INTRODUCTORY NOTE
Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations,
estimates and intentions that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, many of
which are beyond our control.
 
The words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,”
 
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,”
“target,” “goal,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
 
Our actual future results may differ materially from
those set forth in our forward-looking statements.
Our ability to
 
achieve our financial objectives
 
could be adversely affected
 
by the factors discussed
 
in detail in Part
 
I, Item 2. “Management’s
Discussion and
 
Analysis of Financial
 
Condition and
 
Results of Operations”
 
and Part II,
 
Item 1A. “Risk
 
Factors” in this
 
Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q and
 
the following sections
 
of our Annual
 
Report on Form
 
10-K for the
 
year ended December
 
31, 2022
 
(the “2022 Form
 
10-K”):
(a) “Introductory
 
Note” in
 
Part I,
 
Item 1.
 
“Business” (b)
 
“Risk Factors”
 
in Part
 
I, Item
 
1A, as
 
updated in
 
our subsequent
 
quarterly reports
filed on Form 10-Q; and (c)
 
“Introduction” in “Management’s
 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
 
and Results of Operations,” in
Part II, Item 7, as well as:
our ability to successfully manage credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and other risks inherent to our industry;
legislative or regulatory changes;
adverse developments in the financial services industry generally, such as the recent bank failures and any related impact on depositor
behavior;
 
the effects of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits and the competition for deposits on our funding costs, net
interest margin and ability to replace maturing deposits and advances, as necessary;
 
the effects of actions taken by governmental agencies to stabilize the recent volatility in the financial system and the effectiveness of such
actions;
 
changes in monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government;
inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;
the effects of security breaches and computer viruses that may affect our computer systems or fraud related to debit card products;
the accuracy of our financial statement estimates and assumptions, including the estimates used for our allowance for credit losses,
deferred tax asset valuation and pension plan;
changes in our liquidity position;
changes in accounting principles, policies, practices or guidelines;
the frequency and magnitude of foreclosure of our loans;
the effects of our lack of a diversified loan portfolio, including the risks of loan segments, geographic and industry concentrations;
the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations;
 
our ability to declare and pay dividends, the payment of which is subject to our capital requirements;
changes in the securities and real estate markets;
structural changes in the markets for origination, sale and servicing of residential mortgages;
uncertainty in the pricing of residential mortgage loans that we sell, as well as competition for the mortgage servicing rights related to these
loans and related interest rate risk or price risk resulting from retaining mortgage servicing rights and the potential effects of higher interest
rates on our loan origination volumes;
the effect of corporate restructuring, acquisitions or dispositions, including the actual restructuring and other related charges and the failure
to achieve the expected gains, revenue growth or expense savings from such corporate restructuring, acquisitions or dispositions;
the effects of natural disasters, harsh weather conditions (including hurricanes), widespread health emergencies (including pandemics, such
as the COVID-19 pandemic), military conflict, terrorism, civil unrest or other geopolitical events;
our ability to comply with the extensive laws and regulations to which we are subject, including the laws for each jurisdiction where we
operate;
the willingness of clients to accept third-party products and services rather than our products and services and vice versa;
increased competition and its effect on pricing;
technological changes;
the outcomes of litigation or regulatory proceedings;
negative publicity and the impact on our reputation;
changes in consumer spending and saving habits;
growth and profitability of our noninterest income;
the limited trading activity of our common stock;
the concentration of ownership of our common stock;
anti-takeover provisions under federal and state law as well as our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws;
other risks described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and
our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing.
However, other factors besides those listed in
Item 1A Risk Factors
 
or discussed in this Form 10-Q also could adversely affect our results,
and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
 
Any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf speak only as of the date they are made.
 
We do not undertake to update any forward-looking
statement, except as required by applicable law.

CAPITAL CITY BANK
 
GROUP,
 
INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED
 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 –
BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Nature of Operations
.
 
Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (“CCBG” or the “Company”) provides a full range of
 
banking and banking-
related services to individual and corporate clients through its subsidiary,
 
Capital City Bank, with banking offices located in Florida,
Georgia, and Alabama.
 
The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions, is subject to
 
regulation by certain
government agencies and undergoes periodic examinations
 
by those regulatory authorities.
Basis of Presentation
.
 
The consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
 
10-Q include the accounts of CCBG
and its wholly owned subsidiary,
 
Capital City Bank (“CCB” or the “Bank”).
 
All material inter-company transactions and accounts
have been eliminated.
 
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s
 
presentation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
 
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
 
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
 
Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted
 
accounting principles for complete financial
statements.
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
 
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.
 
The Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at December
 
31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes
 
required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements.
 
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes
 
thereto included in the
Company’s annual report
 
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Accounting Standards Updates
Adoption of New Accounting Standard,
 
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-02,
“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic
 
326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage
 
Disclosures.” ASU 2022-02 eliminates
the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings in Accounting
 
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310-40, “Receivables -
Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors
 
 
for entities that have adopted the current expected credit loss model introduced
 
by ASU
2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic
 
326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.”
 
ASU 2022-
02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period
 
gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables
and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, “Financial
 
Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized
Cost.”
Proposed Accounting Standards
,
ASU
 
2023-01, “Leases (Topic
 
842)
:
 
Common Control Arrangements.” ASU 2023-01 requires
entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control
 
leases over the useful life to the common control group.
ASU 2023-01 also provides certain practical expedients applicable to private
 
companies and not-for-profit organizations. ASU 2023-
01 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2024, though
 
early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect
that ASU 2023-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
ASU No.
 
2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures
 
(Topic
 
323)
: Accounting for Investments in Tax
 
Credit
Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” ASU 2023-02
 
is intended to improve the accounting and disclosures for
investments in tax credit structures. ASU 2023-02 allows entities to elect to account
 
for qualifying tax equity investments using the
proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving
 
rise to the related income tax credits. Previously,
 
this method was
only available for qualifying tax equity investments in low-income
 
housing tax credit structures. ASU 2023-02 will be effective for the
Company on January 1, 2024, though early adoption is permitted. The
 
Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-02 will have
on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

respectively,
 
at June 30, 2023 and $
2.1

at December 31, 2022.
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the investment portfolio had $
1.7
 
million and $
0.01
 
million, respectively in equity
securities. These securities do not have a readily determinable fair value
 
and were not credit impaired.
 
Securities with an amortized cost of $
613.7
 
million and $
656.1
 
million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively,
 
were

The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”), is required
 
to own capital stock in the FHLB based
generally upon the balances of residential and commercial real estate loans and
 
FHLB advances.
 
FHLB stock, which is included in
other securities,
 
is pledged to secure FHLB advances.
 
No ready market exists for this stock, and it has no quoted fair value; however,
redemption of this stock has historically been at par value.

As a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, the Bank is required to maintain
 
stock in the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta
based on a specified ratio relative to the Bank’s
 
capital.

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company transferred certain securities from
 
the AFS to HTM classification.
 
Transfers are made
at fair value on the date of the transfer.
 
The
33
 
securities had an amortized cost basis and fair value of $
168.4
 
million and $
159.0
million, respectively at the time of transfer.
 
The net unamortized, unrealized loss on the transferred securities included
 
in accumulated
other comprehensive loss in the accompanying balance sheet at June 30, 2023
 
totaled $
6.2
 
million.
 
This amount will continue to be
amortized out of accumulated other comprehensive loss over the remaining
 
life of the underlying securities as an adjustment of the
yield on those securities.
Investment Sales.
There were no significant sales of investment securities for the three or six months
 
ended June 30, 2023. There were
no significant sales of investment securities for the three months ended
 
June 30, 2022 and $

million in sales for the six months
ended June 30, 2022.
Maturity Distribution
.
 
At June 30, 2023, the Company’s investment
 
securities had the following maturity distribution based on
contractual maturity.
 
Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because
 
borrowers may have the right to call or
prepay obligations.
 
Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and certain amortizing U.S. government
 
agency securities are shown
separately because they are not due at a certain maturity date.

At June 30, 2023, there were
917
 
positions (combined AFS and HTM) with unrealized losses totaling $
84.2
 
million.
 
86
 
of these
positions are U.S. Treasury bonds and
 
carry the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
 
705
 
are U.S. government agency
securities issued by U.S. government sponsored entities.
 
We believe
 
the long history of no credit losses on government securities
indicates that the expectation of nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is effectively
 
zero.
 
The remaining
126
 
positions (municipal
securities and corporate bonds) have a credit component.
 
At June 30, 2023, all collateralized mortgage obligation securities (“CMO”),
MBS, Small Business Administration securities (“SBA”), U.S. Agency,
 
and U.S. Treasury bonds held were AAA rated.
 
At June 30,
2023, corporate debt securities had an allowance for credit losses of $
19,000
 
and municipal securities had an allowance of $
5,000
.
Credit Quality Indicators
The Company monitors the credit quality of its investment securities through
 
various risk management procedures, including the
monitoring of credit ratings.
 
A majority of the debt securities in the Company’s
 
investment portfolio were issued by a U.S.
government entity or agency and are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed
 
by the U.S. government.
 
The Company believes the
long history of no credit losses on these securities indicates that the expectation
 
of nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is
effectively zero, even if the U.S. government were
 
to technically default.
 
Further, certain municipal securities held by the Company
have been pre-refunded and secured by government guaranteed treasuries.
 
Therefore, for the aforementioned securities, the Company
does
no
t assess or record expected credit losses due to the zero loss assumption.
 
The Company monitors the credit quality of its
municipal and corporate securities portfolio via credit ratings
 
which are updated on a quarterly basis.
 
On a quarterly basis, municipal
and corporate securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated to determine
 
if the loss is attributable to credit related factors and
if an allowance for credit loss is needed.

Allowance for Credit Losses
.
 
The methodology for estimating the amount of credit losses reported in the
 
allowance for credit losses
(“ACL”) has two basic components: first, an asset-specific component
 
involving loans that do not share risk characteristics and the
measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans; and second,
 
a pooled component for expected credit losses for pools
of loans that share similar risk characteristics.
 
