Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of operations:

Capital Bancorp, Inc. is a Maryland corporation and the bank holding company (the “Company”) for Capital Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”). The Company's primary operations are conducted by the Bank, which operates branches in Rockville, and Columbia, Maryland, Reston, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. The Bank is principally engaged in the business of investing in commercial, real estate, and credit card loans and attracting deposits. The Company originates residential mortgages for sale in the secondary market through Capital Bank Home Loans (“CBHL”), the Bank’s residential mortgage banking arm, and issues credit cards through OpenSky®, a secured, digitally-driven nationwide credit card platform.

The Company formed Church Street Capital, LLC (“Church Street Capital”) in 2014 to provide short-term secured real estate financing to Washington, D.C. area investors and developers that may not meet all Bank credit criteria. At June 30, 2021, Church Street Capital had loans totaling $4.6 million.

In addition, the Company owns all of the stock of Capital Bancorp (MD) Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”). The Trust is a special purpose non-consolidated entity organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities.

Basis of presentation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the activity of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and Church Street Capital. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company reports its activities as four business segments. In determining the appropriateness of segment definition, the Company considers components of the business about which financial information is available and regularly evaluated relative to resource allocation and performance assessment. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and conform to general practices within the banking industry.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has been, and may continue to be, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In recent months, COVID-19 vaccination rates have been increasing and restrictive measures have been eased in certain areas. However, uncertainty remains about the duration of the pandemic and the timing and strength of the global economy’s recovery. To address the economic impact of the pandemic in the U.S., multiple stimulus packages have been enacted to provide economic relief to individuals and businesses, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which established the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (“SBA-PPP”) and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 which was enacted in March 2021.

As the pandemic evolves, the Company continues to evaluate processes in place to execute our business continuity plan and promote the health and safety of our employees.

Although the macroeconomic and public health outlooks improved in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2021, the future direct and indirect impact of the pandemic on the Company’s businesses, results of operations and financial condition remains uncertain. Should current economic conditions deteriorate or if the pandemic worsens, including as the result of the spread of the more easily

communicable variants of COVID-19, the macroeconomic environment could have an adverse effect on our businesses, results of operations and financial condition.

Significant Accounting Policies:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The primary reference point for the estimates is historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable regarding the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from financial institutions, interest bearing deposits with financial institutions and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Investment securities

Investment securities are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in stockholders’ equity on an after-tax basis. Premiums and discounts on investment securities are amortized or accreted using the interest method. Changes in the fair value of debt securities available for sale are included in stockholders’ equity as unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effect. Unrealized losses are periodically reviewed to determine whether the loss represents an other than temporary impairment. Any unrealized losses judged to be other than a temporary impairment are charged to income.

Marketable Equity Securities

Marketable equity securities are carried at fair value with realized gains and losses included in earnings. Premiums and discounts on investment securities are amortized or accreted using the interest method. Changes in the fair value of equity securities are also included in earnings as gain or loss on marketable equity securities.

Loans held for sale

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale are recorded at fair value, determined individually, as of the balance sheet date. Fair value is determined based on outstanding investor commitments, or in the absence of such commitments, based on current investor yield requirements. Gains and losses on loan sales are determined by the specific-identification method. The Company’s current practice is to sell residential mortgage loans on a servicing released basis, and, therefore, it has no servicing rights recorded for the value of such servicing. Interest on loans held for sale is credited to income based on the principal amounts outstanding.

Upon sale and delivery, loans are legally isolated from the Company and the Company has no ability to restrict or constrain the ability of third‑party investors to pledge or exchange the mortgage loans. The Company does not have the entitlement or ability to repurchase the mortgage loans or unilaterally cause third‑party investors to put the mortgage loans back to the Company. Unrealized and realized gains on loan sales are determined using the specific-identification method and are recognized through mortgage

banking activity in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company elected to measure loans held for sale at fair value to better align reported results with the underlying economic changes in value of the loans on the Company’s balance sheet.

Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program

The Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (“SBA-PPP”) is one of the centerpieces of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was passed on March 27, 2020 in response to the outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and was supplemented with subsequent legislation. Overseen by the United States (“U.S.”) Treasury Department, the SBA-PPP offered cash-flow assistance to nonprofit and small business employers through guaranteed loans. Borrowers are eligible for forgiveness of principal and accrued interest on SBA-PPP loans to the extent that the proceeds are used to cover eligible payroll costs, interest costs, rent, and utility costs over a period between eight and 24-weeks after the loan is made as long as the borrower retains its employees and their compensation levels. The CARES Act authorized the SBA to fully guarantee these loans.

On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (“CAA”) was signed into law. The CAA provides several amendments to the SBA-PPP, including additional funding for the first and second draws of PPP loans up to March 13, 2021. On March 30, 2021, the PPP Extension Act of 2021 was signed into law, which extended the program to May 31, 2021.

Due to the unique nature of these provisions, SBA-PPP loans have been disclosed as a separate balance sheet item. Origination fees received by the SBA are capitalized into the carrying amount of the loans. The deferred fee income, net of origination costs, is recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. SBA-PPP loans receivable as of June 30, 2021 totaled $208.1 million with $5.3 million of net unearned fees and generated interest income of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Loans and the Allowance for Loan Losses

Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, adjusted for deferred origination fees and costs, discounts on loans acquired, and the allowance for loan losses. Interest is accrued based on the loan principal balances and stated interest rates. Origination fees and costs are recognized as an adjustment to the related loan yield using approximate interest methods. The Company discontinues the accrual of interest when any portion of the principal and/or interest is 90 days past due, or when it is probable that not all principal and interest payments will be collected, and collateral is insufficient to discharge the debt in full. Generally, interest payments on nonaccrual loans are recorded as a reduction of the principal balance.

Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information, management believes the Company will not collect all principal and interest payments according to contractual terms. Generally, loans are reviewed for impairment when the risk grade for a loan is downgraded to a classified asset category. The loans are evaluated for appropriate classification, accrual, impairment, and troubled debt restructure (“TDR”) status. If collection of principal is evaluated as doubtful, all payments are applied to principal. A modification of a loan is considered a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession; however, the CARES Act provides financial institutions optional temporary relief from TDR and impairment accounting for certain loan modifications related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under Section 4013 of the CARES Act, banks may suspend (1) the requirement

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

under GAAP for certain modifications that would otherwise be categorized as a TDR and (2) any determination that such loan modifications would be considered a TDR, including the related impairment for accounting purposes. To be eligible, each loan modification must be (1) related to the COVID-19 event; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (B) December 31, 2020. The December 31, 2020 deadline was subsequently extended to January 1, 2022, by the CAA.

All other short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not TDRs. This includes short-term modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented.

Loans are generally charged-off in part or in full when management determines the loan to be uncollectible. Factors for charge-off that may be considered include: repayments deemed to be projected beyond reasonable time frames, client bankruptcy and lack of assets, and/or collateral deficiencies.

The allowance for loan losses is estimated to adequately provide for probable future losses on existing loans. The allowance consists of specific and general components. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the collateral value, if the loan is collateral dependent, or the discounted cash flows of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of nonclassified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted with qualitative factors such as: trends in volume and terms of loans; levels of, and trends in, delinquencies and non-accruals; effects of any changes in lending policies, experience, ability and depth of management; national and local economic trends and conditions (with a specific evaluation of COVID-19 impact); commitments and concentrations of credit; changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review system; and the volume of loans with identified incomplete financial documentation. Actual loan performance may differ materially from those estimates. A loss is recognized as a charge to the allowance when management believes that collection of the loan is unlikely. Collections of loans previously charged off are added to the allowance at the time of recovery.

The Company determines the allowance for loan losses based on the accumulation of various components that are calculated independently in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 450 for pools of loans, and ASC 310 for TDRs and for individually evaluated loans. The process for determining an appropriate allowance for loan losses is based on a comprehensive and consistently applied analysis of the loan portfolio. The analysis considers all significant factors that affect the collectibility of the portfolio and supports the credit losses estimated by this process. It is important to recognize that the related process, methodology, and underlying assumptions require a substantial degree of judgment. Additional disclosure on the allowance for loan losses, qualitative factors, and the potential COVID-19 impact can be found in Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors and Note 5 - Portfolio Loans Receivable.

The allowance for loan losses for SBA-PPP loans were separately evaluated given the explicit government guarantee. This analysis, which incorporated historical experience with similar SBA guarantees and underwriting, concluded the likelihood of loss was remote and therefore no allowance for loan losses was assigned to these loans.

