C&F FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). They do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation), its direct wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens and Farmers Bank (the Bank or C&F Bank) and indirect subsidiaries that are wholly-owned or controlled. Subsidiaries that are less than wholly owned are fully consolidated if they are controlled by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries, and the portion of any subsidiary not owned by the Corporation is reported as noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Corporation owns all of the common stock of C&F Financial Statutory Trust I, C&F Financial Statutory Trust II and Central Virginia Bankshares Statutory Trust I, all of which are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The subordinated debt owed to these trusts is reported as liabilities of the Corporation.  The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to U.S. GAAP and to predominant practices within the banking industry.

Nature of Operations: The Corporation is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Corporation owns all of the stock of its subsidiary, C&F Bank, which is an independent commercial bank chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

C&F Bank has 5 wholly-owned subsidiaries: C&F Mortgage Corporation (C&F Mortgage), C&F Finance Company (C&F Finance), C&F Wealth Management Corporation (C&F Wealth Management), C&F Insurance Services, Inc. and CVB Title Services, Inc., all incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. C&F Mortgage, organized in September 1995, originates and sells residential mortgages, provides mortgage loan origination services to third-party lenders and, through its subsidiary Certified Appraisals LLC, provides ancillary mortgage loan production services for residential appraisals. C&F Mortgage owns a 51 percent interest in C&F Select LLC, which was organized in January 2019 and is also engaged in the business of originating and selling residential mortgages. C&F Finance, acquired in September 2002, is a finance company purchasing automobile, marine and recreational vehicle (RV) loans through indirect lending programs. C&F Wealth Management, organized in April 1995, is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers. C&F Insurance Services, Inc. and CVB Title Services, Inc. were organized for the primary purpose of owning equity interests in an independent insurance agency and a full service title and settlement agency, respectively. Business segment data is presented in Note 10.9.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, impairment of loans and evaluation of goodwill for impairment. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a significant disruption in economic activity worldwide, including in market areas served by the Corporation. Estimates for the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2021 include probable losses relatedReclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the pandemic.  While there have been signals of economic recovery and a resumption of many types of business activity, there remains significant uncertainty involved inprior period financial statements to conform to the measurementcurrent period presentation.  None of these losses.  If economic conditions deterioratereclassifications are considered material and did not affect net income or total equity.

further, then additional provision for loan losses may be required in future periods.  It is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the ultimate financial impact will be to the Corporation.

Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.  None of these reclassifications are considered material.

Business Combination: On January 1, 2020, the Corporation completed the acquisition of Peoples Bankshares, Incorporated (Peoples) and its banking subsidiary, Peoples Community Bank for an aggregate purchase price of $22.19 million of cash and stock.  Additional information about the acquisition is presented in Note 2.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments at fair value as either an other asset or other liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments include (1) interest rate swaps that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges on the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes, (2) interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers and dealer counterparties and (3) interest rate contracts arising from mortgage banking activities, including interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) on mortgage loans and related forward sales of mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities. The gain or loss on the Corporation’s cash flow hedges is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. IRLCs, forward sales contracts and interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are not designated as hedging instruments, and therefore changes in the fair value of these instruments are reported as noninterest income. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are described more fully in Note 12.

Income Taxes: The Corporation’s effective tax rate was 24.2 percent and 21.2 percent for the first three months of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first three months of 2021 was higher than the first three months of 2020 as income before income taxes grew while certain tax benefits, including benefits related to tax-exempt income and share-based compensation, did not.11.

Share-Based Compensation: Share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $511,000 ($365,000 after tax) for restricted stock granted during 2017 through 2022. Share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $392,000 ($287,000 after tax) for restricted stock granted during 2016 through 2021. Share-based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $389,000 ($217,000 after tax) for restricted stock granted during 2015 through 2020. As of March 31, 2021,2022, there was $4.09$3.95 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock that will be recognized over the remaining requisite service periods.

A summary of activity for restricted stock awards during the first three months of 20212022 and 20202021 is presented below:

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” as part of its project on financial instruments. Subsequently, this ASU was amended when the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,” ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief,” ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments—instruments—Credit losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)—Effective dates,” ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842), and ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments and ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” (collectively, ASC 326).  ASC 326 introduces an approach based

9

Table of Contents

on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination.  The new standard will be effective for the Corporation beginning on January 1, 2023.  Early adoption of the new standard is permitted.

The amendments of ASC 326, upon adoption, will be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with the cumulative effect of adopting the new standard being recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Corporation has established a working group to prepare for and implement changes related to ASC 326 and has gathered historical loan loss data for purposes of evaluating appropriate portfolio segmentation and modeling methods under the standard.  The Corporation has performed procedures to validate the historical loan loss data to ensure its suitability and reliability for purposes of developing an estimate of expected credit losses under ASC 326. The Corporation has engaged a vendor to assist in modeling expected lifetime losses under ASC 326, and is continuing to develop and refine an approach to estimating the allowance for credit losses. The adoption of ASC 326 will result in significant changes to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, which may include changes in the level of the allowance for credit losses that will be considered adequate, a reduction in total equity and regulatory capital of C&F Bank, differences in the timing of recognizing changes to the allowance for credit losses and expanded disclosures about the allowance for credit losses. The Corporation has not yet determined an estimate of the effect of these changes. The adoption of the standard will also result in significant changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting related to the allowance for credit losses.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.”  This guidance provides temporary, optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for modifications of loan contracts, borrowings, hedging relationships and other transactions related to reference rate reform associated with the LIBOR transition if certain criteria are met. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, can be adopted at an instrument level. The Corporation expects to apply Topic 848 in the case of modifications to certain loans, borrowings and cash flow hedges during 2022, and that these modifications will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not currently expected to have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Corporation accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition and the common stock of the Corporation issued as consideration were recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, particularly related to the loan portfolio, is inherently subjective and involves significant judgment regarding the methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value.    

The following table presents as of January 1, 2020 the total consideration paid by the Corporation in connection with the acquisition of Peoples, the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting goodwill.

Purchased credit impaired loans - estimated fair value

$

9,259

Fair values of the major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined as follows:

Loans:  The acquired loans were recorded at fair value at the acquisition date without carryover of People's allowance for loan losses. The fair value of the loans was determined using market participant assumptions in estimating the amount and timing of both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and then discounting those cash flows based on a discount rate that would be required by a market participant. In this regard, the acquired loans were segregated into pools based on loan type and credit risk. Loan type was determined based on collateral type, loan purpose and loan structure. Credit risk characteristics included risk rating groups (pass rated loans and adversely classified loans), updated loan-to-value ratios and lien position, and past loan performance. For valuation purposes, these pools were further disaggregated by maturity and pricing characteristics (e.g., fixed-rate, adjustable-rate, balloon maturities).