This allowance methodology is discussed further in Note 1 – Significant
 
Accounting
Policies in the Company’s 2022 Form
 
10-K.
 
The following table details the activity in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio
 
segment.
 
Allocation of a portion of the
allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb
 
losses in other categories.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the allowance for HFI loans increased
 
by $
3.2
 
million and reflected a provision expense of
$
5.2
 
million and net loan charge-offs of $
2.0
 
million.
 
The increase was primarily driven by incremental reserves needed for
 
loan
growth.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the allowance decreased by $
0.3
 
million and reflected a provision expense of $
1.6
million and net loan charge-offs of $
1.9
 
million. The lower provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily
due to the release of reserves held for potential pandemic-related losses that did
 
not materialize to the extent projected, partially offset
by growth in reserves for strong new loan origination volume. Four unemployment
 
forecast scenarios were utilized to estimate
probability of default and are weighted based on management’s
 
estimate of probability.
 
See Note 8 – Commitments and
Contingencies for information on the allowance for off-balance
 
sheet credit commitments.

Nonaccrual Loans
.
 
Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments
 
become 90 days past due and/or
management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to
 
be doubtful.
 
Loans are returned to accrual status when the
principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current
 
or when future payments are reasonably assured.
 
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans in nonaccrual
 
status and loans past due over 90 days and still on accrual

-
A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing
 
financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is dependent on
 
the
sale or operation of the underlying collateral.
 
The Bank’s collateral dependent
 
loan portfolio is comprised primarily of real estate secured loans, collateralized
 
by either residential
or commercial collateral types.
 
The loans are carried at fair value based on current values determined by
 
either independent appraisals
or internal evaluations, adjusted for selling costs or other amounts to be deducted
 
when estimating expected net sales proceeds.
 
Residential Real Estate Loans In Process of Foreclosure
.
 
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $
0.7
 
million
and $
0.6
 
million, respectively, in 1-4 family
 
residential real estate loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company did
no
t modify any loans made to borrowers experiencing financial
difficulty.
 
Credit Risk Management
.
 
The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and
 
loan review
procedures designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level
 
of risk.
 
Management and the Board of Directors review and
approve these policies and procedures on a regular basis (at least annually).
 
Reporting systems are used to monitor loan originations, loan quality,
 
concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming
loans and potential problem loans.
 
Management and the Credit Risk Oversight Committee periodically review
 
our lines of business to
monitor asset quality trends and the appropriateness of credit policies.
 
In addition, total borrower exposure limits are established and
concentration risk is monitored.
 
As part of this process, the overall composition of the portfolio is reviewed to gauge diversification
of risk, client concentrations, industry group, loan type, geographic area, or
 
other relevant classifications of loans.
 
Specific segments
of the loan portfolio are monitored and reported to the Board on a quarterly basis and
 
have strategic plans in place to supplement
Board approved credit policies governing exposure limits and underwriting
 
standards.
 
Detailed below are the types of loans within
the Company’s loan portfolio
 
and risk characteristics unique to each.
 
Commercial, Financial, and Agricultural – Loans in this category
 
are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower
with consideration given to underlying collateral and personal or
 
other guarantees.
 
Lending policy establishes debt service coverage
ratio limits that require a borrower’s cash flow to be sufficient
 
to cover principal and interest payments on all new and existing debt.
 
The majority of these loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such
 
as accounts receivable, inventory,
 
or
equipment.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Loan to value ratios at origination are
governed by established policy guidelines.
 
Real Estate Construction – Loans in this category consist of short-term
 
construction loans, revolving and non-revolving credit lines
and construction/permanent loans made to individuals and investors to finance
 
the acquisition, development, construction or
rehabilitation of real property.
 
These loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower
 
or project and generally
secured by the property being financed, including 1-4 family residential properties
 
and commercial properties that are either owner-
occupied or investment in nature.
 
These properties may include either vacant or improved property.
 
Construction loans are generally
based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the completed project.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third
party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Loan to value ratios at origination are governed by established policy guidelines.
 
The disbursement
of funds for construction loans is made in relation to the progress of the project and
 
as such these loans are closely monitored by on-
site inspections.
 
 
 
 
 
17
Real Estate Commercial Mortgage – Loans in this category consists of commercial
 
mortgage loans secured by property that is either
owner-occupied or investment in nature.
 
These loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower or
 
project
with consideration given to underlying real estate collateral and
 
personal guarantees.
 
Lending policy establishes debt service
coverage ratios and loan to value ratios specific to the property type.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party
appraisals and evaluations.
 
Real Estate Residential – Residential mortgage loans held in the Company’s
 
loan portfolio are made to borrowers that demonstrate the
ability to make scheduled payments with full consideration to underwriting
 
factors such as current income, employment status, current
assets, and other financial resources, credit history,
 
and the value of the collateral.
 
Collateral consists of mortgage liens on 1-4 family
residential properties.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
The Company does not
originate sub-prime loans.
 
Real Estate Home Equity – Home equity loans and lines are made to qualified individuals
 
for legitimate purposes generally secured
by senior or junior mortgage liens on owner-occupied
 
1-4 family homes or vacation homes.
 
Borrower qualifications include
favorable credit history combined with supportive income and debt ratio
 
requirements and combined loan to value ratios within
established policy guidelines.
 
Collateral values are determined based upon third party appraisals and evaluations.
 
Consumer Loans – This loan portfolio includes personal installment loans,
 
direct and indirect automobile financing, and overdraft
lines of credit.
 
The majority of the consumer loan category consists of direct and indirect automobile
 
loans.
 
Lending policy
establishes maximum debt to income ratios, minimum credit scores, and includes
 
guidelines for verification of applicants’ income and
receipt of credit reports.
Credit Quality Indicators
.
 
As part of the ongoing monitoring of the Company’s
 
loan portfolio quality, management
 
categorizes loans
into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to
 
service their debt such as: current financial
information, historical payment performance, credit documentation,
 
and current economic and market trends, among other
factors.
 
Risk ratings are assigned to each loan and revised as needed through established monitoring
 
procedures for individual loan
relationships over a predetermined amount and review of smaller balance homogenous
 
loan pools.
 
The Company uses the definitions
noted below for categorizing and managing its criticized loans.
 
Loans categorized as “Pass” do not meet the criteria set forth below
and are not considered criticized.
Special Mention – Loans in this category are presently protected from loss, but
 
weaknesses are apparent which, if not corrected, could
cause future problems.
 
Loans in this category may not meet required underwriting criteria and
 
have no mitigating factors.
 
More than
the ordinary amount of attention is warranted for these loans.
Substandard – Loans in this category exhibit well-defined weaknesses that would
 
typically bring normal repayment into jeopardy.
These loans are no longer adequately protected due to well-defined
 
weaknesses that affect the repayment capacity of the
borrower.
 
The possibility of loss is much more evident and above average supervision is required for
 
these loans.
Doubtful – Loans in this category have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan categorized
 
as Substandard, with the characteristic that
the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of
 
currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly
questionable and improbable.
Performing/Nonperforming – Loans within certain homogenous
 
loan pools (home equity and consumer) are not individually reviewed,
but are monitored for credit quality via the aging status of the loan and by payment
 
activity.
 
The performing or nonperforming status
is updated on an on-going basis dependent upon improvement and
 
deterioration in credit quality.

NOTE 4 – MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES
The Company’s mortgage
 
banking activities include mandatory delivery loan sales, forward sales contracts used
 
to manage residential
loan pipeline price risk, utilization of warehouse lines to fund secondary
 
market residential loan closings, and residential mortgage
servicing.
 
Residential Mortgage Loan Production
The Company originates, markets, and services conventional and government
 
-sponsored residential mortgage loans.
 
Generally,
conforming fixed rate residential mortgage loans are held for sale in the secondary
 
market and non-conforming and adjustable-rate
residential mortgage loans may be held for investment.
 
The volume of residential mortgage loans originated for sale and secondary
market prices are the primary drivers of origination revenue.
Residential mortgage loan commitments are generally outstanding for 30
 
to 90 days, which represents the typical period from
commitment to originate a residential mortgage loan to when the closed
 
loan is sold to an investor.
 
Residential mortgage loan
commitments are subject to both credit and price risk.
 
Credit risk is managed through underwriting policies and procedures,
 
including
collateral requirements, which are generally accepted by the secondary
 
loan markets.
 
Price risk is primarily related to interest rate
fluctuations and is partially managed through forward sales of residential mortgage
 
-backed securities (primarily to-be announced
securities, or TBAs) or mandatory delivery commitments with investors.
 
The unpaid principal balance of residential mortgage loans held for sale, notional
 
amounts of derivative contracts related to residential
mortgage loan commitments and forward contract sales and their related fair values
 
are set- forth below.

Conforming conventional loans serviced by the Company are sold to Federal
 
National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) on a non-
recourse basis, whereby foreclosure losses are generally
 
the responsibility of FNMA and not the Company.

Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), whereby the Company is
insured against loss by the Federal Housing Administration or partially
 
guaranteed against loss by the Veterans
 
Administration.
 
At
June 30, 2023, the servicing portfolio balance consisted of the following
 
loan types: FNMA (

mortgage loans held for sale and construction loans held for investment
pledged as collateral under the above warehouse lines of credit and master repurchase
 
agreements.
 
The above agreements also contain
covenants which include certain financial requirements, including
 
maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, minimum liquid
assets, and maximum debt to net worth ratio, as defined in the agreements.
 
The Company was in compliance with all significant debt
covenants at June 30, 2023.
 
The Company has extended a $

million warehouse line of credit to CCHL, a
51
% owned subsidiary entity.
 
Balances and
transactions under this line of credit are eliminated in the Company’s
 
consolidated financial statements and thus not included in the
total short term borrowings noted on the Consolidated Statement of
 
Financial Condition.
 
The balance of this line of credit at June 30,
2023 and December 31, 2022 was $
42.8
 
million and $
22.9
 
million, respectively.
NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVES
 
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures
 
that arise from business activities that result in the
receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of
 
which are determined by interest rates.
 
The Company’s
derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in
 
the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s
 
known or
expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally
 
related to the Company’s subordinated
 
debt.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $
30
 
million at June 30, 2023 were designed as a cash flow hedge for subordinated
debt.
 
Under the swap arrangement, the Company will pay a fixed interest rate of
2.50
% and receive a variable interest rate based on
three-month CME Term
 
SOFR (secured overnight financing rate).
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest
 
rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in
accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and subsequently
 
reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during
which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported
 
in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives
will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the
 
Company’s variable-rate subordinated
 
debt.

NOTE 6 – LEASES
Operating leases in which the Company is the lessee are recorded as operating
 
lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating
liabilities, included in other assets and liabilities, respectively,
 
on its Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
 
The Company’s operating
 
leases primarily relate to banking offices with remaining lease terms
 
from
1
 
to
42
 
years.
 
The Company’s
leases are not complex and do not contain residual value guarantees, variable
 
lease payments, or significant assumptions or judgments
made in applying the requirements of Topic
 
842.
 
Operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
 
At June 30, 2023, the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities were $
24.3
 
million and $
24.6
 
million, respectively. At December
 
31,
2022, ROU assets and liabilities were $
22.3
 
million and $
22.7
 
million, respectively.
 
The Company does not have any finance leases
or any significant lessor agreements.

NOTE 7 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all full-time
 
and eligible part-time associates and a
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) and a Supplemental
 
Executive Retirement Plan II (“SERP II”) covering its
executive officers.
 
The defined benefit plan was amended in December 2019 to remove plan eligibility
 
for new associates hired after
December 31, 2019.
 
The SERP II was adopted by the Company’s
 
Board on May 21, 2020 and covers certain executive officers that
were not covered by the SERP.
 
The components of the net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s
 
qualified benefit pension plan were as follows:

compensation expense in the accompanying statements of
income.
 
The other components of net periodic cost are included in “other” within the noninterest
 
expense category in the statements
of income.
NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lending Commitments
.
 
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance
 
sheet risks in the normal course of business
to meet the financing needs of its clients.
 
These financial instruments consist of commitments to extend credit and standby
 
letters of
credit.
The Company’s maximum exposure
 
to credit loss under standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit is represented
 
by
the contractual amount of those instruments.
 
The Company uses the same credit policies in establishing commitments
 
and issuing
letters of credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
 
The amounts associated with the Company’s
 
off-balance sheet
obligations were as follows:

Commitments include unfunded loans, revolving
 
lines of credit, and off-balance sheet residential
 
loan commitments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client so long as there is no violation of
 
any condition established in the
contract.
 
Commitments generally have 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 drawn upon,
 
the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the
 
Company to guarantee the performance of a client to a third
party.
 
The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved
 
in extending loan facilities. In
general, management does not anticipate any material losses as a result of
 
participating in these types of transactions.
 
However, any
potential losses arising from such transactions are reserved for in the same manner
 
as management reserves for its other credit
facilities.
For both on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, the Company
 
requires collateral to support such instruments when it is
deemed necessary.
 
The Company evaluates each client’s
 
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
 
The amount of collateral
obtained upon extension of credit is based on management’s
 
credit evaluation of the counterparty.
 
Collateral held varies, but may
include deposits held in financial institutions; U.S. Treasury
 
securities; other marketable securities; real estate; accounts receivable;
property, plant and
 
equipment; and inventory.
The allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet credit commitments
 
that are not unconditionally cancellable by the bank is
adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense and is recorded in other liabilities.
 
The following table shows the activity in the
allowance.

Other Commitments.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into lease commitments
 
which are classified as operating
leases. See Note 6 – Leases for additional information on the maturity of the
 
Company’s operating lease commitments.
 
Furthermore,
the Company has a commitment of up to $
1.0
 
million in a bank tech venture capital fund focused on finding and funding
 
technology
solutions for community banks and a commitment of up to $
7.4
 
million in a solar tax credit equity fund.
 
For the six months ended
June 30, 2023, the Company had contributed $
0.4
 
million of the bank tech commitment and $
2.9
 
million of the solar fund
commitment.
 
At December 31, 2022, the Company had contributed $
0.2
 
million of the bank tech commitment and $
1.0
 
million of the
solar fund commitment.
 
Contingencies
.
 
The Company is a party to lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business.
 
In management's opinion,
there are
no
 
known pending claims or litigation, the outcome of which would, individually or in
 
the aggregate, have a material effect
on the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows
 
of the Company.
Indemnification Obligation
.
 
The Company is a member of the Visa U.S.A. network.
 
Visa U.S.A member banks are
 
required to
indemnify the Visa U.S.A.
 
network for potential future settlement of certain litigation (the “Covered Litigation”)
 
that relates to several
antitrust lawsuits challenging the practices of Visa
 
and MasterCard International.
 
In 2008, the Company, as a member
 
of the Visa
U.S.A. network, obtained Class B shares of Visa,
 
Inc. upon its initial public offering.
 
Since its initial public offering, Visa,
 
Inc. has
funded a litigation reserve for the Covered Litigation resulting in a reduction
 
in the Class B shares held by the Company.
 
During the
first quarter of 2011, the Company sold its remaining
 
Class B shares.
 
Associated with this sale, the Company entered into a swap
contract with the purchaser of the shares that requires a payment to the
 
counterparty in the event that Visa, Inc. makes
 
subsequent
revisions to the conversion ratio for its Class B shares.
 
Conversion ratio payments and ongoing fixed quarterly charges
 
are reflected in
earnings in the period incurred.
 
Fixed charges included in the swap liability are payable quarterly
 
until the litigation reserve is fully
liquidated and at which time the aforementioned swap contract will be terminated.
 
Quarterly fixed payments approximate $
0.2
million.
 
NOTE 9 – FAIR VALUE
 
MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell that asset or paid
 
to transfer that liability in an orderly
transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in
 
the absence of a principal market) for such asset or
liability.
 
In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with
 
the market approach, the income
approach and/or the cost approach.
 
Such valuation techniques are consistently applied.
 
Inputs to valuation techniques include the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
 
ASC Topic 820
 
establishes a fair value hierarchy for
valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets
 
for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs.
 
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs -
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting
 
entity has the
ability to access at the measurement date
.
Level 2 Inputs -
Inputs other than quoted prices
 
included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
 
either directly
or indirectly. These might
 
include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices
 
for identical
or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other
 
than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or
liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
or inputs that are derived principally from, or
corroborated, by market data by correlation or other means
.
Level 3 Inputs -
Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect
 
an entity’s own
assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would
 
use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Recurring Basis
Securities Available for Sale.
 
U.S. Treasury securities are reported
 
at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs.
 
Other securities classified as
available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.
 
For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements
from an independent pricing service.
 
The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer
 
quotes, market
spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve,
 
live trading levels, trade execution data, credit information and the bond’s
 
terms
and conditions, among other things.
In general, the Company does not purchase securities that have a complicated structure.
 
The Company’s entire portfolio consists
 
of
traditional investments, nearly all of which are U.S. Treasury
 
obligations, federal agency bullet or mortgage pass-through
 
securities, or
general obligation or revenue-based municipal bonds.
 
Pricing for such instruments is easily obtained.
 
At least annually, the Company
will validate prices supplied by the independent pricing service by compari
 
ng them to prices obtained from an independent third-party
source.
Equity Securities.
 
Investment securities classified as equity securities are measured at
 
fair value of the investment with changes in fair
value recorded in earnings.

Loans Held for Sale
.
 
The fair value of residential mortgage loans held for sale based on Level 2 inputs is determined,
 
when possible,
using either quoted secondary-market prices or investor commitments.
 
If no such quoted price exists, the fair value is determined
using quoted prices for a similar asset or assets, adjusted for the specific attributes of
 
that loan, which would be used by other market
participants.
 
The Company has elected the fair value option accounting for its held for sale loans.
Mortgage Banking Derivative Instruments.
 
The fair values of interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) are derived by valuation
models incorporating market pricing for instruments with similar characteristics,
 
commonly referred to as best execution pricing, or
investor commitment prices for best effort IRLCs which have
 
unobservable inputs, such as an estimate of the fair value of the
servicing rights expected to be recorded upon sale of the loans, net estimated costs to originate
 
the loans, and the pull-through rate,
and are therefore classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
 
The fair value of forward sale commitments is based on
observable market pricing for similar instruments and are therefore
 
classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Interest Rate Swap.
The Company’s derivative positions are
 
classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and are valued using
models generally accepted in the financial services industry and that
 
use actively quoted or observable market input values from
external market data providers.
 
The fair value derivatives are determined using discounted cash flow models.
 
Fair Value
 
Swap
.
 
The Company entered into a stand-alone derivative contract with the purchaser of
 
its Visa Class B shares.
 
The
valuation represents the amount due and payable to the counterparty based upon
 
the revised share conversion rate, if any,
 
during the
period. At June 30, 2023, there were
no
 
amounts payable and at December 31, 2022, there was a $
0.1
 
million payable.

Mortgage Banking Activities
.
 
The Company had Level 3 issuances and transfers related to mortgage banking
 
activities of $
7.9
 
million
and $
11.8
 
million, respectively, for the
 
six months ended June 30, 2023, and $
7.7
 
million and $
16.8
 
million, respectively, for the
 
six
months ended June 30, 2022.
 
Issuances are valued based on the change in fair value of the underlying
 
mortgage loan from inception
of the IRLC to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition date,
 
adjusted for pull-through rates and costs to originate.
 
IRLCs
transferred out of Level 3 represent IRLCs that were funded and moved
 
to mortgage loans held for sale, at fair value.
Assets Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis (i.e.,
 
the assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis
but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances).
 
An example would be assets exhibiting evidence of impairment.
 
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured
 
on a non-recurring basis.
 
Collateral Dependent Loans
.
 
Impairment for collateral dependent loans is measured using the fair
 
value of the collateral less selling
costs.
 
The fair value of collateral is determined by an independent valuation
 
or professional appraisal in conformance with banking
regulations.
 
Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs due to the volatility in the real estate market,
 
and the judgment and
estimation involved in the real estate appraisal process.
 
Collateral dependent loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly
basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.
 
Valuation
 
techniques are consistent with those techniques applied in prior
periods.
 
Collateral-dependent loans had a carrying value of $
4.0
 
million with
no
 
valuation allowance at June 30, 2023 and a carrying
value of $
0.7
 
million and a $
0.1
 
million valuation allowance at December 31, 2022.
Other Real Estate Owned
.
 
During the first six months of 2023, certain foreclosed assets, upon initial recognition,
 
were measured and
reported at fair value through a charge-off
 
to the allowance for credit losses based on the fair value of the foreclosed asset less
estimated cost to sell.
 
The fair value of the foreclosed asset is determined by an independent valuation or
 
professional appraisal in
conformance with banking regulations.
 
On an ongoing basis, we obtain updated appraisals on foreclosed assets and
 
realize valuation
adjustments as necessary.
 
The fair value of foreclosed assets is estimated using Level 3 inputs due to the judgment
 
and estimation
involved in the real estate valuation process.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
.
 
Residential mortgage loan servicing rights are evaluated for impairment
 
at each reporting period based
upon the fair value of the rights as compared to the carrying amount.
 
Fair value is determined by a third party valuation model using
estimated prepayment speeds of the underlying mortgage loans serviced and
 
stratifications based on the risk characteristics of the
underlying loans (predominantly loan type and note interest rate).
 
The fair value is estimated using Level 3 inputs, including a
discount rate, weighted average prepayment speed, and the cost of loan
 
servicing.
 
Further detail on the key inputs utilized are
provided in Note 4 – Mortgage Banking Activities.
 
At each of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was
no
 
valuation
allowance for loan servicing rights.
 
Assets and Liabilities Disclosed at Fair Value
The Company is required to disclose the estimated fair value of financial instruments,
 
both assets and liabilities, for which it is
practical to estimate fair value and the following is a description of valuation
 
methodologies used for those assets and liabilities.
Cash and Short-Term
 
Investments.
 
The carrying amount of cash and short-term investments is used to approximate
 
fair value, given
the short time frame to maturity and as such assets do not present unanticipated
 
credit concerns.
Equity Securities.
 
Investment securities classified as equity securities that do not have readily determinable
 
fair values are measured at
cost and remeasured to fair value when impaired or upon observable transaction
 
prices.
 
Other Equity Securities.
 
Investment securities classified as other equity securities that do not have
 
readily determinable fair values, are
measured at cost, remeasured to fair value when impaired or upon observable
 
transaction prices and accounted for under the equity
method of accounting and reflected in other assets.
 
Securities Held to Maturity
.
 
Securities held to maturity are valued in accordance with the methodology previously
 
noted in the
caption “Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
 
on a Recurring Basis – Securities Available
 
for Sale.”
 
Loans.
 
The loan portfolio is segregated into categories and the fair value of each loan category is calculated
 
using present value
techniques based upon projected cash flows and estimated discount
 
rates.
 
Pursuant to the adoption of ASU 2016-01,
Recognition and
Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial
 
Liabilities
, the values reported reflect the incorporation of a liquidity discount to meet
the objective of “exit price” valuation.
 
Deposits.
 
The fair value of Noninterest Bearing Deposits, NOW Accounts, Money Market
 
Accounts and Savings Accounts are the
amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity
 
certificates of deposit is estimated using present
value techniques and rates currently offered for deposits of
 
similar remaining maturities.

Subordinated Notes Payable.
 
The fair value of each note is calculated using present value techniques,
 
based upon projected cash
flows and estimated discount rates as well as rates being offered
 
for similar obligations.
Short-Term
 
and Long-Term
 
Borrowings.
 
The fair value of each note is calculated using present value techniques,
 
based upon
projected cash flows and estimated discount rates as well as rates being offered
 
for similar debt.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
 
OF
OPERATIONS
Management’s discussion
 
and analysis (“MD&A”) provides supplemental information, which sets forth
 
the major factors that have
affected our financial condition and results of operations
 
and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements and related notes.
 
The following information should provide a better understanding of
 
the major factors and trends
 
that
affect our earnings performance and financial condition,
 
and how our performance during 2023 compares with prior years.
 
Throughout this section, Capital City Bank Group, Inc., and subsidiaries, collectively,
 
is referred to as “CCBG,” “Company,”
 
“we,”
“us,” or “our.”
CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD
 
-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this MD&A section, contains
 
“forward-looking statements”
 
within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
 
These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about
 
our
beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, estimates and intentions that are
 
subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are
subject to change based on various factors, many of which are beyond
 
our control.
 
The words “may,”
 
“could,” “should,” “would,”
“believe,” “anticipate,”
 
“estimate,” “expect,”
 
“intend,” “plan,”
 
“target,”
 
“vision,” “goal,”
 
and similar expressions are intended to
identify forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
 
Our actual future results may differ materially
from those set forth in our forward-looking statements.
 
Please see the Introductory Note of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q as well
as the Introductory Note and
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
of our 2022 Report on Form 10-K, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports
filed on Form 10-Q, and in our other filings made from time to time with the SEC after
 
the date of this report.
However, other factors besides those listed in our
 
Quarterly Report or in our Annual Report also could adversely affect
 
our results,
and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or
 
uncertainties.
 
Any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf speak only as of the date they are made.
 
We do not undertake
 
to update any forward-looking
statement, except as required by applicable law.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a financial
 
holding company headquartered in Tallahassee,
 
Florida, and we are the parent of our wholly owned subsidiary,
Capital City Bank (the “Bank” or “CCB”).
 
We offer
 
a broad array of products and services through a total of 62 full-service offices
located in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama.
 
We provide a full range of
 
banking services, including traditional deposit and credit
services, mortgage banking, asset management, trust, merchant services,
 
bankcards, securities brokerage services and financial
advisory services, including life insurance products,
 
risk management and asset protection services.
 
Our profitability, like
 
most financial institutions, is dependent to a large extent upon net
 
interest income, which is the difference
between the interest and fees received on interest earning assets, such as loans and
 
securities, and the interest paid on interest-bearing
liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings.
 
Results of operations are also affected by the provision for credit losses, operating
expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and other
 
operating expenses including income taxes, and noninterest
income such as mortgage banking revenues, wealth management fees,
 
deposit fees, and bank card fees.
We have included
 
a detailed discussion of the economic conditions in our markets and our long-term
 
strategic objectives as part of the
MD&A section of our 2022 Form 10-K.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
We present a tangible
 
common equity ratio and a tangible book value per diluted share that, in each case, removes the
 
effect of
goodwill and other intangibles that resulted from merger
 
and acquisition activity. We
 
believe these measures are useful to investors
because it allows investors to more easily compare our capital adequacy
 
to other companies in the industry.
 
The generally accepted
accounting principles (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP reconciliation for
 
each quarter presented is provided below.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
Results of Operations
Performance Summary.
 
Net income attributable to common shareowners of $14.6 million, or $0.85 per diluted
 
share, for the second
quarter of 2023 compared to $15.0 million, or $0.88 per diluted share,
 
for the first quarter of 2023, and $8.7 million, or $0.51 per
diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, net income attributable to common shareowners totaled
$29.5 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, compared to net income of $17.2
 
million, or $1.01 per diluted share, for the same period of
2022.
 
Net Interest Income.
 
Tax-equivalent net
 
interest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $40.1 million, compared
 
to $40.5
million for the first quarter of 2023, and $28.4 million for the second quarter
 
of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the
decrease reflected higher deposit interest expense and a lower level of
 
interest income from overnight funds, partially offset by higher
loan interest due to loan growth and higher interest rates.
 
For the first six months of 2023, tax-equivalent net interest income totaled
$80.6 million compared to $53.2 million for the same period of 2022.
 
The increases over both prior year periods were driven by
strong loan growth and higher interest rates across a majority of our
 
earning assets.
Provision and Allowance for Credit
 
Losses.
 
We recorded
 
a provision for credit losses of $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2023
compared to $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2023 and $1.5 million
 
for the second quarter of 2022.
 
The decrease in the provision
compared to the first quarter of 2023 was primarily attributable to a lower
 
level of loan growth and a decrease in net loan charge-offs.
 
For the first six months of 2023, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $5.3
 
million compared to $1.5 million for the same period
of 2022.
 
The release of reserves held for pandemic-related losses favorably impacted
 
our provision in 2022. At June 30, 2023, the
allowance represented 1.05% of HFI loans compared to 1.01% at March 31, 2023,
 
and 0.98% at December 31, 2022.
 
Noninterest Income.
 
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $22.9 million compared
 
to $22.2 million for the first
quarter of 2023 and $24.9 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
The $0.7 million increase over the first quarter of 2023 reflected an
increase in other income of $1.4 million, wealth management fees of $0.2 million,
 
deposit fees of $0.1 million, and bankcard fees of
$0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking
 
revenues of $1.1 million.
 
The increase in other income was
attributable to a $1.4 million gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights.
 
The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was
attributable to a lower gain on sale margin. For the first six months
 
of 2023, noninterest income totaled $45.1 million compared
 
to
$50.7 million for the same period of 2022 with the $5.6 million decrease primarily
 
attributable to lower mortgage banking revenues of
$5.2 million and wealth management fees of $2.4 million, partially offset
 
by a $2.3 million increase in other income. The decrease in
mortgage banking revenues was attributable to a lower gain on sale margin.
 
The decrease in wealth management fees was driven by a
decrease in insurance commissions due to the sale of large policies in 2022.
 
We discuss noninterest
 
income in further detail below.
Noninterest Expense.
 
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $42.5 million compared
 
to $40.5 million for the first
quarter of 2023 and $40.5 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the $2.1 million increase was
primarily due to an increase in other expense of $2.8 million that was partially offset
 
by a $0.8 million decrease in compensation
expense.
 
The unfavorable variance in other expense reflected a $1.8 million gain from the sale of a banking
 
office in the first quarter
of 2023.
 
