AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 1995. 7 8 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion is given based on the assumption that the reader has access to the 1995 Annual Report of Cathay Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary Cathay Bank ("the Bank"), together ("Cathay" or the "Company"). RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company reported net income of $2.9 million or $0.37 per common share, compared with $2.7 million or $0.35 per common share for the same period in 1995, representing an increase of $144,000 or 5.3%. The increase in the 1996 first quarter net income was attributable to a combination of the following: 1) a decrease of $750,000 in the provision for loan losses; 2) a decrease of $600,000 in net interest income before provision for loan losses; 3) a decrease of $284,000 in non-interest income; and 4) a decrease of $212,000 in non-interest expense. The annualized return on average assets and return on average stockholders' equity for the first quarter of 1996 were 1.02% and 12.23%, respectively, compared with 1.16% and 12.67%, respectively, for the first quarter of 1995. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income before provision for loan losses totaled $10.7 million for the first quarter of 1996, compared with $11.3 million for the same quarter in 1995. This represents a decrease of $600,000 or 5.3%. On a taxable equivalent basis, net interest income totaled $11.0 million and $11.7 million for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a decrease of $656,000 or 5.6% for 1996. Average earning assets grew by $171.6 million from the first quarter of 1995 to 1996 contributing to an increase of $1.9 million in total interest income, which however, was offset by a decline of 75 basis points in the average yield on earning assets from 8.78% to 8.03%. This was primarily a result of lower average reference rate on the Bank's loans from 9.08% to 8.58%, and a relative change in the earning asset mix from loans to investment securities. Average loans consisted of 67.49% of total average earning assets in the first quarter of 1995, but decreased to 54.67% in 1996. In addition, cost of funds went up 43 basis points from 3.62% to 4.05% primarily due to an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities of $173.2 million from the first quarter of 1995 to that of 1996, of which $170.8 million were in time deposits. Moreover, the lagging repricing characterics of the Bank's time deposits in a decreasing interest rate environment in the first quarter of 1996 played a role in the higher cost of funds. On the contrary, the repricing of time deposits in the first quarter of 1995 lagged in an increasing interest rate environment contributing to lower cost of funds. As a result of all the above, net interest margin, defined as taxable equivalent net interest income to average earning assets, decreased 122 basis points from 5.61% in the first quarter of 1995 to 4.39% in 1996. NON-INTEREST INCOME For the first quarter of 1996 and 1995, non-interest income totaled $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The decrease of $284,000 or 17.6% in non-interest income in the first quarter of 1996 was mainly due to reduced service charge income resulting largely from an escrow fee income transferred from an escrow trust fund bank control account in the first quarter of 1995, and lower letter of credit commissions as illustrated in the table below:

8 9 NON-INTEREST EXPENSE For the first quarter of 1996, non-interest expense totaled $6.6 million, compared with $6.8 million for the same quarter of 1995, representing a decrease of $212,000 or 3.1%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower FDIC assessment partially offset by higher salary expense due to annual salary adjustments and higher marketing expense due to increased advertising, promotion and new brochure printing. The following table presents the components of the non-interest expense with the amount and percentage changes for the periods indicated:
(Dollars in thousands) Three Months Ended Increase Percent Non-interest expense: 03/31/96 03/31/95 (Decrease) Change -------- -------- ---------- ------- Salaries and employee benefits $3,105 $2,932 $ 173 5.9% Occupancy expense 553 525 28 5.3 Computer and equipment expense 507 565 (58) (10.3) Professional services expense 713 766 (53) (6.9) FDIC and State assessments 86 481 (395) (82.1) Marketing expense 329 226 103 45.6 Net other real estate owned expense 497 499 (2) (0.4) Other operating expense 772 780 (8) (1.0) ------ ------ ------- Total non-interest expense $6,562 $6,774 $ (212) (3.1)% ====== ====== =======
FINANCIAL CONDITION From year-end 1995 to March 31, 1996, total assets increased $96.4 million or 8.9% to $1,183.8 million; deposits were up $97.3 million or 9.9% to $1,081.5 million; securities available-for-sale increased $66.4 million or 27.3% to $309.6 million; loans, net of unearned fees, advanced $13.6 million or 2.4% to $569.3 million; and stockholders' equity remained approximately the same at $94.4 million due to the quarterly earnings offset by a decrease of $2.1 million in unrealized holding gains on securities available-for-sale and dividends paid in the amount of $1.2 million. EARNING ASSET MIX Total earning assets amounted to $1,082.3 million as of March 31, 1996, compared with $974.6 million at year-end 1995, representing an increase of $107.7 million or 11.1%. The increase in total earning assets as well as the continued change in the earning asset mix of loans and other types of investments, primarily securities available-for-sale and Federal funds sold in the first quarter of 1996 reflected the still sluggish loan demand in the Company's markets while deposits continued to grow. The change in the earning asset mix improved the Company's liquidity ratio from 43.6% at year-end 1995 to 47.6% as of March 31, 1996, but it had unfavorably impacted the net interest margin, which declined 122 basis points between the first quarter of 1995 and 1996. The table below shows the changes in the earning asset mix as of the dates indicated:

9 10 SECURITIES Securities available-for-sale increased $66.4 million or 27.3% to $309.6 million as of March 31, 1996, compared with $243.3 million at year-end 1995. A majority of securities available-for-sale were securities backed by U.S. government agencies. The substantial increase in securities available-for-sale was largely due to persistent soft loan demand in the Company's market area while deposits continued to grow as mentioned previously. Securities held-to-maturity decreased slightly from $159.4 million at year-end 1995 to $158.2 million as of March 31, 1996. The following tables summarize the composition and maturity distribution of the investment portfolio as of the dates indicated:

As shown in the table below, the increase primarily took place in the other loan category which added $11.8 million resulting from investments in banker's acceptances.

RISK ELEMENTS OF THE LOAN PORTFOLIO NON-PERFORMING ASSETS Non-performing assets include loans past due 90 days or more (including both loans that are still accruing interest, and those on a non-accrual status), troubled debt restructurings, as well as real estate acquired through foreclosures. As of March 31, 1996 the Company's non-performing assets totaled $43.0 million, compared with $37.7 million at year-end 1995. The increase of $5.4 million in non-performing assets resulted primarily from an increase of $3.6 million in non-accrual loans and secondarily from an increase of $1.5 million in other real estate owned (OREO). The coverage ratio, which is the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans, decreased from 53.57% at year-end 1995 to 48.55% as of March 31, 1996, largely due to a $3.8 million increase in non-performing loans 11 12 while the allowance for loan losses was only up $664,000. However, management believes the allowance for loan losses was adequate as of March 31, 1996 since a majority of the non-accrual loans, especially the commercial real estate loans, are secured by the first trust deeds of the respective properties with added collateral in one case. The following table presents the breakdown of non-performing assets by different categories as of the dates indicated:
(Dollars in thousands) As of As of As of As of Non-Performing Assets: 03/31/96 12/31/95 09/30/95 06/30/95 -------- -------- -------- -------- Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest $ 1,571 $ 1,344 $ 8,860 $ 7,430 Non-accrual loans 17,621 14,012 22,528 19,781 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total past due loans $19,192 $15,356 $31,388 $27,211 Troubled debt restructurings 8,419 8,429 8,617 9,076 Real estate acquired in foreclosure or in-substance foreclosure 15,436 13,879 19,452 17,563 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total non-performing assets $43,047 $37,664 $59,457 $53,850 ======= ======= ======= ======= Non-performing assets as a percentage of period-end total loans plus OREO 7.34% 6.59% 10.46% 9.15%
The balance of non-accrual loans consisted mainly of $7.6 million in commercial real estate loans and $9.5 million in commercial loans. The increase of $3.6 million in non-accrual loans since year-end 1995 was primarily due to: 1) the addition of $5.7 million commercial real estate loans, $5.1 million of which is secured by motels; and 2) foreclosure on a $2.6 million motel. The following tables present the type of properties securing the loans and the type of businesses the borrowers engaged in under different non-accrual loan categories:
(Dollars in thousands) As of March 31, 1996 Loan Balance ------------------------------------ Commercial Type of property: Real Estate Commercial ----------- ---------- Single/multi-family residence $ 510 $ 1,301 Commercial 33 4,402 Motel 7,012 541 Land -0- -0- Others -0- 565 Marina -0- 2,645 Unsecured -0- 31 -------- -------- $ 7,555 $ 9,485 ======== ======== Type of business: Real estate development $ 33 $ 57 Retail 510 97 Restaurant -0- 796 Import -0- 850 Motel 7,012 541 Wholesale -0- 3,455 Marina -0- 1,875 Others -0- 1,814 -------- -------- $ 7,555 $ 9,485 ======== ========
From the above schedule in the non-accrual commercial real estate loan category, the motel loans totaled $7.0 million comprising three credits secured by the first trust deeds of the respective motels located in Southern California with a single family residence as an added collateral on one credit. 12 13 In the non-accrual commercial loan category, $4.4 million secured by commercial properties was made up of 10 credits. The collateral on these credits include first and second trust deeds, TCD's and UCC's. The $2.6 million secured by marinas consists of two credits. One in the amount of $770,000 has been brought current since March 31, 1996. The balance of the other credit secured by two marinas has been gradually reduced and the Bank is in final negotiation with a third party to purchase the two marinas. The Bank expects no loss from the sales transaction. Troubled debt restructurings totaled $8.4 million as of March 31, 1996, approximately the same level as year-end 1995. Of these restructured loans, 28 credits totaling $3.4 million were current under their revised terms, while two credits totaling $5.0 million were 30 days past due as of March 31, 1996. There were no loan concentrations to multiple borrowers in similar activities, which exceeded 10% of total loans as of March 31, 1996. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses amounted to $13.4 million or 2.35% of total loans on March 31, 1996, compared with $12.7 million or 2.28% of total loans at year-end 1995. The following table presents information relating to the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated:
