HomeStreet, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1–SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
HomeStreet, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a diversified financial services company serving customers primarily in the Pacific Northwest, California and Hawaii. The Company is principally engaged in real estate lending, including mortgage banking activities, and commercial and consumer banking. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HomeStreet, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, HomeStreet Capital Corporation and HomeStreet Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s subsidiaries, HomeStreet/WMS, Inc., HomeStreet Reinsurance, Ltd., Continental Escrow Company and Union Street Holdings LLC, YNB Real Estate LLC, BSBC Properties LLC, HS Cascadia Holdings LLC and Lacey Gateway LLC. HomeStreet Bank was formed in 1986 and is a state-chartered savings bank.
The Company’s accounting and financial reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and related disclosures. Although theseThese estimates contemplate current conditionsthat require application of management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments often result in the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and how they are expected tomay change in the future it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could be worse than anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect the Company’s resultsperiods. Not all of operations and financial condition.these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. Management has made significant estimates in several areas, including the fair value of assets acquired and actual results could differ materially from those estimates.liabilities assumed in business combinations (Note 2, Business Combinations), allowance for credit losses (Note 4, Loans and Credit Quality), valuation of residential mortgage servicing rights and loans held for sale (Note 7, Mortgage Banking Operations), loans held for investment (Note 4, Loans and Credit Quality), investment securities (Note 3, Investment Securities) and derivatives (Note 6, Derivatives and Hedging Activities). Certain amounts in the financial statements from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.
These unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations in the interim financial statements do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013,2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K”).
Purchase Accounting Adjustments
On November 1, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of Fortune Bank and YNB Financial Services Corp. ("YNB"), the parent of Yakima National Bank. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisitions were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. On December 6, 2013, the Company acquired two retail deposit branches and some related assets from AmericanWest Bank, a Washington state-chartered bank. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company completed a more detailed fair value analysis of premises and equipment assumed in the acquisition of YNB and determined that adjustments to the acquisition-date fair value were required. The Company also determined that adjustments were required to the provisional estimates for core deposit intangibles that were assumed in all three acquisitions. As a result of these adjustments, core deposit intangibles increased by $1.1 million, premises and equipment decreased by $740 thousand, and deferred tax liabilities increased by $280 thousand, resulting in a net decrease to goodwill of $118 thousand. These immaterial measurement period adjustments and corrections of accounting errors were made in the second quarter of 2014 as they were not material to the prior periods.
Recent Accounting Developments

The ASU was issued to simplify the accounting for measurement period adjustments for business combinations. The amendments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projectsthe ASU require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is required to also record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt this ASU for the first interim period beginning after December 15, 2015 and will apply prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts which occur after the effective date of this ASU.
On April 7, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The ASU applieswas issued to all reporting entitiessimplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This guidance requires that invest in qualified affordable housing projects through limiteddebt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability entities that are flow through entities for tax purposes. The amendments in this ASU eliminatebe presented on the effective yield election and permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial coststatement of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received, and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statementfinancial condition as a componentdirect deduction from the carrying amount of income tax expense (benefit). Those not electingthat debt liability, consistent with the proportional amortization method would accountpresentation of debt discounts. This guidance becomes effective for the investment usingCompany for the equity method or cost method. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presentedinterim and are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, although2015, and early adoption is permitted.permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The guidance is required to be applied on a retrospective basis to each individual period presented on the statement of financial condition. The adoption of this guidance will result in a reclassification of debt issuance costs from other assets to consolidated obligations on the statement of financial condition. The Company electedis in the process of evaluating the effect of this guidance on the financial statements but the impact is not expected to adopt this new accounting guidance as of January 1, 2014. It is beingbe material.

The Company can elect to adopt the amendments either (1) prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or (2) retrospectively. The Company is in the process of $406 thousandevaluating this guidance and its effect on the financial statements but the impact is not expected to be material.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation. The ASU provides an additional requirement for a limited partnership or similar entity to qualify as a voting interest entity, amending the criteria for consolidating such an entity and eliminating the deferral provided under previous guidance for investment companies. In addition, the new guidance amends the criteria for evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or service provider as a variable interest and amends the criteria for evaluating the effect of fee arrangements and related parties on a VIE primary beneficiary determination. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the recognition of the cumulative effect for prior years of adoption of this new accounting guidance. impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon foreclosure. The ASU clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and can be applied with a modified retrospective transition method or prospectively. The prospective adoption of ASU 2014-04 isdid not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The new accounting guidance, which does not apply to financial instruments, is effective on a retrospective basis beginning on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. The ASU applies to all entities that enter into repurchase-to-maturity transactions or repurchase financings. The amendments in this ASU require that repurchase-to-maturity transactions be accounted for as secured borrowings consistent with the accounting for other repurchase agreements. In addition, the amendments require separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty (a repurchase financing), which will result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. The amendments require an entity to disclose information about transfers accounted for as sales in transactions that are economically similar to repurchase agreements, in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial asset throughout the term of the transaction. In addition the amendments require disclosure of the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions and the tenor of those transactions. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is not permitted. The application of this guidance may requirerequired enhanced disclosures of the Company's repurchase agreements, but will havehad no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14, Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. The ASU clarifies the classification of certain foreclosed mortgage loans held by creditors that are either fully or partially guaranteed under government programs. The ASU requires that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; (3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. The separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and can be applied with a modified retrospective transition method or prospectively. The prospective adoption of this ASU 2014-14 isdid not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2–BUSINESS COMBINATIONS:
On March 1, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of Simplicity Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Simplicity”) and Simplicity’s wholly owned subsidiary, Simplicity Bank. Simplicity’s principal business activities prior to the merger were attracting retail deposits from the general public, originating or purchasing loans, primarily loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one-to-four family residences and multi-family residences located in Southern California and, to a lesser extent, commercial real estate, automobile and other consumer loans; and the origination and sale of fixed-rate, conforming, one-to-four family residential real estate loans in the secondary market, usually with servicing retained. The primary objective for this acquisition is to grow our Commercial and Consumer Banking segment by expanding the business of the former Simplicity branches by offering additional banking and lending products to former Simplicity customers as well as new customers. The acquisition was accomplished by the merger of Simplicity with and into HomeStreet, Inc. with HomeStreet, Inc. as the surviving corporation, followed by the merger of Simplicity Bank with and into HomeStreet Bank with HomeStreet Bank as the surviving subsidiary. The results of operations of Simplicity will be included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.
At the closing, there were 7,180,005 shares of Simplicity common stock, par value $0.01, outstanding, all of which were cancelled and exchanged for an equal number of shares of HomeStreet common stock, no par value, issued to Simplicity’s stockholders. In connection with the merger, all outstanding options to purchase Simplicity common stock were cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the difference between a calculated price of HomeStreet common stock and the exercise price of the option, provided, however, that any options that were out-of-the-money at the time of closing were cancelled for no consideration. The calculated price of $17.53 was determined by averaging the closing price of HomeStreet common stock for the 10 trading days prior to but not including the 5th business day before the closing date. The aggregate consideration paid by us in the Simplicity acquisition was approximately $471 thousand in cash and 7,180,005 shares of HomeStreet common stock with a fair value of approximately $124.2 million as of the acquisition date. We used current liquidity sources to fund the cash consideration.
The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of acquisition date. The Company made significant estimates and exercised significant judgment in estimating the fair values and accounting for such acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The valuation of acquired loans, mortgage servicing rights, premises and equipment, core deposit intangibles, deferred taxes, deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and any contingent liabilities that arise as a result of the transaction are considered preliminary and such fair value estimates are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the acquisition date or when additional information relative to the closing date fair values becomes available and such information is considered final, whichever is earlier.
A summary of the consideration paid, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the merger are presented below:

| | $ | (7,345 | ) |
The provisional application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in a bargain purchase gain of $7.3 million which was reported as a component of noninterest income on our consolidated statements of operations. A substantial portion of the assets acquired from Simplicity were mortgage-related assets, which generally decrease in value as interest rates rise and increase in value as interest rates fall. The bargain purchase gain was driven largely by a substantial decline in long-term interest rates between the period shortly after our announcement of the Simplicity acquisition and its closing, which resulted in an increase in the fair value of the acquired mortgage assets and the overall net fair value of assets acquired. In addition, the Company believes it was able to acquire Simplicity for less than the fair value of its net assets due to Simplicity’s stock trading below its book value for an extended period of time prior to the announcement of the acquisition. The Company negotiated a purchase price per share for Simplicity that was above the prevailing stock price thereby representing a premium to the shareholders. The stock consideration transferred was based on a 1:1 stock conversion ratio. The price of the Company’s shares declined between the time the deal was announced and when it closed which also attributed to the bargain purchase gain. The acquisition of Simplicity by the Company was approved by Simplicity’s shareholders. For tax purposes, the bargain purchase gain is a non-taxable event.
The operations of Simplicity are included in the Company's operating results as of the acquisition date of March 1, 2015 through the period ended September 30, 2015. Acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred in noninterest expense as merger and integration costs.
The following table provides a breakout of merger-related expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and for the year ended December 31, 2014:

The $664.1 million estimated fair value of loans acquired from Simplicity was determined by utilizing a discounted cash flow methodology considering credit and interest rate risk. Cash flows were determined by estimating future credit losses and the rate of prepayments. Projected monthly cash flows were then discounted to present value based on the Company’s weighted average cost of capital. The discount for acquired loans from Simplicity was $16.6 million as of the acquisition date.
A core deposit intangible (“CDI”) of $7.5 million was recognized related to the core deposits acquired from Simplicity. A discounted cash flow method was used to estimate the fair value of the certificates of deposit. The CDI is amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately ten years using an accelerated method and will be reviewed for impairment quarterly.
The fair value of savings and transaction deposit accounts was assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. A discounted cash flow method was used to estimate the fair value of the certificates of deposit. A premium, which will be amortized over the contractual life of the deposits, of $4.0 million was recorded for certificates of deposit.
The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances was estimated using a discounted cash flow method. A premium, which will be amortized over the contractual life of the advances, of $855 thousand was recorded for the Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
The Company determined that the disclosure requirements related to the amounts of revenues and earnings of the acquiree included in the consolidated statements of operations since the acquisition date is impracticable. The financial activity and operating results of the acquiree were commingled with the Company’s financial activity and operating results as of the acquisition date.
Unaudited Pro Forma Results of Operations
The following table presents our unaudited pro forma results of operations for the periods presented as if the Simplicity acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma results of operations include the historical accounts of Simplicity and pro forma adjustments as may be required, including the amortization of intangibles with definite lives and the amortization or accretion of any premiums or discounts arising from fair value adjustments for assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The unaudited pro forma information is intended for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of our future operating results or operating results that would have occurred had the Simplicity acquisition been completed at the beginning of 2014. No assumptions have been applied to the pro forma results of operations regarding possible revenue enhancements, expense efficiencies or asset dispositions.

The following tables present the fair value of investment securities available for sale by contractual maturity along with the associated contractual yield for the periods indicated below. Contractual maturities for mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations as presented exclude the effect of expected prepayments. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations before the underlying mortgages mature. The weighted-average yield is computed using the contractual coupon of each security weighted based on the fair value of each security and does not include adjustments to a tax equivalent basis.

NOTE 3–4–LOANS AND CREDIT QUALITY:
For a detailed discussion of loans and credit quality, including accounting policies and the methodology used to estimate the allowance for credit losses, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 6,5, Loans and Credit Quality within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company's portfolio of loans held for investment is divided into two portfolio segments, consumer loans and commercial loans, which are the same segments used to determine the allowance for loan losses. Within each portfolio segment, the Company monitors and assesses credit risk based on the risk characteristics of each of the following loan classes: single family and home equity and other loans within the consumer loan portfolio segment and commercial real estate, multifamily, construction/land development and commercial business loans within the commercial loan portfolio segment.
Loans held for investment consist of the following:

Credit Risk Concentration
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of customers are engaged in similar business activities or activities in the same geographic region, or when they have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions.
Loans held for investment are primarily secured by real estate located in the states of Washington,Pacific Northwest, Oregon, California Idaho and Hawaii. At September 30, 20142015, we had concentrations representing 10% or more of the total portfolio by state and property type for the loan classes of single family, commercial real estate and construction/land development within the state of Washington, which represented 26.2%19.3%, 22.2%15.2% and 11.8%11.5% of the total portfolio, respectively. Additionally, we had a concentration representing 10% or more by state and property type for the single family loan class within the state of California, which represented 13.5% of the total portfolio. At December 31, 20132014 we had concentrations representing 10% or more of the total portfolio by state and property type for the loan classes of single family, and commercial real estate and construction/land development within the state of Washington, which represented 37.3%28.0% and 21.2%20.7% and 13.7% of the total portfolio, respectively. These loans were mostly located within the metropolitan area of Puget Sound, particularly within King County.
Credit Quality
Management considers the level of allowance for loan losses to be appropriate to cover credit losses inherent within the loans held for investment portfolio as of September 30, 20142015. In addition to the allowance for loan losses, the Company maintains a separate allowance for losses related to unfunded loan commitments, and this amount is included in accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Collectively, these allowances are referred to as the allowance for credit losses.
For further information on the policies that govern the determination of the allowance for loan losses levels, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Credit Quality Indicators
Management regularly reviews loans in the portfolio to assess credit quality indicators and to determine appropriate loan classification and grading in accordance with applicable bank regulations. The Company's risk rating methodology assigns risk ratings ranging from 1 to 10, where a higher rating represents higher risk. The Company differentiates its lending portfolios into homogeneous loans and non-homogeneous loans.
The 10 risk rating categories can be generally described by the following groupings for non-homogeneous loans:
Pass. We have five pass risk ratings which represent a level of credit quality that ranges from no well-defined deficiency or weakness to some noted weakness, however the risk of default on any loan classified as pass is expected to be remote. The five pass risk ratings are described below:
Minimal Risk. A minimal risk loan, risk rated 1-Exceptional, is to a borrower of the highest quality. The borrower has an unquestioned ability to produce consistent profits and service all obligations and can absorb severe market disturbances with little or no difficulty.
Low Risk. A low risk loan, risk rated 2-Superior, is similar in characteristics to a minimal risk loan. Balance sheet and operations are slightly more prone to fluctuations within the business cycle; however, debt capacity and debt service coverage remains strong. The borrower will have a strong demonstrated ability to produce profits and absorb market disturbances.
Modest Risk. A modest risk loan, risk rated 3-Excellent, is a desirable loan with excellent sources of repayment and no currently identifiable risk associated with collection. The borrower exhibits a very strong capacity to repay the loan in accordance with the repayment agreement. The borrower may be susceptible to economic cycles, but will have cash reserves to weather these cycles.
Average Risk. An average risk loan, risk rated 4-Good, is an attractive loan with sound sources of repayment and no material collection or repayment weakness evident. The borrower has an acceptable capacity to pay in accordance with the agreement. The borrower is susceptible to economic cycles and more efficient competition, but should have modest reserves sufficient to survive all but the most severe downturns or major setbacks.
Acceptable Risk. An acceptable risk loan, risk rated 5-Acceptable, is a loan with lower than average, but still acceptable credit risk. These borrowers may have higher leverage, less certain but viable repayment sources, have limited financial reserves and may possess weaknesses that can be adequately mitigated through collateral, structural or credit enhancement. The borrower is susceptible to economic cycles and is less resilient to negative market forces or financial events. Reserves may be insufficient to survive a modest downturn.
Watch. A watch loan, risk rated 6-Watch, is still pass-rated, but represents the lowest level of acceptable risk due to an emerging risk element or declining performance trend. Watch ratings are expected to be temporary, with issues resolved or manifested to the extent that a higher or lower rating would be appropriate. The borrower should have a plausible plan, with reasonable certainty of success, to correct the problems in a short period of time. Borrowers rated watch are characterized by elements of uncertainty, such as:
BorrowerThe borrower may be experiencing declining operating trends, strained cash flows or less-than anticipated performance. Cash flow should still be adequate to cover debt service, and the negative trends should be identified as being of a short-term or temporary nature.
The borrower may have experienced a minor, unexpected covenant violation.
Companies who may be experiencing tight working capital or have a cash cushion deficiency.
A loan may also be a watch if financial information is late, there is a documentation deficiency, the borrower has experienced unexpected management turnover, or if they face industry issues that, when combined with performance factors create uncertainty in their future ability to perform.
Delinquent payments, increasing and material overdraft activity, request for bulge and/or out- of-formula advances may be an indicator of inadequate working capital and may suggest a lower rating.
Failure of the intended repayment source to materialize as expected, or renewal of a loan (other than cash/marketable security secured or lines of credit) without reduction are possible indicators of a watch or worse risk rating.
Special Mention. A special mention loan, risk rated 7-Special Mention, has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loans or the institutions credit position at some future date. They contain unfavorable characteristics and are generally undesirable. Loans in this category are currently protected but are potentially weak and constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of a substandard classification. A special mention loan has potential weaknesses, which if not checked or corrected, weaken the loan or inadequately protect the Company’s position at some future date. Such weaknesses include:
Performance is poor or significantly less than expected. There may be a temporary debt-servicing deficiency or inadequate working capital as evidenced by a cash cushion deficiency, but not to the extent that repayment is compromised. Material violation of financial covenants is common.
Loans with unresolved material issues that significantly cloud the debt service outlook, even though a debt servicing deficiency does not currently exist.
Modest underperformance or deviation from plan for real estate loans where absorption of rental/sales units is necessary to properly service the debt as structured. Depth of support for interest carry provided by owner/guarantors may mitigate and provide for improved rating
This rating may be assigned when a loan officer is unable to supervise the credit properly, an inadequate loan agreement, an inability to control collateral, failure to obtain proper documentation, or any other deviation from prudent lending practices.
Unlike a substandard credit, there should be a reasonable expectation that these temporary issues will be corrected within the normal course of business, rather than liquidation of assets, and in a reasonable period of time.
Substandard. A substandard loan, risk rated 8-Substandard, is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the loan. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual loans classified substandard. Loans are classified as substandard when they have unsatisfactory characteristics causing unacceptable levels of risk. A substandard loan normally has one or more well-defined weaknesses that could jeopardize repayment of the loan. The likely need to liquidate assets to correct the problem, rather than repayment from successful operations is the key distinction between special mention and substandard. The following are examples of well-defined weaknesses:
Cash flow deficiencies or trends are of a magnitude to jeopardize current and future payments with no immediate relief. A loss is not presently expected, however the outlook is sufficiently uncertain to preclude ruling out the possibility.
The borrower has been unable to adjust to prolonged and unfavorable industry or economic trends.
Material underperformance or deviation from plan for real estate loans where absorption of rental/sales units is necessary to properly service the debt and risk is not mitigated by willingness and capacity of owner/guarantor to support interest payments.
Management character or honesty has become suspect. This includes instances where the borrower has become uncooperative.
Due to unprofitable or unsuccessful business operations, some form of restructuring of the business, including liquidation of assets, has become the primary source of loan repayment. Cash flow has deteriorated, or been diverted, to the point that sale of collateral is now the Company’s primary source of repayment (unless this was the original source of repayment). If the collateral is under the Company’s control and is cash or other liquid, highly marketable securities and properly margined, then a more appropriate rating might be special mention or watch.
The borrower is involved in bankruptcy proceedings where collateral liquidation values are expected to fully protect the Company against loss.
There is material, uncorrectable faulty documentation or materially suspect financial information.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful, risk rated 9-Doubtful, have all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors, which may work towards strengthening of the loan, classification as a loss (and immediate charge-off) is deferred until more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition, liquidation procedures, capital injection, and perfection of liens on additional collateral and refinancing plans. In certain circumstances, a doubtful rating will be temporary, while the Company is awaiting an updated collateral valuation. In these cases, once the collateral is valued and appropriate margin applied, the remaining un-collateralized portion will be charged-off. The remaining balance, properly margined, may then be upgraded to substandard, however must remain on non-accrual.
Loss. Loans classified as loss, risk rated 10-Loss, are considered un-collectible and of such little value that the continuance as an active Company asset is not warranted. This rating does not mean that the loan has no recovery or salvage value, but rather that the loan should be charged-off now, even though partial or full recovery may be possible in the future.
Impaired. Loans are classified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due, in accordance with the terms of the original loan agreement, without unreasonable delay. This generally includes all loans classified as non-accrualnonaccrual and troubled debt restructurings. Impaired loans are risk rated for internal and regulatory rating purposes, but presented separately for clarification.
Homogeneous loans maintain their original risk rating until they are greater than 30 days past due, and risk rating reclassification is based primarily on the past due status of the loan. The risk rating categories can be generally described by the following groupings for commercial and commercial real estate homogeneous loans:
Watch. A homogeneous watch loan, risk rated 6, is 30-59 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.
Special Mention. A homogeneous special mention loan, risk rated 7, is 60-89 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.
Substandard. A homogeneous substandard loan, risk rated 8, is 90-179 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.
Loss. A homogeneous loss loan, risk rated 10, is 180 days and more past due from the required payment date. These loans are generally charged-off in the month in which the 180 day time period elapses.
The risk rating categories can be generally described by the following groupings for residential and home equity and other homogeneous loans:
Watch. A homogeneous retail watch loan, risk rated 6, is 60-89 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.
Substandard. A homogeneous retail substandard loan, risk rated 8, is 90-180 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.
Loss. A homogeneous retail loss loan, risk rated 10, becomes past due 180 cumulative days from the contractual due date. These loans are generally charged-off in the month in which the 180 day period elapses.
Residential and home equity loans modified in a troubled debt restructure are not considered homogeneous. The risk rating classification for such loans are based on the non-homogeneous definitions noted above.

