The lack of provision for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was a result of continued improvement in credit quality of the loan portfolio offset by net growth in the loan portfolio. The related improvement in the credit quality of the loan portfolio relates to the factors below. The Company had recoveries, net of charge-offs, of $1,072,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 , compared with $842,000 of net recoveries for the same quarter one year ago. Non-performing assets amounted to $98,846,000 , or 0.67% , of total assets at December 31, 2015 , compared to $164,317,000 , or 1.13% of total assets at December 31, 2014 . Non-accrual loans decreased from $98,353,000 at December 31, 2014 , to $56,748,000 at December 31, 2015 , a 42.3% decrease. The percentage of delinquent loans decreased from 1.47% at December 31, 2014 , to 0.98% at December 31, 2015 . The reserve for unfunded commitments was $3,085,000 as of December 31, 2015 , which is unchanged since September 30, 2015 . Management believes the allowance for loan losses plus the reserve for unfunded commitments, totaling $110,986,000 , or 1.10% of gross loans, is sufficient to absorb estimated losses inherent in the portfolio. Acquired loans, including covered loans, are not usually classified as non-performing because at acquisition, the carrying value of these loans is recorded at fair value. As of December 31, 2015 , $25,223,000 in acquired loans were subject to the general allowance as the discount related to these balances was no longer sufficient to absorb all of the expected losses. The following tables show loans collectively and individually evaluated for impairment and the related allocation of general and specific reserves.

As of September 30, 2015 , $106,554,000 of the allowance was calculated under the formulas contained in our general allowance methodology and the remaining $275,000 was specific reserves on loans deemed to be individually impaired. The Company has an asset quality review function that analyzes its loan portfolios and reports the results of the review to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. The single-family residential, HELOC and consumer portfolios are evaluated based on their performance as a pool of loans, since no single loan is individually significant or judged by its risk rating, size or potential risk of loss. The construction, land, multi-family, commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans are risk rated on a loan by loan basis to determine the relative risk inherent in specific borrowers or loans. Based on that risk rating, the loans are assigned a grade and classified as follows: • Pass – the credit does not meet one of the definitions below. • Special mention – A special mention credit is considered to be currently protected from loss but is potentially weak. No loss of principal or interest is foreseen; however, proper supervision and Management attention is required to deter further deterioration in the credit. Assets in this category constitute some undue and unwarranted credit risk but not to the point of justifying a risk rating of substandard. The credit risk may be relatively minor yet constitutes an unwarranted risk in light of the circumstances surrounding a specific asset. • Substandard – A substandard credit is an unacceptable credit. Additionally, repayment in the normal course is in jeopardy due to the existence of one or more well defined weaknesses. In these situations, loss of principal is likely if the weakness is not corrected. A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified will have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets risk rated substandard. • Doubtful – A credit classified doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weakness makes collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The probability of loss is high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the asset, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition, or liquidation procedures, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral, and refinancing plans. • Loss – Credits classified loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. Losses should be taken in the period in which they are identified as uncollectible. Partial charge-off versus full charge-off may be taken if the collateral offers some identifiable protection. The following tables provide information on loans based on risk rating categories as defined above.
