Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2012
(unaudited)
The accompanying interim condensed 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” or “Cascade”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain financial information and footnotes have been omitted or condensed. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (all of which are of a normal and recurring nature) necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and income and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 were derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all disclosures contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2011 consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Certain amounts for 2011 have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation, however the reclassifications do not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
| 2. | Capital Raise and Bulk Sale of Distressed Assets |
In January 2011, the Company completed a $177.0 million capital raise (the “Capital Raise”). Capital Raise proceeds in the amount of approximately $167.9 million (net of offering costs) were received on January 28, 2011, of which approximately $150.4 million was contributed to the Bank. Approximately $15.0 million of the Capital Raise proceeds were used to extinguish $68.6 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debentures (the “Debentures”) and approximately $3.9 million of accrued interest payable, resulting in a pre-tax extraordinary gain of approximately $54.9 million ($32.8 million after tax). During the second quarter of 2011, the Company received an additional $0.2 million in proceeds from the issuance of an additional 50,000 shares of common stock in connection with the completion of the Capital Raise described above.
In September 2011, the Bank entered into a Commercial Loan Purchase Agreement and Residential Loan Purchase Agreement with a third party pursuant to which the Bank sold approximately $110.0 million (carrying amount) of certain non-performing, substandard, and related performing loans and approximately $2.0 million of other real estate owned (“OREO”) (the “Bulk Sale”). In connection with the Bulk Sale, the Bank received approximately $58.0 million in cash from the buyer, incurred approximately $3.0 million in related closing costs, and recorded loan charge-offs totaling approximately $54.0 million. See Note 5 for a discussion of the reserve for loan losses.

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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 as compared to yield/spread relationships prevailing at the time specific investment securities were purchased. Management expects the fair value of these investment securities to recover as securities approach their maturity dates. Accordingly, management does not believe that the above gross unrealized losses on investment securities are other-than-temporary. Accordingly, no impairment adjustments have been recorded.
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 June 30, 2012, 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.
| 4. | Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”) Stock |
As of June 30, 2012 the FHLB met all of its regulatory capital requirements, but remained classified as “undercapitalized” by its primary regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”), due to several factors including the possibility that further declines in the value of its private-label mortgage-backed securities could cause it to fall below its risk-based capital requirements. The FHLB continues to operate under a Consent Agreement entered into on October 25, 2010 with the FHFA, which requires the FHLB to take certain specified actions related to its business and operations. The FHFA continues to deem the FHLB “undercapitalized” under the FHFA’s Prompt Corrective Action rule. The FHLB will not pay a dividend or repurchase capital stock while it is classified as “undercapitalized”. While the FHLB was “undercapitalized” as of June 30, 2012, 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 June 30, 2012. 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.

Loan balances declined in the two quarters of 2012 mainly due to obligor payoffs and paydowns of Bank loans. As discussed in Note 2, the Bank sold approximately $110.0 million (book carrying amount) of certain non-performing, substandard, and related performing loans during the third quarter of 2011. Loans sold in connection with the Bulk Sale consisted primarily of commercial real estate (“CRE”) and construction loans.
Included in residential real estate were approximately $1.0 million and $506 thousand in mortgage loans held for sale at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
A substantial portion of the Bank’s loans are collateralized by real estate in four major markets (Central, Southern and Northwest Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area). As such, the Bank’s results of operations and financial condition are affected by the general economic trends and, in particular, the local residential and commercial real estate markets it serves. Economic trends can significantly affect the strength of the local real estate market. Approximately 78% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at June 30, 2012 consisted of real estate-related loans, including construction and development loans, residential mortgage loans, and commercial loans secured by commercial real estate. While broader economic conditions appear to be stabilizing, real estate prices remain at markedly lower levels due to the economic recession beginning in 2008. Should the period of lower real estate prices persist for an extended duration or should real estate markets further decline, the Bank could be materially and adversely affected. Specifically, collateral for the Bank’s loans would provide less security and the Bank’s ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling real estate collateral would be diminished. Real estate values could be affected by, among other things, a worsening of 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 given a sustained weakness or a weakening 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 nonperforming assets, net charge-offs, and loan loss provision.
In the normal course of business, the Bank participates portions of loans to third parties in order to extend the Bank’s lending capability or to mitigate risk.At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the portion of these loans participated to third-parties (which are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) totaled approximately $14.4 million and $22.4 million, respectively.
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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, 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.
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 loans 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.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company revised and continued to enhance its methodology for estimating the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses. The significant revisions to the methodology included (1) the application of historical loss factors by risk rating for each loan segment, as compared to the prior method which utilized blended historical loss factors, (2) a change to historical look-back periods, and (3) refinement of the qualitative factors and application thereof used to adjust the estimated historical loss factors. The reserve for loan losses at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were significantly affected by the revisions and enhancements to the Company’s methodology, as well as by the effects of charge-offs incurred in the 2011 Bulk Sale of certain loans (see Note 2) on its historical loss factors. A description of the significant revisions and enhancements to the methodology for estimating the reserve for loan losses follows:
Application of historical loss factors by risk rating for each loan segment and change in look-back period, as compared to the prior method which utilized blended quarterly historical loss factors.
Under the previous method, historical loss factors were computed using a rolling 12-quarter basis, then weighted 50% for the most current four quarters, 35% for the next four preceding quarters, and 15% for the final four preceding quarters. The previous method applied these historical loss factors without regard to risk rating. Under the previous method, each of 12 quarterly look-back periods in the model included charge-off experience for the preceding quarter. Under the enhanced method, historical loss factors are calculated using a minimum of 12 quarterly look-back periods applied by risk rating to each loan segment. Each look-back period includes charge-off experience by risk rating for each loan segment for the preceding four quarters. Historical loss rates for each period are averaged and multiplied by current loan balances for each risk rating category within loan segments to estimate loss reserve. In addition, the Company made minor refinements to its loan segment groups according to related risk attributes and applied statistical leveling techniques considered appropriate to the change in method.
Refinement of qualitative factors.
The Company refined the qualitative factors used to adjust the historical loss factors by more explicitly detailing the specific qualitative factors to be considered and the determination of the resulting quantitative amounts. In addition, certain qualitative factors are included in the estimate of the total reserve for loan losses to reflect uncertainties such as a lack of seasoning in the enhanced model.

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.
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 certain cases, the borrower’s management, although less experienced, is considered capable. Also, in some cases, the borrower’s management may have limited depth or continuity. 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.
Watch
Loans are graded Watch when temporary situations increase the level of the Bank’s risk associated with the loan, and remain graded 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, certain substandard loans also include impaired loans. Impaired loans, bear the characteristics of Substandard loans as described above, but the Company has determined it does not expect to receive timely return of all contractually due interest and principal. Impaired loans include loans that may be adequately secured by collateral but the borrower is unable to maintain regularly scheduled interest payments.

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.
The Company allocated $6.9 and $8.3 million of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. TDRs involved 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. These may also include loans experiencing financial stress that renewed at existing contractual rates, but below market rates for comparable credit quality. The Company has been active at utilizing these programs and working with its customers to reduce the risk of foreclosure. These 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 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 may retain that designation until it is paid off, since 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 be no longer impaired and is paying a competitive interest rate. Under such circumstances, allowance allocations for loans removed from TDR status would be based on the historical based allocation for the applicable loan grade and loan class.
As with other impaired loans, an allowance for loan loss is estimated for each TDR based on the most likely source of repayment for each loan. For impaired commercial real estate loans that are collateral dependent, the allowance is computed based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. For impaired commercial loans where repayment is expected from cash flows from business operations and/or sale of collateral, the allowance is computed based on a discounted cash flow computation. The allowance allocations for commercial TDRs where we have reduced the contractual interest rate are computed by measuring cash flows using the new payment terms discounted at the original contractual rate.

| 9. | Basic and Diluted Net Income per Common Share |
The Company’s basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any incremental shares arising from the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation.
The numerators and denominators used in computing basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 can be reconciled as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share data):
| | Three months ended | | | Six months ended | |

| 10. | Stock-Based Compensation |
At June 30, 2012,4,839,876 shares reserved under the stock-based compensation plans were available for future grants.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company granted 54,421 additional shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.70 per share, which vest during 2014 and 2015. During the same period, the Company also granted 19,412 stock options with a weighted-average grant date fair value of approximately $4.25 per option. These stock options vest in 2014.The Company did not grant any stock options in 2011.The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions to value options granted in 2012:
Dividend yield | | | 0.0 | % |
Expected volatility | | | 85.0 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 1.4 | % |
Expected option lives | | | 6 years | |
The dividend yield was based on historical dividend information. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price. The risk-free interest rate 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 and historical exercise and forfeiture patterns.
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 includinghistorical volatility of the Company’s common stock price. Because the Company has relatively low average trading volume in its common stock, its estimated volatility may be higher than publicly-traded companies with greater trading volumes.
The following table presents the activity related to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2012:
| | Options | | | Weighted- average exercise price | | | Weighted- average remaining contractual term (years) | | | Aggregate intrinsic value (000) | |
Options outstanding at January 1, 2012 | | | 144,370 | | | $ | 68.90 | | | | 5.9 | | | $ | - | |

Options outstanding at June 30, 2012 | | | 137,973 | | | $ | 59.77 | | | | 6.3 | | | $ | 27.8 | |
Options exercisable at June 30, 2012 | | | 56,711 | | | $ | 137.74 | | | | 3.6 | | | $ | - | |
Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $91 thousand and $72 thousand, respectively.As of June 30, 2012, there was approximately $137 thousand unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options which will be recognized over the remaining vesting periods of the underlying stock options.
The following table presents the activity related to nonvested restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2012:
| | Number of shares | | | Weighted- average grant date fair value per share | |
Nonvested as of January 1, 2012 | | | 138,864 | | | $ | 15.72 | |
Granted | | | 54,421 | | | | 5.70 | |
Vested | | | (25,208 | ) | | | 7.20 | |
Cancelled/forefeited | | | (17,534 | ) | | | 7.22 | |
Nonvested as of June 30, 2012 | | | 150,543 | | | $ | 14.51 | |
Nonvested restricted stock is generally scheduled to vest over a three year period and as of June 30, 2012 has a remaining vesting term of approximately two years. The unearned compensation on restricted stock is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods.As of June 30, 2012, unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock totaled approximately $871 thousand, which is expected to be recognized over the next three and a half years. Total expense recognized by the Company for nonvested restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were$488 thousand and $441 thousand, respectively, and is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods. There was no unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units (“RSUs”) at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as all RSUs were fully-vested at the date of the grant.
During the quarterended June 30, 2012, the Company awarded a total of 34,505 shares of common stock with a fair value of $5.54 per share at the grant date to its directors as compensation for their services. These awards were in connection to the Board of Directors 2012 Compensation plan. For those directors who elected to defer the equity awards, the Company issued 9,386 RSUs to those of its directors who elect to defer receiving equity compensation. In addition, during the second quarter of 2012, the Company issued a total of 7,627 shares of nonvested restricted stock to new hires at a weighted average grant price of $4.91 per share. These shares are included in the above table of activity related to nonvested restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $50 thousand. This provision for income taxes was calculated based on management’s current projections of estimated full-year pre-tax results of operations, estimated utilization of deferred tax assets on which a full valuation allowance was previously recorded, and other permanent book/tax differences. Accordingly, this calculation and the estimated income tax amounts are subject to adjustment as additional facts become available and management’s estimates are revised. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $17.7 million. Included in this amount was an income tax provision of approximately $22.1 million related to the extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of the Debentures (see Note 2), which was calculated based on the Company’s estimated statutory income tax rates. The income tax provision of $17.7 million also includes a credit for income taxes of approximately $4.4 million related to the Company’s loss from operations excluding the extraordinary gain.
Management determined the amount of the deferred tax valuation allowance at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 by evaluating 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. The ability to utilize deferred tax assets is a complex process requiring in-depth analysis of statutory, judicial, and regulatory guidance and estimates of future taxable income. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset balance of $51.4 million. There are a number of tax issues that impact the deferred tax asset balance including changes in temporary differences between the financial statement and tax recognition of revenue and expenses, the recapture of previously realized deferred tax assets that are now deemed unrealizable, and a reduction of deferred tax assets due to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. See also “Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates – Deferred Income Taxes” included in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
| 12. | Fair Value Measurements |
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 measured for impairment are reported at estimated fair value,including impaired loans measured at 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 its impaired loans as level 3.
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. In addition to valuation adjustments recorded on specific OREO properties, at December 31, 2011, the Company recorded a $5.0 million general valuation allowance allocated among homogenous groupings of OREO properties. At June 30, 2012 the balance in the general valuation allowance was $1.6 million. 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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | |

Investment securities available - for - sale | | $ | - | | | $ | 209,506 | | | $ | - | |
Certain assets, such as impaired loans and OREO, 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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (dollars in thousands):

Other real estate owned | | $ | 12,251 | | | | Market approach | | | | Appraised value less selling costs of 5% to 10% | | | | | |
Other than the establishment of a general valuation allowance on OREO at December 31, 2011, the Company did not change the methodology used to determine fair value for any assets or liabilities during 2011, or during the six months ended June 30, 2012. In addition, for any given class of assets, the Company did not have any transfers between level 1, level 2, or level 3 during 2011 or the six months ended June 30, 2012.
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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 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 approximates the estimated fair value of these instruments.
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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were approximately as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | June 30, 2012 | | | December 31, 2011 | |

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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 the Bank met the regulatory benchmarks to be “well-capitalized” under the applicable regulations and the Order (discussed below). At December 31, 2011 the Bank did not meet the 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement per the Order, and was considered “adequately capitalized” under the applicable regulations. At June 30, 2012Bancorp also met the regulatory benchmarks to be “well-capitalized” under applicable regulations and the Written Agreement (discussed below). However, at December 31, 2011 Bancorp did not meet the Written Agreement’s requirement that Bancorp maintain a 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio and Bancorp was considered “adequately capitalized” under the applicable regulations. As a result, Bancorp filed the required update to its capital plan with the FRB and the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities (“DFCS”) which was accepted by its regulators.
On August 27, 2009, the Bank entered into an agreement with the FDIC, its principal federal banking regulator, and DFCS which requires the Bank to take certain measures to improve its safety and soundness.
In connection with this agreement, the Bank stipulated to the issuance by the FDIC and the DFCS of a cease-and-desist order (the “Order”) against the Bank based on certain findings from an examination of the Bank concluded in February 2009 based upon financial and lending data measured as of December 31, 2008 (the Report of Examination, or “ROE”). In entering into the stipulation and consenting to entry of the Order, the Bank did not concede the findings or admit to any of the assertions therein.
Under the Order, the Bank is required to take certain measures to improve its capital position, maintain liquidity ratios, reduce its level of non-performing assets, reduce its loan concentrations in certain portfolios, improve management practices and board supervision, and assure that its reserve for loan losses is maintained at an appropriate level.
Among the corrective actions required are for the Bank to develop and adopt a plan to maintain the minimum capital requirements for a “well-capitalized” bank, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 10% at the Bank level beginning 150 days from the issuance of the Order. As of June 30, 2012, the requirement relating to increasing the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio has been met.
The Order further requires the Bank to ensure the level of the reserve for loan losses is maintained at appropriate levels to safeguard the book value of the Bank’s loans and leases, and to reduce the amount of classified loans as of the ROE to no more than 75% of capital. As of June 30, 2012, the requirement that the amount of classified loans as of the ROE be reduced to no more than 75% of capital has been met. As required by the Order, all assets classified as “Loss” in the ROE have been charged-off. The Bank has also developed and implemented a process for the review and approval of all applicable asset disposition plans.
The Order further requires the Bank to maintain a primary liquidity ratio (net cash, plus net short-term and marketable assets divided by net deposits and short-term liabilities) of at least 15%. As of June 30, 2012, the Bank’s primary liquidity ratio was 26.49%.
In addition, pursuant to the Order, the Bank must retain qualified management and must notify the FDIC and the DFCS in writing when it proposes to add any individual to its Board or to employ any new senior executive officer. Under the Order, the Bank’s Board must also increase its participation in the affairs of the Bank, assuming full responsibility for the approval of sound policies and objectives and for the supervision of all the Bank’s activities. The Order also restricts the Bank from taking certain actions without the consent of the FDIC and the DFCS, including paying cash dividends, and from extending additional credit to certain types of borrowers.
The Order remains in place until lifted by the FDIC and DFCS, and, therefore, the Bank remains subject to the requirements and restrictions set forth therein.
On October 26, 2009, Bancorp entered into a written agreement with the FRB and DFCS (the “Written Agreement”), which requires Bancorp to take certain measures to improve its safety and soundness. Under the Written Agreement, Bancorp was required to develop and submit for approval, a plan to maintain sufficient capital at Bancorp and the Bank within 60 days of the date of the Written Agreement. The Company submitted a strategic plan on October 28, 2009. As of June 30, 2012,Bancorp met the 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement per the Written Agreement, however at December 31, 2011 Bancorp did not meet this requirement and was considered “adequately capitalized” under the applicable regulations. As a result, Bancorp filed the required update to its capital plan with the FRB and DFCS which was accepted by its regulators.

