SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 6 Months Ended
--- | ---
Jun. 30, 2017
Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Banc of California, Inc. (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company, we, us and our) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Banc of California, National Association (the Bank), as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the Company include its then wholly owned subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X and other SEC rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by GAAP are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed by the Company with the SEC. The December 31, 2016 statement of financial condition presented herein has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC, but does not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Reclassification | In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL), reserve for loss on repurchased loans, servicing rights, the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, derivative instruments, purchased credit impaired (PCI) loan discount accretion, and the fair value measurement of financial instruments are particularly subject to change and any such change could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncements | Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the following pronouncement applicable to the Company was adopted: In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This Update was issued as a part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, and intends to improve the accounting for share-based payment transactions. The ASU changes several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including accounting for excess tax benefits and deficiencies, income statement recognition, cash flow classification, forfeitures, and tax withholding requirements. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities in annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. See Note 11 for additional information.
Segment Reporting | In connection with the sale of its Mortgage Banking segment, the Company reassessed its reportable operating segments. Based on this internal evaluation, the Company determined that all three of its previously disclosed reportable segments, Commercial Banking, Mortgage Banking, and Corporate/Other, are no longer applicable. Accordingly, to better reflect how the Company is now managed and how information is internally reviewed, the Company determined that all services offered by the Company relate to Commercial Banking and, as a result, its only reportable segment is Commercial Banking.
