Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Luther Burbank Corporation (the ‘‘Company’’), a California corporation headquartered in Santa Rosa, is the bank holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary, Luther Burbank Savings (the "Bank"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Burbank Investor Services. The Company also owns Burbank Financial Inc., a real estate investment company that provides limited loan administrative support to the Bank, and all the common interests in Luther Burbank Statutory Trusts I and II, entities created to issue trust preferred securities. The Bank conducts its business from its headquarters in Gardena, CA. It has ten full service branches in California located in Sonoma, Marin, Santa Clara, and Los Angeles Counties and one full service branch in Washington located in King County. Additionally, there are several loan production offices located throughout California, as well as a loan production office in Clackamas County, Oregon. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting standards and prevailing practices within the banking industry and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company currently has two unconsolidated subsidiaries in the form of wholly-owned statutory business trusts, which were formed to issue junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures. See Note 9, “Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures,” for additional information regarding these trusts. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and deposits with other financial institutions with maturities of less than three months. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions. Restricted Cash Balances The Company may include cash collateral in connection with interest rate swaps in restricted cash within the consolidated statements of financial condition. At December 31, 2021 the Company had no cash posted as collateral. As of December 31, 2020, the Company posted $8.9 million, in cash collateral in connection with its interest rate swaps. Investment Securities The Company classifies its investment securities into three categories, available for sale, held to maturity and equity, at the time of purchase. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes. Investment securities held to maturity are measured at amortized cost, based on the Company’s positive intent and ability to hold such securities to maturity. Equity securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other noninterest income within the consolidated statements of income. Interest income includes amortization/accretion of purchase premiums/discounts. Premiums and discounts are amortized, or accreted, over the life of the related investment security, or the earliest call date with respect to premiums on callable securities, as an adjustment to interest income using a method that approximates the interest method. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method. An investment security is impaired when its carrying value is greater than its fair value. Investment securities that are impaired are evaluated on at least a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation to determine whether such a decline in their fair value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term ‘‘other than temporary’’ is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent, but indicates that the prospect for a near-term recovery of value is not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, and management does not intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit exposure is recognized as a charge to earnings, with the balance recognized as a charge to other comprehensive (loss) income. If management intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its forecasted cost, the entire impairment loss is recognized as a charge to earnings. Loans Receivable Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan origination fees and costs and the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Premiums or discounts to acquire loans are amortized over the life of the loan using a method that approximates the interest method. The Company charges fees for originating loans. These fees, net of certain related direct loan origination costs, are deferred. The net deferred fees or costs on loans held for investment are recognized as an adjustment of the loan’s yield over the contractual life of the loan using the interest method. The Company ceases to amortize deferred fees or costs on loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued. Other loan fees and charges representing service costs are reported in income when collected or earned. Loans Held for Sale Mortgage loans held for sale are sold with servicing rights released or retained. Realized gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are accounted for under the specific identification method and based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold servicing retained is reduced by the amount allocated to the servicing right. Concentration of Credit Risk The majority of our customers are individuals and businesses located and doing business in the state of California, with approximately half our collateral located in Los Angeles and Orange counties. The Company's exposure to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in the economy of California, and specifically, Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses represents the estimated probable incurred credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. 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, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower circumstances, 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 Company performs periodic and systematic detailed reviews of its loan portfolio to assess the overall collectability of its loans. The Company’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists of the combined total of two key components. The first component covers loans that are impaired. All loans are evaluated for impairment on a recurring basis. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, including principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans that are reported as troubled debt restructures (“TDRs”) are considered impaired. A restructuring of a debt constitutes a TDR if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. Restructured workout loans typically present an elevated level of credit risk as the borrowers are not able to perform according to the original contractual terms. Impaired loans and TDRs that are solely dependent on the operation or liquidation of collateral for repayment are measured for impairment at the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. Impaired loans, including TDRs, that are not considered collateral dependent, are measured based on the present value of loan payments expected to be received discounted at the loans’ original effective contractual interest rate. If the recorded investment in the impaired loans exceeds the value of funds to be received, an allowance is established as a component of the total allowance for loan losses unless the loans are solely dependent on the collateral for repayment, in which case the amount that exceeds the fair value of the collateral is charged off. The second element of the allowance covers probable incurred losses inherent in performing loans that have yet to be specifically identified for impairment. This component of the allowance is estimated by applying reserve factors based on average historical loss experience for the previous nine Multifamily residential and commercial real estate loans - These loans typically involve greater principal amounts than other types of loans, and repayment depends upon income generated, or expected to be generated, by the property securing the loan in amounts sufficient to cover operating expenses and debt service, which may be adversely affected by changes in the economy or local market conditions. Multifamily residential and commercial real estate loans also expose a lender to significant credit risk because the collateral securing these loans typically cannot be sold as easily as single family residential real estate. In addition, some commercial real estate loans are not fully amortizing and contain large balloon payments upon maturity. Such balloon payments may require the borrower to either sell or refinance the underlying property in order to comply with the terms of the loan agreement, which may increase the risk of default or non-payment. Single family residential real estate loans - The degree of risk in single family residential real estate lending depends primarily on the loan amount in relation to collateral value, the interest rate, and the borrower’s ability to repay in an orderly fashion. These loans generally possess a lower inherent risk of loss than other real estate portfolio segments. Economic trends determined by unemployment rates and other key economic indicators are closely correlated to the credit quality of these loans. Weak economic trends indicate that the borrowers’ capacity to repay their obligations may be deteriorating. Construction and land loans - This type of lending generally possess a higher inherent risk of loss than other real estate portfolio segments. A major risk arises from the necessity to complete projects within specified costs and timelines. Trends in the construction industry significantly impact the credit quality of these loans, as demand drives construction activity. In addition, trends in real estate values significantly impact the credit quality of these loans, as property values determine the economic viability of construction projects. The total allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period operating results, and decreased by reversals of loan loss provisions as well as loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. Losses incurred upon the initial acquisition of real estate owned through foreclosure are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Accrued Interest Receivable on Loans Interest receivable is only accrued if deemed collectible. It is the Company’s policy to place a loan on non-accrual status in the event that the borrower is 90 days or more delinquent (unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection), or earlier if the timely collection of contractual payments appears doubtful. At the time a loan is placed on non-accrual, accrued interest is reversed out of interest income. Cash payments subsequently received on non-accrual loans are recognized as income only where the future collection of the remaining principal is considered by management to be probable. Loans are restored to accrual status only when the loan is less than 90 days delinquent and not in foreclosure, and the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments of principal and interest. Servicing Rights When mortgage loans are sold with servicing retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Under the fair value measurement method, the Company measures servicing rights at fair value at each reporting date and reports changes in the fair value of servicing assets in earnings in the period in which the changes occur, and such changes are included with other income on the consolidated statements of income. The fair values of servicing rights are calculated using model assumptions including factors such as prepayment rates, market rates and other model cash flow assumptions. Absent other changes, an increase (decrease) to the estimated life of serviced loans would generally increase (decrease) the fair value of servicing rights. The fair value of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuation as a result of changes in estimates and when actual factors such as prepayment speeds, default rates, and losses differ from model assumptions. Servicing fee income, which is reported on the consolidated statements of income as a component of other income, is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are typically based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal and are recorded as income when earned. Fair value adjustments are netted against loan servicing fee income. Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. Real Estate Owned ("REO") Real estate acquired as a result of loan foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. Physical possession of a residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan occurs when legal title is obtained upon completion of foreclosure or when the borrower conveys all interest in the property to satisfy the loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Fair value is typically based on a real estate appraisal. REO is subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition related to the development of REO are capitalized while operating costs are charged to expense. Gains or losses realized and expenses incurred in connection with the disposition of foreclosed real estate are charged to noninterest income within the consolidated statements of income. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Land is carried at cost. The Company’s policy is to depreciate buildings, furniture and equipment on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the various assets and to amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the asset life or lease term as follows: Leasehold improvements Lesser of term of lease or life of improvement Furniture and equipment 2 to 7 years Building 39 years The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets on an ongoing basis. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock As a member of the FHLB, the Bank is required to own capital stock in an amount specified by the level of FHLB borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security and periodically evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recovery of par value. Cash dividends are reported as noninterest income on an accrual basis. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Bank owned 234,108 and 251,217 shares of $100 par value FHLB stock, respectively. Goodwill Goodwill arises from business combinations and is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill determined to have an indefinite useful life is not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount of the excess and the carrying value of the goodwill is reduced accordingly. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the balance sheet. Based on an evaluation performed as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, management determined that the implied fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying value and no impairments were recognized. Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”) Bank-owned life insurance is initially recorded at cost. Subsequently, BOLI is carried at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or amounts due that are probable at settlement. Increases in contract value are recorded as noninterest income and insurance proceeds received are recorded as a reduction of the contract value. Reserve for Loan Commitments The Company maintains a reserve within other liabilities associated with commitments to fund undisbursed loan commitments on outstanding loans. This reserve is determined based upon the historical loss experience of similar loans held by the Company at each period end. Any changes in this reserve amount are recognized through earnings as a component of noninterest expense. Marketing Marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Derivatives At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company designates the derivative as one of three types based on the Company’s intentions and belief as to the likely effectiveness as a hedge. These three types are (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (‘‘fair value hedge’’), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (‘‘cash flow hedge’’), or (3) an instrument with no hedging designation (‘‘stand-alone derivative’’). For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item, are recognized in earnings as fair values change. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For both types of hedges, changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not highly effective in hedging the changes in fair value or expected cash flows of the hedged item are recognized immediately in current earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in earnings, as noninterest income. Net cash settlements on derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in interest income or interest expense, based on the item being hedged. Net cash settlements on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in noninterest income. Cash flows on hedges are classified in the cash flow statement the same as the cash flows of the items being hedged. The Company formally documents the relationship between derivatives and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge transactions at the inception of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes linking fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminates, a hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, a hedged firm commitment is no longer firm, or treatment of the derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended. When hedge accounting is discontinued, subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded as noninterest income. When a fair value hedge is discontinued, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and the existing basis adjustment is amortized or accreted over the remaining life of the asset or liability. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transactions are still expected to occur, gains or losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income are amortized into earnings over the same periods which the hedged transactions will affect earnings. 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 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 these estimates. Income Taxes Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the reported amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company uses a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting, and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is ‘‘more likely than not’’ that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the ‘‘more likely than not’’ test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to income tax matters in tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized no tax related interest or penalties. Share-Based Compensation The Company has issued awards of equity instruments, such as restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), to employees and certain nonemployee directors. Compensation expense related to restricted stock is based on the fair value of the underlying stock on the award date and is amortized over the service period, defined as the vesting period, using the straight-line method. The vesting period is generally three years for employees and one year for nonemployee directors. Compensation expense is reduced for actual forfeitures as they occur. Unvested RSAs and RSUs participate with common stock in any dividends declared, but are paid only on the shares which ultimately vest. Such dividends are accrued when declared and paid at the time of vesting. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The only item of other comprehensive income (loss) for the Company are unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as available for sale, net of tax. Reclassification adjustments resulting from gains or losses on investment securities available for sale that have been realized and included in net income of the current period that also had been included in other comprehensive income as unrealized holding gains or losses in the period in which they arose have been excluded from comprehensive income (loss) of the current period to avoid double counting. Earnings Per Share ("EPS") Basic earnings per common share represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Basic EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. In determining the weighted average number of shares outstanding, vested restricted stock units are included. Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding including common stock that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for the effect of dilutive potential common shares, such as unvested restricted stock awards and units, calculated using the treasury stock method. (Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts) Years Ended December 31, 2021 2020 Net income $ 87,753 $ 39,912 Weighted average basic common shares outstanding 51,582,890 53,000,150 Add: Dilutive effects of assumed vesting of restricted stock 186,208 146,148 Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding 51,769,098 53,146,298 Income per common share: Basic EPS $ 1.70 $ 0.75 Diluted EPS $ 1.70 $ 0.75 Anti-dilutive shares not included in calculation of diluted earnings per share 8,084 10,242 Related Party Transactions In the normal course of business, the Company may accept deposits from officers, directors and other related parties. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were $26.8 million and $15.2 million, respectively, of such deposits. The Company does not permit loans to officers, directors or other related parties, with the exception of overdraft protection in limited circumstances. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no such overdraft loans outstanding. Business Segments While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Reclassifications Certain prior balances in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity. COVID-19 Beginning in early 2020 and continuing through December 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a disruption to almost every aspect of the economy. As a result, in March 2020, the Company implemented a lending modification initiative to support our customers financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and unable to make their scheduled loan payments. The program provided borrowers the opportunity to modify their existing real estate loans by temporarily deferring payments for a specified period of time. Modified loans under this program were generally downgraded from a Pass risk rating to a Watch risk rating at the time of their respective modification. Subsequent to the modification period, loan grades were adjusted, as necessary, in connection with the Company's proactive reassessment of loans impacted by the pandemic. Loan risk ratings are an integral part of the quantitative calculation of our allowance for loan losses. Further, in early 2020, we established a qualitative loan loss reserve in connection with the uncertainty related to the pandemic. This supplemental reserve has been slowly reduced as the impact of the pandemic on our loan portfolio has become less uncertain. Qualitative adjustments to our allowance specific to COVID-19 were $2.5 million and $8.4 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Management intends to closely monitor the level of this reserve and make any necessary adjustments as conditions related to the pandemic change. All of the loans modified for pandemic related payment deferral in 2020 and 2021 had returned to scheduled monthly payments or paid off in full by June 2021. Additionally, total criticized loans have declined to $16.7 million at December 31, 2021, as compared to $57.0 million at December 31, 2020. The decline in criticized loans from the prior year end was generally attributable to the continued performance of our loans that were initially impacted by the pandemic. During the years ended December 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred no loan losses for pandemic impacted loans. The Company's exposure to nonresidential commercial real estate remains limited, totaling $187.1 million, or 3.0% of our loan portfolio, at December 31, 2021. Adoption of New Financial Accounting Standards FASB ASU 2016-02 In February 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance that requires lessees recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date (1) a lease liability, which is the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.