| 14. | New Authoritative Accounting Guidance |
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, “A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring” (ASU 2011-02). The provisions of ASU No. 2011-02 provide additional guidance related to determining whether a creditor has granted a concession, include factors and examples for creditors to consider in evaluating whether a restructuring results in a delay in payment that is insignificant, prohibit creditors from using the borrower’s effective rate test to evaluate whether a concession has been granted to the borrower, and add factors for creditors to use in determining whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. A provision in ASU 2011-02 also ends the FASB’s deferral of the additional disclosures about TDRs as required by ASU 2010-20. The provisions of ASU 2011-02 are effective for the Company’s reporting period ended September 30, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (ASU 2011-04). The provisions of ASU 2011-04 amend FASB ASC Topic 820, clarify the Board’s intent regarding application of existing fair value measurement guidance, and revise certain measurement and disclosure requirements to achieve convergence of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of the highest-and-best-use and valuation premise and with respect to the measurement of fair value of an instrument classified as equity. The amendment also expands the information required to be disclosed with respect to fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 fair value measurements and the items not measured at fair value but for which fair value must be disclosed. The provisions of ASU 2011-04 are effective for the Company’s first reporting period beginning on January 1, 2012, with early adoption not permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2011-05). The provisions of ASU 2011-05 amend FASB ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income” to eliminate the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity, and require the presentation of net income and other comprehensive income (and their respective components) either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments do not alter any current recognition or measurement requirements with respect to items of other comprehensive income. The provisions of ASU 2011-05 are effective for the Company’s first reporting period beginning on January 1, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05” (ASU 2011-12). ASU 2011-12 defers changes in ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments to allow the FASB time to redeliberate whether to require presentation of such adjustments on the face of the consolidated financial statements to show the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-12 allows entities to continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before ASU 2011-05. All other requirements in ASU 2011-05 are not affected by ASU 2011-12. ASU 2011-12 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
| 15. | Commitments and Contingencies |
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 condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
16. Correction of Error in Prior Periods
Subsequent to the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, but prior to filing the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, management discovered an error in the computation of the Bank’s regulatory capital for purposes of the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports. This Call Report error affected disclosures about the Bank’s regulatory capital disclosures in certain of the Company’s prior filings with the SEC because those disclosures were taken from the Call Reports. The error affected disclosures in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and the Forms 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2012 (collectively, the “Prior Reports”). The correction of the error had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations, stockholder’s equity, or the amounts or disclosure of the regulatory capital or regulatory capital ratios of Bancorp as included in the Prior Reports. The correction does decrease the regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios of the Bank when compared with the previously reported regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios included in the Prior Reports.. The Company believes the error will not affect the Bank status with respect to its outstanding regulatory agreements with FDIC, or DFCS.
This error in the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports was discovered in connection with a routine examination of the Bank by the FDIC and DFCS, the Bank’s primary regulators. In the course of discussions with the FDIC and DFCS, management discovered that the Bank had failed to record a valuation allowance against the Bank’s deferred tax asset, resulting in an overstatement of the Bank’s regulatory capital ranging from approximately $12 million to $22 million in the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports covering the periods from March 31, 2011 through March 31, 2012. In its intercompany bookkeeping for the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports for the four quarterly periods of 2011, and the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Bank failed to record the appropriate valuation allowance. Following the discovery of this error, management revised the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports to reflect a tax deferred asset valuation allowance ranging from approximately $12 million to $22 million for the affected periods. The following table presents the impact of the correction of the error on the Bank’s regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios as set forth in the periods covered by the Prior Reports:

Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates
The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform, in all material respects, to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. While the Company bases estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company considers accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Accounting policies related to the reserve for loan losses are considered to be critical, as these policies involve considerable subjective judgment and estimation by management.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company revised and continued to enhance its methodology for estimating the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses. The significant revisions to the methodology included (1) the application of historical loss factors by risk rating for each loan segment, as compared to the prior method which utilized blended historical loss factors, (2) a change to historical look-back periods, and (3) refinement of the qualitative factors and application thereof used to adjust the estimated historical loss factors. The reserve for loan losses at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were significantly affected by inclusion of charge-offs incurred in the 2011 Bulk Sale of certain loans (see Note 2) and related effect on historical loss factors, risk rating changes within the loan portfolio, and changes in the level of expected loss on impaired loans.
The issuance of common stock in connection with the Company’s successful completion of its Capital Raise in the first quarter of 2011 resulted in an “ownership change” of the Company, as broadly defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the ownership change, utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and certain built-in losses under federal income tax laws will be subject to annual limitation. Given the limited carryforward period assigned to these tax deductions in excess of this annual limit, some portion of these potential deductions will be lost and, consequently, the related tax benefits may not be recorded in the financial statements.
At June 30, 2012, the Company continued to conclude it was more likely than not that its deferred tax asset would not be realized. Accordingly it has established a full valuation allowance that has reduced its deferred tax asset to zero. The determination as to utilization of deferred tax assets requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation of complex tax laws. The Company will continues to evaluate available evidence, including the its forecasts of future taxable income and related operating results, in determining if some or all of its deferred income tax assets may become realizable.
For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates” included in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2011.
Corrections to Previously Reported Financial Information
Subsequent to the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, but prior to filing the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, management discovered an error in the computation of the Bank’s regulatory capital for purposes of the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports. This Call Report error affected the Bank’s regulatory capital disclosures in certain of the Company’s prior filings with the SEC because those disclosures were taken from the Call Reports. The error affected disclosures in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and the Forms 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2012 (collectively, the “Prior Reports”) including disclosure about the Bank’s compliance with a regulatory order applicable to the Bank as described below. The correction of the error had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations, stockholder’s equity or the amounts or disclosure of the regulatory capital or regulatory capital ratios of Bancorp as included in the Prior reports. The correction does decrease the regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios of the Bank when compared with the previously reported regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios included in the Prior Reports. The Company believes the error will not affect the Bank status with respect to its outstanding regulatory agreements with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services, Division of Finance & Corporate Securities (“DFCS”).
This error in the Bank’s Call Reports was discovered in connection with a routine examination of the Bank by the FDIC and DFCS, the Bank’s primary regulators. In the course of discussions with the FDIC and DFCS, management discovered that the Bank had failed to record a valuation allowance against the Bank’s deferred tax asset, resulting in an overstatement of the Bank’s regulatory capital of approximately $22 million in the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports covering the periods from March 31, 2011 through March 31, 2012. In its intercompany bookkeeping for the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports for the four quarterly periods of 2011, and the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Bank failed to record the appropriate valuation allowance. Following the discovery of this error, management revised the Bank’s FDIC Call Reports to reflect a tax deferred asset valuation allowance of approximately $22 million for the affected periods.As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K that we filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on August 14, 2012, disclosures regarding the Bank’s historical regulatory capital, regulatory capital ratios and related disclosures in this second quarter 2012 reflect the impact of the correction of the error, and contrary information set forth in the Prior Reports should be disregarded.
The following table presents the impact of the correction of the error on the Bank’s regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios for as set forth in the periods covered by the Prior Reports:

Status of the Regulatory Order
On August 27, 2009, the Bank stipulated to the issuance by the FDIC and DFCS of an order to cease and desist (the “Order”).Based upon the preliminary results of a recent FDIC and DFCS examination, management believes that the Order will be lifted. Management also believes that the error in the Bank’s Call Reports did not contravene the Order and that the Bank is in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Order currently and as to periods covered by the Prior Reports. Removal of the Order requires various levels of review within the FDIC and DFCS, and removal is expected to require at least 60 days to be completed. Further, management believes that if the Order is removed the Bank may remain subject to an informal supervisory directive or memorandum of understanding, the terms of which would likely continue to impose certain limitations on the Bank’s operations.
Disclosures with Respect to Compliance with the Order
Among other things, the Order imposes capital adequacy requirements on the Bank that are higher than those generally imposed by applicable banking regulations. In the case of the Bank, the Order requires the Bank to maintain a Tier 1 capital leverage ratio of 10.0%. Along with the error in computed Bank capital ratios, the Prior Reports also included a statement to the effect that the Bank was, as of the relevant report date, in compliance with the 10.0% Tier 1 capital leverage ratio imposed by the Order. In the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 and its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the footnote contained an error asserting that the Bank was in compliance with the 10.0% Tier 1 capital leverage ratio imposed by the Order as of the end of the relevant period.
If the error had been discovered as of December 31, 2011, the Company would likely have provided alternative disclosures in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. These alternative disclosures most likely would have indicated that the Bank did not technically meet that portion of the Order relating to the 10% Tier 1 capital leverage ratio requirement and that, as a consequence, the Bank would likely have been required to file an updated capital plan with the FDIC and DFCS. The disclosure would have been nearly identical with disclosures made by the Bancorp, which was in a similar position with respect to its 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio at December 31, 2011. The Company would also have likely included a disclosure that, based on discussions among the FDIC, DFCS and management, that management believed the Bank was in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Order, including the 10% Tier 1 capital leverage ratio requirements, at December 31, 2011.
After adjustment of the Bank’s regulatory capital and regulatory capital ratios to account for correction of the error, the Bank was in compliance with the 10.0% Tier 1 capital leverage ratio required by the Order at March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2012. There is no impact on the regulatory capital or regulatory capital ratios of Bancorp as disclosed in the Prior Reports.
New Proposed Capital Rules
On June 12, 2012, the three federal banking regulators (including the Federal Reserve and the FDIC) jointly announced that they were seeking comment on three sets of proposed regulations relating to capital (the “Proposed Rules”). The Proposed Rules would apply to both depository institutions and (subject to certain exceptions not applicable to the Company) their holding companies. Although parts of the Proposed Rules would apply only to large, complex financial institutions, substantial portions of the Proposed Rules would apply to the Bank and Bancorp. The Proposed Rules include requirements contemplated by Dodd-Frank Act as well as certain standards initially adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2010, which standards are commonly referred to as “Basel III”.
The Proposed Rules include new risk-based and leverage capital ratio requirements, which would be phased in beginning in 2013 and be fully implemented January 1, 2015, and would refine the definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating those ratios. The proposed new minimum capital level requirements applicable to the Company and the Bank under the Proposed Rules would be: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. Common equity Tier 1 capital would consist of retained earnings and common stock instruments, subject to certain adjustments.
The Proposed Rules would also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital requirements. The conservation buffer would consist entirely of common equity Tier 1 capital and, when added to the capital requirements, would result in the following minimum ratios: (i) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%. The new capital conservation buffer requirement would be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and would increase by that amount each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution would be subject to limitations on certain activities including payment of dividends, share repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers if its capital level is below the buffer amount.
The Proposed Rules would also revise the prompt corrective action framework, which is designed to place restrictions on insured depository institutions, including the Bank, if their capital levels do not meet certain thresholds. These revisions would be phased in beginning in 2013 and be fully implemented January 1, 2015. The prompt correction action rules would be modified to include a common equity Tier 1 capital component and to increase certain other capital requirements for the various thresholds. For example, under the proposed prompt corrective action rules, insured depository institutions would be required to meet the following capital levels in order to qualify as “well capitalized”: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8% (increased from 6%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5% (unchanged from current rules).
The Proposed Rules set forth certain changes in the methods of calculating certain risk-weighted assets, which in turn would affect the calculation of risk based ratios. These new calculations would take effect beginning January 1, 2015. Under the Proposed Rules, higher or more sensitive risk weights would be assigned to various categories of assets, including residential mortgages, certain credit facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property, certain exposures or credits that are 90 days past due or on accrual, foreign exposures and certain corporate exposures. In addition, the Proposal Rules include (i) alternative standards of credit worthiness consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act; (ii) greater recognition of collateral and guarantees; and (iii) revised capital treatment for derivatives and repo-style transactions.
The deadline for comments on the Proposed Rules is September 7, 2012. We cannot predict at this time when or in what form final rules will be adopted.
Economic Conditions
The Company’s business is closely tied to the economies of Idaho and Oregon in general and is particularly affected by the economies of Central, Southern and Northwest Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area. The uncertain depth and duration of the present sluggish economic conditions could cause further deterioration of these local economies, resulting in an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Real estate values in these areas have declined and may continue to fall or remain depressed for an uncertain amount of time. Unemployment rates in these areas continue to be high and could increase further. Business activity across a wide range of industries and regions has been impacted and local governments and many businesses are facing serious challenges due to uneven consumer spending driven by elevated unemployment and uncertainty. Recently, the national and regional economies and real estate price declines have appeared to show signs of stabilization. However, elevated unemployment and other indicators continue to suggest that the future direction of the economy remains uncertain.

Financial Highlights and Summary of the Second Quarter of 2012
| · | Second Quarter Net Income: $1.8 million or $0.04 per share |
| | |
| · | Credit Quality: Reserve for loan losses at $38.2 million or 4.52% of loans. No loan loss provision was made in the second quarter of 2012. |
| | |
| · | Credit Quality: Net charge-offs for the quarter were $5.7 million, or 2.70% of loans (annualized), up from $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2012 and $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2011. |
| | |
| · | Credit Quality: Non-performing assets were 1.70% of total assets at June 30, 2012, compared to 2.03% at March 31, 2012 and 6.29% at June 30, 2011. |
| | |
| · | Loans: Gross loans were down $24.3 million during the second quarter of 2012 and down $52.0 million year to date as a result of continued loan payoffs and paydowns. |
| | |
| · | Deposits: Total deposits were down $39.9 million during the second quarter of 2012 mainly a result of an expected decline in public funds. Year to date deposits are lower by $33.0 million |
| | |
| · | Net Interest Margin (“NIM”): NIM was 4.18% at June 30, 2012 compared to 4.31% at March 31, 2012 and 4.04% at December 31, 2011. |
The Company recorded net income of $0.04 per share or $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2012. This compares to the first quarter 2012 net income of $0.02 per share or $1.1 million and net income of $0.04 per share or $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2011.
For the second quarter of 2012, net interest income was $12.5 million compared to $13.1 million for the first quarter of 2012. This 4.7% decrease was mainly a result of the declining loan volumes. Interest income was lower by $799 thousand and interest expense was reduced by $182 thousand.
Non-interest income and non-interest expense were both up from the first quarter of 2012 by $473 thousand and $257 thousand, respectively. Non-interest income was increased over the first quarter of 2012 due to an increase in net mortgage banking income of approximately $517 thousand as a result of higher mortgage servicing revenue generated on increased origination volume. The increase in non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2012 was due to Director compensation in the form of vested stock awards and RSUs of approximately $243 thousand, increases in salaries, incentive commissions, self-insured healthcare costs and professional services. OREO expense decreased in the second quarter of 2012 relative to the first quarter of 2012 by $619 thousand, due primarily to reduced OREO valuation adjustments and a one-time $500 thousand expense in the first quarter of 2012 related to estimated remediation costs of a landslide that impacted an owned property.
At June 30, 2012, the Company’s gross loan portfolio was $845.5 million, down $24.3 million during the second quarter of 2012 and $52.0 million year to date. June 30, 2012 loans are lower by $280.8 million compared to June 30, 2011. These declines were due to customer payoffs and paydowns of loans due to reduced demand for borrowings generally in the sluggish economy and a highly competitive market for quality loans. In addition, a substantial portion of the decline in loan balances from a year ago is due to the September 2011 Bulk Sale of approximately $110.0 million (carrying amount) of certain non-performing, substandard and related performing loans, discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. It remains a priority to re-build loan origination volumes to offset payoffs and paydowns arising from the deleveraging economy and highly competitive marketplace for lending.
At June 30, 2012 total deposits were $1.1 billion, a decline of $39.8 million during the second quarter of 2012, $33.0 million from December 31, 2011 and down $101.3 million from the same period a year ago. The reduction in total deposits in the current quarter was primarily a result of movement of municipal deposits to the Oregon State sponsored municipal funds pool which carries an advantageous rate of return for public entities. On a year over year basis, the decline in deposits resulted primarily from lower internet deposits, the movement of municipal deposits described above and customer net deposit migration. Internet deposits decreased $53.7 million year-over-year owing to the Bank’s planned call and prepayment of internet deposits during 2011 including approximately $28.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. At June 30, 2012, the Bank had no internet sourced deposits. Total non-interest bearing deposits have increased $14.8 million over December 31, 2011 and at June 30, 2012 represent approximately 37% of the Bank’s total deposits compared to 34% of at year end.
At June 30, 2012, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.44%, 13.48% and 14.76%, Regulatory minimums for a “well-capitalized” bank are 5%, 6%, and 10% for Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital, respectively, although the Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 10% in order to be deemed “well-capitalized” under the Order. Bancorp’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.47%, 13.53% and 14.81%, respectively, as of June 30, 2012.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Six and Three Months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Income Statement
Net Income
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded net income of $0.06 per share or $2.8 million. Year-to-date results include a loan loss provision of $1.1 million, which was made in the first quarter of 2012. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded net income before extraordinary gain of $0.01 per share or $216 thousand and net income of $0.82 per share or $33.1 million after an extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of junior subordinated debentures of $32.8 million, net of tax, which is discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 was $0.04 per share or $1.8 million, compared to $0.04 per share or $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2011. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 includes a $25 thousand provision for income taxes, compared to $2.0 million credit for the same quarter of 2011. The decline in income tax expense is a result of calculations based on management’s current projections of estimated full-year pre-tax results of operations, estimated utilization of deferred tax assets on which a full valuation allowance was previously recorded, and other permanent book/tax differences.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $12.5 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to the $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2012, and $14.7 million in the second quarter one year ago. Net interest income was $25.6 million and $29.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This change is primarily a result of lower principal loan balances over the periods.
Interest income in the second quarter of 2012 decreased $799 thousand compared to the first quarter of 2012 and $3.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2011. The decrease in the second quarter of 2012 and year over year is mainly due to lower average earning loan balances. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase in volume of lower yielding securities as a percent of total earning assets, and lower interest reversed on non-performing loans in the same period a year ago.
Interest expense decreased $182 thousand or 12.4% from the first quarter of 2012 and $1.8 million or 57.6% compared to the second quarter of 2011. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was down $4.3 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. Reduced funding costs are primarily due to the repayment of internet deposits described above and lower borrowings in 2011. Total borrowings decreased $106.0 million from June 30, 2011 due to the payoff of $41.0 million in TLGP debt and $65.0 million of FHLB Advances in 2011. Borrowings are unchanged from December 31, 2011. Total deposits at June 30, 2012 decreased $33.0 million from December 31, 2011, due primarily to a reduction of interest bearing liabilities of $34.6 million and a $16.6 million decrease in time deposits. The reduction of these accounts were caused by an expected migration of municipal deposits to the Oregon State sponsored municipal funds pool which carries above market rate returns at this point in the rate cycle. At December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, there were no internet deposits on the Bank’s balance sheet.

