Oregon Pacific Bancorp and Subsidiary
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2006
(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oregon Pacific Bancorp (“Bancorp”), an Oregon corporation and a registered financial holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Oregon Pacific Banking Co. (the “Bank”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances. Substantially all activity of Bancorp is conducted through its banking subsidiary.

Oregon Pacific Bancorp, an Oregon Corporation and financial holding company, became the holding company of Oregon Pacific Banking Co. (collectively, the “Company”) effective January 1, 2003 through a Plan of Share Exchange approved by Bank shareholders on December 19, 2002. The Bank is a state-chartered institution authorized to provide banking services by the State of Oregon, from its headquarters in Florence, Oregon. Full-service banking products are offered to the Bank’s customers who live primarily in Lane, Douglas, and Coos counties and on the central Oregon coast. In December 2003, Bancorp formed Oregon Pacific Statutory Trust I, a wholly-owned Connecticut statutory business trust, for purposes of issuing guaranteed undivided beneficial interests in Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures. The Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and balances for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Additionally, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of results to be anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2006. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, including the notes thereto, contained in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America and industry practice. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America and industry practice have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2005 financial statements to conform to current year presentations.

For the securities exhibiting unrealized losses, that is, they currently have fair values less than amortized costs, the Bank has evaluated these securities and has determined that the decline in value is temporary and is related to the change in market interest rates since purchase. The following information was also considered in determining that the impairments are not other-than-temporary. U.S. Government agencies securities have minimal credit risk as they play a vital role in the nation’s financial markets. State and political subdivisions and corporate securities have a credit rating of at least investment grade by one of the nationally recognized rating agencies. The decline in value is not related to any company or industry-specific event and the Bank anticipates full recovery of amortized costs with respect to these securities at maturity or sooner in the event of a more favorable market interest rate environment.

It is the policy of the Bank to place loans on nonaccrual status whenever the collection of all or a part of the principal is in doubt. Loans placed on nonaccrual status may or may not be contractually past due at the time of such determination, and may or may not be secured by collateral. Loans in the amount of $115,000 and $356,000 were on nonaccrual status at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

The Bank had no loans past due 90 days or more on which it continued to accrue interest at either March 31, 2006 or December 31, 2005.


Note 4 - Earnings per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if common shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of options under stock option plans. Weighted average shares outstanding consist of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents attributable to outstanding stock options.


Note 5 - Stock-based compensation

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company’s stock option plans were accounted for under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 (Opinion 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure) (collectively SFAS 123). No stock-based employee compensation cost was recognized in the Company’s Statements of Operations through December 31, 2005, as all options granted to employees under the plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)), using the modified- prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). As of January 1, 2006, 20,205 stock options were not fully vested.

The fair value of each option grant on the date of grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on a weighted average volatility of 15.2%, expected life of options of three to five and one-half years, weighted average risk free interest rate of 4.7%, and a dividend yield of 2% grants during first quarter 2006. The fair value of options granted during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 ranged from $1.60 to $2.23. 
 
As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company’s earnings before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2006, was approximately $3,800 lower than if it had continued to be accounted for as share-based compensation under Opinion 25. As of March 31, 2006, the Company had 32,991 nonvested options outstanding and there was $32,600 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to these nonvested options. This cost is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis, over the vesting periods, through December 31, 2011.

10


On March 16, 2006 the Board of Directors of the Company modified the vesting period of all incentive stock options granted after 2002 and allowed for accelerated vesting when an employee reaches retirement age and ceases continuous service. Under SFAS 123(R), grants issued subsequent to adoption of SFAS 123(R) which are subject to such an accelerated vesting upon the recipient’s attainment of retirement age, are expensed over the shorter of the time to retirement age or the vesting schedule in accordance with the grant. Thus the vesting period can be less than the plan’s five-year vesting period depending on the age of the grantee. 

There were 13,082 options granted and 2,600 options exercised during the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The following table summarizes information about the stock options outstanding at March 31, 2006:

Note 6 - Business Combinations 

On January 03, 2006, the Bank acquired all of the assets of Coast Investment Advisors, Inc., the local Florence branch of LPL Financial Services, Inc.  As a result of the acquisition, the Bank recorded $460,000 in intangible assets, which consist of a customer list and a non-compete agreement, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the asset, both of which are 60 months. The amortization of the non-compete agreement will begin at the end of a three-year employment contract. This acquisition was consistent with the Bank’s strategy to grow the Trust and Investment Department and provided an opportunity to increase the customer base in this area.

The aggregate purchase price was $462,000, which included cash of $140,000 and an unsecured Note Payable of $322,000. Interest on the note payable is 7% and paid monthly, while principal payments are made in three equal and annual installments, with the final payment due in February 2009. No liabilities or obligations were assumed in the transaction.


Note 7 - Accounting Pronouncements
 
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, which changes the accounting for all loan servicing rights  which are recorded as the result of selling a loan where the seller undertakes an obligation to service the loan, usually in exchange for compensation. FAS 156 amends current accounting guidance by permitting the servicing right to be recorded initially at fair value and also permits the subsequent reporting of these assets at fair value. FAS 156 is effective beginning January 1, 2007. Management does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 

Item 2.      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This report contains a number of forward looking statements about our anticipated business, operations, financial performance and cash flows. Statements in this report that relate to future plans, events and circumstances are provided to describe management's intentions and expectations based on currently available information, and readers should not construe these statements as assurances or guarantees. As with any predictions, these statements are inherently difficult to make with any degree of assurance, and actual results may differ materially and adversely from management's expectations described herein. Likewise, management's plans described in this report may not come to pass because unforeseen events may force management to deviate from its expressed intentions. Forward-looking statements often can be identified by the use of predictive or prospective terms such as "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "intend," and words of similar construction or meaning. Some of the events or circumstances that may cause our actual results to deviate from management's expectations include the impact of competition and local and regional economic factors upon our customer base, our deposits and our loan portfolio; economic and regulatory limits on our ability to grow our assets and manage our business; customer acceptance of our products; interest rate fluctuations that may adversely impact our revenues and expenses; and the impact of impairment charges upon our intangible and other assets. Other factors that may adversely impact our performance are discussed in this report as well as other disclosures we make from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other federal agencies. Readers also should note that forward-looking statements expressed in this report are made as of the date of this report, and management cannot undertake to update those statements to reflect future events or circumstances.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the estimates used, including the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the recorded value of the mortgage servicing asset. Estimates are based upon historical experience, current economic conditions, and other factors that management considers reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates result in judgments regarding the carrying values of assets and liabilities when these values are not readily available from other sources as well as assessing and identifying the accounting treatments of commitments and contingencies.

12

 
The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible based upon evaluations of the collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. Management also attempts to ensure that the overall allowance appropriately reflects a margin for the imprecision in an estimation process and evaluates factors such as the trend in the loan growth and the percentage of change, the level of geographic and/or industry concentrations, competitive issues that impact the loan underwriting or structure, and economic conditions. The increase in the allowance primarily relates to loan growth since March 31, 2005. While management believes that the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio and credit commitments outstanding based on the best information available, the assessment cannot be determined with precision and may not necessarily be indicative of future losses.

The Company recognizes as assets the rights to service mortgage loans for others, known as MSRs. MSRs are capitalized based on the relative fair value of the servicing right and the mortgage loan on the date the mortgage loan is sold and amortized over the life of the loan. Utilizing assumptions about factors such as discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand, an estimate of the fair value of the Company’s capitalized MSRs is performed quarterly by management. Since valuation is determined using discounted cash flow models, the primary risk inherent in MSRs is the impact of prepayment speeds on the estimated life of the servicing revenue stream. The use of different estimates or assumptions could produce a different fair value. At March 31, 2006, the Company’s mortgage servicing asset was $811,000 and the related loan balances serviced by the Company for others totaled $98.2 million.


