FINANCIAL CORPORATION
Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(Dollars
in thousands, except per share amounts)
Note 1 – Basis of
Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by Pacific Financial Corporation ("Pacific" or the "Company") in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for interim financial information and with instructions to
Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the six months ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative
of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2010. Certain
information and footnote disclosures included in the Company's consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, have been
condensed or omitted from this report. Accordingly, these statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2009.
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Certain
prior year amounts for other real estate owned operating costs, and earnings on
bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) have been reclassified to their own financial
statement line item to conform to the 2010 presentation with no change to net
income or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.
We have
evaluated subsequent events through the date of this filing. We do not believe
there are any material subsequent events other than those disclosed that require
disclosure.

At June
30, 2010, there were 12 investment securities in an unrealized loss position, of
which 6 were in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more. The unrealized
losses on these securities were caused by changes in interest rates and market
illiquidity, causing a decline in the fair value subsequent to their purchase.
Management monitors published credit ratings on these securities for adverse
changes, and, for MBS, monitors expected future cash flows to determine whether
any loss in principal is anticipated. The Company has evaluated the securities
shown above and anticipates full recovery of amortized cost with respect to
these securities at maturity or sooner. Based on management’s evaluation and
because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is
not more likely than not that it will have to sell the securities before
recovery of cost basis, the Company does not consider these investments to be
other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010.
9
Gross
gains realized on sales of securities were $513 and $303 and gross losses
realized were $111 and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009,
respectively.
The
Company did not engage in originating subprime mortgage loans, and it does not
believe that it has exposure to subprime mortgage loans or subprime mortgage
backed securities. Additionally, the Company does not have any investment in or
exposure to collateralized debt obligations or structured investment
vehicles.

Loans on
which the accrual of interest has been discontinued were $10,596 and $15,647 at
June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Interest income foregone on
non-accrual loans was $1,921 and $1,602 during the six months ended June 30,
2010 and 2009, respectively.
At June
30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company’s recorded investment in certain
loans that were considered to be impaired was $14,619 and $25,738, respectively.
At June 30, 2010, $809 of these impaired loans had a specific related valuation
allowance of $407, while $13,810 did not require a specific valuation allowance.
At December 31, 2009, $2,962 of these impaired loans had a specific valuation
allowance of $638, while $22,776 did not require a specific valuation allowance.
The balance of the allowance for loan losses in excess of these specific
reserves is available to absorb the probable losses, existing at that date, from
all other loans in the portfolio. The average investment in impaired loans was
$21,695 and $28,725 during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and the year ended
December 31, 2009, respectively. The related amount of interest income
recognized on a cash basis for loans that were impaired was $382 and $237 during
the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There were no loans
past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at June 30, 2010. Loans
past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at December 31, 2009 were
$547 and were made up entirely of loans fully guaranteed by United States
government agencies.
Note
5 – Stock Based Compensation
The
Company’s 2000 stock incentive plan provides for granting incentive stock
options, as defined under current tax laws, to key personnel. The plan also
provides for non-qualified stock options and other types of stock based awards.
The plan authorizes the issuance of up to a total of 1,100,000 shares (131,530
shares are available for grant at June 30, 2010). Under the plan, options either
become exercisable ratably over five years or vest fully five years from the
date of grant. Under the plan, the Company may grant up to 150,000 options for
its common stock to a single individual in a calendar year.
10
The fair
value of stock options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model based on assumptions noted in the following table. Expected
volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The
expected term of stock options granted is based on the simplified method, which
is the simple average between contractual term and vesting period. The risk-free
rate is based on the expected term of stock options and the applicable U.S.
Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant.

The
Company accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with GAAP, which
requires measurement of compensation cost for all stock-based awards based on
the grant date fair value and recognition of compensation cost over the service
period of stock-based awards. Stock-based compensation expense during the six
months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $23 and $26 ($15 and $17 net of tax),
respectively. Future compensation expense for unvested awards outstanding as of
June 30, 2010 is estimated to be $76 recognized over a weighted average period
of 1.8 years. There were no options exercised during the six months ended June
30, 2010 and 2009.
Note
6 – Commitments and Contingencies
The Bank
is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal
course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial
instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit,
and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount
recognized on the consolidated balance sheets.
The
Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party
to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The
Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Bank’s
off-balance sheet commitments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 is as
follows:

Commitments
to extend credit
|
$ | 72,167 | $ | 71,435 | ||||
Standby
letters of credit
|
1,332 | 1,164 |
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. Many of the commitments
may expire without being drawn upon; therefore total commitment amounts do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each
customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral
obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s
credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include
accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate,
and income-producing commercial properties.
12
Standby
letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee
the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in
issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending
loan facilities to customers.
In
connection with certain loans held for sale, the Bank typically makes
representations and warranties about the underlying loans conforming to
specified guidelines. If the underlying loans do not conform to the
specifications, the Bank may have an obligation to repurchase the loans or
indemnify the purchaser against loss. The Bank believes that the potential for
loss under these arrangements is remote. Accordingly, no contingent liability is
recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
The
Company is currently not party to any material pending litigation. However,
because of the nature of its activities, the Company is subject to various
pending and threatened legal actions which may arise in the ordinary course of
business. In the opinion of management, liabilities arising from these claims,
if any, will not have a material effect on the results of operations or
financial condition of the Company.
Note
7 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued
Accounting Standards Update (“Update”) No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value
Measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on transfers into and
out of Level 1 and 2 measurements of the fair value hierarchy and requires
separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating
to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures
relating to the level of disaggregation and inputs and valuation techniques used
to measure fair value. It is effective for the interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity,
which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The
adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
In July
2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality
of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The
guidance will require the Company to disclose a greater level of disaggregated
information about the credit quality of its loans and the related allowance for
credit losses. This ASU will also require the Company to disclose additional
information related to credit quality indicators, past due information, and
information related to loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring. The
disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and
annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures
about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim
and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The
Company is currently evaluating the requirements of this guidance, but does not
expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
Note
8 – Fair Value Measurements
Effective
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted accounting guidance on fair value
measurements, which established a hierarchy for measuring fair value that is
intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the
fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:
13
Level 1 –
Valuations based on quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical
assets or liabilities; also includes certain corporate debt securities and
mutual funds actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
Level 2 –
Valuations of assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker
markets. Valuations include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities
traded in the same market; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active; and model –derived valuations whose inputs are
observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Valuations may be
obtained from, or corroborated by, third-party pricing services. This category
generally includes certain U.S. Government, agency and non-agency securities,
state and municipal securities, mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt
securities, and residential mortgage loans held for sale.
Level 3 –
Valuation based on unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity
for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models,
discounted cash flow methodologies, yield curves and similar techniques, as well
as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant
management judgment or estimation. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain
assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such
assets or liabilities, but in all cases are corroborated by external data, which
may include third-party pricing services.
The
following table presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

The
Company uses a third party pricing service to assist the Company in determining
the fair value of the investment portfolio. The following table presents a
reconciliation of assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the six months ended June
30, 2010. There were no transfers of assets in to or out of Level 3 for the six
months ended June 30, 2010.

Certain
assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis after
initial recognition such as loans measured for impairment and other real estate
owned (“OREO”). The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of
each such class of financial instrument:
Loans held for sale – Loans
held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Loans held for
sale are measured at fair value based on a discounted cash flow calculation
using interest rates currently available on similar loans. The fair value was
determined based on an aggregated loan basis. When a loan is sold, the gain is
recognized in the consolidated statement of income as the proceeds less the book
value of the loan including unamortized fees and capitalized direct
costs.
Impaired loans – A loan is
considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is
probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (both
interest and principal) according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows or by the net realizable value of the collateral if the loan
is collateral dependent.
Other real estate owned – OREO
is initially recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or fair
value of the property less estimated costs to sell. This amount becomes the
property’s new basis. Management considers third party appraisals in determining
the fair value of particular properties. Any write-downs based on the property
fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of acquisition are charged
to the allowance for credit losses. Management periodically reviews OREO in an
effort to ensure the property is carried at the lower of its new basis or fair
value, net of estimated costs to sell. Any additional write-downs based on
re-evaluation of the property fair value are charged to non-interest
expense.

following table presents the Company’s financial assets that were held at the

Other
real estate owned with a carrying amount of $3,832 was acquired during the six
months ended June 30, 2010. Upon foreclosure, these assets were written down
$233 to their fair value, less estimated costs to sell, which was charged to the
allowance for credit losses during the period.
The
following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the
fair values of financial instruments disclosed in these consolidated financial
statements:
Cash,
Interest Bearing Deposits at Other Financial Institutions, and Federal Funds
Sold
The
carrying amounts of cash, interest bearing deposits at other financial
institutions, and federal funds sold approximate their fair value.
Securities
Available for Sale and Held to Maturity
Fair
values for securities are based on quoted market prices.
Loans,
net and Loans Held for Sale
The fair
value of loans is estimated based on comparable market statistics for loans with
similar credit ratings. An additional liquidity discount is also incorporated to
more closely align the fair value with observed market prices. Fair values of
loans held for sale are based on a discounted cash flow calculation using
interest rates currently available on similar loans. The fair value was based on
an aggregate loan basis.
DepositsThe fair value of
deposits with no stated maturity date is included at the amount payable on
demand. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a
discounted cash flow calculation based on interest rates currently offered on
similar certificates.
Short-Term
Borrowings
The fair
values of the Company’s short-term borrowings are estimated using discounted
cash flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for
similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Long-Term
Borrowings
The fair
values of the Company’s long-term borrowings is estimated using discounted cash
flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar
types of borrowing arrangements.
Secured
borrowings
For
variable rate secured borrowings that reprice frequently and have no significant
change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
Junior
Subordinated Debentures
The fair
value of the junior subordinated debentures and trust preferred securities is
estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on interest rates currently
available for junior subordinated debentures.
Off-Balance-Sheet
Instruments
The fair
value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit was
estimated using the rates currently charged to enter into similar agreements,
taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present
creditworthiness of the customers. Since the majority of the Company’s
off-balance-sheet instruments consist of non-fee producing, variable-rate
commitments, the Company has determined they do not have a material fair
value.

Note 9 – Goodwill
The
majority of goodwill and intangibles generally arise from business combinations
accounted for under the purchase method. Goodwill and other
intangibles deemed to have indefinite lives generated from purchase business
combinations are not subject to amortization and are instead tested for
impairment no less than annually. The Company has one reporting unit,
the Bank, for purposes of computing goodwill.
During
the second quarter of 2010, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment
test to determine whether an impairment of its goodwill asset exists. The
goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process. The first step
is a comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. If the
reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, the Company would
be required to progress to the second step. In the second step the Company
calculates the implied fair value of its reporting unit. The GAAP standards with
respect to goodwill require that the Company compare the implied fair value of
goodwill to the carrying amount of goodwill on the Company’s balance
sheet. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is greater than the
implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss must be recognized in an
amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is
determined in the same manner as goodwill recognized in a business
combination. The estimated fair value of the Company is allocated to
all of the Company’s individual assets and liabilities, including any
unrecognized identifiable intangible assets, as if the Company had been acquired
in a business combination and the estimated fair value of the Company is the
price paid to acquire it. The allocation process is performed only for purposes
of determining the amount of goodwill impairment, as no assets or liabilities
are written up or down, nor are any additional unrecognized identifiable
intangible assets recorded as a part of this process.
The
results of the Company’s step one test indicated that the reporting unit’s fair
value was less than its carrying value, requiring the Company to perform step
two of the goodwill impairment analysis. As of the date of this filing, we have
not completed this step two analysis due to the complexities involved in
determining the implied fair value of the goodwill for the reporting unit.
However, based on work performed to date, we do not believe that an impairment
loss is probable. We expect to finalize our goodwill impairment analysis during
the third quarter of 2010 and the results thereof will be disclosed in the third
quarter financial statements. No assurance can be given that the Company will
not record an impairment loss on goodwill in the future. Valuation
methodologies and material assumptions utilized are described in greater detail
under “Goodwill Valuation” in the next section titled Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Financial
Summary
The
following are significant trends reflected in the Company’s results of
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and financial
condition as of that date:
|
·
|
The
Company reported its second consecutive quarter of profitability with net
income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 of $503,000 and
$1,137,000, respectively, representing increases of $2,768,000 and
$3,716,000, compared to net losses of $2,265,000 and $2,579,000 for the
same periods in 2009. The increase was primarily related to an improvement
in net interest margin and a decrease in provision for credit
losses.
|
|
·
|
Return
on average assets and return on average equity were 0.35% and 3.92%,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to (0.79%)
and (10.31%), respectively, for the same periods in
2009.
|
|
·
|
Net
interest income increased $530,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2010 to $5,680,000 compared to the same period of the prior year. Net
interest income increased $764,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010
to $11,382,000 compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase
is primarily the result of decreasing funding costs. Net interest margin
improved to 3.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 3.58%
one year ago.
|
19
|
·
|
The
Bank remains well capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of
14.31% at June 30, 2010, compared to 13.07% at December 31,
2009.
|
|
·
|
Total
assets were $640,451,000 at June 30, 2010, a decrease of $28,175,000, or
4.21%, over year-end 2009. Reduction in construction and land development
loans as well as decreases in interest bearing deposits in banks and
investments, which were used to fund brokered deposit run-off were the
primary contributors to the overall asset
decline.
|
|
·
|
Non-performing
assets (“NPAs”) decreased during the quarter and totaled $17,531,000 at
June 30, 2010, which represents 2.74% of total assets, and is a decrease
from $22,944,000 at March 31, 2010 and a decrease from June 30, 2009 when
NPAs were $29,934,000. The current amount of NPAs is at the lowest level
in two years.
|
|
·
|
Provision
for credit losses decreased to $1,200,000 and $2,000,000 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to $3,587,000 and
$5,374,000 for the same periods one year ago. The allowance for credit
losses increased to 2.33% of total loans (including loans held for sale)
compared to 2.24% at year-end 2009.
|
|
·
|
The
Company continues to be successful in reducing overall exposure to
construction, land acquisition and other land loans. This segment of the
portfolio, totaling $56.2 million at June 30, 2010, accounts for
approximately 11.7% of the total loan portfolio (including loans held for
sale), as opposed to $91.6 million and 18.5% one year
ago.
|
|
·
|
Total
deposits decreased $28,880,000, or 5.09%, for the six months ended June
30, 2010, compared to December 31, 2009. Due to excess liquidity,
management’s strategy was to reduce higher cost time deposits, including
brokered deposits, in order to improve the cost of funds and net interest
margin. The Company’s liquidity ratio of approximately 37% at June 30,
2010 remains strong and translates into over $240 million in available
funding to meet loan and deposit
needs.
|
Results
of Operations
Net
income (loss).
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, net income was $503,000 and
$1,137,000, respectively, compared to a net loss of $(2,265,000) and
$(2,579,000) for the same periods in 2009. The increase in net income for the
three and six month period was primarily related to an increase in net interest
income and decreases in the provision for credit losses and non-interest
expense.
Net
interest income.
Net interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 increased
$530,000 and $764,000, or 10.29% and 7.20%, respectively, compared to the same
periods in 2009. See the table below and the accompanying discussion for further
information on interest income and expense. The net interest margin (net
interest income divided by average earning assets) increased to 3.89% for the
six months ended June 30, 2010 from 3.58% for the same period last year. The
increase in net interest margin is due to an improvement in the average cost of
funds to 1.70% at June 30, 2010 from 2.23% one year ago, that was only partially
offset by a decline in the Company’s average yield earned on assets from 5.69%
for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to 5.51% for the current six month
period. In addition, decreasing levels of nonperforming loans placed on
non-accrual status have also positively affected our net interest
margin.
20
The
Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve heavily influences
market interest rates, including deposit and loan rates offered by many
financial institutions. As a bank holding company, we derive the greatest
portion of our income from net interest income. Approximately 78% of the
Company’s loan portfolio is tied to short-term rates, and therefore, re-price
immediately when interest rate changes occur. The Company’s funding sources also
re-price when rates change, however, there is a meaningful lag in the timing of
the re-pricing of deposits as compared to loans and the benefits of declining
rates paid decrease as rates approach zero.
The
following table sets forth information with regard to average balances of
interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and the resultant
yields or cost, net interest income, and the net interest margin on a tax
equivalent basis. Loans held for sale and non-accrual loans are included in
total loans.

