Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
PCB Bancorp (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiary, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a bank holding company whose subsidiary is Pacific City Bank (the “Bank”). The Company changed its corporate name from “Pacific City Financial Corporation” to “PCB Bancorp” in July 2019. The Bank is a single operating segment that operates 11 full-service branches in Los Angeles and Orange counties, California, one full-service branch in each of Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey and Bayside, New York, and 10 loan production offices (“LPOs”) in Irvine, Artesia and Los Angeles, California; Annandale, Virginia; Chicago, Illinois; Atlanta, Georgia; Bellevue, Washington; Aurora, Colorado; Carrollton, Texas; and New York, New York. The Bank offers a broad range of loans, deposits, and other products and services predominantly to small and middle market businesses and individuals.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X and other SEC rules and regulations for reporting on the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed by the Company with the SEC. The December 31, 2019 balance sheet presented herein has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC, but does not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PCB Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and for the three and three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company include its wholly owned subsidiary.
Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are based upon GAAP and conform to predominant practices within the banking industry. The Company has not made any significant changes in its critical accounting policies from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are subject to change and such change could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
10
Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were no significant accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company that became effective.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
The following is recently issued accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company that has not yet been adopted:
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The amendments in this ASU require that entities change the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model. Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. It includes financial assets such as loan receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for public business entities that are SEC filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. In 2019, the FASB amended this ASU, which delays the effective date to 2023 for certain SEC filers that are Smaller Reporting Companies, which would apply to the Company. The Company plans to adopt this ASU at the delayed effective date of January 1, 2023.
Note 2 - Fair Value Measurements
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value including a three-level valuation hierarchy, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The three-level fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are defined as follows:
| • | Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. |

| • | Level 2: Significant 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. |

| • | Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. |

Fair value is measured on a recurring basis for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Additionally, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to evaluate certain assets or liabilities for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company records securities available-for-sale at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain other assets, such as loans held-for-sale, impaired loans, servicing assets and other real estate owned (“OREO”) are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Non-recurring fair value measurements typically involve assets that are periodically evaluated for impairment and for which any impairment is recorded in the period in which the re-measurement is performed. The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:
Investment securities: The fair values of securities available-for-sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2). Management reviews the valuation techniques and assumptions used by the provider and determines that the provider uses widely accepted valuation techniques based on observable market inputs appropriate for the type of security being measured. Securities held-to-maturity are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Loans held-for-sale: The Company records SBA loans held-for-sale, residential property loans held-for-sale and certain non-residential real estate loans held-for-sale at the lower of cost or fair value, on an aggregate basis. The Company obtains fair values from a third party independent valuation service provider. Loans held-for-sale accounted for at the lower of cost or fair value are considered to be recognized at fair value when they are recorded at below cost, on an aggregate basis, and are classified as Level 2.
11
Impaired loans: The Company records fair value adjustments on certain loans that reflect (i) partial write-downs, through charge-offs or specific reserve allowances, that are based on the current appraised or market-quoted value of the underlying collateral or (ii) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value. In some cases, the properties for which market quotes or appraised values have been obtained are located in areas where comparable sales data is limited, outdated, or unavailable. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent impaired loans are obtained from real estate brokers or other third-party consultants, and are classified as Level 3.
Other real estate owned: The Company initially records OREO at fair value at the time of foreclosure. Thereafter, OREO is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value based on their subsequent changes in fair value. The fair value of OREO is generally based on recent real estate appraisals adjusted for estimated selling costs. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments may be significant and result in a Level 3 classification due to the unobservable inputs used for determining fair value. Only OREO with a valuation allowance are considered to be carried at fair value.
Servicing Assets: Servicing assets represent the value associated with servicing loans that have been sold. The fair value for servicing assets is determined through discounted cash flow analysis and utilizes discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. The fair market valuation is performed on a quarterly basis for servicing assets. Servicing assets are accounted for at the lower of cost or market value and considered to be recognized at fair value when they are recorded at below cost and are classified as Level 3.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the asset or obligation could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market value exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on financial instruments both on and off the consolidated balance sheet without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Additionally, tax consequences related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a potential effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of significant financial instruments.
Financial assets: The carrying amounts of interest-bearing deposits with other financial institutions and accrued interest receivable are considered to approximate fair value. The fair values of investment securities are generally based on matrix pricing (Level 2). The fair value of loans is estimated based on a discounted cash flow approach under an exit price notion. The fair value reflects the estimated yield that would be negotiated with a willing market participant. Because sale transactions of such loans are not readily observable, as many of the loans have unique risk characteristics, the valuation is based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). It is not practical to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and other restricted stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
Financial liabilities: The carrying amounts of accrued interest payable are considered to approximate fair value. The fair value of deposits is estimated based on discounted cash flows. The discount rate is derived from the interest rates currently being offered for similar remaining maturities. Non-maturity deposits are estimated based on their historical decaying experiences (Level 3). The fair value of FHLB advances is estimated based on discounted cash flows. The discount rate is derived from the current market rates for borrowings with similar remaining maturities (Level 2).
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments: The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material and is excluded from the table below.

The Company performs an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) assessment at least on a quarterly basis. OTTI is recognized when fair value is below the amortized cost where: (i) an entity has the intent to sell the security; (ii) it is more likely than not that an entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (iii) an entity does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security.
All individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 had an investment grade rating upon purchase. The issuers of these securities have not established any cause for default on these securities and various rating agencies have reaffirmed their long-term investment grade status as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. These securities have fluctuated in value since their purchase dates as market interest rates fluctuated. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. The Company determined that the investment securities with unrealized losses for twelve months or more are not other-than-temporary impaired, and, therefore, no impairment was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Allowance for Loan Losses
Changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments from the COVID-19 pandemic affected the potential collectability of the loan portfolio, including the condition of various market segments, and has resulted in an additional allowance for loan losses of $2.7 million at March 31, 2020.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company classifies loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as current financial information, historical payment experience, collateral adequacy, credit documentation, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans in regards to credit risk. This analysis typically includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial property and commercial and industrial loans, and is performed on an ongoing basis as new information is obtained. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Pass - Loans classified as pass include non-homogeneous loans not meeting the risk ratings defined below and smaller, homogeneous loans not assessed on an individual basis.
Special Mention - Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in the deterioration of repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard - Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or repayment in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
The following table presents the risk categories for the recorded investment in loans by portfolio segment as of dates indicated:

22
Impaired Loans
Loans are considered impaired in the following cases: (i) the loan is on nonaccrual, (ii) when principal or interest payments on the loan have been contractually past due for 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well-collateralized and in the process of collection, (iii) the loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) where terms not typically granted by the Company were offered to the borrower, (iv) when current information or events make it unlikely to collect the loan balance in full according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, (v) there is a deterioration in the borrower’s financial condition that raises uncertainty as to timely collection of either principal or interest, or (vi) full payment of both principal and interest of the loan according to the original contractual terms is in doubt.
The following table presents loans individually evaluated for impairment by portfolio segment as of the dates indicated. The recorded investment presents customer balances net of any partial charge-offs recognized on the loans and net of any deferred fees and costs.

