Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On January 20, 2004, Umpqua issued a press release with respect to financial results for the fourth quarter and year-end 2003. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.
The press release filed as an exhibit to this report discloses operating earnings (and related per share amounts), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We believe our disclosure of operating earnings provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding merger-related expenses because merger-related expenses are difficult to predict. Management believes presentation of financial measures excluding the impact of such expenses is useful information because it provides information about ongoing business operations.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

UMPQUA HOLDINGS REPORTS 12% INCREASE IN FULL YEAR
2003 OPERATING EARNINGS PER SHARE
Nonperforming loans drop by thirty-eight percent.
PORTLAND, Ore. - Jan. 20, 2004 - Umpqua Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: UMPQ), parent company of Umpqua Bank and Strand, Atkinson, Williams & York, Inc., today announced fiscal 2003 operating earnings of $35.5 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $23.7 million, or $1.11 per diluted share in the previous year, representing an annual increase of 12%. For the fourth quarter of 2003, operating earnings were $8.59 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, down from $9.27 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2003.
Operating earnings are defined as the Company's earnings before deduction of merger-related expenses, which are reported in periods with merger-related costs. Net income is operating earnings minus merger-related expenses. There were no merger-related expenses recorded in the fourth quarter of 2003.
Net income for the full year was $34.12 million or $1.19 per diluted share compared to $21.97 million or $1.03 per diluted share for 2002.
Total loans increased by $68.1 million during the quarter, while nonperforming loans decreased by $2.0 million, or 15%, during the same period. The Bank's non-performing loans stand at $11.4 million at December 31, 2003, representing 0.57% of total loans, compared to 1.03% at December 31, 2002.
"Given the state of the economy, we believe the Company's earnings per share growth for 2003 of 12% was outstanding," said Ray Davis, president and chief executive officer of Umpqua Holdings Corporation. "During this past year we were also able to strengthen and prepare our infrastructure for continued growth in 2004, while improving our loan quality to high performance levels."
The Company's brokerage subsidiary, Strand, Atkinson, Williams & York, Inc., also reported that gross revenue was up 16% for the quarter compared with the fourth quarter of 2002.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to operating earnings, with merger- related expenses displayed for each period presented:
