Basic earnings per common share data is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Common shares outstanding include common stock and restricted stock awards where recipients have satisfied the vesting terms. Diluted earnings per common share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and the if-converted method for convertible trust preferred securities.

The following table presents a summary of per common share data and amounts for the periods indicated.

At June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer in an amount greater than 10% of shareholders’ equity, other than the U.S. Government agencies and sponsored enterprises. The agency mortgage-backed securities are all issued by U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises. Available for sale securities having a fair value of $256.1 million and $315.8 million at June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure deposits of public institutions and for other purposes as required by law or contract provisions.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2015 , by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. The weighted average life of the mortgage-backed securities is approximately 5 years.

The unrealized losses at both June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , were primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates since the securities were purchased. Management systematically evaluates investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value on a quarterly basis. This analysis requires management to consider various factors, which include among other considerations (1) the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected compared to the amortized cost of the security, (2) duration and magnitude of the decline in value, (3) the financial condition of the issuer or issuers, (4) structure of the security, and (5) the intent to sell the security or whether it is more likely than not the Company would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in market value. At June 30, 2015 , management performed its quarterly analysis of all securities with an unrealized loss and concluded no individual securities were other-than-temporarily impaired.

The gross gains and gross losses realized from sales of available for sale investment securities were as follows:

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt, such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, and current economic factors among other factors. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:


•	Grades 1 , 2 , and 3 – Includes loans to borrowers with a continuous record of strong earnings, sound balance sheet condition and capitalization, ample liquidity with solid cash flow, and whose management team has experience and depth within their industry.


•	Grade 4 – Includes loans to borrowers with positive trends in profitability, satisfactory capitalization and balance sheet condition, and sufficient liquidity and cash flow.


•	Grade 5 – Includes loans to borrowers that may display fluctuating trends in sales, profitability, capitalization, liquidity, and cash flow.


•	Grade 6 – Includes loans to borrowers where an adverse change or perceived weakness has occurred, but may be correctable in the near future. Alternatively, this rating category may also include circumstances where the borrower is starting to reverse a negative trend or condition, or has recently been upgraded from a 7 , 8 , or 9 rating.


•	Grade 7 – Watch credits are borrowers that have experienced financial setback of a nature that is not determined to be severe or influence ‘ongoing concern’ expectations. Although possible, no loss is anticipated, due to strong collateral and/or guarantor support.


•	Grade 8 – Substandard credits will include those borrowers characterized by significant losses and sustained downward trends in balance sheet condition, liquidity, and cash flow. Repayment reliance may have shifted to secondary sources. Collateral exposure may exist and additional reserves may be warranted.


•	Grade 9 – Doubtful credits include borrowers that may show deteriorating trends that are unlikely to be corrected. Collateral values may appear insufficient for full recovery, therefore requiring a partial charge-off, or debt renegotiation with the borrower. The borrower may have declared bankruptcy or bankruptcy is likely in the near term. All doubtful rated credits will be on non-accrual.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company issues financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal course of the business of meeting the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s extent of involvement and maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments.

The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for financial instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2015 , there were $1.6 million of unadvanced commitments on impaired loans.

The contractual amounts of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , are as follows:



(in thousands)	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Commitments to extend credit	$	1,027,745	$	947,424
Standby letters of credit	52,657		50,108

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments usually have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, may have significant usage restrictions, and may require payment of a fee. Of the total commitments to extend credit at June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , approximately $87.9 million and $65.9 million , respectively, represent fixed rate loan commitments. Since certain of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon or may be revoked, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, premises and equipment, and real estate. Other liabilities include approximately $0.2 million for estimated losses attributable to the unadvanced commitments at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 .

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters of credit are issued to support contractual obligations of the Company’s customers. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as the risk involved in extending loans to customers. The approximate remaining term of standby letters of credit range from 1 month to 2.8 years at June 30, 2015 .

Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to various legal proceedings arising out of their businesses. Management believes there are no such proceedings pending or threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse effect on the business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Client-Related Derivative Instruments. The Company enters into interest rate swaps to allow customers to hedge changes in fair value of certain loans. The table below summarizes the notional amounts and fair values of the client-related derivative instruments:



					Asset Derivatives (Other Assets)				Liability Derivatives (Other Liabilities)
	Notional Amount				Fair Value				Fair Value
(in thousands)	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Non-designated hedging instruments
Interest rate swap contracts	$	148,878	$	141,263	$	1,166	$	907	$	1,166	$	907

Changes in the fair value of client-related derivative instruments are recognized currently in operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , the gains and losses offset each other due to the Company's hedging of the client swaps with other bank counterparties.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Below is a description of certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

The following table summarizes financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Securities available for sale . Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. Fair values for Level 2 securities are based upon dealer quotes, market spreads, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond's terms and conditions at the security level. At June 30, 2015 , Level 3 securities available for sale consist primarily of three Auction Rate Securities that are valued based on the securities' estimated cash flows, yields of comparable securities, and live trading levels.


•	Portfolio Loans. Certain fixed rate portfolio loans are accounted for as trading instruments and reported at fair value. Fair value on these loans is determined using a third party valuation model with observable Level 2 market data inputs.


•	State tax credits held for sale. At June 30, 2015 , of the $42.1 million of state tax credits held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, approximately $10.0 million were carried at fair value. The remaining $32.1 million of state tax credits were accounted for at cost.

The Company is not aware of an active market that exists for the 10 -year streams of state tax credit financial instruments. However, the Company’s principal market for these tax credits consists of Missouri state residents who buy these credits and local and regional accounting firms who broker them. As such, the Company employed a discounted cash flow analysis (income approach) to determine the fair value.

The fair value measurement is calculated using an internal valuation model with market data including discounted cash flows based upon the terms and conditions of the tax credits. If the underlying project remains in compliance with the various federal and state rules governing the tax credit program, each project will generate about 10 years of tax credits. The inputs to the discounted cash flow calculation include: the amount of tax credits generated each year, the anticipated sale price of the tax credit, the timing of the sale and a discount rate. The discount rate is estimated using the LIBOR swap curve at a point equal to the remaining life in years of credits plus a 205 basis point spread. With the exception of the discount rate, the other inputs to the fair value calculation are observable and readily available. The discount rate is considered a Level 3 input because it is an “unobservable input” and is based on the Company’s assumptions. An increase in the discount rate utilized would generally result in a lower estimated fair value of the tax credits. Alternatively, a decrease in the discount rate utilized would generally result in a higher estimated fair value of the tax credits. Given the significance of this input to the fair value calculation, the state tax credit assets are reported as Level 3 assets.

•

Derivatives . Derivatives are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The Company obtains counterparty quotations to value its interest rate swaps and caps. In addition, the Company validates the counterparty quotations with third party valuation sources. Derivatives with negative fair values are included in Other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Derivatives with positive fair value are included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

(1) The amounts represent only balances measured at fair value during the period and still held as of the reporting date.

Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral. Fair values for impaired loans are obtained from current appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers or independent valuation specialists. Other real estate owned is adjusted to fair value upon foreclosure of the underlying loan. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value of other real estate is based upon the current appraised values of the properties as determined by qualified licensed appraisers and the Company’s judgment of other relevant market conditions. Certain state tax credits are reported at cost.

Following is a summary of the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 .

NOTE 9 - NEW AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

FASB ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the new guidance, an entity will (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the contract’s performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016 for public companies. Early adoption is not permitted. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified approach to adopt ASU 2014-09. In April 2015, the FASB tentatively decided to extend the adoption date to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. The FASB announced they intend to expose this tentative decision for a 30-day comment period under a

proposed ASU during the second quarter of 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and has not determined the impact this standard may have on its financial statements nor decided upon the method of adoption.

FASB ASU 2014-11, "Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures" In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, "Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures." The objective of ASU 2014-11 is to amend the accounting for certain secured financing transactions, and requires enhanced disclosures with respect to transactions recognized as sales in which exposure to the derecognized asset is retained through a separate agreement with the counterparty. In addition, the guidance requires enhanced disclosures with respect to the types and quality of financial assets pledged in secured financing transactions. The guidance became effective in the first quarter of 2015, except for the disclosures regarding the types and quality of financial assets pledged, which became effective in the second quarter of 2015. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated balance sheets or statements of operations.

FASB ASU 2015-03, "Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): FASB Accounting Standards Codification-Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs" In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): FASB Accounting Standards Codification-Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The objective is to reduce cost and complexity in accounting standards while maintaining the usefulness of information being provided to users of financial statements. The guidance becomes effective in the first quarter of 2016 and requires the Company to apply the new guidance on a retrospective basis upon adoption, but early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this guidance on its consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations.

(1) A non-GAAP measure. A reconciliation has been included in this MD&A section under the caption "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company noted the following trends:

•

The Company reported net income of $18.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to $13.0 million for the same period in 2014. The increase in net income over the prior year was primarily due to an increase in reversal of provision for PCI loan loss, an increase in noninterest income, and a decrease in noninterest expenses from lower legal expense on problem loans and expense management.

•

On a core basis ¹ , net income was $14.8 million , or $0.74 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to $11.9 million , or $0.60 per share in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increases in earning asset balances, driving growth in core net interest income, combined with a reduction in noninterest expenses and increases in noninterest income from service charges on deposits and other fee income.


•	Net interest income for the first six months of 2015 decreased $0.8 million from the prior year period due to a decline in accelerations from PCI loans. On a core basis ¹ , net interest income increased 8% when compared to the prior year period due to strong portfolio loan growth and improvements in funding costs during 2014 and 2015.


•	The Core net interest margin ¹ , defined as Net interest margin (fully tax equivalent), including contractual interest on PCI loans, but excluding the incremental accretion on these loans, increased 4 basis points from the prior year period primarily due to the managed reductions in funding costs combined with an improved earning asset mix.


•	Core noninterest income ¹ , which primarily includes the Company's wealth management revenue, service charges and other fees on deposit accounts, sales of other real estate, and state tax brokerage activity, increased 3% compared to the prior year period primarily due to an increase in Service charges on deposit accounts and other fees.


•	Noninterest expense declined 5% and the Company's efficiency ratio improved to 58.2% from 62.5% when compared to the prior year. Core noninterest expenses ¹ declined 4% when compared to the prior year, and the Core efficiency ratio ¹ improved to 59.12% from 66.32% when compared to the prior year period.

Other highlights:


•	The Company's Board approved an increase in the Company’s quarterly cash dividend to $0.07 per common share for the third quarter of 2015 from $0.06, payable on September 30, 2015 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 15, 2015.


•	The Company received a $65 million allocation of New Markets Tax Credits ("NMTC"), which is the fourth allocation of NMTC received in the past five years, for a total of $183 million.

•

The Company's Board also authorized the repurchase of up to 2 million common shares, representing approximately 10% of the Company’s currently outstanding shares. Shares may be bought back in open market or privately negotiated transactions over an indeterminate time period based on market and business conditions. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company did not repurchase any shares pursuant to this publicly announced program.

Balance sheet highlights:

•

Loans – Loans totaled $2.6 billion at June 30, 2015 , including $87.6 million of purchase credit impaired ("PCI") loans. Portfolio loans excluding PCI loans increased $291.5 million , or 13% , from June 30, 2014 . Commercial and industrial loans increased $199.9 million , or 18% , Consumer and other loans increased $32.5 million , or 66% , Construction loans and Residential real estate loans increased $25.3 million , or 8% , and Commercial real estate increased $33.7 million . See Item 1, Note 4 – Portfolio Loans for more information.


•	Deposits – Total deposits at June 30, 2015 were $2.7 billion , an increase of $226.1 million , or 9% , from June 30, 2014 , partially due to enhanced deposit gathering efforts in both commercial and business banking.


•	Asset quality – Nonperforming loans, including troubled debt restructurings, were $17.5 million at June 30, 2015 , compared to $19.3 million at June 30, 2014 . Nonperforming loans represented 0.69% of portfolio loans at June 30, 2015 versus 0.86% at June 30, 2014 . There were no portfolio loans that were over 90 days delinquent and still accruing at June 30, 2015 or June 30, 2014 .

Provision for portfolio loan losses was an expense of $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to expense of $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . See Item 1, Note 4 – Portfolio Loans and, Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses in this section for more information.

(1)	Change in volume multiplied by yield/rate of prior period.


(2)	Change in yield/rate multiplied by volume of prior period.


(3)	Nontaxable income is presented on a fully-tax equivalent basis using the combined statutory federal and state income tax rate in effect for each year.

NOTE: The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each.

Net interest income (on a tax equivalent basis) was $29.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to $29.1 million for the same period of 2014 , an increase of $0.6 million , or 2% . Total interest income increased $0.1 million and total interest expense decreased $0.5 million . The tax-equivalent net interest rate margin was 3.85% for the second quarter of 2015 , compared to 3.92% for the first quarter of 2015 , and 4.03% in the second quarter of 2014 .

Net interest income (on a tax equivalent basis) was $59.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to $59.9 million for the same period of 2014 , a decrease of $0.8 million , or 1% . Total interest income decreased $1.8 million and total interest expense decreased $1.0 million . The tax-equivalent net interest rate margin was 3.88% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to 4.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 .

Interest rates remain at historically low levels and continue to negatively impact loan yields leading to lower net interest margins. As seen in the table above, during the six months ended June 30, 2015 , changes in interest rates have led to a $1.4 million , and $2.3 million reduction in interest income in our portfolio and PCI loans, respectively.

Additionally, the run-off of higher yielding PCI loans continue to negatively impact net interest margin leading to a $3.6 million decrease in interest income due to volume. To partially mitigate lower yields on loans, the Company managed deposit costs lower and decreased other borrowing costs including the prepayment of $50.0 million of FHLB borrowings in December 2014.

Core net interest margin ¹ was 3.46% for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 , compared to 3.41% for the same prior year period. Core net interest margin ¹ increased 5 basis points from the prior year quarter primarily due to the managed reductions in funding costs combined with an improved earning asset mix. These factors mitigated continued pressure in portfolio loan yields and reductions in PCI loan balances as those balances continue to run-off. Pressure on loan yields and continued reductions in PCI loan balances could lead to a modest decline in core net interest margin in the second half of 2015.

Noninterest income increased $2.1 million , or 28% in the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014. Core noninterest income ¹ grew 3% in the first six months of 2015 due to an allocation fee from a tax credit project, increases in fees earned from recoveries, gain on sales of mortgages, and swap fee income. Wealth management revenues increased by 2% in the first six months of 2015 when compared to the prior year period due to an increase in Trust assets under administration.

(1) A non-GAAP measure. A reconciliation has been included in this MD&A section under the caption "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Noninterest expenses were $39.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to $41.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Core noninterest expenses ¹ , which exclude certain items and expenses directly related to PCI loans and assets covered under loss share agreements decreased to $38.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , from $39.9 million for the prior year period.

The Company's Core efficiency ratio ¹ was 59.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to 66.3% for the prior year, and reflects lower legal expenses on problem loans, overall expense management and revenue growth trends. Core efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure. The attached tables contain a reconciliation of Core efficiency ratio.

The Company anticipates total noninterest expenses to be between $19 million and $21 million per quarter for 2015.

Income Taxes

The Company's income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , which includes both federal and state taxes, was $4.8 million and $9.8 million , respectively, compared to $3.7 million and $6.7 million for the same periods of 2014 . The combined federal and state effective income tax rates were 35.3% and 33.9% for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 , and 2014 , respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to higher net income in 2015 lessening the impact of permanent nontaxable items.

Assets

Loans by Type

The Company grants commercial, residential, and consumer loans primarily in the St. Louis, Kansas City and Phoenix metropolitan areas. The Company has a diversified loan portfolio, with no particular concentration of credit in any one economic sector; however, a substantial portion of the portfolio is secured by real estate. The ability of the Company's borrowers to honor their contractual obligations is partially dependent upon the local economy and its effect on the real estate market. The following table summarizes the composition of the Company's loan portfolio:



(in thousands)	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		Increase (decrease)
Commercial and industrial	$	1,335,008	$	1,270,259	$	64,749		5.1	%

Total loans	$	2,630,199	$	2,533,019	$	97,180		3.8	%

Portfolio loans grew by $109 million to $2.5 billion at June 30, 2015 when compared to December 31, 2014. PCI loans totaled $87.6 million at June 30, 2015 , a decrease of $11.5 million , or 11.6% , from December 31, 2014 , primarily as a result of principal paydowns and accelerated loan payoffs.

The following table illustrates loan growth from selected specialized market segments:



(in thousands)	June 30, 2015	December 31, 2014	Change	% Change
Enterprise value lending	251,018	202,468	48,550	24.0	%
Life insurance premium financing	239,182	220,909	18,273	8.3	%

These specialized market segments are primarily C&I loans and have contributed significantly to the Company's loan growth in the first six months of 2015. These loans are sourced through relationships developed with private equity funds and estate planning, and are not bound geographically by our traditional three markets.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

Allowance for loan losses to total loans	1.25			1.26			1.25			1.26

The provision for loan losses on portfolio loans for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $3.7 million compared to $2.4 million for the comparable 2014 period. The provision for loan losses for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 was primarily to provide for strong loan growth and to provide for changes in charge-off trends.

For PCI loans, the Company remeasures contractual and expected cash flows periodically. When the remeasurement process results in a decrease in expected cash flows, typically due to an increase in expected credit losses, impairment is recorded through provision for loan losses. Similarly, when expected credit losses decrease in the remeasurement process, prior recorded impairment is reversed before the yield is increased prospectively. There was $3.3 million of provision reversal for loan losses on PCI loans for the six months ended June 30, 2015 , compared to provision of $2.8 million for the comparable 2014 period.

The allowance for loan losses on portfolio loans was 1.25% of total loans at June 30, 2015 compared to 1.26% at June 30, 2014 . Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio and coverage trends reflect steady improvements in credit quality measures and classified loan levels. The reduction in the ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans over the prior year period is due to continued strong credit performance, as well as continued improvement in our loss migration results.

Sales	(3,701		)	(7,566		)
Other real estate end of period	$	9,842		$	20,434

The writedowns in fair value were recorded in Loan legal and other real estate expense based on current market activity shown in the appraisals. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company realized a negligible net gain on the sale of other real estate and recorded these gains as part of Noninterest income.

Liabilities

Liabilities totaled $3.0 billion at June 30, 2015 , consistent with balances at December 31, 2014 . Liabilities remained relatively stable due to a $200 million increase in total deposits, offset by a decrease of $71 million in short-term Federal Home Loan Bank advances and a decrease of $51 million in other borrowings.

Total deposits at June 30, 2015 were $2.7 billion , an increase of $200 million , or 8.0% , from December 31, 2014 . The increase in deposits within our money market accounts reflects initiatives to enhance overall deposit levels as well as to improve our funding mix. The composition of our noninterest bearing deposits remained relatively stable at 24% of total deposits at June 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 . Growth in balances and the change in composition modestly improved deposit costs during the second quarter when compared to the linked first quarter at 0.39% , as compared to 0.40% , and improved from the 0.43% for the prior year period.

Shareholders' Equity

Shareholders' equity totaled $332 million at June 30, 2015 , an increase of $16.2 million from December 31, 2014 . Significant activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015 :


•	Net income of $18.1 million ,


•	Other comprehensive losses of $0.4 million from the change in unrealized gains on investment securities,


•	Dividends paid on common stock of $2.3 million .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure we have the ability to generate sufficient cash or cash equivalents in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet our commitments as they become due. Typical demands on liquidity are run-off from demand deposits, maturing time deposits which are not renewed, and fundings under credit commitments to customers. Funds are available from a number of sources, such as from the core deposit base and from loans and securities repayments and maturities.

Additionally, liquidity is provided from sales of the securities portfolio, fed fund lines with correspondent banks, the Federal Reserve and the FHLB, the ability to acquire large and brokered deposits, and the ability to sell loan participations to other banks. These alternatives are an important part of our liquidity plan and provide flexibility and efficient execution of the asset-liability management strategy.

The Bank's Asset-Liability Management Committee oversees our liquidity position, the parameters of which are approved by the Bank's Board of Directors. Our liquidity position is monitored monthly by producing a liquidity report, which measures the amount of liquid versus non-liquid assets and liabilities. Our liquidity management framework includes measurement of several key elements, such as the loan to deposit ratio, a liquidity ratio, and a dependency ratio. The Company's liquidity framework also incorporates contingency planning to assess the nature and volatility of funding sources and to determine alternatives to these sources. While core deposits and loan and investment repayments are principal sources of liquidity, funding diversification is another key element of liquidity management and is achieved by strategically varying depositor types, terms, funding markets, and instruments.

Parent Company liquidity

The parent company's liquidity is managed to provide the funds necessary to pay dividends to shareholders, service debt, invest in subsidiaries as necessary, and satisfy other operating requirements. The parent company's primary funding sources to meet its liquidity requirements are dividends and payments from the Bank and proceeds from the issuance of equity (i.e. stock option exercises, stock offerings). Another source of funding for the parent company includes the issuance of subordinated debentures and other debt instruments. Management believes our current level of cash at the holding company of $10.8 million will be sufficient to meet all projected cash needs for the remainder of 2015.

As of June 30, 2015 , the Company had $56.8 million of outstanding subordinated debentures as part of eight Trust Preferred Securities Pools. These securities are classified as debt but are included in regulatory capital and the related interest expense is tax-deductible, which makes them an attractive source of funding.

Bank liquidity

The Bank has a variety of funding sources available to increase financial flexibility. In addition to amounts currently borrowed, at June 30, 2015 , the Bank could borrow an additional $271.7 million from the FHLB of Des Moines under blanket loan pledges and has an additional $707.6 million available from the Federal Reserve Bank under a pledged loan agreement. The Bank has unsecured federal funds lines with four correspondent banks totaling $45.0 million . On December 30, 2013, the Company prepaid $30.0 million of debt with the Federal Home Loan Bank with a weighted average interest rate of 4.09% and a maturity of 3 years and incurred a prepayment penalty of $2.6 million. On December 23, 2014, the Company prepaid an additional $50.0 million of debt with the Federal Home Loan Bank with a weighted average interest rate of 3.17%, a maturity of 3 years and incurred a prepayment penalty of $2.9 million. These transactions have reduced our cost of interest bearing liabilities and continue to help mitigate net interest margin compression.

Investment securities are another important tool to the Bank's liquidity objectives. Of the $404.9 million of the securities available for sale at June 30, 2015 , $256.1 million was pledged as collateral for deposits of public institutions, treasury, loan notes, and other requirements. The remaining $148.8 million could be pledged or sold to enhance liquidity, if necessary.

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into certain forms of off-balance sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through the Bank's various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet transactions in its evaluation of the Company's liquidity. The Bank has $1,080.4 million in unused commitments as of June 30, 2015 . While this commitment level would exhaust the majority the Company's current liquidity resources, the nature of these commitments is such that the likelihood of funding them in the aggregate at any one time is low.

Capital Resources

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and its

bank affiliate must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The banking affiliate’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total, Tier 1, and Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. To be categorized as “well capitalized”, banks must maintain minimum total risk-based (10%), Tier 1 risk-based (8%), Common equity tier 1 risk-based (6.5%), and Tier 1 leverage ratios (5%). As of June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The Bank continues to exceed regulatory standards and met the definition of “well-capitalized” (the highest category) at June 30, 2015 . Beginning with reporting for the first quarter of 2015, the Company adopted the Regulatory Capital Framework (Basel III). The Company has implemented the necessary processes and procedures to comply with Basel III.

The following table summarizes the Company's various capital ratios at the dates indicated:



(in thousands)	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
Total capital to risk-weighted assets	12.68		%	13.40		%
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets	11.43		%	12.14		%
Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ¹	9.66		%	10.15		%
Leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average assets)	10.83		%	10.48		%
Tangible common equity to tangible assets ²	8.94		%	8.69		%
Tier 1 capital	$	355,118		$	335,220
Total risk-based capital	394,000			369,867

¹ Not an applicable regulatory ratio until the quarter ended March 31, 2015
² Not a required regulatory capital ratio

The decline in regulatory ratios at June 30, 2015 represents the impact of an increase in risk weighted assets under the Basel III guidelines. The Company believes the tangible common equity ratio and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio are important measures of capital strength even though they are considered to be non-GAAP measures. The tables further within MD&A reconcile these ratios to U.S. GAAP.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

The Company's accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the U.S. and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, the Company provides other financial measures, such as Core net interest margin, tangible common equity ratio and common equity tier 1 capital ratio, in this filing that are considered “non-GAAP financial measures.” Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance, financial position or cash flows that exclude (or include) amounts included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance and capital strength. The Company's management uses, and believes investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing the Company's financial and operating results and related trends and when planning and forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company

has provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure.

The Company believes the tangible common equity and common equity tier 1 capital ratios are important financial measures of capital strength even though they are considered to be non-GAAP measures and provide useful information about the Company's capital adequacy. The tables below contain reconciliations of these ratios to the most comparable measure under U.S. GAAP.

The Company believes Core net interest margin is an important measure of our financial performance, even though it is a non-GAAP financial measure, because it provides supplemental information by which the evaluate the impact of excess Covered loan accretion on the Company's net interest margin and the Company's operating performance on an ongoing bases, excluding such impact. The table below reconciles Core net interest margin to the most comparable number under U.S. GAAP.

Critical Accounting Policies

The impact and any associated risks related to the Company's critical accounting policies on business operations are described throughout "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. For a detailed description on the application of these and other accounting policies, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The disclosures set forth in this item are qualified by the section captioned “Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995” included in Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this report and other cautionary statements set forth elsewhere in this report.

Interest Rate Risk

Our interest rate sensitivity management seeks to avoid fluctuating interest margins to provide for consistent growth of net interest income through periods of changing interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity varies with different types of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We attempt to maintain interest-earning assets, comprised primarily of both loans and investments, and interest-bearing liabilities, comprised primarily of deposits, maturing or repricing in similar time horizons in order to minimize or eliminate any impact from market interest rate changes. In order to measure earnings sensitivity to changing rates, the Company uses an earnings simulation model.

The Company determines the sensitivity of its short-term future earnings to a hypothetical plus or minus 100 to 300 basis point parallel rate shock through the use of simulation modeling. The simulation of earnings includes the modeling of the balance sheet as an ongoing entity. Future business assumptions involving administered rate products, prepayments for future rate-sensitive balances, and the reinvestment of maturing assets and liabilities are included. These items are then modeled to project net interest income based on a hypothetical change in interest rates. The resulting net interest income for the next 12-month period is compared to the net interest income amount calculated using flat rates. This difference represents the Company's earnings sensitivity to a plus or minus 100 basis points parallel rate shock.

The following table summarizes the expected impact of interest rate shocks on net interest income (due to the current level of interest rates, the 200 and 300 basis point downward shock scenarios are not shown):



Rate Shock		Annual % change in net interest income
+ 300 bp		5.6%
+ 200 bp		3.6%
+ 100 bp		1.5%
- 100 bp		-1.3%

Interest rate simulations for June 30, 2015 , demonstrate that a rising rate environment will have a positive impact on net interest income.

The Company occasionally uses interest rate derivative financial instruments as an asset/liability management tool to hedge mismatches in interest rate exposure indicated by the net interest income simulation described above. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $23.8 million in notional amount of outstanding interest rate caps, to help manage interest rate risk.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, as of June 30, 2015 . Disclosure controls and procedures include without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2015 to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of the objectives described above.

Changes to Internal Controls

There were no changes during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, those controls.

May 1, 2015 through May 31, 2015	1,663	20.84		—	2,000,000
June 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015	—	—		—	2,000,000
Total	1,663			—

(a) Represents shares of the Company’s common stock shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of awards of restricted stock. These shares were purchased pursuant to the terms of the applicable plan and not pursuant to a publicly announced repurchase plan or program.

(b) In May 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2 million shares of the Company’s common stock. The repurchases may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions and the repurchase program will remain in effect until fully utilized or until modified, superseded or terminated. The timing and exact amount of common stock repurchases will depend on a number of factors including, among others, market and general economic conditions, economic capital and regulatory capital considerations, alternative uses of capital, the potential impact on our credit ratings, and contractual and regulatory limitations.
