SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note A – Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 20202021 or any other period. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in the application of certain of its accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions. The Company has established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. These estimates and assumptions, which may materially affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and changes in this information over time and the use of revised estimates and assumptions could materially affect amounts reported in subsequent financial statements. Specific areas, among others, requiring the application of management’s estimates include determination of the allowance for credit losses, acquisition accounting and purchased loans, intangible assets and impairment testing, other fair value adjustments, income taxes and realization of deferred tax assetsmeasurements and contingent liabilities.
Adoption of new accounting pronouncements:
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC Topic 326")which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity ("HTM") debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposure such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments. In addition, ASC Topic 326 changed the accounting for impairment of available-for-sale ("AFS") debt securities.
The Company adopted ASC Topic 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Results for the reporting period beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC Topic 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The following table reflects the cumulative effect of adoption:

Retained earnings195,813
 (16,876) 178,937

ASC Topic 326 introduced new definitions and criteria for categorizing purchased loans. Loans that, as of the date of acquisition, have experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination are classified as purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD"). Acquired loans which do not meet the definition of PCD are classified by the Company as acquired non-PCD. At the date of adoption, the Company reclassified all loans previously classified as purchased credit impaired ("PCI") to PCD, and increased the allowance by $0.7 million with a corresponding adjustment to these loans' amortized cost basis. The remaining noncredit discount on loans previously classified as PCI was $0.9 million, which will be accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loans.

Under CECL, the Company estimates the allowance using relevant available information, from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit losses provide the basis for estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, loan to value ratios, borrower credit characteristics, loan seasoning or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, occupancy rates, and other macroeconomic metrics.
For loans analyzed on a collective basis, the Company has developed an allowance model based on an analysis of probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD") to determine an expected loss by loan segment. PDs and LGDs are developed by analyzing the average historical loss migration of loans to default. The Company excludes accrued interest on loans from its determination of allowance.
The allowance estimation process also applies an economic forecast scenario over a three year forecast period. The forecast may utilize one scenario or a composite of scenarios based on management's judgment and expectations around the current and future macroeconomic outlook. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modification unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") will be executed with an individual borrower, or the extension or renewal options are explicitly stated in the contract and are not unconditionally under the control of the Company. For portfolio segments with a weighted average life longer than three years, the Company reverts to longer term historical loss experience, adjusted for prepayments, to estimate losses over the remaining life of the loans within each segment.
Adjustments may be made to baseline reserves based on an assessment of internal and external influences on credit quality not fully reflected in the quantitative components of the allowance model. These influences may include elements such as changes in concentration, macroeconomic conditions, recent observable asset quality trends, staff turnover, regional market conditions, employment levels and loan growth. Based upon management's assessments of these factors, the Company may apply qualitative adjustments to the allowance.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation. Loans evaluated individually are collateral dependent and primarily secured by real estate. When management determines that foreclosure is probable, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.
A loan for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, is considered to be a TDR. The allowance for credit losses on a TDR is measured using the same method as all other loans held for investment, except when the value of a concession cannot be measured using a method other than the discounted cash flow method. When the value of a concession is measured using the discounted cash flow method, the allowance for credit losses is determining by discounting the expected future cash flows at the original interest rate of the loan.
The Company estimates a reserve for unfunded commitments, which is reported separately from the allowance for credit losses within other liabilities. The reserve is based upon the same quantitative and qualitative factors applied to the collectively evaluated loan portfolio.
All HTM debt securities are issued by government sponsored entities, which are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government and have a long history of no credit losses. In addition, the credit rating on all the Company's HTM debt securities as of the date of adoption is AA+. There is no history of the government withholding or limiting support to these agencies, nor is there any indication of change to that historical support. While the potential for default on these securities may be something greater than zero, the long history with no credit losses, the implied government guarantee of principal and interest payments and the high credit rating of the HTM portfolio provide sufficient basis for the current expectation that there is zero risk of loss if default were to occur. As a result, the Company recorded 0 allowance for HTM debt securities with a fair value less than amortized cost basis at the date of adoption.
ASC Topic 326 amended the existing other-than-temporary-impairment guidance for AFS securities, requiring credit losses to be recorded as an allowance rather than through a permanent write-down. When evaluating AFS debt securities under ASC Topic 326, the Company has evaluated whether the decline in fair value is attributed to credit losses or other factors using both quantitative and qualitative analyses, including cash flow analysis, review of credit ratings, remaining payment terms, prepayment speeds and analysis of macro-economic conditions. At the date of adoption, collateralized loan obligations had unrealized losses of $1.2 million. The collateral for these securities is first lien senior secured corporate debt, and the Company holds senior tranches rated A or higher. Based on this analysis, the Company believes that the unrealized loss position for AFS debt securities at the time of adoption was the result of both broad investment type spreads and the current rate environment. Each investment is expected to

10



recover its price depreciations over its holding period as it moves to maturity and the Company has the intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity if necessary. As a result of this evaluation, the Company concluded that no allowance was appropriate.

Note B – Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted
None this period.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The guidance provides accounting relief for contract modifications that replace an interest rate impacted by reference rate reform (e.g., London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR")) with a new alternative reference rate. The guidance is applicable to investment securities, receivables, loans, debt, leases, derivatives and hedge accounting elections and other contractual arrangements. The Company applied the guidance prospectively beginning April 1, 2020, and expects no material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note C – Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020,2021, 0 options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock were anti-dilutive, compared to 489,000 shares were antidilutive and, accordingly,that were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share compared to 487,000 shares for the three months ended March 31, 2019.2020.

At March 31, 2021, the Company had $6.8 million of unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities and at December 31, 2019, thecollateralized mortgage obligations issued by government-sponsored entities having a fair value of available-for-sale$319.7 million. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government and held-to-maturityhave a long history of no credit losses. The implied government guarantee of principal and interest payments and the high credit rating of the portfolio provide sufficient basis for the current expectation that there is no risk of loss if default were to occur. Based on the assessment of all relevant factors, the Company believes that the unrealized loss positions on these debt securities with unrealizedare a function of changes in investment spreads and interest rate movements and not changes in credit quality, and expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities. Therefore, at March 31, 2021, 0 allowance for credit losses for which no allowance has been recorded.

The collateral underlying these mortgage investments is primarily residential real estate. The securities have average credit support of 31%. Based on the assessment of all relevant factors, the Company believes that the unrealized loss positions on these debt securities are a function of changes in investment spreads and interest rate movements and not changes in credit quality, and expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities.

All HTM debt securities are issued by government sponsoredgovernment-sponsored entities, which are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government and have a long history of no credit losses. In addition, the credit rating on all HTM debt securities is AA+. While the potential for default on these securities may be something greater than zero, the long history with no credit losses, the implied government guarantee of principal and interest payments and the high credit rating of the HTM portfolio provide sufficient basis for the current expectation that there is no risk of loss if default were to occur. Despite the emergence of significant market changes and increasing degrees of uncertainty in the U.S. economy late in the first quarter of 2020, there has to date been no specific impact on the agencies or changes in the nature or quality of the guarantee they provide. As a result, as of March 31, 2020,2021, 0 allowance for credit losses has been recorded.

Loans by Risk Rating

The Company utilizes an internal asset classification system as a means of identifying problem and potential problem loans. The following classifications are used to categorize loans under the internal classification system:

Pass: Loans that are not problem loans or potential problem loans are considered to be pass-rated.
Special Mention: Loans that do not currently expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant classification in the Substandard or Doubtful categories, but possess weaknesses that deserve management's close attention are deemed to be Special Mention.
17

Table of Contents

Substandard: Loans with the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Substandard Impaired: Substandard loans,Loans typically placed on nonaccrual and considered to be collateral dependent. Also includescollateral-dependent or accruing TDRs.
Doubtful: Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weakness present makes collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The principal balance of loans classified as doubtful are likely to be charged off.

