Part I - Financial Information

Item 1 - Financial Statements

The following interim financial statements of Canyon Bancorp (the “Company”) are as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The Company is a bank holding company that was incorporated on January 18, 2006, under the laws of the State of California for the purpose of becoming the holding company for Canyon National Bank (the “Bank”). Shareholders of the Bank approved a one-bank holding company reorganization which was consummated on June 30, 2006, pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization entered into on February 14, 2006. All outstanding shares of the Bank’s common stock were exchanged for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis. Additionally, the Bank issued 100 shares of common stock to the Company. Therefore, the Company owns one hundred percent of the Bank as of September 30, 2007. In addition, each outstanding stock option granted previously to purchase the Bank’s common stock was converted into an option to purchase the Company’s common stock. Prior to the reorganization, the Company did not conduct any business operations.

Financial statements for September 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006 and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 are consolidated for the Company and the Bank. With the exception of the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2006, these financial statements are unaudited; all financial statements presented here are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. However, the financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented and are normal and recurring.

Results for the periods as presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year as a whole.

2.	Current Accounting Pronouncements

FAIR VALUE OPTIONS: On February 15, 2007 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the FASB’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this SFAS would have on its financial condition and results of operations.

POSTRETIREMENT PLANS: Also in September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans”, which improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This Statement also improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. An employer with publicly traded equity securities is required to initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The Company, which is an employer without publicly traded equity securities, would be required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after June 15, 2007. However, the Company does not have a defined benefit postretirement plan and does not expect this SFAS to have a material impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS: In September 2006 FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for the fiscal year, including financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this SFAS would have on its financial condition and results or operations.

ACCOUNTING FOR SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS: Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in specific situations. Additionally, the servicing asset or servicing liability shall be initially measured at fair value; however, an entity may elect the “amortization method” or “fair value method” for subsequent balance sheet reporting periods. The adoption of this SFAS did not have a material impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN HYBRID FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Effective January 1, 2007 the Company adopted FASB SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.” SFAS No. 155 simplifies accounting for certain hybrid instruments currently governed by SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” by allowing fair value remeasurement of hybrid instruments that contain an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. SFAS No. 155 also eliminates the guidance in SFAS No. 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets,” which provides such beneficial interests are not subject to SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities - a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125,” by eliminating the restriction on passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity may hold. The adoption of this SFAS did not have a material impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES : In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement 109”. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, including a decision whether to file or not to file in a particular jurisdiction. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. If there are changes in net assets as a result of application of FIN 48 these will be accounted for as an adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated position and results of operations.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

The Company is a bank holding company with a single banking subsidiary. The Company was incorporated on January 18, 2006, for the purpose of acquiring Canyon National Bank. Effective June 30, 2006, the Company acquired all of the stock of the Bank pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization dated February 14, 2006 between the Company and the Bank. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the shares of the Bank’s common stock were exchanged for shares of the common stock of the Company on a share-for-share basis. As a result, upon the consummation of the reorganization on June 30, 2006, the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the shareholders of the Bank became the shareholders of the Company. The Bank is a national banking association which was organized on March 6, 1998, and is headquartered in Palm Springs, California. Palm Springs is located in the Coachella Valley, which is located within Riverside County in Southern California. The Bank received its charter to commence the business of banking from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) on July 10, 1998. Concurrent with OCC approval, FDIC deposit insurance became effective and began insuring depositor’s accounts up to $100,000. In July 1998, the Bank opened for business and commenced banking operations at its main office located at 1711 East Palm Canyon Drive, Palm Springs, California. In addition to its main office, the Bank has three branch offices, one in Palm Springs and two in Palm Desert. The Bank’s most recently opened branch, located at 77-933 Las Montanas Road, Palm Desert, California, commenced operations on March 23, 2006.

As of November 12, 2007, the Company’s 2,343,396 shares of Common Stock are held by 300 shareholders of record. Common Stock of the Company is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “CYBA”.

Forward Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “projects”, and “estimates” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed, forecast in, or implied by such forward looking statements.

A variety of factors could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, and should be considered when evaluating the potential future financial performance of the Bank. These include, but are not limited to, the possibility of deterioration in economic conditions in the Coachella Valley, the Company’s service area; risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates; liquidity risks; asset/liability matching risks; the competitive environment in which the Company operates and its impact upon the Company’s net interest margin; increases in non-performing assets and net credit losses that could occur, particularly in times of weak economic conditions or rising interest rates; and risks associated with the many current and future laws and regulations to which the Company is subject.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. Most complex accounting policies require management’s judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. The Company has established detailed policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief description of current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s best estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses charged to expense and reduced by loans charged-off, net of recoveries.

Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is a “critical accounting estimate” because it is based upon management’s assessment of various factors affecting the collectability of the loans, including current and projected economic conditions, past credit experience, delinquency status, the value of the underlying collateral, if any, and a continuing review of the portfolio of loans and commitments.

The Company determines the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses, primarily based on an analysis of the various components of the loan portfolio, including all significant credits on an individual basis. The loan portfolio is segmented into components. Each component would normally have similar characteristics, such as risk classification, type of loan, or collateral. The following components of the portfolio are analyzed and an allowance for loan losses is provided for:

•

All significant credits on an individual basis that are classified doubtful or substandard.

•

All other significant credits reviewed individually. If no allocation can be determined for such credits on an individual basis, they shall be provided for as part of an appropriate pool.

•

All other loans that are not included by the credit grading system in the population of loans reviewed individually, but are delinquent or are classified or designated special mention (e.g., pools of smaller delinquent, special mention and classified commercial and industrial, real estate loans).

•

Homogenous loans that have not been reviewed individually, or are not delinquent, classified, or designated as special mention (e.g., pools of real estate mortgages).

•

All other loans that have not been considered or provided for elsewhere (e.g., pools of commercial and industrial loans that have not been reviewed, classified, or designated special mention, standby letters of credit, and other off-balance sheet commitments to lend).

Although Management believes the level of the allowance at September 30, 2007 is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio, a decline in the regional economy may result in increasing losses that cannot reasonably be predicted at this time. For further information regarding the allowance for loan losses, see “Financial Condition—Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Available for Sale Securities

SFAS 115 requires that available for sale securities be carried at fair value. The Company believes this is a “critical accounting estimate” in that the fair value of a security is based on quoted market prices or if quoted market prices are not available, fair values are extrapolated from the quoted prices of similar instruments. Adjustments to the fair value of available for sale securities impact the consolidated financial statements by increasing or decreasing assets and stockholders’ equity.

Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred income taxes reflect the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the reported amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. The Company uses an estimate of future earnings to support our position that the benefit of our deferred tax assets will be realized. If future income should prove non-existent or less than the amount of the deferred tax assets within the tax years to which they may be applied, the asset may not be realized and net income will be reduced.

Financial Condition

At September 30, 2007, total assets were $279.9 million compared to $252.4 million at December 31, 2006, resulting in a $27.5 million or 10.9% increase in total assets over the nine-month period. Over this same nine-month period, net loans receivable increased by $37.2 million or 18.3%, investment securities available for sale and interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions decreased by $0.4 million or 2.5% and cash and cash equivalents decreased by $7.7 million or 37.6%. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, net loans receivable comprised 85.8% and 80.4%, respectively, of total assets and represented 104.4% and 89.6%, respectively, of deposits.

Loan Portfolio

The increase in loans receivable from year-end 2006 to September 30, 2007 is primarily the result of an increase in residential real estate loans, commercial real estate loans, loans secured by vacant land and commercial loans. Non-construction real estate loans are primarily secured by commercial real estate properties. From year-end 2006, gross loans increased by $37.3 million to $244.4

million at September 30, 2007. The largest loan category at September 30, 2007 is real estate loans—excluding construction loans—which constitutes 57.4% of gross loans. The next largest loan concentrations are commercial loans (20.5% of gross loans) secured by non-real estate assets or made on an unsecured basis and construction loans (20.1% of gross loans). Loans to consumers (that are not secured by real estate), including vehicle and unsecured personal loans, make up the smallest category of loans held by the Company (2.0% of gross loans). With the exception of loans to Native American entities, a majority of the Company’s loans are made to borrowers residing, or doing business, within the Coachella Valley and surrounding area. Generally, collateral securing real estate loans, with the exception of loans made to Native American entities is located within the Coachella Valley. Loans, and related collateral, if any, to Native American related entities are generally located throughout the State of California and, to a lesser extent, other Western States.

As a market niche, the Company has strategically identified lending to Native American individuals, tribal governments, and tribal related entities. It is the Company’s general policy to obtain a limited waiver of sovereign immunity to protect collateral or an income stream when collateral or a business is located on a reservation or the business is operated by a Native American government or related entity. Total loans to Native American individuals, governments and related entities at September 30, 2007 total $26.0 million, or 10.7% of gross loans, many of which are guaranteed by the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs.

The composition of the Company’s loan portfolio at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 is set forth below:

The weighted average interest rate on the loan portfolio at September 30, 2007, is 8.31%. At September 30, 2007, eighty-seven percent (87%) or $212.4 million of loan principal balances incorporate variable rate terms that reference an interest rate index such as Prime Rate, or a United States Treasury instrument. The majority of variable rate loans are indexed to Prime Rate. Over half of all variable rate loans incorporate terms which require the interest rate to change at least semiannually (subject to interest rate ceilings, floors and periodic caps) or sooner with about forty percent of adjustable rate loans undergoing an interest rate change annually.

The principal balance outstanding of fixed rate loans with maturity dates five years or more into the future total approximately $11.9 million and $7.1 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Commercial Real Estate Loans

In December 2006, the OCC, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; and FDIC (the “Agencies”) issued final joint Guidance on Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate Lending, Sound Risk Management Practices (the “Guidance”). This Guidance applies to national banks and state chartered banks and was developed to reinforce sound risk management practices for institutions with high and increasing concentrations of commercial real estate loans on their balance sheets.

For purposes of this Guidance, commercial real estate (CRE) loans are exposures secured by raw land, land development and construction (including 1-4 family residential construction, multi-family property, and nonresidential property) where the primary or significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property.

The Guidance sets forth the following criteria to determine whether a concentration in CRE lending warrants the use of heightened risk management practices: (i) total loans for construction, land development, and other land represent one hundred percent (100%) or more of the Bank’s total capital; or (ii) total loan secured by multifamily proprieties, nonresidential properties, construction, land development, and other land represents three hundred percent (300%) or more of total capital.

Banks exceeding the threshold would be deemed to have a concentration in CRE loans and should have heightened risk management practices appropriate to the degree of CRE concentration risk of these loans in their portfolios and consistent with the Guidance. The Agencies have excluded loans secured by owner-occupied properties from the CRE definition because their risk profiles are less influenced by the condition of the general CRE market.

At September 30, 2007, the Company exceeded the Guidance threshold for construction and land loans with these loan balances comprising 226% of total capital. The Company’s ratio of total CRE loans to total capital was 333% at September 30, 2007 and also exceeded the Guidance threshold at that date. The Company believes it has adequate risk management practices in place in that it:

has secured United States Government guarantees on certain loans to mitigate potential losses, and

has instituted an extensive funds control process to disburse construction loan proceeds, and

has capital levels in excess of the well-capitalized amounts required by federal banking authorities to support possible future losses, and

has experienced no significant historical CRE loan charge-offs since inception of the Company,

has modified its minimum underwriting standards in response to slower growth of real estate values and a general slowing in the local and national economies, and,

has instituted a reporting process to the Board of Directors to monitor concentrations.

The table on the following page sets forth the amount of total loans outstanding as of September 30, 2007 for real estate loans by sub category and occupancy type.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the ordinary course of business, the Company provides various forms of credit facilities to meet the future financing needs of its clients. These commitments to provide credit represent an obligation of the Company to borrowers, which is not represented within the Company’s balance sheets. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had $52.8 million and $60.4 million, respectively, of off-balance sheet commitments to fund certain loans. The composition of unfunded off-balance sheet loan commitments at September 30, 2007 is 28.9% undisbursed construction loans funds, 53.6% unused commercial lines of credit, 6.8% unused home equity lines of credit, and 10.7% obligations under letters of credit. These commitments represent a credit risk and potential future obligation of the Company.

The effect on the Company’s revenues, expenses, cash flows and liquidity from the unused portion of loan commitments to provide credit cannot be reasonably predicted because there is no assurance that the lines of credit or other commitments will ever be used. However, unfunded commitments related to undisbursed construction loans are generally predictable in that disbursements on these loan types are used to facilitate the completion of construction of residential or commercial properties.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets are comprised of loans on non-accrual status, loans restructured where the terms of repayment have been renegotiated resulting in a reduction or deferral of interest or principal, and other real estate owned (“OREO”). Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when they become 90 days past due unless Management believes the loan is adequately collateralized and is in the process of collection. Loans may be restructured by Management when a borrower has experienced some change in financial status, causing an inability to meet the original repayment terms, and where the Company believes the borrower will eventually overcome those circumstances and repay the loan in full. OREO consists of properties acquired by foreclosure or similar means that Management intends to offer for sale.

Management’s classification of a loan as non-accrual is an indication that there is reasonable doubt as to the full collectability of principal or interest on the loan; at this point, the Company stops recognizing income from the interest on the loan and may provide an allowance for uncollected interest that had been accrued but unpaid if it is determined uncollectible or the collateral is inadequate to support such accrued interest amount. These loans may or may not be collateralized, but collection efforts are pursued.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans was 1.41% at September 30, 2007 and 1.65% at December 31, 2006.

At September 30, 2007, the outstanding principal balance of nonaccrual loans totaled $1.4 million which consisted of four individual loans: a commercial loan secured by equipment - outstanding principal balance $550,000, a residential real estate loan - outstanding principal balance $222,000, a loan secured by unimproved land - outstanding principal balance $454,000 and a business loan - outstanding principal balance $223,000 – which is 90% guaranteed by the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the collateral securing the unimproved land loan was foreclosed and the Company obtained title to the property. Management believes the collateral values, less amounts allocated from the allowance for loan losses specifically identified for these loans and considering the loan guarantees, is sufficient to repay the debt without a significant loss.

One large residential real estate loan (outstanding principal balance of $1.5 million) was accounted for on a nonaccrual basis and was adversely classified at both March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 due to the borrower’s inability to make timely periodic payments. This one loan made up for a substantial portion of nonaccrual loans and adversely classified loans at those dates. During the second quarter 2007, the borrower paid all delinquent interest payments due and the loan was returned to an accrual status. However, this loan remained adversely classified as of September 30, 2007. During the third quarter, the borrower continued to make timely loan payments.

The table below sets forth non-performing assets as of September 30, 2007, and 2006 and December 31, 2006, as well as adversely classified loans as of these dates. Loans classified as nonperforming may also be adversely classified, resulting in the principal balance reported in both categories.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level it considers adequate to cover the inherent risk of loss associated with its loan portfolio under prevailing economic conditions. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, Management takes into consideration growth trends in the portfolio, examination by financial institution supervisory authorities, prior loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, experience of the Company’s lending staff, concentrations of credit risk, delinquency trends, general economic conditions, the interest rate environment, and internal and external credit reviews.

The Company assesses the adequacy of the allowance on a monthly basis. This assessment is comprised of: (i) reviewing the adversely classified loans; (ii) estimating the loss potential for adversely classified loans; and (iii) applying a risk factor to segregate loan portfolios that have similar risk characteristics.

To determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, Management employs a two-dimensional model that segregates loans into categories with similar risk profiles. Major loan categories include speculative construction and land loans, owner-occupied residential construction loans, residential and commercial real estate loans, commercial loans, and consumer loans. Loan balances are further segregated into outstanding principal balance and unfunded commitment amounts. To address the risk associated with certain loans, Risk Classes are established to identify the level of risk posed by a particular loan or group of loans. Risk Classes are (in order from least to greatest risk) Exceptional, Very Good, Satisfactory, Acceptable, Watch/Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss. For loans adversely classified (Substandard, Doubtful or Loss), Management estimates a specific allowance amount. For loans that are not adversely classified, a Risk Factor is applied to each loan category for each Risk Class. As the risk of loss increases, the associated Risk Factor increases accordingly.

The process of providing for loan losses involves judgmental discretion, and eventual losses may therefore differ from even the most recent estimates. Due to these limitations, the Company assumes that there are losses inherent in the current loan portfolio which will be sustained, but have not yet been identified. The Company therefore attempts to maintain the allowance at an amount sufficient to cover such unknown but inherent losses.

There can be no assurance that future economic or other factors will not adversely affect borrowers, or collateral securing loans, or that the Company’s asset quality may not deteriorate through rapid growth, failure to identify and monitor potential problem loans or for other reasons, thereby causing increases to the allowance.

The table below summarizes the nine-months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the year ended December 31, 2006, loan balances at the end of such periods and the daily average balances for the respective periods; changes in the allowance for loan losses arising from loans charged off, recoveries on loans previously charged off, additions to the allowance which have been charged against earnings, and certain ratios related to the allowance for loan losses.

The Company intends to continue to concentrate the majority of its earning assets in commercial and real estate loans. In all forms of lending there are inherent risks. Further, the Company does not engage in subprime lending.

While the Company believes that its underwriting criteria are prudent, outside factors, such as recession in Southern California in the early 1990’s, the Los Angeles earthquake of 1994, or slowdown in the Southern California economy in line with the slowdown immediately following the September 11 terrorist attacks, could adversely impact credit quality. A repeat of these types of events could cause deterioration in the Company’s loan portfolio. Further, the secondary mortgage markets are currently experiencing unprecedented disruptions resulting from reduced investor demand for mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities which could negatively impact the Southern California economy and cause deterioration in the Company’s loan portfolio.

The Company attempts to mitigate collection problems by supporting its loans by collateral. The Company also utilizes outside credit review processes to independently monitor loan quality. A loan sample group is reviewed periodically at which time new loans, large loans and delinquent loans receive special attention. The use of the independent credit review process provides the Company

with an objective review of Management’s identification of risk classification. To supplement Management’s internal risk classification system, loans criticized during the credit review process or in conjunction with a regulatory examination, are downgraded with appropriate allowances added, if needed.

Although Management believes the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2007 is adequate to absorb losses from known and inherent risks in the portfolio, no assurance can be given that economic conditions, which adversely affect the Company’s service areas or other circumstances, will not result in increased losses in the loan portfolio in the future.

Investment Security and Interest Bearing Deposits at Other Financial Institutions

The fair value of the investment security portfolio available for sale at September 30, 2007 is $15.8 million with a 4.85% yield (5.24% tax equivalent yield). This compares to a fair value of $14.3 million at December 31, 2006 with a 3.65% yield. (4.08% tax equivalent yield) The gross unrealized loss on available for sale investment securities at September 30, 2007 is $69,000 or 0.4% of amortized cost.

During the first nine months of 2007, principal repayments and maturities of investment securities available for sale totaled $7.0 million and purchases of investment securities totaled $8.5 million. The yield on the investment portfolio increased from year-end 2006 to September 2007 due primarily to new security purchases having higher yields than securities which matured or called during the period. During 2006, the Company initiated a plan to purchase income tax-free debt securities to take advantage of their income tax advantaged status. The portfolio of tax-free securities has a 6.8 years average life compared to an average life of approximately 2.3 years for the entire investment portfolio.

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of the Company’s available for sale investment security portfolio at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The Company has no securities classified as held to maturity or trading.

Deposits

Total deposits at September 30, 2007 were $230.0 million compared to $226.4 million at December 31, 2006. The largest category of deposit accounts at September 30, 2007, is savings and money market accounts which make up 36.3% of total deposits. Non-interest bearing demand deposits were 31.0% of total deposits at September 30, 2007 compared to 39.8% at December 31, 2006. The demand deposit account balances of a single business depositor declined by $7.5 million during the first quarter of 2007 which accounted for about one-third of the decline in total demand deposits in 2007. An increase in market deposit interest rates led to a movement of deposits from non-interest bearing demand to savings and money market accounts. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the weighted average term to maturity of certificate of deposits was 7.1 months and 6.1 months, respectively. The weighted average interest rates paid on time deposits was 4.80% and 4.52% at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Deposits of Native American entities totaled $21.7 million and $19.2 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. These deposits represent 9.4% and 8.5%, respectively, of total deposits.

The table below reflects the major categories of deposits as a percentage of total deposits as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Results of Operations

The net earnings during the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $949,000 or $0.39 per diluted share compared to net earnings of $1,078,000 or $0.45 per diluted share for the same quarter in 2006. Lower net earnings in the quarter ending September 30, 2007 are primarily attributable to (i) a 0.7% decrease in net interest income, and (ii) a 17.0% decrease in noninterest income, offset by (iii) a 0.8% decrease in noninterest expense.

The net earnings during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 were $3,098,000 or $1.28 per diluted share compared to net earnings of $3,087,000 or $1.28 per diluted share for the same quarter in 2006. Higher net earnings in the nine months ending September 30, 2007 are primarily attributable to (i) a 3.2% increase in net interest income, offset by (ii) a 13.8% decrease in non-interest income, and (iii) a 0.9% increase in non-interest expense.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income, the principal source of earnings, represents the difference between interest and fees earned from lending and investing activities and the interest paid on deposits used to fund those activities. Variations in the pricing, volume, and mix of loans, investments and deposits and their relative sensitivity to movements in interest rates influence net interest income.

The yield earned on interest earning assets for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was 8.46% compared to 8.35% for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2007 was 3.92% compared to 3.26% for the third quarter of 2006. The net interest margin or net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006 was 5.91% and 6.44%, respectively.

The yield earned on interest earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was 8.53% compared to 8.12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the nine month period of 2007 was 3.83% compared to 2.85% for the same period of 2006. The net interest margin or net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was 6.15 % and 6.45%, respectively.

Liability interest costs rising more rapidly then asset yields was the primary factor accounting for the reduction in the net interest margin for both the quarter and nine month period. Yields on federal funds sold and investment securities generally increased from 2006 to 2007 while loan yields generally declined during the period. Higher interest costs on deposit accounts were attributable to (i) larger account balances in 2007, (ii) higher interest rates paid in 2007, and (iii) a shift in the composition of the deposit accounts portfolio from no interest cost demand deposit accounts to higher interest bearing cost deposits. Additionally, the action of the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank to decrease the fed funds rate 50 basis points on September 18, 2007 from 5.25% to 4.75% – and the subsequent reduction the prime lending rate, which is used to recalculate loan interest rates, – puts

additional pressure on the Company’s interest earning asset yield. Although interest costs are also expected to decline, the impact is expected to be more gradual as certificates of deposit mature. Additionally, increased competition for deposits from both bank and non-bank competitors have resulted in higher interest rates being paid on deposit accounts. For additional information about Interest Rate Risk, see Asset Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity.

The Rate Volume Analysis tables set forth the changes in net interest income and disaggregates the effects that volume, or average balances, and interest rates have on the Company’s interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, the decrease in net interest income over the same prior year period is primarily attributable to higher interest rates paid on deposit account, an increase in the volume of interest bearing liabilities and decreases in the volume of fed funds sold and investment securities, offset by the volume growth within the loan portfolio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the increase in net interest income over the same prior year period is primarily attributable to the volume growth within the loan portfolio offset by decreases in the volume of fed funds sold and investment securities and higher interest rates paid on deposit account and an increase in the volume of interest bearing liabilities.

The tables set forth below present the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the increase or decrease related to: (i) changes in balances, and (ii) changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liability, information is provided on changes attributable to: (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by the old rate), and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume).

Non-interest income

Non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 totaled $599,000 compared to $722,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, non-interest income totaled $1,959,000 and $2,273,000, respectively. Service charges and automated teller machine fees increased during both the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 when compared to the same periods in 2006. Two new ATM servicing relationships, the expansion of one other ATM relationship, offset by three ATM processing relationships which were discontinued in 2006, combined with increased transaction processing volumes at other ATM serving locations account for the increase in ATM fees for both the third quarter and nine-month period. Increases in deposit account related service charges and fee revenues are attributable to a greater number of transaction accounts serviced in 2007, in part due to the new Palm Desert-Desert Business Park branch which opened in April 2006. Loan related fees and lease administration fees accounted for a majority of the decline in non-interest income for the third quarter and the nine-month period. Lower current year loan related fees and lease administration fees are directly related to real estate transaction volume which has declined significantly in 2007.

Loan related fees are made up of two primary revenue drivers: mortgage banking fees and fees earned on originating certain government guaranteed loans, primarily Section 184 loan fees as discussed below. Mortgage banking activity generated fee revenues of $16,300 during the third quarter of 2007 compared to $38,800 generated during the third quarter of the prior year. For the nine-month periods in 2007 and 2006, mortgage banking fees were $76,100 and $152,600, respectively. Higher interest rates and a greater uncertainty about the credit markets in 2007, combined with lower real estate values and transaction volume occurring in the local marketplace contributed to the decline in mortgage banking revenues in 2007 from the prior year levels.

In 2005, the Company expanded its tribal services division by offering loans pursuant to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Indian Home Loan Guarantee Program (Section 184 loans). Congress established this program in 1994 and it was designed to offer home ownership, property rehabilitation, and new construction opportunities for eligible Native American tribes, Native American authorities, and Native American individuals. To qualify for a loan under this program, borrowers and properties must meet pre-established criteria. The Company acts as a broker in originating HUD Section 184 loans in fifteen Western states. The Company does not retain or service loans originated under this program. Section 184 fees were $78,600 and $68,800 for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $246,300 and $214,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 respectively.

In addition to mortgage banking and Section 184 fees, the Company also generates loan related fees for loan servicing activities on loan participations sold to others and servicing fees derived from certain loans guaranteed by the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

Non-interest Expense

For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 noninterest expenses totaled $2,592,000 and $2,612,000, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 non-interest expenses totaled $7,804,000 and $7,733,000, respectively. Increases in non-interest expenses for the nine months are primarily attributed to expansion of facilities and equipment, and additional personnel employed to service the Company’s larger loan/deposit portfolios and products, offset by a decrease in the annual incentive accrual. Increased expense for facilities, equipment and personnel include expenses related to the new Palm Desert branch, which opened in the first quarter 2006. Non-interest expenses for this new branch were $455,500 for the first nine months of 2007 compared to $377,400 for the first nine months of 2006. Also contributing to higher general and administrative expenses in 2007 are (i) personnel additions in the Tribal Services division, (ii) higher FDIC insurance assessments due to an increase in FDIC insurance premiums effective January 2007, and (iii) higher professional fees incurred for the implementation of certain new regulations such as, but not limited to, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

The table below reflects noninterest income, noninterest expense, and net noninterest expense.

Provision for Loan Losses

For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the provision for loan losses the Company charged against current period earnings was $210,000 compared to $100,000 for the prior year’s same quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the provision for loan losses charged against earnings was $410,000 and $425,000, respectively. The composition of its loan portfolio has remained relatively stable from year-end 2006 to September 2007. Local and national real estate markets slowed in 2007 as evidenced by a decline in real estate valuations, longer periods of time to sell properties, increases in foreclosures and a reduction in the number of real estate sales. However, Management deems the level of its allowance for loan losses to be adequate and the provision charged against current period earnings to be adequate as well.

Provisions for loan losses are made monthly in anticipation of credit risks, which are inherent in the business of making loans. The Company sets aside an allowance for loan losses through charges to earnings. The charges are reflected in the income statement as provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses represents the amount charged against current period earnings to achieve an allowance for loan losses that in Management’s judgment is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. The procedures for monitoring the adequacy of the allowance, as well as detailed information concerning the allowance itself, are included above under “Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Liquidity

At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 the Company had 10.2% and 14.6%, respectively, of total assets in cash and cash equivalents, federal funds sold, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions and investment securities. Management deems this level of liquidity, combined with borrowing capacity, sufficient to support and meet the immediate and anticipated cash needs of the Company. The Company’s sources of liquidity include deposits inflows, repayments of loans and securities, sales/calls/maturities of investment securities, reduction in Federal Funds sold, and borrowing funds from correspondent banks, the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window, the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB-SF), or through repurchase agreement lines established. The Company’s federal funds line of credit at correspondent banks is $13.0 million. In addition, as a member of the FHLB-SF, the Company may borrow funds and up to 25% of its assets. Borrowing from the FHLB-SF must be collateralized by either qualified loans or investment securities. Uses of liquidity include funding loans, deposit outflows and the purchase of investment securities and fixed assets.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $648,000 and $760,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 the provision for income taxes was $2,114,000 and $2,140,000, respectively. The decrease in the income tax provision is commensurate with the change in the combined effective state and federal income tax rate. The Company’s effective tax rate was 40.6% and 41.3% for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively, and 40.6% and 40.9% for the first nine months of 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Asset Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity

Interest Rate Risk

The principal objective of interest rate risk management is to manage the financial components of the Company’s assets and liabilities so as to optimize net income under varying interest rate environments. The focus of this process (often referred to as “asset/liability management”) is the development, analysis, implementation and monitoring of earnings enhancement strategies that provide stable earnings and capital levels during periods of changing interest rates.

The Company manages the balance between rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities being repriced in any given period with the objective of stabilizing net interest income during periods of fluctuating interest rates. The Company considers its rate-sensitive assets to be those which either contain a provision to adjust the interest rate periodically or mature within one year. These assets include certain loans, certain investment securities and federal funds sold. Rate-sensitive liabilities are those which allow for periodic interest rate changes and include time certificates, certain savings and interest-bearing demand deposits. The difference between the aggregate amount of assets and liabilities that are repricing at various time frames is called the interest rate sensitivity “gap.” Generally, if repricing assets exceed repricing liabilities in any given time period the Company would be deemed to be “asset–sensitive” for that period. If repricing liabilities exceed repricing assets in a given time period the Company would be deemed to be “liability-sensitive” for that period. The Company intends to seek to maintain a balanced position over the period of one year in which it has no significant asset or liability sensitivity to ensure net interest margin stability in times of volatile interest rates. This will be accomplished by maintaining a significant level of loans and deposits available for repricing within one year.

The change in net interest income may not always follow the general expectations of an “asset-sensitive” or “liability-sensitive” balance sheet during periods of changing interest rates. This possibility results from interest rates earned or paid changing by differing increments and at different time intervals for each type of interest-sensitive asset and liability.

Net interest income simulation . As of September 30, 2007, the Company used a simulation model to measure the estimated changes in net interest income that would result over the next 12 months from increasing and decreasing interest rates. This model is an interest rate management tool and the results are not necessarily an indication of our future net interest income. This model has inherent limitations and these results are based on a given set of rate changes and assumptions at one point in time. The model assumes no growth in either the Company’s interest-sensitive assets or liabilities over the next 12 months; therefore, the results reflect an interest rate shock to a static balance sheet.

This analysis calculates the difference between net interest income forecasted using both increasing and decreasing interest rate scenarios and net interest income forecasted using a base market interest rate. In order to arrive at the base case, the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2007 was extended one year and any assets and liabilities that would contractually reprice or mature during that period were repriced using the products’ pricing as of September 30, 2007. Changes that may vary significantly from these assumptions include loan and deposit growth or contraction, changes in the mix of earning assets or funding sources, and future asset/liability management decisions, all of which may have significant effects on the Company’s net interest income.

The simulation results indicate the Company’s interest rate risk position was asset sensitive as the simulated impact of an upward movement in interest rates would result in increases in net interest income over the next 12 month period while a downward movement in interest rates would result in a decrease in net interest income over the next 12 months.

Market Value of Equity

The Company measures the impact of market interest rate changes on the net present value of estimated cash flows from its assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items, defined as market value of equity, using a simulation model. This simulation model assesses the changes in the market value of the Company’s interest-sensitive financial instruments that would occur in response to an immediate and sustained increase or decrease in market rates of 50, 100, 150 and 200 basis points. This analysis assigns significant value to noninterest-bearing deposit balances. The projections are by their nature forward-looking and therefore inherently uncertain, and include various assumptions regarding cash flows and interest rates. This model in an interest rate risk management tool and the results are not necessarily an indication of the Company’s actual future results. Actual results may vary significantly from model results. Loan prepayments and deposit attrition, changes in the mix of earning assets or funding sources, and future asset/liability management decisions, among others, may vary significantly from our assumptions.

The results of the market value of equity model indicate that an increase in interest rates would decrease the Company’s market value of equity from the base case while a decrease in interest rates would increase the market value of equity.

Gap Analysis

As part of the interest rate management process, the Company uses a gap analysis. A gap analysis provides information about the volume and repricing characteristics and relationship between the amounts of interest-sensitive assets and interest-bearing liabilities at a particular point in time. An effective interest rate strategy attempts to match the volume of interest-sensitive assets and interest-bearing liabilities repricing over different time intervals. The table on the next page illustrates the volume and repricing characteristics of the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2007 over the indicated time intervals.

Capital Resources and Adequacy

Shareholders’ equity was $27.9 million or 9.98% of total assets at September 30, 2007. The ratio of shareholders’ equity to total assets at December 31, 2006 was 9.68%. The increase in the equity to asset ratio is due to capital growth (14.4%) outpacing asset growth (10.9%). The Bank’s capital level exceeded the regulatory defined minimum capital requirement of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital to total assets and/or risk-weighted assets at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Furthermore, all capital ratios exceed the regulatory minimum requirements for a “Well Capitalized” institution. The Prompt Corrective Action Guidelines to the FDIC Improvement Act (“FDICIA”) requires a “Well Capitalized” financial institution to maintain a Leverage Capital Ratio of 5.0% or greater; a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 6% or greater; and a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 10.0% or greater, provided that such institution is not subject to a regulatory order, agreement or directive to meet and maintain a specified capital level.

The Bank’s capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 are presented in the following table:

The Company is a “small bank holding company” under the Federal Reserve Board’s guidelines, and thus qualifies for an exemption from the consolidated risk-based and leverage capital adequacy guidelines applicable to bank holding companies with assets of $500 million or more. However, while not required to do so under the Federal Reserve Board’s capital adequacy guidelines, the Company still maintained levels of capital on a consolidated basis which qualified it as “well capitalized” as of September 30, 2007.
