PART I
Item 1. Business
General
First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated under Maryland law in March 2002 to hold all of the stock of Pacific Trust Bank (“the Bank”). Maryland was chosen as the state of incorporation because it provides protections similar to Delaware with respect to takeover, indemnification and limitations on liability, with reduced franchise taxes. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is a savings and loan holding company and is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is a unitary thrift holding company, which means that it owns one thrift institution. As a thrift holding company, First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc., activities are limited to banking, securities, insurance and financial services-related activities. See “How We Are Regulated - First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc”. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is not an operating company and has no significant assets other than all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Pacific Trust Bank, the net proceeds retained from its initial public offering completed in August 2002, and its loan to the First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. 401(k) Employee Stock Ownership Plan. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. has no significant liabilities. The management of the Company and the Bank is substantially the same. The Company utilizes the support staff and offices of the Bank and pays the Bank for these services. If the Company expands or changes its business in the future, the Company may hire the Company’s own employees. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the Company include the Bank and the Company on a consolidated basis.
The Company is a community-oriented financial institution offering a variety of financial services to meet the needs of the communities we serve. The Company is headquartered in Chula Vista, California, a suburb of San Diego, California and has nine banking offices primarily serving San Diego and Riverside Counties in California. Our geographic market for loans and deposits is principally San Diego and Riverside counties.
The principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing these funds primarily in permanent loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one-to four- family residences and a variety of consumer loans. The Company also originates loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate and, to a limited extent, commercial business loans secured primarily by residential real estate.
The Company offers a variety of deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms, which generally include savings accounts, money market deposits, certificate accounts and checking accounts. The Company solicits deposits in the Company’s market area and, to a lesser extent from financial institutions nationwide, and has accepted brokered deposits.

Lending Activities
General. The Company’s mortgage loans carry either a fixed or an adjustable rate of interest. Mortgage loans generally are long-term and amortize on a monthly basis with principal and interest due each month. The Company also has loans in the portfolio which require only interest payments on a monthly basis or may have the potential for negative amortization. At December 31, 2004, our net loan portfolio totaled $628.7 million, which constituted 93.2% of our total assets.
Senior loan officers may approve loans to one borrower or group of related borrowers up to $1.0 million. The Executive Vice President of Lending may approve loans to one borrower or group of related borrowers up to $1.5 million. The President/CEO may approve loans to one borrower or group of related borrowers up to $2.0 million. The Management Loan Committee may approve loans to one borrower or group of related borrowers up to $8.0 million with no single loan exceeding $3.5 million. The Board Loan Committee must approve loans over these amounts or outside our general loan policy.
At December 31, 2004, the maximum amount, which the Company could have loaned to any one borrower and the borrower’s related entities, was approximately $11.1 million. The largest lending relationship to a single borrower or a group of related borrowers consisted of fifteen loans to a local investor totaling approximately $10.2 million at December 31, 2004. These loans are secured by one- to four-family, multi-family, and commercial real estate properties located in San Diego County, California. These loans were current as of December 31, 2004.

The total amount of loans due after December 31, 2005 which have predetermined interest rates is $34.3 million, while the total amount of loans due after such date which have floating or adjustable interest rates is $561.5 million.
One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Lending. The Company focuses lending efforts primarily on the origination of loans secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one- to four-family residences in San Diego and Riverside counties, California. At December 31, 2004, one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaled $517.6 million, or 81.9% of our gross loan portfolio.
The Company generally underwrites our one- to four-family loans based on the applicant’s income and credit history and the appraised value of the subject property. Presently, the Company lends up to 90% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price for one- to four-family residential loans. For loans with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80%, the Company generally requires private mortgage insurance in order to reduce our exposure below 80% or alternatively, a higher interest rate is charged. Properties securing our one- to four-family loans are appraised by independent fee appraisers approved by the Management Loan Committee. Generally, the Company requires borrowers to obtain title insurance, hazard insurance, and flood insurance, if necessary.
The Company currently originates one- to four-family mortgage loans on either a fixed- or adjustable-rate basis, as consumer demand dictates. The Company’s pricing strategy for mortgage loans includes setting interest rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions.
Adjustable-rate mortgage, or “ARM” loans, are offered with flexible initial and periodic repricing dates, ranging from one month to seven years through the life of the loan. The Company uses a variety of indices to reprice our ARM loans. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company originated $181.1 million of one- to four-family ARM loans and $13.5 million of one- to four-family fixed-rate mortgage loans.
One- to four-family loans may be assumable, subject to the Company’s approval, and may contain prepayment penalties. Most ARM loans are written using generally accepted underwriting guidelines. Due mainly, however, to the generally large loan size, these loans may not be readily saleable to Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae, but are saleable to other private investors. The Company’s real estate loans generally contain a “due on sale” clause allowing us to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property.
The Company also offers ARM loans which may provide for negative amortization of the principal balance. These loans have monthly interest rate adjustments after the specified introductory rate term, and annual maximum payment adjustments of 7 1/2% during the first five years of the loan. The principal balance on these loans may increase up to 110% of the original loan amount as a result of the payments not being sufficient to cover the interest due during the first five years of the loan term. These loans adjust to fully amortize after five years through contractual maturity, with up to a 30-year term.
In order to remain competitive in our market areas, the Company may originate ARM loans at initial rates below the fully indexed rate. The Company’s ARM loans generally provide for specified minimum and maximum interest rates, with a lifetime cap and floor, and a periodic adjustment on the interest rate over the rate in effect on the date of origination. As a consequence of using caps, the interest rates on these loans may not be as rate sensitive as is our cost of funds.
ARM loans generally pose different credit risks than fixed-rate loans, primarily because as interest rates rise, the borrower’s payment rises, increasing the potential for default. The Company has not experienced significant delinquencies in these loans. However, the majority of these loans have been originated within the past three years. See “- Asset Quality — Non-performing Assets” and “— Classified Assets.” At December 31, 2004, the Company’s one- to four-family ARM loan portfolio totaled $502.8 million, or 79.6% of our gross loan portfolio. At that date, the fixed-rate one-to four-family mortgage loan portfolio totaled $14.8 million, or 2.3% of the Company’s gross loan portfolio.
In addition, the Bank currently offers interest only loans and expects originations of these loans to substantially increase.
8
Fixed-rate loans secured by one- to four-family residences have contractual maturities of up to 30 years, and are generally fully amortizing, with payments due monthly.
Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate Lending. The Company offers a variety of multi-family and commercial real estate loans. These loans are secured primarily by multi-family dwellings, and a limited amount of small retail establishments, hotels, motels, warehouses, and small office buildings located in our market area. At December 31, 2004, multi-family and commercial real estate loans totaled $96.7 million or 15.3% of the Company’s gross loan portfolio.
The Company’s loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate are originated with either a fixed or adjustable interest rate. The interest rate on adjustable-rate loans is based on a variety of indices, generally determined through negotiation with the borrower. Loan-to-value ratios on multi-family real estate loans typically do not exceed 75% of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. These loans typically require monthly payments, may contain balloon payments and have maximum maturities of 30 years. Loan-to-value ratios on commercial real estate loans typically do not exceed 70% of the appraised value of the property securing the loan and have maximum maturities of 25 years.
Loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate are underwritten based on the income producing potential of the property and the financial strength of the borrower. The net operating income, which is the income derived from the operation of the property less all operating expenses, must be sufficient to cover the payments related to the outstanding debt. The Company generally does not require personal guarantees of the borrowers. The Company generally requires an assignment of rents or leases in order to be assured that the cash flow from the project will be used to repay the debt. Appraisals on properties securing multi-family and commercial real estate loans are performed by independent state licensed fee appraisers approved by the Management Loan Committee. See “- Loan Originations, Purchases, Sales and Repayments.”
The Company generally maintains a tax or insurance escrow account for loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate. In order to monitor the adequacy of cash flows on income-producing properties, the borrower may be requested or required to provide periodic financial information.
Loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate properties generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. These loans typically involve large balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The largest multi-family or commercial real estate loan at December 31, 2004 was secured by property located in San Diego County with a principal balance of $4.5 million. At December 31, 2004, this loan was fully performing.
Because payments on loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate properties are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of these loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, or if leases are not obtained or renewed, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. See “- Asset Quality — Non-performing Loans.”
Construction Lending. The Company has not historically originated a significant amount of construction loans. From time to time the Company does, however, purchase participations in real estate construction loans. In addition, the Company may in the future originate or purchase loans or participations in construction. At December 31, 2004, the Company had $126,000 in construction loans outstanding, representing less than .1% of our gross loan portfolio. The Company had a commitment to fund an additional $2.1 million of construction loans at December 31, 2004.
Consumer and Other Lending. Consumer loans generally have shorter terms to maturity, which reduces our exposure to changes in interest rates, and carry higher rates of interest than do one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. In addition, management believes that offering consumer loan products helps to expand and create stronger ties to the Company’s existing customer base by increasing the number of customer relationships and providing cross-marketing opportunities. At December 31, 2004, the Company’s consumer and other loan portfolio totaled $17.6 million, or 2.8% of our gross loan portfolio. The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity lines of credit, new and used auto loans, boat and recreational vehicle loans, and loans secured by savings deposits. The Company also offers a limited amount of unsecured loans. The Company originates consumer and other loans primarily in its market area.
9
The Company’s home equity lines of credit totaled $12.9 million, and comprised 2.0% of our gross loan portfolio at December 31, 2004. These loans may be originated in amounts, together with the amount of the existing first mortgage, of up to 90% of the value of the property securing the loan. Home equity lines of credit have a seven or ten year draw period and require the payment of 1.0% or 1.5% of the outstanding loan balance per month (depending on the terms) during the draw period, which amount may be re-borrowed at any time during the draw period. Home equity lines of credit with a 10 year draw period have a balloon payment due at the end of the draw period. Once the draw period has lapsed, generally the payment is fixed based on the loan balance at that time. At December 31, 2004, unfunded commitments on these lines of credit totaled $22.8 million. Other consumer loan terms vary according to the type of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower.
Auto loans totaled $1.3 million at December 31, 2004, or .2% of our gross loan portfolio. Auto loans may be written for up to six years and usually have fixed rates of interest. Loan-to-value ratios are up to 100% of the sales price for new autos and 100% of retail value on used autos, based on valuation from official used car guides.
Loans for recreational vehicles, including boats and planes, totaled $396,000 at December 31, 2004, or approximately.1% of our gross loan portfolio. The Company will finance up to 100% of the purchase price for a new recreational vehicle and 100% of the value for a used recreational vehicle, based on the applicable official used recreational vehicle guides. The term to maturity for these types of loans is up to 10 years for recreational vehicles. These loans are generally written with fixed rates of interest.
Consumer and other loans may entail greater risk than do one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles and recreational vehicles. In these cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. As a result, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability and, thus, are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness, or personal bankruptcy.
At December 31, 2004, commercial business loans totaled $681,000 or .1% of the gross loan portfolio. The Company’s commercial business lending policy includes credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower’s background, capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower’s capital and collateral as well as an evaluation of other conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the borrower’s past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of our credit analysis. The Company may obtain personal guarantees on our commercial business loans. Nonetheless, these loans are believed to carry higher credit risk than more traditional single-family loans.
Unlike residential mortgage loans, commercial business loans are typically made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself (which, in turn, is often dependent in part upon general economic conditions). Our commercial business loans are usually, but not always, secured by business assets. However, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business.
Loan Originations, Purchases, Sales, Repayments, and Servicing
The Company originates real estate secured loans primarily through mortgage brokers and banking relationships. By originating most of our loans through brokers, the Company is better able to control overhead costs and efficiently utilize management resources. The Company is a portfolio lender of products not readily saleable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, although they are saleable to private investors.
The Company also originates consumer and real estate loans on a direct basis through our marketing efforts, and our existing and walk-in customers. While the Company originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans, the ability to originate loans is dependent upon customer demand for loans in our market areas. Demand is affected by competition and the interest rate environment. During the last few years, the Company has significantly increased our origination of ARM loans. The Company sells most of the fixed-rate, one- to four-family residential loans the
10
Company originates with maturity dates greater than 15 years. Although there have been no sales in the past two years. The Company has also purchased ARM loans secured by one-to- four family residences and participations in commercial real estate loans. Loans and participations purchased must conform to the Company’s underwriting guidelines or guidelines acceptable to the management loan committee. Furthermore, during the past few years, the Company, like many other financial institutions, has experienced significant prepayments on loans due to the low interest rate environment prevailing in the United States. In periods of economic uncertainty, the ability of financial institutions to originate or purchase large dollar volumes of real estate loans may be substantially reduced or restricted, with a resultant decrease in interest income.
The following table shows our loan origination, purchase, sale, and repayment activities for the periods indicated.