Loans Modified in Connection with COVID-19 Pandemic
The CARES Act, which was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act on December 27, 2020, encourages financial institutions to practice prudent efforts to work with borrowers financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic by providing an option to exclude from TDR consideration certain loan modifications that might otherwise be categorized as TDRs under ASC 310-40. This option is available for modifications that are deemed to be COVID-related, where the borrower was not more than 30 days past due on December 31, 2019, and the modification is executed between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of (i) January 1, 2022 or (ii) 60 days after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency.

Federal banking regulators issued similar guidance that also allows lenders to conclude that short-term modifications for borrowers affected by the pandemic should not be considered TDRs if the borrower was current at the time of modification. Seacoast has provided financially impacted borrowers with loan accommodations, primarily consisting of payment deferrals of up to six months. At its peak on June 30, 2020, loans on deferral represented $1.1 billion, or 21% of total non-PPP loans. In the second half of 2020, the large majority of these borrowers successfully resumed making contractual payments, and the level of loans with accommodations decreased to $28.4 million, or 0.6% of total non-PPP loans at March 31, 2021. Types of outstanding accommodations at March 31, 2021 included a combination of one or more of the following: full payment deferral, partial payment deferral, reduction of interest rate, extension of the original maturity date, or re-amortization of the facility.
The following table presents the risk ratingbalance of loans as of:with active payment accommodations at the specified dates, excluding PPP loans:

Troubled Debt Restructured Loans
The Company’s TDR concessions granted to certain borrowers generally do not include forgiveness of principal balances, but may include interest rate reductions, an extension of the amortization period and/or converting the loan to interest only for a limited period of time. Loan modifications are not reported in calendar years after modification if the loans were modified at an interest rate equal to the yields of new loan originations with comparable risk and the loans are performing based on the terms of the restructuring agreements.
In March 2020, regulatory agencies issued an interagency statement on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID–19. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short–term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID–19 pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short–term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant and were made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of (i) December 31, 2020 or (ii) 60 days after the end of the COVID–19 national emergency. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. In March 2020, the Company processed short-term payment deferrals on loans totaling approximately $512 million to borrowers who were current on payments prior to deferral. None of these payment deferrals have have been classified as TDRs. See additional information in Note M - Subsequent Events.

Management establishes the allowance using relevant available information from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts to project losses over a three-year forecast period. Forecast data is sourced primarily from Moody’s Analytics, a firm widely recognized for its research, analysis, and economic forecasts. For portfolio segments with a weighted average life longer than three years, the Company reverts to longer termlonger-term historical loss experience to estimate losses over the remaining life of the loans within each segment.

Historical credit losses provide the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, loan to value ratios, borrower credit characteristics, loan seasoning or term as well as for changes in current and forecasted environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, occupancy rates, and other macroeconomic metrics.

AtAs of March 31, 2020,2021, the Company utilized Moody’s most recent “U.S. Macroeconomic Outlook Baseline” scenario which predicted a sudden sharp recession in the near term, driven primarily by the COVID-19 pandemic, including a deep drop in U.S. gross domestic product in the second quarter of 2020, followed by a return to growth in the second half of 2020. The Companyand considered the significant uncertainty of factors assumedassociated with the assumptions in the Baseline scenario, including the timing, number and severity of viruspotential for increasing COVID-19 infections the duration of stay-at-home orders and other limitations on businesses, and the amountresulting potential erosion in consumer confidence, and availability of fiscalthe risk that government stimulus including programs offered under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act. The Company considered the potential that outcomesare less effective than expected. Outcomes in any or all of these factors could differ from the Baseline scenario, and the Company incorporated qualitative considerations were incorporated reflecting the risk of uncertain and possibly further deteriorating, economic conditions, and for additional dimensions of risk not captured in the quantitative model.

financing of the underlying property; therefore, industry and collateral type and estimated collateral values are among the relevant factors in assessing expected losses.

In the Commercial Real Estate - Owner OccupiedOwner-Occupied segment, riskthe decrease in reserves is the result of lower loan balances within this segment. Risk characteristics include but are not limited to, collateral type, loan seasoning, and lien position. The introduction of government sponsored programs, including the CARES Act, and the Company's expectation that borrowers in this segment will benefit from these programs, offset the otherwise detrimental effect of the negative economic outlook.
In the Commercial Real Estate - Non Owner OccupiedOwner-Occupied segment, repaymentthe decrease in reserves is the result of lower loan balances within this segment, and reflects improved economic forecast variables including lower unemployment and an improvement in expectations for corporate profits over the forecast period. Repayment is often dependent upon rental income from the successful operation of the underlying property. Loan performance may be adversely affected by general economic conditions or conditions specific to the real estate market, including property types. Collateral type, loan seasoning, and lien position are among the risk characteristics analyzed for this segment. Modeled results as of March 31, 2020 reflected higher estimated probabilities of default and loss given default, in addition to qualitative adjustments for uncertainty of macroeconomic factors.

The Residential Real Estate segment includes first mortgages secured by residential property, and home equity lines of credit. The decrease in reserves reflects the impact of lower loan balances within the segment, a decrease in reserves on individually evaluated loans, improved economic forecast variables including unemployment and continued strength in the Florida housing market. Risk characteristics considered for this segment include, but are not limited to, collateral type, lien position, loan to value ratios, and loan seasoning .The impact of the forecast on home equity lines of credit increased the estimated expected losses in this segment, while closed-end single family mortgages were less impacted due to anticipated government stimulus efforts and high borrower FICO scores.

In the Commercial &and Financial segment, borrowers are primarily small to medium sized professional firms and other businesses, and loans are generally supported by projected cash flows of the business, collateralized by business assets, and/or guaranteed by the business owners.

Note G – Derivatives
Back-to-Back Swaps
The Company offers interest rate swaps when requested by customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. Upon entering into these swaps, the Company enters into offsetting positions with counterparties in order to minimize the interest rate risk. These back-to-back swaps qualify as freestanding financial derivatives with the fair values reported in other assets and other liabilities. The Company is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparties; however, the Company does not offset assets and liabilities under the arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. Gains and losses on these back-to-back swaps, which offset, are recorded through noninterest income. No net gains or losses have been recognized to date on these instruments. As of March 31, 2021, the interest rate swaps had an aggregate notional value of $183.5 million, with a fair value of $10.5 million recorded in other assets and other liabilities. As of December 31, 2020, the interest rate swaps had an aggregate notional value of $182.4 million, with a fair value of $13.3 million recorded in other assets and other liabilities. The weighted average maturity was 7.4 years and 7.5 years as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Interest Rate Floors Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
The Company has entered into interest rate floor contracts to mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows due to changes in interest rates on certain segments of its variable-rate loans. During 2020, the Company entered into 2 interest rate floor contracts, each with a notional amount of $150.0 million, maturing in October 2023 and November 2023. The Company considers these derivatives to be highly effective at achieving offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to changes in interest rates and has designated them as cash flow hedges. Therefore, changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income. Amortization of the premium paid on cash flow hedges is recognized in earnings over the term of the hedge in the same caption as the hedged item. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a loss through other comprehensive income of $0.2 million and reclassified $42,000 out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into interest income. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the interest rate floors had a fair value of $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively, recorded in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Over the next twelve months the Company expects to reclassify $0.3 million from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest income related to these agreements.

Other securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of a security is determined based on market quotations when available or, if not available, by using quoted market prices for similar securities, pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses, using observable market data where available.
The Company reviews the prices supplied by independent pricing services, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. The fair value of collateralized loan obligations is determined from broker quotes. From time to time, the Company will validate, on a sample basis, prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from other brokers and third-party sources or derived using internal models.
Derivative financial instruments: The Company offers interest rate swaps to certain loan customers to allow them to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on their variable rate loans. The Company originates a variable rate loan and enters into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap with the customer. The Company also enters into an offsetting swap with a correspondent bank. These back-to-back agreements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to originate a variable rate loan, while

providing a contract for fixed interest payments for the customer. The fair value of these derivatives is based on a discounted cash flow approach. Due to the observable nature of the inputs used in deriving the fair value of these derivative contracts, the valuation of interest rate swaps is classified as Level 2. Other derivatives consist of interest rate floors designated as cash flow hedges. The fair values of these instruments are based upon the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the instruments, taking into account current interest rates and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties. Interest rate floors designated as cash flow hedges are classified within Level 2.
Loans held for sale: Fair values are based upon estimated values to be received from independent third party purchasers. These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. Fair market value changes occur due to changes in interest rates, the borrower’s credit, the secondary loan market and the market for a borrower’s debt. Interest income is recorded based on the contractual terms of the loan and in accordance with the Company’s policy on loans held for investment. None of the loans were 90 days or more past due or on nonaccrual as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019. 2020.
The aggregate fair value and contractual balance of loans held for sale as of March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 is as follows:

Loans: Level 2 loansLoans carried at fair value consist of impairedcollateral-dependent real estate loans which are collateral dependent.loans. Fair value is based on recent real estate appraisals less estimated costs of sale. For residential real estate impaired loans, appraised values or internal evaluations are based on the comparative sales approach. Level 3 loans consist of commercial and commercial real estate impaired loans. For these loansThese evaluations may use either a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, such as comparative sales, cost and/or income approach. A significant unobservable input in the income approach is the estimated capitalization rate for a given piece of collateral. At March 31, 2020, the2021 capitalization rates utilized to determine fair value of the underlying collateral averaged approximately 7.5%7.2%. Adjustments to comparable sales may be made by an appraiser to reflect local market conditions or other economic factors and may result in changes in the fair value of an asset over time. As such, the fair value of these impaired loans is considered level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. ImpairedCollateral-dependent loans measured at fair value total $9.1totaled $9.9 million with a specific reserve of $4.7$6.3 million at March 31, 2020,2021, compared to $5.1$8.8 million with a specific reserve of $2.9$7.7 million at December 31, 2019.2020.
For loans classified as levelLevel 3, changes included loan additions of $4.3$2.0 million offset by $0.3 million in paydowns and chargeoffs of $0.5 millioncharge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2020.2021.
Other real estate owned: When appraisals are used to determine fair value and the appraisals are based on a market approach, the fair value of other real estate owned (“OREO”) is classified as a levelLevel 2 input. When the fair value of OREO is based on appraisals which require significant adjustments to market-based valuation inputs or apply an income approach based on unobservable cash flows, the fair value of OREO is classified as levelLevel 3.
For OREO classified as levelLevel 3 at March 31, 2021, changes during the three months ended March 31, 2020, changesfirst quarter of 2021 included additions of foreclosed loans of $4.5$0.7 million, offset by sales of $3.3$1.2 million.
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer, which generally coincides with the Company’s monthly and/or quarter-endquarterly valuation process. There were no such transfers for loans and OREO classified as level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 20202021 and 2019.2020.

The short maturity of Seacoast’s assets and liabilities results in having a significant number of financial instruments whose fair value equals or closely approximates carrying value. Such financial instruments are reported in the following balance sheet captions: cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with other banks, FHLB borrowings and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, maturing within 30 days.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019:2020:
Held to maturityHeld-to-maturity debt securities: These debt securities are reported at fair value utilizing level 2 inputs. The estimated fair value of a security is determined based on market quotations when available or, if not available, by using quoted market prices for similar securities, pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses, using observable market data where available.
The Company reviews the prices supplied by independent pricing services, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. From time to time, the Company will validate, on a sample basis, prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from other brokers and third-party sources or derived using internal models.
Loans: Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, such as commercial or mortgage. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable-rate interest terms as well as performing and nonperforming categories. The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated life including prepayment considerations, using estimated market discount rates that reflect the risks inherent in the loan. The fair value approach considers market-driven variables including credit related factors and reflects an “exit price” as defined in ASC Topic 820.
Deposit liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for funding of similar remaining maturities.

Note M – Subsequent Events
During the first quarter of 2020, the global economy began experiencing a downturn related to the impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic.  On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. The CARES Act includes provisions for the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) offered through the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Loans originated under this program include principal and interest which may be forgiven provided the borrower uses the funds in a manner consistent with PPP guidelines. These loans have a contractual maturity of two years, a contractual rate of interest of 1%, and have an automatic six month payment deferral. In the month of April, 2020, Seacoast processed over 3,700 loans for its customers totaling over $530 million with an average loan size of $143,000. The SBA has outlined a fee structure based on loan size, whereby institutions will be paid 5% for loans of not more than $350,000, 3% for loans of more than $350,000 and less than $2 million, and 1% for loans of at least $2 million. These fees, net of the loan-specific costs, will be deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield over the expected life of the loans. There is significant uncertainty about how borrowers will seek and qualify for forgiveness. As a result, the expected life of these loans and the impact on loan yields to future periods cannot currently be determined with certainty, and estimates will be periodically updated as more information becomes available.
Seacoast has also provided borrowers affected by the pandemic with short-term loan payment deferrals. In March 2020, regulatory agencies issued an interagency statement on loan modifications, confirming that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered troubled debt restructurings. Through April 30, 2020, Seacoast has processed approximately 2,500 loan deferrals totaling $1.0 billion. None of these payment deferrals have been classified as TDRs.

First Quarter 2020
COVID-19 Pandemic
During the first quarter of 2020, the global economy began experiencing a downturn related to the impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic.  Such impacts have included significant volatility in the global stock markets, a 150-basis-point reduction in the target federal funds rate, the enactment of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act, including the Paycheck Protection Program administered by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"), and a variety of rulings from the Company’s banking regulators. The Company continues to actively monitor developments related to COVID-19 and its impact to its business, customers, employees, counterparties, vendors, and service providers.
Seacoast's priority in addressing the pandemic thus far has been to carefully adjust operations to protect the health and welfare of associates and customers while continuing to offer digital banking products and services that can be accessed anywhere. With over 90 years’ experience in an area prone to hurricanes, Seacoast has a robust and well tested business continuity program that has rapidly mobilized the Company's response to this crisis. The Company shifted to working remotely with minimal disruption. Branch operations shifted to remain open by drive-thru or lobby appointment only. The Company implemented enhanced cleaning protocols and operational teams are working remotely or in staggered shifts. As an SBA preferred lender, Seacoast is well-positioned to help business customers access the Paycheck Protection Program utilizing its fully digital origination program. Since April 3, 2020, the Company has processed over 3,700 applications for more than $530 million in loans.
Prior to the emergence of COVID-19, Seacoast was on track to achieve its announced Vision 2020 performance targets exiting 2020, which included an efficiency ratio below 50%, return on tangible assets above 1.30%, and a return on tangible common equity above 16%. Changes in the outlook for the economy as a result of COVID-19 will affect achievement of these targets, though it is difficult to predict to what extent. The Company intends to continue to carefully manage operating efficiency, maintain prudent credit oversight and a robust capital position. Although the business and economic impacts of COVID-19 present obvious challenges to Seacoast's operating environment, the Company is confident that its established conservative posture entering this uncertain period will serve it well.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictive measures taken by governments, businesses and individuals caused unprecedented uncertainty, volatility and disruption in financial markets and in governmental, commercial and consumer activity in the United States and globally, including the markets that we serve. As the restrictive measures have been eased during 2020 and into 2021, the U.S. economy has begun to recover and with the availability and distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine, we anticipate continued improvements in commercial and consumer activity and the U.S. economy.
While indications of recovery exist, we recognize that our business and consumer customers are experiencing varying degrees of financial distress, which is expected to continue into the second quarter of 2021, especially if new COVID-19 variant infections increase and new economic restrictions are mandated. Changing consumer behavior and the impact of government support programs including the PPP have contributed to higher customer deposit balances, which may adversely affect our net interest income and net interest margin. Commercial activity has improved, but has not returned to the levels existing prior to the outbreak of the pandemic, which may result in our customers’ inability to meet their loan obligations to us. In addition, the economic pressures and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in changes in consumer spending behaviors, which may negatively impact the demand for loans and other services we offer. Our borrowers include customers in industries such as hotel/lodging, restaurants and retail and commercial real estate, all of which have been convertedsignificantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We recognize that these industries may take longer to Seacoast branches, with depositsrecover as consumers may be hesitant to return to full social interaction or may change their spending habits on a more permanent basis as a result of $174 million and loans of $147 million at the time of acquisition.

