Web Site Address United’s web site address is“www.ubsi-inc.com”. United makes available free of charge on its web site the annual reporton Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form10-Q, current reports on Form8-K, and amendments thereto, as soon as reasonably practicable after United files such reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission Business of United As a financial holding company, United’s present businesses are community banking and mortgage banking. As of December 31, United is permitted to acquire other banks and bank holding companies, as well as thrift institutions. United is also permitted to engage in certainnon-banking activities which are closely related to banking under the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act and the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation Y. Management continues to consider such opportunities as they arise, and in this regard, management from time to time makes inquiries, proposals, or expressions of interest as to potential opportunities, although no agreements or understandings to acquire other banks or bank holding companies ornon-banking subsidiaries or to engage in other nonbanking activities, other than those identified herein, presently exist. On December 3, 2021, United completed its acquisition of Community Bankers Trust Corporation (“Community Bankers Trust”), the parent company of Essex Bank (“Essex”) with $1.8 billion in assets, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. The acquisition of Community Bankers Trust enhanced United’s existing presence in the DC Metro MSA and took United into new markets including Baltimore, Annapolis, Lynchburg, Richmond, and the Northern Neck of Virginia. It also strategically connected our Mid-Atlantic and Southeast footprints. See Note B—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of United’s merger with Community Bankers Trust. On May 1, 2020, United completed 4 Business of Subsidiaries United, through its subsidiaries, engages primarily in community banking and mortgage banking offering most types of business permitted by law and regulation. Included among the banking services offered are the acceptance of deposits in checking, savings, time and money market accounts; the making and servicing of personal, commercial, and floor plan loans; and the making of construction and real estate loans. Also offered are individual retirement accounts, safe deposit boxes, wire transfers and other standard banking products and services. As part of its lending function, United Bank offers credit card services. United Bank maintains a trust department which acts as trustee under wills, trusts and pension and profit sharing plans, as executor and administrator of estates, and as guardian for estates of minors and incompetents, and in addition performs a variety of investment and security services. George Mason Mortgage, LLC Crescent Mortgage Company (“Crescent”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Bank, is primarily a correspondent/wholesale mortgage company approved to originate loans in 48 states partnering with community banks, credit unions and mortgage brokers. Much like George Mason, Crescent is also engaged in the operation of a general mortgage and agency business, including the origination and acquisition of residential real estate loans for resale and the activities commonly conducted by a mortgage banking company. Depending on the pricing of residential real estate loans sold, Crescent may retain the servicing rights. In addition, at certain times, Crescent may purchase or sell rights to service mortgage loans from or to third parties. United Brokerage Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Bank, is a fully-disclosed broker/dealer and a Registered Investment Advisor with the United Bank is a member of a network of automated teller machines known as the New York Currency Exchange United Bank also offers an automated telephone banking system, Telebanc, which allows customers to access their personal account(s) or business account(s) information from a touch-tone telephone. 5 Lending Activities United’s loan and lease portfolio, net of unearned income, increased Commercial Loans and Leases The commercial loan and lease portfolio consists of loans and leases to corporate borrowers primarily in small tomid-size industrial and commercial companies, as well as automobile dealers, service, retail and wholesale merchants. Collateral securing these loans includes equipment, machinery, inventory, receivables, vehicles and commercial real estate. Commercial loans and leases are considered to contain a higher level of risk than other loan types although care is taken to minimize these risks. Numerous risk factors impact this portfolio including industry specific risks such as economy, new technology, labor rates and cyclicality, as well as customer specific factors, such as cash flow, financial structure, operating controls and asset quality. United diversifies risk within this portfolio by closely monitoring industry concentrations and portfolios to ensure that it does not exceed established lending guidelines. Diversification is intended to limit the risk of loss from any single unexpected economic event or trend. Underwriting standards require a comprehensive credit analysis and independent evaluation of virtually all larger balance commercial loans by the loan committee prior to approval. Real Estate Loans Commercial real estate loans consist of commercial mortgages, which generally are secured by nonresidential and multi-family residential properties. Also included in this portfolio are loans that are secured by owner-occupied real estate, but made for purposes other than the construction or purchase of real estate. Commercial real estate loans are to many of the same customers and carry similar industry risks as the commercial loan portfolio. Real estate mortgage loans to consumers are secured primarily by a first lien deed of trust. These loans are traditionalone-to-four family residential mortgages. The loans generally do not exceed an 80% loan to value ratio at the loan origination date and most are at a variable rate of interest. These loans are considered to be of normal risk. Also included in the category of real estate mortgage loans are home equity loans. As of December 31, Consumer Loans Consumer loans are secured by automobiles, boats, recreational vehicles, and other personal property. Personal loans, student loans and unsecured credit card receivables are also included as consumer loans. United monitors the risk associated with these types of loans by monitoring such factors as portfolio growth, lending policies and economic conditions. Underwriting standards are continually evaluated and modified based upon these factors. Underwriting Standards United’s loan underwriting guidelines and standards are updated periodically and are presented for approval by the Board of Directors of United Bank. The purpose of the standards and guidelines is to grant loans on a sound and collectible basis; to invest available funds in a safe, profitable manner; to serve the legitimate credit needs of the communities of United’s primary market area; and to ensure that all loan applicants receive fair and equal treatment in the lending process. It is the intent of the underwriting guidelines and standards 6 United’s underwriting standards and practices are designed to originate both fixed and variable rate loan products in a manner which is consistent with the prudent banking practices applicable to these exposures. Typically, both fixed and variable rate loan underwriting practices incorporate conservative methodology, including the use of stress testing for commercial loans, and other product appropriate measures designed to provide an adequate margin of safety for the full collection of both principal and interest within contractual terms. Consumer real estate secured loans are underwritten to the initial rate, and to a higher assumed rate commensurate with normal market conditions. Therefore, it is the intent of United’s underwriting standards to The above guidelines are adhered to and subject to the experience, background and personal judgment of the loan officer assigned to the loan application. A loan officer may grant, with justification, a loan with variances from the underwriting guidelines and standards. However, the loan officer may not exceed his or her respective lending authority without obtaining the prior, proper approval as outlined in United’s loan policy from a superior, a regional supervisor or market president (dual approval per policy) or the Loan Committee, whichever is deemed appropriate for the nature of the variance. Loan Concentrations United has commercial loans, including real estate and owner-occupied, income-producing real estate and land development loans, of approximately United does not have a loan classification concentration in the restaurants, hotel and accommodations industry. As of December 31, 2022, approximately $1.2 billion or 5.57% of United’s total loan portfolio were to hotels and other traveler accommodations. In addition, United does not have a loan classification concentration in the mining, quarrying and oil and gas extraction industry. As of December 31, Secondary Markets United generally originates loans within the primary market area of United Bank. United may from time to time make loans to borrowers and/or on properties outside of its primary market area as an accommodation to its existing customers. United Bank, George Mason, 7 During The principal sources of revenue from United’s mortgage banking business are: (i) loan origination fees; (ii) gains or losses from the sale of Loan Servicing United through its mortgage banking subsidiary, Crescent, may retain the rights to service a portion of the loans sold in the third-party market, as part of its mortgage banking activities, for which United receives service fee income. In addition, at certain times United may purchase rights to service from third parties. These rights are known as mortgage servicing rights, or MSRs, where the owner of the MSR acts on behalf of the mortgage loan owner and has the contractual right to receive a stream of cash flows in exchange for performing specified mortgage servicing functions. These duties typically include, but are not limited to, performing loan administration, collection, and default activities, including the collection and remittance of loan payments, responding to customer inquiries, accounting for principal and interest, holding custodial (impound) funds for the payment of property taxes and insurance premiums, counseling delinquent mortgagors, modifying loans and supervising foreclosures and property dispositions. United subservices the duties and responsibilities obligated to the owner of the MSR to a third party provider for which we pay a fee. Investment Activities United’s investment policy stresses the management of the investment securities portfolio, which includes both securities held to maturity and securities available for sale, to maximize return over the long-term in a manner that is consistent with good banking practices and relative safety of principal. United currently does not engage in trading account activity. The Asset/Liability Management Committee of United is responsible for the coordination and evaluation of the investment portfolio. Sources of funds for investment activities include “core deposits”. Core deposits include certain demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts. These deposits are relatively stable and they are the lowest cost source of funds available to United. Short-term borrowings have also been a significant source of funds. These include federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and FHLB borrowings. United’s investment portfolio is comprised of a significant amount of mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. Human Capital At United, one of our key competitive advantages is our people. Investment in our human capital is a top priority for the Company. As of December 31, 2022, United and its subsidiaries had 2,765 employees and officers. Of the 2,765 employees and officers, 2,331 are employed in the community banking segment, 366 are employed in the mortgage banking segment and 68 are in a general support and administrative function for the Company. None of these employees are represented by a collective bargaining unit and management considers employee relations to be excellent. We emphasize positive attitudes, communication, teamwork, goal attainment, personal growth, and the pursuit of excellence when it comes to delivering high-quality service to our customers and fellow employees. Our human capital management strategy focuses on recruiting, developing, and engaging a talented and diverse workforce. Our strategy embodies our core values of integrity, teamwork, hard work, and caring, and foster positive attitudes, communication, goal attainment, personal growth, and the pursuit of United’s mission of excellence in service to our shareholders, our customers, our communities, and our employees. 8 Focusing on talent selection and developing top talent remains a strong pillar of our organization. Our primary focus is to attract and advance the careers of employees with diverse backgrounds, experiences, ideas, and skills. We host college recruiting and internship programs that attract candidates from a variety of colleges and universities within our footprint. These two programs build a talent pipeline and prioritize these individuals for internal openings. Our Leadership Development Program provides an opportunity for the Company’s rising talent from across our footprint and various business lines to strengthen their leadership and communication skills, increase their visibility within the organization, and establish internal networks. This program helps to cultivate a future pipeline of leaders across the institution. Over a period of four years, these individuals are empowered to work on pertinent projects designed to enhance revenue, reduce expenses, and improve risk management functions, while developing the members’ leadership, interactive, and managerial skills. Past members now hold key positions across the Company ranging from Department Managers to Line of Business Leaders to Executive Officers. One of our strategic priorities to ensure leadership continuity is effective succession planning. The Company has a formal plan to identify potential successors and actively develop those employees. The plan includes all critical management positions throughout the organization and is updated annually. This process is dynamic, and we have added additional management positions to the plan as the Company continues to evolve and grow. The Company’s executives constantly review and evaluate personnel to identify pools of candidates with high levels of leadership potential and promote their progress by engineering their range of work experiences. We also have an internal and external training platform to ensure our employees have the necessary tools to fill these key positions effectively. United also has an effective and efficient onboarding program, introducing new team members to the culture and enabling an environment that helps them be engaged in their roles. We have rigorous interdepartmental training and development programs that provide employees with capabilities to perform their job functions, deliver results, and advance their careers. We partnered with West Virginia University to develop an executive training program aimed at developing the technical, theoretical, and applied skills needed for a successful launch into a career in Business Banking. High-performing employees are given opportunities to attend state and national banking schools, conferences, industry peer groups, and training webinars. All United employees have access to career development and skills-based training through our internal online Human Resources (“HR”) management system. United makes every effort to ensure that our compensation and benefits packages are inclusive and competitive to attract and retain talent. Our comprehensive benefit plans are designed to fully support our full-time and eligible part-time employees and their families through every stage of their life cycle, recognizing our employees’ individual needs and offering flexible benefit options. As an enhanced benefit, we recently increased our parental leave and family medical leave and added coverage for enhanced infertility coverage. We provide comprehensive health and wellness plans for all eligible employees as well as retirees of United. We also provide other paid-time off benefits such as vacation, sick time, personal days, and birthdays. The Company also provides financial wellness benefits to all employees through our 401K Plan in which the Company provides a competitive match of employee contributions. All employees are eligible to take advantage of United’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan through payroll deductions. United Bank’s annual performance evaluation process provides the opportunity for discussing, planning, and reviewing the performance of each employee. The goal is to help employees clearly define and understand the responsibilities and expectations of their position while also identifying employees with high potential for advancement within the company. Performance evaluations also provide an opportunity for employees to be awarded additional compensation based on merit. Managers are expected to maintain open communication throughout the year 9 We are committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment for our employees and offer services to foster the best physical, mental, and social well-being of our workforce. United’s Employee Assistance Program provides all employees a comprehensive and personalized process with a tailored approach to meet employees where they are and supports them through whatever journey they may be facing. The Employee Assistance Program provides unlimited phone access for information, resources, and referrals and provides sessions with a counselor for the employee and their family members. The employee, and their family, can also take advantage of a host of web-based resources the program provides. The commitment to our employees and their family’s well-being is at the forefront for United In addition, at United, we are committed to nurturing an inclusive culture that: is reflective of DE&I employee liaisons were selected through an application process, received training on courageous conversations, and then held open forums with local colleagues related to various DE&I topics. The Management Information System (“MIS”) team has collaborated with the HR department to apply best practices in data governance to the metrics that are so critical to measuring success in DE&I. To continue to cultivate our inclusive culture, United offers employees a way to report confidential and anonymous issues of concern through our website. Whether it is a compliance or regulatory violation, wrongdoing, improper conduct, or harassment, the confidential report will be instantly and discreetly forwarded for review. Competition United faces a high degree of competition in all of the markets it serves. We face strong competition in gathering deposits, making loans and obtaining client assets for management by our investment or trust operations. United considers all of West Virginia to be included in its market area. This area includes the five largest West Virginia Metropolitan Statistical Areas With prior regulatory approval, 10 As of December 31, Regulation and Supervision United, as a financial holding company, is subject to the restrictions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is registered pursuant to its provisions. As such, United is subject to the reporting requirements of and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Board of Governors”). The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits the acquisition by a bank holding company of direct or indirect ownership of more than five percent of the voting shares of any bank within the United States without prior approval of the Board of Governors. With certain exceptions, a bank holding company also is prohibited from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than five percent of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank, and from engaging directly or indirectly in business unrelated to the business of banking, or managing or controlling banks. The Board of Governors, in its Regulation Y, permits financial holding companies to engage in preapprovednon-banking activities closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks. Approval of the Board of Governors is necessary to engage in certain othernon-banking activities which are not preapproved or to make acquisitions of corporations engaging in these activities. In addition, on acase-by-case basis, the Board of Governors may approve othernon-banking activities. A financial holding company may also engage in financial activities, including securities underwriting and dealing, insurance agency and underwriting activities, and merchant banking activities. As a financial holding company doing business in West Virginia, United is also subject to regulation and examination by the West Virginia Board of Banking and Financial Institutions (the The Board of Governors has broad authority to prohibit activities of financial holding companies and theirnon-banking subsidiaries that represent unsafe and unsound banking practices or which constitute violations of laws or regulations. The Board of Governors also can assess civil money penalties for certain activities conducted on a knowing and reckless basis, if those activities caused a substantial loss to a depository institution. The penalties can be as high as $1 million for each day the activity continues. United Bank, as a Virginia state member bank, is subject to supervision, examination, and regulation by the Federal Reserve System, and as such, 11 United is also under the jurisdiction of the SEC and certain state securities commissions in regard to the offering and sale of its securities. Generally, United must file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, to issue additional shares of its common stock. United is also registered under and is subject to the regulatory and disclosure requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as administered by the SEC. United is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the quotation symbol “UBSI,” and is subject to the rules of the NASDAQ for listed companies. SEC regulations require us to disclose certain types of business and financial data on a regular basis to the SEC and to our shareholders. We are required to file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC. We prepare and file an annual report onForm 10-K with the SEC that contains detailed financial and operating information, as well as a management response to specific questions about United’s operations. SEC regulations require that our annual reports to shareholders contain certified financial statements and other specific items such as management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations. We must also file quarterly reports with the SEC on Form10-Q that contain detailed financial and operating information for the prior quarter and we must file current reports on Form8-K to provide the pubic with information on recent material events. In addition to periodic reporting to the SEC, we are subject to proxy rules and tender offer rules issued by the SEC. Our officers, directors and principal shareholders (holding 10% or more of our stock) must also submit reports to the SEC regarding their holdings of our stock and any changes to such holdings, and they are subject to short-swing profit liability. Dividends and Stock Repurchases The principal source of United’s liquidity is dividends from United Bank. The prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board is required if the total of all dividends declared by a state-chartered member bank in any calendar year would exceed the sum of the bank’s net profits for that year and its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years, less any required transfers to surplus or to fund the retirement of preferred stock. Federal law also prohibits a state-chartered, member bank from paying dividends that would be greater than the bank’s undivided profits. United Bank is also subject to limitations under Virginia state law regarding the level of dividends that may be paid. In addition, United and United Bank are subject to other regulatory policies and requirements relating to the payment of dividends, including requirements to maintain adequate capital above regulatory minimums. The appropriate federal regulatory authority is authorized to determine under certain circumstances relating to the financial condition of a bank holding company or a bank that the payment of dividends would be an unsafe or unsound practice and to prohibit payment thereof. The appropriate federal regulatory authorities have stated that paying dividends that deplete a bank’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice and that banking organizations should generally pay dividends only out of current operating earnings. In addition, in the current financial and economic environment, the Federal Reserve Board has indicated that bank holding companies should carefully review their dividend policy and has discouraged payment ratios that are at maximum allowable levels unless both asset quality and capital are very strong. In July 2019, the federal bank regulators adopted final rules (the “Capital Simplifications Rules”) that, among other things, eliminated the standalone prior approval requirement in the Basel III Capital Rules for any repurchase of common stock. In certain circumstances, United’s repurchases of its common stock may be subject to a prior approval or notice requirement under other regulations, policies or supervisory expectations of the Federal Reserve Board. Any redemption or repurchase of preferred stock or subordinated debt remains subject to the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) imposes a new 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock repurchased after December 31, 2022 by publicly traded U.S. corporations. With certain exceptions, the value of stock repurchased is determined net of stock issued in the year, including shares issued pursuant to compensatory arrangements. Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act), into law. The Dodd-Frank Act significantly changes regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act includes, among other things, provisions creating a Financial Services Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks and improve interagency cooperation; centralizing the responsibility for 12 consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws; permanently raising the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000; establishing strengthened capital standards for banks, and disallowing trust preferred securities as qualifying for Tier 1 capital (subject to certain grandfather provisions for existing trust preferred securities); establishing new minimum mortgage underwriting standards; granting the Federal Reserve Board the power to regulate debit card interchange fees; and implementing corporate governance changes. On Deposit Insurance Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and Securities Act of 1933. The Act is divided into six titles, which aim to: improve consumer access to mortgage credit (Title I); provide regulatory relief and protect consumer access to credit (Title II); protect the credit information of consumers, including veterans and servicemembers (Title III); tailor regulations for certain bank holding companies, including raising the threshold levels for exemption from certain prudential standards and stress testing (Title IV); encourage capital formation by reforming certain Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations (Title V); and protect student borrowers (Title VI). Deposit Insurance The deposits of United Bank are insured by the FDIC to the extent provided by law. Accordingly, United Bank is also subject to regulation by the FDIC. United Bank is subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the Deposit Insurance Fund In April 2011, the FDIC implemented rulemaking under the Dodd-Frank Act to reform the deposit insurance assessment system. The final rule redefined the assessment base used for calculating deposit insurance assessments. Specifically, the rule bases assessments on an institution’s total assets less tangible capital, as opposed to total deposits. Since the new base is larger than the prior base, the FDIC also proposed lowering assessment rates so that the rules would not significantly alter the total amount of revenue collected from the industry. The new assessment scale ranges from 2.5 basis points for the least risky institutions to 45 basis points for the riskiest. As part of its changes in April 2011, the FDIC established a new methodology for determining assessment rates for large and highly complex institutions, as defined in the rules. In October 2012, the FDIC announced revised changes to some of the definitions used to determine assessment rates for these large and highly complex insured depository institutions. The rule generally applies to FDIC-regulated banks with assets greater than $10 billion and took effect April 1, 2013. In the second quarter of 2018, United Bank was reclassified as a large institution for deposit insurance assessment purposes. Generally, this new classification resulted in higher FDIC insurance premiums. On September 30, 2018, the Deposit Insurance Fund Reserve Ratio reached 1.36%, exceeding the statutorily required minimum reserve ratio of 1.35% ahead of the September 30, 2020, deadline required under the Dodd-Frank Act. FDIC regulations provide for two changes to deposit insurance assessments upon reaching the minimum: (1) surcharges on insured depository institutions with total consolidated assets of $10 billion or more (large banks) ceased on December 28, 2018; and (2) small banks will receive assessment credits for the portion of their assessments that contributed to the growth in the reserve ratio from between 1.15% and 1.35%, to be applied when the reserve ratio is at or above 1.38%. United benefited from both these changes. On October 18, 2022, the FDIC adopted a final rule to increase initial base deposit insurance assessment rates for insured depository institutions by 2 basis points, beginning with the first quarterly assessment period of 2023. The increased assessment rate schedules would remain in effect unless and until the reserve ratio of the Deposit Insurance Fund meets or exceeds 2 percent. As a result of the new rule, the FDIC insurance costs of insured depository institutions, including United Bank, would generally increase. 13 United’s FDIC insurance expense totaled Capital Requirements A minimum ratio of A minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer A minimum ratio of A minimum leverage ratio of Banking institutions that fail to The Basel III Capital Rules In addition, under the general risk-based capital rules, the effects of accumulated other comprehensive income items included in capital In February 2019, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule (the “2019 CECL Rule”) that revised certain capital 14 The Basel III Capital Rules prescribe a standardized approach for risk weightings that In In December 2017, the Basel Committee published standards that it described as the finalization of the Basel III post-crisis regulatory reforms (the standards are commonly referred to as “Basel IV”). Among other things, these standards revise the Basel Committee’s standardized approach for credit risk (including by recalibrating risk weights and introducing new capital requirements for certain “unconditionally cancellable commitments,” such as unused credit card lines of credit) and provides a new standardized approach for operational risk capital. Under the Basel framework, these standards generally became effective on January 1, 2022, with an aggregate output floor phasing in through January 1, 2027. Under the current U.S. capital rules, Failure to meet statutorily mandated capital guidelines or more restrictive ratios separately established for a financial institution could subject United to a variety of enforcement remedies, including issuance of a capital directive, the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC, a prohibition on accepting or renewing brokered deposits, limitations on the rates of interest that the institution may pay on its deposits and other restrictions on its business. As described below, significant additional restrictions can be imposed on United if it would fail to meet applicable capital requirements. Prompt Corrective Action The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) establishes a Effective January 1, 2015, under the Basel III Capital Rules, the current prompt corrective action requirements for an institution to be “well-capitalized” is a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a CET1 ratio of 6.5% or greater and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5 percent or greater. United Bank was considered a “well capitalized” institution as of December 31, Community Reinvestment Act The Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (“CRA”) requires depository institutions to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas consistent with safe and sound banking practice. Under the CRA, each depository institution is required to help meet the credit needs of its market areas by, among other things, providing credit tolow- and moderate-income individuals and communities. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with the CRA and are assigned ratings. Banking regulators take into account CRA ratings when considering approval of a proposed transaction. 15 In the third quarter of 2022, United Bank received a Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) Performance Evaluation from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (the “FRB”) with a rating of “Needs to Improve.” Based on its performance on the individual components of the CRA exam, United Bank received a rating of A “Needs to Improve” rating results in restrictions on certain expansionary activities, including certain mergers and acquisitions and the establishment of bank branches. These restrictions will remain in place until the FRB issues a higher CRA rating following a subsequent CRA examination. The next CRA examination commenced in October 2022 and United Bank is awaiting the results. The precise timing of any results therefrom will not be known until later. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC issued a joint notice of proposed rulemaking on May 5, 2022, proposing revisions to the CRA regulations. Comments on the proposed rulemaking were due by August 5, 2022. In September, 2022, legislation was introduced to significantly revise the CRA to add a number of new substantive and procedural requirements. This legislation may delay the pending proposed rulemaking by the banking regulators. We will continue to evaluate the impact of any changes to the regulations implementing the CRA and their impact to our financial condition, results of operations, and/or liquidity, which cannot be predicted at this time. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) The CARES Act, which became law on March 27, 2020, provided over $2 trillion to combat the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and stimulate the economy. Many of the CARES Act’s programs, including the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), are dependent upon the direct involvement of U.S. financial institutions and have been implemented through rules and guidance adopted by federal departments and agencies, including the U.S. Department of Treasury, the Federal Reserve and other federal banking agencies, including those with direct supervisory jurisdiction over United and United Bank. Furthermore, as the on-going COVID-19 pandemic evolves, federal regulatory authorities continue to issue additional guidance with respect to the implementation, lifecycle, and eligibility requirements for the various CARES Act programs as well as industry-specific recovery procedures for COVID-19. On December 27, 2020, then President Trump signed into law the 2021 Consolidated Appropriations Act (the “CAA”), an approximately $900 billion bill, which extended several provisions of the CARES Act as well as provided additional COVID-19 relief. In particular, the CAA extended weekly unemployment benefits, provided another round of economic stimulus payments to individuals and families, lengthened temporary suspensions and modifications of several-bank related provisions and provided more aid to small businesses. On March 11, 2021, President Joe Biden signed into law the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. The legislation included additional stimulus checks to eligible individuals and an extension of the $300-per-week supplement to federal unemployment benefits through September 6, 2021. The legislation also allocates funding to small businesses, state and local governments, and COVID-19 vaccination and testing and tracing efforts. The legislation also modified the PPP to clarify that the SBA affiliation rules would not apply to certain applicants. Specifically, 501(c)(3) organizations that employ not more than 500 employees per physical location of the organization would become eligible for the program. The legislation also provided an additional $7.25 billion for the program. However, the legislation did not extend the March 31, 2021 application deadline. On March 27, 2021, the COVID-19 Bankruptcy Relief Extension Act of 2021 was enacted, extending the bankruptcy relief provisions enacted in the CARES Act of 2020 bill until March 27, 2022. These provisions provide financially distressed small businesses and individuals greater access to bankruptcy relief. 16 On March 30, 2021, President Biden signed into law the PPP Extension Act of 2021. This bill extended the PPP through June 30, 2021. For the final 30 days of the program (i.e., from June 1 until June 30), the SBA may only process applications submitted prior to June 1, and it may not accept any new loan applications. On June 24, 2021, President Biden announced that the three federal agencies that back mortgages – the Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”), and Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) – extended their respective foreclosure moratorium for one, final month, until July 31, 2021. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) also announced that it extended the foreclosure moratorium for mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac until July 31, 2021. President Biden emphasized that this was the final extension. On January 30, 2023, President Biden announced that he intends to end both the national emergency and the public health emergency declarations related to COVID-19 on May 11, 2023. Cybersecurity In The federal banking regulators In November 2021, the federal banking agencies adopted a final rule, with compliance by May 1, 2022, that requires banking organizations to notify their primary banking regulator within 36 hours of determining that a “computer-security incident” has materially disrupted or degraded, or is reasonably likely to materially disrupt or degrade, the banking organization’s ability to carry out banking operations or deliver banking products and services to a material portion of its customer base, its businesses and operations that would result in material loss, or its operations that would impact the stability of the United States. In the ordinary course of business, United relies on electronic communications and information systems to conduct its operations and to store sensitive data. United employs anin-depth, layered, defensive approach that leverages people, processes and technology to manage and maintain cybersecurity controls. United employs a variety of preventative and detective tools to monitor, block, and provide alerts regarding suspicious activity, as well as to report on any suspected advanced persistent threats. Notwithstanding the strength of its defensive measures, the threat from cyber-attacks is severe, attacks are sophisticated and increasing in volume, and attackers respond rapidly to changes in defensive measures. While to date, United and United Bank have not experienced a significant compromise, significant data loss or any material financial losses related to cybersecurity attacks, United’s systems and those of its customers and third-party service providers are under constant threat and it is possible that United could experience a significant event in the future. Risks and exposures related to cybersecurity attacks, including litigation and enforcement risks, are expected to Deposit Acquisition Limitation Under West Virginia banking law, an acquisition or merger is not permitted if the resulting depository institution or its holding company, including its affiliated depository institutions, would assume additional deposits to cause it to control deposits in the State of West Virginia in excess of twenty five percent (25%) of such total amount of all deposits held by insured depository institutions in West Virginia. This limitation may be waived by the Commissioner of Banking by showing good cause. 17 Consumer Laws and Regulations In addition to the banking laws and regulations discussed above, bank subsidiaries are also subject to certain consumer laws and regulations that are designed to protect consumers in transactions with banks. Among the more prominent of such laws and regulations are the Truth in Lending Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Right to Financial Privacy Act and the Fair Housing Act. These laws and regulations mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which financial institutions must deal with customers when taking deposits or making loans to such customers. United’s bank subsidiary must comply with the applicable provisions of these consumer protection laws and regulations as part of its ongoing customer relations. As discussed above, the Dodd-Frank Act centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating the CFPB, and giving it responsibility for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer protection laws. The CFPB has broad rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement authority over consumer financial products and services, including deposit products, residential mortgages, home-equity loans, and credit cards. The CFPB’s functions include investigating consumer complaints, rulemaking, supervising and examining banks’ consumer transactions, and enforcing rules related to consumer financial products and services. Banks with more than $10 billion in assets, such as United Bank, are subject to supervision by the CFPB with respect to these federal consumer financial laws. Anti-Money Laundering and the USA Patriot Act A major focus of governmental policy on financial institutions in recent years has been aimed at combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, or the USA Patriot Act, substantially broadened the scope of United States anti-money laundering laws and regulations by imposing significant new compliance and due diligence obligations, creating new crimes and penalties and expanding the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the United States. Financial institutions are also prohibited from entering into specified financial transactions and account relationships and must use enhanced due diligence procedures in their dealings with certain types of high-risk customers and implement a written customer identification program. Financial institutions must take certain steps to assist government agencies in detecting and preventing money laundering and report certain types of suspicious transactions. Regulatory authorities routinely examine financial institutions for compliance with these obligations, and failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, or to comply with all of the relevant laws or regulations, could have serious financial, legal and reputational consequences for the institution, including causing applicable bank regulatory authorities not to approve merger or acquisition transactions when regulatory approval is required or to prohibit such transactions even if approval is not required. Regulatory authorities have imposed cease and desist orders and civil money penalties against institutions found to be violating these obligations. The Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (“AMLA”), which amends the Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 (“BSA”), was enacted in January 2021. The AMLA is intended to be a comprehensive reform and modernization to U.S. bank secrecy and anti-money laundering laws. Among other things, it codifies a risk-based approach to anti-money laundering compliance for financial institutions; requires the U.S. Department of the Treasury to promulgate priorities for anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism policy; requires the development of standards for testing technology and internal processes for BSA compliance; expands enforcement- and investigation-related authority, including increasing available sanctions for certain BSA violations; and expands BSA whistleblower incentives and protections. Many of the statutory provisions in the AMLA will require additional rulemakings, reports and other measures, and the impact of the AMLA will depend on, among other things, rulemaking and implementation guidance. In June 2021, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, issued the priorities for anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism policy required under the AMLA. The priorities include: corruption, cybercrime, terrorist financing, fraud, transnational crime, drug trafficking, human trafficking and proliferation financing. 18 Incentive Compensation The Federal Reserve Board reviews, as part of its regular, risk-focused examination process, the incentive compensation arrangements of banking organizations, such as United, that are not “large, complex banking organizations.” These reviews are tailored to each organization based on the scope and complexity of the organization’s activities and the prevalence of incentive compensation arrangements. The findings of this supervisory initiative will be included in reports of examination. Deficiencies will be incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the organization’s ability to make acquisitions and take other actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk-management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the organization’s safety and soundness and the organization is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies. In June 2010, the Federal Reserve Board, OCC and FDIC issued comprehensive final guidance on incentive compensation policies intended to ensure that the incentive compensation policies of banking organizations do not undermine the safety and soundness of such organizations by encouraging excessive risk-taking. The guidance, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially affect the risk profile of an organization, either individually or as part of a group, is based upon the key principles that a banking organization’s incentive compensation arrangements should (i) provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond the organization’s ability to effectively identify and manage risks, (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management, and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors. In April and May of 2016, the Federal Reserve Board, other federal banking agencies and the SEC (the “Agencies”) jointly published proposed rulemaking designed to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act prohibiting incentive compensation arrangements that would encourage inappropriate risk taking at a covered institution, which includes a bank or bank holding company with $1 billion or more of assets, such as United. The proposed rule expanded beyond the June 2010 principals based guidance and broadened the scope to include community banks. The proposed rules (i) prohibit incentive-based compensation arrangements that encourage executive officers, employees, directors or principal shareholders to expose the institution to inappropriate risks by providing excessive compensation (based on the standards for excessive compensation adopted pursuant to the FDIA) and (ii) prohibit incentive-based compensation arrangements for executive officers, employees, directors or principal shareholders that could lead to a material financial loss for the institution. The proposed rule requires covered institutions to establish policies and procedures for monitoring and evaluating their compensation practices. In August 2022, the SEC adopted final rules In October 2022, the SEC adopted the final “clawback” rule mandated by Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Act directing national securities exchanges and associations, including the NASDAQ, to implement listing standards that require listed companies to adopt policies mandating the recovery or The scope and content of the U.S. banking regulators’ policies on incentive compensation are continuing to develop. It cannot be determined at this time whether or when a final rule will be adopted and whether compliance with such a final rule will adversely affect the ability of United and United Bank to hire, retain and motivate their key employees. RISK FACTORS United is subject to risks inherent to the Company’s business. The material risks and uncertainties that management believes affect the Company are described below. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this report. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties that management is not aware of or focused on or that management currently deems immaterial may also impair United’s business operations. This report is qualified in its entirety by these risk factors. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION RISKS Our Needs to Improve rating under The Community Reinvestment Act may restrict our operations and In A “Needs to Improve” rating results in restrictions on certain expansionary activities, including These restrictions will remain in place until the FRB issues a higher CRA rating following a subsequent CRA examination. The next CRA examination commenced in October 2022 and United is subject to extensive government regulation and supervision. United is subject to extensive federal and state regulation, supervision and 20 In the normal course of business, United and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to examinations and challenges from federal and state tax authorities regarding the amount of taxes due in connection with investments that the Company has made and the businesses in which United has engaged. Recently, federal and state taxing authorities have become increasingly aggressive in challenging tax positions taken by financial institutions. These tax positions may relate to tax compliance, sales and use, franchise, gross receipts, payroll, property and income tax issues, including tax base, apportionment and tax credit planning. The challenges made by tax authorities may result in adjustments to the timing or amount of taxable income or deductions or the allocation of income among tax jurisdictions. If any such challenges are made and are not resolved in the Company’s favor, they could have a material adverse effect on United’s financial condition and results of operations. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau The CFPB has broad rulemaking authority to administer and carry out the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to financial institutions that offer covered financial products and services to consumers. The CFPB has also been directed to write rules identifying practices or acts that are unfair, deceptive or abusive in connection with any transaction with a consumer for a consumer financial product or service, or the offering of a consumer financial product or service. The concept of what may be considered to be an “abusive” practice is relatively new under the law. Moreover, United Bank is supervised and examined by the CFPB for compliance with the CFPB’s regulations and policies. The costs and limitations related to this additional regulatory reporting regimen have yet to be fully determined, although they may be material and the limitations and restrictions that will be placed upon United Bank with respect to its consumer product offering and services may produce significant, material effects on United Bank (and United’s) profitability. United is subject to higher regulatory capital requirements and failure to comply with these standards may impact dividend payments, equity repurchases and executive compensation. 2019.

