Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies	Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies

	Basis of presentation

	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cascade Bancorp (“Bancorp”), an Oregon chartered single bank holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of the Cascades (the “Bank”) (collectively, “the Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

	Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2014 presentation. None of these reclassifications have an effect on net income or net cash flows.

	Description of business

	The Bank conducts a general banking business, operating branches in Central, Southern, and Northwest Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area. Its activities include the usual lending and deposit functions of a commercial bank: commercial, construction, real estate, installment, credit card, and mortgage loans; checking, money market, time deposit, and savings accounts; internet banking and bill payment; automated teller machines, and safe deposit facilities. Additionally, the Bank originates and sells mortgage loans into the secondary market and offers trust and investment services.

	Method of accounting

	The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and prevailing practices within the banking industry. The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting which recognizes income and gains when earned and expenses and losses when incurred. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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 consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, gains, expenses, and losses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

	Segment reporting

	The Company is managed by legal entity and not by lines of business. The Company has determined that its operations are solely in the community banking industry and consist of traditional community banking services, including lending activities; acceptance of demand, savings, and time deposits; business services; and trust services. These products and services have similar distribution methods, types of customers and regulatory responsibilities. The performance of the Company is reviewed by the executive management team and the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on a monthly basis. All of the executive officers of Bancorp are members of the Bank's executive management team, and operating decisions are made based on the performance of the Company as a whole. Accordingly, disaggregated segment information is not required to be presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and the Company will continue to present one segment for financial reporting purposes.

	Cash and cash equivalents

	For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks (including cash items in process of collection), interest bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”) and Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”), and federal funds sold. Generally, any interest bearing deposits are invested for a maximum of 90 days. Federal funds are generally sold for one-day periods.
	The Bank maintains balances in correspondent bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. In addition, federal funds sold are essentially uncollateralized loans to other financial institutions. Management believes that its risk of loss associated with such balances is minimal due to the financial strength of the correspondent banks and counterparty financial institutions. The Bank has not experienced any losses in such accounts. At December 31, 2014, the Bank was not required to maintain any specific balances in correspondent bank accounts.

	Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information

	Noncash investing and financing activities consist of unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale, net of income taxes, issuance of nonvested restricted stock, and stock-based compensation expense, all as disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity; the net capitalization of originated mortgage-servicing rights, as disclosed in Note 6; and the transfer of approximately $0.2 million, $2.1 million, and $1.3 million of loans to other real estate owned (“OREO”) in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

	During 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company paid approximately $8.1 million, $3.0 million, and $5.1 million, respectively, in interest expense.

	During 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company made income tax payments of nil, $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

	Investment securities

	Investment securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity.

	Investment securities that are purchased and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in non-interest income. The Company had no trading securities during 2014, 2013, and 2012.

	Investment securities that are not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income or loss, net of income taxes. Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase.

	Investment securities are valued utilizing a number of methods including quoted prices in active markets, 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.

	Gains and losses on the sales of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Premiums and discounts on available-for-sale securities are recognized in interest income using the interest method generally over the period to maturity.

	In estimating other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses, management considers, among other things, (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) the impact of changes in market interest rates, and (4) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery of fair value. Declines in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be OTTI would result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The fair value of the security then becomes the new cost basis. The related write-downs to fair value for available-for-sale equity securities would be included in earnings as realized losses. For individual debt securities which the Company does not intend to sell and for which it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the OTTI losses would be evaluated and (1) the portion related to credit losses would be included in earnings as realized losses and (2) the portion related to market or other factors would be recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. Credit loss is recorded if the present value of cash flows is less than the amortized cost. For individual debt securities which the Company intends to sell or for which it more likely than not will not recover all of its amortized cost, the OTTI is recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security’s cost basis and its fair value at the consolidated balance sheet date. For individual debt securities for which credit loss has been recognized in earnings, interest accruals and amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts are suspended when the credit loss is recognized. Interest received after accruals have been suspended is recognized on a cash basis. Management believes that all unrealized losses on investment securities at December 31, 2014 and 2013 are temporary (see Note 4).

	FHLB stock

	As a member of the FHLB system, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum investment in FHLB stock based on specific percentages of its outstanding mortgages, total assets, or FHLB advances. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Bank met its minimum required investment. The Bank may request redemption at par value of any FHLB stock in excess of the minimum required investment; however, stock redemptions are at the discretion of the FHLB.

	As of December 31, 2014 the FHLB is considered “adequately capitalized” by its primary regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”). The FHLB continues to operate under a Consent Order entered into on October 25, 2010 with the FHFA, as amended on November 22, 2013, which requires the FHLB to take certain specified actions related to its business and operations. Under the amended Consent Order, the FHLB is precluded from repurchasing, redeeming and paying dividends on its capital stock without FHFA approval. However, in 2014 and 2013, the FHLB repurchased 8,812 and 3,722 shares of excess capital stock owned by the Bank for $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively. While the FHLB was classified as “adequately capitalized” as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company does not believe that its investment in FHLB stock is impaired and management has not recorded an impairment of the carrying value of FHLB stock as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. However, this analysis could change in the near-term if: 1) significant other-than-temporary losses are incurred on the FHLB’s mortgage-backed securities causing a significant decline in its regulatory capital status; 2) the economic losses resulting from credit deterioration on the FHLB’s mortgage-backed securities increases significantly; or 3) capital preservation strategies being utilized by the FHLB become ineffective.

	The FHFA approved the proposed merger of the FHLB with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines on December 22, 2014. The proposed merger remains subject to the satisfaction of specific closing conditions and the approval by the members of both the FHLB and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines. Although it is unclear what effect, if any, the proposed merger will have on the Bank’s FHLB investment requirement and borrowing capacity, the Company believes that the FHLB will continue to serve as a source of liquidity and that the proposed merger will not adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

	Loans

	Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by the reserve for loan losses, the undisbursed portion of loans in process, and deferred loan fees.

	Interest income on loans is accrued daily based on the principal amounts outstanding. Allowances are established for uncollected interest on loans for which the interest is determined to be uncollectible. Generally, all loans past due (based on contractual terms) 90 days or more are placed on non-accrual status and internally classified as substandard. Any interest income accrued at that time is reversed. Subsequent collections are applied proportionately to past due principal and interest, unless collectability of principal is in doubt, in which case all payments are applied to principal. Loans are removed from non-accrual status only when the loan is deemed current, and the collectability of principal and interest is no longer doubtful, or, on one-to-four family loans, when the loan is less than 90 days delinquent.

	The Bank charges fees for originating loans. These fees, net of certain loan origination costs, are deferred and amortized to interest income, on the level-yield basis, over the loan term. If the loan is repaid prior to maturity, the remaining unamortized deferred loan origination fee is recognized in interest income at the time of repayment.

	Reserve for loan losses

The reserve for loan losses represents management’s estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for loan losses is increased by charges to operating expense through the loan loss provision, and decreased by loans charged-off, net of recoveries. The reserve for loan losses requires complex subjective judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are uncertain. The reserve for loan losses is maintained at a level currently considered adequate to provide for potential loan losses based on management’s assessment of various factors affecting the loan portfolio.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013, management believes that the Company’s reserve for loan losses is at an appropriate level under current circumstances and prevailing economic conditions. However the reserve for loan losses is based on estimates and ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Therefore, management cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, the Company will not have significant losses in relation to the amount reserved. The level of the reserve for loan losses is also determined after consideration of bank regulatory guidance and recommendations and is subject to review by such regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to the reserve based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank.

Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses and considers qualitative factors including economic conditions and a range of other factors in its determination of the reserve. On an ongoing basis, the Company seeks to enhance and refine its methodology such that the reserve is at an appropriate level and responsive to changing conditions. In this regard, as of June 30, 2013, management implemented a homogeneous pool approach to estimating reserves for consumer and small business loans.

For purposes of assessing the appropriate level of the reserve for loan losses, the Company analyzes loans and commitments to loan, and the amount of reserves allocated to loans and commitments to loan in each of the following reserve categories: pooled reserves, specifically identified reserves for impaired loans, and the unallocated reserve. Also, for purposes of analyzing loan portfolio credit quality and determining the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses, the Company identifies loan portfolio segments and classes based on the nature of the underlying loan collateral.

Reserves for impaired loans are either specifically allocated within the reserve for loan losses or reflected as a partial charge-off of the loan balance. The Bank considers loans to be impaired when management believes that it is probable that either principal and/or interest amounts due will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, the estimated fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, or the value of a related guaranty. A significant portion of the Bank’s loans are either (1) collateralized by real estate, whereby the Bank primarily measures impairment based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, or the value of a related guaranty, or (2) are supported by underlying cash flows, whereby impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Accordingly, changes in such estimated collateral values or future cash flows could result in actual losses which differ from those estimated at the date of the consolidated balance sheets. Impairment measurements may also include consideration of information that becomes available subsequent to year-end. Small balance loans are reserved for based on the applicable loan segment and are reserved at the related pool rate (regardless of dollar amount). Generally, shortfalls on impaired small balance loans are charged off and the Bank does not establish specific reserves. Small balance loans are evaluated for impairment based on the borrower’s difficulty in making payments, an analysis of the borrower’s repayment capacity, collateral coverage, and shortfall, if any, created by reductions in payments or principal. Generally, the Bank evaluates a loan for impairment when a loan is determined to be adversely classified; small balance loans are monitored based on payment performance and are evaluated for impairment no later than 90 days past due.
The reserve for loan losses may include an unallocated amount based upon the Company’s judgment as to possible credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have been captured by historical loss experience, qualitative factors, or specific evaluations of impaired loans. Unallocated reserves may be adjusted for factors including, but not limited to, unexpected or unusual events, volatile market and economic conditions, effects of changes or seasoning in methodologies, regulatory guidance and recommendations, or other factors that may impact operating conditions and loss expectations. Management’s judgment as to unallocated reserves is determined in the context of, but separate from, the historical loss trends and qualitative factors described above.

