CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report and other publicly available documents of the Company contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, including with respect to management’s expectations regarding future plans, strategies and financial performance, including regulatory developments, industry and economic trends, and other matters. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the Company's management and on information currently available to management, can be identified by the inclusion of such qualifications as “expects,” “intends,” “believes,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “possible,” “likely” or other indications that the particular statements are not historical facts and refer to future periods. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and may be outside of the Company’s control. Actual events and results may differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including:
● | our ability to execute our growth strategy; |
● | the impact of the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, on our business, including the impact of the actions taken by governmental authorities to try and contain the virus or address the impact of the virus on the United States economy (including, without limitation, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act), and the resulting effect of these items on our operations, liquidity and capital position, and on the financial condition of our borrowers and other customers; |
● | negative economic conditions that adversely affect the economy, real estate values, the job market and other factors nationally and in our market area, in each case that may affect our liquidity and the performance of our loan portfolio; |
● | impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets or deferred tax assets; |
● | our ability to achieve anticipated results from any bank acquisition depends on the state of the economic and financial markets going forward. Specifically, we may incur more credit losses than expected, cost savings may be less than expected, anticipated strategic gains may be significantly harder or take longer to achieve than expected or may not be achieved in their entirety, and customer attrition may be greater than expected; |
● | the financial success and viability of the borrowers of our commercial loans; |
● | changes in U.S. monetary policy, the level and volatility of interest rates, the capital markets and other market conditions that may affect, among other things, our liquidity and the value of our assets and liabilities; |
● | competitive pressures from other financial service businesses and from nontraditional financial technology (“FinTech”) companies; |
● | any negative perception of our reputation or financial strength; |
● | ability to raise additional capital on acceptable terms when needed; |
● | ability to raise cost-effective funding to support business plans when needed: |
● | ability to use technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands and create efficiencies in operations; |
● | adverse effects on our information technology systems resulting from failures, human error or cyberattacks; |
● | adverse effects of failures by our vendors to provide agreed upon services in the manner and at the cost agreed, particularly our information technology vendors and those vendors performing a service on the Company’s behalf; |
● | the impact of any claims or legal actions, including any effect on our reputation; |
● | losses incurred in connection with repurchases and indemnification payments related to mortgages; |
● | the soundness of other financial institutions and other counter-party risk; |
● | changes in accounting standards, rules and interpretations and the impact on our financial statements; |
● | our ability to receive dividends from our subsidiaries; |
● | a decrease in our regulatory capital ratios; |
● | adverse federal or state tax assessments; |
● | risks associated with actual or potential litigation or investigations by customers, regulatory agencies or others; |
● | legislative or regulatory changes, particularly changes in regulation of financial services companies; |
● | increased costs of compliance, heightened regulatory capital requirements and other risks associated with changes in regulation and the current regulatory environment, including the Dodd-Frank Act; |
● | negative changes in our capital position; |
● | the adverse effects of events such as outbreaks of contagious disease, war or terrorist activities, or essential utility outages, including deterioration in the global economy, instability in credit markets and disruptions in our customers’ supply chains and transportation; |
● | changes in trade policy and any related tariffs; and |
3
● | each of the factors and risks under the heading “Risk Factors” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in subsequent filings we make with the SEC. |
Because the Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain, there can be no assurances that future actual results will correspond to any forward-looking statements and you should not rely on any forward-looking statements. Additionally, all statements in this Form 10-Q, including forward-looking statements, speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events, except as required by applicable law.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Changes in Significant Accounting Policies
Except as set forth below in this Note 1, the accounting policies followed in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial information. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair statement of results for the interim period presented. Results for the period ended September 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in Old Second Bancorp, Inc.’s (the “Company”) annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Unless otherwise indicated, dollar amounts in the tables contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are in thousands. Certain items in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326),” also known as Current Expected Credit Losses, or CECL. ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide financial statement users with more useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date to enhance the decision making process. The new methodology reflects expected credit losses based on relevant vintage historical information, supported by reasonable forecasts of projected loss given defaults, which will affect the collectability of the reported amounts. This new methodology also requires available-for-sale debt securities to have a credit loss recorded through an allowance rather than write-downs through an other than temporary impairment analysis. In addition, an allowance must be established for the credit risk related to unfunded commitments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and was adopted as of January 1, 2020, by the Company.
Upon issuance of ASU 2016-13, the Company set up a CECL committee, with the goal of establishing a timeline for CECL data collection, implementation, parallel runs, testing, and model validation. The Company has implemented a software solution provided by a third party vendor to assist in the determination of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), and the third party validation process was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company accumulated historical data by loan pools and collateral classifications. All historical data, model assumptions and calculation parameters were analyzed by the third party validation team, and management made enhancements to the software model used based on their recommendations.
Our approach for estimating expected life-time credit losses for loans includes the following components:
● | An initial forecast period of one year for all portfolio segments and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This period reflects management’s expectation of losses based on forward-looking economic scenarios over that time. |
● | A historical reversion loss forecast period covering the remaining contractual life, adjusted for prepayments, by portfolio segment based on the historical loss rate of loans within those segments. |
● | The initial loss forecast period and historical reversion loss rate is based on economic conditions at the measurement date. |
● | We primarily utilized the static pool and migration analysis methods to estimate credit losses. Such methods would obtain estimated life-time credit losses using the conceptual components described above. |
Based on our portfolio composition at December 31, 2019, and the economic environment at that time, we recorded an overall increase in our ACL for loans and leases of $5.9 million and an ACL for unfunded commitments of $1.7 million. Approximately $2.5 million of the increase to the ACL on loans resulted from the transfer of the non-accretable purchase accounting adjustments on purchased credit impaired loans. There was no impact from adoption of CECL on securities available-for sale. As a result of the adoption of this new standard on January 1, 2020, we recorded a reduction to retained earnings of approximately $3.7 million, which was net of the $1.4

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
million deferred tax asset impact stemming from adoption. The Company finalized internal control processes and disclosure documentation related to adoption of this standard during the first quarter of 2020.
As of March 31, 2020, a provision for credit losses of $8.0 million was recorded, comprised of $5.2 million of ACL related to loans and leases and $2.5 million of ACL related to unfunded commitments, based on the uncertainty experienced in the macroeconomic environment, primarily due to falling interest rates and the impact of COVID-19. This additional ACL was not considered part of the ASU 2016-13 adoption, as these changes in the assessment of the ACL occurred after the January 1, 2020, adoption. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.1 million during the second quarter of 2020, comprised of $1.4 million of ACL related to loans and leases, and $734,000 of ACL related to unfunded commitments. We recorded a provision for credit losses of $300,000 during the third quarter of 2020, comprised of $1.3 million of ACL related to loans and leases, and a $980,000 reversal of ACL related to unfunded commitments due to a reduction in the funding rate assumptions based on analysis of the twelve month utilization rate on commercial commitments. We will continue to assess and evaluate the estimated future credit loss impact of current market conditions in subsequent reporting periods, which will be highly dependent on credit quality, macroeconomic forecasts and conditions, the local and national response to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the composition of our loans and available-for-sale securities portfolio.
Change in Significant Accounting Policies
Significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and in this discussion, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial statements and how those values are determined.
In addition to the significant accounting policies presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, on January 1, 2020, as discussed above, the Company adopted CECL, an expected loss methodology which replaces the incurred loss methodology for determining the Company’s provision for loan losses and allowance for loan and lease losses. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). In addition, CECL made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities. The allowance for credit losses under CECL is discussed below.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL is an estimate of the expected credit losses on the loans held for investment, unfunded loan commitments, and available-for-sale debt securities portfolios.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
The ACL is calculated according to GAAP standards and is maintained by management at a level believed adequate to absorb estimated credit losses that are expected to occur within the existing loan portfolio through their contractual terms. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on loans. Determination of the ACL is inherently subjective in nature since it requires significant estimates and management judgment, and includes a level of imprecision given the difficulty of identifying and assessing the factors impacting loan repayment and estimating the timing and amount of losses. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the ACL is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s direct control, including, but not limited to, the performance of the loan portfolio, consideration of current economic trends, changes in interest rates and property values, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on an analysis that uses historical loss experience for prior periods that are determined to have like characteristics with the current period such as pre-recessionary, recessionary, or recovery periods, portfolio growth and concentration risk, management and staffing changes, the interpretation of loan risk classifications by regulatory authorities and other credit market factors. While each component of the ACL is determined separately, the entire balance is available for the entire loan portfolio.
The ACL methodology consists of measuring loans on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has identified the following loan portfolios and measures the ACL using the following methods:
11
Old Second Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
● | Commercial loans – the Company uses a migration analysis, and within this segment classifies six different risk levels to assign a loss rate based on historical losses, as well as applying a qualitative factor adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied, as discussed below. |
● | Leases – the Company uses a remaining life methodology, also known as WARM (weighted average remaining maturity), as this segment is relatively new to the Company and more than four years of the Company’s own historical loss data is not available. In accordance with accounting standards, we used an identified peer group to estimate losses for this portfolio. |
● | Real estate – commercial (“CRE”) – this loan portfolio is segregated into two segments: |
o | CRE owner occupied – the Company uses a migration analysis, and within this segment classifies six different risk levels to assign a loss rate based on historical losses, as well as applying a qualitative adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied, as discussed below. |
o | CRE investor – the Company uses a migration analysis, and within this segment classifies six different risk levels to assign a loss rate based on historical losses, as well as applying a qualitative adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied, as discussed below. |
● | Real estate-construction – the Company uses a static segment analysis, which relies on the Company’s historical loss rates, as well as a qualitative adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied. |
● | Real estate-residential – this loan portfolio is segregated into two segments: |
o | Residential owner occupied and Residential investor – the Company uses a static segment analysis, applying historical loss rates from periods with like characteristics as the current period, and also a qualitative adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied. |
● | Multifamily – the Company uses a migration analysis, and within this segment, the Company classifies six different risk levels to assign a loss rate based on historical losses, as well as applying a qualitative adjustment in addition to the loss rates applied. |
● | HELOCs – this portfolio is segregated into two segments, a HELOC legacy segment which uses a static pool analysis, and a HELOC purchased segment, which uses the WARM method, and applies loss rates from the institutions from which the Company purchased the HELOCs, if available. |
Purchased credit deteriorated loans (“PCD loans”), are purchased loans that, as of the date of acquisition, the Company determined had experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. The Company records acquired PCD loans by adding the expected credit losses (i.e., the ACL) to the purchase price of the financial assets rather than recording it through the provision for credit losses in the income statement; thus, the sum of the loans’ purchase price and initial ALLL estimate represents the initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the unpaid principal balance is the non-credit discount or premium. Subsequent changes in the ACL on PCD loans is recognized through the provision for credit losses.
The non-credit discount or premium is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the PCD loan on a level-yield basis. In accordance with the transition requirements within the CECL standard, the Company’s purchased credit impaired loans (“PCI loans”) are now treated as PCD loans. Before January 1, 2020, PCI loans that met the definition of nonperforming loans were excluded from the Company’s nonperforming disclosures, as long as their cash flows and the timing of such cash flows continued to be estimable and probable of collection. As a result of CECL implementation on January 1, 2020, PCD loans that meet the definition of nonperforming loans are now included in the Company’s nonperforming disclosures.
The qualitative factors applied to each loan portfolio consist of the impact of other internal and external qualitative and credit market factors as assessed by management through a detailed loan review, ACL analysis and credit discussions. These internal and external qualitative and credit market factors include:
● | changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collections, charge-offs and recovery practices; |
● | changes in international, national, regionally and local conditions (specific factors which impact portfolios or discrepancies with national economic factors which are utilized within the economic forecast); |
● | changes in the experience, depth and ability of lending management; |
● | changes in the volume and severity of past due loans and other similar loan conditions; |
● | changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and terms of loans; |
● | the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the levels of such concentrations (this characteristic requires any portfolio exceeding 25% of capital to have a factor considered unless the pool is otherwise well diversified or holds a relatively low inherent risk); |
12
Old Second Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
● | effects of other external factors, such as competition, legal or regulatory factors, on the level of estimated credit losses; |
● | changes in the quality of our loan review functions; and |
● | changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans. |
The impact of the above listed internal and external qualitative and credit market risk factors is assessed within predetermined ranges to adjust the ACL totals calculated.
In addition to the pooled analysis performed for the majority of our loan and commitment balances, we also individually review those loans that have collateral dependency or are nonperforming. Finally, we maintain a component of the ACL for those factors that cannot be quantified in the above analysis or are as yet unknown to us, due to changing economic conditions and other aspects of credit risk; which is known as the Company’s “Other Reserves.”
Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed, while recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the ACL. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged off. Approved releases from previously established ACL reserves authorized under our ACL methodology also reduce the ACL. Additions to the ACL are established through the provision for credit losses on loans, which is charged to expense.
The Company’s ACL methodology is intended to reflect all loan portfolio risk, but management recognizes the inability to accurately depict all future credit losses in a current ACL estimate, as the impact of various factors cannot be fully known. Accrued interest receivable on loans is excluded from the amortized cost basis of financing receivables for the purpose of determining the allowance for credit losses. All calculations conform to GAAP.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Loan Commitments
The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk by a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The ACL related to off-balance sheet credit exposures, which is within other liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet, is estimated at each balance sheet date under the CECL model, and is adjusted as determined necessary through the provision for credit losses on the income statement. The estimate for ACL on unfunded loan commitments includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Securities Available-for-Sale
For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the aforementioned criteria exists, the Company will record an ACL related to securities available-for-sale with an offsetting entry to the provision for credit losses on securities on the income statement. If either of these criteria does not exist, the Company will evaluate the securities individually to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors, such as market interest rate fluctuations.
In evaluating securities available-for sale for potential impairment, the Company considers many factors, including the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, which for debt securities considers external credit ratings and recent downgrades; and its ability and intent to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value. The Company also considers the extent to which the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, and any guarantee of issued amounts by those agencies. The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).
Accrued interest receivable on securities available-for-sale is excluded from the amortized cost basis of those securities for the purpose of determining the allowance for credit losses. All calculations conform to GAAP.

Risks and Uncertainties
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which was declared a national emergency in the United States in March 2020, continues to create extensive disruptions to the global economy and financial markets and to businesses and the lives of individuals throughout the world. In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity in the Company’s markets. Federal and state governments have taken, and may continue to take, unprecedented actions to contain the spread of the disease, including quarantines, travel bans, shelter-in-place orders, closures of businesses and schools, fiscal stimulus, and legislation designed to deliver monetary aid and other relief to businesses and individuals impacted by the pandemic. Although in various locations certain activity restrictions have been relaxed and businesses and schools have reopened with some level of success, in many states and localities the number of individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 has increased significantly, which may cause a freezing or, in certain cases, a reversal of previously announced relaxation of activity restrictions and may prompt the need for additional aid and other forms of relief.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is fluid and continues to evolve. The unprecedented and rapid spread of COVID-19 and its associated impacts on trade (including supply chains and export levels), travel, employee productivity, unemployment, consumer spending, and other economic activities has resulted in less economic activity, lower bank equity market valuations and significant volatility and disruption in financial markets. In addition, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, market interest rates have declined significantly, with the 10-year Treasury bond falling below 1.00% on March 3, 2020, for the first time, and declining further to 0.65% as of June 30, 2020. On March 3, 2020, the Federal Open Market Committee reduced the targeted federal funds interest rate range by 50 basis points to 1.00% to 1.25%. This range was further reduced to 0% to 0.25% percent on March 16, 2020. These reductions in interest rates and the other effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have had, and are expected to continue to have, possibly materially, an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations is currently uncertain and will depend on various developments and other factors, including, among others, the duration and scope of the pandemic, as well as governmental, regulatory and private sector responses to the pandemic, and the associated impacts on the economy, financial markets and the Company’s customers, employees and vendors.
As of September 30, 2020, our consolidated balance sheet included goodwill of $18.6 million. For each quarter end of 2020, we considered whether a quantitative assessment of goodwill was required as a result of the significant economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Impacts of the economic disruptions were noted from the latter half of March through the third quarter, specifically, the decline in the trading price of our common stock and an increase in the U.S. unemployment rate. After considering qualitative factors regarding the expected impacts of the pandemic on our business, operations and financial condition, we determined that these conditions did not indicate that it is more likely than not that the Company’s carrying value exceeded our fair value as of September 30, 2020. However, further delayed recovery or further deterioration in market conditions related to the general economy, financial markets, and the associated impacts on our customers, employees and vendors, among other factors, could significantly impact the impairment analysis and may result in future goodwill impairment charges that, if incurred, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Subsequent Events
On October 19, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.01 per share payable on November 9, 2020, to stockholders of record as of October 30, 2020; dividends of $295,000 are scheduled to be paid to stockholders on November 9, 2020.
Note 2 – Acquisitions
On April 20, 2018, the Company acquired Greater Chicago Financial Corp. (“GCFC”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ABC Bank, which operated four branches in the Chicago metro area. In addition to the acquisition price of $41.1 million, the Company retired the convertible and nonconvertible debentures held by GCFC upon acquisition, which totaled $6.6 million, including interest due. The purchase and the retirement of the debentures were funded with the Company’s cash on hand, and all GCFC common stock was retired and cancelled simultaneous with the close of the transaction. The Company acquired $227.6 million of loans, net of purchase accounting adjustments, and $248.5 million of deposits, net of purchase accounting adjustments for time deposits. Purchase accounting adjustments recorded include a loan valuation mark of $11.2 million, a core deposit intangible of $3.1 million, a fixed asset valuation adjustment of $1.5 million, and goodwill of $10.2 million. In addition, a deferred tax asset of $3.5 million was recorded as of the date of acquisition
14
Old Second Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
based on analysis of the fair value of assets acquired, less liabilities assumed. None of the $10.2 million recorded as goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. These fair value estimates were considered final as of March 31, 2019, and no further refinements to the values recorded are anticipated.
Note 3 – Securities
Investment Portfolio Management
Our investment portfolio serves the liquidity needs and income objectives of the Company. While the portfolio serves as an important component of the overall liquidity management at the Bank, portions of the portfolio also serve as income producing assets. The size and composition of the portfolio reflects liquidity needs, loan demand and interest income objectives. Portfolio size and composition will be adjusted from time to time. While a significant portion of the portfolio consists of readily marketable securities to address liquidity, other parts of the portfolio may reflect funds invested pending future loan demand or to maximize interest income without undue interest rate risk.
Investments are comprised of debt securities and non-marketable equity investments. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on securities available-for-sale are reported as a separate component of equity. This balance sheet component changes as interest rates and market conditions change. Unrealized gains and losses are not included in the calculation of regulatory capital.
Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLBC”) and Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago (“FRBC”) stock are considered nonmarketable equity investments. FHLBC stock was recorded at $3.7 million at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019. FRBC stock was recorded at $6.2 million at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019.
The following tables summarize the amortized cost and fair value of the securities portfolio at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized gains and losses:

At September 30, 2020, the Company’s investments included $55.9 million of asset-backed securities that are backed by student loans originated under the Federal Family Education Loan program (“FFEL”). Under the FFEL, private lenders made federally guaranteed student loans to parents and students. While the program was modified several times before elimination in 2010, FFEL securities are generally guaranteed by the U.S Department of Education (“DOE”) at not less than 97% of the outstanding principal amount of the loans. The guarantee will reduce to 85% if the DOE receives reimbursement requests in excess of 5% of insured loans; reimbursement will drop

to 75% if reimbursement requests exceed 9% of insured loans. In addition to the DOE guarantee, total added credit enhancement in the form of overcollateralization and/or subordination amounted to $5.1 million, or 9.00% of outstanding principal.
At September 30, 2020, the Company had invested in securities issued from one originator that individually amounted to over 10% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Information regarding this issuer and the value of the securities issued follows:

As required upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13, we performed an analysis to determine if any of the unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale were comprised of credit losses as compared to unrealized losses due to market interest rate adjustments. Our assessment included a review of the unrealized loss for each security issuance held; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including external credit ratings and recent downgrades; and our ability and intent to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value. The Company also considered the extent to which the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, and any guarantee of issued amounts by those agencies. No credit losses were determined to be present as of the date of CECL adoption or as of the quarter ended September 30, 2020, as there was no credit quality deterioration noted. Therefore, no provision for credit losses on securities was recognized for the third quarter end.
The following table presents net realized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

1 The “Other” segment for 2020 includes consumer and overdrafts in this table and in subsequent tables within Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans.
2As noted in the paragraph below, for periods before the Company’s adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, PCI loans and their related deferred loan costs (now PCD loans) were excluded from nonperforming loan disclosures and were therefore separately reported. After the adoption of CECL, all PCD loans are now included within each relevant loan type and are not separately reported as PCI loans, because such loans are now included within the Company’s nonperforming loan disclosures, if such loans otherwise meet the definition of a nonperforming loan.
3 Excludes accrued interest receivable of $7.1 million and $6.5 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, that is recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
Purchased credit deteriorated loans, or PCD loans, are purchased loans that, as of the date of acquisition, the Company determined had experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. Before the Company adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, PCD loans were referred to as purchased credit impaired loans, or PCI loans, and such PCI loans and their related
18

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
deferred loan costs were excluded from the Company’s nonperforming loan disclosures, as long as the cash flows on such loans and the timing of such cash flows continued to be estimable and probable of collection. However, after the Company adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, PCD loans and their related deferred loan costs are now included in the Company’s nonperforming loan disclosures, if such loans otherwise meet the definition of a nonperforming loan.
It is the policy of the Company to review each prospective credit prior to making a loan in order to determine if an adequate level of security or collateral has been obtained. The type of collateral, when required, will vary from liquid assets to real estate. The Company’s access to collateral, in the event of borrower default, is assured through adherence to lending laws, the Company’s lending standards and credit monitoring procedures. Although the Bank makes loans primarily within its market area, there are no significant concentrations of loans where the customers’ ability to honor loan terms is dependent upon a single economic sector. The real estate related categories listed above represent 71.4% and 75.4% of the portfolio at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively, and include a mix of owner and non-owner occupied, residential, construction and multifamily loans.
The following table presents the collateral dependent loans and the related ACL allocated by segment of loans as of September 30, 2020:

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company categorizes loans into credit risk categories based on current financial information, overall debt service coverage, comparison to industry averages, historical payment experience, and current economic trends. This analysis includes loans with outstanding balances or commitments greater than $50,000 and excludes homogeneous loans such as home equity lines of credit and residential mortgages. Loans with a classified risk rating are reviewed quarterly regardless of size or loan type. The Company uses the following definitions for classified risk ratings:
Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention 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 at some future date.
Substandard. Loans classified 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 classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The substandard credit quality indicator includes both potential problem loans that are currently performing and nonperforming loans.
Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Credits that are not covered by the definitions above are pass credits, which are not considered to be adversely rated. The Company follows the guidance of ASC 310-20 when determining whether a modification, extension, or renewal of a loan constitutes a current period origination. Generally, current period renewals of credit are re-underwritten at the point of renewal and considered current period financing receivables. The following table summarizes loans held for investment by year of origination and the related credit quality indicators at September 30, 2020:

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are loans for which the contractual terms have been modified and both of these conditions exist: (1) there is a concession to the borrower and (2) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. Loans are restructured on a case-by-case basis during the loan collection process with modifications generally initiated at the request of the borrower. These modifications may include reduction in interest rates, extension of term, deferrals of principal, and other modifications. The Bank participates in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s (the “Treasury”) Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”) which gives qualifying homeowners an opportunity to refinance into more affordable monthly payments. Additionally, in accordance with interagency guidance, short-term deferrals granted due to the COVID-19 pandemic are not considered TDRs unless the borrower was experiencing financial difficulty prior to the pandemic.
The specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses for TDRs is determined by calculating the present value of the TDR cash flows by discounting the original payment less an assumption for probability of default at the original note’s issue rate, and adding this amount to the present value of collateral less selling costs. If the resulting amount is less than the recorded book value, the Bank either establishes a valuation allowance (i.e., specific reserve) as a component of the allowance for credit losses or charges off the impaired balance if it determines that such amount is a confirmed loss. This method is used consistently for all segments of the portfolio. The allowance for credit losses also includes an allowance based on a loss migration analysis for each loan category on loans and leases that are not individually evaluated for specific impairment. All loans charged-off, including TDRs charged-off, are factored into this calculation by portfolio segment.
TDRs that were modified during the period are as follows:

TDRs are classified as being in default on a case-by-case basis when they fail to be in compliance with the modified terms. There was no TDR default activity for the periods ended September 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019, for loans that were restructured within the prior 12 month period.

These transactions consistently mature overnight from the transaction date and are governed by sweep repurchase agreements. All sweep repurchase agreements are treated as financings secured by U.S. government agencies and collateralized mortgage-backed securities and had a carrying amount of $59.3 million at September 30, 2020, and $48.7 million at December 31, 2019. The fair value of the pledged collateral was $79.3 million at September 30, 2020, and $70.7 million at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020, there were no customers with secured balances exceeding 10% of stockholders’ equity.
The Company’s borrowings at the FHLBC require the Bank to be a member and invest in the stock of the FHLBC. Total borrowings are generally limited to the lower of 35% of total assets or 60% of the book value of certain mortgage loans. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank had $6.1 million in short-term advances outstanding under the FHLBC compared to $48.5 million outstanding as of December 31, 2019; the remaining $6.1 million was issued at a rate of 2.19%. The Bank also assumed $23.4 million of long-term FHLBC advances with the ABC Bank acquisition in 2018. At September 30, 2020, one advance remains in long-term status, with a total outstanding balance of $6.5 million, at a 2.83% interest rate, and is scheduled to mature on February 2, 2026. FHLBC stock as of September 30, 2020 was valued at $3.7 million, and any potential FHLBC advances were collateralized by securities with a fair value of $53.1 million and loans with a principal balance of $569.7 million, which carried a FHLBC-calculated combined collateral value of $428.4 million. The Company had excess collateral of $289.6 million available to secure borrowings at September 30, 2020.
The Company also has $44.3 million of senior notes outstanding, net of deferred issuance costs, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The senior notes were issued in December 2016 with a ten year maturity, and terms include interest payable semiannually at 5.75% for five years. Beginning December 2021, the senior debt will pay interest at a floating rate, with interest payable quarterly at three month LIBOR plus 385 basis points. The notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, beginning with the interest payment date on December 31, 2021, and on any floating rate interest payment date thereafter, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31,

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
2019, unamortized debt issuance costs related to the senior notes were $651,000 and $730,000, respectively, and are included as a reduction of the balance of the senior notes on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. These deferred issuance costs will be amortized to interest expense over the ten year term of the notes and are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
On February 24, 2020, the Company originated a $20.0 million term note, of which $18.0 million is outstanding as of September 30, 2020, with a correspondent bank related to the Company’s redemption of the 7.80% cumulative trust preferred securities issued by Old Second Capital Trust I and related junior subordinated debentures. See the discussion in Note 8 – Junior Subordinated Debentures. The term note was issued for a three year term at one-month Libor plus 175 basis points, requires principal and interest payments quarterly, and the balance of this note is included within Notes Payable and Other Borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company also has an undrawn line of credit of $20.0 million with a correspondent bank to be used for short-term funding needs; advances under this line can be outstanding up to 360 days from the date of issuance. This line of credit has not been utilized since early 2019.
Note 8 – Junior Subordinated Debentures
On March 2, 2020, the Company redeemed the 7.80% cumulative trust preferred securities issued by Old Second Capital Trust I (“OSBCP”) and related debentures, which totaled $32.6 million. These debentures were originally issued in 2003 for a term of 30 years at 7.80%, and subject to regulatory approval, were able to be called in whole or in part by the Company after June 30, 2008. The Company received regulatory approval to redeem the debentures in early 2020, and notified OSBCP stockholders of the redemption in late January 2020. Cash disbursed for the redemption, including accrued interest on the debentures, totaled $33.0 million, or $10.13 per OSBCP share. The OSBCP redemption was funded by cash on hand and the $20 million term note discussed in Note 7 – Borrowings. Upon redemption of the junior subordinated debentures related to OSBCP in March 2020, the Company recognized the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs of $635,000.
The Company issued $25.0 million of cumulative trust preferred securities through a private placement completed by another unconsolidated subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust II, in April 2007. These trust preferred securities also mature in 30 years, but subject to the aforementioned regulatory approval, can be called in whole or in part on a quarterly basis commencing June 15, 2017. The quarterly cash distributions on the securities were fixed at 6.77% through June 15, 2017, and float at 150 basis points over -month LIBOR thereafter. Upon conversion to a floating rate, a cash flow hedge was initiated which resulted in the total interest rate paid on the debt of 4.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to the rate paid for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, of 4.40%. The Company issued a new $25.8 million subordinated debenture to Old Second Capital Trust II in return for the aggregate net proceeds of this trust preferred offering. The interest rate and payment frequency on the debenture are equivalent to the cash distribution basis on the trust preferred securities.
The junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company are disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and the related interest expense for each issuance is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the junior subordinated debentures were $1,000 and $644,000 respectively, and are included as a reduction to the balance of the junior subordinated debentures on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The remaining deferred issuance costs on the junior subordinated debentures related to the issuance of Old Second Capital Trust II will be amortized to interest expense over the remainder of the 30-year term of the notes and are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Note 9 – Equity Compensation Plans
Stock-based awards are outstanding under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2014 Plan”), and the Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan” and together with the 2014 Plan, the “Plans”). The 2019 Plan was approved at the May 2019 annual stockholders’ meeting and the number of authorized shares under the 2019 Plan is fixed at 600,000. Following approval of the 2019 Plan, no further awards were to be granted under the 2014 Plan or any other prior Company equity compensation plan. The 2019 Plan authorizes the granting of qualified stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). Awards may be granted to selected directors, officers, employees or eligible service providers under the 2019 Plan at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. As of September 30, 2020, 343,602 shares remained available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
Under the 2019 Plan, unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, upon the occurrence of a change in control, all stock options and SARs then held by the participant will become fully exercisable immediately if, and all stock awards and cash incentive awards will become fully earned and vested immediately if, (i) the 2019 Plan is not an obligation of the successor entity following a change in control or (ii) the 2019 Plan is an obligation of the successor entity following a change in control and the participant incurs a termination of service without cause or for good reason following the change in control. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if the vesting of an award is conditioned upon the achievement of performance measures, then such vesting will generally be subject to the following: if, at the time of the change in control, the performance measures are less than 50% attained (pro rata based upon the time of the period through the change in control), the award will become vested and exercisable on a fractional basis with the numerator being equal to the percentage of attainment and the denominator being 50%; and if, at the time of the change in control, the performance measures are at least 50% attained (pro rata based upon the time of the period through the change in control), the award will become fully earned and vested immediately upon the change in control.
Generally, restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the Plans vest three years from the grant date, but the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has discretionary authority to change some terms including the amount of time until the vest date. There were no stock options granted or exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and as of September 30, 2020, there were no stock options outstanding.
The Company granted restricted stock under its equity compensation plans beginning in 2005 and it began granting restricted stock units in February 2009. Awards of restricted stock under the Plans generally entitle holders to voting and dividend rights upon grant and are subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period. Awards of restricted stock units under the Plans are also subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period, but do not entitle holders to voting rights until the restricted period ends and shares are transferred in connection with the units.
There were 137,944 and 166,106 restricted stock units issued under the 2019 Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the restricted stock units based on the market value of the award on the issue date. Total compensation cost that has been recorded for the Plan was $1.6 million in the first nine months of 2020 and $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2019.
A summary of changes in the Company’s unvested restricted awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, is as follows:

Note 11 – Regulatory & Capital Matters
The Bank is subject to the risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, which include the methodology for calculating the risk-weighted Bank assets, developed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) and the other bank regulatory agencies. In connection with the current risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, the Bank’s Board of Directors has established an internal guideline requiring the Bank to maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at or above eight percent (8%) and a total risk-based capital ratio at or above twelve percent (12%). At September 30, 2020, the Bank exceeded those thresholds.
At September 30, 2020, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital leverage ratio was 10.90%, a decrease of 160 basis points from December 31, 2019, but is well above the 8.00% objective. The reduction in the Tier 1 capital leverage ratio is primarily due to a $30.0 million dividend the Bank paid the Company in March 2020.The Bank’s total capital ratio was 15.49%, an increase of 26 basis points from December 31, 2019, and also well above the objective of 12.00%.
Bank holding companies are generally required to maintain minimum levels of capital in accordance with capital guidelines implemented by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The general bank and holding company capital adequacy guidelines are shown in the accompanying table, as are the capital ratios of the Company and the Bank, as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019.
In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities issued final rules (the “Basel III Rules”) establishing more stringent regulatory capital requirements for U.S. banking institutions, which went into effect on January 1, 2015. The Basel III Rules are applicable to all banking organizations that are subject to minimum capital requirements, including federal and state banks and savings and loan associations, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies, other than “small bank holding companies” generally holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion. The Company is currently considered a “small bank holding company.” A detailed discussion of the Basel III Rules is included in Part I, Item 1 of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, under the heading “Supervision and Regulation.”
At September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the minimum thresholds to be considered “well capitalized” under current regulatory defined capital ratios.

1 Amounts are shown inclusive of a capital conservation buffer of 2.50%. Under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement, the Company is not subject to the minimum capital adequacy and capital conservation buffer capital requirements at the holding company level, unless otherwise advised by the Federal Reserve (such capital requirements are applicable only at the Bank level). Although the minimum regulatory capital requirements are not applicable to the Company, we calculate these ratios for our own planning and monitoring purposes.
2 The prompt corrective action provisions are only applicable at the Bank level. The Bank exceeded the general minimum regulatory requirements to be considered “well capitalized.”
As part of its response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020, U.S. federal regulatory authorities issued an interim final rule that provided banking organizations that adopted CECL during the 2020 calendar year with the option to delay for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital relative to regulatory capital determined under the prior incurred loss methodology, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during the initial two-year delay (i.e., a five-year transition in total). In connection with our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, we have elected to utilize the five-year CECL transition. The cumulative amount that is not recognized in regulatory capital, in addition to the $3.8 million Day 1 impact of CECL adoption, will be phased in at 25% per year beginning January 1, 2022. As of September 30, 2020, the capital

measures of the Company exclude $5.7 million, which is the Day 1 impact to retained earnings and 25% of the $10.4 million increase in the allowance for credit losses in the first nine months of 2020, excluding PCD loans.
Dividend Restrictions
In addition to the above requirements, banking regulations and capital guidelines generally limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by a bank without prior regulatory approval. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s profits, combined with the retained profit of the previous two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. Pursuant to the Basel III rules that came into effect January 1, 2015, and were fully phased in as of January 1, 2019, the Bank must keep a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% above the new regulatory minimum capital requirements, which must consist entirely of Common Equity Tier 1 capital in order to avoid additional limitations on capital distributions and certain other payments.
Stock Repurchase Program
In September 2019, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,494,826 shares of our common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases by us under the Repurchase Program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, trading plans established in accordance with SEC rules, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means. During the first, second and third quarters of 2020, we repurchased 312,723 shares, 145,932 shares, and 137,756 shares of our common stock at weighted average prices of $7.06 per share, $6.97 per share, and $8.34 per share, respectively, pursuant to the Repurchase Program.
Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an 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. The fair value hierarchy established by the Company also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own view about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
The majority of securities available-for-sale are valued by external pricing services or dealer market participants and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Both market and income valuation approaches are utilized. Quarterly, the Company evaluates the methodologies used by the external pricing services or dealer market participants to develop the fair values to determine whether the results of the valuations are representative of an exit price in the Company’s principal markets and an appropriate representation of fair value. The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:
● | Government-sponsored agency debt securities are primarily priced using available market information through processes such as benchmark spreads, market valuations of like securities, like securities groupings and matrix pricing. |
● | Other government-sponsored agency securities, MBS and some of the actively traded real estate mortgage investment conduits and collateralized mortgage obligations are priced using available market information including benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, spreads, volatility of similar securities and trade date. |
● | State and political subdivisions are largely grouped by characteristics (e.g., geographical data and source of revenue in trade dissemination systems). Because some securities are not traded daily and due to other grouping limitations, active market quotes are often obtained using benchmarking for like securities. |
● | Auction rate securities are priced using market spreads, cash flows, prepayment speeds, and loss analytics. Therefore, the valuations of auction rate asset-backed securities are considered Level 2 valuations. |
32
Old Second Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
● | Asset-backed collateralized loan obligations were priced using data from a pricing matrix supported by our bond accounting service provider and are therefore considered Level 2 valuations. |
● | Annually every security holding is priced by a pricing service independent of the regular and recurring pricing services used. The independent service provides a measurement to indicate if the price assigned by the regular service is within or outside of a reasonable range. Management reviews this report and applies judgment in adjusting calculations at year end related to securities pricing. |
● | Residential mortgage loans available for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair market value. The fair value of loans held-for-sale is determined using quoted secondary market prices. |
● | Lending related commitments to fund certain residential mortgage loans, e.g., residential mortgage loans with locked interest rates to be sold in the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors, as well as forward commitments for future delivery of MBS are considered derivatives. Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including prices for MBS from the date of the commitment and do not typically involve significant judgments by management. |
● | The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income to derive the resultant value. The Company is able to compare the valuation model inputs, such as the discount rate, prepayment speeds, weighted average delinquency and foreclosure/bankruptcy rates to widely available published industry data for reasonableness. |
● | Interest rate swap positions, both assets and liabilities, are based on valuation pricing models using an income approach reflecting readily observable market parameters such as interest rate yield curves. |
● | The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses is essentially based on recent real estate appraisals or the fair value of the collateralized asset. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to reflect differences between the available comparable sales and income data. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. |
● | Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as OREO are measured at fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification, or an executed pending sales contract. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized. |

In addition to the above, Level 3 fair value measurement included $4.8 million for state and political subdivisions representing various local municipality securities at September 30, 2020. This was classified as securities available-for-sale, and was valued using a discount based on market spreads of similar assets, but the liquidity premium was an unobservable input. The state and political subdivisions securities balance in Level 3 fair value at September 30, 2019, was $5.9 million. These securities were classified as securities available-for-sale, and were valued using a discount based on market spreads of similar assets, but the liquidity premium was an unobservable input.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis:
The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These assets consist of individually evaluated (formerly, impaired) loans and OREO. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each valuation and the carrying value of the related assets:

The Company has estimated the fair values of these assets based primarily on Level 3 inputs. OREO and impaired loans are generally valued using the fair value of collateral provided by third party appraisals. These valuations include assumptions related to cash flow

projections, discount rates, and recent comparable sales. The numerical ranges of unobservable inputs for these valuation assumptions are not meaningful.
Note 13 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values approximate carrying amount for all items except those described in the following table. Securities available-for-sale fair values are based upon market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security. The carrying value of FHLBC stock approximates fair value as the stock is nonmarketable and can only be sold to the FHLBC or another member institution at par. FHLBC stock is carried at cost and considered a Level 2 fair value. For September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair values of loans and leases are estimated on an exit price basis incorporating discounts for credit, liquidity and marketability factors. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using discounted future cash flows at current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair values of borrowings were estimated based on interest rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value of off balance sheet volume is not considered material.