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

Premises and equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization over two to seven years. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related property. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the improvements, approximately ten years, or the term of the lease, whichever is less. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor replacements are charged to noninterest expenses as incurred.

Leases

The Company accounts for leases according to ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and applies a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record, for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months, an asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a liability to make lease payments. The Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitting entities to not reassess: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) initial direct costs for any existing leases. Additionally, as provided by ASU 2016-02, the Company elected not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases, defined as leases with a term of 12 months or less, and to recognize the lease payments in net income on short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into commitments to fund residential mortgage loans (interest rate locks) with the intention of selling them in the secondary market. The Company also enters into forward sales agreements for certain funded loans and loan commitments. The Company records unfunded commitments intended for loans held for sale and forward sales agreements at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of mortgage banking revenue. Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair value. For pipeline loans which are not pre-sold to an investor, the Company endeavors to manage the interest rate risk on rate lock commitments by entering into forward sale contracts, whereby the Company obtains the right to deliver securities to investors in the future at a specified price. Such contracts are accounted for as derivatives and are recorded at fair value as derivative assets or liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in mortgage banking revenue.

The Company accounts for derivative instruments and hedging activities according to guidelines established in ASC 815-10, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are effective as hedges, are recorded in other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes. Any hedge ineffectiveness would be recognized in the income statement line item pertaining to the hedged item.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The degree of management judgment involved in determining the fair value of a financial instrument is dependent upon the availability of quoted market prices or observable market inputs. For financial instruments that are traded actively and have quoted market prices or observable market inputs, there is minimal subjectivity involved in measuring fair value.


			12


Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

However, when quoted market prices or observable market inputs are not fully available, significant management judgment may be necessary to estimate fair value. In developing our fair value estimates, we endeavor to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The fair value hierarchy defines Level 1 valuations as those based on quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 valuations include inputs based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 valuations are based on at least one significant assumption not observable in the market, or significant management judgment or estimation, some of which may be internally developed.

Financial assets that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include investment securities available for sale, loans held for sale, and derivative financial instruments. Financial liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are comprised of derivative financial instruments. Additional information is included in Note 8 - Fair Value.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is deemed more likely than not that the benefits of such deferred income taxes will be realized.

Earnings per share:

Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock using the treasury stock method. At June 30, 2020, there were 512,142 stock options excluded from the calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive, whereas at June 30, 2021 there were no such options.

Comprehensive income:

The Company reports as comprehensive income all changes in stockholders' equity during the year from sources other than stockholders. Other comprehensive income refers to all components (income, expenses, gains, and losses) of comprehensive income that are excluded from net income.

The Company's only component of other comprehensive income is unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale, net of income taxes. Information concerning the Company's accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is as follows:


(in thousands)	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Unrealized gains on securities available for sale	$	220	$	2,337
Deferred tax expense	(72)		(620)






Total accumulated comprehensive income	$	148	$	1,717

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

Recently issued accounting pronouncements:

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance to change the accounting for credit losses and modify the impairment model for certain debt securities. The FASB subsequently revised ASU 2019-10, which delayed implementation and the new standard is now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including the interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company expects the provisions of this standard to impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements, in particular, the level of the reserve for credit losses. The Company is continuing to evaluate the extent of the potential impact and expects that portfolio composition and economic conditions at the time of adoption will be a factor.

In November 2019, the FASB issued guidance to defer the effective dates for private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and certain smaller reporting companies to apply standards on current expected loan losses (“CECL”). The new effective dates will be fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. In addition, the FASB issued guidance that addresses issues raised by stakeholders during the implementation of ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-loan losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Loan Losses on Financial Instruments.” The amendments affect a variety of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. For entities that have not yet adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period as long as an entity has adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13. While the Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its financial statements, the Company is continuing to evaluate the extent of the potential impact and expects that portfolio composition and economic conditions at the time of adoption will be a factor.

The Company will apply the ASU through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the year of adoption. While early adoption has been permitted since first quarter 2019, the Company does not expect to early adopt. In addition to the allowance for loan losses, the Company will also record an allowance for credit losses on debt securities instead of applying the impairment model currently utilized. The amount of the adjustments will be impacted by each portfolio’s composition and credit quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.

In April 2019, the FASB issued codification improvements to ASU Topic 326 - Financial Instruments - Credit Loss, Topic 815 - Derivatives and Hedging, and Subtopic 825-10 - Financial Instruments. This codification provides technical corrections and clarifies issues related to fair value hedges. The Company early adopted this guidance upon issuance, and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance 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. The Company adopted the guidance during the first quarter of 2021 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, ‘‘Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This new ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. Entities can elect not to apply


			14

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (continued)

certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. Entities that make such elections would not have to remeasure contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. This amended guidance and the ability to elect its temporary optional expedients and exceptions are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 Topic 848 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“agencies”), issued an interagency statement on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by COVID-19. The interagency statement was effective immediately and impacted accounting for loan modifications. Under ASC 310-40, “Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,” a restructuring of debt constitutes a TDR if the creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The agencies confirmed with the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. Such modifications include short-term (e.g., six months) modifications that include payment deferrals of (i) principal and interest, (ii) interest only and (iii) principal only, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are deemed insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has offered payment deferrals for commercial and consumer customers for up to six months. The loan modifications offered to borrowers provided the borrower with payment relief in the form of reduced or deferred payments for up to 90 days (six months in selected instances) during which time interest is continuing to accrue. It is not expected that this interagency guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements; however, this impact cannot be quantified at this time.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassifications:

Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts reported in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no material effect on net income or total stockholders' equity.

Subsequent Events:

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events are events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date. Management has reviewed events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and no subsequent events occurred requiring accrual or disclosure.

Note 2 - Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits and federal funds sold. The Bank is required by regulations to maintain an average cash reserve balance based on a percentage of deposits. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the requirements were satisfied by amounts on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank and cash on hand.

At June 30, 2021, there were no securities and at December 31, 2020 there was one security that had been in an unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months. Management believes that the unrealized loss at June 30, 2021 resulted from changes in the interest rates and current market conditions and not as a result of credit deterioration. Management has the ability and the intent to hold these investment securities until maturity or until they recover in value.

A summary of pledged securities at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is shown below:

Note 4 - SBA-PPP Loans Receivable

Pursuant to the CARES Act, the SBA-PPP provides forgivable loans to small businesses to enable them to maintain payroll, hire back employees who have been laid off, and cover applicable overhead. SBA-PPP loans have an interest rate of 1%, have two or five year terms, and carry a 100% guarantee of the SBA.

The allowance for loan losses for SBA-PPP loans was separately evaluated given the explicit government guarantee. This analysis, which incorporated historical experience with similar SBA guarantees and underwriting, concluded that the likelihood of loss was remote and therefore no allowance for loan losses was assigned to these loans.

SBA-PPP gross loans receivable, totaled $208.1 million at June 30, 2021, and $204.9 million at December 31, 2020, and were all rated as pass credits and were not past due, nonaccrual, TDR, or otherwise impaired. Unearned net fees associated with the SBA-PPP loans amounted to $5.3 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $3.9 million at December 31, 2020. There were no outstanding commitments to extend additional SBA-PPP loans at June 30, 2021.

Allowance for loan losses	(24,079)		(23,434)
Portfolio loans receivable, net	$	1,368,392	$	1,292,068

The Company makes loans to customers located primarily in the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas. Although the loan portfolio is diversified, its performance is influenced by the regional economy. The Company’s loan categories, excluding SBA-PPP loans, previously discussed in Note 4, are described below.

Residential Real Estate Loans. One-to-four family mortgage loans are primarily secured by owner-occupied primary residences and, to a lesser extent, investor owned residences. Residential loans are originated through the commercial sales teams and Capital Bank Home Loans division. Residential loans also include home equity lines of credit. Owner-occupied residential real estate loans usually have fixed rates for five or seven years and adjust on an annual basis after the initial term based on a typical maturity of 30 years. Investor residential real estate loans are generally based on 25-year terms with a balloon payment due after five years. Generally, the required minimum debt service coverage ratio is 115%.

Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 5 - Portfolio Loans Receivable (continued)

Commercial Real Estate Loans. Commercial real estate loans are originated on owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied properties. These loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. Commercial loans that are secured by owner-occupied commercial real estate and primarily collateralized by operating cash flows are also included in this category of loans. As of June 30, 2021, there were approximately $257.4 million of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans, representing approximately 54.6% of the commercial real estate portfolio. Commercial real estate loan terms are generally extended for 10 years or less and amortize generally over 25 years or less. The interest rates on commercial real estate loans generally have initial fixed rate terms that adjust typically at five years. Origination fees are routinely charged for services. Personal guarantees from the principal owners of the business are generally required, supported by a review of the principal owners’ personal financial statements and global debt service obligations. The properties securing the portfolio are somewhat diverse in terms and type. This diversity may help reduce the exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single industry.

Construction Loans. Construction loans are offered within the Company’s Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan operating areas to builders primarily for the construction of single-family homes and condominium and townhouse conversions or renovations and, to a lesser extent, to individuals. Construction loans typically have terms of 12 to 18 months. The Company frequently transitions the end purchaser to permanent financing or re-underwriting and sale into the secondary market through Capital Bank Home Loans. According to underwriting standards, the ratio of loan principal to collateral value, as established by an independent appraisal, cannot exceed 75% for investor-owned and 80% for owner-occupied properties. Exceptions are sometimes made. Semi-annual stress testing of the construction loan portfolio is conducted, and underlying real estate conditions are monitored as well as trends of sales outcomes versus underwriting valuations as part of ongoing risk management efforts. The borrowers’ progress in construction buildout is monitored to enforce the original underwriting guidelines for construction milestones and completion timelines.

Commercial and Industrial. In addition to other loan products, general commercial loans, including commercial lines of credit, working capital loans, term loans, equipment financing, letters of credit and other loan products are offered, primarily in target markets, and underwritten based on each borrower’s ability to service debt from income. These loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily, on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. Most commercial business loans are secured by a lien on general business assets including, among other things, available real estate, accounts receivable, promissory notes, inventory and equipment. Personal guaranties from the borrower or other principal are generally obtained.

Credit Cards. Our OpenSky® credit card division provides credit cards on a nationwide basis to under-banked populations and those looking to rebuild their credit scores through a fully digital and mobile platform. Most of the lines of credit are secured by a noninterest bearing demand account at the Bank in an amount equal to the full credit limit of the credit card. In addition, using a proprietary scoring model, which considers credit score and repayment history (typically a minimum of six months of on-time repayments, but ultimately determined on a case-by-case basis), the Bank offers certain existing customers an unsecured line in excess of their secured line of credit. Approximately $115.9 million and $98.5 million of the credit card balances were secured by savings deposits held by the Company as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Other Consumer Loans. To a limited extent and typically as an accommodation to existing customers, personal consumer loans, such as, for example, term loans, car loans or boat loans are offered.

Note 5 - Portfolio Loans Receivable (continued)

Loans acquired through acquisitions are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. In estimating the fair value of loans acquired, certain factors were considered, including the remaining lives of the acquired loans, payment history, estimated prepayments, estimated loss ratios, estimated value of the underlying collateral, and the net present value of cash flows expected. Discounts on loans that were not considered impaired at acquisition were recorded as an accretable discount, which will be recognized in interest income over the terms of the related loans. For loans considered to be impaired at acquisition, the difference between the contractually required payments and expected cash flows are recorded as a non-accretable discount. The remaining non-accretable discounts on loans acquired was $285 thousand as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Loans with non-accretable discounts had carrying values of $825 thousand and $836 thousand as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Accretable discounts on loans acquired is summarized as follows:

Impaired loans include loans acquired on which management has recorded a nonaccretable discount.

Credit quality indicators

As part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to the risk grade of loans, the level of classified loans, net charge-offs, nonperforming loans, and the general economic conditions in the Company’s market.

The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. A description of the general characteristics of loans characterized as classified is as follows:

Special Mention

A special mention loan has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Borrowers may exhibit poor liquidity and leverage positions resulting from generally negative cash flow or negative trends in earnings. Access to alternative financing may be limited to finance companies for business borrowers and may be unavailable for commercial real estate borrowers.

Substandard

A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current financial condition and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Borrowers may exhibit recent or unexpected unprofitable operations, an inadequate debt service coverage ratio, or marginal liquidity and capitalization. These loans require more intense supervision by Company management.


			25


Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 5 - Portfolio Loans Receivable (continued)

Doubtful

A doubtful loan has all the weaknesses inherent as a substandard loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

The following table presents the balances of classified loans based on the risk grade. Classified loans include Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful loans:

(1) Category includes loans graded exceptional, very good, good, satisfactory and pass/watch, in addition to credit cards and consumer credits that are not graded.

Impaired loans also include certain loans that have been modified in TDRs where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after confirmation of the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

Lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition of the contract. Lines of credit generally have variable interest rates. Such lines do not represent future cash requirements because it is unlikely that all customers will, at any given time, draw upon their lines in

full. Loan commitments generally have variable interest rates, fixed expiration dates, and may require payment of a fee.

The Company's maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer is the contractual amount of the credit commitment. Loan commitments and lines of credit are generally made on the same terms, including collateral, as outstanding loans. Management is not aware of any accounting loss to be incurred by funding these loan commitments. The Company maintains an estimated reserve for off balance sheet items such as unfunded lines of credit, which is reflected in other liabilities, with changes being charged to or released from operating expense. Activity for this account is as follows for the periods presented:

The Company makes representations and warranties that loans sold to investors meet their program's guidelines and that the information provided by the borrowers is accurate and complete. In the event of a default on a loan sold, the investor may have the right to make a claim for losses due to document deficiencies, program compliance, early payment default, and fraud or borrower misrepresentations.

Note 6 - Derivative Financial Instruments

As part of its mortgage banking activities, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. The Company then either locks the loan and rate in with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs (Best Efforts) or commits to deliver the locked loan to an investor in a binding (Mandatory) delivery program. Certain loans under rate lock commitments are covered under forward sales contracts. Forward sales contracts are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in mortgage banking revenue. Interest rate lock commitments and commitments to deliver loans to investors are considered derivatives. The market value of interest rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because they are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Company determines the fair value of rate lock commitments and delivery contracts by estimating the fair value of the underlying asset, which is impacted by current interest rates and takes into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close or will be funded.

The following table reports the commitment and fair value amounts on the outstanding derivatives:


Derivatives
(in thousands)	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Notional amount of open forward sales agreements	$	20,000	$	38,000

Notional amount of interest rate lock commitments	21,841		34,827



Fair value of interest rate lock commitments	59		148

Note 7 - Leases

The Company’s primary leasing activities relate to certain real estate leases entered into in support of the Company’s branch operations and back office operations. The Company leases five of its full service branches and five other locations for corporate/administration activities, operations, and loan production. All property leases under lease agreements have been been designated as operating leases. The Company does not have leases designated as finance leases.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are included in premises and equipment, and operating lease liabilities are included as other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The weighted average discount rate used was 2.26% at June 30, 2021 and 2.23% at December 31, 2020. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease pre-payments. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to account for separately as the non-lease component amounts are readily determinable under most leases.

Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 7 - Leases (continued)

As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s lease ROU assets and related lease liabilities were $3.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively, compared to December 31, 2020 balances of $3.1 million of ROU assets and $3.4 million of lease liabilities, and have remaining terms ranging from 1 - 6 years, including extension options that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not entered into any material leases that have not yet commenced. The Company’s lease information is summarized as follows:

Note 8 - Fair Value

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, recommend disclosures about fair value, and establish a hierarchy for determining fair value measurement. The hierarchy includes three levels and is based upon the valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation method are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation method include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation method are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Note 8 - Fair Value (continued)

Fair value measurements on a recurring basis

Investment securities available for sale - The fair values of the Company's investment securities available for sale are provided by an independent pricing service. The fair values of the Company's securities are determined based on quoted prices for similar securities under Level 2 inputs.

Marketable equity securities - The fair value of marketable equity securities is provided by an independent pricing service. The fair value is determined based on quoted prices for similar securities using Level 2 inputs.

Loans held for sale - The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using Level 2 inputs of quoted prices for a similar asset, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan.

Derivative financial instruments - Derivative instruments used to hedge residential mortgage loans held for sale and the related interest rate lock commitments include forward commitments to sell mortgage loans and are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The fair values of derivative financial instruments are based on derivative market data inputs as of the valuation date and the underlying value of mortgage loans for rate lock commitments.

The Company has categorized its financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 as follows:

Note 8 - Fair Value (continued)

Financial instruments recorded using FASB ASC 825-10

Under FASB ASC 825-10, the Company may elect to report most financial instruments and certain other items at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis with changes in fair value reported in net income. After the initial adoption, the election is made at the acquisition of an eligible financial asset, financial liability or firm commitment or when certain specified reconsideration events occur. The fair value election, with respect to an item, may not be revoked once an election is made.

