Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance or business. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, are based on certain assumptions and are generally identified by use of the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "forecasts," "intends," "plans," "targets," "potentially," "probably," "projects," "outlook" or similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "may," "will," "should," "would" and "could." Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, assumptions and statements about, among other things, expectations of the business environment in which we operate, projections of future performance or financial items, perceived opportunities in the market, potential future credit experience, and statements regarding our mission and vision. These forward-looking statements are based upon current management expectations and may, therefore, involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results, performance, or achievements may differ materially from those suggested, expressed, or implied by forward-looking statements as a result of a wide variety or range of factors including, but not limited to: the credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and trend of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in our allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses that may be impacted by deterioration in the housing and commercial real estate markets and may lead to increased losses and non-performing assets, and may result in our allowance for loan losses not being adequate to cover actual losses and require us to materially increase our reserves; changes in economic conditions in general and in California, Washington, and New Mexico; changes in the levels of general interest rates and the relative differences between short and long-term interest rates, loan and deposit interest rates; our net interest margin and funding sources; fluctuations in the demand for loans, the number of unsold homes, land and other properties and fluctuations in real estate values in our market areas; secondary market conditions for loans and our ability to sell loans in the secondary market; results of examinations of us by regulatory authorities and the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, limit our business activities, require us to change our business mix, increase our allowance for loan and lease losses, write-down asset values or increase our capital levels, or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, which could adversely affect our liquidity and earnings; risks related to our acquisition strategy, including our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, exposure to potential asset and credit quality risks and unknown or contingent liabilities, the need for capital to finance such transactions, our ability to obtain required regulatory approvals and possible failures in realizing the anticipated benefits from acquisitions; challenges arising from attempts to expand into new geographic markets, products, or services; our ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, clients, systems, and management personnel we may acquire into our operations and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames and any goodwill charges related thereto; legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business including changes in banking, securities and tax law, and regulatory policies and principles, or the interpretation of regulatory capital or other rules, including changes related to Basel III; the impact of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the implementing regulations; our ability to attract and retain deposits; increases in premiums for deposit insurance; our ability to control operating costs and expenses; the use of estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets and liabilities, which estimates may prove to be incorrect and result in significant changes in valuation; difficulties in reducing risk associated with the loans and securities on our balance sheet; staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our work force and potential associated charges; the failure or security breach of computer systems on which we depend, or the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems or on the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing
3
functions, which could expose us to litigation or reputational harm; an inability to keep pace with the rate of technological advances; our ability to retain key members of our senior management team and our ability to attract, motivate and retain qualified personnel; costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments; our ability to implement our business strategies and manage our growth; future goodwill impairment due to changes in our business, changes in market conditions, or other factors; our ability to manage loan delinquency rates; liquidity issues, including our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary; the loss of our largest loan and depositor relationships; the occurrence of adverse weather or manmade events, which could negatively affect our core markets or disrupt our operations; increased competitive pressures among financial services companies; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules, or regulations or to respond to regulatory actions; our ability to pay dividends on our common stock, and interest or principal payments on our junior subordinated debentures; adverse changes in the securities markets; inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us; statements with respect to our intentions regarding disclosure and other changes resulting from the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 ("JOBS Act"); changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines and practices, as may be adopted by the financial institution regulatory agencies, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or the Financial Accounting Standards Board; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services; and the other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including our prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act on May 4, 2018, and in this quarterly report.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report might not occur, and you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Moreover, you should treat these statements as speaking only as of the date they are made and based only on information then actually known to us. We do not undertake and specifically disclaim any obligation to revise any forward-looking statements included in this report or the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements, whether as a result of new information or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. These risks could cause our actual results for 2018 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by, or on behalf of, us and could negatively affect our consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations as well as our stock price performance.
As used throughout this report, the terms "we," "our," "us," "BayCom," or the "Company" refer to BayCom Corp and its consolidated subsidiary, United Business Bank (formerly known as Bay Commercial Bank), which we sometimes refer to as "the Bank," unless the context otherwise requires.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
BayCom Corp (the "Company") is a bank holding company headquartered in Walnut Creek, California. United Business Bank (the "Bank"), the wholly owned banking subsidiary, is a California state-chartered bank which provides a broad range of financial services primarily to local small and mid-sized businesses, service professionals and individuals. In the 14 years of operation, the Bank has grown to 17 full service banking branches. The main office is located in Walnut Creek, California and branch offices are located in Oakland, Castro Valley, Mountain View, Napa, Stockton (2), Pleasanton, Livermore, San Jose, Long Beach, Sacramento, San Francisco and Glendale, California, and Seattle, Washington (2) and Albuquerque, New Mexico. In addition, the Bank has one loan production office in Los Angeles, California. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on consolidated net earnings or shareholders' equity.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with Topic 606, revenues are recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company assesses the goods or services that are promised within each contract and identifies those that contain performance obligations, and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
All of the Company's revenue from contracts with customers in scope of ASC 606 is recognized in noninterest income and included in our commercial and consumer banking segment. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized $87,000 in deposit fees, and $53,000 in debit card