Note 14 – Derivatives, Hedging Activities and Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risk arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s loan portfolio.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. In December of 2019, the Company also executed a loan pool hedge of $50 million to convert variable rate loans to a fixed rate index for a five year term.
For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and subsequently reclassified into interest income/expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are received on the Company’s variable-rate borrowings. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that an additional $180,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest income and an additional $163,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

Non-designated Hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain customers. The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives with financial counterparties are recognized directly in earnings.
The Company also grants mortgage loan interest rate lock commitments to borrowers, subject to normal loan underwriting standards. The interest rate risk associated with these loan interest rate lock commitments is managed with contracts for future deliveries of loans as well as selling forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Loan interest rate lock commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held-for-sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans or forward MBS contracts are considered derivative instruments and changes in the fair value are recorded to mortgage banking revenue. Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including mortgage-backed securities prices from the date of the commitment.
Disclosure of Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet
The Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap on August 18, 2015, with an effective date of June 15, 2017. This transaction had a notional amount totaling $25.8 million as of September 30, 2020, was designated as a cash flow hedge of certain junior subordinated debentures and was determined to be fully effective during the period presented. As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income. Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swap is recorded in other liabilities with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income, net of tax. The amount included in other comprehensive income would be reclassified to current earnings should all or a portion of the hedge no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedge to remain fully effective during the remaining term of the swap. The Bank will pay the counterparty a fixed rate and receive a floating rate based on three month LIBOR. The trust preferred securities changed from fixed rate to floating rate on June 15, 2017. The cash flow hedge has a maturity date of June 15, 2037.
In December 2019, the Company also executed a loan pool hedge of $50.0 million to convert variable rate loans to a fixed rate index for a five year term. This transaction falls under hedge accounting standards and is paired against a pool of the Bank’s Libor-based loans. Overall, the new swap only bolsters income in down rate scenarios by a modest degree. We consider the current level of interest rate risk to be moderate but intend to continue looking for market opportunities to hedge further. The Bank held $1.7 million of cash collateral related to one correspondent financial institution to cover the loan pool hedge mark to market valuation at September 30, 2020.
The Bank also has interest rate derivative positions to assist with risk management that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative positions relate to transactions in which the Bank enters an interest rate swap with a client while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. The Bank had $17.2 million of cash collateral held by one correspondent financial institution to support interest rate swap activity at September 30, 2020 and no investment securities were required to be pledged to any correspondent financial institution. The Bank had $114,000 of cash collateral pledged with one correspondent financial institution to support interest rate swap activity at December 31, 2019 and $11.0 million of investment securities were required to be pledged to two correspondent financial institutions. At September 30, 2020, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $191.3 million with a weighted average maturity of 5.0 years. At December 31, 2019, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $177.9 million with a weighted average maturity of 5.9 years. The Bank offsets derivative assets and liabilities that are subject to a master netting arrangement.
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Disclosure of the Effect of Fair Value and Cash Flow Hedge Accounting
The fair value and cash flow hedge accounting related to derivatives covered under ASC Subtopic 815-20 impacted Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and the Income Statement. The loss recognized in AOCI on derivatives totaled $3.3 million as of September 30, 2020, and a loss of $3.4 million as of September 30, 2019. The amount of the loss reclassified from AOCI to interest income on the income statement totaled $72,000 and $27,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019, respectively.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
For derivative transactions involving counterparties who are lending customers of the Company, the derivative credit exposure is managed through the normal credit review and monitoring process, which may include collateralization, financial covenants and/or financial guarantees of affiliated parties. Agreements with such customers require that losses associated with derivative transactions receive payment priority from any funds recovered should a customer default and ultimate disposition of collateral or guarantees occur.
Credit exposure to broker/dealer counterparties is managed through agreements with each derivative counterparty that require collateralization of fair value gains owed by such counterparties. Some small degree of credit exposure exists due to timing differences between when a gain may occur and the subsequent point in time that collateral is delivered to secure that gain. This is monitored by the Company and procedures are in place to minimize this exposure. Such agreements also require the Company to collateralize counterparties in circumstances wherein the fair value of the derivatives result in loss to the Company.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
Other provisions of such agreements include the definition of certain events that may lead to the declaration of default and/or the early termination of the derivative transaction(s):
● | If the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness (exclusive of deposit obligations), then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. |
● | If a merger occurs that materially changes the Company's creditworthiness in an adverse manner. |
● | If certain specified adverse regulatory actions occur, such as the issuance of a Cease and Desist Order, or citations for actions considered Unsafe and Unsound or that may lead to the termination of deposit insurance coverage by the FDIC. |
The Bank also issues letters of credit, which are conditional commitments that guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved and collateral obtained in issuing letters of credit are essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to our customers. In addition to customer related commitments, the Company is responsible for letters of credit commitments that relate to properties held in OREO. The following table represents the Company’s contractual commitments due to letters of credit as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019.

As of January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, and per CECL guidance, the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $1.7 million. As of September 30, 2020, the Company evaluated current market conditions, including the impacts related to COVID-19 and market interest rates during the third quarter of 2020, and based on that analysis under CECL methodology, the Company recorded a reversal of the provision for credit losses related to unfunded commitments of $980,000. The reduction in the ACL for unfunded commitments in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the prior quarter end, is primarily related to a decrease in the commercial unfunded commitments funding rate assumptions based on our analysis of the last 12 months of utilization. The Company will continue to assess the credit risk at least quarterly, and adjust the allowance for unfunded commitments, which is carried within other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet, as needed, with the appropriate offsetting entry to the provision for credit losses on our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Recent Events—COVID-19
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which was declared a national emergency in the United States in March 2020, continues to create extensive disruptions to the global economy and financial markets and to businesses and the lives of individuals throughout the world. In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level of economic activity in our markets. Federal and state governments have taken, and may continue to take, unprecedented actions to contain the spread of the disease, including quarantines, travel bans, shelter-in-place orders, closures of businesses and schools, fiscal stimulus, and legislation designed to deliver monetary aid and other relief to businesses and individuals impacted by the pandemic. Although in various locations certain activity restrictions have been relaxed and businesses and schools have reopened with some level of success, in many states and localities the number of individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 has increased significantly, which may cause a freezing or, in certain cases, a reversal of previously announced relaxation of activity restrictions and may prompt the need for additional aid and other forms of relief.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is fluid and continues to evolve. The unprecedented and rapid spread of COVID-19 and its associated impacts on trade (including supply chains and export levels), travel, employee productivity, unemployment, consumer spending, and other economic activities has resulted in less economic activity, lower bank equity market valuations and significant volatility and disruption in financial markets. In addition, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, market interest rates have declined significantly, with the 10-year Treasury bond falling below 1.00% on March 3, 2020, for the first time, and declining further to 0.65% as of June 30, 2020. On March 3, 2020, the Federal Open Market Committee reduced the targeted federal funds interest rate range by 50 basis points to 1.00% to 1.25%. This range was further reduced to 0% to 0.25% percent on March 16, 2020. These reductions in interest rates and the other effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have had, and are expected to continue to have, possibly materially, an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations is currently uncertain and will depend on various developments and other factors, including, among others, the duration and scope of the pandemic, as well as governmental, regulatory and private sector responses to the pandemic, and the associated impacts on the economy, financial markets and our customers, employees and vendors.
42
Our business, financial condition and results of operations generally rely upon the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans, the value of collateral underlying our secured loans, and demand for loans and other products and services we offer, which are highly dependent on the business environment in our primary markets where we operate and in the United States as a whole.
Temporary Operational Changes
We have taken a number of steps to protect our employees, customers and communities. In March 2020, as part of our efforts to exercise social distancing, we closed all of our banking lobbies (other than by appointment) conducted most of our business through drive-thru tellers and through electronic and online means. At this time, our lobbies have been reopened, but we encourage customers to use other means to conduct their banking, and are following social distancing and personal protective protocols as directed by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. In addition, a majority of our workforce has been working from home since mid-March 2020, and we expect this to continue through the end of 2020.
Results of Operation and Financial Condition
We are monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operation and financial condition. While the pandemic has not yet had a significant impact to our financial condition as of September 30, 2020, in the form of incurred losses or communications from our borrowers that significant losses were imminent, we nevertheless determined it prudent to increase our provision for credit losses in anticipation of continued market risk and uncertainty at this time. Our provision for credit losses was $8.0 million for the first quarter of 2020, which was impacted by both our adoption of the new CECL methodology and the expected impact, as of March 31, 2020, of the COVID-19 pandemic and market interest rate reductions. Our provision for credit losses was $300,000 for the third quarter of 2020, as we continued to forecast an increase in future expected credit losses due to the ongoing impact of the pandemic. Periods ending after September 30, 2020 may also be materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
We also adjust our investment securities portfolio to market each period end and review for any impairment that would require a provision for credit losses. At this time, we have determined there is no need for a provision for credit losses related to our investment securities portfolio. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize impairments in the future on the securities we hold as well as experience reductions in other comprehensive income. We cannot currently determine the ultimate impact of the pandemic on the long-term value of our portfolio.
As of September 30, 2020, we had $18.6 million of goodwill. At each quarter end in 2020, we have considered whether a quantitative assessment of our goodwill was required because of the significant economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. At September 30, 2020, we determined no goodwill impairment was required. However, further delayed recovery or further deterioration in market conditions related to the general economy, financial markets, and the associated impacts on our customers, employees and vendors, among other factors, could significantly impact the impairment analysis and may result in future goodwill impairment charges that, if incurred, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Lending Operations and Accommodations to Borrowers
To more fully support our customers during the pandemic, we established client assistance programs, including offering commercial, consumer, and mortgage loan payment deferrals for certain clients. During the 2020 year to date period, we executed 468 of these deferrals on loan balances of $226.2 million. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in March 2020, these short term deferrals were not considered troubled debt restructurings. As of September 30, 2020, 372 loans previously in deferral status, representing loan balances of $172.1 million, had resumed payments. We also suspended late fees for consumer loans through June 30, 2020, and, although consumer late fees have been reinstated, we will continue to evaluate any late fee suspension based on the borrower’s financial situation and prior payment history. We also paused new foreclosure and repossession actions through September 30, 2020, and will continue to re-evaluate these activities based on the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. These programs may negatively impact our revenue and other results of operations in the near term and, if not effective in mitigating the effect of COVID-19 on our customers, may adversely affect our business and results of operations more substantially over a longer period of time. Future governmental actions may require these and other types of customer-related responses.
We are also participating in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES” Act). As of August 10, 2020, the date of the conclusion of the SBA program offering, we had processed 746 loan applications for the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), representing a total of $136.7 million. In early October, we started the application process for PPP loan forgiveness, and expect this process to continue through the remainder of 2020, with funds to be received from the SBA for the forgiven loans well into 2021. In addition, as of September 30, 2020, we had originated one loan for $125,000 under the Main Street Lending Program. We remain ready to continue to fund eligible client requests if Congress appropriates additional funds.
43
Capital and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2020, all of our capital ratios were in excess of all regulatory requirements. While we believe that we have sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, our reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by credit losses.
We believe there could be potential stresses on liquidity management as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and our participation in the PPP. As customers manage their own liquidity stress, we could experience an increase in the utilization of existing lines of credit.
The Federal Reserve Bank has provided a lending facility that will allow us to obtain funding specifically for loans that we make under the PPP (the “PPPLF”), which will allow us to retain existing sources of liquidity for our traditional operations. PPP loans will be pledged as collateral on any of our borrowings under the Federal Reserve Bank’s lending facility. These factors, together or in combination with other events or occurrences that may not yet be known or anticipated, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have not yet participated in the PPPLF program, but have the ability to do so should the need arise.
We have also developed new processes to monitor our liquidity on a daily basis, and have run stress testing based on various economic assumptions under stress and severe stress scenarios. In addition, management continues to communicate each week in structured meetings with key staff to ensure all current events related to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as federal government stimulus check receipt, and PPP loan fundings and the forgiveness application process, are managed appropriately.
Financial Overview
Our community-focused banking franchise experienced growth in total loans in the third quarter of 2020, compared to both the year ended December 31, 2019, and the third quarter of 2019, and we believe we are positioned for further moderate loan growth as we continue to serve our customers’ needs in a competitive economic environment. Given the ongoing, dynamic and unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is difficult to predict the full impact the pandemic will have on our business; however, we expect the pandemic will make it challenging for us to attain the levels of profitability and growth we have experienced in the past five years. We are continuing to seek to provide value to our customers and the communities in which we operate, by executing on growth opportunities in our local markets and developing new banking relationships, while ensuring the safety and soundness of our Bank, our customers and our employees during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The following provides an overview of some of the factors impacting our financial performance for the three month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to the like period ended September 30, 2019:
● | Net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $10.3 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to $12.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019. |
● | Net interest and dividend income was $22.5 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $24.8 million for the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in 2020 was primarily due to the year over year decline in market interest rates, which negatively impacted loan and security income, despite growth in our loan portfolio of $130.5 million in the same period. |
● | A provision for credit losses of $300,000 was recorded for the third quarter of 2020, consisting of $1.3 million related to loans and leases and a $980,000 reversal related to unfunded commitments, compared to a provision for loan and lease losses of $550,000 in the third quarter of 2019. We adopted the new current expected credit losses accounting standard, or CECL, effective January 1, 2020, which measures the allowance based on management’s best estimate of lifetime expected credit losses inherent in our lending activities, which resulted in a $5.9 million allowance for credit losses related to loans and a $1.7 million allowance for credit losses related to unfunded commitments as of January 1, 2020. The provision expense recorded in 2020 was impacted by both the new CECL methodology applied and the expected impact, as of September 30, 2020, of the COVID-19 pandemic on future losses. |
● | Noninterest income was $11.7 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $11.9 million for the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.5 million reduction in securities gains, net, due to sales in the third quarter of 2019 and no like sales in the current period, as well as reductions stemming from COVID-19 related impacts in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, including a $698,000 decrease in service charges on deposits due to a reduction in overdraft fees. Partially offsetting these decreases were interest rate driven growth in net gain on sales of mortgage loans, as |
44
proceeds from mortgages sold in the third quarter of 2020 totaled $116.5 million, compared to $63.3 million in the third quarter of 2019, resulting in an increase in noninterest income of $3.2 million. A reduction in mark to market losses on mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) of $786,000 in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, and a net increase in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) of $192,000 for the third quarter of 2020, compared the third quarter of 2019, also mitigated the overall decrease in noninterest income for the quarter year over year. |
● | Noninterest expense was $20.3 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $20.0 million for the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $312,000, or 1.6%. The increase in 2020 was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits expense driven by an increase in full-time equivalent employees in 2020, annual merit increases in early 2020, and higher employee insurance costs, and an increase in FDIC insurance expense related to an accrual reversal in the third quarter of 2019. Partially offsetting these increases were reductions in occupancy, furniture and equipment expense, computer and data processing expense and advertising expense, as we reduced our marketing efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. |
● | The provision for income taxes was $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2019. Pretax income was $13.6 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $16.2 million for the third quarter of 2019. |
● | Asset quality remained consistent with nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans remaining relatively steady at 1.0% as of September 30, 2020, 0.8% as of December 31, 2019, and 0.7% as of September 30, 2019. |
● | During the third quarter of 2020, we repurchased 137,756 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $8.34 per share pursuant to our stock repurchase program. |

Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared based on the application of accounting policies in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the banking industry. These policies require the reliance on estimates and assumptions, which may prove inaccurate or are subject to variations. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Changes in underlying factors, assumptions, or estimates could have a material impact on our future financial condition and results of operations.
Of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we have identified certain items as critical accounting policies based on the associated estimates, assumptions, judgments and complexity. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Determining the allowance for loan and lease losses has historically been identified as a critical accounting policy. On January 1, 2020, we adopted the new CECL accounting methodology which requires entities to estimate and recognize an allowance for lifetime expected credit losses for loans and other financial assets measured at amortized cost. Previously, an allowance for loan and lease losses was recognized based on probable incurred losses. The accounting estimates relating to the allowance for credit losses is also a “critical accounting policy” as:
● | changes in the provision for credit losses can materially affect our financial results; |
● | estimates relating to the allowance for credit losses require us to project future borrower performance, including cash flows, delinquencies and charge-offs, along with, when applicable, collateral values, based on a reasonable and supportable forecast period utilizing forward-looking economic scenarios in order to estimate probability of default and loss given default; and |
● | the allowance for credit losses is influenced by factors outside of our control such as industry and business trends, geopolitical events and the effects of laws and regulations as well as economic conditions such as trends in housing prices, interest rates, GDP, inflation, energy prices and unemployment; and |
● | considerable judgment is required to determine whether the models used to generate the allowance for credit losses produce an estimate that is sufficient to encompass the current view of lifetime expected credit losses. |
Because our estimates of the allowance for credit losses involve judgment and are influenced by factors outside our control, there is uncertainty inherent in these estimates. Our estimate of lifetime expected credit losses is inherently uncertain because it is highly sensitive to changes in economic conditions and other factors outside of our control. Changes in such estimates could significantly impact our allowance and provision for credit losses. See Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Changes in Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for a discussion of our Allowance for Credit Losses.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report contains references to financial measures that are not defined in GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures include the presentation of net interest income and net interest margin on a tax equivalent (“TE”) basis, our adjusted efficiency ratio, our tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, and our core net interest margin on a TE basis. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures (a) provides important supplemental information that contributes to a proper understanding of our operating performance, (b) enables a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business, and (c) allows investors to evaluate our performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry, bank stock analysts, and bank regulators. Management uses non-GAAP measures as follows: in the preparation of our operating budgets, monthly financial performance reporting, and in our presentation to investors of our performance. However, we acknowledge that these non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to our GAAP results. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below or alongside the first instance where each non-GAAP financial measure is used.

Results of Operations
Overview
Three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Our income before taxes was $13.6 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to $16.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. This $2.6 million decrease in pretax income was primarily due to the $2.3 million decrease in net interest and dividend income in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019. Also contributing to the decline in pretax income in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, was a $248,000 reduction in noninterest income and a $312,000 increase in noninterest expense. These negative variances were partially offset by a $250,000 reduction in the provision for credit losses for the year over year quarter. We adopted the new CECL methodology effective January 1, 2020, which requires us to estimate and recognize an allowance for lifetime expected credit losses, and we recorded provision expense of $10.1 million during the first two quarters of 2020, due to the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related market interest rate reductions. Our provision build in the first and second quarters of 2020 allowed us to record a lower provision of $300,000 in the third quarter of 2020, compared to a $550,000 provision for loan and lease losses in the third quarter of 2019, under the incurred loss model. Our net income was $10.3 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020, compared to net income of $12.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019.
Net interest and dividend income was $22.5 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $24.8 million in the third quarter of 2019. The $2.3 million decrease was primarily driven by a $4.4 million decrease in interest and dividend income in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, driven by the reduction in market interest rates on loans and securities. Loan growth of $130.5 million was recorded in the year over year period, but interest income on loans declined $3.1 million from the quarter ended September 30, 2019 to September 30, 2020. Securities available-for-sale decreased $40.0 million as of September 30, 2020, compared to September 30, 2019, which exacerbated the reduction in securities related income of $1.2 million in the same year over year period. Partially offsetting the decrease in interest and dividend income was a $2.1 million reduction in total interest expense in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to a reduction in interest expense of $1.0 million on deposits, $405,000 on other short-term borrowings, and $648,000 on junior subordinated debentures, due to the redemption of the Old Second Capital Trust I trust preferred securities and related subordinated debentures in the first quarter of 2020.
Management has remained diligent in reviewing our loan portfolio to analyze and determine if charge-offs are required. Average loan growth, including loans held for sale, in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, totaled $153.5 million, stemming from 746 PPP loans originated in the second and third quarters of 2020 totaling $136.7 million, as well as organic growth primarily in our commercial, leases, and commercial real estate-investor portfolios.
Nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Our income before taxes was $26.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $39.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This $13.4 million decrease in pretax income was primarily due to a $9.0 million increase in provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, due both to our adoption of the new CECL methodology effective January 1, 2020 and the expected impact, as of September 30, 2020, of the COVID-19 pandemic and related market interest rate reductions. Our net income was $19.8 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net income of $29.9 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Net interest and dividend income was $67.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $73.6 million for the same period of 2019. The decrease in net interest and dividend income was primarily due to the impact of the reduction in market interest rates on loans and securities. Also impacting net income was a $2.1 million increase in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the like 2019 period, driven primarily by a $8.1 million increase in net gain on sales of mortgage loans, which more than offset the reduction year over year due to securities gains, net, of $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to securities losses, net, of $25,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and a $1.7 million reduction in service charges on deposits in the year over year period due to a decline in customer spending due to the COVID-19 pandemic and resultant decrease in overdraft and bounce fees. Noninterest expense increased $890,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due primarily to growth in salaries and employee benefits expense driven by an increase in full-time equivalent employees, annual merit increases and higher employee insurance costs, partially offset by reductions in computer and data processing and advertising expense.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, which is our primary source of earnings, is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, as well as accretion income on purchased loans, and interest incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. Net interest income depends upon the relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the ratio of interest-earning assets to total assets and of interest-bearing liabilities to total funding sources, and movements in market interest rates. Our net interest income can be significantly influenced by a variety of factors, including overall loan demand, economic conditions, credit risk, the amount of nonearning assets including nonperforming loans and OREO, the amounts of and rates at which assets and liabilities reprice, variances in prepayment of loans and securities, early withdrawal of deposits, exercise of call options on borrowings or securities, a general rise or decline in interest rates, changes in the slope of the yield-curve, and balance sheet growth or contraction.
Three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Our net interest and dividend income decreased by $2.3 million, to $22.5 million, for the third quarter of 2020, from $24.8 million for the third quarter of 2019. This decline was attributable to the $4.4 million, or 14.9%, decrease in interest and dividend income for the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019, partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in interest expense. Net interest and dividend income for the third quarter of 2020 reflected a decrease of $198,000, or 0.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2020.
Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2020 were $2.77 billion, reflecting an increase of $102.3 million, or 3.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2020, and an increase of $349.2 million, or 14.4%, compared to the third quarter of 2019. Total average loans, including loans held-for-sale, totaled $2.05 billion in the third quarter of 2020, which reflected a decrease of $3.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2020, and an increase of $153.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2019. The growth in average loan balances year over year was primarily due to an increase in commercial loans related to PPP loan disbursements and lease and commercial real estate-investor loans stemming from organic growth. This growth in loan volumes was offset by the reduction in market interest rates over the past year, which resulted in a decrease in interest income of $3.1 million related to loans in the year over year period. For the third quarter of 2020, the yield on average loans decreased to 4.29%, compared to the yield on average loans of 4.40% for the second quarter of 2020, and 5.27% for the third quarter of 2019. Securities also reflected a reduction in interest income, due to both decreases in market interest rates over the past year and volumes used to fund loan growth. Total average securities for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $4.3 million from the second quarter of 2020, and decreased $45.6 million from the third quarter of 2019. The yield on average securities declined to 2.78% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 3.07% for the second quarter of 2020 and 3.59% for third quarter of 2019.
Average interest bearing liabilities increased $44.6 million, or 2.6%, in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the second quarter of 2020, and increased $71.5 million, or 4.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The growth in average interest bearing deposits of $37.4 million from the prior quarter was due to seasonal deposit fluctuations from income tax refunds, commercial deposit build for projects to be deployed later in the year, and growth in depositor liquidity due to market uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The growth in average interest bearing deposits of $142.0 million from the third quarter of 2019 was primarily due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which also impacted the $240.9 million of growth in noninterest bearing deposits for the same period, as reductions in market interest rates over the past year have provided less incentive to maintain funds in interest bearing deposits.
Average other short-term borrowings, which consist of FHLBC advances, decreased $192,000 in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the second quarter of 2020, and decreased $67.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2019. We drew on a $4.0 million, zero interest, 360 day advance offered by the FHLB to its members under a COVID-19 liquidity program in the third quarter of 2020. The average rate paid on short-term FHLBC advances was impacted by the reduction in interest rates in 2020, resulting in an average rate of 1.16% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 1.63% for the second quarter of 2020, and 2.26% for the third quarter of 2019. As of September 30, 2020, notes payable and other borrowings consisted of one long-term FHLBC advance of $6.5 million that we acquired in our acquisition of ABC Bank, and $18.0 million outstanding on a term note with a correspondent bank originated in the first quarter of 2020 to fund our redemption of the Old Second Capital Trust I trust preferred securities and related junior subordinated debentures of $32.6 million. This redemption occurred in March 2020 and was the primary cause of the decrease of 201 basis points in the cost of the average junior subordinated debentures for the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019. The rate paid on the redeemed junior subordinated debentures was 7.8%, in comparison to the rate to be paid going forward on the newly executed $20.0 million term note of one month Libor plus 175 basis points.
Our net interest margin, expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, was 3.23% for the third quarter of 2020, reflecting a 19 basis point decrease from the second quarter of 2020, and an 83 basis point decrease from the third quarter of 2019. Our net interest margin,
48
on a tax-equivalent (TE) basis, expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, was 3.28% for the third quarter of 2020, reflecting a 20 basis point decrease from the second quarter of 2020, and an 86 basis point decrease from the third quarter of 2019. The average tax-equivalent yield on earning assets decreased to 3.65% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 3.93% for the second quarter of 2020, and 4.90% for the third quarter of 2019. The decreases in net interest margin and the yield on average earning assets for the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, was primarily attributable to a decline in security volumes and interest rate reductions which impacted loans and securities in the third quarter of 2020. Average PPP loans for the third quarter of 2020 totaled $136.3 million, which resulted in a reduction to our net interest margin (TE) of six basis points for the quarter as these loans were issued at a 1.00% interest rate, plus origination fees, net of costs. The cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities was 0.58% for the third quarter of 2020, 0.72% for the second quarter of 2020, and 1.11% for the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in our cost of funds in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by a full quarter of impact of interest rate reductions on our deposits. The decrease in our cost of funds in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by a decline in the rates paid on deposits, a decline in volume and rates paid on short-term borrowings, and the redemption of our junior subordinated debentures in the first quarter of 2020 which resulted in the average yield on our junior subordinated debentures of 4.40% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 6.41% in the prior year like quarter.
Nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Our net interest and dividend income decreased by $5.7 million to $67.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $73.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This decline was attributable to a $9.7 million, or 11.1%, decrease in interest and dividend income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, partially offset by a $4.0 million decrease in interest expense.
Average earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $2.63 billion, reflecting an increase of $197.0 million, or 8.1%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The yield on average earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 4.02%, compared to 4.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Total average loans, including loans held-for-sale, totaled $2.02 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which reflected an increase of $119.5 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The growth in average loan balances was more than offset by market interest rate reductions, which resulted in a $6.1 million decrease in loan interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the like 2019 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, yields on average securities decreased by 71 basis points and yields on average loans decreased by 72 basis points, each as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due primarily to the falling interest rate environment. Average interest earning deposits with financial institutions increased $128.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the prior year like period as consumer spending declined year over year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which increased our liquidity.
Average interest bearing liabilities decreased $23.2 million, or 1.4%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease was due to reductions in average other short-term borrowings of $75.7 million, which primarily consist of FHLBC advances, and a reduction in average junior subordinated debentures of $24.8 million due to the redemption of the trust preferred securities and the related $32.6 million of subordinated debentures issued by Old Second Capital Trust I in March 2020. The rate on our junior subordinated debentures was 7.85% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 6.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as $635,000 of deferred issuance costs was expensed upon the redemption in 2020. Average interest bearing deposits increased by $61.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, but the reduction in market interest rates resulted in a 16 basis point reduction in the cost of interest bearing deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the like 2019 period. Average noninterest bearing deposits increased $167.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as customers spent less as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 3.44% compared to 4.04% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting a 60 basis point decrease. Our net interest margin (TE) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 3.50% compared to 4.13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting a 63 basis point decrease. The decrease in net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, was due primarily to reductions in the market interest rates as well as the issuance of $136.7 million of PPP loans at 1.00%, and the growth of our liquidity with an increase in cash and due from banks, which have not yet been reinvested into higher yielding assets. We are currently assessing potential investment opportunities for this excess liquidity. Core net interest margin (TE), a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes PPP loans, was 3.54% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting a four basis point reduction from net interest margin (TE) for the same period. These reductions to the net interest margin were partially offset by reductions in rates paid on deposits, as well as reductions in volumes and rates paid on borrowings, and growth in noninterest bearing deposits, which drove down our overall cost of funds.

