NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company adopted and updated its accounting policies for the following provides a brief description of recently issued accounting pronouncementsstandards that have yetbeen applied to be adopted by the Company:

ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02").The FASB issuedASU 2022-02 to provide new guidance on TDRs and write-offs for entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13. ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2022-02 on itsCompany's interim consolidated financial statements and does not anticipate a material impact upon adoption.for the three months ended March 31, 2023:

ASU No. 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method ("ASU 2022-01"). The FASB issued ASU 2022-01 to amend ASU 2017-12, which was adopted by the Company in 2018. This amendment renames the "last-of-layer" method to the "portfolio layer" method, permits non-repayable financial assets to be included in a closed portfolio hedged using the portfolio layer method, and provides additional guidance for entities that apply the portfolio layer method of hedge accounting in accordance with Topic 815. The amendmentCompany adopted ASU 2022-01, as amended, effective January 1, 2023 and leveraged the "portfolio layer" method to enter into interest rate swaps to hedge fixed-rate residential mortgages during the three months ended March 31, 2023. There was no impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption. Refer to Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for further details.

ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02").The FASB issuedASU 2022-02 to provide new guidance on TDRs and charge-offs for entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023 on a prospective basis, and upon adoption there was no impact to the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting and disclosure requirements for TDRs, including the requirement to measure the allowance using a discounted cash flow ("DCF") methodology. Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company no longer establishes a specific reserve for newly modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Instead, these modifications are included in their respective segments, and the ACL is calculated utilizing models that consider the borrowers' probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default.

ASU 2022-02 also requires disclosure of modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty if the modification involves principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, a term extension, or a combination of any of these types of modifications. Additionally, ASU 2022-02 requires the disclosure of current period gross charge-offs by year of loss origination (vintage) which are required to be applied prospectively as of January 1, 2023, the Company's date of adoption. Refer to Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements for further details.

The following provides a brief description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that have yet to be adopted by the Company:

ASU No. 2023-02, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method ("ASU 2023-02"). The FASB issued ASU 2023-02 to permit reporting entities to elect to account for tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the income tax credits or other tax benefits received. ASU 2023-02 is effective for fiscal yearsinterim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The2023.

The ACL on loans increased $3.3 million$200,000 during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, to $36.5$37.1 million. The net increase was driven by: (1) aan overall softening overall economy and the increasing likelihood of a recession and (2) 13%2% loan growth during this period, which was primarily driven by residential real estate commercial and commercial real estate - non-owner-occupied, that offset (3) the release of $5.0 million of reserves established for certain hospitality-related loans within the commercial real estate-non-owner occupied loan segment in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the identified elevated credit risk the pandemic presented to these loans at that time. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the ACL on loans for these previously modified hospitality-related loans was $0 and $5.0 million, respectively.non-owner-occupied.

Credit Concentrations

The Company focuses on maintaining a well-balanced and diversified loan portfolio. Despite such efforts, it is recognized that credit concentrations may occasionally emerge as a result of economic conditions, changes in local demand, natural loan growth and runoff. To identify credit concentrations effectively, all commercial and commercial real estate loans are assigned Standard Industrial Classification codes, North American Industry Classification System codes, and state and county codes. Shifts in portfolio concentrations are monitored. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Company's total exposure to the lessors of nonresidential buildings' industry wasand lessors of residential buildings' industry were 13% and 12% of total loans and 32% and 28% of total commercial real estate loans.loans, respectively. There were no other industry exposures exceeding 10% of the Company's total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.

Credit Quality Indicators

To further identify loans with similar risk profiles, the Company categorizes each portfolio segment into classes by credit risk characteristic and applies a credit quality indicator to each portfolio segment. The indicators for commercial real estate - non-owner-occupied and owner-occupied, commercial and residential real estate portfolio segments are represented by Grades 1 through 10 as outlined below. In general, risk ratings are adjusted periodically throughout the year as updated analysis and review warrants. This process may include, but is not limited to, annual credit and loan reviews, periodic reviews of loan performance metrics, such as delinquency rates, and quarterly reviews of adversely risk rated loans. The Company uses the following definitions when assessing grades for the purpose of evaluating the risk and adequacy of the ACL on loans:

Grade 1 through 6 — Grades 1 through 6 represent groups of loans that are not subject to adverse criticism as defined in regulatory guidance. Loans in these groups exhibit characteristics that represent low to moderate risks, which is measured using a variety of credit risk criteria, such as cash flow coverage, debt service coverage, balance sheet leverage, liquidity, management experience, industry position, prevailing economic conditions, support from secondary sources of repayment and other credit factors that may be relevant to a specific loan. In general, these loans are supported by properly margined collateral and guarantees of principal parties.
19


Grade 7 — Loans with potential weakness (Special Mention). Loans in this category are currently protected based on collateral and repayment capacity and do not constitute undesirable credit risk, but have potential weakness that may result in deterioration of the repayment process at some future date. This classification is used if a negative trend is evident in the obligor’s financial situation. Special mention loans do not sufficiently expose the Company to warrant adverse classification.
Grade 8 — Loans with definite weakness (Substandard). Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by collateral pledged. Borrowers experience difficulty in meeting debt repayment requirements. Deterioration is sufficient to cause the Company to look to the sale of collateral.
Grade 9 — Loans with potential loss (Doubtful). Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in the substandard grade with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation of the loan in full highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of some loss is extremely high, but because of specific pending factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the asset, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
Grade 10 — Loans with definite loss (Loss). Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible. The loss classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset because recovery and collection time may be protracted.

The Company periodically reassesses asset quality indicators to reflect appropriately the risk composition of the Company’s loan portfolio. Home equity and consumer loans are not individually risk rated, but rather analyzed as groups taking into account delinquency rates and other economic conditions which may affect the ability of borrowers to meet debt service requirements, including interest rates and energy costs. Performing loans include loans that are current and loans that are past due less than 90 days. Loans that are past due over 90 days and non-accrual loans, including TDRs prior to adoption of ASU 2022-02, are considered non-performing.

Past Due and Non-Accrual Loans

The Company closely monitors the performance of its loan portfolio. A loan is placed on non-accrual status when the financial condition of the borrower is deteriorating, payment in full of both principal and interest is not expected as scheduled, or principal or interest has been in default for 90 days or more. Exceptions may be made if the asset is secured by collateral sufficient to satisfy both the principal and accrued interest in full and collection is reasonably assured. When one loan to a borrower is placed on non-accrual status, all other loans to the borrower are re-evaluated to determine if they should also be placed on non-accrual status. All previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed at this time. A loan will return to accrual status when collection of principal and interest is assured and the borrower has demonstrated timely payments of principal and interest for a reasonable period, generally at least six months. Unsecured loans, however, are not normally placed on non-accrual status because they are generally charged-off once their collectability is in doubt.

The Company's policy is to reverse previously recorded interest income when a loan is placed on non-accrual. As a result, the Company did not record any interest income on its non-accruals for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 2021.

TDRsLoan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

TheEffective January 1, 2023, the Company takes a conservative approach with credit risk managementadopted prospectively ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and remains focused on community lendingVintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02"). ASU 2022-02 provided guidance that eliminated the recognition and reinvesting. Themeasurement of TDRs. Following the adoption of this guidance, the Company works closely withevaluates all loan modifications made to borrowers experiencing credit problemsfinancial difficulty, according to assist inthe accounting guidance for loan repaymentrefinancing and restructuring to determine whether such loan modification should be accounted for as a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Our loan modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are generally accounted for as a continuation of the existing loan.