We have taken deliberate actions to maintain our balance sheet strength to serve our clients and communities, including maintaining higher levels of liquidity and managing our assets and liabilities in order to maintain a strong capital position and support business growth and acquisition opportunities; however, future economic conditions are subject to significant uncertainty. Uncertainties associated with the pandemic include the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and any related variant infections, the availability and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, the impact to our customers, employees and vendors and the impact to the economy as a whole.

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income (on a fully taxable equivalent basis)1for the first quarter of 20202021 totaled $63.3$66.6 million, increasing $1.4decreasing $2.2 million, or 2%3%, during the quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2019,2020, and increasing $2.4$3.4 million, or 4%5%, compared to the first quarter of 2019.2020. The decrease quarter-over-quarter was due to lower accretion of purchase discount on acquired loans, fewer days in the quarter, lower loan balances excluding Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans and lower yields, partially offset by higher income from PPP loans and lower cost of deposits. Net interest margin (on a fully tax equivalent basis)1was 3.51% in the first quarter 2021, compared to 3.59% in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 3.93% in the first quarter 2020, compared to 3.84% in the fourth quarter 2019 and 4.02%of 2020. The effect of accretion of purchase discounts on acquired loans was an increase of 15 basis points in the first quarter of 2019. For2021, compared to an increase of 23 basis points in the fourth quarter 2020 and an increase of 27 basis points in the first quarter of 2020. The effect of interest and fees on PPP loans was an increase of 11 basis points in the first quarter of 2021, and a decrease of one basis point in the fourth quarter of 2020. Excluding these items, net interest margin declined to 3.25% from 3.37% in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 3.66% in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2020 is largely the result of significant growth in cash balances. The decrease from the first quarter of 2020 also reflects the lower interest rate environment.

The Federal Reserve reduced the overnight rates in the first quarter of 2020 by 150 basis points in response to the economic risks associated with COVID-19, in addition to the 75 basis points in rate reductions in the second half of 2019.

loan forgiveness. The increase from the prior year reflects the Company's participation in the PPP program and the acquisitions of FBPB and Freedom Bank.
Average loans as a percentage of average earning assets totaled 75% for the first quarter of 2021, 77% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 81% for the first quarter of 2020, 80% for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 79% for the first quarter of 2019. Loan production was affected in the first quarter of 2020 by the suspension of business activity across many industries in response to COVID-19. The Company intentionally slowed origination activity as the potential impact of the pandemic on general economic conditions became apparent. Seacoast began accepting applications from customers on Friday, April 3 for the Paycheck Protection Program established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"). Seacoast has processed over 3,700 loans for its customers under this program, totaling over $530 million with an average loan size of $143,000. These loans mature in two years with an automatic six month payment deferral. Customers can apply for forgiveness providing the proceeds are used for qualifying expenses. There is significant uncertainty about the expected life of these loans, including how many borrowers will seek and qualify for forgiveness. As a result, the impact on loan yields to future periods cannot currently be determined with certainty, and estimates will be periodically updated as more information becomes available.2020.

Therefore, at March 31, 2020,2021, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded.

The Company has developed prudent guardrails to manage loan types that are most impacted by stressed market conditions in order to minimize credit loss volatility in the future.risk concentration to capital. Outstanding balances for commercial and CRE loan relationships greater than $10 million totaled $703.9$798.0 million and represented 13%14% of the total portfolio at March 31, 20202021 compared to $680.2$753.7 million, or 13%, at year-end 2019.2020.
The Company’s ten largest commercial and commercial real estate funded and unfunded loan relationships at March 31, 2021 aggregated to $251.3 million, of which $189.1 million was funded compared to $254.3 million at December 31, 2020, of which $188.0 million was funded. The Company had 144 commercial and commercial real estate relationships in excess of $5 million totaling $1.4 billion, of which $1.2 billion was funded at March 31, 2021 compared to 135 relationships totaling $1.3 billion at December 31, 2020, of which $1.2 billion was funded.
Concentrations in total construction and land development loans and total CRE loans are maintained well below regulatory limits. Construction and land development and CRE loan concentrations as a percentage of subsidiary bank total risk based capital declined to 35%23% and 193%168%, respectively, at March 31, 2020,2021, compared to 40%26% and 204%169%, respectively, at December 31, 2019.2020. Regulatory guidance suggests limits of 100% and 300%, respectively. On a consolidated basis, construction and land development and commercial real estate loans represent 32%21% and 181%155%, respectively, of total consolidated risk based capital. To determine these ratios, the Company defines CRE in accordance with the guidance on “Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate Lending” (the “Guidance”) issued by the federal bank regulatory agencies in 2006 (and reinforced in 2015), which defines CRE loans as exposures secured by land development and construction, including 1-4 family residential construction, multi-family property, and non-farm nonresidential property where the primary or a significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property (i.e., loans for which 50 percent or more of the source of repayment comes from third party, non-affiliated, rental income) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property. Loans to real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and unsecured loans to developers that closely correlate to the inherent risks in CRE markets would also be considered CRE loans under the Guidance. Loans on owner-occupied CRE are generally excluded.In addition, the Company is subject to a geographic concentration of credit because it primarily operates in Florida.
Nonperforming Loans, Troubled Debt Restructurings, Other Real Estate Owned, and Credit Quality
Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) at March 31, 20202021 totaled $40.2$50.9 million, and were comprised of $17.9$35.3 million of nonaccrual portfolio loans, $7.7$10.8 million of nonaccrual purchased loans, $10.7 million of non-acquired other real estate owned (“OREO”), $0.4and $4.7 million of acquired OREObranches and $3.6 million of branchesother properties used in bank operations taken out of service. Compared to December 31, 2019,2020, nonaccrual purchased loans increased $1.7decreased $0.8 million, spread across several loans, while acquired OREO remained flat.primarily the result of paydowns. The increase in non-acquired OREO of $5.5 million from December 31, 2019 includes additions of a single multifamily property for $4.5 million and a single residential property for $1.1 million offset by sales of $0.1 million. The decrease in OREO for bank branches of $3.2$2.1 million reflects the addition of three branch properties totaling $3.3 million, offset by the sale of a single branch property. Overall, NPAs increased $0.9$2.0 million, or 2%4%, from $39.3$48.9 million recorded as of December 31, 2019.2020. At March 31, 2020,2021, approximately 65%82% of nonaccrual loans were secured with real estate. See the tables below for details about nonaccrual loans. At March 31, 2020,2021, nonaccrual loans were written down by approximately $3.1$7.5 million, or 6%,11% of the original loan balance (including specific impairment reserves).

The Company’s asset mitigation staff handles all foreclosure actions together with outside legal counsel.
The Company pursues loan restructurings in selectedselect cases where it expects to realize better values than may be expected through traditional collection activities. The Company has worked with retail mortgage customers, when possible, to achieve lower payment structures in an effort to avoid foreclosure. Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs"(“TDRs”) have been a part of the Company’s loss mitigation activities and can include rate reductions, payment extensions and principal deferrals. Company policy requires TDRs that are classified as nonaccrual loans after restructuring remain on nonaccrual until performance can be verified, which usually requires six months of performance under the restructured loan terms. Accruing restructured loansTDRs totaled $10.8$4.1 million at March 31, 20202021 compared to $11.1$4.2 million at December 31, 2019.2020. Accruing TDRs are excluded from the nonperforming asset ratios.
InBeginning in March 2020, regulatory agencies issued an interagency statement on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID–19. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short–term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID–19economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short–term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant and were made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of (i) December 31, 2020 or (ii) 60 days after the end of the COVID–19 national emergency. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. In March 2020, the Company processedhas offered short-term payment deferrals on loans totaling approximately $512to affected borrowers. As of March 31, 2021, pandemic-related deferrals totaled $28.4 million and are not considered TDRs. If economic conditions deteriorate further, these borrowers may be unable to borrowers who were

Loan modifications are not reported in calendar years after modification if the loans were modified at an interest rate equal to the yields of new loan originations with comparable risk and the loans are performing based on the terms of the restructuring agreements. There were three defaults totaling $1.4 million of loans to a single borrower modified within the twelve months preceding March 31, 2020. A restructured loan is considered in default when it becomes 90 days or more past due under the modified terms, has been transferred to nonaccrual status, has been charged off or has been transferred to OREO.
In accordance with regulatory reporting requirements, loans are placed on nonaccrual following the Retail Classification of Loan interagency guidance. TypicallyThe accrual of interest is generally discontinued on loans, except consumer loans, that become 90 days past due as to principal or moreinterest unless collection of both principal and interest is assured by way of collateralization, guarantees or other security. Consumer loans that become 120 days past due are reviewed for impairment, and if deemed impaired, are placed on nonaccrual. Once impaired, the current fair market value of the collateral is assessed and a specific reserve and/or charge-off taken. Quarterly thereafter, thegenerally charged off.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASC Topic 326 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The new guidance replaced the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposure such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees and other similar instruments.
Management estimates the allowance using relevant available information, from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit losses provide the basis for estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific

risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, loan to value ratios, borrower credit characteristics, loan seasoning or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, occupancy rates, and other macroeconomic metrics.
Upon adoptionDuring the first quarter of 2021, the new model,Company recorded a reversal of provision of $5.7 million reflecting improvement in the initial adjustmenteconomic forecast. No allowance has been assigned to PPP loans, which are guaranteed by the allowanceU.S. government. Net charge-offs for credit losses was an increasethe first quarter of $21.22021 were $0.4 million, bringingor 0.03% of average loans and, for the four most recent quarters, averaged 0.12% of outstanding loans. Excluding PPP loans, the ratio of allowance to total loans decreased to 1.71% at March 31, 2021 from 0.68%1.79% at December 31, 2019 to 1.08% at January 1, 2020. The increase was attributed to the new requirement to estimate losses over the full remaining expected life of the loans, and to the impact of the new guidance on the Company's acquired loan portfolio. The economic forecast scenario as of January 1, 2020 projected a stable macroeconomic environment over the three year forecast period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liability, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure the ability to fund operations cost effectively and to meet current and future potential obligations such as loan commitments and unexpected deposit outflows.
Funding sources include primarily customer-based deposits, collateral-backed borrowings, brokered deposits, cash flows from operations, cash flows from the loan and investment portfolios and asset sales, primarily secondary marketing for residential real estate mortgages and marine loans. Cash flows from operations are a significant component of liquidity risk management and the Company considers both deposit maturities and the scheduled cash flows from loan and investment maturities and payments when managing risk.
Deposits are a primary source of liquidity. The stability of this funding source is affected by numerous factors, including returns available to customers on alternative investments, the quality of customer service levels, perception of safety and competitive forces. The Company routinely uses debt securities and loans as collateral for secured borrowings. In the event of severe market

Contractual maturities for assets and liabilities are reviewed to meet current and expected future liquidity requirements. Sources of liquidity both anticipated and unanticipated, are maintained through a portfolio of high quality marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans, debt securities available-for-sale and interest-bearing deposits. The Company is also able to provide short term financing of its activities by selling, under an agreement to repurchase, United States Treasury and Government agency debt securities not pledged to secure public deposits or trust funds.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Company may engage in a variety of financial transactions that, under generally accepted accounting principles, either are not recorded on the balance sheet or are recorded on the balance sheet in amounts that differ from the full contract or notional amounts. These transactions involve varying elements of market, credit and liquidity risk.
Lending commitments include unfunded loan commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit. For loan commitments, the contractual amount of a commitment represents the maximum potential credit risk that could result if the entire commitment had been funded, the borrower had not performed according to the terms of the contract, and no collateral had been provided. A large majority of loan commitments and standby letters of credit expire without being funded, and accordingly, total contractual amounts are not representative of actual future credit exposure or liquidity requirements. Loan commitments and letters of credit expose the Company to credit risk in the event that the customer draws on the commitment and subsequently fails to perform under the terms of the lending agreement. During the current economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, borrowers may be more dependent upon lending commitments than they have been in the past, and more likely to draw on the commitments.
For commercial customers, loan commitments generally take the form of revolving credit arrangements. For retail customers, loan commitments generally are lines of credit secured by residential property. These instruments are not recorded on the balance sheet until funds are advanced under the commitment. Loan commitments were $1.1$1.6 billion at March 31, 20202021 and $1.0$1.5 billion at December 31, 2019.2020.

The Company and Seacoast Bank are subject to various general regulatory policies and requirements relating to the payment of dividends, including requirements to maintain adequate capital above regulatory minimums. The appropriate federal bank regulatory authority may prohibit the payment of dividends where it has determined that the payment of dividends would be an unsafe or unsound practice. The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from Seacoast Bank and its other subsidiaries, and the Company’s primary source of cash and liquidity, other than securities offerings and borrowings, is dividends from its bank subsidiary. Without Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) approval, Seacoast Bank can pay $149.3$165.5 million of dividends to the Company.
The OCC and the Federal Reserve have policies that encourage banks and bank holding companies to pay dividends from current earnings, and have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by national banks and bank holding companies, respectively, if such payment may be deemed to constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. If, in the particular circumstances, either of these federal regulators determined that the payment of dividends would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice, either the OCC or the Federal Reserve may, among other things, issue a cease and desist order prohibiting the payment of dividends by Seacoast Bank or us, respectively. The board of directors of a bank holding company must consider different factors to ensure that its dividend level, if any, is prudent relative to the organization’s financial position and is not based on overly optimistic earnings

scenarios such as any potential events that may occur before the payment date that could affect its ability to pay, while still maintaining a strong financial position. As a general matter, the Federal Reserve has indicated that the board of directors of a bank holding company, such as Seacoast, should consult with the Federal Reserve and eliminate, defer, or significantly reduce the bank holding company’s dividends if: (i) its net income available to shareholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividends; (ii) its prospective rate of earnings retention is not consistent with its capital needs and overall current and prospective financial condition; or (iii) it will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital adequacy ratios.
The Company has seven wholly owned trust subsidiaries that have issued trust preferred stock. Trust preferred securities from acquisitions were recorded at fair value when acquired. All trust preferred securities are guaranteed by the Company on a junior subordinated basis.

