Quarterly Report
General
As TriCo Bancshares (referred to in this report as "we", "our" or the "Company") has not commenced any business operations independent of Tri Counties Bank (the "Bank"), the following discussion pertains primarily to the Bank. Average balances, including such balances used in calculating certain financial ratios, are generally comprised of average daily balances for the Company. Within Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, interest income and net interest income are generally presented on a fully tax-equivalent (FTE) basis. The presentation of interest income and net interest income on a FTE basis is a common practice within the banking industry. Interest income and net interest income are shown on a non-FTE basis in the Part I - Financial Information section of this Form 10-Q, and a reconciliation of the FTE and non-FTE presentations is provided below in the discussion of net interest income.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those that materially affect the consolidated financial statements and are related to the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, investments, mortgage servicing rights, fair value measurements, retirement plans, acquired loans, indemnification asset and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company's policies related to estimates can be found in Note 1 in the consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of this report.
As the Company has not commenced any business operations independent of the Bank, the following discussion pertains primarily to the Bank. Average balances, including balances used in calculating certain financial ratios, are generally comprised of average daily balances for the Company. Within Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, certain performance measures including interest income, net interest income, net interest yield, and efficiency ratio are generally presented on a fully tax-equivalent (FTE) basis. The Company believes the use of these non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) measures provides additional clarity in assessing its results.
On September 23, 2011, the California Department of Financial Institutions closed Citizens Bank of Northern California ("Citizens"), Nevada City, California and appointed the FDIC as receiver. That same date, the Bank assumed the banking operations of Citizens from the FDIC under a whole bank purchase and assumption agreement without loss sharing. With this agreement, the Bank added seven traditional bank branches including two in Grass Valley, and one in each of Nevada City, Penn Valley, Lake of the Pines, Truckee, and Auburn, California. This acquisition is consistent with the Bank's community banking expansion strategy and provides further opportunity to fill in the Bank's market presence in the Northern California market. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Bank consolidated the operations of Citizens' Auburn branch with the Bank's existing Auburn branch.
On May 28, 2010, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency closed Granite Community Bank ("Granite"), Granite Bay, California and appointed the FDIC as receiver. That same date, the Bank assumed the banking operations of Granite from the FDIC under a whole bank purchase and assumption agreement with loss sharing. Under the terms of the loss sharing agreement, the FDIC will cover a substantial portion of any future losses on loans, related unfunded loan commitments, other real estate owned (OREO)/foreclosed assets and accrued interest on loans for up to 90 days. The FDIC will absorb 80% of losses and share in 80% of loss recoveries on the covered assets acquired from Granite. The loss sharing arrangements for non-single family residential and single family residential loans are in effect for 5 years and 10 years, respectively, and the loss recovery provisions are in effect for 8 years and 10 years, respectively, from the acquisition date. With this agreement, the Bank added one traditional bank branch in each of Granite Bay and Auburn, California. This acquisition is consistent with the Bank's community banking expansion strategy and provides further opportunity to fill in the Bank's market presence in the greater Sacramento, California market.
The Company refers to loans and foreclosed assets that are covered by loss sharing agreements as "covered loans" and "covered foreclosed assets", respectively. In addition, the Company refers to loans purchased or obtained in a business combination as "purchased credit impaired" (PCI) loans, or "purchased non-credit impaired" (PNCI) loans. The Company refers to loans that it originates as "Originated" loans. Additional information regarding the Citizens and Granite Bank acquisitions can be found in Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of this report. Additional information regarding the definitions and accounting for originated, PNCI and PCI loans can be found in Notes 1, 2, 4 and 5 in the consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of this report, and under the heading Asset Quality and Non-Performing Assets below.
Geographical Descriptions
For the purpose of describing the geographical location of the Company's loans, the Company has defined northern California as that area of California north of, and including, Stockton; central California as that area of the State south of Stockton, to and including, Bakersfield; and southern California as that area of the State south of Bakersfield.
Overview
The following discussion and analysis is designed to provide a better understanding of the significant changes and trends related to the Company and the Bank's financial condition, operating results, asset and liability management, liquidity and capital resources and should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the Notes thereto located at Item 1 of this report.

Provision for Loan Losses
The Company provided $532,000 for loan losses in the third quarter of 2012 versus $3,371,000 in the second quarter of 2012 and $5,069,000 in the third quarter of 2011. Included in the provision for loan losses during the quarter ended September 30, 2012, was $529,000 related to Citizens loans. The allowance for loan losses decreased $1,154,000 from $45,849,000 at June 30, 2012 to $44,146,000 at September 30, 2012. The decrease in provision for loan losses during the third quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2012 was primarily the result of improvement in collateral values and estimated cash flows related to nonperforming and purchased credit impaired loans that resulted in a reduction in the allowance for loan losses for those loans. This reduction in allowance for loan losses due to improved collateral values and estimated cash flows, combined with an overall reduction in nonperforming loans, led to a decrease in the quarterly provision for loan losses to its lowest level since the second quarter of 2007. See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of this report, and the discussion of asset quality and nonperforming assets below, for more information about the Company's provision for loan losses and the allowance for loan losses.
The Company provided $3,371,000 for loan losses in the second quarter of 2012 versus $3,996,000 in the first quarter of 2012 and $7,367,000 in the second quarter of 2011. Included in the provision for loan losses during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, was $281,000 related to Citizens loans. The allowance for loan losses increased $397,000 from $45,452,000 at March 31, 2012 to $45,849,000 at June 30, 2012. The decrease in provision for loan losses during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2012 was primarily the result of a decrease in nonperforming Originated loans and a decrease in net loan charge offs.
The Company provided $3,996,000 for loan losses in the first quarter of 2012 versus $5,429,000 in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $7,001,000 in the first quarter of 2011. In accordance with industry guidance, related to real estate 1-4 family junior lien mortgages, issued by bank regulators during the first quarter of 2012, $6,541,000 of performing junior liens were reclassified from a Pass rating to a rating of Special Mention due to concerns regarding the performance of the associated priority liens. This reclassification resulted in additional provisions for loan losses of $1,596,000. Also included in the provision for loan losses during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, was $1,467,000 related to Citizens loans. The allowance for loan losses decreased $462,000 from $45,914,000 at December 31, 2011 to $45,452,000 at March 31, 2012. The decreases in provision for loan losses and in the allowance for loan losses during the first quarter of 2012 were primarily the result of a decrease in nonperforming loans that was partially offset by the increased provision related to real estate 1-4 family junior lien mortgages and the provision related to Citizens loans noted above.
Management re-evaluates the loss ratios and assumptions of its Originated and PNCI loan portfolios and makes changes as appropriate based upon, among other things, changes in loss rates experienced, collateral support for underlying loans, changes and trends in the economy, and changes in the loan mix. Management also re-evaluates expected cash flows for its PCI loan portfolio quarterly and makes changes as appropriate based upon, among other things, changes in loan repayment experience, changes in loss rates experienced, and collateral support for underlying loans.
The provision for loan losses related to Originated and PNCI loans is based on management's evaluation of inherent risks in these loan portfolios and a corresponding analysis of the allowance for loan losses. The provision for loan losses related to PCI loan portfolio is based on changes in estimated cash flows expected to be collected on PCI loans. Additional discussion on loan quality, our procedures to measure loan impairment, and the allowance for loan losses is provided under the heading Asset Quality and Non-Performing Assets below.