We offer several types of loans and receivables modification programs to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, primarily interest rate reductions and term modifications.extensions. In such instances, we may modify loans and receivables with the intention to minimize future losses and improve collectability, while providing customers with temporary or permanent financial relief. There were no modified loans that required disclosure for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Troubled Debt Restructuring Disclosures Prior to Adoption of ASU 2022-02

Prior to the Company's adoption of ASU 2022-02, which became effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, TDRs consistconsisted of loans where the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, granted a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. TDRs typically involveinvolved term modifications or a reduction of either interest or principal. Once such an obligation has been restructured, it will remain a TDR until paid in full, or until the loan is again restructured at current market rates and no concessions are granted.

The specific reserve allowance was determined by discounting the total expected future cash flows from the borrower at the original loan interest rate, or if the loan is currently collateral-dependent, using net realizable value, which was obtained through independent appraisals and internal evaluations.

Refer to Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements for further details.

NOTE 6 – REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The Company can raise additional liquidity by entering into repurchase agreements at its discretion. In a security repurchase agreement transaction, the Company will generally sell a security, agreeing to repurchase either the same or a substantially identical security on a specified later date, at a greater price than the original sales price. The difference between the sale price and purchase price is the cost of the proceeds, which is recorded within interest on borrowings on the consolidated statements of income. The securities underlying the agreements are delivered to counterparties as collateral for the repurchase obligations. Because the securities are treated as collateral and the agreement does not qualify for a full transfer of effective control, the transactions do not meet the criteria to be classified as sales, and are therefore considered secured borrowing
transactions for accounting purposes. Payments on such borrowings are interest only until the scheduled repurchase date. In a repurchase agreement the Company is subject to the risk that the purchaser may default at maturity and not return the securities underlying the agreements. In order to minimize this potential risk, the Company either deals with established firms when entering into these transactions, or with customers whose agreements stipulate that the securities underlying the agreement are not delivered to the customer and instead are held in segregated safekeeping accounts by the Company's safekeeping agents.

The table below sets forth information regarding the Company’s repurchase agreements accounted for as secured borrowings and types of collateral as of the dates indicated:

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a borrower to a third party. In the event of nonperformance by the borrower, the Company would be required to fund the commitment and would be entitled to the underlying collateral, if applicable, which generally consists of pledges of business assets including, but not limited to, accounts receivable, inventory, plant and equipment, and/or real estate. The maximum potential future payments are limited to the contractual amount of the commitment.

The Company establishes an ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures on its contractual off-balance sheet commitments, except those that are unconditionally cancellable by the Company. As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures was $3.4$3.0 million and $3.2$3.3 million, respectively. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposure was presented within accrued interest and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of condition.

For the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, the (credit) provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures was $251,000($275,000) and $670,000,$161,000, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposure was $246,000 and $617,000.

Legal Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to pending and threatened litigation, claims investigations and legal and administrative cases and proceedings. Although the Company is not able to predict the outcome of such actions, after reviewing pending and threatened actions with counsel, management believes that, based on the information currently available, the outcome of such actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reserves are established for legal claims only when losses associated with the claims are judged to be probable, and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Assessments of litigation exposure are difficult because they involve inherently unpredictable factors including, but not limited to: whether the proceeding is in the early stages; whether damages are unspecified, unsupported, or uncertain; whether there is a potential for punitive or other pecuniary damages; whether the matter involves legal uncertainties, including novel issues of law; whether the matter involves multiple parties and/or jurisdictions; whether discovery has begun or is not complete; whether meaningful settlement discussions have commenced; and whether the lawsuit involves class allegations. In many lawsuits and arbitrations, it is not possible to determine whether a liability has been incurred or to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case a reserve will not be recognized until that time. Assessments of class action litigation, which is generally more complex than other types of litigation, are particularly difficult, especially in the early stages of the proceeding when it is not known whether a class will be certified or how a potential class, if certified, will be defined. As a result, the Company may be unable to estimate reasonably possible losses with respect to every litigation matter it faces.

27


The Company did not have any material loss contingencies that were provided for and/or that are required to be disclosed as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

The Company is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s credit derivatives result from loan participation arrangements, and therefore are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities.

25


Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments - Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest Rate Contracts.Contracts - Cash Flow Hedges. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest income and expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed rate payments or the receipt of fixed rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate assets or liabilities or forecasted issuances of debt.

For derivatives designated, and that qualify as, cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCI and subsequently is reclassified into interest expense or interest income in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense or interest income as interest payments are made or received on the Company’s variable-rate liabilities or assets. The Company estimates that an additional $2.8$2.5 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense and an additional $2.6$3.0 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest income over the next 12 months.

Interest Rate Contracts - Fair Value Hedges. Derivatives designated as fair value hedges are utilized to mitigate the risk of changes in the fair values of recognized assets and liabilities. The Company uses interest rate contracts in this manner to manage its exposure to changes in the fair value of hedged items caused by changes in interest rates.

Changes in the fair value of the derivatives and changes in the fair value of the hedged item due to changes in the hedged risk are recognized in earnings in the same line item. If a hedge is terminated, but the hedged item was not derecognized, all remaining adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged item are amortized over a period that is consistent with the amortization of other discounts or premiums associated with the hedged item.

Derivatives not Designated as Hedges

Customer Loan Swaps. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain customers. The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions.
28


As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Fixed Rate Mortgage Interest Rate Lock Commitments. As part of the origination process of a residential loan, the Company may enter into rate lock agreements with its borrower, which is considered an interest rate lock commitment. If the Company intends to sell the loan upon origination, it will account for the interest rate lock commitment as a derivative.

Forward Delivery Commitments. The Company typically enters into a forward delivery commitment with a secondary market investor, which has been approved by the Company within its normal governance process, at the onset of the loan origination process. The Company may enter into these arrangements with the secondary market investors on a "best effort" or "mandatory delivery" basis. The Company's normal practice is typically to enter into these arrangements on a "best effort" basis. The Company enters into these arrangements with the secondary market investors to manage its interest rate exposure. The Company accounts for the forward delivery commitment as a derivative upon origination of a loan identified as held for sale.

Risk Participation Agreements. The Company’s existing credit derivatives result from participations in or out of interest rate swaps provided by or to external lenders as part of loan participation arrangements, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain lenders which participate in loans.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features    

By using derivatives, the Company is exposed to credit risk to the extent that counterparties to the derivative contracts do not perform as required. Should a counterparty fail to perform under the terms of a derivative contract, the Company’s credit exposure on interest rate swaps is limited to the net positive fair value and accrued interest of all swaps with each counterparty. The Company seeks to minimize counterparty credit risk through credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures, and obtaining collateral, where appropriate. As such, management believes the risk of incurring credit losses on derivative contracts with institutional counterparties is remote.

The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. In addition, the Company also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well- capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative position(s) and the Company could be required to settle its obligations under the agreements.

As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for non-performance risk, related to these agreements was $16.1$11.6 million and $26.1$14.8 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of its derivative counterparties and has posted cash collateral of $0 and $30.7 million,$0, respectively. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2021,2022, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $16.1$11.6 million and $26.1$14.8 million, respectively.

NOTE 9 – BALANCE SHEET OFFSETTING

The Company does not offset the carrying value for derivative instruments or repurchase agreements on the consolidated statements of condition. The Company nets the amount recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral against the obligation to return cash collateral arising from instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement. Collateral legally required to be pledged or received is monitored and adjusted as necessary. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion of repurchase agreements and Note 8 for further discussion of derivative instruments.