Core Deposit Intangible: The fair value of the CDI was determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis using a discount rate based on the estimated cost of equity capital for a market participant. To calculate cash flows, deposit account servicing costs (net of deposit fee income) and interest expense on deposits were compared to the cost of alternative funding sources available through the FHLB. The life of the deposit base and projected deposit attrition rates were determined using Peoples’ historical deposit data. The CDI was estimated at $1.71 million or 1.8% of non-maturity deposits.

Deposits:  The fair value adjustment of deposits represents a premium over the value of the contractual repayments of fixed-maturity deposits using prevailing market interest rates for similar term certificates of deposit. The resulting estimated fair value adjustment of certificates of deposit ranging in maturity from three months to five years is a $557,000 premium and is being amortized into income over a period of two years.

There were 106390 debt securities totaling $118.27$350.29 million of aggregate fair value considered temporarily impaired at March 31, 2021.2022. The primary cause of the temporary impairments in the Corporation’s investments in debt securities was fluctuationsincreases in market interest rates. The Corporation concluded that no other-than-temporary impairment existed in its securities portfolio at March 31, 2021,2022, and 0 other-than-temporary impairment loss has been recognized in net income, based primarily on the fact that changes in fair value were caused primarily by fluctuations in interest rates, there were 0 securities with unrealized losses that were significant relative to their carrying amounts, 0 securities have been in an unrealized loss position continuously for more than 12 months, securities with unrealized losses had generally high credit quality, the Corporation intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more-likely-than-not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of its investment, and issuers have continued to make timely payments of principal and interest. Additionally, the Corporation’s mortgage-backed securities are entirely issued by either U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises.  Collectively, these entities provide a guarantee, which is either explicitly or implicitly supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, that investors in such mortgage-backed securities will receive timely principal and interest payments.

The Corporation’s investment in restricted stock totaled $1.03$1.12 million at March 31, 20212022 and consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)FHLB stock.  Restricted stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment, which is carried at cost because there is no market for the stock other than the FHLBs. Therefore, when evaluating restricted stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing any temporary decline in value. The Corporation did not consider its investment in restricted stock to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 20212022 and 0 impairment has been recognized.

NOTE 9:8: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. U.S. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:

 

Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities.

 

Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3—Valuation is determined using model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Corporation’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the respective asset or liability. Valuation techniques may include the use of pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

 

U.S. GAAP allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value (the fair value option) for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis.  The Corporation has elected to use fair value accounting for its entire portfolio of loans held for sale (LHFS).

 

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

 

Securities available for sale. The Corporation primarily values its investment portfolio using Level 2 fair value measurements, but may also use Level 1 or Level 3 measurements if required by the composition of the portfolio. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Corporation’s entire investment securities portfolio was comprised of

2221

Table of Contents

March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Corporation’s entire investment securities portfolio was comprised of securities available for sale, which were valued using Level 2 fair value measurements. The Corporation has contracted with third party portfolio accounting service vendors for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendors’ sources for security valuation are ICE Data Services (ICE) and Thomson Reuters Pricing Service (TRPS).  Each source provides opinions, known as evaluated prices, as to the value of individual securities based on model-based pricing techniques that are partially based on available market data, including prices for similar instruments in active markets and prices for identical assets in markets that are not active. ICE provides evaluated prices for the Corporation’s obligations of states and political subdivisions category of securities.  ICE uses proprietary pricing models and pricing systems, mathematical tools and judgment to determine an evaluated price for a security based upon a hierarchy of market information regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  TRPS provides evaluated prices for the Corporation’s U.S. government agencies and corporations, mortgage-backed, and corporate categories of securities.  Fixed-rate callable securities of the U.S. government agencies and corporations category are individually evaluated on an option adjusted spread basis for callable issues or on a nominal spread basis incorporating the term structure of agency market spreads and the appropriate risk free benchmark curve for non-callable issues.  Pass-through mortgage-backed securities (MBS) in the mortgage-backed category are grouped into aggregate categories defined by issuer program, weighted average coupon, and weighted average maturity.  Each aggregate is benchmarked to relative to-be-announced mortgage-backed securities (TBA securities) or other benchmark prices. TBA securities prices are obtained from market makers and live trading systems. Collateralized mortgage obligations in the mortgage-backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.  Each evaluation is determined using an option adjusted spread and prepayment model based on volatility-driven, multi-dimensional spread tables. Fixed-rate securities issued by the Small Business Association in the mortgage backed category are individually evaluated based upon a hierarchy of security specific information and market data regarding that security or securities with similar characteristics.

Investments in small business investment company funds.Other investments. The Corporation holds an investmentequity investments in afunds that provide debt and equity financing to small business investment company fund, which isbusinesses. These investments are recorded at fair value and included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in fair value are recognized in net income.  The funds are managed by investment companies, and the net asset value of each fund is reported regularly by the investment companies. At March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the fair value of the Corporation’s investment in small business investment companies,these investments, based on net asset value, was $1.44$2.50 million and $1.48$1.47 million, respectively.  Investments in small business investment company fundsThese investments, measured at net asset value, are not presented in the tables below related to fair value measurements. Changes in fair value of small business investment company fundsthese investments resulted in the recognition of unrealized gains of $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and unrealized gains of $45,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.  There were 0 unrealized gains or losses on investments in small business investment company funds recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

  

Loans held for sale. Fair value of the Corporation’s LHFS is based on observable market prices for similar instruments traded in the secondary mortgage loan markets in which the Corporation conducts business. The Corporation’s portfolio of LHFS is classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset - IRLCs. The Corporation recognizes IRLCs at fair value. Fair value of IRLCs is based on either (i) the price of the underlying loans obtained from an investor for loans that will be delivered on a best efforts basis or (ii) the observable price for individual loans traded in the secondary market for loans that will be delivered on a mandatory basis. All of the Corporation’s IRLCs are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – interest rate swaps on loans. The Corporation recognizes interest rate swaps at fair value.  The Corporation has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for these interest rate swaps using standard valuation techniques. All of the Corporation’s interest rate swaps on loans are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – cash flow hedges. The Corporation recognizes cash flow hedges at fair value. The fair value of the Corporation’s cash flow hedges is determined using the discounted cash flow method.  All of the Corporation’s cash flow hedges are classified as Level 2.

Derivative asset/liability – forward sales of TBA securities. The Corporation recognizes forward sales of TBA securities at fair value. The fair value of forward sales of TBA securities is based on prices obtained from market makers and live trading systems for TBA securities of similar issuer programs, coupons and maturities. All of the Corporation’s forward sales of TBA securities are classified as Level 2.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Corporation may be required, from time to time, to measure and recognize certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following describes the valuation techniques and inputs used by the Corporation in determining the fair value of certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Impaired loans. The Corporation does not record loans held for investment at fair value on a recurring basis. However, there are instances when a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. The Corporation measures impairment either based on the fair value of the loan using the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, or using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, which is not a fair value measurement. The Corporation maintains a valuation allowance to the extent that this measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. When an impaired loan is measured at fair value based solely on observable market prices or a current appraisal without further adjustment for unobservable inputs, the Corporation records the impaired loan as a nonrecurring fair value measurement classified as Level 2. However, if based on management’s review, additional discounts to observed market prices or appraisals are required or if observable inputs are not available, the Corporation records the impaired loan as a nonrecurring fair value measurement classified as Level 3.

Impaired loans that are measured based on expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate rather than the market rate of interest, are not recorded at fair value and are therefore excluded from fair value disclosure requirements.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO). Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. Initial fair value is based upon appraisals the Corporation obtains from independent licensed appraisers. Subsequent to foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations of the foreclosed assets based on updated appraisals, general market conditions, recent sales of similar properties, length of time the properties have been held, and our ability and intent with regard to continued ownership of the properties. The Corporation may incur additional write-downs of foreclosed assets to fair value less estimated costs to sell if valuations indicate a further deterioration in market conditions. As such, the Corporation records OREO as a nonrecurring fair value measurement classified as Level 3.

The following table presents the balances of assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. At March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 there were 0 impaired loans and 0 OREO that were measured at fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Corporation. The Corporation uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The Corporation assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) in the normal course of operations. As a result, the fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Corporation. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to balance minimizing interest rate risk and increasing net interest income in current market conditions. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do

so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors interest rates, maturities and repricing dates of assets and liabilities and attempts to manage interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans, deposits and borrowings and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Corporation’s overall interest rate risk.

NOTE 10:9: Business Segments

The Corporation operates in a decentralized fashion in 3 business segments: community banking, mortgage banking and consumer finance. Beginning with the first quarter of 2021, theThe community banking segment comprises C&F Bank and C&F Wealth Management. Revenues from community banking operations consist primarily of net interest income related to investments in loans and securities and outstanding deposits and borrowings, fees earned on deposit accounts and debit card interchange activity, and net revenues from offering wealth management services and insurance products through third-party service providers. Mortgage banking operating revenues consist principally of gains on sales of loans in the secondary market, mortgage banking fee income related to loan originations, fees earned by providing mortgage loan origination functions to third-party lenders, and net interest income on mortgage loans held for sale. Revenues from consumer finance consist primarily of net interest income earned on purchased retail installment sales contracts.

The Corporation’s revenues and expenses are comprised primarily of interest expense associated with the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes and subordinated debt, general corporate expenses, and changes in the value of the rabbi trust and deferred compensation liability related to its nonqualified deferred compensation plan.  The results of the Corporation, which includes funding and operating costs that are not allocated to the business segments, are included in the column labeled “Other” in the tables below.

The community banking segment extends 2 warehouse lines of credit to the mortgage banking segment, providing a portion of the funds needed to originate mortgage loans. The community banking segment charges the mortgage banking segment interest at the daily FHLB advance rate plus a spread ranging from 50 basis points to 175 basis points. The community banking segment also provides the consumer finance segment with a portion of the funds needed to purchase loan contracts by means of variable rate notes that carry interest at one-month LIBOR plus 200 basis points, with a floor of 3.5 percent, and fixed rate notes that carry interest at rates ranging from 2.2 percent to 8.0 percent. The community banking segment acquires certain residential real estate loans from the mortgage banking segment at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals. In addition to unallocated expenses recorded by the holding company, certain overhead costs are incurred by the community banking segment and are not allocated to the mortgage banking and consumer finance segments.

 

NOTE 11:10: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, including loan commitments and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.  Collateral is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer.

Loan commitments are agreements to extend credit to a customer provided that there are no violations of the terms of the contract prior to funding. Commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the customer. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of loan commitments at the Bank was $318.95$303.06 million at

27

Table of Contents

March 31, 20212022 and $326.98$305.37 million at December 31, 2020,2021, which does not include IRLCs at the mortgage banking segment, which are discussed in Note 12.11.

Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The total contract amount of standby letters of credit, whose contract amounts represent credit risk, was $15.55$14.37 million at March 31, 20212022 and $19.07$15.11 million at December 31, 2020.2021.

The mortgage banking segment sells substantially all of the residential mortgage loans it originates to third-party investors. As is customary in the industry, the agreements with these investors require the mortgage banking segment to extend representations and warranties with respect to program compliance, borrower misrepresentation, fraud, and early payment performance. Under the agreements, the investors are entitled to make loss claims and repurchase requests of the mortgage banking segment for loans that contain covered deficiencies. The mortgage banking segment has obtained early payment default recourse waivers for a significant portion of its business. Recourse periods for early payment default for the

29

Table of Contents

remaining investors vary from 90 days up to one year. Recourse periods for borrower misrepresentation or fraud, or underwriting error do not have a stated time limit. The mortgage banking segment maintains an allowance for indemnifications that represents management’s estimate of losses that are probable of arising under these recourse provisions. As performance data for loans that have been sold is not made available to the mortgage banking segment by the investors, the estimate of potential losses is inherently subjective and is based on historical indemnification payments and management’s assessment of current conditions that may contribute to indemnified losses on mortgage loans that have been sold in the secondary market.  For the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, the Corporation recorded $17,000 and $7,000a reversal of provision for indemnifications respectively.of $583,000 and recorded a provision for indemnifications of $17,000,  respectively, which is included in “Noninterest Expenses – Other” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. NaN indemnification payments were made during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021. The allowance for indemnifications was $3.37$2.67 million at March 31, 20212022 and $3.36$3.25 million at December 31, 2020.2021.

 

NOTE 12:11: Derivative Financial Instruments

The Corporation uses derivative financial instruments primarily to manage risks to the Corporation associated with changing interest rates, and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. The Corporation designates certain interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in qualifying cash flow hedges.  The changes in fair value of these designated hedging instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income.  Derivative contracts that are not designated in a qualifying hedging relationship include customer accommodation loan swaps and contracts related to mortgage banking activities.

Cash flow hedges.  The Corporation designates interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows on variable rate borrowings such as the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes. These interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments that manage the risk of variability in cash flows by exchanging variable-rate interest payments on a notional amount of the Corporation’s borrowings for fixed-rate interest payments.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are expected to be highly effective in offsetting the effect of changes in interest rates on the amount of variable-rate interest payments, and the Corporation assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship quarterly. If the Corporation determines that a cash flow hedge is no longer highly effective, future changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument would be reported in earnings. As of March 31, 2021,2022, the Corporation has designated cash flow hedges to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows on certain variable rate borrowings for periods that end between June 2024 and June 2029.