Due to the judgment involved in the determination of the qualitative and unallocated portions of the reserve for loan losses, the relationship of these components to the total reserve for loan losses may fluctuate from period to period.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”)

A loan is classified as a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the borrower in the restructuring that the Company would not otherwise consider in the origination of a loan. In some situations a borrower may be experiencing financial distress, but the Company does not provide a concession. These modifications are not considered TDRs. In other cases, the Company might provide a concession, such as a reduction in interest rate, but the borrower is not experiencing financial distress. This could be the case if the Company is matching a competitor’s interest rate. These modifications would also not be considered TDRs. Finally, any renewals at existing terms for borrowers not experiencing financial distress would not be considered TDRs. A TDR loan is considered to be impaired and is individually evaluated for impairment. As with other impaired loans, a reserve for loan loss is estimated for each TDR based on the difference between expected future cash flows discounted at the original contractual rate and the current balance of the loan. For collateral dependent loans, expected future cash flows include the estimated market value less cost to sell.

Reserve for unfunded loan commitments

The Company maintains a separate reserve for losses related to unfunded loan commitments. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the Bank’s unfunded loan commitments. Management estimates the amount of probable losses related to unfunded loan commitments by applying the loss factors used in the reserve for loan loss methodology to an estimate of the expected amount of funding and applies this adjusted factor to the unused portion of unfunded loan commitments. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments totaled $0.4 million at both December 31, 2014 and 2013 and these amounts are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Increases (decreases) in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments are recorded in non-interest expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”)

Net MSRs were $2.2 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013. MSRs are capitalized at their allocated carrying value and amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated future net servicing revenue. MSRs are measured by allocating the carrying value of loans between the assets sold and interest retained, based upon the relative estimated fair value at date of sale. Impairment of MSRs is assessed based on the estimated fair value of servicing rights. Fair value is estimated using discounted cash flows of servicing revenue less servicing costs taking into consideration market estimates of prepayments as applied to underlying loan type, note rate, and term. Impairment adjustments, if any, are recorded through a valuation allowance. Fees earned for servicing mortgage loans are reported as income when the related mortgage loan payments are received.
Premises and equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or terms of the leases. Estimated useful lives of the assets range predominantly as follows: 3 to 15 years for land improvements, 5 to 39 years for buildings, 3 to 5 years for computers, and 3 to 15 years for furniture, fixtures, and other equipment. Amortization of leasehold improvements is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

As part of an ongoing review of the valuation and amortization of premises and equipment, the Company assesses the carrying value of such assets if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired. If this review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, the carrying value of the Company's premises and equipment would be reduced to its estimated fair value.

Core deposit intangibles (“CDI”)

CDI represents amounts recorded in business combinations or deposit purchase transactions related to the value of transaction-related deposits and the value of the customer relationships associated with the deposits.

The Company has CDI of $7.7 million and $0.5 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, resulting from a business combination in 2014 and branch acquisitions in 2013.

Bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”)

The Company has purchased BOLI to protect itself against the loss of certain key employees and directors due to death and as a source of long-term earnings to support certain employee benefit plans. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $28.3 million and $27.9 million, respectively, of separate account BOLI and $25.1 million and $8.7 million, respectively, of general account BOLI.

The cash surrender value of the separate account BOLI is the quoted market price of the underlying securities, further supported by a stable value wrap, which mitigates, but does not fully protect, the investment against changes in the fair market value depending on the severity and duration of market price disruption. The fair value of the general account BOLI is based on the insurance contract cash surrender value. The underlying funds within the separate account structure generated positive performance during 2014, 2013, and 2012. There can be no assurance that losses in excess of the stable value wrap protection will not occur on separate account BOLI in the future.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

OREO, acquired through foreclosure or deeds in lieu of foreclosure, is carried at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. When the property is acquired, any excess of the loan balance over the estimated net realizable value is charged to the reserve for loan losses. Holding costs, subsequent write-downs to net realizable value, if any, and any disposition gains or losses are included in non-interest expenses. The valuation of OREO is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in economic conditions. The valuation of OREO is also subject to review by federal and state bank regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to carrying amounts based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank. Management considers third-party appraisals, as well as independent fair market value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling OREO, in determining the estimated fair value of particular properties. In addition, as certain of these third-party appraisals and independent fair market value assessments are only updated on an annual basis, changes in the values of specific properties may have occurred subsequent to the most recent appraisals. Accordingly, the amounts of any such potential changes - and any related adjustments - are generally recorded at the time such information is received. OREO valuation adjustments have been recorded on certain OREO properties. These adjustments are recorded in OREO expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.
OREO, net of specific property valuation allowances, was $3.3 million, $3.1 million, and $6.6 million at December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.
Advertising

Advertising costs are generally charged to expense during the year in which they are incurred. Advertising expense was $0.9 million, $1.0 million, and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Income taxes

The provision (benefit) for income taxes is based on income and expenses as reported for consolidated financial statement purposes using the “asset and liability method” for accounting for deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision (credit) for income taxes.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets (“DTA”), management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the DTA will or will not be realized. The Company's ultimate realization of the DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

At both December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had a $0.1 million valuation allowance against its DTA due to reversal of substantially all of the Company's DTA valuation allowance at December 31, 2012 of $41.7 million and the reversal of certain previously written-off deferred tax benefits of $8.5 million resulting from a reassessment of the Company's Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 382 limitations and other analyses.

The DTA valuation allowance was established during 2009 due to uncertainty at the time regarding the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to fully realize the benefit of the net DTA. Based on its earnings performance trend, expected continued profitability and improvements in the Company's financial condition; management determined it was more likely than not that a significant portion of our DTA would be realized.

Deferred tax assets are recognized subject to management's judgment that realization is “more likely than not.” Uncertain tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize. An uncertain tax position is measured at the amount of benefit that management believes has a greater than 50% likelihood of realization upon settlement. Tax benefits not meeting our realization criteria represent unrecognized tax benefits. We account for interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company periodically enters into certain commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company enters into a variable-rate loan agreement with a customer in addition to a swap agreement. This swap agreement effectively converts the customer’s variable rate loan into a fixed rate. The Company then enters into a corresponding swap agreement with a third party in order to offset its exposure on the variable and fixed components of the customer agreement. As the interest rate swap agreements with the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB ASC, the instruments are marked to market in earnings. The Company recorded non-interest income of $1.8 million and $0.4 million related to swap fee income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. There was no impact to the statement of income for the year ending December 31, 2012. The fair value of the swap agreement assets and liabilities were $4.8 million and $4.8 million at December 31, 2014 and insignificant as of December 31, 2013. The notional amount of open interest rate swap agreements at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $82.9 million and $16.0 million.

Trust assets

Assets of the Bank’s trust department, other than cash on deposit at the Bank, are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, because they are not assets of the Bank. Assets (unaudited) totaling approximately $58.5 million and $59.6 million were held in trust as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Transfers of financial assets

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) 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 (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Loss contingencies

Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is deemed probable and an amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.

Cash dividend restriction

Payment of dividends by Bancorp and the Bank is subject to restriction by state and federal regulators and the availability of retained earnings (see Note 20).

Preferred stock

Bancorp may issue preferred stock in one or more series, up to a maximum of 5,000,000 shares. Each series shall include the number of shares issued, preferences, special rights, and limitations, all as determined by the Board. Preferred stock may be issued with or without voting rights, not to exceed one vote per share, except in certain circumstances and the shares of preferred stock will not vote as a separate class or series except as required by state law. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during a period, except those resulting from transactions with stockholders. The Company’s comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and the changes in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of investment securities available-for-sale, net of taxes.

New authoritative accounting guidance

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14. "Receivables- Troubled Debt Structurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure" ("ASU 2014-14"). ASU 2014-14 clarifies accounting and reporting for foreclosed mortgage loans when the loan is subject to a government guarantee. The provisions require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable recognized upon foreclosure if 1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; 2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and 3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. ASU 2014-14 is effective for annual period and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Adoption of ASU 2014-14 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 establishes a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries under U.S. GAAP, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate, construction and software industries. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this objective, the standard requires five basic steps: i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 with three transition methods available - full retrospective, retrospective and cumulative effect approach. Adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, "Receivables- Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure" ("ASU 2014-04"). The provisions of ASU 2014-04 clarify that when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. The provisions of ASU 2014-04 are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists" ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. No new recurring disclosures are required. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013 and are to be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

	Home Federal Bank ("Home")

	On May 16, 2014 (the "Home Acquisition Date"), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 23, 2013 (the "Merger Agreement"), between the Company and Home, Home merged with and into Cascade with Cascade continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger"). Immediately after the Merger, Home Federal Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Home, merged with and into Bank of the Cascades, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cascade, with Bank of the Cascades continuing as the surviving bank. The results of Home's operations are included in the Company's financial results beginning on the Home Acquisition Date.

	All of Home’s common stock was converted into the right to receive $8.43 in cash and 1.6772 shares of Cascade common stock. The conversion of Home’s common stock into Cascades common stock resulted in Cascade issuing 24,309,131 shares of its common stock.

	The Merger was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the Home Acquisition Date. Preliminary goodwill of $80.1 million was calculated as the purchase premium after adjusting for the fair value of net assets acquired and represents the value expected from the synergies created from combining the two banking organizations as well as the economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the two companies. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes as the Merger is accounted for as a tax-free exchange.

