NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bancorp, a bank holding company, and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Bank of Marin, 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.
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 20222023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of 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 (loss), 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 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 stock 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 2023
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The amendment eliminated the recognition measurement guidance for troubled debt restructured ("TDR") loans and instead enhanced disclosure requirements for certain loan modifications when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendment required that an entity include in its vintage disclosures the current period gross loan charge-offs by year of origination. We early adopted the current period charge-off disclosures in the first quarter of 2022. We adopted the loan modification provisions as
of January 1, 2023 using a modified retrospective method. The cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings was considered immaterial. Refer to Note 5, Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans, for additional information.
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method. Among other things, the ASU renamed the "last-of-layer" method to the "portfolio layer" method and made fair value hedging more accessible for hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios and financial assets. For example, the guidance permits an entity to apply the same portfolio hedging method to both prepayable and non-prepayable financial assets, thereby providing for consistency between accounting for similar hedges. We adopted the amendments on January 1, 2023, which had no effect on our existing hedge accounting, disclosures, financial condition or results of operations.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("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 of accounting for, or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Topic 848 was further amended in January 2021 with ASU No. 2021-01, which provided additional guidance on certain optional expedients and scope of derivative instruments, and in December 2022 with ASU 2022-06, which extended the sunset date of Topic 848 to December 31, 2024 given the UK Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") March 2021 announcement that the intended cessation date of certain tenors of USD LIBOR would be June 30, 2023. An entity may elect the amendments in these updates at an interim period with adoption methods varying based on transaction type. As of June 30, 2023, we had four interest rate swap contracts with notional values totaling $11.5 million indexed to LIBOR, which transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") effective July 1, 2023. The transition to SOFR did not have a material impact to either our financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendment reduces diversity in practice by clarifying that a separate contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. In addition, this ASU provided amended examples to illustrate that a restriction that is a characteristic of the equity security, which market participants would take into account when pricing them, would be considered in measuring fair value. This ASU also introducesintroduced new disclosure requirements. The amendments arewere effective prospectively for years beginning after
December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements. As discussed in Note 4, Investment Securities, on July 13,in 2023 we sold our remaining shares of Visa Inc. Class B restricted common stock. As a result of the sale, this update will nothad no impact our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements. For public companies, the amendment requires entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control lease arrangements over the useful life of the improvements to the common control group, as opposed to the shorter of the remaining lease term and the useful life of the improvements for all other operating leases. The amendments arewere effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, and may be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements. We currently do not have common control lease arrangements, and therefore do not anticipate thatthe adoption of the amendments willhad no impact on our financial condition, and results of operations.operations or disclosures.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method. Under current GAAP, an entity can only elect to apply the proportional amortization method to investments in low-income housing tax credit ("LIHTC") structures. The proportional amortization method results in the cost of the investment being amortized in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits received, with the amortization of the investment and the income tax credits being presented net in the consolidated statements of income as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments will allow entities to elect to account for all other equity investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits to using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the tax credit program through which the investment earns income tax credits,
when certain conditions are met. The amendments arewere effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and may be adopted either on a modified retrospective basis or retrospectively. Other than investments in LIHTC funds, as disclosed in Note 4, Investment Securities, we currently have no other equity investments made primarily for the purpose of receiving income tax credits, and therefore do not anticipate thatthe adoption of this ASU had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, enhanced interim disclosure requirements, clarifying circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, providing new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and requiring other disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023 (i.e., 2024 Form 10-K) and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024, and shall be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. We currently have only one reportable segment and are evaluating the impact the amendments will impacthave on our financial conditionstatement disclosures upon adoption.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments require disaggregated information about the effective tax rate reconciliation and resultsadditional disclosures on reconciling items and taxes paid that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of operations.the amendments on our financial statement disclosures upon adoption.
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 into 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 management judgment and estimation.
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized through our monthly and/or quarterly valuation process in the reporting period during which the event or circumstances that caused the transfer occurred. No such transfers occurred in the years presented.
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. Level 1 securities include U.S. Treasury securities. If quoted market prices are not available, we obtain pricing information from a reputable third-party service provider, who may utilize valuation 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 asset-backed securities, obligations of state and political subdivisions, U.S. agencies or government-sponsored agencies' debt securities, mortgage-backed securities, government agency-issued securities, and corporate bonds. As of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022,2023, there were no Level 3 securities.
Held-to-maturity securities may be subject to an allowance for credit losses as a result of our evaluation of expected losses due to credit quality factors. We did not record any credit loss expense on held-to-maturity securities during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 or June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. 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. These unobservable inputs are not considered significant inputs to the fair value measurement overall. Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to observable market prices for London Interbank OfferedSecured Overnight Financing Rate ("LIBOR"SOFR") and Overnight Index Swap ("OIS") rates (for the very short term), quoted prices for LIBORSOFR futures contracts, observable market prices for LIBORSOFR and OIS swap rates, and one-month and three-month LIBORSOFR 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 LIBORSOFR for the closest maturity term corresponding to the duration of the swaps to derive the CVA. A similarBecause there is little to no counterparty risk, we did not incorporate credit risk adjustment, correlated to the credit standingadjustments from our assessment of the counterparty is made when collateral posted by the counterparty does not fully cover their liability to us.credit risk in determining fair value. For further discussion on our methodology infor 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 individually analyzed loans that are collateral dependent and other real estate owned ("OREO").
OREO represents collateral acquired through foreclosure and is initially recorded at fair value as established by a current appraisal of the collateral. Subsequent to foreclosure, OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. OREO values are reviewed on an ongoing basis and any subsequent decline in fair value is recorded as a foreclosed asset expense in the current period. The value of OREO is classified as Level 3. Our current OREO resulted from the American River Bankshares ("AMRB") merger in 2021.
The following table presents the carrying value of assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and that were held in the consolidated statements of condition at each respective period end, by level within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