Accommodations Related to Loan Modification from the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted and, among other things, provided financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the CARES Act, any modifications made from March 1, 2020 to the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the 60th day after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency declared by the President to borrowers whose loan status were current prior to any relief are not treated as TDRs.
As such, these loans would not be considered restructured for the purpose of risk-based capital rules, nor would they be reported as past due or nonaccrual during the period of the deferral for those loans. The modification completed during the three months ended March 31, 2020 were immaterial.

| Total | $ | 16,191 | $ | 1,975 |

Loans held-for-sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. When a determination is made at the time of commitment to originate as held-for-investment, it is the Company’s intent to hold these loans to maturity or for the “foreseeable future,” subject to periodic reviews under the Company’s management evaluation processes, including asset/liability management and credit risk management. When the Company subsequently changes its intent to hold certain loans, the loans are transferred to held-for-sale at the lower of cost or fair value. Certain loans are transferred to held-for-sale with write-downs to allowance for loan losses.
Note 5 - Servicing Assets

Note 6 - Operating Leases
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” and all subsequent ASUs that are related to Topic 842. As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted this ASU using the optional transition method with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings without restating prior financial statements for comparable amounts. As a result, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and liabilities of $9.6 million and $10.6 million, respectively, with a cumulative effect adjustment of $53 thousand to retained earnings at the date of adoption. The Company made an election to include both the lease and non-lease components as a single component and account for it as a lease.
The Company’s operating leases are for its headquarters office spaces, and retail branch and LPO locations. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years. The exercise of lease renewal option is at the Company’s sole discretion. Certain leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and lease expenses for these leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. None of the Company’s lease agreements contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company also leases certain equipment, such as copy machines and scanners, but they are determined to be immaterial.

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial commitments to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial commitments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Those instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit, and interest rate risk not recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding financial commitments whose contractual amount represents credit risk:
| ($ in thousands) | March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |
| Commitments to extend credit | $ | 177,787 | $ | 171,608 |
| Standby letters of credit | 3,350 | 3,300 |
| Commercial letters of credit | 483 | 292 |
| Total | $ | 181,620 | $ | 175,200 |

The Company’s exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for the loans reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Company maintained reserve for off-balance sheet items of $292 thousand and $301 thousand, respectively, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, in Accrued Interest Payable and Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Litigation
The Company is involved in various matters of litigation, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of pending matters of litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental and societal responses thereto, have had a severe impact on recent global economic and market conditions, including significant disruption of, and volatility in, financial markets; global supply chain disruptions; and the institution of social distancing and shelter-in-place requirements that have resulted in temporary closures of many businesses, lost revenues, and increased unemployment throughout the U.S., but also specifically in California, where most of the Company’s operations and a large majority of its customers are located. These conditions have impacted and are expected in the future to impact its business, results of operations, and financial condition negatively.
32
Note 13 - Regulatory Matters
Under the final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (“Basel III rules”), the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. Management believes as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject to. 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 as well, all of which would have exceeded the “well-capitalized” level had the Company been subject to separate capital minimums. The Company and the Bank’s capital conservation buffer was 8.71% and 8.47%, respectively, as of March 31, 2020, and 8.90% and 8.71%, respectively, as of December 31, 2019. Unrealized gain or loss on securities available-for-sale is not included in computing regulatory capital. The following table presents the regulatory capital amounts and ratios for the Company and the Bank as of dates indicated:

The California Financial Code provides that a bank may not make a cash distribution to its shareholders in excess of the lesser of the bank’s undivided profits or the bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years less the amount of any distribution made to the bank’s shareholder during the same period. As a California corporation, the Company is subject to the limitations of California law, which allows a corporation to distribute cash or property to shareholders, including a dividend or repurchase or redemption of shares, if the corporation meets either a retained earnings test or a “balance sheet” test. Under the retained earnings test, the Company may make a distribution from retained earnings to the extent that its retained earnings exceed the sum of (a) the amount of the distribution plus (b) the amount, if any, of dividends in arrears on shares with preferential dividend rights. The Company may also make a distribution if, immediately after the distribution, the value of its assets equals or exceeds the sum of (a) its total liabilities plus (b) the liquidation preference of any shares which have a preference upon dissolution over the rights of shareholders receiving the distribution. Indebtedness is not considered a liability if the terms of such indebtedness provide that payment of principal and interest thereon are to be made only if, and to the extent that, a distribution to shareholders could be made under the balance sheet test.
The Federal Reserve, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and the California Department of Business Oversight (the “CDBO”) periodically examine the Company’s business, including compliance with laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a banking agency were to determine that the Company’s financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of any of the Company’s operations had become unsatisfactory, or that the Company was in violation of any law or regulation, they may take a number of different remedial actions as they deem appropriate. These actions 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 Company’s capital, to restrict growth, to assess civil money penalties, to fine or remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate the Company’s deposit insurance and place the Company into receivership or conservatorship.
On April 30, 2019, the FDIC, the CDBO and the Bank entered into a stipulation consenting to the issuance of a consent order (the “Order”) relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML. The Order requires, among other things, that the Bank correct all violations found in the prior examination and to improve its process to better identify and monitor accounts and transactions that pose a greater than normal risk for compliance with BSA/AML. The Order also requires the Board of Directors of the Bank to increase its oversight of the Bank’s compliance with BSA/AML rules and regulations. In addition, the Bank is to ensure that the BSA/AML compliance program is managed by a qualified officer with sufficient experience and resources necessary to administer an effective BSA/AML compliance program, and to seek prior FDIC and CDBO non-objection to a change in such officer or the officer in charge of Office of Foreign Assets Control compliance matters, or material changes to their responsibilities. Further, the Order requires that the Bank develop and maintain an effective BSA/AML compliance program, monitoring mechanisms, validation of risk rating and suspicious activity monitoring, and training programs for staff. Further, the Bank must review and enhance its BSA/AML risk assessment and customer due diligence, complete a BSA/AML staffing assessment and conduct a “look back” to more highly scrutinize certain transactions that occurred during a six-month period in 2018 to determine if any suspicious activity requiring reporting went undetected. Finally, the Bank must provide periodic reports of progress to the FDIC and CDBO and provide for independent testing of the overall compliance program to ensure continued compliance, and seek prior FDIC and CDBO non-objection to the establishment of any new branches or other offices, or introduction of new delivery channels, products, services, or lines of business.
Subsequent to the Order, the Bank implemented many actions to respond to the requirements of the Order and submitted all required reports to the FDIC and CDBO. Recently, the FDIC and CDBO have raised concerns with the depth of the “look back” and continued turnover in the Bank’s BSA department, and management is reviewing both concerns in detail and intends to address them. Even though the Company believes that the Bank has addressed many of items under the Order, it will take some time to address, to the satisfaction of the regulators, all of the specific issues unique to the Bank’s operation. While management is confident that all provisions of the Order will be complied with over time, compliance with and satisfaction of the Order will be determined in the sole discretion of the FDIC and CDBO.