	In most instances, determining the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required us to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of those determinations relates to the valuation of acquired loans. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for business combinations, there was no carry-over of Home’s previously established reserve for loan losses.

	The following table provides a summary of the purchase price calculation as of the Home Acquisition Date and the identifiable assets purchased and the liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values. These fair value measurements are provisional based on third-party valuations that are currently under review and are subject to refinement for up to one year after the Home Acquisition Date based on additional information that may be obtained by us that existed as of the Home Acquisition Date.

AmericanWest Bank ("AWB") Branch Acquisition
On October 18, 2013, the Bank received required regulatory approval and completed its previously announced purchase of AWB's Klamath Falls, Oregon branch and the assumption of customer relationships, including deposits and selected loans of AWB's Bend and Redmond, Oregon branch offices. In total, the Bank acquired approximately $25.5 million of deposits, paying a deposit premium of 2.00% of the balance of core in-market deposits assumed, and approximately $1.6 million of performing loans for a cash purchase price of $2.8 million. The primary purpose of the acquisition was to expand the Company’s market share in the Central Oregon region.
The following is a condensed balance sheet disclosing the estimated fair value amounts of the acquired branches of AWB assigned to the major consolidated asset and liability captions at the acquisition date (dollars in thousands):


Cash and cash equivalents	$	22,828

Loans, net	1,635

Premises and equipment, net	475

Core deposit intangible	529

Other assets	19

Total assets	$	25,486


Deposits	$	25,485

Other liabilities	1

Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity	$	25,486

The core deposit intangible asset recognized as part of the business combination will be amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately 10 years.
The fair value of deposit accounts acquired from AWB was assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. Certificates of deposit were valued by comparing the contractual cost of the portfolio to a similar portfolio bearing current market rates.
Direct costs related to the AWB acquisition were expensed as incurred in the year ended December 31, 2013. These acquisition and integration expenses included technology and communications, occupancy and equipment, professional services and other noninterest expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred $0.2 million of expenses related to the AWB acquisition costs.

The unrealized losses on investments in U.S. Agency and non-agency MBS and U.S. Agency asset-backed securities are primarily due to elevated yield/rate spreads at December 31, 2014 and 2013 as compared to yield/rate relationships prevailing at the time specific investment securities were purchased. Management expects the fair value of these investment securities to recover as market volatility lessens and/or as securities approach their maturity dates. Accordingly, management does not believe that the above gross unrealized losses on investment securities are other-than-temporary. No impairment adjustments have been recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

Management intends to hold the investment securities classified as held-to-maturity until they mature, at which time the Company will receive full amortized cost value for such investment securities. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2014, management did not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above and believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities at December 31, 2014, by contractual maturity, are shown below (dollars in thousands). Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

(a) Originated loans are loans organically made through the Company's normal and customary origination process
(b) Acquired loans are loans acquired in the acquisition of Home, discussed elsewhere in this report, less acquired covered loans
(c) Acquired covered loans acquired in the acquisition of Home that are covered under FDIC loss share agreements

The following describes the distinction between originated, acquired and covered loan portfolios and certain significant accounting policies relevant to each of these portfolios.

Originated loans

Loans originated for investment are stated at their principal amount outstanding adjusted for partial charge-offs, the reserve for loan losses and net deferred loan fees and costs. Interest income on loans is accrued over the term of the loans. Interest is not accrued on loans where collectability is uncertain. Accrued interest on loans is presented in "Other assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Loan origination fees and certain direct costs incurred to extend credit are deferred and amortized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to the related loan yield.

Approximately 68.1% of the Bank’s originated loan portfolio at December 31, 2014 consisted of real estate-related loans including construction and development loans, residential mortgage loans, and commercial loans secured by commercial real estate. At December 31, 2014, approximately 72.8% of the Bank's total portfolio (inclusive of acquired and acquired covered loans) consisted of real estate-related loans as described above. The Bank's results of operations and financial condition are affected by general economic trends and in particular, the strength of the local residential and commercial real estate markets in Central, Southern and Northwest Oregon and the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area. Real estate values could be affected by, among other things, a worsening of national and local economic conditions, an increase in foreclosures, a decline in home sale volumes, and an increase in interest rates. Furthermore, the Bank may experience an increase in the number of borrowers who become delinquent, file for protection under bankruptcy laws, or default on their loans or other obligations to the Bank in the event of a sustained downturn in business and economic conditions generally or specifically in the principal markets in which the Bank does business. An increase in the number of delinquencies, bankruptcies, or defaults could result in a higher level of non-performing assets, net charge-offs, and loan loss provision. Management is targeting to reduce commercial real estate ("CRE") concentration over the long term, but real estate-related loans will remain a significant portfolio component due to the nature of the economies, businesses, and markets we serve.

In the normal course of business, the Bank may participate portions of loans to third parties in order to extend the Bank’s lending capability or to mitigate risk. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the portion of loans participated to third-parties (which are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) totaled $34.5 million and $11.3 million, respectively.

Acquired and acquired covered loans

Acquired and acquired covered loans are those purchased in the Home acquisition (See Note 2 - "Business Combinations" for further information). These loans were recorded at estimated fair value at the Home Acquisition Date. The fair value estimates for acquired and acquired covered loans is based on expected prepayments, charge offs and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows. The net fair value adjustment to the acquired and acquired covered loans was a reduction of $6.0 million, representing a valuation adjustment for interest rate and credit which will be accreted over the life of the loans (approximately 10 years).

Of the loans acquired on the Home Acquisition Date and still held at December 31, 2014, $9.1 million or 2.9% were graded substandard. Of that amount $2.9 million or 32.2% of the substandard loans were covered under a loss share agreement with the FDIC. With the amount of classified loans acquired being nominal, all loans acquired are treated in a manner consistent with originated loans for credit risk management and accounting purposes.

As of December 31, 2014, $40.2 million or 13.0% of the $309.9 million in acquired and acquired covered loans were covered under loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. The agreements were entered into in September 2009 and September 2010 between the FDIC and Home. The loss sharing agreements have limited terms (10 years for net losses on single-family residential real estate loans, as defined by the FDIC, five years for losses on non-residential real estate loans, as defined by the FDIC, and an additional three years with respect to recoveries on non-residential real estate loans). After the expiration of the loss sharing agreements, the Company will not be indemnified for losses and related expenses on covered assets. When the loss sharing agreements expire, the Company's and the Bank's risk-based capital ratios will be reduced. While the agreements are in place, the covered assets receive a 20% risk-weighting. When the agreements expire, the risk-weighting for previously covered assets will most likely increase to 100%, based on current regulatory capital definitions. Nearly all of the assets remaining in the covered asset portfolios are non-single family covered assets. Therefore, most of the covered assets were no longer indemnified after September 2014 or will no longer be indemnified after September 2015. Only $9.1 million of the acquired covered loans were graded substandard by the Company after the consummation of the Home acquisition. With the amount of classified loans covered under these agreements being nominal, amounts that may be due to or due from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements will be accounted for on a cash basis.

A net loss share payable was recorded at the Home Acquisition Date which represents the estimated value of reimbursement the Company expects to pay to the FDIC for recoveries net of incurred losses on covered loans. These expected reimbursements were recorded as part of covered loans in the June 30, 2014 consolidated balance sheets. Upon the determination of an incurred loss or recovery, the loss share receivable/payable is changed by the amount due to or due from the FDIC.

Changes in the loss share payable (receivable) associated with covered loans for the three month period ended December 31, 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Three months ended
	December 31, 2014
Balance at beginning of period	$	(319	)
Paid to FDIC	319

Increase due to impairment	144

FDIC reimbursement	(677		)
Shared loss expenses	84

Balance at end of period	$	(449	)

Reserve for loan losses

The reserve for loan losses represents management’s estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for loan losses is increased by charges to operating expense through the loan loss provision, and decreased by loans charged-off, net of recoveries. The reserve for loan losses requires complex subjective judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are uncertain. The reserve for loan losses is maintained at a level currently considered adequate to provide for potential loan losses based on management’s assessment of various factors affecting the loan portfolio.

However, the reserve for loan losses is based on estimates and actual losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Therefore, management cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, the Company will not have significant losses in relation to the amount reserved. The level of the reserve for loan losses is also determined after consideration of bank regulatory guidance and recommendations and is subject to review by such regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to the reserve based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank.

For purposes of assessing the appropriate level of the reserve for loan losses, the Company analyzes loans and commitments to loan, and the amount of reserves allocated to loans and commitments to loan in each of the following reserve categories: pooled reserves, specifically identified reserves for impaired loans, and the unallocated reserve. Also, for purposes of analyzing loan portfolio credit quality and determining the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses, the Company identifies loan portfolio segments and classes based on the nature of the underlying loan collateral.

The increase in the reserve for loan losses from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2014 was related to recoveries during the period. The unallocated reserve for loan losses at December 31, 2014 has increased by $4.6 million from the balance at December 31, 2013. The Company has determined the level of unallocated reserve is appropriate based upon the lack of seasoning with respect to its methodology enhancement, which related to estimating reserves against certain loan pools as opposed to reserving on a loan by loan basis for such loans. In addition, the unallocated reflects the lack of seasoning as to credit quality performance of its recently acquired Home and shared national credits portfolios. Management believes that the amount of unallocated reserve for loan losses is appropriate and will continue to evaluate the amount going forward.

