1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

Headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (Nasdaq: AUB) is the holding company for Atlantic Union Bank. Atlantic Union Bank has 149 branches and approximately 170 ATMs located throughout Virginia, and in portions of Maryland and North Carolina. Middleburg Financial is a brand name used by Atlantic Union Bank and certain affiliates when providing trust, wealth management, private banking, and investment advisory products and services. Certain non-bank affiliates of Atlantic Union Bank include: Old Dominion Capital Management, Inc., and its subsidiary, Outfitter Advisors, Ltd., Dixon, Hubard, Feinour, & Brown, Inc., and Middleburg Investment Services, LLC, which provide investment advisory and/or brokerage services; and Union Insurance Group, LLC, which offers various lines of insurance products.

On March 13, 2020, the United States President declared a national emergency in the face of a growing public health and economic crisis due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. Within a few days of the declaration of a national emergency, governors of states comprising the Company’s geographic footprint issued states of emergency in response to the novel COVID-19. As a result of this pandemic, actions were taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of COVID 19, which have impacted the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law. The CARES Act is designated to provide financial relief to the American people and American businesses in response to the economic fallout from COVID-19. The CARES Act, as well as other interagency guidance, provide enhanced guidelines and accounting for COVID-19 related modifications.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and follow general practice within the banking industry. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other period.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASC 326. This ASU updates the existing guidance to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to unfunded credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments). The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and unfunded credit exposures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. As a result of adopting ASC 326, the Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $39.1 million.

ASC 326 also replaced the Company’s current accounting for PCI loans. With the adoption of ASC 326, previously classified PCI loans are now classified as PCD loans. The Company adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for financial assets with PCD that were previously identified as PCI and accounted for under ASC 310-30. On January 1, 2020, the amortized cost basis of the PCD assets were adjusted to reflect the addition of $2.4 million to the ACL. The remaining noncredit discount (based on the adjusted amortized cost basis) will be accreted into interest income at the effective interest rate as of January 1, 2020.

The Company’s adoption of ASC 326 resulted in a change in the accounting and reporting related to PCI loans which are now defined as PCD and evaluated at the loan level instead of being evaluated in pools under PCI accounting. In accordance with

ASC 326, the Company did not re-assess whether individual modifications were needed to individual acquired financial assets accounted for in the pools with troubled debt restructurings as of the date of adoption.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the prospective transition approach for debt securities. The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed. Upon adoption of ASC 326, the Company did not have any securities included in its portfolio where OTTI had previously been recognized.

The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The provision for loan losses charged to operations is an amount sufficient to bring the allowance to an estimated balance that management considers adequate to absorb expected losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. The ALLL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of any purchase premiums and discounts and net of any deferred loan fees and costs.

The ALLL represents management’s estimate of credit losses over the remaining life of the loan portfolio. Loans are charged off against the ALLL when management believes the loan balance is no longer collectible. Subsequent recoveries of previously charged off amounts are recorded as increases to the ALLL.

Management’s determination of the adequacy of the ALLL is based on an evaluation of the composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and other risk factors. The ALLL is estimated by pooling loans by call code and credit risk indicator and applying a loan-level PD/LGD method for all loans with the exception of its auto and third party consumer lending portfolios. For auto and third party consumer portfolios, the Company has elected to pool those loans based on similar risk characteristics to determine the ALLL using vintage and loss rate methods. The Company utilizes a forecast period of two years and then reverts to the mean of historical loss rates on a straight-line basis over the following two-year period. The Company considers economic forecasts and recession probabilities from highly recognized third-parties to inform the model for loss estimation. Management also considers qualitative factors when estimating loan losses to take into account model limitations. The Company’s Allowance Committee approves the key methodologies and assumptions, as well as the final ALLL on a quarterly basis. While management uses available information to estimate expected losses on loans, future changes in the ALLL may be necessary based on changes in portfolio composition, portfolio credit quality, and/or economic conditions.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. The individual reserve component relates to loans that have shown substantial credit deterioration as measured by risk rating and/or delinquency status. In addition, the Company has elected the practical expedient that would include loans for individual assessment consideration if the repayment of the loan is expected substantially through the operation or sale of collateral because the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Where the source of repayment is the sale of collateral, the ALLL is based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, less selling costs, compared to the amortized cost basis of the loan. If the ALLL is based on the operation of the collateral, the reserve is calculated based on the fair value of the collateral calculated as the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral, compared to the amortized cost basis. If the Company determines that the value of a collateral dependent loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company charges off the deficiency if it is determined that such amount is deemed to be a confirmed loss. Typically, a loss is confirmed when the Company is moving towards foreclosure (or final disposition).

In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, the Company grants a concession in the loan structure to the borrower that is would not otherwise consider, the related loan is classified as a TDR. With the exception of loans with interest rate concessions, the ALLL on a TDR is measured using the same method as all other loans held for investment. For loans with interest rate concessions, the Company uses a discounted cash flow approach using the original interest rate.

Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The reserve for unfunded commitments is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded and is included in “Other Liabilities” within the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Accrued Interest Receivable

The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis in its determination of the ACL reserve for both loans and HTM securities, as well as elected the policy to write-off accrued interest receivable directly through the reversal of interest income. Accrued interest receivable totaled $31.1 million on loans held for investment and, $5.2 million on HTM securities at March 31, 2020 and is included in “Other Assets” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Acquired Loans

The Company has purchased loans, some of which have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. Acquired loans are recorded at their fair value at acquisition date without carryover of the acquiree’s previously established ALLL, as credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value. The fair value of the loans is determined using market participant assumptions in estimating the amount and timing of both principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and then applying a market-based discount rate to those cash flows. During evaluation upon acquisition, acquired loans are also classified as either PCD or acquired performing.

The purchase discount on acquired performing loans is accounted for under ASC 310-20, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The difference between the fair value and unpaid principal balance of the loan at acquisition date (premium or discount) is amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the loans. If the acquired performing loan has revolving privileges, it is accounted for using the straight-line method; otherwise, the effective interest method is used.

PCD loans reflect loans that have experienced more-than-insignificant credit deterioration since origination. These PCD loans are accounted for under ASC 326. Credit risk characteristics include risk rating groups, nonaccrual status, and past due status. For valuation purposes, these pools are further disaggregated by maturity, pricing characteristics, and re-payment structure.

PCD loans are recorded at the amount paid. An ALLL is determined using the same methodology as other loans held for investment. For PCD loans not individually assessed, the initial ALLL is determined on a collective basis and is allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan's purchase price and ALLL becomes its initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the par value of the loan is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the ALLL are recorded through provision expense.

The PCD loans are and will continue to be subject to the Company’s internal and external credit review and monitoring.

Allowance for Credit Losses on HTM Securities

The Company evaluates the credit risk of its securities on at least a quarterly basis. Management estimates expected credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities based on an individual basis based on the PD/LGD methodology primarily using security-level credit ratings. Management recorded an immaterial ACL on HTM securities as a result of the adoption of ASC 326, and no additional changes were needed at March 31, 2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses on AFS Securities

For AFS securities, the Company evaluates the fair value and credit quality of its AFS securities on at least a quarterly basis. In the event the fair value of a security falls below its amortized cost basis, the security will be evaluated to determine whether the decline in value was caused by changes in market interest rates or security credit quality. The primary indicators of credit quality for the Company’s AFS portfolio are security type and credit rating, which is influenced by a number of security-specific factors that may include obligor cash flow, geography, seniority, and others. There is currently no ACL held against the Company’s AFS securities portfolio at March 31, 2020. See Note 3 “Securities,” for additional information on the Company’s ACL analysis. If unrealized losses are related to credit quality, the Company estimates the credit related loss by evaluating the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis of the security and a credit loss exists, an ACL shall be recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than amortized cost basis.

Business Combinations and Divestitures

On February 1, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of Access. Refer to the Note 2 “Acquisitions” for additional information.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company has an aggregate goodwill balance of $935.6 million associated with previous merger transactions, which is primarily associated with commercial and consumer banking.

Goodwill resulting from business combinations prior to January 1, 2009 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations after January 1, 2009 is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exists that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. The Company has selected April 30th as the date to perform the annual impairment test. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment testing as of April 30, 2019 and determined that there was no impairment to its goodwill.

The Company performed an interim impairment review as of March 31, 2020 and considered various factors including, the results of the prior year impairment test, the Company’s most recent forecasts, and the Company’s recent stock price movements, and concluded that no impairment existed as of the balance sheet date.

Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 4 to 10 years, to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life included on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, would no longer depreciated. Management performed a review of impairment through March 31, 2020, and concluded no impairment of these assets existed as of the balance sheet date.

2. ACQUISITIONS

Access Acquisition

On February 1, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of Access National Corporation (and its subsidiaries), a bank holding company based in Reston, Virginia. Holders of shares of Access’s common stock received 0.75 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for each share of Access’s common stock, resulting in the Company issuing 15,842,026 shares of the Company’s common stock at a fair value of approximately $500.0 million. In addition, the Company paid cash of approximately $12,000 in lieu of fractional shares.

