PACIFIC CREST CREDIT CULTURE
INCOME PROPERTY LENDING

 

Philosophy: Asset Quality is Top Priority

 

                  Newer income property focus.

 

                  LTV’s average about 70%.

 

                  Outside appraisals plus internal review appraisal prior to funding.

 

                  Geographic and property type diversification.

 

                  Focus on small loans (average size $799,000 at 12/31/02).

 

                  Debt service coverage ratio of 1.25 or better at 4.50% LIBOR.

 

                  Impound property taxes.

 

                  Strict rule that loan quality control is more important than volume growth.

 

                  Senior Credit Committee (4 members) average 30+ years lending experience and 16+ years with Pacific Crest.

 

 



 

DEPOSIT STRATEGY

 

Our Goal: Knock Your Socks Off Personalized Service

 

Small number of branches (3) with over $100 million per branch in average deposits, located in very affluent areas of California: Beverly Hills, Encino, San Diego.

 

 

 

 

Intense personalized service with no customer lines.

 

 

 

 

Benefit from customer service chaos caused by industry consolidation.

 

 

 

 

Low staffing costs by extensive use of automation and limiting services.

 

 

 

 

Introduction in 2002 of full-service business checking and transactional web site should result in better deposit cost control and enhanced customer service.

 

 

 



 

BACKGROUND ON SIGNIFICANT RECENT
BALANCE SHEET DOWNSIZING

 

                  Trust Preferred Securities - 1997 issuance of $17.25 million at 9.375%.

 

                  Leveraged Trust Preferred capital in 1998-2000 period with investments in U.S. agency securities.

 

                  Downsizing of securities portfolio in 2001, coupled with 74% increase in FHLB credit line to $190 million in July 2002, created opportunity (ongoing) to change deposit strategy to maintain less rate-sensitive customer base.

 

                  Result: downsizing of total deposits by $139 million, or 28%, over past eight quarters ended December 31, 2002.

 

 



 

PRIMARY FINANCIAL GOAL

 

Consistent ROAE Between 15% and 20%.  High and reliable ROAE  is strongly correlated with market valuation of common stock.

 

Five-year average ROAE is 16.5%

 

 


* ROAE computation excludes the effect of FAS 115 “other comprehensive income or loss” on equity.  Inclusion of this effect would substantially increase ROAE in 1999 and 2000 to 18.0% and 19.3% respectively and increase five year ROE over 16.5%.