Acquired reserve for loan losses

The fair value estimates for acquired and acquired covered loans are based on expected prepayments, charge offs, and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows. The net fair value adjustment to the acquired and acquired covered loans was $6.0 million, representing a valuation adjustment for interest rate and credit quality. The credit component of the fair value adjustment not accreted at any point in time represents the estimated reserve for loan losses for acquired loans. If the Company determines that this amount is insufficient a provision to the reserve for loan losses will be made.

Covered reserve for loan losses

The reserve for loan losses on covered loans is estimated similarly to acquired loans as described above except any increase to the reserve from a recovery or a decrease in the reserve from a charge-off is partially offset by an increase in the loss share payable (or receivable) for the portion of the losses recoverable and recoveries payable to the FDIC under the loss sharing agreements. No allowance was estimated at year-end given management's judgment that purchase discounts adequately address the estimated losses in the acquired loans.

The Company uses credit risk ratings, which reflect the Bank’s assessment of a loan’s risk or loss potential, for purposes of assessing the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses. The Bank’s credit risk rating definitions along with applicable borrower characteristics for each credit risk rating are as follows:

Acceptable

The borrower is a reasonable credit risk and demonstrates the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations. Loans are generally made to companies operating in an economy and/or industry that is generally sound. The borrower tends to operate in regional or local markets and has achieved sufficient revenues for the business to be financially viable. The borrowers financial performance has been consistent in normal economic times and has been average or better than average for its industry.

A loan can also be considered Acceptable even though the borrower may have some vulnerability to downturns in the economy due to marginally satisfactory working capital and debt service cushion. Availability of alternate financing sources may be limited or nonexistent. In some cases, the borrower’s management, may have limited depth or continuity but is still considered capable. An adequate primary source of repayment is identified while secondary sources may be illiquid, more speculative, less readily identified, or reliant upon collateral liquidation. Loan agreements will be well-defined, including several financial performance covenants and detailed operating covenants. This category also includes commercial loans to individuals with average or better than average capacity to repay.

Pass-Watch

Loans are graded Pass-Watch when temporary situations increase the level of the Bank’s risk associated with the loan, and remain graded Pass-Watch until the situation has been corrected. These situations may involve one or more weaknesses in cash flow, collateral value or indebtedness that could, if not corrected within a reasonable period of time, jeopardize the full repayment of the debt. In general, loans in this category remain adequately protected by the borrower’s net worth and paying capacity, or pledged collateral.

Special Mention

A Special Mention credit has potential weaknesses that may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the loan or leave the Bank inadequately protected at some future date. Loans in this category are deemed by management of the Bank to be currently protected but reflect potential problems that warrant more than the usual management attention but do not justify a Substandard classification.

Substandard

Substandard loans are those inadequately protected by the net worth and paying capacity of the obligor and/or by the value of the pledged collateral, if any. Substandard loans have a high probability of payment default or they have other well-defined weaknesses. They require more intensive supervision and borrowers are generally characterized by current or expected unprofitable operations, inadequate debt service coverage, inadequate liquidity, or marginal capitalization. Repayment may depend on collateral or other credit risk mitigants.

CRE and construction loans are classified Substandard when well-defined weaknesses are present which jeopardize the orderly liquidation of the loan. Well-defined weaknesses include a project’s lack of marketability, inadequate cash flow or collateral support, failure to complete construction on time, and/or the project’s failure to fulfill economic expectations. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

In addition, Substandard loans also include impaired loans. Impaired loans bear the characteristics of Substandard loans as described above, and the Company has determined it does not expect timely payment of all contractually due interest and principal. Impaired loans may be adequately secured by collateral.

During the year ended December 31, 2014 the Bank reduced loans classified as special mention and substandard in the originated portfolio by $18.2 million, while total loans classified as special mention and substandard increased $13.1 million as a result of the loans acquired in the Home merger. Remediation on the originated portfolio was accomplished through credit upgrades mainly owing to improved obligor cash flows as well as payoffs/paydowns, and/or sales.

TDRs

The Company allocated $0.1 million and $0.8 million of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. TDRs involve the restructuring of terms to allow customers to mitigate the risk of foreclosure by meeting a lower loan payment requirement based upon their current cash flow. As indicated above, TDRs may also include loans to borrowers experiencing financial distress that renewed at existing contractual rates, but below market rates for comparable credit quality. The Company has been actively utilizing these programs and working with its customers to improve obligor cash flow and related prospect for repayment. Concessions may include, but are not limited to, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, deferral of interest payments, extension of the maturity date, and other actions intended to minimize potential losses to the Company. For each commercial loan restructuring, a comprehensive credit underwriting analysis of the borrower’s financial condition and prospects of repayment under the revised terms is performed to assess whether the new structure can be successful and whether cash flows will be sufficient to support the restructured debt. Generally, if the loan is on accrual at the time of restructuring, it will remain on accrual after the restructuring. After six consecutive payments under the restructured terms, a nonaccrual restructured loan is reviewed for possible upgrade to accruing status.

Typically, once a loan is identified as a TDR it will retain that designation until it is paid off, because restructured loans generally are not at market rates following restructuring. Under certain circumstances a TDR may be removed from TDR status if it is determined to no longer be impaired and the loan is at a competitive interest rate. Under such circumstances, allowance allocations for loans removed from TDR status would be based on the historical allocation for the applicable loan grade and loan class. Consistent with accounting principles, acquired loans previously identified by Home as TDRs were marked to fair value at the acquisition date and accordingly are not included as TDRs on the Company’s books.

The following table presents, by portfolio segment, information with respect to the Company’s loans that were modified and recorded as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 (dollars in thousands):

There were no loans modified and recorded as TDRs during the year ended December 31, 2014. There was no change in the pre- and post-TDR outstanding recorded investment for loans restructured during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012. The increase in the outstanding recorded investment of loans modified and recorded as TDRs during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily the result of remediation to bolster cash flow of stressed loans, and includes the restructuring of a large CRE credit in the Bank’s loan portfolio during the first quarter of 2013.

At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no remaining commitments to lend on loans accounted for as TDRs.

The following table presents, by portfolio segment, the post modification recorded investment for TDRs restructured during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and by the primary type of concession granted (dollars in thousands).

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill and other intangible assets	Goodwill and other intangibles assets

	As presented in Note 2, the Company recorded $80.1 million of goodwill in connection with the acquisition of Home in 2014. In accordance with the Intangibles - Goodwill and Other topic of the FASB ASC, goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for potential impairment at the reporting unit level. Management analyzes its goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests in certain circumstances, such as upon material adverse changes in legal, business, regulatory and economic factors. An impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The Company performed an impairment assessment as of December 31, 2014 and concluded that there was no impairment.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivatives	Derivatives

	Derivative instruments are contracts between two or more parties that have a notional amount and an underlying variable, require no net investment and allow for the net settlement of positions. The notional amount serves as the basis for the payment provision of the contract and takes the form of units, such as shares or dollars. The underlying variable represents a specified interest rate, index, or other component. The interaction between the notional amount and the underlying variable determines the number of units to be exchanged between the parties and influences the market value of the derivative contract. The Company obtains dealer quotation to value its derivative contracts.

	The Company periodically enters into certain commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company provides the customer with a variable rate loan and enters into an interest rate swap in which the customer receives a variable rate payment in exchange for a fixed rate payment. The Company offsets its risk exposure by entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with a dealer counterparty for the same notional amount and length of term as the customer interest rate swap providing the dealer counterparty with a fixed rate payment in exchange for a variable rate payment. Generally, these instruments help the Company manage exposure to market risk and meet customer financing needs. Market risk represents the possibility that economic value or net interest income will be adversely affected by fluctuations in external factors such as market-driven interest rates and prices or other economic factors.

	The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to these agreements. Credit risk of the financial contract is controlled through the credit approval, limits, and monitoring procedures and management does not expect the counterparties to fail their obligations.

	In connection with the interest rate swaps between the Company and the dealer counterparties, the agreements contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations. Similarly, the Company could be required to settle its obligations under certain of its agreements if certain credit ratings fall below specified standards or if specific regulatory events occur, such as a publicly issued memorandum of understanding, cease and desist order, or a termination of insurance coverage by the FDIC.

	As of December 31, 2014, the notional values or contractual amounts and fair values of the Company's derivatives not designated in hedge relationships were as follows (dollars in thousands).

	Swap fee income, as included in noninterest income, was $1.8 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. No derivatives instruments were in place at 2012.

	The Company generally posts collateral against derivative liabilities in the form of cash. Collateral posted against derivative liabilities was $4.6 million and $0.3 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet and do not take into account the effects of master netting agreements. Master netting agreements allow the Company to settle all derivative contracts held with a single counterparty on a net basis and to offset net derivative position with related collateral where applicable.

	The Bank is a member of the FHLB. As a member, the Bank has a committed borrowing line of credit up to 20% of total assets, subject to the Bank pledging sufficient collateral and maintaining the required investment in FHLB stock. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Bank had outstanding borrowings under the committed lines of credit totaling $0 and $27.0 million. In June 2013, the Bank elected to prepay $60.0 million in FHLB advances bearing a weighted average interest rate of 3.17% to save in interest expense going forward. As a result of such early prepayments, the Company incurred prepayment penalties of $3.8 million. All outstanding borrowings and letters of credit with the FHLB are collateralized by a blanket pledge agreement on the Bank’s FHLB stock, any funds on deposit with the FHLB, certain investment securities, and certain loans. At December 31, 2014, the Bank had available borrowings with the FHLB of approximately $466.8 million, based on eligible collateral. There can be no assurance that future advances will be allowed by the FHLB.

	The $27.0 million of FHLB advances, bearing a weighted average interest rate of 0.25% at December 31, 2013 matured in January 2014.