NOTE 10 – REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
 
The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FRB and the OCC. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company and Bank are required to maintain certain levels of capital based on risk-adjusted assets. These capital requirements represent quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and Bank's capital classification is also subject to qualitative judgments by our regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. The quantitative measures established to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total capital, Tier 1 capital, and common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, or the leverage ratio. These requirements apply to the Company on a consolidated basis.

Under the current requirements, banking organizations must have a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0%, a minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0%, a minimum common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4.5%, and a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% in order to be "adequately capitalized." In addition to these requirements, banking organizations must maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of common Tier 1 equity in an amount above the minimum
3133


risk-based capital requirements for "adequately capitalized" institutions equal to 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets, resulting in a requirement for the Company and the Bank effectively to maintain common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively. The Company and the Bank must maintain the capital conservation buffer to avoid restrictions on the ability to pay dividends, pay discretionary bonuses and to engage in share repurchases based on the amount of the shortfall and the institution's "eligible retained income" (that is, the greater of (i) net income for the preceding four quarters, net of distributions and associated tax effects not reflected in net income and (ii) average net income over the preceding four quarters).

The Company and Bank's risk-based capital ratios exceeded regulatory requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, and the Bank's capital ratios met the requirements for it to be considered "well capitalized" under prompt corrective action provisions for each period. There were no changes to the Company or Bank's capital ratios that occurred subsequent to September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 that would change the Company or Bank's regulatory capital categorization. The following table presents the Company and Bank's regulatory capital ratios at the periods indicated:

(1)    “Minimum Regulatory Provisions to Be ‘Well Capitalized’” are not formally defined under applicable banking regulations for bank holding companies.

In 2006 and 2008, the Company issued $43.0 million of junior subordinated debentures in connection with the issuance of trust preferred securities. Although the junior subordinated debentures are recorded as liabilities on the Company's consolidated statements of condition, the Company is permitted, in accordance with applicable regulation, to include the debentures within its calculation of risk-based capital, subject to certain limits. At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, $43.0 million of the junior subordinated debentures were included in Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital for the Company.

The Company and Bank's regulatory capital and risk-weighted assets fluctuate due to normal business, including profits and losses generated by the Company and Bank as well as changes to their asset mix. Of particular significance are changes within the Company and Bank's loan portfolio mix due to the differences in regulatory risk-weighting between retail and commercial loans. Furthermore, the Company and Bank's regulatory capital and risk-weighted assets are subject to change due to changes in GAAP and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank proactively monitor their regulatory capital and risk-weighted assets, and the impact of changes to their asset mix, and the impact of proposed and pending changes as a result of new and/or amended GAAP standards and regulatory changes.

NOTE 12 – REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

A portion of the Company's non-interest income is derived from contracts with customers, and, as such, the revenue recognized depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company considers the terms of the contract and all relevant facts and circumstances when applying this guidance.

35


The Company has disaggregated its revenue from contracts with customers into categories based on the nature of the revenue. The categorization of revenues from contracts with customers that are within the scope of ASC 606 closely aligns with the presentation of revenue categories presented within non-interest income on the consolidated statements of income. The following table presents the revenue streams within the scope of ASC 606 for the periods indicated:

Non-vested stock-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and are included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain of the Company’s non-vested stock-based awards qualify as participating securities. 
  
Net income is allocated between the common stock and participating securities pursuant to the two-class method. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding participating non-vested stock-based awards. Diluted EPS is computed in a similar manner, except that the denominator includes the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares were issued using the treasury stock method.

NOTE 15 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND DISCLOSURE

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined using quoted market prices. However, in many instances, quoted market prices are not available. In such instances, fair values are determined using various valuation techniques. Various assumptions and observable inputs must be relied upon in applying these techniques. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
 
GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has elected the fair value option for its loans held for sale. Electing the fair value option for loans held for sale enables the Company’s financial position to align more clearly with the economic value of the actively traded asset.

The fair value hierarchy for valuation of an asset or liability is as follows:
 
37


Level 1:   Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
 
Level 2:   Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, from quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.
 
Level 3:   Valuation is derived from model-based and other techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and which may be based on the Company’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability.
 
In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon model-based techniques incorporating various assumptions including interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit losses. Assets and liabilities valued using model-based techniques are classified as either Level 2 or Level 3, depending on the lowest level classification of an input that is considered significant to the overall valuation. A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Trading Securities and Deferred Compensation: The fair value of trading securities and deferred compensation is reported using market quoted prices and has been classified as Level 1 as such securities and underlying securities are actively traded and no valuation adjustments have been applied.

Debt Securities:  The fair value of investments in debt securities is reported utilizing prices provided by an independent pricing service based on recent trading activity and other observable information including, but not limited to, dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, market interest rate curves, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the bond’s terms and conditions. The fair value of debt securities is classified as Level 2.

38


Loans Held For Sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is determined on an individual loan basis using quoted secondary market prices and is classified as Level 2.

Derivatives:  The fair value of interest rate swaps is determined using inputs that are observable in the market place obtained from third parties including yield curves, publicly available volatilities, and floating indexes and, accordingly, are classified as Level 2 inputs. The credit value adjustments associated with derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the credit valuation adjustment on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and was not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives, and, thus, the Company's interest rate swaps were classified as Level 2.

The fair value of the Company's fixed rate interest rate lock commitments were determined using secondary market pricing for loans with similar structures, including term, rate and borrower credit quality, adjusted for the Company's pull-through rate estimate (i.e. estimate of loans within its loan pipeline that will ultimately complete the origination process and be funded). The Company has classified its fixed rate interest rate lock commitments as Level 2, as the quoted secondary market prices are the more significant input, and, although the Company's internal pull-through rate estimate is a Level 3 estimate, it is less significant to the ultimate valuation.

The fair value of the Company's forward delivery commitments is determined using secondary market pricing for loans with similar structures, including term, rate and borrower credit quality, and the locked and agreed to price with the secondary market investor. The Company has classified its fixed rate interest rate lock commitments as Level 2.

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
 
The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP.GAAP, which may consist of collateral-dependent loans and servicing assets. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period. As of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any material financial instruments measured and reported at fair value.

Collateral-Dependent Loans:  Expected credit losses on individually assessed loans deemed to be collateral dependent are valued based upon the lower of amortized cost or fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell. Management estimates the fair values of these assets using Level 2 inputs, such as the fair value of collateral based on independent third-party market approach appraisals for collateral-dependent loans, and Level 3 inputs where circumstances warrant an adjustment to the appraised value based on the age of the appraisal and/or comparable sales, condition of the collateral, and market conditions.

Servicing Assets:  The Company accounts for mortgage servicing assets at cost, subject to impairment testing. When the carrying value of a tranche exceeds fair value, a valuation allowance is established to reduce the carrying cost to fair value. Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The Company obtains a third-party valuation based upon loan level data including note rate, type and term of the underlying loans. The model utilizes two significant unobservable inputs, namely loan prepayment assumptions and the discount rate used, to calculate the fair value of each tranche, and, as such, the Company has classified the model within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Non-Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company hashad no non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. Non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis consist of OREO, goodwill and core deposit intangible assets. 

