The unaudited consolidated financial statements include Community West Bancshares ("Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Goleta National Bank ("Goleta"). All adjustments and reclassifications in the periods presented are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2002 interim financial statements to conform to the presentation used in the 2003 interim financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Community West Bancshares included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES -The Company maintains a detailed, systematic analysis and procedural discipline to determine the amount of the allowance for loan losses ("ALL"). The ALL is based on estimates and is intended to be adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. This process involves deriving probable loss estimates that are based on individual loan loss estimation, migration analysis/historical loss rates and management's judgment. The Company employs several methodologies for estimating probable losses. Methodologies are determined based on a number of factors, including type of asset, collateral value and the input of the Special Assets group, functioning as a workout unit. Management reviews the ALL on a monthly basis and records additional provision to the allowance as required. The review of the adequacy of the allowance takes into consideration such factors as changes in the growth, size and composition of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, collateral, guarantees and economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay and/or the value of the underlying collateral. These estimates depend on the outcome of future events and, therefore, contain inherent uncertainties. The Company's ALL is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb known and inherent probable losses on existing loans. A provision for loan losses is charged to expense. The allowance is charged for losses when management believes that full recovery on the loan is unlikely. Generally, the Company charges off any loan classified as a "loss"; portions of loans which are deemed to be uncollectible; overdrafts which have been outstanding for more than 30 days; and, all other unsecured loans past due 120 or more days. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ALL. INTEREST ONLY STRIPS AND SERVICING ASSETS - The Company often sells either a portion of, or the entire loan, into the secondary market. Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when loans are sold with servicing retained. Servicing assets are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated future net servicing income. Also, at the time of the loan sale, the Company recognizes the related gain on the loan sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company uses industry prepayment statistics and its own prepayment experience in estimating the expected life of the loans. Quarterly, management evaluates servicing assets for impairment, based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Fair value is determined using discounted future cash flows calculated on a loan by loan basis and aggregated to the total asset level. Impairment to the asset is recorded if the aggregate fair value calculation drops below net book value of the asset. Additionally, on some SBA loan sales, the Company has retained interest only ("I/O") strips, which represent the present value of excess net cash flows generated by the difference between (a) interest at the stated rate paid by borrowers and (b) the sum of (i) pass-through interest paid to third-party investors and (ii) contractual servicing fees. The Company determined the present value of this estimated cash flow at the time each loan sale transaction closed, utilizing valuation assumptions as to discount rate, prepayment rate and default rate appropriate for each particular transaction. Periodically, the Company verifies the reasonableness of its valuation estimates by comparison to the results of an independent third party valuation analysis. The I/O strips are accounted for like investments in debt securities classified as trading securities. Accordingly, the Company records the I/O's at fair value with any resulting increase or decrease in fair value recorded through operations in the current period. 7 SECURITIZED LOANS AND BONDS PAYABLE - In 1999 and 1998, respectively, the Company transferred $122 million and $81 million in loans to special purpose trusts ("Trusts"). The transfers have been accounted for as secured borrowings with a pledge of collateral and, accordingly, the mortgage loans and related bonds issued are included in the Company's balance sheet. Such loans are accounted for in the same manner as loans held to maturity. Deferred debt issuance costs and bond discount related to the bonds are amortized on a method which approximates the level-yield basis over the estimated life of the bonds. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related interpretations. Under APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock-based awards is measured as the excess, if any, of the market price of the underlying stock on the grant date over the employees' exercise price for the stock options. As all options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value at the grant date, no compensation expense has been recognized for the Company's stock option program. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires pro forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share using the fair value method, and provides that employers may continue to account for stock-based compensation under APB No. 25. In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amended SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amended the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002. The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. Although the Company has not currently elected to expense the fair value of stock options granted, it continues to evaluate this alternative. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, effective in the first quarter of 2003. The fair value of stock-based compensation to employees is calculated using the option pricing models that are developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable and fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which differ from the Company's stock option program. These models may require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect calculated value. The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED, JUNE 30, JUNE 30 ---------------------- --------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---------- ---------- -------- ----------- Annual dividend yield 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.00% Expected volatility 34.3% 45.1% 32.4% 45.1% Risk-free interest rate 3.5% 4.0% 3.8% 4.0% Expected life (in years) 7.3 7.3 7.3 7.3 SFAS No. 123 requires pro forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share using the fair value method. If the computed fair values of the awards had been amortized to expense over the vesting period of the awards, the Company's net income, basic net income per share and diluted net income per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts following: 8 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, JUNE 30, ----------------------- --------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---------- ----------- --------- ---------- Net income (loss): As reported $ 498 $ (1,972) $ 846 $ (2,921) Deduct: stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards net of related tax 36 34 69 65 ---------- ----------- --------- ---------- Pro forma $ 462 $ (2,006) $ 777 $ (2,986) ========== =========== ========= ========== Basic earnings (loss) per share: As reported $ .09 $ (.35) $ .15 $ (.51) Pro forma .08 (.35) .14 (.52) Diluted income (loss) per share: As reported $ .09 $ (.35) $ .15 $ (.51) Pro forma .08 (.35) .14 (.52) INCOME TAXES - As of December 31, 2002, the Company recognized that it was not certain that the future tax benefits related to the Company's state deferred tax assets would be realized and established a valuation allowance of $486,000. During the quarter, the Company was able to utilize $77,000 of these previously reserved amounts, resulting in a reduction to the Company's state tax expense.

FIN 45 changed current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. Guarantees meeting the characteristics described (and not included in a long list of exceptions) are required to be initially recorded at fair value, which is different from the general current practice of recording a liability only when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, as those terms are defined in FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. FIN 45 also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for virtually all guarantees. The FIN 45 disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ended after December 15, 2002, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 and existing guarantees for the interim period beginning July 1, 2003. Management does not believe that the impact of the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material impact on the Company or its financial statements. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. Currently, entities are generally consolidated by an enterprise when it has a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity. The Company was required to adopt this interpretation for new entities established after January 1, 2003 and for existing entities beginning July 1, 2003. Management is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of FIN 46. 2. LOAN SALES AND SERVICING SBA LOAN SALES - ---------------- The Company often sells the guaranteed portion of SBA loans into the secondary market, on a servicing retained basis, in exchange for a combination of a cash premium, servicing assets and/or I/O strips. The Company retains the 9 non-guaranteed portion of these loans and services the loans as required under the SBA programs to retain specified yield amounts. A portion of the yield is recognized as servicing fee income as it occurs and the remainder is capitalized as excess servicing and is included in the gain on sale calculation. The fair value of the I/O strips and servicing assets prior to April 1, 2002 was determined using a 9.25%-10.25% discount rate based on the term of the underlying loan instrument and a 13.44% prepayment rate. For loans sold after March 31, 2002, the initial values of the servicing assets and resulting gain on sale were calculated based on the difference between the best actual par and premium bids received for each individual loan. The balance of all servicing assets are subsequently amortized over the estimated life of the loans using an estimated prepayment rate of 22-25%. Quarterly, the servicing asset and I/O strip assets are analyzed for impairment. The SBA program stipulates that the Company retain a minimum of 5% of the unguaranteed portion of the loan balance. The percentage of each unguaranteed loan in excess of 5% can be periodically sold to a third party for a cash premium. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company had approximately $27.5 and $26.2 million, respectively, in SBA loans held for sale. A summary of activity in I/O strips and servicing assets follows: FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------------ I/O STRIPS 2003 2002 ----------- ----------- (IN THOUSANDS) Balance, beginning of period $ 4,548 $ 7,693 Additions through loan sales - 240 Valuation adjustments (540) (2,725) ----------- ----------- Balance, end of period $ 4,008 $ 5,208 =========== =========== FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ------------------------ SERVICING ASSETS 2003 2002 ----------- ----------- (IN THOUSANDS) Balance, beginning of period $ 1,897 $ 2,490 Additions through loan sales 460 382 Amortization (247) (181) Valuation adjustments - (762) ----------- ----------- Balance, end of period $ 2,110 $ 1,929 =========== =========== 3.

