IMPERIAL BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion includes forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. FINANCIAL REVIEW The following discussion presents information about the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources of Imperial Bancorp ("the Company") for the three months ended March 31, 1998. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1997 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and the accompanying quarterly unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. PERFORMANCE SUMMARY Net income for the first quarter of 1998 increased to $13.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, from $8.0 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 1997. The annualized return on average total assets increased to 1.21% for the three months ended March 31, 1998, from 0.99% for the same period of the prior year. Return on average shareholder's equity increased to 14.89% for the first quarter of 1998 compared to 10.90% for the first quarter of 1997. Earnings per share calculations for the prior year have been adjusted for a three-for-two stock split effected on February 6, 1998. Net income for the first quarter of 1998 increased 68% over the first quarter of 1997. The increase in earnings was largely attributable to the growth in loans partially offset by increases in noninterest expense. Average loan balances increased 40% in the first quarter of 1998 over the first quarter of 1997. Given current economic conditions, loan growth is expected to remain strong. Loan growth and increasing net interest margin contributed substantially to the 51% increase in net interest income for the first quarter of 1998 over the comparable period of 1997. The Company's net interest margin increased to 6.14% for the first quarter of 1998 from 5.74% for the first quarter of 1997. The provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 1998 was $5.8 million compared to $3.3 million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in the provision is due to the ongoing analysis of risk within the loan portfolio due to new loan products and expansion into new geographic areas along with the increase in the size of the portfolio. The Company's loan portfolio has increased $252.1 million since December 31, 1997. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to outstanding loans was 1.83% at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and 1.79% at March 31, 1997, respectively. Noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, totaled $18.1 million, an increase of 12% over the $16.1 million reported for the first quarter of 1997. Excluding the appreciation of Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. ("ICII") (NASDAQ-NMS-ICII) stock donated to not-for-profit organizations recognized in the first quarter of 1997, noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, increased 36% over the same period of the prior year. The increase in noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 versus the first quarter of 1997 is primarily due to the increase in the equity in net income of ICII along with higher fee-based income including merchant and credit card fees, service charges and international income and fees. Partially offsetting these increases were lower gains due to decreased warrant exercise and sale activity. Noninterest expense increased to $50.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, from $39.7 million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in noninterest expense occurred primarily in salary and benefits and customer services expense. The increase in salary and benefits expense is due to an increase in the number of full time equivalent staff to support the Company's growth in conjunction with higher benefit plan costs. The increase in customer services expense can be attributed to the growth in deposit balances generated by the Financial Services Group, which focuses on the real estate services industry. These increases were partially offset by the decline in charitable donation expense. Total assets at March 31, 1998, were $5.7 billion, an increase of 21% from total assets of $4.7 billion reported at December 31, 1997, and a 54% increase over total assets of $3.7 billion reported at March 31, 1997. Total loans at 1 March 31, 1998, were $3.0 billion, a 7% increase from $2.8 billion reported at December 31, 1997, and a 36% increase over $2.2 billion reported at March 31, 1997. The growth in the loan portfolio occurred primarily in commercial loans. Total deposits at March 31, 1998 were $5.1 billion, an increase of 21% over total deposits of $4.2 billion at December 31, 1997, and a 55% increase over total deposits of $3.3 billion at March 31, 1997. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased to $3.1 billion at March 31, 1998, from $2.4 billion at December 31, 1997, and $1.6 billion at March 31, 1997. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits represented 61% of total deposits at March 31, 1998, compared to 57% at December 31, 1997. Credit quality remained strong. Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 1998 were $1.3 million, compared to $0.7 million, for the comparable period of 1997. Nonaccrual loans totaled $12.3 million at March 31, 1998, from $10.6 million at December 31, 1997, and $17.0 million reported at March 31, 1997. Restructured loans decreased to $22.6 million at March 31, 1998, compared to $24.0 million at December 31, 1997, and $25.4 million at March 31, 1997. All restructured loans were performing in accordance with their modified terms at March 31, 1998. The balance of real estate owned and other assets, net, ("OREO") was $3.0 million at March 31, 1998, $3.3 million at December 31, 1997, and $2.2 million at March 31, 1997. Imperial Bancorp is classified as "Well Capitalized" with leverage, Tier I and total capital ratios at March 31, 1998, of 9.85%, 10.56% and 11.89%, respectively, compared to 9.32%, 10.26% and 11.66%, respectively, at March 31, 1997. SPIN-OFF On February 27, 1998, the Company received from the Internal Revenue Service a private letter ruling favorable to the Company's proposed spin off, in a tax- free distribution to shareholders, of a portion of its specialty lending and finance business into a newly formed corporation , Imperial Financial Group, Inc. ("IFG"). The spin off is conditioned upon, among other things, receipt of other required regulatory approvals and obtaining necessary financing. Prior to distributing the common stock of IFG to the Company's shareholders, the Company will contribute to IFG the following: (i) the assets and liabilities relating to The Lewis Horwitz Organization, a division of Imperial Bank ("the Bank") that specializes in motion picture and television financing, (ii) all of the common stock of Imperial Trust Company, a California licensed trust company that offers a wide range of trust and investment management services, (iii) all of the common stock of a newly formed thrift and loan company, Crown American Bank, that will hold the assets and liabilities of the Bank's Small Business Administration ("SBA") lending group, a division of the Bank that provides loans to small business, a portion of which are guaranteed as to repayment by the U.S. Government, and (iv) the common stock owned by the Bank (representing approximately 23% of all outstanding common stock as of March 31, 1998) in ICII. It is anticipated that shareholders would receive one share of IFG common stock for every two shares of Imperial Bancorp stock owned on the record date. The Company anticipates that the spin off will occur at the end of the second quarter of 1998. Total assets of the entities comprising IFG approximated $228.9 million at March 31, 1998. Revenues of IFG, including interest income and noninterest income would have approximated $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The contribution agreement calls for the Company to contribute to IFG net assets approximating the Company's net investment in ICII plus $15 million ($61.3 million at March 31, 1998). The Company's pro forma Tier 1, total and leverage capital ratios at March 31, 1998, reflecting the spin off of IFG were 9.62%, 10.87% and 8.93%, respectively. EARNINGS PERFORMANCE Net Interest Income: The Company's operating results depend primarily on net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. Net interest income increased to $60.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, from $40.2 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase in net interest income was driven by the growth in loans and the overall yield on earning assets which increased to 8.51% for the current quarter from 8.39% for the first quarter of 1997. 2
================================================================================ Three Months Ended March 31, (In Thousands) 1998 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest income $84,071 $58,733 Interest expense 23,434 18,572 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest Income $60,637 $40,161 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest margin 6.14% 5.74% ================================================================================
The Company's net interest margin increased to 6.14% for the first quarter of 1998 from 5.74% for the first quarter of 1997. While loan rates remained relatively stable during the quarter, the net interest margin was favorably impacted by strong growth in loan fees. An $876.4 million increase in the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the prior year also contributed to the improved net interest margin. Additional information concerning interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the yields and rates thereon for the three months ended March 31, 1998, is provided in Table 1-Average Balances, Yields and Rates Paid on page 19 of this Form 10-Q. In conformity with banking industry practice, payments for accounting, courier and other deposit-related services provided to the Company's Financial Services Group depositors are recorded as noninterest expense. If these deposits were treated as interest-bearing and the payments reclassified as interest expense, the Company's reported net interest income and noninterest expense would have been reduced by $5.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. The net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, would have been 5.54% and 5.22%, respectively. Noninterest Income: Noninterest income increased to $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, from $16.1 million for the first quarter of 1997. The table below provides the major components of noninterest income for the periods indicated.
================================================================================ Three Months Ended March 31, (In Thousands) 1998 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service charges on deposit accounts $ 1,432 $ 1,403 Trust fees 2,091 1,977 Gain on origination and sale of loans 1,084 514 Equity in net income of Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. 2,884 1,461 Other service charges and fees 2,915 2,278 Merchant and credit card fees 1,475 700 International income and fees 2,940 2,412 Gain on securities available for sale 4 234 Gain on trading instruments 208 324 Gain on exercise and sale of stock warrants 423 1,734 Appreciation of donated Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. common stock -- 2,816 Other income 2,647 276 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $18,103 $16,129 ================================================================================
Excluding the appreciation of ICII stock donated to not-for-profit organizations in the first quarter of 1997, noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, increased 36% over the same period of the prior year. Equity in the net earnings of ICII for the first quarter of 1998 increased $1.4 million from the same period of 1997. In the first quarter of 1997, ICII recorded an extraordinary loss due to the early retirement of debt which resulted in an after-tax 3 charge of approximately $4.0 million. The Company's pretax equity share of this extraordinary loss in the first quarter of 1997 was $1.0 million. The Company continues to be positively impacted by growth in other fee income businesses. Merchant and credit card fees increased by $0.8 million, other service charges and fees, primarily related to item processing agreements with other institutions, increased by $0.6 million, fees from the origination and sale of SBA loans increased by $0.6 million and international income and fees, relating to trade finance and foreign exchange activity, increased by $0.5 million. These increases were related to larger volumes in their respective operations. Although loan fundings have increased over the first quarter of 1997, activity related to the exercise and sale of stock warrants has declined resulting in a decrease in gains recognized of $1.3 million. These stock warrants are received in conjunction with loans funded primarily in the Bank's Emerging Growth Industries Group. Noninterest Expense: Noninterest expense totaled $50.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to $39.7 million for the prior year. The table below provides detail of noninterest expense by category for the periods indicated:
================================================================================ Three months ended March 31, (In Thousands) 1998 1997 ================================================================================ Salary and employee benefits $28,711 $19,671 Net occupancy expense 2,323 2,212 Furniture and equipment 2,218 1,381 Data processing 2,200 1,875 Customer services 5,906 3,606 Professional and legal fees 2,299 1,828 Business development 1,126 897 Charitable donations 143 3,676 Other expense 5,157 4,568 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $50,083 $39,714 ================================================================================
Noninterest expense increased 26% for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period of the prior year. Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 1997 included a $3.7 million contribution expense resulting from the donation of ICII stock to not-for-profit organizations. Excluding the donation expense, noninterest expense for the first quarter of 1998 increased 39% over the prior year. The increase in noninterest expense for the first quarter of 1998 compared to 1997 occurred primarily in salary and benefits expense. The increase in salary and benefits expense can be attributed to the Company's growth including the opening of a new loan production office in Bellevue, Washington, during the second quarter of 1997 and Imperial Bank Arizona which was established in August 1997. The number of full time equivalent staff has increased to 1,090 compared to 901 at March 31, 1997. Another factor impacting salary and employee benefits expense was an increase in incentive compensation tied to the Company's performance. Customer services expense increased to $5.9 million for the first quarter of 1998 from $3.6 million for the prior year. The Company pays certain accounting and courier expenses on behalf of its Financial Services Group depositors. The increase in customer services expense is directly related to the growth in Financial Services Group demand deposits. The average balance of these demand deposits increased approximately $577.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared to the comparable period for 1997. Furniture and equipment expense increased $0.8 million over the first quarter of 1997. To accommodate the increase in staff levels, capital purchases have increased resulting in higher depreciation expense. 4 Income Taxes: The Company recorded income tax expense of $9.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively, for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company's effective tax rates approximated 42.05% for 1998 and 1997. LOANS The following table provides a summary of loans by category for the periods indicated :

The Company continued to experience strong loan demand in its core California markets during the first quarter of 1998 and the relative distribution by industry type remained consistent with year end 1997. The out-of-state loan production offices opened in 1996 and 1997 also contributed to the Company's loan growth. Management anticipates continued strong loan demand throughout 1998. ASSET QUALITY Nonaccrual Loans, Restructured Loans and Real Estate Owned: Nonaccrual loans, which includes loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $12.3 million at March 31, 1998, compared to $10.6 million at December 31, 1997, and $17.0 million at March 31, 1997. Nonaccrual loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding were 0.4% at March 31, 1998, and December 31, 1997, and 0.8% at March 31, 1997, respectively. Loans totaling approximately $7.3 million were placed on nonaccrual status during the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in the balance of nonaccrual loans during the first quarter of 1998 was partially offset by gross charge-offs of approximately $1.4 million, payoffs totaling approximately $1.1 million and loans brought current of approximately $3.1 million. Consistent with prior reporting periods, there were no loans past due 90 days or more that ware still accruing interest. When a loan reaches nonaccrual status, any interest accrued but uncollected is reversed and charged against current income. Restructured loans, loans that have had their original terms modified, totaled $23.1 million, $24.0 million and $25.4 million at March 31, 1998, December 31, 1997, and March 31, 1997, respectively. The decrease in restructured loans during the first quarter of 1998 is primarily due to a $0.7 million pay down on one loan. Real estate and other assets owned ("OREO") include properties acquired through foreclosure or through full or partial satisfaction of loans. The difference between the fair value of the collateral, less the estimated costs of disposal, and the loan balance at the time of transfer to OREO is reflected in the allowance for loan losses as a charge-off. Any subsequent declines in the fair value of the property after the date of transfer are recorded through a provision for writedowns on OREO. OREO net of valuation allowances totaled $3.0 million, $3.3 million and $2.2 million at March 31, 1998, December 31, 1997, and March 31, 1997, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, there were no additions to real estate and other assets owned. Disposals of real estate owned for the same period totaled $206,000. The valuation allowance remained unchanged from December 31, 1997. Information regarding nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and real estate and other assets owned is presented as follows: 5

All loans on nonaccrual status are considered to be impaired; however, not all impaired loans are on nonaccrual status. Impaired loans on accrual status must meet the following criteria: all payments must be current and the loan underwriting must support the debt service requirements. Factors that contribute to a performing loan being classified as impaired include: a below market interest rate, delinquent taxes and debts to other lenders that cannot be serviced out of existing cash flow. The following table contains information for loans deemed impaired:
===================================================================================== Net Carrying Specific Net (In Thousands) Value Allowance Balance - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 31, 1998 Loans with specific allowances $89,301 $(14,180) $75,121 Loans without specific allowances 6,477 -- 6,477 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $95,778 $(14,180) $81,598 ===================================================================================== December 31, 1997 Loans with specific allowances $85,612 $(11,881) $73,731 Loans without specific allowances 7,374 -- 7,374 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $92,986 $(11,881) $81,105 =====================================================================================
Impaired loans were classified as follows:

Loans classified as impaired totaled $95.8 million at March 31, 1998, compared to $93.0 million at December 31, 1997. During the first quarter of 1998, $20.3 million of loans were newly classified as impaired. The increase in the balance of impaired loans during the first quarter of 1998 was partially offset by gross charge-offs of approximately $1.6 million, payoffs totaling approximately $13.8 million and loans brought current of $2.2 million. The Company's average recorded investment in impaired loans for the three months ended March 31, 1998, was $94.0 million. Interest income totaling approximately $2.0 million was collected on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 1998. 6 Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered appropriate by management and is based on an ongoing assessment of the risks inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses which is charged against current period operating results, and is decreased by the amount of net charge-offs during the period. The Company's determination of the level of the allowance for loan losses, and correspondingly, the provision for loan losses is based upon various judgments and assumptions, including general economic conditions (especially in California), loan growth, loan portfolio composition and concentrations, prior loan loss experience, collateral value, identification of problem and potential problem loans and other relevant data to identify the risks in the loan portfolio. While management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate at March 31, 1998, future additions to the allowance will be subject to continuing evaluation of inherent risk in the loan portfolio. At March 31, 1998, the allowance for loan losses equaled $55.6 million, or 1.83% of total loans, as compared to $51.1 million, or 1.83% of total loans, at December 31, 1997, and $38.6 million, or 1.79% of total loans, at March 31, 1997. The following table summarizes changes in the allowance for loan losses.
