Cascade Bancorp & Subsidiary
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2013
(unaudited)
1.    Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cascade Bancorp (“Bancorp”), an Oregon chartered single bank holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of the Cascades (the “Bank”) (collectively, the “Company” or “Cascade”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain financial information and footnotes have been omitted or condensed. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (all of which are of a normal and recurring nature) necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and income and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 were derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all disclosures contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2012 consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Certain amounts in 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation, however the reclassifications do not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The unrealized losses on investments in U.S. Agency and non-agency MBS and U.S Agency asset-backed securities are primarily due to changes in market yield/rate spreads at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 as compared to yield/rate spread relationships prevailing at the time specific investment securities were purchased. Management expects the fair value of these investment securities to recover as securities approach their maturity dates. Accordingly, management does not believe that the above gross unrealized losses on investment securities are other-than-temporary. Accordingly, no impairment adjustments have been recorded.
 
Management intends to hold the investment securities classified as held-to-maturity until they mature, at which time the Company will receive full amortized cost value for such investment securities. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2013, management did not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above and believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, total loan balances increased by $54.4 million mainly due to increased commercial and industrial portfolio primarily related to its syndicated national credit portfolio. In addition, local owner-occupied commercial real estate ("CRE") was higher and the Company increased its portfolio of originated adjusted rate mortgages and 15 year residential real estate loans.
 
A substantial portion of the Bank’s loans are collateralized by real estate in four major markets (Central, Southern and Northwest Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area). As such, the Bank’s results of operations and financial condition are affected by general economic trends and, in particular, the local residential and commercial real estate markets it serves. Economic trends can significantly affect the strength of the local real estate market. Approximately 74% of the Bank’s loan portfolio at June 30, 2013 consisted of real estate-related loans, including construction and development loans, residential mortgage loans, and commercial loans secured by commercial real estate. While broader economic conditions currently appear to be stabilizing, real estate prices remain at markedly lower levels compared to periods before the economic recession that began in 2008. Should the period of lower real estate prices persist for an extended duration or should real estate markets further decline, the Bank could be materially and adversely affected. Specifically, collateral for the Bank’s loans would provide less security and the Bank’s ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling real estate collateral would be diminished. Real estate values could be affected by, among other things, a worsening of economic conditions, an increase in foreclosures, a decline in home sale volumes, and an increase in interest rates. Furthermore, the Bank may experience an increase in the number of borrowers who become delinquent, file for protection under bankruptcy laws, or default on their loans or other obligations to the Bank given a sustained weakness or a weakening in business and economic conditions generally or specifically in the principal markets in which the Bank does business. An increase in the number of delinquencies, bankruptcies, or defaults could result in a higher level of non-performing assets, net charge-offs, and loan loss provision. Management is targeting to reduce CRE concentration over the long term, but real estate-related loans will remain a significant portfolio component due to the nature of the economies, businesses, and markets we serve.
 
In the normal course of business, the Bank may participate portions of loans to third parties in order to extend the Bank’s lending capability or to mitigate risk. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the portion of these loans participated to third-parties (which are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) totaled approximately $11.4 million and $12.7 million, respectively.
 
The reserve for loan losses represents management’s estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for loan losses is increased by charges to operating expense through the loan loss provision, and decreased by loans charged-off, net of recoveries. The reserve for loan losses requires complex subjective judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are uncertain. The reserve for loan losses is maintained at a level currently considered adequate to provide for potential loan losses based on management’s assessment of various factors affecting the loan portfolio.
 
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, management believes that the Company’s reserve for loan losses is at an appropriate level under current circumstances and prevailing economic conditions. However the reserve for loan losses is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Therefore, management cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, the Company will not have significant losses in relation to the amount reserved. The level of the reserve for loan losses is also determined after consideration of bank regulatory guidance and recommendations and is subject to review by such regulatory authorities who may require increases or decreases to the reserve based on their evaluation of the information available to them at the time of their examinations of the Bank.
 
For purposes of assessing the appropriate level of the reserve for loan losses, the Company analyzes loans and commitments to loan, and the amount of reserves allocated to loans and commitments to loan in each of the following reserve categories: pooled reserves, specifically identified reserves for impaired loans, and the unallocated reserve. Also, for purposes of analyzing loan portfolio credit quality and determining the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses, the Company identifies loan portfolio segments and classes based on the nature of the underlying loan collateral.
 
The decline in the reserve for loan losses from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013 was mainly related to charge offs during the period, a significant portion of which relates to the Bank’s ongoing remediation of adversely classified loans.

The Company uses credit risk ratings, which reflect the Bank’s assessment of a loan’s risk or loss potential, for purposes of assessing the appropriate level of reserve for loan losses. The Bank’s credit risk rating definitions along with applicable borrower characteristics for each credit risk rating are as follows:
 
Acceptable
 
The borrower is a reasonable credit risk and demonstrates the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations. Loans are generally made to companies operating in an economy and/or industry that is generally sound. The borrower tends to operate in regional or local markets and has achieved sufficient revenues for the business to be financially viable. The borrowers financial performance has been consistent in normal economic times and has been average or better than average for its industry.
 
A loan can also be considered Acceptable even though the borrower may have some vulnerability to downturns in the economy due to marginally satisfactory working capital and debt service cushion. Availability of alternate financing sources may be limited or nonexistent. In some cases, the borrower’s management, may have limited depth or continuity but is still considered capable. An adequate primary source of repayment is identified while secondary sources may be illiquid, more speculative, less readily identified, or reliant upon collateral liquidation. Loan agreements will be well defined, including several financial performance covenants and detailed operating covenants. This category also includes commercial loans to individuals with average or better than average capacity to repay.

Pass-Watch
 
Loans are graded Pass-Watch when temporary situations increase the level of the Bank’s risk associated with the loan, and remain graded Pass-Watch until the situation has been corrected. These situations may involve one or more weaknesses in cash flow, collateral value or indebtedness that could, if not corrected within a reasonable period of time, jeopardize the full repayment of the debt. In general, loans in this category remain adequately protected by the borrower’s net worth and paying capacity, or pledged collateral.
 
Special Mention

13



 
A Special Mention credit has potential weaknesses that may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the loan or leave the Bank inadequately protected at some future date. Loans in this category are deemed by management of the Bank to be currently protected but reflect potential problems that warrant more than the usual management attention but do not justify a Substandard classification.
 
Substandard
 
Substandard loans are those inadequately protected by the net worth and paying capacity of the obligor and/or by the value of the pledged collateral, if any. Substandard loans have a high probability of payment default or they have other well-defined weaknesses. They require more intensive supervision and borrowers are generally characterized by current or expected unprofitable operations, inadequate debt service coverage, inadequate liquidity, or marginal capitalization. Repayment may depend on collateral or other credit risk mitigants.
 
CRE and construction loans are classified Substandard when well-defined weaknesses are present which jeopardize the orderly liquidation of the loan. Well-defined weaknesses include a project’s lack of marketability, inadequate cash flow or collateral support, failure to complete construction on time, and/or the project’s failure to fulfill economic expectations. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 
In addition, Substandard loans also include impaired loans. Impaired loans bear the characteristics of Substandard loans as described above, and the Company has determined it does not expect timely payment of all contractually due interest and principal. Impaired loans may be adequately secured by collateral.
 
During the first quarter of 2013, the Bank significantly reduced loans classified as special mention and substandard by $57.2 million by working with customers to either payoff, paydown, restructure and/or foreclose on the loans. During the second quarter of 2013, an additional $11.3 million of loans classified as special mention and substandard were reduced.

The significant decline in loans classified as substandard resulted from internal upgrades, payoffs, paydowns, loan sales and to a lesser extent, charge offs of credits previously rated substandard. Improved economic conditions contributed significantly to our upgrading of obligor credit quality.

TDRs
 
A loan is classified as a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company grants a concession to the borrower in the restructuring that the Company would not otherwise consider in the origination of a loan. In some situations a borrower may be experiencing financial distress, but the Company does not provide a concession. These modifications are not considered TDRs. In other cases, the Company might provide a concession, such as a reduction in interest rate, but the borrower is not experiencing financial distress. This could be the case if the Company is matching a competitor’s interest rate. These modifications would also not be considered TDRs. Finally, any renewals at existing terms for borrowers not experiencing financial distress would not be considered TDRs. A TDR loan is considered to be impaired and is individually evaluated for impairment.
 
The Company allocated $1.8 million and $2.7 million of specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in TDRs as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. TDRs involve the restructuring of terms to allow customers to mitigate the risk of foreclosure by meeting a lower loan payment requirement based upon their current cash flow. As indicated above, TDRs may also include loans to borrowers experiencing financial distress that renewed at existing contractual rates, but below market rates for comparable credit quality. The Company has been actively utilizing these programs and working with its customers to improve obligor cash flow and related prospect for repayment. Concessions may include, but are not limited to, interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, deferral of interest payments, extension of the maturity date, and other actions intended to minimize potential losses to the Company. For each commercial loan restructuring, a comprehensive credit underwriting analysis of the borrower’s financial condition and prospects of repayment under the revised terms is performed to assess whether the new structure can be successful and whether cash flows will be sufficient to support the restructured debt. Generally, if the loan is on accrual at the time of restructuring, it will remain on accrual after the restructuring. After six consecutive payments under the restructured terms, a nonaccrual restructured loan is reviewed for possible upgrade to accruing status.
 
Typically, once a loan is identified as a TDR it will retain that designation until it is paid off, because restructured loans generally are not at market rates following restructuring. Under certain circumstances a TDR may be removed from TDR status if it is determined to no longer be impaired and the loan is at a competitive interest rate. Under such circumstances, allowance allocations for loans removed from TDR status would be based on the historical allocation for the applicable loan grade and loan class.
 

17



As with other impaired loans, an allowance for loan loss is estimated for each TDR based on the most likely source of repayment for each loan. For impaired commercial real estate loans that are collateral dependent, the allowance is computed based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. For impaired commercial loans where repayment is expected from cash flows from business operations and/or sale of collateral, the allowance is computed based on a discounted cash flow computation. The allowance allocations for commercial TDRs where we have reduced the contractual interest rate are computed by measuring cash flows using the new payment terms discounted at the original contractual rate.

The increase in the outstanding recorded investment of loans modified and recorded as TDRs during the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily the result of remediation to bolster cash flow of stressed loans, and includes the restructuring of a large CRE credit in the Bank’s loan portfolio during the first quarter of 2013. Outstanding recorded investment of loans modified and recorded as TDRs decreased during the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012 was primarily the result of the remediation that had occurred prior to the second quarter of 2013 as the number of loans being restructured has decreased. 

At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had remaining commitments to lend on loans accounted for as TDRs of $0 and $1.3 million, respectively.

4.    Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSRs”)
 
The Bank sells a predominant share of the mortgage loans it originates into the secondary market while retaining servicing of such loans. MSRs included in other assets in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are accounted for at the lower of origination value less accumulated amortization or current fair value. The net carrying value of MSRs at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $1.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively, which includes valuation allowances of $0.2 million.

The Company’s basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any incremental shares arising from the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation.

7.    Stock-Based Compensation
 
At June 30, 2013, 4,552,252 shares reserved under the stock-based compensation plans were available for future grants.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company granted 292,561 additional shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.81 per share, which vest between 2014 and 2016. During the same period, the Company also granted 5,507 stock options with a weighted-average grant date fair value of approximately $6.80 per option. These stock options vest in 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company granted 54,421 additional shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.70 per share, which vest during 2014 and 2015. During the same period, the Company also granted 19,412 stock options with a weighted-average grant date fair value of approximately $4.25 per option. These stock options vest in 2014. The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions to value options granted in 2013 and 2012

The dividend yield was based on historical dividend information. The Company has not paid dividends since the third quarter of 2008 resulting in the dividend yield of 0.0%. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant for periods corresponding with the expected lives of the options granted. The expected option lives represent the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical exercise and forfeiture patterns.
 
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of publicly-traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable.  The Black-Scholes model is affected by subjective assumptions including historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price.  Because the Company has relatively low average trading volume in its common stock, its estimated volatility may be higher than publicly-traded companies with greater trading volumes.

Nonvested restricted stock is generally scheduled to vest over a three year period. The unearned compensation on restricted stock is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods. As of June 30, 2013, unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock totaled approximately $1.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over the next three years. Total expense recognized by the Company for nonvested restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods. There was no unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units (“RSUs”) at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, as all RSUs were fully-vested at the date of the grant.

8.    Income Taxes

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets (“DTA”), management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the DTA will or will not be realized. The Company's ultimate realization of the DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities,

23



and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $51.7 million and $51.8 million income tax benefit, respectively, which resulted primarily from reversing substantially all of the Company's DTA valuation allowance at December 31, 2012 of $41.6 million, the reversal of certain previously written-off deferred tax benefits of $8.5 million resulting from a reassessment of the Company's Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 382 limitations, and a current tax benefit of $1.7 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded a $25 thousand and $50 thousand income tax provision, respectively.

The DTA valuation allowance was established during 2009 due to uncertainty at the time regarding the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to fully realize the benefit of the net DTA. Based on its earnings performance trend, expected continued profitability and improvements in the Company's financial condition; management determined it was more likely than not that a significant portion of our DTA would be realized.

The Company has evaluated our future taxable earnings projections and as a result, the entire amount of the deferred tax valuation allowance reversal was determined to be a discrete item.

During the second quarter of 2013, management completed its reassessment of the IRC Section 382 limitations, resulting from the Company's capital raise in January 2011. As a result of this reassessment, $8.5 million of tax benefits previously impaired were restored to the deferred tax account for federal net operating losses ("NOL's"), federal tax credits and state NOL's.

As of June 30, 2013, the net deferred tax asset was $50.4 million. Included in the net deferred taxes are NOL's (tax affected) for are federal taxes of $28.7 million, Oregon state taxes of $4.7 million and Idaho state taxes of $3.9 million. Also included in the net deferred taxes are federal and state tax credits of $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively. This is compared with a deferred tax liability as of December 31, 2012 of $2.3 million (pertaining to available-for-sale securities) as the balance of the deferred tax assets was fully reserved. There are a number of tax issues that impact the deferred tax asset balance including changes in temporary differences between the financial statement recognition of revenue and expenses, estimates as to the deductibility of prior losses and potential consequence of Section 382 of the IRC. See also “Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates - Deferred Income Taxes” included in Part II, Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

9.    Fair Value Measurements
 
GAAP establishes a hierarchy for determining fair value measurements which includes three levels and is based upon the valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:
 
Level 1: Inputs that are quoted unadjusted prices in active markets - that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date - for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3: Inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. These valuation methodologies were applied to all of the Company’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value. In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internal or third party models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that assets or liabilities are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes that the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Furthermore, the reported fair value amounts have not been comprehensively revalued since the presentation dates, and, therefore, estimates of fair value after the condensed consolidated balance sheet date may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to valuation hierarchy:
 
Investment securities available-for-sale: Where quoted prices for identical assets are available in an active market, investment securities available-for-sale are classified within level 1 of the hierarchy. If quoted market prices for identical securities are not available, then fair values are estimated by independent sources using pricing models and/or quoted prices of investment securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. The Company has categorized its investment securities available-for-sale as level 2, since a majority of such securities are MBS which are mainly priced in this latter manner.
 
Impaired loans: In accordance with GAAP, loans measured for impairment are reported at estimated fair value, including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if collateral dependent). Estimated fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by appraisals or independent valuations which are then adjusted for the estimated costs related to liquidation of the collateral. Management’s ongoing review of appraisal information may result in additional discounts or adjustments to valuation based upon more recent market sales activity or more current appraisal information derived from properties of similar type and/or locale. A significant portion of the Bank’s impaired loans are measured using the estimated fair market value of the collateral less the estimated costs to sell. The Company has categorized its impaired loans as level 3.
 
