First Foundation Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to amend Exhibit 23.1 (the “Original Exhibit 23.1”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed on March 15, 2017 (the “Form 10-K”), pursuant to which the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Co., LLP, consented to the use of their reports dated March 15, 2017 that are included in the Form 10-K.

The revised consent attached hereto as Exhibit 23.1 (the “Revised Exhibit 23.1”) supersedes and replaces the Original Exhibit 23.1. The Revised Exhibit 23.1 does not change any previously reported financial results of operations contained in the Form 10-K.