(Dollars in thousands) YTD YTD YTD YTD Allowance for loan losses: 03/31/96 12/31/95 09/30/95 06/30/95 -------- -------- -------- -------- Balance at beginning of period $12,742 $12,271 $12,271 $12,271 Provision for loan losses 900 7,300 4,650 3,000 Loans charged-off (710) (7,335) (4,747) (2,550) Recoveries of charged-off loans 474 506 101 65 ------- ------- ------- ------- Balance at end of period $13,406 $12,742 $12,275 $12,786 ======= ======= ======= ======= Average loans outstanding during the period $547,915 $549,660 $553,929 $559,687 Ratio of net charge-offs to average loans outstanding during the period (annualized) 0.17% 1.24% 1.12% 0.89% Provision for loan losses to average loans outstanding during the period (annualized) 0.66% 1.33% 1.12% 1.07% Allowance to non-performing loans at period end 48.55% 53.57% 30.68% 35.24% Allowance to total loans at period-end 2.35% 2.28% 2.24% 2.24%
In determing the allowance for loan losses, management continues to assess the risks inherent in the loan portfolio, the possible impact of known and potential problem loans, and other factors such as collateral value, portfolio composition, loan concentration, financial strength of borrower, and trends in local economic conditions. The Company's allowance for loan losses consists of a specific allowance for impaired and classified loans and a general allowance for non-classified loans. The impairment allowance is defined as the difference between the recorded investment and the fair value of the impaired loan. For the remaining internally classified loans which do not require impairment allowance, management allocates a specific allowance to each loan based on the percentage assigned and the current financial condition of the borrowers and guarantors, the prevailing value of the underlying collateral and the general economic conditions. The general allowance is determined by an assessment of the overall quality of the unclassified portion of the loan portfolio as a whole, and by loan type. Management maintained the percentage assigned to the general allowance based on charge-off history and management's knowledge of the quality of the portfolio. The adoption of Statement of Accounting Standards No. 114 (SFAS 114) "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and No. 118 (SFAS 118) "Accounting by 13 14 Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures" in January 1995 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operatons or financial condition. The following table presents a breakdown of impaired loans and the SFAS 114 impairment allowance related to impaired loans:
(Dollars in thousands) As of March 31, 1996 ------------------------------------ SFAS 114 Impaired loans: Recorded Impairment Loans with impairment allowance Investment Allowance ---------- ---------- Commercial $12,827 $ 2,349 Commercial real estate 21,262 4,369 ------- -------- Total loans with impairment allowance $34,089 $ 6,718 ======= ======== Loans without impairment allowance Commercial $ 1,875 Commercial real estate 1,446 ------- Total loans without impairment allowance $ 3,321 =======
Based on the Company's evaluation process to determine the level of the allowance for loan losses mentioned previously and the fact that a majority of the Company's non-performing loans are secured, management believes the allowance level to be adequate as of March 31, 1996 to absorb the estimated known and inherent risks identified through its analysis. OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED The Company's OREO properties, net of a valuation allowance of $1.4 million, were carried at $15.4 million on March 31, 1996. This compares with OREO, net of a valuation allowance of $869,000, carried at $13.9 million at year-end 1995. During the first quarter of 1996, three properties with a fair value of $3.2 million were added to OREO, and three properties totaling $874,000 were disposed of with a net gain of $59,000. The existing OREO properties include different types of residential properties, commercial buildings, retail stores, land, and motels. With an exception of one single family residence which is out of state, all other properties are located in Southern California. The Company maintains a valuation allowance for the OREO properties in order to record fair estimated value of these properties. Periodic evaluation is performed on each property and corresponding adjustment is made to the valuation allowance. Any decline in value is recognized as non-interest expense in the current period and any balance in the valuation allowance is reversed when the respective property is sold. During the first quarter of 1996, management provided approximately $500,000 to the provision for OREO losses based on new listing prices or new appraisals received. It is unpredictable when the Southern California real estate market will recover from its prolonged depressed condition, therefore additional provision for OREO losses may be made in the future, and the Company may incur losses on sales of these properties. DEPOSITS Total deposits reached $1,081.5 million as of March 31, 1996, representing an increase of $97.3 million or 9.9% over the $984.2 million at year-end 1995. Accounting for most of the increase were time deposits of $100,000 or more ("Jumbo CD's") and time deposits under $100,000, which went up $44.3 million and $23.3 million, respectively, due in large part to an inflow of capital from Taiwan. The increase in other deposit categories resulted primarily from a Chinese New Year promotion. As a result of the increase in Jumbo CD's, the Company's core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding Jumbo CD's and brokered deposits, have declined slightly as a percentage of total deposits from 61.0% at year-end 1995 to 60.4% at March 31, 1996. 14 15 Although Jumbo CD's increased remarkably, management maintains they are not considered generally volatile since 1) a majority of the Company's Jumbo CD's have been fairly consistent based on statistics which support that more than half of the Jumbo CD's stayed with the Bank for more than two years; and 2) this phenomenon of having relatively higher percentage of Jumbo CD's exists in most of the Chinese American banks in the Company's market which is dictated by the fact that the customers in this market tend to have a higher savings rate. However, management has taken steps to discourage the continued growth in Jumbo CD's, such as to diversify the customer base by branch expansion, and to develop new products to attract depositors. There were no brokered deposits as of March 31, 1996. The following table illustrates the deposit mix on the dates indicated:

CAPITAL RESOURCES Stockholders' equity amounted to $94.4 million or 7.97% of total assets as of March 31, 1996, compared with $94.5 million at year-end 1995 or 8.69% of total assets. The slight decrease in stockholders' equity was due to a decrease of $2.1 million in the unrealized holding gains on securities available-for-sale, net of tax, and dividends paid in the amount of $1.2 million, which offset the 1996 first quarter earnings. The Company's primary source of capital has been retained earnings, with the issuance of additional common stock through Dividend Reinvestment Plan and the ESOP being the secondary source. The Company declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per share in January and April of 1996, on 7,867,164 and 7,880,102 shares outstanding, respectively. Total cash dividends paid in 1996, including the $1.2 million paid in April 1996, amounted to $2.4 million. Management is committed to retain the Company's capital at a level sufficient to support future growth, to protect depositors, to absorb any unanticipated losses and to comply with various regulatory requirements. The Company and the Bank's capital and leverage ratios as of March 31, 1996 well exceeded the regulatory minimum requirements. They are presented in the tables below:

* Excluding the unrealized holding losses on securities available-for-sale of $659,000. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY Liquidity is the Company's ability to maintain sufficient cash flow to meet maturing financial obligations and customer credit needs. The Company's liquidity came primarily from various types of deposits. In addition, liquidity can be obtained from assets as well, which include cash and cash equivalents, Federal funds sold, unpledged securities available-for-sale, and unpledged securities held-to-maturity. Due to the gradual change in the earning asset mix of loans and other types of investments, the Company's liquidity ratio (defined as net liquid assets to total deposits) has continued to improve from 43.64% at year-end 1995 to 47.58% as of March 31, 1996. To further enhance its liquidity, the Company maintains a total credit line of $45 million for Federal funds with three correspondent banks, and a total retail certificate of deposit (CD) line of approximately $139.1 million with three brokerage firms. Moreover, the Company has become a shareholder of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) since January 1993, which enables the Company to have access to lower cost FHLB financing when and if necessary. Management believes all the above-mentioned sources will provide adequate liquidity to the Company to meet its daily operating needs. Interest sensitivity risk management minimizes the risk to net interest income resulting from the changes in market interest rates. The Company's Investment Committee monitors interest sensitivity risk on an on-going basis by using, among other things, gap analysis and certain key ratios. Gap analysis is a measure to identify the differences between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities over certain periods of time. A positive gap exists when rate sensitive assets exceed rate sensitive liabilities and a negative gap exists when rate sensitive liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets. Generally, a positive gap would enhance net interest margin during periods of increasing interest rates and vice versa, and a negative gap would impair net interest margin during periods of increasing interest rates and vice versa. Beginning in 1995, the Company's rate sensitive liabilities also included distribution of non-maturity deposit balances over certain periods of time based on the Bank's own assumptions and experiences. These non-maturity deposits, which contain money market accounts, NOW accounts and savings deposits, were included in the immediate repricing period prior to the third quarter of 1995. As of March 31, 1996, the Company's rate sensitive liabilities exceeded rate sensitive assets by roughly $40.1 million with a cumulative gap ratio of a negative 3.39% within a 1-year period. 16 17 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
