(2)Business Combinations

Acquisition of Calnet Business Bank, N.A.

On March 3, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Calnet, which was merged into the Bank. Calnet was headquartered in Sacramento, California and conducted its deposit gathering and lending operations from a single location. The Company issued 2,339,327 shares of its common stock for the outstanding shares of common stock of Calnet and 307,351 options to purchase the Company’s common stock for Calnet’s outstanding options. The valuation of the Company’s common stock issued was based upon the average of the per share closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ over a specified time period, or $16.19. The fair value of the options was $6.44 at the close of the acquisition as determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were utilized in determining the fair value of the options: expected life of 1 year, risk-free interest rate of 4.74%, volatility of 29.78% and dividend yield of 1.85%.

8

The allocation of the purchase price to arrive at the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed relating to the Calnet acquisition is summarized below:

	(Dollars in thousands)
Cash	$	85,372
Securities	30,283
Federal Home Loan Bank stock	623
Loans, net of allowance	106,527
Premises and equipment, net	703
Accrued interest	590
Goodwill	18,041
Core deposit intangible	1,600
Other assets	1,474
Deposit balances	(200,526		)
Other liabilities	(4,082		)
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	40,605
Total purchase price	$	40,605

The purchase accounting adjustments recorded as part of the acquisition of Calnet resulted in a fair value adjustment of a net premium of $270,000 to the carrying value of loans. This premium is being amortized over the estimated remaining life of the loans and is expected to be amortized through interest income over 19 months. The goodwill of $18.0 million will not be amortized but will be evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and will not be deductible for tax purposes. The total amount of goodwill recorded was allocated to the Bank and reflected in the Bank operating segment discussed in Note 7. The core deposit intangible of $1.6 million is being amortized over 7.5 years. In connection with the closing of the Calnet acquisition, the Company sold the $30.3 million in securities that were carried on the books of Calnet shortly after the closing of the acquisition. The proceeds from the sale of securities were used to repay short-term borrowings of the Bank.

Professional and legal fees of $760,000 related to the Calnet acquisition have been capitalized as part of the purchase price. In addition, total severance and related costs of $1.2 million were recorded as part of the acquisition transaction. As of March 31, 2006, all of these costs have been incurred and paid, except for $338,000 of legal and advisory fees.

Acquisition of Lawyers Asset Management, Inc

On March 30, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of LAMI, a “qualified intermediary”, which facilitates tax-deferred real estate exchanges pursuant to the Code, in an all stock transaction with a fixed value of $8.0 million, representing 549,638 shares of the Company’s common stock. LAMI operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Commercial Capital Bancorp. The Company used the purchase method of accounting and as such, the operations of LAMI are reflected in the results of the Company’s operations after March 30, 2006. The valuation of the common stock issued was based on the average of the per share closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ over a specified time period, which was $14.42. At the closing, the Company delivered 274,819 shares of stock to the LAMI shareholder, and placed into escrow the same number of shares (“contingent shares”), which will be distributed in full on the one-year anniversary of the transaction closing date, subject to certain contingencies. The distribution of the contingent shares is dependent upon there being no material changes or amendment to Section 1031 of the Code prior to their distribution that would eliminate the benefits associated with offering Section 1031-exchange services. Currently, no such changes or amendments to Section 1031 of the Code have occurred. The contingent shares are also available initially to satisfy claims to the extent that any arise against LAMI in accordance with the acquisition agreement. The contingent shares fully vest upon a change in control of the Company, such as is contemplated by certain subsequent events. See Note 9.

9

The allocation of the purchase price to arrive at the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed relating to the LAMI acquisition is summarized below:

	(Dollars in thousands)
Cash	$	116,803
Goodwill	3,739
Other assets	20
Exchange balances	(116,442		)
Other liabilities	(20		)
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	4,100
Fair value of contingent shares held in escrow	3,962
Total purchase price	$	8,062

The carrying value of goodwill recorded at acquisition excludes the 274,819 contingent shares subject to the contingencies described above. When these shares are no longer subject to the contingency in accordance with the acquisition agreement, the fair value of these shares will be recorded as an increase to the Company’s stockholders’ equity and goodwill. Total goodwill recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of LAMI was allocated to LAMI, which is a component of the Company’s 1031 exchange accommodator operating segment discussed in Note 7. Exchange balances represent amounts due to LAMI’s clients at the completion of the client’s 1031 exchange transaction. Due to the short-term nature of the exchange balances, the carrying value was deemed to be consistent with the fair value at the acquisition date.

Professional and legal fees of $138,000 related to the LAMI acquisition have been capitalized as part of the purchase price. As of March 31, 2006, all of these costs have been incurred and paid, except $20,000 of remaining legal fees.

	Three Months ended

(5)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), which requires the cost resulting from stock options be measured at fair value and recognized in earnings. This Statement replaces Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (“APB No. 25”) which permitted the recognition of compensation expense using the intrinsic value method. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. As a result of adoption, the Company’s income before income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006 included stock option compensation expense of $81,000. There was no retrospective adjustment to the Company’s consolidated net income as a result of the implementation of SFAS No. 123(R).

The following table summarizes pro-forma net income and earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2005, assuming the retrospective impact of implementation of SFAS 123(R):

Reported net income	$	23,087

As of March 31, 2006, the Company has four stock incentive plans that provide for the granting of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, performance awards and other stock-related awards to employees (including officers and directors), non-employee directors, consultants and other independent advisors. The plans included the Commercial Capital Bancorp 2000 Stock Plan (“2000 Stock Plan”), the Commercial Capital Bancorp 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2004 Stock Plan”), the Hawthorne 2001 Stock Incentive Plan and the Calnet Business Bank, National Association 2001 Stock Option Plan. As of March 31, 2006, unvested options exist only under the 2000 Stock Plan and 2004 Stock Plan. Options granted under the 2000 and 2004 Stock Plans have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant, vest over three years of continuous service and expire ten years from the date of grant. All of the stock options would fully vest upon a change in control of the Company. See Note 9.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock plans under the recognition and measurement provision of APB No. 25, as permitted under SFAS No. 123. As such, the Company did not recognize compensation expense related to stock options in its Statements of Income as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition method under SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, compensation expense recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2006 includes compensation expense for all options granted prior to January 1, 2006, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, and all options granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 123(R).

The fair value of options is estimated at the grant date using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. In determining the compensation amounts for all grants prior to the Company’s initial public offering in December 2002, the value of the options granted were estimated at the date of grant using the minimum value method prescribed in SFAS No. 123. There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2006. For the option grants during the three month period March 31, 2005, the risk-free interest rates ranged between 3.92 % and 4.44% with an estimated life of the options of seven years, volatility ranged between 40.05% and 42.19% and the dividend rate ranged between 1.01% and 1.19% on the stock. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected term of the options is based on the analysis of the vesting period and contractual life and historical exercise activity. The risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and the dividend range is based on the Company’s actual dividend activity at the time of grant.

Option activity under the stock plans as of March 31, 2006, and changes during the period ended March 31, 2006, follows:

	Shares		Weighted average price		Weighted average remaining contractual term (in years)
Under option, beginning of year	3,355,490		$	4.46
Granted	—		—
Issued for Calnet Acquisition	307,351		9.96
Terminated and canceled	—		—
Exercised	(155,662	)	3.52
Options outstanding, March 31, 2006	3,507,179		4.98		6.52
Options exercisable, March 31, 2006	3,431,930		4.78		6.07

12

The aggregate fair value of options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2006 was $5.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively. The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $111,000. The total fair value of options exercised during the periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $357,000 and $1.4 million, respectively.

The following table includes the activity related to nonvested shares during the three month period ending March 31, 2006:

	Shares		Weighted average grant-date fair value
Nonvested options, beginning of year	106,101		$	5.65
Granted	—		—
Vested	(30,852	)	4.58
Terminated and canceled	—		—
Nonvested options, March 31, 2006	75,249		$	6.10

As of March 31, 2006, there was $213,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested options under the 2000 and 2004 Stock Plans. That expense is expected to be realized over the next 14 months. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $141,000.

Cash received from option exercise under the various plans for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $548,000 and $883,000, respectively. The actual tax benefit for the tax deductions from option exercises totaled $725,000 and $2.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.

The stock plans also allow for grants of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. Restricted stock awards were granted to employees and directors beginning in 2004. The restricted stock awards have a term of three years and vest one-third on each of the next three anniversary dates. The restricted stock awards also fully vest upon a change in control of the Company. See Note 9. Voting and dividend rights are granted to the employee or director at date of grant of the restricted stock awards. The adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not result in a material change to the accounting for restricted stock. The Company recorded net compensation expense of $1.5 million and $241,000 related to restricted stock awards for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The actual tax benefit for the tax deductions from vested restricted stock awards totaled $19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The Company recorded a tax liability of $483,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 related to vested restricted stock awards. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company repurchased 34,917 shares as a result of vested restricted stock awards surrendered by employees. These shares are reflected as treasury shares as of March 31, 2006.

The following table includes the activity related to nonvested shares during the three-month periods indicated below:

	March 31, 2006				March 31, 2005
	Shares		Weighted average per share fair value		Shares		Weighted average per share fair value
Nonvested, beginning of year	360,653		$	20.03	21,806		$	16.05
Granted	279,931		15.66		140,554		23.70
Vested	(99,487	)	15.85		(7,267	)	16.05
Terminated and canceled	(17,370	)	18.35		(3,833	)	22.04
Nonvested, March 31, 2006	523,727		18.54		151,260		23.01

As of March 31, 2006, there was $8.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested restricted stock awards.

13

In July 2005, the Company granted 240,000 share right awards under the 2001 Stock Plan. The grant date fair value of the awards totaled $4.4 million. The share right awards are performance based and provide voting or dividend rights upon vesting. The share right awards vest only upon attainment of certain performance targets and have no stated expiration date. The Company employs variable accounting and recognizes the fair value of the share right awards over the period in which the performance targets are anticipated to be achieved. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded a net recapture of compensation expense related to share right awards of $362,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, there have been no additional grants, vesting or cancellation of share right awards.

(7)Operating Segments

At March 31, 2006, the Company’s primary operating segments consist of its banking operations and 1031 exchange accommodator business. The banking operations are conducted solely through the Bank while the 1031 exchange accommodator business is conducted through TIMCOR, NAEC and LAMI. The Bank, TIMCOR and LAMI are separate operating subsidiaries of Commercial Capital Bancorp while NAEC is a separate operating subsidiary of TIMCOR. The 1031 exchange accommodator business is considered a primary operating segment for periods beginning after February 17, 2005. The 1031 exchange accommodator business generates income through 1031 exchange fees, which are reflected as a component of noninterest income in the consolidated statement of income and are recognized when fees are received from the exchange customer upon completion of the 1031 exchange transaction. CCM and ComCap are shown as separate operating segments as these entities do not possess the similar economic characteristics necessary for aggregation. The CCM and ComCap operating segments are not considered primary operating segments of the Company due to lack of operations during 2006 and 2005. The “consolidation adjustments” category reflects the elimination of intercompany transactions upon consolidation.

Accounting policies followed by the operating segments are consistent with those followed on a consolidated basis. Commercial Capital Bancorp and the Bank have entered into a master services agreement whereby expenses paid by one party are reimbursed by the other in accordance with the agreement. Further, all companies hold on deposit with the Bank operating and other cash balances on which the Bank may pay interest. As such, the interest income reported by the operating segments on these cash balances is the amount received from the Bank and other financial institutions. However, for the 2005 periods, the net interest income reported by the 1031 exchange accommodator operating segment does not include the additional economic benefits associated with the favorable spread between the lower cost exchange balances available to the Bank and the higher cost wholesale funding alternatives which it would otherwise have to utilize. Beginning in 2006, the Bank implemented a transfer pricing model so that stand-alone net interest income reported by the 1031 exchange accommodator operating segment would reflect such additional economic benefits. Intercompany deposits are reflected as a component of the Bank’s total deposit liabilities and interest paid to operating segments is reflected as a component of the Bank’s interest expense. Accordingly, the cash and deposit balances along with any related interest income and expense are eliminated upon consolidation.

Financial highlights by operating segment were as follows:

(8)Stock Repurchase Plan

On January 25, 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a second stock repurchase program, providing for the repurchase of up to 2.5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, which amounted to 1,366,447 shares. On February 2, 2005, the Company announced the completion of its first stock repurchase plan and now operates under the second plan. The Company did not repurchase shares under an announced plan during the three months ended March 31, 2006. At March 31, 2006, there were 532,463 shares of the Company’s common stock that may yet be repurchased under the current stock repurchase plan. On October 12, 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized an additional repurchase program, providing for the repurchase of up to $20 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. Using the Company’s closing stock price of $14.06 at March 31, 2006, approximately 1,422,475 shares may yet be repurchased under this repurchase program. The additional program will only take effect upon the completion of the Company’s current stock repurchase program.

(9)Subsequent Events

On April 23, 2006, the Company and Washington Mutual, Inc. (“Washington Mutual”), announced they had entered into a Definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which Washington Mutual will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock in exchange for $16.00 per share in cash. The transaction is valued in the aggregate at approximately $983 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third calendar quarter of 2006, pending approval of the merger agreement by the Company’s shareholders, regulatory approval and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The merger agreement provides for certain operational restrictions that the Company will be required to comply with pending completion of the merger. These restrictions may impact the operating results of the Company.

General

We are Commercial Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a diversified financial institution holding company, which conducts operations through our subsidiaries, Commercial Capital Bank, FSB (the “Bank”), TIMCOR Exchange Corporation (“TIMCOR”), North American Exchange Company (“NAEC”) and Lawyers Asset Management, Inc. (“LAMI”). At the most recent date for which such information is available, the Company was the 23rd largest thrift in the country and the fifth largest in California, according to SNL Financial. We are recognized as one of the leading originators of multifamily residential real estate loans in California, where the market for multifamily residential loans is highly fragmented. According to DataQuick, which measures originations in California, we ranked third in the state in originations of such loans for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2005, with an aggregate of 3.63% of total originations.

Our primary operations are conducted through the Bank, which conducts banking operations through 24 branch offices and 11 lending offices located in both Southern and Northern California. In January 2006, we opened a banking office in Newport Coast, California and have announced plans to open two additional banking offices located in Pasadena and Valencia, California during 2006. In addition, the acquisition of Calnet Business Bank, N.A. (“Calnet”) in March 2006 provided a branch location in Sacramento, California.

Our 1031 exchange accommodator business is conducted through TIMCOR, NAEC and LAMI. TIMCOR is headquartered in Los Angeles, California and has offices located in Houston, Texas; Chicago, Illinois; Richmond, Virginia and Miami, Florida. NAEC is headquartered in Walnut Creek, California and maintains offices in Long Beach and La Jolla, California, Arlington, Virginia and Miami, Florida. NAEC also has a presence in San Francisco and Los Angeles, California; Seattle, Washington; Denver, Colorado; Dallas, Texas; Charlotte, North Carolina; Miami, Florida; and Washington, D.C. LAMI operates through its headquarters in Oakland, California.

On March 30, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of LAMI, a “qualified intermediary”, which facilitates tax-deferred real estate exchanges pursuant to the Code, in an all stock transaction with a fixed value of $8.0 million, representing 549,638 shares of the Company’s common stock. LAMI operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company used the purchase method of accounting and as such, the operations of LAMI are reflected in the results of the Company’s operations after March 30, 2006. The valuation of the common stock issued was based on the average of the per share closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ over a specified time period, which was $14.42.

On March 3, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Calnet, which was merged into the Bank. Calnet is headquartered in Sacramento, California and conducts its deposit gathering and lending operations from a single location. The Company issued 2,339,327 shares of its common stock for the outstanding shares of Calnet and 307,351 options to purchase the Company’s common stock for Calnet’s outstanding options. The valuation of the common stock issued was based upon the average of the per share closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ over a specified time period, or $16.19. The Company used the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, Calnet’s operating results have been included in the consolidated financial statements from March 3, 2006.

Recent Developments

On April 23, 2006, the Company and Washington Mutual, Inc. (“Washington Mutual”), announced they had entered into a Definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which Washington Mutual will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the common stock in exchange for $16.00 per share in cash. The transaction is valued in the aggregate at approximately $983 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third calendar quarter of 2006, pending approval of the merger agreement by the Company’s shareholders, regulatory approval and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The merger agreement provides for certain operational restrictions that the Company will be required to comply with pending completion of the merger. These restrictions may impact the operating results of the Company.

17

On April 24, 2006, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.075 per share to be paid on May 31, 2006 to shareholders of record on May 17, 2006.

Critical Accounting Policies

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in our consolidated financial statements. Four of our accounting policies are critical as they require management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These policies govern the allowance for loan losses, the accounting for impairment of goodwill and core deposit intangible, stock compensation and income taxes. Management has reviewed and approved these critical accounting policies and has discussed these policies with the Audit Committee. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.

Allowance for Loan Losses. Our allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense and may be reduced by a recapture of the allowance, which is also reflected in the statement of income. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing loans based on an evaluation of the collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. This evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic or other conditions.

Impairment of Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible. As a result of our acquisition activity, goodwill and a core deposit intangible asset have been added to our balance sheet. While the core deposit intangible arising from our acquisition of Hawthorne Financial in June 2004 will be amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years and the core deposit intangible from the Calnet acquisition will be amortized over its estimated useful life of 7.5 years, the amortization of goodwill was discontinued for periods after December 31, 2001 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Instead, goodwill, a long-lived asset, is required to be evaluated for impairment at least annually. The process of evaluating goodwill for impairment requires us to make several assumptions and estimates including forecasts of future earnings, market trends and market multiples of companies engaged in similar lines of business. If any of the assumptions used in the valuation of our goodwill change over time, the estimated value assigned to our goodwill could differ significantly, including a decrease in the value of goodwill, which would result in a charge to our operations. The calculation and subsequent amortization of a core deposit intangible also requires several assumptions including, among other things, the estimated cost to service deposits acquired, discount rates, estimated attrition rates of the acquired deposits and its estimated useful life. If the value of the core deposit intangible is determined to be less than the carrying value in future periods, a write-down would be taken of the core deposit intangible through a charge to earnings.

Stock Compensation. Our stock compensation plans currently allow for the grants of incentive and nonqualified stock options to purchase the shares of the Company’s common stock and other stock awards, which are granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors to management, employees, non-employee directors, consultants and other independent advisors to the Company. Other types of stock awards issued under the Company’s stock compensation plans also include restricted stock awards and share right awards. The stock options are accounted for under the fair value method in accordance with SFAS 123R and the impact of the fair value of these awards is reflected as a component of compensation expense in the company’s income statement, over the vesting period on the options. Restricted stock awards issued to date are considered fixed awards as the number of shares and fair value is known at the grant date. The Company’s income statement reflects the grant date fair value of these awards as a component of compensation expense over the vesting period of the fixed awards. The share right awards are considered variable awards as the number of shares and ultimate vesting of shares is based on the achievement of certain performance targets in the future. As such, management must estimate the total compensation expense related to the variable awards until such awards have vested. At each interim reporting period, management

18

estimates the ultimate vesting period of the variable awards and the value of these awards, using the Company’s current stock price, and records the pro-rata portion of compensation expense in the Company’s income statement. Compensation expense recognized in the Company’s income statement may fluctuate as a result of changes in management’s estimate of the vesting period related to the variable awards as well as changes in the Company’s stock price.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes is based on income reported for financial statement purposes and differs from the amount of taxes currently payable, as certain income and expense items are reported for financial statement purposes in different periods than those for tax reporting purposes. In addition, management may utilize certain estimates in determining the provision for income taxes in interim and annual periods. These estimates primarily include management’s assessment of the realization of certain income tax credits and tax-exempt income. Management considers the relative merits and risks of appropriate tax treatment in accordance with statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance. However, fluctuations in management’s estimates in determining the Company’s tax provision may materially impact the Company’s results in a given reporting period.

Operating Segments

Our primary operating segments consist of our banking operations and 1031 exchange accommodator business. The banking operations are conducted solely through the Bank while the 1031 exchange business is conducted through TIMCOR, NAEC, and LAMI. The Bank, TIMCOR and LAMI are separate operating subsidiaries of the Company while NAEC is a separate operating subsidiary of TIMCOR. For total assets and statement of income information on our primary operating segments as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, see Note 7 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 hereof.