to be included under Basel III capital guidelines, with limitations, and net of goodwill and intangibles. The Company believes that its trust preferred securities qualify under these revised regulatory capital rules and believes that it can treat all $71.2$71.4 million of trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital. For regulatory purposes, the trust preferred securities are added to the Company’s tangible common shareholders’ equity to calculate Tier 1 capital.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, (“GAAP”), including prevailing practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in the application of certain of its accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions. The Company has established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. These estimates and assumptions, which may materially affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and changes in this information over time and the use of revised estimates and assumptions could materially affect amounts reported in subsequent financial statements. Management believes the most critical accounting estimates and assumptions that involve the most difficult, subjective and complex assessments are: 
the allowance and the provision for credit losses on loans;
acquisition accounting and purchased loans;
intangible assets and impairment testing;
other fair value adjustments;
credit losses on AFSimpairment of debt securities, and;
contingent liabilities.
The following is a discussion of the critical accounting policies intended to facilitate a reader’s understanding of the judgments, estimates and assumptions underlying these accounting policies and the possible or likely events or uncertainties known to the Company that could have a material effect on reported financial information. For more information regarding management’s judgments relating to significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements, see “Note A-Significant Accounting Policies” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Allowance and Provision for Credit Losses on Loans– Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASC Topic 326 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology.
For loans, management estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information, from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit losses provide the basis for estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, loan to value ratios, borrower credit characteristics, loan seasoning or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, occupancy rates, and other macroeconomic metrics.
The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has developed an allowance model based on an analysis of probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD") to determine an expected loss by loan segment. PD'sPDs and LGD'sLGDs are developed by analyzing the average historical loss migration of loans to default.

The allowance estimation process also applies an economic forecast scenario over a three year forecast period. The forecast may utilize one scenario or a composite of scenarios based on management's judgment and expectations around the current and future macroeconomic outlook. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. For portfolio segments with a weighted average life longer than three years, the Company reverts to longer term historical loss experience, adjusted for prepayments, to estimate losses over the remaining life of the loans within each segment.
Adjustments may be made to baseline reserves for some of the loan pools based on an assessment of internal and external influences on credit quality not fully reflected in the quantitative components of the allowance model. These influences may include elements such as changes in concentration, macroeconomic conditions, recent observable asset quality trends, staff turnover, regional market conditions, employment levels and loan growth. Based upon management's assessments of these factors, the Company may apply qualitative adjustments to the allowance.
56

Table of Contents

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation. When management determines that foreclosure is probable, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.
The contractual term of a loan excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modification unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a troubled debt restructuring will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and not unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

A loan for which which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). The allowance for credit losses on a TDRtroubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) is measured using the same method as all other loans held for investment, except when the value of a concession cannot be measured using a method other than the discounted cash flow method. When the value of a concession is measured using the discounted cash flow method, the allowance for credit losses is determining by discounting the expected future cash flows at the original interest rate of the loan.
It is the Company's practice to ensure that the charge-off policy meets or exceeds regulatory minimums.requirements. Losses on unsecured consumer loans are recognized at 90 days past due, compared to the regulatory loss criteria of 120 days. In compliance with Federal Financial Institution Examination Council guidelines, secured consumer loans, including residential real estate, are typically charged-offcharged off or charged down between 120 and 180 days past due, depending on the collateral type. Commercial loans and real estate loans are typically placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is past due for 90 days or more, unless the loan is both secured by collateral having realizable value sufficient to discharge the debt in-full and the loan is in process of collection. Loans provided with short-term payment deferrals under the CARES Act or interagency guidance are not considered past due if in compliance with the terms of their deferral. Secured loans may be charged-downcharged down to the estimated value of the collateral with previously accrued unpaid interest reversed against interest income. Subsequent charge-offs may be required as a result of changes in the market value of collateral or other repayment prospects. Initial charge-off amounts are based on valuation estimates derived from appraisals, broker price opinions, or other market information. Generally, new appraisals are not received until the foreclosure process is completed; however, collateral values are evaluated periodically based on market information and incremental charge-offs are recorded if it is determined that collateral values have declined from their initial estimates.
Note F to the financial statements (titled “Allowance for Credit Losses”) summarizes the Company’s allocation of the allowance for credit losses on loans by loan segment and provides detail regarding charge-offs and recoveries for each loan segment and the composition of the loan portfolio at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020.
Acquisition Accounting and Purchased Loans – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company accounts for acquisitions under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting. All identifiable assets acquired, including loans, are recorded at fair value. All loans acquired are recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The fair value estimates associated with the loans include estimates related to expected prepayments and the amount and timing of expected principal, interest and other cash flows. Loans are identified as purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) when they have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. An allowance for expected credit losses on PCD loans is recorded at the date of acquisition through an adjustment to the loans’ amortized cost basis. In contrast, expected credit losses on loans not considered PCD are recognized in net income at the date of acquisition.
Fair value estimates for acquired assets and assumed liabilities are based on the information available, and are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information relative to closing date fair values becomes available.

Intangible Assets and Impairment Testing – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Intangible assets consist of goodwill, core deposit intangibles and mortgage servicing rights. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. The core deposit intangible represents the excess intangible value of acquired deposit customer relationships. Core deposit intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis, and are evaluated for indications of potential impairment at least annually. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company performed an annual impairment test of goodwill, as required by ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, in the fourth quarter of 2019. Seacoast conducted the test internally, documenting the impairment test results,2020, and concluded that no impairment occurred.existed.
In connection withFair value estimates for acquired assets and assumed liabilities are based on the emergence of COVID-19 as a global pandemic duringinformation available, and are subject to change for up to one year after the 2020 first quarter, financial markets reported significant declines and subsequent volatility, as did the Company's share price. As a result, management performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether a triggering event had occurred that would indicate goodwill impairment at March 31, 2020. Having assessed the totality of events and circumstances at the measurementclosing date management determined that the short-lived decline in share price was not a triggering event and that a full goodwill test was not warranted. In the event of a sustained decline in share price or further deterioration in the macroeconomic outlook, continued assessments of the Company's goodwill balance will likely be required in future periods. Any impairment charge would not affect the Company’s regulatory capital ratios, tangible common equity ratio or liquidity position.acquisition as additional information relative to closing date fair values becomes available.

