“During the third quarter, our loan balance increased 0.8% to $2.5 billion, deposits increased 2.2% to $2.5 billion, and we maintained our ACL to loan ratio at 1.17%, while reducing our non-performing assets and classified assets to total assets ratios to 0.24% and 0.32%, respectively.”

Mr. Kim added, “As we look ahead to the fourth quarter and next year, our strategic expansion of our footprint and branch network optimizations will provide us with continued strong balance sheet growth with solid financial results.”

Total funding is the sum of interest-bearing liabilities and noninterest-bearing deposits. The cost of total funding is calculated as annualized total interest expense divided by average total funding.

Loans. The increase in average yield for the current quarter was primarily due to a higher average loan rate throughout the current quarter, partially offset by a decrease in net amortization of deferred loan fees. The increase for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to increases in overall interest rates on loans and net amortization of deferred loan fees.

The following table presents a composition of total loans by interest rate type accompanied with the weighted-average contractual rates as of the dates indicated:

On September 18, 2024, the Federal Open Market Committee decreased the Fed Funds rate by 50 bps and this change resulted in an overall decrease in weighted-average contractual rates on variable rate loans in September 2024.

Investment Securities. The increases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date periods were primarily due to higher yield on newly purchased investment securities.

Other Interest-Earning Assets. The increases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2023 were primarily due to increases in interest rate on cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank and dividends received on Federal Home Loan Bank stock.

Interest-Bearing Deposits. The increases in average cost for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2023 were primarily due to an increase in market rates.

Salaries and Employee Benefits. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to decreases in bonus and vacation accruals. The increase for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to increases in salaries, bonus accrual, incentives tied to sales of SBA loans originated at loan production offices, and other employee benefits, partially offset by a decrease in vacation accrual. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 264, 265 and 270 as of September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

Occupancy and Equipment. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2023 were primarily due to an expansion of headquarters location in the second half of 2023 and a relocation of a regional office and two branches into one location in Orange County, California.

Professional Fees. During the first half of 2024, the Company incurred additional professional fees related to a core system conversion, which was completed in April 2024.

Marketing and Business Promotion. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to an increase in advertisements. The decrease for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2023 was primarily due to an increase in advertisements in 2023 periods for the Company’s 20th anniversary celebration.

Other Expense. The increase for the year-to-date period was primarily due to a termination charge for the legacy core system of $508 thousand and an expense of $815 thousand for a reimbursement for an SBA loan guarantee previously paid by the SBA on a loan originated in 2014 that subsequently defaulted and was ultimately determined to be ineligible for the SBA guaranty during the previous quarter. The Company has retained a law firm specializing in SBA recovery demands to seek that SBA reconsider the evidence and allow the Company to recoup all or part of the reimbursement.

Balance Sheet (Unaudited)

Total assets were $2.89 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $36.9 million, or 1.3%, from $2.85 billion at June 30, 2024, an increase of $100.3 million, or 3.6%, from $2.79 billion at December 31, 2023, and an increase of $321.9 million, or 12.5%, from $2.57 billion at September 30, 2023. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to increases in loans held-for-investment and other assets. During the current quarter, the Company invested $5.0 million in a qualified affordable housing project for lower income tenants in California. The recorded investment amount of the investment is included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (unaudited).

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 326 through the application of the modified retrospective transition approach. The initial adjustment to the ACL reflected the expected lifetime credit losses associated with the composition of financial assets within the scope of ASC 326 as of January 1, 2023, as well as management’s current expectation of future economic conditions. The Company recorded a net decrease of $1.9 million to the beginning balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect adjustment, reflecting an initial adjustment to the ACL on loans of $1.1 million and the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $1.6 million, net of related deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of $788 thousand.

Investment Securities

Total investment securities were $147.6 million at September 30, 2024, a decrease of $374 thousand, or 0.3%, from $148.0 million at June 30, 2024, but an increase of $4.3 million, 3.0%, from $143.3 million at December 31, 2023 and an increase of $8.4 million, or 6.0%, from $139.2 million at September 30, 2023. The decrease for the current quarter was primarily due to principal pay-downs of $5.6 million and net premium amortization of $41 thousand, partially offset by a fair value increase of $5.3 million. The increase for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to purchases of $14.8 million and a fair value increase of $3.5 million, partially offset by principal pay-downs of $13.9 million and net premium amortization of $123 thousand.

The increase for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to net income and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2.5 million, partially offset by cash dividends declared on common stock of $7.7 million, preferred stock dividends of $488 thousand, and repurchase of common stock of $222 thousand.

Series C Preferred Stock

On May 24, 2022, the Company issued 69,141 shares of Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”) for the capital investment of $69.1 million from the U.S. Treasury under the Emergency Capital Investment Program (“ECIP”). The ECIP investment is treated as tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes.

The Series C Preferred Stock bore no dividend for the first 24 months following the investment date. Thereafter, the dividend rate will be determined quarterly based on the lending growth criteria listed in the terms of the ECIP investment with an annual dividend rate of up to 2%. After the tenth anniversary of the investment date, the dividend rate will be fixed based on the average annual amount of lending in years 2 through 10.

The Company began paying quarterly dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock at an annualized dividend rate of 2% in the second quarter of 2024. The dividends totaled $346 thousand and $488 thousand for the current quarter and year-to-date period, respectively.
