We are optimistic in our outlook and expect to continue to deliver strong growth and earnings for the rest of the year and beyond,” concluded Kim.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental and societal responses thereto, have had a severe impact on global economic and market conditions. The U.S. government has enacted a number of monetary and fiscal policies to provide fiscal stimulus and relief in order to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be a challenge to public health, including the emergence of new variants, and impact global economic and market conditions, including global supply chain disruptions and high inflation.

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 them, 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, including SBA PPP loans and loan modifications related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

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

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. The increase in average yield for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to increases in net accretion of discount on loans, prepayment penalties and late-charges, partially offset by a decrease in net deferred loan fee amortization during the current quarter. Compared with the year-ago quarter, the decrease in average yield was primarily due to a decrease in overall interest rates on loans from lower market rates throughout 2021, partially offset by an increase in net accretion of discount on loans.

Investment Securities. The increases in average yield for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to a decrease in net amortization of premiums on mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.

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 increases in dividend income on Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock and interest rate on cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) account. The increases in average balance for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to an increase in deposits, partially offset by an increase in loans. The Company maintains most of its cash at the FRB account. For additional detail, please see the discussion in “Loans” and “Deposits” under the “Balance Sheet” discussion.

Interest-Bearing Deposits. The decrease in average cost for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to the decreases in market rates.

Borrowings. The increase in average cost for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to matured borrowings with lower interest rates during 2021. At March 31, 2022, the Company had a term FHLB advance of $10.0 million with an interest rate of 2.07% that matures on June 29, 2022.

Reversal for Loan Losses

Reversal for loan losses was $1.2 million for the current quarter compared with $1.5 million for the previous quarter and $1.1 million for the year-ago quarter. The reversal for the current quarter was primarily due to a decrease in qualitative adjustment factor allocations related to economic implications of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company recorded net recoveries of $8 thousand for the current quarter compared with $36 thousand for the previous quarter and $151 thousand for the year-ago quarter.

Adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment ratio(1) was 1.23%, 1.34%, and 1.74% at March 31, 2022, December 31, 2021, and March 31, 2021, respectively.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment ratio is a non-GAAP measure, which excludes SBA PPP loans from loans held-for-investment. See “Non-GAAP Measures” for reconciliation of this measure to its most comparable GAAP measure.

The increases for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to increases in salaries from the annual merit increase and number of employees increase, incentives tied to the sales of Loan Production Offices originated SBA loans, vacation accrual, and a decrease in loan origination cost, which offsets the recognition of salaries and employee benefits expense. The Company recognized a higher loan origination cost for the year-ago quarter primarily due to the SBA PPP loan production. Total loan origination cost included in salaries and employee benefits were $365 thousand, $435 thousand, and $986 thousand for the current, previous and year-ago quarters, respectively. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 256, 248 and 246 as of March 31, 2022, December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

Professional Fees. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to increased internal audit and other professional fees during the previous quarter as a part of the year-end processes. Compared with the year-ago quarter, the decrease was primarily due to a decrease in internal audit fees.

Marketing and Business Promotion. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to the year-end promotion during the previous quarter. Compared with the year-ago quarter, the increase was primarily due to more marketing activities and advertisement for the current quarter.

Director Fees and Expenses. The increase for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a new director appointed during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Regulatory Assessments. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a decrease in assessment rate, partially offset by an increase in balance sheet.

Balance Sheet (Unaudited)

Total assets were $2.20 billion at March 31, 2022, an increase of $50.0 million, or 2.3%, from $2.15 billion at December 31, 2021 and an increase of $149.1 million, or 7.3%, from $2.05 billion at March 31, 2021. The increase for the current quarter was primarily due to increases in cash and cash equivalents and securities available-for-sale, partially offset by a decrease in loans held-for-sale.

The increase in loans held-for-investment for the current quarter was primarily due to new funding of $117.9 million and advances on lines of credit of $29.2 million, partially offset by pay-downs and pay-offs of $136.4 million. SBA PPP loans of $42.4 million were paid off through regular payments or forgiveness from SBA during the current quarter.

The decrease in loans held-for-sale for the current quarter was primarily due to sales of $39.7 million, partially offset by new funding of $21.2 million.

Loan Modifications Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company had 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. Therefore, the modified loans were not considered TDRs. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no loans under modified terms related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Total loans under modified terms related to the COVID-19 pandemic totaled $19.8 million at March 31, 2021.

The Company had classified the loans that were granted modifications related to the COVID-19 pandemic in excess of 6 months on a cumulative basis as special mention or classified. Special mention and classified loans included $4.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, at March 31, 2022, $15.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2021, and $16.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively, at March 31, 2021, of the loans that were granted such modifications. The decrease in special mention loans for the current quarter was primarily due to improvements of 2 loans with an aggregated carrying value of $11.3 million.

Investment Securities

Total investment securities were $131.3 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $8.1 million, or 6.6%, from $123.2 million at December 31, 2021, and an increase of $4.2 million, or 3.3%, from $127.1 million at March 31, 2021. The increase for the current quarter was primarily due to purchases of $19.9 million, partially offset by principal pay-downs and calls of $6.2 million and net premium amortization of $135 thousand.

The increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits and retail money market accounts for the current quarter was primarily due to the overall liquid deposit market.

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity was $261.1 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $4.8 million, or 1.9%, from $256.3 million at December 31, 2021 and an increase of $20.8 million, or 8.7%, from $240.3 million at March 31, 2021. The increase for the current quarter was primarily due to net income, partially offset by cash dividends declared on common stock of $2.2 million and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Stock Repurchase

On April 8, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the date of the board meeting, which represented 775,000 shares, through September 7, 2021. The Company repurchased and retired 680,269 shares of common stock totaling $10.9 million at a weighted-average price of $15.99 per share under this program.

Emergency Capital Investment Program

On December 14, 2021, the U.S. Treasury informed the Company that the U.S Treasury has reviewed the Company’s application to receive a capital investment from the U.S Treasury under the Emergency Capital Investment Program (“ECIP”), and that the Company would be eligible to receive an ECIP investment in an amount up to $69.1 million in the form of non-dilutive Tier 1 senior perpetual preferred capital. The Company determined to accept the offer to receive the ECIP investment for the full amount. The Company expects to close the investment in the second quarter of 2022.

Established by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, the ECIP was created to encourage low- and moderate-income community financial institutions and minority depository institutions such as the Bank to augment their efforts to support small businesses and consumers in their communities.

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:

Adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment ratio

Adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment ratio is calculated by removing SBA PPP loans from loans held-for-investment from the allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment ratio calculation. The SBA launched the PPP to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The SBA guarantees 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers, and the loans are eligible to be forgiven if certain conditions are met, at which point the SBA will make payments to the Bank for the forgiven amounts. The SBA guarantee on PPP loans cannot be separated from the loan and therefore is not a separate unit of account. The Company considered the SBA guarantee in the allowance for loan losses evaluation and determined that it is not required to reserve an allowance on SBA PPP loans. Management believes this non-GAAP measure enhances comparability to prior periods and provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s credit trends.
