UMPQUA HOLDINGS CORPORATION CONTINUES STRONG EARNINGS GROWTH IN THE FIRST QUARTER WHILE COMPLETING INTEGRATION

PORTLAND, Ore. - April 15, 2003 - Umpqua Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: UMPQ), parent company of Umpqua Bank and of Strand, Atkinson, Williams & York, Inc. today announced operating earnings of $8.79 million, a 78% increase over the same period one year ago, or $0.31 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2003.

Operating earnings are defined as the company's earnings before deduction of merger related expenses, and are only reported in quarters in which significant merger related activities occur. Net income is operating earnings minus merger related expenses.

Net income for the first quarter of 2003 was $8.38 million or $0.29 per diluted share compared to $6.7 million or $0.28 for 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:

"It was another quarter of strong financial performance," said Ray Davis, President and Chief Executive Officer of Umpqua Holdings Corporation. "With the integration of Centennial Bancorp virtually complete, we continue to strengthen our foundation for future growth in earnings this year. In addition, with the opening of our new flagship store in Portland's Pearl District, we continue to build on our reputation as a leader in the delivery of financial services."

The acquisition of Centennial Bancorp, which closed on November 15, 2003, was accounted for under the purchase accounting method, and Centennial Bancorp's results are included from the date of closing.

Total consolidated assets of Umpqua Holdings as of March 31, 2003 were $2.65 billion, compared to $2.56 billion at December 31, 2002. Total gross loans and deposits were $1.82 billion and $2.18 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2003, compared to $1.78 billion and $2.10 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2002.

The following table presents annualized 2003 growth, based on these first quarter achievements:

Demand Deposits grew 9.8% over the last 90 days alone and now constitute 24.9% of Umpqua Bank's deposit base.

Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2003 grew to $10.29 million, an increase of 12% over the fourth quarter of 2002 and an increase of 59% over the first quarter of 2002. This is due largely to the continuation of strong mortgage banking revenue. Revenue from mortgage banking was $4.28 million in the first quarter of 2003, compared to $3.99 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 and $1.68 million in the first quarter of 2002.

Umpqua Bank, Umpqua Holdings largest subsidiary, achieved an efficiency ratio before merger-related expenses of 55.10% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 compared to 52.88% for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 and 58.35% for the quarter ended March 31, 2002.

Including non-performing assets acquired as part of the Centennial acquisition, the Bank's non-performing loans stand at $17.82 million at March 31, 2003, representing 0.98% of total loans compared to 1.03% at December 31, 2002 and 0.45% at March 31, 2002.

"The results of this quarter are indicative of the excellent leadership and commitment of our management team and employees to deliver positive returns for our shareholders and superior service to our customers during an aggressive integration period," said Davis.