The national unemployment rate was 4.1%. The state unemployment rate of 5.5% for December 2017 was an increase from a rate of 5.3% for the month of November 2017 and down from the rate of 5.8% for the month of December 2016. Total nonfarm payroll employment increased 400 in December, with losses of 600 in the service-providing sector offset by gains of 1,000 in the goods-producing sector. West Virginia’s not seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 5.3% in December 2017. After several years of economic hardship, West Virginia’s economy hit bottom in 2016 and has grown over the past few quarters of 2017. West Virginia’s jobless rate fell to its lowest level in nearly a decade during the second quarter of 2017, reaching just over 4.6%. West Virginia’s real gross domestic product declined in 2015 and 2016, but has increased at a rapid pace over the past few quarters of 2017. Changes in the state’s total economic output have been volatile since 2012, reflecting the turbulence within the state’s coal and natural gas industries. According to the latest forecast from the West Virginia University College of Business and Economics, West Virginia’s unemployment rate is expected to hover in themid-4 percent range for the next several quarters, but slowly begin to decline through the early 2020s. Employment in West Virginia is estimated to increase nearly 0.7% per year on average through 2022, trailing the 0.9% average annual growth expected for the nation as a whole. Total employment is not expected to return to its 2012 peak until 2021. Per capita personal income is expected to grow at an annual average rate of 1.8% over the next five years, below the national rate of 2.3%. Growth will be driven largely bynon-wage income, such as Social Security benefits. West Virginia’s population has declined by more than 25,000 people since 2012, and although it is expected that the state’s population will stabilize, more losses are likely over the longer term due to large share of elderly residents and the effects of poor health outcomes and behaviors for many segments of the overall population.United’s Virginia banking offices are located in markets that historically have reflected low unemployment rate levels. According to information available from the Virginia Employment Commission, Virginia’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in December 2017 was unchanged from November 2017 at 3.7%, but was down 0.4% from the month of December 2016. At the start of 2017, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 4.0% and has been in the3.7-3.8% range for most of the year. Virginia’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate continues to be below the national rate of 4.1%. Virginia’s seasonally adjusted nonfarm employment decreased by 2,100 jobs in December to 3,966,500, which was the third consecutive monthly decline. From November 2017 to December 2017, seasonally adjusted employment decreased in three major industry divisions, increased in seven major industry divisions, and was unchanged in mining. The largest job loss during December occurred in the professional and business services sector. From December 2016 to December 2017, Virginia’s seasonally adjusted total nonfarm employment was up 30,200 jobs, or 0.8%.Over-the-year employment growth in Virginia has been positive for 45 consecutive months. Whileover-the-year growth for the last three months of 2017 fell below 1.0% percent, growth in all the preceding months of 2017 exceeded 1.0%. Compared to a year ago, on a seasonally adjusted basis, eight of the eleven major industry divisions experienced employment gains, while the other three experienced employment losses. The largestover-the-year job gain occurred in private education and health services, up 2.7%. In December, six metropolitan areas experiencedover-the-month job gains, while the other three metropolitan areas experienced employment losses. The largest absolute job increase occurred in the Northern Virginia metropolitan area. The Richmond metropolitan area experienced the next largest job gain. The other metropolitan areas that experienced gains were: Lynchburg; Charlottesville; Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford; and Harrisonburg. The largest absolute job loss occurred in the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News metropolitan area. The other metropolitan areas that experienced job losses were Roanoke and Winchester. Over the year, seasonally adjusted total nonfarm employment increased in seven metropolitan areas, decreased in the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News metropolitan area, and remained unchanged in the Lynchburg metropolitan area. The Northern Virginia metropolitan area experienced the largest absolute job gain, up 1.4%. Richmond was ranked second, and Charlottesville was ranked third. The remaining metropolitan areas withover-the-year job gains were: Roanoke; Harrisonburg; Winchester; and Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford. Virginia’s unadjusted unemployment rate was down 0.2% in December to 3.4% and was down 0.4% from a year ago.West“West Virginia Banking Board)Board”) and must submit annual reports to the West Virginia Banking Board.

In addition to these regular examinations, United Bank must furnish to regulatory authorities quarterly reports containing full and accurate statements of its affairs.December 10, 2013,May 24, 2018, President Trump signed into law the banking agencies issued a final rule implementing Section 619 of“Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (the EGRRCPA Act)” which provides certain limited amendments to the Dodd-Frank Act, commonly referredas well as certain targeted modifications to asother post-financial crisis regulatory requirements. In addition, the “Volcker Rule”.legislation establishes new consumer protections and amends various securities- and investment company-related requirements. The EGRRCPA Act primarily amends several other laws, including the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), Federal Reserve issued an order on December 18, 2014 extending the period which banking entities have to divest disallowed securities under the Volcker Rule to July 21, 2016. TheCredit Union Act, Federal Reserve also announced its intention to grant an additional one year extension of the conformance period until July 21, 2017. On January 14, 2014, the banking agencies approved an interim final rule to permit banking entities to retain interests in certain collateralized debt obligations backed primarily by trust preferred securities (Trup Cdos) from the prohibitions under the Volcker Rule. During the third quarter of 2014 United sold four Trup Cdos for a net gain of $1.3 million in response to the Volcker Rule. Under the Volcker Rule, these four securities were identified by United as covered funds and were required to be divested of before July 21, 2017. United believes the remaining Trup Cdo portfolio is excluded from the scope of the Volcker Rule.(DIF)(“DIF”) of the FDIC. The FDIC utilizes a risk-based assessment system that imposes insurance premiums based upon a risk matrix that takes into account a bank’s capital level and supervisory rating (CAMELS rating) and certain financial measures to assess an institution’s ability to withstand asset-related stress and funding-related stress. The risk matrix utilizes four risk categories which are distinguished by capital levels and supervisory ratings.In October 2010, the FDIC adopted a new DIF restoration plan to ensure that the fund reserve ratio reaches 1.35% by September 30, 2020, as required by the Dodd-Frank Act. Under the new restoration plan, the FDIC will update its loss and income projections at least semi-annually for the fund and, if needed, will increase or decrease assessment rates, followingnotice-and-comment rulemaking if required.$7.1$12.0 million, $8.5$8.3 million, and $8.4$10.1 million in 2017, 20162022, 2021 and 2015,2020, respectively.As a financial holding company, United is subjectand United Bank are each required to consolidated regulatorycomply with applicable capital requirements administeredadequacy standards established by the Federal Reserve Board. United Bank is also subject to the capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board. On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve, United’s and United Bank’s primary federal regulator, published final rulesBoard (the Basel“Basel III Capital Rules) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. The rules implement the Basel Committee’s December 2010 framework known as “Basel III” for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Basel III Capital Rules substantially revise the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and depository institutions, including United and its banking subsidiaries, compared to the current U.S. risk-based capital rules. The Basel III Capital Rules define the components of capital and address other issues affecting the numerator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios. The Basel III Capital Rules also address risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios and replace the existing risk-weighting approach, which was derived from Basel I capital accords of the Basel Committee, with a more risk-sensitive approach based, in part, on the standardized approach in the Basel Committee’s 2004 “Basel II” capital accords. The Basel III Capital Rules also implement the requirements of Section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Act to remove references to credit ratings from the federal banking agencies’ rules. The Basel III Capital Rules were effective for United and United Bank on January 1, 2015 (subject to aphase-in period)Rules”).The Basel III Capital Rules, among other things, (i) introduce a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (CET1), (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consist of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii) define CET1 narrowly by requiring that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions/adjustments from capital as compared to existing regulations.When Since fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the Basel III Capital Rules will require United and United Bank to maintain (i) athe following:CET1Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (which is added to the 4.5% CET1 ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting(resulting in a minimum ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7% upon full implementation), (ii) a7.0%);(which is added to the 6.0% Tier 1 capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting(resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% upon full implementation), (iii) a);Totaltotal capital (that is, Tier(Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2)2 capital) to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 8.0% total capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting(resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% upon full implementation)); and (iv) a4%4.0%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets (as comparedas reported on consolidated financial statements (known as the “leverage ratio”).a currentmeet the effective minimum leverage ratioratios once the capital conservation buffer is taken into account, as detailed above, will be subject to constraints on capital distributions, including dividends and share repurchases, and certain discretionary executive compensation. The severity of 3%the constraints depends on the amount of the shortfall and the institution’s “eligible retained income” (that is, the greater of (i) net income for banking organizations that either have the highest supervisory rating or have implementedpreceding four quarters, net of distributions and associated tax effects not reflected in net income and (ii) the appropriate federal regulatory authority’s risk-adjusted measure for market risk)average net income over the preceding four quarters).also provide for a “countercyclical capital buffer” that is applicable to only certain covered institutions and is not expected to have any current applicability to United and United Bank.The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer (or below the combined capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer, when the latter is applied) will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.Under the Basel III Capital Simplification Rules the initial minimum capital ratios as of January 1, 2015 are as follows:4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets.6.0% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets.8.0% Total capital to risk-weighted assets.4.0% Tier 1 capital to average assets.The Basel III Capital Rulesalso provide for a number of deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for example, the requirement that mortgage servicing rights,certain deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments innon-consolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one such category exceeds 25% of CET1. Prior to the adoption of the Capital Simplification Rules in July 2019, amounts were deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one such category exceeded 10% of CET1 or all such categoriesitems, in the aggregate, exceedexceeded 15% of CET1. Under currentThe Capital Simplification Rules took effect for United and United Bank as of January 1, 2020. These limitations did not impact our regulatory capital standards,during any of the reported periods.arewere excluded for the purposes of determining regulatory capital ratios. Under the Basel III Capital Rules, the effects of certain accumulated other comprehensive income items are not excluded; however,non-advanced approaches banking organizations, including United and United Bank, maywere able to make aone-time permanent election to continue to exclude these items. Upon adoption on January 1, 2015,Both United and United Bank made this election in order to avoid significant variations in the level of capital depending upon the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the fair value of United’stheir available-for-sale securities portfolio. The Basel III Capital Rules also preclude certain hybrid securities, such as trust preferred securities, as Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies, subject tophase-out. However, because United was less than $15 billion in total consolidated assets for reporting periods prior to June 30, 2017,Under the Basel III Capital Rules, grandfathered United’s Trust Preferred Securities as Tier 1 capital and was thus subject to a limit of 25 percent of Tier 1 capital elements excluding anynon-qualifying capital instruments and after all regulatory capital deductions and adjustments applied to Tier 1 capital, which is substantially similar to the limit in the general risk-based capital rules.However, with the acquisition of Cardinal on April 21, 2017, United’s total consolidated assets now exceeds $15 billion. As a result, United’s Trust Preferred Securities aretrust preferred securities no longer included in United’sour Tier 1 capital but aremay nonetheless be included as a component of Tier 2 capital on a permanent basis withoutphase-out. This new requirement was reflected in United’samountsregulations to account for June 30, 2017, the first reporting period after the Cardinal acquisition.As stated, implementation of the deductions and other adjustmentschanges to CET1 began on January 1, 2015 and will bephased-in overcredit loss accounting under U.S. GAAP. The 2019 CECL Rule included a4-year period (beginning at 40% on January 1, 2015 and an additional 20% per year thereafter).

In March 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that maintains the three-year transition option of the 2019 CECL Rule and also provides banking organizations that were required under U.S. GAAP (as of January 2020) to implement CECL before the end of 2020 the option to delay for two years an estimate of the effect of CECL on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology’s effect on regulatory capital, followed by that amount on each subsequent January 1, until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019)a three-year transition period (five-year transition option). We elected to adopt the five-year transition option.expandexpanded the risk-weighting categories from the current four BaselI-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%)general risk-based capital rules to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, generally ranging from 0% for U.S. government and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures (and higher percentages for certain other types of interests), and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. Specific changes to current rules impacting United’s determination of risk-weighted assets include, among other things:Applying a 150% risk weight instead of a 100% risk weight for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans.Assigning a 150% risk weight to exposures (other than residential mortgage exposures) that are 90 days past due.Providing for a 20% credit conversion factor for the unused portion of a commitment with an original maturity of one year or less that is not unconditionally cancellable (currently set at 0%).Providing for a risk weight, generally not less than 20% with certain exceptions, for securities lending transactions based on the risk weight category of the underlying collateral securing the transaction.Providing for a 100% risk weight for claims on securities firms.Eliminating the current 50% cap on the risk weight for OTC derivatives.addition, the Basel III Capital Rules also provide more advantageous risk weights for derivatives and repurchase-style transactions cleared through a qualifying central counterparty and increases the scope of eligible guarantors and eligible collateral for purposes of credit risk mitigation.The Basel III liquidity framework also requires banks and bank holding companies to measure their liquidity against specific liquidity tests. One test, referred to as the “Liquidity Coverage Ratio” (“LCR”), is designed to ensure that the banking entity maintains an adequate level of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets equal to the entity’s expected net cash outflow for a30-day time horizon (or, if greater, 25% of its expected total cash outflow) under an acute liquidity stress scenario. The other test, referred to as the “Net Stable Funding Ratio” (“NSFR”), is designed to promote more medium- and long-term funding of the assets and activities of banking entities over aone-year time horizon. These requirements will incent banking entities to increase their holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and other sovereign debt as a component of assets and increase long-term debt as a funding source. On September 3, 2014,November 2019, the federal banking agencies finalizedadopted a rule revising the scope of commercial real estate mortgages subject to a 150% risk weight.implementing the LCR foroperational risk capital requirements and a capital floor apply only to advanced approaches banking organizationsinstitutions, and a modified version of the LCR for bank holding companies with at least $50 billion in total consolidated assets that are not advanced approaches banking organizations, neither of which would apply to United or its banking subsidiaries.United Bank.