FairThe 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 differ from the actual price from a prospective buyer. The discounted cash flow valuation approach reflects key inputs and assumptions that are unobservable, such as loan probability of default, loss given default, prepayment speed, and market discount rates.
FairThe fair value of fixed-rate time deposits is estimated by discounting future contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect the current observable market rates offered for time deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Due to the short-term nature of the FHLB borrowings, the carrying value approximates fair value.
The value of off-balance-sheet 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, 2023March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2022.2023.

Management measures expected credit losses on held-to-maturity securities collectively by major security type with each type sharing similar risk characteristics, and considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. With regard to MBSs and CMOs issued or guaranteed by the GSEs, and SBA-backed securities, we expect to receive all the contractual principal and interest on these securities as such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of and/or guaranteed by the U.S. government. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for these securities. With regard to securities issued by states and political subdivisions and corporate bonds, management considers: (i) issuer and/or guarantor credit ratings, (ii) historical probability of default and loss given default rates for given bond ratings and remaining maturity, (iii) whether issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities, (iv) internal credit review of the financial information, and (v) whether or not such securities have credit enhancements such as guarantees, contain a defeasance clause, or are pre-refunded by the issuers. Based on ourthe comprehensive analysis,analysis, no crcrededitit losses are expected.
The following table summarizes the amortized cost of our portfolio of held-to-maturity securities issued by states and political subdivisions and corporate bonds by Moody's and/or Standard & Poor's bond ratings as of June 30,March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

As part of our ongoing review of our investment securities portfolio, we reassessed the classification of certain securities issued by government sponsored agencies. In March 2022, we transferred $357.5 million of these securities from available-for-sale to held-to-maturity at fair value. We intend and have the ability to hold these securities to maturity. The net unrealized pre-tax loss of $14.8 million that remained and the related accumulated other comprehensive loss are accreted to interest income over the remaining lives of the securities. Because these entries offset each other, there was no impact to net income. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

No allowances for credit losses have been recognized on available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position, as management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to credit risk factors at either June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2022.2023. In addition, for any available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Bank assessed whether it intended to sell the securities, or if it was more likely than not that it would be required to sell the securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which would require a write-down to fair value through net income. Because the Bank did not intend to sell those securities that were in an unrealized loss position, and it was not more-likely-than-not that the Bank would be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, the Bank determined that no write-down was necessary as of the reporting date.
On July 7, 2023, the Bank entered into various interest rate swap agreements with notional values totaling $101.8 million to hedge balance sheet interest rate sensitivity and protect selected securities in its available-for-sale
portfolio against changes in fair value related to changes in the benchmark interest rate. For additional details, refer to Note 9, Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities.
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 as 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 $16.7 million of FHLB stock included in other assets on the consolidated statements of condition at both June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022.2023. 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 waswas not impairedimpaired at June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022. 2023. On July 27, 2023,April 25, 2024, FHLB announced a cash dividend for the secondfirst quarter of 20232024 at an annualized dividend rate of 7.75% 8.25% to be distributed on August 10, 2023. in mid-May 2024. 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, 2023 and December 31, 2022. These shares had a carrying value of zero and were 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 lacked a readily determinable fair value. On July 13, 2023, the Bank sold the entirety of its remaining investment in Visa Inc. Class B restricted common stock for a $2.8 million gain.
For further information, on the Covered Litigation, 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 $2.3$1.9 million and $2.5$2.0 million recorded in other assets as of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022,2023, respectively. In the first sixthree months of 2023,2024, we recognized $300$133 thousand of low-income housing tax credits and other tax benefits, offset by $252$111 thousand of amortization expense of low-income housing tax credit investment, as a component of income tax expense. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, our unfunded commitments for these low-income housing tax credit funds totaled $346$343 thousand. We did not recognize any impairment losses on these low-income housing tax credit investments during the first sixthree months of 20232024 or 2022,2023, as the value of the future tax benefits exceeds the carrying value of the investments.

Lending Risks
Commercial and Industrial Loans - Commercial loans are generally made 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 economy, and resultant decreased consumer and/or business spending, may have an effect on the credit quality of commercial loans.
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 from either the business or investment property and 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 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, floating homes, and indirect luxury auto loans, 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 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)jeopardize 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 and at each quarterly and year-end reporting period. 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 tables present the loan portfolio by loan portfolio class, originationorigination/renewal year and internal risk rating as of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022.2023. The current year vintage table reflects gross charge-offs by loan portfolio class and year of origination. 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.

