NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of First Commonwealth Financial Corporation and ~~its~~ subsidiaries (“First Commonwealth” or the “Company”) conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual realized amounts could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of First Commonwealth’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity as of and for the periods presented. Certain information and Note disclosures normally included in Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-bearing bank deposits. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year of ~~2022.~~2023. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with First Commonwealth’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 2 Acquisition

On January 31, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Centric Financial Corporation (“Centric”) and its banking subsidiary, Centric Bank, for consideration of 9,688,478 shares of the Company's common stock. Through the acquisition, the Company obtained seven full-service banking offices and one loan production office in the Harrisburg, Philadelphia and Lancaster Metropolitan Service Areas ("MSAs").

The table below summarizes the preliminary net assets acquired (at fair value) and consideration transferred in connection with the Centric acquisition (dollars in thousands):

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

The Company determined that this acquisition constitutes a business combination and therefore was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, as of the date of the acquisition, the Company recorded the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration paid at fair value. The $57.1 million excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is not amortizable or deductible for tax purposes. The amount of goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company with Centric.

The fair value of the 9,688,478 common shares issued was determined based on the $14.59 closing market price of the Company's common shares on the acquisition date, January 31, 2023. While the valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities is substantially complete, fair value estimates are subject to adjustment during the provisional period, which may last up to twelve months subsequent to the acquisition date. During this period, the Company may obtain additional information to refine the valuations and adjust the recorded fair value, although such adjustments are not expected to be significant. Valuations subject to adjustments include, but are not limited to, the fair value of acquired loans, deposits, land and building, core deposit intangible and other assets and liabilities.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to estimate the fair values of major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company used an independent valuation specialist to assist with the determination of fair values for certain acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

Cash and due from banks - The estimated fair value was determined to approximate the carrying amount of these assets.

Investment securities - The estimated fair value of the investment portfolio was based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes, and pricing obtained from independent pricing services.

Loans - The estimated fair value of loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology applied on a pooled basis for non purchased credit-deteriorated ("non-PCD") loans and on an individual basis for purchased credit-deteriorated ("PCD") loans. The valuation considered underlying characteristics including loan type, term, rate, payment schedule and credit rating. Other factors included assumptions related to prepayments, probability of default and loss given default. The discount rates applied were based on a build-up approach considering the funding mix, servicing costs, liquidity premium and factors related to performance risk.

Premise and equipment - The estimated fair value of land and buildings were determined by independent market-based appraisals.

Core deposit intangible - The core deposit intangible was valued utilizing the cost savings method approach, which recognizes the cost savings represented by the expense of maintaining the core deposit base versus the cost of an alternative funding source. The valuation incorporates assumptions related to account retention, discount rates, deposit interest rates, deposit maintenance costs and alternative funding rates.

Time deposits - The estimated fair value of time deposits was determined using a discounted cash flow approach incorporating a discount rate equal to current market interest rates offered on time deposits with similar terms and maturities.

Borrowings - The estimated fair value of short-term borrowings was determined to approximate stated value. Subordinated debentures were valued using a discounted cash flow approach incorporating a discount rate that incorporated similar terms, maturity and credit rating.

Accounting for Acquired Loans

Acquired loans are classified into two categories PCD loans and non-PCD loans. PCD loans are defined as a loan or group of loans that have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Non-PCD loans will have an allowance established on acquisition date, which is recognized as an expense through provision for credit losses. For PCD loans, an allowance is recognized on day 1 by adding it to the fair value of the loan, which is the “Day 1 amortized cost”. There is no provision for credit loss expense recognized on PCD loans because the initial allowance is established by grossing-up the amortized cost of the PCD loan.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

A day 1 allowance for credit losses on non-PCD loans of $10.7 million was recorded through the provision for credit losses within the Consolidated Statements of Income. At the date of acquisition, of the $977.1 million of loans acquired from Centric, $302.4 million, or 30.9%, of Centric's loan portfolio, was accounted for as PCD loans.

Note 56 Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Commitments and Letters of Credit

Standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by First Commonwealth to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The contract or notional amount of these instruments reflects the maximum amount of future payments that First Commonwealth could be required to pay under the guarantees if there were a total default by the guaranteed parties, without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged. In addition, many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The following table identifies the notional amount of those instruments ~~at:~~at the date shown below:


		March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021			March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022

The notional amounts outstanding as of March 31, ~~2022~~2023 include amounts issued in ~~2022~~2023 of ~~$7.0~~$0.1 million in performance standby letters of credit. There were no financial standby letters of credit or commercial letters of credit issued in ~~2022, however there was a change in terms for one letter of credit which increased its commitment amount.~~2023. A liability of $0.1 million has been

~~ITEM 1.~~ ~~Financial Statements and Supplementary Data~~

~~FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

recorded as of both March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, which represents the estimated fair value of letters of credit issued. The fair value of letters of credit is estimated based on the unrecognized portion of fees received at the time the commitment was issued.

Unused commitments and letters of credit provide exposure to future credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower or guaranteed parties. Management’s evaluation of the credit risk related to these commitments resulted in the recording of a liability of ~~$8.6~~$8.2 million and ~~$6.4~~$10.0 million as of March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. This liability is reflected in "Other liabilities" in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The credit risk evaluation incorporates the expected loss percentage calculated for comparable loan categories as part of the allowance for credit losses for loans as well as estimated utilization for each loan category.

Legal Proceedings

First Commonwealth and its subsidiaries are subject in the normal course of business to various pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. As of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of litigation pending or threatened against First Commonwealth or its subsidiaries will be material to First Commonwealth’s consolidated financial position. On at least a quarterly basis, First Commonwealth assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with such legal proceedings. For those matters where it is probable that First Commonwealth will incur losses and the amounts of the losses can be reasonably estimated, First Commonwealth records an expense and corresponding liability in its consolidated financial statements. To the extent the pending or threatened litigation could result in exposure in excess of that liability, the amount of such excess is not currently estimable. Although not considered probable, the range of reasonably possible losses for such matters in the aggregate, beyond the existing recorded liability (if any), is between $0 and $1 million. Although First Commonwealth does not believe that the outcome of pending litigation will be material to First Commonwealth’s consolidated financial position, it cannot rule out the possibility that such outcomes will be material to the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for a particular reporting period in the future.

Mortgage-backed securities include mortgage-backed obligations of U.S. Government agencies and obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises. These obligations have contractual maturities ranging from less than one year to approximately 3040 years, with lower anticipated lives to maturity due to prepayments. All mortgage-backed securities contain a certain amount of risk related to the uncertainty of prepayments of the underlying mortgages. Interest rate changes have a direct impact upon prepayment speeds; therefore, First Commonwealth uses computer simulation models to test the average life and yield volatility of all mortgage-backed securities under various interest rate scenarios to monitor the potential impact on earnings and interest rate risk positions.

Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Other fixed income securities within the portfolio also contain prepayment risk.

Mortgage-Backed Securities include an amortized cost of ~~$88.6~~$76.0 million and a fair value of ~~$82.3~~$62.6 million for Obligations of U.S. Government agencies issued by Ginnie Mae and an amortized cost of ~~$373.0~~$325.4 million and a fair value of ~~$346.9~~$275.8 million for Obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Other Investments

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"), First Commonwealth is required to purchase and hold stock in the FHLB to satisfy membership and borrowing requirements. The level of stock required to be held is dependent on the amount of First Commonwealth's mortgage-related assets and outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. This stock is restricted in that it can

1418

ITEM 1. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

only be sold to the FHLB or to another member institution, and all sales of FHLB stock must be at par. As a result of these restrictions, FHLB stock is unlike other investment securities insofar as there is no trading market for FHLB stock and the transfer price is determined by FHLB membership rules and not by market participants. As of March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, our FHLB stock totaled ~~$12.0~~$30.0 million and ~~$11.7~~$25.2 million, respectively, and is included in “Other investments” on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

FHLB stock is held as a long-term investment and its value is determined based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. First Commonwealth evaluates impairment quarterly and has concluded that the par value of its investment in FHLB stock will be recovered. Accordingly, no impairment charge was recorded on these securities during the three months ended March 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

As of both March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, "Other investments" also includes $6.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in equity securities. These securities do not have a readily determinable fair value and are carried at cost. During the three-months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, there were no gains or losses recognized through earnings on equity securities. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates equity securities by reviewing the severity and duration of decline in estimated fair value, research reports, analysts’ recommendations, credit rating changes, news stories, annual reports, regulatory filings, impact of interest rate changes and other relevant information.