We continue to observe competitive pressure to maintain reduced interest rates on loans retained at renewal. While our loan prices are targeted to achieve certain returns on equity, significant competition for commercial and industrial loans as well as commercial real estate loans has put pressure on loan yields, and our stringent underwriting standards limit our ability to make higher-yielding loans.
The following tables set forth certain information relating to our average consolidated balance sheet and reflect the yield on average earning assets and cost of average interest bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. These yields reflect the related interest, on an annualized basis, divided by the average balance of assets or liabilities over the applicable period. Average balances are derived from daily balances. For purposes of discussion, net interest income and net interest income to total earning assets in the following tables have been adjusted to a non-GAAP TE basis using a marginal rate of 21% in 2020 and 2019 to more appropriately compare returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to other earning assets.

Noninterest income increased $990,000, or 9.26%, in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the second quarter of 2020, and decreased $248,000, or 2.08%, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The increase in the linked quarters was primarily driven by an increase of $615,000 in net gain on sales of mortgage loans and a reduction of $285,000 in the mark to market losses on MSRs in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the prior quarter. Service charges on deposits also increased in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the prior quarter, as customer spending increased and overdraft and bounces fees increased commensurately.
The $248,000 decrease in noninterest income in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by $3.5 million of pretax securities gain, net, recorded in the third quarter of 2019, and no like transactions in the third quarter of 2020. In addition, service charges on deposits decreased $698,000 in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the year over year period due to the reduction in customer spending and resultant fee income due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Materially offsetting these decreases in noninterest income was a $4.2 million increase in total residential mortgage banking revenue in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to the large volume of mortgage originations and refinances in the lower interest rate environment. The cash surrender value of BOLI also increased $192,000 in the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to market interest rate fluctuations.

Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $2.1 million, or 8.1%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This increase was primarily driven by a $9.0 million increase in total residential mortgage banking revenue stemming from the falling interest rate environment and the resultant net gain on sales of mortgage loans and secondary mortgage fees. Partially offsetting these increases were a reduction in service charges on deposits and card related income due to reductions in customer activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a $4.5 million decrease in security (losses) gains, net, and a $253,000 reduction in trust income primarily due to a decline in estate fees year over year.

1 The efficiency ratio shown in the table above is a GAAP financial measure calculated as noninterest expense, excluding amortization of core deposits and OREO expenses, divided by the sum of net interest income and total noninterest income less any BOLI death benefit recorded, net gains or losses on securities and mark to market gains or losses on MSRs.
2 The adjusted efficiency ratio shown in the table above is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as noninterest expense, excluding amortization of core deposits and OREO expenses, divided by the sum of net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis, total noninterest income less net gains or losses on securities and mark to market gains or losses on MSRs, and includes a tax equivalent adjustment on the change in cash surrender value of BOLI.
See the section entitled “Reconciliation of Adjusted Efficiency Ratio Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 57 for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.
Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2020 increased $1.4 million, or 7.3%, compared to the second quarter of 2020, and increased $312,000, or 1.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The linked quarter increase is primarily attributable to a $1.2 million increase in salaries and employee benefits stemming from deferrals of new loan origination costs related to PPP loans in the second quarter of 2020, which reduced expense in the second quarter.
The year over year increase in noninterest expense is primarily attributable to a $524,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits due to an increase in full-time equivalent employees, annual merit increases in early 2020, and higher employee insurance costs. In addition, a $305,000 increase in FDIC insurance due to an accrual reversal in the third quarter of 2019, and a $99,000 increase in other real estate owned expense, net, due to property valuation write-downs. Partially offsetting the year over year increases were a $232,000 decrease in occupancy, furniture and equipment expense, a $264,000 decrease in computer and data processing expense, and a $298,000 decrease in advertising expense due to a reduction in our marketing efforts as a result of the pandemic.

See the section entitled “Reconciliation of Adjusted Efficiency Ratio Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 57 for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent.
Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, increased $890,000, or 1.5%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in salaries and employee benefits related to an increase in full-time equivalent employees, annual merit increases in early 2020, and higher employee insurance costs; a $227,000 increase in FDIC insurance related to assessment credits that were applied in 2019; a $252,000 increase in card related expenses; and a $181,000 increase in other real estate owned expense, net, due to a higher amount of gains recorded in 2019.
Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in computer and data processing expense of $538,000, advertising expense of $747,000, and other expense of $128,000. Computer and data processing expense declined year over year due to a new core system contract that we executed in the last half of 2019, which included cost savings, as well as voice and data services price reductions negotiated over the past year. Advertising expenses decreased year over year due to a reduction in our marketing efforts as a result of the pandemic. Other expense decreased year over year due to a reduction in employee travel costs primarily due to the pandemic, and a reduction in consulting and management fees.

Income Taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2020 on $13.6 million of pretax income, compared to income tax expense of $3.1 million on $12.4 million of pretax income in the second quarter of 2020, and $4.0 million of income tax expense on $16.2 million of pretax income in the third quarter of 2019. The effective tax rate was 24.7% for the third quarter of 2020, 25.4% for the second quarter of 2020, and 24.9% for the third quarter of 2019. We recorded income tax expense of $6.2 million on $26.0 million of pretax income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to income tax expense of $9.5 million on $39.4 million of pretax income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which reflected effective tax rates of 23.9% and 24.1%, respectively.
Income tax expense reflected all relevant statutory tax rates and GAAP accounting. There were no significant changes in our ability to utilize the deferred tax assets during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. We had no valuation reserve on the deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2020.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $339.3 million to $2.97 billion at September 30, 2020, from $2.64 billion at December 31, 2019, due primarily to an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $262.5 million and loan growth of $99.5 million, partially offset by a reduction of $36.2 million in securities available-for-sale. We are currently assessing potential investment opportunities for this excess liquidity. Total deposits were $2.48 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $352.5 million from December 31, 2019, primarily due to increases in noninterest bearing demand accounts, savings accounts, and NOW accounts due to a decrease in consumer spending during the COVID-19 pandemic, and federal stimulus funds received by many depositors.

2 As discussed below, for periods before our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, PCI loans and their related deferred loan costs (now PCD loans) were excluded from nonperforming loan disclosures and were therefore separately reported. After the adoption of CECL, all PCD loans are now included within each relevant loan type and are not separately reported as PCI loans, because such loans are now included within our nonperforming loan disclosures, if such loans otherwise meet the definition of a nonperforming loan.
59
Total loans were $2.03 billion as of September 30, 2020, an increase of $99.5 million from December 31, 2019. The increase in total loans in the first nine months of 2020 was due primarily to our origination of 746 PPP loans that totaled $136.7 million within commercial loans, as well as organic growth in our leases, commercial real estate-investor, and construction portfolios, partially offset by reductions in our commercial real estate-owner occupied, residential real estate-investor, residential real estate-owner occupied, HELOC and HELOC–purchased portfolios. Total loans increased $130.5 million from September 30, 2019 to September 30, 2020, due primarily to loan growth in our commercial loans due to PPP loan originations, leases, commercial real estate-investor, and multifamily portfolios, partially offset by reductions in our residential real estate-investor, residential real estate-owner occupied, HELOC, and HELOC-purchased portfolios. As required by CECL, the balance (or amortized cost basis) of PCD loans are carried on a gross basis (rather than net of the associated credit loss estimate), and the expected credit losses for PCD loans are estimated and separately recognized as part of the ACL. Accordingly, at January 1, 2020, $2.5 million of purchase accounting adjustments related to PCD loans were reclassified to the ACL from loans, resulting in an increase to total PCD loans.
The quality of our loan portfolio is impacted not only by our credit decisions but also by the economic health of the communities in which we operate. Since we are located in a corridor with significant open space and undeveloped real estate, real estate lending (including commercial real estate, construction, residential, multifamily, and HELOCs) has been and continues to be a sizeable portion of our portfolio. These categories comprised 71.4% of the portfolio as of September 30, 2020, compared to 75.4% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2019. We continue to oversee and seek to manage our loan portfolio in accordance with interagency guidance on risk management.
Asset Quality
The provision for credit losses, which includes a provision for losses on unfunded commitments, is a charge to earnings to maintain the ACL at a level consistent with management’s assessment of expected losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. During the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, or CECL.
We recorded a $1.3 million provision for credit losses on loans and a $980,000 reversal of provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments for the third quarter of 2020, compared to a $550,000 provision for loan and lease losses for the third quarter of 2019. In the third quarter of 2020, we determined provision expense was necessary, after considering our net recoveries of $365,000 for the quarter, due to the guidance under the newly adopted CECL methodology, which requires a provision based on future expected credit losses, as compared to the previously used incurred loss model. Runoffs on our acquired loan portfolios are trending with expectations. Management estimates the amount of provision required on a quarterly basis and records the appropriate provision expense, or release of expense, to maintain an adequate reserve for all potential and estimated credit losses on loans and leases. In addition, we established a separate ACL on unfunded commitments of $1.7 million under CECL guidelines as of January 1, 2020, and we recorded a $734,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments in the second quarter of 2020. During our third quarter projected credit losses assessment, we determined the utilization rate on lines during the past 12 months had declined, resulting in a reversal of $980,000 of ACL related to unfunded commitments for the quarter. The increase in the total provision for credit losses stems from our CECL model calculations due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans, performing restructured accruing loans and loans 90 days or greater past due. Remediation work continues in all segments. Nonperforming loans increased by $5.0 million to $20.8 million at September 30, 2020, from $15.8 million at December 31, 2019. Purchased credit deteriorated loans, or PCD loans, are purchased loans that, as of the date of acquisition, the Company determined had experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. Before we adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, PCD loans were referred to as purchased credit impaired loans, or PCI loans, and such PCI loans and their related deferred loan costs were excluded from our nonperforming loan disclosures, as long as the cash flows on such loans and the timing of such cash flows continued to be estimable and probable of collection. However, after we adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, PCD loans and their related deferred loan costs are now included in our nonperforming loan disclosures, if such loans otherwise meet the definition of a nonperforming loan. As of the date of CECL adoption, $2.5 million of the credit related component of the purchase accounting adjustment on PCI loans was reclassified to the ACL, which comprises half of the $5.0 million increase in nonperforming loans since December 31, 2019. Credit metrics, excluding the impact of this reclassification, continue to be relatively stable regarding nonperforming loan levels, and management is carefully monitoring loans considered to be in a classified status. Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans increased to 1.0% as of September 30, 2020, from 0.8% as of December 31, 2019, and 0.7% September 30, 2019.