 

All interest rate swaps were entered into with counterparties that met the Corporation’s credit standards and the agreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these derivative contracts is not significant.

Unrealized gains or losses recorded in other comprehensive income related to cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. When a designated hedging instrument is terminated and the hedged interest payments remain probable of occurring, any remaining unrecognized gain or loss in other comprehensive income is reclassified into earnings in the period(s) during which the forecasted interest

28

Table of Contents

payments affect earnings.  Amounts reclassified into earnings and interest receivable or payable under designated interest rate swaps are reported in interest expense.  The Corporation does not expect any unrealized losses related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve months.  

Loan swaps.  The Bank also enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Bank simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and offsetting terms. The net result of these interest rate swaps is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. These back-to-back loan swaps are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in “other assets” and “other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in the fair value of loan swaps are recorded in other noninterest income and sum to 0 because of the offsetting terms of swaps with borrowers and swaps with dealer counterparties.

Mortgage banking.  The mortgage banking segment enters into IRLCs with customers to originate loans for which the interest rates are determined (or “locked”) prior to funding. The mortgage banking segment is exposed to interest rate risk through fixed-rate IRLCs and mortgage loans from the time that interest rates are locked until the loans are sold in the secondary market. The mortgage banking segment mitigates this interest rate risk by either (1) entering into forward sales

30

Table of Contents

contracts with investors at the time that interest rates are locked for mortgage loans to be delivered on a best efforts basis or (2) entering into forward sales contracts for TBA securities until it can enter into forward sales contracts with investors for mortgage loans to be delivered on a mandatory basis. IRLCs, forward sales of loans and forward sales of TBA securities are derivative financial instruments and are reported at fair value in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Changes in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives are recorded as a component of gains on sales of loans.

At March 31, 2021,2022, the mortgage banking segment had $181.07$103.51 million of IRLCs and $161.85$45.36 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $342.92 million in mortgage loans.  Also at March 31, 2021, the mortgage banking segment had $11.39 million of IRLCs and $8.97 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using forward sales of $11.25 million of TBA securities and mandatory-delivery forward sales contracts for $7.62$148.87 million in mortgage loans.  

At December 31, 2020,2021, the mortgage banking segment had $190.96$80.59 million of IRLCs and $200.88$72.24 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $391.84$152.83 million in mortgage loans.  Also at December 31, 2020,2021, the mortgage banking segment had $7.67$2.82 million of IRLCs and $5.63$7.40 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using forward sales of $8.00$9.25 million of TBA securities and mandatory-delivery forward sales contracts for $3.94$1.01 million in mortgage loans.

The following tables summarize key elements of the Corporation’s derivative instruments other than forward sales of mortgage loans.  The fair values of forward sales of mortgage loans were not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation at March 31, 20212022 or December 31, 2020.2021.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion supplements and provides information about the major components of the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of the Corporation. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition to current and historical information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to our future business, financial condition or results of operations. For a description of certain factors that may have a significant impact on our future business, financial condition or results of operations, see “Cautionary Statement About Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion and analysis.

OVERVIEW

Our primary financial goals are to maximize the Corporation’s earnings and to deploy capital in profitable growth initiatives that will enhance long-term shareholder value. We track three primary financial performance measures in order to assess the level of success in achieving these goals: (1) return on average assets (ROA), (2) return on average equity (ROE), and (3) growth in earnings.  In addition to these financial performance measures, we track the performance of the Corporation’s three business segments:  community banking, mortgage banking, and consumer finance.  We also actively manage our capital through growth, dividends and share repurchases, while considering the need to maintain a strong capital position.

The following table presents selected financial performance highlights for the periods indicated:

Capital Management and Dividends

Total equity was $198.7$201.3 million at March 31, 2021,2022, compared to $194.5$211.0 million at December 31, 2020.2021. Under regulatory capital standards, the Corporation’s tier 1 capital and total capital ratios at March 31, 20212022 were 12.913.1 percent and 15.715.8 percent, respectively, compared to 12.513.0 percent and 15.215.8 percent, respectively, at December 31, 2020. Capital growth resulted primarily from earnings for the first quarter of 2021, which was partially offset by cash dividends declared of $0.38 per share during the first quarter of 2021. At March 31, 2021,2022, the book value per share of the Corporation’s common stock was $53.78,$56.57, and tangible book value per share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was $46.34,$48.93, compared to $52.80$59.32 and $45.32,$51.66, respectively, at December 31, 2020.  2021.  

Total consolidated equity decreased $9.7 million at March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021, due primarily to unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale of $14.7 million (net of tax), which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income, partially offset by net income.  The Corporation’s securities available for sale are fixed income debt securities, and their decline in market value during the first quarter of 2022 was a result of increases in market interest rates. The Corporation expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest, and unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Corporation or the Bank.

For the first quarter of 2021,2022, the Corporation’s 40 cents per share cash dividend equated to a payout ratio of 19.825.2 percent of earnings per share. The Board of Directors of the Corporation continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital levels and requirements and expected future earnings. In making its decision on the payment of dividends on the Corporation’s common stock, the Corporation’s Board of Directors considers operating results, financial condition, capital adequacy, regulatory requirements, shareholder returns, and other factors.

The Corporation has a share repurchase program that was authorized by the Board of Directors in November 20202021 to repurchase up to 365,000 shares$10.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock through November 30, 2021.  There were no repurchases2022.  During the first quarter of 2022, the Corporation repurchased 9,717 shares, or $493,000, of its common stock under the Corporation’s share repurchase program for the first quarter of 2021.  

COVID-19 Pandemic

New infections of COVID-19 continue to be a public health concern in our market areas.  While over 140 million U.S. adults have received at least one dose of an authorized COVID-19 vaccine and many businesses and consumers have begun to resume activities that had been suspended during the pandemic, the strength of the economic recovery remains uncertain. Government stimulus measures, such as economic impact payments, PPP loans and enhanced unemployment benefits, may not continue or may not be effective at supporting the economy. The U.S. unemployment rate remained elevated at 6.0 percent in March 2021, and many workers who decided to leave the labor force during the pandemic have not returned. The Corporation has continued to serve our customers and communities throughout the pandemic, and with enhanced health and safety measures in place our branch lobbies have been fully open to the public since September 2020 and a majority of our employees are at work in our offices. As of March 31, 2021, we have originated over 1,800 PPP loans totaling nearly $135.0 million, and have provided modified payment terms on loans with aggregate balances of over $100.0

million, of which over three quarters have either resumed payments or have been paid off. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we increased our allowance for loan losses by adding reserves of approximately $8.0 million based on qualitative adjustments related to the pandemic.  We continue to carefully monitor the pandemic and its impact on our market areas, our customers and our employees, and we believe that the pandemic continues to present risks of elevated loan losses, sustained net interest margin compression and falling demand for loans; however, at this time we cannot determine the ultimate impact of the pandemic on the results of operations of the Corporation.  As of March 31, 2021, we have maintained the qualitative adjustments to the allowance for loan losses recorded during 2020 and believe that our allowance for loan losses will be adequate to absorb probable losses that are inherent in our loan portfolio. If loan losses ultimately are not realized to the extent of the reserves provided for during the pandemic, our allowance for loan losses may be reduced in future periods through negative provisions for loan losses, which could benefit our results of operations for any such future period.  However, a resurgence in COVID-19 cases, weaker than expected consumer spending or a reduction in government stimulus prior to a recovery in employment could adversely impact our loan loss experience and therefore our results of operations in future periods.program.  