	At December 31, 2014, the Bank had no borrowings outstanding with the FRB and had approximately $14.0 million in available short-term borrowings at FRB, collateralized by certain of the Bank’s loans and securities.

	As an additional source of liquidity, the Bank has federal fund borrowing agreements with correspondent banks aggregating approximately $90.0 million at December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these federal fund borrowing agreements.

	Off-balance sheet financial instruments

	In the ordinary course of business, the Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commitments under credit card lines of credit, and standby letters of credit. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The contractual amounts of these financial instruments reflect the extent of the Bank’s involvement in these particular classes of financial instruments. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Bank had no material commitments to extend credit at below-market interest rates.
	The Bank’s exposure to credit loss for commitments to extend credit, commitments under credit card lines of credit, and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Bank follows the same credit policies in underwriting and offering commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet financial instruments.

	A summary of the Bank’s off-balance sheet financial instruments which are used to meet the financing needs of its customers is approximately as follows at December 31, 2014 and 2013 (dollars in thousands):


		2014		2013
	Commitments to extend credit	$	371,871	$	245,906

	Commitments under credit card lines of credit	28,822		24,321

	Standby letters of credit	4,201		2,161

	Total off-balance sheet financial instruments	$	404,894	$	272,388


	Commitments to extend 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 fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank applies established credit related standards and underwriting practices in evaluating the creditworthiness of such obligors. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Bank upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.

	The Bank typically does not obtain collateral related to credit card commitments. Collateral held for other commitments varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate, and income-producing commercial properties.

	Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. In the event that the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third-party, the Bank would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Bank could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment was funded, the Bank would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. The Bank’s policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those involved in extending loans to customers. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

	The Bank considers the fees collected in connection with the issuance of standby letters of credit to be representative of the fair value of its obligations undertaken in issuing the guarantees. In accordance with GAAP related to guarantees, the Bank defers fees collected in connection with the issuance of standby letters of credit. The fees are then recognized in income proportionately over the life of the related standby letter of credit agreement. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Bank’s deferred standby letter of credit fees, which represent the fair value of the Bank’s potential obligations under the standby letter of credit guarantees, were insignificant to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
	Lease commitments

	The Bank leases certain land and facilities under operating leases, some of which include renewal options and escalation clauses. At December 31, 2014, the aggregate minimum rental commitments under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year were approximately as follows (dollars in thousands):


	2015	$	2,416

	2016	1,848

	2017	1,515

	2018	1,309

	2019	1,076

	Thereafter	5,712

		$	13,876


	Total rental expense was approximately $3.0 million in 2014, $2.1 million in 2013, and $2.1 million in 2012. The increase in 2014 over prior periods related to leases on Home acquired properties.

	Litigation

	The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014.

	Other

	The Bank is a public depository and, accordingly, accepts deposit funds belonging to, or held for the benefit of, the state of Oregon, political subdivisions thereof, municipal corporations, and other public funds. In accordance with applicable state law, in the event of default of one bank, all participating banks in the state collectively assure that no loss of funds is suffered by any public depositor. Generally, in the event of default by a public depository and to the extent sufficient collateral is unavailable to repay public funds, the assessment applicable to all public depositories is allocated on a pro rata basis in proportion to the maximum liability of each public depository as it existed on the date of loss. The Bank has pledged letters of credit issued by the FHLB which collateralizes public deposits not otherwise insured by the FDIC. At December 31, 2014, there was no liability associated with the Bank’s participation in this pool because all participating banks are presently required to fully collateralize uninsured Oregon public deposits, and there were no occurrences of an actual loss on Oregon public deposits at such participating banks. The maximum future contingent liability is dependent upon the occurrence of an actual loss, the amount of such loss, the failure of collateral to cover such a loss, and the resulting share of loss to be assessed to the Company.

	The Company has entered into employment contracts and benefit plans with certain executive officers and members of the Board that allow for payments (or accelerated payments) contingent upon a change in control of the Company.

	The income tax provision in 2014 represents a 4.5% effective tax rate on the Company's $3.9 million of pretax income. This rate differs from statutory rates due primarily to a revaluation of net deferred tax assets, mainly related to an anticipated change in our applicable Federal rate from 34.0% to 35.0% at the time the net DTA will be utilized, less additional tax of $1.0 million arising from disallowed merger-related costs. Other differences to the effective tax rate were related to normal recurring permanent differences and tax credits.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $0.2 million in 2014 and an income tax benefit of $50.1 million in 2013. The significant income tax benefit in 2013 resulted primarily from reversing substantially all of the Company's DTA valuation allowance at June 30, 2013 of $41.6 million and the reversal of certain previously written-off deferred tax benefits of $8.5 million resulting from the reassessment of the Company's Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 382 limitations and other related analyses.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had deferred tax assets of $32.1 million and $6.6 million for federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards, respectively. Also, the Company had deferred tax assets of $0.8 million, $1.3 million and $0.1 million for charitable contribution carry-forwards, federal and state tax credits, respectively. At December 31, 2013, the Company had deferred tax assets of $27.4 million and $5.7 million relating to federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards, respectively. Also, the Company had $0.7 million, $1.0 million and $0.1 million relating to charitable contribution carry-forwards, federal and state tax credits, respectively

At December 31, 2014, the deferred tax assets above correspond to federal and state net operating loss ("NOL") carry forwards available of $91.7 million and $147.0 million, respectively. The NOLs are available to offset future taxable income through 2034. Also, at December 31, 2014, the Company had charitable contributions carry-forwards of $2.1 million, which will expire between 2015 and 2018, and federal and state credits of $1.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, which will expire between 2028 and 2032.

In assessing the realizability of DTA, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the DTA will or will not be realized. The Company's ultimate realization of the DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $0.1 million. The DTA valuation allowance relates to state attributes that will expire without benefit.

In 2009, a valuation allowance was established due to uncertainty at the time regarding the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to fully realize the benefit of the net DTA. Due to cumulative losses incurred by the Company in years prior to 2012 and other relevant considerations, the Company was unable to conclude that it was more likely than not that it will realize its net deferred tax asset and, accordingly, maintained a valuation allowance to fully offset its deferred tax asset at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

During 2013, the Company reversed substantially all of its December 31, 2012 valuation allowance due to management's determination that it was more likely than not that a significant amount of the Company's deferred tax asset would be realized. The determination resulted from consideration of both the positive and negative evidence available that can be objectively verified.

Management completed its assessment of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitations, resulting from the capital raise conducted by the Company in January 2011 in which it raised $177.0 million, and from the merger with Home in May 2014. As broadly defined in Section 382, both the issuance of common stock in connection with the capital raise as well as the merger resulted in an “ownership change” of the Company. The net operating loss carry-forwards and tax credits at December 31, 2014 are expected to be utilized over the statutory carry-forward period.

The Company files a U.S. federal income tax return, state income tax returns in Idaho, Oregon, and other state and local income tax returns in various jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2014, our federal tax returns for 2009 and earlier and our state tax returns for 2008 and earlier were no longer subject to examination by the taxing authorities. However, our tax attribute carry-forwards from closed tax years may be subject to examination to the extent utilized in an open tax year.

The Company has evaluated its income tax positions as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. Based on this evaluation, the Company has determined that it does not have any uncertain income tax positions for which an unrecognized tax liability should be recorded. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters as additional income taxes in the consolidated statements of income. The Company had no significant interest or penalties related to income tax matters during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 or 2012.

	Certain officers and directors (and the companies with which they are associated) are customers of, and have had banking transactions with, the Bank in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business. In addition, the Bank expects to continue to have such banking transactions in the future. All loans and commitments to loan to such parties are generally made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. In the opinion of management, these transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present any other unfavorable features.

	401(k) profit sharing plan

	The Company maintains a 401(k) profit sharing plan (the “Plan”) that covers substantially all full-time employees. Employees may make voluntary tax-deferred contributions to the Plan, and the Company’s contributions to the Plan are at the discretion of the Board, not to exceed the amount deductible for federal income tax purposes.

	Employees vest in the Company’s contributions to the Plan over a period of 5 years. The total amounts charged to operations under the Plan were approximately $0.7 million, $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

	Other benefit plans

	The Bank has deferred compensation plans for the Board and certain key executives and managers, and a salary continuation plan and a supplemental executive retirement (“SERP”) plan for certain key executives. In accordance with the provisions of the deferred compensation plans, participants can elect to defer portions of their annual compensation or fees. The deferred amounts generally vest as deferred. The deferred compensation plus interest is generally payable upon termination in either a lump-sum or monthly installments.

	The salary continuation and SERP plans for certain key executives provide specified benefits to the participants upon termination or change of control. The benefits are subject to certain vesting requirements, and vested amounts are generally payable upon termination or change of control in either a lump-sum or monthly installments. The Bank annually expenses amounts sufficient to accrue for the present value of the benefits payable to the participants under these plans. These plans also include death benefit provisions for certain participants.

	To assist in the funding of these plans, the Bank has purchased BOLI policies on the majority of the participants. The cash surrender value of the general account policies at December 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $25.1 million and $8.7 million, respectively. The cash surrender value of the separate account policies, including the value of the stable value wraps, was approximately $28.3 million and $27.9 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the liabilities related to the deferred compensation plans included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaled approximately $7.4 million and $3.9 million, respectively. The amount of expense charged to operations in 2014, 2013, and 2012 related to the deferred compensation plans was approximately $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the liabilities related to the salary continuation and SERP plans included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaled approximately $18.7 million and $12.7 million, respectively. The amount of expense (benefit) charged to operations in 2014, 2013, and 2012 for the salary continuation, SERP and fee continuation plan was $1.0 million, $0.8 million and $(0.5) million, respectively. The decrease in 2012 was a result of adjustments on certain participant’s benefits to change their payouts. Additionally, a benefit was recorded to adjust for the anticipated payouts of certain participants based on their expected future retirement dates.

