Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters set forth herein (including any exhibits hereto) constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including forward-looking statements relating to the Company’s current business plans and expectations regarding future operating results. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, the use of forward-looking language, such as “likely result in,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “projects,” “intends to,” or may include other similar words or phrases, such as “believes,” “plans,” “trend,” “objective,” “continues,” “remains,” or similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “can,” or similar verbs.
These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those projected. These risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, include, but are not limited to:
|
• |
business and economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry and our primary market areas; |
|
• |
our ability to successfully manage our credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance for loan loss; |
|
• |
factors that can impact the performance of our loan portfolio, including real estate values and liquidity in our primary market areas, the financial health of our commercial borrowers, the success of construction projects that we finance, including any loans acquired in acquisition transactions; |
|
• |
our ability to effectively execute our strategic plan and manage our growth; |
|
• |
interest rate fluctuations, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability; |
|
• |
liquidity issues, including fluctuations in the fair value and liquidity of the securities we hold for sale and our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary; |
|
• |
external economic and/or market factors, such as changes in monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve, inflation or deflation, changes in the demand for loans, and fluctuations in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits, which may have an adverse impact on our financial condition; |
|
• |
continued or increasing competition from other financial institutions, credit unions, and non-bank financial services companies, many of which are subject to different regulations than we are; |
|
• |
challenges arising from unsuccessful attempts to expand into new geographic markets, products, or services; |
|
• |
restraints on the ability of Open Bank to pay dividends to us, which could limit our liquidity; |
|
• |
increased capital requirements imposed by banking regulators, which may require us to raise capital at a time when capital is not available on favorable terms or at all; |
|
• |
a failure in the internal controls we have implemented to address the risks inherent to the business of banking; |
|
• |
inaccuracies in our assumptions about future events, which could result in material differences between our financial projections and actual financial performance; |
|
• |
changes in our management personnel or our inability to retain, motivate and hire qualified management personnel; |
|
• |
disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems; |
|
• |
disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events affecting the third-party vendors who perform several of our critical processing functions; |
|
• |
an inability to keep pace with the rate of technological advances due to a lack of resources to invest in new technologies; |
|
• |
risks related to potential acquisitions; |
|
• |
incremental costs and obligations associated with operating as a public company; |
|
• |
the impact of any claims or legal actions to which we may be subject, including any effect on our reputation; |
|
• |
compliance with governmental and regulatory requirements, including the Dodd-Frank Act and others relating to banking, consumer protection, securities and tax matters, and our ability to maintain licenses required in connection with commercial mortgage origination, sale and servicing operations; |
|
• |
changes in federal tax law or policy; and |
|
• |
our ability the manage the foregoing and other factors set forth in the Company’s public reports including its Registration Statement on Form S-1 effective as of March 27, 2018, and particularly the discussion of risk factors within that document. |
The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this report. Because of these risks and other uncertainties, our actual future results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the results indicated by the forward looking statements in this report. In addition, our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results. You should not rely on any forward looking statements, which represent our beliefs, assumptions and estimates only as of the dates on which they were made, as predictions of future events. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
Note 1. Business Description
OP Bancorp (the “Company”) is a California corporation whose common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol, “OPBK.” The Company was formed to acquire 100% of the voting equity of Open Bank (the “Bank”) and commenced operation as a bank holding company on June 1, 2016. This transaction was treated as an internal reorganization as all shareholders of the Bank became shareholders of the Company. The Company has no operations other than ownership of the Bank. The Bank is a California state-chartered and FDIC-insured financial institution, which began its operations on June 10, 2005. Headquartered in downtown Los Angeles, California, the Company operates primarily in the traditional banking business arena that includes accepting deposits and making loans and investments. The Company’s primary deposit products are demand and time deposits, and the primary lending products are commercial business loans to small to medium sized businesses. The Company is operating with eight full service branches in Downtown Los Angeles, Los Angeles Fashion District, Los Angeles Koreatown, Gardena, Buena Park and Santa Clara. The Company also has three loan production offices in Seattle, Washington, Dallas, Texas, and Atlanta, Georgia.
On March 27, 2018, the Company completed its initial public offering of common stock, pursuant to which an aggregate of 2,300,000 shares of its common stock were sold at a public offering price of $11.00 per share, for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $22.6 million, after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions paid by it of approximately $1.7 million and other offering expenses of approximately $925,000. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from the initial public offering as described in the Company’s Prospectus.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q and conform to practices within the banking industry and include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Companys’ registration statement on Form S-1 (333-223444) filed with the SEC on March 5, 2018 and declared effective on March 27, 2018.
Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ.
Concentration of Risk: Most of the Company’s customers are located within Los Angeles County and the surrounding area. The concentration of loans originated in this area may subject the Company to the risk of adverse impacts of economic, regulatory or other developments that could occur in Southern California. The Company has significant concentration in commercial real estate loans. The Company obtains what it believes to be sufficient collateral to secure potential losses. The extent and value of the collateral obtained varies based upon the details underlying each loan agreement.
Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents include cash, deposits with other financial institutions with original maturities less than 90 days, and federal funds sold. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and Federal Home Loan Bank advances transactions.
Securities: Securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax. Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.
8
Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. For securities in an unrealized loss position, management considers the extent and duration of the unrealized loss, and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Management also assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized as impairment through earnings. For debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment is split into two components as follows: 1) OTTI related to credit loss, which must be recognized in the income statement, and 2) OTTI related to other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. The credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis.
Other investments: Other investments includes the followings : (i) Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock - the Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income; (ii) Pacific Coast Bankers Bank (“PCBB”) Stock - the Bank is a member of PCBB. PCBB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income; and (iii) the Company’s investment in a mutual fund to satisfy the Company’s requirements under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”). CRA mutual fund is reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Loans Held for Sale: Certain Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans that may be sold prior to maturity are designated as held for sale at origination and are recorded at the lower of their cost or fair value less costs to sell, determined on an aggregate basis. A valuation allowance is established if the market value of such loans is lower than their cost, and operations are charged or credited for valuation adjustments. Origination fees on loans held for sale, net of certain costs of processing and closing the loans, are deferred until the time of sale and are included in the computation of the gain or loss from the sales of the related loans. A portion of the premium on sale of SBA loans is recognized as gains on sales of loans at the time of the sale. These loans are generally sold with servicing retained.
Loans Receivable: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. The recorded investment in loans includes accrued interest receivable, deferred loan fees and costs, and unearned income.
The accrual of interest income on commercial real estate and other commercial and industrial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days still on accrual include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.
All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that in management’s judgment should be charged off.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.
9
Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired. Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.
Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial real estate and construction loans. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Income recognition on impaired loans materially conforms to the method the Company uses for income recognition on nonaccrual loans.
Allowance for impaired loans is determined based on the present value of the estimated cash flows or on the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, less costs to sell. If the measured fair value is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the deficiency will be charged off against the allowance for loan losses, or alternatively, a specific allocation will be established. For consumer loans, management will generally charge off the balance if the loan is 90 days or more past due.
The general component of the allowance covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the most recent two years. For those portfolio segments that the Company does not have sufficient historical data available to track the loss migration, the loss factors are based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the most recent five years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These economic factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations..
The following portfolio segments have been identified in the Company’s loan portfolio, and are also representative of the classes within the portfolio: commercial real estate, SBA loans—real estate, SBA loans—non-real estate, commercial and industrial, home mortgage, and consumer. The Company reviews the credit risk exposure of all its portfolio segments by internally assigned grades. The Company categorizes loans into risk grades based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. For the home mortgage and consumer portfolio segments, the Company’s primary monitoring tool is reviewing past due listings to determine if the loans are performing.
The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible to changes in the economic environment and market conditions.
Management believes that as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the allowance for loan losses is adequate based on information currently available. If a deterioration in the economy of the Company’s principal market area occurs, the Company’s loan portfolios could be adversely impacted and higher charge-offs and increases in non-performing assets could result. Such an adverse impact could also require a larger allowance for loan losses.
Servicing Assets: When SBA loans are sold with servicing retained, servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in gains on sales of loans. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate, prepayment speeds, and default rates and losses. The Company compares the valuation model inputs and results to published industry data in order to validate the model results and assumptions. Servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing assets to be amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.
10
Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the assets as compared to their carrying amount. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists, a reduction of the valuation allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in the valuation allowances are reported with other income on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds, default rates, and losses.
Servicing fee income, which is reported on the income statement as other income, is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of servicing assets is netted against loan servicing fee income. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not material.
Company Owned Life Insurance: The Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Company owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement.
Transfers of Financial Assets: Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Equipment and furnishings are depreciated over 3 to 10 years, and leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the terms of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives. The straight-line method of depreciation is used for financial reporting purposes. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operating expenses as incurred.
Other Real Estate Owned, Net: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. Physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan occurs when the legal title is obtained upon completion of foreclosure or when the borrower conveys all interest in the property to satisfy the loan through the completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. These assets are subsequently accounted for at the lower of their cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If their fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Operating costs after acquisition are expensed.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Stock-Based Compensation: Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued to employees based on the fair value of the awards at the date of grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant is used for restricted stock awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
Earnings per Common Share: Basic and diluted earnings per share is based on the two-class method prescribed in ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share (ASC 260). Stock options and restricted stock awards are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock-based compensation plans. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for all stock splits and stock dividends through the date of issuance of the financial statements.
Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.

