Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Retirement Benefits | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Deferred Compensation Plan—The Company established a deferred compensation plan that permits eligible officers, key executives, and directors to defer a portion of their compensation. The deferred compensation plan is still in effect and was amended in 2007 to be in compliance with IRC §409(A) regulations. The deferred compensation, together with accrued accumulated interest, is distributable in cash after retirement or termination of service. The deferred compensation liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $443 thousand and $445 thousand, respectively, and were included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company established and the Board approved a Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) that rewards certain executive officers with deferred compensation if the Company meets certain performance goals, the named executive officers (“NEO”) meet individual performance goals, and the NEOs remain employed for a pre-determined period (between five and ten years, depending on the officer). All NEOs are currently participating in the LTIP. The liabilities related to the LTIP at December 31, 2024 and 2023, totaled $628 thousand and $590 thousand, respectively, and were included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. 401(k) Savings Plan—The Company established a 401(k) savings plan, which is open to all eligible employees who are 21 years old or over and have completed 3 months of service. The Company matches 75% of the first 8% of the employee’s compensation contributed. Employer matching is vested 25% after 2 years of service, 50% after 3 years of service, 75% after 4 years of service, and 100% after 5 or more years of service. Total employer contributions to the plan amounted to approximately $6.1 million, $6.9 million, and $5.9 million for 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Post-Retirement Benefit Plans—The Company purchased life insurance policies and entered into split dollar life insurance agreements with certain directors and officers. Under the terms of the split dollar life insurance agreements, a portion of the death benefits received by the Company will be paid to beneficiaries named by the directors and officers. Total death benefits received by the Company was $633 thousand, $587 thousand, and $1.2 million, for 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. In 2016, the Company assumed Wilshire Bank’s Survivor Income Plans which was originally adopted in 2003 and 2005 for the benefit of the directors and officers in order to encourage their continued employment and service, and to reward them for their past contributions. Wilshire Bank had also entered into separate Survivor Income Agreements with officers and directors relating to the Survivor Income Plan. Under the terms of the Survivor Income Plan, each participant is entitled to a base amount of death proceeds as set forth in the participant’s election to participate, which base amount increases three percent per calendar year, but only until normal retirement age, which is 65. If the participant remains employed after age 65, the death benefit will be fixed at the amount determined at age 65. If a participant has attained age 65 prior to becoming a participant in the Survivor Income Plan, the death benefit shall be equal to the base amount set forth in their election to participate with no increases. The Company is obligated to pay any death benefit owed under the Survivor Income Plan in a lump sum within 90 days following the participant’s death. In 2011, the Company assumed Center Bank’s Survivor Income Plan which was adopted in 2004 for the benefit of the directors and officers of the bank in order to encourage their continued employment and service, and to reward them for their past contributions. Under the terms of the Survivor Income Plan, each participant is entitled to a base amount of death proceeds as set forth in the participant’s election to participate. The Company is obligated to pay any death benefit owed under the Survivor Income Plan in a lump sum within 90 days following the participant’s death. The participant’s rights under the Survivor Income Plans terminate upon termination of employment. Upon termination of employment (except for termination for cause), if the participant has achieved the vesting requirements outlined in the plan, the participant will have the option to convert the amount of death benefits calculated at such termination to a split dollar arrangement, provided such arrangement is available under bank regulations and/or tax laws. If available, the Company and the participant will enter into a split dollar agreement and a split dollar policy endorsement. Under such an arrangement, the Company would annually impute income to the officer or the director based on tax laws or rules in force upon conversion. The Company’s accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $6.7 million, $6.3 million, and $6.8 million, respectively.
