Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements


(1)	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Organization of ~~Holding~~the Company and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and these notes should be read in conjunction with the December 31, ~~2016~~2018 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 13, 2019 (the "2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K"). The Company has not materially changed its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in its 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Item (f) "Recent Accounting Pronouncements," under the subheading "Accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company," below in this Note 1.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company," "Enterprise," "we," or "our"), a Massachusetts corporation, ~~as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on~~ ~~March 14, 2017~~ ~~(the "2016~~ ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K"). The Company has not changed its accounting policies from those disclosed in its~~ ~~2016~~ ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K.~~

~~The Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements~~ include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Enterprise Bank and Trust Company, commonly referred to as Enterprise Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank is a Massachusetts trust company and state chartered commercial bank organized in 1989. Substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted through the Bank and its subsidiaries.

The Bank's subsidiaries include Enterprise Insurance Services, LLC and Enterprise ~~Investment~~Wealth Services, LLC, both organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, ~~for the purposes of engaging~~engage in insurance sales activities and ~~offering~~offer non-deposit investment products and services, respectively. In addition, the Bank has the following subsidiaries that are incorporated in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and classified as security corporations in accordance with applicable Massachusetts General Laws: Enterprise Security Corporation; Enterprise Security Corporation II; and Enterprise Security Corporation III. The security corporations, which hold various types of qualifying securities, are limited to conducting securities investment activities that the Bank itself would be allowed to conduct under applicable laws.

The Company's headquarters and the Bank's main office are located at 222 Merrimack Street in Lowell, Massachusetts. At September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, the Company had 24 full service ~~branches~~branch banking offices serving the Greater Merrimack Valley, Nashoba Valley and North Central regions of Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire (Southern Hillsborough and Rockingham counties). The Company also has received regulatory approval to open branches in Lexington, Massachusetts and North Andover, Massachusetts, and we anticipate that these offices will open in early 2020 and summer 2020, respectively. Through the Bank and its subsidiaries, the Company offers a range of commercial, residential and consumer loan products, deposit products and cash management services, ~~as well as investment advisory~~electronic and digital banking options, and insurance services. The Company also provides a range of wealth management, wealth services and trust services delivered via two channels, Enterprise Wealth Management and ~~insurance services.~~Enterprise Wealth Services. The services offered through the Bank and its subsidiaries are managed as one strategic unit and represent the Company's only reportable operating segment.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and the Massachusetts Division of Banks (the "Division") have regulatory authority over the Bank. The Bank is also subject to certain regulatory requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board") and, with respect to its New Hampshire branch operations, the New Hampshire Banking Department. The business and operations of the Company are subject to the regulatory oversight of the Federal Reserve Board. The Division also retains supervisory jurisdiction over the Company.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions for SEC Form 10-Q through the rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities law. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals for a fair presentation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements. Certain previous years' amounts in the audited consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year, or any future period.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions from September 30, ~~2017~~2019 through the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Form 10-Q") was filed with the SEC for potential recognition or disclosure as required by GAAP and determined that there were no material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure.

(b) ~~Critical Accounting~~Uses of Estimates

In preparing the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to exercise judgment in determining many of the methodologies, assumptions and estimates to be utilized. These assumptions and estimates affect the reported values of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet ~~date~~dates and income and expenses for the period then ended. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates should the assumptions and estimates used be incorrect or change over time due to changes in



~~Table of Contents~~	~~ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC.~~ ~~Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements~~

circumstances. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing ~~change~~changes in the economic environment and other factors will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements and results of operations in future periods.

As discussed in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the three most significant areas in which management applies critical assumptions and estimates ~~are~~are: the estimates of the allowance for loan losses, impairment review of investment securities, and the impairment review of goodwill. Refer to Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for accounting policies related to these significant estimates. ~~The Company has not changed its significant accounting policies from those disclosed in its~~ ~~2016~~ ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K.~~

Certain of the Company's derivative agreements contain provisions ~~that require the Company~~for collateral to ~~post collateral~~be posted if the derivative exposure exceeds a threshold amount. When the Company has pledged cash as collateral for this purpose, the cash is carried as restricted cash within "Interest-earning deposits." See Note 8, "Derivatives and Hedging Activities," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements below for more information about the Company's collateral related to its derivatives.

The Bank is also required by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston ("FRB") to maintain in reserves certain amounts of vault cash and/or deposits with the FRB. The average daily cash balance on hand for FRB reserve requirements included in "Cash and ~~cash equivalents.~~Due from Banks" was approximately $7.5 million, based on the two-week computation period encompassing September 30, 2019.

As a member of the ~~Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston ("FHLB"),~~FHLB, the Company is required to purchase certain levels of FHLB capital stock at par value in association with outstanding advances from the FHLB. From ~~time-to-time,~~time to time, the FHLB may initiate the repurchase, at par value, of "excess" levels of its capital stock held by member banks. This stock is classified as a restricted investment and is carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value. FHLB stock represents the only restricted investment held by the Company.

Management regularly reviews its holdings of FHLB stock for ~~other-than-temporary-impairment~~other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI"). Based on management's periodic review, the Company has not recorded any OTTI charges on this investment to date. If it was determined that a write-down of FHLB stock was required, impairment would be recognized through a charge to earnings.

See Note 2, "Investment Securities," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements below for additional information on management's OTTI review.

(d) Revenue Recognition-Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") Topic 606

While the majority of the Company's revenue is generated from contracts with customers, our primary sources of revenue, interest and dividend income (primarily loan interest income), are outside of the scope of ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers-Topic 606," and are accounted for under other ASC topics. The core principles of this standard require an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods and services to customers as performance obligations are satisfied.

The primary areas of income within the scope of ASC 606, wealth management fees and deposit and interchange fees, which are components of non-interest income on the Company's consolidated statements of income, are discussed below.

Wealth management fees consist of income generated through Enterprise Wealth Management and Enterprise Wealth Services. Enterprise Wealth Management income is primarily generated by managing customers' financial assets. Revenue is recognized as our performance obligation is completed each month. Enterprise Wealth Services revenue is generated through a third-party arrangement to refer, manage and service customers. For new sales and referrals along with transactional type charges, the performance obligation is based on a point in time and the payment is received and revenue is recognized in the



Table of Contents	ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC. Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

same month as the revenue-generating activity. For managing and servicing customers, revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed each month.

Deposit and interchange fees are comprised of deposit account related charges and income generated from electronic payment interchanges. Deposit account charges consist of certain transactional analysis fees net of earning balance credits, monthly account service fees, and transactional fees such as overdraft fees. Analysis and monthly account services fees are recognized over the period the service is performed. For transactional fees, the performance obligation and the revenue are recognized at a point of time and payment is typically received as the service is rendered. Interchange income is generated primarily from retail debit card transactions processed through the card payment network. The performance obligation and the revenue are recognized when the service is performed.

The following non-interest income components are not subject to ASC 606: income on bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI"), net gains/losses on sales of investment securities, and net gains on sales of loans, and are covered under other ASC topics. The remaining revenue items in non-interest income are not material.

See also Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional accounting policies on revenue recognition related to income generated on investments, gains and losses on debt security sales, net gains on loans held for sale, and loans.

(e) Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the states of Massachusetts and New Hampshire within the directives of the respective enacted tax legislation. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax expense or benefit attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at ~~currently enacted~~currently-enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities will be adjusted accordingly through the provision for income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company's policy is to classify interest resulting from underpayment of income taxes as income tax expense in the first period the interest would begin accruing according to the provisions of the relevant tax law. The Company classifies penalties resulting from underpayment of income taxes as income tax expense in the period for which the Company claims or expects to claim an uncertain tax position or in the period in which the Company's judgment changes regarding an uncertain tax position.

The income tax provisions will differ from the expense that would result from applying the federal statutory rate to income before taxes, due primarily to the impact of state tax expense, tax-exempt interest from certain investment securities, loans and ~~bank-owned life insurance.~~BOLI and tax impact from equity compensation activity.

The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits accrued as income tax liabilities or receivables or as deferred tax items at September 30, ~~2017~~2019. The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by taxing authorities for the ~~2013~~2015 through ~~2016~~2018 tax years.

~~(e) Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~Accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company~~

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU" or "Update") No. 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." ~~The new standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.~~

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017. Several aspects of the accounting are simplified including, generally: a) income tax consequences; b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; c) accounting for forfeitures; and d) classification on the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption, the most significant impact of this amendment resulted from the prospective application of current excess tax benefits and deficiencies being recognized in income tax expense, which would previously have been recognized in additional paid-in capital, in the reporting period in which they occur. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, this reduced the Company's provision for income taxes, increasing earnings by approximately $832 thousand. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized $789 thousand in additional paid-in-capital in this regard, which, if under the new ASU, would have been recognized as income tax benefit in the income statement. This amount, treated as discrete items in the period in which they occur, will vary from year to year as a function of the volume of share-based payments vested or exercised and the then current market price of the Company's stock in comparison to the compensation cost recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Additionally upon adoption, the Company made a policy election to record forfeitures as they occur rather than make use of an estimate. Using a modified retrospective approach, the Company recorded an immaterial cumulative effect adjustment from retained earnings to additional paid-in-capital. The other provisions did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

~~Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company (in order of effective date of implementation)~~

~~In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)."~~ This ASU is intended to create a single source of revenue guidance which is more principles based than current revenue guidance. The guidance affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services, or enters into contracts for the transfer of non-financial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date" to amend the effective date of ASU 2014-09. The amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The FASB has since issued additional related ASUs amendments intended to clarify certain aspects and improve understanding of the implementation guidance of Topic 606 but do not change the core principles of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Topic 606.

The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the ASU and its amendments on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations, and disclosures and does not currently plan to early adopt. Based on the Company's initial review, and because the largest portion of the Company's revenue, interest income and various loan fees, are specifically excluded from the scope of this ASU, and because the Company currently recognizes the majority of the remaining revenue sources in a manner that management believes is consistent with the new ASU, management believes that this new standard will not materially impact the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations or disclosures. The foregoing observations are subject to change as management completes their evaluation.

~~In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,"~~ ~~which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments.~~

~~Among other things, the new guidance:~~

Requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income;



~~Table of Contents~~	~~ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC.~~ ~~Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements~~

~~Requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; and~~

Requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

~~The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.~~

The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this ASU on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations and disclosures. Based on the Company's evaluation to date, management believes the more significant implications upon adoption of this ASU will be the potential recognition of changes in fair value of the Company's equity portfolio in net income. Under current GAAP, net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the equity portfolio, net of applicable income taxes, are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The net unrealized gain or loss on equity securities will fluctuate based on changes in the market value of the mutual funds and individual securities held in the portfolio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, other comprehensive losses, net of taxes, generated from the equity portfolio amounted to $670 thousand, compared to a gain of $178 thousand generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Any potential future changes in fair value of the equity portfolio recognized in net income will depend on the amount of dollars invested in the portfolio and the potential magnitude of changes in equity market values. The foregoing observations are subject to change as management completes their evaluation.

~~In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments."~~ The amendments are intended to reduce diversity in practice related to the presentation of eight specific cash flow issues. For public business entities that are SEC filers, such as the Company, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Because this amendment primarily impacts the presentation and classification of information, the Company does not expect this ASU to have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

~~In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash flows-Restricted Cash (Topic 230)."~~ The amendments in this Update clarify the inclusion of restricted cash in the cash and cash equivalents beginning-of-period and end-of period reconciliation on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities that are SEC filers, such as the Company, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Because this amendment primarily impacts the presentation and classification of information, the Company does not expect this ASU to have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

~~In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost."~~ The amendments in this Update outline the presentation, classification and disclosure requirements for service cost and other components of net benefit costs. For public business entities that are SEC filers, such as the Company, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Because this amendment primarily impacts the presentation and classification of information, the Company does not expect this ASU to have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

~~In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting."~~ The amendments in this Update apply to entities that change the terms of an outstanding share-based payment award. The amendments are intended to reduce diversity in practice as well as cost and complexity when applying guidance in Topic 718 to the modification of the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU provides guidance on the three modifications to share-based payment awards and conditions that must be met in order to exempt an entity from modification accounting under topic 718. The amendments in this Update apply prospectively to award modifications on or after the adoption date, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company currently does not expect that adoption of the ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, results of operations or disclosures.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842),"~~ which supersedes previous leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with



Table of Contents	ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC. Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements, with certain practical expedients available.

The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this ASU on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations and disclosures. Based on the Company's evaluation to date, management believes the more significant implication of this ASU on the Company relates to operating leases of our facilities, mainly branch leases. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had leases on 17 of its locations, including branches and part of its main campus, and expects that upon adoption of this ASU the balance sheet will reflect both lease liabilities, equal to the present value of lease payments, and right-of-use assets, equal to the lease liability plus payments made to lessors adjusted for prepaid or accrued rent and any initial direct cost incurred. In addition, the Company will recognize lease expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis similar to current operating leases. The straight-line expense will reflect the interest expense on the lease liability (effective interest method) and amortization of the right-of-use asset. Lease expense will be presented as a single line item in the operating expense section of the income statement. Management believes that lease expense under the new standard will generally approximate lease expense under current GAAP. The foregoing observations are subject to change as management completes their evaluation.(f) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

~~In March 2017,~~The tables below summarize recent accounting pronouncements issued by the ~~FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, "Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities."~~ Financial Accounting Standards Board~~The amendments shorten~~("FASB") that were either recently adopted by the ~~amortization period to~~Company or have not yet been adopted. For pronouncements not yet adopted, the ~~earliest call~~effective date listed below is in line with the required adoption date for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The accretion for securities held at a discount is not affected by this statement and remains unchanged. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective basis is required upon adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has assessed the impact of this ASU and does not expect that it will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations and disclosures upon adoption.

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments- Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments."~~ The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Previously, when credit losses were measured under GAAP, an entity generally only considered past events and current conditions in measuring the incurred loss and generally recognition of the full amount of credit losses was delayed until the loss was probable of occurring. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses.

The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.

Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP. However, the amendments in this Update require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. Unlike current GAAP, the ASU provides for reversals of credit losses in future period net income in situations where the estimate of loss declines.

An entity will apply the amendments in this Update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach). For public business entities, ~~that are SEC filers,~~ such as the Company, though certain accounting pronouncements may permit early adoption. For more detailed information regarding these pronouncements, refer to the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 is permitted.FASB's Accounting Standards Updates("ASU").

The Company has established an implementation committee and an enterprise-wide implementation plan for this ASU, which will consider the impact to operations, financial results, disclosures and controls. At present, the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 on the Company's operations, financial results, disclosures, and controls is unknown.



Accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company

Standard/Adoption Date	Description	Effect on Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASC Topic 842) January 1, 2019	This ASU supersedes previous leasing guidance in Topic 840, and lessees are now required to recognize lease (right-of-use or "ROU") assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months.	See Note 5, "Leases," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, contained below, for further information on the impact of the standard's adoption on the Company.
ASU 2017-02, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities January 1, 2019	The objective of the ASU is to better align hedge accounting with an organization's risk management activities in the financial statements. In addition, the ASU simplifies the application of hedge accounting guidance in areas where practice issues exist. The amendments expand the strategies that qualify for hedge accounting, change how many hedging relationships are presented in the financial statements and simplify the application of hedge accounting in certain situations, reducing the operational complexities associated with certain existing strategies. New or modified disclosures are required, primarily for fair value and cash flow hedges.	The Company currently does not hold any instruments that meet hedge accounting requirements and therefore the adoption of this ASU in January 2019 did not have an impact on the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, results of operations or disclosures for the periods covered by the Form 10-Q, however, the Company may utilize hedging strategies in the future.
ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation-Stock-Based Compensation (ASU Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Shared-Based Payment Accounting January 1, 2019	The amendments in the ASU expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees except for share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract. Additionally, Topic 718 has been updated for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period).	The adoption of this standard in January 2019 did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, results of operations or disclosures for the periods covered by the Form 10-Q. See Note 9, "Stockholders' Equity."

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)-Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment."~~ The main provision in this ASU eliminated Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test and instead requires an entity to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value as long as the amount recognized doesn't exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. For public business entities that are SEC filers, such as the Company, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Goodwill carried on the Company’s consolidated financial statements was $5.7 million at both September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. This asset is related to the Company’s acquisition of two branch offices in July 2000. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2017-01 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments January 1, 2020	The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Previously, when credit losses were measured under GAAP, an entity generally only considered past events and current conditions in measuring the incurred loss and generally recognition of the full amount of credit losses was delayed until the loss was probable of occurring. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, reflect an entity's current estimate of all expected credit losses (commonly known as "CECL"). The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the report amount. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.

An entity will apply the amendments in this ASU through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach).	As of September 30, 2019, the Company continues to work through the implementation plan, including reviewing and validating the methodology and assumptions to be utilized, and is on target for adoption of the new credit standard on January 1, 2020. Implementation will be recorded through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings⁽¹⁾. The Company is still assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 on its operations, financial results, disclosures, and controls. ⁽¹⁾In December 2018, banking regulators issued a final rule, effective April 1, 2019, that addresses the regulatory capital treatment of credit loss allowances under the CECL methodology and allows banking organizations an option to phase in the day-one regulatory capital effects of CECL adoption over three years. For regulatory capital purposes the Company will phase in the adoption adjustment over the allowable three-year phase in period.
ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASU Topic 350)- Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment January 1, 2020	The main provision in this ASU eliminated Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test and instead requires an entity to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount.

ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (ASU Topic 820)-Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement January 1, 2020	The amendments in this ASU modify the disclosure requirements primarily related to level 3 fair value measurements of the fair value hierarchy.	The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2018-13 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations because this ASU primarily relates to disclosure requirements.

Additionally, these capitalized implementation costs are required to be reviewed for impairment in accordance with current GAAP for internal-use software. The amendments in this ASU should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.

The adoption of ASU No. 2018-14 will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and results of operations because this ASU primarily relates to disclosure requirements and the balances of the benefit plans impacted by this ASU are immaterial to the Company.

At Included in municipal securities were tax exempt municipal securities with fair values totaling $100.1 million and $107.3 million at September 30, ~~2017, the equity portfolio was comprised of investments in individual common stock of financial services entities.~~2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

As of the dates reflected in the tables above, all of the ~~Company’s investment~~Company's debt securities were classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value.

Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on ~~investments~~debt securities available-for-sale, net of applicable income taxes, are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The net unrealized gain or loss in the Company's debt security portfolio fluctuates as market interest rates rise and fall. Due to the ~~predominantly~~ fixed rate nature of this portfolio, as market rates fall, the value of the portfolio rises, and as market rates rise, the value of the portfolio declines. The unrealized gains or losses on debt securities will also decline as the securities approach maturity. Unrealized ~~gains~~losses on debt securities that are deemed OTTI are generally charged to earnings, as described further in Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," under Item (e), "Investments," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Gains or losses will be recognized in the income statement if the securities are sold. However, if an unrealized loss on a debt security portfolio is deemed to be other than temporary, the credit loss portion is charged to earnings and the noncredit portion is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The net unrealized gain or loss on equity securities will fluctuate based on changes in the market value of the mutual funds and individual securities held in the portfolio. Unrealized gains or losses will be recognized in the statements of income if the securities are sold. However, if an unrealized loss on an equity security is deemed to be other than temporary prior to a sale, the loss is charged to earnings.

The following tables summarize investments (debt and equity) having temporary impairment, due to the fair market values having declined below the amortized costs of the individual investments, and the period that the investments have been temporarily impaired at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

~~Table of Contents~~	~~ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC.~~ ~~Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements~~

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not record any fair value impairment charges on its investments. Management regularly reviews the portfolio for securities with unrealized losses that are other-than-temporarily impaired. At September 30, 2017, management attributes the unrealized losses in the portfolio to increases in current market yields compared to the yields at the time the investments were purchased by the Company for debt securities and the impact of market value fluctuations on the equity portion of our portfolio. As of September 30, 2017, management did not consider its debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired because (1) the decline in market value is not attributable to a fundamental deterioration in quality of the securities or the issuers, and (2) the Company did not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to, sell those investments prior to a market price recovery or maturity with recovery of the amortized cost. The unrealized losses in equity investments as of September 30, 2017 were not material.

In assessing the Company's investments in federal agency mortgage-backed securities and federal agency obligations, the contractual cash flows of these investments are guaranteed by the respective government sponsored enterprise (FHLMC, FNMA, FFCB, or FHLB) or wholly-owned government corporation (GNMA). Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the par value of the Company's investments. Management's assessment of other debt securities within the portfolio includes reviews of market pricing, ongoing credit quality evaluations, assessment of the investments' materiality, and duration of the investments' unrealized loss position. In addition, the Company utilizes an outside registered investment adviser to manage the corporate and municipal bond portfolios, within prescribed guidelines set by management, and to provide assistance in assessing the credit risk of those portfolios. At September 30, 2017, the Company's corporate and municipal bond portfolios did not contain any securities below investment grade, as reported by major credit rating agencies. For equities and funds, management's assessment includes the severity of the declines, whether it is unlikely that the security or fund will completely recover its unrealized loss within a reasonable time period and if the equity security or fund exhibits fundamental deterioration.

See "Financial Condition," in Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis," under the heading "Investments" in this Form 10-Q for additional information about changes in the net unrealized gains (losses) on investments.

~~The contractual maturity distribution at~~ ~~September 30, 2017~~ ~~of total debt securities was as follows:~~

(Dollars in thousands) Amortized Cost Fair Value
Due in one year or less $ 16,217
$ 16,262
Due after one, but within five years 112,615
113,439
Due after five, but within ten years 117,552
118,680
Due after ten years 134,132
134,515
Total debt securities $ 380,516
$ 382,896

Scheduled contractual maturities shown above may not reflect the actual maturities of the investments. The actual MBS/CMO cash flows likely will be faster than presented above due to prepayments and amortization. Similarly, included in the fair value of debt securities above are callable securities, comprised of municipal securities and corporate bonds totaling $68.1 million, which can be redeemed by the issuer prior to the maturity presented above. Management considers these factors when evaluating the interest rate risk in the Company's asset-liability management program.

From time to time, the Company may pledge securities as collateral for deposit account balances of municipal customers, and for borrowing capacity with the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (the "FRB"). The fair value of securities pledged as collateral for these purposes was $374.4 million at September 30, 2017.

Equity Securities

~~- Commercial loans:~~

~~Commercial real estate loans include loans secured by both owner-use~~The Company held equity securities with a fair value of $1.4 million at September 30, 2019 and ~~non-owner occupied real estate.~~December 31, 2018. These ~~loans~~investments are typically secured by a variety of commercial and industrial property types, including one-to-four and multi-family apartment buildings, office, industrial or mixed-use facilities, strip shopping centers, or other commercial properties,accounted for under ASC Topic 321, "Investments-Equity Securities," and are ~~generally guaranteed by~~recorded on the ~~principals~~Company's consolidated balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the Company's consolidated income statement as a component of ~~the borrower. Commercial real estate loans generally have repayment periods~~"Other Income." The net fair value changes of ~~approximately fifteen to twenty-five years. Variable interest rate loans have~~equity securities recognized as a ~~variety~~component of ~~adjustment terms and underlying interest rate indices, and are generally fixed for an initial period before periodic rate adjustments begin.~~

Commercial and industrial loans include seasonal revolving lines of credit, working capital loans, equipment financing (including equipment leases), and term loans. Also included in commercial and industrial loans are loans partially guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA"), and loans under various programs and agencies. Commercial and industrial credits may be unsecured loans and lines to financially strong borrowers, loans secured in whole or in part by real estate unrelated to the principal purpose of the loan or secured by inventories, equipment, or receivables, and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrower. Variable rate loans and lines in this portfolio have interest rates that are periodically adjusted, with loans generally having fixed initial periods. Commercial and industrial loans have average repayment periods of ~~one~~ to ~~seven~~ ~~years.~~

Commercial construction loans include the development of residential housing and condominium projects, the development of commercial and industrial use property, and loans for the purchase and improvement of raw land. These loans are secured in whole or in part by underlying real estate collateral and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowers. Construction lenders work to cultivate long-term relationships with established developers. The Company limits"Other Income" is dependent on the amount of ~~financing provided to any single developer for~~dollars invested in equities and the ~~construction~~magnitude of ~~properties built on~~changes in equity market values.

Commercial construction loans generally are variable rate loans and lines with ~~interest rates that are periodically adjusted and generally have terms of~~ ~~one~~ to ~~three~~ ~~years.~~

From time to time, the Company participates with other banks in the financing of certain commercial projects. Participating loans with other institutions provide banks the opportunity to retain customer relationships and reduce credit risk exposure among each participating bank, while providing customers with larger credit vehicles than the individual bank might be willing or able to offer independently. In some cases, the Company may act as the lead lender, originating and servicing the loans, but participating out a portion of the ~~funding~~portfolio invested in common stock of individual entities in the financial services industry.

Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the financial obligation or performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. If the letter of credit is drawn upon, a loan is created for the customer, generally a commercial loan, with the same criteria associated with similar commercial loans.

~~(4)~~	~~Allowance for Loan Losses~~

Allowance for probable loan losses methodology

On a quarterly basis, management prepares an estimate of the allowance necessary to cover estimated probable credit losses. The Company uses a systematic methodology to measure the amount of estimated loan loss exposure inherent in the portfolio for purposes of establishing a sufficient allowance for loan losses. The methodology makes use of specific reserves for loans individually evaluated and deemed impaired, and general reserves for larger ~~groups~~pools of homogeneous loans, which are collectively evaluated relying on a combination of qualitative and quantitative factors that may affect credit quality of the pool.

There have been no material changes to the Company's underwriting practices, credit risk management system, or to the allowance assessment methodology used to estimate loan loss exposure as reported in ~~the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to~~ Note 4, "Allowance for Loan Losses," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements contained in the ~~2016~~Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, ~~for further discussion of management's methodology used to estimate a sufficient allowance for loan losses, the credit risk management function and adversely classified loan rating system.~~

Credit quality indicators

Early detection of credit issues is critical to minimize credit losses. Accordingly, management regularly monitors internal credit quality indicators such as, among others, the risk classification of ~~individual~~adversely classified loans, ~~individual review of problem assets,~~ past due and non-accrual loans, impaired and restructured loans, and the level of foreclosure ~~activity, as well as trends in the general levels of these indicators.~~activity. These credit quality indicators are discussed below.

Adversely classified loans

The Company's loan risk rating system classifies loans depending on risk of loss characteristics. The classifications range



Table of Contents	ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC. Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

~~Adversely classified loans~~

The Company's loan risk rating system classifies loans depending on risk of loss characteristics. Loans which are evaluated to be of weaker credit quality are placed on the "watch credit list" and reviewed on a more frequent basis by management. The classifications range from "substantially risk free" for the highest quality loans and loans that are secured by cash collateral, through a satisfactory range of "minimal," "moderate," "better than average," and "average" risk, to the regulatory problem-asset classifications of "criticized," for loans that may need additional monitoring, and the more severe adverse classifications of "substandard," "doubtful," and "loss" based on criteria established under banking regulations. Loans which are evaluated to be of weaker credit quality are placed on the "watch credit list" and reviewed on a more frequent basis by management.

Adversely classified loans may be accruing or in non-accrual status and may be additionally designated as impaired or restructured, or some combination thereof.

The following tables present the Company's credit risk profile for each ~~class of loan in its~~ portfolio classification by internally assigned adverse risk rating category as of the periods ~~indicated.~~ indicated:

At September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, all loans past due 90 days or more were carried as non-accrual, in addition to those loans that were less than 90 days past due where reasonable doubt existed as to the full and timely collection of interest or principal that have also been designated as non-accrual, despite their payment due status shown in the tables above.

Non-accrual loans that were not adversely classified amounted to $6120 thousand at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and $~~220~~81 thousand at December 31, ~~2016~~2018. These balances primarily represented the guaranteed portions of non-performing SBA loans. The majority of the non-accrual loan balances were also carried as impaired loans during the periods noted and are discussed further below.

The ratio of non-accrual loans to total loans amounted to ~~0.57%~~0.49% at both September 30, ~~2017, and~~ ~~0.47%~~2019 atand December 31, ~~2016~~2018.

At September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, additional funding commitments for non-accrual loans ~~was~~were not material.

Impaired loans

Impaired loans are individually significant loans for which management considers it probable that not all amounts due (principal and interest) will be collected in accordance with the original contractual terms will be collected. Impaired loans are individually evaluated for credit loss and a specific allowance reserve is assigned for the amount of the estimated probable credit loss. The majority of impaired loans are included within the non-accrual balances; however, not every loan on non-accrual status has been designated as impaired.terms. Impaired loans include loans that have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"), see ~~"Trouble debt restructurings"~~"Troubled Debt Restructurings" below. Impaired loans are individually evaluated and exclude large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, which are collectively evaluated for impairment, and loans that are measured at fair value, unless the loan is amended in a TDR.

The carrying value of impaired loans amounted to $31.2 million and $31.5 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Total accruing impaired loans amounted to $19.0 million and $19.7 million at September 30, 2019 and

At September 30, ~~2017~~2019, additional funding commitments for impaired loans ~~totaled~~ ~~$414 thousand~~.were not material. The Company's obligation to fulfill the additional funding commitments on impaired loans is generally contingent on the borrower's compliance with the terms of the credit agreement. If the borrower is not in compliance, additional funding commitments may or may not be made at the Company's discretion.

Troubled debt restructurings

Loans are designated as a TDR when, as part of an agreement to modify the original contractual terms of the loan as a result of financial difficulties of the borrower, the Bank grants the borrower a concession on the terms that would not otherwise be considered. Typically, such concessions may consist of one or a combination of the following: a reduction in interest rate to a below market rate, taking into account the credit quality of the ~~note,~~note; extension of additional credit based on receipt of adequate ~~collateral,~~collateral; or a deferment or reduction of payments (principal or interest) which materially alters the Bank's position or significantly extends the note's maturity date, such that the present value of cash flows to be received is materially less than those contractually established at the loan's origination. All loans that are modified are reviewed by the Company to identify if a TDR has occurred. TDR loans are included in the impaired loan category and, as such, these loans are individually reviewed and evaluated, and a specific reserve is assigned for the amount of the estimated probable credit loss.

Total TDR loans, included in the impaired loan balances above, as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018, were $~~23.6~~22.9 million and $~~27.0~~23.1 million, respectively. TDR loans on accrual status amounted to $~~17.3~~19.0 million and $~~22.4~~19.4 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018, respectively. TDR loans included in non-performing loans amounted to $~~6.3 million~~ ~~and~~ ~~$4.6~~3.9 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and $3.7 million at December 31, ~~2016~~2018~~, respectively.~~. The Company continues to work with customers ~~particularly commercial relationships,~~ and enters into loan modifications (which may or may not be TDRs) to the extent deemed to be necessary or appropriate while attempting to achieve the best mutual outcome given the individual financial circumstances and future prospects of the borrower.

At September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, additional funding commitments for TDR loans totaled $390 thousand. The Company's obligation to fulfill the additional funding commitments on TDR loans is generally contingent on the borrower's compliance with the terms of the credit agreement.

Other real estate owned ("OREO")

Real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure proceedings or the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as OREO. When property is acquired, it is recorded at estimated fair value of the property acquired, less estimated costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis and carried on the consolidated balance sheet in the line item "Prepaid expenses and other assets." The estimated fair value is based on market appraisals and the Company’s internal analysis. Any loan balance in excess of the estimated realizable fair value on the date of transfer is charged to the allowance for loan losses on that date. All costs incurred thereafter in maintaining the property, as well as subsequent declines in fair value are charged to non-interest expense.

The Company ~~carried~~had no OREO at September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, December 31, ~~2016~~2018 or September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, there was one property added to OREO that was subsequently sold resulting in net gains of $34 thousand. There were no ~~additions,~~ sales or subsequent write downs onof OREO during the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017 or 2016.~~2018.

At both September 30, ~~2017,~~2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process according to local requirements of the applicable ~~jurisdictions with carrying amounts totaling $101 thousand compared with $200 thousand at December 31, 2016.~~jurisdictions.

Allowance for loan loss activity

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the specified balance sheet dates. On a quarterly basis, management prepares an estimate of the allowance necessary to cover estimated probable credit losses. The Company maintains the allowance at a level that it deems adequate to absorb all reasonably anticipated probable losses from specifically known and other credit risks associated with the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses, a direct charge to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes that the collectability of the loan principal is unlikely. Recoveries on loans previously charged-off are credited to the allowance.



~~Table of Contents~~	~~ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC.~~ ~~Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements~~

The allowance for loan losses amounted to ~~$33.2~~$33.9 million at September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, compared to ~~$31.3~~$33.8 million at December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, and ~~$31.6~~$34.5 million at September 30, 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, the provision for loan losses amounted to $1.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The decrease in the provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was due primarily to generally improving credit quality metrics and underlying collateral values, partially offset by the higher level of loan growth during the 2017 period, as compared to the 2016 period.

2018. The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was ~~1.51%~~1.37% at September 30, ~~2017, 1.55%~~2019, 1.42% at December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and ~~1.59%~~1.49% at September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. Based on management's judgment as to the existing credit risks inherent in the loan portfolio, as discussed above under the heading "Credit Quality Indicators," management believes that the Company's allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses from specifically known and other probable credit risks associated with the portfolio as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019.

Changes in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio ~~segment~~classification for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 are presented below:

⁽¹⁾(5)Leases	~~Brokered CDs $250,000 and under~~

~~Total customer deposits (deposits excluding brokered deposits)~~As of September 30, 2019, the Company had 15 operating real estate leases. The Company's leased facilities are contracted under various non-cancelable operating leases, most of which provide options to the Company to extend the lease periods and include ~~reciprocal money market deposits~~periodic rent adjustments. While the Company typically exercises its option to extend lease terms, the lease contains provisions that allow the Company, upon notification, to terminate the lease at the end of the lease term, or any option period. Several leases also provide the Company the right of first refusal should the property be offered for sale or purchase options at specified periods mutually agreeable to the parties. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company finalized the purchase of one of the leased buildings in its main campus.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." Under this ASU, as amended, lessees are required to recognize lease ROU assets and ~~CDs received from participating banks in nationwide deposit networks~~lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The lease liability represents the present value of the future lease payments. The ROU asset includes the lease liability, lease prepayments and initial direct costs, less fixed payment lease liabilities. For the Company, this ASU primarily impacted operating leases on our facilities, mainly branch leases, and as a result ~~of our customers electing to participate in Company offered programs which allow for full FDIC insurance. Essentially, the equivalent of the customers' original deposited funds comes back to~~ the Company ~~as customer deposits within the appropriate category under total deposits~~recorded, on ~~the~~its consolidated balance ~~sheet. The Company's balances in these reciprocal products were $222.7~~sheet a lease liability of $18.0 million and ~~$281.6~~ROU asset of $19.0 million ~~at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.~~

~~See Note 12, "Fair Value Measurements," below for further information regarding the Company's fair value measurements for deposits.~~


~~(6)~~	~~Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debt~~

~~Borrowed funds, consisting of FHLB borrowings, amounted~~on January 1, 2019 related to ~~$149.3 million at~~ ~~September 30, 2017, compared to~~ ~~$10.7 million~~ at ~~December 31, 2016~~.these leases.

Upon adoption of this ASU, the Company elected the following practical expedients:

to not reassess, among other things, the historical lease classification, and

to use hindsight to assess lease terms and impairment of the initial ROU asset.

The Company ~~also carried subordinated debt of~~ ~~$14.8 million~~ ~~(net of deferred issuance costs) at both~~ ~~September 30, 2017~~ ~~and December 31, 2016, which consisted of $15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes (the "Notes"), issued in January 2015,~~excludes leases with a ~~15 year term. The Notes are intended~~term of 12 months or less from the recorded lease liability and ROU asset and accounts for lease and non-lease components (such as common area maintenance) separately. In order to ~~qualify~~calculate the lease liability, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate as ~~Tier 2 capital for~~the discount rate to determine the net present value of the lease liability. In determining the term of a lease, the Company included options renewal periods that it considered reasonably certain to exercise, which generally resulted in the inclusion of all lease option periods.

The Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis in the "Occupancy and Equipment Expenses" line item within the non-interest expense section of the consolidated income statement. Lease expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $322 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively. Variable lease costs and short-term lease expenses included in lease expense during this period were immaterial.

The weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases at September 30, 2019 was 27.5 years, and the weighted average discount rate was 3.79%.

At September 30, 2019, the remaining undiscounted cash flows by year of these lease liabilities were as follows:

(7)	Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debt

The Company had $4.2 million in borrowed funds at September 30, 2019 linked to outstanding commercial loans under various community reinvestment programs of the FHLB. At December 31, 2018, borrowed funds consisted of FHLB borrowings, primarily overnight advances, amounting to $100.5 million.

The Company had outstanding subordinated debt (net of deferred issuance costs) of $14.9 million at both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which consisted of $15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") issued in January 2015, with a 15-year term. Original debt issuance costs were $190 thousand and have been netted against the subordinated debt on the consolidated balance sheet in accordance with accounting guidance. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Notes.

The Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes and pay interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per annum through January 30, 2025, after which floating rates apply. Refer to Note 7, "Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debt," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information about the Company's subordinated debt.

See Note ~~12, "Fair Value Measurements,~~2, "Investments," ~~below~~and Note 3, "Loans," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, contained above, for further information regarding securities and loans pledged for borrowed funds. Refer to the "Liquidity" and "Borrowed Funds" sections in the "Financial Condition" section in Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation," for additional information about other sources of funding available to the Company and the Company's ~~fair value measurements for borrowed funds and subordinated debt.~~borrowing capacity.


~~(7)~~(8)	Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Interest rate lock commitments related to the origination of mortgage loans that will be sold are considered derivative instruments. The commitments to sell loans are also considered derivative instruments. The Company generally does not pool mortgage loans for sale, but instead, sells the loans on an individual basis. To reduce the net interest rate exposure arising from its loan sale activity, the Company enters into the commitment to sell these loans at essentially the same time that the interest rate lock commitment is quoted on the origination of the loan. The Company estimates the fair value of these derivatives based on current secondary mortgage market prices. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the estimated fair values of these derivative instruments were considered to be immaterial.

The Company may use interest-rate contract swaps as part of its interest-rate risk management strategy. Interest-rate swap agreements are entered into as hedges against future interest-rate fluctuations on specifically identified assets or liabilities. The Company did not have derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flow hedges at either September 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

The Company has a ~~“Back-to-Back Swap”~~"Back-to-Back Swap" program whereby the Bank enters into an ~~interest rate~~interest-rate swap with a qualified commercial banking customer and simultaneously enters into an equal and opposite ~~interest rate~~interest-rate swap with a swap counterparty. The customer ~~interest rate~~interest-rate swap agreement allows commercial banking customers to convert a floating-rate loan payment to a fixed-rate payment.

The transaction structure effectively minimizes the ~~Bank’s net~~Bank's interest rate risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Customer-related credit risk is minimized by the cross collateralization of the loan and the ~~interest rate~~interest-rate swap ~~agreement.~~agreement to the customer's underlying collateral.

Back-to-Back ~~Swaps~~swaps are not ~~speculative but~~speculative; rather, the transactions result from a service the Company provides to certain commercial customers. Back-to-Back ~~Swaps~~swaps do not meet hedge accounting requirements and therefore changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the counterparty swaps, which have an offsetting relationship, are recognized directly in earnings. As a result of this offsetting relationship, there were no net gains or losses recognized in income on Back-to-Back ~~Swaps~~swaps during the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 or September 30, ~~2016.~~2018.

~~The Company had six~~Each Back-to-Back swap transaction consists of two interest-rate swaps (a customer swap and offsetting counterparty swap) and amounted to a total number of eight interest-rate swaps outstanding at both September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, 2018, with an aggregate notional amount of ~~$29.6~~$36.9 million ~~compared to four interest-rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $26.7~~and $37.7 million ~~at December 31, 2016.~~on those respective dates.

Asset derivatives are included in the line item "Prepaid expenses and other assets," and liability derivatives are included in ~~prepaid~~the "Accrued expenses and other ~~assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities~~liabilities" line item on the consolidated balance sheets, respectively. Interest-rate swaps with the counterparty are subject to master netting agreements, while interest-rate swaps with customers are not.

By using derivative financial instruments, the Company exposes itself to ~~counterparty credit~~counterparty-credit risk. Credit risk is the risk of failure by the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative is negative, the Company owes the counterparty and, therefore, it does not possess credit risk. The credit risk in derivative

The Company had no credit risk exposure at September 30, 2019 and $678 thousand at December 31, 2018, respectively, relating to interest-rate swaps with counterparties. When the Company has credit risk exposure, collateral is received from the counterparty and held by the Company. Collateral held by the Company is restricted and not considered an asset of the Company; therefore, it is not carried on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. If the Company posts collateral, the cash is restricted, it is considered an asset of the Company and is carried on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The Company posted cash collateral of $940 thousand at September 30, 2019, while at December 31, 2018, the Company held cash collateral of $850 thousand.

Interest-rate lock commitments related to the origination of mortgage loans that will be sold are considered derivative instruments. The commitments to sell loans are also considered derivative instruments. The Company generally does not pool mortgage loans for sale, but instead sells the loans on an individual basis. To reduce the net interest-rate exposure arising from its loan sale activity, the Company enters into the commitment to sell these loans at essentially the same time that the interest-rate lock commitment is quoted on the origination of the loan. The Company estimates the fair value of these derivatives based on current secondary mortgage market prices. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of the Company's interest-rate lock commitments and commitments to sell these mortgage loans were deemed immaterial.

The Company may use interest-rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest-rate swap agreements may be entered into as hedges against future interest-rate fluctuations on specifically identified assets or liabilities. The Company had no derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flow hedges at September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

The Company's stock incentive plans permit the Board ~~of Directors~~ to grant, under various terms, stock options (for the purchase of newly issued shares of common stock), common stock, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to officers and other employees, non-employee directors and consultants. ~~These plans also allow for newly issued shares of common stock to be issued without restrictions to officers and other employees, directors and consultants.~~

The Company issues stock options and restricted stock awards to officers and other employees and restricted stock awards and stock compensation in lieu of cash fees to non-employee directors. The restricted stock awards allow for the non-forfeitable receipt of dividends, and the voting of all shares, whether or not vested, throughout the vesting periods at the same proportional level as common shares outstanding. The unvested restricted stock awards are the Company's only participating securities and are included in shares outstanding. Unvested participating restricted awards amounted to ~~125,134~~102,849 shares and ~~141,580~~91,708 shares as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, respectively. See Note 12, "Earnings per Share," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, contained below, for additional information regarding unvested participating restricted awards and the Company's earnings per share calculation.

Pursuant to GAAP, the Company initially excludes these unrealized holding gains and losses from net income; however, they are later reported as reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income when the debt securities are sold. When securities are sold, the reclassification of realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included on the Consolidated Statements of Income under the "non-interest income" subheading on the line item "net gains (losses) on sales of investment securities" and the related income tax expense is included in the line item "provision for income taxes," both of which are also detailed on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income under the subheading "reclassification adjustment for net gains (losses) included in net income."

See "Capital Resources" in Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis," of this Form 10-Q for the Company's capital ratios and capital adequacy assessment as of September 30, 2019.

~~(9)~~(10)	Supplemental Retirement ~~Plan~~Plans and Other ~~Post-retirement~~Post-Retirement Benefit Obligations

Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan ("SERP")

The Company has salary continuation agreements with two of its current executive officers and one former executive officer. These salary continuation agreements provide for predetermined fixed-cash supplemental retirement benefits to be provided for a period of 20 years after each individual reaches a defined "benefit age." The individuals covered under the SERP have reached the defined benefit age and are receiving payments under the plan. Additionally, the Company has not recognized service costs in the current or prior year as each officer had previously attained their individually defined benefit age and was fully vested under the plan.

This non-qualified plan represents a direct liability of the Company, and as such has no specific assets set aside to settle the benefit obligation. The ~~funded status is the~~ aggregate amount accrued, or the "accumulated benefit obligation," ~~which~~ is equal to the present value of the benefits to be provided to the employee or any beneficiary. Because the Company's benefit obligations provide for predetermined fixed-cash payments, the Company does not have any unrecognized costs to be included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Benefits paid under the plan amounted to $69 thousand and $207 thousand for both the respective three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.

Additionally, on December 11, 2018, the Board approved and adopted the Enterprise Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement and Deferred Compensation Plan. The plan is unfunded and is maintained for the purpose of providing deferred compensation to a certain group of management employees. Please refer to Exhibit 10.17 attached to the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 22, 2019 for a more complete description of the plan.

Total ~~net periodic benefit costs, comprised of interest costs only,~~expenses for both these plans were ~~$29~~$105 thousand and ~~$87~~$324 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, respectively, compared to ~~$31~~$56 thousand and ~~$93~~$168 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2016, respectively.~~

~~Benefits paid amounted to $69 thousand and $207 thousand for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016,~~2018, respectively. The Company anticipates accruing an additional ~~$29~~$105 thousand ~~to the SERP~~ in total for these SERPs during the remainder of ~~2017~~2019.

Supplemental Life Insurance

The Company has provided supplemental life insurance through split-dollar life insurance arrangements for certain executive and senior officers on whom the Bank owns ~~bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI").~~BOLI.



Table of Contents	ENTERPRISE BANCORP, INC. Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

These arrangements provide a death benefit to the officer's designated beneficiaries that extend to postretirement periods for some of the supplemental life insurance plans. The Company has recognized a liability for these future postretirement benefits.

These non-qualified plans represent a direct liability of the Company and, as such, the Company has no specific assets set aside to settle the benefit obligation. The funded status is the aggregate amount accrued, or the "accumulated postretirement benefit obligation," which is the present value of the post-retirement benefits associated with this arrangement.

Total net periodic post-retirement benefit cost for supplemental life insurance plans, which consisted mainly of interest costs, were $50 thousand and $149 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to $45 thousand and $134 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

As of September 30, ~~2017, an aggregate of 446,860~~2019, there remained 273,074 shares ~~remain~~ available for future grants under this plan.

Additionally, the ~~plans.~~Enterprise Bancorp, Inc 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, expired in March 2019 with 87,849 unissued shares. As such, this plan is closed for future grants, although awards previously granted under this plan remain outstanding and may be exercised through 2028.

The Company's stock-based compensation expense related to these plans includes stock options and stock awards to officers and other employees included in salary and benefits expense, and stock awards and stock compensation in lieu of cash fees to non-employee directors both included in other operating expenses. Total stock-based compensation expense was ~~$467~~$461 thousand and $~~1.3~~1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019, respectively, compared to ~~$444~~$501 thousand and ~~$1.3~~$1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2016~~2018, respectively.

A tax benefit associated with employee exercises and vesting of stock compensation of approximately $3 thousand and $131 thousand was recorded as a reduction of the Company's income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared with $39 thousand and $274 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. These amounts, treated as discrete tax items in the period in which they occur, will vary from year to year as a function of the volume of share-based payments vested or exercised and the then-current market price of the Company's stock in comparison to the compensation cost recognized in the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements.

Stock Option Awards

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock option awards of ~~$49~~$48 thousand and $~~152~~144 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019, respectively, compared to ~~$63~~$48 thousand and $~~205~~150 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2016~~2018, respectively.

Vested options are only exercisable while the employee remains employed with the Bank and for a limited time thereafter. For all awards, if a grantee’s employment or other service relationship, such as service as a director, is terminated for any reason, then any stock options granted that have not vested as of the time of such termination generally must be forfeited, unless the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, waives such forfeiture requirement.

If a grantee's employment or other service relationship, such as service as a director, is terminated for any reason, then any shares of restricted stock granted that have not vested as of the time of such termination generally must be forfeited, unless the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, waives such forfeiture requirement.

The restricted stock awards allow for the receipt of dividends, and the voting of all shares, whether or not vested, throughout the vesting periods at the same proportional level as common shares outstanding.

~~Upon vesting, restricted stock awards may be net share-settled to cover payment for employee tax obligations, resulting in shares of common stock being reacquired by the Company.~~

For further information regarding the Company's stock awards, see Note 9, "Stockholders' Equity," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, contained above, under the caption "Shares Authorized and Share Issuance." There have been no material changes to the terms of the Company's stock incentive plans or the terms for vesting, forfeiture and settlement for options and restricted stock awards granted and outstanding under such plans as reported in the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to Note 12, "Stock-Based Compensation Plans," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information on the Company's stock incentive plans, stock options and restricted awards including descriptions of the assumptions used in the valuation model for stock options.


~~(11)~~(12)	Earnings per ~~share~~Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including participating securities) during the year. The Company's only participating securities are unvested restricted stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. See Note 8,9, "Stockholders' Equity," under the caption "Shares ~~authorized~~Authorized and ~~share issuance,~~Share Issuance," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements above for further information regarding the Company's participating securities. Diluted earnings per share reflects the effect on weighted average shares outstanding of the number of additional shares outstanding if dilutive stock options were converted into common stock using the treasury stock method.

The table below presents the increase in average shares outstanding, using the treasury stock method, for the diluted earnings per share calculation for the periods indicated:


	Three months ended September 30,		Nine months ended September 30,		Three months ended September 30,		Nine months ended September 30,

~~(12)~~(13)	Fair Value Measurements

The FASB defines the fair value of an asset or liability to be the price which a seller would receive in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price) and also establishes a fair value hierarchy segregating fair value measurements using three levels of inputs: (Level 1) quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (Level 2) significant other observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs such as interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks and default rates which provide a reasonable basis for fair value determination or inputs derived principally from observed market data; and (Level 3) significant unobservable inputs for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs must reflect reasonable assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which are developed based on ~~the basis of~~ the best information available under the circumstances.

The Company did not transfer any assets between the fair value measurement levels during the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 or the year ended December 31, ~~2016~~2018.

All of the Company's debt ~~and equity~~ securities ~~that~~ are considered "available-for-sale" and are carried at fair value. The debt security category above includes federal agency obligations, commercial and residential federal agency MBS, municipal securities, corporate bonds, and ~~certificates of deposits,~~CDs, as held at those dates. The Company utilizes third-party pricing vendors to provide valuations on its debt securities. Fair values provided by the vendors were generally determined based upon pricing matrices utilizing observable market data inputs for similar or benchmark securities in active markets and/or based on a matrix pricing methodology which employs The Bond Market Association's standard calculations for cash flow and price/yield analysis, live benchmark bond pricing and terms/condition data available from major pricing sources. Therefore, management regards the inputs and methods used by third-party pricing vendors to be "Level 2 inputs and methods" as defined in the "fair value hierarchy." The Company periodically obtains a second price from an impartial third party on debt securities to assess the reasonableness of prices provided by the primary independent pricing vendor.

The Company's equity portfolio fair value is measured based on quoted market prices for the shares; therefore, these securities are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Bank is required to purchase FHLB stock at par value in association with advances from the ~~FHLB; this~~FHLB. This stock is classified as a restricted investment and carried at cost which management believes approximates fair value; therefore, these securities are categorized as Level 3 measures. ~~See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," Item (c) "Restricted Instruments" for further information regarding the Company's fair value assessment of FHLB capital stock.~~

Impaired loan balances in the table above represent those collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ commercial loans where management has estimated the probable credit loss by comparing the loan's carrying value against the expected realizable fair value of the collateral (appraised value, or internal analysis, less estimated cost to sell, adjusted as necessary for changes in relevant valuation factors subsequent to the measurement date). Certain inputs used in these assessments, and possible subsequent adjustments, are not always observable, and therefore, collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loans are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. A specific allowance is assigned to the collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loan for the amount of management's estimated probable credit loss. The specific allowances assigned to the collateral dependent ~~impaired~~ loans amounted to ~~$1.6 million~~$576 thousand at September 30, ~~2017 compared to $1.9~~2019 and $1.6 million at December 31, ~~2016~~2018.

The fair values for the interest-rate swap assets and liabilities represent a FASB Level 2 measurement and are based on settlement values adjusted for credit ~~risk~~risks and observable market interest rate curves. The settlement values are based on discounted cash flow analysis, a widely accepted valuation technique, reflecting the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. Credit risk adjustments consider factors such as the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties, its net exposures and remaining contractual life. The change in value of interest-rate swap assets and liabilities attributable to credit risk was not significant during the reported periods. Refer also to Note 7,8, "Derivatives and Hedging Activities," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, contained above, for additional information on the Company's interest-rate swaps.

Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the financial obligation or performance of a customer to a third party. The fair value of these commitments was estimated to be the fees charged to enter into similar agreements, and accordingly these fair value measures are deemed to be FASB Level 2 measurements. In accordance with the FASB, the estimated fair values of these commitments are carried on the consolidated balance sheet as a liability and amortized to income over the life of the letters of credit, which are typically one year. The estimated fair value of these commitments carried on the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018 were deemed immaterial.

~~Interest rate~~Interest-rate lock commitments related to the origination of mortgage loans that will be sold are considered derivative instruments. The commitments to sell loans are also considered derivative instruments. The Company generally does not pool mortgage loans for sale, but instead sells the loans on an individual basis. To reduce the net interest rate exposure arising from its loan sale activity, the Company enters into the commitment to sell these loans at essentially the same time that the ~~interest rate~~interest-rate lock commitment is quoted on the origination of the loan. The Company estimates the fair value of these derivatives based on current secondary mortgage market prices. These commitments are accounted for in accordance with FASB guidance. The fair values of the Company's derivative instruments are deemed to be FASB Level 2 measurements. At September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, the estimated fair value of the Company's interest-rate lock commitments and commitments to sell these ~~mortgages~~mortgage loans were deemed immaterial.

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis for which the Company utilized Level 3 inputs (significant unobservable inputs for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability) to determine fair value as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019: and December 31, 2018:

Excluded from the tables above are certain financial instruments with carrying values that approximated their fair value at the dates indicated, as they were short-term in nature or payable on demand. These include cash and cash equivalents and non-term deposit accounts. The respective carrying values of these instruments would all be ~~considered to be~~ classified within Level 1 of their fair value hierarchy.

Also excluded from these tables are the fair values of commitments for ~~the~~ unused ~~portion~~portions of lines of credit and ~~letters of credit, which were estimated to be the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements and are deemed to be immaterial, as well as~~ commitments to originate loans ~~which~~that were short-term, at current market rates and estimated to have no significant change in fair value.

When determining fair values noted in the tables above, in cases where quoted fair values are not available, fair values are based upon estimates using various valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of its financial instruments:

~~Loans held for sale:~~ ~~Loans held for sale are recordedat the lower of aggregate amortized cost or market value. The fair value is based on comparable market prices for loans with similar rates and terms.~~

~~Loans:~~ The fair value of loans was determined using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered by the Company. The incremental credit risk for adversely classified loans was considered in the determination of the fair value of the loans.

~~Financial liabilities:~~ The fair values of certificates of deposit and borrowings were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis using rates offered by the Bank or advance rates offered by the FHLB on September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 for similar instruments. The fair value of subordinated debt was estimated using discounted cash flow analysis using a market rate of interest at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Because no active market exists for a portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates were 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.

In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized appreciation and depreciation can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

Over the past twelve months, assets, loans, and customer deposits increased by 9%, 7%, and 12%, respectively, compared to September 30, 2018. Loan and deposit growth, along with a reduction in the loan loss provision, were the key drivers to our earnings increase as compared to the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 include the full dilutive impact of the Company’s equity offering on June 23, 2016.~~

~~Total assets, loans, and customer deposits have increased 10%, 11%, and 3%, respectively, as compared to September 30, 2016. Loan growth was particularly strong as loans grew $88.0 million, or~~ 4%~~, during the quarter. Customer deposits, whose growth trends and month end balances vary depending on market conditions, grew by 3% from a year ago and~~ ~~20%~~ ~~from two years ago.

Composition of Earnings

The Company's earnings are largely dependent on its net interest income, which is primarily the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and the cost of funding (primarily deposits and borrowings). Net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets is referred to as net interest ~~margin. The Company reports net interest~~ margin ~~on a tax equivalent basis~~ ("~~margin"~~Margin").

Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$25.1~~$29.4 million, an increase of ~~$3.3~~$2.0 million, or ~~15%~~7%, compared to the same period in ~~2016.~~2018. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$71.5~~$86.3 million, an increase of ~~$7.3~~$5.6 million, or ~~11%~~7%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. The increase in net interest income was due largely to interest-earning asset growth, primarily ~~to loan growth.~~in loans. Average loan balances ~~(including loans held for sale)~~ increased ~~$204.2~~$132.4 million, ~~and $201.6 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to the 2016 respective period averages. Margin was 4.03%~~or 6%, for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and ~~3.90%~~$110.4 million, or 5%, for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2017, while~~2019, compared to the same respective 2018 period averages. Tax equivalent net interest margin ("TE Margin") was ~~3.86%~~3.93% for the three months ended September 30, ~~2016.~~2019, compared to 3.89% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. TE Margin was 3.96% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to 3.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 3.96% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See the discussion under the heading "Results of Operations" below, in this Item 2, for further information regarding changes in margin.

The re-pricing frequency of the Company’s assets and liabilities are not identical, and therefore subject the Company to the risk of adverse changes in interest rates. This is often referred to as “interest rate risk” and is reviewed in more detail in Part I, Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” of this Form 10-Q and in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” of the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.2018.

For the three months ended September 30, ~~2017 and September 30, 2016,~~2019, the provision to the allowance for loan losses amounted to ~~$1.2~~$1.0 million, ~~and $1.4 million, respectively.~~ compared to $750 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in the provision in the third quarter of 2019 was due primarily to the higher levels of loan growth, compared to the same three-month period in 2018.

For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017 and September 30, 2016,~~2019, the provision to the allowance for loan losses ~~amounted to~~was $1.6 million, ~~and $2.5 million, respectively. The decrease in~~compared to the provision of $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2018. The decrease compared to the prior year was due primarily to generally improved credit ~~quality~~ metrics ~~and underlying collateral values, partially offset by increased loan growth~~ compared to the prior year period, partially offset by the impact of loan growth in the current period.

~~Contributing~~

The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was 1.37% at September 30, 2019, compared to 1.42% at December 31, 2018 and 1.49% at September 30, 2018.

Affecting the provision for loan losses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year were:

~~Total non-performing~~

The ratio of classified loans ~~as a percentage of~~to total loans ~~(a measure of credit risk)~~ amounted to ~~0.57%~~2.37% at September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, compared to ~~0.50%~~2.54% at September 30, ~~2016. Impacting~~2018.

Loan growth for the non-performing loans ratio in the current period, among other changes, were new impaired/non-accrual status classifications of two larger commercial relationships totaling approximately $4.5 million, which, based on a review of their individual business circumstances, management determined that no reserves were necessary as ofnine months ended September 30, ~~2017.~~2019 was $84.6 million, compared to $40.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Sources and Uses of Funds

The Company's primary sources of funds are customer ~~and brokered~~ deposits, ~~Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB")~~FHLB borrowings, current earnings and proceeds from the sales, maturities and pay-downs on loans and investment securities. The Company may also, from time to time, utilize brokered deposits and overnight borrowings from correspondent banks. Additionally, funding for the Company may be generated through equity transactions, including the dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan or exercise of stock options, and occasionally the issuance of debt securities or the sale of new stock. The Company's sources of funds are intended to be used to ~~originate~~conduct operations and to support growth, by funding loans ~~purchase investment~~and investing in securities, ~~conduct operations,~~to expand the branch network, and to pay dividends to stockholders.

The investment portfolio is primarily used to provide liquidity, manage the Company's asset-liability position and to invest excess funds providing additional sources of revenue. Total investments, ~~one~~a component of ~~the key components of interest earning~~interest-earning assets, amounted to $~~385.9~~483.5 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019, an increase of ~~$11.2~~$50.6 million, or 3%12%, since December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, and comprised ~~14%~~15% of total assets at both September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and ~~15% of total assets at~~ December 31, ~~2016.~~2018.

Enterprise's main asset strategy is to grow loans, the largest component of ~~interest earning~~interest-earning assets, with a focus on high quality commercial lending relationships. Total loans, ~~increased~~ ~~$179.6 million, or 9%, since~~ ~~December 31, 2016~~,comprising 79% and ~~amounted to~~ ~~$2.20 billion~~ at ~~September 30, 2017, comprising~~ 81% of total assets at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and ~~80% of total assets at~~ December 31, ~~2016~~2018, respectively, amounted to $2.47 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $2.39 billion at December 31, 2018, an increase of $84.6 million, or 4%. Total commercial loans amounted to $~~1.91~~2.13 billion, or ~~87%~~86% of gross loans, at September 30, ~~2017~~2019, which was ~~relatively~~ consistent with the composition at December 31, ~~2016~~2018 ~~of 86%~~.

~~Table of Contents~~

Management's preferred strategy for funding asset growth is to grow relationship-based deposit balances, preferably transactional deposits (comprised of ~~demand deposit~~non-interest checking accounts, interest-bearing checking accounts and traditional savings accounts). Asset growth in excess of transactional deposits is typically funded through non-transactional deposits (comprised of money market accounts, commercial tiered rate or "investment savings" accounts and term ~~certificates of deposit)~~CDs) and wholesale funding (brokered deposits and borrowed funds).

At September 30, ~~2017~~,2019, customer deposits (total deposits excluding brokered deposits) amounted to ~~$2.22~~$2.78 billion,~~, an increase of~~ ~~$10.6 million, from~~ ~~December 31, 2016~~ ~~balances. During the period, the increase was primarily due to increases in non-interest bearing checking accounts, largely offset by decreases in money market account balances.~~

~~Wholesale funding amounted to~~ ~~$231.7 million~~ at ~~September 30, 2017, comprising 9%~~ or 89% of total assets, compared to ~~$70.0 million~~ at ~~December 31, 2016~~,$2.51 billion, or 3%85% of total assets, ~~an increase of $161.7 million.~~ at December 31, 2018. Since December 31, 2018, customer deposits increased $276.4 million, or 11%, primarily in checking and money market accounts.

Wholesale funding ~~included FHLB advances of $149.3 million and $10.7~~amounted to $4.2 million at September 30, ~~2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and brokered deposits of~~ ~~$82.5 million~~ at ~~September 30, 2017~~2019, compared to ~~$59.4~~$157.3 million at December 31, ~~2016.~~2018.

~~Enterprise faces robust competition~~Culture and Organic Growth Strategy

The Company actively seeks to ~~attract and retain customers within existing and neighboring geographic markets. The Company's ability to achieve its long-term strategic growth and~~increase market share ~~objectives will depend in part upon management's continued success in differentiating the Company in the market place~~ and ~~its ability to~~ strengthen its competitive ~~position.~~position through the continuous review and technological enhancements to product offerings and delivery channels, by maximizing customer service levels and employee training, and fostering a consistent and unwavering commitment to our core values of Excellence, Integrity, Teamwork, Professionalism, and Community. The Company's business model is to provide a full range of diversified financial products and services through a highly-trained staff of knowledgeable banking professionals, with in-depth understanding of our markets, and a commitment to open and honest communication with clients. Management believes the Company has differentiated itself from the competition by building a solid reputation within the local market as a convenient, dependable commercial-focused community bank, delivering consistent and exceptional customer service, offering competitive products, and taking an active role in support of the communities we serve. The Company's banking professionals are committed to upholding the Company's core values, including significant and active involvement in many charitable and civic organizations, and community development programs throughout our service area. This long-held commitment to community not only contributes to the welfare of the communities we serve, it also helps to fuel the local economy and has led to a strong referral network with local businesses, non-profit organizations and community leaders. Management believes the Company's community service culture and reputation makes the Enterprise team stand out among the competition and positions the Company ~~actively seeks~~ to ~~increase market share~~be a leading banking provider of commercial and ~~strengthen its competitive position through continuous reviews of deposit product offerings,~~residential loans, deposits and cash management services, wealth management and ~~ancillary~~wealth services, and trust and insurance services in its growing market area.

Management believes that Enterprise is well equipped to capitalize on market potential to grow both the commercial and residential loan portfolios through strong business development and referral efforts, while utilizing a disciplined and consistent lending approach and credit review practices, which have served to provide consistent quality asset growth over varying economic cycles during the Company's history. The Company has a skilled lending sales force with a broad breadth of business knowledge and depth of lending experience to draw upon, supported by a highly qualified and experienced commercial credit review function.

Management continues to undertake significant strategic growth initiatives, including investments in employee hiring, training and development; marketing and public relations; technology and digital transformation; electronic delivery methods; ongoing improvements, renovations or strategic relocation of existing facilities; and the continued cultivation of recently added branches. The Company is in the process of renovating several branches and relocated the Leominster, Massachusetts branch in the first half of 2018 to a larger and custom-designed state-of-the-art ~~delivery channels, targeted~~branch in a prime Main Street location to ~~businesses, non-profits, professional practice groups, municipalities~~better serve and ~~consumers' needs. In addition, Enterprise carefully plans market expansion through new~~attract customers. The Company also continually looks to develop branch ~~development, identifying branches strategically located~~locations within, and to complement, our existing footprint and expects to open two new branches in Massachusetts. The new Lexington and North Andover locations ~~while expanding the Company's geographic market footprint. In July 2016, the Company's 23~~^rdare anticipated to open in early 2020 and summer 2020, respectively. Our consistent branch ~~opened, on Route 101A in Nashua, NH, and in July 2017, the Company opened its 24~~^th ~~branch, in Windham, NH. Branch~~ expansion is aimed at achieving not only deposit market share growth, but also is intended to contribute to loan originations and generate referrals for ~~investment advisory and~~ wealth management, wealth services, trust and insurance services, ~~residential mortgages~~ and cash management products.

Management ~~continues~~also seeks out opportunities to ~~undertake significant strategic initiatives, including investments in employee hiring, training~~recruit experienced key banking professionals with insightful market knowledge who complement the Enterprise sales and development; marketing and public relations; technology and electronic delivery methods; ongoing improvements, renovations or strategic relocation of existing facilities; and the continued development of recently added branches. The relocation of our branches in Salem, NH and Leominster, MA will provide improved and state-of-the-art branches in prime locations in those communities to better serve our customers. In the third quarter of 2017, we relocated our Salem, NH branch, and we expect the relocation of our Leominster, MA branch to be completed in early 2018.service culture. While management recognizes that such investments increase expenses in the short term, Enterprise believes that such initiatives are a necessary investment in the long-term growth and earnings potential of the Company and will help the Company to capitalize on current opportunities in the ~~current~~ marketplace for community banks such as Enterprise. However, lower than expected returns on these investments, such as slower than anticipated loan and deposit growth in new branches and/or lower than expected ~~fee~~adoption rates or ~~other~~ income generated from new technology or initiatives, could decrease anticipated revenues and net income on such investments in the future.

Changes in government regulation or oversight could affect the Company in substantial and unpredictable ways. The President has signed many executive orders calling for the administration to review various U.S. financial laws and regulations. The full scope of the current administration's legislative agenda is not yet fully known, but it may include certain deregulatory measures for the banking industry, including the structure and powers of the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau and other areas under the Dodd-Frank Act in addition to extensive corporate tax reform proposals. Accordingly, it is difficult to anticipate the continued impact that this expansive legislation, if or when fully enacted, will have on the Company, its customers and the financial industry generally. The Company maintains a Compliance Management Program (the "CMP") designed to meet regulatory and legislative requirements. The CMP provides a framework for tracking and implementing regulatory changes,

~~Table of Contents~~

~~monitoring the effectiveness of policies and procedures, conducting compliance risk assessments, and educating employees in matters relating to regulatory compliance.~~

Operational risk includes the threat of loss from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, systems or external events, due to, among other things: fraud or error; the inability to deliver products or services; failure to maintain a competitive position; lack of, or insufficient information security, cyber-security or physical security; inadequate procedures or controls followed by third-party service providers; or violations of ethical standards. In addition to intensive and ongoing employee training, employee and customer awareness campaigns, controls to manage operational risk include, but are not limited to, technology administration, information security, third-party management, and disaster recovery and business continuity planning. Any system of controls or contingency plan, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the controls and procedures will be met. Any breakdown in the integrity of these information systems, infrastructure, or cyber-security measures, or the Company's inability to identify, respond and correct such breakdown, could result in a loss of customer business, expose customers' personal information to unauthorized parties, damage the Company's reputation, subject the Company to increase costs and additional regulatory scrutiny, and expose the Company to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

~~Accounting Policies/Critical Accounting Estimates~~

~~As discussed in the Company's~~ ~~2016~~ Annual Report on Form 10-K, the three most significant areas in which management applies critical assumptions and estimates that are particularly susceptible to change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, impairment review of investment securities and the impairment review of goodwill. The Company has not changed its significant accounting and reporting policies from those disclosed in its ~~2016~~ ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K.~~

As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, commercial real estate loans increased ~~$115.0~~$14.1 million, or ~~11%~~1%, compared to December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and increased $63.9 million, or ~~14%~~5%, compared to September 30, ~~2016~~2018. Commercial real estate loans are typically secured by a variety of owner-use and non-owner occupied (investor) commercial and industrial property types including one-to-four and multi-family apartment buildings, office, industrial or mixed-use facilities, strip shopping centers or other commercial properties and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrower.

~~Commercial~~As of September 30, 2019, commercial and industrial ~~loans increased $21.9~~loan balances declined by $2.6 million, or 4%0.5%, compared to December 31, ~~2016~~,2018 and increased 5% as$33.8 million, or 7%, compared to September 30, ~~2016~~.2018. These loans include seasonal and formula-based revolving lines of credit, working capital loans, equipment financing, ~~(including equipment leases),~~ and term loans. Also included in commercial and industrial loans are loans partially guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA"), and loans under various programs and agencies. Commercial and industrial credits may be unsecured loans and lines to financially strong borrowers, loans secured in whole or in part by real estate unrelated to the principal purpose of the loan or secured by inventories, equipment, or receivables, and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrower.

Commercial construction loans increased by $~~32.0~~61.0 million, or ~~15%~~26%, since December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and increased $42.6 million, or ~~14%~~17% as, compared to September 30, ~~2016~~2018. Commercial construction loans include the development of residential housing and condominium projects, the development of commercial and industrial use property and loans for the purchase and improvement of raw land. These loans are secured in whole or in part by underlying real estate collateral and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowers. In many cases, these loans move into the permanent commercial real estate portfolio when the construction phase is completed. The increase since December 31, 2018 was due primarily to funding across a variety of projects including residential housing and condominium projects, and development of commercial use property.

~~Retail~~Total retail loan balances increased by ~~$11.0~~$12.1 million, or 4%, since December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and ~~have~~ increased by$21.8 million, or 7%, since September 30, ~~2016~~2018. Residential secured one-to-four family mortgage loans continue to make up the largest portion of the retail segment. The increase ~~over the same period~~since December 31, 2018 was due primarily to an increase in ~~the prior year was primarily with loans secured by~~originations of adjustable rate residential ~~property.~~mortgages which are typically held in our portfolio rather than sold.

At September 30, ~~2017~~2019, commercial loan balances participated out to various banks amounted to $~~67.7~~77.3 million, compared to $~~62.3~~72.1 million at December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and $~~62.4~~74.8 million at September 30, ~~2016~~2018. These balances participated out to other institutions are not carried as assets on the Company's financial statements. Commercial loans originated by other banks in which the Company is a participating institution are carried at the pro-rata share of ownership and amounted to $~~89.4~~68.0 million, $~~85.2~~63.5 million and $~~86.8~~69.7 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019, December 31, ~~2016~~2018, and September 30, ~~2016~~2018, respectively. In each case, the participating bank funds a percentage of the loan commitment and takes on the related pro-rata risk. The rights and

~~Table of Contents~~

obligations of each participating bank are divided proportionately among the participating banks in an amount equal to their share of ownership and with equal priority among all banks. Each participation is governed by individual participation agreements executed by the lead bank and the participant at loan origination. Participating loans with other institutions provide banks the opportunity to retain customer relationships and reduce credit risk exposure among each participating bank, while providing customers with larger credit vehicles than the individual bank might be willing or able to offer independently.

See Note 3, "Loans," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for information on loans serviced for others and loans pledged as collateral.

Credit Risk

Inherent in the lending process is the risk of loss due to customer non-payment, or "credit risk." The Company's commercial lending focus may entail significant additional credit risks compared to long-term financing on existing, owner-occupied residential real estate. The Company seeks to lessen its credit risk exposure by managing its loan portfolio to avoid concentration by industry, ~~and~~ relationship size, and source of repayment, and through sound underwriting practices and the credit risk management function; however, management recognizes that loan losses will occur and that the amount of these losses will fluctuate depending on the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio and economic conditions.

Non-performing assets are comprised of non-accrual loans, deposit account overdrafts that are more than 90 days past due and OREO. The designation of a loan or other asset as non-performing does not necessarily indicate that loan principal and interest will ultimately be uncollectible. However, management recognizes the greater risk characteristics of these assets and therefore considers the potential risk of loss on assets included in this category in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The level of delinquent and non-performing assets is largely a function of economic conditions and the overall banking environment and the individual business circumstances of borrowers. Despite prudent loan underwriting, adverse changes

within the Company's market area, or deterioration in local, regional or national economic conditions, could negatively impact the Company's level of non-performing assets in the future.

The net increase in non-accrual loans since the prior periods was due primarily to the migration of two large commercial relationships in the second quarter of 2017, totaling approximately $4.5 million that were also carried as adversely rated/impaired credits on the Company's "watched" credit loan listing for closer monitoring at September 30, 2017. These additions, among others, were partially offset by principal paydowns and credit rating upgrades during the period. The majority of non-accrual loans were also carried as ~~impaired loans~~adversely classified during the periods and the changes since December 31, ~~2016~~2018 are discussed further below. The increase in loans 60–89 days past due at September 30, 2019 is primarily attributable to one commercial relationship in which the underlying project is in the process of being sold by the borrower. Excluding this relationship, the loans 60-89 days past due and still accruing to total loans ratio was 0.03% at September 30, 2019.

At September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, the Company had adversely classified loans (loans carrying "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss" classifications) amounting to ~~$29.2~~$35.4 million and ~~$34.3~~$35.5 million, respectively. Total adversely classified loans amounted to ~~1.32%~~1.43% of total loans at September 30, ~~2017 as~~2019, compared to ~~1.70%~~1.49% at December 31, ~~2016.~~2018. Adversely classified loans that were performing but possessed potential weaknesses and, as a result, could ultimately become non-performing loans amounted to ~~$16.7~~$23.4 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and ~~$25.1~~$23.8 million at December 31, ~~2016.~~2018. The remaining balances of adversely classified loans were non-accrual loans, amounting to ~~$12.5~~$12.1 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and ~~$9.3~~$11.7 million at December 31, ~~2016.~~2018. Non-accrual loans that were not adversely classified amounted to $6$120 thousand and ~~$220~~$81 thousand at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, respectively, and primarily represented the guaranteed portions of non-performing SBA loans.

The decline in adversely classifieds was due primarily to payoffs, net principal paydowns, and net credit rating upgrades during the year, particularly of several commercial relationships based on a review of their individual business circumstances.

Total impaired loans amounted to $~~29.7~~31.2 million and $~~31.8~~31.5 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018, respectively.

Table of ~~their individual business circumstances, management determined that no reserves were necessary on these relationships as of September 30, 2017.~~Contents

In management's opinion, the majority of impaired loan balances at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018 were supported by expected future cash flows or, for those collateral dependent loans, the net realizable value of the underlying collateral. Based on management's assessment at September 30, ~~2017~~2019, impaired loans totaling $~~23.7~~28.4 million required no specific reserves and impaired loans totaling $~~6.0~~2.8 million required specific reserve allocations of $1.1 million. At December 31, 2018, impaired loans totaling $26.4 million required no specific reserves and impaired loans totaling $5.1 million required specific reserve allocations of $2.2 million. At The decline in specific reserves since December 31, ~~2016~~,2018 was due primarily to the charge-off of a previously impaired ~~loans totaling~~ ~~$25.7 million~~ ~~required no specific reserves and impaired loans totaling~~ ~~$6.1 million~~ ~~required specific reserve allocations of~~ ~~$2.6 million~~.commercial relationship. Management closely monitors ~~these~~impaired relationships for the individual business circumstances, and underlying collateral or credit ~~deterioration.~~deterioration to determine if additional reserves are necessary.

Total TDR loans included in the impaired loan amounts above as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016~~2018 were ~~$23.6~~$22.9 million and ~~$27.0~~$23.1 million, respectively. TDR loans on accrual status amounted to ~~$17.3~~$19.0 million and ~~$22.4~~$19.4 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, respectively. TDR loans included in non-performing loans amounted to ~~$6.3 million and $4.6~~$3.9 million at September 30, ~~2017~~2019 and $3.7 million at December 31, ~~2016, respectively.~~2018. The Company continues to work with customers ~~particularly commercial relationships,~~ and enters into loan modifications (which may or may not be TDRs) to the extent deemed to be necessary or appropriate while attempting to achieve the best mutual outcome given the individual financial circumstances and ~~future~~ prospects of the borrower.

The Company carried no OREO property at September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, December 31, ~~2016 and~~2018 or September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. There was one property added to OREO in 2019 that was subsequently sold resulting in net gains of $34 thousand. There were no ~~additions,~~ sales or ~~writedowns on~~subsequent write downs of OREO during the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017 or 2016.~~2018.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of probable credit ~~risk~~loss inherent in the loan portfolio as of the specified balance sheet dates. On a quarterly basis, management prepares an estimate of the allowance necessary to cover estimated probable credit losses. The Company maintains the allowance at a level that it deems adequate to absorb all reasonably anticipated probable losses from specifically known and other credit risks associated with the portfolio. Management closely monitors the credit quality of individual delinquent and non-performing relationships, industry concentrations, the local and regional real estate market and current economic conditions.

There have been no material changes to the Company's underwriting practices, credit risk management system, or to the allowance assessment methodology used to estimate loan loss exposure as reported in ~~the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Please refer to~~ Note 4, "Allowance for Loan Losses," to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements contained in the ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form ~~10-K for further discussion of management's methodology used to estimate a sufficient allowance for loan losses, the credit risk management function and adversely classified loan rating system.~~10-K.

The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was ~~1.51%~~1.37% at September 30, ~~2017, 1.55%~~2019, 1.42% at December 31, ~~2016,~~2018, and ~~1.59%~~1.49% at September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. General improvement in credit metrics and the 2019 charge-off of a previously reserved commercial relationship during the current period, partially offset by individual loan downgrades to adversely classified and impaired status, have contributed to the decline in the allowance to total loans ratio since the prior year. Based on the foregoing, as well as management's judgment as to the existing credit risks inherent in the loan portfolio, as discussed above under the headings "Credit Risk" and "Asset Quality," management believes that the Company's allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses from specifically known and other probable credit risks associated with the portfolio as of September 30, ~~2017~~2019.

The Company had outstanding subordinated debt of $~~14.8~~14.9 million (net of deferred issuance costs) ~~of outstanding subordinated debt~~ at September 30, ~~2017~~2019, December 31, ~~2016~~2018 and September 30, ~~2016,~~2018, which consisted of $15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes ~~(the "Notes")~~ issued in January 2015, in a private placement to an accredited investor. See also Note 6,7, "Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debt," to the Company's unaudited consolidated interim financial statements contained in Item 1 above, for further information regarding the Company's subordinated debt.

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to meet cash needs arising from, among other things, fluctuations in loans, investments, deposits and borrowings. Liquidity management is the coordination of activities so that cash needs are anticipated and met readily and efficiently. The Company's liquidity policies are set and monitored by the Company's Board of ~~Directors.~~Directors (the "Board"). The duties and responsibilities related to asset-liability management matters are also covered by the ~~Board of Directors.~~Board. The Company's asset-liability objectives are to engage in sound balance sheet management strategies, maintain liquidity, provide and enhance access to a diverse and stable source of funds, provide competitively priced and attractive products to customers and conduct funding at a ~~low cost~~low-cost relative to current market conditions. Funds gathered are used to support current commitments, to fund earning asset growth, and to take advantage of selected leverage opportunities.

The Company's liquidity is maintained by projecting cash needs, balancing maturing assets with maturing liabilities, monitoring various liquidity ratios, monitoring deposit flows, maintaining cash flow within the investment portfolio, and maintaining wholesale funding resources.

At September 30, ~~2017~~2019, the Company's wholesale funding sources primarily included borrowing capacity at the FHLB and brokered deposits. In addition, the Company maintains overnight fed fund purchase arrangements with correspondent banks and has access to the FRB Discount Window.

Management believes that the Company has adequate liquidity to meet its obligations. However, if, ~~as a result of~~ general economic conditions or other events, causes these sources of external funding to become restricted or are eliminated, the Company may not be able to raise adequate funds or may incur substantially higher funding costs or operating restrictions in order to raise the necessary funds to support the Company's operations and growth.

The Company has in the past also increased capital and liquidity by offering shares of the Company's common stock for sale to its existing stockholders and new investors and through the issuance of subordinated debt. See "Capital Resources," below, for information on the Company's capital planning.

Capital Resources

Capital planning by the Company and the Bank considers current needs and anticipated future growth. ~~Historically, the primary sources of capital for the Company and the Bank have been common stock issuances and proceeds from the issuance of subordinated debt.~~ Ongoing sources of capital include the retention of earnings, less dividends paid, proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options and proceeds from purchases of shares pursuant to the ~~Company’s~~ Company's dividend reinvestment plan and direct stock purchase plan (together, the "DRSPP"). Additional sources of capital for the Company and the Bank have been proceeds from the issuance of

common stock and proceeds from the issuance of subordinated debt. The Company believes its current capital is adequate to support ongoing operations.

Since January 1, 2015, the Company has been subject to increasing capital ratios, with a phase in period that extends to January 2019, as a result of regulation adopted by the federal bank regulatory agencies known as the “Basel III Rules.”

Unless otherwise indicated, the reported results are for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 with the "same period," the "comparable period," and "prior period" being the three months ended September 30, ~~2016.~~2018. Average yields are presented on aan annualized tax equivalent basis.

The Company's net income for the third quarter of ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$5.5~~$9.0 million, compared to ~~$4.7~~$8.0 million for the same period in ~~2016,~~2018, an increase of ~~$792 thousand,~~$1.0 million, or ~~17%~~13%.

Net Interest Income and Margin

The Company's net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$25.1~~$29.4 million, compared to ~~$21.8~~$27.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, ~~2016,~~2018, an increase of ~~$3.3~~$2.0 million, or ~~15%~~7%. The increase in net interest income over the comparable period was due largely to interest-earning asset growth, primarily ~~to revenue generated from loan growth and to a lesser extent an increase~~ in ~~rate.~~loans.

~~Net Interest Margin~~

The Company's net interest margin was ~~4.03%~~3.88% for three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to 3.83% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Margin was 3.91% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Since June 30, 2019, the decline in yield on interest–earning assets exceeded the reduction in the cost of funds.

Table of Contents

Tax equivalent net interest income for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 was $29.8 million compared to ~~3.86%~~$27.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $1.9 million, or 7%. TE Margin was 3.93% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 3.89% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The quarter-to-date June 30, 2019 TE Margin was 3.96%.

Interest and Dividend Income

For the third quarter of 2019, total interest and dividend income amounted to $34.8 million, an increase of $3.5 million, or 11%, compared to the prior period. The increase resulted primarily from an increase of $132.4 million, or 6%, in average loan balances and a 20 basis point increase in the average tax equivalent loan yield. The increase in loan yields is attributable to market rate increases, including the prime rate, throughout 2018, which positively impacted yields in 2019, including the quarter ended September 30, ~~2016. Margin was 3.90% for~~2019. Declines in market rates in 2019, including two recent reductions in the ~~quarter~~prime rate, have lowered loan yields relative to earlier in the year but they remain at levels that exceed the comparable prior year quarter.

Interest Expense

For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2017. Margin has increased since~~2019, total interest expense amounted to $5.4 million, an increase of $1.5 million over the same period in ~~the prior year~~2018, due primarily to ~~loan and investment yields increasing at a faster rate than~~increases in the deposit market rates. The average cost of ~~funds.~~checking, saving and money markets increased 31 basis points and the average cost of CDs increased 54 basis points. The Company did not have any brokered CDs during the three months ended September 30, 2019, this partially offset the increase in interest expense from higher deposit market rates and growth in deposits.

Non-interest bearing checking accounts are an important component of the Company's core funding strategy. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the average balance of non-interest bearing checking accounts increased $64.3 million, or 9%, as compared to the same period in 2018, and represented 29% and 28% of total average deposit balances for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

~~Interest and Dividend Income~~

For the third quarter of 2017, total interest and dividend income amounted to $27.0 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 17%, compared to the prior period. The increase resulted primarily from an increase of $228.7 million, or 10%, in the average balance of interest earning assets, mainly loans, and to a lesser extent a 24 basis point increase in the average yield.

Interest income on loans and loans held for sale, which accounts for the majority of interest income, amounted to $24.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $3.4 million, or 16%, over the comparable period, due primarily to loan growth, and to a lesser extent an increase in average loans and loans held for sale yields. The average balances of loans and loans held for sale increased $204.2 million, or 10%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, and average yields increased 20 basis points.

Income on investment securities amounted to $2.0 million, an increase of $388 thousand, or 24%, compared to the same period in 2016. This increase primarily resulted from an increase of $55.4 million, or 17%, in the average balance of investment securities. Average investment yields also increased 8 basis points due primarily to the debt security portfolio restructuring in the third quarter of 2017.

Income on other interest-earning assets amounted to $136 thousand, an increase of $40 thousand, or 42%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. This increase was primarily due to an increase of 91 basis points in the average yield on other interest-earning assets due mainly to an increase in the Federal Funds rate since the prior period, partially offset by a decrease of $30.8 million, or 46%, in the average balance of other interest-earning assets.

~~Interest Expense~~

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, total interest expense amounted to $1.9 million, an increase of $537 thousand, or 39%, compared to the prior period. The increase in total interest expense was due to increases in both average rates and average balances. The increase in average rates resulted from higher cost of funds in the current year, primarily interest-bearing funding which increased 9 basis points over the same period in the prior year. At the same time, the average balance of interest-bearing funding increased $166.7 million, or 11% over the same period.

Interest expense on interest checking, savings and money market accounts amounted to $883 thousand, an increase of $230 thousand, or 35%, compared to the same prior year period due primarily to an increase in average rates of 5 basis points and to a lesser extent an increase in average balances of $96.3 million, or 7%.

~~Interest expense on CDs amounted to $372 thousand, an increase of $75 thousand, or 25%, compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to an increase of 18 basis points in average rates.~~

Interest expense on brokered CDs amounted to $254 thousand, an increase of $66 thousand, or 35%, compared to the 2016 period, due primarily to an increase in average balances. Average balances increased $19.0 million, or 29%.

Interest expense on borrowed funds amounted to $169 thousand, an increase of $167 thousand due to increases in both average balances and average rates. Average balances increased $52.1 million, and average rates increased 49 basis points compared to prior period. Average rates increased due mainly to increases in the Fed Funds rate since the prior period.

The average balance of non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $48.0 million, or 7%, as compared to the same period in 2016. Non-interest bearing demand deposits are an important component of the Company's core funding strategy. This non-interest bearing funding source represented 30% of total average deposit balances for both the three months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016.

Provision for Loan Loss

The provision for loan losses amounted to ~~$1.2~~$1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017, a decrease~~2019, an increase of ~~$161~~$275 thousand, compared to the prior period. The increase in the provision in the third quarter of 2019 was due to the higher levels of loan growth, compared to the same three-month period ~~last year.~~ in 2018.

The provision for loan losses is a significant factor in the Company's operating results. For further discussion regarding the provision for loan losses and management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses see "Credit Risk," "Asset Quality," and "Allowance for Loan Losses" under "Financial Condition" in this Item 2 above, and "Credit Risk," "Asset Quality," and "Allowance for Loan Losses" in the Financial Condition section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

There have been no material changes to the Company's underwriting practices or to the allowance for loan loss methodology used to estimate loan loss exposure as reported in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Non-Interest Income

~~Investment advisory fees increased by $149 thousand, or 13%, primarily driven by asset growth due~~primary component of the quarter over quarter change related to ~~changes~~an increase in ~~market values.~~

~~Deposit~~deposit and interchange ~~fees~~ ~~increased~~ by ~~$255 thousand, or~~ ~~20%, primarily due to increases in business checking fees and to a lesser extent ATM interchange fees and overdraft~~ fees.

Net gains (losses) on sales of investment securities decreased by $830 thousand in the third quarter of 2017, predominately from losses of $1.6 million realized from a debt security portfolio restructuring, largely offset by gains on equity sales in the current quarter of $1.3 million.

~~Net gain on loan sales decreased $110 thousand, or 56%, primarily due to lower volume in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.~~

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$18.8~~$21.1 million, an increase of ~~$1.4~~$1.1 million, or 8%6%, compared to the prior ~~period in 2016.~~period. The ~~significant changes are discussed below:~~

~~Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1.2 million, or 11%,~~increase primarily related to ~~support~~ the Company's strategic growth initiatives, including salaries and ~~market expansion initiatives since~~employee benefit expenses, and to a lesser extent technology and telecommunications expenses. Partially offsetting these increases was a reduction in deposit insurance premiums, primarily resulting from a Small Bank Assessment Credit from the ~~prior period.~~

~~Occupancy and equipment expense~~ ~~increased~~ by ~~$134 thousand, or~~ 7%~~, mainly due to investments in our facilities, including new branches, the overall branch network, and operations buildings.~~

FDIC Deposit Insurance Fund of $376 thousand.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2019 was ~~35.4%~~21.4%, compared to ~~32.3%~~23.3% for the three months ended September 30, ~~2016. The increase in rate was primarily due to higher levels of projected taxable income.~~2018.

Net Interest Income and Margin

The Company's net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 was ~~$71.5~~$86.3 million, compared to ~~$64.2~~$80.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016~~,2018, an increase of ~~$7.3~~$5.6 million,, or ~~11%~~7%.

~~Net~~ Interest ~~Margin~~and Dividend Income

~~The Company's margin was 3.95%~~Total interest and dividend income amounted to $102.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017, and was relatively flat~~2019, an increase of $12.0 million, or 13%, compared to the ~~margin~~prior period. The increase was primarily attributed to loans and loans held for sale including a 29 basis point increase in average tax equivalent loan yields, as well as a $110.4 million, or 5%, increase in average loan balances. The increase in loan yields since the prior period is primarily attributable to market rate increases, including the prime rate throughout 2018, which positively impacted yields in 2019. Declines in market rates in 2019, including two recent reductions in the prime rate, have lowered loan yields relative to earlier in the year but they remain at levels that exceed the comparable prior year period.

Interest Expense

For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016.~~2019, total interest expense amounted to $16.2 million, an increase of $6.4 million over the same period in 2018 due primarily to increases in the deposit market rates. The average cost of checking, saving and money markets increased 45 basis points and the average cost of CDs increased 61 basis points. Partially offsetting the increase in interest expense were lower average balances on brokered CDs as the remaining maturing balances were not renewed in 2019 due to increases in lower-costing deposits.

Non-interest checking accounts are an important component of the Company's core funding strategy. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the average balance of non-interest checking accounts increased $49.0 million, or 7%, as compared to the same period in 2018, and represented 28% of total average deposit balances for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.

Interest-rate risk is reviewed in detail under the heading Item 3, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," below.

Rate / Volume Analysis

The following table sets forth, on a tax-equivalent basis, the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in the average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected interest income and expense during the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019, compared to the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016~~.2018.

~~For the nine months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2017, total interest expense amounted to~~ ~~$5.2 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 28%, over the same period in~~ ~~2016~~ due primarily to an increase in the cost of funds, mainly interest-bearing funding, and to a lesser extent an increase in average balances. The average rate on interest-bearing funding increased by 5 basis points and the average balances increased $176.7 million, or 12%.

Interest expense on interest checking, savings and money market accounts amounted to $2.5 million, an increase of $601 thousand, or 32%, compared to the prior period due to both an increase in rates by 4 basis points and average balances of $154.3 million, or 13%, over the comparable period.

~~Interest expense on CDs amounted to $986 thousand, an increase of $144 thousand, or 17%, over the same period in~~ ~~2016~~ ~~due primarily to an increase in the average rate of 12 basis points.~~

Interest expense on brokered CDs amounted to $664 thousand, an increase of $47 thousand, or 8%, due primarily to an increase in the average rate, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance. The average rate increased 17 basis points, while the average balance decreased $6.2 million, or 8%.

Interest expense on borrowed funds amounted to $422 thousand, an increase of $343 thousand, due to increases in both average balances and average rates of borrowed funds since the prior year. Average balances increased $30.9 million and average rates increased 57 basis points since the prior period, mainly due to increases in the Fed Funds rate.

For the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2019, the ~~average balance~~provision for loan losses amounted to $1.6 million, a decrease of ~~non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $64.1~~$1.1 million, ~~or 10%, as~~ compared to the same period in ~~2016. Non-interest bearing demand deposits are an important component of the Company's core funding strategy. This non-interest bearing funding represented~~ ~~29%~~ ~~of total average deposit balances for both the nine months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2017~~ ~~and~~ ~~2016~~.

~~Provision for Loan Loss~~

2018. The ~~provision for loan losses amounted to~~ ~~$1.6 million~~ ~~for the nine months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2017, a~~ decrease of ~~$873 thousand~~ compared to the ~~same period last year. The decrease in the provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2017~~prior year was due primarily to generally improved credit ~~quality~~ metrics ~~and underlying collateral values, partially offset by increased loan growth~~ compared to the prior year.

loan growth in the current period.

The provision for loan losses is a significant factor in the Company's operating results. For further discussion regarding the provision for loan losses and management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses see "Credit Risk," "Asset Quality," and "Allowance for Loan Losses" under "Financial Condition" in this Item 2, above, and "Credit Risk," "Asset Quality," and "Allowance for Loan Losses" in the Financial Condition section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's ~~2016~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019 amounted to ~~$11.5~~$12.0 million,, an increase of ~~$781~~$777 thousand,, or 7%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, ~~2016. The significant changes are discussed below:~~

~~Investment advisory fees~~2018. Non-interest income increased ~~by $210 thousand, or 6%,~~in 2019 due primarily ~~due~~ to increases in ~~investments under management from both new business and increases in market values.~~

~~Deposit~~deposit and interchange fees, ~~increased by $599 thousand, or 16%, primarily due to increases in business checking fees and to a lesser extent ATM interchange fees.~~

~~Net gains (losses) on security sales decreased $126 thousand, or 21%.

Item 3 -	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's primary market risk is interest rate risk. Oversight of interest rate risk management is the responsibility of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"). Annually, the Board reviews and approves the Company's asset-liability management policy, which provides management with guidelines for controlling interest rate risk, as measured through net interest income sensitivity toThere have been no material changes in ~~interest rates, within certain tolerance levels. The Board also establishes and monitors guidelines for~~ the ~~Company's liquidity, capital ratios and asset-liability management.~~

The Company's asset-liability management strategies and guidelines are reviewed on a periodic basis by management and presented and discussed with the Board. These strategies and guidelines are revised based on changes in interest rate levels, general economic conditions, competition in the marketplace, the current interest rate risk position of the Company, anticipated growth and other factors.

One of the principal factors in maintaining planned levels of net interest income is the ability to design effective strategies to manage the impact of interest rate changes on future net interest income. Quarterly, management completes a net interest income sensitivity analysis, which is regularly presented to the Board. This analysis includes a simulationresults of the Company's net interest income ~~under various interest rate scenarios. Variations~~sensitivity analysis as reported in the ~~interest rate~~Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company can be subject to margin compression depending on the economic environment ~~affect numerous factors, including prepayment speeds, reinvestment rates, maturities~~and the shape of ~~investments (due to call provisions), and interest rates on various asset and liability accounts.~~

the yield curve. Under the Company's current balance sheet position, the Company's margin generally performs slightly better over time in a rising rate environment, while it generally decreases in a declining rate environment and when the yield curve is flattening or inverted. ~~The Company can be subject to margin compression depending on the economic environment and the shape of the yield curve.~~

In a flattening yield curve scenario, margin compression occurs as the spread between the cost of funding and the yield on interest earning assets narrows. Under this scenario the degree of margin compression is highly dependent on the Company's ability to fund asset growth through lower cost deposits. However, if the curve is flattening, while short-term rates are rising, the adverse impact on margin may be somewhat delayed, as increases in the Prime Rate will initially result in the Company's asset yields re-pricing more quickly than funding costs. After a protracted period of flat rates, the Federal Open Market Committee had begun to increase the fed funds target rate, with three 25 basis point increases since their December 2016 meeting.

In an inverted yield curve situation, shorter-term rates exceed longer-term rates, and the impact on margin is similar but more adverse than the flat curve scenario. Again, however, the extent of the impact on margin is highly dependent on the Company's balance sheet mix.

In a declining rate environment, margin compression will eventually occur as the yield on interest earning assets decreases more rapidly than decreases in funding costs. The primary causes would be the impact of interest rate decreases (including decreases in the Prime Rate) on adjustable rate loans and the fact that decreases in deposit rates may be limited or lag decreases in the Prime Rate.

~~There have been no material changes in the results of the Company's net interest income sensitivity analysis as reported in the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.~~ At September 30, ~~2017, management continues to consider~~2019, the Company's primary ~~interest rate~~interest-rate risk exposure continues to be margin compression that may result from changes in interest rates and/or changes in the mix of the Company's balance sheet components. This would include the mix of fixed versus variable rate loans and investments ~~on the asset side,~~within assets, and higher cost versus lower cost deposits and overnight borrowings versus term borrowings and certificates of deposit ~~on the liability side.~~within liabilities. Refer to heading ~~“Results~~"Results of ~~Operations”~~Operations" contained within ~~Management’s~~Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of ~~Operations~~Operations" of this Form 10-Q for further discussion of margin.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter (i.e., the three months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2019) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