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 (loss) 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 optionStock options 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-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.
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, 2023, we withheld 3,132 shares totaling $86 thousand at a weighted-average price of $27.57 for cashless exercises. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we withheld 10,208 shares totaling $351 thousand at a weighted-average price of $34.38 for cashless exercises. Shares withheld under net settlement arrangements are available for future grants. The table below depicts the total number of shares, amount, and weighted average price withheld for cashless exercises for the periods presented.

Note 8: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
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.
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's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral types pledged may include accounts receivable, inventory, other personal property and real property.
The contractual amount of unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit not reflected in the consolidated statements of condition are as follows:

We record an allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments at the balance sheet date based on estimates of the probability that these commitments will be drawn upon according to historical utilization experience of the different types of commitments and expected loss rates determined for pooled funded loans. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments totaled $1.1 million and $1.5 million as of June 30, 2023at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022, respectively,2023, which is included in interest payable and other liabilities in the consolidated statements of condition. The $168 thousand reversal of theThere was no provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments in the secondfirst quarter of 2023 was due primarily to a $39.9 million decrease in total unfunded commitments.

Leases
We lease premises under long-term non-cancelable operating leases with remaining terms of 10 months30 days to 18 years, 115 months, 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 5 years. The equipment finance leases do not contain renewal options, bargain purchase options or residual value guarantees.

Litigation Matters
Bancorp may be party to legal actions that arise from time to time in the normal course of business. Bancorp's management 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"). We sold our remaining shares on July 13, 2023, however 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 or, per the terms of the sale, to the recent purchaser of our shares. Visa established an escrow account for the Covered Litigation that it periodically funds, which is expected to cover the settlement payment obligations.
Litigation is ongoing and until the court approval process is complete, there is no assurance that Visa will resolve the claims 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 enteredThe Bank is exposed to certain risks from both its business operations and changes in economic conditions. As part of our asset/liability and interest rate risk management strategy, we may enter into interest rate swapderivative contracts to modify repricing characteristics of certain of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank generally designates interest rate hedging agreements primarily as an asset/liability management strategy, in order to mitigate the changesutilized in the fair valuemanagement 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 (which transitioned to the SOFR effective July 1, 2023 due to the cessation of the LIBOR index on June 30, 2023) protects us against changes in theas either fair value of our loans associated with fluctuating interest rates.hedges or cash flow hedges.
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,On July 7, 2023, we had fourthe Bank entered into various interest rate swap agreements with notional values totaling $101.8 million split evenly between terms of 2.5 and 3.0 years to hedge balance sheet interest rate sensitivity and protect certain of our fixed rate available-for-sale securities against changes in fair value related to changes in the benchmark interest rate. The interest rate swaps involve the receipt of floating rate interest from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate interest payments over the lives of the agreements, without the exchange of the underlying notional values. The transactions were designated as partial term fair value hedges and structured such that the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are expected to be perfectly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value of the hedged items attributable to changes in the SOFR OIS swap rate, the designated benchmark interest rate. Because the hedges met the criteria for using the shortcut method, there is no need to periodically reassess effectiveness during the term of the hedges. For fair value designated hedges, the gains or losses on the hedging instruments as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged items, are recognized in current earnings as their fair values change.
In addition, we had three interest rate swap agreements on certain loans with our customers, which are scheduled to mature at various dates ranging from June 2031 to July 2032. In December 2023, one interest rate swap, scheduled to mature in October 2037. All of our derivatives are accounted for2037, was terminated as the hedged loan was paid off. The loan interest rate swaps were designated as fair value hedges.hedges and allowed 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 SOFR index, protects us against changes in the fair value of our loans associated with fluctuating interest rates. 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 receivable on the swaps

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 unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q and with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 20222023 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
ThisThe discussion of financial results in this Form 10-Q 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 management 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's current expectations regarding economic, legislative, and regulatory issues that may impact Bancorp's earnings in future periods. Factors that could cause future results to vary materially from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions and the economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad, including economic or other disruptions to financial markets caused by acts of terrorism, warwars or other conflicts, such as Russia's military action in Ukraine, impacts from inflation, supply changechain disruptions, changes in interest rates (including the actions taken by the Federal Reserve to control inflation), California's unemployment rate, deposit flows, real estate values, and expected future cash flows on loans and securities; the impact of adverse developments at other banks, including bank failures, that impact general sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks; costs or effects of acquisitions; competition; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; natural disasters (such as wildfires and earthquakes in our area); adverse weather conditions; interruptions of utility service in our markets for sustained periods; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors (including external fraud and cybersecurity threats) affecting our operations, pricing, products and services; and successful integration of acquisitions.
Important factors that could cause results or performance to differ materially differ from those expressed in our prior forward-looking statements are detailed in ITEM 1A, Risk Factors section of our 20222023 Form 10-K as filed with the SEC, and ITEM 1A Risk Factors herein, copies of which are available from us at no charge.herein. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertakeBancorp undertakes no obligation to updaterelease publicly the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect circumstancesevents or eventscircumstances that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Critical accounting estimates are those estimates made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that involve a significant level of estimation and uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. 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. Our critical estimates include: Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Unfunded Commitments, Income Taxes, Fair Value Measurements, and Business Combinations. Goodwill.
Goodwill
Goodwill arises from the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations and represents the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Our annual impairment assessment is performed in the fourth quarter. However, with triggering events occurring in the first quarter of 2024, including a persistent depressed stock price as a result of changes in macroeconomic conditions, market volatility resulting from rising interest rates and the failure of several regional banks in 2023, coupled with a revised five-year strategic forecast for the Bank, we performed a quantitative assessment in the first quarter of 2024, similar to the analysis performed in fourth quarter 2023. The results of this assessment indicated the value of goodwill was not impaired as of March 31, 2024. For a detailed discussion of goodwill accounting and impairment assessment methodology, refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and the Critical Accounting Estimates section of our 20222023 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the interest earned on loans, investments and other interest-earning assets minus 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.

