BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Cerritos Valley Bancorp (the "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 principals have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial position at September 30, 1999, and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles on a basis consistent with the Company's audited financial statements, and these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form S-4 for the year ended December 31, 1998. NOTE 2 -MERGER AND ACQUISITION On September 7, 1999, the shareholders of the Company approved a merger and reorganization under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger by and among Belvedere Capital Partners, Inc., as General Partner of The California Community Financial Institutions Fund, Limited Partner (the "Fund"), Cerritos Merger Company, Cerritos Valley Bancorp and Cerritos Valley Bank (the "Agreement") which became effective September 13, 1999. Under the Agreement, each outstanding share of the Company stock was converted into cash in the amount of $13.4871 and 0.5271 shares of Company stock. As a result of this merger, the Company redeemed shares from and paid dividends to its shareholders and issued 81,000 warrants to acquire additional shares of stock. Immediately following the completion of the merger, there were approximately 1,071,937 shares of Cerritos Valley Bancorp common stock outstanding, consisting of 543,959 shares issued to the Fund in the merger and the remainder issued to the existing shareholders. In addition the Company purchased 75,000 shares of its outstanding stock from James N. Koury, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, pursuant to a stock purchase rights amendment agreement. Upon completion of the merger, the Fund owned 54.56% of the Company. 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Financial Condition Cerritos Valley Bancorp (the "Company"), holding company for Cerritos Valley Bank (the "Bank"), recorded net earnings of $545,808, or $0.55 basic earnings per share, for the third quarter of 1999, compared with net earnings of $372,202, or $0.37 per share, for the third quarter of 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company had net earnings of $1,262,756, or $1.27 basic earnings per share, compared to $1,134,315, or $1.13 basic earnings per share for the same period in 1998. The Company had diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 1999 of $0.51 per share and $1.19 diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in net earnings for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1999 were primarily the result of an increase in average interest earning assets of $17,080,000 and $20,807,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, a decline in yields on interest earning assets, and emphasis on expense control. Loans The following table sets for the amount of loans outstanding by category and the percentage of each category to the total loan portfolio. September 30, 1999 December 31, 1998 ------------------------ ------------------------ Amount % of Total Amount % of Total ------------ ----------- ------------ ----------- Commercial $22,536,608 35.73% $22,665,354 37.08% Construction 7,607,152 12.06% 6,918,400 11.32% Real estate 30,507,009 48.36% 28,714,130 46.97% Installment 2,430,051 3.85% 2,830,655 4.63% ------------------------ ----------------------- Subtotal 63,080,820 100.00% 61,128,539 100.00% Less: Deferred loan fees (90,260) (56,812) Allowance for loan losses (1,179,330) (1,237,680) ------------ ------------ Net loans $61,811,230 $59,834,047 ============ ============ It is management's intent to continue to increase interest income with the addition of loans which meet the Bank's underwriting criteria. 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. 10 The following table sets forth information about non-performing assets 90 days or more past due and continuing to accrue and certain ratios. September 30, 1999 December 31, 1998 ------------------ ----------------- (in thousands) Nonperforming loans (1) $ - $ 199 Other real estate owned - - ------------------ ----------------- Total nonperforming assets $ - $ 199 ------------------ ----------------- Accruing loans 90 days or more past due $ 1,326 $ 517 ------------------ ----------------- Nonperforming loans to total loans 0.00% 0.33% Nonperforming assets to total loans 0.00% 0.33% to total assets 0.00% 0.16% (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. 11 Nine Months Ended Year Ended September 30, 1999 December 31, 1998 ------------------ ----------------- Balance at beginning of period $ 1,237,680 $ 1,155,839 Provision for loan losses 130,000 310,000 Loan charge-offs (206,662) (309,888) Recoveries on loans previously charged-off 18,312 81,729 ------------------ ----------------- Net charge-offs (recoveries) (188,350) (228,159) ------------------ ----------------- Balance at end of period $ 1,179,330 $ 1,237,680 ================== ================= Loans outstanding at end of period $ 63,080,820 $ 61,128,539 Average loans outstanding during period $ 65,921,499 $ 57,081,000 Net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans outstanding -0.29% -0.40% Allowance for loan losses: to total loans 1.87% 2.17% to nonperforming loans 0.00% 621.95% to nonperforming assets 0.00% 621.95% 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 contractual principal and interest payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured on 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 no impaired loans as of September 30, 1999. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during the first nine months of 1999 was approximately $40,441 and no income was recorded utilizing the cash basis and accrual basis method of accounting. The Company had approximately $199,000 in impaired loans as of December 31, 1998. The allowance for loan losses related to impaired loans at December 31, 1998 was $149,434. The average recorded investment in impaired loans was $380,000 during the year 1998. Total cash collected on impaired loans during the year ended December 31, 1998 was $173,848, of which $169,417 was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans and $4,431 was recognized as interest income. 12 The Company had approximately $292,497 in impaired loans as of September 30, 1998. The allowance for loan losses related to impaired loans at September 30, 1998 was $191,101. The average recorded investment in impaired loans was $366,162 during the first nine months of 1998. Total cash collected on impaired loans during the first nine months of 1998 was $115,044, of which $113,140 was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans and $1,904 was recognized as interest income.

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 September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998: September 30, 1999 December 31, 1998 Amount % of Total Amount % of Total Checking noninterest $ 47,434,660 40.99% $ 33,314,390 33.74% Checking interest-bearing and savings 24,525,686 21.20% 24,873,713 25.19% Money market accounts 12,045,711 10.41% 7,942,643 8.04% Time certificates of deposit under $100,000 14,156,577 12.23% 13,480,453 13.65% Time certificates of deposit $100,000 and over 17,547,998 15.17% 19,120,417 19.37% ------------ -------- ------------ -------- $115,710,632 100.00% $ 98,731,616 100.00% ============ ======== ============ ======= 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 15 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 September 30, 1999. For Capital Actual Adequacy Purposes ---------------------- ---------------------- (in thousands) Amount Ratio Amount Ratio --------- ---------- ---------- --------- Company Leverage $10,497 7.72% $5,441 4.00% Tier 1 risk-based 10,497 12.48% 3,363 4.00% Total risk-based 11,548 13.76% 6,727 8.00% Bank Leverage $10,442 7.68% $5,441 4.00% Tier 1 risk-based 10,442 12.42% 3,363 4.00% Total risk-based 11,493 13.69% 6,725 8.00% As indicated in the above table, the Bank has exceeded all applicable regulatory capital guidelines at September 30, 1999. 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. In the third quarter of 1999, the shareholders of the Company approved a merger and reorganization under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger by and among Belvedere Capital Partners, Inc., as General Partner of The California Community Financial Institutions Fund, Limited Partner (the "Fund"), Cerritos Merger Company, Cerritos Valley Bancorp and Cerritos Valley Bank (the "Agreement"). Under the Agreement, each outstanding share of the Company stock was converted into cash in the amount of $13.4871 and 0.5271 shares of Company stock. As a result of this merger, the Company redeemed shares from and paid dividends to its shareholders and issued warrants to acquire additional shares of stock. Immediately following the completion of the merger, there were approximately 1,071,937 shares of Cerritos Valley Bancorp common stock outstanding, consisting of 543,959 shares issued to the Fund in the merger and the remainder issued to the existing shareholders. In addition the Company purchased 75,000 shares of its outstanding stock from James N. Koury, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, pursuant to a stock purchase rights amendment agreement. Issuance costs associated with the transaction of $384,371 were deducted from the proceeds of common stock. Total stockholders' equity at September 30, 1999 was $9,857,766 compared to 16 $12,416,650 at December 30, 1998. The primary difference between total stockholders' equity is a result of dividends paid to facilitate the abovementioned merger. 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. 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 nine months ended September 30, 1999, federal funds sold averaged $10,833,000 compared to $10,175,000 for the same period in 1998. 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 September 30, 1999 were $35,360,755 and $5,090,728, respectively. Year 2000 Compliance The Year 2000 issue presents a very real and significant challenge to the Company, along with the entire financial services industry. This problem has the potential to affect a wide range of systems and equipment, including software and hardware, utilities, communications platforms and devices, and facilities. The Year 2000 issue relates to the fact that many computer programs used only two digits to represent a year, such as "98" 17 to represent "1998," which means that in the Year 2000 such programs could produce inaccurate or unpredictable results. Such occurrences may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or business as the Company, like most financial organizations, is significantly subject to the potential Year 2000 issues due to the nature of financial information. Federal banking regulators have responsibility for supervision and examination of banks to determine whether each institution has an effective plan for identifying, renovating, testing and implementing solutions for Year 2000 processing and coordinating Year 2000 processing required to assess the soundness of a bank's internal controls and to identify whether further corrective action may be necessary to assure and appropriate level of attention to Year 2000 processing capabilities. While no one can accurately predict what will happen with the date change to the year 2000, the Company's management and Board of Directors take the potential risks seriously, and have been working since early in 1997, and will continue to work to be prepared for the Year 2000 transition. Cerritos Valley has a written plan to address the risks associated with the impact of the Year 2000. The plan directs Cerritos Valley's Year 2000 compliance efforts under the framework of a five-step program mandated by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (the "FFIEC"). The FFIEC's five-step program consists of five phases: awareness, assessment, renovation, validation and implementation. In the awareness phase, which Cerritos Valley has completed, the Year 2000 problem is defined and executive level support for the necessary phase, which Cerritos Valley has also completed, the size and complexity of the problem and details of the effort necessary to address the Year 2000 issues are assessed. Although the awareness and assessment phases are completed, Cerritos Valley continues to evaluate new issues as they arise. In the renovation phase, which Cerritos Valley has substantially completed, the required incremental changes to hardware and software components are tested. In the validation phase, which Cerritos Valley has also substantially completed, the hardware and software components are tested. In the implementation phase changes to hardware and components are brought on line. The implementation phase is complete. Cerritos Valley is utilizing both internal and external resources to identify, correct and test its systems for Year 2000 compliance. Based on information received from its vendors, Cerritos Valley believes most of its vendors are Year 2000 compliant as of September 30, 1999. Testing of the critical system applications for the core banking products provided by Cerritos Valley's primary vendors has been completed and the results were all satisfactory. The core banking product includes general ledger, accounts payable, certificates of deposit and individual retirement accounts, commercial and installment loans, checking and savings accounts, proof of deposit applications and ancillary support products. Cerritos Valley is also making efforts to ensure that its customers, particularly its significant customers, are aware of the Year 2000 problem. Cerritos Valley has sent Year 18 2000 correspondence to its significant deposit and loan customers. Starting in November of 1997, Cerritos Valley mailed 368 letters with questionnaires to all customers who maintained $50,000 or more in deposits. Cerritos Valley received 261 responses back, which equals a 70.9% response rate. In addition, Cerritos Valley mailed 75 letters with risk assessment questionnaires to customers with loan balances greater than $100,000 covering 64% of the entire loan portfolio. As of September 1999, Cerritos Valley received a 100% response from these loan customers either by direct contact or by a follow-up to the letter. Currently, all new depositors who maintain $50,000 or more in deposits, and new loan customers with loan balances greater than $100,000 are surveyed when a new account is opened or a loan is funded. After reviewing the responses from the loan customers, Cerritos Valley Bank classified two loans with loan balances totaling $849,000 as "high risk," and 28 loans with balances totaling $8,272,000 as "medium risk." The high risk customers are being monitored by Cerritos Valley Bank on an ongoing basis. A customer of Cerritos Valley is deemed significant if the customer possesses any of the following characteristics: - - Total indebtedness to Cerritos Valley Bank of $100,000 or more. - - The customer's business is dependent on the use of high technology and/or the electronic exchange of information. - - The customer's business is dependent on third party providers of data processing services or products. - - An average ledger deposit balance greater than $50,000. - - Collateral taken by Cerritos Valley Bank which could become impaired by Year 2000 problems. - - Unsecured lines of credit from which borrowers can draw funds at will. Cerritos Valley has amended its credit authorization documentation to include consideration of the Year 2000 problem. Cerritos Valley assesses its significant customer's Year 2000 readiness and assigns the customer and assessment of "low," "medium" or "high" risk. Risk evaluation of Cerritos Valley's significant customers was completed on December 31, 1998. Any depositor or lending customer determined to have a high or medium risk is scheduled for an evaluation by Cerritos Valley every 90 days until the customer can be assigned a low risk assessment. Because of the range of possible issues and large number of variables involved, it is impossible to quantify the total potential cost of Year 2000 problems or to determine Cerritos Valley's worst-case scenario in the event Cerritos Valley's Year 2000 remediation efforts or the efforts of those with whom it does business are not successful. In order to deal with the uncertainty associated with the Year 2000 problem, Cerritos 19 Valley is developing a contingency plan to address the possibility that efforts to mitigate the Year 2000 risk are not successful either in whole or part. These plans include manual processing of information for critical information technology systems and increased cash on hand. The contingency plans were completed by March 31, 1999, after which the appropriate implementation training was scheduled to take place. As of September 30, 1999, Cerritos Valley has incurred approximately $74,000 in Year 2000 costs, which have been expensed as incurred. Results of Operations The Company reported consolidated net earnings of $545,808 for the third quarter of 1999, compared with net earnings of $372,202 for the third quarter of 1998. Basic earnings per share for the third quarter of 1999 were $0.55 per share compared to $0.37 for the same quarter of 1998. Diluted earnings per share were $0.51 per share as compared to $0.34 for the same period in 1998. For the first nine months of 1999, the Company reported net earnings of $1,262,756 compared to $1,134,315 for the same period in 1998. Basic earnings per share were $1.27 and $1.13 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and diluted earnings per share were $1.19 and $1.05 for the same period in 1999 and 1998, respectively. 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 September 30, 1999, net interest income increased 12.1% to $1,670,720 from $1,489,837 for the same period in 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, net interest income was $4,766,753 and $4,364,767, respectively. The increase in net income for the third quarter ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998, is primarily the result of a 16.38% or $17,080,000 increase average interest earning assets outstanding during the quarter offset by a decline in yield of interest-earning assets. The yield on interest-earning assets declined 54 basis points to 8.08% in the first nine months of 1999 compared to the same period in 1998. The decline in yield is a result of increased competition for quality loans and the overall growth and change in mix in the investment and loan portfolios . For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 average interests earning assets grew 21.6% to $117,084,000 as compared to $96,277,000 for the same period in 1998. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, the net interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets) was 5.56% and 5.45% respectively, compared to 5.54% and 6.06% for the same respective periods in 1998. 20 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 (000's) and rates for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.

Interest income increased $272,081 to $2,452,791 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $2,180,710 for the same period in 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, interest income increased $864,824, or 13.9%, to $7,075,128 from $6,210,304 for the same period in 1998. Interest earned on loans increased 13.1% and 11.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company continues to benefit from modest growth in the loan portfolio and strong liquidity which is invested in the investment portfolio. Overall, average interest-earning assets increased $20,807,000, or 21.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998. Interest expense represents interest paid on deposits and other borrowings. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $782,071 compared to $690,873 for the same period in 1998, an increase of 13.2%. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, interest expense increased to $2,308,375 from $1,845,537, or 25.08% for the same period in 1998. The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, is primarily the result of an increase in TT&L/FHLB borrowings, interest expense for TT&L/FHLB borrowings increased from $176,450 for 23 the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $555,627 for the same period in 1999. TT&L/FHLB borrowings averaged $13,223,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $3,828,000 for the same period in 1998. 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 $130,000 as a provision for loan losses during the first nine months of 1999 compared to $250,000 for the same period in 1998. The decrease in the provision for loan losses in 1999 is in response to management's assessment of the improvement in the loan portfolio and the resulting decrease in nonperforming loans. Loans charged off net of recoveries were $188,350 and $228,159 for the first nine months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total gross loans was 1.91% at September 30, 1999, and 2.17% at September 30, 1998. In management's opinion, the balance of the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1999, was sufficient to sustain any foreseeable losses in the loan portfolio at that time. Noninterest Revenue For nine months ended September 30, 1999, noninterest revenue totaled $1,206,844 compared to $1,154,010 for the same period in 1998. The increase was primarily related to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charge and income. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense for the first nine months of 1999, increased to $3,705,937 from $3,446,063 for the same period in 1998. The increase occurred primarily in Occupancy and Professional expense categories. Occupancy expense increased $65,863 to $269,558 primarily as a result of the addition of a new branch location in April 1998. The increase in Professional expense category is 24 primarily in legal fees and other professional fees which increased $181,701 from $252,075 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $433,776 for the same period in 1999. The increase in legal is primarily due to litigation arising from credit resolution resulting in a decrease in nonperforming assets. Income Taxes For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the provision for income taxes was $874,904 compared to $688,399 for the same period in 1998. 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 liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. Cerritos Valley'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. Cerritos Valley 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 of otherwise repricing within such period is greater than the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or otherwise repricing within the same period. Cerritos Valley has a negative gap measured with 12 months period. From one year and beyond, the negative gap changes to a positive gap. In addition, Cerritos Valley uses interest rate shock analysis to estimate the effect of certain hypothetical rate changes on income and capital on a present value basis. Cerritos Valley 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, Cerritos Valley Bank does not pay any broker to obtain deposits and therefore is able to price its deposit below competitive prices. Based upon Cerritos Valley's shock analysis, net interest income is expected to rise with increasing rates and fall with declining rates. Cerritos Valley'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 49.7% of its loan portfolio reprices and matures over a 1 year period. On the liability side, the majority of Cerritos Valley'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. 25 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. Cerritos Valley uses an internal reference rate for pricing loans which changes at a slower rate than prime. For fixed term loans, Cerritos Valley 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, Cerritos Valley 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 Company'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 September 30, 1999. The table also set 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 rates 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.