Further, the second quarter of 2023 includes a non-routine
 
consulting expense of $0.8
 
million related to our core processing
system outsourcing contract negotiation.
 
For the first six months of 2023, noninterest expense totaled $83.0 million compared
 
to
$79.7 million for the same period of 2022 with the $3.3 million increase
 
attributable to an increase in other expense of $1.6 million,
occupancy expense of $1.4 million, and compensation expense of $0.3 million.
 
The increase in other expense over both prior year
periods was primarily related to the previously mentioned consulting payment
 
of $0.8 million and increases in pension plan expense
(non-service-related component), FDIC insurance fees, and loan servicing (for
 
residential loans).
 
We discuss noninterest expense
 
in
further detail below.
 
Financial Condition
Earning Assets.
 
Average earning assets totaled
 
$3.975 billion for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $87.9 million, or 2.2%,
from the first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $57.9 million, or 1.4%, from
 
the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
The decrease from both prior
periods was attributable to lower deposit balances.
 
The mix of earning assets continues to improve as overnight funds are being
utilized to fund loan growth.
 
Loans.
 
Average loans HFI increased
 
$75.3 million, or 2.9%, over the first quarter of 2023 and $218.3 million, or
 
9.0%, over the
fourth quarter of 2022.
 
Period end loans increased $30.1 million, or 1.1%, over the first quarter of 2023
 
and $141.8 million, or 5.6%,
over the fourth quarter of 2022. Compared to both prior periods, the growth was primarily
 
in the residential real estate and commercial
real estate categories and was partially offset by lower indirect auto
 
and home equity loan balances.

Credit Quality
.
 
Credit quality metrics remained strong for the quarter.
 
Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate)
totaled $6.6 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $4.6 million at March 31, 2023
 
and $2.7 million at December 31, 2022.
 
At June
30, 2023, nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets equaled 0.15%,
 
compared to 0.10% at March 31, 2023 and 0.06% at
December 31, 2022.
 
Nonaccrual loans totaled $6.6 million at June 30, 2023, a $2.0 million increase
 
over March 31, 2023 and a $4.3
million increase over December 31, 2022.
 
The increase was primarily due to the addition of one large residential loan
 
($1.1 million)
to nonaccrual status which was adequately secured and reserved for.
 
Further, classified loans totaled $15.0 million at June
 
30, 2023, a
$2.8 million increase over March 31, 2023 and a $4.4 million decrease from
 
December 31, 2022.
 
Deposits
.
 
Average total
 
deposits were $3.720 billion for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $97.8 million,
 
or 2.6%, from the
first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of $83.5 million, or 2.2%, from the fourth quarter
 
of 2022.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the
decreases were primarily attributable to lower noninterest bearing and savings
 
balances, primarily offset by higher money market
balances.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease in NOW account balances reflected the
 
seasonal decline in our public
funds balances.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, the increase in NOW accounts reflected higher
 
average public funds balances
which began to build in December 2022 and affect the
 
average comparison.
 
Capital
.
 
At June 30, 2023, we were well-capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio
 
of 15.95% and a tangible common equity
ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) of 7.61% compared to 15.53%
 
and 7.37%, respectively,
 
at March 31, 2023 and 15.52% and
6.79%, respectively, at December
 
31, 2022.
 
At June 30, 2023, all of our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the threshold to be
 
well-
capitalized under the Basel III capital standards.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents our single largest source of earnings
 
and is equal to interest income and fees generated by earning
assets less interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities.
 
This information is provided on a “taxable equivalent”
 
basis to reflect
the tax-exempt status of income earned on certain loans and state and local
 
government debt obligations.
 
We provide an analysis of
our net interest income including average yields and rates in Table
 
I on page 45.
Tax-equivalent net
 
interest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $40.1 million, compared
 
to $40.5 million for the first quarter
of 2023, and $28.4 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease reflected higher deposit
interest expense and a lower level of interest income from overnight funds, partially
 
offset by higher loan interest due to loan growth
and higher interest rates.
 
For the first six months of 2023, tax-equivalent net interest income totaled $80.6 million
 
compared to $53.2
million for the same period of 2022.
 
The increases over both prior year periods were driven by strong loan growth
 
and higher interest
rates across a majority of our earning assets.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
35
Our net interest margin for the second quarter of 2023 was 4.05%,
 
an increase of one basis point over the first quarter of 2023 and an
increase of 118 basis points over the second quarter
 
of 2022.
 
For the month of June 2023, our net interest margin was 4.06%.
 
For the
first six months of 2023, our net interest margin was 4.04%, an increase
 
of 133 basis points over the same period of 2022.
 
The
increase compared to all prior periods reflected a combination of higher
 
interest rates and loan growth, partially offset by a higher cost
of deposits.
 
For the second quarter of 2023, our cost of funds was 51 basis points, an increase of
 
16 basis points over the first quarter
of 2023 and 41 basis points over the second quarter of 2022.
 
Our total cost of deposits (including noninterest bearing accounts)
 
was
43 basis points, 26 basis points, and 3 basis points, respectively,
 
for the same periods.
Provision for Credit Losses
We recorded
 
a provision for credit losses of $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared
 
to $3.1 million for the first quarter
of 2023 and $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
The decrease in the provision compared to the first quarter of 2023 was
primarily attributable to a lower level of loan growth and a decrease in net loan
 
charge-offs.
 
For the first six months of 2023, we
recorded a provision for credit losses of $5.3 million compared to $1.5 million for
 
the same period of 2022.
 
The release of reserves
held for pandemic-related losses favorably impacted our provision in 2022.
 
We discuss the allowance
 
for credit losses further
below. For more information
 
on charge-offs and recoveries, see Note 3 – Loans
 
Held for Investment and Allowance for Credit Losses.
 
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $22.9 million
 
compared to $22.2 million for the first quarter of 2023 and
$24.9 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
The $0.7 million increase over the first quarter of 2023 reflected an increase in other
income of $1.4 million, wealth management fees of $0.2 million, deposit fees of
 
$0.1 million, and bankcard fees of $0.1 million,
partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking revenues of
 
$1.1 million.
 
The increase in other income was attributable to a $1.4
million gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights.
 
The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was attributable to a lower
 
gain
on sale margin. Compared to the second quarter of 2022,
 
the $2.0 million decrease in noninterest income reflected decreases in
mortgage banking revenues of $3.2 million, wealth management fees of $0.3
 
million, deposit fees of $0.1 million, and bank card fees
of $0.2 million, partially offset by an increase in other income
 
of $1.8 million.
 
The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was
attributable to a lower gain on sale margin.
 
The increase in other income was primarily related to a $1.4 million gain from
 
the sale of
mortgage servicing rights.
 
For the first six months of 2023, noninterest income totaled $45.1 million compared to $50.7 million
 
for
the same period of 2022 with the $5.6 million decrease primarily attributable
 
to lower mortgage banking revenues of $5.2 million and
wealth management fees of $2.4 million, partially offset by
 
a $2.3 million increase in other income.
 
The decrease in mortgage
banking revenues was attributable to a lower gain on sale margin.
 
The decrease in wealth management fees was driven by a decrease
in insurance commissions due to the sale of large policies in 2022.
 
The increase in other income was primarily due to a $1.4 million
gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights, and increases in miscellaneous income
 
of $0.4 million, loan servicing fees of $0.2
million, and miscellaneous loan fees of $0.1 million.
Noninterest income represented 36.38% of operating revenues (net interest
 
income plus noninterest income) in the second quarter of
2023
 
compared to 35.52% in the first quarter of 2023 and 46.78% in the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months
 
of 2023,
noninterest income represented 35.95% of operating revenues compared
 
to 48.89% for the same period of 2022.
 
The table below reflects the major components of noninterest income.

Significant components of noninterest income are discussed in more
 
detail below.
Deposit Fees
.
 
Deposit fees for the second quarter of 2023
 
totaled $5.3
 
million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 1.7%, over the first
quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $0.1 million, or 2.2%, from the second quarter
 
of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, deposit
fees totaled $10.6 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.7%, from
 
the same period of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023,
the increase reflected higher overdraft fees.
 
The decrease from both prior year periods was attributable to lower
 
service charge and
ATM
 
fees.
Bank Card Fees
.
 
Bank card fees for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $3.8 million, an increase of $0.1
 
million, or 1.8%, over the
first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $0.2 million, or 5.9%, from the
 
second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, bank
card fees totaled $7.5 million, a decrease of $0.3
 
million, or 3.5%, from the same period of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of
2023,
 
the increase reflected one more day of processing. Compared to both prior periods, the decline
 
reflected lower debit card usage
related to lower consumer spending.
Wealth
 
Management Fees
.
 
Wealth management fees
 
include trust fees through Capital City Trust (i.e., managed
 
accounts and
trusts/estates), retail brokerage fees through Capital City Investments (i.e.,
 
investment, insurance products, and retirement accounts),
and financial advisory fees through Capital City Strategic Wealth
 
(i.e., including the sale of life insurance, risk management and asset
protection services).
 
Wealth management
 
fees for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $4.1 million, an increase of $0.
 
2
 
million, or
5.6%, over the first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $0.3 million, or 5.8%,
 
from the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months
of 2023, wealth management fees totaled $8.1 million, a decrease of
 
$2.4 million, or 22.9%, from the same period of 2022.
 
The
decrease reflected lower insurance commission revenues due to the sale of large
 
policies in 2022.
 
Mortgage Banking Revenues.
Mortgage banking revenues totaled $5.8 million for the second quarter
 
of 2023, compared to $7.0
million for the first quarter of 2023 and $9.1 million for the second quarter
 
of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, revenues totaled
$12.8 million compared to $18.0 million for the same period of 2022.
 
The decrease in mortgage banking revenues compared to all
prior periods was attributable to lower rate lock volume and gain on sale margin
 
.
 
We provide a detailed
 
overview of our mortgage
banking operation, including a detailed break-down of mortgage banking
 
revenues, mortgage servicing activity,
 
and warehouse
funding within Note 4 – Mortgage Banking Activities in the Notes to Consolidated
 
Financial Statements.
 