Asset Quality
Real estate loans are serviced in house in accordance with secondary market guidelines. When a borrower fails to make a payment on a mortgage loan on or before the default date, a late charge notice is mailed 16 days after the due date. All delinquent accounts are reviewed by a collector, who attempts to cure the delinquency by contacting the borrower once the loan is 30 days past due. If the loan becomes 60 days delinquent, the collector will generally contact by phone or send a personal letter to the borrower in order to identify the reason for the delinquency. Once the loan becomes 90 days delinquent, contact with the borrower is made requesting payment of the delinquent amount in full, or the establishment of an acceptable repayment plan to bring the loan current. When a loan is between 100 and 120 days delinquent, a drive-by inspection is made. If the account becomes 120 days delinquent, and an acceptable repayment plan has not been agreed upon, a collection officer will generally initiate foreclosure or refer the account to the Company’s counsel to initiate foreclosure proceedings.
For consumer loans a similar process is followed, with the initial written contact being made once the loan is 16 days past due. Follow-up contacts are generally on an accelerated basis compared to the mortgage loan procedure.

Other Loans of Concern. At December 31, 2004, loans of concern totaled $5.9 million, which primarily consisted of one residential loan totaling $3.2 million that was current as of December 31, 2004.
Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities considered by the Office of Thrift Supervision to be of lesser quality, as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss.” An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.
When an insured institution classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management and approved by the board of directors. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as “loss,” it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. An institution’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC, which may order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.
13
In connection with the filing of our periodic reports with the Office of Thrift Supervision and in accordance with our classification of assets policy, we regularly review the problem assets in our portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. On the basis of management’s review of assets, at December 31, 2004, the Company had classified $5.9 million of our assets as substandard, $0 as doubtful and $0 as loss. The total amount classified represented 7.4% of our equity capital and .9% of our assets at December 31, 2004.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2004 of $238,000, compared to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The provision for loan losses is charged to income to adjust our allowance for loan losses to reflect probable losses presently inherent in our loan portfolio based on the factors discussed below under “Allowance for Loan Losses.” The provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2004 was based on management’s review of such factors which indicated that the allowance for loan losses reflected probable losses presently inherent in the loan portfolio as of the year ended December 31, 2004.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on ongoing, quarterly assessments of the estimated probable losses presently inherent in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, peer group information, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate, small commercial real estate, home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors and peer group data adjusted for current economic conditions. Geographic peer group data is obtained by general loan type and adjusted to reflect known differences between peers and the Company, including loan seasoning, underwriting experience, local economic conditions and customer characteristics. More complex loans, such as multi-family commercial real estate loans, are evaluated individually for impairment, primarily through the evaluation of collateral values and cash flows.
At December 31, 2004, our allowance for loan losses was $4.4 million or .70% of the total loan portfolio. Assessing the allowance for loan losses is inherently subjective as it requires making material estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. In the opinion of management, the allowance, when taken as a whole, reflects estimated probable loan losses presently inherent in our loan portfolios.

Investment Activities
Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, including callable agency securities, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers’ acceptances, repurchase agreements, and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federally chartered savings institutions may also invest their assets in investment grade commercial paper and corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly. See “How We Are Regulated - Pacific Trust Bank” and “- Qualified Thrift Lender Test” for a discussion of additional restrictions on our investment activities.
Our Treasurer has the basic responsibility for the management of the investment portfolio, subject to the direction and guidance of the investment committee. The Treasurer considers various factors when making decisions, including the marketability, maturity, and tax consequences of the proposed investment. The maturity structure of investments will be affected by various market conditions, including the current and anticipated slope of the yield curve, the level of interest rates, the trend of new deposit inflows, and the anticipated demand for funds via deposit withdrawals and loan originations and purchases.
The general objectives of our investment portfolio are to provide liquidity when loan demand is high, to assist in maintaining earnings when loan demand is low and to maximize earnings while satisfactorily managing risk, including credit risk, reinvestment risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. See Item 7A “- Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”
The Company’s investment securities currently consist of callable agency debt issues and structured mortgage-related securities issued by Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae and Freddie Mac (also referred to as REMICs or CMOs). CMOs are securities derived by reallocating the cash flows from mortgage-backed securities or pools of mortgage loans in order to create multiple classes, or tranches, of securities with coupon rates and average lives that differ from the underlying collateral as a whole. The term to maturity of any particular tranche is dependent upon the prepayment speed of the underlying collateral as well as the structure of the particular CMO. As a result of these factors, the estimated average lives of the CMOs may be shorter than the contractual maturities as shown on the table below. Although CMO tranches have been structured (through the use of cash flow priority and “support” tranches) to give somewhat more predictable cash flows, the actual future cash flow and hence the value of CMOs are subject to change.
The Company frequently may invest in CMOs as an alternative to mortgage loans and conventional mortgage-backed securities as part of our asset/liability management strategy. Management believes that CMOs represent attractive investment alternatives relative to other investments due to the wide variety of maturity and repayment options available through such investments. In particular, the Company has from time to time concluded that short and intermediate duration CMOs (with an expected average life of five years or less) represent a better combination of rate and duration than adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities. All of the Company’s negotiable securities, including CMOs, are held as “available for sale.

The following table sets forth the composition of our securities portfolio and other investments at the dates indicated. Our securities portfolio at December 31, 2004, did not contain securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of our equity capital, excluding those issued by the United States Government or its agencies.

Sources of Funds
General. The Company’s sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, payment of principal and interest on loans, interest earned on or maturation of other investment securities and funds provided from operations.
Deposits. The Company offers a variety of deposit accounts to both consumers and businesses having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Company’s deposits consist of savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, NOW and demand accounts and certificates of deposit. The Company solicits deposits primarily in our market area and from financial institutions. The Company has also accepted brokered deposits and held $12.0 million of brokered certificates of deposit at December 31, 2004. The Company primarily relies on competitive pricing policies, marketing and customer service to attract and retain these deposits.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and competition. The variety of deposit accounts the Company offers has allowed the Company to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to changes in consumer demand. The Company has become more susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows, as customers have become more interest rate conscious. The Company tries to manage the pricing of our deposits in keeping with our asset/liability management, liquidity and profitability objectives, subject to competitive factors. Based on our experience, the Company believes that our deposits are relatively stable sources of funds. Despite this stability, the Company’s ability to attract and maintain these deposits and the rates paid on them has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.
The following table sets forth our deposit flows during the periods indicated.

Borrowings. Although deposits are our primary source of funds, the Company may utilize borrowings when they are a less costly source of funds and can be invested at a positive interest rate spread, when the Company desires additional capacity to fund loan demand or when they meet our asset/liability management goals. The Company’s borrowings historically have consisted of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco.
The Company may obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco upon the security of certain of the Company’s mortgage loans and mortgage-backed and other securities. These advances may be made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate, range of maturities and call features. At December 31, 2004, the Company had $135.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding and the ability to borrow an additional $124.8 million. See also Note 7 (Item 8) containing the Company’s consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding FHLB advances.
The following table sets forth certain information as to our borrowings at the dates and for the years indicated.

Subsidiary and Other Activities
As a federally chartered savings bank, Pacific Trust Bank is permitted by the Office of Thrift Supervision to invest 2% of our assets or $13.5 million at December 31, 2004, in the stock of, or unsecured loans to, service corporation subsidiaries. The Company may invest an additional 1% of our assets in secure corporations where such additional funds are used for inner city or community development purposes. Pacific Trust Bank currently does not have any subsidiary service corporations.
Competition
The Company faces strong competition in originating real estate and other loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in originating real estate loans comes primarily from other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions and mortgage bankers. Other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending.
The Company attracts deposits through the branch office system and through the internet. Competition for those deposits is principally from other savings institutions, commercial banks and credit unions located in the same community, as well as mutual funds and other alternative investments. The Company competes for these deposits by offering superior service and a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates. Based on the most recent branch deposit data provided by the FDIC, Pacific Trust Bank’s share of deposits was 0.84% and 0.45% in San Diego and Riverside Counties, respectively.
Employees
At December 31, 2004, we had a total of 94 full-time employees and 16 part-time employees. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.

HOW WE ARE REGULATED
Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws and regulations which are applicable to First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. and Pacific Trust Bank. The description of these laws and regulations, as well as descriptions of laws and regulations contained elsewhere herein, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable laws and regulations.
Legislation is introduced from time to time in the United States Congress that may affect the operations of the Company and the Bank. In addition, the regulations governing the Company and the Bank may be amended from time to time by the Office of Thrift Supervision. Any such legislation or regulatory changes in the future could adversely affect the Company or the Bank. No assurance can be given as to whether or in what form any such changes may occur.
General
Pacific Trust Bank, as a federally chartered savings institution, is subject to federal regulation and oversight by the Office of Thrift Supervision extending to all aspects of its operations. The Bank is also subject to regulation and examination by the FDIC, which insures the deposits of the Bank to the maximum extent permitted by law, and requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board. Federally chartered savings institutions are required to file periodic reports with the Office of Thrift Supervision and are subject to periodic examinations by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC. The investment and lending authority of savings institutions are prescribed by federal laws and regulations, and such institutions are prohibited from engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws and regulations. Such regulation and supervision primarily is intended for the protection of depositors and not for the purpose of protecting shareholders.
The Office of Thrift Supervision regularly examines the Bank and prepares reports for the consideration of the Bank’s board of directors on any deficiencies that it may find in the Bank’s operations. The FDIC also has the authority to examine the Bank in its role as the administrator of the Savings Association Insurance Fund. Our relationship with its depositors and borrowers also is regulated to a great extent by both Federal and state laws, especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and the form and content of our mortgage requirements. Any change in such regulations, whether by the FDIC, the Office of Thrift Supervision or Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and the Bank and their operations.
First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc.
Pursuant to regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision and the terms of the Company’s Maryland charter, the purpose and powers of the Company are to pursue any or all of the lawful objectives of a thrift holding company and to exercise any of the powers accorded to a thrift holding company.
First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to regulatory oversight by the Office of Thrift Supervision. First PacTrust is required to register and file reports with the Office of Thrift Supervision and is subject to regulation and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision has enforcement authority over us and our non-savings institution subsidiaries.
First PacTrust generally is not subject to activity restrictions. If First PacTrust acquired control of another savings institution as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings and loan holding company, and its activities and any of its subsidiaries (other than Pacific Trust Bank or any other savings institution) would generally become subject to additional restrictions.
If the Company fails the qualified thrift lender test, the Company must obtain the approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through other subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple thrift companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within one year of such failure the Company must register as, and will become subject to, the restrictions applicable to bank holding companies.
22
Pacific Trust Bank
The Office of Thrift Supervision has extensive authority over the operations of savings institutions. As part of this authority, we are required to file periodic reports with the Office of Thrift Supervision and we are subject to periodic examinations by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC. When these examinations are conducted by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC, the examiners may require the Bank to provide for higher general or specific loan loss reserves. All savings institutions are subject to a semi-annual assessment, based upon the savings institution’s total assets, to fund the operations of the Office of Thrift Supervision.
23
The Office of Thrift Supervision also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings institutions and their holding companies, including the Bank and the Company. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the Office of Thrift Supervision. Except under certain circumstances, public disclosure of final enforcement actions by the Office of Thrift Supervision is required.
In addition, the investment, lending and branching authority of the Bank is prescribed by federal laws and it is prohibited from engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws. For instance, no savings institution may invest in non-investment grade corporate debt securities. In addition, the permissible level of investment by federal institutions in loans secured by non-residential real property may not exceed 400% of total capital, except with approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision. Federal savings institutions are also generally authorized to branch nationwide. The Bank is in compliance with the noted restrictions.
The Bank’s general permissible lending limit for loans-to-one-borrower is equal to the greater of $500,000 or 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus including allowance for loan losses (except for loans fully secured by certain readily marketable collateral, in which case this limit is increased to 25% of unimpaired capital and surplus). At December 31, 2004, the Bank’s lending limit under this restriction was $11.1 million. The Bank is in compliance with the loans-to-one-borrower limitation.
The Office of Thrift Supervision, as well as the other federal banking agencies, has adopted guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on such matters as loan underwriting and documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure and compensation and other employee benefits. Any institution which fails to comply with these standards must submit a compliance plan.
Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC
The Bank is a member of the Savings Association Insurance Fund, which is administered by the FDIC. Deposits are insured up to the applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the Savings Association Insurance Fund or the Bank Insurance Fund. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings institutions, after giving the Office of Thrift Supervision an opportunity to take such action, and may terminate the deposit insurance if it determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
Federally insured savings institutions, such as the Bank, are required to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The Office of Thrift Supervision has established capital standards, including a tangible capital requirement, a leverage ratio or core capital requirement and a risk-based capital requirement applicable to such savings institutions. These capital requirements must be generally as stringent as the comparable capital requirements for national banks. The Office of Thrift Supervision is also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on a case-by-case basis.
The capital regulations require tangible capital of at least 1.5% of adjusted total assets, as defined by regulation. Tangible capital generally includes common stockholders’ equity and retained earnings, and certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related earnings. In addition, generally all intangible assets, other than a limited amount of purchased mortgage servicing rights, and certain other items, must be deducted from tangible capital for calculating compliance with the requirement. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had no intangible assets.
At December 31, 2004, the Bank had tangible capital of $69.6 million, or 10.3% of adjusted total assets, which was approximately $59.5 million above the minimum requirement of $10.1 million or 1.5% of adjusted total assets in effect on that date.
24
The capital standards also require core capital equal to at least 3.0% of adjusted total assets. Core capital generally consists of tangible capital plus certain intangible assets, including a limited amount of purchased credit card relationships. As a result of the prompt corrective action provisions discussed below, however, a savings institution must maintain a core capital ratio of at least 4.0% to be considered adequately capitalized unless its supervisory condition is such as to allow it to maintain a 3.0% ratio. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had no intangibles which were subject to these tests.
At December 31, 2004, the Bank had core capital equal to $69.6 million, or 10.3% of adjusted total assets, which was $42.6 million above the minimum requirement of 4.0% in effect on that date.
The Office of Thrift Supervision also requires savings institutions to have total capital of at least 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Total capital consists of core capital, as defined above, and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital consists of certain permanent and maturing capital instruments that do not qualify as core capital and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Supplementary capital may be used to satisfy the risk-based requirement only to the extent of core capital. The Office of Thrift Supervision is also authorized to require a savings institution to maintain an additional amount of total capital to account for concentration of credit risk and the risk of non-traditional activities. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had $4.4 million of general loan loss reserves, which was less than 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.
In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet items, will be multiplied by a risk weight, ranging from 0% to 100%, based on the risk inherent in the type of asset. For example, the Office of Thrift Supervision has assigned a risk weight of 50% for prudently underwritten permanent one- to four-family first lien mortgage loans not more than 90 days delinquent and having a loan-to-value ratio of not more than 80% at origination unless insured to such ratio by an insurer approved by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
On December 31, 2004, the Bank had total risk-based capital of $74.1 million and risk-weighted assets of $423.5 million; or total capital of 17.5% of risk-weighted assets. This amount was $40.2 million above the 8.0% requirement in effect on that date.
The Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC are authorized and, under certain circumstances, required to take certain actions against savings institutions that fail to meet their capital requirements. The Office of Thrift Supervision is generally required to take action to restrict the activities of an “undercapitalized institution,” which is an institution with less than either a 4% core capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1 risked-based capital ratio or an 8.0% risk-based capital ratio. Any such institution must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is approved by the Office of Thrift Supervision may not increase its assets, acquire another institution, establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make capital distributions. The Office of Thrift Supervision is authorized to impose the additional restrictions that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions
As a condition to the approval of the capital restoration plan, any company controlling an undercapitalized institution must agree that it will enter into a limited capital maintenance guarantee with respect to the institution’s achievement of its capital requirements.
Any savings institution that fails to comply with its capital plan or has Tier 1 risk-based or core capital ratios of less than 3.0% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0% and is considered “significantly undercapitalized” must be made subject to one or more additional specified actions and operating restrictions which may cover all aspects of its operations and may include a forced merger or acquisition of the institution. An institution that becomes “critically undercapitalized” because it has a tangible capital ratio of 2.0% or less is subject to further mandatory restrictions on its activities in addition to those applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision must appoint a receiver, or conservator with the concurrence of the FDIC, for a savings institution, with certain limited exceptions, within 90 days after it becomes critically undercapitalized. The OTS may take other action as it determines, with the concurrence of the FDIC, would better achieve its objective, after documenting why. If the OTS determines to take action other than appointing a conservator or receiver, a redetermination must be made not later than the end of the 90-day period beginning on the date the original determination is made. If a redetermination is not made, then a conservator or receiver will, notwithstanding the above and with certain exceptions, be appointed. In general, the OTS will appoint a receiver if the institution is critically undercapitalized on average during the calendar quarter beginning 270 days after the date on which the institution became critically undercapitalized.
25
The Office of Thrift Supervision is also generally authorized to reclassify an institution into a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable to such category if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition.
The imposition by the Office of Thrift Supervision or the FDIC of any of these measures on the Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on its operations and profitability. At December 31, 2004, the Bank was considered a “well-capitalized” institution.
Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions
Office of Thrift Supervision regulations impose various restrictions on savings institutions with respect to their ability to make distributions of capital, which include dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other transactions charged to the capital account.
Generally, savings institutions, such as Pacific Trust Bank, that before and after the proposed distribution remain well-capitalized, may make capital distributions during any calendar year equal to up to 100% of net income for the year-to-date plus retained net income for the two preceding years. However, an institution deemed to be in need of more than normal supervision by the Office of Thrift Supervision may have its dividend authority restricted by the Office of Thrift Supervision. The Bank may pay dividends in accordance with this general authority.
Savings institutions proposing to make any capital distribution need not submit written notice to the Office of Thrift Supervision prior to such distribution unless they are a subsidiary of a holding company or would not remain well-capitalized following the distribution. Pacific Trust Bank is a subsidiary of a holding company. Savings institutions that do not, or would not meet their current minimum capital requirements following a proposed capital distribution or propose to exceed these net income limitations must obtain Office of Thrift Supervision approval prior to making such distribution. The Office of Thrift Supervision may object to the distribution during that 30-day period based on safety and soundness concerns. See “- Regulatory Capital Requirements.”
Liquidity
All savings institutions, including Pacific Trust Bank, are required to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure a safe and sound operation.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test
All savings institutions, including Pacific Trust Bank, are required to meet a qualified thrift lender test to avoid certain restrictions on their operations. This test requires a savings institution to have at least 65% of its portfolio assets, as defined by regulation, in qualified thrift investments on a monthly average for nine out of every 12 months on a rolling basis. As an alternative, the savings institution may maintain 60% of its assets in those assets specified in Section 7701(a)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under either test, such assets primarily consist of residential housing related loans and investments. At December 31, 2004, the Bank met the test and has always met the test since its effectiveness.
Any savings institution that fails to meet the qualified thrift lender test must convert to a national bank charter, unless it requalifies as a qualified thrift lender and thereafter remains a qualified thrift lender. If an institution does not requalify and converts to a national bank charter, it must remain Savings Association Insurance Fund-insured until the FDIC permits it to transfer to the Bank Insurance Fund. If such an institution has not yet requalified or converted to a national bank, its new investments and activities are limited to those permissible for both a savings institution and a national bank, and it is limited to national bank branching rights in its home state. In addition, the institution is immediately ineligible to receive any new Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and is subject to national bank limits for payment of dividends. If such an institution has not requalified or converted to a national bank within three years after the failure, it must divest of all investments and cease all activities not permissible for a national bank. In addition, it must repay promptly any outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, which may result in prepayment penalties. If any institution that fails the qualified thrift lender test is controlled by a holding company, then within one year after the failure, the holding company must register as a bank holding company and become subject to all restrictions on bank holding companies.
26
Federal Securities Law
The stock of First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company will be subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other requirements of the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Company stock held by persons who are affiliates of the Company may not be resold without registration unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. Affiliates are generally considered to be officers, directors and principal stockholders. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate of the Company will be able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month period.
Federal Reserve System
The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts, primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts. At December 31, 2004, Pacific Trust Bank was in compliance with these reserve requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements that may be imposed by the Office of Thrift Supervision. See “- Liquidity.”
Savings institutions are authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank “discount window,” but Federal Reserve Board regulations require institutions to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank.
27
Federal Home Loan Bank System
Pacific Trust Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco, which is one of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks, that administers the home financing credit function of savings institutions. Each Federal Home Loan Bank serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank System. It makes loans or advances to members in accordance with policies and procedures, established by the board of directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank, which are subject to the oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are required to be fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the Federal Home Loan Bank. In addition, all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing.
As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. At December 31, 2004, the Bank had $7.8 million in Federal Home Loan Bank stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years, the Bank has received substantial dividends on its Federal Home Loan Bank stock. Over the past three fiscal years such dividends have averaged 4.75% and were 4.11% for 2004.
Under federal law the Federal Home Loan Banks are required to provide funds for the resolution of troubled savings institutions and to contribute to low- and moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have affected adversely the level of Federal Home Loan Bank dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock in the future. A reduction in value of the Bank’s Federal Home Loan Bank stock may result in a corresponding reduction in the Bank’s capital.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, dividends paid by the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco to the Bank totaled $324,000, as compared to $276,000 for all of 2003.
TAXATION
Federal Taxation
General. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. and Pacific Trust Bank is subject to federal income taxation in the same general manner as other corporations, with some exceptions discussed below. The following discussion of federal taxation is intended only to summarize certain pertinent federal income tax matters and is not a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the Company or the Bank. The Bank’s federal income tax returns have never been audited. Prior to January 1, 2000, the Bank was a credit union, not generally subject to corporate income tax.
Method of Accounting. For federal income tax purposes, Pacific Trust Bancorp currently reports its income and expenses on the accrual method of accounting and uses a fiscal year ending on December 31, for filing its federal income tax return.
Minimum Tax.The Internal Revenue Code imposes an alternative minimum tax at a rate of 20% on a base of regular taxable income plus certain tax preferences, called alternative minimum taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is payable to the extent such alternative minimum taxable income is in excess of an exemption amount. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. Certain payments of alternative minimum tax may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years. Pacific Trust Bank has not been subject to the alternative minimum tax, nor do we have any such amounts available as credits for carryover.
Net Operating Loss Carryovers. A financial institution may carryback net operating losses to the preceding two taxable years and forward to the succeeding 20 taxable years. This provision applies to losses incurred in taxable years beginning after August 6, 1997. At December 31, 2004, Pacific Trust Bank had no net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes.
28
Corporate Dividends-Received Deduction. First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. may eliminate from its income dividends received from the Bank as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company if it elects to file a consolidated return with the Bank. The corporate dividends-received deduction is 100% or 80%, in the case of dividends received from corporations with which a corporate recipient does not file a consolidated tax return, depending on the level of stock ownership of the payor of the dividend. Corporations which own less than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend may deduct 70% of dividends received or accrued on their behalf.
State Taxation
Pacific Trust Bancorp, Inc. and Pacific Trust Bank are subject to the California corporate franchise (income) tax which is assessed at the rate of 10.84%. For this purpose, California taxable income generally means federal taxable income subject to certain modifications provided for in the California law.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Executive Management Overview
This overview of management’s discussion and analysis highlights selected information in the financial results of the Company and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. For a more complete understanding of trends, commitments, uncertainties, liquidity, capital resources and critical accounting policies and estimates, you should carefully read this entire document. Each of these items could have an impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
34
First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. is a savings and loan holding company that owns one thrift institution, Pacific Trust Bank. As a unitary thrift holding company, First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. activities are limited to banking, securities, insurance and financial services-related activities. Pacific Trust Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank, in continuous operation since 1941 as a profitable and successful financial institution. The Company is headquartered in Chula Vista, California, a suburb of San Diego, California, and has nine banking offices primarily serving residents of San Diego and Riverside Counties in California. Our geographic market for loans and deposits is principally San Diego and Riverside counties.
The Bank’s principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing these funds and other borrowings in permanent loans primarily secured by first mortgages on owner-occupied, one-to four- family residences in San Diego and Riverside counties, California. At December 31, 2004, one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaled $517.6 million, or 81.9% of our gross loan portfolio.
The Bank continues to develop strong deposit relationships with customers by providing quality service while offering a variety of competitive deposit products. During the year ended December 31, 2004, deposits increased $63.7 million as the Company rolled out new products including a “Peace of Mind” Certificate Account and High Yield Savings products. An increase of $7.0 million in brokered certificates of deposit also contributed to the deposit increase.
The Company’s results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on earning assets such as loans, leases and securities, and interest expense paid on liabilities such as deposits and borrowings.
The Company’s interest income, which is primarily driven by interest income on residential first mortgage loans, increased by $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. Strong loan production contributed to a net growth in loans receivable of $41.5 million during the year. Relatively low mid- to long-term interest rate levels experienced throughout the year negatively impacted interest income by continuing to fuel significant prepayments and refinancing of higher yielding loans. Large volumes of prepayments on higher-yielding loans continued to occur as borrowers refinanced their mortgage loans, resulting in reinvestment of funds into lower yielding assets. However, a rising trend in short-term rates, which began in May 2004 and continued throughout the remainder of the year, coupled with deposit growth, resulted in increased interest expense and a decrease to the Company’s net interest margin.
35
During the past year, the Company made some adjustments to its securities portfolio. As most of the securities held at year-end 2003 matured or paid down principal, funds were reinvested, primarily into callable US agency debt securities. One agency note purchased during the year was later sold for a net gain recognized during 2004. The Company also made an equity investment in an affordable housing tax credit fund, which is expected to result in an overall net reduction to the Company’s effective tax rate and improvement to net income over an extended number of years. The Company continues to evaluate potential enhancements to its investment portfolio, including other tax-advantaged investment opportunities, and recently completed a $15.0 million bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) investment during the first quarter of 2005.
The Company has continued to focus on improving shareholder value though a series of stock repurchases and increased dividends paid during the year. These stock repurchases resulted in increased earnings per share and a greater percentage of overall ownership of the Company by the remaining shareholders. The Company currently has an active stock repurchase plan and, at December 31, 2004, had the authority to purchase an additional 126,800 shares of common stock.
Future earnings of the Company are inherently tied to changes in interest rate levels, the relationship between short and long term interest rated, credit quality, and economic trends. If short term interest rates continue to increase, the Company’s interest expense on deposits will likely increase at a faster pace than the interest income received on earning assets due to the relatively shorter term repricing characteristics of the Company’s deposits than the maturity or repricing characteristics of its loan portfolio. The Company intends to mitigate the potential effects of rising interest rates by continuing to focus on the origination of adjustable rate loan products while securing longer term deposits and borrowings.
The plan for our on-going success is continued leveraging of the Company’s assets, mostly through loan portfolio growth to make better use of our current relatively high capital ratios, to be funded with deposit growth and borrowed funds with terms that are appropriate to manage interest rate risk while assuring an adequate net interest spread. The Company will continue its strategy of loan and deposit portfolio growth
36
through high-quality customer service and the development and introduction of innovative financial products. This will be coupled with efforts to further improve our efficiency ratio through controlled operating expense growth, as well as exploring potential new sources of noninterest income.
The following is a discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the information set forth under “General” in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing under Item 8 of this report.
Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003
The Company’s total assets increased by $50.5 million, or 8.1%, to $674.5 million at December 31, 2004 from $624.0 million at December 31, 2003. The increase primarily reflected significant growth in loans receivable which was funded by an increase in deposits. Net loans increased by $41.5 million, or 7.1%, to $628.7 million at December 31, 2004 from $587.3 million at December 31, 2003. The increase in loans resulted from increased volume of one-to-four family mortgage loan originations largely as a result of the low interest rates being offered and the continued utilization of third party loan originators. Securities classified as available-for-sale increased by $3.6 million, or 56.1%, to $10.0 million at December 31, 2004 from $6.4 million at December 31, 2003. This was primarily due to security purchases in the amount of $15.4 million in 2004, principal repayments of $1.3 million, and sales of securities of $10.6 million. Other assets increased $3.2 million primarily resulting from a purchase of an equity investment in a tax credit fund in the amount of $4.5 million. Additionally, a decrease of approximately $1.0 million in other assets was related to a tax overpayment made in the prior year. Other interest earning deposits increased to $2.5 million due primarily to the investment of $2.0 million in certificates of deposit in other financial institutions.
Total deposits increased by $63.7 million, or 16.3%, to $453.6 million at December 31, 2004 from $389.9 million at December 31, 2003. The increase primarily reflected growth in certificates of deposit, NOW accounts, savings and money market accounts due to the opening of a new branch in July of 2003, increased advertising, and new products offered. Certificates of deposit increased $25.8 million, or 12.7%, to $229.1 million primarily due to a new “Peace of Mind” Certificate account the Company began offering in April 2004. Additional brokered deposits in the amount of $7 million also contributed to the increase. NOW accounts increased by $14.2 million, or 25.4% due to growth in a new high yield checking account offered. Money market and savings accounts increased by $10.1 million and $10.4 million, respectively due to competitive pricing and increased marketing efforts made during the year.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $11.5 million, or 7.8 %, to $135.5 million at December 31, 2004 from $147.0 million at December 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily due to FHLB advances maturing in 2004 and increased deposit balances helping to fund loan growth, reducing the amount of additional advances needed during the period. The Company interchanges the use of deposits and borrowings to fund assets depending on various factors including liquidity and asset/liability management.
Equity decreased $5.1 million to $79.4 million at December 31, 2004 from $84.5 million at December 31, 2003. The decrease resulted primarily from the purchase of 448,300 shares of treasury stock for $10.1 million and the payment of dividends of $2.0 million. This was partially offset by $5.1 million of net income earned for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003
General.Net income for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $5.1 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 23.8%, from the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in net income resulted from the fluctuations described below.
Interest income. Interest income increased by $4.0 million, or 14.5%, to $31.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $27.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The primary factor for the increase in interest income was an increase in the average balance of loans receivable of $117.5 million, or 23.3%, from $504.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $621.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase was primarily the result of loan originations exceeding repayments due to strong demand, reflecting generally lower interest rates in 2004. The growth consisted primarily of increases in single family, multifamily, commercial and land loans. The Company offers competitive rates and does not expect the composition of the loan portfolio to change. A 33 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans receivable, from 5.35% for the year ended December 31, 2003 to 5.02% for the year ended 2004 negatively impacted interest income, and was primarily due to the continued strong refinance market resulting from lower market rates of interest. Contributing to this decrease was also the rollover of the Company’s significant adjustable rate loan portfolio adjusting downward from higher rates a few years ago.
Interest income on securities decreased by $281,000, or 64.6%, to $154,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The decrease resulted from an $8.0 million, or 63.5%, decrease in the average balance of securities,
39
attributable to the sale of agency debt securities and increased rate of repayment on collateralized mortgage obligations in a declining interest rate environment. These cash flows were reinvested into higher yielding loans receivable. This decrease was also a result of the average yield on the securities portfolio declining to 3.36% for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2003, due to generally low levels of market rates of interest in 2004.
Interest income from other interest-earning assets increased $78,000 to $391,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $313,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase resulted from an increase in the average balance of other interest-earning assets from $15.1 million to $16.6 million, which was primarily due to certificates of deposit in the amount of $2.0 million being deposited in other financial institutions.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.3 million, or 24.8%, to $11.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in interest expense resulted primarily from an increase in the average balances of deposit accounts and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Interest expense on deposits increased $1.8 million, or 30.2%, to $7.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase resulted from a $92.3 million increase in the average balance of deposits from $326.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $418.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The average cost of our interest-bearing liabilities was 2.04% for the year ended December 31, 2004 which was consistent with the prior year. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $448,000, or 14.3%, to $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase resulted from a $18.3 million increase in the average balance of FHLB advances from $123.2 million at December 31, 2003 to $141.5 million at December 31, 2004.
Net Interest Income.Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $1.7 million, or 9.4%, to $20.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $18.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The overall increase in net interest income was due primarily to the significant increase of $111.1 million in the average loan balance of interest-earning assets. However, this increase was negatively impacted by a decrease in the net interest spread of 27 basis points to 2.90% and a decrease in the net interest margin of 33 basis points during the period to 3.16%. The Company expects a continued shrinking of the net interest margin due to the recent steady increase of short term interest rates. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 114.72% for the year ended December 31, 2004 from 118.23% in the year ended December 31, 2003.
Provision for Loan Losses.Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations at a level required to reflect probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information, and prevailing economic conditions. Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans, such as residential real estate, small commercial real estate, and home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors and peer group data adjusted for current economic conditions. Large balance and/or more complex loans, such as multi-family and commercial real estate loans, and classified loans, are evaluated individually for impairment.
Provisions of $238,000 and $1.3 million were made for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Although a net increase in loans occurred during the year ended December 31, 2004, the provision decreased by $1.0 million over the prior year due to slower growth in loans in 2004 to 2003 as well as continued low levels of charge-offs and nonperforming loans. Loan delinquencies decreased $2.7 million over prior year to $2.0 million at year end. The loan growth experienced continues to be achieved primarily through the use of independent loan originators and through whole loan purchases. Since Pacific Trust Bank did not have a seasoned portfolio in this type of lending and did not have a related loss history to apply to these types of loans, peer group data adjusted for local economic conditions was used to establish our loan loss allowance, resulting in the $238,000 provision.
This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change. We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the allowance for both periods. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans outstanding decreased to .70% at December 31, 2004 from .72% at December 31, 2003. This decrease was primarily the result of continued growth in the secured portion of Bank’s loan portfolio combined with current economic conditions. The level of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from the estimates.
40
Management assesses the allowance for loan losses quarterly. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future loan loss provisions may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require Pacific Trust Bank to recognize additional provisions based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2004 was maintained at a level that represented management’s best estimate of anticipated losses in the loan portfolio to the extent they were both probable and reasonably estimable.
Noninterest Income.Noninterest income increased $269,000, or 21.0%, to $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, primarily as a result of an increase of $127,000 in customer service fees on deposit accounts, a $93,000 gain made on sale of securities and $55,000 in mortgage loan prepayment penalties. Customer service fees increased as a result of an increased volume of transactions on checking accounts, ATM and debit cards.
Noninterest Expense.Noninterest expense increased $1.1 million, or 10.0%, to $12.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily the result of a $1.1 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $311,000 impairment loss taken on an equity fund investment and an $86,000 increase in professional fees, partially offset by a $118,000 decrease in other general and administrative expenses.
Salaries and employee benefits represented 56.0% and 52.2% of total noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. Total salaries and employee benefits increased $1.1 million, or 17.7%, to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $249,000 in salary expense due to an increase of 11 full time equivalent employees and an increase of $317,000 in RRP compensation expense related to the additional awards made in 2004. Other contributing factors included an increase of $198,000 in the bonus compensation expense due to changes in the bonus structure from the prior period, an increase of $176,000 in ESOP compensation expense resulting from an increase in the Company’s stock price for the period ended December 31, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003, and $118,000 in employee taxes, health insurance and other employee benefits resulting primarily from an increase in number of full time employees.
A $4.5 million equity investment was made in an affordable housing fund for purposes of obtaining tax credits and for Community Reinvestment Act purposes. This investment is regularly evaluated for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the remaining tax credits expected to be received. In December, 2004, an other than temporary impairment loss of $311,000 was recognized. At December 31, 2004, total benefits expected to be received by this investment approximated $4.6 million.
Professional fees increased $86,000 due primarily to increased audit fees associated with the required audit related to the Sarbanes Oxley Act.
Other general and administrative expenses decreased $118,000 due to increased expenses incurred in 2003 related to the initial public offering that occurred in the latter part of 2002.
Income Tax Expense.Income tax expense increased to $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, from $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 43.4% and 41.9% for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002
General.Net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $4.1 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 55.6%, from the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in net income resulted in the fluctuations as described below.
41
Interest Income. Interest income increased by $5.9 million, or 27.0%, to $27.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $21.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002. The primary factor for the increase in interest income was an increase in the average balance of loans receivable of $178.2 million, or 54.7%, from $325.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $504.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily the result of loan originations exceeding repayments due to strong demand, reflecting generally lower interest rates in 2003. A 91 basis point decrease in the average yield on loans receivable, from 6.26% for the year ended December 31, 2002 to 5.35% for the year ended 2003, negatively impacted interest income.
Interest income on securities decreased by $383,000, or 46.8%, to $435,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease resulted from a $5.9 million, or 30.7%, decrease in the average balance of securities, attributable to the increased rate of repayment on collateralized mortgage obligations in a declining interest rate environment. These cash flows were reinvested into higher yielding loans receivable. This decrease was also a result of the average yield on the securities portfolio declining to 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to 4.44% for the year ended 2002, due to generally lower levels of market of rates of interest in 2003.
Interest income from other interest-earning assets decreased $297,000 to $313,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $610,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease resulted from a decrease in the average balance of other interest-earning assets from $25.8 million to $15.1 million, which was due to the temporary investment of funds received from principal repayments on loans and collateralized mortgage obligations.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 12.9%, to $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $8.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in interest expense resulted primarily from an increase in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank advances and, to a lesser extent, deposits. Interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $1.8 million, or 126.6%, to $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase resulted from a $75 million increase in the average balance of FHLB advances from $48.3 million at December 31, 2002 to $123.2 million at December 31, 2003. The average balance of deposits increased from $289.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $326.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Due to a decrease in market rates of interest during the period, the average cost of our interest-bearing liabilities decreased 36 basis points to 2.04% for the period ending December 31, 2003 from 2.40% for the period ended December 31, 2002. As a result, total interest expense on deposits decreased $701,000, or 10.4%, to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Net Interest Income.Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased $4.8 million, or 35.3%, to $18.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The net interest spread decreased 33 basis points to 3.17%, while the net interest margin also decreased 22 basis points during the period to 3.49% from 3.71%. The increase in net interest income primarily reflects the significant increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities increased to 118.23% for the year ended December 31, 2003 from 109.46% in the year ended December 31, 2002.
Provision for Loan Losses.Provisions for loan losses, were charged to operations, at a level required to reflect probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information, and prevailing economic conditions. Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans, such as residential real estate, small commercial real estate, and home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors and peer group data adjusted for current economic conditions. Large balance and/or more complex loans, such as multi-family and commercial real estate loans, and classified loans, are evaluated individually for impairment.
Provisions of $1.3 million and $1.1 million were made for the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The provision increased by $163,000 reflecting a $184.2 million, or 45.4%, increase in gross loans,
42
primarily consisting of residential real estate loans. This growth continues to be achieved primarily through the use of independent loan originators and through whole loan purchases. Since Pacific Trust Bank did not have a seasoned portfolio in this type of lending and did not have a related loss history to apply to these types of loans, peer group data adjusted for local economic conditions was used to establish our loan loss allowance, resulting in the $1.3 million provision. Loan delinquencies increased $4.6 million over the prior year to $4.7 million at year end.
This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change. We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the allowance for both periods.

The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2003 was maintained at a level that represented management’s best estimate of anticipated losses in the loan portfolio to the extent they were both probable and reasonably estimable.
Noninterest Income.Noninterest income increased $232,000, or 22.1%, to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, primarily as a result of a decrease in other income of $57,000, an increase of $151,000 in mortgage loan prepayment penalties, and an increase of $138,000 in customer service fees on deposit accounts. Mortgage loan prepayment penalties increased due to an increase in penalties charged for prepayments during 2003. Customer service fees increased as a result of an increased volume of transactions. Other noninterest income decreased as a result of various declines in miscellaneous smaller balance accounts.
Noninterest Expense.Noninterest expense increased $2.4 million, or 26.9%, to $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $9.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002. This increase was primarily the result of a $1.4 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $580,000 increase in other general and administrative expenses, a $236,000 increase in data processing, a $117,000 increase in advertising expense, a $77,000 increase in ATM cost, and a $60,000 increase in forms and supplies. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased $82,000 from prior year.
Salaries and employee benefits represented 52.2% and 50.8% of total noninterest expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Total salaries and employee benefits increased $1.4 million, or 30.4%, to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. Salaries and employee benefits increased due to the issuance of stock awards during April 2003 resulting in $356,000 of expense and an increase in the number of employees related to the opening of a new branch and increased loan activity due to bringing all servicing in-house. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased from 83 at December 31, 2002 to 106 at December 31, 2003.
Other general and administrative expenses increased $580,000 due to a variety of factors including increased costs related to being a public company such as Nasdaq fees, SEC and OTS filing fees, legal and accounting fees, annual meetings, and printing. In addition, OTS assessment fees and various operating expenses increased as a result of the growth of the Bank and the opening of new branches.
Data processing expense increased $236,000 due to the core system conversion completed in January 2003 and as a result of increased volume in both loans and deposits.
Income Tax Expense.Income tax expense increased to $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, from $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 41.9% and 42.6% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by chargeoffs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, peer group information, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes that the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.
Liquidity and Commitments
The Company is required to have enough investments that qualify as liquid assets in order to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure a safe and sound operation. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, the Company has maintained liquid assets above levels believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained.
The Company’s liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company’s primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Company also generates cash through borrowings. The Company utilizes Federal Home Loan Bank advances to leverage its capital base and provide funds for its lending and investment activities, and to enhance its interest rate risk management.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits or U.S. Agency securities. On a longer term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products as described in greater detail under Item 1. “Business of Pacific Trust Bank - Lending Activities.” The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to pay maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, to fund loan commitments and to maintain its portfolio of mortgage-backed securities and investment securities. At December 31, 2004, the total approved loan origination commitments outstanding amounted to $9.8 million. At the same date, unused lines of credit were $22.8 million and outstanding letters of credit totaled $20,000. There are no investments and mortgage-backed securities scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2004. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2004, totaled $127.6 million. Although the average cost of deposits decreased throughout 2003, management’s policy is to maintain deposit rates at levels that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on the competitive rates and on historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. In addition, the Company has the ability at December 31, 2004 to borrow an additional $124.8 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco as a funding source to meet commitments and for liquidity purposes.

Capital
Consistent with its goals to operate a sound and profitable financial organization, Pacific Trust Bank actively seeks to maintain a “well capitalized” institution in accordance with regulatory standards. Total equity was $69.6 million at December 31, 2004, or 11.8% of total assets on that date. As of December 31, 2004, Pacific Trust Bank exceeded all capital requirements of the Office of Thrift Supervision. Pacific Trust Bank’s regulatory capital ratios at December 31, 2004 were as follows: core capital 10.3%; Tier I risk-based capital, 16.4%; and total risk-based capital, 17.5%. The regulatory capital requirements to be considered well capitalized are 5.0%, 6.0% and 10.0%, respectively.
Impact of Inflation
The consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.
The Company’s primary assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates, however, do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation. In a period of rapidly rising interest rates, the liquidity and maturities structures of our assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.
The principal effect of inflation, as distinct from levels of interest rates, on earnings is in the area of noninterest expense. Such expense items as employee compensation, employee benefits and occupancy and equipment costs may be subject to increases as a result of inflation. An additional effect of inflation is the possible increase in the dollar value of the collateral securing loans that we have made. The Company is unable to determine the extent, if any, to which properties securing our loans have appreciated in dollar value due to inflation.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Asset Liability Management
Our Risk When Interest Rates Change. The rates of interest we earn on assets and pay on liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Market interest rates change over time. Accordingly, our results of operations, like those of other financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities. The risk associated with changes in interest rates and our ability to adapt to these changes is known as interest rate risk and is our most significant market risk.
How We Measure Our Risk of Interest Rate Changes. As part of our attempt to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates and comply with applicable regulations, we monitor our interest rate risk. In monitoring interest rate risk we continually analyze and manage assets and liabilities based on their payment streams and interest rates, the timing of their maturities, and their sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates.
45
In order to manage the potential for adverse effects of material and prolonged increases in interest rates on our results of operations, we adopted asset and liability management policies to better align the maturities and repricing terms of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. These policies are implemented by the asset and liability management committee. The asset and liability management committee is chaired by the treasurer and is comprised of members of our senior management. The asset and liability management committee establishes guidelines for and monitors the volume and mix of assets and funding sources taking into account relative costs and spreads, interest rate sensitivity and liquidity needs. The objectives are to manage assets and funding sources to produce results that are consistent with liquidity, capital adequacy, growth, risk and profitability goals. The asset and liability management committee generally meets on at least a monthly basis to review, among other things, economic conditions and interest rate outlook, current and projected liquidity needs and capital position, anticipated changes in the volume and mix of assets and liabilities and interest rate risk exposure limits versus current projections pursuant to net present value of portfolio equity analysis. At each meeting, the asset and liability management committee recommends appropriate strategy changes based on this review. The treasurer or his designee is responsible for reviewing and reporting on the effects of the policy implementations and strategies to the board of directors on a monthly basis.
In order to manage our assets and liabilities and achieve the desired liquidity, credit quality, interest rate risk, profitability and capital targets, we have focused our strategies on:
| • | | originating and purchasing adjustable-rate mortgage loans, |
| • | | originating shorter-term consumer loans, |
| • | | managing our deposits to establish stable deposit relationships, |
| • | | using FHLB advances to align maturities and repricing terms, and |
| • | | attempting to limit the percentage of fixed-rate loans in our portfolio. |
At times, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the asset and liability management committee may determine to increase the Company’s interest rate risk position somewhat in order to maintain its net interest margin.
As part of its procedures, the asset and liability management committee regularly reviews interest rate risk by forecasting the impact of alternative interest rate environments on net interest income and market value of portfolio equity, which is defined as the net present value of an institution’s existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, and evaluating such impacts against the maximum potential changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio equity that are authorized by the board of directors of the Company.
The Office of Thrift Supervision provides Pacific Trust Bank with the information presented in the following tables. They present the change in Pacific Trust Bank’s net portfolio value at December 31, 2004 and 2003, that would occur upon an immediate change in interest rates based on Office of Thrift Supervision assumptions, but without effect to any steps that management might take to counteract that change. A reduction in interest rates of more than 100 basis points is not presented because it would compute to a rate less than zero for certain products.

The Office of Thrift Supervision uses certain assumptions in assessing the interest rate risk of savings associations. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, and the market values of certain assets under differing interest rate scenarios, among others.
As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgage loans, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, if interest rates change, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
NOTE 1 - CONVERSION TO STOCK FORM OF OWNERSHIP
On March 1, 2002, the Board of Directors of Pacific Trust Bank (the Bank) adopted a plan of conversion to convert from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally chartered stock savings bank with the concurrent formation of a holding company. The conversion was accomplished through the sale of all of the Bank’s stock to First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) and the sale of the Company’s stock to the public on August 22, 2002.
In connection with the conversion, the Company issued 5,290,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $63.5 million. The Company loaned $5.1 million to the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) to purchase stock in the offering and incurred $1.7 million of expenses associated with the offering, resulting in net proceeds of $56.7 million. The aggregate purchase price was determined by an independent appraisal. The Bank issued all of its outstanding capital stock to the Company in exchange for one-half of the net proceeds of the offering.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,Business Combinations, when accounting for a transfer of assets or exchange of shares between entities under common control, the entity that receives the net assets or the equity interests shall initially recognize the assets and liabilities transferred at their carrying amounts in the accounts of the transferring entity at the date of transfer. Therefore, First PacTrust Bancorp, Inc. recorded the acquisition of the Bank at historical cost.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Nature of Operations: The only business of the Company is the ownership of the Bank. The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank and member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system, which maintains insurance on deposit accounts with the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank is engaged in the business of retail banking with operations conducted through its main office and eight branches located in the San Diego and Riverside counties.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are based upon accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. Significant accounting polices followed by the Company are presented below.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The collectibility of loans, fair value of financial instruments, and status of contingencies are particularly subject to change.
Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits with other financial institutions under 90 days, and daily federal funds sold. The Company reports net cash flows for customer loan transactions and deposit transactions and interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions.
Interest-bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions: Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature within one year and are carried at cost.
Securities: Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold those securities to maturity. Accordingly, they are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. All other securities are classified as available for sale since the Company may decide to sell those securities in response to changes in market interest rates, liquidity needs, changes in yields or alternative investments, and for other reasons. These securities are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, reported in other comprehensive income. Other securities such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock are carried at cost.
Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and based on the amortized cost of the security sold.
Declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are other than temporary are reflected as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers: (1) the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the Company’s ability and intent to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Affordable Housing Fund: The Company has a 19% equity investment in an affordable housing fund totaling $4.2 million, with a commitment to fund an additional $300, for purposes of obtaining tax credits and for Community Reinvestment Act purposes. This investment is recorded in other assets on the balance sheet and is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its ownership share of the profits and losses of the Fund. This investment is regularly evaluated for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the remaining tax credits expected to be received. In December 2004, the Company recognized an impairment charge on an equity investment in an affordable housing fund which was considered to have other than temporary loss. The Company adjusted the basis (carrying value) of the security to reflect its fair value at the date of impairment recognizing a loss of $311.
Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or repayment are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 91 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, peer group information, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.
A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature, such as residential mortgage and consumer loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Servicing Agent Receivable: The Bank contracted with a servicing agent to process payments and service a portion of the Bank’s real estate loan portfolio. The servicing agent remits cash receipts within 15 days of the end of each month for loan payments received. These cash amounts are reflected as due from servicing agent on the consolidated statements of financial condition. During April 2003, loan servicing was brought in-house and the contract with the servicing agent was canceled.
Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Buildings are depreciated using the straight-line method with an average useful life of 39 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives not to exceed the lease term. Lease terms range up to ten years. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from five to seven years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements that extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized.
Long-term Assets:Premises and equipment, core deposit and other intangible assets, and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Statements: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. Instruments, such as standby letters of credit, that are considered financial guarantees in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45 are recorded at fair value.
Stock Compensation: Employee compensation expense under stock options is reported using the intrinsic value method. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was measured using the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.