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
interchange fees considered in scope of ASC 606, and $542,000 of noninterest income considered not in scope of ASC 606.
On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an "emerging growth company" we may delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Accordingly, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
NOTE 2 – ACCOUNTING STANDARDS RECENTLY ISSUED OR ADOPTED
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU requires an entity to recognize revenue as performance obligations are met, in order to reflect the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity is entitled to receive for those goods or services. The following steps are applied in the updated guidance: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. This ASU was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09 on January 1, 2018. The Company has analyzed its revenue sources of noninterest income to determine when the satisfaction of the performance obligation occurs and the appropriate recognition of revenue. For further information, see Note 10 – Non-interest Income of this report. The adoption of these ASUs did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10). Changes made to the current measurement model primarily affect the accounting for equity securities and readily determinable fair values, where changes in fair value will impact earnings instead of other comprehensive income. The accounting for other financial instruments, such as loans, investments in debt securities, and financial liabilities is largely unchanged. The ASU also changes the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments including a requirement that public business entities use exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for disclosure purposes. The amendments in this ASU were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has used the exit price notion in the fair value disclosure of financial instruments in Note 10 of this report. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The most significant change for lessees is the requirement under the new guidance to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases not considered short-term leases, which is generally defined as a lease term of less than 12 months. This change will result in lessees recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for most leases currently accounted for as operating leases under current lease accounting guidance. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 for public business entities and one year later for all other entities. Early application of the amendments in the ASU is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2016-02 on its financial statements and disclosures. Although an estimate of the impact of the new leasing standard has
11
BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
not yet been determined, upon adoption the Company expects to report increased assets and increased liabilities on its Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as a result of recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to certain banking offices and certain equipment under noncancelable operating lease agreements, however, based on current leases the adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). This ASU significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. In issuing the standard, the FASB is responding to criticism that today's guidance delays recognition of credit losses. The standard will replace today's "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model, will apply to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This includes, but is not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees. The CECL model does not apply to available-for-sale ("AFS") debt securities. For AFS debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to what they do today, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. As a result, entities will recognize improvements to estimated credit losses immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time, as they do today. The ASU also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity's assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan and lease losses. In addition, public business entities will need to disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for SEC filers, one year later for non SEC filing public business entities and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020 for nonpublic business entities and interim periods within the reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Entities will apply the standard's provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (i.e., modified retrospective approach). The Company is reviewing the requirements of ASU 2016-13 and expects to begin developing and implementing processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant with the amendments at the adoption date. Upon adoption, the Company expects changes in the processes and procedures used to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. The new guidance may result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses which will also reflect the new requirement to include the nonaccretable principal differences on purchased credit-impaired loans; however, the Company is still in the process of determining the magnitude of the change and its impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation, and goodwill impairment will simply be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other goodwill impairment guidance will remain largely unchanged. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments in this ASU are required for public business
12
BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021 for public business entities who are not SEC filers and one year later for all other entities. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's future consolidated financial statements.
In February 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). This ASU was issued to allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings from stranded tax effects resulting from the revaluation of the net deferred tax asset ("DTA") to the new corporate tax rate of 21% as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Act"). The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU with the provisional adjustments as reported in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, the Company did not incur any adjustments to the provisional recognition.
In March 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740). This ASU was issued to provide guidance on the income tax accounting implications of the Tax Act and allows for entities to report provisional amounts for specific income tax effects of the Act for which the accounting under Topic 740 was not yet complete, but a reasonable estimate could be determined. A measurement period of one-year is allowed to complete the accounting effects under Topic 740 and revise any previous estimates reported. Any provisional amounts or subsequent adjustments included in an entity's financial statements during the measurement period should be included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to tax expense in the reporting period the amounts are determined. The Company adopted this ASU with the provisional adjustments as reported in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, the Company did not incur any adjustments to the provisional recognition.
Note 3 – ACQUISITION
On April 28, 2017, to increase its market area, reduce net funding costs, and improve operating efficiency, the Company acquired FULB. The Company acquired all the assets and assumed all the liabilities of First ULB Corp. ("FULB") and its subsidiary, United Business Bank, FSB. The Company added eight locations including seven full service branches on one loan production office. The branch offices are located in Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento, San Francisco, Glendale, California and Albuquerque, New Mexico and Tukwila, Washington. The loan production office is located in Los Angeles, California. The Company paid a total of $41.9 million comprised of cash of $19.0 million and 1,371,579 shares of its common stock at a price of $16.66 per share in exchange for all of the common shares outstanding of FULB. Each share of FULB common stock was converted into .9733 share of the Company's common stock. As of the merger date, the fair value of FULB's consolidated assets totaled approximately $473.1 million and deposits totaled approximately $428.0 million. The fair value of estimates are subject to change during the measurement period, after the acquisition date as additional information relative to the acquisition date fair values becomes available. The merger transaction is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. The net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed totaled approximately $32.8 million at the date of merger. The Company also assumed the Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures issued by FULB (the "Subordinated Debentures") which are held by the First ULB Statutory Trust 1 (the "Trust") and the lease obligation related to each facility.
On November 3, 2017, to enhance its market share in the state of Washington, the Company acquired Plaza Bank ("Plaza Bank") adding one branch office located in Seattle, Washington. The Company

Goodwill represents the excess of the estimated fair value of the liabilities assets assumed over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired. The consideration paid represented a premium to the book value of pre-Merger institution's net assets at the acquisition date. Goodwill is not tax deductible.

Loans
The Company engaged a third party to determine the fair value of loans. The fair values for acquired loans were calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the present value of the expected cash flows utilizing market-derived discount rates and certain assumptions related to expected cash flows including prepayment estimates adjusted based on loan type and seasoning, and probability of default and loss severity. For purchased non-credit impaired ("PNCI") loans, the total gross contractual amounts receivable was $379.1 million as of the acquisition date. For purchase credit impaired ("PCI") loans, the total contractual amounts receivable was $8.6 million as of the date of acquisition. The fair value of the PCI loans is estimated to total $7.3 million as of the date of acquisition.
The PNCI loans with similar characteristics were grouped together and were treated in the aggregate when applying the discount rate on the expected cash flows. Aggregation factors considered include the type of loan and related collateral, risk classification, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing. The discount rates used for the similar groups of loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans, where available, and include adjustments for credit and liquidity factors. In addition, the guarantee of certain retained U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") guaranteed loans is reflected in the fair value.
At the acquisition date, the contractual amount and timing of undiscounted principal and interest payments and the estimated the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal and interest payments was used to estimate the fair value of PCI loans. The difference between these two amounts
15
BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
represented the nonaccretable difference. On the acquisition date, the amount by which the undiscounted expected cash flows exceed the estimated fair value of the acquired loans is the "accretable yield". The accretable yield is then measured at each financial reporting date and represented the difference between the remaining undiscounted expected cash flows and the current carrying value of the loans. For PCI loans the accretable yield is accreted into interest income over the life of the estimated remaining cash flows. At each financial reporting date, the carrying value of each PCI loan is compared to an updated estimate of expected principal payment or recovery on each loan. To the extent that the loan carrying amount exceeds the updated expected principal payment or recovery, a provision of loan loss would be recorded as a charge to income and an allowance for loan loss established.
The following table reflects contractual cash flows, nonaccretable difference, accretable yield, fair value, purchase discount, and principal balance for the various loan categories as of the acquisition date. For PCI loans, the purchase discount does not necessarily represent cash flows to be collected as a portion of it is a nonaccretable difference:

Real Estate Investment
The acquisition of FULB includes the acquisition of a real estate investment. The real estate was sold after the merger resulting in a fair value adjustment equal to the sale price net of closing expenses.
Servicing Assets
The acquisition of FULB included the acquisition of loans serviced for others including the SBA. The fair value of the servicing assets were calculated based on the net present value of the servicing income stream using a market-derived discount rate and estimated expected cash flows based on the estimated life of the underlying loans less the estimated cost of servicing plus a normal profit.
Core Deposit Intangible
The core deposit intangible asset, with an estimated acquisition date fair value of $4.8 million, represents the value ascribed to the long-term deposit relationships acquired and is being amortized over an estimated average useful life of seven years. Retention rates used to arrive at fair values are based on historical attrition analysis of other comparable financial institution's and management's assumptions. Generally, a run-off of 5% from beginning balances is assumed for all account types in the first and second year and includes a deposit growth rate of 1%. The core deposit intangible is estimated not to have a significant residual value.

BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Deposits
The fair values used for the retail demand deposit accounts and negotiable order of withdrawal or NOW deposits assumed were equal to the amounts payable on demand at the acquisition date. There was no fair value adjustment for FULB's time deposits as the fair values were equal to the carrying value as of the acquisition date based on the discounted cash flow that applied interest rates offered by market participants as of the acquisition date on time deposits with similar maturity dates. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates offered by market participants as of the acquisition date on time deposits with similar maturity terms as the discount rates.
Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures
The Subordinated Debentures total of $6.4 million had a fair value of $5.4 million. The fair value adjustment of $1,045,000 for the Subordinated Debentures is equal to the discounted cash flow that applied interest rates offered by market participants as of the acquisition date.
Pro Forma Results of Operations

At March 31, 2018, there were five securities in an unrealized loss position for greater than twelve consecutive months. At the same time, there were 60 securities in an unrealized loss position for twelve or less than twelve consecutive months. At December 31, 2017, there was one security in an unrealized loss position for greater than 12 consecutive months, and there were 48 securities in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 consecutive months. Management periodically evaluates each security in an unrealized loss position to determine if the impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary. The unrealized losses are due solely to interest rate changes and the Company does not intend to sell nor expects it will be required to sell investment securities identified with impairments prior to the earliest of forecasted recovery or the maturity of the underlying investment security. Management has determined that no investment security was other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Risk rating system
Each loan is assigned a risk grade based on its characteristics. Loans with low to average credit risk are assigned a lower risk grade than those with higher credit risk as determined by the individual loan characteristics.
24
BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company's Pass loans includes loans with acceptable business or individual credit risk where the borrower's operations, cash flow or financial condition provides evidence of low to average levels of risk.
A Special mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in a deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company's credit position at some future date. Special Mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. A Special Mention rating should be a temporary rating, pending the occurrence of an event that would cause the risk rating to either improve or to be downgraded.
A Substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The potential loss does not have to be recognizable in an individual credit for that credit to be risk rated substandard.
Any asset classified Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and value, highly questionable and improbable. Doubtful assets have a high probability of loss, yet certain important and reasonably specific pending factors may work toward the strengthening of the asset.
Losses are recognized as charges to the allowance when the loan or portion of the loan is considered uncollectible or at the time of foreclosure. Recoveries on loans receivable previously charged off are credited to the allowance for loan losses.

Subordinated Debentures mature on September 15, 2034, bear a current interest rate of 4.83% (based on 3-months Libor plus 2.5%), with quarterly repricing. The Subordinated Debentures are redeemable by the Company subject to prior approval from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors ("Federal Reserve"), on any March 15, June 15, September 15, or December 15. The redemption price is par plus accrued and unpaid interest, except in the case of redemption under special event which is defined in the debenture. The Trust Preferred Securities are subject to mandatory redemption to the extent of any early redemption of the Subordinated Debentures and upon maturity of the Subordinated Debentures on September 15, 2034. As of March 31, 2018 the Trust Preferred Securities had an outstanding balance, net of mark-to-market, totaling $5.4 million.

The Company also has the right to defer the payment of interest on each of the Subordinated Debentures for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters, provided that the deferral period does not extend beyond the stated maturity date. During such deferral period, distributions on the corresponding Trust Preferred Securities will also be deferred and the Company may not pay cash dividends to the holders of shares of the Company's conmmon stock. The Company has guaranteed, on a subordinated basis, distributions and other payments due on the Trust Preferred Securities.
NOTE 8 – EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS
2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
The shareholders approved the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan ("2017 Plan") in November 2017. The 2017 Plan provides for the awarding by the Company's Board of Directors of equity incentive awards to employees and non-employee directors. An equity incentive award may be an option, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, stock award, other stock-based award or performance award granted under the 2017 Plan. Factors considered by the Board in awarding equity incentives to officers and employees include the performance of the Company, the employee's or officer's job performance, the importance of his or her position, and his or her contribution to the organization's goals for the award period. Generally, awards are restricted and have a vesting period of no longer than ten years. Subject to adjustment as provided in the 2017 Plan, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted under the 2017 Plan is 450,000. The 2017 Plan provides for an annual restricted stock grant limits to officers, employees and directors. The annual stock grant limit per person for officers and employees is the lessor of 50,000 shares or a value of $2.0 million, and per person for directors the maximum is 25,000 shares. All unvested restricted shares outstanding vest in the event of a change in control of the Company. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, 15,232 shares of restricted stock were awarded and no stock options were granted. Awarded shares of restricted stock vest over (i) a one-year period following the date of grant, in the case of the non-employee directors, and (ii) a three-year period following the date of grant, with the initial vesting occurring on the one-year anniversary of the date of grant, in the case of the executive officers.
2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
In 2014, the shareholders approved the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan"). A total of 148,962 equity incentive awards have been granted under the 2014 Plan. The awards are shares of restricted stock and have a vesting period of one to five years. No future equity awards will be made from the 2014 Plan.

BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 9 – EARNINGS PER SHARE CALCULATION
Earnings per common share ("EPS") are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The number of potential common shares included in the quarterly diluted EPS is computed using the average market price during the three months

included in the reporting period under the treasury stock method. The number of potential common shares included in year-to-date diluted EPS is a year-to-date weighted average of potential shares included in each quarterly diluted EPS computation. Dilutive income per share includes the effect of stick options and other potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method. There two forms of outstanding common stock and unvested restricted stock rewards. Holders of unvested restricted stock awards receive non-forfeitable dividends at the same rate as common shareholders and they both share equally in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, the inference in EPS is not significant for these participating securities. stock awards All common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive when a net loss occurs.
Earnings per share have been computed based on the following:

NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The following table presents information about the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and the fair value techniques used to determine such fair value. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels (Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3).
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (as defined) for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs are inputs other than quoted prices include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In such cases, the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the measurement is used to determine the hierarchy for the entire asset or liability. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer, which generally coincides with our quarterly valuation process. There were no transfers between levels during 2018 or 2017.