The net recoveries for the third quarter of 2020 were primarily due to a recovery on one large charge-off recorded earlier in 2020.

2 Due to the adoption of CECL, as of January 1, 2020, we no longer have PCI loans.
Classified loans include nonaccrual, performing troubled debt restructurings and all other loans considered substandard. Classified assets include both classified loans and OREO. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by either the current net worth and ability to meet payment obligations of the obligor, or by the collateral pledged to secure the loan, if any. These loans have a well-defined
62
weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and carry the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if deficiencies remain uncorrected.
Total classified loans increased as of September 30, 2020, from the levels at December 31, 2019, and June 30, 2019, primarily due to inclusion of PCD loans in their respective segments in 2020 due to the adoption of CECL. Total classified assets, including PCD loans, reflected a decrease as of September 30, 2020, compared to the level at December 31, 2019, and the level one year ago. Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the ACL on loans as another measure of overall change in loan related asset quality, which is referred to as the “classified assets ratio.” The classified assets ratio was 12.95% for the period ended September 30, 2020, compared to 11.11% as of December 31, 2019, and 9.84% as of September 30, 2019. The increase in the classified assets ratio for the period ended September 30, 2020, compared to September 30, 2019, is also due to the inclusion of PCD loans in their respective segments within the calculation, as these loans were previously excluded. The increase in total PCD loans as of September 30, 2020, compared to December 31, 2019, is due to our reclassification of the credit-related component of the purchase accounting adjustments carried on former PCI loans to the ACL on January 1, 2020, the date we adopted the CECL methodology. The PCD balance of $10.6 million is now included within total classified assets, as applicable, under CECL guidance.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, (Day One), we recognized an increase in our ACL on outstanding loans of $5.9 million and an increase in our ACL on unfunded commitments of $1.7 million as a cumulative effect adjustment from change in accounting policies. Approximately $2.5 million of the increase to the ACL resulted from the transfer of the non-accretable purchase accounting adjustments on PCD loans. The Day One adjusting entries resulted in a $3.8 million reduction to retained earnings, and a deferred tax asset adjustment of $1.4 million. At September 30, 2020, the ACL on loans totaled $32.9 million, and the ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities, totaled $4.0 million. This reserve build was driven by $300,000 of provision expense and $365,000 of net recoveries in the third quarter of 2020, as well as $2.1 million of provision expense in the second quarter of 2020, and $8.0 million of provision expense in the first quarter of 2020, augmented by the previously mentioned impact of adopting CECL on January 1, 2020. The total increase in the ACL reflects forecasted credit deterioration due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant recession. Our ACL on loans to total loans was 1.6% as of September 30, 2020, compared to 1.0% at both December 31, 2019, and September 30, 2019. See Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Changes in Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for discussion of our ACL methodology on loans. Allocations of the ACL may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in our judgment, should be charged-off.

The coverage ratio of the ACL on loans to nonperforming loans was 158.0% as of September 30, 2020, which was an increase from the coverage ratio of 124.9% as of December 31, 2019, and an increase from 146.6% as of September 30, 2019. When measured as a percentage of average loans, our total ACL on loans was 1.62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 1.04% for the like period of September 30, 2019. This increase was driven by the adoption of CECL as of January 1, 2020.
We recorded PCD loans (formerly PCI loans), which refers to loans that showed evidence of deteriorated credit quality upon purchase, in our acquisition of ABC Bank. PCD loans totaled $10.6 million, net of purchase accounting adjustments, as of September 30, 2020, and the credit-related component of the purchase accounting adjustments on these loans, which totaled $2.5 million, was reclassified to ACL, per CECL guidance, on January 1, 2020. We perform re-estimations of cash flows on our PCD loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. Any decline in expected cash flows as a result of these re-estimations, due in any part to a change in credit, is deemed credit impairment, and recorded as provision for credit losses during the period.
64
In management’s judgment, an adequate ACL has been established to encompass the current lifetime expected credit losses at September 30, 2020, and general changes in lending policy, procedures and staffing, as well as other external factors, such as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there can be no assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the future, based on unforeseen economic events, changes in business climates and the condition of collateral at the time of default and repossession. Further delayed recovery or further deterioration in market conditions related to COVID-19 and the associated impacts on our customers, changes in business climates and the condition of collateral at the time of default or repossession may revise our current expectations of future credit losses in future reporting periods.
Other Real Estate Owned
As of September 30, 2020, OREO totaled $2.7 million, reflecting a $2.3 million reduction from the $5.0 million at December 31, 2019, and a $2.0 million reduction from the $4.7 million at September 30, 2019. There was one property addition of $314,000 to the OREO portfolio in the third quarter of 2020. There were seven property disposals totaling $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2020. Valuation write-downs occurred in the third quarter of 2020 which totaled $46,000, compared to $120,000 of OREO valuation write-downs in the fourth quarter of 2019, and $203,000 of valuation write-downs recorded in the third quarter of 2019.

In management’s judgment, the property valuation allowance as established presents OREO at current estimates of fair value less estimated costs to sell; however, there can be no assurance that additional losses will not be incurred on disposals or upon updates to valuations in the future. Of note, properties valued in total at $1.5 million, or approximately 55.8% of total OREO at September 30, 2020, have been in OREO for five years or more. The appropriate regulatory approval has been obtained for any OREO properties held in excess of five years.

These increases in the linked quarter as well as year over year periods were primarily due to federal stimulus funds received by depositors and a decrease in consumer spending due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition to deposits, we obtained funding from other sources in all periods presented. Securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $59.3 million at September 30, 2020, a $10.6 million, or 21.7%, increase from $48.7 million at December 31, 2019. We also had short-term borrowings of $6.1 million from the FHLBC at September 30, 2020, as compared to $48.5 million in short-term borrowings at December 31, 2019. Our notes payable and other borrowings is comprised of one remaining $6.5 million long-term FHLBC advance acquired in our ABC Bank acquisition, which matures on February 2, 2026, and $18.0 million outstanding on a $20.0 million term note originated with a correspondent bank in the first quarter of 2020, to facilitate the redemption of our Old Second Capital Trust I trust preferred securities and related junior subordinated debentures, completed on March 2, 2020. Notes payable and other borrowings of $24.5 million as of September 30, 2020, increased $17.8 million from December 31, 2019, and increased $15.6 million from September 30, 2019.
The Company is indebted on senior notes originated in December 2016, totaling $44.3 million, net of deferred issuance costs, as of September 30, 2020. These notes mature in December 2026, and include interest payable semi-annually at 5.75% for five years. Beginning December 2021, the interest becomes payable quarterly at three month LIBOR plus 385 basis points. The Company is also indebted on $25.8 million, net of deferred issuance costs, of junior subordinated debentures, which are related to the trust preferred securities issued by its statutory trust subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust II (“Trust II”). The Trust II issuance converted from fixed to floating rate at three month LIBOR plus 150 basis points on June 15, 2017. Upon conversion to a floating rate, we initiated a cash flow hedge which resulted in the total interest rate paid on this debt of 4.40% as of September 30, 2020, as compared to 6.77%, which was the rate paid during the period prior to the June 15, 2017, rate reset. The Company also redeemed $32.6 million of trust preferred securities issued by its statutory trust subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust I, on March 2, 2020, as noted above. The cash paid at redemption of $33.0 million included accrued interest of $438,000 on the debentures, and resulted in a payment of $10.13 per preferred share.
Capital
As of September 30, 2020, total stockholders’ equity was $296.3 million, which was an increase of $18.4 million from $277.9 million as of December 31, 2019. This increase is attributable to an increase in retained earnings of $15.1 million, comprised of net income year to date of $19.8 million, less a reduction to retained earnings of $3.8 million upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13 (CECL) as of January 1, 2020, and payment of $900,000 of dividends to our common stockholders in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. In addition, an increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $6.5 million was recorded due to a net increase in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities, net of unrealized losses on swaps. Total stockholders’ equity was reduced by an increase of $4.4 million to our treasury stock year to date 2020, primarily due to repurchases of our common shares pursuant to our stock repurchase program.
In the third quarter of 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, under which we were authorized to repurchase up to approximately 1.5 million shares (or approximately 5%) of our outstanding common stock through open market purchases, trading plans established in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means. The stock repurchase program expired on September 19, 2020; however, we received a notice of non-objection from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago to extend the previously authorized stock repurchase program through October 20, 2021. The actual means
66
and timing of any repurchases, quantity of purchased shares and prices will be, subject to certain limitations, at the discretion of management and will depend on a number of factors, including, without limitation, market prices of our common stock, general market and economic condition, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. These share purchases are anticipated to be funded by our cash on hand. During the third quarter of 2020, we repurchased 137,756 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $8.34 per share pursuant to our stock repurchase program. To date, we have repurchased 596,411 shares or our common stock at a weighted average price of $7.35 per share, under our stock repurchase program.

1 Amounts are shown inclusive of a capital conservation buffer of 2.50%. Under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement, the Company is not subject to the minimum capital adequacy and capital conservation buffer capital requirements at the holding company level, unless otherwise advised by the Federal Reserve (such capital requirements are applicable only at the Bank level). Although the minimum regulatory capital requirements are not applicable to the Company, we calculate these ratios for our own planning and monitoring purposes.
2 The prompt corrective action provisions are only applicable at the Bank level.
As part of its response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020, U.S. federal regulatory authorities issued an interim final rule that provides banking organizations that adopt CECL during the 2020 calendar year with the option to delay for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital relative to regulatory capital determined under the prior incurred loss methodology, followed by a three-year transition period to phase out the aggregate amount of the capital benefit provided during the initial two-year delay (i.e., a five-year transition in total). In connection with our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, we elected to utilize the five-year CECL transition. The cumulative amount that is not recognized in regulatory capital, in addition to the $3.8 million Day One impact of CECL adoption, will be phased in at 25% per year beginning January 1, 2022. As of September 30, 2020, the capital measures of the Company exclude $5.7 million, which is the Day One impact to retained earnings, and 25% of the $10.4 million increase, net of taxes, in the ACL in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, excluding PCD loans.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the minimum capital ratios to be deemed “well capitalized” and met the now fully phased-in capital conservation buffer requirements. In addition to the above regulatory ratios, our GAAP common equity to total assets ratio, which is used as a performance measurement for capital analysis and peer comparisons, decreased from 10.54% at December 31, 2019, to 9.96% at September 30, 2020. Our GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 9.32% at September 30, 2020, compared to 9.81% as of December 31, 2019. Our non-GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, which management also considers a valuable performance measurement for capital analysis, decreased from 9.83% at December 31, 2019, to 9.34% at September 30, 2020.
In November 2019, the federal banking agencies published final rules to provide an optional simplified measure of capital adequacy for qualifying community banking organizations, which we refer to as the community bank leverage ratio (“CBLR”) framework. Generally, under the CBLR framework, qualifying community banking organizations with total assets of less than $10 billion, and limited amounts of off-balance-sheet exposures and trading assets and liabilities, may elect whether to be subject to the CBLR framework if they have a
67
CBLR of greater than 9%. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to be subject to the CBLR framework and continue to meet all requirements under the framework would not be subject to risk-based or other leverage capital requirements and, in the case of an insured depository institution, would be considered to have met the well capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of the FDIC’s Prompt Corrective Action framework. The final rule became effective on January 1, 2020. We do not have any immediate plans to elect to use the community bank leverage ratio framework, but may make such an election in the future.

The non-GAAP intangible asset exclusion reflects the 80% core deposit limitation per Basel III guidelines within risk based capital calculations, and is useful for us when reviewing risk based capital ratios and equity performance metrics.
Liquidity
Liquidity is our ability to fund operations, to meet depositor withdrawals, to provide for customers’ credit needs, and to meet maturing obligations and existing commitments. Our liquidity principally depends on our cash flows from operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of deposits and borrowings, and our ability to borrow funds. We monitor our borrowing capacity at the FHLBC as part of our liquidity management process as supervised by our Asset and Liability Committee (“ALCO”) and reviewed by our Board of Directors. In addition, due to the potential impacts on our liquidity stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, our senior management team monitors cash balances daily to ensure we have adequate liquidity to meet our operational and financing needs. As of September 30, 2020, our cash on hand liquidity totaled $313.1 million, an increase of $262.5 million over cash balances held as of December 31, 2019.
Net cash inflows from operating activities were $16.8 million during the first nine months of 2020, compared with net cash inflows of $37.5 million in the same period of 2019. Funds used to originate loans held-for-sale, net of proceeds from sales of loans held-for-sale, were a source of inflows for the first nine months of 2020 and the like period of 2019. Interest paid, net of interest received, combined with changes in other assets and liabilities were a source of outflows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the like period of 2019. The management of investing and financing activities, as well as market conditions, determines the level and the stability of net interest cash flows. Management’s policy is to mitigate the impact of changes in market interest rates to the extent possible, as part of the balance sheet management process.
Net cash outflows from investing activities were $54.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net cash inflows of $74.6 million in the same period in 2019. In the first nine months of 2020, securities transactions accounted for net inflows of $45.0 million, and the principal change on loans accounted for net outflows of $100.4 million. In the first nine months of 2019, securities transactions accounted for net inflows of $77.1 million, and net principal on loans funded accounted for net outflows of $2.8 million. Proceeds from sales of OREO accounted for $3.1 million and $2.6 million in investing cash inflows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Net cash inflows from financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $300.2 million, compared with net cash outflows of $113.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net deposit inflows in the first nine months of 2020 were
68
$352.5 million compared to net deposit outflows of $42.1 million in the first nine months of 2019. Other short-term borrowings had net cash outflows of $42.4 million in the first nine months of 2020, and $65.5 million in the first nine months of 2019. Changes in securities sold under repurchase agreements accounted for $10.6 million and $2.2 million in net inflows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The redemption of our Old Second Capital Trust I trust preferred securities and related junior subordinated debentures resulted in cash outflows of $32.6 million in the first quarter of 2020, which was partially offset by a $20.0 million term note cash inflow which was originated to partially fund this trust preferred redemption; $18.0 million of this term note remains outstanding as of September 30, 2020.
Cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, totaled $313.1 million, as compared to $54.0 million as of September 30, 2019. In addition to cash and cash equivalents on hand or held as deposits with other financial institutions, we rely on funding sources from customer deposits, cash flows from securities available-for-sale and loans, and a line of credit with the FHLBC to meet potential liquidity needs. These sources of liquidity are immediately available to satisfy any funding requirements due to depositor or borrower demands through the ordinary course of our business. Additional sources of funding include a $20 million undrawn line of credit held by the Company with a third party financial institution, as well as unpledged securities available-for-sale.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
As part of our normal operations, we are subject to interest-rate risk on the assets we invest in (primarily loans and securities) and the liabilities we fund (primarily customer deposits and borrowed funds). Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair market values of our financial instruments, cash flows, and net interest income. Like most financial institutions, we have an exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates.
In the first quarter of 2020 the Federal Reserve cut the Fed Funds rate three times down to a target range of 0% to 0.25%. Additionally, the Federal Reserve has been aggressively purchasing various assets since March 2020 in an effort to stabilize the economy from the continuing effects of COVID-19. Overall, the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet has increased from about $4.2 trillion in early March 2020 to about $7.1 trillion as of September 30, 2020. The Federal Reserve has indicated that it expects the Fed Funds rate to remain in the 0% to 0.25% range through 2023 and possibly even longer. We manage interest rate risk within guidelines established by policy which are intended to limit the amount of rate exposure. In practice, we seek to manage our interest rate risk exposure well within our guidelines so that such exposure does not pose a material risk to our future earnings.
We manage various market risks in the normal course of our operations, including credit, liquidity risk, and interest-rate risk. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of our business activities and operations. In addition, since we do not hold a trading portfolio, we are not exposed to significant market risk from trading activities. Our interest rate risk exposures at September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, are outlined in the table below.
Our net income can be significantly influenced by a variety of external factors, including: overall economic conditions, policies and actions of regulatory authorities, the amounts of and rates at which assets and liabilities reprice, variances in prepayment of loans and securities other than those that are assumed, early withdrawal of deposits, exercise of call options on borrowings or securities, competition, a general rise or decline in interest rates, changes in the slope of the yield-curve, changes in historical relationships between indices (such as LIBOR and prime), and balance sheet growth or contraction. Our asset-liability committee seeks to manage interest rate risk under a variety of rate environments by structuring our balance sheet and off-balance sheet positions, which includes interest rate swap derivatives as discussed in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report. We seek to monitor and manage interest rate risk within approved policy guidelines and limits.
We use simulation analysis to quantify the impact of various rate scenarios on our net interest income. Specific cash flows, repricing characteristics, and embedded options of the assets and liabilities held by us are incorporated into the simulation model. Earnings at risk are calculated by comparing the net interest income of a stable interest rate environment to the net interest income of a different interest rate environment in order to determine the percentage change. As of December 31, 2019, we had modest amounts of earnings gains (in both dollars and percentage) should interest rates rise, and limited earnings reductions should interest rates fall. The projected increases in income across all up rate interest rate shock scenarios as of September 30, 2020 were considerably higher than those in December 31, 2019. This was primarily the result of updated assumptions in our asset liability management model associated with an updated deposit decay study, deposit beta study, and loan prepayment study. Additionally, large growth in non-maturity deposits since the beginning of the year also contributed to the increases. However, the September 30, 2020 net interest income sensitivity profile did not materially change from the June 30, 2020 result. The June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 percent change in net interest income projected varied by less than 0.5% for all interest rate shock scenarios. The general balance sheet composition of both assets and liabilities changed only
69
modestly during the quarter, which resulted in minimal change to our interest rate risk profile. Management still considers the current level of interest rate risk to be moderate but intends to continue looking for market opportunities to flatten its interest rate risk profile.
The following table summarizes the effect on annual income before income taxes based upon an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates of 0.5%, 1%, and 2% and no change in the slope of the yield curve. Due to the low interest rate environment, it was not possible to calculate certain down rate scenarios because rates would fall below zero in all down rate scenarios.

The amounts and assumptions used in the simulation model should not be viewed as indicative of expected actual results. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies. The above results do not take into account any management action to mitigate potential risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2020. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s internal controls were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified.
We adopted the new guidance under Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, (ASC Topic 326) “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” also known as Current Expected Credit Losses, or CECL, on January 1, 2020. The Company implemented new accounting processes and procedures, which required us to update our internal controls over accounting for the allowance for credit losses, and the related disclosures under the new guidance. As a result of the adoption of CECL, we implemented new internal controls designed to mitigate the risks associated with these new processes and to provide assurance at a reasonable level of the fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. There were no other changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries, from time to time, are involved in collection suits in the ordinary course of business against its debtors and are defendants in legal actions arising from normal business activities. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Bank or on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
Item 1.A. Risk Factors
Investing in shares of our common stock involves certain risks, including those identified and described in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as well as cautionary statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those under the caption “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” and set forth in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
Except as set forth in Part II, Item 1A of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and filed with the SEC on May 11, 2020, which is incorporated herein by this reference, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Stock Repurchases
In September 2019, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,494,826 shares of our common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). The Repurchase Program expired on September 19, 2020. However, on October 20, 2020, the Company received notice of non-objection from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago to extend the Repurchase Program through October 20, 2021. As of October 20, 2020, 898,415 shares remained available to be repurchased under the Repurchase Program. Repurchases by the Company under the Repurchase Program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, trading plans established in accordance with SEC rules, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means.
The actual means and timing of any repurchases, quantity of purchased shares and prices will be, subject to certain limitations, at the discretion of management and will depend on a number of factors, including, without limitation, market prices of our common stock, general market and economic conditions, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may be initiated, discontinued, suspended or restarted at any time provided that repurchases under the Repurchase Program after October 20, 2021, would require Federal Reserve non-objection or approval. We are not obligated to repurchase any shares under the Repurchase Program.

Item 5. Other Information
Amendment to Bylaws
Given the timing of the following amendment, the following information is included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Item 5.03 of Form 8-K, “Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year” in lieu of filing a Form 8-K.
On November 4, 2020, our board of directors amended and restated our Company’s bylaws (the “Amended Bylaws”), effective immediately. The Amended Bylaws replace and supersede in their entirety the then existing bylaws of the Company (the “Prior Bylaws”). Substantive amendments to the Prior Bylaws include:
Stockholder Proposals
Article II, Section 2.4 of the Prior Bylaws generally provided that a stockholder wishing to submit new business at an annual meeting of stockholders must provide a notice of such proposal at least 60 days in advance of the first anniversary date of the previous year’s annual meeting to be considered at the annual meeting. Article II, Section 2.4 of the Prior Bylaws required certain information to be provided by the stockholder making any such proposal.
Article II, Section 2.4 of the Amended Bylaws require additional information in the stockholder’s notice to the Company with respect to a stockholder proposal (other than a director nomination) for an annual meeting of stockholders, including, among other things, (a) the stockholder’s name and address; (b) information about the stockholder’s stock ownership in the Company and certain interests and relationships; and (c) a description of the business the stockholder desires to bring before the meeting. In connection with an annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholder generally must submit notice of such stockholder’s intentions to submit a proposal not earlier than 120 days and not later than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provide that, if the date of the annual meeting is moved to more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the anniversary date of the previous year’s meeting, for notice by the stockholder to be timely it must be delivered to us not earlier than 120 days prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than 90 days prior to the date of such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting, then the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company. Article II, Section 2.4 of the Amended Bylaws also eliminated a provision in the Prior Bylaws that allowed a stockholder to make a proposal at any time (including the date of the annual meeting) that would be discussed and considered at the annual meeting but not voted on until the subsequent annual meeting.
Director Nominations
Article II, Section 2.5 of the Prior Bylaws generally provided that a stockholder could nominate candidates for election to the Company’s board of directors if such nominations were made in writing to the Company not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days before the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Article II, Section 2.5 of the Prior Bylaws also required such stockholder’s notice to include certain information related to each proposed nominee, including (a) such nominee’s name, age, business address and residential address; (b) such nominee’s principal occupation; (c) certain information about the nominee’s stock ownership in the Company; and (d) any other information relating to such nominee that would be required to be disclosed on Schedule 13D pursuant to Regulation 13D-G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act. In addition, the stockholder giving the notice was required to provide their name and address, the name and principal business or residential address of any other beneficial stockholders known by such stockholder to support such nominees, and certain information about the their stock ownership in the Company and any other record or beneficial stockholders known by such stockholder to be supporting such nominee. Article II, Section 2.5 of the Prior Bylaws also included requirements for the Board to provide notice of any failure of a stockholder to satisfy these information requirements and a time period to cure such deficiencies.

Article II, Section 2.5 of the Amended Bylaws has been revised to generally replicate the language in Article X.F of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Article II, Section 2.5 of the Amended Bylaws generally provides that a stockholder can nominate candidates for election to the Company’s board of directors if such nominations are made in writing to the Company not more than 60 days nor fewer than 14 days before any meeting of the stockholders called for the election of directors. Each such written nomination must include (a) the name, age, business address and, if known, residence address of each nominee proposed; (b) the principal occupation or employment of each such nominee for the past five years; and (c) the number of shares of stock of the Company beneficially owned by each such nominee and by the nominating stockholder. The Chairman of the meeting may, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with these requirements, and if so determined, the Chairman will declare to the meeting that the defective nomination will be disregarded.
The foregoing description of the Amended Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.
