Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

A complete set of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements is a part of the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K filed March 14, 2014. The notes below are included due to material changes in the consolidated financial statements or to provide the reader with additional information not otherwise available. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. All dollar amounts in the following notes are expressed in thousands, except share and per share amounts or where otherwise indicated.

Certain amounts contained in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified where appropriate to conform to the financial statement presentation used in the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income, earnings per share or retained earnings.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Continental Corporation (the “Company”), a bank holding company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, PCB Services Corporation and PCB Loan Services Corporation (both of which are presently inactive). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and normal accruals, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for such interim periods. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as of the date of the balance sheets and income and expenses for the periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2013, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures contained in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2013, consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K.

At June 30, 2014, of the 392 investment securities held, there were 81 in unrealized loss positions. Unrealized losses existed on certain securities classified as obligations of U.S. government agencies, obligations of state and political subdivisions, private-label mortgage-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities and SBA variable rate pools. The unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities and securities that are obligations of U.S. government agencies were deemed to be temporary, as these securities retain strong credit ratings, continue to perform adequately, and are backed by various government-sponsored enterprises. These decreases in fair value are associated with the changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities, and are not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. The decline in value of these securities has resulted from current economic conditions. Although yields on these securities may be below market rates during the period, no loss of principal is expected.

The following table presents a summary of securities in a continuous unrealized loss position at June 30, 2014:

During the second quarter 2014, management reviewed all private label mortgage backed securities for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). During this review, it was determined that other-than-temporary impairment existed on one classified private-label mortgage-backed security. After further analysis, it was also determined that future impairment was possible, based on the performance of the security. Instead of recording OTTI, management sold the security at a loss during second quarter 2014 to limit potential future losses. Therefore, no additional OTTI was booked during the period ended June 30, 2014.

Management’s OTTI evaluation included the use of independently generated third-party credit surveillance reports that analyze the loans underlying each security. These reports include estimates of default rates and severities, life collateral loss rates, and static voluntary prepayment assumptions to generate estimated cash flows at the individual security level. Additionally, management considered factors such as downgraded credit ratings, severity and duration of the impairments, the stability of the issuers, and any discounts paid when the securities were purchased. Management has considered all available information related to the collectability of the impaired investment securities and believes that the estimated credit loss is appropriate.

Following is a tabular roll-forward of the amount of credit-related OTTI recognized in earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and 2013:

 

     Three months ended      Six months ended

At June 30, 2014, six of the Company’s private-label mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $2,050 were classified as substandard as their underlying credit was considered impaired. Securities with an amortized cost of $2,593 and $2,858 were classified as substandard at December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, the projected average life of the securities portfolio was 4.24 years.

NOTE 3 – LOANS, ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES, AND CREDIT QUALITY INDICATORS

Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal net of loan premiums or discounts for purchased loans, net deferred loan origination fees, discounts associated with retained portions of loans sold, and an allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans is calculated using the simple-interest method on daily balances of the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees, net of origination costs and discounts, are amortized over the lives of the loans as adjustments to yield.

At June 30, 2014, outstanding loans to dental professionals totaled $302,822 and represented 29.37% of total outstanding loans compared to dental professional loans of $307,268 or 30.89% of total outstanding loans at December 31, 2013, and $290,543 or 30.25% of total outstanding loans at June 30, 2013. See Note 4 for additional information on the dental loan portfolio. There are no other industry concentrations in excess of 10% of the total loan portfolio. However, as of June 30, 2014, 61.45% of the Company’s loan portfolio was collateralized by real estate and is, therefore, susceptible to changes in real estate market conditions.

The allowance for loan losses is established as an amount that management considers adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans within the portfolio. The allowance consists of general, specific, and unallocated components. The general component is based upon all loans collectively evaluated for impairment. The specific component is based upon all loans individually evaluated for impairment. The unallocated component represents credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have been contemplated in the general risk factors or the specific allowance analysis. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes the collection of principal or interest is unlikely.

The Company performs regular credit reviews of the loan portfolio to determine the credit quality and adherence to underwriting standards. When loans are originated, they are assigned a risk rating that is reassessed periodically during the term of the loan through the credit review process and on an ongoing basis by management. The Company’s internal risk rating methodology assigns risk ratings ranging from one to ten, where a higher rating represents higher risk. The ten-point risk rating categories are a primary factor in determining an appropriate amount for the allowance for loan losses.

Estimated credit losses reflect consideration of all significant factors that affect the collectability of the loan portfolio. The historical loss rate for each group of loans with similar risk characteristics is determined based on the Company’s own loss experience in that group. Historical loss experience and recent trends in losses provide a reasonable starting point for analysis, however they do not by themselves form a sufficient basis to determine the appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses. Qualitative or environmental factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses to differ from historical losses are also considered, including but not limited to:

 

    Changes in international, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments,

 

    Changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of loans,

 

    Changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff,

 

    Changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans,

 

    Changes in the quality of the institution’s loan review system,

 

    Changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans,

 

    The existence and effect of any concentrations of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations,

 

    The effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the institution’s existing portfolio,

 

    Changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices not considered elsewhere in estimating credit losses, and

 

    Changes in the current and future US political environment, including debt ceiling negotiations, government shutdown and healthcare reform, that may affect national, regional and local economic conditions, taxation, or disruption of national or global financial markets.

The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments is determined using a systematic methodology and is monitored regularly based on management’s evaluation of numerous factors. For each portfolio segment, these factors include:

 

    The quality of the current loan portfolio,

 

    The trend in the migration of the loan portfolio’s risk ratings,

 

    The velocity of migration of losses and potential losses,

 

    Current economic conditions,

 

    Loan concentrations,

 

    Loan growth rates,

 

    Past-due and nonperforming trends,

 

    Evaluation of specific loss estimates for all significant problem loans,

 

    Recovery experience, and

 

    Peer comparison loss rates.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company uses the following loan grades, which are also often used by regulators when assessing the credit quality of a loan portfolio.

Pass – Credit exposure in this category ranges between the highest credit quality to average credit quality. Primary repayment sources generate satisfactory debt service coverage under normal conditions. Cash flow from recurring sources is expected to continue to produce adequate debt service capacity. There are many levels of credit quality contained in the Pass definition, but none of the loans contained in this category rise to the level of Special Mention. This category includes loans with an internal risk rating of 1-6.

Special Mention – A special mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. The Bank strictly and carefully employs the FDIC definition in assessing assets that may apply to this category. It is apparent that in many cases asset weaknesses relevant to this definition either (1) better fit a definition of a “well-defined weakness,” or (2) in management’s experience ultimately migrate to worse risk grade categories, such as Substandard and Doubtful. Consequently, management elects to downgrade most potential Special Mention credits to Substandard or Doubtful, and therefore adopts a conservative risk grade process in the use of the Special Mention risk grade. This category includes loans with an internal risk rating of 7.

Substandard – A Substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loans in this category are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified Substandard. This category includes loans with an internal risk rating of 8.

Doubtful – An asset classified as Doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. This category includes loans with an internal risk rating of 9.

Management strives to consistently apply these definitions when allocating its loans by loan grade. The loan portfolio is continuously monitored for changes in credit quality and management takes appropriate action to update the loan risk ratings accordingly. Management has not changed the Company’s policy towards its use of credit quality indicators during the periods reported.

Past Due and Nonaccrual Loans

The Company uses the terms “past due” and “delinquent” interchangeably. Amortizing loans are considered past due or delinquent based upon the number of contractually required payments not made. Delinquency status for all contractually matured loans, commercial and commercial real estate loans with non-monthly amortization, and all other extensions of credit is determined based upon the number of calendar months past due.

The following tables present an aging analysis of past due and nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013:

Impaired Loans

Regular credit reviews of the portfolio are performed to identify loans that are considered potentially impaired. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, the Company is unlikely to collect all principal and interest due according to the terms of the loan agreement. When the amount of the impairment represents a confirmed loss, it is charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Impaired loans are often reported net of government guarantees to the extent that the guarantees are expected to be collected. Impaired loans generally include all loans classified as nonaccrual and troubled debt restructurings. Impaired loans are included in the specific calculation of allowance for loan losses.