In April 2008, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2008 Cascade Bancorp Performance Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The 2008 Plan authorized the Board to issue up to an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock related to the grant or settlement of stock-based compensation awards, expanded the types of stock-based compensation awards that may be granted, and expanded the parties eligible to receive such awards. In addition, in April 2011, the stockholders approved an increase in the common stock reserved under the 2008 Plan from 1,000,000 shares to 6,000,000 shares. Under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans, the Board (or the Compensation Committee) may grant stock options (including incentive stock options (“ISOs”) as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code and non-qualified stock options (“NSOs”)), restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other similar types of equity awards intended to qualify as “performance-based” compensation under applicable tax rules. The stock-based compensation plans were established to allow for the granting of compensation awards to attract, motivate, and retain employees, executive officers, non-employee directors, and other service providers who contribute to the success and profitability of the Company and to give such persons a proprietary interest in the Company, thereby enhancing their personal interest in the Company’s success.

	The Board or Compensation Committee may establish and prescribe grant guidelines including various terms and conditions for the granting of stock-based compensation and the total number of shares authorized for this purpose. Under the 2008 Plan, for ISOs and NSOs, the option strike price must be no less than 100% of the stock price at the grant date. Prior to the approval of the 2008 Plan, the option strike price for NSOs could be no less than 85% of the stock price at the grant date. Generally, options become exercisable in varying amounts based on years of employee service and vesting schedules. All options expire after a period of ten years from the date of grant. Other permissible stock awards include restricted stock grants, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights or other similar stock awards (including awards that do not require the grantee to pay any amount in connection with receiving the shares or that have a purchase price that is less than the grant date fair market value of the Company’s stock).

	At December 31, 2014, 3,951,769 shares reserved under the stock-based compensation plans were available for future grants.

	Stock Option Grants

	During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company granted a de minimis number of stock options, and related stock option compensation expense was immaterial for these periods.

	The following table presents the activity related to options under all plans for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012.

	Stock Option Grants occurring after December 31, 2014
	In February 2015, the Company granted 3,300,000 stock options to certain executive officers, subject to shareholder approval at the 2015 annual shareholders' meeting. The grants, which had an estimated grant date fair value of $1.63 per share and strike price of $4.79 per share, are scheduled to vest over a three to five year period and carry a 10 year life. Assumptions related to the fair value of grants include a dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 36.59%, a risk free rate of 1.28%, and expected option life of five years.
	The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of publicly-traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The Black-Scholes model is affected by subjective assumptions including historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price. Assumptions affecting the Black Sholes option pricing model for the 2015 stock grants include a dividend yield that was based on historical dividend information. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price as adjusted for certain historical periods of extraordinary volatility in order to provide a basis for a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	The 2015 grants are the first material stock option grants since 2008. In this time interval, the Company made only de minimis option grants to non-executive officers to facilitate hiring. In adjusting its methodology for calculating expected volatility, the Company identified certain historical periods during which extraordinary price volatility which was caused by discrete events specific to the Company that are not likely to recur, including recapitalization, the discounted payoff of its junior subordinated debentures, a major bulk sale of its adversely risk rated assets, the write off and recapture of its DTA, and highly uncertain regulatory circumstances. For the identified periods, the Company replaced its common stock price volatility with the average volatility of a peer group of publicly traded banks in the Western U.S. of comparable size and complexity. The Company expects to use this methodology for potential future stock options grants until such a time that the periods of historical volatility containing the events noted above drop off of its historical analysis. The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant for periods corresponding with the expected lives of the options granted. The expected option lives represent the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules, historical exercise and forfeiture patterns.

	Restricted Stock Grants
	The Company has also granted awards of nonvested restricted stock. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company granted 602,422 additional shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $4.80 per share, which vest during 2015 through 2019. The following table presents the activity for nonvested restricted stock for the year ended December 31, 2014:


		Number of			Weighted-
		shares			average grant
					date fair value
					per share
	Nonvested as of January 1, 2014	354,270			$	9.41

Granted	602,422			4.8

Exercised / Released	(154,249	)		5.98

Canceled / forfeited	(7,970	)		5.81

Nonvested as of December 31, 2014	794,473			$	6.62


Nonvested restricted stock is scheduled to vest over a three to five year period. The unearned compensation on restricted stock is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods. As of December 31, 2014, unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock totaled approximately $3.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over the next five years. Total expense recognized by the Company for nonvested restricted stock for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 was $1.2 million, $0.8 million, and $0.9 million, respectively.

The Company has also granted awards of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). A RSU represents the unfunded, unsecured right to require the Company to deliver to the participant one share of common stock for each RSU. Total expense recognized by the Company related to RSUs was insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012. There was no unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs at December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, as all RSUs were fully-vested. There were no RSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2014 and there were no RSUs cancelled. There were 4,498 RSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2013 and there were no RSUs cancelled. There were 9,386 RSUs granted or during the year ended December 31, 2012 and there were no RSUs cancelled. At December 31, 2014 there were 16,067 fully-vested RSUs outstanding, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $9.22 per share. At December 31, 2013 there were 16,067 fully-vested RSUs outstanding with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $9.22 per share. At December 31, 2012 there were 16,262 fully vested RSUs outstanding with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $6.45 per share.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	air Value

	GAAP establishes a hierarchy for determining fair value measurements which includes three levels and is based upon the valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:


	•	Level 1: Inputs that are quoted unadjusted prices in active markets - that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date - for identical assets or liabilities.


	•	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 or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.


	•	Level 3: Inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

	A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. These valuation methodologies were applied to all of the Company’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internal or third party models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that assets or liabilities are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes that the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Furthermore, the reported fair value amounts have not been comprehensively revalued since the presentation dates, and, therefore, estimates of fair value after the condensed consolidated balance sheet date may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

	The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to valuation hierarchy:

	Investment securities available-for-sale: Where quoted prices for identical assets are available in an active market, investment securities available-for-sale are classified within level 1 of the hierarchy. If quoted market prices for identical securities are not available, then fair values are estimated by independent sources using pricing models and/or quoted prices of investment securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. The Company has categorized its investment securities available-for-sale as level 2, since a majority of such securities are MBS which are mainly priced in this latter manner.

	Impaired loans: In accordance with GAAP, loans are measured for impairment using one of three methods: an observable market price (if available), the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if collateral dependent). Estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by appraisals or independent valuations which are then adjusted for the estimated costs related to liquidation of the collateral. Management’s ongoing review of appraisal information may result in additional discounts or adjustments to valuation based upon more recent market sales activity or more current appraisal information derived from properties of similar type and/or locale. A significant portion of the Bank’s impaired loans are measured using the estimated fair market value of the collateral less the estimated costs to sell. The Company has categorized all its loans impaired during the calendar year utilizing fair value metrics as level 3. Loans that were impaired during the calendar year based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans' effective interest rates are not included in the table below as the loans' effective interest rates are not based on current market rates.

	OREO: The Company’s OREO is measured at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is generally determined based on third-party appraisals of fair value in an orderly sale. Historically, appraisals have considered comparable sales of like assets in reaching a conclusion as to fair value. Since many recent real estate sales could be termed “distressed sales”, and since a preponderance have been short-sale or foreclosure related, this has directly impacted appraisal valuation estimates. Estimated costs to sell OREO are based on standard market factors. 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 estimated fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. The Company has categorized its OREO as level 3.

	The Company’s only financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (dollars in thousands):


		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3

	Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (e.g., the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments when there is evidence of impairment). The following table represents the assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis by the Company at December 31, 2014 and 2013 (dollars in thousands):

The Company did not change the methodology used to determine fair value for any assets or liabilities during 2014 or 2013. In addition, for any given class of assets, the Company did not have any transfers between level 1, level 2, or level 3 during 2014 or 2013.

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the provisions of GAAP, which requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments where it is practicable to estimate that value.

In cases where quoted market values are not available, the Company primarily uses present value techniques to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments. Valuation methods require considerable judgment, and the resulting estimates of fair value can be significantly affected by the assumptions made and methods used. Accordingly, the estimates provided herein do not necessarily indicate amounts which could be realized in a current market exchange.

In addition, as the Company normally intends to hold the majority of its financial instruments until maturity, it does not expect to realize many of the estimated amounts disclosed. The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for items which are not defined as financial instruments but which may have significant value. The Company does not believe that it would be practicable to estimate a representational fair value for these types of items as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Because GAAP excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of the Company.

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount approximates the estimated fair value of these instruments.

Investment securities: See above description.

FHLB stock: The carrying amount approximates the estimated fair value of this investment.

Loans: The estimated fair value of non-impaired loans is calculated by discounting the contractual cash flows of the loans using December 31, 2014 and 2013 origination rates. The resulting amounts are adjusted to estimate the effect of changes in the credit quality of borrowers since the loans were originated. Estimated fair values for impaired loans are determined using an observable market price, (if available), the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if collateral dependent) as described above. Observable market prices for community bank loans are not generally available given the non-homogenous characteristics of such loans.

BOLI: The carrying amount of both the separate and general account BOLI approximates the estimated fair value of these instruments.

MSRs: The estimated fair value of MSRs is calculated by discounting the expected future contractual cash flows. Factors considered in the estimated fair value calculation include prepayment speed forecasts, market discount rates, earning rates, servicing costs, acquisition costs, ancillary income, and borrower rates.

Deposits: The estimated fair value of demand deposits, consisting of checking, interest bearing demand, and savings deposit accounts, is represented by the amounts payable on demand. At the reporting date, the estimated fair value of time deposits is calculated by discounting the scheduled cash flows using the December 31, 2014 and 2013 rates offered on those instruments.

Other borrowings: The fair value of other borrowings (including federal funds purchased, if any) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Bank’s December 31, 2014 and 2013 incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Loan commitments and standby letters of credit: The majority of the Bank’s commitments to extend credit have variable interest rates and “escape” clauses if the customer’s credit quality deteriorates. Therefore, the fair values of these items are not significant and are not included in the following table.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s significant on-balance sheet financial instruments at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were approximately as follows (dollars in thousands):

Regulatory Matters	Regulatory Matters

	Bancorp and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Bancorp and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Bancorp’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

	Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Bancorp and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of Tier 1 capital to average assets and Tier 1 and total capital to risk-weighted assets (all as defined in the regulations).

	Federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective action if an insured depository institution fails to satisfy certain minimum capital requirements. Such actions could potentially include a leverage capital limit, a risk-based capital requirement, and any other measure of capital deemed appropriate by the federal banking regulator for measuring the capital adequacy of an insured depository institution. In addition, payment of dividends by Bancorp and the Bank are subject to restriction by state and federal regulators and availability of retained earnings.

	At December 31, 2014 and 2013 the Bank and Bancorp met the regulatory benchmarks to be “well-capitalized” under the applicable regulations. Bancorp’s actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 are presented in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of presentation	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cascade Bancorp (“Bancorp”), an Oregon chartered single bank holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of the Cascades (the “Bank”) (collectively, “the Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

	Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2014 presentation. None of these reclassifications have an effect on net income or net cash flows.
Description of business	The Bank conducts a general banking business, operating branches in Central, Southern, and Northwest Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area. Its activities include the usual lending and deposit functions of a commercial bank: commercial, construction, real estate, installment, credit card, and mortgage loans; checking, money market, time deposit, and savings accounts; internet banking and bill payment; automated teller machines, and safe deposit facilities. Additionally, the Bank originates and sells mortgage loans into the secondary market and offers trust and investment services.
Method of accounting	The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and prevailing practices within the banking industry. The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting which recognizes income and gains when earned and expenses and losses when incurred. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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 consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, gains, expenses, and losses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment reporting	The Company is managed by legal entity and not by lines of business. The Company has determined that its operations are solely in the community banking industry and consist of traditional community banking services, including lending activities; acceptance of demand, savings, and time deposits; business services; and trust services. These products and services have similar distribution methods, types of customers and regulatory responsibilities. The performance of the Company is reviewed by the executive management team and the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on a monthly basis. All of the executive officers of Bancorp are members of the Bank's executive management team, and operating decisions are made based on the performance of the Company as a whole. Accordingly, disaggregated segment information is not required to be presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and the Company will continue to present one segment for financial reporting purposes.
Cash and cash equivalents	For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks (including cash items in process of collection), interest bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”) and Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”), and federal funds sold. Generally, any interest bearing deposits are invested for a maximum of 90 days. Federal funds are generally sold for one-day periods.
Cash and cash equivalents	The Bank maintains balances in correspondent bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. In addition, federal funds sold are essentially uncollateralized loans to other financial institutions. Management believes that its risk of loss associated with such balances is minimal due to the financial strength of the correspondent banks and counterparty financial institutions. The Bank has not experienced any losses in such accounts. At December 31, 2014, the Bank was not required to maintain any specific balances in correspondent bank accounts.
Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information	Noncash investing and financing activities consist of unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available-for-sale, net of income taxes, issuance of nonvested restricted stock, and stock-based compensation expense, all as disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity; the net capitalization of originated mortgage-servicing rights, as disclosed in Note 6; and the transfer of approximately $0.2 million, $2.1 million, and $1.3 million of loans to other real estate owned (“OREO”) in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.
Investment securities	Investment securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity.

	Investment securities that are purchased and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in non-interest income. The Company had no trading securities during 2014, 2013, and 2012.

	Investment securities that are not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income or loss, net of income taxes. Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase.

	Investment securities are valued utilizing a number of methods including quoted prices in active markets, 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.

	Gains and losses on the sales of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Premiums and discounts on available-for-sale securities are recognized in interest income using the interest method generally over the period to maturity.

	In estimating other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses, management considers, among other things, (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) the impact of changes in market interest rates, and (4) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery of fair value. Declines in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be OTTI would result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The fair value of the security then becomes the new cost basis. The related write-downs to fair value for available-for-sale equity securities would be included in earnings as realized losses. For individual debt securities which the Company does not intend to sell and for which it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the OTTI losses would be evaluated and (1) the portion related to credit losses would be included in earnings as realized losses and (2) the portion related to market or other factors would be recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. Credit loss is recorded if the present value of cash flows is less than the amortized cost. For individual debt securities which the Company intends to sell or for which it more likely than not will not recover all of its amortized cost, the OTTI is recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security’s cost basis and its fair value at the consolidated balance sheet date. For individual debt securities for which credit loss has been recognized in earnings, interest accruals and amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts are suspended when the credit loss is recognized. Interest received after accruals have been suspended is recognized on a cash basis. Management believes that all unrealized losses on investment securities at December 31, 2014 and 2013 are temporary
FHLB stock	As a member of the FHLB system, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum investment in FHLB stock based on specific percentages of its outstanding mortgages, total assets, or FHLB advances. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Bank met its minimum required investment. The Bank may request redemption at par value of any FHLB stock in excess of the minimum required investment; however, stock redemptions are at the discretion of the FHLB.

	As of December 31, 2014 the FHLB is considered “adequately capitalized” by its primary regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”). The FHLB continues to operate under a Consent Order entered into on October 25, 2010 with the FHFA, as amended on November 22, 2013, which requires the FHLB to take certain specified actions related to its business and operations. Under the amended Consent Order, the FHLB is precluded from repurchasing, redeeming and paying dividends on its capital stock without FHFA approval. However, in 2014 and 2013, the FHLB repurchased 8,812 and 3,722 shares of excess capital stock owned by the Bank for $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively. While the FHLB was classified as “adequately capitalized” as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company does not believe that its investment in FHLB stock is impaired and management has not recorded an impairment of the carrying value of FHLB stock as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. However, this analysis could change in the near-term if: 1) significant other-than-temporary losses are incurred on the FHLB’s mortgage-backed securities causing a significant decline in its regulatory capital status; 2) the economic losses resulting from credit deterioration on the FHLB’s mortgage-backed securities increases significantly; or 3) capital preservation strategies being utilized by the FHLB become ineffective.
Loans	Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by the reserve for loan losses, the undisbursed portion of loans in process, and deferred loan fees.

	Interest income on loans is accrued daily based on the principal amounts outstanding. Allowances are established for uncollected interest on loans for which the interest is determined to be uncollectible. Generally, all loans past due (based on contractual terms) 90 days or more are placed on non-accrual status and internally classified as substandard. Any interest income accrued at that time is reversed. Subsequent collections are applied proportionately to past due principal and interest, unless collectability of principal is in doubt, in which case all payments are applied to principal. Loans are removed from non-accrual status only when the loan is deemed current, and the collectability of principal and interest is no longer doubtful, or, on one-to-four family loans, when the loan is less than 90 days delinquent.

	The Bank charges fees for originating loans. These fees, net of certain loan origination costs, are deferred and amortized to interest income, on the level-yield basis, over the loan term. If the loan is repaid prior to maturity, the remaining unamortized deferred loan origination fee is recognized in interest income at the time of repayment.
Reserve for loan losses	The reserve for loan losses represents management’s estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for loan losses is increased by charges to operating expense through the loan loss provision, and decreased by loans charged-off, net of recoveries. The reserve for loan losses requires complex subjective judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are uncertain. The reserve for loan losses is maintained at a level currently considered adequate to provide for potential loan losses based on management’s assessment of various factors affecting the loan portfolio.

	At December 31, 2014 and 2013, management believes that the Company’s reserve for loan losses is at an appropriate level under current circumstances and prevailing economic conditions. However the reserve for loan losses is based on estimates and ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Therefore, management cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, the Company will not have significant losses in relation to the amount reserved. The level of the reserve for loan losses is also determined after consideration of bank regulatory guidance and recommendations and is subject to review by such regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to the reserve based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank.

	Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses and considers qualitative factors including economic conditions and a range of other factors in its determination of the reserve. On an ongoing basis, the Company seeks to enhance and refine its methodology such that the reserve is at an appropriate level and responsive to changing conditions. In this regard, as of June 30, 2013, management implemented a homogeneous pool approach to estimating reserves for consumer and small business loans.

	For purposes of assessing the appropriate level of the reserve for loan losses, the Company analyzes loans and commitments to loan, and the amount of reserves allocated to loans and commitments to loan in each of the following reserve categories: pooled reserves, specifically identified reserves for impaired loans, and the unallocated reserve. Also, for purposes of analyzing loan portfolio credit quality and determining the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses, the Company identifies loan portfolio segments and classes based on the nature of the underlying loan collateral.