Interest income on loans includes loan fees of $296 and $445 in 2010 and 2009,
respectively.
21
Interest
and dividend income on a tax equivalent basis for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2010 decreased $435,000 and $760,000, or 5.18% and 4.51%, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to the
decline in income earned on our loan portfolio as a result of lower average
balances outstanding. Loans averaged $490.9 million with an average yield of
5.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to average loans of
$506.0 million with an average yield of 5.97% for the same period in 2009.
Interest and dividend income on investment securities on a tax equivalent basis
for the six months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $265,000, or 15.27%, compared
to the same period in 2009. The decrease was attributable to the reduction in
rates earned on adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities and the maturity and
sale of higher yielding securities that cannot be replaced in the current low
rate environment.
Average
interest earning balances with banks for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were
$37.5 million with an average yield of 0.34% compared to $25.7 million with an
average yield of 0.22% for the same period in 2009. The increase in average
interest earning balances with banks is mostly due to the increase in cash
balances resulting from deposit growth during the later part of 2009 and the
sales of investment securities in 2010.
Interest
expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $968,000 and
$1,556,000, or 31.80% and 26.55%, respectively, compared to the same periods in
2009. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in rates paid on time
certificates of deposits. Average interest-bearing deposit balances for the six
months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $467.5 million and $468.4 million,
respectively, with an average cost of 1.53% and 2.07%, respectively. Due to
regulatory rate restrictions on troubled institutions within our market area,
the Company has seen local competitive rates decline steadily in 2010,
particularly on time deposits.
Average
borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $39.6 million with an
average cost of 3.72% compared to $57.6 million with an average cost of 3.54%
for the same period in 2009. The decrease in average borrowing balances
outstanding is primarily due to the pay-off of $6.4 million in average
short-term borrowings and $11.2 million in average long-term borrowings since
June 30, 2009. The pay down in borrowings was funded by growth in lower cost
demand, money market and savings accounts.
Provision
and allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit
losses reflects management's current estimate of the amount required to absorb
probable losses on loans in its loan portfolio based on factors present as of
the end of the period. Loans deemed uncollectible are charged against and
reduce the allowance. Periodically, a provision for credit losses is charged to
current expense. This provision acts to replenish the allowance for credit
losses in order to maintain the allowance at a level that management deems
adequate.
Periodic
provisions for credit losses are made to maintain the allowance for credit
losses at a level considered appropriate by management. The provisions are based
on an analysis of various factors including historical loss experience based on
volumes and types of loans, volumes and trends in delinquencies and non-accrual
loans, trends in portfolio volume, results of internal and independent external
credit reviews, and anticipated economic conditions. For additional information,
please see the discussion under the heading “Critical Accounting Policy” in Item
7 of our 2009 10-K.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, provision for credit losses
totaled $1,200,000 and $2,000,000, compared to $3,587,000 and $5,374,000 for the
same periods in 2009. The decrease in provision for credit losses in the current
year is the result of decreases in non-performing loans outstanding from
$18,949,000 at June 30, 2009 compared to $10,596,000 at June 30, 2010 and a
decrease in charged off loans.
22
Estimated
loss factors used in the allowance for credit loss analysis are established
based in part on historic charge-off data by loan category and economic
conditions. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the loss factors used
in the allowance for credit losses were updated specifically on home equity
lines of credit by 0.50% from 0.25% to 0.75% based upon increased charge-offs in
this category within the last twelve to eighteen months.
While
credit quality has been problematic due to the prolonged downturn in the economy
and unfavorable conditions in the residential real estate market, the Company
believes that non-performing assets peaked during the second quarter of 2009 and
have improved over the last four quarters. Credit quality indicators for the
current and trailing 4 quarters are shown below:

This represents 2.1% of total loans (including loans held for sale), compared to
2.5% at March 31, 2010, and 3.3% at December 31, 2009 and 4.3% at June 30, 2009.
Past due loans are considered a leading indicator for future problem
loans.
For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2010, net charge-offs were $1,783,000 and
$1,848,000 compared to $1,424,000 and $2,794,000 for the same periods in 2009.
Net charge-offs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 were $6,475,000.
Net charge-offs continue to be centered in the residential construction and land
development portfolios, which accounted for approximately $1,425,000 or 77%, of
total net charge-offs for the year. The ratio of net charge-offs to average
loans outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was 0.38% and
0.55%, respectively.
At June
30, 2010, the allowance for credit losses was $11,244,000 compared to
$11,092,000 at December 31, 2009, and $10,203,000 at June 30, 2009. The
increase from June 30, 2009 is attributable to additional provision for credit
losses arising out of increases in loan loss rates on land development and
residential construction categories, particularly in the second half of 2009,
and is reflective of the unfavorable economic conditions in our markets. These
categories have experienced the most deterioration in credit quality over the
last 18 months and remain the highest risk in the portfolio based on current
real estate market conditions. The increase in 2010 is due to provision for
credit losses of $2,000,000 which exceeded net charge-offs of $1,848,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2010. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to
total loans outstanding (including loans held for sale) was 2.33%, 2.24% and
2.06%, at June 30, 2010, December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009,
respectively.
23
The
Company’s loan portfolio includes a significant portion of government guaranteed
loans which are fully guaranteed by the United States Government. Government
guaranteed loans were $46,330,000, $50,548,000, and $43,495,000 at June 30,
2010, December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively. The ratio of allowance
for credit losses to total loans outstanding excluding the government guaranteed
loans was 2.58%, 2.50%, and 2.25%, respectively.
There is
no precise method of predicting specific credit losses or amounts that
ultimately may be charged off. The determination that a loan may become
uncollectible, in whole or in part, is a matter of significant management
judgment. Similarly, the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is a
matter of judgment that requires consideration of many factors, including (a)
economic conditions and the effect on particular industries and specific
borrowers; (b) a review of borrowers' financial data, together with
industry data, the competitive situation, the borrowers' management capabilities
and other factors; (c) a continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio,
including monitoring by lending officers and staff credit personnel of all loans
which are identified as being of less than acceptable quality; (d) an
in-depth review, at a minimum of quarterly or more frequently as considered
necessary, of all loans judged to present a possibility of loss (if, as a result
of such monthly analysis, the loan is judged to be not fully collectible, the
carrying value of the loan is reduced to that portion considered collectible);
and (e) an evaluation of the underlying collateral for secured lending,
including the use of independent appraisals of real estate properties securing
loans. An analysis of the adequacy of the allowance is conducted by management
quarterly and is reviewed by the board of directors. Based on this analysis and
applicable accounting standards, management considers the allowance for credit
losses to be adequate at June 30, 2010.
Non-performing
assets and other real estate owned. Non-performing assets
totaled $17,531,000 at June 30, 2010. This represents 2.74% of total assets,
compared to $22,859,000, or 3.42%, at December 31, 2009, and $29,934,000,
or 4.47%, at June 30, 2009. Construction and land development loans, including
related OREO balances, continue to be the primary component of non-performing
assets, representing $9,445,000, or 53.9%, of non-performing assets. There were
no loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at June 30, 2010.
Loans past due ninety days or more and still accruing interest of $547,000 and
$1,778,000 at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, respectively, were made up
almost entirely of loans that were fully guaranteed by the United States
government agencies. The following table presents information related to the
Company’s non-performing assets:

Non-performing
loans decreased $5,598,000, or 34.6%, from the balance at year-end 2009 due to
transfers to OREO upon foreclosure. The decrease in non-performing loans was
mostly in the construction and land development and commercial real estate
categories. The transfer of loans to OREO was offset by sales of OREO during
2010, resulting in an overall decrease in non-performing assets. While
non-performing assets are improving, the level of non-performing assets is still
considered elevated by historical standards and reflects the continued weakness
in the real estate market. The Company continues to aggressively monitor and
identify non-performing assets and take action based upon available information.
The Company will continue to reevaluate non-performing assets over the coming
months as market conditions change. Currently, it is our practice to obtain new
appraisals on non-performing collateral dependent loans and/or OREO every six to
nine months. Based upon the appraisal review for non-performing loans, the
Company will record the loan at the lower of cost or market (less costs to sell)
by recording a charge-off to the allowance for credit losses or by designating a
specific reserve per accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. Generally, the Company will record the charge-off rather than designate
a specific reserve. As a result, the carrying amount of
non-performing loans may not exceed the estimated value of the underlying
collateral. This process enables the Company to update its reserve
for non-performing loans within the allowance for credit losses.
Other
real estate owned at June 30, 2010 totaled $6,536,000 and is made up as follows:
nine land or land development properties totaling $1,755,000, two residential
construction properties totaling $1,600,000, four commercial real estate
properties totaling $2,875,000, and one residential single family residence
valued at $306,000. The balances are recorded at the estimated net realizable
value of the real estate less selling costs. During the six months June 30,
2010, the Company sold eight properties totaling $3,237,000, which was offset by
the addition of ten new properties totaling $3,599,000.
Non-interest
income and expense. Non-interest income for the
three months ended June 30, 2010 increased $202,000, or 9.0%, compared to the
same period in 2009. The increase is mostly attributable to increases in
services charge income, gain on sales of OREO and investments, which was
partially offset by a decrease in gain on sales of loans. Non-interest income
for the six months ended June 30, 2010 decreased $343,000, or 7.6%, compared to
the same period in 2009. Gain on sales of loans, the largest component of
non-interest income, totaled $1,105,000 and $1,382,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and $1,849,000 and $2,577,000, for the six months
ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decrease for the three and six
month period is due to a decline in mortgage refinancing activity compared to
2009 when a low rate environment, government incentive programs and tax credits
resulted in unprecedented new mortgage and mortgage refinance activity.
Origination of loans held for sale were $84,957,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2010, compared to $162,089,000 for the same period in 2009. Management
expects gain on sale of loans to continue to be less than 2009 due to the
expiration of many of the government incentive programs.
25
Services
charges on deposits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 increased
$109,000, or 26.9%, and $52,000, or 6.3%, respectively, compared to the same
periods in 2009. The increase is primarily the result of an automated overdraft
privilege program that was implemented on April 1, 2010.
The Bank
recorded gains on sale of securities available-for-sale of $173,000 and
$402,000, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively,
compared to $0 and $303,000 for the same periods in 2009. Gain on sale of OREO
totaled $229,000 and $254,000 during the three and six months ended June 30,
2010, respectively, compared to zero for the same periods in the prior
year.
Total
non-interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 decreased
$1,623,000 and $2,163,000 compared to the same periods in 2009. The decrease was
largely due to a decline in OREO write-downs which totaled $343,000 and $491,000
for the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to
$1,734,000 and $2,517,000 for the same periods in 2009, which was partially
offset by an increase in OREO operating costs and FDIC assessments. OREO
operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $259,000 compared
to $147,000 one year ago. FDIC and State assessment expense for the six months
ended June 30, 2010 totaled $711,000 compared to $623,000 for the same period in
the prior year.
Salaries
and employee benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010,
decreased $191,000 and $414,000, or 5.5% and 6.0%, respectively, compared to the
same periods in 2009. The decrease is largely due to a reduction in commissions
paid on mortgage loans sold due to a decline in the volume of loans sold in the
secondary market. Additionally, the prior year amount included severance paid in
connection with a workforce reduction in January 2009. Full time equivalent
employees at June 30, 2010 were 216 compared to 218 at December 31,
2009.
Income
taxes. The
federal income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and
2009 was $(74,000) and $(2,048,000), and $(158,000) and $(2,400,000),
respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30,
2010 was (17.3)% and (16.1)%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from
the statutory rate of 34.4% and has exhibited a declining trend over the past
two years. During 2010 and 2009, the Company's tax exempt income represented an
increasing share of income as investments in municipal securities and loans,
income earned on BOLI, and tax credits received on investments in low income
housing partnerships remained at historical levels, while other earnings
declined sharply.
Financial
Condition
Assets.
Total assets were $640,451,000 at June 30, 2010, a decrease of $28,175,000, or
4.21%, over year-end 2009. Decreases in federal funds sold, investments
available-for-sale and loans were the primary contributors to overall asset
decline.
Investments. The investment
portfolio provides the Company with an income alternative to loans. The
Company’s investment portfolio at June 30, 2010 was $48,839,000 compared to
$61,126,000 at the end of 2009, a decrease of $12,287,000, or 20.10%. During
2010, the Company sold $15.3 million in securities for a gain of $402,000 to
help offset OREO costs. The proceeds from sales of investment securities were
mostly reinvested in interest bearing deposits with banks which were used to
fund the paydown of liabilities. Additionally, during 2010, the Company
transferred a $5 million investment in a money market mutual fund to interest
bearing deposits in banks in order to improve the rate of return on short-term
cash.
26
Loans. Total loans, including loans
held for sale, were $481,830,000 at June 30, 2010, a decrease of $12,805,000, or
2.59%, compared to December 31, 2009. The reduction in total loans was
driven primarily by a decrease in construction and land development loans of
$8,566,000 through a combination of loan payoffs and pay-downs, coupled with the
sale of $5,019,000 in government guaranteed loans for a gain of $210,000. The
reduction in the construction and land development loans is a reflection of
management's continued strategy to shrink the loan portfolio in this category
and also in part due to the significant weakness in the residential housing
market in our market areas. The decrease in construction and land development
loans was partially offset by an increase in residential 1-4 family real estate
loans. Loan detail by category, including loans held for sale, as of June 30,
2010 and December 31, 2009 follows (in thousands):

Interest
and fees earned on our loan portfolio is our primary source of revenue. Gross
loans represented 75% of total assets as of June 30, 2010, compared to 74% at
December 31, 2009. The majority of the Company’s loan portfolio is comprised of
commercial and industrial loans and real estate loans. The commercial and
industrial loans are a diverse group of loans to small, medium, and large
businesses for purposes ranging from working capital needs to term financing of
equipment.
The
commercial real estate loan category constitutes 42% of our loan portfolio and
generally consists of a wide cross-section of retail, small office, warehouse,
and industrial type properties. Loan to value ratios for the Company’s
commercial real estate loans at origination generally do not exceed 75% and debt
service ratios are generally 125% or better. While we have significant balances
within this lending category, we believe that our lending policies and
underwriting standards are sufficient to reduce risk even in a downturn in the
commercial real estate market. Additionally, this is a sector in which we have
significant long-term management experience.
We remain
aggressive in managing our construction loan portfolio and continue to be
successful at reducing our overall exposure in the residential construction and
land development segments. While these segments have historically played a
significant role in our loan portfolio, balances are declining. Construction,
land development and other land loans represent 11.7% and 13.1%, respectively,
of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. While we believe
both of these segments will remain challenged during 2010, we believe we have
appropriate risk management strategies in place to manage through the current
economic cycle.
27
The Bank
is not engaging in new land acquisition and development financing. Limited
residential speculative construction financing is provided for a very select and
small group of borrowers, which is designed to facilitate exit from the related
loans. It was the Company’s strategic objective to reduce concentrations in land
and residential construction and total commercial real estate below the
regulatory hurdles of 100% and 300% of risk based capital, respectively, which
was completed in the first quarter of 2010. As of June 30, 2010, concentration
in commercial real estate as a percentage of risk-based capital stood at 243%
and concentration in land and residential construction as a percentage of risk
based capital was 72%.
Deposits. Total deposits were
$538,815,000 at June 30, 2010, a decrease of $28,880,000 or 5.09%, compared to
December 31, 2009. Deposit detail by category as of June 30, 2010 and

During
2009, the Company increased brokered deposits to replace maturing public funds
totaling $21,978,000 that became less attractive due to regulatory pledging
requirements. Subsequently, the Company experienced successful growth in retail
deposits in market. As a result of this growth and the excess liquidity position
at year-end 2009, the Company planned to roll off brokered deposits as they came
due, of which $15 million matured in 2010 to date. Remaining maturities are as
follows: 2010 - $22,706,000; and 2011 - $25,103,000.
Interest
bearing demand deposits increased $10,398,000, or 11.3%, with corresponding
decreases in non-interest bearing demand of $4,330,000, or 5.0%, in money market
accounts of $3,654,000, or 4.2%, and in savings accounts of $1,818,000, or 3.6%,
due to the continued shift by customers into NOW accounts in order to
participate in the Transaction Account Guaranty Program.
It is our
strategic goal to grow deposits through the quality and breadth of our branch
network, increased brand awareness, superior sales practices and competitive
rates. Competitive pressures from banks in our market areas with strained
liquidity positions or public regulatory enforcement actions may slow our
deposit growth. In addition, the slowing economy and public fears from recent
bank failures could also impact our ability to grow deposits, as may the
eventual termination of government programs expanding deposit insurance on
certain accounts. In the long-term we anticipate continued growth in our core
deposits through both the addition of new customers and our current client base.
We have established and expanded a branch system to serve our consumer and
business depositors. In addition, management’s strategy for funding asset growth
is to make use of brokered and other wholesale deposits on an as-needed
basis.
28
Liquidity. We believe adequate
liquidity continues to be available to accommodate fluctuations in deposit
levels, fund operations, provide for customer credit needs, and meet obligations
and commitments on a timely basis. The Bank’s primary sources of funds are
customer deposits, maturities of investment securities, loan sales, loan
repayments, net income, and other borrowings. When necessary, liquidity can be
increased by taking advances from credit available to the Bank. The Bank
believes it has a strong liquidity position at June 30, 2010, with $50.9 million
in cash and interest bearing deposits with banks. In addition the Bank has other
sources of liquidity currently totaling $189 million. The Bank maintains credit
facilities with correspondent banks totaling $11,750,000, of which none was used
as of June 30, 2010. In addition, the Bank has a credit line with the Federal
Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Seattle for up to 20% of assets, of which $24,000,000
was used at June 30, 2010. Based on current pledged collateral, the Bank had
$101 million of available borrowing capacity on its line at the FHLB. The Bank
also has a borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank under the
Borrower-in-Custody program. Under this program, the Bank has an available
credit facility of $31 million, subject to pledged collateral. For its funds,
the Company relies on dividends from the Bank and, historically, proceeds from
the issuance of trust preferred securities, both of which are used for various
corporate purposes, including dividends.
At June
30, 2010, two wholly-owned subsidiary grantor trusts established by the Company
had issued and outstanding $13,403,000 of trust preferred securities. During
2009, the Company elected to exercise the right to defer interest payments on
trust preferred debentures. Under the terms of the indenture, the Company has
the right to defer interest payments for up to twenty consecutive quarterly
periods without going into default. During the period of deferral, the principal
balance and unpaid interest will continue to bear interest as set forth in the
indenture. In addition, the Company will not be permitted to pay any dividends
or distributions on, or redeem or make a liquidation payment with respect to,
any of the Company’s common stock during the deferral period. As of June 30,
2010, deferred interest totaled $649,000 and is included in accrued interest
payable on the balance sheet. The Company does not expect the issuance of new
trust preferred securities to be a source of current liquidity.
For
additional information regarding trust preferred securities, see the 2009 10-K
under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations – Liquidity”.
Capital. Total shareholders' equity
was $59,511,000 at June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,862,000, or 3.2%, compared
to December 31, 2009. The Federal Reserve and the FDIC have established minimum
guidelines that mandate risk-based capital requirements for bank holding
companies and member banks. Under the guidelines, risk percentages are assigned
to various categories of assets and off-balance sheet items to calculate a
risk-adjusted capital ratio. Regulatory minimum risk-based capital guidelines
under the Federal Reserve require Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4%
and total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8% to be considered adequately
capitalized. To qualify as well capitalized under the FDIC, banks must have a
Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 6%, and a Total
risk-based capital ratio of 10%. Failure to qualify as well capitalized can
negatively impact a bank’s ability to expand and to engage in certain
activities.
The
Company and the Bank qualify as well capitalized at June 30, 2010 and December
31, 2009 as demonstrated in the table below.

The
Company and the Bank are subject to certain restrictions on the payment of
dividends without prior regulatory approval.
Goodwill Valuation. Goodwill
is assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. The Company
has one reporting unit, the Bank, for purposes for purposes of computing
goodwill. The Company performs an annual review in the second quarter of each
fiscal year, or more frequently if indications of potential impairment exist, to
determine if the recorded goodwill is impaired. During the second quarter, the
Company performed its annual assessment for potential impairment of
goodwill.
A
significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of
impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others; a
significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant
decline in our stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse
change in legal factors or in the business climate; adverse assessment or action
by a regulator; and unanticipated competition. Any adverse change in these
factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of such assets and
could have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial
Statements.
The
goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process. The first step is a
comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. The Company
estimates fair value using the best information available, including market
information and a discounted cash flow analysis, which is also referred to as
the income approach. The income approach uses a reporting unit’s projection of
estimated operating results and cash flows that is discounted using a rate that
reflects current market conditions. The projection uses management’s best
estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including
growth rates in loans and deposits, estimates of future expected changes in net
interest margins and cash expenditures. The market approach estimates fair value
by applying cash flow multiples to the reporting unit’s operating performance.
The multiples are derived from comparable publicly traded companies with similar
operating and investment characteristics of the reporting unit. We validate our
estimated fair value by comparing the fair value estimates using the income
approach to the fair value estimates using the market approach.
As part
of our process for performing the step one impairment test of goodwill, the
Company estimated the fair value of the reporting unit utilizing the allocation
of corporate value approach, the income approach and the market approach in
order to derive an enterprise value of the Company. The allocation of corporate
value approach applies the aggregate market value of the Company and divides it
among the reporting units. A key assumption in this approach is the control
premium applied to the aggregate market value. A control premium is utilized as
the value of a company from the perspective of a controlling interest is
generally higher than the widely quoted market price per share. The Company used
an expected control premium of 30%, which was based on comparable transactional
history.
Assumptions
used by the Company in its discounted cash flow model (income approach) included
an average annual revenue growth rate that approximated 2%, a net interest
margin that ranged from 3.84% to 3.96% and a return on assets that ranged from
0.3% to 0.6%. In addition to utilizing the above projections of estimated
operating results, key assumptions used to determine the fair value estimate
under the income approach was the discount rate of 15.0 percent utilized for our
cash flow estimates and a terminal value estimated at 1.4 times the ending book
value of the reporting unit. The Company used a build-up approach in developing
the discount rate that included: an assessment of the risk free interest rate,
the rate of return expected from publicly traded stocks, the industry the
Company operates in and the size of the Company.
30
In
applying the market approach method, the Company considered all publicly traded
companies within the banking industry in Washington and Oregon with total assets
less than $5 billion. This resulted in selecting seven publicly traded
comparable institutions which were analyzed based on a variety of financial
metrics (tangible equity, leverage ratio, return on assets, return on equity,
net interest margin, nonperforming assets, net charge-offs, and reserves for
loan losses) and other relevant qualitative factors (geographical location,
lines of business, business model, risk profile, availability of financial
information, etc.) After selecting comparable institutions, the
Company derived the fair value of the reporting unit by completing a comparative
analysis of the relationship between their financial metrics listed above and
their market values utilizing various market multiples. Focus was placed
on the price to tangible book value of equity multiple as this multiple
generally reflects returns on the capital employed within the industry and is
generally correlated with the profitability of each individual
company.
The
Company concluded a fair value of its reporting unit of $66.0 million, by
equally weighting the values derived from 1) the corporate value approach of
$66.2 million, 2) the income approach of $67.0 million, and 3) the market
approach of $66.0 million; compared to a carrying value of its reporting unit of
$70.4 million. Based on the results of the step one goodwill impairment
analysis, the Company determined the second step must be performed.
As of the
date of this filing, we have not completed this step two analysis due to the
complexities involved in determining the implied fair value of the goodwill for
the reporting unit. However, based on work performed to date, we do not believe
that an impairment loss is probable. We expect to finalize our goodwill
impairment analysis during the third quarter of 2010 and the results thereof
will be disclosed in the third quarter financial statements. No assurance can be
given that the Company will not record an impairment loss on goodwill in the
future.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND
QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest
rate, credit, and operations risks are the most significant market risks that
affect the Company's performance. The Company relies on loan review, prudent
loan underwriting standards, and an adequate allowance for possible credit
losses to mitigate credit risk.
An
asset/liability management simulation model is used to measure interest rate
risk. The model produces regulatory oriented measurements of interest rate risk
exposure. The model quantifies interest rate risk by simulating forecasted net
interest income over a 12-month time period under various interest rate
scenarios, as well as monitoring the change in the present value of equity under
the same rate scenarios. The present value of equity is defined as the
difference between the market value of assets less current liabilities. By
measuring the change in the present value of equity under various rate
scenarios, management is able to identify interest rate risk that may not be
evident from changes in forecasted net interest income.
The
Company is currently asset sensitive, meaning that interest earning assets
mature or re-price more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities in a given
period. Therefore, a significant increase in market rates of interest could
improve net interest income. Conversely, a decreasing rate environment may
adversely affect net interest income.
31
It should
be noted that the simulation model does not take into account future management
actions that could be undertaken should actual market rates change during the
year. Also, the simulation model results are not exact measures of the Company's
actual interest rate risk. They are only indicators of rate risk exposure based
on assumptions produced in a simplified modeling environment designed to
heighten sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The rate risk exposure
results of the simulation model typically are greater than the Company's actual
rate risk. That is due to the conservative modeling environment, which generally
depicts a worst-case situation. Management has assessed the results of the
simulation reports as of June 30, 2010 and believes that there has been no
material change since December 31, 2009.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND
PROCEDURES
The
Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
information the Company must disclose in its reports filed or submitted under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") is recorded, processed,
summarized, and reported on a timely basis. Our management has evaluated, with
the participation and under the supervision of our chief executive officer
(“CEO”) and chief financial officer (“CFO”), the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the
Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this
evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of such date, the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information
relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be
disclosed in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC's rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures.
No change
in the Company's internal control over financial reporting occurred during our
last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial
reporting.