Impairment of Investment Securities

We review our investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for indications of impairment. For available for sale securities, the

review includes analyzing the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which

may influence the operations of the issuer and whether we are more likely than not to sell the security. We evaluate whether we

are more likely than not to sell debt securities based upon our investment strategy for the particular type of security and our cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy, tax position and interest rate risk position. Held-to-maturity securities are

evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis using historical probability of default and loss given default information specific

to the investment category. If this evaluation determines that credit losses exist an allowance for credit loss is recorded and

included in earnings as a component of credit loss expense.

First Commonwealth utilizes the specific identification method to determine the net gain or loss on debt securities and the average cost method to determine the net gain or loss on equity securities.

The following table presents the gross unrealized losses and estimated fair values at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 for both available for sale and held to maturity securities by investment category and time frame for which securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

In the table above, Commercial, financial, agricultural and other loans at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 includes $28.9 million and $71.3 million, respectively, in Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans for small businesses who meet the necessary eligibility requirements. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") and are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds are used for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance with the PPP requirements. Because PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, there is no allowance for credit losses recognized for these loans. Although the Company believes that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven by the SBA in accordance with the terms of the program, there could be risks and liability to the Company associated with participation in the program.

First Commonwealth’s loan portfolio includes five primary loan categories. When calculating the allowance for credit losses these categories are classified into fourteen portfolio segments. The composition of loans by portfolio segment includes:

Commercial, financial, agricultural and other

Time & Demand - Consists primarily of commercial and industrial loans. This category consists of loans that are typically cash flow dependent and therefore have different risk and loss characteristics than other commercial loans. Loans in this category include revolving and term structures with fixed and variable interest rates. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and economic conditions measured by GDP. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, this category includes $5.3 million and $4.3 million in Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans for small businesses. Because PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, there is no allowance for credit losses recognized for these loans.

Commercial Credit Cards - Consists of unsecured credit cards for commercial customers. These commercial credit cards have separate characteristics outside of normal commercial non-real estate loans, as they tend to have shorter overall duration. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and economic conditions measured by GDP.

~~FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

Equipment Finance - Consists of loans and leases to finance the purchase of equipment for commercial customers. The risk and loss characteristics are unique for this group due to the type of collateral. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and economic conditions measured by GDP. ~~There were no equipment finance loans or leases in the portfolio prior to the first quarter of 2022.~~

ITEM 1. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Time & Demand Other - Consists primarily of loans to state and political subdivisions and other commercial loans that have different characteristics than loans in the Time and Demand category. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of household debt to income and economic conditions measured by GDP. Prior to the first quarter of 2022, these loans were included in the Time and Demand category. The breakout into a separate category is the result of an annual review of the peer group loss history and loss drivers used in the Allowance for Credit Losses model.

Real estate construction

Construction Other - Consists of construction loans to commercial builders and developers and are secured by the properties under development.

Construction Residential - Consists of loans to finance the construction of residential properties during the construction period. Borrowers are typically individuals who will occupy the completed single family property.

The risk and loss characteristics of these two construction categories are different than other real estate secured categories due to the collateral being at various stages of completion. The nature of the project and type of borrower of the two construction categories provides for unique risk and loss characteristics for each category. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for construction loans include forecasts of national unemployment and measures of completed construction projects. Prior to the first quarter of 2022, all construction loans were included in one loan category. The breakout into separate construction categories is the result of an annual review of the peer group loss history and loss drivers used in the Allowance for Credit Losses model.

Residential real estate

Residential first lien - Consists of loans with collateral of 1-4 family residencies with a senior lien position. The risk and loss characteristics are unique for this group because the collateral for these loans are the borrower’s primary residence. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and residential property values.

Residential Junior Lien/Home Equity - Consists of loans with collateral of 1-4 family residencies with an open end line of credit or junior lien position. The junior lien position for the majority of these loans provides a higher risk of loss than other residential real estate loans. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and residential property values.

Commercial real estate

Multifamily - Consists of loans secured by commercial multifamily properties. Real estate related to rentals to consumers provide unique risk and loss characteristics. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of commercial real estate values and national unemployment. In the first quarter of 2022, as a result of an annual review of peer group loss history and loss drivers, national unemployment replaced rental vacancy as one of the primary macroeconomic drivers in this category.

Nonowner Occupied - Consists of loans secured by commercial real estate non-owner occupied and provides different loss characteristics than other real estate categories. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and economic conditions measured by GDP.

Owner Occupied - Consists of loans secured by commercial real estate owner occupied properties. The risk and loss characteristics of this category were considered different than other real estate categories because it is owner occupied and would impact the ability to conduct business. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of national unemployment and economic conditions measured by GDP.

Loans to individuals

Automobile and Recreational Vehicles - Consists of both direct and indirect loans with automobiles and recreational vehicles held as collateral. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of consumer sentiment and automobile retention value.

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

Consumer Credit Cards – Consists of unsecured consumer credit cards. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of consumer sentiment and economic conditions measured by GDP.

Other Consumer - Consists of lines of credit, student loans and other consumer loans, not secured by real estate or autos. The primary macroeconomic drivers for estimating credit losses for this category include forecasts of consumer sentiment and retail sales. In the first quarter of 2022, as a result of an annual review of peer group loss history and loss drivers, retail sales replaced household debt as one of the primary macroeconomic factors for this category.

The allowance for credit losses is calculated by pooling loans of similar credit risk characteristics and applying a discounted cash flow methodology after incorporating probability of default and loss given default estimates. Probability of default represents an estimate of the likelihood of default, and loss given default measures the expected loss upon default. Inputs impacting the expected losses include a forecast of macroeconomic factors, using a weighted forecast from a nationally

recognized firm. Our model incorporates a one-year forecast of macroeconomic factors, after which the factors revert back to the historical mean over a one-year period. The most significant macroeconomic factor used in estimating credit losses is the national unemployment rate. The forecasted value for national unemployment at the beginning of the forecast period was ~~3.87%~~3.47% and during the one-year forecast period it was projected to average ~~4.36%~~4.42%, with a peak of ~~4.58%~~4.84%. Current forecast assumptions consider the impact of rising interest rates, global oil prices and supply chain disruption, COVID-19, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the potential effects of these on the US economy.

Credit Quality Information

As part of the on-going monitoring of credit quality within the loan portfolio, the following credit worthiness categories are used in grading our loans:


Pass						Acceptable levels of risk exist in the relationship. Includes all loans not classified as OAEM, substandard or doubtful.

Other Assets Especially Mentioned (OAEM)						Potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. The potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects or weaken the Company’s credit position at some future date. The credit risk may be relatively minor, yet constitute an undesirable risk in light of the circumstances surrounding the specific credit. No loss of principal or interest is expected.

Substandard						Well-defined weakness or a weakness that jeopardizes the repayment of the debt. A loan may be classified as substandard as a result of deterioration of the borrower’s financial condition and repayment capacity. Loans for which repayment plans have not been met or collateral equity margins do not protect the Company may also be classified as substandard.

Doubtful						Loans with the characteristics of substandard loans with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of presently existing facts and conditions, is highly improbable.

The Company’s internal creditworthiness grading system provides a measurement of credit risk based primarily on an evaluation of the borrower’s cash flow and collateral. Category ratings are reviewed each quarter, at which time management analyzes the results, as well as other external statistics and factors related to loan performance.

Portfolio Risks

The credit quality of our loan portfolio can potentially represent significant risk to our earnings, capital and liquidity. First Commonwealth devotes substantial resources to managing this risk primarily through our credit administration department that develops and administers policies and procedures for underwriting, maintaining, monitoring and collecting loans. Credit administration is independent of lending departments and oversight is provided by the Credit Committee of the First Commonwealth Board of Directors.

Total net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were $1.2 million and ~~2021 were~~ $1.1 million, ~~and $3.3 million,~~ respectively.

Nonaccrual Loans

The previous tables summarize nonaccrual loans by loan segment. The Company generally places loans on nonaccrual status when the full and timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain, when part of the principal balance has been charged off and no restructuring has occurred, or the loans reach a certain number of days past due. Generally, loans 90 days or more past due are placed on nonaccrual status, except for consumer loans, which are placed on nonaccrual status at 150 days past due.

When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, the accrued unpaid interest receivable is reversed against interest income and all future payments received are applied as a reduction to the loan principal. Generally, the loan is returned to accrual status when (a) all delinquent interest and principal becomes current under the terms of the loan agreement or (b) the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection and collectability is no longer in doubt.

Nonperforming Loans

Management considers loans to be nonperforming when, based on current information and events, it is determined that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan contract, including scheduled interest payments. ~~Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans and all troubled debt restructured loans.~~ When management identifies a loan as nonperforming, the credit loss is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except when the sole source for repayment of the loan is the operation or liquidation of collateral. When the loan is collateral dependent, the appraised value less estimated cost to sell is utilized. If management determines that the value of the loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, a credit loss is recognized through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance for credit losses.

When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of a nonperforming loan is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal, under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of a

nonperforming loan is not in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, contractual interest is credited to interest income when received under the cash basis method.

At March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no nonperforming loans held for sale. During both the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, there were no gains recognized on the sale of nonperforming loans.

The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balance for nonperforming loans with the associated allowance amount, if applicable, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Also presented are the average recorded investment in nonperforming loans and the related amount of interest recognized while the loan was considered nonperforming. Average balances are calculated using month-end balances of the loans for the period reported and are included in the table below based on their period-end allowance position. The increase in nonperforming loans is primarily a result of $14.9 million in loans acquired from Centric, offset by the removal of $6.4 million in accruing troubled debt restructurings ("TDR's"). The TDR's were eliminated as a result of our adoption of ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02"). This standard was adopted on January 1, 2023 and eliminates the accounting guidance for TDR's while enhancing disclosure requirements for loan modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

Loan Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

~~Unfunded commitments related~~The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023 on a prospective basis. Disclosures for years prior to adoption continue to reflect TDR's as nonperforming loans ~~were $0.2 million at both~~and include TDR disclosures required under the previous guidance. Upon adoption of this guidance, the Company no longer establishes a specific reserve for modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Instead, these modifications are included in their respective loan segment and an allowance is determined by a loss given default and probability of default methodology.

Modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may include interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, other- than-insignificant payment delay, term extensions or any combination thereof.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loan modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty:

Troubled debt restructured loans are those loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as a result of the financial difficulties experienced by the borrower, who could not obtain comparable terms from alternative financing sources. Troubled debt restructured loans are considered to be nonperforming loans.

Note 89 Leases

First Commonwealth has elected to apply certain practical expedients provided under ASU 2016-02 "Leases" (Topic 842) including (i) to not apply the requirements in the new standard to short-term leases (ii) to not reassess the lease classification for

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

any expired or existing lease (iii) to account for lease and non-lease components separately (iv) to not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The impact of this standard primarily relates to operating leases of certain real estate properties, including certain branch and ATM locations and office space. First Commonwealth has no material leasing arrangements for which it is the lessor of property or equipment.

In the above table, the increase in the ROU asset and lease liability at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, is primarily a result of leases assumed as part of the Centric acquisition.

The ROU assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. First Commonwealth's lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the Company's discretion. If we consider the renewal option to be reasonably certain, we include the extended term in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability.

First Commonwealth uses incremental borrowing rates when calculating the lease liability because the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate used by First Commonwealth is an amortizing loan rate obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Pittsburgh. This rate is consistent with a collateralized borrowing rate and is available for terms similar to the lease payment schedules.

Future minimum payments for operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of March 31, ~~2022~~2023 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 1011 Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("Topic 820"), requires disclosures for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). All non-financial assets are included either as a separate line item on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition or in the “Other assets” category of the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Currently, First Commonwealth does not have any non-financial liabilities to disclose.

FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” ~~(Topic~~("Topic 825"), permits entities to irrevocably elect to measure select financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The unrealized gains and losses are required to be included in earnings each reporting period for the items that fair value measurement is elected. First Commonwealth has elected not to measure any existing financial instruments at fair value under Topic 825; however, in the future we may elect to adopt this guidance for select financial instruments.

In accordance with Topic 820, First Commonwealth groups financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels based on the principal markets in which the assets and liabilities are transacted and the observability of the data points used to determine fair value. These levels are:

•Level 1 – Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 – Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained for observable inputs for identical or comparable assets or liabilities from alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Level 2 includes Obligations of U.S. Government securities issued by Agencies and Sponsored Enterprises, Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions, corporate securities, FHLB stock, loans held for sale, premise held for sale, interest rate derivatives (including interest rate caps, interest rate collars, interest rate swaps and risk participation agreements), certain other real estate owned and certain nonperforming loans.

Level 2 investment securities are valued by a recognized third party pricing service using observable inputs. The model used by the pricing service varies by asset class and incorporates available market, trade and bid information as well as cash flow information when applicable. Because many fixed-income investment securities do not trade on a daily basis, the model uses available information such as benchmark yield curves, benchmarking of like investment securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. The model will also use processes such as an ~~option adjusted~~option-adjusted spread to assess the impact of interest rates and to develop prepayment estimates. Market inputs normally used in the pricing model include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications.

Management validates the market values provided by the third party service by having another source price 100% of the securities on a monthly basis, monthly monitoring of variances from prior period pricing and, on a monthly basis, evaluating pricing changes compared to expectations based on changes in the financial markets.

Other investments recorded in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition are primarily comprised of FHLB stock whose estimated fair value is based on its par value. Additional information on FHLB stock is provided in Note 6,7, “Investment Securities.”

Loans held for sale include residential mortgage loans originated for sale in the secondary mortgage market. The estimated fair value for these loans was determined on the basis of rates obtained in the respective secondary market. Loans held for sale could also include the Small Business Administration guaranteed portion of small business loans. The estimated fair value of these loans is based on the contract with the third party investor. ~~Also included in~~When loans held for sale ~~are~~include other commercial loans, ~~for which~~ fair value is determined using an executed trade or market bid obtained from potential buyers.

Interest rate derivatives are reported at an estimated fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs and are included in other assets and other liabilities, and consist of interest rate swaps where there is no significant deterioration in the counterparties' and/or loan customers' credit risk since origination of the interest rate swap as well as interest rate caps, interest rate collars and risk

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

participation agreements. First Commonwealth values its interest rate swap and cap positions using a yield curve by taking market prices/rates for an appropriate set of instruments. The set of instruments currently used to determine the U.S. Dollar yield curve includes cash LIBOR rates from overnight to one year, Eurodollar futures contracts and swap rates from one year to

ITEM 1. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

thirty years. These yield curves determine the valuations of interest rate swaps. Interest rate derivatives are further described in Note ~~11,~~12, “Derivatives.”

For purposes of potential valuation adjustments to our derivative positions, First Commonwealth evaluates the credit risk of its counterparties as well as our own credit risk. Accordingly, we have considered factors such as the likelihood of default, expected loss given default, net exposures and remaining contractual life, among other things, in determining if any estimated fair value adjustments related to credit risk are required. We review our counterparty exposure quarterly, and when necessary, appropriate adjustments are made to reflect the exposure.

Interest rate derivatives also include interest rate forwards entered into to hedge residential mortgage loans held for sale and the related interest-rate lock commitments. This includes forward commitments to sell mortgage loans. The fair value of these derivative financial instruments are based on derivative market data inputs as of the valuation date and the underlying value of mortgage loans for rate lock commitments.

In addition, the Company hedges foreign currency risk through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. The fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts is based on the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate.

The estimated fair value for other real estate owned included in Level 2 is determined by either an independent market-based appraisal less estimated costs to sell or an executed sales agreement.

•Level 3 – Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer or broker traded transactions. If the inputs used to provide the valuation are unobservable and/or there is very little, if any, market activity for the security or similar securities, the securities would be considered Level 3 securities. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities. The assets included in Level 3 are non-marketable equity investments, certain interest rate derivatives ~~certain other real estate owned~~ and certain nonperforming loans.

The estimated fair value of other investments included in Level 3 is based on carrying value as these securities do not have a readily determinable fair value.

The estimated fair value of limited partnership investments included in Level 3 is based on par value.

For interest rate derivatives included in Level 3, the fair value incorporates credit risk by considering such factors as likelihood of default and expected loss given default based on the credit quality of the underlying counterparties (loan customers).

(b)Unobservable inputs are defined as follows: MMBTU - one million British thermal units; BBL/d - barrels per day.

The discount rate is the significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of nonperforming loans. Significant increases in this rate would result in a decrease in the estimated fair value of the loans, while a decrease in this rate would result in a higher fair value measurement. Other unobservable inputs in the fair value measurement of nonperforming loans relate to gas, oil and natural gas prices. Increases in these prices would result in an increase in the estimated fair value of the loans, while a decrease in these prices would result in a lower fair value measurement.