Accrual of interest is discontinued on impaired loans when management believes that, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of principal or interest is doubtful. Accrued but uncollected interest is generally reversed when loans are placed on nonaccrual status. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received satisfying all delinquent principal and interest amounts, and the prospects for future payments in accordance with the loan agreement appear relatively certain. In accordance with GAAP, payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied to the principal balance and no interest income is recognized. Interest income may be recognized on impaired loans that are not on nonaccrual status.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In the normal course of business, the Company may modify the terms of certain loans, attempting to protect as much of its investment as possible. Management evaluates the circumstances surrounding each modification to determine whether it is a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). TDRs exist when 1) the restructuring constitutes a concession, and 2) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties.

The following table displays the Company’s TDRs by class at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013:

The recorded investment in TDRs on nonaccrual status totaled $2,260, $1,597, and $2,081 at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, respectively. The Company’s policy is that loans placed on nonaccrual will typically remain on nonaccrual status until all principal and interest payments are brought current and the prospect for future payment in accordance with the loan agreement appears relatively certain. The Company’s policy generally refers to six months of payment performance as sufficient to warrant a return to accrual status.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company identified four TDRs that were newly considered impaired for which impairment was previously measured under the Company’s general loan loss allowance methodology. At June 30, 2014, the total recorded investment in such receivables was $2,455, and the associated allowance for loan losses was $0.

The types of modifications offered can generally be described in the following categories:

Rate Modification - A modification in which the interest rate is modified.

Term Modification - A modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments, or frequency of payments is changed.

Interest-only Modification - A modification in which the loan is converted to interest-only payments for a period of time.

Combination Modification - Any other type of modification, including the use of multiple types of modifications.

NOTE 5 – FEDERAL FUNDS AND OVERNIGHT FUNDS PURCHASED

At June 30, 2014, the Company had unsecured federal funds borrowing lines with various correspondent banks totaling $129,000. At June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, there was $6,410, $5,150, and $7,660 outstanding on these lines, respectively.

The Company also has a secured overnight borrowing line available from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”) that totaled $101,122, $92,579 and $93,314 at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014, the FRB borrowing line was secured by the pledge of approximately $135,964 of commercial loans under the Company’s Borrower-In-Custody program. At June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, there were no outstanding borrowings on this line.

NOTE 6 – FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK BORROWINGS

The Company has a borrowing limit with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) equal to 30% of total assets, subject to the value of discounted collateral pledged. The Company does have the ability to access the FHLB excess stock pool, thus borrowing is not limited by FHLB stock held. At June 30, 2014, the maximum borrowing line was $449,629; however, the FHLB borrowing line was limited by the discounted value of collateral pledged. The Company had pledged $461,303 in real estate loans to the FHLB that had a discounted value of $284,453. There was $164,500 borrowed on this line at June 30, 2014.

At December 31, 2013, the maximum FHLB borrowing line was $434,963, and the Company had pledged real estate loans and securities to the FHLB with a discounted value of $229,547. There was $160,000 borrowed on this line at December 31, 2013.

At June 30, 2013, the maximum FHLB borrowing line was $429,322, and the Company had pledged real estate loans and securities to the FHLB with a discounted collateral value of $265,048. There was $162,000 borrowed on this line at June 30, 2013.

NOTE 7 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company’s 2006 Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan (the “2006 SOEC Plan”) authorizes the award of up to 1,550,000 shares in share-based awards. The awards granted under this plan are performance-based and are subject to vesting. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may impose any terms or conditions on the vesting of an award that it determines to be appropriate. Awards granted generally vest over four years and have a maximum life of ten years. Awards may be granted at exercise prices of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the grant date.

Pursuant to the 2006 SOEC Plan, incentive stock options (“ISOs”), nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) may be awarded to attract and retain the best available personnel to the Company and its subsidiaries. SARs may be settled in common stock or cash as determined at the date of issuance. Liability-based awards (including all cash-settled SARs) have no impact on the number of shares available to be issued within the plan. Additionally, non-qualified option awards and restricted stock awards may be granted to directors under the terms of this plan.

Prior to April 2006, ISO and non-qualified option awards were granted to employees and directors under the Company’s 1999 Employees’ Stock Option Plan and the Company’s 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan. The Company has stock options outstanding under both of these plans. Subsequent to the annual shareholders’ meeting in April 2006, all shares available under these plans were deregistered and are no longer available for future grants.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, 14,996 restricted shares were granted and issued to directors with no restrictions imposed. Additionally, 127,051 RSUs were granted to employees during the first six months of 2014. Of the 127,051 RSUs granted, 116,771 vest over four years, 9,902 vest over two years, and 378 vested immediately. Shares of common stock will be issued as soon as practicable upon vesting. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, 10,179 restricted shares were granted and issued to directors with no restrictions imposed. Additionally, 145,420 RSUs were granted to employees during the first six months of 2013 which vest over four years. No other awards were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014, and 2013.

The following table summarizes the shares and the grant-date fair market values of the equity-based awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2014, and 2013:

Cash and cash equivalents – The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities available-for-sale – Fair value is based on quoted market prices. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Loans – For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair value is based on carrying values. Fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable, and consider credit risk.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock – The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Interest receivable and payable – The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their fair value.

Bank-owned life insurance – The carrying amount is based on cash surrender value which approximates fair value.

Swap derivative – Fair value is based on quoted market prices.

Deposits – Fair value of demand, interest bearing demand and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair value of time deposits is estimated using the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The Company uses an independent third-party to establish the fair value of time deposits.

Federal funds and overnight funds purchased – The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short-term nature of these borrowings.

Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings – Fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings is estimated by discounting future cash flows at rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Table of Contents

Junior subordinated debentures – Fair value of junior subordinated debentures is estimated by discounting future cash flows at rates currently available for debt with similar credit risk, terms and remaining maturities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments – The carrying amount and fair value are based on fees charged for similar commitments and are not material.

The Company also adheres to the FASB guidance with regards to ASC 820, “Fair Value Measures.” This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement requires fair value measurement disclosure of all assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. The Company determines fair value based upon quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as matrix or model pricing, when market quotes are not readily accessible or available. The valuation techniques used are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

 

    Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

 

    Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

 

    Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The Company’s own data used to develop unobservable inputs is adjusted for market consideration when reasonably available.

Financial instruments, measured at fair value, are broken down in the tables below by recurring or nonrecurring measurement status. Recurring assets are initially measured at fair value and are required to be remeasured at fair value in the financial statements at each reporting date. Assets measured on a nonrecurring basis are assets that, due to an event or circumstance, were required to be remeasured at fair value after initial recognition in the financial statements at some time during the reporting period.

The following table presents information about the level in the fair value hierarchy for the Company’s assets and liabilities not measured and carried at fair value as of June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013:

Table of Contents

The following is a description of the inputs and valuation methodologies used for assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value for all classes of available-for-sale securities is estimated by obtaining quoted market prices for identical assets, where available. If such prices are not available, fair value is based on independent asset pricing services and models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections, and cash flows. Fair value of the swap derivative is determined by FTN Financial, and represents an active price quote which they would pay or the Bank would be charged to leave the swap early. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the periods reported.

The following table provides a reconciliation of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and 2013:

The Company utilizes FTN Financial as a third-party pricing service to estimate fair value on all of its available-for-sale securities. The inputs used to value all securities include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data, including market research, market indicators, and industry and economic trends. Additional inputs specific to each asset type are as follows:

 

    Obligations of U.S. government agencies – TRACE reported trades.

 

    Obligations of states and political subdivisions – MSRB reported trades, material event notices, and Municipal Market Data (MMD) benchmark yields.

 

    Private-label mortgage-backed securities – new issue data, monthly payment information, and collateral performance (whole loan collateral).

 

    Mortgage-backed securities – TBA prices and monthly payment information.

 

    SBA variable pools – TBA prices and monthly payment information.

Inputs may be prioritized differently on any given day for any security and not all inputs listed are available for use in the evaluation process on any given day for each security evaluation.

Table of Contents

The valuation methodology used by asset type includes:

 

    Obligations of U.S. government agencies – security characteristics, defined sector break-down, benchmark yields, applied base spread, yield to maturity (bullet structures), corporate action adjustment, and evaluations based on T+3 settlement.

 

    Obligations of states and political subdivisions – security characteristics, benchmark yields, applied base spread, yield to worst or market convention, ratings updates, prepayment schedules (housing bonds), material event notice adjustments, and evaluations based on T+3 settlement.

 

    Private-label mortgage-backed securities – security characteristics, prepayment speeds, cash flows, TBA, Treasury and swap curves, IO/PO strips or floating indexes, applied base spread, spread adjustments, yield to worst or market convention, ratings updates (whole-loan collateral), and evaluations based on T+0 settlement.

 

    Mortgage-backed securities – security characteristics, TBA, Treasury, or floating index benchmarks, spread to TBA levels, prepayment speeds, applied spreads, and evaluations based on T+0 settlement.

 

    SBA variable pools – security characteristics, TBA, Treasury, or floating index benchmarks, spread to TBA levels, prepayment speeds, applied spreads, and evaluations based on T+0 settlement.

The third-party pricing service follows multiple review processes to assess the available market, credit and deal-level information to support its valuation estimates. If sufficient objectively verifiable information is not available to support a security’s valuation, an alternate independent evaluation source will be used.

The Company’s securities portfolio was valued through its independent third-party pricing service using evaluated pricing models and quoted prices based on market data. For further assurance, the Company’s estimate of fair value was compared to an additional independent third-party estimate at June 30, 2014, and the Company obtained key inputs for a sample of securities across sectors and evaluated those inputs for reasonableness. This analysis was performed at the individual security level and no material variances were noted.

There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the periods reported.

Table of Contents

The following is a description of the inputs and valuation methodologies used for assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Loans measured for impairment (net of government guarantees and specific reserves) include the estimated fair value of collateral-dependent loans, less collectible government guarantees, as well as certain noncollateral-dependent loans measured for impairment with an allocated specific reserve. When a collateral-dependent loan is identified as impaired, the value of the loan is measured using the current fair value of the collateral less selling costs. The fair value of collateral is generally estimated by obtaining external appraisals which are usually updated every 6 to 12 months based on the nature of the impaired loans. Certain noncollateral-dependent loans measured for impairment with an allocated specific reserve are valued based upon the estimated net realizable value of the loan. If the estimated fair value of the impaired loan, less collectible government guarantees, is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized as a charge-off through the allowance for loan losses. The carrying value of the loan is adjusted to the estimated fair value. The carrying value of loans fully charged off is zero.

Other real estate owned represents real estate which the Company has taken control of in partial or full satisfaction of loans. At the time of foreclosure, other real estate owned is recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or fair value less costs to sell, which becomes the property’s new basis. Any write downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, management periodically orders appraisals or performs valuations to ensure that the real estate is carried at the lower of its new cost basis or fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. Appraisals are generally updated every 6 to 12 months on other real estate owned. Fair value adjustments on other real estate owned are recognized within net loss on real estate owned. The loss represents impairments on other real estate owned for fair value adjustments based on the fair value of the real estate.

There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the periods reported.

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Derivative instruments are entered into primarily as a risk management tool of the Company to help manage its interest rate risk position. Financial derivatives are recorded at fair value as other assets and other liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. For a fair value hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument and changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability are recognized currently in earnings. For a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument, to the extent that it is effective, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to earnings as the hedged transaction impacts net income. Any ineffective portion of a cash flow hedge is recognized currently in earnings.

During the second quarter 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with an $8,000 notional amount to convert its variable-rate Junior Subordinated Debenture debt into a fixed rate for a term of seven years at a rate of 2.73%. The derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge. The hedge meets the definition of highly effective and the Company expects the hedge to be highly effective throughout the remaining term of the swap. The fair value of the derivative instrument at June 30, 2014, was a $218 unrealized gain, which is recorded in the other asset section of the consolidated balance sheet, net of the tax effect. No gain or loss was recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2014, related to interest rate swaps.

The Company maintains written documentation for the hedge. This documentation identifies the hedging objective and strategy, the hedging instrument, the instrument being hedged, the reasoning behind the assertion that the hedge is highly effective and the methodology for measuring ongoing hedge effectiveness and ineffectiveness. The Company pledged $400 under collateral arrangements to satisfy collateral requirements associated with the interest rate swap contract.

NOTE 10 – REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and receive periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. In addition, they are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to leverage assets. Management believes that, as of June 30, 2014, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of June 30, 2014, and according to Federal Reserve and FDIC guidelines, the Bank was considered to be well-capitalized. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table.

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

The following discussion is intended to provide a more comprehensive review of the Company’s operating results and financial condition than can be obtained from reading the Consolidated Financial Statements alone. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in this report. Please refer also to our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K. All dollar amounts except share and per share data, are expressed in thousands of dollars.

In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding projected results for third quarter 2014 and full year 2014, the expected interest rate environment and its impact on our business, loan yields and expected prepayments, net interest margin, expectations regarding nonperforming assets, loan growth, earning asset mix, expected cash flows from the securities portfolio, expectations regarding the Company’s securities portfolio and the sale of securities, their value and yields, core deposits and cost, capital levels, liquidity and dividends, expectations regarding certain large depositor relationships, the outcome of legal proceedings, the 2014 provision for loan losses, management’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions that are not historical facts, and other statements identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “should,” “projects,” “seeks,” “estimates” or words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations in the forward-looking statements, including those set forth in this report, and our other reports filed with the SEC:

 

    Local and national economic conditions could be less favorable than expected or could have a more direct and pronounced effect on us than expected and adversely affect our ability to continue internal growth at historical rates and maintain the quality of our earning assets.

 

    The local housing or real estate market could decline.

 

    The risks presented by an economic recession, which could adversely affect credit quality, collateral values, including real estate collateral, investment values, liquidity and loan originations, and loan portfolio delinquency rates.

 

    Our concentration in loans to dental professionals exposes us to the risks affecting dental practices in general.

 

    Interest rate changes could significantly reduce net interest income and negatively affect funding sources.

 

    Projected business increases following any future strategic expansion or opening of new branches could be lower than expected.

 

    Competition among financial institutions could increase significantly.

 

    The goodwill we have recorded in connection with acquisitions could become impaired, which may have an adverse impact on our earnings and capital.

 

    The reputation of the financial services industry could deteriorate, which could adversely affect our ability to access markets for funding and to acquire and retain customers.

 

    The efficiencies we may expect to receive from any investments in personnel, acquisitions, and infrastructure may not be realized.

 

    The level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs or changes in the estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements may increase.

 

    Changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities, executive compensation, and insurance) could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

    Acts of war or terrorism, or natural disasters, such as the effects of pandemic flu, may adversely impact our business.

 

    The timely development and acceptance of new banking products and services and perceived overall value of these products and services by users may adversely impact our ability to increase market share and control expenses.

 

    Changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other accounting standard setters, may impact the results of our operations.

 

    The costs and effects of legal, regulatory and compliance developments, including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries and the results of regulatory examinations or reviews, may adversely impact our ability to increase market share and control expenses, or may result in substantial uninsured liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

SUMMARY OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, commonly referred to as the “FASB.” The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that we follow to ensure we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in this report are to the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification,” sometimes referred to as the “Codification” or “ASC.”

The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in future periods. Significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K. Management believes that the following policies and those disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K should be considered critical under the SEC definition:

Nonaccrual Loans

Accrual of interest is discontinued on contractually delinquent loans when management believes that, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of principal or interest is doubtful. At a minimum, loans that are past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest by 90 days or more are placed on nonaccrual status, unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received satisfying all delinquent principal and interest amounts, and the prospects for future payments in accordance with the loan agreement appear relatively certain. In accordance with GAAP, payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied to the principal balance and no interest income is recognized.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

The allowance for loan losses on outstanding loans is classified as a contra-asset account offsetting outstanding loans, and the allowance for unfunded commitments is classified as an “other” liability on the balance sheet. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged against earnings. The balances of the allowance for loan losses for outstanding loans and unfunded commitments are maintained at an amount management believes will be adequate to absorb known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio and commitments to loan funds. The appropriate balance of the allowance for loan losses is determined by applying loss factors to the credit exposure from outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments. Estimated loss factors are based on subjective measurements, including management’s assessment of the internal risk classifications, changes in the nature of the loan portfolios, industry concentrations, and the impact of current local, regional, and national economic factors on the quality of the loan portfolio. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are reasonably possible and may have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In the normal course of business, the Company may modify the terms of certain loans, attempting to protect as much of its investment as possible. Management evaluates the circumstances surrounding each modification to determine whether it is a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). TDRs exist when 1) the restructuring constitutes a concession, and 2) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. Additional information regarding the Company’s TDRs can be found in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

At June 30, 2014, the Company had $23,555 in goodwill and other intangible assets. In accordance with financial accounting standards, assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but instead are periodically tested for impairment. Management performs an impairment analysis of its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives at least annually and has determined that there was no impairment as of December 31, 2013, the date the most recent analysis was performed.

Fair Value Measurements

GAAP defines fair value as the 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. FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” establishes a three-level hierarchy for disclosure of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to the valuation methodology used for measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market-derived or market-based information obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect our estimates about market data. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. 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. Additional information regarding the Company’s fair value measurements can be found in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. ASU 2014-01 permits an entity to make an accounting policy election to account for it’s investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently reviewing the requirements of ASU No. 2014-01, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. ASU 2014-04 clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and can be applied with a modified retrospective transition method or prospectively. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. ASU 2014-11improves the financial reporting of repurchase agreements and other similar transactions by introducing two accounting changes; (1) Repurchase-to-maturity transactions will be accounted for as secured borrowing transactions on the balance sheet. Previously, they were accounted for as sales when certain conditions were met. (2) For repurchase financing arrangements, an entity will account separately for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty. It also requires enhanced disclosures about repurchase agreements and other similar transactions. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-11, is not expected it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. ASU 2014-12 was issued to clarify a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation. As a result, the target is not reflected in the estimation of the award’s grant date fair value. Compensation cost would be recognized over the required service period, if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-12, is not expected it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company earned $4,148 or $0.23 per diluted share in second quarter 2014, up $424 or 11.39% over second quarter 2013. The improvement in net income was due to increased operating revenues, consisting of net interest income plus noninterest income, lower noninterest expense, including no provision for loan losses. The increase in operating revenues resulted from higher earning asset volumes and improvement in the net interest margin in second quarter 2014 when compared to second quarter 2013, combined with growth in earning asset volumes, specifically loans. The reduction in noninterest expense was primarily due to the reduction in bankcard processing expense, lower other real estate expense, and a decline in the other expense category, which in second quarter 2013 included a non-recurring expense of $100. The Company booked no provision for loan losses during the second quarter 2014 reflecting improvement in the credit quality of the loan portfolio.

During second quarter 2014, the Company continued to experience organic growth in outstanding loans. Outstanding loans at June 30, 2014, were $1,031,129, up $10,014 over March 31, 2014, outstanding loans. For the first six months of the year, outstanding loans were up $36,360 over year-end December 31, 2013, which represents an annualized growth rate of 7.37%. Loan growth during the first six months of 2014 was primarily in the permanent real estate and commercial and industrial loan categories. Outstanding core deposits at June 30, 2014, were $1,026,542, up $35,609 during the second quarter 2014, reflecting a typical seasonal pattern for the second quarter.

On May 6, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of the Company’s shares, or 892,500 shares with the purchases to take place over a 12-month period. During the second quarter 2014, the Company repurchased 134,722 shares at a weighted average price of $13.36 per share.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information

Management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures to monitor the Company’s performance. While we believe the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides additional insight into our operating performance, readers of this report are urged to review the GAAP results as presented in the Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report.

Table of Contents

The Company presents a computation of tangible equity along with tangible book value and return on average tangible equity. The Company defines tangible equity as total shareholders’ equity before goodwill and core deposit intangible assets. Tangible book value is calculated as tangible equity divided by total shares outstanding. Return on average tangible equity is calculated as net income divided by average tangible equity. We believe that tangible equity and certain tangible equity ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy which may be used when making period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons. Tangible equity and tangible equity ratios are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures and should be viewed in conjunction with total shareholders’ equity, book value and return on average equity. The following table presents a reconciliation of total shareholders’ equity to tangible equity.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the primary source of the Company’s revenue. Net interest income is the difference between interest income derived from earning assets, principally loans, and interest expense associated with interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits. The volume and mix of earning assets and funding sources, market rates of interest, demand for loans, and the availability of deposits affect net interest income.

The net interest margin for second quarter 2014 was 4.34%, an increase of 2 basis points over the first quarter 2014 margin of 4.32%, and a 15 basis point improvement over the 4.19% reported for second quarter 2013. The improvement in the linked-quarter net interest margin was primarily due to higher yields on the Company’s securities portfolio. The increase in the second quarter 2014 net interest margin over second quarter 2013 was primarily due to the following factors: 1) an improvement in the earning asset mix as average higher yielding loans were a larger portion of earning assets versus lower yielding securities; 2) increased yield on the securities portfolio; and 3) a lower cost of funds as the cost of interest-bearing core deposits.

The prolonged historically low interest rate environment, highly competitive pricing on new, existing loans, and declining yields available in the Company’s securities portfolio, and the fact that core deposits are priced at or near virtual floors, suggests long-term margin compression. However, the Company anticipates continued loan growth and to the extent higher yielding loans replace lower yielding securities, thus the Company believes that some stabilization of the net interest margin is expected during the remainder of 2014.

Table I shows that earning asset yields in second quarter 2014 were 4.68%, up 11 basis points over the 4.57% recorded in second quarter 2013. The improvement in the yield on earning assets was primarily attributable to an increase of 64 basis points in the weighted average yield on securities portfolio from 2.10% in second quarter 2013 to 2.74% in second quarter 2014, which more than offset a 22 basis point decline in the yield on the loan portfolio. Also contributing to the higher earning asset yield was the change in the mix of earning assets as higher yielding loans averaged 74.35% of earning assets during second quarter 2014 compared to 71.26% during second quarter 2013.

The cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined by 5 basis points from 0.55% in second quarter 2013 to 0.50% in second quarter 2014. The rate on interest-bearing core deposits declined by 6 basis points, which was partially offset by an increase of 3 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding. The decrease in the cost of core deposits was primarily due to lower rates on money market accounts, NOW accounts, and core time deposits. Core time deposits showed the most significant decline moving from 0.76% in second quarter 2013 to 0.55% in second quarter 2014. The higher cost of wholesale funding was mostly due to an increase on the rate of non-core time deposits of 11 basis points from 1.25% to 1.36%. This category of wholesale funding consists primarily of long-term callable brokered time deposits, and the increase in the rate reflects the Company’s strategy to lengthen the maturity structure of its liabilities to mitigate interest rate risk in a rising rate environment.

(2) Defined by the Company as interest checking, money market, savings and local non- public time deposits, including local non-public time deposits in excess of $100.

The second quarter 2014 rate/volume analysis shows that net interest income increased by $949 over second quarter 2013. Second quarter 2014 interest income including loan fees increased by $847 from the same quarter last year with higher volumes of earning assets increasing interest income by $884, which was partially offset by a $37 decline in interest income due to lower rates, specifically lower rates on the loan portfolio. Also contributing to the increase in net interest income was a decline in interest expense of $102 in second quarter 2014 when compared to the same quarter last year. The decline in interest expense was related to lower rates on both core deposits and wholesale funding, combined with a change in the mix of both core deposits and wholesale funding.

Table of Contents

The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was 4.33%, an increase of 10 basis points over the 4.23% net interest margin for the same period in 2013. Table III shows that earning asset yields increased by 5 basis points to 4.67% for the first six months of 2014, when compared to 4.62% for the same period in 2013. The improvement in earning assets yields was primarily due to the following factors: 1) a change in the mix of earning assets as higher yielding loans were proportionally more of total earnings assets; and 2) an increase of 52 basis points in the weighted average taxable-equivalent yield of the securities portfolio as slower prepayment speeds on mortgage-backed securities reduced the amortization of premium, thus increasing the yield on this portion of the securities portfolio. Partially offsetting these improvements was a 28 basis point decline in the yield on the loan portfolio from 5.65% for the first half of 2013 compared to 5.37% for the same period in 2014.

Table III also shows that the overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities through June 30, 2014, was down 5 basis points from 0.55 % at June 30, 2013, to 0.50% at June 30, 2014, and also contributed to the improved net interest margin. The cost of interest-bearing core deposits fell by 6 basis points from 0.36% to 0.30% with the most significant decline coming in the core time deposit category. The cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding through June 30, 2014, was virtually unchanged from the prior year same period.

(1) Tax-exempt income has been adjusted to a tax-equivalent basis at a 35% tax rate. The amount of such adjustment was an addition to recorded income of approximately $523 and $507 for the YTD period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

(2) Interest income includes recognized loan origination fees of $267 and $276 for the YTD period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The rate/volume analysis for the six months ended June 30, 2014, in Table IV, shows that interest income including loan fees increased by $1,441 over the same period in 2013. The increase in interest income due to higher volumes of earning assets was $1,989 and was primarily centered in loans. The increase in interest income due to higher volumes was partially offset by a decline in interest income of $548 due to lower rates on earning assets as a decline in interest income due to lower rates on loans of $1,367 was partially offset by an increase in interest income of $765 due to improved yields on the securities portfolio. The rate/volume analysis shows that interest expense through June 30, 2014, decreased by $186 from the same period last year. Overall, lower rates on both interest-bearing core deposits and wholesale funding caused a $136 drop in interest expense, while a change in the volume mix of interest-bearing liabilities lowered interest expense by $50.

The Company booked no provision for loan losses through June 30, 2014, compared to a provision for loan losses of $250 for the same period last year. The Company has now booked no provision for loan losses for the last five consecutive quarters. The decrease in the provision was primarily the result of a reduction in the level of classified loans and nonperforming assets. The Company’s classified assets at June 30, 2014, were 24.72% of regulatory capital compared to 29.02% and 33.82% of regulatory capital at December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, respectively. Net loan charge offs through June 30, 2014, were $242 or annualized 0.05% of average loans, compared to net charge offs of $292 or 0.06% of average loans recorded for the same period in 2013. During the second quarter 2014, the Company recorded net recoveries of $281. The allowance for loan losses for outstanding loans at June 30, 2014, was $15,675 or 1.52% of outstanding loans compared to 1.60% and 1.70% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, respectively. The decline in the allowance as a percentage of outstanding loans is also reflective of improved credit quality of the loan portfolio. In addition, the allowance as a percentage of net nonperforming loans was 340.32%, compared to 345.42% and 254.62% at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, $9,531 of loans (net of government guarantees) were classified as impaired. A specific allowance of $143 (included in the ending allowance at June 30, 2014) was assigned to these loans. That compares to impaired loans of $8,476 and a specific allowance assigned of $57 at December 31, 2013.

Total nonperforming assets, net of government guarantees, were $16,137, or 1.08% of total assets at June 30, 2014. That compares to nonperforming assets of $20,963 or 1.45% of total assets at December 31, 2013, and $24,226 or 1.69% of total assets at June 30, 2013. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2014, consisted of $4,606 in nonaccrual loans (net of government guarantees), no loans were 90 days past due and still accruing interest, and $11,531 in other real estate owned.

(1)  Classified asset ratio is defined as the sum of all loan-related contingent liabilities and loans internally graded substandard or worse (net of government guarantees), adversely classified securities, and other real estate owned, divided by total consolidated Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses.

Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2014, declined $8,089 from the same period last year, and declined $4,826 from December 31, 2013. The majority of the decline in nonperforming assets from year-end and one year ago occurred in other real estate owned and resulted from the sale of a commercial property during the first six months of 2014, carried in other real estate owned and valued at approximately $3,500. Other real estate owned at June 30, 2014, consisted of four properties, one of which is a commercial land development project valued at $10,040 and made up 87.07% of the other real estate owned category. The Company is actively marketing this property; however the location and nature of the property make it susceptible to possible future valuation write-downs as new appraisals become available.

Noninterest Income

Year-to-date June 30, 2014, noninterest income was $2,480, down $335 or 11.90% from the same period last year. The decline in noninterest income in the first six months of 2014 when compared to the same period last year was primarily due to merchant bankcard processing fees as this service was outsourced during fourth quarter 2013 and resulted in a $338 drop in merchant fees in the first six months of 2014. This outsourcing also resulted in the near elimination of bankcard processing expense. Improved service charge revenue of $109 partially offset the decline in merchant fees. The improvement in service charge revenue was the result of implementing new account analysis charges effective January 1, 2014. During the second quarter 2014, a classified private-label mortgage backed security was sold at a loss of $100. The loss in the second quarter 2014 more than offset the gain on sale of securities of $63 recorded during first quarter 2014. Based on the Company’s internal analysis, it was determined that other-than-temporary-impairment was required on this security. After further analysis, it was also determined that future impairment was possible and additional losses could result in future impairment charges. Recognizing the loss on sale limited the potential future losses.

Noninterest Expense

Year-to-date June 30, 2014, noninterest expense was $18,782, a decrease of $1,496 or 7.38% from the same period last year. When merger expenses of $1,246 are excluded from 2013 noninterest expense, noninterest expense through June 30, 2014, was down $250 from last year. A $1,109 or 10.27% increase in personnel expense for the first half of 2014 was offset by declines in business development of $324, other real estate expense of $338, bankcard processing expense of $263, and the other expense category of $250. The decline in the other expense category was primarily due to lower travel costs and non-recurring expense of $100 recorded in 2013.

At the June 2014 board meeting the Company’s board of directors approved a deferred compensation plan. The initial plan is a qualified unfunded plan, which contains no employer defined contribution or benefit. This plan is open to Senior Vice Presidents and above, and the board of directors. While the plan was in place at quarter end, deferrals will not begin until August 2014.

BALANCE SHEET

Loans

At June 30, 2014, outstanding loans were $1,031,129, up $36,360 from December 31, 2013, and up $70,696 from June 30, 2013. Loan growth during the first six months of 2014 was comprised of a diverse expansion in several core lending segments. A summary of outstanding loans by market at June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013, and June 30, 2013, follows:

 

     Period Ended

All of the Company’s primary markets had an increase in outstanding loans at June 30, 2014, during the first half of 2014. Net loan growth is expected to continue in 2014 due to the addition of experienced market lenders and solid pipelines in all markets, combined with a resurgent regional economy.

Outstanding loans to dental professionals, which are comprised of both local and national loans, at June 30, 2014, totaled $302,822 or 29.37% of the loan portfolio, compared to $307,268 or 30.89% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2013. While the Company’s national dental loans increased by $5,125 since December 31, 2013 and are now represented in 31 states, local dental loans contracted due to amortization of the existing portfolio and intense pricing competition. At June 30, 2014, $13,967 or 4.61% of the outstanding dental loans were supported by government guarantees. Loans to dental professionals include loans for such purposes as starting up a practice, acquisition of a practice, equipment financing, owner-occupied facilities, and working capital. National dental loans are limited only to acquisition of a seasoned practice by experienced dental professionals, practice refinances and owner-occupied real estate loans.

In addition to loan growth in the dental industry, growth was also experienced in the wider healthcare field with loans to physicians, veterinarians, optometrists, and medical specialists. The healthcare portfolio, other than dental, experienced growth during the quarter. This segment grew 13.75% over year-end to $70,329 as of June 30, 2014. The majority of the expansion was in veterinary lending in both practice acquisition and owner occupied real estate financing.

Additional data on the Company’s dental loan portfolio and the credit quality of this portfolio can be found in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

Detailed credit quality data on the entire loan portfolio can be found in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

Securities

At June 30, 2014, the balance of securities available-for-sale was $344,645, down $2,741 from December 31, 2013, and down $12,749 from June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2014, the portfolio had an unrealized pre-tax gain of $5,876 compared to an unrealized pre-tax loss of $242, at December 31, 2013. The improvement in the unrealized gain or market value of the securities portfolio during the first half of 2014 was due to a decline in longer-term interest rates and tightening of spreads. The average life and duration of the portfolio at June 30, 2014, was 4.2 years and 3.8 years, both unchanged from December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014, $25,964 of the securities portfolio were pledged as collateral for public deposits in Oregon and Washington and for repurchase agreements.

The Company continued to structure the portfolio to provide consistent cash flow and reduce the market value volatility of the portfolio in a rising rate environment in light of the Company’s current liability sensitive position. The portfolio is structured to generate sufficient cash flow to allow reinvestment at higher rates should interest rates move up or to fund loan growth in the first half of 2014. In a stable rate environment, approximately $47,000 in cash flow is anticipated over the next 12 months. Going forward, purchases will be dependent upon core deposit growth, loan growth, and the Company’s interest rate risk position.

At June 30, 2014, $4,443 or 1.29% of the total securities portfolio was composed of private-label mortgage-backed securities. Management has booked OTTI in previous reporting periods on this portion of the portfolio totaling approximately $227. During the second quarter 2014, a classified private-label mortgage backed security was sold at a loss of $100. The loss in the second quarter 2014 more than offset the gain on sale of securities of $63 recorded during first quarter 2014. It was determined that an other-than-temporary-impairment was required on this security. After further analysis, it was also determined that future impairment was possible and additional losses could result in future additional impairment charges. The sale at the loss limited the potential future losses.

Management reviews monthly all available information, including current and projected default rates and current and projected loss severities, related to the collectability of its potentially impaired investment securities to determine if an additional OTTI is required. No additional OTTI was recorded during the first six months of 2014. Recognition of additional OTTI on the private-label mortgage-backed portion of the portfolio is possible in future quarters depending upon economic conditions, default rates on home mortgages, loss severities on foreclosed homes, unemployment levels, and home values.

In management’s opinion, the remaining securities in the portfolio in an unrealized loss position are considered only temporarily impaired. The Company has no intent, nor is it more likely than not that it will be required, to sell its impaired securities before their recovery. The impairment is due to changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities, and not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. The decline in value of these securities has resulted from current economic conditions. Although yields on these securities may be below market rates during the period, no loss of principal is expected.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

At June 30, 2014, the Company had a recorded balance of $22,881 in goodwill from the November 30, 2005, acquisition of Northwest Business Financial Corporation (“NWBF”) and the February 1, 2013, acquisition of Century Bank. In addition, at June 30, 2014, the Company had $674 of core deposit intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Century Bank. The core deposit intangible was determined to have an expected life of seven years, and is being amortized over that period using the straight-line method and will be fully amortized in January 2020. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company does not amortize goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite lives, but instead periodically tests these assets for impairment. Management performs an impairment analysis of the intangible assets with indefinite lives at least annually, but more frequently if an impairment triggering event is deemed to have occurred. The last impairment test was performed at December 31, 2013, at which time no impairment was determined to exist.

Deposits

Core deposits, which are defined by the Company as demand, interest checking, money market, savings, and nonpublic local time deposits, including nonpublic local time deposits in excess of $100 were $1,026,542 and represented 90.63% of total deposits at June 30, 2014. Core deposits at June 30, 2014, were up $36,227 over December 31, 2013. At the end of the first quarter 2014, core deposits were virtually flat with December 31, 2013, thus growth occurred during the second quarter 2014, which is typical of seasonal pattern.

A key component of core deposits is noninterest-bearing demand deposits which totaled $397,972 and represented 38.77% of core deposits at June 30, 2014. The weighted average cost of funds, when factoring in non-interest bearing core deposits, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was 0.19%.

Other Deposits

The Company uses public and brokered deposits to provide short-term and long-term funding sources. The Company defines short-term as having a contractual maturity of less than one year. The Company uses brokered deposits to help mitigate interest rate risk in a rising rate environment. All long-term brokered deposits have a call feature, which provides the Company the option to redeem the deposits on a quarterly basis and allows the Company to refinance long-term funding at lower rates should market rates fall. Below is a schedule detailing public and brokered deposits by type, including weighted average rate (“WAR”) and weighted average maturity (“WAM”).

Borrowings

The Company has both secured and unsecured borrowing lines with the FHLB, FRB and various correspondent banks. The Federal Reserve and correspondent borrowings are generally short-term, with a maturity of less than 30 days. The FHLB borrowings can be either short-term or long-term in nature. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for a full maturity and interest rate schedule for the FHLB borrowings.

Junior Subordinated Debentures

The Company had $8,248 in junior subordinated debentures outstanding at June 30, 2014, which were issued in conjunction with the 2005 acquisition of NWBF. The junior subordinated debentures had an interest rate of 6.27% that was fixed through January 2011. In January 2011, the rate on the junior subordinated debentures changed to three-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points. On April 22, 2013, the Bank entered into a cash flow hedge on $8,000 of the trust preferred payment, swapping the variable interest rate for a fixed rate of 2.73% for approximately seven years. At June 30, 2014, the fair value of the interest rate swap on the Company’s subordinated debentures was $218. At June 30, 2014, the $8,000 of the junior subordinated debentures qualified as Tier 1 capital under regulatory capital guidelines.

In July 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) was signed into law which, among other things, limits the ability of certain bank holding companies to treat trust preferred security debt issuances, such as the Company’s junior subordinated debentures, as Tier 1 capital. Under final rules adopted by the Federal Reserve Board and the other U.S. Federal Banking agencies our trust preferred securities would remain as Tier 1 capital since total assets of the Company are less than $15 billion. Additional information regarding these final capital rules is included in Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Capital Resources” of this report and in Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our 2013 Form 10-K under the heading “We operate in a highly regulated environment and the effects of recent and pending federal legislation or of changes in, or supervisory enforcement of, banking or other laws and regulations could adversely affect us.”

Additional information regarding the terms of the cash flow hedge is included in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item I of this report.

Capital Resources

Capital is the shareholders’ investment in the Company. Capital grows through the retention of earnings and the issuance of new stock or other equity securities whether through stock offerings or through the exercise of equity awards. Capital formation allows the Company to grow assets and provides flexibility in times of adversity. Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2014, was $182,137, up $2,953 from December 31, 2013. The increase in shareholders’ equity was due to the improvement in the market value of the Company’s securities available-for-sale, which positively impacted accumulated other comprehensive income.

On May 6, 2014, the Company announced a share repurchase plan authorizing the purchase of up to 5% or 892,500 shares of stock in the open market. During the second quarter 2014, the Company repurchased 134,722 shares at a weighted average price (including commission) of $13.36 per share. Over the last nine quarters, the Company has used a combination of regular dividends, special dividends, and share repurchases to maintain capital levels comparable with year-end December 31, 2011, capital levels. For additional details regarding the changes in equity, review the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity in Item 1 of Part I of this report.