Income Taxes: The Company records income tax expense based on the amount of taxes due on its tax return, plus deferred taxes computed on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan: The cost of shares issued to the ESOP but not yet allocated to participants is shown as a reduction of shareholders’ equity. Compensation expense is based on the market price of shares as they are committed to be released to participant accounts. Dividends on allocated and/or unearned shares first reduces retained accrued interest and secondly principal.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Earnings Per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options and stock awards. Earnings per share are calculated beginning with August 22, 2002, the date of conversion.
Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, net of tax, which are also recognized as a separate component of equity.
New Accounting Standards: SOP 03-3 requires that a valuation allowance for loans acquired in a transfer, including in a business combination, reflect only losses incurred after acquisition and should not be recorded at acquisition. It applies to any loan acquired in a transfer that showed evidence of credit quality deterioration since it was made.
In March 2004, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus regarding EITF 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.” The consensus clarifies the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its application to investments classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity under SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” and investments accounted for under the cost method or the equity method. The recognition and measurement guidance for which the consensus was reached is to be applied to other-than-temporary impairment evaluations. In September 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a final FASB Staff Position, FSP EITF Issue 03-01-1, which delays the effective date for the measurement and recognition guidance of EITF 03-01. The comment period is currently open related to this staff position. The implementation date is unknown until further guidance is issued by the FASB. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting EITF 03-01.
SFAS 123R, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Revised,” requires all public companies to record compensation cost for stock options provided to employees in return for employee service. The cost is measured at the fair value of the options when granted, and this cost is expensed over the employee service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options. This will apply to awards granted or modified as of the beginning of the first quarter or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Compensation cost will also be recorded on the date of grant as the Company’s options vest immediately. The effect on results of operations will depend on the level of future option grants and the calculation of the fair value of the options granted at such future date and so cannot currently be predicted. No existing options vest after adoption date so no additional compensation expense will be recorded subsequent to the date of adoption with respect to outstanding options. There will be no significant effect on financial position as total equity will not change.
Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Operating Segments: While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, the identifiable segments are not material and operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment-at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition.
As of December 31, 2004, the Company had recorded $32 of unrealized losses on two agency securities. The unrealized losses relate principally to the general change in interest rate levels that has occurred since the securities purchase dates, and such unrecognized losses or gains will continue to vary with general interest rate level fluctuations in the future. In analyzing the issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports. As management has the ability to hold these debt securities, classified as available for sale, for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

NOTE 8 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP)
In connection with the conversion, the Bank established an ESOP for the benefit of its employees.

The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Company’s contributions to the ESOP and earnings on ESOP assets. Principal payments are scheduled to occur over a ten-year period. Dividends on allocated and/or unearned shares first reduces accrued interest and secondly principal.

NOTE 10 - LOAN COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES
Some financial instruments such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contact are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance-sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although

material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.
The contractual amount of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows at year end:

At December 31, 2004 and 2003, fixed rate commitments to extend credit consisted of $5,910 and $470 respectively. The fixed rate commitments at December 31, 2004 are due to expire within 1 to 60 days of issuance and have rates ranging from 5.25% to 7.95% and maturities ranging from 1 years to 5 years.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Bank to concentrations of credit risk include interest-bearing deposit accounts in other financial institutions, and loans. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Bank had deposit accounts with balances totaling approximately $2,401 and $2,084 at Pacific Coast Bankers Bank.
NOTE 11 - MINIMUM REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
Banks are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action.

NOTE 11 - MINIMUM REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS (Continued)
Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At year-end 2004 and 2003, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.
Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below at year-end.

The Qualified Thrift Lender test requires at least 65% of assets be maintained in housing-related finance and other specified areas. If this test is not met, limits are placed on growth, branching, new investments, FHLB advances and dividends, or the Bank must convert to a commercial bank charter. Management believes that this test is met.

NOTE 11 - MINIMUM REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS (Continued)
Banking regulations limit capital distributions by savings associations (or national banks). Generally, capital distributions are limited to undistributed net income for the current and prior two years. At year-end 2004, approximately $12.0 million is available to pay dividends to the holding company. These regulations pose no practical restrictions to paying dividends at historical levels.
NOTE 12 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Bank has a 401(k) plan whereby substantially all employees participate in the plan. Employees may contribute up to 15% of their compensation subject to certain limits based on federal tax laws. The Bank makes matching contributions, to be determined annually by management, on the first 4% of the employee’s compensation contributed to the plan. Matching contributions vest to the employee at the end of the calendar year in which the contribution was made. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, expense attributable to the plan amounted to $70, $67, and $72.
Effective June 1, 2001, the Board of Directors adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of this plan is to provide specified benefits to a select group of management and highly compensated employees. Participants may elect to defer compensation, which accrues interest quarterly at the prime rate as reflected inThe Wall Street Journal as of the last business day of the prior quarter. The Company does not make contributions to the Plan.
NOTE 13 - EMPLOYEE STOCK COMPENSATION
RRP Plan: A Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP) provides for issue of shares to directors, officers, and employees. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the shares as of the market value at date of grant. Pursuant to its 2003 stock-based incentive plan, total shares issuable under the plan are 211,600. The Company awarded 41,800 and 170,000 shares of restricted stock during 2004 and 2003 of which 12,000 shares have been forfeited. These shares vest over a five-year period. The unamortized cost of shares not yet earned (vested) is reported as a reduction of shareholders’ equity.

NOTE 16 - FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing deposits with other financial institutions, FHLB stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes and, if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed rate loans and deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk.
The fair value of advances from the FHLB is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is based on the current fees or the cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements. The fair value of off-balance-sheet financial instruments is immaterial.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
No disclosure is required under this Item.
Item 9A.Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Section 13(a)-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2004, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the our Chief Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer and several other members of our senior management within the 90-day period preceding the filing date of this annual report. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2004, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2004, that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgment in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
78
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the”Act”) imposed many requirements regarding corporate governance and financial reporting. One requirement under Section 404 of the Act, beginning with this annual report, is for management to report on the effectiveness ofFirst PacTrust’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, and for our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to this report. On November 30, 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued an exemptive order providing a 45-day extension for the filing of these reports and attestations by eligible companies. We elected to utilize this 45-day extension; accordingly this Form 10-K does not include these reports but an amendment to this Form 10-K, including these reports will be filed on or before May 2, 2005. Currently, we are not aware of any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
