Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, expectations regarding the business environment in which we operate, projections of future performance, perceived opportunities in the market, and statements regarding our business strategies, objectives and vision. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “will,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “estimates” or similar expressions. With respect to any such forward-looking statements, the Company claims the protection provided for in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond the Company’s control or ability to predict. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements may differ significantly from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include: the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and capitalization; liquidity risks; risk of significant non-earning assets, and net credit losses that could occur, particularly in times of weak economic conditions or times of rising interest rates; the failure of or changes to assumptions and estimates underlying the Company’s allowances for credit losses; and regulatory risks associated with current and future regulations. For additional information concerning these and other risk factors, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2022, as such information may be updated from time to time in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q that we file with the SEC.
Due to the risks and uncertainties we face, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this Report, which speak only as of the date of this Report, or to make predictions about future performance based solely on historical financial. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by law.

Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), except for the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2021 which was from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hope Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiaries, principally Bank of Hope. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has made all adjustments, that in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be anticipated for the full year.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
The global pandemic resulting from the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) substantially and negatively impacted the United States economy and disrupted global supply chains. During the worst of the pandemic, there were temporary closures of countless businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in most states and communities. Many states have now relaxed most of the business closures and other social distancing requirements, and the economy has recovered from the worst of the pandemic. In line with this recovery, the Company experienced improvements in operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. There continues to be uncertainty around variants of the COVID-19 virus as well as the pace and sustainability of the economic recovery. It is at least reasonably possible that information which was available to the Company at the date of the financial statements will change in the near term due to the COVID-19 pandemic and that the effect of the change could be material to the financial statements. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s estimates and assumptions is uncertain.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read along with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “Codification Improvements to Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform”. ASU 2021-01 amends the scope of the recent reference rate reform guidance and clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. New optional expedients allow derivative instruments impacted by changes in the interest rate used for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment (i.e., discount transition) to qualify for certain optional relief. The new optional expedients for contract modifications and hedge accounting are expected to benefit companies, including those with certain centrally cleared derivatives affected by a discount rate transition in 2020. Amendments to the expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 captures the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 is effective immediately and can be applied retrospectively to any interim period beginning January 1, 2020 or prospectively to any new modifications in any period including or subsequent to the issuance date. ASU 2021-01 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities From Contracts With Customers”, to address diversity in practice and inconsistency related to the accounting for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The amendments require that the acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. The ASU also provides certain practical expedients for acquirers when recognizing and measuring acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts in a business combination and applies to contract assets and contract liabilities from other contracts to which the provisions of Topic 606 apply. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities should apply the amendments prospectively to business combinations that occur after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including in any interim period, for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued, and for all other entities for periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). The standard addresses the following: 1) eliminates the accounting guidance for TDRs, will require an entity to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan, 2) expands disclosures related to modifications, and 3) will require disclosure of current period gross write-offs of financing receivables within the vintage disclosures table. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years and are applied prospectively, except with respect to the recognition and measurement of TDRs, where an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method. Early adoption of the amendments in this update is permitted. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments regarding TDRs and related disclosure enhancements separately from the amendments related to vintage disclosures. The Company is assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2022-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS does not reflect the possibility of dilution that could result from the issuance of additional shares of common stock upon exercise or conversion of outstanding equity awards or convertible notes and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, convertible notes, employee stock purchase program (“ESPP”) shares, or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted to common stock that would then share in earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, stock options and restricted share awards of
460,737
and
594,053
shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded in computing diluted earnings per common share because they were anti-dilutive.
The Company previously issued $
217.5
million in convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038. The convertible notes can be converted into the Company’s shares of common stock at an initial rate of 45.0760 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes (See footnote 10 “Subordinated Debentures and Convertible Notes” for additional information regarding convertible notes issued). With the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the if-converted method is required for calculating dilutive EPS for all convertible instruments since the treasury stock method is no longer available. Under the if-converted method, the denominator of the diluted EPS calculation is adjusted to reflect the full number of common shares issuable upon conversion, while the numerator is adjusted to add back after-tax interest expense for the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, shares related to the convertible notes issued were not included in the Company’s diluted EPS calculation. In accordance with the terms of the convertible notes and settlement options available to the Company, no shares would have been delivered to investors of the convertible notes based on the Company’s common stock price during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 as the conversion price exceeded the market price of the Company’s stock.
The following tables show the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Equity Investments
Equity investments with readily determinable fair values at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, consisted of mutual funds in the amounts of $
25.6
million and $
26.8
million, respectively, and were included in “Equity investments” on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
There were no purchases of equity investments with readily determinable fair values during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
The changes in fair value for equity investments with readily determinable fair values for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were recorded in other noninterest income and fees as summarized in the table below:

The decline in fair value of the Company’s equity investments with readily determinable fair values was due to the recent increases in market interest rates over the yield available at the time the equity investments were purchased.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company also had equity investments without readily determinable fair values which are carried at cost less any determined impairment. The balance of these investments is adjusted for changes in subsequent observable prices. At March 31, 2022, the total balance of equity investments without readily determinable fair values included in “Equity investments” on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition was $
31.1
million, consisting of $
370
thousand in correspondent bank stock, $
1.0
million in Community Development Financial Institutions (“CDFI”) investments, and $
29.7
million in Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) investments. At December 31, 2021, the total balance of equity investments without readily determinable fair values was $
31.0
million, consisting of $
370

The Company had
no

* Investments in U.S. Government agency and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises
The Company had collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage-backed, asset-backed, corporate, and municipal securities that were in a continuous loss position for twelve months or longer at March 31, 2022. The collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities were investments in U.S. Government agency and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises and have high credit ratings (“AA” grade or better). The interest on other securities that were in an unrealized loss position have been paid as agreed, and the Company believes this will continue in the future and that the securities will be paid in full as scheduled. The market value declines for these securities were primarily due to movements in interest rates and are not reflective of management’s expectations of the Company’s ability to fully recover any unrealized losses, which may be at maturity. With the adoption of CECL, the length of time that the fair value of investment securities have been less than amortized cost is not considered when assessing for credit impairment.
The Company did not have an allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost of its investment securities available for sale. Accrued interest receivable for investment securities available for sale at March 31, 2022
and
December 31, 2021
totaled $
5.6
million and $
5.6
million, respectively.
The Company evaluates securities in unrealized loss positions for impairment related to credit losses on at least a quarterly basis. Securities in unrealized loss positions are first assessed as to whether we intend to sell, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If one of the criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through current earnings. For securities that do not meet these criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value resulted from credit losses or other factors. In evaluating whether a credit loss exists, the Company has set up an initial filter for impairment triggers. Once the quantitative filters have been triggered, the securities are placed on a watch list and an additional assessment is performed to identify whether a credit impairment exists. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security and the issuer, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, we compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis for the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited to the amount that the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. Unrealized losses that have not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes.
No
allowance for credit losses for available for sale securities was recorded at March 31, 2022.
Approximately
89
% of the Company’s investment portfolio at March 31, 2022 consisted of securities that were issued by U.S. Government agency and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises. Although a government guarantee exists on these investments, these entities are not legally backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government, and the current support is subject to a cap as part of the agreement entered into in 2008. Nonetheless, at this time we do not foresee any set of circumstances in which the government would not fund its commitments on these investments as the issuers are an integral part of the U.S. housing market in providing liquidity and stability. Therefore, we concluded that a zero allowance approach for these investments was appropriate. The Company also had
18
asset-backed securities,
six
corporate securities, and
38
municipal bonds in unrealized loss positions at March 31, 2022. The Company performed an assessment of investments in unrealized loss positions for credit impairment and concluded that
no
allowance for credit losses was required at March 31, 2022.

The loan portfolio consists of
four
segments: real estate, commercial business, residential mortgage, and consumer and other loans. Real estate loans are extended for the purchase and refinance of commercial real estate and are generally secured by first deeds of trust and are collateralized by residential or commercial properties. Commercial business loans are loans provided to businesses for various purposes such as for working capital, purchasing inventory, debt refinancing, business acquisitions, international trade finance activities, and other business related financing needs and also include warehouse lines of credit and SBA PPP loans. Residential mortgage loans are extended for personal, family, or household use and are secured by a mortgage or deed of trust. Consumer and other loans consist of home equity, credit card, and other personal loans.
Loans receivable increased $
113.9
million from December 31, 2021 to $
14.07
billion as of March 31, 2022. The increase in loans receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was largely due to an increase in commercial real estate loans of $
141.4
million primarily as a result of the increase in multifamily secured loans. The Company also purchased $
27.9
million in adjustable rate mortgages during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The Company had $
115.8
million in loans held for sale as of March 31, 2022 compared to $

Generally, loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal and/or interest payments become
90
days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by regulatory requirements. Loans to customers whose financial conditions have deteriorated are considered for nonaccrual status whether or not the loan is
90
days or more past due. Generally, payments received on nonaccrual loans are recorded as principal reductions. Loans are returned to accrual status only when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. The Company does not recognize interest income while loans are on nonaccrual status.
The tables below represent the amortized cost of nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 or more days and still on accrual status by class of loans and broken out by loans with a recorded ACL and those without a recorded ACL as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, including, but not limited to, current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. Homogeneous loans (i.e., home mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, overdraft loans, express business loans, and automobile loans) are not risk rated and credit risk is analyzed largely by the number of days past due. This analysis is performed at least on a quarterly basis.
The definitions for risk ratings are as follows:
•
Pass: Loans that meet a preponderance or more of the Company’s underwriting criteria and evidence an acceptable level of risk.
•
Special Mention: Loans that have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
21
•
Substandard: Loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans in this classification have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
•
Doubtful: Loans that 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.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, there were
no
revolving loans converted to term loans.
The Company may reclassify loans held for investment to loans held for sale in the event that the Company plans to sell loans that were originated with the intent to hold to maturity. Loans transferred from held for investment to held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.
The breakdown of loans by type that were reclassified from held for investment to held for sale for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is presented in the following table:

The Company calculates its ACL by estimating expected credit losses on a collective basis for loans that share similar risk characteristics. Loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated for credit losses on an individual basis. The Company uses a combination of a modeled and non-modeled approach that incorporates current and future economic conditions to estimate lifetime expected losses on a collective basis. The Company uses Probability of Default (“PD”), Loss Given Default (“LGD”), and Exposure at Default (“EAD”) methodologies with quantitative factors and qualitative considerations in calculation of the allowance for credit losses for collectively assessed loans. The Company uses a reasonable and supportable period of
2
years at which point loss assumptions revert back to historical loss information by means of
1
year reversion period.
The ACL for the Company’s construction, credit card, and certain consumer loans is calculated based on a non-modeled approach utilizing historical loss rates to estimate losses. A non-modeled approach was chosen for these loans as fewer data points exist which could result in high levels of estimated loss volatility under a modeled approach. In aggregate, non-modeled loans represented less than
2
% of the Company’s total loan portfolio as of March 31, 2022.
The Company’s Economic Forecast Committee (“EFC”) reviews economic forecast scenarios that are incorporated in the Company’s ACL. The EFC reviews multiple scenarios provided to the Company by an independent third party and chooses a single scenario that best aligns with management’s expectation of future economic conditions. The forecast scenario contains certain macroeconomic variables that are incorporated into the Company’s modeling process, including GDP, unemployment rates, interest rates, and commercial real estate prices. As of March 31, 2022, the Company chose a forecast scenario that incorporates the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and the future economic recovery into estimates of future economic conditions. The economic forecast utilized in the March 31, 2022 ACL calculation showed an overall improvement compared to the forecast incorporated in the December 31, 2021 ACL with an increase in projected GDP growth and projected commercial real estate prices. However, these improvements were offset by events that took place recently that were not fully captured by the latest economic forecast scenario due to the timing of the forecast release. These events include the war in Ukraine which has increased instability in the oil and gas markets, the rise in inflation leading to a change in future projected interest rates, and increasing concerns of an upcoming recession. To account for these most recent risk factors, the Company set aside additional ACL as part its qualitative adjustments which resulted in an increase in ACL at March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021.
Additionally, in order to systematically quantify the credit risk impact of other trends and changes within the loan portfolio, the Company utilizes qualitative adjustments to the modeled and non-modeled estimated loss approaches. The parameters for making adjustments are established under a Credit Risk Matrix that provides different possible scenarios for each of the factors below. The Credit Risk Matrix and the possible scenarios enable the Bank to qualitatively adjust the Loss Migration Ratio by as much as
25
basis points for each loan type pool. This matrix considers the following seven factors, which are patterned after the guidelines provided under the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, updated to reflect the adoption of CECL:
•
Changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge off, and recovery practices;
•
Changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio;
•
Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff;
25
•
Changes in the trends of the volume and severity of past due loans, classified loans, nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings, and other loan modifications;
•
Changes in the quality of the loan review system and the degree of oversight by the Directors;
•
The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; and
•
The effect of external factors, such as competition, legal requirements, and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated losses in the loan portfolio.
For loans which do not share similar risk characteristics such as nonaccrual and TDR loans above $
1.0
million, the Company evaluates these loans on an individual basis in accordance with ASC 326. These nonaccrual and TDR loans are considered to have different risk profiles than performing loans and therefore are evaluated separately. The Company decided to collectively assess TDRs and nonaccrual loans with balances below $
1.0
million along with the performing and accrual loans in order to reduce the operational burden of individually assessing small TDR and nonaccrual loans with immaterial balances. For individually assessed loans, the ACL is measured using either 1) the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; 2) the loan’s observable market price; or 3) the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. For the collateral dependent loans, the Company obtains a new appraisal to determine the fair value of collateral. The appraisals are based on an “as-is” valuation. To ensure that appraised values remain current, the Company either obtains updated appraisals every twelve months from a qualified independent appraiser or an internal evaluation of the collateral is performed by qualified personnel. If the third party market data indicates that the value of the collateral property has declined since the most recent valuation date, management adjusts the value of the property downward to reflect current market conditions. If the fair value of the collateral is less than the amortized balance of the loan, the Company recognizes an ACL with a corresponding charge to the provision for credit losses.
The Company maintains a separate ACL for its off-balance sheet unfunded loan commitments. The Company uses an estimated funding rate to allocate an allowance to undrawn exposures. This funding rate is used as a credit conversion factor to capture how much undrawn lines of credit can potentially become drawn at any point. The funding rate is determined based on a lookback period of 8 quarters. Credit loss is not estimated for off-balance sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by the Company.
The following tables present a breakdown of loans by recorded ACL, broken out by loans evaluated individually and collectively at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Under certain circumstances, the Company provides borrowers relief through loan modifications. These modifications are either temporary in nature (“temporary modifications”) or are more substantive. The temporary modifications generally consist of interest only payments for a
three
to
six
month period, whereby principal payments are deferred. At the end of the modification period, the remaining principal balance is re-amortized based on the original maturity date. At the end of the modification period, the loan either 1) returns to the original contractual terms; 2) is further modified and accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring in accordance with ASC 310-10-35; or 3) is disposed of through foreclosure or liquidation.
TDR loans are individually evaluated in accordance with ASC 310 and ASC 326. The concessions may be granted in various forms, including reduction in the stated interest rate, reduction in the amount of principal amortization, forgiveness of a portion of a loan balance or accrued interest, or extension of the maturity date. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed on the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on their debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Bank’s internal underwriting policy. At March 31, 2022, TDR loans totaled $
59.6
million, compared to $
65.5
million at December 31, 2021.
The balance of loans with modified terms due to COVID-19 as of March 31, 2022 totaled $
10.6
million compared to $
22.8
million at December 31, 2021. The loans were modified in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act. The CARES Act provides banks the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDR for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19 if (i) the loan modification is made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of January 1, 2022 or 60 days after the end of the coronavirus emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. As such, all modified loans that met the criteria outlined within Section 4013 of the CARES Act were not classified as TDR loans as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, unless the loans were TDR prior to the COVID-19 modification or borrowers were identified to be experiencing financial difficulty prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2022, modified loans due to hardship from the COVID-19 pandemic consisted of
42
% commercial real estate loans,
57
% residential mortgage loans, and
1
% consumer loans. The modifications consisted of full payment deferrals, interest only payments, and a hybrid of full payment deferrals for a period of time followed by interest only payments (see “COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications” in the Financial Condition section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for more information).

TDR loans on accrual status are comprised of loans that were accruing at the time of restructuring and for which the Company anticipates full repayment of both principal and interest under the restructured terms. TDR loans that are on nonaccrual status can be returned to accrual status after a period of sustained performance, generally determined to be six months of timely payments as modified. Sustained performance includes the periods prior to the modification and if the prior performance met or exceeded the modified terms. TDR loans on accrual status at March 31, 2022 were comprised of
29
commercial real estate loans totaling $
36.4
million,
15
commercial business loans totaling $
7.9
million, and
9
consumer and other loans totaling $
223
thousand. TDR loans on accrual status at December 31, 2021 were comprised of
31
commercial real estate loans totaling $
43.8
million,
19
commercial business loans totaling $
8.4
million, and
10
consumer and other loans totaling $
199
thousand. The Company expects that TDR loans on accrual status as of March 31, 2022, which were all performing in accordance with their restructured terms, to continue to comply with the restructured terms because of the reduced principal or interest payments on these loans. TDR loans that were restructured at market interest rates and had sustained performance as agreed under the modified loan terms may be reclassified as non-TDR after each year end but are reserved for under ASC 310-10. The Company recorded an allowance totaling $
4.0
million and $
2.7
million for TDR loans as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Leases
The Company’s operating leases are real estate leases which are comprised of bank branch locations, loan production offices, and office spaces with remaining lease terms ranging from
1
to
10
years
as of March 31, 2022. Certain lease arrangements contain extension options which are typically around
5
years. As these extension options are not generally considered reasonably certain of exercise, they are not included in the lease term.
At March 31, 2022, ROU assets and related liabilities were $
50.2
million and $
54.8
million, respectively. At December 31, 2021, ROU assets and related liabilities were $
52.7
million and $
57.3
million, respectively. At March 31, 2022, the short term operating lease liability totaled $
12.2
million and the long-term operating lease liability totaled $
42.5
million. The Company defines short-term operating lease liabilities as liabilities due in twelve months or less and long term lease liabilities are defined as liabilities that are due in more than twelve months at the end of each reporting period. The Company did not have any finance leases at March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company extended
three
leases and entered into
one
new lease contract. Lease extension terms ranged from
five
to
six years
and the Company reassessed the ROU assets and lease liabilities related to these leases.
Operating lease ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. Operating lease expense, which is comprised of amortization of the ROU asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in occupancy expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s occupancy expense also includes variable lease costs which is comprised of the Company’s share of actual costs for utilities, common area maintenance, property taxes, and insurance that are not included in lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. Variable lease costs can also include rent escalations based on changes to indices, such as the Consumer Price Index, where the Company estimates future rent increases and records the actual difference to variable costs.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to present value lease payments in order to recognize a ROU asset and the related lease liability. The Company calculates its incremental borrowing rate by adding a spread to the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowing interest rate at a given period.

300.0
million in FHLB borrowings at December 31, 2021. There were no borrowings from the FRB at December 31, 2021.
The Company maintains a line of credit with the FHLB of San Francisco as a secondary source of funds. The borrowing capacity with the FHLB is limited to the lower of either
25
% of the Bank’s total assets or the Bank’s collateral capacity, and was $
4.47
billion at March 31, 2022, and $
4.45
billion at December 31, 2021. The terms of this credit facility require the Company to pledge eligible collateral with the FHLB equal to at least

7.08
billion and $
6.96
billion, respectively, were pledged at the FHLB for outstanding advances and remaining borrowing capacity. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, other than FHLB stock,
no
securities were pledged as collateral at the FHLB. The purchase of FHLB stock is a prerequisite to become a member of the FHLB system, and the Company is required to own a certain amount of FHLB stock based on total asset size and outstanding borrowings.
FHLB borrowings had weighted average interest rates of
0.63
% and
0.92
%, at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. FHLB advances at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 had various maturities through December 2022. The interest rates of FHLB advances as of March 31, 2022 ranged between
0.30
% and
2.39
%. At March 31, 2022, the Company’s remaining borrowing capacity with the FHLB was $

99
% of the fair market value of the qualifying loans and securities that are pledged. At March 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the qualifying loans pledged at the FRB was $
853.9
million and there was
one
investment security pledged at the discount window with a fair value of $
1.2
million. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the total remaining available borrowing capacity at the FRB discount window was $
677.4
million and $

Subordinated Debentures and Convertible Notes
Subordinated Debt
At March 31, 2022, the Company had
nine
wholly owned subsidiary grantor trusts that had issued $
126.0
million of pooled trust preferred securities. Trust preferred securities accrue and pay distributions periodically at specified annual rates as provided in the indentures. The trusts used the net proceeds from the offering to purchase a like amount of subordinated debentures (the “Debentures”). The Debentures are the sole assets of the trusts. The Company’s obligations under the subordinated debentures and related documents, taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the obligations of the trusts. The trust preferred securities are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturity of the Debentures, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indentures. The Company has the right to redeem the Debentures in whole (but not in part) on a quarterly basis at a redemption price specified in the indentures plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date. The Company also has a right to defer consecutive payments of interest on the debentures for up to
five years
.

The carrying value of Debentures at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $
105.7
million and $
105.4
million, respectively. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, acquired Debentures had remaining discounts of $
24.2
million and $
24.5
million, respectively. The carrying balance of Debentures is net of remaining discounts and includes common trust securities.
The Company’s investment in the common trust securities of the issuer trusts was $
3.9
million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and is included in other assets. Although the subordinated debt issued by the trusts are not included as a component of stockholders’ equity in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, the debt is treated as capital for regulatory purposes. The Company’s trust preferred security debt issuances (less common trust securities) are includable in Tier 1 capital up to a maximum of
25
% of capital on an aggregate basis as they were grandfathered in under BASEL III. Any amount that exceeds
25
% qualifies as Tier 2 capital.
Convertible Notes
In 2018, the Company issued $
217.5
million aggregate principal amount of
2.00
% convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. The convertible notes can be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial rate of 45.0760 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $
22.18
per share of common stock which represents a premium of
22.50
% to the closing stock price on the date of the pricing of the notes). Holders of the convertible notes have the option to convert all or a portion of the notes at any time on or after February 15, 2023. Prior to February 15, 2023, the convertible notes cannot be converted unless under certain specified scenarios. The convertible notes can be called by the Company, in part or in whole, on or after May 20, 2023 for
100
% of the principal amount in cash. Holders of the convertible notes also have the option to put the notes back to the Company on May 15, 2023, May 15, 2028, or May 15, 2033 for
100
% of the principal amount in cash. The convertible notes can be settled in cash, stock, or a combination of stock and cash at the option of the Company.
35
The convertible notes issued by the Company were initially separated into a debt component and an equity component which represents the stock conversion option. The present value of the convertible notes was calculated based on a discount rate of
4.25
%, which represented the current offering rate for similar types of debt without conversion options. The difference between the principal amount of the notes and the present value was recorded as the convertible note discount and additional paid-in capital. The issuance costs related to the offering were also allocated into a debt component to be capitalized, and an equity component in the same percentage allocation of debt and equity of the convertible note.
On January 1, 2021, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 under the modified retrospective approach. Subsequently, the Company accounts for its convertible notes as a single debt instrument. At the adoption of ASU 2020-06, portions previously allocated to equity and the remaining convertible notes discount were both reversed. The reversal of the equity portions of the convertible notes totaled $
18.3
million, net of taxes which was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 resulted in a
$
10.7
million
net adjustment to beginning retained earnings.
The value of the convertible note at issuance and the carrying value as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are presented in the tables below:

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company offers a loan hedging program to certain loan customers. Through this program, the Company originates a variable rate loan with the customer. The Company and the customer will then enter into a fixed interest rate swap. Lastly, an identical offsetting swap is entered into by the Company with a correspondent bank. These “back-to-back” swap arrangements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to book a variable rate loan, while providing the customer with a contract for fixed interest payments. In these arrangements, the Company’s net cash flow is equal to the interest income received from the variable rate loan originated with the customer.
These customer swaps are not designated as hedging
instruments and are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities. The changes in fair value is recognized in the income statement as other income and fees.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, interest rate swaps related to the Company’s loan hedging program that were outstanding are presented in the following table:

At March 31, 2022, the Company had risk participation agreements with an outside counterparty for an interest rate swap related to a loan in which it is a participant. The risk participation agreement provides credit protection to the financial institution should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract. Risk participation agreements are credit derivatives not designated as hedges. Credit derivatives are not speculative and are not used to manage interest rate risk in assets or liabilities. Changes in the fair value in credit derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. The fee received, less the estimate of the loss for credit exposure, was recognized in earnings at the time of the transaction. At March 31, 2022, the notional amount of the risk participation agreements sold was $
123.3
million with a credit valuation adjustment of $
61
thousand. At December 31, 2021, the notional amount of the risk participation agreements sold was $
123.9
million with a credit valuation adjustment of $
93
thousand.
As part of the overall liability management, the Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to help manage interest rate risk positions. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps do not represent the amount exchanged by the parties. The exchange of cash flows is determined by reference to the notional amounts and the other terms of the interest rate swap agreements.
The Company had
one
existing non-forward starting interest rate swap agreement as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 with a notional amount of $
100.0
million designated as cash flow hedges of certain LIBOR-based debt. In March 2022, the Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $
100.0
million designated as a cash flow hedge of liabilities tied to the federal funds rate. This forward starting interest rate swap commences on March 15, 2023 and matures on March 15, 2027. The Company’s swaps were determined to be fully effective during the periods presented. The aggregate fair value of the swap is recorded in liabilities with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss on derivatives is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into interest expense and interest income in the period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to interest rate swap derivatives will be reclassified to interest income and interest expense as interest payments are received or paid on the Company’s derivatives. The Company expects the hedges to remain fully effective throughout the remaining terms. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reclassified $
64
thousand and $
66
thousand, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are presented in the following table:

The Company enters into various stand-alone mortgage-banking derivatives in order to hedge the risk associated with the fluctuation of interest rates. Changes in fair value are recorded as mortgage banking revenue. Residential mortgage loans funded with interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors are considered derivatives. At March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $
2.1

Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk that are used to meet the financing needs of customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, commercial letters of credit, and commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as the Company does for extending loan facilities to customers. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on the Company’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. The types of collateral that the Company may hold can vary and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing properties.
Commitments at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are summarized as follows:

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal claims. The Company has reviewed all legal claims against the Company with counsel and has taken into consideration the views of such counsel as to the potential outcome of the claims. Loss contingencies for all legal claims totaled $
0
at March 31, 2022 and $
52
thousand at December 31, 2021. It is reasonably possible that the Company may incur losses in excess of 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 that the Company believes has little to no merit. The Company has considered these and other possible loss contingencies and does not expect the amounts to be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill, Intangible Assets, and Servicing Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the sum of the estimated fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less the estimated fair value of the liabilities assumed. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life and is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. At December 31, 2021, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to test for impairment and the management has concluded that there was no impairment. As the Company operates as single business unit, goodwill impairment was assessed based on the Company as a whole. Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes and is not tax deductible.
The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $
464.5
million. There was
no
impairment of goodwill recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over their estimated lives or
ten years
. Amortization expense related to core deposit intangible assets totaled $
487
thousand and $
509

Servicing assets are recognized when SBA and residential mortgage loans are sold with the servicing retained by the Company and the related income is recorded as a component of gains on sales of loans. Servicing assets are initially recorded at fair value based on the present value of the contractually specified servicing fee, net of servicing costs, over the estimated life of the loan, using a discount rate. The Company’s servicing costs approximates the industry average servicing costs of 40 basis points. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.
Management periodically evaluates servicing assets for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to the carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on loan type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have a valuation allowance on its servicing assets.
The changes in servicing assets for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had an income tax provision totaling $
21.3
million on pretax income of $
82.0
million, representing an effective tax rate of
25.92
%, compared with an income tax provision of $
14.0
million on pretax income of $
57.7
million, representing an effective tax rate of
24.22
% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to a decrease in affordable housing tax credits compared with the prior year.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as state income taxes. The Company had total unrecognized tax benefits of $
3.3
million at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 that relate to uncertainties associated with federal and state income tax matters. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company recorded approximately $
415
thousand and $
387
thousand, for accrued interest (
no
portion was related to penalties) at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Management believes it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $
789
thousand in the next twelve months due to a settlement with the state tax authorities.
The statute of limitations for the assessment of income taxes related to the consolidated federal income tax return is closed for all tax years up to and including 2017. The expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of income and franchise taxes related to the various state income and franchise tax returns varies by state. The Company is currently under examination by the New York City Department of Finance for the 2016, 2017, and 2018 tax years and by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance for the 2017 tax year. While the outcome of the examination is unknown, the Company expects no material adjustments.
Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities (without regard to certain changes to deferred taxes). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management evaluates both positive and negative evidence, including the existence of any cumulative losses in the current year and the prior two years, the amount of taxes paid in available carry-back years, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. This analysis is updated quarterly and adjusted as necessary. Based on the analysis, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not required as of March 31, 2022
.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date reflecting assumptions that a market participant would use when pricing an asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The fair value inputs of the instruments are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories pursuant to ASC 820:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. The quoted price shall not be adjusted for any blockage factor (i.e., size of the position relative to trading volume).
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies, including the use of pricing matrices. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments. Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis are listed as follows:
Securities Available for Sale
The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).
The fair values of the Company’s Level 3 securities available for sale were measured using an income approach valuation technique. The primary inputs and assumptions used in the fair value measurement was derived from the security’s underlying collateral, which included discount rate, prepayment speeds, payment delays, and an assessment of the risk of default of the underlying collateral, among other factors. Significant increases or decreases in any of the inputs or assumptions could result in a significant increase or decrease in the fair value measurement.
Equity Investments With Readily Determinable Fair Value
The fair value of the Company’s equity investments with readily determinable fair value is comprised of mutual funds. The fair value for these investments is obtained from unadjusted quoted prices in active markets on the date of measurement and is therefore classified as Level 1.
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company offers interest rate swaps to certain loan customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. The Company originates a variable rate loan and enters into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap with the customer. The Company also enters into an offsetting swap with a correspondent bank. These back-to-back agreements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to originate a variable rate loan, while providing a contract for fixed interest payments for the customer. The net cash flow for the Company is equal to the interest income received from a variable rate loan originated with the customer. The fair value of these derivatives is based on a discounted cash flow approach. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value of these derivative contracts, the valuation of interest rate swaps is classified as Level 2.
Mortgage Banking Derivatives
Mortgage banking derivative instruments consist of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale contracts that trade in liquid markets. The fair value is based on the prices available from third party investors. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value, the valuation of mortgage banking derivatives is classified as Level 2.
44
Other Derivatives
Other derivatives consist of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges and risk participation agreements. The fair values of these other derivative financial instruments are based upon the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the instruments, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current credit worthiness of the counterparties. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are classified within Level 2. Credit derivatives such as risk participation agreements are valued based on credit worthiness of the underlying borrower which is a significant unobservable input and therefore is classified as Level 3.
Collateral Dependent Loans
The fair values of collateral dependent loans are generally measured for ACL using the practical expedients permitted by ASC 326-20-35-5 including collateral dependent loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation, less costs to sell of
8.5
%. Appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and income approach. Adjustment may be made in the appraisal process by the independent appraiser to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans and the underlying collateral. For commercial and industrial and asset backed loans, independent valuations may include a
20
-
60
% discount for eligible accounts receivable and a
50
-
70
% discount for inventory. These result in a Level 3 classification.
OREO
OREO is fair valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon and the asset is transferred to OREO. The value is based primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell of up to
8.5
% and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. OREO is reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted to lower of cost or market accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.
Loans Held For Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors, or based on recent comparable sales (Level 2 inputs), if available, and if not available, are based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk (Level 3 inputs) or may be assessed based upon the fair value of the collateral, which is obtained from recent real estate appraisals (Level 3 inputs). These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including 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 are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

The Company measures assets and liabilities for its fair value disclosures based on an exit price notion. Although the exit price notion represents the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, the actual price received for a sale of assets or paid to transfer liabilities could be different from exit price disclosed. The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:
The carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, savings and other interest bearing demand deposits, equity investments without readily determinable fair values, customer’s and Bank’s liabilities on acceptances, noninterest bearing deposits, short-term debt, secured borrowings and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. The fair value of loans is determined through a discounted cash flow analysis which incorporates probability of default and loss given default rates on an individual loan basis. The discount rate is based on the LIBOR Swap Rate for fixed rate loans, while variable loans start with the corresponding index rate and an adjustment was made on certain loans which considered factors such as servicing costs, capital charges, duration, asset type incremental costs, and use of projected cash flows. Residential real estate loans fair values include Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac prepayment speed assumptions or a third party index based on historical prepayment speeds. Fair value of time deposits is based on discounted cash flow analysis using recent issuance rates over the prior three months and a market rate analysis of recent offering rates for retail products. Wholesale time deposit fair values incorporate brokered time deposit offering rates. The fair value of the Company’s debt is based on current rates for similar financing. Fair value for the Company’s convertible notes is based on the actual last traded price of the notes. The fair value of commitments to fund loans represents fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar remaining maturities and is not presented herein. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation
In 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2019 stock-based incentive plan (the “2019 Plan”), which provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SAR”), restricted stock, performance shares, and performance units to non-employee directors, employees, and potentially consultants of the Company. Stock options may be either incentive stock options (“ISOs”), as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or nonqualified stock options (“NQSOs”).
The 2019 Plan provides the Company flexibility to (i) attract and retain qualified non-employee directors, executives, other key employees, and potentially consultants with appropriate equity-based awards to; (ii) motivate high levels of performance; (iii) recognize employee and potentially consultants’ contributions to the Company’s success; and (iv) align the interests of the participants with those of the Company’s stockholders. The 2019 Plan initially had
4,400,000
shares that were available for grant to participants. The exercise price for shares under an ISO may not be less than
100
% of fair market value on the date the award is granted under the Code. Similarly, under the terms of the 2019 Plan, the exercise price for SARs and NQSOs may not be less than
100
% of fair market value on the date of grant. Performance units are awarded to participants at the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award (after the lapse of the restriction period and the attainment of the performance criteria). All options not exercised generally expire
10
years after the date of grant.
ISOs, SARs, and NQSOs have vesting periods of
three
to
five years
and have
10
-year contractual terms. Restricted stock, performance shares, and performance units are granted with a restriction period of not less than
one year
from the grant date for performance-based awards and not more than
three years
from the grant date for time-based vesting of grants. Compensation expense for awards is recognized over the vesting period.
Under the 2019 Plan,
1,936,810
shares were available for future grants as of March 31, 2022.
With the exception of the shares underlying stock options and restricted stock awards, the Board of Directors may choose to settle the awards by paying the equivalent cash value or by delivering the appropriate number of shares.

The Company maintains the Hope Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which allows eligible employees to purchase the Company’s common shares through payroll deductions which build up between the offering date and the purchase date. At the purchase date, the Company uses the accumulated funds to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock on behalf of the participating employees at a
10
% discount to the closing price of the Company’s common shares. The closing price is the lower of either the closing price on the first day of the offering period or the closing price on the purchase date. The dollar amount of common shares purchased under the ESPP must not exceed
20
% of the participating employee’s base salary, subject to a cap of $
25
thousand in stock value based on the grant date. The ESPP is considered compensatory under GAAP and compensation expense for the ESPP is recognized as part of the Company’s stock-based compensation expense. The compensation expense for the ESPP during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $
201
thousand and $
221
thousand, respectively.
The total amounts charged against income related to stock-based payment arrangements, including the ESPP, were $
2.6
million and $
2.6
million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized was approximately $
673
thousand and $
623
thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
At March 31, 2022, there was
no
unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock option grants. Unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock and performance units was $
14.1
million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average vesting period of
1.89
years.

Regulatory Matters
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s business, financial condition and results of operation, such as restrictions on growth or the payment of dividends or other capital distributions or management fees. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted final regulations, which revised their risk-based and leverage capital requirements for banking organizations to meet requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and to implement the Basel III international agreements reached by the Basel Committee. The final rules became effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015 and were subject to a phase-in period through January 1, 2019. The final rules that had an impact on the Company and the Bank include:
•
An increase in the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio from 4.00% to 6.00% of risk-weighted assets;
•
A new category and a required 4.50% of risk-weighted assets ratio was established for “Common Equity Tier 1” as a subset of Tier 1 capital limited to common equity;
•
A minimum non-risk-based leverage ratio was set at 4.00%, eliminating a 3.00% exception for higher rated banks;
•
Changes in the permitted composition of Tier 1 capital to exclude trust preferred securities, mortgage servicing rights and certain deferred tax assets and include unrealized gains and losses on available for sale debt and equity securities;
•
The risk-weights of certain assets for purposes of calculating the risk-based capital ratios are changed for high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans, certain past due non-residential mortgage loans and certain mortgage-backed and other securities exposures; and
•
A capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk weighted assets over each of the required capital ratios was added and must be met to avoid limitations on the ability of the B
ank to pay dividends, repurchase shares, or pay discretionary bonuses.
As of
March 31, 2022, the capital ratios for the Company and the Bank were in excess of all regulatory minimum capital ratios with the addition of the conservation buffer.
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and implemented the CECL methodology. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, federal regulatory agencies published a final rule that provides the option to delay the cumulative effect of the day 1 impact of CECL adoption on regulatory capital, along with 25% of the change in the adjusted allowance for credit losses (as computed for regulatory capital purposes which excludes PCD loans), for two years, followed by a three-year phase-in period. The Company has elected the five-year transition period consistent with the final rule issued by the federal regulatory agencies.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the most recent regulatory notification categorized the Bank as “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To generally be categorized as “well-capitalized”, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notification from regulators that management believes has changed the institution’s category.

Revenue Recognition
With the adoption of ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606), the Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Topic 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as fees associated with mortgage servicing rights, financial guarantees, derivatives, and certain credit card fees are also out of scope of the new guidance. Topic 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as deposit related fees, wire transfer fees, and certain OREO related net gains or expenses. However, the recognition of these revenue streams for the Company did not change significantly upon adoption of Topic 606. Noninterest revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 are discussed below.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts and Wire Transfer Fees
Service charges on noninterest and interest bearing deposit accounts consist of monthly service charges, customer analysis charges, non-sufficient funds (“NSF”) charges, and other deposit account related charges. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis charges and monthly service charges is generally satisfied, and the related revenue is recognized over the period in which the service is provided. NSF charges, other deposit account related charges, and wire transfer fees are transaction based, and therefore the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point of the transaction, and related revenue recognized at that point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.
Service charges on deposit accounts and wire transfers are summarized below:

OREO Income (Expense)
OREO are often sold in transactions that, under ASC 606, may not be considered a contract with a customer because the sale of the asset may not be an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. However, sales of nonfinancial assets, including in-substance nonfinancial assets, should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 610-20, “
Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets”
, which requires the Company to apply certain measurement and recognition concepts of ASC 606. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the sale of a real estate property, along with any associated gain or loss, when control of the property transfers to the buyer. For sales of existing real estate properties, this generally will occur at the point of sale. When the Company finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Company must assess whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. Application of the new revenue recognition standard does not materially change the amount and the timing of the gain/loss on sale of OREO and other nonfinancial assets. Further, there were no open OREO/nonfinancial assets sale contracts at the adoption date that required an evaluation under Topic 606. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized net gains on sales of OREO totaling $
20
thousand and net losses on sales of OREO of $
14
thousand, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
GENERAL
We offer a full range of commercial and retail banking loan and deposit products through our wholly-owned subsidiary Bank of Hope. We have 54 banking offices in California, New York/New Jersey, Illinois, Washington, Texas, Virginia, Alabama and Georgia. We have loan production offices located in Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Portland, Seattle, Fremont, and in Southern California. We offer our banking services through our network of banking offices and loan production offices to our customers who typically are small to medium-sized businesses in our market areas. We accept deposits and originate a variety of loans including real estate loans, commercial business loans, residential mortgage loans, SBA loans, and consumer loans.
Our principal business involves earning interest on loans and investment securities that are funded primarily by customer deposits, wholesale deposits, and other borrowings. Our operating income and net income are derived primarily from the difference between interest income received from interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities and, to a lesser extent, from fees received in connection with servicing loan and deposit accounts and income from the sale of loans. Our major expenses are the interest we pay on deposits and borrowings, provisions for credit losses and general operating expenses, which primarily consist of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy costs, and other operating expenses. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control, such as changes in the national economy and in the related monetary policies of the FRB, inflation, unemployment, consumer spending, political changes, and other events. We cannot predict the impact that these factors and future changes in domestic and foreign economic and political conditions might have on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic had a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations and any further impact will depend on future developments that cannot be predicted, including a rise in COVID cases or the impact of new variants, the economic implications of the same, effectiveness of vaccines being distributed, and the continued actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic. Although the United States had seen a decline in new cases of COVID-19 as a result of vaccination efforts and many states have relaxed most of the business closures and other social distancing requirements, concerns over COVID-19 continues to exist. While we currently believe that we have sufficient excess capital and liquidity to withstand the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, further economic deterioration, or an extended recession, it is possible these events could adversely impact our capital and liquidity positions.
Pandemic Response Plan
With the onset of the COVID-19 virus, we activated a Pandemic Response Plan in January 2020, in advance of the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the Pandemic Response Plan, a Pandemic Response Team and a Business Continuity Program Team were formed which closely monitor the COVID-19 situation, identifying issues and developing responses to reduce risks related to COVID-19 to our customers, employees, and communities. The Pandemic Response Team and Business Continuity Program Team will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and take additional actions in an effort to ensure the safe continued operations of the Bank.

Results of Operations
Overview
Net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $60.7 million, or $0.50 per diluted common share, compared to $43.7 million, or $0.35 per diluted common share, for the same period of 2021, which was an increase of $17.0 million, or 39.0%. The increase in net income was primarily due to the decrease in provision for credit losses and increase in net interest income before provision (credit) for credit losses.
The following table summarizes the accretion and amortization adjustments resulting from prior acquisitions that were included in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

The annualized return on average assets was 1.37% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 1.02% for the same period of 2021. The annualized return on average stockholders’ equity was 11.62% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 8.53% for the same period of 2021. The efficiency ratio was 51.50% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 53.61% for the same period of 2021.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net Interest Income
A principal component of our 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, borrowed funds, and convertible notes. 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.
Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
Net interest income before provision for credit losses was $133.2 million for the first quarter of 2022 compared to $122.6 million for the same period of 2021, an increase of $10.6 million, or 8.6%. The increase in net interest income was due to the increase in interest income and reduction in interest expense for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Interest income for the first quarter of 2022 was $144.9 million, an increase of $6.6 million, or 4.8%, compared to $138.3 million for the same period of 2021. The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to the higher average balances of loans and investment securities and an increase in investment yields. Interest income on our investment securities also increased due to purchases of higher yielding securities.
Interest expense for the first quarter of 2022 was $11.7 million, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 25.6%, compared to $15.7 million for the same period of 2021. The decrease in interest expense was due to the overall decline in our cost of deposits from the repricing of time deposits to lower rates as well as a reduction in rates on interest bearing deposits accounts throughout 2021.
62
Net Interest Margin
Our net interest margin is impacted by the weighted average rates we earn on interest earning assets and pay on interest bearing liabilities and the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2022 was 3.21%, an increase of 15 basis points from 3.06% for the same period of 2021. The increase in net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due to increase in yields from securities available for sale and other investments combined with decreases in cost of interest bearing deposits partially offset by an overall decline in yields on loans and increase in cost for other borrowings.
The weighted average yield on loans decreased to 3.88% for the first quarter of 2022 from 3.94% for the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in loan yields for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was mostly attributable to the impact of lower interest income related to SBA PPP loans and lower purchase accounting accretion. At March 31, 2022, variable interest rate loans made up approximately 43% of the loan portfolio and the remaining 57% of the loan portfolio consisted of loans with fixed interest rates. Fixed rate loans include hybrid loans that had fixed interest rates at the end of the period but will eventually change to a variable interest rate after a certain period of time. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the average weighted rate on new loan originations was 3.54% compared to 2.56% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in the average weighted rate on new loan originations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was mostly due to the originations of SBA PPP loans in 2021 which all have an interest rate of 1.00%. Excluding SBA PPP loans, the average weighted rate on new loan originations for the was 3.44% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. There were no SBA PPP originations in 2022.
Discount accretion income on acquired loans was $883 thousand and $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decline in discount accretion income was primarily due to the payoff of acquired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2021 which resulted in additional discount accretion income. There were no significant payoffs of acquired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The weighted average yield on securities available for sale for the first quarter of 2022 was 1.80% compared to 1.42% for the same period of 2021. The change in weighted average yield on securities available for sale for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was due to purchases of higher yielding securities and increase in yields on variable rate investments as a results of the increase in interest rates. The change in yields was also impacted by fluctuations in the overall investment portfolio yield due to the change in pay-down speeds of investment securities.
The weighted average yield on FHLB stock and other investments for the first quarter of 2022 was 0.63% compared to 0.41% for the same period of 2021. The increase in interest rates led to an increase in interest earned on interest bearing cash balances at the Federal Reserve, which resulted in an increase in yield on FHLB stock and other investments.
The weighted average cost of deposits for the first quarter of 2022 was 0.24%, a decrease of 12 basis points from 0.36% for the same period of 2021. The decline in cost of deposit was due to the repricing of time deposits and a reduction in the cost of money market accounts.
The weighted average cost of FHLB and FRB borrowings for the first quarter of 2022 was 1.15%, a decrease of 6 basis points from 1.21% for the same period of 2021. The decrease in cost of FHLB and FRB borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was due to a small decline in FHLB borrowing rates.
The weighted average cost of our convertible notes was 2.45% and 2.46% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The cost of our convertible notes consists of the 2.00% coupon rate and non-cash interest expense from the capitalization of issuance cost.
The weighted average cost of other borrowings (subordinated debentures) for the first quarter of 2022 was 3.98%, an increase of 8 basis points from 3.90% for the same period of 2021. Subordinated debentures have variable interest rates that are tied to the three month LIBOR rate. The increase in the three month LIBOR rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 resulted in an increase in the weighted average cost of other borrowings.

Changes in net interest income are a function of changes in interest rates and volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table sets forth information regarding the changes in interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. The total change for each category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities is segmented into the change attributable to variations in volume (changes in volume multiplied by the old rate) and the change attributable to variations in interest rates (changes in rates multiplied by the old volume). Nonaccrual loans are included in average loans used to compute this table.

Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses reflects our judgment of the current period cost associated with credit risk inherent in our loan portfolio. The provision for credit losses for each period is dependent upon many factors, including loan growth, net charge offs, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquencies, assessments by management, third parties’ and regulators’ examination of the loan portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral on problem loans, the general economic conditions in our market areas, and future projections of the economy. Specifically, the provision for credit losses represents the amount charged against current period earnings to achieve an allowance for credit losses that, in our judgment, is adequate to absorb probable lifetime losses inherent in our loan portfolio. Periodic fluctuations in the provision for credit losses result from management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; however, actual credit losses may vary in material respects from current estimates. If the allowance for credit losses is inadequate, we may be required to record additional provisions, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations
.
The negative provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2022 was $11.0 million, a decrease of $14.3 million from $3.3 million in provision for credit losses for the same period of the prior year. The overall decrease in provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 was mainly due to the large recoveries received during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The recoveries resulted in an increase in our overall allowance for credit losses to amounts exceeding our requirements under our CECL allowance for credit losses calculation. The negative provision that resulted from recoveries received was partially offset by additional reserves set aside by management to account for instability in markets as a result of the war in Ukraine and increased concerns of a possible recession. As a result we recorded a negative provision of $11.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
See the “Financial Condition” section of this MD&A for additional information and further discussion.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income is primarily comprised of service fees on deposit accounts, international service fees (fees received on trade finance letters of credit), loan servicing fees, wire transfer fees, swap fee income, net gains on sales of loans, net gains on sales and calls of securities available for sale, and other income which includes earnings on bank owned life insurance, changes in the fair value of our equity investments with readily determinable fair value, and other miscellaneous income. Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2022 was $13.2 million compared to $8.8 million for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of $4.4 million or 49.8%.
Noninterest income by category is summarized in the table below:

Total noninterest income for the first quarter of 2022 increased compared to the first quarter of 2021 largely due to increases in net gains on sales of SBA loans, swap fees, and service fees on deposit accounts offset partially by decreases in gains on sales of residential mortgage loans, loan servicing fees, and other income and fees.
Service fees on deposit accounts increased $184 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 mainly due to an increase in business analysis fees.
International service fees remained largely unchanged for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. International service fees are earned from trade finance loans which increased to $205.6 million at March 31, 2022 from $102.7 million at March 31, 2021. Although the balance of trade finance loans increased from March 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022, the volume of trade finance loan transactions declined in 2022 compared to 2021, which resulted a decline in international service fees.
Loan servicing fees, net represents income earned from servicing SBA and residential mortgage loans that were previously sold. We retain servicing on many of the loans that we choose to sell. The decrease in loan servicing fees, net for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due to an increase in payoff of serviced loans for 2022 compared to 2021. The payoff of serviced loans results in the full amortization of the remaining servicing asset, which is recorded as a reduction to loan servicing fee income.
Wire transfer fees remained largely unchanged during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021.
Swap fee income represents fees earned from back to back swap transactions for our loan customers. The number of swap transactions have increased in 2022 which has resulted in an increase in swap fee income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, we stopped the practice of regularly selling the guaranteed portion of SBA loans due to the reduction in premium rates paid in the secondary market. However, premiums for SBA guaranteed loans have increased to levels previously paid prior to the decline experienced in 2018. As a result, we returned to the practice of regularly selling SBA guaranteed loans starting the second quarter of 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we sold $58.1 million in SBA guaranteed loans and recorded $5.6 million in net gains on sale of SBA loans. The SBA loans that we sold were mostly seasoned loans that were originated in 2020 and 2021. We chose to focus on selling seasoned loans first as these loans have higher prepayment risk compared to newly originated loans. We did not have any net gains on sales of SBA loans for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
66
Net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans represents net gains from the sale of residential mortgage loans that we originate. Residential mortgage loans sold during the first quarter of 2022 totaled $37.8 million compared to $67.8 million sold during the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due to a decrease in residential mortgage loans sold and a reduction in premiums received.
Other income and fees include income from bank owned life insurance, recoveries on acquired loans that were fully charged-off at acquisition, debit card/credit card fee income, fair value changes on our derivatives and equity investments, and other miscellaneous income. Other income and fees decreased for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to decreases in fair value of equity investments.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2022 was $75.4 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 7.0%, from $70.4 million for the first quarter of 2021.

The increase in noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment and FDIC assessments offset partially by declines in credit related expenses, professional fees, and investments in affordable housing partnership expenses.
Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $6.5 million or 15.8% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in salaries and benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due to increases in salaries, group insurance, payroll taxes, and commissions due to an increase in full-time equivalent employees and a decline in origination costs related to SBA PPP loans. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased from 1,444 at March 31, 2021 to 1,509 at March 31, 2022. Competition in the market for staffing has intensified, which has played in a factor in rising salaries and employee benefits costs. The impact is expected to continue to put pressure on salary expenses for the remainder of 2022.
Occupancy expense increased by $368 thousand for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to increase in lease and occupancy related expenses.
Furniture and equipment expense increased by $458 thousand for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 largely due to higher software depreciation and software subscription expenses.
Advertising and marketing expense remained largely unchanged for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
Data processing and communications expense decreased $276 thousand for the first quarter of 2022 compared to same period in 2021 due to a reduction in data processing fees.
67
Professional fees decreased by $692 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in professional fees was due primarily to lower legal fees related to litigation involving the Bank.
We make investments in affordable housing partnerships and receive Community Reinvestment Act credits and tax credits, which reduces our overall effective tax rate. Investments in affordable housing partnership expenses are recorded based on benefit schedules of individual investment projects under the equity method of accounting. The benefit schedules show tax loss/deductions investors can take each year. We amortize the initial cost of the investments in affordable housing partnership by tax loss/deductions. This amortization expense is more than offset by both tax credits received, which reduces our tax provision expense dollar for dollar, and the tax benefits related to any tax losses generated through the affordable housing project’s expenditures. At March 31, 2022, total tax credits related to our investment in affordable housing partnerships was approximately $2.2 million compared to $2.6 million at March 31, 2021. The balance of investments in affordable housing partnerships decreased from $66.8 million at March 31, 2021 to $56.4 million at March 31, 2022.
The FDIC assessment expense or premium utilizes an initial base assessment rate, which is calculated as a percentage of our average consolidated total assets less average tangible equity. In addition to the initial assessment base, adjustments are added based upon our regulatory rating and on other financial measures. FDIC assessment expenses increased by $314 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 due mainly to an increase in total consolidated assets.
Credit related expense decreased $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 due largely to a decrease in expenses related to loan collections, provision for uncollected escrow advances, provision for loan accrued interest receivables, and provision for off balance sheet loan commitments. Provision for loan accrued interest receivables for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $200 thousand compared to $600 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Provision for off balance sheet loan commitments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $200 thousand compared to $105 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
OREO expense, net experienced an increase of $76 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in OREO expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was due to an increase in OREO valuation allowance expenses offset partially by a decline in OREO related expenses.
Other noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 remained largely unchanged from other noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax provision expense was $21.3 million and $14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rates were 25.92% and 24.22% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to a decrease in affordable housing tax credits and affordable housing tax credits having a lower effect on higher annual projected pre-tax book income.
68
Financial Condition
At March 31, 2022, our total assets were $17.80 billion, a decrease of $85.2 million, or 0.5%, from $17.89 billion at December 31, 2021. The decrease in total assets was due to the decreases in securities available-for-sale, cash and cash equivalents, and other assets partially offset by increases in loan receivable, deferred tax assets, and loans held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Equity Investments
Total equity investments include equity investments with readily determinable fair values and equity investments without readily determinable fair values. Equity investments at March 31, 2022 totaled $56.7 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 2.0%, from $57.9 million at December 31, 2021.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, total equity investments with readily determinable fair values totaled $25.6 million and $26.8 million, respectively, consisting of mutual funds. Changes to the fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair values is recorded in other noninterest income.
We also had $31.1 million and $31.0 million in equity investments without readily determinable fair values as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. At March 31, 2022, equity investments without readily determinable fair values included $29.7 million in CRA investments, $1.0 million in CDFI investments, and $370 thousand in correspondent bank stock. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost, less impairment, and adjustments are made to the carrying balance based on observable price changes. There were no impairments or observable price changes for equity investments without readily determinable fair values during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Investment Securities Portfolio
At March 31, 2022, we had $2.49 billion in available for sale securities compared to $2.67 billion at December 31, 2021. The net unrealized loss on the available for sale securities at March 31, 2022 was $160.6 million compared to a net unrealized loss on securities of $19.4 million at December 31, 2021. The change in unrealized loss on investment securities from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 was due to the increase in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, $85.2 million in investment securities were purchased and $114.9 million in investment securities were paid down. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no investment securities that matured, were called, or were sold.
We performed an analysis on our investment portfolio in unrealized loss positions as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and determined that an allowance for credit losses was not required. The majority of our investment portfolio consists of securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, which we determined to have zero loss expectation. At March 31, 2022, we also had 18 asset-back securities, six corporate securities, and 38 municipal bonds not issued by U.S. Government agencies or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises that were in unrealized loss positions. Based on our analysis of these investment securities, we concluded a credit loss did not exist due to the strength of the issuers, high bond ratings, and because we still expect full payment of principal and interest.
Investments in Affordable Housing Partnerships
At March 31, 2022, we had $56.4 million in investments in affordable housing partnerships compared to $58.4 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in investments in affordable housing partnerships was due to recorded losses and premium amortizations recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships totaled $8.8 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $9.5 million at December 31, 2021. The decline in commitments to fund investments in affordable housing partnerships during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was due to cash contributions, which reduced the remaining commitment balances.
69
Loans Held For Sale
Loans held for sale at March 31, 2022 totaled $115.8 million compared to $99.0 million at December 31, 2021, representing an increase of $16.7 million, or 16.9%. The increase in loans held for sale was largely due to the transfer of $35.5 million in loans with deteriorated credit quality rated as substandard from loans receivable to loans held for sale during the first quarter of 2022. The transfer of these loans to held for sale was in line with management’s strategic plan to improve the credit quality of the loan portfolio through the sale of loans with elevated credit risk. Loans held for sale at March 31, 2022 included $57.6 million in SBA loans held for sale, $1.9 million in residential mortgage loans held for sale, and $56.2 million in other loans with elevated credit risk held for sale. At December 31, 2021, loans held for sale consisted of $49.7 million in SBA loans held for sale, $26.2 million in loans with elevated credit risk, and $23.2 million in residential mortgage loans held for sale.
Loans Receivable
At March 31, 2022, loans receivable totaled $14.07 billion, an increase of $113.9 million from $13.95 billion at December 31, 2021. The following table summarizes our loan portfolio by amount and percentage of total loans outstanding in each major loan category as of the dates indicated:

Our total loans receivable increased from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 largely due to an increase of $156.4 million in commercial real estate and $51.5 million in residential mortgage loans during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Commercial business loans decreased $84.0 million from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022. The increase in commercial real estate loans was mainly from originations of $578.4 million in new commercial real estate loans during the first quarter of 2022 which represents a record high for first quarter commercial real estate loan originations. The decrease in commercial business loans was largely due to the decrease in warehouse lines of credit from $530.3 million at December 31, 2021 to $302.5 million at March 31, 2022 and the forgiveness of $116.5 million in SBA PPP loans during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The declines in commercial business loans were partially offset by the origination of $343.7 million in new loans during the first quarter of 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we sold $100.7 million in loans consisting of $58.1 million in SBA loans, $37.8 million in residential mortgage loans and $4.8 million in other loans with elevated credit risk. We also purchased $27.9 million in residential mortgage loans during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
We normally do not extend lines of credit or make loan commitments to business customers for periods in excess of one year. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for providing loan facilities to our customers. We perform annual reviews of such commitments prior to renewal.

The ratio of nonperforming assets to loans receivable and OREO was 0.73% at March 31, 2022 and 0.80% at December 31, 2021.

Nonaccrual loans exclude the guaranteed portion of delinquent SBA loans that are in liquidation totaling $17.0 million as of March 31, 2022 and $19.5 million as of December 31, 2021.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was $147.5 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $140.6 million at December 31, 2021. The ACL was 1.05% and 1.01% of loans receivable at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The ACL to loans receivable ratio does not include discount on acquired loans. Total discount on acquired loans at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $11.3 million and $12.4 million, respectively. ACL on individually evaluated loans increased to $7.5 million at March 31, 2022 from $5.1 million at December 31, 2021.
Economic forecasts used in the calculation of the March 31, 2022 ACL improved compared to economic forecasts used in the calculation of the December 31, 2021 ACL, which reduced the overall quantitative reserve requirement. However, subsequent to the release of the latest economic forecast, certain events arose including the rise in inflation and expected future interest rates, a rise in recessionary concerns, and the war in Ukraine which poses a potential risk to the overall stability of global markets. As a result, we set aside additional qualitative reserves as of March 31, 2022 to account for these risks as they were not fully captured in the economic forecasts used in the calculation of the ACL as of March 31, 2022. As a result, we had a net increase in our ACL as of March 31, 2022 compared to the ACL as of December 31, 2021.

Held-for-sale loans of $115.8 million and $99.0 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, were excluded.
Our ACL coverage ratio increased as of March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. The increase in ACL coverage ratio was primarily due to the increase in allowance for commercial business loans. The allowance for credit losses on commercial business loans increased due to a decline in prepayment speed assumptions which increased the estimated average life of commercial business loans resulting in an increase in reserve requirements.
The increase in total ACL as of March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 consisted of an increase in both ACL for individually evaluated loans and collectively evaluated loans. Reserves for individually evaluated loans increased from $5.1 million at December 31, 2021 to $7.5 million at March 31, 2022. The allowance requirement for loans evaluated on a collective basis increased to $140.0 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $135.4 million at December 31, 2021.
Total recoveries for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $19.4 million. The high levels of recoveries was due to the recovery of a large lending relationship which previously had charged offs totaling $29.6 million during the third quarter of 2021.

The following table presents the provisions (credit) for credit losses, the amount of loans charged off, and the recoveries on loans previously charged off, together with the balance of the ACL at the beginning and end of each period, the balance of average loans and loans receivable outstanding, and related ratios as of the dates and for the periods indicated:

* Annualized
We believe the ACL as of March 31, 2022 was adequate to absorb lifetime losses in the loan portfolio. However, no assurance can be given that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. Among other things, if the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine are worse than we currently expect, or if the effects are prolonged, actual losses could exceed the estimated amounts, which could have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

COVID-19 Related Loan Modifications
During the first quarter of 2020, we received a large number of modification requests from borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Subsequently, many of those requests for modifications were granted during the second quarter of 2020 in accordance with the guidelines of the CARES Act. Many of these modifications had deferral periods that expired in 2020 but some customers were granted additional modifications. Most of the modifications have expired as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, loans that were modified due to hardship caused by the COVID-19 pandemic totaled $10.6 million, which represented approximately 0.1% of our total loan portfolio, a decline from 0.2% total modifications at December 31, 2021. Generally, we have not provided additional modifications under the CARES Act since the end of 2020. Based on our COVID-19 modifications expiration schedule, we expect most, if not all, of our active modifications to expire by the end of 2022.
The following tables present total COVID-19 related modifications by loan type as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

In accordance with the CARES Act and interagency guidance, qualifying modifications provide banks the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. As of March 31, 2022, loans modified under Section 4013 of the CARES Act and interagency guidance were not included as TDRs unless the loans were previously classified as TDR prior to the modification. When a loan is no longer modified under the CARES Act, the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP no longer applies.
At March 31, 2022, we had $32.3 million in loan accrued interest receivables compared to $36.2 million at December 31, 2021. Total accrued interest receivables related to loans modified due to COVID-19 totaled $259 thousand at March 31, 2022 compared to $574 thousand at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, we had $96 thousand in recorded ACL for accrued interest receivables that relate to COVID-19 loan deferrals compared to $151 thousand at December 31, 2021.
OREO
At March 31, 2022, OREO, net totaled $2.0 million, a decrease of $587 thousand compared to $2.6 million at December 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no loans transferred to OREO and we sold one OREO with total carrying balance of $311 thousand. OREO are presented on the balance sheet net of OREO valuation allowances. OREO valuation allowance at March 31, 2022 totaled $1.6 million compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 2021.

Deposits, Other Borrowings, and Convertible Notes
Deposits
Deposits are our primary source of funds used in lending and investment activities. At March 31, 2022, deposits decreased $525.3 million, or 3.5%, to $14.52 billion from $15.04 billion at December 31, 2021. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to decreases in demand deposits and time deposits offset partially by an increase in money market and NOW accounts. Demand deposits decreased $253.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 due mainly to the temporary decline in a single large demand deposit relationship. Time deposits decreased $577.5 million from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 due to a decline in customer deposits of $536.6 million and a decline in brokered time deposits of $40.9 million.
At March 31, 2022, 37.9% of total deposits were noninterest bearing demand deposits, 15.2% were time deposits, and 46.9% were interest bearing demand and savings deposits. At December 31, 2021, 38.3% of total deposits were noninterest bearing demand deposits, 18.5% were time deposits, and 43.2% were interest bearing demand and savings deposits.
At March 31, 2022, we had $459.2 million in brokered deposits and $300.0 million in California State Treasurer deposits compared to $810.9 million in brokered deposits and $300.0 million in California State Treasurer deposits at December 31, 2021. The California State Treasurer time deposits at March 31, 2022 had original maturities of three months, had a weighted average interest rate of 0.29%, and were collateralized with securities with total fair value of $322.0 million. Time deposits of more than $250 thousand at March 31, 2022 totaled $1.07 billion compared to $1.49 billion at December 31, 2021.

FHLB and FRB Borrowings and Other Borrowings
We utilize FHLB and FRB borrowings as a secondary source of funds in addition to deposits, which we consider our primary source of funding. FHLB advances are typically secured by pledged loans and/or securities with a market value at least equal to the outstanding advances plus our investment in FHLB stock. At March 31, 2022, borrowings totaled $772.0 million consisting of $700.0 million in FHLB borrowings and $72.0 million in FRB borrowings compared to $300.0 million in FHLB borrowings at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the average weighted remaining maturity of FHLB borrowings was 1 month and 4 months, respectively. The FRB borrowing at March 31, 2022 was an overnight borrowing.
We did not have federal funds purchased at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Trust Preferred Securities accrue and pay distributions periodically at specified annual rates as provided in the related indentures for the securities. The trusts used the net proceeds from their respective offerings to purchase a like amount of subordinated debentures (the “Debentures”) issued by us. The Debentures are the sole assets of the trusts. Our obligations under the Debentures and related documents, taken together, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by us of the obligations of the trusts. Subordinated debentures totaled $105.7 million at March 31, 2022 and $105.4 million at December 31, 2021. The Trust Preferred Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturity of the Debentures, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indentures. We have the right to redeem the Debentures in whole (but not in part) on or after specific dates, at a redemption price specified in the indentures plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date.
Convertible Notes
In 2018, we issued $217.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% convertible senior notes maturing on May 15, 2038 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. The convertible notes were issued as part of our plan to repurchase common stock. The convertible notes pay interest on a semi-annual basis to holders of the notes. The convertible notes can be called by us, in whole or in part, at any time after five years for the original issued amount in cash. Holders of the notes can put the notes for cash on the fifth, tenth, and fifteenth year of the notes. The net carrying balance of convertible notes at March 31, 2022 was $216.4 million, net of $1.1 million in uncapitalized issuance costs. At December 31, 2021, the net carrying balance of convertible notes was $216.2 million, net of $1.3 million in uncapitalized issuance costs. With the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the convertible notes are accounted for entirely as debt and no longer has a discount or equity portion (see footnote 10 “Subordinated Debentures and Convertible Notes” for additional information regarding convertible notes issued).
Off-Balance-Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations
We routinely engage in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected, in whole or in part, in the consolidated financial statements. These activities are part of our normal course of business and include traditional off-balance-sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate swap contracts, and long-term debt.
Traditional off-balance-sheet credit-related financial instruments are primarily commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These activities could require us to make cash payments to third parties if certain specified future events occur. The contractual amounts represent the extent of our exposure in these off-balance-sheet activities. These activities are necessary to meet the financing needs of our customers.
We enter into interest rate swap contracts under which we are required to either receive cash from or pay cash to counterparties depending on changes in interest rates. We utilize interest rate swap contracts, interest rate floors, and interest rate caps to help manage the risk of changing interest rates. We also sell interest rate swaps to certain adjustable rate commercial loan customers to fix the interest rate on their floating rate loans. When the fixed rate swap is originated with the customer, an identical offsetting swap is also entered into by us with a correspondent bank.
We have outstanding risk participation agreements which are part of syndicated loan transactions that we participated in as a means to earn additional fee income. Risk participation agreements are credit derivatives not designated as hedges in which we share in the risk related to the interest rate swap on participated loans. Credit derivatives are not speculative and are not used to manage interest rate risk in assets or liabilities.
We enter into various stand-alone mortgage-banking derivatives in order to hedge the risk associated with the fluctuation of interest rates. The first type of derivative, an interest rate lock commitment, is a commitment to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding. To mitigate interest rate risk on these rate lock commitments we also enter into forward commitments, or commitments to deliver residential mortgage loans on a future date, also considered derivatives. Net change in the fair value of derivatives represents income recorded from changes in fair value for these mortgage derivatives instruments.
77
We do not anticipate that our current off-balance-sheet activities will have a material impact on our future results of operations or our financial condition. Further information regarding our financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk can be found in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”
Stockholders’ Equity and Regulatory Capital
Historically, our primary source of capital has been the retention of earnings, net of interest payments on Debentures and convertible notes and dividend payments to stockholders. We seek to maintain capital at a level sufficient to assure our stockholders, customers, and regulators that the Holding Company and the Bank are financially sound. For this purpose, we perform ongoing assessments of capital related risks, components of capital, as well as projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and levels of risks.
Total stockholders’ equity was $2.04 billion at March 31, 2022 and $2.09 billion at December 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, stockholders’ equity decreased by $51.9 million due to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $96.8 million and dividends paid of $16.8 million offset partially by net income earned of $60.7 million, and increases in additional paid-in capital consisting of $374 thousand in stock based compensation and $531 thousand in issuance of additional shares of stock.
In January 2022, our Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase plan that authorizes management to repurchase up to $50.0 million of common stock. Stock repurchases through the new plan may be executed through various means, including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or by other means as determined by management and in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. As of March 31, 2022, no shares have been repurchased as part of the stock repurchase plan.
The federal banking agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.00%, a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.00%, and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 common equity capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.50%, to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal banking agencies require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to average total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 4.00% to generally be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. 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 regulations. Failure to maintain this capital conservation buffer results in limits or prohibitions on capital distributions and discretionary compensation payments. Capital requirements apply to us and the Bank separately. 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.
At March 31, 2022, our common equity Tier 1 capital was $1.70 billion compared to $1.66 billion at December 31, 2021. Our Tier 1 capital, defined as stockholders’ equity less intangible assets and includes our trust preferred securities, was $1.80 billion at March 31, 2022 and $1.76 billion at December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022, the common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.02%. The total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 12.49% and the Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 11.68%. The Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at March 31, 2022 was 10.37%.
78
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the most recent regulatory notification generally categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the general regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action. To be generally categorized as “well-capitalized” the Bank must maintain minimum common equity Tier 1 capital, total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios as set forth in the table below.