For a detailed discussion on credit quality, see Note 6, Loans and Credit Quality within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when the full and timely collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when the loan becomes 90 days or more past due for principal or interest payment or if part of the principal balance has been charged off. Loans whose repayments are insured by the Federal Housing Authority ("FHA") or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans' Affairs ("VA") are generally maintained on accrual status even if 90 days or more past due.
The following table presents an aging analysis of past due loans by loan portfolio segment and loan class.

NOTE 5–6–DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES:
To reduce the risk of significant interest rate fluctuations on the value of certain assets and liabilities, such as certain mortgage loans held for sale or mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs"), the Company utilizes derivatives, such as forward sale commitments, futures, option contracts, interest rate swaps and swaptions as risk management instruments in its hedging strategy. Derivative transactions are measured in terms of notional amount, which is not recorded in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The notional amount is generally not exchanged and is used as the basis for interest and other contractual payments. We held no derivatives designated as a fair value, cash flow or foreign currency hedge instrumentsinstrument at September 30, 20142015 or December 31, 20132014. Derivatives are reported at their respective fair values in the other assets or the accounts payable and other liabilities line items on the consolidated statements of financial condition, with changes in fair value reflected in current period earnings.
As permitted under U.S. GAAP, the Company nets derivative assets and liabilities when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists between the Company and the derivative counterparty, which are documented under industry standard master agreements and credit support annexes. The Company's master netting agreements provide that following an uncured payment default or other event of default the non-defaulting party may promptly terminate all transactions between the parties and determine a net amount due to be paid to, or by, the defaulting party. An event of default may also occur under a credit support annex if a party fails to make a collateral delivery (which remains uncured following applicable notice and grace periods). The Company's right of offset requires that master netting agreements are legally enforceable and that the exercise of rights by the non-defaulting party under these agreements will not be stayed, or avoided under applicable law upon an event of default including bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.
The collateral used under the Company's master netting agreements is typically cash, but securities may be used under agreements with certain counterparties. Receivables related to cash collateral that has been paid to counterparties is included in other assets on the Company's consolidated statements of financial condition. Any securities pledged to counterparties as collateral remain on the consolidated statement of financial condition. Refer to Note 2,3, Investment Securities of this Form 10-Q for further information on securities collateral pledged. At September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, the Company did not hold any collateral received from counterparties under derivative transactions.
For further information on the policies that govern derivative and hedging activities, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 12,11, Derivatives and Hedging Activities within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

These amounts were not netted against the derivative receivables and payables, because, at an individual counterparty level, the collateral exceeded the fair value exposure at both September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014. |
The ineffective portion of net gain (loss) on derivatives in fair value hedging relationships, recognized in other noninterest income on the consolidated statements of operations, for loans held for investment were $74 thousand and $10 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $86 thousand and $116 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The Company's fair value hedge accounting relationships had loan valuation asset adjustments of $3.5 million and $4.4 million and swap valuation liabilities of $3.5 million and $4.4 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Advances are made to Ginnie Mae mortgage pools for delinquent loan payments. We also fund foreclosure costs and we repurchase loans from Ginnie Mae mortgage pools prior to recovery of guaranteed amounts. Ginnie Mae advances of $9.69.0 million and $7.17.8 million were recorded in other assets as of September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, respectively.
When the Company has the unilateral right to repurchase Ginnie Mae pool loans it has previously sold (generally loans that are more than 90 days past due), the Company then records the loan on its consolidated statement of financial condition. At September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, delinquent or defaulted mortgage loans currently in Ginnie Mae pools that the Company has recognized on its consolidated statements of financial condition totaled $13.724.5 million and $14.321.2 million, respectively, with a corresponding amount recorded within accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. The recognition of previously sold loans does not impact the accounting for the previously recognized MSRs.
Revenue from mortgage servicing, including the effects of derivative risk management instruments, consisted of the following.

(3) | Includes pre-tax income of $4.7 million, net of brokerage fees and prepayment reserves, resulting from the sale of single family MSRs during the second quarter ended June 30, 2014. |
All MSRs are initially measured and recorded at fair value at the time loans are sold. Single family MSRs are subsequently carried at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in earnings in the periods in which the changes occur, while multifamily MSRs are subsequently carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.
The fair value of MSRs is determined based on the price that would be received to sell the MSRs in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company determines fair value using a valuation model that calculates the net present value of estimated future cash flows. Estimates of future cash flows include contractual servicing fees, ancillary income and costs of servicing, the timing of which are impacted by assumptions, primarily expected prepayment speeds and discount rates, which relate to the underlying performance of the loans.
The initial fair value measurement of MSRs is adjusted up or down depending on whether the underlying loan pool interest rate is at a premium, discount or par. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the initial fair value of capitalized single family MSRs were as follows.

Key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value for single family MSRs to immediate adverse changes in those assumptions were as follows.

| |
(1) | Represents the expected lifetime average. |
These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the table above demonstrates, the Company’s methodology for estimating the fair value of MSRs is highly sensitive to changes in key assumptions. For example, actual prepayment experience may differ and any difference may have a material effect on MSR fair value. Changes in fair value resulting from changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated without changing any other assumption; in reality, changes in one factor may be associated with changes in another (for example, decreases in market interest rates may provide an incentive to refinance; however, this may also indicate a slowing economy and an increase in the unemployment rate, which reduces the number of borrowers who qualify for refinancing), which may magnify or counteract the sensitivities. Thus, any measurement of MSR fair value is limited by the conditions existing and assumptions made as of a particular point in time. Those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied to a different point in time.
The changes in single family MSRs measured at fair value are as follows.

NOTE 7–8–COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES:
Commitments
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers in accordance with predetermined contractual provisions. These commitments may be for specific periods or contain termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee by the borrower. The total amounts of unused commitments do not necessarily represent future credit exposure or cash requirements in that commitments may expire without being drawn upon.
The Company makes certain unfunded loan commitments as part of its lending activities that have not been recognized in the Company’s financial statements. These include commitments to extend credit made as part of the Company's mortgage lending activities and interest rate lock commitments on loans the Company intends to hold in its loans held for investment portfolio. The aggregate amount of these unrecognized unfunded loan commitments existing at September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014 was $61.633.9 million and $18.472.0 million, respectively.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company extends secured and unsecured open-end loans to meet the financing needs of its customers. Undistributed construction loan commitments, where the Company has an obligation to advance funds for construction progress payments, were $327.5410.4 million and $168.5379.4 million at September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, respectively. Unused home equity and commercial banking funding lines totaled $151.9158.1 million and $154.0149.4 million at September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, respectively. The Company has recorded an allowance for credit losses on loan commitments, included in accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition, of $264$965 thousand and $181$503 thousand at September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, respectively.
Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, the Company sells loans through the Fannie Mae Multifamily Delegated Underwriting and Servicing Program (“DUS"®)1 that are subject to a credit loss sharing arrangement. The Company services the loans for Fannie Mae and shares in the risk of loss with Fannie Mae under the terms of the DUS contracts. Under the program, the DUS lender is contractually responsible for the first 5% of losses and then shares equally in the remainder of losses with Fannie Mae with a maximum lender loss of 20% of the original principal balance of each DUS loan. For loans that have been sold through this program, a liability is recorded for this loss sharing arrangement under the accounting guidance for guarantees. As of September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, the total unpaid principal balance of loans sold under this program was $703.2$866.9 million and $720.4752.6 million, respectively. The Company’s reserve liability related to this arrangement totaled $1.82.9 million and $2.0$2.3 million at September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014., respectively. There were no actual losses incurred under this arrangement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015 and 20132014.
Mortgage repurchase liability
In the ordinary course of business, the Company sells residential mortgage loans to GSEs that include the mortgage loans in GSE-guaranteed mortgage securitizations. In addition, the Company sells FHA-insured and VA-guaranteed mortgage loans that are sold to Ginnie Mae and are used to back Ginnie Mae-guaranteed securities. The Company has made representations and warranties that the loans sold meet certain requirements. The Company may be required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify loan purchasers due to defects in the origination process of the loan, such as documentation errors, underwriting errors and judgments, early payment defaults and fraud.
These obligations expose the Company to any credit loss on the repurchased mortgage loans after accounting for any mortgage insurance that it may receive. Generally, the maximum amount of future payments the Company would be required to make for breaches of these representations and warranties would be equal to the unpaid principal balance of such loans that are deemed to have defects that were sold to purchasers plus, in certain circumstances, accrued and unpaid interest on such loans and certain expenses.
The Company does not typically receive repurchase requests from Ginnie Mae, FHA or VA. As an originator of FHA-insured or VA-guaranteed loans, the Company is responsible for obtaining the insurance with FHA or the guarantee with the VA. If loans are later found not to meet the requirements of FHA or VA, through required internal quality control reviews or through agency audits, the Company may be required to indemnify FHA or VA against losses. The loans remain in Ginnie Mae pools unless and until they are repurchased by the Company. In general, once a FHA or VA loan becomes 90 days past due, the Company repurchases the FHA or VA residential mortgage loan to minimize the cost of interest advances on the loan. If the loan is cured through borrower efforts or through loss mitigation activities, the loan may be resold into a Ginnie Mae pool. The Company's liability for mortgage loan repurchase losses incorporates probable losses associated with such indemnification.
The total unpaid principal balance of loans sold on a servicing-retained basis that were subject to the terms and conditions of these representations and warranties totaled $10.68$14.36 billion and $11.8911.30 billion as of September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, respectively. At September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, the Company had recorded a mortgage repurchase liability for loans sold on a servicing-retained and servicing-released basis, included in accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition, of $1.73.2 million and $1.32.0 million, respectively.
Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company may have various legal claims and other similar contingent matters outstanding for which a loss may be realized. For these claims, the Company establishes a liability for contingent losses when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. For claims determined to be reasonably possible but not probable of resulting in a loss, there may be a range of possible losses in excess of the established liability. At September 30, 20142015, we reviewed our legal claims and determined that there were no claims that are considered to be probable or reasonably possible of resulting in a loss. As a result, the Company did not have any amounts reserved for legal claims as of September 30, 20142015.
NOTE 8–9–FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT:
For a further discussion of fair value measurements, including information regarding the Company’s valuation methodologies and the fair value hierarchy, see Note 18, Fair Value Measurement within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Valuation Processes
The Company has various processes and controls in place to ensure that fair value measurements are reasonably estimated. The Finance Committee provides oversight and approves the Company’s Asset/Liability Management Policy ("ALMP"). The Company's ALMP governs, among other things, the application and control of the valuation models used to measure fair value. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") and the Finance Committee of the Board review significant modeling variables used to measure the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, including the significant inputs used in the valuation of single family MSRs. Additionally, at least annually ALCO obtains an independent review of the MSR valuation process and procedures, including a review of the model architecture and the valuation assumptions. The Company obtains an MSR valuation from an independent valuation firm monthly to assist with the validation of the fair value estimate and the reasonableness of the assumptions used in measuring fair value.
The Company’s real estate valuations are overseen by the Company’s appraisal department, which is independent of the Company’s lending and credit administration functions. The appraisal department maintains the Company’s appraisal policy and recommends changes to the policy subject to approval by the Company’s Loan Committee and the Credit Committee of the Board. The Company’s appraisals are prepared by independent third-party appraisers and the Company’s internal appraisers. Single family appraisals are generally reviewed by the Company’s single family loan underwriters. Single family appraisals with unusual, higher risk or complex characteristics, as well as commercial real estate appraisals, are reviewed by the Company’s appraisal department.
We obtain pricing from third party service providers for determining the fair value of a substantial portion of our investment securities available for sale. We have processes in place to evaluate such third party pricing services to ensure information obtained and valuation techniques used are appropriate. For fair value measurements obtained from third party services, we monitor and review the results to ensure the values are reasonable and in line with market experience for similar classes of securities. While the inputs used by the pricing vendor in determining fair value are not provided, and therefore unavailable for our review, we do perform certain procedures to validate the values received, including comparisons to other sources of valuation (if available), comparisons to other independent market data and a variance analysis of prices by Company personnel that are not responsible for the performance of the investment securities.
Estimation of Fair Value
Fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available. In cases where a quoted price for an asset or liability is not available, the Company uses valuation models to estimate fair value. These models incorporate inputs such as forward yield curves, loan prepayment assumptions, expected loss assumptions, market volatilities, and pricing spreads utilizing market-based inputs where readily available. The Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with those that would be used by other market participants. However, imprecision in estimating unobservable inputs and other factors may result in these fair value measurements not reflecting the amount realized in an actual sale or transfer of the asset or liability in a current market exchange.
The following table summarizes the fair value measurement methodologies, including significant inputs and assumptions, and classification of the Company’s assets and liabilities.
|
| | | | |
Asset/Liability class | | Valuation methodology, inputs and assumptions | | Classification |
Cash and cash equivalents | | Carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of the instruments. | | Estimated fair value classified as Level 1. |

If market prices are not readily available, value is based on discounted cash flows using the following significant inputs: • Expected prepayment speeds • Estimated credit losses • Market liquidity adjustments | | Level 2 recurring fair value measurement |
Investment securities held to maturity | | Observable market prices of identical or similar securities are used where available. If market prices are not readily available, value is based on discounted cash flows using the following significant inputs: • Expected prepayment speeds • Estimated credit losses • Market liquidity adjustments | | Carried at amortized cost.

Estimated fair value classified as Level 2. |
Loans held for investment | | | | |
Loans held for investment, excluding collateral dependent loans and loans transferred from held for sale | | Fair value is based on discounted cash flows, which considers the following inputs: • Current lending rates for new loans • Expected prepayment speeds • Estimated credit losses • Market liquidity adjustments | | For the carrying value of loans see Note 1–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of thisthe 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-Q.10-K.
Estimated fair value classified as Level 3. |
|
| | | | |
Asset/Liability class | | Valuation methodology, inputs and assumptions | | Classification |
Loans held for investment, collateral dependent | | Fair value is based on appraised value of collateral, which considers sales comparison and income approach methodologies. Adjustments are made for various factors, which may include: • Adjustments for variations in specific property qualities such as location, physical dissimilarities, market conditions at the time of sale, income producing characteristics and other factors
• Adjustments to obtain “upon completion” and “upon stabilization” values (e.g., property hold discounts where the highest and best use would require development of a property over time)
• Bulk discounts applied for sales costs, holding costs and profit for tract development and certain other properties
| | Carried at lower of amortized cost or fair value of collateral, less the estimated cost to sell.
Classified as a Level 3 nonrecurring fair value measurement in periods where carrying value is adjusted to reflect the fair value of collateral.

There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015 and 20132014.
Level 3 Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company's level 3 recurring fair value measurements consist of single family mortgage servicing rights, single family loans held for investment where fair value option was elected and interest rate lock commitments, which are accounted for as derivatives. For information regarding fair value changes and activity for single family MSRs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015 and 20132014, see Note 6,7, Mortgage Banking Operations of this Form 10-Q.
During the first quarter of 2015, the Company transferred certain loans from held for sale to held for investment. These loans were originated as held for sale loans where the Company has elected fair value option. The Company determined these loans to be level 3 recurring assets as the valuation technique included a significant unobservable input. The total amount of held for investment loans where fair value option election was made was $23.8 million at September 30, 2015.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets held by the Company are not included in the tables above, but are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include certain loans held for investment and other real estate owned that are carried at the lower of cost or fair value of the underlying collateral, less the estimated cost to sell. The estimated fair values of real estate collateral are generally based on internal evaluations and appraisals of such collateral, which use the market approach and income approach methodologies. All impaired loans are subject to an internal evaluation completed quarterly by management as part of the allowance process.
The fair value of commercial properties are generally based on third-party appraisals that consider recent sales of comparable properties, including their income generatingincome-generating characteristics, adjusted (generally based on unobservable inputs) to reflect the general assumptions that a market participant would make when analyzing the property for purchase. The Company uses a fair value of collateral technique to apply adjustments to the appraisal value of certain commercial loans held for investment that are collateralized by real estate. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015, and September 30, 2014, the Company recorded no adjustments to the appraisal values of certain commercial loans held for investment that are collateralized by real estate.
The Company uses a fair value of collateral technique to apply adjustments to the stated value of certain commercial loans held for investment that are not collateralized by real estate. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company applied a range of stated value adjustments of 26.2% to 100.0%, with a weighted average rate of 35.2%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company applied a range of stated value adjustments of 25.0% to 100.0%, with a weighted average of 36.3%. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company applied a range of stated value
adjustments of 0.0% to 98.0%, with a weighted average of 18.6%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company applied a range of stated value adjustments of 0.0% to 98.0%, with a weighted average rate of 18.6%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company applied a range of stated value adjustments of 0.0% to 98.0%, with a weighted average rate of 22.5%. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company used a fair value of collateral technique to apply an adjustment to the appraisal value of certain OREO using a range of discount adjustments of 0.0% to 18.0%, with a weighted
average rate of 2.5%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company applied a range of discount adjustments of 0.0% to 18.0%, with a weighted average rate of 0.4%. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company did not apply any discount adjustments to the appraisal value of loans held for investment or OREO.
Residential properties are generally based on unadjusted third-party appraisals. Factors considered in determining the fair value include geographic sales trends, the value of comparable surrounding properties as well as the condition of the property.
These adjustments include management assumptions that are based on the type of collateral dependent loan and may increase or decrease an appraised value and canvalue. Management adjustments vary significantly depending on the location, physical characteristics and income producing potential of each individual property. The quality and volume of market information available at the time of the appraisal can vary from period-to-period and cause significant changes to the nature and magnitude of the unobservable inputs used. Given these variations, changes in these unobservable inputs are generally not a reliable indicator for how fair value will increase or decrease from period to period.
The following tables present assets that had changes in their recorded fair value during the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015 and 20132014 and still held at the end of the respective reporting period.

|
Nonvested at September 30, 2014 | 120,037 |
| | $ | 18.26 |
|
At September 30, 2014, there was $1.7 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested restricted shares. Unrecognized compensation costs are generally expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.3 years. Restricted shares granted to non-employee directors vest one-third at each one year anniversary from the grant date.
Certain restricted stock awards granted to senior management during the second quarter of 2014 contain both service conditions and performance conditions. Performance share units ("PSUs") are stock awards where the number of shares ultimately received by the employee depends on the company’s performance against specified targets and vest over a three-year period. The fair value of each PSU is determined on the grant date, based on the company’s stock price, and assumes that performance targets will be achieved. Over the performance period, the number of shares of stock that will be issued is adjusted upward or downward based upon the probability of achievement of performance targets. The ultimate number of shares issued and the related compensation cost recognized as expense will be based on a comparison of the final performance metrics to the specified targets. Compensation cost will be recognized over the requisite three-year service period on a straight-line basis and adjusted for changes in the probability that the performance targets will be achieved.
NOTE 11–BUSINESS SEGMENTS:
The Company's business segments are determined based on the products and services provided, as well as the nature of the related business activities, and they reflect the manner in which financial information is currently evaluated by management.
As a result of a change in The Company organizes the manner in which management evaluates strategic decisions, commencing with the second quarter of 2013, the Company realigned its business segments and organized them into two lines of business: Commercial and Consumer Banking segment and Mortgage Banking segment. In conjunction with this realignment, the Company modified its internal reporting to provide discrete financial information to management for these two business segments. The information that follows has been revised to reflect the current business segments.
A description of the Company's business segments and the products and services that they provide is as follows.
Commercial and Consumer Banking provides diversified financial products and services to our commercial and consumer customers through bank branches and through ATMs, online, mobile and telephone banking. These products and services include deposit products; residential, consumer, business and agricultural portfolio loans; non-deposit investment products; insurance products and cash management services. We originate construction loans, bridge loans and permanent loans for our portfolio primarily on single family residences, and on office, retail, industrial and multifamily property types. We originate multifamily real estate loans through our Fannie Mae DUS business, whereby loans are sold to or securitized by Fannie Mae, while the Company generally retains the servicing rights. This segment is also responsible for the management of the Company's portfolio of investment securities.
Mortgage Banking originates single family residential mortgage loans for sale in the secondary markets. We have become a rated originator and servicer of non-conforming jumbo loans, allowing us to sell these loans to other securitizers. We also purchase loans from WMS Series LLC through a correspondent arrangement with that company. The majority of our mortgage loans are sold to or securitized by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, while we retain the right to service these loans. On occasion, we may sell a portion of our MSR portfolio. We also sell loans on a servicing-released and servicing-retained basis to securitizers and correspondent lenders. A small percentage of our loans are brokered to other lenders or sold on a servicing-released basis to correspondent lenders. We manage the loan funding and the interest rate risk associated with the secondary market loan sales and the retained single family mortgage servicing rights within this business segment.
Financial highlights by operating segment were as follows.

Management’s Overview of Third Quarter 2014of 2015 Financial Performance
We are a diversified financial services company founded in 1921 and headquartered in Seattle, Washington, serving customers primarily in the Pacific Northwest, California and Hawaii. HomeStreet, Inc. is principally engaged in real estate lending, including mortgage banking activities, and commercial and consumer banking. Our primary subsidiaries are HomeStreet Bank and HomeStreet Capital Corporation. The Bank is a Washington state-chartered savings bank that provides consumer, mortgage and commercial loans, deposit products and services, non-deposit investment products, private banking and cash management services. Our primary loan products include consumer loans, single family residential mortgages, loans secured by commercial real estate, construction loans for residential and commercial real estate projects, commercial business loans and agricultural loans. HomeStreet Capital Corporation, a Washington corporation, originates, sells and services multifamily mortgage loans under the Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing Program (“DUS"®)1 in conjunction with HomeStreet Bank. Doing business as HomeStreet Insurance Agency, we provide insurance products and services for consumers and businesses. We also offer single family home loans through our partial ownership in an affiliated business arrangement with WMS Series LLC, whose businesses are known as Windermere Mortgage Services and Penrith Home Loans.
Reflecting the continued growth and diversification of our banking business, we are in the process of applying for a conversion to a Washington State Chartered Commercial Bank. To facilitate this bank charter conversion, we are also, simultaneously, in the process of applying to become a Bank Holding Company and a Financial Holding Company. Subject to regulatory approvals, we anticipate these organizational changes to become effective by the end of the year.
We generate revenue by earning “net interest income” and “noninterest income.” Net interest income is primarily the difference between interest income earned on loans and investment securities less the interest we pay on deposits and other borrowings. We earn noninterest income from the origination, sale and servicing of loans and from fees earned on deposit services and investment and insurance sales.
On September 28, 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Orange County Business Bank ("OCBB"), a California banking corporation in Irvine, California. Management believes that this acquisition will complement HomeStreet's recent expansion of its banking activities into California. The proposed transaction was approved by the boards of both companies and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2016, subject to certain conditions set forth in the merger agreement as well as customary closing conditions, including OCBB shareholder approval and certain state and federal regulatory approvals.
On August 4, 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a bank branch and deposits in Dayton, Washington. This acquisition, which has received regulatory approval and is expected to close in December, will increase HomeStreet’s network of branches in Eastern Washington to a total of five retail deposit branches.
On March 1, 2015, the Company completed its merger with Simplicity Bancorp, Inc., located in Southern California ("Simplicity"), immediately followed by the merger of its subsidiary Simplicity Bank with and into HomeStreet Bank (together, referred to as the “Simplicity merger”). At the closing, there were 7,180,005 shares of Simplicity common stock, par value $0.01, outstanding, all of which were cancelled in exchange for an equal number of shares of HomeStreet common stock, no par value, issued to Simplicity’s stockholders. The provisional application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in a bargain purchase gain of $7.3 million, as subsequently adjusted, which was reported as a component of noninterest income on our consolidated statements of operations. We also recorded merger-related expenses of $15.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014,2015. The results of operations of Simplicity are included in the consolidated results of operations since the date of the merger. The merger represents a significant expansion of HomeStreet’s banking activities into California.
During the first quarter of 2015, we launched HomeStreet Commercial Capital, a commercial real estate lending group originating permanent loans up to $10 million in size. The group is based in Orange County, California and will provide permanent financing for a range of commercial real estate loans including multifamily, industrial, retail, office, mobile home parks and self-storage facilities. We also added a team specializing in U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") lending also located in Orange County, California.
At September 30, 2015, we had total assets of $3.47$4.98 billion, net loans held for investment of $1.96$3.01 billion, deposits of $2.43$3.31 billion and shareholders’ equity of $294.6$460.5 million. Through the Simplicity merger, we added $850.9 million of assets, $664.1 million of loans and $651.2 million of deposits.
Results for the third quarter of 20142015 reflect the continued growth of our mortgage banking business and investments to expandexpansion of our commercial and consumer business. Since September 2013,2014, we have increased our lending capacity by adding loan origination and operations personnel in all of our lending lines of business. We added 19nine home loan centers one commercial lending center, one residential construction center and 10 retail deposit branches four

(three de novo and sixseven from acquisitions,the Simplicity merger) to bring our total home loan centers to 55,64, our total commercial lending centers to fivesix and our total retail deposit branches to 33.
On September 29, 2014, HomeStreet announced plans to merge with Simplicity Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation and savings and loan holding company headquartered in Covina, California. HomeStreet will be the surviving company in the merger. Immediately following the merger, Simplicity Bank, a federally chartered savings bank institution, will merge with HomeStreet Bank with HomeStreet Bank continuing as the resulting bank’s name and brand. The transaction, structured as a stock-for-stock merger, is expected to have a total value of approximately $128.0 million as of the announcement date. On a pro forma basis, the combined company will have approximately $4.32 billion in assets, total deposits of approximately $3.09 billion and loans held for investment of approximately $2.69 billion as of September 30, 2014. At the time of the anticipated closing, the combined company is expected to have a network of more than 100 retail deposit branches and stand-alone lending centers in six states. Upon completion of the merger, the resulting bank will operate under the HomeStreet Bank name and brand. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2015, after obtaining certain approvals of the shareholders of each company and the necessary regulatory approvals.43.
On January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank will becomebecame subject to new capital standards commonly referred to as “Basel III” which raiseraised our minimum capital requirements. For more on the Basel III requirements as they apply to us, please see “Capital“Capital Management – New Capital Regulations"" within the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of this Form 10-Q. In preparation for the higher capital targets under these new regulatory requirements and to better diversify our balance sheet and improve our risk profile, we sold single family mortgage loans that previously were held for investment and sold single family mortgage servicing rights during the first half of the year.
We continued to execute our strategy of diversifying earnings by expanding the commercial and consumer banking business; growing our mortgage banking market share in existing and new markets; growing and improving the quality of our deposits; and bolstering our processing, compliance and risk management capabilities. Despite substantial growth in home loan centers and mortgage production personnel, our production volume has been less than expected due in part to macroeconomic forces and

sluggishness in our markets. In recent periods we have experienced very low levels of homes available for sale in many of the markets in which we operate. The lack of housing inventory has had a downward impact on the volume of mortgage loans that we originate. Further, it has resulted in elevated costs, as a significant amount of loan processing and underwriting that we perform are to qualifying borrowers for mortgage loan transactions that never materialize. The lack of inventory of homes for sale may continue to have an adverse impact on mortgage loan volumes into the foreseeable future.

The additional credit loss provision in the quarter was due in part to overall growth in the loans held for investment portfolio, partially offset by the favorable impact of net loan loss recoveries during the quarter.

Mortgage Banking Segment Results
Mortgage Banking segment net income was $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2015, compared to net income of $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared to a net loss of $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2013.

Regulatory Matters
On January 1, 2015, the Bank and the Company became subject to Basel III capital standards. The Bank remains well-capitalized, withand the Company remain above current “well-capitalized” regulatory minimums. Under the Basel III standards, the Bank's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios at September 30, 2015 were 9.69% and 14.15%, respectively. The Company's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.00% and 12.79%, respectively. At September 30, 2014 of, under the Basel I standards, the Bank's Tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital ratios were 9.63% and 13.96%, respectively, compared with 10.85% and 18.44% at September 30, 2013. The decline in the Bank's capital ratios from September 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the fourth quarter 2013 cash acquisitions of Fortune Bank, Yakima National Bank and two branches from AmericanWest Bank, which resulted in $14.4 million of net intangible assets at September 30, 2014 which are not included as capital for regulatory purposes and resulted in an increase in average and risk-weighted assets, as well as overall growth in total risk-weighted assets.
On January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank will become subject to new capital standards commonly referred to as “Basel III” which raise our minimum capital requirements. For more on the Basel III requirements as they apply to us, please see ““Capital Management – New Capital Regulations"" within the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of this Form 10-Q. In preparation for the higher capital targets under these new regulatory requirements and to better diversify our balance sheet and improve our risk profile, we sold single family mortgage loans that previously were held for investment and sold single family mortgage servicing rights during the first half of the year.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are fundamental to understanding our results of operations and financial condition because they require that we use estimates and assumptions that may affect the value of our assets or liabilities and financial results. Three of these policies are critical because they require management to make subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These policies govern:
Allowance for Loan Losses
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Single Family mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") and other
Other real estate owned ("OREO")
Income Taxes
These policies and estimates are described in further detail in Part II, Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Business Combinations
The Simplicity acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of acquisition date. The Company made significant estimates and exercised significant judgment in estimating the fair values and accounting for such acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The valuation of acquired loans, mortgage servicing rights, premises and equipment, core deposit intangibles, deferred taxes, deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and any contingent liabilities that arise as a result of the transaction are considered preliminary and such fair value estimates are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the acquisition date or when additional information relative to the closing date fair values becomes available and such information is considered final, whichever is earlier.
The Company used valuation models to estimate the fair value for certain assets and liabilities. These models incorporate inputs such as forward yield curves, loan prepayment expectations, expected credit loss assumptions, market volatilities, and pricing spreads utilizing market-based inputs where available. We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with those that would be used by other market participants. However, imprecision in estimating unobservable inputs and other factors may result in these fair value measurements not reflecting the amount that could be realized in an actual sale or transfer of the asset or liability in a current market exchange.

Interest on Nonaccrual Loans
We do not include interest collected on nonaccrual loans in interest income. When we place a loan on nonaccrual status, we reverse the accrued unpaid interest receivable against interest income and amortization of any net deferred fees is suspended. Additionally, if interest is received on nonaccrual loans, the interest collected on the loan is recognized as an adjustment to the cost basis of the loan. The net decrease to interest income due to adjustments made for nonaccrual loans, including the effect of additional interest income that would have been recorded during the period if the loans had been accruing, was $713$488 thousand and $1.2 million$713 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 20142015 and 2013,2014, respectively, and $2.2$1.8 million and $3.6$2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 20142015 and 2013,2014, respectively.
Net Income
Net income was $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $5.0 million from net income of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014,, an increase of $3.3 million from net income of $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, primarily due to higher average balances of interest-earning assets and higher net gain on mortgage loan origination and sale activities. For the first nine months of 2014, net income was $16.6 million, a decrease of $8.0 million, or 32.6%, from $24.7 million for the first nine months of 2013. The decline in net income from the first nine months of 2013 mainly resulted from a decreasean increase in noninterest income, primarilywhich is largely due to a significantly lowerhigher gain on mortgage loan origination and sale activities driven by lowerhigher single family interest rate lock commitments. Interest rate lock commitments increased as a result of the expansion of our mortgage lending network and higher loan production per loan producer as a result of lower mortgage interest rates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net income was $32.6 million, an increase of $16.0 million, or 96.2%, from $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Included in noninterestnet income for the firstthree and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were merger-related costs (net of 2014 were a $4.7tax) of $284 thousand and $10.3 million, pre-tax net increase in mortgage servicing income resulting fromrespectively. Additionally, during the sale of MSRsthree and a $4.6 million pre-tax gain on single family mortgage origination and sale activities from the sale of loans that were originally held for investment. No similar transactions occurred in the first nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded bargain purchase gain, as subsequently adjusted, of 2013.$796 thousand and $7.3 million, respectively. Such merger-related costs (net of tax) relating to prior acquisitions totaled $469 thousand and $1.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.
Net Interest Income
Our profitability depends significantly on net interest income, which is the difference between income earned on our interest-earning assets, primarily loans and investment securities, and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest-bearing liabilities consist primarily of deposits and borrowed funds, including our outstanding trust preferred securities and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB").
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $40.2 million for the third quarter of 2015, an increase of $14.5 million, or 56.1%, from $25.8 million for the third quarter of 2014, an increase of $4.8 million, or 22.8%, from $21.0 million for the third quarter of 2013.

For the third quarter of 20142015, mortgage servicing income was $6.2$4.8 million,, an increase a decrease of $2.1$1.4 million, or 53.5%22.5%, from $4.0$6.2 million in the third quarter of 20132014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, mortgage servicing income was $10.9 million, a decrease of $13.4 million, or 55.1%, from $24.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in comparative quarters was primarily attributable to a $2.3 million decrease in the changes in fair value of MSRs due to improvedmodeled amortization and an $821 thousand decrease in risk management results. The decrease in the changes in fair value of MSRs due to modeled amortization occurred as a result of higher current loan prepayments. The decrease in risk management results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily attributable to a pre-tax gain of $4.7 million included in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, resulting from the sale of single family MSRs, as well as gains from model assumption adjustments in 2014 to better align observed borrower prepayment behavior with modeled borrower prepayment behavior.
MSR risk management results represent changes in the fair value of single family MSRs due to changes in model inputs and assumptions net of the gain/(loss) from derivatives economically hedging MSRs. The fair value of MSRs is sensitive to changes in interest rates, primarily due to the effect on prepayment speeds. MSRs typically decrease in value when interest rates decline because declining interest rates tend to increase mortgage prepayment speeds and therefore reduce the expected life of the net servicing cash flows of the MSR asset. Certain other changes in MSR fair value relate to factors other than interest rate changes and are generally not within the scope of the Company's MSR economic hedging strategy. These factors may include but are not limited to the impact of changes to the housing price index, the level of home sales activity, changes to mortgage spreads, valuation discount rates, costs to service and policy changes by U.S. government agencies.
The net performance of our MSR risk management activities for the third quarter of 20142015 was a gain of $3.4$2.6 million compared to a gain of $1.2$3.4 million in the third quarter of 2013.2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, risk management results was a gain of $8.8 million compared to a gain of $15.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The higherlower hedging gain in the first nine months of 2015 largely resulted from the one-time gain of $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2014 largely reflected higher sensitivity to interest rates forresulting from the Company'ssale of single family MSRs, which led the Company to increase the notional amount of derivative instruments used to economically hedge MSRs. The higher notional amount of derivative instruments, along withas well as a steeper yield curve, resultedreduction in higher net gains from MSR risk management, which positively impacted mortgage servicing income. In addition, MSR risk management results for 2014 reflected the impact on the fair value of MSRs of changesmodel assumption adjustments in model inputs and assumptions related2014 to historically lowbetter align observed borrower prepayment speeds experienced during 2014 resulting in lower projectedbehavior with modeled borrower prepayment speeds.behavior.
Mortgage servicing fees collected in the third quarter of 20142015 were $9.4$11.1 million, an increase of $416 thousand,$1.8 million, or 4.7%19.1%, from $8.9$9.4 million in the third quarter of 20132014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, mortgage servicing fees were $30.3 million compared to mortgage servicing fees of $29.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Our loans serviced for others portfolio was $11.38$15.22 billion at September 30, 20142015 compared to $12.61$11.38 billion at December 31, 2013 and $12.06 billion at September 30, 2013.2014. The lower balance at quarter endSeptember 30, 2014 was the result of the June 30, 2014 sale of the rights to service $2.96 billion of single family mortgage loans. Mortgage servicing fees collected in future periods will be negatively impacted in the short term because the balance of the loans serviced for others portfolio was reduced as a consequence of this sale.
Income (loss) from WMS Series LLC in the third quarter of 20142015 was a loss of $122$380 thousand compared to a loss of $550$122 thousand in the third quarter of 20132014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, income from WMS Series LLC was $1.4 million compared to a loss of $69 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The improvement in 20142015 was primarily due to continued low mortgage interest rates which led to a 3.6%35.2% increase in interest rate lock commitments and a 24.4% decrease18.4% increase in closed loan volume, which were$155.1 million and $172.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $114.7 million and $145.8 million, respectively, for the threesame period in 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 20142015, interest rate lock commitments and closed loan volume were $468.2 million and $491.1 million compared to $110.7$346.1 million and $192.9$362.4 million,, respectively, for the same period in 20132014.
Depositor and other retail banking fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20142015 increased from the three and nine months ended September 30, 20132014, primarily driven by an increase in the number of transaction accounts as we grow our retail deposit branch network.network both organically and through the merger with Simplicity.

Mortgage Banking Segment
Mortgage Banking originates single family residential mortgage loans primarily for sale in the secondary markets. We have become a rated originator and servicer of non-conforming jumbo loans, allowing us to sell these loans to other securitizers. We also purchase loans from WMS Series LLC through a correspondent arrangement with that company. The majority of our mortgage loans are sold to or securitized by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, while we retain the right to service these loans. On occasion, we may sell a portion of our MSR portfolio. We also sell loans on a servicing-released and servicing-retained basis to securitizers and correspondent lenders. A small percentage of our loans are brokered to other lenders or sold on a servicing-released basis to correspondent lenders. We manage the loan funding and the interest rate risk associated with the secondary market loan sales and the retained single family mortgage servicing rights within this business segment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments (which include commitments to originate loans and commitments to purchase loans) include potential credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. These transactions are designed to (1) meet the financial needs of our customers, (2) manage our credit, market or liquidity risks, (3) diversify our funding sources and/or (4) optimize capital.
For more information on off-balance sheet arrangements, including derivative counterparty credit risk, see the Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies discussions within Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as Note 14,13, Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 7,8, Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies in this Form 10-Q.
Enterprise Risk Management
All financial institutions manage and control a variety of business and financial risks that can significantly affect their financial performance. Among these risks are credit risk; market risk, which includes interest rate risk and price risk; liquidity risk; and operational risk. We are also subject to risks associated with compliance/legal, strategic and reputational matters.
For more information on how we manage these business, financial and other risks, see the Enterprise Risk Management discussion within Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Credit Risk Management
The following discussion highlights developments since December 31, 20132014 and should be read in conjunction with the Credit Risk Management discussion within Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Loan Underwriting Standards
Our underwriting standards for single family and home equity loans require evaluating and understanding a borrower’s credit, collateral and ability to repay the loan. Credit is determined based on how well a borrower manages their current and prior debts, documented by a credit report that provides credit scores and the borrower’s current and past information about their credit history. Collateral is based on the type and use of property, occupancy and market value, largely determined by property appraisals. A borrower's ability to repay the loan is based on several factors, including employment, income, current debt, assets and level of equity in the property. We also consider loan-to-property value and debt-to-income ratios, loan amount and lien position in assessing whether to originate a loan. Single family and home equity borrowers are particularly susceptible to downturns in economic trends that negatively affect housing prices and demand and levels of unemployment.
For commercial, multifamily and construction loans, we consider the same factors with regard to the borrower and the guarantors. In addition, we evaluate liquidity, net worth, leverage, other outstanding indebtedness of the borrower, an analysis of cash expected to flow through the borrower (including the outflow to other lenders) and prior experience with the borrower. We use this information to assess financial capacity, profitability and experience. Ultimate repayment of these loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity and availability of long-term financing.
Additional considerations for commercial permanent loans secured by real estate:
Our underwriting standards for commercial permanent loans generally require that the loan-to-value ratio for these loans not exceed 75% of appraised value or discounted cash flow value, as appropriate, and that commercial properties attain debt coverage ratios (net operating income divided by annual debt servicing) of 1.25 or better.
Our underwriting standards for multifamily residential permanent loans generally require that the loan-to-value ratio for these loans not exceed 80% of appraised value, cost, or discounted cash flow value, as appropriate, and that multifamily residential properties attain debt coverage ratios of 1.21.20 or better. However, underwriting standards can be influenced by competition and other factors. We endeavor to maintain the highest practical underwriting standards while balancing the need to remain competitive in our lending practices.
Additional considerations for commercial construction loans secured by real estate:
We originate a variety of real estate construction loans. Underwriting guidelines for these loans vary by loan type but include loan-to-value limits, term limits, loan advance limits and pre-leasing requirements, as applicable.
Our underwriting guidelines for commercial real estate construction loans generally require that the loan-to-value ratio not exceed 75% and stabilized debt coverage ratios of 1.25 or better.
Our underwriting guidelines for multifamily residential construction loans generally require that the loan-to-value ratio not exceed 80% and stabilized debt coverage ratios of 1.21.20 or better.
Our underwriting guidelines for single family residential construction loans to builders generally require that the loan-to-value ratio not exceed 85%.
As noted above, underwriting standards can be influenced by competition and other factors. However, we endeavor to maintain the highest practical underwriting standards while balancing the need to remain competitive in our lending practices.

At September 30, 20142015, our loans held for investment portfolio, excluding the allowance for loan losses, was $1.99$3.0 billion, an increase of $90.9$913.8 million from December 31, 2013.2014. During the first quarter of 2015, we added $664.1 million of loans to the portfolio from the Simplicity merger. The allowance for loan losses decreasedincreased to $21.8$26.9 million, or 1.10%0.89% of loans held for investment, compared to $23.9$22.0 million, or 1.26%1.04% of loans held for investment at December 31, 20132014.
In recognitionWe recorded $700 thousand of our improving credit trends and lower charge-offs, we recorded no provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 20142015, compared to no provision recorded in the third quarter of 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a provision of $4.2 million, compared to a reversal of provision of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a reversal of provision of $1.5 million, compared to a provision of $900 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.2014. The additional credit loss provision in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was due in part to an extension in the modeled loan loss emergence period for commercial loans, higher qualitative reserves for construction loans and overall growth in the loans held for investment portfolio.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity risk management is primarily intended to ensure we are able to maintain cash flows adequate to fund operations and meet our obligations, including demands from depositors, draws on lines of credit and paying any creditors, on a timely and cost-effective basis, in various market conditions. Our liquidity profile is influenced by changes in market conditions, the composition of the balance sheet and risk tolerance levels. HomeStreet, Inc., HomeStreet Capital ("HSC") and the Bank
have established liquidity guidelines and operating plans that detail the sources and uses of cash and liquidity.
HomeStreet, Inc., HomeStreet Capital and the Bank have different funding needs and sources of liquidity and separate regulatory capital requirements.
HomeStreet, Inc.
The main source of liquidity for HomeStreet, Inc. is proceeds from dividends from the Bank and HomeStreet Capital. In the past, we have raised longer-term funds through the issuance of senior debt and TruPS. Historically, the main cash outflows were distributions to shareholders, interest and principal payments to creditors and operating expenses. HomeStreet, Inc.’s ability to pay dividends to shareholders depends substantially on dividends received from the Bank.
HomeStreet Capital
HomeStreet Capital generates positive cash flow from its servicing fee income on the DUS portfolio, net of its costs to service the portfolio. Offsetting this are HomeStreet Capital's costs to purchase the servicing rights on new production from the Bank. Liquidity management and reporting requirements for DUS lenders such as HomeStreet Capital are set by Fannie Mae. HomeStreet Capital's liquidity management therefore consists of meeting Fannie Mae requirements and its own operational needs.
HomeStreet Bank
The Bank’s primary short-term sources of funds include deposits, advances from the FHLB, repayments and prepayments of loans, proceeds from the sale of loans and investment securities and interest from our loans and investment securities. We have also raised short-term funds through the sale of securities under agreements to repurchase. While scheduled principal repayments on loans are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The primary liquidity ratio is defined as net cash, short-term investments and other marketable assets as a percent of net deposits and short-term borrowings. At September 30, 20142015, our primary liquidity ratio was 36.1%30.1% compared to 26.9%30.0% at December 31, 20132014.
At September 30, 20142015 and December 31, 20132014, the Bank had available borrowing capacity of $113.8353.0 million and $228.5317.9 million, respectively, from the FHLB, and $390.6388.5 million and $332.7316.1 million, respectively, from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
Cash Flows
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014,2015, cash and cash equivalents increased $779 thousand6.8 million, compared to an increase of $12.6 million779 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.2014. The following discussion highlights the major activities and transactions that affected our cash flows during these periods.
Cash flows from operating activities
The Company's operating assets and liabilities are used to support our lending activities, including the origination and sale of mortgage loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014,2015, net cash of $352.6$233.4 million was used in operating activities, as cash used to fund loans held for sale production exceeded proceeds from the sale of loans. We believe that cash flows from operations, available cash balances and our ability to generate cash through short-term debt are sufficient to fund our operating liquidity needs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013,2014, net cash of $261.4352.6 million was provided byused in operating activities, as cash used to fund loans held for sale production exceeded proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale were largely offset by cash used to fund the production of loans held for sale.loans.
Cash flows from investing activities
The Company's investing activities primarily include available-for-sale securities and loans originated as held for investment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net cash of $280.0 million was used in investing activities, primarily due to cash used for the origination of portfolio loans and principal repayments and purchases of investment securities, partially offset by $112.2 million of net cash acquired from the Simplicity merger. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014,, net cash of $24.2 million was used in investing activities, as the Company increased the balances of its loans held for investment portfolio, primarily offset by the sale of loans originated as held for investment and the sale of investment securities. The Company elected to sell single family mortgage loans during the second quarter of 2014 to provide additional liquidity to support the commercial loan portfolio growth and to reduce the concentration of single family mortgage loans in the portfolio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net cash of $447.7 million was used in investing activities, as the Company increased the balances of its investment securities portfolio and its loans held for investment portfolio.
Cash flows from financing activities
The Company's financing activities are primarily related to customer deposits and net proceeds from the FHLB. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014,2015, net cash of $377.6$520.2 million was provided by financing activities, primarily resulting from net proceeds of $362.5 million of FHLB advances and a $212.7 million growth in deposits. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, net cash of $377.6 million was provided by financing activities, primarily driven by a $214.6 million growth in deposits and net proceeds of $152.0$152.0 million of FHLB advances. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net cash of $199.0 million was provided by financing activities. We had net proceeds of $79.6 million of FHLB advances as the Company grew its investment securities portfolio by $157.3 million and its loans held for investment portfolio by $201.2 million, both of which required additional wholesale funding.
Capital Management
Federally insured depository institutions, such as theHomeStreet, Inc. and HomeStreet Bank are required to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The FDICOn January 1, 2015, the Bank and the Company became subject to Basel III capital standards. Bank regulations currently recognize two types,three components, or tiers, of capital: “corecommon equity Tier 1 capital,” or additional Tier 1 capital and “supplementary capital,” or Tier 2 capital. The FDIC currently measures a bank’s capital using (1) Tier 1 leverage ratio, (2) Common equity risk-based capital ratio, (3) Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and (3)(4) Total risk-based capital ratio. In order to qualify as “well capitalized,” a bank must have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk-basedKey differences between the new capital ratio of at least 6.0% and a Total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%. In order to be deemed “adequately capitalized,” a bank generally must have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 4.0% and a Total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0%. The FDIC retains the right to require a depository institution to maintain a higher capital level based on its particular risk profile.
At September 30, 2014, the Bank's capital ratios continued to meet the regulatory capital category of “well capitalized” as defined by the FDIC’s prompt corrective action rules.
The following tables present the Bank’s capital amounts and ratios.

New Capital Regulations
In July 2013, federal banking regulators (including the FDICrequirements and the FRB) adopted new capital rules (the “Rules”). The Rules applyprior requirements under Basel I, include, but are not limited to, both depository institutions (such as the Bank) and their holding companies (such as the Company). The Rules reflect, in part, certain standards initially adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2010 (which standards are commonly referred to as “Basel III”) as well as requirements contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act.following:
Under the Rules, both the Company and the Bank will be required to meet certain minimum capital requirements. The Rules implement a new capital ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets. Common equity Tier 1 capital generally consists of retained earnings and common stock instruments (subject to certain adjustments), as well as accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) except to the extent that the Company and the Bank exercise a one-time irrevocable option to exclude certain components of AOCI. Both the Company and the Bank expect to electelected this one-time option to exclude certain components of AOCI. Both the Company and the Bank are required to have a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 4.5%. In addition, both the Company and the Bank are required to have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of at least 6.0% and a total risk-based ratio of at least 8.0%. In addition to the preceding requirements, both the Company and the Bank are required to establish a “conservation buffer”, consisting of common equity Tier 1 capital, which is at least 2.5% above each of the preceding common equity Tier 1 capital ratios, the Tier 1 risk-based ratio and the total risk based ratio. An institution that does not meet the conservation buffer will be subject to restrictions on certain activities including payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers. The prompt corrective action rules, which apply to the Bank but not the Company, are modified to include a common equity Tier 1 risk-based ratio and to increase certain other capital requirements for the various thresholds. For example, the requirements for the Bank to be considered well-capitalized under the Rules are a 5.0% Tier 1 leverage ratio, a 6.5% common equity Tier 1 risk-based ratio, an 8.0% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and a 10.0% total risk-based capital ratio. To be adequately capitalized, those ratios are 4.0%, 4.5%, 6.0% and 8.0%, respectively.
The Rules modifymodified the manner in which certain capital elements are determined, including but not limited to, requiring certain deductions related to mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets. When the federal banking regulators initially proposed new capital rules in 2012, the rules would have phased out trust preferred securities as a component of Tier 1 capital. As finally adopted, however, the Rules permit holding companies with less than $15 billion in total assets as of December 31, 2009 (which includes the Company) to continue to include trust preferred securities issued prior to May 19, 2010 in Tier 1 capital, generally up to 25% of other Tier 1 capital. As a result, the Company will not be required to exclude our outstanding trust preferred securities from our Tier 1 capital calculations.
The Rules makemade changes in the methods of calculating certain risk-based assets, which in turn affectsaffected the calculation of risk- based ratios. Higher or more sensitive risk weights are assigned to various categories of assets, among which are commercial real estate, credit facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property, certain exposures or creditcredits that are 90 days past due or are nonaccrual, foreign exposures, certain corporate exposures, securitization exposures, equity exposures and in certain cases mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets. Certain calculations under the rules related to deductions from capital have phase-in periods through 2018. Specifically, the capital treatment of mortgage servicing rights will have an increasingly negative impact our capital ratios as the deductions are phased in through the transition periods. Under the prior rules, the Bank deducted 10% of the value of MSRs (net of deferred tax) from Tier 1 capital ratios. However, under Basel III, the Bank and Company must deduct a much larger portion of the value of MSRs from Tier 1 capital.
MSRs in excess of a 10% threshold must be deducted from common equity. The disallowable portion of MSRs will be phased in incrementally (40% in 2015; 60% in 2016; 80% in 2017) to 100% deduction in 2018.
In addition, the combined balance of MSRs and deferred tax assets is limited to approximately 15% of the Bank’s and the Company’s common equity Tier 1 capital. These combined assets must be deducted from common equity to the extent that they exceed the 15% threshold.
Any portion of the Bank’s and the Company’s MSRs that are not deducted from the calculation of common equity Tier 1 are subject to a 100% risk weight that will increase to 250% in 2018.
In order to qualify as “well capitalized,” a bank must have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0%, a Common equity risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0% and a Total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%. In order to be deemed “adequately capitalized,” a bank generally must have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4.0%, a Common equity risk-based capital of at least 4.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.0% and a Total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0%. The FDIC retains the right to require a depository institution to maintain a higher capital level based on its particular risk profile. In addition to the preceding requirements, both the Company and the Bank are generally required to begin compliance withestablish a “conservation buffer,” consisting of common equity Tier 1 capital, which is at least 2.5% above each of the Rulespreceding common equity Tier 1 capital ratio, the Tier 1 risk-based ratio and the total risk-based ratio. An institution that does not meet the conservation buffer will be subject to restrictions on January 1, 2015.certain activities including payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers. The conservation buffer will be phased in beginning in 2016 and will take full effect on January 1, 2019. Certain calculations
At September 30, 2015, the Bank's capital ratios continued to meet the regulatory capital category of “well capitalized” as defined by the FDIC’s prompt corrective action rules.
The following table presents regulatory capital information for HomeStreet, Inc. and HomeStreet Bank. Information presented for September 30, 2015 reflects the transition to Basel III capital requirements from previous regulatory capital adequacy guidelines under the Rules will also have phase-in periods. We believe that the current capital levels of the Company and the Bank areBasel I effective in compliance with the standards under the Rules including the conservation buffer as of the effective date, and we have taken additional steps, including the sale of MSRs in the quarter ended June 30, 2014, to increase our capital to prepare for compliance with these new standards.2014.

ITEM 3 | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Market Risk Management
For a discussion of the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Part I, Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, Market Risk Management in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014, whichThe following discussion highlights developments since December 31, 20132014 and should be read in conjunction with the Market Risk Management discussion within Part II, Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our 20132014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During the six months ending June 30, 2014, the Company undertook certain actions in order to adjust the interest rate risk sensitivity of its balance sheet. Specifically, the Company reduced the interest rate sensitivity of its available-for-sale investment securities and held-for-investment loan portfolios and extended the maturity of a portion of its FHLB borrowings. As a result of these combined actions, the estimated sensitivity of net interest income is positively correlated with changes in interest rates, meaning an increase (decrease) in interest rates would result in an increase (decrease) in net interest income.
There have been no material changes in the Company���s market risk management since June 30, 2014. Since December 31, 2013,2014, there have been no material changes in the types of risk management instruments we use or in our hedging strategies.
Market risk is defined as the sensitivity of income, fair value measurements and capital to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and other relevant market rates or prices. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are price and interest rate risks. Price risk is defined as the risk to current or anticipated earnings or capital arising from changes in the value of either assets or liabilities that are entered into as part of distributing or managing risk. Interest rate risk is defined as risk to current or anticipated earnings or capital arising from movements in interest rates.
For the Company, price and interest rate risks arise from the financial instruments and positions we hold. This includes loans, mortgage servicing rights, investment securities, deposits, borrowings, long-term debt and derivative financial instruments. Due to the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk. Our real estate loan portfolio is subject to risks associated with the local economies of our various markets and, in particular, the regional economy of the Pacific Northwest and, to a growing extent, California.
Our price and interest rate risks are managed by the Bank’s Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), a management committee that identifies and manages the sensitivity of earnings or capital to changing interest rates to achieve our overall financial objectives. ALCO is a management-level committee whose members include the Chief Investment Officer, acting as the chair, the Chief Executive Officer and other members of management. The committee meets monthly and is responsible for:
understanding the nature and level of the Company's interest rate risk and interest rate sensitivity;
assessing how that risk fits within our overall business strategies;
ensuring an appropriate level of rigor and sophistication in the risk management process for the overall level of risk;
complying with and reviewing the asset/liability management policy;
formulating and implementing strategies to improve balance sheet mix and earnings.
The Finance Committee of the Bank's Board provides oversight of the asset/liability management process, reviews the results of interest rate risk analysis and approves relevant policies.
The spread between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and the relative dollar amounts of these assets and liabilities are the principal items affecting net interest income. Changes in net interest spread (interest rate risk) are influenced to a significant degree by the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities (timing risk), the relationship between various rates (basis risk), customer options (option risk) and changes in the shape of the yield curve (time-sensitive risk). We manage the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio while maintaining a balance between risk and return. The Company's funding strategy is to grow core deposits while we efficiently supplement using wholesale borrowings.
We estimate the sensitivity of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates using an interest rate simulation model that includes assumptions related to the level of balance sheet growth, deposit repricing characteristics and the rate of prepayments for multiple interest rate change scenarios. Interest rate sensitivity depends on certain repricing characteristics in our interest-earnings assets and interest-bearing liabilities, including the maturity structure of assets and liabilities and their repricing characteristics during the periods of changes in market interest rates. Effective interest rate risk management seeks to ensure both assets and liabilities respond to changes in interest rates within an acceptable timeframe, minimizing the impact of interest rate changes on net interest income and capital. Interest rate sensitivity is measured as the difference between the volume of assets and liabilities, at a point in time, that are subject to repricing at various time horizons, known as interest rate sensitivity gaps.
The following table presents sensitivity gaps for these different intervals.

Changes in the mix of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities can either increase or decrease the net interest margin, without affecting interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the interest rate spread between an earning asset and its funding liability can vary significantly, while the timing of repricing for both the asset and the liability remains the same, thereby impacting net interest income. This characteristic is referred to as basis risk. Varying interest rate environments can create unexpected changes in prepayment levels of assets and liabilities that are not reflected in the interest rate sensitivity analysis. These prepayments may have a significant impact on our net interest margin. Because of these factors, an interest sensitivity gap analysis may not provide an accurate assessment of our actual exposure to changes in interest rates.
The estimated impact on our net interest income over a time horizon of one year and the change in net portfolio value as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are provided in the table below. For the scenarios shown, the interest rate simulation assumes an instantaneous and sustained shift in market interest rates and no change in the composition or size of the balance sheet.

At September 30, 2015, we believe our net interest income sensitivity did not exhibit a strong bias to either an increase in interest rates or a decline in interest rates. Since December 31, 2014, the interest rate sensitivity of the Company’s assets has decreased while the interest rate sensitivity of its liabilities has increased. The changes in sensitivity reflect the impact of both higher market interest rates and changes to overall balance sheet composition. It is expected that, as interest rates change, net interest income will be positively correlated with rate movements in the short-term, i.e. an increase (decrease) in interest rates would result in an increase (decrease) in net interest income. Some of the assumptions made in the simulation model may not materialize and unanticipated events and circumstances will occur. In addition, the simulation model does not take into account any future actions that we could undertake to mitigate an adverse impact due to changes in interest rates from those expected, in the actual level of market interest rates or competitive influences on our deposits.

