UMPQUA HOLDINGS CORPORATION MEETS EARNINGS EXPECTATIONS AND
CONTINUES STRONG LOAN AND DEPOSIT GROWTH
Loan charge-offs for the quarter near record low level

PORTLAND, Ore. - July 15, 2003 - Umpqua Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: UMPQ), parent company of Umpqua Bank and of Strand, Atkinson, Williams & York, Inc., today announced operating earnings of $8.80 million, a 67% increase over the same period one-year ago, or $0.31 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2003.

Operating earnings are defined as the company's earnings before deduction of merger-related expenses, which are reported in periods with significant merger-related activities. Net income is operating earnings minus merger-related expenses. During the second quarter, the Company completed all milestones related to the Centennial Bancorp acquisition.

"Management is particularly pleased with Umpqua's operating earnings for this past quarter," said Ray Davis, President and Chief Executive Officer of Umpqua Holdings Corporation. "The current interest rate environment has created pressure on our net interest margin and the value of our mortgage servicing rights. We were able to off-set this charge to earnings by selling a small portion of our municipal bonds, which had significantly appreciated due to the lower interest rate environment."

Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $8.13 million or $0.28 per diluted share compared to $8.38 million or $0.29 for the first quarter of 2003.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to operating earnings, with merger- related expenses displayed for each period presented:

"During the quarter the company continued to benefit from significant organic growth in loans and deposits while recording one of the best quarters on record for net loan charge-offs," Davis said.

The acquisition of Centennial Bancorp, which closed on November 15, 2002, 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 June 30, 2003 were $2.75 billion, compared to $2.56 billion at December 31, 2002. Total gross loans and leases, and deposits were $1.88 billion and $2.28 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 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 growth achievements through June 2003:

Non-interest bearing demand deposits grew 13.6% over the last 91 days alone and now constitute 27% of Umpqua Bank's deposit base.

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2003 grew to $11.79 million, an increase of 15% over the first quarter of 2003 and an increase of 96% over the second quarter of 2002. Revenue from mortgage banking was $2.84 million in the second quarter of 2003, compared to $4.28 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $2.22 million in the second quarter of 2002. The company recorded an additional $1.7 million increase in the mortgage servicing right (MSR) valuation reserve during the second quarter of 2003 resulting from increased prepayment speed forecasts. The company also recognized $2.1 million in securities gains during the second quarter of 2003, used to offset the MSR impairment, in addition to $0.6 million in accelerated investment premium amortization resulting from the significant decline in market interest rates and related increase in prepayment speeds on mortgage backed securities.

Umpqua Bank, Umpqua Holdings largest subsidiary, reports an efficiency ratio before merger-related expenses of 57.69% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared to 55.10% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 and 57.22% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002.

The Bank's non-performing loans stand at $21.88 million at June 30, 2003, representing 1.17% of total loans compared to 0.98% at March 31, 2003 and 0.64% at June 30, 2002. Loan charge-offs for the quarter were $466 thousand netted against $294 thousand of loan recoveries, resulting in a net loan charge-off total for the quarter of $172 thousand.