Overview

Oregon Pacific Bancorp ("Bancorp"), an Oregon corporation and financial bank holding company, is the holding company of Oregon Pacific Banking Co. (the "Bank") (collectively, the “Company”). The Company is headquartered in Florence, Oregon.

The Bank is an Oregon banking corporation organized under the Oregon Bank Act on December 17, 1979. The Bank is a full-service commercial bank that provides a broad range of depository and lending services to commercial enterprises, governmental entities and individuals. Full-service banking products are offered to the Bank’s customers from its four branches who live primarily in Lane, Douglas, and Coos counties and on the central Oregon coast. Additional financial services provided by the Bank include trust and asset management services and investment and brokerage services. The Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

The Company has a two-tiered corporate structure. At the holding company level the affairs of Bancorp, the sole owner of the Bank, are overseen by a Board of Directors elected by the shareholders of the Company. The business of the Bank is overseen by the Bank’s Board of Directors selected by Bancorp’s Board. Currently the respective members of the Board of Directors of the Bank and of Bancorp are identical.

The Company reported net income of $461,000, or $.21 per basic share, for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This compares to Bank income of $485,000, or $.23 per basic share, for the same three month period in the prior year. 2005 income includes an interest payment for a 2004 principal recovery of a previously charged off loan and a repayment of certain Bank costs that increased net income per share by $.07.


Financial Condition

Total assets at March 31, 2006 were $160,213,000 compared to $150,441,000 at December 31, 2005, an increase of $9,772,000 (6.1%). The increase was due primarily to increased interest-bearing deposits in banks ($4.74 million) and new loans ($1.72 million) funded by increases in demand deposits ($5.73 million) and interest-bearing demand deposits ($1.56 million).

13


March 31, 2006 stockholders’ equity was $10,638,000, an increase of $375,000 from December 31, 2005. This change resulted from consolidated net income partially offset by cash dividends paid ($85,000).

The net loan portfolio at March 31, 2006 increased $1.8 million to $119.7 million compared to $117.9 million at December 31, 2005 and increased $9.1 million from March 31, 2005 when the portfolio was $110.6 million. See Note 3 of the financial statements for a breakdown of the type of loans.

Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank at March 31, 2006 were $12.6 million compared to $11.4 million at December 31, 2005 and $12.8 million at March 31, 2005. The Bank borrowed $1.2 million during the first quarter of 2006 to match-fund a fixed rate loan. The new borrowings averaged 5.08% and the average rate on all borrowings is 4.23%. The Company also has an obligation to pay interest and, at maturity, principal on the “trust preferred securities” issued by Oregon Pacific Statutory Trust I and $322,000 from its January acquisition.

As a result of the acquisition of the local LPL Financial Services brokerage in January 2006, the Company recorded $460,000 of intangible assets. The Company had no intangible assets at December 31, 2005.


Results of Operations

Net interest income

Net interest income is the Bank’s primary source of revenue. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned from loans and the investment portfolio, and interest expense paid on customer deposits and debt. Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume and changes in rate. Volume refers to the dollar level of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Rate refers to the underlying yields on assets and costs of liabilities.

Net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was $2,050,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to $1,758,000 which excludes the one-time interest payment (discussed above) for the same period in 2005 (see Table below). The $292,000 increase was due to increases in both the volume and rates of loans partially offset by an increase in the cost of funds and a small increase in the volume of time certificates. The increase in interest income of $584,000 was primarily due to a $173,000 increase from the increase in average loans outstanding of $9,748,000 from the same period one year ago and a $408,000 increase in average rates earned resulting from the rising interest rate environment over the past few years. The effective rate on interest-bearing liabilities for the quarter was 2.69% compared to 1.77% for the same period in 2005 which reflect rising interest rates and a shift of depositors to more time certificates.