Nonperforming loans over $250 thousand are individually reviewed to determine the amount of each loan considered to be at risk of non-collection. The fair value for nonperforming loans that are collateral-based is determined by reviewing real property

appraisals, equipment valuations, accounts receivable listings and other financial information. A discounted cash flow analysis is performed to determine fair value for nonperforming loans when an observable market price or a current appraisal is not available. For real estate secured loans, First Commonwealth’s loan policy requires updated appraisals be obtained at least every twelve months on all nonperforming loans with balances of $250 thousand and over. For real estate secured loans with balances under $250 thousand, we rely on broker price opinions. For non-real estate secured assets, the Company normally relies on third party valuations specific to the collateral type.

The fair value for other real estate owned, determined by either an independent market-based appraisal less estimated costs to sell or an executed sales agreement, is classified as Level 2. The fair value for other real estate owned, determined using an internal valuation, is classified as Level 3. Other real estate owned has a current carrying value of ~~$0.7~~$0.4 million as of March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and consists ~~primarily~~ of five residential ~~and commercial~~ real estate properties in ~~Pennsylvania and Ohio.~~Pennsylvania. We review whether events and circumstances subsequent to a transfer to other real estate owned have occurred that indicate the balance of those assets may not be recoverable. If events and circumstances indicate further impairment we will record a charge to the extent that the carrying value of the assets exceed their fair values, less estimated cost to sell, as determined by valuation techniques appropriate in the circumstances.

Certain other assets and liabilities, including goodwill, core deposit intangibles and customer list intangibles are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. Additional information related to goodwill is provided in Note ~~12,~~13, “Goodwill.” There were no other assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the three months ended March 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

FASB ASC Topic 825-10, “Transition Related to FSP FAS 107-1” and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are as discussed above. The methodologies for other financial assets and financial liabilities are discussed below.

Cash and due from banks and interest-bearing bank deposits: The carrying amounts for cash and due from banks and interest-bearing bank deposits approximate the estimated fair values of such assets.

Securities: Fair values for securities available for sale and held to maturity are based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. The carrying value of other investments, which includes FHLB stock and other equity investments, is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Loans: The fair values of all loans are estimated by discounting the estimated future cash flows using interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality adjusted for past due and nonperforming loans.

Loans held for sale: The estimated fair value of loans held for sale is based on market bids obtained from potential buyers.

Off-balance sheet instruments: Many of First Commonwealth’s off-balance sheet instruments, primarily loan commitments and standby letters of credit, are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. FASB ASC Topic 460, “Guarantees” clarified that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The carrying amount and estimated fair value for standby letters of credit was $0.1 million at both March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. See Note 5,6, “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities,” for additional information.

Deposit liabilities: The estimated fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date because of the customers’ ability to withdraw funds immediately. The carrying value of variable rate time deposit accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the report date. Also, fair values of fixed rate time deposits for both periods are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using interest rates currently being offered and a schedule of aggregated expected maturities.

Short-term borrowings: The fair values of borrowings from the FHLB were estimated based on the estimated incremental borrowing rate for similar type borrowings. The carrying amounts of other short-term borrowings, such as federal funds

purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase, were used to approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the borrowings.

Subordinated debt and long-term ~~debt:~~debt: The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using First Commonwealth’s estimate of the current market rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Note 1112 Derivatives

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

First Commonwealth is a party to interest rate derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivatives relate to interest rate swaps that First Commonwealth enters into with customers to allow customers to convert variable rate loans to a fixed rate. First Commonwealth pays interest to the customer at a floating rate on the notional amount and receives interest from the customer at a fixed rate for the same notional amount. At the same time the interest rate swap is entered into with the customer, an offsetting interest rate swap is entered into with another financial institution. First Commonwealth pays the other financial institution interest at the same fixed rate on the same notional amount as the swap entered into with the customer, and receives interest from the financial institution for the same floating rate on the same notional amount.

The changes in the fair value of the swaps offset each other, except for the credit risk of the counterparties, which is determined by taking into consideration the risk rating, probability of default and loss given default for all counterparties.

We have 3931 risk participation agreements with financial institution counterparties for interest rate swaps related to loans in which we are a participant. The risk participation agreements provide credit protection to the financial institution should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with the financial institution. We have 1715 risk participation agreements with financial institution counterparties for interest rate swaps related to loans in which we are the lead bank. The risk participation agreement provides credit protection to us should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with us.

First Commonwealth is also party to interest rate caps and collars that are not designated as hedging instruments. The interest rate caps relate to contracts that First Commonwealth enters into with loan customers that provide a maximum interest rate on their variable rate loan. At the same time the interest rate cap is entered into with the customer, First Commonwealth enters into an offsetting interest rate cap with another financial institution. The notional amount and maximum interest rate on both interest cap contracts are identical. The interest rate collars relate to contracts that First Commonwealth enters into with loan customers that provides both a maximum and minimum interest rate on their variable rate loan. At the same time the interest rate collar is entered into with the customer, First Commonwealth enters into an offsetting interest rate collar with another financial institution. The notional amount and the maximum and minimum interest rates on both interest collar contracts are identical.

The fee received, less the estimate of the loss for the credit exposure, was recognized in earnings at the time of the transaction.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

In August 2019, the Company entered into two interest rate swap contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. These contracts mature on August 15, 2024 and August 15, 2026 and have notional amounts of $30.0 million and $40.0 million, respectively. The Company's risk management objective for these hedges is to reduce its exposure to variability in expected future cash flows related to interest payments made on subordinated debentures benchmarked to the 3-month LIBOR rate. Therefore, the interest rate swaps convert the interest rate benchmark on the first $70.0 million of 3-month LIBOR based subordinated debentures to a fixed rate.

During 2021, the Company entered into eight interest rate swap contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swaps have a total notional amount of $500.0 million: $75.0 million with an original maturity of three years, $250.0 million with an original maturity of four years and $175.0 million with an original maturity of five years. The Company's risk management objective for these hedges is to reduce its exposure to variability in expected future cash flows related to interest payments on commercial loans benchmarked to the 1-month LIBOR rate. Therefore, the interest rate swaps convert the interest payments on the first $500.0 million of 1-month LIBOR based commercial loans into fixed rate payments.

The periodic net settlement of these interest rate swaps are recorded as an adjustment to "Interest on subordinated debentures" or "Interest and fees on loans" in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. For the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, there was a ~~positive~~negative impact of ~~$0.5~~$4.2 million on net interest income as a result of these interest rate swaps. Changes in the fair value of the cash flow hedges are reported on the balance sheet and in OCI. When the cash flows associated with the hedged item are realized, the gain or loss included in OCI is recognized in "Interest on subordinated debentures," or "Interest and fees on loans", the same line items in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income as the income on the hedged items. The cash flow hedges were highly effective at March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, and changes in the fair value attributed to hedge ineffectiveness were not material.

The Company also enters into interest rate lock commitments in conjunction with its mortgage origination business. These are commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. The Company locks the rate in with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs (“best efforts”) or commits to deliver the locked loan in a binding (“mandatory”) delivery program with an investor. Loans under mandatory rate lock commitments are covered under forward sales contracts of mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). Forward sales contracts of MBS are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in "Noninterest income" in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. The impact to noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 was ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$1.2~~$0.3 million.

Interest rate lock commitments and commitments to deliver loans to investors are considered derivatives. The market value of interest rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because they are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. We determine the fair value of rate lock commitments and delivery contracts by measuring the fair value of the underlying asset, which is impacted by current interest rates and taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close or will be funded. At March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the underlying funded mortgage loan commitments had a carrying value of ~~$6.9~~$3.8 million and a fair value of ~~$6.3~~$3.9 million, while the underlying unfunded mortgage loan commitments had a notional amount of ~~$38.6~~$13.9 million. At December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the underlying funded mortgage loan commitments had a carrying value of ~~$11.0~~$4.3 million and a fair value of ~~$11.9~~$4.0 million, while the underlying unfunded mortgage loan commitments had a notional amount of ~~$29.7~~$12.0 million. The interest rate lock commitments ~~decreased~~increased other noninterest income by ~~$0.9~~$0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

In addition, based on customer activity, a small amount of interest income on loans ismay be exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. Several commercial borrowers have a portion of their operations outside of the United States and from time to time borrow funds on a short-term basis to fund those operations. In order to reduce the risk related to the translation of foreign denominated transactions into U.S. dollars, the Company ~~enters~~may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts. These contracts relate principally to the Euro and the Canadian dollar. The contracts are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in "Other operating expense" in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income. ~~The increase in~~At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no foreign exchange contracts outstanding and there was no impact to other noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $1 thousand. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the underlying loans had a carrying value of $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively, and a fair value of $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively.2023.