Loan Loss Provision
The Company did not record a loan loss provision in the second quarter of 2012. A loan loss provision of $2.0 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2011. The Company recorded a loan loss provision of $1.1 million and $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This compares to provision expense for the fourth quarter of 2011 of $14.7 million whichwas affected by inclusion of losses incurred in 2011 bulk sale (discussed elsewhere in this report) in the Company’s historical loss factors for computation of pooled reserves as well as changes in the level of expected loss on impaired loans.
No loan loss provision was made in the second quarter of 2012 due in part to the reduction of total loans by $24.3 million from the first quarter of 2011. Additionally, historical loss factors for FAS 5 computation of pooled reserves have improved resulting in lower estimated reserve for loan loss.At June 30, the reserve for loan losses was approximately $38.2 million or 4.51% of outstanding loans compared to a prior quarter reserve for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans of 5.04% at December 31, 2011 and 3.62% for the second quarter of 2011.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company revised and continued to enhance its methodology for estimating the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses. The significant revisions to the methodology included (1) the application of historical loss factors by risk rating for each loan segment, as compared to the prior method which utilized blended historical loss factors, (2) a change to historical look-back periods, and (3) refinement of the qualitative factors and application thereof used to adjust the estimated historical loss factors. The reserve for loan losses at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were significantly affected by these revisions and enhancements to the Company’s methodology, as well as by the effects of charge-offs incurred in the 2011 Bulk Sale of certain loans (see Note 2) on its historical loss factors.
The reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $1.5 million at June 30, 2012, which remained unchanged from December 31, 2011, and compared to $941 thousand at June 30, 2011.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income in the second quarter of 2012 was $3.4 million as compared to $3.0 million in the most recent prior quarter and $2.8 million a year earlier. The increase in non-interest income in the second quarter of 2012 over the first quarter of 2012 and the second quarter of 2011 is mainly due to an increase in mortgage revenue resulting from increased residential mortgage origination volumes and related revenues. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased $925 thousand from the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to the increase discussed above of mortgage banking income by $1.7 million offset by a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of $713 thousand. The decreased service charges earned on deposit accounts is a result of lower transaction volume and regulatory changes enacted in 2011.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 was $14.2 million as compared to $13.9 million in the first quarter of 2012 and $15.5 million in the second quarter of 2011. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was down by $3.1 million compared to the same six-month period of 2011.
The increase in non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 compared to first quarter of 2012 was due to increased salaries and benefits including healthcare costs, incentive compensation and director compensation in the form of vested stock grants. These increases were partially offset by decreased OREO expenses of $619 thousand as compared to the first quarter of 2012. This decrease from prior quarter was the result of a $500 thousand OREO accrual for estimated redemption cost of a landslide in that period.
The $3.1 million decline in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily caused by a decrease in both OREO expenses and other expenses by $2.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively. These declines were offset by a $1.5 million increase in salaries and employee benefits. OREO expenses declined as a result of decreased valuation allowances made on owned property in the first six months of 2012 as compared to same six-month period of 2011 mainly part due utilization of the general OREO reserve designed to expedite sale of OREO in 2012. Other expenses incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were elevated compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 as a result of expenses related to the Capital Raise occurring in the first quarter of 2011. Salaries and employee benefits were increased in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same six-month period in 2011 because in the year ago period, the Company recorded a $600 thousand credit to its insurance stop loss estimate for self insured employee health care.
Income Taxes
During the six and three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded a net income tax provision of approximately $50 thousand and $25 thousand, respectively. During the six and three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded a net income tax provision of approximately $17.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Included in this amount was an income tax provision of approximately $22.1 million related to the extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of the Debentures, which was calculated based on the Company’s estimated statutory income tax rates. The net income tax provision of $17.7 million also includes a credit for income taxes of approximately $4.4 million related to the Company’s loss from operations excluding the extraordinary gain. Income tax provision or credit is calculated based on management’s current projections of estimated full-year pre-tax results of operations, estimated utilization of deferred tax assets on which a full valuation allowance was previously recorded, and other permanent book/tax differences. Accordingly, this calculation and the prospective income tax amounts are subject to adjustment as additional facts become available and management’s estimates are revised.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company maintained a valuation allowance of $51.4 million against the deferred tax asset. This amount represents a $1.1 million decrease from year-end 2011 due to changes in temporary differences between the financial statement and tax recognition of revenue and expenses and a reduction of deferred tax assets due to the application of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Management determined the amount of the deferred tax valuation allowance at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 by evaluating 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. The ability to utilize deferred tax assets is a complex process requiring in-depth analysis of statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance and estimates of future taxable income. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.
The issuance of common stock in connection with the Company’s successful completion of its Capital Raise in the first quarter of 2011 resulted in an “ownership change” of the Company, as broadly defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of the ownership change, utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and certain built-in losses under federal income tax laws will be subject to annual limitation. The annual limitation placed on the Company’s ability to utilize these potential tax deductions will equal the product of an applicable interest rate mandated under federal income tax laws and the Company’s value immediately before the ownership change. The annual limitation imposed under Section 382 may limit the deduction for both the carryforward tax attributes and the built-in losses realized within five years of the date of the ownership change. Given the limited carryforward period assigned to these tax deductions in excess of this annual limit, some portion of these potential deductions will be lost and, consequently, the related tax benefits may not be recorded in the financial statements.
Financial Condition
Capital Resources
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased total stockholders’ equity to $136.7 million at June 30, 2012, as compared to total stockholders’ equity of $132.9 million at December 31, 2011 and $212.6 million a year earlier. At June 30, 2012, the total common equity to total assets ratio was 10.7% and the Company’s basic book value per share was $2.90.
As discussed elsewhere in this report and in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, capital resources during 2011 were significantly affected by several factors including completion of the Capital Raise and extinguishment of the Debentures, and a $75.0 million loan loss provision for the year which was significantly impacted by charge offs of approximately $54.0 million, incurred in the Bulk Sale of approximately $110.0 million (carrying amount) of certain non-performing, substandard, and related performing loans, each of which is discussed in Note 2to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. The 2011 provision was also affected by risk rating changes within the loan portfolio, and changes in the level of expected loss on impaired loans.
June 30, 2012 regulatory capital ratios are as follows: Bancorp’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.47%, 13.53% and 14.81%, respectively, and the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.44%, 13.48% and 14.76%, respectively, which exceed regulatory benchmarks for a “well-capitalized” designation. Regulatory benchmarks for a “well-capitalized” designation are 5.00%, 6.00%, and 10.00% for Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital, respectively. However, as mentioned elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, pursuant to the Order, the Bank is required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 10.00% to be considered “well-capitalized”, which the Bank met as of June 30, 2012.Additional information regarding capital requirements are located in Note 13 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
From time to time the Company makes commitments to acquire banking properties or to make equipment or technology related investments of capital. At June 30, 2012, the Company had no material capital expenditure commitments apart from those incurred in the ordinary course of business.