Provision for Loan Losses

A provision of $26,000 was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $170,000 in the same period in 2005. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2006 was 1.5% of gross loans, the same as December 31, 2005. Management is satisfied that the reserve is adequate for probable loan losses in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2006. Management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss is based on a number of factors including current delinquent and non-performing loans, past loan loss experience, evaluation of customers’ financial strength, and economic trends impacting areas and customers served by the Bank. The allowance is based on estimates, and actual losses may vary from those currently estimated.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income decreased $5,000 or 0.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005.

The decrease was the result of the a decrease of “other income” ($64,000) due to a recovery of Bank expenses as mentioned above in 2005 and decreased mortgage loan sales ($36,000) partially offset by an increase in Investment Department commissions subsequent to the acquisition of the brokerage in January as discussed in Note 6 ($69,000).

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $176,000 or 9.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from the same period one year ago.

Most of the increase is attributable to eight new full-time equivalent staff, three of whom were a part of the brokerage acquisition ($116,000) and resulting additional expenses for the Investment Department ($19,000).

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes at both March 31, 2006 and 2005 remained consistent with expected statutory rates adjusted for anticipated permanent differences arising primarily from nontaxable income earned on municipal security investments and timing differences associated with the tax treatment of bad debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management involves the ability to meet cash flow requirements. The Bank’s major sources of liquidity are customer deposits, calls and maturities of investment securities, the use of borrowing arrangements through the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, and net cash provided by operating activities. Sales of the Bank’s investment portfolio are another source of funds, if needed. The investment portfolio is of high quality and is highly marketable although a gain or loss would be realized if the market value of securities sold were not equal to their adjusted book value at the date of sale.
 
The Bank maintains liquidity levels adequate to fund loan commitments, investment opportunities, deposit withdrawals and other financial commitments. The Bank's liquidity position increased significantly during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as deposit growth exceeded the loan growth volume. As a result, during the quarter, the loan-to-deposit ratio loosened and fell slightly to 94% at March 31, 2006. Liquidity that is deemed to be temporary excess cash may be invested as interest-earning deposits with the FHLB or time certificates at other financial institutions increased during the quarter. As of March 31, 2006, the Bank had $10.7 million in such funds compared to $5.9 million at December 31, 2005. Management believes its liquidity planning will adequately provide the funds necessary to enable the Bank to fund loan commitments and meet customer withdrawals of deposits in the normal course of business.
 
For purposes of determining a bank’s deposit insurance assessment, the FDIC has issued regulations that define a “well capitalized” bank as one with a leverage ratio of 5% or more and a total risk-based ratio of 10% or more. At March 31, 2006, the Bank’s leverage and total risk-based ratios were 9.30% and 12.34% respectively, which exceed the well-capitalized threshold. 
 
 
Item 3.     Quantitive and Qualitive Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Bank’s market risk arises principally from interest rate risk in its lending, deposit taking, and borrowing activities. A sudden and substantial increase in interest rates could adversely impact the Company’s earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis.

Management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. Although the Bank manages other risks, such as credit quality and liquidity risk, in the normal course of business, management considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk which could have the largest material effect on the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.

Through the Bank’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of senior management, the Bank monitors the level and general mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, with special attention to those assets and liabilities which are rate-sensitive. The primary objective of ALCO is managing the Company’s assets and liabilities in a manner that balances profitability, interest rate risk, and various other risks including liquidity.  ALCO operates under policies and within risk limits prescribed by, reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors. The Bank’s strategy has included the funding of certain fixed rate loans with medium term borrowed funds in order to mitigate a margin squeeze should interest rates rise. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s market risk exposure since December 31, 2005.


Item 4.     Controls and Procedures

(a)
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2006. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer each concludes that as of March 31, 2006, the Company maintained effective disclosure controls and procedures in all material respects, including those to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted with the SEC is recorded, processed, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decision regarding required disclosure.

(b)
Changes in Internal Controls: In the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Company did not make any significant changes in, nor take any corrective actions regarding, its internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls.

Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls. Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) transactions are properly authorized; (2) assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of financial statement in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. The Company’s management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