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition, in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. The measurement period was formally closed as of February 1, 2020, and the Company did not make any measurement period adjustments in January of 2020.

Merger-related costs associated with the acquisition of Access were $0 and $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Such costs include legal and accounting fees, lease and contract termination expenses, system conversion, and employee severances, which have been expensed as incurred.

3. SECURITIES

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASC 326, which made changes to the accounting for AFS debt securities whereby credit losses should be presented as an allowance, rather than as a write-down when management does not intend to sell and does not believe that it is more likely than not they will be required to sell prior to maturity. In addition, ASC 326 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost, including held-to-maturity debt securities, to measure an expected credit loss under the CECL methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For further discussion on the Company’s accounting policies and policy elections related to the accounting standard update refer to Note 1 “Accounting Policies”.

All securities information presented as of March 31, 2020 is in accordance with ASC 326. All securities information presented prior to March 31, 2020 is in accordance with previous applicable GAAP. See the Company’s prior accounting policies in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the 2019 Form 10-K.

As of March 31, 2020, there were $36.4 million, or 20 issues, of individual AFS securities that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months and had an aggregate unrealized loss of $1.0 million. As of December 31, 2019, there were $75.0 million, or 47 issues, of individual securities that had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months and had an aggregate unrealized loss of $696,000.

The Company has determined the securities that were in an unrealized loss position with no allowance for credit loss as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were based on the reasons set out below:

Obligations of state and political subdivisions. This category’s unrealized losses are primarily the result of market volatility. The majority of the securities are of high credit quality (rated A- or higher) and the issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments on the bonds. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer(s) to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of each investment. The Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and the accounting standard of “more likely than not” has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis.

Corporate and other bonds. This category’s unrealized losses are the result of market volatility. The majority of these securities remain investment grade and the Company’s analysis did not indicate the existence of a credit loss. The contractual terms of the investments do not permit the issuer(s) to settle the securities at a price less than the cost basis of each investment. The Company does not intend to sell any of the investments and the accounting standard of “more likely than not” has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity.

Mortgage-backed securities. The majority of these securities are of high credit quality (rated A or higher) or are issued by FNMA, FHLMC, and GNMA and do not have credit risk given the implicit and explicit government guarantees associated with these agencies. In addition, the issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. Current market volatility has caused certain securities to experience a non-credit related decline in value. The majority of the securities in an unrealized loss position are guaranteed with implicit and explicit government guarantees associated. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost, which may be maturity.

The Company’s mortgage-backed securities portfolio includes non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations with a fair value of $40.6 million which had unrealized losses of approximately $1.3 million at March 31, 2020. These non-agency mortgage-backed securities were generally rated AAA or equivalent at purchase and generally received a 20% SSFA rating. The Company does not intend to sell the investments, and the accounting standard of "more likely than not" has not been met for the Company to be required to sell any of the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. The issuer(s) continues to make timely principal and interest payments. As such, the Company does not consider these investments to have credit related impairment as of March 31, 2020.

Held to Maturity

The Company’s HTM investment portfolio primarily consists of highly-rated municipal securities and the estimated credit loss inherent in the portfolio is currently immaterial. The Company’s HTM securities were all current, with no securities past due or on non-accrual at March 31, 2020.

The Company reports HTM securities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at carrying value. Carrying value is amortized cost, which includes any unamortized unrealized gains and losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income prior to reclassifying the securities from AFS securities to HTM securities. Investment securities transferred into the

HTM category from the AFS category are recorded at fair value at the date of transfer. The unrealized holding gain or loss at the date of transfer is retained in accumulated other comprehensive income and in the carrying value of the HTM securities. Such unrealized gains or losses are accreted over the remaining life of the security with no impact on future net income.

estimates expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on an individual basis based on the PD/LGD methodology primarily using security-level credit ratings. The Company’s HTM securities ACL was immaterial at the adoption of ASC 326. The Company re-evaluated the HTM securities ACL at March 31, 2020 and concluded no additional reserve was needed at March 31, 2020. The primary indicators of credit quality for the Company’s HTM portfolio are security type and credit rating, which is influenced by a number of factors including obligor cash flow, geography, seniority, and others. The Company’s only credit risk HTM securities are obligations of states and political subdivisions.

Restricted Stock, at cost

Due to restrictions placed upon the Bank’s common stock investment in the Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB, these securities have been classified as restricted equity securities and carried at cost. These restricted securities are not subject to the investment security classifications and are included as a separate line item on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the FHLB required the Bank to maintain stock in an amount equal to 4.25% of outstanding borrowings and a specific percentage of the Bank’s total assets. The Federal Reserve Bank required the Bank to maintain stock with a par value equal to 6% of the Bank’s outstanding capital at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Restricted equity securities consist of Federal Reserve Bank stock in the amount of $67.0 million for both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and FHLB stock in the amount of $63.2 million and $63.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has TDRs totaling $20.4 million with an estimated $1.9 million of allowance for those loans for the current period.

A modification of a loan’s terms constitutes a TDR if the creditor grants a concession that it would not otherwise consider to the borrower for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. All loans that are considered to be TDRs are evaluated for credit losses in accordance with the Company’s ALLL methodology. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the recorded investment in TDRs prior to modifications was not materially impacted by the modifications.

The CARES Act permits financial institutions to suspend requirements under GAAP for loan modifications to borrowers affected by COVID-19 that would otherwise be characterized as TDRs. In addition, federal bank regulatory authorities have issued guidance to encourage financial institutions to make loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19 and have assured financial institutions that they will neither receive supervisory criticism for such prudent loan modifications, nor be required by examiners to automatically categorize COVID-19-related loan modifications as TDRs. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company had made loan modifications of this nature totaling approximately $75 million.

The following table provides a summary, by class, of TDRs that continue to accrue interest under the terms of the applicable restructuring agreement, which are considered to be performing, and TDRs that have been placed on nonaccrual status, which are considered to be nonperforming, as of March 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

The Company considers a default of a TDR to occur when the borrower is 90 days past due following the restructure or a foreclosure and repossession of the applicable collateral occurs. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any material loans that went into default that had been restructured in the twelve-month period prior to the time of default.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

ALLL on the loan portfolio is a material estimate for the Company. The Company estimates its ALLL on its loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. The Company models the ALLL using two primary segments, Commercial and Consumer. Within each segment, loan classes are further identified based on similar risk characteristics. The Company has identified the following classes within each segment:

●

Commercial: Construction and Land Development, Commercial Real Estate – Owner Occupied, Commercial Real Estate – Non-Owner Occupied, Multifamily Real Estate, Commercial & Industrial, Residential 1-4 Family – Commercial, and Other Commercial

●

Consumer: Residential 1-4 Family – Consumer, Residential 1-4 Family – Revolving, Auto, and Consumer

The following tables show the ALLL activity by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

Credit Quality Indicators

Credit quality indicators are utilized to help estimate the collectability of each loan class within the Commercial and Consumer segments. For classes of loans within the Commercial segment, the primary credit quality indicator used for evaluating credit quality and estimating the ALLL is risk rating categories of Pass, Watch & Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful. For classes of loans within the Consumer segment, the primary credit quality indicator used for evaluating credit quality and estimating the ALLL is delinquency bands of Current, 30-59, 60-89, 90+, and Nonaccrual. While other credit quality indicators are evaluated and analyzed as part of the Company’s credit risk management activities, these indicators are primarily used in estimating the ALLL. The Company evaluates the credit risk of its loan portfolio on at least a quarterly basis.

Commercial Loans

The Company uses a risk rating system as the primary credit quality indicator for classes of loans within the Commercial segment. The risk rating system on a scale of 0 through 9 is used to determine risk level as used in the calculation of the allowance for credit loss; The risk levels, as described below, do not necessarily follow the regulatory definitions of risk levels with the same name. A general description of the characteristics of the risk levels follows:

Pass is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 0 loans have little or no risk and are with General Obligation Municipal Borrowers;

●

Risk rated 1 loans have little or no risk and are generally secured by cash or cash equivalents;

●

Risk rated 2 loans have minimal risk to well qualified borrowers and no significant questions as to safety;

●

Risk rated 3 loans are satisfactory loans with strong borrowers and secondary sources of repayment;

●

Risk rated 4 loans are satisfactory loans with borrowers not as strong as risk rated 3 loans and may exhibit a greater degree of financial risk based on the type of business supporting the loan;

Watch & Special Mention is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 5 loans are watch loans that warrant more than the normal level of supervision and have the possibility of an event occurring that may weaken the borrower’s ability to repay;

●

Risk rated 6 loans have increasing potential weaknesses beyond those at which the loan originally was granted and if not addressed could lead to inadequately protecting the Company’s credit position;

Substandard is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 7 loans are substandard loans and are inadequately protected by the current sound worth or paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged; these have well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt with the distinct possibility the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected;

Doubtful is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 8 loans are doubtful of collection and the possibility of loss is high but pending specific borrower plans for recovery, its classification as a loss is deferred until its more exact status is determined;

●

Risk rated 9 loans are loss loans which are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted

At December 31, 2019, the Company considered TDRs to be impaired loans. A modification of a loan’s terms constitutes a TDR if the creditor grants a concession that it would not otherwise consider to the borrower for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. All loans that are considered to be TDRs are evaluated for impairment in accordance with the Company’s allowance for credit loss methodology.

