In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods covered have been made. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations The financial position at March 31, 2000, and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles on a basis consistent with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, and these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward -Looking Information The discussions contained in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are intended to provide information to facilitate the understanding as assessment of the consolidated financial statements and footnotes and should be read and considered in conjunction therewith. These discussions include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act regarding management's beliefs, estimates, projections, and assumptions with respect to future operations. Actual results and operations for any future period may vary materially from those projected herein and from past results discussed herein. Overview Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide a better understanding of the material changes in trends to the financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity of the Company. The following presentation is prepared as of the dates and for the periods indicated. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company's business strategy is to offer a broad range of commercial banking products and services to individuals and business in its primary service area with an emphasis upon customer service, efficiency, and personalized services. The Company's business strategy is to increase its market share of loans and deposits by focusing upon the banking needs of local businesses, including retail, professional and real estate-related activities, and individuals living and working in the Southern California communities of Norwalk, Artesia, Huntington Park and Glendale. The Company's results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on its loan portfolio, securities and other earning assets, and its cost of funds, consisting of interest paid on its deposits and borrowings. The Company's operating results are also impacted by provisions for loan losses, and to lesser extent service charges on deposit accounts and other noninterest income. In addition, the Company's operating expenses principally consist of salaries, wages and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, professional services, and other general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates and actions of regulatory authorities. 10 Financial Condition Cerritos Valley Bancorp (the "Company"), holding company for Cerritos Valley Bank (the "Bank"), recorded net earnings of $328,798, or $0.33 basic earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2000, compared with net earnings of $351,778, or $0.35 basic earnings per share, for the first quarter of 1999. The Company had diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2000 of $0.29 per share and $0.32 diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 1999. Loans The following table sets for the amount of loans outstanding by category and the percentage of each category to the total loan portfolio. March 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Amount % of Total Amount % of Total --------------- ------------ --------------- ------------ Commercial $ 26,354,670 40.64% $ 27,913,786 40.95% Construction 4,644,306 7.16% 6,487,052 9.52% Real estate 32,134,841 49.56% 31,241,895 45.83% Installment 1,709,724 2.64% 2,526,134 3.70% --------------- ------------ --------------- ------------ Subtotal 64,843,541 100.00% 68,168,867 100.00% Less: Deferred loan fees (75,951) (86,054) Allowance for loan losses (1,275,078) (1,277,141) --------------- --------------- Net loans $ 63,492,512 $ 66,805,672 =============== =============== The Company actively monitors maturities and repricing activities within its loan portfolio. Constructions loans decreased 28.4% during the period ended March 31, 2000 to $4,644,306 from $6,487,052 at December 31, 1999, as a result of scheduled maturities. In accordance with management's credit administration and regulatory policy, loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection or in the process of renewal. 11 The following table sets forth information about non-performing assets 90 days or more past due and non accruing, 90 days or more past due and continuing to accrue, and certain ratios. March 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 --------------------- --------------------- (dollars in thousands) Nonperforming loans (1) $ 1,425 $ 514 Other real estate owned - - --------- ------- Total nonperforming assets $ 1,425 $ 514 ========= ======= Accruing loans 90 days or more past due $ 1,400 $ 1,354 ========= ======= Nonperforming loans to total loans 2.20% 0.75% Nonperforming assets to total loans 2.20% 0.75% to total assets 1.13% 0.41% (1) Nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets do not include accruing loans 90 days or more past due. The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by management to provide for potential loan losses. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level which it considers to be adequate to provide for potential losses based on presently known conditions, there can be no assurances that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts, thereby adversely affecting future results of operations. The calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and therefore the requisite amount of provision for loan losses, is based on several factors, including underlying loan collateral values, delinquency trends and historical loan loss experience, all of which can change without notice based upon economic conditions and other factors. The following table sets forth information about the allowance for loan losses. 