Liquidity Management
Liquidity risk is the risk of reduction in our earnings or capital that would result if we were not able to meet our obligations when they come due without incurring unacceptable losses. Liquidity risk includes the risk of unplanned decreases or changes in funding sources and changes in market conditions that affect our ability to liquidate assets quickly and with minimum loss of value. Factors considered in liquidity risk management are the stability of the deposit base; the marketability, maturity, and pledging of our investments; the availability of alternative sources of funds; and our demand for credit. The objective of our liquidity management is to have funds available to meet cash flow requirements arising from fluctuations in deposit levels and the demands of daily operations, which include funding of securities purchases, providing for customers’ credit needs, and ongoing repayment of borrowings.
Our primary sources of liquidity are derived from financing activities, which include customer and broker deposits, federal funds facilities, and borrowings from the FHLB and the FRB Discount Window. These funding sources are augmented by payments of principal and interest on loans and securities, proceeds from sale of loans, and the liquidation or sale of securities from our available for sale portfolio. Primary uses of funds include withdrawal of and interest payments on deposits, originations of loans, purchases of investment securities, and payment of operating expenses.
At March 31, 2022, our total borrowing capacity from the FHLB was $4.47 billion of which $3.76 billion was unused and available to borrow. At March 31, 2022, our total borrowing capacity from the FRB Discount Window was $749.4 million of which $677.4 million was unused and available to borrow. In addition to these lines, our liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing cash deposits and time deposits with other banks, liquid investment securities available for sale, and equity investments were $2.33 billion at March 31, 2022 compared to $2.57 billion at December 31, 2021. Cash and cash equivalents were $280.4 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $316.3 million at December 31, 2021. We believe our liquidity sources are sufficient to meet all reasonably foreseeable short-term and intermediate-term needs.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The objective of our asset and liability management activities is to maximize our earnings while maintaining adequate liquidity and an exposure to interest rate risk deemed by management to be acceptable by adjusting the type and mix of assets and liabilities to seek to effectively address changing conditions and risks. Through overall management of our balance sheet and by seeking to manage various risks, we seek to optimize our financial returns within safe and sound parameters. Our operating strategies for attaining this objective include managing net interest margin through appropriate risk/return pricing of assets and liabilities and emphasizing growth in retail deposits, as a percentage of interest bearing liabilities, to reduce our cost of funds. We also seek to improve earnings by controlling noninterest expense and enhancing noninterest income. We also use various methods to protect against our exposure to interest rate fluctuations with the objective of reducing the effects fluctuations might have on associated cash flows or values. Finally, we perform internal analysis to measure, evaluate, and monitor risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk impacting us. Interest rate risk occurs when interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities do not reprice simultaneously and in equal volumes. A key objective of asset and liability management is to manage interest rate risk associated with changing asset and liability cash flows, values of our assets and liabilities, and market interest rate movements. The management of interest rate risk is governed by policies reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors. Our Board delegates responsibility for interest rate risk management to the Asset and Liability Board Committee (“ALCO”) and to the Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALM”), which is composed of the Bank’s senior executives and other designated officers.
The fundamental objective of our ALM is to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations while maintaining adequate levels of liquidity and capital. Our ALM meets regularly to monitor interest rate risk, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of our assets and liabilities, and our investment activities. It also directs changes in the composition of our assets and liabilities. Our strategy has been to reduce the sensitivity of our earnings to interest rate fluctuations by more closely matching the effective maturities or repricing characteristics of our assets and liabilities. Certain assets and liabilities, however, may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Furthermore, interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate prior to changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. We consider the anticipated effects of these factors when implementing our interest rate risk management objectives.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
We monitor interest rate risk through the use of a simulation model that provides us with the ability to simulate our net interest income. In order to measure, at March 31, 2022, the sensitivity of our forecasted net interest income to changing interest rates, both rising and falling interest rate scenarios were projected and compared to base market interest rate forecasts. One application of our simulation model measures the impact of market interest rate changes on the net present value of estimated cash flows from our assets and liabilities, defined as our market value of equity. This analysis assesses the changes in market values of interest rate sensitive financial instruments that would occur in response to immediate and parallel changes in market interest rates.
The impacts on our net interest income and market value of equity exposed to immediate and parallel hypothetical changes in market interest rates as projected by the model we use for this purpose are illustrated in the following table:

LIBOR
Transition
On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after December 31, 2021. As a result, it was expected that after 2021, LIBOR rates would no longer be available or would no longer be viewed as an acceptable benchmark rate.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 and in January 2021 issued ASU 2021-01 which provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. These issuances are intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period and the committee overseeing our transition process is evaluating the optional guidance.
On March 5, 2021, the Intercontinental Exchange Benchmark Administration announced, in conjunction with the FCA, that it would cease the publication of one week and two months U.S. dollar LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021 and would cease the publication of overnight and twelve months U.S. dollar LIBOR settings on June 30, 2023. The FCA also stated that immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1 month, 3 month, and 6 month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings will no longer be representative and representativeness will not be restored. The regulators have also issued guidance strongly encouraging banking organizations to cease using U.S. dollar LIBOR as a reference rate in new contracts as soon as practicable and in any event by December 31, 2021.
The Company has financial instruments that are indexed to LIBOR including investment securities available for sale, loans, derivatives, subordinated debentures, and other financial contracts as of March 31, 2022. The Company has formed a committee to oversee the transition process and to facilitate an orderly transition from LIBOR, and other interbank offered rates, to alternative reference rates for the Company and its clients in a manner consistent with supervisory expectations. Since January 1, 2022, the Company has ceased to originate any LIBOR based financial instruments. The Company has limited LIBOR exposures subsequent to June 2023. The transition away from LIBOR is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For additional information about our associated risks, please refer to Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our 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 has taken into consideration the views of such counsel as to the potential outcome of the claims in determining our accrued loss contingency. There were no accrued loss contingencies for legal claims at March 31, 2022. It is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses. 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, management 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
Management is not aware of any material changes to the risk factors discussed in Part 1, Item 1A, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part 1, Item 1A, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to management, or that management presently believes not to be material, may also result in material and adverse effects on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
The Company did not have any unregistered sales of equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
In January 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock. The stock repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be modified, amended, suspended, or discontinued at the Company’s discretion at any time without notice. No shares have been repurchased as part of this program as of March 31, 2022.

Other Information
On April 22, 2022, the Company entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer Kevin S. Kim. The only change from the Third Amended and Restated Employment Agreement that was entered into on March 28, 2022 was the elimination of the accelerated vesting of any and all outstanding, unvested equity-based awards in connection with the termination of Mr. Kim’s employment with the Company as a result of Mr. Kim (and not the Company) electing not to extend the term of the agreement for an additional twelve months at either the end of the initial five year term or the first of two twelve month renewal terms provided for in the agreement. A copy of the Fourth Amended and Restated Employment Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