Well-capitalized institutions are permitted to engage in a wider range of banking activities, including among other things, the accepting of “brokered deposits,” and the offering of interest rates on deposits higher than the prevailing rate in their respective markets.“satisfactory”“Satisfactory.” These individual components were a “High Satisfactory” rating for the Lending Test, an “Outstanding” rating for the Investment Test and a “High Satisfactory” rating for the Service Test. United Bank’s final overall rating, however, was downgraded to “Needs to Improve” as a result of a Fair Housing Act violation cited in the Washington DC Metropolitan Statistical Area following a FRB fair lending examination of United Bank and its most recentwholly-owned subsidiary, George Mason Mortgage, LLC. This matter was also the subject of an investigation by the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice, however, has advised United Bank in writing that it has completed its review of this matter and determined that the circumstances of this matter do not require enforcement action by the Department of Justice at this time. The FRB Performance Evaluation states that “United Bank management has taken action to address the deficiencies and committed to taking further voluntary corrective actions to prevent further violations.”March 2015,February 2018, the SEC published interpretive guidance to assist public companies in preparing disclosures about cybersecurity risks and incidents.

RISKS RELATING TO UNITED’S BUSINESSChanges in economic19political conditions could adversely affectlimit our earnings, as our borrowers’ ability to repay loans and the value of the collateral securing our loans decline.United’s success depends, to apursue certain extent, upon local and national economic and political conditions, as well as governmental monetary policies. Conditions such as an economic recession, rising unemployment, changes in interest rates, money supply and other factors beyond its control may adversely affect United’s and United Bank’s asset quality, deposit levels and loan demand and, therefore, its earnings. Because United has a significant amount of real estate loans, decreases in real estate values could adversely affect the value of property used as collateral. Adverse changes in the economy may also have a negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans, which could have an adverse impact on our earnings. Consequently, declines in the economy in our market area could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.The value of certain investment securities is volatile and future declines or other-than-temporary impairments could have a materially adverse effect on future earnings and regulatory capital.Continued volatility in the fair value for certain investment securities, whether caused by changes in market conditions, interest rates, credit risk of the issuer, the expected yield of the security, or actual defaults in the portfolio could result in significant fluctuations in the value of the securities as well as any regulatory rulemaking such as the Volcker Rule which could exclude or limit the holdings of certain investment securities. This could have a material adverse impact on United’s accumulated other comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity depending on the direction of the fluctuations. Furthermore, future downgrades, defaults or prepayments, including the liquidation of the underlying collateral in certain securities, could result in future classifications as other-than-temporarily impaired. This could have a material impact on United’s future earnings, although the impact on shareholders’ equity will be offset by any amount already included in other comprehensive income for securities that were temporarily impaired.There are no assurances as to adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.United believes that its allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level appropriate to absorb any probable losses in its loan portfolio given the current information known to management.Management establishes the allowance based upon many factors, including, but not limited to:historical loan loss experience;industry diversification of the commercial loan portfolio;the effect of changes in the local real estate market on collateral values;the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral security;current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay and value of collateral;volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio; andother factors management believes are relevant.These determinations are based upon estimates that are inherently subjective, and their accuracy depends on the outcome of future events, so ultimate losses may differ from current estimates. Changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates, that are generally beyond United’s control, can affect United’s loan losses. Continuing deterioration in economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside of United’s control, may require an increase in the allowance for credit losses. United can provide no assurance that its allowance is sufficient to cover actual loan losses should such losses differ substantially from our current estimates.strategic opportunities.addition, federal and state regulators, as an integral partthe third quarter of their respective supervisory functions, periodically review United’s allowance for loan losses, and may require an increase in the provision for loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management. Furthermore, if charge-offs in future periods exceed the allowance for loan losses,2022, United will need additional provisions to increase the allowance for loan losses. Any increases in the allowance for loan losses will result inBank received a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may have a material adverse effect on United’s business, financial condition and results of operations.Changes in interest rates may adversely affect United’s business.United’s earnings, like most financial institutions, are significantly dependent on its net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income United earns on loans and other assets which earn interest and the interest expense incurred to fund those assets, such as on savings deposits and borrowed money. Therefore, changes in general market interest rates, such as a change in the monetary policy of the Board of Governors ofCommunity Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) Performance Evaluation from the Federal Reserve System or otherwise beyond those which are contemplated by United’s interest rate risk model and policy, could have an effectBank of Richmond (the “FRB”) with a rating of “Needs to Improve.” Based on net interest income. For more information concerning United’s interest rate risk model and policy, seeits performance on the discussion underindividual components of the caption “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” under Item 7A.United is subject to credit risk.There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks with respect toCRA exam, the periodBank received a rating of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with“Satisfactory.” These individual borrowers and risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral. United seeks to mitigate the risk inherent in its loan portfolio by adhering to prudent loan approval practices. Although United believes that its loan approval criteria are appropriatecomponents were a “High Satisfactory” rating for the various kinds of loansLending Test, an “Outstanding” rating for the Company makes, United may incur losses on loans that meet our loan approval criteria. A significant decline in general economicconditions caused by inflation or deflation, recession, unemployment, changes in government fiscal and monetary policies, acts of terrorism, or other factors beyond our control could cause our borrowers to default on their loan payments, and the collateral values securing such loans to decline and be insufficient to repay any outstanding indebtedness. In such events, we could experience significant loan losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.United’s information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security.United relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct its business. In addition, as part of its business, United collects, processes and retains sensitive and confidential client and customer information. United’s facilities and systems, and those of our third party service providers, may be vulnerable to security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors, or other similar events. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in the Company’s customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems. While United has policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of the Company’s information systems could damage United’s reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject United to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose the Company to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on United’s financial condition and results of operations.Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client or customer information, whether through a cyber-attack, other breach of our computer systems or otherwise, could severely harm our business.In the normal course of our business, we collect, process and retain sensitive and confidential client and customer information on our behalf and on behalf of other third parties. Despite the security measures we have in place, our facilities and systems may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks, security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and / or human errors, or other similar events.Information security risks for financial institutions like us have increased recently in part because of new technologies, the use of the internet and telecommunications technologies (including mobile devices) to conduct financial and other business transactions and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, perpetrators of fraud, hackers, terrorists and others. In addition to cyber-attacks or other security breaches involving the theft of sensitive and confidential information, hackers have engaged in attacks against large financial institutions, particularly denial of service attacks, designed to disrupt key business services such as customer-facing web sites. We are not able to anticipate or implement effective preventive measures against all security breaches of these types. Although we employ detection and response mechanisms designed to contain and mitigate security incidents, early detection may be thwarted by persistent sophisticated attacks and malware designed to avoid detection.We also face risks related to cyber-attacks and other security breaches in connection with card transactions that typically involve the transmission of sensitive information regarding our customers through various third parties. Some of these parties have in the past been the target of security breaches and cyber-attacks, and because the transactions involve third parties and environments that we do not control or secure, future security breaches or cyber-attacks affecting any of these third parties could impact us through no fault of our own, and in some cases we may have exposure and suffer losses for breaches or attacks relating to them. We also rely on numerous other third party service providers to conduct other aspects of our business operations and face similar risks relating to them. While we conduct security assessments on our higher risk third parties, we cannot be sure that their information security protocols are sufficient to withstand a cyber-attack or other security breach.Any cyber-attack or other security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of confidential customer information could severely damage our reputation, erode confidence in the security of our systems, products and services, expose us to the risk of litigation and liability, disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business.United’s business continuity plans or data security systems could prove to be inadequate, resulting in a material interruption in, or disruption to, its businessInvestment Test and a negative impact on results of operations.United relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct its business. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems, whether due to severe weather, natural disasters, cyber-attack, acts of war or terrorism, criminal activity or other factors, could result in failures or disruptions in general ledger, deposit, loan, customer relationship management and other systems. While United has disaster recovery and other policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of United’s information systems could damage its reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject it to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose it to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations.The negative economic effects caused by terrorist attacks, including cyber-attacks, potential attacks and other destabilizing events would likely contribute to the deterioration of the quality of United’s loan portfolio and could reduce its customer base, level of deposits, and demand for its financial products such as loans.High inflation, natural disasters, acts of terrorism, including cyber-attacks, an escalation of hostilities or other international or domestic occurrences, and other factors could have a negative impact on the economy of theMid-Atlantic regions in which United operates. An additional economic downturn in its markets would likely contribute to the deterioration of the quality of United’s loan portfolio by impacting the ability of its customers to repay loans, the value of the collateral securing loans, and may reduce the level of deposits in its bank and the stability of its deposit funding sources. An additional economic downturn could also have a significant impact on the demand for United’s products and services. The cumulative effect of these matters on United’s results of operations and financial condition would likely be adverse and material.Loss of United’s Chief Executive Officer or other executive officers could adversely affect its business.United’s success is dependent upon the continued service and skills of its executive officers and senior management. If United loses the services of these key personnel, it could have a negative impact on United’s business because of their skills, years of industry experience and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel. The services of Richard M. Adams, United’s Chief Executive Officer, would be particularly difficult to replace. United and Mr. Adams are parties to an Employment Agreement providing for his continued employment by United through March 31, 2021.United operates in a highly competitive market.United faces a high degree of competition in all of the markets it serves. United considers all of West Virginia to be included in its market area. This area includes the five largest West Virginia Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA): the Parkersburg MSA, the Charleston MSA, the Huntington MSA, the Morgantown MSA and the Wheeling MSA. United serves the Ohio counties of Lawrence, Belmont, Jefferson and Washington and Fayette county in Pennsylvania primarily because of their close proximity to the Ohio and Pennsylvania borders and United banking offices located in those counties or in nearby West Virginia. United’s Virginia markets include the Maryland, northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. MSA, the Winchester MSA, the Harrisonburg MSA, and the Charlottesville MSA. United considers all of the above locations to be the primary market area“High Satisfactory” rating for the business of its banking subsidiaries.There is a risk that aggressive competition could result in United controlling a smaller share of these markets.

Banking regulations are primarily intended to protect depositors’ funds, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking system as a whole, not shareholders. These regulations affect United’s lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy, operations and growth, among other things. These regulations also impose obligations to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls, among other things, to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identities of United’s customers. Congress and federal regulatory agencies continually review banking laws, regulations and policies for possible changes. The Dodd-Frank Act, enacted in July 2010, instituted major changes to the banking and financial institutions regulatory regimes. Other changes to statutes, regulations or regulatory policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations or policies, could affect United in substantial and unpredictable ways. Such changes could subject the Company to additional costs, limit the types of financial services and products United may offer and/or increase the ability of nonbanks to offer competing financial services and products, among other things. United expends substantial effort and incurs costs to improve its systems, audit capabilities, staffing and training in order to satisfy regulatory requirements, but the regulatory authorities may determine that such efforts are insufficient. Failure to comply with relevant laws, regulations or policies could result in enforcement and other legal actions, sanctions by regulatory agencies, civil money and criminal penalties, the loss of FDIC insurance, the revocation of a banking charter, significant fines and/or reputation damage, which could have a material adverse effect on United’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In this regard, government authorities, including the bank regulatory agencies, are pursuing aggressive enforcement actions with respect to compliance and other legal matters involving financial activities, which heightens the risks associated with actual and perceived compliance failures. Directives issued to enforce such actions may be confidential and thus, in some instances, we are not permitted to publicly disclose these actions. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See the section captioned “Regulation and Supervision” included in Item 1. While the Company has policies and procedures designed to prevent any such violations, there can be no assurance that such violations will not occur.The effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on our business have not yet been fully analyzed and could have an adverse effect on our net income.On December 22, 2017, President Donald Trump signed into law H.R.1, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes significant changes to U.S. corporate income tax laws including a decrease in the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the Tax Act, United recorded additional tax expense of $37.73 million in the fourth quarter of 2017 due to a remeasurement of United’s deferred tax assets and liabilities. Reasonable estimates were made based on United’s analysis of the Tax Act. This provisional amount may be adjusted in future periods during 2018 when additional information is obtained. Additional information that may affect United’s provisional amount would include further clarification and guidance on how the IRS will implement tax reform, further clarification and guidance on how state taxing authorities will implement tax reform and the related effect on United’s state income tax returns, completion of United’s 2017 tax return filings, and the potential for additional guidance from the SEC or the FASB related to the Tax Act. United cannot determine at this time the full effects of the Tax Act on its business and financial results.(CFPB)(“CFPB”) may reshape the consumer financial laws through rulemaking and enforcement of the prohibitions against unfair, deceptive and abusive business practices. Compliance with any such change may impact the businessoperations of depository institutions offering consumer financial products or services, including United Bank.United may elect or be compelled to seek additional capital in the future, but capital may not be available when it is needed.United is required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support the Company’s operations. In addition, United may elect to raise additional capital to support the Company’s business or to finance acquisitions, if any, or United may otherwise elect to raise additional capital. In that regard, a number of financial institutions have recently raised considerable amounts of capital as a result of deterioration in their results of operations and financial condition arising from the turmoil in the mortgage loan market, deteriorating economic conditions, declines in real estate values and other factors, which may diminish United’s ability to raise additional capital.United’s ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, and on United’s financial performance. Accordingly, United cannot be assured of its ability to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. If United cannot raise additional capital when needed, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and prospects.On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve published final rules that substantially amend the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to United and United Bank. The rules implement the “Basel III” regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act, or the Basel III Capital Rules. The new rules were effective for United and United Bank are each required to comply with applicable capital adequacy standards established by the Federal Reserve Board (the “FRB”). From time to time, the FRB changes these capital adequacy standards. In particular, the capital requirements applicable to United under the Basel III rules became fully effective on January 1, 2015 (subject to aphase-in period for certain of the new rules).The Basel III Capital Rules, among other things, (i) introduce a capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1”, or CET1, (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 Capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii) define CET1 narrowly by requiring that most deductions/ adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions/adjustments from capital as compared to existing regulations, and particularly as applied to CET1.Capital Rules, the initial minimum capital and leverage ratios as of January 1, 2015 are as follows:4.5% CET1rules, United is required to risk-weighted assets.6.0%maintain a common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets.8.0% Total capital to risk-weighted assets.4.0%ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital to average assets.to raising minimum capital and leverage ratios, the Basel III Capital Rules also establish aUnited must maintain an additional capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of total risk weighted assets.is designedfail to absorb losses during periods of economic stress.

The severity of the minimum capital ratios. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation baseddepends on the amount of the shortfall.With respect to United’s banking subsidiary, United Bank,shortfall and the Basel III Capital Rules also revise the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38institution’s “eligible retained income” (that is, four quarter trailing net income, net of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, by (i) introducing a CET1 ratio requirement at each level (other than critically undercapitalized), with the required CET1 ratio being 6.5% for well-capitalized status; (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio for well-capitalized status being 8% (as compared to the current 6%);distributions and (iii) eliminating the current provision that provides that a bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3% leverage ratio and still be adequately capitalized. The Basel III Capital Rules dotax effects not change the total risk-based capital requirement for any “prompt corrective action” category.The Basel III Capital Rules prescribe a standardized approach for risk weightings that expand the risk-weighting categories from the current four BaselI-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%) to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, generally ranging from 0% for U.S. government and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures, and resultingreflected in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. In particular, the Basel III Capital Rules increase risk weights that apply topast-due exposures and high volatility commercial real estate loans.net income).requirerequires United and its subsidiaries to maintain capital buffers above minimum requirements to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and executive bonus payments. In addition, the application of more stringent capital requirements for United could, among other things, result in lower returns on invested capital, require the raising of additional capital and result in additional regulatory actions if United were to be unable to comply with such requirements. Implementation of changes to asset risk weightings for risk based capital calculations, items included or deducted in calculating regulatory capital and/or additional capital conservation buffers could result in management modifying its business strategy and could limit United’s ability to make distributions, including paying dividends.In addition, in the current economic and regulatory environment, regulators of banks and bank holding companies have become more likely to impose capital requirements on bank holding companies and banks that are more stringent than those required by applicable existing regulations.Failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in the future could impair United’s ability to accurately and timely report its financial results or prevent fraud, resulting in loss of investor confidence and adversely affecting United’s business and stock price.21Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. Management believes that United’s internal controls over financial reporting are currently effective. Management will continually review and analyze the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance. Any failure to maintain, in the future, an effective internal control environment could impact United’s ability to report its financial results on an accurate and timely basis, which could result in regulatory actions, loss of investor confidence, and adversely impact United’s business and stock price.
United could face unanticipated environmental liabilities or costs related to real property owned or acquired through foreclosure. Compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those related to investigation andclean-up of contaminated sites, could have a negative effect on expenses and results of operations.
A significant portion of United’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, United may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, United may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require United to incur substantial expenses and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit United’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase exposure to environmental liability. Although United has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on results of operations.
United’s earnings are significantly affected by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government and its agencies.
The policies of the Federal Reserve impact United significantly. The Federal Reserve regulates the supply of money and credit in the United States. Its policies directly and indirectly influence the rate of interest earned on loans and paid on borrowings and interest-bearing deposits and can also affect the value of financial instruments we hold. Those policies determine to a significant extent our cost of funds for lending and investing. Changes in those policies are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Federal Reserve policies can also affect our borrowers, potentially increasing the risk that they may fail to repay their loans. For example, a tightening of the money supply by the Federal Reserve could reduce the demand for a borrower’s products and services. This could adversely affect the borrower’s earnings and ability to repay its loan, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
New accounting or tax pronouncements or interpretationsUnited may be issuedterminated as a servicer of mortgage loans, be required to repurchase a mortgage loan or reimburse investors for credit losses on a mortgage loan, or incur costs, liabilities, fines and other sanctions if we fail to satisfy our servicing obligations, including our obligations with respect to mortgage loan foreclosure actions.
United, through its mortgage banking subsidiary, Crescent, acts as servicer for approximately $3.4 billion of mortgage loans owned by third parties as of December 31, 2022. As a servicer for those loans, United has certain contractual obligations, including foreclosing on defaulted mortgage loans or, to the extent applicable, considering alternatives to foreclosure such as loan modifications or short sales. If United commits a material breach of its obligations as servicer, United may be subject to termination as servicer if the breach is not cured within a specified period of time following notice, causing United to lose servicing income.
In some cases, United may be contractually obligated to repurchase a mortgage loan or reimburse the investor for credit losses incurred on the loan as a remedy for servicing errors with respect to the loan. If United has increased repurchase obligations because of claims that United did not satisfy our obligations as a servicer, or increased loss severity on such repurchases, United may have a significant reduction to net servicing income within its noninterest income. United may incur costs if United is required to, or if United elects to, re-execute or re-file documents or take other action in its capacity as a servicer in connection with pending or completed foreclosures. United may incur litigation costs if the validity of a foreclosure action is challenged by a borrower. If a court were to overturn a foreclosure because of errors or deficiencies in the foreclosure process, United may have liability to the borrower and/or to any title insurer of the property sold in foreclosure if the required process was not followed. These costs and liabilities may not be legally or otherwise reimbursable to United. In addition, if certain documents required for a foreclosure action are missing or defective, United could be obligated to cure the defect or repurchase the loan. United may incur liability to securitization investors relating to delays or deficiencies in its processing of mortgage assignments or other documents necessary to comply with state law governing foreclosures. The fair value of United’s mortgage servicing rights may be negatively affected to the extent our servicing costs increase because of higher foreclosure costs. United may be subject to fines and other sanctions imposed by federal or state regulators as a result of actual or perceived deficiencies in our foreclosure practices or in the foreclosure practices of other mortgage loan servicers. Any of these actions may harm United’s reputation or negatively affect its home lending or servicing business.
United may be required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify buyers against losses in some circumstances, which could harm liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.
When mortgage loans are sold, whether as whole loans or pursuant to a securitization, United is required to make customary representations and warranties to purchasers, guarantors and insurers, including the government sponsored enterprises, about the mortgage loans and the manner in which they were originated. Whole loan sale agreements require repurchase or substitute mortgage loans, or indemnification of buyers against losses, in the event United breaches these representations or warranties. In addition, United may be required to repurchase mortgage loans as a result of early payment default of the borrower on a mortgage loan. With respect to loans that are originated through United’s broker or correspondent channels, the remedies available against the originating broker or correspondent, if any, may not be as broad as the remedies available to purchasers, guarantors and insurers of mortgage loans against United. United faces further risk that the originating broker or correspondent, if any, may not have financial capacity to perform remedies that otherwise may be available. Therefore, if a purchaser, guarantor or insurer enforces its remedies against United, it may not be able to recover losses from the originating broker or correspondent. If repurchase and indemnity demands increase and such demands are valid claims and are in excess of United’s provision for potential losses, its liquidity, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

