PACIFIC PREMIER BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2010

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific Premier Bank (the “Bank”) (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009, and March 31, 2009 and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the full year ending December 31, 2010.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The Company accounts for its investments in its wholly owned special purpose entity, PPBI Trust I, under the equity method whereby the subsidiary’s net earnings are recognized in the Company’s statement of income.

Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. The amendments remove the requirement for an SEC registrant to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated as this requirement would have potentially conflicted with SEC reporting requirements. Removal of the disclosure requirement did not have an effect on the nature or timing of subsequent events evaluations performed by the Company. ASU 2010-09 became effective upon issuance.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 revises two disclosure requirements concerning fair value measurements and clarifies two others. It requires separate presentation of significant transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and disclosure of the reasons for such transfers. It will also require the presentation of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements within Level 3 on a gross basis rather than a net basis. The amendments also clarify that disclosures should be disaggregated by class of asset or liability and that disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques should be provided for both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements. The Company’s disclosures about fair value measurements are presented in Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments. These new disclosure requirements were effective for the period ended March 31, 2010, except for the requirement concerning gross presentation of Level 3 activity, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. There was no significant effect to the Company’s financial statement disclosure upon adoption of this ASU.

Note 3 – Regulatory Matters

As defined in applicable regulations, at March 31, 2010, the Bank continued to exceed the “well capitalized” standards for Tier 1 Capital to adjusted tangible assets of 5.00%, Tier 1 risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.00% and total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10.00%.

The Bank’s and the Company’s (on a consolidated basis) capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table at the dates indicated:

	Tier-1 Capital to					Tier-1 Risk-Based Capital to					Total Capital to
	Adjusted Tangible Assets					Risk-Weighted Assets					Risk-Weighted Assets

Note 4 – Subordinated Debentures

In March 2004, the Corporation issued $10.3 million of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the “Subordinated Debentures”) to PPBI Trust I, which funded the payment of $10.0 million of Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities issued by PPBI Trust I in March 2004. The net proceeds from the offering of Trust Preferred Securities were contributed as capital to the Bank to support further growth. Interest is payable quarterly on the Subordinated Debentures at three-month LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum, for an effective rate of 3.00% per annum as of March 31, 2010.

The Corporation is not allowed to consolidate PPBI Trust I into the Company’s financial statements. The resulting effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements is to report the Subordinated Debentures as a component of liabilities.

Note 5 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding common shares in treasury. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of common stock that would then share in earnings and excludes common shares in treasury. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, stock options of 532,000 shares were not included in the computation of earnings per share because their exercise price exceeded the average market price for their respective periods. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, stock options of 613,700 shares were excluded from the computations of diluted earnings per share due to their exercise price exceeding the average market price for their respective periods.

The following table sets forth the Company’s unaudited earnings per share calculations for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company determines the fair market values of certain financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in GAAP under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. GAAP requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

The following provides a summary of the hierarchical levels used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 assets and liabilities may include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market and that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities may include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and other instruments whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities, corporate debt securities, derivative contracts, residential mortgage and loans held-for-sale.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained residual interests in securitizations, residential MSRs, asset-backed securities (“ABS”), highly structured or long-term derivative contracts and certain collateralized debt obligations (“CDO”) where independent pricing information was not able to be obtained for a significant portion of the underlying assets.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include securities available for sale and impaired loans. Securities available for sale include mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Impaired loans include loans that are in a non-accrual status and where the Bank has reduced the principal to the value of the underlying collateral less the anticipated selling cost.

Marketable Securities. Where possible, the Company utilizes quoted market prices to measure debt and equity securities; such items are classified as Level 1 in the hierarchy and include equity securities, US government bonds and securities issued by federally sponsored agencies. When quoted market prices for identical assets are unavailable or the market for the asset is not sufficiently active, varying valuation techniques are used. Common inputs in valuing these assets include, among others, benchmark yields, issuer spreads, forward mortgage-backed securities trade prices and recently reported trades. Such assets are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy and typically include private label mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. Pricing on these securities are provided to the Company by a pricing service vendor. In the Level 3 category, the Company is classifying all the securities that its pricing service vendor cannot price due to lack of trade activity in these securities.

Impaired Loans. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral or the discounted expected future cash flows. The Company measures impairment on all non-accrual loans for which it has reduced the principal balance to the value of the underlying collateral less the anticipated selling cost. As such, the Company records impaired loans as non-recurring Level 2 when the fair value of the underlying collateral is based on an observable market price or current appraised value. When current market prices are not available or the Company determines that the fair value of the underlying collateral is further impaired below appraised values, the Company records impaired loans as Level 3. At March 31, 2010, substantially all the Company’s impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of their underlying collateral based upon the most recent appraisal available to management.

The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain statements that are considered “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements represent plans, estimates, objectives, goals, guidelines, expectations, intentions, projections and statements of our beliefs concerning future events, business plans, objectives, expected operating results and the assumptions upon which those statements are based. Forward-looking statements include without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and are typically identified with words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” or words or phases of similar meaning. We caution that the forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on factors which are, in many instances, beyond our control. Actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed, or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The following factors, among others, could cause our financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in such forward-looking statements:

·	The strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations;

·	The effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”);

·	Inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;

·	The timely development of competitive new products and services and the acceptance of these products and services by new and existing customers;

·	The willingness of users to substitute competitors’ products and services for our products and services;

·	The impact of changes in financial services policies, laws and regulations, including laws, regulations and policies concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance, and the application thereof by regulatory bodies;

·	Technological changes;

·	The effect of acquisitions we may make, if any, including, without limitation, the failure to achieve the expected revenue growth and/or expense savings from such acquisitions;

·	Changes in the level of our nonperforming assets and charge-offs;

·	Oversupply of inventory and continued deterioration in values of California real estate, both residential and commercial;

·	The effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted from time-to-time by bank regulatory agencies, the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other accounting standards setters;

·	Possible other-than-temporary impairments of securities held by us;

·	The impact of current governmental efforts to restructure the U.S. financial regulatory system;

·	Changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

·	The effects of our lack of a diversified loan portfolio, including the risks of geographic and industry concentrations;

·	Ability to attract deposits and other sources of liquidity;

·	Changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers;

·	Changes in the competitive environment among financial and bank holding companies and other financial service providers;

·	Geopolitical conditions, including acts or threats of terrorism, actions taken by the United States or other governments in response to acts or threats of terrorism and/or military conflicts, which could impact business and economic conditions in the United States and abroad;

·	Unanticipated regulatory or judicial proceedings; and

·	Our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing.

If one or more of the factors affecting our forward-looking information and statements proves incorrect, then our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking information and statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports and registration statements filed by us with the SEC. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking information and statements. We will not update the forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the forward-looking statements. The above factors and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K as supplemented by the risk factors contained in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-looking statements should not be viewed as predictions, and should not be the primary basis upon which investors evaluate us. Any investor in our common stock should consider all risks and uncertainties disclosed in our filings with the SEC, all of which are accessible on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

GENERAL

This discussion should be read in conjunction with our Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K plus the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.

We are a California-based bank holding company incorporated in the state of Delaware and registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (“BHCA”). Our wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific Premier Bank, is a California state chartered commercial bank. As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve. We are required to file with the Federal Reserve quarterly and annual reports and such additional information as the Federal Reserve may require pursuant to the BHCA. The Federal Reserve may conduct examinations of bank holding companies and their subsidiaries. The Corporation is also a bank holding company within the meaning of the California Financial Code (the “Financial Code”). As such, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to examination by, and may be required to file reports with, the California Department of Financial Institutions (“DFI”).

Under a policy of the Federal Reserve, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so absent such a policy. The Federal Reserve, under the BHCA, has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or to relinquish control of a nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal Reserve’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.

As a California state-chartered commercial bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is subject to supervision, periodic examination and regulation by the DFI and the Federal Reserve. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the FDIC through the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”). In general terms, insurance coverage is currently unlimited for non-interest bearing transaction accounts and up to $250,000 per owner for all other accounts. This level of insurance is scheduled to revert to $100,000 on January 1, 2014. As a result of this deposit insurance function, the FDIC also has certain supervisory authority and powers over our bank as well as all other FDIC insured institutions. If, as a result of an examination of the Bank, the regulators should determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of the Bank’s operations are unsatisfactory or that the Bank or our management is violating or has violated any law or regulation, various remedies are available to the regulators. Such remedies include the power to enjoin unsafe or unsound practices, to require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in capital, to restrict growth, to assess civil monetary penalties, to remove officers and directors and ultimately to request the FDIC to terminate the Bank’s deposit insurance. As a California-chartered commercial bank, the Bank is also subject to certain provisions of California law.

We provide banking services within our targeted markets in Southern California to businesses, including the owners and employees of those businesses, professionals, real estate investors and non-profit organizations, as well as consumers in the communities we serve. The Bank operates six depository branches in Southern California located in the cities of Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Los Alamitos, Newport Beach, San Bernardino, and Seal Beach. Our corporate headquarters are located in Costa Mesa, California. Through our branches and our web site at www.ppbi.com on the Internet, we offer a broad array of deposit products and services for both businesses, and consumer customers including checking, money market and savings accounts, cash management services, electronic banking, and on-line bill payment. We also offer a variety of loan products, including commercial business loans, lines of credit, commercial real estate loans, U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, residential home loans, and home equity loans. The Bank funds its lending and investment activities with retail deposits obtained through its branches, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of San Francisco, lines of credit, and wholesale and brokered certificates of deposits.

Our principal source of income is the net spread between interest earned on loans and investments and the interest costs associated with deposits and borrowings used to finance the loan and investment portfolios. Additionally, the Bank generates fee income from loan sales and various products and services offered to both depository and loan customers.

Recent Developments

General Economic Developments. Although recent U.S. economic indicators have indicated the health of the economy is improving, the economy may require an extended period of time to recover from the recessionary period. The financial markets, and the financial services industry in particular, suffered significant disruption starting in 2008, which has resulted in many institutions failing or requiring government intervention to avoid failure. These conditions, brought about primarily by dislocations in the U.S. and global credit markets, including a significant and rapid deterioration in mortgage lending and related real estate markets, continue to negatively affect the U.S. economy and the markets where we do business.

The United States, state and foreign governments have taken extraordinary actions in an attempt to deal with what was a global financial crisis and the severe decline in the U.S. economy. There can be no assurance that any other legislation or regulatory reform or initiatives will be effective at improving economic conditions globally, nationally or in our markets, or that the measures adopted will not have adverse consequences on our results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management has established various accounting policies which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers these to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions management uses are based on historical experience and other factors, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at balance sheet dates and our results of operations for future reporting periods.

We consider the allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy that requires judicious estimates and assumptions in the preparation of our financial statements that is particularly susceptible to significant change. For further information, see “Allowances for Loan Losses” discussed later in this report and in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At March 31, 2010, assets totaled $767.6 million, up $30.4 million or 4.1% from March 31, 2009. During the first quarter of 2010, assets declined $39.7 million or 4.9% primarily due to decreases of $28.7 million in loans held for investment, net and $10.1 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Loans

At March 31, 2010, net loans held for investment totaled $537.9 million, down $75.1 million or 12.2% from March 31, 2009 and down $28.7 million or 5.1% from December 31, 2009.

Gross loans held for investment totaled $547.6 million at March 31, 2010, compared to $620.6 million at March 31, 2009 and $576.3 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease of $28.7 million in the current quarter was primarily due to loan sales of $14.3 million, payoffs of $15.4 million and other real estate owned (“OREO”) acquired in the settlement of loans of $3.5 million, all of which exceeded originations of $2.9 million and the net change in undisbursed loan funds of $2.5 million. Given the weakness in the commercial real estate (“CRE”) markets where our loans are located, during the first quarter of 2010, management implemented a strategy to sell performing CRE loans to reduce their concentration in the loan portfolio. We also sold delinquent and nonaccrual loans as part of our aggressive loss mitigation strategies to minimize losses to our loan portfolio. From time to time, management utilizes loan purchases or sales to manage its liquidity, interest rate risk, loan to deposit ratio, diversification of the loan portfolio and net balance sheet growth.

Delinquent Loans. When a borrower fails to make required payments on a loan and does not cure the delinquency within 30 days, we normally record a notice of default and, after providing the required notices to the borrower, commence foreclosure proceedings. If the loan is not reinstated within the time permitted by law, we may sell the property at a foreclosure sale. At these foreclosure sales, we generally acquire title to the property. At March 31, 2010, loans delinquent 30 or more days as a percentage of total gross loans was 1.10%, down from 1.65% at year-end 2009 and from 1.90% at March 31, 2009. The improvement in the ratio during the first quarter of 2010 was primarily from the sale of $6.0 million of delinquent commercial real estate loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents an estimate of probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio and is determined by applying a systematically derived loss factor to individual segments of the loan portfolio. The adequacy and appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses and the individual loss factors is reviewed each quarter by management.

The loss factor for each segment of our loan portfolio is generally based on our actual historical loss rate experience with emphasis on recent past periods to account for current economic conditions and supplemented by management judgment for certain segments where we lack loss history experience. We also consider historical charge-off rates for the last 10 and 15 years for commercial banks and savings institutions headquartered in California as collected and reported by the FDIC. The loss factor is adjusted by qualitative adjustment factors to arrive at a final loss factor for each loan portfolio segment. For additional information regarding the qualitative adjustments, please see “Allowances for Loan Losses” discussed in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The qualitative factors allow management to assess current trends within our loan portfolio and the economic environment to incorporate their affect when calculating the allowance for loan losses. The final loss factors are applied to pass graded loans within our loan portfolio. Higher factors are applied to loans graded below pass, including classified and criticized assets.

No assurance can be given that we will not, in any particular period, sustain loan losses that exceed the amount reserved, or that subsequent evaluation of our loan portfolio, in light of the prevailing factors, including economic conditions which may adversely affect our market area or other circumstances, will not require significant increases in the loan loss allowance. In addition, regulatory agencies as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize additional provisions to increase the allowance or take charge-offs in anticipation of future losses.

At March 31, 2010, the Company’s allowance for loan losses was $9.2 million, an increase of $2.8 million from the year ago quarter end and an increase of $264,000 from year-end 2009. The current first quarter increase in the allowance for loan losses was primarily due to the provision for loan losses of $1.1 million, partially offset by net loan charge-offs of $0.8 million, which were down from the $1.4 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in the allowance for loan losses from year end was attributed to the continued slow economic growth in the economy, especially in Southern California. At March 31, 2010, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans increased to 1.68% from 1.55% at December 31, 2009, while the allowance for loan losses as a percent of nonperforming loans increased to 213.28% from 88.94% at December 31, 2009. At March 31, 2010, given the composition of our loan portfolio, the allowance for loan losses was considered adequate to cover estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Investment Securities Available for Sale

Investment securities available for sale totaled $120.3 million at March 31, 2010, up from $66.2 million at March 31, 2009, but down from $123.4 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease in the current quarter of $3.1 million or 2.54% was primarily due to the sale of securities totaling $24.3 million and principal received of $3.2 million, partially offset by purchases of $24.6 million. At March 31, 2010, the investment securities available for sale consisted of $155,000 in U.S. Treasury securities, $95.8 million of government sponsored enterprises (“GSE”) mortgage-backed securities, $19.3 million of municipal bonds and $5.1 million of private label mortgage-backed securities. Within our private label securities, 32 or $1.2 million were rated as investment grade while 55 or $3.9 million were rated as below investment grade, which is any rating below “BBB”. All of our private label mortgage-backed securities were acquired when we redeemed our shares in certain mutual funds in 2008.

Each quarter, we review individual securities classified as available for sale to determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. If it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the debt security, an OTTI write down will be recorded against the security and a loss recognized. During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we took a net $326,000 OTTI charge against our private label mortgage-backed securities deemed to be impaired, compared to a small recovery of OTTI charges during the same period last year. These impaired private label mortgage-backed securities are classified as substandard assets with all the interest received since the date of impairment being applied against their principal balances.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets consist of loans on which we have ceased accruing interest (nonaccrual loans), restructured loans and real estate acquired in settlement of loans (OREO). It is our general policy to account for a loan as nonaccrual when the loan becomes 90 days delinquent or when collection of interest appears doubtful.

Nonperforming assets totaled $10.5 million or 1.36% of total assets at March 31, 2010, compared to $7.6 million or 1.04% of total assets at March 31, 2009 and $13.4 million or 1.66% of total assets as of December 31, 2009. The 2010 first quarter decline was primarily from loan sales of $3.4 million and net loan charge offs of $0.8 million coupled with other real estate owned sales of $0.5 million and property write downs of $226,000. These declines in nonperforming assets were partially offset by additions to nonperforming loans of $2.3 million as the weak California economy continues to affect our borrowers. During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we transferred $3.5 million of nonaccrual loans to OREO. At March 31, 2010, nonperforming assets consisted of $4.3 million of nonaccrual loans and $6.2 million of OREO. Of our total nonaccrual loans, $2.1 million represented borrowers who were current on their loan payments. Within OREO, we had five properties consisting of two commercial real estate properties totaling $2.4 million, one commercial land property of $2.1 million and two multi-family properties totaling $1.7 million. Of the five properties, two commercial real estate properties and one multi-family property totaling $2.5 million were in escrow at March 31, 2010 and schedule to be sold in the second quarter of 2010.

(2)	Gross loans include loans receivable held for investment and held for sale.

Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity

Total liabilities were $693.5 million at March 31, 2010, compared to $679.1 million at March 31, 2009 and $733.8 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease during the first quarter of 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in FHLB advances and other borrowings of $25.0 million, accrued expenses and other liabilities of $9.5 million and total deposits of $5.8 million. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily from investment securities available for sale of $8.2 million that were purchased and not settled at year-end 2009.

Deposits. Total deposits were $612.9 million as of March 31, 2010, up $119.6 million or 24.2% from March 31, 2009, but down $5.8 million or 0.9% from December 31, 2009. The decline in deposits during the current quarter was comprised of decreases in retail certificate of deposits of $20.3 million and wholesale/brokered certificates of deposits of $2.5 million, partially offset by increases in interest-bearing transaction accounts of $12.8 million and noninterest bearing accounts of $4.2 million. As of March 31, 2010, we had $143.0 million of certificate of deposits scheduled to reprice in the next quarter.

Borrowings. At March 31, 2010, total borrowings amounted to $76.8 million, down $105.5 million or 57.9% from March 31, 2009 and $25.0 million or 24.6% from December 31, 2009. The reduction in borrowings during the first quarter of 2010 was due to the pay down of a fixed FHLB term advance, which carried a rate of 4.87%. At March 31, 2010, total borrowings represented 10.0% of total assets and were comprised of the following:

·	One FHLB term borrowing of $38.0 million at an interest rate of 4.92%, collateralized by pledges of certain real estate loans with an aggregate principal balance of $470.8 million and FHLB stock totaling $12.7 million, and that matures in November 2010;

Three inverse putable reverse repurchase agreements totaling $28.5 million at a weighted average rate of 3.04% and secured by approximately $45.4 million of mortgage backed securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Government National Mortgage Association, and Federal National Mortgage Association; and

·	Subordinated debentures used to fund the issuance of trust preferred securities in 2004 of $10.3 million with a rate of 3.00%.

Stockholders’ Equity. Total equity was $74.1 million as of March 31, 2010, up from $58.2 million at March 31, 2009 and $73.5 million at December 31, 2009. The current quarter increase of $619,000 was primarily due to net income of $456,000, an increase in the accumulated adjustment to stockholders’ equity of $142,000 due to an increase in the unrealized value of our investment portfolio. The increase in total equity from the end of the first quarter of 2009 to the end of the first quarter of 2010 was primarily due to a successful capital raise in the fourth quarter of 2009, whereby the Company raised gross proceeds of $15.5 million from the sale of 5,030,385 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $3.25 per share. At March 31, 2010, the Company’s tangible common equity to total assets ratio was 9.66%, basic book value per share was $7.39 and diluted book value per share was $6.80.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded net income of $456,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to net income of $537,000 or $0.09 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2009. All diluted earnings per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the dilutive effect of all warrants and stock options, except for those options whose exercise price exceeds the closing market price as of March 31, 2010. See “Note 5 – Earnings Per Share”, in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein.

The Company’s pre-tax income decreased $261,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, compared to same period in 2009, which was primarily due to:

·	A $1.0 million loss on the sale of $14.3 million of commercial real estate loans in 2010, which loss was essentially all derived from the sales of $6.0 million of delinquent loans, compared with no sales activity in 2009;

·	A $326,000 other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) loss taken on private label securities in 2010, compared to small recovery of loss in 2009; and

·	A $301,000 increase in other real estate owned operations, net, primarily related to current period write downs.

Partially offsetting these unfavorable items was a $1.4 million increase in net interest income due to a higher net interest margin and level of interest earning assets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, our return on average assets was 0.23% and return on average equity was 2.47%, compared to our return on average assets of 0.29% and return on average equity of 3.73% for the same comparable period of 2009. Our basic book value per share increased to $7.39 at March 31, 2010 from $7.33 at December 31, 2009. Our diluted book value per share increased to $6.80 at March 31, 2010 from $6.75 at December 31, 2009, reflecting an annualized increase of 3.0%.

Net Interest Income

Our earnings are derived predominately from net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets, primarily loans and securities, and the interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. The spread between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and the relative dollar amounts of these assets and liabilities principally affect net interest income.

Net interest income totaled $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2010, up $1.4 million or 26.2% from the same period in the prior year. The increase reflected a higher net interest margin of 3.56% in the current quarter from 3.00% in the prior year quarter and a higher level of average interest-earning assets amounting to$748.8 million in the current quarter, compared to $703.1 million in the prior year quarter. The 56 basis point increase in the current quarter net interest margin reflected the average costs on interest-bearing liabilities decreasing more rapidly than the average yield on interest-earning assets. The lower cost on our interest-bearing liabilities resulted primarily from a decline in our cost of deposits of 143 basis points during the current quarter. The lower yield on our current quarter interest-earning assets was primarily associated with the unfavorable impact of a higher proportion of average cash and cash equivalents held and a lower yield on investment securities of 137 basis points. The lower yield on our investment securities was primarily due to the decision to reduce our credit risk exposure in our securities portfolio by selling private label securities with higher credit risk and replacing them with lower yielding, lower credit risk GSE securities. These GSE securities also enhanced our regulatory capital as they have a lower asset risk weighting than private label securities.

The following table presents for the periods indicated the average dollar amounts from selected balance sheet categories calculated from daily average balances and the total dollar amount, including adjustments to yields and costs, of:

·	Interest income earned from average interest-earning assets and the resultant yields; and

·	Interest expense incurred from average interest-bearing liabilities and resultant costs, expressed as rates.

The table also sets forth our net interest income, net interest rate spread and net interest rate margin for the periods indicated. The net interest rate margin reflects the relative level of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities and equals our net interest rate spread divided by average interest-earning assets for the periods indicated.

Changes in our net interest income are a function of changes in both volumes and rates of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table presents the impact the volume and rate changes have had on our net interest income for the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, we have provided information on changes to our net interest income with respect to:

·	Changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate);

·	Changes in interest rates (changes in interest rates multiplied by prior volume); and

·	The net change or the combined impact of volume and rate changes allocated proportionately to changes in volume and changes in interest rates.

Provision for Loan Losses

During the first quarter of 2010, the provision for loan losses totaled $1.1 million, a decrease of $104,000 from the first quarter of 2009. Net loan charge offs amounted to $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of $147,000 from the same period in the prior year. The recent loan charge offs we have experienced are related to the continued general economic weakness in the California economy, as reflected in high unemployment figures, sluggish commercial real estate markets and other economic factors, which adversely affect our borrowers, our borrower’s businesses and the collateral securing our loans.

Our Loss Mitigation Department continues collection efforts on loans previously written down and/or charged-off to maximize potential recoveries. See “Allowance for Loan Losses” discussed above in this report.

Noninterest Income

In the first quarter of 2010, we had a noninterest loss of $0.7 million, compared to noninterest income of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2009. This unfavorable change between quarters was primarily due to $1.0 million loss on the sale of loans in the current quarter, virtually all derived from the sales of $6.0 million of delinquent loans, compared with no loan sales activity in the prior year quarter and net OTTI charges of $326,000 in the current quarter, compared to a small recovery of loss in the prior year quarter. Given the weakness in the CRE markets where our loans are located, during the first quarter of 2010, management implemented a strategy to sell performing CRE loans to reduce their concentration in the loan portfolio. We also sold delinquent and nonaccrual loans as part of our aggressive loss mitigation strategies to minimize losses to our loan portfolio. The OTTI charges were on private label securities we acquired when we redeemed our shares in certain mutual funds in 2008.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $4.3 million in the first quarter of 2010, up $392,000 from the same period in the prior year. The increase primarily related to higher costs within other real estate owned operations, net of $301,000, due to an increase in write downs of $226,000 and, to a lesser extent, an increase in the number of foreclosed properties. The number of full-time equivalent employees at March 31, 2010 was 90 compared to 89 at December 31, 2009.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had a tax provision of $100,000, compared to $280,000 for the same period in 2009. The change in income taxes was primarily due to a reduction in net income before taxes of $261,000. At March 31, 2010, we had no valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset of $11.5 million based on management’s analysis that the asset was more-likely-than-not to be realized.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Our primary sources of funds are deposits; advances from the FHLB and other borrowings; principal and interest payments on loans; and income from investments. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit inflows and outflows as well as loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.

Our primary sources of funds generated during the first three months of 2010 were from:

·	Proceeds of $28.7 million from the sale and principal payments on loans held for investment; and

·	Proceeds of $24.4 million from the sale of securities available for sale.

We used these funds to:

·	Reduce borrowings by $25.0 million; and

·	Purchase of $32.8 million of securities available for sale.

Our most liquid assets are unrestricted cash and short-term investments. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2010, cash and cash equivalents totaled $49.6 million and the market value of our investment securities available for sale totaled $120.3 million. If additional funds are needed, we have additional sources of liquidity that can be accessed, including FHLB advances, Federal Funds lines, the Federal Reserve’s lending programs and loan sales. As of March 31, 2010, the maximum amount we could borrow through the FHLB was $361.1 million, of which $275.5 million was available for borrowing based on collateral pledged of $470.8 million in real estate loans and FHLB Stock of $12.7 million. Considering our existing FHLB advance of $38.0 million, the Company had $237.5 million of available funds to borrow. In addition to the FHLB advances, the Bank had unsecured lines of credit on which to draw funds with other financial institutions, including the Federal Reserve Bank, for a total of $34.8 million. At March 31, 2010, no funds had been drawn against these lines.

To the extent 2010 deposit growth falls short of satisfying ongoing commitments to fund maturing and withdrawalable deposits, repay maturing borrowings, fund existing and future loans, or make investments, we may access funds through our FHLB borrowing arrangement, unsecured lines of credit or other sources. For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, our average liquidity ratio was 19.93%, up from a ratio 9.40% for the same period in 2009.

Regulatory Capital Compliance

The Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, to be considered adequately capitalized by regulatory agencies, a bank must meet a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to tangible total assets (leverage ratio) of 4.0%, of Tier 1 capital to risk-adjusted assets of 4.0% and of total capital to risk-adjusted assets of 8.0%. The minimum leverage ratio is lowered to 3.0% for a bank rated at the highest level of safety and soundness by regulators. Despite these guidelines, the regulators still have the discretion to increase these minimum capital ratios for specific institutions, if deemed appropriate. At March 31, 2010, the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements with a ratio for Tier 1 leverage capital of 10.01%, Tier 1 risked-based capital of 13.96% and total risk-based capital of 15.21%. These capital ratios exceeded the more stringent “well capitalized” standards defined by the federal banking regulators of 5.00% for Tier 1 leverage capital, 6.00% for Tier 1 risked-based capital and 10.00%, for total risk-based capital. At March 31, 2010, the Company had a ratio for tier1 leverage capital of 10.17%, Tier 1 risked-based capital of 14.06% and total risk-based capital of 15.32%.
