1st Pacific Bancorp (“we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) may from time to time make written or oral “forward-looking statements,” including statements contained in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the exhibits hereto), in our reports to shareholders and in other communications by us, which are made in good faith by us pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and are subject to risk, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this quarterly report and the other documents that are incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the safe harbors created by Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company provides the following cautionary statements identifying important factors (some of which are beyond our control) which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

· Risks associated with concentrations, including commercial real estate loans, in the loan portfolio.

· The questionable availability of take-out financing or problems with sales or lease-up with respect to commercial and residential projects, due to the current economic environment.

· Competitors in our market area of similar size, with similar business plans and/or offering similar services.

· Our ability to develop competitive new products and services and the acceptance of those products and services by targeted customers and, when required, regulators.

· Our ability to securely and effectively implement new technology (including Internet services) for both the delivery of services and internal operations.

· The willingness of customers to substitute competitors’ products and services for our products and services and vice versa.

1st Pacific Bancorp

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 — Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 1st Pacific Bancorp (the “Company”) and the consolidated accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiary, 1st Pacific Bank of California (the “Bank”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting.

The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), required management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Operating results for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in subsequent quarters or for the full year ending December 31, 2009.

Aside from its ownership of the Bank, the Company is inactive except for interest expense associated with junior subordinated debentures and certain other corporate expenses. The Company formed a Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the “Trust”) for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities. For financial reporting purposes, the Company accounts for its investment in the Trust using the equity method under which the subsidiary’s net earnings are recognized in the Company’s statement of income, pursuant to an accounting standard which was subsequently codified into Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) - Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidation.” Pursuant to this accounting standard, the Trust is not consolidated into the Company’s financial statements. The Federal Reserve Board has ruled that subordinated notes payable to unconsolidated special purpose entities (“SPE’s”) such as the Trust, net of the bank holding company’s investment in the SPE, qualify as Tier 1 Capital, subject to certain limits. See the “Borrowings” section of Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations below for further details regarding the trust preferred securities.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary to fairly present the financial position of the Company for the interim period ended September 30, 2009. These financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP and have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. There were no significant changes in accounting principles since the last report.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals and provisions, necessary for a fair presentation thereof.

Note 2 — Stock-Based Compensation Plans

During the three month periods ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2009, the Company recognized pre-tax stock-based compensation expense of $37,300 and $58,313, respectively, pursuant to an accounting standard which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation.” For the nine month period ended, September 30, 2008, the Company recognized pre-tax compensation expense of $181,100 compared to $198,247 for the same period of 2009. The stock-based compensation expense is calculated based upon the original grant date fair value as allowed under ASC Topic 718. The valuation variables utilized at the grant dates are discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2008 fiscal year

Table of Contents

filed on March 31, 2009 in the respective years of the original grants. There were no grants of performance based options or stock during the first nine months of 2009. The following table is a summary of non-performance based stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2009:

	For the Nine Months
Non-Performance Based Options	Ended September 30, 2009

Outstanding at Beginning of Period	922,148
Granted	15,500
Exercised	—
Forfeited and Expired	(44,500	)

Outstanding at End of Period	893,148

As of September 30, 2009, the Company expects to realize approximately $615,141 of unrecognized compensation expense for non-performance based stock options which will be expensed over the remaining vesting period. Non-performance based options generally vest over five years and have a weighted average remaining vesting period of approximately 1.99 years. Unrecognized compensation expense related to performance based options of $196,384 will be recognized only when the performance and vesting criteria are met. The Company has not recognized any pre-tax compensation expense related to performance based options in 2009 because the performance and vesting criteria are not expected to be met.

Note 3 — Recent Accounting Changes

In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which established the Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) which became the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities, with the exception of guidance issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its staff. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification is not intended to change GAAP, but rather is expected to simplify accounting research by reorganizing current GAAP into approximately 90 accounting topics. The Company adopted this accounting standard in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended September 30, 2009. The adoption of this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” had no impact on retained earnings and will have no impact on the Company’s statements of income and condition.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which amends current GAAP related to the accounting for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities, including the removal of the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from GAAP. This new accounting standard also clarifies that a transferor must evaluate whether it has maintained effective control of a financial asset by considering its continuing direct or indirect involvement with the transferred financial asset. This accounting standard is effective for financial asset transfers occurring after December 31, 2009. The adoption of this accounting standard will have no impact on the Company’s statements of income and condition.

In May 2009, FASB issued an accounting standard that established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued which was effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The standard states that public companies are required to assess subsequent events through the date of issuance. The statement also requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. The financial statements of the entity should reflect the effects of all subsequent events that are considered “recognized.” Recognized subsequent events are those that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. “Nonrecognized” subsequent events, which the entity is not required to recognize in the financial statements, are those that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the

Table of Contents

balance sheet and before the financial statements are issued (widely distributed to shareholders and other financial statement users for general use) or are available to be issued (when they are complete in a form and format that complies with GAAP and all approvals necessary for issuance have been obtained). If a nonrecognized subsequent event is of such a nature that, if not disclosed, will cause the financial statements to be misleading, management should disclose the nature of the event and an estimate of is financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. See Note 8 for the disclosures required under this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events.”

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This standard requires, among other things, that an acquirer recognize at fair value, at the acquisition date, an asset acquired or a liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency if the acquisition-date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. The adoption of this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” will not affect the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations as of this filing.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provided guidance on estimating fair value when the volume and level of trading activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased and guidance on identifying transactions that are not orderly. In such instances, the accounting standard provides that management may determine that further analysis of the transactions or quoted prices is required, and a significant adjustment to the transactions or quoted prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with GAAP. This issue is effective for reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The provisions in this accounting standard were applied prospectively and did not result in significant changes to the Company’s valuation techniques. Furthermore, the adoption of this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s statements of income and condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard related to disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments in interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies that were previously only required to be disclosed in annual financial statements. The Company adopted this accounting standard in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended June 30, 2009. As this accounting standard amended only the disclosure requirements about the fair value of financial instruments in interim periods, the adoption had no impact on the Company’s statements of income and condition. See Note 7 for the disclosures required under this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments.”