CREDIT RISKS
There are no assurances as to adequacy of the allowance for credit losses.
The FASB’s Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, effective for United as of January 1, 2020, substantially changes the accounting profession, regulatorsfor credit losses on loans, leases and other financial assets held by banks, financial institutions and other organizations. The new standard requires the recognition of credit losses on loans, leases and other financial assets based on an entity’s current estimate of expected losses over the lifetime of each loan, lease or other government bodiesfinancial asset, referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model as opposed to the previous “incurred loss” model, which could change existing accounting methods. Changesrequired recognition of losses on loans, leases and other financial assets only when those losses had incurred. Under the CECL model, United is required to present these certain financial assets, carried at amortized cost, at the net amount expected to be collected over the life of the financial asset. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on information about past events, including credit quality, our historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable macroeconomic forecasts that may affect the collectability of the reported amount. This measurement will take place at the time a financial asset is first added to the balance sheet and at least quarterly thereafter.
CECL also requires management judgment that is supported by new models and more data elements, including macroeconomic forecasts, than the previous allowance standard. This increased the complexity and associated risk, particularly in accounting methodstimes of economic uncertainty or other unforeseen circumstances, which could negatively impact United’s results of operations and capital levels as well as place stress on our internal controls over financial condition.reporting.
Current accountingThe determination of the appropriate level of allowance for credit losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and tax rules, standards, policiesrequires us to make significant estimates related to current and interpretations influenceexpected future credit risks and trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Deterioration in economic conditions affecting borrowers and securities issuers; new information regarding existing loans, credit commitments and securities holdings; natural disasters and risks related to climate change; and identification of additional problem loans, ratings down-grades and other factors, both within and outside of our control, may require an increase in the methods by which financial institutions conduct business, implement strategic initiativesallowances for credit losses on loans, securities and tax compliance,off-balance sheet credit exposures. In addition, federal and govern financial reporting and disclosures. These laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations are constantly evolvingstate regulators, as an integral part of their respective supervisory functions, periodically review United’s allowance for credit losses on loans, and may change significantly over time. Events thatrequire an increase in the provision for credit losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management. Any increases in the allowance for credit losses on loans will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may not have a direct impactmaterial adverse effect on United, such as the bankruptcy of major U.S. companies, have resulted in legislators, regulators and authoritative bodies, such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, and various taxing authorities, responding by adopting and/or proposing substantive revision to laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations. New accounting pronouncements and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements have occurred and may occur in the future. A change in accounting standards may adversely affect reportedUnited’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
See the section captioned “Provision for Credit Losses” in in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further discussion related to our process for determining the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses.
United is subject to credit risk in its loan portfolio.
There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks with respect to the period of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers and risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral. United seeks to mitigate the risk inherent in its loan portfolio by adhering to prudent loan approval practices. Although United believes that its loan approval criteria are appropriate for the various kinds of loans the Company makes, United may incur losses on loans that meet our loan approval criteria. A significant decline in general economic conditions caused by inflation or deflation, recession, unemployment, changes in government fiscal and monetary policies, acts of terrorism, or other factors beyond our control could cause our borrowers to default on their loan payments, and the collateral values securing such loans to decline and be insufficient to repay any outstanding indebtedness. In such events, we could experience significant loan losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
23
Certain of our credit exposures are concentrated in industries that may be more susceptible to the long-term risks of climate change, natural disasters or global pandemics. To the extent that these risks may have a negative impact on the financial condition of borrowers, it could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See the section captioned “Loans” in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations elsewhere in this report for further discussion related to commercial and industrial, energy, construction and commercial real estate loans.
OPERATIONAL RISKS
United’s information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security.
United relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct its business. In addition, as part of its business, United collects, processes and retains sensitive and confidential client and customer information. United’s facilities and systems, and those of our third-party service providers, may be vulnerable to security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors, or other similar events. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in the Company’s customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems. While United has policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of the Company’s information systems could damage United’s reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject United to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose the Company to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on United’s financial condition and results of operations.
Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client or customer information, whether through a cyber-attack, other breach of our computer systems or otherwise, could severely harm our business.
In the normal course of our business, we collect, process and retain sensitive and confidential client and customer information on our behalf and on behalf of other third parties. Despite the security measures we have in place, our facilities and systems may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks, security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors, or other similar events.
Information security risks for financial institutions like us have increased recently in part because of new technologies, the use of the internet and telecommunications technologies (including mobile devices) to conduct financial and other business transactions, employees working from home and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, perpetrators of fraud, hackers, terrorists and others. In addition to cyber-attacks or other security breaches involving the theft of sensitive and confidential information, hackers have engaged in attacks against large financial institutions, particularly denial of service attacks, designed to disrupt key business services such as customer-facing web sites. We are not able to anticipate or implement effective preventive measures against all security breaches of these types. Although we employ detection and response mechanisms designed to contain and mitigate security incidents, early detection may be thwarted by persistent sophisticated attacks and malware designed to avoid detection.
We also face risks related to cyber-attacks and other security breaches in connection with card transactions that typically involve the transmission of sensitive information regarding our customers through various third parties. Some of these parties have in the past been the target of security breaches and cyber-attacks, and because the transactions involve third parties and environments that we do not control or secure, future security breaches or cyber-attacks affecting any of these third parties could impact us through no fault of our own, and in some cases we may have exposure and suffer losses for breaches or attacks relating to them. We also rely on numerous other third-party service providers to conduct other aspects of our business operations and face similar risks relating to them. While we conduct security assessments on our higher risk third parties, we cannot be sure that their information security protocols are sufficient to withstand a cyber-attack or other security breach.
24
Any cyber-attack or other security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of confidential customer information could severely damage our reputation, erode confidence in the security of our systems, products and services, expose us to the risk of litigation and liability, disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business.
United’s business continuity plans or data security systems could prove to be inadequate, resulting in a material interruption in, or disruption to, its business and a negative impact on results of operations.
United relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct its business. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems, whether due to severe weather, natural disasters, cyber-attack, acts of war or terrorism, criminal activity or other factors, could result in failures or disruptions in general ledger, deposit, loan, customer relationship management and other systems. While United has disaster recovery and other policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of United’s information systems could damage its reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject it to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose it to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations.
The negative economic effects caused by terrorist attacks, including cyber-attacks, potential attacks and other destabilizing events would likely contribute to the deterioration of the quality of United’s loan portfolio and could reduce its customer base, level of deposits, and demand for its financial products such as loans.
High inflation, natural disasters, acts of terrorism, including cyber-attacks, an escalation of hostilities or other international or domestic occurrences, and other factors could have a negative impact on the economy of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions in which United operates. An additional economic downturn in its markets would likely contribute to the deterioration of the quality of United’s loan portfolio by impacting the ability of its customers to repay loans, the value of the collateral securing loans, and may reduce the level of deposits in its bank and the stability of its deposit funding sources. An additional economic downturn could also have a significant impact on the demand for United’s products and services. The cumulative effect of these matters on United’s results of operations and financial condition would likely be adverse and material.
Our growth-oriented business strategy could be adversely affected if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees or if we lose the services of our senior management team.
Our ability to manage growth will depend upon our ability to continue to attract, hire and retain skilled employees. The unanticipated loss of members of our senior management team, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and ability to execute our strategic goals. Our success will also depend on the ability of our officers and key employees to continue to implement and improve our operational and other systems, to manage multiple, concurrent customer relationships and to hire, train and manage our employees.
United’s vendors could fail to fulfill their contractual obligations, resulting in a material interruption in, or disruption to, its business and a negative impact on results of operations.
United is dependent upon third parties for certain information system, data management and processing services and to provide key components of its business infrastructure. United has entered into subcontracts for the supply of current and future services, such as data processing, mortgage loan processing and servicing, and certain property management functions. These services must be available on a continuous and timely basis and be in compliance with any regulatory requirements. Failure to do so could substantially harm United’s business.
25
United often purchases services from vendors under agreements that typically can be terminated on a periodic basis. There can be no assurance, however, that vendors will be able to meet their obligations under these agreements or that United will be able to compel them to do so. Risks of relying on vendors include the following:
If an existing agreement expires or a certain service is discontinued by a vendor, then United may not be able to continue to offer its customers the same breadth of products and its operating results would likely suffer unless it is able to find an alternate supply of a similar service.
Agreements United may negotiate in the future may commit it to certain minimum spending obligations. It is possible United will not be able to create the market demand to meet such obligations.
If market demand for United’s products increases suddenly, its current vendors might not be able to fulfill United’s commercial needs, which would require it to seek new arrangements or new sources of supply, and may result in substantial delays in meeting market demand.
United may not be able to control or adequately monitor the quality of services it receives from its vendors. Poor quality services could damage United’s reputation with its customers.
In addition, these third party service providers are sources of operational and informational security risk to United, including risks associated with operational errors, information system interruptions or breaches, and unauthorized disclosures of sensitive or confidential client or customer information. If third party service providers encounter any of these issues, or if United has difficulty communicating with them, United could be exposed to disruption of operations, loss of service or connectivity to customers, reputational damage, and litigation risk that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or our business.
Potential problems with vendors such as those discussed above could have a significant adverse effect on United’s business, lead to higher costs and damage its reputation with its customers and, in turn, have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
MARKET AND INTEREST RATE RISKS RELATING TO UNITED’S MERGER WITH CARDINAL FINANCIAL
United may failChanges in economic and political conditions could adversely affect our earnings, as our borrowers’ ability to realizerepay loans and the cost savings estimated for the merger of Cardinal.
Although United estimates that it will realize cost savings of approximately $27 million annually (excludingone-time costs and expenses associated with the merger with Cardinal) from the merger when fully phased in, it is possible that the estimatesvalue of the potential cost savings could turn outcollateral securing our loans decline.
United’s success depends, to be incorrect. For example, the combined purchasing powera certain extent, upon local and national economic and political conditions, as well as governmental monetary policies. Conditions such as an economic recession, rising unemployment, changes in interest rates, money supply and other factors beyond its control may not be as strong as expected,adversely affect United’s and United Bank’s asset quality, deposit levels and loan demand and, therefore, the cost savingsits earnings. Because United has a significant amount of real estate loans, decreases in real estate values could be reduced. In addition, future business developments may require United to continue to operate or maintain some facilities or support functions that are currently expected to be combined or reduced. The cost savings estimates also depend on United’s ability to combine the businesses of United and Cardinal in a manner that permits those costs savings to be realized. If the estimates turn out to be incorrect or United is not able to combine the two companies successfully, the anticipated cost savings may not be fully realized or realized at all, or may take longer to realize than expected.
The integration of the operations of United and Cardinal may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than anticipated.
The success of the merger of Cardinal will depend, in part, on United’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from successfully combining the businesses of United and Cardinal and to combine the businesses of United and Cardinal in a manner that permits growth opportunities and cost savings to be realized without materially disrupting the existing customer relationships of Cardinal or decreasing revenues due to loss of customers. If United is not able to achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the merger may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.
It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefitsvalue of the merger. The loss of key employees could adversely affect United’s ability to successfully conduct its businessproperty used as collateral. Adverse changes in the markets in which Cardinal now operates,economy may also have a negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans, which could have an adverse impact on our earnings. Consequently, declines in the economy in our market area could have a material adverse effect on United’sour financial condition and results of operations.
While recent economic conditions have seen improving trends since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurance that this improvement will continue. Evolving responses from federal and state governments and other regulators, and our customers or our third-party partners or vendors, to new challenges such as climate change have impacted and could continue to impact the economic and political conditions under which we operate. Economic and inflationary pressure on consumers and uncertainty regarding continuing economic improvement could result in changes in consumer and business spending, borrowing and savings habits. Such conditions could have a material adverse effect on the credit quality of our loans and our business, financial condition and results of operations.
26
The value of certain investment securities is volatile and future declines in value could have a materially adverse effect on future earnings and regulatory capital.
Continued volatility in the fair value for certain investment securities, whether caused by changes in market conditions, interest rates, credit risk of the issuer, the expected yield of the security, or actual defaults in the portfolio could result in significant fluctuations in the value of its common stock. If United experiences difficulties with the integration process,securities as well as any regulatory rulemaking such as the anticipated benefitsVolcker Rule which could exclude or limit the holdings of certain investment securities. This could have a material adverse impact on United’s accumulated other comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity depending on the direction of the mergerfluctuations. Furthermore, future downgrades, defaults or prepayments, including the liquidation of the underlying collateral in certain securities, could result in the recording of an allowance for credit losses related to these securities. This could have a material impact on United’s future earnings, although the impact on shareholders’ equity will be offset by any amount already included in other comprehensive income.
United operates in a highly competitive market.
United faces a high degree of competition in all of the markets it serves. United faces strong competition in gathering deposits, making loans and obtaining client assets for management by its investment or trust operations. United considers all of West Virginia to be included in its market area. This area includes the five largest West Virginia Metropolitan Statistical Areas (“MSA”): the Parkersburg MSA, the Charleston MSA, the Huntington MSA, the Morgantown MSA and the Wheeling MSA. United serves the Ohio counties of Lawrence, Belmont, Jefferson and Washington and Fayette county in Pennsylvania primarily because of their close proximity to the Ohio and Pennsylvania borders and United banking offices located in those counties or in nearby West Virginia. United’s Virginia markets include the Maryland, northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. MSA, the Winchester MSA, the Harrisonburg MSA, and the Charlottesville MSA. Through its acquisition of Carolina Financial, United’s market also includes the Coastal, Midlands, and Upstate regions of South Carolina, including the Charleston (Charleston, Dorchester and Berkeley Counties), Myrtle Beach (Horry and Georgetown Counties), Columbia (Richland and Lexington Counties), and the Upstate (Greenville and Spartanburg Counties) areas as well as areas in North Carolina including Wilmington (New Hanover County), Raleigh-Durham (Durham and Wake Counties), Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia (NC and SC) and the southeastern coastal region of North Carolina (Bladen, Brunswick, Columbus, Cumberland, Duplin and Robeson Counties). Through its acquisition of Community Bankers Trust, United added new markets in Baltimore and Annapolis, Maryland and Lynchburg and Richmond, Virginia as well as the Northern Neck of Virginia. United considers all of the above locations to be the primary market area for the business of its banking and mortgage banking subsidiaries.
There is a risk that aggressive competition could result in United controlling a smaller share of these markets. A decline in market share could lead to a decline in net income which would have a negative impact on shareholder value.
United may not be realized fullyadversely affected by the soundness of other financial institutions.
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or at all,other relationships. United has exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and routinely executes transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds, or other institutional clients. Defaults by financial services institutions, and even rumors or questions about a financial institution or the financial services industry in general, may take longerlead to realize than expected. As with any mergermarket wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by United or other institutions. Any such losses could adversely affect United’s financial condition or results of operations.
Changes in interest rates may adversely affect United’s business.
United’s earnings, like most financial institutions, there also may be business disruptions that cause Cardinal to lose customers or cause customers to remove their accounts from Cardinal and move their business to competing financial institutions. Integration effortsare significantly dependent on its net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the two companies will also divert management attentioninterest income United earns on loans and resources. These integration mattersother assets which earn interest and the interest expense incurred to fund those assets, such as on savings deposits and borrowed money. Therefore, changes in general market interest rates, such as a change in the monetary policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or otherwise beyond those which are contemplated by United’s interest rate risk model and policy, could have an effect on net interest income. For more information concerning United’s interest rate risk model and policy, see the discussion in Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in Part II, under Item 7A of this Form 10-K.
27
Uncertainty relating to the LIBOR determination process and LIBOR discontinuance may adversely affect our results of operations.
The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and certain other “benchmarks” are the subject of recent national, international, and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. These reforms may cause such benchmarks to perform differently than in the past or have other consequences, which cannot be predicted. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority and the administrator of LIBOR have announced that the publication of the most commonly used U.S. dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be published or cease to be representative after June 30, 2023. The publication of all other LIBOR settings ceased to be published as of December 31, 2021. The bank regulatory agencies indicated that entering into new contracts that use LIBOR as a reference rate after December 31, 2021, would create safety and soundness risks and that they would examine bank practices accordingly. The Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act, enacted in March 2022, provides a statutory framework to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR with a benchmark rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for contracts governed by U.S. law that have no or ineffective fallback, and in December 2022, the Federal Reserve Board adopted related implementing rules.
United has taken steps to ensure that no new contracts using LIBOR were originated after December 31, 2021. At this time, United intends to prioritize SOFR and Prime as the preferred alternatives to LIBOR; however, these preferred alternatives could change over time based on market developments. There can be no assurances on which benchmark rate(s) may replace LIBOR or how LIBOR will be determined for purposes of financial instruments that are currently referencing LIBOR when it ceases to exist. The discontinuance of LIBOR may result in uncertainty or differences in the calculation of the applicable interest rate or payment amount depending on the terms of the governing documents, may adversely affect the value of our floating rate obligations, loans, deposits, derivatives, and other financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates and may also increase operational and other risks to the Company and the industry.
In addition, the implementation of LIBOR reform proposals may result in increased compliance costs and operational costs, including costs related to continued participation in LIBOR and the transition to a replacement reference rate or rates. We cannot reasonably estimate the expected cost.
RISKS RELATED TO ACQUISITION ACTIVITY
Potential acquisitions may disrupt our business and dilute shareholder value
We generally seek merger or acquisition partners that are culturally similar and have experienced management and possess either significant market presence or have potential for improved profitability through financial management, economies of scale or expanded services. Acquiring other banks, businesses, or branches involves various risks commonly associated with acquisitions, including, among other things, (i) potential exposure to unknown or contingent liabilities of the target company; (ii) exposure to potential asset quality issues of the target company; (iii) potential disruption to our business; (iv) potential diversion of our management’s time and attention; (v) the possible loss of key employees and customers of the target company; (vi) difficulty in estimating the value of the target company; and (vii) potential changes in banking or tax laws or regulations that may affect the target company.
Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values, and, therefore, some dilution of our tangible book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with any future transaction. Acquisitions may also result in potential dilution to existing shareholders of our earnings per share if we issue common stock in connection with the acquisition. Furthermore, failure to realize the expected revenue increases, cost savings, increases in geographic or product presence, and/or other projected benefits from an acquisition could have a material adverse effect on eachour business, financial condition and results of Cardinaloperations. In addition, from time to time, bank regulators may restrict the Company from making acquisitions. See “Regulation and United duringSupervision” in Item 1, “Business,” of this transition periodForm 10-K for additional detail and for an undetermined period after consummationfurther discussion of the merger.
The success of the merger will also depend on United’s ability to:these matters.
28
RetainAcquisitions may be delayed, impeded, or prohibited due to regulatory issues
Acquisitions by financial institutions, including us, are subject to approval by a variety of federal and attract qualified personnelstate regulatory agencies (collectively, “regulatory approvals”). The process for obtaining these required regulatory approvals has become substantially more difficult since the global financial crisis, and our ability to Unitedengage in certain merger or acquisition transactions depends on the bank regulators’ views at the time as to our capital levels, quality of management, and Cardinal;
Maintainoverall condition, in addition to their assessment of a variety of other factors, including our compliance with law. Regulatory approvals could be delayed, impeded, restrictively conditioned or denied due to existing relationshipsor new regulatory issues we have, or may have, with depositorsregulatory agencies, including, without limitation, issues related to Bank Secrecy Act compliance, Community Reinvestment Act issues, fair lending laws, fair housing laws, consumer protection laws, unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices regulations and other laws and regulations. We may fail to pursue, evaluate or complete strategic and competitively significant acquisition opportunities as a result of Cardinalour inability, or perceived or anticipated inability, to minimize withdrawalsobtain regulatory approvals in a timely manner, under reasonable conditions or at all. Difficulties associated with potential acquisitions that may result from these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of deposits prior to and subsequent to the merger;
Maintain and enhance existing relationships with borrowers to limit unanticipated losses from loans of Cardinal;
Control the incrementalnon-interest expense from United to maintain overall operating efficiencies; and
Compete effectively in the communities served by United and Cardinal and in nearby communities.
United may not be able to manage effectively its growth resulting from the merger.operations.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH UNITED’S COMMON STOCK
United’s stock price can be volatile.
Stock price volatility may make it more difficult for United shareholders to resell their common stock when they want and at prices they find attractive. United’s stock price can fluctuate significantly in response to a variety of factors, including, among other things:
Actual or anticipated negative variations in quarterly results of operations;
Negative recommendations by securities analysts;
Poor operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to United;
News reports relating to negative trends, concerns and other issues in the financial services industry or the economy in general;
Negative perceptions in the marketplace regarding United and/or its competitors;
New technology used, or services offered, by competitors;
Adverse changes in interest rates or a lending environment with prolonged low interest rates;
Adverse changes in the real estate market;
Negative economic news;
Failure to integrate acquisitions or realize anticipated benefits from acquisitions;
Adverse changes in government regulations; and
Geopolitical conditions such as acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts.
General market fluctuations, industry factors and general economic and political conditions and events, such as economic slowdowns or recessions, interest rate changes or credit loss trends, could also cause United’s stock price to decrease regardless of operating results.
Dividend payments by United’s subsidiaries to United and by United to its shareholders can be restricted.
The declaration and payment of future cash dividends will depend on, among other things, United’s earnings, the general economic and regulatory climate, United’s liquidity and capital requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by United’s board of directors. Federal Reserve Board policy limits the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies, without regulatory approval, and requires that a holding company serve as a source of strength to its banking subsidiaries.
United’s principal source of funds to pay dividends on its common stock is cash dividends from its subsidiaries. The payment of these dividends by its subsidiaries is also restricted by federal and state banking laws and regulations. As of December 31, 2017,2022, approximately $198.8$276.2 million was available for dividend payments from United Bank to United without regulatory approval.
29
An investment in United common stock is not an insured deposit.
United common stock is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, any other deposit insurance fund or by any other public or private entity. Investment in United common stock is inherently risky for the reasons described in this section and elsewhere in this prospectus and joint proxy statementreport and is subject to the same market forces that affect the price of common stock in any company. As a result, someone who acquires United common stock, could lose some or all of their investment.
Failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in the future could impair United’s ability to accurately and timely report its financial results or prevent fraud, resulting in loss of investor confidence and adversely affecting United’s business and stock price.
Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. Management believes that United’s internal controls over financial reporting are currently effective. Management will continually review and analyze the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance. Any failure to maintain, in the future, an effective internal control environment could impact United’s ability to report its financial results on an accurate and timely basis, which could result in regulatory actions, loss of investor confidence, and adversely impact United’s business and stock price.
Certain banking laws may have an anti-takeover effect.
Provisions of federal banking laws, including regulatory approval requirements, could make it more difficult to be acquired by a third party, even if perceived to be beneficial to United’s shareholders. These provisions effectively inhibit anon-negotiated merger or other business combination, which could adversely affect the market price of United’s common stock.
GENERAL RISKS
United may elect or be compelled to seek additional capital in the future, but capital may not be available when it is needed.
United is required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support the Company’s operations. In addition, United may elect to raise additional capital to support the Company’s business or to finance acquisitions, if any, or United may otherwise elect to raise additional capital.
United’s ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, and on United’s financial performance. Accordingly, United cannot be assured of its ability to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. If United cannot raise additional capital when needed, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
New accounting or tax pronouncements or interpretations may be issued by the accounting profession, regulators or other government bodies which could change existing accounting methods. Changes in accounting methods could negatively impact United’s results of operations and financial condition.
Current accounting and tax rules, standards, policies and interpretations influence the methods by which financial institutions conduct business, implement strategic initiatives and tax compliance, and govern financial reporting and disclosures. These laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations are constantly evolving and may change significantly over time. Events that may not have a direct impact on United, such as the bankruptcy of major U.S. companies, have resulted in legislators, regulators and authoritative bodies, such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, and various taxing authorities, responding by adopting and/or proposing substantive revision to laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations. New accounting pronouncements and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements have occurred and may occur in the future. A change in accounting standards may adversely affect reported financial condition and results of operations.
30
United could face unanticipated environmental liabilities or costs related to real property owned or acquired through foreclosure. Compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those related to investigation and clean-up of contaminated sites, could have a negative effect on expenses and results of operations.
A significant portion of United’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, United may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, United may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require United to incur substantial expenses and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit United’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase exposure to environmental liability. Although United has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on results of operations.
Severe weather, natural disasters, public health issues, acts of war or terrorism, and other external events could significantly impact United’s ability to conduct business.
Severe weather, natural disasters, public health issues, acts of war or terrorism, and other external events could affect the stability of United’s deposit base, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, impair the value of collateral securing loans, adversely impact United’s employee base, cause significant property damage, result in loss of revenue, and / or cause the Company to incur additional expenses. Although management has established disaster recovery policies and procedures, the occurrence of any such event could have a material adverse effect on United’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Increasing scrutiny and evolving expectations from customers, regulators, investors, and other stakeholders with respect to United’s environmental, social and governance practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to new or additional risks.
Companies are facing increasing scrutiny from customers, regulators, investors, and other stakeholders related to their environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) practices and disclosure. Investor advocacy groups, investment funds and influential investors are also increasingly focused on these practices, especially as they relate to the environment, health and safety, diversity, labor conditions and human rights. Increased ESG-related compliance costs for United as well as among our suppliers, vendors and various other parties within our supply chain could result in increases to our overall operational costs. Failure to adapt to or comply with regulatory requirements or investor or stakeholder expectations and standards could negatively impact United’s reputation, ability to do business with certain partners, access to capital, and our stock price. New government regulations could also result in new or more stringent forms of ESG oversight and expanding mandatory and voluntary reporting, diligence, and disclosure.
Climate change and related legislative and regulatory initiatives may materially affect United’s business and results of operations.
The effects of climate change continue to create an alarming level of concern for the state of the global environment. As a result, the global business community has increased its political and social awareness surrounding the issue, and the United States has entered into international agreements in an attempt to reduce global temperatures, such as reentering the Paris Agreement. Further, the U.S. Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies continue to propose numerous initiatives to supplement the global effort to combat climate change. Similar and even more expansive initiatives are expected under the current administration, including potentially increasing supervisory expectations with respect to banks’ risk management practices, accounting for the effects of climate change in stress testing scenarios and systemic risk assessments, revising expectations for credit portfolio concentrations based on climate-related factors and encouraging investment by banks in climate-related initiatives and lending to communities disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change. The lack of empirical data surrounding the credit and other financial risks posed
31
by climate change render it impossible to predict how specifically climate change may impact our financial condition and results of operations; however, the physical effects of climate change may also directly impact us. Specifically, unpredictable and more frequent weather disasters may adversely impact the value of real property securing the loans in our portfolios. Additionally, if insurance obtained by our borrowers is insufficient to cover any losses sustained to the collateral, or if insurance coverage is otherwise unavailable to our borrowers, the collateral securing our loans may be negatively impacted by climate change, which could impact our financial condition and results of operations. Further, the effects of climate change may negatively impact regional and local economic activity, which could lead to an adverse effect on our customers and impact the communities in which we operate.
We are also subject to reputational risk from shareholder concerns about our practices related to climate change, our carbon footprint and our business relationships with customers who operate in carbon-intensive industries. Our business, reputation and ability to attract and retain employees may also be harmed if our response to climate change is perceived to be ineffective or insufficient.
Climate change also exposes us to transition risks associated with the transition to a less carbon-dependent economy. Transition risks may result from changes in policies; laws and regulations; technologies; and/or market preferences to address climate change. Such changes could materially, negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or our reputation, in addition to having a similar impact on our customers. We have customers who operate in carbon-intensive industries like oil and gas that are exposed to climate risks, such as those risks related to the transition to a less carbon-dependent economy, as well as customers who operate in low-carbon industries that may be subject to risks associated with new technologies. Federal and state banking regulators and supervisory authorities, investors and other stakeholders have increasingly viewed financial institutions as important in helping to address the risks related to climate change both directly and with respect to their customers, which may result in financial institutions coming under increased pressure regarding the disclosure and management of their climate risks and related lending and investment activities. Given that climate change could impose systemic risks upon the financial sector, either via disruptions in economic activity resulting from the physical impacts of climate change or changes in policies as the economy transitions to a less carbon-intensive environment, we face regulatory risk of increasing focus on our resilience to climate-related risks, including in the context of stress testing for various climate stress scenarios. Ongoing legislative or regulatory uncertainties and changes regarding climate risk management and practices may result in higher regulatory, compliance, credit and reputational risks and costs.

