Because of the credit impaired nature of the loans, the loans are recorded at a discount reflecting estimated future cash flows and the Bank recognizes interest income on each pool of loans reflecting the estimated yield and passage of time. Such loans are considered to be performing. Purchased-credit-impaired loans that are not in pools accrete interest when the timing and amount of their expected cash flows are reasonably estimable, and are reported as performing loans. |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) | Manufactured housing loans purchased in 2010 are subject to cash reserves held at the Bank that are used to fund past-due payments when the loan becomes 90 days or more delinquent.

The decrease in ACL for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to a decrease in consumer installment loans, partially offset by additional provision for credit losses from the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
Customers adopted ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02") effective January 1, 2023. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminated the recognition and measurement of TDRs and enhanced the disclosures for loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Refer to NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION for additional information on the adoption. A borrower is considered to be experiencing financial difficulty when there is a significant doubt about the borrower's ability to make the required principal and interest payments on the loan or to get an equivalent financing from another creditor at a market rate for a similar loan. When borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty, Customers may make certain loan modifications as part of loss mitigation strategies to maximize expected payment. To be classified as a modification made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty the modification must be in the form of an interest rate reduction, principal forgiveness, or an other-than-insignificant payment delay (payment deferral), term extension, or combinations thereof. Customers will generally try other forms of relief before principal forgiveness but would define any contractual reduction in the amount of principal due without receiving payment or assets as forgiveness. For the purpose of this disclosure, Customers considers any contractual change in interest rate that results in a reduction in interest rate relative to the current stated interest rate as an interest rate reduction. Generally, Customers would consider any delay in payment of greater than 90 days in the last 12 months to be significant. Term extensions extend the original contractual maturity of the loan. For the purpose of this disclosure, modification of contingent payment features or covenants that would have accelerated payment are not considered term extensions.

Certain manufactured housing loans were purchased in August 2010. A portion of the purchase price may be used to reimburse the Bank under the specified terms in the purchase agreement for defaults of the underlying borrower and other specified items. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, funds available for reimbursement, if necessary, were $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Each quarter, these funds are evaluated to determine if they would be sufficient to absorb the probable incurred losses within the manufactured housing portfolio.

Troubled Debt RestructuringsRestructuring At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016,2022, there were $20.8$16.8 million and $16.4 million, respectively, in loans reported as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). TDRs are reported as impaired loans in the calendar year of their restructuring and are evaluated to determine whether they should be placed on non-accrual status. In subsequent years, a TDR may be returned to accrual status if it satisfies a minimum six-month performance requirement, however, it will remain classified as impaired. Generally, the Bank requires sustained performance for nine months before returning a TDR to accrual status. Modification of purchased-credit-impaired loans that are accounted for within loan pools in accordance with the accounting standards for purchased-credit-impaired loans do not result in the removal of these loans from the pool even if the modifications would otherwise be considered a TDR. Accordingly, as each pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows, modifications of loans within such pools are not considered TDRs.
The following table presents loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring by type of concession for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.March 31, 2022. There were no modifications that involved forgiveness of debt. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 | | Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 | | Number of Loans | | Recorded Investment | | Number of Loans | | Recorded Investment | (dollars in thousands) | | | | | | | | Extensions of maturity | 1 |

There was no allowance recorded as a result of TDR modifications during the three months ended September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, there was one allowance recorded resulting from TDR modifications, totaling $1 thousand for one manufactured housing loan. There was one specific allowance totaling $29 thousand for one commercial real estate non-owner occupied loan resulting from TDR modifications during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Allowance for Loan Losses and the FDIC Loss Sharing Receivable and Clawback Liability
Losses incurred on covered loans were eligible for partial reimbursement by the FDIC. Subsequent to the purchase date, the expected cash flows on the covered loans were subject to evaluation. Decreases in the present value of expected cash flows on the covered loans were recognized by increasing the allowance for loan losses with a related charge to the provision for loan losses. At the same time, the FDIC indemnification asset was increased reflecting an estimated future collection from the FDIC, which was recorded as a reduction to the provision for loan losses. If the expected cash flows on the covered loans increased such that a previously recorded impairment could be reversed, the Bank recorded a reduction in the allowance for loan losses (with a related credit to the provision for loan losses) accompanied by a reduction in the FDIC receivable balance (with a related charge to the provision for loan losses). Increases in expected cash flows on covered loans and decreases in expected cash flows from the FDIC loss sharing receivable, when there were no previously recorded impairments, were considered together and recognized over the remaining life of the loans as interest income. Decreases in the valuations of other real estate owned covered by the loss sharing agreements were recorded net of the estimated FDIC receivable as an increase to other real estate owned expense (a component of non-interest expense).
On July 11, 2016, Customers entered into an agreement to terminate all existing rights and obligations pursuant to the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. In connection with the termination agreement, Customers paid the FDIC $1.4 million as final payment under these agreements. The negotiated settlement amount was based on net losses incurred on the covered assets through September 30, 2015, adjusted for cash payments to and receipts from the FDIC as part of the December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2016 certifications. Consequently, loans and other real estate owned previously reported as covered assets pursuant to the loss sharing agreements were no longer presented as covered assets as of June 30, 2016.
The following table presents changes in the allowance for loan losses and the FDIC loss sharing receivable, including the effects of the estimated clawback liability and the termination agreement, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Credit Quality Indicators Multi-family,The ACL represents management's estimate of expected losses in Customers' loans and leases receivable portfolio, excluding commercial mortgage warehouse loans reported at fair value pursuant to a fair value option election and PPP loans receivable. Commercial and industrial including specialty lending, multifamily, owner occupied commercial real estate, non-owner occupied commercial real estate, construction, and residential real estateconstruction loans are rated based on an internally assigned risk rating system which is assigned at the time of loan origination and reviewed on a periodic, or on an “as needed” basis. ManufacturedResidential real estate, manufactured housing and other consumerinstallment loans are evaluated based on the payment activity of the loan.
To facilitate the monitoring of credit quality within the multi-family, commercial and industrial including specialty lending, multifamily, owner occupied commercial real estate, non-owner occupied commercial real estate, and construction loan portfolios, and residential real estate classes, and for purposes of analyzing historical loss rates usedas an input in the determination of the allowance for loan lossesACL lifetime loss rate model for the respectivecommercial and industrial loan portfolio, class, the Bank utilizes the following categories of risk ratings: pass/satisfactory (includes risk rating 1 through 6), special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. The risk rating categories, which are derived from standard regulatory rating definitions, are assigned upon initial approval of credit to borrowers and updated periodically thereafter. Pass/satisfactoryPass ratings, which are
assigned to those borrowers who do not have identified potential or well-defined weaknesses and for whom there is a high likelihood of orderly repayment, are updated periodically based on the size and credit characteristics of the borrower. All other categories are updated on a quarterly basis during the month preceding the end of the calendar quarter. While assigning risk ratings involves judgment, the risk-rating process allows management to identify riskier credits in a timely manner and allocate the appropriate resources to manage those loans.
loans and leases. The 2022 Form 10-K describes Customers Bancorp’s risk rating grades are defined as follows: “1” – Pass/Excellent
Loans rated 1 represent a credit extension of the highest quality. The borrower’s historic (at least five years) cash flows manifest extremely large and stable margins of coverage. Balance sheets are conservative, well capitalized, and liquid. After considering debt service for proposed and existing debt, projected cash flows continue to be strong and provide ample coverage. The borrower typically reflects broad geographic and product diversification and has access to alternative financial markets.
“2” – Pass/Superior
Loans rated 2 are those for which the borrower has a strong financial condition, balance sheet, operations, cash flow, debt capacity and coverage with ratios better than industry norms. The borrowers of these loans exhibit a limited leverage position, are virtually immune to local economies, and are in stable growing industries. The management team is well respected and the company has ready access to public markets.
“3” – Pass/Strong
Loans rated 3 are those loans for which the borrowers have above average financial condition and flexibility; more than satisfactory debt service coverage; balance sheet and operating ratios are consistent with or better than industry peers; operate in industries with little risk; move in diversified markets; and are experienced and competent in their industry. These borrowers’ access to capital markets is limited mostly to private sources, often secured, but the borrower typically has access to a wide range of refinancing alternatives.
“4” – Pass/Good
Loans rated 4 have a sound primary and secondary source of repayment. The borrower may have access to alternative sources of financing, but sources are not as widely available as they are to a higher grade borrower. These loans carry a normal level of risk, with very low loss exposure. The borrower has the ability to perform according to the terms of the credit facility. The margins of cash flow coverage are satisfactory but vulnerable to more rapid deterioration than the higher quality loans.
“5” – Satisfactory
Loans rated 5 are extended to borrowers who are determined to be a reasonable credit risk and demonstrate the ability to repay the debt from normal business operations. Risk factors may include reliability of margins and cash flows, liquidity, dependence on a single product or industry, cyclical trends, depth of management, or limited access to alternative financing sources. The borrower’s historical financial information may indicate erratic performance, but current trends are positive and the quality of financial information is adequate, but is not as detailed and sophisticated as information found on higher grade loans. If adverse circumstances arise, the impact on the borrower may be significant.
“6” – Satisfactory/Bankable with Care
Loans rated 6 are those for which the borrower has higher than normal credit risk; however, cash flow and asset values are generally intact. These borrowers may exhibit declining financial characteristics, with increasing leverage and decreasing liquidity and may have limited resources and access to financial alternatives. Signs of weakness in these borrowers may include delinquent taxes, trade slowness and eroding profit margins.
“7” – Special Mention
Loans rated Special Mention are credit facilities that may have potential developing weaknesses and deserve extra attention from the account manager and other management personnel. In the event potential weaknesses are not corrected or mitigated, deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the debt in the future may occur. This grade is not assigned to loans that
bear certain peculiar risks normally associated with the type of financing involved, unless circumstances have caused the risk to increase to a level higher than would have been acceptable when the credit was originally approved. Loans where significant actual, not potential, weaknesses or problems are clearly evident are graded in the category below.
“8” – Substandard
Loans are classified Substandard when the loans are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and payment capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the company will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected.
“9” – Doubtful
The Bank assigns a doubtful rating to loans that have all the attributes of a substandard rating with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonable specific pending factors that may work to the advantage of and strengthen the credit quality of the loan, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. Pending factors may include a proposed merger or acquisition, liquidation proceeding, capital injection, perfecting liens on additional collateral or refinancing plans.
“10” – Loss
The Bank assigns a loss rating to loans considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as an active asset is not warranted. Amounts classified as loss are immediately charged off.grades.
Risk ratings are not established for certain consumer loans, including residential real estate, home equity, manufactured housing, and installment loans, mainly because these portfolios consist of a larger number of homogeneous loans with smaller balances. Instead, these portfolios are evaluated for risk mainly based upon aggregate payment history through the monitoring of delinquency levels and trends and are classified as performing and non-performing.

NOTE 1112 — REGULATORY CAPITAL The Bank and the Bancorp are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Customers' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank and the Bancorp must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, as calculated under the regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. In first quarter 2020, the U.S federal banking regulatory agencies permitted banking organizations to phase-in, for regulatory capital purposes, the day-one impact of the new CECL accounting rule on retained earnings over a period of three years. As part of its response to the impact of COVID-19, on March 31, 2020, the U.S. federal banking regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that provided the option to temporarily delay certain effects of CECL on regulatory capital for two years, followed by a three-year transition period. The interim final rule allows banking organizations to delay for two years 100% of the day-one impact of adopting CECL and 25% of the cumulative change in the reported allowance for credit losses since adopting CECL. Customers has elected to adopt the interim final rule, which is reflected in the regulatory capital data presented below. The cumulative CECL capital transition impact as of December 31, 2021 which amounted to $61.6 million will be phased in at 25% per year beginning on January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2023, our regulatory capital ratios reflected 50%, or $30.8 million, benefit associated with the CECL transition provisions. In April 2020, the U.S. federal banking regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that permits banks to exclude the impact of participating in the SBA PPP program in their regulatory capital ratios. Specifically, PPP loans are zero percent risk weighted and a bank can exclude all PPP loans pledged as collateral to the PPPLF from its average total consolidated assets for purposes of calculating the Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio (i.e. a leverage ratio). Customers applied this regulatory guidance in the calculation of its regulatory capital ratios presented below. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank and the Bancorp to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of common equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and total capital to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined in the regulations). At September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2016,2022, the Bank and the Bancorp satisfied all capital requirements to which they were subject. The Dodd-Frank Act required the Federal Reserve Bank to establish minimum consolidated capital requirements for bank holding companies that are as stringent as those required for insured depositary subsidiaries. In 2013, the federal banking agencies approved rules that implemented the Dodd-Frank requirements and certain other regulatory capital reforms effective January 1, 2015, that (i) introduced a new capital ratio pursuant to the prompt corrective action provisions, the common equity tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets ratio, (ii) increased the adequately capitalized and well capitalized thresholds for the Tier 1
risk based capital ratios to 6% and 8%, respectively, (iii) changed the treatment of certain capital components for determining Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, and (iv) changed the risk weighting of certain assets and off-balance sheet items in determining risk weighted assets.
Generally, to be consideredcomply with the regulatory definition of adequately capitalized, or well capitalized, respectively, or to comply with the Basel III capital requirements, an institution must at least maintain the common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total risk basedrisk-based capital ratios and the Tier 1 leverage ratio in excess of the related minimum ratios as set forth in the following table: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Actual | | For Capital Adequacy Purposes (Minimum Plus Capital Buffer) | | To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions | (amounts in thousands) | Amount | | Ratio | | Amount | | Ratio | | Amount | | Ratio | As of September 30, 2017: | | | | | | | | | | | | Common equity Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 677,976 |

The risk-based capital rules adopted effective January 1, 2015Basel III Capital Rules require that banks and holding companieswe maintain a "capital conservation buffer" of 250 basis points in excess of the "minimum capital ratio." The minimum capital ratio is equal to the prompt corrective action adequately capitalized threshold ratio. The2.500% capital conservation buffer is being phased in over four years beginning on January 1, 2016, with a maximum bufferrespect to each of 0.625% of risk weighted assets for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter.
Effective January 1, 2017, the capital level required to avoid limitation on elective distributions applicable to the Bancorp and the Bank were as follows:
(i) a common equity Tier 1, capital ratio of 5.750%;
(ii) a Tier 1 Risk basedand total capital ratioto risk-weighted assets, which provides for capital levels that exceed the minimum risk-based capital adequacy requirements. A financial institution with a conservation buffer of 7.250%; and
(iii) a Total Risk based capital ratio of 9.250%.
Failure to maintainless than the required capital conservation buffer will result inamount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and onstock repurchases, and certain discretionary bonusesbonus payments to executive officers.
NOTE 1213 — DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Customers uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to disclose the fair value of its financial instruments. ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of an entity’s assets and liabilities considered to be financial instruments. For Customers, as for most financial institutions, the majority of its assets and liabilities are considered to be financial instruments. Many of these financial instruments lack an available trading market as characterized by a willing buyer and a willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. For fair value disclosure purposes, Customers utilized certain fair value measurement criteria under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures("ASC 820"), as explained below.
In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of a financial instrument is the price 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. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for Customers' various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, focusing on an exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions. The fair value guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy and describes the following three levels used to classify fair value measurements. Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require adjustments to inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity). 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 following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of Customers' financial instruments as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2016:2022: Cash and cash equivalents:
The carrying amounts reportedFinancial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair values. These assets are classified as Level 1 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.a Recurring Basis
Investment securities: The fair values of investmentequity securities available for salewith a readily determinable fair value, AFS debt securities and debt securities reported at fair value based on a fair value option election are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized and foreign securities exchanges (Level 1), quoted prices in markets that are not active (Level 2), matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices, or internally and externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3). When quoted market prices are not available, Customers employs an independent pricing service that utilizes matrix pricing to calculate fair value. Such fair value measurements consider observable data such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information, and respective terms and conditions for debt instruments. Management maintains procedures to monitor the pricing service's results and has an established process to challenge their valuations, or methodologies, that appear unusual or unexpected. Customers also utilizes internally and externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument. These models use unobservable inputs that are inherently judgmental and reflect our best estimates of the assumptions a market participant would use to calculate fair value. Certain unobservable inputs in isolation may have either a directionally consistent or opposite impact on the fair value of the instrument for a given change in that input. When multiple inputs are used within the valuation techniques, a change in one input in a certain direction may be offset by an opposite change from another input. These assets are classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Loans held for sale - Consumer residentialResidential mortgage loans:loans (fair value option): The BankCustomers generally estimates the fair values of residential mortgage loans held for sale based on commitments on hand from investors within the secondary market for loans with similar characteristics. These assets are classified as Level 2 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Loans held for salereceivable - Commercial mortgage warehouse loans:loans (fair value option): The fair value of commercial mortgage warehouse loans is the amount of cash initially advanced to fund the mortgage, plus accrued interest and fees, as specified in the respective agreements. The loan is used by mortgage companies as short-term bridge financing between the funding of the mortgage loans and the finalization of the sale of the loans to an investor. Changes in fair value are not generally expected to be recognized because at inception of the transaction the underlying mortgage loans have already been sold to an approved investor. Additionally, the interest rate is variable, and the transaction is short-term, with an average life of 21under 30 days from purchase to sale. These assets are classified as Level 2 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Loans held for sale - Multifamily loans:
The fair values of multi-family loans held for sale are estimated using pricing indications from letters of intent with third party investors, recent sale transactions within the secondary markets for loans with similar characteristics, non-binding indicative bids from brokers, or estimates made by management considering current market ratesDerivatives (assets and terms. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses:
The fair values of loans held for investment are estimated using discounted cash flows and market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. These assets are classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Impaired loans:
Impaired loans are those loans that are accounted for under ASC 310, Receivables, in which the Bank has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral or discounted cash flow analysis. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties that collateralize the loans or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are generally classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Other real estate owned:
The fair value of other real estate owned ("OREO") is determined by using appraisals, which may be discounted based on management’s review and changes in market conditions or sales agreements with third parties. All appraisals must be performed in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Appraisals are certified to the Bank and performed by appraisers on the Bank’s approved list of appraisers. Evaluations are completed by a person independent of management. The content of the appraisal depends on the complexity of the property. Appraisals are completed on a “retail value” and an “as is value”. These assets are classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Deposit liabilities:
The fair values disclosed for interest and non-interest bearing checking, passbook savings and money market deposit accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). These liabilities are classified as Level 1 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. These liabilities are classified as Level 2 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Federal funds purchased:
For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value. These liabilities are classified as Level 1 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
Borrowings:
Borrowings consist of long-term and short-term FHLB advances, 5-year senior unsecured notes, and subordinated debt. For overnight borrowings, the carrying amounts are considered reasonable estimates of fair value and are classified as Level 1 fair value measurements. Fair values of all other FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. The prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party. Fair values of privately placed subordinated and senior unsecured debt are estimated by a third-party financial adviser using discounted cash flow analysis, based on market rates currently offered on such debt with similar credit-risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These liabilities are classified as Level 2 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The $63 million senior unsecured notes issued during third quarter 2013 are traded on The New York Stock Exchange, and their price can be obtained daily. This fair value measurement is classified as Level 1.
Derivatives (Assets and Liabilities)liabilities):
The fair values of interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and credit derivatives are determined using models that incorporate readily observable market data into a market standard methodology. This methodology nets the discounted future cash receipts and the discounted expected cash payments. The discounted variable cash receipts and payments are based on expectations of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, fair value is adjusted for the effect of nonperformance risk by incorporating credit valuation adjustments for the BankCustomers and its counterparties. These assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair values of the residential mortgage loan commitments are derived from the estimated fair values that can be generated when the underlying mortgage loan is sold in the secondary market. The BankCustomers generally uses commitments on hand from third-third party investors to estimate an exit price and adjusts for the probability of the commitment being exercised based on the Bank’sCustomers' internal experience (i.e., pull-through rate). These assets and liabilities are classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Derivative assets and liabilities are presented in "Other assets"other assets and "Accruedaccrued interest payable and other liabilities"liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments:Collateral-dependent loans:
TheCollateral-dependent loans are those loans that are accounted for under ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"), in which the Bank has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral or DCF analysis. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties that collateralize the loans, DCF based upon the expected proceeds, sales agreements or letters of intent with third parties. These assets are generally classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of unused commitmentsinput that is significant to lend and standby letters of credit are considered to be the same as their contractual amounts.fair value measurements.
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of Customers' fair value in its entirety because fair value calculations are only provided for a limited portion of Customers' assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making these estimates, comparisons between Customer’sCustomers' disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.
The estimated fair values of Customers' financial instruments at September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and December 31, 20162022 were as follows.

Customers manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and durations of its assets and liabilities. Specifically, Customers enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the valuevalues of which are determined by interest rates. Customers'Customers’ derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of Customers'Customers’ known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain borrowings.borrowings and deposits. Customers also has interest-rate derivatives resulting from a servicean accommodation provided to certain qualifying customers, and therefore, they are not used to manage Customers'Customers’ interest-rate risk in assets or liabilities. Customers manages a matched book with respect to its derivative instruments used in this customer service in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Cash FlowFair Value Hedges of Interest RateBenchmark Interest-Rate Risk
Customers' objectivesCustomers is exposed to changes in using interest-rate derivatives arethe fair value of certain of its fixed rate AFS debt securities, deposits and FHLB advances due to add stability tochanges in the benchmark interest expense and to manage exposure to interest-rate movements. To accomplish this objective,rate. Customers primarily uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on these instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate such as part of its interest-rate-risk management strategy. Interest-ratethe Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flowfair value hedges of certain of its fixed rate AFS debt securities involve the receiptpayment of variablefixed-rate amounts fromto a counterparty in exchange for Customers makingreceiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges of certain deposits and FHLB advances involve the payment of variable-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for Customers receiving fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of For derivatives designated and qualifyingthat qualify as cash flowfair value hedges, is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period thatgain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. To date, suchitem attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in net interest income.
At March 31, 2023, Customers had three outstanding interest rate derivatives with notional amounts totaling $22.5 million that were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with the forecasted issuances of debt. The ineffective portion of the change indesignated as fair value hedges of the derivatives is to be recognized directly in earnings.certain AFS debt securities. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2023, Customers entered into, and 2016, Customers did not record any hedge ineffectiveness. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on Customers' variable-rate debt. Customers expects to reclassify $1.2 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense during the next 12 months.
Customers is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over a maximum period of 24 months (excluding forecasted transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing financial instruments).

The customer interest rate swaps and interest rate caps are simultaneously offset by interest rate swaps and interest rate caps that Customers executes with a third party in order to minimize interest rateinterest-rate risk exposure resulting from such transactions. BecauseAs the interest rate swaps and interest rate caps associated with this program do not meet the hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and caps and the offsetting third-party market swaps and caps are recognized directly in earnings.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features By entering into derivative contracts, Customers is exposed to credit risk.

Customers also has entered into agreements that contain provisions under which the counterparty could require Customers to settle its obligations if Customers fails to maintain its status as a well/adequately capitalized institution. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, the fair value of derivatives in a net liabilityasset position (which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance-risk) related to these agreements was $7.3$21.0 million. In addition, Customers, which has minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of these counterparties, and at September 30, 2017 had posted $8.3received $23.0 million of cash as collateral.collateral at March 31, 2023.

NOTE 1415 — BUSINESS SEGMENTSLOSS CONTINGENCIES
Customers has historically operated under oneLoss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, segment, "Community Banking."are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are any such matters that will have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements that are not currently accrued for. However, beginning in third quarter 2016, Customers revised its segment financial reporting to reflect the manner in which its chief operating decision makers (our Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors) have begun allocating resources and assessing performance subsequent to Customers' acquisitionlight of the Disbursement business from Higher Oneuncertainties inherent in these matters, it is possible that the ultimate resolution may have a material adverse effect on Customers’ results of operations for a particular period, and the combinationfuture changes in circumstances or additional information could result in accruals or resolution in excess of that business with the BankMobile technology platform late in second quarter 2016.
Management has determined that Customers'established accruals, which could adversely affect Customers’ results of operations, consist of two reportable segments - Community Business Banking and BankMobile. Each segment generates revenues, manages risk, and offers distinct products and services to targeted customers through different delivery channels. The strategy, marketing, and analysis of these segments vary considerably.
The Community Business Banking segment is delivered predominately to commercial customers in Southeastern Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire through a single point of contact business model and provides liquidity to residential mortgage originators nationwide through commercial loans to mortgage companies. Lending and deposit gathering activities are focused primarily on privately held businesses, high net worth families, selected commercial real estate lending, and commercial mortgage companies. Revenues are generated primarily through net interest income (the difference between interest earned on loans, investments, and other interest earning assets and interest paid on deposits and other borrowed funds) and other non-interest income, such as mortgage warehouse transactional fees and bank owned life insurance.
The BankMobile segment provides state of the art high tech digital banking and disbursement services to consumers, students, and the "under banked" nationwide. BankMobile, as a division of Customers Bank, is a full service banking platform that is accessible to customers anywhere and anytime through the customer's smartphone or other web-enabled device. Revenues are currently being generated primarily through interchange and card revenue, deposit and wire transfer fees and university fees. The majority of revenue and expenses for BankMobile are a result of the Disbursement business acquisition.
The following tables present the operating results for Customers' reportable business segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Customers has presented the financial information and disclosures for prior periods to reflect the segment disclosures as if they had been in effect for the periods presented. The segment financial results include directly attributable revenues and expenses. Corporate overhead costs are assigned to the Community Business Banking segment as those expenses are expected to continue following the planned spin-off of BankMobile. Similarly, the preferred stock dividends have been allocated in their entirety to the Community Business Banking segment. The tax benefit assigned to BankMobile was based on an estimated effective tax rate of 37.25% for 2017 and 38% for 2016.
BankMobile, previously presented as discontinued operations in the financial statements due to Customers' stated intent to sell the business, was reclassified as held and used at September 30, 2017. As of September 30, 2017, Customers has decided to spin off BankMobile to Customers’ shareholders through a spin-off/merger transaction which is currently being negotiated. For more information on BankMobile's reclassification, see NOTE 3 - TAX-FREE SPIN-OFF AND MERGER.

This information is intended to facilitate your understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to Customers' financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2023. All quarterly information in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis is unaudited. You should read this section in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Customers' 20162022 Form 10-K. Overview Like most financial institutions, Customers derives the majority of its income from interest it receives on its interest-earning assets, such as loans, leases and investments. Customers' primary source of funds for making these loans, leases and investments are its deposits and borrowings, on which it pays interest. Consequently, one of the key measures of Customers' success is the amount of its net interest income, or the difference between the interest income on its interest-earning assets and the interest expense on its interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. Another key measure is the difference between the interest income generated by interest earning assets and the interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, relative to the amount of average interest earning assets, which is referred to as net interest margin. There is credit risk inherent in loans and leases requiring Customers to maintain an ACL to absorb credit losses on existing loans and leases that may become uncollectible. Customers maintains this allowance by charging a provision for credit losses on loan and leases against its operating earnings. Customers has included a detailed discussion of this process, as well as several tables describing its ACL, in "NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION" and "NOTE 7 – LOANS AND LEASES RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES ON LOANS AND LEASES" to Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Impact of Macroeconomic and Banking Industry Uncertainties, COVID-19 and Geopolitical Conflict The U.S. economy has strengthened since the spread of COVID-19 variants, with higher inflation and housing values beginning in 2021. Also, the ongoing global supply chain issues and the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine contributed to higher inflation in 2022. In response, the Federal Reserve began normalizing monetary policy with its decision in late 2021 to taper its quantitative easing and raising the federal funds rate beginning in March 2022. Inflation remains elevated in 2023, reflecting supply and demand imbalances related to COVID-19 and its variants, higher food and energy prices from the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and broader price pressures. The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates significantly throughout 2022 and in the early part of 2023 in attempts to bring the inflation to its long run target rate of two percent. Future rate hikes may occur during the remainder of 2023, as the Federal Reserve has indicated attaining a stance of monetary policy that is sufficiently restrictive to return inflation to two percent over time. In early March 2023, regional banks, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank were placed in receivership by the state regulators and the FDIC. Citing systemic risk to the U.S. banking system, the FDIC, Federal Reserve and the U.S. Department of Treasury announced that all depositors of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank would be made whole and have access to their funds. The Federal Reserve has also established a new Bank Term Funding Program, which offers loans of up to one year in length to banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other eligible depository institutions pledging U.S. Treasuries, agency debt and mortgage-backed securities and other qualifying assets as collateral. These assets will be valued at par. The BTFP is an additional source of liquidity against high-quality securities, eliminating an institution's need to quickly sell those securities in times of stress. As of March 31, 2023, Customers had no advances outstanding under the Federal Reserve's discount window or the BTFP. Refer to "NOTE 10 – BORROWINGS" to Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements. Significant uncertainties as to future economic conditions continue to exist, including higher inflation and interest rate environment, elevated liquidity risk to the U.S. banking system, particularly to the regional banks, disruptions to global supply chain and labor markets and higher oil and commodity prices exacerbated by the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Customers has taken deliberate actions in response, including maintaining higher levels of liquidity, reserves for credit losses on loans and leases and off-balance sheet credit exposures and strong capital ratios. Customers has shifted the mix of its loan portfolio towards low credit risk commercial loans with floating or adjustable interest rates to position the Bank for higher interest rate hikes. Customers has also shifted the mix of its available for sale debt securities portfolio towards variable rate, shorter duration debt securities. The Bank's debt securities available for sale and held to maturity are available to be pledged as collateral to the FRB and FHLB for additional liquidity, including through the BTFP. The Bank had $7.4 billion in immediate available liquidity from FRB and FHLB and cash on hand of $2.0 billion as of March 31, 2023. The Bank also maintains a diversified deposit base with approximately 78% of our deposits (inclusive of accrued interest) insured by the FDIC, along with $393.9 million of state and municipal deposits collateralized by our lines of credit at FHLB and $54.9 million of deposits from our affiliates as of March 31, 2023. The Bank's FDIC insured, collateralized and affiliates' deposits represented approximately 81% of our deposits (inclusive of accrued interest) as of March 31, 2023. Customers is focused on growing its non-interest bearing and lower-cost interest-bearing deposits. Customers continues to monitor closely the impact of uncertainties affecting the macroeconomic conditions, the U.S. banking system, particularly regional banks, COVID-19 and its variants, the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as any effects that may result from the federal government's responses including future rate hikes and regulatory actions; however, the extent to which inflation, interest rates and other macroeconomic and industry factors, COVID-19 and its variants, the geopolitical conflict and developments in the U.S. banking system will impact Customers' operations and financial results during the remainder of 2023 is highly uncertain. New Accounting Pronouncements For information about the impact that recently adopted or issued accounting guidance will have on us, refer to "NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION" to Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Customers has adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of AmericaU.S. GAAP and that are consistent with general practices within the banking industry in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Customers' significant accounting policies are described in “NOTE 4 -"NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION”PRESENTATION" in Customers' audited consolidated financial statements included in its 20162022 Form 10-K and updated in this report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2023 in "NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION" in Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Certain accounting policies may involve significant judgments and assumptions by Customers that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities.assets. Customers considers these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgmentjudgments and assumptions used are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions management makes, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of Customers' assetsassets. The critical accounting policy that is both important to the portrayal of Customers' financial condition and liabilitiesresults of operations and requires complex, subjective judgments is the ACL. This critical accounting policy and material estimate, along with the related disclosures, are reviewed by Customers' Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Allowance for Credit Losses Customers' ACL at March 31, 2023 represents Customers' current estimate of the lifetime credit losses expected from its loan and lease portfolio and its unfunded lending-related commitments that are not unconditionally cancellable. Management estimates the ACL by projecting a lifetime loss rate conditional on a forecast of economic parameters and other qualitative adjustments, for the loans and leases' expected remaining term. Customers uses external sources in the creation of its forecasts, including current economic conditions and forecasts for macroeconomic variables over its reasonable and supportable forecast period (e.g., GDP growth rate, unemployment rate, BBB spread, commercial real estate and home price index). After the reasonable and supportable forecast period, which ranges from two to five years, the models revert the forecasted macroeconomic variables to their historical long-term trends, without specific predictions for the economy, over the expected life of the pool, while also incorporating prepayment assumptions into its lifetime loss rates. Internal factors that impact the quarterly allowance estimate include the level of outstanding balances, portfolio performance and assigned risk ratings. Significant loan/borrower attributes utilized in the models include property type, initial loan to value, assigned risk ratings, delinquency status, origination date, maturity date, initial FICO scores, and borrower industry and state. The ACL may be affected materially by a variety of qualitative factors that Customers considers to reflect its current judgment of various events and risks that are not measured in our statistical procedures, including uncertainty related to the economic forecasts used in the modelled credit loss estimates, nature and volume of loan and lease portfolio, credit underwriting policy exceptions, peer comparison, industry data, and model and data limitations. The qualitative allowance for economic forecast risk is further informed by multiple alternative scenarios, as deemed applicable, to arrive at a scenario or a composite of scenarios supporting the period-end ACL balance. The evaluation process is inherently imprecise and subjective as it requires significant management judgment based on underlying factors that are susceptible to changes, sometimes materially and rapidly. Customers recognizes that this approach may not be suitable in certain economic environments such that additional analysis may be performed at management's discretion. Due in part to its subjectivity, the qualitative evaluation may be materially impacted during periods of economic uncertainty and late breaking events that could lead to a revision of reserves to reflect management's best estimate of expected credit losses. The ACL is established in accordance with our ACL policy. The ACL Committee, which includes the President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, Chief Lending Officer, and Chief Credit Officer, among others, reviews the adequacy of the ACL each quarter, together with Customers' risk management team. The ACL policy, significant judgments and the related disclosures are reviewed by Customers' Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The net decrease in our estimated ACL as of March 31, 2023 as compared to our December 31, 2022 estimate was primarily attributable to a decrease in consumer installment loans, partially offset by additional provision for credit losses from the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. There was a provision for credit losses on loans and leases of $18.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, resulting in an ACL ending balance of $133.6 million ($130.3 million for loans and leases and $3.3 million for unfunded lending-related commitments) as of March 31, 2023. To determine the ACL as of March 31, 2023, Customers utilized Moody's March 2023 Baseline forecast to generate its modelled expected losses and considered Moody's other alternative economic forecast scenarios to qualitatively adjust the modelled ACL by loan portfolio in order to reflect management's reasonable expectations of current and future economic conditions. The Baseline forecast at March 2023 assumed lower growth rate in macroeconomic forecasts compared to the fourth quarter 2022 forecasts of macroeconomic conditions used by Customers; the Federal Reserve Board delaying the increase in the effective fed funds rate due to the recent financial system turmoil, but ultimately raising it to the terminal range of 5.0% to 5.25%; policymakers' aggressive response ensures that the recent bank failures do not weaken the financial system or the U.S. economy; the CPI rising 4.1% in 2023 and 2.4% in 2024; and the unemployment rate rising at the end of 2023 and into 2024. Customers continues to monitor the impact of the U.S. banking system turmoil, military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, global supply chain and labor market disruptions, inflation, and related policy measures on the U.S. economy and, if pace of the expected recovery is worse than expected, further meaningful provisions for credit losses could be required.
As of December 31, 2022, the ACL ending balance was $133.9 million ($130.9 million for loans and leases and $3.0 million for unfunded lending-related commitments). To determine the ACL as of December 31, 2022, Customers utilized the Moody's December 2022 Baseline forecast to generate its modelled expected losses and considered Moody's other alternative economic forecast scenarios to qualitatively adjust the modelled ACL by loan portfolio in order to reflect management's reasonable expectations of current and future economic conditions. The Baseline forecast at December 31, 2022 assumed lower growth rates in macroeconomic forecasts compared to the macroeconomic forecasts used by Customers in 2021; oil prices remaining volatile, but gradually declining by mid-2023, from recession fears, weakening global economies and the embargo on Russian crude oil from the Russian invasion of Ukraine; COVID-19 becoming less disruptive to global supply chains, tourism and business travel, immigration and labor markets; the Federal Reserve raising the effective fed funds rate to just under 5.0% and cutting the fed funds rate beginning in late 2023 and throughout 2024; the CPI rising 4.1% in 2023 and 2.4% in 2024; and the unemployment rate rising to 4.0% in 2023 and 4.1% in 2024. One of the most significant judgments influencing the ACL is the macroeconomic forecasts from Moody's. Changes in the economic forecasts could significantly affect the estimated credit losses which could potentially lead to materially different allowance levels from one reporting period to the next. Given the dynamic relationship between macroeconomic variables within Customers' modelling framework, it is difficult to estimate the impact of a change in any one individual variable on the ACL. However, to illustrate a hypothetical sensitivity analysis, management calculated a quantitative allowance using a 100% weighting applied to an adverse scenario. This scenario includes assumptions around the recent bank failures raising fears of further collapse in the banking industry, reducing consumer confidence and causing banks to tighten lending standards, the Federal Reserve keeping the fed funds rate elevated, but less than in the Baseline projections because of the weakening economy, military conflict between Russia and Ukraine persisting longer than expected, worsening supply chain conditions, rising unemployment and the U.S. economy falling into recession in the second quarter of 2023. Under this scenario, as an example, the unemployment rate is estimated at 5.6% and 7.6% in 2023 and 2024, respectively. These numbers represent a 2.1% and 3.7% higher unemployment estimate than the Baseline scenario projection of 3.5% and 3.9% for the same time periods, respectively. To demonstrate the sensitivity to key economic parameters, management calculated the difference between a 100% Baseline weighting and a 100% adverse scenario weighting for modelled results. This would result in an incremental quantitative impact to the ACL of approximately $38 million at March 31, 2023. This resulting difference is not intended to represent an expected increase in ACL levels since (i) Customers may use a weighted approach applied to multiple economic scenarios for its ACL process, (ii) the highly uncertain economic environment, (iii) the difficulty in predicting inter-relationships between macroeconomic variables used in various economic scenarios, and (iv) the sensitivity analysis does not account for any qualitative adjustments incorporated by Customers as part of its overall ACL framework. There is no certainty that Customers' ACL will be appropriate over time to cover losses in our portfolio as economic and market conditions may ultimately differ from our reasonable and supportable forecast. Additionally, events adversely affecting specific customers, industries, or Customers' markets, such as geopolitical instability, risks of rising inflation including a near-term recession, worsening of the U.S. banking system turmoil, or the emergence of a more contagious and severe COVID-19 variant, could severely impact our current expectations. If the credit quality of Customers' customer base materially deteriorates or the risk profile of a market, industry, or group of customers changes materially, Customers' net income and capital could be materially adversely affected which, in turn could have a material adverse effect on Customers' financial condition and results of operations. The extent to which the geopolitical instability, risks of rising inflation, worsening of the U.S. banking system turmoil, and COVID-19 and its variants have and will continue to negatively impact Customers' businesses, financial condition, liquidity and results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be forecasted with precision at this time.

Customers reported net income available to common shareholders of $4.1 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted common share for third quarter 2017. The reported results were impacted by several notable charges in third quarter 2017. First, Customers' previously-announced strategic decision to spin-off its BankMobile business directly to Customers’ shareholders, to be followed by a merger of BankMobile into Flagship Community Bank rather than sell the business directly to a third party resulted in including BankMobile segment results as part of the continuing Customers’ business rather than as discontinued operations. The reclassification as part of the continuing business resulted in the capture of depreciation and amortization expense not recognized during the period the related assets were classified as held for sale ($4.2 million pre-tax, or $0.08 per diluted share). In addition, Customers' decision to spin-off and then merge the BankMobile business eliminated Customers’ tax strategy to offset capital losses on disposition of the Religare common stock with capital gains from the sale of BankMobile. Customers’ decision to pursue the spin-off and merger reduced earnings by $7.7 million after tax ($0.24 per diluted share) in the third quarter due to the reversal of $4.6 million of previously recognized deferred tax assets, and inability to recognize deferred tax benefits of $3.1 million for the third quarter 2017 impairment charge of $8.3 million ($0.16 per diluted share), equal to the third quarter 2017 decrease in market value of Customers’ investment in Religare. Asset quality remained exceptional with non-performing loans of $29.8 million, or 0.33% of total loans, and total non-performing assets (non-performing loans and other real estate owned) only 0.30% of total assets at September 30, 2017, reflecting Customers' conservative lending practices and continued focus on credit risk management. Customers' level of non-performing loans at September 30, 2017 remained well below industry average non-performing loans of 1.42% and Customers' peer group non-performing loans of 0.88%. Customers' capital ratios at the holding company and its bank subsidiary continue to exceed the “well-capitalized” threshold established by regulation at the Bank and exceed the applicable Basel III regulatory threshold ratios for the Bancorp and the Bank at September 30, 2017. Customers Bancorp's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 8.36%, and its total risk-based capital ratio was 12.40% at September 30, 2017.
Customers ended the quarter with $10.5 billion in total assets, stable asset quality trends, and stronger capital. Customers expects to strategically reduce assets below $10 billion as of December 31, 2017 to eliminate the risk of not receiving full interchange fees by qualifying for the small issuer exemption under the Durbin Amendment to the Dodd Frank legislation.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2016
Net income available to common shareholders decreased $14.5 million, or 77.8%, to $4.1$50.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 whenMarch 31, 2023, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $18.7$74.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decreased net income available to common shareholders primarily resulted from certain notable third quarter 2017 charges totaling $15.6 million including:
Change in BankMobile disposition strategy ($10.4 million after tax). As further described under the "Third Quarter Events of Note" above, Customers' reclassification of BankMobile as part of the continuing business resulted in the capture of depreciation and amortization expense not recognized during the period the related assets were classified as held for sale ($4.2 million pre-tax and $2.6 million after tax). In addition, Customers' decision to spin-off and then merge the BankMobile business eliminated Customers’ tax strategy to offset capital losses on disposition of the Religare common stock with capital gains from the sale of BankMobile, reducing earnings by $7.7 million after tax in third quarter 2017.
Religare investment impairment charge of $8.3 million ($5.2 million after tax). Customers recorded an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $8.3 million for three months ended September 30, 2017 for the full amount of the decline in fair value of the Religare investment below the cost basis established at June 30, 2017.
Other contributorsMarch 31, 2022. Factors contributing to the decreasechange in net income available to common shareholders includedfor the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 were as follows.
Net interest income Net interest income decreased $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to higher funding costs from a shift in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities in a rising interest rate environment and reduced recognition of net deferred loan origination fees from PPP loans driven by lower loan forgiveness, which accelerated the recognition of net deferred loan origination fees, offset in part by an increase in commercial and industrial loans and leases, mostly due to higher interest rates on variable rate loans in specialty lending. Average interest-earning assets increased by $1.9 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in interest-earning assets was driven by increases in commercial and industrial loans and leases, primarily in specialty lending and multifamily loans, offset in part by decreases in PPP loans due to PPP loan forgiveness and guarantee payments from the SBA and commercial loans to mortgage companies. NIM decreased by 64 basis points to 2.96% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from 3.60% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The shift in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities in a rising interest rate environment drove a 331 basis point increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and contributed to the NIM decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The NIM decrease was partially offset by a shift in the mix of interest-earning assets in a rising interest rate environment mostly in commercial and industrial loans and leases, primarily in specialty lending, which drove a 221 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets. The largest shift in the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities impacting the NIM was $5.5 billion in ending balance ($5.7 billion average balance) of commercial and industrial loans and leases in specialty lending yielding 7.38% and $5.5 billion in ending balance ($4.5 billion average balance) of certificates of deposit costing 4.18% at and for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Customers' total cost of funds, including non-interest bearing deposits was 3.45% and 0.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Provision for credit losses The $3.6 million increase in the provision for loancredit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily reflects the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is presented within accrued interest payable and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and the related provision is presented as part of other non-interest expense on the consolidated statement of income. The ACL on loans and leases held for investment represented 0.99% of total loans and leases receivable, excluding PPP loans (non-GAAP measure, please refer to the non-GAAP reconciliation within Loans and Leases - Credit Risk), at March 31, 2023, compared to 1.44% at March 31, 2022. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $18.7 million, or 49 basis points of average loans and leases on an annualized basis, compared to net charge-offs of $7.2 million, or 21 basis points on an annualized basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, was primarily due to higher charge-offs for consumer installment loans.
The provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 also included a provision for credit losses of $2.3$1.6 million primarily as a result of growthand $0.7 million, respectively, on certain asset-backed securities and corporate notes included in the loan portfolio and provisions on impaired loans, and increasesour investment securities available for sale. Refer to "NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT SECURITIES" to Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information. Non-interest income The $3.1 million decrease in non-interest expensesincome for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from decreases of $4.8$5.7 million primarily drivenin bank-owned life insurance income, $1.5 million in gain on sale of SBA and other loans, $0.9 million in mortgage warehouse transactional fees and $0.9 million in other non-interest income. These decreases were offset in part by increases of $3.4 million in commercial lease income and $1.4 million in loan fees and a decrease of $1.1 million in net loss on sale of investment securities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Non-interest expense The $6.3 million increase in non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from increases of $5.7 million in salaries and employee benefits, $2.9 million in commercial lease depreciation, $2.3 million in loan servicing, $1.4 million in other non-interest expense, $0.7 million in advertising and technology-related expenses, including core process systempromotion and conversion costs and noncapitalizable software development costs.$0.6 million in professional services. These increases were offset in part by increased gains on salea decrease of investment securities of $5.4$7.5 million in technology, communication and an increase in net interest income of $3.4 million.
Net interest income of $68.0 million increased $3.4 million, or 5.3%,bank operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017 whenMarch 31, 2023 compared to net interestthe three months ended March 31, 2022.
Income tax expense Customers' effective tax rate was 21.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 20.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in the effective tax rate primarily resulted from lower death benefits from bank-owned life insurance policies and stock-based compensation benefits, partially offset by an increase in income of $64.6tax credits. Preferred stock dividends Preferred stock dividends were $3.5 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase resulted primarily from an increase inMarch 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There were no changes to the average balanceamount of interest-earning assets of $1.2 billion for third quarter 2017, offset in part by a 21 basis point decline in net interest margin (tax-equivalent) to 2.62% for third quarter 2017 from 2.83% for third quarter 2016. The provision for loan losses of $2.4 million increased $2.3 million forpreferred stock outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2017 whenMarch 31, 2023 and 2022.
On June 15, 2021, the Series E Preferred Stock became floating at three-month LIBOR plus 5.14%, compared to a fixed rate of 6.45%. On December 15, 2021, the provision for loan losses of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The third quarter 2017 provision expense included provisions of $1.4 million for loan portfolio growth and reserves of $0.8 million for impaired loans. Non-interest income of $18.0 million decreased $9.5 million, or 34.4%Series F Preferred Stock became floating at three-month LIBOR plus 4.762%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to non-interest incomea fixed rate of $27.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This decrease was primarily the result of an $8.3 million other-than-temporary impairment loss related6.00%. Pursuant to the Religare investment, decreases in other non-interest incomeAdjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act enacted by Congress on March 15, 2022, Customers expects that the Series E and F Preferred Stock will substitute three-month term SOFR plus a tenor spread adjustment of $2.4 million, due to a $2.2 million recovery of a previously recorded loss in third quarter 2016, decreases in interchange and card revenue and deposit fees of $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, driven by lower business volumes in BankMobile Disbursements. These decreases were offset in part by increased gains on sales of investment securities of $5.4 million.
Non-interest expense of $61.0 million increased $4.8 million, or 8.6%,26.161 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to non-interest expense of $56.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase resulted primarily from increases in salaries and employee benefits of $2.1 million, driven primarily by salary increasesthree-month LIBOR as the average number of full-time equivalent employees remained relatively consistent over the past year, and increasesbenchmark reference rate in technology, communications and bank operations and other expenses of $1.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, driven by technology enhancements and the capture of depreciation and amortization expenses relatedorder to BankMobile due to the reclassification of BankMobile as held and used as of Septembercalculate dividends after June 30, 2017.2023.
Income tax expense of $14.9 million increased $0.3 million, or 2.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to income tax expense of $14.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in income tax expense was driven primarily by the elimination of deferred tax benefits from other-than-temporary impairment losses on investment securities totaling $7.7 million, offset in part by a decrease in pre-tax income of $13.1 million in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016.
Preferred stock dividends of $3.6 million increased $1.1 million, or 41.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to preferred stock dividends of $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to (i) changes attributable to volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate) and (ii) changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

(6)Not Meaningful. Average yield on other interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 44.18% primarily due to $5.2 million of equity investment distributions. Net interest income decreased $14.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, as averageMarch 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to higher funding costs from a shift in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities in a rising interest rate environment and reduced recognition of net deferred loan origination fees from PPP loans driven by lower loan forgiveness, which accelerated the recognition of net deferred loan origination fees, offset in part by an increase in commercial and security balancesindustrial loans and leases, mostly due to higher interest rates on variable rate loans in specialty lending. Average interest-earning assets increased $1.2 billion. Netby $1.9 billion, primarily related to increases in commercial and industrial loans and leases, primarily in specialty lending and multifamily loans, offset in part by decreases in PPP loans due to PPP loan forgiveness and guarantee payments from the SBA and commercial loans to mortgage companies. The commercial loans to mortgage companies trend had been a function of refinance activity, which had slowed since reaching its high level in early 2021, and into 2022 and 2023 with rising interest margin (tax equivalent) narrowedrates. The NIM decreased by 2164 basis points to 2.62% for third quarter 2017 compared to 2.83% for third quarter 2016. The net interest margin (tax equivalent) compression largely resulted from a $1.4 million reduction in prepayment penalties in the multi-family portfolio. Net interest margin (tax equivalent) was also impacted by Customers Bancorp's issuance of $100 million principal amount of 3.95% senior notes on June 30, 2017 and a one-time interest expense adjustment of approximately $0.3 million. Interest expense on total interest-bearing deposits increased $5.4 million in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016. The increase was mainly driven by the average rate on interest-bearing deposits, which increased 34 basis points for third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016, reflecting higher interest rates offered by Customers on its money market deposit accounts and certificates of deposits in order to remain competitive and attract new and retain existing deposit customers. Deposit volumes remained relatively stable, as average interest-bearing deposits increased $30.2 million2.96% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to average interest-bearing depositsMarch 31, 2023 from 3.60% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Interest expense on borrowings increased $5.3 millionMarch 31, 2022 resulting primarily from a shift in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016. This increase was primarily driventhe mix of interest-bearing liabilities in a rising interest rate environment, offset in part by a higher averageshift in the mix of interest-earning assets in a rising interest rate on borrowings, which increased 30environment. The shift in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities in a rising interest rate environment drove a 331 basis points for third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016, primarily as a result of anpoint increase in the borrowing rate for short term advances, including FHLB advancescost of interest-bearing liabilities and federal funds purchased, and an increase incontributed to the outstanding balance of senior note borrowings.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses of $2.4 million increased by $2.3 millionNIM decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023 compared to $0.1 millionthe three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in NIM was also due to reduced recognition of net deferred loan origination fees from PPP loans driven by lower loan forgiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in NIM was offset in part by a shift in the mix of interest-earning assets in a rising interest rate environment, mostly in commercial and industrial loans and leases, primarily in specialty lending, which drove a 221 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets. The largest shift in the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities impacting the NIM was $5.5 billion in ending balance ($5.7 billion average balance) of commercial and industrial loans and leases within specialty lending yielding 7.38% and $5.5 billion in ending balance ($4.5 billion average balance) of certificates of deposit costing 4.18% at and for the samethree months ended March 31, 2023. Customers' total cost of funds, including non-interest bearing deposits was 3.45% and 0.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES The provision for credit losses is a charge to earnings to maintain the ACL at a level consistent with management’s assessment of expected lifetime losses in the loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. Customers recorded a provision for credit losses on loans and leases during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which resulted primarily from the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. Customers recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.4 million in third quarter 2017 included provisions of $1.4$18.0 million for loan portfolio growthloans and reserves of $0.8leases and $0.3 million for impaired loans. In third quarter 2016,lending-related commitments, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Customers recorded a provision for loancredit losses for loans and leases of $15.3 million and a credit to provision for credit losses (a benefit) on lending-related commitments of $0.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $18.7 million, or 49 basis points of average loans and leases on an annualized basis, compared to net charge-offs of $7.2 million, or 21 basis points of average loans and leases on an annualized basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, was the result of minimal loan growth during the quarter, as planned, as well as exceptional asset quality.primarily due to higher charge-offs for consumer installment loans.

ThisMarch 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from the continued growth of Customers' equipment finance business.
Loan fees The $1.4 million increase in loan fees for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from an increase in fees earned on unused lines of credit and other fees from commercial borrowers. Bank-owned life insurance Bank-owned life insurance income represents income earned on life insurance policies owned by Customers including an increase in cash surrender value of the policies and any benefits paid by insurance carriers under the policies. The $5.7 million decrease was primarily duein bank-owned life insurance income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to an $8.3 million other-than-temporary-impairment loss on equity securities,the three months ended March 31, 2022 resulted from a decrease in other non-interest incomedeath benefits paid by insurance carriers under the policies.
Mortgage warehouse transactional fees The $0.9 million due to a $2.2 million recovery of a previously recorded loss in third quarter 2016, decreases in interchange and card revenue and deposit fees of $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, driven by lower business volumes in BankMobile Disbursements, and a decrease in mortgage warehouse transactional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from lower refinancing activity due to higher interest rates. There can be no assurance that Customers will earn mortgage warehouse transactional fees in 2023 comparable to prior periods, given the lower mortgage banking activity in a higher interest rate environment. Gain (loss) on sale of $0.7SBA and other loans The $1.5 million driven by a reductiondecrease in gain on sale of SBA and other loans for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 reflects $1.5 million in gains on sales of $14.3 million of SBA loans in the volumethree months ended March 31, 2022, compared to no such sales in the three months ended March 31, 2023. There can be no assurance that Customers will realize gains from sales of warehouse transactions.

Net gain (loss) on sale of investment securities The $1.1 million decrease in net loss on sale of investment securities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 reflects net losses realized from the sale of $156.0 million in AFS debt securities during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to no such sales in the three months ended March 31, 2023. There can be no assurance that Customers will realize gains from sales of investment securities in 2023, given the significant uncertainty in the capital markets and fluctuations in our funding needs, which may impact Customers’ investment strategy. Other non-interest income The $0.9 million decrease in other non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from decreases in unrealized gains on derivatives due to changes in market interest rates, mortgage banking and deposit fees, partially offset by increases in SERP income due to changes in capital markets and gains from the sales of $5.4 million and income from bank-owned life insurance policies of $0.3 million.commercial lease assets.

Salaries and employee benefits The $5.7 million increase in salaries and employee benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from an increase in average full-time equivalent team members, annual merit increases, incentives, severance accruals and SERP expenses.
Technology, communication and bank operations The $7.5 million decrease in technology, communication and bank operations expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from decreases in deposit servicing-related expenses resulting from lower servicing fees and the discontinuation of the interchange maintenance fees paid to BM Technologies pursuant to the amended deposit servicing agreement, partially offset by $2.7 million increase in higher software licenses, fees paid for software as a service and other processing and technology-related expenses. Customers incurred expenses of $7.6 million and $17.8 million to BM Technologies under the deposit servicing agreement, included within the technology, communication and bank operations expense during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The $0.6 million increase in professional services for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in legal fees related to PPP related matters, partially offset by a decrease in outside professional services related to PPP forgiveness.

Advertising and promotion The $0.7 million increase in advertising and promotion for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from higher spending on media and advertising agencies for our deposit products. Other non-interest expense The $1.4 million increase in other non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from increases in operating losses and a provision or addition to the reserve for unfunded commitments. A provision or addition to the reserve for unfunded commitments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $61.0$0.3 million, compared to a credit or release to the reserve for unfunded commitments of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022. INCOME TAXES The table below presents income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three Months Ended March 31, | | | | | | | (dollars in thousands) | 2023 | | 2022 | | Change | | % Change | | | | | | | | | Income before income tax expense | $ | 68,284 | | | $ | 96,093 | | | $ | (27,809) | | | (28.9) | % | | | | | | | | | Income tax expense | 14,563 | | | 19,332 | | | (4,769) | | | (24.7) | % | | | | | | | | | Effective tax rate | 21.33 | % | | 20.12 | % | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The $4.8 million decrease in income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023, when compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily resulted from a decrease in pre-tax income and increased income tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023, when compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily resulted from lower death benefits from bank-owned life insurance policies and stock-based compensation benefits, partially offset by an increase of $4.8in income tax credits. PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDENDS Preferred stock dividends were $3.5 million from non-interest expense of $56.2and $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. SalariesMarch 31, 2023 and employee benefits, which represent2022, respectively. There were no changes to the largest componentamount of non-interest expense, increased $2.1 million, or 9.4%, to $24.8 million forpreferred stock outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $22.7 million forMarch 31, 2023 and 2022.
On June 15, 2021, the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries as the average number of full-time equivalent employees remained relatively consistent over the past year. Technology, communication and bank operations expenses increased by $1.9 million, or 15.0%, to $14.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increased core processing system expenses and non-capitalizable software development costs of $2.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, as well as the recapture of $3.2 million of depreciation expense in third quarter 2017 related to BankMobile for the period it was classified as held for sale. These increases were offset in part by a $3.9 million one-time expense in third quarter 2016 for technology-related services.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense increased $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 to $14.9 million, compared to $14.6 million in the same period of 2016. This increase was driven primarily by the elimination of deferred tax benefits from other-than-temporary impairment losses on investment securities totaling $7.7 million, offset in part by a decrease in pre-tax income of $13.1 million in third quarter 2017 compared to third quarter 2016.
Series E Preferred Stock Dividends Preferred stock dividends of $3.6 million increased $1.1 million, or 41.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to preferred stock dividends of $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Net income available to common shareholders decreased $6.6 million, or 12.5%three-month LIBOR plus 5.14%, to $46.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 when compared to net income available to common shareholders of $53.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decreased net income available to common shareholders primarily resulted from an increase in non-interest expense of $32.5 million, an increase in preferred stock dividends of $4.9 million, and an increase in provision for loan losses of $3.1 million. These increases were offset in part by an increase in net interest income of $13.7 million, largely reflecting the growth in interest earning assets over the past twelve months, an increase in non-interest income of $17.9 million largely as a result of a full nine months of BankMobile Disbursements operations, and a decrease in income tax expense of $2.3 million.

Non-interest expense increased $32.5 million, or 25.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $160.8 million when compared to non-interest expense of $128.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase primarily resulted from increased BankMobile expenses of $38.9 million due to the acquisition of the Disbursements business in June 2016 compared to a full nine monthsfixed rate of BankMobile Disbursements operations in 2017, offset in part by decreased FDIC assessments, taxes, and regulatory fees of $4.6 million and a one-time expense of $3.9 million in third quarter 2016 for technology-related services.

The decrease in income tax expense was driven primarily by a decrease in pre-tax income of $4.0 million in the first nine months of 2017 as well as the $4.6 million of tax benefits recognized for the increase in fair value of restricted stock units vesting and the exercise of stock options since the award date compared to $0.6 million for the the same period in 2016.

This increase was primarily driven by increased average loan and security balances of $1.0 billion.
Net interest margin (tax equivalent) narrowed by 13 basis points to 2.71% from the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The net interest margin compression largely resulted from a $1.6 million reduction in prepayment penalties in the multi-family portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net interest margin (tax equivalent) was also impacted by Customers Bancorp's issuance of $100 million principal amount of 3.95% senior notes on June 30, 2017.
Interest expense on total interest-bearing deposits increased $14.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This increase primarily resulted from increased deposit volume as average interest-bearing deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $417.1 million when compared to average interest-bearing deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits increased 2626.161 basis points for three-month LIBOR as the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30,

Interest expense on borrowings increased $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was driven by a 47 basis point increase in average rates for the period due primarily to higher rates on short term borrowings used to fund commercial loans to mortgage companies. This increase was also driven by increased volume as average borrowings increased by $143.2 million when compared to average borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses increased by $3.1 million to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2016. The provision for loan losses of $5.9 million included $2.3 million for loan portfolio growth and $3.9 million for impaired loans, offset in part by a $0.8 million release resulting from improved asset quality and lower incurred losses than previously estimated. The provision for loan losses of $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included provisions for loan portfolio growth and reserves on impaired loans of approximately $5.0 million, offset in part by increased estimated cash flows expected to be collected on purchased credit-impaired loans, a reduction in the estimated amounts owed to the FDIC for previous FDIC assisted transactions, and other recoveries of approximately $2.1 million.

Non-interest expense was $160.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $32.5 million from non-interest expense of $128.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Salaries and employee benefits, which represent the largest component of non-interest expense, increased $11.5 million, or 19.8%, to $69.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, reflecting salary increases as well as a higher average number of full-time equivalent employees, primarily resulting from a full year of BankMobile Disbursements operations.
Technology, communication and bank operations increased by $14.2 million, or 74.7%, to $33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $19.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in core processing system and conversion expenses of $9.0 million, interchange expenses of $4.7 million, non-capitalizable software development costs of $3.4 million, and depreciation expense primarily driven by the $3.2 catch-up adjustment recorded in third quarter 2017 for the period BankMobile was classified as held for sale. These increases were partially offset by a $3.9 million one-time expense in third quarter 2016 for technology-related services. The increased technology, communication, and bank operations expenses reflected a full nine months of BankMobile Disbursements activity in 2017 compared to three full months of activity for 2016.
Professional services expense increased by $7.9 million, or 60.0%, to $21.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $13.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was primarily driven by the transitional services agreement which was in effect for the twelve months following the acquisition of the Disbursement business from Higher One and ended in second quarter 2017 and increases in consulting and other professional services to support a $10.5 billion bank.
FDIC assessments, taxes, and regulatory fees decreased by $4.6 million, or 40.9%, to $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This decrease was primarily related to a lower insurance assessment charged by the FDIC as the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund reached a targeted ratio.
Provision for operating losses increased by $3.0 million, or 152.2%, to $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The provision for operating losses represents Customers' estimated liability for losses resulting from fraud or theft-based transactions that have generally been disputed by deposit account holders mainly from its BankMobile Disbursements business but where such disputes have not been resolved as of the end of the reporting period. The reserve is based on historical rates of loss on such transactions. The increase is mainly attributable to the accrual for the estimated liability for a full nine months of operations of the BankMobile Disbursements business in 2017.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense decreased $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $34.2 million when compared to income tax expense of $36.6 million for the same period of 2016. The decrease in income tax expense was driven primarily by a decrease in pre-tax income of $4.0 million in the first nine months of 2017. Customers' effective tax rate decreased to 37.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to 38.3% for the same period of 2016. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by the lower taxable income as well as the $4.6 million of tax benefits recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 for the increase in fair value of restricted stock units vesting and the exercise of stock options since the award date compared to $0.6 million for the the same period in 2016.
Preferred Stock Dividends
Preferred stock dividends increased $4.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $10.8 million, compared to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was the result of preferred stock issuances totaling $142.5 million issued in April 2016 with dividends at 6.45% and in September 2016 with dividends at 6.00%.
Financial Condition General Customers crossed the $10 billion asset threshold during the second quarter of 2017 and continued to exceed $10 billion ofCustomers' total assets were $21.8 billion at September 30, 2017 with total assets of $10.5 billion.March 31, 2023. This represented a $1.1 billion, or 11.6%,an increase of $855.5 million from total assets of $9.4$20.9 billion at December 31, 2016.2022. The change in Customers' financial position occurred primarily as the result of an increase in total loans outstanding of $0.9 billion since December 31, 2016, or 10.9%,assets was primarily driven by growthincreases of $1.6 billion in multifamily, commercialcash and industrial loans, and consumer residential loans. Commercialcash equivalents, $95.7 million in loans held for sale and $30.0 million in investment increased $0.7 billion, or 11.5%,securities held to $6.5maturity, partially offset by decreases of $751.9 million in loans receivable, PPP, $75.9 million in loans receivable, mortgage warehouse, at fair value and $60.5 million in investment securities, at fair value.
Total liabilities were $20.3 billion at September 30, 2017 compared to $5.9March 31, 2023. This represented an increase of $837.4 million from $19.5 billion at December 31, 2016, and consumer loans held for investment increased $233.2 million to $531.9 million at September 30, 2017 from $298.7 million at December 31, 2016. Given the change in disposition strategy related to BankMobile as of September 30, 2017, Customers has decided to strategically reduce its total assets to below $10 billion as of December 31, 2017 in order to continue to qualify for the small issuer exemption rules of the Durbin Amendment to optimize interchange revenue through June 30, 2019. Customers plans to reduce total assets by approximately $500 million by year-end 2017 through normal seasonality of the mortgage warehouse business, which tends to decline in the winter months, selling multi-family and residential mortgage loans, and selling investment securities as needed. In addition, Customers expects to moderately grow its commercial and industrial loan portfolio while limiting growth in its multi-family loan portfolio by disciplined pricing.
Total liabilities were $9.6 billion at September 30, 2017. This represented a $1.0 billion, or 12.1%, increase from $8.5 billion at December 31, 2016.2022.

The provision for loancredit losses on loans and leases was $2.4$18.0 million and $0.1$15.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2023 and 2016, respectively, and $5.9 million and $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016,2022, respectively. The allowance for loan lossesACL maintained for loans and leases receivable (excludes(excluding loans held for sale)sale and loans receivable, mortgage warehouse, at fair value) was $38.3$130.3 million, or 0.54%0.97% of loans and leases receivable and 0.99% of loans and leases receivable, excluding PPP (a non-GAAP measure) at September 30, 2017March 31, 2023, and $37.3$130.9 million or 0.61%0.93% of loans and leases receivable and 1.00% of loans and leases receivable, excluding PPP loans (a non-GAAP measure) at December 31, 2016.2022. Excluding loans receivable, PPP from total loans and leases receivable is a non-GAAP measure. Management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures provides additional clarity when assessing Customers' financial results. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined to be in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other entities. Please refer to the reconciliation schedule below. The decrease in the ACL resulted primarily from a decrease in consumer installment loans, partially offset by additional provision for credit losses from the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. Net charge-offs were $2.5$18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, an increase of $2.2$11.4 million compared to the same period in 2016. Net charge-offs were $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $4.0 million compared to the same period in 2016.2022. The increase in net charge-offs period over period was largely driven byprimarily due to higher charge-offs for consumer installment loans. Installment charge-offs were attributable to unsecured consumer installment loans originated or purchased through arrangements with fintech companies and other market place lenders. Refer to the charge-offtable of $1.6 million and $1.8 million during the third quarter 2017 and second quarter 2017, respectively, related to two relationships in the commercial and industrial post-2009 originated loan portfolio.

The allowance for loan lossesACL is based on a quarterly evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio and is maintained at a level that management considers adequate to absorb probableexpected losses incurred as of the balance sheet date. All commercial loans, with the exception of PPP loans and commercial mortgage warehouse loans, which are reported at fair value, are assigned credit riskinternal credit-risk ratings, based upon an assessment of the borrower, the structure of the transaction and the available collateral and/or guarantees. All loans and leases are monitored regularly by the responsible officer, and the risk ratings are adjusted when considered appropriate. The risk assessment allows management to identify problem loans and leases timely. Management considers a variety of factors and recognizes the inherent risk of loss that always exists in the lending process. Management uses a disciplined methodology to estimate an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses. See “Asset Quality”ACL. Refer to Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates herein and "NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION" to Customers' unaudited consolidated financial statements, also, refer to "NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION" to Customers' audited consolidated financial statements in its 2022 Form 10-K for further discussion on management's methodology for estimating the ACL.
Approximately 85%42% of the Bank’sCustomers' commercial real estate, commercial and residential construction, consumer residential and commercial and industrial loan types have real estate as collateral (collectively, “the real estate portfolio”). The Bank’s lien position on the real estate collateral will vary on a loan-by-loan basis and will change as a result of changes, primarily in the valueform of the collateral.a first lien position. Current appraisals providing current value estimates of the property are received when the Bank’sCustomers' credit group determines that the facts and circumstances have significantly changed since the date of the last appraisal, including that real estate values have deteriorated. The credit committee and loan officers review loans that are fifteen15 or more days delinquent and all non-accrual loans on a periodic basis. In addition, loans where the loan officers have identified a “borrower of interest” are discussed to determine if additional analysis is necessary to apply the risk ratingrisk-rating criteria properly. The risk ratings for the real estate loan portfolio are determined based upon the current information available, including but not limited to discussions with the borrower, updated financial information, economic conditions within the geographic area and other factors that may affect the cash flow of the loan. If a loan is impaired and individually evaluated for impairment, the collateral value or discounted cash flow or loan market value analysis is generally used to estimatedetermine the amountestimated fair value of proceeds expected to be collected, and that estimated amount,the underlying collateral, net of estimated selling costs, as applicable, isand compared to the outstanding loan balance to estimatedetermine the amount of impairment,reserve necessary, if any. Appraisals used in this evaluation process are typically less than two years aged. For loans where real estate is not the primary source of collateral, updated financial information is obtained, including accounts
receivable and inventory aging reports and relevant supplemental financial data to estimate the fair value of the loan, and compared, net of estimated selling costs, and compared to the outstanding loan balance to estimate the required reserve, if any.reserve. These impairment measurements are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, including, among others, estimates of property values in appraisals, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on individual loans, and general considerations for historical loss experience, economic conditions, uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent risks in the various credit portfolios, all of which require judgment and may be susceptible to significant change over time and as a result of changing economic conditions or other factors. Pursuant to ASC 310-10-35 - Loan Impairment and ASC 310-40 - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, impaired326, individually assessed loans, consisting primarily of loans placed on non-accrual and restructured under troubled debt restructurings loans, or charged-off to their net realizable value, are considered in the methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses. ImpairedACL. Individually assessed loans are generally evaluated based on the expected future cash flows if principal is expected to come from the operation of such collateral or the fair value of the underlying collateral (less estimated costs to sell) if principal repayment is expected to substantially come from the operation of the collateral or fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if repayment of the loan is expected to be provided from the sale of such collateral. Shortfalls in the underlying collateral value for loans or leases determined to be collateral dependent are charged off immediately. Subsequent to an appraisal or other fair value estimate, management will assess whether there was a further decline in the value of the collateral based on changes in market conditions or property use that would require additional impairment to be recorded to reflect the particular situation, thereby increasing the ACL on loans and leases. Asset Quality Customers divides its loan portfolio into two categories to analyze and understand loan activity and performance: loans that were originated and loans that were acquired. Customers further segments the originatedloan and acquired loan categorieslease receivables by loan product or other characteristic generally defining a shared characteristic with other loans or leases in the same group. Customers' originated loans were subject to the current underwriting standards that were put in place in 2009. Management believes this segmentation better reflects the risk in the portfolio and the various types of reserves that are available to absorb loan losses that may emerge in future periods. Credit lossesCharge-offs from originated and acquired loans and leases are absorbed by the allowance for loan losses. Credit losses from acquired loans are absorbed by the allowance for loan losses, nonaccretable difference fair value marks, and cash reserves. As described below, the allowance for loan losses is intended to absorb only those losses estimated to have been incurred after acquisition, whereas the fair value mark and cash reserves absorb losses estimated to have been embedded in the acquired loans at acquisition.ACL. The schedule that follows includes both loans held for sale and loans held for investment.

(1) Loans receivable, PPP includes PPP loans that are past due, as claims for guarantee payments are submitted to the SBA for eligible PPP loans more than 60 days past due. The total loan and lease portfolio was $15.1 billion at March 31, 2023 compared to $5.8$15.8 billion at December 31, 2022, and $32.1 million, or 94.8%0.21% of loans and leases, were non-performing at March 31, 2023 compared to $30.7 million, or 0.19% of loans and leases, at December 31, 2022. The total loan and lease portfolio was supported by an ACL of $130.3 million (405.56% of NPLs and 0.86% of total loans receivableand leases) and $130.9 million (425.95% of NPLs and 0.83% of total loans and leases), at DecemberMarch 31, 2016. The management team adopted new underwriting standards that management believes better limits risks of loss in 2009 and have worked to monitor these standards. Only $23.6 million, or 0.36% of post 2009 originated loans were non-performing at September 30, 2017, compared to $10.5 million, or 0.18% of post 2009 loans, at December 31, 2016. The post 2009 loans were supported by an allowance for loan losses of $33.5 million (0.51% of post 2009 originated loans) and $31.8 million (0.55% of post 2009 originated loans), respectively, at September 30, 20172023 and December 31, 2016.2022, respectively. Loans Acquired
At September 30, 2017, total acquired loans were $0.5 billion, or 7.7% of total loans receivable, compared to $0.3 billion, or 5.2% of total loans receivable, at December 31, 2016. Non-performing acquired loans totaled $6.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. When loans are acquired, they are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Acquired loans include purchased portfolios, FDIC assisted failed-bank acquisitions, and unassisted acquisitions. Of the manufactured housing loans purchased from Tammac prior to 2012, $53.1 million were supported by a $0.7 million cash reserve at September 30, 2017, compared to $57.6 million supported by a cash reserve of $1.0 million at December 31, 2016. The cash reserve was created as part of the purchase transaction to absorb losses and is maintained in a demand deposit account at the Bank. All current losses and delinquent interest are absorbed by this reserve. For the manufactured housing loans purchased in 2012, Tammac has an obligation to pay the Bank the full payoff amount of the defaulted loan, including any principal, unpaid interest, or advances on the loans, once the borrower vacates the property. At September 30, 2017, $32.8 million of these loans were outstanding, compared to $36.6 million at December 31, 2016.DEPOSITS
Many of the acquired loans were purchased at a discount. The price paid considered management’s judgment as to the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the portfolio at the time of purchase. Every quarter, management reassesses the risk and adjusts the cash flow forecast to incorporate changes in the credit outlook. Generally, a decrease in forecasted cash flows for a purchased loan will result in a provision for loan losses, and absent charge-offs, an increase in the allowance for loan losses. Acquired loans have a significantly higher percentage of non-performing loans than loans originated after September 2009. Management acquired these loans with the expectation that non-performing loan levels would be elevated, and therefore incorporated that expectation into the price paid. Customers has assigned these loans to its Special Assets Group, a team that focuses on workouts for these acquired non-performing assets. Total acquired loans were supported by reserves (allowance for loan losses and cash reserves) of $5.6 million (1.03% of total acquired loans) and $6.5 million (2.03% of total acquired loans), respectively, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2016, increasesMarch 31, 2023 primarily resulted from proceeds from long-term borrowed funds from the FHLB and the FRB of $2.6 billion, partially offset by repayments of long-term borrowed funds from the FHLB and FRB of $1.0 billion, a net decrease in deposits provided $1.5 billion,of $435.8 million, a net repayments ofdecrease in short-term borrowed funds from the FHLB of $300.0 million and purchases of treasury stock of $39.8 million. Cash used $663.6in financing activities of $449.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily resulted from a net decrease in short-term borrowed funds from the FHLB of $700.0 million, a net decrease in deposits of $362.4 million and purchases of treasury stock of $6.3 million, partially offset by a net increase in federal funds purchased used $18.0of $625.0 million. CAPITAL ADEQUACY The Bank and the Bancorp are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Customers' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank and the Bancorp must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, as calculated under the regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. In first quarter 2020, the U.S federal banking regulatory agencies permitted banking organizations to phase-in, for regulatory capital purposes, the day-one impact of the new CECL accounting rule on retained earnings over a period of three years. As part of its response to the impact of COVID-19, on March 31, 2020, the U.S. federal banking regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that provided the option to temporarily delay certain effects of CECL on regulatory capital for two years, followed by a three-year transition period. The interim final rule allows banking organizations to delay for two years 100% of the day-one impact of adopting CECL and 25% of the cumulative change in the reported allowance for credit losses since adopting CECL. Customers has elected to adopt the interim final rule, which is reflected in the regulatory capital data presented below. The cumulative CECL capital transition impact as of December 31, 2021 which amounted to $61.6 million net proceedswill be phased in at 25% per year beginning on January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2023, our regulatory capital ratios reflected 50%, or $30.8 million, benefit associated with the CECL transition provisions. In April 2020, the U.S. federal banking regulatory agencies issued an interim final rule that permits banks to exclude the impact of participating in the SBA PPP program in their regulatory capital ratios. Specifically, PPP loans are zero percent risk weighted and a bank can exclude all PPP loans pledged as collateral to the PPPLF from long-term FHLB advances provided $75.0 million, net proceeds fromits average total consolidated assets for purposes of calculating the issuanceTier 1 capital to average assets ratio (i.e. leverage ratio). Customers applied this regulatory guidance in the calculation of preferred stock provided $162.0 million, paymentits regulatory capital ratios presented below.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank and net proceeds from the issuanceBancorp to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of common equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and total capital to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined in the regulations). At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Bank and the Bancorp met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. Generally, to comply with the regulatory definition of adequately capitalized, or well capitalized, respectively, or to comply with the Basel III capital requirements, an institution must at least maintain the common equity Tier 1, Tier 1, and total risk-based capital ratios and the Tier 1 leverage ratio in excess of the related minimum ratios set forth in the following table: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Minimum Capital Levels to be Classified as: | | Actual | | Adequately Capitalized | | Well Capitalized | | Basel III Compliant | (dollars in thousands) | Amount | | Ratio | | Amount | | Ratio | | Amount | | Ratio | | Amount | | Ratio | As of March 31, 2023: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Common equity Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,466,676 | | | 9.624 | % | | $ | 685,809 | | | 4.500 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,066,814 | | | 7.000 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,721,118 | | | 11.313 | % | | $ | 684,636 | | | 4.500 | % | | $ | 988,919 | | | 6.500 | % | | $ | 1,064,990 | | | 7.000 | % | Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,604,469 | | | 10.528 | % | | $ | 914,412 | | | 6.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,295,417 | | | 8.500 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,721,118 | | | 11.313 | % | | $ | 912,848 | | | 6.000 | % | | $ | 1,217,131 | | | 8.000 | % | | $ | 1,293,202 | | | 8.500 | % | Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,878,449 | | | 12.326 | % | | $ | 1,219,216 | | | 8.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,600,221 | | | 10.500 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,922,468 | | | 12.636 | % | | $ | 1,217,131 | | | 8.000 | % | | $ | 1,521,414 | | | 10.000 | % | | $ | 1,597,485 | | | 10.500 | % | Tier 1 capital (to average assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,604,469 | | | 7.534 | % | | $ | 851,851 | | | 4.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 851,851 | | | 4.000 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,721,118 | | | 8.092 | % | | $ | 850,809 | | | 4.000 | % | | $ | 1,063,511 | | | 5.000 | % | | $ | 850,809 | | | 4.000 | % | As of December 31, 2022: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Common equity Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,470,837 | | | 9.637 | % | | $ | 686,838 | | | 4.500 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,068,415 | | | 7.000 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,708,598 | | | 11.213 | % | | $ | 685,694 | | | 4.500 | % | | $ | 990,447 | | | 6.500 | % | | $ | 1,066,636 | | | 7.000 | % | Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,608,630 | | | 10.539 | % | | $ | 915,784 | | | 6.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,297,361 | | | 8.500 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,708,598 | | | 11.213 | % | | $ | 914,259 | | | 6.000 | % | | $ | 1,219,012 | | | 8.000 | % | | $ | 1,295,201 | | | 8.500 | % | Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,862,089 | | | 12.200 | % | | $ | 1,221,045 | | | 8.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 1,602,622 | | | 10.500 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,889,472 | | | 12.400 | % | | $ | 1,219,012 | | | 8.000 | % | | $ | 1,523,765 | | | 10.000 | % | | $ | 1,599,954 | | | 10.500 | % | Tier 1 capital (to average assets) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customers Bancorp, Inc. | $ | 1,608,630 | | | 7.664 | % | | $ | 839,547 | | | 4.000 | % | | N/A | | N/A | | $ | 839,547 | | | 4.000 | % | Customers Bank | $ | 1,708,598 | | | 8.150 | % | | $ | 838,611 | | | 4.000 | % | | $ | 1,048,264 | | | 5.000 | % | | $ | 838,611 | | | 4.000 | % |
The Basel III Capital Rules require that we maintain a 2.500% capital conservation buffer with respect to each of common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital to risk-weighted assets, which provides for capital levels that exceed the minimum risk-based capital adequacy requirements. A financial institution with a capital conservation buffer of less than the required amount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock provided $7.3 million. These financing activities provided sufficient cash flowsrepurchases, and certain discretionary bonus payments to support Customers' investingexecutive officers. As of March 31, 2023, the Bank and operating activities.the Bancorp were in compliance with the Basel III requirements. Overall, based on our core deposit base and available sources of borrowed funds, management believes that Customers has adequate resources to meet its short-term and long-term cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
Effect of Government Monetary Policies Our earnings are and will be affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement those objectives are open market operations in United States government securities and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans and leases, investments, and deposits, and their use may also affect rates charged on loans and leases or paid for deposits.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Interest Rate Sensitivity
The largest component of ourCustomers' net income is net interest income, and the majority of ourits financial instruments are interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities with various term structures and maturities. One of the primary objectives of management is to maximizeoptimize net interest income while minimizing interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is derived from timing differences in the repricing of assets and liabilities, loan prepayments, deposit withdrawals and differences in lending and funding rates. Our Asset/Liability CommitteeCustomers' asset/liability committee actively seeks to monitor and control the mix of interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities.
We useCustomers uses two complementary methods to analyze and measure interest rate sensitivity as part of the overall management of interest rate risk. Theyrisk; they are income simulationscenario modeling and estimates of economic value of equity.EVE. The combination of these two methods provides a reasonably comprehensive summary of the levels of interest rate risk of ourCustomers' exposure to time factors and changes in interest rate environments.
Income simulationscenario modeling is used to measure our interest rate sensitivity and manage our interest rate risk. Income simulationscenario considers not only the impact of changing market interest rates upon forecasted net interest income but also other factors such as yield curve relationships, the volume and mix of assets and liabilities, customer preferences and general market conditions. Through the use of income simulationscenario modeling, we haveCustomers has estimated the net interest income for the periodtwelve months ending September 30, 2018,March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, based upon the assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments in existence at September 30, 2017. We haveMarch 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Customers has also estimated changes to that estimated net interest income based upon interest rates rising or falling immediately (“rate shocks”). For upward rate shocks modeling a rising rate environment at March 31, 2023, current market interest rates were increased immediately by 100, 200, and 300 basis points. For downward rate shocks modeling a falling rate environment at March 31, 2023, current market interest rates were only decreased immediately by 100, basis points due to the limitations of the current low interest rate environment that renders the Down 200 and Down 300 rate shocks impractical.basis points. The following table reflects the estimated percentage change in estimated net interest income for the periodtwelve months ending September 30, 2018,March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, resulting from changes in interest rates.
Net change in net interest income | | | | | | | | | | | | | % Change | Rate Shocks | March 31, 2023 | | December 31, 2022 | Up 3% | 14.2% | | 0.4% | Up 2% | 9.5% | | 0.4% | Up 1% | 5.1% | | 0.3% | Down 1% | (5.4)% | | (0.9)% | Down 2% | (11.1)% | | (2.0)% | Down 3% | (16.8)% | | (4.8)% |
| | | | Rate Shocks | % Change | Up 3% | (8.2 | )% | Up 2% | (3.0 | )% | Up 1% | (0.3 | )% | Down 1% | (2.4 | )% |
Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”)EVE estimates the discounted present value of asset and liability cash flows. Discount rates are based upon market prices for comparable assets and liabilities. Upward and downward rate shocks are used to measure volatility of EVE in relation to a constant rate environment. For upward rate shocks modeling a rising rate environment at March 31, 2023, current market interest rates were increased immediately by 100, 200, and 300 basis points. For downward rate shocks modeling a falling rate environment at March 31, 2023, current market interest rates were only decreased immediately by 100, basis points due to the limitations of the current low interest rate environment that renders the Down 200 and Down 300 rate shocks impractical.basis points. This method of measurement primarily evaluates the longer term repricing risks and options in Customers Bank’s balance sheet. The following table reflects the estimated EVE at risk and the ratio of EVE to EVE adjusted assets at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, resulting from shocks to interest rates.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | From Base | Rate Shocks | March 31, 2023 | | December 31, 2022 | Up 3% | (2.2)% | | (27.8)% | Up 2% | (0.4)% | | (16.9)% | Up 1% | 1.9% | | (6.6)% | Down 1% | (6.6)% | | 0.0% | Down 2% | (37.2)% | | (31.3)% | Down 3% | (64.1)% | | (57.2)% |
| | | | Rate Shocks | From base | Up 3% | (30.9 | )% | Up 2% | (18.7 | )% | Up 1% | (8.3 | )% | Down 1% | 4.2 | % |
Management believes that the assumptions and combination of methods utilized in evaluating estimated net interest income are reasonable. However, the interest rate sensitivity of our assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments, as well as the estimated effect of changes in interest rates on estimated net interest income, could vary substantially if different assumptions are used or actual experience differs from the assumptions used in the model.
Customers has variable rate loans, investment securities, fixed-to-floating rate senior and subordinated debt, preferred stocks and derivatives that reference LIBOR. Various regulatory bodies have encouraged banks to transition away from LIBOR as soon as practicable, generally cease entering new contracts that use LIBOR as a reference rate no later than December 31, 2021, and for new contracts to utilize a reference rate other than LIBOR or include robust language that includes a clearly defined alternative reference rate after LIBOR’s discontinuation. Certain tenors of LIBOR have ceased publication and complete cessation of LIBOR publication is expected by June 30, 2023. Effective December 31, 2021, Customers has essentially discontinued entering into new LIBOR-based contracts. Customers established an enterprise-wide LIBOR transition program, which includes a LIBOR transition team with senior management level leadership. Progress on the LIBOR transition effort is monitored by executive management as well as the asset/liability committee of Customers' Board of Directors. At March 31, 2023, Customers had LIBOR-based commercial loans and leases, commercial real estate loans and residential mortgages of $1.6 billion, which either mature before June 30, 2023 or have been amended to include appropriate alternative language to be effective upon cessation of LIBOR publication. In addition, $110.0 million of fixed-to-floating rate borrowings and $137.8 million of preferred equity instruments reference LIBOR. Customers' derivatives primarily reference LIBOR. In October 2020, the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. published the IBOR Fallbacks Supplement (“Supplement”) and the IBOR Fallback Protocol (“Protocol”). The Protocol enables market participants to incorporate certain revisions into their legacy non-cleared derivatives with other counterparties that also choose to adhere to the Protocol. Customers adhered to the IBOR Protocol in November 2020 and is in the process of remediating its interest rate swap transactions with its end-user customers. With respect to Customers' cleared interest rate swap agreements that reference LIBOR, clearinghouses have adopted the same relevant SOFR benchmark alternatives of the IBOR Supplement and IBOR Protocol. As loans mature and new originations occur a larger percentage of Customers' variable-rate loans are expected to reference SOFR. At March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $4.4 billion of outstanding loan balances that reference SOFR. Customers’ usage of interest rate swap agreements referenced to SOFR is expected to increase in response to the discontinuation of LIBOR. Customers continues to work with its customers and other counterparties to remediate LIBOR-based agreements which expire after June 30, 2023 by incorporating alternative language, negotiating new agreements, or other means. The discontinuation of LIBOR and uncertainty relating to the emergence of one or more alternative benchmark indexes to replace LIBOR could materially impact the Customers’ interest rate risk profile and its management thereof. For a discussion of the risks associated with the LIBOR transition to alternative reference rates, refer to Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" included in Customers' 2022 Form 10-K. Item 4. Controls and Procedures (a) Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.As of the end of the period covered by this report, Customers Bancorp carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Customers Bancorp’s management, including Customers Bancorp’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Customers Bancorp’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Customers Bancorp’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2017.as of March 31, 2023. (b)Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.During the quarter ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2023, there have been no changes in Customers Bancorp’sBancorp's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Customers Bancorp’sBancorp's internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” included within the 20162022 Form 10-K and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 ("the March 31, 2017 Quarterly Report") and for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 ("the June 30, 2017 Quarterly Report").10-K. There are no material changes from the risk factors included within the 20162022 Form 10-K, March 31, 2017 Quarterly Report, and June 30, 2017 Quarterly Report other than the risks describedexcept as further discussed below. The risks described within the 20162022 Form 10-K the March 31, 2017 Quarterly Report, the June 30, 2017 Quarterly Report and below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. SeeRefer to “Item 2 -– Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -– Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
We face a numberA continuation of risks relating to our announced plans to dispose of BankMobile through a spin-off and merger.
We have announced our plans to dispose of our BankMobile business through a spin-off of BankMobile to our shareholders, to be followed by a merger of our BankMobile Technologies, Inc. subsidiary, which we refer to as BMT, into Flagship Community Bank, which we refer to as Flagship. While we currently expect to execute a definitive agreement with Flagship for this transaction, as of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q, a definitive agreement has not been executed. We expect that completion of the spin-off and merger will be subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, receipt by Flagship of shareholder approvals of certain matters relating to its acquisition of BMT, Flagship’s ability to raise approximately $100 million through the issuance of shares of its common stock, and other conditions. Certain of the conditions will not be within our control and we cannot guarantee you that we will enter into a definitive agreement or that we will be able to complete the spin-off and merger on the terms we have agreed to with Flagship, or at all.
Our announcement of the spin-off and merger and the steps we take to complete those transactions may adversely affect our business and the value of Customers and/or BankMobile. Uncertainty as to our ability to execute a definitive agreement or to complete the transactions and uncertainty as to the timing of the execution of a definitive agreement or the completion of the transactions may adversely affect analyst and shareholder views of our business and prospects, which could adversely affect our share price. These uncertainties also may adversely impact our relationships with our current and potential higher education institution customers and our BankMobile employees, and could resultrecent turmoil in the loss of customersfinancial services industry, and key employees. Because we cannot be certain of completing the spin-offresponsive measures to manage it, could have an adverse effect on our stock price, financial position and merger by July 1, 2018, we are also taking steps to reduce our assets below $10 billion at December 31, 2017 in order to eliminate the risk of not receiving full interchange fees, which would occur if we no longer qualified for the smaller issuer exemption from the Durbin Amendment for 2018.
Executing the spin-off and merger also may result in the diversion of management’s attention from Customers’ day-to-day operations generally, and the expenses we incur in executing the transactions may exceed our expectations, which may adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, even if we are successful in completing the spin-off and merger, it is possible that Customers and our shareholders may not receive the benefits we presently anticipate from these transactions.
If we are unable to reduceadequately manage our total assets to below $10 billion asliquidity, deposits, capital levels, interest rate risk or reputation risk, which have come under greater scrutiny in light of December 31, 2017, our business and potential for future success could be materially adversely affected.
Under federal law and regulation, if our total assets exceed $10 billion as of December 31, 2017, we will no longer qualify as a small issuer of debit cards and we will not receive the optimal debit card processing fee. Failure to qualify for the small issuer exception would result in a significant reduction in interchange fee income beginning July 1, 2018 and could result in the BankMobile segment operating unprofitably or charging additional fees to students to replace the lost revenue. Customers plans to reduce total assets by approximately $500 million by year-end 2017 through normal seasonality of the mortgage warehouse business, which tends to decline in the winter months, selling multi-family and residential mortgage loans, and selling investment securities as needed. In addition, Customers expects to moderately grow its commercial and industrial loan portfolio while limiting growth in its multi-family loan portfolio by disciplined pricing. If Customers is unable to reduce total
assets to below $10 billion as of December 31, 2017, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The fair value of our investment securities can fluctuate due to market conditions. Adverse economic performance can lead to adverse security performance and other-than-temporary impairment.
As of September 30, 2017, the fair value of our investment securities portfolio was $584.8 million. We have historically followed a conservative investment strategy, with concentrations in securities that are backed by government sponsored enterprises. In the future, we may seek to increase yields through more aggressive strategies, which may include a greater percentage of corporate securities, structured credit products or non-agency mortgage backed securities. Factors beyond our control can significantly influence the fair value of securities in our portfolio and can cause potential adverse changes to the fair value of these securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, rating agency actions in respect of the securities, defaults by the issuer or with respect to the underlying securities, and changes in market interest rates and continued instability in the capital markets. Any of these factors, among others, such as a change in management's intent to hold the securities until recovery in fair value, could cause other-than-temporary impairments and realized and/or unrealized losses in future periods and declines in other comprehensive income, whichrecent bank failures, it could have a material adverse effect on us. The process for determining whether impairment of a security is other-than-temporary usually requires complex, subjective judgments about the future financial performance and liquidity of the issuer and any collateral underlying the security in order to assess the probability of receiving all contractual principal and interest payments on the security.
As of September 30, 2017, management evaluated its equity holdings issued by Religare for other-than-temporary impairment. Because management no longer has the intent to hold these securities until a recovery in fair value, Customers recorded other-than-temporary impairment losses of $8.3 million in third quarter 2017, $2.9 million in second quarter 2017, $1.7 million in first quarter 2017, and $7.3 million in fourth quarter 2016 for the full amount of the decline in fair value below the cost basis. The fair value of the equity securities at September 30, 2017 of $2.3 million became the new cost basis of the securities.
We may suffer losses due to minority investments in other financial institutions or related companies.
From time to time, we may make or consider making minority investments in other financial institutions or technology companies in the financial services business. If we do so, we may not be able to influence the activities of companies in which we invest, and may suffer losses due to these activities. Investments in foreign companies could pose additional risks as a result of distance, language barriers and potential lack of information (for example, foreign institutions, including foreign financial institutions, may not be obligated to provide as much information regarding their operations as those in the United States). Our investment in Religare, which is a diversified financial services company in India, represents such an investment. In fourth quarter 2016, we announced our decision to exit our investment in Religare. As a result of that decision, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $7.3 million in earnings in fourth quarter 2016 and adjusted our cost basis of the Religare securities to their estimated fair value of $15.2 million at December 31, 2016. In first quarter 2017, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $1.7 million and adjusted our cost basis of the Religare securities to their estimated fair value of $13.5 million at March 31, 2017. In second quarter 2017, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $2.9 million and adjusted our cost basis of the Religare securities to their estimated fair value of $10.7 million at June 30, 2017. In third quarter 2017, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment loss of $8.3 million and adjusted our cost of the Religare equity securities to their estimated fair value of $2.3 million at September 30, 2017. To the extent we are unable to exit the Religare investment as planned, and pursuant to the terms contemplated, further declines in the marketstock price, per share of the Religare common stock and adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
In recent months, several financial services institutions have failed or required outside liquidity support. The impact of this situation has led to market volatility and risk of additional stress to other financial services institutions and the financial services industry generally, in part as a result of increased lack of confidence in the financial services sector. While the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC have made statements regarding the safety and soundness of the banking system and taken actions, such as establishing the Bank Term Funding Program, as an additional source of liquidity for banks, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful in restoring customer confidence. As a result of these events, certain of our customers chose, and may choose in the future, to withdraw deposit amounts in favor of keeping deposits at larger financial institutions that may be perceived to be more stable, or seek to switch their existing deposits into other higher yielding alternatives, any of which could materially adversely affect our liquidity, loan funding capacity, net interest margin, capital and results of operations.
In addition, these recent events may result in potentially adverse changes to laws or regulations governing banks and bank holding companies, increased oversight by regulatory authorities and/or the imposition of restrictions on certain business activities through supervisory or enforcement activities, including higher capital or liquidity requirements, which could have a material impact on our current and planned business. The cost of resolving the recent bank failures is also expected to result in action by the FDIC to increase its deposit insurance premiums or assessments. These recent events also have led to a greater focus by regulators and investors on liquidity of existing assets and funding sources for financial institutions, the composition of deposits, including the amount of uninsured deposits, the amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss, capital levels and interest rate risk management. The increased influence of social media and other communication channels on the public perception of financial institutions and their operations can create reputation risk, which can adversely affect our stock price or the public’s perception of our stability or viability, even where such concerns are unwarranted. If we are unable to adequately manage our liquidity, deposits, capital levels, interest rate risk or reputation risk, it could have a material adverse effect on our stock price, financial condition, results of operations or regulatory standing.

Dividends on Common Stock Customers Bancorp historically has not paid any cash dividends on its shares of common stock and does not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of Customers Bancorp’s Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including earnings and financial condition, liquidity and capital requirements, the general economic and regulatory climate, ability to service any equity or debt obligations senior to our common stock, including obligations to pay dividends to the holders of Customers Bancorp's issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. In addition, as a bank holding company, Customers Bancorp is 750,551 shares.subject to general regulatory restrictions on the payment of cash dividends. Federal bank regulatory agencies have the authority to prohibit bank holding companies from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their business, which, depending on the financial condition and liquidity of the holding company at the time, could include the payment of dividends. Further, various federal and state statutory provisions limit the amount of dividends that bank subsidiaries can pay to their parent holding company without regulatory approval. Generally, subsidiaries are prohibited from paying dividends when doing so would cause them to fall below the regulatory minimum capital levels, and limits exist on paying dividends in excess of net income for specified periods. Beginning January 1, 2015, the ability to pay dividends and the amounts that can be paid will be limited to the extent the Bank's capital ratios do not exceed the minimum required levels plus 250 basis points, as these requirements were phased in through January 1, 2019.