================================================================================ Three months ended March 31, (In Thousands) 1998 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance, beginning of year $ 51,143 $ 36,051 ================================================================================ Loans charged off: Commercial (1,545) (835) Real estate (169) (70) Consumer (24) (2) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans charged off $ (1,738) $ (907) ================================================================================ Recoveries of loans previously charged off: Commercial 390 170 Real estate - - Consumer 1 5 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans recoveries $ 391 $ 175 ================================================================================ Net loans charged off (1,347) (732) Provision for loan losses including discontinued operations 5,839 3,323 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance, end of period $ 55,635 $ 38,642 ================================================================================ Loans outstanding, end of period $3,040,697 $2,153,492 ================================================================================ Average loans outstanding $2,973,463 $2,130,316 ================================================================================ Ratio of net charge-offs to average loans/(1)/ 0.18% 0.14% Ratio of allowance for loan losses to average loans 1.87 1.81 Ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding at March 31 1.83 1.79 Ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans 454 227 Ratio of provision for loan losses to net charge-offs 433 454 ================================================================================
/(1)/ Annualized The provision for loan losses totaled $5.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, as compared to $3.3 million for the same period of 1997. The increase in the provision for loan losses was due to the change in risk within the loan portfolio due to new loan products and expansion into new geographic areas. Net charge-offs totaled $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, as compared to $0.7 million in the same period of 1997. As a percentage of average loans outstanding, annualized net charge-offs were 0.18% for the three months ended March 31, 1998, and 0.14% for the corresponding period a year ago. Securities: Securities available for sale increased to $680.5 million at March 31, 1998, from $669.3 million at December 31, 1997. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements increased to $l.1 billion at March 31, 1998, from $765.0 million at December 31, 1997. The increase in these balances is a function of the growth in deposits. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased to $3.1 billion at March 31, 1998, from $2.4 billion at December 31, 1997. The 7 growth in demand balances occurred primarily in real estate services deposits which increased $787.9 million from December 31, 1997. The remaining increase in demand balances is due to growth in commercial deposits. Other Borrowings: Short-term borrowings increased to $125.0 million at March 31, 1998, from $55.9 million at December 31, 1997. The increase is due to a $39.4 million increase in Federal funds purchased and reverse repurchase balances, and to a $32.9 million increase in borrowed funds backed by Treasury, Tax and Loan ("T,T&L") balances. The increases in Federal funds purchased, reverse repurchase balances, and T,T&L were offset in part by a $3.2 million decrease in commercial paper. ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT Liquidity: Liquidity management involves the Company's ability to meet the cash flow requirements of its lending and deposit businesses. For the Company, as with most commercial banking institutions, this involves an ongoing process of managing the cash inflows and outflows associated with a commercial deposit base. The Company's ability to acquire new deposits at pricing levels consistent with management's targets is largely based upon its financial condition and capital base. The Company's liquid assets consist of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, excluding those pledged as collateral. The majority of the Company's securities portfolio is held as available for sale. Available for sale securities can be sold in response to liquidity needs or used as collateral under reverse repurchase agreements. It is the Company's policy to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio (liquid assets to deposits) of 20% and to limit gross loans to no more than 80% of deposits. At March 31, 1998, the Company's liquidity ratio was 39% and the loan to deposit ratio was 60%. The overall liquidity position of the Company has been enhanced by a sizable base of demand deposits resulting from the Company's longstanding relationships with the real estate services industry which have provided a relatively stable and low cost funding base. Total demand deposits averaged $2.0 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to $1.0 billion for the same period of 1997. For the quarter ended March 31, 1998, approximately 35% of average total deposits were from the real estate services industry compared to 26% of average total deposits for the same period of 1997. The Company's average demand deposits and average shareholders' equity funded approximately 53% and 46%, respectively, of average total assets for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. These funding sources are augmented by payments of principal and interest on loans, the routine liquidation of securities from the trading and available for sale portfolios, Federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company experienced a net cash outflow from its investing activities of approximately $618.3 million. The net outflow related to investing activities can be attributed to growth in the Company's loan portfolio, an outflow of $247.4 million, and a $361.0 million increase in Federal funds sold. The outflow in investing activities was offset by the $962.4 million net cash provided by the Company's financing activities. Net cash inflows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 1998, included net increases in deposits totaling $891.8 million, and $69.1 million provided by an increase in short-term borrowings. Interest Rate Sensitivity Management: The primary objective of the asset liability management process is to manage the Company's exposure to interest rate fluctuations while maintaining adequate levels of liquidity and capital. In order to manage its interest rate sensitivity, the Company has adopted policies which attempt to limit the change in pretax net interest income assuming various interest rate scenarios. This is accomplished by adjusting the repricing characteristics of the Company's assets and liabilities as interest rates change. The Company's Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO") chooses strategies in conformance with its policies to achieve an appropriate trade off between interest rate sensitivity and the volatility of pretax net interest income and net interest margin. Each month, the Company assesses its overall exposure to potential changes in interest rates and the impact such changes may have on net interest income and the net interest margin by simulating various interest rate scenarios over future time 8 periods. Through the use of these simulations, the Company can approximate the impact these projected rate changes may have on its entire on and off-balance sheet position, on any particular segment of the balance sheet, and overall profitability. Cumulative interest sensitivity gap represents the difference between interest- earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing, whichever is earlier, at a given point in time. At March 31, 1998, the Company maintained a positive one year gap of approximately $2.4 billion; meaning its interest rate sensitive assets exceeded its interest rate sensitive liabilities. This positive cumulative gap position indicates that the Company is asset sensitive and positioned for increased net interest income during a period of rising interest rates but also exposed to an adverse impact on net interest income in a falling rate environment. At March 31, 1997, the Company maintained a positive one year gap of approximately $828 million. The Company's net interest margin is sensitive to sudden changes in interest rates. In addition, the Company's interest-earning assets, primarily its loans, are tied to the prime rate, an index which tends to react more slowly to changes in market rates than other money market indices such as LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). The rates paid for the Company's interest-bearing liabilities, however, do correlate with LIBOR. This mismatch creates a spread relationship risk between the Company's Prime based assets and LIBOR correlated liabilities. The Company has developed strategies to protect both net interest income and net interest margin from significant movements in interest rates. These strategies involve purchasing interest rate floors and caps with strike prices that generally adjust quarterly and range from 125-200 basis points below or above (depending on the instrument) current market rates at the time the floors and caps were purchased. At March 31, 1998, the Company owned exchange traded floors totaling $4.2 billion that expire at the rate of approximately $1.0 billion per quarter through the first quarter of 1999. The floors provide the Company protection in the event that the three-month LIBOR rate drops below their respective strike prices. The floors have an average strike price of 4.7%. The unrealized gain on the floors approximated $206,000 at March 31, 1998. The unamortized premium relating to the floors was $265,000 at March 31, 1998. In March 1998, the Company purchased an over the counter interest rate cap with a notional value outstanding of $1.0 billion at March 31, 1998. The cap provides protection in the event that the three-month LIBOR increases above the 8.33% strike price of the cap and expires during the first quarter of 2001. The unrealized gain on this cap at March 31, 1998 approximated $382,000. The unamortized premium paid for the cap approximated $490,000 at March 31, 1998. In the first quarter of 1997, the Company sold $27.0 million of ten-year certificates of deposit with a fixed rate of 7.15%. These long-term certificates of deposit are callable by the Company after one year and semi- annually after that. In order to minimize the interest rate risk of paying out a fixed rate for ten years, the Company executed an interest rate swap transaction with a notional value of $27.0 million in the first quarter of 1997. The interest rate swap requires the Company to pay a rate of three-month LIBOR less 10 basis points, quarterly for ten years. Simultaneously, the Company will receive quarterly interest payments at a fixed rate of 7.15% for ten years. The unrealized gain on this swap at March 31, 1998, approximated $108,000. In April 1997, the Company issued $75.0 million of 9.98% capital securities (the "Capital Securities") and entered into three fixed for floating interest rate swaps with a total notional value of $75.0 million in order to convert the Capital Securities to a floating rate. The swaps require the Company to pay three month LIBOR and receive 7.18% on $25.0 million, 7.186% on $25.0 million and 7.187% on the remaining $25.0 million. The maturity and fixed payment due dates on the swaps coincide with the call date and payment dates of the Capital Securities. The unrealized gain on the swaps approximated $5.6 million at March 31, 1998. CAPITAL SECURITIES On April 23, 1997, Imperial Capital Trust I (the "Trust"), a statutory business trust and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued in a private placement transaction $75.0 million of 9.98% Capital Securities which represent undivided preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. The Company is the owner of all the beneficial interests represented by the common securities of the Trust (the "Common Securities"), together with the Capital Securities, (the "Trust Securities"). The Trust exists for the sole purpose of issuing the Trust Securities and investing the proceeds thereof in 9.98% junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (the "Junior Subordinated Debentures") issued by the 9 Company and engaging in certain other limited activities. The Junior Subordinated Debentures held by the Trust will mature on December 31, 2026. The Indenture for the Capital Securities includes provisions that restrict the payment of dividends under certain conditions and changes in ownership of the Trust. The Indenture also includes provisions relating to the payment of expenses associated with the issuance of the Capital Securities. The Company was in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture at March 31, 1998. The Company used $30.0 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the Junior Subordinated Debentures to make an additional investment in the Bank during 1997. An additional $37.2 million investment was made in the Bank in January 1998. The remainder of the proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes or may be used for additional capital contributions to the Bank or to pursue investment opportunities. The Capital Securities qualify as Tier I capital under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve. The net principal balance of the Capital Securities was $73.3 million at March 31, 1998. CAPITAL Until 1997, the primary source of new capital for the Company, has been retained earnings from operations, with the exception of its long-term debt offering in 1979, and the exercise of employee stock options. On April 23, 1997, Imperial Capital Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued in a private placement transaction $75.0 million of 9.98% capital securities. See - "Capital Securities." At March 31, 1998, shareholders' equity totaled $370.0 million, a 5% increase over the $352.0 million reported at December 31, 1997. In the first quarter of 1998, the Company recorded an additional $1.5 million of shareholders' equity from the exercise of employee stock options. The Company receives a tax deduction for the difference between the option price and the market value of shares issued. The tax benefit associated with shares exercised which is recorded as a component of shareholders' equity, approximated $2.0 million in the first quarter of 1998. Management is committed to maintaining capital at a level sufficient to assure shareholders, customers and regulators that the Company and its bank subsidiaries are financially sound. The Company and its bank subsidiaries are subject to risk-based capital regulations adopted by the federal banking regulators in January 1990. These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy and are based on an institution's asset risk profile and off-balance sheet exposures. The risk-based capital guidelines assign risk weightings to assets both on and off-balance sheet and place increased emphasis on common equity. Federal law requires each Federal banking agency to take prompt corrective action to resolve problems of insured depository institutions including, but not limited to, those that fall below one or more prescribed capital ratios. According to the regulations, institutions whose Tier I and total capital ratios meet or exceed 6% and 10%, respectively, are deemed to be "well capitalized". Tier I capital basically consists of common shareholders' equity and noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interest of consolidated subsidiaries minus intangible assets. Based on the guidelines, the Company's Tier I and total capital ratios at March 31, 1998, were 10.56% and 11.89%, respectively, compared to 10.26% and 11.66%, respectively, at March 31, 1997. The Capital Securities discussed above qualify as Tier I capital and therefore contributed to the increase in the Company's capital ratios over the first quarter of 1997. 10 CAPITAL RATIOS FOR IMPERIAL BANCORP AND IMPERIAL BANK/(1)/

/(1)/Includes common shareholder's equity (excluding unrealized gains on securities available for sale) less goodwill and other disallowed intangibles Risk-weighted assets for the Company and the Bank were $4,107 million and $4,049 million, respectively, at March 31, 1998. Average assets for the Company and the Bank were $4,406 million and $4,325 million, respectively, at March 31, 1998. In addition to the risk-weighted ratios, all banks are required to maintain leverage ratios, to be determined on an individual basis, but not below a minimum of 3%. The ratio is defined as Tier I capital to average total assets for the most recent quarter. The Company's leverage ratio was 9.85% at March 31, 1998, compared to 9.32% at March 31, 1997, well in excess of minimum regulatory requirements. In conjunction with the spin off of IFG, Imperial Bancorp contributed $67.2 million of the proceeds from the Capital Securities to the Bank as additional capital to ensure that the Bank's risk-based capital ratios continue to meet the well capitalized criteria. The Company will evaluate the capital needs of the Bank following the spin off to determine whether additional capital is required. The Company's pro forma Tier 1, total and leverage capital ratios at March 31, 1998, reflecting the spin off of IFG were 9.62%, 10.87% and 8.93%, respectively. YEAR 2000 To fulfill the Company's business responsibility and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, the Company has established a year 2000 project team ("the Team"). The Team has conducted a comprehensive review of the Company's computer systems to identify the systems that could be affected by the year 2000 issue and is developing an implementation plan to ensure that date-sensitive data continues to be processed correctly. Incorporated into the Team's mission statement is to have the Company year 2000 compliant in the main by year-end 1998. The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's computers that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The Team presently believes that, with updates to existing software and minimal conversions to new software, the year 2000 will not pose significant operational problems for the Company's computer systems. Based on the Team's identification and analysis of necessary year 2000 updates and enhancements, the Company does not anticipate incurring significant incremental costs related to the year 2000 project. 11 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS SFAS No. 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130") establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general- purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific format for that financial statement but requires that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the period in that financial statement. SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required. The Company adopted the applicable provisions of SFAS No. 130 effective January 1, 1998. Total comprehensive income is disclosed in a footnote to the interim financial statements for each period presented. See Note 5 on page 17 of this Form 10-Q. SFAS NO. 131 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. SFAS No. 131 supersedes SFAS Statement No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise," but retains the requirement to report information about major customers. It amends SFAS Statement No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," to remove the special disclosure requirements for previously unconsolidated subsidiaries. SFAS No. 131 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. SFAS No. 131 requires that a public business enterprise report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, and segment assets. It requires reconciliation's of total segment revenues, total segment profit or loss, total segment assets, and other amounts disclosed for segments to corresponding amounts in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements. It requires that all public business enterprises report information about the revenues derived from the enterprise's products or services (or groups of similar products and services), about the countries in which the enterprise earns revenues and holds assets, and about major customers regardless of whether that information is used in making operating decisions. However, SFAS No. 131 does not require an enterprise to report information that is not prepared for internal use if reporting it would be impracticable. SFAS No. 131 also requires that a public business enterprise report descriptive information about the way that the operating segments were determined, the products and services provided by the operating segments, differences between the measurements used in reporting segment information and those used in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements, and changes in the measurement of segment amounts from period to period. SFAS No. 131 is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. In the initial year of application, comparative information for earlier years is to be restated. This statement need not be applied to interim financial statements in the initial year of its application, but comparative information for interim periods in the initial year of application is to be reported in financial statements for interim periods in the second year of application. The Company adopted the applicable provisions of SFAS No. 131 effective January 1, 1998. Segment disclosures will be presented in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1998. 12

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 15 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IMPERIAL BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all footnotes as would be necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and changes in cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, these interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. The Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Income and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows are presented in the same format as that used in the Company's most recently filed Report on Form 10-K. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. NOTE (2) IMPERIAL CREDIT INDUSTRIES, INC. At March 31, 1998, the Company owned 8.9 million shares, or approximately 23% of the common stock of ICII. The Company does not exercise significant control over the operations of ICII and, as such, the results of operations are accounted for in the Company's financial statements as an equity investment. The equity investment in ICII is carried at cost adjusted for changes in ICII's shareholder equity including undistributed income. Transactions between ICII and the Company occur during the normal course of business. All transactions are carried out at substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with others.

NOTE (5) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130") establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general- purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific format for that financial statement but requires that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the period in that financial statement. SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required. The Company adopted the applicable provisions of SFAS No. 130 effective January 1, 17 1998. The following table provides a summary of total comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997:

(1) The yields are not presented on a tax equivalent basis as the effects are not material. (2) Average loan balance includes nonaccrual loans. (3) Includes net loan fee income and amortization of $6.1 million, $3.0 million, for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. 19 TABLE 2 - ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME Changes in the Company's net interest income are a function of both changes in interest rates and changes in the average balance of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table sets forth information regarding changes in interest income and interest expense for the years indicated. The total change is segmented into the change attributable to variations in volume (changes in average balances multiplied by old rate) and the change attributable to variations in interest rates (changes in rates multiplied by old balances). The change in interest income and interest expense attributable to both rate and volume (changes in rate multiplied by changes in volume) is classified as rate/volume. Nonaccrual loans are included in average loans used to compute this table. The table is not presented on a tax equivalent basis as the effects are not material.

22 EXHIBITS PART I COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE Imperial Bancorp ("the Company") has outstanding certain employee stock options, which options have been determined to be common stock equivalents for purposes of computing earnings per share. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS No. 128") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, and for all prior periods presented. SFAS No. 128 replaces primary EPS with basic EPS and fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings.
=================================================================================================================== 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the three months ended March 31, Per-share Per-share (In Thousands, Except Share Data) Income Shares Amount Income Shares Amount - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Basic EPS Income available to shareholders $13,375 39,358,201 $0.34 $7,953 38,383,167 $0.21 Effect of dilutive securities Incremental shares from outstanding common stock options 1,961,603 1,921,689 ---------- ---------- Diluted EPS Income available to shareholders $13,375 41,319,804 $0.32 $7,953 40,304,856 $0.20 ===================================================================================================================
The weighted average number of shares used to compute earnings per share was retroactively adjusted to reflect a three-for-two stock split effected in the first quarter of 1998.