CAPITAL Goleta is currently operating under a consent order ("Order") with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"). Under the terms of the Order, among other things, Goleta is required to maintain total capital at least equal to 12% of risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital at least equal to 7% of adjusted total assets. The Order also places limitations on growth and payments of dividends until Goleta is in compliance with both the Order and receives the appropriate approval from the OCC. Goleta is required to submit monthly progress reports to the OCC detailing actions taken to comply with the Order, results of those actions, and a description of actions needed to achieve full compliance with the Order. As of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, Goleta had total capital to risk weighted assets of 14.04% and 13.31%, respectively, and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 12.79% and 12.04%, respectively. In addition, the Company is operating under a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federal Reserve Bank which requires, among other things, that the Company refrain from paying dividends without the approval of the Federal Reserve Bank. 6. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS The Company has entered into a financing arrangement with a third party by which its government-guaranteed securities can be pledged as collateral for short-term borrowings. As of June 30, 2003, under this agreement, the Company had borrowed $4.6 million at the rate of 1.31%, due April 29, 2004. 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The matters addressed in this Item 2 that are not historical information constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, and the Company can give no assurances that its expectations will prove to be correct. Actual results could differ from those described in the forward-looking statements because of numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These factors include, without limitation, those described below under the heading "Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this report and the other reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company does not undertake any obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and the related notes provided under "Item 1-Financial Statements" above. This discussion is designed to provide insight into management's assessment of significant trends related to the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and interest rate sensitivity. It should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-SECOND QUARTER COMPARISON The Company recorded net income of $498,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003, or $.09 per share, compared to a net loss of $2 million, or ($.35) per share, during the three months ended June 30, 2002 an increase of $2.5 million. Both basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2003 were $.09 compared to ($.35) for the comparable period in 2002. The following table sets forth for the periods indicated, certain items in the consolidated statements of income of the Company and the related changes between those periods: FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AMOUNT OF ------------------------------------- INCREASE JUNE 30, 2003 JUNE 30, 2002 (DECREASE) ------------------ ----------------- --------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) Interest income $ 5,199 $ 7,622 $ (2,423) Interest expense 2,427 3,442 (1,015) ------------------ ----------------- --------------- Net interest income 2,772 4,180 (1,408) Provision for loan losses 363 1,275 (912) ------------------ ----------------- --------------- Net interest income after provision for loan losses 2,409 2,905 (496) Non-interest income 2,517 2,697 (180) Non-interest expenses 4,171 9,002 (4,831) ------------------ ----------------- --------------- Income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes 755 (3,400) 4,155 Provision (benefit) from income taxes 257 (1,428) 1,685 ------------------ ----------------- --------------- Net income (loss) $ 498 $ (1,972) $ 2,470 ================== ================= =============== Earnings per share - Basic $ .09 $ (.35) $ .44 ================== ================= =============== Earnings per share - Diluted $ .09 $ (.35) $ .44 ================== ================= =============== Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased by 17% for the second quarter of 2003 from $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased by $1.4 million from $4.2 million to $2.8 million for the comparable period. Although declining interest rates have compressed the Company's net interest margin, the primary reason for the decline in interest margin between periods is the Company's exit from the 12 high yielding short-term consumer lending business. Provision for loan losses decreased 71.5% from $1.3 million for the second quarter 2002 to $363,000 for the second quarter 2003. The provision for loan losses decreased primarily due to the paydown in the securitized loan portfolio, the exit from the riskier short-term consumer and high-loan-to-value mortgage lending, and the strengthening of the credit underwriting standards in the SBA loan portfolio. Non-interest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, gains on sale of loans, servicing fees and other revenues not derived from interest on earning assets. Non-interest income for the second quarter 2003 decreased by $180,000, or 6.7%, compared to the second quarter 2002. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $197,000 in net gain on loan sales and a $148,000 reduction in document processing fees which were partially offset by a $197,000 increase in loan servicing income. Before the Company's exit from the alternative mortgage lending business in the second quarter of 2002, alternative mortgage loan sales had contributed $673,000 to the net gain on loan sales and $239,000 to document processing fees for the second quarter 2002. The decrease for the second quarter 2003 in gains on sale of loans and document processing fee income resulting from the termination of the alternative mortgage business line was partially offset by increases in mortgage loan gains on sale of loans and document processing fees and an increase in SBA net gains on loan sales. Total non-interest expenses decreased $4.8 million, or 53.7%, from $9 million for the second quarter 2002 to $4.2 million for the second quarter 2003. Non-interest expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment and other operating expenses. Included in non-interest expenses for the second quarter 2002 were a $1.8 million impairment writedown of the SBA interest only strips and servicing assets and a $1.3 million lower of cost or market provision on the HLTV loans held for sale. Also contributing to the decrease in non-interest expenses were the Company's exit from the alternative mortgage and short-term consumer lending businesses, relocation of the Company's mortgage department, consolidation of the SBA lending support functions and general cost cutting measures which resulted in a $1.2 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits and occupancy expense from $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $3.3 million for the same period in 2003. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTH COMPARISON FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AMOUNT OF ------------------------------ INCREASE JUNE 30, 2003 JUNE 30, 2002 (DECREASE) -------------- --------------- ----------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Interest income $ 10,379 $ 15,201 $ (4,822) Interest expense 5,045 7,306 (2,261) -------------- --------------- ----------- Net interest income 5,334 7,895 (2,561) Provision for loan losses 708 3,551 (2,843) -------------- --------------- ----------- Net interest income after provision for loan losses 4,626 4,344 282 Non-interest income 5,186 6,085 (899) Non-interest expenses 8,526 15,465 (6,939) -------------- --------------- ----------- Income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes 1,286 (5,036) 6,322 Provision (benefit) from income taxes 440 (2,115) 2,555 -------------- --------------- ----------- Net income (loss) $ 846 $ (2,921) $ 3,767 ============== =============== =========== Earnings per share - Basic $ .15 $ (.51) $ .66 ============== =============== =========== Earnings per share - Diluted $ .15 $ (.51) $ .66 ============== =============== =========== The Company earned $846,000 for the first half of 2003, an increase of $3.8 million compared to the same period of 2002. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $.15 compared to ($.51) for the comparable period in 2002. Net interest income after allowance for loan losses increased 6.5% from $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $4.6 million for the equivalent period in 2003. Total interest income decreased $4.8 million from $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This decrease was partially offset by a decrease in total interest expense of $2.3 million from $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Provision for loan losses declined 80% to $708,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Non-interest income declined $899,000 from $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Non-interest expenses declined $6.9 million or 44.6% from $15.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The general decline in interest rates, the termination of the high-yield short-term 13 consumer lending business, the annualized prepayment rate of 44% experienced in Goleta's securitized loan portfolio and the Company's internal cost reduction programs are the primary reasons for the decreases in interest income, interest expense, provision for loan losses, and non-interest expense. INTEREST RATES AND DIFFERENTIALS The following table illustrates average yields on our interest-earning assets and average rates on our interest-bearing liabilities for the years indicated. These average yields and rates are derived by dividing interest income by the average balances of interest-earning assets and by dividing interest expense by the average balances of interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. Amounts outstanding are averages of daily balances during the applicable period.