There were no sales or transfers of available for sale investment securities and no realized gains or losses on these securities for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The following tables summarize the gross unrealized losses and fair value of available for sale debt securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position: December 31, 2021 Less than 12 Months 12 Months or More Total (Dollars in thousands) Fair Value Unrealized Losses Fair Value Unrealized Losses Fair Value Unrealized Losses Government and Government Sponsored Entities: Residential MBS and CMOs $ 118,803 $ (1,864) $ 247 $ (3) $ 119,050 $ (1,867) Commercial MBS and CMOs 157,031 (2,632) 10,608 (14) 167,639 (2,646) Other ABS 15,253 (150) — — 15,253 (150) Total available for sale debt securities $ 291,087 $ (4,646) $ 10,855 $ (17) $ 301,942 $ (4,663) At December 31, 2021, the Company held 88 residential MBS and CMOs of which 14 were in a loss position and four had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The Company held 54 commercial MBS and CMOs of which 20 were in a loss position and two had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The Company held three other ABS of which two were in a loss position and none had been in a loss position for twelve months or more.

The Company held 46 commercial MBS and CMOs of which ten were in a loss position and six had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The Company held three agency bonds of which two were in a loss position and one had been in a loss position for twelve months or more. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments were caused by interest rate changes. In addition, the contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or agencies sponsored by the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at a price less than amortized cost. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates but not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2021 and 2020. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer in an amount greater than 10% of stockholders' equity, other than the U.S. government and its agencies. Held to Maturity The following table summarizes the amortized cost and estimated fair value of held to maturity investment securities as of the dates indicated: (Dollars in thousands) Amortized Cost Gross Unrecognized Gains Gross Unrecognized Losses Estimated Fair Value As of December 31, 2021: Government Sponsored Entities: Residential MBS $ 3,761 $ 189 $ — $ 3,950 Other investments 68 — — 68 Total held to maturity investment securities $ 3,829 $ 189 $ — $ 4,018 As of December 31, 2020: Government Sponsored Entities: Residential MBS $ 7,391 $ 403 $ — $ 7,794 Other investments 76 — — 76 Total held to maturity investment securities $ 7,467 $ 403 $ — $ 7,870 The following table summarizes the scheduled maturities of available for sale and held to maturity investment securities as of December 31, 2021: December 31, 2021 (Dollars in thousands) Amortized Cost Fair Value Available for sale debt securities Less than one year $ — $ — One to five years — — Five to ten years 7,587 7,715 Beyond ten years 3,000 3,116 MBS, CMOs and other ABS 636,606 636,486 Total available for sale debt securities $ 647,193 $ 647,317 Held to maturity investments securities Beyond ten years $ 68 $ 68 MBS 3,761 3,950 Total held to maturity debt securities $ 3,829 $ 4,018 The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities are shown by contractual maturity. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities if borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. As such, mortgage backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and other asset backed securities are not included in the maturity categories above and instead are shown separately. No securities were pledged as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. Equity Securities Equity securities consist of investments in a qualified community reinvestment fund. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the fair value of equity securities totaled $11.7 million and $12.0 million, respectively. Changes in fair value are recognized in other noninterest income and totaled $(344) thousand and $255 thousand during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. There were no sales of equity securities during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. |

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company purchased a pool of performing, fixed rate single family residential loans. The pool had an aggregate principal balance of $287.8 million and contained loans with a weighted average interest rate and maturity of 2.31% and 26.4 years, respectively.

During these internal reviews, management monitors and analyzes the financial condition of borrowers and guarantors, as well as the financial performance and/or other characteristics of loan collateral. These credit quality indicators are used to assign a risk rating to each individual loan. The risk ratings can be grouped into six major categories, defined as follows: Pass assets are those which are performing according to contract and have no existing or known weaknesses deserving of management’s close attention. The basic underwriting criteria used to approve the loans are still valid, and all payments have essentially been made as planned. Watch assets are expected to have an event occurring in the near future that will lead to a change in risk rating with the change being either favorable or unfavorable. These assets require heightened monitoring of the event by management. Special mention assets have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Substandard assets are inadequately protected by the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged. These assets have well-defined weaknesses: the primary source of repayment is gone or severely impaired (i.e., bankruptcy or loss of employment) and/or there has been a deterioration in collateral value. In addition, there is the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss, either directly or indirectly (i.e., the cost of monitoring), if the deficiencies are not corrected. A deterioration in collateral value alone does not mandate that an asset be adversely classified if such factor does not indicate that the primary source of repayment is in jeopardy. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable based on current facts, conditions and values. Loss assets are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value; but rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off a basically worthless asset (or portion thereof) even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. The following table summarizes the loan portfolio allocated by management’s internal risk ratings at December 31, 2021 and 2020. The decrease in Watch, Special Mention and Substandard risk rated loans during the year ended December 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to the diminishing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the performance of loans. As of December 31, 2021, all loans modified under the Company's payment deferral program implemented in response to the pandemic had returned to scheduled payments or paid off in full.

The Company does not have commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers with loans whose terms have been modified in TDRs. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had no new TDRs. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company modified the terms of loans that qualified as TDRs. The following table provides detail of these modifications: (Dollars in thousands) Number of Contracts Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment For the Year Ended December 31, 2020: Troubled debt restructurings: Single family residential 2 $ 2,672 $ 2,672 Terms of the two loans modified as TDRs during the year ended December 31, 2020 above included suspension of loan payments for six months and a similar extension of the loan term. Prior to modification, both loans were classified as non-accrual and impaired. The TDRs above resulted in no increase to the allowance for loan losses and no charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2021 or 2020, primarily due to collateral support provided by the secondary source of repayment. The Company had no troubled debt restructurings with a subsequent payment default within twelve months following the modification during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. |

MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS | MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and conducting foreclosure proceedings. Loan servicing income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes servicing fees from investors and certain charges collected from borrowers. Mortgage loans serviced for others are not reported as assets. The principal balances of these loans are as follows: December 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Mortgage loans serviced for: Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") $ 127,431 $ 216,431 Other financial institutions 58,298 103,325 Total mortgage loans serviced for others $ 185,729 $ 319,756 Custodial account balances maintained in connection with serviced loans totaled $5.0 million and $10.9 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company measures servicing rights at fair value at each reporting date and reports changes in the fair value of servicing assets in earnings in the period in which the changes occur. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES | JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES The Company formed two wholly-owned trust companies (the ‘‘Trusts’’) which issued guaranteed preferred beneficial interests (the "Trust Securities") in the Company’s junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (the "Notes"). The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Trusts and therefore, the Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements, but rather the junior subordinated debentures are shown as a liability. The Company’s investment in the common securities of the Trusts, totaling $1.9 million, is included in other assets in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The sole asset of the Trusts are the Notes that they hold. The Trusts have invested the proceeds of such Trust Securities in the Notes. Each of the Notes has an interest rate equal to the corresponding Trust Securities distribution rate. The Company has the right to defer payment of interest on the Notes at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding five years provided that no extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the relevant Notes. During any such extension period, distributions on the Trust Securities will also be deferred, and the Company’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock will be restricted. The Company has entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Securities; (ii) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Securities called for redemption by the Trusts; and (iii) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Trusts. The Trust Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the Notes, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the Notes purchased by the Trusts, in whole or in part, on or after the redemption date. As specified in the indenture, if the Notes are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize all benefits related to these deductible differences as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. There were no unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Until July 1, 1996, the Bank was allowed a special bad debt deduction based on a percentage of federal taxable income or on specified experience formulas in arriving at federal taxable income. For reserves established in taxable years beginning prior to December 31, 1987, a deferred tax liability was not required to be accrued but has been included as a restriction on retained earnings because such amounts may require the recognition of a tax liability if, in the future, (1) the Bank’s retained earnings represented by these reserves is used for purposes other than to absorb losses from bad debts, including dividends or distributions in liquidation or (2) there is a change in the federal tax law. The cumulative amount of these untaxed reserves was approximately $3.1 million at both December 31, 2021 and 2020. Retained earnings at both December 31, 2021 and 2020 included approximately $930 thousand representing the tax effect of such cumulative bad debt deductions for which no deferred income taxes have been provided. In the event that these reserves are subject to realization, the tax on these reserves will be assessed and paid at the entity level. Management has determined that this portion of retained earnings will not be used in a manner that will create an income tax liability. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as various other state income taxes. The Company is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2017 for California tax filings and 2018 for federal and most other state tax filings. |

REGULATORY MATTERS | REGULATORY MATTERS The Company is a registered bank holding company and is subject to regulation, examination, and supervision by the FRB. The Bank is subject to regulation, examination, and supervision by the FDIC and the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation ("DFPI"). The final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) became effective for the Holding Company and Bank on January 1, 2015. The Basel III Capital Rules provide for the following minimum capital to risk-weighted assets ratios as of January 1, 2015: a) 4.5% based upon common equity tier 1 capital ("CET1"); b) 6.0% based upon tier 1 capital; and c) 8.0% based upon total regulatory capital. A minimum leverage ratio (tier 1 capital as a percentage of average consolidated assets) of 4.0% is also required under the Basel III Capital Rules. The Basel III Capital Rules require institutions to retain a capital conservation buffer, composed entirely of CET1, of 2.5% above these required minimum capital ratio levels. Banking organizations that fail to maintain the minimum 2.5% capital conservation buffer could face restrictions on capital distributions or discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. Restrictions would begin phasing in where the banking organization’s capital conservation buffer was below 2.5% at the beginning of a quarter, and distributions and discretionary bonus payments would be completely prohibited if no capital conservation buffer exists. The Bank is also governed by numerous federal and state laws and regulations, including the FDIC Improvement Act of 1991, which established five categories of capital adequacy ranging from “well-capitalized” to critically undercapitalized (although these items are not utilized to represent overall financial condition). The FDIC utilizes these categories of capital adequacy to determine various matters, including, but not limited to, prompt corrective action and deposit insurance premium assessment levels. Capital levels and adequacy classifications may also be subject to qualitative judgments by the Bank’s regulators regarding, among other factors, the components of capital and risk weighting. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions and asset growth are limited, and capital restoration plans are required. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. Also, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Bank satisfied all criteria necessary to be categorized as “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There have been no conditions or events since December 31, 2021 that management believes have changed its “well-capitalized” categorization.

Banking regulations may limit the amount of dividends that may be paid. Approval by regulatory authorities is required if the effect of dividends declared would cause the regulatory capital of the Bank to fall below specified minimum levels. Approval is also required if dividends declared exceed the net profits for that year combined with the retained net profits for the preceding two years. The Company has paid cash dividends of $18.4 million and $12.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Payment of stock or cash dividends in the future will depend upon the Company's earnings and financial condition, and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, as well as the Company’s legal ability to pay dividends. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any dividends will be declared in the future. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Company utilizes interest rate swap and cap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of interest rate swaps and caps do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate cap or swap agreements. Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk As of December 31, 2021, the Company held two two-year interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $650 million. These swaps were entered into in February and June 2021. The swaps provide a hedge against the interest rate risk associated with both fixed rate loans and hybrid adjustable loans in their fixed rate period. During the year ended December 31, 2021, two separate, two-year interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $1.0 billion matured. These swaps, which were in equal notional amounts of $500.0 million, matured in June and August 2021, and provided a hedge against the interest rate risk related to certain hybrid multifamily loans which were in their fixed rate period. All outstanding swaps are designated as fair value hedges and involve the payment of a fixed rate amount to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving a variable rate payment over the life of the swaps without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. Any gain or loss on the derivatives, as well as any offsetting loss or gain on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in interest income on loans. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the floating rate amounts recognized related to the net settlement of interest rate swaps were less than the fixed rate amounts recognized. The following table presents the effect of the Company’s interest rate swaps on the consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: Years Ended December 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Derivative - interest rate swaps: Interest (loss) income $ (7,570) $ (10,830) Hedged items - loans: Interest (loss) income (31) 25 Net decrease in interest income $ (7,601) $ (10,805) The following table presents the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps, as well as their classification in the consolidated statements of financial condition as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: Fair Values of Derivative Instruments Asset Derivatives Liability Derivatives (Dollars in thousands) Notional Amount Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: As of December 31, 2021: Interest Rate Swaps $ 650,000 Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets $ 3,108 Other Liabilities and Accrued Expenses $ — As of December 31, 2020: Interest Rate Swaps $ 1,000,000 Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets $ — Other Liabilities and Accrued Expenses $ 7,258 As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the following amounts were recorded in the consolidated statements of financial condition related to cumulative basis adjustments for its fair value hedges: Line Item in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition in Which the Hedged Items are Included Carrying Amount of the Hedged Assets Cumulative Amount of Fair Value Hedging Adjustment Included in the Carrying Amount of the Hedged Assets (Dollars in thousands) As of December 31, 2021: Loans receivable, net (1) $ 646,890 $ (3,110) As of December 31, 2020: Loans receivable, net (1) $ 1,007,288 $ 7,288 (1) These amounts include the amortized cost basis of portfolio loans used to designate hedging relationships in which the hedged items are the last layer expected to be remaining at the end of the hedging relationship.

Compensation Related Costs [Abstract] | |
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Salary Continuation Arrangements The Company has individual salary continuation agreements with certain current and former key executives and directors. These agreements are accounted for as deferred compensation arrangements and are unsecured and unfunded. Benefits under these agreements are fixed for each participant and are payable over a specific period following their retirement or at an earlier date such as termination without cause, the sale of the Company, or death. Participants vest in these agreements based on their years of service subsequent to being covered under these agreements. The accrued obligation of $17.3 million and $16.2 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company recognized compensation expense of $2.3 million and $2.9 million related to these agreements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company has purchased insurance on the lives of the participants to help offset the cost of the benefits accrued under these agreements and provide death benefits to fund obligations in the event an employee dies prior to retirement. The cash surrender value of such policies was $18.2 million and $18.1 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and is reflected in prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. Earnings on these life insurance policies were $16 thousand and $123 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. 401(k) Plan The Company maintains a 401(k) Savings Plan for substantially all employees age 18 or older who have completed at least six months of service. Employees may contribute up to the maximum statutory allowable contribution which was $19,500 for both 2021 and 2020. The Company matches 100% of employee salary contribution deferrals up to 3% of pay, plus 50% of employee salary contribution deferrals from 3% to 5% of pay. Company contributions for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company’s stock based compensation consists of RSUs and RSAs granted under the Luther Burbank Corporation Omnibus Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan ("Omnibus Plan"). In connection with its IPO in December 2017, the Company granted RSUs in exchange for unvested phantom stock related to a then discontinued employee benefit plan that awarded phantom stock to certain key executives and nonemployee directors. The RSUs were granted on a per share basis, with the same vesting schedule and deferral elections that existed for the original phantom stock awards. Post IPO, the Company typically grants RSAs to nonemployee directors and certain employees on an annual basis. RSA grants vest ratably over one year for nonemployee directors and ratably over three All RSAs and RSUs are granted at the fair value of the common stock at the time of the award. RSAs and RSUs are considered fixed awards as the number of shares and fair value are known at the date of grant and the fair value at the grant date is amortized over the vesting and/or service period. Non-cash stock compensation expense recognized for RSAs and RSUs for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 totaled $2.5 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The fair value of RSAs and RSUs that vested during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $2.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there was $2.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, of unrecognized compensation expense related to 489,703 and 464,919 unvested shares of RSAs, respectively, which amounts are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.69 years and 1.76 years, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, 91,486 and 140,997 shares, respectively, of RSUs were vested and remain unsettled per the original deferral elections.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2021 | |
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair Value Hierarchy The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. Valuations within these levels are based upon: Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets. Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 - Model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use on pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include management judgment and estimation which may be significant. Because broadly traded markets do not exist for most of the Company’s financial instruments, the fair value calculations attempt to incorporate the effect of current market conditions at a specific time. These determinations are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company. Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period. Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities, or total earnings. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments: For cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits and short-term borrowings, the carrying amount was estimated to be fair value. The fair value of accrued interest receivable/payable balances were determined using inputs and fair value measurements commensurate with the asset or liability from which the accrued interest is generated. Fair values for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities, which include primarily debt securities issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies, were based on quoted market prices for similar securities. Fair values for equity securities, which consist of investments in a qualified community reinvestment fund, were based on quoted market prices. Loans were valued using the exit price notion. The fair value was estimated using market quotes for similar assets or the present value of future cash flows, discounted using a market rate for similar products and giving consideration to estimated prepayment risk and credit risk. The fair value of loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans were measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, the Company may measure impairment based on a loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral (net of estimated costs to sell) if the loan is collateral dependent. The fair value of impaired loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a valuation model that utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed, and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income and that can be validated against available market data. The fair values of derivatives were based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date. Fair values for fixed-rate time deposits were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates offered at each reporting date by the Company for time deposits with similar remaining maturities. For deposits with no contractual maturity, the fair value was assumed to equal the carrying value. The fair value of FHLB advances was estimated based on discounting the future cash flows using the market rate currently offered for similar terms. The fair value of subordinated debentures was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker. For senior debt, the fair value was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES (VIE) | VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES ("VIE")The Company is involved with VIEs through its loan securitization activities. The Company evaluated its association with VIEs for consolidation purposes. Specifically, a VIE is to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE, and a variable interest that could potentially be significant to the VIE. A variable interest is a contractual, ownership or other interest whose value fluctuates with the changes in the value of the VIE's assets and liabilities. The assessment includes an evaluation of the Company's continuing involvement with the VIE and the nature and significance of its variable interests. Multifamily loan securitization With respect to the securitization transaction with Freddie Mac which settled September 27, 2017, the Company's variable interests reside with a reimbursement agreement entered into with Freddie Mac that obligates the Company to reimburse Freddie Mac for defaulted contractual principal and interest payments identified after the ultimate resolution of any defaulted loans. Such reimbursement obligations are not to exceed 10% of the original principal amount of the loans comprising the securitization pool. As part of the securitization transaction, the Company released all servicing obligations and rights to Freddie Mac who was designated as the Master Servicer. As Master Servicer, Freddie Mac appointed the Company with sub-servicing obligations, which include obligations to collect and remit payments of principal and interest, manage payments of taxes and insurance, and otherwise administer the underlying loans. The servicing of defaulted loans and foreclosed loans was assigned to a separate third party entity, independent of the Company and Freddie Mac. Freddie Mac, in its capacity as Master Servicer, can terminate the Company in its role as sub-servicer and direct such responsibilities accordingly. In evaluating the variable interests and continuing involvement in the VIE, the Company determined that it does not have the power to make significant decisions or direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE's assets and liabilities. As sub-servicer of the loans, the Company does not have the authority to make significant decisions that influence the value of the VIE's net assets and therefore, is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Hence, the Company determined that the VIE associated with the multifamily securitization should not be included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. |

Transfers and Servicing [Abstract] | |
LOAN SALE AND SECURITIZATION ACTIVITIES | LOAN SALE AND SECURITIZATION ACTIVITIES The Company periodically sells loans as part of its business operations and overall management of liquidity, assets and liabilities, and financial performance. The transfer of loans is executed in securitization or sale transactions. With respect to sale transactions, the Company's continuing involvement may or may not include ongoing servicing responsibilities and general representations and warranties. With respect to securitization sales, the Company executed its first and only transaction to date on September 27, 2017 with Freddie Mac. The transaction involved the sale of $626 million in originated multifamily loans through a Freddie Mac sponsored transaction. The Company's continuing involvement includes sub-servicing responsibilities, general representations and warranties, and a limited reimbursement obligation. As sub-servicer for Freddie Mac, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum net worth in accordance with GAAP of not less than $2.0 million. If the Bank's capital were to fall below this threshold, Freddie Mac would have the authority to terminate and assume the Bank’s sub-servicing duties. At December 31, 2021, the Bank’s net worth was $802.8 million which equates to its Tier 1 capital of $799.5 million plus goodwill of $3.3 million and accumulated other comprehensive income related to net unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $88 thousand. General representations and warranties associated with loan sales and the securitization transaction require the Company to uphold various assertions that pertain to the underlying loans at the time of the transaction, including, but not limited to, compliance with relevant laws and regulations, absence of fraud, enforcement of liens, no environmental damages, and maintenance of relevant environmental insurance. Such representations and warranties are limited to those that do not meet the quality represented at the transaction date and do not pertain to a decline in value or future payment defaults. In circumstances where the Company breaches its representations and warranties, the Company would generally be required to cure such instances through a repurchase or substitution of the subject loan(s). With respect to the securitization transaction, the Company also has continuing involvement through a reimbursement agreement executed with Freddie Mac. To the extent the ultimate resolution of defaulted loans results in contractual principal and interest payments that are deficient, the Company is obligated to reimburse Freddie Mac for such amounts, not to exceed 10% of the original principal amount of the loans comprising the securitization pool at the closing date of September 27, 2017.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments represent commitments to originate fixed and variable rate loans and loans in process, and involve, to varying degrees, credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments to originate loans and lines of credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. As it relates to interest rate risk, the Company's exposure is generally limited to increases in interest rates that may result during the short period of time between the commitment and funding of fixed rate credit facilities and adjustable rate credit facilities with initial fixed rate periods. The limited timing risk associated with these credit facilities are considered within the Company's asset liability management process. Commitments to fund loans and lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have expiration dates or other termination clauses. In addition, external market forces may impact the probability of commitments being exercised; therefore, total commitments outstanding do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had outstanding commitments of approximately $132.8 million and $116.9 million, respectively, for loans and lines of credit. Unfunded loan commitment reserves totaled $153 thousand and $59 thousand at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Contingencies At present, there are no pending or threatened proceedings against the Company which, if determined adversely, would have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In the ordinary course of operations, the Company may be party to various legal proceedings. Correspondent Banking Agreements |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting standards and prevailing practices within the banking industry and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company currently has two unconsolidated subsidiaries in the form of wholly-owned statutory business trusts, which were formed to issue junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures. See Note 9, “Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures,” for additional information regarding these trusts. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and deposits with other financial institutions with maturities of less than three months. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions. |
Restricted Cash Balances | Restricted Cash Balances The Company may include cash collateral in connection with interest rate swaps in restricted cash within the consolidated statements of financial condition. At December 31, 2021 the Company had no |
Investment Securities | Investment Securities The Company classifies its investment securities into three categories, available for sale, held to maturity and equity, at the time of purchase. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes. Investment securities held to maturity are measured at amortized cost, based on the Company’s positive intent and ability to hold such securities to maturity. Equity securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other noninterest income within the consolidated statements of income. Interest income includes amortization/accretion of purchase premiums/discounts. Premiums and discounts are amortized, or accreted, over the life of the related investment security, or the earliest call date with respect to premiums on callable securities, as an adjustment to interest income using a method that approximates the interest method. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method. An investment security is impaired when its carrying value is greater than its fair value. Investment securities that are impaired are evaluated on at least a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation to determine whether such a decline in their fair value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term ‘‘other than temporary’’ is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent, but indicates that the prospect for a near-term recovery of value is not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, and management does not intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit exposure is recognized as a charge to earnings, with the balance recognized as a charge to other comprehensive (loss) income. If management intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its forecasted cost, the entire impairment loss is recognized as a charge to earnings. |
Loans Receivable | Loans Receivable Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan origination fees and costs and the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Premiums or discounts to acquire loans are amortized over the life of the loan using a method that approximates the interest method. The Company charges fees for originating loans. These fees, net of certain related direct loan origination costs, are deferred. The net deferred fees or costs on loans held for investment are recognized as an adjustment of the loan’s yield over the contractual life of the loan using the interest method. The Company ceases to amortize deferred fees or costs on loans for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued. Other loan fees and charges representing service costs are reported in income when collected or earned. |
Loans Held for Sale | Loans Held for Sale Mortgage loans held for sale are sold with servicing rights released or retained. Realized gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are accounted for under the specific identification method and based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold servicing retained is reduced by the amount allocated to the servicing right. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit RiskThe majority of our customers are individuals and businesses located and doing business in the state of California, with approximately half our collateral located in Los Angeles and Orange counties. The Company's exposure to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in the economy of California, and specifically, Los Angeles and Orange Counties. |
Allowance for Loan Losses | Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses represents the estimated probable incurred credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. 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, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower circumstances, 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 Company performs periodic and systematic detailed reviews of its loan portfolio to assess the overall collectability of its loans. The Company’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists of the combined total of two key components. The first component covers loans that are impaired. All loans are evaluated for impairment on a recurring basis. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, including principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans that are reported as troubled debt restructures (“TDRs”) are considered impaired. A restructuring of a debt constitutes a TDR if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. Restructured workout loans typically present an elevated level of credit risk as the borrowers are not able to perform according to the original contractual terms. Impaired loans and TDRs that are solely dependent on the operation or liquidation of collateral for repayment are measured for impairment at the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. Impaired loans, including TDRs, that are not considered collateral dependent, are measured based on the present value of loan payments expected to be received discounted at the loans’ original effective contractual interest rate. If the recorded investment in the impaired loans exceeds the value of funds to be received, an allowance is established as a component of the total allowance for loan losses unless the loans are solely dependent on the collateral for repayment, in which case the amount that exceeds the fair value of the collateral is charged off. The second element of the allowance covers probable incurred losses inherent in performing loans that have yet to be specifically identified for impairment. This component of the allowance is estimated by applying reserve factors based on average historical loss experience for the previous nine Multifamily residential and commercial real estate loans - These loans typically involve greater principal amounts than other types of loans, and repayment depends upon income generated, or expected to be generated, by the property securing the loan in amounts sufficient to cover operating expenses and debt service, which may be adversely affected by changes in the economy or local market conditions. Multifamily residential and commercial real estate loans also expose a lender to significant credit risk because the collateral securing these loans typically cannot be sold as easily as single family residential real estate. In addition, some commercial real estate loans are not fully amortizing and contain large balloon payments upon maturity. Such balloon payments may require the borrower to either sell or refinance the underlying property in order to comply with the terms of the loan agreement, which may increase the risk of default or non-payment. Single family residential real estate loans - The degree of risk in single family residential real estate lending depends primarily on the loan amount in relation to collateral value, the interest rate, and the borrower’s ability to repay in an orderly fashion. These loans generally possess a lower inherent risk of loss than other real estate portfolio segments. Economic trends determined by unemployment rates and other key economic indicators are closely correlated to the credit quality of these loans. Weak economic trends indicate that the borrowers’ capacity to repay their obligations may be deteriorating. Construction and land loans - This type of lending generally possess a higher inherent risk of loss than other real estate portfolio segments. A major risk arises from the necessity to complete projects within specified costs and timelines. Trends in the construction industry significantly impact the credit quality of these loans, as demand drives construction activity. In addition, trends in real estate values significantly impact the credit quality of these loans, as property values determine the economic viability of construction projects. The total allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, which is charged against current period operating results, and decreased by reversals of loan loss provisions as well as loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. Losses incurred upon the initial acquisition of real estate owned through foreclosure are charged to the allowance for loan losses. |
Accrued Interest Receivable on Loans | Accrued Interest Receivable on Loans Interest receivable is only accrued if deemed collectible. It is the Company’s policy to place a loan on non-accrual status in the event that the borrower is 90 days or more delinquent (unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection), or earlier if the timely collection of contractual payments appears doubtful. At the time a loan is placed on non-accrual, accrued interest is reversed out of interest income. Cash payments subsequently received on non-accrual loans are recognized as income only where the future collection of the remaining principal is considered by management to be probable. Loans are restored to accrual status only when the loan is less than 90 days delinquent and not in foreclosure, and the borrower has demonstrated the ability to make future payments of principal and interest. |
Servicing Rights | Servicing Rights When mortgage loans are sold with servicing retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Under the fair value measurement method, the Company measures servicing rights at fair value at each reporting date and reports changes in the fair value of servicing assets in earnings in the period in which the changes occur, and such changes are included with other income on the consolidated statements of income. The fair values of servicing rights are calculated using model assumptions including factors such as prepayment rates, market rates and other model cash flow assumptions. Absent other changes, an increase (decrease) to the estimated life of serviced loans would generally increase (decrease) the fair value of servicing rights. The fair value of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuation as a result of changes in estimates and when actual factors such as prepayment speeds, default rates, and losses differ from model assumptions. |
Transfers of Financial Assets | Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. |
Real Estate Owned (REO) | Real Estate Owned ("REO") Real estate acquired as a result of loan foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. Physical possession of a residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan occurs when legal title is obtained upon completion of foreclosure or when the borrower conveys all interest in the property to satisfy the loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Fair value is typically based on a real estate appraisal. REO is subsequently accounted for at the lower of cost or fair |
Premises and Equipment | Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Land is carried at cost. The Company’s policy is to depreciate buildings, furniture and equipment on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the various assets and to amortize leasehold improvements over the shorter of the asset life or lease term as follows: Leasehold improvements Lesser of term of lease or life of improvement Furniture and equipment 2 to 7 years Building 39 years The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets on an ongoing basis. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred. |
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock | Federal Home Loan Bank Stock As a member of the FHLB, the Bank is required to own capital stock in an amount specified by the level of FHLB borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security and periodically evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recovery of par value. Cash dividends are reported as noninterest income on an accrual basis. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Bank owned 234,108 and 251,217 shares of $100 par value FHLB stock, respectively. |
Goodwill | GoodwillGoodwill arises from business combinations and is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill determined to have an indefinite useful life is not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount of the excess and the carrying value of the goodwill is reduced accordingly. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the balance sheet. |
Bank-Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) | Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”) Bank-owned life insurance is initially recorded at cost. Subsequently, BOLI is carried at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or amounts due that are probable at settlement. Increases in contract value are recorded as noninterest income and insurance proceeds received are recorded as a reduction of the contract value. |
Reserve for Loan Commitments | Reserve for Loan Commitments The Company maintains a reserve within other liabilities associated with commitments to fund undisbursed loan commitments on outstanding loans. This reserve is determined based upon the historical loss experience of similar loans held by the Company at each period end. Any changes in this reserve amount are recognized through earnings as a component of noninterest expense. |
Marketing | Marketing Marketing costs are expensed as incurred. |
Derivatives | Derivatives At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company designates the derivative as one of three types based on the Company’s intentions and belief as to the likely effectiveness as a hedge. These three types are (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (‘‘fair value hedge’’), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (‘‘cash flow hedge’’), or (3) an instrument with no hedging designation (‘‘stand-alone derivative’’). For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item, are recognized in earnings as fair values change. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For both types of hedges, changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not highly effective in hedging the changes in fair value or expected cash flows of the hedged item are recognized immediately in current earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in earnings, as noninterest income. Net cash settlements on derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in interest income or interest expense, based on the item being hedged. Net cash settlements on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in noninterest income. Cash flows on hedges are classified in the cash flow statement the same as the cash flows of the items being hedged. The Company formally documents the relationship between derivatives and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge transactions at the inception of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes linking fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminates, a hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, a hedged firm commitment is no longer firm, or treatment of the derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended. When hedge accounting is discontinued, subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded as noninterest income. When a fair value hedge is discontinued, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and the existing basis adjustment is amortized or accreted over the remaining life of the asset or liability. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transactions are still expected to occur, gains or losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income are amortized into earnings over the same periods which the hedged transactions will affect earnings. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 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 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 these estimates. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the reported amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company uses a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting, and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is ‘‘more likely than not’’ that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation The Company has issued awards of equity instruments, such as restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), to employees and certain nonemployee directors. Compensation expense related to restricted stock is based on the fair value of the underlying stock on the award date and is amortized over the service period, defined as the vesting period, using the straight-line method. The vesting period is generally three years for employees and one year for nonemployee directors. Compensation expense is reduced for actual forfeitures as they occur. Unvested RSAs and RSUs participate with common stock in any dividends declared, but are paid only on the shares which ultimately vest. Such dividends are accrued when declared and paid at the time of vesting. |
Comprehensive Income | Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The only item of other comprehensive income (loss) for the Company are unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as available for sale, net of tax. Reclassification adjustments resulting from gains or losses on investment securities available for sale that have been realized and included in net income of the current period that also had been included in other comprehensive income as unrealized holding gains or losses in the period in which they arose have been excluded from comprehensive income (loss) of the current period to avoid double counting. |
Earnings Per Share (EPS) | Earnings Per Share ("EPS")Basic earnings per common share represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Basic EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. In determining the weighted average number of shares outstanding, vested restricted stock units are included. Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period available to each share of common stock outstanding including common stock that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted EPS is computed based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for the effect of dilutive potential common shares, such as unvested restricted stock awards and units, calculated using the treasury stock method. |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions In the normal course of business, the Company may accept deposits from officers, directors and other related parties. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were $26.8 million and $15.2 million, respectively, of such deposits. The Company does not permit loans to officers, directors or other related |
Business Segments | Business Segments While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain prior balances in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity. |
Investment, Policy | COVID-19 Beginning in early 2020 and continuing through December 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a disruption to almost every aspect of the economy. As a result, in March 2020, the Company implemented a lending modification initiative to support our customers financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and unable to make their scheduled loan payments. The program provided borrowers the opportunity to modify their existing real estate loans by temporarily deferring payments for a specified period of time. Modified loans under this program were generally downgraded from a Pass risk rating to a Watch risk rating at the time of their respective modification. Subsequent to the modification period, loan grades were adjusted, as necessary, in connection with the Company's proactive reassessment of loans impacted by the pandemic. Loan risk ratings are an integral part of the quantitative calculation of our allowance for loan losses. Further, in early 2020, we established a qualitative loan loss reserve in connection with the uncertainty related to the pandemic. This supplemental reserve has been slowly reduced as the impact of the pandemic on our loan portfolio has become less uncertain. Qualitative adjustments to our allowance specific to COVID-19 were $2.5 million and $8.4 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Management intends to closely monitor the level of this reserve and make any necessary adjustments as conditions related to the pandemic change. All of the loans modified for pandemic related payment deferral in 2020 and 2021 had returned to scheduled monthly payments or paid off in full by June 2021. Additionally, total criticized loans have declined to $16.7 million at December 31, 2021, as compared to $57.0 million at December 31, 2020. The decline in criticized loans from the prior year end was generally attributable to the continued performance of our loans that were initially impacted by the pandemic. During the years ended December 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred no loan losses for pandemic impacted loans. The Company's exposure to nonresidential commercial real estate remains limited, totaling $187.1 million, or 3.0% of our loan portfolio, at December 31, 2021. |
Adoption of New Financial Accounting Standards | Adoption of New Financial Accounting Standards FASB ASU 2016-02 In February 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance that requires lessees recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date (1) a lease liability, which is the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. These amendments are effective for Public Business Entities ("PBEs") for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. As an emerging growth company, the Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2022. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company will recognize a liability for its obligations under its operating leases and a corresponding right-of-use asset for its right to use leased properties over the lease term. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company expects to record a right-of-use asset of approximately $16.3 million and a corresponding lease liability of approximately $15.8 million. The adoption of this standard is not expected to materially impact the Company’s operating results. FASB ASU 2016-13 In June 2016, FASB issued guidance to replace the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, held to maturity debt securities, and reinsurance receivables. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor. The transition will be applied as follows: - For debt securities with other than temporary impairment ("OTTI"), the guidance will be applied prospectively. - Existing purchased credit impaired ("PCI") assets will be grandfathered and classified as purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD") assets at the date of adoption. The assets will be grossed up for the allowance for expected credit losses for all PCD assets at the date of adoption and will continue to recognize the noncredit discount in interest income based on the yield of such assets as of the adoption date. Subsequent changes in expected credit losses will be recorded through the allowance. - For all other assets within the scope of CECL, a cumulative-effect adjustment will be recognized in retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. These amendments are effective for PBEs that are Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filers for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. As an emerging growth company, the Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2023. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective. Through December 31, 2021, CECL implementation activities have generally focused on capturing and validating loan data, segmenting the loan portfolio, evaluating credit loss methodologies and models, as well as evaluating model results and sensitivities. In determining an expected allowance under CECL, the Company has selected a credit loss model that utilizes an approach focused on a loan's probability of default and loss given default. As part of the process to test and refine our CECL model, the Company has completed quarterly model runs for analysis and backtesting purposes starting with the third quarter of 2018. This process has been on-going and will continue until our adoption date. Continuing implementation activities include the engagement of a third party model validation, refining qualitative factor adjustments, drafting policies and disclosures and evaluating, documenting and testing internal controls. We estimate that the adoption of the CECL standard would not currently result in a material change in our allowance for credit losses, which, if necessary, will be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, net of tax as of January 1, 2023. The ultimate impact will depend on the portfolio and forecasts when the standard is adopted. FASB ASU 2019-12 In December 2019, FASB issued guidance that removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 to simplify the accounting for income taxes and clarifies and amends existing guidance to provide for more consistent application. ASU 2019-12 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition. FASB ASU 2020-04 In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The amendments in this ASU are elective and apply to all entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The guidance permits companies to: – Simplify accounting analyses for contract modifications. – Allow hedging relationships to continue without de-designation if there are qualifying changes in the critical terms of an existing hedging relationship due to reference rate reform. – Allow a change in the systematic and rational method used to recognize in earnings the components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. – Allow a change in the designated benchmark interest rate to a different eligible benchmark interest rate in a fair value hedging relationship. – Allow for the shortcut method for a fair value hedging relationship to continue for the remainder of the hedging relationship. – Simplify the assessment of hedge ineffectiveness and provide temporary optional expedients for cash flow hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform. – Allow a one-time election to sell or transfer debt securities classified as held to maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform and were classified as held to maturity before January 1, 2020. These amendments are effective for all entities from the beginning of an interim period that includes the issuance date of this ASU. An entity may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Hierarchy The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. Valuations within these levels are based upon: Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments traded in active exchange markets. Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 - Model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use on pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include management judgment and estimation which may be significant. Because broadly traded markets do not exist for most of the Company’s financial instruments, the fair value calculations attempt to incorporate the effect of current market conditions at a specific time. These determinations are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications; therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair value calculations presented herein do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company. Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period. Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities, or total earnings. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments: For cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits and short-term borrowings, the carrying amount was estimated to be fair value. The fair value of accrued interest receivable/payable balances were determined using inputs and fair value measurements commensurate with the asset or liability from which the accrued interest is generated. Fair values for available for sale and held to maturity debt securities, which include primarily debt securities issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies, were based on quoted market prices for similar securities. Fair values for equity securities, which consist of investments in a qualified community reinvestment fund, were based on quoted market prices. Loans were valued using the exit price notion. The fair value was estimated using market quotes for similar assets or the present value of future cash flows, discounted using a market rate for similar products and giving consideration to estimated prepayment risk and credit risk. The fair value of loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans were measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, the Company may measure impairment based on a loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral (net of estimated costs to sell) if the loan is collateral dependent. The fair value of impaired loans was determined utilizing estimates resulting in a Level 3 classification. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a valuation model that utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed, and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income and that can be validated against available market data. The fair values of derivatives were based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date. Fair values for fixed-rate time deposits were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates offered at each reporting date by the Company for time deposits with similar remaining maturities. For deposits with no contractual maturity, the fair value was assumed to equal the carrying value. The fair value of FHLB advances was estimated based on discounting the future cash flows using the market rate currently offered for similar terms. The fair value of subordinated debentures was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker. For senior debt, the fair value was based on an indication of value provided by a third-party broker. |