Note 14 - Revenue Recognition
Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as gain or loss associated with mortgage servicing assets and financial guarantees are also not within the scope. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest income such as deposit related fees, interchange fees, and merchant related income. Noninterest income considered to be within the scope of Topic 606 is discussed below.
Service charges and fees on deposits: Deposit account service charges consist of monthly service fees, account analysis fees, non-sufficient funds (“NSF”) charges and other deposit related fees. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. NSF charges, and other deposit account service charges are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time as incurred.
Debit card fees: When customers use their debit cards to pay merchants for goods or services, the Company retains a fee from the funds collected from the related deposit account and transfers the remaining funds to the payment network for remittance to the merchant. The performance obligation to the merchant is satisfied and the fee is recognized at the point in time when the funds are collected and transferred to the payment network.
Gain (loss) on sale of other real estate owned: The Company’s performance obligation for sale of OREO is the transfer of title and ownership rights of the OREO to the buyer, which occurs at the settlement date when the sale proceeds are received and income is recognized.
Wire transfer fees and other service charges: Wire transfer fees and other service charges are transaction based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time as incurred.
The following table presents revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 for the periods indicated:

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the major factors that influenced the Company’s results of operations and financial condition as of and for the three and three months ended March 31, 2020. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes (unaudited) thereto set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and general practices within the banking industry. Within these financial statements, certain financial information contains approximate measurements of financial effects of transactions and impacts at the consolidated statements of financial condition dates and the Company’s results of operations for the reporting periods. As certain accounting policies require significant estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the Company has established critical accounting policies to facilitate making the judgment necessary to prepare financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies are described in Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements and in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Executive Summary
Although the Company’s performance was impacted by the initial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company has responded to its challenges by decisively taking a number of steps to protect the safety of its employees and to support its customers. The Company enabled employees to work remotely and established social distancing procedures within its premises for both employees and customers. The Company has helped its customers with loan payment deferrals and the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The Company believes with its substantial liquidity position, strong capital base with the Bank's common equity tier 1 risk-based capital of 15.3%, loan portfolio diversification, and conservative underwriting practices, the Company should be able to proactively resolve the challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic that the Company is likely to face in the coming quarters.
Net income was $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 45.6%, from $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in net interest income and noninterest income, as well as increases in provision for loan losses and noninterest expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.9 million primarily due to an adjustment made to the qualitative factors in the incurred credit loss model related to an increase in economic uncertainty from the COVID-19 pandemic. Diluted earnings per common share was $0.23 and $0.40, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Total assets were $1.80 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $53.6 million, or 3.1%, from $1.75 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to increases in total cash and cash equivalents and loans held-for-sale.
Total deposits were $1.48 billion at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 0.1%, from $1.48 billion at December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in time deposits, partially offset by increases in noninterest-bearing demand accounts, and savings, NOW and money market accounts.

Results of Operations
Net Interest Income
A principal component of the Company’s earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets is referred to as the net interest margin. The net interest spread is the yield on average interest earning assets less the cost of average interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income is affected by changes in the balances of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and changes in the yields earned on interest earning assets and the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.

| Interest on deposits | 4,992 | 5,665 | (673 | ) | (11.9 | )% |
| Interest on borrowings | 102 | 134 | (32 | ) | (23.9 | )% |
| Total interest expense | 5,094 | 5,799 | (705 | ) | (12.2 | )% |
| Net interest income | $ | 16,566 | $ | 17,153 | $ | (587 | ) | (3.4 | )% |

Net interest income decreased primarily due to a 61 basis point decrease in average yield on interest-earning assets, and a 23.0% increase in average balance of savings, NOW and money market deposits, partially offset by a 28 basis point decrease in average cost on interest-bearing liabilities, a 5.0% increase in average balance of interest-earning assets, a 6.8% decrease in average balance of time deposits and a 16.5% decrease in average balance of other borrowings.
Interest and fees on loans decreased primarily due to a 69 basis point decrease in average yield, partially offset by a 8.4% increase in average balance. The decrease in average yield was primarily due to the lower market rates. The Wall Street Journal prime rate decreased to 3.25% during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 5.50% at March 31, 2019. The increase in average balance was primarily due to organic loan growth.
The Company portfolio included variable rate loans of $800.4 million, or 55.2% of total loans held-for-investment, with a weighted-average contractual rate of 4.41% at March 31, 2020. During March 2020, $632.4 million, or 79.0%, of variable rate loans were repriced down to the current market rates. These loans had a weighted-average contract rates of 3.99% and 5.42%, respectively, at March 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020. Total of $152.5 million, or 19.1%, of variable rate loans, which had not repriced in March 2020, were scheduled to reprice on April 1, 2020. These loans were primarily SBA commercial property and SBA commercial term loans, and had a weighted average contractual rate of 6.10% at March 31, 2020.
40
Interest on investment securities decreased primarily due to a 29.2% decrease in average balance and 46 basis point decrease in average yield. The decrease in average balance was primarily due to a sale of investment securities of $32.8 million in December 2019. The decrease in average yield was primarily due to new investment securities purchased under the lower market rates during the past 12-month period and the sale of securities available-for-sale with higher book yields. During the past 12-month period, the Company purchased $17.5 million of investment securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, yield on total investment securities was 2.19% and 2.65%, respectively.
Interest income on other interest-earning assets decreased primarily due to a 112 basis point decrease in average yield, partially offset by a 13.0% increase in average balance. The decrease in average yield was primarily due to the lower market rates. The increase in average balance was primarily due to placing higher balances into the interest-bearing account at the Federal Reserve Bank as a part of the Company’s strategic decision to increase its liquidity level by increasing FHLB advances to proactively manage its liquidity position in the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, yield on total other interest-earning assets was 1.55% and 2.67%, respectively.
Interest expense on deposits decreased primarily due to a 28 basis point decrease in average cost of interest-bearing deposits and a 6.8% decrease in average balance of time deposits, partially offset by a 23.0% increase in savings, NOW and money market accounts. The decrease in average cost was primarily due to the lower market rates. The decrease in average balance of time deposits was primarily due to a lower level of renewals of matured time deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to the lower market rates. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, average cost on total interest-bearing deposits was 1.78% and 2.06%, respectively, and average cost on total deposits were 1.34% and 1.61%, respectively.
Interest expense on borrowings decreased primarily due to a lower average balance of FHLB advances; however, the Company increased total FHLB advances to $80.0 million at March 31, 2020 as a part of the Company’s liquidity management.
Provision (Reversal) for Loan Losses
Provision (reversal) for loan losses was $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared with $(85) thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Additional provision for loan losses was primarily due to an adjustment made to the qualitative factors in the incurred credit loss model related to an increase in economic uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic and net charge-offs of $602 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
See further discussion in “Allowance for Loan Losses.”
Noninterest Income
Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
The following table presents the components of noninterest income for the periods indicated:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | Amount Change | Percentage Change |
| ($ in thousands) | 2020 | 2019 |
| Service charges and fees on deposits | $ | 390 | $ | 364 | $ | 26 | 7.1 | % |
| Loan servicing income | 554 | 631 | (77 | ) | (12.2 | )% |
| Gain on sale of loans | 725 | 1,120 | (395 | ) | (35.3 | )% |
| Other income | 357 | 294 | 63 | 21.4 | % |
| Total noninterest income | $ | 2,026 | $ | 2,409 | $ | (383 | ) | (15.9 | )% |

Service charges and fees increased primarily due to an increase in the balance of transaction based deposit accounts.
Loan servicing income decreased primarily due to an increase in servicing asset amortization from a higher prepayment speed and a lower balance of underlying loans being serviced for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Underlying loans being serviced at March 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled $478.7 million and $505.4 million, respectively.
Gain on sale of loans decreased primarily due to a decrease in sales volume due to a lower level of premium in the secondary market. The Company sold SBA loans of $11.7 million with a gain of $704 thousand and residential property loans of $2.1 million with a gain of $21 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company sold SBA loans of $21.2 million with a gain of $1.1 million and residential property loans of $2.4 million with a gain of $16 thousand.
Other income includes wire transfer fees of $128 thousand and $109 thousand, respectively, and debit card interchange fees of $69 thousand and $65 thousand, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Noninterest Expense
Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
The following table presents the components of noninterest expense for the periods indicated:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | Amount Change | Percentage Change |
| ($ in thousands) | 2020 | 2019 |
| Salaries and employee benefits | $ | 6,551 | $ | 6,622 | $ | (71 | ) | (1.1 | )% |
| Occupancy and equipment | 1,380 | 1,313 | 67 | 5.1 | % |
| Professional fees | 797 | 758 | 39 | 5.1 | % |
| Marketing and business promotion | 179 | 228 | (49 | ) | (21.5 | )% |
| Data processing | 358 | 318 | 40 | 12.6 | % |
| Director fees and expenses | 221 | 189 | 32 | 16.9 | % |
| Regulatory assessments | 219 | 116 | 103 | 88.8 | % |
| Other expenses | 862 | 745 | 117 | 15.7 | % |
| Total noninterest expense | $ | 10,567 | $ | 10,289 | $ | 278 | 2.7 | % |

Salaries and employee benefits decreased primarily due to a decrease in bonus accrual for the three months ended March 31, 2020, partially offset by overall increases in salaries and other employee benefits from the hiring of new experienced employees with higher salaries in order to enhance the controls and processes on BSA/AML compliance. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 259 at March 31, 2020 compared to 252 at March 31, 2019.
Occupancy and equipment expense increased primarily due to an increase in lease expense from an additional office space for the Company’s headquarters, partially offset by a decrease in depreciation on leasehold improvement from the relocation of a branch from Fort Lee, New Jersey to Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey.
Professional fees increased primarily due to increases in audit and legal fees, partially offset by decreases in expenses related to the BSA/AML compliance enhancements.
Marketing and business promotion expense decreased primarily due to decreases in advertisement and business development activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Data processing expense increased primarily due to the increased processing costs for a greater number of accounts and transactions.
Director fees and expenses increased primarily due to a severance payment of $45 thousand for a former director who passed away during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Regulatory assessment expense increased primarily due to an increase in assessment rate from the consent order relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance.
Other expense increased primarily due to a growth in operations. Other expenses primarily included $380 thousand and $360 thousand in office expense, and $147 thousand and $133 thousand in armed guard expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $1.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, and the effective tax rate was 30.4% and 29.9%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Financial Condition
Investment Securities
The Company’s investment strategy aims to maximize earnings while maintaining liquidity in securities with minimal credit risk. The types and maturities of securities purchased are primarily based on current and projected liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions. Investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale in accordance with GAAP. Investment securities that the Company has the ability and the intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. All other securities are classified as available-for-sale. Investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at their estimated fair values with the changes in fair values recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, as a component of shareholders’ equity.
The following table presents the amortized cost and fair value of the investment securities portfolio as of the dates indicated:
| March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |
| ($ in thousands) | Amortized Cost | Fair Value | Unrealized Gain (Loss) | Amortized Cost | Fair Value | Unrealized Gain (Loss) |
| Securities available-for-sale: |
| U.S. government agency and U.S. government sponsored enterprise securities: |
| Residential mortgage-backed securities | $ | 43,917 | $ | 44,965 | $ | 1,048 | $ | 38,793 | $ | 38,738 | $ | (55 | ) |
| Residential collateralized mortgage obligations | 39,509 | 39,396 | (113 | ) | 44,115 | 43,894 | (221 | ) |
| SBA loan pool securities | 13,327 | 13,431 | 104 | 14,179 | 14,152 | (27 | ) |
| Municipal bonds | 758 | 776 | 18 | 764 | 782 | 18 |
| Total securities available-for-sale | $ | 97,511 | $ | 98,568 | $ | 1,057 | $ | 97,851 | $ | 97,566 | $ | (285 | ) |
| Securities held-to-maturity: |
| U.S. government agency and U.S. government sponsored enterprise residential mortgage-backed securities | 14,779 | 15,167 | 388 | 15,215 | 15,204 | (11 | ) |
| Municipal bonds | 4,932 | 5,282 | 350 | 4,939 | 5,276 | 337 |
| Total securities held-to-maturity | $ | 19,711 | $ | 20,449 | $ | 738 | $ | 20,154 | $ | 20,480 | $ | 326 |

