In addition, this report has been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q, and therefore, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of West Coast Bancorp (“Bancorp” or the “Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, West Coast Bank (the “Bank”), West Coast Trust and Totten, Inc., after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances. The Company’s interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes, including our significant accounting policies, contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (“2009 10-K”).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial information contained in this report reflects all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010, or other future periods.
Supplemental cash flow information. The following table presents supplemental cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

New accounting pronouncements.
On July 21, 2010, the FASB issued guidance contained in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2010-20 “Disclosures About the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” that amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), 310 “Receivables” by requiring additional and disaggregated disclosures about the credit quality of an entity’s financing receivables and its allowance for credit losses. The new and amended disclosures that relate to information as of the end of a reporting period will be effective for the first interim or annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures that include information for activity that occurs during a reporting period will be effective for the first interim or annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of income (loss), its consolidated balance sheet, or its consolidated statement of cash flows.

2. STOCK PLANS
At June 30, 2010, Bancorp maintained two stock plans; the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (“2002 Plan”) and the 1999 Stock Option Plan (“1999 Plan”). No additional grants may be made under the 1999 Plan. The 2002 Plan, which is shareholder approved, permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock and certain other stock based awards. On April 26, 2010, shareholders approved a 2.0 million share increase in the shares available under the 2002 Plan. The 2002 Plan permits the grant of stock options and restricted stock awards for up to 4.1 million shares, of which 488,771 shares remained available for issuance as of June 30, 2010.
All outstanding stock options have an exercise price that is equal to the closing market value of Bancorp’s stock on the date the options were granted. Options granted under the 2002 Plan generally vest over a two to four year vesting period; however, certain grants have been made that vested immediately, including grants to directors. Stock options granted have a 10 year maximum term. Options previously issued under the 1999 Plan are fully vested. It is Bancorp’s policy to issue new shares for stock option exercises and restricted stock. Bancorp expenses stock options and restricted stock on a straight line basis over the applicable vesting term.
The following table presents information on stock options outstanding for the period shown:
| | Six months ended |

There was no intrinsic value in any options exercised in the periods presented. The balance of unearned compensation related to stock options as of June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, was $.2 million and $.3 million, respectively.
The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes based stock option valuation model. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from Bancorp’s stock, historical volatility of Bancorp’s stock, and other factors. Expected dividend yields are based on dividend trends and the market price of Bancorp’s stock price at grant. Bancorp uses historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations within the valuation model. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
The following table presents the Black-Scholes assumptions used in connection with stock option grants in the periods shown.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2010, the fair value of the securities in the investment portfolio was $646.2 million while the amortized cost was $639.3 million, reflecting a net unrealized gain in the portfolio of $6.9 million. At December 31, 2009, the fair value and amortized cost of securities in the investment portfolio were $562.3 million and $564.6 million, respectively, reflecting a net unrealized loss of $2.3 million.
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company recorded other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”) charges totaling $.2 million pretax comprised of $.1 million relating to an investment in a Lehman Brothers bond held in our corporate securities portfolio, and $.1 million for an investment in Freddie Mac preferred stock held in our equity and other securities portfolio. Both of these investments were sold in the second quarter of 2009 for no additional gain or loss.
The corporate securities portfolio had a $4.8 million net unrealized loss at June 30, 2010. The unrealized loss was associated with the decline in market value of our four investments in pooled trust preferred securities issued primarily by banks and insurance companies. An increase in liquidity and credit spreads, including certain issuer defaults, and an extension of expected cash flows, including issuer elections to defer interest payments, contributed to the unrealized loss associated with these securities which had an amortized cost of $14.0 million and a $9.2 million estimated fair value at June 30, 2010. Compared to December 31, 2009, the value of these securities decreased slightly due to a modest increase in credit spreads and expected duration of cash flows during the first half of 2010. These securities have several features that reduce credit risk, including seniority over certain tranches in the same pool and the benefit of certain collateral coverage tests. Based on our current estimates of the future default rates for the underlying collateral, we believe these features are sufficient to protect the Company’s securities from experiencing any credit losses.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2010, the Company had nine investment securities with an amortized cost of $21.7 million and an unrealized loss of $5.4 million that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The $4.8 million unrealized loss in the corporate securities category was due to the decline in market value for the pooled trust preferred securities.
There were a total of five securities in Bancorp’s investment portfolio with an amortized cost of $5.3 million and a total unrealized loss of $.2 million at June 30, 2010, that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. The unrealized loss on these investment securities was predominantly caused by increases in interest rates or credit spreads subsequent to purchase. The fair value of most of our securities fluctuates as market interest rates change.
Based on management’s review and evaluation of the Company’s debt securities, the Company does not intend to sell any debt securities which have an unrealized loss, it is unlikely the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery, and we expect to recover the entire amortized cost of these impaired securities. Accordingly, the debt securities with unrealized losses were not considered to have an OTTI.
At June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, the Company had $575.6 and $339.0 million, respectively, in investment securities being provided as collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”), the State of Oregon and the State of Washington, and others for our borrowings and certain public fund deposits. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Bancorp had no reverse repurchase agreements.

7. LOSS PER SHARE
The loss per share is calculated under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines loss per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. A participating security is an instrument that may participate in undistributed earnings with common stock. The Company has issued restricted stock that qualifies as a participating security. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed in the same manner as basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if certain shares issuable upon exercise of options and non-vested restricted stock were included, unless those additional shares would have been anti-dilutive.
The following tables reconcile the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted loss per share computations:

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Bank has financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments.
The following table summarizes the Bank’s off balance sheet unfunded commitments as of the dates shown.
| Contract or | | Contract or |

Total | $ | 572,205 | | $ | 564,431 |
| | | | | |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the underlying contracts. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Many of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon; therefore total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each customer’s creditworthiness is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on the Bank’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include real property, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. The Company maintains a reserve for unfunded commitments as a component of the allowance for credit losses.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to support a customer’s performance or payment obligation to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
During the second quarter of 2010, the Bank revised its overdraft protection program resulting in both more efficient operations and an increase in the availability of this product to our customers. The modifications to this program contributed to an increase in the overall amount of outstanding commitments to customers under account overdraft protection instruments by approximately $37 million from year end 2009.
Interest rates on residential 1-4 family mortgage loan applications are typically rate locked during the application stage for periods ranging from 15 to 45 days, the most typical period being 30 days. These loans are locked with various qualified investors under a best-efforts delivery program. The Company makes every effort to deliver these loans before their rate locks expire. This arrangement generally requires the Bank to deliver the loans prior to the expiration of the rate lock. Delays in funding the loans may require a lock extension. The cost of a lock extension at times is borne by the borrower and at times by the Bank. These lock extension costs paid by the Bank are not expected to have a material impact on results of operations. This activity is managed daily.
Bancorp is periodically party to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on information currently known to management, although there are uncertainties inherent in litigation, we do not believe there is any legal action to which Bancorp or any of its subsidiaries is a party that, individually or in the aggregate, will have a materially adverse effect on Bancorp’s financial condition and results of operations, cash flows, or liquidity.