OREO: OREO properties acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure are recorded at net realizable value, which is the fair value of the real estate, less estimated costs to sell. Any write-down of the recorded investment in the related loan is charged to the ACL upon transfer to OREO. Upon acquisition of a property, a current appraisal is used or an internal valuation is prepared to substantiate fair value of the property. After foreclosure, management periodically, but at least annually, obtains updated valuations of the OREO properties and, if additional impairments are deemed necessary, the subsequent write-downs for declines in value are recorded through a valuation allowance and a provision for credit losses charged to other non-interest expense within the consolidated statements of income. As management considers appropriate, adjustments are made to the appraisal obtained for the OREO property to account for recent sales activity of comparable properties, changes in the condition of the property, and changes in market conditions. These adjustments are not observable in an active market and are classified as Level 3. At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company did not have any OREO properties.

Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. The fair value of goodwill is estimated by utilizing several standard valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses, bank merger multiples, and/or an estimation of the impact of business conditions and investor activities on the long-term value of the goodwill. Should an impairment occur, the associated goodwill is written-down to fair value and the impairment charge is recorded within non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Company conducts an annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter each year, or more frequently as necessary. There have been no indications or triggering events during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, for which management believes it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired.

Core Deposit Intangible Assets: The Company's core deposit intangible assets represent the estimated value of acquired customer relationships and are amortized over the estimated life of those relationships. Core deposit intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. There were no events or changes in circumstances for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, that indicated the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATION TO GAAP

In addition to evaluating the Company’s results of operations in accordance with GAAP, management supplements this evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures, return on average tangible equity; the efficiency ratio; net interest income (fully-taxable equivalent); earnings before income taxes and provision; earnings before income taxes, provision, and SBA PPP loan income; total loans, excluding SBA PPP loans; adjusted yield on interest-earning assets and adjusted net interest margin (fully-taxable equivalent); tangible book value per share; tangible common equity ratio; and core deposits and average core deposits. We utilize these non-GAAP financial measures for purposes of measuring performance against the Company's peer group and other financial institutions, as well as for analyzing its internal performance. The Company also believes these non-GAAP financial measures help investors better understand the Company's operating performance and trends and allows for better performance comparisons to other banks. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures remove the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP operating results, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other financial institutions.

Return on Average Tangible Equity. Return on average tangible equity is the ratio of (i) net income, adjusted for (a) tax effected amortization of core deposit intangible assets and (b) goodwill impairment, as necessary, to (ii) average shareholders' equity, adjusted for average goodwill and core deposit intangible assets. This adjusted financial ratio reflects a shareholder's return on tangible capital deployed in our business and is a common measure within the financial services industry.

Earnings before Income Taxes and Provision, and Earnings before Income Taxes, Provision and SBA PPP Loan Income. Earnings before income taxes and provision, and earnings before income taxes, provision and SBA PPP loan income are each a supplemental measure of operating earnings and performance. Earnings before income taxes and provision is calculated as net income before provision for credit losses and income tax expense, and earnings before income taxes, provision and SBA PPP loan income is calculated as net income before provision for credit losses, income tax expense and SBA PPP loan income. These supplemental measures have become more widely used by financial institutions as a measure of financial performance for comparability across financial institutions due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the provision for credit losses, as well as the origination of SBA PPP loans in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not a recurring and sustainable source of revenues for financial institutions.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
 
ThirdFirst Quarter Update. Throughout the thirdfirst quarter of 2022, global and national markets were, again, challenged2023, the interest rate environment remained volatile, highlighted by the dynamic10-year U.S Treasury ranging from 3.37% to 4.08% and rapid shiftaveraging 3.65% for the quarter. The yield curve continues to be inverted, and for the first quarter of 2023 the average 3-month U.S. Treasury was 114 basis points higher than the average 10-year U.S. Treasury. The volatility in interest rates and prolonged inverted yield curve continues to be the result of rising interest rates in response to inflationary pressures in the operating environment, continuingU.S., but were amplified further by the trend from the beginningfailing of two regional banks in March 2023, and concerns that additional banks could fail, which did subsequently occur on May 1, 2023. As a result of the year. Duringturbulence in the thirdbanking industry in the first quarter of 2022,2023, the FOMC raisedfocus across much of the Federal Funds Rate a total of 1.50% through two 0.75% interest rate increases in July and September, which brought the Federal Funds Rate target interest rate rangeindustry quickly transitioned from earnings to 3.00% - 3.25%. Through the first nine months of 2022, the Federal Funds Rate has increased in total 3.00% as it works to slow national inflation. Current expectations are for the FOMC to continue to increase interest through the end of 2022 and into 2023.financial position.

ThroughThe Company's financial footing is strong based on firm fundamentals that are supported by a diverse deposit base, a strong liquidity position, excellent asset quality and regulatory capital that is well in excess of all required levels. The following are a few metrics that highlight the first nine monthsCompany's financial strength as of March 31, 2023:
Uninsured and uncollateralized1 deposits were 15% of total deposits, compared to 16% as of December 31, 2022, which speaks to the diversification of our depositor base.
1 Uncollateralized deposits are customer deposit balances for which the Company has seen the impactnot pledged any of the change in the interest rate environment and stock market directly within its own operations and financial results, not unlikeassets, including investment securities, or provided any other banks, including:type of guarantee.
4948


The changePrimary liquidity sources, which consists of cash, investment securities and FHLBB and FRB borrowing capacity, totaled $1.3 billion, which was approximately 1.9 times total uninsured and uncollateralized deposits.
Annualized net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2023 were 0.02%, compared to 0.03% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and 0.02% for the first quarter of 2022.
Non-performing assets were 0.09% of total assets and past due loans were 0.05% of total loans, compared to 0.09% and 0.06%, respectively, as of December 31, 2022.
Equity to assets ratio was 8.13% and tangible common equity ratio (non-GAAP) was 6.56%, compared to 7.96% and 6.37%, respectively, as of December 31, 2022.
Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.90%, which exceeded the minimum regulatory capital required for capital adequacy plus the capital conservation buffer by 4.90%.

Like many others across the banking industry, the Company's earnings have been affected by the inverted yield curve, as deposit and funding costs have risen at a faster pace than our assets have repriced, which in turn has resulted in continued compression of our net interest margin. Our net interest margin for the first quarter of 2023 was 2.54%, compared to 2.76% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2.87% for the first quarter of 2022. We have taken, and continue to take, actions to manage net interest margin closely, including, but not limited to, disciplined loan and deposit pricing, as well as the utilization of interest rate environment through the nine months ended September 30, 2022, comparedswaps and brokered and retail CDs to the same period last yearreduce our exposure to rising short-term interest rates. The results of these actions can beenbe seen in our interest rate risk position as of March 31, 2023, which is detailed in our interest rate risk modeling within "—Risk Management—Interest Rate Risk," as the Company's net interest income andat risk over a 12-month period improved in an up 200 basis points scenario (based on our model as described). As of March 31, 2023, net interest margin. Should interest rates continueincome would decrease 2.24% in an up 200 basis point scenario, as compared to drive higher, we anticipate this will likely impact overall growth nationally and within our markets and lead to slowing loan demand in coming periods.a decrease of 3.93% as of December 31, 2022.