Changes in Financial Condition

General. We had total consolidated assets of $5.7 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of 5% from $5.5 billion at December 31, 2005. The growth in assets was primarily driven by loan fundings of multifamily, commercial real estate and construction loans and through the acquisition of Calnet. Total loans, which include loans held-for-investment, net of the allowance for loan losses, and loans held-for-sale, totaled $4.6 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of 7% from $4.3 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase in total loans included the addition of approximately $106.5 million in net loans acquired in the Calnet acquisition. Loans held-for-sale totaled $36.0 million at March 31, 2006, which include $35.0 million of multifamily loans held-for-sale due to loans to one borrower limitations and anticipated sales under the FNMA Mflex program. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, loan sales totaled $19.8 million and primarily included the sale of multifamily loans under the FNMA Mflex program. Goodwill totaled $422.6 million at March 31, 2006, an increase of $25.4 million from December 31, 2005. The Calnet acquisition resulted in additional goodwill of $18.0 million and the acquisition of LAMI also contributed $3.7 million of goodwill as of March 31, 2006. In addition, the remaining 170,315 contingent shares at December 31, 2005 related to the TIMCOR acquisition were released on the one-year anniversary of the acquisition, which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $3.6 million. Total deposits totaled $2.5 billion, an increase $237.0 million from December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of $200.5 million in predominantly low-cost transaction accounts acquired in the Calnet acquisition.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $41.6 million at March 31, 2006 and $33.7 million at December 31, 2005. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2006 and 2005 included $17.1 million and zero, respectively, of federal funds sold. We believe that we have sufficient sources of liquidity to fund our operations and future balance sheet growth. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Securities. Our securities portfolio consists of mortgage-backed securities, which are insured or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises such as Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Such securities generally increase the overall credit quality of our assets because they are triple-A (AAA) rated, have underlying insurance or guarantees, require less capital under risk-based regulatory capital requirements than non-insured or non-guaranteed mortgage loans, are more liquid than individual mortgage loans and may be used to efficiently collateralize our borrowings or other obligations. Our securities portfolio totaled $366.1 million at March 31, 2006, a decrease of 5% from $384.1 million at December 31, 2005. Mortgage-backed securities declined to 6% of total assets at March 31, 2006 as compared to 7% as of December 31, 2005. We continue to reinvest cash flows received from our securities portfolio into higher yielding, adjustable rate loans. As discussed above, we sold the entire $30.3 million in securities acquired from Calnet subsequent to the acquisition date, the proceeds of which were used to repay short-term borrowings. At March 31, 2006, all securities were classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. At March 31, 2006, our securities portfolio had an aggregate of $14.9 million of unrealized losses. The unrealized losses as of March 31, 2006 are a result of the level of market

19

interest rates and are not a result of the underlying issuers’ ability to repay. Accordingly, we have not recorded these unrealized losses in our consolidated statement of income.

Total Loans and Loan Fundings. At March 31, 2006, we had total loans of $4.6 billion compared to $4.3 billion at December 31, 2005. The following table sets forth the composition of our loans held-for-investment by type of loan and the total amount of loans classified as held-for-sale:

	March 31, 2006			December 31, 2005
	(Dollars in thousands)
Real estate mortgage loans:
Single family (one to four units)	$	428,904		$	394,678
Multifamily (five units or over)	3,110,643			3,050,931
Commercial real estate	692,635			601,665
Construction	247,638			202,237
Land	94,695			74,948
Total real estate loans	4,574,515			4,324,459
Business, consumer and other loans	32,746			12,396
Total loans held-for-investment	4,607,261			4,336,855
Net deferred loan costs (fees), premiums and discounts	5,100			3,427
Allowance for loan losses	(29,955		)	(28,705		)
Total loans held-for-investment, net	$	4,582,406		$	4,311,577
Loans held-for-sale	35,974			23,961
Total loans	$	4,618,380		$	4,335,538

Total loans increased $282.8 million, or 7%, from December 31, 2005 to March 31, 2006. Total loans held-for-investment, net of deferred loan fees, premiums, discounts and the allowance for loan losses, increased $270.8 million, or 6%. The increase in total loans held-for-investment included the addition of approximately $106.5 million in net loans acquired in the Calnet acquisition. The loans acquired in the Calnet acquisition primarily included commercial business lines of credit, secured and unsecured, that are indexed to prime. In addition to the growth from the Calnet acquisition, our total loan fundings of $510.2 million coupled with a reduction in loan sales during the period ended March 31, 2006 contributed to the growth in the total loans held-for-investment.

Our loans held-for-sale at March 31, 2006 includes one multifamily loan held by CCM totaling $959,000 and 13 multifamily loans totaling $33.9 million held by the Bank. Loans held-for-sale by the Bank include one fixed rate loan committed for sale under the FNMA Mflex program and 12 adjustable rate multifamily loans that were designated as held-for-sale due to loans-to-one-borrower limitations.

Overall, the mix of the loans held-for-investment portfolio at March 31, 2006 remained consistent with the mix at December 31, 2005. Our multifamily loans held-for-investment represents 68% of total loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2006 as compared to 70% at December 31, 2005. Our commercial real estate portfolio represents 15% of total loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Additionally, our construction and land loans were 7% of total loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. We had core loan fundings of $492.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to core loan fundings of $595.1 million for the same period in the prior year. We define core loan fundings as total loan originations and purchases net of loans that are funded through our strategic alliance with Greystone Servicing Corporation, a Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (“DUS”) lender, and our other broker and conduit channels, which totaled $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $12.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Our total loan fundings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 totaled $510.2 million as compared to total loan fundings of $607.8 million for the same period in the prior year. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, our core loan fundings included the purchase of $6.2 million of multifamily, commercial real estate and construction loans. The loans purchased during 2006 were primarily adjustable rate and were reviewed and approved in accordance with our established loan origination policies and procedures.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $30.0 million as of March 31, 2006, a $1.3 million increase from $28.7 million as of December 31, 2005. The increase in the current period resulted from the Calnet acquisition, as $1.2 million in allowance for loan losses was transferred at the acquisition date. The allowance for loan losses was 0.65% of net loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2006 as compared to 0.66% as of December 31, 2005. See “Results of Operations—Asset Quality and the Recapture of the Allowance for Loan Losses.”

20

Deposits. Our deposits totaled $2.5 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of 10% from $2.3 billion at December 31, 2005. Our transaction account deposits totaled $1.2 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of 12% from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2005. Our time deposits totaled $1.3 billion at March 31, 2006 an increase of 9% from $1.2 billion at December 31, 2005.

The increase in our deposits and transaction account deposits from December 31, 2005 is primarily attributable to the acquisition of Calnet. At acquisition date, Calnet deposits totaled $200.5 million, including $192.4 million of transaction account deposits, in one branch location. In January 2006, we opened our Crystal Cove banking office in Newport Coast, California, which held $18.9 million of transaction account deposits at March 31, 2006. Additionally, we have announced plans to open two additional banking offices located in Pasadena and Valencia, California during 2006.

Borrowings. Another source of funds are borrowings, primarily FHLB advances, exchange balances and junior subordinated debentures. Total borrowings amounted to $2.4 billion at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. FHLB advances totaled $1.6 billion at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. At March 31, 2006, total FHLB advances included $1.2 billion of advances with put features. Putable advances provide the FHLB of San Francisco with the option to cause us to repay these advances, prior to stated maturity. Putable advances are offered at rates that are significantly lower than other FHLB advances of similar duration or maturity and other alternative wholesale funding sources. Our putable FHLB advances have original ten-year maturities with varying put dates that take effect one to two years after issuance. At March 31, 2006, excluding net acquisition premiums, we anticipate approximately $1.4 billion of advances from the FHLB of San Francisco will mature or reprice within the next twelve months. See Item 3 below for further discussion.

Exchange balances, which represent amounts due to exchange clients at the completion of the client’s 1031 exchange transaction, totaling $637.6 million at March 31, 2006, have been used to support our asset growth as well as to reduce our need for FHLB advances. Exchange balances increased $14.3 million since December 31, 2005 primarily due to the $116.4 million in exchange balances acquired in the LAMI acquisition. Exchange balances represent an attractive funding source, with an average cost of 1.0 % during the three months of 2006. Other borrowings include federal funds purchased and totaled $50.0 million at March 31, 2006 as compared to $72.0 million at December 31, 2005.

At March 31, 2006, our junior subordinated debt issued to unconsolidated trust subsidiaries totaled $149.8 million, compared to $150.0 million at December 31, 2005.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity totaled $755.1 million at March 31, 2006, an increase of 8% from $698.1 million at December 31, 2005. We issued 2,339,237 shares valued at $39.8 million in connection with the acquisition of Calnet and 274,819 shares in connection with the acquisition of LAMI. In accordance with the LAMI acquisition agreement, an aggregate of 274,819 shares were placed in escrow and are subject to certain contingencies, which will lapse in their entirety in March 2007 or upon a change in control of the Company. See “Recent Developments.” The 274,819 shares are excluded from outstanding shares until such contingencies are satisfied. Additionally, we issued 170,315 shares of common stock, valued at $3.6 million, in connection with the release of the remaining contingent shares related to our acquisition of TIMCOR in 2005. The increase in stockholders’ equity also reflects the $13.8 million in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006, partially offset by a $1.8 million year to date increase in net unrealized losses on securities, net of taxes. In addition, stockholders’ equity increased by $1.8 million due to the value of unvested stock options, exercise of stock options and the net delivery of restricted stock awards.

We paid a cash dividend on March 1, 2006 totaling $4.3 million to our stockholders. Our book value and tangible book value per share increased from $12.36 and $5.23, respectively, at December 31, 2005 to $12.66 and $5.46, respectively, at March 31, 2006. 

Results of Operations

General. Our results of operations are primarily derived from the results of two of our wholly owned subsidiaries, the Bank and TIMCOR, which was acquired on February 17, 2005, and NAEC, which was acquired on May 24, 2005. For periods after March 3, 2006, our results include the operations of Calnet. We acquired LAMI on March 30, 2006. Our results of operations are driven by our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of loans receivable, securities and other short-term investments, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and borrowings. Our results of operations are also driven, to a much smaller extent, by our generation of noninterest income, consisting of income from our banking operations which include retail banking fees, loan related fees, gains on sale of loans and other fees and noninterest income through 1031 exchange fees contributed by our exchange accommodator subsidiaries.

21

Other factors contributing to our results of operations include our gains on sales of securities and income taxes, as well as the level of our noninterest expenses, such as compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment, professional expenses and miscellaneous other operating expenses.

We reported net income of $13.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, compared to $23.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Our financial results include the effects of the acquisition of Calnet, which closed on March 3, 2006. The results of operations for periods prior to February 17, 2005 do not include the impact of the TIMCOR acquisition or the impact of the NAEC acquisition for periods prior to May 24, 2005. The decrease in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year is primarily due to the increase in general and administrative expenses and the lack of provision recapture in the current period that occurred in the prior period. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, we recorded a $8.1 million recapture of allowance for loan losses as a result of: identifying and transferring $611.6 million of single family residential loans from held-for-investment to held-for-sale; selling $101.1 million of the Bank’s 12MAT monthly adjustable, single family residential loans during the three month period; and management reducing the overall loss factor for single family residential loans. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, such a recapture was not necessary as there were no significant changes in the loan portfolio mix or loss factors. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, we reported a return on average assets and return on average tangible assets of 1.00% and 1.08%, respectively, as compared to 1.78% and 1.92% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. Our return on average equity and return on average tangible equity was 7.60% and 17.50% for the first quarter of 2006, respectively, compared to 14.41% and 34.49% for the first quarter of 2005, respectively.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income is determined by our interest rate spread (i.e., the difference between the yields earned on our interest-earning assets and the rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities) and the relative amounts of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income totaled $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $38.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Net interest margin represents net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. Our net interest margin was 3.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to 3.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Our net interest spread was 2.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to 3.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Interest Income. Total interest income amounted to $76.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $62.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005 is primarily due to an increase in interest earning assets as well as higher loan yields.

Interest income on loans totaled $70.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $55.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The higher interest income during the first quarter of 2006 reflects the increase in our average balance of loans receivable as a result of higher core loan fundings and fewer loan sales as well as higher loan yields in 2006. The average yield earned on our total loans amounted to 6.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, compared to 5.46% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in loan yields in 2006 compared to 2005 is due to the rise in interest rates over the period, which has caused related loan indices to rise.

Interest income on securities and other interest-earning assets, which consist of federal funds sold and FHLB stock, totaled $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The average yield on the securities portfolio increased to 4.41% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to 4.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The effect on interest income of the increase in the average yield earned on securities during the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same periods in the prior year was more than offset by a decrease in the average balance of such assets during the period. The securities portfolio has continued to decline as cash generated from these assets is reinvested in higher yielding loans held-for-investment.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense was $38.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $23.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The total cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased from 2.21% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, to 3.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Our cost of funds, which includes the effect of noninterest-bearing deposits, increased from 2.16% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, to

24

3.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005 is due to an increase in market rates over the period. Further, due to the timing of closing of the acquisition of Calnet, the full impact of the low-cost deposits acquired was not recognized as of March 31, 2006. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits increased to 3.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to 1.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Interest expense on borrowings, consisting of FHLB advances, exchange balances, junior subordinated debentures and other borrowings, amounted to $19.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The average rate paid on borrowings was 3.34% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to 2.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The higher average rate paid on borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005, reflects higher short and intermediate term interest rates during the current periods compared to the year-ago periods. This increase in borrowing cost was partially offset as the lower-cost exchange balances were used as an alternate funding source to the higher cost FHLB advances. Average outstanding exchange balances were $566.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $183.1 million as of March 31, 2005. The increase in average exchange balances is due to the NAEC acquisition in May 2005 and including the full impact of the TIMCOR acquisition for the entire quarter in 2006.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses. At March 31, 2006, the total loans held-for-investment portfolio increased by $270.4 million to $4.6 billion as compared to $4.3 billion at December 31, 2005. Commercial real estate, construction and land and multifamily loans held-for-investment increased $91.0 million, $65.1 million and $59.7 million from December 31, 2005 to March 31, 2006. As a result, at March 31, 2006, loan concentration levels remained consistent with those at December 31, 2005 with multifamily credit concentration levels at 68%, commercial real estate concentration levels at 15%, construction and land at 7% and single family at 9%. Though the acquisition of Calnet increased our commercial business lines of credit, the impact to the total credit concentration levels was not significant.

At March 31, 2006, there was no provision for loan losses recorded as compared to a recapture of $8.1 million of the allowance for loan losses for the three month period ended March 2005. Our asset quality review, performed during the first quarter of 2006, was based on our asset classification process of the total loan portfolio, which is incorporated into our allowance methodology evaluated on an ongoing basis. Management establishes the allowance for loan losses based on the credit quality and historical performance of our multifamily, commercial real estate, single family residential, construction, and land loan portfolios, which accounts for virtually all of the loan portfolio. Our overall asset quality remains sound, as supported by its internal risk rating process of a more seasoned multifamily, commercial real estate and single family residential loan portfolio.

The table below summarizes the activity in our allowance for loan losses for the periods shown:

	Three Months ended March 31,
	2006			2005
	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance, beginning of period	$	28,705		$	36,835
Recapture of allowance	—			(8,109		)

Amounts charged off	(6		)	(18		)
Recoveries on loans previously charged off	15			35
Balance, end of period	$	29,955		$	28,743

The allowance for loan losses is derived by analyzing the historical loss experience and asset quality within each loan portfolio segment, along with assessing qualitative environmental factors, and correlating it with the delinquency and classification status for each portfolio segment. We utilize a loan grading system with five classification categories, including assets classified as Pass, based upon credit risk characteristics which categorizes each loan asset by risk grade allowing for a more consistent review of similar loan assets. Management has also evaluated the loss exposure of classified loans, which are reviewed individually based on the evaluation of the cash flow, collateral, other sources of repayment, guarantors and any other relevant factors to determine the inherent loss potential in the credit.

25

Management considers the following qualitative environmental factors in determining the allocated loss factors when analyzing the allowance for loan losses: the levels of and trends in past due, nonaccrual and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; the trend in volume and terms of loans; the effects of changes in credit concentrations; the effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting standards, and other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; the experience, ability and depth of management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; and industry conditions.

At March 31, 2006, we had $8.0 million of nonperforming assets as compared to $8.6 million at December 31, 2005. There were no nonperforming assets acquired in the Calnet acquisition. Nonperforming assets as of March 31, 2006 are comprised of two single family residential loans totaling $4.3 million, one multifamily loan relationship totaling $771,000, two construction and land loans totaling $2.6 million, and one commercial business lines of credit and other loans totaling $372,000. Nonperforming assets were 0.14% of total assets at March 31, 2006 as compared to 0.16% at December 31, 2005. Impaired loans, which are comprised of nonperforming assets of $8.0 million and $382,000 of troubled debt restructures (“TDRs”) on accrual status, totaled $8.4 million at March 31, 2006 as compared to $9.0 million at December 31, 2005. However, based on management’s analysis, no specific reserves are warranted as of March 31, 2006 as there is sufficient collateral to secure the loan principal balances. At March 31, 2006, total TDRs were comprised of two loans, the most significant being a $308,000 commercial real estate loan.

The overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed by the Bank’s Internal Asset Review Committee on a quarterly basis and submitted to the Board of Directors for approval. The Internal Asset Review Committee’s responsibilities consist of risk management, as well as problem loan management, which include ensuring proper risk grading of all loans and analysis of specific allocations for all classified loans.

Management believes that its allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2006 was adequate. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that additions to such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, particularly as we continue to grow our loan portfolio. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our valuation allowance. These agencies may require increases to the allowance based on their judgments of the information available to them at the time of their examination.

Noninterest Income. The following table sets forth information regarding our noninterest income for the periods shown.

	Three Months ended March 31,
	2006		2005
	(Dollars in thousands)
Noninterest income:
Loan related fees	$	1,156	$	1,058
Retail banking fees	566		531
Mortgage banking fees, net	78		40
1031 exchange fees	925		374
Gain on sale of loans	207		645
Gain on sale of securities	¾		¾
Bank-owned life insurance	1,519		804
Other income	340		296
Total noninterest income	$	4,791	$	3,748

Noninterest income was $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Loan related fees includes loan prepayment fees of $952,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $740,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, noninterest income included fee income earned from 1031 exchange transactions since the close of the TIMCOR acquisition on February 17, 2005 and the NAEC acquisition on May 24, 2005. Exchange fee income was not impacted by the LAMI acquisition due to the timing of the acquisition. Fee income from 1031 exchange transactions represented 19% of noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to 10% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Gains on sale of loans totaled $207,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $645,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The gain on sale of loans primarily relates to the sale of $19.6 million of multifamily loans sold to FNMA under the Mflex program for the three months ended March 31, 2006. BOLI income increased $715,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase is primarily due to an additional $65 million in BOLI investments made in the latter half of 2005. Additionally, included in the BOLI income for the period ended March 31, 2006 is an annual dividend of approximately $400,000 related to a portion of our existing BOLI policies.

Noninterest Expenses. The following table sets forth information regarding our noninterest expenses for the periods shown.

	Three Months ended March 31,
	2006			2005
	(Dollars in thousands)
Noninterest expenses:
Compensation and benefits	$	12,247		$	6,860

Recapture of reserve for unfunded commitments	(2		)	(1,490		)
Other	3,530			2,793
Total noninterest expenses	$	22,223		$	12,817

Our noninterest expenses totaled $22.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $12.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, an increase of $9.4 million. The increase in noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was primarily due to a $5.4 million increase in compensation and benefits, and a $1.3 million increase in professional and consulting expenses. Additionally, in 2005, the Company recorded a $1.5 million recapture of reserve for unfunded commitments, based upon the analysis of the allowance at that time; no such recapture was recorded during the first quarter of 2006. The increase in compensation and benefits expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 as compared with the same period in the prior year is due to $2.1 million in higher compensation expenses related to the additional operations from the 2005 acquisitions of TIMCOR and NAEC, $747,000 related to the Commercial Banking Division which we expanded in July 2005, $830,000 in severance and related compensation expense that resulted from the initial impact of our previously announced cost savings and expense reduction plan and overall increases in compensation and benefits expense due to growth in our banking operations. Total full time equivalent employees increased to 582 at March 31, 2006 from 442 at March 31, 2005. Professional and consulting expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily as a result of our litigation defense costs related to the Comerica litigation. See Part II Item I — Legal Proceedings.

Income Taxes. We recognized $6.9 million of income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Our effective tax rate was 33.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to 38.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.The reduction of our effective tax rate during the periods ended March 31, 2006 compared to the year ago periods reflects the realization of larger amounts of low income housing and other tax credits, increases in bank-owned life insurance income, the anticipation of additional tax credits to be received or realized before the end of 2006 and the origination of income property loans in enterprise zones that generate certain state tax benefits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity. The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that we have the continuing ability to maintain cash flows that are adequate to fund our operations and meet our debt obligations and other commitments on a timely and cost-effective basis. Our liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of funds management. Liquid assets are generally invested in short-term investments such as federal funds sold. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, various forms of both short-and long-term borrowings provide an additional source of funds.