The Company uses a risk rating system and past due status as the primary credit quality indicators for the loan categories. The risk rating system on a scale of 0 through 9 is used to determine risk level as used in the calculation of the allowance for loan loss; The risk levels, as described below, do not necessarily follow the regulatory definitions of risk levels with the same name. A general description of the characteristics of the risk levels follows:

Pass is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 0 loans have little or no risk and are with General Obligation Municipal Borrowers;

●

Risk rated 1 loans have little or no risk and are generally secured by cash or cash equivalents;

●

Risk rated 2 loans have minimal risk to well qualified borrowers and no significant questions as to safety;

●

Risk rated 3 loans are satisfactory loans with strong borrowers and secondary sources of repayment;

●

Risk rated 4 loans are satisfactory loans with borrowers not as strong as risk rated 3 loans and may exhibit a greater degree of financial risk based on the type of business supporting the loan; or

●

Loans that are not risk rated but that are 0 to 29 days past due.

-29-

Table of Contents

Watch & Special Mention is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 5 loans are watch loans that warrant more than the normal level of supervision and have the possibility of an event occurring that may weaken the borrower’s ability to repay;

●

Loans that are not risk rated but that are 30 to 89 days past due.

Substandard is determined by the following criteria:

●

Loans that are not risk rated but that are 90 to 149 days past due.

Doubtful is determined by the following criteria:

●

Risk rated 9 loans are loss loans which are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted; or

●

Loans that are not risk rated but that are over 149 days past due.

Acquired Loans

Loans acquired are originally recorded at fair value, with certain loans being identified as impaired at the date of purchase. The fair values were determined based on the credit quality of the portfolio, expected future cash flows, and timing of those expected future cash flows.

The following shows changes in the accretable yield for loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, as of March 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,

(1)	This line item represents changes in the cash flows expected to be collected due to the impact of non-credit changes such as prepayment assumptions, changes in interest rates on variable rate PCI loans, and discounted payoffs that occurred in the quarter.

5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company’s intangible assets consist of core deposits, goodwill, and other intangibles arising from acquisitions. The Company has determined that core deposit intangibles have finite lives and amortizes them over their estimated useful lives. Core deposit intangibles are being amortized over the period of expected benefit, which ranges from 4 to 10 years, using an accelerated method. Other amortizable intangible assets are being amortized over the period of expected benefit, which ranges from 4 to 10 years, using various methods.

Amortization expense of intangibles for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled $4.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2020, the estimated remaining amortization expense of intangibles is as follows for the years ending (dollars in thousands):


For the remaining nine months of 2020	$	12,113
2021		13,874

6. LEASES

The Company leases branch locations, office space, land, and equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. At March 31, 2020 all leases were classified as operating leases with approximately 160 non-cancellable operating leases where the Company is the lessee. The Company does not have any material arrangements where the Company is the lessor or in a sublease contract. Leases where the Company is a lessee are primarily for real estate leases with remaining lease terms of up to 14 years. The Company’s real estate lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees and most agreements do not contain restrictive covenants.

Operating leases have been reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as an operating ROU Asset within “Other Assets” and an operating lease liability within “Other Liabilities.” The ROU Asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the course of the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating ROU Asset is recognized at commencement date based on the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made excluding lease incentives, and any initial direct costs incurred. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the total ROU Asset were $53.6 million and $54.9 million, respectively, and total operating lease liabilities were $64.2 million and $66.1 million, respectively. Most of the Company’s leases include one or more options to renew, however, the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise those options and therefore does not include the renewal options in the measurement of the ROU Asset and lease liabilities.

Total lease expenses are recorded in Occupancy Expense within noninterest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Total operating lease expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, were $2.9 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had no material operating leases that have not yet commenced that create significant rights and obligations, and no material sales leaseback transactions.

Maturities of operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2020 are as follows for the years ending (dollars in thousands):


For the remaining nine months of 2020	$	9,714
2021		11,523

The Company maintains an alternate line of credit at a correspondent bank, the available balance was $25.0 million at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company has certain restrictive covenants related to certain asset quality, capital, and profitability metrics associated with these lines and is considered to be in compliance with such covenants as of March 31, 2020. Additionally, the Company had a collateral dependent line of credit with the FHLB of up to $5.3 billion and $5.2 billion at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Long-term Borrowings

In connection with several previous bank acquisitions, the Company issued and acquired trust preferred capital notes of $58.5 million and $87.0 million, respectively.

The total of the trust preferred capital securities and investments in the respective trusts represents the principal asset of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the capital securities. The Company’s investment in the trusts is reported in "Other Assets" on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2)	Rate as of March 31, 2020.

During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company issued $150.0 million of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes with an initial fixed interest rate of 5.00% through December 15, 2021. The interest rate then changes to a floating rate of LIBOR plus 3.175% through its maturity date on December 15, 2026. In connection with the acquisition of Xenith on January 1, 2018, the Company acquired $8.5 million of subordinated notes with a fair value premium of $259,000, which was $25,000 at March 31, 2020. The acquired subordinated notes have a fixed interest rate of 6.75% and a maturity date of June 30, 2025. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contractual principal reported for subordinated notes was $158.5 million; remaining issuance discount as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is $1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The subordinated notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for the Company for regulatory purposes. The Company has certain restrictive covenants related to certain asset quality, capital, and profitability metrics associated with the acquired subordinated notes and was considered to be in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2020.

On August 23, 2012, the Company modified its fixed rate FHLB advances to floating rate advances, which resulted in reducing the Company’s FHLB borrowing costs. In connection with this modification, the Company incurred a prepayment penalty of $19.6 million on the original advances which was deferred and to be amortized over the term of the modified advances using the effective rate method. The amortization expense is included as a component of interest expense on long-term borrowings on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and was $493,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. On August 29, 2019, the Company repaid the floating rate FHLB advances.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation Matters

In the ordinary course of its operations, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings. Based on the information presently available, and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome in such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or results of operations of the Company.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk. The Company considers credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments by undergoing a similar process in evaluating losses for loans that are carried on the balance sheet. The Company considers historical loss and funding information, current and future economic conditions, risk ratings, and past due status among other factors in the consideration of expected credit losses in the Company’s off-balance sheet commitments to extend credit. The Company also records an indemnification reserve that includes balances relating to mortgage loans previously sold based on historical statistics and loss rates. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s reserves for off-balance sheet credit risk and indemnification were $10.7 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers as long as there are no violations of any conditions established in the contracts. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

The following table presents the balances of commitments and contingencies (dollars in thousands):


	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Commitments with off-balance sheet risk:
Commitments to extend credit ⁽¹⁾	$	4,605,213	$	4,691,272
Standby letters of credit		165,371		209,658
Total commitments with off-balance sheet risk	$	4,770,584	$	4,900,930

(1) Includes unfunded overdraft protection.

Prior to the first quarter of 2020, the Company was required to maintain a reserve against its deposits in accordance with Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Act. On March 15, 2020, the Federal Reserve Board announced that reserve requirement ratios would be reduced to zero percent effective March 26, 2020. This action eliminated reserve requirements for all depository institutions.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $261.7 million in deposits in other financial institutions, of which $246.4 million served as collateral for cash flow and loan swap derivatives. The Company had approximately $12.1 million in deposits in other financial institutions that were uninsured at March 31, 2020. At least annually, the Company’s management evaluates the loss risk of its uninsured deposits in financial counterparties.

9. DERIVATIVES

The Company is exposed to economic risks arising from its business operations and uses derivatives primarily to manage risk associated with changing interest rates, and to assist customers with their risk management objectives. The Company designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship (cash flow or fair value hedge). The remaining are classified as free-standing derivatives consisting of customer accommodation loan swaps and interest rate lock commitments that do not qualify for hedge accounting.

Derivatives Counterparty Credit Risk

Derivative instruments contain an element of credit risk that arises from the potential failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of the contract. The Company’s exposure to derivative counterparty credit risk, at any point in time, is equal to the amount reported as a derivative asset on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, assuming no recoveries of underlying collateral.

Effective January 1, 2019, as required under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Company clears eligible derivative transactions through CCPs such as the CME and LCH, which are often referred to as “central clearinghouses”. The Company clears certain OTC derivatives with central clearinghouses through FCMs as part of the regulatory requirement. The use of the CCPs and the FCMs reduces the Company’s bilateral counterparty credit exposures while it increases the Company’s credit exposures to CCPs and FCMs. The Company is required by CCPs to post initial and variation margin to mitigate the risk of non-payment through the Company’s FCMs. The Company’s FCM agreements governing these derivative transactions generally include provisions that may require the Company to post more collateral or otherwise change terms in the Company’s agreements under certain circumstances. For CME and LCH-cleared OTC derivatives, the Company characterizes variation margin cash payments as settlements.

The Company also enters into legally enforceable master netting agreements and collateral agreements, where possible, with certain derivative counterparties to mitigate the risk of default on a bilateral basis. These bilateral agreements typically provide the right to offset exposures and require one counterparty to post collateral on derivative instruments in a net liability position to the other counterparty.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company designates derivatives as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows related to forecasted transactions on variable rate financial instruments. The Company uses interest rate swap agreements as part of its hedging strategy by exchanging a notional amount, equal to the principal amount of the borrowings or commercial loans, for fixed-rate interest based on benchmarked interest rates. The original terms and conditions of the interest rate swaps vary and range in length. Amounts receivable or payable are recognized as accrued under the terms of the agreements.

All swaps were entered into with counterparties that met the Company’s credit standards, and the agreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Company concluded that the credit risk inherent in the contract is not significant.

The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship on a periodic basis using statistical regression analysis. The Company also measures the ineffectiveness of each hedging relationship using the change in variable cash flows method which compares the cumulative changes in cash flows of the hedging instrument relative to cumulative changes in the hedged item’s cash flows. In accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, the effective portions of the derivatives’ unrealized gains or losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. Based on the Company’s assessment, its cash flow hedges are highly effective.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company terminated one interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge prior to its respective maturity date. The net loss reclassified into earnings totaled $1.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. This loss is immediately recognized into earnings as the forecasted transaction will not occur.

The Company did not have any derivatives designated as cash flow hedges outstanding at March 31, 2020.

Fair Value Hedge

Derivatives are designated as fair value hedges when they are used to manage exposure to changes in the fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities, referred to as the hedged items, which fluctuate in value as a result of movements in interest rates.

-39-

Table of Contents

Loans: During the normal course of business, the Company enters into swap agreements to convert certain long-term fixed-rate loans to floating rates to hedge the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk. The Company pays a fixed interest rate to the counterparty and receives a floating rate from the same counterparty calculated on the aggregate notional amount. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate notional amount of the related hedged items for certain long-term fixed rate loans totaled $82.0 million and $83.1 million, respectively, and the fair value of the related hedged items was an unrealized loss of $6.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

AFS Securities: The Company has entered into a swap agreement to hedge the interest rate risk on a portion of its fixed rate available for sale securities. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate notional amount of the related hedged items of the AFS securities totaled $50 million and the fair value of the related hedged items was an unrealized loss of $8.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

The Company applies hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the fair value hedge and the underlying hedged item, attributable to the risk being hedged, are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses being recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. Statistical regression analysis is used to assess hedge effectiveness, both at inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis. The regression analysis involves regressing the periodic change in fair value of the hedging instrument against the periodic changes in fair value of the asset being hedged due to changes in the hedged risk. The Company’s fair value hedges continue to be highly effective and had no material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income, but if any ineffectiveness exists, portions of the unrealized gains or losses would be recorded in interest income or interest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Loan Swaps

During the normal course of business, the Company offers interest rate swap loan relationships (“loan swaps”) to its borrowers to help meet their financing needs. Upon entering into the loan swaps, the Company enters into offsetting positions with a third party in order to minimize interest rate risk. These back-to-back loan swaps qualify as financial derivatives with fair values as reported in “Other Assets” and “Other Liabilities” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes key elements of the Company’s derivative instruments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, segregated by derivatives that are considered accounting hedges and those that are not (dollars in thousands):

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. ASC 820 clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants.

ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 based on these two types of inputs are as follows:

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

Level 2 Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the markets.

Level 3 Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about what market participants would use and information that is reasonably available under the circumstances without undue cost and effort.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

Derivative instruments

As discussed in Note 9 “Derivatives”, the Company records derivative instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company utilizes derivative instruments as part of the management of interest rate risk to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain portions of the Company’s interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The Company has contracted with a third party vendor to provide valuations for derivatives using standard valuation techniques and therefore classifies such valuations as Level 2. Third party valuations are validated by the Company using Bloomberg Valuation Service’s derivative pricing functions. No material differences were identified during the validation as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its derivative assets and has considered its own credit risk in the valuation of its derivative liabilities. Mortgage banking derivatives as of March 31, 2020 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

AFS Securities

AFS securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data (Level 2). If the inputs used to provide the evaluation for certain securities are unobservable and/or there is little, if any, market activity, then the security would fall to the lowest level of the hierarchy (Level 3).

The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily valued using fair value measurements that are considered to be Level 2. The Company has contracted with a third party portfolio accounting service vendor for valuation of its securities portfolio. The vendor’s primary source for security valuation is IDC, which evaluates securities based on market data. IDC utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and include available trade, bid, and other market information. Generally, the methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary models, vast descriptive terms and conditions databases, as well as extensive quality control programs.

-43-

Table of Contents

The vendor utilizes proprietary valuation matrices for valuing all municipals securities. The initial curves for determining the price, movement, and yield relationships within the municipal matrices are derived from industry benchmark curves or sourced from a municipal trading desk. The securities are further broken down according to issuer, credit support, state of issuance, and rating to incorporate additional spreads to the industry benchmark curves.

The carrying value of restricted Federal Reserve Bank and FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of each entity and is therefore excluded from the table below.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are carried at fair value. These loans currently consist of residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded in current period earnings as a component of "Mortgage banking income" on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents the balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets after they are evaluated for impairment. The primary assets accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are related to foreclosed properties, former bank premises, and collateral-dependent loans that are individually assessed. When the asset is secured by real estate, the Company measures the fair value utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data. Management may discount the value from the appraisal in determining the fair value if, based on its understanding of the market conditions, the collateral had been impaired below the appraised value (Level 3). The assets for which a nonrecurring fair value measurement was recorded during the period ended March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $6.6 million and $11.9 million, respectively. The nonrecurring valuation adjustments for these assets did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments for interim periods and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

HTM Securities

-45-

Table of Contents

The Company primarily uses Bloomberg Valuation Service, an independent information source that draws on quantitative models and market data contributed from over 4,000 market participants, to validate third party valuations. Any material differences between valuation sources are researched by further analyzing the various inputs that are utilized by each pricing source. No material differences were identified during the validation as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company’s level 3 securities are a result of the Access acquisition and are comprised of asset-backed securities and municipal bonds. Valuations of the asset-backed securities are provided by a third party vendor specializing in the SBA markets, and are based on underlying loan pool information, market data, and recent trading activity for similar securities. Valuations of the municipal bonds are provided by a third party vendor that specializes in hard-to-value securities, and are based on a discounted cash flow model and considerations for the complexity of the instrument, likelihood it will be called and credit ratings. The Company reviews the valuation of both security types for reasonableness in the context of market conditions and to similar bonds in the Company’s portfolio. Any material differences between valuation sources are researched by further analyzing the various inputs that are utilized by each pricing source. No material differences were identified during the validation as of March 31, 2020.

Loans

The fair value of loans was estimated using an exit price, representing the amount that would be expected to be received if the Company sold the loans. The fair value of performing loans was estimated through use of discounted cash flows. Credit loss assumptions were based on market PD/LGD for loan cohorts. The discount rate was based primarily on recent market origination rates. Fair value of loans individually assessed for impairment and their respective levels within the fair value hierarchy are described in the previous section related to fair value measurements of assets that are measured on a nonrecurring basis.

Bank owned life insurance

The carrying value of BOLI approximates fair value. The Company records these policies at their cash surrender value, which is estimated using information provided by insurance carriers.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of certificates of deposits were valued using a discounted cash flow calculation that includes a market rate analysis of the current rates offered by market participants for certificates of deposits that mature in the same period.

Accrued Interest

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. Borrowers with fixed rate obligations, however, are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely,

-47-

Table of Contents

depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.

12. REVENUE

The majority of the Company’s noninterest income comes from short term contracts associated with fees for services provided on deposit accounts, credit cards, and wealth management accounts and is being accounted for in accordance with Topic 606. Typically, the duration of a contract does not extend beyond the services performed; therefore, the Company concluded that discussion regarding contract balances is immaterial.

The Company’s performance obligations on revenue from interchange fees and deposit accounts are generally satisfied immediately, when the transaction occurs, or by month-end. Performance obligations on revenue from fiduciary and asset management fees are generally satisfied monthly or quarterly. For a majority of fee income on deposit accounts the Company is a principal, controlling the promised good or service before transferring it to the customer. For the majority of income related to wealth management income, the Company is an agent, responsible for arranging for the provision of goods and services by another party.

Noninterest income disaggregated by major source, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):

14. SEGMENT REPORTING & DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On May 23, 2018, the Bank announced that it had entered into an agreement with a third-party mortgage company TFSB to allow TFSB to offer residential mortgages from certain Bank locations on the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement. Concurrently with this arrangement, the Bank began the process of winding down the operations of UMG, the Company’s reportable mortgage segment. Effective at the close of business June 1, 2018, UMG was no longer originating mortgages in its name. The decision to wind down the operations of UMG was based on a number of strategic priorities and other factors, including the additional investment in the business required to achieve the necessary scale to be competitive. As a result of this decision, the community bank segment is the only remaining reportable segment and does not require separate reporting disclosures.

On May 30, 2019, the Bank notified TFSB that the Bank was terminating its primary agreement with TFSB and will no longer allow TFSB to offer residential mortgages from Bank locations. UMG operations remain discontinued, although the Company continues to offer residential mortgages through a division of the Bank.

As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020, the assets and liabilities, as well as the operating results, of the discontinued mortgage segment were not considered material. As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets included assets and liabilities from discontinued operations of $668,000 and $640,000, respectively. Management believes there are no material on-going obligations with respect to UMG’s business that have not been recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents summarized operating results of the discontinued mortgage segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated interim financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for the allowance for credit losses effective January 1, 2020 due to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326 in the Accounting Standards Codification).

Basis for Review Results

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis is presented to aid the reader in understanding and evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This discussion and analysis should be read with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the notes to the financial statements, and the other financial data included in this report, as well as the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K, including the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section therein. Highlighted in the discussion are material changes from prior reporting periods and identifiable trends materially affecting the Company. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year or for any other period. Amounts are rounded for presentation purposes; however, some of the percentages presented are computed based on unrounded amounts.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that include, without limitation, projections, predictions, expectations, or beliefs about future events or results that are not statements of historical fact.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with U.S. GAAP and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The Company’s financial position and results of operations are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions, and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in the Company’s consolidated financial position and/or results of operations. The Company evaluates its critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and updates them, as needed. Management has discussed the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The critical accounting and reporting policies include the Company’s accounting for the ACL, acquired loans, business combinations and divestitures, and goodwill and intangible assets. The Company’s accounting policies are fundamental to understanding the Company’s consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, the Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” contained in Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K.

The Company provides additional information on its critical accounting policies and estimates listed above under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in its 2019 Form 10-K and in Note 1 “Accounting Policies” within Part I of Item I of this Quarterly Report.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (ISSUED BUT NOT ADOPTED)

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance was issued to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing specific technical exceptions that often produce information investors have a hard time understanding. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the impacts from this standard.

The impact of the worsening economic forecast related to COVID-19 subsequent to the adoption of ASC 326 further increased the ACL by $55.1 million to $150.0 million at March 31, 2020. The ACL included an ALLL of $141.0 million and an RUC of $9.0 million.

Recent Developments

COVID-19 Pandemic. The Company’s financial performance generally, and in particular the ability of its borrowers to repay their loans, the value of collateral securing those loans, as well as demand for loans and other products and services the Company offers, is highly dependent on the business environment in its primary markets where it operates and in the United States as a whole.

In December 2019, COVID-19 was reported in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization (the “WHO”) declared the COVID-19 outbreak to constitute a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on January 30, 2020. Over the course of the first quarter of 2020, COVID-19 has developed into a worldwide outbreak and, on March 11, 2020, the WHO characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States issued a proclamation declaring a national state of emergency in response to COVID-19. During the final two weeks of March 2020, the governors of multiple U.S. states, including Virginia, where the Company has its principal place of business, issued stay-at-home orders that directed the closing of non-essential businesses and restricted public gatherings. The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to be a significant health concern in the Company’s areas of operation, the United States and across the globe. The pandemic is having a wide range of economic impacts, involving the possibility of an extended economic recession. The pandemic has severely disrupted supply chains and adversely affected production, demand, sales, and employee productivity across a range of industries. It has dramatically increased unemployment in the Company’s areas of operation and nationally. It is expected that the national economy and economies in the Company’s areas of operations will continue to be affected throughout fiscal year 2020. In addition, the pandemic may have social and other impacts that are not yet known but may affect the Company’s customers, employees, and vendors. These events have adversely affected the Company’s operations in the first quarter of 2020 and are expected to impact its business, financial condition, and results of operations throughout fiscal year 2020. The duration, nature, and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operational and financial

performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration, spread, and severity of the outbreak, the pandemic’s impact on its customers, employees, and vendors and the nature and effect of past and future federal and state governmental and private sector responses to the pandemic, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Future developments with respect to COVID-19 are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted and new information may emerge concerning the nature and severity of the outbreak, short- and long-term health impacts, the actions to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, and unforeseen effects of the pandemic, among others. Other national health concerns, including the outbreak of other contagious diseases or pandemics may adversely affect the Company in the future.

The Bank has been participating in the SBA PPP under the CARES Act, which was intended to provide economic relief to small businesses that have been adversely impacted by COVID-19. The Bank has received SBA approval for more than 10,000 loans with a total loan amount of approximately $1.8 billion.

The Bank anticipates that it will also participate in the Main Street Lending Program, which is being established by the Federal Reserve to support lending to eligible small and medium-sized businesses that were in sound financial condition before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

(1) Refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section within this Item 2 for more information about these measures, including a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

For the first quarter of 2020, net interest income was $135.0 million, an increase of $7.5 million from the first quarter of 2019. For the first quarter of 2020, net interest income (FTE) was $137.8 million, an increase of $7.5 million from the first quarter of 2019. The increases in both net interest income and net interest income (FTE) were primarily driven by higher average loan balances and higher purchased loan discount accretion. Net accretion related to acquisition accounting increased $3.7 million from the first quarter of 2019 to $9.4 million in the first quarter of 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, net interest margin decreased 23 basis points to 3.49% from 3.72% in the first quarter of 2019, and net interest margin (FTE) decreased 24 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2019. The net decline in net interest margin and net interest margin (FTE) measures were primarily driven by a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by a smaller decrease in cost of funds. The decrease in interest-bearing asset yields was primarily due to the decrease in market interest rates. The decrease in cost of funds was primarily attributable to the decrease in short-term market interest rates and the composition of interest-bearing liabilities.

The Federal Open Markets Committee lowered Federal Funds target rates for the first time in 11 years on July 31, 2019 and then again in September 2019 and October 2019, for a combined decrease of 75 basis points during 2019. In response to market volatility related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the FOMC again lowered Federal Funds target rates twice in March 2020, for a combined decrease of 150 basis points. The FOMC’s current Federal Funds target rate range is currently 0% to 0.25%. As a consequence, long-term interest rates have decreased. The Company anticipates that these actions by the FOMC will continue to put downward pressure on its net interest margin.

Noninterest income increased $4.0 million, or 15.9%, to $28.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $24.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The increase in the first quarter of 2020 was partially attributable to the full-quarter impact of the Access acquisition that occurred in February 2019. Gains on securities transactions increased $1.8 million from the quarter ended March 31, 2019. In addition, loan related interest rate swap income increased $2.5 million, and insurance related revenue increased $821,000 from the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Partially offsetting these increases was a decline of $3.4 million in interchange income primarily due to reduced debit card interchange transaction fees as a result of the Durbin Amendment which was effective for the Company on July 1, 2019.

Noninterest expense decreased $11.1 million, or 10.4%, to $95.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $106.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Excluding merger-related costs, amortization of intangible assets, and rebranding-related costs, operating noninterest expense ⁽¹⁾for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 increased $7.3 million, or 8.6%, compared to the first quarter of 2019. The increase in the first quarter of 2020 was partially attributable to the full-quarter impact of the Access acquisition that occurred in February 2019. Salaries and benefits increased $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2020 primarily due to annual merit adjustments, increases in group insurance costs, and the full-quarter impact of the Access acquisition. Other expenses in the first quarter of 2020 included $1.0 million in support of a community development initiative and approximately $380,000 of expenses incurred related to the Company’s response to COVID-19.

financial measure, including a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures

calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes is based upon the results of operations, adjusted for the effect of certain tax-exempt income and non-deductible expenses. In addition, certain items of income and expense are reported in different periods for financial reporting and tax return purposes. The tax effects of these temporary differences are recognized currently in the deferred income tax provision or benefit. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the applicable enacted marginal tax rate.

The Bank is not subject to a state income tax in its primary place of business (Virginia). The Company’s other subsidiaries are subject to state income taxes and have historically generated losses for state income tax purposes. State net operating loss carryovers will begin to expire after 2026.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was 12.2% and 14.9%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rates is primarily due to the proportion of tax-exempt income to pre-tax income.

DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Overview

Assets

At March 31, 2020, total assets were $17.8 billion, an increase of $284.4 million, or approximately 6.5% (annualized), from $17.6 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in assets was primarily a result of loan growth.

Loans held for investment, net of deferred fees and costs, were $12.8 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $157.9 million, or 5.0% (annualized), from December 31, 2019. Quarterly average loans increased $1.5 billion, or 13.2%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2019 due to the full-quarter impact of loans acquired in February of 2019 with the Access acquisition. Refer to "Loan Portfolio" within Item 2 and Note 4 "Loans and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses" in Part I of Item I for additional information on the Company’s loan activity.

Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity

At March 31, 2020, total liabilities were $15.4 billion, an increase of $372.0 million from $15.0 billion at December 31, 2019.

Total deposits were $13.6 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $248.1 million, or approximately 7.5% (annualized), from December 31, 2019. Quarterly average deposits increased $1.9 billion, or 16.4%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to the full-quarter impact of deposits acquired in February of 2019 with the Access acquisition. Refer to “Deposits” within this Item 2 for further discussion on this topic.

At March 31, 2020, stockholders’ equity was $2.4 billion, a decrease of $87.7 million from December 31, 2019. The decrease in stockholders’ equity is primarily related to the previously announced stock repurchase plan and the impact of the adoption of ASC 326. The Company’s capital ratios continue to exceed the minimum capital requirements for regulatory purposes. Refer to “Capital Resources” within this Item 2 for additional information on the Company’s capital ratios.

The Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.25 per share during the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $0.02 per share, or 8.7%, compared to the dividend paid during the first quarter of 2019.

Securities

At March 31, 2020, the Company had total investments in the amount of $2.7 billion, or 14.9% of total assets, as compared to $2.6 billion, or 15.0% of total assets, at December 31, 2019. The Company seeks to diversify its portfolio to minimize risk. It focuses on purchasing mortgage-backed securities for cash flow and reinvestment opportunities and securities issued by states and political subdivisions due to the tax benefits and the higher yield offered from these securities. The majority of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities are agency-backed securities, which have a government guarantee. The investment portfolio has a high percentage of municipal securities; therefore, the Company earns a higher taxable equivalent yield on its portfolio as compared to many of its peers. For information regarding the hedge transaction related to available for sale securities, see Note 9 "Derivatives" in Part I of Item I of this Form 10-Q.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company maintained a diversified municipal bond portfolio with approximately 65% of its holdings in general obligation issues and the majority of the remainder backed by revenue bonds. Issuances within the State of Texas represented 19% of the municipal portfolio; no other state had a concentration above 10%. Substantially all municipal holdings are considered investment grade. When purchasing municipal securities, the Company focuses on strong underlying ratings for general obligation issuers or bonds backed by essential service revenues.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, money market investments, federal funds sold, loans held for sale, and securities and loans maturing or re-pricing within one year. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary through federal funds lines with several correspondent banks, a line of credit with the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Discount Window, the purchase of brokered certificates of deposit, and a corporate line of credit with a large correspondent bank. Management considers the Company’s overall liquidity to be sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and to meet its customers’ credit needs.

As of March 31, 2020, liquid assets totaled $5.8 billion, or 32.4%, of total assets, and liquid earning assets totaled $5.6 billion, or 35.4% of total earning assets. Asset liquidity is also provided by managing loan and securities maturities and cash flows. As of March 31, 2020, approximately $4.8 billion, or 37.8% of total loans, are scheduled to mature within one year based on contractual maturity, adjusted for expected prepayments, and approximately $378.4 million, or 14.3% of total securities, are scheduled to mature within one year.

Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary. Refer to Note 7 “Borrowings” in Part I of Item 1 for additional information and the available balances on various lines of credit. In addition to lines of credit, the Bank may also borrow additional funds by purchasing certificates of deposit through a nationally recognized network of financial institutions. Refer to “Deposits” within this Item 2 for additional information and outstanding balances on purchased certificates of deposits.

The Company remains committed to originating soundly underwritten loans to qualifying borrowers within its markets. The Company is focused on providing community-based financial services and discourages the origination of portfolio loans outside of its principal trade areas. As reflected in the loan table, at March 31, 2020, the largest components of the Company’s loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate, commercial & industrial, and construction and land development loans. The risks attributable to these concentrations are mitigated by the Company’s credit underwriting and monitoring processes,

including oversight by a centralized credit administration function and credit policy and risk management committee, as well as seasoned bankers focusing their lending to borrowers with proven track records in markets with which the Company is familiar.

Asset Quality

Overview

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company experienced increases in NPAs primarily due to the inclusion of assets not previously reported as nonperforming that are now considered such under CECL. Past due loan levels as a percentage of total loans held for investment at March 31, 2020 were down from past due loan levels at December 31, 2019 and up from past due loan levels at March 31, 2019. Net charge-off levels increased slightly from the first quarter of 2019 and were primarily related to the third-party consumer loan portfolio. The allowance for credit losses increased from December 31, 2019, as a result of the adoption of ASC 326 as well as a worsening economic forecast due to the impact of COVID-19, which also led to an increase in the provision for credit losses.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The total recorded investment in TDRs as of March 31, 2020 was $20.4 million, an increase of $860,000, or 4.4%, from $19.5 million at December 31, 2019 and a decrease of $5.1 million, or 20.1%, from $25.5 million at March 31, 2019. Of the $20.4 million of TDRs at March 31, 2020, $14.9 million, or 73.0%, were considered performing while the remaining $5.5 million were considered nonperforming.

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Affected by COVID-19

On March 22, 2020, the five federal bank regulatory agencies and the Conference of State Bank Supervisors issued joint guidance with respect to loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19 (the “March 22 Joint Guidance”). The March 22 Joint Guidance encourages banks, savings associations, and credit unions to make loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19 and, importantly, assures those financial institutions that they will not (i) receive supervisory criticism for such prudent loan modifications and (ii) be required by examiners to automatically categorize COVID-19-related loan modifications as TDRs. The federal banking regulators have confirmed with FASB that short-term loan modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current (i.e., less than 30 days past due on contractual payments) prior to any loan modification are not TDRs.

In addition, Section 4013 of the CARES Act signed into law by President Trump on March 27, 2020 provides banks, savings associations, and credit unions with the ability to make loan modifications related to COVID-19 without categorizing the loan as a TDR or conducting the analysis to make the determination, which is intended to streamline the loan modification process. Any such suspension is effective for the term of the loan modification; however, the suspension is only permitted for loan modifications made during the effective period and only for those loans that were not more than thirty days past due as of December 31, 2019.

The Company made approximately $75 million in loan modifications in the first quarter of 2020 pursuant to the March 22 Joint Guidance or Section 4013 of the CARES Act. The Company will continue to make such loan modifications in the second quarter of 2020 and anticipates it will continue to make such loan modifications for so long as they are permitted under the March 22 Joint Guidance and Section 4013 of the CARES Act. As of May 7, 2020, the Company had approved approximately $1.9 billion in loan modifications.

Nonperforming Assets

At March 31, 2020, NPAs totaled $48.5 million, an increase of $15.5 million from December 31, 2019. NPAs as a percentage of total outstanding loans at March 31, 2020 were 0.38%, an increase of 12 basis points from 0.26% at December 31, 2019. The increase in NPAs is due to the addition of $14.4 million of loans previously accounted for as PCI. The Company’s adoption of ASC 326 resulted in a change in the accounting and reporting related to PCI loans which are now defined as PCD and evaluated at the loan level instead of being evaluated in pools under PCI accounting. All prior period nonaccrual and past due loan metrics discussed herein have not been restated for CECL accounting and exclude PCI-related loan balances.

Past Due Loans

At March 31, 2020, total accruing past due loans were $75.1 million, or 0.59% of total loans held for investment, compared to $76.6 million, or 0.61% of total loans held for investment, at December 31, 2019 and $51.4 million, or 0.43% of total loans held for investment, at March 31, 2019.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, net charge-offs were $5.0 million, or 0.16% of total average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $4.2 million, or 0.15%, for the same quarter last year. The majority of net charge-offs in 2020 were related to the third-party consumer loan portfolio.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $60.2 million, an increase of $56.4 million compared with the same quarter last year. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2020 included $56.3 million in provision

-72-

Table of Contents

for loan losses and $3.9 million in provision for unfunded commitments. The increase in the provision for credit losses was due to the impact of the worsening economic forecast due to the impact of COVID-19 under CECL accounting for credit losses.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At March 31, 2020, the ACL was $150.0 million and included an ALLL of $141.0 million and an RUC of $9.0 million. The ACL increased $106.8 million from December 31, 2019, primarily due to the adoption of CECL (the “CECL Day 1 impact”) as well as the impact of the worsening economic forecast related to COVID-19 subsequent to the adoption of CECL (the “CECL Day 2 impact”).

The ALLL increased $98.7 million from December 31, 2019, due to the CECL Day 1 impact of $47.5 million and the CECL Day 2 impact of $51.2 million. The ALLL as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 1.10% at March 31, 2020 and 0.34% at December 31, 2019. The ratio of the ALLL to nonaccrual loans was 320.4% at March 31, 2020, compared to 149.8% at December 31, 2019.

The RUC increased $8.1 million from December 31, 2019, due to the CECL Day 1 impact of $4.2 million and the CECL Day 2 impact of $3.9 million.

Capital Resources

Capital resources represent funds, earned or obtained, over which financial institutions can exercise greater or longer control in comparison with deposits and borrowed funds. The adequacy of the Company’s capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis with reference to size, composition, and quality of the Company’s resources and consistency with regulatory requirements and industry standards. Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses, yet allow management to effectively leverage its capital to maximize return to stockholders.

The Federal Reserve requires the Company and the Bank to comply with the following minimum capital ratios: (i) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0% of risk-weighted assets; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% of risk-weighted assets; (iii) a total capital ratio of 10.5% of risk-weighted assets; and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.0% of total assets. These ratios, with the exception of the leverage ratio, include a 2.5% capital conservation buffer, which is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.

On July 10, 2019, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program to purchase up to $150.0 million of the Company’s common stock through June 30, 2021 in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions. On March 20, 2020, the Company suspended its share repurchase program, which had approximately

-74-

Table of Contents

$20 million remaining in authorization at the time. The Company repurchased an aggregate of approximately 3.7 million shares, at an average price of $35.48 per share, to date under the authorization, prior to suspension.

On March 27, 2020 the banking agencies issued an interim final rule that allows the Company to phase in the impact of adopting CECL up to two years, with a three-year transition period to phase out the cumulative benefit to regulatory capital provided during the two-year delay. The Company is allowed to include the impact of the CECL transition, which is defined as the Day 1 impact to capital plus 25% of the Company’s provision for credit losses during 2020, in regulatory capital through 2021. Beginning in 2022, the transition amount will begin to impact regulatory capital by phasing it in over a three-year period ending in 2024.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The following information is intended to update, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained under the caption “Supervision and Regulation” in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act was signed into law by the President of the United States on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides for approximately $2.2 trillion in emergency economic relief measures including, among other things, loan programs for small and mid-sized businesses and other economic relief for impacted businesses and industries, including financial institutions. Many of the CARES Act’s programs are dependent upon the direct involvement of U.S. financial institutions and will be implemented through rules and guidance adopted by federal departments and agencies, including the U.S. Department of Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and other federal bank regulatory authorities, including those with direct supervisory jurisdiction over the Company and the Bank.

Set forth below is a brief overview of certain provisions of the CARES Act and certain other regulations and supervisory guidance related to the COVID-19 pandemic that are applicable to the operations and activities of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Bank. The following description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of CARES Act and the statutes, regulations, and policies described herein. Such statutes, regulations, and policies are subject to ongoing review by U.S. Congress and federal regulatory authorities. Future amendments to the provisions of the CARES Act or changes to any of the statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries could have a material effect on the Company. Many of the requirements called for in the CARES Act and related regulations and supervisory guidance will be implemented over time and most will be subject to implementing regulations over the course of the coming weeks. The Company

will continue to assess the impact of the CARES Act and other statutes, regulations, and supervisory guidance related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

CARES Act

Paycheck Protection Program. The CARES Act amends the SBA loan program, in which the Bank participates, to create a guaranteed, unsecured loan program, the PPP, to fund operational costs of eligible businesses, organizations, and self-employed persons during COVID-19. Nearly $350 billion in initial funds was authorized for the PPP, which the SBA will use to guarantee 100% of the amounts loaned under the PPP by lenders to eligible small businesses, nonprofits, veterans organizations, and tribal businesses. The Bank is participating as a lender under the PPP. On April 16, 2020, the SBA announced that the initial $350 billion in available funds had been exhausted and applications were no longer being accepted. On April 27, 2020, the PPP relaunched with $310 billion of additional funds that had been appropriated by Congress for the PPP.

Troubled Debt Restructuring and Loan Modifications for Affected Borrowers. The CARES Act permits financial institutions to suspend requirements under GAAP for loan modifications to borrowers affected by COVID-19 that would otherwise be characterized as TDRs and suspend any determination related thereto if (i) the loan modification is made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of December 31, 2020 or 60 days after the end of the COVID-19 emergency declaration and (ii) the applicable loan was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. In addition, federal bank regulatory authorities have issued guidance to encourage financial institutions to make loan modifications for borrowers affected by COVID-19 and have assured financial institutions that they will neither receive supervisory criticism for such prudent loan modifications, nor be required by examiners to automatically categorize COVID-19-related loan modifications as TDRs.

Debt Guarantees, Account Insurance Increase, and Temporary Lending Limit Relief. The CARES Act also authorized several key initiatives directly applicable to federal bank regulatory authorities, including (i) the establishment of a program by the FDIC to guarantee the debt obligations of solvent insured depository institutions and their affiliates (including their holding companies) through December 31, 2020 and (ii) an increase by the FDIC and the National Credit Union Association to the insurance coverage on any noninterest-bearing transaction accounts through December 31, 2020.

The CARES Act encourages the Federal Reserve, in coordination with the Secretary of the Treasury, to establish or implement various programs to help midsize businesses, nonprofits, and municipalities, including (i) a midsize business/nonprofit organization program to provide financing to banks and other lenders to make direct loans to eligible businesses and nonprofit organizations with between 500 and 10,000 employees and (ii) the Municipal Liquidity Facility to provide liquidity to the financial system that supports state and local governments. On April 9, 2020, the Federal Reserve announced and solicited comments regarding the Main Street Lending Program, which would implement certain of these recommendations. Further action regarding the Main Street Lending Program is expected soon.

Separately and in response to COVID-19, the Federal Reserve’s FOMC has set the federal funds target rate – i.e., the interest rate at which depository institutions such as the Bank lend reserve balances to other depository institutions overnight on an uncollateralized basis – to an historic low. On March 16, 2020, the FOMC set the federal funds target rate at 0 to 0.25%. Consistent with Federal Reserve policy, the Federal Reserve has committed to the use of overnight reverse repurchase agreements as a supplementary policy tool, as necessary, to help control the federal funds rate and keep it in the target range set by the FOMC.

In addition, the Federal Reserve has expanded the size and scope of three existing programs to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 outbreak: (i) the Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility; (ii) the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility; and (iii) the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility. The Federal Reserve has also established two new program facilities – the Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility and the Commercial Paper Funding Facility – to broaden its support for the flow of credit to households and businesses during COVID-19.

Temporary Regulatory Capital Relief Related to Impact of CECL

Concurrent with enactment of the CARES Act, the federal bank regulatory authorities issued an interim final rule to provide banking organizations that are required to implement CECL before the end of 2020 the option to delay the estimated

impact on regulatory capital by up to two years, with a three-year transition period to phase out the cumulative benefit to regulatory capital provided during the two-year delay. The Company has elected this option.

Temporary BSA Reporting Relief

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s FinCEN has provided targeted relief from certain BSA reporting requirements and have provided updated guidance to financial institutions on complying with such requirements during COVID-19. Specifically, FinCEN has (i) granted targeted relief to financial institutions participating in the PPP, stating that PPP loans to existing customers will not require re-verification under applicable BSA requirements, unless re-verification is otherwise required under the financial institution’s risk-based BSA compliance program, (ii) acknowledged that there may be “reasonable delays in compliance” due to COVID-19, and (iii) temporarily suspended implementation of its February 2020 ruling, which would have entailed significant changes to currency transaction reporting filing requirements for transactions involving sole proprietorships and entities operating under a “doing business as” or other assumed name.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In reporting the results of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has provided supplemental performance measures on a tax-equivalent, tangible, operating, and/or pre-tax pre-provision basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are a supplement to GAAP used to prepare the Company’s financial statements and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of other companies. The Company uses the non-GAAP measures discussed herein in its analysis of the Company’s performance.

Net interest income (FTE) and total revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE) and operating efficiency ratio (FTE), respectively, provide valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components.

The Company believes tangible common equity is an important indication of its ability to grow organically and through business combinations as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies. Tangible common equity is used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible common equity and related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses.

The operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes the amortization of intangible assets and merger-related costs. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors as it excludes certain costs resulting from acquisition activity allowing for greater comparability with others in the industry and allowing investors to more clearly see the combined economic results of the organization’s operations. In prior periods, the Company has not excluded the amortization of intangibles from noninterest expense when calculating the operating efficiency ratio (FTE). The Company has adjusted its presentation for all periods in this release to exclude the amortization of intangibles from noninterest expense.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates, and equity prices. The Company’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The ALCO of the Company is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to this risk. The Company’s Board of Directors reviews and approves the guidelines established by ALCO.

Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of three complementary modeling tools: static gap analysis, earnings simulation modeling, and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk models has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the Company, the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain interest rate relationships. Static gap, which measures aggregate re-pricing values, is less utilized because it does not effectively measure the options risk impact on the Company and is not addressed here. Earnings simulation and economic value models, which more effectively measure the cash flow and optionality impacts, are utilized by management on a regular basis and are explained below.

The Company determines the overall magnitude of interest sensitivity risk and then formulates policies and practices governing asset generation and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments. These decisions are based on management’s expectations regarding future interest rate movements, the states of the national, regional and local economies, and other financial and business risk factors. The Company uses simulation modeling to measure and monitor the effect of various interest rate scenarios and business strategies on net interest income. This modeling reflects interest rate changes and the related impact on net interest income and net income over specified time horizons.

Earnings Simulation Analysis

Management uses simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates. This method is subject to the accuracy of the assumptions that underlie the process, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other analyses, such as the static gap analysis discussed above.

Assumptions used in the model are derived from historical trends and management’s outlook and include loan and deposit growth rates and projected yields and rates. These assumptions may not materialize and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. The model also does not take into account any future actions of management to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes. Such assumptions are monitored by management and periodically adjusted as appropriate. All maturities, calls, and prepayments in the securities portfolio are assumed to be reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage-backed securities prepayment assumptions are based on industry estimates of prepayment speeds for portfolios with similar coupon ranges and seasoning. Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and are reflected in the different rate scenarios.

The Company uses its simulation model to estimate earnings in rate environments where rates are instantaneously shocked up or down around a “most likely” rate scenario, based on implied forward rates and futures curves. The analysis assesses the impact on net interest income over a 12-month time horizon after an immediate increase or “shock” in rates, of 100 basis points up to 300 basis points. The model, under all scenarios, does not drop the index below zero.

Table of Contents

The following table represents the interest rate sensitivity on net interest income for the Company across the rate paths modeled for balances as of March 31, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):


	Change In Net Interest Income
	March 31,
	2020		2019
	%	$	%	$
Change in Yield Curve:
+300 basis points	11.05	62,352	9.80	55,995
+200 basis points	7.85	44,311	6.84	39,070
+100 basis points	4.19	23,661	3.45	19,689
Most likely rate scenario	—	—	—	—
-100 basis points	(2.54)	(14,345)	(4.65)	(26,580)
-200 basis points	(2.68)	(15,124)	(10.14)	(57,948)

Asset sensitivity indicates that in a rising interest rate environment, the Company’s net interest income would increase and in a decreasing interest rate environment, the Company’s net interest income would decrease. Liability sensitivity indicates that in a rising interest rate environment, the Company’s net interest income would decrease and in a decreasing interest rate environment, the Company’s net interest income would increase.

From a net interest income perspective, the Company was more asset sensitive as of March 31, 2020, compared to its position as of March 31, 2019. This shift is in part due to the changing market characteristics of certain loan and deposit products and in part due to various other balance sheet strategies. The Company would expect net interest income to increase with an immediate increase or shock in market rates. In the decreasing interest rate environments, the Company would expect a decline in net interest income as interest-earning assets re-price at lower rates and interest-bearing deposits remain near their floors.

Economic Value Simulation

Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in net economic value over different rate environments is an indication of the longer-term earnings capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation. The economic value simulation uses instantaneous rate shocks to the balance sheet.

The following chart reflects the estimated change in net economic value over different rate environments using economic value simulation for the balances at the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):


	Change In Economic Value of Equity
	March 31,
	2020		2019
	%	$	%	$
Change in Yield Curve:
+300 basis points	(2.88)	(86,378)	(5.12)	(171,082)
+200 basis points	(0.86)	(25,798)	(3.04)	(101,410)
+100 basis points	0.75	22,581	(1.27)	(42,426)
Most likely rate scenario	—	—	—	—
-100 basis points	(7.76)	(232,546)	(0.91)	(30,425)
-200 basis points	(8.42)	(252,356)	(3.59)	(119,959)

As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s economic value of equity is less sensitive in a rising interest rate environment compared to March 31, 2019 primarily due to the composition of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and due in part to the market characteristics of certain loans and deposits.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has taken measures to maintain the internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. There have been no changes that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of its operations, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings. Based on the information presently available, and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome in such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the business or the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report, except as described below.

An investment in the Company’s securities involves risks. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, including the information addressed under “Forward-Looking Statements,” investors in the Company’s securities should carefully consider the factors discussed below, as well as the factors discussed in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report. These factors could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and capital position and could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from its historical results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report, in which case the trading price of the Company’s securities could decline.

Risks Related to the Company’s Operations

The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting adverse economic conditions have already adversely impacted the Company’s business and results, and could have a more material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The ongoing COVID-19 global and national health emergency has caused significant disruption in the United States and international economies and financial markets. The spread of COVID-19 in the United States has caused illness, quarantines, cancellation of events and travel, business and school shutdowns, reduction in commercial activity and financial transactions, supply chain interruptions, increased unemployment, and overall economic and financial market instability. Almost all states, including Virginia, where the Company is headquartered, and Maryland and North Carolina, in which the Company has significant operations, have issued “stay-at-home orders” and have declared states of emergency.

Although banks have generally been permitted to continue operating, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruptions to the Company’s business and could cause material disruptions to its business and operations in the future. Impacts to the business have included increases in costs and reductions in operating effectiveness due to additional health and safety precautions implemented at the Company’s branches and the transition of a portion of its workforce to home locations, decreases in customer traffic in its branches, and increases in requests for and the making of loan modifications. The Company anticipates that additional future impacts to its business will include increases in the Company’s customers’ inability to make scheduled loan payments and increases in requests for forbearance. Further, loan payment deferment programs implemented by the Company or under government stimulus programs, like the PPP, may mask credit deterioration in its loan portfolio by making less applicable standard measures of identifying developing financial weakness in a client or portfolio, such as past due monitoring and non-accrual assessments. To the extent that commercial and social restrictions remain in place or increase, the Company’s expenses, delinquencies, charge-offs, foreclosures, and credit losses may materially increase, and the Company could experience reductions in fee income. In addition, any declines in credit quality could significantly affect the adequacy of the Company’s ACL, which would lead to increases in the provision for credit losses and related declines in its net income.

Unfavorable economic conditions and increasing unemployment figures may also make it more difficult for the Company to maintain deposit levels and loan origination volume and to obtain additional financing. Furthermore, such conditions have and may continue to cause the value of the Company’s investment portfolio and of collateral associated with its existing loans to decline. In addition, in March 2020, the Federal Reserve lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to a range from 0 to 0.25 percent in part as a result of the pandemic. A prolonged period of very low interest rates could reduce the Company’s net interest income and have a material adverse impact on its cash flows.

While the Company has taken and is continuing to take precautions to protect the safety and well-being of its employees and customers, no assurance can be given that the steps being taken will be deemed to be adequate or appropriate, nor can the

Company predict the level of disruption which will occur to its employee's ability to provide customer support and service. The continued or renewed spread of COVID-19 could negatively impact the availability of key personnel necessary to conduct the Company’s business, the business and operations of its third-party service providers who perform critical services for the business, or the businesses of many of the Company’s customers and borrowers. If COVID-19 is not successfully contained, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

Among the factors outside the Company’s control that are likely to affect the impact the COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately have on its business are, without limitation:

●

the pandemic’s duration, nature, and severity;

●

the direct and indirect results of the pandemic, such as recessionary economic trends, including with respect to employment, wages and benefits, commercial activity, the residential housing market, consumer spending and real estate and investment securities market values;

●

political, legal, and regulatory actions and policies in response to the pandemic, including the effects of restrictions on commerce and banking, such as current temporary or required continuing moratoria and other suspensions of collections, foreclosures, and related obligations;

●

the timing, magnitude, and effect of public spending, directly or through subsidies, its direct and indirect effects on commercial activity and incentives of employers and individuals to resume or increase employment, wages and benefits, and commercial activity;

●

effects on the Company’s liquidity position due to changes in customers’ deposit and loan activity in response to the pandemic and its economic effects;

●

the timing and availability of direct and indirect governmental support for various financial assets, including mortgage loans;

●

the long-term effect of the economic downturn on the Company’s intangible assets such as its deferred tax asset and goodwill;

●

potential longer-term effects of increased government spending on the interest rate environment and borrowing costs for non-governmental parties;

●

the ability of the Company’s employees to work effectively during the course of the pandemic;

●

the ability of the Company’s third-party vendors to maintain a high-quality and effective level of service;

●

the possibility of increased fraud, cybercrime, and similar incidents, due to vulnerabilities posed by the significant increase in Company employees and customers handling their banking interactions remotely from home, the quick roll-out of various government-sponsored lending programs, like the PPP, or otherwise;

●

required changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to reflect a rapidly changing work environment;

●

potential longer-term shifts toward mobile banking, telecommuting, and telecommerce;

●

short- and long-term health impacts;

●

unforeseen effects of the pandemic; and

●

geographic variation in the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, including in states in which the Company operates physically such as Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to severe volatility in the financial markets and meaningfully lower stock prices for many companies, including the Company’s common stock. Depending on the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and perceptions regarding national and global recovery from the pandemic, the price of the Company’s common stock may continue to experience volatility and declines.

The Company is continuing to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and related risks, although the rapid development and fluidity of the situation precludes any specific prediction as to its ultimate impact on the Company. However, if the pandemic continues to spread or otherwise result in a continuation or worsening of the current economic and commercial environments, the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.