OREO: The Company’s OREO is measured at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is generally determined based on third-party appraisals of fair value in an orderly sale. Historically, appraisals have considered comparable sales of like assets in reaching a conclusion as to fair value. Since many recent real estate sales could be termed “distressed sales”, and since a preponderance have been short-sale or foreclosure related, this has directly impacted appraisal valuation estimates. Estimated costs to sell OREO are based on standard market factors. The valuation of OREO is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Management periodically reviews OREO to determine whether the property continues to be carried at the lower of its recorded book value or estimated fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. The Company has categorized its OREO as level 3.
 

25



MSRs: The estimated fair value of MSRs is calculated by discounting the expected future contractual cash flows of the MSRs. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount, if any, by which the amortized cost of the rights exceeds its estimated fair value. Impairment, if deemed temporary, is recognized through a valuation allowance to the extent that estimated fair value is less than the recorded amount.
 
The Company’s only financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (e.g., the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments when there is evidence of impairment).

The Company did not change the methodology used to determine fair value for any assets or liabilities during 2012, or during the six months ended June 30, 2013. In addition, for any given class of assets, the Company did not have any transfers between level 1, level 2, or level 3 during 2012 or the six months ended June 30, 2013.
 
The following disclosures are made in accordance with the provisions of GAAP, which requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments where it is practicable to estimate that value.
 
In cases where quoted market values are not available, the Company primarily uses present value techniques to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments. Valuation methods require considerable judgment, and the resulting estimates of fair value can be significantly affected by the assumptions made and methods used. Accordingly, the estimates provided herein do not necessarily indicate amounts which could be realized in a current market exchange.
 
In addition, as the Company normally intends to hold the majority of its financial instruments until maturity, it does not expect to realize many of the estimated amounts disclosed. The disclosures also do not include estimated fair value amounts for items which are not defined as financial instruments but which may have significant value. The Company does not believe that it would be practicable to estimate a representational fair value for these types of items as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
Because GAAP excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements, any aggregation of the fair value amounts presented would not represent the underlying value of the Company.
 
The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:
 
Cash and cash equivalents:  The carrying amount approximates the estimated fair value of these instruments.
 
Investment securities: See above description.
 
FHLB stock:  The carrying amount approximates the estimated fair value of this investment.
 
Loans:  The estimated fair value of non-impaired loans is calculated by discounting the contractual cash flows of the loans using June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 origination rates. The resulting amounts are adjusted to estimate the effect of changes in the credit quality of borrowers since the loans were originated. Estimated fair values for impaired loans are determined using an observable market price, (if available), the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if collateral dependent) as described above. Observable market prices for community bank loans are not generally available given the non-homogenous characteristics of such loans.
 
BOLI: The carrying amount approximates the estimated fair value of these instruments.
 
MSRs: See above description.
 
Deposits:  The estimated fair value of demand deposits, consisting of checking, interest bearing demand, and savings deposit accounts, is represented by the amounts payable on demand. At the reporting date, the estimated fair value of time deposits is calculated by discounting the scheduled cash flows using the June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 rates offered on those instruments.
 
Other borrowings:   The fair value of other borrowings (including federal funds purchased, if any) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Bank’s June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
 
Loan commitments and standby letters of credit: The majority of the Bank’s commitments to extend credit have variable interest rates and “escape” clauses if the customer’s credit quality deteriorates. Therefore, the fair values of these items are not significant and are not included in the following table.

10.      Regulatory Matters
 
Bancorp and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Bancorp and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Bancorp’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
 
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Bancorp and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of Tier 1 capital to average assets and Tier 1 and total capital to risk-weighted assets (all as defined in the regulations).
 
Federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective action if an insured depository institution fails to satisfy certain minimum capital requirements. Such actions could potentially include a leverage capital limit, a risk-based capital requirement, and any other measure of capital deemed appropriate by the federal banking regulator for measuring the capital adequacy of an insured depository institution. In addition, payment of dividends by Bancorp and the Bank are subject to restriction by state and federal regulators and availability of retained earnings.
 
On March 7, 2013, the Bank entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities ("DFCS") which terminated the Order that had been in effect between the Bank, the FDIC and the DFCS since August 2009. During the life of the MOU, the Bank may not pay dividends without the written consent of the FDIC and DFCS and the Bank must maintain higher levels of capital than may be required by published capital adequacy requirements.
 
The MOU requires the Bank to maintain the minimum capital requirements for a “well-capitalized” bank, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 10.00%. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the requirement relating to increasing the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio was met.

On October 26, 2009, Bancorp entered into a written agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("FRB") and DFCS (the “Written Agreement”), which requires Bancorp to take certain measures to improve its safety and soundness. Under

28



the Written Agreement, Bancorp was required to develop and submit for approval, a plan to maintain sufficient capital at Bancorp and the Bank within 60 days of the date of the Written Agreement. The Company submitted a strategic plan on October 28, 2009. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Bancorp met the 10% Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement per the Written Agreement. On July 8, 2013, the Bank entered into a memorandum of understanding (“FRB-MOU”) with the FRB and the DFCS which terminated the Written Agreement. During the life of the FRB-MOU, the Bank may not pay dividends without the written consent of the FDIC and DFCS and must comply with certain other provisions as agreed.

11.      New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
 
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”). The provisions of ASU 2013-02 require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component and to present either on the face of the statement where net income is presented, or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. The provisions of ASU 2013-02 are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

12.      Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.  While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion highlights key information as determined by management but may not contain all of the information that is important to you. For a more complete understanding, the following should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 25, 2013, including its audited 2012 consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012.
 