Note 1213 Goodwill

FASB ASC Topic 350-20, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other” requires an annual valuation of the fair value of a reporting unit that has goodwill and a comparison of the fair value to the book value of equity to determine whether the goodwill has been impaired. Goodwill is also required to be tested on an interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has been incurred. When circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value, a triggering event has occurred and a quantitative impairment test would be performed.

We consider First Commonwealth to be one reporting unit. The carrying amount of goodwill ~~as both of~~at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 was $360.4 million and $303.3 ~~million.~~million, respectively. The $57.1 million increase in goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2023 is the result of the Centric acquisition. No impairment charges on goodwill or other intangible assets were incurred in ~~2022~~2023 or ~~2021.~~2022.

We test goodwill for impairment as of November 30th each year and again at any quarter-end if any material events occur during a quarter that may affect goodwill.

As of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, no indicators of impairment were identified; however, changing economic conditions that may adversely affect our performance, the fair value of our assets and liabilities, or our stock price could result in impairment, which could adversely affect earnings in future periods. Management will continue to monitor events that could impact this conclusion in the future.

With the acquisition of Centric, First Commonwealth acquired a ten-year subordinated note with a principal balance of $6.0 million. The rate remains fixed at 4.50% until March 29, 2026, then adjusts quarterly to Prime + 1.00%. The Bank may redeem the notes, beginning with the interest payment due on March 29, 2026, in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. A fair value premium of $0.6 million was recognized in connection with the acquisition.

On May 21, 2018, First Commonwealth issued ten-year subordinated notes with an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million and a fixed-to-floating rate of 4.875%. The rate remains fixed until June 1, 2023, then adjusts on a quarterly basis to three-month LIBOR + 1.845%. The Bank may redeem the notes, beginning with the interest payment due on June 1, 2023, in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. Deferred issuance costs of $0.9 million are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the notes.

On May 21, 2018, First Commonwealth issued fifteen-year subordinated notes with an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million and a fixed-to-floating rate of 5.50%. The rate remains fixed until June 1, 2028, then adjusts on a quarterly basis to three-month LIBOR + 2.37%. The Bank may redeem the notes, beginning with the interest payment due on June 1, 2028, in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. Deferred issuance costs of $1.1 million are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the notes.

First Commonwealth currently has two trusts, First Commonwealth Capital Trust II and First Commonwealth Capital Trust III, of which 100% of the common equity is owned by First Commonwealth. The trusts were formed for the purpose of issuing company obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities to third-party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities solely in junior subordinated debt securities (“subordinated debentures”) of First Commonwealth. The subordinated debentures held by each trust are the sole assets of the trust.

Interest on the debentures issued to First Commonwealth Capital Trust III is paid quarterly at a floating rate of three-month LIBOR + 2.85% which is reset quarterly. Subject to regulatory approval, First Commonwealth may redeem the debentures, in whole or in part, at its option on any interest payment date at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the redemption. Deferred issuance costs of $0.6 million are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the securities.

Interest on the debentures issued to First Commonwealth Capital Trust II is paid quarterly at a floating rate of three-month LIBOR + 2.85%, which is reset quarterly. Subject to regulatory approval, First Commonwealth may redeem the debentures, in whole or in part, at its option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the redemption. Deferred issuance costs of $0.5 million are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the securities.

In order to reduce its exposure to variability in expected future cash flows related to interest payments on First Commonwealth Capital Trust II and III, the Company entered into two interest rate swap contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. These contracts fix the LIBOR based portion of the interest rate on Capital Trust II at 1.515% until August 15, 2024 and on

Note 1415 Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities, certain noninterest income streams such as fees associated with derivatives are not in scope of FASB ASC Topic 606 - ~~Revenue~~"Revenue from Contracts with ~~Customers. ASC~~Customers" ("Topic 606"). Topic 606 is applicable to

~~ITEM 1.~~ ~~Financial Statements and Supplementary Data~~

~~FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)~~

noninterest revenue streams such as trust income, service charges on deposits, insurance and retail brokerage commissions, card-related interchange income and gain(loss) on sale of OREO. For contracts within the scope of ~~ASC~~ Topic 606, the Company immediately expenses contract acquisition costs when the asset that would have resulted from capitalizing these costs would have been amortized in one year or less.

Noninterest revenue streams in-scope of Topic 606 are discussed below:

Trust Income

Trust income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and other customer assets. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over time and the resulting fees are recognized monthly, based upon a tiered scale of market value of the assets under management at month-end. Payment is generally received a few days after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. The Company does not earn performance-based incentives. Optional services such as financial planning or tax return preparation services are also available to trust customers. The Company’s performance obligation for these transactional-based services is generally satisfied and related revenue recognized at a point in time. Payment is received shortly after services are rendered.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of fees earned from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, overdraft services and account analysis fees. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment fees, statement rendering and ACH fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed which is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Monthly account maintenance fees are earned over the course of the month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, during the month the service is provided. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Insurance and Retail Brokerage Commissions

Insurance income primarily consists of commissions received from execution of personal, business and health insurance policies when acting as an agent on behalf of insurance carriers. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied upon the issuance of the insurance policy. Because the Company’s contracts with the insurance carriers are generally cancellable by either party, with minimal notice, insurance commissions are recognized during the policy period as received. Also, the majority of insurance commissions are received on a monthly basis during the policy period; however, some carriers pay the full annual commission to First Commonwealth at the time of policy issuance or renewal. In these cases, First Commonwealth would be required to refund any commissions it would not be entitled to as a result of cancelled or terminated policies. The Company has established a refund liability for the remaining term of the policies expected to be cancelled. The Company also receives incentive-based contingency fees from the insurance carriers. Contingency fee revenue, which totals approximately $0.3 million per year, is recognized as received due to the immaterial amount.

Retail brokerage income primarily consists of commissions received on annuity and investment product sales through a third-party service provider. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied upon the issuance of the annuity policy or the execution of an investment transaction. The Company does not earn a significant amount of trailer fees on annuity sales. However, after considering the factors impacting these trailer fees, such as the uncertainty of investor behavior and changes in the market value of assets, First Commonwealth determined that it would recognize trailing fees as received because it could not reasonably estimate an amount of future trailing commissions for which collection is probable. Commissions from the third-party service provider are received on a monthly basis based upon customer activity for the month. The fees are recognized monthly with a receivable until commissions are received from the third-party service provider the following month. Because the Company acts as an agent in arranging the relationship between the customer and the third-party service provider and does not control the services rendered to the customers, retail brokerage fees are presented net of related costs, including $0.9 million and $0.9 million in commission expense as of March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

not control the services rendered to the customers, retail brokerage fees are presented net of related costs, including $1.0 million and $0.9 million in commission expense as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Card-Related Interchange Income

Card-related interchange income is primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees and merchant services income. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as MasterCard. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Card-related interchange income is recognized daily as the customer transactions are settled.

Other Income

Other income includes service revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks, and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for these services are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.

Gains(losses) on sales of OREO

First Commonwealth records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When First Commonwealth finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, an assessment of whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract is completed along with an evaluation of whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, First Commonwealth adjusts the transaction price and the related ~~gain(loss)~~gain or loss on sale if a significant financing component is present.

First Commonwealth may suspend or discontinue the program at any time.

Explanation of Use of Non-GAAP Financial ~~Measure~~Measures

In addition to the results of operations presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), First Commonwealth management uses, and this quarterly report contains or references, certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding our underlying operational performance and our business and performance trends as they facilitate comparison with the performance of others in the financial services industry. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

We believe the presentation of net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice. Interest income per the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income is reconciled to net interest income adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent basis on pages 5155 for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Net Income

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, First Commonwealth had net income of $30.2 million, or $0.30 diluted earnings per share, compared to net income of $27.7 million, or $0.29 diluted earnings per share, ~~compared to net income of $39.8 million, or $0.41 diluted earnings per share,~~ in the three months ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~decrease~~increase in net income was primarily the result of a ~~$2.0~~$26.2 million increase in net interest income and a $4.6 million decrease in provision for credit losses, ~~recognized during~~excluding the ~~three months ended March 31, 2022 compared~~$10.7 million in provision expense related to ~~a negative provision of $4.4 million recognized~~the day 1 CECL adjustment on non-PCD loans acquired in the ~~same period~~Centric acquisition.

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company’s return on average equity was ~~10.15%~~10.56% and its return on average assets was ~~1.18%~~1.17%, compared to ~~14.98%~~10.15% and ~~1.77%~~1.18%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was ~~$68.4~~$94.7 million in the first three months of ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~$69.8~~$68.4 million for the same period in ~~2021.~~2022.

~~interest income before provision expense plus noninterest income), at 74.0% and 71.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.~~

The net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis was ~~3.19% and 3.40%~~4.01% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and 3.19% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021, respectively.~~2022. The ~~decline in the~~ net interest margin is ~~primarily attributable to~~affected by changes in the level of interest rates and the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

The taxable equivalent yield on interest-earning assets was ~~3.33%~~4.86% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022, a decrease~~2023, an increase of 30153 basis points compared to the ~~3.63%~~3.33% yield for the same period in ~~2021. Contributing to this decrease~~2022. This change is a $438.2 million decline in average PPP loans, which yield higher rates than the remainder of the loan portfolio. As the PPP loans paid off, due to forgiveness by the US Government, the funds were used to fund growth in the loan and investment portfolios. Additionally, replacement yields on certain loan categories, including commercial variable loans, were lower than the rates on runoff in those categories.

~~The loan yield for the three months ended March 31, 2022, decreased 30 basis points compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily~~largely due to a ~~decline in average PPP loans outstanding. These loans,~~higher loan portfolio yield, which ~~were originated under the CARES Act, had an average balance of $51.1 million and a stated loan rate of 1% and a yield of 13.93% for~~improved by 147 basis points when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. ~~During~~Contributing to this increase was the ~~three months ended~~yield on our adjustable and variable rate commercial loan portfolios, which increased 253 basis points largely due to the Federal Reserve increasing short term interest rates by 450 basis points since March 31, ~~2021, PPP loans averaged $489.4 million with a yield~~2022. Additionally, five basis points of ~~6.58%. The~~the increase in the yield on ~~PPP loans includes~~interest-earnings assets can be attributed to the recognition of ~~PPP loan deferred processing fees, net~~$1.1 million in accretion of ~~deferred origination costs, of $1.5 million for~~ the ~~three months ended March 31, 2022. These amounts are~~purchase accounting marks recognized ~~in interest income~~ as a ~~yield adjustment over the life~~result of the loan with accelerated recognition when a loan is forgiven or paid off. As of March 31, 2022, we expect to recognize additional PPP-related deferred processing fees, net of origination costs, of approximately $0.9 million as an adjustment to yield over the remaining terms of the loans. The balance of PPP loans outstanding at March 31, 2022 totaled $28.9 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, PPP loans generated $1.8 million in income compared to $7.9 million during the same period in 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, PPP loans increased the yield on total loans by 7 basis points and the net interest margin by 6 basis points. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company processed forgiveness on $43.0 million of PPP loans originated in prior quarters.Centric acquisition.

The investment portfolio yield ~~decreased 15~~increased 32 basis points in comparison to the prior year as ~~a result of $335.5 million in average growth at a time when~~ new volume rates were ~~lower~~higher than the portfolio yield. ~~Growth in the~~The average investment portfolio ~~is a result of continued deposit growth~~balance decreased $291.6 million as ~~well as a decline in interest-bearing~~maturities and runoff funded loan growth. Interest-bearing deposits with banks, which decreased from ~~$340.8 million in 2021 to~~ $284.4 million in ~~2022. The change~~2022 to $46.3 million in ~~the level and rate paid on interest-bearing deposits with banks decreased~~2023 increased the yield on earning assets by 111 basis points for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022.~~2023 as its yield increased 431 basis points.

~~Decreases in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities partially offset the negative impact of lower yields on interest-earning assets.~~ The cost of interest-bearing liabilities ~~decreased~~increased to ~~0.22%~~1.27% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, from ~~0.34%~~0.22% for the same period in ~~2021. Lower market interest rates and management's efforts to reduce deposit costs resulted in the~~2022. The cost of interest-bearing deposits ~~decreasing 10~~increased 99 basis points and short-term borrowings ~~decreasing 4~~increased 358 basis points in comparison to the same period last year. The increase in cost of interest-bearing deposits can be attributed to higher market interest rates and changes in the mix of deposits as customers moved funds to take advantage of the increased rates. Comparing the three months ended March 31, 2023 with the comparable period in 2022, average time deposits increased $307.7 million, or 82.2%, while the cost of these deposits increased 205 basis points. Contributing to average growth in time deposits was an average of $54.0 million acquired as part of the Centric acquisition. Other interest-bearing deposits increased on average $331.7 million, or 6.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the cost of these deposits increased 84 basis points. Average growth in other-interest bearing deposits attributable to the Centric acquisition totaled $251.0 million.

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, changes in ~~interest~~ rates ~~negatively~~positively impacted net interest income by ~~$4.8~~$14.7 million when compared with the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~lower~~higher yield on interest-earning assets impacted net interest income by $31.6 million, while the increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities negatively impacted net interest income by ~~$5.6 million, while the decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities positively impacted net interest income by $0.8~~$16.8 million.

Changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities positively impacted net interest income by ~~$3.5~~$11.5 million for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, as compared to the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. Higher levels of interest-earning assets resulted in an increase of ~~$2.7~~$11.8 million in interest income, and changes in the volume and mix of interest-bearing liabilities ~~decreased~~increased interest expense by ~~$0.8 million, primarily due to a decrease in long-term debt.~~$0.3 million. Average earning assets for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 increased ~~$391.2~~$878.2 million, or ~~4.7%~~10.1%, compared to the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. Average loans for the comparable period increased ~~$112.2 million,~~$1.4 billion, or ~~1.7%~~20.4%.

Net interest income also benefited from a ~~$223.2~~$84.2 million increase in average net free funds at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 as compared to March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Average net free funds are the excess of noninterest-bearing demand deposits, other noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity over noninterest-earning assets. The largest component of the increase in net free funds was an increase of ~~$231.7~~$33.3 million, or ~~9.6%~~1.3%, in noninterest-bearing demand deposit average balances, primarily due to deposit growth related to PPP loan proceeds and government stimulus payments. Average time deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $153.8 million compared to the comparable period in 2021, while the average rate paid on time deposits decreased 46 basis points compared to the same period in 2021.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses is determined based on management’s estimates of the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses needed for expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio and on off-balance sheet commitments. The provision for credit losses is an amount added to the allowance, against which credit losses are charged.

The provision for credit losses on loans and leases for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2021 by $1.1 million, however both periods reflect a negative provision. Total provision expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily the result of growth in off-balance sheet commitments as well as an annual review of peer loss history data which resulted in higher loss rates for construction related commitments. Comparing the three months ended March 31, 2022 with the comparable period in 2021, the provision for credit losses on loans and leases was also impacted by a decrease of $2.8 million in reserves on individually analyzed loans.

Because PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, there is no allowance for credit losses recognized for these loans. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, increases in provision expense for Time and demand and Residential first lien as well as the negative provision for Automobile and recreational vehicles are primarily the result of an annual review of peer loss history data used in the Allowance for Credit Loss model. Provision expense was also impacted by loan growth in these categories.

~~The negative~~ provision expense for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021 was primarily~~2023, increased $6.0 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase is a result of ~~an improved economic forecast which reflected~~$10.7 million in provision expense recognized in the first quarter of 2023 as the day 1 non-PCD provision expense resulting from the Centric acquisition offset by a $4.2 million decline in the ~~projected impact~~provision for off-balance sheet commitments.

The allowance for credit losses was ~~$91.2~~$133.9 million, or ~~1.31%~~1.55%, of total loans outstanding at March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~$92.5~~$102.9 million, or 1.35%, at December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$96.8~~$91.2 million, or ~~1.44%~~1.31%, at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans and leases decreased to ~~0.54%~~0.51% at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 from ~~0.81% at December 31, 2021 and 0.75%~~0.54% as of March 31, ~~2021.~~2022 and increased from 0.46% at December 31, 2022. The allowance to nonperforming loan ratio was ~~243.38%~~302.67%, ~~167.67%~~289.98% and ~~192.06%~~243.38% as of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

Management believes that the allowance for credit losses is at a level deemed appropriate to absorb expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

Noninterest expense increased ~~$3.9~~$15.7 million, or 7%28%, for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 compared to the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. Contributing to the increase in expense in ~~2022~~2023 is ~~a $2.3~~$8.5 million ~~increase~~ in merger-related expenses associated with the Centric acquisition. Additionally, salaries and employee benefits increased $3.3 million primarily due to the number of full time equivalent employees, ~~increasing~~which increased from ~~1,387 at March 31, 2021 to~~ 1,432 at March 31, ~~2022.~~2022 to 1,536 at March 31, 2023, largely due to the Centric acquisition. Additionally, increases in net occupancy, furniture and equipment and intangible amortization all reflected increases as a result of Centric. Data processing costs increased $0.2 million due to continued investment in our digital banking and other product offerings. Contributing to the increase in other operating expenses were several expense categories, including, ~~credit reporting,~~ travel, interview and placement, telephone and operational losses, none of which were individually significant.