The effectsCompany's investment portfolio continues to be a primary source of liquidity through investment cash flows, as well as the change inability to pledge securities as collateral for funding. As of March 31, 2023, the interest rate environment across the same periods can also be seen on the Company's stockholders' equity (or capital). The sharp rise in interest rates through the nine months ended September 30, 2022, has led to a sharp decrease in the valuationfair value of the Company's bond portfolio was $1.2 billion and was in a net unrealized loss position of $122.0 million. We did not purchase any investments portfolio. Thoseduring the first quarter of 2023, as we used investment cash flows to fund incremental loan growth. The investment portfolio continues to be primarily made up of agency-backed MBS and CMO, but also contains subordinated corporate bonds designated and accounted formunicipal securities as AFS are carried at fair valuefurther described within "—Financial Condition—Investments." While the investment portfolio consists primarily of highly-rated securities, the Company did fully charge-off of a $1.8 million Signature Bank bond due to Signature Bank's failure in March 2023. As of March 31, 2023, we did not have any other exposures to failed banks. The weighted-average life and the change in fair value between periods is accounted for in AOCI within shareholders' equity. As a result, the Company's stockholders' equityduration of our bond portfolio as of March 31, 2023, was 8.2 years and 5.7 years, respectively, compared to total assets ratio has decreased from 9.84% at7.8 years and 5.8 years, respectively, as of December 31, 2021 to 7.76% at September 30, 2022, and its tangible common equity ratio (non-GAAP) has decreased from 8.22% at December 31, 2021 to 6.13% at September 30, 2022. The Company's regulatory capital ratios, as described in Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements, continue to be strong and well in excess of regulatory capital requirements.
The growing risk of a near-term recession has been factored into the Company's ACL calculation through the first nine months of 2022 and has resulted in an increase to the ACL the last two quarters, including the third quarter of 2022, despite excellent credit quality across the Company's loan portfolio.
Lower market-related revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods of 2021, including income from fiduciary services and BOLI.

Net interest income for the first nine months of 2022 was $110.7 million, an increase of $10.1 million, or 10%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This increase was driven by average interest-earning assets growth of $394.4 million, or 8%, along with the net interest margin expansion of 4 basis points to 2.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2022 was $30.9 million, a decrease of $6.7 million, or 18%, compared to the same period in 2021. Mortgage banking income was the primary reason for the decrease between periods as revenues decreased $8.4 million, or 73%, as residential mortgage production decreased 25% between periods, and the Company sold 21% of its production through the first nine months of 2022, compared to 47% for the same period last year. Increases in other business lines partially offset the decrease in mortgage banking, including service charge fees, brokerage and insurance commissions, debit card income and other income due to the sale of property.

A provision for credit losses of $4.0 million was recorded for the first nine months of 2022, compared to a release of $4.4 million for the same period 2021.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income is the interest earned on loans, securities, and other interest-earning assets, adjusted for net loan fees, origination costs, and accretion or amortization of fair value marks on loans and/or CDs created in purchase accounting, less the interest paid on interest-bearing deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is our largest source of revenue ("revenue" is defined as the sum of net interest income and non-interest income). For the quarter ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, net interest income was 79%78% of total revenues, compared to 76%79% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Net interest income is affected by several factors including, but not limited to, changes in interest rates, loan and deposit pricing strategies and competitive conditions, the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and liabilities, and the level of non-performing assets.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022,Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income was $37.8 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 9%, over the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and on a fully-taxable equivalent basis (non-GAAP), net interest income was $38.1 million, an increase as a percentage of $3.1 million, or 9%, over the same period.average interest-earning assets.

Net Interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent basis increased $7.2 million, or 19%, over this period to $44.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, while interest expense increased $4.1 million, or 157%, to $6.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
The increase inIncome and Net Interest Margin.Net interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent basis for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 overMarch 31, 2023 was $34.5 million, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 6%, compared to the same quarter last year was driven by: (1) average interest-earning asset growth of $221.6 million, or 4%, between periods, which included average loan growth of $497.1 million, or 15%, netperiod in 2022. The decrease consisted of a decrease in interest-earning cash balances of $274.5$16.0 million or 90%, (2) the increase in interest expense, which reflects the change in short-term interest rate environment between periods driving a higher yield of 43 basis pointsrates between periods, partially offset by (3) lower SBA PPP loan income of $1.9 million.
Our average loan growth between periods was attributable to the growth of: (1) residential real estate, which grew $396.9 million, or 34%, reflecting our strategy to hold more residential mortgage production within our loan portfolio, (2) commercial real estate, which grew $136.4 million, or 10%, and (3) commercial loans, which grew $53.5 million, or 15%, offsetting (4) decreasing average SBA PPP loan balances of $104.5 million as the majority of borrowers took advantage of loan forgiveness.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, our interest-earning asset yield increased to 3.40%, compared to 2.97% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. This increase in our interest-earning asset yield was the result of: (1) the shift in asset mix between periods with excess cash being deployed to fund strong loan growth of 16% between periods, primarily in residential mortgages, and (2) the change in the interest rate environment through the first nine months of 2022 as the FOMC has sharply raised interest rates in an effort to curb high levels of inflation. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the average interest rate for 10-year U.S. Treasury was 3.10%, compared to 1.32% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

The increase in interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, over the same period last year was driven by an increase in the cost of funds as total funding liabilities increased 32 basis points between periods to 0.54% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Between periods, cost of deposits increased 30 basis points and cost of borrowings increased 62 basis points bringing each to 0.45% and 0.54% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in the cost of deposits and borrowings between period was, too, driven by the sharp increase in interest rates between periods. Our growth in average deposits over the past twelve months of $307.1 million, or 7%, enabled the Company to fund its 5% interest-earning asset growth, or $221.6 million, between periods through lower cost deposits. Average deposit growth between periods was driven by average interest checking and savings balances increasing $255.8 million, or 21%, and $86.4 million, or 13%, respectively, which offset lower average CD balances of $37.8 million, or 12%, between periods. Average total borrowings decreased $54.2 million, or 11%, between periods due to the strong aforementioned average deposit growth. Within average total borrowings, average brokered deposit balances decreased $208.7 million, or 72%, and average other borrowings, which consisted of FHLBB overnight and short-term advances, increased $108.1 million between periods.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net interest margin was 2.88%, an increase of 12 basis points over the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net interest income was $110.7 million, an increase of $10.1 million, or 10%, over the same period for 2021, and on a fully-taxable equivalent basis (non-GAAP) was $111.4 million, an increase of $10.0 million, or 10%, over the same period. Interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent basis increased $14.4 million, or 13%, over this period to $124.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, while interest expense increased $4.4 million, or 52%, over this period to $12.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent basis of $13.9 million, or 36%, between periods.

