A Note From the Chairman - First Foundation
First Foundation is on track for another year of strong growth and increased profitability as we enter the second quarter of 2011. New offices are currently being planned in Palm Desert and San Diego, subject to regulatory approval, as well as an expansion of our Irvine headquarters. These offices are designed to allow us to further extend our reach of unsurpassed financial services to high net worth individuals and their businesses.
Most importantly, we remain financially strong. First Foundation Bank has stayed clear of the perils that continue to distract many of our competitors. Our wealth management platform's focus on providing a full array of financial services continues to define our commitment of meeting client needs with unparalleled service levels.
We are just as optimistic about economic recovery as many of our clients. Signs of improvement have us looking forward to continuing our momentum to becoming one of the premier institutions in the California market. We look forward to serving you through our ever increased offerings of financial services.
Scott Kavanaugh
CEO, First Foundation
