The ASU specifies eligible hedging instruments in a single-layer hedge and provides additional guidance on accounting for and disclosure of hedge basis adjustments that are applicable to the Disclosure Requirementsportfolio layer method. Further, hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for Defined Benefit Plans.” This ASU amends and modifiesassets included in the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement plans.closed portfolio. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that no longerASU are considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures,effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. As ASU No. 2018-14 only revises disclosure requirements,interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating; however, the adoption didis not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2019,March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 740)326): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” The ASU No. 2019-12 removes specific exceptions to the general principles in FASB ASC Topic 740. It eliminates the needtroubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) accounting model that was adopted with Topic 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” and enhances disclosure requirements for an organizationcertain loan refinancings and restructurings when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The ASU requires prospective disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and the Company can elect to analyze whetheradopt the following apply in a given period: (1) exceptionamendments about TDRs and related disclosure enhancements separately from the amendments related to vintage disclosures. The Company is still evaluating; however, the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation; (2) exceptionsadoption is not expected to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and (3) exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. ASU 2019-12 also improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplifies: (1) franchise taxes that are partially based on income; (2) transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; (3) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and (4) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The adoption of ASU No. 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions Between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”. ASU No. 2020-01 clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. The amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. In addition, this ASU provides direction that a company should not consider whether the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or the fair value option when it is determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options, upon either settlement or exercise. The amendments are to be applied prospectively. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-01 did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” ASU No. 2021-01 clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. ASU No. 2021-01 also amends the expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 to capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and to tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition. ASU No. 2021-01 was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2021-01 did not significantly impact the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Future Application of Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” ASU No. 2020-04 provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as SOFR. For instance, entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can also elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. Finally, entities can make a one-time election to sell and/or reclassify held-to-maturity debt securities that reference an interest rate affected by reference rate reform. It is anticipated that this ASU will simplify any modifications that are executed between the selected start date (yet to be determined) and December 31, 2022 that are directly related to LIBOR transition by allowing prospective recognition of the continuation of the contract, rather than extinguishment of the old contract resulting in writing off unamortized fees/costs. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Credit Quality Information
The Company monitors the credit quality of held to maturity securities through credit ratings from various rating agencies. Credit ratings express opinions about the credit quality of a security and are utilized by the Company to make informed decisions. Investment grade securities are rated BBB-/Baa3 or higher and generally considered by the rating agencies and market participants to be of low credit risk. Conversely, securities rated below investment grade are considered to have distinctively higher credit risk than investment grade securities. For securities without credit ratings, the Company utilizes other financial information indicating the financial health of the underlying municipality, agency, or organization.
As of September 30, 2021,2022, none of the Company's investment securities were delinquent or in non-accrual status.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:
Construction - Loans in this segment primarily include real estate development loans for which payment is derived from sale of the property or long term financing at completion. Credit risk is affected by cost overruns, time to sell at an adequate price, and market conditions.
Commercial real estate multifamily, owner occupied and non-owner - Loans in these segments are primarily owner-occupied or income-producing properties throughout New England and Northeastern New York. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties are adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management monitors the cash flows of these loans.
Commercial and industrial loans - Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business such as accounts receivable, inventory, marketable securities, other liquid collateral, equipment and other business assets. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. Loans in this segment include asset based loans which generally have no scheduled repayment and which are closely monitored against formula based collateral advance ratios. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
Residential real estate - All loans in this segment are collateralized by residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
Home equity and other consumer loans - Loans in this segment are primarily home equity lines of credit, automobile loans and other consumer loans. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans
The Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans (“ACLL”) is comprised of the allowance for loan losses, and the allowance for unfunded commitments is accounted for as a separate liability in other liabilities on the balance sheet. The level of the ACLL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the loans at the balance sheet date. The Company uses a static pool migration analysis method, applying expected historical loss trend and observed economic metrics. The level of the ACLL is based on management’s ongoing review of all relevant information, from internal and external sources, relating to past and current events, utilizing a 7 quarter reasonable and supportable forecast period with a 1 year reversion period. The ACLL reserve is overlaid with qualitative factors based upon:
•the existence and growth of concentrations of credit;
•the volume and severity of past due financial assets, including nonaccrual assets;
•the institutions lending and credit review as well as the experience and ability of relevant management and staff and;
•the effect of other external factors such as regulatory, competition, regional market conditions, legal and technological environment and other events such as natural disasters;
•the effect of other economic factors such as economic stimulus and customer forbearance programs.
The allowance for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level by the Company to be sufficient to absorb expected lifetime losses related to unfunded credit facilities (including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit). and is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Credit Quality Information
The Company monitors the credit quality of its portfolio by using internal risk ratings that are based on regulatory guidance. Loans that are given a Pass rating are not considered a problem credit. Loans that are classified as Special Mention loans are considered to have potential weaknesses and are evaluated closely by management. Substandard, including non-accruing loans, are loans for which a definitive weakness has been identified and which may make full collection of contractual cash flows questionable. Doubtful loans are those with identified weaknesses that make full collection of contractual cash flows, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
For commercial credits, the Company assigns an internal risk rating at origination and reviews the rating annual, semiannually, or quarterly depending on the risk rating. The rating is also reassessed at any point in time when management becomes aware of information that may affect the borrower’s ability to fulfill their obligations.
The Company risk rates its residential mortgages, including 1-4 family and residential construction loans, based on a three rating system: Pass, Special Mention, and Substandard. Loans that are current within 59 days are rated Pass. Residential mortgages that are 60-89 days delinquent are rated Special Mention. Loans delinquent for 90 days or greater are rated Substandard and generally placed on non-accrual status.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A financial asset is considered collateral-dependent when the debtor is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale or operation of the collateral. Expected credit losses for collateral-dependent loans are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. Significant quarter over quarter changes are reflective of changes in nonaccrual status and not necessarily associated with credit quality indicators like appraisal value. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of individually analyzed collateral-dependent loans by loan portfolio segment:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Troubled Debt Restructuring Loans
The Company’s loan portfolio also includes certain loans that have been modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring ("TDR"), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months. TDRs are evaluated individually for impairment and may result in a specific allowance amount allocated to an individual loan.
The following table presents activity in TDRs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20212022 and September 30, 2020:2021:

NOTE 9.7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As of September 30, 2021,2022, the Company held derivatives with a total notional amount of $3.7$4.0 billion. That amount included $0.4 billion in interest rate swap derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. The Company also had economic hedges totaling $3.7$3.6 billion and $17.7$3.1 million non-hedging derivatives, which are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes with changes in fair value recorded directly through earnings. Economic hedges included interest rate swaps totaling $3.4$3.3 billion, risk participation agreements with dealer banks of $0.4$0.3 billion, and $4.8$1.0 million in forward commitment contracts.
As part of the Company’s risk management strategy, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Interest rate swap agreements involve the risk of dealing with both Bank customers and institutional derivative counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. The agreements are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards and contain master netting and collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The derivatives program is overseen by the Risk Management and Capital Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Based on adherence to the Company’s credit standards and the presence of the netting and collateral provisions, the Company believes that the credit risk inherent in these contracts was not significant at September 30, 2021.2022.
The Company pledged collateral to derivative counterparties in the form of cash totaling $56.9$14.9 million and securities with an amortized cost of $35.4$22.5 million and a fair value of $35.6$22.3 million as of September 30, 2021.2022. The Company does not typically require its commercial customers to post cash or securities as collateral on its program of back-to-back economic hedges. However certain language is written into the International Swaps Dealers Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) and loan documents where, in default situations, the Bank is allowed to access collateral supporting the loan relationship to recover any losses suffered on the derivative asset or liability. The Company may need to post additional collateral in the future in proportion to potential increases in unrealized loss positions.

Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of unrealized changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges is reported in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction is forecasted to affect earnings. Each quarter, the Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.
The Company has entered into three interest rate swap contracts and three forward-starting interest rate swap contracts with a combined notional value of $400.0 million as of September 30, 2022. The three forward starting swaps will become effective in 2022. These interest rate swaps have durations of two to three years. This hedge strategy converts commercial variable rate loans to fixed interest rates, thereby protecting the Company from floating interest rate variability. Amounts included in the Consolidated Statements of Income and in the other comprehensive income section of the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (related to interest rate derivatives designated as hedges of cash flows), were as follows:

Economic hedges
As of September 30, 2021,2022, the Company has an interest rate swap with a $8.1$7.3 million notional amount to swap out the fixed rate of interest on an economic development bond bearing a fixed rate of 5.09%, currently within the Company’s trading portfolio under the fair value option, in exchange for a LIBOR-based floating rate. The intent of the economic hedge is to improve the Company’s asset sensitivity to changing interest rates in anticipation of favorable average floating rates of interest over the 21-year life of the bond. The fair value changes of the economic development bond are mostly offset by fair value changes of the related interest rate swap.
The Company also offers certain derivative products directly to qualified commercial borrowers. The Company economically hedges derivative transactions executed with commercial borrowers by entering into mirror-image, offsetting derivatives with third-party financial institutions. The transaction allows the Company’s customer to convert a variable-rate loan to a fixed rate loan. Because the Company acts as an intermediary for its customer, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts mostly offset each other in earnings. CreditThere was no credit valuation loss adjustmentsadjustment arising from the difference in credit worthiness of the commercial loan and financial institution counterparties totaled $2.4 million as of September 30, 2021.2022. The interest income and expense on these mirror image swaps exactly offset each other.
The Company has risk participation agreements with dealer banks. Risk participation agreements occur when the Company participates on a loan and a swap where another bank is the lead. The Company gets paid a fee to take on the risk associated with having to make the lead bank whole on Berkshire’s portion of the pro-rated swap should the borrower default. Changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings.
The Company utilizes forward sale commitments to hedge interest rate risk and the associated effects on the fair value of interest rate lock commitments and loans originated for sale. The forward sale commitments are accounted for as derivatives with changes in fair value recorded in current period earnings.
The Company uses the following types of forward sale commitments contracts:
•Best efforts loan sales,
•Mandatory delivery loan sales, and
•To Be Announced (“TBA”) mortgage-backed securities sales.
A best efforts contract refers to a loan sale agreement where the Company commits to deliver an individual mortgage loan of a specified principal amount and quality to an investor if the loan to the underlying borrower closes. The Company may enter into a best efforts contract once the price is known, which is shortly after the potential borrower’s interest rate is locked.
A mandatory delivery contract is a loan sale agreement where the Company commits to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price on or before a specified date. Generally, the Company may enter into mandatory delivery contracts shortly after the loan closes with a customer.
The Company may sell TBA mortgage-backed securities to hedge the changes in fair value of interest rate lock commitments and held for sale loans, which do not have corresponding best efforts or mandatory delivery contracts. These security sales transactions are closed once mandatory contracts are written. On the closing date the price of the security is locked-in, and the sale is paired-off with a purchase of the same security. Settlement of the security purchase/sale transaction is done with cash on a net-basis.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Non-hedging derivatives
The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”), or commitments to lend, for residential mortgage loans, which commit the Company to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specific interest rate and within a specified period of time. IRLCs that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be held for sale are considered derivative financial instruments under applicable accounting guidance. Outstanding IRLCs expose the Company to the risk that the price of the mortgage loans underlying the commitments may decline due to increases in mortgage interest rates from inception of the rate lock to the funding of the loan. The IRLCs are free-standing derivatives which are carried at fair value with changes recorded in non-interest income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the fair value of IRLCs subsequent to inception are based on changes in the fair value of the underlying loan resulting from the fulfillment of the commitment and changes in the probability that the loan will fund within the terms of the commitment, which is affected primarily by changes in interest rates and the passage of time.
Amounts included in the Consolidated Statements of Income related to economic hedges and non-hedging derivatives were as follows:

Assets and Liabilities Subject to Enforceable Master Netting Arrangements
Interest Rate Swap Agreements (“Swap Agreements”)
The Company enters into swap agreements to facilitate the risk management strategies for commercial banking customers. The Company mitigates this risk by entering into equal and offsetting swap agreements with highly rated third party financial institutions. The swap agreements are free-standing derivatives and are recorded at fair value in the Company’s consolidated statements of condition. The Company is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparties; however, the Company does not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. The master netting arrangements provide for a single net settlement of all swap agreements, as well as collateral, in the event of default on, or termination of, any one contract. Collateral generally in the form of marketable securities is received or posted by the counterparty with net liability positions, respectively, in accordance with contract thresholds.
The Company had net asset positions with its financial institution counterparties totaling $1.8$52.8 million and $1.0$2.2 million as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The Company had net asset positions with its commercial banking counterparties totaling $95.6 million$98.0 thousand and $159.0$76.8 million as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The Company had net liability positions with its financial institution counterparties totaling $40.8 million$190.0 thousand and $66.8$33.3 million as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The Company had net liability positions with its commercial banking counterparties totaling $1.1$95.9 million and $2.5 million as of September 30, 2021. The Company had no net liability positions with its commercial banking counterparties as of2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. The Company has collateral pledged to cover this liability.

NOTE 11.9. OTHER COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, OFF-BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITIES, AND PANDEMIC IMPACT
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was reported to have surfaced in China and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") a global pandemic and the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is fluid and continues to evolve, which is adversely affecting some of the Company’s clients. The COVID-19 pandemic and its associated impacts on trade (including supply chains and export levels), travel, employee productivity, unemployment, consumer spending, and other economic activities has resulted in less economic activity, lower equity market valuations and significant volatility and disruption in financial markets and has had an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The ultimate extent of thecontinuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations is currently uncertain and will depend on various developments and other factors, including, among others, the duration and scope of the pandemic, as well as governmental, regulatory and private sector responses to the pandemic, and the associated impacts on the economy, financial markets, and our clients, employees, and vendors.
The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations generally rely upon the ability of the Company’s borrowers to repay their loans, the value of collateral underlying the Company’s secured loans, and demand for loans and other products and services the Company offers, which are highly dependent on the business environment in the Company’s primary markets where it operates and in the United States as a whole.
At this time, it is difficult to quantify the impact COVID-19 will continue to have on the Company during the current year. These circumstances could cause the Company to experience a material adverse effect on our business operations, asset valuations, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Material adverse impacts may include all or a combination of valuation impairments on the Company’s intangible assets, investments, loans, loan servicing rights, deferred tax assets, lease right-of-use assets, or counter-party risk derivatives.
Beginning in March 2020, the Company has offered three-month payment deferrals for customers with a current payment status who were negatively impacted by economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As of September 30, 2021,2022, the Company had 242 active modified loans outstanding with a carrying value of $65$12.5 million. As of December 31, 2020,2021, the Company had 74619 active modified loans outstanding with a carrying value of $316$14.4 million, which excluded loans returning to payment or awaiting evaluation for further deferral. The Company continues to accrue interest on these loans during the deferral period. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in March 2020 and Section 4013 (Temporary Relief from Troubled Debt Restructurings) of the CARES Act, these short-term deferrals are not considered troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) unless the borrower was previously experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the risk-ratings on COVID-19 modified loans did not automatically change as a result of payment deferrals, and these loans will not be considered past due until after the deferral period is over and scheduled payments resume. Section 4013 (Temporary Relief from Troubled Debt Restructurings) of the CARES Act expired on December 31, 2021.

The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. At each date shown, the Company met the minimum capital requirements and the Bank met the conditions to be classified as “well capitalized” under the relevant regulatory framework. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table above.
Effective January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank became subject to the Basel III rule that requires the Company and the Bank to assess their Common equity Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets. The Bank's Common equity Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets exceeds the minimum to be well capitalized. In addition, the final capital rules added a requirement to maintain a minimum conservation buffer, composed of Common equity Tier 1 capital, of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, to be phased in over three years and applied to the Common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and the Total risk-based capital ratio. As of January 1, 2019, banking organizations must maintain a minimum Common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%, a minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and a minimum Total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%. The final, including a 2.5% capital conservation buffer. Capital rules impose restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary cash bonus payments if the minimum capital conservation buffer is not met.
At September 30, 2021,2022, the capital levels of both the Company and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and the Bank's regulatory capital ratios were above the minimum levels required to be considered well capitalized for regulatory purposes. The capital levels of both the Company and the Bank at September 30, 20212022 also exceeded the minimum capital requirements including the currently applicable capital conservation buffer of 2.5%.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Trading Security at Fair Value. The Company holds 1one security designated as a trading security. It is a tax-advantaged economic development bond issued to the Company by a local nonprofit which provides wellness and health programs. The fair value of this security is determined based on a discounted cash flow methodology. Certain inputs to the fair value calculation are unobservable and there is little to no market activity in the security; therefore, the security meets the definition of a Level 3 security. The discount rate used in the valuation of the security is sensitive to movements in the 3-month LIBOR rate.
Securities Available for Sale and Marketable Equity Securities. Marketable equity securities classified as Level 1 consist of publicly-traded equity securities for which the fair values can be obtained through quoted market prices in active exchange markets. Marketable equity securities classified as Level 2 consist of securities with infrequent trades in active exchange markets, and pricing is primarily sourced from third party pricing services. AFS securities classified as Level 2 include most of the Company’s debt securities. The pricing on Level 2 and Level 3 was primarily sourced from third party pricing services, overseen by management, and is based on models that consider standard input factors such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and condition, among other things. Level 3 pricing includes inputs unobservable to market participants.
Loans Held for Investment. The Company’s held for investment loan portfolio includes loans originated by Company and loans acquired through business combinations. The Company intends to hold these assets until maturity as a part of its business operations. For one acquired portfolio subset, the Company previously accounted for these purchased-credit impaired loans as a pool under ASC 310, as they were determined to have common risk characteristics. These loans were recorded at fair value on acquisition date and subsequently evaluated for impairment collectively. Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Company elected the fair value option on this portfolio, recognizing an $11.2 million fair value write-down charged to Retained Earnings,retained earnings, net of deferred tax impact, as of January 1, 2020. The fair value of this loan portfolio is determined based on a discounted cash flow methodology. Certain inputs to the fair value calculation are unobservable; therefore, the loans meet the definition of Level 3 assets. The discount rate used in the valuation is consistent with assets that have significant credit deterioration. The cash flow assumptions include payment schedules for loans with current payment histories and estimated collateral value for delinquent loans. All of these loans were nonperforming as of September 30, 2021.2022.

Loans Held for Sale. The Company elected the fair value option for all loans held for sale (HFS) originated for sale on or after May 1, 2012. Loans HFS are classified as Level 2 as the fair value is based on input factors such as quoted prices for similar loans in active markets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The changes in fair value of loans held for sale for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were losses of $12 thousand and $173 thousand, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, originations of loans held for sale totaled $6.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, sales of loans originated for sale totaled $6.5 million and $21.6 million, respectively.
The changes in fair value of loans held for sale for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were gains of $17 thousand and losses of $217 thousand, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, originations of loans held for sale totaled $24.0 million and $84.4 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, sales of loans originated for sale totaled $22.5 million and $90.8 million, respectively.
The changes in fair value of loans held for sale for the three months ended September 30, 2020, were losses of $6 thousand from continuing operations and gains of $0.9 million from discontinued operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, originations of loans held for sale from continuing operations totaled $70.6 million and sales of loans originated for sale from continuing operations totaled $74.1 million.
Interest Rate Swaps. The valuation of the Company’s interest rate swaps is obtained from a third-party pricing service and is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The pricing analysis is based on observable inputs for the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity and interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2021,2022, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Commitments to Lend. The Company enters into commitments to lend for residential mortgage loans intended for sale, which commit the Company to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specific interest rate and within a specified period of time. The estimated fair value of commitments to originate residential mortgage loans for sale is based on quoted prices for similar loans in active markets. However, this value is adjusted by a factor which considers the likelihood that the loan in a lock position will ultimately close, and by the non-refundable costs of originating the loan. The closing ratio is derived from the Bank’s internal data and is adjusted using significant management judgment. The costs to originate are primarily based on the Company’s internal commission rates that are not observable. As such, these commitments are classified as Level 3 measurements.
Forward Sale Commitments. The Company utilizes forward sale commitments as economic hedges against potential changes in the values of the commitments to lend and loans originated for sale. To Be Announced (“TBA”) mortgage-backed securities forward commitment sales are used as the hedging instrument, are classified as Level 1, and consist of publicly-traded debt securities for which identical fair values can be obtained through quoted market prices in active exchange markets. The fair values of the Company’s best efforts and mandatory delivery loan sale commitments are determined similarly to the commitments to lend using quoted prices in the market place that are observable. However, costs to originate and closing ratios included in the calculation are internally generated and are based on management’s judgment and prior experience, which are considered factors that are not observable. As such, best efforts and mandatory forward commitments are classified as Level 3 measurements.
Capitalized Servicing Rights. The Company accounts for certain capitalized servicing rights at fair value in its Consolidated Financial Statements, as the Company is permitted to elect the fair value option for each specific instrument. A loan servicing right asset represents the amount by which the present value of the estimated future net cash flows to be received from servicing loans exceed adequate compensation for performing the servicing. The fair value of servicing rights is estimated using a present value cash flow model. The most important assumptions used in the valuation model are the anticipated rate of the loan prepayments and discount rates. Although some
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
assumptions in determining fair value are based on standards used by market participants, some are based on unobservable inputs and therefore are classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Individually evaluated loans. Loans are generally not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Periodically, the Company records non-recurring adjustments to the carrying value of loans based on fair value measurements for partial charge-offs of the uncollectible portions of those loans. Non-recurring adjustments can also include certain impairment amounts for collateral-dependent loans calculated when establishing the allowance for credit losses. Such amounts are generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan and, as a result, the carrying value of the loan less the calculated valuation amount does not necessarily represent the fair value of the loan. Real estate collateral is typically valued using appraisals or other indications of value based on recent comparable sales of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace. However, the choice of observable data is subject to significant judgment, and there are often adjustments based on judgment in order to make observable data comparable and to consider the impact of time, the condition of properties, interest rates, and other market factors on current values. Additionally, commercial real estate appraisals frequently involve discounting of projected cash flows, which relies inherently on unobservable data. Therefore, nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments that relate to real estate collateral have generally been classified as Level 3. Estimates of fair value for other collateral that supports commercial loans are generally based on assumptions not observable in the marketplace and therefore such valuations have been classified as Level 3.
Loans Transferred to Held for Sale. Once a decision has been made to sell loans not previously classified as held for sale, these loans are transferred into the held for sale category and carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Real estate collateral is typically valued using appraisals or other indications of value based on recent comparable sales of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace. The choice of observable data is subject to significant judgment, and there are often adjustments based on judgment in order to make observable data comparable and to consider the impact of time, the condition of properties, interest rates, and other market factors on current values. Nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments that relate to real estate collateral have generally been classified as Level 3. Estimates of fair value for other collateral that supports commercial loans are generally based on assumptions not observable in the marketplace and therefore such valuations have been classified as Level 3.
Capitalized loan servicing rights. A loan servicing right asset represents the amount by which the present value of the estimated future net cash flows to be received from servicing loans exceed adequate compensation for performing the servicing. The fair value of servicing rights is estimated using a present value cash flow model. The most important assumptions used in the valuation model are the anticipated rate of the loan prepayments and discount rates. Adjustments are only recorded when the discounted cash flows derived from the valuation model are less than the carrying value of the asset. Although some assumptions in determining fair value are based on standards used by market participants, some are based on unobservable inputs and therefore are classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide the reader with additional supplemental perspectives on operating results, performance trends, and financial condition. Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial information. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures is provided below. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders. An item which management excludes when computing non-GAAP adjusted earnings can be of substantial importance to the Company’s results for any particular quarter or year. The Company’s non-GAAP adjusted earnings information set forth is not necessarily comparable to non- GAAP information which may be presented by other companies. Each non-GAAP measure used by the Company in this report as supplemental financial data should be considered in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial information.
The Company utilizes the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings in evaluating operating trends, including components for operating revenue and expense. These measures exclude amounts which the Company views as unrelated to its normalized operations. These items primarily include securities gains/losses, merger costs, restructuring costs, goodwill impairment, and discontinued operations. Discontinued operations are the Company’s national mortgage banking operations for which the Company completed the final wind-down of the operations during the fourth quarter of 2020. Merger costs consist primarily of severance/benefit related expenses, contract termination costs, systems conversion costs, variable compensation expenses, and professional fees. Restructuring costs generally consist of costs and losses associated with the disposition of assets and liabilities and lease terminations, including costs related to branch sales. Restructuring costs also include severance and consulting expenses related to the Company’s strategic review. For 2021, the net gains on sale of business operations and assets was related to the sale of the insurance subsidiary and the Mid-Atlantic branch operations.
The Company also calculates adjusted earnings per share based on its measure of adjusted earnings and diluted common shares. The Company views these amounts as important to understanding its operating trends, particularly due to the impact of accounting standards related to merger and acquisition activity. Analysts also rely on these measures in estimating and evaluating the Company’s performance. Expense adjustments in 2022 and 2021 were primarily related to branch consolidations. Net losses on securities in 2022 were primarily due to unrealized equity securities losses due to changes in market conditions.
Management believes that the computation of non-GAAP adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share may facilitate the comparison of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry. The Company also adjusts certain equity related measures to exclude intangible assets due to the importance of these measures to the investment community.
In 2021, the Company recorded a third quarter net gain of $52 million on the sale of the operations of the insurance subsidiary and the Mid-Atlantic branch operations. Expense adjustments in the first quarter 2021 were primarily related to branch consolidations. Third quarter 2021 adjustments included Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings prepayment costs. They also included other restructuring charges for efficiency initiatives in operations areas including write-downs on real estate moved to held for sale and severance related to staff reductions. The fourth quarter 2021 revenue adjustment was primarily related to trailing revenue on a previously reported sale, and the expense adjustment was due primarily to branch restructuring costs. Net losses on securities in both years were primarily due to unrealized equity securities losses due to changes in market conditions. The adjustment to expense in 2022 is primarily related to the consolidation of branches in 2022, along with the disposition of other unused premises and costs related to the change in business operations in the Firestone business line.

SUMMARY
Berkshire’s quarterly revenue and operating earnings advanced in 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting growth and profitability under its BEST strategic plan which was initiated near midyear 2021. Results have also benefited from a strong credit environment and from market interest rate increases which began after the start of 2022. The Company’s interest rate risk profile is positioned to benefit earnings from further interest rate increases expected by the markets through the rest of the year.
The BEST plan targeted getting better before getting bigger, and this was a primary focus in the second half of 2021 as various expense and profitability initiatives were undertaken and less strategic operations were ended, including the sale of Mid-Atlantic branch operations and insurance operations in the third quarter of 2021. The refocus on core markets and operations and the reinvestment of resources into frontline bankers and technology contributed to the resumption of loan growth in 2022. Share repurchases over the last year to return excess capital to shareholders produced a 7% decrease in outstanding shares over the last twelve months, which has further supported growth in per share earnings and return on equity.
The sale of operations in the third quarter of 2021 inflated revenue and earnings in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021.As a result, GAAP revenue and earnings declined in 2022 compared to these periods.Adjusted measures of revenue and earnings, which do not include these sale gains, advanced in 2022 compared to 2021 in both the third quarter and first nine months of the year. Third quarter earnings per share decreased year-over-year by 68% to $0.42, while adjusted earnings per share increased by 18% to $0.62.Total third quarter net revenue decreased by 25%, while adjusted revenue increased by 17%.
The Company’s BEST plan sets goals for certain non-GAAP adjusted profitability measures.The Company advanced strongly in 2022 towards the target ranges for adjusted return on assets, adjusted return on tangible equity, and adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue.

Third quarter adjusted earnings per share was unchanged at $0.53 in both 2021 and 2020. Lower adjusted revenue in 2021 was offset by a favorable change in the provision for credit losses on loans. The above sale gains are excluded from adjusted revenue and earnings. Other major exclusions are merger, restructuring, and other expense.
Nine month results in 2020 were a loss of $548 million, or $10.90 per share, due primarily to credit loss provision and goodwill charges in the first half of the year stemming from the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic.Nine month results in 2021 were profitable, with net income of $98 million, or $1.97$0.18 per share. In 2021, both GAAP and adjusted quarterlyThis reflected growth in earnings reachingsince the highest levelannouncement of the BEST strategic transformation plan in the third quarter, including the benefit of improving credit quality as pandemic economic recovery has strengthened.
The third quarter efficiency ratio increased year-over-year to 68.8% from 65.4%, and the nine month ratio increased to 69.3% from 67.7%.This primarily reflected lower revenue from net interest income.Return on assets and return on tangible equity improved year-over-year from the first half 2020 loss, and benefited from the sale gains and the credit to the loan loss provision in the third quarter ofMay 2021. The $0.18 dividend represents a yield of approximately 2.6% based on Berkshire’s closing share price of $27.44 on November 3, 2022 and is equivalent to a 29% payout compared to third quarter 2021 return on assets was 2.14% and return on equity was 22.2%.

Adjusted net revenue decreased year-over-year by $5 million, or 5%, in the third quarter and by $1 million, or 1%, in the first nine months of the year. Lower net interest income was partially offset by higher fee revenue. Revenue in 2021 included the approximate impact of the loss of approximately $2 million in revenues from insurance and branch operations which were sold at the end of August 2021.
Net Interest Income: Net interest income decreased year-over-year by $6 million, or 7%, in the third quarter and by $19 million, or 8%, in the first nine months of the year. The third quarter change was primarily due to a decrease in average earning assets, which decreased by 5% year-over-year. This reflected the use of funds from loan run-off to paydown higher cost wholesale funds, together with the reduction in assets related to the branch sale.Additionally, the third quarter net interest margin decreased year-over-year by 5 basis points to 2.56%, due to the shift towards lower risk and shorter duration assets.
The decrease in nine month net interest income was primarily due to a decrease in the net interest margin to 2.60% from 2.75%.This primarily reflected the ongoing impact from the42 basis point contraction in the net interest margin in the second quarter of 2020 following the approximate 150 basis downward parallel shock in interest rates in March 2020 due to pandemic related emergency federal monetary interventions.
The yield on earning assets has decreased steadily over the last five quarters, reflecting ongoing yield compression in the low rate environment, together with the shift in mix with lower loans and higher short-term investments.This has been partially offset by higher income on PPP loans in the last three quarters due to the recognition of deferred revenues when PPP loans were forgiven by the SBA. These loans contributed 11 basis points to the margin in the first and second quarters of 2021, falling to 5 basis points in the most recent quarter. There was no remaining material balance of deferred PPP revenue at period-end.
The Company’s liability management strategies have been focused on supporting the net interest margin to offset asset yield compression. Deposit costs have been repriced down and the Company benefited from higher non-interest bearing checking account balances, which increased year-over-year in the third quarter to 29% of averagedeposits from 24%.
The Company has focused on paying down higher cost wholesale funds as well as lowering the cost of maturing retail time deposits, which have been comparatively high sources of funding in recent years. The Company expects to benefit from the prepayment of FHLBB borrowings which occurred near the end of the most recent quarter. Additionally, the $1.8 billion remaining balance of time deposits at period-end represent further potential opportunity to reduce funding costs compared to peer institutions.COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2021
Non-Interest Income: Summary:Non-interestBerkshire’s third quarter net income increased year-over-yeardecreased by $5471% to $19 million.Results in 2021 included $52 million in the third quarter and by $79 million in the first nine months of the year.

This growth helped offset a 41% reduction in insurance commissions due to the sale of insurance operations, along with a 77% decrease in mortgage banking revenue from elevated business volumes in 2020.
The nine month improvement in non-interest income before gains and losses was primarily due to improvements in the first half of 2021 from the pandemic emergency conditions in the first half of 2020, which resulted in contractions in business activity, fee waivers, and charges resulting from negative price movements in fair valued financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments and other fair valued assets.Additionally, the Company recorded $2 million in PPP referral fees in the first half of 2021 for its participation in the second round of the PPP program, channeling applications through a fintech partner rather than maintaining PPP loans on its balance sheet as it did in 2020.

The provision was elevated in the first half of 2020, as the Company estimated expected loan losses in the context of the global pandemic. The Company continues to maintain an elevated allowance compared to loans based on its methodology. Because of the decline in the loan portfolio, there has been little need for additional provision expense in 2021. The benefit in the most recent quarter reflected a further reduction in loans as well as the improving economic outlook.
Non-Interest Expense and Tax Expense: Non-interest expense decreased year-over-year by $3 million, or 5%, for the third quarter and by $552 million for the first nine months of the year. The third quarter decrease was due to lower merger, restructuring and other non-operating expenses. These costs in 2020 were primarily related to the CEO separation and in 2021 were primarily related to net restructuring costs including borrowings prepayment fees, real estate consolidation plans, and severance. The $552 million nine month decrease was primarily due to the $554 million goodwill write-off in the second quarter of 2020.
The Company’s non-GAAP measure of adjusted non-interest expense excludes the above costs, which are not viewed as related to ongoing operations. Adjusted non-interest expense increased year-over year by $1 million, or 1%, for the third quarter and by $2 million, or 1%, for the first nine months of the year.

Most loans repricing within three months are indexed to Prime, LIBOR, or SOFR which change rapidly as market interest rates change.Deposit cost changes depend on market factors and typically operate with a lag, which has been pronounced in the current environment of rapid market rate increases.
At period-end, the Company remained asset sensitive and was positioned to benefit from further increases in market interest rates in 2022 based on market forecasts. This is discussed below in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”. Expected market interest rate increases in the fourth quarter may provide further benefit to the net interest income. Based on the Company’s interest rate risk modeling, the deposit beta increase over time, and the cost of wholesale funds may also affect the cost of interest bearing liabilities, depending on market and competitive conditions and the Company’s asset and liability management strategies.The Companystructure of deposits, including the percentage of non-interest-bearing deposits (which was 29% of total deposits at period-end) may also affect the margin depending on future economic and monetary conditions.

Fair Value Measurements: Fair value measurements are discussed in the related financial statement footnote. The most significant measurements of recurring fair values of financial instruments primarily relate to securities available for sale, loans held for sale, and derivative instruments. These measurements were generally based on Level 2 market-based inputs. The premium or discount value of loans has historically been the most significant element of this period-end presentation. This premium or discount is a Level 3 estimate and reflects management’s subjective judgments.

The Company continues to develop and execute plans to transition instruments associated with LIBOR to alternative reference rates. The Company expects that LIBOR based instruments issued after year-end 2021 will utilize a different pricing index, and it is working actively with customers and its core systems provider to prepare for this transition. The Company has begun incorporating SOFR in place of LIBOR in new contracts and contract proposals.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements
included in its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Modifications to significant accounting policies made during the year are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP and practices generally applicable to the financial services industry requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and to disclose contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management has identified the Company's most critical accounting policies as related to:
• Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
• Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsMeasurements
These particular significant accounting policies are considered most critical in that they are important to the Company’s financial condition and results, and they require management’s subjective and complex judgment as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Both of these most critical accounting policies were significant in determining income and financial condition based on events in 2021.the financial statements. There is further discussion of the application of these policies in the Form 10-K.
ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT
Following sections of this report on Form 10-Q include discussion of market risk and risk factors. Risk management is overseen by the Company’s Chief Risk Officer, who reports directly to the CEO. This position oversees risk management policy, credit, loan review, compliance and information security. Enterprise risk assessments are brought to the Company’s Enterprise Risk Management Committee, and then are reported to the Board’s Risk Management, Capital, and CapitalCompliance Committee. The high level corporate risk assessment focuses onincludes the following material business risks: credit risk, interest rate risk, price risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, compliance risk, strategic risk, and reputation risk, with the credit risk category having the highest weighting. Based on management's recent review, all risks were within corporate appetites. Increases in risks were noted for credit risk and compliance risk over the past year due largely to the pandemic; liquidity risks were declining due to elevated liquid assets. For all material business risks, residual risk was viewed as medium/low to medium due to mitigating controls functioning in the Company.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For additional discussion about the Company’s Quantitative and Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk, please review Item 7A of the most recent report on Form 10-K which sets forth the methodologies employed by the Company and the various aspects of its analysis of its interest rate sensitivity. Berkshire’s objective is to maintain a neutral or asset sensitive interest rate risk profile, as measured by the sensitivity of net interest income to market interest rate changes.
As of September 30, 2021,2022, Berkshire’s balance sheet was positioned to further benefit from for the forecast rising rate environment. Shown below is a chart of the modeled change in net interest income is expected to benefit from upward changes in interest rates. In the scenario of a 200 basis point upward parallel ramp, the Company models approximately a 4% increase in NII in the first year and a 13% increase in the second year. A scenario of a 200 basis point upward shock results in a 13% increase in the first year, with a further small increase in the second year. Upward ramps and shocks of 100 basis points result in slightly less than half of the modeled benefit of 200 basis point rate increase scenarios. Under an implied forward curve scenario, net interest income benefits by 1% and 3% in the first and second years, respectively, primarily driven by improvement in earning asset yields. The Company’s net income is also modeled to increasestatic base case in the event of interest rate increases. shocks for the scenarios illustrated.

The dollar amountshock information above shows that the Company has become less asset sensitive in the first nine months of 2022 due primarily to the reinvestment of cash into loans, some of which are longer duration. The Company remained asset sensitive at period-end and therefore was positioned to further benefit from expected interest rate increases in the fourth quarter of 2022.The Company’s sensitivity to decreases in interest rates has become more pronounced as current higher levels of interest rates are reflected in current net interest income. The downward sensitivity had not previously been significant during the near-zero interest rate environment in recent years as asset yields remained low. The Company is actively managing earnings sensitivity to lower rates within the total context of its strategic management. The increase in cash flow hedge derivatives in the most recent quarter had the impact of limiting the increase in interest income in rising rate environments and the decrease in interest income in falling rate environments.
The Company also models net interest income sensitivity to interest rate ramps.At period-end, the year one sensitivity to a +100 basis point interest rate ramp was 1.7% and the year two sensitivity was 4.4%. The Company also models sensitivity to yield curve twists, and sensitivity remained positive in most scenarios for widening and narrowing of the yield curve.
While the sensitivity of net interest income is the primary driver of the sensitivity of net income, at risk wasthe latter is more sensitive than the former since it is net of expenses. In the case of the first year of a +100 basis point scenario, the modeled to generally be the same as the amountshock sensitivity of net-interestnet income at risk. is 5.8%.
Economic value of Equity (EVE)equity sensitivity to changes in market rates was nearly neutral at period-end , measuring 0.6%
for a +200% basis point shock.
A critical component of modeling is a discounted cash flowthe assumption of deposit interest rate sensitivity. The Company continues to model designed to estimate the fair valueinterest bearing deposit beta of assets and liabilities under a seriesapproximately 30-40% for purposes of interest rate shocks over a long-term horizon. At this time, EVErisk simulations. The resulting modeled deposit beta for all deposits is positivelyapproximately 21.28%, with the volume of non-interest bearing deposits remaining unchanged in the static model base case.The actual deposit beta compared to fed funds was approximately 12% for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2022.It was approximately 6% for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.The actual cost of deposits in 2022 has been
less sensitive than the Company’s traditional modeling assumptions due to increasesthe rapid increase in interest rates and high liquidity in the economy in the unusual conditions prevailing in 2022.
Modeled interest rate sensitivity depends on other material assumptions. Market risk exposure is affected by the level and shape of the yield curve in markets for financial instruments including U.S. Treasury obligations, forward interest rate derivatives, the U.S. prime interest rate, and LIBOR related rates. Also, the economic impact on customer and market behaviors of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain and may cause actual events to differ from assumptions. The behavior of markets under the historically unusual conditions currently prevailing may be different from modeling assumptions, and the Company continues to monitor the markets and the assumptions in its model.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a) Disclosure controls and procedures.
The principal executive officers, including the principal financial officer, based on their evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As of September 30, 2021,2022, neither the Company nor the Bank was involved in any pending legal proceedings believed by management to be material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Periodically, there have been various claims and lawsuits involving the Bank, such as claims to enforce liens, condemnation proceedings on properties in which the Bank holds security interests, claims involving the making and servicing of real property loans, and other issues incident to the Bank’s business. A summary of certain legal matters involving unsettled litigation or pertaining to pending transactions are as follows:
On February 4, 2020, the Bank filed a complaint in the New York State Supreme Court for the County of Albany against Pioneer Bank (“Pioneer”) seeking damages of approximately $16.0 million. The complaint alleges that Pioneer is liable to the Bank for a credit loss of approximately $16.0 million suffered by the Bank in the third quarter of 2019 as a result of Pioneer’s breach of loan participation agreements in which it served as the lead bank, as well as constructive fraud, fraudulent concealment and/or negligent misrepresentation. Pioneer has filed a motion to dismiss aspects of the Bank’s complaint, which motion was allowed in part by the court to dismiss the Bank’s negligent misrepresentation claim, and denied in part by the court to allow all other claims by the Bank to proceed. Discovery is now underway in this action. The Company wrote down the underlying credit loss in its entirety in the third quarter of 2019, but recognized a partial recovery of $1.7 million early in the second quarter of 2020. The Company has not accrued for any additional anticipated recovery at this time.
On September 11, 2020, the Company received notice of a demand letter served on the Company and the Bank by a former mortgagee of the Bank pursuant to the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act, M.G.L Ch. 93A (“Chapter 93A). The demand letter alleges that a mortgage payoff statement tendered by the Bank to the mortgagee included a mortgage discharge preparation fee that is purportedly impermissible under Massachusetts law. The demand letter also claims that the Bank failed to provide a copy of the recorded mortgage discharge to the mortgagee in a timely manner. The demand letter further purports to state claims on behalf of a putative class of similarly situated Massachusetts mortgage customers of the Bank, who allegedly may have suffered similar violations of Massachusetts law. The demand letter seeks monetary damages for the original mortgagee claimant and the putative class, plus double or treble damages and reasonable attorneys’ fees, as may be allowed under Chapter 93A. The Company and the Bank have retained outside litigation counsel in this matter, and discussions have proceeded between the parties to find a mutually acceptable resolution. On July 28, 2021, a class action complaint was filed by the original 93A claimant against the Bank in the Massachusetts Superior Court for Suffolk County, pursuant to a pre-negotiated Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) between the parties.In accordance with the MOU, the parties have filed and the court has preliminarily approved a settlement agreement, under which the Bank expects to pay damages of approximately $510,000 in exchange for the dismissal with prejudice and release of all claims that have been or could have been asserted in the filed class action lawsuit on behalf of the plaintiff and all putative settlement class members, plus certain costs for administration of the class action settlement and legal fees incurred by the named plaintiff up to the amount of $85,000.
On or about August 10, 2020, a former employee of the Bank’s subsidiary First Choice Loan Services Inc. (“FCLS”) filed a complaint in the Court of Common Pleas, Bucks County Pennsylvania against FCLS and two of its former senior corporate officers generally alleging wrongful termination as a result of purported whistleblower retaliation and other violations of New Jersey state employment law. The complaint also purports to name the Bank and the Company as additional defendants, even though neither entity ever employed, paid wages to or contracted with the plaintiff. On November 16, 2020, the plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint reiterating the same claims against the same defendants. The Company's liability insurer has provided outside litigation counsel to defend the Company and the Bank in this matter, as well as FCLS and its former senior corporate officers. On December 7, 2020, defense counsel filed Preliminary Objections on behalf of the Company, the Bank, FCLS and FCLS’s former senior corporate officers denying the plaintiff’s claims and seeking dismissal of the case and an order that the plaintiff’s claims must proceed through arbitration in accordance with contractual obligations set forth in plaintiff’s previous employment agreement with FCLS. On June 30, 2021, the court dismissed the plaintiff’s complaint without prejudice in support of FCLS’s petition to compel arbitration. The parties have mutually agreed on an arbitrator to hear the case and are preparing for arbitration proceedings that are expected to occur in the first half of 2023.
The Chapter 11 Trustee in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Michigan for Interlogic Outsourcing, Inc. (“IOI”), a failed former payroll services company, has given the Bank notice of a threatened adversary proceeding to attempt to recover losses suffered by IOI’s creditors when IOI collapsed in July 2019 as a result of a fraudulent check kiting and pyramid scheme perpetrated by its founder, owner and former CEO Najeeb Ahmed Kahn. The Trustee’s threatened adversary proceeding complaint would allege, among other things, that the Bank knew or should have known that Mr. Kahn was conducting illegal, fraudulent check kiting and running a pyramid scheme, failed to properly monitor Mr. Kahn’s activities, and did nothing to stop him to the ultimate detriment of IOI and its creditors. The Bank did not actively participate in any of Mr. Kahn’s alleged illegal actions and denies that it had any duty to monitor or prevent the same. No formal complaint or action has been filed by IOI’s Bankruptcy Trustee to date, but the parties have agreed to participate in a 2-day mediation at the end of November 2022, where they will attempt to resolve the situation by mutual agreement.