Other Fair Value Measurements – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
“As Is” values are used to measureThe fair market value on impairedof collateral-dependent loans, OREO and repossessed assets. All impaired loans, OREO and repossessed assets is typically based on current appraisals, which are reviewed quarterly to determine if fair value adjustments are necessary based on known changes in the market and/or the project assumptions. When necessary, the “As Is” appraised value may be adjusted based on more recent appraisal assumptions received by the Company on other similar properties, the tax assessed market value, comparative sales and/or an internal valuation. Collateral dependent impairedCollateral-dependent loans are loans where repayment is solely dependent on the liquidation of the collateral or operation of the collateral for repayment. If an updated assessment is deemed necessary and an internal valuation cannot be made, an external “As Is” appraisal
The Company also holds 11,330 shares of Visa Class B stock which, following resolution of Visa’s litigation, will be requested. Upon receiptconverted to Visa Class A shares. Under the current conversion rate that became effective September 27, 2019, the Company expects to receive 1.6228 shares of the “As Is” appraisalClass A stock for each share of Class B stock, for a charge-offtotal of 18,386 shares of Visa Class A stock. The Company's ownership is recognized for the difference between the loan amount and its current fair market value.
The fair value of the available-for-sale portfolio at March 31, 2020 was greater than historical amortized cost, producing net unrealized gains of $6.3 million that have been includedrelated to prior ownership in other comprehensive incomeVisa’s network while Visa operated as a componentcooperative. This ownership is recorded on the Company's financial records at a zero basis.
Impairment of shareholders’ equity (net of taxes). The Company made no change to the valuation techniques used to determine the fair values of securities during 2020 and 2019. The fair value of each security available-for-sale was obtained from independent pricing sources utilized by many financial institutions or from dealer quotes. The fair value of many state and municipal securities are not readily available through market sources, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market price or prices of similar instruments. Generally, the Company obtains one price for each security. However, actual values can only be determined in an arms-length transaction between a willing buyer and seller that can, and often do, vary from these reported values. Furthermore, significant changes in recorded values due to changes in actual and perceived economic conditions can occur rapidly, producing greater unrealized losses or gains in the available-for-sale portfolio.
Credit Losses on AFS Debt Securities – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
As part of the adoption of ASC Topic 326, the Company replaced the other than temporary impairment model with an approach that requiresExpected credit losses to be presentedon both held-to-maturity (“HTM”) and available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities are recognized through a valuation allowance. For HTM securities, management estimates expected credit losses over the remaining expected life and recognizes this estimate as an allowance ratherfor credit losses. An AFS security is considered impaired if the fair value is less than amortized cost basis. For AFS securities, if any portion of the decline in fair value is related to credit, the amount of allowance is determined as the portion related to credit, limited to the difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value of the security. If the fair value of the security increases in subsequent periods, or changes in factors used within the credit loss assessment result in a change in the estimated credit loss, the Company would reflect the change by decreasing the allowance. If the Company has the intent to sell or believes it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell an impaired AFS security before recovery of the amortized cost basis, the credit loss is recorded as a direct write-down when management doesof the amortized cost basis. Declines in the fair value of AFS securities that are not intend to sell or believes they will not be required to sell before recovery.considered credit related are recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Seacoast analyzes AFS debt securities quarterly for credit losses. The analysis is performed on an individual security basis for all securities where fair value has declined below amortized cost. Fair value is based upon pricing obtained from third party pricing services. Based on internal review procedures and the fair values provided by the pricing services, the Company believes that the fair values provided by the pricing services are consistent with the principles of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. However, on occasion pricing provided by the pricing services may not be consistent with other observed prices in the market for similar securities. Using observable market factors, including interest rate and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities and default rates, the Company may at times validate the observed prices using a discounted cash flow model and using the observed prices for similar securities to determine the fair value of its securities.
The Company utilizes both quantitative and qualitative assessments to determine if a security has a credit loss. Quantitative assessments are based on a discounted cash flow method. Qualitative assessments consider a range of factors including: percent decline in fair value, rating downgrades, subordination, duration, amortized loan-to-value, and the ability of the issuers to pay all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms.

For AFS debt securities where a credit loss has been identified, the Company records this loss through an allowance for credit losses. This allowance is limited to the amount that the security's amortized cost exceeds its fair value. If the fair value of the security increases in subsequent periods or changes in factors used within the credit loss assessments result in a change in the estimated credit loss, the Company would reflect the change by decreasing the allowance for credit losses.
Contingent Liabilities – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Seacoast is subject to contingent liabilities, including judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings, and tax and other claims arising from the conduct of the Company's business activities. These proceedings include actions brought against the Company and/or its subsidiaries with respect to transactions in which the Company and/or its subsidiaries acted as a lender, a financial adviser, a broker or acted in a related activity. Accruals are established for legal and other claims when it becomes probable that the Company will incur an expense and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Company management, together with attorneys, consultants and other professionals, assesses the probability and estimated amounts involved in a contingency. Throughout the life of a contingency, the Company or its advisers may learn of additional information that can affect the assessments about probability or about the estimates of amounts involved. Changes in these assessments can lead to changes in recorded reserves. In addition, the actual costs of resolving these claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts reserved for the claims. At March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Company had no significant accruals for contingent liabilities and had no known pending matters that could potentially be significant.

Interest Rate Sensitivity
Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. This risk is managed using simulation modeling to calculate the most likely interest rate risk utilizing estimated loan and deposit growth. The objective is to optimize the Company’s financial position, liquidity, and net interest income while limiting their volatility.
Senior management regularly reviews the overall interest rate risk position and evaluates strategies to manage the risk. The Company's Asset and Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") uses simulation analysis to monitor changes in net interest income due to changes in market interest rates. The simulation of rising, declining and flat interest rate scenarios allows management to monitor and adjust interest rate sensitivity to minimize the impact of market interest rate swings. The analysis of the impact on net interest income over a twelve monthtwelve-month period is subjected to instantaneous changes in market rates of 100 basis point increases up to 200 basis points of change on net interest income and is monitored on a quarterly basis.These simulations do not include the impact of accretion from purchased loans.basis.
The following table presents the ALCO simulation model's projected impact of a change in interest rates on the projected baseline net interest income for the 12 and 24 month periods beginning on JanuaryApril 1, 2020,2021, holding all other changes in the balance sheet static. This change in interest rates assumes parallel shifts in the yield curve and does not take into account changes in the slope of the yield curve.

The Company had a positive gap position based on contractual and prepayment assumptions for the next 12 months, with a positive cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap as a percentage of total earning assets of 17.9%30.5% at March 31, 2020.2021. This result includes assumptions for core deposit re-pricing validated for the Company by an independent third party consulting group.
The computations of interest rate risk do not necessarily include certain actions management may undertake to manage this risk in response to changes in interest rates. Derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, options, caps, floors, futures and forward contracts may be utilized as components of the Company’s risk management profile.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money, over time, due to inflation.
Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the general level of inflation. However, inflation affects financial institutions by increasing their cost of goods and services purchased, as well as the cost of salaries and benefits, occupancy expense, and similar items. Inflation and related increases in interest rates generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings, and shareholders’ equity. Mortgage originations and re-financings tend to slow as interest rates increase, and higher interest rates likely will reduce the Company’s earnings from such activities and the income from the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See Management’s discussion and analysis “Interest Rate Sensitivity.”
Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, and other relevant market rates or prices.
Interest rate risk, defined as the exposure of net interest income and Economic Value of Equity, or “EVE,” to adverse movements in interest rates, is the Company’s primary market risk, and mainly arises from the structure of the balance sheet (non-trading activities). The Company is also exposed to market risk in its investing activities. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee, or “ALCO,” meets regularly and is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. The policies established by the ALCO are reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The primary goal of interest rate risk management is to control exposure to interest rate risk, within policy limits approved by the Board. These limits reflect the Company’s tolerance for interest rate risk over short-term and long-term horizons.
The Company also performs valuation analyses, which are used for evaluating levels of risk present in the balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the net interest income simulation analyses. Whereas net interest income simulation highlights exposures over a relatively short time horizon, valuation analysis incorporates all cash flows over the estimated remaining life of all balance sheet positions. The valuation of the balance sheet, at a point in time, is defined as the discounted present value of asset cash flows minus the discounted value of liability cash flows, the net result of which is the EVE. The sensitivity of EVE to changes in the level of interest rates is a measure of the longer-term re-pricing risks and options risks embedded in the balance sheet. In contrast to the net interest income simulation, which assumes interest rates will change over a period of time, EVE uses instantaneous changes in rates.
As with the net interest income simulation model, assumptions about the timing and variability of balance sheet cash flows are critical in the EVE analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving prepayments and the expected changes in balances and pricing of the indeterminate life deposit portfolios. Core deposits are a more significant funding source for the Company, making the lives attached to core deposits more important to the accuracy of EVE modeling. The Company periodically reassesses its assumptions regarding the indeterminate lives of core deposits utilizing an independent third party resource to assist. With lower interest rates over a prolonged period, the average lives of core deposits have trended higher and favorably impacted model estimates of EVE for higher rates.
The following table presents the projected impact of a change in interest rates on the balance sheet. This change in interest rates assumes parallel shifts in the yield curve and does not take into account changes in the slope of the yield curve.

