NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

UNITED BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of United Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“United” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles for interim financial information generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and with the instructions for Form

10-Q

and Article 10 of Regulation

S-X.

Accordingly, the financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements presented as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and 2018 and for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended have not been audited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 has been extracted from the audited financial statements included in United’s 2018 Annual Report to Shareholders. The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of these financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the 2018 Annual Report of United on Form

10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of United and its wholly owned subsidiaries. United operates in two business segments: community banking and mortgage banking. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Information is presented in these notes to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements with dollars expressed in thousands, except per share or unless otherwise noted.

New Accounting Standards

In ~~August 2018,~~April 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ~~Accounting Standards Update (ASU)~~ASU No.

2019-04

“Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” The amendments clarify the scope of the credit losses standard and address issued related to accrued interest receivable balances, recoveries, variable interest rates and prepayments. The amendments also address partial-term fair valued hedges, fair value hedge basis adjustments. The amendments to the credit losses and hedging standards have the same effective dates as those standards, unless an entity has already adopted the standards. The amendments to recognition and measurement guidance are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the possible impact this standard may have on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No.

2018-14 ~~“Compensation~~

“Compensation – Retirement Benefits -

—

Defined Benefits – General (Topic

715-20):

Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” This update amends ASC Topic 715 to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other post retirement plans. The ASU’s changes related to disclosures are part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project, which the FASB launched in 2014 to improve effectiveness of disclosures in notes to financial statements. ASUNo.

2018-14

is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim fiscal periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted. ASUNo.

2018-14

is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

2017-12, ~~“Targeting~~

“Targeting Improvement to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” This ASU amends ASC 815 and its objectives are to improve the transparency and understandability of information conveyed to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities by better aligning the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities and reduce the complexity and simplify the application of hedge accounting by preparers.

2017-08, ~~“Receivables~~

“Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic

310-20):

Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.” This update amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. FASB is shortening the amortization period for the premium to the earliest call date. Under current GAAP, entities generally amortize the premium as an adjustment of yield over the contractual life of the instrument. Concerns were raised that current GAAP excludes certain callable debt securities from consideration of early repayment of principal even if the holder is certain that the call will be exercised. As a result, upon the exercise of a call on a callable debt security held at a premium, the unamortized premium is recorded as a loss in earnings. There is diversity in practice (1) in the amortization period for premiums of callable debt securities and (2) in how the potential for exercise of a call is factored into current impairment assessments. The amendments in this update became effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. ASUNo.

“Financial Instruments – Credit ~~Losses.” ASUNo. 2016-13~~Losses” which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments that ~~aren’t~~are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost and require entities to record allowances for ~~available for sale~~

debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount under the current other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) model. ASUNo.

2016-13

also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.

includes a lessee accounting model that recognizes two types of leases, finance leases and operating leases, while lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged from the current GAAP. ASUNo.

2016-02

requires, amongst other things, that a lessee recognize on the balance sheet a

right-of-use

asset and a lease liability for leases with terms of more than twelve months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASUNo.

2018-11 ~~“Leases~~

“Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements.” This update creates an additional transition method, and a lessor practical expedient to not separate lease and

non-lease

components if specified criteria are met. The new transition method allows companies to use the effective date of the new leases standard as the date of initial application transition. Companies that elect this transition option will not adjust their comparative period financial information for the effect of ASC Topic 842, nor will they make the new required lease disclosure for periods before the effective date. In addition, these companies will carry forward their ASC Topic 840 disclosures for comparative periods. The practical expedient permits lessors to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not separate lease and

non-lease

components if specified criteria are met. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASUNo.

2018-10 ~~“Codification~~

“Codification Improvements to ASC Topic 842, Leases.” This update includes narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new leases standard. The amendments address the rate implicit in the lease, impairment of the net investment in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments. ASU

2018-10

does not make any substantive changes to the core provisions or principals of the new leases standard. United adopted

Table of Contents

the standard using the modified retrospective transition method on January 1, 2019. The Company evaluated and elected the package of practical expedients, which allows for existing leases to be accounted for consistent with

current guidance, with the exception of the balance sheet recognition for lessees. The Company has also elected the practical expedient on not separating lease and nonlease components and instead treating them as a single lease component. Adoption of the standard resulted in the recognition of additional net lease assets and lease liabilities of $67,040 and $70,692, respectively, as of January 1, 2019. Of the difference between these two amounts, $1,049 was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, gross unrealized losses on available for sale securities were ~~$15,560~~$10,294 on ~~456~~145 securities of a total portfolio of ~~842~~738 available for

sale securities. Securities ~~in an~~with the most significant gross unrealized ~~loss position~~losses at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 consisted primarily of asset-backed securities, agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, single issue trust preferred securities

and ~~residential mortgage-backed securities.~~ trust preferred collateralized debt obligations.

The asset-backed securities are backed by Federal Family Education Loan Program

(FFELP) student loan collateral which includes a minimum of a 97% government repayment guaranty, as well as additional credit support and subordination in excess of the government guaranteed portion.

The

agency

commercial ~~and residential~~

mortgage-backed securities relate to

commercial ~~and residential~~

properties and provide a guaranty of full and timely payments of principal and interest by the issuing agency.

The single issue trust preferred securities

and the trust preferred collateralized debt obligations

relate

mainly

to securities of financial institutions.

In determining whether or not a security is other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI), management considered the severity and the duration of the loss in conjunction with United’s positive intent and the more likely than not ability to hold these securities to recovery of their cost basis or maturity.

State and political subdivisions

United’s state and political subdivisions portfolio relates to securities issued by various municipalities located throughout the United States. The total amortized cost of available for sale state and political subdivision securities was ~~$194,595~~$234,552 at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, approximately ~~78%~~71% of the portfolio was supported by the general obligation of the issuing municipality, which allows for the securities to be repaid by any means available to the municipality. The majority of the portfolio was rated AA or higher, and less than one percent of the portfolio was rated below investment grade as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. In addition to monitoring the credit ratings of these securities, management also evaluates the financial performance of the underlying issuers on an ongoing basis. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the state and political subdivision securities were other-than-temporarily impaired at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

Agency mortgage-backed securities

United’s agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio relates to securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae. The total amortized cost of available for sale agency mortgage-backed securities was ~~$1,551,078~~$1,464,559 at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

Single issue trust preferred securities

The majority of United’s single issue trust preferred portfolio consists of obligations from large cap banks (i.e. banks with market capitalization in excess of $10 billion). All single issue trust preferred securities are currently receiving interest payments. The amortized cost of available for sale single issue trust preferred securities as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 consisted of ~~$4,033~~$4,040 in investment grade bonds, ~~$5,934~~$5,936 in split rated bonds, ~~$2,479~~$2,480 in below investment grade rated bonds, and ~~$5,727~~$5,732 in unrated bonds. Management reviews each issuer’s current and projected earnings trends, asset quality, capitalization levels, and other key factors. Upon completing the review for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019, it was determined that none of the single issue trust preferred securities were other-than-temporarily impaired.

Trust preferred collateralized debt obligations (Trup Cdos)

The total amortized cost balance of United’s Trup Cdo portfolio was ~~$6,176~~$6,130 as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. For any securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses its intentions regarding any sale of securities as well as the likelihood that it would be required to sell prior to recovery of the amortized cost. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, the Company has determined that it does not intend to sell any Trup Cdo and that it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such securities before recovery of their amortized cost.

To determine a net realizable value and assess whether other-than-temporary impairment existed, management performed detailed cash flow analysis to determine whether, in management’s judgment, it was more likely that United would not recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. ~~Except for~~Based on this review, management determined that one of the ~~debt~~Trup Cdo securities ~~that have already been deemed to be~~was other-than-temporarily impaired ~~management does not believe any other individual security with an unrealized loss~~ as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

was $9.

Corporate securities

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United’s Corporate securities portfolio had a total amortized cost balance of ~~$266,385.~~$350,850. The majority of the portfolio consisted of debt issuances of corporations representing a variety of industries, including financial institutions. Of the ~~$266,385,~~$

350,850

, 92% was investment grade rated and 8% was unrated. For corporate securities, management has evaluated the near-term prospects of the investment in relation to the severity and duration of any impairment. Based upon management’s analysis and judgment, it was determined that none of the other corporate securities were other-than-temporarily impaired at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

4. CREDIT QUALITY

Management monitors the credit quality of its loans on an ongoing basis. Measurement of delinquency and past due status are based on the contractual terms of each loan.

For all loan classes, past due loans are reviewed on a monthly basis to identify loans for nonaccrual status. Generally, when collection in full of the principal and interest is jeopardized, the loan is placed on nonaccrual status. The accrual of interest income on commercial and most consumer loans generally is discontinued when a loan becomes 90 to 120 days past due as to principal or interest. However, regardless of delinquency status, if a loan is fully secured and in the process of collection and resolution of collection is expected in the near term (generally less than 9090 days), then the loan will not be placed on nonaccrual status. When interest accruals are discontinued, unpaid interest recognized in income in the current year is reversed, and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged to the allowance for loan

Table of Contents

losses. United’s method of income recognition for loans that are classified as nonaccrual is to recognize interest income on a cash basis or apply the cash receipt to principal when the ultimate collectibility of principal is in doubt. Nonaccrual loans will not normally be returned to accrual status unless all past due principal and interest has been paid and the borrower has evidenced their ability to meet the contractual provisions of the note.

A loan is categorized as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if a concession is granted and there is deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. TDRs can take the form of a reduction of the stated interest rate, splitting a loan into separate loans with market terms on one loan and concessionary terms on the other loan, receipts of assets from a debtor in partial or full satisfaction of a loan, the extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, the reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the instrument or other agreement, the reduction of accrued interest or any other concessionary type of renegotiated debt. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had TDRs of ~~$56,778~~$60,559 as compared to $59,425 as of December 31, 2018. Of the ~~$56,778~~$60,559 aggregate balance of TDRs at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, ~~$47,459~~$50,757 was on nonaccrual and ~~$265~~$1,115 were 90

30-89

days ~~or more~~ past due. Of the $59,425 aggregate balance of TDRs at December 31, 2018, $48,899 were on nonaccrual and $690 were 90 days or more past due. All these amounts are included in the appropriate categories in the “Age Analysis of Past Due Loans” table on a subsequent page. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019,

there ~~were no commitments~~was a commitment to lend additional funds of $293 to ~~debtors~~one debtor owing receivables whose terms have been modified in TDRs. During the third quarter of 2019, $24 was advanced to this debtor under a loan that had been previously modified

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had restructured loans in the amount of ~~$1,846~~$1,728 that were modified by a reduction in the interest rate, ~~$1,809~~$1,784 that were modified by a combination of a reduction in the interest rate and the principal and ~~$53,123~~$57,047 that were modified by a change in terms.

For the first nine months of 2019, $246 thousand of restructured loans were modified by an interest rate reduction and $11,018 of restructured loans were modified by a change in terms. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, $7,636 and $24,115 of restructured loans were modified by a change in loan terms. In some instances, the post-modification balance on the restructured loans is larger than the

pre-modification

balance due to the advancement of monies for items such as delinquent taxes on real estate property. The loans were evaluated individually for allocation within United’s allowance for loan losses. The modifications had an immaterial impact on the financial condition and results of operations for United.

United assigns credit quality indicators of pass, special mention, substandard and doubtful to its loans. For United’s loans with a corporate credit exposure, United internally assigns a grade based on the creditworthiness of the borrower. For loans with a consumer credit exposure, United internally assigns a grade based upon an individual loan’s delinquency status. United reviews and updates, as necessary, these grades on a quarterly basis.

Special mention loans, with a corporate credit exposure, have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loans or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Borrowers may be experiencing adverse operating trends (declining revenues or margins) or an ill proportioned balance sheet (e.g., increasing inventory without an increase in sales, high leverage, tight liquidity). Adverse economic or market conditions, such as interest rate increases or the entry of a new competitor, may also support a special mention rating. Nonfinancial reasons for rating a credit exposure special mention include management problems, pending litigation, an ineffective loan agreement or other material structural weakness, and any other significant deviation from prudent lending practices. For loans with a consumer credit exposure, loans that are past due~~30-89~~

30-89 days

are generally considered special mention.

A substandard loan with a corporate credit exposure is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt by the borrower. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. They require more intensive

supervision by management. Substandard loans are generally characterized by current or expected unprofitable operations, inadequate debt service coverage, inadequate liquidity, or marginal capitalization. Repayment may depend on collateral or other credit risk mitigants. For some substandard loans, the likelihood of full collection of interest and principal may be in doubt and thus, placed on nonaccrual. For loans with a consumer credit exposure, loans that are 90 days or more past due or that have been placed on nonaccrual are considered substandard.

A loan with corporate credit exposure is classified as doubtful if it has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. A doubtful loan has a high probability of total or substantial loss, but because of specific pending events that may strengthen the loan, 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, there are not any loans with a consumer credit exposure that are classified as doubtful. Usually, they are

charged-off

prior to such a classification. Loans classified as doubtful are also considered impaired.

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the opinion of management, based on current information and events, the collection of principal and interest in accordance with the loan contract is doubtful. Typically, United does not consider loans for impairment unless a sustained period of delinquency (i.e. 90 days or more) is noted or there are subsequent events that impact repayment probability (i.e. negative financial trends, bankruptcy filings, eminent foreclosure proceedings, etc.). Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature and on an individual loan basis for other loans. Consistent with United’s existing method of income recognition for loans, interest on impaired loans, except those classified as nonaccrual, is recognized as income using the accrual method. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, other real estate owned (“OREO”) included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets was ~~$17,465~~ $

18,367

and ~~$16,865,~~$

16,865

, respectively. OREO consists of real estate acquired in foreclosure or other settlement of loans. Such assets are carried at the lower of the investment in the assets or the fair

value of the assets less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment to the fair value at the date of transfer is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent valuation adjustments as well as any costs relating to operating,

holding or disposing of the property are recorded in other expense in the period incurred. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the recorded investment of consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process was ~~$263~~$1,454 and $520, respectively.

5. ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is management’s estimate of the probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. For purposes of determining the general allowance, the loan portfolio is segregated by product type to recognize differing risk profiles among categories. It is further segregated by credit grade for

non-homogenous

loan pools and delinquency for homogeneous loan pools. The outstanding principal balance within each pool is multiplied by historical loss data, the loss emergence period (which is the period of time between the event that triggers a loss and the confirmation and/or charge off of that loss) and certain qualitative factors to derive the general loss allocation per pool. Specific loss allocations are calculated for commercial loans in excess of $500,000 in accordance with ASC Topic 310. Risk characteristics of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans and other commercial loans are similar in that they are normally dependent upon the borrower’s internal cash flow from operations to service debt. Nonowner-occupied commercial real estate loans differ in that cash flow to service debt is normally dependent on external income from third parties for use of the real estate such as rents, leases and room rates. Residential real estate loans are dependent upon individual borrowers who are affected by changes in general economic conditions, demand for housing and resulting residential real estate valuation. Construction and land development loans are impacted mainly by demand whether for new residential housing or for retail, industrial, office and other types of commercial construction within a given area. Consumer loan pool risk characteristics are influenced by general, regional and local economic conditions.

Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, while recoveries of previously

charged-off

amounts are credited to the allowance for loan losses. For commercial loans, when a loan or a portion of a loan is identified to contain a loss, a

charge-off

recommendation is directed to management to

charge-off

all or a portion of that loan. Generally, any unsecured commercial loan more than six months delinquent in payment of interest must be

charged-off

in full. If secured, the

charge-off

is generally made to reduce the loan balance to a level equal to the liquidation value of the collateral when payment of principal and interest is six months delinquent. Any commercial loan, secured or unsecured, on which a principal or interest payment has not been made within 90 days, is reviewed monthly for appropriate action.

For consumer loans,

closed-end

retail loans that are past due 120 cumulative days delinquent from the contractual due date and

open-end

loans 180 cumulative days delinquent from the contractual due date are

charged-off.

Any consumer loan on which a principal or interest payment has not been made within 90 days is reviewed monthly for appropriate action. For a

one-to-four

family

open-end

closed-end

residential real estate loan, home equity loan, or

high-loan-to-value

loan that has reached 180 or more days past due, management evaluates the collateral position and

charges-off

any amount that exceeds the value of the collateral. On retail credits for which the borrower is in bankruptcy, all amounts deemed unrecoverable are charged off within 60 days of the receipt of the notification. On retail credits effected by fraud, a loan is

charged-off

within 90 days of the discovery of the fraud. In the event of the borrower’s death and if repayment within the required timeframe is uncertain, the loan is generally

charged-off

as soon as the amount of the loss is determined.

For loans acquired through the completion of a transfer, including loans acquired in a business combination, that have evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it is probable, at acquisition, that United will be unable to collect all contractually required payment receivable are initially recorded at fair value (as determined by the present value of expected future cash flows) with no valuation allowance. The difference between the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition and the investment in the loan, or the “accretable yield,” is recognized

Table of Contents

as interest income on a level-yield method over the life of the loan. Contractually required payments for interest and principal that exceed the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition, or the “nonaccretable difference,” are not

recognized as a yield adjustment or as a loss accrual or a valuation allowance. Increases in expected cash flows subsequent to the initial investment are recognized prospectively through adjustment of the yield on the loan over its remaining life. Decreases in expected cash flows are recognized as impairment. Valuation allowances on these impaired loans reflect only losses incurred after the acquisition (meaning the present value of all cash flows expected at acquisition that ultimately are not to be received). For the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ the amount of provision for loan losses related to loans acquired that have evidence of deterioration of credit quality resulted in provision for loan losses expense of ~~$1,637~~$631 and ~~$1,279, respectively.~~

$3,899, respectively, as compared to a provision for loan losses expense of $924 and $3,004, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

United maintains an allowance for loan losses and a reserve for lending-related commitments such as unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. The reserve for lending-related commitments of ~~$1,461~~$1,776 and $1,389 at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, is separately classified on the balance sheet and is included in other liabilities. The combined allowance for loan losses and reserve for lending-related commitments are referred to as the allowance for credit losses.

A progression of the allowance for loan losses, by portfolio segment, for the periods indicated is summarized as follows:

7. LEASES

United determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. United and certain subsidiaries have entered into various noncancelable-operating leases for branch and loan production offices as well as operating facilities. Operating leases are included in operating lease

right-of-use

(“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Presently, United does not have any finance leases.

United’s operating leases are subject to renewal options under various terms. United’s operating leases have remaining terms of 1 to 14 years, some of which include options to extend leases generally for periods of 5 years. United rents or subleases certain real estate to third parties. Our sublease portfolio consists of operating leases to other organizations for former branch offices.

ROU assets represent United’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent United’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of United’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that United will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

8. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are a significant source of funds for the Company. United has various unused lines of credit available from certain of its correspondent banks in the aggregate amount of $230,000. These lines of credit, which bear interest at prevailing market rates, permit United to borrow

Table of Contents

funds in the overnight market, and are renewable annually subject to certain conditions. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United did ~~not~~0t have any federal funds purchased while total securities sold under agreements to repurchase (REPOs) were ~~$127,821.~~$129,966. The securities sold under agreements to repurchase were accounted for as collateralized financial transactions. They were recorded at the amounts at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest.

United has a $20,000 line of credit with an unrelated financial institution to provide for general liquidity needs. The line is an unsecured, revolving line of credit. The line will be renewable on a

360-day

basis and will carry an indexed, floating-rate of interest. The line requires compliance with various financial and nonfinancial covenants. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had no0 outstanding balance under this line of credit.

Table of Contents

9. LONG-TERM BORROWINGS

United’s subsidiary bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). Membership in the FHLB makes available short-term and long-term borrowings from collateralized advances. All FHLB borrowings are collateralized by a mix of single-family residential mortgage loans, commercial loans and investment securities. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had an unused borrowing amount of approximately ~~$3,696,123~~$3,894,693 available subject to delivery of collateral after certain trigger points. Advances may be called by the FHLB or redeemed by United based on predefined factors and penalties.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, ~~$1,603,615~~$1,672,448 of FHLB advances with a weighted-average interest rate of ~~2.41%~~2.11% are scheduled to mature within the next six years.

Overnight funds of $200,000 with an interest rate of 2.15% are included in the FHLB advances of $1,672,448 at September 30, 2019.

The scheduled maturities of these FHLB borrowings are as follows:

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had a total of fourteen statutory business trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing or participating in pools of trust preferred capital securities (“Capital Securities”) with the proceeds invested in junior subordinated debt securities (“Debentures”) of United. The Debentures, which are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness and certain other financial obligations of United, are the sole assets of the trusts and United’s payment under the Debentures is the sole source of revenue for the trusts. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the outstanding balance of the Debentures was ~~$235,220~~$235,849 and $234,905, respectively, and was included in the category of long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets entitled “Other long-term borrowings.” The Capital Securities are not included as a component of shareholders’ equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. United fully and unconditionally guarantees each individual trust’s obligations under the Capital Securities.

Under the provisions of the subordinated debt, United has the right to defer payment of interest on the subordinated debt at any time, or from time to time, for periods not exceeding

five years.

If interest payments on the subordinated debt are deferred, the dividends on the Capital Securities are also deferred. Interest on the subordinated debt is cumulative.

In accordance with the fully-phased in “Basel III Capital Rules” as published by United’s primary federal regulator, the Federal Reserve, United is unable to consider the Capital Securities as Tier 1 capital, but rather the Capital Securities are included as a component of United’s Tier 2 capital. United can include the Capital Securities in its Tier 2 capital on a permanent basis.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

United is a party to financial instruments with

off-balance-sheet

risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to alter its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and interest rate swap agreements. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the financial statements.

Table of Contents

United’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for the loan commitments and standby letters of credit is the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. United uses the same policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for

on-balance

sheet instruments. Collateral may be obtained, if deemed necessary, based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily, and historically do not, represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. United had approximately ~~$4,041,076~~$3,831,866 and $3,826,370 of loan commitments outstanding as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, ~~the majority~~approximately half of which contractually expire within one year. Included in the ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 amount are commitments to extend credit of ~~$422,953~~$311,366 related to George Mason’s mortgage loan funding commitments and are of a short-term nature.

Commercial and standby letters of credit are agreements used by United’s customers as a means of improving their credit standing in their dealings with others. Under these agreements, United guarantees certain financial commitments of its customers. A commercial letter of credit is issued specifically to facilitate trade or commerce. Typically, under the terms of a commercial letter of credit, a commitment is drawn upon when the underlying transaction is consummated as intended between the customer and a third party. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United had $5,092 of commercial letters of credit outstanding. As of December 31, 2018, United had no0 outstanding commercial letters of credit. A standby letter of credit is generally contingent upon the failure of a customer to perform according to the terms of an underlying contract with a third party. United has issued standby letters of credit of ~~$131,536~~$136,962 and $141,032 as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. In accordance with the Contingencies Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, United has determined that substantially all of its letters of credit are renewed on an annual basis and the fees associated with these letters of credit are immaterial.

George Mason provides for its estimated exposure to repurchase loans previously sold to investors for which borrowers failed to provide full and accurate information on their loan application or for which appraisals have not been acceptable or where the loan was not underwritten in accordance with the loan program specified by the loan investor, and for other exposure to its investors related to loan sales activities. United evaluates the merits of each claim and estimates its reserve based on actual and expected claims received and considers the historical amounts paid to settle such claims. George Mason has a reserve of ~~$636~~$1,173 as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

United has derivative counter-party risk that may arise from the possible inability of George Mason’s third party investors to meet the terms of their forward sales contracts. George Mason works with third-party investors that are generally well-capitalized, are investment grade and exhibit strong financial performance to mitigate this risk. United does not expect any third-party investor to fail to meet its obligation.

United and its subsidiaries are currently involved in various legal proceedings in the normal course of business. Management is vigorously pursuing all its legal and factual defenses and, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that all such litigation will be resolved with no material effect on United’s financial position.

11. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

United uses derivative instruments to help aid against adverse price changes or interest rate movements on the value of certain assets or liabilities and on future cash flows. These derivatives may consist of interest rate swaps, caps, floors, collars, futures, forward contracts, written and purchased options. United also executes derivative instruments with its commercial banking customers to facilitate its risk management strategies.

United accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815 which requires all derivative instruments to be carried at fair value on the balance sheet. United has designated certain derivative instruments used to manage interest rate risk as hedge relationships with certain assets, liabilities or cash flows being hedged. Certain derivatives used for interest rate risk management are not designated in a hedge relationship.

Derivative instruments designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivative instruments designated in a hedge relationship to mitigate exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

adjustments due to changes in the fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a fair value hedge are recorded in income in the same period and in the same income statement line as changes in the fair values of the hedged items that relate to the hedged risk(s). For a cash flow hedge, the fair value of the interest rate swap is recognized on the balance sheet as either a freestanding asset or liability with a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity, net of tax. Subsequent adjustments due to changes in the fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes, and reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. The portion of a hedge that is ineffective is recognized immediately in earnings.

At inception of a hedge relationship, United formally documents the hedged item, the particular risk management objective, the nature of the risk being hedged, the derivative being used, how effectiveness of the hedge will be assessed and how the ineffectiveness of the hedge will be measured. United also assesses hedge effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing basis using regression analysis. Hedge ineffectiveness is measured by using the change in fair value method. The change in fair value method compares the change in the fair value of the hedging derivative to the change in the fair value of the hedged exposure, attributable to changes in the benchmark rate. The portion of a hedge that is ineffective is recognized immediately in earnings.

United through George Mason enters into interest rate lock commitments to finance residential mortgage loans with its customers. These commitments, which contain fixed expiration dates, offer the borrower an interest rate guarantee provided the loan meets underwriting guidelines and closes within the timeframe established by United. Interest rate risk arises on these commitments and subsequently closed loans if interest rates change between the time of the interest rate lock and the delivery of the loan to the investor. Market risk on interest rate lock commitments and mortgage loans held for sale is managed using corresponding forward mortgage loan sales contracts. United is a party to these forward mortgage loan sales contracts to sell loans servicing released and short sales of mortgage-backed securities. When the interest rate is locked with the borrower, the rate lock commitment, forward sale agreement, and mortgage-backed security position are undesignated derivatives and marked to fair value through earnings. The fair value of the rate lock derivative includes the servicing premium and the interest spread for the difference between retail and wholesale mortgage rates. Income from mortgage banking activities includes the gain recognized for the period presented and associated elements of fair value.

Table of Contents

United sells mortgage loans on either a best efforts or mandatory delivery basis. For loans sold on a mandatory delivery basis, United enters into forward mortgage-backed securities (the “residual hedge”) to mitigate the effect of interest rate risk. Both the rate lock commitment under mandatory delivery and the residual hedge are recorded at fair value through earnings and are not designated as accounting hedges. At the closing of the loan, the loan commitment derivative expires and United records a loan held for sale at fair value and continues to mark these assets to market under the election of fair value option. United closes out of the trading mortgage-backed securities assigned within the residual hedge and replaces the securities with a forward sales contract once a price has been accepted by an investor and recorded at fair value. For those loans selected to be sold under best efforts delivery, at the closing of the loan, the rate lock commitment derivative expires and the Company records a loan held for sale at fair value under the election of fair value option and continues to be obligated under the same forward loan sales contract entered into at inception of the rate lock commitment.

The derivative portfolio also includes derivative financial instruments not included in hedge relationships. These derivatives consist of interest rate swaps used for interest rate management purposes and derivatives executed with commercial banking customers to facilitate their interest rate management strategies. For derivatives that are not designated in a hedge relationship, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings in the same period as the change in fair value. Gains and losses on other derivative financial instruments are included in noninterest income and noninterest expense, respectively.

The following tables disclose the derivative instruments’ location on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the notional amount and fair value of those instruments at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Derivative contracts involve the risk of dealing with both bank customers and institutional derivative counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. Credit risk arises from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. United’s exposure is limited to the replacement value of the contracts rather than the notional amount of the contract. The Company’s agreements generally contain provisions that limit the unsecured exposure up to an agreed upon threshold. Additionally, the Company attempts to minimize credit risk through certain approval processes established by management.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

United determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established by ASC Topic 820, which also clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect United’s market assumptions.

Table of Contents

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy, based on these two types of inputs, are as follows:


Level 1		-		Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, United looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities whenever possible and classifies such items in Level 1. When identical assets and liabilities are ~~not~~0t traded in active markets, United looks to market observable data for similar assets and liabilities and classifies such items as Level 2. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are ~~not~~0t actively traded in observable markets and United must use alternative valuation techniques using unobservable inputs to determine a fair value and classifies such items as Level 3. For assets and liabilities that are ~~not~~0t actively traded, the fair value measurement is based primarily upon estimates that require significant judgment. Therefore, the results may ~~not~~0t be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there are inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the results of current or future values. The level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant in the fair value measurement.

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the following describes the valuation techniques used by United to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Securities available for sale and equity securities

: Securities available for sale and equity securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Using a market approach valuation methodology, third party vendors compile prices based on observable market inputs, which include benchmark yields, reported trades, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, and “To Be Announced” prices (Level 2). Management internally reviews the fair values provided by third party vendors on a monthly basis. Management also performs a quarterly price testing analysis at the individual security level which compares the pricing provided by the third party vendors to an independent pricing source’s valuation of the same securities. Variances that are deemed to be material are reviewed by management. Additionally, to further assess the reliability of the information received from third party vendors, management obtains documentation from third party vendors related to the sources, methodologies, and inputs utilized in valuing securities classified as Level 2. Management analyzes this information to ensure the underlying assumptions appear reasonable. Management also obtains an independent service auditor’s report from third party vendors to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate controls are in place over the valuation process. Upon completing its review of the pricing from third party vendors at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, management determined that the prices provided by its third party pricing source were reasonable and in line with management’s expectations for the market values of these securities. Therefore, prices obtained from third party vendors that did not reflect forced liquidation or distressed sales were not adjusted by management at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. Management utilizes a number of factors to determine if a market is inactive, all of which may require a significant level of judgment. Factors that management considers include: a significant widening of the

bid-ask

spread, a considerable decline in the volume and level of trading activity in the instrument, a

Table of Contents

significant variance in prices among market participants, and a significant reduction in the level of observable inputs. Any securities available for sale not valued based upon quoted market prices or third party pricing models that consider observable market data are considered Level 3. Currently, United considers its valuation of available for sale Trup Cdos as Level 3. Based upon management’s review of the market conditions for Trup Cdos, it was determined that an income approach valuation technique (present value technique) that maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs

and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs is the most representative measurement technique for these securities. The present value technique discounts expected future cash flows of a security to arrive at a present value. Management considers the following items when calculating the appropriate discount rate: the implied rate of return when the market was last active, changes in the implied rate of return as markets moved from very active to inactive, recent changes in credit ratings, and recent activity showing that the market has built in increased liquidity and credit premiums. Management’s internal credit review of each security was also factored in to determine the appropriate discount rate. The credit review considered each security’s collateral, subordination, excess spread, priority of claims, principal and interest.

Loans held for sale

: For residential mortgage loans sold in the mortgage banking segment, the loans closed are recorded at fair value ~~using~~as management has elected the fair value option which is measured using valuations from investors for loans with similar characteristics adjusted for the Company’s actual sales experience versus the investor’s indicated pricing. These valuations fall into the Level 3 category. The unobservable input is the Company’s historical sales prices. The range of historical sales prices increased the investor’s indicated pricing by a range of ~~0.02%~~0.25% to ~~0.52%~~0.59% with a weighted average increase of ~~0.35%~~0.40%.

Derivatives

: United utilizes interest rate swaps to hedge exposure to interest rate risk and variability of cash flows associated to changes in the underlying interest rate of the hedged item. These hedging interest rate swaps are classified as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. United’s derivative portfolio also includes derivative financial instruments not included in hedge relationships. These derivatives consist of interest rate swaps used for interest rate management purposes and derivatives executed with commercial banking customers to facilitate their interest rate management strategies. United utilizes third-party vendors for derivative valuation purposes. These vendors determine the appropriate fair value based on a net present value calculation of the cash flows related to the interest rate swaps using primarily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves (Level 2). Valuation adjustments to derivative fair values for liquidity and credit risk are also taken into consideration, as well as the likelihood of default by United and derivative counterparties, the net counterparty exposure and the remaining maturities of the positions. Values obtained from third party vendors are typically not adjusted by management. Management internally reviews the derivative values provided by third party vendors on a quarterly basis. All derivative values are tested for reasonableness by management utilizing a net present value calculation.

For a fair value hedge, the fair value of the interest rate swap is recognized on the balance sheet as either a freestanding asset or liability with a corresponding adjustment to the hedged financial instrument. Subsequent adjustments due to changes in the fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a fair value hedge are offset in current period earnings either in interest income or interest expense depending on the nature of the hedged financial instrument. For a cash flow hedge, the fair value of the interest rate swap is recognized on the balance sheet as either a freestanding asset or liability with a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity, net of tax. Subsequent adjustments due to changes in the fair value of a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge are offset to other comprehensive income, net of tax. The portion of a hedge that is ineffective is recognized immediately in earnings.

The Company records its interest rate lock commitments and forward loan sales commitments at fair value determined as the amount that would be required to settle each of these derivative financial instruments at the balance sheet date. In the normal course of business, George Mason enters into contractual interest rate lock commitments to extend credit to borrowers with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrowers

“lock-in”

a specified interest rate within the timeframes established by the mortgage companies. All borrowers are evaluated for credit

Table of Contents

worthiness prior to the extension of the commitment. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the interest rate lock by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to the investor. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, George Mason enters into either a forward sales contract to sell loans to investors when using best efforts or a TBA mortgage-backed security under mandatory delivery. As TBA mortgage-backed securities are actively traded in an open market, TBA mortgage-backed securities

fall into a Level 12 category. The forward sales contracts lock in an interest rate and price for the sale of loans similar to the specific rate lock commitments. Under the Company’s best efforts model, the rate lock commitments to borrowers and the forward sales contracts to investors through to the date the loan closes are undesignated derivatives and accordingly, are marked to fair value through earnings. These valuations fall into a Level 2 category. For residential mortgage loans sold in the mortgage banking segment, the interest rate lock commitments are recorded at fair value which is measured using valuations from investors for loans with similar characteristics adjusted for the Company’s actual sales experience versus the investor’s indicated pricing. These valuations fall into the Level 3 category. The unobservable input is the Company’s historical sales prices. The range of historical sales prices increased the investor’s indicated pricing by a range of ~~0.02%~~0.25% to ~~0.52%~~0.59% with a weighted average increase of ~~0.35%~~0.40%.

For interest rate swap derivatives that are not designated in a hedge relationship, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings in the same period as the change in the fair value. Unrealized gains and losses due to changes in the fair value of other derivative financial instruments not in hedge relationship are included in noninterest income and noninterest expense, respectively.

The following tables present the balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The following describes the valuation techniques used by United to measure certain financial assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.

Loans held for sale

: Loans held for sale within the community banking segment that are delivered on a best efforts basis are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, United records any fair value adjustments for these loans held for sale on a nonrecurring basis. No

NaN

nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. Gains and losses on sale of loans are recorded within income from mortgage banking activities on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Impaired Loans

: Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. Impairment is measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows from the loan discounted at the loan’s effective rate and the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. Fair value is measured using a market approach based on the value of the collateral securing

Table of Contents

the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using comparable property sales (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the real estate property is over two years old, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’ financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). For impaired loans, a specific reserve is established through the Allowance for Loan Losses, if necessary, by estimating the fair value of the underlying collateral on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for credit losses expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

OREO

: OREO consists of real estate acquired in foreclosure or other settlement of loans. Such assets are carried on the balance sheet at the lower of the investment in the assets or the fair value of the assets less estimated selling costs. Fair value is determined by one of two market approach methods depending on whether the property has been vacated and an appraisal can be conducted. If the property has yet to be vacated and thus an appraisal cannot be performed, a Brokers Price Opinion (i.e. BPO), is obtained. A BPO represents a best estimate valuation performed by a realtor based on knowledge of current property values and a visual examination of the exterior condition of the property. Once the property is subsequently vacated, a formal appraisal is obtained and the recorded asset value appropriately adjusted. On the other hand, if the OREO property has been vacated and an appraisal can be conducted, the fair value of the property is determined based upon the appraisal using a market approach. An authorized independent appraiser conducts appraisals for United. Appraisals for property other than ongoing construction are based on consideration of comparable property sales (Level 2). In contrast, valuation of ongoing construction assets requires some degree of professional judgment. In conducting an appraisal for ongoing construction property, the appraiser develops two appraised amounts: an “as is” appraised value and a “completed” value. Based on professional judgment and their knowledge of the particular situation, management determines the appropriate fair value to be utilized for such property (Level 3). As a matter of policy, valuations are reviewed at least annually and appraisals are generally updated on a

bi-annual

basis with values lowered as necessary.

Intangible Assets:

For United, intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or sooner if indicators of impairment exist. Goodwill impairment would be defined as the difference between the recorded value of goodwill (i.e. book value) and the implied fair value of goodwill. In determining the implied fair value of goodwill for purposes of evaluating goodwill impairment, United determines the fair value of the reporting unit using a market approach and compares the fair value to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a step two test is performed whereby the implied fair value is computed by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets from the fair value of the reporting unit. Core deposit intangibles relate to the estimated value of the deposit base of acquired institutions. Management reviews core deposit intangible assets on an annual basis, or sooner if indicators of impairment exist, and evaluates changes in facts and circumstances that may indicate impairment in the carrying value. No

other fair value measurement of intangible assets was made during the first ~~three~~nine months of 2019 and 2018.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by United in estimating its fair value disclosures for other financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair values.

Securities held to maturity and other securities

: The estimated fair values of securities held to maturity are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that considers observable market data. Any securities held to maturity, not valued based upon the methods above, are valued based on a discounted cash flow methodology using appropriately adjusted discount rates reflecting nonperformance and liquidity risks. Other securities consist mainly of shares of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock that do not have readily determinable fair values and are carried at cost.

Loans

: The fair values of certain mortgage loans (e.g.,

one-to-four

family residential), credit card loans, and other consumer loans are based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair values of other loans (e.g., commercial real estate and rental property mortgage loans, commercial and industrial loans, financial institution loans and agricultural loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar creditworthiness, which include adjustments for liquidity concerns. For acquired impaired loans, fair value is assumed to equal United’s carrying value, which represents the present value of expected future principal and interest cash flows, as adjusted for any Allowance for Loan Losses recorded for these loans.

Table of Contents

Deposits

: The fair values of demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, regular savings and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values of fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Short-term Borrowings:

The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements and any other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.

Long-term Borrowings:

The fair values of United’s Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and trust preferred securities are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on United’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Summary of Fair Values for All Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values of United’s financial instruments, including those measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, are summarized below:

13. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

On May 18, 2016, United’s shareholders approved the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2016 LTI Plan). The 2016 LTI Plan became effective as of May 18, 2016. An award granted under the 2016 LTI Plan may consist of any

non-qualified

stock options or incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units or other-stock-based award. These awards all relate to the common stock of United. The maximum number of shares of United common stock which may be issued under the 2016 LTI Plan is 1,700,000. The 2016 LTI Plan will be administered by a board committee appointed by United’s Board of Directors (the Board). Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the Committee) shall administer the 2016 LTI Plan. Any and all shares may be issued in respect of any of the types of Awards, provided that (1) the aggregate number of shares that may be issued in respect of restricted stock awards, and restricted stock unit awards which are settled in shares is 500,000, and (2) the aggregate number of shares that may be issued pursuant to stock options is 1,200,000. The shares to be offered under the 2016 LTI Plan may be authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. The maximum number of options and SARs, in the aggregate, which may be awarded to any individual key employee during any calendar year is 100,000. The maximum number of stock options and SARs, in the aggregate, which may be awarded to any

non-employee

director during any calendar year is 10,000. The maximum number of shares of restricted stock or shares subject to a restricted stock units award that may be granted during any calendar year is 50,000 shares to any individual key employee and 5,000 shares to any individual

non-employee

director. Subject to certain change in control provisions, the 2016 LTI Plan provides that awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units will vest as the Committee determines in the award agreement, provided that no awards will vest sooner than 1/3 per year over the first three anniversaries of the award.

Restricted Stock

Under the 2011 LTI Plan, United may award restricted common shares to key employees and

non-employee

directors. Restricted shares granted to participants have a ~~four-year~~four-year time-based vesting period. Recipients of restricted shares do not pay any consideration to United for the shares, have the right to vote all shares subject to such grant and receive all dividends with respect to such shares, whether or not the shares have vested. Presently, these nonvested participating securities have an immaterial impact on diluted earnings per share.

14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

United has a defined benefit retirement plan covering qualified employees. Pension benefits are based on years of service and the average of the employee’s highest five consecutive plan years of basic compensation paid during the ten plan years preceding the date of determination. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date, but also for those expected to be earned in the future. During the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018, United made discretionary contributions of $7,000. NoNaN discretionary contributions were made during the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019.

In September of 2007, after a recommendation by United’s Pension Committee and approval by United’s Board of Directors, the United Bankshares, Inc. Pension Plan (the Plan) was amended to change the participation rules. The decision to change the participation rules for the Plan followed current industry trends, as many large and medium size companies had taken similar steps. The amendment provides that employees hired on or after October 1, 2007, will not be eligible to participate in the Plan. However, new employees will be eligible to participate in United’s Savings and Stock Investment 401(k) plan. This change had no impact on current employees hired prior to October 1, 2007 as they will continue to participate in the Plan, with no change in benefit provisions, and will continue to be eligible to participate in United’s Savings and Stock Investment 401(k) plan.

18. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Variable interest entities (VIEs) are entities that either have a total equity investment that is insufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or whose equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest (i.e., ability to make significant decisions, through voting rights, right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, and obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity). VIEs can be structured as corporations, trusts, partnerships, or other legal entities. United’s business practices include relationships with certain VIEs. For United, the business purpose of these relationships primarily consists of funding activities in the form of issuing trust preferred securities.

Table of Contents

United currently sponsors ~~fourteen~~14 statutory business trusts that were created for the purpose of raising funds that originally qualified for Tier I regulatory capital. As previously discussed, these trusts now are considered Tier II regulatory capital. These trusts, of which several were acquired through bank acquisitions, issued or participated in pools of trust preferred capital securities to third-party investors with the proceeds invested in junior subordinated debt securities of United. The Company, through a small capital contribution, owns 100% of the voting equity shares of each trust. The assets, liabilities, operations, and cash flows of each trust are solely related to the issuance, administration, and repayment of the preferred equity securities held by third-party investors. United fully and unconditionally guarantees the obligations of each trust and is obligated to redeem the junior subordinated debentures upon maturity.

United does not consolidate these trusts as it is not the primary beneficiary of these entities because United’s wholly owned and indirect wholly owned statutory trust subsidiaries do not have a controlling financial interest in the VIEs. A controlling financial interest is present when an enterprise has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The enterprise with a controlling financial interest, known as the primary beneficiary, consolidates the VIE. `

United, through its banking subsidiary, also makes limited partner equity investments in various low income housing and community development partnerships sponsored by independent third-parties. United invests in these partnerships to either realize tax credits on its consolidated federal income tax return or for purposes of earning a return on its investment. These partnerships are considered VIEs as the limited partners lack a controlling financial interest in the entities through their inability to make decisions that have a significant effect on the operations and success of the partnerships. United’s limited partner interests in these entities is immaterial, however; these partnerships are not consolidated as United is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

The following table summarizes quantitative information about United’s significant involvement in unconsolidated VIEs:

19. SEGMENT INFORMATION

United operates in ~~two~~2 business segments: community banking and mortgage banking. Through its community banking segment, United offers a full range of products and services through various delivery channels. In particular, the community banking segment includes both commercial and consumer lending and provides customers with such products as commercial loans, real estate loans, business financing and consumer loans. In addition, this segment

provides customers with several choices of deposit products including demand deposit accounts, savings accounts and certificates of deposit as well as investment and financial advisory services to businesses and individuals, including financial planning, retirement/estate planning, and investment management. The mortgage banking segment engages primarily in the origination and acquisition of residential mortgages for sale into the secondary market though George Mason.

The community banking segment provides the mortgage banking segment (George Mason) with short-term funds to originate mortgage loans through a warehouse line of credit and charges the mortgage banking segment interest based on the

30-day

LIBOR rate. These transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process.

The Company does not have any operating segments other than those reported. The “Other” category consists of financial information not directly attributable to a specific segment, including interest income from investments and net securities gains or losses of parent companies and their

non-banking

subsidiaries, interest expense related to subordinated notes of unconsolidated subsidiaries as well as the elimination of

non-segment

related intercompany transactions such as management fees. The “Other” represents an overhead function rather than an operating segment.

Information about the reportable segments and reconciliation of this information to the consolidated financial statements at and for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

Item 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Congress passed the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 to encourage corporations to provide investors with information about the company’s anticipated future financial performance, goals, and strategies. The act provides a safe harbor for such disclosure, in other words, protection from unwarranted litigation if actual results are not the same as management expectations.

United desires to provide its shareholders with sound information about past performance and future trends. Consequently, any forward-looking statements contained in this report, in a report incorporated by reference to this report, or made by management of United in this report, in any other reports and filings, in press releases and in oral statements, involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those contained in or implied by United’s statements for a variety of factors including, but not limited to: changes in economic conditions; business conditions in the banking industry; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success and timing of business strategies; the nature and extent of governmental actions and reforms; and rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards.

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion and analysis presents the significant changes in financial condition and the results of operations of United and its subsidiaries for the periods indicated below. This discussion and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes to unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of United Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated. Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, but prior to the date these financial statements were issued, for potential recognition or disclosure required in these financial statements.

Table of Contents

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this document.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

United adopted the new accounting standard for leases effective January 1, 2019. Therefore, beginning in fiscal year 2019, our financial results reflect the adoption of this standard. This new standard impacted our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 by increasing total assets by ~~$63.12~~$60.32 million and total liabilities by ~~$66.87~~$63.99 million. Prior periods were not restated. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion.

USE OF
NON-GAAP
FINANCIAL MEASURES

This discussion and analysis contains a certain financial ~~measure~~measures that isare not recognized under GAAP. Under SEC Regulation G, public companies making disclosures containing financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP must also disclose, along with each

“non-GAAP”

financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the

non-GAAP

financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing the

non-GAAP

financial measure.

Generally, United has presented ~~this~~a

non-GAAP

financial measure because it believes that this measure provides meaningful additional information to assist in the evaluation of United’s results of operations or financial position. Presentation of ~~this~~a

non-GAAP

financial measure is consistent with how United’s management evaluates its performance internally and this

non-GAAP

financial measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the banking industry. Specifically, this discussion contains certain references to a financial ~~measure~~measures identified as

tax-equivalent

(FTE) net interest ~~income.~~income and return on average tangible equity. Management believes ~~this~~these

non-GAAP

financial ~~measure, if significant,~~measures to be helpful in understanding United’s results of operations or financial position.

Net interest income is presented in this discussion on a

tax-equivalent

basis. The

tax-equivalent

basis adjusts for the

tax-favored

status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is a

non-GAAP

measure, United’s management believes this measure is more widely used within the financial services industry and provides better comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and

tax-exempt

sources. United uses this measure to monitor net interest income performance and to manage its balance sheet composition.

Average tangible equity is calculated as GAAP total shareholders’ equity minus total intangible assets. Tangible equity can thus be considered the most conservative valuation of the company. When considering net income, a return on average tangible equity can be calculated. Management provides a return on average equity to facilitate the understanding of as well as to assess the quality and composition of United’s capital structure. By removing the effect of intangible assets that result from merger and acquisition activity, the “permanent” items of shareholders’ equity are presented. This measure, along with others, is used by management to analyze capital adequacy and performance.

However, this

non-GAAP

information should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Where the

non-GAAP

financial measure is used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as reconciliation to that comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing the

non-GAAP

financial measure, can be found within this discussion and analysis. Investors should recognize that United’s presentation of this

non-GAAP

financial measure might not be comparable to a similarly titled measure at other companies.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of United conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments, which are reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. United’s critical accounting policies involving the significant judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 were unchanged from the policies disclosed in United’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2018 within the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

FINANCIAL CONDITION

United’s total assets as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 were ~~$19.65~~$19.75 billion, which was an increase of ~~$394.64~~$500.96 million or ~~2.05%~~2.60% from December 31, 2018. The increase was mainly due to an increase of ~~$152.26~~$211.21 million or ~~14.92%~~1.57% in ~~cash and cash equivalents~~portfolio loans, an increase of $162.35 million or 64.98% in loans held for sale, and an increase of ~~$150.48~~$129.59 million or ~~1.12%~~5.09% in ~~portfolio loans. Investment securities increased $48.86 million or 1.92%.~~investment securities. In addition, United adopted the new accounting standard for leases effective January 1, 2019, as previously mentioned, resulting in a ~~$63.12~~$60.32 million operating lease

right-of-use

asset as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. Partially offsetting these increases in total assets iswas a ~~$4.08~~$44.24 million or ~~1.63%~~4.34% decrease in ~~loans held for sale~~cash and ~~$18.87~~cash equivalents and a $14.44 million or ~~4.13%~~3.16% decrease in other assets. Total liabilities increased ~~$359.37~~$398.25 million or ~~2.25%~~2.49% from

year-end

2018. Deposits increased ~~$164.65~~$100.66 million or ~~1.18%~~less than 1%. Borrowings increased ~~$116.23~~$187.83 million or ~~6.28%~~10.15% while accrued expenses and other liabilities increased ~~$11.55~~$45.38 million or ~~7.58%~~29.79%. As a result of the adoption of the leases accounting standard, United also recorded a ~~$66.87~~$63.99 million operating lease liability as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. Shareholders’ equity increased ~~$35.27~~$102.72 million or ~~1.08%~~3.16%.

The following discussion explains in more detail the changes in financial condition by major category.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 ~~increased $152.26~~decreased $44.24 million or ~~14.92%~~4.34% from

year-end

2018. ~~Of this total increase, cash and due from banks increased $13.89 million while~~In particular, interest-bearing deposits with other banks ~~increased $138.37~~decreased $84.38 million or ~~16.64%~~10.14% as United placed ~~excess~~less cash in an interest-bearing account with the Federal Reserve. Partially offsetting this decrease in interest-bearing deposits is a $40.12 million or 21.35% increase in cash and due from banks. Federal funds sold ~~were flat.~~increased $14 thousand or 1.74%. During the first ~~three~~nine months of 2019, net cash of ~~$93.25~~$90.96 million and ~~$234.94~~$151.65 million were provided by operating and financing activities, respectively, while net cash of ~~$175.92~~$286.85 million was used in investing activities. See the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for data on cash and cash equivalents provided and used in operating, investing and financing activities for the first ~~three~~nine months of 2019 and 2018.

Securities

Total investment securities at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 increased ~~$48.86~~$129.59 million or ~~1.92%~~5.09% from

year-end

2018. Securities available for sale increased ~~$47.02~~$115.06 million or ~~2.01%~~4.92%. This change in securities available for sale reflects ~~$196.68~~$573.83 million in sales, maturities and calls of securities, ~~$211.22~~$630.16 million in purchases, and an increase of ~~$21.89~~$48.17 million in market value. The majority of the purchase activity was related to corporate securities which were ~~all~~almost exclusively issued by investment grade rated, single-name issuers, and have maturity dates of less than five years. Securities held to maturity declined ~~$11.51~~$18.53 million or ~~57.54%~~92.64% from

year-end

2018 due mainly to the transfer of $11.54 million of investment securities to available for sale securities upon the adoption of ASUNo.

2017-12.

Equity securities were ~~$9.92~~$8.91 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$187~~$820 thousand or ~~1.92%~~8.42% due mainly to ~~an increase in the fair value.~~net sales. Other investment securities increased ~~$13.17~~$33.88 million or ~~7.44%~~19.14% from

year-end

2018 due mainly to ~~the purchase~~purchases of ~~$7.01 million in~~an equity security without a readily determinable fair value, investment tax credits, and FHLB stock.

During the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019, United ~~didn’t recognize any~~recognized other-than-temporary impairment totaling $9 thousand on one investment ~~securities. Management~~security. With the exception of this security, management does not believe that any other individual security with an unrealized loss as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 is other-than-temporarily impaired. United believes the decline in value resulted from changes in market interest rates, credit spreads and liquidity, not an adverse change in the expected contractual cash flows. Based on a review of each of the securities in the investment portfolio, management concluded that it was not probable that it would be unable to realize the cost basis investment and appropriate interest payments on such securities. United has the intent and the ability to hold these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature. However, United acknowledges that any impaired securities may be sold in future periods in response to significant, unanticipated changes in asset/liability management decisions, unanticipated future market movements or business plan changes.

Further information regarding the amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities, including remaining maturities as well as a more detailed discussion of management’s other-than-temporary impairment analysis, is presented in Note 2 to the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The ~~slight increase of $125 thousand~~decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased ~~$21.91~~$5.32 million while total interest expense increased ~~$21.79~~$12.18 million from the third quarter of 2018. Net interest income for the first nine months of 2019 was $436.64 which was a decrease of $5.30 million or 1.20% from the prior year’s first nine months. The decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $48.48 million while total interest expense increased $53.78 million from the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018.

These increases from 2018 were mainly due to additional income from mortgage banking activities. For the third quarter of 2019, noninterest expense increased $2.82 million or 3.02% from the third quarter of 2018 due mainly to an increase in employee compensation resulting from higher commissions expense from increased production and sales from mortgage banking activities. For the first nine months of 2019, noninterest expense increased $8.58 million or 3.09% from the first nine months of 2018 due primarily to penalties incurred during the second quarter of 2019 on the prepayment of FHLB advances.

The following discussion explains in more detail the results of operations by major category.

Business Segments

United operates in two business segments: community banking and mortgage banking.

Community Banking

Net income attributable to the community banking segment for the third quarter of 2019 was $63.57 million compared to net income of $69.13 million for the third quarter of 2018.

Net interest income decreased $6.16 million to $143.62 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $149.77 million for the same period of 2018. Net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 decreased from the third quarter of 2018 due mainly to an increase in the average cost of funds due to higher market interest rates and a decline in the average yield on earning assets due mainly to lower accretion on acquired loans. Provision for loan losses was $5.03 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to a provision of $4.81 million for the same period of 2018. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $18.70 million, which was flat from the $18.72 million recorded for the third quarter of 2018. Noninterest expense was $77.31 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $75.26 million for the same period of 2018. The increase of $2.06 million in noninterest expense was primarily attributable to increases in employee compensation, net occupancy expense, other real estate owned (OREO) expense and other expenses mainly related to the

write-off

of income tax credits partially offset by a decline in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance expense resulting from a small bank assessment credit.

Net income attributable to the community banking segment for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 was ~~$65.92~~$194.45 million compared to net income of ~~$66.45~~$200.84 million for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018.

Net interest income ~~of $145.89~~decreased $2.82 million to $442.02 million for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019, ~~was relatively flat from the $145.62~~compared to $444.84 million for the same period of ~~2018, increasing $269 thousand or less than 1%. Generally, net~~2018. Net interest income for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 ~~increased slightly~~decreased from the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018 due mainly to ~~a higher level of earning assets virtually offset by~~ an increase in the average cost of ~~funds.~~funds primarily as a result of higher market interest rates and a change in the mix of interest bearing liabilities. Provision for loan losses was ~~$5.00~~$15.45 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 compared to a provision of ~~$5.18~~$16.19 million for the same period of 2018. Noninterest income for the first nine months of 2019 increased ~~$918~~$794 thousand to $54.75 million for the first nine months of 2019 as compared to $53.95 million for the first nine months of 2018. The increase was due mainly to increased fees from trust and brokerage services and higher income from bank-owned life insurance due to death benefits received in the first quarter of ~~2019 to $18.69 million as compared to $17.77~~2019. Noninterest expense was $235.61 million for the ~~first quarter of 2018. Noninterest expense was $75.99 million for the first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to ~~$72.49~~$224.24 million for the same period of 2018. The increase of ~~$3.50~~$11.37 million in noninterest expense was primarily attributable to penalties on the prepayment of FHLB advances, increases in employee compensation due mainly to higher employee incentives, OREO expense due to a decline in the fair values of OREO properties and other expense due to an increase in ~~Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)~~the

write-off

of income tax credits. Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in net occupancy expense due mainly to a decline in building rental expense, data processing fees due to lower fees under a new contract, FDIC insurance expense resulting from the small bank assessment credit, and employee benefits due mainly to ~~United’s banking subsidiary, United Bank, becoming~~ a ~~large institution and subject to increased assessment rates.~~

decline in pension expense.

Mortgage Banking

The mortgage banking segment reported net income of ~~$1.04~~$3.40 million and $8.28 million for the third quarter and the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019, respectively, as compared to a net ~~loss~~losses of ~~$2.42~~$845 thousand and $1.33 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of ~~2018.~~2018, respectively. Noninterest income, which consists mainly of realized and unrealized gains associated with the fair value of commitments and loans held for sale, was ~~$16.11~~$24.33 million and $63.94 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 as compared to ~~$14.88~~$16.48 million and $54.83 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018. Noninterest expense ~~decreased $3.54~~was $20.26 million and $53.87 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 ~~to $14.84 million~~ as compared ~~to $18.38~~$17.96 million and $57.57 million for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018. Noninterest expense consists mainly of salaries, commissions and benefits of mortgage segment employees.

The following discussion explains in more detail the consolidated results of operations by major category.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the primary component of United’s earnings. It is the difference between interest income from earning assets and interest expense incurred to fund these assets. Net interest income is impacted by changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in market interest rates. Such changes, and their impact on net interest income in 2019 and 2018, are presented below.

Net interest income for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 was ~~$144.17~~$141.92 million, which was ~~relatively flat~~a decrease of $6.86 million or 4.61% from the first quarter of 2018, increasing $125 thousand or less than 1%. The $125 thousand increase in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $21.91 million while total interest expense increased $21.79 million from the first quarter of 2018. On a linked-quarter basis, net interest income for the first quarter of 2019 decreased $2.54 million or 1.73% from the fourththird quarter of 2018. The ~~$2.54~~$6.86 million decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased ~~$1.60~~$5.32 million while total interest expense increased ~~$4.13~~$12.18 million from the ~~fourth~~third quarter of 2018.

Net interest income for the first nine months of 2019 was $436.64 million, which was a decrease of $5.30 million or 1.20% from the first nine months of 2018. The $5.30 million decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $48.48 million while total interest expense increased $53.78 million from the first nine months of 2018. On a linked-quarter basis, net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $8.64 million or 5.74% from the second quarter of 2019. The $8.64 million decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income decreased $8.89 million while total interest expense only decreased $259 thousand from the second quarter of 2019.

Generally, interest income for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 increased from the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018 due to a higher level of earning assets. The increase in interest expense for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 from the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018 was due to higher market interest ~~rates.~~rates on interest-bearing liabilities. For the purpose of this remaining discussion, net interest income is presented on a

tax-equivalent

basis to provide a comparison among all types of interest earning assets. The

tax-equivalent

basis adjusts for the

tax-favored

status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is a

non-GAAP

measure, United’s management believes this measure is more widely used within the financial services industry and provides better comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and

tax-exempt

sources. United uses this measure to monitor net interest income performance and to manage its balance sheet composition.

Tax-equivalent

net interest income, which adjusts for the

tax-favored

status of income from certain loans and investments, for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 was ~~$145.16~~$142.83 million, which was ~~flat~~a decrease of $6.99 million or 4.67% from the ~~first~~third quarter of 2018 ~~increasing $14 thousand or less than 1%~~ due mainly to ~~an increase in average earning assets mostly offset by~~ an increase in the average cost of ~~funds. Average earning assets for~~funds and a decline in the first quarter of 2019 increased $667.22 million or 4.10% from the first quarter of 2018 due mainly to increases of $538.44 million or 4.11% in average net loans and $369.52 million or 16.96% in average investment securities. Average short-term investments decreased $240.74 million or 24.57%. In addition, the average yield on earning ~~assets for the first quarter~~assets. The average cost of ~~2019~~funds increased 3537 basis points from the ~~first quarter of 2018 due to higher market rates. Mostly offsetting these increases totax-equivalent~~ ~~net interest income for the first quarter of 2019 was an increase of 73 basis points in the average cost of funds as compared to the first~~third quarter of 2018 due to higher market interest rates. ~~In addition,~~The average yield on earning assets declined 4 basis points from the third quarter of 2018 due in large part to a decline in loan accretion on acquired loans of $4.39 million or 38.00%. Loan accretion on acquired loans was ~~$8.54~~$7.17 million and ~~$10.77~~$11.56 million for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 and 2018, ~~respectively, decreasing $2.22~~respectively. Partially offsetting these decreases to

tax-equivalent

net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was an increase in average earning assets of $609.43 million or ~~20.64%~~3.64%. The increase in average earning assets was due mainly to increases of $365.29 million or 15.99% and $325.05 million or 2.40% in average investment securities and average loans, respectively. The net interest margin of ~~3.46%~~3.27% for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 was a decrease of 1529 basis points from the net interest margin of ~~3.61%~~3.56% for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2018.

~~On a linked-quarter basis,~~

Tax-equivalent

net interest income for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 ~~decreased $2.54~~was $439.52 million, which was a decrease of $5.69 million or ~~1.73%~~1.28% from the fourth quarter of 2018. The $2.54 million decrease in net interest income occurred because total interest income increased $1.60 million while total interest expense increased $4.13 million from the fourth quarter of 2018. United’s~~tax-equivalent~~ ~~net interest income for the~~ first ~~quarter of 2019 decreased $2.60 million or 1.76% from the fourth quarter~~nine months of 2018 due mainly to an increase in the average cost of funds. The average cost of funds for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 increased 1557 basis points from the ~~fourth quarter of 2018 due mainly to higher market interest rates. Average earning assets for the~~ first quarter of 2019 were relatively flat from the fourth quarter of 2018, increasing $131.20 million or less than 1%. In particular, average net loans and average investments increased $161.55 million or 1.20%

and $63.53 million or 2.56%, respectively, while average short-term investments decreased $93.89 million or 11.27% for the linked-quarter. The average yield on earning assets increased 8 basis points from the fourth quarternine months of 2018 due to higher market interest rates and a change in the mix of interest bearing liabilities. Partially offsetting these decreases to

tax-equivalent

net interest income for the first nine months of 2019 were increases in average earning assets and the average yield on those average earning assets. For the first nine months of 2019, average earning assets increased $687.26 million or 4.17% from the first nine months of 2018 due mainly to increases of $400.86 million or 3.00% in average net loans and $352.58 million or 15.65% in average investment securities. Average short-term investments decreased $66.18 million or 7.82%. The average yield on earning assets for the first nine months of 2019 increased 20 basis points from the first nine months of 2018 due to higher market rates. Loan accretion on acquired loans was $30.16 million and $34.38 million for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, respectively, decreasing $4.22 million or 12.27%. The net interest margin of ~~3.46%~~3.42% for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 ~~decreased 4~~was a decrease of 19 basis points from the net interest margin of ~~3.50%~~3.61% for the ~~fourth~~first nine months of 2018.

On a linked-quarter basis, United’s

tax-equivalent

net interest income for the third quarter of ~~2018.~~

2019 decreased $8.70 million or 5.74% from the second quarter of 2019 as well due to a decrease in the average yield on earning assets. The average yield on earning assets for the third quarter of 2019 decreased 29 basis points from the second quarter of 2019 due to a decrease of $7.28 million in loan accretion on acquired loans. Loan accretion on acquired loans was $7.17 million and $14.45 million for the third quarter and second quarter of 2019, respectively. Partially offsetting the decline in the average yield on earning assets was a decrease of 2 basis points in the average cost of funds due to change in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities. Average earning assets were relatively flat for the quarter, increasing $158.22 million or less than 1% from the second quarter of 2019 as average net loans were also relatively flat, increasing $63.85 million or less than 1%. Average investment securities increased $34.49 million or 1.32% and average short-term investments increased $59.88 million or 7.77% for the linked quarter. The net interest margin of 3.27% for the third quarter of 2019 decreased 26 basis points from the net interest margin of 3.53% for the second quarter of 2019.

Provision for Loan Losses

For the quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and 2018, the provision for loan losses was ~~$5.00~~$5.03 million and ~~$5.18~~$4.81 million, respectively. The provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018 was $15.45 million and $16.19 million, respectively. Net charge-offs were ~~$4.81~~$4.34 million for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 as compared to net charge-offs of ~~$5.15~~$5.00 million for the same quarter in 2018. Net charge-offs for the first nine months of 2019 were $15.05 million as compared to $15.88 million for the first nine months of 2018. These lower amounts of provision expense and net charge-offs for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 compared to the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018 were due to ~~a reduction~~the recognition of losses on several large commercial relationships in ~~the amount of specific allocations required for impaired loans and valuation improvements recognized for the Company’s purchased credit impaired loans.~~2018. On a linked-quarter basis, the provision

Table of Contents

for loan losses decreased ~~$827~~$384 thousand while net charge-offs decreased ~~$1.25~~$1.57 million from the ~~fourth~~second quarter of ~~2018. These decreases were~~2019. The decrease in the provision for loan losses was due to ~~improved collateral positions~~reduced general allocation requirements for several portfolio segments due to improvements in historical loss rates, reductions in the ~~Company’s originated loans as well as purchased credit impaired loans.~~loss emergence periods and changes in the calculated qualitative adjustments factors. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans ~~were 0.14%~~was 0.13% and 0.15% for the third quarter and first ~~quarter~~nine months of ~~2019. This ratio compares favorably to United’s most recently reported Federal Reserve peer group banking companies’ net charge-offs to average loans percentage of 0.22% for the year of 2018.~~

2019, respectively.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, nonperforming loans were ~~$135.75~~$140.28 million or ~~1.00%~~1.03% of loans, net of unearned income compared to nonperforming loans of $142.82 million or 1.06% of loans, net of unearned income at December 31, 2018. The components of nonperforming loans include: 1) nonaccrual loans, 2) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal, but have not been put on a nonaccrual basis and 3) loans whose terms have been restructured for economic or legal reasons due to financial difficulties of the borrowers.

Loans past due 90 days or more were ~~$15.57~~$9.84 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, a decrease of $5.01 million or 33.74% from $14.85 million at

year-end

2018. This decrease was primarily due to transfer of a large nonperforming commercial relationship to nonaccrual status as well as renewal of administratively delinquent loans outstanding at

year-end.

At September 30, 2019, nonaccrual loans were $69.88 million, an increase of $1.34 million or 1.96% from $68.54 million at

year-end

2018. This increase was due to the transfer to nonaccrual status of a large nonperforming relationship while the borrower awaits settlement of a lawsuit. Restructured loans were $60.56 million at September 30, 2019, an increase of ~~$721 thousand or 4.85% from $14.85 million atyear-end~~ ~~2018. This increase was primarily due to a significant matured loan that is in the process of being renewed. At March 31, 2019, nonaccrual loans were $63.40 million, a decrease of $5.14~~$1.13 million or ~~7.50% from $68.54 million atyear-end~~ 2018. This decrease was due to repayment of a significant nonaccrual relationship in the first quarter of 2019. Restructured loans were $56.78 million at March 31, 2019, a decrease of $2.65 million or 4.45%1.91% from $59.43 million at

year-end

2018. ~~The decline was mainly due to repayments.~~Eleven loans totaling $11.66 million were restructured during the first nine months of 2019. Partially offsetting these new restructured loans were repayments on previously restructured loans as well as partial charge-offs of the outstanding balance on two restructured relationships. The loss potential on these loans has been properly evaluated and allocated within the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and real estate acquired in foreclosure or other settlement of loans (OREO). Total nonperforming assets of ~~$153.22~~$158.65 million, including OREO of ~~$17.47~~$18.37 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, represented ~~0.78%~~0.80% of total assets.

Loans are designated as impaired when, in the opinion of management, the collection of principal and interest in accordance with the loan contract is doubtful. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, impaired loans were ~~$362.21~~$311.76 million, which was a decrease of ~~$27.32~~$77.77 million or ~~7.01%~~19.96% from the $389.53 million in impaired loans at December 31, 2018. This decrease was due mainly to ~~improvement in~~ the ~~risk rating for several significant relationships~~payoff of a large acquired loan relationship and ~~removal of the impaired designation warranted during the Company’s quarterly review process of impaired relationships as well as~~ a ~~reduction in purchased credit impaired loans.~~large originated loan relationship. Acquired impaired loans are accounted for under ASC Subtopic

310-30.

The recorded investment balance and the contractual principal balance of the acquired impaired loans were ~~$144.39~~$103.02 million and ~~$186.54~~$134.12 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $149.74 million and $195.71 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018. For the acquired impaired loans accounted for under ASC

310-30,

the difference between the contractually required payments due and the cash flows expected to be collected, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the

non-accretable

difference (the credit mark). The credit mark is not recognized in income. The remaining credit mark was ~~$37.36~~$30.60 million and $38.53 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. For further details regarding impaired loans, see Note 4 to the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

United maintains an allowance for loan losses and a reserve for lending-related commitments. The combined allowance for loan losses and reserve for lending-related commitments are referred to as the allowance for credit losses. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, the allowance for credit losses was ~~$78.35~~$78.87 million as compared to $78.09 million at December 31, 2018.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, the allowance for loan losses was ~~$76.89~~$77.10 million as compared to $76.70 million at December 31, 2018. As a percentage of loans, net of unearned income, the allowance for loan losses was 0.57% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and 0.57% at December 31, 2018. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans or coverage ratio was ~~56.64%~~54.96% and 53.71% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company’s detailed methodology and analysis indicated a minimal increase in the allowance for loan losses primarily because of the offsetting factors of changes within historical loss rates and reduced loss allocations on impaired loans.

Allocations are made for specific commercial loans based upon management’s estimate of the borrowers’ ability to repay and other factors impacting collectibility. Other commercial loans not specifically reviewed on an individual basis are evaluated based on historical loss percentages applied to loan pools that have been segregated by risk. Allocations for loans other than commercial loans are made based upon historical loss experience adjusted for current environmental conditions. The allowance for credit losses includes estimated probable inherent but unidentified losses within the portfolio due to uncertainties in economic conditions, delays in obtaining information, including unfavorable information about a borrower’s financial condition, the difficulty in identifying triggering events that correlate perfectly to subsequent loss rates, and risk factors that have not yet fully manifested themselves in loss allocation factors. In addition, a portion of the allowance accounts for the inherent imprecision in the allowance for credit losses analysis.

United’s review of the allowance for loan losses at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 produced increased allocations in ~~three~~two of the four loan categories. ~~The residential real estate allocation increased $574 thousand primarily due to an increase in allocations recognized for impaired loans.~~ The allocation related to the commercial, financial &and agricultural loan pool increased ~~$223 thousand~~$5.27 million due to an increase in historical loss rates as a result of aseveral significant~~charge-off~~ charge-offs recognized in the first ~~quarter~~nine months of ~~2019.~~2019 as well as downgrade of a $46.80 million relationship from a pass-rating to a special mention-rating with a higher loss rate. The consumer loan pool experienced ~~a minimal~~an increase of ~~$53~~$203 thousand due to an increase in outstanding loan balances. Offsetting these increases was a decrease in the residential real estate loan pool allocation of $3.14 million due to a decrease in historical loss rates as well as reduction in specific allocations associated with improved collateral position on a large relationship. The real estate construction and development loan pool allocation ~~of $806 thousand~~decreased $1.81 million primarily due to a decrease in historical loss rates. In summary, the overall level of the allowance for loan losses was relatively stable in comparison to

year-end

2018 as a result of offsetting factors within the portfolio as described above.

An allowance is established for probable credit losses on impaired loans via specific allocations. Nonperforming commercial loans and leases are regularly reviewed to identify impairment. A loan or lease is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts contractually due. Measuring impairment of a loan requires judgment and estimates, and the eventual outcomes may differ from those estimates. Impairment is measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows from the loan discounted at the loan’s effective rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. When the selected measure is less than the recorded investment in the loan, an impairment has occurred. The allowance for impaired loans was ~~$24.67~~$14.79 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and $28.36 million at December 31, 2018. In comparison to the prior

year-end,

this element of the allowance decreased by ~~$3.69~~$13.57 million primarily due to decreased specific allocations for commercial, financial & agricultural loans.

Management believes that the allowance for credit losses of ~~$78.35~~$78.88 million at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 is adequate to provide for probable losses on existing loans and lending-related commitments based on information currently available. United’s loan administration policies are focused on the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio in terms of loan approval and credit quality. The commercial loan portfolio is monitored for possible concentrations of credit in one or more industries. Management has lending limits as a percentage of capital per type of credit concentration in an effort to ensure adequate diversification within the portfolio. Most of United’s commercial loans are secured by real estate located in West Virginia, southeastern Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. It is the opinion of management that these commercial loans do not pose any unusual risks and that adequate consideration has been given to these loans in establishing the allowance for credit losses.

Management is not aware of any potential problem loans, trends or uncertainties, which it reasonably expects, will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources which have not been disclosed. Additionally, management has disclosed all known material credits, which cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment schedules.

Other Income

Other income consists of all revenues, which are not included in interest and fee income related to earning assets. Noninterest income has been and will continue to be an important factor for improving United’s profitability. Recognizing the importance, management continues to evaluate areas where noninterest income can be enhanced.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $42.22 million, an increase of $10.54 million or 33.26% from the third quarter of 2018. Noninterest income for the first nine months of 2019 was $113.24 million, which was an increase of $14.36 million or 14.52% from the first nine months of 2018.

Income from mortgage banking activities totaled $24.02 million for the third quarter of 2019 compared to $13.28 million for the same period of 2018. The increase for the third quarter of 2019 was ~~$31.22 million, which was flat from the first quarter of 2018, increasing $31 thousand or less than 1%. This slight increase was~~ due ~~mainly~~primarily to ~~an increase in income from bank-owned life insurance due to the recognition of death benefits in the first quarter of 2019.~~

Income from bank-owned life insurance for the first quarter of 2019 was $1.83 million, an increase of $573 thousand from the first quarter of 2018 due to the recognition of $600 thousand in death benefits in the first quarter of 2019.

~~Net losses on investment securities’ transactions were $159 thousand for the first quarter of 2019, a decline of $326 thousand from the first quarter of 2018.~~

~~Virtually offsetting these increases from the first quarter of 2018 was a decrease of $889 thousand in income from mortgage banking activities for the first quarter of 2019 due to decreased~~increased production and sales of mortgage loans in the secondary market by ~~George Mason.

On a linked-quarter basis, noninterest income for the third quarter of 2019 increased $2.43 million or 6.10% from the second quarter of 2019. The increase was due mainly to an increase of $2.32 million in income from mortgage banking activities due mainly to increased production and sales of mortgage loans in the secondary market by George Mason.

Other Expenses

Just as management continues to evaluate areas where noninterest income can be enhanced, it strives to improve the efficiency of its operations to reduce costs. Other expenses include all items of expense other than interest expense, the provision for loan losses, and income taxes. Noninterest expense increased $2.82 million or 3.02% for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 ~~was $89.43 million, which was a decrease of $1.03 million or 1.14% from the first quarter of 2018.~~

Employee compensation for the first quarter of 2019 decreased $1.89 million or 4.62% when compared to the first quarter of 2018. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in commissions expense related to the decrease in production and sales of mortgage loans at George Mason.

~~Net occupancy expense decreased $676 thousand or 7.17% for the first quarter of 2019, as~~ compared to the same period in 2018 due primarily to increased employee compensation. For the first nine months of 2019, noninterest expense increased $8.58 million or 3.09% from the first nine months of 2018 due mainly to the recognition of $5.11 million in penalties to prepay FHLB advances during the second quarter of 2019.

Employee compensation for the third quarter of 2019 increased $5.00 million or 12.11% from the third quarter of 2018. The increase in employee compensation for the third quarter of 2019 was due mainly to higher employee incentives. Employee compensation for the first nine months of 2019 increased $4.30 million or 3.43% from the first nine months of 2018 due mainly to higher employee incentives expense.

Employee benefits expense for first nine months of 2019 decreased $890 thousand or 3.23% from the same time period in 2018. The decrease was due primarily to a decline in pension expense.

Net occupancy expense decreased $575 thousand or 6.20% and $1.66 million or 5.98% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

For further details related to income taxes, see Note 15 of the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained within this document.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments, Contingent Liabilities and
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements

United has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments, that may require future cash payments. Please refer to United’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2018 for disclosures with respect to United’s fixed and determinable contractual obligations. There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business since

year-end

2018 in the specified contractual obligations disclosed in United’s Annual Report on Form

10-K.

United also enters into derivative contracts, mainly to protect against adverse interest rate movements on the value of certain assets or liabilities, under which it is required to either pay cash to or receive cash from counterparties depending on changes in interest rates. Derivative contracts are carried at fair value and not notional value on the consolidated balance sheet. Because the derivative contracts recorded on the balance sheet at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 do not present the amounts that may ultimately be paid under these contracts, they are excluded from the contractual obligations table in the 2018 Form

10-K

report. Further discussion of derivative instruments is presented in Note 11 to the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

United is a party to financial instruments with

off-balance-sheet

risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters of credit. United’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for the loan commitments and standby letters of credit is the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. United uses the same policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for

on-balance

sheet instruments. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Further discussion of

off-balance

sheet commitments is included in Note 10 to the unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Liquidity

In the opinion of management, United maintains liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and the credit needs of its customers. Like all banks, United depends upon its ability to renew maturing deposits and other liabilities on a daily basis and to acquire new funds in a variety of markets. A significant source of funds available to United is “core deposits”. Core deposits include certain demand deposits, statement and special savings and NOW accounts. These deposits are relatively stable, and they are the lowest cost source of funds available to United.

Table of Contents

Short-term borrowings have also been a significant source of funds. These include federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase as well as advances from the FHLB. Repurchase agreements represent funds which are obtained as the result of a competitive bidding process.

Liquid assets are cash and those items readily convertible to cash. All banks must maintain sufficient balances of cash and near-cash items to meet the

day-to-day

demands of customers and United’s cash needs. Other than cash and due from banks, the available for sale securities portfolio and maturing loans are the primary sources of liquidity.

The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the ability to access funding which enables United to efficiently satisfy the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers and meet United’s cash needs. Liquidity is managed by monitoring funds’ availability from a number of primary sources. Substantial funding is available from cash and cash equivalents, unused short-term borrowing and a geographically dispersed network of branches providing access to a diversified and substantial retail deposit market.

Short-term needs can be met through a wide array of outside sources such as correspondent and downstream correspondent federal funds and utilization of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Other sources of liquidity available to United to provide long-term as well as short-term funding alternatives, in addition to FHLB advances, are long-term certificates of deposit, lines of credit, borrowings that are secured by bank premises or stock of United’s subsidiaries and issuances of trust preferred securities. In the normal course of business, United through its Asset Liability Committee evaluates these as well as other alternative funding strategies that may be utilized to meet short-term and long-term funding needs.

For the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31, 2018,~~September 30, 2019, cash of ~~$93.25~~$90.96 million was provided by operating activities due mainly to net income of ~~$63.64~~$196.81 million for the ~~quarter. In addition, proceeds from the sales~~first nine months. Partially offsetting net income were net originations of $102.94 million in mortgage loans ~~in the secondary market exceeded originations by $17.76 million.~~held for sale. Net cash of ~~$175.92~~$286.85 million was used in investing activities which was primarily due to net loan growth of ~~$149.57~~$205.48 million and ~~$28.05 million of~~ net purchases of $82.27 million in investments over net proceeds from sales. During the first ~~three~~nine months of 2019, net cash of ~~$234.94~~$151.65 million was provided by financing activities due primarily to net growth of ~~$164.85~~$101.26 million in deposits and net advances of ~~$340.00~~$210.00 million in long-term FHLB advances. These funding activities were partially offset by ~~a net repayment of $223.51 million in short-term borrowings and~~ cash ~~dividends~~ paid of ~~$34.97~~$104.42 million for dividends and $34.50 million for the ~~quarter.~~repurchase of common stock for the first nine months of 2019. The net effect of the cash flow activities was ~~an increase~~a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of ~~$152.26~~$44.24 million for the first ~~three~~nine months of 2019.

United anticipates it can meet its obligations over the next 12 months and has no material commitments for capital expenditures. There are no known trends, demands, commitments, or events that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in United’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. United also has lines of credit available. See Notes 8 and 9 to the accompanying unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more details regarding the amounts available to United under lines of credit.

The Asset Liability Committee monitors liquidity to ascertain that a liquidity position within certain prescribed parameters is maintained. No changes are anticipated in the policies of United’s Asset Liability Committee.

Capital Resources

United’s capital position is financially sound. United seeks to maintain a proper relationship between capital and total assets to support growth and sustain earnings. United has historically generated attractive returns on shareholders’ equity. United is well-capitalized based upon regulatory guidelines. United’s risk-based capital ratio is ~~14.19%~~14.44% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 while its Common Equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 capital and leverage ratios are ~~12.02%~~12.28%, ~~12.02%~~12.28% and ~~10.16%~~10.20%, respectively. The regulatory requirements for a well-capitalized financial institution are a risk-based capital ratio of 10.0%, a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.0% and a leverage ratio of 5.0%.

Table of Contents

Total shareholders’ equity was ~~$3.29~~$3.35 billion at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, which was an increase of ~~$35.27~~$102.72 million or ~~1.08%~~3.16% from December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to the retention of earnings.

United’s equity to assets ratio was ~~16.73%~~16.98% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 as compared to 16.89% at December 31, 2018. The primary capital ratio, capital and reserves to total assets and reserves, was ~~17.06%~~17.31% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 as compared to 17.23% at December 31, 2018. United’s average equity to average asset ratio was ~~17.02%~~17.08% for the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019 as compared to ~~17.65%~~17.13% the third quarter of 2018. United’s average equity to average asset ratio was also 17.04% for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2019 as compared to 17.43% for the first nine months of 2018. All of these financial measurements reflect a financially sound position.

During the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019, United’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.34 per share. Cash dividends were $1.02 per common share for the first nine months of 2019. Total cash dividends declared were ~~$34.76~~$34.52 million for the third quarter of 2019 and $103.97 million for the first nine months of 2019 as compared to $35.30 million for the third quarter of ~~2019 which was a decrease of $989 thousand or 2.77% from dividends declared of $35.75~~2018 and $106.64 million for the first ~~quarter~~nine months of 2018.

Item 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The objective of United’s Asset Liability Management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within United’s policy guidelines. This objective is accomplished through the management of balance sheet liquidity and interest rate risk exposures due to changes in economic conditions, interest rate levels and customer preferences.

Interest Rate Risk

Management considers interest rate risk to be United’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in United’s net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. United’s earnings are largely dependent on the effective management of interest rate risk.

Management of interest rate risk focuses on maintaining consistent growth in net interest income within Board-approved policy limits. United’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which includes senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk to maintain an acceptable level of change to net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Policy established for interest rate risk is stated in terms of the change in net interest income over a

one-year

and

two-year

horizon given an immediate and sustained increase or decrease in interest rates. The current limits approved by the Board of Directors are structured on a staged basis with each stage requiring specific actions.

United employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its exposure to changing interest rates. One such technique utilizes an earnings simulation model to analyze the sensitivity of net interest income to movements in interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and

off-balance

sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the impact of changing interest rates on the prepayment rate of certain assets and liabilities. The model also includes executive management projections for activity levels in product lines offered by United. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. Rate scenarios could involve parallel or nonparallel shifts in the yield curve, depending on historical, current, and expected conditions, as well as the need to capture any material effects of explicit or embedded options. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management’s strategies.

Table of Contents

Interest sensitive assets and liabilities are defined as those assets or liabilities that mature or are repriced within a designated time frame. The principal function of managing interest rate risk is to maintain an appropriate relationship between those assets and liabilities that are sensitive to changing market interest rates. The difference between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities for specified periods of time is known as the “GAP.” Earnings-simulation analysis captures not only the potential of these interest sensitive assets and liabilities to mature or reprice, but also the probability that they will do so. Moreover, earnings-simulation analysis considers the relative sensitivities of these balance sheet items and projects their behavior over an extended period of time. United closely monitors the sensitivity of its assets and liabilities on an

on-going

basis and projects the effect of various interest rate changes on its net interest margin.

The following table shows United’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

-100		0.21	%		0.97	%
-200		(1.26	%)		(0.97	%)

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, given an immediate, sustained 100 basis point upward shock to the yield curve used in the simulation model, net interest income for United is estimated to decrease by ~~1.83%~~0.33% over one year as compared to a

decrease of 1.29% at December 31, 2018. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained upward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated ~~3.89%~~1.09% over one year as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, as compared to a decrease of 2.71% as of December 31, 2018. A 100 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would increase net interest income by an estimated ~~1.48%~~0.21% over one year as of ~~March 31, 2018~~September 30, 2019 as compared to an increase of 0.97%, over one year as of December 31, 2018. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would ~~increase~~decrease net interest income by an estimated ~~0.14%~~1.26% over one year as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 as compared to a decrease of 0.97% over one year as of December 31, 2018.

In addition to the one year earnings sensitivity analysis, a

two-year

analysis is also performed. Compared to the one year analysis, United is projected to show improved performance in year two within the upward rate shock scenarios. Given an immediate, sustained 100 basis point upward shock to the yield curve used in the simulation model, net interest income for United is estimated to increase by ~~0.54%~~1.93% in year two as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained upward shock in the yield curve would increase net interest income by an estimated ~~0.33%~~3.04% in year two as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. A 100 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated ~~1.94%~~2.90% in year two as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. A 200 basis point immediate, sustained downward shock in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated ~~8.13%~~6.82% in year two as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019.

This analysis does not include the potential increased refinancing activities, which should lessen the negative impact on net income from falling rates. While it is unlikely market rates would immediately move 100 or 200 basis points upward or downward on a sustained basis, this is another tool used by management and the Board of Directors to gauge interest rate risk. All of these estimated changes in net interest income are and were within the policy guidelines established by the Board of Directors.

To further aid in interest rate management, United’s subsidiary bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). The use of FHLB advances provides United with a low risk means of matching maturities of earning assets and interest-bearing funds to achieve a desired interest rate spread over the life of the earning assets. In addition, United uses credit with large regional banks and trust preferred securities to provide funding.

Table of Contents

As part of its interest rate risk management strategy, United may use derivative instruments to protect against adverse price or interest rate movements on the value of certain assets or liabilities and on future cash flows. These derivatives commonly consist of interest rate swaps, caps, floors, collars, futures, forward contracts, written and purchased options. Interest rate swaps obligate two parties to exchange one or more payments generally calculated with reference to a fixed or variable rate of interest applied to the notional amount. United accounts for its derivative activities in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”

Extension Risk

A key feature of most mortgage loans is the ability of the borrower to repay principal earlier than scheduled. This is called a prepayment. Prepayments arise primarily due to sale of the underlying property, refinancing, or foreclosure. In general, declining interest rates tend to increase prepayments, and rising interest rates tend to slow prepayments. Like other fixed-income securities, when interest rates rise, the value of mortgage- related securities generally declines. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of mortgage-related securities and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. If interest rates rise, United’s holdings of mortgage-related securities may experience reduced returns if the borrowers of the underlying mortgages pay off their mortgages later than anticipated. This is generally referred to as extension risk.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, United’s mortgage related securities portfolio had an amortized cost of ~~$1.6~~$1.5 billion, of which approximately $1.1 billion or ~~68%~~75% were fixed rate collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs). These fixed rate

CMOs consisted primarily of planned amortization class (PACs),

sequential-pay

and accretion directed (VADMs) bonds having an average life of approximately 3.6 years and a weighted average yield of ~~2.76%~~2.70%, under current projected prepayment assumptions. These securities are expected to have very little extension risk in a rising rate environment. Current models show that an immediate, sustained upward shock of 300 basis points, the average life of these securities would only extend to ~~4.3~~4.5 years. The projected price decline of the fixed rate CMO portfolio in rates up 300 basis points would be ~~10.4%~~10.3%, or less than the price decline of a

year treasury note. By comparison, the price decline of a

30-year

current coupon mortgage backed security (MBS) given an immediate, sustained upward shock of 300 basis points would be approximately ~~19.4%~~15.1%.

United had approximately ~~$218~~$162 million in balloon and other securities with a projected yield of ~~2.32%~~2.56% and a projected average life of ~~3.7~~4.3 years on ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. This portfolio consisted primarily of Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS) mortgage backed securities (MBS) with a weighted average loan age (WALA) of ~~4.8~~5 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM) of ~~4.1~~4.7 years.

United had approximately ~~$90~~$22 million in

15-year

mortgage backed securities with a projected yield of ~~2.51%~~2.99% and a projected average life of ~~3.4~~3.1 years as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. This portfolio consisted of seasoned

15-year

mortgage paper with a weighted average loan age (WALA) of ~~5.7~~7.3 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM) of ~~9.6~~9.9 years.

United had approximately ~~$49~~$45 million in

20-year

mortgage backed securities with a projected yield of ~~2.74%~~2.70% and a projected average life of ~~4.9~~4.2 years on ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. This portfolio consisted of seasoned

20-year

mortgage paper with a weighted average loan age (WALA) of ~~5.6~~6.1 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM) of ~~13.9~~13.4 years.

United had approximately ~~$59~~$53 million in

30-year

mortgage backed securities with a projected yield of ~~2.97%~~2.87% and a projected average life of ~~6.3~~4.9 years on ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. This portfolio consisted of seasoned

30-year

mortgage paper and Home Equity Conversion Mortgages with a weighted average loan age (WALA) of ~~2.6~~2.9 years and a weighted average maturity (WAM) of ~~27.7~~27.3 years.

The remaining 4%7% of the mortgage related securities portfolio at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, included adjustable rate securities (ARMs),

10-year

mortgage backed pass-through securities and other fixed rate mortgage backed securities.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, an evaluation was performed under the supervision of and with the participation of United’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of United’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, United’s management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that United’s disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q

was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period required by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

United’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that United’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and fraud. While United’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objective, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the

realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in United’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, or in other factors that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect United’s internal control over financial reporting.

~~Level 2~~

Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

~~Level 3~~

Valuation is based on prices, inputs and model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.