In this documents please note that “we” “our” “us” “Cascade” or the “Company” refer collectively to Cascade Bancorp (“Bancorp”), an Oregon chartered single bank holding company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of the Cascades (the “Bank”).

Cautionary Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements about the Company’s plans and anticipated results of operations and financial condition. These statements include, but are not limited to, our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and are not statements of historical fact. When used in this report, the words “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “predicts,” “projections,” “continue” and other similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements, as do any other statements that expressly or implicitly predict future events, results or performance, and such statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain risks and uncertainties, and the Company’s success in managing such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including, among others, the risk factors disclosed in Part II – Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I - Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2013 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company undertakes no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances after the date hereof. Readers should carefully review all disclosures filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC.

 Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates
 
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that our most critical accounting policies upon which our financial condition depends, and which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments are as follows.
 
Reserve for Credit Losses
 
The Company’s reserve for credit losses provides for estimated losses based upon evaluations of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio and related loan commitments. Arriving at an estimate of the appropriate level of reserve for credit losses (which consists of our reserve for loan losses and our reserve for loan commitments) involves a high degree of judgment and assessment of multiple variables that result in a methodology with relatively complex calculations and analysis. Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses and considers qualitative factors including economic conditions and a range of other factors in its determination of the reserve. On an ongoing basis, the Company seeks to enhance and refine its methodology such that the reserve is at an appropriate level and responsive to changing conditions. In this regard, as of June 30, 2013 management implemented a homogeneous pool approach to estimating reserves for consumer and small business loans. This change is not expected to have a material effect on the level of the reserve for loan losses. However, the Company’s methodology may not accurately estimate inherent loss or external factors and changing economic conditions may impact the loan portfolio and the level of reserves in ways currently unforeseen.
 
The reserve for loan losses is increased by provisions for loan losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged-off and reduced by loans charged-off. The reserve for loan commitments is increased and decreased through non-interest expense. For a full discussion of the Company’s methodology of assessing the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses, see "Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Deferred Income Taxes
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are

31



reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision (credit) for income taxes. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the expected amount to be realized.

Income tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of income tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.

The Company reversed its DTA valuation allowance as of June 30, 2013 resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $50.4 million at that date. This compares to no deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2012 as it was fully reserved against. There are a number of tax issues that impact the deferred tax asset balance including changes in temporary differences between the financial statement and tax recognition of revenue and expenses, estimates as to the deductibility of prior losses and potential consequence of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, management determined it was more likely than not that a significant portion of our DTA would be realized. Management's decision was based upon evidence including its earnings performance trend, expected continued profitability, and improvement in the Company's financial condition.

The portion of the benefits associated with income tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above would be reflected as a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits would be classified as additional income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations.

Other Real Estate Owned and Foreclosed Assets

Other real estate owned and other foreclosed assets acquired through loan foreclosure are initially recorded at estimated fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. The adjustment at the time of foreclosure is recorded through the reserve for loan losses. Due to the subjective nature of establishing the asset’s fair value when it is acquired, the actual fair value of the other real estate owned or foreclosed asset could differ from the original estimate. If it is determined that fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through non-interest expense. Operating costs associated with the assets after acquisition are also recorded as non-interest expense. Gains and losses on the disposition of other real estate owned and foreclosed assets are netted and posted to other non-interest expenses.

Economic Conditions
 
The Company's business is closely tied to the economies of Idaho and Oregon which in turn are influenced by regional and national economic trends and conditions. Idaho and Oregon have been experiencing improved economic trends including gains in employment and increased real estate activity. National and regional economies and real estate prices are also stabilizing and in certain cases improved, however lingering effects of the recent downturn including fiscal imbalances, continue to affect employment and business and consumer confidence to some degree and the future direction of the economy remains uncertain. The Company's markets continue to be sensitive to real estate values and unemployment rates continue to be higher than prior to the downturn. An unforeseen economic shock or a return of adverse economic conditions could cause deterioration of local economies, resulting in an adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

Financial Highlights and Summary of the Second Quarter of 2013 (period ended June 30, 2013)

Net Income for the Second Quarter of 2013: $46.4 million or $0.98 per common share which included a one-time release of its Deferred Tax Asset ("DTA") valuation allowance resulting in a $51.7 million non-recurring credit to income taxes. Also included in net income for the second quarter of 2013 are certain expense items that partially offset the tax credit, the largest of which was a $3.8 million prepayment penalty to extinguish high-rate FHLB advances which will reduce future borrowing costs. Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $1.8 million or $0.04 per common share.
Net Income for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2013: $48.1 million or $1.02 per share compared to $2.8 million or $0.06 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Stockholder Equity/Book Value per Share: Including the release of DTA valuation allowance, equity increased to $187.9 million or $3.95 per share at June 30, 2013 compared to $140.8 million or $2.97 per share at December 31, 2012.