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIESESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Those accounting policies with the greatest uncertainty and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments affecting the application of these policies, and the greatest likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions, or using different assumptions, are described below.

Allowance for Loan Losses: We establish the allowance for loan losses through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when we believe that the collection of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries of losses previously charged against the allowance are credited to the allowance. The allowance represents an amount that, in our judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans while taking into consideration such factors as trends in delinquencies and charge-offs for relevant periods of time, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and the value of collateral, overall portfolio quality and review of specific potential losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective because it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.  In evaluating the level of the allowance, we consider a range of possible assumptions and outcomes related to the various factors identified above. Under alternative assumptions that we considered in developing our estimate of an allowance that will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2022, our estimate of the allowance varied between $36 million and $41 million. 

Impairment of Loans: We consider a loan impaired when it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all interest and principal payments as scheduled in the loan agreement. We do not consider a loan impaired during a period of delay in payment if we expect the ultimate collection of all amounts due. We measure impairment on a loan-by-loan basis based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance

33

Table of Contents

homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. We maintain a valuation allowance to the extent that the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. All troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) are also considered impaired loans and are evaluated individually. A TDR occurs when we agree to significantly modify the original terms of a loan by granting a concession due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower.  For more information see the section titled “Asset Quality” within this Item 2.

Loans Acquired in a Business Combination:  Acquired loans are classified as either (i) purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans or (ii) purchased performing loans and are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition.

PCI loans are those for which there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Corporation will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. When determining fair value, PCI loans are aggregated into pools of loans based on common risk characteristics as of the date of acquisition such as loan type, date of origination, and evidence of credit quality deterioration such as internal risk grades and past due and nonaccrual status. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the “nonaccretable difference.” Any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the “accretable yield” and is recognized as interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows.

35

Table of Contents

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate our estimate of cash flows expected to be collected on PCI loans. Estimates of cash flows for PCI loans require significant judgment. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will generally result in a provision for loan losses resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent significant increases in cash flows may result in a reversal of post-acquisition provision for loan losses or a transfer from nonaccretable difference to accretable yield that increases interest income over the remaining life of the loan or pool(s) of loans. Disposals of loans, which may include sale of loans to third parties, receipt of payments in full or in part from the borrower or foreclosure of the collateral, result in removal of the loan from the PCI loan portfolio at its carrying amount.

PCI loans are not classified as nonperforming loans by the Corporation at the time they are acquired, regardless of whether they had been classified as nonperforming by the previous holder of such loans, and they will not be classified as nonperforming so long as, at quarterly re-estimation periods, we believe we will fully collect the new carrying value of the pools of loans.

The Corporation accounts for purchased performing loans using the contractual cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion based on the acquired loans’ contractual cash flows. Purchased performing loans are recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. The fair value discount is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the estimated lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for purchased performing loans. A provision for loan losses may be required for any deterioration in these loans in future periods.

Goodwill: The Corporation's goodwill was recognized in connection with past business combinations and is reported at the community banking segment and the consumer finance segment. The Corporation reviews the carrying value of goodwill at least annually or more frequently if certain impairment indicators exist. In testing goodwill for impairment, the Corporation may first consider qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then no further testing is required and the goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the Corporation elects to bypass the qualitative assessment or if we conclude that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value to determine whether an impairment exists. In the last evaluation of goodwill at the community banking segment and the consumer finance segment, which was the annual evaluation in the fourth quarter of 2020,2021, the Corporation concluded that no impairment existed. Dependingexisted based on the severity and durationan assessment of the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and their impact on the Corporation, management may conclude in a future period that goodwill has become impaired.qualitative factors.

Income Taxes: Determining the Corporation’s effective tax rate requires judgment. The Corporation’s net deferred tax asset is determined annually based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. In addition, there may be transactions and

calculations for which the ultimate tax outcomes are uncertain and the Corporation’s tax returns are subject to audit by various tax authorities. Although we believe that estimates related to income taxes are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome will not be materially different than that which is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

For further information concerning accounting policies, refer to Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” under the heading “Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

The following table shows the average balance sheets, the amounts of interest earned on earning assets, with related yields, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, with related rates, for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020.

2021.  Loans include loans held for sale. Loans placed on a nonaccrual status are included in the balances and are included in the computation of yields, but had no material effect. Accretion and amortization of fair value purchase adjustments related to business combinations are included in the computation of yields on loans and investments and on the costs of deposits and borrowings. The accretion contributed approximately 14 basis points and 10 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022, and 7 basis points to both the yield on total earning assets and net interest margin for the first quarter of 2022, compared to approximately 26 basis points and 18 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2021, and 14 basis points to both the yield on total earning assets and net interest margin, for the first quarter of 2021, compared2021.  The yield on loans includes, with respect to PPP loans, interest at a note rate of one percent as well as net deferred origination fees that are amortized based on the contractual maturity of the related loan or accelerated into interest income upon repayment of the loan.  Accretion of net PPP origination fees contributed approximately 5217 basis points and 3712 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022, and 288 basis points to both the yield on totalinterest earning assets and the net interest margin for the first quarter of 2020.2022, compared to approximately 34 basis points and 23 basis points to the yields on community banking segment loans and total loans, respectively, for the first quarter of 2021, and 18 basis points to both the yield on interest earning assets and net interest margin for the first quarter of  2021.  Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Interest income and expense are affected by fluctuations in interest rates, by changes in the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and by the interaction of rate and volume factors. The following table shows the direct causes of the period-to-period changes in the components of net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis. The Corporation calculates the rate and volume variances using a formula prescribed by the SEC. Rate/volume variances, the third element in the calculation, are not shown separately in the table, but are allocated to the rate and volume variances in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of each.