Our net interest margin on a fully-taxable equivalent basis for the nine monthsquarters ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022 was 2.54% and 2.87%, respectively.
The increase in interest expense between periods was primarily the result of a 124basis points increase in our average cost of funds. The Federal Funds Target Rate range at March 31, 2023 was 4.75% - 5.00%, compared to 0.25% - 0.50% at March 31, 2022. From the start of the rising interest rate cycle (December 31, 2021), the Company has actively managed its funding costs and, in doing so, has held its total funding beta2 to 28% through March 31, 2023. More recently, the Company has seen its total funding cost beta rise at an accelerated pace due to the FOMC increasing interest rates 125 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2022 and another 50 basis points in the first quarter of 2023. The Company's total funding beta for the first quarter of 2023 was 56%.
The Company’s funding costs grew to 1.45% for first quarter of 2023, compared to 0.21% for the first quarter of 2022 as deposits costs increased 107 basis points over this period to 1.22% for the samefirst quarter of 2023 and borrowing costs increased 228 basis points over this period last yearto 3.13% for the first quarter of 2023. As short-term interest rates continued to rise, depositors became more interest rate sensitive and deposit balances shifted from lower cost deposits, such as non-interest checking and savings, to higher cost deposits, such as interest checking and CDs.
The increase in interest income between periods was driven by: (1)by both interest-earning assets yield expansion and average interest-earning asset growth of $394.4 million, or 8%, between periods, which included average loan growth of $355.5 million, or 11%, average investments growth of $229.5 million, or 19%, offset by the decrease in average interest-earning cash balances of $190.6 million, or 76%, partially offset by (2) lower SBA PPP loan income of $4.2 million. Our average loan growth between periods was concentrated in: (1) residential real estate, which grew $342.3 million, or 31%, as, we continue the strategy to hold more residential mortgage loan production in our loan portfolio, (2) commercial real estate, which grew $112.1 million, or 8%, and (3) commercial loans, which grew $50.0 million, or 15%, offsetting (4) decreasing average SBA PPP loan balances of $130.3 million as the majority of borrowers took advantage of loan forgiveness programs, and (5) decrease average consumer loans of $15.0$311.7 million, or 6%. Our investment growth betweenBetween periods, wasour yield on interest-earning assets grew 85 basis points to 3.92% for the first quarter of 2023, driven by our increased investment activity in 2021 as we deployed our low interest earning excess liquidityloan yield expansion of 80 basis points to drive net interest income growth through higher yielding assets available at that time.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our interest-earning asset yield was 3.19%, compared to 3.06%4.50% for the same period last year. This increase in our interest-earning asset yield was driven by the increase in our averagefirst quarter of 2023 and investment yield expansion of 1135 basis points between periods to 1.92%2.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The average loanfirst quarter of 2023. over this same period. This increased yield remained flat at 3.75% forreflects the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. This was driven by the by the decrease in average loan yield for residential mortgages of 21 basis points. Throughout 2021, customers actively refinanced residential loans to take advantage of the lower interest rate environment driving lower yielding new loan originations and compressing the average yield in the mortgage loan segments. This decrease in mortgage yield was offset by the increase in commercial real estate of 22 basis points with more variable rate loans that broke through the floor in 2022 as interest rates continued to rise in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, over the same period last year was driven by an increase in the cost of funds as total funding liabilities increased 10 basis points between periods to 0.35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Between periods, the cost of deposits increased 10 basis points and the cost of borrowings increased 19 basis points bringing each to 0.27% and 0.35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in the cost of deposits and borrowings between period was driven by the sharp increase in interest rates between periods. Our growth

The derivative transaction was designated as a “fair value hedge” under ASC 815, and was completed to fundreduce its 8% interest-earning asset growth, or $394.4 million, between periods through lower cost deposits. Average deposit growth between periods was driven by average core deposits (non-GAAP) growth of $479.0 million, or 13%, which offset lower average CD balances of $41.6 million, or 12%, between periods. Average total borrowings decreased $54.6 million, or 11%, between periods duenear-term interest rate risk exposure to the strong aforementioned average deposit growth.

(1)Service charges on deposit accounts: The increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods of 2021, was driven by a decrease in overdraft fees in 2021 due to stimulus funds received by customers and an increase in deposit account fees due to program and product changes. In September 2022, the Company made certain non-sufficient funds and overdraft program changes to assist our customers and support their financial well-being. The changes are not expected to materially decrease revenues.

(2)    Mortgage banking income, net: The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, compared to the same period of 2021,2022, was driven by the change in the housing market between periods, highlighted by the changeshift in the interest ratesrate environment between periods.periods that drove the decrease in mortgage production of 58% compared to the first quarter of 2022. During the thirdfirst quarter of 2022,2023, the Company sold $38.0$35.1 million, or 21%40%, of its residential mortgage loan production compared to $86.2$46.6 million, or 33%24%, of its residential mortgage loan production for the thirdfirst quarter of 2021. Our markets saw elevated housing demand through 2020 and 2021 largely in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This activity, coupled with the low interest rate environment, drove record residential mortgage production in 2021. The continued increase in interest rates through the first nine months of 2022, together with higher housing prices and operating in highly competitive markets, has slowed residential mortgage production through the first nine months of 2022 and decreased the amount of salable production to the secondary market.2022. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Company's residential mortgage loan pipeline stood at $113.4$45.5 million, compared to the $194.9$121.4 million at September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, a decrease of 42%62%.
The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period of 2021, was due to the decrease in residential mortgage loan sales, compared to September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold $131.6 million, or 21%, of its residential mortgages, compared to $389.6 million, or 47%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease was driven by the decrease in residential mortgage production through the first nine months of 2022 (for the reasons outlined above), which have slowed commensurate with the overall industry.
(3)    Bank-owned life insurance: The decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods of 2021, was the result of underlying investments in one of the Company's BOLI contracts dropping below its stable value wrapper and, thus, a write down was recognized in the third quarter of 2022. A further decrease in the market value of these underlying investments within this contract may result in lower BOLI income in future periods.
(4)(2)    Other income: The increase in other income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 was driven by the salefirst quarter of a property in 2022. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2022,2023, compared to the same period in 2021,last year, was primarily driven by the salean increase in customer loan swap fees of the property, along with increased foreign exchange fees and credit card interchange fees during the first nine months of the year.$299,000.

ACL on Loans
Loans.
There were no significant changes in our modeling methodology to determine the ACL on loans during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. The significant key assumptions used with the ACL on loans calculation at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, included: (i) Company-specific macroeconomic factors (i.e. loss drivers), (ii) our forecast period and reversion speed, (iii) prepayment speeds, and (iv) various qualitative factors.

As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the recorded ACL on loans was $36.5$37.1 million and $33.3$36.9 million, respectively, and represented our best estimate. The increase in the ACL on loans between periods was primarily driven by loan growth and the economic outlook of a softening economy over the coming quarters, net of the release of $5.0 million of reserves provided for certain COVID modified loans deemed as "recovered" or have been paid off. To have been deemed "recovered" by the Company, the borrower must have met certain credit metrics, including a debt service coverage ratio and consistent timely payments of full principal and interest under an agreed upon payment schedule. Refer to "—Results of Operations—Provision for Credit Losses—Provision (Credit) for Loan Losses" for further discussion of the drivers of the change between periods. As of September 30, 2022, all COVID modified loans have been paid off or deemed fully "recovered".quarters.

The overall global and national markets continue to be volatile and carry a high degree of uncertainty, and any changes to our forecast or qualitative factors subject our ACL estimate to a higher risk of fluctuation between periods.

We may adjust our assumptions to account for differences between expected and actual losses from period to period. A future change of our assumptions likely will alter the level of allowance required and may have a material impact on future results of operations and financial condition. The ACL on loans is reviewed periodically within a calendar quarter to assess trends in CECL key assumptions and asset quality, and their effects on the Company's financial condition.

ACL on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
Exposures.
There were no significant changes in our modeling methodology to determine the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. The model uses the credit loss factors for each segment calculated within the ACL on loans model described above. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, was $3.4$3.0 million and $3.2$3.3 million, respectively.

The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures was presented within accrued interest and other liabilities on the consolidated statements of condition. Increases (decreases) to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures were presented within provision (credit) for credit losses on the consolidated statements of income.

We may adjust our assumptions to account for differences between expected and actual losses from period to period. A future change to our assumptions will likely alter the level of allowance required and may have a material impact on future results of operations and financial condition.

However, excluding the impact of $74.4the one large municipal deposit relationship discussed above, core deposits decreased $156.1 million, or 3%4%, during the period.first quarter of 2023. The decrease in core deposits was primarily the result of normal seasonal outflows combined with pricing pressures as depositors look for alternative products with higher interest rates in the current environment, such as certificates of deposit ("CD"), which increased $59.7 million, or 20%, during the first quarter of 2023.

LIQUIDITY
 
Our liquidity needs require the availability of cash to meet the withdrawal demands of depositors and credit commitments to borrowers. Liquidity is defined as our ability to maintain availability of funds to meet customer needs, as well as to support our asset base. The primary objective of liquidity management is to maintain a balance between sources and uses of funds to meet our cash flow needs in the most economical and expedient manner. Due to the potential for unexpected fluctuations in both deposits and loans, active management of liquidity is necessary. We maintain various sources of funding and levels of liquid assets and monitor liquidity in accordance with internal guidelines and all applicable regulatory requirements. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our level of liquidity exceeded target levels. We believe that we currently have appropriate liquidity available to respond to demands. Sources of funds that we utilize consist of deposits; borrowings from the FHLBB and other sources; cash flows from loans and investments; and cash flows from operations, including other contractual obligations and commitments.

WeDuring the first quarter of 2023, the banking industry experienced two high-profile bank failures, followed by another on May 1, 2023, which led to an industry-wide increase in concerns related to liquidity, deposit outflows and eroding customer confidence in the banking system. Despite these developments and related recent volatility in the banking industry, our liquidity position continued to exceed our target levels and we believe we currently have appropriate liquidity available to respond to demands.

As of March 31, 2023, our primary liquidity sources available were as follows:

(1)     Excess Cash represents cash held at the FRB that is above the minimum reserve requirement. At March 31, 2023 the minimum reserve requirement remains at zero.

Total available primary liquidity of $1.3 billion was 1.9 times uninsured and uncollateralized deposits as of March 31, 2023. Refer to "—Financial Condition—Liabilities—Uninsured and Uncollateralized Deposits" for further details.

In addition to the available primarily liquidity noted above, as of March 31, 2023, we may access additional funding through the brokered markets.

Subsequent to March 31, 2023, we are also now eligible to borrow up to $146.0 million from the Federal Reserve's Bank Term Funding Program ("BTFP"), which provides additional contingent liquidity through the pledging of certain qualifying securities and other assets. Advances can be requested under the BTFP until at least March 11, 2024, and may have a term of up to one year. The Company can borrow any time during the term and can repay the obligation at any time without penalty.
Although we believe that our level of liquidity is sufficient to meet current and future funding requirements; however,requirements, changes in current economic conditions, including consumer saving habits and the availability or access to the brokered deposit and wholesale repurchase markets, could significantly affect our liquidity position.

Deposits. Deposits continue to represent our primary source of funds. As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, total deposits, including brokered deposits, were $4.6 billion, which included money market deposits of $61.5$72.6 million and $63.9$73.5 million, respectively, from Camden National Wealth Management, which represent client funds. These funds fluctuate with changes in the portfolios of the clients of Camden National Wealth Management. Time deposits are generally considered to be more interest rate sensitive than other deposits and, therefore, more likely to be withdrawn to obtain higher yields elsewhere if available.

Loans. Contractual loan repayments also affect our liquidity position. Actual speed and timing of repayment may differ materially from contract terms due to prepayments or nonpayment. Specifically, in a rising interest rate environment prepayment speeds may slow, which then would decrease the pace in which we receive cash flow from loans.

Additionally, we have active relationships with various secondary market investors that purchase residential mortgage loans we originate. In addition to managing our interest rate risk position and earnings through the sale of these loans, we are also able to manage our liquidity position through timely sales of residential mortgage loans to the secondary market.

Investments. We generally invest in amortizing MBS and CMO debt securities that return cash flow at an accelerated rate in comparison to other types of debt securities that are of a bullet structure. MBS and CMO debt security cash flow will vary
depending on the interest rate environment because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without
prepayment penalties. The rise in interest rates during 2022 resulted in slowing cash flows. As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company's MBS and CMO debt securities portfolio totaled 88% and 90%,of book value for both periods, respectively, of the Company's investment portfolio.

Other Liquidity Requirements. Through the Company's normal course of business itThe Company generates cash flows from earnings through its normal course of business from earnings and, whilealthough not contractual, itthe Company has a history of paying a quarterly cash dividend to its shareholders and repurchasing its shares of common stock. For the nine monthsfirst quarter ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Company reported $46.1$12.7 million of net income and paid cash dividends of $17.7$6.1 million to shareholders and repurchased shares of its common stock for $10.0 million.shareholders.

Also through its normal operations, the Company is party to several other contractual obligations not previously discussed, such as various lease agreements on a number of its branches. Renewal options within the various lease contracts, as applicable, were considered to determine the lease term and estimate the contractual obligation and commitment for the Company's operating and finance leases. Furthermore, certain lease contracts of the Company contain language that subject its rent payment to variability, such as those tied to an index or change in an index. As a result, the future contractual obligation and commitment may materially differ from that estimated and disclosed within the table below. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had the following lease and other contractual obligations to make future payments under each of these contracts as follows:

The Company's estimated lease liability for its various operating and finance leases was reported within other liabilities on our consolidated statements of condition.

In the normal course of business, we are a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, which are not reflected in the consolidated statements of condition. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Many of the commitments will expire without being drawn upon, and thus, the total amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Refer to Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements for additional details.

We use derivative financial instruments for risk management purposes (primarily interest rate risk) and not for trading or speculative purposes. These contracts with our various counterparties may subject the Company to various cash flow requirements, which may include posting of cash as collateral (or other assets) for arrangements that the Company is in a liability position (i.e. “underwater”). Refer to Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our derivatives and hedge instruments.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

As part of our goal to operate a safe, sound and profitable financial organization, we are committed to maintaining a strong capital base. Shareholders’ equity totaled $431.0$464.9 million and $541.3$451.3 million at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,
70


2022, respectively, which amounted to 8% and 10% of total assets respectively.for both periods. Refer to "—Financial Condition — Liabilities and Condition—Shareholders' Equity" for discussion regarding the driver for the decreaseincrease in shareholders' equity for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.

Our principal cash requirement is the payment of dividends on our common stock, as and when declared by the Company's Board of Directors. We declared dividends to shareholders in the aggregate amount of $17.6$6.1 million and $16.1$5.9 million for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Company's Board of Directors approves cash dividends on a quarterly basis after careful analysis and consideration of various factors, including the following: (i) capital position relative to total assets, (ii) risk-based assets, (iii) total classified assets, (iv) economic conditions, (v) growth rates for total assets and total liabilities, (vi) earnings performance and projections and (vii) strategic initiatives and related capital requirements. All dividends declared and distributed by the Company will be in compliance with applicable state corporate law and regulatory requirements.
 
We are primarily dependent upon the payment of cash dividends by the Bank, our wholly-owned subsidiary, to service our commitments. We, as the sole shareholder of the Bank, are entitled to dividends, when and as declared by the Bank's Board of Directors from legally available funds. For the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, the Bank declared dividends payable to the Company in the amount of $23.9$6.3 million and $32.8$8.1 million, respectively. Under regulations prescribed by the OCC, the Bank may not declare dividends in excess of the Bank’s net income for the current year plus its retained net income for the prior two years without prior approval from the OCC. If we are required to use dividends from the Bank to service unforeseen commitments in the future, we may be required to reduce the dividends paid to our shareholders going forward.

Please refer to Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements for discussion and details of the Company and Bank's regulatory capital requirements. At September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company and Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements, and the Bank continues to meet the capital requirements to be classified as "well capitalized" under applicable prompt corrective action provisions.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s Board of Directors and management have identified significant risk categories which affect the Company. The risk categories include: credit; liquidity; market; interest rate; capital; operational and technology, including cybersecurity; vendor and third party; people and compensation; compliance and legal; and strategic alignmentalignment; and reputation. The Board of Directors has approved an Enterprise Risk Management ("ERM") Policy that addresses each category of risk. The direct oversight and responsibility for the Company's risk management program has been delegated to the Company's Executive Vice President, Enterprise Risk Management and Chief Risk Officer, who is a member of the Executive Committee and reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer.

TheDuring 2020 and 2021, the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has increased many of the risks that we face,faced, including our credit, operational, vendor and third party, and technology risks. In responseOver the course of 2022, the Company largely experienced a return to a pre-pandemic environment, and experienced minimal business or operational disruption related to the COVID-19 pandemic,pandemic. During 2022, the Company formed the Pandemic Work Groupreevaluated its “return-to-office” strategy that was implemented late in 20202021 and determined to develop and oversee the Company’s response. The Pandemic Work Group: (i) developed employee practices, policies and playbookscontinue to address pandemic related issues; (ii) implemented monitoring of all federal, state and local actions,operate under such as stay-at-home orders, masking mandates and others, so that the Company can comply with all legal requirements; (iii) completed risk assessments and proactive monitoring over critical vendors, along with enhanced cybersecurity monitoring and reporting; (iv) created ongoing assessment and monitoring over employee availability, safety, workloads and access to tools (including technology neededstrategy, which requires certain employees to work from home effectively); (v) oversaw the roll out ofCompany’s offices full-time, and continuepermits others employees to monitor the SBA PPP loan program and temporary loan relief programs; (vi) developed our branch network plan, including determination of which of our branches were to close in order to best allocate resources; (vii) developed a plan for, and oversaw the re-opening of our branches in June 2020, which included ensuring health and safety protocols and practices were in place for our employees and customers; and (viii) completed and implemented the Company's “return-to-office” strategy during the third quarter of 2021, which included certain employees returning to the office full-time, otherswork through a hybrid model (i.e.(i.e., work from home part-time and from one of the Company's physical locations part-time), and others working or to work remotely full-time. The Company's Executive Committee re-assessed its useAs of March 31, 2023, a hybrid model for its employees during the first quarter of 2022 and, at this time, will continue to use such model and govern in accordance with the established policy. The Executive Committee will continue to monitor and assess the related policy and its practice periodically.

The Pandemic Work Group was established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to oversee the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company and its employees. These areas of oversight included, but were not limited to, employee practices and assessment of employee availability, safety and workload. Members of the Pandemic Work Group include the Company’s executive team and other members of senior management. Throughout the pandemic, the

There have been no material changes to the Company's risk categories and risk management policies as described in Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. Please refer to Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 for further details regarding the Company's risk management.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk represents the sensitivity of earnings to changes in market interest rates. As interest rates change, the interest income and expense streams associated with our financial instruments also change, thereby impacting net interest income, the primary component of our earnings. Board ALCO and Management ALCO utilize the results of a detailed and
67


dynamic simulation model to quantify the estimated exposure of net interest income to sustained interest rate changes. While Board ALCO and Management ALCO routinely monitor simulated net interest income sensitivity over a rolling two-year horizon, they also utilize additional tools to monitor potential longer-term interest rate risk.

The simulation model captures the impact of changing interest rates on the interest income received and interest expense paid on all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflected on our consolidated statements of condition, as well as for derivative financial instruments. This sensitivity analysis is compared to ALCO policy limits, which specify a maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure over a one- and two-year horizon, assuming a static balance sheet, given a 200 basis point upward and downward shift in interest rates. Although our policy specifies a downward shift of 200 basis points, this would have resulted in negative rates as of September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, as many deposit and funding rates were below 2.00%. In this case, a downward shift of 100 basis points was the only down scenario performed. A parallel and pro rata shift in rates over a 12-month period is assumed. Using this approach, we are able to produce simulation results that illustrate the effect that both a gradual change of rates and a “rate shock” have on earnings expectations. In the down 100 and 200 basis points scenarios, Federal Funds and Treasury yields are floored at 0.01% while Prime is floored at 3.00%. All other market rates are floored at the lesser of current levels or 0.25%.

The sensitivity analysis below does not represent a forecast and should not be relied upon as being indicative of expected operating results. These hypothetical estimates are based upon numerous assumptions including, among others, the nature and timing of interest rate levels, yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits and reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows. While assumptions are developed based upon current economic and local market conditions, we cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change.

As of September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, our net interest income sensitivity analysis reflected the following changes to net interest income, as compared to our modeled Year 1 Base net interest income, assuming no balance sheet growth and a parallel shift in interest rates. All rate changes were “ramped” over the first 12-month period and then maintained at those levels over the remainder of the ALCO simulation horizon.

If rates remain at or near current levels, net interest income is projected to increase in year two of the simulation. Asset cash flows reprice and replace into the current higher rate environment at rates above current portfolio averages while funding costs remain largely unchanged, causing balance sheet spread to expand.

If rates increase 200 basis points, net interest income is projected to decrease in the first year of the simulation as the funding base adjusts into the higher rate environment to a greater degree than asset yields increase. In the second year, net interest income is projected to increase as loan and investment yields continue to reprice/reset into higher yields and funding cost increases continually slow.

If rates decrease 200 basis points, net interest income is projected to increase slightly in the first year of the simulation as reductions in funding costs are able to more than offset near-term asset yield deterioration. In the second year, net interest income is projected to further improveincrease, however to a lesser degree than the up 200 basis points scenario discussed above, as asset yields are supported by fixed rates and floors while remaining cost of funds reductions are exhausted.continue at a slowing pace and begin to reach assumed floors.

In addition to using our investments portfolio to manage liquidity risk, we also use it to manage our interest rate risk and provide a natural hedge to our interest risk exposure created by loans, deposits and borrowings. Refer to "—Financial Condition—Investments" for further details of the Company's investment portfolio, including the duration of the bond portfolio as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Periodically, if deemed appropriate, we use back-to-back loan swaps, interest rate swaps, floors and caps, which are common derivative financial instruments, to hedge our interest rate risk position. The Board of Directors has approved hedging policy statements governing the use of these instruments. The Board and Management ALCO monitor derivative activities relative to their expectations and our hedging policies. Refer Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of these derivative instruments.
    
LIBOR is a benchmark interest rate for certain floating rate loans, deposits and borrowings, and off-balance sheet exposures of the Company. The administrator of LIBOR has announced that the publication of the most commonly used U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or will cease to be representative after June 30, 2023. The publication of all other LIBOR settings ceased to be provided or ceased to be representative as of December 31, 2021. As such, the Company has an internal project team that is focused on an orderly transition from LIBOR to alternative reference rates. The markets for alternative rates are developing. The Company will continue to assess the use of alternative rates, including SOFR, and expects to transition to alternative rates as the markets and best practices further develop.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s management conducted an evaluation with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer & Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the last fiscal year. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company and its management recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer & Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that they believe the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. We intend to continue to review and document our disclosure controls and procedures, including our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, and we may from time to time make changes to the disclosure controls and procedures to enhance their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