The following table reflects the difference between the fair value carrying amount of loans held for sale, measured at fair value under FASB ASC 825-10, and the aggregate unpaid principal amount the Company is contractually entitled to receive at maturity:


Fair Value of Loans Held for Sale
(in thousands)	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Aggregate fair value	$	47,935	$	107,154
Contractual principal	45,188		99,362
Difference	$	2,747	$	7,792

The Company has elected to account for loans held for sale at fair value to eliminate the mismatch that would occur by recording changes in market value on derivative instruments used to hedge loans held for sale while carrying the loans at the lower of cost or market.

Fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis

Impaired loans - The Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan's collateral and discounted cash flow analysis. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair values consist of loan balances of $7.9 million and $10.0 million, with specific reserves of $236 thousand and $253 thousand, respectively.

Foreclosed real estate - The Company's foreclosed real estate is measured at fair value less cost to sell. Fair value was determined based on offers and/or appraisals. Cost to sell the real estate was based on standard market factors. The Company has categorized its foreclosed real estate as Level 3.

The Company has categorized its impaired loans and foreclosed real estate as follows:

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practical to estimate the value is based upon the characteristics of the instruments and relevant market information. Financial instruments include cash, evidence of ownership in an entity, or contracts that convey or impose on an entity the contractual right or obligation to either receive or deliver cash for another financial instrument.

The information used to determine fair value is highly subjective and judgmental in nature and, therefore, the results may not be precise. Subjective factors include, among other things, estimates of cash flows, risk characteristics, credit quality, and interest rates, all of which are subject to change. Since the fair value is estimated as of the balance sheet date, the amounts that will actually be realized or paid upon settlement or maturity on these various instruments could be significantly different.

The fair value of the Company’s loan portfolio includes a credit risk assumption in the determination of the fair value of its loans. This credit risk assumption is intended to approximate the fair value that a market participant would realize in a hypothetical orderly transaction. The Company’s loan portfolio is initially fair valued using a segmented approach. The Company divides its loan portfolio into the following categories: variable rate loans, impaired loans, and all other loans. The results are then adjusted to account for credit risk as described above. However, under the new guidance, the Company believes a further credit risk discount must be applied through the use of a discounted cash flow model to compensate for illiquidity risk, based on certain assumptions included within the discounted cash flow model, primarily the use of discount rates that better capture inherent credit risk over the lifetime of a loan. This consideration of enhanced credit risk provides an estimated exit price for the Company’s loan portfolio.

For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair values approximate carrying values. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow models or based on the fair value of the underlying collateral.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and investments in restricted stocks is the carrying amount. Restricted stock includes equity of the Federal Reserve and other banker’s banks.

The fair value of noninterest bearing deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase is the carrying amount.

The fair value of checking, savings, and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair value of fixed maturity term accounts and individual retirement accounts is estimated using rates currently offered for accounts of similar remaining maturities.


			33


Capital Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 8 - Fair Value (continued)

The fair value of certificates of deposit in other financial institutions is estimated based on interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the value of contractual cash flows using current market rates for borrowings with similar terms and remaining maturities.

The fair value of outstanding loan commitments, unused lines of credit, and letters of credit are not included in the table since the carrying value generally approximates fair value. These instruments generate fees that approximate those currently charged to originate similar commitments.

The table below presents the carrying amount, fair value, and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the related notes and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and oral statements made from time-to-time by our representatives contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on such statements because they are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties relating to our operations and the business environment in which we operate, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy, expectations, beliefs, projections, anticipated events or trends, growth prospects, financial performance, and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. These statements often include words such as “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “could,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” or “would,” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words and phrases.

In addition to the foregoing, the COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees and third party service providers. The ultimate extent of the impact on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Continued deterioration in general business and economic conditions, or turbulence in domestic or global financial markets could adversely affect our revenues and the values of our assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding and lead to a tightening of credit. Changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies or practices as a result of, or in response to COVID-19, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways, including the potential adverse impact of loan modifications and payment deferrals implemented consistent with recent regulatory guidance. The following factors, among others, could cause our financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in such forward-looking statements:

General Economic Conditions

•economic conditions (including interest rate environment, government economic and monetary policies, the strength of global financial markets and inflation and deflation) that impact the financial services industry as a whole and/or our business;

•interest rate risk associated with our business, including sensitivity of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to interest rates, and the impact to our earnings from changes in interest rates;

•the concentration of our business in the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas and the effect of changes in the economic, political and environmental conditions on these markets;

General Business Operations

•our ability to prudently manage our growth and execute our strategy;

•our plans to grow our commercial real estate and commercial business loan portfolios which may carry material risks of non-payment or other unfavorable consequences;


			37

•strategic acquisitions we may undertake to achieve our goals;

•our dependence on our information technology and telecommunications systems and the potential for any systems failures or interruptions;

•our dependence upon outside third parties for the processing and handling of our records and data;

•our ability to adapt to technological change;

•our engagement in derivative transactions;

•volatility and direction of market interest rates;

•the possible impact of uncertainty about the future of LIBOR on our net interest income;

•due to the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate to near 0%, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income;

•the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and our ability to remediate any future material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting;

•our dependence on our management team and board of directors and changes in management and board composition;

•our involvement from time to time in legal proceedings, examinations and remedial actions by regulators;

•risks associated with our OpenSky credit card division, including compliance with applicable consumer finance and fraud prevention regulations;

•we may be required to repurchase loans originated for sale by our mortgage banking division;

•results of examinations of us by our regulators, including the possibility that our regulators may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for loan losses or to write-down assets;

•changes in the laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies relating to financial institution, accounting, tax, trade, monetary and fiscal matters;

•increased competition in the financial services industry, particularly from regional and national institutions;

•the financial soundness of other financial institutions;

•Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs;

•further government intervention in the U.S. financial system;

•natural disasters and adverse weather, acts of terrorism, an outbreak of hostilities or other international or domestic calamities, and other matters beyond our control; and

•potential exposure to fraud, negligence, computer theft and cyber-crime.

As you read and consider forward-looking statements, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us or in our control. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, beliefs, and expectations, if a change occurs or our beliefs, assumptions, or expectations were incorrect, our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. You should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include those described under the heading “Risk Factors” under Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 in addition to and other reports as filed with the SEC.

You should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by us speaks only as of the date on which we make it. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. We have no duty to, and do not intend to, and disclaim any obligation to, update or revise any industry information or forward-looking statements after the date on which they are made.

Overview

Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 1998 in Maryland to act as the bank holding company for Capital Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) which received its charter in 1999 and began operations in 1999. The Bank is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland and serves the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas through five commercial bank branches, five mortgage offices, two loan production offices, a limited service branch and three corporate and operations facilities located in key markets throughout our operating area. We serve businesses, not-for-profit associations and entrepreneurs throughout the region by partnering with them to design tailored financial solutions supported by customized technology and “client first” advice.

The Company reports its activities in four business segments: commercial banking; mortgage lending; credit cards; and corporate activities. In determining the appropriateness of segment definition, the Company considers components of the business about which financial information is available and regularly evaluated relative to resource allocation and performance assessment. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and conform to general practices within the banking industry.

Our Commercial Banking division accounts for the majority of the Bank’s total assets. Our commercial bankers endeavor to provide quality service, customized solutions and tailored advice to commercial clients in our operating markets.

Our Capital Bank Home Loan (“CBHL”) division originates conventional and government-guaranteed residential mortgage loans on a nationwide basis primarily for sale into the secondary market and in certain, limited circumstances for the Bank’s loan portfolio.

Our OpenSky® division provides secured credit cards on a nationwide basis to under-banked populations and those looking to rebuild their credit scores. OpenSky® cards operate on a digital and mobile enabled platform with almost all marketing and application procedures conducted through website and mobile applications. A deposit equal to the full credit limit of the card is made into a noninterest-bearing demand account with the Bank when the account is opened and the deposit is required to be maintained throughout the life of the card. Using our proprietary scoring model, which considers credit score and repayment history (typically a minimum of six months of on-time repayments, but ultimately determined on a case-by-case basis), OpenSky® also offers certain existing customers an unsecured line in excess of their secured line of credit.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The outbreak of COVID-19, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, has led to adverse impacts on economic conditions and created uncertainty in financial markets. In early March 2020, the Company began preparing for potential disruptions and government limitations on activity in the markets in which we serve. Our team activated our Business Continuity Program and was able to quickly execute on multiple initiatives to adjust our operations to protect the health and safety of our employees and clients. Currently, a significant portion of our workforce is working remotely without materially impacting our productivity while continuing to provide a high level of customer service. Since the beginning of the crisis, we have been in close contact with our clients, assessing the level of impact on their businesses, and providing relief programs according to each client’s specific situation and qualifications. Currently, the Company has four branches open and one previous location has been permanently closed. We have enhanced awareness of digital banking offerings and limited the number of customers in the branch and have taken steps to comply with various government directives regarding “social distancing,” as well as enhanced cleaning and disinfecting of surface areas to protect our clients and employees.

Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program

We were able to quickly establish our process for participating in the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (“SBA-PPP”) that enabled our clients to utilize this valuable resource. SBA-PPP loans are designed to provide assistance for small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic to help meet the costs associated with payroll, mortgage interest, rent and utilities. These loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and, under certain circumstances, forgiveness of the loan by the SBA is granted to the borrower. In general, forgiveness is predicated on the small business maintaining or quickly rehiring their employees and maintaining salary levels for their employees. SBA-PPP loans do not require any collateral or personal guarantees. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding loan balance was approximately $208.1 million for SBA-PPP loans that were originated in the first and second rounds of the program. These efforts have allowed us to further strengthen and deepen our client relationships, while positively impacting thousands of individuals.

Short-term Modifications for Borrowers

In keeping with regulatory guidance to work with borrowers during this unprecedented situation and as outlined in Section 4013 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), the Company is providing loan modifications where appropriate, including potential interest only payments or payment deferrals for clients that are adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Section 4013 of the CARES Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, also addressed COVID-19 related modifications and specified that such modifications made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of (i) 60 days after the date of termination of the National Emergency or (ii) January 1, 2022, on loans that were current as of December 31, 2019 are not TDRs. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in April 2020, these short-term modifications made to a borrower affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental shutdown orders, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers and extensions of repayment terms, do not need to be identified as TDRs if the loans were current at the time a modification plan was implemented. Commercial and consumer loans still on COVID-19 related deferrals were $30.5 million at December 31, 2020 and have decreased to $11.9 million or approximately 0.85% of total portfolio loans receivable as of June 30, 2021.


			40

Liquidity

We are monitoring our liquidity position on an ongoing basis as the circumstances surrounding the pandemic continue to evolve. The Company has several available sources of on and off-balance sheet liquidity. Currently, the Company has not needed to tap into these available liquidity sources . The potential for increased reliance on available liquidity sources may be required based on the effects of the pandemic and their impact on the level of deposits and other factors. Additional discussion on our liquidity as of the report date is reflected in the “Liquidity” section of management’s discussion and analysis.

Capital

As of June 30, 2021, the Bank exceeded all the capital requirements to which it was subject and based on the most recent notification from its primary federal regulator is considered to be well-capitalized. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes would change the Bank’s classification. We are closely monitoring our capital position and are taking appropriate steps to ensure our level of capital remains strong.

Income tax expense	3,357		1,759		90.8	%
Net income	$	9,648	$	4,761	102.6	%

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased 102.6% to $9.6 million from $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to increases in interest income, credit card fees and mortgage banking revenue (included in noninterest income), and a decrease in interest expense. In addition, there was a decrease in the loan loss provision of $2.5 million in the current quarter, as a result of the improving economic environment from the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic. Noninterest expense was $27.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $7.3 million, or 36.7%. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $4.5 million, or 78.6%, in data processing expenses, resulting from the increase in OpenSky® accounts as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, increases in credit expenses, outside service providers, and FDIC insurance account for an increase of $1.0 million, or 42.8%, quarter over quarter in operating expenses.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $19 million, an increase of approximately $10.9 million, or 142.1%, from net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $7.7 million. The increase in earnings was attributable to higher levels of both net interest income and noninterest income. Improved net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest income resulting from higher levels of earning assets during the period and a decrease in interest expense. The increase in noninterest income was partially offset by higher noninterest expenses. In addition, a decline in the provision for loan losses of $4.4 million, reflects indications that the overall economic conditions continue to improve from the year earlier period. Noninterest income increased $10.8 million over the prior comparable period primarily due to increased mortgage banking revenue of $2.7 million and credit card fees of $8.7 million. Noninterest expense increased $16.3 million primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits of $1.4 million, or 8.8%, data processing of $9.6 million, or 98.6%, $1.3 million in professional services and $2.0 million, or 45.4% in other operating expenses. The increase in operating expenses includes credit expenses, outside service providers and FDIC insurance. Overall, the increases are attributed to significant growth in mortgage originations and secured credit cards during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Net Interest Income and Net Margin Analysis

We analyze our ability to generate income from interest earning assets and control the interest expenses of our liabilities, measured as net interest income, through our net interest margin and net interest spread. Net interest income is the difference between the interest and fees earned on interest earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest expense incurred in connection with interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings, which are used to fund those assets. Net interest margin is a ratio calculated as net interest income divided by average interest earning assets for the same period. Net interest spread is the difference between average interest rates earned on interest earning assets and average interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities.

Changes in market interest rates and the interest rates we earn on interest earning assets or pay on interest bearing liabilities, as well as in the volume and types of interest earning assets, interest bearing and noninterest bearing liabilities and stockholders’ equity, are usually the largest drivers of periodic changes in net interest income, net interest margin and net interest spread. Fluctuations in market interest rates are driven by many factors, including governmental monetary policies, inflation, deflation, macroeconomic developments, changes in unemployment, the money supply, political and international conditions and conditions in domestic and foreign financial markets. Periodic changes in the volume and types of loans in our loan portfolio are affected by, among other factors, economic and competitive conditions in the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas, as well as developments affecting the real estate, technology, government services, hospitality and tourism and financial services sectors within our target markets and throughout the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas. Our ability to respond to changes in these factors by using effective asset-liability

management techniques will affect the stability of our net interest income and net interest margin.

The following table shows the average outstanding balance of each principal category of our assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity, together with the average yields on our assets and the average costs of our liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are calculated by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of the corresponding assets or liabilities for the same period.

Net interest income increased by $8.9 million, or 47.8%, for the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 as average total interest earning assets increased from $1.6 billion to $2.0 billion. The increase in average interest earning assets was driven by an increase in average portfolio loan balances of $116.9 million, or 9.7%, from an average of $1.2 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 to $1.3 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Average interest earning assets increased by the SBA-PPP loans which had an average balance of $250.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $166.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in average outstanding loan balances on SBA-PPP and portfolio loans, in addition to the increase in the average yield on SBA-PPP and portfolio loans, led to a 25 basis point increase in the yield on interest earning assets, from 5.57% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to 5.82% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The overall increase in yield on interest earning assets is primarily attributed to improving yields in the credit card portfolio as customer behaviors continue to normalize from the effects of the pandemic.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $103.0 million, or 10.4%, from $986.8 million for the second quarter of 2020 to $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to growth of $111.9 million, or 11.9%, in the average balance of interest bearing deposits partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds of $8.9 million, or 19.9%. The average interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased 73 basis points to 0.65% for the second quarter of 2021 from 1.38%


			44

for the second quarter of 2020. The decreases in the interest rates primarily reflect market interest rate decreases in 2020 and 2021.

The net interest margin increased 75 basis point to 5.47% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, from 4.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Excluding credit cards and SBA-PPP loans, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.55% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, down 41 basis points from 3.96% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The year over year net interest margin decrease of 75 basis points was primarily due to the declining rate environment. The Company’s net interest spread was 5.17% and 4.19% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net interest income increased by $15.7 million, or 43.1%, from the six months ended June 30, 2020 as average total interest earning assets increased from $1.5 billion to $2.0 billion. The increase in average interest earning assets was primarily driven by an increase in average portfolio loan balances of $118.8 million, or 10.0%, from an average balance of $1.2 billion to $1.3 billion for the same period. Reflective of the decreasing interest rate environment, the annualized yield on interest earning assets decreased 20 basis points, from 5.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 5.72% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, average interest bearing liabilities increased by $129.0 million, or 13.4%, from $965.9 million to $1.1 billion period over period. The increase was due to growth of $139.5 million, or 15.1%, in the average balance of interest bearing deposits and a decrease in the average balance of borrowed funds of $10.5 million, or 23.3%. The annualized average interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased 82 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. The average annualized interest rate on interest bearing deposits decreased by 40 basis points in addition to a decrease in the average annualized interest rate on borrowed funds of 167 basis points. The decreases in the annualized average interest rates reflect interest rate decreases in 2020 and 2021.

The net interest margin increased 40 basis points to 5.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, from 4.92% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Excluding credit cards and SBA-PPP loans, the annualized net interest margin was 3.59% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, down 37 basis points from 3.96% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The year over year net interest margin decrease of 40 basis points resulted primarily from the decreasing rate environment. Net interest spread was 4.99% and 4.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is a charge to income in order to bring our allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. For a description of the factors taken into account by our management in determining the allowance for loan losses see “Financial Condition—Allowance for Loan Losses.”