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which amended other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) guidance in GAAP for debt securities by requiring a write-down when fair value is below amortized cost in circumstances where: (1) an entity has the intent to sell a security; (2) it is more likely than not that an entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) an entity does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. If an entity intends to sell a security or if it is more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery, an OTTI write-down is recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value. If an entity does not intend to sell the security or it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, the OTTI write-down is separated into an amount representing credit loss, which is recognized in earnings, and an amount related to all other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. This accounting standard does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to OTTI write-downs of equity securities. This accounting standard also extends disclosure requirements related to debt and equity securities to interim reporting periods. The provisions of this standard were effective for the company’s interim period ending on June 30, 2009. The adoption of this accounting standard had no impact on retained earnings and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s statements of income and condition. See Note 4 for the disclosures required under this accounting standard, which was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 320, “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.”

Note 4 — Investment Securities

As reported in Note 3, ASC Topic 320, “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities” requires companies to record other-than-temporary impairment charges, through earnings, if they have the intent to sell, or will more likely than not be required to sell, an impaired debt security before a recovery of its amortized cost basis. In addition, this standard requires companies to record other-than-temporary impairment charges through earnings for the amount of credit losses, regardless of the intent or requirement to sell. Credit loss is measured as the difference between the present value of an impaired debt security’s cash flows and its amortized cost basis. Non-credit related write-downs to fair value must be recorded as decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income as long as a company has no intent or requirement to sell an impaired security before a recovery of amortized cost basis. Finally, the standard requires companies to record all previously recorded non-credit related other-than-temporary impairment charges for debt securities as cumulative effect adjustments to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. This standard was effective and was adopted by the Company for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Since the Company did not have any other-than-temporary impairment as of March 31, 2009, no cumulative effect adjustments were required at adoption.

At September 30, 2009, certain investment securities included in available-for-sale categories had a fair value that was below their amortized cost. The Company conducts a regular assessment of its investment portfolio to determine whether any securities are other-than-temporarily impaired. This assessment is based on the nature of the securities, the financial condition of the issuer and the extent and duration of the loss. Also, as required by ASC Topic 320, the Company assesses whether it intends to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current period credit losses. As of September 30, 2009, based on the nature of these investments and as the Company does not have the intent to sell the securities that are temporarily impaired and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell those securities before recovery of the cost basis, these unrealized losses were not considered other-than-temporary. Also see Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Investment section below.

The tables below set forth the composition of the Company’s portfolio of available for sale securities for the periods ended September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008:

Unrealized losses at September 30, 2009, are concentrated in four private-label collateralized mortgage obligations which were purchased during 2008 and have been affected by the dislocation in the securities market. Management monitors these bonds on a monthly basis and evaluates underlying data for indications of any OTTI.

The scheduled maturities of securities available for sale at September 30, 2009 are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some investment securities may allow the right to call or prepay the obligation with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Note 5 — Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Dividends

The earnings (loss) per common share of the Company is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock which share in the Company’s earnings (loss). Common stock equivalents for 2009 and 2008 have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share since their effect was anti-dilutive.

To date, the Company has not paid any cash dividends. Payment of stock or cash dividends in the future will depend upon the Company’s earnings and financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, as well as the Company’s legal ability to pay dividends.

Note 6 — Fair Values Measurement

As reported in Note 3, ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This statement describes methods used to appropriately measure fair value in accordance with GAAP, expands fair value disclosure requirements and applies whenever other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements.

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value for ASC Topic 820 are grouped in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. This standard establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value at times other than the purchase or sale of an asset or liability. These tiers include:

· Level 1: Quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities.

· Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

· Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are described below:

Securities The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2).

Other Real Estate Owned The fair value of foreclosed real estate is generally based on estimated market prices from independently prepared appraisals and adjusted for current market conditions, as necessary, on a nonrecurring basis. When a current appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, management assumptions are used to adjust fair value, if necessary (Level 3).

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans The Bank does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, fair value adjustments are recorded on these loans to reflect (1) partial write-downs, through charge-offs or specific reserve allowances, that are based on the current appraised or market-quoted value of the underlying collateral or (2) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value. In some cases, the properties for which market quotes or appraised values have been obtained are located in areas where comparable sales data is limited, outdated, or unavailable. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent impaired loans are obtained from real estate brokers or other third-party consultants (Level 3).

The tables below present the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value (in thousands):

(1) Represents Other Real Estate Owned net of cost to sell of $258,000 (excludes OREO assets with a fair value greater than cost).

Note 7 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments

As reported in Note 3, ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies that were previously only required to be disclosed in annual financial statements. The Company’s estimated fair value amounts below have been determined by the Bank using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments:

Financial Assets The carrying amounts of cash, short-term investments, and due from customers on acceptances and bank acceptances outstanding are considered to approximate fair value. Short-term investments include federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and interest bearing deposits with banks. The fair values of investment securities, including available for sale, are based on quoted market prices of similar securities, if available, or other model-based valuation techniques, also known as matrix pricing (See Note 6 - Fair Value Measurement above). The fair value of loans is estimated using a combination of techniques, including discounting estimated future cash flows.

Financial Liabilities The carrying amounts of deposit liabilities payable on demand, commercial paper, and other borrowed funds are considered to approximate fair value. For fixed maturity deposits, fair value is estimated by discounting estimated future cash flows using currently offered rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of long-term debt is based on rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fair value of these financial instruments is not material.

Note 8 — Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 13, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

On October 28, 2009, 1st Pacific Bancorp (“1st Pacific Bancorp”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, 1st Pacific Bank of California, FB Bancorp and First Business Bank, National Association (“First Business Bank”), entered into a Termination Agreement (“Termination Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties terminated the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 16, 2009, between such parties (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement was terminated by the mutual consent of the parties in part because the current economic and regulatory environment presented unanticipated complications that could not be overcome given the structure of the transaction. No early termination penalties were incurred by any of the parties to the Merger Agreement in connection with its termination. Along with the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Termination Agreement also provides for the mutual release of claims by the parties against each other arising out of the Merger Agreement. Details regarding the Termination Agreement were included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K which was filed with SEC on October 29, 2009. All of the Company’s required SEC Filings are posted on its web site at www.1stpacbank.com.

Recently, the Worker, Homeownership and Business Assistance Act of 2009 (H.R. 3548) was signed into law. Among other things, the bill expands the ability of medium and large-sized companies to carryback net operating loss deductions up to five years. Previously, these carryback provisions were limited to two years. The Company is still evaluating the potential impact of this new law on its tax position.

ITEM 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Basis of Presentation

The Company is a California corporation incorporated on August 4, 2006 and is registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. 1st Pacific Bank of California (the “Bank”) is a wholly-owned bank subsidiary of the Company and was incorporated in California on April 17, 2000. The Bank is a California corporation licensed to operate as a commercial bank under the California Banking Law by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the “DFI”). In accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) insures the deposits of the Bank. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System.

The reorganization to form a holding company was completed on January 16, 2007, whereby all outstanding shares of the Bank were converted into an equal number of shares of the Company. Prior to the reorganization, the Company had minimal activity, which was primarily related to preparing for the reorganization. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report for the 2008 fiscal year as filed on Form 10-K and with the unaudited financial statements and notes set forth in this report. Our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K also includes a discussion of critical accounting policies considered material to this presentation of the Company’s financial statements. At present time, the holding company does not engage in any material business activities other than ownership of the Bank; therefore, financial information is primarily reflective of the Bank.

Certain statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking in nature and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results. For a discussion of some of the factors that might cause such a difference, see the Forward-Looking Statements section above or Item 1A — Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Nature of Operations

The Company is organized as a single operating unit and, through the Bank, operates seven full-service offices in southern California, three in San Diego, one in Oceanside, one in El Cajon, one in Solana Beach and one in La Jolla. A limited service branch office which was opened in downtown San Diego in February 2008 will be consolidated into the Mission Valley branch office shortly after year end.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is dividends from the Bank. The Bank’s primary source of revenue is interest earned on loans it provides to customers. The Bank funds its lending activities primarily through providing deposit products and services to customers, but also through borrowings, including advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The Bank’s customers are predominately small and medium-sized businesses and professionals in San Diego County.

Financial Overview

For all banks and bank holding companies, asset quality and asset growth have a significant impact on overall financial condition and results of operations. Asset quality is measured in terms of percentage of total loans and total assets, and is a key element in estimating future performance. As of September 30, 2009, nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans was 5.28%, an increase of 179 basis points since December 31, 2008. The Company’s quality of assets has been affected by the difficult economic conditions in California, especially weaknesses in the real estate market. In addition, both the fiscal and regulatory policies of the federal and state government regulatory authorities that govern financial institutions and market interest rates impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

The Company has implemented strategies and initiatives to improve its asset quality and operating results and increase the Bank’s capital ratios from “adequately capitalized” back to the “well capitalized” level. While the Company, under normal circumstances, considers asset growth important, the current strategy is to reduce the total assets of the Bank to improve capital ratios. As part of this strategy, the Bank is committed to reducing its concentration of commercial real estate loans and has continued to carefully track nonaccrual and potential problem loans (see the “Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses” section below).

Along with the strategy noted above and in an effort to reduce controllable expenses, the Company implemented a reduction in force of eleven employees in October 2009. This difficult decision was made in an effort to reduce expenses so that the Company would have an opportunity to return to a profitable financial condition. In addition, the limited service downtown San Diego branch office will be consolidated into the Mission Valley branch office shortly after year end.

Total assets at September 30, 2009, were $393.5 million compared to $419.9 million at June 30, 2009, $420.9 million at December 31, 2008 and $445.6 million at September 30, 2008. Between second quarter and third quarter, assets declined by $26.4 million and deposits decreased by $20.5 million, which includes a $19.3 million reduction in Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARs”) deposits. The company also retired FHLB borrowings of $5.0 million during the third quarter.

Total loans decreased $1.5 million to $350.4 million by September 30, 2009, compared to $351.9 million at December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2008 deposits totaled approximately $333.8 compared to $317.8 million at September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $16.0 million.

At September 30, 2009, the Bank’s Total Risk-Based capital ratio was 8.4% and the Bank is considered “adequately capitalized.” Total Risk-Based capital ratio was 8.7% at December 31, 2008. Also see the “Capital Resources” section below.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded a loss before taxes of $1.9 million compared to a loss before taxes of $5,169 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded a loss before taxes of $3.5 million compared to a loss before taxes of $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

After tax, the Company realized net losses for both the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 totaling $1.9 million and $3.1 million, respectively, compared to net income of $9,531 and a net loss of $1.2 million, in the same periods of 2008. No income tax provision (benefit) has been recognized since March 2009, as a result of increasing the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Compared to the three month period ended September 2008, the Company’s 2009 results include an increase in provision for loan losses from $250,000 to $1.5 million, respectively. However, the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $2.3 million compared to $3.8 million for the first nine months of 2008. Net interest margin was 3.74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with 4.26% for the same period of the previous year. The Company has an asset sensitive balance sheet and continues to be effected by significant rate cuts of the Federal Reserve during 2008. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $11.4 million compared to $13.2 million for the same period of the previous year.

Several items had a significant impact on the operating results for the nine months ended September 2009 compared to those of the same period of the prior year. Increases in income included approximately $229,000 for the realization of a gain upon sale of a Washington Mutual, Inc. corporate bond and $285,000 for recoveries of prior expenses. These income items were offset by several large increases in expenses including approximately $1.1 million for losses on other real estate owned (“OREO”) properties, $721,000 for FDIC special assessments and insurance increases, $301,000 for professional fees related to loan collection and review, $289,000 in merger related costs, $165,000 for recognition of a loss on the sublease of a portion of the Solana Beach branch office and $147,000 in costs related to carrying OREO. Also see the Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense sections below.

Liquidity Management and Cash Flows

The Company’s balance sheet liquidity, which is a measure of its ability to meet fluctuations in deposit levels and provide for customers’ credit needs, is managed through various funding strategies that reflect the maturity structures of the sources of funds being gathered and the assets being funded. Liquidity primarily relies on funds from short-term liabilities such as demand deposits, certificates of deposit, and short-term borrowings and is augmented by payments of principal and interest on loans. Access to short-term investments, primarily Federal funds sold, is the primary means for providing immediate liquidity.

To augment immediate balance sheet liquidity, the Company maintains various credit and borrowing facilities. In general, credit and borrowing facilities may be reduced or withdrawn at any time and may include provisions for pledging of collateral. Following is a summary of the total borrowing capacity available under these facilities and amounts outstanding at September 30, 2009:

Source of Borrowing Facility	Capacity		Outstanding at September 30, 2009
Secured line based on pledged loan collateral at:
Federal Home Loan Bank	$	45,172,007	$	40,000,000
Federal Reserve Bank	$	35,046,050	$	—

In the second quarter, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”) and FHLB requested physical delivery of loan collateral to secure the Company’s borrowing lines. Additionally, the FRB limited the Company’s borrowing to terms under the Secondary Credit Program. The rate on Secondary Credit is 50 basis points higher and maturities are generally limited to overnight. The Bank has fulfilled and expects to continue to fulfill all collateral requirements of the FRB and FHLB.

The strategy of the Company’s management regarding its liquidity position is to manage and monitor liquidity proactively to ensure the safety and soundness of the Company’s capital base, while maintaining adequate net interest margins and spreads to provide an appropriate return to shareholders. The Company has procedures in place to manage its liquidity on a daily basis and maintains “contingency” sources of liquidity, whereby a certain level of liquidity sources are reserved to be used for unforeseen contingency purposes.

As a result of the Bank being considered “adequately capitalized,” the Bank is not able to accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits unless and until such time as it receives a waiver from the FDIC. As the brokered deposits mature, the Bank anticipates funding these maturities primarily from loan payoffs as it shrinks its loan portfolio. If the Bank is unable to reduce its loan portfolio to fund maturing brokered deposits, it will need to seek other alternatives, which may be more costly for funding purposes, as these brokered deposits mature. These other sources may include local deposit campaigns or institutional time deposits. As of September 30, 2009, the Bank had total brokered deposits of $52.0 million, including $7.4 million in CDARs, a program offered to its customers seeking additional deposit insurance. Total brokered deposits at March 31, 2009 were $110.8 million, including $37.0 million in CDARs deposits.

In order to manage liquidity, the Company’s management monitors a number of liquidity ratios, including the level of liquid assets to funding sources (both on and off the balance sheet), the level of dependence on non-core funding sources, the level of loans to funding sources, the level of short-term investments to total assets, contingent sources to total deposits, available liquidity to total funding and the level of unfunded loan commitments. Because of the Bank’s strategy to improve capital ratios by reducing total assets, the Bank has been managing its balance sheet liquidity very closely and replacing maturing brokered deposits only as needed. Preferably, the Bank will continue to see reductions in loan assets to offset maturing brokered deposits. As of September 30, 2009, management of the Company considers its liquidity sufficient to meet the Company’s liquidity needs.

Despite recording a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company had positive cash flow from operating activities because the net loss generally resulted from non cash charges, including provision for loan losses, loss on sublease, depreciation and other non-cash expenses. The Company’s net cash provided by investing activities of $8.1 million consisted mainly of an increase of approximately $1.4 million in loans offset by maturities and sales of investment securities totaling $8.3 million, a $597,000 change in equity securities and $837,000 in proceeds from sale of OREO. Net cash used by financing activities of $26.0 million was due to a $10.0 million decrease in FHLB borrowings and a decrease in deposits of $16.0 million.

Borrowings

The Company’s total amount of FHLB borrowings decreased $5.0 million to $40.0 million during the third quarter of 2009 compared to $45.0 million at June 30, 2009 and $50.0 million at December 31, 2008. A holding of subordinated debt of $10.2 million has not changed since December 31, 2007. The following is a schedule of FHLB advances at September 30, 2009, in order of final maturity date:

Date of Advance	Final Maturity Date	Rate		Principal Balance

The Company maintains $5.0 million in Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures issued in March, 2005, with a final maturity of June 15, 2020, a right on behalf of the Bank for early redemptions beginning in March, 2010, and an interest rate which floats quarterly based on 3 Month LIBOR plus a spread of 178 basis points. The coupon interest rate on the subordinated debt as of September 30, 2009 was 2.08% (3 month LIBOR plus 1.78%).

In June 2007, the Company issued $5.0 million in floating rate preferred securities (the “Trust Preferred Securities”) through a Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the “Trust”). The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities together with the proceeds from the sale of common securities to purchase $5,155,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s unsecured floating rate junior subordinated debt securities due September 1, 2037 issued by the Company (the “Junior Subordinated Debt Securities”). As of September 30, 2009, the coupon interest rate was 1.76% (3 month LIBOR plus 1.40%) and floats quarterly.

Due to the current financial condition of the Bank, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco has requested certain limits on our paying of dividends, making payments on trust preferred securities or any other capital distributions. In this regard, the Company has resolved not to declare or pay any dividends without prior approval of the FRB and the Bank has agreed not to declare or pay any dividends without prior approval of the FRB and the DFI. The Company has deferred payment on the trust preferred securities in accordance with and allowable under the indenture agreement and does not anticipate resuming those payments in the near term. The Company’s inability to receive dividends from the Bank could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. See also the Liquidity Management, Interest Rate Risk, Financing and Capital Resources section of the Company’s on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Capital Resources

Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2009, totaled $20.5 million compared to $22.6 million at December 31, 2008. Tangible book value per share totaled $3.89 at September 30, 2009, compared to $4.26 as of December 31, 2008 and $6.38 at September 30, 2008.

Regulatory capital adequacy requirements state that the Bank must maintain minimum ratios to be categorized as “well capitalized” or “adequately capitalized.” The Company is not subject to similar regulatory capital requirements because its consolidated assets do not exceed $500 million, the minimum asset size criteria for bank

holding companies subject to those requirements. The Bank’s actual consolidated capital ratios and the required ratios for a “well capitalized” and “adequately capitalized” bank are as follows:

	Required Ratios				Actual Ratios
	Well		Adequately
	Capitalized		Capitalized		September 30, 2009		December 31, 2008

Tier 1 Leverage Capital (to Average Assets)	5.00	%	4.00	%	5.07	%	5.39	%
Tier 1 Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets)	6.00	%	4.00	%	5.74	%	6.17	%
Total Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets)	10.00	%	8.00	%	8.37	%	8.73	%

The Bank has implemented a number of initiatives to improve its operating results and increase its capital ratios from “adequately capitalized” back to the “well capitalized” level. These initiatives include strategies to reduce the total assets of the Bank and improve the Bank’s core operating earnings.

The primary source of our funds from which the Company services its debt and pays its obligations and dividends is through the receipt of dividends from the Bank. Based on the financial condition of the Bank, various statutes and regulations have limited the availability of dividends to the Company from the Bank. In this regard, the Bank has agreed with the DFI and the FRB to seek their approval before paying dividends to the Company. As a result, if the Bank continues to be unable to pay dividends to the Company, the Company may not be able to service its debt, pay its obligations or pay dividends on its outstanding equity securities. The Bank’s continued inability to pay dividends to the Company has and will continue to adversely affect business operations, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Investments

The main objective of the Company’s investment portfolio is to provide secondary liquidity sources to meet fluctuations in loan demand and deposit structure. The investment portfolio is also used to meet pledging requirements of public or other depositors, minimize tax liability, accomplish strategic goals and assist various local public entities with their financing needs. The Company actively manages its investment portfolio and coordinates borrowings with the goal of achieving a positive, stable net interest spread.

The Company’s investment portfolio consisted of $18.4 million in available for sale securities as of September 30, 2009, a decrease of $8.0 million since September 30, 2008 and a decrease of $6.7 million since December 31, 2008. During the first nine months of 2009, $2.7 million of the Company’s corporate bonds were sold and $3.0 million matured. See also Note 4 — Investment Securities above.

Loan Portfolio

Total loans decreased by $1.5 million from $351.9 million at December 31, 2008 to $350.4 million at September 30, 2009. Residential and commercial real estate loans, consumer loans and SBA loans increased by approximately $2.8 million, $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Construction and land loans and commercial loans decreased by $6.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

Total loans decreased 4.0% when compared to $365.7 million at the end of the same quarter of 2008. At September 30, 2009 the portfolio consisted of approximately: 43% residential and commercial real estate, 30% construction and land, 19% commercial loans, 5% consumer loans and 3% SBA type loans. The Bank does not engage in traditional long-term mortgage lending, and consequently, has no sub-prime mortgages in its loan portfolio.

Loan Quality and the Allowance for Loan Losses

Trends in Certain Loan Quality Categories

The following information is provided to show relevant trends related to various components of our loan portfolio since December 31, 2008.

Nonperforming Loans — Nonperforming loans decreased from $12.3 million at December 31, 2008, to $9.4 million at June 30, 2009 and then increased to $18.5 million at September 30, 2009. The year to date net increase of $6.2 million is primarily the result of the following:

· During the first quarter, three loans were paid off, including two construction loans and one land loan, totaling approximately $4.6 million.

· During the first quarter, we foreclosed on four properties reducing nonaccrual loans by approximately $3.4 million. These properties included three land loans and one commercial real estate loan.

· During the second quarter, a total of $738,400 in reductions in nonaccrual loans occurred including a $314,000 land loan payoff, a $350,000 construction loan pay down and two commercial loan charge offs totaling $74,400.

· During the second quarter, a total of $3.8 million in increases in nonaccrual loans occurred. Five loans were added to nonaccrual status including two land loans totaling $3.4 million, two commercial loans totaling $193,300 and one commercial real estate term loan for $210,000.

· During the third quarter, $1.3 million in reductions in nonaccrual loans occurred including $555,000 in payoffs for one real estate loan and two commercial loans, a $257,000 commercial loan was charged off and there were $463,000 in partial charge offs.

· During the third quarter, $11.6 million in increases in nonaccrual loans occurred. Six loans were added to nonaccrual status including a construction loan for $7.7 million, two land loans for $1.9 million, one real estate loan for $1.7 million and two commercial loans for $283,000.

· Between June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009 loans 90 days past due but still accruing, which are considered nonperforming loans, decreased $961,000. At June 30, 2009, there were two commercial loans greater than 90 days past due but still accruing for the same borrower totaling $2.7 million. Both of these loans were subsequently paid current. As of September 30, 2009, one land loan totaling $1.8 million was 90 days past due but still accruing.

Special Mention Loans - Loans internally graded and categorized as special mention increased from $32.9 million at December 31, 2008, to $39.0 at June 30, 2009 and then decreased to $24.3 million as of September 30, 2009. The year to date net decrease of $8.6 million is primarily the result of the following:

· During the first quarter, one construction loan totaling $5.2 million was upgraded from substandard due to resolution of lien issues and virtual completion of the project.

· During the first quarter, six special mention loans totaling $10.6 million were downgraded to substandard, including three land and construction loans, one real estate secured term loans and two commercial loans — one guaranteed by the SBA.

· During February and March, nine additional loans totaling $20.5 million were internally downgraded to special mention. These loans included five construction loans and four commercial loans — one guaranteed by the SBA.

· During the second quarter, a total of $15.0 million in reductions of special mention loans occurred including $3.7 million in payoffs or pay downs (three commercial loans and one construction loans), $9.3 million in downgrades to substandard (two construction loans and one commercial loan) and $2.0 million in internal upgrades for one commercial loan and one construction loan.

· During the second quarter, $4.4 million in increases to special mention loans occurred from internal upgrades for four commercial loans and two construction loans.

· During the third quarter, a total of $32.5 million in reductions of special mention loans occurred including $17.5 million in downgrades to substandard (two construction loans, two land loans, one commercial loan and one real estate loan), $14.7 million in internal upgrades (two construction loans, two real estate loans and one commercial loan) and $275,000 in payoffs (one real estate loan).

Table of Contents

· During the third quarter, $18.0 million in increases to special mention loans occurred including $16.8 million in internal downgrades (two real estate loans and two construction loans), $1.2 million in internal upgrades (one commercial loan).

Substandard Loans - Total loans in this category increased from $22.7 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2008 to $25.5 million at June 30, 2009 and then to $36.0 million at September 30, 2009. The year to date net increase of $13.3 million in this category was concentrated as follows:

· Approximately $7.8 million and $457,400 of the payoffs, charge offs and foreclosures in nonperforming loans outlined above reduced substandard loans for the first and second quarters, respectively.

· During the first quarter, one construction loan totaling $5.2 million was upgraded to special mention due to resolution of lien issues and virtual completion of the project.

· During the first quarter, six special mention loans totaling $10.6 million were downgraded to substandard, including three land and construction loans, one real estate secured term loan and two commercial loans — one guaranteed by the SBA.

· During the second quarter, a total of $3.5 million in reductions of substandard loans occurred, including $412,000 for three commercial loans that were charged off, $2.7 million in loans upgraded (two commercial and one real estate) and $315,000 for a land loan pay off.

· During the second quarter, a total of $9.7 million in increases in substandard loans occurred including $9.3 million for loans that were downgraded from special mention status (two construction loans and one commercial loan) and $434,000 for four commercial loans that were downgraded.

· During the third quarter, a total of $6.5 million in reductions of substandard loans occurred, including $5.2 million in internal upgrades (one construction loan and one commercial loan), $555,000 in payoffs (two commercial and one real estate loan), $463,000 in partial charge offs and $270,000 in charge offs (two commercial loans).

· During the third quarter, a total of $17.5 million in increases to the substandard loan category occurred, including $17.4 million in internal downgrades (two construction loans, two land loans, one commercial loan and one real estate loan).

Nonperforming assets

The Company’s nonperforming assets consist of loans which have (i) been placed on nonaccrual status, (ii) been subject to troubled debt restructurings, or (iii) become contractually past due 90 days or more with respect to principal or interest and have not been restructured or otherwise placed on nonaccrual status. Generally, loans are placed in nonaccrual status when they are past due 90 days or more and management has determined that they may not be fully collectible as to principal and interest. Nonperforming loans may be internally graded and categorized as either special mention or substandard.

Nonperforming assets were $21.1 million, or 5.35% of total assets, at September 30, 2009, compared with $14.9 million, or 3.54% of total assets, at December 31, 2008 and $13.8 million, or 3.10% of total assets at September 30, 2008. The Company’s nonperforming assets as of September 30, 2009 consisted of $18.5 million in nonperforming loans and $2.6 million in other real estate owned. Nonaccrual loans, as well as other potential problem loans, are subject to continuing management attention and are considered in the determination of the allowance for loan losses.

Nonperforming assets at the end of September 2009 include loan balances of approximately $612,246 with an SBA guaranty amount of $459,184. Other nonperforming loans at the end of September 2009 included six construction and land loans, two real estate loans and two single family residence loans totaling approximately $12.7 million, $2.4 million and $988,000, respectively. The Company also had one land loan totaling $1.8 million that was considered nonperforming because it was past due more than 90 days at September 30, 2009. All nonperforming loans are independently evaluated in connection with assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Below is a summary of nonperforming assets at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Other Potential Problem Loans

At September 30, 2009, in addition to loans disclosed above as nonperforming, management identified two potential problem loans totaling approximately $8.4 million, which are currently being evaluated for collateral values and operating cash flows. Estimated potential problem loans as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 totaled approximately $1.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Loans are considered potential problem loans when the borrower’s ability to comply with the present loan payment terms in the future is questionable. The inability of the borrower to comply with repayment terms was not sufficiently probable to place these loans on nonaccrual status at September 30, 2009. Although these loans are currently continuing to accrue interest, no assurance can be given that they will continue to do so. Estimated possible losses from these potential problem loans have been provided for in determining the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2009. See additional loan portfolio information in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses that is increased by a provision for loan losses charged against operating results. The provision for loan losses is determined by management as the amount to be added to the allowance for probable loan losses after net charge-offs have been deducted to bring the allowance to an adequate level to absorb probable loan losses within the existing portfolio.

A provision for loan losses of $1.5 million was made in the third quarter of 2009 compared to $250,000 in provision for the same period of the prior year. Net loan charge-offs were $872,468 during the third quarter of 2009 compared with net charge-offs of $161,734 for the previous quarter. The total allowance for loan losses was $6.3 million, or 1.80% of total loans, at September 30, 2009, compared to $5.1 million, or 1.44% of total loans at December 31, 2008, and $4.1 million, or 1.11% of total loans at September 30, 2008.

No assurance can be given that economic conditions, which could adversely affect the Company’s service areas or other circumstances, will not be reflected in increased provisions for loan losses in the future. Management believes that the allowance at September 30, 2009, is adequate to cover potential future losses. However, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that a substantial increase will not be necessary should the quality of any loans in the portfolio deteriorate. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The table below summarizes the changes in allowance for loan losses for the periods presented:

Deposits

As of September 30, 2009, total deposits have decreased approximately $16.0 million to $317.8 million from $333.8 million at December 31, 2008. This net decrease in deposits is mostly attributable to a $28.8 million decrease in CDARs deposits and a $12.1 million decrease in money market deposits offset by increases in demand deposit accounts and NOW accounts of $23.3 million and approximately $778,500, respectively. The decrease in money market deposits includes a $6.0 million brokered account that was closed when the Bank became adequately capitalized.

Total time deposits include funds that are considered brokered deposits, which totaled $52.5 million at September 30, 2009 and included approximately $7.4 million in funds associated with customers using the CDARs reciprocal program. See also the Liquidity Management and Cash Flows section above for additional information regarding the Company’s CDARs restrictions. Brokered deposits totaled $84.9 million at December 31, 2008.

Income Statement Review

Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

The principal component of the Company’s revenues is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. The following table sets forth the components of net interest income, average earning assets and net interest margin:

	Three Months						Nine Months
	Ended September 30,						Ended September 30,
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Interest Income	$	5,593,533		$	6,919,284		$	17,285,173		$	21,112,803
Interest Expense	1,724,261			2,640,559			5,881,114			7,942,339

Net Interest Income	$	3,869,272		$	4,278,725		$	11,404,059		$	13,170,464

Average Earning Assets	$	394,831,995		$	435,326,915		$	407,508,462		$	412,083,151
Net Interest Margin (1)	3.89		%	3.90		%	3.74		%	4.26		%

(1) Interim periods are presented on an annualized basis.

The Company experienced decreases in net interest income of approximately 10% and 13%, respectively, for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, compared to the same periods of the previous year. Average earning assets decreased approximately 9% and 1% between the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2008.

The net interest margin was 3.90% for third quarter of 2008, compared to 3.89% for the third quarter of 2009. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2009, net interest margin was 4.26% and 3.74%, respectively. The decline in net interest margin for the nine month periods is due to the cost of interest-bearing liabilities falling slower than the decrease in yields on earning assets. Between these two nine

Table of Contents

month periods, the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 88 basis points to 2.39% compared to 3.27% in 2008. However, yield on loans declined more rapidly, decreasing 105 basis points to 6.10% for the nine months of 2009, compared to 7.15% for the same period of 2008. The quarterly net interest margin shows improvement primarily as a result of the Bank’s continued ability to reduce its liability costs.

The Company’s net interest margin tends to expand in a rising interest rate environment and decline in a falling interest rate environment. The majority of earning assets are tied to market rates, such as the prime rate, and therefore rates on our earning assets generally reprice along with a movement in market rates while interest bearing liabilities, mainly deposits, typically reprice more slowly and usually incorporate only a portion of the movement in market rates. This asset sensitivity causes the Bank’s yields on assets to reprice faster than its cost of funds which causes improvements in the net interest margin to materialize more slowly. The decline in net interest margin from the same periods of the prior year can be attributed to many factors including a decrease in loan yields and the cumulative effects of changes in monetary policy. As of September 30, 2009, the target Federal Funds rate was 0.25% compared to 2.00% at September 30, 2008. This 175 basis point drop during a one year period continues to put pressure on the Company’s net interest margin.

On a sequential quarter basis, net interest margin increased from 3.66% at June 30, 2009 to 3.89% at September 30, 2009. Between the two periods, the Company’s yield on loans decreased from 6.13% to 5.91%, or 22 basis points. Due to a runoff in higher cost deposits, the cost of interest bearing deposits decreased from 2.45% to 2.15%, or 30 basis points between the second and third quarter of 2009, partially explaining the increase in net interest margin.

Interest rate sensitivity is closely monitored and managed; however, management anticipates continued volatility in the Company’s net interest margin due to changes in earning asset mix, the level of non-earning assets, including nonaccrual loans and OREO, changes in cost of funds, and changes in the level of interest rates, the direction of interest rates as determined by rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board and the possibility of losing the ability to participate in the CDARs program due to the Company’s current designation as an adequately capitalized institution.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income represents deposit account service charges, fees from the sale or brokering of loans, gains on sales of securities and other types of fee income.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company realized $524,754 in noninterest income compared to $431,757 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $92,997. The income for these two periods includes two extraordinary items; 1) the third quarter of 2008 includes $152,000 related to a non-recurring gain on early prepayment of $20.0 million in FHLB advances, and 2) the third quarter of 2009 includes $284,632 in recoveries on prior expenses. If these two non-recurring items are deducted from total noninterest income for these two periods, the difference is a decrease of $39,635. This decrease can partially be attributed to a significant reduction in total deposits between the two periods curtailing the analysis and NSF fees by $51,427 offset by a gain on sale of OREO of approximately $28,450.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company realized $1,212,132 in noninterest income compared to $990,198 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $221,934. However, the variance between these two periods includes non-recurring items including a gain on the sale of a debt obligation in Washington Mutual, Inc. for $228,750 during the first quarter of 2009 and $284,632 in recoveries on prior expenses during the third quarter of 2009. These non-recurring increases in noninterest income were offset by an increase of $152,000 in the third quarter of 2008 for a gain on early prepayment of $20.0 million in FHLB advances. If these items are deducted from total noninterest income for the two periods, the difference between these two nine periods is a decrease of $139,448 which can partially be attributed to a $82,007 decrease in analysis fees due to a significant reduction in total deposits and a $47,017 decrease in gains on sale of loans.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense represents salaries and benefits costs, occupancy and equipment expenses, professional expenses, outside services and other miscellaneous expenses necessary to conduct business.

Three month analysis

Total noninterest expenses were $4,805,221 for the third quarter of 2009, an increase of $339,570, or 8%, compared to the third quarter of the prior year. Below is a summary of significant operating expense variances between these two periods.

Increases in other operating expenses:

· $617,752 in losses on valuation of OREO;

· $289,356 in acquisition related expenses;

· $182,346 in FDIC insurance assessment charges related to a general increase in the level of FDIC insurance;

Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded no income tax benefit or expense compared to the income tax benefit of $14,700 for the same period of the prior year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company’s income tax benefit was $319,700 compared to income tax benefit of $881,800 for the same period of the prior year. As a result of the quarterly pre-tax losses in the second and third quarter of 2009, the Company increased the deferred tax asset valuation allowance by the amount of the deferred tax benefit that accrued; the Company decided not to increase its net deferred tax asset further while it was recognizing pre-tax losses.

Contractual Obligations

Our significant contractual obligations and significant commitments at December 31, 2008 are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Management believes that the Company’s present facilities are in good physical condition and are adequately covered by insurance. Certain of the leases contain options to extend the term of the lease. The Company is confident that, if necessary, it would be able to secure suitable alternative space on similar terms without having a substantial effect on operations.

The Company secured a tenant for sublease at its Solana Beach branch office for $4,500 per month. The sublease began May 1, 2009 and will end August 31, 2011. A portion of the La Jolla branch office is also being evaluated for sublease.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company, in its ordinary course of business, has commitments to disburse loan proceeds both under revolving and non-revolving arrangements. As of September 30, 2009, the total of these commitments approximated $70.2 million compared to $112.1 million as of December 31, 2008 and $118.6 million as of September 30, 2008. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. For discussion about the Company’s borrowing facilities see Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity Management and Cash Flows section above.

ITEM 3 — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk at the Company is primarily derived from the exposure to interest rate risk. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk and equity price risk, are not significant in the normal course of the Company’s operations.

Additional information regarding the Company’s market risk may be found in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk exposure during the first nine months of 2009.

ITEM 4T - Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act for the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective in all material respects, including those to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the

Table of Contents

Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company,

· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. No change occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 — Legal Proceedings

The Company is not a party to any material, pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary, routine litigation incidental to its business. However, the Company has been informed by the DFI that the DFI may issue the Bank an order under California Financial Code Section 1913. The Bank will have the option of either consenting to the issuance of the order or the DFI may commence a proceeding under California Financial Code Section 1912 to impose the order on the Bank. If issued, the violation of any provision of the order would be deemed to be the conducting of business by the Bank in an unsafe manner, and would subject the Bank to further regulatory enforcement action. Also, the FRB has requested that the Company enter into an agreement with the FRB to address the capital needs of the Company as well as other risk management and operational matters. The agreement with the FRB, if entered into, would be enforceable under Section 8 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended.

Item 1A — Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed on March 31, 2009, as amended and filed on April 29, 2009, the Company has the following additional risk factors.

There are potential risks associated with the termination of the proposed merger agreement with First Business Bank and FB Bancorp.

Our proposed merger with First Business Bank and FB Bancorp was terminated on October 28, 2009. Since the merger will not be consummated, there is a risk that our stock price may decline because certain costs related to the proposed merger, such as legal, accounting and a portion of financial advisory fees, must be paid even though the merger will not be completed. In addition, now that the merger has been terminated, our stock price may decline to the extent that the current market price reflects the assumption by investors that the merger will be completed.

Since the merger has been terminated, there may be uncertainty regarding the Company’s viability which may result in the loss of the employees and customers.

Our employees may experience uncertainty about the future viability of the Company, and their role going forward, since the termination of the merger agreement. This may adversely affect our ability to retain and attract key management and other personnel. Similarly, uncertainty may cause our customers to withdraw their business. Any loss of customers could have a material adverse affect on our business.

Recent changes in our senior management may cause uncertainty in, or be disruptive to, our business.

We have recently experienced changes in our senior management and our board of directors. On October 14, 2009, Mr. Richard H. Revier, our Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer, informed us of his resignation. On October 24, 2009, James G. Knight, MD, resigned from our board of directors. These changes in our senior management may be disruptive to our business, and, during the transition period, there may be uncertainty among investors, vendors, employees and others concerning our future direction and performance.