32



Loans: Gross loans up $54.4 million or 6.34% compared to December 31, 2012.
Deposits: Total deposits up $28.0 million or 2.60% compared to December 31, 2012.
Credit Quality: Reserve for loan losses at $22.7 million or 2.49% of loans compared to $27.3 million or 3.17% of loans at December 31, 2012.
Credit Quality: Net charge-offs for the quarter were $2.9 million mainly related to resolution of special mention and substandard loans.
Credit Quality: Non-performing assets were 0.84% of total assets at June 30, 2013 compared to 1.94% at December 31, 2012.
Net Interest Margin ("NIM"): NIM was 3.75% at June 30, 2013 compared to 4.11% at December 31, 2012.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS –Three and Six ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
 
Net income and shareholder equity was significantly and positively affected by the release of it the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance at June 30, 2013. The release of the DTA allowance is recorded as a $51.7 million credit to income taxes in the Company's income statement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Previously the Company had reported no DTA because it had maintained a full allowance against it. The release of the DTA valuation allowance was taken because the Company has concluded it is more likely than not that its deferred tax asset will be realized as it generates future taxable income. During the second quarter of 2013 the Company incurred certain charges that partially offset the DTA tax credit; the largest of which was a $3.8 million prepayment penalty to extinguish high-rate FHLB advances. This payoff is expected to reduce Company borrowing costs in the future by approximately $0.5 million per quarter. With the release of DTA at June 30, 2013, Shareholder Equity increased to $187.9 million or $3.95 per share as compared to $140.8 million or $2.97 per share at December 31, 2012.

Total loans outstanding increased to $928.3 million at June 30, 2013, a year to date increase of $69.6 million. The growth was attributable to increased shared national credits in the commercial and industrial portfolio as well as growth in the owner-occupied commercial real estate and residential mortgage portfolios.

Loan quality continued to improve with remediation of special mention and substandard loans. Loans categorized as such totaled $107.1 million at June 30, 2013 as compared to $175.6 at December 31, 2012. Of this $68.5 million reduction during the first half of 2013, $11.3 million of special mention and substandard loans was reduced in the second quarter of 2013. Remediation was accomplished through credit upgrades owing to improved obligor cash flows as well as payoffs/paydowns, note sales and/or charge offs related to the restructure of adversely risk rated loans. Non-performing assets as of June 30, 2013 improved to 0.84% of total assets as compared to 1.94% at December 31, 2012. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company made a provision for loan losses of $1.0 million partially offsetting $2.9 million in net charge offs. A portion of these charge-offs relates to the remediation of legacy substandard loans. Management believes the reserve for loan losses of $22.7 million at June 30, 2013 is sufficient.

Although the growth in total deposits leveled off during the second quarter of 2013, total deposits as of June 30, 2013 were $28.0 million higher than the balance at December 31, 2012, primarily due to increased interest bearing demand deposits in the first quarter of 2013. Non-interest income of $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2013 remained relatively constant to non-interest income of $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2012, while non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2013 was $5.1 million higher than the second quarter of 2012 primarily due to a $3.8 million prepayment penalty of FHLB advances. During the second quarter of 2013 the Company also recorded $1.3 million expense for human resource related items including incentive and severance obligations, a $1.0 million provision for loan losses, and $0.4 million associated with branch consolidation costs.

Income Statement
 
Net Income
 
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $0.98 per share or $46.4 million, compared to $0.04 per share or $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2012. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was higher than net income for the second quarter of 2012 primarily due to the one-time benefit for income taxes of $51.7 million related to the release of the DTA valuation allowance. Excluding the impact of the $51.7 million DTA valuation allowance, we recorded a net loss of $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2013, mainly due to certain non-recurring items including penalties of $3.8 million related to the prepayment of FHLB advances.

Net Interest Income
 

33



Net interest income was $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2013, down $1.0 million compared to $12.5 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $2.5 million lower compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012. These declines were primarily due to reductions in yields on earnings assets resulting from the historically low interest rate market environment. Specifically, loan interest income in the second quarter of 2013 decreased $1.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2012 and decreased $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, mainly due to lower yields on our loan portfolio during the first half of 2013.
 
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2013 decreased $0.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2012. Interest expense decreased $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012. This improvement was primarily due to the decreased rates on deposits in the low interest rate market environment. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company prepaid $60.0 million of FHLB advances bearing a weighted average rate of 3.17% which we anticipate will reduce our interest expense going forward.

Loan Loss Provision
 
The Company recorded a loan loss provision of $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. The Company did not make a loan loss provision in the second quarter of 2012. The year-to-date provision as of June 30, 2013 is $1.0 million while the year-to-date provision for June 30, 2012 was $1.1 million.
 
Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2013 were $2.9 million compared to $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2012. A significant portion of charge-offs related to the ongoing remediation of legacy special mention and substandard loans. At June 30, 2013, the reserve for loan losses was $22.7 million or 2.49% of outstanding loans compared to $27.3 million or 3.17% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2012.
 
The reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $0.4 million at June 30, 2013, which remained unchanged from December 31, 2012.

Service charges on deposit accounts continued to decrease during the both the second quarter and first half of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012 mainly as a result of the mix of deposit transactions. Card issuer and merchant service fees have increased in the second quarter and first half of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012 primarily are up with transaction volume related economic conditions and overall usage increases.

Net mortgage banking income decreased slightly in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012, this primarily may be due to a slight softening of the mortgage banking market during the current quarter. Net mortgage banking incoming increased in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012, mainly due to stronger residential mortgage origination volumes and related revenues in the first quarter of 2013.

Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased over the three months ended June 30, 2012 mainly as a result of gains on sales of Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans.

Total non-interest expense was higher for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to a $3.8 million prepayment penalty on extinguishment of FHLB advances. The Company also recorded a $1.3 million expense for human resource related items including incentive and severance obligations, and $0.4 million associated with branch consolidation costs, included in "Other expenses" above. FDIC insurance expense has decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2013 due to decreased monetary assessments by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). OREO expenses decreased 103.1% and 63.3% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012 mainly as a result of the disposition of OREO properties in 2012 through the end of the first half of 2013. Prepayment penalties on FHLB advances were $3.8 million, recorded during the second quarter of 2013. The Company elected to prepay $60.0 million of advances bearing a weighted-average rate of 3.17% to save in interest expense going forward. Other expenses increased in both the second quarter and first half of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012 mainly as a result of marketing expenses and an adjustment of the Company's tax credit investment.

Income Taxes
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a $51.7 million and $51.8 million, respectively, income tax benefit, which was the result of reversing its DTA valuation allowance. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded a $25 thousand and $50 thousand income tax provision, respectively. The DTA valuation allowance was established during 2009 due to uncertainty regarding the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income to fully realize the benefit of the net DTA. Based on its earnings performance trend, expected continued profitability and improvements in the Company's financial condition, management determined it was more likely than not that a significant portion of our DTA would be realized.

As of June 30, 2013, the net deferred tax asset was $50.4 million. Included in the net deferred taxes are NOL's (tax affected) for are federal taxes of $28.7 million, Oregon state taxes of $4.7 million and Idaho state taxes of $3.9 million. Also included in the net deferred taxes are federal and state tax credits of $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively. This is compared with a deferred tax liability as of December 31, 2012 of $2.3 million (pertaining to available-for-sale securities) as the balance of the deferred tax assets was fully reserved. There are a number of tax issues that impact the deferred tax asset balance including changes in temporary differences between the financial statement recognition of revenue and expenses, estimates as to the deductibility of prior losses and potential consequence of Section 382 of the IRC. See also “Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates - Deferred Income Taxes” included in Part II, Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company has evaluated our future taxable earnings projections and as a result, the entire amount of the deferred tax valuation allowance reversal was determined to be a discrete item.

In assessing the realizability of DTA, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the DTA will not be realized. The ultimate realization of DTA is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the nature and amount of historical and projected

39



future taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of deferred taxes recognized could be impacted by changes to any of these variables.

Financial Condition
 
Capital Resources
 
Total stockholders’ equity increased to $187.9 million at June 30, 2013, as compared to total stockholders’ equity of $140.8 million at December 31, 2012. The increase in total stockholders' equity was primarily due to the increase in net income recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $46.4 million compared to net income of $2.8 million over the same period in 2012, as a result of the release of the $51.7 million DTA valuation allowance at June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013, the total common equity to total assets ratio was 13.8% and the Company’s basic book value per share was $3.95 as compared to the total common equity to total assets ratio of 10.8% and basic book value per share of $2.97 at December 31, 2012.
 
At June 30, 2013, Bancorp’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.89%, 13.37% and 14.63%, respectively, and the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios were 10.90%, 13.35% and 14.61%, respectively, which meet regulatory benchmarks for a “well-capitalized” designation. Regulatory benchmarks for a “well-capitalized” designation are 5.00%, 6.00%, and 10.00% for Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital, respectively. However, in accordance with the memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with the FDIC and Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities (“DFCS”), the Bank and Bancorp are required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 10.00% to be considered “well-capitalized.” Additional information regarding capital requirements can be found in Note 10 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
From time to time the Company makes commitments to acquire banking properties or to make equipment or technology related investments of capital. At June 30, 2013, the Company had no material capital expenditure commitments apart from those incurred in the ordinary course of business.
 
Total Assets and Liabilities
 
Total assets were $1.4 billion at June 30, 2013, up $64.4 million from December 31, 2012. The increase in total assets during the period ended June 30, 2013 primarily resulted from the release of the DTA valuation allowance of $51.7 million, restoring the net DTA to $50.4 million, as well as an increase in loans held for sale and net loans of $74.2 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $16.7 million, a decrease of $40.3 million in investment securities available-for-sale and a decrease of $3.9 million from the disposition of OREO properties in 2013. The increase in net loans during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was primarily the result of an increased shared national credit portfolio included in commercial and industrial loans, augmented by growth in local owner-occupied commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans and residential real estate loans in connection with an improved real-estate market in the geographic regions in which we operate. The decline in investment securities available-for-sale during both the second quarter and first half of 2013 was primarily the result of the principal pay downs of our mortgage-backed securities and the payoff of short term commercial paper.
 
Total liabilities were $1.2 billion at June 30, 2013, a $17.3 million increase from December 31, 2012. This was primarily the result of a $28.0 million increase in total deposits, partially offset by reduced FHLB borrowings which decreased $10.0 million from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013. In June 30, 2013, the Company prepaid $60.0 million of FHLB advances bearing a weighted-average rate of 3.17% and re-borrowed $50.0 million at a 0.26% rate to lower future interest expense, as discussed above.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the customer contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank applies established credit-related standards and underwriting practices in evaluating the creditworthiness of such obligors. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Bank upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.
 
The Bank typically does not obtain collateral related to credit card commitments. Collateral held for other commitments varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.
 
Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third-party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third-party, the Bank would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Bank could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment were funded, the Bank would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. The Bank’s policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those involved in extending loans to customers. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
 
Other than those commitments discussed above, there are no other obligations or liabilities of the Company arising from its off-balance sheet arrangements that are or are reasonably likely to become material.  In addition, the Company knows of no event, demand, commitment, trend or uncertainty that will result in or is reasonably likely to result in the termination or material reduction in availability of the off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company had no material off balance sheet derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
Liquidity
 
The objective of the Bank’s liquidity management is to maintain sufficient cash flows to meet obligations for depositor withdrawals, to fund the borrowing needs of loan customers, and to fund ongoing operations. At June 30, 2013, liquid assets of the Bank are mainly interest bearing balances held at the FRB totaling $61.9 million compared to $78.7 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily the result of increased loans, discussed above.
 
Core relationship deposits are the Bank’s primary source of funds.  As such, the Bank focuses on deposit relationships with local business and consumer clients who maintain multiple accounts and services at the Bank. The Company views such deposits as the foundation of its long-term liquidity because it believes such core deposits are more stable and less sensitive to changing interest rates and other economic factors compared to large time deposits or wholesale purchased funds. The Bank’s customer relationship strategy has resulted in a relatively higher percentage of its deposits being held in checking and money market accounts, and a lesser percentage in time deposits.
 
The Bank augments core deposits with wholesale funds from time to time. Until the cease-and-desist order (the "Order") between the Bank and the FDIC and the DFCS was terminated on March 7, 2013, the Bank was restricted under the terms of the Order from accepting or renewing brokered deposits. Upon termination of the Order, the Bank began to accept local relationship-based reciprocal CDARS and DDM deposits. These deposits are technically classified as brokered deposits. At June 30, 2013, the Company had $15.1 million in reciprocal CDARS and $15.0 million in reciprocal DDM deposits. At December 31, 2012, the Company did not have any brokered deposits.
 
The Bank accepts public fund deposits in Oregon and Idaho and follows rules imposed by state authorities. Current rules imposed by the Oregon State Treasury require that the Bank collateralize 50% of the uninsured public funds of Oregon entities held by the Bank. At June 30, 2013, the Bank was in compliance with this statute. Currently there are no rules set on Idaho public deposits.
 
The Bank also utilizes borrowings and lines of credit as sources of funds. At June 30, 2013, the FHLB had extended the Bank a secured line of credit of $215.7 million (20.00% of total assets) accessible for short or long-term borrowings given sufficient qualifying collateral. As of June 30, 2013, the Bank had qualifying collateral pledged for FHLB borrowings totaling $281.4 million of which the Bank had utilized $50.0 million in secured borrowings. At June 30, 2013, the Bank also had undrawn borrowing capacity at FRB of approximately $13.2 million supported by specific qualifying collateral. Borrowing capacity from FHLB or FRB may fluctuate based upon the acceptability and risk rating of loan collateral, and counterparties could adjust discount rates applied to such collateral at their discretion. Also, FRB or FHLB could restrict or limit our access to secured borrowings. Correspondent banks have extended $40.1 million in unsecured or collateralized short-term lines of credit for the

41



purchase of federal funds. At June 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these federal fund borrowing agreements.
 
Liquidity may be affected by the Bank’s routine commitments to extend credit. At June 30, 2013, the Bank had approximately $242.4 million in total outstanding commitments to extend credit, compared to approximately $251.6 million at year-end 2012. At this time, management believes that the Bank’s available resources will be sufficient to fund its commitments in the normal course of business.
 
The investment portfolio also provides a secondary source of funds as investments may be pledged for borrowings or sold for cash. This liquidity is limited, however, by counterparties’ willingness to accept securities as collateral and the market value of securities at the time of sale could result in a loss to the Bank. As of June 30, 2013, the book value of unpledged investments totaled approximately $63.0 million compared to $134.6 million at December 31, 2012. The decline in unpledged investments was in part due to payoffs in the first quarter of 2013 of securities classified as unpledged at December 31, 2012 as well as reallocating unpledged collateral to pledge for certain public deposit customers in the Idaho/Treasure Valley area.
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Bank’s primary liquidity ratio (net cash, plus net short-term and marketable assets divided by net deposits and short-term liabilities) was 24.74%.
 
Bancorp is a single bank holding company and its primary ongoing source of liquidity is dividends received from the Bank. Oregon banking laws impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends by Oregon state chartered banks.  The amount of the dividend may not be greater than the Bank’s unreserved retained earnings, deducting from that, to the extent not already charged against earnings or reflected in a reserve, the following: (1) all bad debts, which are debts on which interest is past due and unpaid for at least six months, unless the debt is fully secured and in the process of collection; (2) all other assets charged off as required by the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services or a state or federal examiner; and (3) all accrued expenses, interest and taxes of the institution. The Bank received regulatory approval to adjust retained earnings to zero at September 30, 2012. Accordingly, Bank payment of dividends is constrained by the amount of increases in retained earnings from that date. In addition, pursuant to the MOU, the Bank is required to seek permission from its regulators prior to payment of cash dividends. In accordance with the terms of the written agreement dated October 26, 2009 between Bancorp and the FRB and DFCS (the "Written Agreement"), Bancorp was required to receive permission from its regulators prior to taking dividends from the Bank. On July 8, 2013, the Bank entered into a memorandum of understanding (“FRB-MOU”) with the FRB and DFCS which terminated the Written Agreement. During the life of the FRB-MOU, the Bank may not pay dividends without the written consent of the FDIC and DFCS and must comply with certain other provisions as agreed.
 
Inflation
 
The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different than on non-banking companies since virtually all of a bank’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. In particular, interest rates are significantly affected by inflation, but neither the timing nor magnitude of the changes are directly related to price level indices; therefore, the Company can best counter inflation over the long term by managing net interest income and controlling net increases in noninterest income and expenses.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide the information called for by this Item 3.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedure
 
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
