HANMI FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Basis of Presentation
     Hanmi Financial Corporation (“Hanmi Financial,” “we” or “us”) is a Delaware corporation and is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Our primary subsidiary is Hanmi Bank (the “Bank”). Our other subsidiaries are Chun-Ha Insurance Services, Inc. (“Chun-Ha”) and All World Insurance Services, Inc. (“All World”), which were acquired on January 2, 2007.
     The Bank is a commercial bank licensed by the California Department of Financial Institutions. The Bank’s deposit accounts are insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act up to applicable limits thereof. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System. Chun-Ha and All World are insurance brokerages founded in 1989 and offer a complete line of insurance products, including life, commercial, auto, health, and property and casualty.
     Our primary operations are related to traditional banking activities, including the acceptance of deposits and the lending and investing of money through operation of the Bank. The Bank is a community bank conducting general business banking with its primary market encompassing the multi-ethnic populations of Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, San Francisco and Santa Clara counties of the State of California. The Bank’s full-service offices are located in business areas where many of the businesses are run by immigrants and other minority groups. The Bank’s client base reflects the multi-ethnic composition of these communities. As of June 30, 2007, the Bank maintained a branch network of 23 locations, serving individuals and small- to medium-sized businesses in its primary market. The Bank also had eight loan production offices in California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Virginia and Washington. Chun-Ha and All World are headquartered in Garden Grove, California and have offices in Los Angeles.
     In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements of Hanmi Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period ended June 30, 2007, but are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be reported for the entire year. In the opinion of management, the aforementioned consolidated financial statements are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The interim information should be read in conjunction with our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
     Descriptions of our significant accounting policies are included in “Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
     Certain reclassifications were made to the prior period’s presentation to conform to the current period’s presentation.
NOTE 2 — SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
     2007 Equity Compensation Plan
     At the May 23, 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, shareholders approved the 2007 Equity Compensation Plan, which replaces the Year 2000 Stock Option Plan. The 2007 Equity Compensation Plan provides for grants of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and performance shares to non-employee directors, officers, employees and consultants of Hanmi Financial and its subsidiaries.

NOTE 3 — EARNINGS PER SHARE
     Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated on both a basic and a diluted basis. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. 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 or resulted from the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings, excluding common shares in treasury.
     Unvested restricted stock is excluded from the calculation of weighted-average common shares for basic EPS. For diluted EPS, weighted-average common shares include the impact of restricted stock under the treasury method.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, there were 1,243,221 and 1,071,554 options outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, there were 845,221 and 1,071,554 options outstanding, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
NOTE 4 — INCOME TAXES
     In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN No. 48”). This Statement clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in a company’s financial statements. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements.
     We adopted the provisions of FIN No. 48 effective as of January 1, 2007 and there was no significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
     At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, net current taxes payable of $2.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, were included in Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
NOTE 5 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
     Stock Warrants
     In 2004, we issued 508,558 stock warrants to affiliates of Castle Creek Financial LLC for services rendered in connection with the placement of our equity securities. Under the terms of the warrants, the warrant holders may purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.50 per share. The warrants were immediately exercisable and expire after five years. During the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, no shares of common stock were issued in connection with the exercise of stock warrants. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, 0 and 115,392 shares of common stock, respectively, were issued in connection with the exercise of stock warrants.

NOTE 5 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (Continued)
     In connection with the departure of William J. Ruh from Hanmi Financial’s Board of Directors, on April 17, 2007, we entered into a Put Option Agreement with Mr. Ruh and John M. Eggemeyer (the “Warrant Holders”) which provided that Hanmi Financial would, at the request of the Warrant Holders, within the period May 6, 2007 through June 15, 2007, repurchase common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,724 shares of Hanmi Financial’s common stock (the “First Group of Warrants”) held by the Warrant Holders at a purchase price equal to the product of (i) the average of the closing price per share of Hanmi Financial’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market over the five (5) trading days prior to the date of notice of exercise of the put, and (ii) the number of shares of Hanmi Financial common stock that can be purchased upon exercise of the warrant, minus the aggregate exercise price of the warrant if the warrant was exercised in full. On April 17, 2007, we also entered into a Put Option Agreement with certain other parties who were issued warrants for services rendered in connection with the placement of Hanmi Financial’s equity securities, which provided that Hanmi Financial would repurchase common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 73,778 shares of Hanmi Financial’s common stock (the “Second Group of Warrants” and with the First Group of Warrants, the “Warrants”) on the same terms and conditions as the Warrant Holders. On June 1, 2007, we repurchased the Warrants at an aggregate cash purchase price of $2.6 million and such Warrants were then canceled.
     As of June 30, 2007, there were warrants to purchase 4,000 shares of our common stock outstanding.
     Repurchase of Common Stock
     In April 2006, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our common stock as part of our ongoing capital management program. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, 923,800 shares of our common stock were repurchased on the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $15.8 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, 1,321,000 shares of our common stock were repurchased on the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $23.9 million. Repurchased shares are held in treasury pending use for general corporate purposes, including issuances under our stock option plans.
NOTE 6 — OFF-BALANCE SHEET COMMITMENTS
     We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Bank’s exposure to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the other party to commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.

NOTE 7 — SEGMENT REPORTING
     Through our branch network and lending units, we provide a broad range of financial services to individuals and companies located primarily in Southern California. These services include demand, time and savings deposits; and commercial and industrial, real estate and consumer lending. While our chief decision makers monitor the revenue streams of our various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, we consider all of our operations to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
     Some of the statements under “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statement, including risks and uncertainties relating to changes in interest rates, credit quality, governmental regulation, natural disasters, increased competition in our market areas and changes in economic conditions in California, nationally and internationally. For a discussion of some of the factors that might cause such a difference, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Interest Rate Risk Management” and “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date on which such statements were made, except as required by law.
     The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the major factors that influenced our results of operations and financial condition as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. This analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto set forth in this Report.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     We have established various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Certain accounting policies require us to make significant estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these critical accounting policies. For a description of these critical accounting policies, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. We use estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of Hanmi Financial’s Board of Directors.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
     Return on Average Tangible Equity
     Return on average tangible equity is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Hanmi Financial’s performance. Average tangible equity is calculated by subtracting average goodwill and average other intangible assets from average shareholders’ equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from shareholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of Hanmi Financial, as it provides a method to assess management’s success in utilizing tangible capital. This disclosure should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

     Tangible book value per share is supplemental financial information determined by a method other than in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP measure is used by management in the analysis of Hanmi Financial’s performance. Tangible book value per share is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total shareholders’ equity and dividing the difference by the number of shares of common stock outstanding. Management believes the presentation of this financial measure excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of Hanmi Financial, as it provides a method to assess management’s success in utilizing tangible capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
     Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006
     For the three months ended June 30, 2007, net income was $15.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to $15.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The 3.9 percent decrease in net income for 2007 as compared to 2006 was attributable to increases in the provision for credit losses and non-interest expenses, offset by increases in net interest income and non-interest income.
     Effective January 2, 2007, we completed the acquisitions of Chun-Ha Insurance Services, Inc. (“Chun-Ha”) and All World Insurance Services, Inc. (“All World”). The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, so the operating results of Chun-Ha and All World are included from the acquisition date.
     Net interest income increased primarily because average interest-earning assets increased $248.1 million, or 7.8 percent, due to ongoing growth in the loan portfolio. The effect of the growth in average interest-earning assets was partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin due primarily to a more competitive loan pricing environment and a higher cost of funds, reflecting trends in the second half of 2006, when customers placed their funds in certificates of deposit instead of core deposits, and certificates of deposit continued to reprice. The composition of the deposits portfolio and interest rates paid on deposits have remained relatively stable in 2007. However, compared to the second quarter of 2006, the deposits portfolio in the second quarter of 2007 included a larger percentage of time deposits, bearing interest at higher rates. Therefore, the cost of funds increased more than the increase in the yield on interest-earning assets. The net interest margin was 4.51 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 4.84 percent for the same period in 2006.
     Our results of operations are significantly affected by the provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses was $3.0 million and $900,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in the provision for credit losses was attributable to the migration of loans into more adverse risk rating categories and reflects increases in non-performing and delinquent loans.
     For the three months ended June 30, 2007, non-interest income increased by $2.0 million, or 23.4 percent, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006 primarily due to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World, which increased insurance commissions by $1.0 million, and a higher gain on sales of loans.
     Non-interest expenses increased by $1.7 million, or 8.6 percent, due primarily to increases in data processing and other operating expenses, as well as non-interest expenses of $888,000 attributable to Chun-Ha and All World. The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and non-interest income) was 43.61 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 42.06 percent for the same quarter in 2006. Of the 1.55 percent increase, 0.77 percent was attributable to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World.
     The annualized return on average assets was 1.61 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 1.79 percent for the same period in 2006. The annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 12.40 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, and the annualized return on average tangible equity was 22.15 percent, compared to 14.22 percent and 27.46 percent, respectively, for the same period in 2006.
     Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006
     For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net income was $28.4 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to $30.7 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The 7.7 percent decrease in net income for 2007 as compared to 2006 was attributable to increases in the provision for credit losses and non-interest expenses, offset by increases in net interest income and non-interest income.

Table of Contents

     Net interest income increased primarily because average interest-earning assets increased $280.9 million, or 9.0 percent, due to ongoing growth in the loan portfolio. The effect of the growth in average interest-earning assets was partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin due primarily to a more competitive loan pricing environment and a higher cost of funds as customers placed their funds in certificates of deposit instead of core deposits, and certificates of deposit continued to reprice throughout 2006. Therefore, although the composition of the deposits portfolio and interest rates paid on deposits have remained relatively stable in 2007, the cost of funds increased more than the increase in the yield on interest-earning assets compared to the second quarter of 2006. The net interest margin was 4.56 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 4.88 percent for the same period in 2006.
     Our results of operations are significantly affected by the provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses was $9.2 million and $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in the provision for credit losses was attributable to the migration of loans into more adverse risk rating categories and reflects increases in non-performing and delinquent loans.
     For the six months ended June 30, 2007, non-interest income increased by $4.0 million, or 23.7 percent, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006 primarily due to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World, which increased insurance commissions by $2.0 million, and a higher gain on sales of loans.
     Non-interest expenses increased by $4.9 million, or 13.1 percent, due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, and other operating expenses, as well as non-interest expenses of $1.7 million attributable to Chun-Ha and All World. The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and non-interest income) was 43.62 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 40.82 percent for the same quarter in 2006. Of the 2.80 percent increase, 0.87 percent was attributable to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World.
     The annualized return on average assets was 1.51 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 1.77 percent for the same period in 2006. The annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 11.50 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007, and the annualized return on average tangible equity was 20.52 percent, compared to 13.98 percent and 27.23 percent, respectively, for the same period in 2006.
Net Interest Income Before Provision for Credit Losses
     Our earnings depend largely upon the difference between the interest income received from the loan portfolio and other interest-earning assets and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The difference is “net interest income.” Net interest income, when expressed as a percentage of average total interest-earning assets, is referred to as the net interest margin. Net interest income is affected by changes in the level and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as volume changes. Net interest income is also affected by changes in the yields earned on assets and rates paid on liabilities, referred to as rate changes. Interest rates charged on loans are affected principally by the demand for such loans, the supply of money available for lending purposes and competitive factors. Those factors are, in turn, affected by general economic conditions and other factors beyond our control, such as Federal economic policies, the general supply of money in the economy, income tax policies, governmental budgetary matters and the actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Open Market Committee.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, net interest income before provision for credit losses was $38.6 million and $38.4 million, respectively. The net interest spread and net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2007 were 3.25 percent and 4.51 percent, respectively, compared to 3.69 percent and 4.84 percent, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
     Average interest-earning assets increased 7.8 percent to $3.43 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $3.18 billion for the same period in 2006. Average gross loans increased 10.5 percent to $3.01 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $2.73 billion for the same period in 2006, and average investment securities decreased 11.7 percent to $375.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $425.4 million for the same period in 2006. Total loan interest income increased by 10.8 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007 due to the increase in average gross loans outstanding and the increase in the average yield on loans from 8.65 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.68 percent for the same period in 2007. During this period, the average Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (the “Prime Rate”) rose 35 basis points from 7.90 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.25 percent for the same period in 2007. Due to competitive pressures, the average spread over the Prime Rate for new loans and renewals of existing loans decreased. The decrease in the spread also reflects a shift in the mix of the loan portfolio into fixed-rate loans, which generally carry lower interest rates, reflecting the yield curve in effect during the second quarter. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased by 11 basis points from 8.06 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.17 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, reflecting the increase in the average yield on loans previously discussed and a shift in the mix of average interest-earning assets from 85.8 percent loans, 13.4 percent securities and 0.8 percent other interest-earning assets for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 87.9 percent loans, 11.0 percent securities and 1.1 percent other interest-earning assets for the same period in 2007.
     The majority of the interest-earning assets growth was funded by a $135.5 million, or 4.8 percent, increase in average total deposits. Total average interest-bearing liabilities grew by 9.0 percent to $2.55 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $2.34 billion for the same period in 2006. The average interest rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities increased by 55 basis points from 4.37 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 4.92 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to a higher cost of deposits, reflecting trends in the second half of 2006, when customers placed their funds in higher yielding certificates of deposit instead of core deposits, and certificates of deposit continued to reprice. The composition of the deposits portfolio and interest rates paid on deposits have remained relatively stable in 2007. However, compared to the second quarter of 2006, the deposits portfolio in the second quarter of 2007 included a larger percentage of time deposits, bearing interest at higher rates.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, net interest income before provision for credit losses was $76.7 million and $75.3 million, respectively. The net interest spread and net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were 3.31 percent and 4.56 percent, respectively, compared to 3.76 percent and 4.88 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
     Average interest-earning assets increased 9.0 percent to $3.39 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $3.11 billion for the same period in 2006. Average gross loans increased 11.8 percent to $2.95 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $2.64 billion for the same period in 2006, and average investment securities decreased 11.7 percent to $381.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $431.4 million for the same period in 2006. Total loan interest income increased by 14.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007 due to the increase in average gross loans outstanding and the increase in the average yield on loans from 8.56 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.74 percent for the same period in 2007. During this period, the average Prime Rate rose 59 basis points from 7.66 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.25 percent for the same period in 2007. Due to competitive pressures, the average spread over the Prime Rate for new loans and renewals of existing loans decreased. The decrease in the spread also reflects a shift in the mix of the loan portfolio into fixed-rate loans, which generally carry lower interest rates. The yield on average interest-earning assets increased by 26 basis points from 7.94 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to 8.20 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007, reflecting the increase in the average yield on loans previously discussed and a shift in the mix of average interest-earning assets from 84.9 percent loans, 13.9 percent securities and 1.2 percent other interest-earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to 87.0 percent loans, 11.2 percent securities and 1.8 percent other interest-earning assets for the same period in 2007.
     The majority of the interest-earning assets growth was funded by a $135.0 million, or 4.8 percent, increase in average total deposits. Total average interest-bearing liabilities grew by 10.6 percent to $2.52 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $2.28 billion for the same period in 2006. The average interest rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities increased by 71 basis points from 4.18 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to 4.89 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was primarily due to a higher cost of deposits as customers placed their funds in higher yielding certificates of deposit instead of core deposits, and certificates of deposit continued to reprice throughout 2006. The composition of the deposits portfolio and interest rates paid on deposits have remained relatively stable in 2007.

Provision for Credit Losses
     The provision for credit losses was $3.0 million and $900,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net charge-offs were $2.5 million and $353,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The provision for credit losses was $9.2 million and $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net charge-offs were $4.9 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     The increase in the provision for credit losses is attributable primarily to increased migration of loans into more adverse risk ratings. The increase in the provision for credit losses also parallels increases in non-performing loans, which increased from $14.2 million at December 31, 2006 to $22.6 million at June 30, 2007, and delinquent loans, which increased from $19.6 million at December 31, 2006 to $32.0 million at June 30, 2007. While the level of non-performing and delinquent loans are indicators of the credit quality of the portfolio, the provision for credit losses is determined primarily on the basis of loan classifications and the historical loss experience with similarly situated credits.
Non-Interest Income
     Non-interest income is earned from four major sources: service charges on deposit accounts, insurance commissions, fees generated from international trade finance and gain on sales of loans. Non-interest income has become a significant part of revenue in the past several years.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2007, non-interest income was $10.7 million, an increase of 23.4 percent from $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The overall increase in non-interest income is primarily due to increases in insurance commissions and gain on sales of loans.
     Service charges on deposit accounts increased by $255,000, or 6.1 percent, from $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to $4.4 million for three months ended June 30, 2007. Service charge income on deposit accounts increased due to an increase in demand deposit transaction volume and fee increases.
     Insurance commissions increased by $1.0 million from $243,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to $1.3 million for three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase was due to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World in the first quarter of 2007.
     Fees generated from international trade finance increased by 5.5 percent from $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to $1.2 million for three months ended June 30, 2007. Trade finance fees relate primarily to import and export letters of credit. The increase is attributable primarily to increased export letter of credit volume and fee increases.

     Gain on sales of loans was $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 34.4 percent. The increase in gain on sales of loans resulted primarily from increased sales volume in SBA loans, offset by an increase in the cost to originate such loans. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, $35.6 million of SBA loans were sold at an average gain of 4.9 percent, compared to SBA loan sales of $22.4 million at an average gain of 5.6 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The lower gain on sales of loans in 2007 reflects a greater use of brokers to refer loan applications, which results in a higher cost to originate such loans, compared to originations through our branch network. The guaranteed portion of a substantial percentage of SBA loan production is sold in the secondary markets, and servicing rights are retained.

The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and non-interest income) for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 43.61 percent, compared to 42.06 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Of the 1.55 percent increase, 0.89 percent was attributable to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World. The overall increase in non-interest expenses is primarily due to increases in data processing and other operating expenses.
     Salaries and employee benefits were $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, representing an increase of $91,000, or 0.9 percent, compared to $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Salaries and employee benefits increased due to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World and annual salary increases, partially offset by decreased accruals for incentive compensation and a larger percentage of payroll costs capitalized as direct loan origination costs due to higher loan volume in 2007.
     Other operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 increased $822,000, or 31.4 percent, to $3.4 million from $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to deposit operations losses and increases in the amortization and write-downs of loan servicing assets.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, non-interest expenses were $42.5 million and $37.5 million, respectively. The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income before provision for credit losses and non-interest income) for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 43.62 percent, compared to 40.82 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Of the 2.80 percent increase, 0.87 percent was attributable to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World. The overall increase in non-interest expenses is primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing and other operating expenses.
     Salaries and employee benefits were $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, representing an increase of $2.7 million, or 13.6 percent, compared to $19.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Salaries and employee benefits increased due to the acquisitions of Chun-Ha and All World and annual salary increases, partially offset by larger percentage of payroll costs capitalized as direct loan origination costs due to higher loan volume.
     Occupancy and equipment expense was $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, representing an increase of $443,000, or 9.5 percent, compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was due primarily to additional office space leased in 2006 and 2007.
     Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased $1.3 million, or 27.6 percent, to $6.2 million from $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to deposit operations losses and increases in the amortization and write-downs of loan servicing assets.
Provision for Income Taxes
     For the three months ended June 30, 2007, income taxes of $9.4 million were recognized on pre-tax income of $24.8 million, representing an effective tax rate of 38.1 percent, compared to income taxes of $10.4 million recognized on pre-tax income of $26.4 million, representing an effective tax rate of 39.5 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, income taxes of $17.3 million were recognized on pre-tax income of $45.7 million, representing an effective tax rate of 37.9 percent, compared to income taxes of $19.8 million recognized on pre-tax income of $50.6 million, representing an effective tax rate of 39.2 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The periodic effective tax rates reflect a stable level of Enterprise Zone and low-income housing tax credits in periods in which there were fluctuations in taxable income.

Investment Portfolio
     Securities are classified as held to maturity or available for sale in accordance with SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Those securities that we have the ability and intent to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity.” All other securities are classified as “available for sale.” There were no trading securities at June 30, 2007 or December 31, 2006. Securities classified as held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, and available for sale securities are stated at fair value. The securities currently held consist primarily of U.S. Government agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and municipal bonds.

Loan Portfolio
     All loans are carried at face amount, less principal repayments collected, net of deferred loan fees and the allowance for loan losses. Interest on all loans is accrued daily on a simple interest basis. Once a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the accrual of interest is discontinued and previously accrued interest is reversed. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal and interest on a loan is past due 90 days or more, unless a loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.

     At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, loans receivable (including loans held for sale), net of deferred loan fees and allowance for loan losses, totaled $3.02 billion and $2.84 billion, respectively, an increase of $186.3 million, or 6.6 percent. Real estate loans, composed of commercial property, residential property and construction loans, increased $21.1 million, or 2.0 percent, to $1.06 billion at June 30, 2007 from $1.04 billion at December 31, 2006, representing 34.7 percent and 36.3 percent, respectively, of the total loan portfolio. Total commercial and industrial loans, composed of owner-occupied commercial property, trade finance, SBA and lines of credit, increased $171.7 million, or 9.9 percent, to $1.90 billion at June 30, 2007 from $1.73 billion at December 31, 2006, representing 62.1 percent and 60.2 percent, respectively, of the total loan portfolio. Consumer loans decreased $2.6 million, or 2.6 percent, to $97.5 million at June 30, 2007 from $100.1 million at December 31, 2006.
     As of June 30, 2007, there was $389.0 million of loans outstanding, or 12.7 percent of total gross loans outstanding, to borrowers who were involved in the accommodation/hospitality industry. There was no other concentration of loans to any one industry exceeding 10 percent of total gross loans.
Non-Performing Assets
     Non-performing assets consist of loans on non-accrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest, loans restructured where the terms of repayment have been renegotiated resulting in a reduction or deferral of interest or principal, and other real estate owned (“OREO”). Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due unless management believes the loan is adequately collateralized and in the process of collection. Loans may be restructured by management when a borrower has experienced some change in financial status, causing an inability to meet the original repayment terms, and where we believe the borrower eventually will overcome those circumstances and repay the loan in full. OREO consists of properties acquired by foreclosure or similar means that management intends to offer for sale.
     Management’s classification of a loan as non-accrual is an indication that there is reasonable doubt as to the full collectibility of principal or interest on the loan; at this point, we stop recognizing income from the interest on the loan and reverse any uncollected interest that had been accrued but unpaid. These loans may or may not be collateralized, but collection efforts are continuously pursued.

     Non-performing loans were $22.6 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2006. The ratio of non-performing loans to total gross loans increased to 0.74 percent at June 30, 2007 from 0.50 percent at December 31, 2006. As of June 30, 2007, OREO was $1.1 million. As of December 31, 2006, we had no OREO. Non-performing loans include $5.2 million and $4.2 million of loans with credit enhancement in the form of SBA, state or other governmental guarantees at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Allowance for Off-Balance Sheet Items
     Provisions to the allowance for loan losses are made quarterly to recognize probable loan losses. The quarterly provision is based on the allowance need, which is calculated using a formula designed to provide adequate allowances for losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance is determined by assigning loss ratios for all loans based on historical experience. All loans that are classified are then assigned certain allocations according to type with larger percentages applied to loans deemed to be of a higher risk. These percentages are determined based on the prior loss history by type of loan, adjusted for current economic factors.
     The allowance for loan losses and allowance for off-balance sheet items are maintained at levels that are believed to be adequate by management to absorb estimated probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowances is determined through periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio and estimates of future losses, which are inherently subjective as the process calls for various significant estimates and assumptions. Among other factors, the estimates involve the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows and fair value of collateral on impaired loans, estimated losses on loans based on historical loss experience, various qualitative factors, and uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent risks in the various credit portfolios, which may be subject to substantial change.
     On a quarterly basis, we utilize a classification migration model and individual loan review analysis tools as starting points for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and allowance for off-balance sheet items. Our loss migration analysis tracks twelve quarters of loan losses to determine historical loss experience in every classification category (i.e., pass, special mention, substandard and doubtful) for each loan type, except consumer loans (auto, mortgage and credit cards), which are analyzed as homogeneous loan pools. These calculated loss factors are then applied to outstanding loan balances, unused commitments and off-balance sheet exposures, such as letters of credit. The individual loan review analysis is the other part of the allowance allocation process, applying specific monitoring policies and procedures in analyzing the existing loan portfolios. Further allowance assignments are made based on general and specific economic conditions, as well as performance trends within specific portfolio segments and individual concentrations of credit.
     At June 30, 2007, we maintained an allowance for loan losses of $32.2 million and a liability for off-balance sheet exposure, primarily unfunded loan commitments, of $1.7 million. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.05 percent of gross loans at June 30, 2007, compared to 0.96 percent at December 31, 2006. As of June 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses was 142.30 percent of non-performing loans, compared to 193.86 percent at December 31, 2006.

     We determine the appropriate overall allowance for loan losses and allowance for off-balance sheet items based on the analysis described above, taking into account management’s judgment. The allowance methodology is reviewed on a periodic basis and modified as appropriate. Based on this analysis, including the aforementioned factors, we believe that the allowance for loan losses and allowance for off-balance sheet items are adequate as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

     We concentrate the majority of our earning assets in loans. In all forms of lending, there are inherent risks. We concentrate the preponderance of our loan portfolio in either commercial loans or real estate loans. A small part of the portfolio is represented by installment loans primarily for the purchase of automobiles. While we believe that our underwriting criteria are prudent, outside factors can adversely impact credit quality.
     A portion of the portfolio is represented by loans guaranteed by the SBA, which further reduces the potential for loss. We also utilize credit review in an effort to maintain loan quality. Loans are reviewed throughout the year with special attention given to new loans and those that are classified special mention and below. Loans criticized by this credit review are downgraded with appropriate allowance added if required.
     As indicated above, we formally assess the adequacy of the allowance on a quarterly basis by:
    reviewing the adversely graded, delinquent or otherwise questionable loans;
 
    generating an estimate of the loss potential in each such loan;
 
    adjusting a qualitative factor for industry, economic or other external factors; and
 
    evaluating the present status of each loan.
     Although management believes the allowance is adequate to absorb probable losses, no assurance can be given that we will not sustain losses in any given period, which could be substantial in relation to the size of the allowance.

     Core deposit balances were relatively stable during the first half of 2007, while the certificate of deposit portfolio grew modestly during that period as we made greater use of lower cost short-term borrowings to fund loan portfolio growth. Demand deposits decreased $8.1 million, or 1.1 percent, to $720.2 million at June 30, 2007 from $728.3 million at December 31, 2006. Savings accounts decreased $2.2 million, or 2.3 percent, to $97.0 million at June 30, 2007 from $99.3 million at December 31, 2006. Time deposits of $100,000 or more increased $24.9 million, or 1.8 percent, to $1.41 billion at June 30, 2007 from $1.38 billion at December 31, 2006, and other time deposits increased $13.2 million, or 4.5 percent, to $308.7 million at June 30, 2007 from $295.5 million at December 31, 2006, also reflecting this trend.

FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings
     FHLB advances and other borrowings consist primarily of advances from the FHLB and overnight Federal funds. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, advances from the FHLB were $217.9 million and $168.1 million, respectively. At June 30, 2007, overnight Federal funds were $60.0 million. There were no overnight Federal funds at December 31, 2006.
     In 2006 and 2007, we made greater use of borrowings to fund loan growth, including $120.0 million of FHLB advances with maturities of 18 to 24 months obtained in mid-2006 to match-fund fixed-rate loans with contractual maturities of five to seven years. Total average borrowings increased $56.3 million, or 33.9 percent, to $222.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $166.1 million for the same period in 2006. The average interest rate paid increased 44 basis points from 4.83 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 5.27 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2007, reflecting the 34 basis point increase in the Federal funds rate for this period, as well as the relatively flat yield curve that existed in 2006 and the first half of 2007.
     Among the FHLB advances and other borrowings at June 30, 2007, short-term borrowings with remaining maturities of less than one year were $170.9 million, and the weighted-average interest rate thereon was 5.22 percent.
INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
     Interest rate risk indicates our exposure to market interest rate fluctuations. The movement of interest rates directly and inversely affects the economic value of fixed-income assets, which is the present value of future cash flow discounted by the current interest rate. Under the same conditions, the higher the current interest rate, the higher the denominator of discounting. Interest rate risk management is intended to change the level of our exposure to market interest rates. The level of interest rate risk can be managed through such means as the changing of gap positions and the volume of fixed-income assets and liabilities. For successful management of interest rate risk, we use various methods to measure existing and future interest rate risk exposures, giving effect to historical attrition rates of core deposits. In addition to regular reports used in business operations, repricing gap analysis, stress testing and simulation modeling are the main measurement techniques used to quantify interest rate risk exposure.

     The repricing gap analysis measures the static timing of repricing risk of assets and liabilities (i.e., a point-in-time analysis measuring the difference between assets maturing or repricing in a period and liabilities maturing or repricing within the same time period). Assets are assigned to maturity and repricing categories based on their expected repayment or repricing dates, and liabilities are assigned based on their repricing or maturity dates. Core deposits that have no maturity dates (demand deposits, savings, money market checking and NOW accounts) are assigned to categories based on expected decay rates.
     As of June 30, 2007, the cumulative repricing gap as a percentage of interest-earning assets in the less-than-three month period was 16.38 percent. This decrease from the previous quarter’s figure of 26.15 percent was caused primarily by a $173.5 million increase in the fixed-rate loan portfolio, funded primarily by increases of $148.3 million and $130.8 million in fixed rate time deposits and FHLB advances and other borrowings, respectively, with maturities of three months or less. The cumulative repricing percentage in the less than twelve month period also moved lower, reaching (8.24) percent. This was a decrease from the previous quarter’s figure of (4.19) percent. The decrease was caused by an increase of $125.8 million in FHLB advances and other borrowings maturing within one year. In terms of fixed and floating gap positions, which are used internally to control repricing risk, the accumulated fixed gap position between assets and liabilities as a percentage of interest-earning assets was 1.74 percent liability-sensitive, compared to 1.93 percent asset-sensitive as of March 31, 2007. The floating gap position in the less than twelve months period was 5.49 percent liability-sensitive, compared to 2.75 percent liability-sensitive as of March 31, 2007.

     The spread between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities is the principal component of net interest income, and interest rate changes substantially affect our financial performance. We emphasize capital protection through stable earnings rather than maximizing yield. In order to achieve stable earnings, we prudently manage our assets and liabilities and closely monitor the percentage changes in net interest income and equity value in relation to limits established within our guidelines.
     To supplement traditional gap analysis, we perform simulation modeling to estimate the potential effects of interest rate changes. The following table summarizes one of the stress simulations performed to forecast the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the market value of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflected on our balance sheet (i.e., an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve of the magnitude indicated). This sensitivity analysis is compared to policy limits, which specify the maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure over a one-year horizon, given the basis point adjustment in interest rates reflected below.

     The estimated sensitivity does not necessarily represent our forecast and the results may not be indicative of actual changes to our net interest income. These estimates are based upon a number of assumptions including: the nature and timing of interest rate levels including yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, pricing strategies on loans and deposits, and replacement of asset and liability cash flows. While the assumptions used are based on current economic and local market conditions, there is no assurance as to the predictive nature of these conditions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     Liquidity of the Bank is defined as the ability to supply cash as quickly as needed without causing a severe deterioration in profitability. The Bank’s liquidity consists primarily of available cash positions, Federal funds sold and short-term investments categorized as available for sale securities, which can be disposed of without significant capital losses in the ordinary course of business, plus borrowing capacities, which include Federal funds lines, repurchase agreements and FHLB advances. Therefore, maintenance of high quality loans and securities that can be used for collateral in repurchase agreements or other secured borrowings is an important feature of our liquidity management.

33


Table of Contents

     The maintenance of a proper level of liquid assets is critical for both the liquidity and the profitability of the Bank. Since the primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to ensure the Bank has adequate liquidity, management maintains appropriate levels of liquid assets to avoid exposure to higher than necessary liquidity risk. Liquidity risk may increase when the Bank has few short-duration securities available for sale and/or is not capable of raising funds as quickly as necessary at acceptable rates in the capital or money markets. A heavy and sudden increase in cash demands for loans and/or deposits can tighten the liquidity position. Several ratios are reviewed on a daily, monthly and quarterly basis to manage the liquidity position and to preempt any liquidity crisis. Specific statistics, which include the loans-to-assets ratio, off-balance sheet items and dependence on non-core deposits, foreign deposits, lines of credit and liquid assets, are reviewed regularly for liquidity management purposes.

Loans and Investments/Deposits
    115.67 %     112.52 %
Off-Balance Sheet Items/Total Assets
    16.67 %     19.04 %
     The net loans to total assets ratio increased to 78.32 percent as of June 30, 2007 compared to 76.60 percent at December 31, 2006. The ratio of loans and investments to deposits increased to 115.67 percent as the Bank made use of short-term borrowings to fund a portion of loan portfolio growth. Off-balance sheet items as a percentage of total assets decreased at June 30, 2007 to 16.67 percent, compared to 19.04 percent at December 31, 2006. The total amount of off-balance sheet items decreased to $644.0 million at June 30, 2007 from $708.8 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease was primarily due to a $51.3 million decrease in commitments to extend credit. The ratio of short-term non-core funding to total assets was 48.57 percent at June 30, 2007, compared to 46.01 percent at December 31, 2006, and the ratio of core deposits to total assets decreased to 29.09 percent at June 30, 2007, compared to 30.10 percent at March 31, 2007. Overall, the level of liquidity associated with assets and liabilities carried on the Bank’s balance sheet declined slightly, while the decrease in off-balance sheet exposure offset this decline.
     In order to ensure adequate levels of capital, we conduct an ongoing assessment of projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and levels of risk. Management considers, among other things, cash generated from operations, and access to capital from financial markets or the issuance of additional securities, including common stock or notes, to meet our capital needs. Total shareholders’ equity was $486.0 million at June 30, 2007, which represented a decrease of $1.1 million, or 0.2 percent, over total shareholders’ equity of $487.1 million at December 31, 2006.
     The regulatory agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted assets of 8.0 percent and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-adjusted assets of 4.0 percent. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, regulators require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 4.0 percent. For a bank rated in the highest of the five categories used by regulators to rate banks, the minimum leverage ratio is 3.0 percent. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines that apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios.
     At June 30, 2007, Hanmi Financial’s Tier 1 capital (shareholders’ equity plus junior subordinated debentures less intangible assets) was $350.6 million. This represented a decrease of $4.6 million, or 1.3 percent, over Tier 1 capital of $355.2 million at December 31, 2006. At June 30, 2007, Hanmi Financial had a ratio of total capital to total risk-weighted assets of 11.59 percent and a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets of 10.57 percent. The Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.74 percent at June 30, 2007.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
     There were no material changes to the contractual obligations described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
     SFAS No. 159 — In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), which gives entities the option to measure eligible financial assets, and financial liabilities at fair value on an instrument by instrument basis, that are otherwise not permitted to be accounted for at fair value under other accounting standards. The election to use the fair value option is available when an entity first recognizes a financial asset or financial liability. Subsequent changes in fair value must be recorded in earnings. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of a company’s first fiscal year after November 15, 2007. We are required to and plan to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 159 beginning in the first quarter of 2008. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our financial condition and results of operations.
     SFAS No. 157 — In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within that fiscal year. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial condition and results of operations.

     SFAS No. 156 — In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets” (“SFAS No. 156”), which amends the guidance in SFAS No. 140. SFAS No. 156 requires that an entity separately recognize a servicing asset or a servicing liability when it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset under a servicing contract in certain situations. Such servicing assets or servicing liabilities are required to be measured initially at fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 also allows an entity to measure its servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently using either the amortization method, which existed under SFAS No. 140, or the fair value measurement method. We adopted SFAS No. 156 beginning January 1, 2007. SFAS No. 156 has not had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
     SFAS No. 155 — In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and SFAS No. 140” (“SFAS No. 155”). This Statement:
    permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation;
 
    clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to SFAS No. 133;
 
    establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation;
 
    clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordinations are not embedded derivatives; and
 
    amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualified special purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument.
     SFAS No. 155 became effective on January 1, 2007 for all financial instruments acquired or issued after that date. SFAS No. 155 has not had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     For quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding market risks in Hanmi Bank’s portfolio, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Interest Rate Risk Management” and “— Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     As of June 30, 2007, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2007.
     Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
     No change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.
