NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bank of Marin Bancorp (“Bancorp”), a bank holding company, and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Bank of Marin (the “Bank”), a California state-chartered commercial bank. References to “we,” “our,” “us” mean Bancorp and the Bank that are consolidated for financial reporting purposes. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. Certain items in prior financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation, including the reclassification of the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments in the second quarter of 2021 from non-interest expense to a separate line item under the provision for credit losses on loans in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Although we believe that the disclosures are adequate and the information presented is not misleading, we suggest that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  In the opinion of Management,management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, the results of operations, changes in comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the periods presented. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The results of these interim periods may not be indicative of the results for the full year or for any other period.

The NorCal Community Bancorp Trust II (the "Trust") was formed for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities. Bancorp is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Trust (a variable interest entity), therefore the Trust is not consolidated in our consolidated financial statements, but rather the subordinated debenture is shown as a liability on our consolidated statements of condition. Bancorp's investment in the securities of the Trust is accounted for under the equity method and is included in interest receivable and other assets on the consolidated statements of condition. Refer to Note 6, Borrowings, for additional information on the subordinated debenture due to NorCal Community Bancorp Trust II.II and the early redemption that occurred on March 15, 2021.
 
The following table shows: 1) weighted average basic shares, 2) potentially dilutive weighted average common shares related to stock options and unvested restricted stock awards, and 3) weighted average diluted shares. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, excluding unvested restricted stock awards. Diluted EPS are calculated using the weighted average number of potentially dilutive common shares. The number of potentially dilutive common shares included in the quarterly diluted EPS is computed using the average market prices during the three months included in the reporting period under the treasury stock method. The number of potentially dilutive common shares included in year-to-date diluted EPS is a year-to-date weighted average of potentially dilutive common shares included in each quarterly diluted EPS computation. In computing diluted EPS, we exclude anti-dilutive shares such as options whose exercise prices exceed the current common stock price, as they would not reduce EPS under the treasury method. We have two forms of outstanding common stock: common stock and unvested restricted stock awards. Holders of unvested restricted stock awards receive non-forfeitable dividends at the same rate as common shareholders and they both share equally in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, the difference in EPS is nominal for these participating securities.

Note 2: Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Adopted in 20202021

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this ASU remove, modify, and add disclosure requirements for the fair value reporting of assets and liabilities. The modifications and additions relate to Level 3 fair value measurements at the end of the reporting period. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities should disclose and describe the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this ASU prospectively effective January 1, 2020. As the ASU’s requirements only relate to disclosures, the amendments did not impact our financial condition or results of operations. Refer to Note 3, Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities, for additional disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This standard aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software regardless of whether they convey a license to the hosted software. The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by this ASU. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity has the option to apply amendments in the ASU either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. We adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2020, which did not impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The standard will replace today's "incurred loss" model with a "current expected credit loss" ("CECL") model. The CECL model applies to estimated credit losses on loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, unfunded loan commitments, and certain other financial assets measured at amortized cost. The CECL model is based on lifetime expected losses, rather than incurred losses, and requires the recognition of credit loss expense in the consolidated statement of income and a related allowance for credit losses on the consolidated statement of condition at the time of origination or purchase of a loan receivable or held-to-maturity debt security. In addition, the CECL standard modifies the accounting for purchased loans and requires that an allowance for credit losses be established at the date of acquisition. However, for purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”) that are measured at amortized cost, the initial allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price rather than being reported as a credit loss expense. Subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses on PCD assets are recognized through credit loss expense.

Under ASU 2016-13, available-for-sale debt securities are evaluated for impairment if fair value is less than amortized cost. Estimated credit losses are recorded through a credit loss expense and an allowance, rather than a write-down of the investment. Changes in fair value that are not credit-related will continue to be recorded in other comprehensive income. The ASU also expands the disclosure requirements regarding assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for credit losses. In addition, entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, in accordance with the accounting relief provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act passed in March 2020, we postponed the adoption of the CECL standard. Implementation may be delayed until the end of the national emergency or December 31, 2020, whichever occurs first. Had we adopted the CECL standard as of January 1, 2020, the increase to our allowance for loan losses would have ranged from 5% to 15% of the amount recorded at December 31, 2019, which were based on economic forecasts at that time and did not include the subsequent COVID-19 pandemic related impact.

Early CECL implementation activities focused on, among other things, capturing and validating data, segmenting the loan portfolio, evaluating various credit loss estimation methodologies, sourcing tools to forecast future economic conditions, running multiple loan loss driver analyses that correlate our credit loss experience with one or more economic factors, and evaluating the qualitative factor framework and assumptions. Based on these activities, we determined that our primary credit loss methodology will utilize a discounted cash flow approach that
Page-8


considers the probability of default and loss given default. Ongoing implementation activities include developing forecasts, running parallel calculations, evaluating results, and continuing model validation.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments that clarifies and improves areas of guidance related to recently issued standards. The provisions of this ASU under Topic 326 will be evaluated in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-13, however, we do not expect it to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. All other provisions under this ASU were adopted as of January 1, 2020 and did not impact our financial condition and results of operations.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU allows an option for entities to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible financial assets measured at amortized cost basis upon adoption of the credit loss standards. This amendment provides relief for those entities electing the fair value option on newly originated or purchased financial assets, while maintaining existing similar financial assets at amortized cost, avoiding the requirement to maintain dual measurement methods for similar assets. The fair value option does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities. The effective date for this ASU is the same as for ASU 2016-13, as discussed above. We will evaluate this ASU in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to determine its impact on our financial condition and results of operations. However, at this time we do not expect to elect the fair value option for our financial assets.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. This ASU, among other narrow-scope improvements, clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries. “Expected recoveries” describes a situation in which an organization recognizes a full or partial write-off of the amortized cost basis of a financial asset, but then later determines that the amount written off, or a portion of that amount, will in fact be recovered. This ASU permits organizations to record expected recoveries on PCD assets. Additionally, this ASU reinforces existing guidance that prohibits organizations from recording negative allowances for available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2019-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied on a modified retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance in the statement of financial position as of the date of adoption. The effective date for this ASU is the same as for ASU 2016-13, as discussed above. We will evaluate this ASU in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to determine its impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic(ASC Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASU is intended to reduce the cost and complexity related to accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the guidance in TopicASC 740 related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and simplifying aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. AsWe adopted this ASU is narrow in scope and applicability to us will likely be minimal, we doprospectively on January 1, 2021, which did not expect that the ASU will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic(ASC Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic(ASC Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic(ASC Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between TopicASC 321, TopicASC 323, and TopicASC 815. Among other things, this ASU clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under TopicASC 323, for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with TopicASC 321. ThisWe adopted this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. ASU No. 2020-01 should be applied prospectively at the beginning of the interim period that includes adoption. We doon January 1, 2021, which did not expect that the ASU will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-08, Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. This ASU was issued as part of the Board's ongoing project to improve codification or correct unintended application. This ASU adds clarification to ASU 2017-08, which the Bank early-adopted in 2017, and delineates whether an entity with callable debt securities that have multiple call dates should amortize the amount above that which is repayable, to the next call date. We adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2021. Because this ASU was narrow in scope and for clarification purposes, it did not have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The amendments in this ASU are elective and provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden inof accounting for, (oror recognizing the effects of)of reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued

because of reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU may be elected as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may choose to elect the amendments in this update at an interim period subsequent to March 12, 2020 with adoption methods varying based on transaction type. We have not elected to apply these amendments. However, weamendments at this time, however, will assess the applicability of thethis ASU to us andas we continue to monitor guidance for reference rate reform from FASB and its impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The main amendments in this ASU are intended to clarify certain optional expedients and scope of derivative instruments. The amendments are elective and effective immediately upon issuance of this ASU. Amendments may be elected through December 31, 2022. We have not elected to apply amendments at this time, however, will assess the applicability of this ASU to us as we continue to monitor guidance for reference rate reform from FASB and its impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Note 3:  Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
 
Fair Value Hierarchy and Fair Value Measurement
 
We group our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in three levels within the fair value hierarchy, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:
 
Level 1: Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2: Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3: Valuations are based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Values are determined using pricing models and discounted cash flow models and may include significant Managementmanagement judgment and estimation.

The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities that were required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. When available, quoted market prices (Level 1) are used to determine the fair value of available-for-sale securities. If quoted market prices are not available, we obtain pricing information from a reputable third-party service provider, who may utilize valuation
Page-10


techniques that use current market-based or independently sourced parameters, such as bid/ask prices, dealer-quoted prices, interest rates, benchmark yield curves, prepayment speeds, probability of default, loss severity and credit spreads (Level 2).   Level 2 securities include obligations of state and political subdivisions, U.S. agencies or government-sponsored agencies' debt securities, mortgage-backed securities, government agency-issued, privately-issued collateralized mortgage obligations, and corporate bonds. As of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, there were 0 Level 1 or Level 3 securities.