The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. There were no interest or penalties recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 or 2017.
Comprehensive Income/(Loss): Comprehensive income/(loss) consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, which are also recognized as separate components of shareholders’ equity, net of tax.
Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 13—Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect these estimates.
Operating Segments: While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a Company-wide basis.
Reclassifications: Some items in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassification had no effect on prior year net income or shareholders’ equity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2014-9 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12 which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09.
The majority of the Company’s revenue consists of net interest income on financial assets and financial liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09. The Company adopted the new standard beginning January 1, 2018. The Company completed its analysis for determining the extent ASU 2014-09 will affect its noninterest income, primarily in the area of fees and service charges on deposit accounts and trade finance activities. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not have a material change in the timing or measurement of revenues related to noninterest income. This guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 12. Revenue Recognition for further details.
Effective January 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01). The main objective of ASU 2016-01 is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Some of the amendments in ASU 2016-01 include the following: 1) Require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; 2) Simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; 3) Require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; and 4) Require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value. For public business entities, the amendments of ASU 2016-01 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 resulted in a transfer of $2.5 million of a mutual funds from securities available for sale to other investments on the consolidted balance sheet. However, this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. See Note 13 for fair value measurement disclosures.
12
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. This ASU is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Based on leases outstanding at September 30, 2018, the Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the income statement, but does anticipate an approximately $13 million increase in assets and liabilities once this ASU becomes effective.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). The objective of ASU 2016-13 is to provide financial statement users with decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit. ASU 2016-13 includes provisions that require financial assets measured at amortized cost (such as loans and held to maturity (HTM) debt securities) to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This will be accomplished through recognition of an estimate of all current expected credit losses. The estimate will include forecasted information for the timeframe that an entity is able to develop reasonable and supportable forecasts. This is a change from the current practice of recognizing incurred losses based on the probable initial recognition threshold under current GAAP. In addition, credit losses on available for sale (AFS) debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a write-down. Under ASU 2016-13, an entity will be able to record reversals of credit losses in current period income when the estimate of credit losses declines, whereas current GAAP prohibits reflecting those improvements in current period earnings.
ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-13 will be applied through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings (modified-retrospective approach), except for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. A prospective transition approach is required for these debt securities. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2016-13 on its financial statements and disclosures, including software solutions, data requirements and loss estimation methodologies. The company has engaged a third party advisor to develop a new expected loss model. While the effects cannot yet be quantified, the Company expects ASU 2016-13 to add complexity and costs to its current credit loss evaluation process.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) (ASU 2017-08). ASU 2017-08 amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. Prior to the issuance of this guidance, premiums were amortized as an adjustment of yield over the contractual life of the instrument. ASU 2017-08 requires premiums on purchased callable debt securities that have explicit, noncontingent call features that are callable at fixed prices to be amortized to the earliest call date. There are no accounting changes for securities held at a discount. This ASU is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. ASU 2017-08 will be applied through a cumulative effect adjustment through equity (modified-retrospective approach). The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope of Modification Accounting (ASU 2017-09). ASU 2017-09 clarifies when changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards must be treated as modifications. Specifically, the new guidance permits companies to make certain changes to awards without accounting for them as modifications. ASU 2017-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2017 and will be applied prospectively to an award modified after the effective date. There have been no changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards, and as a result the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This ASU permits a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. The Company did not elect to apply the provision of ASU 2018-02.