Net interest income is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest expense paid on deposits and other liabilities. The amount by which interest income will exceed interest expense depends on the volume or balance of earning assets compared to the volume or balance of interest-bearing deposits and liabilities and the interest rate earned on those interest-earning assets compared to the interest rate paid on those interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. It is used to measure the difference between the average rate of interest earned on assets and the average rate of interest that must be paid on liabilities used to fund those assets. To maintain its net interest margin, the Company must manage the relationship between interest earned and paid. FINANCIAL CONDITION Average assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $297.4 million compared to $307 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Average equity increased to $33.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, from $32.7 million for the same period in 2002. The book value per share increased to $5.79 at June 30, 2003 from $5.35 at June 30, 2002. 15 AMOUNT OF PERCENT OF SELECTED BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNTS JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, INCREASE INCREASE (IN THOUSANDS) 2003 2002 (DECREASE) (DECREASE) --------- ------------- ----------- ----------- Cash and cash equivalents $ 24,429 $ 31,094 $ (6,665) (21.4%) Time deposits in other financial institutions 1,584 2,277 (693) (30.4%) Federal reserve bank stock 812 812 - - Investment securities held-to-maturity 9,717 6,012 3,705 61.6% Investment securities available-for-sale 6,149 - 6,149 - I/O strips 4,008 4,548 (540) (11.9%) Loans - Held for sale 40,516 43,284 (2,768) (6.4%) Securitized loans, net 49,407 63,624 (14,217) (22.3%) Loans - Held for investment, net 148,705 138,948 9,757 7.0% Total Assets $ 297,277 $ 307,210 $ (9,933) (3.2%) ========= ============= =========== =========== Total Deposits $ 217,986 $ 219,083 $ (1,097) (.5%) Securities sold under agreements to repurchase 4,600 - 4,600 - Bonds payable in connection with securitized loans 37,773 50,473 (12,700) (25.2%) Total Liabilities 264,341 275,123 (10,782) (3.9%) Total Stockholders' Equity 32,936 32,087 849 2.6% Total Liabilities and Stockholder's Equity $ 297,277 $ 307,210 $ (9,933) (3.2%) ========= ============= =========== =========== 16 Total assets of the Company declined $9.9, million or 3.2%, from $307.2 million at December 31, 2002 to $297.3 million at June 30, 2003. This decrease was primarily due to the continued net reductions in the two securitized loan pools of $14.2 million as well as a $2.8 million reduction in loans held for sale. The reduction in loans held for sale included a $4.1 million reduction in mortgage loans held for sale and a net increase in SBA guaranteed loans held for sale of $1.3 million. These decreases in loans were partially offset by a net increase in other loan types of $9.1 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $6.7 million, or 21.4%, from $31.1 million at December 31, 2002 to $24.4 million at June 30, 2003. The Company continues to use these funds primarily to purchase additional investment securities and fund loans. Investment securities increased by $9.9 million, or 163.9%, from $6 million at December 31, 2002 to $15.9 million at June 30, 2003. The Company held $6.1 million of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2003. The Company used the investment securities to enhance net interest income and as collateral for short-term borrowings as needed for liquidity purposes. Total loans decreased by $8.4 million, or 3.3%, from $251.8 million at December 31, 2002 to $243.4 million at June 30, 2003. This decrease was primarily due to the continued principal reductions of the securitized loans. The securitized loan portfolio decreased $14.7 million, or 22.2%, from $66.2 million at December 31, 2002 to $51.5 million at June 30, 2003. As the Company has discontinued high-loan-to-value lending and plans no more securitization activity, these loans will continue to run off. Based on the actual performance of the first half of 2003, the securitized portfolio would experience an annualized reduction of over 44%. All other held for investment loan types increased by 6.4% from $142.3 million at December 31, 2002 to $151.4 million at June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due to a $10.8 million increase in commercial, commercial real estate and construction loans and a $4.1 million increase in manufactured housing loans. The Company's manufactured housing portfolio increased from $28.2 million at December 31, 2002 to $32.3 million at June 30, 2003. These increases were partially offset by a $4.1 million decrease in net held for investment SBA loans and a $1.7 million net decrease in all other types of loans. Held-for-sale loans decreased $2.8 million from $43.3 