The decrease in FHLB long-term borrowings during the first half of 2010 was due to the prepayment of $99.1 million of short and long term borrowings in the second quarter of 2010. Of the prepayment amount, $81.5 million represented ten long-term advances. At June 30, 2010, Bancorp’s remaining total long-term borrowings with fixed maturities, or non-putable advances, was $134.2 million, with rates ranging from 2.32% to 5.03%. Bancorp also had three structured, or putable, advances totaling $30.0 million, with original terms of five years at a rate of 2.45% to 3.78%. The scheduled maturities on these structured advances occur in February 2013, August 2013 and March 2014, although the FHLB may under certain circumstances require payment of these structured advances prior to maturity. Principal payments due at scheduled maturity of Bancorp’s total long-term borrowings at June 30, 2010, are $50.1 million in 2012, $71.9 million in 2013 and $42.2 million in 2014.
Bancorp had no outstanding federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, borrowings from the discount window or reverse repurchase agreements at June 30, 2010.

10. LONG-TERM BORROWINGS AND JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT (continued)
At June 30, 2010, six wholly-owned subsidiary grantor trusts established by Bancorp had an outstanding balance of $51.0 million in trust preferred securities. During 2009, the Company exercised its right to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on outstanding junior subordinated debentures related to its trust preferred securities. At June 30, 2010, the Company had a balance in other liabilities of $1.2 million in accrued and unpaid interest expense related to these junior subordinated debentures, and it may not pay dividends on its capital stock until all accrued but unpaid interest has been paid in full. The Company had recorded and continues to record junior subordinated debenture interest expense in long-term borrowings expense. Under our Written Agreement with the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services, Division of Finance and Corporate Securities (“DFCS”) and FRB, we cannot resume interest payments on our trust preferred securities without prior regulatory approval.
The following table is a summary of current trust preferred securities issued by the grantor trusts and guaranteed by Bancorp:

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A financial instrument is defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract that conveys or imposes the contractual right or obligation to either receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument. Examples of financial instruments included in Bancorp’s balance sheet are cash, federal funds sold, debt and equity securities, loans, demand, savings and other interest-bearing deposits, notes and debentures. Examples of financial instruments which are not included in the Bancorp balance sheet are commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Accounting standards require the fair value of deposit liabilities with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits, NOW and money market accounts, to equal the carrying value of these financial instruments and does not allow for the recognition of the inherent value of core deposit relationships when determining fair value.
Bancorp has estimated fair value based on quoted market prices where available. In cases where quoted market prices were not available, fair values were based on the quoted market price of a financial instrument with similar characteristics, the present value of expected future cash flows or other valuation techniques that utilize assumptions which are subjective and judgmental in nature. Subjective factors include, among other things, estimates of cash flows, the timing of cash flows, risk and credit quality characteristics, interest rates and liquidity premiums or discounts. Accordingly, the results may not be precise, and modifying the assumptions may significantly affect the values derived. Further, fair values may or may not be realized if a significant portion of the financial instruments were sold in a bulk transaction or a forced liquidation. Therefore, any aggregate unrealized gains or losses should not be interpreted as a forecast of future earnings or cash flows. Furthermore, the fair values disclosed should not be interpreted as the aggregate current value of Bancorp.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Trading securities – Trading securities held at June 30, 2010, are related solely to bonds, equity securities and mutual funds held in a Rabbi Trust for benefit of the Company’s deferred compensation plans. Fair values for trading securities are based on quoted market prices.
Investment securities - For substantially all securities within the categories U.S. Treasuries, U.S Government agencies, mortgage-backed, obligations of state and political subdivisions, and equity investments and other securities held for investment purposes, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes if available. When quoted market prices are not readily accessible or available, the use of alternative approaches, such as matrix or model pricing or indicators from market makers, is used. If a quoted market price is not available due to illiquidity, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities or other modeling techniques. If neither a quoted market price nor market prices for similar securities are available, fair value is estimated by discounting expected cash flows using a market derived discount rate as of the valuation date.
Our level 3 assets consist of pooled trust preferred securities and auction rate securities. The fair values of these securities were estimated using the discounted cash flow method. The fair value for these securities used inputs for base case default, recovery and prepayment rates to estimate the probable cash flows for the security. The estimated cash flows were discounted using a rate for comparably rated securities adjusted for an additional liquidity premium.
Loans - The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. An additional liquidity discount is also incorporated to more closely align the fair value with observed market prices.
Impaired loans - A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (both interest and principal) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair market value of the collateral. A significant portion of the Bank's impaired loans are measured using the fair market value of the collateral.
Bank owned life insurance - The carrying amount is the cash surrender value of all policies, which approximates fair value.
Other real estate owned - Management obtains third party appraisals as well as independent fair market value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling OREO in determining the fair value of particular properties. Accordingly, the valuation of OREO is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Management periodically reviews OREO to determine whether the property continues to be carried at the lower of its recorded book value or fair value.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
Goodwill – The method used to determine the impairment charge taken first quarter 2009 involved a two step process. The first step estimated fair value using a combination of quoted market price and an estimate of a control premium. It was determined that the estimated fair value of the Company’s Banking reporting unit was less than its book value and the carrying amount of the Company’s Banking reporting unit goodwill exceeded its implied fair value. The second step calculated the implied fair value of goodwill which required allocation of the fair value to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, in a hypothetical analysis.
Deposit liabilities - The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and other deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Short-term borrowings - The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value given the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Long-term borrowings - The fair value of the long-term borrowings is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rate at which similar borrowings with similar remaining maturities could be made.
Junior subordinated debentures - The fair value of the fixed rate junior subordinated debentures and trust preferred securities approximates the pricing of a preferred security at current market prices.
Commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees - The majority of our commitments to extend credit carry current market interest rates if converted to loans.
The tables below present fair value information on certain assets broken down by recurring or nonrecurring measurement status. Recurring assets are initially measured at fair value and are required to be reflected at fair value in the financial statements at each reporting date. Assets measured on a nonrecurring basis are assets that due to an event or circumstance were required to be re-measured at fair value after initial recognition in the financial statements at some time during the reporting period.
Assets are classified as level 1-3 based on the lowest level of input that has a significant effect on fair value. The following definitions describe the level 1-3 categories for inputs used in the tables presented below.
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1): Inputs that are quoted unadjusted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market for the asset is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Other observable inputs (Level 2): Inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity including quoted prices for similar assets, quoted prices for securities in inactive markets and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): Inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis after initial recognition such as loans held for sale, loans measured for impairment and OREO. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, loans held for sale were subject to the lower of cost or market method of accounting. However, there were no impairments recognized on loans held for sale in second quarter 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, certain loans included in Bancorp’s loan portfolio were deemed impaired. In addition, during the second quarter, certain properties were written down by a total of $1.3 million to reflect additional decreases in estimated fair market value subsequent to the time such properties were placed into OREO. The fair values for OREO in the table below reflect only the fair value of the properties and do not consider estimated costs to sell.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes to those statements of West Coast Bancorp (“Bancorp” or the “Company”) that appear under the heading “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Bancorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (“2009 10-K”), as well as the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the current quarter found under Item 1 above.
Forward-Looking Statement Disclosure
Statements in this Quarterly Report of the Company regarding future events or performance are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “PSLRA”) and are made pursuant to the safe harbors of the PSLRA. The Company’s actual results could be quite different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Any statements containing the words “could,” “may,” “should,” “plan,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “expects,” “projects,” “potential,” or “continue,” or words of similar import, constitute “forward-looking statements,” as do any other statements that expressly or implicitly predict future events, results, or performance. Factors that could cause results to differ from results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements include, among others, risks discussed in our 2009 10-K under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”, and in this report under Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” below, as well as the following specific factors:
General economic conditions, whether national or regional, and conditions in real estate markets, that may affect the demand for our loan and other products, lead to further declines in credit quality and additional loan losses, and negatively affect the value and salability of the real estate that we own or is the collateral for many of our loans;
Changing bank regulatory conditions, policies, or programs, whether arising as new legislation or regulatory initiatives, that could lead to restrictions on activities of banks generally or West Coast Bank (the “Bank”) in particular, increased costs for financial institutions, including higher Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance premiums and compliance costs, the elimination or expiration of programs expanding deposit insurance coverage, increased regulation, or outright prohibition of certain income producing activities;
Competitive factors, including competition with community, regional and national financial institutions, that may lead to pricing pressures that reduce yields the Bank earns on loans and increase rates the Bank pays on deposits, the loss of our most valued customers, defection of key employees or groups of employees, or other losses;
Increasing or decreasing interest rate environments, including the slope and level of the yield curve, that could hinder new loan origination, decrease our borrowers’ ability to repay loans, and lead to decreases in net interest margin, lower net interest and fee income, including lower gains on sales of loans, and changes in the value of the Company’s investment securities; and
Changes or failures in technology or third party vendor relationships in important revenue production or service areas or increases in required investments in technology that could reduce our revenues, increase our costs, or lead to disruptions in our business.
Furthermore, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s ability to, among other things: dispose of properties or other assets obtained through foreclosures at expected prices and within a reasonable period of time; manage its technology platforms and third party vendor relationships and control related costs; attract and retain key personnel; generate loan and deposit balances at projected spreads; sustain fee generation including gains on sales of loans; maintain asset quality and control risk; limit the amount of net loan charge-offs; adapt to changing customer deposit, investment and borrowing behaviors; control expense growth; and monitor and manage the Company’s financial reporting, operating and disclosure control environments.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date of the statements. The Company does not intend to publicly revise or update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report.
Readers should carefully review all disclosures we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Update on Enforcement Actions
On July 15, 2010, the Order to Cease and Desist (“Consent Order”) issued to the Bank effective on October 22, 2009 by the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services Division, Finance and Corporate Securities (“DFCS”) and the FDIC was terminated.
Termination of the Consent Order relieved the Bank of the requirements included in the Consent Order. Those requirements are summarized in our most recent Form 10-K. In addition to relieving the Bank of the requirements of the Consent Order, termination of the Consent Order has increased, and we expect will continue to increase, the willingness of third parties to do business with the Bank or to do so on terms more favorable to the Bank. Although the Consent Order has been terminated, we expect the DFCS and FDIC to implement an informal agreement, such as a memorandum of understanding, with the Bank.
Bancorp remains subject to a Written Agreement with the DFCS and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”). The requirements of the Written Agreement are also summarized in our most recent Form 10-K.
Discretionary Equity Issuance Program
On June 24, 2010 the Program commenced a Discretionary Equity Issuance Program (the “Program”) to enable the Company to offer for sale from time to time shares of its common stock, no par value per share (the “common stock”) for aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $30.0 million. In connection with the program, we sold, through Sandler O’Neill + Partners, L.P. (“Sandler O’Neill”), as our sales agent, an aggregate of 2.8 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate gross sales price of approximately $7.9 million and at an average gross sales price per share of approximately $2.80. Bancorp contributed $6.0 million of the common stock sales proceeds to the Bank in the second quarter. We paid Sandler O’Neill a commission equal to 2.75% of the gross sales price per share for shares sold under the Program. Shares of our common stock issued under the Program were sold pursuant to the Sales Agency Agreement, dated June 23, 2010, between us and Sandler O’Neill (the “Sales Agency Agreement”) and were issued pursuant to a prospectus supplement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 24, 2010, to the prospectus filed with the SEC on April 30, 2010 as part of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-166441). We terminated the Program and the Sales Agency Agreement on August 5, 2010.
The following table presents sales of common shares under the Program- as noted in the table below, 900 shares were sold in the third quarter of 2010 prior to the Program’s termination:
Trade date | Number of shares sold | | Average price per share |
6/24/2010 | 38,100 | | $ | 2.90 |
6/25/2010 | 2,765,208 | | | 2.80 |

Critical Accounting Policies
Management has identified as our most critical accounting policies, the calculation of our allowance for credit losses, valuation of other real estate owned (“OREO”), and estimates relating to income taxes. Each of these policies are discussed in our 2009 10-K under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Critical Accounting Policies.”
Overview
Second Quarter 2010 Financial Review. The Company’s operating results in second quarter 2010 included several favorable events that began last year. During second quarter 2010, we recorded:
A net loss of $3.8 million compared to a loss of $6.3 million in second quarter 2009;
A reduction of long term borrowings as a result of prepayment of $99.1 million of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings, which resulted in a prepayment fee of $2.3 million in the second quarter;
An average rate paid on total deposits of .64%, a decline from 1.23% in second quarter 2009;
A provision for credit losses of $7.8 million, a reduction of $3.6 million from $11.4 million for the same quarter in 2009;
Net loan charge-offs of $4.7 million, a decline from $11.3 million in second quarter 2009; and
OREO valuation adjustments and losses on sale of $.2 million, as compared to $3.7 million in second quarter 2009.
Management continued to proactively implement and execute certain strategies that have resulted in significant strengthening of the Company’s balance sheet, including:
Increasing the Bank’s total and tier 1 risk-based capital ratios to 17.10% and 15.84%, respectively, at June 30, 2010, up from 10.81% and 9.56% at June 30, 2009;
Improving the Bank’s leverage ratio from 8.39% a year ago, to 11.43% at June 30, 2010. The previously noted FHLB prepayment late in the second quarter will, all else being equal, contribute to further improvement in the Bank’s leverage ratio by September 30, 2010;
Decreasing real estate construction loan balances 63% from $127.4 million at June 30, 2009, to $74.2 million, or less than 5% of total loans, at June 30, 2010;
Reducing total nonperforming assets by 45% or $94.4 million over the past twelve months to $116.2 million at quarter end; and
Adding 2,100 deposit checking accounts during the second quarter of 2010 surpassing 100,000 accounts at June 30, 2010.
Results of Operations
Three and six months ended June, 2010 and 2009
Net Loss. Net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were $3.8 and $4.7 million, respectively, as compared to net losses of $6.3 and $29.9 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. The loss per diluted share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were $0.04 and $0.06, respectively, as compared to $0.41 and $1.91 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. For additional detail regarding calculation of our net loss per share in the current quarter and year to date, see Note 7 “Loss Per Share” of our interim financial statements included under Item 1 of this report.

3 Interest earned on nontaxable securities has been computed on a 35% tax equivalent basis. The tax equivalent basis adjustment for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, was $.30 million and $.37 million, respectively, and $.32 million for three months ended March 31, 2010.

Second quarter 2010 net interest income of $18.9 million declined $1.3 million from the same quarter in 2009. This decline included a $2.3 million FHLB prepayment fee in connection with prepaying $99.1 million of FHLB borrowings. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $19.2 million for the current quarter, down from $20.6 million in the same quarter of 2009. Average interest earning assets increased $117.0 million, or 5.0%, to $2.48 billion in the second quarter of 2010 from $2.36 billion for the same period in 2009, while average interest bearing liabilities decreased $58.2 million, or 3.1%, to $1.84 billion.
The second quarter 2010 net interest margin of 3.11% compressed 39 basis points from second quarter 2009. Without the prepayment fee of $2.3 million, the net interest margin would have been 3.48%, substantially unchanged from second quarter 2009. The considerable year-over-year shift in average earning assets from higher yielding loan balances to cash equivalents and investment securities balances, which collectively earned 317 basis points less than the loan portfolio, was substantially offset by a 73 basis points reduction in the rate paid on interest bearing deposits from the same quarter of 2009. Reflecting an underlying positive trend, the year-over-year second quarter spread between the yields earned on loans and rates paid on deposits expanded 86 basis points. As a result of lower FHLB borrowings and current market conditions, we anticipate the third quarter net interest margin will improve over the second quarter margin even excluding the effects of the FHLB prepayment fee.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $39.5 million, a decrease of $.8 million from the same period last year reflecting the impact of the FHLB prepayment fee and the shift in average earning assets from higher yielding loans to cash equivalents.
At June 30, 2010, we remain slightly asset sensitive over the next twelve month measurement period, meaning that earning assets mature or reprice more quickly than interest bearing liabilities over this period. Whether we will be able to continue recent positive trends in our net interest margin will depend on our ability to generate new loans while continuing to control our costs of funds, both of which will depend on economic conditions and interest rate trends. For more information see the discussion under the heading “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our 2009 10-K.
Provision for Credit Losses. Bancorp recorded provision for credit losses for the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 of $7.8 million and $11.4 million, respectively. The Company continued to experience a reduction in loan net charge-offs, particularly in the real estate construction category. The provision for credit losses was $15.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $34.5 million in the same period last year. Whether we will be able to continue the trend of decreasing provision for credit losses will depend primarily on economic conditions and the interest rate environment, as an increase in interest rates could put pressure on the ability of our borrowers to repay loans. For more information, see the discussion under the subheading “Allowance for Credit Losses and Net Loan Charge-offs” below.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income of $9.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, increased $3.6 million from $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to a $3.5 million reduction in OREO valuation adjustments and gains or losses associated with OREO dispositions. OREO valuation adjustments of $1.3 million included a $.5 million write down of OREO to comply with a DFCS requirement that all OREO properties be written down by 5% each calendar year independent of the properties’ appraised value. Future financial results will be heavily dependent on the Company's ability to dispose of its OREO properties quickly and at prices that are in line with current expectations. Excluding the effects of OREO valuation adjustments and gains or losses on OREO dispositions, the Company’s noninterest income increased $.2 million. The $.5 million or 22% growth in payment system revenues and $.2 million or 20% increase in trust and investment services revenues more than offset the $.5 million decline in gains on sales of loans.
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $16.0 million compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to a $6.2 million decrease in losses from OREO valuation adjustments and net losses associated with disposing OREO property. The following table illustrates the components and change in noninterest income for the periods shown:

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $22.9 million, a decrease of $2.3 million compared to $25.2 million for the same period in 2009. The primary factors in this decline were a $1.2 million special FDIC assessment that increased other noninterest expense in the second quarter last year and lower OREO, equipment, and professional expenses in the most recent quarter. Personnel cost remained unchanged over the two periods while payment system related expenses grew $.2 million or 21% related to increased transaction activity.
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $44.0 million, a decrease of $16.6 million compared to $60.6 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease in noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 was primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge during the first quarter of 2009. We continue to make efforts to increase operating efficiencies and control expenses without negative effects on our customers. We expect our noninterest expenses will continue to be affected by expenses associated with elevated levels of nonperforming assets.

Changing business conditions, increased costs in connection with retention of, or a failure to retain key employees, lower loan production volumes causing deferred loan origination costs to decline, or a failure to manage our operating and control environments could adversely affect our ability to limit expense growth in the future.
Income Taxes. The Company recorded an income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2010, of $1.7 million, primarily due to adjustments made to the Company’s 2009 tax estimates in conjunction with finalizing its 2009 income tax return, compared to a tax benefit of $4.1 during the second quarter of 2009. For the six months period ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $.9 million compared to a tax benefit of $14.5 million in the first six months of 2009. The Company received a tax refund of $27.9 million in the second quarter of 2010 after filing its 2009 tax return.
As of June 30, 2010, the Company maintained a valuation allowance of $22.8 million against the deferred tax asset balance of $27.7 million, for a net deferred tax asset of $4.9 million. This amount represented a $1.8 million increase from March 31, 2010. The $1.8 million increase in the net deferred tax asset was recognized as an income tax benefit and was the result of a $4.6 million increase in the gross unrealized gain in the Company’s investment portfolio during the second quarter 2010. The Company’s future net deferred tax asset and income tax provision or benefit will continue to be impacted by changes in the gross unrealized gain on the Company’s investment portfolio.