Total investment securities were $118.3 million at March 31, 2020, an increase of $559 thousand, or 0.5%, from $117.7 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to purchases of $7.5 million and an increase in fair value of securities available-for-sale of $1.3 million, partially offset by principal paydowns of $8.1 million and net premium amortization of $189 thousand.
The Company performs an OTTI assessment at least on a quarterly basis. OTTI is recognized when fair value is below the amortized cost where: (i) an entity has the intent to sell the security; (ii) it is more likely than not that an entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (iii) an entity does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security.
All individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 had an investment grade rating upon purchase. The issuers of these securities have not established any cause for default on these securities and various rating agencies have reaffirmed their long-term investment grade status as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. These securities have fluctuated in value since their purchase dates as market interest rates fluctuated. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. The Company determined that the investment securities with unrealized losses for twelve months or more are not other-than-temporary impaired, and, therefore, no impairment was recognized during the three and three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Loans Held-For-Sale
Loans held-for-sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. When a determination is made at the time of commitment to originate as held-for-investment, it is the Company’s intent to hold these loans to maturity or for the foreseeable future, subject to periodic reviews under the Company’s management evaluation processes, including asset/liability management and credit risk management. When the Company subsequently changes its intent to hold certain loans, the loans are transferred to held-for-sale at the lower of cost or fair value. Certain loans are transferred to held-for-sale with write-downs to allowance for loan losses.
The following table presents a composition of loans held-for-sale as of the dates indicated:
| ($ in thousands) | March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |
| Real estate loans: |
| Residential property | $ | 1,997 | $ | 760 |
| SBA property | 12,983 | 150 |
| Commercial and industrial loans: |
| SBA commercial term | 1,211 | 1,065 |
| Total | $ | 16,191 | $ | 1,975 |

Loans held-for-sale were $16.2 million at March 31, 2020, an increase of $14.2 million, or 719.8%, from $2.0 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to new funding of $26.7 million and a loan transferred from loans held-for-investment of $1.4 million, partially offset by sales of $13.8 million. The sales volume decline was primary due to a lower level of premium in the secondary market during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Loans Held-For-Investment and Allowance for Loan Losses

| Allowance for loan losses | (16,674 | ) | (14,380 | ) |
| Net loans held-for-investment | $ | 1,434,364 | $ | 1,436,451 |

Loans held-for-investment, net of deferred loan costs (fees) were $1.45 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $207 thousand from $1.45 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to new funding of $63.9 million and advances of $37.7 million, partially offset by paydowns and payoffs of $99.2 million.
SBA Paycheck Protection Program
Since the launch of PPP, the Company has extended 930 PPP loans totaling $104 million as of April 24, 2020 under the initial funding of the PPP. With the additional funding just announced and the SBA accepting additional applications as of April 27, 2020, the Company will continue to accept additional applications as long as funding remains available.
45
Allowance for loan losses
The Company’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses includes a general allowance for performing loans, which are grouped based on similar characteristics, and a specific allowance for individual impaired loans or loans considered by management to be in a high-risk category. General allowances are established based on a number of factors, including historical loss rates, an assessment of portfolio trends and conditions, accrual status and economic conditions.
For any loan held for investment, a specific allowance may be assigned based on an impairment analysis. Loans are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The amount of impairment is based on an analysis of the most probable source of repayment, including the present value of the loan’s expected future cash flows, the estimated market value or the fair value of the underlying collateral. Interest income on impaired loans is accrued as earned, unless the loan is placed on nonaccrual status.
Individual loans considered to be uncollectible are charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Factors used in determining the amount and timing of charge-offs on loans include consideration of the loan type, length of delinquency, sufficiency of collateral value, lien priority and the overall financial condition of the borrower. Collateral value is determined using updated appraisals and/or other market comparable information. Charge-offs are generally taken on loans once the impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary. Recoveries on loans previously charged off are added to the allowance for loan losses. Annualized net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans held-for-investment were 0.17% and (0.02)%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $16.7 million and $14.4 million, respectively, and represented 1.15% and 0.99%, respectively, to loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The increases in allowance for loan losses to loans held-for-investment was primarily due to an adjustment made to the qualitative factors in the incurred credit loss model related to an increase in economic uncertainty from the COVID-19 pandemic during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments from the COVID-19 pandemic affected the potential collectability of the loan portfolio, including the condition of various market segments, and has resulted in an additional allowance for loan losses of $2.7 million.
The Company analyzes the loan portfolio, including delinquencies, concentrations, and risk characteristics, at least quarterly in order to assess the overall level of the allowance for loan losses. The Company also relies on internal and external loan review procedures to further assess individual loans and loan pools, and economic data for overall industry and geographic trends.
In determining the allowance and the related provision for loan losses, the Company considers three principal elements: (i) valuation allowances based upon probable incurred losses identified during the review of impaired commercial and industrial, commercial property and construction loans, (ii) allocations, by loan classes, on loan portfolios based on historical loan loss experience and (iii) qualitative factors. Provisions for loan losses are charged to operations to record changes to the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate.

Nonperforming Loans and Nonperforming Assets
The following table presents a summary of total non-performing assets as of the dates indicated:
| ($ in thousands) | March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | Amount Change | Percentage Change |
| Nonaccrual loans |

| Other consumer loans | 10 | 48 | (38 | ) | (79.2 | )% |
| Total nonaccrual loans | 4,083 | 2,537 | 1,546 | 60.9 | % |
| Loans past due 90 days or more still on accrual | — | 287 | (287 | ) | (100.0 | )% |
| Total nonperforming loans | 4,083 | 2,824 | 1,259 | 44.6 | % |
| Other real estate owned | 376 | — | 376 | — | % |
| Total nonperforming assets | $ | 4,459 | $ | 2,824 | $ | 1,635 | 57.9 | % |
| Nonperforming loans to loans held-for-investment | 0.28 | % | 0.19 | % |
| Nonperforming assets to total assets | 0.25 | % | 0.16 | % |

The increase in total nonaccrual loans was primarily due to loans placed on nonaccrual status of $1.7 million, partially offset by paydowns and payoffs of $124 thousand and charge-offs of $48 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due, unless management believes the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Past due loans may or may not be adequately collateralized, but collection efforts are continuously pursued. Loans may be restructured by management when a borrower experiences changes to their financial condition, causing an inability to meet the original repayment terms, and where management believe the borrower will eventually overcome those circumstances and repay the loan in full. Additional income of approximately $51 thousand would have been recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020, had these loans been paid in accordance with their original terms throughout the periods indicated.
Loan Segmentation by Business Type That May Experience More Direct Impact from the COVID-19 Pandemic
As the COVID-19 pandemic has begun to impact all aspects of the economy, the Company has identified the following loan segments that may experience a more direct impact from it:

Troubled Debt Restructurings
Loans that the Bank modifies or restructures where the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties and makes a concession to the borrower in the form of changes in the amortization terms, reductions in the interest rates, the acceptance of interest only payments and, in limited cases, reductions in the outstanding loan balances are classified as TDRs. TDRs are loans modified for the purpose of alleviating temporary impairments to the borrower’s financial condition. A workout plan between a borrower and the Bank is designed to provide a bridge for the cash flow shortfalls in the near term. If the borrower works through the near term issues, in most cases, the original contractual terms of the loan will be reinstated. The following table presents the composition of loans that were modified as TDRs by portfolio segment as of the dates indicated:
| March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |

Accommodations Related to Loan Modification from the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted and, among other things, provided financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the CARES Act, any modifications made from March 1, 2020 to the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the 60th day after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency declared by the President to borrowers whose loan status were current prior to any relief are not treated as TDRs.
As such, these loans would not be considered restructured for the purpose of risk-based capital rules, nor would they be reported as past due or nonaccrual during the period of the deferral for those loans. The following table presents a summary of loans with short-term modifications through payment deferrals in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as of April 24, 2020:
| April 24, 2020 |
| ($ in thousands) | Number of Loans | Unpaid Principal Balance |

Deposits
The Bank gathers deposits primarily through its branch locations. The Bank offers a variety of deposit products including demand deposits accounts, NOW and money market accounts, savings accounts and time deposits.
Total deposits were $1.48 billion at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 0.1%, from $1.48 billion at December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in time deposits of $47.8 million, partially offset by increases in noninterest-bearing demand accounts of $34.0 million and savings, NOW and money market accounts of $11.9 million.
The increase in noninterest-bearing demand accounts was primarily due to an increase in retail accounts.
The increase in savings, NOW and money market accounts was primarily due to increases in retail accounts, partially offset by decreases in brokered money market accounts. Brokered money market accounts totaled $10.0 million and $30.0 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The decrease in time deposits was primarily due to decreases in retail time deposits, partially offset by increases in brokered time deposits and time deposits from internet rate service providers. The decrease in retail time deposits was primarily due to matured and closed accounts of $236.1 million, partially offset by new accounts of $33.7 million and renewals of the matured accounts of $132.9 million. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and decreases in market rates, the Company experienced a lower level of renewals of maturing time deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Brokered time deposits totaled $74.5 million and $62.4 million, respectively, and time deposits from internet rate service providers totaled $5.4 million and none, respectively, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company also maintained time deposits from California State Treasurer of $90.0 million at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total deposits were comprised of 26.7% and 24.3%, respectively, of noninterest-bearing demand accounts, 25.3% and 24.5%, respectively, of savings, NOW and money market accounts, and 48.0% and 51.2%, respectively, of time deposits.
Deposits from certain officers, directors and their related interests with which they are associated held by the Company were $2.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively, at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
The following table presents the maturity of time deposits as of the dates indicated:
| ($ in thousands) | Three Months or Less | Three to Six Months | Six Months to One Year | One to Three Years | Over Three Years | Total |

Shareholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital
Capital Resources
Shareholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends paid on common stock and preferred stock, sales and redemptions of common stock and preferred stock, and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income caused primarily by fluctuations in unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, on securities available-for-sale.
Shareholders’ equity was $224.1 million at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 1.2%, from $226.8 million at December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to repurchase of common stock of $6.5 million and dividends declared on common stock of $1.5 million, partially offset by net income of $3.6 million and a positive fair value change in securities available-for-sale of $948 thousand.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking regulators. The Company is not currently subject to separate minimum capital measurements under the definition of a “Small Bank Holding Company.” At such time as the Company reaches the $3 billion asset level, it will again be subject to capital measurements independent of the Bank.
Federal banking agencies also require a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% in addition to the ratios required to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the prompt corrective action (“PCA”) regulations. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for the PCA, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios.
The following table presents a summary of the capital requirements applicable to the Bank in order to be considered “well-capitalized” from a regulatory perspective, as well as the Bank’s capital ratios as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. For comparison purpose, the Company’s ratios are included as well, all of which would have exceeded the “well-capitalized” level had the Company been subject to separate capital minimums.
| PCB Bancorp | Pacific City Bank | Minimum Regulatory Requirements | Well Capitalized Requirements (Bank) |
| March 31, 2020 |
| Common tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 15.53 | % | 15.28 | % | 4.5 | % | 6.5 | % |
| Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 16.71 | % | 16.47 | % | 8.0 | % | 10.0 | % |
| Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 15.53 | % | 15.28 | % | 6.0 | % | 8.0 | % |
| Tier 1 capital (to average assets) | 12.57 | % | 12.37 | % | 4.0 | % | 5.0 | % |
| December 31, 2019 |
| Common tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 15.87 | % | 15.68 | % | 4.5 | % | 6.5 | % |
| Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 16.90 | % | 16.71 | % | 8.0 | % | 10.0 | % |
| Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | 15.87 | % | 15.68 | % | 6.0 | % | 8.0 | % |
| Tier 1 capital (to average assets) | 13.23 | % | 13.06 | % | 4.0 | % | 5.0 | % |