million at December 31, 2002 to $40.5 million at June 30, 2003. This decrease was primarily due to a $4.1 million net decrease in mortgage loans from $17.1 million at December 31, 2002 to $13 million at June 30, 2003 which was partially offset by a net increase, after selling $18.1 million in SBA guaranteed loans, of $1.3 million in SBA loans held-for-sale. All other types of assets decreased by $5 million, or 24.5%, from $20 million at December 31, 2002 to $15 million at June 30, 2003. This decrease is primarily due to receipt of tax refunds of $2.6 million and a $1.1 million reduction in other receivables due to the continued payoff in the securitized loan pools and the exit from short-term consumer lending. The following schedule shows the balance and percentage change in the various deposits: AMOUNT OF PERCENT OF JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, INCREASE INCREASE 2003 2002 (DECREASE) (DECREASE) -------- ------------- ----------- ---------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Non-interest-bearing deposits $ 37,016 $ 39,698 $ (2,682) (6.7%) Interest-bearing deposits 34,384 35,169 (785) (2.2%) Savings 15,967 11,377 4,590 40.3% Time certificates of $100,000 or more 20,563 25,325 (4,762) (18.8%) Other time certificates 110,056 107,514 2,542 2.3% -------- ------------- ----------- ---------- Total deposits $217,986 $ 219,083 $ (1,097) (.5%) ======== ============= =========== ========== The Company's deposits decreased slightly by .5%, or $1.1 million, from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Time certificates over $100,000 experienced a decrease from $25.3 million to $20.6 million, or 18.8%, non-interest-bearing deposits decreased from $39.7 million to $37 million, or 6.7%, and interest-bearing deposits decreased from $35.2 million to $34.4 million or 2.2%. These decreases were offset by an increase in savings deposits from $11.4 million to $16 million, and an increase in other time certificates of deposit $2.5 million from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Net bonds payable in connection with securitized loans decreased by $12.7 million, or 25.2%, from $50.5 million at December 31, 2002 to $37.8 million at June 30, 2003. The bonds will continue to pay down as a correlation result of the securitized loan payoffs. All other liabilities decreased by $1.6 million from $5.6 million at December 31, 2002 to $4 million at June 30, 2003, due to various miscellaneous changes. 17 ASSET QUALITY AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES Total ALL decreased $1.1 million, or 19%, from $5.9 million at December 31, 2002 to $4.8 million at June 30, 2003. Of this decrease, $566,000 or 51.5%, relates to the exit from short-term consumer lending and the elimination in the ALL net of charge-offs and recoveries, $451,000 relates to decreases in the ALL required for securitized loans as a result of the continued paydown in the portfolios and the remaining $83,000 decrease primarily relates to the net decrease in impaired loans. During the second quarter 2003, the Company received $1.5 million in payoffs of impaired loans that had specific reserves of $153,000 at March 31, 2003. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays or payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis. When determining the possibility of impairment, management considers the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. For collateral dependent loans, the Company uses the fair value of collateral method to measure impairment. All other loans, except for securitized loans, are measured for impairment based on the present value of future cash flows. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for all loans in the portfolio except for the securitized loans, which are evaluated for impairment on a collective basis. The recorded investment in loans that is considered to be impaired: JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, 2003 2002 ---------- -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Impaired loans without specific valuation allowances $ - $ - Impaired loans with specific valuation allowances 5,503 8,394 Specific valuation allowances allocated to impaired loans (966) (1,278) ---------- -------------- Impaired loans, net $ 4,537 $ 7,116 ========== ============== Average investment in impaired loans $ 7,010 $ 7,565 ========== ============== The following schedule reflects recorded investment at the dates indicated in certain types of loans: JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, 2003 2002 ---------- -------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Nonaccrual loans $ 9,747 $ 13,965 SBA guaranteed portion of loans included above (5,951) (8,143) ---------- -------------- Nonaccrual loans, net $ 3,796 $ 5,821 ========== ============== Troubled debt restructured loans, gross $ 502 $ 829 Loans 30 through 89 days past due with interest accruing 2,326 5,122 Allowance for loan losses to gross loans 2.0% 2.4% Total nonaccrual loans declined $4.2 million from $14 million at December 31, 2002 to $9.8 million at June 30, 2003. Goleta generally repurchases the guaranteed portion of SBA loans from investors when those loans become past due 120 days. After the foreclosure and collection process is complete, the SBA reimburses Goleta for this principal balance. Therefore, although these balances do not earn interest during this period, they generally do not result in a loss of principal to Goleta. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT The Company has established policies as well as analytical tools to manage liquidity. Proper liquidity management ensures that sufficient funds are available to meet normal operating demands in addition to unexpected customer demand for funds, such as high levels of deposit withdrawals or increased loan demand, in a timely and cost 18 effective manner. The Company's liquidity management is viewed from both a long-term and short-term perspective as well as from an asset and liability perspective. Management monitors liquidity through regular reviews of maturity profiles, funding sources and loan and deposit forecasts to minimize funding risk. The Company has asset/liability committees ("ALCO") at the Board and Goleta management level to review asset/liability management and liquidity issues. The Company maintains strategic liquidity and contingency plans. The liquidity ratio of the Company was 25% and 24% at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003, respectively. The liquidity ratio consists of cash and due from banks, deposits in other financial institutions, available for sale investments, federal funds sold and loans held for sale, divided by total assets. In 2003, the Company has invested more resources in the purchase of government-guaranteed investment securities and obtained a financing arrangement allowing it to pledge these securities as collateral for short-term borrowing. During the second quarter 2003, the Company used this arrangement to borrow $4.6 million at 1.31%, due April 29, 2004. This arrangement allows for additional borrowing capacity and provides improved flexibility in managing the Company's liquidity. The Company, through the Bank, also has the ability as a member of the Federal Reserve System, to borrow at the discount window up to 50% of what is pledged at the Federal Reserve Bank. On January 9, 2003, the Reserve Bank replaced the existing discount window program with new primary and secondary credit programs. GNB qualifies for primary credit as it has been deemed to be in sound financial condition. The rate on primary credit is 50 basis points less than the secondary credit rate and generally is granted on a "no questions asked basis" at a rate that initially will be at 100 basis points above the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) target federal funds rate (currently at 1%). As the rate is currently not attractive, it is unlikely it will be used as a regular source of funding, but is noted as available as an alternative funding source. CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's equity capital was $32.9 million at June 30, 2003. Under the Prompt Corrective Action provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, national banks are assigned regulatory capital classifications based on specified capital ratios of the institutions. The capital classifications are "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" and "critically undercapitalized." The relevant capital ratios of the institution in this determination are (i) the ratio of Tier I capital (primarily common stock and retained earnings less goodwill and other intangible assets) to adjusted average total assets (the "Tier I capital to average assets ratio"), (ii) the ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets (the "Tier I risk-based capital ratio"), and (iii) the ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets (the "total risk-based capital ratio"). To be considered "well capitalized," an institution must have a Tier I capital to average assets ratio of at least 5%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of at least 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%. Generally, for an institution to be considered "adequately capitalized" these three ratios must be at least 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively. An institution will generally be considered (1) "undercapitalized" if any one of these three ratios is less than 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively, and (2) "significantly undercapitalized" if any one of these three ratios is less than 3%, 3% and 6%, respectively. Additionally, an institution may not be deemed to be well capitalized if it is operating under an agreement with its principal regulator, as in the case of Goleta. See "Supervision and Regulation-Consent Order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC")."