FDIC insurance increased $0.7 million due to both the impact of Centric as well as a 2 basis point increase in the FDIC deposit insurance assessment rate which began in the first quarterly assessment period of 2023. The assessment rate increase is estimated to increase the Company's annual FDIC assessment by approximately $1.7 million.

Income Tax

The provision for income taxes ~~decreased $2.8~~increased $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to the corresponding period in ~~2021.~~2022, due to the increase in income before income taxes.

We applied the “annual effective tax rate approach” to determine the provision for income taxes, which applies an annual forecast of tax expense as a percentage of expected full year income, for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

We generate an annual effective tax rate that is less than the statutory rate of 21% due to benefits resulting from tax-exempt interest, income from bank-owned life insurance and tax benefits associated with low income housing tax credits, all of which are relatively consistent regardless of the level of pretax income. These provided for an ~~annual~~ effective tax rate of ~~19.5%~~20.3% and ~~19.4%~~19.5% for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

As of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, our deferred tax assets totaled ~~$41.4~~$69.7 million. Based on our evaluation, we determined that it is more likely than not that all of these assets will be realized. As a result, a valuation allowance against these assets was not recorded. In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance, we estimate future taxable income based on management approved forecasts, evaluation of historical earning levels and consideration of potential tax strategies. If future events differ from our current forecasts, we may need to establish a valuation allowance, which could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Liquidity

Liquidity refers to our ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers as well as our operating cash needs with cost-effective funding. We generate funds to meet these needs primarily through the core deposit base of First Commonwealth Bank and the maturity or repayment of loans and other interest-earning assets, including investments. During the first three months of ~~2022,~~2023, the maturity and redemption of investment securities provided ~~$78.9~~$66.2 million in liquidity.

The brokered deposits included in the ~~FHLB~~table above are a result of ~~Pittsburgh, borrowings through the discount window at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (“FRB”) and access to certificates of deposit through brokers.~~

~~We participate~~our participation in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Services (“CDARS”) program as part of an Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) strategy to increase and diversify funding sources. As of March 31, ~~2022, our maximum borrowing capacity under this program was $1.4 billion, and as~~2023, the outstanding balance of ~~that date there was $5.8~~$18.7 million ~~outstanding with~~carried an average weighted rate of ~~0.55%~~3.20% and an average original term of ~~341~~215 days.

During the ~~borrowing capacity under this program totaled $1.1 billion and there was no balance outstanding. As~~first quarter of ~~March 31, 2022, our maximum borrowing capacity at~~2023, the Company increased its liquidity by purchasing $519.0 million in letters of credit from the FHLB of Pittsburgh, ~~was $1.8 billion and as~~which were then used to secure public deposits. This resulted in a similar amount of ~~that date amounts used against this capacity included $5.4~~previously pledged securities becoming unencumbered. Additionally, new short-term borrowings in the amount of $250.0 million were entered into in ~~outstanding borrowings and no outstanding letters of credit.~~

We also have available unused federal funds lines with four correspondent banks. These lines have an aggregate commitment of $160.0 million with no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2022. In addition, we have available unused repo lines with two correspondent banks. These lines have an aggregate commitment of $400.0 million with no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2022.

During the first three months of ~~2022,~~2023, total deposits increased ~~$189.3 million.~~$1.2 billion, of which $757.0 million were acquired as part of the Centric acquisition. Interest-bearing demand and savings deposits increased ~~$149.4~~$744.1 million, noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased ~~$60.9~~$27.7 million and time deposits ~~decreased $20.9~~increased $457.7 million.

The estimated total of uninsured deposits was $2.5 billion at March 31, 2023 and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2022. Additionally, $1.0 billion of uninsured deposits are secured by pledged investment securities or letters of credit. Uninsured amounts are estimated based on known account relationships for each depositor and insurance guidelines provided by the FDIC.

Market Risk

The following gap analysis compares the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities subject to repricing over a period of time. The ratio of rate-sensitive assets to rate-sensitive liabilities repricing within a one-year period was ~~0.81 and 0.84~~0.76 at both March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021, respectively.~~2022. A ratio of less than one indicates a higher level of repricing liabilities over repricing assets over the next twelve months. The level of First Commonwealth's ratio is largely driven by the modeling of interest-bearing non-maturity deposits, which are included in the analysis as repricing within one year.

Gap analysis has limitations due to the static nature of the model that holds volumes and consumer behaviors constant in all economic and interest rate scenarios. A lower level of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities repricing in one year could indicate reduced net interest income in a rising interest rate scenario, and conversely, increased net interest income in a declining interest rate scenario. However, the gap analysis incorporates only the level of interest-earning assets and ~~interest-~~

The analysis and model used to quantify the sensitivity of our net interest income becomes less meaningful in a decreasing 200 basis point scenario given the current interest rate environment. Results of the 100 and 200 basis point interest rate decline scenario are affected by the fact that many of our interest-bearing liabilities are at rates below 1%, with an assumed floor of zero in the model. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities averaged ~~0.22%~~1.27% and ~~0.34%~~0.22%, respectively, and the yield on our average interest-earning assets, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, averaged ~~3.33%~~4.86% and ~~3.63%~~3.33%, respectively.

Asset/liability models require that certain assumptions be made, such as prepayment rates on earning assets and the impact of pricing on non-maturity deposits, which may differ from actual experience. These business assumptions are based upon our experience, business plans and published industry experience. While management believes such assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that modeled results will approximate actual results.

Credit Risk

First Commonwealth maintains an allowance for credit losses at a level deemed sufficient for losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio at the date of each statement of financial condition. Management reviews the appropriateness of the allowance on a quarterly basis to ensure that the provision for credit losses has been charged against earnings in an amount necessary to maintain the allowance at a level that is appropriate based on management’s assessment of probable estimated losses.

First Commonwealth’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses consists of several key elements. These elements include an assessment of individual nonperforming loans with a balance greater than $250 thousand, loss experience trends and other relevant factors.

First Commonwealth also maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit based upon credit risk and probability of funding. The reserve totaled ~~$8.6~~$8.2 million at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and is classified in "Other liabilities" on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans and loans classified as troubled debt restructurings. Nonaccrual loans represent loans on which interest accruals have been discontinued. Troubled debt restructured loans are those loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as a result of the deteriorating financial position of the borrower, who could not obtain comparable terms from alternative financing sources. In the first three months of 2022, two loans totaling $0.1 million were identified as troubled debt restructurings.

The balance of troubled debt restructured loans decreased $3.3 million from December 31, 2021. Changes during the first three months of 2022 can be attributed to the pay off and paydown of troubled debt loans. Please refer to Note 7 “Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses,” for additional information on troubled debt restructurings.

We discontinue interest accruals on a loan when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to fully collect principal or interest due according to the contractual terms of the loan. A loan is also placed on nonaccrual status when, based on regulatory definitions, the loan is maintained on a “cash basis” due to the weakened financial condition of the borrower. Generally, loans 90 days or more past due are placed on nonaccrual status, except for consumer loans, which are placed on nonaccrual status at 150 days past due.

Nonperforming loans are closely monitored on an ongoing basis as part of our loan review and work-out process. The probable risk of loss on these loans is evaluated by comparing the loan balance to the fair value of any underlying collateral or the present value of projected future cash flows. Losses or a specifically assigned allowance for loan losses are recognized where appropriate.

~~Nonperforming loans,~~leases, including loans held for sale, ~~decreased $17.7~~increased $8.7 million to ~~$37.5~~$44.2 million at March 31, ~~2022~~2023, compared to ~~$55.2~~$35.5 million at December 31, ~~2021. During~~2022. The increase in nonperforming loans is primarily a result of $14.9 million in loans acquired from Centric, offset by the ~~three months ended March 31, 2022,~~removal of $6.4 million in accruing TDR's. The TDR's were eliminated as a ~~$14.5 million commercial real estate loan~~result of our adoption of ASU 2022-02. The adoption of this guidance was ~~removed from nonaccrual status and subsequent to March 31, 2022 the loan was paid off in full. During the same period $0.7 million of loans were moved to nonaccrual.~~effective January 1, 2023.

