PACIFIC PREMIER BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2006

(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, F.S.B. (the “Bank”) (collectively, the “Company”).  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2006 and 2005, the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the full year ending December 31, 2006.

 

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, 2005.

 

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

 

The pro forma effects of applying SFAS No. 123 are disclosed below (dollars in thousands, except per share data) for the periods shown below:

In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” (“SFAS 155”), which provides the following: 1) permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, 2) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” 3) establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, 4) clarifies that concentrations of credit in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and 5) amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities a replacement of FASB Statement 125” to eliminate the prohibition of a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS 155 for accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments is effective for us beginning January 1, 2007. Adoption of SFAS 155 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

 

In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (“SFAS 156”), which provides the following: 1) revised guidance on when a servicing asset and servicing liability should be recognized, 2) requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, 3) permits an entity to elect to measure servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value each reporting date and report changes in fair value in earnings in the period in which the changes occur, 4) upon initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities for securities which are identified as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in the fair value of servicing assets or liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value, and 5) requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional footnote disclosures. SFAS 156 is effective for us beginning January 1, 2007 with the effects of initial adoption being reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The impact to retained earnings of the Company as a result of the initial adoption of SFAS 156 is expected to be immaterial.

million in Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances with a weighted average interest rate of 4.30% and a weighted average maturity of 0.25 years, as of March 31, 2006.  Advances from the FHLB are collateralized by pledges of certain real estate loans with an aggregate principal balance of $460.9 million.  As of March 31, 2006, the Bank was able to borrow up to 45% of its total assets as of December 31, 2005 under the line, which amounted to $314.7 million, an increase of $18.0 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2005.  FHLB advances consisted of the following as of March 31, 2006:

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 fund the payment of $10.0 million of Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities which were 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 7.35% per annum as of March 31, 2006.

 

Under FIN 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51,” 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.  Prior to the issuance of FIN 46R, bank holding companies typically consolidated these entities and reported the Trust Preferred Securities as a component of liabilities.

 

Note 5 – Earnings Per Share

 

  Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders including common stock equivalents, such as outstanding stock options and warrants by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding for the period.  Stock options totaling 94,147 and 117,597 shares for March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their exercise price exceeded the average market price.

Note 6 – Valuation Allowance for Deferred Income Taxes

 

The Company benefited from a reduction in its valuation allowance for deferred taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005 of $500,000 and $500,000, respectively.  The Company’s valuation allowance for deferred taxes was $1.9 million at March 31, 2006. The decrease in the deferred tax valuation allowance is due to management’s updated forecast of taxable earnings for the foreseeable future.  As the Company recognizes continuous taxable income and if the earnings projections show that the Company will have the ability to use its net operating loss carry-forwards, then all, or part, of the remaining valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $1.9 million will be eliminated.

 

Note 7 – Purchase of Bank Owned Life Insurance

 

The Company purchased $10.0 million in Bank owned life insurance on March 28, 2006.

 

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

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company.  There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be the same as those anticipated by management.  Actual results may differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  These include, but are not limited to, the following risks: (1) changes in the performance of the financial markets,  (2) changes in the demand for and market acceptance of the Company’s products and services,  (3) changes in general economic conditions including interest rates, presence of competitors with greater financial resources, and the impact of competitive projects and pricing,  (4)  the effect of the Company’s policies,  (5)  the continued availability of adequate funding sources,  and (6)  various legal, regulatory and litigation risks.

 

GENERAL

 

The following presents management’s discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and operating results of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.  The discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis included in the 2005 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, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.

 

The Corporation, a Delaware corporation organized in 1997, is a unitary savings and loan holding company that owns 100% of the capital stock of the Bank, the Corporation’s principal operating subsidiary.  The primary business of the Company is community banking.

 

8



 

The Bank was founded in 1983 as a state chartered savings and loan and became a federally chartered stock savings bank in 1991.  The Bank is a member of the FHLB of San Francisco, which is a member bank of the Federal Home Loan Bank System.  The Bank’s deposit accounts are insured up to the $100,000 maximum amount, except for retirement accounts which are insured up to the $250,000 maximum currently allowable under federal laws by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (“SAIF”), which is a separate insurance fund administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).  The Bank is subject to examination and regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), its primary federal regulator, and by the FDIC.

 

The Company is a financial services organization committed to serving consumers and small businesses in Southern California. The Bank operates five depository branches in Southern California located in the cities of San Bernardino, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, Los Alamitos, and Costa Mesa, a Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loan production office in Pasadena and our corporate headquarters in Costa Mesa, California.  In the third quarter of 2006, we will be opening our sixth depository branch in the city of Newport Beach.  The Bank, through its branches and web site at www.PPBI.net on the internet, offers a broad array of deposit products and services for both commercial and consumer customers including checking, money market and savings accounts, cash management services, electronic banking, and on-line bill payment.  Additionally, the Bank offers a wide array of loan products, such as commercial business loans, lines of credit, commercial real estate loans, SBA loans, residential home loans, and home equity loans. The Bank funds its lending and investment activities primarily with retail deposits obtained through its branches, advances from the FHLB of San Francisco, lines of credit, and wholesale and brokered certificates of deposits.

 

The Company’s principal sources of income are the net spread between interest earned on loans and investments and the interest costs associated with deposits and other borrowings used to finance its loan and investment portfolio.  Additionally, the Bank generates fee income from various products and services offered to both depository and loan customers.

 

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 the Company’s financial statements.  The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2005 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 the Company’s results of operations for future reporting periods.

 

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses and the valuation allowance on deferred taxes are the critical accounting policies that require estimates and assumptions in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements that are most susceptible to significant change. For further information, see “Allowances for Loan Losses” and “Provision for Income Taxes” discussed later in this document and in our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Total assets of the Company were $684.9 million as of March 31, 2006, compared to $702.7 million as of December 31, 2005.  The $17.8 million or 2.5% decrease in total assets was primarily the result of decreases of $28.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, which was partially offset by the addition of $10.0 million of Bank-owned life insurance, which is classified in other assets.

Loans

 

Gross loans outstanding totaled $603.5 million at March 31, 2006 compared to $605.0 million at December 31, 2005.  The $1.5 million decrease is the net result of new volume of $56.0 million, which was offset by multifamily loan sales of $38.9 million and $18.5 million in principal repayments during the first three months of 2006.  The Company’s commercial real estate secured loans grew during the first quarter of 2006 by $10.8 million, an annualized rate of 34.4%.

 

The Bank originated $38.5 million, $16.0 million, and $1.5 million, respectively, of adjustable-rate multi-family loans, commercial real estate secured loans, and commercial business loans for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses totaled $3.0 million as of March 31, 2006 and $3.1 million as of December 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of nonperforming loans was 215.9% and 180.8% as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.  Net nonperforming assets totaled $1.4 million at March 31, 2006 and $1.7 million as of December 31, 2005, or 0.20% and 0.24% of total assets, respectively.

 

The Company’s determination of the level of the allowance for loan losses and, correspondingly, the provision for loan losses, rests upon various judgments and assumptions.  The allowance for the one-to-four family residential loan portfolio is primarily based upon the Bank’s historical loss experience from charge-offs and real estate owned for the last 33 quarters, and a historical delinquency migration analysis.   For the multi-family and commercial real estate loan portfolio, the Bank analyzes and uses the 10 year historical loan loss experience for multi-family and commercial real estate secured loans compiled by the OTS to determine its loss factors, since the Bank has not experienced any losses or delinquency on its own loans within the income property portfolio. For the commercial business loans portfolio, the Bank bases the level of allowance on the type of collateral and the nine year historical loan loss experience for commercial business loans compiled by the OTS. Given the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio, the $3.0 million allowance for loan losses was considered adequate to cover losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio at March 31, 2006. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will not, in any particular period, sustain loan losses that exceed the amount reserved, or that subsequent evaluation of the loan portfolio, in light of the prevailing factors, including economic conditions which may adversely affect the Company’s 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 the Bank’s allowance for loan losses.  Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additional provisions to increase the allowance or take charge-offs in anticipation of future losses.

 

The table below summarizes the activity of the Company’s allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

Composition of Nonperforming Assets

 

The table below summarizes the Company’s composition of nonperforming assets as of the dates indicated.  The decrease in the total nonperforming assets is primarily due to decreases in net nonperforming one-to-four family loans of $300,000.  All nonperforming loans consist of one-to-four family loans.

Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity

 

Total liabilities of the Company decreased from $652.2 million at December 31, 2005 to $632.3 million at March 31, 2006.  The decrease is primarily due to decreases of $12.6 million and $8.7 million of broker and consumer certificates of deposit, respectively.

 

The Company had $305.0 million in FHLB advances and other borrowings as of March 31, 2006, compared to $307.8 million in such borrowings at December 31, 2005.  Advances from the FHLB are collateralized by pledges of certain real estate loans with an aggregate principal balance of $460.9 million.  The Bank may borrow up to 45% of its assets under the line.  As of March 31, 2006, the maximum the Bank may borrow was $314.7 million, based on the Bank’s assets as of December 31, 2005.  The total cost of the Company’s borrowings at March 31, 2006 was 4.40%, an increase of 155 basis points compared to the same period in 2005.

 

Deposits decreased by $16.5 million to $311.4 million at March 31, 2006, compared to $327.9 million of deposits at December 31, 2005.  The decrease in deposits was primarily comprised of decreases of $21.3 million in certificates of deposits, which were partially offset by $4.1 million increase in transaction accounts.  During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the cost of deposits increased 95 basis points to 3.27% compared to the same period in 2005.

 

Total stockholder’s equity increased $2.0 million to $52.6 million at March 31, 2006, compared to $50.6 million at December 31, 2005, primarily due to net income during this period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Highlights for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005:

 

The Company recorded first quarter net income of $1.7 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2005, an increase of 6.5%.  All diluted earnings per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the dilutive effect of all warrants and stock options outstanding.  See Note 5 – Earnings Per Share.

 

Return on average assets (ROAA) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was 1.02% compared to 1.18% for the same period in 2005.  The Company’s return on average equity (ROAE) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was 13.41 % compared to 14.58% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.  The Company’s basic and diluted book value per share increased to $9.99 and $8.35, respectively, at March 31, 2006, reflecting an annualized increase of 13.2% and 12.8% from December 31, 2005.  Options whose exercise price exceeds the closing market price as of March 31, 2006 are excluded from the diluted book value calculation.

 

Net Interest Income

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2006, net interest income increased to $4.6 million from $4.1 million for the same period a year earlier.  The increase for the three month period is predominately attributable to a 23.4% increase in the average loans outstanding or $117.9 million and a 16.6% increase in the average quarterly loan yield to 6.40% from 5.49%, over the prior year period, which was partially offset by increases in average borrowings and deposits outstanding of $119.3 million or 23.6%.

 

The Company’s net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was 2.79% compared to 3.06% for the period ended March 31, 2005.   The decrease in the margin from March 31, 2005 was primarily attributable to increases in the average cost of deposits and borrowings of 96 and 158 basis points, respectively, which was partially offset by an increase in the yield on earning assets of 92 basis points.   The increase in earning assets yields are primarily due to the repricing of the Bank’s adjustable rate loans and the origination of higher yielding commercial real estate and business loans. At March 31, 2006, the Bank’s loan portfolio was comprised of $581.6 million of adjustable rate loans, representing 96.4% of its total loan portfolio as of such date.  These loans have an overall average time to reprice of 14.0 months. The adjustable rate loan portfolio contains $231.4 million of loans that are scheduled to reprice in April 2006 of which $168.3 million is indexed to the 12 Month Treasury Average rate (12-MTA), a lagging index, and $32.6 million that is indexed to the six-month LIBOR rate. The increase in the cost of funds is attributable to the overall rising short-term interest rate environment and strong competitor deposit pricing within the Bank’s primary markets.

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s average balance sheets (unaudited), and the related weighted average yields and costs on average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.           The yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown.  Average balances are measured on a daily basis.  The yields and costs include fees that are considered adjustments to yields.

Provision for Loan Losses

 

The provision for loan losses was zero for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $145,000 for the same period in 2005.  The decrease in the provision for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005 was primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in net loans during the quarter compared to a $51.0 million increase in net loans during the same period in 2005.  The net charge-off for the first quarter of 2006 was $58,000 compared to $4,000 for the same period in 2005.  The Bank’s Loss Mitigation Department continues collection efforts on loans previously written-down and/or charged-off to maximize potential recoveries.  See “Allowance for Loan Losses.”

 

Noninterest Income

 

Non-interest income was $946,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $626,000 for the same period ended March 31, 2005.  The 51.1% increase in noninterest income for the three month period was primarily due to increases in gains from the loan sales of $317,000 and prepayment penalty income of $174,000 over the same period in 2005. During the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Bank sold $38.9 million of multi-family loans (with servicing-retained on $26.9 million of those loans sold) as part of its strategy to diversify its loan portfolio. Prepayment penalties totaling $267,000 was collected from the early pay-off of $12.7 million of multi-family and commercial real estate loans. Partially offsetting the gain from loan sales and prepayment penalty income was a reduction in the recoveries of charged-off loans associated with the Participation Contract of $174,000.

 

Noninterest Expense

 

Non-interest expense was $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $2.8 million for the same period ended March 31, 2005.  The increase in noninterest expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was the result of increases in compensation and benefits, premises and occupancy expense, and marketing costs of $341,000, $223,000, and $90,000, respectively.  The growth in compensation and benefits expense is primarily due to the costs related to the increase in full-time equivalent employees from 75 at March 31, 2005 to 97 at March 31, 2006. A large portion, $117,000, of the increase in our premise and occupancy expense is attributable to the rent associated with the Bank’s new branches and SBA production office, as well as, a rent increase on our San Bernardino branch. The Bank expects to continue to add additional staffing throughout 2006 for its three new branches.

 

17



 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

The Company’s tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $151,000.  For the same period a year earlier, the tax provision was $156,000.  The Company benefited from a reduction in its valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $500,000 in both quarters ending March 31, 2006 and 2005.  The Company’s valuation allowance for deferred taxes was $1.9 million at March 31, 2006.  The decrease in the deferred tax valuation allowance is due to Management’s updated forecast of taxable earnings for the foreseeable future and because we believe that it is more likely than not that we will realize these tax assets.  As the Company recognizes continuous taxable income and if the earning projections show that the Company will, more likely than not, have the ability to use its net operating loss carry-forwards, then all or part of the remaining valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $1.9 million will be eliminated.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

The Bank’s primary sources of funds are principal and interest payments on loans, deposits and borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.  However, the Bank has continued to maintain the required minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by OTS regulations. This requirement, which may be varied at the direction of the OTS depending upon economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings. The Bank’s average liquidity ratios were 6.98% and 6.17% for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

 

The Company’s cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities.  Cash flows used in operating activities was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of  $678,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005.  Net cash used in investing activities was $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $53.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005.  Net cash used in financing activities was $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to net cash provided by financing activities $43.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

 

The Company’s most liquid assets are unrestricted cash and short-term investments.  The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company’s operating, lending and investing activities during any given period.  At March 31, 2006, cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.3 million and the market-value of the Bank’s short-term investments totaled $26.7 million.  The Company has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises, including the utilization of FHLB advances.

 

As of March 31, 2006, the Bank had outstanding commitments for loan originations and unused lines of credit of $750,000 and $5.6 million, respectively, compared to $2.2 million and $5.5 million, respectively, at December 31, 2005.  There were no material changes to the Company’s commitments or contingent liabilities as of March 31, 2006 compared to the period ended December 31, 2005 as discussed in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements of Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc., for the year ended December 31, 2005 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three minimum capital requirements: a 1.5% tangible capital ratio, a 3.0% Tier 1 leverage capital ratio and an 8.0% risk-based capital ratio.  The Tier 1 leverage capital requirement has been effectively increased to 4.0% because the prompt corrective action legislation provides that institutions with less than 4.0% Tier 1 leverage capital will be deemed “undercapitalized.”  In addition, the OTS, under the prompt corrective action regulation, can impose various constraints on institutions depending on their level of capitalization ranging from “well capitalized” to “critically undercapitalized.”

 

18



 

The table in “Item 1. Financial Statements - Note 2 - “Regulatory Matters” reflects the Bank’s capital ratios based on the end of the period covered by this report and the related OTS requirements to be adequately capitalized and well capitalized.  As of March 31, 2006, the Bank met the capital ratios required to be considered well capitalized.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

 

Management believes that there have been no material changes in the Company’s quantitative and qualitative information about market risk since December 31, 2005. For a complete discussion of the Company’s quantitative and qualitative market risk, see “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk” in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15-d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”) have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries would be made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report was being prepared.  Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

 (b)  Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date, nor any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such controls requiring corrective actions.  As a result, no corrective actions were taken.

 

PART II.                                                OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.           Legal Proceedings

 

The Company is not involved in any legal proceedings other than those occurring in the ordinary course of business, except for the “James Baker v. Century Financial, et al” which was discussed in the Company’s December 31, 2005 Form 10-K.  Management believes that none of these legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company.

 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

 

There were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
