Our primary operations are related to traditional banking activities, including the acceptance of deposits and the lending and investing of money through the operation of the Bank.

In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hanmi Financial and its subsidiaries reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period ended September 30, 2017 , but are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be reported for the entire year or any other interim period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The aforementioned unaudited consolidated financial statements are in conformity with GAAP. Such interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim information should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the “ 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K”).

The preparation of interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates subject to change include, among other items, the determination of allowance for loan and lease losses and various other assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Descriptions of our significant accounting policies are included in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

All individual securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 had investment grade ratings upon purchase. The issuers of these securities have not established any cause for default on these securities and the various rating agencies have reaffirmed these securities’ long-term investment grade status as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . These securities have fluctuated in value since their purchase dates as market interest rates have fluctuated.

The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis. Interest payments have been made as scheduled, and management believes this will continue in the future and that the bonds will be repaid in full as scheduled. Therefore, in management’s opinion, all securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for the past 12 months or longer as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were not other-than-temporarily impaired, and therefore, no impairment charges as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were warranted.

Realized gains and losses on sales of securities and proceeds from sales of securities were as follows for the periods indicated:

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 , there was a $267,000 net gain in earnings resulting from sales of securities. Net unrealized gains of $227,000 related to these sold securities had previously been recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as of the beginning of the period.

Management believes the allowance for loan and lease losses is appropriate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. However, the allowance is an estimate that is inherently uncertain and depends on the outcome of future events. Management’s estimates are based on previous loss experience; volume, growth and composition of the loan and lease portfolio; the value of collateral; and current economic conditions. Our lending is concentrated generally in real estate, commercial, SBA and trade finance lending to small and middle market businesses primarily in California, Texas and Illinois.

The following tables detail the information on the allowance for loan and lease losses by portfolio segment as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 :

Loan and Lease Quality Indicators

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of our loan and lease portfolio, we utilize an internal loan and lease grading system to identify credit risk and assign an appropriate grade, from 0 to 8 , for each loan or lease in our loan and lease portfolio. Third party loan reviews are performed throughout the year. Additional adjustments are made when determined to be necessary. The loan and lease grade definitions are as follows:

Pass and Pass-Watch: Pass and pass-watch loans and leases, grades 0-4, are in compliance in all respects with the Bank’s credit policy and regulatory requirements, and do not exhibit any potential or defined weaknesses as defined under Special Mention, Substandard or Doubtful. This category is the strongest level of the Bank’s loan and lease grading system. It incorporates all performing loans and leases with no credit weaknesses. It includes cash and stock/security secured loans or other investment grade loans.

Special Mention: A special mention credit, grade 5, has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If not corrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects of the debt and result in a Substandard classification. Loans and leases that have significant actual, not potential, weaknesses are considered more severely classified.

Substandard: A substandard credit, grade 6, has a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes the liquidation of the debt. A credit graded Substandard is not protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower, or of the value and type of collateral pledged. With a Substandard loan or lease, there is a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the weaknesses or deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: A doubtful credit, grade 7, is one that has critical weaknesses that would make the collection or liquidation of the full amount due improbable. However, there may be pending events which may work to strengthen the credit, and therefore the amount or timing of a possible loss cannot be determined at the current time.

Loss: A loan or lease classified as loss, grade 8, is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance as an active bank asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan or lease has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this asset even though partial recovery may be possible in the future. Loans and leases classified as loss are charged off in a timely manner.

Under regulatory guidance, loans and leases graded special mention or worse are considered criticized loans and leases, and loans and leases graded substandard or worse are considered classified loans and leases.

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , pass/pass-watch, special mention and classified loans and leases (excluding PCI loans), disaggregated by loan class, were as follows:

Impaired Loans and Leases

Loans and leases are considered impaired when the Bank will be unable to collect all interest and principal payments per the contractual terms of the loan and lease agreement, unless the loan is well-collateralized and in the process of collection; or they are classified as Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) because, due to the financial difficulties of the borrowers, we have granted concessions to the borrowers we would not otherwise consider; or when current information or events make it unlikely to collect in full according to the contractual terms of the loan or lease agreements; or there is a deterioration in the borrower’s financial condition that raises uncertainty as to timely collection of either principal or interest; or full payment of both interest and principal is in doubt according to the original contractual terms.

We evaluate loan and lease impairment in accordance with applicable GAAP. Impaired loans and leases are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the receivable's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the receivable's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan or lease is collateral dependent, less estimated costs to sell. If the measure of the impaired loan or lease is less than the recorded investment in the loan or lease, the deficiency is either charged off against the allowance for loan and lease losses or we establish a specific allocation in the allowance for loan and lease losses. Additionally, loans and leases that are considered impaired are specifically excluded from the quarterly migration analysis when determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses required for the period.

The allowance for collateral-dependent loans is determined by calculating the difference between the outstanding loan balance and the value of the collateral as determined by recent appraisals. The allowance for collateral-dependent loans varies from loan to loan based on the collateral coverage of the loan at the time of designation as nonperforming. We continue to monitor the collateral coverage, using recent appraisals, on these loans on a quarterly basis and adjust the allowance accordingly.

Nonaccrual Loans and Leases and Nonperforming Assets

Loans and leases are placed on nonaccrual status when, in the opinion of management, the full timely collection of principal or interest is in doubt. Generally, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest payments become more than 90 days past due, unless management believes the receivable is adequately collateralized and in the process of collection. However, in certain instances, we may place a particular loan or lease receivable on nonaccrual status earlier, depending upon the individual circumstances surrounding the delinquency. When a receivable is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed against current income. Subsequent collections of cash are applied as principal reductions when received, except when the ultimate collectability of principal is probable, in which case interest payments are credited to income. Nonaccrual loans and leases may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest payments become current and full repayment is expected.

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , total TDRs were $15.6 million and $18.0 million , respectively. A debt restructuring is considered a TDR if we grant a concession, that we would not have otherwise considered to the borrower, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. Loans are considered to be TDRs if they were restructured through payment structure modifications such as reducing the amount of principal and interest due monthly and/or allowing for interest only monthly payments for three months or more. All TDRs are impaired and are individually evaluated for specific impairment using one of these three criteria: (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (2) the loan’s observable market price; or (3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , $2.2 million and $3.4 million , respectively, of allowance relating to these loans were included in the allowance for loan and lease losses.

For the restructured loans on accrual status, we determined that, based on the financial capabilities of the borrowers at the time of the loan restructuring and the borrowers’ past performance in the payment of debt service under the previous loan terms, performance and collection under the revised terms are probable.

During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016, there was one commercial term loan with recorded investment of $53,000 that defaulted subsequent to the modifications occurring within the previous 12 months.There were no such defaults during the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 2017.

Total PCI loans	$	1,153	$	1,180	$	7,530	$	9,863	$	971	$	8,892

Loans accounted for as PCI are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the accretable discount is accreted to interest income over the estimated life of the loan when cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, PCI loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing loans. If the timing and amount of future cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans are classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income is not recognized until the timing and amount of future cash flows can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had no PCI loans on nonaccrual status.

The following table presents a summary of the borrowers' underlying payment status of PCI loans as of the dates indicated:

The Bank had $110.0 million and $315.0 million in advances (borrowings) from the FHLB as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. The FHLB advances were all overnight borrowings at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , interest expense on FHLB advances was $198,000 and $179,000 , respectively, and the weighted-average interest rate was 1.16 percent and 0.47 percent , respectively.

The Bank also has securities with market values of $9.3 million pledged with the FRB, which provides $9.2 million in available borrowing capacity through the Fed Discount Window. There were no outstanding borrowings with the FRB as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 .

Subordinated Debentures

The Company issued Fixed-to-Floating Subordinated Notes (“Notes”) of $100 million on March 21, 2017, with a final maturity on March 30, 2027. The Notes will bear interest at an initial fixed rate of 5.45% per annum, payable semi-monthly on March 30 and September 30 of each year, commencing September 30, 2017. From and including March 30, 2022 and thereafter, the Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to the then current three-month LIBOR, as calculated on each applicable date of determination, plus 3.315% payable quarterly. If the then current three-month LIBOR is less than zero, three-month LIBOR will be deemed to be zero. Debt issuance cost was $2.3 million , which is being amortized through the Note's maturity date. At September 30, 2017 , the balance of Notes included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet, net of debt issuance cost, was $97.9 million . The amortization of debt issuance cost was $43,000 and $90,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively.

The Company assumed Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Subordinated Debentures”) as a result of the acquisition of CBI with an unpaid principal balance of $26.8 million and an estimated fair value of $18.5 million . The $8.3 million discount is being amortized to interest expense through the debentures' maturity date of March 15, 2036. CBI formed a trust in 2005 and issued $26.0 million of Trust Preferred Securities (“TPS”) at 6.26 percent fixed rate for the first five years and a variable rate at the 3 month LIBOR plus 140 basis points thereafter and invested the proceeds in the Subordinated Debentures. The Company may redeem the Subordinated Debentures at an earlier date if certain conditions are met. The TPS will be subject to mandatory redemption if the Subordinated Debentures are repaid by the Company. Interest is payable quarterly , and the Company has the option to defer interest payments on the Subordinated Debentures from time to time for a period not to exceed five consecutive years. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the balance of Subordinated Debentures included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets, net of discount of $7.6 million and $7.8 million , was $19.2 million and $19.0 million , respectively. The amortization of discount was $ 85,000 and $67,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 , and 2016 , respectively, and $243,000 and $185,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , and 2016 , respectively.

Note 7 — Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated on both a basic and a diluted basis. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings, excluding common shares in treasury.

For diluted EPS, weighted-average number of common shares included the impact of restricted stock under the treasury method. Unvested restricted stock containing rights to non-forfeitable dividends are considered participating securities prior to vesting and have been included in the earnings allocation in computing basic and diluted EPS under the two-class method. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income, net of income allocated to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares. For diluted EPS, weighted-average number of common shares include the diluted effect of stock options.

The following table is a reconciliation of the components used to derive basic and diluted EPS for the periods indicated:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016

Effect of dilutive securities - options and unvested restricted stock	160,528		175,763		171,614		150,829

Diluted EPS:

Weighted-average shares for diluted EPS	32,255,814		32,088,233		32,230,319		32,031,295
Diluted EPS	$	0.46	$	0.41	$	1.33	$	1.31

There were no stock options with an anti-dilutive effect for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 , 12,034 and 74,389 stock options, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Note 9 — Regulatory Matters

Risk-Based Capital

In July 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the FDIC approved the Basel III regulatory capital framework and related changes under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The rules revise minimum capital requirements and adjust prompt corrective action thresholds. The rules also revise the regulatory capital elements, add a new common equity Tier I capital ratio, and increase the minimum Tier I capital ratio requirement. The revisions permit banking organizations to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income. Basel III rules, including certain transitional provisions, became effective January 1, 2015, and its requirements are included in the capital ratios presented in the table shown below.

In addition, a new capital conservation buffer of 2.5% began to be phased in effective January 1, 2016 through January 1, 2019, and must be met to avoid limitations on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends, repurchase shares or pay

discretionary bonuses. In January 2016, the new capital conservation buffer requirement was 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. The Company and the Bank's capital conservation buffer was 6.56% and 7.32% , respectively, as of September 30, 2017 , and 5.86% and 5.64% , respectively, as of December 31, 2016 .

The capital ratios of Hanmi Financial and the Bank as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

Note 10 — Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value including a three-level valuation hierarchy, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The three-level fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are defined as follows:


•	Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.


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


•	Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Fair value is used on a recurring basis for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Additionally, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment or for disclosure purposes.

We record securities available for sale at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain other assets, such as loans held for sale, impaired loans, OREO, and core deposit intangible, are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Non-recurring fair value measurements typically involve assets that are periodically evaluated for impairment and for which any impairment is recorded in the period in which the re-measurement is performed.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument below:

Securities available for sale - The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities, or other model-based valuation techniques requiring observable inputs other than quoted prices such as yield curve, prepayment speeds, and default rates. Level 1 securities include U.S. treasury securities and mutual funds that are traded on an active exchange or by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets. The fair value of these securities is determined by quoted prices on an active exchange or over-the-counter market. Level 2 securities primarily include mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, U.S. government agency securities, SBA loan pool securities, municipal bonds and corporate bonds in markets that are active. In determining the fair value of the securities categorized as Level 2, we obtain reports from nationally recognized broker-dealers detailing the fair value of each investment security held as of each reporting date. The broker-dealers use prices obtained from nationally recognized pricing services to value our fixed income securities. The fair value of the municipal securities is determined based on pricing data provided by nationally recognized pricing services. We review the prices obtained for reasonableness based on our understanding of the marketplace, and also consider any credit issues related to the bonds. As we have not made any adjustments to the market quotes provided to us and as they are based on observable market data, they have been categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 securities are instruments that are not traded in the market. As such, no observable market data for the instrument is available, which necessitates the use of significant unobservable inputs.

Loans held for sale - Loans held for sale are all SBA loans and carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Management obtains quotes, bids or pricing indication sheets on all or part of these loans directly from the purchasing financial institutions. Premiums received or to be received on the quotes, bids or pricing indication sheets are indicative of the fact that cost is lower than fair value. At September 30, 2017 , the entire balance of SBA loans held for sale was recorded at its cost. We record SBA loans held for sale on a nonrecurring basis with Level 2 inputs.

Impaired loans (excluding PCI loans) - Nonaccrual loans and performing restructured loans are considered impaired for reporting purposes and are measured and recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Nonaccrual Non-PCI loans with an unpaid principal balance over $100,000 and all performing restructured loans are reviewed individually for the amount of impairment, if any. Nonaccrual Non-PCI loans with an unpaid principal balance of $100,000 or less are evaluated for impairment collectively. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral dependent impaired loans are recorded based on either the current appraised value of the collateral, a Level 2 measurement, or management’s judgment and estimation of value reported on older appraisals that are then adjusted based on recent market trends, a Level 3 measurement.

OREO - Fair value of OREO is based primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell and result in a Level 2 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Appraisals are required annually and may be updated more frequently as circumstances require and the fair value adjustments are made to OREO based on the updated appraised value of the property.

ASC 825, Financial Instruments , requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis are discussed above.

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data in order to develop estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The estimated fair values of financial instruments were as follows:

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it was practicable to estimate that value are explained below:

Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments (Level 1).

Securities - The fair value of securities, consisting of securities available for sale, is generally obtained from market bids for similar or identical securities, from independent securities brokers or dealers, or from other model-based valuation techniques described above (Levels 1, 2 and 3).

Loans and leases receivable, net of allowance for loan and leases losses - Loans and leases receivable include Non-PCI loans and leases, PCI loans and Non-PCI impaired loans. The fair value of Non-PCI loans and leases receivable is estimated based on the discounted cash flow approach. The discount rate was derived from the associated yield curve plus spreads and reflects the offering rates offered by the Bank for loans and leases with similar financial characteristics. Yield curves are constructed by product type using the Bank’s loan and lease pricing model for like-quality credits. The discount rates used in the Bank’s model represent the rates the Bank would offer to current borrowers for like-quality credits. These rates could be different from what other financial institutions could offer for these loans and leases. No adjustments have been made for changes in credit within the loan and lease portfolio. It is our opinion that the allowance for loan and lease losses relating to performing and nonperforming loans and leases results in a fair valuation of such loans and leases. Additionally, the fair value of our loans and leases may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such loans and leases and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize (Level 3).

The fair value of PCI loans receivable was estimated based on discounted expected cash flows. Increases in expected cash flows and improvements in the timing of cash flows over those previously estimated increase the amount of accretable yield and are recognized as an increase in yield and interest income prospectively. Decreases in the amount and delays in the timing of expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated decrease the amount of accretable yield and usually result in a provision for loan losses and the establishment of an allowance for loan losses (Level 3).

The fair value of impaired loans (excluding PCI loans) is estimated based on the net realizable fair value of the collateral or the observable market price of the most recent sale or quoted price from loans held for sale. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral dependent impaired loans are recorded based on the current appraised value of the collateral (Level 3).

Loans held for sale - Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair market value, as determined based upon quotes, bids or sales contract prices, or as may be assessed based upon the fair value of the collateral which is obtained from recent real estate appraisals (Level 2). Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Accrued interest receivable - The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value (Level 1).

FHLB stock - The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates its fair value as such stock may be resold to the issuer at carrying value (Level 2).

Noninterest-bearing deposits - The fair value of noninterest-bearing deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (Level 2).

Interest-bearing deposits - The fair value of interest-bearing deposits, such as savings accounts, money market checking, and certificates of deposit, is estimated based on discounted cash flows. The cash flows for non-maturity deposits, including savings accounts and money market checking, are estimated based on their historical decaying experiences. The discount rate used for fair valuation is based on interest rates currently being offered by the Bank on comparable deposits as to amount and term (Level 3).

Borrowings - Borrowings consist of FHLB advances, subordinated debentures and other borrowings. Discounted cash flows based on current market rates for borrowings with similar remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of borrowings (Level 3).

Accrued interest payable - The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value (Level 1).

Commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit - The fair values of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are based upon the difference between the current value of similar loans and the price at which the Bank has committed to make the loans (Level 3).

Note 11 — Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation Expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , share-based compensation expenses were $ 709,000 and $787,000 , respectively, and net tax benefits recognized from stock option and restricted stock awards were $ 291,000 and $313,000 , respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , share-based compensation expenses were $ 2.1 million and $2.3 million , respectively, and net tax benefits recognized from stock option exercises and vested restricted stock awards were $ 666,000 and $182,000 , respectively.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation , during the three months ended March 30, 2016. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. As a result of adoption of this ASU, excess tax benefits related to the Company's share-based compensation were recognized as income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 .

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards under the Company’s 2007 and 2013 Equity Compensation Plans typically vest over three years and are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to the lapse of restrictions. Hanmi Financial becomes entitled to an income tax deduction in an amount equal to the taxable income reported by the holders of the restricted shares when the restrictions are released and the shares are issued. Forfeited shares of restricted stock become available for future grants upon forfeiture.

The table below provides information for restricted stock awards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 :

Note 12 — Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk similar to the risk involved with on-balance sheet items recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Bank’s exposure to losses in the event of non-performance by the other party to commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank

evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, was based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, premises and equipment, and income-producing or borrower-occupied properties.

The following table shows the distribution of undisbursed loan commitments as of the dates indicated:



	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit	$	301,049	$	310,987
Standby letters of credit	19,521		15,669
Commercial letters of credit	6,833		4,215
Total undisbursed loan commitments	$	327,403	$	330,871

The allowance for off-balance sheet items is maintained at a level believed to be sufficient to absorb probable losses related to these unfunded credit facilities. The determination of the allowance adequacy is based on periodic evaluations of the unfunded credit facilities including an assessment of the probability of commitment usage, credit risk factors for loans outstanding to these same customers, and the terms and expiration dates of the unfunded credit facilities. Net adjustments to the allowance for off-balance sheet items are included in other operating expenses. Activity in the allowance for loan off-balance sheet items was as follows for the periods indicated:



	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017			2016		2017			2016
	(in thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	1,135		$	1,475	$	1,184		$	986

Balance at end of period	$	915		$	1,491	$	915		$	1,491

Note 13 — Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of the financial data included herein. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017 , or would be required to be recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) as of September 30, 2017 .

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the major factors that influenced our results of operations and financial condition as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . This analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K”) and with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017 (this “Report”).

Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the statements under this item and elsewhere in this Report constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements in this Report other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, statements about anticipated future operating and financial performance, financial position and liquidity, business strategies, regulatory and competitive outlook, investment and expenditure plans, capital and financing needs and availability, developments regarding our capital plans, plans and objectives of management for future operations, strategic alternatives for a possible business combination, merger or sale transactions, and other similar forecasts and statements of expectation and statements of assumption underlying any of the foregoing. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statement. These factors include the following: failure to maintain adequate levels of capital and liquidity to support our operations; the effect of potential future supervisory action against us or Hanmi Bank; general economic and business conditions internationally, nationally and in those areas in which we operate, including, but not limited to, California, Illinois and Texas; volatility and deterioration in the credit and equity markets; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; availability of capital from private and government sources; demographic changes; competition for loans and deposits and failure to attract or retain loans and deposits; fluctuations in interest rates and a decline in the level of our interest rate spread; risks of natural disasters related to our real estate portfolio; risks associated with Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans; failure to attract or retain key employees; changes in governmental regulation; enforcement actions against us and litigation we may become a party to; ability of Hanmi Bank to make distributions to Hanmi Financial, which is restricted by certain factors, including Hanmi Bank's retained earnings, net income, prior distributions made, and certain other financial tests; ability to successfully and efficiently integrate the operations of banks and other institutions we acquire; adequacy of our allowance for loan and lease losses; credit quality and the effect of credit quality on our provision for loan and lease losses and allowance for loan and lease losses; changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers and the ability of our borrowers to perform under the terms of their loans and leases and other terms of credit agreements; our ability to control expenses; and changes in securities markets. In addition, for a discussion of some of the other factors that might cause such a difference, see the discussion contained in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other factors we identify from time to time in our filings with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date, on which such statements were made, except as required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have established various accounting policies that govern the application of GAAP in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We had no significant changes in our accounting policies since the filing of our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain accounting policies require us to make significant estimates and assumptions that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these critical accounting policies. For a description of these critical accounting policies, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We use estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of Hanmi Financial’s Board of Directors.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company calculates certain supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including tangible assets, tangible stockholders' equity, tangible book value per share, core interest income and yield, and net interest income and margin excluding acquisition accounting. These non-GAAP measures are used by management in analyzing Hanmi Financial’s capital strength, core loan and lease interest income and yield, and net interest income and margin without the impact of the CBI acquisition.

Tangible equity is calculated by subtracting goodwill created from acquisition of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division and core deposit intangible from stockholders’ equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and core deposit intangible from stockholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Core loan and lease interest income and yield are calculated by subtracting accretion of discount on purchased loans. Net interest income and net interest margin are calculated by adjusting the reported amounts and rates for the impact of the CBI acquisition, including accretion of discount on purchased loans, accretion of time deposit premium and amortization of subordinated debentures discount.

Management believes the presentation of these financial measures excluding the impact of items described in the preceding paragraph provide useful supplemental information that are essential to a proper understanding of the capital strength of Hanmi Financial and our core interest income and margin. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitution for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

Executive Overview

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, net income was $14.9 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared with $13.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Net income for the third quarter of 2017 increased 13.7%, or $1.8 million. Income before the provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2017 increased 16.1%, or $3.4 million principally because of the 13.5%, or $5.3 million, increase in net interest income driven by an increase in loans and leases receivable. The increase in net interest income however was partially offset by an increase in the loan and lease loss provision of $1.7 million and a $0.3 million increase in non-interest expenses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, net income was $43.2 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, compared with $42.1 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net income for the first nine months of 2017 increased 2.6%, or $1.1 million. Income before the provision for income taxes for the first nine months of 2017 increased 8.2%, or $5.4 million, principally because of the 10.4%, or $12.3 million, increase in net interest income driven by an increase in loans and leases receivable. The increase in net interest income however was partially offset by an increase in the loan and lease loss provision of $5.1 million and a $2.6 million increase in non-interest expenses.

Other financial highlights include the following:


•	Loans and leases receivable, before the allowance for loan and lease losses, were $4.20 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2017, up $350.6 million, or 9.1 percent, from $3.84 billion at the end of 2016.


•	Deposits at September 30, 2017 were $4.30 billion, an increase of $89.3 million, or 12.8 percent, from $3.81 billion at the end of 2016.


•	Non-performing assets were $16.5 million, or 0.32 percent of assets, at the end of the third quarter of 2017 compared with $18.9 million, or 0.40 percent of total assets at the end of 2016.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Our primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest and fees derived from earning assets, and interest paid on liabilities obtained to fund those assets. Our net interest income is affected by changes in the level and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as volume changes. Net interest income is also affected by changes in the yields earned on assets and rates paid on liabilities, referred to as rate changes. Interest rates charged on loans and leases are affected principally by changes to interest rates, the demand for such loans and leases, the supply of money available for lending purposes, and other competitive factors. Those factors are, in turn, affected by general economic conditions and other factors beyond our control, such as federal economic policies, the general supply of money in the economy, legislative tax policies, governmental budgetary matters, and the actions of the Federal Reserve.

The following tables show the average balances of assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity; the amount of interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, and interest expense; the average yield or rate for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities; and the net interest spread and the net interest margin for the periods indicated. All average balances are daily average balances.

Interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased $9.5 million, or 21.2 percent, to $54.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $44.8 million for the same period in 2016. Interest expense increased $4.2 million, or 88.4 percent, to $8.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $4.7 million for the same period in 2016. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $45.4 million and $40.1 million, respectively. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the 17.7 percent growth in average loans and leases and the change in the mix of interest earning assets with average loans and leases at 86.0 percent of average interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2017, up from 84.2 percent for the third quarter of 2016, offset by higher rates paid on interest-bearing deposit and increases in other borrowings balances and rates. The net interest spread and net interest margin, on a taxable equivalent basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were 3.42 percent and 3.79 percent, respectively, compared with 3.61 percent and 3.86 percent, respectively, for the same period in 2016. Excluding the effects of acquisition accounting adjustments, net interest margin was 3.76 percent and 3.75 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Average loans and leases increased $614.7 million, or 17.7 percent, to $4.10 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $3.48 billion for the same period in 2016. Average securities increased $21.7 million, or 3.7 percent, to $611.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $589.8 million for the same period in 2016. Average interest-earning assets increased $628.9 million, or 15.2 percent, to $4.76 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $4.13 billion for the same period in 2016. The increase in average loans and leases was due mainly to new loan production and the commencement of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division in the fourth quarter of 2016. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $535.9 million, or 20.2 percent, to $3.19 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared with $2.65 billion for the same period in 2016. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities resulted primarily from an increase in money market and savings deposits, time deposits and the $100 million of subordinated debt issued in the first quarter of 2017. In addition, average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $68.3 million, or 5.7 percent, to $1.26 billion for the third quarter of 2017 from $1.19 billion in the same period in 2016.

The average yield on loans and leases increased to 4.87 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 4.71 percent for the same period in 2016, primarily due to new loan production and the commencement of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division in the fourth quarter of 2016. The average yield on securities, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased to 2.41 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 2.18 percent for the same period in 2016, attributable primarily to purchasing higher yielding U.S. Government agency mortgage-backed securities. The average yield on interest-earning assets, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased 21 basis points to 4.53 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 4.32 percent for the same period in 2016, due mainly to the higher percentage of loans in the mix of interest-earning assets. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 40 basis points to 1.11 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.71 percent for the same period in 2016.

Interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased $22.3 million, or 16.8 percent, to $155.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $132.7 million for the same period in 2016. Interest expense increased $10.1 million, or 77.2 percent, to $23.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $13.0 million for the same period in 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $132.0 million and $119.7 million, respectively. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the 19.3 percent growth in average loans and leases and the change in the mix of interest earning assets with average loans and leases at 86.3 percent of average interest-earning assets for the first nine months of 2017, up from 82.4 percent for the same period in 2016. The net interest spread and net interest margin, on a taxable equivalent basis, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were 3.50 percent and 3.83 percent, respectively, compared with 3.71 percent and 3.95 percent, respectively, for the same period in 2016. Excluding the effects of acquisition accounting adjustments, net interest margin was 3.79 percent and 3.76 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Average loans and leases increased $642.6 million, or 19.3 percent, to $3.98 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $3.33 billion for the same period in 2016. Average securities decreased $68.3 million, or 10.6 percent, to $574.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $643.1 million for the same period in 2016. Average interest-earning assets increased $563.4 million, or 13.9 percent, to $4.61 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $4.05 billion for the same period in 2016. The increase in average loans and leases was due mainly to new loan production and the commencement of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division in the fourth quarter of 2016. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $483.2 million, or 18.6 percent, to $3.08 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with $2.60 billion for the same period in 2016. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities resulted primarily from an increase in money market and savings deposits and the $100 million of subordinated debt issued in the first quarter of 2017. In addition, average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $58.5 million, or 5.0 percent, to $1.22 billion for the first nine months of 2017 from $1.17 billion in the same period in 2016.

The average yield on loans and leases decreased to 4.83 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 4.84 percent for the same period in 2016, primarily due to a decrease in discount accretion on purchased loans. The average yield on securities, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased to 2.36 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from

2.10 percent for the same period in 2016, attributable primarily to purchasing higher yielding U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities. The average yield on interest-earning assets, on a taxable equivalent basis, increased 12 basis points to 4.50 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 4.38 percent for the same period in 2016, due mainly to the higher percentage of loans in the mix of interest-earning assets. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 33 basis points to 1.00 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 0.67 percent for the same period in 2016.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

In anticipation of credit risks inherent in our lending business, we set aside an allowance for loan and lease losses through charges to earnings. These charges are made not only for our outstanding loan and lease portfolio, but also for off-balance sheet items, such as commitments to extend credit, or letters of credit. The provisions, whether a charge or a credit, made for our outstanding loan and lease portfolio are recorded to the allowance for loan and lease losses, whereas charges or credits to other noninterest expense for off-balance sheet items are recorded to the allowance for off-balance sheet items, and are presented as a component of other liabilities.

The provision for loan and lease losses was $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2017. For the same period in 2016, the provision for loan and lease losses was a negative $1.5 million. The charge to other noninterest expense for losses on off-balance sheet items was a negative $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to none for the same period in 2016.

The provision for loan and lease losses was $0.6 million for the first nine months of 2017, which included a negative loan loss provision of $0.2 million related to Purchased Credit Impaired loans from the 2014 acquisition. For the same period in 2016, the provision for loan and lease losses was a negative $4.5 million, which included a loan loss provision of $0.2 million related to Purchased Credit Impaired loans. The charge to other noninterest expense for losses on off-balance sheet items was a negative $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2016.

Net gain on sales of securities	267		46		221			480.4	%
Total noninterest income	$	8,816	$	8,674	$	142		1.6	%

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, noninterest income was $8.8 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 1.6 percent, compared with $8.7 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increased gains on the sale of SBA loans and securities transactions offset by lower other operating income. Gains on SBA loan sales were $2.5 million for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of $0.9 million from the third quarter of 2016 as the volume of loan sales increased to $32.5 million from $24.1 million in the same quarter last year. Sales of securities resulted in a net gain of $267,000 for the third quarter of 2017 compared with $46,000 for the same period in 2016. Other operating income was $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 48.3%, compared with $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2016. The decrease in other operating income was due to the gain from the sale of a branch facility in the third quarter of 2016.

The following table sets forth the various components of noninterest income for the periods indicated:

Total noninterest income	$	25,733	$	25,008	$	725		2.9	%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, noninterest income was $25.7 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 2.9 percent, compared with $25.0 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increased gains on the sale of SBA loans and securities transactions offset by lower gains from the resolution or disposition of PCI loans and service charges on deposit accounts. Gains on SBA loan sales were $6.7 million for the first nine months of 2017, an increase of $2.4 million from the first nine months of 2016 as the volume of loan sales increased to $84.5 million from $55.9 million in the same quarter last year. Sales of securities resulted in a net gain of $1.7 million for the first nine months of 2017 compared with $46,000 for the same period in 2016. Disposition gains on PCI loans were $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2107 compared with $3.4 million the same period in 2016.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense	$	28,660		$	28,337	$	323		1.1	%

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, noninterest expense was $28.7 million, an increase of $0.3 million or 1.1 percent, compared with $28.3 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, OREO and data processing, offset by a decrease in other operating expenses. The increase in salaries and employee benefits is largely due to personnel added with the commencement of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division and annual merit increases compared to the same period in 2016. The decrease in other operating expenses is mainly due to a $1.4 million charge for the three months ended September 30, 2016 related to the finalization of prior year FDIC loss share claims.

The following table sets forth the components of noninterest expense for the periods indicated:



	Nine Months Ended September 30,					Increase (Decrease)

Total noninterest expense	$	84,843		$	82,269	$	2,574		3.1	%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, noninterest expense was $84.8 million, an increase of $2.6 million or 3.1 percent, compared with $82.3 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits, data processing and occupancy and equipment expense, offset by a decrease in other operating expense. The increase in salaries and employee benefits is largely due to personnel added with the commencement of the Commercial Equipment Leasing Division and annual merit increases compared to the same period in 2016. The decrease in other operating expenses is mainly due to a $1.4 million charge for the three months ended September 30, 2016 related to the finalization of prior year FDIC loss share claims.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared with $8.2 million for the same period in 2016. The effective income tax rate was 39.9 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 38.6 percent for the same period in 2016.

30, 2017 compared with December 31, 2016 was primarily attributable to new loan and lease production of $702.1 million and loan purchases of $161.3 million.

Our loan and lease portfolio included the following concentrations of loans to one type of industry that were greater than 10 percent of loans and leases outstanding:



	Balance at September 30, 2017		Percentage of Loans and Leases Outstanding
	Balance at September 30, 2017		Percentage of Loans and Leases Outstanding
Industry	(in thousands)

Hospitality	$	739,401	17.6	%

There was no other concentration of loans and leases to any one type of industry exceeding 10.0 percent of loans and leases outstanding.

Nonperforming Loans and Leases and Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans and leases (excluding PCI loans) consist of loans and leases on nonaccrual status and loans and leases 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and leases and OREO. Non-purchased credit impaired (“Non-PCI”) loans and leases are placed on nonaccrual status when, in the opinion of management, the full timely collection of principal or interest is in doubt. Generally, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest payments become more than 90 days past due, unless we believe the loan is adequately collateralized and in the process of collection. However, in certain instances, we may place a particular receivable on nonaccrual status earlier, depending upon the individual circumstances surrounding the receivable's delinquency. When an asset is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed against current income. Subsequent collections of cash are applied as principal reductions when received, except when the ultimate collectability of principal is probable, in which case interest payments are credited to income. Nonaccrual assets may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and full repayment is expected. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis for impaired loans and leases not meeting the criteria for nonaccrual. OREO consists of properties acquired by foreclosure or similar means that management intends to offer for sale.

Except for nonperforming loans and leases set forth below and PCI loans, we are not aware of any loans or leases as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 for which known credit problems of the borrower would cause serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with their present repayment terms, or any known events that would result in the receivable being designated as nonperforming at some future date. We cannot, however, predict the extent to which a deterioration in general economic conditions, real estate values, increases in general rates of interest, or changes in the financial condition or business of borrower may adversely affect a borrower’s ability to pay.

The following table provides information with respect to the components of nonperforming assets (excluding PCI loans) as of the dates indicated:

⁽¹⁾	Includes nonperforming TDRs of $7.2 million and $6.9 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Nonaccrual Non-PCI loans and leases were $14.6 million as of September 30, 2017, compared with $11.4 million as of December 31, 2016, representing an increase of $3.2 million, or 27.6 percent, primarily due to lease receivables. There were no Non-PCI loans or leases past due 90 days or more and still accruing as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, $8.8 million of loans and leases were placed on nonaccrual status. These additions to nonaccrual loans and leases were partially offset by $1.1 million of nonaccrual loans and leases restored to accrual status and $2.1 million in principal payoffs and pay downs and $0.2 million in OREO transfers.

Delinquent Non-PCI loans and leases (defined as 30 to 89 days past due and still accruing) were $7.6 million as of September 30, 2017, compared with $7.4 million as of December 31, 2016.

The ratio of nonperforming Non-PCI loans and leases to Non-PCI loans and leases increased to 0.35 percent at September 30, 2017 from 0.30 percent at December 31, 2016. Of the $14.6 million nonperforming Non-PCI loans and leases, approximately $14.3 million were impaired based on the definition contained in ASC 310, Receivables, which resulted in an aggregate impairment reserve of $6.4 million as of September 30, 2017. The allowance for collateral-dependent loans is calculated as the difference between the outstanding loan balance and the value of the collateral as determined by recent appraisals less estimated costs to sell. The allowance for collateral-dependent loans varies from loan to loan based on the collateral coverage of the loan at the time of designation as nonperforming. We continue to monitor the collateral coverage, based on recent appraisals, on these loans on a quarterly basis and adjust the allowance accordingly.

As of September 30, 2017, OREO consisted of 6 properties with a combined carrying value of $1.9 million, as compared with 12 properties with a combined carrying value of $7.5 million as of December 31, 2016.

Impaired Loans and Leases

We evaluate loan and lease impairment in accordance with GAAP. With the exception of PCI loans, loans and leases are considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan and lease agreement, including scheduled interest payments. Impaired loans and leases are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the receivable's effective interest rate or, as an expedient, at the receivable's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, less costs to sell. If the measure of the impaired receivable is less than the recorded investment in the receivable, the deficiency will be charged off against the allowance for loan and lease losses or, alternatively, a specific allocation will be established. Additionally, impaired loans and leases are specifically excluded from the quarterly migration analysis when determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses required for the period.

The following table provides information on impaired loans and lease (excluding PCI loans) as of the dates indicated:

Total impaired loans and leases increased $1.1 million, or 4.4 percent, to $27.5 million as of September 30, 2017, from $26.4 million at December 31, 2016. Specific allowances associated with impaired loans and leases were $6.4 million and $4.3 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, interest income that would have been recognized had impaired loans and leases performed in accordance with their original terms totaled $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Of these amounts, actual interest recognized on impaired loans and leases was $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, interest income that would have been recognized had impaired loans and leases performed in accordance with their original terms totaled $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Of these amounts, actual interest recognized on impaired loans and leases was $1.3 million and $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, four loans were restructured and subsequently classified as TDRs. Temporary payment structure modifications included, but were not limited to, reducing the amount of principal and/or interest due monthly and/or allowing for interest only monthly payments for nine months or less.

As of September 30, 2017, TDRs on accrual status were $8.5 million, all of which were temporary interest rate and payment reductions or extensions of maturity, and a $0.2 million allowance relating to these loans was included in the allowance for loan and lease losses. For the TDRs on accrual status, we determined that, based on the financial capabilities of the borrowers at the time of the loan restructuring and the borrowers’ past performance in the payment of debt service under the previous loan terms, performance and collection under the revised terms is probable. As of September 30, 2017, TDRs on nonaccrual status were $7.2 million, and a $2.0 million allowance relating to these loans was included in the allowance for loan and lease losses.

As of December 31, 2016, TDRs on accrual status were $11.1 million, all of which were temporary interest rate and payment reductions or extensions of maturity, and a $0.7 million allowance relating to these loans was included in the allowance for loan and lease losses. As of December 31, 2016, TDRs on nonaccrual status were $6.9 million, and a $2.6 million allowance relating to these loans was included in the allowance for loan and lease losses.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and Allowance for Off-Balance Sheet Items

The Bank charges or credits operating expenses for provisions to the allowance for loan and lease losses and the allowance for off-balance sheet items at least quarterly based upon the allowance need. The allowance is determined through an analysis involving quantitative calculations based on historic loss rates and qualitative adjustments for general reserves and individual impairment calculations for specific allocations. The Bank charges the allowance for actual losses and credits the allowance for recoveries on loans and leases previously charged-off.

The Bank evaluates the allowance methodology at least annually. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2016 through the first nine months of 2017, the Bank utilized a 24-quarter look-back period with equal weighting to all quarters. For the first nine months of 2016, the Bank utilized a 20-quarter look-back period.

To determine general reserve requirements, existing loans and leases are divided into general pools of risk-rated loans, as well as homogeneous pools. During the first nine months of 2016, existing loans were divided into fourteen general loan pools of risk-rated loans as well as three homogeneous loan pools. For the fourth quarter of 2016 through the first nine months of 2017, loans were divided into eleven general pools of risk-rated loans, as well as the three homogeneous pools. For risk-rated loans, migration analysis allocates historical losses by pool and risk grade to determine risk factors for potential loss inherent in the current outstanding portfolio. As three homogeneous pools are bulk graded, the risk grade is not factored into the historical loss analysis. In addition, specific reserves are allocated for loans deemed “impaired.”

When determining the appropriate level for allowance for loan and lease losses, management considers qualitative adjustments for any factors that are likely to cause estimated loan and lease losses associated with the Bank’s current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience, including, but not limited to, national and local economic and business conditions, volume and geographic concentrations, and problem loan trends.

To systematically quantify the credit risk impact of trends and changes within the loan and lease portfolio, a credit risk matrix is utilized. The qualitative factors are considered on a loan pool by loan pool basis subsequent to, and in conjunction

with, a loss migration analysis. The credit risk matrix provides various scenarios with positive or negative impact on the portfolio along with corresponding basis points for qualitative adjustments.

Allowance for loan and lease losses was $32.5 million, $32.4 million and $39.0 million, as of September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and September 30, 2016, respectively. The increase of $63,000, or 0.2 percent, in the allowance for loan and lease losses as of September 30, 2017, compared with December 31, 2016 was due primarily to the in loan and lease receivables. Accordingly, the non-PCI loan and lease loss allowance increased $240,000 to $31.7 million as of September 30, 2017, compared with $31.5 million at December 31, 2016. The PCI loan loss allowance decreased $0.2 million to $0.8 million as of September 30, 2017, compared with $1.0 million at December 31, 2016.

The allowance for off-balance sheet exposure, primarily unfunded loan commitments, was $0.9 million, $1.2 million and $1.5 million as of September 30, 2017, December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016, respectively. The Bank closely monitors the borrower’s repayment capabilities, while funding existing commitments to ensure losses are minimized.

Based on management’s evaluation and analysis of portfolio credit quality and prevailing economic conditions, we believe these allowances are adequate for losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio and for off-balance sheet exposures as of September 30, 2017.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, total charge-offs were $2.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, total recoveries were $871,000, an increase of $40,000, or 4.8 percent, from $831,000 for the same period in 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, total charge-offs were $3.3 million, an increase of $1.8 million or 131.0 percent from $1.4 million for the same period in 2016, and total recoveries were $2.7 million, an increase of $0.6 million or 30.3 percent from $2.1 million for the same period in 2016.

Deposits

The following table shows the composition of deposits by type as of the dates indicated:



	September 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Balance		Percent		Balance		Percent
	(dollars in thousands)
Demand – noninterest-bearing	$	1,293,538	30.1	%	$	1,203,240	31.6	%
Interest-bearing:	—
Demand	90,734		2.1	%	96,856		2.5	%
Money market and savings	1,534,457		35.7	%	1,329,324		34.9	%
Time deposits of $100,000 or more ⁽¹⁾	1,074,870		25.0	%	844,386		22.2	%
Other time deposits	305,411		7.1	%	335,931		8.8	%
Total deposits	$	4,299,010	100.0	%	$	3,809,737	100.0	%


⁽¹⁾	Includes $430.5 million and $445.4 million of time deposits of $250,000 or more as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Deposits increased $489.3 million, or 12.8 percent, to $4.30 billion as of September 30, 2017 from $3.81 billion as of December 31, 2016. The increase in deposits was mainly attributable to the $205.1 million and $200.0 million increase in money market and savings deposits and time deposits, respectively.

Borrowings

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were $110.0 million and $315.0 million in overnight advances from the FHLB, respectively. The reduction in FHLB advances was supported by the increase in deposits for the first nine months of 2017. In addition, subordinated debentures were $117.1 million and $19.0 million at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The change represents the proceeds from the subordinated note offering that closed on March 21, 2017.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The spread between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities is the principal component of net interest income, and interest rate changes substantially affect our financial performance. We emphasize capital protection through stable earnings rather than maximizing yield. In order to achieve stable earnings, we prudently manage our assets and liabilities and closely monitor the percentage changes in net interest income and equity value in relation to limits established within our guidelines.

The Company performs simulation modeling to estimate the potential effects of interest rate changes. The following table summarizes one of the stress simulations performed to forecast the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the value of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflected on our balance sheet (i.e., an instantaneous parallel shift in the yield curve of the magnitude indicated below). This sensitivity analysis is compared to policy limits, which specify the maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure over a 1- to 12-month and a 13- to 24-month horizon, given the basis point adjustment in interest rates reflected below.



	Net Interest Income Simulation
	1- to 12-Month Horizon				13- to 24-Month Horizon
Change in Interest Rate	Dollar Change			Percentage Change	Dollar Change			Percentage Change
	(dollars in thousands)
300%	$	(2,297	)	(1.25)%	$	5,326		2.89%
200%	$	(1,547	)	(0.84)%	$	3,582		1.94%
100%	$	(395	)	(0.21)%	$	2,728		1.48%
(100)%	$	(12,406	)	(6.74)%	$	(21,438	)	(11.63)%



	Economic Value of Equity (EVE)
Change in Interest Rate	Dollar Change			Percentage Change
	(dollars in thousands)
300%	$	(20,246	)	(3.53)%
200%	$	(12,411	)	(2.16)%
100%	$	788		0.14%
(100)%	$	(45,610	)	(7.94)%

The estimated sensitivity does not necessarily represent our forecast, and the results may not be indicative of actual changes to our net interest income. These estimates are based upon a number of assumptions including the nature and timing of interest rate levels including yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and leases and securities, pricing strategies on loans and leases and deposits, and replacement of asset and liability cash flows. While the assumptions used are based on current economic and local market conditions, there is no assurance as to the predictive nature of these conditions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Capital Resources

Historically, our primary source of capital has been the retention of operating earnings. In order to ensure adequate levels of capital, the Board regularly assesses projected sources and uses of capital in conjunction with projected increases in assets and levels of risk. Management considers, among other things, earnings generated from operations, and access to capital from financial markets through the issuance of additional securities, including common stock or notes, to meet our capital needs.

At September 30, 2017 , the Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio of 15.32 percent, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 14.55 percent, common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 14.55 percent and Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 12.66 percent, placed the

Bank in the “well capitalized” category pursuant to capital rules, which is defined as institutions with total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 10.00 percent, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 8.00 percent, common equity Tier 1 capital ratios equal to or greater than 6.50 percent and Tier 1 leverage capital ratio equal to or greater than 5.00 percent.

At September 30, 2017 , the Company's total risk-based capital ratio was 15.58 percent, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 12.56 percent, common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.20 percent and Tier 1 leverage capital ratio was 10.92 percent.

For a discussion of implemented changes to the capital adequacy framework prompted by Basel III and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, see our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Liquidity

Hanmi Financial

Management believes that Hanmi Financial, on a stand-alone basis, has adequate liquid assets to meet its current obligations.

Hanmi Bank

The principal objective of our liquidity management program is to maintain the Bank’s ability to meet the day-to-day cash flow requirements of our customers who either wish to withdraw funds or to draw upon credit facilities to meet their cash needs. Management believes that the Bank, on a stand-alone basis, has adequate liquid assets to meet its current obligations. The Bank’s primary funding source will continue to be deposits originating from its branch platform. The Bank’s wholesale funds historically consisted of FHLB advances and brokered deposits. As of September 30, 2017, the Bank had $145.2 million of brokered deposits.

We monitor the sources and used of funds on a regular basis to maintain an acceptable liquidity position. The Bank’s primary source of borrowings is the FHLB, from which the Bank is eligible to borrow up to 30% of its assets. As of September 30, 2017, the total borrowing capacity available based on pledged collateral and remaining available borrowing capacity were $808.9 million and $698.9 million, respectively, compared to $736.6 million and $421.6 million, respectively as of December 31, 2016.

As a means of augmenting its liquidity, the Bank had an available borrowing source of $8.9 million from the Federal Reserve Discount Window, to which the Bank pledged securities with a carrying value of $9.5 million, and had no borrowings as of September 30, 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

For a discussion of off-balance sheet arrangements, see Note 12 - Off-Balance Sheet Commitments included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in this Report and “Item 1. Business - Off-Balance Sheet Commitments” in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , replaces existing revenue recognition guidance for contracts to provide goods or services to customers and amends existing guidance related to recognition of gains and losses on the sale of certain nonfinancial assets such as real estate. ASU 2014-09 established a principles-based approach to recognizing revenue that applies to all contracts other than those covered by other authoritative U.S. GAAP guidance. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are also required. ASU 2014-09 was to be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and was to be applied on either a modified retrospective or full retrospective basis. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the original effective date for all entities by one year. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2015-14

to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.

While the guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP, the ASU is not applicable to financial instruments and, therefore, will not impact a majority of the Company’s revenue, including net interest income. While in scope of the new guidance, the Company does not expect a material change in the timing or measurement of revenues related to deposit account fees. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect that this guidance will have on other revenue streams within its scope, as well as changes in disclosures required by the new guidance. However, we do not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10) , Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements of financial instruments. The FASB additionally clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for the accounting guidance on financial liabilities under the fair value option. While we are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, we do not expect its adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , introduces the most significant change for lessees including the requirement under the new guidance to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases not considered short-term leases. By definition, a short-term lease is one in which: (a) the lease term is 12 months or less; and (b) there is not an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. For short-term leases, lessees may elect an accounting policy by class of underlying asset under which right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are not recognized and lease payments are generally recognized as expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. This change will result in lessees recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for most leases currently accounted for as operating leases under the legacy lease accounting guidance. Examples of changes in the new guidance affecting both lessees and lessors include: (a) defining initial direct costs to only include those incremental costs that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been entered into, (b) requiring related party leases to be accounted for based on their legally enforceable terms and conditions, (c) eliminating the additional requirements that must be applied today to leases involving real estate and (d) revising the circumstances under which the transfer contract in a sale-leaseback transaction should be accounted for as the sale of an asset by the seller-lessee and the purchase of an asset by the buyer-lessor. In addition, both lessees and lessors are subject to new disclosure requirements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

As a lessee in several operating lease arrangements that are not considered short-tem, effective January 1, 2019, the Company expects to recognize a lease liability for the present value of future such lease commitments and a right of use asset for the same leases. While the Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance, the adoption will result in an increase in the Company’s assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets and it will likely not have a significant impact on our consolidated net income, stockholders’ equity or cash flows.

FASB ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , introduces new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. The new guidance introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. Current expected credit losses (“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 loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, loan commitments, financial guarantees, and net investments in leases, as well as reinsurance and trade receivables. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the CECL model requires an entity to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses (ECL) should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics should be grouped together when estimating ECL. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application of the guidance will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) , addresses eight classification issues related to the statement of cash flows: (1) Debt prepayment of debt extinguishment costs; (2) Settlement of zero-coupon bonds: (3) Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) Proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) Proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) Distributions received from equity method investees; (7) Beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) Separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) , requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Entities will also be required to reconcile such total to amounts on the balance sheet and disclose the nature of the restrictions. ASU 2016-18 is effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of Business , provides guidance on evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The new standard clarifies that when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset, or a group of similar assets, the asset acquired would not represent a business. The new ASU introduces this initial required screen and, if met, eliminates the need for further assessment. For public business entities with a calendar year end, the standard is effective in 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments can be applied to transactions occurring before the guidance was issued, as long as the applicable financial statements have not been issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., the current Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Under this ASU, the impairment test is simply the comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount (the current Step 1), with the impairment charge being the deficit in fair value but not exceeding the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The simplified one-step impairment test applies to all reporting units (including those with zero or negative carrying amounts). An entity should apply the amendments in this ASU on a prospective basis. An entity is required to disclose the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle upon transition. That disclosure should be provided in the first annual period and in the interim period within the first annual period when the entity initially adopts the amendments in this standard. Public business entities should adopt the amendments in this ASU for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2017-08, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Topic 310): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities , shortens the period of amortization of the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. ASU 2017-08 applies to securities that have explicit, non-contingent call features that are callable at fixed prices and on preset dates. Securities purchased at a discount and mortgage-backed securities in which early repayment is based on prepayment of the underlying assets of the security are outside the scope of ASU 2017-08. For public business entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, and applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting , provides clarity and reduces both diversity in practice, and costs and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 to a change in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. Under ASU 2017-09, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (1) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the

original award immediately before the original award is modified. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities , was issued in August 2017 with the objective of improving the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. In addition to that main objective, the amendments in this Update make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. The ASU requires certain hedging instrument to be presented in the same line item as the hedged item and also requires expanded disclosures. This ASU’s mandatory effective date for calendar year-end public companies is January 1, 2019, but the amendments may be early adopted in any interim or annual period after issuance. The Company does not currently have hedging transactions that would be impacted by this ASU and does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding market risks in Hanmi Bank’s portfolio, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Interest Rate Risk Management” and “- Capital Resources” in this Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2017 , Hanmi Financial carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer). The purpose of the disclosure controls and procedures is to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Hanmi Financial’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017 .

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the most recent fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect Hanmi Financial's internal control over financial reporting.