Stock
As of January 31, 2018,2023, 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $2.50 per share, were authorized for United, of which 105,070,939142,011,832 were issued, including 29,1737,266,438 shares held as treasury shares. The outstanding shares are held by approximately 6,7809,485 shareholders of record, as well as 34,78150,813 shareholders in street name as of January 31, 2018.2023. The unissued portion of United’sUnited’ s authorized common stock (subject to registration approval by the SEC) and the treasury shares are available for issuance as the Board of Directors determines advisable. United offers its shareholders the opportunity to invest dividends in shares of United stock through its dividend reinvestment plan. United has also established stock option plans and a stock bonus plan as incentive for certain eligible officers. In addition to the above incentive plans, United is occasionally involved in certain mergers in which additional shares could be issued and recognizes that additional shares could be issued for other appropriate purposes.
In DecemberOctober of 2016, United completed a registered public offering of 4,330,000 shares of its common stock. The net proceeds of the offering will be used to provide capital support for the growth of the company and other general corporate purposes.
In August of 2017,2019, United’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase plan whereby United could buy(the “2019 Plan”) to repurchase up to 2,000,0004,000,000 shares of itsthe Company’s common stock inon the open market at prevailing prices. United repurchased 2,846,989 shares under this plan. On May 11, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a new repurchase plan (the “2022 Plan”) to repurchase up to 4,750,000 shares of United’s common stock on the open market. The 2022 Plan replaced the 2019 Plan. During 2022, United repurchased 378,761 shares under the 2022 Plan. As of December 31, 2017,2022, United still has 2,000,0004,371,239 shares available for repurchase under the plan. During 2017 and 2016, no shares were repurchased under a stock repurchase plan.2022 Plan.
The Board of Directors believes that the availability of authorized but unissued common stock of United is of considerable value if opportunities should arise for the acquisition of other businesses through the issuance of United’s stock. Shareholders do not have preemptive rights, which allow United to issue additional authorized shares without first offering them to current shareholders.
Currently, United has only one voting class of stock issued and outstanding and all voting rights are vested in the holders of United’s common stock. On all matters subject to a vote of shareholders, the shareholders of United will be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock owned. Shareholders of United have cumulative voting rights with regard to election of directors.
United’s common stock is traded over the counter on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System, Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”) under the trading symbol UBSI. The closing sale price reported for United’s common stock on February 22, 2023, the last practicable date, was $40.85.
On December 23, 2008, the shareholders of United authorized the issuance of preferred stock up to 50,000,000 shares with a par value of $1.00 per share. The authorized preferred stock may be issued by the Company’s Board of Directors in one or more series, from time to time, with each such series to consist of such number of shares and to have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such series adopted by the Board of Directors. Currently, no shares of preferred stock have been issued.
The authorization of preferred stock will not have an immediate effect on the holders of the Company’s common stock. The actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock upon the rights of the holders of common stock cannot be stated until the Board of Directors determines the specific rights of any shares of preferred stock. However, the effects might include, among other things, restricting dividends on common stock, diluting the voting power of common stock, reducing the market price of common stock or impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock without further action by the shareholders. Holders of the common stock will not have preemptive rights with respect to the preferred stock.
34
There are no preemptive or conversion rights or, redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to United’s stock. All of the issued and outstanding shares of United’s stock are fully paid andnon-assessable.
Dividends

Dividends were $1.33 per share in 2017, $1.32 per share in 2016 and $1.29 per share in 2015. See “Market and Stock Prices of United” for quarterly dividend information.
The payment of dividends is subject to the restrictions set forth in the West Virginia Corporation Act and the limitations imposed by the Federal Reserve Board. Payment of dividends by United is dependent upon receipt of dividends from its Banking Subsidiaries. Payment of dividends by United Bank is regulated by the Federal Reserve System and generally, the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) is required if the total dividends declared by a state member bank in any calendar year exceeds its net profits, as defined, for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. Additionally, prior approval of the FRB is required when a state member bank has deficit retained earnings but has sufficient current year’s net income, as defined, plus the retained net profits of the two preceding years. The FRB may prohibit dividends if it deems the payment to be an unsafe or unsound banking practice. The FRB has issued guidelines for dividend payments by state member banks emphasizing that proper dividend size depends on the bank’s earnings and capital. See Note T, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 7. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Congress passed the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 to encourage corporations to provide investors with information about the company’s anticipated future financial performance, goals, and strategies. The act provides a safe haven for such disclosure; in other words, protection from unwarranted litigation if actual results are not the same as management expectations.
United desires to provide its shareholders with sound information about past performance and future trends. Consequently, any forward-looking statements contained in this report, in a report incorporated by reference to this report, or made by management of United in this report, in any other reports and filings, in press releases and in oral statements, involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. ActualForward-looking statements can be identified by the use of the words “expect,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” and other words of similar meaning. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and estimates, which although believed to be reasonable, may turn out to be incorrect, such as statements about the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed upon these estimates and statements. United cannot assure that any of these statements, estimates, or beliefs will be realized and actual results may differ from those contemplated in these “forward-looking statements.” United undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
36
The discussion in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” lists some of the factors that could differcause United’s actual results to vary materially from those contained inexpressed or implied by United’sany forward-looking statements, and such discussion is incorporated into this discussion by reference.
CORONAVIRUS (“COVID-19”) PANDEMIC
During 2020, and to a lesser extent in 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic had a severe disruptive impact on the U.S. and global economy. As the pandemic is ongoing and dynamic in nature, there are many uncertainties related to COVID-19 including, among other things, the ongoing impact to our customers, employees and vendors; the impact to the financial services and banking industry; and the impact to the economy as a whole as well as the effect of actions taken, or that may yet be taken, or inaction by governmental authorities to contain the outbreak or to mitigate its impact (both economic and health-related). Refer to our 2021 Form 10-Kfor a varietyfurther information regarding (i) the impact of factors including, but not limited to: changes in economic conditions; business conditionsthe COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and our results thereof, as well as the impact on our financial position and (ii) legislative and regulatory actions taken related to the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly as they relate to the banking and financial services industry.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be on-going, there continues to be uncertainties related to its magnitude, duration and persistent effects. This is particularly the case with the emergence, contagiousness and threat of new and different strains of the virus as well as the availability, acceptance and effectiveness of vaccines. However, United is currently unable to fully assess or predict the extent of the effects of COVID-19 on its operations and results in the banking industry; movements in interest rates; competitive pressuresfuture as the ultimate impact will depend on product pricing and services; success and timing of business strategies; the nature and extent of governmental actions and reforms; and rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards.factors that are currently unknown and/or beyond our control.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTSACQUISITIONS
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act lowered the Federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 and made numerous other tax law changes. U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires companies to recognize the effect of tax law changes in the period of enactment. As a result of the Tax Act, United recorded additional tax expense of $37.73 million in the fourth quarter of 2017 due to a remeasurement of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities. Reasonable estimates were made based on the Company’s analysis of the Tax Act. This provisional amount may be adjusted in future periods during 2018 when additional information is obtained as provided for under Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB 118”). Additional information that may affect our provisional amount would include further clarification and guidance on how the IRS will implement tax reform, further clarification and guidance on how state taxing authorities will implement tax reform and the related effect on the Company’s state income tax returns, completion of United’s 2017 tax return filings, and the potential for additional guidance from the SEC or the FASB related to the Tax Act.
MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
On April 21, 2017,3, 2021, United acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Cardinal FinancialCommunity Bankers Trust Corporation (“Cardinal”Community Bankers Trust”), a Virginia corporation headquartered in Tysons Corner,Richmond, Virginia. Immediately following the Merger, Essex Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Community Bankers Trust, merged with and into United Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United. United Bank survived the Bank Merger and continues to exist as a Virginia banking corporation. The acquisition of Cardinal expandsCommunity Bankers Trust enhanced United’s existing footprintpresence in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Statistical Area (“MSA”). Cardinal also operated George Mason Mortgage, LLC (“George Mason”), a residential mortgage lending company based in Fairfax, Virginia with offices located in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South CarolinaDC Metro MSA and took United into new markets including Baltimore, Annapolis, Lynchburg, Richmond, and the DistrictNorthern Neck of Columbia. As a result of the merger, George Mason became an indirectly-owned subsidiary of United.Virginia. It also strategically connected our Mid-Atlantic and Southeast footprints. The CardinalCommunity Bankers Trust merger was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. At consummation, CardinalCommunity Bankers Trust had assets of $4.14$1.79 billion, portfolio loans and leases, net of $3.31unearned income of $1.28 billion and deposits of $3.34$1.52 billion.
In addition, after the close of business on June 3, 2016,On May 1, 2020, United acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Bank of Georgetown, a privately held community bankCarolina Financial Corporation (“Carolina Financial”), headquartered in Washington, D.C.Charleston, South Carolina. Immediately following the Merger, CresCom Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Carolina Financial, merged with and into United Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United (the “Bank Merger)”. United Bank survived the Bank Merger and continues to exist as a Virginia banking corporation. The acquisition of Bank of Georgetown enhances United’sCarolina Financial afforded United the opportunity to expand its existing footprint in North Carolina and South Carolina. The merger resulted in a combined company with more than 200 locations in some of the Washington, D.C. MSA.best banking markets in the United States. CresCom Bank owned and operated Crescent Mortgage Company (“Crescent”), which is based in Atlanta. Crescent is approved to originate loans in 48 states partnering with community banks, credit unions and mortgage brokers. As a result of the merger, Crescent became an indirectly-owned subsidiary of United. The Carolina Financial merger was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. At consummation, Bank of GeorgetownCarolina Financial had assets of approximately $1.28$5.00 billion, loans and leases, net of $999.77 million,unearned income of $3.29 billion and deposits of $971.37 million.$3.87 billion.

TRANSITION FROM THE LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)
In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, publicly announced its intention to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit the rates used to calculate LIBOR after 2021. ICE Benchmark Administration (the publisher of LIBOR) discontinued publication of the one-week and two-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings on December 31, 2021, and will cease the publication of overnight, one-month, three-month, six-month, and twelve-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings on June 30, 2023. It is assumed that LIBOR will either cease to be provided by any administrator or will no longer be representative of an acceptable market benchmark after these respective dates. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation have issued joint supervisory guidance encouraging banks to cease entering into any new contracts using LIBOR by December 31, 2021. Accordingly, United took steps to ensure compliance with the joint supervisory guidance, and no new contracts using LIBOR have been originated after December 31, 2021.
Working groups comprised of various regulators and other industry groups have been formed in the United States and other countries in order to provide guidance on this topic. In particular, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) has been formed in the United States by the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The ARRC has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative reference rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR. The ARRC has also published recommended fall-back language for LIBOR-linked financial instruments, among numerous other areas of guidance. In addition, the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act, enacted in March 2022, provides a statutory framework to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR with a benchmark rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for contracts governed by U.S. law that have no or ineffective fallback, and in December 2022, the Federal Reserve Board adopted related implementing rules. At this time, however, it is unclear to what extent these recommendations will be broadly accepted by industry participants, whether they will continue to evolve, and what other alternatives may be adopted by the broader markets that utilize LIBOR as a reference rate. United has formed a project team comprised of individuals across various lines of business throughout the company to identify risks, monitor market developments, evaluate replacement benchmark alternatives, and manage the company’s transition away from LIBOR. At this time, United is prioritizing SOFR and Prime as the preferred alternatives to LIBOR; however, these preferred alternatives could change over time based on market developments.
United has loans, derivative contracts, borrowings, and other financial instruments that are directly or indirectly dependent on LIBOR. The transition from LIBOR will cause changes to payment calculations for existing contracts that use LIBOR as the reference rate. These changes will create various risks surrounding the financial, operational, compliance and legal aspects associated with changing certain elements of existing contracts. United will also be subject to risks surrounding changes to models and systems that currently use LIBOR reference rates, as well as market and strategic risks that could arise from the use of alternative reference rates. Additionally, United could face reputational risks if this transition is not managed appropriately with its customers. While the full impact of the transition is not yet known, failure to adequately manage the transition could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

INTRODUCTION
The following discussion and analysis presents the more significant changes in financial condition as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the results of operations of United and its subsidiaries for each of the periods indicated below.years then ended. This discussion and the consolidated financial statements and the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of United Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated. Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after December 31, 2017,2022, but prior to the date these financial statements were issued, for potential recognition or disclosure required in these financial statements. Refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022 (the 2021 Form 10-K) for a discussion and analysis of the more significant factors that affected periods prior to 2021.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unauditedaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this document.
USE OFNON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This discussion and analysis contains certain financial measures that are not recognized under GAAP. Under SEC Regulation G, public companies making disclosures containing financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP must also disclose, along with each“non-GAAP” financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of thenon-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing thenon-GAAP financial measure.
Generally, United has presented thesea non-GAAP financial measuresmeasure because it believes that these measures providethis measure provides meaningful additional information to assist in the evaluation of United’s results of operations or financial position. Presentation of thesea non-GAAP financial measuresmeasure is consistent with how United’s management evaluates its performance internally and thesethis non-GAAP financial measures aremeasure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the banking industry. Specifically, this discussion contains certain references to financial measures identified astax-equivalent (“FTE”) net interest income the allowance for loan losses as a percentage ofnon-acquired loans and noninterest income excluding a net gainreturn on the sale of bank premises, noncash, other-than-temporary impairment charges on certain investment securities and net gains and losses from sales and calls of investment securities.average tangible equity. Management believes thesenon-GAAP financial measures to be helpful in understanding United’s results of operations or financial position.
Net interest income is presented in this discussion on a tax-equivalent basis. The tax-equivalent basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is a non-GAAP measure, United’s management believes this measure is more widely used within the financial services industry and provides better comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. United uses this measure to monitor net interest income performance and to manage its balance sheet composition.
Average tangible equity is calculated as GAAP total shareholders’ equity minus total intangible assets. Tangible equity can thus be considered a more conservative valuation of the company. When considering net income, a return on average tangible equity can be calculated. Management provides a return on average equity to facilitate the understanding of as well as to assess the quality and composition of United’s capital structure. This measure, along with others, is used by management to analyze capital adequacy and performance.
However, thisnon-GAAP information should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Where the non-GAAP financial measures aremeasure is used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as reconciliation to that comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing thenon-GAAP financial measure, can be found within this discussion and analysis. Investors should recognize that United’s presentation of thesethis non-GAAP financial measuresmeasure might not be comparable to a similarly titled measuresmeasure at other companies.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of United conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments, which are reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, are based on information available as
39
of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the financial statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the valuation of investment securities and the related other-than-temporary impairment analysis, the accounting for acquired loans and the calculation
of the income tax provision, and the use of fair value measurements to account for certain financial instruments to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available. The most significant accounting policies followed by United are presented in Note A, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’sis an estimate of the probableexpected credit losses inherent inon financial assets measured at amortized cost to present the lending portfolio.net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date. Such allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset (contractual term). Determining the allowance for loan losses requires management to make estimates of expected credit losses that are highly uncertain and require a high degree of judgment. At December 31, 2017,2022, the allowance for loan losses was $76.6$234.75 million and is subject to periodic adjustment based on management’s assessment of current probableexpected credit losses in the loan portfolio. Such adjustment from period to period can have a significant impact on United’s consolidated financial statements. To illustrate the potential effect on the financial statements of our estimates of the allowance for loan losses, a 10% increase in the allowance for loan losses would have required $7.7$23.47 million in additional allowance (funded by additional provision for creditloan losses), which would have negatively impacted the year of 20172022 net income by approximately $4.1$18.54 million,after-tax or $0.04$0.14 diluted per common share. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the appropriate provision for loan losses is based upon a quarterly evaluation of the loan portfolio. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires significant estimates, including estimates related to the amounts and timing of future cash flows, value of collateral, losses on pools of homogeneous loans and leases based on historical loss experience, and consideration of qualitative factors such as current economic trends, all of which are susceptible to constant and significant change. The allowance allocated to specific credits and loan pools grouped by similar risk characteristics is reviewed on a quarterly basis and adjusted as necessary based upon subsequent changes in circumstances. In determining the components of the allowance for loan losses, management considers the risk arising in part from, but not limited to, qualitative factors which include charge-off and delinquency trends, current economic and business conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, lending policies and procedures, the size and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, concentrations of credit, and other various factors. The methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses is described in Note A, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. A discussion of the factors leading to changes in the amount of the allowance for loan losses is included in the Provision for LoanCredit Losses section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)(“MD&A”). For a discussion of concentrations of credit risk, see Item 1, under the caption of Loan Concentrations in this Form10-K.
Investment Securities
Accounting estimates are used in the presentation of the investment portfolio and these estimates impact the presentation of United’s financial condition and results of operations. United classifies its investments in debt as either held to maturity or available for sale and its equity securities as available for sale. Securities held to maturity are accounted for using historical costs, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities available for sale are accounted for at fair value, with the net unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax effects, presented as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. When available, fair values of securities are based on quoted prices or prices obtained from third party vendors. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data. Prices obtained from third party vendors that do not reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales are not adjusted by management. Where prices reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales, as is the case with United’s portfolio of trust preferred securities (Trup Cdos), management estimates fair value based on a discounted cash flow methodology using appropriately adjusted discount rates reflecting nonperformance and liquidity risks. Due to the subjective nature of this valuation process, it is possible that the actual fair values of these securities could differ from the estimated amounts, thereby affecting United’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The potential impact to United’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for changes in the valuation process cannot be reasonably estimated.
If the estimated value of investments is less than the cost or amortized cost, the investment is considered impaired and management evaluates whether an event or change in circumstances has occurred that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. If such an event or change has occurred, management must exercise judgment to determine the nature of the potential impairment (i.e., temporary or other-than-temporary) in order to apply the appropriate accounting treatment. If United intends to sell, or is more likely than not they will be required to sell an impaired debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current period credit loss, other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in earnings. The amount recognized in earnings is equal to the entire difference between the security’s
amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If United does not intend to sell, and is not more likely than not they will be required to sell the impaired debt security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss, the other-than-temporary impairment is separated into the following: 1) the amount representing the credit loss, which is recognized in earnings, and 2) the amount related to all other factors, which is recognized in other comprehensive income. For additional information on management’s consideration of investment valuation and other-than-temporary impairment, see Note C and Note U, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting for Acquired Loans
Loans acquired are initially recorded at their acquisition date fair values. The fair value of the acquired loans is based on the present value of the expected cash flows, including principal, interest and prepayments. Periodic principal and interest cash flows are adjusted for expected losses and prepayments, then discounted to determine the present value and summed to arrive at the estimated fair value. Fair value estimates involve assumptions and judgments as to credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, liquidity risk, default rates, loss severity, payment speeds, collateral values and discount rate.
Acquired loans are divided into loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration, which are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic310-30 (acquired impaired) and loans that do not meet this criteria, which are accounted for under ASC topic310-20 (acquired performing). Acquired impaired loans have experienced a deterioration of credit quality from origination to acquisition for which it is probable that United will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable, including both principal and interest. In the assessment of credit quality, numerous assumptions, interpretations and judgments must be made, based on internal and third-party credit quality information and ultimately the determination as to the probability that all contractual cash flows will not be able to be collected. This is a point in time assessment and inherently subjective due to the nature of the available information and judgment involved.
Subsequent to the acquisition date, United continues to estimate the amount and timing of cash flows expected to be collected on acquired impaired loans. Increases in expected cash flows will generally result in a recovery of any previously recorded allowance for loan losses, to the extent applicable, and/or a reclassification from the nonaccretable difference to accretable yield, which will be recognized prospectively. The present value of any decreases in expected cash flows after the acquisition date will generally result in an impairment charge recorded as a provision for loan losses, resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses.
For acquired performing loans, the difference between the acquisition date fair value and the contractual amounts due at the acquisition date represents the fair value adjustment. Fair value adjustments may be discounts (or premiums) to a loan’s cost basis and are accreted (or amortized) to interest income over the loan’s remaining life using the level yield method. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the methods utilized to estimate the required allowance for loan losses for these loans is similar to originated loans.
See Note B and D, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding United’s acquired loans disclosures.
Income Taxes
United’s calculation of income tax provision is inherently complex due to the various different tax laws and jurisdictions in which we operate and requires management’s use of estimates and judgments in its determination. The current income tax liability also includes income tax expense related to our uncertain tax positions as required in ASC topicTopic 740, “Income Taxes.” Changes to the estimated accrued taxes can occur due to changes in tax rates, implementation of new business strategies, resolution of issues with taxing authorities and recently enacted statutory, judicial and regulatory guidance. These changes can be material to the Company’s operating results for any particular reporting period. The analysis of the income tax provision requires the assessments of the relative risks and merits of the appropriate tax treatment of transactions, filing positions, filing methods and taxable income calculations after considering statutes, regulations, judicial precedent and other information. United strives to keep abreast of changes in the tax laws and the issuance of regulations which may impact tax reporting and provisions for income tax expense. United is also subject to audit by
federal and state authorities. Because the application of tax laws is subject to varying interpretations, results of these audits may produce indicated liabilities which differ from United’s estimates and provisions. United continually evaluates its exposure to possible tax assessments arising from audits and records its estimate of probable exposure based on current facts and circumstances. The potential impact to United’s operating results for any of the changes cannot be reasonably estimated. See Note M,O, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding United’s ASC topicTopic 740 disclosures.

United determines the fair value of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC topicTopic 820, whereby the fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC topicTopic 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy for disclosure of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether the inputs in the methodology for determining fair value are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market-based information obtained from independent sources (Level 1 or Level 2), while unobservable inputs reflect management’s estimate of market data (Level 3). For assets and liabilities that are actively traded and have quoted prices or observable market data, a minimal amount of subjectivity concerning fair value is needed. Prices and values obtained from third party vendors that do not reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales are not adjusted by management. When quoted prices or observable market data are not available, management’s judgment is necessary to estimate fair value.
At December 31, 2017,2022, approximately 11.91%15.67% of total assets, or $2.27$4.62 billion, consisted of financial instruments recorded at fair value. Of this total, approximately 85.90%98.92% or $1.95$4.57 billion of these financial instruments used valuation methodologies involving observable market data, collectively Level 1 and Level 2 measurements, to determine fair value. Approximately 14.10%1.08% or $319.98$50.11 million of these financial instruments were valued using unobservable market information or Level 3 measurements. Most of these financial instruments valued using unobservable market information were Trup Cdos classified asavailable-for-sale.loans held for sale at our mortgage banking segment. At December 31, 2017,2022, only $477$561 thousand or less than 1% of total liabilities were recorded at fair value. This entire amount was valued using methodologies involving observable market data. United does not believe that any changes in the unobservable inputs used to value the financial instruments mentioned above would have a material impact on United’s results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. See Note UW for additional information regarding ASC topicTopic 820 and its impact on United’s financial statements.
Any material effect on the financial statements related to these critical accounting areas is further discussed in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Securities in anwith the most significant gross unrealized loss positionlosses at December 31, 20172022 consisted primarily of Trup Cdos, single issue trust preferred securities and agency commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities. The Trup Cdos and the single issue trust preferred securities relate mainly to securities of financial institutions. The agency commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, relate tostate and political subdivision securities, agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and residential properties and provide a guaranty of full and timely payments of principal and interest by the issuing agency.
As of December 31, 2017,2022, United’s available for sale mortgage-backed securities had an amortized cost of $1.28$2.12 billion, with an estimated fair value of $1.27$1.85 billion.