The Company believes that the unrealized losses are temporary, arising mainly from fluctuations in interest rates and do not reflect a deterioration of credit quality of the issuers. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity. Management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.
There were no securities pledged as collateral at September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

Troubled Debt Restructurings: As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had a recorded investment in troubled debt restructurings of $345,430 and $353,985, respectively. The Company has allocated $345,430 and $353,985 of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company has not committed to lend any additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.
Modifications made were primarily extensions of existing payment modifications on loans previously identified as troubled debt restructurings. There were no new loans identified as trouble debt restructurings during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 or during the year ended December 31, 2017. There were no payment defaults during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 or during the year ended December 31, 2017 of loans that had been modified as troubled debt restructurings within the previous twelve months.
Credit Quality Indicators: The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. For consumer loans, a credit grade is established at inception, and generally only adjusted based on performance. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Special Mention—Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Company’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard—Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful—Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans.
19
As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:
|
|
Pass |
|
|
Special Mention |

Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Risk: The commitments and contingent liabilities include various commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which arise in the normal course of business. Commitments to extend credit are legally binding loan commitments with set expiration dates. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. They are intended to be disbursed, subject to certain conditions, upon request of the borrower.
The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer. Collateral, if deemed necessary by the Company upon the extension of credit, is obtained based on management’s evaluation of the borrower. Collateral for commercial and industrial loans may vary, but may include securities, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income producing commercial or other properties. The following table shows the distribution of undisbursed loan commitments as of the dates indicated:

2005 Plan: In 2005, the Board of Directors and shareholders of the Bank approved a stock option plan for the benefit of directors and employees of the Bank (the “2005 Plan”). The 2005 Plan was assumed by the Company in 2016 at the time of the bank holding company reorganization. Under the 2005 Plan, the Bank was authorized to grant options to purchase up to 770,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The exercise prices of the options may not be less than 100 percent of the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant.
The options, when granted, vest either immediately or ratably over five years from the date of the grant and expire after ten years if not exercised.
There were no stock options granted under the 2005 Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 or 2017.

There were no shares available for grant under the 2005 Plan as of September 30, 2018. The weighted average remaining contractual term of stock options outstanding under the 2005 Plan at September 30, 2018 was 2.84 years. The weighted average remaining contractual term of stock options that were exercisable at September 30, 2018 was 2.73 years.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $3,058 of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options under the 2005 Plan. The Company expects to recognize these costs over a weighted average period of 0.13 year.
2010 Plan: In 2010, the Board of Directors of the Bank approved a new equity incentive plan for granting stock options and restricted stock awards to key employees, officers, and non-employee directors of the Bank (the “2010 Plan”). In 2013, the 2010 Plan was amended and approved by the shareholders to increase the number of shares authorized to be issued under from 1,350,000 shares to 2,500,000 shares of common stock. The 2010 Plan was assumed by the Company in 2016 at the time of the bank holding company reorganization.
The exercise prices of stock options granted under the plan may not be less than 100 percent of the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. The options, when granted, vest ratably over five years from the date of the grant and expire after ten years if not exercised. There were no stock options granted under the 2010 Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 or 2017.
Restricted stock awards issued under the 2010 Plan may or may not be subject to vesting provisions. Awards which were granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 vest at the end of three years from the date of the grant. No awards were granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Owners of the restricted stock awards shall have all of the rights of a shareholder including the right to vote the shares and to all dividends (cash or stock). Compensation expense related to restricted stock awards will be recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the issue date.

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, letters of credit, and investment securities, as well as revenue related to mortgage servicing activities and revenue on bank owned life insurance, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within the disclosures. Descriptions of the Company’s revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in the Company’s income statements as components of noninterest income are as follows:
Service charges on deposits: Income from service charges on deposits is within the scope of ASC 606. These include general service fees for monthly account maintenance and activity or transaction-based fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue on these types of fees are recognized when the Company’s performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed. Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligations are satisfied. $558,000 or 1.5% of total revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, of service charges on deposits is related to these revenue streams. Service charges on deposits also include overdraft and NSF fees. Overdraft fees are charged when a depositor has a draw on their account that has inadequate funds. In certain instances, the Company, at its sole discretion, may pay to the party requesting the draw on the deposit account, the balance of the draw for which there are inadequate funds rather than denying payment of the item. The Company then charges a fee for this short term extension of credit to the depositor for not complying with the balance requirements stipulated in the deposit agreement with the Bank, and as well as to cover the cost of advancing those funds. NSF fees are charged to customers when in the event of a draw on the customer's account that has insufficient funds to meet the payment of the draw (such as through written checks or ACH transactions), the Company returns the item rather than paying the balance of the draw for which the customer has inadequate funds. This typically happens when the customer has fairly sizable draws or multiple draws on an account that has inadequate funds to meet the demands for payment. $861,000, or 2.3% of total revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, of service charges on deposits is from overdraft and NSF fees.
Wire transfer fee income: This revenue stream is generated through the processing of customers’ incoming and outgoing wire transfers. Income generated from wire transfer fees is within the scope of ASC 606 and approximately $243,000, or 0.7% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, is included in other income in noninterest income.
Other revenue streams that are recorded in other income in noninterest income include revenue generated from letters of credit and income on bank owned life insurance. These revenue streams are either not material or out of scope of ASC 606.
Note 13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2—Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:
Securities Available for Sale: The fair values of investment securities are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2). Management obtains the fair values of investment securities on a monthly basis from a third-party pricing service.
25
Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s judgment, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
Appraisals for collateral-dependent impaired loans are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the credit department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30 2018 and December 31, 2017 are summarized below:

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
(a) Cash and Cash equivalents
The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.
(b) Loans Held for Sale
The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.
(c) Loans Receivable, Net
Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are based on the exit price notion set forth by ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018 and estimated using discounted cash flow analyses. The estimation of fair values of loans results in a Level 3 classification as it requires various assumptions and considerable judgement to incorporate factors relevant when selling loans to market participants, such as funding costs, return requirements of likely buyers and performance expectations of the loans given the current market environment and quality of loans. Estimated fair value of loans carried at cost at December 31, 2017 were based on an entry price notion.
(d) Other Investments
Fair value of CRA qualified mutual fund is readily determinable using quoted prices and is classified as Level 1. It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB and PCBB stock due to restrictions placed on their transferability.
(e) Deposits
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 2 classification. The carrying amounts of variable rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 2 classification. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.
(f) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
The fair values of Federal Home Loan Bank Advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements, resulting in a Level 2 classification.
27
(g) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value and are classified within the same fair value hierarchy level as the related asset or liability.
(h) Off-balance Sheet Instruments
Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.
Note 14. Regulatory Capital Matters
Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (Basel III rules) became effective for the Company on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under the Basel III rules, the Company must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019. The capital conservation buffers for 2016, 2017 and 2018 are 0.625%, 1.25% and 1.875%, respectively. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities is not included in computing regulatory capital. Management believes as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company and Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.
Actual and required capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios, exclusive of the capital conservation buffer, are presented below at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