The Company and the Bank’s capital conservation buffer was 8.71% and 8.47%, respectively, as of March 31, 2020, and 8.90% and 8.71%, respectively, as of December 31, 2019.
51
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the measure of ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while at the same time meeting operating cash flow and capital and strategic cash flow needs, all at a reasonable cost. The Company continuously monitors liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all short-term and long-term cash requirements, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of the Company’s shareholders.
The Company’s liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and liabilities and access to alternative sources of funds. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions, federal funds sold, and unpledged securities available-for-sale. Liquid liabilities may include core deposits, federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and other borrowings. Other sources of liquidity include the sale of loans, the ability to acquire additional national market noncore deposits, additional collateralized borrowings such as FHLB advances and Federal Reserve Discount Window, and the issuance of debt securities and preferred or common securities.
The Company’s short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily to fund on-going operations, including payment of interest on deposits and debt, extensions of credit to borrowers, capital expenditures and shareholder dividends. These liquidity requirements are met primarily through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in loan and investment securities portfolios, increases in debt financing and other borrowings, and increases in customer deposits.
Integral to the Company’s liquidity management is the administration of borrowings. To the extent the Company is unable to obtain sufficient liquidity through core deposits, the Company seeks to meet its liquidity needs through wholesale funding or other borrowings on either a short or long-term basis.
The Company had $80.0 million and $20.0 million of outstanding FHLB advances at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, the Company had $356.6 million and $404.8 million of additional borrowing capacity with FHLB as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company also had $35.0 million of available unused unsecured federal funds lines at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
In addition, available unused secured borrowing capacity from Federal Reserve Discount Window at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $39.4 million and $37.9 million, respectively. Federal Reserve Discount Window was collateralized by loans totaling $47.2 million and $46.1 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company’s borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve Discount Window is limited by eligible collateral. The Company also maintains relationships in the capital markets with brokers and dealers to issue time deposits and money market accounts. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total cash and cash equivalents represented 10.5% and 8.4% of total assets, respectively.
PCB Bancorp, on a stand-alone holding company basis, must provide for its own liquidity and its main source of funding is dividends from the Bank. There are statutory, regulatory and debt covenant limitations that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the holding company. Management believes that these limitations will not impact the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short- and long-term cash obligations.
52
Off-Balance Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has limited off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial commitments to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial commitments include commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit, commercial and similar letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk not recognized in the Company’s financial statements.
The Company’s exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance on these financial commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for loans reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. The following table presents outstanding financial commitments whose contractual amount represents credit risk as of the dates indicated:
| ($ in thousands) | March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |
| Commitments to extend credit | $ | 177,787 | $ | 171,608 |
| Standby letters of credit | 3,350 | 3,300 |
| Commercial letters of credit | 483 | 292 |
| Total | $ | 181,620 | $ | 175,200 |

Contractual Obligations
The following table presents supplemental information regarding total contractual obligations as of the dates indicated:
| ($ in thousands) | Within One Year | One to Three Years | Three to Five Years | Over Five Years | Total |

| Total | $ | 746,689 | $ | 35,983 | $ | 3,932 | $ | 1,352 | $ | 787,956 |

Management believes that the Company will be able to meet its contractual obligations as they come due through the maintenance of adequate cash levels. Management expects to maintain adequate cash levels through profitability, loan and securities repayment and maturity activity and continued deposit gathering activities. The Company has in place various borrowing mechanisms for both short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. Market risk occurs in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads.
Overview
Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (repricing risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay residential mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries and LIBOR (basis risk).
The Company’s Board asset liability committee (“Board ALCO”) establishes broad policy limits with respect to interest rate risk. Board ALCO establishes specific operating guidelines within the parameters of the Board of Directors’ policies. In general, The Company seeks to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the economic values of assets and liabilities. Board ALCO meets quarterly to monitor the level of interest rate risk sensitivity to ensure compliance with the Board of Directors’ approved risk limits. As discussed earlier, the Company also has a Management ALCO, which is comprised of the senior management team and Chief Executive Officer, to proactively monitor investment activities.
Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.
An asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on interest-earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, thus expanding net interest margin. Conversely, a liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on interest-earning assets, thus compressing net interest margin.
Measurement
Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the Board ALCO at least quarterly. The information reported includes period-end results and identifies any policy limits exceeded, along with an assessment of the policy limit breach and the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk.
The Company uses two approaches to model interest rate risk: Net Interest Income at Risk (“NII at Risk”), and Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”). Under NII at Risk, net interest income is modeled utilizing various assumptions for assets, liabilities, and derivatives. EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. EVE is a period end measurement.
The following table presents the projected changes in NII at Risk and EVE that would occur upon an immediate change in interest rates based on independent analysis, but without giving effect to any steps that management might take to counteract that change as of the dates indicated:
| March 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 |
| Simulated Rate Changes | Net Interest Income Sensitivity | Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity | Net Interest Income Sensitivity | Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity |
| +200 | 23.8 | % | 13.9 | % | 20.3 | % | 7.7 | % |
| +100 | 11.9 | % | 7.9 | % | 10.4 | % | 4.7 | % |

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”), as of March 31, 2020 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company’s senior management. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal claims. Management has reviewed all legal claims against the Company with counsel and have taken into consideration the views of such counsel as to the potential outcome of the claims in determining the accrued loss contingency. The Company did not have any accrued loss contingencies for legal claims at March 31, 2020. It is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses in addition to the amounts currently accrued. However, at this time, the Company is unable to estimate the range of additional losses that are reasonably possible because of a number of factors, including the fact that certain of these litigation matters are still in their early stages and involve claims for which, at this point, the Company believes have little to no merit. Management has considered these and other possible loss contingencies and does not expect the amounts to be material to the consolidated financial statements.
Item 1A - Risk Factors
The following risk factors supplement the risks described in the Company’s Form 10-K under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for its year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent filings with the SEC.
Our business, results of operations, and financial condition have been, and will likely continue to be, adversely affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental and societal responses thereto, have had a severe impact on recent global economic and market conditions, including significant disruption of, and volatility in, financial markets; global supply chain disruptions; and the institution of social distancing and shelter-in-place requirements that have resulted in temporary closures of many businesses, lost revenues, and increased unemployment throughout the United States, but also specifically in California, where all of our operations and a large majority of our customers are located.
These conditions have impacted and are expected in the future to impact-our business, results of operations, and financial condition negatively, including through lower revenue from certain of our fee-based businesses; lower net interest income resulting from lower interest rates and increased loan delinquencies; increased provisions for loan losses and unfunded loan commitments; impairments on the securities we hold; and decreased demand for certain of our products and services. Additionally, our liquidity and regulatory capital could be adversely impacted by volatility and disruptions in the capital and credit markets; deposit flows; and continued client draws on lines of credit as well as our participation in the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program. Our business operations may also be disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic. Negative impacts from these conditions also may include:
| • | Collateral securing our loans may decline in value, which could increase credit losses in our loan portfolio and increase the allowance for loan losses. |