Held-to-maturity securities may be written down to fair value as a result of other-than-temporary impairment and wethrough a provision for credit losses in investments securities. We did 0t record any write-downs during the six months ended June 30, 20202021 or June 30, 2019.2020. Fair value of held-to-maturity securities is determined using the same techniques discussed above for available-for-sale securities.
 
On a recurring basis, derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value, which is based on the income approach using observable Level 2 market inputs, reflecting market expectations of future interest rates as of the measurement date.  Standard valuation techniques are used to calculate the present value of the future expected cash flows assuming an orderly transaction.  Valuation adjustments may be made to reflect both our own credit risk and the counterparties’ credit risk in determining the fair value of the derivatives. Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to observable market prices for London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and Overnight Index Swap ("OIS") rates (for the very short term), quoted prices for LIBOR futures contracts, observable market prices for LIBOR and OIS swap rates, and one-month and three-month LIBOR basis spreads at commonly quoted intervals.  Mid-market pricing of the inputs is used as a practical expedient in the fair value measurements.  We project spot rates at reset days specified by each swap contract to determine future cash flows, then discount to present value using OIS curves as of the measurement date.  When the value of any collateral placed with counterparties is less than the interest rate derivative liability, a credit valuation adjustment ("CVA") is applied to reflect the credit risk we pose to counterparties.  We have used the spread between the Standard & Poor's BBB rated U.S. Bank Composite rate and LIBOR for the closest maturity term corresponding to the duration of the swaps to derive the CVA. A similar credit risk adjustment, correlated to the credit standing of the counterparty, is made when collateral posted by the counterparty does not fully cover their liability to us. For further discussion on our methodology in valuing our derivative financial instruments, refer to Note 9, Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities.

Certain financial assets may be measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are subject to fair value adjustments that result from the application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets, such as impaired loans that are collateral dependent and other real estate owned ("OREO"). As of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, we did 0t carry any assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The table below is a summary of fair value estimates for financial instruments as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, excluding financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (summarized in the first table in this note). The carrying amounts in the following table are recorded in the consolidated statements of condition under the indicated captions. Further, we have not disclosed the fair value of financial instruments specifically excluded from disclosure requirements such as bank-owned life insurance policies ("BOLI") and non-maturity deposit liabilities. Additionally, we held shares of Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of San Francisco stock and Visa Inc. Class B common stock, both recorded at cost, as there was no impairment or changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer as of June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020. The values are discussed in Note 4, Investment Securities.

Fair value of loans is based on exit price techniques and obtained from an independent third-party that uses its proprietary valuation model and methodology and may not reflect actual or prospective market valuations. The

discounted cash flow valuation approach reflects key inputs and assumptions such as loan probability of default, loss given default, prepayment speed, and market discount rates.
Fair value of fixed-rate time deposits is estimated by discounting future contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect the current market rates offered for time deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Fair value of the subordinated debenture is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach based on current interest rates for similar financial instruments adjusted for credit and liquidity spreads.

The value of unrecognized financial instruments is estimated based on the fee income associated with the commitments which, in the absence of credit exposure, is considered to approximate their settlement value. The fair value of commitment fees was not material as of June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.2020.

As of June 30, 2020,2021, the investment portfolio included 54 investment securities that had been in a continuous loss position for twelve months or more and 219 investment securities that had been in a loss position for less than twelve months.

Securities issued by government-sponsored agencies, such as FNMA and FHLMC, usually have implicit credit support by the U.S. federal government. However, since 2008, FNMA and FHLMC have been under government conservatorship and, therefore, contractual cash flows for these investments carry explicit guarantees by the U.S. federal government. Securities issued by the SBA and GNMA have explicit credit guarantees by the U.S. federal government, which protects us from credit losses on the contractual cash flows of the securities.

We routinely perform internal analyses of latest financial information of the issuers ofOur investment in obligations of state and political subdivisions theirbonds are deemed credit worthy after our comprehensive analysis of the issuers' latest financial information, credit ratings by major credit agencies, and/or credit enhancements. Based on our comprehensive analyses, we determined that the decline in the fair values of obligations of state and political subdivisions and corporate bonds as of December 31, 2019 were primarily driven by factors other than credit, such as changes in market interest rates and liquidity spreads subsequent to purchase.
At June 30, 2020, Management2021, management determined that it did not intend to sell any investment securities with unrealized losses, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell securities with unrealized losses before recovery of their amortized cost.

Non-Marketable Securities Included in Other Assets

FHLB Capital Stock

As a member of the FHLB, we are required to maintain a minimum investment in FHLB capital stock determined by the Board of Directors of the FHLB. The minimum investment requirements can increase in the event we increase our total asset size or borrowings with the FHLB. Shares cannot be purchased or sold except between the FHLB and its members at the $100 per share par value. We held $11.9 million and $11.7 million of FHLB stock included in other assets on the consolidated statements of condition at both June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019, respectively.2020. The carrying amounts of these investments are reasonable estimates of fair value because the securities are restricted to member banks and they do not have a readily determinable market value. Based on our analysis of FHLB's financial condition and certain qualitative factors, we determined that the FHLB stock was not impaired at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020. On July 23, 2020,29, 2021, FHLB announced a cash dividend for the second quarter of 20202021 at an annualized dividend rate of 5.00%6.00% to be distributed in mid-August 2020.2021. Cash dividends paid on FHLB capital stock are recorded as non-interest income.

VISA Inc. Class B Common Stock

As a member bank of Visa U.S.A., we held 10,439 shares of Visa Inc. Class B common stock at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020. These shares have a carrying value of 0 and are restricted from resale to non-member banks of Visa U.S.A. until their conversion into Class A (voting) shares upon the termination of Visa Inc.'s Covered Litigation escrow account. Because of the restriction and the uncertainty on the conversion rate to Class A shares, these shares lack a readily determinable fair value. When converting this Class B common stock to Class A common stock based on the estimated conversion rate of 1.6228 both at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, and the closing stock price of Class A shares at those respective dates, the converted value of our shares of Class B common stock would have been $3.3$4.0 million and $3.2$3.7 million at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. The conversion rate is subject to further adjustment upon the final settlement of the covered litigation
Page-14


against Visa Inc. and its member banks. As such, the fair value of these Class B shares can differ significantly from their converted values. For further information, refer to Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies.

Low Income Housing Tax Credits

We invest in low-income housing tax credit funds as a limited partner, which totaled $3.8$3.3 million and $4.1$3.5 million recorded in other assets as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. In the first six months of 2020,2021, we recognized $327$323 thousand of low-income housing tax credits and other tax benefits, offset by $275$271 thousand of amortization expense of low-income housing tax credit investment, as a component of income tax expense. As of June 30, 2020,2021, our unfunded commitments for these low-income housing tax credit funds totaled $886$474 thousand. We did 0t recognize any impairment losses on these low-income housing tax credit investments during the first six months of 20202021 or 2019,2020, as the value of the future tax benefits exceeds the carrying value of the investments.

Note 5:  Loans and Allowance for LoanCredit Losses on Loans

Credit QualityUnder the accounting relief provisions of Loansthe Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act passed in March 2020, we postponed the adoption of the CECL standard from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Upon adoption we used a modified retrospective method effective October 1, 2020 (the beginning of the first reporting period in which the standard was effective due to the postponement of CECL) through a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. The cumulative adjustment to retained earnings was recorded, net of taxes, based on economic forecasts and other assumptions as of December 31, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after September 30, 2020 have been presented under the new standard while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. Certain prior period credit quality disclosures related to impaired loans and individually and collectively evaluated loans were superseded with the CECL accounting standards and have not been included below. Refer to Notes 1 and 3 under Part II, Item 8, of our 2020 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the adoption of CECL. In addition, refer to Note 5 under Part I, Item 1, of our June 30, 2020 Form 10-Q for prior period information.

WeLending Risks

Commercial and Industrial Loans - Commercial loans are generally make commercial loansmade to established small and mid-sized businesses to provide financing for their growth and working capital needs, equipment purchases and acquisitions.  Management examines historical, current, and projected cash flows to determine the ability of the borrower to repay obligations as agreed. Commercial loans are made based primarily on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral and guarantor support. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not occur as expected, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by the assets being financed, such as accounts receivable and inventory, and typically include personal guarantees. We target stable businesses with guarantors who provide additional sources of repayment and have proven to be resilient in periods of economic stress.  A weakened

Pursuant toeconomy, and resultant decreased consumer and/or business spending, may have an effect on the CARES Act, oncredit quality of commercial loans.
In April 6, 2020, the Bank began accepting applications from eligible small businesses and non-profit organizations to participateparticipating in the Small Business Administration's ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”("PPP") administered by. As of June 30, 2021, there were 1,532 PPP loans outstanding. PPP loans totaling $248.3 million (net of $6.5 million in unrecognized fees and costs) and $291.6 million (net of $5.4 million in unrecognized fees and costs) as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, were included in commercial and industrial loan balances. Of the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”).1,532 PPP loans outstanding as of June 30, 2021, 1,060 loans totaling $136.0 million were funded during the first half of 2021 under the second round of the PPP stimulus plan. PPP loans have terms of two to five years and earn interest at 1%. In addition, the SBA paid the Bank receives a fee of 1%-5% from the SBA depending on the loan amount, which iswas netted with loan origination costs and accreted/amortized into interest income using the effective yield method over the contractual life of theeach loan. The recognition of fees/fees and costs is accelerated when the SBA forgives the loan and/or the loan is forgiven by the SBA and/or paid off prior to maturity. PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA and are expectedhave virtually no risk of loss. We expect the vast majority of the PPP loans to be fully forgiven by the SBA if they meet the requirements of the program. PPP loans totaling $298.9 million at June 30, 2020 are included in commercial and industrial loan balances. The Bank ended its origination of new PPP loans on June 30, 2020.SBA.

Commercial Real Estate Loans - Commercial real estate loans, which include income producing investment properties and owner-occupied real estate used for business purposes, are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial loans discussed above. We underwrite these loans to be repaid from cash flow and to be supported by real property collateral. Underwriting standards for commercial real estate loans include, but are not limited to, debt coverage and loan-to-value ratios. Furthermore, a large majority of our loans are guaranteed by the owners of the properties. Conditions in the real estate markets or downturn in the general economy may adversely affect our commercial real estate loans. In the event of a vacancy, we expect guarantors to carry the loans until they find a replacement tenant.  The owner's substantial equity investment provides a strong economic incentive to continue to support the commercial real estate projects. As such, we have generally experienced a relatively low level of loss and delinquencies in this portfolio.

Construction Loans - Construction loans are generally made to developers and builders to finance construction, renovation and occasionally land acquisitions in anticipation of near-term development. Construction loans include interest reserves that are used for the payment of interest during the development and marketing periods and are capitalized as part of the loan balance. When a construction loan is placed on nonaccrual status before the depletion of the
Page-16


interest reserve, we apply the interest funded by the interest reserve against the loan's principal balance. These loans are underwritten after evaluation of the borrower's financial strength, reputation, prior track record, and independent appraisals. We monitor all construction projects to determine whether they are on schedule, completed as planned and in accordance with the approved construction budgets. Significant events can affect the construction industry, including: the inherent volatility of real estate markets and vulnerability to delays due to weather, change orders, inability to obtain construction permits, labor or material shortages, and price changes. Estimates of construction costs and value associated with the completed project may be inaccurate. Repayment of construction loans is largely dependent on the ultimate success of the project.

Consumer Loans - Consumer loans primarily consist of home equity lines of credit, other residential loans and floating homes along with a small number of installment loans. Our other residential loans include tenancy-in-common fractional interest loans ("TIC") located almost entirely in San Francisco County. We originate consumer loans utilizing credit score information, debt-to-income ratio and loan-to-value ratio analysis. Diversification among consumer loan types, coupled with relatively small loan amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers, mitigates risk. We do not originate sub-prime residential mortgage loans, nor is it our practice to underwrite loans commonly referred to as "Alt-A mortgages," the characteristics of which are reduced documentation, borrowers with low FICO scores or collateral with high loan-to-value ratios.

Credit Quality Indicators
We use a risk rating system to evaluate asset quality, and to identify and monitor credit risk in individual loans, and in the loan portfolio. Our definitions of “Special Mention” risk graded loans, or worse, are consistent with those used by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").  Our internally assigned grades are as follows:
 
Pass and Watch: - Loans to borrowers of acceptable or better credit quality. Borrowers in this category demonstrate fundamentally sound financial positions, repayment capacity, credit history and management expertise.  Loans in this category must have an identifiable and stable source of repayment and meet the Bank’s policy regarding debt-service-coverage ratios.  These borrowers are capable of sustaining normal economic, market or operational setbacks without significant financial consequences.  Negative external industry factors are generally
Page-16


not present.  The loan may be secured, unsecured or supported by non-real estate collateral for which the value is more difficult to determine and/or marketability is more uncertain. This category also includes “Watch” loans, where the primary source of repayment has been delayed. “Watch” is intended to be a transitional grade, with either an upgrade or downgrade within a reasonable period.
 
Special Mention: - Potential weaknesses that deserve close attention. If left uncorrected, those potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the payment prospects for the asset. Special Mention assets do not present sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
 
Substandard:- Inadequately protected by either the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. A Substandard asset has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize(s) the liquidation of the debt. Substandard assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if such weaknesses or deficiencies are not corrected. Well-defined weaknesses include adverse trends or developments of the borrower’s financial condition, managerial weaknesses and/or significant collateral deficiencies.
 
Doubtful: - Critical weaknesses that make collection or liquidation in full improbable. There may be specific pending events that work to strengthen the asset; however, the amount or timing of the loss may not be determinable. Pending events generally occur within one year of the asset being classified as Doubtful. Examples include: merger, acquisition, or liquidation; capital injection; guarantee; perfecting liens on additional collateral; and refinancing. Such loans are placed on non-accrual status and usually are collateral-dependent.

We regularly review our credits for accuracy of risk grades whenever we receive new information. Borrowers are generally required to submit financial information at regular intervals. Typically, commercial borrowers with lines of credit are required to submit financial information with reporting intervals ranging from monthly to annually depending on credit size, risk and complexity. In addition, investor commercial real estate borrowers with loans exceeding a certain dollar threshold are usually required to submit rent rolls or property income statements annually. We monitor construction loans monthly. We review home equity and other consumer loans based on delinquency. We also review loans graded “Watch” or worse, regardless of loan type, no less than quarterly.

The following table represents an analysistables present the loan portfolio by loan class, origination year and internal risk rating as of the carrying amount in loans, net of deferred fees and costs and purchase premiums or discounts, by internally assigned risk grades, at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020. Generally, existing term loans that were re-underwritten are reflected in the table in the year of renewal. Lines of credit that have a conversion feature at the time of origination, such as construction to perm loans, are presented by year of origination.

Troubled Debt Restructuring
 
Our loan portfolio includes certain loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”), where we have granted economic concessions to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from our loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. TDRs on non-accrual status at the time of restructure may be returned to accruing status after Managementmanagement considers the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally nine months, and obtains reasonable assurance of repayment and performance.
 
We may remove a loan from TDR designation if it meets all of the following conditions:
Page-19


The loan is subsequently refinanced or restructured at current market interest rates and the new terms are consistent with the treatment of creditworthy borrowers under regular underwriting standards;
The borrower is no longer considered to be in financial difficulty;
Performance on the loan is reasonably assured; and
Existing loan did not have any forgiveness of principal or interest.

The same Management level that approved the loan classification upgrade must approve the removal of TDR status. There were 0 loans removed from TDR designation during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. There was 1 commercial loan with a recorded investment of $3 thousand removed from TDR designation during the six months ended June 30, 2019 after meeting all of the conditions above.

SectionIn accordance with section 4013 of the CARES Act, provided optional, temporary relief from evaluating loans that may have been considered TDRs under GAAP. This relief applies to loan modifications executed between March 1, 2020 and eithersubsequently amended by section 541 of the earlier of 60 days after the national emergency is terminated or December 31, 2020. The BankEconomic Aid Act, we elected to apply thesethe temporary accounting relief provisions for loan modifications that met certain criteria, which would otherwise be designated TDRs under existing GAAP. As of June 30, 2021, 7 borrowing relationships with 12 loans totaling $49.8 million were continuing to benefit from payment relief. Subsequent to quarter end and prior to the filing of this report, 1 relationship with 3 loans totaling $6.4 million transitioned out of the payment relief program and resumed normal contractual payments. The weighted average loan-to-value ratio of the remaining payment relief loans beginning in March 2020. As of July 10, 2020, the Bank approved over 260 loan modifications for full payment deferral or interest-only payments for up to 120 days on loan balances exceeding $386 million.was approximately 41%. We accrue and recognize interest income on loans under payment relief based on the original contractual interest rates. When payments resume at the end of the relief period, the payments will firstgenerally be applied to the accrued interest due and nothing will be applied to principal until the accrued interest is fully paid. We have been reaching out to each borrower before the expiration of the initial 120 day relief period to determine if additional short-term relief is necessary.

Dividends

On July 17, 2020,16, 2021, Bancorp declared a $0.23$0.24 per share cash dividend, payable on August 7, 20206, 2021 to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 31, 2020.30, 2021.

Share-Based Payments
 
The fair value of stock options as of the grant date is recorded as stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in common stock. Stock-based compensation also includes compensation expense related to the issuance of restricted stock awards. The grant-date fair value of the restricted stock awards, which equals the grant date price, is recorded as compensation expense over the requisite service period with a corresponding increase in common stock as the shares vest. Beginning in 2018, stock option and restricted stock awards issued include a retirement eligibility clause whereby the requisite service period is satisfied at the retirement eligibility date. For those awards, we accelerate the recording of stock-based compensation when the award holder is eligible to retire. However, retirement eligibility does not affect the vesting of restricted stock or the exercisability of the stock options, which are based on the scheduled vesting period.

Performance-based stock awards (restricted stock) are issued to a selected group of employees. Stock award vesting is contingent upon the achievement of pre-established long-term performance goals set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Performance is measured over a three-yearthree-year period and cliff vested. These performance-based stock awards were granted at a maximum opportunity level, and based on the achievement of the pre-established goals, the actual payouts can range from 0% to 200% of the target award. For performance-based stock awards, an estimate is made of the number of shares expected to vest based on the probability that the performance criteria will be achieved to determine the amount of compensation expense to be recognized. The estimate is re-evaluated quarterly and total compensation expense is adjusted for any change in the current period.
Page-22



We record excess tax benefits (deficiencies) resulting from the exercise of non-qualified stock options, the disqualifying disposition of incentive stock options and vesting of restricted stock awards as income tax benefits (expense) in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income with a corresponding decrease (increase) to current taxes payable.
 
The holders of unvested restricted stock awards are entitled to dividends on the same per-share ratio as holders of common stock. Tax benefits for dividends paid on unvested restricted stock awards are recorded as tax benefits in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income with a corresponding decrease to current taxes payable. Dividends on forfeited awards are included in stock-based compensation expense.

Stock options and restricted stock may be net settled in a cashless exercise by a reduction in the number of shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise or vesting in satisfaction of the exercise payment and/or applicable tax withholding requirements. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we withheld 27,547 shares totaling $1.1 million at a weighted-average price of $38.87 for cashless exercises. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we withheld 8,409 shares totaling $346 thousand at a weighted-average price of $41.17 for cashless exercises. During the six months ended June 30,

Note 8:  Commitments and Contingencies
 
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
 
We make commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of loans or through standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because various commitments will expire without being fully drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Page-23


 
Our credit loss exposure is equal to the contractual amount of the commitment in the event of nonperformance by the borrower. We use the same credit underwriting criteria for all credit exposure. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us, is based on Management'smanagement's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral types pledged may include accounts receivable, inventory, other personal property and real property.

The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheetunfunded commitments totaled $1.4$1.6 million and $1.1$2.8 million as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, which is recorded in interest payable and other liabilities in the consolidated statements of condition. We adopted the CECL accounting standard on December 31, 2020. We applied the incurred loss method under previous GAAP in determining the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020. We recorded reversals of the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments totaling $612 thousand and $1.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively. This compares to provisions for credit losses on unfunded commitments for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 totaling $260 thousand and $362 thousand, respectively. In the current period, we reclassified the provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments from non-interest expense to a separate line item under the provision for credit losses on loans in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Leases

We lease premises under long-term non-cancelable operating leases with remaining terms of 1 year to 1211 years, most of which include escalation clauses and one or more options to extend the lease term, and some of which contain lease termination clauses. Lease terms may include certain renewal options that were considered reasonably certain to be exercised.

We lease certain equipment under finance leases with initial terms of 3 years to 54 years. The equipment finance leases do not contain renewal options, bargain purchase options or residual value guarantees.

The following table shows the future minimum lease payments, weighted average remaining lease terms, and weighted average discount rates under operating and finance lease arrangements as of June 30, 2020. Total minimum lease payments do not include obligations of approximately $3.1 million for operating lease modifications related to 2 existing retail branches and an operating lease agreement for a new loan production office in San Mateo that commenced subsequent to June 30, 2020.2021. The discount rates used to calculate the present value of lease liabilities were based on the collateralized FHLB borrowing rates that were commensurate with lease terms and minimum payments on the later of the date we adopted the new lease accounting standards or lease commencement date.

Litigation Matters

Bancorp may be party to legal actions that arise from time to time in the normal course of business. Bancorp's Managementmanagement is not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which either it or the Bank may be a party or has recently been a party that will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of Bancorp or the Bank.

The Bank is responsible for a proportionate share of certain litigation indemnifications provided to Visa U.S.A. ("Visa") by its member banks in connection with Visa's lawsuits related to anti-trust charges and interchange fees ("Covered Litigation"). Our proportionate share of the litigation indemnification liability does not change or transfer upon the sale of our Class B Visa shares to member banks. Visa established an escrow account to pay for settlements or judgments in the Covered Litigation. Under the terms of the U.S. retrospective responsibility plan, when Visa funds the litigation escrow account, it triggers a conversion rate reduction of the Class B common stock
Page-25


to shares of Class A common stock, effectively reducing the aggregate value of the Class B common stock held by Visa's member banks like us.

In 2012, Visa had reached a $4.0 billion interchange multidistrict litigation class settlement agreement with plaintiffs representing a class of U.S. retailers. On September 17, 2018, Visa signed an amended settlement agreement with the putative class action plaintiffs of the U.S. interchange multidistrict litigation that superseded the 2012 settlement agreement. Visa's share of the settlement amount under the amended class settlement agreement increased to $4.1 billion. On September 27, 2019, Visa deposited an additional $300 million into the litigation escrow account. Certain merchants chose to opt out of the class settlement agreement and on December 13, 2019, the court entered the final judgment order approving the amended settlement agreement. On December 27, 2019, Visa received a takedown payment of approximately $467 million, which was deposited into the litigation escrow account with a corresponding increase in accrued litigation to address opt-out claims. The escrow balance of $1.1 billion$894 million as of June 30, 2020,2021, combined with funds previously deposited with the court, are expected to cover the settlement payment obligations.

The outcome of the Covered Litigation affects the conversion rate of Visa Class B common stock held by us to Visa Class A common stock, as discussed above and in Note 4, Investment Securities. The final conversion rate mightis subject to change depending on the final settlement payments, and the full effect on member banks is still uncertain. Litigation is ongoing and until the court approval process is complete, there is no assurance that Visa will resolve the claims
Page-26


as contemplated by the amended class settlement agreement, and additional lawsuits may arise from individual merchants who opted out of the class settlement. However, until the escrow account is fully depleted and the conversion rate of Class B to Class A common stock is reduced to zero, no future cash settlement payments are required by the member banks, such as us, on the Covered Litigation. Therefore, we are not required to record any contingent liabilities for the indemnification related to the Covered Litigation, as we consider the probability of losses to be remote.

Note 9: Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

We entered into interest rate swap agreements, primarily as an asset/liability management strategy, in order to mitigate the changes in the fair value of specified long-term fixed-rate loans (or firm commitments to enter into long-term fixed-rate loans) caused by changes in interest rates. These hedges allow us to offer long-term fixed-rate loans to customers without assuming the interest rate risk of a long-term asset. Converting our fixed-rate interest payments to floating-rate interest payments, generally benchmarked to the one-month U.S. dollar LIBOR index, protects us against changes in the fair value of our loans associated with fluctuating interest rates.

Our credit exposure, if any, on interest rate swap asset positions is limited to the fair value (net of any collateral pledged to us) and interest payments of all swaps by each counterparty. Conversely, when an interest rate swap is in a liability position exceeding a certain threshold, we may be required to post collateral to the counterparty in an amount determined by the agreements. Collateral levels are monitored and adjusted on a regular basis for changes in interest rate swap values.

As of June 30, 2020,2021, we had 54 interest rate swap agreements, which are scheduled to mature in June 2031, October 2031, July 2032, August 2037 and October 2037. All of our derivatives are accounted for as fair value hedges. The notional amounts of the interest rate contracts are equal to the notional amounts of the hedged loans. Our interest rate swap payments are settled monthly with counterparties. Accrued interest on the swaps totaled $13$10 thousand at June 30, 20202021 and $6$11 thousand at December 31, 2019.2020.

ITEM 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Management's discussion of the financial condition and results of operations, which is unaudited, should be read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q and with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Average balances, including balances used in calculating certain financial ratios, are generally comprised of average daily balances.
 
Forward-Looking Statements

This discussion of financial results includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "1933 Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "1934 Act"). Those sections of the 1933 Act and 1934 Act provide a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their financial performance so long as they provide meaningful, cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ significantly from projected results.
 
Our forward-looking statements include descriptions of plans or objectives of Managementmanagement for future operations, products or services, and forecasts of revenues, earnings or other measures of economic performance. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate" or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs preceded by "will," "would," "should," "could" or "may."
 