Other
.
 
Other income totaled $3.8 million for the second quarter of 202
 
3
 
compared to $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2023
 
and
$2.0 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, other income totaled $6.1 million compared to
 
$3.8
million for the same period of 2022.
 
The increase over all prior periods was primarily due to a $1.4 million gain from
 
the sale of
mortgage servicing rights.
 
Higher miscellaneous income of $0.4 million, loan servicing fees of $0.2 million,
 
and miscellaneous loan
fees of $0.1 million also contributed to the increase for the six-month period.

Noninterest Expense
 
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2023 totaled $42.5 million
 
compared to $40.5 million for the first quarter of 2023 and
$40.5 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the $2.1 million increase was primarily due to an
increase in other expense of $2.8 million that was partially offset by
 
a $0.8 million decrease in compensation expense.
 
The
unfavorable variance in other expense reflected a $1.8 million gain from
 
the sale of a banking office in the first quarter of 2023.
 
Further, the second quarter of 2023
 
included a $0.8 million expense related to a consulting engagement to assist in negotiating a multi-
year contract for the outsourcing of our core processing system, a higher
 
expense for advertising and travel/entertainment totaling $0.3
million, and a $0.2 million expense related to our VISA (class B shares) swap.
 
Partially offsetting these increases was a $0.3 million
gain related to our SERP.
 
The decrease in compensation expense was primarily attributable to a $0.5
 
million decrease in stock-based
compensation expense and a $0.2 million decrease in other associate benefit
 
expense.
 
Compared to the second quarter of 2022, the $2.0 million increase in noninterest
 
expense reflected a $1.8 million increase in other
expense and occupancy expense of $0.7 million, partially offset
 
by a decrease in compensation expense of $0.5 million.
 
For the first
six months of 2023, noninterest expense totaled $83.0 million compared
 
to $79.7 million for the same period of 2022 with the $3.3
million increase attributable to an increase in other expense of $1.6 million,
 
occupancy expense of $1.4 million, and compensation
expense of $0.3 million.
 
The increase in other expense over both prior year periods was primarily related
 
to the previously mentioned
consulting payment of $0.8 million made in the second quarter of 2023 and
 
increases in pension plan expense (non-service-related
component), FDIC insurance fees (rate increase), and loan servicing
 
(for residential loans).
 
The aforementioned gain from the sale of
a banking office in the first quarter of 2023 partially offset
 
these increases for the six-month period comparison.
 
The addition of four
new banking offices since mid/late 2022 and higher property/equipment
 
insurance premiums drove the increase in occupancy expense
for both prior period comparisons.
 
The favorable variance in compensation expense versus the second quarter of 2022
 
was primarily
due to a $0.7 million decrease in pension plan expense (service cost) that was partially
 
offset by a $0.3 million increase in associate
insurance expense which reflected an increase in premiums.
 
The slight unfavorable variance in compensation expense versus the six-
month period of 2022 reflected an increase in salary expense of $1.0
 
million (primarily the addition of staffing in our new markets),
associate insurance expense of $0.3 million, and stock-based compensation
 
of $0.3 million that was partially offset by a $1.4 million
decrease in pension plan expense (service cost).
The table below reflects the major components of noninterest expense.

Significant components of noninterest expense are discussed in more detail
 
below.
Compensation
.
 
Compensation expense totaled $24.9 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared
 
to $25.6 million for the first
quarter of 2023 and $25.4
 
million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
The $0.7 million decrease from the first quarter of 2023 reflected a
$0.1 million decrease in salary expense and a $0.6 million decrease in associate benefit
 
expense.
 
The decrease in associate benefit
expense was primarily due to a decrease in stock-based compensation
 
expense.
 
Compared to the second quarter of 2022, the $0.5
million decrease was primarily due to a $0.7 million decrease in pension
 
plan expense (service cost) that was partially offset by a $0.3
million increase in associate insurance expense.
 
The decline in pension plan expense (service cost) was generally due to a lower
benefit obligation which reflected an increased level of retirements in 2022.
 
The increase in associate insurance expense reflected
higher premiums at our annual renewal.
 
For the first six months of 2023, compensation expense totaled $50.5 million
 
compared to $50.2 million for the same period of 2022
with the $0.3 million increase attributable to an increase in salary expense of
 
$1.0 million (primarily the addition of staffing in our
new markets) that was partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in associate benefit
 
expense, primarily pension plan expense (service
cost) due to an increased level of retirements in 2022.
 
Occupancy
.
 
Occupancy expense totaled $6.8
 
million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to $6.8
 
million for the first quarter of
2023
 
and $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, occupancy expense totaled $13.6 million
compared to $12.2 million for the same period of 2022.
 
The addition of four new banking offices since mid/late 2022
 
and higher
property/equipment insurance premiums drove the increase in occupancy
 
expense for both prior year comparisons.
 
Other
.
 
Other expense totaled $10.8 million for the second quarter of 2023
 
compared to $8.1 million for the first quarter of 2023 and
$9.0 million for the second quarter of 2022.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the $2.7 million decrease reflected a $1.8 million
gain from the sale of a banking office in the first quarter of 2023.
 
Further, the second quarter of 2023 included a $0.8 million
 
expense
related to a consulting engagement to assist in negotiating a multi-year
 
contract for the outsourcing of our core processing system, a
higher expense for advertising and travel/entertainment totaling $0.3
 
million, and a $0.2 million expense related to our VISA (class B
shares) swap.
 
Partially offsetting these increases was a $0.3 million gain
 
related to our SERP.
 
The increase in other expense over
both prior year periods was primarily related to the previously mentioned consulting
 
payment of $0.8 million made in the second
quarter of 2023 and increases in pension plan expense (non-service-related
 
component), FDIC insurance fees, and loan servicing (for
residential loans).
 
The aforementioned gain from the sale of a banking office in the first quarter
 
of 2023 partially offset these
increases for the six-month period comparison.
 
Our operating efficiency ratio (expressed as noninterest
 
expense as a percentage of the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income
plus noninterest income) was 67.55%
 
for the second quarter of 2023 compared to 64.48% for the first quarter of 2023
 
and 75.96% for
the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, this ratio was 66.02% compared to 76.73% for
 
the same period of 2022.
Income Taxes
We realized income
 
tax expense of $3.5 million (effective rate of 19.6%) for the second
 
quarter of 2023 compared to $4.1 million
(effective rate of 21.7%) for the first quarter of 2023 and $2.2
 
million (effective rate of 19.4%) for the second quarter of 2022.
 
For the
first six months of 2023, we realized income tax expense of $7.7 million (effective
 
rate of 20.6%) compared to $4.4 million (effective
rate of 19.6%) for the same period of 2022. The decrease in our effective
 
tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 reflected tax benefit
accrued from an investment in a solar tax credit equity fund. Absent discrete items, we
 
expect our annual effective tax rate to
approximate 20-21% for 2023.
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Average earning
 
assets totaled $3.975 billion for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $87.9 million, or
 
2.2%, from the first
quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $57.9 million, or 1.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
The decrease from both prior periods was
attributable to lower deposit balances (see below –
Deposits
).
 
The mix of earning assets continues to improve as overnight funds are
being utilized to fund loan growth.
Investment Securities
Average investments
 
decreased $20.4 million, or 1.9%, from the first quarter of 2023
 
and decreased $37.2 million, or 3.4%, from the
fourth quarter of 2022.
 
Our investment portfolio represented 26.3% of our average earning assets for the second
 
quarter of 2023
compared to 26.2% for the first quarter of 2023 and 26.8% for the fourth
 
quarter of 2022.
 
For the remainder of 2023, we will continue
to monitor our overall liquidity position and allow cash flow from
 
the investment portfolio to run-off to overnight funds.
 
39
The investment portfolio is a significant component of our operations and, as such,
 
it functions as a key element of liquidity and
asset/liability management.
 
Two types of classifications are approved
 
for investment securities which are Available
 
-for-Sale (“AFS”)
and Held-to-Maturity (“HTM”).
 
At June 30, 2023, $386.2 million, or 37.5%, of our investment portfolio was classified
 
as AFS, and
$641.4 million, or 62.3%, classified as HTM.
 
The average maturity of our total portfolio at June 30, 2023 was 3.07 years compared
 
to
3.34 years at March 31, 2023 and 3.57 years at December 31, 2022.
 
The duration of our investment portfolio at June 30, 2023 was
2.76 years.
 
Additional information on unrealized gains/losses in the AFS and HTM portfolios is provided
 
in Note 2 – Investment
Securities.
We determine
 
the classification of a security at the time of acquisition based on how the purchase will affect
 
our asset/liability strategy
and future business plans and opportunities.
 
We consider multiple
 
factors in determining classification, including regulatory capital
requirements, volatility in earnings or other comprehensive income,
 
and liquidity needs.
 
Securities in the AFS portfolio are recorded
at fair value with unrealized gains and losses associated with these securities recorded
 
net of tax, in the accumulated other
comprehensive income component of shareowners’ equity.
 
HTM securities are acquired or owned with the intent of holding them
 
to
maturity.
 
HTM investments are measured at amortized cost.
 
We do not
 
trade, nor do we presently intend to begin trading investment
securities for the purpose of recognizing gains and therefore we do not maintain
 
a trading portfolio.
At June 30, 2023, there were 917 positions (combined AFS and HTM)
 
with unrealized losses totaling $84.2 million. 86 of these
positions are U.S. Treasuries and carry the full faith
 
and credit of the U.S. Government.
 
705 were U.S. government agency securities
issued by U.S. government sponsored entities. The remaining 126 positions
 
(municipal securities and corporate bonds) have a credit
component. At June 30, 2023, corporate debt securities had
 
an allowance for credit losses of $19,000 and municipal securities had an
allowance of $5,000.
 
At June 30, 2023, all CMO, MBS, SBA, U.S. Agency,
 
and U.S. Treasury bonds held were AAA rated.
 
Loans HFI
Average loans
 
HFI increased $75.3 million, or 2.9%, over the first quarter of 2023 and $218.3 million,
 
or 9.0%, over the fourth quarter
of 2022.
 
Period end loans increased $30.1 million, or 1.1%, over the first quarter of 2023 and
 
$141.8 million, or 5.6%, over the fourth
quarter of 2022.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the growth was primarily in the residential real estate
 
and commercial real estate
categories and was partially offset by lower indirect auto
 
and home equity loan balances.
 
Without compromising our credit standards
 
,
 
changing our underwriting standards, or taking on inordinate interest rate risk,
 
we
continue to closely monitor our markets and make minor adjustments as necessary.
Credit Quality
Credit quality metrics remained strong for the quarter.
 
Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate) totaled $6.6
million at June 30, 2023 compared to $4.6 million at March 31, 2023
 
and $2.7 million at December 31, 2022.
 
At June 30, 2023,
nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets equaled 0.15%, compared
 
to 0.10% at March 31, 2023 and 0.06% at December 31,
2022.
 
Nonaccrual loans totaled $6.6 million at June 30, 2023, a $2.0 million increase over March 31, 2023
 
and a $4.3 million increase
over December 31, 2022.
 
The increase was primarily due to the addition of one large residential loan
 
($1.1 million) to nonaccrual
status which was adequately secured and reserved for.
 
Further, classified loans totaled $15.0 million at June 30,
 
2023, a $2.8 million
increase over March 31, 2023 and a $4.4 million decrease from December 31,
 
2022.
 
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the
 
loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount
expected to be collected on the loans.
 
The allowance for credit losses is adjusted by a credit loss provision which is reported in
earnings, and reduced by the charge-off
 
of loan amounts (net of recoveries).
 
Loans are charged off against the allowance when
management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed.
 
Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts
previously charged-off and expected to be charged
 
-off.
 
Expected credit loss inherent in non-cancellable off-balance sheet credit
exposures is provided through the credit loss provision, but recorded
 
as a separate liability included in other liabilities.
Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information,
 
from internal and external sources relating to past
events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
 
Historical loan default and loss experience provides the basis for
the estimation of expected credit losses.
 
Adjustments to historical loss information incorporate management’s
 
view of current
conditions and forecasts.
 
40
At June 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses for HFI loans totaled $28.0
 
million compared to $26.5 million at March 31, 2023 and
$24.7 million at December 31, 2022.
 
Activity within the allowance is provided in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements
 
.
 
The increase in the allowance in 2023 has primarily been driven by loan growth.
 
At June 30, 2023, net charge-offs totaled $0.5
million, a decrease of $1.0 million from the first quarter of 2023, and $0.8 million
 
from the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
At June 30, 2023,
the allowance represented 1.05% of HFI loans compared to 1.01% at March 31, 2023,
 
and 0.98% at December 31, 2022.
At June 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments
 
totaled $3.1 million compared to $2.8 million at March
31, 2023 and $3.0 million at December 31, 2022. The allowance for unfunded
 
commitments is recorded in other liabilities.
Deposits
Average total
 
deposits were $3.720 billion for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $97.8 million, or 2.6%,
 
from the first quarter
of 2023 and a decrease of $83.5 million, or 2.2%, from the fourth quarter
 
of 2022.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the decreases were
primarily attributable to lower noninterest bearing and savings balances,
 
primarily offset by higher money market balances.
 
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the decrease in NOW account balances
 
reflected the seasonal decline in our public funds
balances.
 
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, the increase in NOW accounts reflected higher
 
average public funds balances
which began to build in December 2022 and affect the
 
average comparison.
 
At June 30, 2023, total deposits were $3.789 billion, a decrease of $35.1
 
million, or 0.9%, from March 31, 2023 and $150.5 million, or
3.8%, from December 31, 2022.
 
The June 30, 2023 deposit balance included a $103 million short-term deposit (in the NOW
category) made late in June by a municipal client.
 
Compared to both prior periods, the decreases were primarily attributable to lower
noninterest bearing balances, savings balances, and NOW balances (primarily
 
public funds, excluding the previously mentioned large
municipal client deposit), primarily offset by higher
 
money market balances.
 
For comparison to the prior periods, both the average and period-end
 
balance variances in noninterest bearing and savings balances
generally reflected annual tax payments made by clients in April, continued
 
client spend of stimulus savings, the migration (re-mix) of
balances to an interest-bearing product type (primarily money market
 
accounts), and clients seeking higher yielding investment
products outside of the Bank, including the migration of $13 million in the
 
second quarter of 2023 and $43 million for the first six
months of 2023 to our wealth management division.
 
Repurchase agreement balances averaged $17.9 million for the second quarter
 
of 2023, an increase of $8.5 million over the first
quarter of 2023 and $9.4 million over the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
At June 30, 2023, repurchase agreement balances were $22.6 million
compared to $4.4 million at March 31, 2023 and $6.6 million at December 31, 2022.
 
These balances consist of client operating
deposit accounts that we have secured by various securities we own and
 
are reflected in our balance sheet under short-term
borrowings.
 
We continue
 
to closely monitor our cost of deposits and deposit mix as we manage through the current
 
rising rate environment.
 
MARKET RISK AND INTEREST RATE
 
SENSITIVITY
Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity
Overview.
 
Market risk arises from changes in interest rates, exchange rates,
 
commodity prices, and equity prices.
 
We have risk
management policies designed to monitor and limit exposure to market
 
risk and we do not participate in activities that give rise to
significant market risk involving exchange rates, commodity prices, or
 
equity prices.
 
In asset and liability management activities, our
policies are designed to minimize structural interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk Management.
 
Our net income is largely dependent on net interest income.
 
Net interest income is susceptible to
interest rate risk to the degree that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice
 
on a different basis than interest-earning assets.
 
When
interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly
 
than interest-earning assets in a given period, a significant increase in
market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest
 
income.
 
Similarly, when interest-earning
 
assets mature or reprice more
quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, falling market interest rates could
 
result in a decrease in net interest income.
 
Net interest
income is also affected by changes in the portion of interest-earning
 
assets that are funded by interest-bearing liabilities rather than by
other sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and shareowners’
 
equity.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
41
We have established
 
what we believe to be a comprehensive interest rate risk management policy,
 
which is administered by
management’s Asset Liability Management
 
Committee (“ALCO”).
 
The policy establishes limits of risk, which are quantitative
measures of the percentage change in net interest income (a measure of net
 
interest income at risk) and the fair value of equity capital
(a measure of economic value of equity (“EVE”) at risk) resulting from a hypothetical change
 
in interest rates for maturities from one
day to 30 years.
 
We measure the potential
 
adverse impacts that changing interest rates may have on our short-term
 
earnings, long-
term value, and liquidity by employing simulation analysis through the use of
 
computer modeling.
 
The simulation model captures
optionality factors such as call features and interest rate caps and floors imbedded
 
in investment and loan portfolio contracts.
 
As with
any method of gauging interest rate risk, there are certain shortcomings
 
inherent in the interest rate modeling methodology used by
us.
 
When interest rates change, actual movements in different categories
 
of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, loan
prepayments, and withdrawals of time and other deposits, may deviate
 
significantly from assumptions used in the model.
 
Finally, the
methodology does not measure or reflect the impact that higher rates may have
 
on adjustable-rate loan clients’ ability to service their
debts, or the impact of rate changes on demand for loan and deposit products.
The statement of financial condition is subject to testing for interest rate shock
 
possibilities to indicate the inherent interest rate risk.
 
We prepare
 
a current base case and several alternative interest rate simulations (-400, -300, -200,
 
-100, +100, +200, +300, and +400
basis points (bp)), at least once per quarter, and
 
report the analysis to ALCO, our Market Risk Oversight Committee (“MROC”), our
Enterprise Risk Oversight Committee (“EROC”) and the Board of Directors.
 
We augment our interest rate
 
shock analysis with
alternative interest rate scenarios on a quarterly basis that may include ramps,
 
parallel shifts, and a flattening or steepening of the yield
curve (non-parallel shift).
 
In addition, more frequent forecasts may be produced when interest rates are particularly
 
uncertain or when
other business conditions so dictate.
Our goal is to structure the statement of financial condition so that net interest earnings at risk over
 
12-month and 24-month periods
and the economic value of equity at risk do not exceed policy guidelines
 
at the various interest rate shock levels. We
 
attempt to
achieve this goal by balancing, within policy limits, the volume of floating-rate
 
liabilities with a similar volume of floating-rate assets,
by keeping the average maturity of fixed-rate asset and liability contracts
 
reasonably matched, by managing the mix of our core
deposits, and by adjusting our rates to market conditions on a continuing
 
basis.
 
 
Analysis.
 
Measures of net interest income at risk produced by simulation analysis are
 
indicators of an institution’s short-term
performance in alternative rate environments.
 
These measures are typically based upon a relatively brief period, and do not
necessarily indicate the long-term prospects or economic value of the institution.

The Net Interest Income (“NII”) at Risk position indicates
 
that in the short-term, all rising rate environments will positively impact
 
the
net interest margin of the Company,
 
while declining rate environments
 
will have a negative impact on the net interest margin.
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, these metrics became less favorable in
 
the rising rate scenarios primarily due to loan growth,
which reduced our level of overnight funds and made us slightly less asset sensitive.
 
The converse is applicable in the down rate
scenarios where the metrics became more favorable due to loan growth which
 
increased asset duration and therefore protection against
falling rates.
 
The percent change over the 12-month shock is outside of policy in the down 400 bps
 
scenario, and the percent change
over the 24-month shock is outside of policy in the rates down 300 bps and
 
400 bps scenarios
 
due to our limited ability to lower our
deposit rates relative to the decline in market rate.
 
The measures of equity value at risk indicate our ongoing economic value
 
by considering the effects of changes in interest rates on all
of our cash flows by discounting the cash flows to estimate the present value of
 
assets and liabilities. The difference between these
discounted values of the assets and liabilities is the economic value of equity,
 
which in theory approximates the fair value of our net
assets.

(1) The down 400 bp rate scenario was added in the fourth quarter of 2022.
At June 30, 2023, the economic value of equity was favorable in all rising
 
rate environments and unfavorable in the falling rate
environments. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, EVE metrics were slightly
 
more favorable in the rising and declining rate
environments.
 