SecondFirst Quarter of 20232024 Compared to the FirstFourth Quarter of 2023
Net interest income totaled $24.1$22.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $29.9 million infor the first quarter of 2023.2024, compared to $24.3 million for the prior quarter. The $5.8$1.6 million decrease from the prior quarter was primarily related to an increase of $1.6 million in interest expense on deposits and a decrease of $1.3 million in interest on cash and investments. These were partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in borrowing costs. Quarter-over-quarter, average interest-bearing deposit balances increased by $36.5 million to $1.860 billion, raising the cost of total deposits by 23 basis points to 1.38%. Average borrowings and higherother obligations decreased by $97.5 million to $7.3 million, and average borrowing balances.investment security balances were down a similar amount.
The tax-equivalent net interest margin was 2.45% in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.04% in2.50% for the first quarter of 2023.2024, compared to 2.53% for the prior quarter.

The $7.2 million decrease from the prior year was primarily due to a higher deposit costs resulting in an incremental $6.2cost of deposits totaling $9.6 million, in interest expense, andpartially offset by lower borrowing costs of $7.6 million. These decreases were partially offset by higher average balances and yields on the investment portfolio, generating incremental income of $5.1 million, and higher yields on loans, adding $1.8$2.6 million.

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").
In response to the evolving risks to economic activity caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the FOMC made two emergency federal funds rate cuts totaling 150 basis points in March 2020. The federal funds rate range remained between 0.0% toand 0.25% through the beginning of 2022, putting downward pressure on our asset yields and net interest margin. Beginning in March 2022, the FOMC began successive increases to the federal funds rate due to the evolving inflation risks, complicated by international political unrest, and oil and other supply chain disruptions. As a result of seven
rate adjustments during 2022, the federal funds target rate range increased to a range ofbetween 4.25% toand 4.50% at year-end 2022.2022 and our net interest margin increased gradually over the course of the year. In 2023, on each of February 1st, March 22nd, May 3rd, and July 26th, the FOMC increased the target rate by 25 basis points to a range of 5.25% to 5.50%. Rising interest rates resulted in rapid increases in the cost of funds through rising deposit costs and increased average borrowings, putting pressure on the net interest margin. Federal Reserve policymakers continue to monitor inflation and economic developments throughout 2023.and are considering rate changes during the balance of 2024. See ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk for further information.
Provision for Credit Losses on Loans
Management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses on loans quarterly based on several factors including growth of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate expected losses over the contractual terms of our 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 activity for the periods presented.

Provision for (reversal of) credit losses on loans | $ | 500 | | $ | 350 | | | | $ | 850 | | $ | (485) | |
We recorded a $500 thousand provision for credit losses on loans in the second quarter. The provision was due primarily to increases in qualitative risk factors from continued negative trends in adversely graded loans and/or collateral values on our non-owner occupied commercial real estate office and multi-family real estate portfolios. These increases were partially offset by the impact of a decrease in loan balances. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Provision for credit losses on loans | $ | 350 | | $ | 1,300 | | $ | 350 | | | | |
We recorded a $350 thousand provision for credit losses on loans in the first quarter. The provision was due primarily to adjustments to certain qualitative risk factors to account for continued negative trends in adversely graded loans for our non-owner occupied commercial real estate and commercial and industrial portfolios, adjustments to the discounted cash flow modeling assumptions related to estimated default timing, and a slight increase in Moody's Analytics' Baseline Forecast of California's unemployment rates, partially offset by the impact of a decrease in pooled loans and changes in loan mix.
We recorded a $1.3 million provision for credit losses on loans in the fourth quarter. The provision was due primarily to an increase in specific allowances related to a few loans that exhibited certain credit risk characteristics over time that were not indicative of pooled loans. Of the specific allowances, a portion was related to two loans with existing substandard risk ratings and collateral valuation issues caused by persistently higher than average vacancy rates. In addition, a portion was related to two loans that were placed on non-accrual status during the fourth quarter, where the estimated credit losses were derived using either discounted expected cash flows or adjusted collateral values and loss rates. A large portion of these specific allowances was previously recognized in the quantitative and qualitative estimated credit losses for pooled loans and shifted to the allowance for individually evaluated loans in the fourth quarter. Other elements of the provision included a $406 thousand loss on the note sale of a loan to an unrelated third party that was charged to the allowance concurrent with the sale, a decrease in loans, and a stable California unemployment rate forecast for the next four quarters. Net adjustments to qualitative factors in the fourth quarter did not materially affect the provision.
The provision totaling $350 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was due primarily toto increases in qualitative risk factors to account for continued uncertainty about inflation and recession risks. Management believed that these risk factors were not adequately captured in the modeled quantitative portion of the allowance and took athe more prudent approach to account for loan and collateral concentration risks, mainly in our construction and commercial real estate portfolios, and the need for heightened portfolio management in light of current economic conditions.conditions at that time. In addition, theaddition, a $19.8 million increase in loans contributedcontributed modestly to the provision in the first quarter.provision. These increases were partially offset by the quantitative impact of an improvement in Moody's Analytics' baseline California unemployment rate forecasts over the next four quarters at the time.
The reversal of the allowance for credit losses on loans for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily resulted from improved unemployment rate forecasts at the time.

SecondNon-interest income totaled $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a loss of $3.3 million for the prior quarter. The $6.0 million increase from the prior quarter was primarily attributed to a $5.9 million net loss on sale of available-for-sale investment securities in the prior quarter.

Non-interest income totaled $2.7$2.8 million for the secondfirst quarter of 2023, compared to $2.9 million for the prior quarter. The $196 thousand decrease2024, materially unchanged from the prior quarter was primarily related to the recognition of a bank-owned life insurance benefit payment in the prior quarter, partially offset by increases in ATM and debit card interchange fees.
First Six Months of 2023 Compared to the First Six Months of 2022
Non-interest income totaled $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $5.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The $79$181 thousand increasedecrease from the prior year period was mostly attributable to the
highera decrease in bank-owned life insurance balances and benefit payments due to the recognition of a death benefit in 2023, partially offset by decreases inhigher dividend rates paid on Federal Home Loan Bank stock and higher wealth management and trust services income and other income including one-way deposit and cash management fees.in 2024.

First Quarter of 2024 Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2023
SecondNon-interest expense totaled $21.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $19.3 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $1.9 million. Salaries and related benefits increased $1.7 million largely due to various factors, both in prior and current quarter. Last quarter, profit sharing, supplemental executive retirement plan and stock-based compensation accrual adjustments reduced expenses. In the first quarter of 2024, there were lower deferred loan origination costs, an increase to the 401(k) contribution matching associated with the usual reset and bonus payments at the beginning of the year, and increased salary costs due to new talent acquisition, partially offset by incentive adjustments. In addition, professional services expenses from certain legal, accounting, and consulting costs increased by $157 thousand.
First Quarter of 20232024 Compared to the First Quarter of 2023
Non-interest expense totaled $20.7$21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023,first quarter of 2024, compared to $19.8$19.8 million for the prior quarter. Thfirst quarter of 2023, an increase of $1.4 million. Significant fluctuations were as follows:
•e $885 thousand increase from the prior quarter included $589 thousand in charitable contributions as part of our annual grant program, $486 thousand in salariesSalaries and related benefits which included annual merit increases, and $393 thousand in expenses and fees associated with anincreased by $1.2 million largely due to the increase in our customers' participationfull time equivalent employees to 330 from 311 at the same time in prior year.
•Deposit network fees increased by $749 thousand as customers sought additional FDIC insurance protection through reciprocal deposit networks to bolster their FDIC insured balances. In addition, our FDIC insurance expense increased by $377 thousand as the statutory rates increased uniformly by 2 basis points for all depository institutions effective January 1, 2023 in order to strengthen the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund. networks.
•These and other lesser increases were partially offset by a $482 thousand reductiondecreases in depreciation and amortization expense and $434 thousand decrease in occupancy and equipment expense, primarily due to the acceleration of lease-related costs for branches closed in the first quarter. These branch closures also reduced maintenance, janitorial and
utilities expenses for the quarter. In addition, professional services decreased by $326 thousand, mainly due to timing of audit work performed.
First Six Months of 2023 Compared to the First Six Months of 2022
Non-interest expense totaled $40.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $38.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of$2.2 million. The most significant increases over prior year came fromoccupancy and equipment and depreciation and amortization expenses which rose $596of $445 thousand and $437$494 thousand, respectively, mainly from the acceleration of lease-related costs for branch closures in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, expenses associated with reciprocal deposits placed into deposit networks included2023. Beginning in other expenses increased $497 thousand due to higher average balances and fees. Salaries and related benefits increased by $457 thousand primarily due to regularly scheduled2024, the estimated annual merit and other increases and lower deferred origination costs, which were partially offset by an adjustment to our incentive bonus accrual. The FDIC insurance assessment and professional services also increased by $369 thousand and $342 thousand, respectively, for the same reasons mentioned above. These increases were partially offset by a $509 thousand decrease in data processing expenses due to our core system contract renegotiation for the current period and because the prior year included data processing expenses largely eliminated after the systems conversion associated with the American River Bankshares merger. In addition, the pre-tax savings in 2023 from the branch closures net of accelerated costs, are expected to be approximately $470 thousand, and future annual pre-tax savings are expected to be approximately $1.4 million.
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, bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") income,, 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 secondfirst quarter of 20232024 totaled $1.3$1.0 million at an effective tax rate of 22.5%25.6%, compared to provision reversal of $218 thousand at a negative effective tax rate of (55.6)% in the prior quarter and $3.4 million at an effective tax rate of 26.7% in the prior quarter.same quarter last year. The decreaseincrease in the provisionprovision for income taxes in the secondfirst quarter of 20232024 reflected lowerhigher pre-tax income.income as compared to the prior quarter. The 420increase in the effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the tax provision reversal recorded in the prior quarter that primarily resulted from a $5.9 million pre-tax loss on the sale of available-for-sale investment securities. The 110 basis point decrease in the effective tax rate in the secondfirst quarter of 20232024, as compared to the same quarter a year ago, was primarily due to the larger proportional effect of permanent tax differences on lower pretax income. This decrease was partially offset by a reduction in the tax-exempt interest exclusion (due to a larger IRC Section 291(e) interest expense disallowance) and lower tax-exempt BOLI income in the second quarter,, compared to the prior quarter.
period.
The provision for income taxes for the first half of 2023 totaled $4.8 million at an effective tax rate of 25.4%, compared to $7.7 million at an effective tax rate of 26.3% for the first half of 2022. The 90 basis point decrease in the effective tax rate in the first half of 2023, as compared to the same period a year ago, was primarily due the larger proportional effect of permanent tax differences on lower pretax income and higher tax-exempt BOLI income.

There were no ongoing federal or state income tax examinations at the time of the issuance of this report. At June 30, 2023,As of March 31, 2024, neither the Bank nor Bancorp had accruals for interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.

Of the total investment in obligations of state and political subdivisions, the largest concentrations outside of California are in Texas (39.7%(37.1%), Washington (14.3%(15.3%) and Wisconsin (8.9%(9.0%). Our investment in obligations issued by municipal issuers in Texas 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).
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 and Credit Quality
During the first halfthree months of 2023,2024, loans increaseddecreased by $10.3$18.8 million and totaled $2.103$2.055 billion at June 30, 2023,as of March 31, 2024, compared to $2.093$2.074 billion as of December 31, 2023. Loan originations were $12.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $53.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. While originations were muted, the pipeline has grown, and key opportunistic hires and new compensation plans have already accelerated calling activity, pipeline growth and diversification.
Loan payoffs were $21.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $50.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. The largest portion of payoffs were the result of construction project completions, followed by refinances of loans not meeting our strategic and risk profile standards, and cash payoffs. There was no dominant overlying trend noted in the quarter.
Non-accrual loans totaled $6.3 million, or 0.31% of the loan portfolio, at March 31, 2024, compared to $8.0 million, or 0.39% at December 31, 2022. Loan originations were $67.72023. The $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compareddecrease resulted from various payoffs and paydowns. Three loan relationships totaling $370 thousand moved to $152.0 million fornon-accrual status in the first six monthsquarter, partially offsetting the decrease.

PPP loan payoffs during the six months ended June 30, 2023payments, and 202263% were $1.8 million and $94.2 million, respectively. In addition, loan amortization from scheduled repayments totaling $39.9 million was partially offset by a net increase inreal estate secured.

Classified loans totaled $54.8 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $32.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The Bank continuesincrease of $22.5 million was due primarily to be focuseda migration of $24.4 million in loans from special mention to substandard risk ratings. The majority of these downgrades were due to protracted issues, therefore, these borrowers' financial conditions merit extra attention and proactive management. The three significant relationships downgraded are of different types and geographies. Two of these are commercial real estate loans that are fully secured and supported with owner-level personal guarantees that have ample liquidity, and we believe there is minimal loss potential in these credits. Only 1% of the additions were on achieving risk-adjusted returns.non-accrual status as of March 31, 2024, with 11% of all classified loans on non-accrual status. Excluding the accruing loan over 90 days past due mentioned below, 98% of all classified loans were current on their payments as of March 31, 2024. Additions to classified loans were offset by $2.9 million in payoffs and paydowns.
The ratio of allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 1.13% at June 30, 2023 compared to 1.10% at December 31, 2022.
Non-accrual loans decreased $320 thousand to $2.1 million, or 0.10% of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2023 from $2.4 million, or 0.12% at December 31, 2022. All of the non-accrual loans are collateralized by real estate with no expected credit loss as of June 30, 2023. Accruing loans past due 30 to 89 days totaled $1.9 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $1.0 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $664 thousand atas of December 31, 2022.
Classified loans with risk ratings of substandard or doubtful totaled $38.1 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $28.1 million at December 31, 2022. Increases in 2023 were primarily due to a $5.8 million increase in the usage of a revolving line of credit that was previously downgraded and the addition of eight loans to seven borrowers totaling $7.4 million. Approximately 90% of the additions were comprised of2023. We had one commercial loan and two non-owner occupiedaccruing non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans.

The increasedecrease was largely due to $35.9$24.4 million in downgrades from special mention to substandard mentioned above, $10.5 million in upgrades to pass risk ratings, and $1.8 million in net paydowns and payoffs, partially offset by $2.0 million in downgrades from pass risk ratings and $443 thousand in balance increases of $548 thousand, which were partially offset by $5.9 million in downgrades fromincreases. Of the loans designated special mention, to substandard and $4.2 million in paydowns and payoffs.98% were real estate secured. All but one of the loans, outside of not-for-profits, are guaranteed by owners or sponsors.
WithNet charge-offs for the heightened market concern about non-owner occupied commercial real estate, and in particular the office portfolios, we are providing the following additional information. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans made up 64%first quarter of total classified loans as of June 30, 2023,2024 totaled $21 thousand, compared to 88%net charge-offs of $387 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2023. The ratio of allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.24% at March 31, 2024, compared to 1.21% at December 31, 2022 and all are currently paying in accordance with loan terms. We continue to maintain diversity among property types and within our geographic footprint. Specifically, our office commercial real estate portfolio in the City of San Francisco represents just 3% of our total loan portfolio and 6% of our total non-owner occupied commercial real estate portfolio. As of the last annual review period (generally December 2022), the average loan-to-value and debt-service coverage for the entire non-owner occupied office portfolio were 55% and 1.67x, respectively. For the eleven non-owner occupied office loans in the City of San Francisco totaling $71.4 with an average loan balance of $6.5 million, the average loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios were 63% and 1.20x, respectively.2023.

