• Mission Valley Bank (the "Bank") has a long history of serving as a Community Development Financial Institution ("CDFI").  On June 15, 2021, the Bank was awarded a $1.8 million grant under the U.S. Department of Treasury's CDFI Rapid Response Program ("CDFI RRP"), which is intended to provide capital for CDFIs to respond to economic challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic in the distressed and underserved communities. No award proceeds have been received to date and the award agreement was executed on July 29, 2021, which contains various performance goals and measures that specify the use of funds.

Tamara Gurney, President and CEO, stated, "We are very pleased to report strong second quarter results highlighted by the significant non-PPP loan growth and the execution of the sale of round two PPP loans, which frees up resources to support our continued loan growth. Additionally, I am extremely gratified that our Bank was among a select group of CDFIs to be awarded the $1.8 million grant, which was awarded to aid our local area communities and small businesses negatively impacted by the Pandemic. As this is a newly formed program, the accounting treatment to formally recognize the funds has yet to be determined and the grant funding is not expected until later this year. Once received, these funds will further support the Bank's efforts to assist small businesses and our local communities to rebuild and rebound from the economic challenges they continue to face.

Gurney continued, "2021 continues to be a very positive year for the Company. Mission Valley's primary focus continues to be leveraging our strong capital base and solid platform, while continuing to invest in the resources necessary to create long term franchise value for our shareholders, team members, clients, and community."