	Reserves for impaired loans are either specifically allocated within the reserve for loan losses or reflected as a partial charge-off of the loan balance. The Bank considers loans to be impaired when management believes that it is probable that either principal and/or interest amounts due will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, the estimated fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, or the value of a related guaranty. A significant portion of the Bank’s loans are either (1) collateralized by real estate, whereby the Bank primarily measures impairment based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, or the value of a related guaranty, or (2) are supported by underlying cash flows, whereby impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Accordingly, changes in such estimated collateral values or future cash flows could result in actual losses which differ from those estimated at the date of the consolidated balance sheets. Impairment measurements may also include consideration of information that becomes available subsequent to year-end. Small balance loans are reserved for based on the applicable loan segment and are reserved at the related pool rate (regardless of dollar amount). Generally, shortfalls on impaired small balance loans are charged off and the Bank does not establish specific reserves. Small balance loans are evaluated for impairment based on the borrower’s difficulty in making payments, an analysis of the borrower’s repayment capacity, collateral coverage, and shortfall, if any, created by reductions in payments or principal. Generally, the Bank evaluates a loan for impairment when a loan is determined to be adversely classified; small balance loans are monitored based on payment performance and are evaluated for impairment no later than 90 days past due.
	The reserve for loan losses may include an unallocated amount based upon the Company’s judgment as to possible credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have been captured by historical loss experience, qualitative factors, or specific evaluations of impaired loans. Unallocated reserves may be adjusted for factors including, but not limited to, unexpected or unusual events, volatile market and economic conditions, effects of changes or seasoning in methodologies, regulatory guidance and recommendations, or other factors that may impact operating conditions and loss expectations. Management’s judgment as to unallocated reserves is determined in the context of, but separate from, the historical loss trends and qualitative factors described above.

	Due to the judgment involved in the determination of the qualitative and unallocated portions of the reserve for loan losses, the relationship of these components to the total reserve for loan losses may fluctuate from period to period.
Troubled debt restructuring (TDRs)	A loan is classified as a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the borrower in the restructuring that the Company would not otherwise consider in the origination of a loan. In some situations a borrower may be experiencing financial distress, but the Company does not provide a concession. These modifications are not considered TDRs. In other cases, the Company might provide a concession, such as a reduction in interest rate, but the borrower is not experiencing financial distress. This could be the case if the Company is matching a competitor’s interest rate. These modifications would also not be considered TDRs. Finally, any renewals at existing terms for borrowers not experiencing financial distress would not be considered TDRs. A TDR loan is considered to be impaired and is individually evaluated for impairment. As with other impaired loans, a reserve for loan loss is estimated for each TDR based on the difference between expected future cash flows discounted at the original contractual rate and the current balance of the loan. For collateral dependent loans, expected future cash flows include the estimated market value less cost to sell.
Reserve for unfunded loan commitments	The Company maintains a separate reserve for losses related to unfunded loan commitments. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the Bank’s unfunded loan commitments. Management estimates the amount of probable losses related to unfunded loan commitments by applying the loss factors used in the reserve for loan loss methodology to an estimate of the expected amount of funding and applies this adjusted factor to the unused portion of unfunded loan commitments. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments totaled $0.4 million at both December 31, 2014 and 2013 and these amounts are included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Increases (decreases) in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments are recorded in non-interest expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)	MSRs are capitalized at their allocated carrying value and amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated future net servicing revenue. MSRs are measured by allocating the carrying value of loans between the assets sold and interest retained, based upon the relative estimated fair value at date of sale. Impairment of MSRs is assessed based on the estimated fair value of servicing rights. Fair value is estimated using discounted cash flows of servicing revenue less servicing costs taking into consideration market estimates of prepayments as applied to underlying loan type, note rate, and term. Impairment adjustments, if any, are recorded through a valuation allowance. Fees earned for servicing mortgage loans are reported as income when the related mortgage loan payments are received.
Premises and equipment	Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or terms of the leases. Estimated useful lives of the assets range predominantly as follows: 3 to 15 years for land improvements, 5 to 39 years for buildings, 3 to 5 years for computers, and 3 to 15 years for furniture, fixtures, and other equipment. Amortization of leasehold improvements is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

	As part of an ongoing review of the valuation and amortization of premises and equipment, the Company assesses the carrying value of such assets if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired. If this review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, the carrying value of the Company's premises and equipment would be reduced to its estimated fair value.
Core deposit intangibles (CDI)	CDI represents amounts recorded in business combinations or deposit purchase transactions related to the value of transaction-related deposits and the value of the customer relationships associated with the deposits.
Bank-owned life insurance (BOLI)	The Company has purchased BOLI to protect itself against the loss of certain key employees and directors due to death and as a source of long-term earnings to support certain employee benefit plans. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $28.3 million and $27.9 million, respectively, of separate account BOLI and $25.1 million and $8.7 million, respectively, of general account BOLI.

	The cash surrender value of the separate account BOLI is the quoted market price of the underlying securities, further supported by a stable value wrap, which mitigates, but does not fully protect, the investment against changes in the fair market value depending on the severity and duration of market price disruption. The fair value of the general account BOLI is based on the insurance contract cash surrender value. The underlying funds within the separate account structure generated positive performance during 2014, 2013, and 2012. There can be no assurance that losses in excess of the stable value wrap protection will not occur on separate account BOLI in the future.
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)	OREO, acquired through foreclosure or deeds in lieu of foreclosure, is carried at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. When the property is acquired, any excess of the loan balance over the estimated net realizable value is charged to the reserve for loan losses. Holding costs, subsequent write-downs to net realizable value, if any, and any disposition gains or losses are included in non-interest expenses. The valuation of OREO is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in economic conditions. The valuation of OREO is also subject to review by federal and state bank regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to carrying amounts based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank. Management considers third-party appraisals, as well as independent fair market value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling OREO, in determining the estimated fair value of particular properties. In addition, as certain of these third-party appraisals and independent fair market value assessments are only updated on an annual basis, changes in the values of specific properties may have occurred subsequent to the most recent appraisals. Accordingly, the amounts of any such potential changes - and any related adjustments - are generally recorded at the time such information is received. OREO valuation adjustments have been recorded on certain OREO properties. These adjustments are recorded in OREO expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.
Advertising	Advertising costs are generally charged to expense during the year in which they are incurred.
Income taxes	The provision (benefit) for income taxes is based on income and expenses as reported for consolidated financial statement purposes using the “asset and liability method” for accounting for deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision (credit) for income taxes.

	In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets (“DTA”), management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the DTA will or will not be realized. The Company's ultimate realization of the DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

	At both December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had a $0.1 million valuation allowance against its DTA due to reversal of substantially all of the Company's DTA valuation allowance at December 31, 2012 of $41.7 million and the reversal of certain previously written-off deferred tax benefits of $8.5 million resulting from a reassessment of the Company's Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 382 limitations and other analyses.

	The DTA valuation allowance was established during 2009 due to uncertainty at the time regarding the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to fully realize the benefit of the net DTA. Based on its earnings performance trend, expected continued profitability and improvements in the Company's financial condition; management determined it was more likely than not that a significant portion of our DTA would be realized.

	Deferred tax assets are recognized subject to management's judgment that realization is “more likely than not.” Uncertain tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize. An uncertain tax position is measured at the amount of benefit that management believes has a greater than 50% likelihood of realization upon settlement. Tax benefits not meeting our realization criteria represent unrecognized tax benefits. We account for interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities	The Company periodically enters into certain commercial loan interest rate swap agreements in order to provide commercial loan customers the ability to convert from variable to fixed interest rates. Under these agreements, the Company enters into a variable-rate loan agreement with a customer in addition to a swap agreement. This swap agreement effectively converts the customer’s variable rate loan into a fixed rate. The Company then enters into a corresponding swap agreement with a third party in order to offset its exposure on the variable and fixed components of the customer agreement. As the interest rate swap agreements with the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB ASC, the instruments are marked to market in earnings.
Trust assets	Assets of the Bank’s trust department, other than cash on deposit at the Bank, are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, because they are not assets of the Bank. Assets (unaudited) totaling approximately $58.5 million and $59.6 million were held in trust as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Transfers of financial assets	Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) 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 (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Loss contingencies	Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is deemed probable and an amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.
Cash Dividend Restriction	Payment of dividends by Bancorp and the Bank is subject to restriction by state and federal regulators and the availability of retained earnings
Cash Dividend Restriction	Bancorp may issue preferred stock in one or more series, up to a maximum of 5,000,000 shares. Each series shall include the number of shares issued, preferences, special rights, and limitations, all as determined by the Board. Preferred stock may be issued with or without voting rights, not to exceed one vote per share, except in certain circumstances and the shares of preferred stock will not vote as a separate class or series except as required by state law
Preferred Stock	Payment of dividends by Bancorp and the Bank is subject to restriction by state and federal regulators and the availability of retained earnings
Preferred Stock	Bancorp may issue preferred stock in one or more series, up to a maximum of 5,000,000 shares. Each series shall include the number of shares issued, preferences, special rights, and limitations, all as determined by the Board. Preferred stock may be issued with or without voting rights, not to exceed one vote per share, except in certain circumstances and the shares of preferred stock will not vote as a separate class or series except as required by state law
Comprehensive Income (Loss)	Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during a period, except those resulting from transactions with stockholders. The Company’s comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and the changes in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of investment securities available-for-sale, net of taxes.
New authoritative accounting guidance	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-14. "Receivables- Troubled Debt Structurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure" ("ASU 2014-14"). ASU 2014-14 clarifies accounting and reporting for foreclosed mortgage loans when the loan is subject to a government guarantee. The provisions require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable recognized upon foreclosure if 1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; 2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and 3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. ASU 2014-14 is effective for annual period and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Adoption of ASU 2014-14 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 establishes a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries under U.S. GAAP, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate, construction and software industries. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this objective, the standard requires five basic steps: i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 with three transition methods available - full retrospective, retrospective and cumulative effect approach. Adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

	In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, "Receivables- Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure" ("ASU 2014-04"). The provisions of ASU 2014-04 clarify that when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. The provisions of ASU 2014-04 are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists" ("ASU 2013-11"). ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. No new recurring disclosures are required. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013 and are to be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