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 and produces a five-year capital plan semi-annually to ensure that capital exceeds the prescribed regulatory minimums and is adequate to meet our anticipated future needs. Stress tests are performed on capital ratios and include scenarios such as additional unrealized losses on the investment portfolio, additional deposit growth and potential share repurchases. 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, 2023.March 31, 2024. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories and we expect the Bank to remain well capitalized for prompt corrective action purposes.
Bancorp's TCE ratio was 8.6%9.76% at June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, compared to 8.2%9.73% at December 31, 2022. 2023. Bancorp's TCE ratio, net of after tax unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities, was 6.7%7.67%, compared to 6.2%7.80% at December 31, 2022.2023. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is important because it reflects the level of capital available to withstand drastic changes in market conditions (referrefer to page 45 for a discussionthe discussion and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure)measure in the section below entitled Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
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 seen in the table below and 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 Bank directors and the Bank's Chief Executive Officer, is responsible for approving and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies. The Bank has long-established minimum liquidity and diversification requirements that are regularly monitored using metrics and tools similar to those used by larger banks, such as the Liquidity Coverage Ratioliquidity coverage ratio, and multi-scenario, long-horizon stress testing.tests. Our contingency funding plan provides for 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-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 maintained $2.2 million in off-balance sheet one-way deposit sales with our deposit networks at both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Net available contingent funding sources, including unrestricted cash, unencumbered available-for-sale securities and total available borrowing capacity was $1.992$1.905 billion, or 209%208% of estimated uninsured and/or uncollateralized deposits as of June 30, 2023. The Federal Reserve's new BTFP facility offers borrowing capacity based on par values of securities pledged making it less sensitive to changes in market rates. March 31, 2024.

1 Excludes cash items in transit.
Note: Brokered deposits available through third party networks are not included above.
We obtain funds from the repayment and maturity of loans, deposit inflows, investment securitysecurities sales, maturities and paydowns, federal funds purchases, FRB and FHLB advances, other borrowings, and cash flow from operations. Although available as a liquidity source, we have not needed to utilize brokered deposits. 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, dividends to common stockholders, and operating expenses.
Customer deposits are a significant component of our daily liquidity position. The attraction and retention of new deposits depend upon the variety and effectiveness of our customer account products, service and convenience, rates paid to customers, and our financial strength. The cash cycles and unique business activities of some of our large commercial depositors may cause short-term fluctuations in their deposit balances held with us.
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased $5.8increased $5.9 million in the first halfthree months of 2023. 2024. The most significant sources of liquidity during the first three months of 2024 were proceeds from principal paydowns and maturities of investment securities of $20.3 million, and proceeds from loans collected net of originations totaling $18.7 million. In addition, $4.3 million in net cash was provided by operating activities.
Significant uses of liquidity during 2023the first three months of 2024 were $248.1$26.0 million in repayments of short-term borrowings, $6.0 million in net withdrawals of deposits $9.3 million in loan originations and advances, net of principal collected, and $8.0$4.0 million in cash dividends paid on common stock to our shareholders.
The most significant sources of liquidity during the first half of 2023 were increased Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings of $180.2 million, proceeds from principal paydowns and maturities of investment securities of $59.0 million, and $21.5 million in net cash provided by operating activities. Refer to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in this Form 10-Q for additional information on our sources and uses of liquidity. Management anticipates that our current strong liquidity position, as detailed in this report, and contingent funding sources outlined in the table above are adequate to support our operational needs.
Unfunded loan commitments, as discussed in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q, totaled $489.6$489.4 million at June 30, 2023.March 31, 2024. We expect to fund these commitments to the extent utilized primarily through the repayment of existing loans, principal paydowns of investment securities, and liquid assets.
Over the next twelve months, $179.4$251.4 million of time deposits will mature. We expect to replace these funds with new deposits or excess liquidity. OurWe believe our emphasis on local deposits, combined with our immediately available funding sources, provides a very stable base for our liquidity needs.
We had no borrowings under our credit facilities of $292.2 million at June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, and $112.0$26.0 million at December 31, 2022,2023, as discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in ITEM 1 of this report.
SinceBecause 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 $9.7$8.6 million in cash at June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and management anticipates that there will be sufficient earningscapacity at the Bank to provide dividends to Bancorp to meet its funding requirements for the foreseeable future.
Statement Regarding use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our first half of 2022 was impacted by costs associated with our 2021 acquisition of American River Bankshares, which we considered immaterial to discuss in this report. For additional information regarding the impact of non-GAAP adjustments to our first half of 2022 performance measures, refer to Form 10-Q filed on August 8, 2022.
In this report, financialFinancial results are presented in accordance with GAAP and with reference to certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that, given recent industry turmoil, the presentation of Bancorp's non-GAAP TCE ratio reflecting the after-taxafter tax impact of unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities provides useful supplemental information to investors becausebecause it reflects the level of capital available to withstand drastic changes in market conditions. remaining after a hypothetical liquidation of the entire securities portfolio. Because there are limits to the usefulness of this measure to investors, Bancorp encourages readers to consider its annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto in their entirety, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP TCE ratio is presented below.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative DisclosureDisclosures 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 component of market risk is interest rate risk, which is inherent in our lending, investment, borrowing 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. Interest rate changes can also affect the market value of our financial instruments, such as available-for-sale securities and the related unrealized gains or losses, which affectsaffect our equity value.
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 and liability management policyAsset/Liability Management Policy sets limits on the acceptable amount of change to net interest income and the 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 selected investment securities and specified long-term fixed-rate loans and firm commitments to enter into long-term fixed-rate loans caused by changes in interest rates. SeeRefer to Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.report.
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 in the context of policy guidelines. A simplified 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, management may adjust the asset and liability mix to bring the risk position within approved limits or take other actions. Governing policies are subject to review by regulators and are updated to incorporate their observations and to adapt to changes in idiosyncratic and systemic risks. At June 30, 2023,As of March 31, 2024, 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 and a static balance sheet is a series of immediate parallel shifts in the yield curve. Our most recent analysis of our interest rate sensitivity is provided in the following table as an example rather than an expectation of likely interest rate movements.
| Immediate and Parallel Shift in Interest Rates (in basis points) | Estimated Change in Net Interest Income in Year 1, as percent of Net Interest Income | Estimated Change in Net Interest Income in Year 2, as percent of Net Interest Income |