The Trup Cdos consisted of pools of trust preferred securities issued by trusts related primarily to financial institutions and to a lesser extent, insurance companies. The Company has no exposure to Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) in its investment portfolio. The Company owns both senior and mezzanine tranches in the Trup Cdos; however, the Company does not own any income notes. The senior and mezzanine tranches of Trup Cdos generally have some protection from defaults in the form of over-collateralization and excess spread revenues, along with waterfall structures that redirect cash flows in the event certain coverage test requirements have failed. Generally, senior tranches have the greatest protection, with mezzanine tranches subordinated to the senior tranches, and income notes subordinated to the mezzanine tranches. The fair value of senior tranches represents $4.97 million of the Company’s pooled securities, while mezzanine tranches represent $29.30 million. Of the $29.30 million in mezzanine tranches, $6.23 million are now in the Senior position as the Senior notes have been paid to a zero balance. As of December 31, 2017, Trup Cdos with a fair value of $2.85 million were investment grade, and the remaining $31.42 million were below investment grade.

(1) “Performing” refers to all outstanding issuers less issuers that have either defaulted or are currently deferring their interest payment.
(2) “Expected Deferrals and Defaults” refers to projected future defaultsDuring 2022, United did not recognize any credit losses on performing collateral and does not include the projected defaults on deferring collateral.
(3) The “Discount” in the table above represents the Par Value less the Amortized Cost. This metric generally approximates the level of OTTI that has been incurred on these securities.
The Company defines “Excess Subordination” as all outstanding collateral less the sum of (i) 100% of the defaulted collateral, (ii) the sum of the projected net loss amounts for each piece of the deferring but not defaulted collateral and (iii) the amount of each Trup Cdo’s debt that is either senior to or pari passu with our security’s priority level.
The calculation of excess subordination in the above table does not consider the OTTI the Company has recognized on these securities. While the ratio of excess subordination provides some insight on overall collateralization levels, the Company completes an expected cash flow analysis each quarter to determine whether an adverse change in future cash flows has occurred under ASC topic 320. The standard specifies that a cash flow projection should be present-valued at the security specific effective interest rate and the resulting present value compared to the amortized cost in order to quantify the credit component of impairment. The Company utilizes the cash flow models to determine the net realizable value and assess whether additional OTTI has occurred.
While the ratio of excess subordination provides some insight on overall collateralization levels, the Company does not utilize this ratio to calculate OTTI. The ratio of excess subordination represents only one component of the projected cash flow. The Company believes the excess subordination is limited as it does not consider the following:
Waterfall structure and redirection of cash flows
Excess interest spread
Cash reserves
The collateral backing of a particular tranche can be increased by decreasing the more senior liabilities of the Trup Cdo tranche. This occurs when collateral deterioration due to defaults and deferrals triggers alternative waterfall provisions of the cash flow. The waterfall structure of the bond requires the excess spread to be rerouted away from the most junior classes of debt (which includes the income notes) in order to pay down the principal of the most senior liabilities. As these senior liabilities are paid down, the senior and mezzanine tranches become better secured (due to the rerouting away from the income notes). Therefore, variances will exist between the calculated excess subordination measure and the amount of OTTI recognized due to the impact of the specific structural features of each bond as it relates to the cash flow models.

During 2017, United recognized net other-than-temporary impairment charges totaling $60 thousand on onenon-agency residential mortgage-backed security, which is not expected to be sold. Other than the securities that have already been deemed to beother-than-temporarily impaired, management does not believesecurities. Management believes that any otherdecline in value on an individual security with an unrealized loss as of December 31, 2017 is other-than-temporarily impaired. United believes the decline in value2022 resulted from changes in market interest rates, credit spreads and liquidity, not an adverse change in the expected contractual cash flows.a deterioration of credit. Based on a review of each of the securities in the available for sale investment portfolio, management concluded that it was not probablemore-likely-than-not that it would be unableable to realize the cost basis investment and appropriate interest payments on such securities. United has the intent and the ability to hold these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature. As of December 31, 2022, there was no allowance for credit losses related to the Company’s available for sale securities. However, United acknowledges that any impaired securities in an unrealized loss position may be sold in future periods in response to significant, unanticipated changes in asset/liability management decisions, unanticipated future market movements or business plan changes.
Further information regarding the amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities, including remaining maturities as well as a more detailed discussion of management’s other-than-temporary impairment analysis, is presented in Note C, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following discussion explains in more detail the consolidated results of operations by major category.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents the primary component of United’s earnings. It is the difference between interest income from earning assets and interest expense incurred to fund these assets. Net interest income is impacted by changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in market interest rates. Such changes, and their impact on net interest income in 20172022 and 2016,2021, are presented below.
Net interest income for the year of 20172022 was $549.00$896.43 million, which was an increase of $123.67$153.70 million or 29.08%20.69% from the year of 2016.2021. The $123.67$153.70 million increase in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $153.47$206.87 million while total interest expense only increased $29.80$53.18 million from the year of 2016.2021. Generally, interest income for the year of 20172022 increased from the year of 2016 because2021 due mainly to a higher amount of interest earning assets, mainly as result of the Community Bankers Trust acquisition and organic loan growth, and an increase in the yield on those earning assets added frommainly as a result of a rise in market interest rates. Interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in the Cardinal acquisition. In addition,amount of interest-bearing funds, mainly as result of the Community Bankers Trust acquisition and to partially fund loan accretion on acquired loans for the year of 2017 increased from the same time period last year.growth, as well as an increase in market interest rates which resulted in higher funding costs. For the purpose of this remaining discussion, net interest income is presented on atax-equivalent basis to provide a comparison among all types of interest earning assets. Thetax-equivalent basis adjusts for thetax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is anon-GAAP measure, United’s management believes this measure is

The lower amount of net charge-offs for the year of 2022 as compared to the year of 2021 was primarily due to charge-offs recognized on several large commercial credits in 2021.

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the opinion of management, the collection of principal and interest in accordance with the loan contract is doubtful. At December 31, 2017, impaired loans were $454.43 million, which was an increase of $145.99 million or 47.33% from the $308.44 million in impaired loans at December 31, 2016. This increase was due mainly to the acquired impaired loans from Cardinal and the Company’s exposure to the oil, gas and coal industry. Acquired impaired loans are accounted for under ASC Subtopic310-30. The recorded investment balance and the contractual principal balance of the acquired impaired loans were $210.52 million and $285.96 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017 as compared to $171.60 million and $231.10 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016. For the acquired impaired loans accounted for under ASC310-30, the difference between the contractually required payments due and the cash flows expected to be collected, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as thenon-accretable difference (the credit mark). The credit mark is not recognized in income. The remaining credit mark was $60.15 million and $58.88 million at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. For further details regarding impaired loans, see Note 5 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
United maintains an allowance for loan and lease losses and a reserve for lending-related commitments. The combined allowance for loan and lease losses and reserve for lending-related commitments are referred to asis considered the allowance for credit losses. At December 31, 2017,2022, the allowance for credit losses was $77.31$280.94 million as compared to $73.82$247.46 million at December 31, 2016.2021.
At December 31, 2017,2022, the allowance for loan and lease losses was $76.63$234.75 million as compared to $72.78$216.02 million at December 31, 2016.2021. The increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses was due mainly to an increase in outstanding loans as well as lower forecasted Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) and a higher forecasted unemployment rate within the reasonable and supportable forecast. This increase was offset slightly due to improvement in historical loss rates and a decrease in allocations established for individually assessed loans. As a percentage of loans and leases, net of unearned income, the allowance for loan losses was 0.59%1.14% at December 31, 20172022 and 0.70%1.20% at December 31, 2016, respectively.2021. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to nonperforming loans and leases or coverage ratio was 45.41%400.33% and 64.25%238.00% at December 31, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, respectively. The Company’s detailed methodology and analysis indicated a minimal increase in the allowance for loan losses primarily because of the offsetting factors of changes within historical loss rates and reduced loss allocations on impaired loans.
For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the provision for loan losses was $28.41 million and $24.51 million, respectively. Net charge-offs were $24.55 million for the year of 2017 as compared to net charge-offs of $27.46 million for the year of 2016. The higher amounts of provision expense for the year of 2017 compared to the year of 2016this ratio was due mainly to an increasea decline in loss factors pertaining to the Company’s exposure to the oil, gas and coal industry. The lower amount of net charge-offs for the year of 2017 was due to thecharge-off in 2016 of a large loan relationship which had deteriorated to the point ofnon-collectability. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.20% for the year of 2017. The reserve for lending-related commitments at December 31, 2017 was $679 thousand, a decrease of $365 thousand or 34.96% from December 31, 2016. Changes to the reserve for lending-related commitments are recorded in other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.nonperforming loans.

United continues to evaluate risks which may impact its loan and lease portfolios. Reserves are initially determined based on losses identified from the PD/LGD and Cohort models which utilize the Company’s historical information. Then, any qualitative adjustments are applied to account for the Company’s view of the five years ended December 31:future and other factors. If current conditions underlying any qualitative adjustment factor were deemed to be materially different than historical conditions, an adjustment was made for that factor.

The year of 2022 qualitative adjustments include analyses of the following:
|
United evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses and its loan administration policies are focused upon the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio and lending-related commitments. United’s process for evaluating the allowance is a formal company-wide process that focuses on early identification of potential problem credits and procedural discipline in managing and accounting for those credits. This process determines the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses, allocation among loan types and lending-related commitments, and the resulting provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses includes the provision for loan losses and a provision for lending-related commitments included in other expenses.
• | Reasonable and supportable forecasts – The forecast is determined on a portfolio-by-portfolio basis by relating the correlation of real GDP and the unemployment rate to loss rates to forecasts of those variables. The reasonable and supportable forecast selection is subjective in nature and requires more judgment compared to the other components of the allowance. Assumptions for the economic variables were the following: |
Ø | The forecast for real GDP shifted downward in the fourth quarter, from a projection of 1.20% for 2023 as of mid-September 2022 to 0.50% for 2023 as of mid-December with projections of 1.60% for 2024 and 1.80% for 2025. The unemployment rate forecast shifted slightly upward compared to the third quarter of 2022 with an increasing trend expected throughout 2024 and 2025. |
Allocations are made for specific commercial loans based upon management’s estimate of the borrowers’ ability to repay and other factors impacting collectibility. Other commercial loans not specifically reviewed on an individual basis are evaluated based on historical loss percentages applied to loan pools that have been segregated by risk. Allocations for loans other than commercial loans are made based upon historical loss experience adjusted for current environmental conditions. The allowance for credit losses includes estimated probable inherent but unidentified losses within the portfolio due to uncertainties in economic conditions, delays in obtaining information, including unfavorable information about a borrower’s financial condition, the difficulty in identifying triggering events that correlate perfectly to subsequent loss rates, and risk factors that have not yet fully manifested themselves in loss allocation factors. In addition, a portion of the allowance accounts for the inherent imprecision in the allowance for credit losses analysis.
Ø | Reversion to historical loss data occurs via a straight-line method during the year following the one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. |
The following table presents the allocation of United’s allowance for credit losses for each of the five years ended December 31:

United’s company-wide review of the allowance for loan and lease losses at December 31, 20172022 produced increased allocationsreserves in onethree of the four loan categories.categories as compared to December 31, 2021. The residential real estate reserve increased $9.82 million. The real estate construction and development loan pool reserve increased $8.99 million. The consumer loan pool reserve increased $2.75 million. Each of these increases were primarily due to increased outstanding balances. The allowance related to the commercial, financial & agricultural loan pool allocation increased $11.72 million primarily due to an increase in other commercial loans deemed impaired necessitating specific allowance allocation. Offsetting these increases was adecreased $2.84 million. This decrease in the allocation related to the real estate construction and land development loan pool of $3.42 million due to recognition of losses previously allocated. The residential real estate loan pool allocation decreased $3.84 millionis due to improvement in the Bank’s collateral position for a significant relationship and reduction of impairment allocation required as well as an improvement in historical loss rates. The consumer loan pool also experiencedrates and a decrease of $324 thousand due to an improvement in historical loss rates. In summary, the overall level of the allowanceallocations established for loan losses was relatively stable in comparison toyear-end 2016 as a result of offsetting factors within the portfolio as described above.individually assessed loans.

Measuring impairmentexpected credit losses of a loan requires judgment and estimates, and the eventual outcomes may differ from those estimates. Impairment isExpected credit losses are measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows from the loan discounted at the loan’s effective rate the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. When the selected measure is less than the recorded investment in the loan, an impairmentexpected credit loss has occurred. The allowance for impaired loans and leases that were individually assessed was $22.35$1.27 million at December 31, 20172022 and $23.42$6.53 million at December 31, 2016.2021.

Management believes that the allowance for credit losses of $77.31$280.94 million at December 31, 20172022 is adequate to provide for probableexpected losses on existing loans and lending-related commitments based on information currently available. United’s loan administration policies are focused on the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio in terms of loan approval and credit quality. The commercial loan portfolio is monitored for possible concentrations of credit in one or more industries. Management has lending limits as a percentage of capital per type of credit concentration in an effort to ensure adequate diversification within the portfolio. Most of United’s commercial loans are secured by real estate located in West Virginia, southeastern Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, and the District of Columbia. It is the opinion of management that these commercial loans do not pose any unusual risks and that adequate consideration has been given to these loans in establishing the allowance for credit losses.
The provision for credit losses related to held to maturity securities for the year of 2022 and 2021 was immaterial. The allowance for credit losses related to held to maturity securities was $18 thousand as of December 31, 2022 as compared to $19 thousand as of December 31, 2021. There was no provision for credit losses recorded on available for sale investment securities for the year of 2022 and 2021 and no allowance for credit losses on available for sale investment securities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Loan interest payment deferrals granted by United under the CARES Act ended on of January 1, 2022. Therefore, United released all of its remaining $8 thousand in reserves in the year of 2022 related to these loan interest payment deferrals granted under the CARES Act as compared to the release of $242 thousand in the year of 2021. The allowance for accrued interest receivables not expected to be collected as of December 31, 2021 was $8 thousand.

Additionally, management has disclosed all known material credits, which cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment schedules.

Since interest rates, loan demand and deposit levels are impacted by inflation, the resulting changes in the interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are included in net interest income. Similarly, operating expenses such as salaries, rents and maintenance include changing prices resulting from inflation. One item that would not reflect inflationary changes is depreciation expense. Subsequent to the acquisition of depreciable assets, inflation causes price levels to rise; therefore, historically presented dollar values do not reflect this inflationary condition. With inflation levels at relatively low levelsInflationary pressure on consumers and monetaryuncertainty regarding the economy could result in changes in consumer and fiscal policies being implemented to keepbusiness spending, borrowing and savings habits. Such conditions could have a material adverse effect on the inflation rate increases within an acceptable range, management expectscredit quality of our loans and our business, financial condition and results of operations. Management will monitor the impact of inflation would continue to be minimal in the near future.as conditions warrant.
The Effect of Regulatory Policies and Economic Conditions
United’s business and earnings are affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government, its agencies and various other governmental regulatory authorities. The Federal Reserve Board regulates the supply of money in order to influence general economic conditions. Among the instruments of monetary policy available to the Federal Reserve Board are (i) conducting open market operations in United States government obligations, (ii) changing the discount rate on financial institution borrowings, (iii) imposing or changing reserve requirements against financial institution deposits, and (iv) restricting certain borrowings and imposing or changing reserve requirements against certain borrowings by financial institutions and their affiliates. These methods are used in varying degrees and combinations to affect directly the availability of bank loans and deposits, as well as the interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits.
United’s business and earnings are also affected by general and local economic conditions. In 2014, certainCertain credit markets experiencedcan experience difficult conditions and volatility. Downturns in the credit market can cause a decline in the value of certain loans and securities, a reduction in liquidity and a tightening of credit. A downturn in the credit market often signals a weakening economy that can cause job losses and thus distress on borrowers and their ability to repay loans. Uncertainties in credit markets and the economy present significant challenges for the financial services industry.
Regulatory policies and economic conditions have had a significant effect on the operating results of financial institutions in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future; however, United cannot accurately predict the nature, timing or extent of any effect such policies or economic conditions may have on its future business and earnings.
Contractual Obligations, Commitments, Contingent Liabilities andOff-Balance Sheet Arrangements
United has various financial obligations, including contractual obligationsLiquidity and commitments, that may require future cash payments. The table below presents, by payment date, significant known contractual obligations to third parties as of December 31, 2017:

As of December 31, 2017, United recorded a liability for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, of $3.37 million. This liability represents an estimate of tax positions that United has taken in its tax returns which may ultimately not be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. Since the ultimate amount and timing of any future cash settlements cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty, this estimated liability is excluded from the contractual obligations table.
United also enters into derivative contracts, mainly to protect against adverse interest rate movements on the value of certain assets or liabilities, under which it is required to either pay cash to or receive cash from counterparties depending on changes in interest rates. Derivative contracts are carried at fair value and not notional value on the consolidated balance sheet. Because the derivative contracts recorded on the balance sheet at December 31, 2017 do not represent the amounts that may ultimately be paid under these contracts, they are excluded from the preceding table. Further discussion of derivative instruments is included in Note Q, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
United is a party to financial instruments withoff-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters of credit. United’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for the loan commitments and standby letters of credit is the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. United uses the same policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does foron-balance sheet instruments. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

LiquidityCapital Resources
In the opinion of management, United maintains liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and the credit needs of its customers. Like all banks, United depends upon its ability to renew maturing deposits and other liabilities on a daily basis and to acquire new funds in a variety of markets. A significant source of funds available to United
61
is “core deposits.”deposits”. Core deposits include certain demand deposits, statement and special savings and NOW accounts. These deposits are relatively stable, and they are the lowest cost source of funds available to United. Short-term borrowings have also been a significant source of funds. These include federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase as well as advances from the FHLB. Repurchase agreements represent funds thatwhich are obtained as the result of a competitive bidding process.
Liquid assets are cash and those items readily convertible to cash. All banks must maintain sufficient balances of cash and near-cash items to meet theday-to-day demands of customers and United’s cash needs. Other than cash and due from banks, the available for sale securities portfolio and maturing loans are the primary sources of liquidity.
The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the ability to access funding thatwhich enables United to efficiently satisfy the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers and meet United’s cash needs. Liquidity is managed by monitoring fundsfunds’ availability from a number of primary sources. Substantial funding is available from cash and cash equivalents, unused short-term borrowings,borrowing and a geographically dispersed network of branches providing access to a diversified and substantial retail deposit market.
Short-term needs can be met through a wide array of outside sources such as correspondent and downstream correspondent federal funds and utilization of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Other sources of liquidity available to United to provide long-term as well as short-term funding alternatives, in addition to FHLB advances, are long-term certificates of deposit, lines of credit, borrowings that are secured by bank premises or stock of United’s subsidiaries and issuances of trust preferred securities. In the normal course of business, United through its Asset Liability Committee evaluates these as well as other alternative funding strategies that may be utilized to meet short-term and long-term funding needs. See Notes JL and K,M, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Capital Resources
United’s capital position is financially sound. United seeks to maintain a proper relationship between capital and total assets to support growth and sustain earnings.

The December 31, 2022 ratios reflects United’s election of a five-year transition provision, allowed by the Federal Reserve Board and other federal banking agencies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to delay for two years the full impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. The regulatory requirements for a well-capitalized financial institution are a risk-based capital ratio of 10.0%, a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.0% and a leverage ratio of 5.0%. See Note T, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Total shareholders’ equity was $3.24$4.52 billion at December 31, 2017, increasing $1.00 billion2022, which was a decrease of $202.44 million or 44.94%4.29% from December 31, 20162021. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease of $327.84 million in accumulated other comprehensive income due mainly to an after-tax decrease in the Cardinal acquisition.fair value of available for sale securities as a result of a rising interest rate environment. In addition, treasury stock increased $79.79 million or 46.76% due to the repurchase of 2,259,546 shares of United common stock under stock repurchase plans approved by United’s Board of Directors. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase of $184.65 million in retained earnings (net income less dividends declared).
United’s equity to assets ratio was 17.00%15.31% at December 31, 20172022 as compared to 15.41%16.09% at December 31, 2016.2021.