The banking regulatory scheme serves not to protect investors, but is designed to maintain a safe and sound banking system, to protect depositors and the FDIC insurance fund, and to facilitate the conduct of sound monetary policy. In furtherance of these goals, Congress and the states have created several largely autonomous regulatory agencies and enacted numerous laws that govern banks, bank holding companies, and the banking industry. Consequently, the Company's growth and earnings performance, as well as that of Goleta, may be affected not only by management decisions and general economic conditions, but also by the requirements of applicable state and federal statutes and regulations and the policies of various governmental regulatory authorities, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB"), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") and the California Department of Financial Institutions ("DFI"). For a detailed discussion of the regulatory scheme governing the Company and Goleta, please see the discussion in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation - Supervision and Regulation." CONSENT ORDER WITH THE OFFICE OF THE COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY On October 28, 2002, Goleta entered into a Consent Order ("Order") with its principal regulator, the OCC. As of this date, the Order replaced the Formal Agreement with the OCC. The Order requires that Goleta maintain certain capital levels, adhere to certain operational and reporting requirements and take certain actions. In compliance with the terms of the Order, Goleta has taken the following actions: submits monthly progress reports that inform the OCC of the progress made towards compliance with the Order; has ceased all short-term consumer lending as of December 31, 2002 and has completed the required loan file audit of short-term consumer loans; has written and implemented both a three-year capital and strategic plan; has achieved and maintained the required capital levels as stated in the Order; and has implemented a risk management program. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Order could adversely affect the safety or soundness of Goleta. Management believes it is in substantive compliance with the provisions of the Order. MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANK In March 2000, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with its principal regulator, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("Reserve Bank"). The MOU requires that the Company maintain certain capital levels and adhere to certain operational and reporting requirements. The Company believes that it is in substantive compliance with the MOU. FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - ----------------------------------------------------------- The Company's short and long-term success is subject to many factors that are beyond its control. Shareholders and prospective investors in the Company should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to other information contained in this report. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described below. INTEREST RATE RISK The Company is exposed to different types of interest rate risks. These risks include lag, repricing, basis and prepayment risk. To mitigate the impact of changes in market interest rates on the Company's interest-earning 20 assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the amounts and maturities are actively managed. Short-term, adjustable-rate assets are generally retained as they have similar repricing characteristics as our funding sources. The Company sells mortgage products and a portion of its SBA loan originations. The held for sale mortgage loans have no pricing or interest rate risk as they are covered by delivery commitments to investors. While the Company has some interest rate exposure in excess of five years, it has internal policy limits designed to minimize risk should interest rates rise. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to help manage risk, but will consider such instruments in the future if the perceived need should arise. The Company's ability to originate, purchase and sell loans is also significantly impacted by changes in interest rates. Increases in interest rates may also reduce the amount of loan and commitment fees received by the Company. A significant decline in interest rates could also decrease the size of the Company's servicing portfolio and the related servicing income by increasing the level of prepayments. The Company does not currently utilize any specific hedging instruments to minimize exposure to fluctuations in the market price of loans and interest rates with regard to loans held for sale in the secondary mortgage market. Therefore, in the short time between when the Company originates and sells the loans, the Company is exposed to decreases in the market price of such loans due to increases in interest rates. DEPENDENCE ON REAL ESTATE Approximately 53% of the loan portfolio of the Company is secured by various forms of real estate, including residential and commercial real estate. A decline in current economic conditions or rising interest rates could have an adverse effect on the demand for new loans, the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans and the value of real estate and other collateral securing loans. The real estate securing the Company's loan portfolio is concentrated in California. If real estate values decline significantly, especially in California, higher vacancies and other factors could harm the financial condition of the Company's borrowers, the collateral for its loans will provide less security, and the Company would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There has been no material change in the Company's market risk since the end of the last fiscal year. For information about the Company's market risk, see the information contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk," which is incorporated herein by this reference. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of the Company's management, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer believe that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in making known to them material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in this report. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity's disclosure objectives. The likelihood of achieving such objections is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors or mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established process. There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting, known to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer, that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - ------ ----------------- There has been no material change in the Company's legal proceedings since the end of the last fiscal year. For information about the Company's legal proceedings, see the information contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption "Item 3. Legal Proceedings," which is incorporated herein by this reference. OTHER LITIGATION 21 The Company is involved in various other litigation of a routine nature which is being handled and defended in the ordinary course of the Company's business. In the opinion of management, based in part on consultation with legal counsel, the resolution of these other litigation matters will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