Total Assets and Liabilities
Total assets were $1.28 billion at June 30, 2012, a decrease of $26.6 million from $1.30 billion at year-end 2011, mainly due to a $46.4 million decrease in loans and a $30.5 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by a $58.6 million increase in investment securities available for sale. The decline in cash and cash equivalents was primarily a result of a $25.8 million decline in interest bearing deposits, much of which is cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank. This decline was due to utilization of the Bank’s cash to purchase investment securities available for sale, as well as the decline in deposit accounts. Total liabilities at June 30, 2012 decreased $30.4 million from December 31, 2011 which was primarily due to the decline in deposits of approximately the same amount. Overall, interest bearing demand deposits decreased $34.6 million while time deposits decreased $16.6 million. Offsetting these declines were demand deposits that increased $14.8 million which is typical during the summer months for our customers. The overall net reduction in deposits was mainly a result of movement of municipal deposits to the Oregon State sponsored municipal funds pool. Total borrowings remained at $60.0 million at both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
At June 30, 2012, the Company’s gross loans were approximately $845.5 million, down $52.0 million from December 31, 2011 and $280.8 million from June 30, 2011. Since June 30, 2011, loans have declined primarily due to the Bulk Sale of approximately $110.0 million in non-performing, substandard and related performing loans (described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report) and ongoing loan payoffs and paydowns. Net charge-offs were $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2012 and $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2011.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
A summary of the Bank’s off-balance sheet commitments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is included in the following table (dollars in thousands):
| | June 30, 2012 | | | December 31, 2011 | |
| | | | | | |
Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 126,509 | | | $ | 149,452 | |
Commitments under credit card lines of credit | | | 23,042 | | | | 23,393 | |
Standby letters of credit | | | 8,324 | | | | 3,201 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total off-balance sheet financial instruments | | $ | 157,875 | | | $ | 176,046 | |
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 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 were 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 increase in standby letters of credit of $5.1 million from December 31, 2011 is due to one large standby letter of credit issued to a customer for $6.0 million, offset by slight decreases in other smaller letters of credit.
There are no other obligations or liabilities of the Company arising from its off-balance sheet arrangements that are or are reasonably likely to become material. In addition, the Company knows of no event, demand, commitment, trend or uncertainty that will result in or is reasonably likely to result in the termination or material reduction in availability of the off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company had no material off balance sheet derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
Liquidity
The objective of the Bank’s liquidity management is to maintain ample cash flows to meet obligations for depositor withdrawals, to fund the borrowing needs of loan customers, and to fund ongoing operations. At June 30, 2012, liquid assets of the Bank are mainly interest bearing balances held at FRB totaling $64.9 million compared to $88.8 million at December 31, 2011. The decline was a result of an anticipatedreduction in deposits in the second quarter related to movement of municipal deposits to the Oregon State Treasury sponsored municipal fund investment pool.
Core relationship deposits are the Bank’s primary source of funds. As such, the Bank focuses on deposit relationships with local business and consumer clients who maintain multiple accounts and services at the Bank. The Company views such deposits as the foundation of its long-term liquidity because it believes such core deposits are more stable and less sensitive to changing interest rates and other economic factors compared to large time deposits or wholesale purchased funds. The Bank’s customer relationship strategy has resulted in a relatively higher percentage of its deposits being held in checking and money market accounts, and a lesser percentage in time deposits.
The Bank augments core deposits with wholesale funds from time to time. The Bank is currently restricted under the terms of the Order from accepting or renewing brokered deposits. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company did not have any brokered deposits. Local relationship-based reciprocal CDARS deposits which are also technically classified as brokered deposits were also zero at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Bank had no internet sourced deposits compared to approximately $53.7 million at June 30, 2011. Such deposits were sourced by posting time deposit rates on an internet site where institutions seeking to deploy funds contact the Bank directly to open a deposit account. In December 2011 the Bank elected to repay its remaining internet deposits (approximately $28.0 million). These time deposits had rates ranging from 0.45% to 3.45% and maturities ranging from December 2011 to April 2014. In connection with these transactions, the Bank was required to pay interest through the scheduled maturity dates of the deposits totaling approximately $258 thousand.
With the recapitalization of the Bank in January 2011 and its becoming compliant with FDIC capital standards, restrictions on its acceptance of public fund deposits were subsequently lifted. Current rules imposed by the Oregon State Treasury require that the Bank collateralize 50% of the uninsured public funds held by the Bank. At June 30, 2012, the Bank was in compliance with this statute.
The Bank also utilizes borrowings and lines of credit as sources of funds. At June 30, 2012, the FHLB had extended the Bank a secured line of credit of $191.5 million (15.00% of total assets) accessible for short or long-term borrowings given sufficient qualifying collateral. As of June 30, 2012, the Bank had qualifying collateral pledged for FHLB borrowings totaling $180.8 million of which the Bank had utilized $60.0 million in secured borrowings. At June 30, 2012, the Bank also had undrawn borrowing capacity at FRB of approximately $23.5 million supported by specific qualifying collateral. Borrowing capacity from FHLB or FRB may fluctuate based upon the acceptability and risk rating of loan collateral, and counterparties could adjust discount rates applied to such collateral at their discretion. Also, FRB or FHLB could restrict or limit our access to secured borrowings. Correspondent banks have extended $30.1 million in unsecured or collateralized short-term lines of credit for the purchase of federal funds. At June 30, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these federal fund borrowing agreements.
Liquidity may be affected by the Bank’s routine commitments to extend credit.At June 30, 2012, the Bank had approximately $157.9 million in outstanding commitments to extend credit, compared to approximately $176.0 million at year-end 2011. At this time, management believes that the Bank’s available resources will be sufficient to fund its commitments in the normal course of business.
The investment portfolio also provides a secondary source of funds as investments may be pledged for borrowings or sold for cash. This liquidity is limited, however, by counterparties’ willingness to accept securities as collateral and the market value of securities at the time of sale could result in a loss to the Bank. As of June 30, 2012, the book value of unpledged investments totaled approximately $151.5 million compared to $114.2 million at December 31, 2011.
The Order further requires the Bank to maintain a primary liquidity ratio (net cash, plus net short-term and marketable assets divided by net deposits and short-term liabilities) of at least 15%. As of June 30, 2012, the Bank’s primary liquidity ratio was 26.49%.
Bancorp is a single bank holding company and the principal source of Bancorp’s cash revenues historically has been dividends received from the Bank. Oregon banking laws impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends by Oregon state chartered banks. The amount of the dividend may not be greater than the Bank’s unreserved retained earnings, deducting from that, to the extent not already charged against earnings or reflected in a reserve, the following: (1) all bad debts, which are debts on which interest is past due and unpaid for at least six months, unless the debt is fully secured and in the process of collection; (2) all other assets charged off as required by the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services or a state or federal examiner; and (3) all accrued expenses, interest and taxes of the institution. Since the Bank currently has retained earnings that are a negative $234.3 million, the Bank will not under Oregon law be able to pay any dividends until it has had sufficient positive earnings to return its negative retained earnings to a positive number or the Oregon Director permits the Bank to apply part of its paid-in capital to reduce the deficit in retained earnings. In addition, pursuant to the Order, the Bank is required to seek permission from its regulators prior to payment of cash dividends on its common stock. We do not expect the Bank to pay dividends to Bancorp for the foreseeable future.
Inflation
The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different than on non-banking companies since virtually all of a bank’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. In particular, interest rates are significantly affected by inflation, but neither the timing nor magnitude of the changes are directly related to price level indices; therefore, the Company can best counter inflation over the long term by managing net interest income and controlling net increases in noninterest income and expenses.