Current—%
-1.00%(17.3%)
While an instantaneous and severe shift in interest rates is used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure under an extremely adverse scenario, a gradual shift in interest rates would have a much more modest impact. Since EVE measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon, i.e., the next fiscal year. Further, EVE does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, change in yield curve relationships, and changing product spreads that could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management, with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 20202021 and concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
The Company implemented new processes and activities in adopting new accounting guidance forDuring the allowance for credit losses, and while the processes and activities underlying the estimation process have changed,quarter ended March 31, 2021, there have been no changes to the Company’sin internal control over financial reporting that have occurred during the first quarter of 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries, because of the nature of their business, are at all times subject to numerous legal actions, threatened or filed. Management presently believes that none of the legal proceedings to which it is a party are likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, or operating results or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should consider the factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and prospective results. The risks described in this report, in our Form 10-K or our other SEC filings are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. The following risk factorsThere have been included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in responseno material changes with respect to the global market disruptions that have resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our business and financial results, and the ultimate impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic is creating extensive disruptions to the global economy and to the lives of individuals throughout the world. Governments, businesses, and the public are taking unprecedented actions to contain the spread of COVID-19 and to mitigate its effects, including quarantines, travel bans, shelter-in-place orders, closures of businesses and schools, fiscal stimulus, and legislation designed to deliver monetary aid and other relief. While the scope, duration, and full effects of COVID-19 are rapidly evolving and not fully known, the pandemic and related efforts to contain it have disrupted global economic activity, adversely affected the functioning of financial markets, impacted interest rates, increased economic and market uncertainty, and disrupted trade and supply chains. If these effects continue for a prolonged period or result in sustained economic stress, recession or depression, many of the risk factors identified in the “Risk Factors” section includeddisclosed in our Annual Report on Formform 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 could be exacerbated and such effects could have a material adverse impact on us in a number of ways related to credit, collateral, customer demand, funding, operations, interest rate risk, and human capital, as described in more detail below.2020.
Credit Risk. Our risks of timely loan repayment and the value of collateral supporting the loans are affected by the strength of our borrowers' businesses. Concern about the spread of COVID-19 has caused and is likely to continue to cause business shutdowns, limitations on commercial activity and financial transactions, labor shortages, supply chain interruptions, increased unemployment and commercial property vacancies, reduced profitability and ability for property owners to make mortgage payments, and overall economic and financial market instability, all of which may cause our customers to be unable to make scheduled loan payments.

59

Table of Contents


If the effects of COVID-19 result in widespread and sustained repayment shortfalls on loans in our portfolio, we could incur significant delinquencies, foreclosures and credit losses, particularly if the available collateral is insufficient to cover our exposure. The future effects of COVID-19 on economic activity could negatively affect the collateral values associated with our existing loans, the ability to liquidate the real estate collateral securing our residential and commercial real estate loans, our ability to maintain loan origination volume and to obtain additional financing, the future demand for or profitability of our lending and services, and the financial condition and credit risk of our customers. Further, in the event of delinquencies, regulatory changes and policies designed to protect borrowers may slow or prevent us from making our business decisions or may result in a delay in our taking certain remediation actions, such as foreclosure. In addition, we have unfunded commitments to extend credit to customers. During a challenging economic environment like now, our customers are more dependent on our credit commitments and increased borrowings under these commitments could adversely impact our liquidity. Furthermore, in an effort to support our communities during the pandemic, we are participating in the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the CARES Act whereby loans to small businesses are made, and those loans are subject to regulatory requirements that require forbearance of loan payments for a specified time, or that limit our ability to pursue all available remedies in the event of a loan default. If the borrower under the PPP loan fails to qualify for loan forgiveness, we are at heightened risk of holding these loans at unfavorable interest rates as compared to loans to customers that we would have otherwise extended credit.
Strategic Risk. Our financial condition and results of operations may be affected by a variety of external factors that may affect the price or marketability of our products and services, changes in interest rates that may increase our funding costs, reduced demand for our financial products due to economic conditions and the various response of governmental and nongovernmental authorities. In recent weeks, the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty and has led to severe disruptions and volatility in the global capital markets. Furthermore, many of the governmental actions in response to the pandemic have been directed toward curtailing household and business activity to contain COVID-19. These actions have been rapidly changing. For example, in many of our markets, local governments have acted to temporarily close or restrict the operations of most businesses. The future effects of COVID-19 on economic activity could negatively affect the future banking products we provide, including a decline in loan originations.
Operational Risk. Current and future restrictions on our workforce’s access to our facilities could limit our ability to meet customer servicing expectations and have a material adverse effect on our operations. We rely on business processes and branch activity that largely depend on people and technology, including access to information technology systems as well as information, applications, payment systems and other services provided by third parties. In response to COVID-19, we have modified our business practices with a portion of our employees working remotely from their homes to have our operations uninterrupted as much as possible. Further, technology in employees’ homes may not be as robust as in our offices and could cause the networks, information systems, applications, and other tools available to employees to be more limited or less reliable than in our offices. The continuation of these work-from-home measures also introduces additional operational risk, including increased cybersecurity risk. These cyber risks include greater phishing, malware, and other cybersecurity attacks, vulnerability to disruptions of our information technology infrastructure and telecommunications systems for remote operations, increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of confidential information, limited ability to restore the systems in the event of a systems failure or interruption, greater risk of a security breach resulting in destruction or misuse of valuable information, and potential impairment of our ability to perform critical functions, including wiring funds, all of which could expose us to risks of data or financial loss, litigation and liability and could seriously disrupt our operations and the operations of any impacted customers.
Moreover, we rely on many third parties in our business operations, including the appraisers of real property collateral, vendors that supply essential services such as loan servicers, providers of financial information, systems and analytical tools and providers of electronic payment and settlement systems, and local and federal government agencies, offices, and courthouses. In light of the developing measures responding to the pandemic, many of these entities may limit the availability and access of their services. For example, loan origination could be delayed due to the limited availability of real estate appraisers for the collateral. Loan closings could be delayed related to reductions in available staff in recording offices or the closing of courthouses in certain counties, which slows the process for title work, mortgage and UCC filings in those counties. If the third-party service providers continue to have limited capacities for a prolonged period or if additional limitations or potential disruptions in these services materialize, it may negatively affect our operations.
Interest Rate Risk. Our net interest income, lending activities, deposits and profitability are and are likely to continue to be negatively affected by volatility in interest rates caused by uncertainties stemming from COVID-19. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to a range from 0 to 0.25 percent, citing concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on markets and stress in the energy sector. A prolonged period of extremely volatile and unstable market conditions would likely increase our funding costs and negatively affect market risk mitigation strategies. Higher income volatility from changes in interest rates and spreads to benchmark indices will likely cause a loss of future net interest income and a decrease in current fair market values of our assets. Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets

and liabilities and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our net income, operating results, or financial condition.
Because there have been no comparable recent global pandemics that resulted in similar global impact, we do not yet know the full extent of COVID-19’s effects on our business, operations, or the global economy as a whole. Any future development will be highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, the effectiveness of our work from home arrangements, third party providers’ ability to support our operation, and any actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic. The uncertain future development of this crisis could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, operating results, financial condition, liquidity or capital levels.
We are subject to lending concentration risk.
Our loan portfolio contains several industry and collateral concentrations including, but not limited to, commercial and residential real estate. Due to the exposure in these concentrations, disruptions in markets, economic conditions, including those resulting from the global response to COVID-19, changes in laws or regulations or other events could cause a significant impact on the ability of borrowers to repay and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
A substantial portion of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate. In weak economies, or in areas where real estate market conditions are distressed, we may experience a higher than normal level of nonperforming real estate loans. The collateral value of the portfolio and the revenue stream from those loans could come under stress, and additional provisions for the allowance for credit losses could be necessitated. Our ability to dispose of foreclosed real estate at prices at or above the respective carrying values could also be impaired, causing additional losses.