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have in place guidelines for risk-based capital requirements applicable to U.S. bank holding companies and banks. These risk-based capital guidelines take into consideration risk factors, as defined by regulation, associated with various categories of assets, both on and off-balance sheet. Under the guidelines, capital strength is measured in three ways, first by measuring Tier 1 capital to leverage assets, followed by capital measurement in two tiers, which are used in conjunction with risk-adjusted assets to determine the risk-based capital ratios. These guidelines require a minimum of 4.00% Tier 1 capital to leverage assets, 4.00% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and 8.00% total capital to risk-weighted assets. In order to be classified as “well-capitalized,” the highest capital rating by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, these three ratios must be in excess of 5.00%, 6.00%, and 10.00%, respectively. The Company’s leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and Total risk-based capital ratio were 11.26%, 14.48%, and 15.73%, respectively, at June 30, 2014, all ratios for the Company and Bank being well above the minimum designations.

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the other U.S. federal banking agencies adopted final rules making significant changes to the U.S. regulatory capital framework for U.S. banking organizations and to conform this framework to the Basel Committee’s current international regulatory capital accord (Basel III). These rules, upon their effectiveness, will replace the federal banking agencies’ general risk-based capital rules, advanced approaches rule, market-risk rule, and leverage rules, in accordance with certain transition provisions. Banks, such as Pacific Continental Bank, will become subject to the new rules on January 1, 2015. The new rules establish more restrictive capital definitions, create additional categories and higher risk-weightings for certain asset classes and off-balance sheet exposures, higher leverage ratios and capital conservation buffers that will be added to the minimum capital requirements and must be met for banking organizations to avoid being subject to certain limitations on dividends and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The new rules also implement higher minimum capital requirements, include a new common equity Tier 1 capital requirement, and establish criteria that instruments must meet in order to be considered common equity Tier 1 capital, additional Tier 1 capital, or Tier 2 capital. When fully phased in, the final rules will provide for increased minimum capital ratios as follows: (a) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50%; (b) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% (which is an increase from 4.00%); (c) a total capital ratio of 8.00%; and (d) a Tier 1 leverage ratio to average consolidated assets of 4.00%. While earlier proposals would have required that our trust preferred securities (TruPS) be phased out of Tier 1 capital, the new rules exempt depository institution holding companies with less than $15 billion in total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009, such as the Company, from this requirement. These capital instruments, if issued prior to May 19, 2010, and currently in Tier 1 capital, are grandfathered in Tier 1 capital, subject to certain limits. Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer composed of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements (equal to 2.50% of total risk-weighted assets). The phase-in of the capital conservation buffer will begin January 1, 2016, and be completed by January 1, 2019. The new rules also provide for various adjustments and deductions to the definitions of regulatory capital that will phase in from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of these changes on our regulatory capital.

On January 12, 2014, the Basel Committee issued its near final version of its leverage ratio and disclosure guidance (the “Basel III Leverage Ratio”). The Basel III Leverage Ratio will be subject to further calibration until 2017, with final implementation expected by January 18, 2018. The Basel III Leverage Ratio makes a number of significant changes to the Basel Committee’s June 2013 consultative paper (“Consultative Paper”) by easing the approach to measuring the exposures of off-balance sheet items. These changes address the financial services industry’s concern that the Consultative Paper’s definition of exposure was too expansive, i.e., that the leverage ratio’s denominator was too large. The changes eliminate many, but not all, differences between the Basel III Leverage Ratio and the U.S. supplemental leverage ratio, which is currently set at a minimum of three percent and applies to U.S. firms with over $250 billion in assets.

The Company has regularly paid cash dividends on a quarterly basis, typically in February, May, August and November of each year. The Board of Directors considers the dividend amount quarterly and takes a broad perspective in its dividend deliberations including a review of recent operating performance, capital levels, and concentrations of loans as a percentage of capital, and growth projections. The Board also considers dividend payout ratios, dividend yield, and other financial metrics in setting the quarterly dividend. There can be no assurance that dividends will be paid in the future.

During the first six months of 2014, the Company declared and paid a regular cash dividend of $0.10 in each of the first and second quarters and a special cash dividend of $0.10 and $0.11 in the first and second quarters 2014, respectively. Subsequent to the end of second quarter 2014, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share and a special cash dividend of $0.03 per share to be paid on August 15, 2014, to shareholders of record as of August 4, 2014.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND COMMITMENTS

In the normal course of business, the Company commits to extensions of credit and issues letters of credit. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments to lend funds and conditional obligations as it does for other credit products. In the event of nonperformance by the customer, the Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established by the contract. Since some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $164,438 in commitments to extend credit.

Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $1,759 in letters of credit and financial guarantees outstanding.

For additional information regarding the Company’s regulatory capital levels, see Note 10 in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOWS

Liquidity is the term used to define the Company’s ability to meet its financial commitments. The Company maintains sufficient liquidity to ensure funds are available for both lending needs and the withdrawal of deposit funds. The Company derives liquidity through core deposit growth, maturity of investment securities, and loan payments. Core deposits include demand, interest checking, money market, savings, and local time deposits, including local nonpublic time deposits in excess of $100. Additional liquidity and funding sources are provided through the sale of loans, sales of securities, access to national CD markets, and both secured and unsecured borrowings. The Company uses a number of measurements to monitor its liquidity position on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis, which includes its ability to meet both short-term and long-term obligations, and requires the Company to maintain a certain amount of liquidity on the asset side of its balance sheet. The Company also prepares quarterly projections of its liquidity position 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, and 1 year into the future. In addition, the Company prepares a Liquidity Contingency Plan at least semi-annually that is strategic in nature and forward-looking to test the ability of the Company to fund a liquidity shortfall arising from various escalating events. The Liquidity Contingency Plan is presented and reviewed by the Company’s Asset and Liability Committee.

Core deposits at June 30, 2014, were $1,026,542 and represented 90.63% of total deposits. Core deposits at June 30, 2014, were up $36,227 over December 31, 2013, with virtually all of the growth occurring in the second quarter 2014. The growth in the second quarter reflects a typical seasonal pattern. The Company experienced an increase in outstanding loans of $36,360 during the first six months of 2014, which was funded entirely by growth in core deposits. It is anticipated that core deposit growth and cash flows from the securities portfolio will provide a significant portion of the funding during the remainder of 2014, as loans are expected to continue to increase. The securities portfolio represented 23.00% of total assets at June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2014, $25,964 of the securities portfolio was pledged to support public deposits and repurchase agreements, leaving $318,681 of the securities portfolio unencumbered and available-for-sale. In addition, at June 30, 2014, the Company had $35,369 of government guaranteed loans that could be sold in the secondary market to support the Company’s liquidity position.

Due to its strategic focus to market to specific segments, the Company has been successful in developing deposit relationships with several large clients, which are generally defined as deposit relationships of $1,000 or more, which are closely monitored by management and Company officers. At June 30, 2014, 56 large deposit relationships with the Company accounted for

Table of Contents

$394,316 or 38.41% of total outstanding core deposits. The single largest client represented 7.67% of outstanding core deposits at June 30, 2014. The loss of this deposit relationship or other large deposit relationships could cause an adverse effect on short-term liquidity. The Company uses a 10-point risk-rating system to evaluate each of its large depositors in order to assist management in its daily monitoring of the volatility of this portion of its core deposit base. The risk-rating system attempts to determine the stability of the deposits of each large depositor, evaluating among other things the length of time the depositor has been with the Company and the likelihood of loss of individual large depositor relationships. Risk ratings on large depositors are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted if necessary. Company management and officers maintain close relationships and hold regular meetings with its large depositors to assist in management of these relationships. The Company expects to maintain these relationships, and believes it has sufficient sources of liquidity to mitigate the loss of one or more of these clients and regularly tests its ability to mitigate the loss of multiple large depositor relationships in its Liquidity Contingency Plan. There can be no assurance that these large depositor relationships will be maintained or that the loss of one or more of these clients will not adversely affect the Company’s liquidity.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had secured borrowing lines with the FHLB of Seattle and the FRB, along with unsecured borrowing lines with various correspondent banks totaling $467,990. The Company’s secured lines with the FHLB and FRB were limited by the amount of collateral pledged. At June 30, 2014, the Company had pledged $237,868 in discounted collateral value in commercial real estate loans, first and second lien single-family residential loans, multi-family loans, and securities to the FHLB. Additionally, certain commercial and commercial real estate loans with a discounted value of $101,122 were pledged to the FRB under the Company’s Borrower-In-Custody program. The Company’s unsecured correspondent bank lines totaled $129,000. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $164,500 in borrowings outstanding from the FHLB, no borrowings outstanding with the FRB, and $6,410 outstanding on its overnight correspondent bank lines, leaving a total of $297,080 available on its secured and unsecured borrowing lines as of such date.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $10,070 during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net cash of $25,695 was used in investing activities, consisting principally of a net loan principal increase of $36,602, which was partially offset by net proceeds from investment securities of $6,153. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash provided by financing activities was $37,960 and primarily consisted of an increase in deposits.