The Bank does not record loans at fair value. However, from time to time, if a loan is considered impaired, a specific allocation within the allowance for loan losses may be required. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the value of the expected repayments or collateral equals or exceeds the recorded investments in such loans.
Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral or when the impaired loan has been written down to fair value require classification in the fair value hierarchy. If the fair value of the collateral is based on a non-observable market price or a current appraised value, the Bank records the impaired loans as nonrecurring Level 3. When an appraised value is not available, or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Bank also records the impaired loans as nonrecurring Level 3.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments.
There have been no significant changes in valuation techniques during the periods reported. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value disclosure for financial instruments:
31
BAYCOM CORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits in banks, and Fed funds sold, and are valued at their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Interest bearing deposits in financial institutions - Interest bearing deposits in financial institutions are valued based on quoted interest rates for comparable instruments with similar remaining maturities.
Investment Securities - The fair value of available of sale securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities and indications of value provides by brokers.
Other equity securities - The carrying value of the FHLB and FRB stock approximates the fair value because the stock is redeemable at par.
Loans - Loans with variable interest rates are valued at the current carrying value, because these loans are regularly adjusted to market rates. The fair value of fixed rate with remaining maturities in excess of one year is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. The allowance for loan losses is considered to be a reasonable estimate of the loan discount related to credit risk.
Accrued interest receivable and payable - The accrued interest receivable and payable balance approximates its fair value.
Deposits - The fair value of non-interest bearing deposits, interest bearing transaction accounts and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Other borrowings - The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates offered for similar borrowings. The discount rate is equal to the market rate of currently offered similar products. This is an adjustable rate borrowing and adjusts to market on a quarterly basis.
Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures - The fair value of Subordinated Debentures is determined based on rates and/or discounted cash flow analysis using interest rates offered in inactive markets for instruments of a similar maturity and structure resulting in a Level 3 classification. The Subordinated Debentures are carried at their current carrying value, because the Subordinated Debentures regularly adjust to market rates
Undisbursed loan commitments and standby letters of credit - The fair value of the off-balance sheet items is based on discounted cash flows of expected fundings.
Loans held for sale - Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what the secondary markets are currently offering for loans with similar characteristics. As such, the Bank classifies those loans subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 2.
Non-financial assets and liabilities defined by the FASB ASC 820, Fair Value measurements, such as Bank premises and equipment, deferred taxes, and other liabilities are excluded from the table. In addition, we have not disclosed the fair value of financial instruments specifically.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
BayCom is a bank holding company headquartered in Walnut Creek, California. BayCom's wholly owned banking subsidiary, United Business Bank, provides a broad range of financial services primarily to businesses and business owners as well as individuals through our network of 17 full service branches located in Northern and Central California, Seattle, Washington and Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Since 2010, we have completed a series of five acquisitions with aggregate total assets of approximately
$892.2 million and total deposits of approximately $768.6 million. We have sought to integrate the banks we acquire into our existing operational platform and enhance shareholder value through the creation of efficiencies within the combined operations. In April 2017, we completed our largest acquisition to date when we acquired United Business Bank, FSB headquartered in Oakland, California, which increased our deposits by approximately $428.0 million, consisting primarily of lower cost stable core deposits from a strong network of relationships with labor unions. At the time of acquisition, United Business Bank, FSB had total assets of approximately $473.1 million, which significantly increased our total asset size and provided us with nine full-service banking offices in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Long Beach, Oakland, Sacramento, San Francisco, San Jose and Glendale, California; and Seattle, Washington. We integrated the United Business Bank, FSB's branches and recognized the opportunity to consolidate two branches, one of which was completed in January 2017 and the other was completed in April 2018. In addition, in November 2017 we acquired Plaza Bank, with one branch located in Seattle, Washington. At the time of the acquisition, Plaza Bank had total assets of approximately $75.8 million and deposits of $54.2 million.
Our principal objective is to continue to increase shareholder value and generate consistent earnings growth by expanding our commercial banking franchise through both strategic acquisitions and organic growth. We believe our strategy of selectively acquiring and integrating community banks has provided us with economies of scale and improved our overall franchise efficiency. We expect to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions and believe our targeted market areas present us with many and varied acquisition opportunities. We are also focused on continuing to grow organically and believe the markets in which we operate currently provide meaningful opportunities to expand our commercial client base and increase our current market share. We believe our geographic footprint, which includes the San Francisco Bay area and the metropolitan markets of Los Angeles and Seattle and other community markets including Albuquerque, New Mexico, provides us with access to low cost, stable core deposits in community markets that we can use to fund commercial loan growth. We strive to provide an enhanced banking experience for our clients by providing them with a comprehensive suite of sophisticated banking products and services tailored to meet their needs, while delivering the high-quality, relationship-based client service of a community bank. We continue to focus on growing our commercial loan portfolios through acquisitions as well as organic growth.
The profitability of our operations depends primarily on our net interest income after provision for loan losses, which is the difference between interest earned on interest earning assets and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities less provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses is dependent on changes in our loan portfolio and management's assessment of the collectability of our loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions. Our net income is also affected by non-interest income and non-interest expenses. Non-interest income and non-interest expenses are impacted by the growth of our banking operations and growth in the number of loan and deposit accounts both organically and through strategic acquisitions.
35
Set forth below is a discussion of the primary factors we use to evaluate and manage our results of operations:
Net interest income. Net interest income represents interest income less interest expense. We generate interest income from interest and fees received on interest-earning assets, including loans and investment securities and dividends on Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco ("FHLB") and Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("FRB") stock we own. We incur interest expense from interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, including interest-bearing deposits and borrowings. To evaluate net interest income, we measure and monitor: (i) yields on our loans and other interest-earning assets; (ii) the costs of our deposits and other funding sources; (iii) our net interest margin; and (iv) the regulatory risk weighting associated with the assets. Net interest margin is calculated as the annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and shareholders' equity, also fund interest-earning assets, net interest margin includes the benefit of these noninterest-bearing sources.
Changes in market interest rates, the slope of the yield curve, and interest we earn on interest-earning assets or pay on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the volume and types of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders' equity, usually have the largest impact on changes in our net interest spread, net interest margin and net interest income during a reporting period.
Noninterest income. Noninterest income consists of, among other things: (i) service charges on loans and deposits; (ii) gain on sale of loans; and (iii) other noninterest income. Gain on sale of loans includes income (or losses) from the sale of the guaranteed portion of U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans, capitalized loan servicing rights and other related income.
Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense includes, among other things: (i) salaries and related benefits; (ii) occupancy and equipment expense; (iii) data processing; (iv) Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and state assessments; (v) outside and professional services; (vi) amortization of intangibles; and (vii) other general and administrative expenses. Salaries and related benefits include compensation, employee benefits and employment tax expenses for our personnel. Occupancy expense includes depreciation expense on our owned properties, lease expense on our leased properties and other occupancy-related expenses. Data processing expense includes data fees paid to our third-party data processing system provider and other data service providers. FDIC and state assessments expense represents the assessments that we pay to the FDIC for deposit insurance and other regulatory costs to various states. Outside and professional fees include legal, accounting, consulting and other outsourcing arrangements. Amortization of intangibles represents the amortization of our core deposit intangible from various acquisitions. Other general and administrative expenses include expenses associated with travel, meals, training, supplies and postage. Noninterest expenses generally increase as we grow our business. Noninterest expenses have increased significantly over the past few years as we have grown through acquisitions and organically, and as we have built out our operational infrastructure.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Certain of the Company's accounting policies are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex, or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances
36
which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.
The following represent our critical accounting policies:
Allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management. Periodically, we charge current earnings with provisions for estimated probable losses of loans receivable. The provision or adjustment takes into consideration the adequacy of the total allowance for loan losses giving due consideration to specifically identified problem loans, the financial condition of the borrowers, fair value of the underlying collateral, recourse provisions, prevailing economic conditions, and other factors. Additional consideration is given to our historical loan loss experience relative to our loan portfolio concentrations related to industry, collateral and geography. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant change as additional or new information becomes available. In addition, regulatory examiners may require additional allowances based on their judgments of the information regarding problem loans and credit risk available to them at the time of their examinations.
Generally, the allowance for loan loss consists of various components including a component for specifically identified weaknesses as a result of individual loans being impaired, a component for general non-specific weakness related to historical experience, economic conditions and other factors that indicate probable loss in the loan portfolio, and an unallocated component that relates to the inherent imprecision in the use of estimates. Loans determined to be impaired are individually evaluated by management for specific risk of loss.
In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties, we grant a concession to the borrower that we would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring, or TDR. We measure any loss on the TDR in accordance with the guidance concerning impaired loans set forth above. Additionally, TDRs are generally placed on non-accrual status at the time of restructuring and included in impaired loans. These loans are returned to accrual status after the borrower demonstrates performance with the modified terms for a sustained period of time (generally six months) and has the capacity to continue to perform in accordance with the modified terms of the restructured debt.
Estimated expected cash flows related to purchased credit impaired loans. Loans purchased with evidence of credit deterioration since origination for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. In situations where such PCI loans have similar risk characteristics, loans may be aggregated into pools to estimate cash flows. A pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single interest rate, cumulative loss rate and cash flow expectation.
The cash flows expected over the life of the PCI loan or pool are estimated using an internal cash flow model that projects cash flows and calculates the carrying values of the pools, book yields, effective interest income and impairment, if any, based on pool level events. Assumptions as to default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds are utilized to calculate the expected cash flows.
Expected cash flows at the acquisition date in excess of the fair value of loans are considered to be accretable yield, which is recognized as interest income over the life of the loan or pool using a level yield method if the timing and amounts of the future cash flows of the pool are reasonably estimable. Subsequent to the acquisition date, any increases in cash flow over those expected at purchase date in excess of fair value are recorded as interest income prospectively. Any subsequent decreases in cash flow
37
over those expected at purchase date are recognized by recording an allowance for loan losses. Any disposals of loans, including sales of loans, payments in full or foreclosures result in the removal of the loan from the loan pool at the carrying amount.
Business combinations. We apply the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Under the acquisition method, the acquiring entity in a business combination recognizes all of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Management utilizes prevailing valuation techniques appropriate for the asset or liability being measured in determining these fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over amounts allocated to assets acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Where amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is greater than the purchase price, a bargain purchase gain is recognized. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred unless they are directly attributable to the issuance of the Company's common stock in a business combination.
Loan sales and servicing of financial assets. Periodically, we sell loans and retains the servicing rights. The gain or loss on sale of loans depends in part on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based on their relative fair value at the date of transfer. All servicing assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. In addition, we amortize servicing rights in proportion to and over the period of the estimated net servicing income or loss and assesses the rights for impairment. The servicing rights are initially measured at fair value and amortized in proportion to and over the period of the estimated net servicing income assuming prepayments.
Income taxes. Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, which recognizes a liability or asset representing the tax effects, based on current tax law, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized in the financial statements. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax asset to the level at which it is "more likely than not" that the tax asset or benefits will be realized. Realization of tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry forwards depends on having sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carry forward periods.
We recognize that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if, based on its merits, the position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit by the taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recorded as part of income tax expense.
Goodwill. Our goodwill resulted from our acquisitions of United Business Bank, FSB and Plaza Bank. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually and more often if an event occurs or circumstances change that might indicate the recorded value of the goodwill is more than its implied value. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the general business climate; significant decline in the Company's stock price and market capitalization; unanticipated competition; and an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. Any adverse changes in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of goodwill and could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
The testing for impairment may begin with an assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that the fair value of goodwill is less than carrying value. The qualitative assessment includes adverse events or circumstances identified that could negatively affect the reporting unit's fair value as well as positive and mitigating events. When required, the goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process. The first test for goodwill impairment is done
38
by comparing the reporting unit's aggregate fair value to its carrying value. Absent other indicators of impairment, if the aggregate fair value exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and no additional analysis is necessary. If the carrying value of the reporting unit were to exceed the aggregate fair value, a second test would be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. To measure any impairment loss the implied fair value would be determined in the same manner as if the reporting unit were being acquired in a business combination. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the recorded goodwill an impairment charge would be recorded for the difference. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we completed step one of the two-step process of the goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the test, we concluded that the reporting unit's fair value was greater than its carrying value and there was no impairment of goodwill.
Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017
Total assets. Total assets decreased $4.0 million, or 0.3%, to $1.24 billion at March 31, 2018 from $1.25 billion at December 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.9 million, or 0.4%, decrease in total loans receivable, net.
Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $5.6 million, or 2.2%, to $255.5 million at March 31, 2018 from $249.9 million at December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily due to cash received from an increase in client deposits. We intend to invest our excess cash in marketable securities until such funds are needed to support loan growth or other operating or strategic initiatives.
Securities available-for-sale. Investment securities available-for-sale decreased $3.7 million, or 9.2%, to $36.8 million at March 31, 2018 from $40.5 million at December 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to maturities of investment securities of $2.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, in addition to routine amortization and accretion of investment premiums and discounts. At March 31, 2018, all of our investment securities were classified as available-for-sale.
Loans receivable, net. We originate a wide variety of loans with a focus on commercial real estate ("CRE") loans and commercial and industrial loans. Loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses, decreased $3.9 million, or 0.4%, to $886.2 million at March 31, 2018 from $890.1 million at December 31, 2017. The decrease in loans receivable was primarily due to loans sold and prepayments on loans in excess of new loan originations. Loan originations for quarter ended March 31, 2018 totaled $29.2 million compared to $31.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2017. We also sold $8.8 million of the guaranteed portion of U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Includes loans located in the states of New Mexico, Washington and other states. At March 31, 2018, loans in New Mexico and Washington totaled $68.0 million and $38.0 million, respectively.

Nonperforming assets and nonaccrual loans. Nonperforming assets consists of nonaccrual loans. Nonperforming assets increased $50,000, or 27.9%, to $229,000 at March 31, 2018 from $179,000 at December 31, 2017. At March 31, 2018, accruing loans past due 30 to 89 days totaled $1.1 million, compared to $1.9 million at December 31, 2017.
40
In general, loans are placed on non-accrual status after being contractually delinquent for more than 90 days, or earlier if management believes full collection of future principal and interest on a timely basis is unlikely. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all interest accrued but not received is charged against interest income. When the ability to fully collect non-accrual loan principal is in doubt, cash payments received are applied against the principal balance of the loan until such time as full collection of the remaining recorded balance is expected. Generally, loans with temporarily impaired values and loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties are placed on non-accrual status even though the borrowers continue to repay the loans as scheduled. Such loans are categorized as performing non-accrual loans and are reflected in non-performing assets. Interest received on such loans is recognized as interest income when received. A non-accrual loan is restored to an accrual basis when principal and interest payments are paid current and full payment of principal and interest is probable. Loans that are well secured and in the process of collection remain on accrual status.
Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan and lease losses. These acquired loans are segregated into three types: pass rated loans with no discount attributable to credit quality, non-impaired loans with a discount attributable at least in part to credit quality and impaired loans with evidence of significant credit deterioration.
·
|
Pass rated loans (typically performing loans) are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310-20 "Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs" as these loans do not have evidence of credit deterioration since origination.
|
·
|
Non-impaired loans (typically performing substandard loans) are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310-30 if they display at least some level of credit deterioration since origination.
|
·
|
Impaired loans (typically substandard loans on non-accrual status) are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310-30 as they display significant credit deterioration since origination.
|
For pass rated loans (non-purchased credit-impaired loans), the difference between the estimated fair value of the loans and the principal outstanding is accreted over the remaining life of the loans.
In accordance with ASC Topic 310-30, for both purchased non-impaired loans (performing substandard loans) and purchased credit-impaired loans, the loans are pooled by loan type and the difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected is referred to as the non-accretable difference. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan pools when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows.
Troubled debt restructured loans. Troubled debt restructurings, also referred to as "TDRs" herein, which are accounted for under ASC Topic 310-40, are loans which have renegotiated loan terms to assist borrowers who are unable to meet the original terms of their loans. Such modifications to loan terms may include a below market interest rate, a reduction in principal, or a longer term to maturity. At December 31, 2017, we had four TDR loans totaling $1.0 million, three of which totaling $967,000 were performing according to their restructured terms. The performing TDR loans are not considered nonperforming assets as they continue to accrue interest despite being considered impaired due to the restructured status. TDR loans as of March 31, 2018 totaled $791,000, of which $11,000was non-performing. PCI loans included
41
in TDR loans totaled $780,000 and $794,000 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. There was no related allowance for loan losses on the TDR loans at either March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

Performing TDRs are not included in nonperforming loans above, nor are they included in the numerators used to calculate this ratio.
|
Loans under ASC Topic 310-30 are considered performing and are not included in nonperforming assets in the table above. At December 31, 2017, and 2016, we had no credit impaired loans under ASC Topic 310-30 that were 90 days past due and still accruing.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, gross interest income which would have been recorded had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to zero.
Potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are those loans that are currently accruing interest and are not considered impaired, but which we are monitoring because the financial information of the borrower causes us concerns as to their ability to comply with their loan repayment terms. No loans which
42
are past due 90 days or more are still accruing interest at March 31, 2018. Potential problem loans, not included in the non-performing loans, totaled $10.2 million at March 31, 2018.
Allowance for loan losses. We establish an allowance for loan losses by charging amounts to the loan provision at a level required to reflect estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers, among other factors, historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions and current risk factors specifically related to each loan type. See "— Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Allowance for loan loss" for a description of the manner in which the provision for loan losses is established.
In accordance with acquisition accounting, loans acquired from the United Business Bank, FSB, and Plaza Bank mergers were recorded at their estimated fair value, which resulted in a net discount to the loans contractual amounts, of which a portion reflects a discount for possible credit losses. Credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value and as a result no allowance for loan losses is recorded for acquired loans at the acquisition date. Although the discount recorded on the acquired loans is not reflected in the allowance for loan losses, or related allowance coverage ratios, we believe it should be considered when comparing the current ratios to similar ratios in periods prior to the acquisitions of United Business Bank, FSB, and Plaza Bank. The remaining net discount on these acquired loans was $7.7 million and $8.7 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Based on the Company's established comprehensive methodology discussed above, the allowance for loan losses was $4.6 million at March 31, 2018 .52% of loans receivable, net and 2,008.73 % of nonperforming loans). This compares to an allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2017 of $4.2 million 0.47% of loans receivable, net and 2,354.75% of nonperforming loans).

As of March 31, 2018, we identified $1.0 million in impaired loans, inclusive of $229,000 of nonperforming loans and $780,000 of performing TDR loans. Of these impaired loans, only $11,000 had allowances for loan losses as their estimated collateral value or discounted expected cash flow is equal to or exceeds their carrying costs. As of December 31, 2017, we identified $1.1 million in impaired loans, inclusive of $179,000 of nonperforming loans and $954,000 of performing TDR loans. Of these impaired loans, only $13,000 had allowances for loan losses as their estimated collateral value or discounted expected cash flow is equal to or exceeds their carrying costs.
Management considers the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2018 to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio based on the assessment of the above-mentioned factors affecting the loan portfolio. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in its determination of the
44
adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future losses will not exceed the amount of the established allowance for loan losses or that any increased allowance for loan losses that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators, as part of the routine examination process, which may result in additions to our provision for loan losses based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.
Deposits. Deposits are our primary source of funding and consist of core deposits from the communities served by our branch and office locations. We offer a variety of deposit accounts with a competitive range of interest rates and terms to both consumers and businesses. Deposits include interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing demand accounts, savings, money market, certificates of deposit and individual retirement accounts. These accounts earn interest at rates established by management based on competitive market factors, management's desire to increase certain product types or maturities, and in keeping with our asset/liability, liquidity and profitability objectives. Competitive products, competitive pricing and high touch client service are important to attracting and retaining these deposits. Total deposits decreased $5.5 million, or 0.5%, to $1.10 billion at March 31, 2018 from $1.10 billion at December 31, 2017, primarily due to normal fluctuations within our deposit portfolio. Demand deposits as a percentage of total deposits increased to 80.0% at March 31, 2018 from 79.2% at December 31, 2017.
The following table sets forth the dollar amount of deposits in the various types of deposit programs offer at the dates indicated.

Borrowings. Borrowed funds were $11.4 million at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The totals in both periods included $6.0 million in long-term secured borrowings and $5.4 million (net of mark-to-market adjustments), of junior subordinated debentures issued in connection with the sale of trust preferred securities from our acquisition of United Business Bank, FSB in 2017. At March 31, 2018, we had no FHLB advances outstanding and the ability to borrow up to $310.3 million.
In addition to FHLB advances, we may also utilize Fed Funds purchased from correspondent banks as a source of short-term funding. At March 31, 2018, we had a total of $55.0 million federal funds line available from four third-party financial institutions, in addition to a $9.0 million line of credit which will expire in April 2018 that we do not intend to renew.
We are required to provide collateral for certain local agency deposits. As of March 31, 2018, the FHLB had issued a letter of credit on behalf of the Bank totaling $7.45 million as collateral for local agency deposits.
45
Shareholders' equity. Shareholders' equity increased $3.9 million, or 3.3%, to $122.6 million at March 31, 2018 from $118.6 million at December 31, 2017. This increase was primarily due to net income of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
Earnings summary. We reported net income of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $2.7 million, or 187.3%. The increase in net income primarily was the result of increases in net interest income before provision for loan losses and non-interest income partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense reflecting both our two whole-bank acquisitions in 2017 and organic growth.
Diluted earnings per share were $0.54 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.28 from diluted earnings per share of $0.26 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Our efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income before provision for loan losses plus noninterest income, improved to 57.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to 64.24% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The change in the efficiency ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017 is attributable primarily to the increase in net interest income and noninterest income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense.
Interest income. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $13.6 million, compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $6.2 million, or 83.1%. The increase in interest income primarily was due to an increase in average interest earning assets, principally loans, which was driven by the two whole-bank acquisitions completed during 2017. Interest income on loans increased $4.6 million as a result of a $372.2 million increase in the average loan balance, further supplemented by a two basis point increase in the average loan yield. The average yield earned on loans for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 4.91%, compared to 4.89% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Interest income on loans for the three months ended March 31, 2018 included $1.0 million in accretion of purchase accounting fair value adjustments on acquired loans, compared to $595,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The remaining net discount on these purchased loans was $7.7 million and $4.7 million at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Interest income on interest-bearing deposits increased $563,000 as a result of a $125.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning deposits and a 67 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning deposits to 1.56% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 0.89% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Interest income on investment securities increased $312 thousand as a result of a $25.7 million increase in the average balance of investment securities and a 61 basis point increase in the yield on investment securities to 2.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 1.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $220,000, or 23.9%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $918,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 20 basis points to 0.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 0.62% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Total average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $516.9 million, or 86.9%, to $1.1 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $516.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
46
Interest expense on deposits increased $60,000, or 6.6%, to $979,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $918,000 the same period in 2017, primarily due to the deposits acquired in the United Business Bank, FSB and Plaza Bank acquisitions. The effects of the increase in the average deposit balance was largely offset by lower rates paid on interest bearing deposits, reflecting the still relatively low interest rate environment. The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits decreased to 0.36% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 0.63% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Interest expense on borrowings was $159,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to none for the same period in 2017, as a result of the Subordinated Debentures assumed and another borrowing obtained in connection with our United Business Bank, FSB acquisition. The Company replaced a term loan of United Business Bank, FSB that matured upon its acquisition with a similar $6.0 million term loan which was repaid subsequent to March 31, 2018.
Net interest income. Net interest income increased $5.9 million, or 91.5%, to $12.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased 25 basis points to 4.27% from 4.02% for the same period in 2017. Net interest margin is enhanced by the amortization of acquisition accounting discounts on loans acquired in the acquisitions. Accretion of acquisition accounting discounts on loans and the recognition of revenue from purchase credit impaired loans in excess of discounts increased our net interest margin by 41 basis points and 36 basis points during three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The average yield on interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 4.66%, an eight basis point increase from the three months ended March 31, 2017, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 0.42%, down 20 basis points from the 0.62% cost of funds during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Rate/Volume Analysis. Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in weighted average interest rates. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income during the periods shown. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate) and (ii) effects on interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). Changes applicable to both volume and rate have been allocated to volume. Yields have been calculated on a pre-tax basis. The following table compares the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Provision for loan losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $254,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to a provision for loan losses of $143,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $111,000 or 77.3%. We recorded no provision for loan losses for acquired loans related to the acquired non-purchased credit-impaired loans as accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310-20 for both the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. In addition, no additional provisions were recorded on the purchase credit-impaired loans accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310-30 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. The provision for loan losses increased primarily as a result of an increase in specific reserves on certain loans. We had net recoveries on previously charged-off loans of $131,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to net recoveries of $7,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The ratio of net recoveries to average total loans outstanding was (0.01)% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 0.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The allowance for loan losses to loans receivable was 0.52% at
49
March 31, 2018 compared to 0.73% at March 31, 2017. See Comparison of Financial Condition - Allowance for loan losses for additional details.
Noninterest income. Noninterest income increased $990,000, or 134.6%, to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $736,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase primarily relates to higher gain on sale of loans, service charges and other fees and loan fee income. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold $6.4 million of SBA loans, which generated a net gain on sale of $651,000 compared to a gain of $400,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2017. Additionally, our acquisitions and organic growth significantly increased our deposit accounts, which resulted in a $304,000, or 213.0%, increase in service charges and other fees. Loan fee income increased $188,000, or 329.6%, to $245,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $57,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. All other components of noninterest income increased $248,000, net between these two periods.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense increased $3.5 million, or 75.2%, to $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Each line category of noninterest expense was higher than the previous year, as we nearly doubled in size due to the acquisitions and organic growth. Salaries and related benefits increased $1.8 million, or 59.4%, to $4.9 million, as the number of full-time equivalent employees increased to 158 at March 31, 2018, compared to 105 a year earlier. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $406,000, or 71.3%, to $975,000, primarily due to the increase in the number of branch office resulting from our acquisitions. As of March 31, 2018, we operated 17 full service branches, compared to 10 a year earlier. Data processing expenses increased $348,000, or 96.8%, to $704,000, related to the acquisitions and the systems conversion we undertook during 2017, as well as a result of higher transaction volume. Other noninterest expense increased $899,000, or 143.7%, to $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $626,000 during the same period in 2017, primarily due to increases in office expenses of $216,000, professional fees of $211,000, amortization of our core deposit intangible asset of $206,000, and in marketing expenses of $156,000.

Income taxes. Income tax expense increased $672,000, or 65.7%, to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, reflecting the increase in pre-tax income. The Company's effective tax rate was 29.39% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to 41.91% for the same period in 2017. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 is primarily the result of recent changes in the U. S. tax laws, wherein the statutory corporate income tax rate was lowered from 35.0% to 21.0%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Planning for our normal business liquidity needs, both expected and unexpected, is done on a daily and short-term basis through the cash management function. On a longer-term basis it is accomplished through the budget and strategic planning functions, with support from internal asset/liability management software model projections.
Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide funding for loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. We rely on a number of different sources in order to meet our potential liquidity demands. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, escrow and custodial deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and proceeds from sale of loans. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Our most liquid assets are cash, short-term investments, including interest-bearing demand deposits and securities available-for-sale. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.
In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. As of March 31, 2018, the Bank had an available borrowing capacity of $310.3 million with the FHLB of San Francisco, and four Federal Funds lines with available commitments totaling $55.0 million with four correspondent banks. There are no amounts outstanding under these facilities at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Additionally, the Company classifies its securities portfolio as available for sale, providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that our security portfolio is of high quality and the securities would therefore be marketable.
We use our sources of funds primarily to meet our ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. Loan commitments and letters of credit were $82.4 million and $98.7 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2018, totaled $167.0 million. It is management's policy to manage deposit
51
rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that most of our maturing certificates of deposit will remain with us.
Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.0 million and net cash used in operating activities was $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, net cash provided by investing activities, which consists primarily of net repayment of loans receivable and maturities of investment securities, was $6.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, net cash used in investing activities totaled $12.0 million due primarily to an increase in net loans receivable. Net cash used in financing activities totaling $5.5 million comprised primarily of a net decrease in deposits compared to net cash provided by financing activities totaling $19.2 million which was primarily due to a net increase in deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
As a separate legal entity from the Bank, BayCom Corp must provide for its own liquidity. Sources of capital and liquidity for BayCom Corp include distributions from the Bank and the issuance of debt or equity securities. Dividends and other capital distributions from the Bank are subject to regulatory notice. At March 31, 2018, BayCom Corp had liquid assets of $495,000 on an unconsolidated basis. Subsequent to March 31, 2018, the Company completed an initial public offering of its common stock resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $66.8 million. For further information, see "Note 11 – Subsequent Events" of this report.
Capital Requirements
BayCom Corp is a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve. Bank holding companies are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. The Bank, as a state-chartered, federally insured commercial bank, is subject to the capital requirements established by the FDIC.
The capital adequacy requirements are quantitative measures established by regulation that require BayCom Corp and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of capital. The Federal Reserve requires BayCom Corp to maintain capital adequacy that generally parallels the FDIC requirements. The FDIC requires the Bank to maintain minimum ratios of Total Capital, Tier 1 Capital, and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets as well as Tier 1 Leverage Capital to average assets. In addition to the minimum capital ratios, the Bank now has to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional Common Equity Tier 1 Capital above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. This new capital conservation buffer requirement began to be phased in starting in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented to an amount equal to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets in January 2019. As of March 31, 2018, the conservation buffer was 1.875%. At March 31, 2018, BayCom Corp and the Bank each exceeded all regulatory capital requirements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage clients' requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, lines of credit and standby letters of credit.
As of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, commitments to extend credit and letters of credit were the only financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The Company has not entered into any contracts for financial derivative instruments such as futures, swaps, options or similar instruments. Loan commitments and letters of credit were $82.4 million and $98.7 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. As a percentage of net loans, these off-balance sheet items represent 11% and 11%, respectively. The Company does not expect all commitments to be funded.
In the normal course of business, the Company accepts deposits from local agencies. The Company is required to provide collateral for certain local agency deposits in the states of California and Washington. As of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the FHLB issued a letter of credit on behalf of the Company totaling $7.5 million and $9.9 million, respectively, as collateral for local agency deposits.
We have not engaged in any other off-balance-sheet transactions in the normal course of our lending activities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
For information regarding the Company's market risk, see "Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk" in the Company's prospectus dated May 4, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on May 4, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, the market risk of the Company has not changed materially from those disclosed in the prospectus.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") was carried out as of March 31, 2018 under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and several other members of the Company's senior management. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
The Company's CEO and CFO concluded that based on their evaluation at March 31, 2018, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to FS Bancorp management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
There were no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2018, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company occasionally becomes involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company.

For information regarding the Company's risk factors, see "Risk Factors" in the Company's prospectus dated May 4, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on May 4, 2018.