Note 15. Earnings per Share
The two-class method is used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings available to common shares are allocated between common shares and participating securities. The Company’s restricted stock awards are considered participating securities as the unvested awards have non-forfeitable rights to dividends, paid or unpaid, on unvested awards. The factors used in the earnings per share computation follow:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2017 and our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Completion of Initial Public Offering
On March 27, 2018, we completed our initial public offering of common stock, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 2,300,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $11.00 per share, for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $22.6 million, after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions paid by us of approximately $1.7 million and other offering expenses of approximately $961,000. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our initial public offering as described in our Prospectus.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and conform to general practices within the industry in which we operate. To prepare financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates, assumptions and judgments based on available information. These estimates, assumptions and judgments affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements and, as this information changes, actual results could differ from the estimates, assumptions and judgments reflected in the financial statement. In particular, management has identified several accounting policies that, due to the estimates, assumptions and judgments inherent in those policies, are critical in understanding our financial statements.
The following is a discussion of the critical accounting policies and significant estimates that require us to make complex and subjective judgments. Additional information about these policies can be found in Note 2 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.
The ALL is maintained at a level that management believes is appropriate to provide for known and inherent incurred loan losses as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet and we have established methodologies for the determination of its adequacy. The methodologies are set forth in a formal policy and take into consideration the need for an overall general valuation allowance as well as specific allowances that are determined on an individual loan basis.
The evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, changes in economic or other conditions may necessitate revision of the estimate in future periods.
Servicing Assets
Servicing assets are recognized separately when loans are sold and the rights to service loans are retained. When loans are sold, servicing assets are recorded at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (“ASC 860”). Fair value is based on market prices for comparable servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The fair value of servicing rights is highly sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions. Changes in the prepayment speed and discount rate assumptions have the most significant impact on the fair value of servicing assets.
31
Servicing fee income, which is reported on the income statement as other income, is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of servicing assets is netted against loan servicing fee income. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not material.

Results of Operations—Comparison for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017
The following discussion of our results of operations compares the three months ended September 30, 2018 to the three months ended September 30, 2017.
32
We reported net income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 of $3.5 million compared to net income of $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $753,000or 27.6%. The increase was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in net interest income, a $569,000 decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by a $961,000 increase in noninterest expense.
Net Interest Income
The management of interest income and expense is fundamental to our financial performance. Net interest income, the difference between interest income and interest expense, is the largest component of the Company’s total revenue. Management closely monitors both total net interest income and the net interest margin (net interest income divided by average earning assets). We seek to maximize net interest income without exposing the Company to an excessive level of interest rate risk through our asset and liability policies. Interest rate risk is managed by monitoring the pricing, maturity and repricing options of all classes of interest-bearing assets and liabilities. Our net interest margin is also adversely impacted by the reversal of interest on nonaccrual loans and the reinvestment of loan payoffs into lower yielding investment securities and other short-term investments.
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, information about: (i) weighted average balances, the total dollar amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) average balances, the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average rates; (iii) net interest income; (iv) the interest rate spread; and (v) the net interest margin.

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 average interest rates. The following tables set forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income during the period shown. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income attributable to changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by prior rate) and (ii) effects on interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). Change applicable to both volume and rate have been allocated to volume.

Interest income increased $2.6 million, or 24.8%, to $13.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $10.4 million for the same period in 2017, primarily due to the growth in average loans and securities and increase in the average yields on loans and securities.
Average loans increased $138.4 million, or 19.2%, to $859.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $720.9 million for the same period in 2017. Average securities available for sale increased $4.8 million, or 12.1%, to $44.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $39.6 million for the same period in 2017. Average interest-earning assets increased $156.3 million, or 20.0%, to $937.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $781.6 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in average loans was primarily due to new loan production, and the increase in average securities was due to purchases of available for sale securities.
The average yield on loans increased 22 basis points to 5.79% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 5.57% for the same period in 2017, primarily due to cumulative market rate increases by the Federal Reserve of 75 basis points through three rate hikes of 25 basis points in each of, December 2017, March 2018, and June 2018. The average yield on securities increased 37 basis points to 2.24% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 1.87% for the same period in 2017, attributable primarily to purchasing higher yielding securities. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 22 basis points to 5.51% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 5.57% for the same period in 2017.
The average yield on Federal funds sold and other investments increased 38 basis points to 2.68% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 2.30% for the same period in 2017, primarily due to aforementioned market rate increases by the Federal Reserve and an increase in the average balance of other investments with higher yields than Federal funds sold, due to a purchase of additional FHLB stock and a reclassification of a CRA qualified mutual fund to other investments.
34
Interest expense increased $1.3 million, or 108.2%, to $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from $1.2 million for the same period in 2017, primarily due to the growth in average interest-bearing deposits and higher rates paid on interest-bearing deposits as a result of cumulative market rate increases by the Federal Reserve.
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $117.9 million, or 24.9%, to $592.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared with $474.4 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities resulted primarily from a $131.3 million increase in average time deposits. Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased $2.6 million, or 1.0%, to $258.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $260.9 million for the same period in 2017.
The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 68 basis points to 1.69% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 1.01% for the same period in 2017.
Net interest income increased $1.3 million, or 13.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, to $10.5 million compared to $9.2 million for the same period in 2017. The net interest spread and net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were 3.82% and 4.44%, respectively, compared with 4.28% and 4.68%, respectively, for the same period in 2017.
Provision for Loan Losses
Credit risk is inherent in the business of making loans. We establish an allowance for loan losses through charges to earnings, which are shown in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income as the provision for loan losses. Specifically identifiable and quantifiable known losses are promptly charged off against the allowance. The provision for loan losses is determined by conducting a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses and charging the shortfall, if any, to the current quarter’s expense. This has the effect of creating variability in the amount and frequency of charges to earnings. The provision for loan losses and level of allowance for each period are dependent upon many factors, including loan growth, net charge-offs, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquencies, management’s assessment of the quality of the loan portfolio, the valuation of problem loans and the general economic conditions in our market area.
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $439,000 compared to $278,000 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $161,000, or 57.7%. The increase was primarily due to a $114.0 million, or 15.5%, increase in gross loans to $850.0 million at September 30, 2018 from $736.1 million at September 30, 2017. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans was 1.12% and 1.21% at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Noninterest Income
On January 1, 2018 the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, as revised under ASUs 2014-09, 2014-08 and 2016-20, and noninterest income disclosures for periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under revised ASC Topic 606. The adoption of ASC Topic 606 did not have a material impact on interest income.
While interest income remains the largest single component of total revenues, noninterest income is also an important component. A portion of our noninterest income is associated with SBA lending activity, consisting of gains on the sale of loans sold in the secondary market and servicing income from loans sold with servicing retained. The servicing assets that result from the sales of SBA loans with servicing retained are amortized over the expected term of the loans using a method approximating the interest method. Servicing income generally declines as the respective loans are repaid. Other sources of noninterest income include loan servicing fees, service charges and fees, and gains on the sale of securities.
Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 increased $29,000, or 1.3%, to $2.3 million compared to the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to a $90,000 increase in service charges on deposits, partially offset by a decrease of $57,000 in gains on sale of SBA loans. The Company sold $22.8 million in SBA loans with a gain of $1.1 million on sale for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $15.0 million in SBA loans with a gain of $1.2 million on sale for the same period in 2017. The reduction of gains on sale of SBA loans for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was due to a decrease in an average premium rates to 6.47% from 9.97% for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The significant decrease in average premium rates on SBA loans sold in the secondary market was primarily due to faster prepayment speed in SBA loans as more borrowers are refinancing SBA loans to conventional loans with lower interest rates, which in turn shortens investors’ term and reducing investment value.