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There has been no material change in the Company’s exposure to market risk. Readers are referred to the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K and the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2013, for additional information.

ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 Legal Proceedings

On August 23, 2013, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah on behalf of individuals who placed money with Berjac of Oregon and Berjac of Portland, both currently in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The lawsuit, which alleges violations of state securities laws and aiding breach of fiduciary duty, names Pacific Continental Bank, along with Holcomb Family Limited Partnership, Fred “Jack” W. Holcomb, Holcomb Family Trust, Jones & Roth, P.C. and Umpqua Bank, as defendants. Claimants seek the return of the money placed with Berjac of Oregon and Berjac of Portland, plus interest, and costs and attorneys’ fees, which are claimed to be in excess of $10 million.

We may from time to time be involved in claims, proceedings and litigation arising from our business and property ownership. We believe, based on currently available information, that the results of such proceedings, including the above-described proceeding, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

ITEM 1A Risk Factors

For a discussion of risk factors relating to our business, please refer to Item 1A of Part I of our 2013 Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein, in addition to the following information:

Industry Factors

Fluctuating interest rates could adversely affect our profitability.

As is the case with many banks, our profitability is dependent to a large extent upon our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits, borrowings, and other interest-bearing liabilities. Because of the differences in maturities and repricing characteristics of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, changes in interest rates do not produce equivalent changes in interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Accordingly, fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect, and has in past years, impacted, our net interest margin, and, in turn, our profitability. This impact could result in a decrease in our interest income relative to interest expense. Increases in interest rates may also adversely impact the value of our securities investment portfolio. At June 30, 2014, our balance sheet was liability sensitive, and an increase in interest rates could cause our net interest margin and our net interest income to decline. For the past several years, the banking industry has operated in an extremely low interest rate environment relative to historical averages, and the Federal Reserve has pursued highly accommodative monetary policies (including a very low Federal funds rate and substantial purchases of long-term U.S. Treasury and agency securities) in an effort to facilitate growth in the U.S. economy and a reduction in levels of unemployment. This environment has placed downward pressure on the net interest margins of U.S. banks, including Pacific Continental Bank. We cannot predict with any certainty whether or to what extent these Federal Reserve policies will continue. During the first quarter of 2014, in light of improving conditions in the labor market, the Federal Reserve began to reduce the rate of its purchases of long-term U.S. Treasury and agency securities. The Federal Reserve indicated in June 2014 that it expects to further reduce and ultimately end its asset purchases by October 2014. However, the Federal Reserve further indicated that it expected to maintain the current very low target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable period of time after its asset purchase program has ended, especially if current and projected inflation rates remain below the longer-term objective.

Company Factors

We have a significant concentration in loans to dental professionals, and loan concentrations within one industry may create additional risk.

Bank regulatory authorities and investors generally view significant loan concentrations within any particular industry as carrying higher inherent risk than a loan portfolio without any significant concentration in one industry. We have a significant concentration of loans to dental professionals, which represented 29.94% in principal amount of our total loan portfolio at June

Table of Contents

30, 2014 (see Note 4 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q). While we apply credit practices which we believe to be prudent to these loans as well as all the other loans in our portfolio, due to our concentration in dental lending we are exposed to the general risks of industry concentration, which include adverse market factors impacting that industry alone or disproportionately to other industries. In addition, bank regulatory authorities may in the future require us to limit additional lending in the dental industry if they have concerns that our concentration in that industry creates significant risks, which in turn could limit our ability to pursue new loans in an area where we believe we currently have a competitive advantage

Nonperforming assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

At June 30, 2014, our nonperforming loans (which include all nonaccrual loans, net of government guarantees) were 0.45% of the loan portfolio. At June 30, 2014, our nonperforming assets (which include foreclosed real estate) were 1.08% of total assets. Nonperforming loans and assets adversely affect our net income in various ways. We generally do not record interest income on nonperforming loans or other real estate owned, thereby adversely affecting our income and increasing our loan administration costs. When we take collateral in foreclosures and similar proceedings, we are required to mark the related asset to the then fair market value of the collateral, less estimated selling expenses, which may ultimately result in a loss. An increase in the level of nonperforming assets increases our risk profile and may impact the capital levels our regulators believe are appropriate in light of the ensuing risk profile. While we reduce problem assets through loan sales, workouts, and restructurings and otherwise, decreases in the value of the underlying collateral, or in these borrowers’ performance or financial condition, whether or not due to economic and market conditions beyond our control, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, perhaps materially. In addition, the resolution of nonperforming assets requires significant commitments of time from management and our directors which can be detrimental to the performance of their other responsibilities. Any significant future increase in nonperforming assets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not have the ability to continue paying dividends on our common stock at current or historic levels.

On April 16, 2014, we announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share, payable to shareholders of record on April 28, 2014, and declared a special cash dividend of $0.11 per share. Subsequent to the end of second quarter 2014, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share and a special cash dividend of $0.03 per share to be paid on August 15, 2014 to shareholders of record as of August 4, 2014. Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock depends on a variety of factors. It is possible in the future that we may not be able to continue paying quarterly dividends commensurate with historic levels, if at all. As a holding company, a substantial portion of our cash flow typically comes from dividends our bank subsidiary pays to us. Cash dividends will depend on sufficient earnings to support them and adherence to bank regulatory requirements. If the Bank is not able to pay dividends to the Company, the Company may not be able to pay dividends on its common stock. Consequently, the inability to receive dividends from the Bank could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may be required, in the future, to recognize impairment with respect to investment securities, including the FHLB stock we hold.

Our securities portfolio contains whole loan private mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities and currently includes securities with unrecognized losses. We may continue to observe volatility in the fair market value of these securities. We evaluate the securities portfolio for any OTTI each reporting period, as required by GAAP. Future evaluations of the securities portfolio could require us to recognize impairment charges. The credit quality of securities issued by certain municipalities has deteriorated in recent quarters. Although management does not believe the credit quality of the Company’s municipal securities has similarly deteriorated, such deterioration could occur in the future. For example, it is possible that government-sponsored programs to allow mortgages to be refinanced to lower rates could materially adversely impact the yield on our portfolio of mortgage-backed securities, since a significant portion of our investment portfolio is composed of such securities.

In addition, as a condition to membership in the FHLB, we are required to purchase and hold a certain amount of FHLB stock. Our stock purchase requirement is based, in part, upon the outstanding principal balance of advances from the FHLB. At June 30, 2014, we had stock in the FHLB totaling $10,227. The FHLB stock held by us is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. As of June 30, 2014, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our FHLB stock holdings. Beginning in 2013, the FHLB began repurchasing small amounts of excess FHLB capital stock. Future negative changes to the financial condition of the FHLB could require us to recognize an impairment charge with respect to such holdings.

If the goodwill we have recorded in connection with acquisitions becomes impaired, it could have an adverse impact on our reported earnings.

At June 30, 2014, we had $22,881 of goodwill on our balance sheet. In accordance with GAAP, our goodwill is not amortized but rather evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that a potential impairment exists. Such evaluation is based on a variety of qualitative and quantitative factors, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, and other relevant entity-specific events. The last impairment test was performed at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our goodwill. Future evaluations of goodwill may result in findings of impairment and write downs, which would impact our operating results and could be material