EVE is currently in compliance with policy in all rate scenarios as the EVE ratio in each rate scenario
 
exceeds 5.0%.
As the interest rate environment and the dynamics of the economy continue to change,
 
additional simulations will be analyzed to
address not only the changing rate environment, but also the change
 
in mix of our financial assets and liabilities, measured over
multiple years, to help assess the risk to the Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
 
RESOURCES
Liquidity
In general terms, liquidity is a measurement of our ability to meet our
 
cash needs.
 
Our objective in managing our liquidity is to
maintain our ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or repay deposits and
 
other liabilities in accordance with their
terms, without an adverse impact on our current or future earnings.
 
Our liquidity strategy is guided by policies that are formulated and
monitored by our ALCO and senior management, which take into account
 
the marketability of assets, the sources and stability of
funding and the level of unfunded commitments.
 
We regularly evaluate
 
all of our various funding sources with an emphasis on
accessibility, stability,
 
reliability and cost-effectiveness.
 
Our principal source of funding has been our client deposits, supplemented
by our short-term and long-term borrowings, primarily from securities sold under
 
repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased and
FHLB borrowings.
 
We believe that the cash
 
generated from operations, our borrowing capacity and our access to capital resources
 
are
sufficient to meet our future operating capital and funding requirements.
 
At June 30, 2023, we had the ability to generate approximately $1.506 billion
 
(excludes overnight funds position of $285 million) in
additional liquidity through various sources including various federal funds
 
purchased lines, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, the
Federal Reserve Discount Window,
 
and through brokered deposits. We
 
recognize the importance of maintaining liquidity and have
developed a Contingent Liquidity Plan, which addresses various liquidity
 
stress levels and our response and action based on the level
of severity.
 
We periodically test our credit
 
facilities for access to the funds, but also understand that as the severity of the liquidity
level increases that certain credit facilities may no longer be available.
 
We conduct a liquidity
 
stress test on a quarterly basis based on
events that could potentially occur at the Bank and report results to ALCO, our
 
Market Risk Oversight Committee, Risk Oversight
Committee, and the Board of Directors.
 
At June 30, 2023, we believe the liquidity available to us was sufficient
 
to meet our on-going
needs and execute our business strategy.
 
 
We also view our
 
investment portfolio as a liquidity source and have the option to pledge securities in our
 
portfolio as collateral for
borrowings or deposits, and/or to sell selected securities.
 
Additional information on our investment portfolio is provided within
 
Note
2 –
Investment Securities
.
The Bank maintained an average net overnight funds (deposits with banks
 
plus FED funds sold less FED funds purchased) sold
position of $218.9 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared
 
to $361.0 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $469.4 million in
the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
The declining overnight funds position reflected growth in average loans and lower
 
average deposit
balances.
We expect our
 
capital expenditures will be approximately $8.0 million over the next 12 months, which
 
will primarily consist of
construction of new offices, office remodeling,
 
office equipment/furniture, and technology purchases.
 
Management expects that these
capital expenditures will be funded with existing resources without impairing
 
our ability to meet our on-going obligations.
43
Borrowings
Average short
 
-term borrowings totaled $35.7 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to
 
$47.1 million for the first quarter of
2023 and $50.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.
 
The variance compared to both prior periods was primarily attributable to an
increase in repurchase agreement balances (discussed under
Deposits
) and fluctuation in warehouse line borrowings that support our
mortgage banking operations.
 
Additional detail on these warehouse borrowings is provided in Note 4 –
 
Mortgage Banking Activities
in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have issued two
 
junior subordinated deferrable interest notes to our wholly owned
 
Delaware statutory trusts.
 
The first note for
$30.9 million was issued to CCBG Capital Trust I in
 
November 2004, of which $10 million was retired in April 2016.
 
The second
note for $32.0 million was issued to CCBG Capital Trust II
 
in May 2005.
 
The interest payment for the CCBG Capital Trust I
borrowing is due quarterly and adjusts quarterly to a variable rate of three-month
 
CME Term SOFR (secured overnight
 
financing rate)
plus a margin of 1.90%.
 
This note matures on December 31, 2034.
 
The interest payment for the CCBG Capital Trust II borrowing
 
is
due quarterly and adjusts quarterly to a variable interest rate based on three-month
 
CME Term SOFR plus a margin
 
of 1.80%.
 
This
note matures on June 15, 2035.
 
The proceeds from these borrowings were used to partially fund acquisitions.
 
Under the terms of each
junior subordinated deferrable interest note, in the event of default or
 
if we elect to defer interest on the note, we may not, with certain
exceptions, declare or pay dividends or make distributions on our capital
 
stock or purchase or acquire any of our capital stock.
 
During the second quarter of 2020, we entered into a derivative cash
 
flow hedge of our interest rate risk related to our subordinated
debt.
 
The notional amount of the derivative is $30 million ($10 million of the CCBG Capital Trust
 
I borrowing and $20 million of the
CCBG Capital Trust II borrowing).
 
The interest rate swap agreement requires CCBG to pay fixed and receive variable (three-month
CME Term SOFR plus spread)
 
and has an average all-in fixed rate of 2.50% for 10 years.
 
Additional detail on the interest rate swap
agreement is provided in Note 5 – Derivatives in the Consolidated Financial
 
Statements.
Capital
Our capital ratios are presented in the Selected Quarterly Financial Data
 
table on page 32.
 
At June 30, 2023, our regulatory capital
ratios exceeded the threshold to be designated as “well-capitalized”
 
under the Basel III capital standards.
Shareowners’ equity was $420.8 million at June 30, 2023 compared to
 
$411.2 million at March 31, 2023 and $394.0 million at
December 31, 2022.
 
For the first six months of 2023, shareowners’ equity was positively impacted by net income
 
attributable to
common
 
shareowners of $29.5 million, a $4.2 million decrease in the unrealized loss on investment
 
securities, the issuance of stock of
$2.1 million, and stock compensation accretion of $0.5 million.
 
Shareowners’ equity was reduced by common stock dividends of $6.1
million ($0.36 per share), the repurchase of stock of $2.0 million (65,736 shares),
 
net adjustments totaling $1.2 million related to
transactions under our stock compensation plans, and a $0.2 million decrease
 
in the fair value of the interest rate swap related to
subordinated debt.
 
At June 30, 2023, our total risk-based capital ratio was 15.95% compared to 15.53%
 
at March 31, 2023 and 15.52% at December 31,
2022.
 
Our common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 13.02%, 12.68%, and 12.64%, respectively,
 
on these dates.
 
Our leverage ratio was
9.74%, 9.28%, and 9.06%, respectively,
 
on these dates.
 
At June 30, 2023, all our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the threshold to be
designated as “well-capitalized” under the Basel III capital standards.
 
Further, our tangible common equity ratio was 7.61% at June
30, 2023 compared to 7.37% and 6.79% at March 31, 2023 and December
 
31, 2022, respectively.
 
If our unrealized HTM securities
losses of $30.0 million (after-tax) were recognized in accumulated other
 
comprehensive loss, our adjusted tangible capital ratio would
be 6.91%.
Our tangible capital ratio is also impacted by the recording of our unfunded pension
 
liability through other comprehensive income in
accordance with ASC Topic
 
715.
 
At June 30, 2023, the net pension liability reflected in other comprehensive loss was $4.7
 
million
compared to $4.5 million at March 31, 2023 and $4.5 million at December 31,
 
2022.
 
This liability is re-measured annually on
December 31
st
 
based on an actuarial calculation of our pension liability.
 
Significant assumptions used in calculating the liability
include the weighted average discount rate used to measure the present
 
value of the pension liability, the
 
weighted average expected
long-term rate of return on pension plan assets, and the assumed rate of annual compensation
 
increases, all of which will vary when
re-measured.
 
The discount rate assumption used to calculate the pension liability is subject to long
 
-term corporate bond rates at
December 31
st
.
 
These assumptions and sensitivities are discussed in our 2022 Form 10-K “Critical Accounting
 
Policies and
Estimates”.
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We are a party
 
to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks in the normal
 
course of business to meet the financing needs of our
clients.
 
44
At June 30, 2023, we had $775.1 million in commitments to extend credit
 
and $6.3 million in standby letters of credit.
 
Commitments
to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client so long as there is no violation of any
 
condition established in the contract.
 
Commitments generally have 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 drawn upon,
 
the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future
cash requirements.
 
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance
 
of a client to a
third party.
 
We use the same credit policies
 
in establishing commitments and issuing letters of credit as we do for on-balance
 
sheet
instruments.
If commitments arising from these financial instruments continue to require
 
funding at historical levels, management does not
anticipate that such funding will adversely impact our ability to meet our on-going
 
obligations.
 
In the event these commitments
require funding in excess of historical levels, management believes current
 
liquidity, advances available from the
 
FHLB and the
Federal Reserve, and investment security maturities provide a sufficient
 
source of funds to meet these commitments.
Certain agreements provide that the commitments are unconditionally
 
cancellable by the bank and for those agreements no allowance
for credit losses has been recorded.
 
We have recorded
 
an allowance for credit losses on loan commitments that are not
unconditionally cancellable by the bank, which is included in other
 
liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial condition and
totaled $3.1 million at June 30, 2023.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated
 
Financial Statements included in our 2022 Form 10-K.
 
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements
 
in accordance with GAAP and reporting practices applicable to the banking
industry requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
 
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses,
and to disclose contingent assets and liabilities.
 
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
We have identified
 
accounting for (i) the allowance for credit losses, (ii) goodwill,
 
(iii) pension assumptions, and (iv) income taxes as
our most critical accounting policies and estimates in that they are important
 
to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and
they require our subjective and complex judgment as a result of the need to make estimates about
 
the effects of matters that are
inherently uncertain.
 
These accounting policies, including the nature of the estimates and types of
 
assumptions used, are described
throughout this Item 2, Management’s
 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and
 
Part II, Item 7,
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
 
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included
 
in our 2022 Form 10-K.