ITEM 4 | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The RegistrantCompany carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
After the closing of the Registrant’s books for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 and during the preparation of the Registrant’s financial statements as of and for the three and nine month periods then ended, management discovered errors in the Registrant’s analysis of hedge effectiveness related to fair value hedge accounting for fourteen commercial loans and related swap or derivative instruments designed to hedge against benchmark interest rate risk (“Hedge Effectiveness Errors”). The loans and related swaps had been originated between 2006 and 2008. Management determined that the loans and related swaps had not been evaluated in accordance with the appropriate fair value hedging methodology. The Hedge Effectiveness Errors resulted in inaccurate calculations of changes in the loan fair values related to changes in the benchmark interest rate. Management further determined that management of the hedging effectiveness analysis and loan valuation by the Treasury Department had been ineffective and that there was insufficient oversight provided by the Accounting Department to ensure adherence to the relevant accounting principles and to provide for an effective system of internal controls relating to these assets and liabilities.
Following the discovery of the Hedge Effectiveness Errors, management determined that the circumstances reflected a deficiency in the Registrant’s internal accounting controls. Management then evaluated the materiality of the Hedge Effectiveness Errors to the current and prior accounting periods and determined the Hedge Effectiveness Errors were immaterial to all relevant periods. Management also evaluated the deficiency in its accounting controls based upon the potential maximum errors that could have resulted from the deficiency. Based upon that evaluation, management determinedour Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Registrant had experienced a material weakness in its internal accountingour disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2014.
Based on Management’s assessment of the Hedge Effectiveness Errors and related internal accounting control weakness, management determined that certain changes in the Registrant’s internal accounting controls and other actions will be implemented during the fourth quarter of 2014, including:
enhanced oversight by the Accounting Department of complex accounting for financial instruments within the Registrant’s Treasury Department;
termination of the swaps related to affected loans during the fourth quarter of 2014, an action that is expected to have no material impact upon the Registrant’s results of operations or financial condition;
terminating any remaining fair value hedge accounting relationships; and
amortizing the previously recorded changes in value of the affected loans over the remaining life of those loans, an amount that in the aggregate is immaterial to the Registrant’s results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, the Registrant had ceased the lending and hedging practices from 2008 that gave rise to these errors and management has no plans to reestablish any similar practices or products.
Management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, the Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective for the reasons set forth above.2015.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 20142015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
On or about October 10, 2014, a putative class action lawsuit related to the merger of Simplicity Bancorp with and into HomeStreet, captioned Bushansky vs. Simplicity Bancorp, Inc., et al. (Cause No. BC560508), was filed in the Superior Court of California, Los Angeles County, against Simplicity, each of Simplicity’s directors and HomeStreet, Inc. The action, brought by a purported shareholder of Simplicity, seeks certification of a class of all holders of Simplicity common stock (except the defendants and their affiliates) and alleges, among other things, that Simplicity’s directors breached their fiduciary duties by putting their personal interests ahead of those of Simplicity’s shareholders and failing to take adequate measures to protect the interests of Simplicity’s shareholders, and further alleges that HomeStreet aided and abetted such alleged breaches. The action seeks, among other things, an injunction against the merger and damages, as well as recovery of the costs of the action, including attorneys’ and experts’ fees. HomeStreet believes the claims alleged against it in the actions to be without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously. In addition, Simplicity has informed the Company that it also believes the allegations against it in the actions to be without merit, and that it intends to defend against the claims vigorously.
Because the nature of our business involves the collection of numerous accounts, the validity of liens and compliance with various state and federal lending laws, we are subject to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business related to foreclosures, bankruptcies, condemnation and quiet title actions and alleged statutory and regulatory violations. We are also subject to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business related to employment matters. We do not expect that these proceedings, taken as a whole, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or our results of operations. There are currently no matters that, in the opinion of management, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operation or liquidity, or for which there would be a reasonable possibility of such a loss based on information known at this time.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this report.
We are growing rapidly, and we may be unable to manage our growth properly.
In 2012, HomeStreet completed its initial public offering of common stock.stock (the “IPO”). At that time HomeStreet had been operating under regulatory orders that had been imposed during the financial crisis of 2007 through 2010 as a result of HomeStreet Bank having experienced operating losses, capital impairment, asset quality deterioration and a number of related operational and management issues. In early 2010late 2009 we began recruiting a new management team, and the recapitalization brought about by our initial public offering,IPO, together with aggressive management strategies, helped us substantially improve all of the major aspects of our operations and financial condition. As a result of a combination of these factors, our regulators removed all extraordinary restrictions on our operations by early 2013. In November 2013 we completed the simultaneous acquisitions by merger of Fortune Bank, headquartered in Seattle, and Yakima National Bank, headquartered in Yakima, Washington. In December 2013 we completed the acquisition of two Seattle branches from AmericanWest Bank. In September 2014,March 2015, we announcedcompleted the pending acquisition bySimplicity merger, ofin which we acquired Simplicity Bancorp, Inc. and the merger ofits wholly owned subsidiary Simplicity Bank with HomeStreet Bank ("Simplicity Merger").Bank. That pending merger represents our third whole-bank acquisition in less than two years.years and represents a substantial geographic expansion of our commercial and consumer banking operations. In August 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a bank branch and deposits in Dayton, Washington which we expect to close in the fourth quarter of 2015. Most recently, we announced in September 2015 that we have entered into an agreement to acquire Orange County Business Bank in a merger that we expect will close in early 2016, subject to certain closing conditions, representing additional growth in our commercial banking operations. Simultaneously with this growth of our banking operations through acquisition, we have grown our mortgage origination operations opportunistically but quickly, opening new offices in the San Francisco BayNorthern and Los Angeles areas ofSouthern California starting in 2013, and 2014 while also continuing to grow those operations in our Pacific Northwest offices, and in October 2014 we announced plans to further expandexpanding our mortgage origination operations into Arizona beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014.2014 and Central California in the second quarter of 2015, while also continuing to grow those operations in the Pacific Northwest. We also expanded our residential construction lending activities, opening a new office in Salt Lake City, Utah and adding production personnel in Southern California during 2014 and early 2015.
At the time we completed our IPO, and after giving effect to the $77.6 million in net proceeds from that offering, based on December 31, 2011 balances, we had total assets of approximately $2.4 billion, total deposits of approximately $2.0 billion, and total loans of approximately $1.5 billion, and we had approximately 600 employees. At September 30, 2014,2015, we had total assets of approximately $3.5$4.98 billion, total deposits of $2.4$3.31 billion, total loans of approximately $2.7$3.90 billion, and approximately 1,6002,100 full-time equivalent employees. On a proforma basis giving effect to the Simplicity Merger, as of September 30, 2014, the combined company would have had total assets of approximately $4.1 billion, total deposits of $3.07 billion, and total loans of approximately $3.07 billion. Further, unlike the Fortune Bank and Yakima National Bank acquisitions, which together resulted in only modest geographic expansion, the Simplicity Merger represents a substantial geographic expansion of our commercial and consumer
banking operations. We have plans to continue growing strategically, and we may also grow opportunistically from time to time. Growth can present substantial demands on management personnel, line employees, and other aspects of a bank’s operations, and those challenges are particularly pronounced when growth occurs rapidly. We may face difficulties in managing that growth, and we may experience a variety of adverse consequences, including:
lossLoss of or damage to key customer relationships;
distractionDistraction of management from ordinary course operations;
lossCosts incurred in the process of vetting potential acquisition candidates which we may not recoup;
Loss of key employees or significant numbers of employees;
theThe potential of litigation from prior employers relating to the portability of their employees;
Costs associated with opening new offices and systems expansion to accommodate our growth in employees;
increasedIncreased costs related to hiring, training and providing initial compensation to new employees, which may not be recouped if those employees do not remain with us long enough to be profitable;
challengesChallenges in complying with legal and regulatory requirements in new jurisdictions;
inadequaciesInadequacies in our computer systems, accounting policies and procedures, and management personnel (some of which may be difficult to detect until other problems become manifest);
challengesChallenges integrating different systems, practices, and customer relationships;
anAn inability to attract and retain personnel whose experience and (in certain circumstances) business relationships promote the achievement of our strategic goals; and
increasingIncreasing volatility in our operating results as we progress through these initiatives.
The pending acquisitionintegration of Simplicityrecent and any future acquisitions into HomeStreet could consume significant resources, present significant challenges in integration and may not be successful.
In the fourth quarter of 2013March 2015, we completed our acquisitionsthe Simplicity merger and are continuing to integrate the Simplicity operations into HomeStreet’s operations. We also anticipate closing the acquisition of FortuneOrange County Business Bank Yakima National Bankby merger in early 2016. There are certain risks related to the integration of the Simplicity operations and the two retail branchesanticipated integration of AmericanWestthe Orange County Business Bank operations, and in September 2014similar risks may arise if we announced the Simplicity Merger. While we consider our 2013 acquisitions to be substantially integrated, we expect to close the Simplicity acquisition in the first half of 2015 and we may seek out other acquisitions in the near future as we look for ways to continue to grow our business and our market share. The Simplicity acquisition and anyAny future acquisition we may undertake may involve numerous risks related to the investigation and consideration of the potential acquisition and the costs of undertaking such a transaction, and if we are successful in closing such transaction, the risks inherent in the integrationeach of the acquired assets or entitySimplicity integration, the proposed Orange County Business Bank integration and integration into HomeStreet or HomeStreet Bank of any other assets or entities we may acquire in the future involve inherent risks, including risks that arise after the transaction is completed. These risks include:
Diversion of management's attention from normal daily operations of the business;
Costs incurred in the process of vetting potential acquisition candidates which may not be recouped by the Company;
Difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, and personnel of the acquired companies;
Difficulties in implementing, upgrading and maintaining our internal controls over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures;
Inability to maintain the key business relationships and the reputations of acquired businesses;
Entry into markets in which we have limited or no prior experience and in which competitors have stronger market positions;
Potential responsibility for the liabilities of acquired businesses;
Inability to maintain our internal standards, controls, procedures and policies at the acquired companies or businesses; and
Potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies.
Difficulties in pursuing or integrating any new acquisitions may increase our costs and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. Further, even if we successfully address these factors and are successful in closing the transactionacquisitions and integrating our systems with the acquired systems, together, we may nonetheless experience customer losses, or we may fail to grow the acquired businesses as we intend.
Fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect the value of our assets and reduce our net interest income and noninterest income, thereby adversely affecting our earnings and profitability.
Interest rates may be affected by many factors beyond our control, including general and economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities. IncreasesFor example, increases in interest rates in early 2014 reduced our mortgage revenues in large part by drastically reducing the market for refinancings, which has negatively impacted our noninterest income and, to a lesser extent, our net interest income, as well as demand for our residential loan products and the revenue realized on the sale of loans.loans in the first half of 2014. Our earnings are also dependent on the difference between the interest earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Changes in market interest rates impact the rates earned on
loans and investment securities and the rates paid on deposits and borrowings and may negatively impact our ability to attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory interest rate spreads, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. In addition, changes to market interest rates may impact the level of loans, deposits and investments and the credit quality of existing loans.
In addition, our securities portfolio includes securities that are insured or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises and other securities that are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. The unrealized gains or losses in our available-for-sale portfolio are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized upon sale.
Future interest rate fluctuations may impact the value of these securities and as a result, shareholders' equity, causing material fluctuations from quarter to quarter. Failure to hold our securities until maturity or until market conditions are favorable for a sale could adversely affect our financial condition.
A significant portion of our noninterest income is derived from originating residential mortgage loans and selling them into the secondary market. That business has benefited from a long period of historically low interest rates. To the extent interest rates continue to rise again, particularly if they rise substantially, we may experience a furtheranother reduction in mortgage financing of new home purchases and refinancing. These factors have negatively affected our mortgage loan origination volume and our noninterest income in the past and may do so again in the future.
Current economic conditions continue to pose significant challenges for us and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Despite recent improvementsWe generate revenue from the interest and fees we charge on the loans and other products and services we sell, and a substantial amount of our revenue and earnings comes from the net interest and noninterest income that we earn from our mortgage banking and commercial lending businesses. Our operations have been, and will continue to be, materially affected by the state of the U.S. economy, particularly unemployment levels and home prices. Although the U.S. economy has continued to improve from the recessionary levels of 2008 and early 2009, economic growth has at times been slow and uneven and there is no guarantee that it will continue at the current pace or at all.
A prolonged period of slow growth in the U.S. economy, or any deterioration in general economic conditions and/or the financial markets resulting from these factors, or any other events or factors that may disrupt or dampen the economic recovery, could materially adversely affect our financial results and increasescondition. If economic conditions do not continue to improve or if the economy worsens and unemployment rises, which also would likely result in a decrease in consumer and business confidence and spending, the demand for our credit products, including our mortgages, may fall, reducing our net interest and noninterest income and our earnings.
Housing affordability is directly affected by the level of mortgage interest rates. The housing market recovery has been aided by a protracted period of historically low mortgage interest rates we are continuingthat has made it easier for consumers to operate in an uncertain economic environment, including sluggish nationalqualify for a mortgage and global conditions, accompanied by high unemploymentpurchase a home. Should mortgage rates substantially increase over current levels, it would become more difficult for many consumers to qualify for mortgage credit. This could have a dampening effect on home sales and very low interest rates. Financialon home values.
In addition, financial institutions continue to be affected by changing conditions in the real estate and financial markets, along with an arduous and changing regulatory climate in which regulations passed in response to conditions and events during the economic downturn continue to be implemented. Recent improvements in the housing market may not continue, and a return to a recessionary economy could result in financial stress on our borrowers that may result in volatility in home prices, increased foreclosures and significant write-downs of asset values, all of which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In particular, we may face risks related to market conditions that may negatively impact our business opportunities and plans, such as:
Market developments may affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment patterns, resulting in increased delinquencies and default rates on loans and other credit facilities;
Regulatory scrutiny of the industry could further increase, leading to harshstricter regulation of our industry that could lead to a higher cost of compliance, limit our ability to pursue business opportunities and increase our exposure to the judicial system and the plaintiff’s bar;
The models we use to assess the creditworthiness of our customers may prove less reliable than we had anticipated in predicting future behaviors which may impair our ability to make good underwriting decisions;
If our forecasts of economic conditions and other economic predictions are not accurate, we may face challenges in accurately estimating the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans;
Further erosion in the fiscal condition of the U.S. Treasury may lead to new taxes limiting the ability of the Company to pursue growth and return profits to shareholders; and
Future political developments and fiscal policy decisions may create uncertainty in the marketplace.
If recovery from the economic recession slows or if we experience another recessionary dip, our ability to access capital and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely impacted.
Any restructuring or replacement of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and changes in existing government-sponsored and federal mortgage programs could adversely affect our business.
We originate and purchase, sell and thereafter service single family and multifamily mortgages under the Fannie Mae, and to a lesser extent the Freddie Mac single family purchase programs and the Fannie Mae multifamily DUS program. Since the nationwide downturn in residential mortgage lending that began in 2007 and the placement ofIn 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were placed into conservatorship, and since then Congress, and various executive branch agencies and certain large private investors in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have offered a wide range of proposals aimed at restructuring these agencies. TheWhile the Obama administration hasand certain members of Congress have called for scaling back the role of the U.S. government in, and promoting the return of private capital to, the mortgage markets and the reduction of the role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the mortgage markets by, among other things, reducing conforming loan limits, increasing guarantee fees and requiring larger down payments by borrowers with the ultimate goal of winding down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. As recently as January
2014, the White House reaffirmed the view that housing finance reform should include ending Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s business model.
Notwithstanding the White House’s reaffirmed position, in May 2014 FHFA released a strategic plan relating to the conservatorships of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which no longer involves specific steps to contract Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s market presence, but retains a goalothers have focused on ways to bring additional private capital into the system in order to reduce taxpayer risk. However, Congress has recently considered several bills to reform the housing finance system, including bills that, among other things, would require Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to be wound down after a period of time and place certain restrictions on Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s activities prior to being wound down. We expect that Congress will continue to hold hearings and consider legislation on the future status of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, including proposals that would result in Fannie Mae’s liquidation or dissolution.
We cannot be certain if or when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ultimately will be restructured or wound down, if or when additional reform of the housing finance market will be implemented or what the future role of the U.S. government will be in the mortgage market, and, accordingly, we will not be able to determine the impact that any such reform may have on us until a definitive reform plan is adopted. However, any restructuring or replacement of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that restricts the current loan purchase programs of those entities may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Moreover, we have recorded on our balance sheet an intangible asset (mortgage servicing rights, or MSRs) relating to our right to service single and multifamily loans sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. That MSR asset was valued at $124.6$146.1 million at September 30, 2014.2015. Changes in the policies and operations of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac or any replacement for or successor to those entities that adversely affect our single family residential loan and DUS mortgage servicing assets may require us to record impairment charges to the value of these assets, and significant impairment charges could be material and adversely affect our business.
In addition, our ability to generate income through mortgage sales to institutional investors depends in part on programs sponsored by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, which facilitate the issuance of mortgage-backed securities in the secondary market. Any discontinuation of, or significant reduction in, the operation of those programs could have a material adverse effect on our loan origination and mortgage sales as well as our results of operations. Also, any significant adverse change in the level of activity in the secondary market or the underwriting criteria of these entities could negatively impact our results of business, operations and cash flows.
We may needare subject to increase our capital to be prepared to comply with more stringent capital requirements under Basel III beginning onIII.
As of January 1, 2015.
In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking regulators (including the Federal Reserve and FDIC) jointly announced the adoption of2015, we are subject to new rules relating to capital standards requirements, including requirements contemplated by Section 171 of the Dodd-Frank Act as well as certain standards initially adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which standards are commonly referred to as Basel III. A substantial portion of these rules will applyapplies to both the Company and the Bank, beginning in January 2015. As part of these new rules,including a requirement that both the Company and the Bank will be required to have a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%, have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 6.0% and a total risk-based ratio of 8.0%. In addition, beginning in 2016, both the Company and the Bank will be required to establish a “conservation buffer”, consisting of common equity Tier 1 capital, equal to 2.5%, which means in effect that, once the conservation buffer is fully phased in, in order to prevent certain regulatory restrictions, the common equity Tier 1 capital ratio requirement will be 7.0%, the Tier 1 risk-based ratio requirement will be 8.5% and the total risk-based ratio requirement will be 10.5%. In this regard, anyAny institution that does not meet the conservation buffer will be subject to restrictions on certain activities including payment of dividends, stock repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers. The requirement for a conservation buffer will be phased in beginning in 2016 and will take full effect on January 1, 2019.
AdditionalBeginning in 2015, additional prompt corrective action rules will apply to the Bank, including higher and new ratio requirements for the Bank to be considered well-capitalized. The new rules also modify the manner for determining when certain capital elements are included in the ratio calculations. Under currentthe prior capital standards (Basel I), the effects of accumulated other comprehensive income items included in capital are excluded for the purposes of determining regulatory capital ratios. Under Basel III, the effects of certain accumulated other comprehensive items are not excluded; however, banking organizations that are not required to use advanced approaches, including the Company and the Bank, may make a one-time permanent election to continue to exclude these items. The Company and Bank expect to makemade this election in 2015 in order to avoid significant variations in the level of capital depending upon the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the fair value of the Company's securities portfolio.
In addition, deductions include, for example, the requirement that mortgage servicing rights, certain deferred tax assets not dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in non-consolidated financial entities be deducted from the
new common equity Tier 1 capital to the extent that any one such category exceeds 10% of new common equity Tier 1 capital, or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of new common equity Tier 1 capital. Maintaining higher capital levels may result in lower profits for the Company as we will not be able to grow our lending as quickly as we might otherwise be able to do if we were to maintain lower capital levels. See “Regulation and Supervision of Home Street Bank - Capital and Prompt Corrective Action Requirements - New Capital Regulations” in Item 1 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 previously2014 filed with the SEC.
The sale of approximately 24% of our MSR portfolio in the second quarter of 2014 was consummated in part to facilitate balance sheet and capital management in preparation for Basel III.SEC on March 25, 2015. The application of more stringent capital requirements could, among other things, result in lower returns on invested capital and result in regulatory actions if we were to be unable to comply with such requirements.
We are subject to extensive regulation that may restrict our activities, including declaring cash dividends or capital distributions, and imposes financial requirements or limitations on the conduct of our business.
Our operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governmental authorities, including the FDIC, the Washington Department of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve, and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on part or all of our operations. Because our business is highly regulated, the laws, rules and regulations to which we are subject are evolving and change frequently. Changes to those laws, rules and regulations are also sometimes retroactively applied. Examination findings by the regulatory agencies may result in adverse consequences to the Company or the Bank. We have, in the past, been subject to specific regulatory orders that constrained our business and required us to take measures that investors may have deemed undesirable, and we may again in the future be subject to such orders if banking regulators were to determine that our operations require such restrictions. Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in their supervisory and enforcement activities, including the authority to restrict our operations, adversely reclassify our assets, determine the level of deposit premiums assessed and require us to increase our allowance for loan losses.
The Dodd-Frank Act is expected to increasehas increased our costs of operations and may have a material negative effect on us.
The Dodd-Frank Act significantly changed the laws as they apply to financial institutions and revised and expanded the rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement authority of federal banking regulators. It is also expected to havehaving a material impact on our relationships with current and future customers.
Some of these changes were effective immediately, though manyalthough others are still being phased in gradually. In addition, the statute in many instances calls for regulatory rulemaking to implement its provisions. While somemany of the provisions are now being implemented, such
as the Basel III capital standards, which take effect beginning on January 1, 2015, not all of the regulations called for by
Dodd-Frank have been completed or are in effect, so the precise contours of the law and its effects on us cannot yet be fully understood. The provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and the subsequent exercise by regulators of their revised and expanded powers thereunder could materially and negatively impact the profitability of our business, the value of assets we hold or the collateral available for our loans, require changes to business practices or force us to discontinue businesses and expose us to additional costs, taxes, liabilities, enforcement actions and reputational risk. For example, the Dodd-Frank Act imposes a requirement that private securitizers of mortgage and other asset backed securities retain, subject to certain exemptions, not less than five percent of the credit risk of the mortgages or other assets backing the securities. The regulatory agencies releasedpublished the final Risk Retention rules on October 22, 2014 to be effective in one yearDecember 2014; compliance is required beginning in December 2015 for residential mortgage-backed securitizations and in two yearsDecember 2016 for all other securitization types. See “Regulation and Supervision” in Item 1 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 previously2014 filed with the SEC.SEC on March 25, 2015.
New federal and state legislation, case law or regulatory action may negatively impact our business.
Enacted legislation, including the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as future federal and state legislation, case law and regulations could require us to revise our operations and change certain business practices, impose additional costs, reduce our revenue and earnings and otherwise adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. For instance,
Recent legislation and court decisions with precedential value could allow judges to modify the terms of residential mortgages in bankruptcy proceedings and could hinder our ability to foreclose promptly on defaulted mortgage loans or expand assignee liability for certain violations in the mortgage loan origination process, any or all of which could adversely affect our business or result in our being held responsible for violations in the mortgage loan origination process.
Congress and various regulatory authorities have proposed programs that would require a reduction in principal balances of “underwater” residential mortgages, which if implemented would tend to reduce loan servicing income and which might adversely affect the carrying values of portfolio loans.
The Washington state supreme court has ruled that Mortgage Electronic Registration System, Inc. (“MERS”) does not meet the definition of “beneficiary” under Washington’s deed of trust act, requiring additional steps to be taken to appoint a successor trustee prior to initiating a non-judicial foreclosure in that state or necessitating a judicial foreclosure process for MERS-related mortgages. Court cases in Oregon have brought similar challenges regarding MERS under Oregon state law. While the Oregon Supreme Court has ruled on the appeal of several lower-court MERS cases, enough ambiguity exists in the ruling that we and other servicers of MERS-related loans have elected to foreclose primarily through judicial procedures in Oregon, resulting in increased foreclosure costs, longer foreclosure timelines and additional delays. If state courts in Washington or other states where we do significant business issue similar decisions in the cases pending before them, our foreclosure costs and foreclosure timelines may continue to increase, which in turn, could increase our single family loan delinquencies, servicing costs, and adversely affect our cost of doing business and results of operations.
These or other judicial decisions or legislative actions, if upheld or implemented, may limit our ability to take actions that may be essential to preserve the value of the mortgage loans we service or hold for investment. Any restriction on our ability to foreclose on a loan, any requirement that we forego a portion of the amount otherwise due on a loan or any requirement that we modify any original loan terms may require us to advance principal, interest, tax and insurance payments, which would negatively impact our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Given the relatively high percentage of our business that derives from originating residential mortgages, any such actions are likely to have a significant impact on our business, and the effects we experience will likely be disproportionately high in comparison to financial institutions whose residential mortgage lending is more attenuated.
In addition, while these legislative and regulatory proposals and courts decisions generally have focused primarily, if not exclusively, on residential mortgage origination and servicing, other laws and regulations may be enacted that affect the manner in which we do business and the products and services that we provide, restrict our ability to grow through acquisition, restrict our ability to compete in our current business or expand into any new business, and impose additional fees, assessments or taxes on us or increase our regulatory oversight.
Termination of the merger agreement could adversely impact our financial resultsPolicies and stock price.
On September 27, 2014, we entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which we have agreed to acquire Simplicity Bancorp. We expect to close that transaction in the first half of 2015, but it remains subject to certain closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and certain shareholder approvals. In addition, Simplicity has the ability to terminate the merger agreement in certain circumstances, including in order to pursue a superior offer. If the merger agreement is terminated, there may be various consequences. For example, HomeStreet’s businesses may be impacted adverselyregulations enacted by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the merger, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the merger. HomeStreet has incurred substantial costs in connection with the merger agreement, including legal and accounting fees, investment banking fees, printing charges and filing fees. If the merger agreement is terminated, HomeStreet will be required to recognize an operating expense in the amount of such costs in the period in which the merger agreement is terminated, and unless a termination fee is due from Simplicity in connection with the closing, HomeStreet will not receive any reimbursement for those expenses. Additionally, if the merger agreement is terminated, the market price of our common stock could decline to the extent that the current market prices reflect a market assumption that the merger will be completed.
Pending litigation against Simplicity and HomeStreet could result in an injunction preventing the effective time or a judgment resulting in the payment of damages.
In connection with the merger, purported Simplicity stockholders have filed at least one putative shareholder class action lawsuit against Simplicity, the members of the Simplicity board of directors and HomeStreet. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs seek to enjoin the merger. If the pending case and any similar cases are not resolved, these lawsuits could prevent or delay completion of the merger and result in substantial costs to HomeStreet and Simplicity, including any costs associated with the indemnification of directors and officers. Plaintiffs may file additional lawsuits against HomeStreet, Simplicity and/or the directors and officers of either company in connection with the merger. The defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the merger is completed may adversely affect HomeStreet’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
New CFPB regulations which took effect in January 2014 may negatively impact our residential mortgage loan business and compliance risk.
Our consumer business, including our mortgage, credit card, and other consumer lending and non-lending businesses, may be adversely affected by the policies enacted or regulations adopted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) which under the Dodd-Frank Act has broad rulemaking authority over consumer financial products and services. InFor example, in January 2014 new federal regulations promulgated by the CFPB took effect which impact how we originate and service residential mortgage loans. The newThose regulations, among other things, require mortgage lenders to assess and document a borrower’s ability to repay their mortgage loan. The regulations provide borrowers the ability to challenge foreclosures and sue for damages based on allegations that the lender failed to meet the standard for determining the borrower’s ability to repay their loan. While the regulations include presumptions in favor of the lender based on certain loan underwriting criteria, it is uncertain how these presumptions will be construed and applied by courts in the event of litigation. The ultimate impact of these new regulations on the lender’s enforcement of its loan documents in the event of a loan default, and the cost and expense of doing so, is uncertain, but may be significant. In addition, the secondary market demand for loans that do not fall within the presumptively safest category of a “qualified mortgage” as defined by the CFPB is uncertain.
The new2014 regulations also require changes to certain loan servicing procedures and practices. The new servicing rules will, among other things,practices, which result in increased foreclosure costs and longer foreclosure timelines in the event of loan default, and failure to comply with the new servicing rules may result in additional litigation and compliance risk. On November 20, 2013, the CFPB released its Final Integrated Disclosure Rule (“Rule”) which became effective October 3, 2015 following a recent two month extension on effectiveness from the CFPB. Among other things, the new rule requires lenders to combine the initial Good Faith Estimate and Initial Truth in Lending (“TIL”) disclosures into a single new Loan Estimate disclosure and the HUD-1 and Final TIL disclosures into a single new Closing Disclosure. The definition of an application and timing requirements has changed, and a new Closing Disclosure waiting period has been added. These changes, along with other changes required by the Rule, will require significant systems modifications, process and procedures changes and training. Failure to comply with these new requirements may result in regulatory penalties for disclosure violations under the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”) and the Truth In Lending Act (“TILA”), and private right of action under TILA, and may impact our ability to sell or the price we receive for certain loans.
In addition, the CFPB recently proposedadopted additional rules under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (“HMDA”) that are intended to improve information reported about the residential mortgage market and increase disclosure about consumer access to mortgage credit. As drafted, the proposedThe updates to the HMDA increase the types of dwelling-secured loans that wouldwill be subject to the disclosure requirements of the rule and expandsexpand the categories of information that financial institutions such as the Bank wouldwill be required to report with respect to such loans and such borrowers, including potentially sensitive customer information. If implemented, theseThe rule becomes effective January 1, 2018. These changes wouldmay increase our compliance costs due to the anticipated need for additional resources to meet the enhanced disclosure requirements, including additional personnel and training costs as well as informational systems to allow the Bank to properly capture and report the additional mandated information. In addition, because of the anticipatedThe volume of new data that wouldwill be required to be reported under the updated rules will also cause the Bank wouldto face an increased risk of errors in the information. More importantly, because of the sensitive nature of some of the additional customer information to be included in such reports, the Bank wouldmay face a higher potential for a security breach resulting in the disclosure of sensitive customer information in the event the HMDA reporting files were obtained by an unauthorized party. The comment period for these proposed rules closed on October 29, 2014 and the final rules have not yet been released.
While the full impact of CFPB's activities on our business is still unknown, we anticipate that the proposed rule change under the HMDA and other CFPB actions that may follow may increase our compliance costs and require changes in our business practices as a result of new regulations and requirements and could limit the products and services we are able to provide to customers. We are unable to predict whether U.S. federal, state or local authorities, or other pertinent bodies, will enact legislation, laws, rules, regulations, handbooks, guidelines or similar provisions that will affect our business or require changes in our practices in the future, and any such changes could adversely affect our cost of doing business and profitability. See “Regulation and Supervision - Regulation and Supervision” in Item 1 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 previously filed with the SEC.
Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we report our financial condition and results of operations, and we use estimates in determining the fair value of certain of our assets, which estimates may prove to be imprecise and result in significant changes in valuation.
A portion of our assets are carried on the balance sheet at fair value, including investment securities available for sale, mortgage servicing rights related to single family loans and single family loans held for sale. Generally, for assets that are reported at fair value, we use quoted market prices or internal valuation models that utilize observable market data inputs to estimate their fair value. In certain cases, observable market prices and data may not be readily available or their availability may be diminished due to market conditions. We use financial models to value certain of these assets. These models are complex and use asset-specific collateral data and market inputs for interest rates. Although we have processes and procedures in place governing internal valuation models and their testing and calibration, such assumptions are complex as we must make judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Different assumptions could result in significant changes in valuation, which in turn could affect earnings or result in significant changes in the dollar amount of assets reported on the balance sheet.
If we fail to maintain effective systems of internal and disclosure control, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our securities.
Effective internal and disclosure controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud and to operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results would be harmed. As part of our ongoing monitoring of internal control we may from time to time discover deficiencies in our internal control as defined under standards adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, that require remediation. Under the PCAOB standards, a “material weakness” is a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. A “significant deficiency” is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affect a company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is a more than remote likelihood that a misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
Following the closing of our books for the third quarter of 2014, management discovered a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting relating to the evaluation of certain hedging instruments. Management investigated this deficiency in light of the extent to which misstatements had resulted in our prior period reports, and determined that the amount of actual misstatements was immaterial for each of the prior periods and in the aggregate. However, we also examined the deficiencies in light of the maximum possible error that could have resulted from the deficiencies, and determined that such an amount could have been material. As a result, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q identifies and discusses a deficiency in our disclosure controls and procedures, and notes that we intend to take certain remedial measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting. However, we cannot offer assurances that these remedial measures will completely resolve the deficiencies that we have identified, or that we do not have other undiscovered deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting.
If we discover additional deficiencies in our internal controls, we may also identify defects in our disclosure controls and procedures that require remediation. If we discover additional deficiencies, we will take affirmative steps to improve our internal and disclosure controls. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful. Any failure to maintain effective controls or timely effect any necessary improvement of our internal and disclosure controls could harm operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal and disclosure controls, including the deficiencies identified in this report, could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of our securities.
HomeStreet, Inc. primarily relies on dividends from the Bank and payment of dividends by the Bank may be limited by applicable laws and regulations.
HomeStreet, Inc. is a separate legal entity from the Bank, and although we may receive some dividends from HomeStreet Capital Corporation, the primary source of our funds from which we service our debt, pay any dividends that we may declare to our shareholders and otherwise satisfy our obligations is dividends from the Bank. The availability of dividends from the Bank is limited by various statutes and regulations, as well as by our policy of retaining a significant portion of our earnings to support the Bank's operations. New capital rules will also impose more stringent capital requirements to maintain “well capitalized” status which may additionally impact the Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Company. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –- Capital Management – - New Capital Regulations”Regulations” as well as “Regulation of Home Street Bank - Capital and Prompt Corrective Action Requirements - New CapitalCapital Rules” in Item 1 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 previously2014 filed with the SEC.SEC on March 25, 2015. If the Bank cannot pay dividends to us, we may be limited in our ability to service our debts, fund the Company's operations and acquisition plans and pay dividends to the Company's shareholders. While the Company has made special dividend distributions to its public shareholders in prior quarters, the Company has not adopted a dividend policy and the board of directors has determined that it iswas in the best interests of the shareholders not to declare a dividend to be paid infor each of the third quarter of 2014.last six quarters. As such, our dividends are not regular and are subject to restriction due to cash flow limitations, capital requirements, capital needs of the business or other factors.
We cannot assure you that we will remain profitable.
We have sustained significant losses in the past and our profitability has declined in recent quarters.past. We cannot guarantee that we will remain profitable or be able to maintain the level of profit we are currently experiencing. Many factors determine whether or not we will be profitable, and our ability to remain profitable is threatened by a myriad of issues, including:
Further increasesIncreases in interest rates may continue to limit our ability to make loans, decrease our net interest income and noninterest income, reduce demand for loans, increase the cost of deposits and otherwise negatively impact our financial situation;
Volatility in mortgage markets, which is driven by factors outside of our control such as interest rate changes, housing inventory and general economic conditions, may negatively impact our ability to originate loans and change the fair value of our existing loans and servicing rights;
Changes in regulations thatmay negatively impact the Company or the Bank and may limit our ability to offer certain products or services or may increase our costs of compliance;
Increased costs from growth through acquisition could exceed the income growth anticipated from these opportunities, especially in the short term as these acquisitions are integrated into our business;
Increased costs for controls over data confidentiality, integrity, and availability due to growth or to strengthen the security profile of our computer systems and computer networks;
Changes in government-sponsored enterprises and their ability to insure or to buy our loans in the secondary market may result in significant changes in our ability to recognize income on sale of our loans to third parties;
Competition in the mortgage market industry may drive down the interest rates we are able to offer on our mortgages, which will negatively impact our net interest income;
Changes in the cost structures and fees of government-sponsored enterprises to whom we sell many of these loans may compress our margins and reduce our net income and profitability; and
Our hedging strategies to offset risks related to interest rate changes may not prove to be successful and may result in unanticipated losses for the Company.
These and other factors may limit our ability to generate revenue in excess of our costs, which in turn may result in a lower rate of profitability or even substantial losses for the Company.
Federal, state and local consumer protection laws may restrict our ability to offer and/ or increase our risk of liability with respect to certain products and services and could increase our cost of doing business.
Federal, state and local laws have been adopted that are intended to eliminate certain practices considered “predatory” or “unfair and deceptive”. These laws prohibit practices such as steering borrowers away from more affordable products, failing to disclose key features, limitations, or costs related to products and services, selling unnecessary insurance to borrowers, repeatedly refinancing loans, imposing excessive fees for overdrafts, and making loans without a reasonable expectation that the borrowers will be able to repay the loans irrespective of the value of the underlying property. It is our policy not to make predatory loans or engage in deceptive practices, but these laws and regulations create the potential for liability with respect to our lending, servicing, loan investment and deposit taking activities. As a company with a significant mortgage banking operation, we also, inherently, have a significant amount of risk of noncompliance with fair lending laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are complex and require vigilance to ensure that policies and practices do not create disparate impact on our customers or that our employees do not engage in overt discriminatory practices. Noncompliance can result in significant regulatory actions including, but not limited to, sanctions, fines or referrals to the Department of Justice. As we offer products and services to customers in additional states, we may become subject to additional state and local laws designed to protect consumers. The additional laws and regulations may increase our cost of doing business, and ultimately may prevent us from making certain loans, offering certain products, and may cause us to reduce the average percentage rate or the points and fees on loans and other products and services that we do provide.
The significant concentration of real estate secured loans in our portfolio has had and may continue to have a negative impact on our asset quality and profitability.
Substantially all of our loans are secured by real property. Our real estate secured lending is generally sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions, making loss levels difficult to predict. Declines in real estate sales and prices, significant increases in interest rates, and a degeneration in prevailing economic conditions may result in higher than expected loan delinquencies, foreclosures, problem loans, OREO, net charge-offs and provisions for credit and OREO losses. Although real estate prices are stable in the markets in which we operate, if market values decline, the collateral for our loans may provide less security and our ability to recover the principal, interest and costs due on defaulted loans by selling the underlying
real estate will be diminished, leaving us more likely to suffer additional losses on defaulted loans. Such declines may have a greater effect on our earnings and capital than on the earnings and capital of financial institutions whose loan portfolios are more geographically diversified.
Worsening conditions in the real estate market and higher than normal delinquency and default rates on loans could cause other adverse consequences for us, including:
The reduction of cash flows and capital resources, as we are required to make cash advances to meet contractual obligations to investors, process foreclosures, and maintain, repair and market foreclosed properties;
Declining mortgage servicing fee revenues because we recognize these revenues only upon collection;
Increasing loan servicing costs;
Declining fair value on our mortgage servicing rights; and
Declining fair values and liquidity of securities held in our investment portfolio that are collateralized by mortgage obligations.
Our allowance for loan losses may prove inadequate or we may be negatively affected by credit risk exposures. Future additions to our allowance for loan losses will reduce our earnings.
Our business depends on the creditworthiness of our customers. As with most financial institutions, we maintain an allowance for loan losses to provide for defaults and nonperformance, which represents management's best estimate of probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management's estimate is the result of our continuing evaluation of specific credit risks and loan loss experience, current loan portfolio quality, present economic, political and regulatory conditions, industry concentrations and other factors that may indicate future loan losses. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and requires us to make estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Generally, our nonperforming loans and OREO reflect operating difficulties of individual borrowers and weaknesses in the economies of the markets we serve. This allowance may not be adequate to cover actual losses, and future provisions for losses could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In addition, as a result of our acquisitions of Simplicity Bank on March 1, 2015 and Fortune Bank, Yakima National Bank and two branches of AmericanWest Bank in the second half of 2013, we have added the loans previously held by the acquired companies or related to the acquired branches to our books. The pendingWe expect that the acquisition of SimplicityOrange County Business Bank, which we anticipate completing in early 2016, and any other future acquisitions we may make will have a similar result. Although we review loan quality as part of our due diligence in considering any acquisition, the addition of such loans may increase our credit risk exposure, requiring an increase in our allowance for loan losses or we may experience adverse effects to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows stemming from losses on those additional loans.
Our real estate lending also exposes us to environmental liabilities.
In the course of our business, it is necessary to foreclose and take title to real estate, which could subject us to environmental liabilities with respect to these properties. Hazardous substances or waste, contaminants, pollutants or sources thereof may be discovered on properties during our ownership or after a sale to a third party. We could be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties in connection with environmental contamination, or may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at such properties. The costs associated with investigation or remediation activities could be substantial and could substantially exceed the value of the real property. In addition, as the owner or former owner of a contaminated site, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property. We may be unable to recover costs from any third party. These occurrences may materially reduce the value of the affected property, and we may find it difficult or impossible to use or sell the property prior to or following any environmental remediation. If we ever become subject to significant environmental liabilities, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
A failure in or breach of our security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors and other service providers, resulting from cyber-attacks, could disrupt our businesses, result in the disclosure or misuse of confidential or proprietary information, damage our reputation, increase our costs and cause losses.
Information security risks for financial institutions have generally increased in recent years in part because of the proliferation of new technologies, the use of the Internet and telecommunications technologies to conduct financial transactions, and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, activists, and other external parties. Those parties also may attempt to fraudulently induce employees, customers, or other users of our systems to disclose confidential information in order to gain access to our data or that of our customers. Our operations rely on the secure processing, transmission and storage of confidential information in our computer systems and networks, either managed directly by us or through our data processing vendors. In addition, to access our products and services, our customers may use personal
smartphones, tablet PCs, and other mobile devices that are beyond our control systems. Although we believe we have robust information security procedures and controls, we are heavily reliant on our third party vendors, and our vendors’ or our own technologies, systems, networks and our customers' devices may become the target of cyber-attacks, computer viruses, malicious code, unauthorized access, hackers or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss or destruction of Company or our customers' confidential, proprietary and other information, or otherwise disrupt the Company's or its customers' or other third parties' business operations.
Third parties with which we do business or that facilitate our business activities, including exchanges, clearing houses, financial intermediaries or vendors that provide services or security solutions for our operations, could also be sources of operational and information security risk to us, including from breakdowns or failures of their own systems or capacity constraints. In addition, some of our primary third party service providers may be subject to enhanced regulatory scrutiny due to regulatory findings during examinations of such service provider(s) conducted by federal regulators. While we have and will subject such vendor(s) to higher scrutiny and monitor any corrective measures that the vendor(s) are taking or would undertake, we are not able to fully mitigate any risk which could result from a breach or other operational failure caused by this, or any other vendor’s breach.
To date we are not aware of any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, but there can be no assurance that we will not suffer such attacks and losses in the future. Our risk and exposure to these matters remains heightened because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats, our plans to continue to implement our Internet banking and mobile banking channel, our expanding operations and the outsourcing of a significant portion of our business operations. As a result, cybersecurity and the continued development and enhancement of our controls, processes and practices designed to protect customer information, our systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority for the Company. As cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to insure, to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate important information security vulnerabilities, however, our measures may be insufficient to prevent physical .and electronic break-ins, denial of service and other cyber-attacks or security breaches.
Disruptions or failures in the physical infrastructure or operating systems that support our businesses and customers, or cyber-attacks or security breaches of the networks, systems or devices that our customers use to access our products and services could result in customer attrition, financial losses, the inability of our customers to transact business with us, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties or intervention, additional regulatory scrutiny, reputational damage, litigation, reimbursement or other compensation costs, and/or additional compliance costs, any of which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.
The network and computer systems on which we depend could fail or experience security breaches.
Our computer systems could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. Because we conduct a part of our business over the Internet and outsource several critical functions to third parties, operations will depend on our ability, as well as the ability of third-party service providers, to protect computer systems and network infrastructure against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, physical break-ins or similar catastrophic events. Any damage or failure that causes interruptions in operations may compromise our ability to perform critical functions in a timely manner and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations as well as our reputation and customer or vendor relationships.
In addition, a significant barrier to online financial transactions is the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks. Our Internet banking system relies on encryption and authentication technology to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments could result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms our
third-party service providers use to protect customer transaction data. If any such compromise of security were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The failure to protect our customers’ confidential information and privacy could adversely affect our business.
We are subject to state and federal privacy regulations and confidentiality obligations that, among other things restrict the use and dissemination of, and access to, the information that we produce, store or maintain in the course of our business. We also have contractual obligations to protect certain confidential information we obtain from our existing vendors and customers. These obligations generally include protecting such confidential information in the same manner and to the same extent as we protect our own confidential information, and in some instances may impose indemnity obligations on us relating to unlawful or unauthorized disclosure of any such information.
The actions we may take in order to promote compliance with these obligations vary by business segment and may change over time, but may include, among other things:
training
Training and educating our employees and independent contractors regarding our obligations relating to confidential information;
monitoringMonitoring changes in state or federal privacy and compliance requirements;
draftingDrafting and enforcing appropriate contractual provisions into any contract that raises proprietary and confidentiality issues;
maintainingMaintaining secure storage facilities and protocols for tangible records;
physicallyPhysically and technologically securing access to electronic information;
Performing vulnerability scanning and penetration testing of our computer systems and computer networks to identify potential weaknesses and to develop mitigating controls; and
inIn the event of a security breach, providing credit monitoring or other services to affected customers.
If we do not properly comply with privacy regulations and protect confidential information, we could experience adverse consequences, including regulatory sanctions, penalties or fines, increaseincreased compliance costs, litigation and damage to our reputation, which in turn could result in decreased revenues and loss of customers, all of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our operations could be interrupted if our third-party service and technology providers experience difficulty, terminate their services or fail to comply with banking regulationsregulations.
We depend, and will continue to depend, to a significant extent, on a number of relationships with third-party service and technology providers. Specifically, we receive core systems processing, essential web hosting and other Internet systems and deposit and other processing services from third-party service providers. If these third-party service providers, or if any parties to whom our third party service providers have subcontracted services, experience difficulties or terminate their services and we are unable to replace them with other service providers, our operations could be interrupted and our operating expenses may be materially increased. If an interruption were to continue for a significant period of time, our business financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additionally, if our third-party service and technology providers, including our mortgage loan origination technology provider, fail to update their systems or services in a timely manner to reflect new or changing regulation, our ability to meet regulatory requirements may be impacted and may expose us to heightened regulatory scrutiny and the potential for payment of monetary penalties.
We continually encounter technological change, and we may have fewer resources than many of our competitors to continue to invest in technological improvements.
The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and to reduce costs. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to address the needs of our clients by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy client demands for convenience, as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations. Many national vendors provide turn-key services to community banks, such as Internet banking and remote deposit capture that allow smaller banks to compete with institutions that have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. We may not be able, however, to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our customers.
We may be required to recognize impairment with respect to investment securities, including the FHLB stock we hold.
Our securities portfolio currently includes securities with unrecognized losses. We may continue to observe declines in the fair market value of these securities. We evaluate the securities portfolio for any other than temporary impairment each reporting period. In addition, as a condition of membership in the FHLB,Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (the “FHLB”), we are required to purchase and hold a certain amount of FHLB stock. Our stock purchase requirement is based, in part, upon the outstanding principal balance of advances from the FHLB. Our FHLB stock is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. Future negative changes to the financial condition of the FHLB may require us to recognize an impairment charge with respect to such holdings. The FHLB is currently subject to a Consent Order issued by its primary regulator,See “Regulation and Supervision” in Item 1 of our Form 10-K for the Federal Housing Finance Agency.year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 25, 2015.
A change in federal monetary policy could adversely impact our mortgage banking revenues.
The Federal Reserve is responsible for regulating the supply of money in the United States, and as a result its monetary policies strongly influence our costs of funds for lending and investing as well as the rate of return we are able to earn on those loans and investments, both of which impact our net interest income and net interest margin. The Federal Reserve Board's interest rate policies can also materially affect the value of financial instruments we hold, including debt securities and mortgage servicing rights, or MSRs. These monetary policies can also negatively impact our borrowers, which in turn may increase the risk that they will be unable to pay their loans according to the terms or be unable to pay their loans at all. We have no control
over the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board and cannot predict when changes are expected or what the magnitude of such changes may be.
AsFor example, as a result of the Federal Reserve Board's concerns regarding continued slow economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board, in 2008 implemented its standing monetary policy known as “quantitative easing,” a program involving the purchase of mortgage backed securities and United States Treasury securities, the volume of which has beenwas aligned with specific economic targets or measures intended to bolster the U.S. economy. AsAlthough the Federal Reserve Board through the Federal Open Market Committee (the “Committee”), monitors economic performance, the volume of thehas ended quantitative easing, it still holds the securities purchased during the program continues to be incrementally reduced. The Committee has statedand, if economic conditions worsened, could revive that if incoming information broadly supports the Committee's expectation of ongoing improvement in labor market conditions and inflation moving back toward its longer-run objective, the Committee will likely reduce the pace of asset purchases in further measured steps at future meetings. However, asset purchases are not on a preset course, and the Committee's decisions about their pace will remain contingent on the Committee's outlook for the labor market and inflation as well as its assessment of the likely efficacy and costs of such purchases.program.
Because a substantial portion of our revenues and our net income historically have been, and in the foreseeable future are expected to be, derived from gain on the origination and sale of mortgage loans and on the continuing servicing of those loans, the Federal Reserve Board's monetary policies may have had and for so long as the program continues, may continue to have, the effect of supporting higher revenues than might otherwise be available. Contrarily, a reduction in or termination of this policy, absent a significantIf the rebound in employment and real wages would likely reduceis not adequate to offset the termination of the program, or if the Federal Reserve begins selling off the securities it has accumulated, we may see a reduction in mortgage originations throughout the United States, including ours. Continued reduction or termination of the quantitative easing programand may likely further raisesee a corresponding rise in interest rates, which could reduce our mortgage origination revenues and in turn have a material adverse impact upon our business.
A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from residential mortgage lending which is a market sector that experiences significant volatility.
A substantial portion of our consolidated net revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) are derived from originating and selling residential mortgages. Residential mortgage lending in general has experienced substantial volatility in recent periods. An increase in interest rates in the second quarter of 2013 resulted in a significant adverse impact on our business and financial results due primarily to a related decrease in volume of loan originations, especially refinancings. The Federal Reserve has indicated that interest rates may rise again as early as the fourth quarter of 2015. Any future additionalsuch increase in interest rates may further materially and adversely affect our future loan origination volume, margins, and the value of the collateral securing our outstanding loans, may increase rates of borrower default, and may otherwise adversely affect our business. Additionally, in recent periods we have experienced very low levels of homes available for sale in many of the markets in which we operate. The lack of housing inventory has had a downward impact on the volume of mortgage loans that we originate. Further, it has resulted in elevated costs, as a significant amount of loan processing and underwriting that we perform are to qualifying borrowers for mortgage loan transactions that never materialize. The lack of inventory of homes for sale may continue to have an adverse impact on mortgage loan volumes into the foreseeable future.
We may incur losses due to changes in prepayment rates.
Our mortgage servicing rights carry interest rate risk because the total amount of servicing fees earned, as well as changes in fair-market value, fluctuate based on expected loan prepayments (affecting the expected average life of a portfolio of residential mortgage servicing rights). The rate of prepayment of residential mortgage loans may be influenced by changing national and regional economic trends, such as recessions or depressed real estate markets, as well as the difference between interest rates on
existing residential mortgage loans relative to prevailing residential mortgage rates. Changes in prepayment rates are therefore difficult for us to predict. An increase in the general level of interest rates may adversely affect the ability of some borrowers to pay the interest and principal of their obligations. During periods of declining interest rates, many residential borrowers refinance their mortgage loans. The loan administration fee income (related to the residential mortgage loan servicing rights corresponding to a mortgage loan) decreases as mortgage loans are prepaid. Consequently, the fair value of portfolios of residential mortgage loan servicing rights tend to decrease during periods of declining interest rates, because greater prepayments can be expected and, as a result, the amount of loan administration income received also decreases.
We may incur significant losses as a result of ineffective hedging of interest rate risk related to our loans sold with a reservation of servicing rights.
Both the value our single family mortgage servicing rights, or MSRs, and the value of our single family loans held for sale changes with fluctuations in interest rates, among other things, reflecting the changing expectations of mortgage prepayment activity. To mitigate potential losses of fair value of single family loans held for sale and MSRs related to changes in interest rates, we actively hedge this risk with financial derivative instruments. Hedging is a complex process, requiring sophisticated
models, experienced and skilled personnel and continual monitoring. Changes in the value of our hedging instruments may not correlate with changes in the value of our single family loans held for sale and MSRs, and we could incur a net valuation loss as a result of our hedging activities. Following the expansion of our single family mortgage operations in early 2012 through the addition of a significant number of single family mortgage origination personnel, the volume of our single family loans held for sale and MSRs has increased. The increase in volume in turn increases our exposure to the risks associated with the impact of interest rate fluctuations on single family loans held for sale and MSRs.
Changes in fee structures by third party loan purchasers and mortgage insurers may decrease our loan production volume and the margin we can recognize on conforming home loans, and may adversely impact our results of operations.
Certain third party loan purchasers revised their fee structures in the third quarter of 2013 and increased the costs of doing business with them. For example, certain purchasers of conforming loans, including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, raised costs of guarantee fees and other required fees and payments. These changes increased the cost of mortgages to consumers and the cost of selling conforming loans to third party loan purchasers which in turn decreased our margin and negatively impacted our profitability. Additionally, the FHA raised costs for premiums and extended the period for which private mortgage insurance is required on a loan purchased by them. Additional changes in the future from third party loan purchasers may have a negative impact on our ability to originate loans to be sold because of the increased costs of such loans and may decrease our profitability with respect to loans held for sale. In addition, any significant adverse change in the level of activity in the secondary market or the underwriting criteria of these third party loan purchasers could negatively impact our results of business, operations and cash flows.
If we breach any of the representations or warranties we make to a purchaser or securitizer of our mortgage loans or MSRs, we may be liable to the purchaser or securitizer for certain costs and damages.
When we sell or securitize mortgage loans in the ordinary course of business, we are required to make certain representations and warranties to the purchaser about the mortgage loans and the manner in which they were originated. Our agreements require us to repurchase mortgage loans if we have breached any of these representations or warranties, in which case we may be required to repurchase such loan and record a loss upon repurchase and/or bear any subsequent loss on the loan. We may not have any remedies available to us against a third party for such losses, or the remedies available to us may not be as broad as the remedies available to the purchaser of the mortgage loan against us. In addition, if there are remedies against a third party available to us, we face further risk that such third party may not have the financial capacity to perform remedies that otherwise may be available to us. Therefore, if a purchaser enforces remedies against us, we may not be able to recover our losses from a third party and may be required to bear the full amount of the related loss.
In addition, in connection with the sale of a significant amount of our MSRs to SunTrust Mortgage, Inc., we agreed to indemnify SunTrust Mortgage, Inc. for prepayment of a certain amount of those loans. In the event the holders of such loans prepay the loans, we may be required to reimburse SunTrust Mortgage, Inc. for a certain portion of the anticipated MSR value of that loan.
If repurchase and indemnity demands increase on loans or MSRs that we sell from our portfolios, our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.
If we breach any representations or warranties or fail to follow guidelines when originating a FHA/HUD-insured loan or a VA-guaranteed loan, we may lose the insurance or guarantee on the loan and suffer losses, pay penalties, and/or be subjected to litigation from the federal government.
We originate and purchase, sell and thereafter service single family loans that are insured by FHA/HUD or guaranteed by the VA. We certify to the FHA/HUD and the VA that the loans meet their requirements and guidelines. The FHA/HUD and VA audit loans that are insured or guaranteed under their programs, including audits of our processes and procedures as well as
individual loan documentation. Violations of guidelines can result in monetary penalties or require us to provide indemnifications against loss or loans declared ineligible for their programs. In the past, monetary penalties and losses from indemnifications have not created material losses to the Bank. As a result of the housing crisis, the FHA/HUD has stepped up enforcement initiatives. In addition to regular FHA/HUD audits, HUD's Inspector General has become active in enforcing FHA regulations with respect to individual loans and has partnered with the Department of Justice ("DOJ") in filing lawsuits against lenders for systemic violations. The penalties resulting from such lawsuits can be much more severe, since systemic violations can be applied to groups of loans and penalties may be subject to treble damages. The DOJ has used the Federal False Claims Act and other federal laws and regulations in prosecuting these lawsuits. Because of our significant origination of FHA/HUD insured and VA guaranteed loans, if the DOJ were to find potential violations by the Bank, we could be subject to material
monetary penalties and/or losses, and may even be subject to lawsuits alleging systemic violations which could result in treble damages.
We may face risk of loss if we purchase loans from a seller that fails to satisfy its indemnification obligations.
We generally receive representations and warranties from the originators and sellers from whom we purchase loans and servicing rights such that if a loan defaults and there has been a breach of such representations and warranties, we may be able to pursue a remedy against the seller of the loan for the unpaid principal and interest on the defaulted loan. However, if the originator and/or seller breach such representations and warranties and does not have the financial capacity to pay the related damages, we may be subject to the risk of loss for such loan as the originator or seller may not be able to pay such damages or repurchase loans when called upon by us to do so. Currently, we only purchase loans from WMS Series LLC, an affiliated business arrangement with certain Windermere real estate brokerage franchise owners.
We have previously identified certain deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting, and those deficiencies or others that we have not discovered may result in our inability to maintain control over our assets or to identify and accurately report our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Our internal controls over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Each year, our management, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, conducts an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2014, because of a material weakness in our internal controls related to certain new back office systems, primarily relating to accounts payable processing and payroll processing. Implementation of key systems requires that management perform a thorough risk assessment to adequately assess risk at an appropriate level of detail to allow for (i) the design of controls with the appropriate precision and responsiveness to address those risks, (ii) the timely and effective implementation of controls, including evidence of operating effectiveness, and (iii) effective monitoring of the controls. Management concluded that its risk assessment related to these changes was not comprehensive enough and that sufficient documentation was not maintained. In each of these cases, management determined that no material loss occurred, and that we did not have an actual misstatement of our financial statements. However, management also noted that in the absence of specific management attention, we could have experienced a material loss or could have made a material error in the reporting of our results of operations for the fourth quarter of 2014. Management thus determined that these potential outcomes reflect a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting, and that, as a result, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2014.
These deficiencies are discussed in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 under Item 9A, “Internal Control over Financial Reporting.” Management identified and implemented certain remedial measures that we believe will resolve these deficiencies. However, if these measures are not effective, or if our internal controls over financial reporting are subject to additional defects we have not identified, we may be unable to maintain adequate control over our assets, or we may experience material errors in recording our assets, liabilities and results of operations. Further, we reported an unrelated material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting following the end of our third fiscal quarter of 2014 which was remediated prior to December 31, 2014. Repeated or continuing deficiencies may cause investors to question the reliability of our internal controls or our financial statements, and may result in an erosion of confidence in our management or result in penalties or other potential enforcement action by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
If we fail to maintain effective systems of internal and disclosure control, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which in turn may harm our business and the trading price of our securities.
Effective internal and disclosure controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud and to operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results would be harmed. As part of our ongoing monitoring of internal control from time to time we have discovered deficiencies in our internal control as defined under standards adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, that have required remediation. Under the PCAOB standards, a “material weakness” is a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. A “significant deficiency” is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affect a company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is a more than remote likelihood that a misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
To support our growth initiatives and to create operating efficiencies the company has implemented, and will continue to implement, new systems and processes. If our project management processes are not sound and adequate resources are not deployed to these implementations we may experience internal control lapses that could expose the company to operating losses.
If we discover additional deficiencies in our internal controls, we may also identify defects in our disclosure controls and procedures that require remediation. If we discover additional deficiencies, we will take affirmative steps to improve our internal and disclosure controls. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful. Any failure to maintain effective controls or timely effect any necessary improvement of our internal and disclosure controls could harm operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal and disclosure controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of our securities or result in penalties or other potential enforcement action by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Some provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws and certain provisions of Washington law may deter takeover attempts, which may limit the opportunity of our shareholders to sell their shares at a favorable price.
Some provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of deterring or delaying attempts by our shareholders to remove or replace management, to commence proxy contests, or to effect changes in control. These provisions include:
aA classified board of directors so that only approximately one third of our board of directors is elected each year;
eliminationElimination of cumulative voting in the election of directors;
proceduresProcedures for advance notification of shareholder nominations and proposals;
theThe ability of our board of directors to amend our bylaws without shareholder approval; and
theThe ability of our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock without shareholder approval upon the terms and conditions and with the rights, privileges and preferences as the board of directors may determine.
In addition, as a Washington corporation, we are subject to Washington law which imposes restrictions on some transactions between a corporation and certain significant shareholders. These provisions, alone or together, could have the effect of deterring or delaying changes in incumbent management, proxy contests or changes in control.

ITEM 2 | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS |
Not applicable.a) Sale of Unregistered Securities.
We maintain a 401(k) retirement savings plan that is available to substantially all of our employees. This plan allows participants to allocate up to 10% of their eligible account balances to interests to purchases of HomeStreet common stock. For participants who elect such an allocation, the plan's trustee acquires HomeStreet common stock in the open market and allocates that stock the account of each participant. The plan is considered to be an affiliate of the Company because the trustees ultimately responsible for administering the plan are a committee of our board of directors. The trustees have selected Charles Schwab to administer the plan. During the third quarter of 2015, the plan (our affiliate) sold 2,651 shares of common stock to participants that were not properly registered due to an inadvertent failure to file an S-8 to register such shares. On October 15, 2015, together with the plan, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 to register future transactions in the 401(k) plan as well as certain resale by plan participants who purchased shares through their accounts in the six months prior to the filing of the registration statement. We did not receive any proceeds from the sales of the securities.