The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was ~~243.38%~~302.67% as of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~167.67%~~289.98% at December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~192.06%~~243.38% at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The amount of ~~specific~~individually assessed reserves included in the allowance for nonperforming loans and leases was determined by using fair values obtained from current appraisals and updated discounted cash flow analyses. The allowance for credit losses includes specific reserves of ~~$0.4~~$14.7 million and general reserves of ~~$90.8~~$112.1 million as of March 31, ~~2022.~~2023. Specific reserves ~~decreased $44 thousand~~increased $14.0 million from December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~$2.8~~$14.4 million from March 31, ~~2021. The decrease~~2022 as a result of individually analyzed PCD loans acquired from both periods is primarily due to the charge-off and payoffs of relationships with specific reserves assigned. Management believes that the allowance for credit losses is at a level deemed sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2022.Centric.

Criticized loans totaled ~~$174.1~~$189.9 million at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and represented 3%2% of the loan portfolio.

Classified loans totaled ~~$75.3~~$77.0 million at March 31, ~~2022~~2023 compared to ~~$77.6~~$44.4 million at December 31, ~~2021, a decrease~~2022, an increase of ~~$2.3~~$32.5 million, or 3%73%. The ~~decrease~~increase in criticized loans is the result of ~~the aforementioned changes in nonperforming~~PCD loans acquired as ~~well as credit upgrades on borrowers primarily in the hospitality sector. Delinquency on accruing loans for the same period increased $14.1 million, or 134%, as a result~~part of the commercial real estate loan that was moved out of a nonaccrual status being 30 days delinquent at March 31, 2022. At March 31, 2022, this loan was well secured and in the process of collection and subsequent to March 31, 2022, this loan paid off in full.Centric acquisition.

The allowance for credit losses was ~~$91.2~~$133.9 million at March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, or ~~1.31%~~1.55% of total loans and leases outstanding, compared to 1.35% reported at December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~1.44%~~1.31% at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

The decrease in the general reserve from December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021 are reflective of lower unemployment rates utilized to forecast future loan losses~~1.31% at March 31, 2022.

Capital Resources

At March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, shareholders’ equity was ~~$1.1~~$1.2 billion, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$41.8~~$172.9 million from December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~decrease~~increase was primarily the result of $141.4 million in stock issued as part of the Centric acquisition, $30.2 million in net income and a ~~$59.4~~$13.1 million ~~decline~~increase in the fair value of available for sale investments and interest rate swaps, which are reflected in the Other Comprehensive Income component of capital. Other items impacting capital include increases ~~of $27.7 million in net income and $2.2~~due to $2.3 million in treasury stock ~~sales. These increases were partially~~sales, offset by ~~$10.8~~$12.4 million of dividends paid to shareholders and ~~$1.5~~$1.7 million of common stock repurchases. Cash dividends declared per common share were ~~$0.115~~$0.120 for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022 and $0.11 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.~~2023.

First Commonwealth and First Commonwealth Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on First Commonwealth’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, First Commonwealth and First Commonwealth Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of First Commonwealth’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. First Commonwealth’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weighting and other factors.

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company became subject to the new regulatory risk-based capital rules adopted by the federal banking agencies implementing Basel III. The most significant changes included higher minimum capital requirements, as the minimum Tier I capital ratio increased from 4.0% to 6.0% and a new common equity Tier I capital ratio was established with a minimum level of 4.5%. Additionally, the rules improved the quality of capital by providing stricter eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments and provide for a phase-in, beginning January 1, 2016, of a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. This buffer, which was fully phased-in as of January 1, 2019, provides a requirement to hold common equity Tier 1 capital above the minimum risk-based capital requirements, resulting in an effective common equity Tier I risk-weighted asset minimum ratio of 7.0% on a fully phased-in basis.

~~FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

The Basel III Rules also permit banking organizations with less than $15.0 billion in assets to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income, which currently does not affect regulatory capital. The Company elected to retain this treatment, which reduces the volatility of regulatory capital levels.

FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

During the second quarter of 2018, First Commonwealth Bank, the Company's banking subsidiary, issued $100 million in subordinated debt, which under the regulatory rules qualifies as Tier II capital. This subordinated debt issuance increased the total risk-based capital ratio by 160 basis points.

AsIn March 2020, regulators issued interim financial rule (“IFR”) “Regulatory Capital Rule: Revised Transition of the Current Expected Losses Methodology for Allowances” in response to the disrupted economic activity from the pandemic. The IFR provides financial institutions that adopt CECL during 2020 with the option to delay for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided by the initial two-year delay (“five-year transition”). The Company adopted CECL effective January 1, 2020 and elected to implement the five-year transition. Regulatory capital levels without the capital benefit at March 31, ~~2022,~~2023 for both First Commonwealth and First Commonwealth Bank would have continued to be greater than the ~~Company had $28.9 million in PPP loans outstanding under~~amounts needed to be considered “well capitalized”, as the ~~CARES Act. Because these loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA, banking regulators confirmed that they have~~transition provided a ~~zero percent risk weight under applicable risk-based~~ capital ~~rules. Additionally, a bank may exclude all PPP loans pledged as collateral~~benefit of approximately 9 to the Federal Reserve's PPP Facility from average total assets when calculating its leverage ratio, while PPP loans that are not pledged as collateral to the PPP Facility will be included. The PPP loans originated by the Company are included in our leverage ratio as of March 31, 2022, as we did not utilize the PPP Facility.12 basis points.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, FASB released Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which

provides optional guidance to ease the accounting burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects from, reference rate

reform on financial reporting. The new standard is a result of the ~~potential~~ discontinuance of the London Interbank Offered Rate

("LIBOR") as an available benchmark rate. The standard is elective and provides optional expedients and exceptions for

applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, or other transactions that reference LIBOR, or another reference rate

expected to be discontinued. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient allowing for a contract modification,

due to reference rate reform, to be accounted for as a continuation of the existing contract and does not require contract

remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. The amendments in the update

are effective for all entities between March 12, 2020 and December 31, ~~2022.~~2024 (In December 2022, FASB released ASU

2022-06, which extended the original sunset date in ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024). The

Company has established a cross-functional working group to manage the Company’s transition from LIBOR. Products that utilize LIBOR have been identified and have incorporated enhanced language to accommodate the transition to alternative reference rates and the use of LIBOR has been discontinued as an index for new loans. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the LIBOR transition and adopting the new standard.

~~FIRST COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

In March 2022, FASB released ASU 2022-02 – “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (“ASU 2022-02”). ASU 2022-22 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) while expanding modification and vintage disclosure requirements. Under the previous guidance a TDR occurs when a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty is restructured with a concession provided that a creditor would not otherwise consider. ASU 2022-02 removes the TDR accounting model, instead requiring modifications to apply existing refinancing and restructuring guidance to determine if the modification results in a new loan or is a continuation of the existing one. The update also requires additional disclosures on the nature, magnitude and subsequent performance of certain types of modifications with borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. ASU 2022-02 further includes a requirement to disclose gross charge-offs incurred by year of origination of the related loan or lease. ASU 2022-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2022-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, but will result in additional disclosure requirements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I, Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022, except for the following risk factor.

Risks Related to Recent Events Impacting the Financial Services Industry

Recent events impacting the financial services industry, including the failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, have resulted in decreased confidence in banks among some consumer and commercial depositors, other counterparties and investors, as well as significant disruption, volatility and reduced valuations of equity and other securities of banks in the capital markets. These events occurred during a period of rapidly rising interest rates which, among other things, has resulted in unrealized losses in longer duration securities and loans held by banks, more competition for bank deposits and may increase the risk of a potential recession. These recent events have, and could continue to have, an adverse impact on the market price and volatility of the Company’s common stock.

These recent events may also result in potentially adverse changes to laws or regulations governing banks and bank holding companies or result in the impositions of restrictions through supervisory or enforcement activities, including higher capital requirements, which could have a material impact on our business. Inability to access short-term funding, loss of client deposits or changes in our credit ratings could increase the cost of funding, limit access to capital markets or negatively impact our overall liquidity or capitalization. We may be impacted by concerns regarding the soundness or creditworthiness of other financial institutions, which can cause substantial and cascading disruption within the financial markets and increased expenses. The cost of resolving the recent bank failures may prompt the FDIC to increase its premiums above the recently increased levels or to issue additional special assessments.