| • | Demand for our products and services may decline, and deposit balances may decrease making it difficult to grow assets and income. |

| • | The decline in the target federal funds rate could decrease yields on our assets that exceed the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which may reduce our net interest margin. |

| • | The impact of the adoption of the CECL standard, which is highly dependent on unemployment rate forecasts over the life of our loans, could significantly increase the allowance for credit losses and decrease net income. |

While governmental authorities have taken unprecedented measures to provide economic assistance to individual households and businesses, stabilize the markets, and support economic growth, the success of these measures is unknown and they may not be sufficient to mitigate fully the negative impact of the ongoing pandemic. Further, some measures, such as a suspension of mortgage and other loan payments and foreclosures, may have a negative impact on our business, while our participation in other measures could result in reputational harm, litigation, or regulatory and government actions, proceedings, or penalties.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, particularly in California.
56
Our Traditional Service Delivery Channels may be Impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic
In light of the external COVID-19 threat, the Board of Directors and senior management are continuously monitoring the situation, providing frequent communications, and making adjustments and accommodations for both external clients and our employees. For the most part, all branches remain open to serve our customers and local communities, with modified hours and strict social distancing protocols in place as well as limiting our branches to walk-up or drive-up visits. Our customers have been encouraged to utilize branch alternatives such as using our ATMs, online banking, and mobile banking application in lieu of in-branch transactions. In addition, many employees are working remotely and travel as well as face-to-face meeting restrictions are in effect. Further, given the increase of the risk of cyber-security incidents during the pandemic, we have enhanced our cyber-security protocols. If the pandemic worsens, resurges or lasts for an extended period of time, to protect the health of the Company’s workforce and our customers, we may need to enact further precautionary measures to help minimize the risks to our employees and customers, thus potentially altering our service delivery channels and operations over a prolonged period. These changes to our traditional service delivery channels may negatively impact our customers’ experience of banking with us, result in loss of service fees, and increase costs through equipment and services needed to support a remote workforce, and therefore negatively impact our financial condition and results of operation.
Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
The following table presents share repurchase activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020:

As previously disclosed by 8-K filed on May 3, 2019, on April 30, 2019, the FDIC, the CDBO and the Bank entered into a stipulation consenting to the issuance of the Order relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML.
The Order requires, among other things, that the Bank correct all violations found in the prior examination and to improve its process to better identify and monitor accounts and transactions that pose a greater than normal risk for compliance with BSA/AML. The Order also requires the Board of Directors of the Bank to increase its oversight of the Bank’s compliance with BSA/AML rules and regulations. In addition, the Bank is to ensure that the BSA/AML compliance program is managed by a qualified officer with sufficient experience and resources necessary to administer an effective BSA/AML compliance program, and to seek prior FDIC and CDBO non-objection to a change in such officer or the officer in charge of Office of Foreign Assets Control compliance matters, or material changes to their responsibilities. Further, the Order requires that the Bank develop and maintain an effective BSA/AML compliance program, monitoring mechanisms, validation of risk rating and suspicious activity monitoring, and training programs for staff. Further, the Bank must review and enhance its BSA/AML risk assessment and customer due diligence, complete a BSA/AML staffing assessment and conduct a “look back” to more highly scrutinize certain transactions that occurred during a six-month period in 2018 to determine if any suspicious activity requiring reporting went undetected. Finally, the Bank must provide periodic reports of progress to the FDIC and CDBO and provide for independent testing of the overall compliance program to ensure continued compliance, and seek prior FDIC and CDBO non-objection to the establishment of any new branches or other offices, or introduction of new delivery channels, products, services, or lines of business.
The Order will remain in effect until terminated, modified or suspended by the FDIC and CDBO. The Bank’s Management and Board of Directors have expressed their full intention and ability to comply with all parts of the Order. The Bank began taking corrective actions prior to entry of the Order after communicating with the regulators and expects that it will be able to undertake and implement all required actions within the time periods specified in the Order. Importantly, and prior to the entry of the Order, the Bank sought and received FDIC and CDBO non-objection to hiring a new BSA officer, Susan Wahba, CAMS, who began working for the Bank on March 19, 2019, and brings significant experience in BSA/AML compliance, including as a former bank examiner and BSA/AML trainer for the FDIC, and most recently as the Chief Risk Officer for another Los Angeles area bank. Compliance with the requirements of the Order will be determined by the regulators in subsequent examinations. Subsequent to the Order, the Bank implemented many actions to respond to the requirements of the Order, and submitted all required reports to the FDIC and CDBO. Recently, the FDIC and CDBO have raised concerns with the depth of the “look back” and continued turnover in the Bank’s BSA department, and management is reviewing both concerns in detail and intends to address them. Even though the Company believes that the Bank has addressed many of the items under the Order, it will take some time to address, to the satisfaction of the regulators, all of the specific issues unique to the Bank’s operation. While management is confident that all provisions of the Order will be complied with over time, compliance with and satisfaction of the Order will be determined in the sole discretion of the FDIC and CDBO.
The Bank will incur additional non-interest expenses associated with the implementation of the required corrective actions; however, both these expenses and the Order are not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position of the Bank or the Company.

Question: What is the net total expense of the company in the March quarter of 2020, after considering share-related compensation and tax benefits, as well as the actual tax expense in thousands of dollars?

Solution:
def solution():
     #Define variables name and value
    total_share_based_compensation_expense = 194
    related_tax_benefits = 8
    actual_tax_expense = 1600

    #Do math calculation to get the answer
    net_total_expense = total_share_based_compensation_expense - related_tax_benefits + actual_tax_expense
    return net_total_expense


Answer: 1786
