  • Annual 2016 Report
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTEGRITY OWNERSHIP RESPECT EXCELLENCE TEAMWORK Dear Shareholders & Friends The year 2016 was an exciting period of growth and change for Bank of Commerce Holdings (BOCH). During the first quarter, we completed the acquisition of five offices from Bank of America which brought almost $150 million of new low cost deposits to our company. Throughout the entire year our real estate, commercial, consumer and SBA sales teams continued to successfully add significant loan and deposit totals to our balance sheet. For the year, loans increased $88 million (12%) and deposits increased $201 million (25%). As many of you already know, the liquidity provided by our branch acquisition was used to reconfigure our balance sheet. We were able to eliminate our approximately $100 million reliance on brokered and wholesale funding sources and we cancelled the associated interest rate hedge contract which would have been increasingly costly into the future. For the first time in many years we funded all of our loan growth with traditional core deposits. The strategic shift from wholesale funding to traditional core funding was costly, which is reflected in our earnings for the year of $5.3 million ($0.39 per share), a 37% decline from the prior year. We firmly believe that it was the correct decision and is a key component for executing on our future corporate initiatives. The company has made many advances over the past 36 months. With a return to relying on traditional funding sources combined with severing the tie to our former mortgage subsidiary (2014), the redemption of $20 million SBLF preferred stock (2015), the growth of our SBA division, the hiring of an expanded sales force in Sacramento and reductions in nonperforming assets, we are now prepared to be a stronger competitive force in northern California.

    2004 NORTH VALLEY BANCORP ANNUAL REPORT SACRAMENTO WE SERVE. VISION: TO BE THE MOSTSUCCESSFUL FINANCIAL SERVICES FINANCIAL PROVIDER IN THE MARKETS PROVIDE outstanding customer service in the delivery of competitive, innovative financial services and products. Continue to ACHIEVE consistent superior-to-peer investment returns for our shareholders. DEVELOP strong, mutually beneficial relationships with our customers. MISSION Be a positive corporate citizen – CONTRIBUTE human and financial resources to a variety of worthwhile community activities. CREATE an environment that provides opportunities for personal and professional growth. What a challenging and rewarding year 2004 was! Both North Valley Bancorp and the industry went through some dramatic changes during the year. For North Valley it was our acquisition of Yolo Community Bank, and for the industry it was Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”). This new legislation has fundamentally changed the way business transactions are executed and has changed the face of the auditing profession. SOX Section 404 had a direct impact on the Company as it cost North Valley over $200,000 to implement this section of SOX, in addition to all of the other corporate governance changes required by this legislation. On the more positive side, our August 31 acquisition of Yolo Community Bank was a big accomplishment in that we gained entry into higher growth markets around the Sacramento area. We were also able to integrate their back office and all their systems into North Valley Bancorp’s by the end of November in order to begin to gain efficiencies and grow on a single platform. Total shareholder return for 2004 was 29.9% as a result of stock price appreciation and cash dividends.

  • Don A. Beasley
    Don A. Beasley PARARESCUE-PJ Chief Master Sergeant (ret) Don A. Beasley found his calling to ensure the safe return of countless lives, not only on the battlefield but here in the United States after working as a Russian analyst. This higher calling led him to rescuing comrades in Vietnam and Alaska. With his experience, he trained and guided over 250 future pararescue personnel in order to maintain the safe return of Soldiers, Airmen, and Seamen around the world. This is only one of his many impacts from his time in pararescue. Beasley was born in LaPorte, Indiana in 1939. He joined the Air Force in 1956 as a Russian Linguist. In 1963, he chose to cross- train into the Air Force’s Pararescue career field. In order to cross-train, he attended jump school at Ft Benning, Georgia, scuba School in Key West, Florida, Ranger School in Dahlonega, Georgia, medical school at Gunter Air Force Base (AFB), Alabama, and finally the Pararescue transition school at Eglin AFB, Florida. With his extensive training complete, he accomplished multiple assignments during his career, mostly overseas. His first major experience in planning and executing rescue missions was when he was attached to the Gemini and Apollo space programs. As part of this recovery force, Beasley oversaw the safe recovery of astronauts in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Along with working as a member in the recovery force, he developed the method of attaching the flotation collars to the Apollo and Gemini spacecraft. In 1965, Beasley volunteered for Vietnam and served two years completing five missions and earning a Distinguished Flying Cross in 1968.