The decrease in net income of $1.5 millionthe mortgage banking segment for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in mortgage banking segment quarterly net income2022 compared to the first quarter of $1.0 million2021 was due primarily to higher gains on sales of loans as a result of higher margins on loans originated for resale, higher fee income as a result of higher(1) lower volume of mortgage loan originations and highermortgage lender services volume, and higher net interest income due to higher average balances(2) lower margins on sales of mortgage loans, heldpartially offset by a reversal of provision for sale.  Partially offsetting these factors were higher expenses, primarily tied to loan production, including salaries and employee benefits expense, loan processing expense,indemnification losses, which is included in other expenses, and data processing expense.in the first quarter of 2022.

Gains on sales of loans, while driven in part by mortgage loan originations, also includes the effects of changes in locked loan commitments, which reflectsreflect the volume of mortgage loan applications that are in process and have not closed. Locked loan commitments increased by $20.1 million during the first quarter of 2022 and decreased by $6.2 million during the first quarter of 2021.  Locked loan commitments were $103.5 million at March 31, 2022, compared to $83.4 million at December 31, 2021 and $192.5 million at March 31, 2021. Mortgage lender services fee income is derived from providing mortgage origination functions to third-party mortgage lenders for a fee. Mortgage lender services volume decreased for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 as a result of lower mortgage industry volume.

During the first quarter of 2022, the mortgage banking segment recorded a reversal of provisions for indemnification losses of $583,000, compared to provision for indemnification losses of $17,000 in the first quarter of 2021 and grew by $170.1 million2021.  The release of indemnification reserves in the first quarter of 2020.  Locked loan commitments were $192.5 million at March 31, 2021, compared2022 was due primarily to $198.7 million at December 31,improvement in the mortgage banking segment’s assessment of borrower payment performance and other factors affecting expected losses on mortgage loans sold in the secondary market.  The mortgage banking segment increased reserves for indemnification losses during 2020 based on widespread forbearance on mortgage loans and $245.2 million at March 31, 2020.economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  To date, the mortgage banking segment has not made any payments for indemnification losses since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and management believes that the indemnification reserve is sufficient to absorb losses related to loans that have been sold in the secondary market.

Provision for loan losses increased as a result of significant loan growth in 2022, partially offset by a release of reserves related to continued improvement in loan performance. The consumer finance segment has experienced loan performance since 2020 that has been stronger than periods prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, that increased provision for loan lossesresulting in part from the first quarter of 2020. Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is sufficientconsumer finance segment continuing to absorb losses inherentpurchase higher quality loans, and in the portfolio.  However, if there are further challengespart from government stimulus measures in response to the economic recovery, includingpandemic that benefitted borrowers. Additionally, a resurgencestrong used car market has continued to mitigate the losses realized upon repossession and sale of automobiles. If loan performance deteriorates resulting in COVID-19 cases, weaker than expected consumer spendingelevated delinquencies or a reduction in government stimulus prior to a recovery in employment, additionalnet charge-offs, or if values of used vehicles decline, provision for loan losses may be requiredincrease in future periods.

In April 2021, the consumer finance segment relocated its headquarters to a newly constructed office that it owns, and exited its prior leased office space.  Beginning with the second quarter of 2021, the consumer finance segment expects to realize cost savings in occupancy expense related to the headquarters relocation.

ASSET QUALITY

The allowance for loan losses represents an amount that, in our judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses increases the allowance, and loans charged off, net of recoveries, reduce the allowance.

Loans by credit quality indicators are presented in Table 1012 below.  The characteristics of these loan ratings are as follows:

Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio.  The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue.  When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan.

Special mention loans have a specific identified weakness in the borrower’s operations and in the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history may be characterized by late payments.  The Corporation’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan.  The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable.

Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Corporation’s credit extension.  The payment history for the loan has been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan.  The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Corporation.  There is a distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet the Corporation’s definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due.

Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a nonaccrual classification because it is probable that the Corporation will not be able to collect all amounts due.

Table of Contents

Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently

existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high.
Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off.

Nonperforming assets of the community banking segment totaled $3.9 million$118,000 at March 31, 2021 and2022 compared to $3.2 million at December 31, 2020.2021. Nonperforming assets consisted of $118,000 in nonaccrual loans at March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020 consisted of $3.0$2.4 million in nonaccrual loans and $907,000$835,000 in OREO.  NonaccrualOREO at December 31, 2021.  The decrease in nonaccrual loans were comprised primarily of one commercial relationship at March 31, 2021 and2022 as compared to December 31, 2020.2021 was primarily due to the resolution of certain impaired loans during the first quarter of 2022.  

At March 31, 2022, the allowance for loan losses at the community banking segment decreased to $14.1 million, compared to $14.8 million at December 31, 2021.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at the community banking segment, excluding PCI loans, at March 31, 20212022 decreased to 1.431.36 percent, compared to 1.461.44 percent at December 31, 2020.2021.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans excluding all purchased loans and loans originated under the PPP was 1.73decreased to 1.45 percent at March 31, 2021,2022, compared to 1.741.55 percent at December 31, 2020.  As2021, due primarily to the resolution of March 31, 2021, the community banking segment maintained reserves that were added during 2020 based oncertain impaired loans, which resulted in no losses being realized, and a reduction of certain qualitative adjustments to reserves related to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020, therepandemic, as losses have so far not been significant changes in the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio, although management believes that the effects of PPP loans and government stimulus may be delaying signs of credit deterioration.  At March 31, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020, the allowance for loan losses remained unchanged at $15.0 million.  Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio.  However, if there are further challengesrealized to the economic recovery, including a resurgence in COVID-19 cases or weaker than expected consumer spending, additional provision for loan losses may be required in future periods.extent initially expected.

Nonaccrual loans at the consumer finance segment were $182,000$318,000 at March 31, 2021,2022, compared to $402,000$380,000 at December 31, 2020.2021. Nonaccrual consumer finance loans remain low relative to the allowance for loan losses and the total consumer finance loan portfolio because the consumer finance segment generally initiates repossession of loan collateral once a loan becomes more than 60 days delinquent.delinquent and due to improvement in loan performance.  Repossessed vehicles of the consumer finance segment are classified as other assets and consist only of vehicles the Corporation has the legal right to sell.  Prior to the reclassification from loans to repossessed vehicles, the difference between the carrying amount of each loan and the fair value of each vehicle (i.e. the deficiency) is charged against the allowance for loan losses. At March 31, 2021,2022, repossessed vehicles available for sale totaled $156,000,$165,000, compared to $291,000$190,000 at December 31, 2020.2021.

quarter of 2022 of 0.04 percent of average total loans, compared to net charge-offs of 0.51 percent for the first quarter of 2021. The decline in the net charge-off ratio for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 reflects a lower number of charge-offs during 2022 and lower losses per loan charged off as a result of a strong used car market.  The consumer finance segment has experienced loan performance since 2020 that has been stronger than periods prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in part from the consumer finance segment continuing to purchase higher quality loans, and in part from government stimulus measures in response to the pandemic that benefitted borrowers.  At March 31, 2022, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans decreasedwas 1.71 percent, compared to 2.16 percent at December 31, 2021 and 1.56 percent at March 31, 2021 compared2021.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 3.086.33 percent at March 31, 2022 from 6.73 percent at December 31, 20202021, primarily as a result of improving credit quality of the portfolio, which has resulted in lower net charge-offs, and 3.38 percenta reduction of certain qualitative adjustments to reserves related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as losses have so far not been realized to the extent initially expected.

The consumer finance segment at March 31, 2020.times offers payment deferrals to borrowers as a portfolio management technique to achieve higher ultimate cash collections on select loan accounts. Average amounts of payment deferrals on a monthly basis, which are not included in delinquent loans, were 1.161.50 percent and 2.521.16 percent as a percentage of average non-prime automobile loans outstanding for the first quarter of 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively.  The consumer finance segment at times offers payment deferrals to borrowers as a portfolio management technique. The consumer finance segment’s annualized net charge-off ratio for the first quarter of 2021 decreased to 0.51 percent from 2.81 percent for the first quarter of 2020 due to a lower number of charge-offs during the first quarter of 2021 as a result of improvement in loan performance and lower losses per loan charged off as a result of a strong used car market. Improvement in loan performance has resulted from the consumer finance segment continuing to purchase higher quality loans, including marine and RV loans, as well as borrowers benefitting from the government’s stimulus measures in response to the pandemic. The Corporation can give no assurance as to the continuation of government stimulus measures or the extent to which they will be effective. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans decreased to 7.37 percent at March 31, 2021, compared to 7.53 percent at December 31, 2020. The decrease in the level of the allowance for

loan losses as a percentage of total loans is primarily a result of lower net charge-offs.  Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio.  However, if there are further challenges to the economic recovery, including a resurgence in COVID-19 cases, weaker than expected consumer spending or a reduction in government stimulus prior to a recovery in employment, additional provision for loan losses may be required in future periods.

Impaired Loans

We measure impaired loans either based on fair value of the loan using the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, or using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, which is not a fair value measurement.rate. We maintain a valuation allowance to the extent that the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. TDRs occur when we agree to significantly modify the original terms of a loan by granting a concession due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. These concessions typically are made for loss mitigation purposes and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. TDRs are considered impaired loans.

The decrease in the recorded investment in impaired loans and the related allowance at March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 is due primarily to the resolution of certain loans in the first quarter of 2022, which resulted in no losses being realized.

TDRs at March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 were as follows:

1Included in nonaccrual loans in Table 11:14: Nonperforming Assets.
2Included in impaired loans in Table 12:14: Nonperforming Assets and Table 15: Impaired Loans.

While TDRs are considered impaired loans, not all TDRs are on nonaccrual status.  If a loan was on nonaccrual status at the time of the TDR modification, the loan will remain on nonaccrual status following the modification and may be returned to accrual status based on the Corporation’s policy for returning loans to accrual status. If a loan was accruing prior to being modified as a TDR and if management concludes that the borrower is able to make such modified payments, and there are no other factors or circumstances that would cause management to conclude otherwise, the TDR will remain on an accruing status.

The Corporation has accommodated certain borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic by granting short-term payment deferrals or periods of interest-only payments. Generally, a short-term payment deferral does not result in a loan modification being classified as a TDR. Furthermore, certain modifications are not required to be evaluated for classification as a TDR under statutory and regulatory relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic. There were no modifications offered during the first quarter of 2021 which were not evaluated for classification as a TDR. The Corporation has granted loan modifications related to COVID-19 on aggregate balances of $103.6 million since the beginning of the pandemic. At March 31, 2021, loans whose modification periods had not ended had aggregate balances of $23.5 million and all such loans are performing in accordance with their modified terms, which includes payments of interest. Management monitors the credit risk related to these loans and has adjusted risk ratings as applicable as of March 31, 2021. Management cannot predict the overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its loan portfolio or the extent of payment deferrals or other modifications that may be granted. Depending on the severity and duration of the economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Corporation may experience an increase in delinquencies that may lead to further loan modifications, including loan modifications that may be classified as TDRs.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At March 31, 2021,2022, the Corporation had total assets of $2.2$2.3 billion, which was an increase of $82.3$37.3 million since December 31, 2020.2021. The increase resultedwas attributable primarily from loanto increases in available for sale securities and deposit growth.loans held for investment, partially offset by a decrease in loans held for sale, and was funded by growth in money market and demand deposits. The significant components of the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets are discussed below.

The increase in total loans from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 was due primarily to growth in automobile loans at the consumer finance segment and commercial business lending and acquisition and development lending at the community banking segment, partially offset by repayment of PPP loans.

Beginning in April 2020, the community banking segment originated loans under the PPP which are guaranteed by the SBA, and in some cases borrowers may be eligible to obtain forgiveness of the loans, in which case loans would be repaid by the SBA.  Net PPP origination fees recognized in the first quarter of 20212022 were $864,000.$437,000, compared to $864,000 in the same period in 2021.  Since the second quarter of 2020, the community banking segment has recognized $2.4$6.1 million of net fees under the PPP, and there weredeferred net PPP origination fees that remained unrecognized net deferred PPP fees at March 31, 2021 of $3.7 million,2022 were $242,000, which are expected to be recognized primarily in 2021 and 2022. As repayment of thePPP loans is guaranteed by the SBA, the community banking segment does not recognize a reserve for PPP loans in its allowance for loan losses.  Table 1519 presents information pertaining tothe outstanding principal of loans originated under the PPP.

Investment Securities

The investment portfolio plays a primary role in the management of the Corporation’s interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the portfolio serves as a source of liquidity and is used as needed to meet collateral requirements. The investment portfolio consists of securities available for sale, which may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, increases in loan demand, general liquidity needs and other similar factors. These securities are carried at estimated fair value. At March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, all securities in the Corporation’s investment portfolio were classified as available for sale.

The following tableTable 20 sets forth the composition of the Corporation’s securities available for sale in dollar amounts at fair value and as a percentage of the Corporation’s total securities available for sale at the dates indicated.

Securities available for sale increased by $42.4 million to $415.5 million at March 31, 2022, compared to $373.1 million at December 31, 2021, due primarily to purchases of U.S. Treasury and mortgage-backed securities with short maturities, in order to utilize excess liquidity by investing in debt securities rather than holding lower-yielding cash reserves.

For more information about the Corporation's securities available for sale, including information about securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, see Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” under the heading “Note 3:2: Securities” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Deposits

The Corporation’s predominant source of funds is depository accounts, which are comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts and time deposits. The Corporation’s deposits are principally provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served.

