CAPSTAR FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 include CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, CapStar Bank (the “Bank”, together referred to as the “Company”). Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. All adjustments consisting of normally recurring accruals that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in the 20212022 Form 10-K.

The consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2022 reported herein reflect minor changes from financial results

Certain amounts, previously reported, in Form 8-K filed on October 20, 2022. The changes include a $0.20 million increase in noninterest expense and a $0.15 million decrease in net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, along with insignificant changes to balances previously reported in the balance sheet.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The accounts of an acquired entity are included as of the date of acquisition, and any excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is capitalized as goodwill. Under this method, all identifiable assets acquired, including purchased loans, and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value.

The Company typically issues common stock and/or pays cash for an acquisition, depending on the terms of the acquisition agreement. The value of shares of common stock issued is determined based upon the market price of the stock as of the closing of the acquisition.

Use of Estimates

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 relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, determination of impairment of intangible assets, including goodwill, the valuation of our investment portfolio, the valuation of loans held for sale, deferred tax assets and estimated liabilities. There have been reclassified to state all periods on a comparable basis and had no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in the 2021 Form 10-K.effect on shareholders' equity or net income.

Subsequent Events

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855, Subsequent Events, establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The Company evaluated all significant events or transactions that occurred after September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 through the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that there were no events that required disclosure.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended, which replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) ("unfunded commitments"). In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on available-for-sale debt securities management does not intend to sell or believes that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and unfunded commitments credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2023 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP ("incurred loss"). The Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $3.4 million as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative adoption effect of adopting ASC 326. The transition adjustment includes a $1.5 million increase in the allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans inclusive of a $0.2 million reclassification of purchased accounting discounts reclassified to the ACL on loans, a $3.4 million increase in the ACL on unfunded commitments credit exposures, and a $1.3 million increase in deferred tax assets.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets purchased with credit deterioration ("PCD") that were previously classified as purchased credit impaired ("PCI") and accounted for under ASC 310-30. In accordance with the standard, management did not reassess whether PCI assets met the criteria of PCD assets as of the date of adoption. On January 1, 2023, the amortized cost basis of the PCD assets were adjusted to reflect the addition of $0.2 million of the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount (based on the adjusted amortized cost basis) will be accreted into interest income at the effective interest rate as of January 1, 2023. As allowed by ASC 326, the Company elected to maintain pools of loans accounted for under ASC 310-30.

Debt Securities

Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums or discounts. Premiums and discounts on securities are generally amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Premiums on callable debt securities are amortized to their earliest call date. Gains and losses on sale are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

A debt security is placed on non-accrual status at the time any principal or interest payments become over 90 days delinquent. Interest accrued but not received for a security placed on non-accrual is reversed against interest income.

ACL - Held-to-Maturity Securities

Management measures expected credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. Accrued interest receivable on held-to-maturity debt securities at March 31, 2023 totaled $26 thousand and was excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

The estimate of current expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management classifies the held-to-maturity portfolio into one major security type, state and municipal securities, which are highly rated by major rating agencies.

ACL - Available-for-Sale Securities

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or if it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security's amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For debt securities available-for sale that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluated whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considered the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an ACL is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Changes in the ACL are recorded as credit loss expense (or reversal). Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an available-for-sale security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

10


Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities totaled $1.9 million at March 31, 2023 and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost, net of the ACL. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, and deferred loan fees and costs. Accrued interest receivable totaled $11.2 million at March 31, 2023 and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.

Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued and placed on non-accrual status at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well secured and in process of collection. Mortgage loans are charged off at 180 days past due, and commercial loans are charged off to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollected. Consumer and credit card loans continue to accrue interest until they are charged off no later than 120 days past due unless the loan is in the process of collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on non-accrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Purchase Credit Deteriorated ("PCD") Loans

The Company has purchased loans, some of which have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. PCD loans are recorded at the amount paid. An ACL is determined using the same methodology as other loans held for investment. The initial ACL determined on a collective basis is allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan's purchase price and ACL becomes its initial amortized cost basis. The differences between the initial amortized cost basis and the par value of the loan is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent change to the ACL are recorded through credit loss expense.

Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Company elected to maintain pools of loans that were previously accounted for under ASC 310-30 and will continue to account for these pools as a unit of account. Loans are only removed from the existing pools if they are written off, paid off, or sold. Upon adoption of ASC 326, the ACL was determined for each pool and added to the pool's carrying amount to establish a new amortized cost basis. The difference between the unpaid principal balance of the pool and the new amortized cost basis is the noncredit premium or discount which will be amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the pool. Changes to the ACL after adoption are recorded through credit loss expense.

ACL - Loans

The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.

Management estimates the ACL balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in unemployment rates, property values, or other relevant factors.

The ACL is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has identified the following portfolio segments and measures the ACL for each using a discounted cash flow methodology at the loan level, with loss rates, prepayment assumptions and curtailment assumptions driven by each loan’s collateral type.

Owner occupied commercial real estate - Loans in this category are susceptible to business failure and general economic conditions.

Non owner occupied commercial real estate - Common risks for this loan category are declines in general economic conditions, declines in real estate value, declines in occupancy rates, and lack of suitable alternative use for the property.

Commercial & industrial - Risks to this loan category include the inability to monitor the condition of the collateral, which often consists of inventory, accounts receivable and other non-real estate assets. Equipment and inventory obsolescence can also pose a risk. Declines in general economic conditions and other events can cause cash flows to fall to levels insufficient to service debt.

Commercial construction - Risks common to commercial construction loans are cost overruns, changes in market demand for property, inadequate long-term financing arrangements and declines in real estate values.

11


Residential mortgage - Residential mortgage loans are susceptible to weakening general economic conditions, increases in unemployment rates and declining real estate values.

Home equity lines of credit - Risks common to home equity lines of credit are general economic conditions, including an increase in unemployment rates, and declining real estate values that reduce or eliminate the borrower’s home equity.

Residential construction - Residential construction loans are susceptible to the same risks as residential mortgage loans. Changes in market demand for property lead to longer marketing times resulting in higher carrying costs and declining values.

Consumer - Risks common to consumer direct loans include unemployment and changes in local economic conditions as well as the inability to monitor collateral consisting of personal property.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not included in the collective evaluation. When management determines that foreclosure is probable expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.

Discounted Cash Flow Method

The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate expected credit losses for all loan segments. The Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speed, curtailments, time to recovery, probability of default, and loss given default. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds and curtailment rates are based on historical internal data. The prepayment speeds additionally use peer data to backfill a complete time series and utilizes a forward-looking third-party prepayment model, which considers current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data to determine suitable loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime probability of default and loss given default. This analysis also determines how expected probability of default and loss given default will react to forecasted levels of the loss drivers.

For all discounted cash flow models, management has determined that four quarters represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts back to a historical loss rate over four quarters on a straight-line basis. Management leverages economic projections around unemployment rates from the Federal Open Market Committee to inform its loss driver forecasts over the four-quarter forecast period.

The combination of adjustments for credit expectations (default and loss) and timing expectations (prepayment, curtailment, and time to recovery) produces an expected cash flow stream at the instrument level. Instrument effective yield is calculated, net of the impacts of prepayment assumptions, and the instrument expected cash flows are then discounted at that effective yield to produce an instrument-level net present value of expected cash flows (“NPV”). An ACL is established for the difference between the instrument’s NPV and amortized cost basis.

Qualitative Factors

The Company uses qualitative factors for model limitations and risk uncertainty as well as for loan segment specific risks that cannot be addressed in the quantitative methods. Any additional qualitative factor reserves needed will be approved by the Allowance Committee quarterly.

Individually Evaluated Assets

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral dependent loans where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the loan to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. The Company may, in the alternative, measure the expected credit loss as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the estimated fair value of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized costs basis of the loan exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the loan.

12


Determining the Contractual Term: Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless either of the following applies: management has a reasonable expectation at the reporting date that a modification will be executed with an individual borrower or the extension or renewal options included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date are not unconditionally cancellable by the Company.

ACL - Unfunded commitments

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The ACL on unfunded commitments is adjusted through credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. The ACL is calculated using the same aggregate reserve rates calculated for the funded portion of loans at the portfolio level applied to the amount of commitments expected to fund. The Company has identified pools of unfunded commitments which align with loans held for investment. The ACL on unfunded commitments is recorded on the other liabilities line item of the balance sheet.

ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in ASC 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings involving borrowings that are experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, creditors will evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Losses associated with troubled debt restructurings should be incorporated in a creditor’s estimate of its ACL. Additionally, public business entities are required to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for loan financing receivables and net investment in leases. The Company has adopted the standard as of January 1, 2023 with little to no impact to its accounting, and has included the additional required disclosures herein.

As noted in the table above, as of September 30, 2022, the Company had gross unrealized losses ofACL totaling $72.4 million in its investment securities portfolio. The unrealized losses associated with these investment securities are driven by changes in interest rates and are recorded as a component of equity. These investment securities will continue to be monitored as a part of our ongoing impairment analysis. Management evaluates the financial performance of the issuers on a quarterly basis to determine if it is probable that the issuers can make all contractual principal and interest payments. If an expected shortfall in future cash flows is identified, a credit loss will be deemed to have occurred and will be recognized as a charge to earnings and a new cost basis for the security will be established.

Since the Company currently does not intend to sell any investment securities that have an unrealized loss at September 30, 2022, and it is not likely that we will be required to sell these investment securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity, we do not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2022.

Securities with a market value of $214.42.0 million at September 30, 2022 were pledged to collateralize public deposits, derivative positions and Federal Home Loan Bank advances.March 31, 2023.

At adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2023 and at March 31, 2023, calculated credit losses and, thus, the related ACL on held-to-maturity debt securities were not material due to the high credit quality of the portfolio. As a result, no ACL was recorded on the held-to-maturity portfolio at March 31, 2023.

At December 31, 2023, the Company owned certain securities related to Signature Bank ("Signature") which, following the first quarter failure of Signature, were deemed to have significant credit losses and no probable recovery. As such, a $2.0 million provision for credit loss was recorded with a corresponding ACL. The Company has performed an assessment of its portfolio in an unrealized loss position and has determined no other credit losses present as of March 31, 2023. See Note 1 for additional details on the adoption of ASC 326 as it relates to the securities portfolio.

At March 31, 2023, there were 327 debt securities available-for-sale that were in an unrealized loss position. The Company does not intend to sell nor believes it will be required to sell securities in an unrealized loss position prior to the recovery of their amortized cost basis. Unrealized losses at March 31, 2023 were primarily attributable to the rising interest rate environment. The majority of the investment portfolio was either government guaranteed or an issuance of a government sponsored entity or highly rated by major credit rating agencies.

As of March 31, 2023, the Signature securities for which an ACL has been recorded are on non-accrual. No other securities are past due or on non-accrual.

The Company participated in, to fund operational costs of eligible businesses, organizations and self-employed personsrecognized no interest income on nonaccrual loans during the pandemic period. The SBA has guaranteed 100% of the amounts loaned under the PPP by lenders to eligible small businesses. One of the notable features of the PPP is that borrowers are eligible for loan forgiveness if certain conditions are met related to retaining staff and if loan amounts are used to cover eligible expenses, such as payroll, mortgage interest, rents and utilities payments. These loans have a two to five year term and will earn interest at a rate of 1%. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance of loans originated under the PPP totaled $0.9 million compared with $26.5 million as of Decemberthree months ended March 31, 2021 and was included in commercial and industrial loans.2023.

Additionally, PPP borrowers are not required to pay any fees to the government or the lender and the loans may be repaid by the borrower at any time. The SBA, however, will pay lenders a processing fee based on the size of the PPP loan, ranging from 1% to 5% of the loan. These fees are deferred and amortized over the life of the loan. PPP fees recognized as income totaled $0.1 million and $0.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.9 million and $6.8 million for the same periods in 2021.16


Loans Held for Sale

Included within the balance sheet as of September 30, 2022, the Company had $43.1 million in loans held for sale, which was comprised of $2.3 million in Tri-Net commercial real estate loans, $33.4 million in residential mortgage loans, and $7.4 million in the guaranteed

portion of SBA loans. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $83.7 million in loans held for sale, which was comprised of $40.9 million in Tri-Net commercial real estate loans, $37.3 million in residential mortgage loans, and $7.4 million in the guaranteed portion of SBA loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is assessed at the end of each quarter. The ALL includes a specific component related to loans that are individually evaluated for impairment and a general component related to loans that are segregated into homogenous pools and collectively evaluated for impairment. The ALL factors applied to these pools are an estimate of probable incurred losses based on management’s evaluation of historical net losses from loans with similar characteristics, which are adjusted by management to reflect current events, trends, and conditions. The adjustments include consideration of the following: changes in lending policies and procedures, economic conditions, nature and volume of the portfolio, experience of lending management, volume and severity of past due loans, quality of the loan review system, value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans, concentrations, and other external factors. The Company’s evaluation of other external factors included consideration of continuing developments regarding the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) global pandemic (including the effects of COVID-19 variants) and the resulting impact on the Company’s loan portfolio as of September 30, 2022, which is uncertain due to evolving conditions and unforeseen new variants.Risk Ratings

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes all commercial loans individually and assigns each loan a risk rating. This analysis is performed at origination by the relationship manager and credit department personnel. On at least an annual basis, an independent party performs a formal credit risk review of a sample of the loan portfolio. Among other things, this review assesses the appropriateness of the loan’s risk rating. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass – Loans in this category are considered to have a low probability of default and do not meet the criteria of the risk categories below.
Special Mention – A special mention asset possesses deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving of management’s attention. If uncorrected, such weaknesses or deficiencies may expose the Company to an increased risk of loss in the future.

Substandard – A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified substandard.

Doubtful – A doubtful asset has all weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard, with the added characteristic that weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The probability of loss is extremely high, but certain important and reasonable specific pending factors which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the asset exist, therefore, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until a more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition or liquidation procedures, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral, and refinancing plans.

Loans not falling into the criteria above are considered to be pass-rated loans. The Company utilizes six loan grades within the pass risk rating.

Modifications

Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay or interest rate reduction. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the ACL.

In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of concessions on one loan. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted.

The following table represents the loans at March 31, 2023 that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the three months ended March 31, 2023, by class and by type of modification. The percentage of loans that were modified to borrowers in financial distress as compared to the total loans of each class is also presented below.

The Company has not committed to lend additional amounts to the borrowers included in the previous table.

The Company closely monitors the performance of loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. Such loans that had been modified in the last 12 months are all current with no loans past due.

The following table presents the financial effect of the loan modifications represented above to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty for the three months ended March 31, 2023:

No loans modified during the three months ended March 31, 2023 are in payment default.

Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan is written off. Therefore, the recorded investment of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount.

The following table presents collateral dependent loans, which are individually evaluated to determine expected credit losses, as of March 31, 2023 by class of loan and type of collateral.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company used a one-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. The changes in loss rates used as the basis for the estimate of credit losses during this period were modeled using both the Company's own historical data and historical data from peer banks and macroeconomic forecast data obtained from a third party vendor, which were then applied to the Company’s recent default experience as a starting point. At March 31, 2023, the forecast indicated that the markets in which the Company operates will experience a decline in economic conditions and an increase in the unemployment rate over the next year, primarily as a result of the interest rate environment. The increase in the ACL compared to January 1, 2023 was primarily attributable to an increase in the loan portfolio, changes in various loan attributes at the instrument level, and qualitative factors. For periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period of one year, the Company reverted to historical credit loss information on a straight line basis over two years.

The Company maintains an allowance for unfunded commitments exposures. The allowance for unfunded commitments credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur, which is based on a historical funding study derived from internal information, and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life, which are the same loss rates that are used in computing the allowance for credit losses on loans. The ACL for unfunded loan commitments of $4.1 million and $0.3 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, is separately classified on the balance sheet within Other Liabilities.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all loans classified as nonperforming were deemed to be purchased credit impaired or impaired.

18


As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a recorded investment in TDR of $0.3 million and 1.8 million, respectively. The Company had no specific allowance for those loans at September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021 and there were no commitments to lend additional amounts. Loans accounted for as TDR include modifications from original terms such as those due to bankruptcy proceedings, certain modifications of amortization periods or extended suspension of principal payments due to customer financial difficulties. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the Bank’s loan policy. Loans accounted for as TDR are individually evaluated for impairment.In accordance with interagency guidance, short term deferrals granted due to the COVID-19 pandemic are not considered TDR unless the borrower was experiencing financial difficulty prior to the pandemic.

The following table presents loans by class modified as TDR that occurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (dollars in thousands). There were no new TDR identified during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

The Company enters into various derivative agreements with customers in the form of interest-rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. The derivatives are valued using a model that utilizes market interest rates and other unobservable inputs. Changes in the fair value of these commitments due to fluctuations in interest rates that are to be originated to our loans held for sale portfolio are economically hedged through the use of forward sale commitments of mortgage-backed securities. The gains and losses arising from this derivative activity are reflected in current period earnings under mortgage banking income. Interest rate lock commitments are valued using a model with significant unobservable market parameters. Forward sale commitments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in an active market with inputs that are observable.

The net (losses) gains relating to mortgage banking derivative instruments included in mortgage banking income were as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 108 – STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED SHARES

The Plan is intended to help align the interests of employees and our shareholders and reward our employees for improved Company performance. A total of 1,168,543 shares of stock were reserved for issuance under the Plan. Stock incentives include both restricted share and stock option grants. Total shares issuable under the plan were 1,105,1481,005,157 as of September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.

Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Stock Units

We grant time-vested restricted stock units and performance stock units to certain key employees and directors under our stock award plan. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the fair value of the stock at the issue date. Awards vest ratably over a two or three-year vesting period depending on the specific award.

Performance stock units vest based upon the attainment of certain performance metrics over a three-year cumulative performance period. Certain of these awards are eligible to receive dividend equivalent shares. The grant date fair value of these awards was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. For awards based upon the achievement of the performance goals, the awards are earned ratably from 0% to 188%. If the performance goals are met at the end of the performance period, the award is adjusted to reflect the Company’s three-year total shareholder return (TSR) performance relative to a capital market peer group. This TSR modifier cannot cause the award to exceed the maximum of 188%.

The recipients have the right to vote and receive dividends but cannot sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber the restricted stock until the shares have vested.

NOTE 119 – REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve and the Bank is also subject to the regulatory capital requirements of the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory – and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that could, in that event, have a material adverse effect on the institutions’ financial statements. The relevant regulations require the Company and the Bank to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting principles. The capital classifications of the Company and the Bank are also subject to qualitative judgments by their regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Those qualitative judgments could also affect the capital status of the Company and the Bank and the amount of dividends the Company and the Bank may distribute. The final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (Basel III rules) became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities is not included in computing regulatory capital. Management believes as of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Company and the Bank met all regulatory capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

NOTE 1311 – FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (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. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Bank used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Investment Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2), using matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique commonly used to price debt securities that are not actively traded and values debt securities by relying on quoted prices for the specific securities and the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). See below for additional discussion of Level 3 valuation methodologies and significant inputs. The fair values of all securities are determined from third party pricing services without adjustment.

Derivatives-Interest Rate Swaps: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2). The Bank’s derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions and third-party pricing services. The fair values of all interest rate swaps are determined from third party pricing services without adjustment.

ImpairedIndividually Evaluated Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan lossesACL is generally based on recent appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans and collateral underlying such loans. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. ImpairedIndividually evaluated loans are evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the loan policy.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals which are updated no less frequently than annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach with data from comparable properties. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Appraisals may be adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the collateral. Such adjustments result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Real estate owned properties are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. The Company had no other real estate owned carried at fair value at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2021.2022.

Loans Held For Sale: Loans held for sale are carried at either fair value, if elected, or the lower of cost or fair value on a pool-level basis. Origination fees and costs for loans held for sale recorded at lower of cost or market are capitalized in the basis of the loan and are included in the calculation of realized gains and losses upon sale. Origination fees and costs are recognized in earnings at the time of origination for loans held for sale that are recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2).

Derivatives-Mortgage Loan Interest Rate Lock Commitments: Interest rate lock commitments that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be held for sale are recorded at fair value, determined as the amount that would be required to settle each derivative instrument at the balance sheet date. The fair value of the interest rate lock commitment is derived from the fair value of related mortgage loans, which is based on observable market data and includes the expected net future cash flows related to servicing of the loans. In estimating the fair value of an interest rate lock commitment, the Company assigns a probability to the interest rate lock commitment based on an expectation that it will be exercised and the loan will be funded (a “pull through” rate). The expected pull through rates are applied to the fair value of the unclosed mortgage pipeline, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. The pull through rate is a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history to determine the sensitivity of the residential mortgage loan pipeline compared to interest rate changes and other deterministic values. New market prices are applied based on updated loan characteristics and new fallout ratios (i.e., the inverse of the pull through rate) are applied accordingly. Significant increases (decreases) in the pull through rate in isolation result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Changes to the fair value of interest rate lock commitments are recognized based on interest rate changes, changes in the probability that the commitment will be exercised, and the passage of time.

Derivatives-Mortgage-Backed Securities Forward Sales Commitments: The Company utilizes mortgage-backed securities forward sales commitments to hedge mortgage loan interest rate lock commitments. Mortgage-backed securities forward sales commitments are recorded at fair value based on quoted prices for similar assets in an active market with inputs that are observable, resulting in a Level 2 fair value classification.

The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair values are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Due from Banks, Interest-Bearing Deposits in Financial Institutions

For these short‑term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

(b) Restricted Equity Securities

It is not practical to determine the fair value of restricted securities due to restrictions placed on their transferability.

(c) Loans heldHeld for saleSale

Loans held for sale include residential mortgage loans, the guaranteed portion of SBA loans, and Tri-Net loans. The fair value of residential mortgage and SBA loans held for sale is measured using an exit price notion. The fair value of Tri-Net loans held for sale is measured using an exit price notion in as much as observable market data is available. Where there is no observable market data, the fair value of Tri-Net loans held for sale is estimated using discounted cash flow models. There were no Tri-Net loans held for sale as of March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

(d) Loans held for investment

The fair value of loans held for investment iswas measured using an exit price notion. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow models or based on the fair value of the underlying collateral.

(e) Accrued Interest Receivable

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

(f) Other Assets

Included in other assets are bank owned life insurance and certain interest rate swap agreements. The fair values of interest rate swap agreements are based on independent pricing services that utilize pricing models with observable market inputs. For bank owned life insurance, the carrying amount is based on the cash surrender value and is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

3032


(g) Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposit may beis estimated by discounted cash flow models, using current market interest rates offered on certificates with similar remaining maturities or other valuation techniques.maturities.

(h) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Subordinated Debt

The fair value of fixed rate Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and subordinated notes is estimated using discounted cash flow models, using current market interest rates offered on certificates, advances and other borrowings with similar remaining maturities.

(i) Other Liabilities

Included in other liabilities are accrued interest payable and certain interest rate swap agreements. The fair values of interest rate swap agreements are based on independent pricing services that utilize pricing models with observable market inputs. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

(j) Off-Balance Sheet Instruments

Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.

(k) Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Bank’s entire holdings of a particular instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Bank’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates are based on estimating on and off‑balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For example, fixed assets are not considered financial instruments and their value has not been incorporated into the fair value estimates. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following is a discussion of our financial condition at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20212022 and our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 2021.2022. The purpose of this discussion is to focus on information about our financial condition and results of operations which is not otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements. The following discussion and analysis should be read along with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report and our 20212022 10-K. Annualized results for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year or future periods.

The following discussion and analysis pertains to our historical results on a consolidated basis. However, because we conduct all of our material business operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, CapStar Bank, the following discussion and analysis relates to activities primarily conducted at the subsidiary level.

All dollar amounts in the tables in this section are in thousands of dollars, except share or per share data or when otherwise specifically noted.

Overview

The thirdfirst quarter of 20222023 resulted in $0.37$0.30 diluted net income per share of common stock, a decrease of 37.3%37.5% compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 2021.2022. Annualized return on average assets was 1.01%0.83% for the thirdfirst quarter of 20222023 compared to 1.64%1.37% for the same period in 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, diluted net income per share of common stock was $1.30, a decrease of 20.2% compared to the same period in 2021. Annualized return on average assets was 1.22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 1.56% for the same period in 2021.2022.

At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, loans held for investment increased to $2.29$2.41 billion, as compared to $1.97$2.31 billion at December 31, 2021. Included within the increase for the third quarter was $25.6 million of Tri-Net loans transferred from loans held for sale to loans held for investment.2022. Total deposits decreasedincreased to $2.63$2.75 billion at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 from $2.68 billion at December 31, 2021.2022.

As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance of loans originated under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) totaled approximately $0.7 million and was included in commercial and industrial loans.

As the global COVID pandemic and its variants continue, we will continue to assess the impact on our market. While it is uncertain losses will materialize in the future, we continue to proactively work with our clients and evaluate the potential impact of the pandemic on them and us. Furthermore, we currently do not anticipate a significant adverse liquidity impact related to the COVID-19 pandemic. See further discussion regarding the Company’s management of liquidity risk in the subsequent section titled ‘Liquidity’. Despite the uncertainty the Company is well positioned to continue delivering on its strategic initiatives in a responsible manner by prioritizing things such as business continuity, liquidity management and maintaining an adequate allowance for loan losses.

Our primary revenue sources are net interest income and fees from various financial services provided to customers. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on loans, investment securities and other interest earning assets less interest expense on deposit accounts and other interest bearing liabilities. Loan volume and interest rates earned on those loans are critical to overall profitability. Similarly, deposit volume is crucial to funding loans and rates paid on deposits directly impact profitability. Business volumes are influenced by competition, new business acquisition efforts and economic factors including market interest rates, business spending and consumer confidence.

Net interest income increased $2.6$2.1 million, or 11.3%9.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2021 and increased $3.0 million, or 4.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.2022. Net interest margin increased to 3.50%3.24% for the three months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, compared with 3.12%2.97% for the same period of 20212022.

The increases primarily resulted from continued increases in interest rates and the positive mix shift in average earning assets.investment.

The three months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 yielded a $0.9$2.4 million provision expense compared to noa $0.8 million recovery of provision being recorded for the comparable period of 2021.2022. The increasecurrent year provision largely related to the $2.0 million provision expense related to the Signature Bank subordinated debt held in provision was primarily attributable to strong loan growth and an increase in qualitative factors.available-for-sale debt securities.

Common equity tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets, summarized in Note 1110 of the consolidated financial statements, is a useful measure in evaluating the quality and adequacy of capital. Our consolidated ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets was 12.70%12.07% as of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, compared with 14.11%12.61% at December 31, 2021.2022.
 

The following sections provide more details on subjects presented in this overview.

(a)

Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Our accounting and reporting estimates are in accordance with GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Estimates that are susceptible to significant changes include accounting for the allowance for credit losses and fair value measurements, both of which require significant judgments by management. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Also, different assumptions in the application of these accounting estimates could result in material changes in our consolidated financial position or consolidated

results of operations. Except as described below, there have been no significant changes to critical accounting estimates as discussed in the MD&A in our 2022 10-K.

Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL")

Since the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, the ACL represents management’s estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of financial instruments, with particular applicability on our balance sheet to loans and unfunded loan commitments. Estimating the amount of the ACL requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to historical experience, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and the value of collateral on collateral-dependent loans. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on our consolidated balance sheet. Loan losses are charged against the allowance, while recoveries of amounts previously charged off are credited to the allowance. A provision for credit losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of the factors previously mentioned, as well as other pertinent factors.

There are many factors affecting the ACL; some are quantitative while others require qualitative judgment. Although management believes its process for determining the allowance adequately considers all the potential factors that could potentially result in credit losses, the process includes subjective elements and is susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional provision for credit losses could be required that could adversely affect our earnings or financial position in future periods.

Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements includes additional information on accounting policies related to the ACL.

Net Interest Income

The largest component of our net income is net interest income – the difference between the income earned on interest-earning assets and the interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds used to support our assets. Net interest income divided by total average interest-earning assets represents our net interest margin. The major factors that affect net interest income and net interest margin are changes in volumes, the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Our margin can also be affected by economic conditions, the competitive environment, loan demand and deposit flow. Our ability to respond to changes in these factors by using effective asset-liability management techniques is critical to maintaining the stability of the net interest margin and our net interest income.

(1) Average loan balances include nonaccrual loans. Interest income on loans includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs.

(2) Taxable investment securities include restricted equity securities.

(3) Yields on tax exempt securities are shown on a tax equivalent basis.

(4) Net interest spread is the average yield on total interest-earning assets minus the average rate on total interest-bearing liabilities.

(5) Net interest margin is annualized net interest income calculated on a tax equivalent basis divided by total average interest-earning assets for the period.

The net interest margin was 3.50%3.24% and 3.12%2.97% for the thirdfirst quarters of 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 theThe increase in net interest margin was 3.29% compared to 3.17% for the comparable period of 2021. Both quarter and year to date periods in 2022 benefitted from a mix shift in interest earning assets as excess liquidity was deployed to fund loan growth. These improvements were partially offset by a $1.9 million and $6.1 million decline in PPP fees for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 respectively.was primarily due to the rising rate environment over the past 12 months and to deploying excess liquidity into loans held for investment. Average loans held for investment for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 increased $346.4 million versus the same period in 2022, partially as a result of the Company's expansion into Asheville, Chattanooga, and Knoxville markets and continued focus on attracting new clients.

The increase in market interest rates over the past year, with the federal funds rate rising to 5% as of March 31, 2023 versus 0.25% as of March 31, 2022, contributed to a decline in average non-interest bearing deposits and interest bearing transaction accounts, as shown in the tables above, offset by an increase in time deposits.

Average non-interest bearing deposits represented 19.1% of total deposits for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to 26.9% for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, offset by an increase in higher cost time deposits. Deposit costs increased across all interest-bearing account types.

Provision for Credit Losses

Prior to January 1, 2023, the provision for credit losses was based on the then-applicable incurred loss model and represented an estimate of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio and unfunded commitments at the end of each reporting period. Since the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, the provision for credit losses represents management’s estimate of life of loan credit losses in the loan portfolio and unfunded loan commitments and debt securities. The allowance for unfunded commitments, which is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, represents expected losses on unfunded loan commitments that are expected to result in outstanding loan balances. Management’s estimate of credit losses under CECL is determined using a model that relies on reasonable and supportable forecasts and historical loss information to determine the balance of the ACL and resulting provision for credit losses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, there was a provision expense of $2.4 million, which included a $2.0 million provision expense on Signature Bank subordinated debt in available-for-sale debt securities, compared to a $0.8 million recovery of provision expense for the average security yieldscomparable period in 2022.

Current period provision includes $0.1 million provision related to loans compared to a $0.8 million recovery of provision for the comparable period which largely related to the increasing portfolio and other qualitative factors. Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2023 were $165 thousand compared to $57 thousand for the comparable period of 2022. Our ACL on loans at March 31, 2023 was 1.05% of total loans held for investment compared to 1.03% as of December 31, 2022.

A provision of $0.4 million related to unfunded commitments was recorded in the first quarter of 2023 related to the increase in unfunded balances, changes in their composition, and other qualitative factors. The related ACL as a percentage of unfunded commitments increased 54 basis points to 2.29 percent0.47% as of March 31, 2023 compared to 0.44% as of CECL adoption on January 1, 2023.

37


The $2.0 million provision on available-for-sale securities related to expected credit losses on Signature Bank subordinated debt following their first quarter 2023 bank failure. A corresponding ACL is recorded on the balance sheet in available-for-sale debt securities. Should such expected credit losses have been experienced under the incurred loss model prior to our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023, they would have been recorded in other noninterest expense as other than temporary impairment with no corresponding allowance on the balance sheet.

See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — Note 3 — Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans” and Note 2 — "Securities" for additional information on our allowance for credit losses.

Noninterest Income

In addition to net interest income, we generate recurring noninterest income. Our banking operations generate revenue from service charges on deposit accounts, interchange and debit card transaction fees, originating and selling mortgage, commercial real estate and SBA loans, wealth management and gains (losses) on sales of securities. In addition to these types of recurring noninterest income, we own insurance on several key employees and record income within "Other noninterest income" based upon the increase in the cash surrender value of these policies.

The following table sets forth the principal components of noninterest income for the periods indicated.

Deposit service charges increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. These amounts originate from our commercial and consumer deposit accounts.

Interchange and debit card transaction fees fluctuate based upon transaction volumes, which were slightly lower for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Mortgage banking income consists of fees and gains from the origination of loans in our markets that are subsequently sold to third-party investors. Generally, mortgage banking income increases in lower interest rate environments and more robust housing markets and declines in rising interest rate environments and more challenging housing markets. Mortgage banking income will fluctuate from period to period as the rate environment changes. The decline above is indicative of the mortgage market responding to the higher rate environment.

Tri-Net represents a line of business which originates and sells commercial real estate loans to third-party investors with the exception of certain loans originated to borrowers within our target market, which are retained at the discretion of management. All of these loan sales transfer servicing rights to the buyer. Tri-Net activity remained halted during the first quarter of 2023 as the Company assessed market pricing, however, the business is expected to resume modest activity for the remainder of 2023 as pricing has shown signs of stabilizing.

Noninterest income for SBA lending, which represents gains on sales of guaranteed portions of SBA loans, increased for the three month period ended March 31, 2023 when compared to 2021, whilethe same period in 2022 as the Company expanded this line of business with the addition of a specialized team in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Other noninterest income primarily consists of loan related fees, bank-owned life insurance, and other service-related fees. The largest driver of the decline relates to $0.9 million in death benefit income from bank-owned life insurance policies for the ninethree months ended March 31, 2022, with no such activity in 2023.

Salaries and employee benefits expense remained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. At March 31, 2023, our associate base increased to 401 compared to 397 at March 31, 2022.

Regulatory fees expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as the FDIC increased assessment rates in the current year.

Our efficiency ratio was 64.60% and 58.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively, with the increase being driven by the aforementioned noninterest expense factors combined with a 2.4% decline in total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 when compared to the same period of 2022. The efficiency ratio is the ratio of noninterest expense to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income and measures the amount of expense that is incurred to generate a dollar of revenue.

Income Tax Provision

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three month period ended September 30, 2022, average security yields increased 33 basis pointsMarch 31, 2023 was relatively stable at 19.4% compared to 2.10%. Both increases were due to be benefits of increasing market interest rates.

Average noninterest bearing deposits represented 25.1% and 26.4% of total average deposits19.6% for the three and nine month periods ending September 30,period ended March 31, 2022 , respectively, a decline from 27.5% and 26.7%as the Company continues to execute its tax strategy.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared favorably versus the statutory tax rate due to our investments in qualified municipal securities, tax benefits from our real estate investment trust, company owned life insurance, state tax credits, net of the effect of certain non-deductible expenses and nine month periods ending September 30, 2021.

Our principal market for lending is the State of Tennessee and adjacent states that can be effectively accessed from our banking offices. Our target borrower profile includes consumers, small to medium sized businesses, professional firms, real estate investors and developers, and their owners and managers. Our growth since 2018 has been concentrated in borrowers meeting that profile. Our primary competition is community, regional, and national banks operating in our primary markets. In seeking customer banking relationships, we rely on a model of delivering services through a qualified banker meeting all periods for all interest-bearing deposit categories. Average funding sources for the threebanking service needs of the business and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022its primary stakeholders.

At March 31, 2023, our loan portfolio composition remained flatrelatively consistent with the composition at $2.7 billionDecember 31, 2022. Our primary focus has been on commercial and industrial and commercial real estate lending, which constituted 69% of our loan portfolio as of March 31, 2023. Although we expect continued growth with respect to our loan portfolio, we do not expect any significant changes over the foreseeable future in the composition of our loan portfolio or in our emphasis on commercial lending. Our loan growth since inception has been reflective of the target market that we serve. The commercial real estate category includes owner-occupied and non-owner occupied properties. The repayment of owner-occupied properties is largely dependent on the operations of the tenant, while non-owner occupied properties is dependent upon the operation, refinance, or sale of the underlying real estate.

Deposits have increased $70.3 million or, 10.6% when annualized, to $2.75 billion as of March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022. This increase is driven by our interest-bearing transaction accounts and time deposit accounts and partially offset by decreases in our non-interest bearing and savings and money market accounts. The average rate paidbalance per customer account remains low at $47 thousand.

Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk

Managing interest rate risk is fundamental for the financial services industry. The primary objective of interest rate risk management is to mitigate effects of interest rate changes on net income. By considering both on and off-balance sheet financial instruments, management evaluates interest rate sensitivity while attempting to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity needs, market opportunities and customer requirements.

Interest Rate Simulation Sensitivity Analysis

We use earnings at risk, or EAR, simulations to assess the impact of changing rates on earnings under a variety of scenarios and time horizons. The simulation model is designed to reflect the dynamics of interest earning assets, interest bearing liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments. These simulations utilize both instantaneous and parallel changes in the level of interest rates, as well as non-parallel changes such as changing slopes and twists of the yield curve. Static simulation models are based on current exposures and assume a constant balance sheet with no growth. By estimating the effects of interest rate increases and decreases, the model can reveal approximate interest rate risk exposure. The simulation model is used by management to gauge approximate results given a specific change in interest rates at a given point in time. The model is therefore a tool to indicate earnings trends in given interest rate scenarios and does not indicate actual expected results.

At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, our EAR static simulation results indicated that our balance sheetnet interest income over the next year is asset sensitiveestimated to parallel shifts inbe fairly neutral to modest rate increases while being adversely impacted by falling interest rates.rates and benefiting from larger rate increases. This indicates that our assets generally reprice faster than our liabilities, which results in a favorable impact to net interest income when market interest rates increase and an unfavorable impact to net interest income when market interest rates decline. Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our net interest income, such as asset prepayments, non-maturity deposit price sensitivity, and key rate drivers. Because of the inherent use of these estimates and assumptions in the model, our actual results may, and most likely will, differ from our static EAR results. In addition, static EAR results do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates or client behavior. For example, as part of our

42


asset/liability management strategy, management has the ability to increase asset duration and/or decrease liability duration in order to reduce asset sensitivity, or to decrease asset duration and/or increase liability duration in order to increase asset sensitivity.

The following table illustrates the results of our EAR analysis to determine the extent to which our net interest income over the next 12 months would change if prevailing interest rates increased or decreased immediately by the specified amounts.

Provision for Loan Losses

Our policy is to maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level sufficient to absorb probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by a provision for loan losses, which is a charge to earnings, is decreased by charge offs and increased by loan recoveries. While our policies and procedures used to estimate the allowance for loan losses, as well as the resultant provision for loan losses charged to operations, are considered adequate by management, they are necessarily approximate and imprecise. There are factors beyond our control, such as conditions in the local and national economy, local real estate markets, or particular industry or borrower-specific conditions, which may materially and negatively impact our asset quality and the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses and, thus, the resulting provision for loan losses. Provision expense is impacted by macroeconomic factors, the absolute level of loans, loan growth, the credit quality of the loan portfolio and the amount of net charge-offs.

The provision for loan losses amounted to $0.9 million for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 compared to no provision for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and ($0.4) million for the nine month period of 2021. The current period provision was primarily a result of continued strong loan growth partially offset by reduction of pandemic reserve. Net charge-offs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $120 thousand and $193 thousand, respectively, compared to $221 thousand and $297 thousand for the three and nine comparable periods of 2021, respectively. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2022 was 0.98% of total loans held for investment compared to 1.10% as of December 31, 2021.

See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — Note 3 — Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses” for additional information on our allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest Income

In addition to net interest income, we generate recurring noninterest income. Our banking operations generate revenue from service charges on deposit accounts, interchange and debit card transaction fees, originating and selling mortgage, commercial real estate and SBA loans, wealth management and gains (losses) on sales of securities. In addition to these types of recurring noninterest income, we own insurance on several key employees and record income within "Other noninterest income" based upon the increase in the cash surrender value of these policies.

Deposit service charges were up slightly for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. These amounts originate from our commercial and consumer deposit accounts.

Interchange and debit card transaction fees fluctuate based upon transaction volumes, which were slightly higher for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. This increase is attributable to an emphasis on electronic banking and continued growth in deposits and volume of our commercial and consumer deposit accounts.

Mortgage banking income consists of mortgage fee income from the origination and sale of mortgage loans. These mortgage fees are for loans originated in our markets that are subsequently sold to third-party investors. Generally, mortgage origination fees increase in lower interest rate environments and more robust housing markets and decrease in rising interest rate environments and more challenging housing markets. Mortgage origination fees will fluctuate from period to period as the rate environment changes, though the Company benefits from our strong markets and focus on purchase transactions. The Company’s mortgage division experienced a reduction in demand due to higher market rates and reduced demand and anticipates a difficult environment at least until the 2023 buying season returns.

Tri-Net represents a line of business which originates and sells commercial real estate loans to third-party investors. All of these loan sales transfer servicing rights to the buyer. Tri-Net revenue for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2022 decreased 206.2% and 99.2%, respectively, when compared to the same periods of 2021. The decreases are attributable to the adverse impact of rapidly rising interest rates on pricing and investor demand. As a result of this impact, the Company transferred $131.1 million of Tri-Net loans from loans held for sale to loans held for investment, comprised of $106.9 and $24.2 million in the second and third quarters, respectively, of 2022. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Tri-Net results included a $1.3 million realized loss on sale of loans and a $2.2 million unrealized loss on loans transferred to held for investment, partially offset by a $1.6 million gain on its hedge instruments.For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Tri-Net results included a $1.3 million realized loss on sale of loans and a $2.4 million unrealized loss on loans transferred to held for investment, partially offset by a $1.6 million gain on its hedge instruments. As of September 30, 2022, the Company retained $2.1 million Tri-Net loans held for sale, which were under a letter of intent to be sold in the fourth quarter of 2022. Similar to the Company's mortgage division, the Company anticipates continued near-term challenges in the Tri-Net division in a volatile rate environment. The Company paused any further commitments to originate such loans early in the third quarter and will only restart originations when clear indications of market stabilization and liquidity normalization are observed.

Wealth management income is derived from advisory services offered to specific customers. The activity for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 declined slightly compared to the same periods in 2021. Any changes in activity are mostly driven by transaction volume, which can fluctuate from period to period.

Noninterest income for SBA lending, which represents gains on sales of guaranteed portions of SBA loans, declined 38.5% and 40.8% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the same period in 2021.

Other noninterest income primarily consists of loan related fees, bank-owned life insurance, and other service-related fees. While flat for the three month comparable periods, the increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 relates to $0.9 million in death benefit income from bank-owned life insurance policies.

The decreases in salaries and employee benefits were driven primarily by lower incentive expense included within salaries and employee benefits related to lower profitability driven primarily by lower Tri-Net and Mortgage operating results. Additionally, following two operational loss incidents in the current quarter, the Company recorded $0.8 million of voluntary executive incentive reversals. At September 30, 2022, our associate base decreased to 387 compared to 392 at September 30, 2021.

The increase in other operating expenses was attributable to $2.2 million in the aforementioned operational loss incidents, which occurred during the quarter and for which the bank is seeking potential recoveries.

Our efficiency ratio was 62.21% and 59.01% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, versus 53.06% and 55.01%, respectively, for the comparable periods ended September 30, 2021. The efficiency ratio is the ratio of noninterest expense to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income and measures the amount of expense that is incurred to generate a dollar of revenue. Overall, noninterest expense has declined due to the lower incentive expense as well as the Company's continued focus on expense discipline and operational improvements.

Income Tax Provision

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 was 19.8% and 19.7%, respectively, compared to 19.4% and 20.0% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared favorably from the statutory tax rate due to our investments in qualified municipal securities, tax benefits from our real estate investment trust, company owned life insurance, state tax credits, net of the effect of certain non-deductible expenses, and the recognition of excess tax benefits related to stock compensation. The Company anticipates its effective tax rate for 2022 to be approximately 20.0 percent.

(b) Financial Condition

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $32.7 million, or 1.1%, from $3.13 billion on December 31, 2021 to $3.17 billion on September 30, 2022. Loans held for investment grew $327.0 million in the first nine months of 2022.

Total liabilities increased to $2.8 billion at September 30, 2022 when compared to $2.75 billion at December 31, 2021. Deposits decreased $50.6 million, or 1.9%.

Our growth in cash, loans and deposits continues to be significantly influenced by inflation, volatility in the interest rate environment, and funding through the Company's correspondent banking customers.

Our principal market for lending is the State of Tennessee and adjacent states that can be effectively accessed from our banking offices. Our target borrower profile includes consumers, small to medium sized businesses, professional firms, real estate investors and developers, and their owners and managers. Our growth since 2018 has been concentrated in borrowers meeting that profile. Our primary competition is community, regional, and national banks operating in our primary markets. In seeking customer banking relationships, we rely on a model of delivering services through a qualified banker meeting all the banking service needs of the business and its primary stakeholders.

At September 30, 2022, our loan portfolio composition remained relatively consistent with the composition at December 31, 2021. Our primary focus has been on commercial and industrial and commercial real estate lending, which constituted 68% of our loan portfolio as of September 30, 2022. Although we expect continued growth with respect to our loan portfolio, we do not expect any significant changes over the foreseeable future in the composition of our loan portfolio or in our emphasis on commercial lending. Our loan growth since inception has been reflective of the target market that we serve. The commercial real estate category includes owner-occupied and non-owner occupied properties. The repayment of owner-occupied properties is largely dependent on the operations of the tenant, while non-owner occupied properties is dependent upon the operation, refinance, or sale of the underlying real estate.

The increase in non-performing assets is solely related to one relationship in the Company's commercial real estate portfolio for which the Company feels the risk of loss is nominal.

(c) Liquidity

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will be unable to meet our obligations as they become due because of an inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding. To manage liquidity risk, management has established a comprehensive management process for identifying, measuring, monitoring and controlling liquidity risk. Because of its critical importance to the viability of the Bank, liquidity risk management is fully integrated into our risk management processes. Critical elements of our liquidity risk management include: effective corporate governance consisting of oversight by the board of directors and active involvement by management; appropriate strategies, policies, procedures, and limits used to manage and mitigate liquidity risk; comprehensive liquidity risk measurement and monitoring systems (including assessments of the current and prospective cash flows or sources and uses of funds) that are commensurate with the complexity and business activities of the Bank; active management of intraday liquidity and collateral; an appropriately diverse mix of existing and potential future funding sources; adequate levels of highly liquid marketable securities free of legal, regulatory, or operational impediments, that can be used to meet liquidity needs in stressful situations; comprehensive contingency funding plans that sufficiently address potential adverse liquidity events and emergency cash flow requirements; and internal controls and internal audit processes sufficient to determine the adequacy of the institution’s liquidity risk management process.

The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity is provided by short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash, investment securities available-for-sale, various lines of credit available to us, and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally deposits.

Overall liquidity sources total $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2023. Our most liquid assets are comprised of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions, available-for-sale marketable investment securities and federal funds sold. Interest-bearing deposits in financial institutions totaled $164.4$149.4 million at September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, representing a decreasean increase of $182.6$43.9 million from $347.0 million at December 31, 2021 as the Company deployed excess liquidity to fund loan growth.2022. The fair value of the available-for-sale investment portfolio was $401.3$391.5 million at September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, a $58.1decrease of $4.87 million decrease from December 31, 2021.2022. We pledge portions of our investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, derivative positions and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, total investment securities pledged for these purposes comprised 53%56% of the estimated fair value of the investment portfolio, leaving $188.7$173.5 million of unpledged securities.

Other sources of funds available to meet daily needs include $439.7$462.4 million of borrowing capacity from the FHLB of Cincinnati, $303.2$315.7 million of borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s discount window and federal funds lines with correspondent banks totaling $165.0$145.0 million at September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. We also have the ability to issue an additional $188.2 million of brokered CDs based on internal limits.

The Company has a diversified deposit portfolio comprised 86% of customer deposits and 14% of brokered deposits. Among customer deposits, the largest concentration by industry is $45.0 million, or 1.9%, and the largest banking market accounts for $568.7 million or 23.9%. Correspondent Banking customers account for 10.1% of customer deposits. As of March 31, 2023 66.1% of deposits were insured or collateralized.

We have a large base of non-maturity customer deposits, defined as demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At March 31, 2023, such deposits totaled $2.0 billion and represented approximately 72% of our total deposits.

The principal source of cash for CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) is dividends paid to it as the sole shareholder of the Bank. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Bank was able to pay up to $85.3$94.1 million in dividends to the Parent Company without regulatory approval subject to the ongoing capital requirements of the Bank.

43


Accordingly, management currently believes that our funding sources are at sufficient levels to satisfy our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

(d) Capital Resources

At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, shareholders’ equity totaled $347.4 million, a decrease of $32.7 million from December 31, 2021.remained relatively stable at $353.9 million. The decrease was driven by a decline in the fair value of available for sale securities included withinincreases due to net income and other comprehensive income which more thanwere offset a $23.0 million increase in retained earnings.by the impact of CECL adoption on January 1, 2023 as well as dividend payments and share repurchases during the first quarter of 2023. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the Company and the Bank were well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions that, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, are not included in our consolidated balance sheet. We enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our clients. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. Most of these commitments mature within two years and are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Standby letters of credit are included in the determination of the amount of risk-based capital that the Company and the Bank are required to hold.

We enter into contractual loan commitments to extend credit, normally with fixed expiration dates or termination clauses, at specified rates and for specific purposes. Substantially all of our commitments to extend credit are contingent upon clients maintaining specific credit standards until the time of loan funding.

Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. In the event that the client does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, we would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, we would be entitled to seek recovery from the client. Our policies generally require that standby letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements.

We minimize our exposure to loss under loan commitments and standby letters of credit by subjecting them to the same credit approval and monitoring procedures as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. We assess the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit and establish a liability for probable credit losses. The effect on our revenue, expenses, cash flows and liquidity of the unused portions of these commitments cannot be reasonably predicted because there is no guarantee that the lines of credit will be used.

Our off-balance sheet arrangements are summarized in Note 86 of the consolidated financial statements.

(e) Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Report may includeincludes the following financial measures that have been prepared other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP financial measures”): tangible common equity, tangible book value per share of common stock,share; tangible book value per share of common stock less after-tax unrealized available for sale investment (gains) losses,losses; tangible common equity to tangible assets and tangible common equityequity; to tangible assets less after-tax unrealized available for sale investment (gains) losses. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures (i) provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, (ii) enable a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business, and (iii) allow investors to evaluate the Company’s performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry, bank stock analysts and bank regulators; however, the Company acknowledges that its non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use.

(f) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance to change the accounting for credit losses and modify the impairment model for certain debt securities. The amendments were originally supposed to be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for all organizations for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. However, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which finalizes effective date delays for private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and certain smaller reporting companies applying the credit losses standard. The Company is not required to adopt this standard until January 1, 2023. The Company has established a Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Steering Committee which includes the appropriate members of management to evaluate the impact this ASU will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and

42


financial statement disclosures. Additionally, the Company selected a third-party vendor to provide allowance for loan loss software as well as advisory services in developing a new methodology and a parallel model.

ASU 2022-02 ― Financial Instruments- Credit Losses- Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures:

In March 2022, the FASB issued troubled debt restructurings accounting guidance requiring entities to evaluate whether a modification provided to a borrower results in a new loan or continuation of an existing loan. The amendments enhance existing disclosures and require new disclosures for receivables when there has been a modification in contractual cash flows due to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. Additionally, the amendments require public business entities to disclose gross charge-off information by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. The guidance is effective for entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13 for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period. An entity should apply ASU 2022-02 prospectively. If an entity elects to early adopt ASU 2022-02 in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The Company is assessing ASU 2022-02 and its impact on its financial statements.

ASU 2019-05 ― Applicable to entities that hold financial instruments:

In May 2019, the FASB issued guidance to provide entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option, applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments will be effective for the Company upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 in fiscal year 2023. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements.

ASU 2020-04 ― Applicable to entities within the scope of Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform:

In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company continues to implement its transition plan towards cessation of LIBOR and the modification of its outstanding financial instruments with attributes that are either directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR. The Company expects to utilize the LIBOR transition relief allowed under ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, as applicable, and does not expect such adoption to have a material impact on its accounting and disclosures. The Company will continue to assess the impact as the reference rate transition approaches June 30, 2023.

(g) Impact of Inflation

The consolidated financial statements and related consolidated financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and practices within the banking industry which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in our market risk as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 from that presented in our 20212022 10-K. Information about our interest rate sensitivity is included in “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Interest Rate Simulation Sensitivity Analysis” of this Report and incorporated herein by this reference.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

AsThe Company, with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report, underReport. Based upon that evaluation, the supervision and with the participation of our management, including ourCompany’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Management applied its judgment in assessing the effectiveness of those controls and procedures, which by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance about management’s control objectives. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we cannot assure you that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that ourthe Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022 becausethe end of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below. In light of the material weakness, management performed additional procedures to validate the accuracy and completeness of the financial results impactedperiod covered by the control deficiencies. Such procedures included the validation of underlying data and detailed testing.

Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we identified the following deficiencies in the design of internal control over financial reporting for our general ledger account balancing.

1. Insufficient management review over general ledger accounts assigned to the Company's Operations Division led to certain accounts not being appropriately balanced.

2. Inadequate oversight and governance of the Company's general ledger accounts by the Company's Accounting Department led to the insufficient management review being unidentified.

All accounts have now been balanced as of September 30, 2022 resulting in a reclassification of certain balance sheet amounts and an increase in operating expense of $196,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, all of which are reflected in results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 in this report. Although the errors were not material to previous financial statements, we concluded that the combination of control deficiencies represented a material weakness.

Remediation of Material Weakness

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment and implementing measures designed to help ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated as soon as possible. We have made progress towards remediation and continue to implement our remediation plan for the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, which includes assigning each general ledger account an owner and second reviewer, implementing procedures for the Accounting Division to review and attest to each general ledger account, and ensuring our internal and external audit plans test the effectiveness of our general ledger account oversight. We will consider the material weakness remediated after the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time, and management has concluded, through testing, that the controls are operating effectively.Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as set forthThere have been no changes in the following sentences, no change in ourCompany’s internal control over financial reporting (as thatsuch term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or isare reasonably likely to materially affect, ourthe Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management determined, with respect to the general ledger accounts in question, that it did not adequately design and implement effective control activities which includes the information and communication necessary for management to evidence the implementation and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The previously noted control deficiency (related to several general ledger accounts not being balanced and related oversight and governance) was considered a material weakness. We expect that the remediation of this material weakness will be fully implemented and validated by the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.
