News for 'WAMUQ' - (1st Pacific Bancorp Reports Third Quarter 2008 Results Capital Ratios and Liquidity Remain Strong)

SAN DIEGO, Nov 3, 2008 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- 1st Pacific Bancorp
(Nasdaq:FPBN), the holding company for 1st Pacific Bank of California, today
reported earnings of $9,531, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the third quarter
of 2008, compared with a net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share,
for the second quarter of 2008, and net income of $685,225, or $0.13 per diluted
share, for the third quarter of 2007. 1st Pacific's third quarter results
include a $500,000 other-than-temporary impairment charge stemming from its
investment in corporate debt of Washington Mutual Inc.

For the first nine months of the year, 1st Pacific reported a loss of $1.3
million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $2.0 million,
or $0.44 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2007.

During the third quarter, in light of the current economic environment, 1st
Pacific implemented steps to further strengthen its capital ratios and improve
its liquidity resources. As a result, 1st Pacific Bank remains "well
capitalized" by regulatory standards with a Total Risk-Based capital ratio of
11.02% at September 30, 2008, up from 10.98% at June 30, 2008. To be considered
"well capitalized" a bank must have over 10% Total Risk-Based capital.

"Our liquidity position remains strong and we continue to maintain capital
levels in excess of the well capitalized regulatory guidelines," said Ron
Carlson, Acting President and CEO. "The overall improvement in our liquidity
position during the quarter resulted from growth in deposits and our reduced
loan balances, primarily in commercial real estate loans.

"Our improved liquidity position allowed us to pay down $20 million in FHLB
borrowings during the quarter," Carlson continued. "In addition to our strong
customer base, we continue to have substantial credit facilities available from
the FHLB, the FRB and correspondent banks to meet our liquidity needs going
forward. We believe we are in a position to meet the liquidity needs of both the
company and our loan and deposit customers."

Balance Sheet Results

During the quarter, total assets decreased $6.6 million to $446 million, and
total loans decreased $10.8 million to $366 million compared to the prior
quarter. The reduction in loan balances was the result of efforts to reduce
commercial real estate concentrations. Deposit growth was solid during the
quarter, increasing $13.2 million or 4% over the prior quarter to $358 million
at September 30, 2008.

Asset Quality

"Management has been actively assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses based on current market conditions and inherent risks in the portfolio,"
said Jim Burgess, Chief Financial Officer. "We remain focused on reducing our
level of non-performing assets as we continue to work closely with borrowers to
help mitigate losses."

Nonperforming assets totaled $13.8 million, or 3.10% of total assets, at
September 30, 2008, compared with $11.6 million, or 2.57% of total assets, at
the end of the preceding quarter and $6.3 million, or 1.50% of total assets at
the end of September 2007.

During the September quarter, a provision of $250,000 was added to the loan loss
reserve. The reduction in the allowance for loan losses is a result of $4.0
million in charge-offs recorded in the third quarter. The allowance for loan
losses was $4.1 million, or 1.11% of total loans, at September 30, 2008,
compared with an allowance of $7.8 million, or 2.08% of total loans, at June 20,
2008, and an allowance of $4.5 million, or 1.28% of total loans, at September
30, 2007.

Review of Operations

For the third quarter of 2008, the net interest margin was 3.90%, compared with
4.32% for the previous quarter, and 5.03% for the third quarter a year ago. For
the first nine months of the year, the net interest margin was 4.26% compared
with 4.94% for the first nine months of 2007.

The decline in the net interest margin from prior periods results from the asset
sensitive balance sheet and the continuing effects of the Federal Reserve rate
cuts earlier this year. Additionally, unrecorded interest on non-accrual loans
reduced quarterly net interest margin by 38 basis points during the third
quarter.