Liquidity management at the Bank focuses on its ability to generate sufficient cash to meet the funding needs of current loan demand, deposit withdrawals, principal and interest payments with respect to outstanding borrowings and to pay

27

operating expenses. It is the Bank’s policy to maintain greater liquidity than regulatory requirements in order to be in a position to fund loan originations and investments. The Bank monitors its liquidity in accordance with guidelines established by its Board of Directors and applicable regulatory requirements. The Bank’s need for liquidity is affected by its loan activity, net changes in deposit levels and the scheduled maturities of its borrowings. Liquidity demand resulting from net reductions in deposits is usually caused by factors over which the Bank has limited control. The principal sources of the Bank’s liquidity consist of deposits, loan interest and principal payments and prepayments, its ability to sell assets at market prices and its ability to pledge its unencumbered assets as collateral for borrowings, advances from the FHLB of San Francisco and reverse repurchase agreements. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had $964.6 million in available FHLB borrowing capacity. Furthermore, we have historically been able to sell loans in excess of their carrying values during varying interest rate cycles. Consequently, based on our past experience, management believes that the Bank’s loans can generally be sold for more than their carrying values. At March 31, 2006, the Bank had outstanding commitments (including undisbursed loan principal balances) to originate loans of $365.0 million. Certificates of deposit which are scheduled to mature within one year totaled $1.2 billion, excluding purchase accounting adjustments, at March 31, 2006, and Bank borrowings that are scheduled to mature within the same period amounted to $1.5 billion, excluding purchase accounting adjustments, at such date. Management believes the Bank has sufficient liquidity to support its operations.

Liquidity management at the holding company level focuses on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to fund its operating expenses and debt service requirements. At March 31, 2006, our annual interest payments with respect to our outstanding junior subordinated debentures amounted to $11.6 million in the aggregate, based on the applicable interest rate at that date. Such interest payments are currently expected to be funded primarily with cash and liquid investments at the Company, which amounted to $24.0 million at March 31, 2006, including $1.4 million of an unencumbered mortgage-backed security. In addition, the Company also has the ability to receive dividends from the Bank. The availability of dividends from the Bank is limited by various statutes and regulations. It is possible, depending upon the financial condition of the Bank, and other factors, that the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) could assert that payment of dividends or other payments by the Bank are an unsafe or unsound practice. At March 31, 2006, the Bank could dividend up to $137.2 million to us without having to file an application with the OTS, provided the OTS received prior notice of such distribution under applicable OTS regulations.  The availability of dividends from the Bank is limited by various statutes and regulations.  The Bank must file notice with the OTS at least 30 days before the proposed payment of a dividend or payment of a proposed capital distribution because it is the subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company.  The Bank must obtain prior approval from the Office of Thrift Supervision if it fails to meet to meet certain regulatory conditions, if, after giving effect to the proposed distribution, the Bank’s capital distributions in a calendar year would exceed its year-to-date net income plus retained net income for the preceding two years or the Bank would not be at least “adequately capitalized” or if the distribution would violate a statute, regulation, regulatory agreement or a regulatory condition to which the Bank is subject.

The Company has issued $92.5 million of trust preferred securities through its nine unconsolidated trust subsidiaries and acquired $51.0 million of trust preferred securities that Hawthorne had previously issued. In connection with the issuance or acquisition of these trust preferred securities, the Company has committed to irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the following payments or distributions with respect to the trust preferred securities to the holders thereof to the extent that the Company’s unconsolidated trust subsidiaries have not made such payments or distributions: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions, (ii) the redemption price, and (iii) upon a dissolution or termination of a trust, the lesser of the liquidation amount and all accrued and unpaid distributions and the amount of the assets of the trust remaining available for distribution, in each case to the extent the Company’s trust subsidiaries have funds available. The proceeds received in connection with the issuance of such trust preferred securities were utilized by such trusts to purchase an aggregate of $148.0 million of junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company. As of March 31, 2006, the Company’s outstanding junior subordinated debentures included an aggregate of $138.7 million of floating rate debentures and $9.3 million of fixed rate debentures.

Capital Resources. The following table reflects the Bank’s actual levels of regulatory capital as of March 31, 2006 and the applicable minimum regulatory capital requirements as well as the regulatory capital requirements that apply to be deemed “well capitalized” pursuant to the OTS’ prompt corrective action requirements.

	Actual				For capital adequacy purposes				To be well capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary market risk continues to be market interest rate volatility and its potential impact on net interest income and net interest margin resulting from changes in interest rates. We monitor our interest rate risk on at least a quarterly basis. Our operations do not subject us to foreign exchange or commodity price risk and we do not own any trading assets. Our real estate loan portfolio is concentrated primarily within California making us subject to the risk associated with the local economy. For a complete discussion of our asset and liability management process and our interest rate sensitivity, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

The Bank uses a dynamic, internally generated, interest sensitivity analysis that incorporates detailed information on the Bank’s loans, investments, deposits and borrowings into an asset/liability management model designed for financial institutions. This analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in the Bank’s projected net interest income (taking into account the Bank’s budget, index lags, rate floors, lifetime and periodic caps, scheduled and unscheduled repayment of principal, redirection of cash flows and lags of deposit rates) in the event of assumed changes in interest rates. This analysis assesses the effect on projected net interest income in the event of a parallel increase or decrease in interest rates, assuming such increase/decrease occurs ratably over the next twelve months and remains constant over the subsequent twelve months. Based on the sensitivity analysis performed by the Bank, the projected net interest income is higher in flat and declining interest rate scenarios than its historical net interest income due to the projected growth in the Bank’s balance sheet. A gradual parallel increase in interest rates of 200 basis points during the twelve months following March 31, 2006 would decrease the projected higher net interest income by 0.1%, while a parallel decline in interest rates of 200 basis points during the twelve months following March 31, 2006 would increase the projected higher net interest income by 4.6%. An increase in interest rates is currently projected to have relatively small negative impact on the Bank’s net interest income. This is in part due to interest-bearing liabilities repricing faster than interest-earning assets. Based on the sensitivity analysis performed by the Bank at December 31, 2005, a gradual parallel increase in interest rates of 200 basis points during the twelve months following December 31, 2005 would have increased projected higher net interest income by 1.0%. A parallel decline in interest rates of 200 basis points during the twelve months following December 31, 2005 would increase projected net interest income by 3.2%.

Management believes that all of the assumptions used in the foregoing analysis to evaluate the vulnerability of its projected net interest income to changes in interest rates approximate actual experiences and considers them to be reasonable. However, the interest rate sensitivity of the Bank’s assets and liabilities and the estimated effects of changes in interest rates on the Bank’s projected net interest income as indicated above could vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience differs from the projections on which they are based.

Though we rely on a net interest income sensitivity/simulation model to manage our interest rate risk, we do monitor the interest rate sensitivity gap of the Bank’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. At March 31, 2006, the Bank’s interest-earning assets, which mature or reprice within one year, exceeded its interest-bearing liabilities with similar characteristics by $503.0 million, or 8.86% of total assets.

(1)Comprised of cash and due from banks and federal funds sold.

(2)Comprised of agency mortgage-backed securities which are classified as available-for-sale as adjusted to take into account estimated prepayments and FHLB stock.

(3)Includes outstanding principal balance of loans held-for-sale. Adjustable-rate loans are included in the period in which interest rates are next scheduled to adjust rather than in the period in which they are due, and fixed-rate loans are included in the periods in which they are scheduled to be repaid, based on scheduled amortization, in each case as adjusted to take into account estimated prepayments.

(4)Includes loan purchase premiums and discounts, net deferred loan fees and costs, the allowance for loan losses, goodwill, bank-owned life insurance, affordable housing investments, accrued interest receivable and other assets.

30

(5)Includes remaining purchase premium of $581,000.

(6)Includes exchange balances held at the Bank by TIMCOR, NAEC and LAMI in non-interest-bearing demand and money market deposit accounts. Included in the money market balances are $359.8 million of money market checking and $216.5 million of money market savings account balances. Exchange deposits held at the Bank by TIMCOR, NAEC and LAMI are viewed as being a stable source of funds with a longer duration than other core money market accounts. In addition, as Commercial Capital Bancorp directs these balances to the Bank, the deposits are viewed as less interest sensitive. As a result, the following allocation of principal balances is assumed: 10% during the first twelve months, 40% during 1-3 years and 50% during 3-5 years.

(7)Although the Bank’s interest-bearing demand deposit accounts are subject to immediate potential repricing, management considers a certain amount of such accounts to be core deposits having longer effective durations and less interest rate sensitivity. The table above assumes the following allocation of principal balances for interest-bearing demand deposits: 10% during the first twelve months, 40% during 1-3 years and 50% during 3-5 years.

(8)Although the Bank’s money market accounts and savings accounts are subject to immediate potential repricing, management considers a certain amount of such accounts to be core deposits having longer effective durations and less interest rate sensitivity. The table above assumes the following allocation of principal balances for money market checking, money market savings accounts and savings accounts: 50% during the first twelve months, 35% during 1-3 years and 15% during 3-5 years.

(9)Includes remaining net purchase premiums of $595,000.

(10)At March 31, 2006, the Bank had $1.2 billion of putable FHLB advances. The Bank’s putable FHLB advances have original ten-year maturities with varying put dates that take effect one to two years after issuance. At March 31, 2006, $1.1 billion of the putable FHLB advances either currently have, or will have in the future, quarterly put dates at the option of the FHLB and $25.0 million of putable FHLB advances have a one time put date at the option of the FHLB scheduled in 2007. The Bank allocates these putable FHLB advances based on anticipated put or maturity dates taking into consideration the current interest rate environment. As such, $1.1 billion are reflected in the above table in accordance with the respective first put dates while $27.0 million of putable advances are reflected at the scheduled maturity date. The Bank’s remaining fixed-rate advances are included in the periods in which they are scheduled to mature. At March 31, 2006 the following table provides a quarterly summary of the schedule or anticipated maturities or repricing of the Bank’s FHLB advances, excluding $128,000 of net acquisition premiums, over the next twelve months and weighted average rates.

(11)Includes accrued interest payable and other liabilities.

(12)If the principal balance for all interest-bearing demand deposit, money market checking, money market savings, exchange balance deposits (both demand deposits and money market) and savings accounts were allocated entirely to the first twelve months, the Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities which mature or reprice within one year would have exceeded its interest-earning assets with similar characteristics by $574.8 million, or 10.1% of total assets.

At March 31, 2006, of the Bank’s $4.6 billion total loan portfolio, including loans held-for-sale, 98% or $4.6 billion, had interest rates which adjust within a five year period, and 79% or $3.6 billion, had interest rates which adjust within a one-year period, based on scheduled amortization of the loan portfolio, adjusted for estimated prepayments.

31

In addition to the Bank’s interest sensitive assets and liabilities shown in the table above, the Company has also issued approximately $148.0 million of junior subordinated debentures through its unconsolidated trust subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2006, approximately $123.2 million is expected to reprice during the next twelve months, $15.5 million within the next 3-5 years and $9.3 million over 5 years.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer along with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) Rule 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer along with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company’s controls and other procedures which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On July 29, 2005, Comerica Bank, or Comerica, a Michigan banking corporation, filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Francisco, against CCBI, the Bank, and twenty-four (24) individuals who were formerly employees of Comerica (the “Comerica Employee Defendants”). The complaint alleges, among other things, that CCBI, the Bank and the Comerica Employee Defendants conspired to disrupt Comerica’s business through the misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential employee and customer information to solicit Comerica’s customers, as well as the “raiding” of twenty-three (23) employees from Comerica’s Financial Services Division.

On August 1, 2005, a temporary restraining order, or TRO, was imposed against all of the named defendants, which TRO prohibited, among other things, the use by the defendants of Comerica’s trade secrets and confidential information. On November 7, 2005, the court granted a preliminary injunction in favor of Comerica. The preliminary injunction prohibited CCBI, the Bank and the Comerica Employee Defendants from using, destroying, concealing and/or disclosing any of Comerica Bank’s confidential proprietary or trade secret information, and from soliciting certain of Comerica’s customers, vendors and employees, during the period Comerica’s lawsuit is pending. The preliminary injunction ordered CCBI, the Bank, and the Comerica Employee Defendants to return any proprietary documents and information that the Comerica Employee Defendants are alleged to have taken when they left their employ with Comerica. Thereafter, CCBI, the Bank and the Comerica Employee Defendants filed a Notice of Appeal and, subsequently, a motion with the Superior Court to clarify the scope of the preliminary injunction. On December 30, 2005, the court issued a revised preliminary injunction and increased the bond required to be posted by Comerica during the pendency of the litigation.

Comerica is seeking damages in an amount to be proven at trial as well as punitive and exemplary damages against CCBI, the Bank and the Comerica Employee Defendants. At a status conference held on March 30, 2006, the court scheduled the case for trial on April 23, 2007. CCBI and the Bank have asserted that the Comerica litigation is without merit and that CCBI and the Bank will vigorously defend the litigation. Many of the Comerica Employee Defendants have filed cross-claims against Comerica.

The Company is involved in a variety of other litigation matters in the ordinary course of business and anticipates that it will become involved in new litigation matters from time to time in the future. Except with respect to the Comerica litigation referred to above, as to which CCBI and the Bank are not in a position to express an opinion, based on its current assessment of outstanding litigation matters, either individually or in the aggregate, the Company does not presently believe that they are likely to have a material adverse impact on Company’s financial condition, results of operation, cash flows or prospects. However, the Company will incur legal and related costs concerning

32

litigation and may, from time to time, determine to settle some or all of the cases, regardless of the Company’s assessment of its legal position. The amount of legal defense costs and settlements in any period will depend on many factors, including the status of cases, the number of cases that are in trial or about to be brought to trial, and the opposing parties’ aggressiveness in pursuing their cases and their perception of their legal position.
