BANKSHARES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2019
1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion
of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of American River Bankshares (the “Company”) at June
30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the results of its operations and statement of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, its cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and its statement
of changes in shareholders’ equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Certain disclosures
normally presented in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information not misleading. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 may not necessarily be indicative of the
operating results for the full year.
In preparing
such financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly
from those estimates.
Management has
determined that since all of the banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch office of American
River Bank, all branch offices are located within the same economic environment and management does not allocate resources based
on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it is appropriate to aggregate all of the branch offices and
report them as a single operating segment. No client accounts for more than ten percent (10%) of revenues for the Company or American
River Bank.
Adoption
of New Accounting Standard:
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “
Leases
”, utilizing
the effective date method under the modified retrospective approach.
The Company currently leases nine of its office leases
under operating leases. The Company’s present value of future lease payments as of January 1, 2019 was $3,570,000 which
was recorded as a right-of-use asset included in accrued interest receivable and other assets with an offsetting liability included
in accrued interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The effects of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 did
not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
2. STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION
Equity
Plans
On
March 17, 2010, the Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The 2010 Plan was
approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 20, 2010. At June 30, 2019 there were 29,958 stock options and 50,765 restricted
shares outstanding and the total number of authorized shares that remain available for issuance was 1,271,673. The 2010 Plan provides
for the following types of stock-based awards: incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights,
restricted stock, restricted performance stock, unrestricted Company stock, and performance units. Under the 2010 Plan, the awards
may be granted to employees and directors under incentive and nonqualified option agreements, restricted stock agreements, and
other awards agreements. The unvested restricted stock under the 2010 Plan have dividend and voting rights. The 2010 Plan requires
that the option price may not be less than the fair market value of the stock at the date the option is awarded. The option awards
expire on dates determined by the Board of Directors, but not later than ten years from the date of award. The vesting period
is generally five years; however, the vesting period can be modified at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.
Outstanding option awards are exercisable until their expiration. New shares are issued upon exercise of an option.
The
award date fair value of awards is determined by the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award and is recognized
ratably as compensation expense or director expense over the vesting periods. The shares of common stock awarded pursuant to such
agreements vest in increments over one to five years from the date of award. The shares awarded to employees and directors under
the restricted stock agreements vest on the applicable vesting dates only to the extent the recipient of the shares is then an
employee or a director of the Company or one of its subsidiaries, and each recipient will forfeit all of the shares that have
not vested on the date his or her employment or service is terminated.
Equity
Compensation
For the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the compensation cost recognized for equity compensation was $92,000 and $78,000, respectively.
The recognized tax benefit for equity compensation expense was $24,000 and $19,000, respectively, for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the compensation cost recognized for equity
compensation was $175,000 and $151,000, respectively. The recognized tax benefit for equity compensation expense was $45,000 and
$37,000, respectively, for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
At
June 30, 2019, the total unrecognized pre-tax compensation cost related to nonvested stock option awards was $9,000. This amount
will be recognized over the next 1.1 years and the weighted average period of recognizing these costs is expected to be 0.3 years.
At June 30, 2019, the total unrecognized pre-tax compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was $612,000. This amount
will be recognized over the next 4.9 years and the weighted average period of recognizing these costs is expected to be 1.2 years.

Equity Awards
There
were no stock appreciation rights, restricted performance stock, unrestricted Company stock, or performance units awarded during
the three-month or six-month month periods ended June 30, 2019 or 2018 or outstanding at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
The
intrinsic value used for stock options and restricted stock awards was derived from the market price of the Company’s common
stock of $12.26 as of June 30, 2019.
3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal
course of business there are outstanding various commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial statements,
including loan commitments of approximately $32,873,000 and standby letters of credit of approximately $300,000 at June 30, 2019
and loan commitments of approximately $34,276,000 and standby letters of credit of approximately $361,000 at December 31, 2018.
Such commitments relate primarily to real estate construction loans, revolving lines of credit and other commercial loans. However,
all such commitments will not necessarily culminate in actual extensions of credit by the Company during 2019 as some of these
are expected to expire without being fully drawn upon.
Standby letters
of credit are commitments issued to guarantee the performance or financial obligation of a client to a third party. These guarantees
are issued primarily relating to purchases of inventory, insurance programs, performance obligations to government agencies, or
as security for real estate rents by commercial clients and are typically short-term in nature. Credit risk is similar to that
involved in extending loan commitments to clients and accordingly, evaluation and collateral requirements similar to those for
loan commitments are used. The majority of all such commitments are collateralized. The fair value of the liability related to
these standby letters of credit, which represents the fees received for issuing the guarantees, was not significant at June 30,
2019 or December 31, 2018.
4. EARNINGS PER SHARE COMPUTATION
Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period (5,846,510
and 5,841,572 shares for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 5,843,340 and 5,919,321 shares for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018). Using the treasury stock method, diluted earnings per share reflect the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options or restricted
stock, result in the issuance of common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of stock based awards. There were 15,906 and 19,342,
respectively, dilutive shares for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 39,574 and 38,082, respectively,
dilutive shares for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018. For the three-month periods ended June 30,
2019 and 2018, there were zero stock options that were excluded from the calculation as they were considered antidilutive.
For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, there were zero stock options that were excluded from the calculation
as they were considered antidilutive. Earnings per share is retroactively adjusted for stock dividends and stock splits,
if applicable, for all periods presented.

There
were no held-to-maturity investment securities with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
At
June 30, 2019, the Company held 203 securities of which seven were in a loss position for less than twelve months and 57 were
in a loss position for twelve months or more. Of the seven securities in a loss position for less than twelve months, all
seven were U.S. Government Agencies and Sponsored Agencies securities and of the 57 securities that were in a loss position for
greater than twelve months, 55 were U.S. Government Agencies and Sponsored Agencies securities, one was an obligation of states
or political subdivisions and one was a corporate bond.
At
December 31, 2018, the Company held 220 securities of which 26 were in a loss position for less than twelve months and 97
were in a loss position for twelve months or more. Of the 97 securities in a loss position for greater than twelve
months at December 31, 2018, one was a corporate securities, five were municipal securities and 91 were U.S. Government
Agencies and Sponsored Agencies securities. The unrealized loss on the Company’s investment securities is
primarily driven by interest rates. Because the decline in market value is attributable to a change in interest rates
and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments until recovery of fair
value, which may be until maturity, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The
amortized cost and estimated fair values of investment securities at June 30, 2019 by contractual maturity are shown below
(dollars in thousands).

IMPAIRED AND NONPERFORMING LOANS AND LEASES AND OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED
At
June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the recorded investment in nonperforming loans and leases was zero and $27,000, respectively.
Nonperforming loans and leases include all such loans and leases that are either placed on nonaccrual status or are 90 days past
due as to principal or interest but still accrue interest because such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection.
The Company considers a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that it will be unable
to collect all amounts due (principal and interest) according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. At June
30, 2019, the recorded investment in loans and leases that were considered to be impaired totaled $7,857,000, all of which were
considered performing loans and leases. Of the total impaired loans and leases of $7,857,000, loans totaling $5,909,000 were deemed
to require no specific reserve and loans totaling $1,948,000 were deemed to require a related valuation allowance of $105,000.
At December 31, 2018, the recorded investment in loans and leases that were considered to be impaired totaled $8,702,000. Of the
total impaired loans of $8,702,000, loans totaling $5,968,000 were deemed to require no specific reserve and loans totaling $2,734,000
were deemed to require a related valuation allowance of $185,000.
At
June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the recorded investment in other real estate owned (“OREO”) was $957,000. During
the first and second quarters of 2019, the Company did not add any new, impair, or sell any of the OREO properties. The June 30,
2019 and December 31, 2018 OREO balance of $957,000 consisted of one commercial land property.

assets at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are summarized as follows:

9. LEASES
The
Company adopted ASU 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842),
on January 1, 2019, using the alternative transition method whereby
comparative periods were not restated. No cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings was required.
The Company also elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard,
which among other things allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classifications. Additionally, the Company
elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases.
The
Company leases nine locations for administrative offices and branch locations. All leases were classified as operating leases.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected to use the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases
on the consolidated balance sheet and instead account for them as executory contracts.
Certain
leases include options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term, typically for five years. Lease assets and
liabilities include related options that are reasonably certain of being exercised, however, in the case of those leases that
have renewal options, the Company is not including those additional lease terms as the rates are undeterminable and it has been
the Company’s historical practice to renegotiate lease terms upon expiration of the original lease terms. The depreciable
life of leased assets are limited by the expected lease term.
Adoption
of this standard resulted in the Company recognizing a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability of $3,570,000 on
January 1, 2019.
Supplemental
lease information at or for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is as follows:

10. BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS
At
June 30, 2019, the Company had $17,000,000 of unsecured short-term borrowing arrangements with two of its correspondent banks.
There were no advances under the borrowing arrangements as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
The
Company has a line of credit available with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the “FHLB”) which is secured
by pledged mortgage loans and investment securities. Borrowings may include overnight advances as well as loans with terms of
up to thirty years. Advances (both short-term and long-term) totaling $15,500,000 were outstanding from the FHLB at June 30, 2019,
bearing interest rates ranging from 1.31% to 3.17% and maturing between July 12, 2019 and November 24, 2023. Advances totaling
$15,500,000 were outstanding from the FHLB at December 31, 2018, bearing interest rates ranging from 1.18% to 3.17% and maturing
between April 30, 2019 and November 24, 2023. Remaining amounts available under the borrowing arrangement with the FHLB at June
30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 totaled $119,458,000 and $107,262,000, respectively. In addition, the Company has a secured borrowing
agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The borrowing can be secured by pledging selected loans and investment
securities. Borrowings generally are short-term including overnight advances as well as loans with terms up to ninety days. Amounts
available under this borrowing arrangement at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $9,528,000 and $8,340,000, respectively.
There were no advances outstanding under this borrowing arrangement as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
11. INCOME TAXES
The
Company files its income taxes on a consolidated basis with its subsidiaries. The allocation of income tax expense (benefit) represents
each entity’s proportionate share of the consolidated provision for (benefit from) income taxes.
The
Company accounts for income taxes using the balance sheet method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective
tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
On the consolidated balance sheet, net deferred tax assets are included in accrued interest receivable and other assets.
The
benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence,
management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution
of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured
as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable
taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described
above, if applicable, is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any
associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company recognizes accrued
interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if applicable, as a component of interest expense in the consolidated
statement of income. There have been no unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
12.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and
nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. They indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques
utilized by the Company to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices
(unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined
by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and
inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are
observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations
where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting
Standard Update 2016-01 “
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
” (“ASU
2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 requires the Company to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases,
the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based
on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance
of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset
or liability.
Estimated
fair values are disclosed for financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. These estimates are made
at a specific point in time based on relevant market data and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do
not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument
for sale at one time, nor do they attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business related to the instruments. In
addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair
value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the
Company’s financial instruments are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Because
no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments
regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These 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 fair values presented.
Assets and
liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis along with any related gain or loss recognized in the
income statement due to fair value changes are presented in the following table:

There were no
significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2 during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 or the twelve months
ended December 31, 2018.
The following
methods were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument above:
Available-for-sale
securities
–
Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, if available, and are considered
Level 1, or evaluated using pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information
and are considered Level 2. Pricing applications apply available information, as applicable, through processes such as benchmark
curves, benchmarking to like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing.
Impaired
loans
– The fair value of collateral dependent impaired loans adjusted for specific allocations of the allowance for
loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals and/or evaluations. These appraisals and/or evaluations may utilize
a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales, cost and the income approach. Adjustments
are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales
and income and other available data. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification
of the inputs for determining fair value. The valuation technique used for all Level 3 nonrecurring impaired loans is the sales
comparison approach less a reserve for past dues taxes and selling costs ranging from 8% to 10%.
Other
real estate owned
– Certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as OREO are measured at fair
value, less costs to sell. Fair values are based on recent real estate appraisals and/or evaluations. These appraisals and/or
evaluations may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales, cost and the income
approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between
the comparable sales and income and other available data. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level
3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. The valuation technique used for all Level 3 nonrecurring OREO is the
sales comparison approach less selling costs ranging from 8% to 10%.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “
Leases.
” Under the new guidance, lessees will be required
to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases): 1) a lease liability, which is the present
value of a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments, and 2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the
lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Lessor accounting under the new guidance
remains largely unchanged as it is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases,
and operating leases. Leveraged leases have been eliminated, although lessors can continue to account for existing leveraged leases
using the current accounting guidance. Other limited changes were made to align lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model
and the new revenue recognition standard
.
All entities will classify leases to determine how to recognize lease-related
revenue and expense. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures will be required by lessees and lessors to meet the objective of
enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The intention
is to require enough information to supplement the amounts recorded in the financial statements so that users can understand more
about the nature of an entity’s leasing activities. ASU No. 2016-02 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption was permitted. All entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach
for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements.
They have the option to use certain relief; full retrospective application is prohibited. Based on evaluation of the Company’s
current lease obligations, the Company has determined that the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 resulted in an increase in assets
to recognize the present value of the lease obligations with a corresponding increase in liabilities. The Company currently leases
nine of its office leases under operating leases. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. The Company’s
present value of future lease payments as of January 1, 2019 is $3,570,000, to be recorded as a right-of-use asset with an offsetting
liability. Other than the just noted increase in assets and liabilities the effects of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 did not
have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.
”
This
ASU significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that
aren’t measured at fair value through net income. In issuing the standard, the FASB is responding to criticism that today’s
guidance delays recognition of credit losses. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with
an “expected loss” model. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, will
apply to: (1) financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and (2) certain off-balance sheet credit
exposures. This includes, but is not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments, and financial guarantees.
The CECL model does not apply to available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities. For AFS debt securities with unrealized
losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to what they do today, except that the losses will be recognized
as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. As a result, entities will recognize improvements
to estimated credit losses immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time, as they do today. The ASU also simplifies
the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-13 also expands the disclosure requirements
regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan and lease losses. In addition,
entities will need to
disclose the amortized cost balance for each class of financial asset
by credit quality indicator, disaggregated by the year of origination.
ASU No. 2016-13 was initially scheduled to become
effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, however, o
n
July 17, 2019, the FASB issued a tentative decision with respect to the effective date of implementing ASU No. 2016-13. If the
FASB approves the tentative decision, ASU No. 2016-13 would become effective for smaller reporting companies, such as the Company,
for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022; early adoption would still be permitted for interim
and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect
adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (i.e., modified
retrospective approach). While the Company is currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 to determine the potential
impact the new standard will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, including if it will early adopt the standard,
it has taken steps to prepare for the implementation when it becomes effective, such as forming an internal task force, gathering
pertinent data, consulting with outside professionals, evaluating its current IT systems, and purchasing a software solution.
The Company has imported current and historical data into the new software and is currently validating the data and intends to
begin processing information, on a test basis, with the new CECL specific software during 2019 and to disclose any material potential
impact of this modeling once it becomes available.

2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following
is management’s discussion and analysis of the significant changes in American River Bankshares’ (the “Company”)
balance sheet accounts between December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019 and its income and expense accounts for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The discussion is designed to provide a better understanding of significant trends
related to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and interest rate sensitivity.

The factors
set forth under “Item 1A - Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2018, and other cautionary statements and information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be carefully
considered and understood as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, when evaluating the business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of performance. By their nature, they involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The future results
and shareholder values may differ significantly from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not
to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Any such statement speaks only as of the date of this report, and in the
case of any documents that may be incorporated by reference, as of the date of those documents. We do not undertake any obligation
to update or release any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report any new information, future event or other circumstances
after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. However, your attention
is directed to any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K.
Use of Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10Q”) contains certain non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial
measures in addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures include the taxable equivalent basis
used in the computation of the net interest margin and efficiency ratio. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial
measures in this Form 10Q because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company’s
financial position reflected in the current quarter and year-to-date results and facilitate comparison of our performance with
the performance of our peers.
Net Interest
Margin and Efficiency Ratio (non-GAAP financial measures)
In accordance with
industry standards, certain designated net interest income amounts are presented on a taxable equivalent basis, including the
calculation of net interest margin and the efficiency ratio. The Company believes the presentation of net interest margin
on a taxable equivalent basis using a 21% effective tax rate allows comparability of net interest margin with industry peers by
eliminating the effect of the differences in portfolios attributable to the proportion represented by both taxable and tax-exempt
loans and investments. The efficiency ratio is a measure of a banking company’s overhead as a percentage of its revenue.
The Company derives this ratio by dividing total noninterest expense by the sum of the taxable equivalent net interest income
and the total noninterest income.

Critical Accounting Policies
General
The Company’s
financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information
that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. We use historical loss
data and the economic environment as factors, among others, in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan and
lease portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the factors that we use. In addition, GAAP itself may change from
one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of
events that would impact our transactions could change.
Allowance
for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance
for loan and lease losses is an estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the Company’s credit portfolio that have been incurred
as of the balance-sheet date. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (1) “Accounting for Contingencies,”
which requires that losses be accrued when it is probable that a loss has occurred at the balance sheet date and such loss can
be reasonably estimated; and (2) the “Receivables” topic, which requires that losses be accrued on impaired loans
based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in
the secondary market and the loan balance.
The
allowance for loan and lease losses is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual risk, loss
events, or changes in other factors, occur. The analysis of the allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of
future losses and as a result could differ from the actual losses incurred in the future. If the allowance for loan and lease
losses falls below that deemed adequate (by reason of loan and lease growth, actual losses, the effect of changes in risk
factors, or some combination of these), the Company has a strategy for supplementing the allowance for loan and lease losses,
over the short-term. For further information regarding our allowance for loan and lease losses, see “Allowance for Loan
and Lease Losses Activity.”
Stock-Based
Compensation
The Company recognizes
compensation expense over the service period in an amount equal to the fair value of all share-based payments which consist of
stock options and restricted stock awarded to directors and employees. The fair value of each stock option award is estimated
on the date of grant and amortized over the service period using a Black-Scholes-Merton based option valuation model that requires
the use of assumptions. Critical assumptions that affect the estimated fair value of each award include expected stock price
volatility, dividend yields, option life and the risk-free interest rate. The fair value of each restricted award is estimated
on the date of award and amortized over the service period.
General
Development of Business
The Company
is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company was incorporated under
the laws of the State of California in 1995. As a bank holding company, the Company is authorized to engage in the activities
permitted under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and regulations thereunder.
Its principal office is located
at 3100 Zinfandel Drive, Suite 450, Rancho Cordova, California 95670 and its telephone number is (916) 854-0123. The Company employed
an equivalent of 104 full-time employees as of June 30, 2019.
The Company
owns 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of its banking subsidiary, American River Bank (the “Bank”),
and American River Financial, a California corporation which has been inactive since its incorporation in 2003.
American River
Bank was incorporated and commenced business in Fair Oaks, California, in 1983 and thereafter moved its headquarters to Sacramento,
California in 1985. American River Bank operates five full service offices in Sacramento and Placer Counties including the main
office located at 1545 River Park Drive, Suite 107, Sacramento and branch offices in Sacramento, Gold River, and Roseville; two
full service offices in Sonoma County in Healdsburg and Santa Rosa; and three full service offices in Amador County in Jackson,
Pioneer, and Ione.
In 2000,
the Company acquired North Coast Bank as a separate bank subsidiary. North Coast Bank was incorporated and commenced business
in 1990 as Windsor Oaks National Bank in Windsor, California. In 1997, the name was changed to North Coast Bank. Effective December
31, 2003, North Coast Bank was merged with and into American River Bank. On December 3, 2004, the Company acquired Bank of Amador
located in Jackson, California. Bank of Amador was merged with and into American River Bank.
The Bank’s
deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) up to applicable legal limits. American
River Bank does not offer trust services or international banking services and does not plan to do so in the near future. American
River Bank’s primary business is serving the commercial banking needs of small to mid-sized businesses within those counties
listed above. American River Bank accepts checking and savings deposits, offers money market deposit accounts and certificates
of deposit, makes secured and unsecured commercial, secured real estate, and other installment and term loans and offers other
customary banking services. American River Bank also conducts lease financing for certain types of business equipment. American
River Bank owns 100% of two inactive companies, ARBCO and American River Mortgage. ARBCO was formed in 1984 to conduct real estate
development and has been inactive since 1995. American River Mortgage has been inactive since its formation in 1994. During 2019
and 2018, the Company conducted no significant activities other than holding the shares of its subsidiaries. However, it is authorized,
with the prior approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), the
Company’s principal regulator, to engage in a variety of activities which are deemed closely related to the business of
banking. The common stock of the Company is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is listed and
traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “AMRB.”

Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and
Net Interest Margin
Net interest
income represents the excess of interest and fees earned on interest earning assets (loans and leases, securities, Federal funds
sold and investments in time deposits) over the interest paid on interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest margin
is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.57%
for the three months ended June 30, 2019, 3.36% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, 3.58% for the six months ended June
30, 2019 and 3.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The
total fully taxable equivalent interest income component for the second quarter of 2019 increased $775,000, or 14.0%, to $6,328,000
compared to $5,553,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in the fully taxable equivalent interest income
for the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 is broken down by rate (up $375,000) and volume (up $400,000).
The yield on earning assets increased from 3.60% during the second quarter of 2018 to 3.97% during the second quarter of 2019.
The primary driver in this rate increase was an increase in the yield on loans which increased from 4.79% in the second quarter
of 2018 to 4.88% in the second quarter of 2019 and an increase in yields on the investment portfolio which increased from 2.51%
in the second quarter of 2018 to 2.88% in the second quarter of 2019. The increased yield in 2019 compared to 2018 was due to
the overall higher interest rate environment. The volume increase of $400,000 was primarily from an increase in loans ($560,000),
partially offset by a decrease in investment balances ($83,000) and Fed fund balances ($98,000). Average loans balances increased
$47,257,000, (or 15.5%), from $304,732,000 during the second quarter of 2018 to $351,989,000 during the second quarter of 2019;
the average investment balances decreased $9,950,000, (or 3.4%), from $289,504,000 during the second quarter of 2018 to $279,554,000
during the second quarter of 2019; and average Fed fund balances decreased $22,209,000, (or 100.0%), from $22,209,000 during the
second quarter of 2018 to zero during the second quarter of 2019.
The
total fully taxable equivalent interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased $1,830,000, 17.1%, to $12,508,000
compared to $10,678,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The breakdown of the fully taxable equivalent interest income
for the six months ended June 30, 2019 over the same period in 2018 resulted from an increase in rate (up $1,082,000) and an increase
in volume (up $748,000). The primary driver in this rate increase was an increase in the yield on loans which increased from 4.69%
in 2018 to 4.91% in 2019 and an increase in yields on the investment portfolio which increased from 2.45% in 2018 to 2.90% in
2019. The increased yield in 2019 compared to 2018 was due to the overall higher interest rate environment. The increased yield
earned on the loans and investments was the reason the yield on earning assets increased from 3.56% in 2018 to 3.97% in 2019.
The volume increase of $748,000 was primarily from an increase in loans ($796,000) and investment balances ($59,000), partially
offset by a decrease in Fed fund balances ($145,000). Average loans balances increased $34,352,000, (or 11.2%), from $305,992,000
during the first six months of 2018 to $340,344,000 during the first six months of 2019; the average investment balances increased
$9,050,000, (or 3.2%), from $279,311,000 during the first six months of 2018 to $288,361,000 during the first six months of 2019;
and average Fed fund balances decreased $17,646,000, (or 98.1%), from $17,994,000 during the first six months of 2019 to $348,000
during the first six months of 2018.
Interest
expense was $270,000, or 71.4%, higher in the second quarter of 2019 versus the prior year period, increasing from $378,000 to
$648,000. The $270,000 increase in interest expense during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018 was
due to higher rates (up $224,000) and higher volume (up $46,000). The increase in interest expense can be attributed to an increase
in rates paid on deposit and borrowing balances during a higher interest rate environment. Rates paid on interest bearing liabilities
increased 28 basis points from 0.39% to 0.67% for the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2019. The largest
increase due to rates occurred in the time deposits. Some of these time deposits are indexed to the three- or six-month treasury
rates which have increased over the past twelve months. Interest expense on time deposits increased by $156,000, or 64.7%, from
$241,000 in the second quarter of 2018 to $397,000 in the second quarter of 2019 while the average time deposit balances increased
by $9,194,000, or (11.6%), from $79,204,000 in the second quarter of 2018 to $88,398,000 in the second quarter of 2019. Of the
increase in time deposits of $156,000, $128,000 was related to rate and $28,000 was related to volume.
Interest
expense was $524,000, or 74.1% higher, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 increasing from $707,000 in 2018 to $1,231,000
in 2019. The increase is related to rates (up $444,000), and volume (up $80,000). Rates paid on interest bearing liabilities increased
27 basis points from 0.37% to 0.64% for the first six months of 2018 compared to the first six months of 2019. Of the $444,000
increase in interest expense related to rates, $283,000 is related to higher rates paid on time deposit balances. Some of these
time deposits are indexed to the three- or six-month treasury rates which have increased over the past twelve months. Net interest
expense on time deposits increased by $332,000, or 73.3%, from $453,000 in 2018 to $785,000 in 2019 while the average time deposit
balances increased by $8,571,000, or 10.8%, from $79,447,000 in 2018 to $88,018,000 in 2019. Of the increase in time deposits
of $332,000, $283,000 was related to rate and $49,000 was related to volume.

Noninterest income
increased $41,000 (10.8%) to $421,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $380,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2018. The increase from the second quarter of 2018 to the second quarter of 2019 was primarily related to an increase
in gain on sale of securities, which increased $19,000 from a gain of $10,000 in 2018 to a gain of $29,000 in 2019 and an increase
in service charges on deposit accounts which increased $23,000 from $116,000 in 2018 to $139,000 in 2019.
For the six months
ended June 30, 2019, noninterest income increased $80,000 (10.6%) from $752,000 to $832,000. The increase from the first six months
of 2018 compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily related to an increase in gain on sale of securities (up $54,000 or
490.9%) resulting in income of $11,000 in the first half of 2018 compared to $65,000 for the first half of 2019 and an increase
in service charges on deposit accounts which increased $27,000 from $233,000 in 2018 to $260,000 in 2019.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest
expense increased $320,000 (8.4%) to $4,148,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $3,828,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2018. Salary and employee benefits expense increased $227,000 (9.0%) from $2,517,000 during the second quarter
of 2018 to $2,744,000 during the second quarter of 2019. The increase in salaries and benefits expense resulted from filling some
vacant positions, hiring additional relationship managers, replacing the Chief Credit Officer in May 2018, and normal cost of
living increases and promotions. Average full-time equivalent employees was 97 during the second quarter of 2018 compared to 103
during the second quarter of 2019. On a quarter-over-quarter basis, occupancy expense decreased $7,000 (2.7%) and furniture and
equipment expense increased $4,000 (2.9%). FDIC assessments decreased $8,000 (15.1%) from the second quarter of 2018 to the second
quarter of 2019. OREO related expenses increased $7,000 during the second quarter of 2018 to $4,000 from a credit of $3,000 in
the second quarter of 2018. The credit balance in 2018 relates to a refund of property taxes paid in prior years. Other expenses
increased $97,000 (11.2%) to $960,000 in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $863,000 in the second quarter of 2018. There
were numerous line items that make up the $97,000 increase in other expenses including advertising and business development (increased
$42,000), correspondent bank charges (increased $38,000), and professional fees (increased $29,000). Much of this increase in
advertising and business development is related to the expenses to sponsor community events and other promotional activities as
the Company is focusing more effort in our markets to strengthen our brand. The increase in correspondent bank charges relates
to lower average balances maintained by the Company in these accounts resulting in higher service charges and the interest earned
on these balances has increased due to the higher interest rate environment and beginning in 2019 is being considered as interest
income by the Company and classified as such and is reflected in the higher balances in the interest due from banks in the consolidated
statement of income. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2019 was 68.0% compared to 68.9%
in the second quarter of 2018.
Noninterest
expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 was $8,408,000 compared to $7,178,000 for the same period in 2018, an increase
of $1,230,000 (17.1%). Salaries and benefits expense increased $802,000 (17.0%) from $4,723,000 for the six months ended June
30, 2018 to $5,525,000 for the same period in 2019. The increase in salaries and benefits expense resulted from filling some vacant
positions, hiring additional relationship managers, replacing the Chief Credit Officer in May 2018, and normal cost of living
increases and promotions. Occupancy expense decreased $12,000, (2.3%), and furniture and equipment expense increased $6,000, (2.2%).
FDIC assessments decreased $11,000 (10.4%) from $106,000 in 2018 to $95,000 in 2019. OREO related expenses increased $6,000 (300.0%)
during 2019 to $8,000, from $2,000 in 2018. Other expenses increased $439,000 (28.3%) from $1,549,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2018 to $1,988,000 for the same period in 2019. There were numerous line items that make up the $439,000 increase in
other expenses including advertising and business development (increased $158,000), correspondent bank charges (increased $156,000),
director expenses (increased $31,000), and professional fees (increased $51,000).
The overhead
efficiency ratio (fully taxable equivalent), for the first six months of 2019 was 69.4% as compared to 66.9% in the same period
of 2018.
Provision for
Income Taxes
Federal
and state income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased $42,000 (10.4%) from $403,000 in the second quarter of 2018
to $445,000 in the second quarter of 2019 and increased $10,000 (1.2%), from $809,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to
$819,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The combined federal and state effective tax rate for the quarter ended June
30, 2019 was 25.9%, compared to 24.1% for the second quarter of 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the combined federal
and state effective tax rate was 25.3% compared to 23.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The higher effective tax rate
in 2019 compared to 2018 is related to the tax treatment of equity based compensation under Accounting Standards Update 2016-09
(“ASU 2016-09”). Under ASU 2016-09, if the market value of the Company’s stock price on the date restricted
stock vests is higher than the Company’s stock price on the date the restricted stock was awarded the Company receives a
tax credit for the difference in values and if the market price on the vesting date is lower than the stock price on the award
date the Company recognizes additional tax expense. In the second quarter of 2018 the Company recognized a $43,000 tax credit
under ASU 2016-09 and in the second quarter of 2019 the Company recognized a $14,000 tax expense under ASU 2016-09. For the six
months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized a $133,000 tax credit under ASU 2016-09 and in the six months ended June 30,
2019, the Company recognized a $28,000 tax credit under ASU 2016-09.
Balance Sheet
Analysis
The Company’s
total assets were $689,211,000 at June 30, 2019 compared to $688,092,000 at December 31, 2018, representing an increase of $1,119,000
(0.2%). Average assets for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $690,984,000, which represents an increase of $9,052,000
(1.3%) from the balance of $681,932,000 during the three-month period ended June 30, 2018. Average assets for the six months ended
June 30, 2019 were $688,586,000, which represents an increase of $5,431,000 (0.8%) from the average balance of $683,155,000 during
the six-month period ended June 30, 2018.
Federal
Funds
The
balance held in correspondent banks classified as Federal funds at June 30, 2019, was zero compared to $7,000,000 at December
31, 2018. The primary reason for the decrease in Federal funds since December 31, 2018 is directly related to the increase in
loan balances during the same period.
Investment
Securities
The
balance held in available-for-sale investment securities at June 30, 2019, was $264,763,000 compared to $294,933,000 at December

$264,000 compared to $292,000 at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $28,000 (9.6%). The primary reason for the decrease in investment
securities since December 31, 2018 is directly related to the increase in loan balances and a decrease in deposit balances during
the same period. Table Five below summarizes the values of the Company’s investment securities held on June 30, 2019 and

The
Company classifies its investment securities as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. The Company’s intent is to hold
all securities classified as held-to-maturity until maturity and management believes that it has the ability to do so. Securities
available-for-sale may be sold to implement asset/liability management strategies and in response to changes in interest rates,
prepayment rates and similar factors.
Net
unrealized losses on available-for-sale investment securities totaling $3,148,000 were recorded, net of $931,000 in tax liabilities,
as accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2019 and net unrealized losses on available-for-sale
investment securities totaling $2,664,000 were recorded, net of $788,000 in tax liabilities, as accumulated other comprehensive
loss within shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2018.
Management
periodically evaluates each investment security in a loss position for other than temporary impairment relying primarily on industry
analyst reports, observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations. Management has the ability and intent to hold
securities with established maturity dates until recovery of fair value, which may be until maturity, and believes it will be
able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms for all of the underlying investment securities; therefore,
management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
Loans and Leases
The Company’s
historical lending activities have been in the following principal areas: (1) commercial; (2) commercial real estate; (3) multi-family
real estate; (4) real estate construction (both commercial and residential); (5) residential real estate; (6) lease financing
receivable; (7) agriculture; and (8) consumer loans. The Company’s continuing focus in our market area, new borrowers developed
through the Company’s marketing efforts, and credit extensions expanded to existing borrowers resulted in the Company originating
$73.1 million in new loans during the first half of 2019. This production was partially offset by pay downs and payoffs, but resulted
in an overall increase in net loans and leases of $39,892,000 (12.5%) from December 31, 2018.
A significant
portion of the Company’s loans and leases are direct loans and leases made to individuals and local businesses. The Company
relies substantially on networking, local promotional activity, and personal contacts by American River Bank officers, directors
and employees to compete with other financial institutions. The Company makes loans and leases to borrowers whose applications
include a sound purpose and a viable primary repayment source, generally supported by a secondary source of repayment. Commercial
loans consist of credit lines for operating needs, loans for equipment purchases, working capital, and various other business
loan products. Consumer loans include a range of traditional consumer loan products such as personal lines of credit and homeowner
equity lines of credit and loans to finance purchases of autos (including classic and collectors autos), boats, recreational vehicles,
mobile homes and various other consumer items. Construction loans are generally comprised of commitments to customers within the
Company’s service area for construction of commercial properties, multi-family properties and custom and semi-custom single-family
residences. Other real estate loans consist primarily of loans secured by first trust deeds on commercial, multi-family, and residential
properties typically with maturities from 3 to 10 years and original loan-to-value ratios generally from 65% to 75%. Agriculture
loans consist primarily of first trust deed loans on properties that produce grapes, fruit, and nut loans. In general, except
in the case of loans under SBA programs or Farm Services Agency guarantees, the Company does not make long-term residential mortgage
loans.

Risk Elements
The Company assesses
and manages credit risk on an ongoing basis through a total credit culture that emphasizes excellent credit quality, extensive
internal monitoring and established formal lending policies. Additionally, the Company contracts with an outside loan review consultant
to periodically review the existing loan and lease portfolio. Management believes its ability to identify and assess risk and
return characteristics of the Company’s loan and lease portfolio is critical for profitability and growth. Management strives
to continue its emphasis on credit quality in the loan and lease approval process, through active credit administration and regular
monitoring. With this in mind, management has designed and implemented a comprehensive loan and lease review and grading system
that functions to continually assess the credit risk inherent in the loan and lease portfolio.
Ultimately,
underlying trends in economic and business cycles influence credit quality. American River Bank’s business is concentrated
in the Sacramento Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is a diversified economy, but with a large State of California government
presence and employment base; in Sonoma County, which is focused on businesses within the two communities in which the Bank has
offices (Santa Rosa and Healdsburg); and in Amador County, in which the Bank is primarily focused on businesses within the three
communities in which it has offices (Jackson, Pioneer, and Ione). The economy of Sonoma County is diversified with professional
services, manufacturing, agriculture and real estate investment and construction, while the economy of Amador County is reliant
upon government, services, retail trade, manufacturing industries and Indian gaming. The Company serviced markets in Santa Clara,
Contra Costa, and Alameda Counties through a loan production office. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company discontinued operating
the loan production office, however, the Company continues to service loans originated through these offices. The economies of
Santa Clara, Contra Costa and Alameda Counties are diversified with professional services, manufacturing, technology related companies,
real estate investment and construction.
The Company has
significant extensions of credit and commitments to extend credit that are secured by real estate. The ultimate repayment of these
loans is generally dependent on personal or business cash flows or the sale or refinancing of the real estate. The Company monitors
the effects of current and expected market conditions and other factors on the collectability of real estate loans. The more significant
factors management considers involve the following: lease rates and terms, vacancy rates, absorption and sale rates and capitalization
rates; real estate values, supply and demand factors, and rates of return; operating expenses; inflation and deflation; and sufficiency
of repayment sources independent of the real estate including, in some instances, personal guarantees.
In extending
credit and commitments to borrowers, the Company generally requires collateral and/or guarantees as security. The repayment of
such loans is expected to come from cash flows or from proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrowers. The Company’s
requirement for collateral and/or guarantees is determined on a case-by-case basis in connection with management’s evaluation
of the creditworthiness of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant
and equipment, income-producing properties, residences and other real property. The Company secures its collateral by perfecting
its security interest in business assets, obtaining deeds of trust, or outright possession among other means.
In management’s
judgment, a concentration exists in real estate loans, which represented approximately 83% of the Company’s loan and lease
portfolio at June 30, 2019 and 86% as of December 31, 2018. Management believes that the residential land and construction portion
of the Company’s loan portfolio carries a reasonable level of credit risk. As of June 30, 2019, outstanding unimproved
residential land and construction loans were $5,814,000 (or just 1.9% of the total real estate loans). Of the $5,814,000, $2,052,000
(35.3%) was represented by one amortizing loan, which was considered well-secured, with a favorable loan-to-value ratio.
Management currently believes that it maintains its allowance for loan and lease losses at levels adequate to reflect the loss
risk inherent in its total loan portfolio.
A decline in
the economy in general, or decline in real estate values in the Company’s market areas, in particular, could have an adverse impact
on the collectability of real estate loans and require an increase in the provision for loan and lease losses. This could adversely
affect the Company’s future prospects, results of operations, profitability and stock price. Management believes that its lending
practices and underwriting standards are structured with the intent to minimize losses; however, there is no assurance that losses
will not occur. The Company’s loan practices and underwriting standards include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) maintaining a thorough understanding of the Company’s market area and originating a significant majority of its loans
within that area, (2) maintaining a thorough understanding of borrowers’ knowledge, capacity, and market position in their field
of expertise, (3) basing real estate loan approvals not only on market demand for the project, but also on the borrowers’ capacity
to support the project financially in the event it does not perform to expectations (whether sale or income performance), and
(4) maintaining conforming and prudent loan-to-value and loan-to-cost ratios based on independent outside appraisals and ongoing
inspection and analysis by the Company’s lending officers or contracted third-party professionals.
Nonperforming,
Past Due and Restructured Loans and Leases
Management places
loans and leases on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due or if a loss is expected, unless the loan or lease is
well secured and in the process of collection. Loans and leases are partially or fully charged off when, in the opinion of management,
collection of such amount appears unlikely. The recorded investments in nonperforming loans and leases, which includes nonaccrual
loans and leases and loans and leases that were 90 days or more past due and on accrual, totaled zero and $27,000 at June 30,
2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The $27,000 in nonperforming loans and leases at December 31, 2018 was comprised of
one commercial loan relationship with two loans totaling $27,000, both of which were current to terms. Because these loans were
current and had shown a pattern of consistent, timely payments, the loans were upgraded to accrual status during the second quarter
of 2019.
There were no
loan or lease concentrations in excess of 10% of total loans and leases not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans and leases
as of June 30, 2019. Management is not aware of any potential problem loans, which were accruing and current at June 30, 2019,
where serious doubt exists as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the present repayment terms and that would result
in a significant loss to the Company apart from those loans identified in the Bank’s impairment analysis.

Impaired
Loans and Leases
The Company
considers a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that it will be unable to collect
all amounts due (principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan or lease agreement. The measurement
of impairment may be based on (i) the present value of the expected cash flows of the impaired loan or lease discounted at
the loan’s or lease’s original effective interest rate, (ii) the observable market price of the impaired loan
or lease, or (iii) the fair value of the collateral of a collateral-dependent loan. The Company does not apply this definition
to smaller-balance loans or leases that are collectively evaluated for credit risk. In assessing whether a loan or lease is impaired,
the Company typically reviews loans or leases graded substandard or lower with outstanding principal balances in excess of $100,000,
as well as loans considered troubled debt restructures with outstanding principal balances in excess of $25,000. The Company identifies
troubled debt restructures by reviewing each renewal, modification, or extension of a loan with a screening document. This
document is designed to identify any characteristics of such a loan that would qualify it as a troubled debt restructure.
If the characteristics are not present that would qualify a loan as a troubled debt restructure, it is deemed to be a modification.
At June 30, 2019,
the recorded investment in loans and leases that were considered to be impaired totaled $7,857,000, all of which are considered
performing loans and leases. Of the total impaired loans of $7,857,000, loans totaling $5,909,000 were deemed to require no specific
reserve and loans totaling $1,948,000 were deemed to require a related valuation allowance of $105,000. Of the $5,909,000 impaired
loans that did not carry a specific reserve there were $485,000 in loans or leases that had previous partial charge-offs and $5,424,000
in loans or leases that were analyzed and determined not to require a specific reserve or charge-off because the collateral value
or discounted cash flow value exceeded the loan or lease balance. The recorded investment in loans and leases that were considered
to be impaired totaled $8,702,000 at December 31, 2018. Of the total impaired loans of $8,702,000, loans totaling $5,968,000 were
deemed to require no specific reserve and loans totaling $2,734,000 were deemed to require a related valuation allowance of $185,000.
Prior
to 2013, the Company had been operating in a market that had experienced significant decreases in real estate values of commercial,
residential, land, and construction properties. As such, the Company is focused on monitoring collateral values for those loans
considered collateral dependent. For collateral dependent loans the Company performs an internal evaluation or obtains an updated
appraisal, as necessary. In the second quarter of 2019, the Company had net recoveries of $4,000 with $180,000 in provisions
for loan and lease losses. Despite the Company’s continued improvement in the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio,
due to the net growth in the loans outstanding during the second quarter of 2019, the $180,000 addition to the provision for loan
and lease losses was warranted. In the second quarter of 2018, the Company had net loan recoveries of $4,000 with no added provision.
During the quarters
ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, there were no loans that were modified as troubled debt restructurings. There were no payment
defaults on troubled debt restructurings within 12 months following the modification for the three-month and six-month periods
ended June 30, 2019.
There were no
payment defaults on troubled debt restructurings within 12 months following the modification for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 there were no unfunded commitments on those loans considered
troubled debt restructures.
Allowance
for Loan and Lease Losses Activity
The Company
maintains an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) to cover probable losses inherent in the loan and lease
portfolio, which is based upon management’s estimate of those losses. The ALLL is established through a provision for loan
and lease losses and is increased by provisions charged against current earnings and recoveries and reduced by charge-offs. Actual
losses for loans and leases can vary significantly from this estimate. The methodology and assumptions used to calculate the allowance
are continually reviewed as to their appropriateness given the most recent losses realized and other factors that influence the
estimation process. The model assumptions and resulting allowance level are adjusted accordingly as these factors change.
The adequacy
of the ALLL and the level of the related provision for loan and lease losses is determined based on management’s judgment
after consideration of numerous factors including, but not limited to: (i) local and regional economic conditions, (ii) the
financial condition of the borrowers, (iii) loan impairment and the related level of expected charge-offs, (iv) evaluation
of industry trends, (v) industry and other concentrations, (vi) loans and leases which are contractually current as
to payment terms but demonstrate a higher degree of risk as identified by management, (vii) continuing evaluations of the
performing loan portfolio, (viii) ongoing review and evaluation of problem loans identified as having loss potential, (ix) quarterly
review by the Board of Directors, and (x) assessments by banking regulators and other third parties. Management and the
Board of Directors evaluate the ALLL and determine its appropriate level considering objective and subjective measures, such as
knowledge of the borrower’s business, valuation of collateral, the determination of impaired loans or leases and exposure
to potential losses.
The ALLL
totaled $4,761,000 or 1.31% of total loans and leases at June 30, 2019 compared to $4,392,000 or 1.36% of total loans and leases
at December 31, 2018. The Company establishes general and specific reserves in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The ALLL is composed of categories of the loan and lease portfolio based on loan type
and loan rating; however, the entire allowance is available to cover actual loan and lease losses. While management uses available
information to recognize possible losses on loans and leases, future additions to the allowance may be necessary, based on changes
in economic conditions and other matters. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process,
periodically review the Company’s ALLL. Such agencies may require the Company to provide additions to the allowance based on their
judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.
The allowance
for loans and leases as a percentage of impaired loans and leases was 60.6% at June 30, 2019 and 50.5% at December 31, 2018. Of
the total non-performing and impaired loans and leases outstanding as of June 30, 2019, there were $807,000 in loans or leases
that had been reduced by partial charge-offs of $296,000.
The Company’s
policy with regard to loan or lease charge-offs continues to be that a loan or lease is charged off against the ALLL when management
believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. As previously discussed in the “Impaired Loans and Leases”
section, certain loans are evaluated for impairment. Generally, if a loan is collateralized by real estate, and considered collateral
dependent, the impaired portion will be charged off to the allowance for loan and lease losses unless it is in the process of
collection, in which case a specific reserve may be warranted. If the collateral is other than real estate and considered impaired,
a specific reserve may be warranted.
It is
the policy of management to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level believed to be adequate for known and
inherent risks in the portfolio. Our methodology incorporates a variety of risk considerations, both quantitative and qualitative,
in establishing an allowance for loan and lease losses that management believes is appropriate at each reporting date. Formula
allocations are calculated by applying historical loss factors to outstanding loans with similar characteristics. Historical
loss factors are based upon the Company’s loss experience. These historical loss factors are adjusted for changes in the
business cycle and for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, affect the collectability of the loan portfolio as
of the evaluation date. The discretionary allocation is based upon management’s evaluation of various loan segment
conditions that are not directly measured in the determination of the formula and specific allowances. The conditions may
include, but are not limited to, general economic and business conditions affecting the key lending areas of the Company, credit
quality trends, collateral values, loan volumes and concentrations, and other business conditions. Based on information currently
available, management believes that the allowance for loan and lease losses is prudent and adequate. However, no prediction of
the ultimate level of loans and leases charged off in future periods can be made with any certainty. Table Eight below summarizes,
for the periods indicated, the activity in the ALLL.

Other Real Estate
Owned
At June
30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had one other real estate owned (“OREO”) property totaling $957,000. During
the first and second quarters of 2019, the Company did not acquire or sell any OREO properties nor were there any impairment charges
to this property. There was no valuation allowance at June 30, 2019 nor at year-end 2018. The Company believes that the OREO property
owned at June 30, 2019 was carried approximately at fair value.
Other
Assets
Other
assets consists of bank owned life insurance, accrued interest receivable and other assets. There was no significant change in
the balance in bank owned life insurance at June 30, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018. Accrued interest receivable and other
assets increased from $6,908,000 at December 31, 2018 to $7,748,000 at June 30, 2019, an increase of $840,000 (12.2%). The increase
is due to a $2,954,000 increase in the lease right-of-use-asset related to the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January
1, 2019, offset by a $2,059,000 decrease in deferred tax assets primarily related to the increase in the unrealized gain on the
Company’s available-for-sale investment securities.
Deposits
At June
30, 2019, total deposits were $581,137,000 representing a $9,537,000 (1.6%) decrease from the December 31, 2018 balance of $590,674,000.
The Company’s deposit growth plan for 2019 is to concentrate its efforts on increasing noninterest-bearing demand, interest-bearing
money market and NOW accounts, and savings accounts while continuing to focus on maintaining an overall lower cost of funds than
our peer group while at the same time retaining our high-valued deposit relationships. The Company’s balances in noninterest-bearing
checking, interest-bearing checking, savings, and time, in total, remained relatively unchanged from December 31, 2018, however,
money market accounts decreased $9,591,000 (6.6%) due in part to one relationship transferring a portion of their deposit relationship
in the amount of $11,000,000 to another financial institution for investment purposes.

Capital
Resources
The Company and
American River Bank are subject to certain regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). Failure to meet these 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 current capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action, banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities
and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and American River Bank’s
capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings
and other factors.
At June 30, 2019,
shareholders’ equity was $80,919,000, representing an increase of $6,198,000 (8.3%) from $74,721,000 at December 31, 2018.
The increase results from net income for the period ($2,422,000), stock based compensation ($270,000), and the increase from other
comprehensive income ($4,093,000), exceeding the payment of cash dividends ($587,000).
Capital
ratios are reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that capital exceeds the prescribed regulatory requirements and is adequate to
meet future needs. Management believes that both the Company and American River Bank met all of their capital adequacy requirements
as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Table Ten below
lists the Company’s and American River Bank’s capital ratios at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 as well as the
minimum regulatory requirements.

Effective January
1, 2015, bank holding companies with consolidated assets of $1 Billion or more ($3 Billion or more effective August 30, 2018)
and banks like American River Bank must comply with new minimum capital ratio requirements to be phased-in between January 1,
2015 and January 1, 2019, which consist of the following: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk weighted assets
ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 capital to total risk weighted assets ratio of 6%; (iii) a total capital to total risk weighted assets
ratio of 8%; and (iv) a Tier 1 capital to adjusted average total assets (“leverage”) ratio of 4%.
In addition,
a “capital conservation buffer,” was established which is now fully phased-in and requires maintenance of a minimum
of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk weighted assets in excess of the regulatory minimum capital ratio requirements
described above. The 2.5% buffer increases the minimum capital ratios to (i) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii)
a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total capital ratio of 10.5%. The new buffer requirement was phased-in between January
1, 2016 and January 1, 2019. The buffer requirement for 2018 was 1.875% and became fully phased in on January 1, 2019, increasing
to 2.50%. If the capital ratio levels of a banking organization fall below the capital conservation buffer amount, the organization
will be subject to limitations on (i) the payment of dividends; (ii) discretionary bonus payments; (iii) discretionary payments
under Tier 1 instruments; and (iv) engaging in share repurchases.
On
January 24, 2018, the Company approved and authorized a 5% stock repurchase program for 2018 (the “2018 Program”).
See Part II, Item 2, for additional disclosure regarding the 2018 Program. In addition, on February 13, 2019 and May 15, 2019,
the Company paid cash dividends of $0.05 per common share to shareholders of record on January 30, 2019 and May 1, 2019, respectively.
These 2019 quarterly cash dividends follow four quarterly cash dividends, totaling $0.20 per share, paid in 2018.
Inflation
The impact
of inflation on a financial institution differs significantly from that exerted on manufacturing or other commercial concerns
primarily because its assets and liabilities are largely monetary. In general, inflation primarily affects the Company and its
subsidiaries through its effect on market rates of interest, which affects the Company’s ability to attract loan customers.
Inflation affects the growth of total assets by increasing the level of loan demand and potentially adversely affects capital
adequacy because loan growth in inflationary periods can increase at rates higher than the rate that capital grows through retention
of earnings which may be generated in the future. In addition to its effects on interest rates, inflation increases overall operating
expenses. Inflation has not had a significant effect upon the results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries during
the periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Liquidity
Liquidity
management refers to the Company’s ability to provide funds on an ongoing basis to meet fluctuations in deposit levels as
well as the credit needs and requirements of its clients. Both assets and liabilities contribute to the Company’s liquidity
position. Federal funds lines, short-term investments and securities, and loan and lease repayments contribute to liquidity, along
with deposit increases, while loan and lease funding and deposit withdrawals decrease liquidity. The Company assesses the likelihood
of projected funding requirements by reviewing historical funding patterns, current and forecasted economic conditions and individual
client funding needs. Commitments to fund loans and outstanding standby letters of credit at June 30, 2019 were approximately
$32,873,000 and $300,000, respectively. Such loan commitments relate primarily to revolving lines of credit and other commercial
loans and to real estate construction loans. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the
total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The Company’s
sources of liquidity consist of cash and due from correspondent banks, overnight funds sold to correspondent banks, unpledged
marketable investments and loans held for sale and/or pledged for secured borrowings. At June 30, 2019, consolidated liquid assets
totaled $148.5 million or 21.5% of total assets compared to $226.5 million or 32.9% of total assets on December 31, 2018. In addition
to liquid assets, the Company maintains two short-term unsecured lines of credit in the amount of $17,000,000 with two of its
correspondent banks. At June 30, 2019, the Company had $17,000,000 available under these credit lines. Additionally, the Bank
is a member of the FHLB. At June 30, 2019, the Bank could have arranged for up to $134,958,000 in secured borrowings from the
FHLB. These borrowings are secured by pledged mortgage loans and investment securities. At June 30, 2019, the Bank had advances,
borrowings and commitments (including letters of credit) outstanding of $15,500,000, leaving $119,458,000 available under these
FHLB secured borrowing arrangements. The Bank also has a secured borrowing arrangement with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
The borrowing can be secured by pledging selected loans and investment securities. At June 30, 2019, the Bank’s borrowing
capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank was $9,528,000. The Company serves primarily a business and professional customer base and,
as such, its deposit base is susceptible to economic fluctuations. Accordingly, management strives to maintain a balanced position
of liquid assets and borrowing capacity to offset the potential runoff of these volatile and/or cyclical deposits.
Liquidity is
also affected by portfolio maturities and the effect of interest rate fluctuations on the marketability of both assets and liabilities.
The Company can sell any of its unpledged securities held in the available-for-sale category to meet liquidity needs. Furthermore,
the Bank can pledge additional unencumbered securities to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the FHLB.
Off-Balance Sheet Items
The
Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business in order to meet the
financing needs of its customers and to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments consist
of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest
rate risk in excess of the amount recognized on the balance sheet.
The Company’s
exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit
is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company applies the same credit policies to commitments and
letters of credit as it does for loans included on the consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018,
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit were the only financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The
Company has not entered into any contracts for financial derivative instruments such as futures, swaps, options or similar instruments.
Loan commitments and standby letters of credit were $33,173,000 and $34,637,000 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
As a percentage of net loans and leases these off-balance sheet items represent 9.3% and 10.9%, respectively. See also, Note 3
to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information about the Company’s off-balance
sheet items.
The Company
has certain ongoing commitments under operating leases. These commitments do not significantly impact operating results.