Balance Sheet Overview
Balance sheet highlights are as follows:
- Total assets were $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2010, down from $2.7 billion at December 31, 2009;
- Total loans decreased to $1.6 billion, a decline of 7% or $123 million from the balance at December 31, 2009, primarily due to declines of $58 million or 16% in commercial loan balances, $25 million or 25% in real estate construction loan balances, and $25 million or 3% in commercial real estate loan balances;
- The combined balance of total cash and cash equivalents and investment securities was $815 million at June 30, 2010, a reduction of $50 million since year end 2009 but an increase of $297 million from June 30, 2009;
- Total deposits decreased to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2010, a $143 million or 7% decline since year end 2009, which was primarily due to planned contraction in time deposit balances, and which contributed to our overall decline in cost of funds.
Our balance sheet management efforts are focused on continuing to reduce nonperforming assets, maintaining a strong capital position, retaining sufficient liquidity, and limiting loan concentrations and include efforts to:
- Continue to resolve nonaccrual loans, and dispose of OREO properties, including potential loan sales;
- Shift our earning asset mix towards loan balances by increasing loan production within our concentration parameters to targeted customer segments;
- Manage the size of our balance sheet and maintain regulatory capital ratios at high levels until we have more certainty regarding economic conditions; and
- Prudently reduce excess liquidity, in part by reducing or eliminating existing higher cost funding categories, including wholesale term deposits.
We continue to expect further contraction in our construction loan portfolio given continued high unemployment in our markets and decreased demand for new homes and commercial properties, and our efforts to reduce nonaccrual loan balances. We expect to continue a cautious approach to lending in the commercial construction, non-owner occupied term commercial real estate and housing related commercial sectors. Our ability to achieve loan growth will be dependent on many factors, including the effects of competition, economic conditions in our markets, health of the real estate market, retention of key personnel and valued customers, and our ability to close loans in the pipeline.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Total cash and cash equivalents declined $134.2 million or 44% since December 31, 2009. This occurred primarily as a consequence of the second quarter prepayment of $99.1 million in FHLB borrowings originally scheduled to mature between September 2010 and May 2012.

At June 30, 2010, the estimated fair value of the investment portfolio was $646.2 million, compared to $562.3 million at 2009 year end, an increase of 14.9% or $84.0 million. The net unrealized gain on the investment portfolio was $6.9 million at June 30, 2010, as compared to a net unrealized loss of $2.3 million at year end 2009. Higher unrealized gains in the Company’s mortgage-backed securities portfolio due to declining market interest rates led to the current unrealized net gain in the investment portfolio.
The investment portfolio increased $276.3 million since June, 2009. Over the past twelve months, the Company invested cash from loan repayments and capital raising activities primarily in mortgage-backed securities and U.S. Government agency securities. These securities were purchased to manage the Company’s interest rate sensitivity position while providing sufficient cash flows for future loan growth. The expected duration of the investment securities portfolio was relatively short at 1.8 years at June 30, 2010.

The Bank’s total loan portfolio was $1.60 billion at June 30, 2010, declines of $122.8 million or 7% since year end 2009 and $315.0 million or 16% from a year ago. The declines reflect the prolonged weakness of the economy which continues to negatively impact loan demand as well as the Company’s on-going efforts to reduce exposure in selective loan segments. As a result, the real estate construction loan portfolio contracted $127.4 million or 63% over the past 12 months and measured 5% of total loans at quarter end compared to 11% at June 30, 2009. The Company also continued to exit a number of higher risk rated commercial loans in the most recent quarter, which contributed to the $116.7 million or 27% contraction in the commercial loan category from June 30 a year ago. Additionally, commercial credit line commitment utilization at most recent quarter end remained low compared to historical levels.

Interest and fees earned on our loan portfolio are our primary source of revenue, and it will be very important that we improve loan originations and increase loan balances in order to increase overall revenues. With the Company’s strong capital and liquidity positions, we are hopeful the economy will allow for an increased level of prudent loan originations to qualified borrowers throughout the remainder of 2010.
At June 30, 2010, the Bank had outstanding loans of $4.5 million to persons serving as directors, executive officers, principal stockholders and their related interests. These loans, when made, were on substantially the same terms, including interest rates, maturities and collateral, as comparable loans made to other customers of the Bank. At June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, Bancorp had no bankers’ acceptances.
Below is a discussion of our loan portfolio by category.

At June 30, 2010, total commitments for commercial lines and loans were $571.2 million down from $640.7 million as of December 31, 2009. The outstanding balance of commercial loans and lines was $312.2 million or approximately 19% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. The total commercial lines and loans balance decreased by $57.9 million or 16% from $370.1 million at year end 2009.
At June 30, 2010, commercial lines of credit accounted for $188.3 million or 60% of total outstanding commercial loans and lines, while commercial term loans accounted for $123.9 million or 40% of the total. Over the past 12 months, commercial line utilization declined from 48% to 42% or towards the low end of our customer’s utilization range over the past few years.
The Company has elected to limit new loan originations to customers in certain sectors, including businesses related to the housing industry, and exit certain high risk client relationships. However, in terms of our long term strategy we expect the commercial loan portfolio to be an important contributor to growth in future revenues and we expect that the capital raised over the past year will support our efforts to strategically pursue opportunities in targeted commercial lending segments.

Real Estate Construction. At June 30, 2010, the balance of real estate construction loans was $74.2 million, down $25.1 million, or 25%, from $99.3 million at December 31, 2009. Total real estate construction loans represented less than 5% of the total loan portfolio at the end of the second quarter, down from 6% at December 31, 2009 and 11% a year ago.
Until the excess supply and market demand for new homes is more in balance, there will be limited demand for new residential construction loans in the market place. Limited financing for vertical construction may be made available, particularly under existing commitments to certain builders.
Additional detail regarding construction and land loans is provided in the tables below. Land loans are carried in the Bank’s residential mortgage and commercial real estate portfolios, depending on the purpose of the loan, but such loans are included below due to their relationship to construction loans generally.

In terms of the total combined construction and land loan portfolio, $55.8 million or 53% was for vertical construction purposes, with the land component at 30% and site development at 17%. Vertical construction accounted for the majority of the loans within both the residential and commercial categories. At June 30, 2010, land loans represented approximately 2% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. Also, at the end of the second quarter 2010, the Bank was within the Interagency Guidelines for Real Estate Lending and the Commercial Real Estate Lending Joint Guidance policy guidelines which set forth a 100% limit for real estate construction lending relative to the sum of Tier 1 capital and allowance for credit losses.

While delinquencies and charge-offs in the mortgage loan portfolios have been modest to date, we anticipate that the extended weakness in the economy coupled with persistent high unemployment in our markets may lead to increased delinquencies and charge-offs going forward.

The mix between owner occupied and non-owner occupied commercial real estate has remained fairly stable over the past year. At June 30, 2010, the Bank was within the Interagency Guidelines for Real Estate Lending and the Commercial Real Estate Lending Joint Guidance policy guidelines which set forth a 300% limit for certain commercial real estate lending relative to the sum of Tier 1 capital and allowance for credit losses, evidencing available capacity to prudently expand lending in this loan category.

As shown in the table above, the distribution of our commercial real estate portfolio at June 30, 2010 was fairly consistent with our branch presence in our operating markets.
The following table shows the commercial real estate portfolio by year of stated maturity:

Total commercial real estate loans | | $ | 837,033 | | 1,683 | | 100.0% |
| | | | | | | |
At June 30, 2010, the stated loan maturities for the remainder of 2010 and in 2011 totaled $81.8 million or a relatively modest 10% of the $837.0 million total commercial real estate portfolio. Commercial real estate markets continue to be vulnerable to financial and valuation pressures that may impact borrowers’ ability to perform consistent with terms and conditions of the borrower’s loan agreements and limit refinance options. Declining values of commercial real estate may adversely affect the ability of borrowers whose loans are maturing to satisfy applicable loan to value ratios required to renew the loans.

At June 30, 2010, total nonperforming assets were $116.2 million, or 4.6% of total assets, compared to $152.9 million, or 5.6%, at December 31, 2009, and $210.6 million or 8.1% a year ago. Nonperforming assets have declined for five consecutive quarters and were down 45% or $94.4 million from $210.6 million at June 30, 2009. The balance of total nonperforming assets at quarter end reflected write-downs totaling $63 million or 36% from the original principal loan balance compared to write-downs of 27% twelve months ago.
Over the past year total nonaccrual loans declined $48.1 million or 38% to $78.6 million at June 30, 2010. The reduction was largely due to the Company taking ownership of additional residential site development and construction properties related to loans which previously were on nonaccrual status, nonaccrual loan payoffs, and the disposition of certain large nonaccrual commercial loans. At June 30, 2010, the total nonaccrual loan portfolio had been written down 25% from the original principal balance compared to 21% at the end of the second quarter a year ago.

1 Land loans represent balances that are carried in the Company's residential real estate mortgage and commercial real estate loan portfolios. |
Total nonaccrual construction and land loans declined by $34.9 or over 50% from the prior year. This resulted from the significant reductions in the construction and land loan balances and a reduction in inflows of such additional nonaccrual loans. This was particularly the case with the residential construction and land loan segment, which has represented the majority of the nonaccrual balances. Reflecting the troubled housing market, $28.5 million of the $33.1 million in total nonaccrual construction and land loan balances were related to the residential category. Nonaccrual commercial construction and land loans were $4.6 million or 10.8% of such loans at June 30, 2010.

The Company’s OREO property disposition activities continued at a consistent pace. At June 30, 2010, the OREO portfolio consisted of 446 properties valued at $37.6 million. The quarter end OREO balance reflected write-downs totaling 52% from the original loan principal compared to 34% twelve months ago. As shown below, the largest segments of the OREO balance at June 30, 2010 were homes followed by residential site development projects. In the quarter just ended, the Company sold two residential site development properties with a total of 109 lots and a book value of $4.7 million for a $.4 million gain upon final disposition. The site development projects remaining in OREO as of quarter end are primarily located in Vancouver and Washougal, Washington and in Beaverton and Salem, Oregon. For more information regarding the Company’s OREO, see the discussion under the subheading “OREO” and “Critical Accounting Policies” included in Item 7 of the Company’s 2009 10-K.

Expenses from the acquisition, maintenance and disposition of OREO properties are included in other noninterest expense in the statements of loss. Our operating results will be impacted by our ability to dispose of OREO properties at prices that are in line with current valuation expectations. Continued decline in market values in our area would lead to additional valuation adjustments or losses upon final disposal, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

At June 30, 2010, the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $44.3 million, consisting of a $36.6 million formula allowance, no specific allowance, a $6.7 million unallocated allowance and a $1.0 million reserve for unfunded commitments. At December 31, 2009, our allowance for credit losses was $39.4 million, consisting of a $33.4 million formula allowance, no specific allowance, a $5.0 million unallocated allowance and a $1.0 million reserve for unfunded commitments. At June 30, 2010, the allowance for credit losses was 2.77% of total loans, an increase from 2.29% at December 31, 2009.
Overall, we believe that the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb losses in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2010, although there can be no assurance that future loan losses will not exceed our current estimates. The process for determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is critical to our financial results. Please see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our 2009 10-K.
Net Loan Charge-offs. For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, total net loan charge-offs were $4.7 million compared to $11.3 million in the same quarter ended in 2009. Second quarter 2010 year to date annualized net loan charge-offs to total average loans outstanding was 1.15%, or half of the 2.3% in the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

(1) Includes $2.3 million prepayment fee in connection with prepaying $99.1 million in FHLB borrowings in the second quarter 2010.
(2) Long-term borrowings include junior subordinated debentures.
Second quarter 2010 average total deposits of $2.05 billion declined 1% or $28.5 million from the same quarter in 2009. With excess balance sheet liquidity, we elected to reduce higher cost time deposit balances, which declined $183 million or 30% from average time deposit balances in the second quarter last year. Time deposits represented just 21% of the Company’s average total deposits in the most recent quarter. The combination of the Company’s favorable deposit mix and recent deposit pricing strategies helped reduce the average rate paid on total deposits to .64% in second quarter 2010, representing a decline of 59 basis points from 1.23% in same quarter 2009. Whether we will continue to be successful maintaining or growing our low cost deposit base will depend on various factors, including deposit pricing strategies, the effects of competition, client behavior, and regulatory limitations. In addition, the continued availability of the Transaction Account Guarantee Program (the “TAG Program”) providing expanded deposit insurance may affect our ability to retain deposit balances.
At June 30, 2010, brokered deposits totaled $59.1 million or 3% of period end deposits, of which $11.6 million were deposits obtained through the Bank's participation in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service ("CDARS") network and $47.5 million were wholesale brokered deposits, compared to $72.4 million in brokered deposits at December 31, 2009 and $100.2 million at June 30, 2009.
The average balance of FHLB borrowings increased by $15.3 million to $313.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010, from the same period last year. However, on June 30, 2010, the Company made a prepayment of $99.1 million in FHLB borrowings with an associated fee of $2.3 million.
At June 30, 2010, the balance of junior subordinated debentures issued in connection with our prior issuances of trust preferred securities was $51.0 million, unchanged from December 31, 2009. At June 30, 2010, the Company had a balance in other liabilities of $1.2 million in accrued and unpaid interest expense on these junior subordinated debentures, and it may not pay dividends on its capital stock until all such accrued but unpaid interest has been paid in full. Under the Written Agreement with the DFCS and FRB, we cannot resume interest payments on our trust preferred securities without prior regulatory approval. For additional detail regarding Bancorp’s outstanding debentures, see Note 10 in the financial statements included under Item 1 of this report.

Capital Resources
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”) and the FDIC have established minimum requirements for capital adequacy for bank holding companies and state non-member banks. For more information on these topics, see the discussions under the subheadings “Capital Adequacy Requirements” in the section “Supervision and Regulation” included in Item 1 of the Company’s 2009 10-K. The following table summarizes the capital measures of Bancorp and the Bank at June 30, 2010:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bank-level |
| West Coast Bancorp | | | West Coast Bank | | Guideline requirements |
(Dollars in thousands) | June 30, | | December 31, | | | June 30, | | December 31, | | Adequately | | Well |
| 2010 | | 2009 | | 2009 | | | 2010 | | 2009 | | 2009 | | Capitalized | | Capitalized |
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio | | 16.50 | % | | | 9.85 | % | | | 7.17 | % | | | | 15.84 | % | | | 9.56 | % | | | 14.11 | % | | 4.00% | | 6.00% |
Total risk-based capital ratio | | 17.76 | % | | | 11.10 | % | | | 9.13 | % | | | | 17.10 | % | | | 10.81 | % | | | 15.37 | % | | 8.00% | | 10.00% |
Leverage ratio | | 11.90 | % | | | 8.65 | % | | | 5.37 | % | | | | 11.43 | % | | | 8.39 | % | | | 10.57 | % | | 4.00% | | 5.00% |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total stockholders' equity | $ | 267,412 | | | $ | 168,666 | | | $ | 249,058 | | | | $ | 305,656 | | | $ | 212,852 | | | $ | 288,476 | | | | | |
Bancorp’s total capital ratio improved to 17.76% at June 30, 2010, up from 9.13% at December 31, 2009 and 11.10% at June 30, 2009, while Bancorp's Tier 1 capital ratio increased to 16.50% at current quarter end, from 7.17% at year end 2009 and 9.85% at June 30, 2009. Bancorp’s capital ratios improved dramatically over year end 2009 principally as a result of the mandatory conversion of Series A preferred stock issued in the Company's October 2009 private capital raise into 71.4 million common shares following receipt of shareholder approvals relating to the transactions. The $9.4 million in net proceeds from the successful rights offering completed during first quarter 2010 and $7.0 million in net proceeds from the recent discretionary equity issuance, along with a reduction in risk weighted assets over the past 12 months, also contributed to improved capital ratios at Bancorp.
The total capital ratio at the Bank improved to 17.10% at June 30, 2010, from 10.81% at June 30, 2009, while the Bank’s Tier 1 capital ratio increased to 15.84% from 9.56% over the same period. The leverage ratio at the Bank improved to 11.43% at June 30, 2010, from 8.39% at June 30, 2009. Improved capital ratios at the Bank were also attributable to the private capital raise in 2009, the rights offering and discretionary equity issuance program in 2010, as well as a decline in the balance of risk weighted assets over the past year. For more information regarding Bancorp’s discretionary equity issuance program, see the discussion under the subheading “Discretionary Equity issuance Program” in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section included in Item 2 of this report.
The total risk based capital ratios of Bancorp include $51 million of junior subordinated debentures which qualified as Tier 1 capital at June 30, 2010, under guidance issued by the Federal Reserve. As provided in the Dodd – Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, Bancorp expects to continue to rely on these junior subordinated debentures as part of its regulatory capital. However, it does not expect to issue additional junior subordinated debentures as any future issued junior subordinated debentures would not qualify as Tier 1 total capital under the same Act.
Bancorp’s stockholders’ equity was $267 million at June 30, 2010, up from $249 million at year end 2009 and $169 million at June 30, 2009.
Bancorp may take steps to raise additional capital in the future. To do so, Bancorp may offer and issue qualifying equity or debt instruments. Any equity or debt financing, if available at all, may be dilutive to existing shareholders or include covenants or other restrictions that limit the Company’s activities.

Liquidity and Sources of Funds
The Bank’s sources of funds include customer deposits, advances from the FHLB, maturities of investment securities, sales of “Available for Sale” securities, loan and OREO sales, loan repayments, net income, if any, loans taken out at the Federal Reserve discount window, and the use of Federal Funds markets. Scheduled loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows, unscheduled loan prepayments, and loan and OREO sales are not. Deposit inflows, loan and OREO sales, and unscheduled loan prepayments are influenced by general interest rate levels, interest rates available on other investments, competition, market and general economic conditions and other factors.
Deposits are our primary source of funds. Over the past 12 months our loan to deposit ratio declined from 91% at June 30, 2009 to 80% at June 30, 2010. This was mainly as a result of loans declining $315 million. Significantly lower loan balances combined with a significantly bolstered equity position caused the collective balance of interest bearing deposits in other bank and investment securities portfolio to grow $300 million to $769 million at June 30, 2010 and 32% of total earning assets. In light of the substantial liquidity position, a portion of which carried a higher cost of funds than amounts being earned and therefore has an adverse impact on net interest income and operating results, we reduced wholesale, internet, and other term deposits as well as FHLB borrowings during the most recent quarter.
At June 30, 2010, the Bank had outstanding borrowings of $164 million, against its $423 million in established borrowing capacity with the FHLB, as compared to $263 million against its $478 million in established borrowing capacity at December 31, 2009. The Bank’s borrowing facility is subject to collateral and stock ownership requirements. The Bank also had a Federal Funds line of credit agreement with a correspondent financial institution of $5 million at June 30, 2010, of which none was outstanding at June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009. The use of such Federal Funds lines is subject to certain conditions. The Bank had an available discount window credit line with the FRB of approximately $47 million at June 30, 2010, with no balance outstanding at either June 30, 2010, or December 31, 2009. As with the other lines, the FRB line is subject to collateral requirements, must be repaid within 90 days, and each advance is subject to prior FRB consent.
Under Bancorp’s Written Agreement with the DFCS and the FRB, it may not access dividends from the Bank without the consent of these agencies.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At June 30, 2010, the Bank had commitments to extend credit of $572 million, which was up 1% compared to $564 million at December 31, 2009. For additional information regarding off balance sheet arrangements and future financial commitments, see Note 8 “Commitments And Contingent Liabilities” in the financial statements included under Item 1 of this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no material change in the market risks disclosure under Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in the Company’s 2009 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information the Company must disclose in its reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and chief financial officer (“CFO”), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management has evaluated, with the participation and under the supervision of our CEO and CFO, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of such date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated an communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On June 24, 2009, the Company's subsidiary, West Coast Trust, was served with an Objection to Personal Representative's Petition and Petition for Surcharge of Personal Representative in Linn County Circuit Court. The petition was filed by the beneficiaries of the estate of Archie Q. Adams, for which West Coast Trust acts as the personal representative. The petitioners allege a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to West Coast Trust's prior sale of real property owned by the Adams estate and sought relief in the form of a surcharge to West Coast Trust of $215,573,115.60, the amount of the alleged loss to the estate. The Company believes the petition is without merit.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Continuing economic problems or a sluggish recovery in the markets we serve may adversely affect our ability to achieve a return to earnings and could increase the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio.
Substantially all of our loans and loan opportunities are to businesses and individuals in our markets in Oregon and Washington. The economy in this region has been severely impacted by the same challenges facing the economy nationally, and this region has seen particularly severe increases in unemployment and declines in the residential and commercial real estate markets. The local economy has shown signs of improvement similar to those seen nationally, although the Pacific Northwest has historically been slower to recover from recessionary periods than other parts of the national economy. There are signs that may be true again. Any further deterioration in economic conditions or failure to recover in the markets in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and prospects for a return to earnings and could result in the following consequences:
sluggish loan demand and fewer loan opportunities to qualified borrowers;
reduced demand for banking products and services, including deposit services;
continued reduced or even lower levels of economic activity at our business customers;
elevated borrower risk profiles that apply upward pressure on provision for credit losses;
increased loan delinquencies; and
further declines in collateral values.
Recent legislative and required regulatory initiatives will impose restrictions and requirements on financial institutions that could have an adverse effect on our business.
The United States Congress, the Treasury Department and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation have taken several steps to support the financial services industry that have included certain well publicized programs, such as the Troubled Asset Relief Program, as well as programs enhancing the liquidity available to financial institutions and increasing insurance available on bank deposits. These programs have provided an important source of support to many financial institutions. Partly in response to these programs and the current economic climate, the President signed on July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Few provisions of the Act are effective immediately with various provisions becoming effective in stages. Many of the provisions require governmental agencies to implement rules over the next 18 months. These rules will increase regulation of the financial services industry and impose restrictions on the ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices. These rules will, as examples, impact the ability of financial institutions to charge certain banking and other fees, allow interest to be paid on demand deposits, impose new restrictions on lending practices and require depository institution holding companies to maintain capital levels at levels not less than the levels required for insured depository institutions. We cannot predict the substance or impact of pending or future legislation or regulation. Compliance with such legislation or regulation may, among other effects, significantly increase our costs, limit our product offerings and operating flexibility, require significant adjustments in our internal business processes, and possibly require us to maintain our regulatory capital at levels above historical practices.
The Bank derives overdraft fee income from its customer’s participation in the Bank’s overdraft service program for ATM and one-time debit card transactions. If customer’s elect not to opt-in to participate in the Bank’s program, overdraft fee income may be negatively affected.
Recent amendments to Regulation E require the customer to opt-in to participate in the Bank’s overdraft service program. The mandatory compliance date for the Regulation E amendments was July 1, 2010, provided the Bank may continue to assess overdraft service fees or charges on existing customer accounts prior to August 15, 2010 without obtaining the customer’s affirmative consent. Although the majority of our customers have elected to opt-in, we are not able to predict future customer behavior. If customers do not elect to participate in our overdraft protection program, an important source of noninterest income may be negatively affected.
- 51 -
A large percentage of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate, in particular commercial real estate. Continued deterioration in the real estate market or other segments of our loan portfolio would lead to additional losses.
As of June 30, 2010, approximately 79% of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate, the majority of which is commercial real estate. As a result of increased levels of commercial and consumer delinquencies and declining real estate values, we have experienced high levels of net charge-offs and provision for credit losses. Continued increases in commercial and consumer delinquency levels or continued declines in real estate market values would require increased net charge-offs and increases in the allowance for credit losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects. In addition, continued deterioration in the credit quality of loans secured by real estate could result in loans that we have restructured becoming delinquent and classified as non-accrual loans.
We continue to hold and acquire a significant amount of OREO properties, which has led to increased operating expenses and vulnerability to additional declines in real property values.
We foreclose on and take title to the real estate serving as collateral for many of our loans as part of our business. During 2009 and the first six months of 2010, we continued to acquire a significant amount of OREO. At June 30, 2010, the Bank had 446 OREO properties with an aggregate book value of $37.6 million. Large OREO balances have led to significantly increased expenses as we have incurred costs to manage and dispose of these properties and, in certain cases, complete construction of structures prior to sale. We expect that our operating results in 2010 will continue to be negatively affected by expenses associated with OREO, including personnel costs, insurance and taxes, completion and repair costs, and valuation adjustments, as well as by the funding costs associated with assets that are tied up in OREO. Any further decrease in market prices of real estate in our market areas may lead to additional OREO write downs, with a corresponding expense in our income statement. We evaluate OREO property values periodically and write down the carrying value of the properties if the results of our evaluations require it.
To reduce our level of non-performing loans, we may elect to sell loans to third parties, which could result in losses for the Bank.
We may elect to sell loans or packages of loans to third parties. Such sales may be at prices below the carrying value of the loans, which would require the immediate recognition of additional losses and reduce our capital levels.
The value of the securities in our investment securities portfolio may be negatively affected by continued disruptions in securities markets.
The market for some of the investment securities held in our portfolio has been volatile over the past two years. Our assessment of the impairment of investment securities considers several uncertain and qualitative factors, including, without limitation, the length of time and extent to which the fair value of a particular security has been less than cost, the financial condition and prospects of the issuer over varying time horizons, expected future cash flows and anticipated timing of such cash flows, and our intent and ability to retain a particular investment long enough to recover value in the future. There can be no assurance that the declines in market value associated with these disruptions in the marketplace will not result in accounting charges that could have a material adverse effect on our net income and capital levels. Our corporate securities portfolio had a $4.8 million net unrealized loss at June 30, 2010. For more information concerning our investment securities and our investment portfolio, please refer to Note 3—“Investment Securities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2010.
