Item 2.02  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

(a)           First Regional Bancorp issued a press release on July 7, 2005 announcing its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.  The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99 and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.  First Regional does not intend for this Item 2.02 or Exhibit 99 to be incorporated by reference into filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

Item 8.01  Other Events.

 

As a result of a recent examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the California Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) of the issuer’s subsidiary, First Regional Bank, the Bank has identified certain deficiencies and other concerns, principally with respect to the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA).  As a result, the Bank has taken corrective action directed toward achieving full compliance with BSA and addressing the other concerns so identified, and the Bank believes that the corrective action taken to date has addressed the majority of such concerns.  The Bank anticipates entering into an informal agreement with the FDIC and DFI with respect to such corrective action.  While the issuer does not expect such concerns to have a material adverse monetary or other impact on its financial condition or results of operations, no assurance can be given that the FDIC and DFI will not require further action if the Bank fails to comply with the terms of the informal agreement or otherwise fails to correct the deficiencies identified.