Bank of Georgetown added $219.78 million in investment securities, including purchase accounting amounts, upon consummation of the acquisition. Securities available for sale increased $192.88 million or 18.09%. This change in securities available for sale reflects $215.06 million acquired from Bank of Georgetown, $513.74 million in sales, maturities and calls of securities,
$504.98 million in purchases, and a decrease of $12.42 million in market value. Securities held to maturity decreased $5.84 million or 14.94% fromyear-end 2015 due to calls and maturities of securities. Other investment securities increased $12.42 million or 12.57% fromyear-end 2015. Bank of Georgetown added $4.72 million in other investment securities. Otherwise, Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) stock increased $7.94 million and FHLB stock decreased $1.05 million.
Other assets increased $36.59 million or 9.67% fromyear-end 2015. The cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance policies increased $16.29 million, of which $13.03 million was acquired from Bank of Georgetown while the remaining increase was due to an increase in the cash surrender value. The remainder of the increase in other assets is the result of an increase of $10.81 million in deferred tax assets and an increase of $5.11 million in core deposit intangibles. Partially offsetting these increases in other assets is a decrease of $1.30 million in income tax receivable.
Total liabilities increased $1.41 billion or 12.96% fromyear-end 2015. This increase in total liabilities was due mainly to an increase of $1.46 billion or 15.58% in deposits, mainly due to the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. Partially offsetting these increases in liabilities, is a $56.70 million decrease in borrowings. Shareholders’ equity increased $523.11 million or 30.54% fromyear-end 2015 due primarily to the acquisition of Bank of Georgetown, a common stock offering, and earnings less dividends paid for the year of 2016.
The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits was due mainly to increases in commercial noninterest-bearing deposits of $423.39 million or 21.11%, personal noninterest-bearing deposits of $53.10 million or 10.18% and noninterest-bearing public funds of $12.26 million or 13.82% as a result of the Bank of Georgetown acquisition.
All major categories of interest-bearing deposits except time deposits under $100,000 increased fromyear-end 2015 as the result of the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. Interest-bearing checking accounts increased $94.84 million or 5.63% mainly due to a $73.72 million increase in commercial interest-bearing checking accounts and a $15.67 million increase in public interest-bearing checking accounts. In addition, personal interest-bearing checking accounts increased $5.45 million. Interest-bearing MMDAs increased $783.33 million or 33.10% as commercial MMDAs increased $486.58 million or 35.95% and personal MMDAs increased $178.85 million or 18.18%. In addition, public MMDAs increased $62.14 million and brokered MMDAs increased $56.26 million. Time deposits over $100,000 increased $177.06 million or 16.04% due to brokered deposits increasing $95.49 million, as a result of the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. In addition, Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) deposits increased $82.25 million, which was partially offset by fixed rate and variable rate certificates of deposits (CDs) over $100,000 decreasing $46.39 million and $11.48 million, respectively. Regular savings increased $29.15 million or 4.21%. Time deposits under $100,000 decreased $101.42 million or 12.77%. This decrease in time deposits under $100,000 is the result of a $102.18 million decrease in fixed rate CDs and a $10.64 million decrease in variable rate CDs due to a low interest rate environment and rate competition.
Sinceyear-end 2015, short-term borrowings decreased $213.48 million or 50.46% due to decreases of $110 million and $103.48 million in short-term FHLB advances and short-term securities sold under agreements to repurchase, respectively. Long-term borrowings increased $156.78 million or 15.44% sinceyear-end 2015 as long-term FHLB advances increased $156.83 million. Bank of Georgetown added $67.66 million in long-term borrowings, including purchase accounting amounts. Accrued expenses and other liabilities at December 31, 2016 increased $9.09 million or 10.75% fromyear-end 2015. In particular, the pension liability increased $3.15 million, dividends payable increased $2.35 million, deferred compensation increased $2.22 million, and incentives payables increased $1.10 million. Partially offsetting these increases in accrued expenses and other liabilities was a decrease of $1.52 million in derivative liabilities.
Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2016 increased $523.11 million or 30.54% from December 31, 2015 mainly as a result of the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. The Bank of Georgetown transaction added approximately $264.51 million as 6,527,746 shares were issued from United’s authorized but unissued shares for the merger at a cost of approximately $253.80 million. In addition, a common stock offering in the fourth quarter of 2016 added approximately $199.92 million as 4,330,000 shares were issued from United’s authorized but unissued shares. Earnings net of dividends for the year of 2016 were $48.39 million. Accumulated other comprehensive income decreased $6.51 million or 17.02%. United’s available for sale investment portfolio, net of deferred income taxes, decreased $8.23 million. Theafter-tax pension accounting adjustment atyear-end 2016 resulted in a decline of $1.84 million. Partially offsetting these decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income was theafter-tax accretion of pension costs of $3.11 million for the year of 2016.
EARNINGS SUMMARY
Net income for the year 2016 was $147.08 million or $1.99 per diluted share compared to $137.96 million or $1.98 per diluted share for the year of 2015. United’s return on average assets for the year of 2016 was 1.10% and return on average shareholders’ equity was 7.67% as compared to 1.12% and 8.10% for the year of 2015. United’s Federal Reserve peer group’s (bank holding companies with total assets over $10 billion) most recently reported average return on assets and average return on equity were 0.90% and 7.96%, respectively, for the first nine months of 2016. As previously mentioned, United completed its acquisition of Bank of Georgetown after the close of business on June 3, 2016. The financial results of Bank of Georgetown are included in United’s results from the acquisition date. As a result, the year of 2016 was impacted by increased levels of average balances, income, and expense as compared to the year of 2015 due to the acquisition. In addition, the year of 2016 included $6.13 million of merger and acquisition expenses related to the Bank of Georgetown acquisition and the planned merger with Cardinal Financial Corporation.
Net interest income for the year of 2016 was $425.33 million, an increase of $41.21 million or 10.73% from the prior year. The increase in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $46.71 million while total interest expense only increased $5.50 million from the year of 2015.
The provision for credit losses was $24.51 million for the year 2016 as compared to $22.57 million for the year of 2015. Noninterest income was $70.03 million for the year of 2016, down $3.59 million or 4.88% when compared to the year of 2015 due mainly to the effect of Durbin Amendment. Noninterest expense was $248.20 million, an increase of $16.51 million or 7.13% for the year of 2016 when compared to 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased general operating and merger-related expenses from the Bank of Georgetown acquisition.
Income tax expense for the year of 2016 was $75.58 million as compared to $65.53 million for the year of 2015. United’s effective tax rate was approximately 33.9% and 32.2% for years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as compared to 33.35% for 2014.
The following discussion explains in more detail the results of operations by major category.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents the primary component of United’s earnings. It is the difference between interest income from earning assets and interest expense incurred to fund these assets. Net interest income is impacted by changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in market interest rates. Such changes, and their impact on net interest income in 2016 and 2015, are presented below.
Net interest income for the year of 2016 was $425.33 million, which was an increase of $41.21 million or 10.73% from the year of 2015. The $41.21 million increase in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $46.71 million while total interest expense only increased $5.50 million from the year of 2015.
Generally, interest income for the year of 2016 increased from prior year because of the earning assets added from the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. In addition, loan accretion on acquired loans for the year of 2016 increased from the same time period last year. For the purpose of this remaining discussion, net interest income is presented on atax-equivalent basis to provide a comparison among all types of interest earning assets. Thetax-equivalent basis adjusts for thetax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is anon-GAAP measure, United’s management believes this measure is more widely used within the financial services industry and provides better comparability of net interest income arising from taxable andtax-exempt sources. United uses this measure to monitor net interest income performance and to manage its balance sheet composition.
Tax-equivalent net interest income for the year of 2016 was $431.45 million, an increase of $40.84 million or 10.46% from the year of 2015. This increase intax-equivalent net interest income was primarily attributable to an increase in average earning assets from the Bank of Georgetown acquisition. Average earning assets increased $1.01 billion or 9.25% from the year of 2015 as average net loans increased $866.95 million or 9.58% for the year of 2016. Average investment securities increased $59.23 million or 4.70%. In addition, the average yield on earning assets increased 6 basis
points from the year of 2015 due to additional loan accretion of $10.07 million on acquired loans and higher market interest rates. Partially offsetting the increases totax-equivalent net interest income for the year of 2016 was an increase of 3 basis points in the average cost of funds as compared to the year of 2015 due to higher market interest rates. The net interest margin of 3.62% for the year of 2016 was an increase of 4 basis points from the net interest margin of 3.58% for the year of 2015.
Provision for Loan Losses
For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the provision for loan losses was $24.51 million and $22.57 million, respectively. Net charge-offs were $27.46 million for the year of 2016 as compared to net charge-offs of $22.38 million for the year of 2015. These higher amounts of provision expense and net charge-offs for 2016 compared to 2015 were due to thecharge-off of a $6.6 million relationship in the second quarter of 2016. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.28% for the year of 2016. The reserve for lending-related commitments at December 31, 2016 was $1.04 million, an increase of $108 thousand or 11.54% from December 31, 2015.
At December 31, 2016, the allowance for loan losses was $72.77 million as compared to $75.73 million at December 31, 2015. As a percentage of loans, net of unearned income, the allowance for loan losses was 0.70% at December 31, 2016 and 0.81% at December 31, 2015. In accordance with accounting rules, United is unable to carry-over an acquired banking company’s previously established allowance for loan losses because acquired loans are recorded at fair value. Therefore, due to this acquisition accounting impact on the allowance for loans losses as well as loans, net of unearned income, management believes that excluding acquired loans in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans, net of unearned income separates the difference in the accounting rules for acquired loans and originated loans as well as provides for improved comparability to prior periods and to other financial institutions without acquired loans. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans or coverage ratio was 64.25% and 59.76% at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The Company’s detailed methodology and analysis indicated a minimal increase in the allowance for loan losses primarily because of changes within historical loss rates.
Other Income
Noninterest income for the year of 2016 was $70.03 million, which was a decrease of $3.59 million from the year of 2015 due mainly to the impact of the Durbin Amendment being effective for United on July 1, 2015. As previously mentioned, the Durbin Amendment, passed as part of the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation, limits fees for debit card processing paid by merchants to banking companies with assets in excess of $10 billion.
Fees from deposit services were $32.86 million for the year of 2016, a decrease of $5.10 million or 13.45% from the year of 2015. This decrease was due to the impact of the Durbin Amendment. Specifically, fees from debit card transactions declined $2.90 million for the year of 2016 as compared to year of 2015. In addition, income from overdraft fees declined $1.57 million for the year of 2016.
Mortgage banking income for the year of 2016 increased $943 thousand or 37.61% due to increased production and sales of mortgage loans in the secondary market. Mortgage loan sales were $156.57 million in the year of 2016 as compared to $143.84 million in the year of 2015.
Fees from bankcard transactions increased $429 thousand or 8.96% as compared to the year of 2015 due to a higher volume of transactions.
Income from bank owned life insurance policies increased $237 thousand or 4.26% in 2016 as compared to 2015 due to death benefits recorded in the third quarter of 2016.
Other Expense
Noninterest expense for the year of 2016 was $248.20 million, an increase of $16.51 million or 7.13% from the year of 2015. Generally, the increase was primarily due to increased general operating and merger-related expenses as a result of the Bank of Georgetown acquisition.
Employee compensation for the year of 2016 increased $5.16 million or 5.85% from the year of 2015. Included in employee compensation for the year of 2016 were merger severance charges of $670 thousand. Otherwise, base salaries increased $2.52 million or 2.94% due mainly to merit increases. Also, expense for employee incentives increased $1.76 million.
Employee benefits expense increased $1.88 million or 6.94% due mainly to an increase of $1.09 million in health insurance costs due to higher premiums. Pension expense increased $308 thousand. United uses certain valuation methodologies to measure the fair value of the assets within United’s pension plan which are presented in Note N, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The funded status of United’s pension plan is based upon the fair value of the plan assets compared to the projected benefit obligation. The determination of the projected benefit obligation and the associated periodic benefit expense involves significant judgment and estimation of future employee compensation levels, the discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. If United assumes a 1% increase or decrease in the estimation of future employee compensation levels while keeping all other assumptions constant, the benefit cost associated with the pension plan would increase by approximately $743 thousand and decrease by approximately $685 thousand, respectively. If United assumes a 1% increase or decrease in the discount rate while keeping all other assumptions constant, the benefit cost associated with the pension plan would decrease by approximately $1.95 million and increase by approximately $2.35 million, respectively. If United assumes a 1% increase or decrease in the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets while keeping all other assumptions constant, the benefit cost associated with the pension plan would decrease by approximately $1.12 million and increase by approximately $1.12 million, respectively.
Net occupancy expense increased $3.23 million or 13.28% for the year of 2016 as compared to the year of 2015 as building rental expense increased $2.13 million due to charges of $1.58 million for the termination of leases for closed offices in the Bank of Georgetown acquisition and higher lease costs.
Other real estate owned (OREO) expense increased $2.23 million or 61.75% for the year of 2016 as compared to the year of 2015 due to decreases in the fair value on OREO properties.
Equipment expense decreased $412 thousand or 4.56% due to a decline in depreciation expense.
Data processing expense increased $413 thousand due mainly to the Bank of Georgetown acquisition.
Other expenses increased $3.59 million or 6.56% for the year of 2016 as compared to the year of 2015. Included in other expense were merger-related expenses of $2.55 million.
Income Taxes
For the year ended December 31, 2016, income taxes were $75.58 million, compared to $65.53 million for 2015. United’s effective tax rate was approximately 33.9% and 32.2% for years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as compared to 33.4% for 2014. The lower effective tax rate in 2015 was due to the release of the income tax reserves in the third quarter due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for examinations of certain years and historical tax credits recognized in the first quarter.
Item 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
The objective of United’s Asset/Liability Management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within United’s policy guidelines. This objective is accomplished through the management of balance sheet liquidity and interest rate risk exposures due to changes in economic conditions, interest rate levels and customer preferences.
Interest Rate Risk
Management considers interest rate risk to be United’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in United’s net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. United’s earnings are largely dependent on the effective management of interest rate risk.
Management of interest rate risk focuses on maintaining consistent growth in net interest income within Board-approved policy limits. United’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO)(“ALCO”), which includes senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk to maintain an acceptable level of change to net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Policy established for interest rate risk is stated in terms of the change in net interest income over aone-year andtwo-year horizon given an immediate and sustained increase or decrease in interest rates. The current limits approved by the Board of Directors are structured on a staged basis with each stage requiring specific actions.
United employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its exposure to changing interest rates. One such technique utilizes an earnings simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to movements in interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on andoff-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities. The model also includes executive management projections for activity levels in product lines offered by United. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. Rate scenarios could involve parallel or nonparallel shifts in the yield curve, depending on historical, current, and expected conditions, as well as the need to capture any material effects of explicit or embedded options. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management’s strategies.
Interest sensitive assets and liabilities are defined as those assets or liabilities that mature or are repriced within a designated time frame. The principal function of managing interest rate risk is to maintain an appropriate relationship between those assets and liabilities that are sensitive to changing market interest rates. The difference between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities for specified periods of time is known as the “GAP.” Earnings-simulation analysis captures not only the potential of these interest sensitive assets and liabilities to mature or reprice, but also the probability that they will do so. Moreover, earnings-simulation analysis considers the relative sensitivities of these balance sheet items and projects their behavior over an extended period of time. United closely monitors the sensitivity of its assets and liabilities on anon-going basis and projects the effect of various interest rate changes on its net interest margin.

The following table shows United’s estimated consolidated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 20172022 and 2016:December 31, 2021:
Change in Interest Rates | Percentage Change in Net Interest Income | Percentage Change in Net Interest Income | ||||||
(basis points) | December 31, 2017 | December 31, 2016 | December 31, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | ||||
+200 | (1.22%) | (2.05%) | (6.83%) | 4.61% | ||||
+100 | (0.48%) | (1.05%) | (3.00%) | 2.70% | ||||

-200 | —- | —- | 2.16% | (2.42%) |
GivenAt December 31, 2022, given an immediate, sustained 100 basis point upward shock to the yield curve used in the simulation model, it is estimated that net interest income for United wouldis estimated to decrease by 0.48%3.00% over one year as compared to an increase of 2.70% at December 31, 2017, as compared to a decrease of 1.05% as of December 31, 2016.2021. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained upward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated 1.22%6.83% over one year as of December 31, 2017,2022, as compared to a decreasean increase of 2.05%4.61% as of December 31, 2016.2021. A 100 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would decreaseincrease net interest income by an estimated 0.18%2.12% over one year as of December 31, 2017,2022 as compared to an increasea decrease of 1.87%0.98%, over one year as of December 31, 2016. With the federal funds rate at 1.50% at December 31, 2017 and 0.75% at December 31, 2016, management believed a2021. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained declinedownward shock in rates was highly unlikely.the yield curve would increase net interest income by an estimated 2.16% over one year as of December 31, 2022 as compared to a decrease of 2.42% over one year as of December 31, 2021.
In addition to theone-year one year earnings sensitivity analysis, atwo-year analysis is also performed. Compared to the one year one analysis, United is projected to show improved performance in year two within the upward rate shock scenarios. Given an immediate, sustained 100 basis point upward shock to the yield curve used in the simulation model, net interest income
for United is estimated to increase by 1.73%0.75% in year two as of December 31, 2017.2022. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained upward shock in the yield curve would increase net interest income by an estimated 3.12%0.08% in year two as of December 31, 2017.2022. A 100 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated 1.67%2.32% in year two as of December 31, 2017.2022. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated 8.34% in year two as of December 31, 2022.
This analysis does not include the potential increased refinancing activities, which should lessen the negative impact on net income from falling rates. While it is unlikely market rates would immediately move 100 or 200 basis points upward or downward on a sustained basis, this is another tool used by management and the Board of Directors to gauge interest rate risk. All of these estimated changes in net interest income are and were within the policy guidelines established by the Board of Directors.
To further aid in interest rate management, United’s subsidiary banks are membersbank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)(“FHLB”). The use of FHLB advances provides United with a low risk means of matching maturities of earning assets and interest-bearing funds to achieve a desired interest rate spread over the life of the earning assets. In addition, United uses credit with large regional banks and trust preferred securities to provide funding.
As part of its interest rate risk management strategy, United may use derivative instruments to protect against adverse price or interest rate movements on the value of certain assets or liabilities and on future cash flows. These derivatives commonly consist of interest rate swaps, caps, floors, collars, futures, forward contracts, written and purchased options. Interest rate swaps obligate two parties to exchange one or more payments generally calculated with reference to a fixed or variable rate of interest applied to the notional amount. United accounts for its derivative activities in accordance with the provisions of ASC topicTopic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”
Extension Risk
A key feature of most mortgage loans is the ability of the borrower to repay principal earlier than scheduled. This is called a prepayment. Prepayments arise primarily due to sale of the underlying property, refinancing, or foreclosure. In general, declining interest rates tend to increase prepayments, and rising interest rates tend to slow prepayments. Like other fixed-income securities, when interest rates rise, the value of mortgage- related securities generally declines. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of mortgage-related securities and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If interest rates rise, United’s holdings of mortgage-related securities may experience reduced returns if the borrowers of the underlying mortgages pay off their mortgages later than anticipated. This is generally referred to as extension risk.
65
At December 31, 2017,2022, United’s mortgage related securities portfolio had an amortized cost of $1.3$2.1 billion, of which approximately $787$934.1 million or 61%44% were fixed rate collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs)(“CMOs”). These fixed rate CMOs consisted primarily of planned amortization class (PACs)(“PACs”),sequential-pay and accretion directed (VADMs)(“VADMs”) bonds having an average life of approximately 4.35.5 years and a weighted average yield of 2.51%2.12%, under current projected prepayment assumptions. These securities are expected to have very littlemoderate extension risk in a rising rate environment. Current models show that an immediate, sustained upward shock of 300 basis points, the average life of these securities would only extend to 4.96.5 years. The projected price decline of the fixed rate CMO portfolio in rates up 300 basis points would be 11.9%15%, or less than the price decline of a5- year7-year treasury note. By comparison, the price decline of a30-year current 5% coupon mortgage backed security (MBS) given an immediate, sustained upward shock of(“MBS”) in rates higher by 300 basis points would be approximately 19.4%18.9%.
United had approximately $255$600.6 million in balloon and other securitiesfixed rate Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities (CMBS) with a projected yield of 2.16%2.02% and a projected average life of 4.24.7 years on December 31, 2017.2022. This portfolio consisted primarily of Freddie Mac Multifamily K securities and Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS) mortgage backed(“DUS”) securities (MBS) with a weighted average loan age (WALA)maturity (“WAM”) of 3.9 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM) of 4.68 years.
United had approximately $78$27.8 million in15-year mortgage backed securities with a projected yield of 2.23%2.02% and a projected average life of 3.74.8 years as of December 31, 2017.2022. This portfolio consisted of seasoned15-year mortgage paper with a weighted average loan age (WALA)(“WALA”) of 4.33.3 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM)(“WAM”) of 10.312 years.
United had approximately $76$353.7 million in20-year mortgage backed securities with a projected yield of 2.73%1.82% and a projected average life of 5.37.1 years on December 31, 2017.2022. This portfolio consisted of seasoned20-year mortgage paper with a weighted average loan age (WALA)(“WALA”) of 4.71.8 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM)(“WAM”) of 14.918.1 years.

Allowance for Loan Losses
Description of the Matter | The Company’s loan portfolio totaled $20.6 billion as of December 31, 2022, and the associated allowance for loan losses (ALL) for the loan portfolio was $235 million. As discussed in Notes A and F to the consolidated financial statements, the ALL is an estimate of the expected credit losses on loans at amortized cost to present the net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date. The ALL is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset. Management pools its loans based on similar risk characteristics and assigns an appropriate calculation method to estimate the expected credit losses. For loans that do not share risk characteristics, management evaluates the ALL on an individual basis based on the present value of expected future cash flows using the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. For loans not specifically reviewed on an individual basis, management measures the ALL using a probability of default/loss given default method or cohort method based on portfolio segment. Management also records qualitative adjustments to expected credit losses for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level or term as well as reasonable and supportable forecast adjustments for changes in macroeconomic and environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, gross domestic product or other relevant factors, that have not been fully captured in the allowance calculation. | |
Auditing management’s estimate used in determining the ALL for the loan portfolio involved a high degree of subjectivity in evaluating management’s determination of the forecast selection used to derive the reasonable and supportable forecast qualitative adjustment. | ||
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s ALL process for the loan portfolio. Controls tested included, among others, those over the risk rating process, management’s review and approval of the calculations used to determine the ALL, including the underlying data and data inputs and outputs of those calculations, and management’s evaluation and review of the qualitative adjustments, including the reasonable and supportable forecast qualitative adjustment. | |
To test the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecast qualitative adjustment for the loan portfolio, we tested the underlying data used in the estimate calculation to determine it was accurate, complete and relevant. Further, we evaluated management’s basis for the adjustment in relation to changes in economic conditions and forecasts. Our procedures included evaluating management’s inputs and assumptions used in determining the qualitative adjustment by comparing the information to internal and external source data including, among others, the economic forecasts utilized by the Company and third-party economic outlook reports. We involved our internal modeling specialists in evaluating the model performance. In addition, we evaluated the overall ALL amount, inclusive of the qualitative adjustments, and whether the amount appropriately reflects losses expected in the loan portfolios as of the consolidated balance sheet date. For example, we evaluated the Company’s analysis of their historical loss experience and peer losses to the Company’s recorded ALL to test the ALL in totality. We also reviewed subsequent events and transactions and considered whether they corroborate or contradict the Company’s conclusion. |

The mortgage banking segment engages primarily in the origination and acquisition of residential mortgages for sale into the secondary market thoughthrough George Mason Mortgage, LLC (George Mason)(“George Mason”) and Crescent Mortgage Company (“Crescent”), an indirectly owned subsidiarysubsidiaries of United.
In addition, United, through Crescent, may retain the rights to service a portion of the loans sold in the third-party market as part of its mortgage banking activities, for which United receives service fee income. In addition, at certain times United may purchase or sell rights to service from or to third parties. These rights are known as mortgage servicing rights, or MSRs, where the owner of the MSR acts on behalf of the mortgage loan owner and has the contractual right to receive a stream of cash flows in exchange for performing specified mortgage servicing functions.
The Cardinal acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method and their results of operations have been included in the United’s consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date (April 21, 2017).
In addition, $1,483,987,000 was reclassed from noninterest-bearing deposits to interest-bearing deposits on United’s Consolidated Balance Sheets for the period ended December 31, 2021 due to the nature of the underlying deposit accounts and a misclassification in the previous presentation. This reclassification did not impact any other amounts reported or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations have been made.

The accrual of interest income on commercial and most consumer loans generally is discontinued when a loan becomes 90 to 120 days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, unpaid interest recognized in income in the current year is reversed, and interest accrued in prior years is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral exceeds the principal balance and accrued interest, and the loan is in the process of collection.
Loans are designated as impaired when, in the opinion of management, based on current information and events, the collection of principal and interest in accordance with the loan contract is doubtful. Consistent with United’s existing method of income recognition for loans, interest on impaired loans, except those classified as nonaccrual, is recognized as income using the accrual method. United’s method of income recognition for impaired loans that are classified as nonaccrual is to recognize interest income on the cash basis or apply the cash receipt to principal when the ultimate collectibility of principal is in doubt.

In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management makes allocations to specific commercial loans classified by management as to risk. Management determines the loan’s risk by considering the borrowers’ ability to repay, the collateral securing the credit and other borrower-specific factors that may impact collectibility. For impaired loans, specific allocations are based on the present value of expected future cash flows using the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral ifat the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. These individually evaluated loans are removed from their respective pools and typically represent collateral dependent loans.

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets relating to the estimated fair value of the deposit base of the acquired institutions are being amortized on an accelerated basis over a one to seven-year period. Management reviews intangible assets on an annual basis, or sooner if indicators of impairment exist, and evaluates changes in facts and circumstances that may indicate impairment in the carrying value. United incurred amortization expense of $7,772,000, $3,944,000, and $3,420,000 in 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively, related to all intangible assets.
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives (such as a trade name intangible) are not amortized, but are tested for impairment at least annually or sooner if indicators of impairment exist. Intangible assets with definite useful lives (such as core deposit intangibles) are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment at least annually or as indicators of impairment are identified. Based on the most recent goodwill impairment test, no impairment was noted. As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, total goodwill approximated $1,478,380,000 and $863,767,000, respectively.
Fair value hedges may be eligible for offset on the consolidated balance sheets because they are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. United has elected not to offset the assets and liabilities subject to such arrangements on the consolidated financial statements.

hedge accounting by preparers. ASUNo. 2017-12 is2022-03
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2017-09, “Stock Compensation, Scope of Modification Accounting.” This ASU clarifies when changes to the terms of conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. Companies will apply the modification accounting guidance if the value, vesting conditions or classification2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the award changes.amendment is permitted. ASUnew guidance should reduce diversity in practice and result in fewer changes to the terms of an award being accounted for as modifications, as the guidance will allow companies to make certainnon-substantive changes to awards without accounting for them as modifications. It does not change the accounting for modifications. ASUNo. 2017-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017; early adoption was permitted. ASUNo. 2017-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
However, ASU
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (topic 350).” ASU2017-04 eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value. ASU2017-04 is effective for United on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and management is currently evaluating the possible impact this standard may have on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” ASU2017-01 changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluation when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. ASU2017-01 was effective for United on January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU2016-09 will change certain aspects of accounting for share-based payments to employees. The new guidance will, amongst other things, require all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The requirement to report those income tax effects in earnings was applied to settlements occurring on or after January 1, 2017 and the impact of applying that guidance reduced reporting income tax expense by $1,048,000 for the year of 2017. ASU2016-09 also allows an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares than it could previously for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The Company will continue to estimate the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjust the estimate when it is no longer probable that the employee will fulfill the service condition, as was previously required. ASU2016-09 also requires that all incometax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments be reported as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Previously, income tax benefits at settlement of an award were reported as a reduction to operating cash flows and an increase to financing cash flows to the extent that those benefits exceeded the income tax benefits reported in earnings during the award’s vesting period. United elected to apply that change in cash flow classification on a retrospective basis, which resulted in a $4,008,000 and $1,023,000 increase to net cash from operating activities and a corresponding decrease to net cash from financing activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year of 2016 and 2015, respectively. The recognition of excess tax benefits and deficiencies in the income statement was adopted prospectively.2022. The adoption of ASU2016-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
market developments.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The amendments require an entity to recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The new revenue recognition standard sets forth a five-step principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. For United, revenue is comprised of net interest income and noninterest income. As the standard does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, net interest income and gains and losses from securities are not impacted by the standard. Based on a review and evaluation of a number of revenue contracts, United’s management determined that ASU2014-09 impacts certain recurring revenue streams related to noninterest income such as fees from trust and brokerage services. However, based on an
assessment of these revenue streams under the standard, management concluded that ASU2014-09 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Cardinal Financial Corporation
Community Bankers Trust, merged with and into United Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United (the “Bank Merger”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 2, 2021. United Bank survived the Bank Merger and continues to exist as a Virginia banking corporation.
The acquisition of Community Bankers Trust enhanced United’s existing presence in the DC Metro MSA and took United into new markets including Baltimore, Annapolis, Lynchburg, Richmond, and the Northern Neck of Virginia. It also strategically connected our
In many cases, determining the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required United to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of those determinations related to the fair value of acquired loans. The fair value of the acquired loans was based on the present value of the expected cash flows. Periodic principal and interest cash flows were adjusted for expected losses and prepayments, then discounted to determine the present value and summed to arrive at the estimated fair value. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is
recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carry-over of Cardinal’s previously established allowance for loan losses.
The acquired loans were divided into loans with evidence of credit quality deterioration, which are accounted for under ASC topic310-30 (acquired impaired) and loans that do not meet this criteria, which are accounted for under ASC topic310-20 (acquired performing). Acquired impaired loans have experienced a deterioration of credit quality from origination to acquisition for which it is probable that United will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable, including both principal and interest. Subsequent decreases in the expected cash flows require United to evaluate the need for additions to the Company’s allowance for credit losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows generally result in the recognition of additional interest income over the then remaining lives of the loans.
In conjunction with the Cardinal merger, the acquired loan portfolio was accounted for at fair value as follows:
| ||||
| ||||
| ||||
| ||||

Included in the above table is information related to acquired impaired loans. Specifically, contractually required principal and interest, cash flows expected to be collected and estimated fair value of acquired impaired loans were $132,837,000, $108,275,000, and $86,696,000, respectively.
The consideration paid for Cardinal’s common equity and the preliminary amounts of acquired identifiable assets and liabilities assumed as of the Cardinal Acquisition Date were as follows:

The operating results of United for year of December 31, 2017 include operating results of acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the Cardinal Acquisition Date. The operations of United’s metropolitan Washington D.C. geographic area, which primarily includes the acquired operations of Cardinal, provided $252,293,000 in total revenues, which represents net interest income plus other income, and $101,505,000 in net income from the period from the Cardinal Acquisition Date to December 31, 2017. These amounts are included in United’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017. Cardinal’s results of operations prior to the Cardinal Acquisition Date are not included in United’s consolidated financial statements.
The following table presents certain unaudited pro forma information for the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, as if the Cardinal merger had occurred on January 1, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These results combine the historical results of Cardinal into United’s consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair valuation adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on the indicated date nor are they intended to represent or be indicative of future results of operations. In particular, no adjustments have been made to eliminate the amount of Cardinal’s provision for credit losses for 2017 and 2016 that may not have been necessary had the acquired loans been recorded at fair value as of the beginning of 2017 and 2016. Additionally, United expects to achieve operating cost savings and other business synergies as a result of the acquisition which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts.