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, credit metrics improved as the economy continued to recover from COVID-19. Primarily as a result of an improving economic environment, the provision for loan losses declined from $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $781 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The improvement was partially offset by a small number of charge offs resulting in a $781 thousand provision. Net charge-offs amounted to $252 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $134 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to increases in charge-offs of $169 thousand in the commercial and industrial loan portfolio and $140 thousand in the credit card portfolio.

As a result of the continued improving economic environment, the provision for loan losses was $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net charge-offs amounted to $639 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $330 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to increases in charge-offs of $169 thousand in commercial and industrial and $140 thousand in the credit card portfolio. Our allowance for loan losses as a percent of portfolio loans was 1.73% and 1.78% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.


			46

Noninterest Income

Our primary sources of recurring noninterest income are service charges on deposit accounts, certain credit card fees, such as interchange fees and statement fees, credit card fees and mortgage banking revenue. Noninterest income does not include (i) loan origination fees to the extent they exceed the direct loan origination costs, which are generally recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield using the interest method or (ii) annual, renewal and late fees related to our credit card portfolio, which are generally recognized over the twelve month life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield using the interest method.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest income:

NONINTEREST INCOME

Total noninterest income	$	13,471	$	11,101	21.3	%	$	27,421	$	16,636	64.8	%

Noninterest income increased $2.4 million, or 21.3%, to $13.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $11.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in credit card fees of $4.8 million, or 164.9%, which was partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking revenue of $2.1 million, or 28.0%, during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020. Mortgage banking revenue included commissions of $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, reflective of lower levels of mortgage originations. As a result of efforts to emphasize financing for new home purchases, as opposed to re-financings, volumes for purchase transactions as a percentage of loan originations increased to 50.6% for the second quarter of 2021, compared to 31.2% for the second quarter of 2020. Proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale amounted to $286.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $280.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

OpenSky® credit card issuances totaled 98 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 172 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Credit card fees increased $4.8 million to $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Noninterest income increased $10.8 million, or 64.8%, to $27.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $16.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to credit card fees which increased $8.7 million, or 177.5%, and mortgage banking revenue, which increased by $2.7 million, or 26.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. Purchase volume as a percentage of loan originations was 35.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 31.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale amounted to $691.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $463.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.


			47

OpenSky® credit card fees increase $8.7 million to $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to an increase in credit card accounts.

Noninterest Expense

Generally, noninterest expense is composed of all employee expenses and costs associated with operating our facilities, obtaining and retaining customer relationships and providing bank services. The largest component of noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits. Noninterest expense also includes operational expenses, such as occupancy and equipment expenses, professional fees, advertising expenses, loan processing expenses and other general and administrative expenses, including FDIC assessments, communications, travel, meals, training, supplies and postage.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest expense:

Total noninterest expense	$	27,205	$	19,905	36.7	%	$	52,972	$	36,704	44.3	%

Noninterest expense amounted to $27.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $7.3 million, or 36.7%, compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to increases in professional fees, data processing expenses, advertising, and other expenses. The increase of $4.5 million in data processing expense is primarily attributable to the increased credit card loan and deposit balances as well as core processing expenses due to a boost in customer activity during the period. Furthermore, operating expenses increased $1.0 million due to increases in credit expenses, outside service providers and FDIC insurance.

Noninterest expense amounted to $53.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $16.3 million, or 44.3%, compared to $36.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, professional services, data processing expenses, advertising, loan processing, and other expenses. The increase in salaries and benefits is reflective of the organic growth of the Company. The increase of $9.6 million in data processing expense reflects the higher volume of open credit cards and higher loan and deposit balances during the period in addition to increased mortgage loan processing volumes during the year. The increase of $2.0 million in other operating expenses is due to increases in credit expenses, outside service providers and FDIC insurance.

Income Tax Expense

The amount of income tax expense we incur is influenced by our pre-tax income and our nondeductible expenses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at current income tax rates in effect for the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled.


			48

As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Income tax expense was $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our effective tax rates were approximately 25.8% and 27.0% for the 2021 and 2020 periods, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, income tax expense was $6.5 million compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, with effective tax rates of 25.9% and 27.0% for 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2021, total assets increased $275.3 million from December 31, 2020 to approximately $2.2 billion. The increase was primarily attributable to the loan origination and funding of $76.3 million supplemented with strong organic deposit growth of $265.3 million during the quarter. Interest bearing deposits at other financial institutions, investment securities available for sale and other assets, including the investment in BOLI, also increased. These increases were partially offset by decreases in loans held for sale, premises and equipment, accrued interest receivable and other real estate owned. Noninterest bearing deposits increased to $828.3 million at June 30, 2021 from $608.6 million at December 31, 2020 and interest bearing deposits increased to $1.1 billion from $1.0 billion in the period. Stockholders’ equity increased $17.9 million, or 11.2%, to $177.2 million at June 30, 2021, primarily due to earnings.

Interest Bearing Deposits at Other Financial Institutions

As of June 30, 2021, interest bearing deposits at other financial institutions increased $160.7 million, or 127.4%, to $286.7 million from $126.1 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to increased deposits from customer deposit accounts.

Securities

We use our securities portfolio to provide a source of liquidity, provide an appropriate return on funds invested, manage interest rate risk, meet collateral requirements and meet regulatory capital requirements.

Management classifies investment securities as either held to maturity or available for sale based on our intentions and the Company’s ability to hold such securities until maturity. In determining such classifications, securities that management has the positive intent and the Company has the ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost. All other securities are designated as available for sale and carried at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in stockholders’ equity on an after-tax basis. For the years presented, all securities were classified as available for sale.

Our investment portfolio increased by 60.9%, or approximately $60.7 million, from $99.8 million at December 31, 2020, to $160.5 million at June 30, 2021 primarily as a result of purchases of $139.3 million, which were partially offset by $9.6 million of principal paydowns and a decrease in unrealized gain on securities of $2.1 million. To supplement interest income earned on our loan portfolio, we invest in mortgage-backed securities, U.S Government agency, U.S. Treasury bonds, and high quality municipal and corporate bonds.

Portfolio Loans Receivable

Our primary source of income is derived from interest earned on loans. Our portfolio loans consist of loans secured by real estate as well as commercial business loans, credit card loans, substantially all of which are secured by corresponding deposits at the Bank and, to a very limited extent, other consumer loans. Our loan customers primarily consist of small- to medium-sized businesses, professionals, real estate investors, small residential builders and individuals. Our owner-occupied commercial real estate loans, residential construction loans and commercial business and investment loans provide us with higher risk-adjusted returns, shorter maturities and more sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations, and are complemented by our relatively lower risk residential real estate loans to individuals. To a lesser extent, our credit card portfolio supplements our traditional lending products with enhanced yields. Our lending activities are principally directed to our market area consisting of the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland metropolitan areas.

In addition to the portfolio loans shown above, SBA-PPP loans receivable, which totaled $208.1 million at June 30, 2021, mature in the 1-5 year time-frame and carry a fixed rate of interest.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming loans decreased to $8.4 million, or 0.60% of total portfolio loans, at June 30, 2021 compared to $9.2 million, or 0.70% of total portfolio loans, at December 31, 2020. The $859 thousand, or 9.3%, decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to decreases of $2.3 million in commercial real estate loans and $468 thousand in commercial loans which were partially offset by an increase of $914 thousand in nonperforming construction loans and $1.0 million in residential real


			51

estate. Included in nonperforming loans at June 30, 2021 are troubled debt restructurings of $558 thousand.

Foreclosed real estate decreased to $3.2 million as of June 30, 2021 compared to $3.3 million as of December 31, 2020 due to the sale of a residential loan.

Total nonperforming assets were $11.6 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $12.6 million at December 31, 2020, or 0.54% and 0.67% of corresponding total assets, respectively.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we anticipate that our commercial, commercial real estate, residential and consumer borrowers could encounter economic difficulties, which could lead to increases in our levels of nonperforming assets, impaired loans and troubled debt restructurings.

(1)Category includes loans graded exceptional, very good, good, satisfactory and pass / watch, in addition to credit cards and consumer credits that are not graded.

At June 30, 2021, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $7.9 million, of which $373 thousand required a specific reserve of $236 thousand. This compares to a recorded investment in impaired loans of $10.0 million at December 31, 2020, including $391 thousand which required a specific reserve of $253 thousand. The decrease in impaired loans is largely attributable to a reduction in commercial real estate of $2.3 million and $468 thousand in commercial which was partially offset by an increase in $664 thousand in construction and residential real estate of $46 thousand.

Impaired loans also include certain loans that have been modified as TDRs. The Company had five loans amounting to $558 thousand at June 30, 2021, and five loans totaling $440 thousand at December 31, 2020 that were considered to be TDRs.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain an allowance for loan losses that represents management’s best estimate of the loan losses and risks inherent in our loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance for loan losses should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs in future periods will necessarily occur in those amounts, or at all. In determining the allowance for loan losses, we estimate losses on specific loans, or groups of loans, where the probable loss can be identified and reasonably determined. The balance of the allowance for loan losses is based on internally assigned risk classifications of loans, historical loan loss rates, changes in the nature of our loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, current economic factors and the estimated impact of current economic conditions on certain historical


			53

loan loss rates. The following table presents a summary of changes in the allowance for loan losses for the periods and dates indicated:

Annualized net charge-offs to average portfolio loans	0.19		%	0.09		%
Net charge-offs to average loans, excluding PPP loans	0.12		%	0.09		%

Our allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $24.1 million, or 1.73% of portfolio loans, and $23.4 million, or 1.78% of portfolio loans, respectively. The provision for loan losses of $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to a small number of loan charge-offs which was offset by improving overall credit metrics. The allowance for loan losses for SBA-PPP loans was separately evaluated given the explicit government guarantee. This analysis, which incorporated historical experience with similar SBA guarantees and underwriting, concluded that the likelihood of loss was remote and therefore these loans were not assigned a reserve in the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2021 included specific reserves of $236 thousand established for impaired loans. Charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $672 thousand and were partially offset by recoveries of $33 thousand. At December 31, 2020 the allowance for loan losses included specific reserves of $253 thousand established for impaired loans. Charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $1.2 million, and were partially offset by recoveries of $57 thousand. The charge-offs for the first six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020 were primarily due to credit card charge-offs.

Although we believe that we have established the allowance for loan losses in accordance with GAAP and that the allowance for loan losses was adequate to provide for known and inherent losses in the


			54

portfolio at all times shown above, future provisions for loan losses will be subject to ongoing evaluations of the risks in our loan portfolio.

The following table shows the allocation of the allowance for loan losses among loan categories and certain other information as of the dates indicated. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any loan category.

(1)Loan category as a percentage of total portfolio loans.

Management continues to monitor the loan portfolio for industry concentrations that may be impacted as the economy works through the impacts of COVID-19. While the Company has negligible exposure to the energy sector, shared national credits or leveraged lending, the Bank does have exposures to affected industries such as, for example, hospitality, food service and retail businesses.

Management has been working with customers on payment deferrals to assist companies in managing through the pandemic. The following table shows the allocation of deferred loans related to COVID-19:

Outstanding deferred loans decreased $132.1 million, or 91.7%, from June 30, 2020 to June 30, 2021. Loans that have been removed from deferred status have returned to original payment terms.

Deposits

Deposits are the major source of funding for the Company. We offer a variety of deposit products including interest bearing demand, savings, money market and time accounts, all of which we actively market at competitive pricing. We generate deposits from our customers on a relationship basis and through the efforts of our commercial lending officers and our business banking officers. Our credit card customers are a significant source of noninterest bearing deposits and accounted for $241.7 million, or 29.2%, of our total noninterest bearing deposit balances as of June 30, 2021, an increase of $49.2 million from December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021, noninterest bearing deposits amounted to $828.3 million, an increase of $219.7 million, or 36.1%, compared to the level at December 31, 2020 due in large part to an increase of $43.4 million in fiduciary accounts and the above noted increase in deposits generated by our OpenSky® secured credit card program. If needed, we supplement our deposits with wholesale funding sources such as brokered deposits.

Interest bearing deposits increased $45.5 million, or 4.4%, from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021 and included increases in interest bearing demand and money market accounts, offset by a reduction in certificates of deposits. The Company continues to execute on its strategic initiative to improve the deposit portfolio mix from wholesale deposits to core deposits including noninterest bearing deposits. During the period, certificates of deposit decreased $51.9 million, or 15.5%, with brokered deposits representing a majority of that decrease. Interest bearing demand and money market accounts increased $57.8 million, or 22.5%, and $37.5 million, or 8.4%, from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021, respectively.

The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits decreased 50 basis points from 1.18% for the year ended December 31, 2020 to 0.68% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Rates paid on certificates of deposit decreased 40 basis points over the same period. The decrease in the average rates reflects decreases in market interest rates.

The following table presents the average balances and average rates paid on deposits for the periods indicated:

Borrowings

We primarily utilize short-term and long-term borrowings to supplement deposits to fund our lending and investment activities, each of which is discussed below.

FHLB Advances. The FHLB allows us to borrow up to 25% of our assets on a blanket floating lien status collateralized by certain securities and loans. As of June 30, 2021, approximately $192.9 million in real estate loans pledged as collateral to the FHLB support a $514.4 million line of credit. We utilize these borrowings to meet liquidity needs and to fund certain fixed rate loans in our portfolio. As of June 30, 2021, we had $22.0 million in outstanding advances and our available borrowing capacity at the FHLB was $170.9 million.

The following table sets forth certain information on our FHLB borrowings during the periods presented:

FHLB ADVANCES


	For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021			For the Year Ended December 31, 2020
(in thousands)
Amount outstanding at period-end	$	22,000		$	22,000

Average balance outstanding during the period	$	22,000		$	25,917
Weighted average interest rate during the period	0.94		%	2.15		%

The Company has also issued junior subordinated debentures and other subordinated notes. At June 30, 2021, these other borrowings amounted to $12.1 million.

At June 30, 2021, our junior subordinated debentures amounted to $2.1 million. The junior subordinated debentures were issued in June of 2006, mature on June 15, 2036, and may be redeemed prior to that date under certain circumstances. The principal amount of the debentures has not changed since issuance, and they accrue interest at a floating rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 1.87%.

On November 30, 2020, the Company issued $10.0 million in subordinated notes due in 2030 to repay the higher yielding subordinated noted amounting to $13.5 million, reducing interest expense. The notes have a ten year term and have a fixed rate of 5.00% for the first five years; thereafter, the rate resets quarterly to a benchmark rate plus 490 basis points. The notes may be redeemed in part or in whole, upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond has an available borrower in custody arrangement which allows us to borrow on a collateralized basis. The Company’s borrowing capacity under the Federal


			57

Reserve’s discount window program was $15.6 million as of June 30, 2021. Certain commercial loans are pledged under this arrangement. We maintain this borrowing arrangement to meet liquidity needs pursuant to our contingency funding plan. No advances were outstanding under this facility as of June 30, 2021.

The Company also has available lines of credit of $76.0 million with other correspondent banks at June 30, 2021, as well as access to certificate of deposit funding through a financial network and wholesale brokers. Our funding policy limits use of this funding source to 30% of the Bank’s deposits. These lines were not utilized at June 30, 2021.


			58

Liquidity

Liquidity is defined as the Bank’s capacity to meet its cash and collateral obligations at a reasonable cost. Maintaining an adequate level of liquidity depends on the Bank’s ability to meet both expected and unexpected cash flows and collateral needs efficiently without adversely affecting either daily operations or the financial condition of the Bank. Liquidity risk is the risk that we will be unable to meet our obligations as they become due because of an inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding. The Bank’s obligations, and the funding sources used to meet them, depend significantly on our business mix, balance sheet structure and the cash flow profiles of our on- and off-balance sheet obligations. In managing our cash flows, management regularly confronts situations that can give rise to increased liquidity risk. These include funding mismatches, market constraints on the ability to convert assets into cash or in accessing sources of funds (i.e., market liquidity) and contingent liquidity events. Changes in economic conditions or exposure to credit, market, operational, legal and reputational risks also could affect the Bank’s liquidity risk profile and are considered in the assessment of liquidity and asset/liability management.

Management has established a management process for identifying, measuring, monitoring and controlling liquidity risk. Because of its critical importance to the viability of the Bank, liquidity risk management is fully integrated into our risk management processes. Critical elements of our liquidity risk management include: corporate governance consisting of oversight by the board of directors and active involvement by management; strategies, policies, procedures, and limits used to manage and mitigate liquidity risk; liquidity risk measurement and monitoring systems (including assessments of the current and prospective cash flows or sources and uses of funds) that are believed to be commensurate with the complexity and business activities of the Bank; active management of intraday liquidity and collateral; a diverse mix of existing and potential future funding sources; holding liquid marketable securities, free of legal, regulatory or operational impediments, that can be used to meet liquidity needs in stressful situations; contingency funding plans that address potential adverse liquidity events and emergency cash flow requirements; and internal controls and internal audit processes believed to be sufficient to determine the adequacy of the institution’s liquidity risk management process.

We expect funds to be available from a number of basic banking activity sources, including the core deposit base, the repayment and maturity of loans and investment security cash flows. Other potential funding sources include brokered certificates of deposit, deposit listing services, CDARS, borrowings from the FHLB and other lines of credit.

As of June 30, 2021, we had $170.9 million of available borrowing capacity from the FHLB, $15.6 million of available borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and available lines of credit of $76.0 million with other correspondent banks. In addition, as a participant in the PPPLF, the Bank has funding available at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond upon the pledging of the SBA-PPP loans. SBA-PPP loans available for pledging amounted to $202.8 million at June 30, 2021. The funding facility is available to be drawn upon through July 30, 2021 at a rate of 0.35% for the corresponding term of the underlying SBA-PPP loan collateral. Cash and cash equivalents were $308.7 million at June 30, 2021 and $146.9 million at December 31, 2020. We believe our liquidity resources are at sufficient levels to fund loans and meet other cash needs as necessary.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity increased $17.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased retained earnings by $18.6 million. Stock options exercised and stock-based compensation increased common stock and additional paid-in capital in the aggregate by $885 thousand. These increases were partially offset by the change in net unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $1.6 million.

The Company uses several indicators of capital strength. The most commonly used measure is the Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio (common equity tier 1 capital divided by risk weighted assets), which was 13.94% at June 30, 2021 and 12.94% at December 31, 2020. The Company has above-average levels of capital and has taken steps to navigate COVID-19 related disruptions, including taking higher levels than normal of loan loss provisions and maintaining higher than normal levels of liquidity on the balance sheet.

The following table shows the return on average assets (computed as net income divided by average total assets), return on average equity (computed as net income divided by average equity) and common equity tier 1 capital ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020.


	For the Three Months Ended		For the Six Months Ended		For the Year Ended
	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Return on Average Assets(1)	1.90	%	1.88	%	1.38	%
Return on Average Equity(1)	22.36	%	22.33	%	13.66	%
Common Equity Tier 1 Capital	13.94	%	12.25	%	12.94	%

_______________

(1)These ratios are annualized for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can precipitate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

As of June 30, 2021, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable regulatory capital requirements to which it was subject, and the Bank was classified as “well capitalized” for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations. As we deploy our capital and continue to grow our operations, our regulatory capital levels may decrease depending on our level of earnings. However, we intend to monitor and control our growth in order to remain in compliance with all regulatory capital standards applicable to us.

Off-Balance Sheet Items

In the normal course of business, we enter into various transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not included in our consolidated balance sheets. We enter into these transactions to meet the financing needs of our customers. These transactions include commitments to extend credit and issue letters of credit, which involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amounts of these commitments. The same credit policies and procedures are generally used in making these commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments. We are not aware of any accounting loss to be incurred by funding these commitments; however, we maintain an allowance for off-balance sheet credit risk which is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Our commitments associated with outstanding letters of credit and commitments to extend credit expiring by period as of the date indicated are summarized below. Since commitments associated with letters of credit and commitments to extend credit may expire unused, the amounts shown do not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirements.

CREDIT EXTENSION COMMITMENTS


	As of June 30, 2021		As of December 31, 2020
(in thousands)
Unfunded lines of credit	$	363,334	$	331,576
Commitments to originate residential loans held for sale	3,949		11,444
Letters of credit	5,132		5,102
Commitment to fund other investments	8,000		$	—
Total credit extension commitments	$	380,415	$	348,122

Unfunded lines of credit represent unused credit facilities to our current borrowers. Lines of credit generally have variable interest rates. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. In the event of nonperformance by the customer in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, we would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount of the commitment. If the commitment is funded, we would be entitled to seek recovery from the client from the underlying collateral, which can include commercial real estate, physical plant and property, inventory, receivables, cash and/or marketable securities. Our policies generally require that letter of credit arrangements contain security and debt covenants similar to those contained in loan agreements.

We seek to minimize our exposure to loss under letters of credit and credit commitments by subjecting them to the same credit approval and monitoring procedures as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. The effect on our revenue, expenses, cash flows and liquidity of the unused portions of these letters of credit commitments cannot be precisely predicted because we do not control the extent to which the lines of credit may be used.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a customer, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have variable interest rates, fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn, the total commitment amounts disclosed above do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if considered necessary by us, upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

We enter into forward commitments for the delivery of mortgage loans in our current pipeline. Interest rate lock commitments are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from our commitments to fund the loans. These commitments to fund mortgage loans to be sold into the secondary market, along with the interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, are considered derivatives.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk

As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Our asset liability and funds management policy provides management with the guidelines for funds management, and we have established a measurement system for monitoring our net interest rate sensitivity position. We endeavor to manage our sensitivity position within our established guidelines.

Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, other than those that have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair market values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income.

We endeavor to manage our exposure to interest rates by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not enter into instruments such as leveraged derivatives, financial options or financial futures contracts for the purpose of reducing interest rate risk. We hedge the interest rate risks of our available for sale mortgage pipeline by using mortgage-backed securities, and short positions. Based on the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed by the Bank’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) in accordance with policies approved by our board of directors. The committee formulates strategies based on perceived levels of interest rate risk. In determining the appropriate level of interest rate risk, the committee considers the impact on earnings and capital of the current outlook on interest rates, potential changes in interest rates, regional economies, liquidity, business strategies and other factors. The committee meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses, purchase and sale activities, commitments to originate loans and the maturities of investments and borrowings. Additionally, the committee reviews liquidity, cash flow flexibility, maturities of deposits and consumer and commercial deposit activity. Management employs methodologies to manage interest rate risk, which include an analysis of relationships between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and an interest rate shock simulation model.

The following table indicates that, for periods less than one year, rate-sensitive assets exceeded rate-sensitive liabilities, resulting in an asset-sensitive position. For a bank with an asset-sensitive position, or positive gap, rising interest rates would generally be expected to have a positive effect on net interest income, and falling interest rates would generally be expected to have the opposite effect.

(1)Includes loans held for sale and loans made under the SBA-PPP loan program.

We use quarterly Earnings at Risk (“EAR”) simulations to assess the impact of changing interest rates on our earnings under a variety of scenarios and time horizons. These simulations utilize both instantaneous and parallel changes in the level of interest rates, as well as non-parallel changes such as changing slopes and twists of the yield curve. Static simulation models are based on current exposures and assume a constant balance sheet with no new growth. Dynamic simulation models are also utilized that rely on assumptions regarding changes in existing lines of business, new business, and changes in management and client behavior.

We also use economic value-based methodologies to measure the degree to which the economic values of the Bank’s positions change under different interest rate scenarios. The economic-value approach focuses on a longer-term time horizon and endeavors to capture all future cash flows expected from existing assets and liabilities. The economic value model utilizes a static approach in that the analysis does not incorporate new business; rather, the analysis shows a snapshot in time of the risk inherent in the balance sheet.


			65

Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our net interest income, such as asset prepayments, non-maturity deposit price sensitivity and decay rates, and key rate drivers. Because of the inherent use of these estimates and assumptions in the model, our actual results may, and very likely will, differ from our static EAR results. In addition, static EAR results do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates or client behavior. For example, as part of our asset/liability management strategy, management has the ability to increase asset duration and decrease liability duration in order to reduce asset sensitivity, or to decrease asset duration and increase liability duration in order to increase asset sensitivity.

The following table summarizes the results of our EAR analysis in simulating the change in net interest income and fair value of equity over a 12-month horizon as of June 30, 2021:

IMPACT ON NET INTEREST INCOME UNDER A STATIC BALANCE SHEET, PARALLEL INTEREST RATE SHOCK


Earnings at Risk	-100 bps		Flat		+100 bps		+200 bps		+300 bps
June 30, 2021	1.4	%	0.0	%	281.0	%	817.0	%	1392.0	%

Utilizing an economic value of equity (“EVE”) approach, we analyze the risk to capital from the effects of various interest rate scenarios through a long-term discounted cash flow model. This measures the difference between the economic value of our assets and the economic value of our liabilities, which is a proxy for our liquidation value. While this provides some value as a risk measurement tool, management believes EAR is more appropriate in accordance with the going concern principle.

The following table illustrates the results of our EVE analysis as of June 30, 2021.