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, lower deposit growth than modeled may cause the Bank to increase its borrowing position, thereby increasing its liability sensitivity. Additionally, 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 include the speed of deposit run-off and the amount by which interest-bearing deposit rates increase or decrease when market interest rates change, otherwise known as the deposit beta. We appliedThe above tables reflect deposit betas up tof uo 45%p to 68%, averaging 35%40%, to rates paid on non-maturity interest-bearing deposits in rising rate scenarios reflectedand deposit betas of up to 60%, averaging 34%, to rates paid on non-maturity interest-bearing deposits in the table above.falling rate scenarios. The actual rates and timing of prepayments on loans and investment securities could vary significantly from the assumptions applied
in the various scenarios. Lastly, uneven changes in different tenors of U.S. Treasury rates that result in changes to 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, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the 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, 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
During the quarter ended June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, there were no significant changes that materially affected, or wereare 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.

In evaluating an investment in Bancorp's common stock, investors should consider, among other things, the risks previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our 20222023 Form 10-K, and the information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports and registration statements filed with the SEC, which are incorporated herein by reference. Other than as noted below, thereThere have been no material changes into the risk factors disclosed in our 20222023 Form 10-K.
Recent Negative Developments Affecting the Banking Industry and Resulting Media Coverage Have Eroded Customer and Investor Confidence in the Banking System
The recent high-profile bank failures involving Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic Bank, as well as media and market coverage of the Bay Area economy and local financial institutions, have generated significant market volatility among publicly traded bank holding companies and, in particular, regional and community banks like the Company. These market developments have negatively impacted customer confidence in the safety and soundness of regional and community banks. As a result, customers may choose to maintain deposits with larger financial institutions or invest in higher yielding short-term fixed income securities, all of which could materially adversely impact the Company’s liquidity, loan funding capacity, net interest margin, capital and results of operations. Additionally, these recent events have, and could continue to, adversely impact the market price and volatility of the Company’s common stock independent from the Company’s actual underlying financial performance.
Rising Interest Rates Have Decreased the Value of the Company’s Held-To-Maturity and Available-for-Sale Securities Portfolio, and the Company Would Realize Losses if It Were Required to Sell Such Securities to Meet Liquidity Needs
Because of inflationary pressures and the resulting rapid increases in interest rates over the last year, the trading value of previously issued government and other fixed income securities has declined significantly. These securities make up a majority of the securities portfolio of most banks in the U.S., including the Company’s, resulting in unrealized losses embedded in the held-to-maturity portion of U.S. banks’ securities portfolios and unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities reflected in the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income. While the Company may use the sale of eligible securities in the normal course of business as a source of liquidity or to reposition the balance sheet for strategic purposes, it is not our intention to sell securities at a net loss. However, if the Company were to sell such securities it may incur losses that could impair the Company’s capital, financial condition, and results of operations and may require the Company to raise additional capital on unfavorable terms, thereby negatively impacting its profitability.
Any Regulatory Examination Scrutiny or New Regulatory Requirements Arising From the Recent Events in the Banking Industry Could Increase the Company’s Expenses and Affect the Company’s Operations
The Company also anticipates increased regulatory scrutiny – in the course of routine examinations and otherwise – and new regulations directed towards banks of similar size to the Bank, designed to address the recent negative developments in the banking industry, all of which may increase the Company’s costs of doing business and reduce its profitability. As primarily a commercial bank, the Bank has a higher percentage of uninsured deposits compared to primarily retail focused banks. As a result, the Bank could face increased scrutiny or be viewed as higher risk by regulators and the investor community.
