the line banking service fees and other income.
The third product is Emerald Advance, which is under Schedule C of the PMA. The Bank is responsible for the underwriting guidelines and credit policies for unsecured consumer lines of credit offered to H&R Block customers. Under the PMA and related Agreements, the Bank offers and funds unsecured lines of credit to consumers primarily through the H&R Block tax preparation offices and earns interest income and fee income. The Bank retains 10% of the Emerald Advance and sells the remainder to H&R Block. The lines of credit are included in loans and leases on the balance sheet of the Company and the interest income and fee income are included in the income statement under the line loans and leases interest and dividend income.
The H&R Block-branded financial services products introduce seasonality into the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q in the unaudited condensed consolidated income statements through the banking and service fees category of non-interest income and the other general and administrative category of non-interest expense, with the peak income and expense in these categories typically occurring during the Company’s third fiscal quarter ended March 31.
Pacific Western Equipment Finance Asset Acquisition. On March 31, 2016, the Bank entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Pacific Western Bank to acquire approximately $140 million of equipment leases from Pacific Western Equipment Finance and assumed certain insignificant operations and related liabilities. The purchase price and consideration paid for the assets consisted of the fair market value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities plus a lease purchase price premium of approximately 2.5%.
The Bank provides equipment financing to its customers through a variety of lease arrangements. The most common arrangement is a direct financing (capital) lease. For direct financing leases, lease receivables are recorded on the balance sheet but the leased property is not, although the Bank generally retains legal title to the leased property until the end of each lease. Direct financing leases are stated at the net amount of minimum lease payments receivable, plus any unguaranteed residual value, less the amount of unearned income and net acquisition discount at the reporting date. Direct lease origination costs are amortized over the weighted average life of the lease portfolio. Leases acquired in an acquisition are initially measured and recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date. Purchase discounts or premiums on acquired leases are recognized as an adjustment to interest income over the contractual life of the leases using the effective interest method or taken into income when the related leases are paid off. Direct financing leases are subject to the Company’s allowance for loans and leases.
New Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which completesand all subsequent amendments using a modified retrospective approach. The implementation of the joint effort by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to improve financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09, which clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers, doesnew standard did not apply to financial instruments. ASU 2015-14 provided an extension to the original effective date and the amendments are effective for annual and interim periods, beginning December 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2014-09, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the measurement, timing, or recognition of revenue. Accordingly, no cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings was deemed necessary. Results for reporting periods beginning after July 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605.
The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard affects all entities that either enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other guidance.
Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain non-interest income streams such as gain or loss associated with mortgage servicing rights, financial guarantees, derivatives, and income from bank owned life insurance are also not within the scope of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to non-interest income such as deposit related fees, interchange fees, merchant related income. However, the recognition of these revenue streams did not change significantly upon adoption of Topic 606. Non-interest income considered to be within the scope of Topic 606 is discussed below.
Deposit Service Fees. Service charges on deposit accounts consist of account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Company’s consolidated financial statements.performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized, when incurred. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.
Fees, Exchange, and Other Service Charges. Fees, exchange, and other service charges are primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income, and other service charges. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks, and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for fees, exchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Broker dealer clearing fees. The Company earns revenues for executing, settling and clearing securities transactions for other broker-dealers on a fully disclosed basis. Trade execution and clearing services, when provided together, represent a single performance obligation as the services are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract. Revenues associated with combined trade execution and clearing services, as well as trade execution services on a standalone basis, are recognized at a point in time on trade-date. The Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date because that is when the underlying security or purchaser is identified, the pricing is agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to/from the customer. The Company also earns revenues for custody services which are separately identifiable and represent a distinct performance obligation which is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits. Certain clearing or custody related fees represent a modification of the original contract as they are distinct services. All trade and execution services are priced at their standalone selling price. Clearing and other fees are generally deducted from the introducing brokers’ commissions on a monthly basis.
Bankruptcy Trustee and Fiduciary Service Fees. Bankruptcy Trustee and Fiduciary Service income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the Monthly Basis Point Fee and Bank Account Service Charge. The products and services provided to the Trustee also indirectly provide additional deposits to the other banks. One of the uses of the increased deposits by the other banks is to fund the fees paid. The performance obligation is satisfied when the deposits are increased (or decreased) at the end of each month. The expected value method will be used to calculate and record the estimated revenue at the beginning of each month with a subsequent reconciliation to actual at the end of each month.
The following presents non-interest income, segregated by revenue streams in-scope and out-of-scope of Topic 606, for the periods indicated.

Contract Balances. A contract asset or receivable is recognized if the Company performs a service or transfers a good in advance of receiving consideration. A contract liability is recognized if the Company receives consideration (or has the unconditional right to receive consideration) in advance of performance. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s contract assets and liabilities were not considered material.
Contract Acquisition Costs. The Company uses the practical expedient to expense contract acquisition costs when the asset that would have resulted from capitalizing these costs would have been amortized in less than one year. In April 2015,adopting the guidance in Topic 606, the Company did not capitalize any contract acquisition costs.
Other. Income from bank owned life insurance is accounted for in accordance with ASC 325, Investments - Other. Lending related income includes fees earned from gains or losses on the sale of loans, SBA income, and letter of credit fees. Gains and losses on the sale of loans and SBA income are recognized pursuant to ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. Fees related to standby letters of credit are accounted for in accordance with ASC 440, Commitments. Net gain or loss on sales / valuations of repossessed and other assets is presented as a component of non-interest expense, but may also be presented as a component of non-interest income in the event that a net gain is recognized. Net gain or loss on sales of repossessed and other assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 610, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets.
New Accounting Pronouncements.
Accounting Standards Adopted During Fiscal 2019
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation2016-18, Restricted Cash (Topic 326):Restricted Cash. This ASU will amend the guidance in ASC Topic 230, Statement of Interest (Subtopic 835-30); SimplifyingCash Flows, and is intended to reduce the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-03”) which was issued to simplifydiversity in the classification and presentation of Debt issuance costs.changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The amendments within this ASU 2015-03 guidance requireswill require that debt issuance costs relatedthe reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents amounts shown on the statement of cash flows include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. If restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are presented separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, an entity will be required to a recognized debt liability bereconcile the amounts presented on the statement of financial condition as a direct deduction fromcash flows to the carrying amountamounts on the balance sheet. An entity will also be required to disclose information regarding the nature of that debt liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts. The amendments arerestrictions. ASU 2016-18 requires retrospective application and is effective for annual and interim periods,fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years.years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-13, but doesadopted this standard on March 31, 2019. The new guidance did not expect it to have a materialsignificant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.statements at the time of adoption.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is deemed to be a business. Determining whether a transferred set constitutes a business is important because the accounting for a business combination differs from that of an asset acquisition. The definition of a business also affects the accounting for dispositions. Under the new standard, when substantially all of the fair value of assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset, or a group of similar assets, the assets acquired would not represent a business and business combination accounting would not be required. The new standard may result in more transactions being accounted for as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. The Company adopted this standard on July 1, 2018. The new guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of adoption.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment: The objective of this guidance is to simplify an entity’s required test for impairment of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In Step 2 an entity measured a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill, an entity had to determine the fair value at the impairment date of its assets and liabilities, including any unrecognized assets and liabilities, following a procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Under this Update, an entity should perform its annual or quarterly goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the reporting unit’s fair value. The loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit and the entity must consider the income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. This guidance is effective for a public business entity that is an SEC filer for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The new guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the time of adoption.
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, (“Leases, as amended in July 2018 by ASU 2016-02”), Leases. 2018-10 Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU 2018-11 Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASUASUs 2016-02, is2018-10 and 2018-11 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is requiredanticipated for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented
in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluatinghas completed its review of contracts and does not expect a material impact on the potential impact of ASU 2016-02.Company’s consolidated financial statements and regulatory capital and risk-weighted assets or results from operations.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which (i) significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model; and (ii) provides for recording credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities through an allowance account. ASU 2016-13 also requires certain incremental disclosures. ASU 2016-13 takes effectshould be applied on a modified-retrospective transition approach that would require a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening retained earnings in 2020the statement of financial condition as of the date of adoption. A prospective transition approach is required for SEC filersdebt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. The guidance will be effective for the Company’s financial statements that include periods beginning July 1, 2020. The Company has completed the development the of implementation plan and is in 2021 for all other entities including public business entities other than SEC filers.the process of model development. The Company expects ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments in ASU 2017-08 to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, shorten the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date, which more closely align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities. Under current GAAP, entities generally amortize the premium as an adjustment of yield over the contractual life of the instrument. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annualfiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU expands and refines hedge accounting for both financial and non-financial risk components, aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of hedging instruments and hedge items in the financial statements, and includes certain targeted improvements to ease the application of current guidance related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, includingand interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to opening retained earnings as of the initial adoption date. The Company does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2018, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in ASU 2018-07 to Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, are intended to align the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees. Changes to the accounting for nonemployee awards include: 1) equity classified share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees will now be measured on the grant date, instead of the previous requirement to remeasure the awards through the performance completion date; 2) for performance conditions, compensation cost associated with the award will be recognized when achievement of the performance condition is currently evaluatingprobable, rather than upon achievement of the potential impactperformance condition; and 3) the current requirement to reassess the classification (equity or liability) for nonemployee awards upon vesting will be eliminated, except for awards in the form of convertible instruments. The new guidance also clarifies that any share-based payment awards issued to customers should be evaluated under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU 2016-13.are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company’s share-based payment awards to nonemployees consist only of grants made to the Company’s nonemployee Directors as compensation solely related to each individual’s role as a nonemployee Director. As such, in accordance with ASC 718, the Company accounts for these share-based payment awards to its nonemployee Directors in the same manner as share-based payment awards for its employees. Accordingly, the amendments in this guidance will not have an effect on the accounting for the Company’s share-based payment awards to its nonemployee Directors.
In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance within ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement Disclosure Framework (Topic 820) - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 require a nonpublic entity to disclose transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities. Public companies are also now required to disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. Under current GAAP, entities are required to disclose a roll forward for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU related to changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative
description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of this ASU. The Company does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company will adopt this standard on July 1, 2019.
2. ACQUISITIONS
The Company completed two business acquisitions and two asset acquisitions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and one business acquisition during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The pro forma results of operations and the results of operations for the acquisitions since the acquisition date have not been separately disclosed because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements. The Company has included the financial results of the acquired businesses in its consolidated financial statements subsequent to the acquisition dates. The business acquisitions have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the transaction date. The Company made significant estimates and exercised judgment in estimating fair values and accounting for such acquired assets and liabilities. The purchase transactions are detailed below.
MWABank deposit acquisition. On March 15, 2019, the Bank closed the deposit assumption agreement with MWA Bank and acquired approximately $173 million of deposits, including approximately $151 million of checking, savings and money market accounts and $22 million of time deposits, from MWABank. Axos did not acquire any assets, employees or branches in this transaction. The Bank received cash equal to the book value of the deposit liabilities.
WiseBanyan. On February 26, 2019 the Company’s subsidiary, Axos Securities, LLC, had completed the acquisition of WiseBanyan Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively “WiseBanyan”). Headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, WiseBanyan is a provider of personal financial and investment management services through a proprietary technology platform. WiseBanyan currently serves approximately 24,000 clients with approximately $150 million of assets under management. The Company paid $3.2 million in cash to acquire the assets of WiseBanyan and recorded $2.7 million in intangible assets.The Company purchased the whole WiseBanyan business and has the entire voting interest. Goodwill is not expected to be deducted for tax purposes.
COR Securities Holdings. On January 28, 2019 (“Acquisition Date”), Axos Clearing, LLC and Axos Clarity MergeCo., Inc. completed the acquisition of COR Securities Holdings Inc.(“COR Securities”), the parent company of COR Clearing LLC (“COR Clearing”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 28, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”).
Headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, COR Clearing is a full-service correspondent clearing firm for independent broker-dealers. Established as a part of Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company and spun off as Legent Clearing in 2002, COR Clearing provides clearing, settlement, custody, and securities and margin lending to more than sixty introducing broker-dealers and 90,000 customers. The total cash consideration of approximately $80.9 million was funded with existing capital. The Company issued subordinated notes totaling $7.5 million to the principal stockholders of COR Securities in an equal principal amount, with a maturity of 15 months, to serve as the sole source of payment of indemnification obligations of the principal stakeholders of COR Securities under the Merger Agreement.
The acquisition of COR Securities is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration paid are recorded at estimated fair values on the Acquisition Date. The Company recorded goodwill for a provisional amount of $34.9 million and an additional $20.1 million in intangible assets as of the Acquisition Date. The estimated fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities are subject to refinement as additional information relative to closing date fair values becomes available. Any subsequent measurement period adjustments to the fair values of acquired assets and liabilities assumed, identifiable intangible assets, or other purchase accounting adjustments will result in adjustments to goodwill no later than within the first 12 months following the closing date of acquisition. Included in the professional services line of the statement of income the Company recognized $0.4 million in transaction costs.
The acquisition will enable the Company to expand its banking business to a new customer base through independent broker-dealers and consumer account relationships, scale entry into wealth management through technology-driven platforms, and increase and diversify fee revenue, all of which will improve key operating metrics. The goodwill recognized results from the expected synergies and potential earnings from this combination.
The consideration paid for COR Securities common equity was $88.4 and the provisional fair values of acquired identifiable assets and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition Date were as follows:

Nationwide Bank deposit acquisition. On November 16, 2018, the Bank completed the acquisition of substantially all of Nationwide Bank’s (“Nationwide”) deposits at the time of closing, adding $2.4 billion in deposits, including $661.4 million in checking, savings and money market accounts and $1.7 billion in time deposit accounts. The Bank received cash for the deposit balances transferred less a premium of $13.5 million, recorded in intangibles, commensurate with the fair market value of the deposits purchased.
Bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary services business of Epiq Systems, Inc. On April 4, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of the bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary services business of Epiq Systems, Inc. (“Epiq”). The assets acquired by the Company include comprehensive software solutions, trustee customer relationships, trade name, accounts receivable and fixed assets. The business provides specialized software and consulting services to Chapter 7 bankruptcy and non-Chapter 7 trustees and fiduciaries in all fifty states. This business is expected to generate fee income from bank partners and bankruptcy cases, as well as opportunities to source low cost deposits. No deposits were acquired as part of the transaction.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the aggregate purchase price included the payment of $70.0 million in cash. The Company acquired assets with approximate fair values of $32.7 million of intangible assets, including customer relationships, developed technologies, a covenant not to compete and the trade name, and $1.6 million of accounts receivable and fixed assets, resulting in $35.7 million of goodwill. Transaction-related expenses were de minimis.
The following table sets forth the approximate fair value of assets acquired from Epiq on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2018:
|
| | | |
| (Dollars in thousands) | April 4, 2018 |
| Fair value of consideration paid | |
| Cash | $ | 70,002 |
|
| Total consideration paid | $ | 70,002 |
|
| | |
| Fair value of assets acquired | |

|
| Total assets | $ | 34,283 |
|
| Fair value of net assets acquired | $ | 34,283 |
|
| Goodwill incident to acquisition | $ | 35,719 |
|
The Company recognized goodwill of $35.7 million as of April 4, 2018, which is calculated as the excess of the consideration exchanged as compared to the fair value of identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill resulted from expanded product lines and low-cost funding opportunities and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the Company settled the working capital with Epiq. See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for further information on goodwill and other intangible assets.
3. FAIR VALUE
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
|
| | |
| Level 1: | | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. |
| | |
| Level 2: | | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets include securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. |
| | |
| Level 3: | | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models such as discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. |
When available, the Company generally uses quoted market prices to determine fair value. In some cases where a market price is available, the Company will make use of acceptable practical expedients (such as matrix pricing) to calculate fair value, in which case the items are classified in Level 2.
The Company considers relevant and observable market prices in its valuations where possible. The frequency of transactions, the size of the bid-ask spread and the nature of the participants are some of the factors the Company uses to help determine whether a market is active and orderly or inactive and not orderly. Price quotes based upon transactions that are not orderly are not considered to be determinative of fair value and are given little, if any, weight in measuring fair value.
If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates, credit spreads, housing value forecasts, etc. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable.
The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company to measure various financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair-value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified:
Securities—trading and available-for-sale. Trading securities are recorded at fair value. The trading portfolio consists of two different issues of floating-rate debt securities collateralized by pools of bank trust preferred securities. Liquidity and economic uncertainty have made the market for collateralized debt obligations less active or inactive. As quoted market prices are not available, the Level 3 fair values for these securities are determined by the Company utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities from the underlying assets. The Company’s expected cash flows are calculated for each security and include the impact of actual and forecasted bank defaults within each collateral pool as well as structural features of the security’s tranche such as lock outs, subordination and over-collateralization. The forecast of underlying bank defaults in each pool is based upon a quarterly financial update including the trend in non-performing assets, the allowance for loan and lease and lease loss and the underlying bank’s capital ratios. Also a factor is the Company’s loan and lease loss experience in the local economy in which the bank operates. At June 30, 2016, the Company’s forecast of cash flows for both securities includes actual and forecasted defaults and deferrals totaling 16.5% of all banks in the collateral pools, compared to 15.4% of the banks actually in default as of June 30, 2016. The expected cash flows reflect the Company’s best estimate of all pool losses which are then applied to the over-collateralization reserve and the subordinated tranches to determine the cash flows. The Company selects a discount rate margin based upon the spread between U.S. Treasury rates and the market rates for active credit grades for financial companies. The discount margin when added to the U.S. Treasury rate determines the discount rate, reflecting primarily market liquidity and interest rate risk since expected credit loss is included in the cash flows. At June 30, 2016, the Company used a weighted average discount margin of 500 basis points above U.S. Treasury rates to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows and the fair value of its trading securities.
The Level 3 fair values determined by the Company for its trading securities rely heavily on management’s assumptions as to the future credit performance of the collateral banks, the impact of the global and regional economic factors, the timing of forecasted defaults and the discount rate applied to cash flows. The fair value of the trading securities at June 30, 2016 is sensitive to an increase or decrease in the discount rate. An increase in the discount margin of 100 basis points would have reduced the total fair value of the trading securities and decreased net income before income tax by $808. A decrease in the discount margin of 100 basis points would have increased the total fair value of the trading securities and increased net income before income tax by $934.
Securities—available-for-sale and held-to-maturity. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value and consist of residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) issued by U.S. agencies, RMBS issued by non-agencies, municipal securities as well as other debt securities. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost and consist of RMBS issued by U.S. agencies, RMBS issued by non-agencies, as well as municipalNon-RMBS securities. Fair value for U.S. agency securities and municipal securities are generally based on quoted market prices of similar securities used to form a dealer quote or a pricing matrix. There continues to be significant illiquidity in the market for RMBS issued by non-agencies, impacting the availability and reliability of transparent pricing. As orderly quoted market prices are not available, the Level 3 fair values for these securities are determined by the Company utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities from the underlying mortgage assets. The Company computes Level 3 fair values for each non-agency RMBS in the same manner (as described below) whether available-for-sale or held-to-maturity.
To determine the performance of the underlying mortgage loan pools, the Company estimates prepayments, defaults, and loss severities based on a number of macroeconomic factors, including housing price changes, unemployment rates, interest rates and borrower attributes such as credit score and loan documentation at the time of origination. The Company inputs for each security a projection of monthly default rates, loss severity rates and voluntary prepayment rates for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows. The projections of default rates are derived by the Company from the historic default rate observed in the pool of loans collateralizing the security, increased by and decreased by the forecasted increase or decrease in the national unemployment rate. The projections of loss severity rates are derived by the Company from the historic loss severity rate observed in the pool of loans, increased by or decreased by the forecasted increase or decrease in the national home price appreciation (��(“HPA”) index. The largest factors influencing the Company’s modeling of the monthly default rate are unemployment and HPA, as a strong correlation exists. The most updated unemployment rate reported in May 20162019 was 4.7%3.6%. Consensus estimates for unemployment are that the rate will continuebegin to decline.increase. Going forward, the Company is projecting lower monthly default rates. The Company projects that severities will continue to improve.
To determine the discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for these non-agency RMBS securities, the Company separates the securities by the borrower characteristics in the underlying pool. Specifically, “prime” securities generally have borrowers with higher FICO scores and better documentation of income. “Alt-A” securities generally have borrowers with a lower FICO and less documentation of income. “Pay-option ARMs” are Alt-A securities with borrowers that tend to pay the least amount of principal (or increase their loan balance through negative amortization). The Company calculates separate discount rates for prime, Alt-A and Pay-option ARM non-agency RMBS securities using market-participant assumptions for risk, capital and return on equity. The range of annual default rates used in the Company’s projections at June 30, 20162019 are from 1.5% up to 17.8% with prime securities tending toward the lower end of the range and Alt-A and Pay-option ARMs tending toward the higher end of the range.10.2%. The range of loss severity rates applied to each default used in the Company’s projections at June 30, 20162019 are from 40.0% up to 68.8%68.3% based upon individual bond historical performance. The default rates and the severities are projected for every non-agency RMBS security held by the Company and will vary monthly based upon the actual performance of the security and the macroeconomic factors discussed above. The Company applies its discount rates to the projected monthly cash flows, which already reflect the full impact of all forecasted losses using the assumptions described above. When calculating present value of the expected cash flows at June 30, 2016,2019, the Company computed its discount rates as a spread between 245272 and 820686 basis points over the LIBOR Index using the LIBOR forward curve with prime securities tending toward the lower end of the range and Alt-A and Pay-option ARMs tending toward the higher end of the range.curve.
The Bank’s estimate of fair value for non-agency securities using Level 3 pricing is highly subjective and is based on the Bank’s estimate of voluntary prepayments, default rates, severities and discount margins, which are forecasted monthly over the remaining life of each security. Changes in one or more of these assumptions can cause a significant change in the estimated fair value. For further details see the table later in this note that summarizes quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements.
Loans Held for Sale.Sale. Loans held for sale at fair value are primarily single-family residential loans. The fair value of mortgageresidential loans held for sale is determined by pricing for comparable assets or by outstanding commitments from third party investors, resulting in a Level 2 classification.existing forward sales commitment prices with investors.
Impaired Loans and Leases. Impaired loans and leases are loans and leases which are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrowers or the collateral pledged. The accrual of interest income has been discontinued for impaired loans.loans and leases. The impaired loans and leases are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The Company assesses loans and leases individually and identifies impairment when the loan or lease is classified as impaired or has been restructured or management has serious doubts about the future collectibility of principal and interest, even though the loans and leases may currently be performing. The fair value of an impaired loan or lease is determined based on an observable market price or current appraised value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of impaired loans and leases with specific write-offs or allocations of the allowance for loan and lease losses are generally based on recent real estate appraisals or internal valuation analyses consistent with the methodology used in real estate appraisals and include other third-party valuations and analysis of cash flows. These appraisals and analyses are updated at least on an annual basis. The Company primarily obtains real estate appraisals and in the rare cases where an appraisal cannot be obtained, the Company performs an internal valuation analysis. These appraisals and analyses may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and income approaches. The sales comparison approach uses at least three recent similar property sales to help determine the fair value of the property being appraised. The income approach is calculated by taking the net operating income generated by the collateral property of the rent collected and dividing it by an assumed capitalization rate. Adjustments are routinely made in the process by the appraisers to account for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. When measuring the fair value of the impaired loan or lease based upon the projected sale of the underlying collateral, the Company subtracts the costs expected to be incurred for the transfer of the underlying collateral, which includes items such as sales commissions, delinquent taxes and insurance premiums. These adjustments to the estimated fair value of non-performingnonaccrual loans and leases may result in increases or decreases to the provision for loan and lease losses recorded in current earnings. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification for the inputs for determining fair value.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Vehicles. Non-recurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned (“OREO”) are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.
Mortgage Servicing Rights.Rights. The Company initially records all mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) at fair value and accounts for MSRs at fair value during the life of the MSR, with changes in fair value recorded through current period earnings.mortgage banking income in the income statement. Fair value adjustments encompass market-driven valuation changes as well as modeled amortization involving the run-off of value that occurs due to the passage of time as individual loans are paid by borrowers. Market expectations about loan duration, and correspondingly the expected term of future servicing cash flows, may vary from time to time due to changes in expected prepayment activity, especially when interest rates rise or fall. Market expectations of increased loan prepayment speeds may negatively impact the fair value of the single family MSRs. Fair value is also dependent on the discount rate used in calculating present value, which is imputed from observable market activity and market participants and results in Level 3 classification. Management reviews and adjusts the discount rate on an ongoing basis. An increase in the discount rate would reduce the estimated fair value of the MSRs asset.
Mortgage Banking Derivatives. Fair value forDerivatives. In connection with mortgage banking derivativesactivities, the Company enters into commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) and forward sale commitments for the future delivery of these mortgage loans. If interest rates increase, the value of the Company’s interest rate locks are either securitiesadversely impacted. The Company attempts to economically hedge the risk of the overall change in the fair value of interest rate locks with forward sales commitments.
The fair value of interest rate locks is estimated based on changes in mortgage interest rates from the date the interest on the loan is locked, adjusted for items such as estimated fallout and costs to originate the loan.
The fair value of forward sale commitments is based upon prices in active secondary markets for identical securities or based on quoted market prices of similar assets used to form a dealer quote or a pricing matrix, resulting in a Level 2 classification, or derivatives requiring unobservable inputs resulting in Level 3 classification.
The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with or, in some cases, more conservative than other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determinematrix. If no such quoted price exists, the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimatecommitment is determined by quoted prices for a similar commitment or commitments, adjusted for the specific attributes of fair value at the relevant reporting date.each commitment.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s residential mortgage-backed securities are projected prepayment rates, probability of default, and projected loss severity in the event of default. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for the probability of default is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the projected loss severity and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for projected prepayment rates.

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing deposits, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans and leases or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. For fixed rate loans and leases, deposits, borrowings or subordinated debt and for variable rate loans and leases, deposits, borrowings or subordinated debt with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. A discussion of the methods of valuing trading securities, available-for-saleavailable for sale securities and loans held for sale can be found earlier in this footnote. The carrying amount of FHLB Stockstock of regulatory agencies approximates the estimated fair value of this investment. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered material.

2Private sponsors of securities collateralized primarily by pools of 1-4 family residential first mortgages. Primarily super senior securities secured by prime, Alt-A or pay-option ARM mortgages.
The Company’s non-agency RMBS available-for-sale portfolio with a total fair value of $9,364$13,025 at June 30, 20162019 consists of fifteenfourteen different issues of super senior securities with a fair value of $9,352 andsecurities. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the Company sold its two mezzanine z-tranche securities negative-amortizing support tranches, withfor a fair valuegain of $12 collateralized by seasoned prime and Alt-A first-lien mortgages. The Company acquired its mezzanine z-tranche securities in fiscal 2010 and accounts for them by measuring the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the purchase price (accretable yield) and recognizes interest income over the remaining life of the security.$153.
The non-agency RMBS held-to-maturity portfolio with a carrying value of $128,211 at June 30, 2016 consists of seventy-five different issues of super senior securities totaling $125,985 and one senior-support security with a carrying value of $2,226. Debt securities with evidence of credit quality deterioration since issuance and for which it is probable at purchase that the Company will be unable to collect all of the par value of the security are accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30, Accounting for Certain Loans orand Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer.with Deteriorated Credit Quality (“ASC Topic 310-30”). Under ASC Topic 310-30, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the purchase price is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the security. TheDuring the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the Company hassold its one senior support security that it acquired atfor a significant discount that evidenced credit deterioration at acquisition and is accounted for under ASC Topic 310. For a cost of $17,740, the Company acquired the senior support security with a contractual par value of $30,560 and accretable and non-accretable discounts that were projected to be $9,015 and $3,805, respectively. Since acquisition, repayments from the security have been received more rapidly than projected at acquisition, but expected total payments have declined, resulting in a determination that the security was other-than-temporarily impaired. The security realized an other-than temporary loss of zero in fiscal 2016 and zero in 2015. At June 30, 2016, the security had a remaining contractual par value of zero and amortizable and non-amortizable premium are currently projected to be zero and $2,472, respectively.$861.
The current face amounts of debt securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity that were pledged to secure borrowings at June 30, 20162019 and 20152018 were $39,961$3,555 and $39,014$2,540 respectively.

At June 30, 2016, fifty-one2019, one non-agency RMBS with a total carrying amount of $85,632 were$3,143 was determined to have cumulative credit losses of $20,865. Of this amount $2,802$821. Cumulative credit losses of $1,964 were recognized in earnings during fiscal 2017, $156 was recognized in earnings during fiscal 2014, $2,3652018 and $821 was recognized in earnings through other-than-temporary impairment, during fiscal 2015 and $565 was recognized in earnings during fiscal 2016. This year’s other-than-temporary impairment of $565 is related to ten non-agency RMBS with a total carrying amount of $7,832.2019. The Company measures its non-agency RMBS in an unrealized loss position at the end of the reporting period for other-than-temporary impairment by comparing the present value of the cash flows currently expected to be collected from the security with its amortized cost basis. If the calculated present value is lower than the amortized cost, the difference is the credit component of other-than-temporary impairment of its debt securities. The excess of present value over the fair value of the security, if any, is the noncredit component of the other-than-temporary impairment. If the Company does not intend to sell the security and will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the credit component of other-than-temporary impairment is recorded as a loss in earnings and the noncredit component of other-than-temporary impairment is recorded in comprehensive income, net of the related income tax benefit. If the Company does not intend to hold the security, or will be required to sell the security prior to a recovery of the amortized cost basis of the security, the credit component and noncredit component of the other-than-temporary impairment is recorded as a loss in earnings.
To determine the cash flows expected to be collected and to calculate the present value for purposes of testing for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company utilizes the same industry-standard tool and the same cash flows as those calculated for Level 3 fair values as discussed in Note 23 – Fair Value. The discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for purposes of testing for the credit component of the other-than-temporary impairment are either the implicit rate calculated in each of the Company’s securities at acquisition or the last accounting yield. The Company calculates the implicit rate at acquisition based on the contractual terms of the security, considering scheduled payments (and minimum payments in the case of pay-option ARMs) without prepayment assumptions. Once the discount rate (or discount margin in the case of floating rate securities) is calculated as described above, the discount is used in the industry-standard model to calculate the present value of the cash flows.

5. LOANS, LEASES & ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
For the Company’s single family, commercial and multifamily loans, the allowance methodology takes into consideration the risk that the original borrower information may have adversely changed in two ways. First, in calculating the quantitative factor for the Company’s general loan and lease loss allowance, the actual loss experience is tracked and stratified by original LTV and year of origination. As a result, the Company uses relatively higher loss rates across the LTV bands for loans originated and purchased in years 2005 through 2008 compared to the same LTV ranges for loans originated before 2005 or after 2008. Second, the Company uses a number of qualitative factors to reflect additional risk. One qualitative loss factor is real estate valuation risk which is applied to each LTV band primarily based upon the year the real estate loan was originated or purchased. Based upon price appreciation indices, multifamily property values in years 2005 through 2008 experienced significant declines. As a result, the Company applies a relatively higher qualitative loss factor rate across the LTV bands for loans originated and purchased in years 2005 through 2008 compared to the same LTV ranges for loans originated or purchased before 2005 or after 2008.
Lastly, the Company separates its allowance for loan and lease losses into loans originated and purchased categories in order to reflect the additional risk associated with purchased loans.
For the Company’s home equity loans, the allowance methodology takes into consideration the risk that the original borrower information may have adversely changed in two ways. First, in calculating the quantitative factor for the Company’s general loan loss allowance, the actual loss experience is tracked and stratified by original combined LTV (“CLTV”) of the first and second liens. As a result, the Company allocates higher loss rates in proportion to the greater the CLTV. Second, the Company uses a number of qualitative factors to reflect additional risk. The Company does not have any individual purchased home equity loans in its portfolio and given the limited time frame under which the Company originated home equity loans, 2006-2009, no additional risk allocation is used.
For the Company’s single family – warehouse lines, the allowance methodology takes into consideration the structure of these loans, as they remain in the portfolio for a short period (usually less than a month) and have higher credit protection allocated compared to traditional single family originations. A matrix was created to reflect most current operating levels of capital and line usage, which calculates a loss rating to assign to each originator.
For the Company’s factoring loans, the allowance methodology takes into consideration the credit quality of the insurance company or state securing the loan.state. The Company obtains credit ratings for these entities through agencies such as AMA.M. Best and allocates an allowance allocation based on these ratings.
For the Company’s C&I leveraged loans, equipment finance leases and bridge loans, the allowance methodology incorporates a loan level grading system, and risk adjusters.which generally aligns with the credit rating. Industry loss rates are applied to determine the loss allowance for each of these loans based upon their internal grading. The loss rate is then subjectcredit rating incorporates multiple borrower attributes including, but not limited to, risk adjustments increasingunderlying collateral and pledged assets, income generated by the property or decreasing the base loss rate depending upon the healthassets, borrower’s liquidity and access to liquid funds, strength of the borrower’s industry, stability of the borrower’s market, the size of the company, orcollateral diversity, facility exit strategies and borrower guarantees. Equipment direct finance leases are derecognized from the balance sheet and the net investment in the case of bridge loans, based uponlease is recorded. This net investment is the income generated by the property and the strengthsum of the guarantor.
present value of future lease payments and any unguaranteed residual value. Interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate of the lease.
For the Company’s automobile (“auto”) and recreational vehicle (“RV”) loan portfolio, the allowance methodology takes into consideration potential adverse changes to the borrower’s financial condition since time of origination. The general loan loss reserves for auto and RV are stratified based upon borrower FICO scores. First, to account for potential deterioration of borrower’s credit history since time of origination, due to downturn in the economy or other factors, the Company refreshesuses the origination FICO scores used to drive the allowance on a semi-annual basis. The Company believes that current borrower credit history is a better predictor of potential loss than that was used at time of origination. Second, the Company uses a number of qualitative factors such as; changes in the economy, volume, and changes in the underlying collateral to reflectcapture additional risk.risk when finalizing its calculation of the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Loan and lease segment risk characteristics. The Company considers its loan and lease classes to be the same as its loan and lease segments. The following are loan and lease segment risk characteristics of the Company’s loan and lease portfolio:
Single family mortgage secured. The Company originates both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans secured by one-to-four family residences located in the U.S. The Company’s lending policies generally limit the maximum LTV ratio on one-to-four family loans to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or the purchase price, plus pledged collateral. Terms of maturity typically range from 15 to 30 years. The Company attempts to mitigate residential lending risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the collateral and the credit-worthiness of the borrower.
Home equity. The Company also originates home equity lines of credit and second mortgage loans. Home equity lines of credit and second mortgage loans have a greater credit risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans because they are secured by mortgages subordinated to the existing first mortgage on the property, which may or may not be held by the Company. The Company
attempts to mitigate residential lending risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the collateral and the credit-worthiness of the borrower.
Warehouse and other. Single family warehouse loans consist of short-term, secured advances to mortgage bankers on a revolving basis. These facilities enable the mortgage originators to close loans in their own names and temporarily finance inventories of closed mortgage loans until they can be sold to an approved investor. Commercial specialty and lender finance loans secured by single family real estate are originated to businesses secured by first liens on single family mortgage loans. These loans are generally collateralized by single family mortgage loans that are secured by first liens on single family real estate. The Company attempts to mitigate residential lending risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the collateral and the credit-worthiness of the borrower.
Multifamily. The Company originates loans secured by multifamily real estate (more than four units). These loans involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans as these loans are usually greater in amount, dependent on the cash flow capacity of the project, and may be more difficult to evaluate and monitor. Repayment of loans secured by multifamily properties frequently depends on the successful operation and management of the properties. Consequently, repayment of such loans may be affected by adverse conditions in the real estate market or economy. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by thoroughly evaluating the global financial condition of the borrower, the management experience of the borrower, and the quality of the collateral property securing the loan.
Commercial real estate. The Company originates loans across the U.S. secured by small commercial real estate properties. These are primarily cash flow loans that share characteristics of both real estate and commercial business loans. The primary source of repayment is frequently cash flow from the operation of the collateral property and secondarily through liquidation of the collateral. These loans are generally higher risk than other classifications of loans in that they typically involve higher loan amounts, are dependent on the management experience of the owners, and may be adversely affected by conditions in the real estate market or the economy. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are generally of lower credit risk than non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans as the borrowers’ businesses are likely dependent on the properties. Underwriting for these loans is primarily dependent on the repayment capacity derived from the operation of the occupying business rather than rents paid by third parties. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by generally limiting the maximum LTV ratio to 65%-80%, depending on property type, and scrutinizing the financial condition of the borrower, the quality of the collateral and the management of the property securing the loan.
Auto and RV. Auto and RV loans primarily consist of direct and indirect auto loans and legacy RV loans. These auto and RV loans were originated across the U.S. The collateral for these auto and RV loans is comprised of a mix of new and used autos and RVs. Auto and RV loans generally have shorter terms to maturity than mortgage loans. Auto and RV loans generally involve a greater degree of risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of auto and RV loans, which are secured by rapidly depreciating and mobile assets. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted auto and RV loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the credit-worthiness of the borrower.
Factoring. Factoring loans are originated through the wholesale and retail purchase of state lottery prize and structured settlement annuities. These annuities are high credit quality deferred payment receivables having a state lottery commission or primarily highly rated insurance company payor. Purchases of state lottery prize or structured settlement annuities are governed by specific state statutes requiring judicial approval of each transaction. No transaction is funded before an order approving such transaction has been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Company’s commission-based sales force originates contracts for the retail purchase of such payments from leads generated by the Company’s dedicated research department through the use of proprietary research techniques. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the credit-worthiness of the state or insurer.
Commercial and industrial. Commercial and industrial loans and leases are primarily made based on the operating cash flows of the borrower or conversion of working capital assets to cash and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers may be volatile and the value of the collateral securing these loans and leases may be difficult to measure. Most commercial and industrial loans and leases are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and generally include personal guarantees based on a review of personal financial statements. Although commercial and industrial loans and leases are often collateralized by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable or other business assets, the liquidation of collateral in the event of a borrower default may be an insufficient source of repayment, because accounts receivable may be uncollectible and inventories and equipment may be obsolete or of limited use. Accordingly, the repayment of a commercial and industrial loan or lease primarily depends on the credit-worthiness of the borrower and guarantors, while the liquidation of collateral is a secondary and potentially insufficient source of repayment. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the management of the business and the credit-worthiness of borrowers and guarantors.
Other. The Company originates other loans, which include unsecured consumer loans and other small balance business and consumer loans. Other consumer loans generally have shorter terms to maturity than mortgage loans. Other consumer loans generally
involve a greater degree of risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured. In such cases, it is not possible to repossess collateral for a defaulted consumer loan and as such there may not exist an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the absence of security. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by adhering to its underwriting policies in evaluating the credit-worthiness of the borrower.

The interest income recognized during the periods of impairment is insignificant for those loans and leases impaired at June 30, 20162019 or 20152018. At June 30, 20162019 and 20152018, there were no loans or leases still accruing past due 90 days or more, unless the Company received principal and interest from the servicer despite the borrower’s delinquency. Cash receipts for loans and leases impaired is recorded against principal. The Company considers the servicer’s recovery of such advances in evaluating whether such loans should continue to accrue. A loan or lease is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan or lease agreement. Factors that we consider in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans or leases that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan or lease’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if repayment of the loan or lease is expected from the sale of collateral.
The Company has allocated $1 and $2 of the allowance to customers whose loans have been restructured and were determined to be TDRs as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company does not have any commitments to fund TDR loans at June 30, 2016.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. We areThe Company is committed to maintaining the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level that is considered to be commensurate with estimated probable incurred credit losses in the portfolio. Although the adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly, management performs an ongoing assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio. While the Company believes that the allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate at June 30, 20162019, future additions to the allowance will be subject to continuing evaluation of estimated and known, as well as inherent, risks in the loan and lease portfolio.
Allowance for Credit Loss Disclosures. The assessment of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses is based upon a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including levels and trends of past due and nonaccrual loans, changes in the volume and mix of loans, collateral values and charge-off history.
The allowance for loan loss for the auto and RV loan portfolio at June 30, 2016 was determined by classifying each outstanding loan according to the original FICO score and providing loss rates. The Company had $73,398 of auto and RV loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: FICO score greater than or equal to 770: $26,367; 715 – 769: $26,731; 700 – 714: $8,404; 660 – 699: $9,887 and less than 660: $2,009.
The Company provides general loan loss reserves for mortgage loans based upon the size and class of the mortgage loan and the LTV at date of origination. The allowance for each class is determined by dividing the outstanding unpaid balance for each loan by the LTV and applying a loss rate. At June 30, 2016, the LTV groupings for each significant mortgage class were as follows:
The Company had $3,649,910 of single family mortgage portfolio loan balances subject to general reserves as follows:
LTV less than or equal to 60%: $1,934,078; 61% – 70%: $1,364,246; 71% – 80%: $351,384 and greater than 80%: $202.
The Company had $1,370,998 of multifamily mortgage portfolio loan balances subject to general reserves as follows: LTV less than or equal to 55%: $626,504; 56% – 65%: $439,626; 66% – 75%: $290,844; 76% – 80%: $14,024 and greater than 80%: $0. Based on historical performance, the Company divides the LTV analysis into two classes, separating purchased loans from the loans underwritten directly by the Company since multifamilymortgage loans originated by the Company experience lower estimated loss rates.
The Company originates and purchases mortgage loans with terms that may include repayments that are less than the repayments for fully amortizing loans, including interest only loans, option adjustable-rate mortgages, and other loan types that permit payments that may be smaller than interest accruals. The Companies lending guidelines for interest only loans are adjusted for the increased credit risk associated with these loans by requiring borrowers with such loans to borrow at LTVs that are lower than standard amortizing ARM loans and by calculating debt to income ratios for qualifying borrowers based upon a fully amortizing payment, not the interest only payment. The Company’s Credit Committee monitors and performs reviews of interest only loans. Adverse trends reflected in the Company’s delinquency statistics, grading and classification of interest only loans would be reported to management and the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had $838.2 million of interest only loans and $3.0 million of option adjustable-rate mortgage loans. Through June 30, 2016, the net amount of deferred interest on these loan types was not material to the financial position or operating results of the Company.
The Company provides general loan loss reserves for its auto and RV loans based upon the borrower’s credit score at the time of origination and the Company’s loss experience to date. The Company obtains updated credit scores for its auto and RV borrowers approximately every six months. The updated credit score will result in a higher or lower general loan loss allowance depending on the change in borrowers’ FICO scores and the resulting shift in loan balances among the five FICO bands from which the Company measures and calculates its reserves. For the general loss reserve, the Company does not use individually updated credit scores or valuations for the real estate collateralizing its real estate loans, but does recalculateloans.

The increase in non-performing loans and leases as a percentage of total loans and leases is primarily the result of three single family residential loans that were placed on non-performing status during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, partially offset by improved performance by multifamily and commercial real estate secured loans. Approximately 9.63%1.29% of our non-performingnonaccrual loans and leases at June 30, 20162019 were considered TDRs, compared to 16.08%3.30% at June 30, 2015.2018. Borrowers who make timely payments after TDRs are considered non-performing for at least six months.
Generally, after six months of timely payments, those TDRs are reclassified from the non-performingnonaccrual loan and lease category to performing and any previously deferred interest income is recognized.return to accrual status. Approximately 89.14%94.97% of the Bank’s non-performingnonaccrual loans and leases are single family first mortgages already written down to 53.19%44.94% in aggregate, of the original appraisal value of the underlying properties. Generally these loans have experienced longer delays completing the foreclosure process due to the poor servicing practices of one of our seller servicers.

Credit Quality Indicators. The Company categorizes loans and leases into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans and leases individually by classifying the loans and leases as to credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings.
Pass. Loans and leases classified as pass are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner.
Special Mention. Loans and leases classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or lease or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard. Loans and leases classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans and leases so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful. Loans and leases classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
The Company reviews and grades loans and leases following a continuous loan and lease review process, featuring coverage of all loan and lease types and business lines at least quarterly. Continuous reviewing provides more effective risk monitoring because it immediately tests for potential impacts caused by changes in personnel, policy, products or underwriting standards.
The following tables present the composition of our loan and lease portfolio by credit quality indicator as of the dates indicated:

The Company is subject to federal income tax and income tax of state taxing authorities. The Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended June 30, 20132016, 20142017, and 20152018 and its state taxing authorities income tax returns for the years ended June 30, 20122015, 20132016, 20142017 and 20152018 are open to audit under the statutes of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
As a result of legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) that was enacted on December 22, 2017, during the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company revised its estimated annual effective rate to reflect a change in the federal statutory rate from 35.0% to 21.0%. The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code that affect the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, including reducing the U.S. federal corporate statutory tax rate to 21.0% beginning January 1, 2018, which results in a blended federal corporate statutory tax rate of 28.1% for the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 that is based on the applicable tax rates before and after the Tax Act and the number of days in the fiscal year.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company revalued the deferred tax balance to reflect the new corporate tax rate, which resulted in a decrease in net deferred tax assets of $9,189. As a result, income tax expense reported for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was adjusted to reflect the effects of the change in the tax law and the application of the newly enacted rates to existing deferred balances.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 the Company acquired COR Securities Holdings. The Company recognized a deferred tax liability of $2.2 million. The ending COR Securities Holding deferred tax liability for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 has been updated to reflect activity since the acquisition.
Additionally, the Company received tax credits for the year ended June 30, 2019. These tax credits reduced the effective tax rate by approximately 1.55%.

Effective July 1, 2017 the Company entered into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer (the “Agreement”) that authorizes an award of restricted stock units (the “RSU award”). The RSU award is an equity-based award and carries a service condition and a market condition that incorporates a measurement of the Company’s total stock return to shareholders in comparison to the total stock return of the ABA Nasdaq Community Bank Index. The accounting grant date of the RSU award is July 1, 2017 and expensing of the RSU award began on this date at the fair value measurement amount as determined by the Company’s valuation process. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the value of path-dependent options and determined the fair value using an expected return based on the 5-year US Treasury constant maturity rate, an equity volatility based on 6-month and 1-year historical daily trading history, market capitalization, and stock price for the RSU award. As of July 1, 2017, the estimated fair value of the RSU award was $20.5 million, which vests in five tranches over a total period of nine years. Unrecognized compensation expense to be expensed over the remaining seven years related to the non-vested RSU award is $11.6 million at June 30, 2019 and is included in the table below. The actual RSU award in future years is determined by the actual performance of Company’s total stock return in comparison to the total stock return of the ABA Nasdaq Community Bank Index.

The income tax benefit was $4,509, $2,746$6,351, $7,429 and $1,771,$6,119, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense based upon the grant-date fair value divided by the vesting and the service period between each vesting date. At June 30, 2016, expense related to stock option grants has been fully recognized.

15.18. OFF-BALANCE-SHEET ACTIVITIES
Credit-Related Financial Instruments. The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
At June 30, 2016, we2019, the Company had fixed and variable rate commitments to originate or purchase loans and leases with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $161,663$65,768 and $175,801$687,078 for total commitments to originate of $337,464.$752,846. For June 30, 2016, our2019, the Company’s fixed rate commitments to originate had a weighted-average rate of 3.59%3.92%. For June 30, 2015, we2018, the Company had fixed and variable rate commitments to originate or purchase loans and leases with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $68,030$86,453 and $143,995$720,582 for total commitments to originate of $212,025.$785,980. For June 30, 2015, our2018, the Company’s fixed rate commitments to originate had a weighted average rate of 3.81%4.68%. At June 30, 2016, we2019, the Company also had fixed and variable rate commitments to sell loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $134,114$92,320 and $2,312$1,897 for total commitments to sell of $136,426.$94,217. For June 30, 2015, we2018, the Company had fixed and variable rate commitments to sell of $77,188$86,453 and $11,446$1,131 for total commitments to sell of $88,634.$87,584. At June 30, 20162019 and 2015, 85.7%2018, 66.1% and 64.8%61.9% of the commitments to originate loans are matched with commitments to sell related to conforming single family loans classified as held for sale, respectively.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer so long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
In the normal course of business, Axos Clearing’s customer activities involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various customer securities transactions. These activities may expose Axos Clearing to off-balance-sheet risk in the event the customer or other broker is unable to fulfill its contracted obligations and Axos Clearing has to purchase or sell the financial instrument underlying the contract at a loss. Axos Clearing’s clearing agreements with broker-dealers for which it provides clearing services requires them to indemnify Axos Clearing if customers fail to satisfy their contractual obligation. As of June 30, 2019, non-customer and customer margin securities of approximately $441,081 and stock borrowings of approximately $144,706 were available to the Company to utilize as collateral on various borrowings or for other purposes. The Company utilized $198,356 of these available securities as collateral for securities loaned, $154,994 for bank loans, and $5,750 for OCC margin requirements.
16.19. MINIMUM REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital adequacy requirements promulgated by federal bank regulatory agencies. Failure by the Company or Bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements for the Company and the OCC has similar requirements for the Bank. The following tables present regulatory capital information for the Company and Bank. Information presented for June 30, 2016,2019, reflects the Basel III capital requirements that became effective January 1, 2015 for both the Company and Bank. Under these capital requirements and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation require the Company and Bank to maintain certain minimum capital
amounts and ratios. Federal bank regulators require the Company and Bank maintain minimum ratios of core capital to adjusted average assets of 4.0%, common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%, tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0% and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Company and Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Company and Bank were “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be “well capitalized,” the Company and Bank must maintain minimum leverage, common equity tier 1 risk-based, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0%, 6.5%, 8.0% and 10.0%, respectively. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since June 30, 20162019 that would materially adversely change the Company’s and Bank’s capital classifications. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support the Company’s and Bank’s further growth and to maintain their “well capitalized” status.
The Bank’s capital amounts, capital ratios and capital requirements under Basel III were as follows:

Beginning January 1, 2016, Basel III implements a requirement for all banking organizations to maintain a capital conservation buffer above the minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid certain limitations on capital distributions, stock repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer will be exclusively composed of common equity tier 1 capital, and it applies to each of the three risk-based capital ratios but not the leverage ratio. At June 30, 2016,2019, the Company and Bank are in compliance with the capital conservation buffer requirement. The three risk-basedfinal provision related to this follows implements a new capital ratios will increase by 0.625% each year through 2019, at which point, theconservation buffer requirement for a banking organization to maintain a common equity tiercapital ratio more than 2.5% above the minimum common equity Tier 1 risk based, tiercapital, Tier 1 risk-basedcapital and total risk-based capital ratios will bein order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments. The capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in, beginning on January 1, 2016 at 0.625%, with additional 0.625% percent increments annually, and became fully phased in at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. Inclusive of the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer, the common equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratio minimums are 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively.

The operating segments reported below are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which segment results are evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates through two operating segments: Banking Business and Securities Business.
The Banking Business includes a broad range of banking services including online banking, concierge banking, prepaid card services, and mortgage, vehicle and unsecured lending through online and telephonic distribution channels to serve the needs of consumer and small businesses nationally. In addition, the Banking Business focuses on providing deposit products nationwide to industry verticals (e.g., Title and Escrow), cash management products to a variety of businesses, and commercial & industrial and commercial real estate lending to clients. The Banking Business also includes a bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary service that provides specialized software and consulting services to Chapter 7 bankruptcy and non-Chapter 7 trustees and fiduciaries.
The Securities Business includes the Clearing Broker-Dealer, Registered Investment Advisor, and Introducing Broker-Dealer lines of businesses. These lines of business offer products such as clearing and execution of securities transactions, margin lending to correspondents and their customers, and lending proprietary and conduit securities independently to their own customers as well as to Banking Business clients. The products offered by the lines of business in the Securities Business primarily generate net interest and non-banking service fee income.
There are no material inter-segment sales or transfers. The accounting policies used by each reportable segment are the same as those discussed in Note 1. All costs, except certain corporate administration costs and income taxes, have been allocated to the reportable segments. Therefore, combined amounts agree to the consolidated totals.
In order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, the Company includes parent-only activities and intercompany eliminations. The following tables present the operating results, goodwill, and assets of the segments:
