Henry Kim, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased to announce another record quarter with net income of $9.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase from $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2021. On a year-to-date basis, net income totaled $18.4 million for the first six months of 2021, up from $6.9 million in the first six months of 2020, a 165% increase. We continue to experience positive credit trends and improving economic conditions that resulted in additional release of loan loss reserves in the quarter. Our total loan portfolio excluding SBA PPP loans increased to $1.55 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $79.1 million, compared to March 31, 2021 and an increase of $125.9 million compared to June 30, 2020. During the second quarter of 2021, we prudently took advantage of our market opportunities to deploy excess liquidity into organic loans.”

Mr. Kim continued, "Net interest margin improved by thirteen basis points in the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to an expansion in loan interest income and a twelve basis point decline on average cost on total interest bearing liabilities. Although there are persistent uncertainties related to the evolving pandemic, our loan pipeline continues to be solid coupled with ample liquidity to expand our net interest income, and we remain positive in our outlook in delivering strong financial performance for the remainder of the year.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental and societal responses thereto, have had a severe impact on recent global economic and market conditions, including significant disruption of, and volatility in, financial markets; global supply chain disruptions; and the institution of social distancing and shelter-in-place requirements that have resulted in temporary closures of many businesses, lost revenues, and increased unemployment throughout the U.S., but also specifically in California, where most of the Company’s operations and a large majority of its customers are located. While California’s and New York’s shelter-at-home limits were largely lifted in June 2021, the local economies in the Company’s primary markets have not yet fully recovered.

Since the beginning of the crisis, the Company has taken a number of steps to protect the safety of its employees and to support its customers. The Company has enabled its staff to work remotely and established safety measures within its bank premises and branches for both employees and customers.

In order to support its customers, the Company has been in close contact with its customers, assessing the level of impact on their businesses, and putting a process in place to evaluate each client’s specific situation and provide relief programs where appropriate. SBA PPP loans totaled $181.0 million (1,746 loans) and loans under modified terms related to the COVID-19 pandemic totaled $16.2 million (6 loan customers) as of June 30, 2021. The Company recognized $65.6 million in forgiveness for 1,061 SBA PPP loans as of June 30, 2021. On January 13, 2021, SBA began accepting applications for second draw PPP loans and the Company had funded $107.3 million (1,160 loans), net of origination fees and costs, as of June 30, 2021.

In addition, the Company has been monitoring its liquidity and capital closely. As of June 30, 2021, the Company maintained $174.6 million, or 8.5% of total assets, of cash and cash equivalents and $601.9 million, or 29.2% of total assets, of available borrowing capacity. All regulatory capital ratios were also well above the regulatory well capitalized requirements as of June 30, 2021.

At this time, the Company cannot estimate the long term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, but these conditions are expected to impact its business, results of operations, and financial condition negatively.

(1)Total funding is the sum of interest-bearing liabilities and noninterest-bearing deposits. The cost of total funding is calculated as annualized total interest expense divided by average total funding.

Loans. Average yields for the current and previous quarters were maintained at 4.63% as increases in net accretion of discount on loans from an increase in loan payoffs and net amortization of deferred loan fees were mostly offset by an increase in SBA PPP loans and lower interest rates on newly originated loans. Excluding SBA PPP loans, weighted-average interest rates on total loans and new loans funded during the current quarter were 4.31% and 3.77%, respectively, at June 30, 2021. The decreases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2020 were primarily due to an increase in SBA PPP loans and a decrease in overall interest rates on loans from lower market rates, partially offset by increases in net accretion of discount on loans and net amortization of deferred loan fees.

The following table presents a composition of total loans by interest rate type accompanied with the weighted-average contractual rates as of the dates indicated:

6/30/2021 3/31/2021 12/31/2020 6/30/2020
% to Total Loans Weighted-Average Contractual Rate % to Total Loans Weighted-Average Contractual Rate % to Total Loans Weighted-Average Contractual Rate % to Total Loans Weighted-Average Contractual Rate
Fixed rate loans 33.9 % 3.56 % 36.3 % 3.44 % 31.7 % 3.86 % 38.4 % 4.18 %
Hybrid rate loans 22.5 % 4.52 % 19.3 % 4.77 % 20.8 % 4.82 % 13.3 % 4.99 %
Variable rate loans 43.6 % 3.99 % 44.4 % 4.04 % 47.5 % 4.06 % 48.3 % 4.11 %

Investment Securities. The decreases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to new investment securities purchased at lower market rates. During the current quarter and past 12-month period, the Company purchased investment securities of $19.3 million and $54.5 million, respectively.

Other Interest-Earning Assets. The increases in average yield for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to an increase in dividend income on Federal Reserve Bank stock. The decrease in average yield for the current year-to-date period compared with the previous year-to-date period was primarily due to lower market rates. The decreases in average balance for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to an increase in loans, partially offset by an increase in deposits. The Company maintains most of its cash at the Federal Reserve Bank account. For additional detail, please see the discussion in “Loans” and “Deposits” under the “Balance Sheet” discussion.

Interest-Bearing Deposits. The decreases in average cost for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to the decreases in market rates.

Borrowings. The increases in average cost for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to matured borrowings with lower interest rates during the current quarter. Matured FHLB advances totaled $30.0 million and $40.0 million, respectively, with a weighted-average rate of 0.32% and 0.47%, respectively, for the current quarter and year-to-date period. At June 30, 2021, the Company had a term FHLB advance of $10.0 million with an interest rate of 2.07% that matures on June 29, 2022.

Provision (reversal) for Loan Losses

Provision (reversal) for loan losses was $(934) thousand for the current quarter compared with $(1.1) million for the previous quarter and $3.9 million for the year-ago quarter. For the current and previous year-to-date periods, provision (reversal) for loan losses was $(2.1) million and $6.8 million, respectively. The reversals for the current and previous quarters were primarily due to a decrease in historical loss and qualitative adjustment factor allocations as a result of improving economic conditions. The Company recorded net charge-offs (recoveries) of $(309) thousand for the current quarter compared with $(151) thousand for the previous quarter and $281 thousand for the year-ago quarter. For the current and previous year-to-date periods, net charge-offs (recoveries) were $(460) thousand and $883 thousand, respectively.

The increases in gain on sale of SBA loans for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to increased origination and sales of SBA loans and higher premiums from the secondary market. The Company sold certain commercial property loans of $1.7 million at par during the current quarter.

The Company services SBA loans and certain residential property loans that are sold to the secondary market. The decreases for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to a decrease in servicing income received and an increase in servicing asset amortization from an increase in loan payoffs.

Salaries and Employee Benefits. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to a decrease in direct loan origination costs, which offsets the recognition of salaries and benefits expense, and an increase in other employee benefits, partially offset by a decrease in vacation accrual. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2020 were primarily due to a decrease in direct loan origination costs and an increase in bonus accrual, partially offset by decreases in vacation accrual and other employee benefits. Direct loan origination costs related to SBA PPP loan production totaled $62 thousand, $750 thousand, and $1.1 million for the current, previous, and year-ago quarters, respectively, and $812 thousand and $1.1 million for the current and previous year-to-date periods, respectively.

Professional Fees. The increases for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarter were primarily due to increases in expenses related to internal audit. The decrease for the current year-to-date period compared with the previous year-to-date period was primarily due to decreases in expenses related to the Bank’s Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”) compliance enhancements. The consent order related to the BSA/AML compliance was terminated on September 30, 2020.

Marketing and business promotion. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to an increase in advertisement during the current quarter.

Director fees and expense. The increase for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to the Board of Directors’ decision to temporarily decrease fees during the year-ago quarter. The decrease for the current year-to-date period compared with the previous year-to-date period was primarily due to a severance payment for a former director in the first quarter of 2020.

Regulatory Assessments. The decreases for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to a decrease in assessment rate and the exclusion of SBA PPP loans from the assessment base, partially offset by an increase in balance sheet growth.

Balance Sheet (Unaudited)

Total assets were $2.06 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $9.3 million, or 0.5%, from $2.05 billion at March 31, 2021 and an increase of $39.2 million, or 1.9%, from $2.02 billion at June 30, 2020. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to increases in loans held-for-investment and investment securities, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

The following table presents a composition of total loans (includes both loans held-for-sale and loans held-for-investment, net of deferred costs (fees)) as of the dates indicated:

The increase in loans held-for-investment for the current quarter was primarily due to new funding of $171.1 million and advances on lines of credit of $28.6 million, partially offset by pay-downs and pay-offs of $164.1 million. The increase in loans held-for-investment for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to new funding of $361.5 million and advances on lines of credit of $56.4 million, partially offset by pay-downs and pay-offs of $279.9 million. SBA PPP loan and commercial property loan production contributed significantly to the Company’s loan growth for the current year-to-date period.

The increase in loans held-for-sale for the current quarter was primarily due to new funding of $43.2 million, partially offset by sales of $37.4 million. The increase in loans held-for-sale for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to new funding of $63.6 million, partially offset by sales of $56.3 million.

Loan Modifications Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company provided modifications, including interest only payments or payment deferrals, to customers that were adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The loan modifications met all criteria under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). Therefore, the modified loans were not considered TDRs. Total loans under modified terms related to the COVID-19 pandemic were $16.2 million at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $19.9 million, or 55.1%, from $36.1 million at December 31, 2020 and a decrease of $467.8 million, or 96.7%, from $484.0 million at June 30, 2020.

The increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to the overall liquid deposit market.

The increase in retail time deposits for the current quarter was primarily due to new accounts of $27.6 million, renewals of the matured accounts of $96.6 million, and balance increases of $4.0 million, partially offset by matured and closed accounts of $126.3 million. The decrease in retail time deposits for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to matured and closed accounts of $321.9 million, partially offset by new accounts of $59.3 million, renewals of the matured accounts of $232.7 million, and balance increases of $6.7 million.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased and retired 646,334 shares of common stock totaling $10.3 million at a weighted-average price of $15.99 per share.

Capital Ratios

Based on changes to the Federal Reserve’s definition of a “Small Bank Holding Company” that increased the threshold to $3 billion in assets in August 2018, the Company is not currently subject to separate minimum capital measurements. At such time as the Company reaches the $3 billion asset level, it will again be subject to capital measurements independent of the Bank. For comparison purposes, the Company’s ratios are included in following discussion. The following table presents capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as of dates indicated:

Non-GAAP Measures your Partner • Choice • Bank | 28 Core Deposits Core Deposits are a non-GAAP measure that we use to measure the portion of our total deposits that are thought to be more stable, lower cost and reprice less frequently on average in a rising rate environment. We calculate core deposits as total deposits less time deposits greater than $250,000 and brokered deposits. Management tracks its core deposits because management believes it is a useful measure to help assess the Company’s deposit base and, among other things, potential volatility therein. Pre-Tax Pre-Provision Income, and Adjusted ROAA, ROAE and Diluted EPS for PTPP PTPP income, and adjusted ROAA, ROAE and Diluted EPS are non-GAAP measures that we use to measure the Company’s performance and believe these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. We calculated PTPP income as net income excluding income tax provision and provision for loan losses. Management believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance. These measures are also useful in understanding performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently
