Nevertheless, as a relationship bank, we are well-positioned to withstand such economic disturbance, continue our focus on successfully executing our long-term strategies and serving our customers.”
Mr. Kim continued, “In addition to our strong balance sheet growth, our credit quality remains strong, and capital level remains robust, supporting the needs of our borrowers while ensuring the safety and soundness of the bank. Our outlook for the year remains positive as our organic growth continues to outpace our peer group. While we closely monitor the current geopolitical environment, we are well positioned to grow our balance sheet, operate efficiently, expand our branch network, and increase profitability and shareholders’ value.”

Other Interest-Earning Assets.

Interest-Bearing Deposits. The decreases in average cost for the current quarter compared with the previous and year-ago quarters were primarily due to a decrease in market rates.

Total noninterest expense
$14,474 $13,894 4.2 %$16,352 (11.5)%
Salaries and Employee Benefits. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to increases in bonus and vacation accruals, and other employee benefits, partially offset by a decrease in salaries. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a decrease in salaries and an increase in direct loan origination cost, which offsets and defers the recognition of salaries and benefits expense, partially offset by an increase in bonus accrual. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 257, 262 and 272 as of March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
Professional Fees. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was due to a higher internal audit fees for the previous quarter as a part of the year-end process. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to other professional fees for the year-ago quarter related to a core system conversion that was completed in April 2024.
Marketing and Business Promotion. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous was primarily due to year-end promotions during the previous quarter. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a decrease in advertising.
Data Processing. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to a one-time new relationship credit recognized during the previous quarter from the core system conversion completed in April 2024. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a decrease in overall service charges after the core system conversion.
Other Expense. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to an impairment on operating lease assets of $146 thousand for a sublease contract and recognition of contingent liabilities for legal settlements of $183 thousand. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the year-ago quarter was primarily due to a termination charge for the legacy core system of $508 thousand and an expense of $815 thousand for a reimbursement for an SBA loan guarantee previously paid by the SBA on a loan originated in 2014 that subsequently defaulted and was ultimately determined to be ineligible for the SBA guaranty during the year-ago quarter, partially offset by the impairment on operating lease assets and contingent liabilities for legal settlements.

The increase in loans held-for-sale for the current quarter was primarily due to new funding of $22.5 million, partially offset by sales of $16.6 million and pay-downs of $44 thousand.

Return on average tangible common equity, tangible common equity per common share and tangible common equity to total assets ratios
The Company's TCE is calculated by subtracting preferred stock from shareholders’ equity. The Company had no intangible assets for the presented periods. Return on average TCE, TCE per common share, and TCE to total assets constitute supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are used by management in its analysis of the Company's performance. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies. The following tables provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.