12 Three months ended Three months ended March 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 --------------------- -------------------- Balance at beginning of period $ 1,277,141 $ 1,237,680 Provision for loan losses 15,000 240,000 Loan charge-offs (22,028) (225,747) Recoveries on loans previously charged-off 4,965 25,208 --------------------- -------------------- Net charge-offs (recoveries) (17,063) (200,539) Balance at end of period $ 1,275,078 $ 1,277,141 ===================== ==================== Loans outstanding at end of period $ 64,843,540 $ 68,168,867 Average loans outstanding during period $ 66,640,806 $ 65,745,280 Net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans outstanding 0.03% 0.31% Allowance for loan losses: to total loans 1.97% 1.87% to nonperforming loans 89.48% 248.47% to nonperforming assets 89.48% 248.47% Management considers a loan to be impaired when, based upon available information and current events, it believes that it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due on a timely basis in accordance with the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Impairment is recognized by the establishment of a valuation allowance equal to the excess of the Company's recorded investment in the loan over its measured value. The Company had $1,433,121 in impaired loans as of March 31, 2000. The general allowance for loan losses related to impaired loans at March 31, 2000 was $229,599. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2000 was approximately $1,431,000. Total cash collected on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $21,384 of which $13,338 was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans and $8,046 was recognized as interest income. Interest income that would have been recognized on impaired loans if they had performed in accordance with the terms of the loans was approximately $25,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000. 13 Investment Securities The following table sets forth the amortized cost and fair value of securities available-for-sale as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999: March 31, 2000 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Amortized Estimated cost Gains Losses fair value -------------- ------------ -------------- ----------------- U.S. Treasury securities $ 498,344 $ - $ 1,779 $ 496,565 Obligations of other U.S. Government agencies and corporations 26,361,159 - 1,113,681 25,247,478 Mortgage-backed securities 2,007,513 - 19,387 1,988,126 Obligations of state and political subdivisions 1,808,815 606 31,805 1,777,616 Corporate bonds 4,036,046 - 292,871 3,743,175 ============== ============ ============== ================= $ 34,711,877 $ 606 $ 1,459,523 $ 33,252,960 ============== ============ ============== ================= December 31, 1999 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Amortized Estimated cost Gains Losses fair value --------------- ------------- ------------- ------------------ U.S. Treasury securities $ 497,853 $ - $ 508 $ 497,345 Obligations of other U.S. Government agencies and corporations 26,406,357 - 1,034,314 25,372,043 Mortgage-backed securities 2,103,941 - 13,884 2,090,057 Obligations of state and political subdivisions 1,808,300 494 25,748 1,783,046 Corporate bonds 4,037,237 - 264,227 3,773,010 --------------- ------------- ------------- ------------------ $ 34,853,688 $ 494 $ 1,338,681 $ 33,515,501 =============== ============= ============= ================== The amortized cost and fair value of securities held-to-maturity as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows: 14 March 31, 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Amortized Estimated cost Gains Losses fair value --------------- ------------- --------------- ------------------- Obligations of other U.S. Government agencies and corporations $2,000,000 $0 $59,830 $ 1,940,170 Mortgage-backed securities 664,921 754 10,890 $ 654,785 Obligations of state and - political subdivisions 823,851 13,484 15,277 $ 822,058 --------------- ------------- --------------- ------------------- $ 3,488,772 $ 14,238 $ 85,997 $ 3,417,013 =============== ============= =============== =================== December 31, 1999 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Amortized Estimated cost Gains Losses fair value --------------- ------------- ------------ ------------------ Obligations of other U.S. Government agencies and corporations $ 2,000,000 $ - $ 71,771 $ 1,928,229 Mortgage-backed securities 680,124 2,666 2,629 680,161 Obligations of state and political subdivisions 823,802 14,133 16,860 821,075 --------------- ------------- ------------ ------------------ $ 3,503,926 $ 16,799 $ 91,260 $ 3,429,465 =============== ============= ============ ================== During the three months ended March 31, 2000, and the year ended December 31, 1999, there were no sales of available-for-sale securities.

The Company attracts deposits primarily from individuals and businesses within the Company's primary service area in the Southern California communities of Norwalk, Artesia, Huntington Park and Glendale. The Company has no brokered deposits and the Company's practice is to not purchase brokered deposits. The following table sets forth the amount of deposits by category and the percentage of each category to all deposits as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999: 15 March 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Amount % of Total Amount % of Total ---------------- ------------ ----------------- ----------- Checking noninterest $ 33,978,995 33.88% $ 35,789,486 35.20% Checking interest-bearing and savings 25,053,827 24.98% 23,497,164 23.11% Money market accounts 12,746,097 12.71% 11,248,567 11.06% Time certificates of deposit under $100,000 13,373,397 13.34% 13,363,696 13.14% Time certificates of deposit $100,000 and over 15,125,764 15.08% 17,765,391 17.47% ---------------- ------------ ----------------- ----------- $ 100,278,080 100.00% $101,664,304 100.00% ================ ============ ================= =========== Capital The Federal Reserve Bank (the "FRB"), the Company's primary regulator, has established minimum leverage ratio guidelines. For institutions which have received the highest composite regulatory rating and which are not experiencing or anticipating significant growth are required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 3% Tier 1 capital to total assets. All other institutions are required to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio of at least 100 to 200 basis points above the 3% minimum requirements. Risk-based capital standards were implemented on December 31, 1992. Since December 31, 1992, banking organizations have been expected to meet minimum ratio for qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, 4.0% of which must be Tier 1 capital. A banking organization's risk-based capital ratios are obtained by dividing its qualifying capital by its total risk-adjusted assets and risk-weighted off-balance sheet items. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act of 1991 contains "prompt corrective action" provisions pursuant to which insured depository institutions are to be classified into one of five categories based primarily upon capital adequacy, ranging from "well-capitalized" to "critically undercapitalized" and which require, subject to certain exceptions, the appropriate federal banking agency to take prompt corrective action with respect to an institution which becomes "undercapitalized" and to take additional actions if the institution becomes "significantly undercapitalized" or critically undercapitalized." The following table presents the capital ratios for the Company and the Bank, compared with the standards for "well-capitalized" depository institutions (which standards do not apply to bank holding companies) and the minimum required capital ratios to be deemed "adequately capitalized" under applicable federal regulations, as of March 31, 2000. 16 For Capital Actual Adequacy Purposes ------------------------------- --------------------------- (dollars in thousands) Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ------------ ----------------- ------------ ------------ Company Leverage $ 11,088 8.81% $ 5,033 4.00% Tier 1 risk-based 11,088 13.29% 3,326 4.00% Total risk-based 12,130 14.54% 6,652 8.00% Bank Leverage $ 11,023 8.76% $ 5,032 4.00% Tier 1 risk-based 11,023 13.26% 3,324 4.00% Total risk-based 12,065 14.52% 6,649 8.00% As indicated in the above table, the Company and the Bank have exceeded all applicable regulatory capital guidelines at March 31, 2000. Cerritos Valley's management believes that, under the current regulations, Cerritos Valley Bank will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. Management of the Company is not aware of any trends, events, uncertainties or recommendations by regulatory authorities that will have or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the capital resources, liquidity or operations of the Company. Liquidity The Company's primary source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank. Dividends from the Bank to the Company are subject to the restrictions set forth in the California Financial Code. The California Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its shareholder in an amount which exceeds the lesser of (1) the retained earnings or (2) the net income of the bank for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of any distributions made by the bank to its shareholders during that period; however, a bank may, with the approval of the Department of Financial Institutions, make a distribution to its shareholders in an amount not exceeding the greatest of: - - the retained earnings of the bank, - - the net income of the bank for its last fiscal year, or - - the net income of the bank for its current fiscal year. If the Commissioner of the Department of Financial Institutions finds that the shareholders' equity of a bank is not adequate or that the payment of a dividend would be unsafe or unsound for the bank, the Commissioner of the Department of Financial Institutions may order the bank not to a pay dividend to the shareholders. In addition, Cerritos Valley Bank as a state-chartered bank is also subject to dividend restrictions set forth by the FDIC. 17 The Bank's primary sources of liquidity are federal funds sold to other banks, the investment securities portfolio and borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan Bank. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, federal funds sold averaged $5,007,197 compared to $8,402,433 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, a decrease of 40.4%. In addition, securities in the available-for-sale portfolio can be sold in response to liquidity needs or used as collateral for advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Securities held-to-maturity are available for liquidity needs primarily as collateral. The fair value of securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at March 31, 2000 were $33,252,959 and $3,417,013, respectively. Results of Operations The Company reported consolidated net earnings of $328,798 for the first quarter of 2000, compared with net earnings of $351,778 for the first quarter of 1999. Basic earnings per share for the first quarter of 2000 were $0.33 per share compared to $0.35 for the same quarter of 1999. Diluted earnings per share were $0.29 per share for the first quarter 2000 as compared to $0.32 for the same period in 1999. Net Interest Income The Company's earnings depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments less the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. For the quarter ended March 31, 2000, net interest income decreased 1.8% or $26,616 to $1,474,025 from $1,500,641 for the same period in 1999. The decrease in net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999, is primarily the result of a 3.5% or $4,093,000 decrease average interest-earning assets outstanding during the quarter. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 average interest-earning assets declined to $109,850,000 as compared to $113,943,000 for the same period in 1999. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the net interest margin was 5.36%, compared to 5.26% for the same respective period in 1999. The 3.6% decline in average interest-earning assets was offset by a .06% increase in interest yield on average interest-earning assets. Total average interest-earning assets yielded 8.10% for the first quarter 2000 compared to 8.04% for the first quarter 1999. The following tables present the distribution of average assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity as well as the total dollar amount of interest income from average interest-earning assets and resultant yields, and the dollar amounts of interest expense and average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999: 18 Three months ended Three months ended March 31, 2000 March 31, 1999 ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Average Yield/ Average Yield/ (dollars in thousands) Balance Rate Interest Balance Rate Interest ----------- ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Assets Interest-earning assets: Securities $ 38,280 5.96% $ 567 $ 40,818 5.58% $ 560 Loans 66,563 9.52% 1,575 64,628 10.04% 1,601 Federal funds sold 5,007 5.52% 69 8,402 4.61% 96 Interest-earning deposits - 0.00% - 95 2.13% 1 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total interest-earning assets 109,850 8.10% 2,211 113,943 8.04% 2,258 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred loan fees (88) (94) Allowance for loan losses (1,281) (1,253) Noninterest-earning assets Cash and due from banks 10,440 8,701 Premises and equipment 1,721 1,899 Other assets 5,172 3,948 ----------- ------------ Total assets $ 125,814 $ 127,144 =========== ============ Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity Interest-bearing liabilities Interest-bearing demand deposits $12,133 1.49% 45 $11,429 1.46% 41 Savings and money market deposits 24,492 2.72% 165 22,317 2.59% 143 Time deposits under $100,000 14,466 4.16% 150 13,808 4.67% 159 Time deposits over $100,000 14,928 5.29% 197 19,096 4.81% 226 Othr borrowings - FHLB 11,963 5.60% 167 12,640 5.72% 178 Capital lease & TT&L & Other 636 8.91% 14 544 7.97% 11 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 78,618 3.77% 738 79,834 3.85% 758 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Noninterest-bearing liabilities Noninterest-bearing demand deposits 34,908 32,982 Other liabilites 2,262 1,845 Shareholders' equity 10,026 12,484 ----------- ------------ Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $125,814 $127,145 =========== ============ 5.36% $1,473 5.26% $1,500 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ The Company's net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as "volume change." It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and interest rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a "rate change. Interest income represents interest earned on loans, investment securities and federal funds sold. Interest income decreased $46,947 to $2,211,279 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $2,258,226 for the same period in 1999. Interest earned on loans decreased 1.6% or $25,124 to $1,575,388 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1,600,512 for the same period ended March 31, 1999. Overall, average interest- 19 earning assets decreased approximately $4,093,000 or 3.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. Interest expense represents interest paid on deposits and other borrowings. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $737,254 compared to $757,585 for the same period in 1999, a decrease of 2.8%. The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000, is primarily related to a decrease in interest-bearing deposits and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Interest-bearing deposit expense decreased from $568,774 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $556,472 for the same period in 2000. Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings averaged $11,963,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to $12,640,000 for the same period in 1999, a decrease of 5.4%. Provision for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses is determined by management based upon the Company's loan loss experience, the performance of loans in the Company's portfolio, the quality of loans in the Company's portfolio, the evaluation of collateral for such loans, the economic conditions affecting collectibility of loans, the prospects and financial condition of the respective borrowers or guarantors and other such factors which in management's judgment deserve recognition in the estimation of probable loan losses. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance or to take charge-offs (reductions in the allowance) in anticipation of losses. Management allocated $15,000 as a provision for loan losses during the first three months of 2000 compared to $85,000 for the same period in 1999. The decrease in the provision for loan losses in 2000 is in response to management's assessment of the improvement in the loan portfolio. Loans charged off, net of recoveries, were $17,063 and $177,092 for the first three months of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total gross loans was 1.97% at March 31, 2000, and 1.79% at March 31, 1999. In management's opinion, the balance of the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2000, was sufficient to sustain any foreseeable losses in the loan portfolio at that time. Noninterest Revenue For the three months ended March 31, 2000, other operating income totaled $460,443 compared to $383,764 for the same period in 1999. The increase was primarily related to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charge and income. 20 Noninterest Expense Other operating expenses for the first three months ended March 31, 2000, increased to $1,396,028 from $1,204,433 for the same period in 1999. The increase occurred primarily in other operating expenses, which includes professional expense categories. The increase in professional expense category is primarily in legal fees and other professional fees, which increased $160,116 from $611,185 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $771,301 for the same period in 2000. The increase in legal is primarily due to litigation arising from credit resolution resulting in a decrease in non-performing assets. Income Taxes For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the provision for income taxes was $194,642 compared to $243,194 for the same period in 1999. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Bank's market risk arises primarily from interest rates risk inherent in its loan and deposit functions and management actively monitors and manages this interest rate risk exposure. The Bank does not have any market risk sensitive instruments entered into for trading purposes. Management uses several different tools to monitor its interest rate risk. One measure of exposure to interest rate risk is gap analysis. A positive gap for a given period means that the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or otherwise repricing within such period is greater than the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or otherwise repricing within the same period. The Bank has a negative gap measured within the next 12 month period. From one year and beyond, the negative gap changes to a positive gap. In addition, the Bank uses interest rate shock analysis to estimate the effect of certain hypothetical rate changes on income and capital on a present value basis. The Bank uses an internal reference rate index to price its loans. This reference rate is not automatically adjusted when the Wall Street prime rate is lowered. As a result, the Bank does not pay any broker to obtain deposits and therefore is able to price its deposit below competitive prices. Based upon the Bank's shock analysis, net interest income is expected to rise with increasing rates and fall with declining rates. The Bank's positive gap after one year is the result of the majority of investments having terms greater than one year on the asset side. Also, approximately 48.1%of its loan portfolio reprices and matures over a one year period. On the liability side, the majority of the Bank's time deposits have an average term life of less than 1 year while savings accounts, NOW accounts and money market accounts are recorded for gap analysis in the next day to three month category because they do not have a contractual maturity date. The borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank have an average term life greater than three years. 21 Taking into consideration that savings accounts and other interest-bearing transaction accounts typically do not react immediately to changes in interest rates, management has taken the following steps to manage its positive interest rate gap. The Bank uses an internal reference rate for pricing loans, which changes at a slower rate than prime. For fixed term loans, The Bank uses Federal Home Loan Bank advances to match the funding of the loans in order to protect the spread over the life of the loan. Also, the Bank holds the majority of its investments in the available-for-sale category in order to be able to react to changes in interest rates. The following table sets forth the distribution of repricing opportunities of the Bank's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the interest rate sensitivity gap, i.e. interest rate sensitive assets less interest rate sensitive liabilities, the cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap and the cumulative gap as a percentage of total interest-earning assets as of March 31, 2000. The table also sets forth the time periods within which interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities will mature or may reprice in accordance with their contractual terms. The interest rate relationships between the repriceable assets and repriceable liabilities are not necessarily constant. The table should be used only as a guide as to the possible effect changes in interest rates might have on the net margins of the Company.