Bank of Georgetown
After the close of business on June 3, 2016 (BOG Acquisition Date), United acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Bank of Georgetown, a privately held community bank headquartered in Washington, D.C. With this transaction, United continues to expand its existing footprint in the D.C. Metro Region. The results of operations of Bank of Georgetown are included in the consolidated results of operations from the BOG Acquisition Date.
At consummation, Bank of Georgetown had assets of $1,278,837,000, loans of $999,773,000, and deposits of $971,369,000. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the BOG Acquisition Date.
The aggregate purchase price was $264,505,000, including common stock valued at $253,799,000, stock options assumed valued at $10,696,000, and cash paid for fractional shares of $10,000. The number of shares issued in the transaction was 6,527,746, which were valued based on the closing market price of $38.88 for United’s common shares on June 3, 2016. The purchase price has been allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets resulting in additions to goodwill and core deposit intangibles of $152,845,000 and $9,058,000, respectively. The core deposit intangibles are being amortized over ten years.
Because the consideration paid was greater than the net fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities, the Company recorded goodwill as part of the acquisition. None of the goodwill from the Bank of Georgetown acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. United used an independent third party to help determine the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired from the Bank of Georgetown.Community Bankers Trust. As a result of the merger, United recorded fair value discounts of $43,072,000$7,744,000 on the loans and leases acquired, $230,000 on land acquired, $50,000 on OREO properties acquired and $1,550,000$415,000 on leasehold improvements, respectively,a trust preferred issuance, and premiums of $6,766,000 on investment securities acquired, $492,000 on buildings acquired, $2,741,000 on interest-bearing deposits, acquired of $316,000 and a premium$457,000 on long-term FHLB advances, respectively. United also recorded an allowance for credit losses, including a reserve for unfunded commitments, of $2,659,000.$25,920,000 on the loans and commitments acquired split between $12,788,000 for purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans which is part of the acquisition date fair value, $12,288,000 for

Also, acquired portfolio loans and leases were evaluated upon acquisition and classified as either PCD, which indicates that the loan has experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination, or

primarily of pooled trust preferred collateralized debt obligations (Trup Cdos), single issue trust preferred securities and agency commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities. The Trup Cdos and the single issue trust preferred securities relate mainly to securities of financial institutions. The agency commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, relate tostate and political subdivision securities, agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and residential properties and provide a guaranty of full and timely payments of principal and interest by the issuing agency. other corporate securities.
Agency mortgage-backed2022.
United’s agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio relates to securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. The total amortized cost of available for sale agency mortgage-backed securities was $1,278,964,000 at December 31, 2017. Of the $1,278,964,000 amount, $457,107,000 was related to agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and $821,857,000 was related to agency residential mortgage-backed securities. Each of the agency mortgage-backed securities provides a guarantee of full and timely payments of principal and interest by the issuing agency. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the agency mortgage-backed securities were other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2017.
Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities
United’snon-agency residential mortgage-backed securities portfolio relates to securities of various private label issuers. The total amortized cost of available for salenon-agency residential mortgage-backed securities was $4,969,000 at December 31, 2017. Of the $4,969,000 amount, $546,000 was rated above investment grade and $4,423,000 was rated below investment grade. Approximately 17% of the portfolio includes collateral that was originated during the year of 2005 or before. The remaining 83% includes collateral that was originated in the years of 2006 and 2007. The entire portfolio of thenon-agency residential mortgage-backed securities are either the senior or super-senior tranches of their respective structure. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of thenon-agency mortgage-backed securities were other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2017.
Single issue trust preferred securities
The majority of United’s single issue trust preferred portfolio consists of obligations from large cap banks (i.e. banks with market capitalization in excess of $10 billion). Management reviews each issuer’s current and projected earnings trends, asset quality, capitalization levels, and other key factors. Upon completing the review for the fourth quarter of 2017, it was determined that none of the single issue trust preferred securities were other-than-temporarily impaired. All single issue trust preferred securities are currently receiving interest payments. The amortized cost of available for sale single issue trust preferred securities as of December 31, 2017 consisted of $7,707,000 in investment grade bonds and $5,710,000 in unrated bonds. The investment grade bonds were rated either Baa3 orBBB-. All of the unrated bonds were in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer as of December 31, 2017.
Trust preferred collateralized debt obligations (Trup Cdos)
In order to determine how and when the Company recognizes OTTI, the Company first assesses its intentions regarding any sale of securities as well as the likelihood that it would be required to sell prior to recovery of the amortized cost. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has determined that it does not intend to sell any pooled trust preferred security and that it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such securities before recovery of their amortized cost.
To determine a net realizable value and assess whether other-than-temporary impairment existed, management performed detailed cash flow analysis to determine whether, in management’s judgment, it was more likely that United would not recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The Company discounts the security-specific cash flow projection at the security-specific interest rate and compares the present value to the amortized cost. Management’s cash flow analysis was performed for each security and considered the current deferrals and defaults within the underlying collateral, the likelihood that current deferrals would cure or ultimately default, potential future deferrals and defaults, potential prepayments, cash reserves, excess interest spread, credit analysis of the underlying collateral and the priority of payments in the cash flow structure. The underlying collateral analysis for each issuer took into consideration multiple factors including capital adequacy, earnings trends and asset quality. After completing its analysis of estimated cash flows, management determined that none of the Trup Cdos experienced an adverse change in cash flows during the fourth quarter of 2017, as the expected discounted cash flows from these particular securities were greater than or equal to the discounted cash flows originally expected at purchase or from the previous date of other-than-temporary impairment (cash flows are discounted at the contractual coupon rate for purposes of assessing OTTI).
There was no credit-related other-than-temporary impairment recognized in earnings during 2017 and 2016 related to these securities. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the balance of noncredit-related other-than-temporary impairment recognized on United’s Trup Cdo portfolio was $20,770,000 and $25,952,000, respectively.
The amortized cost of available for sale Trup Cdos in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer as of December 31, 2017 consisted of $3,065,000 in investment grade bonds and $29,693,000 in below investment grade bonds.

While a difference remains between the fair value and amortized cost, the Company believes the remaining unrealized losses are related to the illiquid market for Trup Cdos rather than an adverse change in expected cash flows. The expected future cash flow substantiates the return of the remaining amortized cost of the security. The Company believes the following evidence supports the position that the remaining unrealized loss is related to the illiquid market for Trup Cdos:
The market for new issuance of Trup Cdos was robust from 2000 to 2007 with an estimated $60 billion in new issuance. The new market issuances came to an abrupt halt in 2007.
The secondary market for Trup Cdos ultimately became illiquid and although the market has improved, trading activity remains limited on these securities. In making this determination, the Company holds discussions with institutional traders to identify trends in the number and type of transactions related to the Trup Cdos.
The presence of a below-investment grade rating severely limits the pool of available buyers and contributes to the illiquidity of the market.
Trup Cdos have a more complex structure than most debt instruments, making projections of tranche returns difficult fornon-specialists in the product. Deferral features available to the underlying issuers within each pool are unique to these securities. Additionally, it can be difficult for market participants to predict whether deferrals will ultimately cure or ultimately default. Due to the lack of transparency, market participants will require a higher risk premium, thus resulting in higher required discount rates.
The variability of cash flows at the time the securities were originated was expected to be very limited. Due to the financial crisis, Trup Cdos have experienced more substantive variability of cash flows compared to expectations, resulting in a higher risk premium when evaluating discount rates.
The limited, yet relevant, observable inputs indicate that market yield requirements for Trup Cdos, on a credit-adjusted basis, remained very high relative to discount rates at purchase and compared to other similarly rated debt securities.
Overall, the Company believes the lack of new issuances, illiquid secondary market, limited pool of buyers, below investment grade ratings, and complex structures are the key drivers of the remaining unrealized losses in the Company’s Trup Cdos and the robust expected cash flow analysis substantiates the return of the remaining amortized cost under ASC topic 320.
Management also considered the ratings of the Company’s bonds in its portfolio and the extent of downgrades in United’s impairment analysis. However, management considered it imperative to independently perform its own credit analysis based on cash flows as described. The ratings of the investment grade Trup Cdos in the table above range from a low of AA to a high of Aaa. The below investment grade Trup Cdos range from a low of C to a high of Ba2.
On the Trup Cdos that have not been deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the collateralization ratios range from a low of 106.0% to a high of 461.3%, with a median of 283.6%, and a weighted average of 301.6%. The collateralization ratio is defined as the current performing collateral in a security, divided by the current balance of the specific tranche the Company owns, plus any debt which is senior or pari passu with the Company’s security’s priority level. Performing collateral excludes the balance of any issuer that has either defaulted or has deferred its interest payment. It is not uncommon for the collateralization of a security that is not other-than-temporarily impaired to be less than 100% due to the excess spread built into the securitization structure.
Except for the debt securities that have already been deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, management does not believe any other individual security with an unrealized loss as of December 31, 2017 is other-than-temporarily impaired. For these securities, United believes the decline in value resulted from changes in market interest rates, credit spreads and liquidity, not a change in the expected contractual cash flows. Based on a review of each of the securities in the investment portfolio, management concluded that it expected to recover the amortized cost basis of the investment in such securities.
Equity securities
The cost of United’s equity securities was $9,712,000 at December 31, 2017. For equity securities, management has evaluated the near-term prospects of the investment in relation to the severity and duration of any impairment and based on that evaluation, management determined that no equity securities were other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2017.
Other investment securities (cost method)
During the fourth quarter of 2017, United also evaluated all of its cost method investments to determine if certain events or changes in circumstances during the quarter had a significant adverse effect on the fair value of any of its cost method securities. United determined that there were no events or changes in circumstances during the fourth quarter of 2017 which would have an adverse effect on the fair value of any of its cost method securities. Therefore, no impairment was recorded.
Below is a progression of the credit losses on securities which United has recorded other-than-temporary charges. These charges were recorded through earnings and other comprehensive income.

Loans deemedbalance sheet date. Such allowance is based on the credit losses expected to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, while recoveries of previouslycharged-off amounts are credited to the allowance for loan losses. For commercial loans, when a loan or a portion of a loan is identified to contain a loss, acharge-off recommendation is directed to management tocharge-off all or a portion of that loan. Generally, any unsecured commercial loan more than six months delinquent in payment of interest must becharged-off in full. If secured, thecharge-off is generally made to reduce the loan balance to a level equal to the liquidation value of the collateral when payment of principal and interest is six months delinquent. Any commercial loan, secured or unsecured, on which a principal or interest payment has not been made within 90 days, is reviewed monthly for appropriate action.
For consumer loans,closed-end retail loans that are past due 120 cumulative days delinquent from the contractual due date andopen-end loans 180 cumulative days delinquent from the contractual due date arecharged-off. Any consumer loan on which a principal or interest payment has not been made within 90 days is reviewed monthly for appropriate action. For aone-to-four familyopen-end orclosed-end residential real estate loan, home equity loan, orhigh-loan-to-value loan that has reached 180 or more days past due, management evaluates the collateral position andcharges-off any amount that exceeds the value of the collateral. On retail credits for which the borrower is in bankruptcy, all amounts deemed unrecoverable are charged off within 60 days of the receipt of the notification. On retail credits effected by fraud, a loan ischarged-off within 90 days of the discovery of the fraud. In the event of the borrower’s death and if repayment within the required timeframe is uncertain, the loan is generallycharged-off as soon as the amount of the loss is determined.
For loans acquired through the completion of a transfer, including loans acquired in a business combination, that have evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it is probable, at acquisition, that United will be unable to collect all contractually required payment receivable are initially recorded at fair value (as determined by the
present value of expected future cash flows) with no valuation allowance. The difference between the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition and the investment in the loan, or the “accretable yield,” is recognized as interest income on a level-yield methodarise over the life of the loan. Contractually required payments for interest and principalasset (contractual term). Assets are charged off when United determines that exceed the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition,such financial assets are deemed uncollectible or the “nonaccretable difference,”based on regulatory requirements, whichever is earlier. Charge-offs are not recognized as a yield adjustment or as a loss accrual or a valuation allowance. Increases in expected cash flows subsequentdeduction from the allowance for credit losses. Expected recoveries of amounts previously
A progressioncollectability of the accrued interest receivables on these deferring loans and leases. As a result of this assessment, United did not record an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables not expected to be collected as of December 31, 2022 as compared to an allowance for credit losses of $8,000 as of December 31, 2021. For all classes of loans and leases receivable, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due, unless the loan losses,is well secured and in the process of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual loans and leases, generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal.

Derivative instruments designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to changes inflow hedges. As of December 31, 2022, the fair valuemaximum length of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivative instruments designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types oftime over which forecasted transactions are consideredhedged is eight years.
Forhedges cleared through the LCH include $500,000,000 for asset derivatives as of December 31, 2022. Balances related to LCH are presented as a fair value hedge,single unit of account with the fair value of the designated cash flow interest rate swap is recognized onasset being reduced by variation margin posted by (with) the balance sheet as either a freestanding asset or liability with a corresponding adjustment to the hedged financial instrument. Subsequent adjustments due to changesapplicable counterparty and reported in the following table on a net basis. The related fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a fair value hedge are offset in current period earnings. For a cash flow hedge, the fair value of the interest rate swap is recognized on the balance sheet as either a freestanding asset or liability with a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity, net of tax. Subsequent adjustments due to changes in the fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge are offset to other comprehensive income, net of tax. The portion of a hedge that is ineffective is recognized immediately in earnings.
At inception of a hedge relationship, United formally documents the hedged item, the particular risk management objective, the nature of the risk being hedged, the derivative being used, how effectiveness of the hedge will be assessed and how the ineffectiveness of the hedge will be measured. United also assesses hedge effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing basis using regression analysis. Hedge ineffectiveness is measured by using the change in fair value method. The change in fair value method compares the change in the fair value of the hedging derivative to the change in the fair value of the hedged exposure, attributable to changes in the benchmark rate. The portion of a hedge that is ineffective is recognized immediately in earnings.
United through George Mason enters into interest rate lock commitments to finance residential mortgage loans with its customers. These commitments, which contain fixed expiration dates, offer the borrower an interest rate guarantee provided the loan meets underwriting guidelines and closes within the timeframe established by United. Interest rate risk arises on these commitments and subsequently closed loans if interest rates change between the time of the interest rate lock and the delivery of the loan to the investor. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage loans held for sale is managed using corresponding forward mortgage loan sales contracts. United is a party to these forward mortgage loan sales
contracts to sell loans servicing released and short sales of mortgage-backed securities. When the interest rate is locked with the borrower, the rate lock commitment, forward sale agreement, and mortgage-backed security position are undesignated derivatives and marked to fair value through earnings. The fair value of the rate lock derivative includes the servicing premium and the interest spread for the difference between retail and wholesale mortgage rates. Income from mortgage banking activities includes the gain recognized for the period presented and associated elements of fair value.
United sells mortgage loans on either a best efforts or mandatory delivery basis. For loans sold on a mandatory deliverynet basis United enters into forward mortgage-backed securities (the “residual hedge”) to mitigate the effect of interest rate risk. Both the rate lock commitment under mandatory delivery and the residual hedge are recorded at fair value through earnings and are not designated as accounting hedges. At the closing of the loan, the loan commitment derivative expires and United records a loan held for sale at fair value and continues to mark these assets to market under the election of fair value option. United closes out of the trading mortgage-backed securities assigned within the residual hedge and replaces the securities with a forward sales contract once a price has been accepted by an investor and recorded at fair value. For those loans selected to be sold under best efforts delivery, at the closing of the loan, the rate lock commitment derivative expires and the Company records a loan held for sale at fair value under the election of fair value option and continues to be obligated under the same forward loan sales contract entered into at inception of the rate lock commitment.
The derivative portfolio also includes derivative financial instruments not included in hedge relationships. These derivatives consist of interest rate swaps used for interest rate management purposes and derivatives executed with commercial banking customers to facilitate their interest rate management strategies. For derivatives that are not designated in a hedge relationship, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings in the same period as the change in fair value. Gains and losses on other derivative financial instruments are included in noninterest income and noninterest expense, respectively.

The minimum
assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Using a market approach valuation methodology, third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that considersbased on observable market data (Level 2)inputs, which include benchmark yields, reported trades, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, and “To Be Announced” prices (“Level 2”). Management internally reviews the fair values provided by third party vendors on a monthly basis. Management’s review consists of comparing fair values assignedManagement also performs a quarterly price testing analysis at the individual security level which compares the pricing provided by the third party vendors to trades and offerings observed by management. The review requires some degreean independent pricing source’s valuation of judgment as to the number or percentage of securities to review on the part of management which could fluctuate based on results of past reviews and in comparison to current expectations. Exceptionssame securities. Variances that are deemed to be material are reviewed by management. Additionally, to further assess the reliability of the information received from third party vendors, management obtains documentation from third party vendors related to the sources, methodologies, and inputs utilized in valuing securities classified as Level 2. Management analyzes this information to ensure the underlying assumptions appear reasonable. Management also obtains an independent service auditor’s report from third party vendors to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate controls are in place over the valuation process. Upon completing its review of the pricing from third party vendors at December 31, 2017,2022, management determined that the prices provided by its third party pricing sourcesources were reasonable and in line with management’s expectations for the market values of these securities. Therefore, prices obtained from third party vendors that did not reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales were not adjusted materially by management at December 31, 2017.2022. Management utilizes a number of factors to determine if a market is inactive, all of which may require a significant level of judgment. Factors that management considers include: a significant widening of theconsiders its valuation ofdoes not have any Trup Cdos The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic assumes that fair values of financial assets are determined in an orderly transaction and not a forced liquidation or distressed sale at the measurement date. Based on financial market conditions, United feels that the fair values obtained from its third party vendor reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales for these Trup Cdos due to decreased volume and trading activity. Additionally, management held discussions with institutional traders to identify trends in the number and type of transactions related to the Trup Cdos sector. Based upon management’s review of the market conditions for Trup Cdos, it was determined that an income approach valuation technique (present value technique) that maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs is more representative of fair value than the valuation technique used by United’s third party vendor. The present value technique discounts expected future cash flows of a security to arrive at a present value. Management considers the following items when calculating the appropriate discount rate: the implied rate of return when the market was last active, changes in the implied rate of return as markets moved from very active to inactive, recent changes in credit ratings, and recent activity showing that the market has built in increased liquidity and credit premiums. Management’s internal credit review of each security was also factored in to determine the appropriate discount rate. The credit review considered each security’s collateral, subordination, excess spread, priority of claims, principal and interest. Discount margins used in the valuation at December 31, 2017 ranged from LIBOR plus 2.25% to LIBOR plus 5.75%. Management completed a sensitivity analysis on the fair value of its Trup Cdos. Given a comprehensive 200 basis point increase in the discount rates, the total fair value of these securities would decline by approximately 18%, or $6,177.
party vendors are typically not adjusted by management. Management internally reviews the derivative values provided by third party vendors on a quarterly basis. All derivative values are tested for reasonableness by management utilizing a net present value calculation.

United entered into an employment contract with Richard M. Adams, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective February 28, 2011. The original term of Mr. Adams’ employment contract was for three years, with the provision that the contract could be extended annually for one (1) year to maintain a rolling three (3) year contract.
At the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) meeting of the Company on February 26, 2018, the Committee approved the extension of the employment contract with Mr. Adams for an additional year until March 31, 2021.
The Committee also approved amendments to the United Bankshares, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreements (“SERPs”) with Richard M. Adams, Jr., James J. Consagra, Jr., Mark Tatterson and Craige Smith at its meeting on February 26, 2018 to revise the vesting and non-competition provisions in the SERPs as follows:
The SERP benefit will be deemed to be 100% vested and the executive will not be subject to the one- year non-compete restrictions under the SERP following a change of control in the event of (i) an involuntary termination other than for “Cause,” or (ii) any resignation (whether voluntary, with or without Good Reason, upon retirement, etc.).
Even if no change of control occurs, the SERP benefit will be deemed to be 100% vested and the executive will not be subject to the one- year non-compete restrictions under the SERP in the event of (i) a voluntary resignation at any time for “Good Reason” or (ii) an involuntary termination of the executive other than for “Cause.”
The applicable SERP benefit will be deemed to be 100% vested executive if the executive becomes Disabled.
If no change of control has occurred, an executive who resigns without “Good Reason” will remain subject to the applicable vesting schedule and the one year non-compete provisions in the SERP.
In all cases, whether or not a change of control has occurred, a termination for “Cause” will result in a forfeiture of the SERP benefit.
Provisions in the SERPs which provide for forfeiture due to suicide or misstatement were deleted.
At its meeting on November 10, 2017, the Committee approved amendments to the SERPs with Richard M. Adams, Jr., James J. Consagra, Jr., Mark Tatterson and Craige Smith and the Amended and Restated Change of Control Agreements with Richard M. Adams, Jr. and James C. Consagra, Jr. to amend the definition of disability to comply with the final rules related to disability claims procedures recently issued by the U.S. Department of Labor.
The above amendments are set forth in the following documents, attached hereto as follows: (i) Form of 2017 Amendment to Amended and Restated Change of Control Agreement for Richard M. Adams, Jr. and James J. Consagra, Jr. attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6; (ii) Form of Second Amendment to 2008 Amended and Restated United Bankshares, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement for Richard M. Adams, Jr. and James J. Consagra, Jr. attached hereto as Exhibit 10.8; and (iii) Form of First Amendment to United Bankshares, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement for Craige Smith and Mark Tatterson attached hereto as Exhibit 10.12.