Forward-looking statements are based on Management'smanagement's current expectations regarding economic, legislative, and regulatory issues that may affect our earnings in future periods. A number of factors, many of which are beyond Management’smanagement’s control, could cause future results to vary materially from current Managementmanagement expectations. Such factors include, but are not limited to, natural disasters (such as wildfires and earthquakes), pandemics such as COVID-19 and the economic impact caused directly by the disease and by government responses thereto, general economic conditions and the economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad, including changes in interest rates, deposit flows, real estate values, and expected future cash flows on loans and securities; costs or effects of acquisitions, competition,acquisitions; competition; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines,guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation (including the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017 and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020, as amended),amended, and the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits and Venues Act of 2020); our borrowers’ actual payment performance as loan deferrals related to the COVID-19 pandemic expire, including the potential adverse impact of loan modifications and payment deferrals implemented consistent with recent regulatory guidance; natural disasters (such as wildfires and earthquakes in our area); adverse weather conditions; interruptions of utility service in our markets for sustained periods,periods; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors (including external fraud and cybersecurity threats) affecting Bancorp'sour operations, pricing, products and services.

In addition, events or factors that could cause results or performance to materially differ from those expressed in the forward-looking statements concerning the AMRB acquisition include, but are not limited to:
the businesses of Bancorp and AMRB may not be integrated successfully or such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected;
expected cost savings from the acquisition may not be fully realized or realized within the expected time frame;
revenues following the merger may be lower than expected;
customer and employee relationships and business operations may be disrupted by the acquisition; and
the ability to obtain required regulatory and shareholder approvals, and the ability to complete the acquisition within the expected timeframe may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected.

Important factors that could cause results or performance to materially differ from those expressed in our prior forward-looking statements are detailed in the Risk Factors section of this Form 10-Q and in Item 1A. Risk Factors section of our 20192020 Form 10-K as filed with the SEC, copies of which are available from us at no charge. These and other important factors are detailed in various securities law filings made periodically by Bancorp, copies of which are available from Bancorp without charge. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Bancorp undertakes no obligationWe do not undertake to release publicly the result of any revisions to theseupdate forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect circumstances or events or circumstancesthat occur after the date of this Form 10-Qthe forward-looking statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

CriticalThe SEC requires us to disclose "critical accounting policies arepolicies" defined as those that are both most important to the portrayalpresentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require Management'smanagement's most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a resultbecause of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and imprecise. We consider accounting estimates to be critical to our financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, (ii) management could have applied different assumptions during the reported period, and (iii) changes in the accounting estimate are reasonably likely to occur in the future and could have a material impact on our financial statements. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies, which include: Allowance for LoanCredit Losses Other-than-temporary Impairment of Investmenton Loans and Unfunded Commitments, Allowance for Credit Losses on Investments Securities, Accounting for Income Taxes, and Fair Value Measurements. For a detailed discussion of these accounting policies, refer to Note 1 toin the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 20192020 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2020 and Note 2, 15, 2021.Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. Under the accounting relief provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act, which was signed into law on March 27, 2020, the Bank postponed the adoption of the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standard until the earlier of the end of the national emergency or December 31, 2020 to focus on customers' needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the lack of clarity around the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic hindered the development of reasonable and supportable economic forecasts early in the pandemic.

Executive Summary
 
As previously reported, on April 16, 2021, Bancorp entered into a definitive agreement to acquire American River Bankshares ("AMRB"), parent company of American River Bank ("ARB"), whereby AMRB will merge with and into Bancorp and immediately thereafter ARB will merge with and into Bank of Marin (collectively, the "Merger"). We expect the transaction to be accretive to Bancorp's earnings, adding to shareholder value. AMRB shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.575 shares of Bancorp common stock for each share of AMRB common stock outstanding. Based on Bancorp's closing stock price of $39.06 on April 16, 2021 (date of merger agreement), the transaction was valued at $134.5 million (with approximately 3.4 million of additional shares of Bancorp common stock to be issued), or $22.46 per share of AMRB common stock, which includes the value of AMRB options being paid in cash. Such value will fluctuate with changes in Bancorp's stock price. Based on information currently available, Bank of Marin will have approximately $4.0 billion in assets and operate 31 branches in ten counties (Alameda, Amador, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, Placer, Sacramento, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Sonoma) upon closing. The merger has been approved by the Boards of Directors of each company, all applicable regulatory agencies and shareholders of AMRB and BMRC. The Merger is expected to close on August 6, 2021. For other important factors regarding the AMRB acquisition, please see Note 10, Merger Agreement, and the Forward-Looking Statements section of this Form 10-Q.

Net income for the second quarter of 20202021 totaled $7.4$9.3 million, compared to $8.2$7.4 million in the second quarter of 2019.2020.

The following are highlights of our operating and financial performance for the periods presented:
Loans totaled $2,110.2 million$2.003 billion at June 30, 2020,2021, compared to $1,843.3 million$2.089 billion at December 31, 2019, an increase2020, a decrease of $266.9 million, primarily due to SBA PPP loans, which totaled $298.9$85.8 million, or 14% of loan balances at June 30, 2020. During the4.1%. The first half of 2020, new non-PPP-related2021 included a $43.3 million net decrease in PPP loans. Non-PPP-related loan originations of $71.6$69.1 million were more than offset by $83.4 million in loan payoffs of $95.4 million and a $16.8$34.8 million decrease in line utilization.
In the first six months of 2020,Credit quality remained strong, with the onset of the pandemic, we identified industries within our loan portfolio that could be most impacted by the pandemic, including retail-related commercial real estate, retail businesses, transportation and energy, medical and dental, hospitality, health clubs and movie theaters, private schools, and the wine industry. Not including SBA PPPnon-accrual loans exposure to these segments totaled $429.8representing $9.2 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, or 20%0.46% and 0.44% of the loan portfolio, $365.7 million (or 85%) of which was real estate secured with an average loan-to-valuetotal loans, respectively.

Excluding acquired and SBA PPP loans, totaling $198.0 million or 9%the allowance for credit losses on loans represented 1.09% of the total portfolio, $184.8 million of which are secured by commercial real estate with an average loan-to-value ratio ("LTV") of 39%, and the majority are also backed by personal guarantees. The wine-industry exposure was $76.7 million, or 4% of the total portfolio, of which $42.1 million is real estate secured, education was $67.4 million, or 3% of the total portfolio, of which $63.0 million is secured by real estate, and hospitality was $48.1 million, of which $45.3 million is secured by real estate.
Asloans as of June 30, 2021, compared to 1.27% as of December 31, 2020 we had made $102.5 million in PPP loans to industries most impacted by the pandemic, the largest(see Results of which were in the medical and dental sector at $33.4 million, hospitality at $16.6 million, retail businesses at $16.3 million and education at $11.7 million. AsOperations for a definition of June 30, 2020, the Bank had originated $298.9 million (net of $8.1 million in deferred fees and costs) in SBA PPP loans to small businesses, the majority of which were our existing customers. Approximately 80% of these customers did not have loans outstanding with the Bank at the onset of the pandemic. We were able to assist 178 non-profit organizations, employing over 6,000 individuals, in receiving $57.4 million in PPP loans. Notably, 73% of the PPP loans were for $150 thousand or less, and almost 90% were $350 thousand or less. Only 48 loans were one million dollars or greater, representing approximately 30% of the total balance. We ended the origination of new PPP loans on June 30, 2020 to help our customers through the loan forgiveness process.
To provide immediate relief to our clients experiencing hardship, the Bank has granted payment relief on over 260 loans with balances exceeding $386 million, providing full payment deferral or interest-only payments for up to 120 days. Of the loans on payment relief, almost 50% fell into pandemic-impacted industries, the largest being retail-related commercial real estate at $69.7 million, hotels and motels at $36.9 million, and education-related commercial real estate at $25.3 million.

1 The allowance for loancredit losses on loans to total loans, excluding non-impaired non-PCI and guaranteed SBASBA-guaranteed PPP loans, is considered a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure, as it represents only those loans that were considered in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. Non-PCIcredit losses on loans. SBA PPP loans that were not impaired at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 totaled $95.6$248.3 million and $106.8$291.6 million, respectively. SBA PPP loans totaled $298.9 million at June 30, 2020. There were no SBA PPP loans as of December 31, 2019.
2 Tangible common equity to tangible assets is considered to be a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure of capital adequacy and is useful for investors to assess Bancorp's ability to absorb potential losses. Tangible common equity of $318$315 million and $302$324 million at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, includes common stock, retained earnings and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for sale securities, net of tax, less goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible assets exclude goodwill and intangible assets of $34.4$33.6 million and $34.8$34.0 million at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
3 Tax-equivalent net interest margin is computed by dividing taxable equivalent net interest income, which is adjusted for taxable equivalent income on tax-exempt loans and securities based on Federal statutory rate of 21 percent, by total average interest-earning assets.
4 Calculated as dividends on common shares divided by basic net income per common share.

Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income is the difference between the interest earned on loans, investmentsinvestment and other interest-earning assets andminus the interest expense incurred on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is impacted by changes in general market interest rates and by changes in the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate changes can create fluctuations in the net interest income and/or margin due to an imbalance in the timing of repricing and maturity of assets and liabilities. We manage interest rate risk exposure with the goal of minimizing the impact of interest rate volatility on net interest income. For more information, refer to Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk in this Form 10-Q.
 
Net interest margin is expressed as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Net interest rate spread is the difference between the average rate earned on total interest-earning assets and the average rate incurred on total interest-bearing liabilities. Both of these measures are reported on a taxable-equivalent basis. Net interest margin is the higher of the two because it reflects interest income earned on assets funded with non-interest-bearing sources of funds, which include demand deposits and stockholders’ equity.

Analysis of Changes in Tax-Equivalent Net Interest Income

The following table presents the effects of changes in average balances (volume) or changes in average rates on tax-equivalent net interest income for the yearsperiods indicated. Volume variances are equal to the increase or decrease in average balances multiplied by prior period rates. Rate variances are equal to the increase or decrease in rates multiplied by prior period average balances. Mix variances are attributable to the change in yields or rates multiplied by the change in average balances, including one more day in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Net interest income totaled $24.4$24.5 million in the second quarter of 2020,2021, compared to $23.8$24.4 million in the same quarter a year ago. The $586$159 thousand increase was primarily due to higher balances in most loan categories led byincome from SBA PPP loans, higher average investment securities and higher interest-earningcommercial real estate loan balances, with banks due to temporary increases in SBA PPP borrowers' deposit accounts. These increases were partially offset by the net effect of a full quarter ofand lower rates on interest-earning assetsinterest-bearing liabilities. Increases were mostly offset by lower yields on investment securities, and interest-bearing liabilities.lower average commercial, home equity, and other residential loan balances.

Net interest income totaled $48.5$46.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to $47.6$48.5 million in the same period a year ago. The $859 thousand increasedecrease was primarily dueattributed to $1.3 million in accelerated discount accretion from the early redemption of a subordinated debenture in the first quarter of 2021, lower yielding interest-earning assets, lower average balances of commercial and consumer loans, and one less day in the period. Decreases were partially offset by higher average loan and interest-earning cash balances driven byincome from SBA PPP loans and deposits. These increases were partially offset by the net effect ofhigher investment securities, commercial real estate, and construction loan balances, and lower rates on interest-earning assetsinterest-bearing liabilities. We recognized $4.3 million in SBA PPP fees, net of cost in the first six months of 2021, compared to $1.2 million in the first six months a year ago. As of June 30, 2021 $6.5 million PPP fees, net of deferred costs remain outstanding and interest-bearing liabilities for a full quarter.will be recognized into income in future periods.

Market Interest Rates

Market interest rates are, in part, based on the target federal funds interest rate (the interest rate banks charge each
other for short-term borrowings) implemented by the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee ("FOMC").

Page-34


In response to the evolving risks to economic activity posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee ("FOMC")FOMC made two emergency cuts totaling 150 basis points to the federal funds rate in March 2020. ThisThe federal funds target rate range has resided between 0.0% and 0.25% since March 15, 2020, putting downward pressure on our asset yields and net interest margin. A low interest rate environment will continue to put downward pressure on our asset yields and net interest margin. See ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk for further information.

Provision for LoanCredit Losses on Loans

Management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loancredit losses on loans quarterly based on several factors including growth of the loan portfolio, analysispast events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate expected losses over the contractual terms of probableour loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans is increased by provisions charged to expense and loss recoveries and decreased by loans charged off.

The following table shows the provision for credit losses activity for the periods presented.

(Reversal of) provision for credit losses on loans$(920)$2,000 $(3,849)$4,200 

The provision reversals in 2021 were primarily due to continued improvements in the forecasted California unemployment rates over the next four quarters and a $42.5 million year-to-date decrease in non-PPP loan balances. Our allowance model is particularly sensitive to current and forecasted California unemployment rates, which decreased to 8.0% at June 30, 2021 from 9.1% at December 31, 2020. The provision for credit losses in 2020 calculated under the portfolio, historicalincurred loss experience andmethod (prior to the current economic climate, includingadoption of the economic uncertaintiesexcepted credit loss method on December 31, 2020) was largely due to the uncertainty about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. While loss recoveriespandemic on the local and provisions for loan losses chargedregional economies and our customers at that time.

Loans designated special mention, which are not considered adversely classified, decreased by $37.9 million to expense increase the allowance, actual losses on loans reduce the allowance.
Impaired loan balances totaled $11.9$49.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $11.52021 from $86.9 million at December 31, 2019, with specific valuation allowances2020. The decrease was largely due to the upgrading of $434 thousandseveral borrowing relationships totaling approximately $25.5 million because of their improved financial condition, loan reductions and $397 thousand forpayoffs totaling approximately $16.4 million, and the same respective dates. Loans gradeddowngrade from special mention to substandard of one well-secured commercial real estate loan totaling $4.6 million. These decreases were partially offset by two well-secured commercial real estate loans totaling $8.8 million that were downgraded from pass to special mention risk rating. Classified assets (loans with risk ratings of substandard or doubtful) totaled $72.4$30.8 million at June 30, 2020 and $73.42021, compared to $25.8 million at December 31, 2019. Classified assets (loans with substandard or doubtful risk grades) increased to $13.5 million at June 30, 2020, from $9.9 million at December 31, 2019.2020. The $3.6$5.0 million increase was primarily due to the downgrade of two non-owner occupieda $4.6 million commercial real estate loans and one loan secured by a triplex property (both with low loan-to-value ratios), and three home equity loans.mentioned above. There were no loans withconsidered doubtful risk grades at June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 2019.

In accordance with the accounting relief provisions of the CARES Act, the Bank has postponed the adoption of the CECL accounting standard to focus on our customers' needs during the COVID-19 pandemic and due to the lack of clarity around the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, which hindered development of reasonable and supportable forecasts in the early days of the pandemic. Under the existing incurred loss model we adjusted certain qualitative factors, primarily to account for the significant increase in the unemployment rate and recorded $2.0 million and $4.2 million loan loss provisions in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, compared to no provisions for the same periods in the prior year. Net charge-offs were $16 thousand and $9 thousand in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, compared to net recoveries of $18 thousand and $14 thousand for the same respective periods in the prior year.2020.

The $1.4 million increase in non-accrual loans was attributable to one loan secured by a triplex property and one home equity loan.2020.

Non-interest income increaseddecreased by $888 thousand$1.1 million in the first six months of 20202021 to $3.8 million, from $4.9 million in the first half of 2020. The decrease was primarily attributed to the absence of gains on investment security sales in the first six months of 2021, versus $915 thousand realized in the same period a year ago, lower service charges on deposit accounts, and lower fee income from one-way deposit sales to third-party deposit networks in the first quarter of 2021. On March 30, 2020, we implemented temporary waivers for all ATM fees, overdraft fees and early withdrawal penalties for time deposits to help ease the financial burden customers began experiencing due to the pandemic. After honoring the fee waivers for one year, we provided our customers a 30-day notice and reinstituted the fees as of May 3, 2021.

Non-interest expense increased by $1.7 million to $15.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $4.0$13.9 million in the same period a year ago. The increase was mostlyprimarily attributed to $1.0 million in higher salaries and related benefits (mostly attributable to fewer deferred SBA PPP loan origination costs), $351 thousand increase in ARB acquisition-related expenses (mostly related to professional services), and $189 thousand increase in charitable contributions. We expect higher gains onARB acquisition related expenses in the salenext two quarters.

Second QuarterFDIC deposit insurance expenses increased by $243 thousand relative to the first six months of 2020 Compared to Second Quarter of 2019

Non-interest expense decreased by $775 thousand to $14.1 million, compared to $14.9 million in the same period a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to deferralthe absence of approximately $890 thousand in salaries and benefits related to SBA PPP loan origination costs and lower data processing expenses due to our digital platform conversion. These decreases were partially offset by the $260 thousand provision for losses on off-balance sheet loan commitments and increases in other expenses primarily due to higher recruiting costs and contributions to nonprofit organizations affected by the pandemic.

First Six Months of 2020 Compared to First Six Months of 2019

Non-interest expense decreased by $834 thousand to $29.6 million in the first half of 2020, compared to $30.4 million in the same period a year ago. The decrease was primarily associated with the deferral of $890 thousand in salaries and benefits related to SBA PPP loan origination costs, lower data processing expenses due to our digital platform conversion, and lower FDIC insurance expenses due to assessment credits, from the FDIC. These assessment creditswhich were fully utilized as of June 30, 2020. These positive variances were partially offset by higher recruiting expenses, contributions to nonprofit organizations, higher occupancy and equipment costs, and higher provision for losses on off-balance sheet loan commitments.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income tax provisions reflect accruals for taxes at the applicable rates for federal income tax and California franchise tax based upon reported pre-tax income. Provisions also reflect permanent differences between income for tax and financial reporting purposes (such as earnings on tax exempt loans and municipal securities, BOLI, low-income housing tax credits, and stock-based compensation from the exercise of stock options, disqualifying dispositions of incentive stock options and vesting of restricted stock awards).

