The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired.

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered TDRs and classified as impaired. Generally, TDRs are initially classified as non-accrual until sufficient time has passed to assess whether the restructured loan will continue to perform. Generally, the Company returns a TDR to accrual status upon six months of performance under the new terms.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Management has determined that all TDRs and all non-accrual loans are impaired; however, non-accrual loans with an impaired balance of $250 thousand or less will be evaluated under ASC 450 with other groups of smaller or homogeneous loans with similar risk characteristics. Management will use judgment to determine if there are other loans outside of these two categories that fit the definition of impaired. If a loan is impaired, a specific reserve may be recorded so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows including balloon payments, if any, using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Large groups of homogeneous loans with smaller individual balances, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are generally evaluated collectively for impairment, and accordingly, are not separately identified for impairment disclosures. TDRs are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a TDR is considered to be “collateral-dependent,” the loan is reported at the fair value of the collateral net of estimated costs to sell. For TDRs that subsequently default, the Company determines the allowance amount in accordance with its accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.

The general component of the allowance covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by loan class, and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over a rolling twelve quarter period. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other qualitative factors based on the risks present for each loan class. These qualitative factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; local, regional and national economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. The following loan classes have been identified: commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, multifamily, real estate construction, residential mortgages, home equity and consumer loans. For performing loans, an estimate of adequacy of the general component of the allowance is made by applying qualitative factors specific to the portfolio to the period-end balances. Consideration is also given to the type and collateral of the loans with particular attention paid to commercial real estate construction loans, due to the inherent risk of this type of loan. Specific and general reserves are available for any identified loss.

The Company recorded no consolidated provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to a provision of $12.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The $12.0 million provision for loan losses during the third quarter of 2012 resulted from workout and asset disposition activities undertaken in that period.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the ending balance of the Company’s allowance for loan losses increased by $326 thousand when compared to June 30, 2013. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses allocated to multifamily loans and commercial real estate loans (“CRE”) by $903 thousand and $427 thousand, respectively, while reducing the amount allocated to commercial and industrial loans (“C&I”) by $1.5 million.

The increases in the allowance for loan losses allocated to multifamily and CRE loans were primarily due to increases in the balances of unimpaired pass rated multifamily and CRE loans of $79 million and $34 million, respectively, versus June 30, 2013.

The decrease in the allowance for loan losses allocated to C&I loans during the third quarter of 2013 reflected a 0.84% reduction in the ASC 450-20 historical loss factors rate on unimpaired pass rated C&I loans, a $5 million decrease in the balance of unimpaired pass rated C&I loans and a decrease of $34 thousand in specific reserves for C&I loans as computed under ASC 310-10 at September 30, 2013 as compared to June 30, 2013.

Effective with the March 31, 2013 calculation, the ASC 450-20 loss factors rates incorporate an expansion of the look back period used in calculating historical losses to a rolling twelve quarter period (from an eight quarter period) for each loan segment. This change resulted from the Company’s effort to improve the granularity of its individual loan segment charge-off history. Additionally, the expansion of the look back period reduces the volatility associated with improperly weighting short-term trends in this calculation. These changes more accurately represent the Company’s incurred and expected losses by individual loan segment.

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the ending balance in the allowance for loan losses disaggregated by class and impairment methodology follows below (in thousands). Also shown below are total loans at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 disaggregated by class and impairment methodology (in thousands).

TDRs involve modifications or renewals where the Company has granted a concession to a borrower in financial distress. The Company reviews all modifications and renewals for determination of TDR status. The Company allocated $910 thousand and $800 thousand of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified as TDRs as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. These loans involved the restructuring of terms to allow customers to mitigate the risk of default by meeting a lower payment requirement based upon their current cash flow. These may also include loans that renewed at existing contractual rates, but below market rates for comparable credit.

A total of $43 thousand and $35 thousand were committed to be advanced in connection with TDRs as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, representing the amount the Company is legally required to advance under existing loan agreements. These loans are not in default under the terms of the loan agreements and are accruing interest. It is the Company’s policy to evaluate advances on such loans on a case by case basis. Absent a legal obligation to advance pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, the Company generally will not advance funds for which it has outstanding commitments, but may do so in certain circumstances.

The following tables (dollars in thousands) present certain information regarding outstanding TDRs at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, TDRs executed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and TDRs with payment defaults of 90 days or more within twelve months of restructuring during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. There were no such payment defaults during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

(1) Repayment of commercial and industrial loans is expected primarily from the cash flow of the business. The collateral typically securing these loans is a lien on all corporate assets via a blanket UCC filing and does not usually include real estate. For purposes of this disclosure, the Company has ascribed no value to the non-real estate collateral for this class of loans.

The Bank utilizes an eight-grade risk-rating system for commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate and construction loans. Loans in risk grades 1- 4 are considered “pass” loans. The Bank’s risk grades are as follows:

Risk Grade 1 – Excellent. Loans secured by liquid collateral such as certificates of deposit, reputable bank letters of credit, or other cash equivalents; loans that are guaranteed or otherwise backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government or an agency thereof, such as the Small Business Administration; or loans to any publicly held company with a current long-term debt rating of A or better.

Risk Grade 2 – Good. Loans to businesses that have strong financial statements containing an unqualified opinion from a CPA firm and at least three consecutive years of profits; loans supported by un-audited financial statements containing strong balance sheets, five consecutive years of profits, a five-year satisfactory relationship with the Bank, and key balance sheet and income statement trends that are either stable or positive; loans secured by publicly traded marketable securities where there is no impediment to liquidation; loans to individuals backed by liquid personal assets, established credit history, and unquestionable character; or loans to publicly held companies with current long-term debt ratings of Baa or better.

Risk Grade 3 – Satisfactory. Loans supported by financial statements (audited or un-audited) that indicate average or slightly below average risk and having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions; loans with some weakness but offsetting features of other support are readily available; loans that are meeting the terms of repayment, but which may be susceptible to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered. Loans may be graded Satisfactory when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

At inception, the loan was properly underwritten, did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk, and the loan met the above criteria for a risk grade of Excellent, Good, or Satisfactory.

At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan value adequate to protect the Bank from loss.

The loan has exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance.

During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or

The borrower is in an industry known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk grade may be warranted.

Risk Grade 4 - Satisfactory/Monitored. Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, but contain greater credit risk than satisfactory loans due to weak balance sheets, marginal earnings or cash flow, or other uncertainties. These loans warrant a higher than average level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance. The level of risk in a Satisfactory/Monitored loan is within acceptable underwriting guidelines so long as the loan is given the proper level of management supervision.

Risk Grade 5 - Special Mention. Loans which possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserves close attention. Such loans pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower. The key distinctions of a Special Mention classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk and (2) weaknesses are considered “potential,” not “defined,” impairments to the primary source of repayment.

Risk Grade 6 – Substandard. One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Substandard:

Loans which possess a defined credit weakness. The likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain. Financial deterioration is under way and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor.

The primary source of repayment is gone, and the Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

Loans have a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

Unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment.

The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments.

The lender is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation.

Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms, and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

There is a significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

Risk Grade 7 – Doubtful. One or more of the following characteristics may be present in loans classified Doubtful:

Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. However, based on existing conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly improbable.

The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

The possibility of loss is high but because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.

Risk Grade 8 – Loss. Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

The Bank annually reviews the ratings on all commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and real estate construction loans greater than $1 million. Semi-annually, the Bank engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these loan classes. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its ongoing review process.
