Note (1)—Basis of presentation:
(Amounts are in thousands)
Overview and presentation
FB Financial Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. The Company operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, FirstBank (the "Bank"), with 65 full-service branches throughout Tennessee, north Alabama, and north Georgia, and a national mortgage business with office locations across the Southeast, which primarily originates loans to be sold in the secondary market.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto of the Company, have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) interim reporting requirements and general banking industry guidelines, and therefore, do not include all information and notes included in the annual consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and the reported results of operations for the periods then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation without any impact on the reported amounts of net income or shareholders’ equity.
Prior to May 31, 2018, the Company was considered a "controlled company" and was controlled by the Company's Executive Chairman and former majority shareholder, James W. Ayers. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company completed a secondary offering of 3,680,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Company's effective registration statement on Form S-3 whereby James W. Ayers was the seller. As a result of this transaction, the Company ceased to qualify as a "controlled company" as the selling shareholder's ownership was reduced below 50% of the voting power of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Company continues to qualify as an emerging growth company as defined by the "Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act" ("JOBS Act").
Subsequent events
The Company has evaluated, for consideration of recognition or disclosure, subsequent events that occurred through the date of issuance of these financial statements. The Company has determined that there were no other subsequent events other than described below that occurred after June 30, 2019, but prior to the issuance of these financial statements that would have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On August 1, 2019, the Company completed its previously-announced sale of its correspondent mortgage delivery channel. The unrelated third party assumed substantially all of the assets and personnel related to the channel upon execution of the agreement. Along with the sale of the third party origination ("TPO") channel, which closed on June 7, 2019, this completes the mortgage restructuring.
On July 19, 2019, the Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share to be paid on August 16, 2019 to shareholders of record as of August 1, 2019, totaling approximately $2,555.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per common share ("EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under the restricted stock units granted but not yet vested and distributable. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, plus an incremental number of common-equivalent shares computed using the treasury stock method.

Unvested share-based payment awards, which include the right to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents, are considered to participate with common shareholders in undistributed earnings for purposes of computing EPS. Companies that have such participating securities, including the Company, are required to calculate basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. Certain restricted stock awards granted by the Company include non-forfeitable dividend equivalents and are considered participating securities. Calculations of EPS under the two-class method (i) exclude from the numerator any dividends paid or owed on participating securities and any undistributed earnings considered to be attributable to participating securities and (ii) exclude from the denominator the dilutive impact of the participating securities.

Recently adopted accounting policies:
Except as set forth below, the Company did not adopt any new accounting policies that were not disclosed in the Company's 2018 audited consolidated financial statements included on Form 10-K.
Leases
The Company leases certain banking, mortgage and operations locations. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company records leases on the balance sheet in the form of a lease liability for the present value of future minimum payments under the lease terms and a right-of-use asset equal to the lease liability adjusted for items such as deferred or prepaid rent, incentive liabilities, leasehold intangibles and any impairment of the right-of-use asset. In determining whether a contract contains a lease, management conducts an analysis at lease inception to ensure an asset was specifically identified and the Company has control of use of the asset. For contracts determined to be leases entered into after January 1, 2019, the Company performs additional analysis to determine whether the lease should be classified as a finance or operating lease. The Company considers a lease to be a finance lease if future minimum lease payments amount to greater than 90% of the asset's fair value or if the lease term is equal to or greater than 75% of the asset's estimated economic useful life. As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not have any leases that were determined to be finance leases. The Company does not record leases on the consolidated balance sheets that are classified as short term (less than one year). Additionally, the Company has not recorded equipment leases or leases in which the Company is the lessor on the consolidated balance sheets as these are not material to the Company.
At lease inception, the Company determines the lease term by adding together the minimum lease term and all optional renewal periods that it is reasonably certain to renew. This determination is at management's full discretion and is made through consideration of the asset, market conditions, competition and entity based economic conditions, among other factors. The lease term is used in the economic life test and also to calculate straight-line rent expense. The depreciable life of leasehold improvements is limited by the estimated lease term, including renewals.
Operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease beginning when the lease commences. Rent expense and variable lease expense are included in occupancy and equipment expense on the Company's Consolidated statements of income. The Company's variable lease expense include rent escalators that are based on the Consumer Price Index or market conditions and include items such as common area maintenance, utilities, parking, property taxes, insurance and other costs associated with the lease.

There are no residual value guarantees or restrictions or covenants imposed by leases that will impact the Company's ability to pay dividends or cause the Company to incur additional expenses. The discount rate used in determining the lease liability is based upon borrowing rates for what would be obtained by the Company for similar loans as an incremental rate as of the date of commencement or renewal.
Recently adopted accounting principles:
Except as set forth below, the Company did not adopt any new accounting principles that were not disclosed in the Company's 2018 audited consolidated financial statements included on Form 10-K.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The update requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases not considered short term leases. The provisions of the update also include (a) defining direct costs to only include those incremental costs that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been entered into, (b) circumstances under which the transfer contract in a sale-leaseback transaction should be accounted for as the sale of an asset by the seller-lessee and the purchase of an asset by the buyer-lessor, and (c) additional disclosure requirements. The provisions of this update became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements”. ASU No. 2018-10 provides improvements related to ASU No. 2016-02 to provide corrections or improvements to a number of areas within FASB ASC Topic 842 and provides additional and optional transition method to adopt the new lease standard. ASU No. 2018-11 allows entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-11 also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. The amendments in these updates became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019.
FB Financial Corporation elected the optional transition method permitted by ASU 2018-11. Under this method, an entity shall recognize and measure leases that exist at the application date and prior comparative periods are not adjusted. Additionally, the Company elected to adopt the practical expedients allowed under the updates and therefore did not reassess 1) whether any expired or existing contract contain leases, 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, or 3) initial direct costs for any existing leases.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted these updates and recognized a right of use asset ("ROU") and lease liability of $32,545 and $34,876, respectively, and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $1,309, net of deferred taxes of $461, in addition to adjustments to leasehold improvements of $1,022 and a reclassification from a previously-recognized lease intangible asset for $460. The difference between the asset and liability amounts represents lease incentive liabilities, deferred rent and a lease intangible asset that was reclassified to the ROU asset upon adoption. This adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated statements of income and did not have an impact on the Company's cash flows. Disclosures required by the update are presented in Note 7, "Leases" in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities." The amendments in this ASU shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount, which continue to be amortized to maturity. Public business entities were required to prospectively apply the amendments in this ASU to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods. The adoption of this update did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Newly issued not yet effective accounting standards:
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. The new model will require institutions to calculate all probable and estimable losses that are expected to be incurred through the financial asset's entire life through a provision for credit losses, including loans obtained as a result of any acquisition not deemed to be purchased credit deteriorated (PCD).

(Dollar amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

CECL also requires the allowance for credit losses for PCD loans to be determined in a manner similar to that of other financial assets measured at amortized cost; however, the initial allowance will be added to the purchase price rather than recorded as provision expense. The disclosure of credit quality indicators related to the amortized cost of financing receivables will be further disaggregated by year of origination (or vintage). Institutions are to apply the changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to their retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the standard is effective.
ASU 2016-13 will become effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  Management established a CECL implementation working group, which includes the appropriate members of management to evaluate the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on the Company's financial statements and disclosures and determine the most appropriate method of implementing the amendments in this ASU. The working group selected a software vendor and is working on validating the accuracy and completeness of data being used as inputs into the model based on the methodology selected for the Company's identified loan segments. During remainder of 2019, the Company is focused on refining modeling segments and assumptions in addition to finalizing and documenting internal controls and accounting and credit policy elections, building disclosures, and model validation. Parallel processing of our existing allowance for loan losses model with the CECL model will occur during the second half of 2019, depending on how model completion and validation progresses. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this adoption on its financial statements and disclosures and currently expects to record a one-time adjustment to retained earnings to increase the allowance for loan losses, however the magnitude of this adjustment cannot currently be reasonably quantified. Management will disclose the impact on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In December 2018, the OCC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the FDIC approved a final rule to address changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP, including banking organizations’ implementation of CECL. The final rule provides banking organizations the option to phase in over a three-year period the day-one adverse effects on regulatory capital that may result from the adoption of the new accounting standard.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” ASU 2017-04 eliminates step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity will perform only step one of its quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and then recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. An entity will still have the option to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative step one impairment test is necessary. ASU 2017-04 will become effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period, for impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Management does not expect adoption of this standard to have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In June 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-07, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting", which expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Consistent with the accounting for employee share-based payment awards, nonemployee share-based payment awards will be measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments obligated to be issued when the good has been delivered or the service rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied. This ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginnings after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued "Accounting Standards Update 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements." This update is part of the disclosure framework project and eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, requires entities to disclose new information, and modifies existing disclosure requirements. The new disclosure guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this change will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In March 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-01, "Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements", which align the guidance for fair value of the underlying assets by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers in Topic 842 with that of existing guidance. As a result, the fair value of the underlying asset at lease commencement is its cost, reflecting any volume or trade discounts that may apply.

(Dollar amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

However, if there has been a significant lapse of time between when the underlying asset is acquired and when the lease commences, the definition of fair value in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement should be applied. ASU No. 2019-01 also requires lessors within the scope of Topic 942, "Financial Services—Depository and Lending", to present all “principal payments received under leases” within investing activities. The amendments in this update become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this change on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, but it is not expected to have a material impact.
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Financial Instruments (Topic 825): Codification Improvements"  The amendments related to Topic 326 address accrued interest, transfers between classifications or categories for loans and debt securities, recoveries, vintage disclosures, and contractual extensions and renewal options and will become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  The improvements and clarifications related to Topic 815 address partial-term fair value hedges of interest-rate risk, amortization, and disclosure of fair value hedge basis adjustments and consideration of hedged contractually specified interest rate under the hypothetical method and will become effective for the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2020.  The amendments related to Topic 825 contain various improvements to ASU 2016-01, including scope; held-to-maturity debt securities fair value disclosures; and remeasurement of equity securities at historical exchange rates and will become effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.
In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief."  These amendments provide targeted transition relief allowing entities to irrevocably elect the fair value option, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, for certain financial assets (excluding held-to-maturity debt securities) previously measured at amortized cost.  The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.
Note (2)—Mergers and acquisitions:
Atlantic Capital Bank branch acquisition
On April 5, 2019, the Bank completed its previously-announced branch acquisition to purchase 11 Tennessee and three Georgia branch locations (the "Branches") from Atlantic Capital Bank, N.A., a national banking association and a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. (collectively, “Atlantic Capital”) in a transaction valued at $36,790, further increasing market share in existing markets and expanding the Company's footprint to into new locations. Upon consummation, the Branches were merged with and into FirstBank, consolidating three of the purchased branches across the existing bank footprint. Under the terms of the agreement, the Bank assumed $588,877 in deposits at a premium of 6.25% and acquired $374,966 in loans at 99.32% of principal outstanding.
The acquisition of the Branches was accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805 "Business Combinations." Accordingly, the assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company is finalizing the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities assumed and as such, purchase accounting is not yet complete.
Goodwill of $31,396 recorded in connection with the transaction resulted primarily from the purchased deposit premium and has been assigned to the Banking segment.
The Company incurred $3,783 and $4,404 in merger expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, in connection with this transaction.

The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) on a quarterly basis and recorded no OTTI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The Company considers an investment security impaired if the fair value of the security is less than its cost or amortized cost basis. For debt securities, the unrealized losses associated with these investment securities are primarily driven by interest rates and are not due to the credit quality of the securities. The Company currently does not intend to sell those investments with unrealized losses, and it is unlikely that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity.

The Company 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 experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:
Watch.    Loans rated as watch includes loans in which management believes conditions have occurred, or may occur, which could result in the loan being downgraded to a worse rated category. Also included in watch are loans rated as special mention, which have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard.    Loans rated as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so rated have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Also included in this category are loans considered doubtful, which have all the weaknesses previously described and management believes those weaknesses may make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loans not meeting the criteria above are considered to be pass rated loans.

Nonperforming loans include loans that are no longer accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) and loans past due ninety or more days and still accruing interest. Nonperforming loans and impaired loans are defined differently. Some loans may be included in both categories, whereas other loans may only be included in one category.
PCI loans are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. However, these loans are considered to be performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any non-payment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period covered loan loss provision or future period yield adjustments. As such, PCI loans are excluded from past due disclosures presented below. The accrual and/or accretion of interest is discontinued on PCI loans if management can no longer reliably estimate future cash flows on the loan. No PCI loans were classified as nonaccrual at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 as the present value of the respective loan or pool of loans cash flows were considered estimable and probable of collection. Therefore, interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all PCI loans. PCI contractually past due 30-89 days amounted to $5,541 and $3,605 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and an additional $1,178 and $4,076 were contractually past due 90 days or more as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The following tables provide the period-end amounts of loans that are past due thirty to eighty-nine days, past due ninety or more days and still accruing interest, loans not accruing interest and loans current on payments accruing interest by category at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

There were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three or six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms.
The terms of certain other loans were modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 that did not meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring. The modification of these loans involved either a modification of the terms of a loan to borrowers who were not experiencing financial difficulties or a delay in a payment that was considered to be insignificant.
In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed under the company’s internal underwriting policy.

Goodwill is tested annually, or more often if circumstances warrant, for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill values are not recognized in the financial statements. Goodwill impairment of $100 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is related to the goodwill assigned to the third party origination channel in the Mortgage segment, which was sold during the second quarter of 2019. There were no additions or impairment recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Note (7)—Leases:
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 "Leases" (Topic 842) and all subsequent updates that modified topic 842. For the Company, the adoption primarily affected the accounting treatment for operating lease agreements in which the Company is the lessee.
Substantially all the leases for which the Company is the lessee are comprised of real estate for branches, mortgage, and operations locations. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had 43 operating leases with terms greater than one year to 37 years. Leases with initial terms of less than one year are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company elected not to include equipment leases and leases in which the Company is the lessor on the consolidated balance sheets as these are not material.
Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease up to an additional 20 years or more. Certain lease agreements contain provisions to periodically adjust rental payments for inflation. Renewal options that management is reasonably certain to renew are included in the ROU asset and lease liability.

The Company hedges the mortgage servicing rights portfolio with various derivative instruments to offset changes in the fair value of the related mortgage servicing rights. See Note 11, "Derivatives" for additional information on these hedging instruments.
From time to time, the Company enters agreements to sell certain tranches of mortgage servicing rights. Upon consummation of the sale, occasionally the Company continues to subservice the underlying mortgage loans until they can be transferred to the purchaser. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company sold $29,160 of mortgage servicing rights on $2,034,374 of serviced mortgage loans. No material gain or loss was recognized in connection with this transaction. As of June 30, 2019, there were no loans being serviced that related to the bulk sale of mortgage servicing rights. There were no

Note (10)—Commitments and contingencies:
Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates.
Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

In connection with the sale of mortgage loans to third party investors, the Bank makes usual and customary representations and warranties as to the propriety of its origination activities. Occasionally, the investors require the Bank to repurchase loans sold to them under the terms of the warranties. When this happens, the loans are recorded at fair value with a corresponding charge to a valuation reserve. The total principal amount of loans repurchased (or indemnified for) was $2,117 and $3,510 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $1,543 and $2,662 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The Company has established a reserve associated with loan repurchases. This reserve is recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note (11)—Derivatives:
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments as part of its ongoing efforts to manage its interest rate risk exposure as well as the exposure for its customers. Derivative financial instruments are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets line item “Other assets” or “Other liabilities” at fair value in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”
The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (rate-lock commitments). Under such commitments, interest rates for mortgage loans are typically locked in for up to forty-five days with the customer. These interest rate lock commitments are recorded at fair value in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Company also enters into best effort or mandatory delivery forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans to secondary market investors. Gains and losses arising from changes in the valuation of the rate-lock commitments and forward commitments are recognized currently in earnings and are reflected under the line item “Mortgage banking income” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company enters into forward commitments, futures and options contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments as economic hedges to offset the changes in fair value of MSRs. Gains and losses associated with these instruments are included in earnings and are reflected under the line item “Mortgage banking income” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Additionally, the Company enters into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments to help its commercial customers manage their exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with customer contracts, the Company enters into an offsetting derivative contract. The Company manages its credit risk, or potential risk of default by its commercial customers through credit limit approval and monitoring procedures.
The Company also maintains two interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $30,000 used to hedge interest rate exposure on outstanding subordinated debentures included in long-term debt totaling $30,930. Under these agreements, the Company receives a variable rate of interest and pays a fixed rate of interest. The interest rate swap contracts, which mature in June of 2024, are designated as cash flow hedges with the objective of reducing the variability in cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates. These contracts had a negative fair value of $491 at June 30, 2019 and a positive fair value of $721 at December 31, 2018.
In July of 2017, the Company entered into three interest rate swap contracts on floating rate liabilities at the Bank level with notional amounts of $30,000, $35,000 and $35,000 for a period of three, four and five years, respectively. These interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges with the objective of reducing the variability of cash flows associated with $100,000 of FHLB borrowings obtained in conjunction with the Clayton Banks acquisition. During the first quarter of 2018, these swaps were canceled, locking in a tax-adjusted gain of $1,564 in other comprehensive income to be accreted over the three, four and five-year terms of the underlying contracts. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there was $1,223 and $1,436, respectively, remaining in the other comprehensive income to be accreted.
Certain financial instruments, including derivatives, may be eligible for offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets when the “right of setoff” exists or when the instruments are subject to an enforceable master netting agreement, which includes the right of the non-defaulting party or non-affected party to offset recognized amounts, including collateral posted with the counterparty, to determine a net receivable or net payable upon early termination of the agreement. Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments are subject to master netting agreements. The Company has not elected to offset such financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Most derivative contracts with clients are secured by collateral. Additionally, in accordance with the interest rate agreements with derivatives dealers, the Company may be required to post margin to these counterparties. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain derivative counterparties and had collateral posted of $26,832 and $13,904, respectively, against its obligations under these agreements. Cash collateral related to derivative contracts is recorded in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note (12)—Fair value of financial instruments:
FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities according to a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that are derived from assumptions based on management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available under the circumstances.
The hierarchy is broken down into the following three levels, based on the reliability of inputs:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities that are derived from assumptions based on management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
The Company records the fair values of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring and non-recurring basis using the following methods and assumptions:
Investment securities-Investment securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair values for securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar instruments or are determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the pricing relationship or correlation among other benchmark quoted securities. Investment securities valued using quoted market prices of similar instruments or that are valued using matrix pricing are classified as Level 2. When significant inputs to the valuation are unobservable, the available-for-sale securities are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Where no active market exists for a security or other benchmark securities, fair value is estimated by the Company with reference to discount margins for other high-risk securities.

(Dollar amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Loans held for sale-Loans held for sale are carried at fair value. Fair value is determined using current secondary market prices for loans with similar characteristics, that is, using Level 2 inputs.
Derivatives-The fair value of the interest rate swaps are based upon fair values provided from entities that engage in interest rate swap activity and is based upon projected future cash flows and interest rates. Fair value of commitments is based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, and for fixed-rate commitments, the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates is also considered. These financial instruments are classified as Level 2.
Other real estate owned-Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is comprised of commercial and residential real estate obtained in partial or total satisfaction of loan obligations and excess land and facilities held for sale. OREO acquired in settlement of indebtedness is recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or the fair value of the real estate less costs to sell. Fair value is determined on a nonrecurring basis based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers and is adjusted for management’s estimates of costs to sell and holding period discounts. The valuations are classified as Level 3.
Mortgage servicing rights-Servicing rights are carried at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach with various assumptions including expected cash flows, market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing costs, and other factors. As such, mortgage servicing rights are considered Level 3.
Impaired loans-Loans considered impaired under FASB ASC 310, "Receivables", are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Fair value adjustments for impaired loans are recorded on a non-recurring basis as either partial write downs based on observable market prices or current appraisal of the collateral. Impaired loans are classified as Level 3.
The following table contains the estimated fair values and the related carrying values of the Company's financial instruments. Items which are not financial instruments are not included.

Loans considered impaired are reserved for at the time the loan is identified as impaired taking into account the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on changes in market conditions from the time of valuation and management's knowledge of the client and client's business. Other real estate owned acquired in settlement of indebtedness is recorded at fair value of the real estate less estimated costs to sell. Subsequently, it may be necessary to record nonrecurring fair value adjustments for declines in fair value. Any write-downs based on the asset's fair value at the date of foreclosure are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the lending administrative department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry wide statistics.
Fair value option
The Company elected to measure all loans originated for sale at fair value under the fair value option as permitted under ASC 825. Electing to measure these assets at fair value reduces certain timing differences and better matches the changes in fair value of the loans with changes in the fair value of derivative instruments used to economically hedge them.
Net gains of $2,169 and $962 resulting from fair value changes of mortgage loans held for sale were recorded in income during the three and six months months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to $2,076 and $4,197 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The amount does not reflect changes in fair values of related derivative instruments used to hedge exposure to market-related risks associated with these mortgage loans. The change in fair value of both loans held for sale and the related derivative instruments are recorded in Mortgage Banking Income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Election of the fair value option allows the Company to reduce the accounting volatility that would otherwise result from the asymmetry created by accounting for the financial instruments at the lower of cost or fair value and the derivatives at fair value. There were $39,897 and $67,362 of delinquent GNMA loans that had previously been sold at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company determined there not to be a more-than-trivial benefit based on an analysis of interest rates and an assessment of potential reputational risk associated with these loans. As such, the Company did not record any rebooked GNMA loans on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
The Company’s valuation of loans held for sale incorporates an assumption for credit risk; however, given the short-term period that the Company holds these loans, valuation adjustments attributable to instrument-specific credit risk is nominal. Interest income on loans held for sale measured at fair value is accrued as it is earned based on contractual rates and is reflected in loan interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table summarizes the differences between the fair value and the principal balance for loans held for sale measured at fair value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Note (13)—Segment reporting:
The Company and the Bank are engaged in the business of banking and provide a full range of financial services. The Company determines reportable segments based on the significance of the segment’s operating results to the overall Company, the products and services offered, customer characteristics, processes and service delivery of the segments and the regular financial performance review and allocation of resources by the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), the Company’s chief operating decision maker. The Company has identified two distinct reportable segments—Banking and Mortgage. The Company’s primary segment is Banking, which provides a full range of deposit and lending products and services to corporate, commercial and consumer customers. The Company offers full-service conforming residential mortgage products, including conforming residential loans and services through the Mortgage segment utilizing mortgage offices outside of the geographic footprint of the Banking operations. Additionally, the Mortgage segment includes the servicing of residential mortgage loans and the packaging and securitization of loans to governmental agencies. The residential mortgage products and services originated in our Banking footprint and related revenues and expenses are included in our Banking segment. The Company’s mortgage division represents a distinct reportable segment which differs from the Company’s primary business of commercial and retail banking.
The financial performance of the Mortgage segment is assessed based on results of operations reflecting direct revenues and expenses and allocated expenses. This approach gives management a better indication of the operating performance of the segment. When assessing the Banking segment’s financial performance, the CEO utilizes reports with indirect revenues and expenses including but not limited to the investment portfolio, electronic delivery channels and areas that primarily support the banking segment operations. Therefore these are included in the results of the Banking segment. Other indirect revenue and expenses related to general administrative areas are also included in the internal financial results reports of the Banking segment utilized by the CEO for analysis and are thus included for Banking segment reporting. The Mortgage segment utilizes funding sources from the Banking segment in order to fund mortgage loans that are ultimately sold on the secondary market. The Mortgage segment uses the proceeds from loan sales to repay obligations due to the Banking segment.
During the the first quarter of 2019, the Company's Board of Directors approved management's strategic plan to exit its wholesale mortgage delivery channels. On June 7, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its third party origination ("TPO") channel and completed the sale of its correspondent channel on August 1, 2019. The mortgage segment incurred $829 and $1,883 in restructuring and miscellaneous charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 related to these sales.

Our Banking segment provides our Mortgage segment with a warehouse line of credit that is used to fund mortgage loans held for sale. The warehouse line of credit, which eliminated in consolidation, had a prime interest rate of 5.50% and 5.00% as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and further limited based on interest income earned by the Mortgage segment. The amount of interest paid by our Mortgage segment to our Banking segment under this warehouse line of credit is recorded as interest income to our Banking segment and as interest expense to our Mortgage segment, both of which are included in the calculation of net interest income for each segment. The amount of interest paid by our Mortgage segment to our Banking segment under this warehouse line of credit was $3,290 and $4,517 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $5,848 and $9,025 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Note (14)—Minimum capital requirements:
Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action.
Under regulatory guidance for non-advanced approaches institutions, the Bank and Company are required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets. Additionally, under Basel III rules, the decision was made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank and Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
Beginning in 2016, an additional conservation buffer was added to the minimum requirements for capital adequacy
purposes, subject to a three year phase-in period. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the buffer was 2.50% and 1.88%, respectively. The capital conservative buffer was fully phased in on January 1, 2019.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan:
In 2016, the Company adopted an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) under which employees, through payroll deductions, are able to purchase shares of Company common stock. The purchase price is 95% of the lower of the market price on the first or last day of the offering period. The maximum number of shares issuable during any offering period is 200,000 shares and a participant may not purchase more than 725 shares during any offering period (and, in any event, no more than $25,000 worth of common stock in any calendar year). There were zero shares issued under the ESPP during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, there were 10,613 shares and 16,537 shares of common stock issued under the ESPP, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and 2018, there were 2,421,743 and 2,444,428 shares available for issuance under the ESPP, respectively.

ITEM 2 – Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
The following is a discussion of our financial condition at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 12, 2019 (our "Annual Report") and with the accompanying unaudited notes to the consolidated financial statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2019 (this "Report").
Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements
Certain statements contained in this Report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to the Company’s assets business, cash flows, condition (financial or otherwise), credit quality, financial performance, liquidity, short and long-term performance goals, prospects, results of operations, strategic initiatives, the benefits, cost and synergies of the Clayton Banks acquisition, and the timing, benefits, costs and synergies of future acquisitions, disposition and other growth opportunities. These statements, which are based upon certain assumptions and estimates and describe the Company’s future plans, results, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by the use of the words and phrases “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “goal,” “plan,” “potential,” “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “target,” “aim,” “predict,” “continue,” “seek,” “projection” and other variations of such words and phrases and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company’s control. The inclusion of these forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that such expectations, estimates and projections will be achieved. Accordingly, the Company cautions investors that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and that are beyond the Company’s control. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this Report, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements in this Report including, without limitation, the risks and other factors set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under the captions “Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements” and “Risk factors” and periodic and current reports on Form 10-Q and 8-K. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the Company’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this Report, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict their occurrence or how they will affect the Company.
Because of these risks and other uncertainties, our actual results, performance or achievement, or industry results, may be materially different from the anticipated or estimated results discussed in the forward-looking statements in this Report. Our past results of operations are not necessarily indicative of our future results. You should not unduly rely on any forward-looking statements, which represent our beliefs, assumptions and estimates only as of the dates on which they were made, as predictions of future events. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict their occurrence or how they will affect us.
We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Critical accounting policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry.  Within our financial statements, certain financial information contain approximate measurements of financial effects of transactions and impacts at the consolidated balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.  We monitor the status of proposed and newly issued accounting standards to evaluate the impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Our accounting policies, including the impact of newly issued accounting standards, are discussed in further detail in Note 1, "Basis of Presentation," in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual report. Subsequent adoptions are further described in "Part 1. Financial Information - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" of this report.
Overview
We are a bank holding company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. We operate primarily through our wholly owned bank subsidiary, FirstBank, the third largest bank headquartered in Tennessee, based on total assets. FirstBank provides a comprehensive suite of commercial and consumer banking services to clients in select markets in Tennessee, North Alabama, and North Georgia. At June 30, 2019, our footprint included 65 full-service bank branches serving the following Metropolitan Statistical Areas (“MSAs”): Nashville, Chattanooga (including North Georgia), Knoxville, Memphis, Jackson, and Huntsville, Alabama and 16 community markets throughout Tennessee and North Georgia. FirstBank also provides mortgage banking services utilizing its bank branch network and mortgage banking offices strategically located throughout the southeastern United States and a national internet delivery channel.
We operate through two segments, Banking and Mortgage. We generate most of our revenue in our Banking segment from interest on loans and investments, loan-related fees, mortgage originations from mortgage offices within our banking footprint, trust and investment services and deposit-related fees. Our primary source of funding for our loans is customer deposits, and, to a lesser extent, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances, brokered and internet deposits, and other borrowings. We generate most of our revenue in our Mortgage segment from origination fees and gains on sales in the secondary market of mortgage loans that we originate from our mortgage offices outside our Banking footprint and mortgage servicing revenues.
On April 1, 2019, the Company announced its intention to exit its wholesale mortgage operations, comprising the third party origination ("TPO") and correspondent mortgage delivery channels (collectively referred to as "mortgage restructuring"). The exit of the two wholesale channels better aligns the Mortgage segment with our strategic plan and long-term vision for the Company. The exit also allows additional focus on our retail and Consumer Direct origination channels. The sale of TPO channel was completed on June 7, 2019 and subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the sale of correspondent channel was completed on August 1, 2019. In connection with the mortgage restructuring, the Company incurred certain related and miscellaneous expenses of $0.8 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Book value per share equals our total shareholders’ equity as of the date presented divided by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of the date presented. The number of shares of our common stock outstanding was 30,865,636 and 30,683,353 as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and 30,724,532 as of December 31, 2018.

We calculate our risk-weighted assets using the standardized method of the Basel III Framework for all periods, as implemented by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC.

These measures are not measures recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (United States) (“GAAP”), and are therefore considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. See “GAAP reconciliation and management explanation of non-GAAP financial measures” for a reconciliation of these measures to their most comparable GAAP measures.
GAAP reconciliation and management explanation of non-GAAP financial measures
We identify certain financial measures discussed in this Report as being "non-GAAP financial measures." The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Report are adjusted efficiency ratio (tax equivalent basis), tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets and return on average tangible common equity.
In accordance with the SEC's rules, we classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.
The non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this Report should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in our selected historical consolidated financial data may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. You should understand how such other banking organizations calculate their financial measures similar or with names similar to the non-GAAP financial measures we have discussed in our selected historical consolidated financial data when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures. The following reconciliation tables provide a more detailed analysis of these, and reconciliation for, each of non-GAAP financial measures.
 Adjusted efficiency ratio (tax equivalent basis)
The adjusted efficiency ratio (tax equivalent basis) is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain gains (losses), merger, offering and mortgage restructuring-related expenses and other selected items. Our management uses this measure in its analysis of our performance. Our management believes this measure provides a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhances comparability of results with prior periods, as well as demonstrates the effects of significant gains and charges.  The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is the efficiency ratio. Beginning in 2019, the Company changed its presentation of the adjusted efficiency ratio calculation to no longer exclude the change in fair value of MSRs. Prior periods presented below have been revised to reflect this change.

Tangible book value per common share and tangible common equity to tangible assets
Tangible book value per common share and tangible common equity to tangible assets are non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of goodwill and other intangibles used by the Company’s management to evaluate capital adequacy.  Because intangible assets such as goodwill and other intangibles vary extensively from company to company, we believe that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s capital position to other companies.  The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is book value per common share and our total shareholders’ equity to total assets.

Mergers and acquisitions
Atlantic Capital Bank, N.A. Branches
On April 5, 2019, the Bank completed its previously-announced branch acquisition to purchase 11 Tennessee and three Georgia branch locations (the "Branches") from Atlantic Capital Bank, N.A., a national banking association and a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc., a Georgia corporation (collectively, "Atlantic Capital"), further increasing market share in existing markets and expanding the Company's footprint into new locations. After a preliminary purchase price allocation, the branch acquisition added $588.9 million in customer deposits at a premium of 6.25% and $375.0 million in loans. All of the operations of the Branches are included in the Banking segment. We incurred merger costs of $3.8 million and $4.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, in connection with this transaction. See Note 2, “Mergers and acquisitions” in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report for further details regarding the terms and conditions of this acquisition.
Overview of recent financial performance
Results of operation
Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, net income was $18.7 million compared to $22.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Pre-tax income was $25.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared with $29.9 million in the same period in 2018. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.59 and $0.70 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our net income represented a return on average assets (“ROAA”) of 1.30% and 1.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and a return on average equity (“ROAE”) of 10.6% and 14.4% for the same periods. Our ratio of return on average tangible common equity (“ROATE”) in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 14.4% and 19.0%, respectively. Additionally, our ratio of average shareholders’ equity to average assets at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was 12.3% and 13.0%, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, net interest income before provision for loan losses increased to $57.0 million compared to $51.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018, which was attributable to an increase in interest income and expense, partially driven by loan and deposit growth from the acquisition of the Branches, along with, strong organic loan growth and increased interest rates on deposits.
Our net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 4.39% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 4.81% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to the increase in cost of deposits partially offset by an increase in contractual loan yield earned on our loan portfolio.
Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 decreased by $2.8 million to $33.0 million from $35.8 million for the same period in the previous year. The decrease in noninterest income was largely a result of a decrease in mortgage banking income, reflecting a shift in market conditions leading to decreased volume in our two wholesale mortgage delivery channels, which were sold in the mortgage restructuring. Income from our mortgage business was also negatively impacted

51


by a decline in mortgage servicing income during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared with the same period in the previous year.
Noninterest expense increased to $64.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $56.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in noninterest expense was attributed to increases in merger costs and added personnel and operational costs related to our acquisition of the Branches. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2019 also includes $0.8 million in costs related to the mortgage restructuring.
Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018
For the six months ended, June 30, 2019, net income was $38.3 million compared to $41.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Pre-tax income was $50.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with $55.1 million in the same period in 2018. Diluted earnings per common share were $1.21 and $1.33 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our net income represented a ROAA of 1.41% and 1.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and a ROAE of 11.1% and 13.9% for the same periods. Our ratio of average shareholders’ equity to average assets in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 12.7% and 12.9%, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net interest income before provision for loan losses increased to $110.0 million compared to $99.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was attributable to an increase in interest income and expense, primarily driven by loan and deposit growth partially attributed to the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition. Our net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 4.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 4.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to the increase in cost of deposits partially offset by an increase in contractual loan yield earned on our loans held for investment portfolio.
Our net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 4.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 4.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to the increase in cost of deposits partially offset by an increase in contractual loan yield earned on our loan portfolio.
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased by $7.0 million to $62.0 million from $69.0 from the same period in the previous year. The decrease in noninterest income was largely a result of a decrease in mortgage banking income from lower servicing income and interest rate lock commitment volume driven by market conditions and the impact of the mortgage restructuring.
Noninterest expense increased to $119.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $112.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in noninterest expense was attributed to increases in merger costs and added personnel and operational costs related to our growth, including our acquisition of the Branches. Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 also reflects expenses of $1.9 million related to our mortgage restructuring.
Financial condition
Our total assets grew by 15.6% to $5.94 billion at June 30, 2019 as compared to $5.14 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was driven by the acquisition of $640.0 million in assets acquired in the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition, which closed on April 5, 2019. Loans held for investment increased $622.0 million to $4.29 billion at June 30, 2019 compared to $3.67 billion at December 31, 2018, which included $375.0 million in loans acquired in the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition. This increase was partially offset by a decline in mortgage servicing rights of $22.4 million to $66.4 million at June 30, 2019, due to a sale in the first quarter of 2019.
We grew total deposits by $671.1 million to $4.84 billion at June 30, 2019 as compared to $4.17 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase includes $588.9 million of customer deposits acquired in the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition.
Excluding the impact of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Atlantic Capital branch transaction, total assets increased 3.2%, total loans increased 6.7%, and total deposits increased 2.0%, in each case from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019.
Business segment highlights
We operate our business in two business segments: Banking and Mortgage. See Note 13, “Segment Reporting,” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for a description of these business segments.
Banking
Income before taxes decreased by $3.4 million, or 12.2%, in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $24.5 million as compared to $27.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was a result of an increase in net interest income of $5.3 million and an increase in noninterest expense of $8.7 million. The increase in net interest income was a result of our loan growth of $888.7 million in average loan balances partially due to the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition and the continuing strong credit environment and demand in our markets. Noninterest income decreased $0.2 million to

52


$13.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $14.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Noninterest expense increased $8.7 million or 23.6%, primarily due to increases in merger costs related to the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition, which is entirely assigned to the Banking segment, in addition to increases in occupancy and fixed asset expense, and salaries, commissions and employee benefits expenses. Results of our Banking Segment also include mortgage retail footprint pre-tax net contribution was $1.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $1.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Income before taxes from the Banking segment decreased by $0.1 million, or 0.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $52.0 million as compared to $52.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The results were primarily driven by an increase in net interest income of $9.5 million which was partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income of $0.7 million and an increase in noninterest expense. Noninterest expense increased $8.0 million, primarily due to costs associated with our overall growth, including merger costs from the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition and increased salaries, commissions and employee benefits expenses.
Mortgage
Income before taxes from the Mortgage segment decreased $1.5 million to $0.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $1.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Noninterest income decreased $2.6 million to $19.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $21.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, driven by decreased loan servicing income and interest rate lock commitment volume. Interest rate lock commitment volume decreased $155.6 million, or 7.9%, during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decline in volume is attributable to activity in our two wholesale delivery channels, which were sold in the mortgage restructuring. Partially offsetting the decrease in volume from the wholesale channels were increases in volume from both our Consumer Direct and retail mortgage delivery channels, which were driven by lower interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2019. We expect total interest rate lock commitment volume to decline further in the second half of 2019 as a result of the completed mortgage restructuring. Interest rate lock commitments in the pipeline at June 30, 2019 were $608.7 million compared with $318.7 million at December 31, 2018 and $597.6 million at June 30, 2018.
Noninterest income from the Mortgage segment was also negatively impacted by a reduction in mortgage servicing income of $3.6 million to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in fair value of MSRs of $8.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019, which was partially offset by an increase of $6.8 million in income from fair value changes of derivative instruments. The decrease in servicing income during the three months ended June 30, 2019 when compared to the same period in the previous year was partially the result of having lower volume in MSRs during the current period after the sale of $29.2 million of MSRs, which was completed during the first quarter of 2019.
Noninterest expense decreased $0.9 million to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $19.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease is attributable to a reduction in mortgage operations personnel and interest rate lock volume due to the mortgage restructuring.
Income before taxes from the Mortgage segment declined $4.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 to a loss of $1.4 million as compared to income of $3.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Noninterest income decreased $6.3 million to $35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $42.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 which was driven by lower interest rate lock commitment volume. Interest rate lock commitment volume decreased $919.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $3,185.1 million as compared to $4,105.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was driven by changing market conditions and the impact of the mortgage restructuring.
Noninterest income from the Mortgage segment also included a decline in mortgage servicing income of $3.8 million to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compare to the same period in the previous year. This decrease included a decrease in fair value of mortgage servicing rights of $16.7 million resulting in a loss of $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 when compare to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in fair value from the MSR portfolio was partially offset by an increase in fair value changes in derivative hedging instruments of $14.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $7.5 million from the same period in the previous year. The decrease in servicing income during the six months ended June 30, 2019 when compared to the same period in the previous year was partially the result of having lower average volume in MSRs during the current period due to the sale of $29.2 million of MSRs completed during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $37.2 million and $38.5 million, respectively. This decrease is due to a decline in production and mortgage servicing expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we sold $29.2 million of mortgage servicing rights. No material gain or loss was recognized in connection with this

53


sale in the six months ended June 30, 2019. There were no sales of mortgage servicing rights during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Results of operation
Throughout the following discussion of our operating results, we present our net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratio on a fully tax-equivalent basis. The fully tax-equivalent basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, which enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.
The adjustment to convert certain income to a tax-equivalent basis consists of dividing tax exempt income by one minus the combined federal and blended state statutory income tax rate of 26.06% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
Net interest income
Our net interest income is primarily affected by the interest rate environment and by the volume and the composition of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We utilize net interest margin (“NIM”) which represents net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, divided by average interest-earning assets, to track the performance of our investing and lending activities. We earn interest income from interest, dividends and fees earned on interest-earning assets, as well as from amortization and accretion of discounts on acquired loans. Our interest-earning assets include loans, time deposits in other financial institutions and securities available for sale. We incur interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, including interest-bearing deposits, borrowings and other forms of indebtedness as well as from amortization of premiums on purchased deposits. Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, advances from the FHLB, repurchase agreements and subordinated debt.
Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018
Net interest income increased 10.7% to $57.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $51.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income increased $5.6 million to $57.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $51.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in tax-equivalent net interest income in the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by increased volume on loans held for investment, offset by increased volume and rates on deposits, both partially driven by the product mix acquired from the Branches.
Interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $72.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $59.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $12.7 million. The two largest components of interest income are loan income and investment income. Loan income consists primarily of interest earned on our loans held for investment portfolio and secondarily, our loans held for sale. Investment income consists primarily of interest earned on our investment portfolio made up of both taxable and tax-exempt securities. Interest income on loans held for investment, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased $13.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $63.3 million from $50.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to volume driven by increased average loan balances of $888.7 million. Partially offsetting the increase in interest income on loans held for investment was a decline in total tax-equivalent yield. The tax-equivalent yield on loans held for investment was 6.07%, down 5 basis points from the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in yield was primarily due to decreases in loan fees and accretion on purchased loans which yielded 0.29% and 0.20%, respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared with 0.46% and 0.23%, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2018. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in contractual interest rates which yielded 5.57% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 5.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Also included in the loan yield are nonaccrual interest collections and syndicated loan fee income which contributed 1 and 0 basis points, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 3 and 3 basis points, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Our NIM, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 4.39% during the three months ended June 30, 2019 from 4.81% in the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarily a result of increased cost of funds and decreased loan fees, partly offset by an increase in contractual loan yields. Accretion on purchased loans contributed 16 and 18 basis points to the NIM for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
 
Additionally, nonaccrual interest collections and syndicated loan fees contributed 1 and 0 basis points, respectively, to the NIM for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 2 and 2 basis points, respectively, to the NIM for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, interest income on loans held for sale decreased $1.3 million to $3.1 million compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 due to a decrease in volume contributing a decline of $0.9 million and a decrease in yields contributing decline of $0.4 million. The average balance of loans held for sale decreased $81.3 million to $281.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $362.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease includes the impact of the sale of the TPO mortgage channel and we expect it to decline further in the second half of 2019 with the completion of the mortgage restructuring during the third quarter of 2019. For additional information on the sale, see "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Noninterest income".
For the three months ended June 30, 2019 investment income, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to $5.1 million from $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 due primarily to increased volume. The average balance in the investment portfolio for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $678.8 million compared to $599.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest expense was $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $7.2 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The primary driver for the increase in total interest expense is the increase in interest expense on deposits of $7.6 million to $13.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was largely attributed to money market deposits and customer time deposits which increased to $4.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $2.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The $2.2 million increase in money market interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributed to increased rates with a secondary driver of increased volume. The average rate on money markets rose to 1.48%, up 56 basis points from the three months ended June 30, 2018. Average money market balances increased $216.4 million to $1.22 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $1.01 billion for the same period in the previous year. The $4.7 million increase in customer time deposit interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributed to increased volume with a secondary driver of increased interest rates. Average customer time deposits increased $556.7 million from $628.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $1,185.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Average rate on customer time deposits increased 109 basis points from 1.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 to 2.13% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This growth was the result of a time deposit campaign implemented during the second half of 2018 and to a lesser extent the $147.1 million in customer time deposits acquired from the Branches. Slightly increasing the time deposit interest expense was the increase in rates of brokered and internet time deposits offset by a decrease in volume on brokered and internet time deposits. The average rate on brokered and internet time deposits rose to 2.21%, up 57 basis points from the three months ended June 30, 2018. Average brokered and internet time deposit balances decreased $19.5 million to $56.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $75.7 million for the same period in the previous year. The result was an overall increase in time deposit interest expense of 102 basis points to

55


2.13% during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The overall growth of our deposits came with a higher cost of total deposits of 1.14% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 0.62% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Offsetting the increase in total deposit interest expense was a decrease in interest expense on total borrowings, which decreased $0.4 million to $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $1.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by decreased volume in FHLB advances, partially offset by increased rates on FHLB advances. The cost of total borrowings increased to 2.49% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from 2.15% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Average FHLB advances decreased $121.4 million to $131.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $253.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease in average FHLB advances was primarily due to paying down higher rate advances with additional liquidity obtained from the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition.

Includes investments in premises and equipment, other real estate owned, interest receivable, MSRs, core deposit and other intangibles, goodwill and other miscellaneous assets.
(4)
Interest income includes the effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments using a U.S. federal income tax rate and, where applicable, state income tax to increase tax-exempt interest income to a tax-equivalent basis. The net taxable-equivalent adjustment amounts included in the above table were $0.5 million and $0.4 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
(5)
The NIM is calculated by dividing annualized net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, by average total earning assets.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018
Net interest income increased 10.1% to $110.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $99.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income increased $10.2 million to $110.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $100.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in tax-equivalent net interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by increased volume in loans held for investment offset by an increase in deposit volume and rates, both partially driven by the product mix acquired from the Branches.
Interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, was $138.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $114.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, an increase of $23.9 million. The two largest components of interest income are loan income and investment income. Loan income consists primarily of interest earned on our loans held for investment portfolio and secondarily, our loans held for sale. Investment income consists primarily of interest earned on our investment portfolio made up of both taxable and tax-exempt securities. Interest income on loans held for investment, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased $24.6 million to $121.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $96.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 primarily due to increased loan volume driven by growth in average loan balances of $708.8 million. A secondary driver of the increase in interest income on loans held for investment were increased rates. The tax-equivalent yield on loans held for investment was 6.20%, up 18 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in yield was primarily due to increase in contractual interest rates which yielded 5.63% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with 5.33% in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Offsetting this increase was a decrease in loan fees and accretion on purchased loans which yielded 0.35% and 0.20%, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared with 0.41% and 0.22%, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Also included in the loan yield are nonaccrual interest collections and syndicated loan fee income which contributed 1 and 1 basis points, respectively, for the six ended June 30, 2019 and 4 and 2 basis points, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The components of our loan yield, a key driver to our NIM for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, were as follows:

Our NIM, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 4.50% during the six months ended June 30, 2019 from 4.73% in the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily a result of increased cost of funds and decreased loan fees, partly offset by an increase in contractual loan yields. Accretion on purchased loans contributed 16 and 17 basis points to the NIM for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Additionally, nonaccrual interest collections and syndicated loan fees contributed 1 and 1 basis points, respectively, to the NIM for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 3 and 1 basis points, respectively, to the NIM for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, interest income on loans held for sale decreased $3.1 million to $5.4 million compared to $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 due to a decrease in volume contributing a decline of $3.3 million slightly offset by an increase in rates contributing $0.1 million. The average balance of loans held for sale decreased $149.5 million to $248.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $398.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease includes the impact of the sale of the TPO mortgage channel and we expect it to decline further in the second half of 2019 with the completion of the mortgage restructuring during the third quarter of 2019. For additional information on the sale, see "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Noninterest income".
For the six months ended June 30, 2019 investment income, on a tax-equivalent basis, increased to $10.2 million from $8.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 driven by increased volume. The average balance in the investment portfolio for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $668.2 million compared to $582.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Interest expense was $27.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $13.7 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The primary driver for the increase in total interest expense is the increase in interest expense on deposits of $14.4 million to $25.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was largely attributed to money market and customer time deposits which increased to $8.5 million and $11.6 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $4.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The $4.3 million increase in money market interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributed to increased rates with a secondary driver of increased volume. The average rate on money markets rose to 1.49%, up 63 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2018. Average money market balances increased $157.2 million to $1,147.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $990.5 million for the same period in the previous year. The $8.5 million increase in customer time deposit interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributed to increased volume with a secondary driver of higher rates. Average customer time deposits increased $497.6 million from $623.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $1,120.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The average rate on customer time deposits increased 110 basis points from 0.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 to 2.09% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This growth was the result of a time deposit campaign implemented during the second half of 2018 and to a lesser extent the $147.1 million in time deposits acquired in the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition. Slightly increasing the time deposit interest expense was the increase in rates of brokered and internet time deposits offset by a decrease in volume on brokered and internet time deposits. The average rate on brokered and internet time deposits rose to 2.12%, up 50 basis points from the six months ended June 30, 2018. Average brokered and internet time deposit balances decreased $6.0 million to $73.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $79.9 million for the same period in the previous year as we replace with lower cost funding sources. The result was an overall increase in time deposit interest expense of 103 basis points to 2.09% during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The overall growth of our deposits came with a higher cost of total deposits of 1.14% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to 0.59% for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Offsetting the increase in total deposit interest expense was a decrease in interest expense on total borrowings, which decreased $0.7 million to $2.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by decreased volume in FHLB advances, partially offset by increased rates on FHLB advances. The cost of total borrowings increased to 2.55% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from 2.14% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Average FHLB advances decreased $107.7 million to $124.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $232.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease in average FHLB advances was primarily due to paying down higher rate advances with additional liquidity obtained from the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition.

Average loans are gross, including nonaccrual loans and overdrafts (before deduction of allowance for loan losses). Loan fees of $3.0 million and $3.7 million and accretion of $2.1 million and $1.9 million, nonaccrual interest collections of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, and syndicated loan fee income of $0 and $0.2 million are included in interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
(2)
Interest income includes the effects of the tax-equivalent adjustments to increase tax-exempt interest income to a tax-equivalent basis.

As discussed above, the $13.1 million increase in loans held for investment tax-equivalent interest income during three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018 was the primary driver of the $5.6 million increase in tax-equivalent net interest income. The increase in loan interest income was primarily driven by an increase in average loans held for investment of $888.7 million, or 27.0%, to $4.18 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $3.29 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which was largely attributable to strong organic loan growth, the acquisition of $375.0 million in loans acquired from the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition as of April 5, 2019 and continued favorable economic conditions in many of our markets. The increase in loan income was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $7.2 million due to an overall increase in rates and increased volume of customer deposits.

(2)
Interest income includes the effects of the tax-equivalent adjustments to increase tax-exempt interest income to a tax-equivalent basis.

As discussed above, the $24.6 million increase in interest income on loans held for investment during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to June 30, 2018 was the primary driver of the $10.2 million increase in tax-equivalent net interest income. The increase in loan interest income was driven by an increase in average loans held for investment of $708.8 million, or 21.9%, to $3.95 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to $3.24 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was largely attributable to strong organic loan growth, the acquisition of $375.0 million in loans acquired from the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition and continued favorable economic conditions in many of our markets. The increase in loan income was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $13.7 million driven by increases in rates and volume of customer deposits slightly offset by decreased volume of FHLB advances.
Provision for loan losses
The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense is an amount which, in the judgment of management, is necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is believed to be adequate to meet the inherent risks of losses in our loan portfolio. Factors considered by management in determining the amount of the provision for loan losses include the internal risk rating of individual credits, historical and current trends in net charge-offs, trends in nonperforming loans, trends in past due loans, trends in the market values of underlying collateral securing loans and the current economic conditions in the markets in which we operate. The determination of the amount is complex and involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity.
Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018
Our provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.9 million as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease is primarily attributable to our strong credit quality. The provision for the three months ended June 30, 2019 includes $0.1 million of subsequent deterioration on PCI loans from acquisitions completed in 2015 and 2017. Net charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $0.6 million compared with net recoveries in the previous year of $0.9 million.




62


Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018
Our provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.3 million as compared to $1.4 million in the same period in the previous year. The increase is primarily attributable to our loan growth and also included $0.5 million of subsequent deterioration on PCI loans during the six months ended June 30, 2019 related to our previously completed acquisitions. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $1.1 million compared with net recoveries in the previous year of $0.9 million.
Noninterest income
Our noninterest income includes gains on sales of mortgage loans, fees on mortgage loan originations, loan servicing fees, hedging results, fees generated from deposit services, investment services and trust income, gains and losses on securities, other real estate owned and other assets and other miscellaneous noninterest income.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018
Noninterest income was $33.0 million for three months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 7.8%, as compared to $35.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Noninterest income to average assets (excluding any gains or losses from sale of securities) was 2.3% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 3.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Mortgage banking income primarily includes origination fees on mortgage loans including fees and realized gains and losses on the sale of mortgage loans, unrealized change in fair value of mortgage loans and derivatives, and mortgage servicing fees. Mortgage banking income is initially driven by the recognition of interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) at fair value at inception of the IRLCs. This is subsequently adjusted for changes in the overall interest rate environment offset by derivative contracts entered into to mitigate the interest rate exposure. Upon sale of the loan, the net fair value gain is reclassified as a realized gain on sale. Mortgage banking income was $24.5 million and $28.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Bank’s mortgage operations had sales of $1,258.7 million which generated a sales margin of 1.67%. This compares to 1,706.9 million and 1.58% for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Mortgage banking income from gains on sale and related fair value changes amount to $24.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $24.7 million for the same period in the previous year. This activity was driven by a decrease in interest rate lock volume of $155.6 million, or 7.9%, to $1,820.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The volume decrease was the result of market conditions and decreased production from our two wholesale delivery channels included in the mortgage restructuring. The decline in the two wholesale channels was partially offset by increased volume in our Consumer Direct and retail channels, which benefited from lower interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
The exit of our two wholesale channels is expected to provide regulatory capital relief resulting from the lower capitalization of MSRs and also produce lower overall interest rate lock commitment volume and consequently, mortgage banking income than produced historically.  We incurred mortgage restructuring and other related costs of $0.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Income from mortgage servicing was $4.1 million and $5.6 million for three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This decrease was driven by a $1.6 million decline in mortgage servicing income due to the sale of $29.2 million of MSRs in the first quarter of 2019 and a decline in fair value on MSRs and related hedging activity of $3.8 million and $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Mortgage banking income attributable to our Banking segment from retail operations within the Bank footprint was $5.5 million and $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and mortgage banking income attributable to our Mortgage segment was $19.1 million and $21.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Service charges on deposit accounts include analysis and maintenance fees on accounts, per item charges, non-sufficient funds and overdraft fees. Service charges on deposit accounts were $2.3 million, a increase of $0.3 million, or 13.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase is attributable to our 25.3% growth in average deposits which is partially attributable to our branch acquisition from Atlantic Capital Bank, which added $588.9 million in deposits as of April 5, 2019.
ATM and interchange fees include debit card interchange, ATM and other consumer fees. These fees increased $0.4 million to $3.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase is also attributable to our growth in deposits and increased volume of transactions.
Investment services and trust income includes fees for discretionary portfolio management and trust administration for individuals and businesses.

Gain on securities for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $52 thousand compared to a loss on securities for the three months ended June 30, 2018 of $42 thousand. Activity is typically driven by sales activity within our available-for-sale securities portfolio in addition to change in fair value of equity securities with readily determinable market values. Sales activity is attributable to management taking advantage of portfolio structuring opportunities to maintain comparable interest rates and maturities and to fund current loan growth in addition to overall asset liability management.

our manufactured housing portfolio and overall growth partially attributable to the branch acquisition from Atlantic Capital Bank.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018
Noninterest income was $62.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 10.2%, as compared to $69.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Noninterest income to average assets (excluding any gains or losses from sale of securities) was 2.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 3.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Mortgage banking income was $45.5 million and $55.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Bank’s mortgage operations had sales of $2,224.9 million which generated a sales margin of 1.66%. This compares to $3,389.7 million and 1.49% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Mortgage banking income from gains on sale and related fair value changes amount to $42.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $48.1 million for the same period in the previous year.

Interest rate lock volume during the six months ended June 30, 2019 reflects the mortgage restructuring and overall changes in market conditions. The decline in interest rate lock volume also decreased due to overcapacity and slow-down of the mortgage market and overall compressing margins, which began to improve during the second quarter of 2019 with lowered interest rates bumping production. Changes in market conditions have also shifted the mix of interest rate lock commitments by purpose to 53.8% purchase for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from 64.5% for the same period in the prior year.
Income from mortgage servicing was $8.8 million and $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, offset by a decline in fair value on MSRs and related hedging activity of $5.7 million and $3.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018
Noninterest expense increased by $7.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $64.1 million as compared to $56.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase resulted primarily from the $3.6 million increase in salaries, commissions and employee benefits expense and a $3.8 million increase in merger and conversion expenses.
Salaries, commissions and employee benefits expense was the largest component of noninterest expenses representing 59.1% and 61.0% of total noninterest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, salaries and employee benefits expense increased $3.6 million, or 10.3%, to $37.9 million as compared to $34.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was mainly driven by our employee growth and increased equity compensation benefits. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased

66


2.3% to 1,437 employees at June 30, 2019 from 1,405 employees at June 30, 2018 due to increases associated with our growth and branches acquired from Atlantic Capital partially offset by reductions resulting from the mortgage restructuring. The decrease in mortgage personnel resulted in a $1.4 million decrease in mortgage salaries, commissions and employee benefits expense during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to same period for 2018.
Salaries and employee benefits expense also reflects $2.1 million and $1.9 million accrued for equity compensation grants during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These grants comprise restricted stock units that were granted in conjunction with our 2016 IPO to all full-time associates and extended to new associates each year, in addition to an accrual related to annual stock-based performance grants.
Occupancy and equipment expense includes fees related to leased property operations and repairs and maintenance. Occupancy and equipment expense in the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $4.3 million, an increase of $0.8 million, compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which was attributable to an increase in lease costs and property taxes partially attributable to our branch acquisition from Atlantic Capital Bank.
Legal and professional fees includes litigation expense, accounting, audit and tax service fees, professional licenses and fees, quality control and consulting fees. Legal and professional fees were $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Data processing costs include computer expenses and data processing fees for authorization, clearing, settlement and other various processing activity. Data processing costs increased $0.5 million, or 23.6%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was attributable to our growth and increased volume of transaction processing.
Merger costs amounted to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Merger costs during the three months ended June 30, 2019 include costs associated with our Atlantic Capital branch acquisition that was completed on April 5, 2019.
Amortization of core deposits and other intangibles represents amortization of core deposit intangible assets acquired through acquisitions and other miscellaneous intangibles. Amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets totaled $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase is due to the additional core deposit intangible related to the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition, which had a preliminary fair value of $10.8 million at the April 5, 2019 closing date.
Regulatory fees and deposit insurance assessments decreased slightly during the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $0.6 million compared to $0.7 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

The current period included mortgage restructuring charges of $0.8 million offset by a decline in miscellaneous other expenses. The prior period included $0.7 million in offering expenses related to the completion of a $151.8 million follow-on secondary offering during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018
Noninterest expense increased by $6.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $119.2 million as compared to $112.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. This increase resulted primarily from a $3.2 million increase in salaries, commissions and employee benefits expense, a $3.2 increase in merger and conversion expenses and overall increase in expenses due to our growth, including the Atlantic Capital branch acquisition completed during the second quarter of 2019.

Occupancy and equipment expense in the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $8.0 million, an increase of $1.1 million, compared to $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was attributable to an increase in lease costs and property taxes, including added leases from our acquisition of the the Branches.
Legal and professional fees were $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decrease is due to our increased leverage in internal legal resources.
Data processing costs increased $0.9 million, or 20.5%, to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was attributable to our growth and volume of transaction processing.

Merger costs during the six months ended June 30, 2019 include costs associated with our Atlantic Capital branch acquisition completed during the second quarter of 2019. Merger costs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were related to the merger with the Clayton Banks that closed on July 31, 2017.
Amortization of core deposits and other intangibles represents amortization of core deposit intangible assets acquired through acquisitions and other miscellaneous intangibles. Amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets totaled $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase is due to the additional core deposit intangible related to the acquisition of the Branches, which had a preliminary fair value of $10.8 million at the April 5, 2019 closing date. The Company amortizes the core deposit intangibles under sum of the years digits method, which accelerates amortization at the beginning of its estimated useful life and reduces over time.
Regulatory fees and deposit insurance assessments remained relatively flat during the six months ended June 30, 2019 at $1.2 million compared to $1.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Software license and maintenance fees for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $1.1 million compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Advertising costs for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $5.2 million, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease is attributable to decreased advertising from our mortgage business.

The prior period included $0.7 million in offering expenses related to the completion of a $151.8 million follow-on secondary offering during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Efficiency ratio
The efficiency ratio is one measure of productivity in the banking industry. This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue. We calculate this ratio by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. For an adjusted efficiency ratio, we exclude certain gains, losses and expenses we do not consider core to our business.
Our efficiency ratio was 71.2% and 64.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 69.3% and 66.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our adjusted efficiency ratio, on a tax-equivalent basis, was 65.9% and 63.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and 65.4% and 65.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See “GAAP reconciliation and management explanation of non-GAAP financial measures” in this Report for a discussion of the adjusted efficiency ratio.

The primary differences from the enacted rates are applicable state income taxes reduced for non-taxable income and additional deductions for equity-based compensation upon the distribution of RSUs.

Financial condition
The following discussion of our financial condition compares the six months ended June 30, 2019 with the year ended December 31, 2018.
Total assets
Our total assets were $5.94 billion at June 30, 2019.  This compares to total assets of $5.14 billion as of December 31, 2018. This increase was largely attributable to an increase of $622.0 million in loans held for investment driven by strong demand for our loan products in our markets and the success of our growth initiatives, including $375.0 million of loans acquired through our branch acquisition from Atlantic Capital Bank.
Loan portfolio
Our loan portfolio is our most significant earning asset, comprising 72.2% and 71.4% of our total assets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Our strategy is to grow our loan portfolio by originating quality commercial and consumer loans that comply with our credit policies and that produce revenues consistent with our financial objectives. Currently, our loan portfolio is diversified relative to industry concentrations across the various loan portfolio categories. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our outstanding loans to the broader healthcare industry made up less than 5% of our total outstanding loans and are spread across nursing homes, assisted living facilities, outpatient mental health and substance abuse centers, home health care services, and medical practices within our geographic markets. Our overall lending approach is primarily focused on providing credit to our customers directly rather than purchasing loan syndications and loan participations from other banks (collectively, “Participated loans”). At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, loans held for investment included approximately $103.2 million and $88.8 million, respectively, related to participated loans. We believe our loan portfolio is well-balanced, which provides us with the opportunity to grow while monitoring our loan concentrations.
Loans
Loans increased $622.0 million, or 17.0%, to $4.29 billion as of June 30, 2019 as compared to $3.67 billion as of December 31, 2018. Our loan growth during the six months ended June 30, 2019 has been composed of increases of $122.2 million, or 14.1%, in commercial and industrial loans, $109.2 million, or 22.1%, in owner occupied commercial real estate loans, $221.9 million, or 31.7%, in non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans, $168.2 million, or 20.5%, in residential real estate loans and $30.6 million, or 13.4%, in consumer and other loans, respectively. These increases were offset by a decrease of $30.1 million, or 5.4%, in construction loans. The increase in loans during the six months ended June 30, 2019 is attributable to our Atlantic Capital branch acquisition, continued strong demand in our metropolitan markets, and continued favorable economic conditions throughout much of our geographic footprint.

Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a number of borrowers engaged in similar activities which would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of loans other than the categories of loans disclosed in the table above.
Banking regulators have established thresholds of less than 100% for concentrations in construction lending and less than 300% for concentrations in commercial real estate lending that management monitors as part of the risk management process. The construction concentration ratio is a percentage of the outstanding construction and land development loans to total risk-based capital. The commercial real estate concentration ratio is a percentage of the outstanding balance of non-owner occupied commercial real estate, multifamily, and construction and land development loans to total risk-based capital. Management strives to operate within the thresholds set forth above.
When a company's ratios are in excess of one or both of these guidelines, banking regulators generally require an increased level of monitoring in these lending areas by management.
The table below shows concentration ratios for the Bank and Company as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which both were within the stated thresholds.

Loan categories
The principal categories of our loans held for investment portfolio are discussed below:
Commercial and industrial loans.    We provide a mix of variable and fixed rate commercial and industrial loans. Our commercial and industrial loans are typically made to small and medium-sized manufacturing, wholesale, retail and service businesses for working capital and operating needs and business expansions, including the purchase of capital equipment and loans made to farmers relating to their operations. This category also includes loans secured by manufactured housing receivables. Commercial and industrial loans generally include lines of credit and loans with maturities of five years or less. The loans are generally made with operating cash flows as the primary source of repayment, but may also include collateralization by inventory, accounts receivable, equipment and personal guarantees. We plan to continue to make commercial and industrial loans an area of emphasis in our lending operations in the future. As of June 30, 2019, our commercial and industrial loans comprised $989.3 million, or 23% of loans, compared to $867.1 million, or 24% of loans, as of December 31, 2018.

Commercial real estate owner-occupied loans.    Our commercial real estate owner-occupied loans include loans to finance commercial real estate owner occupied properties for various purposes including use as offices, warehouses, production facilities, health care facilities, retail centers, restaurants, churches and agricultural based facilities. Commercial real estate owner-occupied loans are typically repaid through the ongoing business operations of the borrower, and hence are dependent on the success of the underlying business for repayment and are more exposed to general economic conditions. As of June 30, 2019, our owner occupied commercial real estate loans comprised $602.7 million, or 14% of loans, compared to $493.5 million, or 13%, of loans, as of December 31, 2018.
Commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans.    Our commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans include loans to finance commercial real estate non-owner occupied investment properties for various purposes including use as offices, warehouses, health care facilities, hotels, mixed-use residential/commercial, manufactured housing communities, retail centers, multifamily properties, assisted living facilities and agricultural based facilities. Commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans are typically repaid with the funds received from the sale of the completed property or rental proceeds from such property, and are therefore more sensitive to adverse conditions in the real estate market, which can also be affected by general economic conditions. As of June 30, 2019, our non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans comprised $922.2 million, or 22%, of loans, compared to $700.2 million, or 19% of loans, as of December 31, 2018.
Residential real estate 1-4 family mortgage loans.    Our residential real estate 1-4 family mortgage loans are primarily made with respect to and secured by single family homes, including manufactured homes with real estate, which are both owner-occupied and investor owned. We intend to continue to make residential 1-4 family housing loans at a similar pace, so long as housing values in our markets do not deteriorate from current prevailing levels and we are able to make such loans consistent with our current credit and underwriting standards. First lien residential 1-4 family mortgages may be affected by unemployment or underemployment and deteriorating market values of real estate. As of June 30, 2019, our residential real estate mortgage loans comprised $689.0 million, or 16% of loans, compared to $555.8 million, or 16%, of loans as of December 31, 2018.
Residential line of credit loans.    Our residential line of credit loans are primarily revolving, open-end lines of credit secured by 1-4 family residential properties. We intend to continue to make residential line of credit loans if housing values in our markets do not deteriorate from current prevailing levels and we are able to make such loans consistent with our current credit and underwriting standards.
Residential line of credit loans may be affected by unemployment or underemployment and deteriorating market values of real estate. Our home equity loans as of June 30, 2019 comprised $218.0 million or 5% of loans compared to $190.5 million, or 5%, of loans as of December 31, 2018.
Multi-family residential loans.    Our multi-family residential loans are primarily secured by multi-family properties, such as apartments and condominium buildings. These loans may be affected by unemployment or underemployment and deteriorating market values of real estate. Our multifamily loans as of June 30, 2019 comprised $82.9 million, or 2% of loans, compared to $75.5 million, or 2%, of loans as of December 31, 2018.
Construction loans.    Our construction loans include commercial construction, land acquisition and land development loans and single-family interim construction loans to small- and medium-sized businesses and individuals. These loans are generally secured by the land or the real property being built and are made based on our assessment of the value of the property on an as-completed basis. We expect to continue to make construction loans at a similar pace so long as demand continues and the market for and values of such properties remain stable or continue to improve in our markets. These loans can carry risk of repayment when projects incur cost overruns, have an increase in the price of building materials, encounter zoning and environmental issues, or encounter other factors that may affect the completion of a project on time and on budget. Additionally, repayment risk may be negatively impacted when the market experiences a deterioration in the value of real estate. As of June 30, 2019, our construction loans comprised $526.0 million, or 12% of loans compared to $556.1 million, or 15% of loans as of December 31, 2018.
Consumer and other loans.    Consumer and other loans include consumer loans made to individuals for personal, family and household purposes, including car, boat and other recreational vehicle loans and personal lines of credit. Consumer loans are generally secured by vehicles and other household goods. The collateral securing consumer loans may depreciate over time. The company seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting standards. Other loans also include loans to states and political subdivisions in the U.S. These loans are generally subject to the risk that the borrowing municipality or political subdivision may lose a significant portion of its tax base or that the project for which the loan was made may produce inadequate revenue. None of these categories of loans represents a significant portion of our loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2019, our consumer and other loans comprised $259.5 million, or 6% of loans, compared to $228.9 million, or 6% of loans as of December 31, 2018.

Loan maturity and sensitivities
The following tables present the contractual maturities of our loan portfolio as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Loans with scheduled maturities are reported in the maturity category in which the payment is due. Demand loans with no stated maturity and overdrafts are reported in the “due in 1 year or less” category. Loans that have adjustable rates are shown as amortizing to final maturity rather than when the interest rates are next subject to change. The tables do not include prepayment or scheduled repayments.

Asset quality
In order to operate with a sound risk profile, we focus on originating loans that we believe to be of high quality. We have established loan approval policies and procedures to assist us in maintaining the overall quality of our loan portfolio. When delinquencies in our loans exist, we rigorously monitor the levels of such delinquencies for any negative or adverse trends. From time to time, we may modify loans to extend the term or make other concessions, including extensions or interest rate modifications, to help a borrower with a deteriorating financial condition stay current on their loan and to avoid foreclosure. Furthermore, we are committed to collecting on all of our loans and which can result in us carrying higher nonperforming assets. We believe this practice leads to higher recoveries in the long-term.
Nonperforming assets
Our nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans, other real estate owned and other miscellaneous non-earning assets. Nonperforming loans are those on which the accrual of interest has stopped, as well as loans that are contractually 90 days past due on which interest continues to accrue. Generally, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the full collection of principal or interest is in doubt or when the payment of principal or interest has been contractually 90 days past due, unless the obligation is both well secured and in the process of collection. In our loan review process, we seek to identify and proactively address nonperforming loans.
Purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loans are considered past due or delinquent when the contractual principal or interest due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement remains unpaid after the due date of the scheduled payment. However, these loans are considered to be performing, even though they may be contractually past due, as any non-payment of contractual principal or interest is considered in the periodic re-estimation of expected cash flows and is included in the resulting recognition of current period covered loan loss provision or future period yield adjustments. The accrual of interest is discontinued on PCI loans if management can no longer reliably estimate future cash flows on the loan. No PCI loans were classified as nonaccrual at June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 as the carrying value of the respective loan or pool of loans cash flows were considered estimable and probable of collection. Therefore, interest revenue, through accretion of the difference between the carrying value of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all PCI loans. PCI contractually past due 30-89 days amounted to $5.5 million and $3.6 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and an additional $1.2 million and $4.1 million were contractually past due 90 days or more as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $35.3 million and $31.4 million, respectively, in nonperforming assets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, other real estate owned included $7.7 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of excess land and facilities resulting from our acquisitions. Other nonperforming assets, including other repossessed non-real estate, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 amounted to $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
If our nonperforming assets would have been current during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we would have recorded an additional income of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, compared to $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We had net interest recoveries of $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, recognized on loans that had previously been charged off or classified as nonperforming in previous periods.

Total nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans were 0.43% as of June 30, 2019 as compared to 0.46% as of December 31, 2018. Our coverage ratio, or our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of our nonperforming loans, was 165.3% as of June 30, 2019 as compared to 173.0% as of December 31, 2018.
Management has evaluated the aforementioned loans and other loans classified as nonperforming and believes that all nonperforming loans have been adequately reserved for in the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2019. Management also continually monitors past due loans for potential credit quality deterioration. Loans 30-89 days past due were $11.2 million at June 30, 2019, as compared to $9.2 million at December 31, 2018.
Neither the credit portion nor any other portion of the fair value discount is reflected in the reported allowance for loan and lease losses. However, as of June 30, 2019, the allowance included $1.3 million in reserves related to subsequent deterioration on loans acquired in our previous mergers and acquisitions. No deterioration subsequent to the acquisition date has been recorded related to the loans acquired from the Branches as of June 30, 2019. Under acquisition accounting rules set forth in ASC 805, "Business Combinations," preliminary fair value estimates are subject to change within up to a one-year measurement period to finalize fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed and finalize the overall purchase price allocation. As such, we may record adjustments to preliminary estimates related to our acquisition of the Branches through December 31, 2019.
Other real estate owned consists of properties acquired through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure in addition to excess facilities held for sale. These properties are carried at the lower of cost or fair market value based on appraised value less estimated selling costs. Losses arising at the time of foreclosure of properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Reductions in the carrying value subsequent to acquisition are charged to earnings and are included in “Gain (loss) on sales or write-downs of other real estate owned” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Other real estate owned with a cost basis of $1.1 million and $2.0 million were sold as of three and six months ended June 30, 2019, resulting in a net gain of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
Other real estate owned with a cost basis of $1.1 million and $2.7 million were sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, resulting in a net gain of $23 thousand and a net loss of $0.2 million, respectively.

Classified loans
Accounting standards require us to identify loans, where full repayment of principal and interest is doubtful, as impaired loans. These standards require that impaired loans be valued at the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or using one of the following methods: the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the underlying collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. We have implemented these standards in our quarterly review of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and identify and value impaired loans in accordance with guidance on these standards. As part of the review process, we also identify loans classified as watch, which have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention.
Loans totaling $68.8 million and $66.5 million were classified as substandard under our policy at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $19.5 million and $22.3 million of substandard loans were purchased credit impaired in connection with our mergers and acquisitions. The following table sets forth information related to the credit quality of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Allowance for loan losses
The allowance for loan losses is the amount that, based on our judgment, is required to absorb probable credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio and that, in management’s judgment, is appropriate under GAAP. The determination of the amount of the allowance is complex and involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are loss exposure at default, the amount and timing of future cash flows on impacted loans, value of collateral and determination of the loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio.
Our methodology for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses includes a general allowance for performing loans, which are grouped based on similar characteristics, and an allocated allowance for individual impaired loans. Actual credit losses or recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowance.
The appropriate level of the allowance is established on a quarterly basis after input from management and our loan review staff and is based on an ongoing analysis of the credit risk of our loan portfolio. In making our evaluation of the credit risk of the loan portfolio, we consider factors such as the volume, growth and composition of our loan portfolio, the diversification by industry of our commercial loan portfolio, the effect of changes in the local real estate market on collateral values, trends in past dues, our experience as a lender, changes in lending policies, the effects on our loan portfolio of current economic indicators and their probable impact on borrowers, historical loan loss experience, industry loan loss experience, the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral and the evaluation of our loan portfolio by our loan review function.
In addition, on a regular basis, management and the Company’s Board of Directors review loan ratios. These ratios include the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans, net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans, the provision for loan losses as a percentage of average loans, nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans and the allowance coverage on nonperforming loans. Also, management reviews past due ratios by relationship manager, individual markets and the Bank as a whole. The allowance for loan losses was $30.1 million and $28.9 million and represented 0.70% and 0.79% of loans held for investment at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. This decrease is the result of continued strong credit quality and was also impacted by the addition of purchased loans from our branch acquisition from Atlantic Capital, which contributed to this decrease as newly purchased loans were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date and do not carry any significant allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2019.

Mortgage loans held for sale
Mortgage loans held for sale were $294.7 million at June 30, 2019 compared to $278.8 million at December 31, 2018. Interest rate lock volume for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 totaled $1.82 billion and $1.98 billion, respectively, compared to $3.19 billion and $4.10 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Generally, mortgage volume increases in lower interest rate environments and robust housing markets and decreases in rising interest rate environments and slower housing markets. The decrease in interest rate lock volume for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, reflects changes in market conditions and other related factors, particularly in our wholesale delivery channels, which were sold during the second and third quarters of 2019. While interest rate lock volume was down in total, production from our retail and Consumer Direct channels benefited from decreased interest rates in three months ended June 30, 2019. This resulted in an increase in interest rate lock commitments in the pipeline to $608.7 million at June 30, 2019 from $318.7 million at December 31, 2018.
Mortgage loans to be sold are sold either on a “best efforts” basis or under a mandatory delivery sales agreement. Under a “best efforts” sales agreement, residential real estate originations are locked in at a contractual rate with third party private investors or directly with government sponsored agencies, and we are obligated to sell the mortgages to such investors only if the mortgages are closed and funded. The risk we assume is conditioned upon loan underwriting and market conditions in the national mortgage market. Under a mandatory delivery sales agreement, we commit to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price and delivery date. Penalties are paid to the investor if we fail to satisfy the contract. Gains and losses are realized at the time consideration is received and all other criteria for sales treatment have been met. These loans are typically sold within thirty days after the loan is funded. Although loan fees and some interest income are derived from mortgage loans held for sale, the main source of income is gains from the sale of these loans in the secondary market.
Deposits
Deposits represent the Bank’s primary source of funds. We continue to focus on growing core customer deposits through our relationship driven banking philosophy, community-focused marketing programs, and initiatives such as the development of our treasury management services.
Total deposits were $4.84 billion and $4.17 billion as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Noninterest-bearing deposits at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $1,111.9 million and $949.1 million, respectively, while interest-bearing deposits were $3.73 billion and $3.22 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The 16.1% increase in total deposits is partially attributed to the acquisition of $588.9 million in deposits acquired from the Branches, continued focus on core customer deposit growth, and increased escrow deposits that our third party servicing provider, Cenlar, transferred to the Bank.
Brokered and internet time deposits at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $29.9 million and $103.1 million, respectively. The decrease of $73.2 million was due to expected maturity of brokered deposits while replacing with lower cost funds, which is consistent with our asset liability management strategy.
Included in noninterest-bearing deposits are certain mortgage escrow deposits that our third-party servicing provider, Cenlar, transfers to the Bank which totaled $68.3 million and $53.5 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Additionally, our deposits from municipal and governmental entities (i.e. "public deposits") totaled $535.4 million at June 30, 2019 compared to $448.6 million at December 31, 2018.
Our deposit base also includes certain commercial and high net worth individuals that periodically place deposits with the Bank for short periods of time and can from period to period cause fluctuations in the overall level of customer deposits outstanding. These fluctuations may include certain deposits from related parties as disclosed in Note 16 to the consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Report. The mix between noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits as of June 30, 2019 remained consistent with the mix at December 31, 2018. Management continues to focus on growing noninterest-bearing deposits while allowing more costly funding sources to mature.
Average deposit balances by type, together with the average rates per periods are reflected in the average balance sheet amounts, interest paid and rate analysis tables included above under the discussion of net interest income.

The balance of our available-for-sale debt securities portfolio at June 30, 2019 was $675.2 million compared to $655.7 million at December 31, 2018.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we purchased $30.0 million and $54.2 million in investment securities, respectively. This compares to purchases of $39.5 million and $121.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, or CMOs, in the aggregate, comprised 71.0% and 61.0% of these purchases, respectively. This compares to purchases of mortgage-backed securities and CMOs, in the aggregate, comprising of 66.5% and 85.8% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. CMOs are included in the “Mortgage-backed securities” line item in the above table. The mortgage-backed securities and CMOs held in our investment portfolio are primarily issued by government sponsored entities. U.S. Government agency securities and municipal securities accounted for 29.0% and 39.0% of total securities purchased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and made up 33.5% and 14.2% of total securities purchased during the same periods in 2018. The carrying value of securities sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, totaled $0 and $1.8 million, respectively. This compares to the carrying value of total securities sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 totaling $0 and $0.2 million, respectively. Maturities and calls of securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, totaled $29.4 million and $50.2 million, respectively, while totaling $18.0 million and $34.5 million during the same periods in 2018. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, net unrealized gains of $7.3 million and losses of $12.3 million, respectively, were recorded on available-for-sale debt securities.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $3.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in equity securities recorded at fair value. The change in the fair value of equity securities resulted in net gains of $47 thousand and $96 thousand, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to net losses of $43 thousand and $81 thousand, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Borrowed funds
Deposits and investment securities available for sale are the primary source of funds for our lending activities and general business purposes. However, we may also obtain advances from the FHLB, purchase federal funds and engage in overnight borrowing from the Federal Reserve, correspondent banks, or enter into client purchase agreements. We also use these sources of funds as part of our asset liability management process to control our long-term interest rate risk exposure, even if it may increase our short-term cost of funds. This may include match funding of fixed-rate loans.

82


Our level of short-term borrowing can fluctuate on a daily basis depending on funding needs and the source of funds to satisfy the needs in addition to the overall interest rate environment and cost of public funds. Borrowings include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, lines of credit, advances from the FHLB, federal funds and subordinated debt.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and federal funds purchased
We enter into agreements with certain customers to sell certain securities under agreements to repurchase the security the following day. These agreements are made to provide customers with comprehensive treasury management programs a short-term return for their excess funds. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled $25.5 million and $15.1 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
The Bank maintains lines with certain correspondent banks that provide borrowing capacity in the form of federal funds purchased in the aggregate amount of $240.0 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. There were borrowings against the line of $15.9 million at June 30, 2019 and no borrowings against the line at December 31, 2018.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances
As a member of the FHLB Cincinnati, the Bank receives advances from the FHLB pursuant to the terms of various agreements that assist in funding its mortgage and loan portfolio balance sheet. Under the agreements, we pledge qualifying residential mortgages of $573.2 million and qualifying commercial mortgages of $474.2 million as collateral securing a line of credit with a total borrowing capacity of $832.6 million as of June 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, we pledged qualifying residential mortgages of $619.0 million and qualifying commercial mortgages of $608.7 million as collateral securing a line of credit with a total borrowing capacity of $737.0 million.
Borrowings against our line totaled $185.0 million and $181.8 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Total borrowings comprised $0 and $1.8 million in long-term advances as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and $85.0 million and $80.0 million in overnight cash management advances (CMAs) as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. In addition, a letter of credit with FHLB of $200.0 million and $100.0 million was pledged to secure public funds that required collateral at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Included in total FHLB advances is $100.0 million borrowed during the third quarter of 2017 as part of the funding strategy for the Clayton Banks merger. These advances have 90 day fixed rate repricing terms. An additional line of $800 million has been secured with the FHLB for overnight borrowing; however, additional collateral may be needed to draw on the line. The maximum amount of FHLB borrowing outstanding at any month end was $185.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and $388.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018. The weighted average interest rate on FHLB borrowings was 2.56% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company entered into two new borrowing agreements with the FHLB that contain putable features. The FHLB advances of $100.0 million and $50.0 million carry maximum final terms of 10 years and 7 years, respectively, however, the FHLB owns the option to cancel the advances after one year and quarterly thereafter at predeterminable fixed rates of 1.24% and 1.37%, respectively. This funding structure was designed to lower our cost of funding to offset the impact of declining rates on interest-earning assets and increase liquidity.
Additionally, the Bank maintained a line with the Federal Reserve Bank through the Borrower-in-Custody program in 2019 and 2018. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $1.42 billion and $1.34 billion of qualifying loans and $6.1 million and $8.6 million of investment securities were pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank, securing a line of credit of $1,041.6 million and $934.7 million, respectively.
Subordinated debt
We have two wholly-owned subsidiaries that are statutory business trusts (“Trusts”). The Trusts were created for the sole purpose of issuing 30-year capital trust preferred securities to fund the purchase of junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our $0.9 million investment in the Trusts was included in

83


other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and our $30.0 million obligation is reflected as junior subordinated debt, respectively. The junior subordinated debt bears interest at floating interest rates based on a spread over 3-month LIBOR plus 315 basis points (5.48% and 5.97% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively) for the $21.7 million debenture and 3-month LIBOR plus 325 basis points (5.57% and 5.65% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively) for the remaining $9.3 million. The $9.3 million debenture may be redeemed prior to the 2033 maturity date upon the occurrence of a special event, and the $21.7 million debenture may be redeemed prior to 2033 at our option.
Liquidity and capital resources
Bank liquidity management
We are expected to maintain adequate liquidity at the Bank to meet the cash flow requirements of clients who may be either depositors wishing to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Our Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk Policy is intended to cause the Bank to maintain adequate liquidity and, therefore, enhance our ability to raise funds to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals and lending needs, maintain reserve requirements and otherwise sustain our operations. We accomplish this through management of the maturities of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. We believe that our present position is adequate to meet our current and future liquidity needs.
We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all of our short-term and long-term cash requirements. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of clients, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholder. We also monitor our liquidity requirements in light of interest rate trends, changes in the economy and the scheduled maturity and interest rate sensitivity of the investment and loan portfolios and deposits.
As part of our liquidity management strategy, we are also focused on minimizing our costs of liquidity and attempt to decrease these costs by growing our noninterest-bearing and other low-cost deposits and replacing higher cost funding including time deposits and borrowed funds. While we do not control the types of deposit instruments our clients choose, we do influence those choices with the rates and the deposit specials we offer. As a result of these strategies, we have been able to maintain a relatively low cost of funds in an increasing rate environment.
Our investment portfolio is another alternative for meeting liquidity needs. These assets generally have readily available markets that offer conversions to cash as needed. Securities within our investment portfolio are also used to secure certain deposit types and short-term borrowings. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, securities with a carrying value of $293.9 million and $326.2 million, respectively, were pledged to secure government, public, trust and other deposits and as collateral for short- term borrowings, letters of credit and derivative instruments.
Additional sources of liquidity include federal funds purchased and lines of credit. Interest is charged at the prevailing market rate on federal funds purchased and FHLB advances. Funds and advances obtained from the FHLB are used primarily to match-fund fixed rate loans in order to minimize interest rate risk and also used to meet day to day liquidity needs, particularly when the cost of such borrowing compares favorably to the rates that we would be required to pay to attract deposits. The balance of outstanding overnight CMAs at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $85.0 million and $80.0 million, respectively. During the third quarter of 2017, $100.0 million of 90 day fixed-rate advances were borrowed as part of the funding strategy for the merger with the Clayton Banks as described in management’s discussion and analysis on lines of credit and other borrowings.  At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance of our outstanding additional long-term advances with the FHLB were $0.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The remaining balance available with the FHLB was $447.6 million and $455.2 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.  We also maintain lines of credit with other commercial banks totaling $240.0 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. These are unsecured, uncommitted lines of credit typically maturing at various times within the next twelve months. There were borrowings against the line of $15.9 million at June 30, 2019 and no borrowings against the line at December 31, 2018.
Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company entered into two new borrowing agreements with the FHLB that contain putable features. The FHLB advances of $100.0 million and $50.0 million carry maximum final terms of 10 years and 7 years, respectively, however, the FHLB owns the option to cancel the advances after one year and quarterly thereafter at predeterminable fixed rates of 1.24% and 1.37%, respectively. This funding structure was designed to lower our cost of funding to offset the impact of declining rates on interest-earning assets and increase liquidity.
See discussion of deposit composition and seasonality in management's discussion and analysis of deposits.
Holding company liquidity management
The Company is a corporation separate and apart from the Bank and, therefore, it must provide for its own liquidity. The Company’s main source of funding is dividends declared and paid to it by the Bank. Statutory and regulatory limitations exist that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. Management believes that these limitations will not impact

84


the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short-term cash obligations. For additional information regarding dividend restrictions, see the “Item 1. Business - Supervision and regulation,” "Item 1A. Risk Factors - Risks related to our business" and " Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Dividend Policy," each of which is set forth in our Annual Report.
Due to state banking laws, the Bank may not declare dividends in any calendar year in an amount exceeding the total of its net income for that year combined with its retained net income of the preceding two years, without the prior approval of the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions ("TDFI"). Based upon this regulation, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, $177.6 million and $164.9 million of the Bank’s retained earnings were available for the payment of dividends without such prior approval. In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to the Company would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements. No cash dividends from the Bank to the Company were paid during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company declared dividends of $0.08 per share, or $2.6 million, and $0.16 per share, or $5.1 million, respectively. During the three and six month ended June 30, 2018, the Company declared a dividend of $0.06 per share, or $1.8 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company declared its third quarter dividend in the amount of $0.08 per share, or $2.6 million payable to stockholders of record as of August 1, 2019 on August 16, 2019. The Company routinely maintains cash balances on deposit with the Bank for ongoing corporate needs. We believe that our present position is adequate to meet our current and future liquidity needs.
The Company is party to a registration rights agreement with its former majority shareholder entered into in connection with the 2016 IPO, under which the Company is responsible for payment of expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions) relating to sales to the public by the shareholder of shares of the Company's common stock beneficially owned by him. Such expenses include registration fees, legal and accounting fees, and printing costs payable by the Company and expensed when incurred. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company paid $0.7 million under this agreement. No such expenses were incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Capital management and regulatory capital requirements
Our capital management consists of providing adequate equity to support our current and future operations. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal banking agencies, including the TDFI, Federal Reserve and the FDIC. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements may prompt certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components of capital, risk weightings and other factors.
The Federal Reserve and the FDIC have issued guidelines governing the levels of capital that banks must maintain. Those guidelines specify capital tiers, which include the classifications set forth in the following table. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we exceeded all capital ratio requirements under prompt corrective action and other regulatory requirements, as detailed in the table below:

(1) Minimum ratios presented exclude the capital conservation buffer.
We also have outstanding junior subordinated debentures with a carrying value of $30.9 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, of which $30.0 million are included in our Tier 1 capital.
The Federal Reserve Board issued rules in March 2005 providing stricter quantitative limits on the amount of securities that, similar to our junior subordinated debentures, are includable in Tier 1 capital. This guidance, which became fully effective in March 2009, did not impact the amount of debentures we include in Tier 1 capital. While our existing junior subordinated debentures are unaffected and are included in our Tier 1 capital, the Dodd-Frank Act specifies that any such securities issued after May 19, 2010 may not be included in Tier 1 capital.
In July 2013, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and issued rules affecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act, which we refer to as the Basel III Rules, that call for broad and comprehensive revision of regulatory capital standards for U.S. banking organizations. The Basel III Rules implement a new common equity Tier 1 minimum capital requirement, a higher minimum Tier 1 capital requirement and other items that impacts the calculation of the numerator of a banking organization’s risk-based capital ratios. Additionally, the Basel III Rules apply limits to a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a specified amount of common equity Tier 1 capital in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements.
When fully implemented on January 1, 2019, the common equity Tier 1 capital ratio includes common equity as defined under GAAP and does not include any other type of non-common equity under GAAP. With the Basel III Rules fully effective in 2019, banks are required to have common equity Tier 1 capital of 4.5% of average assets, Tier 1 capital of 6% of average assets, as compared to the current 4%, and total capital of 8% of risk-weighted assets to be categorized as adequately capitalized.
The Basel III Rules do not require the phase-out of trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies whose asset size is under $15 billion.
Further, the Basel III Rules changed the agencies’ general risk-based capital requirements for determining risk-weighted assets, which will affect the calculation of the denominator of a banking organization’s risk-based capital ratios. The Basel III Rules have revised the agencies’ rules for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity and incorporate certain international capital standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision set forth in the standardized approach of the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework”.

86


The calculation of risk-weighted assets in the denominator of the Basel III capital ratios are adjusted to reflect the higher risk nature of certain types of loans. Specifically, as applicable to the Company and the Bank:
Commercial mortgages: Replaces the current 100% risk weight with a 150% risk weight for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans.
Nonperforming loans: Replaces the current 100% risk weight with a 150% risk weight for loans, other than residential mortgages, that are 90 days past due or on nonaccrual status.
Securities pledged to overnight repurchase agreements: Replaced the current 0% risk weight with a 20% risk weight for repurchase agreements secured by mortgage back securities.
Unfunded lines of credit: Replaced the current 0% risk weight with 20% or higher based on risk category of collateral or guarantee for unfunded lines of credit maturing in one year or less.
Certain calculations under the new rules related to deductions from capital have been fully phase-in, specifically, the capital treatment of MSRs is phased in through the transition periods. Under the prior rules, the Bank deducted 10% of the value of MSRs (net of deferred tax) from Tier 1 capital ratios. However, under Basel III, the Bank and the Company must deduct a much larger portion of the value of MSRs from Tier 1 capital.
MSRs (net of deferred tax in excess of 10% of Tier 1 capital before threshold based deductions must be deducted from common equity. The disallowable portion of MSRs will be phased in incrementally (40% in 2015; 60% in 2016; and fully phased in at 80% in 2017 and beyond).
In addition, the combined balance of MSRs and deferred tax assets is limited to approximately 15% of the Bank's and the Company's common equity Tier 1 capital. These combined assets must be deducted from common equity to the extent that they exceed the 15% threshold.
Any portion of the Bank's and the Company's MSRs that are not deducted from the calculation of common equity Tier 1 is subject to a 100% risk weight.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Bank and Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. Also, as of June 30, 2018, the date of the most recent notification from the FDIC, the Bank was well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.
There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. As part of our ongoing balance sheet and capital management during the quarter, the Company sold $29.2 million of mortgage servicing rights on $2.03 billion of serviced mortgages. There was not a material gain or loss recognized in this transaction; however, the sale provided approximately $9.2 million in regulatory capital relief to support continued growth in the Banking segment of our business.
On December 21, 2018, federal banking agencies issued a joint final rule to revise their regulatory capital rules to (i) address the upcoming implementation of the “current expected credit losses” (“CECL”) accounting standard under GAAP; (ii) provide an optional three-year phase-in period for the day-one adverse regulatory capital effects that banking organizations are expected to experience upon adopting CECL; and (iii) require the use of CECL in stress tests beginning with the 2020 capital planning and stress testing cycle for certain banking organizations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this change in accounting standard.
On November 21, 2018, the federal banking agencies jointly issued a proposed rule to simplify the regulatory capital requirements for eligible banks and holding companies with less than $10 billion in consolidated assets that opt into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (“CBLR”) framework, as required by Section 201 of the Economic Growth, Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the “Regulatory Relief Act”). The Regulatory Relief Act mandates that the banking agencies develop a CBLR of not less than 8% and not more than 10% for qualifying community banking organizations. A qualifying community banking organization that exceeds the CBLR threshold would be exempt from the agencies’ current capital framework, including the risk-based capital requirements and capital conservation buffer described above, and would be deemed well-capitalized under the agencies’ prompt corrective action regulations. The Regulatory Relief Act defines a “qualifying community banking organization” as a depository institution or depository institution holding company with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion. Under the proposed rule, if a qualifying community banking organization elects to use the CBLR framework, it will be considered “well-capitalized” so long as its CBLR is greater than 9%. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this proposed rule.
On July 9, 2019, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule to simplify certain aspects of the Regulatory Capital Rules for standardized approach banking organizations. The final rule simplifies, for these banking organizations, the regulatory capital requirements for mortgage servicing assets, certain deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences, and investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions. The final rule replaces multiple deduction thresholds with a single 25% deduction threshold for each of these categories and requires that a 250% risk weight be applied to mortgage

87


servicing assets and deferred tax assets that are not deducted from capital. The final rule also simplifies the calculation of the amount of capital issued by a consolidated subsidiary of a banking organization and held by third parties that is permitted to be included in regulatory capital. In addition, the final rule makes certain technical amendments to the Regulatory Capital Rules that are applicable to standardized approach banking organizations as well as advanced approaches banking organizations. The technical amendments are effective on October 1, 2019, and the simplification changes are effective on April 1, 2020.
On April 5, 2019, the Company completed its previously-announced branch acquisition to purchase eleven Tennessee and three Georgia branch locations from Atlantic Capital Bank, N.A. The result of the transaction decreased capital ratios at June 30, 2019.
Capital Expenditures
As of June 30, 2019, we had capital commitments amounting to $4.9 million to be paid over the next twelve months. Additionally, we plan on investing an additional $2.7 million in branch improvements and expansion across our markets over the next twelve months.
Shareholders’ equity
Our total shareholders’ equity was $718.8 million at June 30, 2019 and $671.9 million, at December 31, 2018. Book value per share was $23.29 at June 30, 2019 and $21.87 at December 31, 2018. The growth in shareholders’ equity was attributable to earnings retention and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income offset by declared dividends and activity related to equity-based compensation.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We enter into loan commitments and standby letters of credit in the normal course of our business. Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of our clients. Standby letters of credit commit us to make payments on behalf of clients when certain specified future events occur. Both arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to clients and are subject to our normal credit policies. Collateral (e.g., securities, receivables, inventory, equipment, etc.) is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the client.
Loan commitments and standby letters of credit do not necessarily represent our future cash requirements because while the borrower has the ability to draw upon these commitments at any time, these commitments often expire without being drawn upon. Our unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit outstanding at the dates indicated were as

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest rate sensitivity
Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in the normal course of lending and deposit-taking activities. Management believes that our ability to successfully respond to changes in interest rates will have a significant impact on our financial results. To that end, management actively monitors and manages our interest rate risk exposure.
The Asset Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is authorized by our board of directors, monitors our interest rate sensitivity and makes decisions relating to that process. The ALCO’s goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital in either a rising or declining interest rate environment. Profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact our earnings because the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.
We monitor the impact of changes in interest rates on our net interest income and economic value of equity (“EVE”) using rate shock analysis. Net interest income simulations measure the short-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest in a rigorous and explicit fashion. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under varying hypothetical rate scenarios. EVE measures our long-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. EVE is defined as the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities at a point in time. A decrease in EVE due to a specified rate change indicates a decline in the long-term earnings capacity of the balance sheet assuming that the rate change remains in affect over the life of the current balance sheet.
The following analysis depicts the estimated impact on net interest income and EVE of immediate changes in interest rates at the specified levels for the periods presented:

The percentage change represents the projected net interest income for 12 months and 24 months on a flat balance sheet in a stable interest rate environment versus the projected net income in the various rate scenarios.

The percentage change in this column represents our EVE in a stable interest rate environment versus EVE in the various rate scenarios.
The results for the net interest income simulations as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 resulted in an asset sensitive position. The primary influence of our asset sensitivity is the floating rate structure in many of our loans held for investment as well as the composition of our liabilities which is primarily core deposits. Non-interest bearing deposits continue be a strong source of funding which also increases asset sensitivity. Beta assumptions on loans and deposits were consistent for both time periods.
The preceding measures assume no change in the size or asset/liability compositions of the balance sheet. Thus, the measures do not reflect the actions the ALCO may undertake in response to such changes in interest rates. The scenarios assume instantaneous movements in interest rates in increments of 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points. Furthermore, it has been the Federal Reserve’s policy to adjust the target federal funds rate incrementally over time. As interest rates are adjusted over a period of time, it is our strategy to proactively change the volume and mix of our balance sheet in order to mitigate our interest rate risk. The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes requires numerous

89


assumptions regarding characteristics of new business and the behavior of existing positions. These business assumptions are based upon our experience, business plans and published industry experience. Key assumptions employed in the model include asset prepayment speeds, competitive factors, the relative price sensitivity of certain assets and liabilities and the expected life of non-maturity deposits. Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, actual results may differ from simulated results.
We utilize derivative financial instruments as part of an ongoing effort to mitigate interest rate risk exposure to interest rate fluctuations and facilitate the needs of our customers.
The Company enters into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments to help its commercial customers manage their exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with customer contracts, the Company enters into an offsetting derivative contract. The Company manages its credit risk, or potential risk of default by its commercial customers through credit limit approval and monitoring procedures.
The Company has entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge interest rate exposure on short term liabilities, as well as interest rate swap contracts to hedge interest rate exposure on subordinated debentures. These interest rate swaps are all accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the Company receiving a variable rate of interest and paying a fixed rate of interest.
The Company enters into rate lock commitments and forward loan sales contracts as part of our ongoing efforts to mitigate our interest rate risk exposure inherent in our mortgage pipeline and held for sale portfolio. Under the interest rate lock commitments, interest rates for a mortgage loan are locked in with the client for a period of time, typically 30 days. Once an interest rate lock commitment is entered into with a client, we also enter into a forward commitment to sell the residential mortgage loan to secondary market investors. Forward loan sale contracts are contracts for delayed sale and delivery of mortgage loans to a counter party. We agree to deliver on a specified future date, a specified instrument, at a specified price or yield. The credit risk inherent to us arises from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. In the event of non-acceptance by the counterparty, we would be subject to the credit and inherent (or market) risk of the loans retained.
Additionally, the Company enters into forward commitments, options and futures contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments, which serve as economic hedges of the change in fair value of its MSRs.
Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company entered into two new borrowing agreements with the FHLB that contain putable features. The FHLB advances of $100.0 million and $50.0 million carry maximum final terms of 10 years and 7 years, respectively, however, the FHLB owns the option to cancel the advances after one year and quarterly thereafter at predeterminable fixed rates of 1.24% and 1.37%, respectively. This funding structure was designed to lower our cost of funding to offset the impact of declining rates on interest-earning assets and increase liquidity.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company’s senior management. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
PART II—Other Information