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $539,000, or 12.6%, to $4.8 million from $4.3 million for the same period in 2017. This increase was attributable to an increase in the number of employees to support continued growth, annual salary adjustments, and increased benefit costs. The average number of full-time equivalent employees was 150.0 and 130.8 in the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Professional fees increased $145,000, or 97.3%, to $294,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $149,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was due to an increase in legal fees related to other corporate matters during the third quarter of 2018.
Our aggregate donations to the Foundation and other charitable and community contributions for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $369,000 compared to $284,000 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $85,000, or 30.0%. The increase was due to increased donation accruals for the Foundation, which is directly proportionate to the growth in our after-tax income. On an annual basis, we donate 10% of our consolidated net income after taxes to the Foundation.
Promotion and advertising expense increased $65,000, or 41.4%, to $222,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $157,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising expense related to the Company’s first time TV commercial.
Other expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $399,000 compared to $270,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily driven by supporting continued growth of the Company.
36
Income tax expense was $1.1 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 24.7 percent and 38.6 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The significant decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the enactment of H.R.1, commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, on December 22, 2017.
Results of Operations—Comparison for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017
The following discussion of our results of operations compares the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
We reported net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of $10.5 million compared to net income of $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $3.2 million or 43.0%. The increase was primarily due to a $4.0 million increase in net interest income, a $571,000 increase in noninterest income and a $925,000 decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in noninterest expense.

Interest income increased $7.0 million, or 24.1%, to $36.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $29.2 million for the same period in 2017, primarily due to the growth in average loans and securities and increase in the average yields on loans and securities.
Average loans increased $125.9 million, or 18.0%, to $825.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $699.9 million for the same period in 2017. Average securities available for sale increased $5.1 million, or 14.3%, to $41.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $35.9 million for the same period in 2017. Average interest-earning assets increased $135.6 million, or 17.9%, to $894.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $758.9 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in average loans was primarily due to new loan production, and the increase in average securities was due to purchases of available for sale securities.
The average yield on loans increased 25 basis points to 5.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 5.42% for the same period in 2017, primarily due to cumulative market rate increases by the Federal Reserve of 75 basis points through three rate hikes of 25 basis points in each of December 2017, March 2018, and June 2018. The average yield on securities increased 33 basis points to 2.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 1.77% for the same period in 2017, attributable primarily to purchasing higher yielding securities. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 27 basis points to 5.41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 5.14% for the same period in 2017.
The average yield on Federal funds sold and other investments increased 67 basis points to 2.69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 2.02% for the same period in 2017, primarily due to aforementioned market rate increases by the Federal Reserve and an increase in the average balance of other investments with higher yields than Federal funds sold, due to a purchase of additional FHLB stock and a reclassification of CRA qualified mutual fund to other investments.
Interest expense increased $3.0 million, or 94.4%, to $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from $3.2 million for the same period in 2017, primarily due to the growth in average interest-bearing deposits and higher rates paid on interest-bearing deposits.
39
Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $104.5 million, or 22.8%, to $563.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared with $458.5 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities resulted primarily from an $99.9 million increase in average time deposits and a $2.8 million increase in average borrowings. Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $5.6 million, or 2.2%, to $257.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $252.1 million for the same period in 2017.
The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 55 basis points to 1.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 0.93% for the same period in 2017.
Net interest income increased $4.0 million, or 15.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to $30.0 million compared to $26.0 million for the same period in 2017. The net interest spread and net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were 3.93% and 4.49%, respectively, compared with 4.21% and 4.58%, respectively, for the same period in 2017.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $1,047,000 compared to $989,000 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $58,000, or 5.9%. The increase in provision for loan losses for periods in 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017 was primarily due to an increase in gross loan balances. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans was 1.12% and 1.21% at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $7.3 million, an increase of $571,000, or 8.5%, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to a $315,000 increase in gains on sale of SBA loans and a $218,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts. Gains on SBA loan sales were $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $3.5 million from the same period in 2017. The increase in gains on SBA loan sales was due to an increase in the volume of loan sales to $61.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, from $47.6 million in the same period in 2017, partially offset by a decrease in an average premium rate on SBA loans sold. The average premium rate on SBA loans sold in the secondary market was 7.91% and 9.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. The significant decrease in average premium rates on SBA loans sold in the secondary market was primarily due to accelerated prepayments speed in SBA loans as more borrowers are refinancing SBA loans to conventional loans with lower interest rates, which in turn shortens investors’ term and reducing investment value. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $218,000 to $1.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $1.2 million in the same period in 2017, primarily due to an increase in service charges on deposits accounts.

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased $1.2 million, or 9.8%, to $13.6 million from $12.4 million for the same period in 2017. This increase was attributable to an increase in the number of employees to support continued growth, annual salary adjustments, and increased benefit costs. The average number of full-time equivalent employees was 142.3 and 129.9 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Professional fees increased $177,000, or 40.7%, to $612,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $435,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was due to an increase in legal fee and other professional services related to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering of common stock during the nine month period in 2018.
Our aggregate donations to the Foundation and other charitable and community contributions for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $1.1 million compared to $752,000 for the same period in 2017, an increase of $332,000, or 44.1%. The increase was due to increased donation accruals for the Foundation, which is directly proportionate to the growth in our after-tax income.
Promotion and advertising expense increased $140,000, or 30.6%, to $598,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $458,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising expense related to our initial public offering and creation of a TV commercial.
Other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $1.1 million compared to $813,000 for the same period in 2017. The increase was in line with the growth of the Company.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased $925,000, or 19.6%, to $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $4.7 million for the same period in 2017. The effective income tax rate was 26.5 percent and 39.1 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The significant decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the enactment the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $134.0 million, or 14.9%, to $1.0 billion at September 30, 2018 compared to $901.0 million at December 31, 2017. This increase primarily resulted from an increase of $102.0 million, or 13.6%, in gross loans. We funded our asset growth primarily with an increase of $123.6 million in deposits and a $22.6 million of net proceeds from our initial public offering on March 27, 2018.
Investment portfolio
The securities portfolio is the second largest component of our interest earning assets, and the structure and composition of this portfolio is important to an analysis of our financial condition. The portfolio serves the following purposes: (i) it provides a source of pledged assets for securing certain deposits and borrowed funds, as may be required by law or by specific agreement with a depositor or lender; (ii) it provides liquidity to even out cash flows from the loan and deposit activities of customers; (iii) it can be used as an
41
interest rate risk management tool, because it provides a large base of assets, the maturity and interest rate characteristics of which can be changed more readily than the loan portfolio to better match changes in the deposit base and our other funding sources; and (iv) it is an alternative interest-earning use of funds when loan demand is weak or when deposits grow more rapidly than loans.
We classify our securities as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity at the time of purchase. Accounting guidance requires available-for-sale securities to be marked to fair value with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of shareholders’ equity. Monthly adjustments are made to reflect changes in the fair value of our available-for-sale securities.
All of the securities in our investment portfolio were classified as available-for-sale at September 30, 2018. There were no held-to-maturity securities in our investment portfolio at September 30, 2018. All available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value. Securities available-for-sale consist primarily of US government-sponsored agency securities, home mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.
Securities available-for-sale increased $4.9 million, or 11.7%, to $46.3 million at September 30, 2018 from $41.5 million at December 31, 2017, primarily due to a $10.0 million purchase of available for sale collateralized mortgage obligations in May 2018, partially offset by the paydowns on home mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations and the reclassification of a CRA qualified mutual fund to other investments following the adoption of ASU 2016-01 effective January 2018. No issuer of the available-for-sale securities, other than FNMA and FHLMC, comprised more than ten percent of our shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.
The following table summarizes the fair value of the available-for-sale securities portfolio as of the dates presented.

Certain securities have fair values less than amortized cost and, therefore, contain unrealized losses. At September 30, 2018, we evaluated the securities which had an unrealized loss for other than temporary impairment (OTTI) and determined all decline in value to be temporary. We anticipate full recovery of amortized cost with respect to these securities by maturity, or sooner in the event of a more favorable market interest rate environment. We do not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell them before recovery of the amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding contractual maturities and the weighted average yields of our investment securities as of the dates presented. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities if borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. We have no securities with contractual maturities due in one year or less as of September 30, 2018.

We have not used interest rate swaps or other derivative instruments to hedge fixed rate loans or securities to otherwise mitigate interest rate risk.
Loans
Our loans represent the largest portion of our earning assets, substantially greater than the securities portfolio or any other asset category, and the quality and diversification of the loan portfolio is an important consideration when reviewing our financial condition.
At September 30, 2018, gross loans including deferred costs totaled $850.0 million compared to $748.0 million at December 31, 2017, an increase of $102.0 million, or 13.6%. The increase in our gross loans resulted from organic growth in most of our loan categories.
The loan distribution table that follows sets forth our gross loans outstanding, and the percentage distribution in each category as of the dates indicated:

Our loan portfolio is concentrated in commercial real estate, commercial (primarily manufacturing, wholesale, and services-oriented entities), SBA loans (unguaranteed portion) with the remaining balance in home mortgage, and consumer loans. We do not have any material concentrations by industry or group of industries in the loan portfolio. However, 86.1% of our gross loans is secured by real property as of September 30, 2018, compared to 84.5% as of December 31, 2017.
We have established concentration limits in the loan portfolio for commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and unsecured lending, among others. All loan types are within established limits. We use underwriting guidelines to assess the borrowers’ historical cash flow to determine debt service, and we further stress test the debt service under higher interest rate scenarios. Financial and performance covenants are used in commercial lending agreements to allow us to react to a borrower’s deteriorating financial condition, should that occur.
Commercial real estate loans include owner-occupied and non-occupied commercial real estate. We originate both fixed and adjustable rate loans. Adjustable rate loans are based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate. At September 30, 2018, approximately 53% of the commercial real estate portfolio consisted of fixed-rate loans. Our policy maximum loan-to-value, or LTV, is 70% for commercial real estate loans. At September 30, 2018, our average loan to value for commercial real estate loans was approximately 55%. Our commercial real estate loan portfolio totaled $489.8 million at September 30, 2018 compared to $420.8 million at December 31, 2017.
We are designated an SBA Preferred Lender under the SBA Preferred Lender Program. We offer mostly SBA 7(a) variable-rate loans. We generally sell the 75% guaranteed portion of the SBA loans that we originate. Our SBA loans are typically made to small-sized manufacturing, wholesale, retail, hotel/motel and service businesses for working capital needs or business expansions. SBA loans have maturities up to 25 years. Typically, non-real estate secured loans mature in less than 10 years. Collateral may also include inventory, accounts receivable and equipment, and may include personal guarantees. Our unguaranteed SBA loans collateralized by real estate are monitored by collateral type and included in our CRE Concentration Guidance.
As of September 30, 2018, our SBA portfolio totaled $132.5 million compared to $115.6 million as of December 31, 2017, an increase of $16.9 million, or 14.7%. The increase was primarily due to a $76.0 million origination of SBA loans in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, partially offset by a $61.0 million sale of SBA loans in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Commercial and industrial loans totaled $104.3 million at September 30, 2018 compared to $103.7 million at December 31, 2017. The increase resulted primarily from organic loan growth.
We originate mainly non-qualified, alternative documentation single-family home mortgage loans (“home mortgage”) primarily through broker relationships, but also through our branch network. The loan product is a five-year or seven-year hybrid adjustable rate mortgage which reprices after five years to the one-year LIBOR plus certain spreads. We originate the non-qualified single-family home mortgage loans held by us for investment. Home mortgage loans totaled $120.3 million at September 30, 2018 compared to $104.1 million at December 31, 2017, an increase of $16.2 million, or 15.6%.

As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, we serviced $330.5 million and $309.3 million respectively, of SBA loans for others. Activities for loan servicing rights for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

Loan servicing rights are included in accrued interest receivable and other assets on our consolidated balance sheets and reported net of amortization.
Allowance for loan losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Loans are charged-off against the allowance when management believes a loan balance is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Management’s methodology for estimating the allowance balance consists of several key elements, which include specific allowances on individual impaired loans and the formula driven allowances on pools of loans with similar risk characteristics. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.
The allowance for loan losses is determined on a quarterly basis and reflects management’s estimate of probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We also rely on internal and external loan review procedures to further assess individual loans and loan pools, and economic data for overall industry and geographic trends. The computation includes elements of judgment and high levels of subjectivity.
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans include loans on non-accrual status and performing restructured loans. Income from loans on non-accrual status is recognized to the extent cash is received and when the loan’s principal balance is deemed collectible. Depending on a particular loan’s circumstances, we measure impairment of a loan based upon either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is considered collateral dependent when repayment of the loan is based solely on the liquidation of the collateral. Fair value, where possible, is determined by independent appraisals, typically on an annual basis. Between appraisal periods, the fair value may be adjusted based on specific events, such as if deterioration of quality of the collateral comes to our attention as part of our problem loan monitoring process, or if discussions with the borrower lead us to believe the last appraised value no longer reflects the actual market value for the collateral. The impairment amount on a collateral-dependent loan is charged-off to the allowance if deemed not collectible and the impairment amount on a loan that is not collateral-dependent is set up as a specific reserve.
In cases where a borrower experiences financial difficulties and we make certain concessionary modifications to contractual terms, the loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring. These concessions may include a reduction of the interest rate, principal or accrued interest, extension of the maturity date or other actions intended to minimize potential losses. Loans restructured at a rate equal to or greater than that of a new loan with comparable risk at the time the loan is modified may be excluded from restructured loan disclosures in years subsequent to the restructuring if the loans are in compliance with their modified terms. A restructured loan is considered impaired despite its accrual status and a specific reserve is calculated based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. Interest income on impaired loans is accrued as earned, unless the loan is placed on non-accrual status.
The allowance for loan losses was $9.6 million at September 30, 2018 compared to $9.1 million at December 31, 2017, an increase of $411,000, or 4.5%. The increase was primarily due to the overall growth in the size of our gross loans, which grew $102.0 million, or 13.6%, to $850.0 million at September 30, 2018 from $748.0 million at December 31, 2017.
45
In determining the allowance and the related provision for loan losses, we consider three principal elements: (i) valuation allowances based upon probable losses identified during the review of impaired commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, construction and land development loans; (ii) allocations, by loan classes, on loan portfolios based on historical loan loss experience and qualitative factors; and (iii) review of the credit discounts in relationship to the valuation allowance calculated for purchased loans. Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations to record changes to the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by us.
It is the policy of management to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level adequate for risks inherent in the loan portfolio. The Federal Reserve Board and the California Department of Business Oversight also review the allowance for loan losses as an integral part of their examination process. Based on information currently available, management believes that our allowance for loan losses is adequate. However, the loan portfolio can be adversely affected if California economic conditions and the real estate market in our market area were to weaken. The effect of such events, although uncertain at this time, could result in an increase in the level of nonperforming loans and increased loan losses, which could adversely affect our future growth and profitability. No assurance of the ultimate level of credit losses can be given with any certainty.

Non-performing Loans
Loans are considered delinquent when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more. Delinquent loans may remain on accrual status between 30 days and 90 days past due. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as non-accrual loans. Typically, the accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or when, in the opinion of management, there is a reasonable doubt as to collectability in the normal course of business. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on non-accrual loans is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash is received, and the loan’s principal balance is deemed collectible. Loans are restored to accrual status when loans become well-secured and management believes full collectability of principal and interest is probable.
Real estate we acquire as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as OREO until sold, and is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. We had no OREO at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Non-performing loans include loans 90 days past due and still accruing, loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis and accruing restructured loans. Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans plus OREO. Non-performing loans were $1.2 million at September 30, 2018 compared to $1.0 million at December 31, 2017.
Classified loans were $3.0 million at September 30, 2018, an increase of $877,000 compared to $2.1 million at December 31, 2017. The increase in classified loans was primarily due to a $818,000 increase in impaired loans.

The following table sets forth the allocation of our non-performing assets among our different asset categories as of the dates indicated. Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and loans modified under troubled debt restructurings.

Deposits
We gather deposits primarily through our branch locations. We offer a variety of deposit products including demand deposits accounts, interest-bearing products, savings accounts and certificate of deposits. We put continued effort into gathering noninterest demand deposits accounts through marketing to our existing and new loan customers, customer referrals, our marketing staff and various involvement with community networks.
Total deposits at September 30, 2018 were $896.9 million, representing an increase of $123.6 million, or 16.0%, compared to $773.3 million at December 31, 2017. As of September 30, 2018, 31.9% of total deposits were comprised of noninterest-bearing demand accounts, 28.7% of interest-bearing transaction accounts and 39.4% of time deposits.
The following tables summarize our average deposit balances and weighted average rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 31, 2017:

Borrowed Funds
Other than deposits, we also utilized FHLB advances as a supplementary funding source to finance our operations. The advances from the FHLB are collateralized by residential and commercial real estate loans. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had maximum borrowing capacity from the FHLB of $340.2 million and $308.5 million, respectively. We had no borrowings from FHLB at September 30, 2018 and $25 million of advances from FHLB at December 31, 2017.
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the measure of our ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while at the same time meeting our operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs, all at a reasonable cost. We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all short-term and long-term cash requirements. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of customers, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholders.
Our liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and access to alternative sources of funds. Our liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits in correspondent banks, federal funds sold, and fair value of unpledged investment securities. Other available sources of liquidity include wholesale deposits, and additional borrowings from correspondent banks, FHLB advances, and the Federal Reserve discount window.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily met through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in our loan and investment portfolios, and increases in customer deposits. Other alternative sources of funds will supplement these primary sources to the extent necessary to meet additional liquidity requirements on either a short-term or long-term basis.
As of September 30, 2018, we had $13.5 million of unsecured federal funds lines with no amounts advanced, and as of December 31, 2017, we had $9.5 million of unsecured federal funds lines with no amounts advances. In addition, on such dates we had lines of credit from the Federal Reserve discount window of $107.7 million and $92.8 million, respectively. The Federal Reserve discount window lines were collateralized by a pool of commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans totaling $177.2 million and $156.2 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We did not have any borrowings outstanding with the Federal Reserve at September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017, and our borrowing capacity is limited only by eligible collateral.
At September 30, 2018, we had no borrowings from the FHLB. We had a $25 million FHLB advance outstanding at December 31, 2017 which was an overnight borrowing at an interest rate of 1.41%. Based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, we had $195.8 million and $170.8 million of additional borrowing availability with the FHLB as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. We also maintain relationships in the capital markets with brokers to issue certificates of deposit and money market accounts.

We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking regulators. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for “prompt corrective action” (described below), we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies. The capital amounts and classifications are subject to qualitative judgments by the federal banking regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Qualitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy required us to maintain minimum amounts and ratio of CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets, referred to as the “leverage ratio.”
In the wake of the global financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, the role of capital has become fundamentally more important, as banking regulators have concluded that the amount and quality of capital held by banking organizations was insufficient to absorb losses during periods of severely distressed economic conditions. The Dodd-Frank Act and new banking regulations promulgated by the U.S. federal banking regulators to implement the Basel III Capital Rules have established strengthened capital standards for banks and bank holding companies and require more capital to be held in the form of common stock. These provisions, which generally became applicable to us on January 1, 2015, impose meaningfully more stringent regulatory capital requirements than those applicable to us prior to that date. In addition, the Basel III Capital Rules will implement a concept known as the “capital conservation buffer.” In general, banks and bank holding companies will be required to hold a buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital equal to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets over each minimum capital ratio to avoid being subject to limits on capital distributions (e.g., dividends, stock buybacks, etc.) and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. For community banks, the capital conservation buffer requirement commenced on January 1, 2016, with a gradual phase-in. Full compliance with the capital conservation buffer will be required by January 1, 2019.
The table below also summarizes the capital requirements applicable to us and the Bank in order to be considered “well-capitalized” from a regulatory perspective, as well as our and the Bank’s capital ratios as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. We and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under the Basel III Capital Rules and were considered to be “well-capitalized” as of the dates reflected in the table below. As of September 30, 2018, the FDIC categorized us as well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework. There have been no conditions or events since September 30, 2018 that management believes would change this classification.

We believe that we will be able to meet our contractual obligations as they come due through the maintenance of adequate cash levels. We expect to maintain adequate cash levels through profitability, loan and securities repayment and maturity activity and continued deposit gathering activities. We have in place various borrowing mechanisms for both short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
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. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in our consolidated balance sheet. The contractual or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.
51
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if we deem collateral is necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. They are intended to be disbursed, subject to certain condition, upon request of the borrower.
The following table summarized commitments as of the dates presented.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads. We have identified interest rate risk as our primary source of market risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (repricing risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay home mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and LIBOR (basis risk).
Our board’s asset liability committee, or ALM, establishes broad policy limits with respect to interest rate risk. Our management’s asset liability committee, or ALCO, establishes specific operating guidelines within the parameters of the policies set by the ALM. In general, we seek to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the economic values of assets and liabilities. Our ALCO monitors the level of interest rate risk sensitivity on a quarterly basis to ensure compliance with the ALM-approved risk limits. The policy requires a periodic review of all key assumptions used, such as identifying appropriate interest rate scenarios, setting loan prepayment rates based on historical analysis, and noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposit durations based on historical analysis.
Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.
An asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on our interest-earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, thus expanding our net interest margin. Conversely, a liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on our interest-earning assets, thus compressing our net interest margin.
Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the ALCO and ALM at least quarterly. The information reported includes period-end results and identifies any policy limits exceeded, along with an assessment of the policy limit breach and the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk.
52
Evaluation of Interest Rate Risk
We use a net interest income simulation model to measure and evaluate potential changes in our net interest income. We run various hypothetical interest rate scenarios at least quarterly and compare these results against a scenario with no changes in interest rates. We use two approaches to model interest rate risk: Earnings at Risk, or EAR, and Economic Value of Equity, or EVE. Under EAR, net interest income is modeled utilizing various assumptions for assets and liabilities. EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. EVE is a period end measurement.
Our simulation model incorporates various assumptions, which we believe are reasonable but which may have a significant impact on results such as: (i) the timing of changes in interest rates; (ii) shifts or rotations in the yield curve; (iii) re-pricing characteristics for market-rate-sensitive instruments; (iv) varying loan prepayment speeds for different interest rate scenarios; and (v) the overall growth and mix of assets and liabilities. Because of limitations inherent in any approach used to measure interest rate risk, simulation results are not intended as a forecast of the actual effect of a change in market interest rates on our results but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate asset-liability management strategies and manage our interest rate risk.
Potential changes to our net interest income in hypothetical rising and declining rate scenarios calculated as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are presented in the following table. The projections assume (i) immediate, parallel shifts downward of the yield curve of 100 basis points and (ii) immediate, parallel shifts upward of the yield curve of 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points over 12 months. In the current interest rate environment, a downward shift of the yield curve of 200, 300 and 400 basis points does not provide us with meaningful results. In a downward parallel shift of the yield curve, interest rate at the short-end of the yield curve are not modeled to decline any further than 0%.

We are within board-established policy limits for the all rate scenarios. The EAR reported at September 30, 2018 projects that our earnings are expected to be sensitive to changes in interest rates over the next year. In recent periods, the amount of fixed rate assets decreased resulting in a position shift to be slightly more asset sensitive.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
The Company’s management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based on such evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
53
In the ordinary course of business, we are or may be involved in various legal or regulatory proceedings, claims, including claims related to, employment, wage-hour and labor law claims, lender liability claims, and consumer and privacy claims, some which may be styled as “class action” or representative cases. We evaluate all claims and lawsuits with respect to their potential merits, our potential defenses and counterclaims, settlement or litigation potential and the expected effect on us. The outcome of any claims or litigation, regardless of the merits, is inherently uncertain. We make a provision for a liability relating to legal matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The outcomes of our legal proceedings and other contingencies are, however, inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. The Company presently does not have any adverse pending legal actions.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should carefully consider the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on March 5, 2018 (333-223444) and declared effective by the SEC on March 27, 2018, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. There were no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed in our registration statement on Form S-1. The risk factors identified are in addition to those contained in any other cautionary statements, written or oral, which may be or otherwise addressed in connection with a forward‑looking statement or contained in any of our subsequent filings with the SEC.
