Shareholders' Equity
15. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Dividends are paid at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, based on the Company’s operating performance and financial position, including earnings, capital and liquidity. Dividends from the Bank are the Company’s primary source of funds for the payment of dividends to shareholders. In addition, federal and state regulatory agencies have the authority to prevent the Company from paying a dividend to shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company declared dividends of $0.2 million, or $0.03 per share. The Company did not pay a dividend in 2013.

The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements that prescribe quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items. The Company’s regulators also have imposed qualitative guidelines for capital amounts and classifications such as risk weightings, capital components and other details. The quantitative measures to ensure capital adequacy require that the Company maintain amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined in the regulations), and of Tier I capital to average total assets (as defined in the regulations). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company and Bank were classified as “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well-capitalized,” an entity must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios. Actual capital amounts, as well as required and well capitalized total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, for the Company and the Bank are set forth in the table below.