Table of Contents

During the first quarter of 2021,2022, deposits increased $79.8$55.0 million to $1.83$1.97 billion at March 31, 2021,2022, compared to $1.75$1.91 billion at December 31, 2020.2021. Demand and savings deposits increased $80.0 million and time deposits decreased $25.0 million during the same period. This increase included the effect of PPP loansin demand and direct government payments received by depositors.savings deposits was due in part to opening new deposit accounts and higher balances in existing deposit accounts.

The Corporation had $5.6 million$5,000 in brokered money market and time deposits outstanding at both March 31, 2021, compared to $6.1 million at2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. The source of these brokered deposits is primarily uninvested cash balances held in third-party

Borrowings

Borrowings increaseddecreased to $79.7$88.1 million at March 31, 20212022 from $76.2$90.5 million at December 31, 2020,2021 due primarily due to fluctuations in short-term borrowingsbalances with commercial customers.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis," under the heading "Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements" in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, the mortgage banking segment had $181.1 million of  interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) and $161.8 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $342.9 million in mortgage loans.  Also at March 31, 2021, the mortgage banking segment had $11.4 million of IRLCs and $9.0 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using forward sales of $11.3 million of TBA securities and mandatory-delivery forward sales contracts for $7.6 million in mortgage loans.  

At December 31, 2020, the mortgage banking segment had $190.9 million of IRLCs and $200.9 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using best-efforts forward sales contracts for $391.8 million in mortgage loans.  Also at December 31, 2020, the mortgage banking segment had $7.7 million of IRLCs and $5.6 million of unpaid principal on mortgage loans held for sale for which it managed interest rate risk using forward sales of $8.0 million of TBA securities and mandatory-delivery forward sales contracts for $3.9 million in mortgage loans.

The Corporation uses derivatives to manage exposure to interest rate risk through the use of interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties, based on a common notional principal amount and maturity datedeposit customers with no exchange of underlying principal amounts.

The Corporation has interest rate swaps that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges. The Corporation’s cash flow hedges effectively modify the Corporation’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting variable rates of interest on $25.0 million of the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes to fixed rates of interest for periods that end between June 2024 and June 2029. The cash flow hedges’ total notional amount is $25.0 million. At March 31, 2021, the cash flow hedges had a fair value of $891,000, which is recorded in other liabilities.  The net gain/loss on the cash flow hedges is recognized as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

The Corporation also enters into interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs.  The Corporation simultaneously enters into interest rate swaps with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and terms.  The net effect of these interest rate swaps and the related loans is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate.  At March 31, 2021, the total notional amount of the interest rate swaps related to these loans was $168.9 million and the interest rate swaps had a net fair value of zero, with $4.5 million recognized in other assets and $4.5 million recognized in other liabilities.  These swaps are not designated as hedging instruments; therefore, changes in fair value are recorded in other noninterest expense.

54

Table of Contents

The Corporation’s contracts with dealer counterparties for interest rate swaps and forward sales of TBA securities require the Corporation to post collateral for derivative instruments in a loss position, subject to certain thresholds and offsets.  At March 31, 2021 and at December 31, 2020, $5.6 million and $9.9 million, respectively, of cash collateral was maintained with dealer counterparties and was included in “Other assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2021, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations disclosed in Part II, Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," under the heading “Table 20: Contractual Obligations” in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.repurchase agreements.

Liquidity

The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Stable core deposits and a strong capital position are the components of a solid foundation for the Corporation’s liquidity position. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities, the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit and the capacity to borrow additional funds.

Liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, totaled $330.62$507.1 million at March 31, 2021,2022, compared to $227.9$454.6 million at December 31, 2020.2021. The Corporation’s funding sources, including capacity, amount outstanding and amount available at March 31, 20212022 are presented in Table 18.21.

We have no reason to believe these arrangements will not be renewed at maturity.  During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Corporation pledged additional loans as collateral in order to increase available liquidity at the FHLB that had been unpledged as of December 31, 2020.   Additional loans and securities are available that can be pledged as collateral for future borrowings from the Federal ReserveHome Loan Bank or the FHLBof Atlanta (FHLB) above the current lendable collateral value. Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity may be affected by numerous factors, including economic conditions nationally and in our markets. Depending on our liquidity levels, our capital position, conditions in the capital markets, our business operations and initiatives, and other factors, we may from time to time consider the issuance of debt, equity or other securities or other possible capital market transactions, the proceeds of which could provide additional liquidity for our operations.

As a result of the Corporation’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Corporation maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its operational requirements and contractual obligations.

Capital Resources

The disclosure below presents the Corporation’s and the Bank’s actual regulatory capital amounts and ratios under currently applicable regulatory capital standards.  Under the small bank holding company policy statement of the Federal Reserve Board, which applies to certain bank holding companies with consolidated total assets of less than $3 billion, the Corporation is not subject to regulatory capital requirements. The table below reflects the Corporation’s consolidated capital as determined under regulations that apply to bank holding companies that are not small bank holding companies and minimum capital requirements that would apply to the Corporation if it were not a small bank holding company.  Although the minimum regulatory capital requirements are not applicable to the Corporation, the Corporation calculates these ratios for its own planning and monitoring purposes.

continue treating accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) under regulatory standards that were in place prior to the Basel III Final Rule in order to eliminate volatility of regulatory capital that can result from fluctuations in AOCI and the inclusion of AOCI in regulatory capital, as would otherwise be required under the Basel III Capital Rule.  As a result of this election, changes in AOCI, including unrealized losses on securities available for sale, do not affect regulatory capital amounts shown in the table above for the Corporation or the Bank. For additional information about the Basel III Final Rules, see “Item 1. Business” under the heading “Regulation and Supervision” and “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” under the heading “Note 18:17: Regulatory Requirements and Restrictions” in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

There were no repurchasesThe timing, number and purchase price of shares repurchased under the Corporation’s share repurchase program for2021 Repurchase Program will be determined by management in its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the first quartermarket price of 2021.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

The Corporation’s financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP).  U.S. GAAP presently requires the Corporation to measure financial position and operating results primarily in terms of historic dollars. Changes in the relative value of money due to inflation or recession are generally not considered. The primary effect of inflation on the operations of the Corporation is reflected in increased operating costs. In management’s opinion, changes in interest rates affect the financial condition of a financial institution to a far greater degree than changes in the inflation rate. While interest rates are greatly influenced by changes in the inflation rate, they do not necessarily change at the same rate or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the Corporation, including changes in the expected rate of inflation, the influence of general and local economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government, its agencies and various other governmental regulatory authorities.

USE OF CERTAIN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include adjusted net income for the Corporation and for the community banking segment, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted ROE, adjusted return on tangible common equity (ROTCE), adjusted ROA, tangible book value per share, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest income on loans-FTE, interest income on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provideprovides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) items that do not reflect ongoing operating performance, including non-recurring gains or charges, (2) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and (3) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures
