THE BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED ~~CONSOLDIATED~~CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Structure of Company

The Bancorp, Inc. ~~(the Company)~~, or (“the Company”), is a Delaware corporation and a registered financial holding company. Its primary subsidiary is The Bancorp Bank, ~~(the Bank)~~or (“the Bank”), which is wholly owned by the Company. The Bank is a Delaware chartered commercial bank located in Wilmington, Delaware and is a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ~~(FDIC)~~(“FDIC”) insured institution. ~~In its continuing operations, the~~The Bank has ~~four~~4 primary lines of national specialty lending: securities-backed lines of credit ~~(SBLOC)~~(“SBLOC”) and cash value of insurance-backed lines of credit (“IBLOC”), leasing (direct lease financing), Small Business Administration ~~(SBA)~~(“SBA”) loans and non-SBA commercial real estate (“CRE”) bridge loans (“CRE loans”). Prior to 2020, the Company generated non-SBA CRE bridge loans for sale into capital markets primarily through ~~commercial~~ loan securitizations ~~(CMBS)~~which issued commercial mortgage backed securities (“CMBS”). In the third quarter of 2020, the Company decided to retain the CMBS loans on its balance sheet and no future securitizations are currently planned. In the third quarter of 2021, the Company resumed originating non-SBA CRE bridge loans (primarily apartment buildings), after suspending the origination of such loans for most of 2020 and the first half of 2021. These originations are classified as real estate bridge loans (“REBL”). Additionally, in 2020, the Company began originating advisor financing loans to investment advisors for debt refinance, acquisition of other advisory firms or internal succession. Through the Bank, the Company also provides ~~banking~~payment and deposit services nationally, which ~~include~~includes prepaid and debit cards, private label banking, ~~institutional banking,~~deposit accounts to investment advisors’ customers, card payment and other payment processing.

The Company and the Bank are subject to regulation by certain state and federal agencies and, accordingly, they are examined periodically by those regulatory authorities. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities, the Company’s and the Bank’s businesses may be affected by state and federal legislation and regulations.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company, as of ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 and for the three ~~and nine~~ month periods ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 and ~~2016,~~2021, are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ~~(U.S. GAAP)~~(“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange ~~Commission.~~Commission (“SEC”). However, in the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all necessary adjustments to fairly present the results of the interim periods presented. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016 (2016~~2021 (the “2021 Form ~~10-K Report)~~10-K”). The results of operations for the ~~nine~~three month period ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations for the full year ending December 31, ~~2017.~~ 2022. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company changed its presentation of treasury stock acquired through common stock repurchases. To simplify presentation, common stock repurchases previously shown separately as treasury stock, are now shown as reductions in common stock and additional paid-in capital.

There have been no significant changes to the Significant Accounting Policies as described in the 2021 Form 10-K. The Company performed a strategic evaluation of its businesses in the third quarter of 2014 and decided to discontinue its Philadelphia commercial lending operations to focus on its specialty finance lending. The Company has since disposed of the vast majority of related loans and other real estate owned. While in the process of disposition, financial results of the commercial lending operations were presented as separate from continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations and assets of the commercial lending operations to be disposed of were presented as assets held-for-sale on the consolidated balance sheets. As disposition efforts were winding down, discontinued loans of $61.6 million were reclassified to loans held for investment in the first quarter of 2022. Accordingly, these loans will be accounted for as such, and included in related tables. On the December 31, 2021 consolidated balance sheet, these discontinued loans were reclassified as loans held for sale in continuing operations and included within “Commercial loans, at fair value”. Discontinued other real estate owned of $17.3 million which constituted the remainder of discontinued assets was reclassified to the other real estate owned caption on the balance sheet.

Our non-SBA commercial real estate bridge loans, at fair value, are primarily collateralized by multi-family properties (apartment buildings), and to a lesser extent, by hotel and retail properties. These loans were originally generated for sale through securitizations. In 2020, we decided to retain these loans on our balance sheet as interest earning assets and have resumed originating such loans. These new originations are identified as REBL and are held for investment in the loan portfolio. Prior originations initially intended for securitizations continue to be accounted for at fair value, and are included in the balance sheet in “Commercial loans, at fair value.”

Note 3. Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock options in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ~~(FASB)~~ (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification ~~(ASC)~~(“ASC”) 718, “Stock Based Compensation”. The expense of the option is generally measured at fair value at the grant date with compensation expense recognized over the service period, which is typically the vesting period. For grants subject to a service condition, the Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes model takes into consideration the exercise price and expected life of the options, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, the expected dividends on the stock and the current risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the option. The Company’s estimate of the fair value of a stock option is based on expectations derived from historical experience and may not necessarily equate to its market value when fully vested. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company estimates the number of options for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had ~~two~~3 active stock-based compensation ~~plans, which are more fully described in its 2016 Form 10-K Report.~~ plans.

~~The Company did not grant stock options during~~During the ~~nine month period~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017. The~~March 31, 2022, the Company granted ~~300,000~~100,000 stock options with a vesting period of four years inand a weighted average grant-date fair value of $14.01. During the ~~first nine~~three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company granted 100,000 stock options with a vesting period of ~~2016.~~four years and a weighted average grant-date fair value of $8.51. There were ~~28,500~~27,818 common stock options exercised in the ~~nine~~three month ~~periods~~period ended ~~September 30, 2017, and no~~ March 31, 2022.There were 61,500 common stock options ~~were~~ exercised ~~during~~in the ~~nine~~three month period ended ~~September 30, 2016.~~ March 31, 2021.

A summary of the ~~status of the~~ Company’s ~~equity compensation plans~~stock options is presented below.

At issuance, the 219,311 RSUs granted in the first three months of 2022 had a fair value of $30.32 per unit. In the first three months of 2021, the Company granted 313,697 RSUs of which 261,073 have a vesting period of three years and ~~135,000~~52,624 have a vesting period of one year.

In the first nine months of 2016, the Company granted 789,000 restricted RSUs of which 620,000 had a vesting period of three years and 169,000 had a vesting period of one year. Of the RSUs granted in the first nine months of 2016, 489,000 had a fair value of $4.50 and 300,000 had a fair value of $6.75 at issuance. The total fair value of RSUs vested for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $2.6 million and $830,000, respectively.$18.81 per unit.

A summary of the status of the Company’s RSUs is presented below.

Outstanding at March 31, 2022				942,175	$	14.25	1.50

As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, there was a total of ~~$5.9~~$13.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards under share-based plans. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately ~~2.0~~1.9 years. Related compensation expense for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~ March 31, 2022 and ~~2016~~2021 was $1.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The total issuance date fair value of RSUs vested and options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $4.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The total intrinsic value of the options exercised and ~~$2.0~~RSUs vested in those respective periods was $9.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively.

For the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company estimated the fair value of each stock option grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:



	March 31,
	2022	2021
Risk-free interest rate	1.94%	1.19%
Expected dividend yield	—	—
Expected volatility	45.14%	45.61%
Expected lives (years)	6.3	6.3

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock and peer group comparisons over the expected life of the grant. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury strip rate in effect at the time of the grant. The life of the option is based on historical factors which include the contractual term, vesting period, exercise behavior and employee terminations. In accordance with ASC 718, Stock Based Compensation, stock based compensation expense for the period ended March 31, 2022 is based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest and has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. The Company estimated forfeitures using historical data based upon the groups identified by management.

Note 4. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share ~~under~~in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share exclude dilution and are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities, including stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Stock options are dilutive if exercise prices are less than current stock prices. RSUs are dilutive because they represent grants over vesting periods which do not require employees to pay exercise prices. The dilution shown in the tables below includes the dilution from both stock options and RSUs.

The following tables show the Company’s earnings per share for the periods presented:

The Company has evaluated the securities in the above tables as of March 31, 2022 and has concluded that ~~none~~0ne of these securities ~~has impairment that is other-than-temporary.~~ required an allowance for credit loss. The Company evaluates whether aan allowance for credit ~~impairment exists~~loss is required by considering primarily the following factors: (a) the ~~length of time and~~ extent to which the fair value ~~has been~~is less than the amortized cost of the security, (b) changes in the financial condition, credit rating and near-term prospects of the issuer, (c) whether the issuer is current on contractually obligated interest and principal payments, (d) changes in the financial condition of the security’s underlying collateral and (e) the payment structure of the security. The Company’s determination of the best estimate of expected future cash flows, which is used to determine the credit loss amount, is a quantitative and qualitative process that incorporates information received from third-party sources along with internal assumptions and judgments regarding the future performance of the security. The Company concluded that ~~most of~~ the securities that are in an unrealized loss position are in a loss position because of changes in market interest rates after the securities were purchased. ~~Securities that have been in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer include other securities whose market values are sensitive to market interest rates.~~ The Company’s unrealized loss for other debt securities, which include ~~two~~one single issuer trust preferred ~~securities,~~security, is primarily related to general market conditions, including a lack of liquidity in the market. The severity of the ~~temporary impairments~~impact of fair value in relation to the carrying amounts of the individual investments is consistent with market developments. The Company’s analysis of each investment is performed at the security level. As a result of its review, the Company concluded that ~~other-than-temporary impairment did~~an allowance was not ~~exist due~~required to ~~the Company’s ability and intention to hold these securities to recover their amortized cost basis.~~recognize credit losses.

Note 6. Loans

The Company has several lending lines of business ~~including~~including: small business comprised primarily of SBA ~~loans,~~loans; direct lease financing primarily for commercial vehicles and to a lesser extent equipment; SBLOC collateralized by marketable securities; IBLOC collateralized by the cash value of eligible life insurance policies; and ~~other specialty and consumer lending. The~~investment advisor financing for purposes of debt refinance, acquisition of another firm or internal succession. Prior to 2020, the Company also ~~originates~~originated commercial real estate bridge loans for sale into commercial mortgage backed securitizations or to secondary government guaranteed loan markets. These sales are accounted for as true sales and servicing rights on these loans are not retained. Thesecuritizations. At origination, the Company ~~has~~ elected fair value treatment for these loans as they were originally held-for-sale, to better reflect the economics of the transactions. Currently, the Company intends to hold these loans on its balance sheet, and thus no longer accounts for these loans as held-for-sale. The Company continues to present these loans at fair value. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, the fair value of these loans was $1.18 billion, and the ~~loans held for sale~~ unpaid principal balance was ~~$383.0 million and their book value was $378.2 million.~~$1.18 billion. Included in ~~the gain~~“Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on ~~sale of~~commercial loans, at fair value” in the ~~Statements~~consolidated statements of ~~Operations~~operations were ~~gains~~changes in the fair value of such loans. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net unrealized losses recognized ~~from~~for such changes in fair value were $1.20 million, which reflected $164,000 of ~~$1.9 million for~~loss attributable to credit weaknesses. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017. There were no~~March 31, 2021, unrealized losses recognized for such changes in fair value ~~related~~were $478,000 of which $246,000 was attributable to credit ~~risk. Interest earned on~~weaknesses. In the third quarter of 2021, the Company resumed the origination of such loans which it also intends to hold for investment and which are accounted for at amortized cost. They are captioned as REBLs as they are transitional commercial mortgage loans which are made to improve and rehabilitate existing properties which already have cash flow. The Bank pledged the majority of its loans held for investment at amortized cost and commercial loans at fair value to either the Federal Home Loan Bank or the Federal Reserve Bank for lines of credit with those institutions. The Federal Home Loan Bank line is periodically utilized to manage liquidity, but the Federal Reserve line has not generally been used. However, in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve has encouraged banks to utilize their lines to maximize the amount of funding available for credit markets. Accordingly, the Bank has periodically borrowed against its Federal Reserve line on an overnight basis. The amount of loans pledged varies and the collateral may be unpledged at any time to the extent the collateral exceeds advances. The lines are maintained consistent with the Bank’s liquidity policy which maximizes potential liquidity. At March 31, 2022, $1.81 billion of loans were pledged to the Federal Reserve and $1.39 billion of loans were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank. At March 31, 2022, there were 0 amounts outstanding against the Federal Reserve line and Federal Home Loan Bank line.

Prior to 2020, the Company sponsored the structuring of commercial mortgage loan securitizations, and in 2020, the Company decided not to pursue additional securitizations. The loans previously sold to the commercial mortgage-backed securitizations were transitional commercial mortgage loans made to improve and rehabilitate existing properties which already have cash flow. Servicing rights were not retained. Each of the securitizations is considered a variable interest entity of which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. Further, true sale ~~during~~accounting has been applicable to each of the ~~period held~~securitizations, as supported by a review performed by an independent third-party consultant. In each of the securitizations, the Company obtained a tranche of certificates which are accounted for as available-for-sale debt securities. The securities were recorded ~~in Interest Income-Loans, including fees,~~at fair value at acquisition, which was determined by an independent third-party based on the ~~Statements~~discounted cash flow method using unobservable (level 3) inputs. The securitized loans were structured with some prepayment protection and with extension options which are common for rehabilitation loans. It was expected that those factors would generally offset the impact of ~~Operations.~~prepayments which would therefore not be significant. Accordingly, prepayments on CRE securities were not originally assumed in the first four securitizations. However, as a result of higher than expected prepayments on CRE2, annual prepayments of 15% on CRE5 were assumed, beginning after the first-year anniversary of the CRE5 securitization. For CRE6, there was no premium or discount associated with the tranche purchased and prepayments were accordingly not estimated. Of the six securities resulting from our securitizations all have been repaid except those from CRE-2 and CRE-6. Payments on CRE-6 are on schedule. As of March 31, 2022, the principal balance of the security we own issued by CRE-2 was $12.6 million. Repayment is expected from the workout or disposition of commercial real estate collateral, after repayment of more senior tranches. The Company’s $12.6 million security has 47% excess credit support; thus, losses of 47% of remaining security balances would have to be incurred, prior to any loss on our security. Additionally, the commercial real estate collateral supporting three of the remaining four loans was re-appraised in 2020 and 2021. The updated appraised value is approximately $70.3 million, which is net of $3.5 million due to the servicer. The remaining principal to be repaid on all securities is approximately $66.2 million and, as noted, the Company’s security is scheduled to be repaid prior to 47% of the outstanding securities. However, any future reappraisals could result in further decreases in collateral valuation. While available information indicates that the value of existing collateral will be adequate to repay the Company’s security, there can be no assurance that such valuations will be realized upon loan resolutions, and that deficiencies will not exceed the 47% credit support.

Because of credit enhancements for each security, cash flows were not reduced by expected losses. For each of the securitizations, the Company has recorded a gain which is comprised of (i) the excess of consideration received by the Company in the transaction over the carrying value of the loans at securitization, less related transactions costs incurred; and (ii) the recognition of previously deferred origination and exit fees.

The Company analyzes credit risk prior to making loans on an individual loan basis. The Company considers relevant aspects of the

borrowers’ financial position and cash flow, past borrower performance, management’s knowledge of market conditions, collateral and the ratio of loan amounts to estimated collateral value in making its credit determinations.

⁽¹⁾Troubled debt restructurings include non-accrual loans of $745,000 and $656,000 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company had 0 commitments to extend additional credit to loans classified as troubled debt restructurings as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

When loans are classified as troubled debt restructurings, the Company estimates the value of underlying collateral and repayment sources. A specific reserve in the allowance for credit losses is established if the collateral valuation, less estimated disposition costs, is lower than the recorded loan value. The amount of the specific reserve serves to increase the provision for credit losses in the quarter the loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring. As of March 31, 2022, there were 14 troubled debt restructured loans with a balance of $5.3 million which had specific reserves of $655,000. As of December 31, 2021, there were 10 troubled debt restructured loans with a balance of $1.5 million which had specific reserves of $476,000. Substantially all of these reserves related to the non-guaranteed portion of SBA loans for start-up businesses.

The following table summarizes ~~as of September 30, 2017,~~ loans that ~~had been~~were restructured within the ~~last~~ 12 months ended March 31, 2022 that have subsequently ~~defaulted.~~defaulted (in thousands):

~~As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no commitments to lend additional funds to loan customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings.~~

~~A detail of the changes in~~Management estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available internal and external historical loan performance information, current economic conditions, and ~~lease~~reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the initial basis for the estimation of expected credit losses over the estimated remaining life of the loans. The methodology used in the estimation of the allowance, which is performed at least quarterly, is designed to be responsive to changes in portfolio credit quality and the impact of current and future economic conditions on loan performance. The review of the appropriateness of the allowance is performed by the Chief Credit Officer and presented to the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors for their review. With the exception of the other loan category which uses discounted cash flow to determine a reserve, the allowances for other categories are determined by establishing reserves on loan pools with similar risk characteristics based on a lifetime loss-rate model, or vintage analysis, as described in the following paragraph. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. If foreclosure is believed to be probable or repayment is expected from the sale of the collateral, a reserve for deficiency is established within the allowance. Those reserves are estimated based on the difference between loan principal and the estimated fair value of the collateral, adjusted for estimated disposition costs.

For purposes of determining the pool-basis reserve, the loans not assigned an individual reserve are segregated by product type, to recognize differing risk characteristics within portfolio segments. An average historical loss rate is calculated for each product type, except SBLOC and IBLOC, which utilize probability of loss/loss given default considerations. Loss rates are computed by classifying net charge-offs by year of loan origin, and dividing into total originations for that specific year. This methodology is referred to as ~~follows (in thousands):~~vintage analysis. The average loss rate is then projected over the estimated remaining loan lives unique to each loan pool, to determine estimated lifetime losses. For SBLOC and IBLOC, since losses have not been incurred, probability of loss/loss given default considerations are utilized. For all loan pools the Company considers the need for an additional allowance based upon qualitative factors such as the Company’s current loan performance statistics as determined by pool. These qualitative factors are intended to account for forward looking expectations over a twelve to eighteen month period not reflected in historical loss rates and otherwise unaccounted for in the quantitative process. Accordingly, such factors may increase or decrease the allowance compared to historical loss rates. Aside from the qualitative adjustments to account for forward looking expectations of loss over a twelve to eighteen month projection period, the balance of the allowance reverts directly to the Company’s quantitative analysis derived from its historical loss rates.

A similar process is employed to calculate an allowance assigned to off-balance sheet commitments, which are comprised of unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. That allowance for unfunded commitments is recorded in other liabilities. Even though portions of the allowance may be allocated to loans that have been individually measured for credit deterioration, the entire allowance is available for any credit that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.

The Company ranks its qualitative factors in five levels: minimal, low, moderate, moderate-high and high risk. The individual qualitative factors for each portfolio segment have their own scale based on an analysis of that segment. A high risk ranking has the greatest impact on the allowance calculation with each level below having a lesser impact on a sliding scale. The qualitative factors used for each portfolio are described below in the description of each portfolio segment. When the Company adopted CECL as of January 1, 2020, the management assumption was that some degree of economic slowdown should be considered over the next eighteen months. That belief reflected the length of the current economic expansion and the relatively high level of unsustainable U.S. government deficit spending. Accordingly, certain of the Company’s qualitative factors were set at moderate as of January 1, 2020. Based on the uncertainty as to how the COVID-19 pandemic would impact the Company’s loan pools, the Company increased other qualitative factors to moderate and moderate high in 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company reassessed these factors and reversed increases to moderate-high for certain pools, based upon increased vaccination rates and significant reopening of the economy. The economic qualitative factor is based on the estimated impact of economic conditions on the loan pools, as distinguished from the economic factors themselves, for the following reasons. The Company has not experienced charge-offs for either real estate bridge lending or similarly underwritten loans in its predecessor commercial loans, at fair value portfolio, despite stressed economic conditions. Additionally, there have been no losses for multi-family (apartment buildings) in the Company’s securitizations. Accordingly, industry loss information for multi-family housing was utilized in the qualitative factors. Similarly, the Company’s charge-offs have been virtually non-existent for SBLOC and IBLOC notwithstanding stressed economic periods. Investment advisor loans were first offered in 2020 with limited performance history. For investment advisor loans, the nature of the underlying ultimate repayment source was considered, namely the fee-based advisory income streams resulting from investment portfolios under management and the impact changes in economic conditions would have on those payment streams. Additionally, the Company’s charge-off histories for small business loans, primarily SBA, and leases have not correlated with economic conditions. While specific economic factors did not correlate with actual historical losses, multiple economic factors are considered.

~~The~~methodology for measuring expected credit losses. These pools have similar risk and collateral characteristics, and certain of these pools are broken down further in determining and applying the vintage loss estimates previously discussed. For instance, within the direct lease financing pool, government and public institution leases are considered separately. Additionally, the Company evaluates its loans under an internal loan risk rating system as a means of identifying problem loans. The special mention classification indicates weaknesses that may, if not cured, threaten the borrower’s future repayment ability. A substandard classification reflects an existing weakness indicating the possible inadequacy of net worth and other repayment sources. These classifications are used both by regulators and peers, as they have been correlated with an increased probability of credit losses. A summary of the Company’s primary portfolio pools and loans accordingly classified, by year of origination, at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows (in thousands):

*Included in the SBL non real estate non-rated total of $46.6 million, were $44.8 million of PPP loans which are government guaranteed.

**Included in Other loans are $22.7 million of SBA loans purchased for CRA purposes as of December 31, 2021. These loans are classified as SBL in the Company’s loan table which classify loans by type, as opposed to risk characteristics.

SBL. Substantially, all small business loans consist of SBA loans. The Bank participates in loan programs established by the SBA, including the 7(a) Loan Guarantee Program, the 504 Fixed Asset Financing Program, and a temporary program, the PPP. The 7(a) Loan Guarantee Program is designed to help small business borrowers start or expand their businesses by providing partial guarantees of loans made by banks and non-bank lending institutions for specific business purposes, including long or short term working capital; funds for the purchase of equipment, machinery, supplies and materials; funds for the purchase, construction or renovation of real estate; and funds to acquire, operate or expand an existing business or refinance existing debt, all under conditions established by the SBA. The 504 Fixed Asset Financing Program includes the financing of real estate and commercial mortgages. In 2020 and 2021, the Company also participated in PPP, which provides short-term loans to small businesses. PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. This program was a specific response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and these loans are expected to be reimbursed by the U.S. government within one year of their origination. The Company segments the SBL portfolio into four pools: non real estate, commercial mortgage and construction to capture the risk characteristics of each pool, and the PPP loans discussed above. In the table above, the PPP loans are included in non-rated SBL non real estate. The qualitative factors for SBL loans focus on pool loan performance, underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans and changes in economic conditions. Additionally, the construction segment adds a qualitative factor for general construction risk, such as construction delays. The U.S. government guaranteed portion of 7a loans and PPP loans, which are fully guaranteed, are not included in the risk pools because they have inherently different risk characteristics, because of the U.S. government guarantee.

Direct lease financing. The Company provides lease financing for commercial and government vehicle fleets and, to a lesser extent, provides lease financing for other equipment. Leases are either open-end or closed-end. An open-end lease is one in which, at the end of the lease term, the lessee must pay the difference between the amount at which the Company sells the leased asset and the stated termination value. Termination value is a contractual value agreed to by the parties at the inception of a lease as to the value of the leased asset at the end of the lease term. A closed-end lease is one for which no such payment is due on lease termination. In a closed-end lease, the risk that the amount received on a sale of the leased asset will be less than the residual value is assumed by the Bank, as lessor. The qualitative factors for direct lease financing focus on underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans, portfolio loan performance, loan concentrations and changes in economic conditions.

SBLOC. SBLOC loans are made to individuals, trusts and entities and are secured by a pledge of marketable securities maintained in one or more accounts for which the Company obtains a securities account control agreement. The securities pledged may be either debt or equity securities or a combination thereof, but all such securities must be listed for trading on a national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system. SBLOCs are typically payable on demand. Maximum SBLOC line amounts are calculated by applying a standard ‘advance rate’ calculation against the eligible security type depending on asset class: typically, up to 50% for equity securities and mutual fund securities and 80% for investment grade (Standard & Poor’s rating of BBB- or higher, or Moody’s rating of Baa3 or higher) municipal or corporate debt securities. Substantially all SBLOCs have full recourse to the borrower. The underlying securities collateral for SBLOC loans is monitored on a daily basis to confirm the composition of the client portfolio and its daily market value. The primary qualitative factor in the SBLOC analysis is the ratio of loans outstanding to market value. This factor has been maintained at low levels, which has remained appropriate as losses have not materialized despite the historic declines in the equity markets during 2020, during which there were 0 losses. Significant losses have not been incurred since inception of this line of business. Additionally, the advance rates noted above were established to provide the Company with protection from declines in market conditions from the origination date of the lines of credit.

IBLOC. IBLOC loans are collateralized by the cash surrender value of eligible insurance policies. Should a loan default, the primary risks for IBLOCs are if the insurance company issuing the policy were to become insolvent, or if that company would fail to recognize the Bank’s assignment of policy proceeds. To mitigate these risks, insurance company ratings are periodically evaluated for compliance with Bank standards. Additionally, the Bank utilizes assignments of cash surrender value, which legal counsel has concluded are enforceable. The qualitative factors for IBLOC primarily focus on the concentration risk with insurance companies.

Investment advisor financing. In 2020, the Bank began originating loans to investment advisors for purposes of debt refinance, acquisition of another firm or internal succession. Maximum loan amounts are subject to loan-to-value ratios of 70%, based on third party business appraisals, but may be increased depending upon the debt service coverage ratio. Personal guarantees and blanket business liens are obtained as appropriate. As credit losses have not been experienced, the allowance is determined by qualitative factors. The qualitative factors for investment advisor financing focus on changes in lending policies and procedures, portfolio performance and economic conditions.

Real estate bridge loans. Real estate bridge loans are transitional commercial mortgage loans which are made to improve and rehabilitate existing properties which already have cash flow, and which are securitized by those properties. The portfolio is comprised primarily of apartment buildings. Prior to 2020, such loans were originated for securitization and loans which had been originated but not securitized

continue to be accounted for at fair value in commercial loans, at fair value, on the balance sheet. In 2021, originations resumed and are being held for investment in loans, net of deferred fees and costs, on the balance sheet. As credit losses have not been experienced, the allowance is determined by qualitative factors. Qualitative factors focus on changes in economic conditions, underlying collateral and portfolio performance.

Other loans. Other loans include commercial and consumer loans including home equity lines of credit of the type the Company generally no longer offers. The qualitative factors for all other specialty lending and consumer loans focus on changes in the underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans, portfolio loan performance, loan concentrations and changes in economic conditions.

Expected credit losses are estimated over the estimated remaining lives of loans. The estimate excludes possible extensions, renewals and modifications unless either of the following ~~table provides information~~applies: management has a reasonable expectation that a loan will be restructured, or the extension or renewal options are included in the borrower contract and are not unconditionally cancellable by us.

The Company does not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable balances, because these balances are written off in a timely manner as a reduction to interest income when loans are placed on non-accrual status.

Allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk ~~rating indicator~~via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for ~~each segment~~credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted through the provision for credit losses. The estimate considers the likelihood that funding will occur over the estimated life of the commitment. The amount of the allowance in the liability account as of March 31, 2022 and as of December 31, 2021 was $1.4 million.

Financial Group, LLC, (JVB), a broker dealer in which the Company’s Chairman has a minority interest. The Company’s Chairman also serves as Vice Chairman of Institutional Financial Markets Inc., the parent company of JVB. In 2017, the Company purchased $2.8 million of government guaranteed SBA loans from JVB for Community Reinvestment Act purposes. The Company also purchased securities under agreements to resell through JVB primarily consisting of G.N.M.A. certificates which are full faith and credit obligations of the United States government issued at competitive rates. JVB was in compliance with all of the terms of the agreements at September 30, 2017 and had complied with all terms for all prior repurchase agreements. There were $65.1 million and $39.2 million of repurchase agreements outstanding at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 825, ~~“ Financial Instruments Available for Sale”~~“Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of an entity’s assets and liabilities considered to be financial instruments. For the Company, as for most financial institutions, the majority of its assets and liabilities are considered to be financial instruments. However, many such instruments lack an available trading market as characterized by a willing

buyer and willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Accordingly, estimated fair values are determined by the Company using the best available data and an estimation methodology it believes to be suitable for each category of financial instruments. Also, it is the Company’s general practice and intent to hold its financial instruments to maturity whether or not categorized as “available-for-sale” and not to engage in trading or sales activities ~~except for~~although it has sold loans in the ~~sale of commercial loans to secondary markets.~~past and may do so in the future. For fair value disclosure purposes, the Company utilized certain value measurement criteria required ~~under the ASC~~in accordance with 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, ~~and~~as discussed below.

~~Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best available data and an estimation methodology it believes to be suitable for each category of financial instruments.~~ Changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to estimate fair values may materially affect the estimated amounts. Also, there may not be reasonable comparability between institutions due to the wide range of permitted assumptions and methodologies in the absence of active markets. This lack of uniformity gives rise to a high degree of subjectivity in estimating financial instrument fair values.

Cash and cash equivalents, which are comprised of cash and due from banks, the Company’s balance at the Federal Reserve Bank and securities purchased under agreements to resell, had recorded values of ~~$398.9~~$674.2 million and ~~$999.1~~$601.8 million as of ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2021, respectively, which approximated fair values.

The estimated fair values of investment securities are based on quoted market prices, if available, or estimated using a methodology based on management’s inputs. The fair values of the Company’s investment securities held-to-maturity and loans held for sale are based on using “unobservable inputs” that are the best information available in the circumstances. Level 3 investment ~~securities~~security fair values are based on the present ~~value~~valuing of cash flows, which discounts expected cash flows from principal and interest using yield to maturity, or yield to call as appropriate, at the measurement date. In the first quarter of 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between the three levels.

FHLB and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank stock is held as required by those respective institutions and is carried at cost. Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock according to predetermined formulas. Atlantic Central Bankers Bank requires its correspondent banking institutions to hold stock as a condition of membership.

~~Commercial~~Commercial loans held at fair value are comprised primarily of commercial real estate bridge loans and SBA loans which had been originated for sale ~~have estimated fair values~~or securitization in the secondary market, and which are now being held on the balance sheet. Commercial real estate bridge loans and SBA loans are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis based upon ~~either~~pricing for similar loans where market indications of the sales price of such loans ~~from recent sales transactions or discounted cash flow analysis.~~are not available, on a pooled basis.

The net loan portfolio ~~at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 has been~~is valued using the present value of discounted cash flow where market prices were not available. The discount rate used in these calculations is the estimated current market rate adjusted for credit risk. Accrued interest receivable has a carrying value that approximates fair value.

~~On December 30, 2014, the Bank entered into an agreement for, and closed on, the sale of a portion of its~~Assets held-for-sale from discontinued commercial loan portfolio. The purchaser of the loan portfolio was a newly formed entity, 2014-1 LLC (Walnut Street). The price paid to the Bank for the loan portfolio which had a face value of approximately $267.6 million, was approximately $209.6 million, of which approximately $193.6 million was in the form of two notes issued by Walnut Street to the Bank; a senior note in the principal amount of approximately $178.2 million bearing interest at 1.5% per year and maturing in December 2024 and a subordinate note in the principal amount of approximately $15.4 million, bearing interest at 10.0% per year and maturing in December 2024. The balance of these notes comprises the balance of the investment in unconsolidated entity. The fair value was established by the sales price and subsequently subjected to cash flow analysis. The change in value of investment in unconsolidated entity in the income statement includes interest paid and changes in estimated fair value.

~~Discontinued assets held for sale as of September 30, 2017 are held~~operations were recorded at the lower of cost basis or market value. For loans, market value was determined using the ~~income~~discounted cash flow approach which converts expected cash flows from the loan portfolio by unit of measurement to a present value estimate. Unit of measurement was determined by loan type and for significant loans on an individual loan basis. ~~The~~Loan fair values ~~of the Company’s loans classified as assets held for sale~~ are based on “unobservable inputs” that are ~~the best information~~based on available ~~in the circumstances.~~information. Level 3 fair values are based on the present value of cash flows by unit of measurement. ~~For commercial~~In the first quarter of 2022, discontinued loans ~~a market adjusted rate~~were reclassified to ~~discount expected cash flows from outstanding principal~~loans held for investment, as efforts to sell the loans have been winding down. Accordingly, these loans will be accounted for as such, and ~~interest~~included in related tables. Discontinued other real estate owned which constituted the remainder of discontinued assets was reclassified to ~~expected maturity at~~ the ~~measurement date was utilized.~~ other real estate owned caption on the consolidated balance sheet.

For other real estate owned, market value ~~was~~is based upon appraisals of the underlying collateral by ~~third party~~third-party appraisers, reduced by 7% to 10% for estimated selling costs.

The estimated fair values of demand deposits ~~(comprising~~ (comprised of interest and non-interest bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certain types of money market accounts) are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (generally, their carrying amounts). The fair values of securities sold under agreements to repurchase and ~~short term~~short-term borrowings are equal to their carrying amounts as they are ~~short term~~short-term borrowings.

Time deposits, when outstanding, senior debt and subordinated debentures have a fair value estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current interest rates to discount expected cash flows. ~~Based upon time deposit maturities at September 30, 2017, the carrying values approximate their fair values.~~ The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value. Long term borrowings resulted from sold loans which did not qualify for true sale accounting. They are presented in the amount of the principal of such loans.

The fair values of interest rate swaps, recorded in other assets or other liabilities, are determined using models that use readily observable market inputs and a market standard methodology applied to the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity and interest rate indices.

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated based on the amount of unamortized deferred loan commitment fees. The fair value of letters of credit is based on the amount of unearned fees plus the estimated cost to terminate the letters of credit. Fair values of unrecognized financial instruments, including commitments to extend credit, and the fair value of letters of credit are considered immaterial.

The following tables provide information regarding carrying amounts and estimated fair values (in ~~thousands~~):thousands) as of the dates indicated:

In addition, ASC 820 ~~“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”,~~ establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to assets and liabilities. It clarifies that fair value 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 at the measurement date. It also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures concerning fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Level 1 valuation is based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities to which the Company has access at the measurement date. Level 2 valuation is based on other observable inputs for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. This includes quoted prices for similar assets in active or inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, default rates, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated through, observable market data by market-corroborated reports. Level 3 valuation is based on “unobservable inputs” which the Company believes is the best information available in the circumstances. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The ~~changes in the~~ Company’s Level 3 ~~assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, segregated by fair value hierarchy level,~~asset activity for the categories shown are summarized below (in thousands):

The valuations for each of the instruments above, as of the balance sheet date, are subject to judgments, assumptions and uncertainties, changes in which could have a significant impact on such valuations. Weighted averages were calculated by using the discount rate for each individual security or loan weighted by its market value, except for SBA loans. For SBA loans, the yields derived from market pricing indications for pools determined by date of loan origination were weighted. For commercial loans recorded at fair value, changes in fair value are reflected in the income statement. Changes in the fair value of securities which are unrelated to credit are recorded through equity. Changes in the fair value of loans recorded at amortized cost which are unrelated to credit are a disclosure item, without impact on the financial statements. The notes below refer to the March 31, 2022 table.

a)Commercial mortgage-backed investment security, consisting of a single Bank issued CRE security, is valued using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate and prepayment rate applied are based upon market observations and actual experience for comparable securities and implicitly assume market averages for defaults and loss severities. The security has significant credit enhancement, or protection from other tranches in the issue, which limits the valuation exposure to credit losses.

2930

Nonetheless, increases in expected default rates or loss severities on the loans underlying the issue could reduce its value. In market environments in which investors demand greater yield compensation for credit risk, the discount rate applied would ordinarily be higher and the valuation lower. Changes in prepayments and loss experience could also change the interest earned on this holding in future periods and impact its fair value.

b)Insurance liquidating trust preferred security is a single debenture which is valued using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate used is based on the market rate on comparable relatively illiquid instruments and credit analysis. A change in the liquidating trust’s ability to repay the note, or an increase in interest rates, particularly for privately placed debentures, would affect the discount rate and thus the valuation. As a single security, the weighted average rate shown is the actual rate applied to the security.

c)Loans, net of deferred loan fees and costs are valued using discounted cash flow analysis. Discount rates are based upon available information for estimated current origination rates for each loan type. Origination rates may fluctuate based upon changes in the risk free (Treasury) rate and credit experience for each loan type. At March 31, 2022, the balance included $23.7 million of Paycheck Protection Program loans, which bear interest at 1%, but also earn fees.

d)Commercial-SBA Loans are comprised of the government guaranteed portion of SBA insured loans. Their valuation is based upon the yield derived from dealer pricing indications for guaranteed pools, adjusted for seasoning and prepayments. A limited number of broker/dealers originate the pooled securities for which the loans are purchased and as a result, prices can fluctuate based on such limited market demand, although the government guarantee has resulted in consistent historical demand. Valuations are impacted by prepayment assumptions resulting from both voluntary payoffs and defaults.

e)Non-SBA CRE-fixed are fixed rate non-SBA commercial real estate mortgages. Discount rates used in applying discounted cash flow analysis utilize input from an independent valuation consultant based upon loan terms, the general level of interest rates and the quality of the credit. Certain of these loans are fair valued by a third party, based upon discounting at market rates for similar loans. Deterioration in loan performance or other credit weaknesses could result in fair value ranges which would be dependent upon potential buyers’ tolerance for such weaknesses and are difficult to estimate.

f)Non-SBA CRE-floating are floating rate non-SBA loans, the vast majority of which are secured by multi-family properties (apartments). These are bridge loans designed to provide owners time and funding for property improvements and are generally valued internally using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate for the vast majority of these loans was based upon current origination rates for similar loans. Deterioration in loan performance or other credit weaknesses could result in fair value ranges which would be dependent upon potential buyers’ tolerance for such weaknesses and are difficult to estimate. Certain of these loans are fair valued by a third party, based upon discounting at market rates for similar loans.

g)Subordinated debentures are comprised of 2 subordinated notes issued by the Company, maturing in 2038 with a floating rate of 3-month LIBOR plus 3.25%. These notes are valued using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate is based on the market rate for comparable relatively illiquid instruments. Changes in those market rates, or the credit of the Company could result in changes in the valuation.

h)For other real estate owned, fair value is based upon appraisals of the underlying collateral by third party appraisers, reduced by 7% to 10% for estimated selling costs. Such appraisals reflect estimates of amounts realizable upon property sales based on the sale of comparable properties and other factors. Actual sales prices may vary based upon the identification of potential purchasers, changing conditions in local real estate markets and the level of interest rates required to finance purchases.

The method of valuation approach for the impaired loans was the market value approach based upon appraisals of the underlying collateral by external appraisers, reduced by 7% to 10% for estimated selling costs. Intangible assets are valued based upon internal analyses.

(1)The method of valuation approach for the loans evaluated for an allowance for credit losses on an individual loan basis and also for other real estate owned was the market approach based upon appraisals of the underlying collateral by external appraisers, reduced by 7% to 10% for estimated selling costs. Intangible assets are valued based upon internal analyses.

At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, principal on ~~impaired~~collateral dependent loans and troubled debt restructurings, ~~that~~which is accounted for on the basis of the value of underlying collateral, is shown at estimated fair value of ~~$4.0~~$6.6 million. To arrive at that fair value, related loan principal of ~~$5.8~~$8.1 million was reduced by specific reserves of ~~$1.8~~$1.5 million within the allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses as of that date, representing the deficiency between principal and estimated collateral values, which were reduced by estimated costs to sell. When the deficiency is deemed uncollectible, it is charged off by reducing the specific reserve and decreasing principal. Included in the ~~impaired balance~~collateral dependent loans at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 were ~~seven~~14 troubled debt restructured loans with a balance of ~~$1.8~~$5.3 million, which had specific reserves of ~~$534,000.~~$655,000. Included in the collateral dependent loans at December 31, 2021, were 10 troubled debt restructured loans with a balance of $1.5 million which had specific allowances of $476,000. Valuation techniques consistent with the market and/or cost approach were used to measure fair value and primarily included observable inputs for the individual

~~impaired~~ collateral dependent loans being evaluated such as recent sales of similar assets or observable market data for operational or carrying costs. In cases where such inputs were unobservable, the loan balance is reflected within the Level 3 hierarchy. ~~The fair value of other real estate owned is based on an appraisal of the property using the market approach for valuation.~~

Note 9. Derivatives

The Company utilizes derivative instruments to assist in the management of interest rate sensitivity by modifying the repricing, maturity and option characteristics on ~~commercial real estate~~certain non-SBA CRE loans held ~~for sale.~~at fair value. These instruments are not accounted for as effective hedges. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had entered into ~~eleven~~three interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of ~~$59.7~~$21.3 million. These swap agreements provide for the Company to receive an adjustable rate of interest based upon the three-month ~~London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR).~~LIBOR. The Company recorded a ~~loss~~net gain of ~~$2.5~~$1.1 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 to recognize the fair value of the derivative instruments which is reported in ~~gain (loss)~~net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on ~~sale~~commercial loans, at fair value, in the consolidated statements of ~~loans.~~operations. The amount receivable by the Company under these swap agreements was ~~$722,000~~$515,000 at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022, which is reported in other assets. The Company had minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of its derivative counterparties and had posted cash collateral of ~~$756,000~~$2.3 million as of ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2022.

Note 10. Other Identifiable Intangible Assets

On November 29, 2012, the Company acquired certain software rights for approximately $1.8 million for use in managing prepaid cards in connection with an acquisition. The software is being amortized over eight years. Amortization expense is $217,000 per year ($610,000 over the remainder of the amortization period). The gross carrying amount of the software is $1.8 million, and as of September 30, 2017, the accumulated amortization was $1.3 million.

The Company accounts for its prepaid card customer list in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other”. The acquisition of the Stored Value Solutions division of Marshall Bank First in 2007 resulted in a customer list intangible of $12.0 million which is being amortized over a 12 year period. Amortization expense is $1.0 million per year ($2.3 million over the remainder of the amortization period). The gross carrying amount of the customer list intangible is $12.0 million, and as of September 30, 2017, the accumulated amortization was $~~9.8~~ ~~million. For both 2017 and 2016, amortization expense for the first nine months was $750,000.~~

In May 2016, the Company purchased approximately ~~$60~~$60.0 million of lease receivables which resulted in a customer list intangible of $3.4 million ~~which~~that is being amortized over a 10 year period. Amortization expense is $340,000 per year ($~~1.7~~1.4 million over the next five years). The gross carrying amount of the customer list intangible is $3.4 million, and as of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the accumulated amortization expense was ~~$471,000.~~$2.0 million and $1.9 million.

In January 2020, the Company purchased McMahon Leasing and subsidiaries for approximately $8.7 million which resulted in $1.1 million of intangibles. The gross carrying value of $1.1 million of intangibles was comprised of a customer list intangible of $689,000, goodwill of $263,000 and a trade name valuation of $135,000. The customer list intangible is being amortized over a 12 year period and accumulated amortization expensewas $129,000 at March 31, 2022. Amortization expense is $57,000 per year ($287,000 over the next five years).The gross carrying value and accumulated amortization related to the Company’s intangibles at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are presented below.

Note 11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In ~~May 2014,~~March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ~~(ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue~~(“ASU” or “Update”) 2020-04 which addressed optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, resulting from ~~Contracts with Customers”.~~the phase-out of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) reference rate. To maximize management and accounting flexibility for holders of instruments using LIBOR as a benchmark, the guidance permitted a one-time transfer of such instruments from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale. The Company made such a transfer of four LIBOR-based securities, which comprised its held-to-maturity portfolio, in the first quarter of 2020. The Company discontinued LIBOR-based originations in 2021; however, certain financial instruments outstanding are indexed to LIBOR, including non-SBA commercial loans, at fair value, which amounted to $1.00 billion at March 31, 2022. However, these loans are short-term and are generally expected to be repaid by the June 2023 LIBOR end date. At March 31, 2022, the Company owned $12.6 million of LIBOR based securities purchased from previous securitizations, which are also expected to mature before June 2023. When the Company resumed originating non-SBA commercial loans in the third quarter of 2021, which are identified separately under real estate bridge loans, it utilized the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) as the index. In addition, the Company owns collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and U.S. government agency adjustable-rate mortgages which utilize LIBOR based pricing. CLOs, which amounted to $337.2 million at March 31, 2022, generally have language regarding an index alternative should LIBOR no longer be available. U.S. government agencies generally have the ability to adjust interest rate indices as necessary on impacted LIBOR based securities, which amounted to $73.9 million at March 31, 2022. There is less clarity for the Company’s student loan securities of $21.3 million and its subordinated debentures payable of $13.4 million at that date, and for which industry standards continue to be considered by trustees and other governing bodies. The Company’s derivatives, the notional amount for which totaled $21.3 million at March 31, 2022, are interest rate swaps that are documented under bilateral agreements which contain LIBOR fallback provisions by virtue of counterparty adherence to the 2020 International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.’s LIBOR Fallbacks Protocol. The Bank also owns $10 million of a Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debenture issued by an insurance holding company in liquidation for which the rate index is three month LIBOR. The indenture contains terms for a substitution of the index when LIBOR quotes become unavailable. The Company continues to assess the potential impact of the phase-out of LIBOR on all affected accounts and any other potential impacts, and related accounting guidance.

In August 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-06. This ASU ~~establishes a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries utilizing U.S. GAAP, including those that~~

~~previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate~~adds new quarterly disclosures and ~~construction industries. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts~~expands certain annual disclosures to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this, the standard requires five basic steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) identify the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies the performance obligation. Three basic transition methods are available - full retrospective, retrospective with certain practical expedients, and a cumulative effect approach. We plan to adopt the standard using the cumulative effect approach. Under the cumulative effect alternative, an entity would apply the new revenue standard only to contracts that are incomplete under legacy U.S. GAAP at the date of initial application and recognize the cumulative effect of the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The guidance inquarterly reporting. Amendments within this ASU isare effective for ~~annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning~~fiscal years ending after December 15, ~~2017. Since the standard does not apply to revenue from loans, securities~~2021 and other financial instruments, based on our evaluation to date, we do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations or our consolidated financial position. We are still evaluating the presentation of certain in-scope revenue on the income statement related to our payments business. We have commenced a contract review for those in-scope revenue streams. The Company’s contracts with its various third parties generally do not entail significant amounts of deferred revenues. Instead, services are performed monthly and amounts are billed either monthly or quarterly. Nonetheless, the Company is presenting the quarterly disclosures in ~~process~~“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of ~~conducting a~~Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as specified.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of ~~its contracts~~the credit losses standard (ASU 2016-13) that introduced the CECL model. The amendments eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL model and ~~sources of income to ascertain that~~enhance the ~~standard~~disclosure requirements for loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The effective date is January 1, 2023. The Company does not expect it will ~~not~~ have a material impact on the consolidated ~~statement~~financial statements.

On March 31, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin Number 121 (“SAB 121”). In SAB 121, the SEC staff expressed the views of ~~operations or financial position. The review will include~~its staff regarding the ~~non interest income producing categories of~~accounting for obligations to safeguard crypto-assets an entity holds for platform users. As the Company ~~which include prepaid cards, merchant acquiring, ACH, service fees on deposit accounts, gains and losses on other real estate owned, gains and losses~~does not currently hold crypto-assets this release will not impact its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Note 12. Shareholder’s Equity

In 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors (“the Board”) authorized a common stock repurchase program (the “2021 Common Stock Repurchase Program”). Under the 2021 Common Stock Repurchase Program, repurchased shares may be reissued for various corporate purposes. The Company repurchased $10.0 million in each quarter of 2021.

On October 20, 2021, the Board approved a revised common stock repurchase program for the 2022 fiscal year (the “2022 Common Stock Repurchase Plan”).Under the 2022 Common Stock Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $15.0 million in each quarter of 2022, for a maximum amount of $60.0 million, depending on the ~~sale~~share price, securities laws and stock exchange rules which regulate such repurchases. This plan may be modified or terminated at any time. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 527,393 shares of ~~loans and other categories.~~

~~In August 2014,~~its common stock in the ~~FASB issued ASU 2014-14, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification~~open market under the 2022 Common Stock Repurchase Plan at an average cost of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure”. The guidance in this ASU affects creditors that hold government-guaranteed mortgage loans, including those guaranteed by the Federal Home Administration (FHA) and the Veterans Administration (VA). It requires that a mortgage loan be derecognized and a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met:

~~The loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure.~~

At the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under the claim.

~~At the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed.~~

~~This standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations or our consolidated financial position.~~

$28.44 per share. In ~~January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, “Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”~~. This ASU revises an entity’s accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. It also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ~~The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.~~

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”. The FASB issued this ASU to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP and disclosing key information~~about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this ASU~~are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application of this ASU is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

~~In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”.~~ This ASU simplifies several areas of accounting for share based payment award transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. For public companies, this is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and the interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the guidance in the first quarter of ~~2017,~~2021, the Company changed its presentation of treasury stock acquired through common stock repurchases.

~~In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326):Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments-Update”~~. The Update changes the accounting for credit losses on loans and debt securities. For loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, the Update requires an expected credit loss model to determine the allowance for credit losses. The expected credit loss model estimates losses for the estimated life of the financial asset. E~~xpected credit losses reflect losses over the remaining contractual life of an asset, considering the effect of voluntary prepayments and considering available information about the collectability~~

of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The resulting allowance for credit losses reflects the portion of the amortized cost basis that the entity does not expect to collect. Additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures are required upon adoption. In addition, the Update modifies the other-than-temporary impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities to require an allowance for credit impairment instead of a direct write-down, which allows for reversal of credit impairments in future periods. The guidance is effective in the first quarter of 2020 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2019. The Company is evaluating the impact the Update will have on the consolidated financial statements.

Note ~~12.~~13. Regulatory Matters

It is the policy of the Federal Reserve that financial holding companies should pay cash dividends on common stock only out of income available over the past year and only if prospective earnings retention is consistent with the organization’s expected future needs and financial condition. The policy provides that a financial holding company should not maintain a level of cash dividends that undermines the financial holding company’s ability to serve as a source of strength to its banking subsidiaries.

Various federal and state statutory provisions limit the amount of dividends that subsidiary banks can pay to their holding companies without regulatory approval. Under Delaware banking law, the Bank’s directors may declare dividends on common or preferred stock of so much of its net profits as they judge expedient, but the Bank must, before the declaration of a dividend on common stock from net profits, carry 50% of its net profits from the preceding period for which the dividend is paid to its surplus fund until its surplus fund amounts to 50% of its capital stock and thereafter must carry 25% of its net profits for the preceding period for which the dividend is paid to its surplus fund until its surplus fund amounts to 100% of its capital stock.

In addition to these explicit limitations, federal and state regulatory agencies are authorized to prohibit a banking subsidiary or financial holding company from engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice. Depending upon the circumstances, the agencies could take the position that paying a dividend would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice. In August 2015, the Bank entered into an Amendment to a 2014 Consent Order with the FDIC pursuant to which the Bank may not pay dividends without prior FDIC approval. On May 11, 2015, the Company had received a Supervisory Letterpursuant to which the Company may not pay dividends without prior Federal Reserve approval. The Federal Reserve approved the payment of the interest on the Company’s trust preferred securities which were due September 15, 2017. Future payments are subject to future approval by the Federal Reserve.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Moreover, capital requirements may be modified based upon regulatory rules or by regulatory discretion at any time reflecting a variety of factors. including deterioration in asset quality.

The following table sets forth our regulatory capital amounts and ratios for the periods indicated:

Note ~~13.~~14. Legal

On June 12, 2019, the Bank was served with a qui tam lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, New Castle County. The Delaware Department of Justice intervened in the litigation. The case is titled The State of Delaware, Plaintiff, Ex rel. Russell S. Rogers, Plaintiff-Relator, v. The Bancorp Bank, Interactive Communications International, Inc., and InComm Financial Services, Inc., Defendants. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants violated the Delaware False Claims Act by not paying balances on certain open-loop “Vanilla” prepaid cards to the State of Delaware as unclaimed property. The complaint seeks actual and treble damages, statutory penalties, and attorneys’ fees. The Bank has filed an answer denying the allegations and continues to vigorously defend against the claims. The Bank and other defendants previously filed a motion to dismiss the action, but the motion was denied and the case is in preliminary stages of discovery. At this time, the Company is unable to determine whether the ultimate resolution of the matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or operations.

The Company has received and is responding to two non-public fact-finding inquiries from the SEC, which in each case is seeking to determine if violations of the federal securities laws have occurred. The Company refers to these inquiries collectively as the SEC matters. On October 9, 2019, the Company received a subpoena ~~from~~seeking records related generally to the ~~SEC, dated March 22, 2016, relating~~Bank’s debit card issuance activity and gross dollar volume data, among other things. The Company responded to ~~an investigation~~the subpoena and subsequent subpoenas issued to the Company. Unrelated to the first inquiry, on April 10, 2020, the Company received a subpoena in connection with the Bank’s CMBS business seeking records related to various offerings as well as CMBS securities held by the Bank. Since inception of these SEC ofmatters to the ~~Company's restatement of its financial statements for~~present, the years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 and the interim periods ended March 31, 2014, September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, which restatement was filed with the SEC on September 28, 2015, and the facts and circumstances underlying the restatement. The Company ishas been cooperating fully with the ~~SEC's investigation.~~SEC. The SEC has not made any findings, or alleged any

wrongdoings, with respect to the SEC matters. The costs related to ~~respond~~responding to ~~the subpoena~~ and ~~cooperate~~cooperating with the ~~SEC's investigation have been~~SEC staff may be material, and ~~we expect such costs to~~could continue to be material at least through the completion of the ~~SEC’s investigation.~~SEC matters.

On ~~September 30, 2016,~~June 2, 2020, the ~~Company received written notice from the Internal Revenue Service that it will be conducting an audit of the Company's tax returns for the tax years 2012, 2013 and 2014. The audit is in process.~~

The Company received a letter dated August 1, 2016, demanding inspection of its books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DCGL, from legal counsel representing a shareholder (the "Demand Letter"). The Company, through outside legal counsel, responded to the Demand Letter by permitting the shareholder to inspect certain of the Company’s books and records and by objecting to other requests. On January 30, 2017, the shareholder filedBank was served with a complaint filed in the Supreme Court ~~of Chancery~~ of the State of Delaware seeking an order from the court, pursuant to Section 220 of the DGCL, compelling the Company to permit the shareholder to inspect additional books and records of the Company. The Company believes that its original response to the Demand Letter was appropriate in all respects and continues to defend against the complaint. On July 27, 2017, the Court of Chancery ruled in favor of the Company and granted an Order of Final Judgment Denying Plaintiff’s Demand To Inspect The Books And Records of Defendant. The court’s Order was subject to an appeal right which has now expired; no appeal was filed. Both the Demand Letter and the complaint threaten the commencement of a shareholder’s derivative suit against certain officers and directors of the Company

seeking damages and other remedies on behalf of the Company. We have been advised by our counsel in the matter that reasonably possible losses cannot be estimated, but we and our counsel continue to believe the claim is without merit.

~~On October 17, 2017, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) informed~~New York, titled Cascade Funding, LP – Series 6, Plaintiff v. The Bancorp Bank, ~~(the “Bank”~~Defendant. The lawsuit arises from a Purchase and Sale Agreement between Cascade Funding, LP – Series 6 (“Cascade”) and the Bank, pursuant to which Cascade was to purchase certain mortgage loan assets from the Bank for securitization. When Cascade failed to close the transaction, the Bank terminated the agreement and retained Cascade’s deposit of approximately $12.5 million. The complaint asserts three causes of action: (i) breach of contract; (ii) injunction and specific performance; and (iii) declaratory judgment. In addition, it seeks the return of Cascade’s deposit plus interest and attorneys’ fees and costs. On October 4, 2021, Cascade filed a motion for summary judgment. The court granted Cascade’s motion on April 21, 2022. In lieu of filing an appeal, the Bank entered into a settlement agreement with Cascade, dated May 6 , ~~a wholly owned subsidiary~~2022, which included the return of the deposit with an additional payment to Cascade of approximately $1.1 million. The $1.1 million will be recognized as expense in the second quarter of 2022.

On January 12, 2021, three former employees of the Bank filed separate complaints against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County. The Company subsequently removed all three lawsuits to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The cases are captioned: John Edward Barker, Plaintiff v. The Bancorp, Inc. ~~(the “Company”)~~, ~~that it intends to pursue an Order For Restitution (“Restitution Order”)~~Defendant; Alexander John Kamai, Plaintiff v. The Bancorp, Inc., Defendant; and ~~Order to Pay Civil Money Penalty (“CMP Order”) in an amount up to $2,576,000.~~John Patrick McGlynn III, Plaintiff v. The ~~FDIC’s action principally emanates~~Bancorp, Inc., Defendant. The lawsuits arise from ~~one~~the Bank’s termination of the Bank’s third-party payment processors (“Third Party Processor”) suffering an internal system programming glitch. This inadvertently resulted in consumers that engaged in signature-based point of sale transactions during the period from December 2010 to November 2014 being charged a greater fee than what was disclosed by the Bank. Impacted consumers are being reimbursed by the Third Party Processor at its own expense. The Restitution Order would require the Bank to make such reimbursements if not otherwise made by the Third Party Processor, however, the Bank is indemnified by the Third Party Processor for such reimbursements. Although the Bank is still evaluating its position with regard to the Restitution Order and the CMP Order, the Company accrued $2,500,000 of related expense in its financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2017plaintiffs’ employment in connection with the ~~CMP Order. Any amounts owed~~restructuring of its CMBS business. The plaintiffs sought damages in the following amounts: $4,135,142 (Barker), $901,088 (Kamai) and $2,909,627 (McGlynn). On June 11, 2021, the Company filed a consolidated motion to dismiss in each case. On February 25, 2022, the court granted the Company’s motion in part, dismissing McGlynn’s claims in entirety and most of Barker and Kamai’s claims. The sole claims remaining are Barker and Kamai’s breach of implied contract claims related to an unpaid bonus, for which they seek $2,000,000 and $300,000, respectively.The Company is vigorously defending against these claims. Given the early stage of the lawsuits, the Company is not yet able to determine whether the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial conditions or operations.

On September 14, 2021, Cachet Financial Services (“Cachet”) filed an adversary proceeding against the Bank in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California, titled Cachet Financial Services v. The Bancorp Bank. The case was filed within the context of Cachet’s pending Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. The Bank previously served as the Originating Depository Financial Institution (“ODFI”) for ACH transactions in connection with Cachet’s payroll services business. The complaint in the matter primarily arises from the ~~CMP Order would~~Bank’s termination of its Payroll Processing ODFI Agreement with Cachet on October 23, 2019 for safety and soundness reasons. The complaint alleges eight causes of action: (i) breach of contract; (ii) negligence; (iii) intentional interference with contract; (iv) conversion; (v) express indemnity; (vi) implied indemnity; (vii) accounting; and (viii) objection to the Bank’s proof of claim in the bankruptcy case. Cachet seeks approximately $150 million in damages and disallowance of the Bank’s proof of claim. The Bank has not ~~be subject~~been served with the complaint to ~~any indemnification or recovery from any third party.~~

~~The independent investor in Walnut Street, the securitization into which~~date but intends to vigorously defend against Cachet’s claims. On November 4, 2021, the Bank ~~sold certain loans when it discontinued its Philadelphia commercial loan operations, has taken actions which may result~~filed a motion in ~~litigation. Specifically, counsel~~the United States District Court for the ~~independent investor has requested that~~Central District of California to withdraw the ~~Note Administrator hold monthly distribution payments in escrow until the independent investor’s alternative interpretation~~reference of the ~~order of payments, as compared~~adversary proceeding to the ~~interpretation~~bankruptcy court. The motion is still pending. Given the early stage of the ~~Bank and~~lawsuit, the ~~Note Administrator,~~Company is ~~resolved. Based~~not yet able to determine whether the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on the independent investor’s request, the Note Administrator withheld the September 2017 payment to the independent investor and the Bank and indicated that it would continue to do so until this issue was resolved. Management ofCompany’s financial conditions or operations.

In addition, the Company ~~based on advice of its counsel, believes it~~ is unlikely that the Bank and Note Administrator’s interpretation will be overturned. However, if such interpretation is overturned, based upon the current model used to value Walnut Street, an estimated $8 million loss may be recognized, based on currently estimated cash flows which would be redirected from the Bank to the independent investor.

~~In addition, we are~~ a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of ~~our~~ business. ~~Management~~The Company believes that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on ~~our~~the Company’s financial condition or operations.

Note ~~14.~~15. Segment Financials

The Company performed a strategic evaluation of its businesses in the third quarter of 2014. As a result of the evaluation, the Company decided to discontinue its commercial lending operations, as described in Note ~~15,~~16, Discontinued Operations. The shift from a traditional bank balance sheet led the Company to evaluate its continuing operations. Based on the continuing operations of the Company, it was determined that there would be ~~four~~4 segments of the business: specialty finance, payments, corporate and discontinued operations. The chief decision maker for these segments is the Chief Executive Officer. Specialty finance includes ~~commercial loan sales,~~the origination of non-SBA CRE loans, SBA loans, ~~leasing~~direct lease financing and ~~SBLOCs~~security-backed lines of credit, cash value insurance policy-backed lines of credit and ~~any~~ deposits generated by those business lines. Payments include prepaid ~~cards, merchant~~card accounts, card payments, ACH processing and ~~affinity accounts.~~deposits generated by those business lines. Corporate includes the Company’s investment portfolio, corporate overhead and ~~other~~ non-allocated expenses. Investment income is ~~allocated~~reallocated to the payments segment. These operating segments reflect the way the Company views its current operations.

The Company performed a strategic evaluation of its businesses in the third quarter of 2014 and decided to discontinue its Philadelphia commercial lending operations to focus on its specialty finance lending. The Company has since disposed of the vast majority of related loans ~~which constitute the commercial loan portfolio are~~and other real estate owned. While in the process of ~~disposition.~~ ~~As such,~~disposition, financial results of the commercial lending operations ~~are~~were presented as separate from continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations and assets of the commercial lending operations to be disposed ~~are~~of were presented as assets ~~held for sale~~held-for-sale on the consolidated balance sheets.As disposition efforts were winding down, discontinued loans of $61.6 million were reclassified to loans held for investment in the first quarter of 2022. These loans will accordingly be accounted for as such, and included in related tables as management continues related collections. Discontinued other real estate owned of $17.3 million which constituted the remainder of discontinued assets was reclassified to the other real estate owned caption on the balance sheet.

~~Overview~~Key Performance Indicators

We use a number of key performance indicators to measure our overall financial performance. We describe how we calculate and use a number of these performance indicators and analyze their results below.

Return on assets and return on equity. Two performance indicators we believe are commonly used within the banking industry to measure overall financial performance are return on assets and return on equity. Return on assets measures the amount of earnings compared to the level of assets utilized to generate those earnings. It is derived by dividing net income by average assets. Return on equity measures the amount of earnings compared to the equity utilized to generate those earnings. It is derived by dividing net income by average shareholders’ equity.

Net interest margin and credit losses. The largest component of our earnings is net interest income, or the difference between the interest earned on our interest-earning assets consisting of loans and investments, less the interest on our funding, consisting primarily of deposits. The key performance indicator for net interest income is net interest margin, derived by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Higher levels of earnings and net interest income, on lower levels of assets, equity and interest-earning assets are generally desirable. However, these indicators must be considered in light of regulatory capital requirements which impact equity, and credit risk inherent in loans. Accordingly, the magnitude of credit losses is an additional key performance indicator.

Other performance indicators. Other performance indicators we use include loan growth, non-interest income growth, the level of non-interest expense and various capital measures.

Results of performance indicators. Our strategies continue to target loan niches which we believe are lower risk than certain other forms of lending. These include: multi-family (apartment) loans in selected national regions; loans collateralized by securities (“SBLOC”) and the cash value of life insurance (“IBLOC”); SBA loans, a significant portion of which are government guaranteed or must have loan-to-value ratios lower than other forms of lending; and leasing to which we have access to underlying vehicles. Loan balances in these categories have grown significantly in recent years, which we believe has contributed generally to increases in key performance indicators.

A 12% increase in net income, to $29.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, from $26.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, was reflected in increases in return on assets and equity. In the first quarter of 2022, return on assets and return on equity amounted to 1.68% and 18.01% (annualized), respectively, compared to 1.56% and 17.88% (annualized) in the first quarter of 2021. Net interest income decreased $904,000, reflecting a $3.4 million decrease in Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) related interest and fees, and a $3.9 million decrease in securities interest. The reduction in securities interest reflected lower balances and lower yields resulting from the continuing lower rate environment. Increased returns on assets and equity in 2022 also reflected higher non-interest income including higher fees related to non-SBA commercial bridge loan repayments. Lower non-interest expense also contributed to higher net income, as salaries and employee benefits decreased $1.8 million reflecting lower incentive compensation expense while FDIC insurance expense decreased $1.4 million reflecting the impact of the reclassification of certain deposits to non-brokered. Net interest margin was 3.12% in the first quarter of 2022 versus 3.34% in the first quarter of 2021. The reduction in 2022 reflects lower yields on securities resulting from the aforementioned lower rate environment which also resulted in lower loan yields. One capital measure utilized in the banking industry is the ratio of equity to assets, which is derived by dividing period-end shareholders’ equity by period-end total assets. At March 31, 2022, that ratio was 9.21%, compared to 7.70% a year earlier. The increase reflected higher levels of capital from retained earnings while assets, after increasing temporarily due to stimulus payments at March 31, 2021, decreased in subsequent periods due to related outflows.

Overview

We are a Delaware financial holding company and our primary subsidiary, which we wholly ~~owned,~~own, is The Bancorp Bank, which we refer to as the Bank. The vast majority of our revenue and income is currently generated through the Bank. In our continuing ~~lending~~ operations, we have four primary lines of specialty lending: ~~securities-backed lines of credit, or~~

SBLOC, ~~automobile fleet~~IBLOC, and ~~other equipment~~ investment advisor financing;

leasing ~~Small Business Administration, or~~(direct lease financing);

small business loans, primarily SBA ~~and~~ loans, and

non-SBA commercial real estate bridge (“CRE”) loans ~~generated for sale into capital markets primarily through commercial loan securitizations, or CMBS.~~ .

SBLOCs and IBLOCs are loans which are generated through ~~institutional banking~~ affinity groups and are respectively collateralized by marketable ~~securities.~~securities and the cash value of insurance policies. SBLOCs are typically offered in conjunction with brokerage accounts and are offered nationally. ~~Automobile~~IBLOC loans are typically viewed as an alternative to standard policy loans from insurance companies and are utilized by our existing advisor base as well as insurance agents throughout the country. Investment advisor financing are loans made to investment advisors for purposes of debt refinance, acquisition of another investment firm or internal succession. Vehicle fleet and, to a lesser extent, other equipment leases are generated in a number of Atlantic ~~coast~~Coast and other ~~states.~~states and are collateralized primarily by vehicles. SBA loans are made nationally and are collateralized by commercial properties and other types of collateral. Our non-SBA commercial real estate bridge loans, at fair value, are primarily collateralized by multi-family properties (apartment buildings), and to a lesser extent, by hotel and retail properties. These loans were originally generated for sale ~~into CMBS capital markets~~through securitizations. In 2020, we decided to retain these loans on our balance sheet as interest earning assets and resumed originating such loans in the third quarter of 2021. These new originations are identified as real estate bridge loans and are held for investment in the loan portfolio. Prior originations originally intended for securitizations continue to be accounted for at fair value, and are included in the balance sheet in “Commercial loans, at fair value.”

The majority of our deposit accounts and non-interest income are generated in our payments business line, the name for which has been changed to Fintech Solutions Group, which consists of consumer deposit accounts accessed by prepaid or debit cards, or issuing, automated clearing house, or ACH accounts, other payments such as rapid funds transfer and the collection of payments through credit

card companies on behalf of merchants. The issuing deposit accounts are comprised of debit and prepaid card accounts that are generated by independent companies that market directly to end users. Our issuing deposit account types are diverse and include: consumer and business debit, general purpose reloadable prepaid, pre-tax medical spending benefit, payroll, gift, government, corporate incentive, reward, business payment accounts and others. Our ACH accounts facilitate bill payments, and our acquiring accounts provide clearing and settlement services for payments made ~~nationally.~~

~~In our~~to merchants which must be settled through associations such as Visa or MasterCard. We also provide banking ~~operations, we focus on providing our~~ services ~~on a national basis~~ to organizations with a pre-existing customer base ~~who can use one or more selected banking services~~ tailored to support or complement the services provided by these organizations to their customers. These services include ~~private label banking; credit~~loan and ~~debit card processing~~deposit accounts for ~~merchants affiliated with independent service organizations; and prepaid cards, also known as stored value cards, for insurers, incentive plans, large retail chains and consumer service organizations.~~investment advisory companies through our institutional banking department. We typically provide these services under the name and through the facilities of each organization with whom we develop a relationship. We refer to this, generally, as affinity ~~group~~ banking. ~~Our private label banking, merchant processing and prepaid card programs are a source~~

The increase in our net income to $29.0 million for the first quarter of ~~fee~~2022, from $26.0 million for the first quarter of 2021, resulted primarily from an increase in non-interest income and ~~low-cost deposits.~~

In the third quarter of 2014, we decided to discontinue our Philadelphia-based commercial lending operations. The loans which constitute that portfolio are in the process of disposition. This represents a strategic shift to a focus on our national specialty lending programs including small fleet leasing, SBLOC, CMBS origination and SBA lending. We anticipate using the proceeds from disposition to acquire investment securities and to provide liquidity to fund growth in our continuing specialty lending lines. Yields we obtain from reinvestment of the proceeds will be subject to economic and other conditions at the time of reinvestment, including market interest rates, many of which will be beyond our control. We cannot predict whether income resulting from the reinvestment of loans we hold for sale resulting from discontinued operations will match or exceed the amount from the sold loans. Of the approximate $1.1 billion in book value of loans in that commercial and residential portfolio as of the September 30, 2014 date of discontinuance of operations, $315.0 million of loans and other real estate owned remain in assets held for sale on the balance sheet, which reflects the impact of related sales, paydowns and fair value charges. Additionally, the balance sheet reflects $107.7 million in investment in unconsolidated entity, Walnut Street, which is comprised of notes owned by the Company as a result of the sale of certain discontinued loans. In the third quarter, the independent investor in Walnut Street took actions which may result in litigation which may result in financial loss to the Bank, although in the opinion of counsel that is unlikely (see note 13 to the financial statements).

The results of the first nine months of 2017 reflected a return to profitability, consistent with our business plan and budget. The improvement reflected revenue growth, expense reductions, the conclusion of BSA lookback expense in 2016 and credit related charges in discontinued operations in 2016. Year to date net income for 2017 was $34.1 million. Continuing growthdecreases in net interest income ~~resulted~~and non-interest expense. The $904,000 decrease in net interest income reflected reductions in securities interest partially offset by increases in loan interest, including interest from loan ~~growth including SBLOC~~growth. Increases in loan interest were offset by a $3.9 million decrease in securities interest resulting from lower securities balances ~~which grew 16% year over year with leasing~~ and ~~SBA balances each growing 11% year over year. In addition to~~ the impact of ~~loan~~the lower rate environment. Excluding the impact of PPP, small business loans (“SBL”), primarily SBA, totaled $705.2 million compared to $692.1 million at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, an increase of 1.9%. However, the impact of SBL growth ~~Federal Reserve rate increases also~~on interest income was more than offset by a $3.4 million reduction in PPP related fees and interest, which resulted in ~~higher~~a $2.9 million reduction in SBL loan interest. SBLOC, IBLOC and investment advisor loans totaled $2.21 billion at March 31, 2022, compared to $1.68 billion at March 31, 2021, reflecting 31.7% annual growth. Related interest ~~income, while interest~~increased $3.8 million. Interest expense ~~increased to a lesser extent. The Bank’s~~decreased $165,000.

Prepaid, debit card and related fees are the largest driver of non-interest income. ~~Fees in~~Such fees for the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2017~~2022 decreased $556,000 over the comparable 2021 period. Leasing income increased $8,000 over the prior year quarter. Both periods reflected vehicle sales at relatively higher market prices due to vehicle shortages. For those periods, non-interest expense decreased $3.5 million which reflected a $1.8 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits, a $1.4 million reduction in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance expense and a $1.3 million decrease in legal expense. At December 31, 2021 discontinued assets consisted of $61.6 million of loans and $17.3 million of other real estate owned. In the first quarter of 2022, discontinued loans were ~~comparable~~reclassified to loans held for investment, as efforts to sell the loans have been winding down. These loans will accordingly be accounted for as such, and included in related tables. Discontinued other real estate owned which constituted the remainder of discontinued assets was reclassified to the ~~first nine months of 2016 reflecting~~other real estate owned caption on the exit of a client which changed ownership and the termination of several programs whose sponsors decided to exit prepaid cards. Those volumes were partially offset by organic growth in other programs. A decrease in assets from $4.2 billion at September 30, 2016 to $4.0 billion at September 30, 2017 reflected the exit of less profitable deposit relationships. balance sheet.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accounting and reporting policies conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe that the determination of our allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses on loans, leases and ~~lease losses,~~securities, our determination of the fair value of financial instruments and the level in which an instrument is placed within the valuation hierarchy, ~~our determination of other than temporary impairment,~~and stock compensation and income ~~taxes~~tax accounting involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than our other significant accounting policies.

We determine our allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses using the current expected credit losses method, or CECL, with the objective of maintaining a reserve level we believe to be sufficient to absorb our estimated probable credit losses. We base our determination of the adequacy of the allowance on periodic evaluations of our loan portfolio and other relevant factors. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among others, expected default probabilities, the amount of loss we may incur on a defaulted loan, expected commitment usage, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on ~~impaired~~credit deteriorated loans, value of collateral, estimated losses on consumer loans, and ~~residential mortgages, and general amounts for~~ historical loss experience. We also evaluate economic conditions and uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent risks in our loan portfolio. To the extent actual outcomes differ from our estimates, we may need additional provisions for ~~loan~~credit losses. Any such additional provisions for ~~loan~~credit losses will be a direct charge to our earnings. See “Allowance for ~~Loan and Lease~~Credit Losses”.

The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. We estimate the fair value of a financial instrument using a variety of valuation methods. Where financial instruments are actively traded and have quoted market prices, quoted market prices are used for fair value. When the financial instruments are not actively traded, other observable market inputs, such as quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, may be used, if available, to determine fair value. When observable market prices do not exist, we estimate fair value. Our valuation methods and inputs consider factors such as types of underlying assets or liabilities, rates of estimated credit losses, interest rate or discount rate and collateral. Our best estimate of fair value involves assumptions including, but not limited to, various performance indicators, such as historical and projected default and recovery rates, credit ratings, current delinquency rates, loan-to-value ratios and the possibility of obligor refinancing.

At the end of each quarter, we assess the valuation hierarchy for each asset or liability measured. From time to time, assets or liabilities may be transferred within hierarchy levels due to changes in availability of observable market inputs to measure fair value at the measurement date. Transfers into or out of hierarchy levels are based upon the fair value at the beginning of the reporting period.

We periodically review our investment portfolio to determine whether unrealized losses on securities ~~are temporary,~~result from credit, based on evaluations of the creditworthiness of the issuers or guarantors, and underlying collateral, as applicable. In addition, we consider the continuing performance of the securities. We recognize credit losses through the ~~income statement.~~Consolidated Statements of Operations. If management believes market value losses are ~~temporary and that we have the ability and intention to hold those securities to maturity,~~not credit related, we recognize the reduction in other comprehensive income, through equity. We evaluate whether a credit loss exists by considering primarily the following factors: (a) the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost of the security, (b) changes in the financial condition, credit rating and near-term prospects of the issuer, (c) whether the issuer is current on contractually obligated interest and principal payments, (d) changes in the financial condition of the security’s underlying collateral and (e) the payment structure of the security. If a credit loss is determined, we estimate expected future cash flows to estimate the credit loss amount with a quantitative and qualitative process that incorporates information received from first-party sources and internal assumptions and judgments regarding the future performance of the security.

We account for our stock-based compensation plans based on the fair value of the awards made, which include stock options, restricted stock, and performance based shares. To assess the fair value of the awards made, management makes assumptions as to expected stock price volatility, option terms, forfeiture rates and dividend rates. All these estimates and assumptions may be susceptible to significant change that may impact earnings in future periods.

We account for income taxes under the liability method whereby we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the difference between the carrying values on our consolidated financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense (benefit) is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. ~~We currently use the tax expenses as calculated on year-to-date numbers, since small changes in annual estimates would have a significant change~~

Results of Operations

First quarter 2022 to first quarter 2021

Net Income: Income from continuing operations before income taxes was $38.1 million in the ~~annual effective rate.~~

~~Financial Statement Restatement; Regulatory Actions~~

~~We have adjusted our financial statement presentation for items related~~first quarter of 2022 compared to discontinued operations. Separately, we have restated our financial statements for periods from 2010 through September 30, 2014, the last date through which financial statements previously had been filed prior to our 2015 filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The restatement reflected the recognition of provisions for loan losses and loan charge-offs for discontinued operations in periods earlier than those in which those charges were initially recognized. The majority of these loan charges were originally recognized in 2014, primarily$35.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter ~~when commercial lending operations were discontinued. An additional $28.5 million~~ of ~~discontinued operations losses that were not previously reported were included within these periods. Also, $12.7 million of losses incurred in 2015 related to loans that were resolved~~

before the issuance date of our financial statements and were reflected in our 2014 financial statements. Substantially all of the losses and corresponding restatement adjustments resulted from the discontinued commercial loan operations.

The Bank has entered into a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of a Consent Order, or the 2014 Consent Order, with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, which became effective on September 5, 2014. The Bank took this action without admitting or denying any charges of unsafe or unsound banking practices or violations of law or regulation relating to the Bank’s BSA compliance program.

The 2014 Consent Order requires the Bank to take certain affirmative actions to comply with its BSA obligations, among them: appoint a qualified BSA/OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) officer; revise the written BSA Compliance Program; develop and implement additional policies and procedures for suspicious activity monitoring and reporting; review and enhance customer due diligence and risk assessment processes; review past account activity to determine whether suspicious activity was properly identified and reported; strengthen internal controls, including augmenting oversight by the Bank’s Board of Directors of BSA activities; establish an independent testing program; and develop policies and procedures to govern staffing and training for BSA compliance.

To date, the Bank has implemented multiple upgrades that address the requirements of the 2014 Consent Order, such as appointing a qualified BSA/OFAC officer, increasing oversight and staffing of the BSA compliance function, improving practices and procedures to monitor and report transactions, and increasing training, as well as adopting an independent testing program to ensure adherence to more effective BSA standards.

Until the Bank submits to the FDIC (and the FDIC approves) a BSA report summarizing the completion of its corrective actions, the 2014 Consent Order places some restrictions on certain activities as follows: the Bank is restricted from signing and boarding new independent sales organizations, issuing new non-benefit related reloadable prepaid card programs, establishing new distribution channels for existing non-benefit reloadable prepaid card programs and originating Automated Clearing House transactions for new merchant-related payments. Until we receive the FDIC’s approval, restrictions in these specific areas may potentially impact their growth. We do not believe that these restrictions will have a material impact on current revenue levels. The Bank utilized one primary consultant related to its BSA-AML (Anti-Money Laundering) program refinement and one primary consultant related to conducting a lookback review of historical transactions to confirm that suspicious activity was properly identified and reported in accordance with applicable law. The consultant assisting with the BSA-AML program refinement completed its work in 2014. The consultant performing the BSA lookback completed its work in July 2016, and no additional related fees are expected to be incurred. Suspicious activity reports resulting from the lookback have been filed.

On August 27, 2015, the Bank entered into an Amendment to Consent Order, or the Amendment, with the FDIC, amending the 2014 Consent Order. The Bank took this action without admitting or denying any additional charges of unsafe or unsound banking practices or violations of law or regulation relating to continued weaknesses in the Bank’s BSA compliance program. The Amendment provides that the Bank may not declare or pay any dividend without the prior written consent of the FDIC and for certain assurances regarding management.

On May 11, 2015, the Federal Reserve issued a letter, or the Supervisory Letter, to the Bank as a result of the 2014 Consent Order and the Amendment, (which, at the time of the Supervisory Letter, was in proposed form), which provides that we may not pay any dividends on our common stock, make any distributions to our European entities or make any interest payments on our trust preferred securities, without the prior written approval of the Federal Reserve. It further provides that we may not incur any debt (excluding payables in the ordinary course of business) or redeem any shares of our stock, without the prior written approval of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve approved the payment of the interest on our trust preferred securities which was due September 15, 2017. Future payments are subject~~to future approval by the Federal Reserve.~~

~~On December 23, 2015, the Bank~~ entered into a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Amended Consent Order, Order for Restitution, and Order to Pay Civil Money Penalty with the FDIC, which we refer to as the 2015 Consent Order. The Bank took this action without admitting or denying any charges of violations of law or regulation. The 2015 Consent Order supercedes in its entirety the terms of a previous consent order entered into in 2012.

The 2015 Consent Order was based on FDIC allegations regarding electronic fund transfer, or EFT, error resolution practices, account termination practices and fee practices of various third parties with whom the Bank had previously provided, or currently provides, deposit-related products which we refer to as Third Parties. The specific operational practices of the third parties identified by the FDIC were the following: practices related to the termination of a third-party rewards program tied to deposit accounts, including the timing of the notice of termination, and the disclosure of the effects of such termination on the consumer’s ability to obtain unredeemed rewards; practices performed by third parties related to the time frames within which we must respond to a consumer’s notice of error related to electronic transactions related to various types of deposit accounts; and, practices related to the timing and frequency of disclosed account fees and the manner by which the accountholder is notified of these fees in periodic statements which are generated by third parties. The 2015 Consent Order continues the Bank's obligations originally set forth in the 2012 Consent Order, including its obligations to increase board oversight of the Bank's compliance management system, or CMS, improve the Bank's CMS, enhance its

~~internal audit program, increase its management and oversight of Third Parties, and correct any apparent violations of law.~~ The 2015 Consent Order also directs the Bank’s Board to establish a Complaint and Error Claim Oversight and Review Committee, which we refer to as the Complaint and Error Claim Committee, to review and oversee the Bank’s processes and practices for handling, monitoring and resolving consumer complaints and EFT error claims (whether received directly or through Third Parties) and to review management's plans for correcting any weaknesses that may be found in such processes and practices; and implement a corrective action plan regarding those prepaid cardholders who asserted or attempted to assert EFT error claims and to provide restitution to cardholders harmed by EFT error resolution practices. The Bank’s Board of Directors appointed the required Complaint and Error Claim Committee on January 29, 2016. The Bank corrective action plan is in process.

We received a subpoena from the SEC, dated March 22, 2016, relating to an investigation by the SEC of the restatement of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 and the interim periods ended March 31, 2014, September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, which restatement was filed with the SEC on September 28, 2015, and the facts and circumstances underlying the restatement. We are cooperating fully with the SEC's investigation. The costs to respond to the subpoena and cooperate with the SEC's investigation have been material, and we expect such costs to continue to be material at least through the completion of the SEC’s investigation.

On October 5, 2016, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) released its final Prepaid Card Rule (Final Prepaid Rule), which it first proposed by publication on December 23, 2014. The general effective date of the Final Prepaid Rule was October 1, 2017, but applicability of certain requirements of the Final Prepaid Rule are delayed until October 1, 2018. However, on April 20, 2017 the CFPB released a final rule delaying the general effective date of the Final Prepaid Rule until April 1, 2018. The Final Prepaid Rule regulates certain prepaid products, including physical cards as well as codes and other access devices. The Final Prepaid Rule did not materially deviate from the terms of the proposed rule that we have disclosed in previous filings. The Final Prepaid Rule among other things, causes prepaid products to be fully-covered by Regulation E, which implements the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, and to be covered by Regulation Z, which implements the Truth in Lending Act, to the extent the prepaid product accesses a “credit” feature.

The Final Prepaid Rule and related commentary is over 1,600 pages in length and provides significant discussion, materials and commentary that we are currently assessing. The Final Prepaid Rule includes a significant number of changes to the regulatory framework for prepaid products, some of which include: (a) establishing a definition of “prepaid account” within Regulation E that includes reloadable and non-reloadable physical cards, as well as codes or other devices, and focuses on how the product is issued and used; (b) modifying Regulation E to require that short form and long form disclosures be provided to a consumer prior to a consumer agreeing to acquire a prepaid account with certain exceptions and with specified forms that, if used, would provide a safe harbor for financial institutions; (c) extending to prepaid accounts the periodic transaction history and statement requirements of Regulation E, with certain specified permissible alternatives to the provision of periodic statements; (d) extending the error resolution and limited liability provisions of Regulation E to prepaid cards, with some modifications specific to prepaid cards; (e) requiring financial institutions to provide prepaid account agreements to the CFPB and to either post them to the issuer’s website or provide them upon request of the consumer in specified manner and timeframes; (f) extending Regulation Z’s credit card rules and disclosure requirements to prepaid accounts that provide overdraft protection and other credit features and incorporating into Regulation Z a new definition of “hybrid prepaid-credit card”; (g) requiring an issuer to obtain a prepaid account holder’s consent prior to adding overdraft services or other credit features and prohibiting the issuer from adding overdraft services or other credit features for at least 30 calendar days after a consumer registers the prepaid account; and (h) prohibiting the application of different terms and conditions, such as charging different fees, to a prepaid account depending on whether the consumer elects to link the prepaid account to overdraft services or other credit features.

The Final Prepaid Rule represents a material change in the rules and regulations governing prepaid cards. We rely on prepaid cards as the largest single component of our deposits and the largest single component of our non-interest income. We are continuing to evaluate the Prepaid Card Rule and the impact it may have on our business and our results of operations. We are in the process of evaluating and building implementation plans for the Prepaid Card Rule and, as such, we cannot reasonably quantify the financial impact, if any, that implementation of the Prepaid Card Rule may have on the Bank’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

On July 10, 2017, the CFPB issued a final rule to regulate arbitration agreements in contracts for specified consumer financial product and services (Arbitration Rule). The Arbitration Rule prohibits covered providers of certain consumer financial products and services from using an agreement with a consumer that provides for arbitration of any future dispute between the parties to bar the consumer from filing or participating in a class action concerning the covered consumer financial product or service. The Arbitration Rule also requires covered providers that are involved in an arbitration pursuant to a pre-dispute arbitration agreement to submit specified arbitral records to the CFPB together with specified court records. The Arbitration Rule becomes effective on March 19, 2018; however, on November 1, 2017, President Trump signed legislation to repeal the Arbitration Rule.

inadvertently resulted in consumers that engaged in signature-based point of sale transactions during the period from December 2010 to November 2014 being charged a greater fee than what was disclosed by the Bank. Impacted consumers are being reimbursed by the Third Party Processor at its own expense. The Restitution Order would require the Bank to make such reimbursements if not otherwise made by the Third Party Processor, however, the Bank is indemnified by the Third Party Processor for such reimbursements. Although the Bank is still evaluating its position with regard to the Restitution Order and the CMP Order, the Company accrued $2,500,000 of related expense in its financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 in connection with the CMP Order. Any amounts owed from the CMP Order would not be subject to any indemnification or recovery from any third party.

~~Results of Operations~~

~~Third quarter 2017 to third quarter 2016~~

~~Net Income:~~ The improvement in net income in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2017 reflected revenue growth, expense reductions, the conclusion of BSA lookback expense in 2016 and credit related charges in discontinued operations in 2016. 2021. Net income from continuing operations for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 was ~~$6.8~~$29.0 million, or ~~$0.12~~$0.50 per diluted share, compared to ~~net loss of $1.5~~$26.1 million, or ~~$0.03~~$0.44 per diluted share, for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. Income increased between those respective periods primarily as a result of higher non-interest income and lower non-interest expense. After discontinued operations, net income for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 was $7.3~~2022 amounted to $29.0 million, compared to ~~a net loss of $25.6~~$26.0 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. Net interest income for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 compared~~2022 decreased 1.7%, to $52.9 million from $53.8 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016 increased to $27.9 million~~2021. The decrease reflected reductions in securities interest resulting from ~~$23.5 million primarily~~lower balances, and lower yields which reflected the impact of Federal Reserve rate reductions. Such decreases were partially offset by increases in loan interest as a result of higher loan ~~balances and higher yields, reflecting the Federal Reserve’s rate increases.~~balances. The provision for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses increased ~~$50,000~~$685,000 to ~~$800,000~~$1.5 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 compared to ~~$750,000~~an $822,000 provision in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021 reflecting the impact of higher allowances on specific loans. Non-interest income (excluding security gains and losses) increased~~$9.6~~ $1.0 million, reflecting an increase in net realized and unrealized gains on non-SBA CRE bridge loans, at fair value of $1.4 million which resulted primarily from ~~an increase~~increases of fees related to related repayments in ~~gain on sale~~2022. The vast majority of non-SBA CRE bridge loans ~~into two securitizations.~~at fair value are comprised of multi-family (apartment) loans. Prepaid, debit card and related fees are the primary driver of non-interest income and decreased $556,000, or 2.9% to $18.7 million in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $19.2 million for the first quarter of 2021. Non-interest expense decreased $3.5 million, or 8.4%, to $38.4 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 was comparable~~2022, compared to ~~third~~$41.9 million in the first quarter ~~2016. Cost reductions~~of 2021, reflecting a $1.8 million decrease in ~~data processing, consulting and other expenses were largely offset by~~salary expense, a ~~$2.5~~$1.4 million ~~civil money penalty~~decrease in ~~third quarter 2017 (see note 13 to the financial statements)~~our FDIC insurance expense and a ~~$1.1~~$1.3 million ~~contractual exit fee. The exit fee~~decrease in legal expense. Additionally, the 2022 effective tax rate was for a data processing contracts which will be significantly exceeded by future savings. Lower data processing expense reflected the impact of a renegotiated data processing contract and the phase out of an affinity program. A $21.5 million loss from discontinued operations in third quarter 2016 resulted primarily from the writedown of a $42 million loan secured by a shopping mall.lower compared to other recent periods. Diluted income per share was ~~$0.13~~$0.50 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 compared to ~~$0.54 loss~~$0.44 diluted income per share in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016~~2021 primarily reflecting the ~~factors noted above.~~ above factors.

Net Interest Income: Our net interest income for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 increased~~2022 decreased $904,000, or 1.7%, to ~~$27.9~~$52.9 million, ~~an increase of $4.4 million, or 18.5%~~ from ~~$23.5~~$53.8 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. Our interest income for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 increased~~2022 decreased to ~~$31.9~~$55.9 million, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$5.2~~$1.1 million, or ~~19.4%~~1.9%, from ~~$26.7~~$56.9 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. The ~~increase~~decrease in interest income resulted primarily from reductions in securities interest resulting from lower balances, and lower yields which reflected the impact of Federal Reserve rate reductions. Those decreases were partially offset by the impact of higher loan ~~balances and higher yields.~~balances. Our average loans and leases increased to ~~$1.84~~$5.14 billion for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$1.68~~$4.48 billion for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016,~~2021, an increase of ~~$154.7 million.~~$656.8 million, or 14.6%. Related interest income increased ~~$3.7~~$2.7 million on a tax equivalent basis. The increase in average loans reflected ~~organic~~ growth in ~~leasing,~~SBLOC, IBLOC, investment advisor loans, direct lease financing, and real estate bridge loans partially offset by decreases in PPP loans. Small business loans which also grew, have generally been comprised of SBA ~~and SBLOC lending. Our average investment securities~~loans; however, in 2021 they reflected larger balances of pandemic-related PPP loans guaranteed by the U.S. government, the majority of which have been repaid, accounting for the decrease. The balance of our commercial loans, at fair value also decreased, ~~to $1.25 billion for~~as a result of non-SBA CRE bridge loan payoffs. In the third quarter of ~~2017 from $1.42 billion for~~2021 we resumed originating

such loans, referred to as real estate bridge loans. Of the ~~third quarter of 2016, as investment securities were replaced with higher yielding loans. Notwithstanding the decrease~~total $2.7 million increase in ~~average balances, related tax equivalent~~loan interest income ~~increased $412,000~~ on a tax equivalent basis, the largest increases were $3.8 million for SBLOC, IBLOC and investment advisor financing and $1.3 million for all real estate bridge loans. SBA loan interest decreased $2.9 million, which reflected a $3.4 million decrease in PPP related interest and fees. While March 31, 2022 leasing balances were 11.2% higher than a year earlier, related interest grew only $165,000 as a result of ~~higher~~lower yields. Our average investment securities of $943.1 million for the first quarter of 2022 decreased $254.0 million from $1.20 billion for the first quarter of 2021. Related tax equivalent interest income decreased $3.9 million primarily reflecting a decrease in yields and secondarily reflecting a decrease in balances. Yields on ~~both~~ loans and ~~investment~~ securities ~~increased~~decreased as a result of the lower rate environment, which resulted in lower rates on new loans while higher rate loans continued to repay, partially offset by the impact of weighted average 4.8% interest rate floors on the ~~Federal Reserve’s rate increases on variable rate~~non-SBA CRE bridge loans, ~~and securities. Rates paid on deposits and resulting~~at fair value. While interest income decreased by $1.1 million, interest expense ~~adjusted only partially to the Federal Reserve’s rate increases.~~decreased by $165,000.

Our net interest margin (calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest earning assets) for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 increased~~2022 was 3.12% compared to ~~3.26% from 2.69%~~3.34% for the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 22 basis points. While the yield on interest earning assets decreased 24 basis points, the cost of deposits and interest bearing liabilities decreased 2 basis points, or a net change of 22 basis points. Balances at the Federal Reserve earn lower rates of interest than loans and securities. Average interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank decreased $61.2 million, or 8.2%, to $686.6 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016, an increase~~2022 from $747.8 million in the first quarter of ~~57 basis points. The increase in~~2021. In 2021, the net interest margin ~~reflected~~benefited from interest and fees related to PPP loans, which were $3.4 million higher ~~yields on loans~~than those in 2022, and ~~investment securities reflecting~~which did not proportionately increase average interest earning assets. The net interest margin also reflected the impact of ~~the aforementioned Federal Reserve rate increases~~4.8% weighted average floors on non-SBA CRE bridge loans, at fair value. Yields on variable rate loans generally fell as a result of the Federal Reserve rate reductions in 2020, and ~~securities.~~continued to decrease as new loans were made at lower rates while higher rate loans repaid. In the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017,~~2022, the average yield on our loans ~~increased~~decreased to ~~4.66%~~3.93% from ~~4.19%~~4.27% for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016, an increase~~2021, a decrease of 4734 basis points. Yields on taxable investment securities in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 increased~~2022 decreased to ~~2.86%~~2.08% compared to ~~2.43%~~2.95% for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016, an increase~~2021, a decrease of 4387 basis points. The net interest margin also benefited from the reinvestment of maturities of investment securities into higher yielding loans. Average interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank increased $42.5 million, or 13.1% to $366.7 million in the third quarter of 2017 from $324.2 million in the third quarter of 2016. That difference reflects a minimal percentage of total deposits, and resulted primarily from daily fluctuations in deposits and loans. The interest cost of total deposits and interest bearing liabilities ~~increased~~decreased 2 basis points to ~~0.43%~~0.19% for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 as~~2022 compared to ~~0.33%~~0.21% in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016. The cost~~2021. In March 2022, the Federal Reserve began raising rates, with an initial hike of ~~deposits increased significantly less than~~.25%, and additional hikes projected going forward. While the ~~increase in variable rates on~~majority of our loans and ~~investments primarily due~~securities are rate sensitive and should increase as rates increase, those cumulative hikes must exceed the difference between current loan rates and rate floors on certain loans. Accordingly, cumulative rate hikes approaching 2% might be required to ~~contractual provisions related to prepaid card deposits. Those contracts result in only partial adjustment to Federal Reserve rate increases.~~increase net interest income. Please see “Asset and Liability Management.”

For the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017,~~2022, average interest earning assets increased to ~~$3.52~~$6.77 billion, an increase of ~~$49.3~~$341.6 million, or ~~1.4%~~5.3%, from ~~$3.47~~$6.43 billion in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. The increase reflected ~~increases in~~increased average balances of loans and leases of ~~$154.7~~$656.8 million, or ~~9.2%~~14.6%, ~~and $42.5~~partially offset by decreased average investment securities of $254.0 million, or 13.1%, of average interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank, net of decreases in average balances of investment securities. For third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016, average securities decreased $173.6 million, or 12.2%, to $1.25 billion from $1.42 billion.21.2%. For those respective periods, average demand and interest checking deposits ~~decreased $25.6~~increased $73.5 million,

or ~~0.8%~~1.3%, ~~to $3.22 billion from $3.25 billion. The decrease reflected the planned exit~~primarily as a result of ~~certain less profitable~~ deposit ~~relationships, which was partially offset by~~ growth in prepaid and debit card accounts. The $124.9 million increase in average savings and money market balances between these respective periods reflected growth in interest bearing accounts offered by our affinity group clients to prepaid and debit card account customers. A portion of the 2021 deposits resulted from economic stimulus payments related ~~deposits.~~ to the pandemic, and was temporary. The interest expense shown for demand and interest checking is primarily comprised of interest paid to our affinity groups.

Provision for ~~Loan and Lease~~Credit Losses. Our provision for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses was ~~$800,000~~$1.5 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 compared to ~~$750,000~~$822,000 for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021. The increase reflected higher allowances on specific loans while both periods reflected the impact of loan growth on the CECL model. The allowance for ~~loan~~credit losses ~~increased to $7.3~~was $19.1 million, or ~~0.53%~~0.46%, of total loans at ~~September 30, 2017, from $6.3~~March 31, 2022, compared to $17.8 million, or ~~0.52%~~0.48%, of total loans at December 31, ~~2016~~. 2021. We believe that our allowance is adequate to cover expected ~~losses~~losses. For more information about our provision and allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses and our loss experience, see “Financial Condition-Allowance for ~~loan and lease~~

credit losses”, “-Net charge-offs,” and “-Non-performing loans, loans 90 days delinquent and still accruing, and troubled debt restructurings,” below and Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income was ~~$28.5~~$25.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 compared to ~~$18.9~~$24.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016 before gains on sale of investment securities of $506,000 in the third quarter of 2017 and $981,000 in the third quarter of 2016.~~2021. The ~~$9.6~~$1.0 million, or ~~50.6%~~4.3%, increase between those respective periods ~~reflected~~was primarily the result of an ~~$815,000 decrease~~increase in ~~the change in value of investment in unconsolidated entity. Gain~~net realized and unrealized gains on ~~sale of~~non-SBA CRE bridge loans, at fair value. Net realized and unrealized gains on such loans increased to ~~$11.4~~a gain of $3.4 million from a gain of $2.0 million. The $1.4 million change was primarily the result of fees related to repayments of non-SBA CRE bridge loans. The gain in 2022 also included a gain on hedges related to those loans, partially offset by $1.2 million of fair value losses. The fair value losses reflected the increase in market interest rates on fixed rate loans. Prepaid, debit card and related fees decreased $556,000, or 2.9%, to $18.7 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 from $903,000~~2022 compared to $19.2 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016~~2021. The decrease reflected lower transaction volume resulting from an affinity client relationship transitioning to its own bank, which ~~resulted primarily from~~offset growth in other debit and prepaid card account programs. Related fees in this category include income related to the ~~sale~~use of ~~loans into a securitization~~cash in ~~2017. Prepaid~~ATMs for prepaid payroll cardholders. ACH, card and other payment processing fees increased ~~by $242,000~~$188,000, or ~~2.0%~~10.5%, to ~~$12.5~~$2.0 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 compared to ~~$12.2~~$1.8 million in ~~third~~the first quarter ~~2016. The increase reflected organic growth which more than offset the impact~~ of ~~a client whose ownership changed and clients who decided~~2021, reflecting increased ACH volume. Leasing related income increased $8,000, or 0.8%, to ~~terminate card programs. Service fees on deposit accounts increased $190,000 or 12.6% to $1.7 million~~$973,000 for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$1.5 million~~$965,000 for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016, reflecting increases in service charges on safe harbor individual retirement accounts. Leasing income increased $117,000 or 19.9%~~2021. Both periods reflected vehicle sales at relatively higher market prices due to $705,000 for the third quarter of 2017 from $588,000 for the third quarter of 2016, which reflected higher gains on disposition of leased vehicles in 2017. Affinity fees decreased by $816,000, or 74.8% to $275,000 for the third quarter of 2017 from $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2016. The decrease resulted from the exit of one affinity relationship whose ownership had changed.vehicle shortages. Other non-interest income increased ~~$64,000,~~$11,000, or ~~20.5%~~10.1%, to ~~$376,000~~$120,000 for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$312,000~~$109,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021.

Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense was ~~$43.9~~$38.4 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017,~~2022, a decrease of ~~$288,000,~~$3.5 million, or ~~0.7%~~8.4%, compared to ~~$44.2~~$41.9 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of 2016. Decreases in ongoing data processing expenses, consulting fees and BSA lookback expense were partially offset by a proposed $2.5 million civil money penalty which was accrued, a $1.1 million data processing contract exit fee and higher legal expenses. The exit of the data processing contract will result in future savings significantly greater than the exit fee and the BSA lookback expenses concluded in third quarter 2016. The civil money penalty resulted from a programming glitch within one of the Bank’s third party processors. As a result, a higher fee was assessed to consumers for certain point of sale transactions during the period from December 2010 to November 2014.2021. Salaries and employee benefits ~~increased~~decreased to ~~$21.8~~$23.8 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017, an increase~~2022, a decrease of ~~$280,000,~~$1.8 million, or ~~1.3%~~7.1%, from ~~$21.5~~$25.7 million for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016. The increase~~2021. Lower salary expense in 2022 reflected lower incentive compensation expense, related to the gain on sale of loans into securitizations and other revenue and performance based compensation. Those increases offset the impact of staffing levels which had been reduced compared to the prior year in most departments. including equity compensation expense. Depreciation and amortization ~~decreased $161,000~~increased $86,000, or ~~13.0%~~12.1%, to $795,000 in the first quarter of 2022 from $709,000 in the first quarter of 2021, primarily as a result of equipment additions related to a new data center and a new telephone system. Rent and occupancy increased $39,000, or 3.1%, to $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2021. Data processing increased $63,000, or 5.6%, to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $1.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2021. Printing and supplies increased $20,000, or 30.3%, to $86,000 in the first quarter of 2022 from ~~$1.2~~$66,000 in the first quarter of 2021. Audit expense decreased $1,000, or 0.3%, to $362,000 in the first quarter of 2022 from $363,000 in the first quarter of 2021. Legal expense decreased $1.3 million, or 61.3%, to $794,000 in the first quarter of 2022 from $2.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016. The decrease reflected reduced spending on fixed assets and equipment. Rent and occupancy~~2021, reflecting decreased ~~$270,000 or 16.5%, to $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2017 from $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease reflected a reduction in leased space and more efficient use of office space.~~ Data processing decreased by $1.6 million, or 45.1%, to $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2017 from $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease reflected the impact of a renegotiated data processing contract and lower account and transaction volume as a result of the planned exit of an affinity program which had changed ownership. It also reflected the impact of the consolidation of our call centers as an efficiency and cost cutting measure. Printing and supplies decreased $543,000 or 65.8% to $282,000 in the third quarter of 2017 from $825,000 in the third quarter of 2016, which reflected elevated expense in 2016 due to service charge and other communications in that year. Audit expense increased $147,000 or 59.8% to $393,000 in the third quarter of 2017 from $246,000 in the third quarter of 2016 which reflected increased regulatory compliance audit fees. Legal expense increased $1.9 million or 237.1%, to $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2017 from $814,000 in the third quarter of 2016, reflecting costs associated with anthe Cascade matter and two fact-finding inquiries by the SEC ~~subpoena related~~as described in Note 14 to the ~~restatement of the~~consolidated financial statements ~~(see “Financial Statements; Regulatory Actions”) and other regulatory related legal fees.~~. Amortization of intangible assets decreased ~~$17,000,~~by $0, or ~~4.3%~~0.0%, to ~~$377,000 for~~$99,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$394,000 for~~$99,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016 reflecting amortization of an intangible resulting from the 2016 purchase of $60 million of lease receivables.~~2021. FDIC insurance expense decreased ~~$373,000~~$1.4 million, or ~~15.3%~~59.1%, to ~~$2.1 million~~$974,000 for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from $2.4 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016 reflecting a decrease in average deposits and~~2021 primarily due to a reduction in ~~rate.~~the Bank’s assessment rate resulting from the reclassification of certain of our deposits from brokered to non-brokered. The assessment rate is subject to multiple factors which may significantly change the amount assessed. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that reduced rates will continue. Software expense increased ~~$56,000~~$180,000, or ~~1.8%~~4.9%, to ~~$3.1~~$3.9 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$3.0~~$3.7 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016 as a result of additional~~2021. The increase reflected expenditures for information technology ~~infrastructure~~ to improve efficiency and scalability, including ~~BSA software required~~expenses related to ~~satisfy regulatory requirements.~~cybersecurity. Insurance expense increased ~~$2,000~~$319,000, or ~~0.3%~~42.8%, to ~~$633,000~~$1.1 million in the ~~third~~first quarter ~~2017~~of 2022 compared to ~~$631,000~~$745,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2021, reflecting higher rates. Telecom and IT network communications decreased ~~$156,000~~$31,000, or ~~26.8%~~7.7%, to ~~$426,000~~$374,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2022 from ~~$582,000~~$405,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.

~~First nine months 2017 to first nine months 2016~~

~~Net Income:~~ ~~The improvement in net~~various state income in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2017 reflected revenue growth, expense reductions, the conclusion of BSA lookback expense in 2016 and credit related charges in discontinued operations in 2016. ~~Net income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2017~~ ~~was $30.7 million, or $0.55~~ ~~per diluted share, compared to net loss of $29.8 million, or $0.73 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2016. After discontinued operations, net income for the first nine months of 2017~~ ~~was $34.1 million~~ compared to net loss of $67.7 million for the first nine months of 2016. Net interest income increased $15.0 million to $80.0 million for the first nine months of 2017 compared to $65.0 million for the first nine months of 2016 primarily as a result of higher loan balances and yields which reflected the Federal Reserve’s rate increases.taxes. The provision for loan and lease losses increased $340,000 to $2.2 million in the first nine months of 2017 compared to $1.8 million in the first nine months of 2016. Non-interest income increased $24.8 million (excluding security gains and losses), from $45.0 million for the first nine months of 2016, to $69.8 million. The increase reflected a $12.3 million change in the value of investment in unconsolidated entity and $17.5 million of gain on sale of loans into securitizations in 2017. In 2017, a $2.5 million gain on the sale of our health savings accounts was more than offset by a loss of $3.4 million on the sale of our European prepaid operations. A $3.8 million decrease in other income, from $4.7 million in 2016 to $892,000 in 2017, resulted primarily from a second quarter 2016 gain on the sale of Visa Europe to Visa U.S.A., in which members of Visa Europe shared in the sales proceeds. Non-interest expense reflected a $29.1 million decrease in BSA lookback-related consulting expenses and an $8.3 million decrease in other non interest expenses, which reflected a $4.5 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits and a $2.9 million decrease in data processing expense. Diluted income per share ~~was $0.61 for the~~ ~~first nine months of 2017 compared to diluted loss per share of $1.65 for the first nine months of 2016.~~

~~Net Interest Income:~~ Our net interest income for the first nine months of 2017 increased to $80.0 million, an increase of $15.0 million, or 23.1%, from $65.0 million in the first nine months of 2016. Our interest income for the first nine months of 2017 increased to $91.2 million, an increase of $16.8 million, or 22.7%, from $74.3 million for the first nine months of 2016. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from higher balances of loans and higher yields. Our average loans and leases increased $197.8 million to $1.76 billion for the first nine months of 2017 from $1.56 billion for the first nine months of 2016, while related interest income increased $10.1 million on a tax equivalent basis. The increase in average loans reflected organic growth in leasing, SBA and SBLOC lending. Our average investment securities decreased to $1.28 billion for the first nine months of 2017 from $1.34 billion for the first nine months of 2016 while related interest income increased $3.6 million on a tax equivalent basis as a result of higher yields. Yields on both loans and investment securities increased as a result of the impact of the Federal Reserve’s rate increases on variable rate loans and securities. Deposit rates and resulting interest expense adjusted only partially to the Federal Reserve’s rate increases.

Our net interest margin (calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest earning assets) for the first nine months of 2017 increased to 3.02% from 2.57% in the first nine months of 2016, an increase of 45 basis points. The increase in the net interest margin reflected higher yields on loans and investment securities, reflecting the aforementioned Federal Reserve increases. In the first nine months of 2017, the average yield on our loans increased to 4.46% from 4.15% for the first nine months of 2016, an increase of 31 basis points. Yields on taxable investment securities were higher at 2.83% compared to 2.37% an increase of 46 basis points. The net interest margin also benefited from the reinvestment of maturities of investment securities into higher yielding loans. Average interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank increased $42.2 million, or 8.6% to $532.2 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $490.0 million in the first nine months of 2016. That difference reflects a minimal percentage of total deposits, and resulted primarily from daily fluctuations in deposits and loans. The interest cost of total deposits and interest bearing liabilities was relatively stable at 0.38% for the first nine months of 2017 compared to 0.32% in the first nine months of 2016. The cost of deposits increased significantly less than the increase in variable rates on loans and investments primarily due to contractual provisions related to prepaid card deposits. Those contracts result in only partial adjustment to Federal Reserve rate increases.

~~For the first nine months of 2017, average interest earning assets increased to $3.64 billion, an increase of $216.4 million, or 6.3%~~from $3.42 billion in the first nine months of 2016. The increase reflected increased average balances of loans and leases of $197.8 million, or 12.6%, and increased average balances of interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank of $42.2 million, or 8.6%. Average securities decreased $56.2 million or 4.2% as lower yielding securities were replaced with higher yielding loans. Average demand and interest checking deposits increased $108.0 million, or 3.2% due primarily to growth in payments related deposits.

~~Provision for Loan and Lease Losses~~. Our provision for loan and lease losses increased $340,000, to $2.2 million for the first nine months of 2017 compared to $1.8 million for the first nine months of 2016. The increase in the provision is based on our evaluation of

the adequacy of our allowance for loan and leases losses, particularly in light of current economic conditions. At September 30, 2017, our allowance for loan and lease losses amounted to $7.3 million, or 0.53% of total loans compared to $6.3 million, or 0.52% of total loans at December 31, 2016. For more information about our provision and allowance for loan and lease losses and our loss experience, see “Financial Condition-Allowance for loan and lease losses”, “-Net charge-offs,” and “-Non-performing loans, loans 90 days delinquent and still accruing, and troubled debt restructurings,” below and Note 6 to the financial statements.

~~Non-Interest Income~~. Non-interest income was $69.8 million in the first nine months of 2017 compared to $45.0 million in the first nine months of 2016, before gains on securities of $1.6 million in the first nine months of 2017 and $3.1 million in the first nine months of 2016. The $24.8 million, or 55.1%, increase between those respective periods reflected a $12.3 million change in value of investment in unconsolidated entity. It also reflected a $16.7 million increase in gain on sale of loans into securitizations resulting primarily from two securitizations in 2017. In the second quarter of 2017 we had a $2.5 million gain on the sale of a portion of our health savings portfolio which was more than offset by a $3.4 million loss on the sale of our European prepaid card operations. Gain on sale of loans increased to $17.5 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $809,000 in the first nine months of 2016 primarily as a result of gain on sale of loans into two securitizations. Service fees on deposit accounts increased $1.6 million, or 46.8%, to $4.9 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $3.3 million for the first nine months of 2016 reflecting increases in service charges on safe harbor individual retirement accounts. Prepaid card fees decreased $61,000, or 0.2% to $39.3 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $39.3 million for the first nine months of 2016 which reflected decreased volumes from a client as a result of its change in ownership and several programs whose sponsors decided to exit prepaid cards. Those volume decreases were largely offset with organic growth in other programs. Leasing income increased $632,000 or 43.4% to $2.1 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2016, which reflected higher gains on disposition of leased vehicles in 2017. Affinity fees decreased $2.1 million, or 58.8%, to $1.4 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $3.5 million for the first nine months of 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from the planned exit of one affinity relationship which had a change of ownership. Other non-interest income decreased $3.8 million, or 81.0% to $892,000 for the first nine months of 2017 from $4.7 million in the first nine months of 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from a gain on the sale of Visa Europe to Visa U.S.A., in which members of Visa Europe shared in the sales proceeds, which occurred in the second quarter of 2016.

~~Non-Interest Expense~~. Total non-interest expense was $119.0 million for the first nine months of 2017, a decrease of $37.4 million, or 23.9% from $156.4 million for the first nine months of 2016. The decrease reflected a decrease of $29.1 million in Bank Secrecy Act lookback expense which concluded in the third quarter of 2016. Salaries and employee benefits expense also decreased to $57.9 million, a decrease of $4.5 million, or 7.2% from $62.4 million for the first nine months of 2016. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits reflected bankwide staff reductions in the third quarter of 2016 which reduced total staff by approximately 20%. Depreciation and amortization decreased $346,000, or 9.2%, to $3.4 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $3.8 million in the first nine months of 2016 which reflected reduced spending on fixed assets and equipment. Rent and occupancy decreased $570,000 or 11.9% to $4.2 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $4.8 million in the first nine months of 2016. ~~The decrease reflected a~~ reduction in ~~leased space and more efficient use of office space.~~ ~~Data processing expense decreased $2.9 million, or 26.5%, to $8.0 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $10.9 million in the first nine months of 2016.

Printing and supplies decreased $1.1 million or 49.0% to $1.1 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $2.2 million in the first nine months of 2016, which reflected elevated expense in 2016 due to service charge and other communications in that year. Audit expense increased $524,000 or 70.2% to $1.3 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $746,000 in the first nine months of 2016 which reflected increased regulatory compliance audit fees. Legal expense increased $2.1 million, or 56.1%, to $5.9 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $3.8 million in the first nine months of 2016 which reflected costs associated with an SEC subpoena related to the restatement of the financial statements (see “Financial Statements; Regulatory Actions”) and other regulatory related legal fees. The year to date increase was net of insurance coverage. Amortization of intangible assets increased $101,000, or 9.8%, to $1.1 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2016. The increasetax benefit resulted ~~primarily~~ from the amortization of the intangible asset resulting from the 2016 purchase of the $60 million of lease receivables. FDIC insurance expense increased $468,000, or 6.6% to $7.6 million for the first nine months of 2017 from $7.1 million in the first nine months of 2016, which reflected the impact of an increase in the FDIC assessment rate. Software expense increased $1.1 million, or 12.8% to $9.3 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $8.3 million in the first nine months of 2016 which reflected additional information technology infrastructure to improve efficiency and scalability, including BSA software required to satisfy regulatory requirements. Insurance expense increased $158,000, or 9.3%, to $1.9 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $1.7 million in the first nine months of 2016. The increase reflected higher cyber and director and officer coverages. Telecom and IT network communications expense decreased $104,000 or 6.7% to $1.4 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $1.5 million in the first nine months of 2016. The decrease reflected cost cutting efforts which included the elimination of corporate sponsored cell phones. Securitization and servicing expense decreased $647,000 or 86.6%, to $100,000 in the first nine months of 2017 from $747,000 in the first nine months of 2016. Expense in 2016 reflected expenditures related to a potential securitization for loans which were instead sold directly to a single buyer. Consulting expense decreased $2.5 million, or 58.6% to $1.7 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $4.2 million in the first nine months of 2016. The decrease reflected reduced regulatory related and investor relations consulting. Other non-interest expense decreased $3.8 million, or 27.0% to $10.3 million in the first nine months of 2017 from $14.1 million in the first nine months of 2016. The $3.8 million decrease reflected decreases of $1.8 million in travel and entertainment expenses, $815,000 in customer identification expense, $512,000 in

postage expense, $299,000 in expense related to third party origination of SBA loans and $190,000 in other leasing expense. The decrease in customer identification expense primarily reflected the exit of one affinity group and reduced health savings volume dueCompany’s stock price as compared to the ~~sale of that business. The decrease in postage expense reflected the impact~~original grant date of the sale of the health savings business and also reflected elevated expense in 2016 due to service charge and other communications mailings in that year. The decrease in travel and entertainment expense reflected the impact of staff reductions and a concerted effort to reduce travel and related expenses.stock compensation.

~~Income Taxes.~~ Income tax benefit for continuing operations was $457,000 for the first nine months of 2017 compared to $15.3 million in the first nine months of 2016. The tax benefit in 2017 reflected the impact of approximately $12 million of deferred tax valuation allowance reversals. That tax benefit was largely offset by the application of statutory federal and state tax rates against $30.2 million of pre tax income. The 35% effective tax benefit rate in 2016 reflected the statutory 34% rate and the impact of state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity defines our ability to generate funds to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals, satisfy borrowing needs and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We invest the funds we do not need for daily operations primarily in overnight federal funds or in our interest-bearing account at the Federal Reserve.

Our primary source of funding has been deposits. ~~We have been exiting deposit relationships~~Average total deposits increased by $198.4 million, or 3.4%, to ~~reduce excess balances at~~$6.11 billion for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021. Federal Reserve ~~which earn relatively low rates of interest. While such exits continued~~average balances decreased to $686.6 million in first quarter 2022 from $747.8 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017, they were offset by growth in prepaid card and other payments deposits. Accordingly, overnight~~2021. First quarter deposit balances ~~at the Federal Reserve Bank averaged $366.7 million for the third quarter~~are temporarily increased as a result of ~~2017, which was higher than the prior year third quarter~~account holders’ tax refunds. Overnight borrowings are also periodically utilized as a funding source to facilitate cash management, but average ~~of $324.2 million. Investment securities available-for-sale also provide a significant~~balances have generally not been significant.

Our primary source of ~~liquidity.~~ liquidity is available-for-sale securities which amounted to $907.3 million at March 31, 2022, compared to $953.7 million at December 31, 2021. Loan repayments, also a source of funds, were exceeded by new loan disbursements during first quarter 2022. As a result, at March 31, 2022 outstanding loans amounted to $4.16 billion, compared to $3.75 billion at the prior year end, an increase of $417.1 million, which was funded by deposits and securities repayments. Commercial loans, at fair value, decreased to $1.18 billion from $1.39 billion between those respective dates, a decrease of $207.5 million, which also provided funding for other loan categories. In 2019 and previous years, these loans were generally originated for sale into securitizations at six month intervals, but in 2020 we decided to retain such loans on the balance sheet. While we suspended originating such loans after the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2017.~~ 2020, we resumed originations, which consist primarily of non-SBA CRE bridge loans, in the third quarter of 2021. Our liquidity planning has not previously placed undue reliance on securitizations, and while our future planning excludes the impact of securitizations, other liquidity sources, primarily deposits, are determined to be adequate.

While we do not have a traditional branch system, we believe that our core deposits, which include our demand, interest checking, savings and money market accounts, have similar characteristics to those of a bank with a branch system. The majority of our deposit accounts are obtained with the assistance of third-parties and as a result have historically been classified as brokered by the FDIC. Prior FDIC guidance for classification of deposit accounts as brokered was relatively broad, and generally included accounts which were referred to or “placed” with the institution by other companies. If the Bank ceases to be categorized as “well capitalized” under banking regulations, it will be prohibited from accepting, renewing or rolling over brokered deposits without the consent of the FDIC. In such a case, the FDIC’s refusal to grant consent to our accepting, renewing or rolling over brokered deposits could effectively restrict or eliminate the ability of the Bank to operate its business lines as presently conducted. In December 2020, the FDIC issued a new regulation which, in the third quarter of 2021, resulted in the majority of our deposits being reclassified from brokered to non-brokered. Certain accounts currently remain classified as brokered and require applications to the FDIC for reclassification. As of March 31, 2022, approximately $2.04 billion of our total deposit accounts of $6.23 billion were not insured by FDIC insurance, which requires identification of the depositor and is limited to $250,000 per identified depositor. Uninsured accounts may represent a greater liquidity risk than FDIC-insured accounts, should large depositors withdraw funds as a result of negative financial developments either at the Bank or in the economy. Significant amounts of our uninsured deposits are comprised of small balances, such as anonymous gift cards and corporate incentive cards for which there is no identified depositor. We do not believe that ~~the rate~~such uninsured accounts present a significant liquidity risk.

We focus on ~~our deposits is at or below competitors’ rates. However, the focus~~customer service which we believe has resulted in a history of our business model is to identify affinity groups that control significant deposits as part of their business. A key component to the model is that the affinity group deposits are both stable and “sticky,” in the sense that they do not react to fluctuations in the market. Nonetheless, certaincustomer loyalty. Certain components of ~~the~~our deposits do experience seasonality, creating greater excess liquidity at certain ~~times during the year, especially~~times. The largest deposit inflows occur in the first quarter ~~as a result~~ of the year when certain of our accounts are credited with tax refund payments from the U.S. Treasury.

While consumer deposit accounts including prepaid and debit card ~~balances.~~

Historically, we have also used sources outside of our deposit products to fund our loan growth, including Federal Home Loan Bank advances, repurchase agreements, and institutional (brokered) certificates of deposit. In the first nine months of 2017,accountscomprise the vast majority of our funding was derived from prepaid cards and transaction accounts. While the FDIC now classifies prepaid and most of our other deposits obtained with the cooperation of third parties as brokered, these deposits have demonstrated stability and low cost for an extended historical period. Weneeds, we maintain secured borrowing lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank ~~of Pittsburgh, or FHLB,~~(“FHLB”) and the Federal ~~Reserve Bank.~~Reserve. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, we had ~~approximately $573.7 million available on a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank and $179.8 million available on~~ a line of credit with the Federal Reserve ~~Bank. These lines~~which exceeded one billion dollars, which may be collateralized by ~~specified~~various types of loans, orbut which we generally have not used. To mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve has encouraged banks to utilize their lines to maximize the amount of funding available for credit markets. Accordingly, the Bank has borrowed on its line on an overnight basis and may do so in the future. The amount of loans pledged varies and the collateral may be unpledged at any time to the extent the collateral exceeds advances. We have pledged in excess of $1.3 billion of multi-family loans to the FHLB. As a result, we have approximately $1.1 billion of availability on our line of credit which we can access at any time. Additionally, in excess of $400 million of our available-for-sale securities are U.S. government agency securities which are highly liquid and wemay be pledged as additional collateral. Our collateralized line of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) is $1.3 billion as of March 31, 2022. No amounts are outstanding on either line at March 31, 2022. We expect to continue to maintain ~~these facilities.~~our facilities with the FHLB and Federal Reserve. We actively monitor our positions and contingent funding sources ~~on a daily basis. As of September 30, 2017, we did not have any borrowings outstanding on our lines of credit.~~daily.

As a holding company conducting substantially all of our business through our subsidiaries, our near term need for liquidity consists principally of cash ~~needed to make~~for required interest payments on our trust preferred ~~securities.~~securities and senior debt. Our sources of liquidity are primarily comprised of dividends from the Bank to the holding company, and the issuance of debt. In the third quarter of 2020, holding company cash was increased by approximately $98.2 million as a result of the net proceeds of a senior debt offering. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, we had cash reserves of approximately ~~$13.0~~$50.2 million at the holding company. A reduction from the prior quarter end reflected the impact of $15.0 million of common stock repurchases. The biannual interest payments on the $100.0 million of senior debt are approximately $2.4 million based on a fixed rate of 4.75%. Current quarterly interest payments on the $13.4 million of ~~trust preferred securities~~subordinated debentures are approximately $150,000 based on a floating rate of 3.25% over ~~LIBOR. We expect that when~~London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The senior debt matures in August 2025 and the conditions under which the amendment to the 2014 Consent Order was issued will have been remediated, the FDIC will permit the Bank to resume paying dividends to us to fund holding company operations.

~~Funding was directed primarily at cash outflows required for net loan growth~~In the first quarter of $152.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and $120.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net redemptions of investment securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $87.2 million compared to net2022, purchases of ~~$251.1~~$7.4 million ~~for the prior year.~~of securities were exceeded by $31.6 million of redemptions. We had outstanding commitments to fund loans, including unused lines of credit, of ~~$1.31~~$2.12 billion and ~~$1.09~~$2.15 billion as of ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2016,~~

The majority of our commitments are variable rate and originate with security backed lines of credit. ~~Such~~The recorded amount of such commitments ~~are normally~~has, for many accounts, been based on the full amount of collateral in a ~~customers~~customer’s investment account. ~~However, such commitments have historically been drawn at only a fraction of the total commitment.~~ The funding requirements for such commitments occur on a measured basis over time and would be funded by normal deposit growth. Additionally, these loans are “demand” loans and as such, represent a contingency source of funding.

We must comply with capital adequacy guidelines issued by the FDIC. A bank must, in general, have a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.00%, a ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10.0% and a ratio of common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets of 6.5% to be considered “well capitalized.” The Tier I leverage ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets for the ~~period.~~quarter. “Tier I capital” includes common shareholders’ equity, certain qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less intangibles. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2022, we were “well capitalized” under banking regulations.

The reduction in the leverage ratio, which is based on average quarterly assets, from the prior quarter, reflected deposit inflows in the first quarter of 2022, which resulted primarily from tax refunds deposited into customer accounts, a significant amount of which is temporary until those funds are spent.

The following table sets forth our regulatory capital amounts and ratios for the periods indicated:

Asset and Liability Management

The management of rate sensitive assets and liabilities is essential to controlling interest rate risk and optimizing interest margins. An interest rate sensitive asset or liability is one that, within a defined time period, either matures or experiences an interest rate change in line with general market rates. Interest rate sensitivity measures the relative volatility of an institution’s interest margin resulting from changes in market interest rates. While it is difficult to predict the impact of inflation and responsive Federal Reserve rate changes on our net interest income, the Federal Reserve has historically utilized interest rate increases in the overnight federal funds rate as one tool in fighting inflation. Our largest funding source, prepaid and debit card accounts, contractually adjust to only a portion of increases or decreases in rates which are largely determined by such Federal Reserve actions. That pricing has generally supported the maintenance of a balance sheet for which net interest income tends to increase with increases in rates. While deposits reprice to only a portion of rate increases, interest earning assets tend to adjust more fully to rate increases at contractual pricing intervals which may be monthly or up to several years. Most of our loans and securities reprice monthly or quarterly, although some reprice over longer periods. Additionally, the impact of loan interest rate floors which must be exceeded before rates on certain loans increase, may result in decreases in net interest income with lesser increases in rates. Primarily as a result of the impact of such interest rate floors, cumulative Federal Reserve interest rate increases approaching 200 basis points might be required to increase net interest income.

We monitor, manage and control interest rate risk through a variety of techniques, including the use of traditional interest rate sensitivity analysis (also known as “gap analysis”) and an interest rate risk management model. With the interest rate risk management model, we project future net interest income and then estimate the effect of various changes in interest ~~rates and balance sheet growth~~ rates on that projected net interest income. We also use the interest rate risk management model to calculate the change in net portfolio value over a range of interest rate change scenarios. Traditional gap analysis involves arranging our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities by repricing periods and then computing the difference (or “interest rate sensitivity gap”) between the assets and liabilities that we estimate will reprice during each time period and cumulatively through the end of each time period.

Both interest rate sensitivity modeling and gap analysis are done at a specific point in time and involve a variety of significant estimates and assumptions. Interest rate sensitivity modeling requires, among other things, estimates of how much and when yields and costs on individual categories of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities will respond to general changes in market rates, future cash flows and discount rates. Gap analysis requires estimates as to when individual categories of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities will reprice, and assumes that assets and liabilities assigned to the same repricing period will reprice at the same time and in the same amount. Gap analysis does not account for the fact that repricing of assets and liabilities is discretionary and subject to competitive and other

pressures. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of falling interest rates, a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income while a negative gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely.

The following table sets forth the estimated maturity or repricing structure of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2022. Except as stated below, the amounts of assets or liabilities shown which reprice or mature during a particular period were determined in accordance with the contractual terms of each asset or liability. The majority of demand and interest bearing demand deposits and savings deposits are assumed to be “core” deposits, or deposits that will generally remain with us regardless of market interest rates. We estimate the repricing characteristics of these deposits based on historical performance, past experience, ~~at other institutions~~judgmental predictions and other deposit behavior assumptions. However, we may choose not to reprice liabilities proportionally to changes in market interest rates for competitive or other reasons. Additionally, although non-interest bearing demand accounts are not paid interest, we estimate certain of the balances will reprice as a result of the contractual fees that are paid to the affinity groups which are based upon a rate index, and therefore are included in interest expense. We have adjusted the demand and interest checking balances in the table downward, to better reflect the impact of their partial adjustment to changes in rates. Loans and security balances, which adjust more fully to market rate changes, are based upon actual balances. The rates on the vast majority of commercial loans, at fair value, totaling approximately $1.18 billion at March 31, 2022, were at their floors. Additionally, the rates on the vast majority of IBLOC loans totaling approximately $907.1 million at March 31, 2022, were at their floors. The table does not assume any prepayment of fixed-rate loans and mortgage-backed securities ~~which~~ are scheduled based on their anticipated cash flow, including prepayments based on historical data and current market trends. The table does not necessarily indicate the impact of general interest rate movements on our net interest income because the repricing and related behavior of certain categories of assets and liabilities is beyond our control as, for example, prepayments of loans and withdrawal

of deposits. As a result, certain assets and liabilities indicated as repricing within a stated period may in fact reprice at different times and at different rate levels.

The methods used to analyze interest rate sensitivity in this table have a number of limitations. Certain assets and liabilities may react differently to changes in interest rates even though they reprice or mature in the same or similar time periods. The interest rates on certain assets and liabilities may change at different times than ~~changes in~~ market interest rates, with some changing in advance of changes in market rates and some lagging behind changes in market rates. Additionally, the actual prepayments and withdrawals we experience when interest rates change may deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the data shown in the table. Accordingly, actual results can and often do differ from projections. While the gap table above shows a positive gap, cumulative Federal Reserve interest rate increases approaching 200 basis points might be required to increase net interest income, primarily as a result of interest rate floors.

A total of $11.0 million of other debt securities - single issuers is comprised of the following: amortized cost of two single-issuer trust preferred securities of $11.0 million, of which one security for $1.9 million was issued by a bank and one security for $9.1 million was issued by an insurance company.

~~A total of $75.4 million of other debt securities – pooled is comprised of three securities consisting of diversified portfolios of corporate securities.~~

Investments in Federal Home Loan and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank stock are recorded at cost and amounted to ~~$991,000~~$1.7 million at ~~September 30, 2017, compared to $1.6~~March 31, 2022 and $1.7 million at December 31, ~~2016. The decrease resulted from a decrease in the amount of~~2021.

~~Investment securities with a carrying value of $606.8 million at September 30, 2017 and $607.2 million at December 31, 2016, were pledged as collateral for~~borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Both the FHLB and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank ~~advances~~require its correspondent banking institutions to hold stock as a condition of membership.

At March 31, 2022 and ~~letters~~December 31, 2021 no investment securities were encumbered as there were no borrowings as of those dates.

Of the six securities we purchased from our securitizations, all have been repaid except those from CRE-2 and CRE-6. Payments on CRE-6 are on schedule. As of March 31, 2022, the principal balance of the security we owned issued by CRE-2 was $12.6 million. Repayment is expected from the workout or disposition of commercial real estate collateral, after repayment of more senior tranches. Our $12.6 million security has 47% excess credit support; thus, losses of 47% of remaining security balances would have to be incurred, prior to any loss on our security. Additionally, the commercial real estate collateral supporting three of the remaining four loans was re-appraised in 2020 and 2021. The updated appraised value is approximately $70.3 million, which is net of $3.5 million due to the servicer. The remaining principal to be repaid on all securities is approximately $66.2 million and, as ~~required or permitted~~noted, our security is scheduled to be repaid prior to 47% of the outstanding securities. However, any future reappraisals could result in further decreases in collateral valuation. While available information indicates that the value of existing collateral will be adequate to repay our security, there can be no assurance that such valuations will be realized upon loan resolutions, and that deficiencies will not exceed the 47% credit support.

The following table shows the contractual maturity distribution and the weighted average yield of our investment portfolio security as of March 31, 2022 (in thousands). The weighted average yield was calculated by ~~law.~~dividing the amount of individual securities to total securities in each category, multiplying by the yield of the individual security and adding the results of those individual computations.

Non-SBA CRE loans and SBA loans are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis based upon pricing for similar loans where market indications of the sales price of such loans are not available, on a pooled basis. Commercial loans, at fair value of commercial mortgage loans and the SBA loans originated for sale is based on purchase commitments, quoted prices for the same or similar loans or fair market valuations based on other market information. Commercial loans held for sale decreased to ~~$380.3 million~~$1.18 billion at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 from ~~$663.1 million~~$1.39 billion at December 31, 2016.

fair value. In the third quarter ~~2017.~~of 2021 we resumed originating non-SBA CRE loans, after suspending such originations in the first quarter of 2020. These originations reflect lending criteria similar to the existing loan portfolio and are primarily comprised of multi-family (apartment buildings) collateral. The new originations, which are intended to be held for investment, are accounted for at amortized cost. Interest rates shown in that table represent rate floors, set at origination. Rates on new loans will vary with market rates for such loans.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, IBLOC loans amounted to $907.1 million and $788.3 million.

** In 2020, the Company began originating loans to investment advisors for purposes of debt refinance, acquisition of another firm or internal succession. Maximum loan amounts are subject to loan-to-value ratios of 70%, based on third-party business appraisals, but may be increased depending upon the debt service coverage ratio. Personal guarantees and blanket business liens are obtained as appropriate.

*** Includes demand deposit overdrafts reclassified as loan balances totaling $310,000 and $322,000 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Estimated overdraft charge-offs and recoveries are reflected in the allowance for credit losses and have been immaterial.

**** The small business loans held at fair value are comprised of the government guaranteed portion of SBA 7a loans at the dates indicated. A reduction in SBL non-real estate from $147.7 million to $122.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 resulted from U.S. government repayments of $21.1 million of PPP loans authorized by The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021. PPP loans totaled $23.7 million at March 31, 2022 and $44.8 million at December 31, 2021, respectively.

The following table ~~shows~~summarizes our small business loan portfolio, including loans held at fair value, by loan category as of March 31, 2022 (in thousands):

U.S. government guaranteed portion of SBA loans (a)	$	368,932
Paycheck Protection Program loans (PPP) (a)		23,713
Commercial mortgage SBA (b)		191,635
Construction SBA (c)		18,614
Non-guaranteed portion of U.S. government guaranteed loans (d)		100,478
Non-SBA small business loans (e)		16,700
Total principal	$	720,072
Unamortized fees and costs		8,798
Total small business loans	$	728,870

(a)This is the portion of SBA 7a loans (7a) and PPP loans which have been guaranteed by the U.S. government, and therefore are assumed to have no credit risk.

(b)Substantially all these loans are made under the SBA 504 Fixed Asset Financing program (504) which dictates origination date loan-to-value percentages (“LTV”), generally 50-60%, to which the Bank adheres.

(c)Of the $18.6 million in Construction SBA loans, $15.8 million are 504 first mortgages with an origination date LTV of 50-60% and $2.8 million are SBA interim loans with an approved SBA post-construction full takeout/payoff.

(d)The $100.5 million represents the unguaranteed portion of 7a loans which are 70% or more guaranteed by the U.S. government. 7a loans are not made on the basis of real estate LTV; however, they are subject to SBA's "All Available Collateral" rule which mandates that to the extent a borrower or its 20% or greater principals have available collateral (including personal residences), the collateral must be pledged to fully collateralize the loan, after applying SBA-determined liquidation rates. In addition, all 7a and 504 loans require the personal guaranty of all 20% or greater owners.

(e)The $16.7 million of non-SBA loans is comprised of approximately 20 conventional coffee/doughnut/carryout franchisee note purchases. The majority of purchased notes were made to multi-unit operators, are considered seasoned and have performed as agreed.

Type	Principal		% of total

For SBLOC, we generally lend up to 50% of the ~~dates indicated (in~~value of equities and 80% for investment grade securities. While equities have fallen in excess of 30% in recent years, the reduction in collateral value of brokerage accounts collateralizing SBLOCs generally has been less, for two reasons. First, many collateral accounts are “balanced” and accordingly, have a component of debt securities, which have either not decreased in value as much as equities, or in some cases may have increased in value. Secondly, many of these accounts have the benefit of professional investment advisors who provided some protection against market downturns, through diversification and other means. Additionally, borrowers often utilize only a portion of collateral value, which lowers the percentage of principal to the market value of collateral.

The following table summarizes our top 10 SBLOC loans as of March 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands):


	Principal amount		% Principal to collateral

IBLOC loans are backed by the cash value of life insurance policies which have been assigned to us. We lend up to 100% of such cash value. Our underwriting standards require approval of the insurance companies which carry the policies backing these loans. Currently, eight insurance companies have been approved and, as of January 26, 2022, all were rated A (excellent or better) by AM BEST.

Allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses. We review the adequacy of our allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses on at least a quarterly basis to determine ~~that the~~a provision for ~~loan~~credit losses ~~is made in an amount necessary~~ to maintain our allowance at a level ~~that~~we believe is appropriate ~~based on management’s estimate of inherent losses. Our estimates of loan and lease~~to recognize current expected credit losses ~~are intended to, and, in management’s opinion, do, meet the criteria for accrual of loss contingencies in accordance with ASC 450, “Contingencies”, and ASC 310, “Receivables”~~. The process of evaluating this adequacy has two basic elements: first, the identification of problem loans or leases based on current financial information and the fair value of the underlying collateral; and second, a methodology for estimating general loss reserves. For loans or leases classified as “special mention,” “substandard” or “doubtful,” we reserve all losses inherent in the portfolio at the time we classify the loan or lease. This “specific” portion of the allowance is the total of potential, although unconfirmed, losses for individually classified loans. In this process, we establish specific reserves based on an analysis of the most probable sources of repayment and liquidation of collateral. While each impaired loan is individually evaluated, not every loan requires a reserve when the collateral value and estimated cash flows exceed the current balance.

The second phase of our analysis represents an allocation of the allowance. This methodology analyzes pools of loans that have similar characteristics and applies historical loss experience and other factors for each pool including management’s experience with similar loan and lease portfolios at other institutions, the historic loss experience of our peers and a review of statistical information from various industry reports to determine the allocable portion of the allowance. This estimate is intended to represent the potential unconfirmed and inherent losses within the portfolio. Individual loan pools are created for the following major loan categories: SBLOCs, SBA loans, direct lease financing and other specialty lending and consumer loans. We augment historical experience for each loan pool by accounting for such items as current economic conditions, current loan portfolio performance, loan policy or management changes, loan concentrations, increases in our lending limit, average loan size and other factors as appropriate. Our Chief Credit Officer oversees the loan review department, ~~processes and~~which measures the adequacy of the allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses independently of loan production ~~officers.~~ officers. For detailed information on the allowance for credit loss methodology, please see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

At March 31, 2022, the allowance for credit losses amounted to $19.1 million which represented a $1.2 million increase compared to the $17.8 million at December 31, 2021. The increase reflected the impact of loan growth on the CECL model and higher allowances on specific loans at March 31, 2022. Troubled debt restructured loans are individually considered by comparing collateral values with principal outstanding and establishing specific reserves within the allowance. At March 31, 2022, there were 14 troubled debt restructured loans with a balance of $5.3 million which had specific reserves of $655,000. These reserves related primarily to the non-guaranteed portion of SBA loans for start-up businesses.

A description of loan review coverage targets is set forth below.

Although we consider our allowance for ~~loan and lease~~credit losses to be adequate based on information currently available, future additions to the allowance may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions, our ongoing loss experience and that of our peers, changes in

management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses, deterioration of specific credits and management’s intent with regard to the disposition of loans and leases.

Loans are considered to be non-performing if they are on a non-accrual basis or they are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. A loan which is past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest remains on accrual status only when it is both adequately secured as to principal and interest, and is in the process of collection. Troubled debt restructurings are loans with terms that have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal, because of a weakening in the financial positions of the borrowers. We had $18.9 million of other real estate owned (“OREO”) at March 31, 2022 and $18.9 million of OREO at December 31, 2021.

The tables above do not include loans which are reported at fair value. A $30.0 million credit, collateralized by a commercial retail property with multiple tenants, is included in commercial loans, at fair value. The underlying collateral consists of a multi-tenant shopping center and the loan value had been previously written down as a result of a decreased occupancy rate. By December 31, 2020 the center had been substantially all leased and previous write-downs had been reversed. On March 13, 2019, we renewed this loan for four years and reduced the interest rate to the following: LIBOR plus 2% in year one, increasing 0.5% each year until the fourth year when the rate will be LIBOR plus 3.5% which will also be the rate for a one year extension, if exercised. The loan is performing in accordance with those restructured terms.

We had no commitments to extend additional credit to loans classified as troubled debt restructurings as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

~~Investment in Unconsolidated Entity~~. On December 30, 2014, the Bank entered into an agreement for, and closed on, the sale of a portion of its commercial loan portfolio. The purchaser of the loan portfolio was a newly formed entity, Walnut Street 2014-1 Issuer, LLC (“Walnut Street”). The price paid to the Bank for the loan portfolio, which had a face value of approximately $267.6 million, was approximately $209.6 million, of which approximately $193.6 million was in the form of two notes issued by Walnut Street to the Bank; a senior note in the principal amount of approximately $178.2 million bearing interest at 1.5% per year and maturing in December 2024 and a subordinate note in the principal amount of approximately $15.4 million, bearing interest at 10.0% per year and maturing in December 2024. The balance of these notes comprise the $107.7 million investment in unconsolidated entity at September 30, 2017.

~~The independent investor in Walnut Street, the securitization into which the Bank sold certain loans when it~~Assets held-for-sale from discontinued its Philadelphia commercial loan operations, has taken actions which may result in litigation. Specifically, counsel for the independent investor has requested that the Note Administrator hold monthly distribution payments in escrow until the independent investor’s alternative interpretation of the order of payments, as compared to the interpretation of the Bank and the Note Administrator, is resolved. Based on the independent investor’s request, the Note Administrator withheld the September 2017 payment to the independent investor and the Bank and indicated that it would continue to do so until this issue was resolved. Management of the Company, based on advice of its counsel, believes it is unlikely that the Bank and Note Administrator’s interpretation will be overturned. However, if such interpretation is overturned, based upon the current model used to value Walnut Street, an estimated $8 million loss may be recognized, based on currently estimated cash flows which would be redirectedoperations.

Short-term borrowings. Short-term borrowings consist of amounts borrowed on our line of credit with the FRB or FHLB. There were no borrowings on either line at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. We generally utilize overnight borrowings to manage our daily reserve requirements at the Federal Reserve. Period-end and year-to-date information for the dates shown is as follows.

Senior debt. On August 13, 2020, we issued $100.0 million of senior debt with a maturity date of August 15, 2025, and a 4.75% interest rate, with interest paid semi-annually on March 15 and September 15. The Senior Notes are the Company’s direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equal in priority with all our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all our existing and future subordinated indebtedness. In lieu of repayment of debt from Bank dividends, industry practice includes the issuance of new debt to repay maturing debt.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

Our contractual obligations at March 31, 2022, with the exception of minimum annual rentals on noncancelable operating leases, did not significantly change from our contractual obligations at December 31, 2021, which are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. On January 28, 2022, the Company signed a lease for approximately 52,000 square feet to relocate its Sioux Falls office to a new Sioux Falls location, for a minimum period of 10 years, which can be extended. Estimated occupancy is mid-2023 when rent payments, which begin at $24 per square foot, will increase throughout that 10 year period and amount to $28.68 in year 10.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Except as discussed in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” there has been no material change in our assessment of our sensitivity to market risk since our presentation in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016.~~2021.

Information with respect to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk is included under the section entitled “Asset and Liability Management” in Part 1 Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Members of our operational management and internal audit meet regularly to provide an established structure to report any weaknesses or other issues with controls, or any matter that has not been reported previously, to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and, in turn to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial ~~reporting~~. reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For a discussion of ~~certain regulatory proceedings involving the FDIC and FRB,~~Legal Proceedings, see Part I, ~~Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of~~ Financial ~~Condition and Results of Operations-Financial Statement Restatement; Regulatory Actions”.~~

~~The Company received a subpoena from the SEC, dated March 22, 2016, relating~~Information, “Notes to an investigation by the SEC of the Company's restatement of its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 and the interim periods ended March 31, 2014, September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014,Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 14--Legal.” which restatement was filed with the SEC on September 28, 2015, and the facts and circumstances underlying the restatement. The Company is cooperating fully with the SEC's investigation. The costs to respond to the subpoena and cooperate with the SEC's investigation have been material, and we expect such costs to continue to be material at least through the completion of the SEC’s investigation.

On September 30, 2016, the Company received written notice from the Internal Revenue Service that it will be conducting an audit of the Company's tax returns for the tax years 2012, 2013 and 2014. The audit is in process.

The Company received a letter, dated August 1, 2016, demanding inspection of its books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DCGL, from legal counsel representing a shareholder (the "Demand Letter"). The Company, through outside legal counsel, responded to the Demand Letter by permitting the shareholder to inspect certain of the Company’s books and records and by objecting to other requests. On January 30, 2017, the shareholder filed a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware seeking an order from the court, pursuant to Section 220 of the DGCL, compelling the Company to permit the shareholder to inspect additional books and records of the Company. The Company believes that its original response to the Demand Letter was appropriate in all respects and continues to defend against the complaint. On July 27, 2017, the Court of Chancery ruled in favor of the Company and granted an Order of Final Judgment Denying Plaintiff’s Demand To Inspect The Books And Records of Defendant. The court’s Order was subject to an appeal right which has now expired; no appeal was filed. Both the Demand Letter and the complaint threaten the commencement of a shareholder’s derivative suit against certain officers and directors of the Company seeking damages and other remedies on behalf of the Company. We have been advised by our counsel in the matter that reasonably possible losses cannot be estimated, but we and our counsel continue to believe the claim is without merit.

On October 17, 2017, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) informed The Bancorp Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), that it intends to pursue an Order For Restitution (“Restitution Order”) and Order to Pay Civil Money Penalty (“CMP Order”) in an amount up to $2,576,000. The FDIC’s action principally emanates from one of the Bank’s third-party payment processors (“Third Party Processor”) suffering an internal system programming glitch. This inadvertently resulted in consumers that engaged in signature-based point of sale transactions during the period from December 2010 to November 2014 being charged a greater fee than what was disclosed by the Bank. Impacted consumers are being reimbursed by the Third Party Processor at its own expense. The Restitution Order would require the Bank to make such reimbursements if not otherwise made by the Third Party Processor, however, the Bank is indemnified by the Third Party Processor for such reimbursements. Although the Bank is still evaluating its position with regard to the Restitution Order and the CMP Order, the Company accrued $2,500,000 of related expense in its financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 in connection with the CMP Order. Any amounts owed from the CMP Order would not be subject to any indemnification or recovery from any third party.

In addition, we are a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of our business. Management believes that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Information on Stock Repurchases

In October 2021, the Board approved a revised common stock repurchase program for the 2022 fiscal year (the “2022 Common Stock Repurchase Plan”).Under the 2022 Common Stock Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $15.0 million in each quarter of 2022, for a maximum amount of $60.0 million, depending on the share price, securities laws and stock exchange rules which regulate such repurchases. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company intends to repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The Board also authorized the Company to enter into written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. With respect to further repurchases in subsequent quarters under this program, the Company cannot predict if, or when, it will repurchase any shares of common stock and the timing and amount of any shares repurchased will be determined by management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s purchases of its common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2022:
