Overview

Net income was $46$222 million, or $0.80$3.88 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. These results compare September 30, 2020 compared
to fourthsecond quarter 20192020 net income of $58$116 million, or $1.00$2.03 per diluted share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net income was $384 million, or $6.71 per diluted share first quarter 2019as compared to net income of $36$160 million, or $0.63$2.80 per diluted share for same period a year ago.

Net interest income increased $12 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2020, driven by a $2.0 billion increase in average earning assets led by growth in our warehouse business. The net interest margin in the third quarter 2020 was 2.78 percent, an 8 basis point decrease from the prior quarter. This was driven by an increase in LGG loans in forbearance which we have not repurchased and first quarter 2019which do not accrue interest. Excluding the impact from these loans, adjusted net incomeinterest margin expanded 6 basis points to 2.94 percent in the third quarter, compared to adjusted net interest margin of $37 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, when excluding acquisition expenses of $1 million2.88 percent in the prior quarter. The increase in the adjusted net of taxes.interest margin was primarily driven by an increase in higher spread warehouse loans and lower rates on deposit and borrowing costs.

Compared to the fourth quarter 2019, net interest income in the first quarter of 2020 fell $4 million, or 3 percent, reflecting a 10 basis point decrease in net interest margin, despite a full quarter's impact from prior interest rate cuts and the partial impact of the March interest rate cuts in response to COVID-19. Margin compression was partially offset by growth in interest earnings assets.

We also adopted CECL during the quarter, which increased our allowance for loan losses $23 million and our reserve for unfunded commitment $7 million as of January 1, 2020. Our firstsecond quarter 2020, provision was $14noninterest income increased $74 million an increase from $0 million at March 31, 2019 resulting from the forecasted impact of COVID-19 on the economy.

In the first quarter of 2020 our Mortgage business yielded mortgage revenues of $96 million driven by a 36 percentwhile noninterest expense only increased $9 million. The increase in fallout adjusted locks and a $9 million increase in return on our mortgage servicing rights. Ournoninterest income was primarily due to higher net gain on loan sales and net return on mortgage servicing rights. Gain on sale margin was 80increased 12 basis points, whichto 2.31 percent as compared to 2.19 percent for the second quarter 2020. The increase was reduced 43 basis points as a resultprimarily driven by improved execution in secondary marketing and the gain associated with the RMBS transaction we executed during the quarter. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to the capitalization of hedge ineffectivenessdirect origination costs in the final two weekssecond quarter for the PPP loans which did not reoccur and the accelerated vesting of March caused by market disruptioncertain components of executive compensation that resulted from Federal Reserve purchasesthe most recent secondary share offering. Despite increased volume, mortgage expenses were flat quarter over quarter due to certain expenses in the second quarter that did not reoccur this quarter and are not expected to reoccur in the future, including certain performance-related incentives related to our Opes Advisors division.

Our provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $32 million, compared to $102 million for the second quarter 2020. We have continued to add to our reserve balance as we believe the economic recovery will continue to be challenged due to the COVID-19 pandemic for an extended period of agency mortgage-backed securities during that period.time, especially as it relates to consumer loans in forbearance and commercial real estate loans.

Excluding the impact from the loans with government guarantees discussed above, adjusted net interest margin expanded 6 basis points to 2.94 percent in the third quarter, compared to adjusted net interest margin of 2.88 percent in the prior quarter.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $32 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $102 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in the provision is primarily driven by the significant provision taken in during the second quarter of 2020 due to our forecast of economic and credit conditions as impacted by COVID-19. The additional provision in the third quarter of 2020 reflects our belief that the economy will continue to be challenged by the response to the COVID-19 pandemic for an extended period of time, especially as it relates to consumer loans in forbearance and commercial real estate loans.

The provision for credit losses and unfunded commitments was $14$148 million for the threenine months ended March 31, 2020. Net charge-offs duringSeptember 30, 2020, compared to $18 million for the period were $2 million.nine months ended September 30, 2019. The higher provisionincrease is reflective of $14 million was driven bythe adoption of CECL in 2020 and an increase due to changes in the economic forecast which assumed a sudden sharp and severe recession, only partially recovering laterused in the year dueACL models and judgment we applied related to the economic distress caused by COVID-19. In this scenario, United States gross domestic product ("GDP") contracts 18 percent in the second quarter of 2020, the HPI decreases 3 percent by the endthose forecasts as a result of the year and unemployment spikes to 9 percent before moderating to 7 percent by the end of the year.ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Noninterest income increased $48$540 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019,, primarily due to the following:


Net gain on loan sales increased $41$505 million, primarily due to $4.6$15.9 billion higher fallout adjusted locks driven by the favorable mortgage environment supported by historically low interest rates. In addition, the 0.89 percent increase in gain on sale margin was driven by managing our volume level within our channels and products to fit our fulfillment capacity made possible by demand due to favorable market conditions which has led to higher closings in our retail channel, which supports a shift to retail mix in the first quarter of 2020.higher gain on sale.
Loan fees and charges increased $9$42 million primarily driven by an increase in retail closings along with $14 million higher subservicing ancillary fees as total loans being serviceddriven by fees related to forbearance programs.

Other noninterest income declined $41 million primarily due to the $25 million DOJ Liability fair value adjustment in 2019 which did not reoccur (see Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments for additional information) and $7 million of AFS investment security gains recorded in 2019 that did not reoccur in 2020 along with lower returns on other investments due to lower interest rates.
Deposit fees and charges decreased $4 million, to $24 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily driven by a decrease in non-sufficient funds fee income due to higher customer balances and fees we elected to waive to support our customers during the lower rate environment which yielded lower FHLB dividends and other miscellaneous income.initial COVID-19 surge.

Comparison to Prior Quarter

Noninterest expense decreased $10increased $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the three months three months ended December 31, 2019 primarily due to the following:

Commissions decreased $6 million, primarily due to lower closings and favorable channel commission rates.
Legal and professional expense decreased $3 million primarily due to lower IT consulting and external litigation costs.



Comparison to Prior Year Quarter

Noninterest expense increased $44 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 primarily due to the following:

Commissions increased $11 million due to $2.3 billion, or 19 percent, higher mortgage closings.
Compensation and benefits expense increased $7 million from the prior quarter. This was primarily due to a 5 percent increase in FTE, the capitalization of direct PPP loan origination costs in the second quarter which did not reoccur and the accelerated vesting of certain components of executive compensation that resulted from the most recent secondary share offering. This was partially offset by lower incentive compensation as the second quarter 2020 included a catch-up adjustment as a result of the strong financial performance.

Other noninterest expense decreased $13 million from the prior quarter due to certain expenses in the second quarter that did not reoccur this quarter and are not expected to reoccur in the future, including certain performance-related earn out adjustments related to our Opes Advisors acquisition.

Comparison to Prior Year to Date

Noninterest expense increased $194 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to the following:

Compensation and benefits increased $15$66 million, primarily due to highera 13 percent increase in average FTE drivenwhich was impacted by bringing default servicing in house and adding variable mortgage origination volume overclosing capacity in response to the last year. Compensationrobust mortgage performance along with an increase in incentive compensation attributed to stronger financial results.
Commissions and benefits costs wereloan processing increased $86 million and $9 million, respectively, primarily driven by $11.8 billion higher mortgage closings along with a shift in channel mix from TPO to retail which supports a higher gain on sale but also impacted by seasonal payroll taxes,has higher commission rates and overall wage inflation.costs.
Commissions increased $16 million, primarily driven by higher originations along with a shift in channel mix from TPO to direct retail which supports a higher gain on sale but also has higher commission rates.

Other noninterest expense increased $6$13 million primarily driven by higher mortgage related expenses dueincluding certain performance-related earn out adjustments related to the favorable mortgage environment.our Opes Advisors acquisition.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, was $10$73 million and our$115 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 18.5 percent. Our24.7 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to an effective tax rate differs fromof 21.5 percent for the combined federal and state statutorythree months ended June 30, 2020. The higher rate was the result of our higher level of income, which is taxed at higher marginal tax rates. Also contributing to the higher rate primarily due to non-taxable bank owned life insurance and other tax-exempt earnings, partially offset by nondeductible expenses.was the delay of certain tax planning strategies.



Operating Segments

Our operations are conducted through three operating segments: Community Banking, Mortgage Originations, and Mortgage Servicing. The Other segment includes the remaining reported activities. The operating segments have been determined based on the products and services offered and reflect the manner in which financial information is currently evaluated by management. Each of the operating segments is complementary to each other and because of the interrelationships of the segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.

    As a result of Management'smanagement's evaluation of our segments, effective January 1, 2020, certain departments have been re-aligned between the Community Banking and Mortgage Originations.Originations segments. Specifically, a majority of the residential mortgage HFI portfolio is now part of the Mortgage OriginationOriginations segment. The income and expenses relating to these changes are reflected in our financial statements and all prior period segment financial information has been recast to conform to the current presentation.

Before the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, we charged the lines of business for the net charge-offs that occurred during the period. The difference between total net charge-offs and the consolidated provision for credit losses was assigned to the “Other” segment. This amount assigned to the “Other” segment was then allocated back to the lines of business through other noninterest expense.

This year, with the adoption of CECL, we still charge the lines of business for the net charge-offs that occur. In addition to this amount, we charge them for the change in loan balances during the period, applied at the budgeted credit loss factor. The difference between the consolidated provision for credit losses and the sum of total net charge-offs and the change in loan balances is still assigned to the “Other” segment, although now that amount includes the changes related to the economic forecasts, model changes, qualitative adjustments and credit downgrades. As in the prior methodology, the amount assigned to the “Other” segment continues to be allocated back to the lines of business through other noninterest expense.

For detail on each segment's objectives, strategies, and priorities, please read this section in conjunction with Note 17 - Segment Information.

The benefit for credit losses was lower as changes in allowance related to volume are recorded at the segment level and our HFI residential loan portfolio declined due to higher prepayments.
Net gain on loan sales decreased $15increased $41 million, to $90$344 million, as compared to $105$303 million in the fourthsecond quarter 2019. Fallout-adjusted locks increased $3.0 billion, or 36 percent, to $11.2 billion, primarily driven by the robust refinance market.2020. The net gain on loan sale margin decreased 43increased 12 basis points, to 0.802.31 percent for the firstthird quarter 2020, as compared to 1.232.19 percent for the fourthsecond quarter 2019 reflecting $45 million of hedge ineffectiveness caused by the Federal Reserve’s purchases of agency mortgage-backed securities in the last two weeks of March 2020. The firstincrease was primarily driven by improved execution in secondary marketing and the gain associated with the RMBS transaction we executed during the quarter. Fallout-adjusted locks increased $1.2 billion, or 9 percent, to $15.0 billion, as historically low interest rates continued to support a strong refinance market.
Net return (loss) on mortgage servicing rights increased $20 million, to a $12 million net gain for the third quarter of 2020, also generated $4compared to an $8 million lower intersegment revenue fromnet loss for the salesecond quarter 2020. The third quarter 2020 MSR return normalized following the MSR valuation decrease caused by rising prepayment speeds in the second quarter of mortgages to Community Banking.2020.
Loan fees and charges, commissions and loan processing expense all decreasedincreased due to $712 million lower$2.3 billion higher mortgage closings in the firstthird quarter of 2020.

Other noninterest expense decreased $24 million primarily driven by certain performance-related earn out adjustments related to our Opes Advisors acquisition in the second quarter of 2020 along with a decrease in the intersegment expense allocation of $8 million from the impact of the degradation of economic forecasts and credit downgrades on the provision for credit losses.

Net interest income declined $7 million driven about equally by lower average HFS and HFI mortgage balances as deliveries and payoffs outpaced new closings and yields continued to decline in line with market rates.

Comparison to Prior Year Quarterto Date
    
The Mortgage Originations segment reported net income of $36$380 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and $24$102 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. The increase was driven by the following:

Net gain on loan sales increased $494 million, to $737 million, as compared to $243 million in the first nine months of 2019. Fallout adjusted locks increased $15.9 billion, or 65 percent, to $40.0 billion, primarily driven by low interest rates that fueled a strong refinance market. The net gain on loan sale margin increased 89 basis points to 1.85 percent for the first nine months of 2020, as compared to 0.96 percent for the first nine months of 2019 reflecting our management of volume level to fit our fulfillment capacity driven by demand due to market conditions, in addition to a higher mix of retail closings (29 percent during the first nine months of 2020 compared to 20 percent for the first nine months of 2019).
Net interest income increased $9$44 million primarily due to $1.7$2.0 billion higher average LHFS balances resulting from increased mortgage production.
The benefit for credit losses was lower as changes in allowance related to volume are recorded at the segment level and our HFI residential loan portfolio declined due to higher prepayments.
Net gain on loan sales increased $38 million driven by $4.5 billion higher fallout adjusted mortgage rate locks and 8 basis points higher margin resulting from a shift in channel mix toward higher margin retail channels.
Compensation increased $7 million reflecting 219 higher FTE, with approximately 60 percent being driven by growth in the retail channel and 40 percent within mortgage fulfillment as capacity has been adjusted in response to growth in the overall mortgage market.
Loan fees and charges, loan administration income, commissions and loan processing expense all increased due to $3.1$11.8 billion higher closings and a shift toincreased retail mix in the first quarterhalf of 2020.
Other noninterest expense increased $51 million primarily driven by an increase in the intersegment expense allocation from the impact of the degradation of economic forecasts and credit downgrades on the provision for credit losses.

Mortgage Servicing
    
The Mortgage Servicing segment services loans when we hold the MSR asset, and subservices mortgage loans for others through a scalable servicing platform on a fee for service basis. We may also collect ancillary fees and earn income through the use of noninterest bearing escrows. The loans we service generate custodial deposits which provide a stable funding source which supportssupport interest-earning asset generation in the Community Banking and Mortgage OriginationOriginations segments. Revenue for serviced and subserviced loans is earned on a contractual fee basis, with the fees varying based on our responsibilities and the delinquency status of the underlying loans. The Mortgage Servicing segment also services residential mortgages for our LHFI portfolio in the Community Banking segment and our own MSR portfolio in the Mortgage Originations segment for which it earns intersegment revenue on a fee per loan basis.

Comparison to Prior Quarter

The Mortgage Servicing segment reported net income of $6$13 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared toconsistent with net income of $9 millionreported for the three months ended December 31, 2019. TheJune 30, 2020. Loan administration income increased $4 million, driven by an increase in the average number of subserviced loans and higher monthly service fees for loans in forbearance. This was mostly offset by a $3 million decrease in net income was primarilyloan fees and charges driven by a $2 million servicing advance write off related to a legacy sale along with higher occupancy, administrative and software expenses on a relatively flat volume of loans serviced.lower ancillary fees.

The Mortgage Servicing segment reported net income of $6$32 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to net income of $3$15 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. The $3$17 million increase in net income was driven by a $42 million increase in noninterest income, a result of a decline in LIBOR-based fees paid to sub-servicing customers on custodial deposits, higher ancillary income driven by increases in forbearance and loss mitigation activities, and higher subservice fee income due to an increase in the average number of subserviced loans serviced, which increased average custodial balances, subservicing fees, late fee income as well as loan administration income. Thean increase in net incomethe number of delinquent loans which carry a higher servicing charge. This was partially offset by a $4$14 million increase in noninterest expensescompensation and benefits expense primarily due to the acquisition of the Jacksonvillebusiness growth, including bringing default service center.servicing in-house in late 2019. Other noninterest expense increased $14 million driven by an increase in loans serviced and other fees, including software costs and corporate allocations.

Other

The Other segment includes the treasury functions, which include the impact of interest rate risk management, balance sheet funding activities and the investment securities portfolios, as well as other expenses of a corporate nature, including corporate staff, risk management, and legal expenses which are charged to the line of business segments. The Other segment charges each operating segment a daily funds transfer pricing rate on their average assets which resets more rapidly than the underlying borrowing costs resulting in an asset sensitive position. In addition, the Other segment includes revenue and expenses not directly assigned or allocated to the Community Banking, Mortgage Originations or Mortgage Servicing segments.

Comparison to Prior Quarter

The Other segment reported a net loss of $18$47 million, for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $19$32 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.June 30, 2020. The $1$15 million decrease in losseshigher loss was primarily driven by the following:

Neta decrease in net interest income increased $7 million. Fourth quarter 2019 interest income was more severely impacted byas a result of the rate declines throughout the year and the Bank being in anBank’s overall asset sensitive position as compared toand the first quarter 2020.
Provisionlower average rates throughout the third quarter. The provision for credit losses was $12decreased $70 million higher driven by COVID-19's impactas a result of the significant provision taken in second quarter of 2020 due to our forecast of economic forecast.and credit conditions as impacted by COVID-19. The additional provision in the third quarter of 2020 reflects our belief that the economy will continue to be challenged by the response to the COVID-19 pandemic for an extended period of time, especially as it relates to consumer loan forbearance and the commercial real estate sector. The provision for credit losses is directly allocated to the other applicable segments through other noninterest expense. The majority of all other activity within the Other segment largely offsets and is allocated back to the operating segments, recorded as contra other noninterest expense.

Comparison to Prior Year Quarterto Date

The Other segment reported a net loss of $18$98 million, for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $11$16 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. The $7$82 million increase in lossesdecrease was primarily due to a higher$60 million decrease in net interest income as a result of the Bank’s overall asset sensitive position and the lower average rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The nine months ended September 30, 2019 also includes a $25 million benefit from the DOJ Liability fair value adjustment. The provision for credit losses driven by COVID-19's impactincreased $149 million primarily due to ourchanges in the forecasts of economic forecast.conditions and impacts of COVID-19. With the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, the difference between the consolidated provision for credit losses and the sum of total net charge-offs and the change in loan balances is still assigned to the Other segment. However, this amount now includes changes related to the economic forecasts, model changes, qualitative adjustments and credit downgrades. The provision for credit losses is then directly allocated to the other applicable segments through other noninterest expense. The majority of all other activity within the Other segment largely offsets and is allocated back to the operating segments, recorded as contra other noninterest expense.



Risk Management

Certain risks are inherent in our business and include, but are not limited to, operational, strategic, credit, regulatory compliance, legal, reputational, liquidity, market and cyber.cybersecurity. We continuously invest in our risk management activities which are focused on ensuring we properly identify, measure and manage such risks across the entire enterprise to maintain safety and soundness and maximize profitability. We hold capital to protect us from unexpected loss arising from these risks.

A comprehensive discussion of risks affecting us can be found in the Risk Factors section included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some of the more significant processes used to manage and control credit, market, liquidity and operational risks are described in the following paragraphs.



Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss to us arising from an obligor’s inability or failure to meet contractual payment or performance terms. We provide loans, extend credit, and enter into financial derivative contracts, all of which have related credit risk. We manage credit risk using a thorough process designed to ensure we make prudent and consistent credit decisions. The process was developed with a focus on utilizing risk-based limits and credit concentrations while emphasizing diversification on a geographic, industry and customer level. The process utilizes documented underwriting guidelines, comprehensive documentation standards, and ongoing portfolio monitoring including the timely review and resolution of credits experiencing deterioration. These activities, along with the management of credit policies and credit officers’ delegated authority, are centrally managed by our credit risk team.

20


We maintain credit limits in compliance with regulatory requirements. Under the Home Owners Loan Act (HOLA),HOLA, the Bank may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15 percent of Tier 1 andplus Tier 2 capital plusand any portion of the allowance for credit losses not included in the Tier 2 capital. This limit was $300$371 million as of March 31,September 30, 2020. We maintain a more conservative maximum internal Bank credit limit than required by HOLA of $100 million to any one borrower/obligor relationship, with the exception of warehouse borrower/obligor relationships which have a higher internal Bank limit of $125 millionmillion. During 2020, the Board approved the extension of short-term “overlines” to certain warehouse borrowers as all advances are fully collateralized by residential mortgage loans and this asset class has had very low levels of historical loss.loss, resulting in a temporary increase of the warehouse borrower limit to $175 million. We have a tracking and reporting process to monitor lending concentration levels, and all credit exposures to a single or related borrower that exceed $50 million must be approved by the Board of Directors.

Our commercial loan portfolio has been built on our relationship-based lending strategy. We provide financing and banking products to our commercial customers in our core banking footprint and will follow those established customer relationships to meet their financing needs in areas outside of our footprint. We have also formed relationship lending on a national scale through our home builder finance and warehouse lending businesses. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $9$12.1 billion in our commercial loan portfolio with our warehouse lending and home builder finance businesses accounting for 5863 percent of the total. Of the remaining commercial loans in our portfolio, the majority of CRE and C&I loans were with customers who have established relationships within our core banking footprint.

Credit risk within the commercial loan portfolio is managed using concentration limits based on line of business, industry, geography and product type. This is managed through the use of strict underwriting guidelines detailed in credit policies, ongoing loan level reviews, monitoring of the concentration limits and continuous portfolio risk management reporting. The commercial credit policy outlines the risks and underwriting requirements and provides a framework for all credit and lending activities. Our commercial loan credit policies consider maturity and amortization terms, maximum LTVs, minimum debt service coverage ratios, construction loan monitoring procedures, appraisal requirements, pro-forma analysis requirements and thresholds for product specific advance rates.

We typically originate loans on a recourse basis with full or partial guarantees. On a limited basis, we may approve loans without recourse if sufficient consideration is provided in the loan structure. Non-recourse loans primarily have low LTVs, strong cash flow coverage or other mitigating factors supporting the lack of a guaranty. These guidelines also require an appraisal of pledged collateral prior to closing and on an as-needed basis when market conditions justify. We contract with a variety of independent licensed professional firms to conduct appraisals that are in compliance with our internal commercial credit and appraisal policies and regulatory requirements.

Our commercial loan portfolio includes leveraged lending. The Bank defines a transaction as leveraged when two or more of the following conditions exist;exist: 1) proceeds from the loan are used for buyouts, acquisitions, recapitalization or capital distributions, 2) the borrower's total funded debt to EBITDA ratio is greater than four or Senior Funded Debt to EBITAEBITDA ratio is greater than three, 3) the borrower withhas a high debt to net worth ratio within its industry or sector as defined by internal limits, and 4) debt leverage significantly exceeds industry norms or historical levels for leverage as defined by internal limits. Leveraged lending transactions typically result in leverage ratios that are significantly above industry norms or historical levels. Our leveraged lending portfolio and other loan portfolios with above-average default probabilities tend to behave similarly during a downturn in the general economy or a downturn within a specific sector. Consequently, we take steps to avoid undue concentrations by setting limits consistent with our appetite for risk and our financial capacity. In addition, there are specific underwriting conditions set for our leveraged loan portfolio and there is additional emphasis on certain items beyond the standard underwriting process including synergies, collateral shortfall and projections.

Our commercial loan portfolio also includes loans that are part of the Shared National Credit ("SNC")SNC Program. A SNC is defined as any loan or loan commitment of at least $100 million that is shared by three or more supervisedfederally regulated institutions. On an annual basis, a joint regulatory task force performs a risk assessment of all SNCs. When completed, these risk ratings are


shared and our risk rating must be no better than the risk rating listed in the SNC assessment. Exposure and credit quality for SNCs are carefully monitored and reported internally.

For our commercial real estate portfolio, including owner and nonowner-occupied-propertiesnonowner-occupied properties and home builder finance lending, we obtain independent appraisals as part of our underwriting and monitoring process. These appraisals are reviewed by an internal appraisal group that is independent from our sales and credit teams.

The home builder finance group is a national relationship-based lending platform that focuses on markets with strong housing fundamentals and higher population growth potential. The team primarily originates construction and development loans. We generally lend in metropolitan areas or counties where verifiable market statistics and data are readily available to
21


support underwriting and ongoing monitoring. We also evaluate the jurisdictions &and laws, demographic trends (age, population and income), housing characteristics and economic indicators (unemployment, economic growth, household income trends) for the geographies where our borrowers primarily operate. We engage independent licensed professionals to supply market studies and feasibility reports, environmental assessments and project site inspections to complement the procedures we perform internally. Further, we perform ongoing monitoring of the projects including periodic inspections of collateral and annual portfolio and individual credit reviews.

The consumer loan portfolio has been built on strong underwriting criteria and within concentration limits intended to diversify our risk profile. We have built our consumer loan portfolio by adding high quality first mortgage loans to our balance sheet making up 61.157 percent of our total consumer loan portfolio at March 31,September 30, 2020. We have also grown our home equity loans and lines of credit as well as our other consumer loan portfolio.

Prior to COVID-19March 2020 we had continued to strengthen our Community Banking segment by growing our consumer and commercial real estate LHFI. OurDue to the COVID-19 pandemic, subsequent to March 2020 we have focused on managing credit in our CRE and C&I portfolios while growing our lower-risk, higher return warehouse lending portfolio. This drove growth in our commercial loan portfolio grew $1.7of $4.9 billion, or 1368 percent, from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020, led by growth in our warehouse lending portfolio due to increased refinance activity in the mortgage industry. In addition, ourSeptember 30, 2020. Our consumer loan portfolio decreased $57$538 million, or 411 percent, from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020. A $129September 30, 2020 as a $244 million increase in other consumer loans was more than offset by a $190$682 million decrease in residential first mortgage loans due to higher refinance activity and lower originationsnew closings to the HFI portfolio. Since COVID-19 began, we are focusing on our lower-risk, higher return warehouse lending portfolio while shifting to a credit management focus, rather than growth, on our remaining commercial portfolio due to economic conditions. At the present time, new relationships require approval of our CEO, Chief Credit Officer and Chief Lending Officer.
    
Residential first mortgage loans. We originate or purchase various types of conforming and non-conforming fixed and adjustable rate loans underwritten using Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines for the purpose of purchasing or refinancing owner occupied and second home properties. We typically hold certain mortgage loans in LHFI that do not qualify for sale to


the Agencies and that have an acceptable yield and risk profile. The LTV requirements on our residential first mortgage loans vary depending on occupancy, property type, loan amount, and FICO scores. Loans with LTVs exceeding 80 percent are required to obtain mortgage insurance. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, loans in this portfolio had an average current FICO score of 737738 and an average LTV of 6752 percent.

Warehouse lending. We have a national platform with relationship managers across the country. We offer warehouse lines of credit to other mortgage lenders which allow the lender to fund the closing of residential mortgage loans. Each extension, advance, or draw-down on the line is fully collateralized by residential mortgage loans and is paid off when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. In response to COVID-19, we have increased credit requirements for government loans and lowered the advance rate for loans that we believe have higher risk, as well as not accepting jumbo or non-qualified mortgage loans as collateral.

Underlying mortgage loans are predominantly originated using the Agencies' underwriting standards. The guideline for debt to tangible net worth is 15 to 1. The aggregate committed amount of adjustable-rate warehouse lines of credit granted to other mortgage lenders at March 31,September 30, 2020 was $6.3$10.0 billion, of which $4.0$7.6 billion was outstanding, compared to $3.9$4.8 billion at March 31,September 30, 2019, of which $1.6$3.2 billion was outstanding.

Credit Quality

Trends in certain credit quality characteristics in our loan portfolios, remain strong and are a result of our    Our focus on effectively managing credit risk through our careful underwriting standards and processes.processes has resulted in strong trends in certain credit quality characteristics in our loan portfolios. The credit quality of our loan portfolios is demonstrated by low delinquency levels, minimal charge-offs and low levels of nonperforming loans.

For all loan categories within the consumer and commercial loan portfolio, loans are placed on nonaccrual status when any portion of principal or interest is 90 days past due (or nonperforming), or earlier when we become aware of information indicating that collection of principal and interest is in doubt. While it is the goal of management to collect on loans, we attempt to work out a satisfactory repayment schedule or modification with past due borrowers and will undertake foreclosure proceedings if the delinquency is not satisfactorily resolved. Our practices regarding past due loans are designed to both assist borrowers in meeting their contractual obligations and minimize losses incurred by the Bank. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest income is reversed. Loans return to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are anticipated to be fully collectible.

Payment Deferrals

InBeginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we offered our consumer and commercial customers were offered 90-dayborrowers principal and interest payment deferrals.deferrals, forbearance and/or extensions. Consumer borrowers were not required to provide proof of hardship to be granted forbearance or payment deferral. Typically payment history is the primary tool used to identify consumer borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. Forbearance or payment deferrals make this determination more challenging. In addition, consumer borrowers who have requested forbearance or payment deferrals are not being aged and remain in the aging category they were in prior to forbearance or payment deferral.

    The table below summarizes borrowers in our consumer loan portfolios that are in forbearance or were granted a payment deferral:

As the MSR owner for loans serviced for others, we are requiredthe Agencies require us to advance principal and interest for a period of up to four months and tax and insurance payments until the Agencies make us whole. on past due loans as follows:

Principal and InterestTaxes and Insurance
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac4 monthsNo time limit
GNMANo time limitNo time limit

We anticipate servicing advances for these loans in forbearance to increase throughout the remainder of 2020. We believe that we have ample liquidity to handle the increase in servicing advances. We initially provide advances on a short-term basis for loans we subservice and are reimbursed by the MSR owner. Our advance receivable for our subserviced loans is therefore insignificant.

Troubled debt restructurings (held-for-investment)

Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs")    TDRs are modified loans in which a borrower demonstrates financial difficulties and for which a concession has been granted as a result. Nonperforming TDRs are included in nonaccrual loans. TDRs remain in nonperforming status until a borrower has made payments and is current for at least six consecutive months. Performing TDRs are not considered to be nonaccrual so long as we believe that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected.

Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we have offered our consumer and commercial customer’scustomers principal and interest payment deferrals and extensions. We considered these programs in the context of whether or not the restructuringshort-term modifications of these contractsloans would constitute a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR).TDR. We considered the CARESCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), interagency guidance and related guidance from the FASB, which provided that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not required to be accounted for as TDRs. As a result, we have determined that these loans are not TDRs. We believe that the extension and deferral programs, including forbearance specified by the Agencies, and our application of the referenced guidance and accounting for these programs is appropriate.

At March 31,September 30, 2020 our total TDR loans decreased $1 million compared towere consistent with December 31, 2019, primarily due to the addition of a commercial real estate loan offset by principal payments and payoffs out-pacing new additions.payoffs. Of our total TDR loans, 81 percent and 79 percent were in performing status at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.2019, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which replaces the incurred loss methodology with a lifetime expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss methodology. We adopted the requirements of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and all related amendments on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and unfunded commitments. We establish an allowance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For further information, see Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Investment and Note 18 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Concurrent with the adoption of ASU 2016-13, we have implemented dual risk rating models which use probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default, leveraging an industry leading third party vendor.

Under ASC 326 we are required to record our estimate of the expected lifetime losses related to the loans. In general, the provision should be higher for portfolios where the average ‘lifetime' is longer than the loss emergence period under the previous standard.

Additionally, the new standard requires us to forecast economic conditions and apply those forecasts, which we model, to determine our expectation of lifetime credit loss. This could have a significant impact and could cause volatility as compared to the previous standard, which did not include management’s forecasts of economic conditions as economic forecasts are inherently uncertain.

The impact of adopting ASC 326 was primarily driven by moving to a lifetime loss methodology. The lifetime loss methodology considers a reasonable and supportable economic forecast period before reverting economic variables over a one-year period to its long-term historical averages on a straight-line basis. The residential first mortgage, home equity and other consumer portfolios experienced an increase in allowance due to the weighted average life of these instruments being longer than their loss emergence period in the legacy incurred loss methodology. The commercial real estate and commercial and industrial portfolios experienced a decrease primarily due to the shorter duration of these loans as compared to the loss emergence period under the previous incurred loss method. Additionally, the look-back period for these portfolios utilized in the incurred loss methodology of ten years, which was heavily impacted by the previous recession, as compared to the estimated ASC 326 reserve as of January 1, 2020, which included a more favorable economic forecast compared to the ten-year average performance. The warehouse lending portfolio experienced a decrease due to their collateral, very short duration and history of very low credit losses. The unfunded commitment reserve was increased primarily due to the life of loan concept under the ASC 326 methodology.

The allowance for credit losses was $152$280 million at March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to $140$250 million at January 1, 2020, adjusted for the impact of adopting ASC 326.June 30, 2020. The increase in the allowance is primarily reflective of changes in theour economic forecast used inand judgment we applied related to those forecasts and underlying borrower credit as a result of the ACL modelsongoing COVID-19 pandemic between January 1,June 30, 2020 and March 31,September 30, 2020. We utilized the Moody’s March 27 base scenarioSeptember scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, which includedweighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an immediate, severe and sharp recession driven by COVID-19 that assumedadverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the third quarter 2020 was roughly equivalent to the scenario used in the second quarter GDP to decline2020. Unemployment ends the year at an annualized rate of 18 percent, unemployment (adjusted for the impact of the government stimulus) of 910 percent and HPI decreasing 3 percentrecovers only slightly in 2021. GDP recovers only slightly by the end of the year. These actions drove an increaseyear from current levels and does not return to near pre-COVID level until 2024. HPI decreases 2 percent from mid-2020 through 2021. We judgmentally increased the qualitative reserves by $21 million, guided by the model output from Moody's adverse scenario, our judgment relating to industries and borrowers we believe could be more exposed to the stressful conditions in our reserves of approximately $18 million, which includes an increaseforecast, uncertainty related to loans in forbearance and our reserves for unfunded commitments of $10 million. This was partially offset by a reduction in reserves on specifically identified loansjudgment regarding economic uncertainty including the impact from the upcoming national election and the low levels of delinquencies in the various LHFI portfolios through March 31, 2020.additional government stimulus.

The allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 1.11.7 percent at March 31,September 30, 2020 compared to 0.9 percent at December 31, 2019. Excluding warehouse, the allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 3.1 percent at September 30, 2020 compared to 1.1 percent at December 31, 2019. The increase in the allowance, as a percentage of LHFI is reflective of the additional increases into the reserveallowance to reflect the change in economic and credit forecast used in the ACL models between January 1, 2020 and March 31, 2020, including increases in unemployment and decreases in GDP and HPI as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.during that period. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had a 1.82.8 percent and 0.71.3 percent allowance coverage on our consumer loan portfolio and our commercial loan portfolio, respectively.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of reduced earnings and/or declines in the net market value of the balance sheet due to changes in market rates. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk which impacts our net interest income, fee income related to interest sensitive activities such as mortgage originationclosing and servicing income, and loan and deposit demand.

We are subject to interest rate risk due to:

The maturity or repricing of assets and liabilities at different times or for different amounts
Differences in short-term and long-term market interest rate changes
The remaining maturity of various assets or liabilities may shorten or lengthen as interest rates change

Our Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO"),ALCO, which is composed of our executive officers and certain members of other management, monitors interest rate risk on an ongoing basis in accordance with policies approved by our board of directors. The ALCO reviews interest rate positions and considers the impact projected interest rate scenarios have on earnings, capital, liquidity, business strategies, and other factors. However, management has the latitude to change interest rate positions within certain limits if, in management's judgment, the change will enhance profitability or minimize risk.

32




To assess and manage interest rate risk, sensitivity analysis is used to determine the impact on earnings and the net market value of the balance sheet across various interest rate scenarios, balance sheet trends, and strategies.

Net interest income sensitivity

Management uses a simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates across various interest rate scenarios which demonstrates the level of interest rate risk inherent in the existing balance sheet. The analysis holds the current balance sheet values constant and does not take into account management intervention. In addition, we assume certain correlation rates, often referred to as a “deposit beta,” for interest-bearing deposits, wherein the rates paid to customers change relative to changes in benchmark interest rates. The effect on net interest income over a 12 month12-month time horizon due to hypothetical changes in market interest rates is presented in the table below. In this interest rate shock simulation, as of the periods presented, interest rates have been adjusted by instantaneous parallel changes rather than in a ramp simulation which applies interest rate changes over time. All rates, short-term and long-term, are changed by the same amount (e.g. plus or minus 100 basis points) resulting in the shape of the yield curve remaining unchanged.

In the net interest income simulations, our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity. When interest rates rise our net interest income increases. Conversely, when interest rates fall our net interest income decreases. Due to the historically low interest rate environment experienced in the first quarter of 2020, we executed approximately $1.5 billion of interest rate swaps and long-term FHLB advances in the first quarter of 2020. These transactions lock in lower rate funding between 3 and 7 years at an average cost of 61 basis points, well below our cost of funds in the first quarter. At March 31,September 30, 2020, the $49$37 million increase in net interest income in the constant scenario as compared to that at December 31, 2019 was primarily driven by the growth in our interest earning assets partially offset by lower short termshort-term market rates compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019.rates.

The net interest income sensitivity analysis has certain limitations and makes various assumptions. Key elements of this interest rate risk exposure assessment include maintaining a static balance sheet and parallel rate shocks. Future interest rates not moving in a parallel manner across the yield curve, how the balance sheet will respond and shift based on a change in future interest rates and how the Company will respond are not included in this analysis and limit the predictive value of these scenarios.

Economic value of equity

Management also utilizes Economic Value of Equity (EVE),EVE, a point in time analysis of the economic value of our current balance sheet position, which measures interest rate risk over a longer term. The EVE calculation represents a hypothetical valuation of equity, and is defined as the market value of assets, less the market value of liabilities, adjusted for the market value of off-balance sheet instruments. The assessment of both the short-term earnings (Net Interest Income Sensitivity) and long-term valuation (EVE) approaches, rather than Net Interest Income Sensitivity alone provideprovides a more comprehensive analysis of interest rate risk exposure.
There are assumptions and inherent limitations in any methodology used to estimate the exposure to changes in market interest rates and as such, sensitivity calculations used in this analysis are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future results. This analysis evaluates risks to the current balance sheet only and does not incorporate future


growth assumptions. Additionally, the analysis assumes interest rate changes are instantaneous and the new rate environment is constant but does not include actions management may undertake to manage risk in response to interest rate changes. Each rate scenario reflects unique prepayment and repricing assumptions. Management derives these assumptions by considering published market prepayment expectations, repricing characteristics, our historical experience, and our asset and liability management strategy. This analysis assumes that changes in interest rates may not affect or could partially affect certain instruments based on their characteristics.

Our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity in various interest rate scenarios. The increase in EVE as rates raise is the result of the amount of assets that would be expected to reprice exceeding the amount of liabilities repriced. This increased as of March 31,September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 due to the long termaddition of pay fixed interest rate funding actions discussed above.swaps. At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, for each scenario shown, the percentage change in our EVE is within our Board policy limits.

Derivative financial instruments

As a part of our risk management strategy, we use derivative financial instruments to minimize fluctuation in earnings caused by market risk. We use forward sales commitments to hedge our unclosed mortgage originationclosing pipeline and funded mortgage LHFS. All of our derivatives and mortgage loan production originated for sale are accounted for at fair market value. Changes to our unclosed mortgage originationclosing pipeline are based on changes in fair value of the underlying loan, which is impacted most significantly by changes in interest rates and changes in the probability that the loan will not fund within the terms of the commitment, referred to as a fallout factor or, inversely, a pull-through rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. The adequacy of these hedging strategies, and the ability to fully or partially hedge market risk, rely on various assumptions or projections, including a fallout factor, which is based on a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history. In the first quarter, gain-on-sale margins increased significantly as primary-secondary spreads widened to historic levels and lenders worked to manage capacity. However, in the second half of March, we experienced $45 million of hedge losses due to the Federal Reserve’s purchases of agency mortgage-backed securities in the last two weeks of March 2020. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs)

Our MSRs are sensitive to interest rate volatility and are highly susceptible to prepayment risk, basis risk, market volatility and changes in the shape of the yield curve. We utilize derivatives, including interest rate swaps and swaptions, as part of our overall hedging strategy to manage the impact of changes in the fair value of the MSRs, however these risk management strategies do not completely eliminate repricing risk. Our hedging strategies rely on assumptions and projections regarding assets and general market factors, many of which are outside of our control. For further information, see Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights, Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements. 


Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not have sufficient funds, at a reasonable cost, to meet current and future cash flow needs as they become due. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects the ability to, at a reasonable cost, meet loan demand, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate and market opportunities. The


ability of a financial institution to meet current financial obligations is a function of the balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate assets, and access to various sources of funds.

Parent Company Liquidity

The Company currently obtains its liquidity primarily from dividends from the Bank. The primary uses of the Company's liquidity are debt service, operating expenses the repurchase of common stock and the payment of cash dividends which were increased to $0.05 per share in the first quarter 2020. The Company holds $250$246 million of senior notes which are scheduled to mature in approximately 1 year on July 15, 2021. At March 31,September 30, 2020, the Company held $232$305 million of cash on deposit at the Bank, for future cash outflows for debt interest payments, dividend paymentsan

amount sufficient to service the senior notes, repay the senior notes at maturity, pay dividends and cover the operating expense.expenses of the Company.


The OCC and the FRB regulate all capital distributions made by the Bank, directly or indirectly, to the holding company, including dividend payments. Whether an application or notice is required is based on a number of factors including whether the institution qualifies for expedited treatment under the OCC rules and regulations or if the total amount of all capital distributions (including each proposed capital distribution) for the applicable calendar year exceeds net income for that year to date plus the retained net income for the preceding two years, or the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the dividend. Additional restrictions on dividends apply if the Bank fails the QTL test. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, the bankBank is in compliance with the QTL test. At March 31,September 30, 2020, the Bank is able to pay dividends to the holding company of approximately $227$249 million without submitting an application to the OCC and remain well capitalized.

Bank Liquidity
    
Our primary sources of funding are deposits from retail and government customers, custodial deposits related to loans we service and FHLB borrowings. We use the FHLB of Indianapolis as a significant source for funding our residential mortgage origination business due to the flexibility in terms which allows us to borrow or repay borrowings as daily cash needs require. The amount we can borrow, or the value we receive for the assets pledged to our liquidity providers, varies based on the amount and type of pledged collateral, as well as the perceived market value of the assets and the "haircut" of the market value of the assets. That value is sensitive to the pricing and policies of our liquidity providers and can change with little or no notice.

Further, other sources of liquidity include our LHFS portfolio and unencumbered investment securities. We primarily originate agency-eligible LHFS and therefore the majority of new residential first mortgage loan originationsclosings are readily convertible to cash, either by selling them as part of our monthly agency sales, RMBS, private party whole loan sales, or by pledging them to the FHLB and borrowing against them. In addition, we have the ability to sell unencumbered investment securities or use them as collateral. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $4.9$2.5 billion available in unencumbered investment securities.

Our primary measure of liquidity is a ratio of ready liquidity to volatile funding, the volatile funds coverage ratio (“VFCR”). The VFCR is a liquidity coverage ratio that is customized to our business and ensures we have adequate coverage to meet our liquidity needs during times of liquidity stress. Volatile funds are the portion of the Bank’s funding identified as being at a higher risk of runoff in times of stress. Ready liquidity consists of cash on reserve at the Federal Reserve and unused borrowing capacity provided by the loan and investments portfolios. The VFCR is calculated, reported, and forecasted daily as part of our liquidity management framework.framework and was 59 percent as of September 30, 2020.
    
Our liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We balance the liquidity of our loan assets to our available funding sources. Our LHFI portfolio is funded with stable core deposits whereas our warehouse loans and LHFS may be funded with FHLB borrowings and custodial deposits. Warehouse loans are typically more liquid than other loan assets, as loans are paid within a short amount of time, when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. As not all asset categories require the same level of liquidity, our loan-to-deposit ratio shows how we manage our liquidity position, how much liquidity we have and the agility of our balance sheet. The Company's average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio, was 7575.9 percent as of March 31,for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Excluding warehouse loans, which have draws that typically pay off within a few weeks, and custodial deposits, which represent mortgage escrow accounts on deposit with the Bank, the average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio was 8674.8 percent as of March 31,for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

As governed and defined by our Board liquidity policy, we maintain adequate excess liquidity levels appropriate to cover unanticipated liquidity needs. In addition to this liquidity, we also maintain targeted minimum levels of unused borrowing capacity as another cushion against unexpected liquidity needs. Each business day, we forecast 90 days of daily cash needs. This allows us to determine our projected near term daily cash fluctuations and also to plan and adjust, if necessary, future activities. As a result, in an adverse environment, we believe we would be able to make adjustments to operations as required to meet the liquidity needs of our business, including adjusting deposit rates to increase deposits, planning for


additional FHLB borrowings, accelerating sales of LHFS (agencies and/or private), selling LHFI or investment securities, borrowing through the use of repurchase agreements, reducing originations,closings, making changes to warehouse funding facilities, or borrowing from the discount window.

Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.

Total deposits increased $906 million,$4.8 billion, or 6.032 percent, at March 31,September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019, primarily driven by growth in our servicing business which resulted in a $1.0$3.3 billion increase in custodial deposits.

We utilize local governmental agencies and other public units as an additional source for deposit funding. We are not required to hold collateral against our government deposits from Michigan government entities as they are covered by the Michigan Business and Growth Fund. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we were required to hold collateral for our government deposits in California that were in excess of $250,000. The total of collateral held for California at March 31,September 30, 2020 was $125$100 million. In Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio, we may be required to hold collateral against our government deposits based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the size of individual deposits and external bank ratings. At March 31,September 30, 2020, collateral held on government deposits in these states was $1.6$10 million. GovernmentAt September 30, 2020, government deposit accounts include $379 millionincluded $0.4 billion of certificates of deposit with maturities typically less than one year and $785 million in$1.3 billion of checking and savings accounts at March 31, 2020.accounts.

Custodial deposits arise due to our servicing or subservicing of loans for others and represent the portion of the investor custodial accounts on deposit with the Bank. For certain subservice agreements, these deposits require us to credit the MSR owner interest against subservicing income. This cost is a component of net loan administration income.

We participate in the CDARS program, through which certain customer CDs are exchanged for CDs of similar amounts from other participating banks and customers may receive FDIC insurance up to $50 million. This program helps the Bank secure larger deposits and attract and retain customers. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $113$123 million of total CDs enrolled in the CDARS program, a decrease of $20$10 million from December 31, 2019.

FHLB Advances

The FHLB provides loans, also referred to as advances, on a fully collateralized basis, to savings banks and other member financial institutions. We are required to maintain a minimum amount of qualifying collateral securing FHLB advances. In the event of default, the FHLB advance is similar to a secured borrowing, whereby the FHLB has the right to sell the pledged collateral to settle the fair value of the outstanding advances.

We rely upon advances from the FHLB as a source of funding for the originationclosing or purchase of loans for sale in the secondary market and for providing duration specific short-term and long-term financing. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances fluctuates from time to time depending on our current inventory of mortgage LHFS and the availability of lower cost funding sources. Our portfolio includes short-term fixed rate advances and long-term fixed rate advances.

We are currently authorized through a resolution of our Board of Directors to apply for advances from the FHLB using approved loan types as collateral, which includes residential first mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a line of credit with the FHLB of up to $10.0$10 billion, which is further limited based on our total assets and qualified collateral, as determined by the FHLB. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $6.3$2.8 billion of advances outstanding and an additional $429 million$3.1 billion of collateralized borrowing capacity available at the FHLB.

Federal Reserve Discount Window
    
We have arrangements with the FRB of Chicago to borrow from its discount window. The discount window is a borrowing facility that we may utilize for short-term liquidity needs arising from special or unusual circumstances. The amount we are allowed to borrow is based on the lendable value of the collateral that we provide. To collateralize the line, we pledge investment securities and loans that are eligible based on FRB of Chicago guidelines.

At March 31,September 30, 2020, we pledged collateral, which included commercial loans, municipal bonds, and agency bonds, to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $733 million$2.6 billion with a lendable value of $727 million.$1.7 billion. At December 31, 2019, we pledged collateral to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $788 million with a lendable value of $758 million. We do not typically utilize this available funding source, and at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had no borrowings outstanding against this line of credit.
Other Unsecured Borrowings

We have access to overnight federal funds purchased lines with other Federal Reserve member institutions. We utilize this source of funding for short-term liquidity needs, depending on the availability and cost of our other funding sources. At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $0.5 billion$671 million of borrowings outstanding under this source of funding. Additional borrowing capacity under this and other sources of funding can vary depending on market conditions.

Debt

As part of our overall capital strategy, we previously raised capital through the issuance of junior subordinated notes to our special purpose trusts formed for the offerings, which issued Tier 1 qualifying preferred stock ("trust preferred securities"). The trust preferred securities are callable by us at any time. Interest is payable on a quarterly basis; however, we may defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters without default or penalty. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we are current on all interest payments. Additionally, we have $246 million of senior debt outstanding at March 31,September 30, 2020 (“Senior Notes”) which matures on July 15, 2021. For further information, see Note 9 - Borrowings.

Operational Risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss due to human error,current or projected financial condition and resilience arising from inadequate or failed internal processes or systems, and controls, violations of,human errors or noncompliance with, laws, rules and regulations, prescribed practices,misconduct, or ethical standards, andadverse external influences such as market conditions,events which may include vendor failures, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks. We continuously strive to adapt our system of internal controls to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and to improve the oversight of our operational risk.

We evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, to date, have not experienced any material losses. The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies, minimize operational and fraud losses, and enhance our overall performance.

Loans with government guarantees

Substantially all of our loans with government guarantees continue to be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.Affairs ("VA"). In the event of a government guaranteed loan borrower default, the Bank has a unilateral option to repurchase loans sold to GNMA that are 90 days past due and recover losses through a claims process from the insurer. Nonperforming repurchased loans in this portfolio earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate from the time the underlying loan becomes delinquent, which is not paid by the FHA until claimed. Additionally, if the Bank cures the loan, it can be re-sold to GNMA. If not, the Bank can begin the process of collecting the government guarantee by filing a claim in accordance with established guidelines. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk.

In the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, we had less than $1$2.2 million in net charge-offs related to loans with government guarantees and have reserved for the remaining risks within other assets and as a component of our allowance for loan losses on residential first mortgages. These additional expenses or charges arise due to insurance limits on VA insured loans and FHA property foreclosure and preservation requirements that may result in a loss in excess of all, or part of, the guarantee.

Our loans with government guarantees portfolio totaled $814 million$2.5 billion at March 31,September 30, 2020, as compared to $736 million$0.7 billion at December 31, 2019. The increaseGNMA has granted borrowers with an option to seek forbearances on their mortgage repayments. $2.9 billion of GNMA loans are in forbearance as of September 30, 2020. When a GNMA loan is primarily due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to holding more GNMA mortgage servicing rights which have historicallyas 90 days past due) the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner. These loans are recorded in loans with government guarantees, and the liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. This resulted in higher repurchases.$1.8 billion of repurchase options as of September 30, 2020, a $1.7 billion increase from December 31, 2019. We have elected not to exercise these repurchase options as of September 30, 2020 because loans are not able to be modified and re-sold during the forbearance period. Our right to repurchase these loans continues as long as they remain unpaid for three consecutive months. At the prudent time, we intend to repurchase the loans which we believe will be accretive to net income by modifying and re-selling the loans or utilizing the partial claims process.

For further information, see Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees.Guarantees and the Credit Risk - Payment Deferrals section of the MD&A.

Representation and warranty reserve

When we sell mortgage loans, we make customary representations and warranties to the purchasers, including sponsored securitization trusts and their insurers (primarily Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac). An estimate of the fair value of the guarantee associated with the mortgage loans is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, which was $7 million and $5 million at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.2019, respectively.

Management actively reviews and manages our capital position and strategy. We conduct quarterly capital stress tests and capital adequacy assessments which utilize internally defined scenarios. These analyses are designed to help management and the Board better understand the integrated sensitivity of various risk exposures through quantifying the potential financial and capital impacts of hypothetical stressful events and scenarios. We make adjustments to our balance sheet composition taking into consideration potential business risks, regulatory requirements and the flexibility to support future growth. We prudently manage our capital position and work with our regulators to ensure that our capital levels are appropriate considering our risk profile.

The capital standards we are subject to include requirements contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act as well as guidelines reached by Basel III. These risk-based capital adequacy guidelines are intended to measure capital adequacy with regard to a banking organization’s balance sheet, including off-balance sheet exposures such as unused portions of loan commitments, letters of credit, and recourse arrangements. Our capital ratios are maintained at levels in excess of those considered to be "well-capitalized" by regulators. Tier 1 leverage was 8.098.04 percent at March 31,September 30, 2020 providing a 309853 basis pointspoint stress buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered “well-capitalized.” Additionally, total risk-based capital to RWA was 11.1811.29 percent at March 31,September 30, 2020 providing a 118283 basis point buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered "well-capitalized".

Dodd-Frank Act Section 171, commonly known as the Collins Amendment, established minimum Tier 1 leverage and
39


risk-based capital requirements for insured depository institutions, depository institution holding companies, and non-bank financial companies that are supervised under the Federal Reserve. Under the amendment, certain hybrid securities, such as trust preferred securities, may be included in Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies that had total assets below $15 billion as of December 31, 2009. As we were below $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009, the trust preferred securities classified as long term debt on our balance sheet will be included as Tier 1 capital, unless we complete an acquisition of a depository institution holding company or a depository institution and we report total assets greater than $15 billion in the


quarter in which the acquisition occurs. Should that event occur, our trust preferred securities would be included in Tier 2 capital.

Regulatory Capital Simplification

The Bank and Flagstar have been subject to the capital requirements of the Basel III rules since January 1, 2015. On July 9, 2019, the Agencies issued the Final Capital Simplification Rule (the "New Rule") which simplifies certain requirements in the Agencies’ current regulatory capital rules. We implemented capital simplification on January 1, 2020. The New Rule increased the individual limit on MSRs and temporary difference DTAs to 25 percent of CET1 and eliminated the aggregate 15 percent CET1 deduction threshold for MSRs and temporary difference DTAs.

On March 27, 2020, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule to delay for two years the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital in response to COVID-19 followed by a three-year transition period. During the two-year delay we will add back to CET1 capital 100 percent of the initial adoption impact of CECL plus 25 percent of the cumulative quarterly changes in the allowance for credit losses (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on January 1, 2022, the quarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over the three-year period.

For the period presented, the following table sets forth our capital ratios as well as our excess capital over well-capitalized minimums.

As presented in the table above, our constraining capital ratio is our total capital to risk weighted assets at 11.1811.29 percent. It would take a $211$283 million after-tax loss, with the balance sheet remaining constant, for our total risk-based capital ratio to fall below the level considered to be "well-capitalized".

     As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $223$323 million in MSRs, $78$89 million in DTAs arising from temporary differences and no material investments in unconsolidated financial institutions or minority interest which drive differences between our current capital ratios.

In addition
The allowance for credit losses was $280 millionat September 30, 2020, compared to results presented$250 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in the allowance is primarily reflective of changes in our economic forecast and judgment we applied related to those forecasts and underlying borrower credit as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic between June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020. We utilized the Moody’s September scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the third quarter 2020 was roughly equivalent to the scenario used in the second quarter 2020. Unemployment ends the year at 10 percent and recovers only slightly in 2021. GDP recovers only slightly by the end of the year from current levels and does not return to near pre-COVID level until 2024. HPI decreases 2 percent from mid-2020 through 2021. We judgmentally increased the qualitative reserves by $21 million, guided by the model output from Moody's adverse scenario, our judgment relating to industries and borrowers we believe could be more exposed to the stressful conditions in our forecast, uncertainty related to loans in forbearance and our judgment regarding economic uncertainty including the impact from the upcoming national election and additional government stimulus.

The allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 1.7 percent at September 30, 2020 compared to 0.9 percent at December 31, 2019. Excluding warehouse, the allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 3.1 percent at September 30, 2020 compared to 1.1 percent at December 31, 2019. The increase in the allowance, as a percentage of LHFI is reflective of the additional increases to the allowance to reflect the change in economic and credit forecast used during that period. At September 30, 2020, we had a 2.8 percent and 1.3 percentallowance coverage on our consumer loan portfolio and our commercial loan portfolio, respectively.

Market Risk

    Market risk is the risk of reduced earnings and/or declines in the net market value of the balance sheet due to changes in market rates. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk which impacts our net interest income, fee income related to interest sensitive activities such as mortgage closing and servicing income, and loan and deposit demand.

We are subject to interest rate risk due to:

The maturity or repricing of assets and liabilities at different times or for different amounts
Differences in short-term and long-term market interest rate changes
The remaining maturity of various assets or liabilities may shorten or lengthen as interest rates change

    Our ALCO, which is composed of our executive officers and certain members of other management, monitors interest rate risk on an ongoing basis in accordance with GAAP,policies approved by our board of directors. The ALCO reviews interest rate positions and considers the impact projected interest rate scenarios have on earnings, capital, liquidity, business strategies, and other factors. However, management has the latitude to change interest rate positions within certain limits if, in management's judgment, the change will enhance profitability or minimize risk.
32



    To assess and manage interest rate risk, sensitivity analysis is used to determine the impact on earnings and the net market value of the balance sheet across various interest rate scenarios, balance sheet trends, and strategies.

Net interest income sensitivity

    Management uses a simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates across various interest rate scenarios which demonstrates the level of interest rate risk inherent in the existing balance sheet. The analysis holds the current balance sheet values constant and does not take into account management intervention. In addition, we assume certain correlation rates, often referred to as a “deposit beta,” for interest-bearing deposits, wherein the rates paid to customers change relative to changes in benchmark interest rates. The effect on net interest income over a 12-month time horizon due to hypothetical changes in market interest rates is presented in the table below. In this report includes non-GAAPinterest rate shock simulation, as of the periods presented, interest rates have been adjusted by instantaneous parallel changes rather than in a ramp simulation which applies interest rate changes over time. All rates, short-term and long-term, are changed by the same amount (e.g. plus or minus 100 basis points) resulting in the shape of the yield curve remaining unchanged.

100$592 $34 6.0 %
Constant$559 $— — %
(100)$520 $(39)(6.9)%

    In the net interest income simulations, our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity. When interest rates rise our net interest income increases. Conversely, when interest rates fall our net interest income decreases. At September 30, 2020, the $37 million increase in net interest income in the constant scenario as compared to that at December 31, 2019 was primarily driven by the growth in our interest earning assets partially offset by lower short-term market rates.

    The net interest income sensitivity analysis has certain limitations and makes various assumptions. Key elements of this interest rate risk exposure assessment include maintaining a static balance sheet and parallel rate shocks. Future interest rates not moving in a parallel manner across the yield curve, how the balance sheet will respond and shift based on a change in future interest rates and how the Company will respond are not included in this analysis and limit the predictive value of these scenarios.

Economic value of equity

    Management also utilizes EVE, a point in time analysis of the economic value of our current balance sheet position, which measures interest rate risk over a longer term. The EVE calculation represents a hypothetical valuation of equity, and is defined as the market value of assets, less the market value of liabilities, adjusted for the market value of off-balance sheet instruments. The assessment of both the short-term earnings (Net Interest Income Sensitivity) and long-term valuation (EVE) approaches, rather than Net Interest Income Sensitivity alone provides a more comprehensive analysis of interest rate risk exposure.
    There are assumptions and inherent limitations in any methodology used to estimate the exposure to changes in market interest rates and as such, sensitivity calculations used in this analysis are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future results. This analysis evaluates risks to the current balance sheet only and does not incorporate future growth assumptions. Additionally, the analysis assumes interest rate changes are instantaneous and the new rate environment is constant but does not include actions management may undertake to manage risk in response to interest rate changes. Each rate scenario reflects unique prepayment and repricing assumptions. Management derives these assumptions by considering published market prepayment expectations, repricing characteristics, our historical experience, and our asset and liability management strategy. This analysis assumes that changes in interest rates may not affect or could partially affect certain instruments based on their characteristics.
33



    The following table is a summary of the changes in our EVE that are projected to result from hypothetical changes in market interest rates as well as our internal policy limits for changes in our EVE based on the different scenarios. The interest rates, as of the dates presented, are adjusted by instantaneous parallel rate increases and decreases as indicated in the scenarios shown in the table below.

    Our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity in various interest rate scenarios. The increase in EVE as rates raise is the result of the amount of assets that would be expected to reprice exceeding the amount of liabilities repriced. This increased as of September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 due to the addition of pay fixed interest rate swaps. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, for each scenario shown, the percentage change in our EVE is within our Board policy limits.

Derivative financial measures suchinstruments

    As a part of our risk management strategy, we use derivative financial instruments to minimize fluctuation in earnings caused by market risk. We use forward sales commitments to hedge our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline and funded mortgage LHFS. All of our derivatives and mortgage loan production originated for sale are accounted for at fair market value. Changes to our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline are based on changes in fair value of the underlying loan, which is impacted most significantly by changes in interest rates and changes in the probability that the loan will not fund within the terms of the commitment, referred to as tangible booka fallout factor or, inversely, a pull-through rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. The adequacy of these hedging strategies, and the ability to fully or partially hedge market risk, rely on various assumptions or projections, including a fallout factor, which is based on a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs)

    Our MSRs are sensitive to interest rate volatility and are highly susceptible to prepayment risk, basis risk, market volatility and changes in the shape of the yield curve. We utilize derivatives, including interest rate swaps and swaptions, as part of our overall hedging strategy to manage the impact of changes in the fair value of the MSRs, however these risk management strategies do not completely eliminate repricing risk. Our hedging strategies rely on assumptions and projections regarding assets and general market factors, many of which are outside of our control. For further information, see Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights, Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Liquidity Risk

    Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not have sufficient funds, at a reasonable cost, to meet current and future cash flow needs as they become due. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects the ability to, at a reasonable cost, meet loan demand, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate and market opportunities. The ability of a financial institution to meet current financial obligations is a function of the balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate assets, and access to various sources of funds.

Parent Company Liquidity

The Company currently obtains its liquidity primarily from dividends from the Bank. The primary uses of the Company's liquidity are debt service, operating expenses and the payment of cash dividends which were increased to $0.05 per share tangible common equityin the first quarter 2020. The Company holds $246 million of senior notes which are scheduled to assets ratio, returnmature on average tangible common equity, adjusted net incomeJuly 15, 2021. At September 30, 2020, the Company held $305 million of cash on deposit at the Bank, for future cash outflows for an
34


amount sufficient to service the senior notes, repay the senior notes at maturity, pay dividends and adjusted net income per diluted share. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in helping to understandcover the underlying performance and trendsoperating expenses of the Company.

Non-GAAP financial measures    The OCC and the FRB regulate all capital distributions made by the Bank, directly or indirectly, to the holding company, including dividend payments. Whether an application or notice is required is based on a number of factors including whether the institution qualifies for expedited treatment under the OCC rules and regulations or if the total amount of all capital distributions (including each proposed capital distribution) for the applicable calendar year exceeds net income for that year to date plus the retained net income for the preceding two years, or the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the dividend. Additional restrictions on dividends apply if the Bank fails the QTL test. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank is in compliance with the QTL test. At September 30, 2020, the Bank is able to pay dividends to the holding company of approximately $249 million without submitting an application to the OCC and remain well capitalized.

Bank Liquidity
    Our primary sources of funding are deposits from retail and government customers, custodial deposits related to loans we service and FHLB borrowings. We use the FHLB of Indianapolis as a significant source for funding our residential mortgage origination business due to the flexibility in terms which allows us to borrow or repay borrowings as daily cash needs require. The amount we can borrow, or the value we receive for the assets pledged to our liquidity providers, varies based on the amount and type of pledged collateral, as well as the perceived market value of the assets and the "haircut" of the market value of the assets. That value is sensitive to the pricing and policies of our liquidity providers and can change with little or no notice.

    Further, other sources of liquidity include our LHFS portfolio and unencumbered investment securities. We primarily originate agency-eligible LHFS and therefore the majority of new residential first mortgage loan closings are readily convertible to cash, either by selling them as part of our monthly agency sales, RMBS, private party whole loan sales, or by pledging them to the FHLB and borrowing against them. In addition, we have inherent limitations,the ability to sell unencumbered investment securities or use them as collateral. At September 30, 2020, we had $2.5 billion available in unencumbered investment securities.

    Our primary measure of liquidity is a ratio of ready liquidity to volatile funding, the volatile funds coverage ratio (“VFCR”). The VFCR is a liquidity coverage ratio that is customized to our business and ensures we have adequate coverage to meet our liquidity needs during times of liquidity stress. Volatile funds are the portion of the Bank’s funding identified as being at a higher risk of runoff in times of stress. Ready liquidity consists of cash on reserve at the Federal Reserve and unused borrowing capacity provided by the loan and investments portfolios. The VFCR is calculated, reported, and forecasted daily as part of our liquidity management framework and was 59 percent as of September 30, 2020.
    Our liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We balance the liquidity of our loan assets to our available funding sources. Our LHFI portfolio is funded with stable core deposits whereas our warehouse loans and LHFS may be funded with FHLB borrowings and custodial deposits. Warehouse loans are typically more liquid than other loan assets, as loans are paid within a short amount of time, when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. As not all asset categories require the same level of liquidity, our loan-to-deposit ratio shows how we manage our liquidity position, how much liquidity we have and the agility of our balance sheet. The Company's average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio, was 75.9 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Excluding warehouse loans, which have draws that typically pay off within a few weeks, and custodial deposits, which represent mortgage escrow accounts on deposit with the Bank, the average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio was 74.8 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

    As governed and defined by our policy, we maintain adequate excess liquidity levels appropriate to cover unanticipated liquidity needs. In addition to this liquidity, we also maintain targeted minimum levels of unused borrowing capacity as another cushion against unexpected liquidity needs. Each business day, we forecast 90 days of daily cash needs. This allows us to determine our projected near term daily cash fluctuations and also to plan and adjust, if necessary, future activities. As a result, in an adverse environment, we believe we would be able to make adjustments to operations as required to meet the liquidity needs of our business, including adjusting deposit rates to increase deposits, planning for additional FHLB borrowings, accelerating sales of LHFS (agencies and/or private), selling LHFI or investment securities, borrowing through the use of repurchase agreements, reducing closings, making changes to warehouse funding facilities, or borrowing from the discount window.

    Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.

(4)Total exposure related to uninsured deposits over $250,000 was approximately $5.6 billion and $3.6 billion at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

    Total deposits increased $4.8 billion, or 32 percent, at September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019, primarily driven by growth in our servicing business which resulted in a $3.3 billion increase in custodial deposits.

    We utilize local governmental agencies and other public units as an additional source for deposit funding. We are not required to hold collateral against our government deposits from Michigan government entities as they are covered by the Michigan Business and Growth Fund. At September 30, 2020, we were required to hold collateral for our government deposits in California that were in excess of $250,000. The total of collateral held for California at September 30, 2020 was $100 million. In Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio, we may be uniformly appliedrequired to hold collateral against our government deposits based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the size of individual deposits and external bank ratings. At September 30, 2020, collateral held on government deposits in these states was $10 million. At September 30, 2020, government deposit accounts included $0.4 billion of certificates of deposit with maturities typically less than one year and $1.3 billion of checking and savings accounts.

    Custodial deposits arise due to our servicing or subservicing of loans for others and represent the portion of the investor custodial accounts on deposit with the Bank. For certain subservice agreements, these deposits require us to credit the MSR owner interest against subservicing income. This cost is a component of net loan administration income.

    We participate in the CDARS program, through which certain customer CDs are exchanged for CDs of similar amounts from other participating banks and customers may receive FDIC insurance up to $50 million. This program helps the Bank secure larger deposits and attract and retain customers. At September 30, 2020, we had $123 million of total CDs enrolled in the CDARS program, a decrease of $10 million from December 31, 2019.

FHLBAdvances

    The FHLB provides loans, also referred to as advances, on a fully collateralized basis, to savings banks and other member financial institutions. We are required to maintain a minimum amount of qualifying collateral securing FHLB advances. In the event of default, the FHLB advance is similar to a secured borrowing, whereby the FHLB has the right to sell the pledged collateral to settle the fair value of the outstanding advances.

    We rely upon advances from the FHLB as a source of funding for the closing or purchase of loans for sale in the secondary market and for providing duration specific short-term and long-term financing. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances fluctuates from time to time depending on our current inventory of mortgage LHFS and the availability of lower cost funding sources. Our portfolio includes short-term fixed rate advances and long-term fixed rate advances.

    We are currently authorized through a resolution of our Board of Directors to apply for advances from the FHLB using approved loan types as collateral, which includes residential first mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans. As of September 30, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a line of credit with the FHLB of up to $10 billion, which is further limited based on our total assets and qualified collateral, as determined by the FHLB. At September 30, 2020, we had $2.8 billion of advances outstanding and an additional $3.1 billion of collateralized borrowing capacity available at the FHLB.

Federal Reserve Discount Window
    We have arrangements with the FRB of Chicago to borrow from its discount window. The discount window is a borrowing facility that we may utilize for short-term liquidity needs arising from special or unusual circumstances. The amount we are allowed to borrow is based on the lendable value of the collateral that we provide. To collateralize the line, we pledge investment securities and loans that are eligible based on FRB of Chicago guidelines.

    At September 30, 2020, we pledged collateral, which included commercial loans, municipal bonds, and agency bonds, to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $2.6 billion with a lendable value of $1.7 billion. At December 31, 2019, we pledged collateral to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $788 million with a lendable value of $758 million. We do not typically utilize this available funding source, and at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had no borrowings outstanding against this line of credit.
Other Unsecured Borrowings

We have access to overnight federal funds purchased lines with other Federal Reserve member institutions. We utilize this source of funding for short-term liquidity needs, depending on the availability and cost of our other funding sources. At September 30, 2020 we had $671 million of borrowings outstanding under this source of funding. Additional borrowing capacity under this and other sources of funding can vary depending on market conditions.

Debt

    As part of our overall capital strategy, we previously raised capital through the issuance of junior subordinated notes to our special purpose trusts formed for the offerings, which issued Tier 1 qualifying preferred stock ("trust preferred securities"). The trust preferred securities are callable by us at any time. Interest is payable on a quarterly basis; however, we may defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters without default or penalty. At September 30, 2020, we are current on all interest payments. Additionally, we have $246 million of senior debt outstanding at September 30, 2020 (“Senior Notes”) which matures on July 15, 2021. For further information, see Note 9 - Borrowings.

Operational Risk

    Operational risk is the risk to current or projected financial condition and resilience arising from inadequate or failed internal processes or systems, human errors or misconduct, or adverse external events which may include vendor failures, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks. We continuously strive to adapt our system of internal controls to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and to improve the oversight of our operational risk.
We evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, to date, have not experienced any material losses. The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies, minimize operational and fraud losses, and enhance our overall performance.

Loans with government guarantees

    Substantially all of our loans with government guarantees continue to be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA"). In the event of a government guaranteed loan borrower default, the Bank has a unilateral option to repurchase loans sold to GNMA that are 90 days past due and recover losses through a claims process from the insurer. Nonperforming repurchased loans in this portfolio earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate from the time the underlying loan becomes delinquent, which is not paid by the FHA until claimed. Additionally, if the Bank cures the loan, it can be re-sold to GNMA. If not, the Bank can begin the process of collecting the government guarantee by filing a claim in accordance with established guidelines. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk.

    In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had less than $2.2 million in net charge-offs related to loans with government guarantees and have reserved for the remaining risks within other assets and as a component of our allowance for loan losses on residential first mortgages. These additional expenses or charges arise due to insurance limits on VA insured loans and FHA property foreclosure and preservation requirements that may result in a loss in excess of all, or part of, the guarantee.

    Our loans with government guarantees portfolio totaled $2.5 billion at September 30, 2020, as compared to $0.7 billion at December 31, 2019. GNMA has granted borrowers with an option to seek forbearances on their mortgage repayments. $2.9 billion of GNMA loans are in forbearance as of September 30, 2020. When a GNMA loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due) the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner. These loans are recorded in loans with government guarantees, and the liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. This resulted in $1.8 billion of repurchase options as of September 30, 2020, a $1.7 billion increase from December 31, 2019. We have elected not to exercise these repurchase options as of September 30, 2020 because loans are not audited. Readers shouldable to be awaremodified and re-sold during the forbearance period. Our right to repurchase these loans continues as long as they remain unpaid for three consecutive months. At the prudent time, we intend to repurchase the loans which we believe will be accretive to net income by modifying and re-selling the loans or utilizing the partial claims process.

    For further information, see Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees and the Credit Risk - Payment Deferrals section of these limitationsthe MD&A.

Representation and should be cautious with respectwarranty reserve

    When we sell mortgage loans, we make customary representations and warranties to the usepurchasers, including sponsored securitization trusts and their insurers (primarily Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac). An estimate of such measures. To mitigate these limitations, we have practicesthe fair value of the guarantee associated with the mortgage loans is recorded in placeother liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, which was $7 million and $5 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Capital
    Management actively reviews and manages our capital position and strategy. We conduct quarterly capital stress tests and capital adequacy assessments which utilize internally defined scenarios. These analyses are designed to ensure that these measures are calculated usinghelp management and the appropriate GAAP orBoard better understand the integrated sensitivity of various risk exposures through quantifying the potential financial and capital impacts of hypothetical stressful events and scenarios. We make adjustments to our balance sheet composition taking into consideration potential business risks, regulatory components in their entiretyrequirements and the flexibility to support future growth. We prudently manage our capital position and work with our regulators to ensure that our performance is properly reflectedcapital levels are appropriate considering our risk profile.

    The capital standards we are subject to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Our method of calculating these non-GAAP measures may differ from methods usedinclude requirements contemplated by other companies. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors' understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for those


financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure,Dodd-Frank Act as well as guidelines reached by Basel III. These risk-based capital adequacy guidelines are intended to measure capital adequacy with regard to a banking organization’s balance sheet, including off-balance sheet exposures such as unused portions of loan commitments, letters of credit, and recourse arrangements. Our capital ratios are maintained at levels in excess of those considered to be "well-capitalized" by regulators. Tier 1 leverage was 8.04 percent at September 30, 2020 providing a 853 basis point stress buffer above the reconciliationminimum level needed to be considered “well-capitalized.” Additionally, total risk-based capital to RWA was 11.29 percent at September 30, 2020 providing a 283 basis point buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered "well-capitalized".

    Dodd-Frank Act Section 171, commonly known as the Collins Amendment, established minimum Tier 1 leverage and
39


risk-based capital requirements for insured depository institutions, depository institution holding companies, and non-bank financial companies that are supervised under the Federal Reserve. Under the amendment, certain hybrid securities, such as trust preferred securities, may be included in Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies that had total assets below $15 billion as of December 31, 2009. As we were below $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009, the trust preferred securities classified as long term debt on our balance sheet will be included as Tier 1 capital, unless we complete an acquisition of a depository institution holding company or a depository institution and we report total assets greater than $15 billion in the quarter in which the acquisition occurs. Should that event occur, our trust preferred securities would be included in Tier 2 capital.

Regulatory Capital

    The Bank and Flagstar have been subject to the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, can be found in this report.

Tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to assets ratio, return on average tangible common equity, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share. The Company believes that tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to assets ratio, return on average tangible common equity, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share provide a meaningful representation of its operating performance on an ongoing basis. Management uses these measures to assess performancecapital requirements of the Company against its peersBasel III rules since January 1, 2015. On July 9, 2019, the Agencies issued the Final Capital Simplification Rule (the "New Rule") which simplifies certain requirements in the Agencies’ current regulatory capital rules. We implemented capital simplification on January 1, 2020. The New Rule increased the individual limit on MSRs and evaluate overall performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful informationtemporary difference DTAs to 25 percent of CET1 and eliminated the aggregate 15 percent CET1 deduction threshold for investors, securities analystsMSRs and others because they providetemporary difference DTAs.

    On March 27, 2020, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule to delay for two years the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital in response to COVID-19 followed by a toolthree-year transition period. During the two-year delay we will add back to evaluateCET1 capital 100 percent of the Company’s performanceinitial adoption impact of CECL plus 25 percent of the cumulative quarterly changes in the allowance for credit losses (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on an ongoing basis and compared to its peers.January 1, 2022, the quarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over the three-year period.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Various elements of our accounting policies, by their nature, are subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. Certain accounting policies that, due to(1)Excess capital is the judgment, estimates and assumptions are critical to an understanding of our Consolidated Financial Statementsdifference between the actual capital ratios under current simplification rules and the Notes, are described in Item 1. These policies relate to: (a)well-capitalized minimum ratio, multiplied by the determination of our ACL and (b) fair value measurements. We believe the judgment, estimates and assumptions usedrelevant asset base.
    As presented in the preparationtable above, our constraining capital ratio is our total capital to risk weighted assets at 11.29 percent. It would take a $283 million after-tax loss, with the balance sheet remaining constant, for our total risk-based capital ratio to fall below the level considered to be "well-capitalized".

     As of September 30, 2020, we had $323 million in MSRs, $89 million in DTAs arising from temporary differences and no material investments in unconsolidated financial institutions or minority interest which drive differences between our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes are appropriate given the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity ofcurrent capital ratios. For additional information on our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in our results of operations and/or financial condition.capital requirements, see Note 14 - Regulatory Matters.

The allowance for credit losses was $280 millionat September 30, 2020, compared to $250 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in the allowance is primarily reflective of changes in our economic forecast and judgment we applied related to those forecasts and underlying borrower credit as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic between June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020. We utilized the Moody’s September scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the third quarter 2020 was roughly equivalent to the scenario used in the second quarter 2020. Unemployment ends the year at 10 percent and recovers only slightly in 2021. GDP recovers only slightly by the end of the year from current levels and does not return to near pre-COVID level until 2024. HPI decreases 2 percent from mid-2020 through 2021. We judgmentally increased the qualitative reserves by $21 million, guided by the model output from Moody's adverse scenario, our judgment relating to industries and borrowers we believe could be more exposed to the stressful conditions in our forecast, uncertainty related to loans in forbearance and our judgment regarding economic uncertainty including the impact from the upcoming national election and additional government stimulus.

The allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 1.7 percent at September 30, 2020 compared to 0.9 percent at December 31, 2019. Excluding warehouse, the allowance as a percentage of LHFI was 3.1 percent at September 30, 2020 compared to 1.1 percent at December 31, 2019. The increase in the allowance, as a percentage of LHFI is reflective of the additional increases to the allowance to reflect the change in economic and credit forecast used during that period. At September 30, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected (i.e. net of expected credit losses). In addition, the standard requireshad a reserve to be recorded for lifetime expected losses2.8 percent and 1.3 percentallowance coverage on our unfunded commitments. Therefore, we record anconsumer loan portfolio and our commercial loan portfolio, respectively.

Market Risk

    Market risk is the risk of reduced earnings and/or declines in the net market value of the balance sheet due to changes in market rates. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk which impacts our net interest income, fee income related to interest sensitive activities such as mortgage closing and servicing income, and loan and deposit demand.

We are subject to interest rate risk due to:

The maturity or repricing of assets and liabilities at different times or for different amounts
Differences in short-term and long-term market interest rate changes
The remaining maturity of various assets or liabilities may shorten or lengthen as interest rates change

    Our ALCO, which is composed of our executive officers and certain members of other management, monitors interest rate risk on an ongoing basis in accordance with policies approved by our consolidated statementsboard of financial position, collectivelydirectors. The ALCO reviews interest rate positions and considers the impact projected interest rate scenarios have on earnings, capital, liquidity, business strategies, and other factors. However, management has the latitude to change interest rate positions within certain limits if, in management's judgment, the change will enhance profitability or minimize risk.
32



    To assess and manage interest rate risk, sensitivity analysis is used to determine the impact on earnings and the net market value of the balance sheet across various interest rate scenarios, balance sheet trends, and strategies.

Net interest income sensitivity

    Management uses a simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates across various interest rate scenarios which demonstrates the level of interest rate risk inherent in the existing balance sheet. The analysis holds the current balance sheet values constant and does not take into account management intervention. In addition, we assume certain correlation rates, often referred to as a “deposit beta,” for interest-bearing deposits, wherein the allowancerates paid to customers change relative to changes in benchmark interest rates. The effect on net interest income over a 12-month time horizon due to hypothetical changes in market interest rates is presented in the table below. In this interest rate shock simulation, as of the periods presented, interest rates have been adjusted by instantaneous parallel changes rather than in a ramp simulation which applies interest rate changes over time. All rates, short-term and long-term, are changed by the same amount (e.g. plus or minus 100 basis points) resulting in the shape of the yield curve remaining unchanged.

    In the net interest income simulations, our balance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity. When interest rates rise our net interest income increases. Conversely, when interest rates fall our net interest income decreases. At September 30, 2020, the $37 million increase in net interest income in the constant scenario as compared to that at December 31, 2019 was primarily driven by the growth in our interest earning assets partially offset by lower short-term market rates.

    The net interest income sensitivity analysis has certain limitations and makes various assumptions. Key elements of this interest rate risk exposure assessment include maintaining a static balance sheet and parallel rate shocks. Future interest rates not moving in a parallel manner across the yield curve, how the balance sheet will respond and shift based on a change in future interest rates and how the Company will respond are not included in this analysis and limit the predictive value of these scenarios.

Economic value of equity

    Management also utilizes EVE, a point in time analysis of the economic value of our current balance sheet position, which measures interest rate risk over a longer term. The EVE calculation represents a hypothetical valuation of equity, and is defined as the market value of assets, less the market value of liabilities, adjusted for credit losses.the market value of off-balance sheet instruments. The assessment of both the short-term earnings (Net Interest Income Sensitivity) and long-term valuation (EVE) approaches, rather than Net Interest Income Sensitivity alone provides a more comprehensive analysis of interest rate risk exposure.
    There are assumptions and inherent limitations in any methodology used to estimate the exposure to changes in market interest rates and as such, sensitivity calculations used in this analysis are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future results. This analysis evaluates risks to the current balance sheet only and does not incorporate future growth assumptions. Additionally, the analysis assumes interest rate changes are instantaneous and the new rate environment is constant but does not include actions management may undertake to manage risk in response to interest rate changes. Each rate scenario reflects unique prepayment and repricing assumptions. Management derives these assumptions by considering published market prepayment expectations, repricing characteristics, our historical experience, and our asset and liability management strategy. This analysis assumes that changes in interest rates may not affect or could partially affect certain instruments based on their characteristics.

    The following table is a summary of the changes in our EVE that are projected to result from hypothetical changes in market interest rates as well as our internal policy limits for changes in our EVE based on the different scenarios. The interest rates, as of the dates presented, are adjusted by instantaneous parallel rate increases and decreases as indicated in the scenarios shown in the table below.

Our estimatebalance sheet exhibits asset sensitivity in various interest rate scenarios. The increase in EVE as rates raise is the result of lifetimethe amount of assets that would be expected credit losses includesto reprice exceeding the amount of liabilities repriced. This increased as of September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019 due to the addition of pay fixed interest rate swaps. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, for each scenario shown, the percentage change in our EVE is within our Board policy limits.

Derivative financial instruments

    As a part of our risk management strategy, we use derivative financial instruments to minimize fluctuation in earnings caused by market risk. We use forward sales commitments to hedge our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline and funded mortgage LHFS. All of our derivatives and mortgage loan production originated for sale are accounted for at fair market value. Changes to our unclosed mortgage closing pipeline are based on changes in fair value of the underlying loan, which is impacted most significantly by changes in interest rates and changes in the probability that the loan will not fund within the terms of the commitment, referred to as a fallout factor or, inversely, a pull-through rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. The adequacy of these hedging strategies, and the ability to fully or partially hedge market risk, rely on various assumptions or projections, including a fallout factor, which is based on a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs)

    Our MSRs are sensitive to interest rate volatility and are highly susceptible to prepayment risk, basis risk, market volatility and changes in the shape of the yield curve. We utilize derivatives, including interest rate swaps and swaptions, as part of our overall hedging strategy to manage the impact of changes in the fair value of the MSRs, however these risk management strategies do not completely eliminate repricing risk. Our hedging strategies rely on assumptions and projections regarding assets and general market factors, many of which are outside of our control. For further information, see Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights, Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Liquidity Risk

    Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not have sufficient funds, at a reasonable cost, to meet current and future cash flow needs as they become due. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects the ability to, at a reasonable cost, meet loan demand, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate and market opportunities. The ability of a financial institution to meet current financial obligations is a function of the balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate assets, and access to various sources of funds.

Parent Company Liquidity

The Company currently obtains its liquidity primarily from dividends from the Bank. The primary uses of the Company's liquidity are debt service, operating expenses and the payment of cash dividends which were increased to $0.05 per share in the first quarter 2020. The Company holds $246 million of senior notes which are scheduled to mature on July 15, 2021. At September 30, 2020, the Company held $305 million of cash on deposit at the Bank, for future cash outflows for an
34


amount sufficient to service the senior notes, repay the senior notes at maturity, pay dividends and cover the operating expenses of the Company.

    The OCC and the FRB regulate all capital distributions made by the Bank, directly or indirectly, to the holding company, including dividend payments. Whether an application or notice is required is based on a number of factors including whether the institution qualifies for expedited treatment under the OCC rules and regulations or if the total amount of all capital distributions (including each proposed capital distribution) for the applicable calendar year exceeds net income for that year to date plus the retained net income for the preceding two years, or the Bank would not be at least adequately capitalized following the dividend. Additional restrictions on dividends apply if the Bank fails the QTL test. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank is in compliance with the QTL test. At September 30, 2020, the Bank is able to pay dividends to the holding company of approximately $249 million without submitting an application to the OCC and remain well capitalized.

Bank Liquidity
    Our primary sources of funding are deposits from retail and government customers, custodial deposits related to loans we service and FHLB borrowings. We use the FHLB of Indianapolis as a significant source for funding our residential mortgage origination business due to the flexibility in terms which allows us to borrow or repay borrowings as daily cash needs require. The amount we can borrow, or the value we receive for the assets pledged to our liquidity providers, varies based on the amount and type of pledged collateral, as well as the perceived market value of the assets and the "haircut" of the market value of the assets. That value is sensitive to the pricing and policies of our liquidity providers and can change with little or no notice.

    Further, other sources of liquidity include our LHFS portfolio and unencumbered investment securities. We primarily originate agency-eligible LHFS and therefore the majority of new residential first mortgage loan closings are readily convertible to cash, either by selling them as part of our monthly agency sales, RMBS, private party whole loan sales, or by pledging them to the FHLB and borrowing against them. In addition, we have the ability to sell unencumbered investment securities or use them as collateral. At September 30, 2020, we had $2.5 billion available in unencumbered investment securities.

    Our primary measure of liquidity is a ratio of ready liquidity to volatile funding, the volatile funds coverage ratio (“VFCR”). The VFCR is a liquidity coverage ratio that is customized to our business and ensures we have adequate coverage to meet our liquidity needs during times of liquidity stress. Volatile funds are the portion of the Bank’s funding identified as being at a higher risk of runoff in times of stress. Ready liquidity consists of cash on reserve at the Federal Reserve and unused borrowing capacity provided by the loan and investments portfolios. The VFCR is calculated, reported, and forecasted daily as part of our liquidity management framework and was 59 percent as of September 30, 2020.
    Our liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. We balance the liquidity of our loan assets to our available funding sources. Our LHFI portfolio is funded with stable core deposits whereas our warehouse loans and LHFS may be funded with FHLB borrowings and custodial deposits. Warehouse loans are typically more liquid than other loan assets, as loans are paid within a short amount of time, when the lender sells the loan to an outside investor or, in some instances, to the Bank. As not all asset categories require the same level of liquidity, our loan-to-deposit ratio shows how we manage our liquidity position, how much liquidity we have and the agility of our balance sheet. The Company's average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio, was 75.9 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Excluding warehouse loans, which have draws that typically pay off within a few weeks, and custodial deposits, which represent mortgage escrow accounts on deposit with the Bank, the average HFI loan-to-deposit ratio was 74.8 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

    As governed and defined by our policy, we maintain adequate excess liquidity levels appropriate to cover unanticipated liquidity needs. In addition to this liquidity, we also maintain targeted minimum levels of unused borrowing capacity as another cushion against unexpected liquidity needs. Each business day, we forecast 90 days of daily cash needs. This allows us to determine our projected near term daily cash fluctuations and also to plan and adjust, if necessary, future activities. As a result, in an adverse environment, we believe we would be able to make adjustments to operations as required to meet the liquidity needs of our business, including adjusting deposit rates to increase deposits, planning for additional FHLB borrowings, accelerating sales of LHFS (agencies and/or private), selling LHFI or investment securities, borrowing through the use of quantitative modelsrepurchase agreements, reducing closings, making changes to warehouse funding facilities, or borrowing from the discount window.

    Management is not aware of any events that incorporate forward looking macroeconomic scenarios applied overare reasonably likely to have a reasonablematerial adverse effect on our liquidity.

    Total deposits increased $4.8 billion, or 32 percent, at September 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019, primarily driven by growth in credit losses. These variables include, butour servicing business which resulted in a $3.3 billion increase in custodial deposits.

    We utilize local governmental agencies and other public units as an additional source for deposit funding. We are not limitedrequired to unemployment rates, real estate prices,hold collateral against our government deposits from Michigan government entities as they are covered by the Michigan Business and gross domestic product levels.Growth Fund. At September 30, 2020, we were required to hold collateral for our government deposits in California that were in excess of $250,000. The scenarios that are chosen each quartertotal of collateral held for California at September 30, 2020 was $100 million. In Indiana, Wisconsin and the amount of weighting givenOhio, we may be required to each scenario dependhold collateral against our government deposits based on a variety of factors including, recent economic events, leading economic indicators, views of third-party economists and industry trends.
We also perform a qualitative assessment to determine if the reserve is appropriate in our judgment and is adequate, but not excessive, to cover losses that are expected but, in our assessment, not adequately represented in the economic assumptions or modeling described above. We consider the following factors in our qualitative assessment: changes in lending policies and procedures, economic and business conditions, the nature and volume of the portfolio, experience of lending staff, the volume and severity of past due loans and nonaccrual loans, changes in quality of loan review, changes in value of underlying collateral, portfolio concentrations, the effect of external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements, and prepayment rate.
The allowance for credit losses can also be impacted by unanticipated changes in asset quality of the portfolio, including but not limited to, increasesthe size of individual deposits and external bank ratings. At September 30, 2020, collateral held on government deposits in risk rating changesthese states was $10 million. At September 30, 2020, government deposit accounts included $0.4 billion of certificates of deposit with maturities typically less than one year and $1.3 billion of checking and savings accounts.

    Custodial deposits arise due to our servicing or subservicing of loans for others and represent the portion of the investor custodial accounts on deposit with the Bank. For certain subservice agreements, these deposits require us to credit the MSR owner interest against subservicing income. This cost is a component of net loan administration income.

    We participate in the CDARS program, through which certain customer CDs are exchanged for CDs of similar amounts from other participating banks and customers may receive FDIC insurance up to $50 million. This program helps the Bank secure larger deposits and attract and retain customers. At September 30, 2020, we had $123 million of total CDs enrolled in the CDARS program, a decrease of $10 million from December 31, 2019.

FHLBAdvances

    The FHLB provides loans, also referred to as advances, on a fully collateralized basis, to savings banks and other member financial institutions. We are required to maintain a minimum amount of qualifying collateral securing FHLB advances. In the event of default, the FHLB advance is similar to a secured borrowing, whereby the FHLB has the right to sell the pledged collateral to settle the fair value of the outstanding advances.

    We rely upon advances from the FHLB as a source of funding for the closing or purchase of loans for sale in the secondary market and for providing duration specific short-term and long-term financing. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances fluctuates from time to time depending on our current inventory of mortgage LHFS and the availability of lower cost funding sources. Our portfolio includes short-term fixed rate advances and long-term fixed rate advances.

    We are currently authorized through a resolution of our Board of Directors to apply for advances from the FHLB using approved loan types as collateral, which includes residential first mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial portfolio, borrower delinquencies, changes in FICO scoresreal estate loans. As of September 30, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a line of credit with the FHLB of up to $10 billion, which is further limited based on our total assets and qualified collateral, as determined by the FHLB. At September 30, 2020, we had $2.8 billion of advances outstanding and an additional $3.1 billion of collateralized borrowing capacity available at the FHLB.

Federal Reserve Discount Window
    We have arrangements with the FRB of Chicago to borrow from its discount window. The discount window is a borrowing facility that we may utilize for short-term liquidity needs arising from special or changes in LTVs inunusual circumstances. The amount we are allowed to borrow is based on the lendable value of the collateral that we provide. To collateralize the line, we pledge investment securities and loans that are eligible based on FRB of Chicago guidelines.

    At September 30, 2020, we pledged collateral, which included commercial loans, municipal bonds, and agency bonds, to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $2.6 billion with a lendable value of $1.7 billion. At December 31, 2019, we pledged collateral to the FRB of Chicago amounting to $788 million with a lendable value of $758 million. We do not typically utilize this available funding source, and at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had no borrowings outstanding against this line of credit.
Other Unsecured Borrowings

We have access to overnight federal funds purchased lines with other Federal Reserve member institutions. We utilize this source of funding for short-term liquidity needs, depending on the availability and cost of our consumer portfolio. In addition, whileother funding sources. At September 30, 2020 we had $671 million of borrowings outstanding under this source of funding. Additional borrowing capacity under this and other sources of funding can vary depending on market conditions.

Debt

    As part of our overall capital strategy, we previously raised capital through the issuance of junior subordinated notes to our special purpose trusts formed for the offerings, which issued Tier 1 qualifying preferred stock ("trust preferred securities"). The trust preferred securities are callable by us at any time. Interest is payable on a quarterly basis; however, we may defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters without default or penalty. At September 30, 2020, we are current on all interest payments. Additionally, we have incorporated$246 million of senior debt outstanding at September 30, 2020 (“Senior Notes”) which matures on July 15, 2021. For further information, see Note 9 - Borrowings.

Operational Risk

    Operational risk is the risk to current or projected financial condition and resilience arising from inadequate or failed internal processes or systems, human errors or misconduct, or adverse external events which may include vendor failures, fraudulent activities, disasters, and security risks. We continuously strive to adapt our estimated impactsystem of COVID-19 intointernal controls to ensure compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and to improve the oversight of our operational risk.
We evaluate internal systems, processes and controls to mitigate loss from cyber-attacks and, to date, have not experienced any material losses. The goal of this framework is to implement effective operational risk techniques and strategies, minimize operational and fraud losses, and enhance our overall performance.

38


Loans with government guarantees

    Substantially all of our loans with government guarantees continue to be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA"). In the event of a government guaranteed loan borrower default, the Bank has a unilateral option to repurchase loans sold to GNMA that are 90 days past due and recover losses through a claims process from the insurer. Nonperforming repurchased loans in this portfolio earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate from the time the underlying loan becomes delinquent, which is not paid by the FHA until claimed. Additionally, if the Bank cures the loan, it can be re-sold to GNMA. If not, the Bank can begin the process of collecting the government guarantee by filing a claim in accordance with established guidelines. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk.

    In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had less than $2.2 million in net charge-offs related to loans with government guarantees and have reserved for the remaining risks within other assets and as a component of our allowance for loan losses on residential first mortgages. These additional expenses or charges arise due to insurance limits on VA insured loans and FHA property foreclosure and preservation requirements that may result in a loss in excess of all, or part of, the guarantee.

    Our loans with government guarantees portfolio totaled $2.5 billion at September 30, 2020, as compared to $0.7 billion at December 31, 2019. GNMA has granted borrowers with an option to seek forbearances on their mortgage repayments. $2.9 billion of GNMA loans are in forbearance as of September 30, 2020. When a GNMA loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due) the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner. These loans are recorded in loans with government guarantees, and the liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. This resulted in $1.8 billion of repurchase options as of September 30, 2020, a $1.7 billion increase from December 31, 2019. We have elected not to exercise these repurchase options as of September 30, 2020 because loans are not able to be modified and re-sold during the forbearance period. Our right to repurchase these loans continues as long as they remain unpaid for three consecutive months. At the prudent time, we intend to repurchase the loans which we believe will be accretive to net income by modifying and re-selling the loans or utilizing the partial claims process.

    For further information, see Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees and the Credit Risk - Payment Deferrals section of the MD&A.

Representation and warranty reserve

    When we sell mortgage loans, we make customary representations and warranties to the purchasers, including sponsored securitization trusts and their insurers (primarily Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac). An estimate of the fair value of the guarantee associated with the mortgage loans is recorded in other liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, which was $7 million and $5 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Capital
    Management actively reviews and manages our capital position and strategy. We conduct quarterly capital stress tests and capital adequacy assessments which utilize internally defined scenarios. These analyses are designed to help management and the Board better understand the integrated sensitivity of various risk exposures through quantifying the potential financial and capital impacts of hypothetical stressful events and scenarios. We make adjustments to our balance sheet composition taking into consideration potential business risks, regulatory requirements and the flexibility to support future growth. We prudently manage our capital position and work with our regulators to ensure that our capital levels are appropriate considering our risk profile.

    The capital standards we are subject to include requirements contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act as well as guidelines reached by Basel III. These risk-based capital adequacy guidelines are intended to measure capital adequacy with regard to a banking organization’s balance sheet, including off-balance sheet exposures such as unused portions of loan commitments, letters of credit, losses,and recourse arrangements. Our capital ratios are maintained at levels in excess of those considered to be "well-capitalized" by regulators. Tier 1 leverage was 8.04 percent at September 30, 2020 providing a 853 basis point stress buffer above the ultimateminimum level needed to be considered “well-capitalized.” Additionally, total risk-based capital to RWA was 11.29 percent at September 30, 2020 providing a 283 basis point buffer above the minimum level needed to be considered "well-capitalized".

    Dodd-Frank Act Section 171, commonly known as the Collins Amendment, established minimum Tier 1 leverage and
39


risk-based capital requirements for insured depository institutions, depository institution holding companies, and non-bank financial companies that are supervised under the Federal Reserve. Under the amendment, certain hybrid securities, such as trust preferred securities, may be included in Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies that had total assets below $15 billion as of December 31, 2009. As we were below $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009, the trust preferred securities classified as long term debt on our balance sheet will be included as Tier 1 capital, unless we complete an acquisition of a depository institution holding company or a depository institution and we report total assets greater than $15 billion in the quarter in which the acquisition occurs. Should that event occur, our trust preferred securities would be included in Tier 2 capital.

Regulatory Capital

    The Bank and Flagstar have been subject to the capital requirements of the Basel III rules since January 1, 2015. On July 9, 2019, the Agencies issued the Final Capital Simplification Rule (the "New Rule") which simplifies certain requirements in the Agencies’ current regulatory capital rules. We implemented capital simplification on January 1, 2020. The New Rule increased the individual limit on MSRs and temporary difference DTAs to 25 percent of CET1 and eliminated the aggregate 15 percent CET1 deduction threshold for MSRs and temporary difference DTAs.

    On March 27, 2020, U.S. banking regulators issued an interim final rule to delay for two years the initial adoption impact of CECL on regulatory capital in response to COVID-19 is still unknown, including how long economic activitiesfollowed by a three-year transition period. During the two-year delay we will be impacted and what effectadd back to CET1 capital 100 percent of the unprecedented levelsinitial adoption impact of government fiscal and monetary actions will have onCECL plus 25 percent of the economy and our credit losses.
As described above, the process to determine the allowance for credit losses requires numerous estimates and assumptions, some of which require a high degree of judgment and are often interrelated. Changes in the estimates and assumptions can result in significantcumulative quarterly changes in the allowance for credit losses. Our process for determininglosses (i.e., quarterly transitional amounts). After two years, starting on January 1, 2022, the allowance for credit lossesquarterly transitional amounts along with the initial adoption impact of CECL will be phased out of CET1 capital over the three-year period.

It would take a $283 million after-tax loss, with the balance sheet remaining constant, for our total risk-based capital ratio to fall below the level considered to be "well-capitalized".

     As of September 30, 2020, we had $323 million in MSRs, $89 million in DTAs arising from temporary differences and no material investments in unconsolidated financial institutions or minority interest which drive differences between our current capital ratios. For additional information on our capital requirements, see Note 14 - Regulatory Matters.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in helping to understand the underlying performance and trends of the MD&ACompany.

    Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, which are not required to be uniformly applied and Note 4 - Loans Heldare not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious with respect to the use of such measures. To mitigate these limitations, we have practices in place to ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and to ensure that our performance is properly reflected to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Our method of calculating these non-GAAP measures may differ from methods used by other
40


companies. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report enhance investors' understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for Investment.those financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, can be found in this report.

    Tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to assets ratio, return on average tangible common equity and adjusted net interest margin. The Company believes that tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to assets ratio, return on average tangible common equity and adjusted net interest margin provide a meaningful representation of its operating performance on an ongoing basis. Management uses these measures to assess performance of the Company against its peers and evaluate overall performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information for investors, securities analysts and others because they provide a tool to evaluate the Company’s performance on an ongoing basis and compared to its peers.

    The following table provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.

Critical Accounting Estimates

    Various elements of our accounting policies, by their nature, are subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. Certain accounting policies that, due to the judgment, estimates and assumptions are critical to an understanding of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes, are described in Item 1. These policies relate to: (a) the determination of our ACL and (b) fair value measurements. We believe the judgment, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes are appropriate given the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity of our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in our results of operations and/or financial condition.
41



For further information on our critical accounting policies, please refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which isare available on our website, flagstar.com, under the Investor Relations section, or on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, at sec.gov.




Forward – Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, including but not limited to statements included within the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed with or furnished to the Security and Exchange Commission, (SEC), and our management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, representatives of the media, and others.

Generally, forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent management’s current beliefs and expectations regarding future events and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Other than as required under United States securities laws, Flagstar does not undertake to update the forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date of the forward-looking statements. Such statements may be identified by words such as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, plan, estimate, may increase, may fluctuate, and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as will, should, would, and could. Our actual results and capital and other financial conditions may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements depending upon a variety of factors, including without limitation the precautionary statements included within each individual business’ discussion and analysis of our results of operations and the risk factors listed and described in Item 1A to Part I, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which are incorporated by reference herein, and Item 1A. to Part II, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are incorporated by reference herein.for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Other than as required under United States securities laws, we do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date of the forward-looking statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements of Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. ("Flagstar," or the "Company"), including its wholly owned principal subsidiary, Flagstar Bank, FSB (the "Bank"), have been prepared using U.S. GAAP for interim financial statements. Where we say "we," "us," "our," the "Company," "Bancorp" or "Flagstar," we usually mean Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. However, in some cases, a reference to "we," "us," "our," the "Company" or "Flagstar" will include the Bank.

These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for a full year presentation and certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. These interim financial statements are unaudited and include, in our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods indicated, which are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for the full year.

We evaluate AFS debt securities where the value has declined below amortized cost for impairment. If we intend to sell or believe it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the debt security, it is written down to fair value through earnings. For AFS debt securities we intend to hold, we evaluate the debt securities for expected credit losses, except for debt securities that are guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies or sovereign entities of high credit quality for

which we apply a zero credit loss assumption and which represented 9594 percent of our AFS portfolio as of March 31,September 30, 2020. For the remaining AFS securities, credit losses are recognized as an increase to the allowance for credit losses through the credit loss provision.  If any of the decline in fair value is related to market factors, that amount is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI).OCI. We have nohad 0 unrealized credit losses as of March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

We separately evaluate our HTM debt securities for any credit losses.

Unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities have not been recognized into income because almost all of the portfolio held by us are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses. The remaining unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities are municipal securities and corporate debt obligations, all of which are considered investment grade or are de minimis. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

We pledge investment securities, primarily agency collateralized and municipal taxable mortgage obligations, to collateralize lines of credit and/or borrowings. At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had pledged investment securities of $828$176 million and $874 million, respectively.

Note 3 - Loans Held-for-Sale

The majority of our mortgage loans originated as LHFS are ultimately sold into the secondary market on a whole loan basis or by securitizing the loans into agency, government, or private label mortgage-backed securities. LHFS totaled $4.4$5.4 billion and $5.3 billion at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 we had net gain on loan sales associated with LHFS of $89$344 million and $737 million as compared to $47$110 million and $232 million for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019.

At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $24$15 million and $39 million, respectively, of LHFS were recorded at lower of cost or fair value. We elected the fair value option for the remainder of the loans in the portfolio.

Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Investment

We classify loans that we have the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity as LHFI. We report LHFI at their amortized cost, which includes the outstanding principal balance adjusted for any unamortized premiums, discounts, deferred fees and costs. The accrued interest receivable on loans held-for-investment totaled $36.1$41.0 million at March 31,September 30, 2020 and $36.9 million at December 31, 2019 and was reported in Otherother assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

We have pledged certain LHFI, LHFS, and loans with government guarantees to collateralize lines of credit and/or borrowings with the FHLB of Indianapolis and the FRB of Chicago. At March 31,September 30, 2020 we had pledged loans of $8.3$10.7 billion, compared to $9.1 billion at December 31, 2019.

Allowance for Loan Losses
We determine the estimate of the allowance for loan losses on at least a quarterly basis. The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of lifetime losses in our LHFI portfolio, excluding loans carried under the fair value option. We establish an allowance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance uses a loan-level, model-based approach, to estimate the expected lifetime credit losses. For non-performing loans, we've elected to use the collateral dependent practical expedient. The reserve for collateral dependent loans is established as the difference between fair value of the collateral less cost to sell and the amortized cost of the loan. Management applies judgment and assigns qualitative factors to each loan
51


portfolio segment or the portfolio as a whole based upon the consideration of the following factors: levels of and trends in delinquencies and performance of loans, levels of and trends in write-offs and recoveries collected, changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, changes in reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in economic and business conditions, changes in lending management, changes in credit quality statistics, changes in the quality of the loan review system, changes in prepayment expectations or other factors affecting assessments of loan contractual term, changes in concentrations of credit, industry conditions and other internal or external factor changes.

A specific allowance is established on impaired loans when it is probable all amounts due will not be collected pursuant to the original contractual terms of the loan and the recorded investment in the loan exceeds its fair value. The required allowance is measured using either the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent.
A general allowance is established for lifetime losses inherent on non-impaired loans by segmenting the portfolio based upon common risk characteristics. Our consumer loan portfolio is segmented into Residential First Mortgage, Home Equity and Other Consumer. Loan characteristics impacting these segments include lien position, credit quality, and loan structure. At a high-level our commercial loans are segmented into Commercial Real Estate, Commercial and Industrial, and Warehouse Lending. Loan characteristics impacting these segments include credit quality and loan structure.
We measure the allowance using the applicable dual risk rating model which measures probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we estimated losses over a two-year reasonable and supportable forecast period using a macroeconomic scenarioscenarios before reverting economic variables over a one-year period to itstheir long-term historical averages on a straight-line basis. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we forecasted that we areutilized the Moody’s September scenarios in our forecast: a sudden, sharpgrowth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and severe downturn as a resultan adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the third quarter of 2020 was roughly equivalent to the COVID-19 pandemic, only partially recovering laterscenario used in the year. Our forecast includes an annualized GDP contraction of 18 percent during the second quarter a 3 percent decrease in HPI throughout the remainder of2020. Unemployment ends the year at 10 percent and a 9 percent spikerecovers only slightly in unemployment during the second quarter before moderating to 7 percent at2021. GDP recovers only slightly by the end of the year.



year from current levels and does not return to near pre-COVID level until 2024. HPI decreases 2 percent from mid-2020 through 2021.

The allowance for loan losses was $132$255 million at March 31,September 30, 2020 and $127$110 million at March 31,September 30, 2019. The increase in the allowance is reflective of the adoption of CECL, and an increase due to changes in the economic forecastforecasts used in the ACL models as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic partially offsetand credit downgrades largely attributed to challenging economic conditions being faced by sustained low delinquencies and charge-off levels.certain of our borrowers due to the pandemic.
Loans are considered to be past due when any payment of principal or interest is 30 days past the scheduled payment date. While it is the goal of management to collect on loans, we attempt to work out a satisfactory repayment schedule or modification with past due borrowers and will undertake foreclosure proceedings if the delinquency is not satisfactorily resolved. Our practices regarding past due loans are designed to both assist borrowers in meeting their contractual obligations and minimize losses incurred by the Bank.
In
    Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, customers facing COVID-19 related difficulties were offered forbearance in an effort to help our borrowers get to the other side of the health crisis when we believe they will be able to fulfill all of their contractual commitments.
We cease the accrual of interest on all classes of consumer and commercial loans upon the earlier of, becoming 90 days past due, or when doubt exists as to the ultimate collection of principal or interest (classified as nonaccrual or nonperforming loans). When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued interest income is reversed and the loan may only return to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are anticipated to be fully collectible. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables as accrued interest is written off in a timely manner. We are not aging receivables for customers who have been granted a payment deferral in response to COVID-19 which remain in the aging category they were in at the time of payment deferral. We continue to accrue interest on these loans, consistent with our forbearance programs.

Interest income is recognized on nonaccrual loans using a cash basis method. InterestThe interest that would have been accrued on impaired loans was $2 million and less than $1 million during both the three months and twelve months ended March 31,at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had 0 loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments
We estimated expected credit losses over the contractual period in which we are exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by us. The reserve for unfunded commitments is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.

The reserve for unfunded commitments is reflected in other liabilities on the StatementConsolidated Statements of Financial Condition and was $20$25 million as of March 31,September 30, 2020, compared to $3 million as of MarchDecember 31, 2019. The increase in the reserve is reflective of the adoption of CECL which requiresrequired us to record an allowance for our estimate of lifetime losses and an increase due to changes in the economic forecastforecasts used in the ACL models as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The following categories of off-balance sheet credit exposures have been identified: unfunded loans with available balances, new commitments to lend that are not yet funded, and standby and commercial letters of credit. For further information, see Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
    
We may modify certain loans in both our consumer and commercial loan portfolios to retain customers or to maximize collection of the outstanding loan balance. Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs")TDRs are modified loans in which a borrower demonstrates financial difficulties and for which a concession has been granted as a result. Nonperforming TDRs are included in nonaccrual loans. TDRs remain in nonperforming status until a borrower has made payments and is current for at least six consecutive months. Performing TDRs are not considered to be nonaccrual so long as we believe that all contractual principal and interest due under the restructured terms will be collected. Performing and nonperforming TDRs remain impaired as interest and principal will not be received in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. Refer to Note 1- Description of Business, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Standards to the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for a description of the methodology used to determine TDRs.

Some loan modifications classified as TDRs may not ultimately result in the full collection of principal and interest, as modified, but may give rise to potential incremental losses. We measure impairments using a discounted cash flow method for performing TDRs and measure impairment based on collateral values for nonperforming TDRs.

Beginning in March 2020, as a response to COVID-19, we have offered our consumer and commercial customer’scustomers principal and interest payment deferrals and extensions. We considered these programs in the context of whether or not the restructuringshort-term modifications of these contractsloans would constitute a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR).TDR. We considered the CARES Act, interagency guidance and related guidance from the FASB, which provided that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not required to be accounted for as TDRs. As a result, we have determined that these loans are not TDRs.

The following table provides a summary of TDRs by type and performing status:

Impaired Loans

The interest income recognized on impaired loans was less than $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019.

Credit Quality

We utilize an internal risk rating system which is applied to all consumer and commercial loans. Descriptions of our internal risk ratings as they relate to credit quality follow the ratings used by the U.S. bank regulatory agencies as listed below.

Pass. Pass assets are not impaired nor do they have any known deficiencies that could impact the quality of the asset.
Watch. Watch assets are defined as pass rated assets that exhibit elevated risk characteristics or other factors that deserve management’s close attention and increased monitoring. However, the asset does not exhibit a potential or well-defined weakness that would warrant a downgrade to criticized or adverse classification.
Special mention. Assets identified as special mention possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management's close attention. Special mention assets have a potential weakness or pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the assets and increase risk in the future. Special mention assets are criticized, but do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
Substandard. Assets identified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the full collection or liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. For home equity loans and other consumer loans, we evaluate credit quality based on the aging and status of payment activity and any other known credit characteristics that call into question full repayment of the asset. Substandard loans may be placed on either accrual or non-accrual status.
Doubtful. An asset classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and
56


values, highly questionable and improbable. A doubtful asset has a high probability of total or substantial loss, but because of specific pending events that may strengthen the asset, its classification as loss is deferred. Doubtful borrowers are usually in default, lack adequate liquidity or capital, and lack the resources necessary to remain an operating entity. Pending events can


include mergers, acquisitions, liquidations, capital injections, the perfection of liens on additional collateral, the valuation of collateral, and refinancing. Generally, pending events should be resolved within a relatively short period and the ratings will be adjusted based on the new information. Due to the high probability of loss, doubtful assets are placed on non-accrual.
Loss. An asset classified as loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but, rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.
Consumer Loans

Consumer loans consist of open and closed-end loans extended to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures, and includes consumer loans, and loans to individuals secured by their personal residence, including first mortgage, home equity, and home improvement loans. Because consumer loans are usually relatively small-balance, homogeneous exposures, consumer loans are rated BASEDbased primarily on payment performance. Payment performance is a proxy for the strength of repayment capacity and loans are generally classified based on their payment status rather than by an individual review of each loan.
In accordance with regulatory guidance, we assign risk ratings to consumer loans in the following manner:
Consumer loans are classified as Watch once the loan becomes 60 days past due.
Open and closed-end consumer loans 90 days or more past due are classified Substandard.

Payment activity, credit rating and loan-to-value ratios have the most significant impact on the ACL for consumer loans. The following table presents the amortized cost in residential and consumer loans based on payment activity:

Commercial Loans

Risk rating and average loan duration have the most significant impact on the ACL for commercial loans. Additional factors which impact the ACL are debt-service-coverage ratio, loan-to-value ratio, interest-coverage ratio and leverage ratio.

Internal audit conducts periodic examinations which serve as an independent verification of the accuracy of the ratings assigned. All loans are examined on an at least annual basis. Loan grades are based on different factors within the borrowing relationship: entity sales, debt service coverage, debt/total net worth, liquidity, balance sheet and income statement trends, management experience, business stability, financing structure, and financial reporting requirements. The underlying collateral is also rated based on the specific type of collateral and corresponding LTV. The combination of the borrower and collateral risk ratings results in the final rating for the borrowing relationship.

Note 5 - Loans with Government Guarantees
    
Substantially all loans with government guarantees are insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. FHA loans earn interest at a rate based upon the 10-year U.S. Treasury note rate at the time the underlying loan becomes delinquent, which is not paid by the FHA or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs until claimed. When a GNMA loan is due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due) the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet by the MSR owner. These loans are recorded in loans with government guarantees, and the liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition. This resulted in $1.8 billion of repurchase options as of September 30, 2020, a $1.7 billion increase from December 31, 2019. Certain loans within our portfolio may be subject to indemnifications and insurance limits which expose us to limited credit risk. We have reserved for these risks within other assets and as a component of our allowance for loan losses on residential first mortgages.
    
Repossessed assets and the associated claims related to government guaranteed loans are recorded in other assets and totaled $40$22 million and $45 million, at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Note 6 - Variable Interest Entities

We have 0 consolidated VIEs as of March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

In connection with our securitization activities, we have retained a 5 percent interest in the investment securities of certain trusts ("other MBS") and are contracted as the subservicer of the underlying loans, compensated based on market rates, which constitutes a continuing involvement in these trusts. Although we have a variable interest in these securitization trusts, we are not their primary beneficiary due to the relative size of our investment in comparison to the total amount of securities issued by the VIE and our inability to direct activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a result, we have not consolidated the assets and liabilities of the VIE in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Bank’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to our investment in the VIE, as well as the standard representations and warranties made in conjunction with the loan transfer. See Note 2 - Investment Securities and Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements, for additional information.


59


Note 7 - Mortgage Servicing Rights

We have investments in MSRs that result from the sale of loans to the secondary market for which we retain the servicing. We account for MSRs at their fair value. A primary risk associated with MSRs is the potential reduction in fair value as a result of higher than anticipated prepayments due to loan refinancing prompted, in part, by declining interest rates or government intervention. Conversely, these assets generally increase in value in a rising interest rate environment to the extent that prepayments are slower than anticipated. We utilize derivatives as economic hedges to offset changes in the fair value of the MSRs resulting from the actual or anticipated changes in prepayments stemming from changing interest rate environments. There is also a risk of valuation decline due to higher than expected increases in default rates, which we do not believe can be effectively managed using derivatives. For further information regarding the derivative instruments utilized to manage our MSR risks, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments.

Changes in the fair value of residential first mortgage MSRs were as follows:

The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. Changes in fair value based on adverse changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. To isolate the effect of the specified change, the fair value shock analysis is consistent with the identified adverse change, while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, a change in one assumption generally impacts other assumptions, which may either magnify or counteract the effect of the change. For further information on the fair value of MSRs, see Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.

Contractual servicing and subservicing fees. Contractual servicing and subservicing fees, including late fees and other ancillary income are presented below. Contractual servicing fees are included within net return on mortgage servicing rights on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Contractual subservicing fees, including late fees and other ancillary income are included within loan administration income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Subservicing fee income is recorded for fees earned on subserviced loans, net of third party subservicing costs.

Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Our policy is to present itsour derivative assets and derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition on a gross basis, even when provisions allowing for set-off are in place. However, for derivative contracts cleared through certain central clearing parties, variation margin payments are recognized as settlements. We are exposed to non-performance risk by the counterparties to our various derivative financial instruments. A majority of our derivatives are centrally cleared through a Central Counterparty Clearing House or consist of residential mortgage interest rate lock commitments further limiting our exposure to non-performance risk. We believe that the non-performance risk inherent in our remaining derivative contracts is minimal based on credit standards and the collateral provisions of the derivative agreements.

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: We maintain a derivative portfolio of interest rate swaps, futures and forward commitments used to manage exposure to changes in interest rates, MSR asset values and to meet the needs of customers. We also enter into interest rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage LHFS is managed using corresponding forward sale commitments. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
    
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: We have designated certain interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of investment securities available for sale and residential first mortgage loans held for investment using the last-of-layer method. Cash flows and the profit impact associated with designated hedges are reported in the same category as the underlying hedged item.

We have also designated certain interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges on LIBOR based variable interest payments on certain custodial deposits. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and reclassified into interest expense in the same period in which the hedge transaction is recognized in earnings. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $4$10 million (net-of-tax) of


unrealized losses on derivatives classified as cash flow hedges recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).income. We had
61


0 designated cash flow hedges at December 31, 2019. The estimated amount to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings during the next 12 months represents $2$4 million of losses (net-of-tax).

Derivatives that are designated in hedging relationships are assessed for effectiveness using regression analysis at inception and qualitatively thereafter, unless regression analysis is deemed necessary. All designated hedge relationships were and are expected to be highly effective as of March 31,September 30, 2020.

Senior Notes

On July 11, 2016, we issued $250 million of senior notes (“Senior Notes”) which mature on July 15, 2021. Prior to June 15, 2021, we may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100 percent of the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be redeemed or the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 0.50 percent, in addition to accrued and unpaid interest. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we purchased $3 million of the Senior Notes on the open market. This has been accounted for as a debt extinguishment in accordance with applicable GAAP.

Trust Preferred Securities

We sponsor 9 trust subsidiaries, which issued preferred stock to third party investors. We issued junior subordinated debt securities to those trusts, which we have included in long-term debt. The junior subordinated debt securities are the sole assets of those trusts. The trust preferred securities are callable by us at any time. Interest is payable quarterly; however, we

may defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters without default or penalty. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we had 0 deferred interest.

Note 11 - Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share, excluding dilution, is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that could then share in our earnings.

2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

A total of 800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved and authorized for issuance for purchase under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) of which 472,677382,140 remain as of March 31,September 30, 2020. There were 59,25243,946 and 149,789 shares issued under the ESPP during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and the associated compensation expense was de minimis.

Note 13 - Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in interim periods requires us to make a best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year, adjusted for any discrete items for the applicable period. This estimated effective tax rate is then applied to interim consolidated pre-tax operating income to determine the interim provision for income taxes.

We believe that it is unlikely that our unrecognized tax benefits will change by a material amount during the next 12 months. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in provision for income taxes.

Note 14 - Regulatory Matters

Regulatory Capital

We, along with the Bank, must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.



To be categorized as "well-capitalized," the Company and the Bank must maintain minimum tangible capital, Tier 1 capital, common equity Tier 1, and total capital ratios as set forth in the table below. We, along with the Bank, are considered "well-capitalized" at both March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments

Legal Proceedings

We and our subsidiaries are subject to various pending or threatened legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business operations. In addition, the Bank is routinely named in civil actions throughout the country by borrowers and former borrowers relating to the origination,closing, purchase, sale, and servicing of mortgage loans. From time to time, governmental agencies also conduct investigations or examinations of various practices of the Bank. In the course of such investigations or examinations, the Bank cooperates with such agencies and provides information as requested.

We assess the liabilities and loss contingencies in connection with pending or threatened legal and regulatory proceedings on at least a quarterly basis and establish accruals when we believe it is probable that a loss may be incurred and that the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, litigation accruals are adjusted, as appropriate, in light of additional information.



At March 31,September 30, 2020, we do not believe that the amount of any reasonably possible losses in excess of any amounts accrued with respect to ongoing proceedings or any other known claims will be material to our financial statements, or that the ultimate outcome of these actions will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

DOJ Liability

On February 24, 2012, the Bank entered into a Settlement Agreement with the DOJ under which we agreed to make future payments totaling $118 million in annual increments of up to $25 million upon meeting all of the following conditions which are evaluated quarterly and include: (a) the reversal of the DTA valuation allowance, which occurred at the end of 2013; (b) the repayment of the Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C (the "TARP Preferred"), which occurred in
69


July 2016; and (c) the Bank having a Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio of 11 percent or greater as filed in the Call Report with the OCC.

No payment would be required until six months after the Bank files its Call Report with the OCC first reporting that its Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio was 11 percent or greater. If all other conditions were then satisfied, an initial annual payment would be due at that time. The next annual payment is only made if such other conditions continue to be satisfied, otherwise payments are delayed until all such conditions are met. Further, making such a payment must not violate any material banking regulatory requirement, and the OCC must not object in writing.

Consistent with our business and regulatory requirements, Flagstar shall seek in good faith to fulfill the conditions, and will not undertake any conduct or fail to take any action the purpose of which is to frustrate or delay our ability to fulfill any of the above conditions.

Additionally, if the Bank and Bancorp become party to a business combination in which the Bank or Bancorp represent less than 33.3 percent of the resulting company’s assets, annual payments must commence twelve months after the date of that business combination.

The Settlement Agreement meets the definition of a financial instrument for which we elected the fair value option. We consider the assumptions a market participant would make to transfer the liability and evaluate the potential ways we might satisfy the Settlement Agreement and our estimates of the likelihood of these outcomes, which may change over time. The fair value of the liability is subject to significant uncertainty and is impacted by forecasted estimates of the timing of potential payments, some of which are impacted by inputs including estimates of equity, earnings, timing and amount of dividends and growth of the balance sheet and their related impacts on forecasted Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio discount rate, and the likelihood and types of potential business combinations, or any other means by which a payment could be made. For further information on the fair value of the liability, see Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements.
Other litigation accruals

At March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, excluding the fair value liability relating to the DOJ liability,Liability, our total accrual for contingent liabilities and settled litigation was $7 million and $3 million.million, respectively.

Commitments

    In the normal course of business, we have various commitments outstanding which are not included on our consolidated statements of financial position. The following table is a summary of the contractual amount of significant commitments:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is not a violation of any condition established in the contract. SinceBecause many of these commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flow requirements. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. We evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us, upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparties.

These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk beyond the amount recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Our exposure to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We utilize the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for balance sheet instruments. The types of credit we extend are as follows:
70



Mortgage loan commitments including interest-rate locks. We enter into mortgage loan commitments, including interest-rate locks with our customers. These interest-rate lock commitments are considered to be derivative instruments and the fair value of these commitments is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in other assets. For further information, see Note 8 - Derivative Financial Instruments.

Warehouse loan commitments. Lines of credit provided to mortgage originators to fund loans they originate and then sell. The proceeds of the sale of the loans are used to repay the draw on the line used to fund the loans.

Commercial and industrial and other commercial commitments. Conditional commitments issued under various terms to lend funds to businessbusinesses and other entities. These commitments include revolving credit agreements, term loan commitments and short-term borrowing agreements. Many of these loan commitments have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. SinceBecause many of these commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements.

HELOC commitments. Commitments to extend, originate or purchase credit are primarily lines of credit to consumers and have specified rates and maturity dates. Many of these commitments also have adverse change clauses, which allow us to cancel the commitment due to deterioration in the borrowers’ creditworthiness or a decline in the collateral value.

Other consumer commitments. Conditional commitments issued to accommodate the financial needs of customers. The commitments are made under various terms to lend funds to consumers, which include revolving credit agreements, term loan commitments and short-term borrowing agreements.

Standby and commercial letters of credit. Conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party, while commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being drawn on when the underlying transaction is consummated between the customer and the third party. These financial standby letters of credit irrevocably obligate the bank to pay a third party beneficiary when a customer fails to repay an outstanding loan or debt instrument.

We maintain a reserve for the estimate of probable credit losses inherent in unfunded commitments to extend credit. Unfunded commitments to extend credit include unfunded loans with available balances, new commitments to lend that are not yet funded, and standby and commercial letters of credit. See Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Investment for additional information.

Supplemental executive retirement plan with former CEO. The Company entered into a supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) with a former CEO in 2009. Under the plan, the former CEO was to receive a $16 million payment in August 2018. The Company fully accrued for the SERP liability during that time period and no SERP payments have been made to the former CEO. Due to the condition of the Company at the time the former CEO’s employment ended, we believe that any payment under the SERP would be deemed to be a “Golden Parachute” payment and, therefore, is subject to certain banking regulations. As a result, we would need to make an application to the regulators to make a payment and certify to certain criteria. The Company does not believe that it can make such a certification. The former CEO has filed a lawsuit to compel us to make that certification and ultimately pay the liability. Final dispensation of the "SERP" is not within our control and the liability of $16 million at March 31,September 30, 2020 may be adjusted as more information is known.






Note 16 - Fair Value Measurements

We utilize fair value measurements to record or disclose the fair value on certain assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability through an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The determination of fair values of financial instruments often requires the use of estimates. In cases where quoted market values in an active market are not available, we use present value techniques and other valuation methods to estimate the fair values of our financial instruments. These valuation models rely on market-based parameters when available, such as interest rate yield curves or credit spreads. Unobservable inputs may be based on management's judgment, assumptions and estimates related to credit quality, our future earnings, interest rates and other relevant inputs. These valuation methods require considerable judgment and the resulting estimates of fair value can be significantly affected by the assumptions made and methods used.

71


Valuation Hierarchy

U.S. GAAP establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The hierarchy is based on the transparency of the inputs used in the valuation process with the highest priority given to quoted prices available in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs where no active market exists, as discussed below.

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets in which we can participate as of the measurement date;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input within the valuation hierarchy that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

Recurring Significant Unobservable Inputs

Home equity. The most significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the home equity loans are discount rates, constant prepayment rates, and default rates. The constant prepayment and default rates are based on a 12 month historical average. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Increases (decreases) in prepay rates in isolation result in a higher (lower) fair value and increases (decreases) in default rates in isolation result in a lower (higher) fair value.

MSRs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the MSRs are option adjusted spreads, prepayment rates, and cost to service. Significant increases (decreases) in all three assumptions in isolation result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. For March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the weighted average life (in years) for the entire MSR portfolio was 3.33.9 and 4.1, respectively.

DOJ Liability. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the DOJ Liability are the discount rate, asset growth rate, return on assets, dividend rate and the potential ways we might be required to begin making DOJ Liability payments and our estimates of the likelihood of these outcomes, as further discussed in Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments. The DOJ Liability had a fair value adjustment of $25 million during the year ended December 31, 2019. This reduced the liability to $35 million based on changes in the probability of potential ways we might be required to begin making DOJ Liability payments and our estimates of the likelihood of these outcomes. Our assessment of these outcomes reflect a reduced likelihood, and longer timing, for potential future payments.

Rate lock commitments. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the rate lock commitments is the pull through rate. The pull through rate is a statistical analysis of our actual rate lock fallout history to


determine the sensitivity of the residential mortgage loan pipeline compared to interest rate changes and other deterministic
76


values. New market prices are applied based on updated loan characteristics and new fallout ratios (i.e., the inverse of the pull through rate) are applied accordingly. Significant increases (decreases) in the pull through rate in isolation result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Contingent consideration. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value of the contingent consideration is future forecasted target production volumes and forecasted profitability of the division. An increase or decrease to these inputs results in an increase or decrease of the liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
    
We also have assets that are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis under certain conditions. The following table presents assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

Fair Value Option

We elected the fair value option for certain items as discussed throughout the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements to more closely align the accounting method with the underlying economic exposure. Interest income on LHFS is accrued on the principal outstanding primarily using the "simple-interest" method.

The following table reflects the change in fair value included in earnings of financial instruments for which the fair value option has been elected:

Note 17 - Segment Information

Our operations are conducted through 3 operating segments: Community Banking, Mortgage Originations, and
Mortgage Servicing. The Other segment includes the remaining reported activities. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activity from which revenues are earned and expenses are incurred for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by executive management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The operating segments have been determined based on the products and services offered and reflect the manner in which financial information is currently evaluated by management. Each segment operates under the same banking charter, but is reported on a segmented basis for this report. Each of the operating segments is complementary to each other and because of the interrelationships of the segments, the information presented is not indicative of how the segments would perform if they operated as independent entities.

As a result of Management's evaluation of our segments, effective January 1, 2020, certain departments have been re-aligned between the Community Banking and Mortgage Originations. Specifically, a majority of the residential mortgage HFI portfolio is now part of the Mortgage OriginationOriginations segment. The income and expenses relating to these changes are reflected in our financial statements and all prior period segment financial information has been recast to conform to the current presentation.

The Community Banking segment originates loans, provides deposits and fee based services to consumer, business, and mortgage lending customers through its Branch Banking, Business Banking and Commercial Banking, Government Banking and Warehouse Lending and LHFI Portfolio groups.Lending. Products offered through these groups include checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, consumer loans, commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, equipment finance and leasing, home builder finance loans and warehouse lines of credit. Other financial services available include consumer and corporate card services, customized treasury management solutions, merchant services and capital markets services such as loan syndications, and investment and insurance products and services. The interest income on LHFI is recognized in the Community Banking segment, excluding residential first mortgages and newly originated home equity products within the Mortgage Originations segment.

The Mortgage Originations segment originates and acquires one-to-four family residential mortgage loans to sell or hold on our balance sheet. Loans originated-to-sell comprise the majority of the lending activity. These loans are originated through mortgage branches, call centers, the Internet and third party counterparties. The Mortgage OriginationOriginations segment recognizes interest income on loans that are held for sale and the gains from sales associated with these loans, along with the interest income on residential mortgages within LHFI. The interest income on LHFI, excluding residential first mortgages,


and newly originated home equity products and a loss on sales for the purchase of these loans is recognized in the Community Banking segment.within LHFI.
80



The Mortgage Servicing segment services and subservices mortgage and other consumer loans for others on a fee for service basis and may also collect ancillary fees and earn income through the use of noninterest-bearing escrows. Revenue for those serviced and subserviced loans is earned on a contractual fee basis, with the fees varying based on our responsibilities and the status of the underlying loans. The Mortgage Servicing segment also services loans for our LHFI portfolio and our own LHFS portfolio in the Mortgage Originations segment, for which it earns revenue via an intercompany service fee allocation.

The Other segment includes the treasury functions, which include the impact of interest rate risk management, balance sheet funding activities and the administration of the investment securities portfolios, as well as miscellaneous other expenses of a corporate nature. In addition, the Other segment includes revenue and expenses related to treasury and corporate assets and liabilities and equity not directly assigned or allocated to the Community Banking, Mortgage Originations or Mortgage Servicing operating segments.

Revenues are comprised of net interest income (before the provision (benefit) for credit losses) and noninterest income. Noninterest expenses and a majority of provision (benefit) for income taxes, are fully allocated to each operating segment. Provision for credit losses is allocated to segments based on net charge offs and changes in outstanding balances. In contrast, the level of the consolidated provision for credit losses is determined based on an allowance model using the methodologies described in Item 2 – MD&A. The net effect of the credit provision is recorded in the Other segment. Allocation methodologies may be subject to periodic adjustment as the internal management accounting system is revised and the business or product lines within the segments change.

The following tables present financial information by business segment for the periods indicated:

Note 18 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
    
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
    
The following ASUs have been adopted which impact our accounting policies and/or have a financial impact:
Credit Losses - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which alters the current method for recognizing credit losses within the reserve account. The new guidance requires financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected (i.e. net of expected credit losses). The measurement of current expected credit losses should be 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.

Effective January 1, 2020, we have adopted the requirements of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and all related amendments using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, net investments in leases and unfunded commitments. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. We recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $23 million as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326.



The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326:

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is party to legal proceedings incidental to its business. For further information, see Note 15 - Legal Proceedings, Contingencies and Commitments.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We are reviewing and updating our risk factors to contemplate the current pandemic resulting from COVID-19, including the following material changes from the risk factors reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2019:

Adverse Economic Conditions

We are currently in the midst of a health crisis as a result of the pandemic, COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in temporary or permanent closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities. Some states and communities have re-opened and may be at risk of restrictions again in the future. As a result, the demand for our products and services may be significantly negatively impacted. How we respondOur ongoing response to the COVID-19, pandemic, includeincluding standing up new programs specified in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"“CARES Act”), such as the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)PPP, and our long-term effectiveness while working remotely, could have a significant, lasting impact on our operations, financial condition and reputation. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.

The Bank has instituted a work-from-home policy for all staff that are able to work remotely. Working remotely creates new challenges and the pace of change required to address government programs and forbearance increases the risk of internal control failure. In addition, consumers affected by the changed economic and market conditions as a result of a pandemic may continue to demonstrate changed behavior even after the crisis is over, including decreases in discretionary spending on a permanent or long-term basis. WeWhile almost all of our lobbies have limitedre-opened, we have enhanced our bank branches to drive-up servicescleaning protocols, installed plexiglass shields, and closedwe require that our lobbies.employees wear face protection. This change in business could also result in changes in consumer behavior for which we may not be prepared.

The response to the pandemic resulted in a strong contraction in our economy, increased market volatility and uncertainty in our capital markets-mostmarkets, most notably impacting workers and small businesses. The economic health of these businesses may depend upon the fiscal assistance provided by the CARES Act.Act or future acts taken by Congress. The CARES Act is the largest deployment of capital ever authorized by Congress with several provisions designed to ensure banks are able to provide assistance and relief to consumers and businesses. Although government intervention is intended to mitigate economic uncertainties, it isthese programs may not clear that the programs arebe broad or specific enough to mitigate the economic risks-bothrisks of COVID-19, which may lead to adverse results.

Additionally, the CARES Act was passed quickly and regulators rapidly issued clarifying guidance and operationalized certain programs, such as the PPP. As a result, there is risk that there are subsequent interpretations of guidance or aggressive assertions of wrongdoing in regards to laws, regulations or applications of guidance which could cause an adverse impact to our financial results or our internal controls. We also face an increased risk of client disputes, litigation and governmental and regulatory scrutiny as a result of the effects of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions.

The adverse economic conditions will have an impact on our customers. Many of these customers willhave and may continue to experience unemployment and a loss of revenue, leading to a lack of cash flows. TheseAs a result of these lower cash flows, could have our customers are drawing on the lines of credit we have extended to them and withdrawing their deposits from the Bank. Both of these actions wouldcould have an adverse impact on our liquidity position. Additionally, the ability of our borrowers to make payments timely on outstanding loans, the value of collateral securing those loans, and demand for loans and other products and services that we offer have and may continue to be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.COVID-19. Until the effects of the pandemic subside, we expect continued draws on lines of credit, reduced revenues in our businesses, and increased loan defaults and losses.

Even after the pandemic subsides, the U.S. economy may continue to experience a recession, and we anticipate our business would be materially and adversely affected by a prolonged recession in the U.S.



Interest Rates

In response to COVID-19, the Federal Reserve reduced the Federal Funds Rate to zero percent in March 2020. The outlook for the remainder of 2020 is uncertain, and there is a possibility that the Federal Reserve keeps interest rates low or even uses negative interest rates if economic conditions warrant. Although many of our commercial loans have floors, approximately half of our revenue is tied to interest rates, and an extended period of operations in a zero- or negative-rate environment could negatively impact profitability.

In addition, the Federal Reserve has initiated new quantitative easing programs, buying securities at various points in time, which resultsresulting in disruptions to the MBSmortgage-backed securities market. There is a risk that the Federal Reserve may take otheradditional actions in the future or elect to stop their current actions which could disrupt the market and have an adverse impact on our mortgage gain on sale or other financial results. Further, the impact of these actions has caused the financial instruments we use to manage our interest rate and market risks to be less effective at times, which, in turn, could have a material, adverse impact on our operations and financial condition.

There has also been disruption in the market for mortgage backed securities resulting from overall low level of rates across the yield curve, the high level of volatility of interest rates, and the financial weakness of some traditional buyers of mortgage servicing rights. This has caused uncertainty with respect to our ability to sell mortgage servicing rights. At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $223$323 million of mortgage servicing rights which equated to 13.616.0 percent of common equity tier one capital. Should the level of mortgage servicing rights exceed 25 percent of common equity tier one capital, we are required to deduct the excess in determining our regulatory capital levels. If we have the inability to sell mortgage servicing rights on a timely basis, there could be negative impacts to our regulatory capital or an impact on our pricing for mortgage loans which could negatively impact our mortgage origination business and our financial condition.

Customer and Lending Relief Actions

As a result of recent federal legislation, we are required to provide mortgage forbearances to individuals with single-family, federally backed mortgages, such as those that we service which underlie our mortgage servicing rights, due to COVID-19 related difficulties. In addition, we are waiving allwaived fees for an extended time period as customers deal with the crisis.crisis, which we may continue to do in the future. This could result in a reduction in servicing fee income and a higher cost to service as customers do not pay their mortgages and we cover their payments for a temporary time period until the investors make us whole. Additionally, MSR transactions customarily contain early payment default provisions. If a customer requests forbearance on the residential mortgage loans underlying the MSRs we have sold, generally within 90 days following the sale, we may be contractually obligated to refund the purchase price of the MSR or pay a fee to the purchaser. Furthermore, we have provided forbearance to certain of our commercial customers. The result of these actions could result in financial, operational, credit and compliance risk as we navigate government requirements and our ability to modify our systems to account for these changes while maintaining an adequate internal control structure.

Our application of forbearance, any loan payment deferrals that we grant, the servicing advances we are required to make and any escrow advances we are required to make while a loan is in forbearance could result in us carrying significant asset balances. This could result in a reduction in our liquidity and cause a reduction in our capital ratios. We are unsure, at this time, what, if any, additional liquidity facilities might be provided by the federal government. The combination of these impacts along with other impacts, could cause us to not have sufficient liquidity or capital.

We also have a concentration of customers in the mortgage finance business. We make warehouse and MSR loans to these customers, and often originate through them in the correspondent channel of our mortgage originations business. The implications of federally mandated forbearance is expected to have a detrimental impact on the liquidity position of these companies that may have already been experiencing financial stress. It is not clear what, if any, programs will be available to these customers to provide liquidity. As a consequence, some of these companies could fail. A failure of one of our customers could be a loss of mortgage originationclosing volume and could also lead to credit losses, should the collateral underlying their loans prove insufficient to repay the amount of the loan outstanding.

Furthermore, we are not aging receivables for customers who have been granted a payment holiday, payment deferral or forbearance. Therefore, there is a risk that subsequently, customers may still be unable to make their payments, resulting in delinquencies at a higher rate than what is typical and a higher percentage of loans in nonaccrual status. Additionally, for consumer loans, current payments typically provide the primary evidence of a borrower’s ability and intent to repay the loan. Therefore, during the forbearance, deferral or payment holiday period, we may not be able to discern which loans can be repaid and which require timely action to manage the potential for loss to a lower level. Consequently, when a borrower is unable to repay the loan, our losses could be higher than we have experienced in the past. In addition, newly originated or acquired


mortgage loans could potentially request forbearance prior to us selling the loan, resulting in a higher carrying cost for us as we may not be able to sell them into the market at all or at prices we would accept.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Our ACL, which reflects our estimate of lifetime losses inherent in the LHFIloans held-for-investment portfolio and our reserve for unfunded commitment, may not be sufficient to cover actual credit losses. We have loan exposures to industries that have been impacted more severely by COVID-19 including:

 As of March 31, 2020
 Loan Exposure
 (Dollars in millions)
Automotive$161
Leisure & Entertainment$119
Healthcare$48
Retail$302

Retail$300

Leisure & Entertainment$131

Healthcare$40 

Our ACL calculations include a forecast for a reasonable and supportable time period. AsWe utilized the Moody’s September scenarios in our forecast: a growth forecast, weighted at 30 percent; a baseline forecast, weighted at 40 percent; and an adverse forecast, weighted at 30 percent. The resulting composite forecast for the third quarter 2020 was roughly equivalent to the scenario we used in the second quarter of March 31, 2020 that forecast assumed a Q2 20202020. Unemployment ends the year at 10 percent and recovers only slightly in 2021. GDP decrease of 18 percent, HPI decreasing 3 percentrecovers only slightly by the end of the year from current levels and unemployment, adjusted for government stimulus, of 8 percent. Subsequentdoes not return to March 31, 2020 leading economic indicators demonstrate a worsening innear pre-COVID levels until 2024. HPI drops about 2 percent from mid-2020 through 2021. Changing economic conditions which could cause a material difference in future forecasts used in our calculations.calculations. If actual results differ materially from the forecast used in our calculations, our credit loss provision may increase and our ACL may not be sufficient to cover losses sustained, particularly for the impacted industries. The current pandemic has resulted in the environment changing rapidly which increases the risk of inaccurate forecasts because they depend upon significant judgments and estimates, which can be even more challenging in an environment of uncertainty.The calculation for ACL is complex and the associated risk could impact our results of operations and may place stress on our internal controls over financial reporting.

Cybersecurity Risk

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the Bank instituting a work-from-home policy for all staff that are able to work remotely. This exposes us to increased cybersecurity risk. Increased levels of remote access may create additional opportunities for cyber criminals to exploit vulnerabilities. We have observed an increase in attempted malicious activity from third parties directed at the Bank and employees may be more susceptible to phishing and social engineering attempts due to increased stress caused by the crisis and from balancing family and work responsibilities at home, such as attempts to obtain personally identifiable information. Cybercriminals may be opportunistic about fears about COVID-19 and the higher number of people accessing the network remotely, by including malware in emails that appear to include documents providing legitimate information for protecting oneself from COVID-19. The Bank may also be exposed to this risk if the operations of any of its vendors that provide critical services to the Bank are adversely impacted by cyberattacks. Furthermore, with the increased use of virtual private network (“VPN”) servers, there is a risk of security misconfiguration in VPNs resulting in exposing sensitive information to the internet. A significant and sustained malware or other cybersecurity attack targeted at the Bank or any of its vendors that provide critical services to the Bank could have a material adverse impact on our ability to conduct our overall operations and on our financial condition.

Loss or Extended Absence of Key Personnel

We are and will continue to be dependent upon our management team and other key personnel. Losing the services of one or more key members of our management team or other key personnel could adversely affect our operations. In addition, COVID-19 increases the risk that certain senior executive officers or a member of the board of directors could become ill, causing them to be incapacitated or otherwise unable to perform their duties for an extended absence. Furthermore, because of the nature of the disease, multiple people working in close proximity could also become ill simultaneously which could result in the same department having extended absences. This could negatively impact the efficiency and effectiveness of processes and internal controls throughout the Bank.