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 20202021 totaled $3.2 million at an effective tax rate of 25.9%, compared to $2.6 million at an effective tax rate of 26.3%, compared to $2.9 million at an effective tax rate of 26.1% in the same quarter last year. The provision for income taxes for the first half of 20202021 totaled $6.3 million at an effective tax rate of 25.6%, compared to $5.0 million at an effective tax rate of 25.4%, compared to $5.5 million at an

We file a consolidated return in the U.S. Federal tax jurisdiction and a combined return in the State of California tax jurisdiction. There were no ongoing federal or state income tax examinations at the issuance of this report. At June 30, 2020,2021, neither the Bank nor Bancorp had accruals for interest nor penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.

FINANCIAL CONDITION SUMMARY

At June 30, 2020,2021, assets totaled $3,181.5 million,$3.074 billion, an increase of $474.2$161.9 million, from $2,707.3$2.912 billion at December 31, 2019,2020, mainly due to an increaseincreases in cash and loans related toinvestment securities as we redeploy our participation in the PPP in response to the COVID-19 pandemicexcess liquidity from deposit inflows as explaineddiscussed below.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $397.7$257.5 million at June 30, 2020,2021, compared to $183.4$200.3 million at December 31, 2019.2020. The $214.3 million increase was largelymainly due to temporary increases in SBA PPP borrowers'loan forgiveness and an increase in deposits. Cash and cash equivalents do not include $174.0 million and $173.4 million in temporary one-way sale transfers of deposits to third-party deposit accounts. Effective March 26, 2020, the Federal Reserve reduced the reserve requirement ratios to zero percent in response to the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in no restricted cash requirementsnetworks as part of our liquidity management at June 30, 2020. Restricted cash held at the Federal Reserve as of2021 and December 31, 2019 totaled $4.8 million.2020, respectively.

Investment Securities

The investment securities portfolio totaled $555.6$687.0 million at June 30, 2020, a decrease2021, an increase of $14.1$185.6 million from December 31, 2019.2020. The decrease reflectsincrease was primarily due to purchases of $244.7 million to deploy excess cash into interest earning assets in a more favorable interest rate environment in 2021, partially offset by paydowns, calls and maturities totaling $48.5 million and sales totaling $32.8 million during the first half of 2020, partially offset by purchases of $56.9 million high credit quality longer duration securities and increase in$51.3 million. Additionally, the fair value of available-for-sale securities decreased $6.3 million as a result of the higher interest rate environment in 2020. During the first and second quarterssix months of 2020, respectively, we sold $26.6 million2021. There were no security sales in the first six months of short duration agency residential mortgage-backed securities subject to increasing prepayment speeds and $6.2 million of obligations of state and political subdivisions that were sensitive to the credit exposure posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.2021. See Note 4, Investment Securities, for additional information.

The portion of the portfolio outside the state of California is distributed among twelveeleven states. Of the total investment in obligations of state and political subdivisions, the largest concentrations outside of California are in Texas (55.5%(51.0%), Washington (16.0%) and Maryland (7.1%), and Florida (5.6%(5.7%). During March 2020, we strategically increased our credit exposure toOur investment in obligations issued by high credit quality municipal issuers in Texas that are either guaranteed by the AAA-rated

Texas Permanent School Fund ("PSF") or backed by revenue sources from essential services (such as utilities and transportation). We have $6.0 million in obligations of Texas school district issuers having high concentrations in oil and gas industry taxpayers and all of them have credit guarantees from PSF. We have little or no exposure to municipal sectors such as higher education or health care that are most vulnerable to credit risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Investments in states, municipalities and political subdivisions are subject to an initial pre-purchase credit assessment and ongoing monitoring. Key considerations include:

The soundness of a municipality’s budgetary position and stability of its tax revenues
Debt profile and level of unfunded liabilities, diversity of revenue sources, taxing authority of the issuer
Local demographics/economics including unemployment data, largest taxpayers and local employers, income indices and home values
For revenue bonds, the source and strength of revenue for municipal authorities including the obligor’s financial condition and reserve levels, annual debt service and debt coverage ratio, and credit enhancement (such as insurer’s strength and collateral in escrow accounts)
Credit ratings by major credit rating agencies

Loans

Loans increasedDuring the first six months of 2021, loans decreased by $266.9$85.8 million and totaled $2,110.2 million$2.003 billion at June 30, 2020,2021, primarily due to SBA PPP loans which totaled $298.9$248.3 million (net of $8.1 million in deferred loan origination fees and costs) or 14% of loan balances at June 30 2020. We ended the origination of new PPP loans on June 30, 20202021, compared to focus our efforts on helping our customers through the loan forgiveness process.$291.6 million at December 31, 2020. New non-PPP related loan originations totaled $71.6$69.1 million in the first six months of 2020.2021. Payoffs totaled $83.4$95.4 million and credit line utilization decreased $16.8$34.8 million during the first six months of 2020.2021. Loan payoffs in the first half of 2021 consisted largely of loans on which underlying assets were sold or paid off with cash (including completed construction projects). Residential real estate and consumer loan payoffs as well as loans refinanced with other banks contributed to the decline.

As of June 30, 2021, there were 1,532 PPP loans outstanding totaling $248.3 million (net of $6.5 million in unrecognized fees and costs). Of the total 2,876 PPP loans granted amounting to $444.1 million, we funded 1,813 loans totaling $307.9 million in the first round and 1,063 loans totaling $136.2 million in the second round. As of June 30, 2021, PPP loans forgiven and paid off were 1,344 totaling $189.3 million. Forgiveness of PPP loans continues with an additional 126 loans totaling $24.1 million approved between June 30, 2021 and July 31, 2021. Of the number of PPP loans remaining as of July 31, 2021, 71% (1,002 loans) totaling $43.0 million were less than or equal to $150 thousand and had access to streamlined forgiveness processing.

Page-39


As of July 31, 2021, 6 borrowing relationships with 9 loans totaling $43.4 million were benefiting from payment relief. We monitor the financial situation of these clients closely and expect the majority to resume payments as the economy continues to reopen.

Liabilities

During the first six months of 2020,2021, total liabilities increased by $458.8$171.5 million to $2,829.3 million.$2.725 billion. Deposits increased $443.4$179.3 million in the first six months of 2020,2021, primarily driven by a combination of PPP loan proceeds and increased liquidity throughout the banking system as a resultnormal fluctuations in some of depositors' higher level of savings during these uncertain economic times.our larger commercial accounts.

Capital Adequacy
 
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements as set forth in the following tables can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and the Bank’s prompt corrective action classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components of capital, risk weightings and other factors.
 
Management reviews capital ratios on a regular basis to ensure that capital exceeds the prescribed regulatory minimums and is adequate to meet our anticipated future needs.  For all periods presented, the Bank’s ratios exceed the regulatory definition of “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action and Bancorp’s ratios exceed the required minimum ratios to be considered a well-capitalized bank holding company. In addition, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action as of June 30, 2020.2021. There are no conditions or events since that notification that Managementmanagement believes have changed the Bank’s categories and we expect the Bank to remain well capitalized for prompt corrective action purposes.

In July 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("Agencies") finalized regulatory capital rules known as “Basel III.” Fully phased in on January 1, 2019, Basel III required the Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.5%, and (ii) a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 7.0%, both inclusive of a 2.50% “capital conservation buffer." The implementation of the capital conservation buffer began on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and was phased in over a four-year period (increasing by 0.625% each subsequent January 1, until it reached 2.50% on January 1, 2019). In August 2018, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System changed the definition of a "Small Bank Holding Company" by increasing the asset threshold from $1.0 billion to $3.0 billion. As a result, Bancorp was not subject to separate minimum capital requirements as of December 31, 2019.2020. However, we disclosed comparative capital ratios for Bancorp, which would have exceeded well-capitalized levels had Bancorp been subject to the same minimum capital requirements in 2019.2020.

The Bancorp’s and Bank’s capital adequacy ratios as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 are presented in the following tables. As of December 31, 2020, Bancorp's Tier 1 capital includes theincluded a subordinated debenture, which arewas not included at the Bank level. On March 15, 2021, Bancorp redeemed in full our last subordinated debenture due to NorCal Community Bancorp Trust II. The redemption reduced Bancorp's total risk-based capital ratio by approximately 18 basis points.

Liquidity

The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet loan demand and to fund operating activities and deposit withdrawals. We accomplish this goal by maintaining an appropriate level of liquid assets and formal lines of credit with the FHLB, FRBSF and correspondent banks that enable us to borrow funds as discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in ITEM 1 of this report. Our Asset Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), which is comprised of independent Bank directors and the President andBank's Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for approving and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies. ALCO has adopted a contingency
Page-41


funding plan that provides early detection of potential liquidity issues in the market or the Bank and institutes prompt responses that may prevent or alleviate a potential liquidity crisis. Management monitors liquidity daily and regularly adjusts our position based on current and future liquidity needs. We also have relationships with third partythird-party deposit networks and can adjust the placement of our deposits via reciprocal or one-way sales as part of our cash management strategy.
 
We obtain funds from the repayment and maturity of loans, deposit inflows, investment security maturities and paydowns, federal funds purchases, FHLB advances, other borrowings, and cash flow from operations.  Our primary uses of funds are the origination of loans, the purchase of investment securities, withdrawals of deposits, maturity of certificates of deposit, repayment of borrowings, and dividends to common stockholders.
 
The most significant factor incomponent of our daily liquidity position has been the level ofis customer deposits. The attraction and retention of new deposits depends upon the variety and effectiveness of our customer account products, service and convenience, and rates paid to customers, as well asand our financial strength. The $443.4 million increasecash cycles and unique business activities of some of our large commercial depositors may cause short-term fluctuations in deposits in the first half of 2020 was primarily due to temporary increases in deposits from PPP borrowers, which we expect to be utilized by the end of 2020. As of June 30,their deposit balances held with us. Since 2020, the Bank had funded $298.9 million inbanking industry experienced abundant liquidity driven by pandemic-related government programs such as PPP loans (net of $8.1 million of deferred loan origination fees, net of costs). In addition, there has beenand stimulus checks as well as an influx of deposits throughout the banking system as a result of depositors' higher level ofelevated savings during the uncertain economic times.rate system-wide.

In March 2020, we began providing loan payment relief by allowing certain borrowers with hardship requests either full payment deferrals or interest-only payments for up to 120 days. As of July 10, 2020, the Bank had approved over 260 loan modifications exceeding $386 million. The Bank has substantial contingent and on-balance-sheet liquidity to support the loan payment relief programs, including unencumbered available-for-sale securities and cash totaling $1.1 billion at June 30, 2020.

Since Bancorp is a holding company and does not conduct regular banking operations, its primary sources of liquidity are dividends from the Bank. Under the California Financial Code, payment of a dividend from the Bank to Bancorp without advance regulatory approval is restricted to the lesser of the Bank’s retained earnings or the amount of the Bank’s net profits from the previous three fiscal years less the amount of dividends paid during that period. The primary uses of funds for Bancorp are shareholder dividends and ordinary operating expenses.  Bancorp held $15.5$4.6 million of cash at June 30, 2020. The2021.

ITEM 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Market risk is defined as the risk of loss arising from an adverse change in the market value (or prices) of financial instruments. A significant form of market risk is interest rate risk, which is inherent in our lending, investment, borrowing lending and deposit gathering activities. The Bank manages interest rate sensitivity to minimize the exposure of our net interest margin, earnings, and capital to changes in interest rates. Interest rate changes can create fluctuations in the net interest margin due to an imbalance in the timing of repricing or maturity of assets or liabilities.

To mitigate interest rate risk, the structure of our assets and liabilities is managed with the objective of correlating the effects of interest rate changes on loans and investments with those of deposits and borrowings. The asset liability management policy sets limits on the acceptable amount of change to net interest income and economic value of equity in different interest rate environments.

From time to time, we enter into interest rate swap contracts to mitigate the changes in the fair value of specified long-term fixed-rate loans and firm commitments to enter into long-term fixed-rate loans caused by changes in interest rates. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

ALCO and the Board of Directors review our exposure to interest rate risk at least quarterly. We use simulation models to measure interest rate risk and to evaluate strategies to improve profitability. A simplified static statement of condition is prepared on a quarterly basis as a starting point, using instrument level data of our actual loans, investments, borrowings and deposits as inputs. If potential changes to net equity value and net interest income resulting from hypothetical interest rate changes are not within the limits established by the Board of Directors, Managementmanagement may adjust the asset and liability mix to bring the risk position within approved limits or take other actions. At June 30, 2020,2021, interest rate risk was within policy guidelines established by ALCO and the Board. One set of interest rates modeled and evaluated against flat interest rates is a series of immediate parallel shifts in the yield curve. These are provided in the following table as an example rather than an expectation of likely interest rate movements.

Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of our assets and liabilities. The Bank runs a combination of scenarios and sensitivities in its attempt to capture the range of interest rate risk including the simulations mentioned above. As with any simulation model or other method of measuring interest rate risk, limitations are inherent in the process and dependent on assumptions. For example, if we choose to pay interest on certain business deposits that are currently non-interest bearing, causing those deposits to become rate sensitive in the future, we would become less asset sensitive than the model currently indicates. Assets and liabilities may react differently to changes in market interest rates in terms of both timing and responsiveness to market rate movements. Important deposit modeling assumptions are the speed of deposit run-off and the amount by which interest-bearing deposit rates increase or decrease when market interest rates change. Further, the actual rates and timing of prepayments on loans and investment securities could vary significantly from the assumptions applied in the various scenarios. Lastly, changes in U.S. Treasury rates accompanied by a change in the shape of the yield curve could produce different results from those presented in the table. Accordingly, the results presented should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results in the event of changing market interest rates.

ITEM 4.       Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Bank of Marin Bancorp and its subsidiary (the "Company") conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Management,management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
Page-43


effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our Management,management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

While many employees have been working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our branches remain open and we are continually monitoring our internal controls over financial reporting to minimize any related impact of pandemic. In April 2020, Bank of Marin began participating in the SBA PPP and integrated the related processes and systems into our overall internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we implemented or modified certain internal controls, including but not limited to the following:
• Enhanced controls to facilitate SBA PPP loan application, approval, and data input processes.
• Added controls for the deferral and recognition of the SBA PPP processing fees and loan origination costs.
• Implemented controls over SBA PPP loan reporting (Form 1502).
• Began to establish controls and necessary systems related to the SBA PPP loan forgiveness program, which we expect to begin in the third quarter of 2020.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, other than the items described above,2021, there were no significant changes that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The term internal control over financial reporting, as defined by Rule 15d-15(f) of the Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the issuer's 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.

Refer to the risks described"Risk Factors" in the Company’sItem 1A of our 2020 Form 10-K, under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for its year ended December 31, 2019 and in its subsequent periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The effects of the events and circumstances described in the following risk factors may have heightened several of the risks contained in our Form 10-K.
Our Business, Results of Operations, and Financial Condition Have Been, and Will Likely Continue to be, Adversely Affected by the Ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, which has spread globally including in the United States. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. The pandemic has caused significant economic disruption and many states and local governments have continued to order non-essential businesses to close or scale back services. The extent to which the pandemic impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, actions to contain the virus, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, particularly in California. As a result, we are subject to the
Page-44


following risks, which could have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, capital position and liquidity:
The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets and equity market valuations, and increased unemployment levels. This may lead to an increase in loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures, which may increase loan losses, particularly if businesses remain closed, the impact on the global economy worsens, or more customers draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. Additionally, the expiration of the payment relief provided under Section 4013 of the CARES Act may result in loan delinquencies and impairments that could increase the provision for loan losses.
Collateral securing our loans may decline in value, which could increase credit losses in our loan portfolio and necessitate increases in the allowance for loan losses.
Demand for our products and services may decline, and deposit balances may decrease making it difficult to grow assets and income.
The decline in the target federal funds rate has decreased yields on our assets that exceed the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which may continue to reduce our net interest margin.
The future adoption of the CECL standard, which is highly dependent on unemployment rate forecasts over the life of our loans, could significantly increase the allowance for credit losses and decrease net income.
The continued market turmoil could reduce our wealth management and trust services revenue.
Our business operations may be disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively because of illness, quarantines, government actions, and other restrictions in connection with the pandemic.
Recent government actions to provide substantial financial support to businesses (e.g., Paycheck Protection Program) could partially mitigate the financial impact to us and our borrowers. However, the success of these measures is unknown and they may not be sufficient to mitigate fully the negative impact of the ongoing pandemic.
Our Traditional Service Delivery Channels may be Impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic
In light of the external COVID-19 threat, the Board of Directors and senior management are continuously monitoring the situation, providing frequent communications, and making adjustments and accommodations for both external clients and our employees. All branches remain open to serve our customers and local communities, with modified hours and strict social distancing protocols in place as well as a maximum of two customers allowed in a branch at one time. Our customers have been encouraged to utilize alternative banking options including ATM, digital and telephone banking. Further, many employees are working remotely, and travel as well as face-to-face meeting restrictions are in effect. In addition, given the increasing risk of cybersecurity incidents during the pandemic, we have enhanced our cybersecurity protocols. If the pandemic worsens or lasts for an extended period of time, to protect the health of the Bank’s workforce and our customers, we may need to enact further precautionary measures to help minimize the risks to our employees and customers, thus potentially altering our service delivery channels and operations over a prolonged period. These changes to our traditional service delivery channels may negatively impact our customers' experience of banking with us, and therefore negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.pages 12 through 21.
